CH 67

: Leviathan (1)

"Be filthy far away."

A man with an impressive 5 to 5 part murmured in an annoying voice. The droopy eyes matched the current figure very well.

"Hold on a little bit. Isn't this all for our Goddess?

Conversely, a middle-aged man with his hair neatly tucked back gave him encouragement.

They were Airak and Philos, the holy executioners of the Pyro Church, who were dispatched at the request of the Apton branch.

A man with a 5 to 5 part, Airak, lay down on his horse.

"How far ahead do we have to go?"

"Let's see."

Philos opened the map by hand.

Originally, there should have been an attendant, but this time the dispatch was secret, so the two were going separately.

Philos narrowed his eyes and looked at the map as far away as possible.

Seeing that, Airak asked with a voice that seemed ridiculous.

"Are you even presbyopia?"

"Aren't you at that age?"

"What is the Holy Executioner ."

Iraq shook his head and looked up at the sky.

At that time, Philos, who had roughly found his current location, said in an excited voice.

Five! I'll be here in two days.

Damn it. It's still two days."

"Rather than that, get a proof plate and get ready. It's a border."

The Great Church of the Pyro Church was based in the Kingdom of Sinsilly. So we had to cross the border to get to Apton.

"Las, that little bastard. He didn't do it right, so why do I have to suffer like this?

"Why are you talking to Las again?"

"If he took care of himself, would we be doing this on the street right now?"

"Not on the side of the road, but on the horse."

"Don't play with words! It's not even fun."

"Anyway, Lars that guy. Still, you posted something."

What happened at Heis was immediately reported.

There, Lars rescued the 'Apostle of the Goddess' who had been kidnapped by the chimera creator, and completely wiped out the rest.

huh. It could have been any of us."

"You are too strict with Lars."

"You can be a little strict. Because that little guy still has a lot to learn. Just this time, look. You can't do anything alone."

"I remember the days when you were a freshman."

Seeing Philos smiling and talking, Airak coughed for nothing.

"When the hell is that?"

"Does it feel like yesterday to me?"

That's Okay!

Iraq cried out and turned around with his back to Philos.

It was Philos who thought he could lie down on a hard, curved horse.

That was then.

"Who are you?"

Philos' face, which had been saddened, turned sharp.

Airak also had his hand on the handle of the sword when he woke up.

That much, the prayer felt from the duo standing in front of them was unusual.

Philos asked the two of them again, pressing the robe hoods deeply.

"Who are you?"

"Unfortunately, there is no identity to tell."

It was a beautiful high-tone voice.

Not a woman though. It was a man's voice.

At that moment, the other mumbled annoyed.

"The boss is really . Does it make sense to put us in just to earn time?"

what?

"I didn't tell you, so don't worry."

"Is that crazy?"

Iraq frowned and got off his horse.

Philos sighed and followed along.

They each drew their swords and aimed them at the unknown enemies.

"I don't know what they are doing, but it seems we are the target."

"Did you know who we are and get in the way?"

A strong divinity began to flow from Airak's body.

Then, the gentleman answered, drawing an arc on his lips that looked under the hood.

"Aren't you the divine executors of the Pyro goddess?"

" you, what are you?"

"Are you saying they came to stop you for a while?"

annoying. It's really annoying because of the captain!

"Can you do that in front of the horse captain?"

"Are you going to do it?"

At the other's murmuring, the silent man grinned and looked at the two holy executioners again.

Then he pulled the sword out of his arms. It was a thin rapier.

The other was an ordinary sword.

"Iraq. These guys are talented."

"I have eyes too."

"From the start, we go with power. I don't have much time."

Two divine lights erupted.

The two paladins who had become 'sword of judgment' flew towards the robes.

Divinity began to flow from the bodies of the Robes.

"I wanted to compete with you at least once."

The moment Airak and Philos opened their eyes, the four swords collided, creating a violent storm of light.

* * *

At that time, a man was looking at the quiet city from a tall building.

"It must have collided."

It was Sable.

He thought of the men who would be blocking the Holy Executors by now.

They are members of the Seven Knights, the highest power in the Zenith Church. In other words, he was a powerful person on an equal footing with the Holy Executioner.

'It's enough to take a day off.'

He thought of the Marquis Bell, who was still asleep.

I remember the first time I met him.

"It was a lot of fun, Marquis."

But now it's over.

The Marquis slowly began to doubt himself.

From what I've been watching over the years, the Marquis will quietly and tenaciously seek to reveal his secrets from the moment of doubt.

He was one of the few people Sable recognized.

If he made up his mind to do it, it was clear that even himself would be exposed in an instant.

So I had to finish it while there was still a little bit of faith left.

"If the demons resurrect, we will not be able to stop them."

Beiryl was worried, but he left Apton.

The feet of the two holy executors who came here were also tied up.

Another Holy Executioner in Apton was also talented, but he wasn't enough to deal with demons alone.

The Archbishop is too old.

And the apostles and saints of the newly appeared goddess.

'The flow flows for us.'

I didn't know that the Pyro goddess' apostle would appear.

It was proof that she was cornered, but it wasn't good news for Zenith.

But I came all the way here.

Sable pulled out his sword halfway.

The moment the demons wake up, there will be a great commotion in Apton. It wasn't difficult to assassinate the goddess's apostle if he was aiming for that gap.

Sable looked at his own face reflected in the blade.

A familiar boy's face gleamed above him.

'Jamie Welton.'

