Chivalry of a Failed Knight Volume 12

towards the opponent for a moment. That was what she worked out.

But what she worked out was splendidly betrayed.
- Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

- Kuhh…!!
According to Xiaoli’s plan, 《Laevateinn》would be swung down many times
to follow her as she was in a low position.
And the bedrock would be silently sliced off each time, sinking the blade.
――But,
The physical strength of《Crimson Princess》wasn’t worried about that at all.

The bedrock, which was like tofu or something, didn’t make the speed of the
slashes become weak, she pierced and gouged it with all her strength.
This physical strength that defied accepted norms.

And the toughness that acted as if the paralytic poison was nothing.

“No way!”, at that moment, Xiaoli got a premonition and observed Stella as
she slipped through the flame tornado with a paper-thin difference.
――And.

(Like I thought…)

Stella’s skin was flickering from inside.
《Dragon Spirit》

The Noble Arts that activated the power of the dragon and her own ability
which she saw at the last《Seven Stars Sword Art Festival》.

Stella made her whole blood boil with this Noble Arts and disinfected
Xiaoli’s poison with heat.

Page 243 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

The physical strength of a dragon kept in her body came to attack her.
- I, see! There’s no dragon that becomes submissive with one dance of the
scorpion!
- Even if you noticed it, it’s too late already――!
She announced and stopped running after Xiaoli who ran from place to place
close to the ground.
- 《Dragon Stomp》!!
- Waaa!?
At that moment, a severe earthquake that bounced back from Edelberg
assailed Xiaoli.
Xiaoli, who originally escaped shaving close to the ground in an unstable
posture, couldn’t withstand this.
She lost her balance and collapsed from the face on the ground.
She couldn’t fall safely because her arms were broken.
She had no choice but to fall.
――Stella would get victory in that inevitable moment.
- Yaaaaaaaaaaaa――!
She held her sword above her head.
A blow with all of her might that cut Xiaoli who collapsed on the ground.
That――Stella, who showed a flawless pursuit so far, now showed
negligence for an instant.
She strayed from a determined spirit and the long sweeping stroke had too
much strength added in it.

Page 244 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

《Toutetsu》wouldn’t miss this little, small gap!

(I’ll destroy you here!)
- Fuh!

She kicked the ground the instant her body was about to collapse on the
bedrock.

She made her body cartwheel vertically to go away from Stella by
interlocking her shoulder and neck region――and slightly scraped Stella’s
chin who stepped on her reach with the iron ball attached to her foot.
- Ah!?

A blow that slightly grazed the tip of the chin.

There was no damage from the blow, but its power was brutal.
When her chin was shaken, the cranium on the opposite side of the support
called cervical vertebrae and the brain tissue inside of it were violently
shaken like a『lever』.

As a result, a concussion was developed and her legs and loins lost strength.

Although she imitated the power of a dragon, the structure of her cervical
vertebrae was the one of a human.
Naturally, with the concussion that was generated, there was no reason she
could pursue her in this state and her knees fell right where she was.

- S-she’s good…!

Tatara expressed unintentionally as she watched Xiaoli’s countermeasure.
The moment when she lost both arms and seemed like she was all rolled up in
Stella’s space.

Page 245 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

She didn’t miss Stella’s small gap and completely pulled through the
predicament.
- The number of useful thing she had used so far is unusual, isn’t it? It’s a
pain she couldn’t decide the course of events now.
Tatara grimaced, saying so.
But《Black Knight》Ascaride, who stood next to her, saw another tactic.
- 《Toutetsu》dealt with this predicament at the last moment… that is
definitely amazing. … However, it’s not like Stella-san didn’t expect a
development in which she would get away.
- What?
- In this current “attack and defend”, Stella-san made《Toutetsu》move from a
position outside the camp where she could hide herself on the cliff to the
center of the camp which is a flat level ground with no place to hide.
There――
- The perfect place to release her killer technique.
As if affirming the words of Ascaride,

- Pierce the heavens, purgatory flames.
Stella recovered from the concussion and raised《Laevateinn》high.
At that moment, a bright red fire pillar blew up, rising high in the sky
from《Laevateinn》and raised the intensity of light and heat as it devoured the
thin atmosphere,
――And focused it on a single sword of light.

Page 246 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Yes. Stella made Xiaoli move to the center of the battlefield while in this
offense and defense.
To the level ground away from all the cliffs.
Her most powerful Noble Arts.
To not let her run away from the mowing down and mowing down and all
in this entire battlefield which was released by that technique.
Xiaoli also noticed Stella’s aim.
- That incredible sense of intimidation is being pointed at me again…
She was admired by it at the《Seven Stars Sword Art Tournament》, how
magnificent her power was.
Moreover, the opponent in front of her was troublesome, she didn’t do sloppy
attacks while betting her power on them.
During that offense and defense, Xiaoli took the option of hiding herself
under a cliff and let it go past.
She probably had a move to go underground using poison again, but maybe
that wasn’t good enough.
That measure was shown to the opponent once.
Naturally, Stella would predict it and go after the drilled hole.
Then, she couldn’t escape. It literally became her grave.
She was cornered. By a really wonderful attack. Yes,

If《Toutetsu》was really a poison user――

Page 247 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- I’ll tell you something. A great talent sometimes has a harmful result!

◆◇◆◇◆

- …!?

Xiaoli stepped firmly on the lingering snow with bare feet and posed
dauntingly at the center of the camp.

With that figure, Stella felt.
Her presence had changed.

From the presence she felt from her eyes that was facing her with total
devotion to escape.

She didn’t know what was going to happen from this moment.
Was it a countermeasure, perhaps?

She didn’t know. ――In that case, it couldn’t be helped even if she thought
about it.

She broke both hands of the opponent, closed the last escape route which was
jumping down the cliff and chased her away to the center, this was the best
chance to attack her with her most powerful killer technique!
So, don’t hesitate!

Page 248 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- Burn to nothing! 《Karsaritio Salamandra》――――!!!!

