After my rebirth, Miss Saint turned evil

Filia's silver pupils also became narrower unconsciously.

"Ah, you've just arrived. It's not I who will choose death, but you, Garlas Gargantia."

As she spoke, Filia smiled naturally in her heart.

Indeed, this is nothing more than an extremely cheap provocation.

But despite this, the enemy will still fall for it.

In Filia's memory, Garlas, who was several times more hot-blooded than others, should have rushed over immediately waving the red spear.

However, contrary to expectations, Garlas murmured slightly.

"Hey, this place, if only it weren't a battlefield."

The ferocious beast stroked its chin with its hand while scanning the city gate with its eyes.

That posture looked as if he was calculating what to do, and he looked a little out of place.

In fact, at this moment, instinct and reason were fighting each other in Garlas's mind.

So, a few seconds passed.

He raised his head and looked towards the city gate.

The silver eyes overlapped with the beast's eyes.

"Hmm, so it's still not working... huh? Never mind. Ah—goodbye, Filia Reinhardt. I hope it'll be a good place then."

That’s right, forget it.

After saying this, Garlas turned around and left with dignity.

There wasn't even a hint of hesitation or humiliation in his back, as if it was a matter of course.

In this tense atmosphere, Garlas rode his warhorse and left Gasalia.

The few soldiers who came with him followed him in a panic.

Looking at that back, Filia couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, her mouth opened, and her mind was in chaos.

asshole.

That creature, that beast, would actually show his back to a provocative enemy?

Shouldn't it be the opposite?

Wasn't he, Garlas, the kind of man who would throw himself at his enemy's neck before anyone else?

In fact, there was indeed a desire in Garlas's eyes to hold a red spear and crush the city gate.

But, despite this.

Just before he made this decision, it was as if some other thoughts intervened and overturned his will.

Asshole, that's ridiculous.

Just when Filia was in a state of confusion, suddenly, the hidden pain in her body revived.

She couldn't help but almost fell to her knees in pain.

No, I can't chase her anymore.

Watching the beast leave, the tension that enveloped Filia and the willpower that barely supported her body disappeared in an instant.

His breathing was rapid, his lungs beating wildly inside him.

At this point, my body still seems to be craving the strength I just lost.

Filia couldn't help biting her lip.

Ah, Murphy, where are you now?

Such thoughts emerged in her mind in her hazy consciousness, with a strong and dazzling light.

At this moment, I can't help but think.

Why on earth would I drag my wounded body to fight against the beast knight?

It was clear that Murphy had no way of knowing this.

But, don't care.

Now, I just want to vent all my anger on him.

At that time, after piercing the throat of the demonized giant ape.

Looking back, there was no sign of him.

Just this alone makes all the emotions in my heart about to explode.

- Murphy, the price is very high, remember this. If you try to bargain with me later, forget it!

The sparkle in Filia's eyes was a color immersed in deep emotion, different from the noble will just now.

-------------------------------------

"Knight, Lord Gargantia."

On the way back, after hearing the servant's call, Garlas just squeaked lazily.

As if even speaking was troublesome, his eyes narrowed into slits, completely different from the firmness he had when he extinguished the giant ape's life flame.

"What's wrong? Are they thieves or mercenaries?"

——If so, then take off all your clothes.

Shrugging, Garrus continued.

In response to his joking words, the servant just sighed heavily as usual and said.

"No, I just find it strange. Why did Lord Gargantia so easily choose to retreat after being provoked?"

"is it?"

Still responding nonchalantly, Garlas touched the corner of his mouth.

It was indeed as the attendant said, he had a hot-headed personality, and that was undeniable.

And in a sense, Garlas believed that this character would help him become stronger.

However, it is not entirely true to say that everything in this body is driven by this emotion.

Ah, of course.

It would be great if it were really possible.

"Well, that's why it would be nice if this weren't a battlefield. Besides, we're the minority here, after all. If we'd attacked recklessly, we'd probably be the ones with our heads and bodies torn apart by now."