A 7-year-old boy who shows his magical skills and looks not like a 7-year-old.

He knew that his talent was terrifying, but unfortunately, it was impossible to stop the demons with his skills now.

But, why do I remember that kid?

'It's an absurd idea. Unless Earl Wellton comes, nothing will happen.'

It's not unusual, but it's still a child.

In the first place, with my current skills, if the demons were to be resurrected, it wasn't even an obstacle.

The heart is ready. As soon as the monster returns to the forest, preparations for hatching will be complete.

Sable erased any anxiety and jumped out of the building.

However, Sable had to ignore the anxiety.

* * *

Jamie summoned Bena before heading to the place where she felt her power.

why?

"Take this."

Jamie threw a ring at her.

Taking the ring, she blinked and looked at Jamie.

Then he blushed and stuttered in a bewildered voice.

"I, I, I, I, I, what is this?!"

"What are you so upset about?"

"Ah, ah, no. We, we are too young Especially if the Master is you, too young ."

"What kind of dog misunderstanding are you making?"

Jamie frowned and told how he got the ring.

"It was taken from the ruins. It seems like a weapon that suits you quite well."

"A weapon?"

Bena tilted her head and looked at the ring.

It was an ordinary-looking gold ring.

She took a small bite to see if it was really a gold ring.

Ouch! Is this fake?"

" Shut up and get in."

Bena put the ring on her middle finger.

It was a little loose because of her thin fingers, but the ring shrunk to fit Bena's like a lie.

"Artifacts?"

"Inject mana."

I know.

As Vena pumped mana into the ring, the ring began to elongate.

Bena's eyes widened and she gripped the long rod that had changed to a ring with both hands. Then the tip of the rod became blunt and soon became a cylinder shape.

Paah-!

As the mana particles covering the artifact disappeared, its slender figure was revealed.

" hammer?

It was pink in color throughout, and it was a cute shaped hammer. It was similar in length to the ignorant form of a large hammer used on construction boards, but was dwarfed overall.

"It's very light."

Bena shook the hammer back and forth.

Even so, if the whole thing was a lump of iron, it would weigh quite a bit, but it was easy to wield it to see if it had lightening magic on it.

"This is so good!"

Bena smiled happily as if she liked it.

That hammer artifact was kept in a warehouse deep inside the ruins.

I don't know why there was only one of them, but I thought it would be suitable as a weapon for Bena, so I took it.

'It's an unusual hammer.'

There must be some secret hidden there.

It was up to Bena to find it.

"Thank you, Master!"

As Bena tried to hug her, Jamie reached out and pushed her face back.

"Let's go."

Ready to go there.

All wounds from Theberon were also healed.

But from now on, I couldn't lean on the marble of life. Because you spent too much life force today, even a small wound will not be able to heal properly.

As time passes, the orb of recovery will also be recharged, but unfortunately today is the end.

'The good news is that I can use the power of the ruins.'

It's a pity that I can't use the most useful 'blocking ability' on the ground, but there were many other useful functions.

Go.

Yeah.

Jamie and Bena headed to where they felt their energy.

Jamie's expression darkened as the strength drew nearer.

Bena swallowed dry saliva and followed closely behind him.

how far did you walk

Jamie stopped walking.

"Why, why?"

"This is the front."

Although it was covered with bushes, there was a demon egg right in front of it.

Jamie took a step back and, with a nervous expression on her face, cleared the overgrown bushes.

and saw

A huge, disgusting apricot-colored egg with wriggling veins.

A terrible, disgusting energy emanating from it.

"Wow!"

Bena could not stand it and was nauseous.

Although she is a race of the forest, she, who is also a warlock, could not stand the disgusting magic.

However, Jamie was looking at something other than the demon eggs.

" I can't believe it."

A translucent purple curtain around the disgusting demon egg.

Numerous ancient words are written on it, floating in the air.

I could feel it from afar, but seeing it in front of my nose, I couldn't deny it.

As Theberon said, it was really his power.

"Why is my black mana ?"

I approached the front of the veil.

The ancient fish that flowed over the veil like a wave were floating around unorganized.

I read them in turn.

"The dead stretch out their hands over the sea water. One floated in the moonlight dark sky. The black pouring rippling sea starlight."

There were other letters floating around, but the ones that caught my eye were the ones I just said.

The key characters of the ancient language written on the tabernacle were clear.

Jamie slowly raised his hand and took it to the veil.

Black mana fluttered over trembling fingertips. That was the moment I carefully touched the curtain.

[The turbulent black sea. pouring starlight. The dead put their hands on the water. A moonlight in the dark sky. The old man raises his arms and falls into the dark. It will become a monster and will eventually devour even the darkness. It is a monster that covets everything.]

Two black mana began to resonate.

and memories that come to mind.

What you see is a book. What was written on the first page was the phrase I had just recited.

"Huh!"

My head hurt like it was going to break.

Jamie grabbed her head and staggered.

master?!

Vena, who was nauseated, reached for Jamie with bloodshot eyes.

But her voice did not reach Jamie.

Numerous scenes flashed by like a panorama.

The falling bookshelf, the self tearing it apart.

His fists crumpled through the torn paper trembled.

I screamed, but there was no sound. But somehow he seemed to know.

'I promise the distant future. A very distant future.'

I tore all the books and threw them into the sea of night.

The memory stopped there, and Jamie was able to recall the forgotten memory.

; Leviathan

It was a powerful 'magic book' made by Diablo Volfir long ago.
