EPISODE.105
Death Knight.
As mentioned earlier, it was a by-product created in the process of creating undead comparable to superhumans.
As much as death is included in the individual name, it boasts of strength that is different from the lower level undead.
There were also occasional instances in which some objects created using a body with excellent potential evolved into a Doom Knight, the higher level, if sufficient morale was supplied.
Of course, it would have taken tens of thousands of deaths to achieve him.
Anyway, the story that Death Knight is also a monster that can never be ignored.
but-.
“Kyahahahaha!”
The by-products that are born in the process of creating monsters comparable to superhumans are literally just by-products.
It was never a stronger being than a superman that could be compared to a superman.
Bang-!
In Muyaho’s single stroke, a death knight flew long and dug deep into the furrow.
Crooked breastplate and much weaker eyesight compared to when they first appeared.
Bang!
Glaring at him, Muyaho clashed his fists.
Perhaps because of the tenacious vitality unique to the undead, the sight of him enduring three or four punches made him roar with eyes as if he had found a toy he liked.
“As expected, he was a guy who had a taste for hitting!”
As soon as the words are finished, Muyaho’s thighs swell and her new body shoots like a cannonball.
────────────!!
Sonic Boom.
Before the sound could be heard, before the air exploded, Muyaho’s drop kick hit the chest of the guy who had collapsed and was rolling on the floor.
Kwagwagwagwa!
The shock wave that followed blew down the outer walls of several nearby buildings, digging deep into the ground and creating pits.
To stop her, another Death Knight wielded a fraudulent sword, but it was useless.
widely-.
“Kick.”
Grab a knife with your hand.
In the East, she casually showed off a skill called “empty-hand-import-white-person”, using only the power of her fingers—.
“…?!”
——I raised the Death Knight with its entire blade.
The moment the panicked Death Knight tried to say something, a quick bang!
Muyaho’s violent force drove him to the floor, and an explosion erupted.
If it wasn’t for the Death Knight, the blow alone would have made all the bones in his body shatter and stretch.
“Kyahaha!”
Muyaho smiled broadly, as if he liked toys that don’t break easily.
He spewed a series of blows like a storm toward the ground.
Thu-kwang tok-kwa-!
Two Death Knights were stacked under his feet.
Rather than a battle, it was a one-sided, truly overwhelming violence.
Every time a blow was struck, a thick layer of sand and dust rose along with a thunderclap.
Only after several more earth-shaking roars did Muyaho shake off his hands as if feeling refreshed.
“Whoa. It was a lot of fun for the first time in a while.”
He then lightly wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and turned to see Russell.
“So what happened to that side? cock?”
“It ended a while ago.”
With the horse, Russell kicked one of the things rolling on the floor with his toe.
Tang Degur-.
A small metallic sound resounds, and the thing that left Russell’s feet flows into the hole and falls under Muyaho’s feet.
It was a helmet that must have replaced the Death Knight’s head at one time.
The ghastly beams of light from the inside of the visor have long since disappeared.
“Hoo.”
Leaving her behind as she kicked it like a ball, Russell caught a glimpse of the crushed Death Knights under Muyaho.
The black armor he was wearing was so ugly that it should be called scrap metal, and the bones were also broken, and some of them were smashed into powder units.
At that level, even a Death Knight would not be able to survive.
Unlike himself who magically attacked the undead’s unique weakness, he destroyed it using only one overwhelming physical force.
‘Every time I sparred with that punch, I was getting hit…’
Russell, feeling the back of his neck getting stiff, rubbed his neck and shoulders once and explained to Muyaho, who was still playing ball with the pitch.
“They are the true body of the magic circle. Now that they’ve been destroyed, the magic circles here won’t be able to function properly anymore.”
“Are these guys real?”
“yes. It’s probably that the villagers in the Baron’s territory or the residents of the previous village became undead…”
Russell paused with a stiff expression and sighed.
If I was going to explain it anyway, it was something I had to say in the end.
“…It must have been to supply morale to these three guys.”
Of course, it was difficult to see that these Death Knights would evolve into Doom Knights with this level of fraud.
However, even if it is not, it was clear that it would turn into a stronger Death Knight than this.
“Aren’t those bastards completely crazy? cock!?”
The pitch that Muyaho was rolling was blown away! He kicked it and spat it out as if he was tired.
“If you want to become strong, you just have to train and if you want to make something strong, you just have to work hard. You killed so many people for that purpose?”
No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t understand the situation.
“I mean.”
Russell shook his head as if agreeing with her words.
“Anyway, the fact that even the Baronies ended up like this means that someone from the upper echelons of the Empire teamed up with the cultists. I will have to report this as soon as I get back.”
“Mum. report. yes. have to report cock. By the way…”
Muyaho looked up at the sky with a clouded tail.