Stella overcame her hesitation and swung her sword of light.
It horizontally mowed down the whole battlefield with a huge sword of light
and heat and burned everything to nothing in orbit.
A tsunami.
She didn’t let her go. There was no means to escape.
The tsunami of light gulped down the battlefield and everything and
approached Xiaoli who stood stock still,
And swallowed Xiaoli.
――At that moment,
- !?
A strange feeling returned to《Laevateinn》 in Stella’s hand.
The magic sword knitted by magic power hit something hard, heavy and
immovable, it felt like it got stuck.
The sword that should have been swung in a horizontal line was stuck in the
middle.
As if, as if it was something like――like she hit thousands and thousands of
gigantic iron ingots.
“How?” Stella stared at the center of the hot flash,
――Xiaoli stood there.
And caught the blade of《Karsaritio Salamandra》with the left hand that

Page 249 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

should be broken.
- W-Whaa!?
Stella was confused by that scene.
The reality in front of her was so incomprehensible she couldn’t understand.
Why the arm of Xiaoli moved?
Why was she able to stop her《Karsaritio Salamandra》?
She had no technique to build up her strength until just now.
Then why――?
The answer to that confusion would be shown soon.
Xiaoli pulled her right fist to the side as she caught《Karsaritio Salamandra》
with her left hand,
――And made bluish-white sweltering heat dwell in the gauntlets《Banki》.
That sweltering heat focused as if covering《Banki》as it swirled.
Eventually, she covered her right arm with that bluish-white light and
heat――and Xiaoli announced.
- Karsaritio――.
That spell was,
(There’s no doubt, this power is…!)

- Salamandra――――!!!!

Right after Stella understood the trick, the answer of the reality of what was

Page 250 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

happening in front of her,

A heat flash of blue light was released in a straight line towards Stella from
Xiaoli’s fist.
- 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜!!!!
Stella undid her《Karsaritio Salamandra》right away and caught it, shielding
against the heat flash that approached《Laevateinn》.

At that moment, an unprecedented amount of heat and shock hit Stella.
An overwhelming power and amount of heat that couldn’t be forced back
even by Stella in a《Dragon Spirit》state.

And the fact she showed how she healed her arm in the twinkling of an eye.
She was totally sure. This was the same as her――power of the《dragon》.
- That’s…! You were a《Faker》…!
《Faker》

An ability system that belonged to the conceptual interference group and a
generic name for the ability users who had the ability to imitate the abilities
of their opponents.
Despite she was rumored to be a wind user, she used poison abilities.

And used the power of the dragon now even though she was using poison
abilities.

There was one inexplicable answer.
That Xiaoli rewrote her ability during combat using a《duplication》ability.

That was the only thing she could think of.

And,

Page 251 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- Correct! I gain the abilities of the owner of the magic power I touched. This
is《Banki》’s fighting technique《Goheitaishuu》!

Xiaoli affirmed Stella’s awareness again.
- In other words, this flame is a dragon flame! Even if Stella-dono receives it
upfront, you won’t escape unscathed!

To defeat a dragon, she had to become a dragon.

Xiaoli obtained the power to reproduce the highest predator of mythical
worlds, her great ability by making《Banki》consume the magic power of
Stella.
An unprecedented battle with an enemy with the same power of the dragon as
hers.

Stella’s own ability bared its fangs at Stella.

Before that reality, Stella,
(If it has come to this――it’s not a problem!)

- Fuh!
Stella stopped fighting against《Karsaritio Salamandra》that pressed herself
from the front.
She no longer stood firm there, but relied on how she was pushed and shoot
her body out to the sky from the end of the camp.
Together with that, she developed《Dragon Wings》.

She turned around quickly and dodged the heat flash of blue light――
- Yaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

She slashed at Xiaoli with a super acceleration thanks to her wings.

Page 252 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

This counterattack wasn’t because of simple bravery.

Stella knew.
That《Faker》 had two fatal flaws.

In that case, then taking on her power of the dragon was certainly a hard
thing to do.

Stella’s power of the dragon had the highest power among numerous
abilities.
However, it didn’t matter if a《Faker》copied the ability of the opponent as
perfectly as possible, she won’t surpass the ability of her opponent, it was
no more than a copy. That was absolute.

She couldn’t surpass the quality of the ability. That was her first flaw.

And the other one was the difference in dexterity regarding the ability.

If she had the power to be able to imitate that ability perfectly or could master
it, then it was another story.

Based on what she had seen so far, Xiaoli mastered it very well as expected,
but――she healed her arms with《Dragon Vitality》and released a heat flash
now, everything was an imitation of Stella. She didn’t go beyond that. She
didn’t surpass Stella. After all, it was impossible to surpass humans who
lived with their abilities for decades in a single battle.
That was the fatal flaw that the ability called《copy》had.

(Until now, I was bewildered by her strange power, but――)

The trick came to light.

The bottom was visible.

Page 253 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

The power of the opponent was an inferior copy of hers.

In that case――there was nothing to be afraid of anymore!

- Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Stella swung down the sword that accelerated thanks the flame wings to
strike her body and all.
Contrasting with her, Xiaoli pulled the fist that pushed out《Karsaritio
Salamandra》once,

- … Why am I not quavering even when my ability was copied? It looks like
you can’t create something other than the ability that was《copied》 which
ends up being inferior to the owner of the original one in terms of dexterity,
meaning that this is the flaw of a《Faker》. That’s what I certainly understand.

To affirm Stella’s judgment,
- However――making light of the reality that I became a《Shisen》while
having such faulty abilities is your mistake!

She caught the blade that Stella swung down with all her might with one
hand.
Not only that――she easily put《Laevateinn》between her index finger and
middle finger.

-!

Stella was astonished by this fact and more than anything, by the sensation
she felt on the sword she swung downward.
Even if she《copied》the power of the dragon and was endowed with the same
physical strength as her, she shouldn’t be able to catch the physical strength
of her opponent so easily with the same power. She shouldn’t be able to

Page 254 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

catch it.

But Xiaoli literally didn’t shake in the least.
Without the most minimal trembling, she caught the strong attack of Stella.

(What on earth is this power…!?)

It was the same even if she tried to pull out the blade that was caught.
It was heavy.
An unbelievable power grabbed《Laevateinn》.

