Transmigrated as Baron, Married with my Lovely Maid-Chapter 104

"DIE, ATREUS...!"

King Bahamut’s purple-black aura and Black Star’s black aura clashed, causing the golden floor of the throne room to crack.

The burst of aura that erupted and became increasingly oppressive signaled the beginning of the duel.

Sheiza’s figure in front of me shot out like a flash of light filled with purple-black lightning, attempting to pierce my body like a deadly dragon’s lightning.

However, the combination of my three lightning elements was perfect.

The black lightning that shot from my hand collided with Shieza and struck her.

BZZZTTT...!

ZZZAPPP....!

My black lightning and King Bahamut’s spear collided, creating a lightning bolt that instantly cracked the walls and golden floor of the throne room.

Slowly, the force of King Bahamut’s spear pierced through my black lightning, and I could see Sheiza’s face, smiling like a homicidal maniac about to brutally finish me off.

"HAHH...! JUST A LITTLE MORE...! YOUR LIFE WILL BE ENDED PAINFULLY, ATREUS VERMILLION...!"

Sheiza shouted as if victory was imminent, as her steps drew closer.

Even though we were only a few meters away, I could already feel the blade of King Bahamut’s black spear, as if it were about to rip my neck apart.

And I smiled despite Sheiza’s apparent superiority.

She didn’t realize that the black lightning was only one part of a three-pronged magic combination I had already unleashed.

This time, a black wind erupted, summoning the black lightning until it spread to King Bahamut’s spear and Sheiza’s black Ventura armor.

BZZZTT!

BZZT!

BZZZTT!

"GGHHH.....!"

Sheiza was shocked as my black lightning spread and began to slowly crack her proud Ventura armor, as did her black spear.

But she refused to give up, feeling she could still advance.

Sheiza wanted to keep charging forward, braving the wind cutter flashes and black lightning that rained down on her.

To her, as long as Spear King Bahamut’s blade managed to cut and rip my neck, even if she died with it, then she felt accomplished.

"A LITTLE MORE...! A LITTLE MORE UNTIL I SLICE YOUR NECK AND BATHE IN YOUR BLOOD, ATREUS VERMILLION...! I WILL PROUDLY BEHIND YOUR HEAD AND SHOW MY FATHER THAT I AM HIS PROUD DAUGHTER...!"

Sheiza’s loud, brutal-like cry sounded to me like a scream of grief and anger she’d long suppressed.

She resembled Azalea Aurelius, who had fallen victim to Archer Aurelius’s cruelty; forcing them both to become pawns guarding the sealing of King Bahamut without regard for their well-being.

"DIE...! DIE...! DIE...!"

"Enough, Sheiza," I said calmly amidst Sheiza’s increasingly intense, bloodthirsty cries.

"...you’ve crossed the line, and there’s no point in denying it with your brutality and wildness. You lost the moment you thought you could win with brutality alone. Your angry cry wasn’t born of hatred for me, but of the long-held sense of injustice you’ve harbored toward your own father," I continued, making Sheiza flinch in shock.

Of course, she was shocked because what I said was true and pierced her heart.

"Y-YOU WILL LOSE, ATREUS VERMILLION...! WHATEVER YOU SAY IS USELESS BECAUSE YOU’RE LO-"

"I win, Sheiza."

CLICK!

BOOOMM!

BOOOM!!

BOOOMM!

I snapped my fingers, activating the black fire magic hidden among the wind cutters and black lightning that had spread across each side of Seizha’s Venture armor and King Bahamut’s black spear.

The wind cutters and black lightning were merely forms of penetration magic to create significant cracks in Seizha’s Venture armor and King Bahamut’s black spear.

But what really decided it was the explosion of black flames on that cracks, fueled by the lightning bolts of black flames and the blasts of wind from the wind cutters.

The successive explosions at each crack in Seizha’s Venture armor and King Bahamut’s black spear sounded like a beautiful melody to my ears.

