Episode 470
“…What a terrible thing this is! How dare you!!”
The cry of an old man so small that it does not even reach the chest height of a strong young man.
However, at that cry, the movements of the Holy Knights who were organizing the magic swordsman stopped for an instant. The strange magical power in that voice had interfered with their minds.
But soon.
“He is the leader of the Black Snake! Kill him!”
The Holy Knights came to their senses at Stephen Royer’s shout and began charging at the old man all at once.
Although sacrifices were made while dealing with the black magic swordsmen, there were still well over 100 paladins.
The level of each of them is at least intermediate force user, so even if the enemy is a great mage, there is no reason why they cannot win if the three Auror user vice-captains join in.
Luisa, who was watching, also thought so.
however.
“This is our sacred place!!”
As the old man stamped his feet with a voice filled with anger, the light from the magic circle spread across the square became even more intense and enveloped the approaching paladins.
“This is not a place where servants of immoral gods can set themselves up!”
thud.
Soon, the movements of the Paladins slowed down drastically.
Even though they moved slowly, as if they were deliberately playing a prank, the facial expressions of most of the paladins did not change one bit. As if he couldn’t sense something wrong with himself.
Luisa’s eyes widened in shock at the incredible sight.
‘…Time!!? No no. It slowed down the speed of thinking.’
Of course, even that was nonsense.
No matter how great a mage he was, he could not ignore compatibility and perform magic like this. Although the holy power of the Holy Knights was not as perfect as that of King Logan, it was clearly superior to the magical power of the Kassel Tower.
Nevertheless, Luisa was able to realize why this was possible the moment she saw the tower owner.
‘The magic circle and the holy relics of Zivrik Kassel.’
First of all, the magic circle laid out in the square conveyed tremendous power, and the bracelet on the tower owner’s left wrist and the silver crown on his head were controlling and amplifying that power.
“Submit heavenly punishment, you ruthless bastards!”
The tower’s entire body was filled with such overwhelming power that his arrogant voice could never be heard as bravado.
“I will use it as an offering to Him!”
Kwazizyk.
The moment when the old man’s small hand grasps the air.
The bodies of the paladins, including the vice-captains, levitated in the air for an instant.
“Aaaah!”
“My shit.”
“How could this be…”
The paladins, who had escaped the control of their consciousness, screamed in horror.
And that’s when Luisa moved.
A technique that Johnny Van was forced to use. And the performance that Topju is showing now.
That contrasting scene inspired her to turn the situation around.
Although I don’t know the exact technique.
‘you can do it.’
Luisa used her brilliant wit to move some of the power of the magic circle on the floor.
thud.
Although it was only a very small force compared to the total, it was enough to break the flow.
“Luisa!!? What are you doing!”
The moment when the first thing that happened was the head of the tower, and the shout was directed at her.
The bodies of the Paladins that were floating in the air escaped their restraints and fell to the ground.
thud.
Kukukuk.
“Ugh!”
“No bastard!”
“catch!”
The Holy Knights who fell to the ground began to attack the tower owner again.
“It’s time!”
“Kill him!”
They are closing the distance like lightning, with Stephen Astro Anthony at the center.
“under!!”
The tower owner glared at Luisa with bloody eyes, and then gray fog spewed out from his entire body.
“A servant of immoral people and a traitor…”
The moment he uttered meaningful words to himself.
– It is the perfect offering to offer to Him.
A muscular demon who seemed to be over 5 meters tall appeared from the gray fog accompanied by a bizarre voice.
Dark murderous energy emanated from two pairs of sharply torn red eyes.
The two horns that grew from the forehead and curved gently toward the back of the head were as sharp as spears, and the red-hot skin boasting bursting muscles seemed difficult to even scratch with most weapons.
The black nails on its two gigantic hands were as sharp as well-forged daggers, and the crown that seemed to have grown to fit its swollen size and the silver bracelet on its left wrist even looked grotesque at first glance.
And the representatives of the Holy Knights rushed towards that monster.
“Receive heavenly punishment, you devil!”
“By God!”
“It’s a divine punishment!”
