I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated

What the hell is going on?

「GHaaaaaa!」

「Gyaaaa!」

「Hiiigghh!」

My daughter――my beloved daughter, Velmeria, was laying waste to the knights. For some reason, her whole body was covered with light blue scales, and she looked almost like her ancestor like Frederick, but that was definitely Velmeria.

Whenever the transformed girl waved her arms, huge water bombs shot out and shattered the bodies of the knights, and when she swung her magic sword, which was broken in half, shock waves were released and cut up many adventurers.

「Don't fall back! Continue the attack!」

「Damn it! Why i can't hit it!」

「Why I can't see that attack coming!」

At my command, my men unleash their attacks, but none of our attacks hit. All of them were either evaded or shot down. Even if it did hit her, the power was greatly reduced, and the slightest of wounds were healed by instant regeneration.

The girl was now is an enemy of the royal capital. I must order my men to defeat her. But I can't defeat her. I wouldn't be pleased about that……No, is that really my daughter in the first place?

「Fucking lowly insects! Don't mess with me!」

She looks like my daughter, Velmeria. But what's inside is something completely different, isn't it? Ii doesn't just mean that she is getting stronger.

「Hyahahahaha! Diee Diee!」

What is that? What came out of my daughter's mouth was a high-pitched, grating voice that didn't sound like a man or a woman. Clearly, something different from my daughter was moving her body. That was all I could think.

「Sigh, General! Wh-what should we do…!」

It was one of the platoon leaders of the knights who asked for instructions with clinging eyes. The second-in-command was originally waiting at this location, but he had already lost his life in the attack by Velmeria.

His words probably had two meanings: Are we going to continue fighting at the cost of further sacrifice and Is it okay to attack my daughter?

But my answer remains the same.

「Keep up the attack! We have the royal castle behind us! If we run now, it may turn to the king and the people!」

The people and the king. I must not spare my daughter's life in the face of my mission to protect them both.

「Ha, Haha!」

「The adventurers, knights, and magician who have scattered to various places will surely come running! Until then, endure!」

「Is it not possible ask for help from the royal castle?」

As the platoon leader said this, he looked up at the royal castle behind him.

The most elite of the guards must still be in the royal castle. The best knights are gathered from each knight order. The commander in chief of that group is known to be the strongest in this country. He is said to be as strong as the Hundred Swords and the Hariti.

However, there was no way that we could ask them to go into battle. Their mission was to protect the king. Their place is the place where the king sits. If there was only one enemy, there was no way that they would leave the king's side when the enemy was in full force, as they were this time.

In the first place, they are the shields, and it was our job to defeat the enemy and protect the people. That is the enemy we must deal with.

「Starg. Can you see it?」

「Yes sir…Not all of it…But it's unbelievable」

「It's that bad huh?」

「I'm sorry master, but your daughter is truly a monster right now」

Starg, one of the knights serving our Bailleys family, mutters with a pale face. He has high combat power and possesses a high-level appraisal, so I always kept him by my side as my guard. It seems that this Starg took his time and managed to finish checking the abilities of Velmeria……

Starg, a veteran knight, is frightened? Starg, who bravely fired his bow even when standing in front of a sub-dragon?

「First of all, I couldn't appraise that broken sword. It must be a very high-ranked magic sword」

「Is that so……」

Could that be the sword of blind devotion - fanatics that the Black Lightning Princess was talking about?

「Also, I cannot measure your daughter's ability at present. The value is probably over 1000. With my appraisal, even i could appraise Lord Zephyrd of the Skywall」

「So, in terms of ability values, she's more than a rank A adventurer……」

「The skills are also enormous. It has nearly 100 high level skills such as Sword King Skill, Sword Saint Technique: Lv8, Ocean Magic: Lv8, Instant Regeneration: Lv8. He also possesses several unique and extra skills, and to my eyes, all I can see are Sword King Technique, Divine Dragon Transformation, Fire Absorption, Herculean strength, Swift steps, Chantless magic, Magic Control, and Spirit Control, but I'm sure there are more!」

The rest of the skills seemed to be in line with the high-ranking rare skills. If it hadn't been for the words of my trusted Starg, I would have laughed it off.