This physical strength rose way above herself,
- Don’t tell me that you mastered the power of the dragon more than me…!?
However, Xiaoli denied it with「you kidding?」and laughed at Stella’s
amazement.
- A copy is just a copy. No matter how well I do a《copy》, there’s no way I’ll
surpass the real thing and that I’ll quickly fill the difference in dexterity
regarding our abilities. The difference between these two is very big. … But
the difference between the real thing and the copy is insignificant――in front
of my great motherland and 4,000 years of Chinese history!
- !?!?

Immediately after, the body of Stella that floated in the air with the flame
wings sunk.
Xiaoli pulled《Laevateinn》held in Stella’s right hand towards herself.
And hit her chin that fell from above with the left one as she pulled Stella
towards herself with the right one.

- Gah!?

Page 255 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- We’re the people who have been investigating martial arts thoroughly for
4,000 years. That wisdom covers all the differences. We fighters and you are
very different just by standing on our feet!

Stella, whose chin was hit, developed a concussion and lost her flying ability.

And yet she didn’t fall to the ground, she managed to land on the ground with
both feet.

She stood upright, without being able to take a defensive stance,

- You just stay on the ground. However, I just captured you by biting at the
ground with the fingers of both feet! Yes, with the physical strength of the
dragon you know well! When you rubbed me, my body was already the same
as a part of the Edelberg Mountain! In other words, my current mas is equal
to this mountain! No matter how much of a dragon you are, you can’t move a
giant mountain! This is Shishoukengenbu style――《Taizan》 !!!!

The chudan-tsuki of Xiaoli sunk into Stella’s pit of the stomach as if being
sucked up.*

*TN: Chudan-tsuki is a karate move (mid-level punch).

《Taizan》was a firm support that captured the ground with only five fingers.

The mass of Edelberg became a part of her own mass with it.

This overwhelming mass went far beyond the dragon focused in one point,
the pit of Stella’s stomach, and pierced it.
- ――――〜〜〜〜〜〜〜, ga, haaa!?!’

Stella’s body was easily blown off a few dozen meters, slammed against the
rock face of Edelberg that stretched to the summit and collapsed.

Page 256 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

From the face, without being able to land safely.

However, this was natural.
The impact caused on Stella’s pit of the stomach, if compared to a non-
Blazer, was as if a steel pickaxe was swung on her abdomen with all her
strength.

Her flesh was crushed, her bones were broken and her entrails burst open.

Her outward appearance kept the shape of a person, but what was below her
skin was already in a minced meat-like state.
An extreme pain enough to take her life. It was impossible to bear it.

- Ah, gaah! *throw up*! *Throw up*! It huuurts!

She would be chased unless she got up fast.
If she was chased, she would end up being killed.

Even though she knew that, she could only turn around while spreading blood
and vomit as an unprecedented severe pain she had never experienced spread
from the abdomen to the whole body.

――But,
(She’s not coming, after me…!?)

She already resigned, that there was nothing more she could do, but time
passed, 10, 20 seconds passed, she repaired all the internal organs destroyed
with the matchless healing ability《Dragon Vitality》and yet, there was no
additional attack from Xiaoli.

“What’s the meaning of this?” Stella finally stood up and faced the enemy,
- Oh my… however, this is a bit problematic, isn’t it?

Page 257 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Xiaoli stared at her fist with a complicated look on her face as she stood in
the same place as before.

What was with her incomprehensible behavior? Stella stood up on her feet as
she coughed violently and readied her sword again,

- *Cough*… *Cough*… what… what’s problematic...?

She asked and Xiaoli replied.

- Well, I thought that Stella-dono’s power was such an amazing thing.
Though if I use this thing against Stella-dono――I’ll end up killing Stella-
dono.

-!

- Martial artists lose their lives and physical functions as a result of duels. I
don’t think that’s a disgraceful thing, but still, I feel that avoiding that
situation is the best.

Xiaoli told her that, looked at Stella with a deadly serious expression and
asked.

- Can you surrender here and now?

- Don’t get carried away just because you landed an outrageous thing on me!!

She accepted the end even without doing it herself.

This manner of speaking boiled the power of anger in the wounded body of
Stella. But,

- Why are you so obstinate? Even Stella-san knows that she can’t win. I by
no means think you don’t know an ability of this degree.

- Guh.

Page 258 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Those words were told with an adult-like face that had difficulty with a child
who didn’t give in.

Stella couldn’t deny this.
She felt it not long ago.

The fear as if looking into hell and that she felt when she faced
a《Desperado》.

The fear became stronger.
Just like the darkness darker than night sprouting from the abyss and that
swallowed her deeply――but,

- … Shut up!

Stella shook off that image franticly,
(It’s okay…! You can win…! The opponent is the same as them!)

- Uaaaaaaaa!!!!

“You can win, you can win, Stella” She cheered up herself with baseless
words.
To not yield to the gravitational pull of the《Desperado》.
To continue being the《Crimson Princess》.

She desperately supported the self-confidence that seemed to sway and
swung the soul blade as she raised a war cry to believe in herself.
She wielded《Laevateinn》to the limits of her strength and to the limits of her
breathing to hack her to pieces.

She recklessly didn’t shake off the dark clouds that fell into her hands on her
way to her destiny.

Page 259 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

That didn’t have neither technique nor tactics. If an ordinary swordsman were
to do so, that sloppy attack would be full of gaps.

However, if Stella, who had a superhuman-physical class did it, the story
would be different.
If she were a normal Blazer, she would be swallowed up by the turbulence of
steel formed by her overwhelming physical strength.

――But,

- It looks like you are so impatient and your eyes are so clouded that you
don’t know when to quit.
Stella wasn’t facing an ordinary opponent.
《Toutetsu》Fu Xiaoli carelessly dealt with all the tornado-like random attacks.

Without moving from there, and with her right hand only.
Without receiving any graze, she repelled them or caught them like driving a
small noisy fly away.

Stella felt an absurd mass with ever reaction that returned to her arm.

The majestic natural mass called Edelberg couldn’t be moved by one person.
That made Stella’s heart feel it was all in vain as she recklessly continued
slamming her sword against it,

- !?!?

That absurd mass struck Stella’s temporal region abruptly.
The body of Stella was lightly sent flying to the side and rolled on the
ground.

- A, u――――!

