30. The Demon King Descends (4)
“You…
“This is what I also heard from the Zodiac Knights.”
“The owner of Flambe?”
Yulgeum tilted his head.
Meanwhile, Skatul gave Atisha a fairy greeting.
He hugged her, pressed his cheek to her, and lowered his head.
“This is Skatul, son of Thora.”
“Thor! “I know his name.”
“Are you the Imam of El Shallum?”
” right.”
“I am currently serving Deus as my master.”
“ah! “Because of you, they weren’t surprised when they saw the fairy!”
Yulgeum opened his mouth again.
“But why are you here? “What does it have to do with the Deus family’s butler that the warriors received the oracle?”
“That’s relevant.”
Scatul laughed and scratched his head.
“An unexpected guest came to visit. Would you say there were circumstances that forced me to accompany you?”
He gave an ambiguous answer and pointed to the sailing ships anchored on the distant shore and preparing for landing.
“You will be truly amazed. “When Cadenza brought him to the store, I thought he was playing some kind of prank.”
“It looks like Cadenza and Oridon are here too.”
“It’s not just them. All nine Zodiac Knights gathered together and
brought their entire unit. “In addition to them, many G-class or higher warriors have led private troops, so now close to 30% of the Joseon Continent’s armed forces are gathered on that ship and on the opposite shore.”
Scatul’s story was not an exaggeration.
Each sailing ship could carry about 100 troops.
There are five such sailing ships.
If it is full of warriors and their companions, what you can see is a group of 500 warriors gathered here.
“Oracles and temples. “There are 20 years left
until the final war .”
Skatul gave a short reply to Yulgeum’s words.
“The devil is over there. If you turn a blind eye, you will be disqualified as a warrior.”
At the mention of the devil, Yulgeum unconsciously thought of Deus.
The Horsetail Peninsula is now an island.
What on earth is going on here?
At that time, about W small landing boats arrived at the shore one after another. What
caught Yulgeum’s attention
was a person at the back of the boat where Kaden’s car was riding.
girl.
The child is at most 10 years old.
It was a really young girl.
She was wearing the attire of a saint. A long decoration, like a priest’s gauntlet, stretched from the hat to the feet, and the pure white dress had countless platinum decorations.
The moment Yulgeum saw the cane the child was holding, he felt a little confusion.
That was clearly a saint’s scepter.
It was a cane made from rhododendron wood that the first saint who received an oracle 666 centuries ago received as a sacred item from God.
The official name is The broom of destruction.
It meant the anger of God who destroys the demons.
A young girl got off the boat holding a rickety tree as big as she was tall.
Cadenza held her hand and supported her as if she was grateful.
The girl was embarrassed and was supported by the cadenza.
“Do you know who it is?”
Skatul asked.
Yulgeum suddenly remembered that he had never seen her in person.
Is it God’s will?
Even though I always heard about it and lived not far away, how could I have never seen it in almost a year?
“Signi.”
“Purebloodedness has also exceeded 10%. “They said it narrowly fell short of Zeke’s record.”
“lie.”
“In that case, Seonghwangcheong must have lied.”
Yulgeum glared at Scottl.
“What kind of joke is this? Michael? “Isn’t this your joke?”
Scatul gently avoided Yulgeum’s gaze.
Yulgeum spoke again.
“Who came in the middle? Whose joke is this? Why did the Demon King descend and the warriors begin to awaken? “Who was it that turned the attention clock on its own?”
Scatul bowed his head.
“How dare lowly things discuss the cogs of the world?”
“It sounds like you’re mocking me.”
” you’re welcome.”
“Okay, if you go to the end, you’ll understand. “A road is just a line connecting two points.”
Yulgeum approached the girl who got off the boat.
She bowed her head to Yulgeum.
“I heard a lot from my brother. Signy Pan Jade. “He’s your brother Zeke’s younger brother.”
Yulgeum placed his thumb on her forehead.
“May the Lord’s protection be with you. Wicked things will never take advantage of your good intentions.”
Signi was surprised.
“You can’t believe it…
Yulgeum put her finger to her lips.
” Shh.”
Yulgeum then looked at the cadenza and spoke.
“Can I hear how things are going?”
Cadenza nodded and opened his mouth.
“Everything is God’s will. The story goes back a month. When I broke up with Zeke and headed to Seonghwangcheong, a very big meeting was waiting for me there. Where is Zeke now?”
Yulgeum pointed to the forest with his hand.
“In the forest of delusion.”
“Forest of Deception?”
“It’s a kind of labyrinth.”
“Then… I guess we should destroy it.”
“It won’t be easy.”
“We Zodiac Knights, called by God, have no enemies.”
Sailboats crossed the sea several times and brought warriors to this shore.
It was nothing short of spectacular.
The flags of countless Holly families fluttered in the coastal wind.
The impatient warriors have already started destroying the outskirts of the forest.
No matter how excellent the forest’s recovery ability was, it was impossible to withstand the attacks of numerous warriors.
A large passage began to lead to Mount A Gaiatta, where the Demon King was staying.
At their center were the Zodiac Knights.
