After my rebirth, Miss Saint turned evil

As expected, just as he had thought, Dickens immediately became excited after hearing this: "I will definitely get the young lady there safely!"

Rayleigh didn't say anything, he just stood up and prepared to leave.

Murphy, who had been standing outside the window, saw this scene and prepared to go back.

Anyway, my goals have been achieved now.

After safely touring the city lord's fortress and meeting Old Jed's requirements, I took some money and left.

I also heard some interesting things, so it was worth the trip.

Murphy thought happily in her heart.

However, just as he was about to get up and leave, Rayleigh's words made him instantly nervous.

"Ah! By the way, Mr. City Lord, over there..."

"There's a 'rat'."

Murphy's pupils shrank because the man in the hall suddenly raised his head and stared at somewhere on the second floor.

The place he was looking at was not his own side, but that side...

Sharon!

Murphy immediately climbed through the window into the fortress and rushed to Sharon's location at the shortest distance.

Rayleigh also moved, but the fat pig city lord didn't react.

'damn it! '

Sharon also heard what Rayleigh said and knew that the "rat" he was talking about was referring to herself.

She immediately stood up and fled from where she was.

However, perhaps because she had always been able to enter and exit the castle safely, she became lazy.

Therefore, the location she chose this time was not very good.

Although I can see Murphy and the situation in the hall clearly at the same time,... retreat is not very convenient.

Unlike Murphy, she was now inside the castle, and some distance away from the window through which she had come in.

In fact, this location is difficult for others to discover.

It can be said that this is the best hiding place except for Murphy's location, so there is nothing wrong with her choosing to hide here.

However, she didn't expect that Rayleigh's senses would be so sensitive.

Sharon couldn't even believe that she was discovered, because she had just stared at the man for a while.

'Hurry up, or... we'll get caught.'

Sharon was very nervous at this moment.

If I get caught, it will definitely cause trouble for my master and everyone in the organization.

Although Dickens was a useless city lord, that didn't mean he didn't find out anything.

On the contrary, he should be very clear about the truth of the matter.

Because Old Jed's organization is the largest force in the city, and it was originally a force that started out as a theft force.

So Dickens must have discovered long ago where the group of rats that kept visiting his house came from.

However, he was afraid that if he really took action against the rats under Old Jed, it would end up in a situation where both sides would be destroyed.

In addition, Old Jed's noble status meant that he would not be able to gain any advantage even if he took action.

That's why he kept allowing the "rats" to harass him.

Therefore, he only found a group of knights to guard the place and did not take the initiative to attack the "rats".

But if I get caught...

Sharon didn't dare to think too much.

Because she had no idea what the consequences of being caught would be.

Chapter 33 Weapon Gap

Sharon could not foresee what consequences would follow after she was caught.

Maybe nothing happened, Dickens might use her to negotiate with old Jed and ask him to stop the mice from coming here again.

Or... she'll be the start of a civil war.

Let’s not talk about others for now, but if the war really breaks out, her father and old Jed will definitely be affected to some extent.

By then, Sharon will become a sinner.

Thinking of this, she unconsciously quickened her pace.

As long as I can reach the window I came from, there's still a chance to leave here——

"!"

A figure suddenly flashed in front of Sharon, and she felt as if her heart stopped beating for a second.

However, after seeing the appearance of the person who came, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Because that person was her brother Mephistopheles, who arrived in front of her before Rayleigh.

"Brother Murphy, be careful!"

Sharon hadn't finished her words, and the heart that had just been put down was hanging again.

Because a figure appeared behind Murphy.

"what!"

That person—that is, Rayleigh—drew his sword as he rushed over.

Just as Sharon was thinking about how to deal with the other party, she suddenly felt something rubbing against her waist.

It's a hand.

The hand transferred heat to her body through her nightgown, and the heat gave her a strange feeling.

The strange feeling made her body tremble uncontrollably.

And her face flushed unconsciously.

Sharon raised her head and looked at the owner of the hand.

It was Brother Mephisto. He just touched his waist, and then...

And then... nothing was done.

Murphy simply pulled out the dagger Sharon had been hiding there.

And the touch on her waist just now was just an accidental touch.

The hand left after pulling out the dagger, and Sharon couldn't help but feel a little lost.

...Lost?

Why am I lost...

Sharon was stunned. She didn't know what this strange feeling in her heart was.

But she didn't think about it any further, because the sound of swords clashing brought her back to her senses.

She suddenly realized that she and Meifeige were still in crisis.

As for Murphy, he had actually felt the sharp attack from behind before Sharon reminded him.

However, even though he reacted quickly, he still had no way to fight back because his weapon was still in Gralin's hands.

"..."

At that moment, Murphy had already thought about it thousands of times in his mind.

He remembered that although he didn't have it in his hand, Sharon must have brought it.

Murphy reached out his hand to Sharon's waist, and then found what he wanted there.

Although he seemed to have rubbed against something soft and smooth, he didn't have time to care about the comfortable feeling.

Because the silver crisis from behind... is approaching.

He turned around and took out the dagger in his hand. Then, relying on his premonition of crisis, he used the force of turning to point the black dagger in a certain direction.

"clang!"

The silver light and the black light intersected, splashing out brilliant flames.

The collision between the blades separated them instantly.

Murphy thrust the dagger forward with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to completely tear the man in front of him apart.

This time, it is definitely not a simple thing to try out your skills.

However, it was in vain.

Because it's too short.

Compared to a long sword, a dagger is too short.

In the world of martial arts where attack distance is everything, how much impact does the difference in weapons between the warring parties have on their users?

There is no doubt that the shorter side will be at an overwhelming disadvantage.

Murphy suddenly heard the sound of clothes rubbing and a sharp blade being unsheathed behind her.

It's Sharon, and she wants to help Murphy.

"Stay there!"

Murphy hurriedly stopped Sharon.

Because with her current strength, if she were to face the man in front of her directly.

will die.

--throat!

The silver light made a sound of piercing the sky, and approached again along a tricky trajectory, with the tip of the sword heading straight for the side.

Then Murphy used the dagger in his right hand to lead it away from its original trajectory.

Murphy's heart was beating violently, which meant that his body was running at high speed.

A drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead.

Dagger versus long sword.

With this difference in attack distance, if you don't get close to the opponent, you will never have a chance of winning.

But...that's not the point.

"Guards! Where are the guards?!"

"Someone come quickly! Go catch him!!!"

Listening to the loud shouts downstairs, Murphy couldn't help but click her tongue.

Dickens had recovered from his initial confusion and began calling for the guards in the castle.

For Murphy, the most difficult part of the current deadlock is actually the man he is fighting with - Rayleigh from the Reinhard family in the royal capital.

It’s not that I can’t beat him.

Although he suffered a lot of disadvantages in terms of attack distance, after all, he was using a dagger while the opponent was using a long sword.

But in fact, as long as there is enough time, or in a 1V1 environment like the arena, it is not difficult to defeat Rayleigh.

But this is the crux of the problem.

There is simply not enough time now, and Rayleigh and I are not engaging in a fair fight between swordsmen in the arena.

If Rayleigh had just focused on defense and relied on his weapon advantage to drag himself here.

Then when the knights stationed in this castle surrounded them, there would be no chance for Sharon and he to survive.

'Damn it! What now?!'
