Can you withstand the power of this sword strike, which has been used twice in the game?

"what?"

Suddenly, the hero noticed some noise.

Karen stopped in her tracks: "There are demons approaching."

Even with her magic power nearly depleted, it didn't prevent her from spotting enemies 500 meters away.

The other person was wearing camouflage clothing and was slowly approaching the four of them.

[The Brave One: Should we run?]

Hero of the Eyes: It's too late. The demons surrounding us can catch up with us.

At this moment, Karen was carrying the exhausted Elsa on her back. She didn't let anyone else carry her because she was worried about a sudden battle.

Now, the situation they feared has come to pass.

[Heroic Listener: I haven't seen any of these things along the way, where did they come from?]

Wasn't it said that all the demons in this area had been wiped out?

Hero of the Eyes: Just because the demons have been cleared doesn't mean they won't move.

I suspect that the enemy also has demons capable of reconnaissance, and they decided to attack because they discovered that we had "wounded" soldiers.

Hero of Pain: I never... I never expected this! We would actually become the targets of an ambush! This hurts so much!!

The brave Lizard looked at the message, silently took out her water pouch from her waist, and gulped down a few mouthfuls. Part Two

Now that Karen doesn't have much fighting ability, she'll definitely need to "talk" more.

Her continuous use of skills has a side effect, which is... silk.

My throat feels like it's on fire.

Her inability to speak is a natural limitation, so her support and attack abilities are significantly stronger than those of conventional support and mage classes.

Because it's so powerful, it naturally comes with some limitations that prevent skills from being used continuously. Umbrella

For example, if she uses more than a dozen spells in one go, she will have to stop and rest because her throat hurts so much before she can kill all the enemies.

So when she anticipates needing to use magic frequently, she will first drink water to moisten her throat.

[Hero of Hearing: Here we come!]

In reality, the enemy was still quite far away, and the area around them could be described as calm and peaceful.

But from Karen's perspective, the enemy was moving at full speed close to the ground.

【Hero of the Eyes: Thirteen demons, all of whom carry shields and weapons, and five of them wear leather armor.】

To the southwest, the five-headed demons are 400 meters away; to the southeast, the three-headed demons are 400 meters away; to the north, the three-headed demons are 300 meters away; and there are still four demons that have not moved.

Hearing the brave warrior's words: I'll handle the three-headed beast in the north!

Upon hearing this, the brave warrior quickly moved to the position to meet the attack, then took out a black ribbon from his pocket and tied it over his eyes.

His hearing allows him to clearly distinguish the distance and movements of the enemy, while his eyes are a useless burden that distracts him.

A flash of white light, and two long swords appeared in the hands of the Hero.

Like Karen, he also possessed support abilities but chose the warrior path.

He didn't want to be helpless in battle; he had to protect his own life!

The hero of pain stands in the southeast, while the hero of narrative stands in the southwest.

It seems that the hero is the one who fought against the most enemies.

Suddenly, Elsa realized something: "Is there an enemy...?"

The enemy was almost in her face before she finally reacted.

"Hmm, but it's okay, leave it to us," Karen said softly.

At this moment, the brave warrior had already locked onto the three approaching enemies, and the whole world returned to calm, with only the sound of the three demons' footsteps, heartbeats, and the wind whistling as they moved...

...Ai

On one side was a battlefield fraught with danger, while on the other side, it was also morning, and An Yi was leisurely getting up.

He had actually woken up once around six or seven o'clock, but after confirming that Lycorina hadn't run into his bed, he went back to sleep.

I lay there for another three hours, and it was almost ten o'clock.

An Yi didn't wake up again until she heard a loud knocking on the door.

At the same time, Annie's voice came through;

"Anyi! Aren't you getting up yet?! Her Highness the Saintess is going back!" she shouted.

Beside Anne, Lycorina smiled broadly.

"It's almost lunchtime, and I can't believe An Yi still hasn't gotten up."

“That’s how Annie is. If she doesn’t have anything to do, she’ll sleep until lunchtime,” Annie sighed with a smile.

"Oh right, you didn't call him when we were having breakfast, did you? I don't think you called me either?" Lycorina suddenly remembered this.

“Yes, that’s our family’s habit. We eat when we can get up, and if we can’t, we don’t,” Annie said.

Lycorina: "This..."

