Helmut
Episode 467
Wow!
Elaga shouted menacingly.
Just as a crazy person is naturally strong, Baharek was also strong. He rushed at me more recklessly than last time, so it was more difficult to deal with him.
Because Baharek at that time knew fear and knew how to eliminate it. This guy was determined to fight until one of them died.
‘Why are this guy’s eyes turned upside down?’
Elaga tried to understand Baharek’s condition.
Judging by the demonic energy that erupts irregularly from its entire body, it is not like it is attacking under the control of the demon lord.
Elaga knew intuitively. If it was under control, the Magi would have been stable. Because he would have become a puppet acting according to one will.
However, Baharek was surrounded by berserk demonic energy. Only instinct and wildness remained. It had the intelligence of an animal, but had no consciousness.
‘Why on earth did it end up like this?’
Did he go crazy while resisting the devil?
Elaga struck Baharek, who was baring his teeth at him, with his front paw.
puck!
Baharek, with his face half turned, flew to the other side, but landed with surprising agility.
Coogggggg!
As soon as it lands on all fours, it kicks the floor and lunges again.
They bared their teeth like crazy, attacked their bodies, and launched a continuous attack. However, since he is the ruler of the area, he will have enough stamina to attack as much as he wants.
‘Should I inflict fatal wounds?’
Elaga was lost and was just dealing with her appropriately. I have no emotional qualms about killing Baharek. It’s a hostile relationship anyway.
But if that happened, Elaga would have to consume his core that came out.
I thought it was Naho’s core, but it was also Baharek’s core. The story gets a little strange.
It may be possible to extinguish it, but it will take time and you won’t be able to fight properly in the meantime.
I felt uncomfortable. As a monster with highly developed demonic nature, Elaga could not simply become stronger and absorb demonic energy as he pleased, like other monsters.
Elaga judged that he was controlling his power well at this level. however.
‘I said I was robbed of my consciousness by the devil.’
It’s disturbing that he didn’t even realize it. You have to be aware of it before you can resist.
While absorbing Baharek’s core, Elaga will also be weakened. If the devil makes a move at that time… … .
[Uh-gu, uh-gu, where are you sticking your drooling snout!]
Even while working hard, Elaga was beating up Baharek.
puck! puck! puck!
His front paw was too big to be a cat punch, and it was powerful enough to crush a castle. So much so that he even shook the goal.
However, Baharek did not give in and rushed forward like crazy even after he fell. Momentum alone was the best.
‘It would be more convenient if you overtly attack it, suppress it, and bite it to suffocate it. but… … .’
I was concerned about the post-processing of the nucleus. You can’t just blow that power away.
If you abandon it and fall into the hands of the devil, it will be a big problem. Even if I had a high priest deal with it, wouldn’t an enormous amount of divine power be consumed?
‘Anyway, are these guys okay?’
Elaga secretly spread her senses to the surroundings. Before I knew it, the monsters that had gathered were rushing toward the humans with murderous intent like Baharek.
The humans were doing their best, but by the time everything was done, the amount of energy consumed would have been enormous. You must quickly kill this guy and help him.
‘It would be easiest for this guy to come to his senses.’
If he was crazy about his magic, he would have taken out his magic, but that wasn’t the case.
At that time, a flashing thought crossed Elaga’s head. It was a good workaround. It might be a little risky, though.
‘Because I’m not the one in danger.’
Baharek, who had fallen, was standing up again, baring his teeth.
Crumbling!
That guy will do that until he dies. Elaga looked back at the guy and lunged.
Coogung! Tu da da da!
It wasn’t him who could bring Baharek to his senses.
* * *
Kantra, who had been riding the sled with his shell as if rowing, had noticeably slowed down.
This is because as the ice becomes thinner, friction begins to occur.
At one point, Kantra stood tall. He had a keen sense of where the boundary of the territory was.
[ah… … There it is. I’m only here… … I’m going. I ran so much that I was tired.]
Helmut lightly tapped his shell.
“Good job, Kantra.”
Helmut had never in his life ever tried to gain something by threatening an innocent person.
Surprisingly, I lived a righteous life. However, it only caused harm to Kantra.
Ironically, it feels like they are bullying the weak against Kantra, who is the ruler of the North.
[effort… … did. me… … Come down quickly.]
The group all jumped from Kantra’s shell to the floor.
The feeling of stepping on the floor was no longer ice. It is the land where grass grows.
“I’ll see you again if things go well.”
Kantra trembled as Ygrel waved his hand and spoke.
[Three times… … I wish I didn’t see it. Devil… … Grab it and win.]
He was a timid but cold-hearted turtle who was reluctant to do anything, regardless of affection.
Kantra immediately turned around as soon as they got off.
And it started to go back just as fast as it came.
Kuaaaa!
Only when he completely hides himself under the sea will stability come to him.
“He’s strangely cute.”