Page 260 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

The impact, which was comparable to《Haboob》 ‘s fist that hit her head,
cracked Stella’s cranium. An external wound that would have killed her if she
were a normal person.

But Stella rapidly fell safely, got up and readied her sword again.
Because an external wound of this degree caused no damage to Stella
in《Dragon Spirit》.

However, while physical damage was healed immediately, that didn’t apply
to mental damage.

It appeared as puzzlement in the scarlet eyes of Stella.
Stella couldn’t understand it. What was done to her now?

Xiaoli did nothing.

She was sure of it because she saw the opponent in the distance, in her sword
reach and who could hear to her long breathings.
She only defended against her random attacks, but didn’t show an offensive
posture.

Nevertheless, this damage.

It was exactly like an invisible blow.
Stella re-thought this strange situation. Either way, just getting close to her
was dangerous.

――If so,
- 《Satan Fang》!!!!
Stella changed to offense.

She gave form to a seven-headed fire dragon with her magic power and

Page 261 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

instigated Xiaoli.

The one who didn’t find out a means to escape from the magic attacks from a
long distance.

No――it wasn’t that.

(Xiaoli is copying my power of the dragon now…!)

In that case, the remaining flames won’t be enough unless she focused them
like with《Karsaritio Salamandra》.
In fact, Xiaoli didn’t even catch this《Satan Fang》.

She just stood still as if it were nothing, her body received it while being
showered with it.

For Xiaoli, who wore the power of the dragon and made all the boiling,
incandescent blood circulate in her whole body, this flame was no more than
a breeze that made her hair, which grew too long during imprisonment,
flutter.

But Stella was fully aware of that.
《Satan Fang》was purely the opening move. In order to add a fatal blow, she
had to get to her back with《Flame Veil》which made her body invisible
thanks to light refraction when the opportunity to make her lose her visibility
with flames――

- ――!?

However, even if she swung it downward from a certain blind spot, it didn’t
lead to Xiaoli.

She could catch it. And just like before, she put it between two fingers.

But this time――as she turned her back on her.

Page 262 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

(H-How?)
- Your face says “how did you know?”
- …!
- I didn’t feel a『feeling』that would defeat me from that flame. Its
appearance was just like a fake flame. A fake bloodlust. It’s a bit regrettable
that you think you can deceive me with such a thing.
Xiaoli said so as she put her strength into the fingers that seized《Laevateinn》,
As if snatching the sword away from Stella.
Stella opposed her so that it weren’t snatched away and pulled the sword
towards herself.
But this clearly was Xiaoli’s trap.
The moment when Stella pulled it, Xiaoli let the sword go.
As a result, Stella’s body bent backwards due to her own power and created a
big gap.
Xiaoli bared her fangs at that gap.
She turned around and did a roundhouse kick with acceleration.
The blow mowed down Stella’s side.
But Stella was also the owner of unusual reflexes.
Her collapsed body forcibly recovered with the power of all the muscles of
her body and caught the roundhouse kick with the handle of the sword.
――She caught it.
- Gahaa!?!?

Page 263 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Although that was how it should have been, the impact penetrated Stella’s
body.

No, rather than penetrating her, it was transmitted to the sword that received
the kick and exploded in her body.
That was a wonderful performance of Chinese martial arts and Kurogane
Ikki’s《Dokuga no Tachi》was based on that concept.

A shintoukei of a head house that destroyed the opponent’s body from the
inside through an impact. *

*TN: shintoukei literally means soaked strength.

No matter how sturdy the armor of muscles the dragon wore was, its entrails
were soft and fragile.

Stella vomited blood and crumbled down due to the impact that trampled
down such fragile entrails.

(She has so many ways to attack me in close combat…)
She tried to avoid them and tried to catch them to the best of her ability, but it
was completely meaningless. Xiaoli made her realize that reality,

- You’re still not going to agree with me?

She asked while looking down on Stella with a troubled facial expression.
That was contempt and pity.

There was no worse insult for a knight than that.

But――she couldn’t even show she was insulted.
- Guh…

She gritted her teeth due to the hopeless difference in real strength.

Page 264 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Dark clouds called “I honestly give up” covered her fully.
But still,
- Not yet, not yeet…!
Stella kept struggling in resignation.
Towards the inexperienced enemy that didn’t stop such useless resistance,
- In that case, please become aware of it as soon as possible.
Xiaoli sighed once and finally kicked Stella whose knees became loose.

◆◇◆◇◆

Ten minutes after that.
The face-off of the two could no longer be called a battle.
Stella’s driving was unable to even barely push or shake Xiaoli,
- Shuu!
- Gah!
Every time her drive was prevented, only the counterattacks of Xiaoli
continued to hit Stella.
Not being able to defend against them.

Page 265 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Naturally, Stella didn’t attack again and again recklessly.
She tried all possible attacks she could think of over the last ten minutes.
Long-range magic battle. Close-range slashing battle. All techniques that
blended both sides.
But all of that wasn’t a worry for the 4,000 years of Chinese history.
She didn’t ward them off, she didn’t kill them off――she caught them all
from the front.
She caught them, without wavering.
Because the center of gravity of Xiaoli, who seized the mountain, was at the
bottom of the bottom of Edelberg.
Her state was exactly like《Taizan》.

*TN: Taizan means large mountain.

China was like a majestic mountain rising in Shandong Province.
Yes, what Stella did was equivalent to trying to bisect a giant mountain with
a sword. Certainly, her sword was a hard sword.
If she wielded it, the atmosphere was shaken, and if she slammed it against
the ground, it would tremble.
But those were small words.
Although her herculean strength smashed a part of the rocks of the
mountain’s surface, she couldn’t bisect the mountain rooted in the ground.
Stella’s defiance didn’t bear a single fruit, it was wasted effort.
No, it wasn’t just wasted effort.
Because Taizan, which was what Stella faced now, changed into a person and

Page 266 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

counterattacked.

Stella caught the hard counterattacks again and again, her body danced in the
air and struck the bedrock.

And now too――

The catcher Xiaoli didn’t give a step with her pivot leg and only the
challenger Stella continued rolling and being repelled.

Tatara, who watched attentively this one-sided development, grinded her
teeth.

