221 How to Corrupt a Saint (2)

"Well, what is this?"

An unknown message that came to mind.

However, before reading the message, the darkness that covers the entire cave squirms.

A tentacle rising from the side aims for his head.

Bow your head urgently.

Tentacles pass through the hair.

Per billion!

"Huff!"

One of the Watchers of Light next to him got caught in the tentacles instead.

Stab him.

Mucilage flowing in tentacles.

Sharp protuberances emerged as the technological edge of tentacles split.

"Hiya, Hiya! Help me!! Help me!!!"

Scream desperately.

Tears as you twist your body.

Terrible horror. A dense horror beyond death consumes his body.

Squeeze your body. Reach out with pity as you crave your life.

But it is.

Ironclad!

"Ahhh!!! Lu, Ludwig!! Ludwig!!! Please, save me!! Ludwig Nieim!!!"

"……."

High tech tentacles cling to the priest's face.

Dozens of protrusions squirm as if tasting flesh.

Flesh cuts on sharp edges like a blade. Dozens, hundreds of protrusions reveal the skin and suck the blood flowing through the wounds.

And then.

Glug. Glug.

The yellow pus flows out on a spur.

The abscess that entered between the open skin.

Pain with a horrible stench encroaches on him.

"Argh! Argh!!"

"Priest Geras!!"

Ludwig urgently reached out.

A herd of white lights came out.

Holy Sword Ludwig.

A sword filled with glorious power.

Sword like his name, life, purpose.

I grabbed the sword.

I swung.

Quadruple!

The sword touched the tentacle. A mass of flesh as long as the thickness of the thighs of an adult male was cut by the Holy Sword.

A sword blessed by Heielf, a mysterious race that will not appear except when the continent of Ernor is in danger of extinction.

The power of blessing that destroys the Holy Spirit has spread.

White light spread like poison.

A mass of flesh explodes and the tentacles surrounding the priest's head fall out.

"Ah."

short elasticity,

Close to groaning came out.

Iron puck.

Open skull, yellow pus from which the cord flows. Rotten skin and greasy eyeballs.

The priest was already dead.

Ludwig's expression was distorted.

He pulls a communicative crystal bead out of his arms.

A communicating bead that Gaia asked you to use if something happened.

"Damn it."

Hedgehog. Hedgehog.

Noise occurred on the crystal bead as if it were foggy.

Mixed with the noise, someone's voice flowed in. It's a man's voice.

Wh-Wh-Wh. Hey, what's going on?

"This is Ludwig. I think someone's got their hands on the gate. I'm guessing it's a demon trap."

What's the situation...?

"I'm fine, but my men have already been beaten. This is dangerous. Ask all Guardians for assistance. We're going to buy some time while we run away."

Can you... come out...?

"You can't go out like this. Space itself seems to be dominated by demons."

Now... where.

"I don't know. It looks like we've entered the dungeon.

H-Ro, H-Chi Ji Yi!!

Noise darkened.

Noise enough for your ears to freeze. Ludwig throws the crystal bead to the ground, distorting his expression.

Stared beyond the dark abyss.

I turned around and shouted.

"Forward!!!"

If I stay like this, I won't be fed if I die.

Avoid tentacles.

"Yes? I'm advancing?"

"It's better to go back here...."

The two priests who were blocking the attack of the spilling tentacles shouted out urgently.

Ludwig cried out biting his lips.

"There's nowhere else to run."

"Ah, ah."

In his words, the priests turned their heads.

The entrance to the gate where they came in disappeared as if it had been eaten up by darkness.

The faces of the priests were swallowed up by despair.

Ludwig took one step with the Holy Sword out. I pulled up my inner strength.

White light emanated from the whole body.

The power of angels.

If the Devil has Magi, the angel exercises a miracle with his power.

I focused on the Holy Sword.

From top to bottom.

I lay it down.

Puhuahhhhhhh!!

The glorious light that extends from the Holy Sword Ludwig cuts the tentacles in line.

As Moses cut off the waves, a path was made in a dark cavity full of tentacles.

"Now!"

"Argh!!!"

The Watchers of Light ran away.

They throw off the chivalrous lobe and concentrate their strength in both hands.

White light like a burning flame.

radially emits that light.

Chiayeeeeeeeeeeee!!

As it fills the cracks, the incoming tentacles are burned by the flames of light.

Smells like a nightmare with a mackerel act.

"Argh!"

"Don't stop!!"

Stopped by a terrible stench, he grabs the priest's throat.

The tentacle passed through where he was.

Lower your body. Focus your strength on your back.

Pearl!

The white wings are spread out through the back skin.

Spread wings with power. Exit cavity full of tentacles at a fast rate.

Fly to darkness.

[Hahahahaha!!]

I heard a laugh. The energy of disgusting Margie in her voice.

Ludwig's expression was roughly distorted.

"It was the Devil's doing."

I wondered how he learned about his existence and how he managed to manipulate the gates located within the Hall of Protection and bring them here.

But that too for a moment.

'First kill the devil.'

There is no shaking of belief.

If the Devil dragged him into a trap, we could just kill him and get out.

[Nice to meet you, man.]

"……."

I don't answer.

The opponent is a demon. He was a disgusting heretic who was not worthy of a conversation.

