Female Knight Simulator, I am full of righteousness!

Countess: "..."

The man rubbed the ground with the sole of his shoe, sounding slightly impatient. "Madam, do you really think that you and Miss Tracy can compete with Adeline for the Earl's position through normal means? You'd better give up that idea now. I think you know very well how biased Earl Lydilla is. As long as Adeline is around, he will never give Miss Tracy a second glance."

The Countess sighed.

It must be said that a sighing young woman is especially charming.

Loria already knew the outcome, so she wasn't flustered at all; her attention was only on the Countess's expression.

“I understand everything you’re saying, and I understand it far better than you do. A few days ago, he even sacrificed himself to help Adeline get rid of the foreign object on her body. He went to such lengths; his attitude speaks for itself.”

"So……"

The man's eyes lit up; it was finally going to work out.

“I know what you’re expecting, but I refuse.” The Countess suddenly looked up. “I tore up the note you gave me when I left the café. I said I’d thought about it for a long time, figuring out how to tell you. You were sent by my father, and receiving news from your family is something to be happy about, but I never imagined you would want me to help you murder Count Lydalia.”

The man quickly explained, "This isn't a plot..."

The Countess interrupted him: “You may have forgotten one thing. The Earl of Sainsbury is my family, but so is the Earl of Lydia. I would not harm him for your sake.”

The man said urgently, "Madam, even family members have varying degrees of closeness and distance. Count Lydalia doesn't respect you at all, so why are you protecting him?"

The Countess frowned immediately: "I didn't want to be too blunt, but since you've said it, I don't need to hold back anymore. You say that Earl Lydalia doesn't respect me, but has Earl Sainsbury ever respected me? I didn't want to marry into this family, but he forced me to. In all these years I've been here, has he ever come to see me even once?"

This time, it was the man's turn to remain silent.

The Countess sneered: "There's one more thing. Many people say behind my back that I'm stupid, but I'm not stupid, at least not as stupid as you think. Do you think I would believe your nonsense? If my husband were really dead, you would never let Tracy succeed to the title of Earl. After all, at that time we were just a mother and daughter who had lost their support. To you, we were just fish to be slaughtered."

These words really hit a nerve with the man.

He changed his previous earnest and persuasive demeanor, and his face became ferocious.

“I only called you ‘Madam’ because of your relationship with the Earl of Sainsbury. If you’re still stubborn, don’t blame me for being impolite. I don’t know if you’re afraid of death, but you must be very afraid of your precious daughter dying. Perhaps it’s not just death. Miss Tracy is a renowned beauty. It would be such a waste to kill her like this.”

A sinister smile appeared on his face.

Surprisingly, the Countess showed no sign of panic.

afraid?

afraid!

But it was precisely because of her fear that she made thorough preparations before leaving home.

"Are you planning to take drastic measures against me now? I've been preparing for you to resort to desperate measures. When I left, I specifically told Tracy that if I wasn't back by tomorrow morning, she should tell her father that I had gone to meet with people sent from our hometown. I also left a letter in my room. With Count Lydalia's abilities, he'll find out about this place very soon."

The threatening words greatly angered the man.

Despite her anger, the Countess had him firmly under her control.

Let me go now, or you'll face the wrath of Count Lydalia and the Empire.

It is absolutely unacceptable for one count to embezzle the property of another count, so the empire will inevitably intervene.

This is not what he wanted to see.

"Is Madam intending to completely sever ties with the Sainsbury family?"

"I only care about myself and my daughter."

"To give up such a good opportunity for your daughter, Madam... Sigh, well, since you don't want to compete, I won't force you."

The man waved his hand.

“I believe you know how to handle this, Madam. I don’t need to teach you. You may leave now, Madam. We haven’t met tonight.”

The countess turned and left.

After getting out of the man's sight, she walked faster and faster, so fast that she tripped and lost one of her shoes.

The man remained standing in the same spot.

If his first plan fails, then he should try a different path.

"Now is not the time to leave!"