And watching Sheizha fly away with her armor and spear shattered into pieces was like I had just finished a beautiful song.

"AHHHKK....!"

Sehiza fell and landed hard, without any armor or weapons left, wearing only simple noble clothing.

I saw her demonic red eyes slowly fade, returning to their normal, human-like appearance.

Even the large black horns on her head cracked and shattered as the curse of King Bahamut within her lost its power.

Just as you said, Sheiza, only strength can resolve the conflict between your heart’s desires and your false devotion.

And I succeeded in proving that by destroying the very source of your insanity: the Curse of King Bahamut.

I saw that at her crotch, the sealed underwear still remained.

The flow of the Curse of King Bahamut’s magical power was still flowing.

They were gathered there, though not as strong as before, but it was only a matter of time before the curse of King Bahamut resurfaced and took control of Sheiza’s soul and body, just like the one I had just fought.

"Baron Atreus..."

I looked back and saw Leysha, supporting Azalea, walking towards me.

They both looked disheveled, but they didn’t have any serious or critical injuries, so I could be sure they were both safe.

What surprised me was that Leysha didn’t look battered.

She had saved me from King Bahamut’s energy beam, which nearly pierced my chest, and she had shielded me with her body.

At first, I was worried that Leysha would be as badly injured as Azalea, but her condition wasn’t as severe as I had imagined.

I saw that her body, even her soul, could regenerate and heal so quickly and effectively that she could cover such wounds, as if she were born to withstand the terrifying attacks of dragons.

For a moment, Zeraxion’s warning to me about the threat of King Victor Dragomir in Leysha’s form came back to me.

But it seemed too far-fetched for me to think and believe Zeraxion’s words.

"Baron Atreus... thank you... you truly arrived at the right time. Many of the palace’s troops were killed because Sheiza went on a rampage with such full force. I’ve never seen my daughter go on a rampage with such immense power and murderous intent. If you had been a few minutes later, this golden palace would have been a pile of corpses. And... I’m sorry if I failed to inform Alex of the chaotic situation here. It seems Sheiza intended to eliminate everyone in this golden palace without the troops outside knowing," Azalea thanked me, though her face looked exhausted.

"There’s no need to apologize. Is anyone still alive?" I asked.

"...I had asked the maids and butlers to hide in the secret room. I didn’t ask them to come out because Sheiza was already targeting anyone who tried to leave the palace."

"Good. Their orders are to inform Alex about this chaos. Also, tell him that Leysha and I have returned to Aaren’s golden palace so they can clean up the mess immediately. I’m worried Duke Archer will arrive and see this unusual situation."

"Y-yes, understood, Baron Atreus... but, what about my daughter? I-I heard you came to that other world to find a healing talisman for my daughter?"

"Yes, the healing talisman is already here. Leysha will be the one to unseal it. Right, Leysha?" I said, looking at Leysha.

"Yes, Baron Atreus. I can do it with this Angel’s Tear Pendant. But it seems I still need your help..."

"...my help?"

Leysha suddenly fell silent, her face flushed with embarrassment.

She glanced at Azalea beside her.

"...and I also need Azalea Aurelius’s help, because the unseal process requires a rather complicated ritual."

"Oh... of course, I’m willing to help free my daughter, Leysha. I’m glad to hear there’s hope for a cure, because I see my daughter as a doll who’s lost her soul due to being too loyal to her cruel father..." Azalea said happily.

Leysha closed her eyes briefly, then swallowed hard.

It seemed like there were words she couldn’t express.

"Why, Leysha? What kind of help do you need for this healing ritual? Don’t be shy, dear. We’re certainly willing to help," I said reassuringly.

"...this ritual will take quite a bit of time and energy, but I’m sure Baron Atreus can do it, since you’re the main role in this ritual, Baron," Leysha said after calming down.

"Ah...is it a difficult ritual? It’s okay, I’m ready, and my stamina is certainly stronger, Leysha. What kind of ritual is it?"

"Mmm...a threesome, Baron."

"Three...what?"
