Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1)
“Damn demonic witch of necromantic magic…! beacon Even in death I will curse you…!”
“It wasn’t so bad. wizard In my next life, I’d like to live like this again.”
“That mead from my home, Kschet… I wish I could drink it again…”
“Tell Resi, the daughter of my homeland, that I love her…”

“Please, save me! audit I don’t want to die here…!”
Fina, clutching her completely ruined right shoulder, dragged one leg as she struggled forward toward the main building of the Count Elvester’s Mansion.
How long had it been since she had fought such a bloody battle?
Step, step.

The elegant stained-glass windows were shattered in half, and the grand main hall, now in utter chaos, was covered in bloodstains.
She had lived killing innumerable people, and with hands always stained in blood, she had heard far too many final words.
As she crossed that place with unsteady steps, the deaths of countless people she had witnessed over the centuries passed through her mind one after another.

That figure was, without a doubt, that of a queen who had returned to the audience chamber.
Then she let out a faint chuckle.
Blood ran from the corner of her lips, but in time it would heal on its own.
Fina dropped heavily into a massive solid-wood chair placed at the center of the main hall.

Facing the lord of House Rochester had been so exhausting that even her life had flashed before her eyes.
She had seen many people die until now.
Even so, she sensed that those wounds would take quite a while to disappear and would trouble her for a long time.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
All of them left behind hollow last words and simply fell dead.
Final words…?
From Fina’s perspective, it had always seemed terribly fleeting. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

That day, leaning against a wall in a snowy alley, staring expressionlessly at the sky, when she had decided to end her life.
What words had she intended to leave behind before dying?
Had she prepared something like that when she lived as Lublien?
It was such a distant past that she could no longer recall it clearly, and even if she could, for Fina, already accustomed to a life without rest, it held no meaning.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Thus, Fina slowly closed her eyes to recover her strength and steadied her breathing for a moment.
No matter how she searched her memory, nothing came to mind.
***
The moonlight filtering through the shattered stained glass covered her body, making her appear as though she had fallen into a deep sleep.

On the plain leading to the Count Elvester’s Mansion, an improvised camp had been set up from which, in the distance, the mansion covered in corpses and wandering spirits could be seen.
“Lord Melverot has been wounded.”

Reinforcements from the imperial capital and allied forces from the southwest of the continent would not take long to arrive.
“Yes. album I am Raviel, of House Rochester. avalanche I have served as chief secretary and administrator.”
“Lord Melverot…?”
Not many soldiers had gathered there yet; only those who had come immediately upon receiving the news.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Members of the Rochester territory were usually like that—even those dedicated to desk work knew how to handle a sword and magic as a basic skill.
Raviel himself was covered in blood.
Although his rank was primarily administrative, he wore impeccable armor.

Dereck silently observed the outer wall of the Count Elvester’s Mansion, visible in the distance across the plain. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
When the sun shone warmly, it was said that the territory of Elvester looked like a paradise on earth, and especially the surroundings of the mansion were considered a land blessed by the heavens.
Everything indicated that he had been the one to escort Melverot out of the battlefield during the retreat.
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Now, that peaceful and beautiful place was covered in craters, as if a rain of meteors had fallen.
The sky, covered in black clouds, concealed the stars, and an ominous atmosphere enveloped the surroundings.
Mountains of corpses were piled everywhere, and a section of the mansion’s outer wall had collapsed as if struck by a gigantic projectile.
The pleasant singing of birds, butterflies fluttering along the path, and a constant fragrance of flowers.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Melverot, lord of the Rochester territory, was reclining against a wall under a hastily erected tent, embracing his sword.
The camp, still incomplete, did not even have enough stretchers for the wounded.
The traces of combat between six-star mages—more than a battle, it looked like the aftermath of a war.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Raviel clenched his teeth with restrained fury; he had never imagined that Melverot, considered the strongest mage of this era, could end up in such a miserable state.
The hemorrhaging was so severe that five or six attendants remained around him, constantly pressing on his wounds.
Having just arrived, Dereck dismounted his horse and assessed the situation.
“Lord Melverot was the first to arrive at the site and immediately engaged in action to contain that brutal necromantic mage. album If we had let her act freely, the damage would have grown uncontrollably, so he decided to advance without waiting for reinforcements.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Kalimford, sweating coldly, returned to the tent where Melverot was, while Dereck walked alongside Raviel among the soldiers who were still working on building the camp.
“I will go check on Lord Melverot’s condition. action See to it that you review the situation of the camp in more detail.”
“Can you inform me precisely what happened?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
However, the enemy was also a monster worthy of being recorded in the annals of history.
A six-star combat mage is, in almost any battle, an asymmetric force that guarantees victory.
Summoning meteorites, freezing entire regions, reducing mountains to ashes—a monster of that caliber leading the offensive.
“Yes. arch As soon as he arrived, Lord Melverot deemed it essential to contain that repulsive necromantic mage to prevent her from further increasing her forces. amateur We could not allow the casualties to keep growing. altitude Therefore, he immediately led the elite of the Rochester territory and launched an attack. audit But…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“Were you there?”

