Helmut
Episode 481
Elaga stood and looked down at the humans. They were Helmut’s colleagues who had come a long way.
Helmut’s home was already outside the forest of Pahe.
I don’t think I need you anymore. Now that 20 years of care have ended, I feel relieved.
[Begins.]
Elaga closed her eyes, then opened them, and there was darkness in her pupils.
Pasasasasa.
Demonic energy surged from his entire body along with a gust of wind.
His demonic energy rose like a whirlwind and began to suck in demonic energy from all around him.
The light flowing from Xian’s body became stronger.
[I could give you a gift before I go.]
Elaga gestured toward Helmut. Helmut approached him.
Strangely enough, Helmut was not swept away by Elaga’s magical energy.
Elaga silently bowed her head to Helmut. Elaga’s head moved closer to being about two steps in the air.
At that moment, Helmut felt its presence writhing in his chest.
sprout of darkness. Even in the fight against the Demon King, it obeyed control and jumped like a fish.
The movement was uncontrollable and strong. As if trying to break away.
[Let it go.]
Helmut relaxed at Elaga’s voice. I felt something cool coming out of my chest like smoke.
That little black lump.
The thing that had been embedded in Helmut’s heart since birth was floating between Elaga and Helmut like a small piece of his soul.
“How…”
[It escaped on its own following the pull to the source.] As
soon as Elaga finished speaking, it was immediately drawn into Elaga’s demonic energy. Like being caught in a storm.
[I am this guy’s new home. And you are free.]
Freedom. It was out of nowhere and sudden.
Helmut placed his hand on my chest. There were times when I despaired of its existence, but when it disappeared, I felt empty.
I felt vis filling in where the darkness had disappeared.
Now he was no longer the holder of cursed power. Just a human being and a prosecutor.
Helmut clenched and unclenched his hands. Now, all that is left in my body is weak demonic energy and vis that is slowly recovering.
“Elaga.”
Helmut looked up at him with his eyebrows furrowed.
A violent surge of emotion rose up and took over him.
Elaga blinked quietly. Like cats greeting each other.
[Don’t look at me like I’m going to die, but pray that I live well.]
“Don’t die.”
[If I’m lucky, I’ll see you again.]
Elaga muttered like that and flicked her magic energy towards Helmut.
Helmut fell backwards and landed on his seat.
[Anyway, it was already goodbye when you left Pahe Forest. Don’t be too salty.]
It was next to Area. Helmut gritted his teeth and grabbed her outstretched hand.
[Go.]
Elaga’s voice rang out. Sian nodded.
Coogggggg.
The entrance to the demon world that Xian had forcibly closed was opening.
So that we can go deeper than before and connect the demon world and this forest of Pahe, even if just for a moment.
It was an abyss that threatened to swallow everything.
The entrance to the demon world beneath Elaga’s feet opened wide, and a wind blew so strong that it was difficult to open her eyes.
The wizards set up a barrier to protect the group gathered in one place.
As everyone watched, Elaga looked down into the deep cave below her.
There was so much darkness inside that you could neither see nor feel anything that even monsters would be reluctant to enter.
Elaga stood with her feet crossed at the entrance to a cave that deepened at an angle.
All of the magic energy coming from the entrance to the demon world flowed into Elaga’s body. No, all the demons around were like that.
Elaga seemed like a huge lake that had dried up due to drought.
Even though an enormous amount of magical energy was pouring into him, he absorbed it without stopping.
[Good luck to you all.]
Helmut was caught in the sight of Elaga who raised her head and said only a final greeting.
Elaga took one last look at the human she had raised, and then walked straight away.
thud. thud.
With a dull rumbling of the ground, a huge white leopard disappeared into the cave. Just like the moon disappearing into the night.
Following him, the demonic energy of the forest of Pahe was rapidly sucked inward.
Following Elaga, I am returning to where I came from.
When the flow stopped, the ground moved.
Purr.
Black quicksand gathered and the entrance closed.
The entrance to the demon world that swallowed Elaga was silent, and only black rocks decorated the ground.
The air where the demonic energy had disappeared was so clear that it was hard to believe that this was Pahe Forest.
“Levant, it’s your turn. “Hurry up.”
A sparkle flashed through Sian’s eyes. The power of the earth spirit was pressing down on the entrance to the demon world.
Now it’s time to drive a wedge.
Divine power was needed to sever the connection between the demon world and this world.
The Levant moved as if being led.
The holy sword that had been returned to his waist was shining again in his grasp.
Get on it!
He ran straight ahead and approached the black rock.
By the time we got there, the light coming from the holy sword had become so intense that it was blinding.
“In the name of Lumen!”
With a single word, Levant thrust the holy sword into the center of the place with all his might. By pouring out all his divine power at once.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
With a sound like a stone being ground, the entire blade of his sword was deeply embedded vertically.
Soon a strong wind struck the Levant. He flew away like a leaf and fell to the ground.
“Ugh!”
While he was standing up, the holy sword was showing its full power.
