My Villains Episode 292

53. The Midnight Sun (11)

Just as I was about to cut down the two ghouls who had jumped into the barrier looking for an opening, Golman hurriedly shouted.

“I am Nari! Look over there!”

Gollman, whose face was pale, raised the tip of his spear and pointed at the headless knights under the castle.

“They are coming!”

“...Whoa.”

Unknowingly, my impression is crumpled.

Dullahan, a headless knight, was attacking Utequai with a dozen skeleton knights clad in dazzling equipment.

“Shit.”

When I turned around, the monk standing at the gate tower was still pouring out prayers with an angry voice. Considering that it was fortunate that the momentum was still there, I called the confier.

“I have to go down! You lead here!”

“yes? Going down is too dangerous-”

“Protect the priest somehow!”

With my feet raised between the battlements, I begged him with a half-shout.

“Even if this barrier is crossed, you must protect the priest. To avoid suffocating in the filthy mist they exhale!”

“It’s impossible for us. You must be here!”

“This is your chance to deal with the Dullahans! Without them and the banshee, zombies

are just brainless corpses!”

“Wouldn’t it be better to wait for help from the cathedral!”

I looked towards the cathedral. There was no doubt that a battle had taken place, but since white flames soared about an hour ago, there was no news.

Biting my lip, worried about Heila and the mercenaries in the cathedral, I shook my head.

“...no. I can’t stand it until then.”

Zombies are full under the castle, and Dullahan and the Skeleton Knights are trying to kill Utequai to solidify their victory. It is not the time to hope for a good luck, but the time to see the game even if it is reckless.

“Sir!”

I threw behind the confire who was trying to dissuade him, and threw myself under the castle at once.

“Athar Marta—I”

Just in time, Ute Kwai, who had just gone berserk, pounced on the Dullahans. Chains with scarlet flames swept all over the place, following the mad eyes that flashed black.

Pushik!

The three Dullahans exhaled white vapor from their bodies and crouched down. Two of them blocked the chain whip, and the other threw his head at Utequai.

“o ” —–9

Utequai was able to maintain a bit of reason even while going berserk thanks to realizing the ‘Guidance of the Mother Goddess’. However, the evil energy that filled all sides made even the slightest bit of reason entangled.

In the end, instead of being calm in front of the Dullahands, he brought out a reckless spirit like a berserker. In a word, it is said that he attacked like a madman.

“Grrr!”

Utequai punched the large head that was flying towards him and pulled the chain. Then, they got entangled with the Doula Handeul and entered into a hand-to-hand fight where they took each other’s bones.

The Skeleton Knights stopped me trying to intervene.

“Gee *tattack* turn it off!”

They gnashed their teeth and attacked with fairly nimble movements.

Befitting the guys who had been promoted to Skeleton Knights by following Luke and accumulating experience points, their level of movement was completely different from when they faced off as Skeleton Soldiers in South Harbor. The goal of

“these bone bastards”

was to kill the Dullahans in a hurry and then somehow annihilate the Banshee, but the Skeleton Knights didn’t seem willing to let me go.

The Skull Knight, holding the ‘Forgotten Crusade’, a large shield with black drawings on a white background, believed in his armament and pushed himself forward.

Pure white, or white plate armor called ‘Pure White’, and even a helmet named ‘Knight’s Loyalty’ are worn, so there is no way to see any gaps.

With the black ice he had quickly picked up, he let go of the mace he wielded, ‘Nakseong’. Then, as if I had waited, all sorts of rare long weapons, such as ‘Blood-colored Sergeant’, ‘Enchanting Death’, and ‘Early Harvest’, aimed at me and attacked me all at once.

“Big X-arm-”

There was no option from the beginning to receive it with the body. Each one of them was a weapon powerful enough to tear apart even plate metal imbued with magic. Besides, even a slight cut would leave severe bleeding, pain beyond common sense, and a bizarre curse.

I stepped back and swung the morning star. At the same time, he spread blood magic and covered his shoulders with a shield of blood.

A three-pointed sword with red smoke brushed under the chin, and a terrifyingly sharp trident snapped at the blade that gleamed white! He was caught and pinned to the ground, a scythe with a handle more than two meters long was lodged between his feet, and a mace with five horns slapped him obliquely on the shoulder.

Quack!

“Kkeuu”

The bloody shield shattered in an instant.

The horns on Mace’s head pierced the gap between his shoulder blades as if they were alive. I immediately let go of the black ice and held on to the mace’s hilt. and lay down

Wedge liquid!

As soon as he lay down, arrows of bone, arrows of light, and black bullets slashed right in front of his eyes. The Skeleton Knights who were looking for an opportunity from behind opened fire all at once.

“Huh!”

I rolled backwards while clutching my horned mace, ‘Mammon’s Hand’. The Skeleton Knight holding the mace, unable to resist my vicious hand, grumbled and followed me.

“Huh-huh-” After

rolling about five or six times like that, by the time I got up from the mud, I had the head of a skull knight wearing a helmet in my hand. While they were rolling around in one lump, they shove a morning star under their chin and cut off their neck bones.

I smiled as I looked at the Skeleton Knights who stopped for a moment, wondering if I was surprised by the death of my comrade or just preparing my posture.

“one.”

Either that or not, the Skeleton Knights with their own siege nets were ‘just right!’ They attacked all at once with a loud gurgling sound.