Then a strange voice rang out again.
– Shut up! This is truly heavenly punishment!
thud.
As the tower owner, transformed into the form of a devil, took a step towards the approaching paladins, dark red magical power rose from his body like a flame.
Kwaaaaang!
“Oops!”
“Sigh!”
“Ugh!”
The three superhumans of the Holy Knights were thrown in all directions by the tower owner’s swung fist.
There was no grand plan.
It’s just that the dark red magic power that spread along with that punch swept away the entire area.
The tower owner, who showed off his power with a single blow, glared at Luisa instead of the fallen paladins.
– Yes, you broke the hint. But did you know that disrupting the flow would do anything?
Luisa answered her old teacher’s question by pouring out gray magic power.
“Tie them up!”
When he opened the door to the dimension by adding the power he had absorbed from the magic circle and his own magic, a vine of the demonic realm larger than ever stretched out and began to entangle the devil’s entire body.
but.
– I dared to use the magic I learned….
The moment when black flames erupted along with the tower owner’s mocking voice.
The gray vines were quickly engulfed in flames and destroyed.
So much so that her pride in being the most powerful since she learned summoning magic was in vain.
‘…It’s on a different level.’
Luisa bit her lip.
I was using some of the power of the magic circle, but that was just an expedient method.
In a way, it was a natural result since the owner of the tower was using almost 90% of his power.
– I won’t kill you because I have a special use for you.
Ugh.
Soon, along with a voice containing a strange sound, my vision turned pitch black and all strength drained from my body.
At the same time, the transformation of the 6th-circle magic demon incarnation was lifted, and I felt as if I was floating alone in a pitch-black space.
The feeling of falling into an abyss without even being able to move a limb came over my whole body, and for an instant, my mind went blank.
In that way, countless hours passed by.
A moment when you gradually forget who you are and where you are.
As she unconsciously struggled, something touched her toes.
“eww…?”
When I opened my eyes with difficulty, a bright space opened up and at the same time I heard the sound of birds.
‘this…?’
She wakes up in shock.
“Luisa, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?”
The person I had longed for my whole life was standing in front of me, smiling.
“You look surprised. Come here.”
A hand that hugs you warmly and pats your back.
The body temperature and warm voice were too vivid to be a dream.
“mom?”
“Yes, Mom. It’s okay. It’s all a dream. It’s okay.”
…It was a dream.
“Did you have a scary dream?”
“…huh.”
“What dream?”
Luisa’s eyes became moist as she looked at that sweet smile.
“…Mom died. And Dad and I…”
“You must be surprised. It’s okay, Mom is here.”
“Mom…”
“Huh?”
“…I missed you a lot.”
“Me too, my daughter. Even if I look at you like this, I miss you.”
That soft laugh was so warm that I felt like crying.
This is the whole situation now.
“…I wish it were real.”
“what?”
As a single tear rolled down her cheek, gray magic surged from young Luisa’s whole body.
Soon the warm scene suddenly shattered and Luisa’s body was revealed, sitting on the floor of the square and bleeding from the corner of her mouth.
“Dark Heaven Barrier was my specialty, top owner!”
– …You’re being annoying.
The tower owner, who had blown away the two attacking Holy Knights with one fist, returned to his senses and turned his attention to her.
“I will block the tower’s magic! Fight!”
Luisa screamed at the confused paladins and raised her magic power again.
– Do you think it’s possible?
With the shout of the tower owner, the black fog spread again and enveloped the paladins.
but.
“Dispell!”
Ugh. That’s it.
Even though she felt the circle in her heart breaking, Luisa paid no heed and drew in a lot of the power of the magic circle, coughing up blood and dispersing the fog.
“hurry!”
And the Holy Knights responded to that earnest cry.
‘Damn it.’
Stefan Royer gritted his teeth as he saw Ethan openly transformed into the devil’s form.
I was angry.
The power of the enemy that can never be overcome.
This situation is impossible to resist without the help of another heresy.
‘If only Harman had been there…’
And the sight of himself thinking of someone who wasn’t there made him unbearably angry.
