In This Life, I Will Raise You Well, Your Majesty! - Chapter 76
Aran had always been paying attention to Shamir’s movements, therefore, he knew that the insignificant common warrior in front of him had nothing to do with Shamir.
If he had known there were pests that would corrode him and his tribe in the first place, he would have cleaned it up with Shamir. He wouldn’t have left it behind.
Aran looked around and blinked his eyes when he found something that could be used as a substitute for bait.
Then he directly climbed on the back of the horse, not the coach seat, that was still connected to a carriage, grabbed its mane hard with power enough to rip it off to make the horse turn, and slammed the weapon in his hand to the horse’s hind.
Surprised by the burning pain, the speed of the horse increased even more. It recklessly hit whatever was in front of it without knowing what it was.
Aran, who descended heavily to the floor, approached slowly after watching the two carriages collide.
The warriors who were thickly blocking the front exit in front also dispersed and surrounded the half-destroyed carriage in a circle.
“This is the end, incarnation of Sionil. Are you going to accept that there are things you can’t do?”
Aran said to Elisha, who was in the carriage, ignoring the young warrior, who had become frothy and frozen in a few words.
She was hurt, but he didn’t care, because he didn’t think the damn woman would ever die like this.
“The last lesson wasn’t enough, it seems. I admit that. So, I will teach you more in detail and desperately from now on. After today’s wedding is over.”
Aran’s eyes twinkled. There was not an ounce of lust within those eyes though. They were only filled with only savage hatred to destroy their opponent.
Chaeng-grang!
When they heard the sound of the carriage’s windows breaking, the warriors flinched and raised their vigilance. Yes, so much bravery for warriors of the desert.
A woman with silver hair appeared through the broken window. She reached out her hand as she passed through a space where a normal, thin woman couldn’t have escaped from.
Then, after delaying for some time, another woman came out. It was a common desert woman. Although just being there made her no longer a ‘common’ woman.
“Ha!”
He didn’t understand how a stain could move around so quickly. Shamir was removed, but the 2nd Consort immediately found these people to be on her side.
It went beyond right and wrong, and it involved the foundation of the long-term survival of the desert tribe. It was not light enough for an outsider to step up and destroy easily!
“Bring her. The other two… you’re free to kill them!”
Being free to kill meant doing whatever they wanted.
It would be a tragic end for the two who ruined Aran’s face, who became the grand chieftain in the presence of other tribes and caused great damage to the entire native tribe. They would be an example of not making rash choices.
The warriors narrowed the siege around the carriage. Meanwhile, the riots in the basin also entered a quiet state, and the other vice-leaders and warriors who were watching the situation at the exit approached.
Elisha handed Dahil, whom she was supporting with one hand, to Taro, and raised the crescent-shaped sword she was holding with the other hand.
Elisha thought.
Is it now?
No. Not yet.
Didn’t she still have a weapon in her hand? Furthermore, there was still the green jewel around her neck that could be used as a last resort.
Elisha looked up at the sky. The scorching sun illuminated her silver hair. Like a dazzling moonlight flickering in a crumbling ruin.
Elisha lowered her gaze and looked at the warriors who came within 10 meters of her. It was clear which way to go.
“Taro, I will clear the road, so take Dahil and follow me. If you lose me, I won’t look back, so be prepared to die.”
When Elisha spoke without looking back, Taro, who had been hugging Dahil, quickly wiped away his tears and answered.
“Yes!”
As soon as he approached, Elisha kicked the floor and shot out.
“Huh?”
The surrounding net, which had formed a circle, was squashed into an elongated shape in an instant.
Chaeng! Chaeng!
Elisha held the crescent sword at an angle and cut off those who rushed toward her.
Shwaa!
She got help from Undine. As she squeezed out the mana that was running out, the vitality of her body that was the source trembled.
It’s dangerous as it is.
Elisha bit her lower lip, and a scream came from behind.
“Kyaaakh!”
It was Dahil. Even Elisha could barely hold out, so it was natural that it was too much for one warrior and an ordinary woman who were not outstanding.
But Elisha had obviously notified them of what she could and couldn’t do, and they were the ones who made the choice, so she didn’t have to care anymore.
She didn’t… She wasn’t going to turn around… But unknowingly, she still turned around and reached out to Dahil who was being targeted by weapons.
Kakakang!
Weapons were blocked by water and bounced off.
Elisha almost spat blood.
In the meantime, the warriors came closer and rushed towards the gap.
“I’m doing such a stupid thing.”
Not for Leon or Ascensio.
It wasn’t like she had no choice but to take risks. They weren’t even important people who would be of great help to her in the future. If it had been in the past, it would have been so natural that she would have gone her own way without having to worry about it.
Elisha saved Dahil and Taro and ran again.
It was only one step late, but it was enough time for the scattered warriors to close the gap and unite.
She could feel the pounding heartbeat.
Was it okay to delay and be interrupted like this in order to save those who have low prospects on the way to Leon?
Destroy them all, kill them all, approach the child at the shortest distance and the fastest, and run to him!
Show him my bloody self again? Like in the past, when I ran for him while abandoning everything?
Her head was pounding.
The pendant fluttered according to Elisha’s movement. Cool metal cooled the heat. Yes, Rohan said he would protect me.

