The story of the black silk female knight

Tia waved her hand dismissively, seemingly unconcerned.

Valensa breathed a sigh of relief and was about to continue when she noticed Tia suddenly hugging her, her crimson eyes watery.

"Uh, Tia?"

"Hmph, I don't object to you treating Senior Gina, but..."

Tia snatched the small medicine bowl from Valensa and forcefully pushed her down:

"I want to personally do the work of extracting the essence of bioenergy!"

"Ugh...but...but..."

Valensa glanced furtively at Gina, who was still unconscious, her voice a mixture of shyness and excitement:

"Gina is right here, isn't this... isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"It's ok."

Tia's crimson eyes gleamed with a deeper smile, burning brighter as if on fire:

"Don't forget I'm a spellcaster too... This level of magic depletion isn't something that can be woken up by the slightest noise. Don't worry, Senior Gina won't know anything."

"But……"

"No buts! It's settled!"

Tia suddenly became firm, while Valensa remained coy and reserved, though her body language quickly betrayed her...

. . . . .

After resting for about three or four hours, the medical team resumed work.

"Amazing! That's incredible!"

After giving Gina another physical examination, the head of the medical team was full of amazement:

"Lady Gina's magic has recovered so much, and her body has received ample nutrition without any side effects from using potent alchemical potions... Did you use some kind of divine artifact, Lady Valensa?"

The head of the medical team was also a priestess. Although she did not know that Valensa was a Knight of the Temple, she knew that Valensa held a high position in the church, so she made this guess.

As usual, it would be fine to attribute this to the grace of the sun goddess, since in the hearts of most believers, Her Majesty the goddess is omnipotent.

But Valensa had already discussed the story with Tia, so there was no need to change it now.

She smiled and gently shook her head:

"No, it was Tia who used some method from the Sage's Tower to replenish Gina's mana... I didn't understand the specific method, my magical talent is very poor."

"The methods of the Council of Sages... I see."

The head of the medical team nodded in realization, seemingly yearning for such a miraculous method. However, as a priestess of the Church of the Sun, she could not join the Sage's Tower, so it remained just a thought.

After expressing their surprise, the head of the medical team provided the definitive test results:

"Lady Gina is recovering very well. At this rate, she should wake up today. But I still strongly suggest that Lady Gina rest in bed for a few more days. She was seriously injured this time. Even with timely treatment and mana replenishment, she absolutely cannot fight again for a short period of time."

"Yes, I understand. I will speak to Lord Drake."

Valensa nodded.

Having settled Gina's matter, Valensa continued patrolling and maintaining vigilance within the camp, patiently waiting for Gina to wake up before asking her about the details of the attack the previous night.

In the afternoon, before Gina had even woken up, Valensa received another bombshell.

Princess Elseris is coming to the front lines to comfort the soldiers, and her first stop is Bizk Town!

Chapter 59 Damn Competitive Spirit

On New Year's Eve, Princess Elses sought out Valensa and Tia to ask them how to avoid being married off to a man by her father and brothers.

One of the solutions Valensa and Tia came up with for Elthers was to visit the soldiers on the front lines during the autumn war to boost their reputation in the military and increase their influence.

Elsers had actually wanted to come to the front lines for a long time, but this year the attacks from the wild beasts were particularly fierce, and the elite warriors were breaking through recklessly, so even hiding behind the fortress was not necessarily safe.

Therefore, Elsers's father, the king, and her brother, the crown prince, had always disagreed with her idea of ​​going to the front lines to comfort the soldiers, and Elsers couldn't show too much stubbornness.

But when she heard the news that her girlfriend was seriously injured, Elseris couldn't sit still anymore. She once again resorted to her old tricks of crying, making a scene, and acting cute, which she hadn't used in years. Finally, she got the support of her slightly soft-hearted crown prince brother.

Elseris had no intention of wasting any time. After receiving permission, she immediately led a team of royal guards through the teleportation array to the military camp in Bizk Town.

Although everyone knew that the princess was only there to visit her girlfriend, she was also there to comfort the soldiers on the front lines, and she would certainly give the soldiers plenty of benefits.

