Chapter 818

Episode 818

Knot(5)

I once thought about it when I was building a reputation in the name of fastness.

Even though they are aware of the power gap, the opponents resist with all their might and ignite their fighting spirit.

Even in a hopeless situation where there is no way out, the enemies are trying to find a gap and find a weak point.

Why do they resist so desperately and burn with passion for life?

Nevertheless, like a moth to fire, it constantly approaches Lennok and oxidizes it.

There was a time when Lennok had to risk his life to be able to picture tomorrow, so he thought he understood that feeling, but he was mistaken.

It was only after losing all his strength and standing in front of Kroken that Lennok was able to understand how they felt.

Fighting because you think you can win is not because you believe you can survive.

This time to just open your eyes, breathe, think, and worry is so precious.

Because I don’t have enough room left to move while envisioning the future.

In the face of this monster, who is more fearful and ferocious than anyone else, I realize the instinct for life that I had temporarily forgotten.

I want to live.

Realizing that the hope he first had in this world has not yet faded within Lennok himself.

Lennok braced himself and whipped his broken body.

Coo coo coo!!

The shape of a pure white sanctuary shining beneath your feet.

The Holy Spirit magic that emanates from Kashuin occupies the space and restores Lennok’s body in real time.

The image of Kroken standing with his arms crossed in the middle of the slowly collapsing memorial tower, looking at Lennoc with amusement.

A new type that slowly wags its tail, covering its entire body with the remains of the military spirit it tore apart and the fog of its spiritual body.

Even from dozens of meters away, his bright yellow pupils shine eerily.

The moment when Lennok’s magical eye rotated and visualized a red and blue realm of possibility, illuminating the gap in Kroken.

“...Haha.”

I smiled bitterly after seeing that all the space that existed around Kroken had turned from red to black and was dead and sinking.

Measuring the gap and calculating the distance against that monster is completely meaningless.

The moment you enter that pitch-black area, the only thing that exists is a future of defeat that leads directly to death.

From now on, we must forcefully bridge that gap and achieve meaningful results from Kroken.

“Kashin. “Get ready.”

Lennok said, taking out a huge silver-shining papyrus from within his arms.

“You must take charge of the vanguard. “Move the sanctuary forward to expand the battlefield.”

[....]

I quickly organize the composition, recalling the memories of the time I fought Kroken.

During the mobile fortress, the goal was to use Felix as the vanguard and hit the target with high-fire power techniques.

He vowed not to repeat the same mistake, but when the situation became this way, what had to be done was decided.

“The opponent is a monster who has reached the peak of hand-to-hand combat. “Rather than confronting it head on, try to hold out as much as possible.”

[Do not command me, wizard.]

Archangel turned his gaze with an annoyed expression and glared at Lennok.

At the same time, the magic power that burst from Kashuin’s body strongly enveloped Lennok.

Tduduk!!

[He would have promised to call me only for his work. I also believed in him and entrusted myself to you.]

“....”

[Are you betraying my trust that you endured day after day in a cramped artifact like this?]

His tone of voice was so furious that it was hard to believe that he was standing there engulfed in holy magic and brilliance.

However, the archangel’s reaction was not completely incomprehensible.

Even though I encountered Dorae several times in the Infinite Sanctuary, the reason I woke up the archangel was not to do the cult leader’s work, but to deal with the military orders of the Requiem.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Kashuin, who had raised his power by declaring a sanctuary, felt not only a sense of despair but also a sense of betrayal.

However, even though Lennok saw Kashuin glaring at him, he was not embarrassed and calmly asked back.

“That’s a funny thing to say. “Do you think I’m lying?”

[Or what?]

Rennok rubbed the stigma engraved on his right wrist.

“The reason why you were called in with such power now. “I guess you still don’t understand.”

[....]

The authority of a priest transferred by the priestess Seina Naidri.

Although it may not be as good as what her priestess would handle directly, it is her favor that she risked her own soul to deliver.

Lennok used this stigma to fully awaken Kashuin’s existence and summon him to this place.

Rather, he knew that he could act proudly against Kashuin.

“This moment itself is proof that the promise was kept. “If I wasn’t chasing the cult leader’s traces, would I have been able to obtain this authority and wake you up?”

[...that.]

Lennok glared at Kashuin with cold eyes.

“If you rebel like this one more time, I will treat the agreement as never having happened. Do you understand?”

The subjugation of Kashuin to the Archangel’s compassion was not a relationship formed by a contract of equals.

Lennok has already fought the Archangel and trampled on his soul and body. He is just harvesting that existence and using it up.

