Female Knight Simulator, I am full of righteousness!

"Could this woman withstand a punch from Doris?"

The thought suddenly popped into Loria's mind.

When she saw Doris repeatedly screaming "Help!", she felt that the situation was even more bizarre.

Anyone who didn't know better would think Doris liked this kind of thing and was deliberately playing role-playing games.

That's it.

Since Doris is afraid, let's find another way to deal with these assassins.

Loria felt this was a good opportunity to test her new abilities.

“Relax,” she yelled at Doris.

Anger immediately flashed on the faces of the assassins: "Trying to pull some tricks? Do you think we're pushovers?"

Loria said confidently, "So what if you figured it out? Can you defend against it?"

"court death!"

The assassins' attention was entirely focused on Loria, trying to see through her subtle movements, completely forgetting about Doris, whom they were controlling.

[Prophet Experience]

A silver glint flashed in Loria's eyes.

Before the assassins could react, a huge crescent-shaped arc shot out from Doris's chest.

The assassin standing closest to Doris was instantly cut in two, and the rest screamed and tried to escape.

But Loria was prepared, and successfully restricted their movements using the Shadow's limb-reversing effect.

To ensure everything went smoothly, upon seeing the woman who had initially coerced her, she immediately consumed 10% of her mental energy and used Dark Moon Shadow to completely freeze the woman who was jumping the most enthusiastically.

"What's going on?"

Terrified screams suddenly erupted.

Loria smiled without saying a word.

The real show has only just begun. Since these assassins won't give her a chance to investigate slowly, she'll have no choice but to resort to force.

It's just that this place isn't open enough, otherwise she would have directly used Dark Moon Legacy, which has a very large attack range.

"Stop her! Stop her quickly!"

Screams rose and fell as Loria gripped her greatsword and drew ever closer to the assassins.

When she was within arm's reach, she punched the assassin who had initially suggested taking Doris hostage.

This punch was delivered with all his might. After the punch landed, the assassin flew out through the large glass window next to the corridor, leaving behind shards of glass. He lay on the ground, barely breathing.

"Monster, monster!"

The entire house was awakened by the screams. Several people tried to ambush Loria, but they were all fooled by the illusions created by the Mask of the Moon.

It took them a while to come to their senses. When they finally opened their eyes, what appeared before them was Loria, holding a greatsword and smiling broadly.

Boom boom boom!

After the three sword strikes, no one on the ground could stand up anymore.

Loria was in a great mood.

She already knew that her newfound ability was powerful, but she never expected it to be this powerful, allowing her to effortlessly eliminate nearly ten C-level assassins.

She walked up to Doris: "Are you alright?"

Doris grabbed Loria's collar, trembling.

Loria shook her head helplessly. Doris was good in every other way, but her gluttony and cowardice caused her a lot of trouble.

"Let's go find Earl Norton first."

Walking down the corridor where dozens of maids were watching, Loria found Earl Norton curled up on the sofa.

She said, “My lord, those assassins had ill intentions, and I have dealt with them all. Don’t worry, I know you were just deceived and for a moment forgot the importance of the Enka Stone. If you are willing to entrust the Enka Stone to me for safekeeping for the time being, then I will pretend that what you did before never happened.”

Since they had come to her without her permission, Loria decided to be more polite to Earl Norton, her master.

Earl Norton was breathing heavily, and Loria could even see the hot breath he was exhaling from under his nose.

One second, two seconds, three seconds... tens of seconds.

suddenly.

Earl Norton abruptly stood up, waving his right hand excitedly: "Do you know what you've done? The assassin from the Hidden Heads died here, which means my cooperation with them is completely over. My future, my future, the future of the Norton family, the future of the Norton family—you've single-handedly sealed it all off. You are a sinner, you are the greatest..."

"Shut up!"

Loria interrupted Earl Norton with a loud shout.

She didn't know if Earl Norton had given up entirely, but she was very unhappy right now.

Did I spend a whole day traveling here just to experience what it feels like to be scolded by you?

You bastard.

Loria stepped forward and slapped Earl Norton to the ground, then stepped on his chest: "Damn it, I'm not here to negotiate with you. Hurry up and hand over the Enka Stone, or don't blame me for sending you on your way right now."

Earl Norton wanted to say something more, but his eyes immediately dimmed when he saw Loria's gaze.

"Here, I'll give it to you, okay?"

