Taming The Villainesses

(EP-38.1) #2

038 – Rival #2

Near the tavern.

In a quiet vacant lot where drunkards slept in thin hides, there were a lot of people gathered, shouting loudly.

Meanwhile, the two participants of a ‘competition’ were lightly warming up inside a makeshift stadium that had been formed.

“I remember the civil war five years ago. Didn’t we smash your Draco Family? Mirna Draco, didn’t you also run away back then?”

“Weren’t you the one who fled? Lioness girl, to think that you can distort even your most humiliating experience. You must have a very bad memory, don’t you?”

“What nonsense are you spouting now?”

After a moderate response, Elga clapped her hands in the air.

Then, between her palms, something like a giant iron pillar began to materialize, which soon took the form of a giant ax halberd.

Zuuuuuo-.

“This has been soaked in Draco’s blood. Even if you surrender and crawl between my legs, I won’t let you go~.”

Pung, pung-.

Elga spun the Halberd from side to side.

Seeing the heavy metal being handled like a chopstick, the observers were greatly surprised and unconsciously took a few steps back.

━Is that a Holy Weapon? Is she a Champion?

━Draco…. And Lioness. They seem to be people from Angmar. Are they the daughters of nobles?

People were slowly figuring out the identities of these two.

At this point, the fight could no longer be stopped…

I was on edge.

If those girls fought and got seriously injured or taken down, it might be a good thing for me, Theo Angmar.

And yet, I was just nervous for some reason.

… It was also true that the thought of Elga getting hurt was starting to creep in. I tried to avoid those kinds of feelings, but it wasn’t easy.

Just then, Elga chuckled.

“Hey, Theo, you will be the referee. You have a lot of experience arbitrating duels, right?”

“Ah, then, let us make Theo Gospel the observer and judge of this duel. The rules of the duel are….”

“Get rid of those frivolous things! Just ring the match bell already!”

Elga already seemed prepared to put her all into this fight. A while ago, she was making cute noises and shaking on the bed, yet the current Elga was like a completely different person.

At this point, I even wondered if what happened before was just my own imagination.

“Then-.”

I raised one hand high.

“Start-.”

And as it descended, Elga kicked off the ground, shooting towards Mirna.

She was very fast, totally unlike a person carrying a heavy ax. The distance between the two of them, which was almost 10m, got reduced in the blink of an eye.

“Goodbye, you id¡ot-!”

Elga swung the Halberd from the lower left to the upper right.

In the midst of numerous cuts, the blood-soaked Holy Weapon ‘Crusher’ sliced through the air with an ominous sound.

If that hit, the small Mirna Draco would be torn in half.

At this moment, a huge figure clad in black robes suddenly appeared and took the strike with their body.

Kwaang-. A sharp metallic noise sounded. They must have been wearing armor underneath.

“You dare block me?”

━…….

Elga seemed angry that her attack was stopped. She gritted her teeth and tightened her body.

“Did you know what would happen if you stopped me?”

Ujijik, chwaaa-

With those words, the body of the black-robed figure that blocked the attack was cut in half, rolling on the floor…

Kung, kung.

━Muu, their body got cut in half!

━Dead? They’re dead, just like that?

Seeing the body in pieces, the crowd shouted loudly and took a few more steps back.

Meanwhile, the faces of Elga and Mirna remained relaxed.

Mirna still had three more black-robed men, while Elga had an indomitable body and a huge halberd.

Jolgeurok. Jobok.

Soon, the two giants quickly approached Elga, each holding a spear and a sword.

“Sending them one by one, so annoying…!”

Being unable to move forward, Elga shouted in anger. Mirna, on the other hand, simply smirked behind her black fan.

“To let your minions do all the dirty work like a coward! Try fighting yourself!”

“Nope~. Alright, now go grab that girl and take the shoes off.”

Two black shadows rushed towards Elga at Mirna’s command.

Of course, Elga quickly swung her halberd as they came within range.

Huung, huung.

Chwaak, chwaaa-.

Elga’s halberd slashed down the heads of black-robed men attacking from her left and right, respectively.

Tolssok. Tolssok.

Their bodies were torn apart, leaving only Mirna and the last man behind. Yet, Mirna remained composed, not even taking a fighting stance.

“Once you go to the underworld, apologize to my ancestors, you wretched ƅitch!”

Huuuang.

Seeing the rushing Elga raise her weapon high, I couldn’t help but shout.

“The last one is not ordinary! Be careful!”

“What?”

“—It’s too late for that~.”

Elga’s halberd was already being thrust down vertically. To suddenly stop it, one would need considerable strength and agility.

Of course, Elga had enough of that strength and agility.

However…

“Heut-!”

Elga suddenly trembled, as if a needle had pierced her.

“Keuu, my waist…!”

With Elga being unable to control her own body, a momentary break was created, allowing the black-robed man standing behind Mirna Draco to grab Elga’s neck.

Kkwaaak.

“Heueuk-!!”

“Your movements are slow, Lioness girl. It looks like you’re bloated from licking Tarantera’s sweet ąss. Especially around that unruly chest~.”

“Keuu, you, bas†ard-!”

Of course, even if there was a slight mistake, Elga had lived through numerous difficult battles since childhood.

Lifting her leg in a very flexible motion, she smashed the black-robed figure’s head.

Paaang-!

With that, Elga was able to escape from the restraint and widened the distance.

“Damn it-. I was just about to crush you. You’re better than I thought… Well, this makes it more fun!”

Rubbing and straightening her neck, Elga’s opponent was reflected in her blue eyes.

Seuk.

Perhaps thanks to Elga’s kick, the black robe came off. At the same time, people began to gasp and started panicking.

━What in the world is that!?

━Is it… a skeleton…?

━No way, a walking corpse…?

That was right.

Seeing this, people finally realized the identity of the black-robed figures. All of Mirna Draco’s dragoons were undead!

They were living corpses…

And among them, the one that exuded the most sinister aura was a blue-eyed undead who survived to the very end.

━Bun’ yeuk’s An’ ha. Ket’v Jee.

When the blue-eyed undead opened his mouth and uttered a spell, the corpses that had just been cut down by Elga reattached themselves and rose up.

Eudeuk. Eudeuk. Ujijik. Ujok.

━Undead… They are summoned undead?

━Is that an Eldritch…? A high-ranking mage or necromancer that becomes undead….

Seeing this, Elga spat on the floor.

“Fųcking disgusting Draco bas†ards! Now I get it. Is that your father, Mirna Draco? You psychopathic ƅitch who made her own father work as an undead!!”

“…….”

Mirna Draco didn’t answer. A frown gradually appeared on her face, as if the previous cool expression was a lie.

Just like Aira, the contrast between the beautiful Mirna’s angry and normal demeanor was plain to see.

Somehow, the atmosphere became even more chilling…

Yet, Elga continued to shout, as if she didn’t care.

“Aleister Draco-. That nightmarish necromancer has now become a Lich, being manipulated by his heartless daughter! How hilarious!!”

“Shut up…!”

“You don’t even let your father, who was devoted to his family, rest in death? Aren’t you one naughty girl, milking your own parents for all their worth? As a filial daughter, I just find this unimaginable!!”

“I told you to shut up…!”

Elga continued to carry out rather venomous provocations.

She was definitely trying to buy time, especially when Elga herself knew that she wasn’t in the best of conditions and needed to recover.

Gurgling.

No one might have noticed, but I could see a constant stream of white fluid running down Elga’s calf…

“…….”
