Chapter 188: You spoke wrongly, so you must die

Like a sharp sword, it tore through the white curtain, instantly restoring his clear vision.

A black, hairy tail enlarged in his pupils.

Almost reflexively, Charlotte leaned to the side, avoiding the spear-like thrust aimed at his heart, which instead pierced through his right chest and passed through.

The intense pain instantly woke him up, and he raised his sword and sliced at the tail.

The Judgment Sword cut through it like a hot knife through butter, almost effortlessly severing the tail and leaving half of it inside his body.

"How is this possible!"

Amos was shocked. Ignoring the intense pain from his severed tail, he once again opened his mouth to unleash the ghostly sound attack, while secretly activating the protective enchantment on his body.

"System, increase the volume. I'm going to charge!"

Charlotte's gaze became extremely calm and focused, unaffected by the half-tail stuck in his chest. The pain made him even more alert.

The feeling of being a Blood Battle Adjudicator in the mysterious space made him gradually excited.

The constant sound of "ding, ding" ringing in his mind completely drowned out the ghostly sound, allowing him to be completely unaffected.

Charlotte moved again, dodging a fireball that was heading towards him, and appeared behind Amos. He raised his hand and launched a sword strike.

Bang!

The magic shield trembled, and Charlotte was once again flung backward.

But this time, he didn't stop.

Just as his figure dissipated from being flung backward, he appeared next to Amos again, launching a series of attacks!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Charlotte's elusive figure kept appearing around Amos, striking with swift sword blows!

Spinning slash!

Dual combo!

Triple combo!

His figure was repeatedly repelled by the shield enchantment, but he kept charging like an unstoppable force.

Amos's face turned pale, unable to conceal his fear.

A level four magic shield could only withstand three charges from Charlotte before shattering.

In just a few minutes, he had already expended ten shield enchantments.

And now, he only had two shield enchantments left in his hand.

What made him even more anxious was that Charlotte completely ignored the ghostly voice, as if he had developed immunity after being struck by his tail.

Charlotte's agility was too elusive, and his speed was astonishing.

So even though Amos held a stack of thick magic spells in his hand, he couldn't land a single hit on him.

A level four succubus being relentlessly slashed by a mid-level knight was a fighting style he had never encountered before.

Amos also feared the black longsword in Charlotte's hand.

That was undoubtedly a top-tier divine weapon, with additional armor-piercing enchantments. Otherwise, how could a mid-level knight effortlessly break through a fourth-tier magic shield with just a couple of strikes?

"Rest in peace, go to hell. Ruth is mine. Since you didn't touch her, she is still my perfect crucible for breaking through to Level Five..." Amos brushed off the dirt on his body and turned to leave.

However, as he turned around, a sword was already pointed at his throat. The icy touch of the sword made him freeze, and the unmistakable sharpness had already cut through his skin.

"You... how can you still be alive!"

Amos looked at Charlotte, whose clothes were tattered and bloody, with a mix of fear and confusion in his eyes.

"Ruth is not mine, and not yours either. You spoke wrongly, so you must die." Charlotte grinned, revealing eight white teeth.

Before Amos could speak, the sword swung, and a head flew high in the air.

Decapitation was the best method of killing that Charlotte learned in the mysterious space.

Even if it was a zombie, cutting off the head meant death.

Amos's face still held a look of shock, unwillingness, and despair. His head fell into the bonfire, and the flames grew even fiercer.

With the sword planted in the ground, Charlotte barely stood up and took out several bottles of potions from his spatial ring. He trembled as he poured them onto the wounds on his chest, slightly easing the intense pain and bringing back some clarity to his fading consciousness.

Then he took two bottles of stamina potions to restore some energy.

The three meteorites that had fallen had caused a widespread explosion. He was trapped by the vines and could only retreat to the edge, so he suffered quite serious injuries.

The powerful blast wave had damaged his internal organs, and he had no idea how many bones in his body had been broken.

Taking advantage of the explosion and the cover of flames, he circled to Amos's back and gave him a fatal blow when he least expected it.

But being severely injured, he was already at his limit.

"As a noble of the Succubus clan, you should have many treasures on you, right?" Charlotte crouched down, and took the stack of necromancy cards firmly clutched in Amos's hand, consisting of more than a dozen cards, mostly third-level spells, and two Ice Seal spell cards.

All the good stuff was consumed in the previous battle with him, and that meant money.

Amos didn't have a money pouch on him, but he wore a sapphire ring on his left hand.

Charlotte took off the sapphire space ring, then walked about ten meters away and took out a third-level Fireball spell card.

The next moment, accompanied by a deafening explosion, Amos's body was turned into ashes in the bright flames.

Charlotte cautiously checked once again, picked up his rolling pin, and only then did he limp away.

Not long after, several scavengers arrived at the scene. Aside from seeing the mess around, they found nothing and left cursing.

It took Charlotte a full hour to return to the medical clinic. The excessive blood loss and multiple fractures in his body made him almost collapse several times, relying solely on his willpower to keep going.

On the way, he encountered a bandit trying to take advantage of the situation and rob him, but he took him down with a Fireball spell card.

After hesitating for a while in front of the clinic's door, Charlotte glanced at the slightly open window on the second floor and stomped his foot before leaping up.

He managed to grab onto the window frame, but he struggled to climb in with his last ounce of strength, causing the wounds that had already stopped bleeding to reopen, with blood flowing all over the floor.

This severe pain almost made Charlotte lose consciousness.

No, he couldn't sleep yet. He had to get Vivian or Kasha to treat him.

But Vivian should still be in the alchemy room downstairs. With her obedient and compliant nature, even if he shouted himself hoarse, she would probably take him as a fake bad guy.

"Meow?"

At that moment, Anna appeared at the door, tilting her head and looking at him.

Charlotte's eyes lit up, and using the last bit of strength he had, he said, "Anna, go call Vivian or Kasha to save me..."

Before he finished speaking, his head tilted, and he lost consciousness.
