Chapter 32: Sacrifice (3)

"You must not be late."

A man with a deep hood was heading somewhere with a white horse and several knights.

The blonde knight who appeared to be a lieutenant said to the man.

"Coming soon."

What a relief. I can't let them do what they want.

The man's golden eyes twinkled.

how far did it go

One of the knights said, pointing somewhere.

"It's starting to show."

A castle in the distance began to appear faintly.

At the top of the castle, several flags of different shapes were fluttered and black smoke was rising into the sky.

The war seemed to be in full swing.

"Is there a war already? I need to speed up."

"Is there anyone?"

The man answered the blonde knight's question.

"For sure."

"Then this time ."

Yes. This time it is. ????????!"

The man kicked the white horse's waist and speeded up.

The knights quickly followed.

* * *

The back end never breaks.

That's why he was able to withstand the Dimension Charm that could cut everything.

Crion, with his blade-like legs into the ground, pushed Earl Welton backwards with all his might.

The Count's body flew backwards helplessly at the power beyond imagination.

"Welton!"

Beiryl appeared like the wind and grabbed him by the back, but Kryon, who suddenly appeared above their heads, laughed, revealing his ugly teeth.

"Annoying things! All disappear!"

[Causality Reversal]

Currently, Krion is a three-sword type, including both legs.

More results he could produce, this time he could definitely see.

'die. Earl Wellton!'

The third holy object of the Zenith Church, 'Ismenios'.

It was a holy thing that could 'completely' descend on the body with the power of Ismenios, the divine beast of Zenith.

In return, he had to dedicate a great lifespan, but Kryon, who had no regrets about his life, did not pay much attention to it.

Rather, it didn't matter if he died as long as he could get revenge on those who made his 5 years a hell.

In fact, every attack is a match.

Earl Wellton noticed Creon's intentions.

'If you leave it like this, Beiryl will also suffer.'

At least one ally's death should be reduced.

Earl Welton, who had made a decision, removed Beiryl's fingers from behind as if hugging him from behind.

"What are you doing?!"

"Live, Beiryl."

He twisted and pushed Beiryl's body away with his feet.

It was so sudden that Beiryl reached out, but couldn't even grasp the hem of Earl Wellton's robe.

No!

Hearing Beiril's cry, the Count put everything he had in Pragarach.

I could feel the flow of time and space as if a causal reversal was about to be triggered soon.

The blade that would cut off his own limb was hidden there.

This one cannot be stopped by Dimensional Charm.

It was because Kryon changed his monster-like appearance and his abilities increased significantly.

However, even then, I did not intend to be easily beaten.

'At least I will go to the underworld with you.'

[Extreme tragedy]

Once more.

He puts his whole life into one sword.

-Argeno. Always keep in mind that Welton's sword is the strongest in the world.

Father Chervil's voice came from deep in his heart.

Earl Wellton replied with a smile.

'Yes, Father.'

Welton's sword is the strongest.

So, no matter who the opponent is, I have no intention of breaking the strongest sword.

The Count exclaimed with all his might.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!"

[chaos]

The final misunderstanding unfolded.

The dimensional charm wrapped around the blade was intertwined with the Welton-style swordsmanship, and it delivered the strongest blow for the last time.

Creon looked at it and smiled brightly.

"That's great, Welton! But you can't stop it or avoid it! Ha ha ha ha ha!!"

[Power: Causal Reversal]

[Death confirmed]

death is coming

Earl Wellton faced a blade that pierces the soul.

Even if you fall here, you will never be ashamed to decorate the end.

That was the moment.

In an urgent situation with his life at stake, Wellton recalled memories of the past.

When I first met Sears.

- For the first time in my life, I met a woman I fell in love with at first sight.

when I proposed to her.

- My heart trembled more than when I was tested by my father.

when you got married.

- It felt like an empty half.

When my eldest son, Jamie, was first born.

- It was as if he had everything in the world.

When Jamie first called himself Dad.

- I cried. He shed tears in vain.

When Jamie started walking on her own.

- was rude. He was more proud than anyone else.

when my daughter was born.

- He was a small and precious child. The universe within me was completed with Sarah.

When your family gathers together to eat.

