Reincarnation Sim Game

Chapter 193 193 – On the Rooftops

By noon the next day, Lynn, Alain, and Olga stood with the commander at the front of the troops. The troops looked uneasy at Lynn’s eye-catching appearance.

“Sorry, miss.” The commander whispered to Lynn. “I know, we’ve asked you so many times, but can you really do it now? Please, put on some clothes.”

The woman sighed. “Well, I’d better get out of here. I’m going to attack from somewhere else.”

The commander had opened his mouth to speak, but Lynn hurriedly climbed a tree, then jumped from tree to tree.

“I’m going too now.” Olga also jumped and disappeared among the leafy trees.

“Well, at least I’ll stay with you guys.” Alain shrugged with a smile.

The commander spat. “Tsk, I don’t trust westerners like you at all.”

“But why are you friendly to female westerners, sir?” One of the troops asked, and his comrades immediately gasped.

“There’s no point in chatting at a time like this!” The commander snorted, then signaled to his men. “We’re off to attack now!”

Alain had to dodge several soldiers who were about to run into him and looked at him with hatred.

The archer just shrugged again.

***

Lynn landed on one of the roofs of the house, lying down and peering out. The village streets still looked quiet, without any signs of life. She glanced the other way and found Olga standing on the roof of another house in the distance.

Lynn wondered. Did the red-haired woman get here first?

Footsteps began to be heard in the distance, and Lynn took a small pair of binoculars out of the small bag on her belt. The binoculars used an embedded crystal instead of convex lenses like modern-day equivalents.

She held her breath when she found that demons of all shapes and sizes had already made their way to the path the army was about to take. Their number was more significant than expected.

The woman hurriedly got up and was about to tell the others, but she was shocked when Olga jumped at high speed, then ran through the air like she was on the ground.

Then, what happened next was something that was beyond Lynn’s understanding. Olga swung her two swords alternately, sending white light energy in the shape of a crescent moon at the demons. Lynn hurriedly used her binoculars again to check what was going on.

Those energy lights cut through the bodies of the demons with ease. The monsters retaliated by releasing arrows or jumping to reach Olga. However, Olga can dodge from one roof to another with super high speed.

However, Lynn was sure it wouldn’t last much longer. Olga might get tired and run out of mana. Therefore, although very amazed by what happened, she still turned and left the place.

Just a moment, the woman jumped from one house to another, and a dark green demon attacked her from the side. Fortunately, Lynn was still able to dodge.

“Hahaha!!! You’re still shameless. You like showing off your tits and pussy, Lynn!” The scaly demon laughed with its mouth so wide. Its appearance was similar to that of a lizard but with hands and feet like an ordinary human’s.

Lynn narrowed her eyes, observing the demon with one long horn on its left temple. The woman felt very familiar with the face of the monster.

“Zak?” Lynn held her breath, remembering her friend, who was also Rupert’s younger brother. The one who also killed Rupert.

“Haha! You still remember me!” The demon jumps up and attacks Lynn. Instead of using his knife like in the past, Zak clawed with his long nails.

“What happened to you!?” Lynn blocked the attack.

“I’ve become more powerful than before!” Zak continued to attack with his claws like a beast. “I’m not confined to a human body anymore…”

Zak was shocked and jumped far, seeing his arm was scratched and bleeding.

“It doesn’t matter.” Lynn glared at her enemy. “I’m not going to persuade you to come to your senses. I’ll beat you, dead or alive. If you’re still like this, I might kill you.”

After Lynn said that, the air temperature dropped drastically, and the sky became cloudy. And not long after, the snowflakes began to fall.

“What the!?” Zak looked up at the sky.

It was the effect of the shift in the balance of nature described by Levi.

However, Lynn was barely swayed. Her skin was unprotected by clothes, but the knife she held felt like it gave warmth to her body. She was still shivering, but not so much that she couldn’t fight.

