The headless knight raised his finger, pointing to Darkness's location, and a black mist rushed towards Darkness.
Kazuma Sato was startled and shouted at Darkness, "Hey, you pervert, get out of the way! That one doesn't look like a good person at all!"
However, Darkness had no intention of dodging. She let the black shadow envelop her, and with a cry of "Ah!", she fell to the ground.
The sight made the four members of the team twitch at the corners of their mouths.
Roya finally couldn't hold back any longer and stepped forward to grab Darkness.
He then pinched Darkness's cheeks a few times in a vicious manner.
A red mark instantly appeared on Darkness's cheek. Darkness winced in pain and complained, "Roya, what are you doing? I'm injured! How could you treat me like this?"
Luo Ya sneered, initially not taking the girl's words seriously, but suddenly he realized something. His dark eyes stared directly at the girl, and the young man said coldly, "You know me? No, you recognize me?"
Those dark eyes stared directly at the girl lying on the ground, her clothes disheveled, a glimpse of her cleavage visible.
But that's not the point. When did Darkness recognize him?
Darkness instinctively covered her mouth, inwardly cursing herself for being too excited and accidentally blurting out the other person's real name.
Kazuma Sato looked at Roya strangely, then at Darkness lying on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Roya? Isn't he Pamela? His real name is Roya?"
Roya glanced at Darkness, but the boy didn't say anything, only simply saying, "I'll settle the score with you when we get back."
At this moment, the headless horseman shouted to the crowd, "The spell I just cast was Death Sentence. She, that knight, will die in a week. Unless you can defeat me, or receive purification from a high priest who is almost at the level of a goddess, she is doomed. How about it? Watching your companion die before your eyes, quickly repent in agony and beg for my forgiveness. Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll break her curse?"
At this point, the Headless Horseman couldn't help but chuckle a few times to emphasize his villainous nature.
However, upon hearing this, Darkness's eyes widened in anger, and she exclaimed, "Is that so! In other words, you've cast a death curse on me, and to break the curse I have to obey you! That's what you mean, isn't it!"
"?" The headless knight, unable to understand what Darkness was talking about, gave the most direct and frank reaction.
The headless knight was rendered speechless, his warhorse neighing, and no one spoke for a moment.
The air seemed to freeze.
Chapter 317 Damn it, you blond brat!
Darkness ignored the silent crowd and continued, "Hmm! It's just a mere curse, don't even think about making me submit! I won't submit! But, what should I do, Roya! Look at that headless knight, look at those lewd eyes under his helmet! Those eyes look like he wants to take me straight back to the castle, saying that if I want to lift the curse, I have to obey him, and then he wants me to play some perverted and lewd sex games with him!"
Being stared at by everyone with such grotesque gazes, even the headless knight felt incredibly disgusted.
Unwittingly branded as a pervert, the headless knight couldn't help but retort, "I didn't say anything! Don't make things up for yourself."
"Then why did you give me seven days? Wasn't it to force me to satisfy your dark and twisted desires? You must want to take me back to the castle and ravage me, right?"
"No, I just wanted your companions to live in pain because of your death."
"Alright, stop making excuses. Your dark thoughts are written all over your face. If you want this, then so be it. Come on, take me away. Let's go to your castle and do whatever you want. Roya, Aqua, Kazuma, Megumin, take care. I'll be right back."
Seeing that the gazes of the crowd were becoming increasingly strange, the headless knight opened his mouth, but could not say anything.
It seems that the situation is indeed as Darkness described.
The murmurs of the crowd drifted over: "That knight is really freakish."
"Yeah, I didn't expect it to be an erotic knight."
"I used to think he was an upright person, but I never expected him to be such a perverted cadre."
"But he's already just a skeleton, and he still has desires in that area."
"Who knows? Maybe he never touched a woman in his life, and that's why he looks like this after he dies."
As the headless knight heard the conversations, his face grew increasingly dark, and even his left hand, which was gripping the greatsword, began to tremble.
"Shut up! Since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish!"
The headless horseman practically roared at the surrounding adventurers.
The adventurers were startled by the headless horseman's loud voice, and the chaotic situation was brought under control in an instant.
The headless horseman's head stared intently at Darkness, as if he were looking at some kind of lunatic.
However, a figure had already blocked Darkness's way.
Roya slowly drew his knight's sword and approached the headless knight.
The headless knight coldly rebuked, "Boy, do you want to test the sharpness of my sword?"
The young man arrived at the headless knight, and the two were only a little over ten feet apart. This distance was something that both Roya and the headless knight could cross in an instant.
However, the two of them just stood there gazing at each other.
