139 – Evil

“…It’s time.”

It is late afternoon as the sun begins to set.

– Chow!!

The estate of the Beinhard family.

A little far away at the end of the forest.

-Rush!!!

The allied forces of close to 1,000 who have completed all preparations,

They were advancing towards the Beinhardt family.

The sight of the Guild Association members following the Blood Ghost Knights and crossing the hill.

In such a quaint landscape,

An ancient witch who squeezed the strategy through the night and was favored by the Queen and Adela the next day and took over as the chief of operations for this expedition.

Veronica was looking at the back of the Bloodghost Knights with a stiff expression on her face.

“… Fighting. You can’t get used to it.”

The one who has been through the most wars.

Just because it was Veronica who was part of the hero’s party, it didn’t mean that she wasn’t nervous.

“Whoa…”

The lives of over a thousand people at her own fingertips.

Of course, the situation was such that she had to urgently devise countermeasures, so

She did her best, she could say with confidence.

But…

“… Let’s go.”

Apart from that, She

She knew deep down that good results wouldn’t come from just doing her best.

Even more, every fight couldn’t help but be tense.

The reality was that she always did not go according to the strategy she had been thinking about for days and nights.

Yes.

As if…

“Miss Veronica!!!”

Like now.

“Raiga…!! Rai disappeared!!”

“…What?”

Blonde elf girl,

Elena suddenly approached and informed herself that her Rai’s whereabouts were unknown.

“Didn’t she say she was going somewhere?”

“Yes… We were together until we came out of the forest…!! At some point!”

“…”

If at least it was a disappearance due to a raid,

Everyone nearby could have known.

Veronica recalls the things that happened in the past that passed through her mind without realizing it.

She clenched her teeth and placed her hand on the map of the waistband.

‘Jade…!’

That man,

It wasn’t once or twice that damn selfless man did this.

-Awesome!!

The scroll unfolds urgently,

On the map floating in the air, the pieces that he and the man had decided on yesterday came to mind one by one.

From the senior knights of the Blood Ghost Knights,

Guild Masters of the Guild Association. Even Professor Bergen there.

Each person with high fighting power or special ability was showing off their presence by floating in the air.

A horse in the shape of a boy holding a softly glowing sword.

The place where Lai’s horse is placed.

“Somehow. Late at night, he creeps up…”

From noble mtl dot com

I was too complacent.

Even though I knew that the contents were the man,

I was fooled by the changed, innocent-looking boy’s appearance.

-…Actually. I think it was a bit overkill in the last battle.

Even if you really overdo it,

I wasn’t the one to let people know about it.

A remote outskirts of the Merveus family mansion in the middle of the battlefield.

A place where magicians specializing in long-range attacks are mostly sold out in order to consume stems.

– To the fullest. Can you place them in a less influential position?

In fact, there were sheep, Morhan-gun, and the Blood Demon Knights in Fenrir Guild’s Killer,

The place where Lai’s horse was placed under the pretext of blocking long-range attacks in case of an emergency.

In other words,

A place where ‘with or without a rye’ has little to do with it.

Suddenly last night,

Raye’s shy smile flickers in my eyes as he nods in satisfaction with the changed arrangement.

aaah…

Unbeknownst to me, power went into the fingertips that opened the map.

The hologram magic horses are wandering around the changing terrain, repeatedly increasing and decreasing their size.

“… Head of the school?”

Miss Elena, who had come to deliver the situation, was looking at the scene in bewilderment.

‘…’

It wasn’t a time like this.

“Don’t worry.”

“Yes?”

“Last night. I heard something else. Rai will be deployed a little later due to the nature of her holy sword.”

Rai’s disappearance was a serious matter.

Not only the loss of power by far,

There were too many people and important records that could be shaken mentally by the fact that Rai went missing.

‘…A bastard.’

He left me again and left.

The hidden meaning of that shy smile is,

Foreseeing this situation, it must have been the minimum apology sent to me.

‘… Let’s see.’

As always,

After all this, he will return with a calm, friendly smile.

…With wounds all over his body.

“…Don’t tell anyone else.”

“Yes? Ah… That. Got it!”

For now,

The poor witch had no choice but to take on the sins that the mischievous hero had committed.

What did the Allied Forces cross the hill witness?

Between the mansions of the Beinhard family,

It was the figure of a huge red flower blooming from a bud as if waking sleepy eyes.

**

Meanwhile, at that time.

Near the outskirts of Beinhardt’s estate.

A man who appeared in a rare forest.

– Cheo-eok.

“…I hoped.”

No,

Two men.

Leaning against a tree, as if deep in thought,

A white-haired man was looking at the stone tomb in front of him with half-open eyes. He opened his mouth first.

“When our eyes met. I was sure.”

-Sueuk.

“…You are not seeing me for the first time.”

Brush.

The end of a man’s gaze.

A man with black hair appeared while digging through a bush.

The man’s eyes were red as he walked into the forest with his back to the setting sun.

A non-human being.

Red eyes to indicate that you are a vampire.

“A bit old-fashioned for a working comment, isn’t it?”

It’s not even pseudo.

With a tone so light that it breaks the atmosphere that was set at best,

A man with black hair. Rai appeared in front of the man with a mischievous smile.

“…Who are you?”

“Well…”

“The holy sword is not something anyone can use. A hero is determined by the dimension.”

…Jade?

-Chin.

How should I answer the man’s question?

Rai stood in front of the man scratching his head.

