Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 27: Demons In Human Skin Part two



Alicia looked as she was dancing as she easily went to and fro between the four remaining men, killing each one in a single strike. Alicia had no hesitation in her act of killing. As a knight, one must be ready to kill all enemies that stand before them. As the third virtue states, no mercy to any of those who dare to harm your king, it's land and its people! She will uphold all the virtues that Berlin and instilled in her. These men are criminals that all deserve to die. Not a single one of them deserves to live.

After she fell the men she did not even look at them again as she pushed forward. She did not get far before she heard a roar of many men. "She's over here kill her!" "Kill her!"

Arrows dotted the sky but Alicia did not even flinch as she stood her ground. Her magic power burst out of her causing the leaves, dirt, and dust around her to fly in all directions. Hundreds of fireballs bigger than Alicia's head formed around her. "Go!" She shouted out. Sending the mass of fireballs flying towards the arrows. Each and every arrow that was coming towards her burnt to ash as the fireballs continued on its path towards those who fired them.

"Ahh!" "It Hurts!" "I can't put this fire out!"

Screams of agony sounded out as those who were not quick enough were hit by the fireball bombardment. Seeing how ranged attacks were not working, those with swords, axes, spears, and many other melee weapons charged forward. Alicia charged right into the fray twisting, turning, jumping and slashing her way through as she killed some and injured others.

"Dancing among the blood as the fairy queen taps the air and makes the air itself tremble." Berlin recited an ancient verse that he had heard once when he was young. This was the sight that he saw in front of him. Her little body was as fast as lightning as she danced amongst the blood of the ones she had just slain. She was like a god of death as she reaped life after life. Loeri who was on top of her head was covering her back very well. The two made a perfect team. "It seems like I have created a true death god. With her magic power and sword ability, she would need to train with the elites to even get decent training in. Seems I will need to make a private regime for her once she becomes a squire. It's just too bad that Squires can not become knights until they have been a squire for a few years and have merits under their belt. Although I could make an exception for her. I am sure Alicia would scold me if I did."

As Berline was planning the future for Alicia, Alicia, herself was cutting down man after man. She had no idea how many she had killed so far. All she knew was she was covered in blood and walking amongst many corpses that now lay on the ground. She had been fighting for hours now and was slowly making her way to the location that held the scroll.

Alicia was getting very tired. Her movements had slowed down quite a bit. She really wanted to take a rest but there were so many of these men attacking her that she had no chance to stop. Berlin noticed that Alicia was starting to wear out. Which made him realize that he went a bit too overboard with the number of attackers. She had been fighting nonstop for the past few months versus demonic beasts and now she has been fighting nonstop against so many grown men, he could tell she would not make it until the end at this pace. Frowning at his stupid mistake Berlin waved his hand killing everyone in sight.contemporary romance

Alicia saw all the men in front of her fall to the ground and felt a wave of relief that drained her adrenaline. This adrenaline was what was keeping her moving forward so as soon as it disappeared, Alicia's eyes closed as she fainted from exhaustion. Berlin appeared beside and caught her small body before she fell to the ground.

Loeri who was still on top of Alicia's head looked at Berlin with rage filled eyes and yelled out: "You damn old man are you trying to kill Alicia!? Look how young she is and you have sent this many demons in human skin after her? Are you crazy!?"

Berlin could not hide his shame he knew he went way too overboard with this test. But as he looked behind him and saw the number of dead prisoners he was quite surprised that such a little body was able to do this much. "Loeri, I know I did. I was so amazed by how fast Alicia could progress that I forgot about her age. These men were all men that were hard to catch in the first place. But the amount she killed is enormous. Even this much is way more than enough for her to pass this training with flying colors." Berlin waved his hand and a golden scroll appeared in his hand. "This is the scroll she needed to find. When she wakes up just tell her that she fainted right before the scroll and you went to get it for her."

"Old man, you need to be careful with Alicia from now on. She has almost died many times during this training. It is a good thing you have kept an eye on her. Otherwise, she really would have died." Loeri reprimanded. She did not care who this man was, all she cared about was Alicia's safety. Loeri knew that Alicia could not be locked away in some tower someplace but this kind of training was too much!

"I will make sure I never do this again. I swear to you on my title as King of Alastine that I will never go this far again with her training. " Berlin said as he bowed his head to Loeri. He would make sure to never go this overboard again. Harsh training was fine but this was way beyond her limits.

"I will hold you to that promise." Loeri said before turning her head and not caring for Berlin anymore.