「What is that……? How is it possible for a person to become that strong in such a short period of time?……」

「Her state are fanaticism and Divine Dragon Transformation. Either one of these could be the cause of your daughter's condition……」

Divine Dragon Transformation! I remember hearing about it. I believe it appeared in the mythology of the dragon people, as told by Tirananaria, the mother of Velmeria.

It is the name of a super being that has evolved from the dragon man, and is positioned like a high elf for elves. The conditions for their evolution are not known, and only a few have been confirmed in the last 10,000 years, but it is said that they definitely exist.

And legend has it that they fought the High Elves head on and ended up going toe-to-toe.

What a nightmare. Not only did my daughter turn into an enemy, but her fighting strength is such that even rank A adventurers are hazy? If she really was at High Elf level, it would not be surprising if she had rank S level strength.

However, as long as the opponent had the devil's card, the fanatic sword, it was no surprise that anything could happen.

「Oi! Sent a messenger immediately!」

「Whe-where to send?」

「To the royal castle! Tell the king to evacuate immediately!」

「U-understood!」

I understood that this was not an opponent I could win against. Even if I add multiple rank A adventurer-level forces, there is a possibility that we won't be able to win. The five rank-A adventurers currently in the capital that I know of are Zephyrd the SkyWall, Forrund the Hundred Swords, Fran the Black Lightning Princess, Eihwaz the Dragon Binder, and Ruga Mufuru, the captain of the Royal Guard. They are the ones who can be called upon and gathered at the same time.

Even if you are in the royal castle protected by barriers, you are not safe. Let the king escape, then save as many people as possible. After that, leave everything to the strong.

All we can do is being left behind and earn more time.

「We'll keep her here as long as we can. Put your life on it」

「Yes!」

「Yes sir!」

The only saving grace is that the morale of my men is high. They responded to my orders with motivated faces, even when I was telling them to die.

It would be a shame to let these men die here, but it can't be helped.

I selected the youngest soldiers I could find and sent them out as messengers to various parts of the royal capital. The purpose of this is to convey my message that the enemy is formidable and that we need more than one rank A to win. This way, my fellow generals will be able to take over after I am gone.

「I will come out too」

「Ha!」

「If only Master Demitris were here…」

The platoon leader's murmur was overheard.

「Master Demitris huh」

The only Rank S adventurer based on the continent of Zilberd, Demitris the Immovable. He is a martial artist who can kill a hundred enemies in an instant without taking a single step.

It is said that he still continues his training by traveling around the magical regions of the continent while using his own dojo in a small country in the south as a base.

He may be a difficult old man to deal with, but he is definitely a good man and has been helping people in many countries. He would be the most reliable person in such a case, but we had no information where he was currently.

「Don't mind with what's not here」

「I'm sorry, sir」

「No, it's fine. I had thought about it too. But we can't rely on Demitris, who we don't know where he is. We'll take care of this!」

「Ha!」

He scolded his subordinates and himself, and was about to go out to the front.

「I'm sorry I'm not the old man Demitris, but am I not good enough for you?」

「Huh?」

What the hell is going on? I didn't feel any sign of him at all! But there was a large demon man standing behind me, looking very relaxed. I could tell just by looking at him. He was no ordinary person. That was exactly the feeling I had when I met His Majesty the Beast King.

The big man pulls out a huge sword from his back. This sword is not just a magic sword either. The overwhelming magical power contained within it almost pressured me.

「I'll help you. Orraaa! Gravity Blows!」

The big man swung his sword down on the spot, and Velmeria, who was far above, suddenly began to fall. It was as if she was being drawn to the earth by an invisible force.

Then my daughter's body slammed into the earth with great force.

「Guaaaaah!」

Today, for the first time, I think that was the only damage was dealt to Velmeria today. Who the hell is this guy!

「Now, how long can I keep this up……?」
