Chapter 369

Chapter 369. The battle to subdue the Dark Church (5) + Leader's appearance (1) The newly resurrected warlock pointed at the two, shaking his staff.

“Sword masters of the Merman Empire and the Principality of Elben...

”

“I can’t believe even the black magicians know this. Should I call it an honor?”

While having such a conversation, the two simultaneously cut down the black magician who recognized them.

Sword Master of the Merman Empire and the Principality of Elben.

Both are knights who have risen to the level of Aura Master, one of the few on the continent.

Originally, men who would only meet as enemies on the battlefield are now fighting together over a common enemy.

For the subjugation of the black magician this time, among the kingdoms that possessed sword masters, the countries that could afford to defend themselves to some extent ordered them to participate.

That's why they set aside their personal feelings and cooperate with each other to slay the warlock.

“Anyway, there are a lot of them. It doesn't decrease there, so it's really difficult.”

“It’s done. Hit and kill even one more bastard while you have time to complain! That's it!”

The two of them seemed to have a leisurely conversation, but unlike that appearance, they were making the warlock incapable of action one by one as they saw it, steadily and without any gaps.

What they do is to first jump into places that soldiers have not yet reached and stir up enemy lines.

Wherever they pass, a slashing storm rages incessantly, and the black magicians are helplessly overpowered.

It revives, but it takes time to regenerate.

If so, it is possible to break through the wire if you cut it faster and more than you can regenerate.

Their role is to pave the way for the soldiers to go further than this.

If there is a strong warlock, it will take care of it first before it damages the troops.

In order to break the current war situation, which shows signs of a long-term war, the allied forces decided to send the strong men who remained intact.

Only five sword masters gathered in this allied army.

Up to 4 masters of the Mage Tower.

Undoubtedly, these alone would be enough power to conquer a country.

In addition to Felken and Swen's rampage, a violent crushing sound rang out from the other side as well.

Those who participated in the battle were Menel and Betilan, among the three who are often called Ernesia's three greatest sword masters.

The two of them were also constantly stirring the battlefield, making the warlocks temporarily incapacitated.

Menel's rapier cuts off the joints and muscles of warlocks, and Betilando's specialty, twin swords, crosses over and overwhelms them without rest.

Against them, the black magicians also did not stand still.

An old man presumed to be a black magician executive came out and demonstrated his specialty.

“O giant of the abyss!”

As he finished his spell, a black giant emerged from the ground at his feet.

A golem whose entire body is made of obsidian.

“O giant! Hit those knights who don't even know the subject!”

As if obeying orders, the black giant sprints toward the allied forces with shining eyes.

The longbowmen fired their bows, but their metal arrows did little damage to the enchanted golem.

The attack of the magic troops was the same. Seeing that the golem could not be stopped despite the resistance of the allied forces, the black magician's executive burst into madness.

To trample the retreating soldiers, overwhelmed by the giant's size, the obsidian golem slammed down its huge feet as if trampling them.

“Do not think that the immortal body is all we have! The true fear of our Dark Church lies in the mystery of the abyss!”

But it wasn't until this point that he burst out laughing.

The knight's feet were blocked by the sword that sprang out from among the allied forces.

It was Ernesia's 3rd Sword Master, Medieval Kania Ernesia's swordsmanship.

Her swordsmanship, stronger and bigger than the other masters, was not easily inferior to the golem's size and strength.

“Haaaaaaa!”

As Kania gave strength and swung her arms wide, the obsidian golem that was pushed back fell backwards.

Seeing that sight, the warlock shook his head as if it were nonsense.

Leader's appearance (1)

On the other hand, the Dark Church's aerial fortress.

“Is it a bit too much for you at this rate?”

Little Principal Letelneas surveyed the battlefield with a crystal ball that illuminated the scene outside.

Currently, the warlocks' defensive line was pushed to a very dangerous area.

This is all because the allied forces have beaten and poured all their remaining forces.

As soon as the day dawned, the allied forces launched another attack on the fortress of the Dark Church.

This time, however, the Allied morale was extraordinary.

With a large amount of troops and sword masters and mage masters participating in the battle, the defense line had no choice but to retreat.

In a simple contest of strength, the Church side was completely pushed aside.

“...Hmm, is there anything unexpected?”

He stroked his chin and calmly considered the situation.

It was expected that their resistance would be strong in the first place.

At first, he advised the religious leader to send a warning to each kingdom not to touch them, but he knew very well that it wouldn't work.

The problem is that the reaction of the Dark Church, which warned us so much, was very subtle.

It was not unreasonable to look ridiculous.

‘I can't help it. It seems that the headmaster still has some lingering feelings...?'

This was the reason why the black magicians cheered for the revival of the cult leader but could not retaliate against each other.

Because the priest strictly forbade it.

“Until I have my permission in the name of the leader, I will not allow anyone to invade each kingdom.”

Having said that, she forbade even private revenge.

Of course, there were quite a few black magicians who objected at first.

They dreamed of thorough revenge and shouted long live for the resurrection of the leader, but it was frustrating because the leader had no interest in revenge.

But that didn't last long either.

That is, until she saw the warlocks who disobeyed her orders perish in a blink of an eye.

Only then did all the warlocks of the Dark Church understand.

It is the cult leader who saved them, but it is the cult leader who can reap the favor at any time.

After that, surprisingly, there was no backlash.

Watching even the slightest glare, he faithfully followed the leader's orders.

“In a sense, it might be the prerogative of a king...

He muttered those words without realizing it.

It was because I was convinced once again that holding onto life itself was no different from completely dominating them.

After all, it was worth sticking with the Dark Church for a long time.

He was delighted with that fact.

‘If this is the case, I'll be able to see ‘him' in the future.' But now you have to be careful.

The original mind should not leak out yet.

Letelneas looked at the situation again and contemplated.

Right now, it is urgent to deal with the allied forces.

“Originally, I was going to hold out only with the sit-in, but I got into trouble.”

Warlocks' characteristic of not dying would be infinitely annoying to the enemy.

At first, he made use of that characteristic and endured, but eventually reached his limit.

“Do I need to use a little trick?”

Letelneas clicked his fingers and called Rogel, a warlock official.

He, too, was revived at the same time as the religious leader's resurrection.

Even though he was killed by a minor master rather than an enemy, for some reason he didn't bother showing it to him.

Perhaps he thinks it is useless to examine it.
