Scarlet Viper.
She was a femme fatale character who was especially popular among the various characters in?
Legend of Heroes 2.
When one selected a playable character from the Argon Empire, it became possible to go on an adventure together with her, which was the 'Search for the Rogue Master's Treasures,' a quest related to her.
'You can go along with her in collecting the Rogue Master's treasures.
'This was the reason why Jude knew where the Moon Crystal was hidden and the password to open the place.
One would eventually encounter that place when they cleared the quests related to Scarlet.
'But the problem is that she'll eventually become an enemy.
'One couldn't avoid becoming an enemy with Scarlet regardless of whichever playable character they chose.
'Soul Taker.
'A magic sword with a soul-taking demon sealed in it.
Having collected all the Rogue Master's treasures, Scarlet then tried to challenge and obtain the treasures of the ancient Mu Empire.
Scarlet tried to use the Soul Taker as a tool for demon hunting by suppressing the demon in it, but she failed in the end and fell under the control of the magic sword.
'But even then, she was still the Rogue Master.
'Scarlet fought against the magic sword with her superhuman willpower, and she eventually succeeded in reversing the situation and controlling the magic sword.
'The problem is…that event only occurred on the second half of?
Legend of Heroes 3.
'In other words, it could be said that Scarlet became an enemy in the later parts of?
Legend of Heroes 2.
A descendant of the 5th?
generation Rogue Master.
For the first time since the 1st?
Rogue Master, she had all the five treasures, making her a true Rogue Master.
'And a sword genius.
'She was a top swordmaster and one of the four great swordmasters in the entire?
Legend of Heroes?
series, though this was from the perspective of?
Legend of Heroes 3.
When it came to her talent, she was more of a genius than Lucas, and might even be a monster comparable to Maximilian.
'But…'That was something that would happen in the future.
Now, she was just a 19 year old young person.
'Of course, we are younger!
'If they considered their age after reincarnation, Jude and Cordelia were both 17 years old and two years younger than Scarlet.
But that wasn't what mattered now.
What mattered was that Cordelia perfectly aimed at Scarlet's gap and wrapped the detonating cord on her.
"Ack?!
"Scarlet groaned when the detonating cord tightly wrapped around her body, but that was all she could do.
She instantly tried to use her sword, but that alone couldn't help her.
Because Cordelia had moved instinctively.
Instead of considering this or that, she believed in her own sixth sense and did it.
"Explode!
""Eh?!
"Before Jude could say anything, Cordelia ignited the detonating cord and greatly stepped back.
Scarlet didn't know what the detonating cord was and only widely opened her eyes as she felt something ominous about it, and the detonating cord exploded at that moment.
Boooom!
What would happen when a detonating cord was tied to a person and it was detonated?
Jude immediately recalled something terrible, but fortunately, something like that didn't happen.
Instead of splattering blood and having maimed body parts, a completely different sight came into Jude's eyes.
"Red Dragon's Armor!
"One of the Rogue Master's five treasures.
It was thin and stuck to the body like a gymnastics suit, and it didn't have the dragon name for no reason.
Unlike its long johns appearance, it boasted a tremendous defensive power.
"You!
"And Scarlet exclaimed in anger.
It was not because she almost died if she did not have the Red Dragon's Armor.
It was not even because the outer garments she cherished were all torn from the explosion's impact.
Her hair.
It was because of her blood red, long and attractive hair!
It fluttered in the wind.
Nearly three-quarters were cut off by the explosion, and Scarlet quickly became a short-haired beauty from a long-haired beauty.
"Die!
"Scarlet hastily turned around and greatly swung her whip sword.
Bits of her half-torn clothes scattered in the wind, and her whip sword increased to more than three times in an instant as it aimed at Cordelia like a snake.
Shwaaak!
It was fast and accurate.
Nevertheless, Cordelia had already foreseen where the attack would come, so she managed to avoid the attack.
"Pink Bomb!
"Jude had then shouted and looked at Cordelia.
Cordelia immediately understood what Jude wanted her to do from looking at his eyes, so she rushed towards Scarlet.
"Don't play with me!
"Scarlet turned again and swung her whip sword.
This time, it was a cutting motion and not a piercing one, so Jude read its trajectory.
