I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 348

In the outer area of ​​the Monster Forest, Elena sat on a tree, holding a piece of dried meat in her mouth and a book on alchemy in her hand. Occasionally, she turned her head to look under the tree and saw a blue figure being besieged by monsters.

This person was naturally the Duke's daughter, Serita. She was holding the expensive rune sword that she had bought with thousands of gold coins, and was fighting a monster called a scorpion.

As its name suggests, the scorpion is covered with spikes all over its body, and it can move underground at high speed. It is very fast and can be called a ghost.

Now Serita is besieged by more than a dozen scorpions. This kind of monster lives in groups and often encounters a large group.

At this moment, Serita is quite embarrassed. As the daughter of the Duke's family, she should be a shining and moving existence, but now she looks gray and dirty. Her clothes were torn in many places during the battle, revealing the skin full of blood and dust underneath.

She looked no better than the people in the slums of the South City. There was no clean spot on her body, and countless scratches made her look particularly embarrassed.

Serita just wanted to stop and take a breath, but the seemingly empty ground behind her suddenly moved. A bulge quickly broke open, and a black figure flew out and attacked her at a high speed.

Perhaps because of fatigue, Serita failed to react immediately, and her body instinctively turned sideways, but she was still scratched on the abdomen by the attacking figure, and a bright red wound appeared.

The rotating figure bounced on the ground and soon stretched out its body. It was a spiny rat covered with thorns.

This monster looks very similar to a hedgehog, but its head has facial features similar to those of a human, and its limbs are more slender. Its sharp teeth and claws are very obvious. It is a very ferocious monster at first glance.

A monster with such a fast speed is already very tricky, but there are still more than a dozen of the same spiny rats moving under the ground, surrounding Serita in the middle and ready to attack at any time.

"Die!"

The pain made Serita a little overwhelmed. Now she no longer had the reserve that a young lady should have, and she could not maintain the so-called glory she talked about.

The magic power in her body resonated with the fighting spirit while waving the rune sword, and the sword with the attribute of fire flew out, and the spiny rat that had just scratched Serita was cut into pieces on the spot.

Serita's original moves were quite exaggerated in both power and speed, and these monsters could not react at all.

But the death of her companion seemed to anger the remaining spiny rats. The ground was shaking, and more than a dozen figures broke out of the ground one after another, attacking Serita like a speeding wheel.

Since coming to this strange country and strange city, Serita has been a month, and she has also experienced a month of training beside Elena.

Her already good talent has been reflected, and Serita's skills are no longer what they used to be. She is like dancing among the constantly attacking spiny rats, and her figure keeps shuttling among the sharp spikes.

The sword in her hand kept blocking, sparking with the high-speed spinning spiny rats, and occasionally using magic to counterattack, as if performing a gorgeous dance drama.

After an unknown amount of time, the wounded Serita half-crouched on the ground holding the sword, surrounded by dead spiny rats, and she once again survived the siege of the monsters.

Elena on the tree also noticed the movement below, and landed on the ground with a nimble leap. Looking carefully at the spiny rats lying on the ground, a rare look of satisfaction appeared on her face.

Facing this man who was watching the show on the tree the whole time, Serita's face was neither sad nor happy. She walked to the side of the monster like a walking corpse, and peeled the material with a dagger that was no longer sharp.

The spikes on the spiny rats are very valuable and can be used as arrows, which are very popular among archers. The proof of the spiny rats' crusade is their noses. The slender and sharp noses are the key to completing the commission.

Who would have known that the Duke's daughter, who would never desecrate corpses and even treated monsters with human standards a month ago, could now cut the monster's flesh without changing her expression.

As if she could not feel the disgusting feeling of cutting flesh and blood, or as if she treated the matter in front of her as a job like cutting wood, Serita's eyes were calm, as if she had long been numb to everything in the world.

Seeing this scene, Elena rubbed his hands. He felt that he seemed to have gone too far and hurt the child.

There was no way. Serita had made great progress. Seeing this, Elena could not help but raise his expectations for her in his heart. He came to his senses and brought out the training that should not appear at this stage.

The problem is that if Serita complained about being tired from the beginning, Elena might appropriately weaken the intensity.

ButSince she realized how stupid she was after buying the rune sword, Serita seemed to be stimulated. She was originally as stubborn as a cow, but now she has become even more stubborn.

No matter what hardship she endured, she would not say anything. Even if one day she kicked her into the river, she would subconsciously think that she must have her own intentions.

In this situation, Elena's education gradually lost its original intention and began to blindly increase the intensity. When she came to her senses, she had already tormented Serita into a zombie.

"Fourteen agoutis, the materials are all here."

With an extremely cold tone, Serita showed the things in front of Elena expressionlessly. She should have loved beauty the most at her age, but she really turned a blind eye to herself covered in blood.

"....My fault."

Seeing this scene, Elena began to feel guilty. Her hands covered with holy light reached out and rubbed Serita's shoulders.

Under the light that heals people's hearts, Serita felt comfortable, her body trembled uncontrollably, and she was so comfortable that she could hardly open her eyes.

When she came to her senses and opened her eyes, she finally regained some consciousness in her eyes, and gradually realized what she had just done. She felt a little nauseous looking at the corpses on the ground.

Elena, who was standing by, hurriedly increased the power of the holy light, and almost helped Serita back to the city all the way. It took a lot of effort to submit all the commissions.

After returning to the hotel, Serita wanted to go back to the room and fall asleep, but was still forcibly pulled away by Miss Sera.

Her body was covered with blood and sweat, and there was dirt and dust everywhere. How could she lie on the bed like this? As a girl, she had to wash her body no matter what.

But when Miss Sera left, she turned around and glared at Elena fiercely, as if saying, "You'll see what's next."
