Chapter 5: Divine Beast (2)

Saint Emak of the Drian religion wrapped the stigma on the back of his right hand with his left hand.

According to High Priest Helm's will, he was doing what he could only do.

Blood and corpses scattered throughout Harmonia for over five years. And the six sacraments Helm installed throughout the kingdom.

Based on that, they summon the most powerful creatures of their parents to this land.

"Father's beast."

He lifted his left hand and raised the stigma on his right hand.

A red light soared high in the sky, and thunderbolts began to fall, covering the entire sky with red clouds.

Six lines traversing the territory of Harmonia, two triangles to be completed, and a hexagonal star created by overlapping two triangles in reverse.

"Your father's child. I, according to the will of Emak, come down to this land!"

Although the offerings used in the rites of advent are still lacking, Helm said it is still sufficient.

I was a little uneasy, but since the High Priest is the de facto leader of the sect, no matter how much a saint, disobeying orders is impossible.

"Basilisk!!"

The red light that rose from the stigma became as thick as blood. The clouds began to spread in a circle, and black light began to pour in.

It was Drian's divinity.

Emma's expression brightened.

From a high place in the distance, the beast of the god Drian is revealing a gigantic figure on the ground.

A long body reaching hundreds of meters, pure white scales covering it, a pair of feathered wings that grew on its back, and finally a dragon-like face.

Its magnificence was less than what their Bibles had written, but it had to be done.

It wasn't even the age of myths, and 50 years' worth of sacrifice would not have been enough to descend in a recorded form.

"This is enough."

The only denominations that are properly prepared will be the Pyro and Zenith churches, which are currently experiencing severe conflict.

In the Pyro Church, an apostle of God appeared, and the Zenith Church almost unified the Eastern Continent.

Other denominations must be quickly making their own preparations.

So, the Drian Church had to come up with a certain number to survive in the collapsing 12 Church system.

The result was a divine beast basilisk.

"Basilisk, please remove from the world all heretics who stand in the way of our denomination!"

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

A cry that seemed to tear the space apart.

Emak burst into laughter when he heard the sound.

* * *

Lennon opened his mouth as he saw the winged snake behind his back that appeared through the red sky.

" What is that?"

Even from a distance, the winged snake, which boasts an enormous size, was slowly descending to the ground as if receiving a blessing from black light.

Despite the distance, an instinctive fear arose.

Lennon felt a cold sweat run down his hand.

It seemed that he wasn't the only one.

Everyone.

Ann was walking backwards, her complexion blue as if she was terrified.

Hera, who had maintained her coolness throughout the whole time, was sweating only this time. The way he clenched his fists was impressive.

So was the Hawks.

The condition was better than the two, but he said with a very reluctant face.

Damn it . What is that snake that even has wings and flies in the sky?"

" Still, I think I bought it thanks to that."

Of the three, Lennon was the best.

Lennon saw members of the Drian Church following them closely.

Enemies who were chasing frantically, led by the berserk monsters, were no longer visible.

More precisely.

"I think it has something to do with that snake, the Drian Church."

"Ok."

The Hawks leapt over the building and looked at the followers of the Drian Church who were chasing them.

All of them were kneeling on the floor and praying to the serpent with their hands clasped together.

"Should I even run away from this gap?"

" It would be difficult to run away."

At that moment, Anne, who had fallen into a coma with extreme fear, regained consciousness and returned to their side.

Still not looking good, Hera asked worriedly.

"Are you okay, Anne?"

"I feel a little dizzy, but I can handle it."

"What does that mean? Do you think it would be difficult to run away?"

The Hawks jumped to the ground and staggered over and pointed to the followers.

"There is only one chance now. I need to make quick contact with my colleagues and leave here."

"Perhaps all of this It's most likely within the scope of that snake.

kid?

It was Lennon who answered instead of Anne.

Lennon glared at the snake with a dissatisfied face and added an explanation.

