All Power Wizard Part 2 Tower of the Demon God
Episode 048
“A report has arrived from Sir Onelly, who watches over the Demon God’s Tower. “They say there was some suspicious movement in the tower.”
“Suspicious movement? Are they showing up?”
“They say it didn’t seem like that. “They said there was a strong ‘resonance’ in seeing it for the first time.”
“••••••ring?”
“I am guessing that the demon spirit is moving. “Shouldn’t we go out now too?”
Emperor Shaw Mertan turned his attention to Lesion Baton’s report.
“It is with a heavy heart that I leave Leverdine behind.”
Leverdine, which had been swept away by the fire of war, was in the midst of restoration work.
Because it was not something that would take a day or two, the faces of the citizens were filled with deep exhaustion… … .
Just as flowers were blooming even in the ruins, stability was gradually being found with the help of the Allied Forces.
But, I have to go.
We must leave behind the deeply scarred Leverdine and go to end this damn war.
“Hurry up and prepare for departure. As soon as preparations are complete, we will go back to the Demon God’s Tower.”
“Jonmyeong!”
The emperor’s eyes are once again on the restoration site.
headed to
A woman receiving rations of food prepared by a nearby city, and an old man looking for hope by stuffing his mouth full of rice balls.
Men are busy removing building debris and preparing a new site.
Even children running around the ruined city without knowing the speed of adults.
It was a difficult situation in many ways, but I wanted to protect the citizens who did not give up on themselves.
But, then.
” your majesty!”
Somehow, an ominous energy passed by.
* * ♦
“Say it again.”
Just as we were about to begin preparations for departure, an urgent report arrived.
The commanders, including the emperor and me, gathered in one place, and the adjutant spoke again in an urgent voice.
“It’s a murder case! person who killed one’s parents
From the woman who murdered her child to the person who murdered her friend! “More than 10 reports came in early in the morning.”
“10 cases? Of course, it’s a shame, but wouldn’t it be very strange for a murder of that magnitude to occur in Leverdine? Moreover, when the city atmosphere is this ferocious… …
“There are 10 cases in the Schubert jurisdiction alone. “If you include the northern, southern, western, central and commercial districts of Leverdine, there are over 100 cases.”
“… …
Now the situation has become a little more serious.
100 murders occurred in one morning.
Of course, these are just some of the numbers reported.
“There are only 100 cases that were hastily collected. The numbers are still growing exponentially, and judging by the continued reports… … This is definitely not something to be overlooked. “This is an unprecedented disaster.”
“I’ll give you a report! “There were murders even among the soldiers!”
u..2”
Citizens kill and kill each other.
The soldiers who are supposed to stop this point their swords at each other’s throats.
Urgent reports came in from all over Leverdine, and it seemed like this was not just Leverdine’s problem.
“The same goes for Berna! “300 people died in one night!”
“Oyota, Rhedian Kingdom, Perna, and even Ardel! The same thing is happening all over the continent!”
At the name Ardel, I felt my heart sink.
“Well, what did you just say? Are you Ar Del?”
“yes. This is a report I received from Deltagon a little while ago. “They say about a dozen people were killed or injured.”
Ardel was among the least damaged.
The place where the biggest incident took place is none other than the place that borders the Reinark Empire.
Holy Principality of Frelia.
“Are you kidding me?”
“… … “Do you look like you’re in the mood for a joke?”
“10,000? Are you telling us to believe that there are so many dead people that counting them is meaningless?”
At least 10,000.
So many people died that it was meaningless to count them.
A mysterious murder case is taking place across the continent.
What on earth is going on?
“There was a sound from the Demon God’s Tower.
Didn’t you get the report? From this, it seems clear that it was the work of a demon god. Could it be that the demon god has placed some kind of curse?”
“Curse… … . “Is there anything in common between perpetrators and victims?”
“There it is! They say he was muttering to himself like a crazy person. “Like having a conversation with someone.”
“… … “Conversation?”
“And, there’s one more thing. It is said that, like a crazy person, he suddenly attacked the nearest person. Convinced that the other person is dead, not even seeing oneself
“We stabbed them together.”
“Now, how about committing suicide?”
“yes. “I suspected that it might have turned into a demon, but I didn’t find anything special.”
“If you’re not a demon, then what on earth…?” …
“The real problem is that we haven’t found a way to solve it. An unspecified number of people are killing each other, and the cause has not been found… …
“I think I might know the cause.”
At the end, I intervened.
My remarks were discussed for a long time by the
Everyone in the office was watching me.
“Lord Tower. “Did you just say it was like knowing?”
“yes. It’s still just a guess, but the answer was already revealed during the conversation. Talk to yourself, and the Holy Principality of Frelia.”
“..2”
The adjutant tilted his head as if he did not understand, but the emperor understood the meaning of my words and nodded.
“Jushin Frelia… … . Was it a demon?”
“••••••yes’?”
I don’t understand the emperor’s words either.
As if the adjutant gave me a look that said he needed an explanation.
I opened my mouth in a calm voice.
