Helmut
Episode 291
[what… … ji.]
The moment a change occurred in the barrier, Kantra suddenly looked back.
Although it looks a bit stupid, it is a monster powerful enough to become the ruler of the area called Kant. Because of that, he sensitively felt changes in the barrier.
In an instant, magical energy arose all over Kantra’s body, as if he were wearing armor.
A gust of wind spread rapidly around the area.
Helmut raised Bis to defend himself against the ice particles attacking me.
Fass!
The ice particles carrying the demon energy were blocked by the bis and crumbled. If it had been hit squarely, it was sharp enough to cause blood to bleed from the entire body.
Kantra’s gaze fell on Area, who was tearing up a scroll from beyond. It’s the type of magic he hates. Something warm.
[human… … The back of my head… … Aiming for… … There was!]
As expected of the humans sent by Elaga, they are extremely cunning.
The guy I faced a little while ago was quite strong. It moves quickly, so I don’t think it can be easily defeated.
In that case, deal with the guy who is targeting your back first.
Kantra’s entire body turned backwards. The magic energy that exploded from his body dug deep into the surrounding sea. Like water in a pot boiling, the sea in the area boiled as if it would explode.
Alea witnessed the scene and widened her eyes.
‘What is that.’
It was a huge wave. As if a tsunami had suddenly occurred, the waves soared into the sky and were coming towards her.
If this continues, I will be swallowed by the waves and thrown into the sacred barrier.
Water will flow without resistance from the barrier, but Area is different. If you hit the barrier, you cannot use magic, so you have to survive being swept away by the ice-cold water with your bare body.
Even though I couldn’t completely dry my frozen body, it was like a lightning strike.
‘Where did Helmut go? no way… … No, you should avoid it anyway!’
Area hurriedly took out the magic stone and absorbed it as if breaking it.
The magic power that had been lost upon entering the barrier was replenished in an instant.
It was an expensive magic stone. Area smashed three magic stones in succession as if to show off his wealth.
If you absorb it too aggressively, a lot of it will disperse into the air, but you can’t do anything about it.
The shadow of the incoming waves was oppressive, as if it would break.
Unless you are a fish, there is no way to survive being swept away by those waves without magic.
“Wings of the wind.”
When the waves collapsed and came close to hitting her, Area finally chanted a spell.
Together with the golem, she soared vertically. She deflected her wave just as the boat-shaped golem narrowly missed it.
The wave passed right through the sacred barrier. Before she could catch her breath, Area looked up and gasped.
“Fucking curved surface.”
The sacred barrier has a round shape. Because of this, when you go up, it bends inward. If we continue like this, we will collide with the sacred barrier.
Area changed the direction of the wind and flew to the other side of the barrier with the golem.
She took out the magic stone again and broke it. As she rose upward and neared the sacred barrier, her magic power was rapidly depleted.
‘Where did Helmut go?’
I wasn’t anxious. The belief that he couldn’t have died.
But it was not the time to look for Helmut. On the other side, I saw a sea turtle with its golden shell flashing.
The eyes looking at Alea were murderous. A column of water rose up like a waterspout around Kantra’s body.
The thin water column stretched towards the area like a whip.
Area adjusted the golem to avoid it.
But the water column turned again and hit her golem.
“Wind Curtain!”
As soon as Area could recite the spell, a column of water hit the membrane directly.
bang!
If it had been hit correctly, the fall would have been unavoidable due to the impact.
Alea narrowed her eyes.
‘The ends of the water column are connected. ‘I can’t believe you know how to handle water like this.’
At the center of the water column was a long, extending demonic energy. The method was to draw water around the demonic energy, create a water column, and manipulate it like a whip.
If you can handle demonic energy well, it is possible to hit the air with a long whip.
Because it was near the sacred barrier, its power was weakened to this extent.
The water column struck again as if it would break Area’s barrier.
Thump thump!
The barrier seemed to be broken. The entire goal shook from the impact of the repeated hits. I thought I knew how to get rid of it.
“Blade of the Wind.”
The water column was cut off by a sharp wind. As soon as the magic energy was disconnected, the water column fell straight down.
But Kantra’s attacks did not stop.
[Fly… … same… … human! Drop it… … weekend!]
A water column, or rather a stream of water, thinner than before flew towards Area again.
bang! bang! bang!
If cutting and dropping a stream of water is magic, then this stream of water is also a type of magic. However, it is natural that Kantra’s magic power is greater than Area’s magic power.
Even after entering and exiting the sacred barrier, Area was in a state where her magic power was somewhat exhausted.
Area shattered the sixth magic stone. If this continues, it will end with just destroying the magic stone.
‘We need to get away from the sacred barrier… … . ‘It would be better without the golem.’
It would be suicidal to go down to the sea where it could directly affect you.
Area flying alone is easier to avoid and consumes less magical power. He could have disappeared using stealth magic.
