Episode 469 ‘Is he really here?’
Luisa was equally puzzled.
Ronian was one of McLane’s superhumans who were at war with the Empire and was a major force that could never be left out of the battlefield.
But if he came here to save himself, ignoring the country’s war…
I’m thrilled.
‘…That can’t be possible!’
I’m slowly going crazy too.
I lightly tapped my flushed cheek and tried to banish my idle thoughts, but I couldn’t help but feel my anticipation growing as I got closer to the loud noise coming from far away in the cave.
Feeling like her heart was beating faster for some reason, Luisa looked at Johnny Van next to her.
Luckily, Van Johnny, who wasn’t paying any attention to her, just gritted his teeth.
“This fast?”
As his complexion hardened, the anticipation in Luisa’s heart grew.
“Everyone ready for battle!”
Van Johnny, who was shouting with his face grotesquely contorted, suddenly looked at her, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly lowered his head.
“Elder, there are superhuman-level enemies in the mix. If I have served rudely in the past, please forget it and lend me your strength so that I can reliably subdue the enemies.”
An unexpected situation.
I wanted to hit his bowed head, but the distance between him and him was too close.
Moreover, out of the 200 black magic swordsmen he has, about 100 are in this advance team. She didn’t have the strength to handle all of their force.
For now, I have no choice but to pretend to cooperate…
“Of course.”
Although she knew that lying was a fatal poison for wizards, Luisa nodded calmly.
And at that moment, I felt the 6th circle in my heart becoming blurred.
Even if I couldn’t kill the enemy with just this one word, it would be enough for a month’s worth of training, but it was worth the loss.
“…Thank you, Elder.”
Because Johnny Van’s face, which had been lowering his head, was seen to become slanted in contrast to his answer.
‘This bastard…’
That was probably what he was aiming for.
A wizard who knows that lies are poison cannot tell lies, and even if he does, it will be obvious.
However, if there was something he missed, it was his own uniqueness.
‘This guy doesn’t really know me.’
As the princess of the royal family and the mage of the Kassel Magic Tower.
I wonder if he lied once or twice to maintain his dual identity.
– If you had trained diligently without being swayed by the environment, you might have become a mage before you came of age. It’s a waste, it’s a waste. Hehehe.
The owner of the tower, who was now my enemy, even said that.
Of course, after becoming a mage, the penalty got bigger, so I tried to avoid appearing in public as much as possible. In fact, the only time I ever lied outright after becoming a mage was when I first met King Logan.
However, the acting skills that I have developed throughout my life did not disappear in an instant.
“Leave the rest to me.”
The circle is once again blurred by a word that has not even a speck of sincerity.
But Luisa’s expression did not move, and Van Johnny’s face frowned even more when he saw her like that.
“…It’s a shame.”
It was almost like I was laughing at the sight of him not even hiding his intentions anymore.
“what?”
“No, no. Anyway, let’s deal with the enemy as quickly as possible. … But if you’re a superhuman who can come here at this time, no way…”
Van Johnny shakes his head, lost in thought, but Luisa is the back of that guy’s head. He looked at me and smiled cruelly.
‘If the people coming now are the elites of McLane as I think, then you will die by my hands.’
The clear hostility towards him did not come from a grandiose sense of justice, such as wanting to punish those who commit evil deeds.
Whether willingly or unwillingly, he himself used magic by sacrificing humans. I didn’t think I had the right to criticize Johnny Van’s evil deeds.
However, perhaps because of his obsession with appearance, he often showed a particularly cruel side to handsome and pretty people. This is not the first time that I have been unable to control my excitement when I look at myself.
Coexistence with a person who remembered that creepy feeling was absolutely impossible.
If it hadn’t been necessary to find out the location of the ceremony, I would have already killed him when he came alone to the safe house where he and his father were alone.
Just as Luisa was sharpening her sword in her mind, Van Johnny, who had finished pondering, looked back at her with a stern face.
“I don’t know what enemies will come, but we must not send them on the altar over there. Please make sure that they never touch that crystal coffin where Prince Baros, the body candidate, is sleeping.”
okay. I will definitely destroy that crystal tube.
