Chapter 1093 Episode 256 Morganiel (2)
This is Morganiel’s territory. Her calm voice contained all the pain of the Black Sea expedition that had lasted for the past several decades.
The harsh years that even Siron and his most loyal knights felt were infinitely harsh were finally almost over. Morganiel, the last remaining king of the Black Sea, was left behind.
Therefore, Siron did not show any signs of happiness when he saw the troops and fleet led by his grown children.
“In combat, First Rider. “Stand up and focus on the enemy.”
Luna immediately changed her attitude at the cold and cool tone of her voice, as if she was going through a demonic attack.
As they said, this place was a battlefield. Even if almost all of the world’s strongest warriors were gathered together, the Black Sea was the land where one must never relax. Of course, Siron was now the ‘head of the family’, not the father.
“I’m sorry, matriarch. “I will correct it.”
“The troops other than the expedition remain under the command of Sogaju Jin Runkandel. It is Morganiel’s energy that pours into this area. Be careful of what seeps into your body and inside you. “It would be best for everyone except Changseong to not leave the ship until the snow stops.”
Jin, Ban, and Murakan disembarked from each ship and faced Siron.
‘If it weren’t for you, I would have heard you too.’
Jin only bowed his sword to Siron and brought up his senses without saying a word. The spears that followed Luna naturally took up their positions as if they had carried out an operation and fought with Siron yesterday as well.
Hoepo could be released as much as he wanted even after finishing off Morganiel.
There were no other expedition members in sight. However, the spearmen could sense that they were scattered and pursuing Morganiel.
‘Morganiel noticed that we were coming and started running away. Reading the expedition members’ movements, it hasn’t been long…’
It’s weak.
The spearmen who began advancing towards Morganiel’s territory noticed that his energy was very weak and faint.
It was like air. You can only know that something exists by recognizing it. Morganiel’s energy fell like snow, so I had to consciously push it away at every moment.
Morganiel gave off a fundamentally different aura from the other Five Black Sea Kings that the Alliance and the Expedition had previously dealt with.
Not huge, not threatening, not dark.
But that makes me even more reluctant.
“The energy that this guy named Morganiel has… I think it somehow resembles the little Eternal Flower.”
Ban nodded at Murakan’s evaluation. The pure white energy that gently fell disappeared quietly when it touched the body, to the extent that one could not tell whether it was melting or seeping in.
The reason Siron sat still until the Union fleet arrived was to clear away Morganiel’s energy that had seeped into his body and mind.
“The fleet will advance with La Prarosa at the head, but be careful not to get ahead of the spears. Focus on encircling and blocking retreat routes rather than attacking. Also, artillery fire is absolutely prohibited before my order.”
At Jin’s command, the fleet changed its formation.
The advance continued for a time with surprising calm. Move, shake off Morganiel’s eyes, move again.
As time passed, the scenery changed little by little. Morganiel’s pure white snow field suddenly turned gray, and visibility became extremely narrow, as if a thick fog had covered it.
Even the chanters couldn’t tell the difference between people five steps in front of them.
It was impossible to read energy or distinguish between strides and breathing sounds. This is not the first time this kind of sensory disturbance has been used, but it was characterized by being more precise and natural.
However, it cannot be a threat to Changseongs.
In some ways, it was an obvious maneuver. If the spirits’ nerves are dispersed due to disturbed senses, the likelihood of being exposed to Morganiel’s energy increases.
“Morganiel. Anyway, now you are the only one left. “Why not hurry up and get the sword and feel more comfortable?”
Whoa…!
For the first time, Siron slowly cut through the gray snow and wind with his sword. Then, in an instant, the figure of Morganiel, hidden among the fog, was revealed.
It looks like a person made of plaster, and cracks spread all over its face and body like a damaged statue.
It was a mark from Siron’s sword earlier.
To be precise, every time Siron struck a blow to the ‘Black Sea’, Morganiel suffered a blow to his body. It was Siron’s first time seeing Morganiel from such a close distance.
Morganiel could not hide himself in the fog again.
Alliance spears were already pointing their swords all around her. Khan and other expedition members also appeared at the location where the spears had cleared the fog, and they were all gaunt and thin. It was the result of Morganiel’s energy continuing to permeate.
‘Is this… the last remaining King of the Black Sea?’
The largest fragment of the origin stone.
