How to Live as a Knight After the Ending

Chapter 255: Breakthrough (2)

With Calios' death, the dimensional gate energy disappeared like a candle being extinguished.

The localized typhoon that had been raging stopped, and the debris floating in the air fell down with a rustling sound.

Osian slowly descended, stepping on the falling debris.

Behind Osian, who had landed on the ground, the sound of debris falling rumbled like thunder.

Although dust clouds rose with the shock and scattered particles around, not a single speck of dust touched Osian's pure white armor and cape.

"I wonder what the others are doing."

If Calios' words were true, there was a high probability that powerful individuals had also visited the places where Diolan, Lorraine, or Edgar were located.

Osian, who was contemplating whether he should help, soon chuckled and gripped his sword again.

While caring for his colleagues was important, what was even more necessary was having faith in them.

That's why Osian believed that all his colleagues would handle things well.

Osian cast his gaze at those who had been watching the fight from a distance.

They had distanced themselves to avoid getting caught in Calios' aftermath, but they probably never thought he would actually die.

With the red force field user Calios vanishing, and the white knight standing alone on the battlefield, an indescribable thrill was felt.

Osian drew his sword and stood blocking the front, as if guarding the re

"Why? Did you think I would only fight in close combat? If you're a wizard, you should use this."

Edgar tapped his head with his fingertips.

While Edgar's fighting style was about crushing head-on with pure magical power, that didn't mean he always solved things with pure strength.

Edgar's essence was that of a wizard.

Just because he had a violent temperament didn't mean he lacked a wizard's insight and common sense.

From the moment the fight began until now, this entire area had already been taken over by magical traps Edgar had created.

Andrena couldn't understand that. Did he already anticipate the fight would last this long?

As much as she wanted to deny it, looking at the current reality, Edgar seemed to have already anticipated this situation.

"Still, I was surprised. I didn't expect you to notice and react to the trap there."

Edgar was praising Andrena, but from her perspective, even that felt like a deception.

Andrena realized that this area was already in the palm of Edgar's hand.

Edgar quietly gazed at Andrena with profound eyes.

His eyes were so deep that his intentions were hard to read, like looking into an endless sea.

As if saying that if you try to come in further, you'll die inside this.

The moment Andrena saw that, she lowered her posture further and raised her momentum.

"What?"

Edgar narrowed his eyes.

"You're going to come in further?"

By this point, one would realize the difference and retreat, but Andrena chose to step forward here.

This was not courage. It was purely a collection of madness.

Just as Andrena was about to unfurl her crouched body, something no one expected happened.

-Crack!

With a sound of something breaking, Andrena's skull mask split in half and fell off.

Her bare face was exposed as crimson hair cascaded down.

While he had roughly guessed she was a woman from her name and movements, Andrena was a delicate beauty.

"I had a hunch from the point you learned dance, but it was true."

She picked up the fallen mask fragments and sighed, withdrawing her dark magic.

Having not achieved what she expected, Edgar stared at her with a deflated look.

Andrena silently created a black mask with dark magic and put it on.

It was an emotionless mask made of dark magic.

She slowly retreated like a wary cat and then suddenly disappeared.

"She really killed the mood."

Edgar couldn't hide his disappointment. He was surprised by Andrena's burning fight spirit, but it was pure, joyful admiration.

Edgar wanted to see that. A moth-like figure that never gives up, charging forward even when facing an insurmountable wall.

Unfortunately, he couldn't confirm that this time either.

Edgar gazed at the scenery beyond the broken wall, outside the gaping hole.

The crimson lightning and storm that had been raging until just moments ago had stopped.

Osian had also ended his fight. And victoriously at that.

The only one left was Lorraine's side.

Bang! Rat-a-tat-tat!

The faint gunshots echoing from afar indicated that the fight there was not yet over.

'Support won't be necessary.'

Edgar relaxed his shoulders.

Anyway, Lorraine would handle things well.

Because of that belief, Edgar decided to focus on his other objectives.
