EPISODE.85

* * *

In general, the term gorge means a terrain composed of narrow and deep valleys.

However, the Red Canyon had a slightly different structure from that geological definition.

Hundreds of valleys made of rocky mountains were lined up in rows, but there were also wide lands like plains in the middle.

On top of that, the wizards of Endymion sprinkled massive magic without a break.

Kwurreung-!

Lightning fell and a huge firestorm swept across the battlefield.

Roaring-!

The air boiled all at once, and the monsters swept away by the storm evaporated without leaving a single bone fragment.

Hwaaak-!

Right after that, a chill blew from somewhere.

A cold chill was applied to the ground that had begun to melt.

ice and wind.

The two types of mana violently intertwined, causing a phenomenon reminiscent of Blizzard.

The chill that would freeze you to the bone in an instant and the heat that would evaporate all your blood.

The energy of different natures did not stop and smelt from the rear of the monsters.

Kyaaaak Karreuk!

Even if it’s steel, if it’s frozen and thawed repeatedly, it won’t be able to withstand it, let alone the fabric of monsters.

Blah blah blah blah!

Some monsters with hard skins could not withstand the aftermath of the great magic and collapsed.

Even the number of large army magic that fell like that was dozens.

Kurrrrrrrung-!

Huge rocky mountains collapsed without rest from the shockwaves that poured out. The debris continued to pour down, threatening the heads of the monsters.

coo gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg-.

Amidst the rising dust, the bodies of the monsters stretched out under the rubble of rocks.

Kiehek….

Blood and bodily fluids that burst out soaked the area.

Its power was so great that the map of the area had to be rewritten after the battle.

These were powerful spells that, if purposefully poured out, would have wiped out several divisions in the blink of an eye.

However, what is surprising is that the momentum and number of rampaging monsters have not diminished in the slightest.

“O flame spirit!”

“come in! come in! Kak-twi-!”

Russell murmured to himself as he looked at the battlefield where the chaotic situation gradually began to accelerate.

‘Is it impossible to use any more large army magic…’

Because there was a possibility that the fairies would get involved if they used their hands incorrectly.

The commander of the subjugation party may have thought the same. shouted Niccolo Machiavelli.

“stop! Everyone, from this moment on, the use of anti-army magic is prohibited!”

His tone was subtly different from usual, perhaps because of his position as commander.

“Endymion strongmen, prepare for a melee from now on!”

At the same time, a muffled cry full of magical power spread to the ears of the subjugation team members.

“The first goal is to drive out the monsters and protect the fairies—our allies!”

He changed the way he deployed his magical energy and jumped into the middle of the melee.

Half a beat later, his voice boomed.

“Power on!”

.

.

The melee that started afterwards was overwhelming in everything except for the difference in numbers.

It has to be.

It was Endymion who occupied one of the only two great powers on the continent.

Even in such Endymion, it was these people who sent the power that could be counted on their hands.

How can tens of thousands of monsters become opponents?

Flash-!

The moment when a sharp sword skill flashes from the sword of a master-level Aura trainee!

Clap, clap, clap-!

The bodies of three or four monsters caught at the end were cut off in an instant.

Patter-!

Fallen viscera and pieces of flesh soaked the floor.

Cheek-.

Trampling the meat pieces with their shoes, the tower master level mages developed their magic.

The fire that started from the shoe’s feet eats up the surroundings and grows in size, then begins to raise itself using pieces of internal organs as a medium.

Daria Snowwhite.

Originality.

Firewood dwarfs.

Happiness, Happiness, Happiness!

Vermillion and Hubert and Russell.

As soon as the three brothers began to use their magic, the dwarfs who grabbed the spears of flame immediately began to hack the monsters around them.

They moved the fire here and there and burned it in all directions.

Even that wasn’t enough, until several of them got tangled up and took on a gigantic shape.

‘The Giant King of the Transformation Firewood!’

Hahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

‘Shock Bolt-!’

-Pajit!

Chwiyiyiik-!

Russell pierced the forehead of the black orc who was aiming for him with a simple magic.

“What number is-.”

It seemed that it had already been several hours since they began to engage in a melee that was not enough with the pouring out of that amount of magic.

However, the number of monsters doesn’t seem to have decreased at all… Russell

stuck out his tongue, feeling disgusted as well as disgusted at the sight of the monsters that came incessantly like cockroaches.

Where the hell did so many monsters come from? No matter how much you think about it, it makes no sense to consider it a natural occurrence.

Aside from grumbling, Russell’s hands moved nonstop.

It builds up mana with imagery and materializes it in the material world.

fire net and thunder net.

The web of lightning and flames pouring out from each side swept the entire volume.

Hwareuk Pajijijit-!

Confirming that the huge monsters instantly turned into lumps of charcoal and collapsed, he released another magic that Russell had prepared.

Wedge-!

Dozens of fire bolts light up the night sky like fiery arrows, then fall down.

It pierced the foreheads and hearts of the monsters at the point of impact.

Beep! ‘Huh, no

matter how much

Fire Bolt is the magic of that circle…’

‘Not a single miss.’

‘It’s an amazingly sophisticated magic manipulation ability.’

Not only wizards, but also aura practitioners who are relatively unfamiliar with magic can admire.

However, Russell, who showed off such a talent, only frowned, not showing the slightest hint of pride.

‘There will be no end like this.’

At this rate, even if they fought for three days and three nights, there would be no end.

