Chapter 217

Episode 217: The world is (2)

Ha, really? Are you really going to let it work like this? Are you kidding me?

“...You went through a lot of trouble because of me.”

Damn it! If you do this, your soul will be eaten by that guy!

“I’m really... I’m really sorry—”

Are you listening to me, damned human?

“Shut up trash. I am apologizing to this person. “Don’t intervene.”

The bright blue baby...!

* * *

Is it okay?

She wanted to answer someone who asked that question. It would be better if he died fighting.

But....

“I know that no death can be a good thing.”

In the end, that was the answer that came first. Even though I knew that Nordan warriors were proud of dying while fighting.

The death that the Nordan warriors revered and the death she came to realize were different, and that difference would not be narrowed for the rest of her life.

Even if she lives as a Norda warrior and dies as a Norda warrior.

“There is no such thing as a blessed death in the world.”

Death is just a word that nicely wraps up being forgotten.

And to be forgotten is to be erased from the world, as if it never existed in the first place.

Her eyelids fluttered as she scolded her bitterly. Quang! Her body is jumping, stepping on the bursting water and falling debris.

fluttering.

The thick cloth wrapped around his waist spread out dully.

Wow!

Pow!

Standing at the edge of the collapsing castle wall, she viciously kicked the Merman who was trying to cut her down. Merman’s head was slightly crushed, and her body rose in the recoil.

The next thing her feet touched was the neck of a monster that had broken the obstacle and was advancing.

The body of the snake that spiraled around the turtle’s neck was slippery.

Wow!

She moved her arms as soon as she felt like she was slipping under the thin soles of her shoes.

In an instant, her hand twisted the grip and the angle of her wrist and forearm and swung the spear vertically.

square.

Almost as soon as it landed, the spinning spear skimmed the snake’s skin. Unfortunately, it was impossible to even check whether it was scratched or not.

If the flesh is not completely split, whether there is a scratch or not is meaningless.

“after.”

And now we are in a situation where we have to take a step back.

[Where are you going?]

[I’m here.]

[My younger brother.]

That’s the case with the sirens that flew around. If they attack at the same time, even she will have a hard time.

So, even though she felt uncomfortable with those who added one word to her, she gave priority to running while stepping on the snake. The snake’s body was thick enough for her to jump.

...So are you going to die today?

At about that time, someone asks again. Her lips were sweet.

“Maybe so.”

This stubborn word has been repeated like a parrot since before.

She exhaled as she dug the blade of her spear into the gap between scales.

[It’s cold, it’s cold. It’s so cold...]

[Save me. Please save me....]

Although the spear blade did not cause much damage to the snake, her body used the spear as support and briefly lifted her legs. Pow! The tip of my toe repeatedly struck the joints of the Siren’s wings.

Crack.

Then, when her legs touched the floor again, she quickly pulled out her spear and swung it.

Those struck by the blades of spears and the ends of sticks fell back, bleeding.

Coo!

“...!”

At that time, with a violent shaking, the giant monster broke through the castle wall.

The part of the carapace that was caught between the two walls was broken down and the castle proceeded without notice.

Her hand, which almost flew away, quickly tried to grab the snake’s body. However, it was too slippery so she took advantage of the Siren who was trying to attack instead.

Her hand hit the neck of the approaching creature and stepped on its body, grabbing the turtle’s skin.

Seaweed, coral, and all kinds of shells grew on the snake’s skin, so there were many things that could be used as handles.

Sigh!

Suddenly, she saw the cool sea water rushing below her. There wasn’t a lot of rescue planes coming in every time a wave hit.

Purr purr.

But the real problem with it is not the amount of water, but what comes with it.

The legless mermen—forced in by the first current—jumped and tried to return to the sea, while the legged ones walked forward, covered in mud.

Thump thump thump.

In the meantime, the monster has no intention of stopping. It was slow, but it was really embarrassing because it was so big that it was faster than the basic human pace.

But that thought did not last long.

“Ugh!”

“I’m going!”

Screaming could be heard every other block. no. It gradually decreased. It was just a bunch of corpses.

“Dullahan!”

