197. Black Seed (5)
ping!
The dagger that flew like a shot from her left hand was lodged in the saintess’s chest.
When the saintess hesitated, I kicked the ground and ran backwards. Because I didn’t have time to deal with them. First of all, finding Freea was an urgent priority.
‘All boss level.’
From a woman who fires magic like an autocannon, to a beast of incredible strength, to a saintess who uses bizarre abilities.
I saw him appear as a main character at the promotion ceremony, but I didn’t expect them to appear together here. I wouldn’t know if I dealt with one person at a time, but I couldn’t guarantee the odds against three people.
I fell to the outskirts of the camp and looked back.
They seem to be trying to deal with the troops of the contingent first,
No longer pursued me.
In the distance, thousands of soldiers could be seen sweeping away in rapid succession.
I looked around.
Beyond the hill at the camp’s entrance, troops could be seen through the fluttering flags.
It was a church army.
‘It might not have been a good match from the beginning.’
I thought it might be useful to some extent.
I clicked my tongue lightly and accelerated.
[Order Army Soldier Lv.25] X 32
[Order Knight Lv.28] X 2
Church troops had already infiltrated everywhere.
I kicked the one who rushed at me and put a knife through his chest. Then, after cutting down three people in a row, they headed for Freea’s barracks.
I heard the entrance to the barracks.
‘… … I don’t have it.’
The interior is neatly organized.
It doesn’t look like you’ve been inside.
This meant that he was not in the barracks at the time of the invasion.
‘Where Fria can go… … .’
There is only one place to guess.
I turned and headed for the trail leading to the cliff.
“Ugh!”
“Save me! Save me!”
There, too, the massacre continued.
The soldiers screamed desperately and brandished their swords.
They killed each other with a terrified look on their faces.
killing allies.
<You are using a mysterious ability.>
In the middle of screaming and scattering piles of flesh.
The saintess was standing. Every time a purple light flashed from the half-opened left eye, the movements of the soldiers intensified.
<I am Irene Icario. The 38th saint of the Church of Tel Icar… … .>
The blade of my sword pierced the saintess’s heart.
I threw the saintess to the other side of the grass. The corpse of her saintess, who had been blown away by her blood, wriggled on the pile of dirt.
The splattered blood is gathering into the hole in the heart.
I pierced a vital point with a dagger, but seeing that it appeared here intact,
‘Is it regeneration?’
woo.
I spat bloody saliva and ran again.
Good thing you didn’t cancel the Exceed state. I was about to get stuck again.
That woman’s skill seemed to be some kind of demonic eye. It must be the control system.
I decided to refer to it when dealing with it later.
Fog gradually settled in front of my eyes.
Screams and the sound of spear knives continued in the fog.
I grabbed the bloody sword hilt loosely and jumped in.
“Ugh!”
Fria, holding a sword, was struggling against the five soldiers.
but not enough. The thick spear blade grazed Fria’s forearm. Freea let out a moan and let go of her sword. Subsequently, various weapons were fired at her vital points.
‘… … .’
It was right after that that I intervened.
I turned around while burrowing into Freea. A circular sword strike spread, splitting two spear blades and an axe. Then, after kicking a guy who was trying to insert a dagger, he swung his left hand. The blade of the sword, which was heading for the nape of Freea’s neck, was caught in her hand. I pulled my left hand and took the sword away from the soldier. and.
Kwajik.
Five soldiers whose bodies were torn to pieces collapsed at once.
“Whoa.”
I brushed my left hand.
Blood leaked out of the wrist.
“one……!”
“What are you so surprised about? Not once or twice. Skip the greeting. You’ll know when you see the situation.”
“This… what the hell happened?”
“The cultists are breaking in and messing around. We’ve been robbed.”
I caught my breath.
[‘Han (★★★★)”s exceed state has been cancelled.]
Beetle.
For a moment, I felt dizzy along with the pain, but somehow I was able to calm it down.
“Then shouldn’t we fight back? Where is Sir Delphine…!”
“Follow me.”
“Aww!”
There is no time to explain.
I grabbed Freea’s wrist and got out of there.
If you take the road to the left of the camp, you will come to the landing site. After taking the airship from there, he planned to escape to the sky.
‘however… … .’
I touched my forehead.
Flames were rising from the landing site in the distance.
The few airships that escaped also fell into a pile of fire in the ensuing shelling.
‘X feet.’
“one!”
then where should i go
If you take another exit from the camp, you will find a plain.
Although it is wide, it is not suitable for escaping because it is open on all sides.
‘Isn’t there a choice?’
If the landing site is blocked anyway, there is no escape route other than the plains.
I grabbed Freea’s wrist and turned around.
“Cow, let go of your hand. I will follow you.”
“then.”
I let go.
Freea touched her wrist with teary eyes and looked at me.
“Did you take the key?”
“Always have it with you.”
“Stay behind me and follow me.”
It seems that the main unit of the Church Army has also entered the camp.
Blood was splattered everywhere, and screams rang out loudly.
It was a one-sided massacre.
I moved, hiding myself among the trees and grass.
Freea squirmed along from behind.
“This is… what the heck…”
<Ahahaha! die, die!>
bang! Bang bang!
Persene was shooting magic orbs from the sky.
Freea’s complexion turned white.
“The author…”
“Is it nice to see you again?”
“That calm Sir Persene, oh… yup!”
I covered Freea’s mouth.
The exit leading to the outside of the camp was blocked by the Church’s troops.
