The Sekirei’s Covenant

Chapter 482: 44. The Restricted Golden Sword



"Hah… hah… Sora, you're too unfair! I'm getting angry!"

Burned red all over like hot steel, steam rising, radiating intense heat from afar, Doni, hands on knees, gasping heavily, angrily said to Sora.

"Oh! You're getting mad, huh? I'm so scared!"

Seeing Doni teasing, Sora laughed and made an exaggerated scared face.

"But I'm still going to roast you!"

"For victory, come quickly before me. Undying sun, please grant me a shining steed!"

His expression suddenly changed sharply, a wicked look on his face. Sora raised one hand to the sky and once again chanted the summoning words for the white stallion.

Although relying on one trick to win everywhere might be a bit shameless, seeing the clumsy iron lump Doni struggling like that, Sora was more than happy!

"You bastard, I'm going to get serious now!"

Doni's heart flared with anger. Although he could still hold on thanks to the powerful Steel Guardian Authority, it didn't mean he wasn't suffering. On the contrary, being roasted repeatedly by the white stallion summoned by that bastard Sora made him feel extremely miserable!

A gleam flashed in his eyes. Doni knew that if this continued, he would definitely be played to death by that shameless guy. His whole demeanor became extremely serious.

His sword had long since melted into molten iron and evaporated, so Doni activated the power of his Demon Sword again. His originally crimson right arm turned silver, and a mercury-like fluid flowed out, which Doni controlled to condense into the shape of a sword.

"I swear by the name of my Demon Sword, I will not allow anything in this world that I cannot cut!"

Unleashing the full power of the Demon Sword, Doni took a firm stance and swung directly at the white stallion bathing in the sun god's fire, charging toward him in midair!

Crack! Crack crack!!

There was no terrifying shockwave, just one or two sounds like glass shattering.

But under that glass-breaking sound, the white stallion summoned by Sora let out a mournful cry, then burst into flames and shattered, dissipating into Countless sparks in the air!

"Another annoying power!"

With a dark face, Sora's mouth twitched as he said bitterly.

The absolute defense of the Undying Steel and the absolute offense of the Demon Sword Authority — this guy was truly a child defying the heavens!

"Hah, no matter how many times you summon, I'll cut them all for you to see!"

With a cocky smile and overwhelming confidence, Doni instantly radiated heroic spirit.

"You really think I'm out of tricks? Watch me—"

Just as Sora was about to retort with some harsh words and continue the fight with Doni, suddenly, a girl's voice came through—

"Soar, Hermes' Boots!"

Though still far away and almost inaudible, for the Godslayers who were already quite abnormal and perverse, it was easy to catch.

The two, who were ready to continue their sword fight, both paused and turned their gaze toward the source. In the distance, a girl was gracefully moving, stepping on a series of jumping magic circles as she flew up — it was the knight girl, Erica!

"Hah… haha… long time no see, Erica…"

When Erica landed in front of him, Sora couldn't help but recall the strange things he had done a few days ago. Even the thick-skinned Sora blushed slightly and awkwardly greeted Erica.

"Hey… so you really have changed back!"

A flicker of different colors flashed in Erica's beautiful eyes. The clever Erica immediately recognized that this Sora was the silly one who argued and bickered with her without any sense of maidenly reserve, not the charming and domineering Sora who once claimed to possess her.

"But this kind of king is also very cute!"

"Don't move, this is your reward for rushing over to save me…"

Stepping closer, Erica placed both hands on Sora's cheeks. A faint blush appeared on her face, but the girl didn't hesitate to stand on tiptoe and gently kissed him.

Erica was a well-educated and reserved girl from childhood, but she was also a girl who dared to love and hate. Since she had accepted Sora, even if shy, she would bravely express her love through actions!

Well, of course, this was only for the Sora she accepted; no one else had that privilege.

Because Doni was nearby as a big third wheel, the two only shared a light kiss before separating.

"Hey, Erica, what are you doing here?"

"Move aside quickly! Once I knock this bastard down, you can drag him back and kiss him all you want!"

Seeing Erica suddenly appear and kiss Sora, Doni was immediately displeased and shouted at her.

Besides fighting and swordsmanship, Doni was a bit of an idiot, so he had no awareness of being a third wheel, nor did he feel embarrassed seeing them kiss.

"Ah, Lord Salvatore, as the king's knight, Erica naturally goes wherever the king goes."

"And besides, I don't think you can defeat my king. From what I see, it seems Lord Doni, you're the one on the back foot now!"

A strange light flashed in her eyes, and Erica smiled faintly. Even facing the infamous Demon King, she showed no fear.

Of course, rather than saying Erica was fearless, it was more that she was smart and understood the straightforward, carefree personality of the Sword King before her. If it were the legendary reclusive and arrogant Lord Luo Hao or Marquis Voban, Erica would probably choose to remain silent.

"Hmph, it's all because that guy's power is too unfair!"

"Well, whatever, I'll defeat him anyway."

"Since you've accepted your role as a knight, I won't stop you anymore. Just be careful later, don't get killed by our fight."

Actually, just a day ago, Doni couldn't even remember Erica's name, but thanks to Sora, he could finally call her by name.

Although that unfair power was annoying, Sora was indeed a worthy opponent, and if possible, Doni didn't want to hurt his knight.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect Lord Salvatore, who usually only causes trouble for others, to also care about others. Is this all thanks to my king?"

"Well then, my king, can you tell me what's going on? If you could use the 'Golden Sword' power, the fight should have ended long ago, right?"

With sparkling eyes, Erica held one of Sora's arms and smiled slyly like a vixen.

"Ahem… actually, I don't know either. I can use other powers freely, but the 'Golden Sword' has some restrictions. I need detailed information about the god my opponent has slain."

"Well, you know, I don't understand any of this."

A bit embarrassed, Sora answered honestly.

If he could use the Golden Sword power, he wouldn't have to bother so much; he would have already unleashed the Golden Sword Domain and skewered Doni!

"I see…"

After some thought, a strange light flashed in Erica's blue-green eyes, and she suddenly understood.

All other powers had no restrictions, but only the Golden Sword power did. Thinking about the conditions for activating this power, Erica immediately knew what was going on!

"Hah… truly an evil king…"

Covering her forehead, even Erica looked utterly speechless.

The fact was obvious: the one who placed the activation restriction on the Golden Sword was Sora himself!

Well, of course, it was the evil state of him…

"But, it is precisely because of this that I have gained more value in staying by your side…"

Understanding something, a look of intoxication appeared on the girl's face. Then, under Sora's stunned expression, she kissed him again…