“The place where the most people died is the Holy Principality of Frelia. As you know, the principality is the place with the largest number of Frelia believers.”
“Is that so? But, what is this and what… … ah!”
“yes. Muttering to yourself means that you heard someone’s voice without going crazy. “Hearing someone’s voice and killing the person closest to him for that person.”
“P-Frelia! Did you hear the voice of the Lord?”
“Like I said, it’s just a guess… … . I guess it’s one of two things. “It turns out that the main princess, Frelia, was either a crazy woman or a demon.”
“Ahhh… … !”
Everyone’s faces turned into shocked faces.
It has to be that way.
Who is Frelia?
The womb, mother, and sustenance of this land
It is Ilshin.
It is a matter of faith, whether big or small, and most people follow Frelia.
Of course, there are exceptional cases, like the emperor, where no one is trusted.
It was then.
U | «
A knight standing behind the emperor pulled out a dagger stuck in his belt.
It happened in an instant, and he was the closest man.
He swung his dagger at the emperor.
It was a sharp sword that could pierce the neck in one go, but Sir Lesion and I moved faster.
“Avoid!”
Lord Lesion pushed the emperor’s body away with animal-like reflexes, and I broke the knight’s wrist holding the dagger and then pressed down hard on his uvula.
“Kuh, keuhuh!”
When the attempt to assassinate the emperor was in vain, the knight reflexively tried to bite his tongue.
However, I held his chin to prevent him from biting his tongue and did not let go.
“You’ll need some rope to tie him up. “I’m trying to commit suicide, so I need a cloth to cover my mouth.”
“to? Yes, old times!”
A knight appeared with rope and cloth and began to bind the man.
“Are you okay, Your Majesty?”
The emperor, who was not overly surprised by most things, also looked at the trapped knight in confusion.
“You… …
“This is Horosh. Member of the Blue and White Knights
“I have been by your side since your Majesty was the crown prince.”
“Know. And, he is also a faithful Frelia member.”
“… … you’re right.”
The facial expression of the knight named Horosh was not one they knew.
He, who was a model of a loyal knight who spoke little, burst out in anger as if the assassination attempt turned out to be an attempt.
His face turned red and he continued to glare at the emperor… … .
“Oh, no!”
Cheolpudeok!
He voluntarily stopped breathing and chose to commit suicide.
“… … “Oh, how did this happen?”
Everyone looked at each other as if perplexed.
A situation has arisen in which no one can be trusted.
Lord Lesion remained calm at times like these.
“First of all, I think it would be best for Your Majesty to flee to a safe place. You can trust me. Frelia Kyowa
“It’s a long way.”
The emperor looked at me.
I took it as a question about you, and I shrugged.
“Most wizards do not believe in gods. “Don’t worry.”
“Oh, thank goodness.”
Not only the emperor but most of the knights breathed a sigh of relief at my words.
If I went crazy here, the person who would cause the most trouble would be me.
However, it is too early to be relieved.
“We must first take His Majesty to a safe place and select people we can trust. Also, those who have even the slightest connection to the Church of Frelia must be quarantined separately.”
“Yes, I understand what the tower owner said. However, are there only one or two people on the continent who are related to the Church of Frelia?”
“Just me, I have visited the Order of Frelia. I went with his father and sister on a holiday. If this were to be included, there would be no one left on the continent. “Do you know what I mean?”
“Yes, I mean… … Are you overly absorbed in religion… … . There is a believer in the family… …
“Come on. “Move.”
As I nodded, the adjutant rushed out of Bu Rinake.
Commands like this will now spread across the entire continent.
However, since they do not go around with ‘I am a Frelia member, Io’ written on their foreheads, it will not be easy to catch everyone.
At that time, the emperor, who was moving to a safe place, gritted his teeth and muttered.
“I definitely should have uprooted it that day.”
that day?
Ah, I see.
The first thing the emperor did when starting a war of conquest was to deny the Frelian religion.
In fact, there was a record of burning the Vatican and brutally killing the religious leader.
Although this may not have been foreseen, I also agree with the emperor’s opinion.
“Shouldn’t we uproot it now?”
“… … “That’s how it should be.”
Innocent people cannot be massacred.
It cannot be denied that blood will be shed in this process, but people should not be killed indiscriminately just because they are believers.
Because we were all deceived.
“Is there a way?”
To the emperor’s question, I nodded.
“We must kill the goddess.”
“••••••God?”
“Wouldn’t this be an easier and faster way than killing all the believers?”
“I don’t know if it’s easy, but I can’t deny that it’s the fastest way.”
“I will head to the Demon God’s Tower. “Your Majesty, please prepare for an imminent riot.”
“Riot?”
“The number of Frelia members in this land is so large that it is difficult to even guess. Of course, what happened today is just the beginning, and within the next few days, stronger riots will break out across the continent.”
For a moment, I felt anxious.
Ardel.
Because it is clear that the same thing will happen in my beloved hometown.
I want to run to Ardel right now, but I have work to do.
So, I believe it.
Hanson remains in Ardel, and Irene also remains.
They will definitely protect Ardel.