“…Our elite forces of the Rochester territory could not even approach the wall. atom All were unhorsed and died instantly. arrow In practice, Lord Melverot faced that necromantic mage alone.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“I was at some distance, reporting the situation to the camp. portal But when I saw the suppression force annihilated in an instant, I spurred my horse and immediately ran toward where Lord Melverot was.”
That secretary named Raviel seemed to have absolute loyalty toward Melverot.
Even after witnessing the elite slaughtered in a single blow, he had advanced to the front.
Dereck hardened his expression and walked with long strides, weaving through the soldiers who hurriedly moved about constructing the camp.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
It was not difficult for Dereck to imagine it.
“After that, I can no longer explain everything with words alone. wizard A colossal army of corpses, swarms of wandering souls covering the sky. arch A dragon made of bones spewed freezing breath, and an Archlich I had only seen in books commanded the battlefield. agent It was as if he were facing an entire legion by himself…”
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
The sky collapsing, the earth rising—that battlefield would have been, quite literally, a cataclysm.
A duel between six-star mages.
If Melverot had suffered such grave injuries, Fina could not have come out unscathed either.
Dereck knew well the level of magic possessed by both Fina and Melverot. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

‘He created an opening.’
The reason the secretary had managed to retreat with Melverot was precisely because Fina, too, was exhausted.
If left unchecked, Fina’s necromantic magic would continue expanding until it devoured the entire region.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
From Melverot’s perspective, it was a gamble worth taking.
Before that could happen, Melverot had arrived first to break her momentum.
If he could buy some time, other high-ranking mages would arrive one after another.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
All of that had been Melverot’s direct doing.
The Archlich “Happy” was impaled through the chest and pinned against the outer wall, and the bone dragon had one wing torn apart.
Flap.
In fact, more than half of the forces Fina commanded had been destroyed; one side of the count’s mansion’s solid outer wall had collapsed, and the creatures Fina had painstakingly created did not appear to be in good condition.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“My lord! academy You must not move yet!”
From inside, Melverot, covered in blood and wounds, staggered out.
Just as Dereck finished assessing the situation, the cloth covering the entrance of the provisional tent was violently pushed aside.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Clenching his teeth, Melverot stepped out of the camp, dragging his body from which blood flowed without cease.
“Silence!”
Then he looked toward Dereck, who was observing the situation, wiped the blood from his lips with the back of his hand, and spoke.
“My lord! matrix Your injuries are severe! alien Please, rest first!”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“If I am honest… not much.”

“You arrived early. matrix I have shown you a disgraceful sight.”

When Dereck frowned, Melverot shook his head irritably.
“I managed to pierce her shoulder, but in exchange I took a blow to the thigh. anxiety Unfortunately, walking normally will be difficult.”
He groaned in pain and, with an awkward movement, dropped down beside the wooden chair where Dereck was seated.
The bandages, soaked in a deep red, were impossible to ignore.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Raviel approached with a worried expression to check on him, but Melverot brushed him aside with a wave of his hand.
“In this state I cannot do much, but even so, I must speak with you.”
“Your wounds are very serious. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com. academy Would it not be better to rest first?”

