Ankoku Kishi Monogatari (WN)

BGM

And then, she took out her scythe.

「NOW PREPARE YOURSELVES, UGLY BI*TCHES! THE DESPAIRED LOOK ON YOUR FACES TRULY SUIT YOU BEST! AND THAT WILL BE THE LAST EXPRESSION YOU MAKE IN YOUR LIFE!!」

「WHA?!!!!」

Muse retreated in fear while the beauties all raised a shrill scream once they noticed that Shishou was prepared to kill them all. Some of them took out their weapons in panic.

「W-WAIT A MINUTE, SHISHOU!! PLEASE REMEMBER THAT MASTER KUROKI TOLD YOU TO STAY QUIET UNTIL THE END!!」

I tried to stop Shishou in a hurry.

「What are you talking about, Polen? The battle ended with Kuroki's victory. Even Muse herself admitted that fact.」

Ah? SHE WAS RIGHT!!

Though I certainly hate those beauties with nasty personalities, it didn't mean that I wanted them dead.

What should I do now? Someone tell me!

With no one to stop Shishou, this ship would fill up with headless corpses in a few minutes.

The beauties' faces were dyed with fear as Shishou approached them with her scythe.

「Stop right there!!!」

Suddenly, someone's voice could be heard. And by the next moment, the owner of that voice appeared before us.

The moment I saw that person, I was captivated, because the person before us was an extremely beautiful Goddess.

Before we knew it, another flying ship had parked beside ours and the Goddess was looking at us from its deck.

Long, blonde hair that looked like it was exuding a pale bright light, almost transparent, snow-white skin. Despite having such huge boobs that were very obvious even from her attire, her waist was really slim. The molding of her face was perfect, and a powerful light dwelled in her eyes.

A moment was all I needed to understand that she had such an overwhelming presence. Even the other beauties' attention had moved towards the Goddess. She dominated the ship the moment she appeared.

Who is she, I wonder?

「… Rena-sama.」

One of the beauties muttered.

「IT'S RENA-SAMA! RENA-SAMA HAS COME!!」

「W-WE'RE SAVED, RENA-SAMA CAME TO SAVE US!!」

「RENA-SAMA! RENA-SAMA!!」

「RENA-SAMA HAS COME!! VICTORY IS OURS!!」

The beauties raised a cheer.

Is this Rena, the Goddess of Wisdom and Victory? This is my first time seeing her.

One of the three most beautiful Goddesses in the world, Alphos-sama’s little sister. Sure enough, her beauty didn't betray the rumors.

That Goddess then jumped to our ship.

「WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, RENA?! EVEN IF IT'S YOU, DON'T THINK THAT YOU CAN STOP ME!!!」

Shishou glared at Rena as she spoke. For some reason, upon a closer look, I realized that Rena's and Shishou's faces resembled each other.

「Sorry but, can you be quiet for a little bit, Kuna?」

Rena pointed her palm toward Shishou.

That moment, Shishou suddenly fell on her knees.

「Y– Kuna's body… Can't…」

Thus, Rena stopped Shishou with ease.

「Sealing your movements is childsplay for me, the real one!! Now Kuna, be a good girl for a while please!!」

Rena spoke with a triumphant look on her face.

Such an amazing Goddess. She sealed Shishou's movement in just a second.

「RENA-SAMA!! THOSE DAEMONS ARE COMING!!」

Rena's valkyrie warned her master.

When I looked back, I saw daemons riding wyverns coming in our direction.

「Calm down, we can't afford to act recklessly in this situation, Nier. Just let them land on the deck of the ship.」

The valkyries looked even more surprised upon hearing Rena's remark.

That's a relief, she had no intention to turn this into an all out battle.

「Your Highness―― YOUR HIGHNESS POLEN――!!!」

The daemons landed on the ship.

「YOUR HIGHNESS, ARE YOU OKAY?!!!」

The female daemon, who stood as their leader, kneeled before me.

「It's okay Guno, they won't attack us as long as we don't attack them. Be a good girl for now.」

Rena said so as she glared at the daemon.

「How did you know my name? But, we also can't act recklessly with Her Highness here…」

The daemon seemed to be really surprised since Rena knew her name.

— How did Rena know the daemon's name?

「RENA! ALPHOS! ALPHOS IS–」

Muse was clinging onto Rena's toga. Alphos-sama had gotten blown away yet again, his body was fluttering in the air like foliage in the middle of a giant storm. Master Kuroki who had turned into that Giant Black Dragon was apparently toying with Alphos-sama.

