Reincarnated in the Alternate World, I'm A Demonic Lord as Well as a Villager-Chapter 31: Eye of the Duel of the Great Swordmaster (Please keep following!)

Chapter 31 - 31: Eye of the Duel of the Great Swordmaster (Please keep following!)

This sound almost stopped their hearts.

The two stiffened for a couple of seconds, then looked back.

Cash had already leapt from the horse, drawing the long sword at his waist and tightly gripping it in his hand, with Sword Qi like a rainbow, slashing towards them.

"Danger!"

Lureya quickly pushed Shami away, instantly summoned her Storage Space, pulled out her Elf Sword from it, and blocked Cash's leaping strike.

The crisp sound of clashing blades rang through the air in waves.

Lureya fell backward directly, plunging the Soft Sword into the ground, retreating over ten meters before finally stopping the attack.

Is this the strength of a Great Swordsman?

So strong!

Shami hurried back to Lureya's side, anxiously asking, "Are you okay?!"

"So painful..."

Lureya looked at Shami with tears in her eyes, "I might have internal injuries already... Is there employee insurance..."

"This is not the time for jokes!"

"Ah hahaha!"

Cash, holding the long sword, stood on the ground leisurely, laughing: "Miss Elf Race, how come you can't handle even a basic strike from a level 45 Junior Swordsman like me? It seems your strength isn't much."

Shami and Lureya both looked over.

"Why did you suddenly attack us, Swordsman Cash?"

Lureya's expression reverted to seriousness, pulling the Soft Sword from the ground and assuming a defensive stance.

How can you ambush a seventy-nine-year-old elf like this? This is not good!

"It seems I made the right bet once again."

Cash sneered, raising his left hand that didn't hold the sword, and touched his own eye slowly.

"If it were someone else, they probably would have left already. After all, in common perception, the Elf Race are all powerful beings, and there's no need to get into conflict with them."

"But! Do you know why, after I defected from the Adventurer's Guild, I haven't been caught by the hunters they've sent for five years?"

"It's because of my eyes! I'm not just a level 45 Great Swordsman, but I also spent half my time training this skill, usually only learned by the strategist class, which allows one to see the winning chances of both combatants—Eye of the Duel. By using these eyes, I can see the odds of victory against my foes, helping me decide whether to fight or flee."

"If you're a swordsman, spend your time on swordsmanship, you bastard! What the heck is this ridiculous skill! Learning something like this is a disgrace for a swordsman, isn't it?"

Lureya's golden hair rose slightly due to anger.

"Lureya, for the first time, I feel a connection with you, as if you could say word for word what I wanted to quip. Maybe our bond is deepening."

"It's entirely because of the Demon Envoy Contract, right?"

Cash laughed again.

"What does it matter? As the saying goes, 'Know your enemy and know yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.' I never fight battles with less than an 80% chance of winning."

"Do you know why I defected? At that time, the Hero Adventurer Group I belonged to decided to challenge the Giant Dream Demon Envoy under the Demon King, and the odds of winning that battle were only 5%! If the battle happened, they would all be killed. Only fools would go to die in vain! Yet the Adventurer's Guild charged me with desertion mid-battle! Those people at the Adventurer's Guild are completely unreasonable! These years I..."

Stop, who wants to hear about your things! You're getting way off-track!

Lureya quickly interrupted Cash, "So what?"

Cash ended his reminiscence, looking fiercely at Lureya.

"Miss Elf, do you know, what is my winning percentage against you in my eyes?"

"98%!!"

"To me, now you are already a dead person."

Cash once again grasped the long sword, walking towards them, licking his lips as if he saw a delicious lamb.

"What a pity~ Miss Elf~"

Lureya became flustered, the fear of having her identity uncovered making her legs weak.

Shami quickly tugged at her, dispelling Lureya's panic.

"Lead him to the Maple Tree Clearing."

The Maple Tree Clearing is only two hundred meters away, after regaining her composure, Lureya grabbed Shami's hand, spread Spirit Wings from her back, and leapt backward at high speed.

They instantly returned to the center of the Maple Tree Clearing.

"Where did you go just now?"

Theo exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the pair of wings shimmering with white light spreading behind Lureya.

"Wings? Wow (in awe)!"

Cash and his group arrived quickly.

"I thought you were going to run away, turns out you chose a more spacious grave for yourselves?"

Cash glanced around contemptuously at the two of them.

"Cash?!" Theo was initially drawn by the Spirit Wings specific to the Elf Race and panicked on realizing, "You got here so fast!"

Cash glanced at Theo, his eyes lingered on Theo's patchworked face, discernible as a person's, but with difficulty, showing a look of disgust.

"I'm going to throw up my breakfast..."

"Humanoid Race really is acting out!"

Lureya was slightly shocked.

"Why don't I feel like that was a compliment!"

Theo tensed up, rushing in the direction of the two, wanting to hide behind Lureya and seek protection.

The next moment, he tripped over a small stone on the grass and passed out.

"Luckily he fell face down, or I would have been the first to slay such a valley of uncanny effect triggering humanoid. Just imagining that face at night gives me nightmares..."

Cash retracted the sword aimed at Theo along with his killing intent.

"Someone actually gave the same evaluation as I did." Lureya muttered.

Shami looked at the flat golden retriever with only 10 points of loyalty, worrying like a signal light flickering red, like Diga.

"Don't easily empathize with others... just like everyone has similar comments about dung, let's call it good... Betraying companions and siding with enemies because of shared topics would be a disgrace nailed to the pillar of shame for the Elf Race..."

"Rest assured, Shami, I will protect the honor of the Elf Race!"

The flat golden retriever's loyalty didn't change, and Shami breathed a small sigh of relief.

"Miss Elf, I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't care about Yili Village now and leave the villagers behind, I can let you walk away from here alive. After all, I don't want to get tangled with the Elf Race."

Cash gave Lureya an ultimatum, pointing the long sword at them, a real Sword Qi pressure only a level 45 Great Swordsman could have pressing down, with no jest left on his face, looked at them like a starved wolf ready to pounce.

"I can understand not wanting to get involved with Yili Village, I can understand not wanting to get tangled with the Elf Race, but why leave him here?"

Lureya remained cautious.

Yes, why leave him behind too.

Just an ordinary villager shouldn't be worth much.

Shami slowly raised a question mark over her head.

Cash looked towards Shami, licking his lips.

"After all, it's rare to encounter such a clean little lamb, tonight could be delightful..."

"······"

"······"

What the hell, there's a misunderstanding!

So it turns out he wasn't looking at the flat golden retriever all this time with those lustful eyes, but at me?

Shami shivered all over.