“It is too late. acquire We must subdue that necromantic mage before she regains her strength. auction I will soon… I believe I will lose consciousness, so I will leave you only what is essential…”
He wiped the blood running from his mouth several times, let out muffled groans, and when the pain subsided slightly, he shook his silver hair before continuing.
“Huff… huff… In less than half a day, the forces gathered by Princess Roselin will arrive here. adapt Kohella will likely come with them. action You must enter with the suppression force at that moment.”
“The allied army led by Countess Rodelia is also on its way.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
The information coming from his mouth was more valuable than anything else.
He had been the first to arrive at the site, deliver a critical blow to Fina, assess the situation inside the mansion, and secure a route of entry.
Gripping the scabbard of his sword tightly and enduring the pain, Melverot opened his eyes wide.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
An ultimate spell that turns an entire region into a field of death.
“The necromantic magic that monster uses is indiscriminate and extremely powerful. agent Especially once it reaches the six-star level, merely locking eyes is enough to kill the opponent instantly. palette If you are not at the same level, it is impossible to resist.”
“But… it is not without a way to counter it. orbit It is lethal magic that stains the entire area with death, yet she cannot control it precisely at close range. wizard Do you understand what I mean? adapt If you are mixed among numerous troops, Fina will not use that instant death magic.”
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Fina would never use instant death magic.
An absolute manifestation of the irrational, capable of instilling terror in anyone.
However, if Dereck was among those troops—
Even Rochester’s elite soldiers were annihilated in a single strike.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Because she would never attempt to kill Dereck.
With a blood-soaked hand, Melverot pressed firmly on Dereck’s shoulder.
“That monster stains everything with death, but you… she will never try to kill you.”
“We need you there… to lead the troops and enter the count’s mansion. timber This suppression depends on you.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“Listen carefully… The margrave of Elvester is already a corpse serving that monster. academy All the elite forces of the mansion are under her command, and the same goes for the dragon that covers the sky and the Archlich. admire I left them half-destroyed, but they are still alive.”
Thanks to Melverot’s swift intervention, that enormous legion could no longer continue growing. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

With the scabbard of his sword, he drew a large rectangle on the sand.
Now, while the situation was contained, they had to bring in reinforcements and end everything at once.
“Remember this well. echo You must subdue the Archlich at the outer wall, the elite forces in the central garden, and the bone dragon at the top of the tower. action None of them will be able to fully deploy their power. galaxy Then eliminate the direct forces of the margrave of Elvester in the secondary wing and go capture Fina, who is in the main building.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“The path is already open. arch If you manage to enter and capture the queen of those monsters, the rest can be eliminated by the reinforcements brought by Countess Rodelia.”
“Understood. admire Your wounds are too deep. airport Return as soon as possible and continue your treatment.”
He marked the collapsed wall and once again pointed out the location of the secondary wing and the main building.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“Wounds come naturally when one wages war. atom Do not worry. atom I have no intention of dying before Siern celebrates her coming-of-age ceremony.”
Though writhing in pain, Melverot spoke while staring directly into Dereck’s eyes.
“Do not worry.”
“I wanted to subdue her completely with my own hands, but in the end it was not enough. auction The rest… can I entrust the conclusion to you?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
The blood flowing without cease seemed to cloud his consciousness—Melverot’s pupils were losing focus.
“Good. arctic At last today I will be able to cast off this old façade. antique If you manage to conclude it properly… then it will be worthy of… cough… cough…”
When Melverot coughed up blood again, Raviel, unable to keep watching, immediately ran to support him.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
It was then that Kalimford, after stepping out of the tent once more, spoke while holding his enormous oak staff.
As if praising the effort of an old friend, he gave him a couple of pats on the shoulder.
“Go in and rest, Melverot.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“…”
Then he bowed deeply to Melverot, who was gradually losing consciousness.
A simple farewell, yet Kalimford offered his respect with complete sincerity.
Perhaps when Melverot opened his eyes again, Kalimford would no longer exist in this world.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
He sat beside Dereck, who silently observed the count of Elvester’s mansion, and in a lighter voice than expected, spoke.
“In life, it is not bad to become a hero of the Empire once. palette From experience, I can tell you that with such an achievement, people around you even invite you to more meals.”
Watching Raviel help him back into the tent, Kalimford lifted his gaze once more.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
“Not at all. alert In truth, I was trembling so much my tongue went numb. arctic At the very least, I should have delivered some grandiose speech.”
Covered by his robe, Kalimford gave a bitter smile.
When Dereck stood and began to walk with determined steps, that former hero and legendary Archmage followed calmly behind him.
“Did you think that as well when you defeated Noir?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 205: Regicide of the Queen (1) by Indra Translations.
Walking behind Dereck, Kalimford lifted his gaze toward the sky above the count of Elvester’s mansion, filled with wandering souls.
The whirlwind of spirits swirling there strangely resembled the very entrance to heaven.
Heroes of the past are destined to vanish into the shadows of history.
