Chapter 343: 343

I left Lillywood-san’s residence and returned to Lilia-san’s mansion .

According to the servants, Lilia-san and the others are in the training grounds, so I decided to head that way .

Aoi-chan and Hina-chan often use the training grounds from mid-morning to around noon, but there’s actually a reason for that .

It’s because the people in charge of the mansion’s security often use it in the afternoon, and there’s a chance that they will be in the way if they train around their time .

Incidentally, we are free to visit that place, and I’ve had the opportunity to visit a few times as well .

It seems like the people training now aren’t only Lilia-san and Lunamaria-san, but also Anima, Eta and Theta as well .

When I arrived at the large training area behind the mansion after a short walk, I heard the sound of what seems to be the clashing of swords .

As I looked around, I saw that while the guards were watching from a distance, a tremendous battle was taking place, which honestly looks too frightening to be called as a training exercise .

The sight of Sieg-san, using her two swords to handle the attack of Lunamaria-san, who was holding a short spear in one hand and a slender sword in the other, is also amazing, but the battle on the other side looks even more eye-catching .

Lilia-san catches Anima’s arm, brandished with her claws elongated and possesses overwhelming physical strength, with her greatsword disproportionate to her slender body…… I guess you could call it a power battle, as tremendous sounds resound with each of their blows .

In the training I’ve seen so far, Anima has just been training Eta and Theta, and this is the first time I’ve seen her fight against Lilia .

Anima once fought Theta and won, but that actually isn’t a reference to Anima’s strength at all .

After all, Anima ran over the mountains without sleep or rest after finishing her work with joining the guard force at Rigforeshia . She may not have shown it in her face, but she was terribly tired .

In fact, in a mock battle after Theta came to serve me, Anima won against her with just one punch .

Anima’s fighting strength is comparable to that of a Viscount-level, high-ranking Demon so…… of all the people in Lilia-san’s mansion, I think Anima is the strongest .

However, even if she isn’t fighting her seriously, I would say that Lilia-san is very strong because she’s able to fight head-to-head with Anima .

As I was thinking about this while observing their battle, Sieg-san and Lunamaria-san seemed to have finished with their fight and approached me .

[……Lilia-san’s battle with Anima is amazing, isn’t it?]

[Yes, as one would expect from Anima-sama . To be able to fight with My Lady head on……]

Lunamaria-san reacts to my words and responds with words of praise for Anima .

Hearing her praise Anima makes me feel happy as if I’m the one being complimented, and I can’t help but have a smile appear at the corners of my lips .

[Speaking of which, I’ve been wanting to ask you for a while…… Putting aside Lunamaria-san, is Sieg-san not as strong as Lilia-san?]

[Miyama-sama, Miyama-sama? Why do I feel spite in that statement……]

[Luna’s strength is that of an all-rounder . It can’t be helped if her combat ability is a step behind from us…… And to answer your question, I wasn’t able to match Lili anymore after she became “16 years old” . ]

[Eh? Really!?]

I thought that Lilia-san, Lunamaria-san, and Sieg-san’s fighting strength were all somewhat equal, but it seems that Lilia-san had a slight edge in overall strength .

In fact, Lilia-san said something like that during the Sacred Tree Festival…… The way Sieg-san is saying it now, Lilia-san is prominently stronger than them .

Looking at the surprised me, Lunamaria-san explained to me with a gentle smile .

[……Previously, when Miyama-sama didn’t know that the Demon you met was the Underworld King…… . When I thought that the one you met was a peerage-holding, high-ranking Demon, this is what she said . “I wish that I won’t have to fight a Demon of that class if it’s possible”……]

[Y- Yes, I also heard that she was relieved that she didn’t have to fight . ]

[……However, My Lady never said anything about “not being able to win when she fights”, didn’t she?]

[……Ahh . ]

Indeed, if you ask me, before she found out about Kuro’s true identity, Lilia-san said that she was glad that she didn’t end up having to fight a high-ranking Demon, but she never said anything about being unable to win .

[……Lili, how should I say this…… I don’t want to sound like I’m being strangely pretentious, but it’s like she doesn’t want to appear too uncivilized . That’s why she has never seriously fought anyone . ]

I nodded in agreement with Sieg-san’s words . It’s true that Lilia-san is concerned about being ladylike . Or rather, she doesn’t like to be frightened by others, so she tries to hide her strengths…… Well, she can’t hide how strong she is most of the time though .

[My Lady is a natural prodigy at fighting…… and she’s strong enough to be called as the “strongest human” . ]

[……The only Human who can fight head-on with Lilia would be her Majesty Laguna, the “strongest being in the Human Realm” . ]

(T/N: human refers to humans itself, while Human refers to the species . Elves like Sieg and mermaids like Laguna are also under Human . )

As I recall, her Majesty, the King of Hydra Kingdom was once a member of the First Hero’s part, right?

To be compared with such an amazing person…… No, for a person in her twenties to be able to match the strongest being in the Human Realm, someone who has already lived for over a thousand years, that shows how extraordinary her talent is .

[……Incidentally, which one of them is stronger, Anima or Lilia-san?]

[If they were to fight seriously, it will definitely be Lili . ]

[She’s that strong……]

Apparently, Lilia-san is stronger than I thought she would be .

Sieg-san and Lunamaria-san are also supposed to be among the strongest fighters in the country, but for them to say that they are still no match for Lilia-san…… Hmmm . That’s amazing .

I wonder if I’ll ever have the chance to see Lilia-san fight seriously someday? With that thought in mind, I turned my gaze back to the still ongoing battle between Lilia-san and Anima .

Updated from /lightnovelworld[ . ]com

Dear Mom, Dad———– I knew that Lilia-san was strongest, but I never expected that she was stronger than Anima . However, when I heard about it…… frightening it may be——– I thought I’d like to see Lilia-san fighting seriously at least once .

This is a very easy-to-understand flag for the young lady’s entrance in the Demon Lord arc . I guess this may be good news for the young lady’s fans?

I’m struggling a bit with the 1 Million Page Views Commemoration Chapter, so please wait a little longer .
