Atasia looked at the demon wizard with narrowed eyes.
Even getting close makes me feel nauseous and disgustingly thick demonic energy flows out.
It means that he is the guy who created the summoning circle floating above the royal palace.
‘It will take some time for Behemoth to be summoned.’
Demons are not insignificant beings that are summoned simply by offering many sacrifices. Even if they sacrifice 666 children alive, they will not be able to open a passage between Astral and Middle Earth through which the devil can cross.
‘That’s why I stole the evil god’s relic.’
Evil spirits and devils are the same being. It was just something people changed depending on their tastes. It was also an understatement to say that one could not dare to compare with God.
“It’s a relic of the last evil god.”
“oh! Isn’t it a relic of the evil god Cuffs?!”
The demon wizard took the necklace that Atasia held out.
With this, three artifacts were gathered in one place. If the summoning circle absorbs all the sacrifices, Behemoth will descend using the evil god’s relics as a medium.
“What are you going to do now?”
“I am… … .”
Just as Atasia was about to respond, a huge ax fell on her head.
“… … !”
Kwaduk-!

The Holy Knights and new soldiers of the Ionic Church entered the interior through the castle gate. The capital guards and knights moved with them. The Holy Knights and new recruits were experts at exterminating the undead, but they needed someone who knew the structure of the capital well and could guide them. Since they were exhausted after escaping from the capital, they wanted to help in some other way.
Meanwhile, at the alumni gate, there was a reunion ceremony between father and son.
“It’s been a while.”
“long time no see.”
Cardinal Ferdain smiled bitterly. This was his son whom he had not seen in several years. He wanted to greet her with a hug, but that wasn’t the situation.
“… … “Are you a colleague?”
Cardinal Ferdine glanced at Erdin, Jeanne, and Mayenne standing behind Logan and asked.
“yes. These are precious colleagues. “There is one more person who hasn’t arrived yet.”
“I’d like to at least introduce you later.”
Cardinal Ferdain tugged on the horse’s reins. The Inquisitors moved after him. Soon Erdin approached Logan and spoke.
“if… … ?”
“yes. Cardinal of the Church… … “No, it’s my father.”
“I should have at least said hello.”
“The relationship is not that good. Rather, when will God’s Messenger arrive?”
Logan smiled awkwardly and spoke. Erdin noticed that he didn’t seem to want to talk about family relationships.
“It will probably arrive within a few hours?”
It took quite a while to escape the capital.
As a rule of thumb, 2 hours? 3 hours? I think it’s been a while.
“okay.”
Logan said with a sigh.
* * *
Those who could not escape from the capital hid inside their homes or gathered in one place to deal with the undead.
“shit! When is the rescue team coming?!”
“Where is the time to complain now! “During that time, at least hit those damn zombies with a stick one more time!”
People broke the legs of tables and made them into weapons. The zombies moved slowly, so they were easy to deal with. But it was only at the level of pushing them away. The way to kill a zombie is to smash its head with its brain or break its joints so that it cannot move.
They blocked people from entering the house with furniture, but there were holes and gaps, and the zombies’ arms reached out through them.
puck! puck!
I hit my arm hard with a stick. The body, which quickly decomposed and became a zombie, could not withstand the beating of the club and fell. But just because his arm was broken didn’t mean they were tired or unable to move.
As time passed, more and more people gathered.
“There were too many people!”
“The door can’t bear the weight like this!”
“Bring the closet!”
“Like the kitchen table!”
People who were hiding inside the house to stop the zombie horde shouted urgently. We blocked the doors and windows with furniture, but it was becoming increasingly difficult. Don’t even touch the zombie’s fingernails.
Just like mercenaries, you can quickly cut out wounds and treat them with potions, but ordinary people wouldn’t have that kind of courage, and they wouldn’t keep potions in their homes.
“Oh oh! Jackson!”
“Ahhh… … !”
The most painful moment was when a friend, family member, or lover who was laughing and chatting just a few hours ago turned into a zombie and came to visit me.
People who lived close to the temple hurriedly entered the temple. The priests in the temple used sacred magic to prevent the invasion of the undead. It was relatively safe compared to other places, but as time passed, the undead became stronger and the situation turned around.
“Ghoul!”
“what? “A ghoul?!”
Ghouls were enhanced zombies. It was a dangerous undead that ordinary people could never face due to its strength and speed exceeding that of an adult man. As the ghouls appeared, people started dying indiscriminately again. He filled his stomach with the brains, blood, and flesh of the living and added new undead companions.
“T-Wrong… … !”
“We will all die!”
At a time when everyone was in despair, the Holy Knights of the Ionic Church and new soldiers came through the east gate.
Wearing sacred flames, they gave rest to the undead.
“It’s the Ionic Church!”
“iced coffee… … God has not abandoned us!”
The Holy Knights and new soldiers advanced to the royal palace, rescuing the living people.

“oh my god! “This kind of evil energy exists in the world!”
Felom Might, leader of The Sun Holy Knights, was astonished when he saw Behemoth’s summoning circle. I could feel the evil energy from afar, but the closer I got, the stronger the energy became as time passed.
“Recite the sacred prayer!”
