A cross-dressing anime, starting with Kaguya-sama: Love Is War.

However, after the shouts subsided, none of the four men in black robes immediately launched an attack.

They simply maintained their approaching stance, as if waiting for something.

It was this momentary sense of incongruity that gave Lynn a bad feeling.

Something's not right!

Lynn turned around abruptly, his gaze passing over Kaguya's shoulder and landing on Lily Luca behind him.

The little girl remained motionless, her head bowed, her small body trembling slightly.

She looked as if she was terrified by the scene before her, filled with fear and helplessness.

There was nothing unusual.

Am I mistaken?

"Damn it! What are we waiting for!"

The leader of the black-robed men seemed to realize something was wrong and let out an angry curse.

Their plan failed!

"Let's do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, four dark figures burst forth instantly, like arrows released from a bow, rushing towards him from four different directions!

Three of them formed a triangular formation and headed straight for Kaguya.

The remaining one circled in an arc, its target clearly set on Lynn.

"Boy, this time, I'm going to kill you!" The hoarse voice was filled with deep-seated hatred.

???

Lynn was filled with questions. What did those words mean?

Does this person know him?

Kaguya's heart tightened. All three of them were Level 2. Although she could handle them, what about Lynn...?

Adventurers are strictly ranked, and their rank represents their combat strength.

Although Lynn is highly skilled with a sword and has learned magic that doesn't require chanting, his stats are definitely not as good as those of a Level 2 Adventurer.

She subconsciously spared a glance in Lynn's direction.

It was this momentary lapse in concentration that caused a slight opening in her otherwise impenetrable sword strike.

The leader of the black-robed men seized the opportunity and thrust his long sword swiftly toward her ribs.

Kaguya cursed under her breath, touched the ground with her toes, and twisted her body at an incredible angle, narrowly avoiding the attack.

But her rhythm was disrupted.

On the other side,

Faced with the charging enemy, Lynn made a move.

Swallows return!

Facing the attacking enemy, Lynn used Swallow Return.

However, this time the swallows returned, and it was completely different from the past.

As he drew his sword, a streak of orange-red flame instantly coiled around his blade.

The essence of the "Fire Control Technique" is to control flames through the body's energy.

Since it is energy, it should not be limited to spraying; it should be able to attach to any object and any move!

The three intersecting sword lights were no longer pure silver, but rather carried scorching flames, leaving three dazzling trails in the dim passage.

The black-robed man's pupils contracted sharply. Why was this move different?

He had no idea that Lynn's sword would be covered in flames!

The scorching heat caused his courage to waver once again.

However, this time he was prepared and dodged backward, trying to avoid the strange attack.

But it didn't work.

He could dodge the first sword light, but he couldn't dodge the second, let alone the third!

"Pfft!"

One of the sword beams, crackling with flames, struck him squarely on the head.

"Boom!"

The flames seemed to have found an outlet, instantly bursting into flames on his body and engulfing him entirely.

The agonizing screams didn't even last a second before abruptly stopping.

The man in black robes transformed into a burning torch, fell straight down, and quickly turned into a charred corpse.

One strike, instant kill!

Kaguya caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of her eye, and her worry instantly turned into shock, followed by a self-deprecating laugh.

How could I still be worried about this monster?

When Kaguya is distracted,

Lily Luca actually moved; she suddenly put down the large bag behind her.

With a pained expression, he pulled something out of his pocket...

60. Alphia (Please subscribe)

Lynn kept a close eye on Lily Luca and noticed that she took out a bottle.

As the cork was opened, a rich aroma of wine wafted out.

Is it the holy wine of Soma?

Lynn made a judgment in her heart.

After drinking the divine wine, Lilyluka knelt weakly on the ground, but her expression relaxed considerably.

As for Kaguya, after seeing Lynn instantly kill the enemy, she laughed self-deprecatingly.

Honestly... hesitant and indecisive, this is hardly the same "Yamato Rindou" that strikes fear into the hearts of all!