A middle-aged man with a dignified appearance stands tall in front of him. Beast King Kiadni.
‘shit.’
Turned around.
Take the left exit again.
At the exit on the left stood a saintess in white.
After that, I saw the Holy Knights dressed in silver armor.
<There is nowhere to run, hero.>
Persene, who had been floating in the air, descended to the ground.
“…”
The left, right, and front are blocked.
Three people stand in the way, one defense at a time. Behind the camp was a cliff dropping to the ground.
“How can I… do you want me to?”
Fria gulped as she looked at me.
‘Breaking through the front?’
dismissed.
The odds are too low.
It’s okay if I’m alone, but Freea is there.
If so, is there any other way?
“… that’s awful.”
I closed my eyes.
All night yesterday, I remembered the map of Buyeo Island that I had stared at.
A conclusion came shortly after.
“Pria, follow me.”
“Where are you planning to go?”
“To the cliff.”
“There…”
I said nothing.
Fria looked up at me and nodded.
“Okay. I don’t trust you.”
“Don’t trust me too much.”
Freea and I headed for the cliff behind the camp.
The church forces knew our location, so there was no need to hide.
Whoops.
The wind pushed me.
I looked behind me with my feet firmly planted on the ground.
Beyond the sheer cliffs, the distant ground was peeped out.
Freea squeezed my collar tightly.
I smiled and swung my sword.
Hundreds of soldiers and dozens of knights.
Three executives were approaching me from different directions.
“Hero, if you were going to run away, you should have abandoned that bitch. I could have let her go.”
Persene grinned.
“If I had a chance, I would have liked to fight as a warrior versus a warrior. It’s a pity.”
Kiadney walked over with her arms crossed.
<… … .>
The saintess with her eyes closed approached me without a sound.
‘This, one.’
This is a personal mission that can only be accomplished by one person.
The difficulty level rises vertically, and it is about to break through the graph and jump out.
I have no conscience.
Not even a day or two.
“Pass that year.”
said Persene.
“Sir Persene!”
“I don’t want to hear your voice, so shut up.”
“Wait, listen! I speak Taoni…”
“I told you to shut up!”
Persene shouted with bloodshot eyes.
“Don’t open that filthy mouth in front of me that sold us out!”
Freea closed her mouth with a beaten face.
Persene looked back at me and smiled.
“Hero, let’s talk about it again. Do you think there’s a chance to win? Wouldn’t it be better to make a different choice to preserve your life?”
<Your Highness has a very high opinion of you.>
The saintess stepped forward.
“If you’re a good warrior like you, you deserve to be together. Hand over that girl and come this way, warrior.”
Next, the beast king helped.
I thought for a while and then spit it out.
“If I hand over Freea, what will happen to this guy?”
“Yeah…”
Persene raised her right hand.
Charleuk! The wind blew like a blade.
“We have to bring back the pain we’ve gone through dozens of times. We’ll make it impossible to live or die. To let you taste all the pain in this world. We’ll make you cry out for wanting to die, please kill us.”
“Traitors deserve their due.”
<I agree.>
I looked back.
“……one.”
Freea was looking at me with wet eyes.
There was no sense of mission as a princess.
There was only one girl who was terrified of what was to come.
“Yes, if you live, it’s okay, it’s okay.
“I’m going to bite my tongue.”
I pushed Freea’s forehead.
and looked ahead
<Hero, we have a cause. The cause of saving all who are suffering in this world. Don’t you know that this world is wrong.>
The saintess’ voice rang in my head.
There is magic in the voice itself.
“Yes, it’s a cause. It’s a plan to destroy this wrong world and put everyone in peace. I’ll tell you the truth you never knew. What we’ve been through, why we’re like this. What that bitch did. Traitor.” The ugly reality of the year…”
“Very damn, he’s taking dog shit.”
Persene’s face hardened in an instant.
“The unknown truth? An ugly entity?”
I laughed.
I tried to be patient, but I just couldn’t stand it.
A burst of laughter flowed out.
I don’t know what they were like before.
But only now.
“Why am I going to a place where only nerds gather?”
“……What did you say?”
I twisted my lips.
“Are you the only ones unlucky?
“…”
“There are people who got caught up in something completely irrelevant and bleed, were almost searched for several times, and are still rolling on the dirt floor.”
Every day was a battle and hell.
It was a painful day of going back and forth between life and death several times.
He has killed countless enemies and watched his comrades die to the point of getting sick of it.
But I
“I don’t take out unnecessary anger.”
They will also notice to some extent.
The fact that Freea was only being used by Tell.
‘Would you return the pain you received?’
The price is shaking.
I didn’t drag others into the abyss just because I was put to the shit.
The unlucky ends with me.
and i overcome
“Tell your captain. Don’t be a jerk, and wash your throat well until you search.”
“…”
The three of them said nothing.
He was just looking at me with cold eyes.
I grinned.
It’s not clear what kind of cause these guys are talking about.
“Is that just a will?”
Persene murmured.
In an emotionless tone with no high or low.
I looked behind me without answering.
“Fria.”
Whispering softly, Freea nodded.
“Hold on tight. Don’t let go.”
“Ah, got it.”
Freea gripped her sleeves tightly.
I turned my sword around and looked ahead again.
Three people were slowly approaching me.
“You guys think about it too. What kind of screams you will make when your hair is blown off.”
“Crazy bastard.”
Persene held out her hand to me.
I also extended my left middle finger and held onto Freea.
And threw himself over the cliff.
