Episode 421: A silver-haired mercenary suddenly intervenes.
I was planning to burn whoever was in the way, but this time I couldn’t move quickly.
The emperor frowned and looked closely at the man in front of him. An eye that can see the soul like Logan recognizes the other person’s status.
Soon his eyes widened as if he couldn’t believe it.
“Auror… Master? Again!?”
Harman acted calm while looking at the emperor’s violently shaking eyes.
‘We’ll find out.’
An emperor who can read the status of souls will surely recognize his true skills. Even though he was confronting a holy object, or rather a cursed monster, Licentia, on the outside it would seem that he was radiating energy just fine.
And the trick seemed to have worked.
The emperor’s gaze turned to where he had come from.
Harmon tried to suppress his growing nervousness. The Emperor must have recognized that he was a superhuman who was fighting Galen.
And now, there, the imperial mages, including Galen Decade, and the queen of McLane were engaged in a fierce battle.
The queen, wearing Auror armor resembling a blazing flame, took control of the situation even in such a situation.
The red auror’s pulsing armor grinds all the magic it hits like a grinder.
– Are they all monsters? How can you grow again?
Just as Galen shouted, the mages were busy being dragged around with frustrated expressions.
The emperor regained his composure at that sight.
This silver-haired knight even handed over the magician of the cold wind to that queen and came here. In other words, it was proof that he was unable to deal with the Mage of the Cold Wind.
After regaining his composure, the emperor soon noticed his shortcomings.
A soul that is subtle but not yet complete.
“…Not yet. It’s not perfect. But…hehe, this is also absurd.”
The black eyes that looked up and down at Harman soon gave out the correct answer.
“Sacred power… At that age, with that skill, and with that level of divine power, is it a divine sword? It’s a very different face from what I’ve heard. How can the sword of the Holy Kingdom be here?”
Harman responded with a grin in response to the clear criticism in his words.
“For convenience, I put on a disguise. And we and the Empire aren’t on very good terms, are we?”
“So you’re going to stop me?”
“King Logan is a man who should not die here.”
At that resolute answer, the emperor’s black eyes stared intently at the divine sword.
Even though his silver hair and silver eyes, disguised by the surging blue magic power, naturally returned to their original color, the tip of the sword he pointed at the emperor did not waver at all.
What broke the brief standoff was a scream coming from nearby.
– Argh!
No matter how much I concentrated on the confrontation in the middle of the battlefield, I could not ignore this scream. Because it was the sound that signified the death of Celine Bauer, the lord of the Earthquake Magic Tower.
And the one who created that death.
Eilen, whose left arm looked like it was broken and tattered, let out a scream-like yell.
-Logan!!
Only then did she realize the danger her companion was in and went out of her way to kill one of the mages.
Even though the injury was quite serious, Eilen’s movements were becoming more intense. As if sparks were shooting out of those blue eyes.
– Wait!!
In an intense one-on-one battle, the odds of victory suddenly turned to Il.
And when the emperor saw that scene, a laugh that did not suit the situation burst out of his mouth.
“Puh-uh-huh, such a shitty thing….”
That female knight’s soul level is at the level of an upper-level Auror user.
An auror that vibrates like a burst of flame and destroys all approaching magic is probably a trait specialized for defense. And if you have awakened a trait like that, there is a high probability that your physical abilities will fall below the average of an Auror user.
But anyway, as he is an auror user, he is faster and stronger than a mage. An auror user who seemed like the magician’s perfect nemesis had appeared.
Moreover, her true identity is the queen of an enemy country?
“Hehehehe.”
The emperor continued to laugh in a situation that was difficult to believe even after seeing it with his own eyes. The fact that he appeared to be around the same age as Logan McLane only incited his tantrums even further.
As if that wasn’t enough, the person standing in his way, who was seriously injured, was the sword of the Holy Kingdom, half-stepped to the level of an Aura Master, and the surroundings were full of dying imperial soldiers.
– Argh!
– Wow!
– Run…
And the decisive blow that created this situation was the great magic that he created using all of the imperial treasures.
‘How could things get so twisted?’
The laughter that started out in frustration soon gave way to a roar of anger.
“Hahahahahahaha!”
Harmon stared at him with cold eyes as he laughed like crazy.
The emperor, who received that cold gaze, gritted his teeth and levitated himself in the air.
The emperor of an empire is not in a position to rashly gamble with one’s life.
“Galen! Retreat!”
– Wow!
It seemed as if Galen’s voice, swallowing a sigh of relief, could be heard up to here.
However, soon the three magicians began to leave the battlefield, and the female knight who was supposed to chase them rushed towards the emperor, and even towards her husband beyond them, at a gale-like speed.
The Emperor, who was looking down at the whole scene with cold eyes, immediately raised his right hand and made a blue flame bloom.
“Don’t think this is the end, Shingeom.”
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
With a wave of the hand, a wave of blue flame was shot towards the new sword and Logan.
At the same time, the emperor flew through the air as fast as lightning and began retreating to his main camp.
He didn’t think that attack could do anything to them. They just wanted to buy time for a retreat.
but.
“Hwaaaap!”
“no!!”
Wow!
The emperor did not know that the divine sword was seriously injured in the check attack and that even the female knight wearing red aura like armor vomited blood.
– Retreat!
As soon as the emperor’s order was given, the imperial army rushed toward the main camp. At that time, everyone was proactive, not like an army whose morale had collapsed.
And of course, that scene brought cheers from the other party.
“The Imperial Army is retreating!”
“We won!”
“We won again!”
“Wow!”