Jin finally got the feeling that the attributes of various transcendent beings were imbued within him by the old enemy of Shiron.
In fact, its appearance resembles Malugia as if it were a brother, and the spiritual energy spread everywhere shows characteristics similar to Eternal Flower.
For some reason, I could see half of him in the sword he was holding in his hand, in his deep and emotionless eyes, I could see Shiron before demonization, and in his fingernails, which were the only thing shining black while everything was gray, I could see the evil spirit.
Even the strong enemies of the past, such as Paelito, Simat, and Zito, as well as the feelings of Luna and Murakan, seemed to be buried somewhere in Morganiel.
‘Is it an illusion? no. What is this…?’
Jin wasn’t the only one who felt that way. Everyone except Shiron was shocked by the uncomfortable feeling.
Only Siron was fully focused on the wounds on her body.
A scar carved from cutting down the Black Sea all my life, ever since I was young. It was no exaggeration to say that it symbolized Shiron’s entire life.
“I appeared in this world to cut you down.”
Siron’s voice was trembling slightly.
It was truly joy. It was my first time feeling so fulfilled before taking the life of an enemy.
Morganiel did not respond but fixed his gaze on Siron. Even though the spearmen completely surrounded Morganiel, they did not push their swords forward.
Because it had stopped snowing. Even though I continued to be aware of it, I could feel the energy of Morganiel building up heavily throughout my body and mind.
It could be said that it was a price that must be paid to face Morganiel at such a close distance. Changseong was the minimum qualification to pay the price.
‘It’s a trap you can’t help but fall into.’
Long-distance battles cannot proceed because there are tracking problems, and close-range battles have no choice but to start with Morganiel eroded.
In that sense, Morganiel had already rendered one of the weapons of those who came to him useless. The Golden Fleet, including the air fortress Laprarosa, could not bombard Morganiel in the current situation.
This was because the eroded spears could not produce the same power as usual. Aura, magical power, brain energy, spiritual energy. Morganiel’s energy that penetrated the spears was blocking most of their power.
Trained body and will.
There were only two abilities that the spears could use to attack Morganiel. It completely blocked the energy of the five Changsung.
An immense power that separates mountains and earth, sky and sea.
In the first place, such a force had to be fought as if it had never existed in this world. The spears and Morganiel himself.
If the fleet pours down artillery fire in this state, the spears will explode as helplessly as ordinary humans.
Grinning, Siron smiled and took a step closer to Morganiel.
And at that moment, Morganiel’s blade flew first into Siron’s neck. Siron struck out the blade and tried to cut Morganiel’s waist in return, and the spears holding her back also extended their swords almost at the same time.
Morganiel could not avoid all of the blades. While Barisada and the gray sword were intertwined, Jin, Luna, and Ban’s blades pierced and grazed her back.
A new crack appeared in the stone-like body, and red blood, like a human being, splattered out of the crack.
Before even 10 seconds had passed, Morganiel had turned into a blood-stained stone statue, leaving behind a slimy blood trail every time he moved. If her body had turned into an ordinary human like Changseongdeul, the fight would have already ended at this point.
Cheow, kigiggeek!
Every time the swords of the spearmen and Murakhan’s claws touched, blood and stones flew from Morganiel. Siron, who was still in charge, was covered in the most blood and debris.
[Death comes equally to everyone, Siron Runkandel.]
Morganiel’s sword pierced Siron’s shoulder. However, the wound was not very deep, and Siron cut Morganiel’s wrist just as she was about to retrieve the blade.
Hit, hit…!
Morganiel’s wrist broke and fell to the ground, as if he had been hit by a blunt weapon rather than a sword. The sword he was holding shattered like glass, leaving sharp pieces on the floor.
It was the moment the battle ended. Siron wiped Morganiel’s blood and debris from his face and looked down at her, while the spearmen caught their breath and kneeled down at her.
“Is that all you have to say, Morganiel?”
Suddenly, the vibration started.
Just as Morganiel was wounded every time Siron cut down the Black Sea, this time the entire Black Sea is reacting to Morganiel’s death.
Morganiel slowly raised his head and made eye contact with Siron. Even though death was approaching, the changseongs were still able to identify various transcendent beings from her. In fact, it felt even darker than the first time, like a nightmare.
[The reason I have decided to die by your hands now is simply so as not to violate that truth. I hope victory lies ahead for you, my old friend.]