- It was a happy thing to dine with the family who loved him and loved him.

When Jamie said he was going to the world of magic.

- To be honest, I was very worried. I wished Jamie wouldn't be late, but I didn't do it for my son's sake.

When I heard that my son did a great job there.

- He's my son. okay. Jamie boasted to everyone that he was my son.

When Sarah first grabbed the sword.

- From son to daughter. I couldn't help but feel happy. Still, education is tough.

When my wife and I went on a trip alone.

- After a long time, I was freed from my children, and I was with the person I loved. I asked to go again next time.

'I'm sorry, Sears. It seems that the trip will have to be postponed until later.'

Argeno remembered his wife's shimmering face.

blood spurted out

No pain was felt.

He moved forward.

I heard someone call from behind, but there was no time to look back.

They simply run towards the enemy with their resolve again.

'I am a knight and owner of the Welton family, Argeno Welton. I have no regrets.'

Born as a man, he married a beautiful woman, and had a proud son and a cute daughter.

It would be a lie if it said no regrets.

I want to see my children grow up and get married, and I want to see the jokes of my grandchildren.

In his later years, he traveled the world with Sears, and in the end, he wanted to face the end with a smile in front of his children.

I know it's all greed.

So, Argeno will give his life here only for the future of his wife and children.

"I will surely kill you, Kryon!!"

Fragarach cut through the space and quickly narrowed the distance with Kryon.

Even in the real-time bloody situation, he did not slow down in the slightest.

it's a kick

It's a meaningless rant.

why?

Kryon couldn't understand.

Why on earth do you come towards yourself with such a face?

It would be easier for me to just die.

I do not know.

why are you doing it like that

Krion gave up thinking.

"Just die."

no. The Count must not die yet."

That was then.

An unfamiliar voice was heard, and at the same time, something Kryon couldn't see began to appear.

* * *

Creon asked with a bewildered tone toward the one that appeared in front of him.

"Yes, why are you?"

It was Jamie Welton.

He who would have disappeared to the battlefield of Infinity with Vincent suddenly appeared in front of him.

Krion looked at him blankly for a moment, then shouted with a face like a thug.

"I will kill you, Jamie Welton!!"

I don't know why he's here, but whatever it was, Jamie Welton appeared in front of him.

Even if he ripped and killed, his enemy, who was insignificant, appeared to be killed.

If that's the case, it's common sense to tear it to death!

"Go to hell!"

Krion cut Jamie in a straight line with Durandal.

and realized

" fake?

Jamie's figure was scattered in the air.

Kryon, feeling that something was wrong, roused his energy and blew away all that had been dazzling him.

Then he found an old man standing in front of him.

You ."

"Cool."

The old man, with his arms outstretched, with blood dripping from his chest, grinned hard.

"How was it, the illusion I showed you? It's my proud magical subjection that I've been honing for decades.

At Linmer's words, Krion looked around.

Earl Wellton was nowhere to be seen.

Beiryl was nowhere to be seen.

Where have those two gone?

"Is it yours?"

"The Count still has a lot of work to do . I changed my location and coordinates. Cool!"

Rinmull staggered and vomited blood, then knelt down on one knee.

As Kryon swung his sword towards the illusion, part of the slash reached his chest.

Seeing that the mana barrier was slashed like tofu even after only one swing, it was indeed a monster.

Rinmer said with a tired face.

"Rather than a young Count Wouldn't it be better for me to sacrifice?

It was good to come here with an unknown sense of incongruity.

If he hadn't come here, Earl Wellton would have been struck by his sword.

Even now, the injuries were quite large, but as long as their lives were saved, that was enough.

The Count may live.

"You bastard like this!"

Kryon, unable to contain his anger, swung his sword, and a terrifying slash flew towards Rinmer.

That can't be stopped.

'count. I will make the sacrifices for the future.'

You cannot escape death.

If so, I'll eat at least one room and leave.

Don't make fun of the 8th class Archmage.

Linmer ran out of all the mana he had accumulated so far.

I haven't played and ate in 5 years.

He focused everything on his left hand.

Then, with his teeth sharp enough to break, he fired that power in the form of a beam towards the slash.

Aww!!!

