Episode 93 – Do you really believe that?
Alberto rose to the level of an aura expert and defeated all the followers of the evil spirits who stood in his way.
After taking a short break by drinking a fatigue reliever, he created a state of tension again and ran towards the place where the ceremony was to take place.
I don’t know if it’s because of the Sword Master’s physical body, or because of the leg strength he developed while wandering between territories before entering the Royal Academy, but Alberto’s speed of movement was unmatched.
With the addition of his excellent reflexes and amazing physical ability to support them, Alberto could be said to be like a wild beast crossing the forest.
How many times did he repeat jumping over trees and ruins like that?
Alberto was finally able to reach the place where his ceremony was taking place.
The place where the ceremony was held was an arena located in the center of Elgarta, a city of the old Pandeum Empire that had turned into ruins.
In the very place where enslaved gladiators died and killed each other to win their freedom at the cost of their own lives, some kind of ritual was going on.
As far as Alberto knew, this ritual was to prepare for the resurrection of the evil spirit.
It would have been fortunate if Alberto had learned a little about the summoning ritual, but unfortunately, Alberto had no knowledge of the summoning ritual.
If Alberto had knowledge of summoning rituals and other shamanic rites, he would have been able to quickly figure out what rituals the demon followers are currently conducting.
Currently, this ritual performed by the followers of evil spirits in Elgarta’s arena was to summon monsters living in other worlds to this land.
If the followers of evil spirits had conducted this ritual in a place other than unexplored regions, they would have been caught by the priests of other denominations and beaten before the ritual could be performed.
However, the unexplored area was also a very dangerous place, and it was also a place where the energy emitted by monsters could hide the energy of evil spirit followers.
In addition, since all the monsters in the unexplored lands have been exposed to the energy of evil spirits and left descendants, the energy they radiate is somewhat similar to that of evil spirits.
For this reason, the followers of evil spirits were going to perform summoning rituals in the unexplored lands.
And the goddess of light and justice, who has enough power to see through evil spirit followers even in unexplored areas, was deliberately ignoring the rituals taking place here.
The reason was that she thought of using this opportunity to get rid of Alberto.
He doesn’t have to step out on his own, but he didn’t want to intervene and re-sprinkle the finished rice.
So, she was just looking down at the unexplored land from the sky.
Her devotion to her, which became the main religion of her continent, was very strong enough to put her in the position of her supreme god.
No matter how strong her divine power was, most of her divine beings could not intervene in the unexplored land she was looking at.
If a divine being had succeeded in intervening, perhaps the tragedy that followed might not have happened.
However, now that the goddess of light and justice is watching the unexplored land with interest, none of the gods who are overwhelmed by her momentum have any way to help Alberto.
–
I was checking my equipment and condition one last time before entering the place where the ceremony was said to be taking place.
The ruins I am now in are so huge that they can be called a city.
No, I’m sure these ruins must have been a very prosperous city in the past.
Even though the building collapsed and did not maintain its shape, the flat stones on the street that ran through the city center were still in place even after hundreds of years had passed.
How much money and manpower did it take to build such a great city?
How much magic was used to create this road that stands in its place even after hundreds of years?
For those who don’t know the truth about the Pandeum Empire, this stone-paved road won’t inspire you, but I know about the Pandeum Empire, so this place looked different.
Tintaluna’s roads were not so perfectly paved.
On the other hand, the road here…… No wait What am I doing?
I’m sure I’ve come to stop the ceremony, but why the hell am I just appreciating a road that I don’t even know what to do with?
I shook my head to shake off my thoughts and stood up.
I ate some sweet desserts I brought to soothe my tired body, and drank some recovery potions, and my body felt better.
I can’t say it’s perfect, but at this level, I can confidently say that I’ve prepared as much as I can.
“Whoa… ….”
One last deep breath and I was finally able to step into the massive ruins where the ritual takes place.
As we entered the ruins, the torches were lit sequentially.
Seeing that the heat was not felt, it seemed to be magic using light and illusion.
This could be the traces of the Pandeum Empire that remain to this day, or the traces left by the enemies waiting for me on the other side.
I did not lose my tension and focused again to raise the aura all over my body.
It was only then that I began to feel an unknown energy on the other side of the road following the torch.
Even though he wasn’t as strong as his father, he felt a lot of energy that was a bit lacking compared to Marquis Sebatia.
It was unusual.
Anyway, this battle seemed to be one of the toughest battles I’ve ever been through.
I’m not trying to be rude, my intuition was warning me.
That means there is a mighty enemy ahead of you.
Perhaps those beings over there were prepared by the other party to deal with me.
From noble mtl dot com.
As I slowly walked down the road following the torchlight, I soon came to the end of the road, and when I got out of there, at least dozens or hundreds of people welcomed me.
“You have prepared a great deal for this. Really, aren’t you very happy?”
“Welcome. Alberto Salihar Meidern. Our adversary, who will stand in the way of the resurrection of the great One.”
As soon as I made a sly greeting, the person who seemed to be the captain straight-up and firmly defined me as the enemy.
Tsk, women wouldn’t like a man who is that determined.
No. Rather, there must be people who like that kind of charm, right?
“Sad. Wouldn’t the person you serve be very sad to see you all hostile to me like this?”
I haven’t revealed my identity to them yet.
Because, rather than revealing my identity right away, it was better to reveal it after some time had passed and the enemies had hurt me.
If I told you I was the person they needed to resurrect the beings they serve?
Perhaps you are quite bewildered, trying to find out if what I said is true.
Then I just have to prove that I am necessary for the resurrection of evil spirits little by little while dealing with the bewildered people.
It was enough to deal with the group of evil god followers while slowly creating gaps like that.
And then I courageously took out my sword and tried to deal with the enemy…….
“Kill you, I will destroy everything that prevents his resurrection!”
Aren’t some of the evil spirit followers shouting these words and then suddenly running towards me?
So I raised my sword and shouted.
“Wait! I am the vessel for resurrecting the one you serve!”
“What?”
“Look! This is my ability!”
I could see the eyes of the followers of the evil spirits turning round as I looked at them as I wielded an aura blade in my right hand and a shield magic that only wizards could use in my left hand.
“Oh, my God! You can really use aura and magic at the same time?”
“Our adversary… A vessel to resurrect our lord?”
“Why do you think I came here?”
“Ah, ah! I’m sorry I didn’t know your great intentions!”
I thought of this when I saw an evil spirit follower who suddenly changed his attitude and bowed down on the ground as he was running.
‘I’ve been thinking about this for a long time, but are these guys really just idiots?’
No, you’re just going to go crazy with only this?
Well, thanks to that, I was able to start the fight very comfortably.
“Gagging… why?”
“Become a sacrifice necessary for His resurrection. The more you give your lives, the quicker will his resurrection be!”
Of course, these are all outright lies.
There can be no such thing.
“Eight! Everything he says is a lie!”
“Kill that guy!”
But, there is always someone who strikes candles.
Well, it didn’t matter.
I just want to cut them down, cut them down, and cut them down again.
Thus, I entered into battle with the followers of evil spirits again.