After saying something that made Luisa’s eyes shine even brighter, Van Johnny began arranging the black magic swordsmen in a way that completely blocked the entrance to the cave.
How long has it been like that?
The rear team, including Gerrard, was seen running as if they were being chased, looking quite exhausted.
“Captain! They are temple temple bastards!”
“Damn it! Well, they’re the only ones who can move at this point.”
It seems like Johnny had guessed it, but Luisa couldn’t help but be taken aback by the unexpected development.
‘A temple? why?’
Let alone the fact that he is not McLane, what should he do if he is Seongguk?
Even if you hit Johnny in the back of the head at best, if you are caught by the Holy Kingdom as a mage of the Kassel Magic Tower, you could be worse than death.
A serious conflict arises in her mind.
[Luisa.]
The magic of my father’s message flew into my ears.
“The enemy is the enemy! Hah huh huh.”
A wizard who failed to become a mage had the same physical strength as an ordinary man, even if he was of the 5th circle, so the sight of Gerard sitting down and breathing heavily did not seem that strange.
However, unlike her appearance, the voice heard in Luisa’s ears was calm.
[It seems the temple knights followed your mark. It wasn’t long after the first explosion was heard that we caught up with the second group.]
With those words, Luisa made a decision.
And that moment.
“Down with the evil wizards!”
Pure white hair and pure white eyebrows. Even after going through a fierce battle in the cave, the armor and silver aura shine cleanly.
With the cry of Holy Spirit Knight Stefan Royer, nearly two hundred Holy Knights rushed into the square.
However, the magic swordsman’s counterattack was not easy.
“Now we are superior!”
“Fight back!”
Even the troops that were protecting Gerard and other kings of the four directions and those who appeared to be imperial collaterals of the empire all went on the offensive at once.
“Invisible Fog!”
“Target on Saint-circle. Berserker!”
“Curse!”
“Entangling Chaos!”
They emit gray fog and become transparent, or radiate red energy all over their bodies, throw out frantic sword strikes, use magic that confuses the mind, or hinder the movements of the paladins with gray thorn bushes.
The magic swordsmen literally poured out countless magic and rushed towards the paladins.
The sight, as if an equal number of swordsmen and wizards were attacking simultaneously, clearly showed why they were considered the elite of the Kassel Magic Tower.
But unfortunately, the compatibility was not good.
“Oh God!”
“I give it to you!”
Ugh.
The divine power, invisible to ordinary people, firmly avoided the magic of the Kassel Magic Tower and led to a sword-to-sword physical confrontation.
Moreover, those at the forefront of the Paladins were all superhumans who used divine auras.
At the front, Astro Haizen, a middle-aged man with a small, sturdy appearance, was pushing the magic swordsman, wearing a kite shield as big as his body and covered in silver holy energy.
Behind him, Anthony Everett, wielding a spear larger than his own height with a skinny body, spewed out a stream of silver aura and pierced the magic swordsmen.
Due to their combined efforts, the magic swordsman began to lose out badly.
but.
“Stop laughing, you servants of a false god!”
The moment a dwarf wielding a dark red aura came to the forefront, the situation took another turn.
Johnny the Dwarf was so small that even his head could not be seen during the melee. And, taking full advantage of his physical condition, he quickly dug into the gap in the enemy’s lines and strictly targeted only ordinary paladins, not superhumans.
“Ugh!”
“Mo body.”
“poison!?”
Anyone who touched his dark red aura even once became sluggish as if they had inhaled a powerful paralyzing poison, and immediately became a victim of other magic swordsmen.
It was then that Luisa came forward.
thud.
As soon as she stamped her feet, her magical energy began to move, and the body of Van Johnny, who was leading the melee among the magic swordsmen, stiffened for an instant.
“Dark Sky Barrier Soul Contamination! Freeze!”
“Profit! Crazy!”
The dark blue fog that covered Van Johnny’s body struck his soul, and a sharp chill began to freeze his entire body beneath his feet.
Macro magic, one of the visions of the Kassel Magic Tower and Luisa’s specialty. That perfect connection placed a strong bond that even Auror users could not easily escape.