A dark red beam from his left hand pushed Kryon's slash away and flew towards him.

Creon looked at it and said.

"The joke is ."

A causal reversal has been triggered.

"Die and fall, old man."

The rays were scattered into the air.

It was the mana that he had accumulated throughout his life, but even the collar of Krion could not pass.

Krion quickly closed the distance and grabbed Rinmer's face.

"Uh-huh!"

"I don't have time for a bug like you!"

With those words, Durandal pierced Linmer's chest.

Rinmer's eyes widened.

Kryon, who drew his sword, threw Rinmer to the side as if he was no longer interested, and started looking for Earl Welton and Beiryl.

"Do you know that if I hide, I won't be able to find you?"

Kryon's physical ability, which had the power of the divine beast Ismenios, was already close to 'transcendence'.

He ran so fast that he couldn't see them and started looking for the two of them.

'This time, I will kill you at once.'

I won't give them time to resist.

I'll drop the heads of both of them on the floor before they even come to their senses.

That was the prerequisite for the Zenith Church to win this war.

'As long as the spiral of the battlefield has come to a conclusion, you can't escape.'

It's just delayed a bit.

Kryon's spirit was wide enough to cover the battlefield.

To him with the power of the divine beast, this was nothing.

And I was able to find two huge auras not far away.

"I'm just a mouse in front of a cat."

Krion made both legs look like springs and then jumped a great distance at once.

Its speed broke through the speed of sound, causing the air layer to collapse several times, causing a roar.

"Stand there, you scum!"

Creon found Beiryl running with Earl Welton on his back in the distance.

When I asked why I couldn't go this far, Earl Wellton seemed unconscious.

Beiryl glanced behind him, and used his powers to speed up.

But, yes, it was the wind.

bang! Kwaang!!

After breaking through the speed of sound again, Krion passed Beiryl at once, blocking his way.

"Where are you going, Beiryl?"

"ね Rinmer-sama, have you been hurt?"

Sure. Dealing with a dying old man like that is an instant. And, I will deal with you in an instant."

I didn't want to drag it out any more.

Creon drew a hideous smile and flicked the cube jewel that existed instead of the heart with his finger.

Then, energy began to flow through his body.

"It was a tough affair. Stop it, you worm."

"I'm not going to take it easy."

Beiryl carefully set the Earl of Wellton down and took hold of the sword.

At the same time, his sword was broken in half.

Beiryl's eyes widened.

"You said It will be dealt with in no time."

Crion, who appeared in front of him at an invisible speed, swung his Durangdal with a cruel expression.

neck is cut off

[Law of Judgment]

"Guard the Lamb."

Woo-!!

A golden light fell from the sky.

Kryon felt a sense of crisis and stepped back.

Light wrapped around Beiryl and Earl Wellton.

It wasn't just that.

A golden light also fell from where Linmer fell in the distance.

Kryon frowned at the unexpected situation.

"What else?!"

Why do you keep getting interrupted?

Annoyed, Kryon didn't mind the light and tried to run again.

"Wow, calm down. You are not a beast."

[Sword of Judgment]

A man wearing a cloak of light appeared in front of him and stopped him.

"Long time no see."

The Paladin, Lars, who appeared with her blonde hair fluttering, said to Kryon with a smile.

"It's been 5 years since I've seen you, has your appearance changed significantly?"

you ."

And Kryon, who recognized Lars, couldn't help but be embarrassed.

Why is the Pyro priest here?

But apart from that, the anger that rose to the top of his head was unbearable.

Kryon was about to shout with his face contorted like a demon, but a thought suddenly came to his mind and his eyes widened.

no way ."

okay. Every year."

Dump, Dump-!

A huge force appeared that seemed to crush the entire space.

right behind it too.

Kryon felt that something was seriously wrong and slowly turned his head.

There stood a man with brown hair, a little too young to be a young man and quite mature for a boy.

Golden light was flowing through his eyes, and the same color of the divine was overflowing around him.

Ricky, the 'Apostle of the Pyro Goddess,' said with an angry face.

"From now on, I will deal with you. Because grudge is enough."

Krion thought.

'Spiral of the Battlefield' is wrong again.