Raise the Holy Sword. Pose.

[Khhhh, at least you should know each other's names.]

The demon smiles, covered in green tentacles.

A terrible magi crushed him.

"There is no name to reveal to the devil."

I answer decisively.

[Hahaha! That's a good defeat!]

A demon with a massive mass of five meters laughs loudly.

Whenever he smiles, a dark space emerges.

The devil picks up two fists that are not covered in tentacles.

[It is still the name of the existence that will kill you. You'd better know.]

Demons twist their mouths up.

[I am Yogsaron.]

"……."

It's the name of a demon I've never heard of. Ludwig frowned. What matters is not who the opponent is.

The only thing that matters is that the enemy in front of you is the devil.

'All demons are evil.'

It kills.

Whoo-hoo!

The Holy Sword shines.

Run with your sword on you.

The demon avoided the attack with a sleek move that did not hit hard.

I turned my body halfway around my left foot.

I lowered my body and was shot with resilience.

[Hrrrrrrgh.]

"Hiya, Hiya!"

After slipping away from the attack, he reaches out and catches the priest's throat.

I pushed the priest's body forward, as if it were a shield.

"Lu, Ludwig...!"

Phew!!

"Huff!!"

I have no hesitation.

He cleaves the priest's body as it is and casts out his sword.

It doesn't matter whether he is his subordinate or a fellow who serves the light.

'To kill demons.'

It is not the time to care about such petty things.

The sword that cut the priest's body pierced Yogsaron's shoulder.

The green tentacles were torn and red skin covered with hard muscles was revealed.

As if a sword hits a hard armor, an intense repulsive force rips off the palm.

[Hahaha!! Don't you hesitate, even your men?]

"Shut up, demon."

Ludwig replied low.

Even though he killed a man who had been following him for a long time with his own hands, there is no slight regret in his face.

No grief, no guilt.

I can't feel it.

It is no wonder that beings serving the light exclude demons.

It doesn't matter if you sacrifice everything else to kill the devil.

Steel.

Raise the sword.

A white band of light illuminates the darkness.

A body that shines with glorious power. White wings with pearls.

I became closer to an angel than I was to a human being.

[Funny.]

Yogsaron laughed.

[The Demon King will love it.]

"... Demon King?"

In that ominous name, Ludwig distorted his expression.

"Are you talking about Satan?"

[Huh? Khhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!]

Yogsaron grabbed the boat and smiled.

[Satan?? Satan? Do you think this Yogsaron will serve such a weak demon?]

"……."

Ludwig's eyes trembled.

It got complicated in my head.

Unless the Demon King is Satan.

'Who.'

Speaking of the arrogant title of Demon King.

[Come, seed of light. I'll make you realize the power of a true horse.]

Before Ludwig's thoughts continued, Yogsaron's body cut through the light.

* * *

'Good.'

Outside the dungeon.

Through the magic device installed by Reese, the mouth of the rain that was seeing the inside rose.

More than 30 minutes after the full battle between Balok and Ludwig.

The tide was slowly turning to Ludwig's disadvantage.

'Strong, but strong.'

Now that you've regained all the power of the past through your demons.

Valoc, whose soul and strength were joined by him, was a strong man who could truly fight like the Grand Duke.

Then 30 minutes against him.

It also left a deep wound for Valoc in the middle.

No matter how powerful the Archangel's Apostle is, it is surprising that he has this much power.

'There must be an effect of that sword.'

Holy Sword Ludwig.

I glanced at the sword that emits a glorious light.

Surely Ludwig showed more power than he expected.

'But.'

After all, that's it.

Thank you!

"Huff! Huff! Phew!"

Ludwig's knee fell on his knees.

He squeezes his chest and vomits a rough breath.

Looking at him, the rain smiled.

'Let's get started.'

I put the communicating crystal bead in my hand.

On his behalf, I took out a black sphere.

In keeping with his movements, one of the tentacles, which extends clandestinely from the floor, clings to Ludwig's back.

Rain, which confirmed that it was' connected ', nodded satisfactorily.

His voice will now ring directly into Ludwig's head.

'This effect is not important.'

The feeling is different from listening with your ears.

A head, not an ear.

It is important that the feeling resonates throughout the body.

'Well, then.'

Now it's time to tell the ambassador you've been preparing.

I was excited by the look of the rain.

'Hey, Shiva, I really wanted to try someday.'

I feel unfairly that I have never seen this line since I came up to the Demon King's seat.

"Heh, heh."

I loosened my neck.

'Hold on to your emotions.'

I slowly opened my eyes and pulled Maggie up.

The most suitable ambassador for corruption.

A word that comes to mind when it's corrupted.

"Do you want power?"

His voice flows through the black sphere.

A bizarre, mute voice echoed directly into Ludwig's head.

A dark, damp voice that seems to be touching Abyss.

"... What?"

Ludwig suddenly nods at the voice in his head.

Looking at him, the rains gripped his fist with a flame.

'Kiyaaaaaah!!! That's right! This is the ambassador!! If it's corrupted, you can't lose this line!'

There was a high rate of exclusion.

"Oh, hey. '

Do you want power?

The lines he spit out hover over his ears.

'That's really cool.'

He should have seen this.