So, the woman now took the initiative to advance first to attack. Zak, who wasn’t ready, was late to dodge, causing him to get scratched again.

“Why!?” Zak is starting to get overwhelmed because he has to dodge Lynn’s attacks that are getting faster. “I should be superior!!!”

Lynn herself wondered how she could move so fast. As the weather got colder, she felt her body become lighter and lighter.

“Arrrghhh!!!” Zak screamed loudly because his body was hit by the woman’s slashes. The demon really couldn’t put up a fight. “I won’t lose!!!”

Zak clawed at Lynn’s face, causing her to stumble backward. She survived because she was still protected by the magical barrier.

This time the demon attacked with more brutality, making Lynn even more desperate. She had to jump on the roofs of other houses to escape.

“Hey, don’t go, bitch!” Zak continues to chase the woman. “I will kill you!!!”

Lynn could wait for an opening, but she knew it wouldn’t last long. As time goes on, Zak’s claw power and speed increase. It only took a little while for Lynn to get hurt.

Zak kicked Lynn in the waist, sending her rolling on a roof. The demon jumped again, about to thrust his sharp nails into his enemy’s body.

However, an arrow-shaped bluish light hit the demon’s hand, destroying it instantly.

Zak’s body fell and smashed the roof. The demon’s voice of pain echoed loudly. Lynn turned her head in the direction the light energy was coming from.

“Sorry, I’ve never done this!” Alain shouted from one of the rooftops, a few feet from Lynn’s location. His two hands were holding a smoky bow. “So, my level of accuracy is far from normal!”

Suddenly the weather cleared. The overcast clouds in the sky just disappeared, showing the sun scorching the skin. Zak’s scream now sounded even ferocious, as if it didn’t come from a creature from the mortal world.

“You should check on that friend of yours, Lynn,” Raymund said over the communication device.

Lynn got up and looked into the hole where Zak had landed.

The demon’s body began to enlarge, and his eyes turned red. His face showed less and less that he was a human, but more and more like a monster, with a long nose and fangs.

“You must defeat him immediately.” Raymund continued. “Or things will get worse. I know he’s your best friend, Lynn…”

Alain landed by Lynn’s side, peered into the hole, and grimaced. “Well, I feel like I can beat that abomination with this energy arrow of mine.”

“No.” Lynn held Alain’s hand, which had raised the bow. “Let me do it.”

The archer raised an eyebrow. “Okay, then.”

Lynn sighed. She felt she could do more with the surge power of the temporary Divinity she got. After seeing the energy arrow that Alain had done earlier, she felt like she was doing something similar. She just needed to focus on channeling her mana into the blade.

“Could you back off, please?” Lynn gulped, still not sure she could do that. However, she felt compelled to do so so Zak could die quickly.

After all, Zak was her best friend, and now he looked miserable. Lynn wants Zak to be free from that suffering.

Alain shrugged, then left. Zak’s body grew bigger, and the roar of the one-armed monster became more deafening. Lynn closed her eyes, focusing on her legs and knife. Her weapon flashed brightly, and the woman retreated.

“I’m sorry, Zak.” She had a grudge against Zak in the past, but now her mind was filled with memories of that man. Her tears started to fall one by one.

The woman opened her eyes and ran, then jumped up high, holding her knife. She swung her knife just as her body swooped down on the monster.

A vertical streak of light appeared and split the demon’s body in half, splattering blood and organs everywhere, something that was impossible with such a small knife.

Lynn, who had just landed in a crouched position, could only remain silent, letting her body be drenched in blood. Her tears were mixed with the thick red liquid.

“Oh, Zak.” The woman’s voice was hoarse. “I’m sorry I couldn’t save you.”

From a distance, the sound of clashing weapons and screams began to echo. Lynn still wanted to stay there, mourning her friend who had just died at her own hands. However, she had promised to carry out this mission to completion. Therefore, she got up, wiped her tears, and left without looking at Zak’s corpse.