- ! That moron, why is she getting counterattacked so easily…!?

- She’s not.

The one who denied so was Ascaride standing next to her.

She was better at martial arts than Tatara, she could see the advanced
techniques used by Xiaoli.
- 《Toutetsu》is good at that. She hides the origin of her counterattacks with
the sword and arm of Stella.

- … “Blind”, huh.

Yes. Xiaoli hid all her counterattacks behind the arm and sword of Stella who
launched slashing attacks.
Blind was――the so called technique 『sudare』in karate.
The real identity of the technique that Stella felt as『invisible blows』.

In other words, Xiaoli showed a half fed up expression to Stella who got up
every time she was thrown down without being sloppy――as she adjusted
the blows until the very last minute to not kill her.

Page 267 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Even if the degree of consideration powers to the opponent was reduced, the
pressure of the heart wasn’t lowered.

She was prepared to counterattack any possible counterattack with all her
strength at any time.
(She has no openings…)

Her degree of perfection as a samurai was too high.

She couldn’t win.
That was more than evident.

Stella herself understood that as well as she saw it from the beginning.

However,
- … A … aa.

Stella, who was kicked and punched on the temporal region and rolled on the
ground, still tried to get up.
Supported her body with《Laevateinn》as her legs shook.
Her figure was riddled with wounds.
The healing powers by means of《Dragon Vitality》hit the bottom a long time
ago, and her whole body hurt due to the one-sided attacks she received and
kept being showered with over ten-odd minutes. The internal bleeding that
appeared on her exposed skin was black and went beyond blue, it indicated
that her lower part had been destroyed but it wasn’t fatal yet.

Tatara shouted without enduring Stella’s awfully miserable appearance.
- I-it’s enough, Stella! Don’t you know the moment to quit!?

-…

Page 268 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

But Stella didn’t stop.
She went towards Xiaoli with staggered and unreliable steps.
She could no longer raise the sword on her own, she dragged it as if it were
heavy.
Ascaride and Tatara noticed Stella’s face in profile.
- This is no good. She’s not conscious anymore.
-!
Yes. Stella’s scarlet pupils had no longer the power of will in them.
Her pupils became muddy in darkness as they were already losing the light.
Then standing up and not stop fighting was her instinct as a knight?
Or her pride as the《Crimson Princess》?
However it was, any other attack, even if it were adjusted, would reach her
life.
- Fuck!
So Tatara rushed in order to stop them. But――
- You can’t!
The moment when Ascaride grabbed Tatara’s shoulder,
- Gaah!?!?
Tatara was attacked by a sharp pain as if a blade was directly thrust into her
heart.
Tatara fainted in agony and collapsed right where she was due to the great
pain.

Page 269 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- What, the hell is this…!?
- This is the power of《Testament》. Our hearts are already struck with a
wedge of oath. If you try going against it, it will tear off your heart…!
- Fuuuck…!
Tatara cursed at it as she sweated cold sweat.
Certainly, if Ascaride hadn’t stopped her right away, her heart would have
been torn off by an invisible blade.
The pain was enough to make her believe so.
(For fuck’s sake, that moron made me accept that worthless promise…!)
She just moved forward a little like this to try helping Stella.
With this, she by no means could stop the fight.
What should she do? ――Tatara made that thought go around desperately,
- You’re so kind.
-!
A voice addressed her.
When she turned her eyes to the direction she heard the voice from, what was
there was a pure white that shone dimly in the dark night.
The world’s strongest swordsman stood, holding her swords that resembled a
pair of wings in her hands.
- Edelweiss…
- The hell are you doing here…?
Edelweiss told to the surprised Tatara and Ascaride,

Page 270 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- I failed to predict that《Toutetsu》would come. I will take care of the
situation.
Then, she run through them as the wind and headed to stop the battle.
This was a relief for the two of them.
Edelweiss didn’t take the vow to『not help Stella』.
All that she promised was that she would have a match with her the moment
she met the conditions.
In that case, Edelweiss could stop Stella.
Her reckless violence that should be called suicide.
At that moment――
「「!?!?」」
A black wind blew through Tatara and Ascaride.
And the black wind caught up with the white wind at a tremendous speed,
- !!
The blade that was much darker in the night was swung down, aiming at
Edelweiss’s nape.
A murdering long sword that had no hesitation.
However, the surprise attack that took her by surprise, the stroke of the sword
couldn’t be sunk into the world’s strongest swordsman.
Edelweiss easily caught it with her pair of swords.
However, she was very perplexed.
That wasn’t a surprise to the surprise itself――

Page 271 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- ――Ikki.
Due to the astonishment that faced the human who launched a surprise attack.
Yes. The person who stopped Edelweiss’s steps from protecting Stella.
The man who skillfully shifted his body and stood in Edelweiss’s way from
helping.
Because he was her boyfriend――《Worst One》Kurogane Ikki.
- I won’t let you do that. Edelweiss-san.

◆◇◆◇◆

Ikki suddenly turned his blade to Edelweiss to obstruct her way.
Tatara raised a bewildered voice at his behavior.
- H-hey! What the hell are you doing!? She’s trying to help Stella.
- That’s why I stopped her.
- W-what…!?
“Why are you doing that when you’re Stella’s boyfriend?”
Ikki replied that question.

Page 272 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Page 273 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- I thought she could do it at first. Stella has clearly lacked coolness since the
battle in Caldia. So… I suppressed Stella who went to the extremes, I thought
that my role was to protect her, and I stuck to that for that sake. Because…
the people in her country shouldn’t want Stella to be hurt for their sake.

Stella said in Caldia.
“A strength to drive away the threat of Vermillion even if I sacrifice herself.

If I don’t have that, my life has no meaning”

But, that was wrong. It was a mistake.
The gentle people of her country challenged themselves as a country for
Stella, they didn’t wish for that.

So, if Stella stuck to her role as a sword that protected them and tried to take
risks, she had to be stopped.

Because it was an act that pleased nobody.
However――

- But… I realized my mistake when I made the vow on your sword.
『To everyone who is worried about me, please believe in me, I won’t say
anything no matter what. I don’t have the qualifications. But… please. Let
me believe in me』
Stella surely said so at that time.

