Villainess Becomes The Knight

In the whole empire, Josephine was the best. Her sword moves like air, fast and smooth. If it would have been my past i would have been able to win with her. But now chances are low and she knew that. That was why she was enjoying her time here.

Like a cat playing with a mouse, she was playing with me. My heart was doing somersaults in my ribcage, the anticipation was too much.

"Young girl, are you not going to attack?" she asked with a smirk, knowing well my thought process.

I took a deep breath as I attacked again, but her sword was already ready to defend. She turned to parry, but I pushed hard and we both went two steps back. This time she moved.

As she brought her sword towards me, I used plenty of force to block her attack and launched my own attack in one swift move. I held my sword in such a way that I could effectively block her attack while hitting her with my sword at the same time.

She stepped away from my sword and attacked my arm with her sword when I tried to move towards her shin.

"So you are going to use underhanded methods again?" she asked me with ridicule

"You are not giving me any choice. Are you? \'\' I sighed as I took a flip in the air and bent to the other side. There was the sword of Sylvia which she had left after being disarmed. I took it in my hands as I stood up.

"Seriously, you are not able to use one properly and now you are planning to fight with two swords\' \' she asked me with amusement, she was sure i would not be able to use my left hand but she was wrong. I was left handed in my past life and right handed in this life so I was able to use both hands just fine. I had tried it on the training, and if things went well I would be able to do that now too.

I attacked again this time with a right hand which she blocked and I used a left handed sword to attack her neck with full speed. Her eyes widened as she bent to save herself but it removed the force she was using to defend herself and I used the chance to attack on her chest too.

"See, two swords are not that bad." I said with a smile as she was having trouble defending from both sides.

I once again used both swords from opposite sides targeting her both hands and she had to kneel to save them. She did a black flip but it would not stop me for long.

I moved towards her again and this time she made a round in the ground by extending her one leg to trip me but I took two steps back.

She stood up and extended her leg in the air to hit my private parts but I blocked it with a sword that hit her leg.

She winced as she took her leg back and moved towards the right.

I moved towards the right too as I once again attacked her gut and neck at the same time. The strategy was to keep attacking opposite points of her body so that she would not be able to defend.

This time I was successful in injuring her shoulder as she tried to run again, this is not going to work, even though she had realized that.

"Accept defeat, Josephine. It would be easy then. You can not always run away." I said as I took my stance again.

She gritted her teeth, it was the second time I was beating her and I was sure she would not let the matter go as I moved to attack again.

This time she was the first to attack. She moved her sword in 8 directions in the air and then tried to attack my chest. I used my left hand sword to defend while my right hand sword to attack her hands. But she used her leg to kick my body at the same time.

Managing two swords was already taking all my energy so I was not able to maintain my balance under the pressure and I staggered. She turned and attacked my chest again at the same movement and it hit me straight below the neck and blood seeped out.

I dug both sword in the ground to maintain my balance and took a deep breath. When I opened my eyes her sword was just inches away from me so I bent and tried to hold her waist. I held her waist and used all my force to hit her on the ground which I did with a thud.

Her sword was in the air trying to hit me but I back flipped and took my sword out from the ground.

She stood up in the meanwhile and tried to attack me again when I threw one sword like a dagger and it hit her straight below the heart. I heard an uproar and soon the emperor stood up.

"The match ends right here" he shouted and i was not even surprised, it was his one and only beloved daughter that was jabbed below her heart.

"No, i want to end the battle properly" she said in a low voice as the blood started flowing like a stem and i shook my head.

"The battle has ended, your highness, and I am the one who won AGAIN \'\' I said and she looked at me with bloodlust as if she would kill me right then and there.

"The winner of this round is Abigail Essendson. The overall winner of the competition is Josephine Christetia, the first runner up is Abigail Essendson, and the second runner up is Sylvia." was announced and I closed my eyes. No matter what I did , I still did not win.

"You did a good job, now you are officially my knight" said William as he walked towards me.

"I apologise but the second winner of the knight competition belongs to me." i heard the voice i can not even forget in my nightmares
