Helmut
Episode 300
The movement of the temple was fast.
By the time the two archmages, Heike Antiol, realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
Heike, who moved near the southern part of the sacred barrier, soon felt a familiar energy approaching the barrier.
The moment Heike confirmed their presence with his own eyes, he cursed under his breath.
‘Damn it.’
Not all high priests can vacate the temple. It is impossible for the six high ministers to be here together.
However, here were three high priests, exactly the three people Heike and Antiol had requested, approaching the sacred barrier.
‘Levina, Agato, and even Paul.’
One of the temple’s missions is to take care of the sacred barrier. The possibility of this happening was not ruled out at all.
But that is by far the worst possibility.
‘That possibility has now become a reality.’
If they touch the sacred barrier, the adamantium suppressing the sacred power in all four directions will shatter like shards of glass.
A signal was immediately sent to Antiol. We need to buy time by holding them back until he arrives.
His heart was burning with anxiety, but Heike kept his head calm. In times like these, you need to remain calm.
She looked closely at those who came from the temple.
‘The power is amazing. ‘I guess he thought this was important.’
When the three high priests gathered, the presence or absence of a Paladin was not very important, but there were even Paladins surrounding them.
No matter how great a wizard he is, he is not a being who wields absolute force.
The reason Heike and Antiol were able to survive despite being publicly nominated by the temple was partly because they did not directly clash with the temple.
If they hid themselves, it was almost impossible to track them even as a temple.
But now a conflict is inevitable.
‘We must prevent them from contacting the sacred barrier!’
But how?
Instead of answering the question, Heike appeared before them. Conflict begins face to face.
“you!”
The Holy Knights who were at the forefront of guarding the high priest pointed their swords at the beautiful female wizard with silver hair who suddenly appeared.
They felt as if they were seeing something magical in Heike’s appearance.
Levina, who was feeling magical energy from the surrounding atmosphere, raised the corners of her mouth. It was her signature merciful smile.
“You are… the wizard Heicero. “I guess Antiol didn’t come with you?”
Antiol must also be running to join us.
However, unlike Heike, Antiol is not risking his life or death on this matter.
No matter how crazy a research-mad archmage may be, there is no guarantee that he will risk his life in a fight against a temple.
But Heike was different. Because the only flesh and blood she must protect is within that sacred barrier!
‘Whoever hits first wins!’
Heike cast a magic spell without replying.
“Earth’s Frenzy!”
Crumbling!
Suddenly, an earthquake occurred on the floor.
The Paladins, who had been waiting for a signal for a massive attack from below, also lost their balance and stumbled.
Dust rose up to fill my vision. Heike fired an attack spell again.
“Dance of the Wind!”
Swirling dust covered the surroundings.
A hazy, earthy fog.
Unless the intention is to suffocate, it is difficult to see it as a direct magical attack.
Coughing sounds came from the paladins rolling around on the floor.
At that time, High Priest Agato’s hands glowed white. The earth, which was going crazy, was gradually calmed down by his divine power.
It was the same with the dust. Since it is magic that caused this natural phenomenon, if the magic power that powers it as divine power is pushed out, the magic effect will naturally disappear.
Agato spat out with a solemn face.
“That witch is just trying to bide her time.”
“why? Does that state of the sacred barrier mean anything to them? “I can’t feel the energy of black magic, so what are the magicians trying to gain by weakening the sacred barrier?”
High priest Paul, who had had a sour expression on his face until now, removed his hand covering his mouth and spoke.
A sudden thought occurred to High Priest Agato, and he frowned.
‘I wonder if there’s someone in there.’
Four years ago, they banished a Dark Sprout holder from the Grand Duchy of Rinosa named Helmut.
There was a good chance that he was still alive in Pahe Forest.
But how can he and the archmages be connected? Helmut is a prosecutor.
Levina shook her head, leaving him in confusion.
“Whatever that means, it will be resolved once the sacred barrier is restored. But the barrier is over there and it’s annoying. Let’s split the group. “Anyway, it only takes one high priest to contact the barrier.”
Agato nodded.
“Levina, take the opportunity and contact the barrier. We will deal with her.”
Heike also does not attack them outright, but deals with them from a safe distance. If you try to catch her first, she will slip away like a loach.
It was better to achieve the goal without wasting time as she intended. It was a practical solution.
Levina nodded.
“I will.”
Magic is not the exclusive domain of wizards. Although the properties of the power are different, it is possible to achieve similar effects with holy magic.