The headless knight had a gloomy face, and his warhorse reared up high, its front hooves pounding forward as it charged.
The greatsword slashed down instantly, its violent momentum tearing the air apart. The greatsword was powerful, heavy, and incredibly fast.
Even if they could react in time, they would be completely unable to withstand this slash.
An ordinary adventurer would probably be killed instantly in this encounter.
While the three team members were watching with bated breath, Darkness appeared remarkably calm.
The girl looked at her three teammates and comforted them, "Don't worry about him. He's Roya, he won't die so easily."
The greatsword slashed down, but was abruptly interrupted.
The slender knight's longsword transformed into a swift slash.
Swords clashed, producing a loud metallic clang.
A tremendous force came from the greatsword, and the slender longsword actually blocked it.
The headless horseman's eye sockets flickered with life again. The horseman dismounted, and the undead horse retreated behind him. Its two-meter-tall body was even taller than Roya.
Roya even had to look up to see the headless horseman's full height.
Unlike his previous indifference, the headless knight's voice was now slightly excited: "You're quite good. I didn't expect you to be able to withstand my slash. Let me see more of your strength!"
However, before the words were finished, another swift slash was launched.
The raging force converged at a single point, then suddenly erupted, the blinding flames turning the entire longsword red. Fiery red patterns swirled around the knight's sword, and Roya's figure instantly appeared before the headless knight.
Breath of the Sun: Phantom Rainbow.
The figure vanished like a bubble, and the berserk knight's sword transformed into a circular slash, directly striking the headless knight's upper body.
Roya was originally going to cut off the head, but since the headless knight was holding the head in his right hand, he had to change direction and attack.
In an instant, the longsword struck the headless knight's armor.
The longsword was embedded in the armor, and immense force was unleashed on it without restraint.
Despite being such a slender longsword, it managed to withstand the headless knight's armor and, through sheer brute force, became embedded within it.
This is absolutely outrageous.
Roya appeared so fast that even the Headless Horseman didn't have time to react.
However, at this distance, swinging the greatsword is quite troublesome.
The advantage of the greatsword lies in its ability to overwhelm with strength. The headless knight's attack method is also very simple, mainly involving sweeping slashes, using simple sword moves to counter the opponent's exquisite sword skills.
The Headless Horseman possesses immense strength, and with his greatsword, even adventurers at levels sixty or seventy would find it difficult to defeat him in a direct confrontation.
However, the Headless Horseman has now met his match.
"How could you possibly defeat me in a head-on confrontation? Just who are you?"
The headless knight swung his greatsword, attempting to force Roya back.
However, the next moment, a jet-black longsword reappeared in Roya's hand. The jet-black longsword also exuded an ominous aura, although this ominous aura was quite different from the ominous aura on the knight.
With the power of the gods erupting, the darkness of another world was injected into the magnificent knight's sword. An invisible energy wave burst forth, instantly blocking the headless knight's greatsword.
The headless knight was forced back several steps by the force. At this moment, the undead warhorse that had retreated to the back neighed and charged forward.
The horse was very fast, and in the blink of an eye it arrived in front of Roya. Just like it had done with Darkness, the horse raised its hooves high and trampled Roya.
Roya calmly watched the undead warhorse that appeared before him almost instantly. Roya's expression did not change at all, only the black knight's sword in his left hand emitted an even darker, ghostly light.
The young man's cold voice rang out the next moment: "O infinite darkness, slaughter our enemies—Declaration of Death Dark Thunder."
The darkness of the otherworld erupted instantly, using the black knight's longsword as a medium.
The raging energy was devastating, engulfing the undead warhorse almost instantly. The massive energy fluctuations swept across everything without restraint, and black lightning surged like a roaring flood.
The undead warhorse let out a mournful cry and then vanished from the world.
Only a deep ravine remains, leading straight to the end of the forest.
The surrounding adventurers gasped in shock, completely taken aback.
The ravines, stretching for thousands of meters, made everyone's scalp tingle.
Huihui shouted excitedly, "Wow, so handsome! How can he be so handsome? Captain, he's been hiding his true feelings so well! How can he be so handsome? And this line, 'Infinite darkness, slaughter our enemies!' Ahhh, I can't take it anymore."
Huihui continued to have a recurring episode, but no one paid any attention to her, as everyone was too shocked to speak.
Aqua was also stunned. For the first time, the goddess said with some admiration, "This magic power is probably comparable to mine, isn't it? It's hard to imagine that there are such humans in this world."
Aqua was referring to herself as a goddess, before she descended to earth. At that time, she was connected to the upper realm and possessed almost inexhaustible divine power.
However, Aqua saw her former self in Roa.