“Is it my own illusion that I can feel someone’s gaze over there from earlier?”
“A look?”
“Oh what. It’s not accurate. I felt it for a moment and then it seemed to disappear. It could have been my mistake.”
“It must be an illusion. Is there anyone in the world who can fool Muyaho’s senses?”
Because she was one of the strongest among superhumans.
At Russell’s words, Muyaho laughed with a shy expression.
He said, blushing.
“Hmmm. male male. If you say that, it makes me feel good, but if it’s about your teacher…”
She lived in Endymion for the past half year and met many strong people representing the country.
But none of them gave me a shock as intense as the first time I saw a woman named Daria.
It was clear that she was the strongest among those Muyaho had seen.
So I muttered in a small voice.
“Maybe I can fool my senses. Hmmmm…”
.
.
high in the sky.
Looking down at the two men and women from a place mostly hidden by thick clouds, the black-haired man raised the corner of his mouth.
“You are a woman with good feelings.”
Immediately after, he moved his gaze to Russell again…
“I’m stronger than before, but it’s still not enough.”
Then, he flew through the sky chasing after the two people who started to urge their way again.
slowly very slowly
But sure.

Fortnight since then.
Unlike the grand opening ceremony held just three days after entering the empire, the journey of the past fifteen days was truly peaceful.
As if they had no idea that something so terrible was happening somewhere in the empire, the small villages and territories they encountered were at peace.
‘I guess so.’
Even if you’re a cultist with a high-ranking figure in the empire behind you, if you do something like me throughout the empire, you’ll be exposed soon.
After such a peaceful journey, Muyaho asked while climbing the rough slope.
“So, somewhere on this mountain is the place you are looking for, male?”
Unlike the unstoppable steps, it is a rough and dangerous road.
“yes.”
When I turned my head, I saw a thick mist spreading down the cliff of the ceiling.
The sight of endless cloud after cloud must have been called a sea of clouds.
Jeobeok jebuk bruise bruise-.
The sound of footsteps and leather shoes echoed regularly.
The mountain trail that Russell and Muyaho were climbing was a single road along one of the many peaks of Giallo Mountain.
Giallo Mountain.
In the empire… no, even in the entire continent, the scenery was one of the five most beautiful mountains.
Just like that.
Seventy or so rocky peaks soaring tall and piercing the sky.
The sea of clouds that spreads throughout the day is enough to overwhelm even Russell.
‘It’s the first time I’ve actually seen it, but it’s the same as I saw in the book…’
If it weren’t for the rugged mountains and rugged terrain, this place would probably have always been full of tourists. ‘In fact, at the entrance of the mountain
,
there were also a few villages for tourists who came to see the sansera…’
Russell raised his head as he finished his miscellaneous thoughts there.
The peak he and Muyaho were climbing now was the sixty-seventh of the more than seventy peaks of Gialo Mountain.
A peak located in the center of the mountain, almost untouched by the outside world.
‘Here…something related to dragons…’
Right at that moment.
Fire-.
As if in response to something, the map in Russell’s hand turns into ashes and scatters.
What appeared with him on Russell’s palm was a small compass with a green halo.
“Anyway…”
Russell raised the corners of his mouth as he checked the arrow pointing straight in one direction.
“Looks like we’re almost there.”
* * *
That time.
There was one thing that was awakened by Russell’s presence.
[Help. Are you finally here? Little master.]
A long sleep in which almost all life activities were suspended to maintain a short lifespan.
As I woke up from that slumber, the huge being slowly moved my pupils.
Along with that, instead of eye mucus, several pieces of crystal that emit beautiful light fall from the corner of the eye and crumble.
[Besides, a child with dragon blood. I don’t know if it’s his bride, but he brought a perfect girl along with him.]
As if reminiscent of an old grandmother, he looked quite old, but spoke kindly and warmly.
[Holholholol.]
Even his eyes gently drew an arc and stared at the sign of him approaching him for a while.
Suddenly, the giant being’s eyes soared fiercely.
[go away. This guy!]
Together with him, he shot a massive thought wave toward the sky.
[This is a sacred place prepared for the little owner! It’s not a space you dare step into!]
─────────────!!!!
.
.
─────────────!!!!
“Kuk!”
The black-haired man, who was pushed to the other side of the sky by the thought waves that flew in from nowhere, gritted his teeth.
“This damn old lady…!!”
Hard-.
“It’s me…”
As I clenched my fist, sharp nails dug into my grip.
In an instant, black blood oozes out along the fingernails.
-!
A man whose eyes widened as if this pain was nothing.
“…I didn’t end up like this because I wanted to…!”
The words he spat out cursedly were slowly dissipating into the sky.