A former leader, a former apostate, and now a saint who sacrificed herself to resurrect the saint and pope.
If he had been there, wouldn’t he have been able to cut off that devil’s head in one fell swoop?
At the same time, I have this thought.
‘Why didn’t he make an excuse then?’
I became ashamed of my past of actively trying to tolerate him.
So this time, he will fill that void even if it means risking his life.
“By God!”
Stefan once again wrote ‘Blessing of Light’ even as he felt his lifespan decreasing. And he shouted excitedly as he cut down the barrage of demons pouring at his other colleagues with his divine aura.
“I’ve got you covered! Open the way for Astro! Finish that guy Anthony!”
“yes!”
This time, the Holy Aura surged beyond its limit, as if it were going to suffocate the devil, and began to cut into pieces the pouring dark red flames.
‘Ugh.’
I felt my vitality being chipped away, but I couldn’t back down. Since the skill gap between the enemy and allies was so great, someone had to make a sacrifice.
And that determination seemed to be more effective than expected.
“Hurry!”
Ethan, who returned to God’s side, interrupted the devil’s magic and dragged out time.
Stefan, along with the Holy Knights, removed the dark red magic shield.
Astro, who was holding a kite shield, was seen collapsing after one punch from the devil, but he also did not back down until the end.
And Anthony, taking advantage of that opportunity, raised his spear and jumped in, aiming at the enemy’s heart.
‘done!’
But at that moment.
– Your struggling is cute.
bang!
With a sarcastic voice, Anthony’s great spear, called the sacred spear, was unable to pierce the guy’s vital area and bounced off.
Wow!
“no!!!”
The sight of Anthony’s upper body being torn open by the devil’s fist was pierced into Stephen’s eyes.
Couuuuuung.
The devil’s foot rose up at some point and trampled Astro, who had not yet been able to stand up, like a bug, and the repentant heretic who was interfering with the bastard’s magic fell to the ground, coughing up blood.
– Burn, you servants of the immoral.
And at the devil’s next word, Stefan felt a burning pain throughout his body.
Even as he writhed in pain, Stephen sensed the outcome.
‘It’s over.’
lost.
Unable to tolerate the enemy of God, everyone collapsed here.
Now I couldn’t even imagine how terrible the devil would do.
“Oh God!!”
Even while he was delirious with pain, he prayed earnestly to the gods who were looking down on him from heaven.
‘Please take care of your foolish and foolish servants and remove the disaster that will fall on the world. ‘This one body and soul pray earnestly.’
He had no doubt that his dying colleagues would have made similar wishes to him.
The moment his life finally comes to an end.
Stefan smiled as he felt his soul heading towards the heaven he had longed for.
‘God answered my prayer… You devil will be punished.’
– The time of purification is over.
The devil’s eyes seemed to widen for a moment as he looked into space.
– Immoral gods. Even if I tried to move now, it was too late.
Did you feel something?
The devil, who sneered and said something incomprehensible, shook his head.
Grumbling.
Soon, black flames erupted and the giant demon transformed into a small old man again. And he smiled kindly at his former student, who was spitting out blood and glaring at him.
“Luisa, you poor thing. How can you deny the truth?”
“Truth? It must be a trick. Are you deceiving others and calling it the truth?!”
A voice came from far away on behalf of Luisa, who was unable to answer because she was constantly vomiting blood.
At that shout, the old man’s eyes turned to the corner of the square.
The shabby appearance of former King Gerard, who screams in defeat.
‘The bugs were already exhausted and struggling even before I arrived.’
The old man sneered and shook his head.
“How can a lowly worm understand His will? The fact that I came here first, leaving my body with an ominous premonition, is also proof that His will will be accomplished.”
“…Crazy guy.”
Luisa had a pale complexion that looked as if she would collapse at any moment.
The swear words she spat out with difficulty reached the old man’s ears, albeit belatedly.
“Heulheul. Immorality has penetrated to the bone marrow. Well, the time for the ceremony is approaching, so let’s keep him alive until then.”
Soon, a black mist spread out from the old man’s hand.
Everyone in the hall except him lost consciousness.