Hundreds of troops, led by the banner of the Twelve Constellations, dozens of knights, and even a slave army from the Seed Wizards, were moving around one paladin.
The Zodiac’s formidable fighting power was a wall that even the top-class warrior families of the Jose Continent could not overcome.
Among them, Cadenza, the Knight of Libra, had a special mission.
That mission is to escort Saint Signi.
According to the oracle, Cadenza’s duty was to protect the saint who held the Rodemwood Staff of Destruction.
Skatul, Yulgeum Sadimus, and Atisha were also heading north with Cadenza and Signi.
Signi sat next to Yulgeum and kept her mouth shut.
He seemed nervous, but he didn’t seem to be the type to talk much.
“Because you’re like that, you look like your brother.”
“yes? four.”
“The corners of the mouth are similar. “Zeek also has deep dimples when he closes his mouth.”
“That’s right, Onii-sama!”
As Signi spoke, she covered her mouth with her hand.
“sorry. I dare to say to you,
“It’s okay if you don’t observe propriety so harshly. “I’m just Eulgeum, an adventurer.”
“Yes•
“You really have acquired some special ability. “You recognize me.”
“The moment Yulgeum’s hand touched my forehead,
a glow appeared around Yulgeum’s head.”
“You must have seen my true face.”
“yes.”
“You siblings are really special. “I can only say it was fate.”
“Is your brother okay?”
“I don’t know much about Zeke yet.”
Signy shook his head slightly.
“I heard it from Cadenza on the way. He said he realized the aura and gained great power. But I don’t know. “I hope nothing
bad happens to my brother .”
Yulgeum laughed.
“That won’t happen. “That child… has the power to change bad luck into good luck.”
The worst luck in Zeke’s life was being noticed by the devil.
However, from the looks of Yulgeum, things are going quite well.
I saw SIGNI again.
Her dark brown hair was neatly organized, and she was wearing a hat decorated with a long bow.
The good-natured impression
was more than just Zeke’s.
“You took a pureblood test?”
“Yes… I was blessed by His Holiness’s special consideration.”
“How was your brother?”
“Regin didn’t do it. I’m 5 years old now. “I’m with my friends at the Whistling Bird Pavilion south of Acoma.”
“It looks like no oracle was given to him.”
“yes.”
“Have you also… met the Lord of Victory?”
“Are you talking about Michael?”
« o ” huh.
“I saw you. “It was so dazzling and so hot that I couldn’t get close.”
Yulgeum swallowed a short moan.
It was so elaborate.
The volcano explodes, bringing chaos to the human world and descending a false demon king into Horsetail Woods.
It was an idea too bold for the Seven Dukes of the Demon World.
Besides, I couldn’t see anything in front of it.
“What are you suspecting?” Cadenza
rode his horse to a nearby place.
His expression was full of confidence. In a sense, the warrior who met the messenger of God could be said to have come closer to perfection.
A warrior is originally a human being who has received the work of God.
As God’s representative, his first mission was to fight against the devil while receiving the protection of angels.
Generation zero.
In other words, this was the reason why the three generations of warriors destined to fight the Demon King were able to use a special power called Aura
.
The remaining four generations were merely a bridge between the Zero Generation and the Zero Generation.
Although they were called warriors, the other four generations of warriors actually rarely had the opportunity to feel the angel’s protection.
God’s voice is even more distant.
If faith in God is the source of a warrior’s power, compared to Generation Zero, the faith of other warriors was limited to a superficial and conceptual image.
But Cadenza and Oridon saw an angel.
I spoke with him and received orders directly from him.
His faith as a warrior could not help but be further strengthened. Even if there were limitations to being a pureblood, the two of them would have already achieved a power that transcended four generations.
That strength would soon be expressed as confidence.
“This war is a holy war. I don’t know why the Demon King appeared at this time, but since he has appeared, war is inevitable. That is probably why Michael himself appeared.”
Yulgeum did not give any answer to his words.
666th century.
The order that had been maintained for so long was about to collapse.
What should Jin Geum-yong himself do?
You have a powerful clan called dragons and you still have to remain silent?
Deus came to mind.
I wanted to talk to him at this moment.
We sat side by side at Zeke’s stall
and had a few drinks.
I longed for a time that would never come again.
It was Lakhe who emerged victorious in a difficult fight.
She took over a 100-meter radius of land, creating a vacant lot in the middle of the forest of the Demon World.
Next to Lakhe, who was curled up like a peak and sleeping, Zeke could not let go of his hand.
It felt like it would wither if I let go.
“The hero is amazing.”
“Are you awake?”
“Just by being around you gives me the courage to not be defeated by anyone. This forest was really strong. “If it were my normal self, I wouldn’t have won.”
“Is it the Forest of Demon World?”
“that’s right. “I’ve seen it a few times on the border of land contaminated with mugwort.”
“Has the devil really appeared?” Although the land occupied by Lakhe was quite large, it was not compared to the entire forest.
The view was still obscured by the forest of delusion.
“I don’t know.”
“Where are Deus and the other colleagues? I think I should join them first…
“I don’t even know.”
