114. Duncan (3)
Oliver was perplexed.
Because I didn’t expect it at all.
It is here that we meet again the Holy Law that we have only encountered once in the past.
A holy light that also deals a wide range of damage to black magic.
Oliver thought for a moment that he might have heard it wrong, but when he saw the brilliant light swallowing up, the corpse doll (a child in the car) suffering from the light, the hated bullet disappearing like smoke, and the minions, he realized that this was not an illusion but reality. .
Thanks to that, I was able to respond immediately and barely save my life.
“Die–!!”
Duncan said in a loud, beast-like voice.
He swung the stick as hard as he could, smashing the corpse dolls, then ran towards Oliver and struck again with all his might.
Oliver instinctively raised the quarterstaff to defend himself.
Gang—–!!!
With a roar, Oliver flew to the side, but as Duncan tried to hit him down with a stick, he used targeting and slipped off his seat.
Duncan looked behind him to see if he was chasing him, but he did not chase after him, as if he was already convinced of his victory.
Thanks to you, I was able to save my life, so I could say that I was really lucky.
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
Oliver, swept on the floor, covered in scars and dirt, staggered to his feet,
Duncan turned his stick and looked at Oliver.
“What is that wand? The black magic must have been broken, but you can’t stand my tonfa. What item?”
Oliver looked at his quarterstaff at those words.
It was definitely weird. The black suit must have been destroyed by Holy Light, but under normal circumstances Oliver’s quarterstaff should have been broken.
Oliver had doubts about this, too, but unfortunately he had more.
“How did you do that?”
“Ha-! this?”
Duncan smiled rarely and held up a golden bracelet.
There was a strange aura floating around.
“Is it an item that can use the Holy Law?”
“Yeah, God is merciful, and if you pay money, he will give you his power. Mahala… And this is possible.”
Duncan said so and took out his necklace.
A beaded necklace with a wooden cross hanging from it, and as he held the wooden cross in his hand, a dazzling golden light shone and surrounded Duncan’s body.
With him, the burns and wounds suffered during the battle with Oliver began to heal, but not very quickly, but Oliver had no choice but to watch.
Things were pretty bad.
My physical strength and emotions are quite exhausted, but my opponent is even recovering. No, before that, writing the Holy Law was the biggest problem.
It’s an unfavorable situation right now. You can somehow overcome it by using the emotions you have right now, but the Holy Law is absolutely… Pilgaret pulled sharply.
“What are you going to do? Why don’t you just hand over the girl and come under me now? Then, let me show you mercy.”
“Ah, sorry. Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. And if it’s a girl, I’ll leave it to someone I can trust and go to a safe place even if I die. So, you don’t have to worry about it.”
Duncan made an expressionless expression as if displeased.
“Aren’t you afraid to die?”
“Of course it is scary. Still, dislike is dislike, and a promise is a promise. That’s why I’m telling you, even if you kill me anyway, I won’t be able to find you, so why not just let me go?”
Oliver said sincerely. I said the truth is the law.
However, Duncan seemed to take it in a different way than he intended.
“Did you give it to the beggars?”
“········.”
Oliver raised his eyebrows slightly. How do you not?
Duncan told me first if he had read Oliver’s curiosity.
“Suddenly I heard that you and the lady disappeared, and I asked the police department and the street gangs, and they heard rumors that the beggars had formed a large organization.”
“·················ogue.”
“Like a rat, running errands through the sewer or eavesdropping on things…. The reaction seems to be correct.”
“·················ogue.”
“I don’t know what kind of relationship I entrusted her to, but since I know who she is, there’s no need to worry……. Do you want to make a promise?”
“…?”
“After I kill you, I will kill all those beggars first. If that’s the case, don’t worry, it’s my specialty. The city will love it too. You clean up the rats on the street for me.”
“Well·····. It’s a bit cruel. There are a lot of people there.”
“Human, how is a beggar a human?”
At the same time Oliver said that, he fired a hat bullet at Duncan’s head.
Most of the responses were delayed while answering, but Duncan used his excellent fuselage vision to fend off hate bullets with his tonfa.
That wasn’t enough, so he smashed the floor with another tonpa and threw a stone at Oliver, but when Oliver moved away from the stone, he ran at the right timing.
It was really frustrating.
Excellent physical abilities, fast reaction speed, and even the use of a holy method that shows absolute superiority.
It was like dealing with a paladin, but I didn’t know what to do.
‘But using the item. Obviously there are restrictions on use.’
Oliver understood the situation and tried to figure out a way to win.
Isn’t it a waste to die already?
Oliver reaffirmed his emotions and vitality in his head.
‘Emotions are still enough. But the vitality is not enough….’
Oliver saw the corpse of the Pinkman that had fallen with him. I had to save my life.
[Black Shield]
Oliver deployed a Black Shield to block Duncan’s attack.
It was a single layer, but it did not break like the last time, because instead of narrowing the range, it was condensed to increase the defense.
Would you say that the wide shroud was compressed into a disc?
The reduced defense range was reinforced by predicting the direction of attack by reading emotions.
Even one wrong reading of the attack trajectory can kill you.
Duncan laughed, knowing this.
“Crazy!”
“Everyone said so. I don’t understand.”
said Oliver, continuing to block Duncan’s attack.