“Don’t believe in me, let me believe in me.”

Yes, she begged.
Ikki became aware of that supplication.

Stella knew deep down her that nobody wished for her recklessness now.

Page 274 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

It was natural if she thought about it. Although she was profoundly loved to
that extent, it didn’t mean they couldn’t understand why they loved《Stella》
and not《Crimon Princess》.

However, and despite this, Stella stuck to continue being《Crimson Princess》
and tricked even herself with a believable outward appearance whether it was
as a duty of the royal family of as the sword of Vermillion.

Why?

Ikki didn’t know that.

But he understood that she had an『ego』she wanted to stick to even if going
against the feelings of the people who were important for her.

- If Stella decided to do this for the people of Vermillion, then I would have
stopped it by all possible means. But it’s not like that. She’s fighting for
something she herself can’t give up. She’s fighting for her『ego』she can’t
give up…!

No matter how unreasonable the people around her were, abandoned hope or
even if she faced the harsh reality, she still wouldn’t forget the feeling of
regret about that reality.

That was exactly his own way of life and the one that she loved.

In that case, now that he could share her feelings, how wasn’t he going to
push her back!?

- So I vowed to your sword. No matter what happens from here on, as long as
Stella continues fighting her acceptance without giving up, then I’ll believe in
her『ego』…! And repel all the will that stops her from fighting to keep
believing in her!

Even if that action was criticized by all the power of the world, even if the

Page 275 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

worst ending visited because of her actions, if that was the one and only help
that would be useful for his beloved and strongest partner――

- I will stop you this time with my weakness…!

Ikki thrust the black blade at her and blocked her path.
Edelweiss stared at his figure,
- Is, that so…?
She realized her decisive mistake.
For Edelweiss, the《Rule of Grace》that connected Stella and the others, was a
way to bind Stella to this land more efficiently.
But this boy vowed to sacrifice himself for the pride of《Crimson Princess》
and he was resolved to even lose his beloved girl and his life.
What a poor move.
He ended up pulling out that resolution. At the end of the day, only she
looked down on the《vow》.
The pupils of Ikki in front of her had a strong conflict: he wanted to run off
and help Stella right away, but they had a light of determination that would
crush her to death firmly.
He wouldn’t take back his words.
An opponent that wouldn’t be moved aside.
In that case,
- If you say so much, then keep your word.

Page 276 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Questions and answers were a waste of time.
Edelweiss had to make her blade run on Kurogane Ikki to save Stella.
Naturally Ikki would respond to this attack.
The highest speed was at the same time the initial speed, and the exchange of
slashes like flashes of light would begin,
But――
(I knew it, he’s weak!)
There was no struggle.
The silver flashes dominated the black flashes.
Like lightly wiping away an annoying twig that blocked one’s way.
There wasn’t a difference in ability between the world’s strongest swordsman
and――a mere swordsman.
A few days ago, as Edelweiss herself had said, Ikki’s sword skill was already
a divine skill in the realm of the supermen.
It wasn’t weak enough to be pushed one-sidedly till now.
However, due to his fatigue――he was easily overwhelmed.
Ikki had been training rigorously for the past few days that it couldn’t be
compared with Stella.
Outside of humans’ sphere of existence, in other words, at 9,000 meters
above sea level, his body and mind had been exploited to the utmost limits.
He naturally was fatigued.
His body wasn’t the only fatigued. His magic power too.

Page 277 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

In other words, Ikki was now exhausted both physically and mentally.
Of course, there was no way《Ittou Shura》was usable.
It was nothing for Edelweiss to push aside an opponent like that.

- Fuh!

- Ah!?
After a number of crossings, 《Intetsu》was repelled by the end of the left
sword, the guard of Ikki crumbled.

Edelweiss slid her right sword into his emptied torso.

A slash to cut the torso in half that would decide the match.
(I will apologize for making light of your readiness afterwards. But… I don’t
think that the story of《Crimson Princess》has to meet its end in this place)

In that case, she had to save her. She was the only one in this place who could
do it because she didn’t vow to《Rule of Grace》to not help Stella.

With that determination, Edelweiss shook off his sword.
Ikki tried to bring back《Intetsu》, but it was too late.

If his opponent were an ordinary user, he would have been able to endure it
and catch it with his triumphal handle, but his opponent was《Wings
Abreast》.

A sword user of extremely fast sword techniques like him.
He couldn’t defend against it.

The flash-like slash was directly absorbed by the virtually empty side of his
torso,

Page 278 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- ――――――――!?!?
Immediately after, the expression of Edelweiss froze with astonishment.
The slashing-in-half-technique of《Testament》 certainly reached Ikki’s torso.
But――it didn’t advance anymore.
She couldn’t shake it off.
And the moment when the blade of Edelweiss stopped,
- ――!
A black flash of light interrupted the instantaneous rivalry.
Yes, Ikki brought back《Intetsu》to counterattack and not to defend from the
beginning. His aim was to sever the collarbone from the shoulder of
Edelweiss with a diagonal slash from the shoulder.
Edelweiss, who was astonished by the situation that was beyond her
expectations, took too long to deal with it,
- Kuh,
But still, she managed to defend with her left sword in time because she was
the world’s strongest swordsman.
However, and while she defended against the diagonal sword slash from the
shoulder right away, she couldn’t held her ground.
The body of Edelweiss was repelled greatly to the back.
Yes, ――she was repelled.
The world’s strongest swordsman was repelled from the sword range which
she dominated.
- W-what!?

Page 279 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- 《Wings Abreast》was forced back… at that distance…!?
Tatara and Ascaride couldn’t hide their surprise in front of such an
unexpected reality.
However, the astonishment of Edelweiss, the person herself, didn’t compare
to the two of them.
It wasn’t a surprise like it said that she was defeated.
The hard impact that returned to her right hand holding the sword.
Edelweiss understood that impact.
And what Kurogane Ikki had done now.
(This is magic power protection…!)
A defensive technique that used the stamina the magic power had against the
impact.
This wasn’t surprising in itself.
It was common for Blazers to use protection against physical impacts of
magic power.
Stella also stopped his long sword with magic power that leaked out from her
body during a sham battle with Ikki.
In the《Seven Stars Sword Art Festival》, Moroboshi released magic power
from his whole body to dampen Ikki’s fierce attack.
The phenomenon itself was the same.
――But, this was natural when Blazers had enough magic power.
That wasn’t the case for Kurogane Ikki.
Originally, his magic power was so weak and fragile that he couldn’t even

Page 280 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

mitigate physical impacts that had no magic power.