A surge of pride rose from the bottom of his heart, and Kaguya's eyes instantly became sharp and focused.

She no longer held back.

The long sword "Higanbana" at his waist and the small katana "Futaba" in his hand rang out with clear, melodious sounds.

This is her strongest stance, a hybrid combat technique combining dual-wielding and longsword iaido!

"A flash of blood!"

Kaguya's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

The next second, a blood-red flash of light streaked past the three men in black robes!

fast!

We're almost at the limit!

The three men in black robes didn't even see Kaguya's movements clearly; they only felt a chill on their necks.

Their bodies froze on the spot, their eyes still holding the ferocity of their attack, but the breath of life was rapidly slipping away.

"Splash! Splash! Splash!"

Three bodies collapsed to the ground almost simultaneously.

After Lynn dealt with the enemy, he looked at Kaguya and was about to shout, "Leave one alive!"

But it was too late.

He could only shake his head helplessly as he watched Kaguya's decisive and efficient figure.

It's no wonder it's made by Yamato Ryudan.

Kaguya slowly sheathed her sword, not even glancing at the corpse on the ground.

Lynn walked to the black-robed man 04 whom he had burned to death, squatted down, and reached out to remove the black cloth covering the man's face.

His face was charred black, his features completely burned away by the flames, making it impossible to identify him.

Lynn then revealed the names of people killed by Kaguya, people he did not know.

"Kaguya, do you know them?"

Kaguya sheathed her sword, walked to Lynn's side, looked him over carefully, and then shook her head; "Don't recognize him, these people are a bit weak."

at this time,

Lily Luca looked at Lynn and Kaguya in surprise.

She hadn't expected that not only Kaguya, but also Lynn was so capable.

She's a little scared now.

But you can't run yet.

Lynn stood up, walked up to Lily Luca, and suddenly asked, "Those men in black robes just now, were they your accomplices?"

Lily Luca shuddered and shook her head immediately.

“Don’t rush to deny it,” Lynn interrupted her. “They told you to use some kind of tool to ambush me or Kaguya at a crucial moment, right? But you hesitated, or rather, you didn’t dare.”

"So you chose to play dumb, betting that we could take care of them, and also betting that we wouldn't discover your little tricks."

After he finished speaking, Lynn stared intently at Lily Luca.

Kaguya also came to Lynn's side and drew her katana again.

Lily Luca's body trembled violently with fear. She shook her head desperately, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

"No...no! I...I don't know them!"

"I...I really don't know them..." Lily Luca's voice was trembling with sobs, filled with grievance.

Lynn did not press him further.

He was just trying to scam Lilyluka.

Although something felt off, Lily Luca didn't actually show any abnormal behavior.

From Lilyluka's perspective, there were opportunities to ambush or assassinate her, but she didn't make a move.

Lynn withdrew her scrutinizing gaze and softened her tone.

"Okay, it's alright now."

Kaguya sheathed her sword, glanced coldly at the corpse on the ground, and then paid no more attention to it.

Lily Luca struggled to her feet, looking at Lynn and Kaguya with gratitude and an undisguised awe in her eyes.

She bowed deeply to the two of them.

"Thank you... thank you for saving me."

After saying that, she slung her large backpack over her shoulder, lowered her head, and said, "I'm going back to the surface."

“We should go back too,” Lynn said. “Let’s go together.”

The atmosphere was somewhat somber on the way back to the ground.

Lynn tried to talk to Lily Luca.

"Lily Luca, how is the Soma Familia doing now?"

Lily Luca stiffened, paused for a moment, then followed, her head down and her voice very soft.

"I...I'm not quite sure, I'm just a supporter..."

Her reply was polite but distant, clearly indicating her unwillingness to discuss matters concerning her family.

Lynn asked a few questions, and Lily Luca's answers were all very formulaic.

Since we can't get any answers, let's just leave it at that.
