Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

Chapter 507 I lied to you

"Clang!"

The blocked sword accidentally slipped out of her hand and Lilith fell to the ground again. Seeing Metternich, who had turned into a bloody man, rushing towards her with a sword raised, she suddenly felt as if there were heavy weights on her hands, feet and neck, as if she was hit to the ground by an invisible giant, unable to move.

What happened to Lyrael?! — That was Lilith's first reaction.

But this time she made a wrong judgment.

“…There’s an elemental fluctuation!?”

Lilith's spiritual perception was blocked by the Forbidden Magic Ring, but Hannah, who had been holding the Shadow Core in the crowd, suddenly felt a surge of elemental power sweeping through the arena! Someone was casting magic at the people in the duel. Who was it?! She stood on tiptoe, searching for someone!

“—There!”

The other magicians naturally felt it as well. Lulu had sharp eyes, and she was the first to see that three people in holy white robes had appeared on the steps at the bottom of the highest stand. There were both men and women among them. No matter how loud the cheers from the audience were, they just stared at the field, muttering to themselves.

They're from the Church! How can this be considered a fair trial by combat?!

"What should we do? Should we still stick to the original plan?" Hannah turned around and looked at her companions.

"No! We can't just sit there and do nothing. Lilith can't cast any defensive magic right now." Jaina gritted her teeth and took temporary command. "It's too far. We have to get closer to those people. The guardians will be responsible for clearing the way and covering us. Hannah, use your invisibility mist now and move closer to help Lilith counter the magic."

Lilith is responsible for solving Angel's troubles, so they are responsible for solving Lilith's troubles.

"...How about we talk about the five gold coins?" Lilith tried to roll over but couldn't avoid Metternich's slash. The wound on her shoulder was almost visible to the bone. She was used to being able to bend and stretch under Leila's hands, so she immediately started talking nonsense again.

"Hey, actually my father doesn't like me either, my friend, I understand you——"

Metternich's roar interrupted her. This guy was like a puppet controlled by silk strings, and the only action he could take was to attack. This forced Lilith to flee in a panic on the ground with her heavy body. The pressure on her body was sometimes light and sometimes light, and she smashed the wooden board into deep and shallow pits - Help, what the hell is he doing!

"Lilith!" She seemed to hear someone in the crowd calling her name, and she rolled on the ground quickly, but suddenly her scalp hurt, and someone grabbed her hair and lifted her up.

This bastard!

Now, without her companions in the audience warning her, Lilith realized that this duel was no longer just a battle between the two of them, because at this moment she and Metternich were face to face again. She saw that the wounds that she had cut with her sword had now grown bright red granulations, dancing and probing in the air like living things, grabbing his flesh and trying to tear it together. The scene was very evil, and she got goose bumps at the first sight.

Someone is repairing Metternich's body! Who is it?! Lilith glanced quickly to the side.

"Who are you waiting for to save you? The princess?" Metternich felt a heat stream flowing from his eyes, nose, and mouth as he spoke. He grinned and said:

"Victory belongs to the Church of Light!"

With his body on the verge of collapse, Metternich didn't dare to delay even a moment and swung his giant sword towards Lilith's neck.

"clang!"

Metternich's expression twisted for a moment - this woman is harder to kill than a cockroach!

The next second, a sharp cold light shot out from below, instantly severing the golden hair in his hand, freeing its owner. Then, it stabbed at his throat. Metternich quickly dodged the fatal blow, but he didn't expect the sword to swerve downwards and strike his arm!

"what--!"

There were screams from both the stage and the audience. Without the protection of armor, Metternich's arm holding the sword flew out in full view of everyone.

——The winner is clear.

Lilith stood up with a strange expression and touched her neck, "This is not my fault..."

The white ghost's sword struck the magic-suppressing ring on her neck. Hey, who would believe her luck if she told others about it? She turned her head to look at the spectator stand. From a distance, she could see that Bishop Quincy's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Lilith bent down slightly, lifted the non-existent hem of her skirt, and gracefully bowed to him in thanks.

At the same time, three God-favored Ones standing on the steps at the bottom of the stands tumbled down one after another, but no one noticed, and naturally no one stepped forward to help them. Seeing this, Lucas and Ian hurriedly took Lulu and the others back into the crowd.

Metternich seemed to have finally used up his last breath, and cracks and fine lines of varying sizes began to appear on his skin, a sign of his physical collapse.

"Do you want to fight again?" Lilith watched him struggle to stand up, trying to pry open his broken limbs and take out his sword to continue fighting. "Your father would probably be proud of you, right?"

"Father..." Metternich repeated mechanically. He had lost too much blood and was now as pale as a ghost, but he still tried to raise his sword.

"He won't..." Pain and sadness finally appeared on his face. "Since I was little, I have always tried my best to be in front of my father..."

"laugh--"

With a scream, Lilith was in front of Metternich. When their bodies crossed, blood spurted out from Knight Metternich's neck.

Teacher Phoebe didn't lie to her. The blood from the carotid artery could really spurt far away. This time she cut it accurately.

"Ho-ho-"

Metternich was speechless for a moment, and his tall body suddenly knelt down with a loud thud.

"Why are you actually revealing your innermost thoughts? Sorry." Lilith shook the blood off her sword. She was exhausted, and her voice became weak. "I'm actually not interested in hearing about your tragic life story of not being loved by your father."

Metternich's eyes were filled with confusion and disbelief. She had just said that her father also—

"I was kidding." Lilith stepped past him and walked behind him.

"Is life easier for women?" Lilith pulled his hair, just like Metternich just did, exposing his neck completely.

“It seems to be true.”

She swung her sword again, cutting Metternich's neck even more easily.

The tall knight fell.

The whole place was dead silent, so quiet that the audience in the front row could hear the survivors' gasps on the stage.

Angel was stunned. She looked at Lilith on the duel stage. Lilith's body was covered in her own blood and the blood of the White Ghost. She looked like a bloody person. Angel saw her standing there for a long time. Then, in the dead silence below the stage, she raised her sword and shouted -

"Justice will prevail!"

"Justice will prevail!" Her companions below were the first to respond to her.

"...Justice will prevail!" Some people began to shout, and then others were also caught up in this fanatical emotion.

Angie covered her mouth.

They...won?
