She Chooses To Destroy the World

Chapter 18: First victory.

Alice pushed DeWitt’s body aside and sat up.

When she fought DeWitt before, the mercenaries on both sides were far away for fear of being affected by them. DeWitt had the upper hand at the time, probably because she was worried that someone would come to disrupt the situation and deliberately led her to deviate from the main course. At this moment, she looked around, and there was no one nearby, but it was just enough for her to find a gap to organize herself.

Her clothes were soaked in blood, and her face was in a mess. But she didn’t have time to pay attention to these little things, and quickly checked her wounds first.

The part that was cut by DeWitt had healed at this time, leaving a dark scar. The scar was very long and looked shocking. She stood up and moved her hands and feet. Everything was fine, but she was a little dizzy… Maybe it was because there was too much blood flow just now.

According to the plan, after she killed Devitt, she should quickly catch up with the large forces and continue to fight until they win the final victory. But her own sword had been broken by Dewitt before, and she couldn’t use it anymore, so she had to get Dewitt’s great sword. Just now DeWitt wanted to cut her hair with a sword, and when he fell, the sword was falling on her sideburn, almost cutting off her ears.

Alice is a little uncertain. If her ears are cut off, will the God of the Future help her install them? If he fails to do so, she will probably be renamed “One Ear Alice” after she is promoted to a special mercenary, which is too bad.

All in all, it’s great to keep your ears. But… can she really handle DeWitt’s sword?

DeWitt’s sword is a huge sword, and when the two confronted each other, Alice already felt the oppressive feeling this sword brought to people. In her opinion, this sword seems to be heavier than the giant sword that Roma usually uses. She who is accustomed to using light swords might not be able to handle it at all.

But there was only such a sword in front of him, and it would be too dangerous to walk back to the battlefield and pick it up empty-handed. Alice didn’t want the **** to save herself again. Although this sword must not fit well, Alice decided to take it away as long as she could handle it.

Although she has never used a giant sword, she has seen Roma use it countless times, and she still knows some rules. She took a deep breath and picked up the giant sword on the ground.

Strangely, this sword didn’t seem to be as heavy as she thought.

Alice looked at her arm, she was as thin as usual, and she didn’t grow much muscle. But the sword in his hand became lighter. It is said that this is a two-handed giant sword. Lovely Lisi is holding this sword with one hand at this time, but it doesn’t take much effort.

Could it be that the God of the Future raised her power by the way when he was saving her?

Alice was surprised, but she didn’t have time to think about it at this moment. The battle is urgent, and since she can wield Devitt’s sword, she should go to the battle immediately. She carried the sword on her back, rode on a horse that ran here from somewhere, and ran towards the front line battlefield.

At this time, the two armies are in a stalemate, it can be said that it is difficult to distinguish the outcome. The combat power of the two sides is half a catty, not much difference. However, the commander on the opposite side of the commander, the Cavaliers, used strange strategies and was slightly better in terms of tactics. At this time, he had already made plans, and as soon as DeWitt arrived, he could wipe out all the Morse army. Cavaliers Gal knew that this time the super mercenary Undead Roma was not invited to play. In his opinion, DeWitt is very physically strong and has a sword in his hand. Against the red-haired Allen who has not been alone in the task, he should be easy to win. .

At this time, someone came on horseback in the distance, and Knight Gall saw the man riding a horse from a distance with a silver helmet on his head, thinking that Dewitt had arrived. The order was passed down quickly and the soldiers began to change their formation according to his plan. However, when the man approached and took off his helmet, Knight Gall saw his hair fluttering like flames—

It’s the redhead Allen!

The red-haired boy was covered in blood and murderous, but his appearance was so beautiful, like a **** of war descending from the sky. He lifted Devitt’s silver helmet in the air, threw it to the ground fiercely, and shouted loudly:

“The mercenary DeWitt is dead. Victory is in sight, everyone!”

DeWitt is an important combat force on the Dragon Castle side. Hearing such good news, the morale of the army on the side of Morse City Lord has been greatly boosted. Although the Dragon Fort side was still changing the formation according to the commander’s orders, his heart was already three points timid, unavoidably chaotic.

Alice rushed to the front, and no one could resist her giant sword, and she was losing ground under her sharp edge. She led people to break up the enemy’s formation and rushed to the commander’s camp, forcing the Cavaliers to surrender.

The Morse City side won the victory without any suspense, and the Gall Knight also became her prisoner. According to the general custom, the family of the noble knight had to pay a large ransom to Alice. The ransom will be divided into three parts, which will be given to the Lord Morse, the Mercenary Guild, and Alice herself. Alice can probably get thirty gold coins from it, which is an almost unimaginable amount for a young mercenary like her.

However, the ransom is not the most important thing. Now Alice is promoted to a special mercenary, and it is probably a good deal.