Upon arriving in Bizk, Elserse immediately ordered her royal guards to temporarily take over the defense of the granary and granted leave to all combat personnel, including Valensa.

Only combat personnel are given leave; civil servants like Tia still have to continue working—Elsers can't help with the logistics coordination of the nearby major fortresses at all.

Of course, it is wartime now, so even on leave, the soldiers cannot leave the camp. They can only sleep in and have a little alcohol.

Elsers brought a large amount of food and wine, and held an open-air banquet right in the camp, allowing the soldiers to eat and drink to their hearts' content.

She also brought two song and dance troupes, all of whom were beautiful and hot young women, who performed songs and dances to entertain the guests at the banquet, and would occasionally select a few lucky soldiers to dance with.

It's a very simple and direct way of offering condolences, but it's very effective.

The demands of ordinary soldiers at the grassroots level are actually not high.

If they have vacation time, delicious food, good wine, and beautiful women with great figures and faces to look at, they will be very satisfied and remember your kindness.

At the very least, Elsers's actions have made many low-ranking soldiers, who had never even heard of her before, realize that the royal family actually has a princess who is so considerate of her soldiers, which has greatly boosted their morale.

Shortly after Elsers arrived in Bizk Town, Gina finally woke up.

Before Princess Gina could get intimate with her girlfriend, Valensa quickly came over to inquire about the details of Gina's battle the previous night.

Unexpectedly, Gina immediately gave a wry smile, even mocking herself, and kept muttering:

"I was too presumptuous... I'm not that kind of genius at all."

While giving a self-deprecating smile, Gina looked at Valensa with a very complicated expression.

Valensa was somewhat puzzled.

Fortunately, Gina was a graduate student, and controlling her emotions was a basic skill for her. She quickly returned to normal and answered Valensa's questions one by one.

Tia and Elsers were also listening in.

First, there's the issue Valensa is most concerned about—the two wild beasts last night were indeed just lurking in the dense forest beside the official road, with no intention of attacking. They only attacked after Gina used magic to summon them first.

"Their condition is strange, how should I put it..."

When Valensa asked Gina about the beast's behavior at the time, she hesitated for a long time before answering:

"It's hard to believe, but they seem to be... spacing out in the dense forest?"

"daze?"

Valensa frowned immediately.

Both Tia and Elsers expressed that they found it hard to accept.

"You mean... two beast warriors with elite lighthouse-level skills were lying in ambush in the woods beside the road our transport convoy would inevitably take, without launching an attack or engaging in any other suspicious behavior, just standing there doing nothing?"

"Yes, I'm pretty sure they're just spacing out."

Gina recalled for a moment, and this time her tone was quite confident:

“My magical senses detected them long ago. They must have been spacing out, which is one of the reasons I chose to attack them first… The opportunity was too good to pass up, I couldn’t resist.”

"Could this... also be a trick by the wild beasts?"

Tia guessed:

"They deliberately pretended to be dazed and weak to lure you into attacking first, making you careless, and then suddenly launched a sneak attack to injure you?"

"I...I really wanted to say yes, but actually that's not the case."

Gina then gave a wry smile:

"If they are really just pretending to be dazed and deliberately showing weakness, they can easily launch a sneak attack before I make a move or while I am casting a spell, instead of having to take the first wave of ice arrows head-on."

Also... they're both actually stronger than me; I'd have a hard time winning a one-on-one fight. If they wanted to attack me, they could just attack directly; there's absolutely no need for this kind of trickery."

"Etc., etc……"

This time, it was Elsers who suddenly interrupted, glaring at her girlfriend with displeasure:

"Nana, you mean... you knew those enemies were very strong, yet you deliberately provoked them? How could you be so reckless? Have you forgotten what I told you before? When you encounter enemies, only bully the weak, don't attack the strong. If you can't win, retreat immediately. Don't worry about food and your men if you can't protect them. Your safety is the most important thing!"

"Uh...yes, I'm sorry."