He kicked the ground at once and became a gale with his golden whirlwind.
Shwaaaaak!
The whip sword cut through the air.
Instead of retreating, Jude rushed faster and let the trajectory of the whip sword flow behind his back before he stretched out his hands and hugged Scarlet's waist.
"What?!
"Scarlet was bewildered because she had thought that she would get hit by an attack.
She hastily tried to hit Jude, but it was physically impossible.
Jude strengthened and tightened his hug on her waist, and she unknowingly screamed and tilted her head backwards.
And Cordelia hugged Scarlet from behind.
Scarlet was confused again when Cordelia used her mana and held the Moon Crystal in front of Scarlet's face.
"Moon Crystal Power!
"The moment she quickly shouted the spell, moonlight shone down from the sky and Scarlet realized the purpose of the two.
Space leap.
They wanted to leave their current location first!
"Get them!
""Shoot!
"As the personnel gathered in the garden shot their crossbows, dozens of arrows instantly covered the sky, but it was already too late.
The moonlight faded, and the two plus Scarlet leapt over space.
And right after that.
At a vacant lot outside the outer wall, a few kilometers or more from Count Macan's mansion.
Thud!
Jude, Cordelia, and Scarlet transcended space with the moonlight and landed on the ground, and at that moment, Scarlet promptly activated the Red Dragon's Armor.
"Flame Dragon!
"The red dragon who lived in flames!
Having recited the spell, a dragon's flame rose from the entire Red Dragon's Armor.
But Jude and Cordelia were already prepared for it.
Cordelia hurriedly released her hug and jumped back, while Jude threw Scarlet away.
Bang!
She hit the ground hard enough that a roar was heard, but Scarlet stood up right away.
The Red Dragon's Armor had absorbed the shock of her being thrown.
"Ugh…"But she wasn't completely unharmed.
She had stood up, but she gritted her teeth while making a pained face instead of attacking them right away.
'As I thought!
We are still stronger!
'Jude nodded at Cordelia's gaze.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Scarlet was in fact, stronger and superior when compared to her peers, and the same could be said of Jude and Cordelia.
Moreover, she was alone now while Jude and Cordelia were two.
'We can win now.
'We can defeat her before she had become one of the four great swordmasters.
And it was at that moment.
Scarlet pulled out a dagger from her waist and threw it, and at the same time, Cordelia swung her detonating cord.
Shwaaak-!
Bang!
The detonating cord exploded in the air and shook the atmosphere.
Scarlet's dagger brushed Cordelia's cheek, and when the furious Jude kicked the ground, Scarlet activated the Wings of Speed and rushed towards Cordelia.
Wings of Speed.
A relic from Magellan that granted its user not only the ability to float, but also the ability to rapidly accelerate!
It was just an instant.
A distance of more than a few meters was nothing to the Wings of Speed.
But this was Cordelia.
Her instincts had already sensed the danger before Scarlet had even activated the Wings of Speed.
At the moment when the Wings of Speed activated, her most efficient counterattack was her reflexes.
Bang!
Telekinetic power.
It burst like an explosion and pushed away Scarlet who had rushed to her at a terrifying speed.
Scarlet bounced and rolled over the ground a lot because her rushing speed was seriously fast, and Cordelia did not miss that opportunity.
She followed with her eyes and triggered her magic at the same time.
"!
"Spell's Echo, Double Casting, and high-speed chanting in succession!
Bababababababang-!
Twenty magic missiles was instantly created and pursued Scarlet.
The magic missiles' tracking ability was almost doubled because of Melissa's assistance in the Moonlight.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Scarlet turned in the air and swung her whip sword to protect herself at the same time, and the magic missiles that were cut and split by the whip sword exploded, causing a chain explosion.
And in those explosions, Scarlet flew.
She spread her white Wings of Speed and soared into the night sky, and she looked down to the ground with a very enraged face while Cordelia stared at Scarlet.
"Crazy b*tch!
"As Scarlet let out a curse, Cordelia responded by widely opening her eyes and raising her middle finger.
"What are you saying, you lowly b*tch!
""Woah, woah, so much swearing…"Jude unknowingly said that, but neither Scarlet nor Cordelia paid him any attention.
