The story of the black silk female knight

"Come on, you ignorant, filthy, lowly, and despicable green-skinned beast, cherish the last few breaths you have left! I'm about to cut you down with my sword!"

"...You're the foolish one, aren't you, human?"

The beast-slaying killer did not mock Valensa's arrogance. It first observed her cautiously for a moment before releasing an even stronger killing intent:

"You had multiple injuries and a lot of bleeding before. Even if your self-healing ability is stronger than other humans, you should be in very bad condition right now... You can barely stand up, yet you dare to say such things?"

"My mouth is on my face, I can say whatever I want!"

Valensa, however, continued to mock:

"If you really think I'm so weak, then come and attack!"

"..."

The beast slayer fell silent, then the Dragon Fang short sword flashed with a series of cold lights:

"Then as you wish."

Brush brush.

Puff puff.

In an instant, Valensa suffered three more new wounds, bleeding profusely.

Valensa clenched her teeth in pain, her whole body trembled, and her face was deathly pale; she looked like she was about to die.

The only thing that's still stubborn is his mouth; he can even be sarcastic.

"That's it? This isn't even enough to tickle me... Come on, keep going... uh."

Brush brush.

The Beast Slayer granted Valensa's wish.

It was extremely cautious; to avoid triggering the scroll and to prevent Valensa from using her attacks to counter its calculations, each sword strike was merely a light slash and a shallow thrust, never using a fatal attack.

Valensa's body was covered in wounds, with hardly any intact parts left, yet she continued to mock and ridicule the beast assassin.

The Beast Slayer completely ignored Valensa's words, remaining calm and in control of the offensive rhythm.

It saw no chance that Valensa could turn the tide. Although it was somewhat surprised that Valensa was so resilient, it had no doubt that victory would ultimately belong to it.

however……

"How can it be??"

After piercing Valensa's black stockings with the tip of his sword once again, the Beast Slayer froze.

Its face was full of disbelief, and its mouth moved as if it wanted to say something, but it couldn't make a sound.

puff!

Amidst the splatter of blood, Belloc's body suddenly split open, throwing out a small, thin figure that struggled on the ground for a few moments before becoming completely still.

And beneath the tear in Valensa's black stockings, a golden magic card was revealed...

Chapter 154 Escape

That kind of plot does indeed appear in some adventure novels.

The protagonist can't win against powerful enemies no matter what he does, and can only persuade them with his words.

But Tia never believed in such plots, so she never expected that her recounting of history would change the mind of the beast killer.

As she herself stated, her goal from the beginning was to buy time.

To help her understand Valencia's plan and buy her time to cooperate.

Just like when she was a child, she could often read a book while chatting nonsense with Valensa at the same time. Multitasking is a skill that Tia has long mastered.

While she was telling history to the beast killer, she was also constantly reflecting on it herself.

What exactly is Valensa's plan?

It's obvious that Valensa never expected to be attacked by the Wild Beast Killer at the end of the assessment, and her plan was something she came up with on the spot.

The most important clue should be found in those few sentences.

Those few sentences, which seemed like Valensa was giving up on herself, were actually hints to Tia about what she should do.

Upon closer examination, those sentences can be roughly divided into two parts.

The second part is all flirting, which can be ignored for now... These are probably just Valensa pretending to be crazy to fool that beast.

The focus is on the first part.

Valensa revealed her ability, saying she has a special skill that can deflect attacks, but it is difficult to use because the Beast Slayer never makes fatal attacks.

Revealing one's abilities to an enemy who could kill them during battle would be incredibly foolish, so Valensa's words were definitely not meant for the Beast Slayer, but rather as a reminder to herself.

Once Tia regained her composure and rekindled her fighting spirit, she immediately understood this and continued to perform well, quickly grasping Valensa's intentions.

Valensa was trying to tell herself that she needed the ability of the Beast Slayer to attack her vitals and then launch a counterattack to turn the tide of the battle.

Valencia couldn't do that, but I could.

Using the golden card, he consumed all his magic and mental energy in one go, allowing him to barely use a little bit of the ability that was originally only available at the Star-level while still in his Pearl form.

Inherited secret techniques. Link magic. Spatial link.

Link any space within five meters to the inside of the gold card.

By connecting the golden card with Valencia's heart and then having the Beast Slayer attack the card, it's equivalent to the Beast Slayer launching an absolutely fatal blow against Valencia.

That way, Valensa could use her special abilities to turn the tables on her opponent, and perhaps even trigger a scroll that would bring the teachers to her rescue.

But... what about Valensa herself?

Her heart could be pierced by a sword because it's connected to the card... Could it be that she's trying to sacrifice her own life to protect herself?

Tia had this thought, and even considered abandoning the plan because of it.