There was only one way Ikki could achieve this phenomenon.
He concentrated magic power where the blade was unleashed.

Released magic power that ran along the opponent’s blade without being a
millimeter out of alignment or merely pierced.

And the also invisible, world’s strongest and fastest drive.
She judged that she was absolutely late for that.

She had to read it through to accomplish it.

Attack and defense, attack and defense, attack and defense. The traces of the
following slashes the naked swords of Edelweiss would do in the future after
several attack and defense phases.
The blade that missed just by a tiny bit would slip and cut into the defenseless
flesh.

But the result was as she could see.

In other words, Kurogane Ikki did a superhuman feat.
- Edelweiss-san’s training gave me a hint. If I narrow down the parts that
release magic power to the limit like when I stood on the pointed end of
Edelberg, then I can protect myself using magic power like when I had a
sham battle with Stella before.

- That’s… a big discernment.

He was truly a scary boy.
Ikki denied so and shook his head to the left and right to Edelweiss who
groaned.

Page 281 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

- It’s not much of a big deal. I just didn’t have other way to live.

- …!

- To become stronger. To not give up myself. Those things were the only way
to keep living. The being called Kurogane Ikki is desired by nobody from
that household. That was what I really believed at that time at least. … So, I
was just clinging to that way of life so to speak. But Stella is different.

She was loved by everyone.

She was desired by everyone.

Even if she was just a human being with no abilities, the people of Vermillion
would have loved and treat her tenderly.
They loved《Stella》and not《Crimson Princess》.

It… should have been easier to choose a way of life that other people wanted.

But,
- Still, Stella didn’t try to cast《Crimson Princess》away! Even if her whole
body is all burned, if she fully realizes her powerlessness many times, if she’s
in front of the absolute destruction called fate, she has never tried to escape
from it, not even once. She has carried on her ideals, suffering――and
hardships all the time despite obtaining all that she wanted in no time, like a
comfortable refuge and a warm place without any inconveniences. With her
own determination, without clinging to that desperately!

Who could have that way of life? Who could imitate it?
It could be imitated by《Crimson Princess》Stella Vermillion only.

A knight with a pride of that degree that would be killed by the fate that
could overcome her?

Page 282 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

She always overcame it. For the sake of something inside her she couldn’t
give up.
He was sure of that. So,

- Don’t look down on my beloved knight…!

The moment Ikki told so.
And as if to respond to that voice,
Behind Ikki, the biggest roar resounded from the battlefield where Stella and
Xiaoli were facing each other tonight.

◆◇◆◇◆

Xiaoli noticed a strangeness in front of her a little bit before Ikki and
Edelweiss collided.

- …!

She lightly caught the slash of Stella that was released dozens of times
already with her gauntlets and released a sharp kick that pierced Stella’s
abdomen with her toes.

Page 283 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Stella’s body was easily blown away and rolled on the ground feebly without
being able to land safely.
Since then, the development continued as if rewinding the same scene.
And each time the expression of Xiaoli became grim.
(This is strange)
She had an overwhelming superiority in this battle.
Stella was exhausted to the point she couldn’t heal her external wounds
anymore, as opposed to her who had no wounds.
Her whole body was wounded, it bleed and her limbs had lost all strength.
That seemed to be the case when she kicked her abdomen moments ago.
The toes didn’t feel a hard abdomen, but a relaxed one.
The impact should have gouged the internal organs directly.
The opponent’s scarlet eyes became dark and cloudy, they left only a small
light in them.
Maybe she lost her visibility already.
That slight light would fall apart with another blow.
(… Did, did she repeat that last blow dozens of times?)
And even now, Stella tried to get up in front of her.
She pierced the ground with《Laevateinn》and forcibly raised her body with
her knees about to give away.
In her eyes, she kept a very small brilliance, small as the tip of a needle.
――That light.

Page 284 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

The difference in strength made her realize it was enough.
Her whole body had given up.
Nevertheless,
(This touch of light dwelling in my eyes… won’t disappear)
No matter how many times she challenged her.
Her body was so exhausted she couldn’t even walk straight, she reduced the
distance as she dragged along the sword and swung it.
However, there was no way she could release a sharp slash in that state.
It ran out of momentum, she just surrendered to the weight of the sword and
her body swam with a sloppy motion.
There was no trouble to dodge that sword.
As it should be,
(Even so…!)
- 〜〜〜〜!
At that moment, the expression of Xiaoli, who caught the sword with her
gauntlet, distorted. Anguish revealed itself.
There was no way that that slash had strength or anything in it from the start.
And yet――it was heavy.
The impact resounded profoundly in her bones.
The offense and defense they’ve been doing over and over got heavier.
Xiaoli resolved in this strange situation.
(Killing is a defeat for martial arts. So I should be careful to not take her

Page 285 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

life――)

If giving up now was bad, she couldn’t help it.

If she continued doing the same thing, she would truly be capable of killing
her.

If so――then consecutive blows.

The answer she came to was to crush her consciousness completely with
consecutive blows!

- Ha!!
Xiaoli, who defended against the slash, grabbed the avoided《Laevateinn》and
pulled her towards herself.

As a result, Xiaoli greeted the body of Stella who fell forward with a kick.

She launched a vertical attack right from below the lower jaw.

She didn’t have to adjust it anymore.

A heavy blow supported by Edelberg that came back with a feeling that break
bones.

But it didn’t end there.

- ――――Aaaaa!!!!

Xiaoli attacked her consecutively with both fists.

With a barrage on her exhausted body and her defenseless head. An extreme
speed that surpassed by far the Hanshiken which was China’s pride and that
gave praise to『Two thick fists like the rain and invigorating like a bundle of
firecrackers』. It wasn’t possible for ordinary human beings to catch it with
their eyes, and the sounds that hit her flesh, only the sound of 17 consecutive

Page 286 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

hits could be heard in an instant. *

*TN: The sentence in『』is extremely weird and hard to understand.