Scarlet continued as she pointed her finger at Cordelia.
"I can't forgive you!
I'll never forgive you!
""Why should a b*tch like you forgive me?
Are you my unnie?
My master?
Your head is like you put red chili paste with anchovies in your hair!
"Jude was stunned for a moment at her swearing that poured out like a storm, but he soon realized it.
She had been cursing less recently, but Cordelia was originally a foul-mouthed person who always cursed with her mouth.
'But Cordelia, your hair is reddish too.
'Jude held back his thoughts from coming out of his mouth, and Scarlet shouted again.
"Aaaah!
Okay!
Okay!
I can forgive you for being Rogue Master!
I can understand!
The Rogue Master is one who moves in the night under the moonlight, and is a position everyone grew up envying!
"Scarlet spoke as she poured out her words, clenching her fists while trembling.
She then shouted again as she pointed her finger to Cordelia.
"But!
But!
Pink Bomb?!
The Rogue Master's name is Pink Bomb?!
I can forgive everything else, but I can't forgive that!
"She said that.
And that was it.
The reason why Scarlet was mad in anger.
The reason why she chose to go to the royal capital instead of returning to the empire.
Pink Bomb.
The Rogue Master's name was Pink Bomb!
"You have the dignity of a Rogue Master!
But what the hell is Pink Bomb!
Pink Bomb!
"At Scarlet's intense criticism, Cordelia clenched her teeth and couldn't say anything in return at that moment.
Because Cordelia actually had the same thought as her.
But her silence wasn't that long.
Cordelia clenched her fist again and let out a barrage of curses.
"Why are you saying sh*t about my name!
So what?!
What can you do?
You're not my Ju- anyway!
It's none of your business, okay?!
"It was bad.
Once again, it was really bad.
The naming sense was the worst ever.
But it was still a name Jude had given her.
Cordelia had unconsciously thought that it was fine criticizing it if it was her, but she couldn't tolerate others criticizing it.
'You dare criticize it!
'Who do you think you are to criticize my Jude!
The determined Cordelia spread out her wings of light instead of talking any more, and Scarlet was shocked and surprised at Cordelia's wings of light.
"Wings of Speed?!
""Mine is better, okay?!
"After all, the Wings of Speed were imitations made by Magellan's high elves in order to imitate the wings of angels!
Cordelia flew straight like an arrow, and Scarlet swung her sharp whip sword.
Despite being almost 20 years old, the power of the sword was terrifying like that of her future great swordmaster self.
But Cordelia was not afraid.
She continued her charge instead of blocking or avoiding it.
Shwaaak!
The whip sword cut Cordelia.
No, it tried to cut but couldn't.
Fairy Steps.
Cordelia escaped the sword by using her last use of Fairy Steps for today.
She hugged Scarlet's waist and made a vertical flight towards the ground as she rotated their bodies.
"Are you crazy?!
""Front Lotus!
"Cordelia held Scarlet as they turned around and headed to the ground.
Scarlet couldn't even scream because of the terrifying dive in their flight.
And in an instant.
Cordelia released Scarlet right before they hit the ground.
She soared high against the immense gravity.
Boom!
The ground shook with a loud noise after she collided.
Having collided into the ground, Scarlet's body twitched as she let out a breathless sound.
She did not die.
But her whole body was numb and tingling, and she couldn't properly breathe.
Even if her Red Dragon's Armor was that good, it couldn't completely reduce the damage she received.
"Ack…Ugh…"Scarlet groaned as she gritted her teeth and stood up, but that was her limit.
It was the same with Cordelia who also suffered from her reckless flying, but there was a crucial difference between the two.
She wasn't alone.
Because there weren't only two people in this place right now.
"Finish it.
"Cordelia said, and Jude had already drew closer to Scarlet.
Scarlet desperately swung her whip sword but he avoided it and placed his palm on her abdomen.
He struck his energy directly to the shock-absorbing Red Dragon's Armor.
Heart of the Sun.
One of the five techniques of the Supreme Sun Divine Art that pushed the condensed sun's energy into the enemy's interior.
The energy of the black sun passed through the Red Dragon's Armor and struck Scarlet's abdomen.