The moment his movements stopped.
“In the arms of God!”
Anthony Everett, a holy spear who was once called the successor to the Divine Sword, rushed forward without missing the opportunity.
With the white-hot spear, his body accelerated for an instant and struck Van Johnny at a speed as if he were charging on horseback.
Wow!
bang.
Wow.
It dealt a certain fatal blow to the dwarf who was turning the tide of the war.
A dwarf flying with a large hole in its abdomen.
However, the owner of the wound, who did not think it would be surprising if he died immediately, twisted his body in the air and rushed at Luisa with his venomous eyes shining.
“You bitch how dare you betray the tower!”
The dark red aura became even darker as I held onto my stomach, which had a hole in it, with life coming out of it.
But when Luisa saw that, she smiled coldly and snapped her fingers.
The last of her macro magic.
“The devil appears.”
Her appearance, covered in dark red fog, instantly transformed into a bizarre shape.
A slim figure with two horns growing from the forehead and curved towards the top of the head.
Gray skin that makes her look strong despite her slender body.
And the bat’s wings spread out behind the back bigger than the body and the eyes glow like black flames.
Luisa’s hand, which transformed into the appearance of a truly fascinating devil, was engulfed in dark red energy and struck Van Johnny’s sword.
Wow!
“Oops!”
Although she was not talented in martial arts, she was powerful enough to throw away the already seriously injured Van Johnny.
Johnny Van, who coughed up blood from that blow, gritted his teeth and took out his last resort.
“Everyone is a martyr for Him! Defend the Holy Land!”
Was that cry the starting word for magic?
In an instant, the energy of the Black Magic Swordsman began to explode frighteningly.
Kwaaaaang!
Powerful enough to instantly push away the fighting Paladins.
‘Oh no…’
Luisa, who noticed that some of the energy from the magic circle on the ground had flowed into them, quickly punched the floor.
bang!
Even with her punches, which were strengthened to be close to those of an Auror user, there were no flaws in the magic circle.
Soon, Johnny Van, with veins clearly protruding all over his body, spoke in a strange voice as if making a declaration.
– This is our sacred place. No one can beat us here!
And it was only then that Luisa realized the tower owner’s intentions.
‘My choice was right.’
Even if Johnny Van was a former magic swordsman, how could he know the magic of the Kassel Magic Tower better than himself?
This whole situation was tantamount to showing that he had been completely excluded from the beginning.
‘Then what about betrayal?’
It was shocking, but overcoming this crisis was more urgent right now.
“Just take your time! Avoid it!”
There was a moment of concern as to whether everyone would follow what she said in the form of the devil, but fortunately, Stephen Royer accepted her words.
but.
“Are you Princess Luisa? A remorseful sinner?”
With that one word, Luisa was able to understand the context in which they came here.
By the way, I am a sinner who reflects…
Who says I am a sinner however I want?
I felt like crying, but there was no time to let it out.
– Everyone kill that enemy…
Johnny’s eyes rolled back and he began to let out a strange voice.
“There is no need to avoid it! Show the evildoers the true power of God!!”
At that moment, white light erupted from Stefan’s body along with a fierce shout.
Holy Spirit Knight Stephen Royer’s specialty: Blessing of Light.
The stumbling paladins straightened their postures, emitting holy radiance from their entire bodies.
“Subdue the enemies of God!”
The Holy Knights rush forward, led by the three vice-captains of the Knights Templar, who are engulfed in a brighter light than anyone else.
The demonic swordsmen, led by Johnny Van, who had changed into bizarre things, fought back like crazy, but their struggle did not last long.
“Cruk.”
“Off.”
“Oh my…”
The magic swordsmen who were attacking the Holy Knights began to collapse on their own at a certain point.
‘I applied too much force.’
Luisa, who immediately figured out the reason, felt relieved but at the same time pitiful.
Especially.
– I just want to grow taller…
When I heard Johnny Van’s last words, I felt a little pity for him.
“Sinners go to hell!”
Skag.
However, the moment Johnny Van’s head falls off with one word from Stefan.
“What is this…!!!”
A short old man appeared out of thin air with an angry voice.