To celebrate the victory, the sergeants under the Lord Morse held a grand banquet that night. Although Alice was just a mercenary, she was also invited. But she politely declined the invitation, only saying that she wanted to return to the royal capital as soon as possible and prepare to be promoted to a special mercenary with her master. Everyone understands this, only Alice knows it, this is actually just an excuse.

Alice, who almost died in the previous battle, is actually hard to focus on promotion. The **** who had been without news for a long time appeared suddenly, pulled her back from the brink of death, and then immediately disappeared…Such a thing happened to him, no one can keep calm. What’s more, Alice has just turned seventeen, this kind of experience is really a bit too heavy for her.

She wanted to go back to Roma quickly and tell him about it.

During Alice’s journey to Morse City, Roma did not take up other tasks, but stayed in the royal capital. He looked forward to a small farm near the capital and bought it with the savings he had accumulated over the years. The land near the capital is expensive, but there is no war here and the land is very fertile. Even if you spend a little more money, it is worth it. Roma has always known how to make his life comfortable. He bought some furniture and rearranged the farmhouse. When you have time, you have to go to the mercenary guild headquarters to inquire about Alice in the city.

He heard about her heroic performance on the battlefield, and as a master, he was proud of it. He thought that Alice would arrive in the capital on the third day after the war ended. He didn’t expect that the door of his farmhouse would be knocked on the next night.

Rom opened the door and saw Alice standing in the doorway.

“People from the Mercenary Guild said you are here,” she said.

Rom nodded: “I bought this place.”

Alice didn’t look right, she didn’t look like a child who had just won a battle and was in excitement. Rom just wanted to ask her about the situation on the battlefield, but she hugged her neck.

Roma looked like an old dad who was suddenly attacked by his adolescent daughter. He heard her start sobbing, and the clothes on his shoulders were wet with her tears.

“What’s wrong?” He stammered, “What happened? Didn’t you come back from victory?”

Alice didn’t bother to answer, she just kept choking. Before on the battlefield, she was like a fearless warrior, like a Valkyrie, like a companion of death. But now she saw Roma, and the fear in her heart surged, completely exposing her side as a child. For the first time in Alice’s life, she had encountered such a danger. Thinking that if it weren’t for the help of the gods, she would have died at the moment, and Alice couldn’t stop her tears.

Roma couldn’t do anything, so he could only let her lean and pat her shoulder from time to time. He thought of many terrible things that might happen, and he regretted letting her go out to do the task by herself… She was really still a child.

Alice cried for a long time, until she couldn’t cry anymore. She vaguely felt that this was probably the last time she acted like a baby in front of the master, so she had to cry happily. When she finally finished crying, she wiped her tears, let go of her master, and finally said the reason for her crying:

“This time against DeWitt, I almost died.”

Rom was surprised, he took a step back and looked up and down Alice. She looked good, she didn’t look like she was almost dead…what happened?

Before he could ask, Alice told the story as it was. From DeWitt’s left-handed sword, until she was saved by the God of the Future.

When Alice talked about the **** of the future, Rom’s expression became serious. When she finished telling all the stories, Rom sighed:

“Unexpectedly, that **** would still appear… Since he is willing to save your life, in other words, you have become his believer?”

Seeing Alice nodding, Rom sighed again.

“You have to be careful about this.” He warned her, “I am not a priest, or even a believer. The people of the Temple of Light may ignore people like me who do not follow the gods, but I know how they will treat the real The heresy of…In any case, when you need to pray, hide and pray by yourself, don’t let others see it, and don’t speak out your faith in public.”

Alice has been receiving similar advice ever since she was in the temple at the age of twelve. At that time she was still young, and she was scared to hear this. But now she is a seventeen-year-old girl who has seen a lot of traveling from the north to the north over the years, and is able to fight on the battlefield with a sword in hand, somewhat no longer paying attention to those in the temple. I’m a little bit disapproved of this kind of advice. But to her, Roma is also a teacher and a father, and a benefactor who rescued her at an important juncture. She was unwilling to refute, just pursing her lips and saying nothing.

Roma looked at her eyes and knew that she actually didn’t agree with him in her heart. He knew that she was still too young, smart and proud, and mixed with mercenaries who were indifferent to faith all the year round, which made her a little bit biased in her understanding of world affairs. Her thoughts like this could not be corrected all the time, so he changed the subject:

“Don’t talk about this, you just said that your physical strength has increased, let us test it. The one you carry on your back…is DeWitt’s sword?”

Alice nodded, drew the sword from her shoulder and handed it to Roma. Roma looked at it and couldn’t help but praise:

“It’s a rare good sword. DeWitt must have spent all his savings when he got such a sword. This kind of good thing cannot be bought casually. It must be a coincidence. If it is embedded with enchanted gems, even It won’t look inferior in the king’s arsenal…Unfortunately, it fell into the hands of poor mercenaries.

He sighed and returned the sword to Alice:

“It’s already late today, you put the sword away, and we will go to the martial arts training ground tomorrow morning.”
