Holy War (3)

Kugoogu Palace-

With the death of Felix II, the palace began to disintegrate. The aura of death overflowed, and a huge magic circle that covered the entire capital was activated.

Numerous demonized soldiers nearby melted into a handful of blood and seeped into the earth.

Again, magic power gathered around the throne where Felix II was sitting.

A huge crack formed and something began to squeeze through the gap.

From the sky full of demonic energy, visible through the collapsed roof, a blood-red rain was pouring down.

In the middle of it, Carol met eyes with a being that came out of a rift.

‘Dragon?’

The pupil of a reptile with a straight line. It was stained and muddy with demonic energy, but it was certain.

The being, which had more energy than any other being I had ever seen, finally set foot on the land, destroying the royal palace.

‘No, it’s not a normal dragon.’

The appearance itself was similar to the dragon Carol knew, but the details were slightly different.

Above all, it was eroded by Magi, revealing white bones, and decaying parts were visible everywhere.

The size was also small compared to the dragons in the records.

thud-

– Krrr…

The dragon was clearly a being with reason. As with Arcadia, and the many things they created, it was clear that they possessed undeniably superior intellect.

However, that existence, although in the form of a dragon, was no different from a beast.

that’s not a dragon

It is nothing more than a remnant of a dragon that has fallen into disrepair after spending a long time as a toy for the demons.

Nevertheless, the ‘force’ emitted by that existence was completely different from that of an ordinary human being.

It wasn’t murder or malice towards anyone. A tyrannical force that oppresses everything just by existing.

Dragon Fear.

The intangible pressure that was pressed down with an overwhelming force was primal fear itself.

“Sorry.”

That’s why he felt more sorry for Carol.

A being like that howled like a beast.

The dragon, which only had its instincts, remained still, wary of Carol.

As always, the dragon’s eyes couldn’t see through to Carol.

On the other hand, Carol’s understanding of that existence was over to some extent.

fleeting moment.

Carol’s sword was cutting the dragon’s head.

The gigantic body, easily over 10m in height, was tantamount to immense power, but for Carol, it was just a bigger target.

Amidst the pouring rain of blood, black thunderbolts flashed and covered the heavens and earth.

‘I have no sense of the sword.’

Clearly, Carol cut off the dragon’s head.

However, the dragon was ‘still’ intact.

‘Dragon magic?’

In the brief moment that Carol struck down the sword, the dragon used dragon magic to evade Carol’s attack.

It wasn’t just dodging with quick movements. In an instant, the space itself was separated from the world. I was sure because it was Carol who was using subspace.

Hwaaak!

Dark red flames splendidly bloomed where Carol was. There was not even a hint.

Unreasonably overwhelming casting speed and efficiency.

That was by no means an exaggeration.

After recognizing the dragon, it was Carol who was wearing a thin layer of self-defense, so there was no damage.

Carol marveled at the fact that an existence without reason blew away such great magic.

A torrent of blood rained down incessantly, colliding with flames that spread as if to cover the entire land, generating thick vapor.

Kwaaang-!

Magi and mana swirled around the dragon’s split mouth, and in an instant, a huge bombardment was fired at Carol. The breath shot through the flames went endlessly, smashing the palace as well as parts of the city.

squeak.

The speeding light of the black lightning cut off the dragon’s head. While trying to fire the breath, the dragon’s body was defenseless, and Carol didn’t miss the opportunity.

‘how….’

Carol cut off the dragon’s head. However, the dragon’s head was not cut off.

As if rewinding time, the dragon restored its severed head. It wasn’t simply recovering with high regenerative power.

This dragon itself was resonating with the magic circle that spread over the royal capital, causing miracles.

Hundreds of blue dots floated around the dragon.

In terms of the size of the power alone, it was overwhelming. A dragon that has a lot of energy in its body from the beginning.

In addition, magic specialized in using outside air.

Magical power and demonic energy that come from resonating with the entire royal capital.

Hundreds or thousands of bullets with high density of magic were fired at Carol.

The dragon magic that oppresses the space presses down on the earth.

While the breath, a mixture of enormous magic and mana, was fired endlessly.

Carol felt a mysterious feeling.

How long has it been since you faced such an overwhelming energy?