A shout that seemed to make the entire Kyle Castle leave echoed for a long time throughout the ruined battlefield.
* * * At the moment when cries of victory rang out from Kyle Castle, the southern fortress Armor.
– Awwwwwwwww.
With the howl of a wolf overwhelming the battlefield, a three-headed monster over 20 meters tall appeared right in front of the imperial troops.
The moment when 12 red eyes shine on the monster’s head, which is full of torn wounds all over its body.
The dark red ray that shot out from its mouth hit the rear of the imperial army directly.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A disastrous attack that struck over a thousand wizards who were casting the Wind Wall.
Due to the impact, the Great Magic was completely destroyed, and about 100 wizards collapsed on the spot, vomiting blood.
– Kwaaaaaa!
Although no one on the battlefield could understand, Tyr’s roar contained extreme anger. If Logan were here, he probably would have recognized the meaning in that voice.
– A ‘friend’ got hurt because of me.
While he was hesitating, his friend, who had blocked the explosion of the black guys with his whole body, collapsed.
– Do not reveal your true body unless it is unavoidable.
Tyr, who had forgotten his promise to Logan due to his rising anger, swung his overwhelming power towards the approaching imperial troops. It may be okay for a strong few, but the size of the body will be a sure weapon against the weak majority.
The war had to end quickly.
– And you have to treat your friend.
Kwaaaaang!
“Aaaah!”
“It’s a monster!”
With one front step, dozens of people became blood clots and ten times more flew through the air.
thud. Quaaaang!
Ugh. Ugh.
The giant monster’s convulsive struggle was like a disaster that the soldiers could not handle.
The knights who seemed to be able to handle the monster were the only ones who could handle it.
“Stop it!”
“We’re coming!”
Jiiiiiiing.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa.
The moment it was directly hit by the dark red rays shooting out intermittently from the three heads, it melted like salt in water.
And again, the rain of quarrels and red bombs fell between the devastated formations and began to produce a large number of casualties.
“Aaaah!”
“Corps commanders, corps commanders!”
When the front line of the imperial army was helplessly collapsing.
The superhumans who were supposed to lead them and catch the monster were being pushed back one-sidedly by the red-haired young man’s crazy attack.
“This is absurd…”
“This is crazy…”
“The guy who was all dying…”
Runners and Fabian, the superhumans of the Imperial Guard, and Graeme, the 7th Legion commander, had no choice but to focus on defense with tired expressions on their faces. . The guy who looked like he was going to collapse at any moment suddenly rose to the level and started pushing himself.
“Does this make sense!?”
Seven Aura Swords coming from all directions.
visor! visor!
Skag.
Quaaaang!
Even after the three of them blocked two of them, the remaining Geomse dug into the narrow gap and continued to push them back.
The bombing-like offensive was an offensive, but the sight of them constantly muttering the same words and blinking red eyes as if they were half out of their minds made them even more fearful.
“It’s because of me. I told you to go. Don’t die, Viktor. Don’t ever die…”
Those words are words whose meaning I don’t know.
None of the three knew that those words were referring to the tattered corpse lying behind him.
“You crazy guy…!”
It can’t just be pushed back like this.
Lunars and Fabian, who had been working together for a long time, conveyed their intentions with only their eyes and looked for gaps in the counterattack.
“Graeme!”
“Hold on just a moment!”
“What what!?”
Whether 7th Corps Commander Graeme Turner was shocked or not, they fell back for a moment and gathered all their strength to prepare their own secret strategy.
but.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
“Aaaahhh!”
Graeme, who suddenly became a meat shield, did not meet their expectations. The endless waves of orange aura literally crushed him.
Fatal calculation mistake.
Soon, an Auror user engulfed in madness came running like crazy, as if laughing at the panicked people.
As if that wish had come true, the corpse that had been lying down as if dead let out a long breath and shook slightly.
“I’m not… dead, you crazy… bastard. Hmm…”
The corpse(?), whose tattered body was slowly regenerating itself, was barely able to sit up.
Shouts of victory erupted from the southern fortress.
– Awwwwww!
* * * Around the same time, North Fortress Shield.
“You damn old man!!”
“monster…!”
Chaferville, the commander of the Imperial Guard, and Drexler, commander of the 4th Corps, were fed up and kept retreating.
visor!
visor!
Skag.
“Ugh!”
“Fucking hell!”
What was driving them was a monster with countless pieces of metal like armor fragments stuck all over its body.
Every time the monster flashed a red aura, blood dripped along the metal pieces embedded in his body. The monster, who was hard to find without any wounds from forehead to toe, seemed literally covered in blood.
Even with that body, the power and will to push them was just scary.
“The kingdom… For…”
There was already no light in the eyes of the monster swordsman who was constantly repeating those words. It was almost a question of how he was alive and how he was fighting, but this was clearly reality.
And the endless fighting spirit that the leader of the corps showed. Infinitely raised the morale of the McLane army stationed at the fortress.
On the other hand, the Imperial army, which lost its commander Miles Malfin along with the suicide bombing of the Black Knights, began to gradually fall back.
‘What if the supreme commander blows himself up?’
Chaperville gritted his teeth in frustration and anger, but it was already too late.
The revenge born of Miles Malpin’s camaraderie, and the worst consequences of the brute-force-oriented personnel policy that overlooked it, were happening here in SHIELD.
And around that time.
Wow. Ah!
“Puhahahaha. Goodbye, Yapsap!”
On the other side of the castle wall, a huge monster succeeded in breaking off the bad relationship with Blake Evendoor, the commander of the 3rd Corps.
With that, the flow of the battlefield began to completely tilt to one side. .