The empire praised the 2nd Consort, so there was no reason for the emperor to antagonize the 2nd Consort’ child now.
The child is safe.
Elisha covered the pendant with her palm. She wished she could save those two and take them out. She didn’t want to let them die when she couldn’t return anything after receiving their help.
They were not knights who swore allegiance to her, nor were they the people of the empire who grieved for her.
All the two people who were unrelated to her wanted was to get out of here and live together without the pursuit of the desert tribes.
“Murgun.”
Was it Tarisha? Or was it Torisha? Anyway, the rumors that the baroness heard may be true.
Elisha looked back at the warriors who were pursuing them endlessly and clicked her tongue. Then she opened the lid of the pendant with her fingertips and touched the green jewel.
She hoped that one step would be two steps, two steps would be three steps, and as she tried to feel the aura of the jewel, the airflow suddenly changed.
The ranks had turned into a semicircle with the exit blocked, and Elisha stared over the shoulders of the warriors trying to attack them.
A considerable number of signs were felt outside the exit. The echo on the ground also grew stronger. Elisha was not the only one who noticed the strange feeling.
“Look behind! It’s an assault!”
As soon as Aran’s cry was over, the people that appeared from the exit started to wield their weapons and cut down the warriors of the Aran tribe who had their backs on the exit.
“What is this?”
“The enemy! It’s the enemy!”
As the warriors of the Aran tribe shouted, other native warriors who were approaching tried to help them stop the invaders from entering. However, the intruders were on horseback, making it difficult for them to deal with. Those who were inside beginning to be pushed.
As the fight intensified, Elisha, Dahil, and Taro saw the people’s attention shift away from them. Elisha’s instinct became sensitive. She whispered that this was a golden opportunity to escape Aran’s grasp.
But also, she warned. That it would be the beginning of a new danger. Elisha didn’t know how their situation would change depending on the identity of those who attacked.
But either way, it worked.
Elisha took Dahil and Taro, who were absent-minded, and moved away from the exit of the basin. A new enemy had appeared and the battle had begun, so the depths of the basin opposite the exit were empty. Now, it seemed that they could escape to the outside over the rocky slope that surrounded the basin.
“If you can’t even do that, there’s nothing I can do for you.”
Elisha said, swerving from the direction the native tribe warriors were running, leading Dahil and Taro to the corner.
Dahil and Taro nodded their heads.
After confirming, Elisha gently pushed the two of them and tried to follow them while checking their surroundings, but a shadow quickly approached behind their back.
Elisha twisted her upper body and lifted her sword, but it was difficult to overcome the power of the opponent who had slammed their weapon down after jumping into the air in addition to their running force.
Kaaang!!
Elisha’s body staggered, her back was bent back. Elisha’s crescent-shaped sword, which was blocking the opponent’s weapon, was pushed and pushed, until the back of her sword came close to her face.
“Where are you going, running away like a rat?”
When Aran spoke, straightening his neck toward her, Elisha answered.
“What should I do if the rat nest doesn’t suit me? Why didn’t you make it a bit more suitable for a human being? Ah, right, you’re not a human. I was being rude.”
She spoke the words in an indifferent tone, but it was Aran’s first time having his head almost blown off because of someone’s words.
Aran, whose eyes were trembling, slightly pushed back the blade that was crossing with Elisha’s crescent-shaped sword. It didn’t seem like he’d give up anytime soon.
After being pushed to the limit, when there was a gap, Elisha’s hand sprang up arbitrarily. Aran slammed his crescent-shaped sword toward Elisha with the same motion as before. This time, Elisha couldn’t react immediately.
“Goddess!”
Whiing!
If the two people, who were a little far away, had not run back, grabbed Elisha’s arm and pulled her towards them, Elisha would have suffered serious injuries. Perhaps she’d be dead.
Chaeng-grang!
The crescent sword fell from Elisha’s hand, which was losing strength, and dropped to the ground.
“Your gut is too big.”
Aran said in an unpleasant tone.
Taro and Dahil, who sat down on either side of Elisha, were like little animals.
Elisha, who was much smaller than the two, leaned forward as if protecting them. Aran reached out his hand to Elisha.
At that time, Elisha was looking down at the crescent sword that was between her and Aran.
She thought she could throw herself forward, grab that sword, stab him, and take at least two steps backward before his hand got closer. Wouldn’t it be possible to escape in the meantime?
As Elisha was about to put it into action, someone gently pressed her shoulder.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice.
“Our consort really doesn’t give up.”
“How can I give up?”
If I give up it will be all over. That will be the worst of the worst.
She had a genuinely confused expression. And looking down at her, Shamir’s golden eyes bent slightly.
“That’s right. Our consort is such a person.”
Then, he made eye contact with Aran, who was staring at him as if to kill him.
“Should you be staying here? Can’t you see all the native tribes falling over there?”
“Did you bring our enemies over? As if betrayal is not enough, are you going to kill your own tribesmen?”
Shamir shook his head.
“They’re your karma, not mine. You really don’t know? They’re the ones you’ve offended the most recently, and a huge offense at that.”
Aran’s movements stopped right away. He turned his face towards the enemy he had crushed. Before Aran could open his mouth, he heard a cry from the other side.
“Aran! Here I am!”
“Laoman…!
Shamir’s white teeth were exposed when Aran groaned.
