The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 275: The Forsaken Spirits Problem
Kaizo's face immediately flushed red, he turned his face away saying, "If you feel unbearable, don't fight him too much."
"Sorry." Eve obediently relaxed and leaned tightly on him. Kaizo's heart raced in response.
"Let's be clear, don't mistake me for an immoral woman." Eve whispered softly with an embarrassed expression. Be-acting like this, all the poison is wrong."
"Yes I know."
To help relieve the pain and suffering from the poison, Kaizo tightened his arm around Eve's waist.
"Ah, le-harder, a little more!"
"L-like this?"
"A little more, oh, kiss ♪"
At this moment, Kaizo felt a deadly sweet taste flowing into his brain. Eve starts biting Kaizo's neck.
"Mmm, hmm, kiss ♪"
Maintaining his posture of hugging Eve, Kaizo squirmed and muttered, "E-Eve, this is too..."
(Please, my sanity, you must endure!) Kaizo closed his eyes and shouted in his mind.
****
(I-I survived. My sanity is just inches from the limit.)
After that, a few minutes have passed. Eve was now sound asleep in Kaizo's lap while listening to the sound of her calm breathing.
(It looks like the aphrodisiac effect has ended.)
Since sleeping in wet clothes would result in a cold, she now wears her underwear with a Kaizo jacket to cover her body.
Despite the great difficulties encountered while taking off his clothes right while he was asleep, Kaizo channeled the superhuman self-control he developed through the training of «Instructional» School and successfully completed the task without interruption.
But, she stared once or twice at the contours of her impressive cleavage. After all, he had to recover his strength after a break.
Placing the fire spirit crystal on the ground to bring out warmth, Kaizo held her yaw. The sun had just set outside, causing the inside of these ruins to become somewhat dim.
(We have to spend the night in this place.)
As much as possible he wanted to meet the other team members as quickly as possible, Eve's current condition did not allow for reckless actions.
"Mmm, Kaizo, I'll make you a ham sandwich..." On her lap, Eve spoke in her dream.
"Of course, you're the ham, I-I'm the bread, okay..."
"What the hell is he dreaming of?" Kaizo shrugged his shoulders wryly.
Her twintail hair was released, her innocent sleeping face was truly adorable.
(By the way.).
Kaizo looked up and immersed himself into a different thought.
(I never expected even Lina to be tied up as their teammate.)
Number seven of «Instructional» School, "Venom" Lina Flame. Not only was he proficient in fighting techniques, he was also top-class in espionage abilities at the facility.
When they worked together in the past, she was still a girl who did not talk much. However, the impression he gave just now was much different than it used to be, since the destruction of «Instructional» School, four years have passed.
(In other words, I'm not the only one who changed.)
Kaizo had heard that basically all the orphans of the facility had obtained the protection of the Knights of Eldant.
However, among those already on the mission, called «Ranked Lones», there seem to be some whose whereabouts are unknown.
(Commander «Team Inferno», Masked Spirit Contractor who stole Rei Assar's name, where and how did he relate to missing children from «Instructional» school?)
"Kaizo?"
"Hmm?"
Suddenly hearing his name being called, Kaizo turned to look. Dressed in his uniform, Nyx approached from a dark angle.
"Nyx, are you okay now?"
"Yes. Although I still need a break to fulfill my duty as a sword."
Nyx walked quickly and sat lightly beside Kaizo. His mysterious purple eyes continued to stare at Kaizo.
"Kaizo, I'm hungry."
"Yes, it's like this."
Spirits usually do not need to eat, but there are many high-level spirits who consider human food as a hobby they enjoy, especially Nyx.
Since he needed three meals a day at the Academy while together with Kaizo, it made him a little sad that he was suffering from the increase in the food budget.
"Talking about dinner, all we have is this kind of thing."
Careful not to wake Eve in her lap, Kaizo took out from her uniform pocket a pea-sized pill.
This was a medicine that was considered a treasure among portable foods for Spirit Contractors. It is made from dozens of spices and seasoned with sugar and honey. Filling, easy to digest, and highly nutritious, is known as a masterpiece.
"Eh, Nyx?"
"Kaizo, you don't have any food?" Nyx asked with plain eyes.
Feeling guilty, Kaizo apologizes to Nyx, "Sorry, there's only this right now."
Due to weight problems, all conventional food and cookware are stored in the stomach «Fenrir». Before meeting with Aura, they had no choice but to endure.
"I understand, Kaizo." Nyx nodded obediently.
"I'm really sorry. When we return to «Wind Palace», please eat as many of your favorite menus as you want."
"Yes." Yeah." Nyx nodded again, then said, "then Kaizo, please give me that snack."
Like a baby bird waiting to be fed, she opened her small mouth. Currently, the legendary «Demon Slayer» makes a "Ah," posture with the mouth open.
(How should someone say it? That's an exaggerated cuteness.)
Kaizo coughed and looked around, "Yes, say ah..."
Holding the pill on his finger, he delivered it to Nyx's mouth. Expressionless, Nyx slightly widened her pupils, "It's quite tasty."
"really? Good to know you like it." Seeing him give an unexpected compliment, Kaizo heaved a sigh of relief.
"By the way, Nyx..."
Seeing Nyx look like that, Kaizo suddenly thought of something and asked, "Just now, when we were attacked by that herd of «Forsaken Spirits», you tried to say something. Yeah, right before you turn into a sword, Nyx."
'Tsk, these guys aren't after me but Nyx!?'
'It seems so, Kaizo. Very likely, I...'
There was an exchange like that.
"What were you talking about then?"
Hence Nyx nodded, "Yes. Back then, the reason «Forsaken Spirits» attacked was most likely because I was «Spirit Weapon», that's what I wanted to say."
"Spirit weapon?"
A foreign term Kaizo never heard of.
(No wait, I remember from college at the Academy.)
Kaizo tries hard to remember his additional lessons with his teacher Emilia.
(Really. I remember it was a general term for powerful spirits deployed during the «Roh» War.)
"Nyx, what is «Such Roh» weapon?"
"Yes. That's what my memory tells me." Nyx nodded again.
The reason why he acted so ambiguously was because Nyx currently only inherited the memories of the actual «Rune Nyx» as fragmented knowledge.
"I don't know if I'm on the side of «Elemental Lord» or the rebels. However, I believe myself in the past exterminated a large number of spirits in this abandoned city." Nyx muttered in a cold, expressionless manner as usual. No emotion could be read from such a face.