As Cardinal Bedric shouted, the Holy Knights and new soldiers advanced while reciting prayers. However, rather than weakening, the energy of the summoning circle grew stronger by absorbing sacrifices at a faster rate.
Cardinal Bedric thought it was necessary to first evacuate the citizens and gave orders. Soon, Cardinal Ferdin arrived. He, too, could not help but be astonished by the energy of the summoning circle.
“I think it’s a demon summoning circle.”
“Is there any way to stop that?”
“If the Pope comes… … No, I don’t think I can stop it even if the saint comes with me.”
“still… … .”
Cardinal Bedric tried to say something, but was unable to think of a suitable way, so his words became slurred.
“Then Cardinal Bonn will prioritize finding the immoral person.”
“All right.”
Cardinal Ferdine left the rest to Cardinal Bedric and took out the holy relic. Atasia’s energy was detected in the holy relic. When she told her interrogators of her heresy, they pursued her. Cardinal Ferdain also followed the inquisitors without missing them.
Atasia, a former second saint and cardinal, was with the demon master.
The heretic inquisitor who had been chasing her was lying dead and cold at the feet of the two people. Soon, the demon master discovered Cardinal Ferdain and the Inquisitors and swung the staff of the evil god Necrom, causing all the corpses around, including the corpse of the Inquisitor, to rise.
Cardinal Ferdain could not contain his anger.
“dare… … !”
“Giggles. “These great offerings keep coming.”
“… … .”
The demon wizard laughed bitterly. Atasia bit his lip slightly.
“What would you like to do?”
“We handle everything.”
“Atasia Daylight! You who turned your back on God and committed immorality! “Be judged!”
As the Inquisitors moved, the undead stopped them.
The unclean things will collapse and disappear before the power of God!
However, an incredible sight unfolded. The undead raised by the demon wizard were so agile and powerful that they could not even be compared to ordinary zombies or ghouls. no. The Inquisitors were weakened.
“Are you just trying to stop me like an Inquisitor?”
The demon wizard had cursed him with the evil spirit cuff necklace.
A weakening curse, a slowing curse, a dizzying curse, etc… … .
Dozens of curses invaded the Inquisitors’ torch.
“Big, big…” … !”
The heresy inquisitors fell one by one. Cardinal Ferdain urgently recited a sacred prayer, but Atasia used sacred magic to interfere.
“Crack-!”
“Please die here.”
“Why have you abandoned God? And yet she was once a second saint!”
“I didn’t abandon God. You’re still following God’s will. “As proof, my divine power is still the same, right?”
“… … !”
Now that I think about it, it was like that. If Atasia had committed immorality, he would not have been able to perform divine magic. If he had practiced evil magic, he would have rather not even suspected it.
‘Uh, how come…? … ?’
An undead inquisitor rushed towards Cardinal Ferdain, who was in shock.
An ax was swung to split Cardinal Ferdain’s head in half.
“omg?”
Kang-!
Just before the ax split the head in half, the spear struck the ax’s blade.
“Step back!”
It was Erdin.
Cardinal Ferdain nodded with a pale face. It wasn’t because his head was almost split open by his axe. He was shocked because God did not take away the power of the apostate.
Sigh!
Mayen unfolded the witch’s secret arts and bound the undead, the demon wizard, and Atasia. The demon master and Atasia easily escaped their bondage, but they were not undead. Jeanne and Logan’s joint attack gave rest to the undead.
“A very fine offering… … !”
Erdin threw his dagger at the chuckling demon mage.
The demon wizard urgently cast a defensive spell. However, the dagger tore through the defensive spell like paper and lodged itself in the demon master’s face.
“Keu, kuuh…” … ?”
The demon wizard died in vain.
Atasia was embarrassed.
“phew. “It’s a good thing I received it from Jeron, just in case.”
The identity of the dagger was a magic-nullifying artifact obtained from the Western Continent.
There was no way that a modern-day demon wizard could have prevented such an enormous artifact that even nullified the Grand Wizard’s magic.
“Tch.”
Atasia collected all the evil artifacts from the demon wizard and ran away. He said the party tried to chase him, but they could not because there were still many undead left.
“father.”
“… … “I’m sorry.”
Cardinal Ferdain sighed.
For the first time, my faith was shaken and I could not come to my senses.
“Everything goes according to God’s will.”
Logan put his hands together towards his father and followed after Atasia.
* * *
Around the time Atasia collected the evil god’s relics and escaped, Jeron arrived at the south gate.
The demon beast, which stuck out its tongue, collapsed because it could not bear its trembling legs.
After getting off the beast’s back, Jeron gave the beast a light pat and thanked him for his hard work. She muttered as she looked at the gate and walls.
“That’s bullshit.”
The undead were everywhere. The evolved zombie-ghoul found Xeron and rushed at him. They were all chopped up without even being able to get close.
A thin sword was pulled out from Jeron’s fingertips.
“Besides, what is that?”
A dark red magic circle was floating in the air. It’s such a huge and evil energy that it makes your skin tingle. It must be Behemoth’s summoning circle.
“I hope I’m not late.”
Jeron ran into the castle gate wearing a self-defense device.