Amidst Elser's scolding, Gina lowered her head timidly, her already petite body curled up into a ball on the bed.

"This time it really was my fault... It's all because of that damn competitive spirit, sob..."

"Competitive mentality?"

Tia raised an eyebrow, seemingly understanding something, and glanced briefly at Valensa:

"You wouldn't happen to think that you can do what that guy, who is favored by Her Majesty the Goddess, can do, would do too?"

"Ugh... Yes, that's what I think."

Gina nodded, looking quite dejected.

"A few days ago, Valencia easily took down three Lighthouse-level elite beast warriors in a support battle by using a sneak attack."

"If the junior is so amazing, how can the senior be outdone? I felt I could do it too... and then I spotted two beast warriors spacing out, looking like easy targets for a sneak attack... sigh."

The ambush was barely successful; both beast warriors were killed, but Gina herself was severely depleted of magic and had three holes pierced in her body, almost losing her life in the process.

After learning some combat details from Gina that the ordinary soldiers didn't know, Valensa stopped disturbing the princess and her girlfriend's intimacy.

Chapter 60 The Female Knight Begins the Hunt!

Valensa was still concerned about the two elite beast warriors that Gina had encountered.

Two elite soldiers, who were definitely the main force of the war, finally broke through the enemy's defenses after countless friendly forces sacrificed themselves as cannon fodder. Instead of seizing supplies or attacking strongholds, they hid in the woods by the roadside and stared blankly.

This is clearly abnormal; there must be a conspiracy!

Valensa had no idea what the specific conspiracy was, even though she had enhanced her intelligence and comprehension.

These wild beast warriors are truly ruthless; they have no fear of death whatsoever, leaving not even a complete corpse for the humans, without giving them a single clue.

Even the most brilliant reasoning requires certain clues.

Without enough clues, even the most famous detective wouldn't help.

Unable to deduce what the beast was trying to do, Valensa changed her approach.

Whatever the beast's conspiracy may be, it needs executors.

If all the beast warriors who broke into Fran territory are killed, then theoretically any of the beasts' schemes can be prevented in advance!

In that support battle where she easily killed three people, Valensa had already proven her formidable combat power, showing that she fears no one below the Radiant rank. Otherwise, the command would not have assigned her to defend Bizk Town alone.

In fact, Valensa didn't really like this kind of defensive mission, but considering that the combat strength of the front-line scouts was really tight, and they wished they could split one person into two, Valensa could only prioritize the overall situation and obey orders, even if she didn't like it herself.

But things are different now.

Princess Her Highness, concerned for her injured girlfriend, personally visited the front-line camp to comfort the soldiers, accompanied by a royal guard of one hundred men.

This guard has no soldiers below the Pearl level, and more than a dozen Lighthouse-level guards. They are enough to serve as reinforcements for a major fortress, and more than enough to defend a town like Bizk.

This is also the main reason why the command dared to give the soldiers at the Bizk town camp leave, allowing them to drink, eat meat, and watch beautiful women singing and dancing without worry.

Valencia was naturally on leave, but she didn't want to take leave.

Firstly, Tia didn't take a vacation, as there was no point in her taking one herself. Secondly, she was still worried that the elite warriors of the Wild Beast Clan might have some kind of conspiracy.

The day after Elsers arrived in Bizk Town, Valensa took the initiative to report to the command headquarters, hoping that she could freely hunt the beast warriors who had forcibly broken into the country.

Command quickly approved Valensa's request.

So for the next few days, Valensa spent her time in intense hunting and fighting.

With mobility that can reach nearly 1.2 times the speed of sound under normal conditions, and super endurance that allows her to run continuously for a whole day without getting tired, and can continue running after just taking a shower and having a meal, Valensa has a very wide target range.

The grain transport routes within a hundred kilometers to the left and right of the town of Bizk were all within Valensa's search and support range.

Thanks to Valencia's efforts, the missions of each transport team have gone very smoothly these past few days.

They no longer needed to actively destroy the food in the convoy when attacked by the beast warriors; they could simply send out a distress signal and hold out for a few minutes.