It was the first time since Master.

Black Lightning’s swordsmanship trajected indiscriminately, intercepting the dragon’s attacks.

Every time there was a gap, the distance was reduced and the dragon was cut in all kinds of ways, but it was regenerated again in an instant.

Kwaaang-!

The mighty sword left by Carol and the magic bullet fired by the dragon collided, creating an exploding wave of power.

The site where the royal palace was already located disappeared without even a trace as the ground itself disappeared due to the randomly fired magic. The city, too, was turning into ruins and wasteland, with the entire surface of the land turned upside down.

The earth was shattered and split by Carol’s sword strike and the dragon’s breath.

The number of times the dragon has regenerated has easily exceeded dozens of times, but the momentum it exhaled was no different from the first time.

‘…’

It wasn’t good. Until now, they responded with overwhelming efficiency to overwhelming amounts.

As human beings, it was impossible to continue fighting indefinitely. Reaching Talma and uniting with the energies of Heaven and Earth.

Drawing power from the rings on the fingers.

Even if the thick demonic energy spread in the air was converted into the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art, it was certain that there would be a limit someday.

It was an advantage that Carol didn’t have to spare any power to attack because there were no people, but that alone was not enough.

On the other hand, it was not clear where the limits of that dragon, which received power from the entire royal capital, were.

From noble mtl dot com

Judging from the fact that even if a part of the magic circle was destroyed, it was restored in an instant, it wasn’t even a normal form of magic.

Quaang-!

The dragon kicked off the ground and rushed at Carol, waving its tentacle-like tail like a whip. At the spot where the tail struck, a magical storm occurred, and skewers rained down in all directions.

‘It’s ridiculous.’

Even though I lost my reason, it’s this much. Immediately counterattacked, cut off the tail and hacked the dragon’s body, but it was restored to its original state in an instant.

Even though the entire body was cut into hundreds of pieces due to Carol’s fierce slash, the dragon reappeared intact as if rewinding itself to the place where it was originally summoned.

I thought for a while about whether I should use a sealed demon sword type that requires a lot of energy, but from Carol’s point of view I wasn’t sure.

Will it really end just by turning it into a handful of blood with a strong attack? As long as you don’t know that, it’s only right to keep things that require huge amounts of energy like the Sealing Demon Sword type until the very end.

‘Carl.’

Inside, training had been calling out to Carol and expressing her strong will.

From when dragons first appeared to now.

Su-ryun wanted to join the fight, but Carol didn’t allow it.

The level of training was unreliable to intervene in such a fight. In the first place, there was something that Carol was reluctant to send a child-like training into battle.

‘you can do it.’

One word, one word.

Like a dragon, training spat out words in Carol’s image.

“…”

While fighting the dragon, Carol pondered for a while. He kept asking for it, and it was impossible to refuse.

In any case, if a dangerous situation came, it was possible to immediately put it in subspace.

“…Don’t overdo it.”

Carol said while taking out a water lily from subspace.

nod

Soo-ryun, holding a huge scythe, nodded while avoiding the countless light bullets fired by the dragon.

I couldn’t get close to it, but I hit it with the same dragon word magic and canceled it.

I was fighting better than I thought.

In the end, in Carol’s judgment, the only way to annihilate that existence with certainty was to destroy all of the magic circles spread throughout the royal capital.

One by one, it didn’t make any sense. I confirmed that it will be restored immediately. Destroying them at once was the answer.

seal sword type.

Even that alone wasn’t enough.

Carol stepped on the air and started ascending to the high sky.

Sensing something unusual, the dragon fired light bullets and breath upwards, but Carol’s slash slashed them all equally and annihilated them.

A place high enough to put even the clouds under your feet.

Because it requires a high degree of concentration, it was not easily used during battle. Above all, the level of proficiency was still low. Nonetheless, in the current situation, this was optimal.

Kwaaang-

A breath fired from the ground cut through the clouds and rushed at me.

“Park Xin!”

A clear voice echoed across the land.

As Su Lily struck the ground with her scythe, thousands of golden chains appeared, restraining the dragon’s movement. While the dragon stopped at the dragon word magic practiced.

Carol finished her preparations.

