Episode 824 Beila the Deceiver (8)
The armies of the Lessian Empire and the Heybon Kingdom have arrived at the Lawfield Plain.
Originally, the empire should have arrived later because it passed through the mountains, but because of the princess’ order to hurry, they ran without stopping.
As soon as the two armies entered the plain, no matter who said first, they spoke seriously.
“Maggie!”
“A warlock! Did they decide to join the war too!”
The first empire and land are small, but thanks to the many relics that have been handed down from the age of magic, the joint effort of the Kingdom of Heybon, which has grown strong, gathered as many as 90,000 soldiers.
However, it was not easy to overcome Beila’s demonic energy despite her endless potential.
More than half fainted and collapsed, and Gregory and Selena, who were in command of the army, drool.
“Keugh...!”
“Sir Gregory! I guess this is...!”
“I know! It’s not from royalties!”
Even the two people who were marching on the continent were stunned by the storm of demons driving from the front.
I heard the news of Baybon’s defeat, but I couldn’t believe it would be this much!
The feeling of wanting to step back became desperate only with the momentum I felt.
* * *
A major attack by the principality was launched, but to no avail.
More than 200,000 people have already been killed or injured without a significant wound.
Zeke, who was limp and covered in blood, spat the blood in his mouth.
“...can we really win?”
The divine power has long since run out.
Even the intangible swordsman created from his recent enlightenment did not produce any reaction, so he began to lose even his will to fight.
“Cover the knights!”
“Priests, concentrate on healing!”
As the magic of the elves embroidered the sky, the battlefield literally turned into mayhem.
Ray let out a heavy breath.
‘It doesn’t work at all.’
I tried to use magic using the gap Sunbok made, but I couldn’t penetrate the magic that surrounded Beila’s body.
Taking advantage of the fact that he did not die, Rich rushed at him without hesitation, giving him a little more time than before, but that was all.
Even within the principality, the talented people who could not wield a spear or a sword disappeared in a matter of days, making them even more weak.
– Is it the end?
Like a child who has lost interest in toys.
Bayla’s voice was full of disappointment.
“The sword can’t reach.”
Hongyoung was pushed back by the anti-elastic force.
“Holy Son, it can’t go on like this.”
You need a hand that can pierce demonic energy.
Rey approached Aira.
“I’m going to amplify the magic with the magic circle. Help me.”
“If it’s a magic circle...”
Are you referring to the overlapping magic circle that was used in the temple?
She glanced at Ray.
No matter how strong the mana rod may be, his body is that of a human.
If you use more than the allowed amount of mana, there is a risk that the vessel containing it will break.
Ira hesitated a little.
“You are reckless.”
“Right now, there is no other way.”
“You have to be prepared.”
Rei gave a smirk to Aira, who was speaking seriously.
“My life is tough.”
Still a playful voice.
But there was an unprecedented spleen in it.
Ray drew the air with his index finger.
Joo-wook-!
An unfamiliar pattern appeared, and Aira filled it with a sentence.
one layer two layers.
Each time the magic circle overlapped, the mana contained within also doubled.
The mana rod heats up because they have been in groups for a long time.
However, Ray did not stop his hand even in pain.
three or four layers.
I managed to hold on to my dizzying spirit and slowly completed the magic circle.
When the seven layers of magic circles overlap.
Bella and her eyes met.
Not yet.
You can’t kill him like this.
A burning thirst spread throughout the Mana Road.
Blood vessels constrict and consciousness becomes hazy.
eight nine.
Eventually, around the time when the 10th magic circle was just completed.
For the first time feeling a sense of danger, Beila, who had never been so carefree, waved her hand at Ray.
There was no way to stop the attack.
If mana is disturbed, the magic circle loses its effect and disappears.
‘We have to endure!’
Ray gritted it.
Aaaaaang-!
With an explosion of alcohol, Magi exploded through the space.
The body sinks into pitch darkness.
In the excruciating pain, even the five senses faded.
– Kill.
Someone’s dry voice continued.
When one word resounded, the mountain range collapsed, and when two words followed, the earth split.
When I came to my senses, there was no voice there, only one shadow.
With resentment.
sorrow into despair.
When the lofty mission comes to an end and returns.
The shadow began to take shape and drew the image of a woman.
said the voice.
– Poor thing.
end of the book.
The will contained in the last true name has been conveyed.
resentment, despair, and relief.
sorrow and sense of duty.
In addition to the familiar emotions I had felt before, there were emotions that were difficult to describe.
-Your role is over.
At the same time as the voice was heard, the emotion intensified.
Only then did I know
That this is a ‘feeling of betrayal’.
Vision returned to normal.
Mountains that seemed far away appear closer, and the sky, which I thought was only high, appears low.
“ha.”
Ray took a deep breath.
What I wanted to convey was not hate and life.
The sense of betrayal contained in the last true name.
It was not for the demons, but for the goddess Gaia, who had risen to the position of main god thanks to the merits of the Heavenly Demon War.
It is said that great races retain their will even after death.
In other words, this book was a coffin that sealed their will.
Ray aimed the fierce killing spirit contained in the book at the demon Beila.
Beila’s Magi responds to that.
– Is it a dragon?
The will of the dragons who once guarded Middle-earth turned toward him.
The voice of the book flowed into my head.
-A former person. I convey my last will to you, and this will be our follow-up ceremony.
Their vast will is too much to contain in their human bodies.
They, too, must have wanted the same people to open it someday.
A language spirit far beyond Aira’s and her own held Beila like a chain.
For some reason, it seems vague.
A red line running between the book and the baile.
It looked dangerous as if it would break at any moment, but instead of being cut off despite Beila’s struggles, it continued to tighten her body even more.
“It’s time to go back to the Demon Realm.”
Ray raised mana for the last time.
Gaia tried to use those who had assigned the mission as consumables and to make the second scapegoat for the new heroic clan.
Ray, who was entrusted with a mission from them, even for a moment, made up his mind about the future.
From now on, I will refrain from divine intervention in Middle-earth.
think of each one
come together for others
Even if it’s a monster, I want to protect a place that smells of people.
It contains the life I wanted to protect in my previous life and the life I want to change now.
Consciousness and will melt into one thing.
The intense will that trembled the whole body touched the red line like a fuse.
Hey hey-!
A deafening cry echoed across the plain.
Even as her hair fluttered as if it had been hit with blue and the plains were shaking, Ray just watched.
Because he was infinitely strong, he couldn’t get out of boredom.
The chains on her body pulled her from all sides.
He asked, dripping with blood.
-What was the last thing you touched?
Only one of Beyla’s three horns remained.
Even the body, which was full of strength, is crumbling, so life must be exhausted and breath is cut off.
Ray answered without hesitation.
“It is destiny.”
-Is there a destiny imposed by God on demons? If God is the one who deals with life and death, how could you touch my destiny?
The spilled blood wets the ground.
Even though her body was cracking, there was no pitch in Beila’s voice.
Looking down at his broken body, he gave a self-deprecating smile and then met their eyes.
-Right.
Beila was hardened to stone.
Blowing my body in the breeze that might shake my hair.
He silently nods his head as if he were meditating in Zen meditation without end.
-Has the will gained strength and finally reached the godhead?
Puppy-!
The demonic energy that had exhausted its strength completely disappeared, and the new model that had maintained its shape collapsed.
extinction of magic.
The angry divine power is tied to the will and disappears from the depths.
The wind died down and a pleasant silence like a calm lake rang in my heart.
Ray just stood there with his hands hanging down.
A plain in early summer, where dried and withered hay stretches.
The giant of the Black Room, which competed for supremacy over heaven and earth, collapsed.