「I… I never knew… I never knew that the Dark Knight was hiding this kind of strength all along…」

Muse spoke as she cried.

I'm really surprised too. I mean, now that this power has been revealed, I understood the reason why Shishou had never done anything from the beginning of the duel. I mean, Master Kuroki could win so easily if he used this power from the very beginning.

「It's because he has been suppressing that power all along, Muse… He was worried about other people’s safety. But, to think that it's this powerful. We have to stop him… Good grief, Alphos and the trouble that he always causes in his wake.」

Rena heaved a sigh as she spoke.

「What are you trying to do… Rena. Even though Kuroki has finally unleashed his true power…  Are you planning to be a hindrance…」

Shishou spoke to Rena with a wry smile on her face.

「Well sure, I also want to keep looking at him in his most powerful state. But, that will come with the area turning into a land of death due to the sheer destruction he can do. That's the one thing I don't want to see, that's why we have to stop him.」

Rena was smiling as she looked at Master Kuroki.

「NO RENA-SAMA! YOU MUSTN'T GET ANY CLOSER TO THAT MONSTER! WE CAN’T STOP IT! WE HAVE TO ESCAPE FROM THIS PLACE IMMEDIATELY!」

The valkyrie tried to stop Rena.

Yes, that was too reckless indeed. His roar alone was enough to drive fear into my heart. Some of the beauties even fell to their rear due to the fear, some even fainting immediately.

As if that wasn't bad enough, some of them were leaking from both ends. To be honest, I also peed my pants a little. That's why I knew that it was impossible to stop the current Master.

「What are you talking about, Nier? I'm the only one capable of stopping him! Alphos' North Wind can't do anything to him! The only one that can stop him is the sun, ME! Now watch me」

Rena jumped off the ship as she said so. She flew amidst the black storm, and stood in front of Master Kuroki as if protecting Alphos-sama who just got blasted to the ground.

「STOP!! THAT'S TOO RECKLESS!!」

The female daemons shouted.

Rena's figure looked like a speck of dust compared to Master Kuroki, who had transformed into a giant dragon. Anyone who saw that thought that Rena was too reckless.

But, at that very moment, Rena's body shone like the sun.

Suddenly, the giant dragon stopped moving.

It was truly an unbelieveable spectacle.

「No way… The dragon has… calmed down…」

One of the beauties muttered.

It was truly an unbelievable spectacle.

Master Kuroki's movements became slower and slower as Rena's body shone brighter and brighter. The dragon's roar became smaller and smaller till it vanished altogether.

「AAAAH!! THE DRAGON! THE DRAGON HAS CALMED DOWN!」

「Amazing… Rena-sama has actually… managed to appease that terrifying dragon…」

「JUST LIKE A SUN!! TRULY THE GODDESS OF LIGHT!!!」

「How majestic…」

「Such a beautiful light… She braved the danger just to save Alphos-sama.」

「AAAH!! RENA-SAMA!! RENA-SAMA!!!」

The beauties were so moved by this spectacle, some even cried.

Well yeah, she was amazing. She managed to appease Master Kuroki who turned into a giant dragon with her tiny body.

Didn't she feel scared at all?

「W-W-WHAT'S THE MEANING OF THIS!? HOW CAN SHE APPEASE HIS EXCELLENCY?!!!」

Poh-chan shouted with shock.

Yeah, I feel the same way as her. I mean, she actually managed to stop Master Kuroki's rampage.

「There's nothing strange about this… She just awakened another powerful instinct dwelling in Kuroki, an instinct that's different from the destructive impulse of the dragons… It should be possible for Rena.」

Kuna-shishou spoke as she gasped for breath. It seems she could barely move her body.

But, what is the other powerful instinct she’s talking about?

Poh-chan seemed to be as puzzled as me.

「Nevertheless… That Rena… How dare you disturb Kuroki's most brilliant moment…」

Kuna-shishou seemed to be really vexed. But honestly, I'm glad that Rena managed to stop Master Kuroki. I mean, turning this entire region into a death zone was a bit over the top.

The Black Dragon's body got wrapped by black flame, and shrunk down. The black flame that covered the sky had also converged back into Master Kuroki, restoring the azure blue sky. And when all the black flame had vanished, the one who remained under the azure sky was the Dark Knight and the Goddess of Light.

Master Kuroki and Rena then descended to the ground. Right below them was the figure of the beaten up Alphos-sama.

The defeated Holy Knight, and then the Dark Knight who looked down on him.

That moment, no one doubted who was the victor.