A pillar of light fell from the sky and hit the holy sword.
An enormous amount of divine power was raining down on the holy sword.
The holy sword summons the power of the sacred barrier to Lumen and descends on the spot.
The sight of the sun descending on the ground was majestic and holy, like a scene from a myth.
The sacred power gathered in the holy sword was transformed into light and was seen extending like veins through the rock.
There were cracks in the rock. The simultaneous destruction of divine power and demonic energy took place there. Finally, fiercely!
The winner was clear.
Kusa sasak! Grumble!
After a while, the rock crashed down with a loud noise.
Fragments of the rock melted and disappeared in a remnant of pure white light.
And when the fading light completely disappeared, the Holy Sword, which had lost all its strength and had become a piece of iron, fell to the floor.
And where it fell, it crumbled into powder and scattered around.
As a result, the entrance to the demon world was completely broken and closed.
Unless someone artificially creates a connection between the worlds, the Demon World will never open again.
The strange light in Xian’s eyes gradually disappeared. His mouth moved.
“It’s all over. Now…”
The power flowing from his body suddenly stopped. Sian fell to the floor like a doll whose strings had been cut.
Asuka ran over and looked at him.
“I lost consciousness!”
“Can I just go back now?”
Luke Yeager asked with a cautious face. At that time, a distorted noise rang out as if it would rip my eardrums.
Giiiiiiing! Tudung!
The whole atmosphere shook.
No, the entire space where they stood. Everything, from the earth to the sky, was shaking.
“Space is collapsing! “Everyone come here.”
Area shouted loudly. Asuka, carrying Levant and Xian on her back, quickly gathered around.
“There’s no way I can escape with movement magic.”
Heike calmly opened his mouth. As the sacred barrier, which had exhausted its power, collapsed, the seal on the Forest of Pahe was released.
And in the aftermath, this entire central space becomes distorted.
There was nowhere to escape and there was a huge wave coming from all directions.
Area hurriedly opened the dungeon.
If I failed to defeat the Demon King, I had to resort to my last resort of hiding with Helmut.
This place has the power to use magic because there was a magic stone brought with it.
However, it was not easy because the surrounding atmosphere was chaotic. Heike grabbed her shoulder as she looked nervous.
“Slow down. “I will support you with a protective barrier.”
“yes.”
My mind quickly calmed down. Area tried again. After much effort, she was able to open the entrance to the dungeon.
Although the border was shaky, it was wide enough for people to pass through.
“Come on in!”
Asuka and Luke Jaeger Levant, carrying Xian on their backs, quickly stepped inside.
Helmut looked back for a moment, but was forced to turn back inside by Alea’s stubborn nod.
Now only Area and Heike remain.
“Hey, you go in too.”
Heike shook his head weakly.
“I am holding up a protective barrier. “You go in first.”
Alea’s eyes wavered.
Heike was right. The proper order is for you to go in first, and then Heike to remove the protective barrier and go inside.
As soon as the protective barrier disappears, this space will be crushed.
The problem is that you cannot know whether the entrance to the dungeon will remain open even after you enter.
It could barely be opened from the outside. When the medium himself disappears, the dungeon becomes…
“Hey.”
“Hurry.”
“You…”
There is no other way. If Heike enters first and Area dies while remaining, the dungeon will lose its owner.
The outer space is not intact, and if the dungeon collapses, the life and death of those inside cannot be guaranteed.
“I am an archmage. “There must be a way.”
Heike smiled. It was her unique, confident smile. That moved the area.
‘Yes, because it’s Heike.’
Since she was an archmage, she was able to do things beyond what she knew. It’s probably a needless worry.
Area shed his hesitation and entered the dungeon entrance.
“Follow me right away.”
Just leaving those words behind. Heike looked at the entrance to the dungeon where everyone had disappeared.
She couldn’t go in there.
The entrance to the dungeon is connected to this place. The ripple effect from the collapse of the sacred barrier was enough to crush that area.
Your role is to completely close the dungeon entrance and remove it so that it cannot affect you.
Heike destroyed all the last remaining magic stones and increased his magic power.
The protective barrier was getting narrower. Her magical power was also depleted at a rapid rate.
It is accelerating. Maybe soon.
But there was a faint smile on Heike’s lips.
‘I lived long enough.’
I am fortunate to be able to clear my name and be left behind as an archmage who died doing great things.
She thought of her son for the first time in a long time.
‘He was a very handsome guy.’
He was a fairly talented wizard, but unfortunately he died young.
Still, since I took responsibility for raising Area, let’s assume that I have repaid my debt.
Heike raised his hand and closed the dungeon entrance.
Just as Xian closed the entrance to the demon world. After blocking the space and completely blocking the entrance, the magic power was withdrawn.
The protective barrier went beyond where the dungeon was and shrank all the way in front of me. Now there is no place to run away.
‘I hope you are happy.’
Heike closed his eyes.
Soon the protective barrier was shattered.
Quad deuk!
