Overlord (book 1)

These words entered Enri’s mind.

——If you’re alone, you may be able to escape.

——Do you want to die here?

——Splitting up wouldn’t necessarily be safer.

“Shut up, shut up, shut up!”

Screaming loudly, Enri angrily reproached herself.

She was the worst sister.

Her younger sister looked like she was about to cry, but why wasn’t she already crying?

It was because she believed in her older sister. She believed that her older sister would save

her.

Holding her younger sister’s hand——the hand that gave her courage, Enri strengthened her

resolve.

She could never abandon her sister.

“Ah!”

Enri wasn’t the only one exhausted, her younger sister had also used up a lot of energy running

away. Because of that, her steps suddenly stumbled, causing her to scream and almost fall

down.

The reason why the two did not fall down was because they were holding each others hands. It

was only because of her younger sister pul ing her up, that Enri didn’t lose her balance.

“Quickly!”

“Huff, huff!”

Although they wanted to continue running, her sister’s leg cramped up and stopped moving.

Enri thought of carrying her sister, but metallic sounds stopped right next to her, scaring Enri to

no end.

Standing beside her was a knight with a bloody sword. Not only that, the armor and helmet also

had traces of blood splatter.

Enri stood in front of her sister and glared fiercely at the knight.

“Don’t struggle unnecessarily.”

These words were said without the slightest hesitation, words full of ridicule. Words saying that

even if they ran, they would not escape death.

Enri’s heart suddenly burst out with emotion, wondering what he was talking about.

The knight slowly raised his sword above the unmoving Enri. The moment that the sword was

about to come down onto Enri——

“Don’t look down on people!”

“Guuu!”

Enri mercilessly struck his helmet. That strike held all of her anger and also all of her desire to

protect her sister, she was not afraid of striking the metal with her fists. It was a strike that used up all her energy.

TL Note: VILLAGE GIRL SHORYUKEN!

Hearing the sound of bones breaking, pain suddenly spread throughout Enri’s whole body. The

knight who endured such a blow, started to sway violently.

“Run!”

“Eh!”

Enri endured the pain and started to run——then suddenly she felt a burning sensation on her

back.

“——Wuuu!”

“You damn bitch!”

After being hit in the head by a simple village girl, the knight flew into a rage.

He had lost his calm and was wildly swinging his sword around. As a result he was unable to cut

Enri down, but next time she wouldn’t be so lucky. Because Enri was injured and the knight was

raging, the next strike would definitely be fatal.

Enri looked at the sword raised high in front of her, shining in the light, and understood two

things.

First, they would both be killed in a few seconds. Second, as an ordinary village girl, there was

no way to resist.

The sword’s tip was covered in a bit of her blood. That sight made her feel her own heartbeat,

the pain from her back spreading through her body and the burning sensation of when she was

cut.

Having never experienced this sort of pain before caused her to feel fear and she felt like

vomiting.

Perhaps vomiting could dissipate the feeling of fear.

But Enri was looking for ways to survive, there was no time to waste throwing up.

Although in her heart she wanted to despair, Enri had a reason for not giving up. That was the

feeling of warmth next to her chest——her younger sister.

At least my sister must live.

This one thought made Enri choose not to give up.

However, right in front of her stood a knight, mocking her determination.

Lifting his sword high, getting ready to swing the sword down.

It could have been her concentrating too much, or that the life or death situation made her mind

go into overdrive, Enri felt time slow down as she thought of ways to save her sister.

But she couldn’t think of a good solution. The most she could think of was to use her own body

as a shield, and while the sword pierced her body, her sister could use that time to run away,

that would be the last resort.

As long as she had strength left, no matter who pierced her, she wouldn’t let go until the fire of

her life burned out.

If that happened, then she would accept that fate.

Enri felt like a martyr and showed a smile.

This was the only thing that she could do for her sister. This thought made Enri smile.

She was unsure if her sister alone would be able to escape this hell.

Even if she fled into the forest, she could encounter patrolling soldiers. But as long as she could

survive this, there was a chance that she would be able to escape. Just for the chance for her

sister to live, Enri bet her life——no she bet her everything she had.

Even so, being scared of the incoming pain, she could not help but close her eyes. In the world

of darkness, she mentally prepared herself for her imminent death───