I don't know if that's a monster they're sacred to, but otherwise, there's no reason for them to suddenly behave like that.

"Aren't you just praying for a monster that you consider sacred? We're usually like that, aren't we?

"It doesn't feel like that. To put it bluntly... ."

Anne swallowed dry saliva and spoke in a worried voice.

"It's most likely because they don't need to chase anymore."

In other words, as long as that appeared, there was no need for the combat unit Violence or ordinary followers.

Hawks had a face he didn't understand.

Hera added an addendum to make it easier to understand.

"I am also a believer in the fire religion, but it is different from the prayers I pray in peacetime. This is the exhibition situation. The opponent is a small number of elite members of the Liberation Army who are no different from enemies. The situation has already become complicated. civil war to continue. A trump card that will end them all."

"You mean that snake?"

Simply put, it was a decisive battle weapon for the Kingdom Army.

Hawks looked at the snake again with a fearful expression on his face.

That was then.

found.

A gust of wind was heard in the air, and something landed next to you.

Lennon raised his mana while being alert to the sudden appearance of someone, and Hera sent Anne, who was not yet in good condition, behind her back and squeezed the staff tightly.

On the other hand, Hawks looked at the faces of the characters who appeared and smiled broadly.

true! And Count?"

"I'm glad you were the first to find it."

Neo looked at the Hawks with a relieved expression on his face.

Then, when I found the two children and Hera next to me, I opened my eyes wide.

"Why are you here ?"

"Do you know them?"

Jin asked Neo with a voice full of vigilance, putting his hand on the handle of the song.

"Sir Welton Jr.'s two pupils and his secretary, Hera Boleno Yang."

"A disciple of Jamie Welton?"

"Who are you?"

Hera, the oldest of the three, came out as the representative and asked Neo.

They had never seen Neo in person, so they didn't know who he was. It was then that he realized his mistake, and Neo apologized and introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you. I am the Neo Fatal of the Kingdom of Harmonia."

"Fateal? You mean that Fatal family?"

"I will guarantee this person's identity. He is the one who supports our Liberation Army both physically and mentally."

When Hera made a long and gloomy face, the Hawks took a step forward and confirmed Neo's identity.

At that moment, Jin, who had been quiet, opened his mouth.

"You have to get out of here. That's an unbearable monster.

"Who are you?"

Lennon pointed at Jin with a bold face, and Jin looked at him for a moment and said.

"Did you say you were Jamie's disciple?"

" Do you know Master?"

"I just found out."

"I, my master Where is Master?"

Anne, who was behind Hera, came forward and asked with a troubled face.

As long as the Basilisk existed in the sky, her condition was unlikely to improve.

It was an unavoidable phenomenon because it was the lowest level.

Jin looked at Anne and pointed in the direction of the basilisk.

"I'll be right where that giant snake is."

"Then I need help!"

The Hawks grabbed Lennon's collar and lifted him up as Lennon was about to run towards him, startled.

"Leave this! I have to help Master!"

"No matter how much Master you are, you can't do that kind of monster alone ."

Perhaps Anne also had the same thoughts as Lennon, so she tried to go in the direction where the basilisk had descended.

But at Hera's words, the two had no choice but to stop.

"It will only get in the way."

" ."

" ."

The two looked back at her at Hera's chilling glance.

Hera said, hugging the two softly.

"So am I. It won't help the elder. Rather, it is more likely to be a burden. If there is nothing you can do, you should focus on surviving right now. And you both know. Who are the two masters?"

Anne and Lennon did not respond to Hera's words, but their expressions were as determined as before.

Hera gave a rare smile and stroked the heads of both of them.

Jin muttered, looking at him silently.

"Jamie Wellton has a good secretary."

Yes?

no. Anyway, surviving and escaping from this place should be the number one priority."

Okay.

The Hawks replied.

Jin ordered such Hawks.

"So, Hawks. You are responsible and keep the interest."

" teacher?

Hawks was Jean's disciple.