“It’s a bit strange, isn’t it?” Annie chuckled. “Because something happened when I was little that made me get a really bad scolding from Annie.”

Oh, it's because Dad got a severe scolding from An Yi.

I think it was when An Yi was ten years old. At that time, because she was starting to grow, her father made An Yi get up very early every day to practice swordsmanship.

"Actually, I've been practicing swordsmanship for many years, but the intensity of my training was a bit too high when I was ten. I slept very late and got up very early every day, which probably wore down An Yi's enthusiasm."

An Yi believes that rest time should not be sacrificed for training, because rest is also very important.

"But Dad thinks that An Yi must be trying to be lazy. He thinks that if you want to grow into a real man, you can't have such lazy thoughts."

So Dad increased the training intensity, saying that a real man must undergo rigorous training in order to protect everything he wants to protect!

Then……"

"And then...?" Lycorina's interest was piqued.

Anne lowered her voice, unable to suppress a chuckle as she covered her mouth: "Then, in a fit of anger, Annie used the sword techniques her father taught her to defeat her father during training, and incidentally gave him a beating with a wooden sword."

At the time, none of us knew that when Dad came back, his face was covered in bruises, which terrified the three of us. Then, that day, An Yi threw a tantrum and ran away from home.

We thought it was some kind of powerful human trafficker who beat up Dad and kidnapped Annie.

“We asked Dad what happened, but he wouldn’t tell us because he felt ashamed.”

It wasn't until the villagers went out at night with torches to look for him that they discovered An Yi, who was roasting several pikas on the edge of the forest.

When others asked him what had happened, he would say that he had gone out hunting, without giving any specific reason.

"It wasn't until he got home and his mother asked him what had happened that he told her he had beaten up his father and then run away."

At the time, Mom didn't know how to react because Dad had also locked himself in his room.

"In the end, An Yi made a request."

He said that he doesn't need to be woken up anymore, whether it's training or breakfast, he doesn't want to be denied the right to sleep in.

He said this was his home, not some other place outside. If he couldn't live comfortably at home, why didn't he leave?

Lycorina: "Leaving home at ten years old is way too early, isn't it?!"

Although only six years have passed since she turned ten, she knows that she certainly couldn't have done anything at ten.

Anne chuckled and sighed, "After all, he's An Yi. Maybe he really can survive on his own outside?"

But after that, my family stopped waking me and Annie up.

Mom and Dad thought An Yi made sense. At home, you should do whatever makes you comfortable. If you want to sleep in, then go ahead and sleep.

Of course, actually, An>§≤〇·｜〇腫^ZhuANQun: She rarely sleeps for long periods; she only sleeps until noon occasionally when she wants to relax.

"Now is the time to relax."

The door opened, and An Yi said calmly, having already changed her clothes.

"Ah..." Lycorina suddenly realized something, "I guess I shouldn't have disturbed An'i's sleep?"

“It doesn’t matter, I’ve slept long enough,” Annie said.

It's unreasonable for him to wake me up at six or seven in the morning when I want to rest, but now it's almost lunchtime, so it's unreasonable for him not to let others wake him up.

At the same time, Annie's gaze fell on Annie, who was wearing a light pink nightgown.

I brought almost no clothes with me when I moved to the city; I just wanted to buy new ones there.

The clothing style in the city is very different from that in the village; it's not unfashionable, but rather very stylish.

“Sister, this nightgown is so pretty,” An Yi suddenly said.

"Oh?" Annie was also taken aback, then smiled happily, "Thank you for the compliment~"

Lycorina: "Huh?! Anyi actually complimented someone else's clothes?!"

"What's wrong, An Yi! Are you still half asleep?!"

Annie: "Hmm? My little brother is usually very sweet-talking, so why does Your Highness find it strange?"

Lycorina: "Huh?!!"

Sweet talk?! She didn't even realize it!!

……

After seeing Lycorina off, Annie went to the succubus's shop once again.

Layton and Miluco didn't contact each other either; he came alone this time.

Unlike yesterday, the succubi weren't soliciting customers outside today; the door was half-closed, meaning they would receive customers who needed their services.

Soon, led by the succubi, An Yi met Mel once again.

Mel wasn't lying in bed today; instead, she greeted Annie at the door. An extra sofa had been set up in the room, and she stood behind Annie after Annie sat down.

“Shouldn’t we be talking from the back?” Annie said casually.
