Chapter 143
Episode 143
“Kruk. what?”
The demon beast pulls out the nails from both hands and asks. Jeron didn’t answer, but looked into the Squirrel’s eyes and slashed her sword from top to bottom.
“… … !”
The demon beast felt that something invisible was tearing through his body. But when there is no change, he frowns and says.
“What did you do…” … .”
Before the words were finished, the body was split in half. Bright red blood, not green, was sprayed everywhere.
Jeron watched the scene with sunken eyes.
Eventually, the demon beast’s split body came back together as if it had been rewound, and the blood that had escaped was also sucked in, and he let out a small sigh.
I stretched out my palms.
An intangible energy gushed out from the heart and enveloped the body of the demon beast.
“… … !”
The demon beast tried to shout something, but it was crushed as if a junk car had been crushed. The moment Jeron’s palm was grasped, it balled up into a ball of flesh the size of a soccer ball.
Knock-knock-.
Blood dripped from the lump of flesh. As if that wasn’t enough, gray flames rose up and turned the flesh into ashes. Ashes flew with the wind.
“This should be enough.”
Jeron mumbled and slightly raised his head. There was a man covered in a black robe.
“is not it?”
“… … .”
The black-robed man-warlock was silent.
The sight I just saw was shocking. I was even more shocked because I knew better than anyone else in the world that demonic beasts were not weak.
‘I thought I could at least grab Duke Furion’s ankle and send him to hell with me, but he destroyed him easily?’
The warlock gathered his thoughts and asked.
“Who are you?”
“Would it make any difference if I knew who I was?”
When Jeron smiled and asked again, the warlock’s body trembled once. It wasn’t accurate because he wasn’t a party, but I thought he was angry.
“good. “I will make a suggestion.”
“oh! Good suggestion. say it.”
The warlock curled the corners of his mouth under the hood of his robe as Jeron responded obediently. I know that the guy in front of me is strong. But he didn’t think he would be defeated. He just wanted to avoid fighting as much as possible because the losses would be too great.
‘The great plan that will lead to the fall of the Fallen Empire cannot be ruined like this.’
He also feels sick when the tower he worked on for over 10 years collapses. He pondered what suggestion to make. A conclusion was soon reached.
“… … “I will give you all the treasures of the Fallen Empire’s royal family.”
“How can you be sure of that?”
“that… … .”
The warlock trailed off.
Jeron said with a grin.
“You don’t think I know that they’re trying to trick me and swindle me? hey. Let’s at least take off those drab robes and talk. “It’s good if we can be honest with each other, right?”
“That’s not possible.”
“Then I will decide not to accept your offer.”
“for a moment!”
The moment Jeron lifted his finger, the warlock shouted. After biting his lip and thinking for a moment, he pulled back the hood of his robe.
‘Except for his slightly cheesy appearance, he’s an ordinary man in his early 30s, right?’
That’s how Jeron evaluated the warlock’s appearance.
The only distinguishing feature was the pupils. There was a six-pointed star drawn on the pupil, like Sake from the cartoon ‘Naxto’. However, with Jeron’s knowledge, it was impossible to find out the identity of the warlock through his eyes.
I decided to dig a little further.
“So what’s the offer?”
“My proposal is to kill all humans who enter the Everlost Mountains, including Duke Furion.”
“If you do just that, you will give me all the treasures of the Fallen Empire’s royal family?”
“Yes.”
Jeron snorted.
“Let’s say you get a rude offer. But how can you give me the imperial treasure of the Fallen Empire?”
“If you’re looking at me… … .”
“no. I’m not thinking about it, but I don’t understand it based on common sense. Common sense, I mean. The Fallen Empire’s imperial family is not a place where even dogs or cows can enter, and I certainly don’t mean to wait until you take down the Fallen Empire. “But how can I believe it?”
“Wow! I swear with my very being! “If you accept my offer, I will give you all the imperial treasures of the Fallen Empire!”
“How can you believe that?”
The warlock spoke as Jeron spoke with a heavy expression and voice.
“I have the authority to enter the imperial treasury… … !”
“You are a member of the imperial family.”
“… … !”
The warlock quickly cast magic. But Jeron was so close that her nose was touching, and he swung her sword and cut off the warlock’s wrist. The magic being cast was canceled and mana spread around.
But surprisingly, the magic being cast was not just one. The magic cast with the opposite hand was activated, and the warlock’s body flickered and appeared 100 meters away.
“Blink?”
“Kruk!”
“Protect your master!”
Trolls and troll shamans wearing black robes appeared and attacked Jeron.
“Stop it at all costs!”
“I don’t like this typical pattern.”

While ignoring the fleeing warlock for a moment, Jeron crushed the black-robed troll into a rat with the pressure of his sword and chopped off the heads of the troll shamans.
When I finally looked at the warlock again, he had turned into a small dot.
“under. “If you were caught, you would be searched.”
* * *
Erdin was panting heavily. Her vision was blurry and her legs were shaking. But compared to other knights, he was a nobleman. The knights were in a daze, their armor in tatters.
There were a total of 23 trolls that attacked them.
Among them, the number that Erdin killed was 10.