Ygrel tilted his head. This is the border, the western area. Helmut concentrated his senses.
Even with the naked eye, I could see that there was thick fog on the other side. The atmosphere was filled with heavy magic energy and fog.
I could feel the waves of magical energy clashing dully beyond it.
Two huge demonic forces were colliding. Probably Elaga and Baharek. So what about the other party members?
“Let’s hurry.”
At the same time Helmut spoke, Area summoned a golem. It was the same golem I rode when I came to Pahe Forest last time.
In bird form, it will carry them and fly away.
Although its speed was the same as that of Kantra, the golem consumed a lot of mana.
But now was no time to delay. Everyone climbed on top of the golem at once.
“I never thought I would ride this guy.”
Ygrel muttered. It is a rare situation where a bird is riding a bird. The golem soared straight into the sky and shot out like an arrow.
Heike used magic to remove wind resistance. Soon enough, the golem entered the fog completely.
Moisture particles were stuck on my skin. As for the sting, the movement was fast.
However, the clash of demon energy from below was not felt. Has it already come to a conclusion?
“Search magic doesn’t work. Was it around here?”
Area frowned. There is so much fog at the top that you can’t even see the bottom.
Helmut spoke firmly.
“It was around here. “Descent.”
The moment the golem moved its head downward, a flash of light was seen from below. An unpleasant sensation scorched Helmut’s cheeks like fire.
‘Holy magic!’
A powerful gust of divine magic dispersed the fog.
A wind as hazy as steam hit their faces, and soon a clear scene appeared before Helmut and his group.
Everyone they were looking for was there.
“Helmut!”
Asuka shouted loudly. The situation down there was ghastly.
The corpses of monsters were scattered here and there. Traces of devastated land.
Meanwhile, fortunately, the four people were standing unharmed. Even the high priest and paladin who half hoped they would die in an accident.
‘Are you glad there is no loss of power?’
Perhaps because they had just fought a tough battle, all four of them were not in good shape.
There is no need to check whether Elaga is okay.
He was standing on all fours and squinting his eyes. And next to it.
Helmut raised his eyebrows.
‘Baharek?’
Helmut did not wait for the bird to land, but jumped straight away.
widely!
The place where he landed was in front of Ella. He was annoyed and spoke to me.
[You came late.]
“Did you fight with Baharek?”
[That guy attacked me.]
“Are you alive? Why didn’t you make it clear?”
Helmut put his hand to his sword.
Baharek, who had fallen to the floor, was writhing and shaking his head from side to side.
Looking at the demonic energy radiating from his entire body, it looks like he still has the energy to fight.
He was probably hit directly by divine magic. Is there any need to waste sacred power here when there is Elaga? Helmut became puzzled.
Elaga’s voice came leisurely.
[Just leave it alone. I think it worked?]
Helmut watched Bacharek as Ella stood by his side.
The companions who had settled on the ground approached him and stood. With everyone’s eyes focused on him, Baharek slowly stood up from his seat.
Flashing eyes scanned the surroundings.
[What is this… … .]
[Hey, have you come to your senses?]
Baharek, who belatedly saw Elaga’s appearance, jumped up on the spot.
[W-what! Ella? Why is your guy here? Moreover, you are invading my territory with humans!]
Doesn’t that sound strange considering the fierce fight we had just a moment ago? Helmut became even more puzzled.
Elaga took a long stride towards Baharek.
[A cocky bastard, isn’t it obvious? Because I was the one who brought you back to your senses!]
[sanity… … Yes, I did.]
Baharek blinked as if he had finally realized the situation.
[Do you remember how you lost your mind?]
[memory… … It flies. I don’t remember the middle part though. What did you do to me?]
Baharek looked at Elaga with a questioning gaze.
Elaga said with an arrogant expression.
[I thought you might come to your senses if you were hit by holy magic. It’s simple, right?]
So Elaga lured Baharek towards the high priest.
At that moment, the monsters that were attacking like crazy surrounding the four people were automatically crushed.
Both Baharek and I were enemies, and the monsters that were teeming with each other were almost devastated by the intrusion of the two monsters.
The four people escaped the crisis, but faced another crisis. Baharek, who was fighting Elaga, was in front of him.
Then Elaga spoke.
[Hey, High Priest.]
“yes?”
[I will subdue him, so use holy magic on his head. A powerful blow. know?]
At the same time, Elaga rolled her eyes and warned.
[Since you are a high priest, you can only hit Baharek, right? Aim well so that the holy magic doesn’t reach me.]
“effort… … “Let’s try.”
[It’s definitely not because I have a hard time dealing with it alone. There’s a reason!]
The reason would have to be explained after the end. Just as he was finishing speaking, Baharek rushed in.
Elaga immediately kicked off the floor and flew up.
A moment later, his teeth caught the back of Baharek and pressed down on the glowing creature with his entire body.
And just in time, Levina’s sacred magic was completed.