He scrambled into the bedroom, and after searching around, he successfully opened a hidden cabinet in the wall. Inside, a deep blue gemstone lay quietly.

"Enka Stone!"

Loria's eyes lit up.

P.S.: I originally wanted to make Doris the female lead, but even if she's actually in her fifties or sixties, she can't look too young. Considering this book will be missing two chapters per week on average, if I actually wrote her, the book would probably be canceled. So I had to marginalize her.

The Isolated Island Nation: 22. The Nation is on the Verge of Collapse, Demons Run Rampant [Two-in-One]

Fists are fucking effective!

The thought flashed through Loria's mind when she saw the irregularly shaped gem that shimmered with a ghostly blue light.

Nothing is as effective as simply punching Earl Norton, whether it's stealing or explaining the pros and cons.

She picked up the Enka Stone, a smile on her face, and looked it over.

The world is in chaos now, and many of the concerns she had before are no longer necessary.

It's just a disgraced count being attacked, not the emperor. The empire doesn't have time to send anyone to punish her. The emperor might even thank her if he finds out.

"You did a pretty good job."

Loria put the Enka Stone into her inventory and praised Earl Norton, whose smile looked more like a grimace.

You can't hit someone who's smiling.

There's something I need to make clear to you.

Loria's expression suddenly turned serious.

She decided to take this opportunity to explain the Hidden Leader's purpose to Earl Norton and tell him that making a deal with the Hidden Leader was pointless; exploiting them was the cult's modus operandi.

The reason she was prepared to say so much was, of course, in the hope that Earl Norton would abandon his evil ways and come to the light.

Obtaining the Enka Stone was only the first step in the plan. Next, they needed to find a way to avoid the pursuit of the Hidden Leader, which would require the support of Earl Norton.

The simplest solution would be to kill everyone in the entire manor, so that no one would reveal to the Hidden Leader that the Enka Stone was in her possession.

But Loria wasn't a real demon and couldn't do something so cruel.

She has always considered herself righteous, and although many of the things she does have nothing to do with justice, they can hardly be called evil deeds.

"Their goal is to unleash the demons from the ruins. Do you think a madman capable of such a thing would value your life so much? They need you now, so they treat you with great respect, but what if they no longer need you...?"

A dangerous glint flashed in Loria's eyes.

Upon being struck by the cold light, Earl Norton's body trembled uncontrollably.

“I have heard that Earl Norton’s wish is to restore the Norton family’s former glory, but how can you restore it if the whole world is subjugated by demons? At the beginning of the Aud Empire, the emperor entrusted the first Earl Norton with the Enka Stone because he had fought bravely against the demons and made great contributions.”

Loria shook her head and sighed, as if reminiscing about the past.

She noticed that Earl Norton remained silent, and she wasn't sure if he had taken her words to heart.

A moment later, she stepped forward and patted Earl Norton on the shoulder: "I will report your heroic resistance against the Hidden Leader and your efforts in uniting the enthusiastic masses to severely damage him to the Imperial Government."

Loria didn't know what Earl Norton was thinking, but she had said enough.

Making direct threats against Earl Norton might backfire.

She turned around and took Doris away from the large manor, but instead of returning to the chairman's house immediately, she hid nearby.

She wouldn't easily place her bets on Earl Norton.

Earl Norton is behaving himself now, but he might just turn around and go to the Hidden Head to report her.

Loria made two preparations for this.

The first step was to lie in wait nearby and observe Lord Norton's movements.

If Earl Norton persists in his folly and goes to the Hidden Leader, then kill him outright.

A person who is determined to cooperate with the secretive leaders and their group of cult terrorists will only make rice expensive if they continue to live in this world.

If Earl Norton doesn't make any move today, then Loria will have to pin her hopes on Vita.

Vita wasn't the leader of this operation, but she had access to firsthand intelligence and could find a way to silence Earl Norton before he revealed anything.

Loria was very satisfied with Earl Norton's performance throughout the day.

The humiliated Earl Norton did not leave the house. In the past, after suffering such an ordeal, he would have immediately gone to get help and seek revenge.

But today he stayed in his bedroom, a strange behavior that the maids found unbelievable, and they even thought he was having an episode.

"Then let Vita handle the rest."

Loria returned to the president's house amidst the midday drizzle.

Even though she knew the results from the simulator weren't very reliable, she still ran the simulation twice for peace of mind.