“Hey Utequai!”

He threw the heavy mace. Utequai, who was entangled with the Dullahans, frothed at the mouth and shouted ‘Geuh ha!’ He laughed and picked up ‘Mammon’s hand’. It’s a look I really like.

Kwap.

Grabbing the handle of the Morning Star strongly, he attacked the Skeleton Knights.

Thanks to the psychic power of blood manipulation added to a body that transcended humans, I did not feel the fear of death unless it was a serious battle.

I had never tested it, but I was confident that I would survive if a hole the size of a fist pierced my stomach. It was certain that he would not die sooner or later.

But things are a little different now.

Among the 14 skeleton knights in front of me, the placenta holds a weapon that can cut through my armor and bones in one fell swoop. Besides, they don’t have blood, so I can’t exert less than half of my power.

“Whoop whoo!”

No, it can’t be. There was still a final struggle left.

After getting rid of all the Dullahan and Banshee, who can command the zombies, you have to somehow block the barrier or run away.

Most of the mercenaries and soldiers will die, but I have to do so in order for me and my comrades to survive...

“Turn it off!”

Then, a voice I had never heard before rang in my ears.

“...Utequai?”

“Ummm-”

I quickly turned around to see Utequai kneeling on one knee, groaning with a double-edged ax driven into his shoulder. The ax blade had gone deep enough to confuse whether or not it had touched his heart.

Now, there was only one Dullahan left in front of Utequai, but if he moved carelessly, his heart would explode.

“This crazy”

I tried to run to him, but the Skeleton Knights blocked my way. The Skeleton Knight holding the ‘Crossbow of the Dead’ also shot a crossbow at me as if he had been waiting.

“Kuk!”

After narrowly dodging the bone arrow by tilting his chin, he swung the morning star wide. The Skeleton Knights, who had been gaining momentum as if they were about to attack at any moment, took a step back.

hard.

It was obvious from their gestures that they were intent on wasting time, which made my teeth gnash.

I can’t help it.

To ambush Dullahan using the Aeloforce. this is my last call

If you deal with Dullahan within a couple of breaths, you’ll be able to open your way, but if you don’t, you’ll be hit by the Skeleton Knights’ pincer attack and you’ll be stranded. Then you’ll be buried in that endless army of zombies.

“Whoa.”

I finally catch my breath...

Why is it itchy on one side of my vision?

I made a stupid noise and turned my head. The sun was rising on the right of the two roads leading into the monastery.

“......Huh?”

My head is dizzy from momentary cognitive dissonance.

“Is the sun rising?”

Has time passed like that? It’s still winter, so the sun doesn’t rise until 7:00 in the morning. Why in the middle of the night?

Besides... that’s west? At that moment, a ray of light stretched from the sun in the distance and illuminated the banshee.

Kiyeeek-!

The scream he gave out this time wasn’t a trick full of evil energy. It was literally the final words of a person who was about to disappear in fear.

Uh-oh-!

From afar, frozen corpses were swallowed up in the light, leaving behind weak cries. The sun slowly rose, consuming the darkness.

No, he was running this way.

Fifteen riders are driving the sun and running towards it.

= = = = /

7『’』〒/

The riders who filled the road in angular rows pushed the darkness away, showing off their white light.

My gaze was naturally fixed on the center lead of the riders.

“Glory to the Lord!”

booming voice. it was a woman’s

“Rest for them!”

It was Gelan, the language of Mittergerland.

“And for me only honor!”

At that moment, I was sure of their identity. The Paladins of the Order of Caldandari and the ‘Anointed One’.

The second

sun radiated its rays once more. All the dead in the wide road from the ranks of the paladins to the entrance of the monastery were burned and scattered.

I stood blankly in the sacred flames. Far from burning me, the flames were taking away even minor scars.

Utequai, who was kneeling on the other side, also pulled out an ax with a squeak, and the wound healed before a few drops of blood flowed.

Meanwhile, the morning star in my hand gradually lost its light. It would have been natural since the surrounding evil was wiped out, but on the other hand, as the name of the long sword, it seemed to hide itself in front of the sun.

While he looked down at the morning star, the undead forces that formed waves melted away or scattered.

Not only Banshee, but also Dullahan, who was aiming for Utequai’s head, was devoured by the sun.

every time.

Among the Paladins who had slowed down before they knew it, the one who stood at the forefront took the reins and approached.

“You?”

A bright and clear voice.

A holy knight wearing a ‘Divine Sun’ on the tip of his spear (W槍) came up to me about 56 meters away before I knew it and was looking down at me.

Do you need treatment?”

“No, no.”

Startled, I shook my head and opened my mouth.

“My name is Phoenix.”

“indeed.”

There was a hint of laughter in the short voice. She grabbed the reins and came a little closer to me.

“As I heard from my maternal uncle, you are a devoted knight.”

The cross-patterned full helm came off, and her pale blonde hair, resembling the sun, poured out like a waterfall.

Looking up at her face, which was both practically and metaphorically radiant, I knelt still.

“It is an honor to meet you.”

“Do you know me?”

“yes.”

I lowered my head, blinked, and looked up at her again. Her face seemed a little clearer as if she had adjusted to the light.

“This is Princess Theodora, a Holy Knight of the Calandari Church.”

Princess Theodora, who smiled gently as if she had answered correctly, was dozens of times more beautiful than what she saw through the monitor.
