Chapter 74 – Death and Resurrection

Episode 74 – Death and Resurrection

At that time, in the wide cavity in front of the passage leading to the deepest part where the heart of the immortal demon beast Levios was sealed, the clash between the necromancer Huscular and the academy’s dean Gion Cruz was in full swing.

Thousands of revived undead troops rushed in with only one goal.

The Gion Cruise in front of it is as dangerous as a straw boat facing a tsunami.

However, the moment his great sword crosses space.

Kwaaaaa!

A huge slash accompanied by a huge shock wave swept away hundreds of undead.

The only entities that could face it safely were the Bone Dragon made from Jackie Chan’s corpse and the magicians and knights who had achieved great heights during their lifetime.

─Clararalala!

As if to repay the slash, the Bone Dragon fired his breath.

The breath of condensed corrosive poison attacked Gion Cruise, melting everything in front of it.

He raised his great sword.

“There is no way!”

Unity of body and sword.

The state of becoming one with the sword.

However, Gion Cruise goes beyond even that and brings the ideal nothingness imprinted in the soul into reality.

The force that covered his great sword instantly grew to a size of over a hundred meters.

This is the martial spirit established by Gion, amplification.

He struck down the large sword.

Despite its enormous size, the giant sword moved faster than a flash of light. It seems as if we are deviating from the laws of physics.

Coo coo coo coo…

Finally, the breath and the giant sword collided.

The power of the breath was enormous, but the giant sword did not flinch, but simply came down and extinguished the breath as if nothing had happened.

In the aftermath, over a thousand undead were turned into a handful of powder.

Of course, it is reorganized and stands up again through the necromancer’s vast magical power.

The fight went like this for 30 minutes.

“Haaam… When will it end?”

Ethan Gloucester, who was watching the fight next to the necromancer, could not bear the boredom and let out a small yawn.

As much as he was negative about this operation in the first place, he was tired of the sluggish situation.

The necromancer reprimanded Ethan.

“If you’re bored, help me. “We must quickly obtain Levios’ heart.”

“Why? I was against this operation from the beginning. “I guess it was you who said you were confident?”

“As an apostle, you have a duty to resurrect Levios. “Do your part.”

“That’s ridiculous.” I am satisfied that I forcibly activated the illusion maze barrier. “I have no intention of going any further.”

Isolating the entire academy by intervening in the illusory maze barrier deep inside would have been impossible without his exceptional spatial magic.

With that alone, it is safe to say that Ethan has fulfilled his role sufficiently.

The necromancer looked at him blankly at his firm his refused and then asked a question.

“But what is that mask? If there was a jet-black veil, you wouldn’t have to worry about your identity being discovered, right?”

The jet-black veil is an item imbued with the power of the goddess of darkness, completely hiding not only the wearer’s appearance her but also their her.

This means that there is no need to cover your face with a mask.

Ethan chuckled and adjusted his mask.

“Does it fit well? “I tried to get it this time.”

“It’s a useless action.”

Ethan, who had been showing off as if he was showing off, frowned at the corpse magician’s cold reaction.

How dare you belittle the mask paired with Hyun, it is definitely not suitable for a necromancer.

“Under! I knew it would happen. I don’t understand at all. Even if I deal with you, it’s my loss. “Think whatever you want.”

Ethan ignored the necromancer and was lost in his own thoughts.

‘What is Hyun doing right now?’

We still don’t know exactly whether Hyeon is a student or a professor, but since he is on vacation, it is unlikely that he will remain at the academy.

He is probably traveling around the entire empire looking for useful opportunities this time.

Suddenly, my gaze turned to the side of the necromancer.

There was a female prosecutor there.

The pale-faced woman, wearing leather armor and a sword at her waist, was beautiful and noble despite her undead status.

She was none other than the swordswoman Yuliana, Cain Klaus’s lover and the corpse magician’s bodyguard.

Juliana just stood still like a doll even under Ethan’s gaze. Because she is designed to respond only to the safety of the Necromancer.

‘Isn’t it about time it comes?’

Ethan thought about the story in the game and waited for the upcoming event.

Step by step! Step by step!

Not long after, a small sign of presence was felt from the passage behind her.

A man was approaching there.

When he finally got out of the passage, Yuliana’s eyes her, who had been waiting like her doll, moved towards him.

“Yuliana…”

The man, Cain, distorted his face grimly as he looked at his long-lost lover, whom he had reunited with after 10 years.

Naturally, the next thing my gaze turned to was the necromancer, the culprit.

“I will kill you today.”

Kwaaang!

As soon as the words were finished, Cain’s regime, which had moved a short distance away, leaving an afterimage, collided with Yuliana’s sword.

It was aimed at the necromancer, but Yuliana intervened at the right time and stopped it.

The moment when Cain bites his teeth.

“You almost died, right? “Be careful, right?”

Ethan, who had predicted her surprise attack and had left, vented his dissatisfaction.

Even if he is strong enough to be considered the strongest among first-year students, he cannot be safe from the fist of Cain, who is over level 300.

This means that even if it does not hit directly, the aftermath alone is fatal.

Of course, that’s none of Cain’s business.