‘So many monsters are flocking to me, but I can’t believe I’ve only been pushed this far.’

Aside from the fact that the leadership of the fairies felt great, I even questioned whether that was possible.

It was then.

“The sun! The sun rises!”

One dwarf wielding a huge ax in each hand shouted in a gruff voice.

At that cry, many fairies raised their heads. I shouted joyfully as I caught a glimpse of the eastern sky that was brightly shining in the distance.

“The sun is rising!”

“Hold on just a little longer!”

“Wind spirit, give us strength!”

Morale dwelled on the faces of the fairies, who were full of exhaustion.

The characters on the Endymion side showed puzzled expressions at the unknown change.

“I don’t know if they like it because it doesn’t matter what the sun rises.”

“Say that. Priests.”

Hubert and Vermilion exchanged words with expressions of incomprehension.

“Monsters aren’t undead, so there’s no way things will change just because the sun rises…”

-Du-du-du-du!

It was then.

Among the monsters that were rushing forward like crazy, several of them changed their direction.

“!?”

Starting with that, many monsters turned their bodies.

They swarmed in the opposite direction from the one they were rushing in and howled.

It was the complete opposite of what had been rushing in like a tide.

“…what the hell is going on here?”

Amelia Merwin murmured with a dazed face at the unbelievable sight.

The same goes for Nicolo, who doesn’t understand the situation.

Leaving them bewildered behind, the battlefield began to stabilize little by little.

* * *

Hwaaak-!

As the bright sunlight fell from beyond the rocky mountain, the monsters that had flocked from all directions, bordering the sun and darkness, disappeared.

Among them, some of the slow-moving ones were easily cleaned up by the union of Endymion and the fairies.

snugly snugly -.

uh uh uh-!

As many spears of flame pierced my carapace, the giant tortoise-shaped monster’s body eventually collapsed with a scream.

widely-.

Russell tilted his head as he jumped from his shell to the ground.

‘Is this strange?’

If it was a monster of the same species, I had faced it even before sunrise.

But for some reason, the strength of the shell seemed to have weakened much more than then.

If the shell I felt at night was a hard rock, now it felt soft like rain-soaked mud.

After finishing off the remaining monsters and going back, I saw Nicolo talking with those who seemed to be representatives of the fairies.

“thank you. Thanks to the help of the heroes of Endymion, we were able to get through this night without much damage.”

The first to speak was a female elf with a bow as gigantic as her body, equipped on her back.

He was remembered for the way he created a huge storm with a single arrow.

His apparent age looked like he was in his late twenties, but considering the lifespan of the elves, he must have been hundreds of years old.

‘To speak as a representative means that you are at least an elder of the elves or a master-class person…’

He was an impressive elf with a slightly lighter hair color than the other elves.

Starting with the elves, the representatives of the dwarves and feathers also stepped forward and added a word.

“We dwarves are small, but we never forget grace. Thank you very much.”

“We, the Feathers, will remember today’s favor until the day all feathers fall out.”

Niccolo waved his hand at the sight of them bowing their heads respectfully toward the group.

“We just did the obvious thing to help the alliance. More than that…” He

turned around with his words blurred. Beyond the land full of corpses of monsters.

I asked as I glanced at the direction they had slipped away like the ebb tide.

“Can I hear a little explanation?”

The others in Endymion also had the same gaze, so they still couldn’t understand the current situation.

.

.

After an hour of brief explanation.

“Somehow, the monsters become more powerful at night and come out again when the sun rises….”

An appearance that is not found in ordinary monsters. .

“yes. We don’t even know why.”

It evolved that way because it was sealed in Tartarus for a long time, but the fairies of the Great Forest couldn’t have known about it.

“hmm. If that’s the case, if we had launched a counterattack targeting the weaker daytime…”

One of the knights looking around murmured, and Russell shook his head.

“It couldn’t have been.”

“…?”

The number of visible fairies was around 5,000. Among them, the number of warriors who can fight is not even half.

“There are so few of them that it would be exhausting just to fend off an attack, and during the day you would have to tend to the wounded and mend the lines.”

“I see…”

The article looked around and nodded. As the saying goes, the number of wounded was not small.

Daytime hours should have been used entirely to treat them.

“It is as you say.”

The elf who acted as the representative confirmed that.

“The reason why the line of deterrence is maintained is because of their aggression toward living things.”

“…Aggression towards living things?”

The elf nodded to Amelia Merwin, who asked in a languid voice.

“yes. Maybe they hate all creatures other than monsters… Rather than spreading to the surrounding area, they are relentlessly attacking the nearby fairies.”

Although all the fairies had formed an alliance, it was an insufficient number to form a line of deterrence against the monsters.

Even in such a situation, that is probably the only reason why the monsters haven’t reached Endymion yet.

It wouldn’t be easy to push them back to the great forest with numbers like this.

“In the end, you have no choice but to hold out until the 5th and 7th corps arrive.”

Nicolo sighed as he said that. At that time, the representative of the elves took a step forward.

He moved towards Russell and pursed his lips.

“By the way… is the human over there Mr. Russell Raymond?”

“Do you know me?”

She smiled brightly at Russell, who tilted his head, and nodded.

“sure. I have heard from Io several times.”

“…?”

“Oh, come to think of it, I’m late in greeting the heroes of Endymion. I am Arain. The head of the White Ash Tree Tribe and one of the Meneurs of the Elves who live in the Great Forest.”

He put his hand on his chest and said.

“Personally, this is Io’s mother.”