But what is this? After discovering the Tarasque and the Dullahan, she felt very uncomfortable.

After all, both the Tarrasque and the Dullahan were demons that could never be easily seen.

This is because the Tarasque requires hundreds of sacrifices to be summoned, and the Dullahan requires the corpse of a knight whose head was cut off on the battlefield—the cause of death had to be that—to be born.

So no matter how much preparation the devil contractors who did this did, it would be difficult to send them out at the same time...

Quang!

As she was made from the corpse of a knight, she blocked Dullahan’s swordsmanship, which was excellent, with only her shield. Then, when Dullahan’s continuous attack was over, he suddenly pressed down with divine power.

You need to conserve your strength, but Dullahan was an enemy that would take too long to deal with while sparing it. Since time was of the essence, we had to make good decisions.

Kwasik!

The Inquisitor’s mace shattered the Dullahan’s frozen heart.

Squeak!

In the meantime, Gremlin appears.

She gritted her teeth over a lesser demon similar to a goblin. A high-ranking devil would be better now. Since it’s just one animal, she can handle it alone.

However, the lower classes are just too strong and numerous for ordinary people to handle...

“Thank you.”

“Go!”

If even one leaks out, not only that man but also the horse is in danger.

The Inquisitor shouted, putting aside his doubts about where the demons were coming from following the appearance of two high-ranking demons.

“Take this horse too! It belongs to a knight, so you can hand it over to someone who works at a temple or castle! You must hand it over!”

“Ah, I understand!”

Will citizens really want to return that majestic and precious-looking horse? While she was conflicted, she quickly memorized the faces of citizens.

Gray hair, blue eyes. It was unclear whether he would be able to retain this memory from all future events.

“You too, run away with that person. “Thank you so much.”

Purruk.

Still, I feel a little relieved because that kid is smart.

She usually doesn’t listen, but at times like this, she expresses her divine power by saying words that can communicate amazingly. A golden curtain blocked the gremlins.

“Aaaah!”

Meanwhile, the horse began to run, carrying citizens. Wow. The screams of the poor person who had never learned how to ride a horse and had to start from wet walking echoed through the alley.

That would attract the attention of demons. I couldn’t bear to give that advice.

She steadily moved forward, smashing the gremlin’s head by swinging her shield while sheathing her mace.

There were no more screams, as if there were no more survivors.

“...!”

Instead, the air began to change. It was the kind of air where hot breath penetrated your respiratory tract and the searing heat gently scratched your skin.

The fire giant that seemed so far away was now just around the corner.

“Devil Knight...”

Where is the person who went to stop that now? I wonder if he’s lying down somewhere like other people...

Wow!

Kang!

She reflexively swung her shield at the bizarre monster that poured out through the narrow gap. This is because the reflexes developed through long training judged the opponent to be of an irregular shape.

And there are often cases where something irregular comes into the side of the shield. It should never have been stopped.

Clap!

“Mimic!”

She hastily pulled out her mace and prepared to respond.

This is because the Mimic, which settles in a container that can hold something or in a narrow crevice and devours anything that comes close, was one of the most difficult demons to deal with.

Arm Mimic is a subspecies of Slime. If you don’t want to experience the moment everything except metal melts upon contact, you must absolutely avoid contact and destroy the core.

Although sometimes the worst ones even melt metal.

“after.”

So, will this also be pushed through with divine power? But I used up too much energy coming here. Even though the demonic energy there has not decreased at all!

She gritted her teeth as her body heated up again.

Should I go or should I stop here and just kill the demons that come out? Could she possibly handle that place alone in the first place?

It was too heavy to make a decision on her own, but the weight of having to decide on her own weighed down on her shoulders.

I wish the Archmage had at least a demon knight who eliminates her options by taking the lead, or someone who could ease her burden by discussing things with her.

The Inquisitor’s lips pursed.

[Why are you standing there?]

Then the demon called to her. Immediately after asking that question, Mimic stopped and no longer showed any intention to attack.

[Come quickly and kill the great devil, hero.]

It was truly the devil’s whisper.

...Is anyone there?

「...!」

...!
