Episode 200
Inside the carriage running on the road of Kaladi.
Colius was contemplating the catacombs with his legs crossed.
‘There’s no way a witch could have revealed her power.’
Beria’s catacombs.
The reason why she has been secluded all this time is not unknown to Colliers.
It is an ambiguous time to suddenly reveal one’s strength.
‘It’s not strange.’
The energy I felt was definitely corruption.
However, it’s not that intense.
It was not that great of an energy for Colius, who had fought the undying Corruption.
“Actually, I didn’t feel it.”
“Me too. In the first place, why is the aura of corruption in the catacombs…”
Esther said that she did not understand at all. On the other hand, Ailee was a little different.
“It can appear. The owner of the catacombs must still exist.”
“yes? what kind of crap is that To think that there is an owner of the catacombs…”
Esther asks back.
Snuggle Geek!
rattle. Suddenly, the wagon abruptly stops.
The windows of the swaying wagon shattered.
The beast’s sharp teeth poked its head between them.
Kwajik.
However, Colius, who was reacting in advance, created a strong weapon with his hand and stabbed the beast’s head.
“Is this a magic trick?”
[Royal Road Urgent Quest]
– Defeat the Witch’s Beast!
Quest I haven’t seen in a long time.
Seeing that it was a witch’s spell, it must have been Beria’s work.
But Colliers was full of questions.
‘why.’
Beria.
She hopes to be imprisoned in the catacombs herself and is a fallen woman there.
A witch with no vengeance, no belief in God.
She is a woman who will only exist so far to find the truth.
‘Why would a witch who didn’t have to reveal herself do this?’
Apparently, the princess had entered the catacombs not too long ago. However, Beria is reluctant to meet people, and even if he met her, she is not so easy that she would be beaten by a princess.
But why the hell…
“The coachman is dead! Colliers! Come out quickly!”
In front of the castle gate.
All sorts of bizarre monsters were coming out from within the walls.
“I can’t even rest.”
Chimera-like beasts with human heads or attached arms usually climb or jump off the walls and head for houses.
Residents scream and run away and are bitten to death.
Carpe’s troops are rushing to block the monsters, but the situation is so sudden that it can’t be helped that the damage has increased.
blame blame.
“Lord! I’ve been looking for a while!”
Allen and Aaron. And it was Orphin.
The blood of the beast was splattered all around the clothes, as if he had fought straight here.
“The situation is as it seems. Kill the demons and save the citizens.”
“yes! Where is the lord…”
“I should go to the place where the monsters jump out with the saints. At this point, everyone will be gathering over there anyway.”
Poof poof!
The arrows flying through the wind cut off the breath of the beasts.
“Ewwcha!”
“This guy looks like he has no taste buds!”
Familiar screams and voices.
It seems there is no need to worry.
It was Serena, Aldufilo, and Puppy.
“Looks like something interesting happened?”
In addition to that, even Junice, the saintess of the shield.
When he saw his smiling face while holding his round shield, the corners of his eyes naturally furrowed.
Callius drew his sword and spoke to the soldiers who were desperately blocking the gate.
“Open the gates.”
“yes!? What is that now…”
“If I open it now, demonic beasts will pour out!”
“I won’t say it twice. open it.”
“I see! please!!”
drooling!!
The blocking pulley is released and the castle gate is wide open.
immediately.
All kinds of bizarre monsters hanging from the castle gate poured out like waves.
The number is roughly in the hundreds.
Despair dwells in the number of demonic beasts that fill the sky and fall.
However.
“Looks like worms.”
With a word full of hate.
Let’s go, let’s go!
Suddenly, the new model of Callius disappeared, and at the same time, the monsters that filled the sky turned to ashes and disappeared.
“omg!”
self.
Soldiers were astonished, knights admired, and saints smiled as the monsters fell and turned to ashes.
“Speed up a little.”
thud.
Soon after, a black shadow appeared around Colius, who lowered his sword to the ground.
Immediately, his Ashen Legion appears.
All of them looked as if they were going to kill the Witchbeasts.
“Clean it up.”
oh oh oh oh!!
With the loud sound of the reinforced troll generals’ flagships, the battlefield of the monsters and legions unfolded within the castle.
The majesty of the Legion, which tore, cut, and crushed, was a great momentum for anyone to see.
“It’s amazing every time I see it. is that a troll? When did you make trolls your subordinates?”
“I am just lucky.”
Accompanied by Esther, who was amazed, Ailee made a spear out of the dead soldier’s corpse and followed after Colius.
‘Why is it so fast?’
It runs at an invisible speed.
Even if you run together, it disappears at some point, and if you notice it, the beasts turn into ashes.
The soldiers who were fighting the monsters were confused and cried out the name of Colius while watching the gray army appearing behind them.
‘This is the direction to the catacombs… Ah.’
The catacombs are supposed to go underground, but Colius went upstairs.
Why did I do that?
“count!”
The queen and the other masters who were dealing with the monsters that jumped out into the hallway appeared in the eyes of the saintess.
The queen rushed out between the masters and greeted Callius.
“I will go to the catacombs.”
“Are you all right, Count? Catacombs are labyrinths. It would be better to send soldiers to check the road first or to block it altogether!”
“There is corruption in the catacombs. I will go and remove it.”
“!!”
What a fall!
It also fell into the basement of the royal castle?!