Unlike before, his hair was dyed white,

The right arm dyed purple, visible through the clothes.

-This is enough. You don’t have to give for humans anymore. At least… At least Livid has to go!

-Livid is… No.

I don’t know why this man is standing in front of me as the final villain in the novel.

As he was the first human and a fellow warrior,

For many years. There must have been numerous stories.

But that wasn’t my part-time job.

What should I say?

I am not Jade?

What are you going to do knowing that?

More than that.

The moment I first saw this man.

Really. There was something I really wanted to say.

“…”

Jerbug.

I wanted to see it like crazy.

Made Adela missing, killed the queen,

You who finally gave Seong Jin-ha death.

Jerbug.

Of my novel.

You brought an end to my little world.

“Haa…”

Jerbug.

We’ve finally come this far.

Getting caught up in various incidents like crazy,

I clenched my chest at useless thoughts that came to me every night.

Like that.

After thinking about it for a long time, I put a lot of emotions into it. An old friend of Jade and Rai,

B. To an old enemy of Han Shi-ha.

He gave a heartfelt message.

Remedy.

“…Nice to meet you.”

“…!”

And the answer is,

Unfortunately, it was also the answer the other person wanted.

The eyes of the two men cleverly interlocked.

– Huung!

The strong wind that penetrated the branches and bushes to the depths of the forest,

The hem of the white-haired man’s clothes and the black-haired man’s robe fluttered strongly.

**

“Launch!!!!”

-Pyuuu!!!

According to the signal of the intermediate knight,

A feast of countless ranged attacks that embroider the air.

Blood magic, or elemental magic. Or even arrows and throwing weapons.

The bombardment that flew in a parabola, dyeing the red sky in various colors,

The other side of the flower of the end. It flew towards the wave of mana that was fluctuating suspiciously.

-Charleurreureuk!!!

I wonder if I couldn’t leave it alone and watch it,

Hundreds of stalks parry long-range attacks. Accepted.

-Pooooong!!!!!

In the aftermath, dozens of stems exploded and blood poured out like rain from the sky.

But after a while, the green cells wriggle and regenerate the stem as if it had never happened.

But.

“… It’s slow!”

Compared to right after the battle started,

Noticeably reduced playback speed.

The hint was in the method of removing the painting of the underworld contained in the ancient book.

An underworld flower with blood will regenerate even if its roots are cut off.

Even if you think you pulled it out because of that,

In the process, the remaining roots or splinter fragments were regenerated, and the next time you came, you could find the regenerated figure of the underworld flower.

The important thing is to remove the ‘core’ of the underworld.

However, the location of the nucleus is different depending on the underworld,

Because its size is so small that it cannot be seen with the naked eye. It was virtually impossible to target and destroy nuclear weapons.

So the method I used…

-Suddenly!!!

“aaah!!!”

Choo!!

As dozens of stems were cut off by Adela’s sword,

The whole area is covered with blood and you can’t even see an inch in front of you.

…Just like this.

By causing the absorbed blood to be expelled, the cost of the regenerative ability was eliminated.

At first, the operation went smoothly as planned.

As a result,

If the playback speed at the time of the first encounter was ‘not even noticed that it was cut off’,

Because the current regeneration speed has been changed to ‘the degree to which recovery magic is received infinitely’.

But.

The wave of mana that continues to sway behind the flower of the apocalypse could not be contained,

It wasn’t the dimension to stand still and watch them being attacked like this.

-…Rush into it.

Inside the Beinhard Mansion.

A little over a hundred people showed up at some point.

And…

“”All for Him.””

Nineteen beings exuding unusual energy.

After their appearance, the aspect of the battlefield gradually changed drastically.

A gigantic cog wheel dances in the air,

An unidentified giant black hand rising from the ground.

There are even people flying through the sky and throwing mana bombs.

“Jinha!”

“…Uh!”

Sung Jin-ha is one of 19 people.

The displays turn around toward the man with countless guns and knives sprouting from his hands.

“…Huh? What are you?”

“…”

There is only one reason why Seong Jin-ha suddenly changed the layout of the battlefield.

-Charaaa!!

Instead of the man’s fingers, innumerable iron awls protruding hugely inflated their shapes and flew toward Seong Jin-ha.

That moment.

– Huung!!!

A dark red air current exploded around Seong Jin-ha.

“…! What..!!”

In the blink of an eye,

Sung Jin-ha, who reached in front of the man, stares into the man’s eyes.

The ‘red eyes’ of a man in bewilderment.

– Jjaeok!

Like a lamb before a wolf,

The action of the man who was spitting out swords and spears from his hands stopped.

It’s as if he doesn’t understand his own body that just doesn’t listen.

I just roll my eyes here and there and break out in a cold sweat.

The figure of a boy approaching in front of me.

Eyes that are so red that black depth is unknown.

The shape of the red-black bone, like a death god, wrapped around the boy as if to protect it,

The sword of the black blade in my hand was shining sharply.

“…Ah.”

The man belatedly releases mana and regains his body’s freedom, but…

-Suddenly!

Already,

It was a state that did not return to the body that had regained freedom.

“…”

No matter how special a being is,

It was a simple corpse that had lost its vitality, and it was a lump of meat.

-Chin.

Quaaa!!!

In the body of a man cut in half,

Not blood, but an ominous mass of black mana burst out.

-… What?! Did “Chungu” Get hit?!

Looking at the man’s upper body falling to the floor,

Sung Jin-ha turned to his next goal.