Duncan swung the tonpa in his hands, stabbing, turning, and slashing, attacking from various angles without stopping for a moment.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Not only was it fast and changeable, but each shot was heavy, so a lot of emotion was consumed just to block it.I could even feel the wind pressure when I actually wielded it, but it was too risky to fight more than this.
So Oliver took the risk and swung his emotionally charged quarterstaff.
‘Touch.’
Just-!
The conversion blow was blocked by Duncan’s tonfa.
Duncan grinned and lifted another tonpa, as if trying to wash away his previous humiliation, and smashed Oliver’s quarterstaff with all his might.
By concentrating the magic on the tonfa.
[Ras Boom]
Before Duncan’s tonfa reached Oliver’s quarterstaff, Oliver used the Lars Boom first.
An explosion erupted between the arms of Duncan, who had been vigilant.
Duncan, whose defense had loosened by concentrating his magic on the attack, let out a moan and slowly stretched his arms.
Did he even drop one of the tonpas he didn’t let go?
When Oliver tried to pick up the tonfa that had fallen to the floor, he hurriedly kicked it and threw it back a few steps.
It was quite painful and it was hard to breathe, but Oliver was grateful nonetheless.
Because this was the situation Oliver wanted.
Oliver focused his attention on his eyes and looked around quickly.
He was so focused that time seemed to pass slowly, and Duncan, who was bleeding with burns on his hands, pulled out a necklace and healed himself.
Oliver brought the tonfa that fell on the floor at the right time to the target and took it, then poured out the remaining life test tube and gave life to the Pink Man corpses scattered around.
Since it only needs to be used once anyway, I tried to increase the number by giving it the minimum vitality, and then I used the remaining emotions to give the zombie black magic.
Since the target was only one Duncan, [Object Hat] was set to attack only Duncan, and [Muscle Up] was used to increase his strength.
Thanks to this, Duncan was immediately surrounded by a swarm of dozens of zombies.
Duncan has completed his recovery.
Without embarrassment, he banged the remaining tonpa! humming-! humming-! Defeated all the zombies approaching by swinging.
Seriously, for him with superhuman physical abilities, about a dozen zombies wouldn’t be a threat enough to use a Holy Light.
At that time, Oliver additionally enchanted the zombie with black magic.
It was the black magic used at the villa, blister.
With the spell, purple blisters sprouted from the bodies of the broken and less broken zombies.
At that moment, Duncan had a gut feeling that something was wrong.
‘Even if you’re not afraid of swords and guns, you’re afraid of disease.’
As Oliver learned something new, he used black magic at the same time.
[Coffs Bomb]
Black magic that penetrated even the bark armor of a druid.
Even if it can withstand the explosion with massive magical armor, it will be difficult to be completely safe due to the blisters.
Duncan thought the same thing, so he used the item again to activate the Holy Law.
[Holy Light]
A dazzling light enveloped the surroundings, burning the surrounding zombies and black magic.
dazzling extent. Looking back, it was truly terrifying.
“You really…”
-[Imprison]
Immediately after Duncan used the Holy Method, Oliver pulled out all the remaining emotions and sang.
Then black emotions entangled like mud and approached Duncan, transformed into a gigantic amorphous substance and swallowed up Duncan who had just finished the rite.
It was like a fly-hell.
In a panic, Duncan radiated magical energy to push him away, and tried to burn Imprision using the Holy Law.
Although the resistance was strong, the Imprision, which used all the remaining emotions, stuck to it and did not disappear easily even if it burned.
“What the hell is this?!”
Duncan shouted in embarrassment, but was swallowed up by Imprision again and could not finish his speech.
Duncan’s emotions were tainted with confusion and fear, but Oliver was still vigilant.
Currently, Oliver’s Imprision is limiting his body for a while.
If Duncan continued to resist, it was the Imprision that eventually disappeared first, and it was Oliver who died.
In this fleeting moment, Oliver had to find a way to break through this tough fight.
‘But how?’
Oliver thought.
Even if there was a limit to the use of items imbued with the Holy Law, Oliver could not know how much it was.
Before that, Oliver had no more feelings.
‘Should I pick up a stone and hit the head? Or do you poke it with a quarter staff?’
A simple physical attack was also considered, but it seemed unlikely.
While I was thinking about it, Imprision was almost exhausted.
Contrary to magic, when I resisted with the Holy Law, the consumption of Imprision was fast, and it was truly pathetic.
When I wrote it to Joanna, I just ignored the stronger sacraments.
Oliver tried to extract his emotions just in case.
It was an urgent situation, so I wanted to see if something would come out, but unfortunately nothing came out.
‘What’s causing this?’
Oliver thought so and looked at the last remaining object.
Duncan fighting the half-shrunken Imprision.
‘I have to extract something first.’
Oliver thought so and raised his hands in the air.
Then, a large amount of emotions and vitality were extracted from Duncan.
Then, I tried to tie Duncan down by adding emotion to the Imprision, just like I did with the wizard in the past.
It was a pretty decent way to go one-on-one. There is a high probability that the opponent will go out first.
However, if there is a difference, it is that the speed of Duncan’s escape was faster because of the use of the Holy Beop.
Oliver, who became impatient, gradually increased the amount of extraction.
“This late autumn mosquito-like baby……!!!”
Duncan screams in anger.
Either way, Oliver raised the output even more.
‘It’s not enough. more···. more····! more····! Anything more!’
In that moment, for the first time in his life, Oliver was able to extract more than emotion and vitality.
That’s right, it was magic.