But there is absolutely no room to insert the golem.
‘What on earth is Helmut doing?’
Just as Area was dissatisfied, a loud sound was heard.
Cuguagagaga!
The water column flying through the air lost its strength and fell down.
‘what?’
Area looked. The only darkness in this gray and silver sea of the north.
A dark, light seal stood on Kantra’s shell. In his hand, the gray blade emits an eerie light.
Kantra has floated close to the surface. Even the whirlpool coiling around like a snake could not protect him.
While Kantra was distracted by Area, Helmut took the opportunity to inflict a fatal wound on the bastard.
Helmut’s blow, fired as if it were a single arrow, split the current and split the sea.
And soon it burrowed into the back of Kantra’s neck.
Wow!
Kantra’s black blood splattered everywhere.
The venom-like blood melted the hem of Helmut’s clothes.
But he stood unwavering. As if building a wall to block a waterway, the vis emanating from Helmut’s body created a vacuum where he was standing.
The magic energy that was exploded from Kantra, who was crying out in pain, was quickly purified in the air.
For Helmut, it was rather a battlefield free from the influence of magic.
“You can’t ignore this side.”
Helmut twisted his sword.
Kantra’s body shook as he tried to dive below the surface. It seemed like her sword had penetrated her painful area and she couldn’t move.
Helmut threatened.
“Don’t move. “You wouldn’t be able to survive even if your head was cut off, right?”
A guy like Naho would have gone crazy regardless of whether his head was cut off or not, but Kantra just stopped moving.
Helmut stared at the suppressed guy with strange eyes.
No matter how distracted I was by Area, I had no idea that I could so easily subdue the ruler of an area.
Although he was quite good at handling water, his movements were a bit slow when fighting. As if I had never fought a proper battle.
‘Is it because he is the weakest among the rulers of your area?’
No, not just for that reason.
Although Helmut felt alarmed when dealing with it, he was not in danger of his life.
Even if there was no guarantee of winning by fighting back, I decided that I could at least bide my time and run away.
And Helmut’s sword pierced Kantra’s magical energy.
He could have mortally wounded the bastard. He was incredibly easy compared to when he fought Naho. What that means.
‘You’ve become stronger. I.’
Looking at his hands, Helmut realized something.
It was a strange feeling, like a dawn.
Darian was like an infinitely high mountain. But before I knew it, I had reached the place where he was standing.
It is not clear how it was done. However, the several life-threatening experiences and the moments of walking up the stairs one by one led Helmut to that point.
Overcoming death is going against one absolute law of nature.
Helmut did it several times. The trials given to Helmut did not kill him, and because of that, he was able to grow.
And his growth has reached the point where he has surpassed his teacher’s shadow.
“Helmut, good job.”
A shadow fell from above. Before he knew it, Area was approaching him and spoke to him from the top of the golem.
Her body, which had been cold and wet, was now dry and dry. But her lips were still blue.
“It looks like the adamantium is working properly.”
“Okay, now all that’s left is to go back.”
Area’s eyes followed Helmut’s sword.
Blood was leaking from Kantra’s neck, where the sword was still deeply embedded.
However, if he were the ruler of the area, there would be no way he would die from wounds like this. The guy felt strangely passive. Like he doesn’t know what to do.
Helmut asked with his eyes.
‘What should I do with this guy?’
They said killing him would be enough, but Kantra was too obedient. I don’t feel like killing an opponent who is physically shouting ‘Surrender!’
However, if you leave him alive, I don’t know what he will do while escaping from the northern area.
You kept me alive. Isn’t this a feeling that doesn’t fit the forest of digs in the first place?
‘Just dealing with it.’
Helmut moved his hand slightly.
Then Kantra, whose wounds were open, let out a squealing sound. It’s like I can’t even scream properly.
Area clicked her tongue.
“what? “Squeaking like a puppy.”
[stop… … sun! ah… … It’s okay. Humans… … It’s cruel… … !]
Surprisingly, at that moment, tears welled up in the sea turtle’s golden eyes. It was a sight that somehow made my fighting spirit disappear.
Area said as if she was shocked.
“Are you crying? “This is a very weak guy.”
[I am… … fight… … no… … do.]
“You started an argument. “You stupid turtle.”
[You… … My area… … It was invaded!]
It was a tone close to whining.
For some reason, his attitude was extreme from the beginning, but he seemed like a child.
He is the ruler of a region that has lived as it pleases. Ygrel and Elaga also had a childish side, but Kantra was a bit harsh.
On the outside, it looks like a very plausible and solemn ancient magical beast, but isn’t it surprising?
Area asked as if confirming.
“Why were you stuck at the northern end, near the sacred barrier? “This is not a good environment for monsters to live in.”
Kantra muttered an answer.
[The other guys… … I’m afraid it will come… … ! Here… … I can’t find it… … Because it will.]
He sounded like a reclusive loner.
Helmut and Area looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
