Episode 63
‘How to do it?’
Habei was lost in thought for a moment while holding the sword.
Didn’t Archbishop Killian say that?
There is something important underground, so you shouldn’t touch it.
Of course I thought that was right.
Since the current leader of the knights is away, the only person who can control the knights is himself.
So I tried to be careful.
…Mikhail Walpurgis.
Until that warrior candidate intrudes like this.
‘Damn it.’
I could not have imagined that he would be stuck in a temple for a week and not even move, then suddenly attack the knights.
I didn’t have time to prepare anything.
In the first place, if it was limited to the Gyo Guk, the position of ‘Hero Candidate’ could never be ignored.
Moreover, it is all the more so if the hero candidate has the support of the pope on his back and the family he comes from is also great.
It’s distasteful no matter how you think about it.
To him, Mikhail was still an outsider before the candidacy.
Also a wizard.
From the standpoint of worshiping the gods, wizards are distasteful.
but at the same time.
‘Is there really something?’
A question arose in my mind.
Even he doesn’t know what lies underground.
I’ve been down there, but I’ve never seen anything suspicious there.
But the expression on his face.
He seemed convinced that something was wrong.
if you really have something
“How long are you going to just stand still?”
At that time, Lian, who was holding the sword across from him, asked curtly.
“As I said before, it wasn’t a very serious duel back then.”
“So.”
what do you mean
Shooting roughly like that, Lian aimed his sword.
A showdown a week ago.
“The position of vice-captain of the Holy Knights is not that light. It’s not that I haven’t heard of Confucius Lian’s reputation… …”
Keying.
A pure white aura tightly wrapped around the sword, dispersing momentum.
“The skill of Confucius is still incomparable to me.”
“under.”
At that, Ryan laughed.
What on earth is so great that you are so confident?
Actually, the vice-captain of the Holy Knights.
Even if not a master, he is close to him.
Looking at it objectively… ….
‘Yeah, I’m sure he thinks he’s no match for me.’
Just looking at the momentum flowing from him right now, it’s not unusual.
Clearly, the clash in the temple was not his sincerity.
I know that much.
Perhaps in the past, the gap might have been acknowledged and accepted.
Because the locations and environments they have already built up are different.
one.
“Then why don’t you prove it?”
He’s seen too many of them lately to the point where the idea seems ridiculous.
It’s not that I don’t admit that my opponent is strong.
It’s just that the upper limit of the world he sees has risen significantly.
furthermore.
‘Compared to him, I’m weak.’
genius? Even if the field is different, a madman named Mikhail is already rampaging next to him.
skillful?
The unidentified swordsman he met using Mikhail’s magic.
Compared to him, that Harbei belonged to an axis that could be dealt with.
Unlike Mikhail, who felt that he was no match for him in terms of talent or ability, or the swordsman, who was a thorough learner.
then.
‘I’ll try it.’
Before arriving here, the performance of the magic tool Mikhail handed over was beyond imagination.
‘As expected, my body became lighter.’
amazingly.
Just by holding it, his physical abilities improved and he was able to move his aura more efficiently.
Each one fits so well, as if it were made just for you.
It must have been a magic tool that could be made because he had mastered the Mulière training method.
Ryan moved first.
1 Unlike when we faced each other in the temple, he decided to move more aggressively.
He kicked off the ground and quickly closed the distance with Harvey.
Caang!
However, Habei did not blink an eye and lightly struck Lian’s sword.
A face without any emotion.
He looked at Lian with an expression that said, “This is it.”
Lian’s smile didn’t break down at all, even though one attack went back to nothing and he retreated once.
‘Is it like this?’
It doesn’t matter whether or not Harvey received a valid hit.
A feeling from just before.
Recently, seeing only strong enemies, my self-esteem was getting lower.
With the simple workshop from before, Lian was certain of one thing.
‘That guy was a monster, not that I was particularly ugly.’
It was a simple realization.
It was the most important moment for Lian now.
Ryan moved right away.
But this time it was different.
2nd case.
Kaaang!
Harvey’s eyes, which he thought would be the same as the first one, shook.
Blocking the previous blow, I was pushed back by about half a step.
The problem is that it didn’t end there.
‘…what?’
He couldn’t understand it, but he knew he couldn’t sit still any longer.
But the more the attack continues.
Caang!
the Harvey.
Kaaang!
I couldn’t help but be flustered.
The moment the swords met, I felt the speed increase.
Acceleration.
And at the same time, the pressure applied was also stronger.
what should i say about this rather than simple swordsmanship.
‘…Magic?’
Yes, it’s like strengthening magic.
Lian himself didn’t seem to be aware of it, but apparently the method of using the aura itself was different from the general case.
Perhaps they exchanged dozens of sword strikes before they knew it.
‘This is dangerous.’
I should have thought that there was something unusual about Mikhail accompanying me.