In the process, it’s okay to listen to Kashuin’s wishes, but he shouldn’t forget his own situation.

Putting down Kashuin by asserting justifiable cause and effect as he is doing now also has implications for maximizing his ability.

“If you understand, move the sanctuary immediately. “What I have to do from now on is a gamble that I cannot even attempt without risking my life.”

[...good night.]

Kashuin slowly turned his back, looking like he was finally convinced.

Kashuin said, looking at Kroken standing in the distance and spreading his hands.

[It was clearly a brand imbued with His will that called me. You are right. Let’s cooperate this time.]

Scream!!

At that moment, a spear and a sword were held in both of Kashuin’s hands at the same time.

The pure white wings came off as if twisted and turned into the shape of a real blade on the spot.

Kashuin steps forward, spreading his wings wide and grasping his spear and sword with both hands.

The archangel, whose legs are well over 2 meters tall, and the equally gigantic Croken face each other in the center of the tower.

Kroken laughed at the elongated figure of Kashuin, which was so out of proportion to the human body.

“You brought in a disobedient dog while I wasn’t seeing you. “It’s really believable to confront the owner without even knowing him.”

[dog? Am I a dog?]

“Then you don’t think so?”

Kroken’s mouth twisted cruelly.

“The only thing you can do is bark and whine without knowing the topic... I guess it means that your situation is not easy enough to use something like this as a weapon.”

Crunchy!!

Crocken said, slowly curling his fist.

“Look carefully. “I’ll show you how useless it is to be a tool that doesn’t listen to what you’re told.”

“I have a different opinion on that.”

Lennok muttered that and slowly opened the papyrus he was holding.

“It is the job of a magician to change the situation by using whatever is available.”

Wow!!

The magic circle engraved on the papyrus, which was enough to cover the entire body, glowed dazzlingly.

The magic circle mixed with the power of the sanctuary and began to be absorbed into Lennok’s body.

Lennok stood up, feeling a strange floating sensation, as if magic power was pouring into his entire body.

Papyrus Argenteus acquired from Jindun’s Cradle. A magical device that can be used to store spells and magical power.

Normally, I use it to chant the flashing spells that I have saved in advance one by one and then cast them right away.

The true value of Papyrus Argenteus lies in its explosive power that instantly transforms stored magical energy into real power.

It is one of the most effective hand cards owned by Lennok, and it is the Ascendant’s Legacy that was saved without being used even during the Requiem’s annihilation.

Coo coo coo!!!

The blood-covered body is raised with the power of the Sanctuary and the magic power of Papyrus is filled into it.

The intangible curses bound to Kroken’s body gradually lose their binding power and are released.

It is not about directly digging into Kroken’s original image, but about breaking the curse that binds him and taking a peek inside.

Beyond the bonds of the disintegrating curse, we contemplate Croken’s inner self with transcendent intuition.

The moment Lennok paused as he recognized a gigantic, inexplicable presence beyond him.

“No, that won’t work.”

A small, pitch-black sphere emerged from Kroken’s hand.

Gooooo...!!

Just by clenching and opening my fist, it seems as if all space and time in the area are being pulled in around Kroken.

An unrealistic miracle that gathers all the manpower in the vicinity and creates a sphere of density with just a simple grip.

Kugwagwagwagwa!!!

The moment when the sphere, which was growing explosively by consuming all the substances and magic around it, came into contact with the Ouroboros’ law formation.

The sphere of gravity could not overcome the image of the creation magic and disintegrated and disappeared on the spot.

“...!!!”

The aftereffects caused Lennok’s body to fall backwards, but he was unable to raise his body and recalled his reaction.

A mental imager based on the intention that Kroken actually shows for the first time.

However, it was not a technique used to kill Lennok or repel the attack.

In order to prevent Ouroboros’ power from fully functioning, Kroken created a sphere of attraction and threw it instead.

In fact, it is no different from an acknowledgment that the Ouroboros power activated by Lennoc was effective-

Wow!!

Before I could even think properly, Kroken’s body accelerated at an incredible speed.

He trampled and smashed Kashuin’s new form, and instantly trampled Lennok’s body and threw it to the ground.

“...!!”

“It is the power to dismantle and disintegrate laws. Was that your creation magic?”

The crocodile giant asked in surprise, looking down at Lennoc, who was unable to even scream and clenched his teeth.

“He really is a very reckless guy. “Are you targeting the curse on my body, not me from the beginning?”

“Cough...!!”

However, even as Lennoc squirmed under Croken’s feet, he gritted his teeth and raised his gaze.