If it was on the city street just now, perhaps he would have followed the surge of blood and anger, raised his fist and rushed forward with his gun in hand. The servant might have seen a similar scene before.

Even if I die as a fool, that's fine. Garlas often told himself this.

However, if it is going to the battlefield, it is a different matter.

There was no doubt that on the battlefield, he was Garras Gargantia, a Templar Knight.

With that figure and that name, you can’t mess around anymore.

Because as a knight, you cannot take stupid actions.

"And, and ah."

--and?

The attendant murmured softly as if in agreement.

Garlas, with a hint of joking, shrugged his shoulders and added.

"'Respect your enemies. Treat your enemies with courtesy, and you will be honored.'"

"Isn't that right? It should be in the code of chivalry. After all, as a knight, is it necessary to swing a lance at a wounded enemy?"

This statement really sounds like a joke that can be seen everywhere.

The servant couldn't tell whether this was Garlas's true intention or just a play on words.

(End of Volume 4)

-------------------------------------

The contents of this chapter and the previous chapter's chivalric code actually have no source, but are simply expanded upon based on the eight virtues of chivalry.

There are actually two types of knights in this article, namely, knights with simple noble titles and knights with military power.

The Knights Templar are a military organization belonging to the Church, and their style of doing things is more like that of the Knights of the Order, except that the Knights of the Order are loyal to the king and the nobles, while the Knights Templar are loyal to God.

Volume 5: Belphein Riot

Final remarks for Volume 4

This is a belated closing statement for the fourth volume. The author just returned home today. After updating everyone on the first chapter of the fifth volume, I would like to talk about the contents of the fourth volume.

The fourth volume of this book was completed when the author graduated from university.

I took a look at the word count in Word and there are 117592 words in total.

The content of this volume mainly revolves around the elven kingdom - Gasalia, the hanging garden located in the great forest.

In fact, the author really wanted to talk about the plot and characters of this volume at the beginning.

Let’s talk about Finn Rakias, the King of the Elf who longs for change, and Valianna, the loyal knight of the Elf Princess.

I wrote maybe a few thousand words, but after thinking about it, I decided not to continue.

Every reader has his or her own ideas and should interpret the plot differently.

As a character who has already passed away in the story, it is better not to talk about him casually.

Apart from these two important "villains", the rest is the heroine.

The changes in their relationship were so obvious that there seemed no need to discuss them separately.

Saint Matthias's self-doubt.

Filia's obsession deepened.

The first time that Master and Disciple Frodo came into physical contact.

and the elven princess Eltis, who was bound by Mephi and became a qualified princess/queen.

Then, let’s talk about our male protagonist Murphy.

With the help of Mattia, Murphy began to doubt himself because he did not do his best when he killed the elf knight Valiana.

The same mentality arose when he defeated the guards around the old elf and was about to execute Lagias.

He believed that if it was that hero, Ames, there would definitely be a way to achieve the goal even without killing the enemy.

However, he is not a brave man, so he cannot do his best.

He could only achieve his goal by killing his enemies one by one.

At that time, the old Elf King became angry when he saw Murphy denying him like that, and scolded him.

This is both for Murphy's inferiority complex and for his own self-esteem.

"Squeeze the rat in your heart. Then, step in front of me, hero. That's the victor's duty."

This sentence will directly change Murphy's distorted mentality of self-denial and self-sacrifice in the future.

After Murphy understands and completely accepts this sentence, he will no longer think of himself as a lowly rat man.

Thus, Murphy's story as a mouse ends.

What follows is his story as a hero in the sun.

The greatest enemy creates heroes.

At this point, the elf chapter of the fourth volume has come to an end, and the next volume will be the return to the free city.

In the next volume, the Cult of Heraldry helps Eltis ascend the throne of the Queen of Elves and successfully reaches a cooperation. The first large-scale Shura field plot will also appear here.

On the side of the Goddess Cult, Templar Garlas Gargantia returned to the Empire and reported the changes in the Elf Kingdom.

Therefore, the main content of the next volume will be a series of stories centered around the preparations before the war and the fight for support from neutral cities. Saint Ella will also return.

Thank you for reading this.
