Episode 308 – Academy (41)
Lecardo said, pointing to the paladins.
“We should torture those guys to get some information out of them.”
“Yes···? “Are you really planning on messing with the religious bastards?”
Lecardo looked at his subordinate’s frightened appearance with a straight face. He glared and shouted.
“This idiot…! Who the hell do you think I am! “Do you think I, an 8-star mage, waited because I was afraid of those bastards?”
“Oh, no!”
Wow! Wow!
Lecardo growled as he mercilessly slapped his face several times.
“It’s just annoying! It’s annoying because it’s obvious that it will stick to you like a bug! So I just left it alone! Do you understand?”
“Ouch…! Yes yes! Sorry! Sorry!”
“Tsk. “I was planning to deal with Choi Si-Woo quietly, if possible, but I had no luck.”
He pulled out his staff and straightened his shoulders. He walked confidently towards the paladins and spoke.
“But it would be better if there were less hassle. Activate the barrier!”
“Yes, yes!”
The magic circle that had been set up while waiting for Choi Si-woo for several days radiated light.
Googungung!
A hemispherical curtain rose from the floor. A barrier was formed around the hill where Choi Si-woo entered.
Now no one can escape from here. Of course, communication was impossible.
I walked boldly towards the hill.
Chaang!
At the same time, the paladins with their swords drawn shouted.
“Who are you?”
Lecardo laughed at them. He looked at me as if it were the same and said.
“Things I don’t even know the topic of. “Kneel down everyone.”
“Yes!”
Dozens of warlocks swung their wands, and black lightning struck.
*
Le Cardo sat on the great bone throne and crossed his legs. He looked down arrogantly at the tortured paladins.
“Ugh…!”
The blood-covered paladins glared, but they only snorted. They laughed and mocked them.
“For an ignorant swordsman, your body is strong. Increase the intensity.”
“Yes!”
Lecardo’s men waved their canes.
Squeeze!
Black lightning struck the air and burned my muscles.
“Turn it off!”
Lightning struck continuously. The skin cracked and colorful tendons sprouted.
Snapping. There was a sound of teeth crunching in my jaw. My whole body was shaking and I was struggling in pain.
Wow!
“Ouch…!”
The thorns on the whip pricked the flesh. The warlock who was striking like crazy shouted.
“What on earth is that crypt?!”
There were constant screams, but no one answered. Le Cardo, who was watching this, shook his head.
“Tsk. It’s as tough as a bug. Just make him an idiot and forcibly extract his memories.”
The subordinate who stopped, looked at me and said.
“Well… If I do it, there will be a lot of damaged memories. Do you mind?”
“Ha.. You incompetent bastard! “Get out of the way!”
“Yes.”
Lecardo got up from his throne and walked leisurely. He stood in front of the paladin with an arrogant expression and spoke.
“I will mercifully give you one last chance. “What is that crypt and where has Choi Si-woo gone?”
“Flaw···! “The goddess will punish you!”
Haha! Goddess? Do you think this body would be afraid of something like God? Even the strongest saint in your church is like a toy to me. Bagatelle!”
Wow!
Le Cardo struck her cheek with his cane and clicked her tongue.
“Anyway. They’re so ignorant that I can’t communicate with them. If you want to die like that, I will do as you wish.”
Grumble!
Black flames flickered in his grasp. It’s as if death has been embodied. An ominous flame burned. Flames shaped like skulls flew through the air.
Just before reaching the paladin’s head.
Gugung…!
The earth shook.
“Hmm?”
Le Cardo stopped and looked away. The mound of dirt shook as if it would collapse. I began to feel signs of presence in the unoccupied cave.
One person, two people… The number increased in an instant. Dozens of people walked out of the crypt.
He let out a cool laugh.
“It’s finally here. They’re like slow-moving slugs. “I will hold you accountable for making this body wait.”
*
Siwoo, who came out first, looked around.
“···Under.”
He saw the elves kneeling, covered in blood. The people in black surrounding them grinned. There was no difficulty in judging the situation just by looking at it.
As soon as I came out of the rift, I saw the tortured paladins…
I felt dirty.
Ttudeuk. Drumming.
He twisted his neck left and right. I spoke to the warlock who seemed to be the leader.
“Is it you?”
“What?”
“I asked if you were the one who made the Paladins like that.”
“Flaw! So what should we do? That must be what your future looks like. “Kkkk.”
The bastard curled up the corners of his mouth slyly. I laughed too when I saw that.
“Okay. “It’s only when there’s something worth killing like you do that we’re comfortable together.”
“Kill me? Haha…! “He’s slow to grasp the situation.”
Thud!
The warlock lowered his staff and shouted furiously.
“Ignorant! Can’t you see the magic circles spread everywhere? This is already my territory! How dare this idiot mess with my Black Death Tower! “Please let me beg you to kill me!”
The murderousness soared in the guy’s eyes. He glared with red eyes and waved his staff.
Googungung!
The floor vibrated. Various strange patterns radiated light, and a muted barrier surrounded the creature.