He taught him how to handle mana, and how to use hammers and nails as weapons.

Far from the usual priestly relationship, at least the Hawks truly believed and followed him.

"What are you going to do, Master?"

"I should help."

"But I can't afford it !"

"If two."

Jin recalled Jamie's skills.

Jamie, who had been fighting with a certain amount of leeway against the Sword Master, the natural enemy of the wizard, was a difficult opponent to guarantee victory even if he did his best.

If we join forces with such a person, maybe it will be worth doing even with that seemingly unanswered monster?

"Gather all the others and get as far away from the capital as possible. just in case.

true. Are you okay?"

"You only think about surviving."

In response to Neo's worried question, Jin answered with a firm tone and pulled out the curve halfway.

"In that way, we will be able to take responsibility for the future of this country."

true!

His voice didn't reach.

Jin has already disappeared with the moonlight.

Hawks frowned as he saw his master leave, but there was no time for that.

"While my master and your master work together to stop that monster, we must somehow struggle to survive."

" Good.

"Then we must find Mr. Hawks' comrades."

"It won't be difficult."

Since there was no further pursuit, there was a high possibility that his colleagues were floating somewhere.

Hawks put Neo on his back.

"Ho, Hawks!"

It's noisy. I don't have time to accept murmuring right now. Everyone follow me!"

time is running out

The five began to wander around looking for Hawks' comrades.

* * *

Jamie muttered as she watched the descending basilisk.

"It's small."

During Diablo Volfir, Jamie had several fights with it.

A giant winged snake that Drian loved very much.

The petrified rays from his mouth were quite annoying.

Also, how big was it, it was slightly smaller than the Behemoth in its prime.

But now?

"You're only doing rat tails, aren't you?"

It was too big to be a rat's tail, but Jamie, who knew his original form, had no choice but to feel that way.

Even now, it looked hundreds of meters tall, but back then it was hard to figure out the number. The expression that it was just a mountain range was appropriate.

He used to fight hard with Behemoth, but now Behemoth must have been eating an apple from afar.

'Useless child.'

Suddenly, the thought of Behemoth made me sigh.

I don't know if I'm doing the job well.

At that moment, the basilisk widened and opened its huge, dragon-like snout.

"How are you?"

Gray particles gather in the mouth.

Jamie clicked his tongue.

It looked like he was going to spit out a petrified beam.

It was one of the annoying technologies in the past, and no matter how small it is, it will be powerful enough to make this land uninhabitable.

On the other hand, his strength is still at the same level as when compared to his heyday.

"He deserved confidence."

Drian's most cherished divine beast, even though he was in a very weak state, he thought of descending.

Beyond Avalon in his left hand and Scud in his right.

Jamie took a deep breath.

"If something like that fell to the ground, the plan itself would collapse."

Seldam will make an ally of a new nation to be established on this land. So I was thinking of getting a little help in the future war.

He had no intention of turning the capital of such a place into petrification.

If so, you need to stop that.

"Something easy."

It's also sad when hardships and trials go away.

However, sometimes the things I want to fall into are hardships and trials.

The basilisk vomited a beam of petrification towards the ground.

Gray energy falls in a straight line.

"Write I can't stop it at the current level.

A sigh came out.

Still, whenever I used my power, it put a lot of strain on my body, and I rolled the power within the limits I set.

But now, it seemed like he would be petrified if he did.

It's better to put a strain on the body, but it was the messenger that made the body stronger than ever.

Jamie activated all mana cores in her body.

All of his mana began to rotate at a high speed, riding on gi and blood.

"I'm going to kill you again."

A purple dot appeared on his forehead.

The dots quickly spread all over the face, forming a strange-shaped tattoo that spread all over the body.

thud!!!

Mana, which had been suppressed until now, spurted out and vibrated the atmosphere once.

Jamie's eyes were completely dyed purple.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!"

highest.

Jamie, standing at the entrance, crossed the sword and the staff.

there was light
