The Noble Lady of Lust
Chapter 199: Persecution

Chapter 199: Persecution

Swoosh! swish! swoosh!

While I eliminated the mage who seemed to be the most powerful in the area, it was not time to celebrate. For, for that very reason, I had now become a more prominent target. Three flashes emerged in the air, each aimed directly at me.

I identified the elements instantly: water, earth and ice. A deadly combination, designed to cover all my possible escape routes.

I acted before the situation overwhelmed me. I activated "Eyes of Lust," analyzing the magical structure of the water spell.

"Bang!"

With my pre-recorded magic I quickly threw A piece of crystal at high speed shot out from my finger, decomposing the macuic water spell into an explosion of steam.

The other two... Although I thought they were magics, when I activated my eyes and saw them in detail I noticed that they were arrows imbued and empowered with some elemental art.

Without time to think more, they arrived almost simultaneously. I reinforced my hands with layers of the crystal element, quickly using my affinity for light.

Thud!,Thud!

I managed to deflect both just at the last moment. The impact reverberated through my arms, leaving my muscles numb. Those guys were powerful, of about five metamorphoses.

I decided to stop drawing attention to myself and backed up a bit, along with my dopelganger who was covering me, blending in with the other mercenaries to take a breather, not caring about those guys who attacked me.

Unlike the center, where the real army was, this place, where the mercenaries were fighting, had no plans or strategies. Just pure survival.

It was a raw battle. Now my brain was beginning to understand clearly what the weight of a war was and how lives fall easily.

You don’t even have time to understand if the one you killed deserved it or not. There is no time to make those conscious decisions here.

Luckily, our side seemed more numerous, both in army and mercenaries, as we were not the only groups that had come as reinforcements to this front and there were many more human mercenaries than demonic ones.

"haaaa..."

Well, now that I backed off from being a priority I finally managed to calm down and regain my composure. to begin with, there was no need for me to be active in this war. What happened before was just me trying to survive.

I didn’t have to act unless the situation compelled me, as before I had foolishly gone ahead, concentrating only on my purpose.

I still kept my purpose in mind, but first I had to stay alive, I couldn’t lose focus or it would be the end of me. With my senses sharpened, I braced myself for anything, but just at that moment....

Buuuuuoooooo!

"Retreat!!!!"

What sounded like a retreat signal from the demons rang out, and I heard many of them shout the same thing.

Finally, this gave me scope to understand things more clearly since I arrived on this battlefront.

And, as the rumors said, the humans seemed especially bent on this war. You could see in whoever was leading this front and how they were handling things, how determined they were.

I didn’t know exactly how long they had fought before we arrived, but, from the time I looked down from the top of the mountain until we arrived, it had been about an hour of running.

The humans seemed especially focused, not caring about the losses, causing the demons to finally acknowledge their defeat in this battle and retreat.

Now that I didn’t have to worry about an attack from the opposing side, I finally had time to resume my original plan, I certainly couldn’t waste this opportunity.

I had to take advantage of the fact that things were flowing in my favor. Somehow, I feel that being close to William would have passive advantages, and events were lining up, allowing me to accomplish things more smoothly than even being optimistic I thought.

I couldn’t foolishly risk it, while this was a golden opportunity, running without thinking about it would be dangerous. But from what I could see there was a good chance that I wouldn’t have to take a big risk....

"Attack! Don’t let them escape!"

"Right!"

for a moment I thought I had to let this opportunity go, but the captain general who was the highest authority here , met my expectations, now I didn’t have to risk anything and I could take advantage of the chaos of the chase.

It seemed that it was time for a hunt. While it is not at all pleasant to be in a war and kill people, if it was for my goals it was necessary I would not hesitate.

I know that those who hesitate in this world die, and I will not be a pushover who dies, not when I knew that these situations would occur more than once in the future, and my girls were waiting for me at home.

Those who were not tired began to run after the demonic army. I could see how what looked like the mounted squadron, who were the fastest, decimated the fleeing demons.

The same was happening with the faster people; they mercilessly slashed or threw magic at the backs of the demons.

It was not a cheerful scene, let alone a satisfying one. The stifling air of war and the smell of blood made me nauseous and dizzy, but I still kept running forward.

Now that my life was not in danger, I simply ran, looking for the opportunity I was waiting for.

My doppelgänger lagged behind; he didn’t run as fast. Not because he couldn’t, but because it wasn’t necessary. If things turned out well, from now on we would work separately.

After several minutes of running, we finally reached what looked like the beginning of a wooded territory.

From the looks of it, the main ones of the demon army were following the main paved path through the forest, while others, perhaps hoping to lose the knights and mounted soldiers, were going in from the sides, which were dense woods.

After all, everyone was desperately retreating, and the smoothed path was only enough for a hundred men to pass at a time.

And with thousands running, this seemed inevitable even for the infantry of the demon army. They had no choice but to scatter.

Their leader was not orderly handling the retreat, and the lower ranks of the army had to survive as best they could, not to mention the demon mercenaries who only came for the money.

..

"there’s one, perfect!"

Among the demons there was a particular race that wore masks. One might think that it was just any demon wearing a mask, but I knew that these were a peculiar race that would help me in my goal, I had them in mind since I found out in the bar that there was a war in progress.

Finally, I was close enough to one that was going into the forest and I noticed that it also had four metamorphoses. It perfectly fulfilled everything I needed.

Now, in this chaotic situation I needed to be quick and I couldn’t hesitate at any moment. I was on a tightrope where the slightest mistake could lead to my

I was already prepared, it took my doppelgänger more than a day to complete that magic space circle and it was not only to extend the scope of the scroll; the magic circle had three functions, and now, it was time to test the second function, which was accompanied by the help of the twins.

I took a red gemstone from my storage bag and immediately, with the resonance activated, I transmitted my intentions. Seconds later I felt the connection.

-------------------------------------

Strength: [183 + 183 + 39] 405

Mana: [190 + 187 + 180] 557

Agility: [175 + 174 + 50] 399

Defense: [89 + 89 + 31] 209

Vitality: [179 + 178 + 49] 406

--------------------------------------

I immediately felt stronger: Selene’s stats, which were almost identical to mine, and Eira’s, which were just beginning to sync up, were adding to mine.

"Art of Lust, Fifth Stance: Tempting Torrent."

I immediately circulated the attack art, before I had used it to imbue a spear now it was as if I was the spear, after all, to the art of lust is a spear art not melee, however, the more I practiced and understood it, I realized it was a more flexible hybrid art than I thought, something rarely found in arts, which always has a predisposition to a weapon and Element.

The demon was about a hundred meters in front of me, but this attack stance is special because the more momentum you build up, the more powerful it is.

Using it directly on my body instead of a weapon, it is extremely useful for shortening distances instantly. Putting a large amount of mana to make it more effective, along with lightning and light mana, which are two especially fast elements, the result of all that was:

Boom!!!

"Uggh!!!"

With an explosive roar originating from my feet, before anyone could notice anything, I was already on the demon’s back, piercing its back with my claws. Although some of the momentum was sapped by the impact, I didn’t stop.

I kept moving, dodged the large trees in the way and continued forward. The demons were busy running to pay attention to me.

As I ran and carried him, the guy squirmed a little at the unexpected pain, it seemed he didn’t understand what was happening all of a sudden and couldn’t say anything, it was too late for him.

This posture of the "Art of Lust" is highly destructive. Immediately, the energy, light and lightning mana I fed it with began to consume him from the point of impact.

If I didn’t act fast, it would turn him into ashes, just like the demon I killed at the academy.

I stopped for a moment in a relatively covered spot before it disintegrated and placed a hand on its head.