But he didn’t care.
Moonlight type.
The distance was narrowed with just one step.
“Uh···?”
In a world that has slowed down, its eyes slowly widened. The arrogant expression on his face from beginning to end began to crumple.
I extended my power to the guy whose mouth was wide open as if he was shocked.
Kwaaaaa!!
Resistant magic built up in the river. That was enough.
The barrier was shattered in a single blow. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the collar.
“Gagging?!”
He said as he lifted the struggling guy into the air.
“Say it again, you bastard.”
“Turn it off!”
He raised his magic power as if struggling, but it was insignificant. The moment we allowed distance to the swordsman with anti-magic power, it was already over.
A wind filled with magical power swept the surroundings. All magical phenomena were reduced to nothingness.
‘He’s a weak guy.’
If it had been the strength of the Blue Orcs, anti-magic power would not have worked. The level of will contained in magical power itself was different.
I realized this while fighting the blue orc. Not all 8 stars are at the same level. The level of power at the beginning and the end was different. It was safe to think that it was a completely different level.
“Ugh..! Let it go, let it go!”
“Speak informally? How stupid are you? Or are you just slow to grasp the situation?”
“How dare a bug-like bastard… Kwaaaaa!”
The infiltrated Hon Yuan Qi shattered the meridians. Specialized in tearing and breaking, the energy of shredding even turned Danjeon into powder.
“Kweeeeek! “Wow!”
He threw the man, who was vomiting blood and writhing in pain, on the floor.
Pow!
The guy who was shaking raised his head. He glared while gritting his molars.
“This person···! How dare you touch me! “I am the mage of curse!”
“Under.”
I still can’t come to my senses.
For a mage, his learning ability was poor. Or is it because he is always looked up to as a superior, he doesn’t know the ups and downs? Then there was nothing I could do. I have no choice but to kindly instill etiquette.
Since ancient times, a falcon has been a medicine for beast-like people.
Pow!
He kicked him in the chin with his foot. Starting from the shoulders to the shins. I stepped on it little by little. The sound of bones crunching was pleasing to the ears.
“Aaaaa!!”
I kicked the loud head. Something pure white flew out. It was a shattered piece of tooth.
The one who was curled up and crawling on the floor like a bug shouted.
“Ugh! Well, that’s it! Stop! W, let’s end it here!”
“What?”
Have you lost your mind? How can you say something like that while being beaten one-sidedly?
When I gently lifted his foot, he freaked out. He fell back, crawling on the ground. The guy who was shaking was shocked. He must have been conscious of the attention being paid to him from all directions, so he tightened the corners of his eyes.
“Profit! “There’s no use killing me!”
“Haha… Why? “Have you made a life vessel?”
Life Vessel. A secret art of storing part of the soul in a special container. It is a black magic that revives you as a lich when you die. It is a difficult magic that requires all kinds of rare materials, but it was possible for an 8-star warlock.
“Yes! If you kill me…! I will return from the dead and take revenge on you! I will definitely make you regret it! But!”
He confidently shouted at a subject with sharp teeth.
“If it ends like this. “I will forget my resentment!”
I laughed out loud. How can you be so rude when asking for your life? Moreover, the life deep within the eyes remained the same.
A bastard who has forgotten his resentment. It was obvious that even if I saved him, he would take revenge.
It was absurd that this guy would threaten me.
‘Four days.’
Damn it!
He said, aiming at the guy with the brilliance wrapped around his sword.
“There used to be a demon who stretched like you. “He was a cocky guy who said he didn’t care if he died… Don’t you wonder what happened?”
“W-what! That!”
The guy’s complexion turned white. I felt it instinctively. If you get hit by a four-pointer, the Life Vessel and everything else will disappear.
I couldn’t even withstand the energy of foreign media. 8 star warlock? There was no way.
Gulp.
“Now, wait! Please save me… No, save me, please save me! “Please save me!”
Dump! The guy on his knees bowed his head. Unlike before, I was truly scared and begged.
“Late. “You will find out what happened to that demon when you meet him in hell.”
Whoa!
A straight line of light stretched high into the sky. It flew endlessly, even piercing the clouds.
The unknown warlock on the trail disappeared without leaving a trace.
I turned my attention to the remaining guys. Their eyes trembled mercilessly. He threw away his staff with a pale face.
Thump thump!
Starting with the quick-witted guy. Everyone knelt down.
“Please save me! “I will do whatever you ask!”
He spoke to the paladins who followed him.
“It would be better to torture them and find out what they are doing.”
“All right! “Siwoo!”
Unlike before, military discipline was tighter. Their eyes were full of respect.
This is not because they are mercenaries hired directly by the saint. I was amazed at the overwhelming force.
***
Somewhere in heaven.
Goddess Freya quietly closed her eyes. She leaned back on the white chair.
She sat blankly and spoke in a whisper.
“…I overcame it.”
The ordeal is over. The energy of foreign media flowing in was dissipated.
All that remains is to decide how to use your divine power. Now that she had overcome the ordeal, she deserved compensation.