“You want to see the answer... right?”

“....”

The magnetic field that radiates all possibilities and Ouroboros that absorbs and converges the laws.

Both powers that Lennoc gained by completing and transcending the hierarchy are part of the answer he hopes for.

It is a process that hopes to become the ending itself.

“It’s a bias in the process of drawing the answer... Yes, I admit it.”

Cro Ken chuckled and nodded his head.

“The magic you just showed was worth it. But that is not a wish that must be fulfilled now.”

“Why?”

Lennok asked.

Even though he was completely trampled and trampled, Lennok’s eyes were filled with strange confidence as he looked up at the giant.

“Is there a reason you have to react so sensitively to the curse that is suffocating your body?”

Kroken seemed to be lost in thought for a moment and answered quietly.

“It’s natural for paths to change after reaching one point, baby.”

“....”

“The leader stood in front of him and the leader crossed over. “For those who are qualified, the situation will be no different.”

“...you are?”

“Sometimes.”

Kroken chuckled at Lennok’s words.

“Some people are born in front of goodness... You can only survive if you take a step back.”

“....”

What on earth does that mean?

Kroken’s quiet reply was not an answer.

That moment when I was desperately trying to figure out what it meant.

“It’s time.”

Croken grabbed the nape of Lennok’s neck, which was twitching helplessly, and began to drag his body.

“What are you trying to do...?”

Kwaang!!

As soon as he heard Lennok’s words, Croken lightly kicked Lennok in the stomach with his tail.

“Don’t talk back.”

“...!!”

A powerful shock that shakes the brain enough to penetrate the effects of painkillers.

If you applied the right force, it wouldn’t be surprising if Lennok’s body exploded on the spot.

Croken, who was walking with Lennok’s limp body, throws Lennok out of the violently shaking tower.

Lennok’s new form falls out of the tower helplessly on the spot along with the spirit body of Oris, which was hanging on the magic thread.

“...!!!”

The moment when Lennok struggled to raise his head even as he fell due to that incomprehensible action.

“I told you that a tool that doesn’t listen is useless.”

Croken, standing at the edge of the tower, looked down at Lennok and said.

“I’ll teach you how to use those tools from now on.”

“...what?”

At that moment, the crocodile giant’s massive body shattered the steps of the memorial tower and began to soar at incredible speed.

Kugwagwagwagwagwa!!!!

Every time Kroken’s new form soars onto the tower, the stairs of the tower explode and crash down.

In the aftermath, the height of the shaking tower gradually decreases and begins to collapse.

By simply jumping a few times, the new version of the Crocodile Giant breaks the speed of sound.

With an enormous sonic boom, it became a living storm and immediately headed to the top of the tower.

Kwaaaa!!

Croken’s new form rose hundreds of meters in the air, with the remains of the tower wrapped around its body.

It swings its tail, which is thick and strong like a rebar, and hovers over the ground, balancing perfectly in the air.

The moment when Kroken, who was looking at the shaking memorial tower with bright yellow reptile pupils, stretched out one hand to the sky.

Dismissal!!

From beyond the dark cloudy sky, a black, twisted ray of light fell into Croken’s hand.

It’s going to fall out quickly...!!

The black brilliance distorted in Kroken’s hand and soon took the form of a huge hammer.

The moment when Lennok realized that the hammer was an artifact that had previously contained the magic power of arrival.

Croken’s new form, holding the hammer, flashed and rotated on the spot.

A single shot in which the hammer grasped is swung toward the ground without any leap, preparation or warm-up.

However, at that moment, the immeasurable power that exploded around Kroken came into contact with that intention for the first time and transformed into a gigantic pillar of light.

It became a huge pillar of light connecting the ground and the sky, crushing the entire memorial tower.

Kwaaaa!!!

The memorial tower, which is hundreds of meters high, collapses near the top, crushing all its remains and exploding.

The stairs of the tower are shaking after losing the Heroic Spirit of the Requiem Pavilion. The remnants of the military order that perished within it.

Kroken’s slash that gathers them all together and crushes them.

The fruit of a night trip. Bridge of failed souls.

The huge cenotaph that had guarded the center of Yorta for a long time is collapsing due to the decision of just one person.

Kwagwagwagwa!!!

Even Lennok, who was falling from the bottom of the tower, was caught in the aftermath and bounced in the opposite direction and began to fall toward the ground.

“....”

With Oris’ spiritual body hanging on the end of the magician, Lennok remained blank.

I was watching the hotbed of destruction that Croken Asillus had created with all his heart.
