But despite my best efforts, all my preparations fell apart so easily.

These new attackers must have used some kind of magic, a wide-range attack that destroyed the land mine swords and tore up the surrounding land.

They slipped past the lightning fence swords that I set up to slow them down with the dirty trick of teleporting, then had the nerve to topple them by moving the very ground itself.

And then there was the old knight who attacked me. He was even stronger than the adventurer from the previous battle.

His face under the helmet was clearly creased with wrinkles, yet the strength and sharpness of his swordsmanship showed no signs of being dulled by age.

It was a good call to practice with my swords after the previous battle against those adventurers.

Otherwise, I probably would have been cut to pieces.

The man was a master of swordsmanship.

And clearly, he was a veteran of countless battles.

In terms of brute strength, Battle Divinity gave me the advantage.

But he had enough experience and talent to make up for that with ease.

I couldn’t let my guard down for a second, but I couldn’t focus solely on the old knight, either.

Because the mage who teleported the knight over to me was attacking me from a distance.

The two elderly men had me pinned down, and when a spell blew a hole through my head, I knew I was on death’s doorstep.

But luck was on my side: a sword that I threw half reflexively managed to hit one of the soldiers and kill him, and even more luckily, that caused me to level up and fully recover, which was the only thing that could have saved my life.

It was a truly one-in-a-million stroke of luck.

If anything had gone even slightly differently…

The thought alone makes me shudder.

The only reason I’m alive now is because I got lucky.

And that’s the only reason I was able to get away, too.

My vision was swimming with red, my consciousness fading.

But I somehow managed to hold on to my senses and get through it.

If I’d lost control, I have a feeling I would never have been able to get it back.

I’m hanging on to my sanity by a thread.

I had to string together all the reasons I needed to leave and run away, or I would have given in to my violent fury and lost myself to a reckless rampage.

In that situation, I’m sure I could have beaten the old knight and the old mage.

However, that victory would only lead to my own destruction.

It’s all right.

I’m fine.

I can still think rationally like this.

I haven’t lost my mind yet…

“Hff! Hff!”

It gets harder to breathe, so I stop running.

Since I’ve been dashing at full speed, I’m completely breathless and worn out.

But I’ve probably gotten far away by now.

I covered a significant distance, so I doubt my attackers could have kept up with me all this way.

Just as I breathe a sigh of relief, a beam of light grazes my cheek.
