Type-Moon Simulation: Starting with Conquering a Greek Goddess!-Chapter 609: No Retreat

Alcides didn’t take too big of a step.

He wouldn’t get too close to Noel.

He continued to snipe and kill with Shooting the Hundred Heads.

Alcides knew that Noel’s power was not strong, and as long as he was cautious, it would not be difficult to kill her.

After losing a life, he remained cautious throughout the entire process.

The battlefield inevitably fell into chaos.

The reason why Alcides didn’t break through the encirclement of the police force was because he was considering other factors.

The suddenly appearing Gilgamesh and Richard.

These two seemed to be engaged in a life-and-death struggle, but in reality, they were both uncertain factors.

No one knew when the other party would turn their spear towards him.

Moreover, Alcides couldn’t be sure that the magi who were building the barrier walls wouldn’t launch a surprise attack.

This was not a duel that adhered to etiquette.

It was an endless chaotic battle where one had to attack unprepared, catch the opponent off guard, and not even show a single flaw behind them.

Alcides, who understood this principle, could instantly slaughter the police force scattered around and attacking him, but he couldn’t reveal any flaws in this situation, and could only act cautiously.

Especially after learning a lesson from Noel.

This situation was only possible because the police force possessed a certain level of strength.

The things they had accumulated until now, and the determination to risk their lives, were not in vain.

Within the police force, Vera, the female reporter who followed Orlando as his confidante, saw through Alcides’s fear with her keen eyes.

So, she threw out a test tube and used magecraft to create smoke.

This was used to block Alcides’s line of sight.

This action greatly displeased Alcides.

Once the line of sight was blocked by the smoke, it would be impossible to predict the situation of the other parties.

The police force wanted to create a gap.

In order to find an opportunity to breathe and think about the next strategy.

Noel seized the opportunity to throw out a purple spear.

Attempting to continue to leave wounds on Alcides’s body.

"A waste of effort...!"

Alcides suddenly burst out with magical power.

The resulting waves blew away the smoke, and the purple spear that was flying towards him was also shaken away.

This scene painted despair on the faces of many policemen.

"... Hey, if you could just retreat like this, it would be much easier for me. Don’t you want to consider it?"

Noel didn’t want to get entangled with Alcides either. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Her personality didn’t like deathmatches.

Noel was used to seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster, and was also used to struggling for survival as a small character in the cracks.

Even if she had obtained the power of a strong person.

She didn’t have the heart of a strong person.

Moran, who knew Noel best, knew this, and also hoped that one day she could shed her inferiority complex and transform into a butterfly.

"Just as you have beliefs and people that you must protect, I also have things that I must plunder. There is no need for us to understand each other.

If there is someone who can compromise my intentions, that kind of vicious person will only be an enemy on my path."

Alcides’s words were very clear.

They were completely the mad ravings of an Avenger.

——Those who oppose me will be crushed.

——Those who reconcile with me will be annihilated.

"What I am about to do is to slaughter young children who have not yet understood the ways of the world. If I can accomplish this, you will have nothing to do with me.

Are there any among you who cherish their own lives and are willing to stand by and watch a child die?"

Alcides questioned everyone while holding his longbow.

Just this alone brought overwhelming pressure to everyone.

Everyone knew that his next draw of the bow.

Would likely cause the death of a life, or even a tragic end where they couldn’t even have a complete corpse.

The policemen were all trembling with fear.

This time, it was the same situation as the police station incident, the opponent was completely on a different dimension from them.

But, they also knew.

Once they really gave way here, everything they believed in would disappear like ashes.

That justice, that belief, that dignity.

Would all be crushed into pieces.

Although it was right to run away to save one’s life, there were always some things in life that were more important than life.

People can’t just live for the sake of living.

That was nothing more than a walking corpse.

Therefore—

Even without hope, no police officer chose to flee, and no one even looked away from Alcides.

They had no way to retreat.

However, Noel reacted—

"To be honest, I don’t care about that child’s life. Nor do I have any grand ambitions or noble aspirations.

After all, children are being abused like this all the time in the world. It wouldn’t be strange if they fell in a pool of blood or were drained as sacrifices by vampires.

However, seeing an arrogant guy like you really pisses me off... just like those vampires who ravaged my hometown."

Noel is a survivor in every sense of the word.

At the age of twelve, she experienced the French Incident.

More than five Ancestors gathered in her town, unleashing a frenzy that could be described as a blood feast.

If Moran hadn’t made arrangements for her from the start,

her fate would have been a hundred times worse than that of Tsubaki Kuruoka.

She had seen some Ancestors do it for fun.

They slowly peeled a person’s intestines and skin out of their body, a process that took three days and three nights.

The misery, the wailing, the horror.

Noel will never forget it.

The reason was simply because it was fun; those Ancestors regarded human fear as a dessert after dinner.

Now seeing Alcides about to abuse and kill a child,

the world seems so cruel and dark to her that even the noble great hero has fallen into a revenger.

Noel just laughed it off.

—Anyway, the children of the world are suffering this kind of cruelty, so what does it matter if there’s a little more now?

Noel no longer cares about these things.

No one said that suffering the same pain necessarily means empathizing. Noel, who has seen that kind of hell, is only left with indifference.

She will only focus her attention on one person.

That is Moran, who saved her.

This man is the center of her world.

For Noel, Moran’s weight is equivalent to the weight of the world.

So, after inheriting Moran’s blood and making him truly the core of her world,

Noel felt only joy and emotion.

Now, encountering a cold-blooded enemy like Alcides, who openly says he wants to massacre young children,

the first thing she thinks about is not empathizing with Tsubaki Kuruoka,

but not wanting to disappoint Moran.