A whirlwind of divine demon energy swirled around the black thunder. The energy of the Cheonma Shin Gong and the new demon skill that were generously beaten. And the black lightning strike distorted even space and vibrated.

It was so much of a burden that even Carol couldn’t sustain it for long.

He was immediately summoned from training to subspace.

After confirming once more that Soo-ryun entered the sub-space, he went to the center of the royal capital. Carol threw the black lightning at the place where the palace was.

aaa-!

With a deafening roar, the black lightning struck the ground like a scourge.

Among them.

The explosion that started from the black lightning turned into a lightning storm that wiped out the entire capital, creating a mushroom cloud.

The energy of the Heavenly Demon Singong and the Shinma collided with the tremendous shock wave emitted, annihilating everything and spreading out.

Soon, nothing was left in the place where the wave of virtuoso flowed endlessly to the extent that it even reached the high sky where Carol was.

The brilliant king also disappeared in Sylvania, leaving only a huge pit.

The dragon, as well as the magic circle, disappeared without a trace.

tadak.

Feeling extremely exhausted, Carol came down to the ground.

‘This…?’

The place where the black thunder is stuck.

There was a jewel that shone brilliantly.

It was the light Carol remembered seeing.

dragon heart.

Despite the massive impact that annihilated the entire city, only the dragon heart remained unbroken and radiated light.

Carol picked up the dragon heart.

I could feel the red demonic energy shimmering in the brilliant light inside the dragon heart.

He immediately injected the energy of the Heavenly Demon Spirit. At first, there was some repulsive force, but soon the Dragon Heart was engulfed by the energy of the Heavenly Demon Spirit and began to be dyed black.

At the end of pouring almost all the remaining inner strength.

Finally, Carol succeeded in extinguishing all the demonic energy remaining in Dragon Heart.

Considering the size of the dragon, it was difficult to see this as a complete dragon heart.

‘…It’s an unexpected income.’

Carol guessed that Asmodeus didn’t expect something like this.

The dragon was summoned around this magic circle, and it was in a position where it could not be moved easily.

He intended to enjoy seeing Carol run away from the dragon, but it was clear that Asmodeus would not have thought of getting rid of the dragon by annihilating the entire city.

“Whoa…”

Carol let out a deep breath.

Shinma Convergence Skill

This martial art, newly invented from the ground up, was quite burdensome to Carol’s body.

Although it boasted an unbelievably wide range of power.

“Good job.”

First, after taking out the water lilies from subspace, Carol stroked her hair and praised her.

Nod.

Soo-ryun, who slightly closed her eyes like a cat, nodded her head in satisfaction.

‘I guess I should rest.’

I took out the chair and shade from the subspace.

In the middle of the ruins where everything disappeared like that, Carol and training began to rest.

* * *

A western hero who leads the Central Army Group.

The imperial army led by Wallenstein had reached the capital of the Resavik Kingdom first.

On the way to the royal road while defeating countless monsters.

A blinding light came from the direction of the royal road.

– I’ll check first.

Wallenstein was a vanguard, not a rear commander. It was a personality that couldn’t stand being frustrated. Wallenstein, who rode the Griffon and immediately headed to the capital of the Resavik Kingdom, was speechless.

“Mi… crazy…”

In the place where the royal road should be, only ruins remained.

No, to be precise, it was hard to see it as ruins.

It was just barren.

Sylvania, the capital of the Lesavik Kingdom, was a city that even Wallenstein had visited before.

As a historic city, it was quite famous among Westerners.

Such a city disappeared overnight.

‘What the hell is going on…’

No matter how great magic was, it was impossible to destroy the city overnight.

Of course, I don’t know if the things sleeping in the Imperial Magic Tower’s special storage were taken out, but I haven’t heard of such a thing.

While flying over the land that used to be the royal capital on a griffon, Wallenstein noticed something strange.

blue parasol.

Embarrassed at how he didn’t fit in with the wasteland, Wallenstein immediately descended to the ground.

There was a young man and woman sitting in a chair in a comfortable position drinking something.

“welcome.”

Carol, immediately recognizing that he was an Imperial soldier just by his uniform, got up from his chair and greeted Wallenstein calmly.

“…?”

Seeing that, Wallenstein could only stare blankly at Carol with his mouth open.