“There is corruption in the catacombs! Stop talking nonsense, Count!”
“Right! To say there is corruption at the bottom of the capital is absurd! So, does His Highness have been living in the place of corruption!?”
Judgment Gerald.
The black knight, Levidon, strongly questioned.
“Then, how would you explain the appearance of these bizarre witches?”
“That’s…”
the queen asked in a worried tone as she kept her mouth shut.
“Is it related to the princess?”
“…I don’t know yet.”
But it won’t be unrelated.
Witches aren’t inherently troublemakers.
“it’s okay. Whether the princess awakened corruption or she was corrupted, nothing will come out of the catacombs from today.”
In response to Callius’ firm determination, the Queen smiled faintly and extended her hand.
“Then please take this.”
“This is…”
It was a necklace with a small, dark-green rectangular gem dangling from it.
“Please think of me as me and cherish me. Because this will save your life at least once. Lord Chloe?”
“I will obey your order. majesty.”
“Lead the royal knights and clear the way for the count. Make it a little bit easier for him on his way.”
“All right.”
At that time, the fire horse Karina knelt down.
“Your Highness, I will also, together with the Count, punish the group of evil located in the catacombs!”
It means going with Colius.
However, he shook his head.
“Me and the saints are enough.”
“I see. The rest of you should do everything in your power to ensure the safety of the demons and citizens that have spread throughout the capital.”
“I accept your order…”
After a while.
royal underground.
At the entrance to the catacombs, Callius walked through the blood-smelling corridors and saw broken iron bars and doors.
It seemed like there was a terrifying sound of monsters with multiple limbs lined up and gnawing at something.
Looking at the entrance to the catacombs, Chloe shook her head and said,
“Are you okay? The Catacombs are more expansive than you might think. It’s not called a labyrinth for nothing. If you lose your way, it won’t be easy to get out.”
“Lord Chloe.”
“Tell me Count.”
“Do you know what is most important in battle?”
“Suddenly, why is that… Of course it’s swordsmanship.”
“That is not a wrong answer.”
“Then what do you think?”
“It is knowing the way.”
His aura, swirling in purple, spreads like a ripple from beneath his feet.
It was meaningless to say that he lost his way to Colius, who sensed the ripples that spread gently from the entrance of the labyrinth to the dead end and even the remains lying on the floor.
Add to that.
“good.”
Even the Ashen Legion.
Why do they need them when they can search the entire labyrinth just in case?
“I will go first. A lot of people in the labyrinth are rather poison.”
“Now wait! Huh… heh heh.”
Without a moment to stop, the saintess and Callius disappeared into the labyrinth.
“How do I do this?”
“We go too. There is nothing wrong with figuring out the labyrinth at this time and presenting the truth to Your Highness. It happened because I was ignorant of the Catacombs, so the first thing to do is to prevent this from happening again. The rest…”
He’ll take care of it.
* * *
A labyrinth on the 4th floor of the Catacombs.
In the gap between the dizzying expanse of space and the bizarre beasts.
The two women were facing each other.
“There is no such thing as a crazy bitch.”
“It’s the first time I’ve heard it in my life. Why?”
The person in front of the woman wearing a robe was a princess wearing the clothes of the principality.
Princess Rebecca.
Her clothes were all torn and covered in blood, and she had serious injuries running down to her intestines.
Of course, the owner of this vast labyrinth made her that way.
Witch of the Catacombs.
“How did know? No one would know that I am alive.”
“Why do you think so?”
“Because everyone who came in here died.”
There was no way the secret would leak out.
she says so
But Rebecca laughed.
“What is funny?”
“Because there is a guy who survived. Didn’t I come to see you?”
“Who is it?”
“I met you once before.”
Ting. A gold coin bounced off the thumb.
The witch who snatched it up frowned.
“Goblin. That bastard.”
Goblin Gold Coin.
The witch cursed at the goblin for a long time to see if she had any insight.
“I am very interested in you. Beria, the self-corrupt witch.”
A self-corrupted witch.
The witch’s eyes became a little serious at the word “self”.
“What do you want? I tend to hate noisy things.”
The witch who took the gold coin gestured to the demons who were drooling towards Rebecca.
They rushed like beasts, but at the witch’s command, they disappeared as if they were dead.
Rebecca, who confirmed the appearance, said with a hard smile only then.
“Let me meet God.”
god.
These were not words that came out lightly from the mouth of a dying woman.
The witch’s eyes narrowed.
It doesn’t look like you’re talking nonsense.
“…The reason is?”
“That’s how you’ll be able to fall.”
As if she had given the correct answer, Rebecca’s dignified attitude drew an interesting line at the corners of the witch’s purple mouth.
“Why do you want to fall?”
“To challenge.”
challenge.
At those words, the witch’s laughter bloomed.
“That sounds absurd. Do you really believe that?”
“Did you believe that too?”
Fallen to challenge the gods.
Rebecca was saying that.
“That is correct.”
The witch took off her robe and thrust out her sword with a satisfied smile.
hooked
Rebecca’s heart-pierced moans come out.
“Kkeuh…”
“Meet me. Slap those fussy bastards in the face. If you do, you’ll be ‘thrown away’ right away like your wish.”
Abandonment by God is corruption.
If you want to corrupt yourself.
God will throw you down.
I will gladly disarm you, and then you will be freed from mortality.
“You will fall and get a chance to challenge.”