Fortunately, she was quick-witted and soon remembered something else.

In the second trial room, Valencia was nearly bitten on the leg by the rainbow three-headed snake during her battle with it.

It had actually bitten her, but at that moment, Valensa's leg seemed to vanish like mist, and the snake's head missed its target.

If this is also one of Valensa's special abilities, and it's used in conjunction with that attack reflection technique...

Tia finally understood Valensa's plan completely.

So they began to cooperate.

While telling the story to the Beast Slayer, Tia had already secretly used a secret technique to link Valensa's heart to the golden card.

While helping Valensa up, she secretly slipped the gold card to Valensa.

Then Valencia launched a sarcastic attack, luring the Beast Slayer to keep attacking her. The moment the golden card was hit, she launched a counterattack, ending the battle in one move.

The plan has now succeeded.

The skinny, green-skinned, lizard-headed figure that fell out of Belloc's corpse was undoubtedly the real Beast Slayer, now completely lifeless.

Kotia, however, was too preoccupied with the success of her plan to celebrate; she was almost in tears.

“You idiot!!”

She held Valensa in her arms and frantically tried various methods to stop the bleeding:

"Why didn't you just use a card to block its attack? You had to let it attack on its own... Look at all these injuries you've sustained... Hmph, I'm not worried at all!"

Tick.

Tia couldn't hold back any longer, and a tear fell onto Valensa's face.

Valensa's face had long since lost its color, and her lips were very pale.

But she still managed a smile, jokingly comforting Tia:

"You really think highly of me... That's a peak-level Lighthouse expert who doesn't hold back at all. How could I possibly see the trajectory of its sword strike? I can only hide the card in my black stockings and try my luck..."

I just didn't expect my luck to be so bad... I only succeeded after taking so many sword blows..."

As she spoke, Valensa seemed to have lost the strength to speak. Her mouth moved slightly, and her eyelids grew heavier and heavier. She was about to lose consciousness.

"Hey!"

Tia was terrified:

"You're not allowed to fall asleep! No, no, no!"

Unfortunately, human willpower has its limits. Valensa was already covered in wounds and had lost too much blood. The final atomization of her body completely exhausted her mental energy, and she could no longer hold on.

"...No, we can't dawdle any longer!"

Tia had originally planned to go ahead and check the finish line, which was just around the corner, to see if the examiner could contact the outside world for help.

But now she can't wait any longer.

She gritted her teeth, a glint of light flashing in her crimson eyes, and picked up the Dragon Fang short sword.

Then, grip the hilt of the sword in reverse and point the blade at your chest.

He stabbed her hard.

puff.

Bang.

The sword tip pierced Tia's body about half a centimeter, and blood was already flowing out. Only then was the scroll's emergency protection function activated, generating an arcane shield that deflected the Dragon Fang Short Sword.

"This...should be enough, right?"

Tia, who had already exhausted her magic and spirit by using the secret technique, could no longer hold on and fainted along with Valensa, who had already lost consciousness.

. . . . .

After an unknown amount of time, Valensa regained consciousness from her dazed state and darkness.

She felt very warm all around, as if she were basking in the sun or soaking in a hot spring; in short, it was very comfortable.

The back of her neck felt very comfortable, as if there were two smooth and elastic pillows supporting her body.

"Tia...Tia? You seem to have grown again..."

Mumbled something in her sleep, and Valensa opened her eyes with some difficulty, looking around.

"This is... Sun Dew Holy Water? Am I out of danger? This is the Sun Church in the royal capital, and I'm recovering by soaking in Sun Dew Holy Water?"

She quickly figured out her current situation, but she was still a little confused... why Tia behind her hadn't said anything yet.

"Tia, what's wrong with you... uh."

So Valensa turned around to ask, but her expression immediately froze:

"Mei... Sister Melina?"

Chapter 155 He had already become a legend of the academy even before enrolling.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, young lady."

Melina's expression was completely unreadable, and her voice was very calm:

"The first person you saw after you woke up from your serious injuries was me."

"Uh... Melina, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I be disappointed? It's clearly a pleasant surprise!"

Valensa was indeed somewhat surprised, but she reacted quickly.

She immediately snuggled into Melina's arms, acting all cute and affectionate, her face full of enjoyment.

"I was wondering why I slept so comfortably; it turns out Melina was holding me... Tia is also very well-developed, but she's still not as comfortable as Melina~~"

"Hmm~~"

Melina let out a soft moan, seemingly tickled by Valensa's sudden movement.

But instead of pushing Valensa away, she reached out and gently embraced her, adjusting their positions to make them fit together better.

Valensa closed her eyes comfortably, seemingly intending to take a nap.

But Melina's warm, moist voice soon rang in her ears:
