Duke, Please Repent! chapter 209

40. The Duke and the Disappearance Case (14)

'Oh, it's very noisy! You can't just close the door... .'

Due to the narrow passage, the only place to escape when an attack came was the basement behind.

There's no one screaming to be quiet right now when it's buzzing like that, so there's no one who can be called a watcher.

is the shape

'Do it. I was planning to pretend to be free to exchange opinions and drive public opinion, isn't it?'

It is only a threat to the end when the person who threatens opens his mouth.

But what if it was brought up by someone in the same situation?

Naturally, they sympathize, and at some point they mistakenly believe that the other person's words are their own.

'Maybe I needed someone who could shift the blame when I was wrong'.'

just like right now.

Now, inside, they are full of clamors to slander a person called 'Lak' and to shift all responsibility to him.

'Ugly people.'

Let's take it as comforting that we don't have to worry about being attacked from behind right now.

"Even though I gave you this chance How foolish you are to choose punishment over Kwonju!"

"Whether it's Kwonju or Beolju, it's the same alcohol that you get drunk if you drink a lot."

As long as you take what others give you and drink it, you will not be able to get away with it.

At the very least, if you express your intention to refuse, you will have a chance to avoid it.

Kikkilkil, you will regret it.

Other than that, how come there are so many stereotypical villains?

Not to mention the laughter, from talking about the plan, to the comments spit out after recommending to fall on the side of justice and rejecting it!

He was drawing the perfect trinity.

"Who's going to say it? Even now, on your knees and begging for a good life Crab "

The evil monkey raised the corners of his mouth and laughed uncomfortably.

It was an ominous smile.

The same goes for Eugenes who sensed it. She let go of the bowstring she was pulling taut.

At the same time, the bastard snapped his finger.

The arrow pierced the air and went up the long stairs in the blink of an eye, but was blocked by a translucent black shield.

all.

As if he knew that his attack would be blocked, Euges immediately drew a new arrow and put it on the pole and summoned the spirit.

'Wait a minute, there's no way magic can come out just by tapping your finger, right?'

I wasn't the only one noticing it, but there must have been more demons behind the wall.

Then the question arises again.

'What's the meaning of the act of snapping your finger a while ago... .'

- Kwagwang! Whoops!

The floor shook, and stone dust fell from the top of his head.

What, what?! Earthquake magic?

It's gunpowder.

Serpens pulled me back from staggering and made me lean on myself, calmly answering.

It takes a long time to improvise a large-scale magic. In the meantime, some variables may arise.

However, if the magic circle had been installed in advance, we would have noticed.

'It either didn't come down like it is now, or it must have been dismantled.'

The moment you want it, the scope you want it to be. It seems that gunpowder is installed to cause an explosion with the desired destructive power.

Unlike magic circles, which cost money just to install, there is an advantage that gunpowder can be dug up again if not used, so I put my mind to it in many ways.

No, that's not what's important! You look like you're buried alive, so why are you so calm...

- Kwaang!!

One quack! Wow!

Before the words could be finished properly, there was a bigger vibration than before.

This time, it was an explosion that happened right before my eyes.

When the fireballs created by the evil monkey collided with the blue arrows containing the energy of water that Euges fired, there was a thunderous roar.

The water vapor that rose as fire and water met was scattered in a huge shock wave.

If Serpens support you from behind

If I hadn't, I would have fallen to the floor from that shock wave.

Okay, calm down. Didn't I tell you before? I'll never let you die.

Because of the deafening noise, I could hear Serpens's voice speaking right in my ear.

As if talking from far away. It sounded so faint.

Can't you hear my voice?

His breath tickling my auricle and his firm hand on my shoulder. A solid body against the back.

If it wasn't for those things, I would have been flustered thinking I was separated from Serpence.

Oh, no. I can hear you. I'm a little deaf for a moment... But is it okay to stand still?

In the meantime, minor vibrations and loud noises continued.

The only way out is the demon tightly shut.

Even if Eugenes fires arrows in a row, there seems to be no sign of piercing through the two of them in a deadly way to cast spells one after the other.

If possible, I want you to know my hard work.

Yes?

Come to think of it, there is nothing falling from the top of my head except for a small drop of stone dust at first, as far as I can feel the vibrations continuously.

I lifted my head and looked up at the ceiling. A veil of light was spread out there.

It is a protective barrier made with divine power.

And beyond the barrier, piles of cracked stones were piled up.

The range is too wide, and the gunpowder

When they fall, they even shoot magic.1,

Serpence muttered in a low voice, as if chewing.

The wide range would mean including the basement at the back.

He was able to withstand the weight of the ceiling, which was made especially thick for sound insulation, and was even blocking all kinds of magical attacks.

"Now, how do you do that?!"

Eugenes asked, pulling the string bow for each word.

The arrows I put in the quiver are already gone

He couldn't even take out the arrows in the subspace pocket, so he was shooting the arrows of the spirit that had condensed the power of the spirits.

If you look closely, you can see that her two legs were nailed to the floor from her ankles to her neck.

This is to avoid being pushed out by shock waves due to the extremely light weight of an elf.

Unlike me, who leaned on Serpens, she was holding on with pure strength.

"There was a great commotion, so if you wait, the guards belonging to the nearby denomination or estate will come.

It will be good.

"Like this, hold on are you sleeping?!"

you . Please hold on to the authors so they don't run away.

Hearing his words, I saw that the evil bastard was quite nervous... , paper .

'I can't see anything!'

In front of my eyes, something flew, exploded, the floor vibrated, and a strong shock wave swept away my body.

In the midst of this, how can I see what kind of expression the person up there is making?

But why is Serpens like that?

I know well what you said.

If Eugenes didn't react, and Serpens' Holy Barrier covered the front, they would have run away without looking back.

However, in the current situation, it is a different story.

'The moment they give up their attack and try to pull themselves out, Eugenes will be right behind them.'

Even if the attack on the ceiling stops now and the burden on Serpens is reduced, the result is the same.

When he has enough energy, he jumps over me and Eugene and swings his sword at the demons.

will put

Wait! Serpence...

...But you can't just let the basement collapse and let them die.

Serpens raised his noble will with a desperate voice.

The depths of my heart became silent.

Because of those cowardly people... .

If you ignore them, you will fall victim to the devil worshipers.

Serpens whispered in my ear.

It was a small voice that could not be heard by others, buried in all kinds of riots.

Yes?

Isn't everyone here?

Again he whispered in a small voice.

The Serpensian interpreter spun violently and analyzed his words.

It was said that if there were rumors that they had deliberately turned away from them to hide their past while being able to save them, it would be a bigger problem.

I'd rather make a debt of my heart

It was calculated that it would be beneficial to keep them from opening their mouths, or to make them deeply repent of their sins and praise Serpens as saints.

'Seeing you roll your head, you seem to have come to your senses.'

That's unfortunate.

So, let's move on to that issue... .

"Can you two hold out?"

Ummm...there are a lot of people who attack from above, but they aren't that strong. Should I say it's over? I use only one simple explosion magic.

go .

,,Yes?

If it was such a mediocre skill, it would have been difficult to hide it properly...

Ah! Is it an instant?!

These guys started appearing in the mid-to-late half of [Master of the Holy Sword].

They were originally ordinary believers who could not use magic, and by receiving a reagent developed by the demons, they were able to use black magic temporarily.

only.

No mana accumulated, instead

The downside is that it comes with a great risk of consuming blood and life.'

Usually, extremely diluted reagents are administered to teach only one or two simple magic tricks. To feel only a small amount of anemia.

And just before entering the actual battle, a real drug mixed with a stimulant that paralyzes this castle is handed over.

'Then what... , unaware that he is dying, he is intoxicated with excessive power, and he dies by blasting magic until his vitality is exhausted or the medicinal effect is over.'

Of course, the effect is very long. The vitality of ordinary people far exceeds

as high as possible.

"After brainwashing "

Serpens groaned and clicked his tongue.

That's about it right now, but if the dimensional trajectory is more inclined than it is now, and can summon demons in earnest.

I have no idea how many things will go wrong.

What are you talking about, Ji! I don't know! The ones I'm dealing with...!

Euges continued to speak with difficulty, interrupting one word at a time.

Perhaps the people she is dealing with are ordinary warlocks.

" I don't seem to be able to use magic with proper power because I was in a hurry to cast magic."

The urgent thing is that Eugene is also every single thing. Behind the scenes, Serpence was leisurely analyzing things.

Of course, it wasn't wrong.

In [Master of the Holy Sword], it was not that the evil spirits gave the 'Black Knight' an executive position just because they looked cool, and brought them to their side.

'It's much faster to pull the bowstring, release the spirit's energy, condense it, and then shoot it than the time it takes to materialize the magic.'

All of the original wizards are like that.

It is a job that only shows its true value when you put a tanker in front of you and put a stake in it without paying attention to other things.

Of course, if the average hit includes a deal that is at the level of other ultimates, the story will be different.

It doesn't seem like they're that great, so if it's Wilydia-nim, that's enough...

Yujisuyo!!

She intercepted Serpens' words and shouted sharply.

Nettle-, arrows tear the air

I went up the stairs, and soon after, a loud explosion sounded loudly.

Power is no joke.

"Yu, if it's Eugenes , then you will be able to endure it."

I could feel Serpens shivering behind my back and shaking my body.

Maybe I was usually surprised, or as if I was some kind of attachment doll, I held her tightly and changed her name as she told me to.

This child is scared

In the middle of a group called Eugenes'

It's clear that you've skipped the line.

'When we first met, I saw Serpence and said how powerful it was, but he is the most powerful!'