Suddenly, a clear, cold voice rang out.

The man's expression changed drastically. Through the dim light, he saw a little girl standing before him.

It must be a little girl; she didn't look very tall in the darkness, barely taller than his shoulder.

"Aunt..."

"Who are you calling a child!"

Loria responded with her iron fist.

This punch contained a full 108 points of power!

Caught off guard, the man was punched by Loria and floated along the ground in the rain-soaked alley.

When he finally managed to stop due to the friction of the road surface, Loria was already waiting for him at the intersection.

"you are?"

"That's what I should be asking you."

Loria looked down at the man whose back was chafed raw and bloody.

The man remained silent for a few seconds.

A few seconds later, another face suddenly appeared on his face. The two faces overlapped, sometimes merging and sometimes splitting apart, which was extremely terrifying.

"Fuck."

Loria quickly stepped back.

The data fed back from the ability to judge character underwent a dramatic change at this moment, confirming that this person indeed had a serious problem.

She drew her greatsword, but as soon as she grasped it, feeling uneasy, she sheathed it and instead drew a goddess statue.

Having promised to make all the heretics submit to the goddess, Loria once again thoughtfully grabbed the goddess's head and launched an attack with her feet.

"Take this sword."

Loria charged forward without fear.

The man was clearly not on guard, and she easily closed in on him using her cat-like movements.

With her close-range slashing ability using the Blood Blade of Condensation, Loria had the upper hand.

She dodged the man's attack, then shoved the goddess statue forward, and in an instant, the goddess's feet landed heavily on the man's stomach.

"Ah~"

Even though the man didn't open his mouth, screams rang out from under the rain.

"efficient!"

Loria was glad that she had pulled out the goddess statue. This guy was obviously a heretic, and using the goddess statue to deal with him would be much more effective.

She pressed her advantage relentlessly, launching a fierce and relentless attack.

One kick, two kicks, three kicks...

As he was trampled, the man's cries grew weaker and weaker until they finally vanished completely.

hum.

Loria seemed to see a phantom detach from the man and then be shattered into pieces.

She put down the goddess statue and quietly looked at the man lying on the ground.

After a while, the man slowly woke up. He looked around and said, "Where am I... how did I get here? I..."

His gaze finally fell on Loria.

"Who are you? What do you want to do to me? Why did you bring me here?"

Loria grabbed his collar: "Acting?"

It doesn't look like acting.

However, we cannot rule out the possibility that this person is a particularly good actor.

"You know better than I how you got here."

The man was so frightened that he couldn't say a word; his body trembled, then suddenly stopped.

"I remember now, I was originally going to see Earl Norton on a business!"

Hey, isn't that the person who secretly sided with the leader of the secret faction?

Loria's eyes sharpened.

Do you remember anything else?

“I…” The man frowned, trying his best to recall, “I went into the house and saw a woman with her face covered. She glanced at me, and then, I think I got here. Ouch, it hurts, it hurts so much, it hurts so much.”

He belatedly felt a burning pain in his back, a pain that almost overwhelmed his consciousness, causing him to faint and fall to the ground.

Loria had some guesses in her mind.

The woman with her face covered must be an assassin sent by the leader of the secret organization.

The man was taken hostage on his way to the Earl of Norton’s house, which led to a series of troubles, such as secretly persuading the Countess to help them murder Earl Lydalia.

The control method probably involves relying on the weaver's power.

Whether this person is actually a member of the Earl of Sainsbury's family is hard to say.

This kind of thing has no impact on the overall situation; it's fine whether it is or isn't.

Loria picked the man up; it was impossible to let such a stranger go at this moment.

"I don't care what your situation is right now. In short, you'd better cooperate with me, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Loria made a harsh statement.

She was going to ask Kollridge for help.

But not far from where they left, the guild leader arrived. Before the guild leader could ask what was going on, Count Lydalia arrived as well.

The fighting noise was too loud.

The sound of rain could only deceive sleeping ordinary people, but it couldn't fool the chairman and Count Lydalia.