In other words, the high priest was a wizard equivalent to an archmage.
High Priest Levina left his clone as an illusion next to the other two high priests and performed a stealth spell.
This side is obscured, but Heike probably won’t be able to see the situation on this side either. They’re pouring out magic like that.
Levina’s decision was one.
‘No matter what commotion happens here, I’m heading to the sacred barrier.’
It’s enough for that witch to get her due after that.
Kugwagwagwang! Coogung!
Heike knocked down trees and shook the ground, blocking the path of the priests and destroying them.
However, because of that, she did not have the energy to look closely at the conditions of the high priests.
If she had paid a little more attention, she would have noticed Levina’s absence.
But from the beginning, to Heike, the high priests were stuffy and old-fashioned people.
Her prediction was that such people would not choose to leave behind their achievements, but her prediction was wrong.
‘Something is strange.’
At some point, Heike stopped attacking and turned his head towards the sacred barrier.
And saw. A woman standing right in front of the barrier.
Heike knew who she was.
High Priest Levina!
‘The high priest moved in secret without being escorted by the paladins?’
It felt like my blood was running cold. It must be stopped.
She launched herself at Levina and used direct attack magic for the first time.
“Blade of Wind!”
However, her magic aimed at Levina’s back was scattered in the air by the divine power of the other two high priests as it flew toward its goal.
High Priest Agato shouted with a stern expression.
“How dare you attack a high priest, this is absolutely unreasonable! Heike, the hero of the temple. “I will take your life here today!”
Levina did not look back. She entered the sacred barrier and became safe from magical attacks.
Just one step to the goal. Levina, bathed in translucent light within the sacred barrier, closed her eyes.
‘This is the power of Lumen.’
A huge flow of divine power. There, as a high priest, she felt freedom and deep rest. It was even sweet.
A place as comfortable as inside your mother’s womb.
Soon, enormous power began to radiate from Levina’s body.
White light spread softly within the opaque barrier. It only took a moment for her power to spread across the entire sacred barrier.
It seemed like there was a sound of hard metal crunching somewhere.
The adamantium that was suppressing the core of your barrier was shattered.
Heike also sensuously felt the changes taking place in the divine barrier. Their plans, too, were falling apart.
‘Area!’
Even as he screamed internally, Heike swallowed the name into his mouth. In the meantime, they were concerned that the temple would learn of Area’s existence.
She was so preoccupied that she didn’t even notice the presence of the paladin approaching behind her. The moment he plunges his sword into Heike,
boom!
There was a tremendous impact on the armor. The paladin flew through the air like a stone.
Standing next to Heike was a monocle-wearing wizard with a long white beard.
Unlike usual, his face does not feel relaxed at all.
“Luckily it’s not too late.”
It was Antiol.
As soon as he arrived, he had already figured out the current situation. But Heike shook his head.
“late. They have already restored the barrier. “Area probably couldn’t get out.”
If I had escaped, I would have contacted Heike immediately.
The lack of contact means that the barrier was restored before Area and the others left the barrier.
If they collided with the sacred barrier at that high altitude, the wizard would lose his magic instantly, so even Area would be in danger.
“They will notice the abnormality before they try to cross the barrier, so they will also retreat. Helmut won’t be able to leave the Forest of Pahe, but others will be able to get out in other ways, so don’t worry too much. I feel sorry too. But you did your job. “Let’s just leave.”
But Heike did not move. Magical power rose from her body as if to defend herself.
The worst case scenario was pictured in Heike’s mind. Something like a falling area.
She looked at Antiol with devastated eyes. Antiol frowned as he looked towards the people in the temple.
Now that the high priests and paladins have achieved their goal, they will turn their target to the temple’s public enemies. I had to avoid this place quickly.
Antiol grabbed her shoulder.
“Area wouldn’t want you to die here. He is a smart and excellent wizard. And that boy named Helmut…”
Antiol frowned.
Helmut has already created a miracle. Couldn’t we expect a similar miracle this time too?
An inappropriate idea for an archmage. But Antiol could not ignore the anticipation rising from within his heart.
Heike bit his lip and spoke before Antiol could continue.
“all right.”
The shock had worn off and her senses had returned to her.
Antiol immediately cast a movement spell.
Although movement magic is inherently difficult, it does not take much time for them to cast it as they are great wizards.
That magic was also the power that freed them from the temple’s pursuit.
After a while, they disappeared from the spot as if their images had been erased.
