The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 170: Black Knight Attack
"I didn't peek on purpose! I-it was just a coincidence, in the garden yard, I happened to see it!"
"Don't misunderstand the weird, okay? I was ambushed by a surprise attack." Kaizo explained in despair.
(Why does that sound like an excuse?)
"However, you're pretty obsessed with that girl."
"That's natural. He is my precious contracted spirit."
That's not true, Kaizo knows himself. As an elementalist, appreciating one's contracted spirit was naturally very natural. But to Kaizo, Alicia was a special existence not only because she was his contracted spirit.
(He gave me the light, or rather, to me then, he was the light itself.)
Victoria seemed dissatisfied with Kaizo's reply. Unfortunately, she pouted with her cute lips, "So, how many times is it all?"
"Eh?"
"Oh-of course, I mean kissing. How many times?"
"Why are you asking such a question!?"
"As your master, it is naturally necessary for me to know about the affairs of his slaves." Victoria replied with a dead red face.
"My answer is honest. How many times have you kissed?"
"Who knows." Kaizo answered stiffly.
"What, are you trying to avoid the question?"
"Why should I answer questions like this?"
"That-that, w-are you really angry?"
"I'm not angry."
"Obviously you're angry." Victoria pouted, slightly sulking. Apparently, the young lady was not happy.
By the way, Kaizo never expected Victoria to be so worried about Alicia's problems. Just now, he looked extremely happy, almost like the weather in this Wind Palace.
Kaizo sighed and looked out of the cave. The outside condition is basically a storm. A strong wind blew and a rumble of thunder rang out in the distance.
"Thunder?" Kaizo suddenly looked up.
(Wait, this is not the sound of thunder!)
Listening intently, he could hear the sound of swords clashing amidst the rumbling sounds.
"A clash of swords is taking place outside."
"What did you say?"
"The Rupture Division may be engaged in a battle with another now, hurry!"
Quickly wearing his uniform that had not dried yet, Kaizo grabbed the Demon Killer that was leaning against the wall and rushed out.

Kaizo and Victoria equipped their elemental aero as they ran in the rain In this storm, the sound of the colliding swords gradually drew closer.
As Kaizo cut down the tree in front of him, his gaze instantly widened. An empty land in the forest was formed in front of him.
A group of elementalists collapsed on the ground. The uniform of the three girls was very familiar, the uniform of the Sizuan Princess Academy and they seemed to be from another team.
"They are the Wolf Team!?" Victoria exclaimed loudly as she followed.
Likewise, they were representatives of the Sizuan Princess Academy. A team formed from outstanding upperclassmen. After Lucia withdrew from the competition, these girls rose to the top team position of the Academy.
Eldant Empire's most anticipated team. But at this moment, three of them had fallen into this unusual situation. Kaizo immediately ran to the side of one of the upperclassmen girls.
"Hey, what's going on here? Who beat you?"
"Hmm, you, who are of the Crow Class, the male elementalist..." The girl's lips shook slowly, she was still conscious apparently.
"On the other side of this forest, our comrades are fighting..."
Kaizo suddenly felt a terrible chill from behind. The girl pointed to the other side of the trees where the most unpleasant and frightening presence could be felt.
"Kaizo's..."
(No doubt. This was the aura of that person!)
The sound of the sword clashing could be heard from the other side.
"Let's go, Nyx!"
Kaizo unleashed the power of the Demon Killer at once. A dazzling silver-white light emanated from the blade of the sword. Cutting down all the trees in his path, he came out of the forest.
Entering his gaze was a knight who wielded a black sword to attack a girl. Expressionless, fiery red eyes, pitch-black knight, Nephesis Loran.
Kaizo rushed forward without hesitation, making a full-powered attack on the black knight. The sharp metal impact scattered sparks into the air.
At that very instant, the black knight's sword deflected slightly, plunging itself onto the ground just inches away from the girl's body. The remnant light from the black knight's red gaze shifted towards Kaizo.
(I know that, this is no ordinary elementalist!)
To protect the fainted girl, Kaizo readied his sword in both hands. Right behind the black knight, there was another fainted girl in the same Sizuan uniform.
(To defeat the five elite elementalists by himself, he is really strong!?)
The Wolf Team girls were the highest level elementalists in the Academy. Their abilities were clearly no less than Victoria and the other girls.
"Kaizo, stop taking action alone!"
Using her Fire Whip to burn trees in the forest, Victoria arrives on the battlefield.
He shuddered at the black knight, but instantly he understood the situation and spun to a position where he could launch a pincer attack along with Kaizo.
Behind him, the upperclassman girl protected by Kaizo groaned in pain, "Uhuk! Male elementalist, and also the sister of the Queen of Disaster..."
Obviously he was here to protect his group, yet his eyes glared hatefully at him.
"This is my affection as a fellow representative of the Academy. I'm here to help your team, Senior." Kaizo spoke stiffly as he stared at the black knight in front of him.
Although the girls were fellow representatives of the Eldant Empire, this did not mean that they were his comrades in arms. Nevertheless, he could not back down and saw his fellow students from the Academy being tortured unilaterally.
"Your help is not necessary!"
"so. Oh well, think of this as we begin our own sword style."
As he faced off against the black knight, Kaizo calmly assessed the surrounding terrain. On the right side is the forest Kaizo just passed to get out. The left side is a large cliff.
The rumbling sound of the waterfall could be heard from the bottom of the cliff. While it is impossible to be visually certain of this position, definitely falling off a cliff would be fatal.
(Fighting near the cliff will cost me dearly.)
Although Kaizo was extremely skilled in sword techniques, the strength of his arm was clearly inferior to the strength of the enemy. In a direct confrontation, he would probably be suppressed completely.
(In this case, the next attack will determine the outcome of the battle!)
Pouring divine power into the Demon Slayer, Kaizo leaped from the muddy ground.
"I'm counting on you, Nyx!"
As Kaizo rushed forward, at the same time Victoria followed behind him.
"I'll turn you into charcoal!"
Victoria attacked with her Fire Whip. Through their training at the Academy, Kaizo and Victoria's coordination with each other had improved dramatically.
Impregnated with a burning flame, his Flame Whip wrapped around the black knight's wrist just as the sword was raised. However, accompanied by a terrifying roar, the black knight easily broke the Fire Whip in half.
Although the elemental Victorian aero was capable of ensnaring first-rate military spirits, under this torrential rain, fire attribute spirits could not unleash their full strength here. Of course, Victoria herself was well aware of that fact. His efforts were entirely meant to play a supporting role for Kaizo.
It's just a little help. But Kaizo will definitely not fail to take advantage of the opportunity. With a faster speed, he swung the Demon Slayer. Instilling the holy sword with maximum holy power, this attack was not an attack that could be blocked with just two arms.
(It worked!)
As Kaizo firmly believed that victory was in his grasp, at that very instant, the black knight disappeared.