A pure white aura that is the hallmark of a paladin.
Divine power quickly restores his body and allows him to withstand even movements beyond the limit.
Kaaang!
With strong wind pressure, the two swords collided once more.
This time, both sides were pushed back with a gong sound between the two.
However, the loss is greater on Harvey’s side. In the first place, he was pushed back even though he should not have been pushed back.
No matter how promising he is, he, the vice-captain of the Order of the Holy Knights, will be pushed aside by a newcomer who just came out of the world?
‘What is this… …!’
I decided to erase my thoughts.
The important thing is to clearly show the gap here. At this rate, the Holy Knights couldn’t even save face.
The moment when I grinded my teeth and gathered my energy once again.
cooong!
“…?!”
Suddenly the ground rumbled.
Harvey as well as Lian stopped the swords they were aiming at each other.
So did the other knights who watched it.
and….
Quaang!
something fell from the sky
As the thick dust cleared, it slowly revealed itself.
“…Mikhail?”
Mikhail, who should have gone down with Siegfried, walked out.
For some reason, with a displeased expression.
“Ah, they were all gathered together.”
Mikhail said that while looking at the Holy Knights gathered together.
“Paradise Knights, take note. I have something I want to tell you.”
“Wait, candidate, what is this…”
“A warrior is the owner of the Order of Holy Knights and the leader with legitimate rights. You know that?”
“From why…”
Oh, okay.
Mikhail cut Havey off and spoke one-sidedly.
“I have something to tell you by the authority of that warrior.”
All eyes of the knights were focused on Mikhail, as if they felt something unusual.
Not even the slightest sound was heard.
Mikhail said in silence.
“Starting today, we will suspend all operations of the Order of the Holy Knights.”
“…?!”
The paladins’ eyes widened.
They glared at Mikhail with expressions of disapproval.
I know you’re a candidate for a hero.
But no matter how much you do, you take advantage of the spot and give these instructions on your own!
“Unacceptable! To stop work so suddenly for no reason!”
“I have a reason, damn it.”
said Mikhail, with a clear tendon growing on his forehead.
“There’s some devil kid making a nest down here.”
“…!”
“Did you understand?”
As if he didn’t even feel the reason to be polite anymore, Mikhail said with a thump at the staff.
“Nobody can get out of here until they catch one.”
* * *
No matter how much he thought about it as he climbed, Chimi couldn’t control his anger.
However, emotional behavior does nothing to solve the situation.
It was something I had been diligently telling myself from the beginning.
Even if the chest is actually hot.
head is cold.
Because I thought that was normal.
one.
‘Fuck.’
Is it necessary to cool the head unconditionally?
no it’s not that
Every once in a while, a little rash is needed to solve a shitty situation.
yes like now
As soon as I climbed up, I nervously lowered the staff to the floor.
cooong!
The energy of the World Tree swept through the surroundings with a strong vibration.
The paladins who were watching me flinched in unison.
[It’s not easy to know here right now. Because the devil’s mimicry is very subtle and secretive.]
I know.
But I felt it.
One of these is a demon.
Then one of the knights asked.
“I understand! However, the candidate is not a complete warrior yet! This is different from an act of exceeding authority… …“
Ah, I didn’t say anything, but Sir Siegfried agreed.”
“…!”
“What if there are only two candidates and both agree? Yes, the warrior just asked me to peel it, so I can feel free to peel it.”
At my words, the knight sneakily looked at Siegfried, who was lowering his head behind me, and said,
“Sir Siegfried, really!”
“…Yes really.”
What he saw underground must have been quite shocking, so he replied and remained silent.
“This can’t be…”
The article who asked the question distorted his face with a desperate expression…What I don’t know
The important thing is this first.
It is concluded that they have been mimicking for quite a long time if they spread such ominous things in the basement.
How to catch a demon?
It’s not difficult.
“now. Everyone, look here first. Can you see the staff? Let’s focus our attention on this staff.”
Anyway, even if there is a mimicking demon among them, there is no way he will be able to find it right away since he is not even aware of it.
Because of that.
thud!
‘Instinct’ that happens while you are not even aware of it.
Let’s attack that instinct.
The World Tree and Hekau’s power.
and a storm on set.
Three ancient divine powers that were said to have shattered demons a long time ago are attached to me.
then.
“< Sanctuary Proclamation >.”
Sanctuary Proclamation.
With so many ingredients gathered, it would be funny if one could not declare a sanctuary in this area.
It’s not that great.
It’s not a very organized sanctuary, so it doesn’t have tremendous aggression or power… ….
what was wronged.
Enough to find the devil.
and that moment.
“Coke.”
There was a coughing sound.
My eyes flashed.
“Who are you?”
The moment everyone held their breath, they turned around and asked again.
“Who the hell is coughing now?”
nothing to think about
The coughing person is the culprit.
Great mage who transcends by regression