An over excessive violence launched to a human in a hopeless situation.
Naturally, Stella’s body was directly struck by this machine gun-like
consecutive blows, bent backwards in a big way,
And collapsed as it was――no, it didn’t.
It bent backwards, she managed to not fall,
- A, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
- ――――!?!?
With that same momentum she pulled her body up she threw《Laevateinn》
violently against Xiaoli.
The biggest weapon sound tonight that shook the atmosphere.
The weight of that blow surpassed the blows that were unleashed tonight――
She vigorously pushed Xiaoli’s《Taizan》which had never been shaken in the
least so far.
Xiaoli retreated several meters as she shaved the rocks with her feet.
The slash was caught by《Banki》, so there was no damage.
But her expression revealed astonishment and confusion.
To the enemy who counterattacked despite being attacked with that quantity
of consecutive blows.
To the light that kept shining in the deepest part of her cloudy eyes.
Just like a star that continued shining brilliantly in the endless darkness called
universe.

Page 287 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

That emotion and brightness that kept supporting the all wounded Stella.
That wasn’t her pride――as the imperial family of Vermillion, as《Crimson
Princess》or her sense of responsibility as the sword of Vermillion.
Those fake things were smashed by Xiaoli’s fists long ago.
Her self-esteem for being born as an absolute strong person, her self-
confidence that was gained through training and just about everything that
was tore off by her transcendental martial arts.
But still,
There was one thing that remained in her heart.
There was one emotion that didn’t cloud the tiny brilliance.

That was――gratitude.
To her parents, her sister and all the people who lived in the country called
Vermillion.
(Yeah, that’s right)
In her vague consciousness, in which she could no longer hear anything or
see anything, Stella remembered.
The day when her ability manifested for the first time.
And the day of the event when she decided to aim for the path of the knight.
That day, she was going to see a puppet show as a part of a class work with
every one of the kindergarten and suffered great burns on her whole body due
to her overly strong powers.
That place suddenly caught fire. Naturally, she wasn’t the only one who

Page 288 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

resulted damaged.

Fortunately, there were no deaths due to the quick response of the adults, but
many people were burned and lost their properties.

The manifestation of her abilities occurred all of a sudden and regardless of
the person’s will. The very young person had no evil intentions.

Even if one got that with common sense, it would be normal to have a grudge
against her who caused the fire.

――But none of the citizens of Vermillion blamed her.

No, not only that, they kept cheering her, saying it was okay and hugged her
close as she cried, shouted and panicked due to the wounds of her body when
she manifested her ability all of sudden. The kindergarten teachers, the staff
of the theatrical company and the persons involved in the fire didn’t leave her
side even if they didn’t know when flames would spout out again.

Yes. It was really known.

That the people of that country loved the ordinary《Stella》when no one was
there.
She knew. That those persons had no reason to see《Stella》being hurt for their
sake.

But《Stella》hoped to become《Crimson Princess》while knowing so.

She was the imperial family and a knight, and so, she had to protect
everyone. She lined up the plausible deceptions that would make her and her
surroundings agree to them, pushed everyone aside who was against the path
of the knight for《Stella》and continued her fixation on being the《Crimson
Princess》.

Page 289 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

Why was that?
There was only one reason.
She understood it now.
Precisely because everything else was clearly peeled off now.

(I want to look good in front of everyone)

She wanted to be everyone’s『proud daughter』to be proud of the wonderful
people who loved and raised her and not just a crybaby that craved
everyone’s love.
That was the beginning of《Crimson Princess》.
A small pride budded from the gratitude to the many parents who lived in her
hometown.
She wanted her beloved people to see her being cool. A trivial pretension.
However, only that『ego』burned with her flames many times and even if she
was reprimanded as if giving up to the adults around her, it didn’t sway…
and now, her dispirited heart was strongly supported like this.
Only this gratitude could convince without a particle of skepticism that
giving up in front of any kind of fate was impossible.
――If that’s the case, then let’s go.
Her body still moved. She moved forward.
Her body, that was fully trained to keep this『ego』, wasn’t dead yet.
If so, and with the gratitude that kept being lighted in her heart, she would

Page 290 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

clear away the darkness that closed the road she walked with her sword.
Not her duty as the imperial family,
Not her responsibility as the sword of Vermillion,
To her father, mother, sister and the family members of her hometown who
loved an raised her,

This little crybaby that everyone loved became a splendid knight who would
throw out her chest…!!

- Pierce the sky purgatory flame.
- ――!
In an instant, 《Toutetsu》Fu Xiaoli, who stepped into her territory, saw.
How the opponent《Crimson Princess》Stella Vermillion put up the
swaying《Laevateinn》in the sky.
She already saw that posture once. She didn’t misread it.
This was the posture of《Karsaritio Salamandra》, the Noble Arts with the
greatest firepower she was proud of.
However, the brilliance of the flame dwelling in the sword had no power, it
wore no more than a weak bright red light.
Compared to the《Karsaritio Salamandra》she saw earlier, the difference was
gigantic.
But it was natural.
Stella was so exhausted that she couldn’t recover the damage from the hits

Page 291 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com

she received anymore.

She had wounds all over her body. Total exhaustion. A perfect blow in that
state shouldn’t be released.
Since she caught a perfect-condition 《Karsaritio Salamandra》 easily, this one
didn’t deserve her fear.

A valueless logic.

Such――

Such practical joke sprung out from Xiaoli’s thought.

It was natural.

That the light that dwelled in Stella’s sword now wasn’t the same that
dwelled in her eyes, the one that Xiaoli could never blow out…!

(It seems that my eyes are the ones getting cloudy now, huh)
She disdained Stella as『a weak person』who didn’t need to compete even for
their lives.

What a foolish misunderstanding, isn’t it?

She looked at her eyes.
Was that an expression that a『weak person』could do?

Since she was the owner of a superior real strength, she ended up
understanding the difference in ability whether she wanted or not, even if she
fully realized the limits of her own fate many times; and the touch of light,
that continued shining in the darkness of resignation and despair in her eyes,
aimed directly at her life.

She had it in her.