The remaining 13 animals were divided among the 20 knights to kill them.
“iced coffee. “I’m going to die.”
Erdin sat down and hit the troll’s body with his spear. The troll’s body was shaking with rigor mortis. He checked to see if he was not dead yet.
“Whew. Phew. Sir Erdin. “I’m sorry.”
One of the knights struggled to raise his upper body and spoke.
When Erdin looked at me asking what I was saying, he answered.
“Didn’t I underestimate you? “I apologize for that.”
“That could be true.”
I didn’t want to nitpick.
I had no intention of doing so.
Erdin wouldn’t have believed it if he were in the same situation.
At times like this, I just wanted to zone out and relax like knights.
‘If it weren’t for the knights, I would have died.’
I didn’t kill the 10 trolls alone.
The knights had a lot of experience dealing with monsters and provided assistance at the right time to create an environment where Erdin could be active. Thanks to this, he showed off his courage in taking out 10 of them, but if he had fought without them, he would have been the one to suffer.
‘Besides, if even one of them had been named, they would all have died.’
Fortunately(?) the trolls were all ordinary individuals.
“Oh, that really won’t work.”
Erdin told the knights to look out for a moment and then had a lucky breakfast. The knights who were watching took turns standing guard and filled the Auror Hall with Auror exercises.
* * *
Turn back time briefly before the fog clears.
Duke Furion waited for Erdin and the knights to kill the troll shaman. Eventually, as time passed and the fog began to clear, he gave the order to march.
The punitive force began to climb the mountain, shouting shouts.
The monsters that the warlock had placed in advance blocked the punitive force, but Duke Furion was at the forefront, swinging his sword fiercely and cutting them all down.
“Casting is complete!”
“Everyone get back!”
“The magic is activated! “Everyone, step back!”
The punitive force quickly retreated after hearing the order.
Golden lightning fell randomly on the monsters’ heads.
“Kra la la!”
There were some who survived by attacking the punitive force, but that only lasted for a moment. They all turned into hedgehogs and fell down with arrows.
“Advance again!”
“Corsair! “Advance!”
How much time had passed since the advance began again?
I could see mercenaries and mercenaries fighting monsters from afar.
“It’s an ally! “Help them!”
“The punitive force has arrived! “We lived!”
The mercenaries spotted the bravely approaching punitive force and shouted in joy. The fear that had taken over my head disappeared and I no longer ran away.
‘But where is the Lion Hearts mercenary group?’
They were the only ones not visible.
* * *
“What is this?”
Leon Pratz burst into laughter when he arrived at the bandits’ base. The corpses of the thieves were strewn everywhere. Everyone died after being attacked by someone. There may have been some who survived, but they must have run away or at least were not seen around.
“You probably didn’t run away because you were scared when you heard we were coming, right?”
When a foolish mercenary asked, Leon Pratz glared sharply and said,
“They know how to unleash monsters. If we were scared, we would have run away before we die. Or maybe they were digging a trap here. “Maybe someone arrived first and hit this spot.”
“Well, I see. sorry.”
It wasn’t just the bodies of the thieves.
As we went a little deeper, we also found the corpse of a monster.
‘What happened?’
Leon Pratz’s mind turned cold. The plan went awry. It was completely wrong. As originally planned, he should have met ‘him’ here and sacrificed the mercenaries. He also had to inflict damage that was close to annihilation to another mercenary group. However, ‘he’ was not visible and the bandit camp was empty.
It was right then.
Kwaang-!
A huge explosion was heard.
When Leon Pratz turned his head to look, a thick cloud of dust was rising.
“Going that way!”
* * *
“Whew. “This is very rat-like.”
Jeron chased after the warlock. But the guy managed to escape. He regenerated the severed wrist and constantly summoned monsters.
“Entangle!”
Tree roots grew from the ground and tied Jeron’s ankles.
Monsters attacked Jeron.
The sword light flashed and the monsters were torn into pieces.
“Ice Arrow! Thunderbolt!”
Ice and lightning flew. Everything was cut with a sword. With force, she tore off the tree roots that were tying her ankles, unleashed her divine magic, and approached the warlock in an instant. The warlock’s complexion turned pale.
“Where did this monster come from… … “Kwaak!”
My entire shoulder was blown off. Blood gushing from the cross section of the shoulder soaked the ground, and the fallen arm jumped like a live fish. However, it regenerates itself like a drag ball’s blood and runs away again.
“Let’s see how long you can run away!”
Jeron shouted, throwing his sword.
The warlock blushed as the sword disappeared from Jeron’s hand, but as soon as the sword flew towards him, he urgently used shield magic.
Pak-!
“Ugh!”
The shield magic was broken and the inside was shaken. But what was even more surprising was that the falling sword flew back and pierced his chest.
“… … !”
“I barely caught it.”
Jeron landed at the fallen warlock’s bedside. His sword was drawn into his hand and he swung his arm to cut off the warlock’s neck in one go.
Suddenly!
The warlock’s head fell off. He caused samadhi evolution and burned his head. I felt like that alone wasn’t enough. Just in case, he even destroyed the warlock’s mana hall.
“Is this enough?”
I did this, but if I survived, I had no choice but to admit it.