“Yuliana. “I will set you free soon.”

“Are you chewing my words? “Is this something else?”

As the successor to a prestigious European family and owning a business, no one has looked down on him so much. Although Ethan felt refreshed by the treatment, he did not make the mistake of provoking Cain.

If I met someone like this on Earth, I would immediately punish them, but I can’t do that now.

Ethan had a clear understanding of the topic.

If you act recklessly in this place where the world’s top monsters run rampant, you could die without even meeting Hyeon properly.

‘You can’t do that.’

Ethan watched the fight between Yuliana and Cain from a distance.

Phut! Pababababang!

Cain’s voiceless and shapeless fist aimed at the necromancer. Yuliana blocked his path and parried her attack, relying only on her sixth sense.

When you reach level 300, the upper level battle opens and you develop something called a trait.

Traits give unique properties to magical power.

Cain’s trait was that he was intangible and not only invisible, but he was also free to change form, allowing for unpredictable types of attacks.

If Yuliana had not reached an equal level, she would have been defeated without even being able to confirm the beginning and end of her fist level.

She let out a stream of water around her sword, offsetting the destructive power contained in her fist.

From then on, a lackluster fight ensued, and Cain, who came to the thought that if things continued like this she might have wasted her chance again, smiled viciously and placed her hand on her chest.

“It ends here. Everything.”

Exciting!

Intangible magic was sucked into the heart and spread throughout the body along with the blood.

If you do this, the sense of unity between your body and magical energy will further increase, resulting in synergistic effects in physical ability and all other areas.

However, because it was a heavy burden on the heart, there was a risk that it could not withstand it and burst if overused.

Cain rushed towards Yuliana, capturing her sense of omnipotence that overflowed from her entire body.

Kwagwagwagwagwang!

Dozens of blows rain down on a single punch.

The intangible blow went beyond human limitations and struck the blind spots of the entire body at the same time.

Yuliana quickly blocks the attack, but it becomes more and more dangerous.

Even after becoming a doll, she maintained the inactivity she had in life, but Cain continued to grow stronger during her ten years.

As much as she was a lover, she knew what her weaknesses were, and she knew how to break them down.

Even if she had just fought without overexerting herself, she would have easily resulted in Cain’s victory.

Nevertheless, the reason she became so impatient was because she wanted to cut out even the 1% chance that she could miss her Yuliana.

For that, Cain is willing to risk her life.

Kwaang!

Another collision occurred.

Every time she shared her battle with Yuliana, memories of her bloomed in Cain’s mind.

There were happy things, and there were sad things, but either way, nothing was important. Every minute and every second spent with her was hope for Cain, and also a milestone in her life.

Even at this moment, she made him feel like he was being rewarded for her ten years of waiting for her.

So, the fight continued for about 10 minutes.

Step by step! Step by step!

Once again, a silver-haired, golden-eyed man wearing a mask appeared from the back passage, pretending to be someone.

“Hyeon!?”

Ethan burst into cheers at the appearance of Hyun, who he thought would not be at the academy.

The necromancer attempted to give instructions to Ethan while dealing with Gion Cruz and Cain at the same time.

“I will take charge of Hyeon. Never touch it! Do you understand?”

“… Yes.”

If only Ethan hadn’t come out with a warning before I could finish my business.

The necromancer narrowed his eyes.

“I guess we have to take action.”

He secretly planted a Death Knight in Ethan’s shadow.

*

“Stop right there!”

Wow!

Before I could barely find Cain and approach him in time, the entire space began to weigh on me along with a crackling mechanical voice.

When I raised my head, a man wearing a mask with the same design as me was looking down arrogantly.

I guessed its identity.

‘Ethan Gloucester.’

This unique attack method of applying pressure to the entire space is his specialty.

If it were me normally, I would have been neutralized with this one shot.

But now, due to the rape declaration her, her strength has increased sevenfold. I just felt like I was wearing a sandbag.

As we stood face to face without moving a single inch, Ethan smiled as if he was satisfied.

“Ahahaha! Is it holding up better than you think? “Is there a hidden trick?”

“…”

“Why don’t you say something?”

Ethan’s current condition was strange. He seemed a little excited, and also looked like he was expecting something.

The sparkling blue eyes give a somewhat eerie feeling.

‘There’s something strange about the way you talk.’

How does it feel to see friends who claim to have been born in a man’s body with a woman’s soul?

After thinking about it, I thought that this was not the time, so I decided to ignore it and kicked the ground.

Ethan willingly accepted even that.

“What. There’s no need for conversation, right? Good! Come and see!”

I want to crush your confident face.

With that wind in mind, I delivered a crushing blow.

Damn it!

My fist hit the space right in front of Ethan.

It was a defensive wall created by partially dividing the space itself. The wall broke easily, but thankfully it didn’t hit Ethan.

I was about to make a follow-up hit, but I quickly backed away from the cold feeling on the top of my head.

Just in the nick of time, the space itself collapsed, creating a large crater where I was.

Ethan grinned, floating dozens of spheres of space above his hands.

“Why don’t you stop this too!”

At the same time, the bombing fell.
