Episode 122. Battle for a saint (8)
“Ka, Charon! “He’s still alive!”
Jay, who was trembling after seeing Lakhe’s sword slash, shouted loudly.
“A woman with a totem attacked the headquarters along with goddess cultists and zombies!”
“It’s just around the corner!”
“Please help!”
These were the reptilians who opened their mouths and said, “This is the time.” It’s almost like a baby bird looking for its mother.
[I will borrow your eyes for a moment.]
“…Yes? Ugh!”
Red energy flowing from the black skull covered Jay’s head.
[It’s been a while, Malak.]
Jay’s eyes turn to Totem No. 3.
– Charon.
It was a threat from the beginning, but now it has become an opponent to be even more wary of.
I don’t know if her victory means beating and chasing him out, or killing him and putting him in her corpse army, but doesn’t she mean that she defeated the manifest Loa?
It is clearly a divine being.
[Indeed. Did she regain much of her strength with the help of that demigod?]
Jay’s gaze lingered for a moment before returning to Lakhe, who was attacking her shield.
[He killed a high-ranking demon.]
Is this Charon who couldn’t control his anger when he saw me? He’s so calm.
Did you feel better after defeating Loa?
– Perhaps because I became your henchman, there was nothing special about it.
[Is that so? It’s my fault for not treating you properly.]
Ah, this is ominous. It sounds like you are saying that you will be treated properly now.
What the hell are you trying to say?
[I have a gut feeling that I must stop you here and now, no matter what the cost. My intuition has never been wrong.]
– Lakhe. Quickly destroy the shield.
“Yes.”
An ominous premonition occurred, prompting Lakhe’s act of destruction. Even Asha, who was guarding the Pope, moved.
Bang! Bang!
We must quickly kill the reptilians and destroy that black skull. I have that feeling.
[It is time to put an end to our long relationship. Isn’t that right, Malak?]
As soon as Charon finished speaking, red energy flowed from the black skull and penetrated into the bodies of Jay and other reptilians.
“Knock, gag!”
“Ugh!”
The reptilians struggle in pain. The red energy brought out white smoke from their bodies and entered their skulls.
… Are you absorbing my soul?
“This is betrayal… ! “It’s a betrayal!”
Jay, who held on until the end, screamed, but Charon only spoke calmly.
[I was going to die anyway. At least be thankful that you can take them as companions.]
“What a bastard!”
Jay, who had seen white smoke, rolled over his eyelids and collapsed. As soon as all the reptilians’ smoke entered, the black skeleton began to wriggle.
This is crazy. Flesh is growing on your skull, right?
Yes!
Lakhe, who broke the shield one step too late, rushed forward and swung his meteor sword.
hahahaha!
The flesh was split into two, but the proliferation did not stop. It quickly came together and grew, making the sound of a kettle boiling.
“Ugh… “
“Spear of light!”
Even Asha and the Pope did not cause much damage.
At that time, the bodies of the dead reptilians swelled and exploded. It is not an ordinary explosion, but a magical explosion.
Charon must have used a trick.
“Huh!”
Bang! With the sound of an explosion, two people and a zombie are thrown out.
– … !
I don’t know what that lump of flesh will turn into once it finishes multiplying. Charon’s main body may come.
If that happens, it’s over. If you fight him without obtaining the Manifestation, you will inevitably lose.
After much thought, I used the ‘Totem of Confusion’ towards the skeleton.
It could only be used once a day, so it had to be used carefully, but there seemed to be no more dangerous situation than now.
When the Totem of Confusion was used, a black tentacle protruded from the flesh as if waiting.
In an instant, the black tentacles wrapped around the flesh wriggled a few times and then disappeared.
… What? What happened?
From Noble mtl dot com
[hahahaha!]
I can hear Charon laughing.
[Did you think you would get hit by the same move twice? You looked at me so disrespectfully. God of wind and rain!]
This is crazy! Have you already created a law of destruction?
The title of the greatest priest of all time was not earned through rock, paper, scissors. He’s a capable bastard.
Grrr-!
With a strange sound I had never heard before, the lump of flesh took on its perfect shape.
A half-human, half-horse figure with the upper body of a woman and the lower body of a horse appeared.
– He is a high-ranking devil. Be careful.
Ha. The stingray demon wasn’t the end. A hidden boss has appeared.
Although he was only of the lower class, he gave off a different energy. It was clearly a high-ranking demon who had become a zombie.
Did I summon the guy from the base here with an ability similar to my transmission totem?
[This is a demon called the hunting god. He’s good at interpersonal combat. Even if he were a demigod, he would be able to kill him.]
Thank you for the explanation. You kind bastard.
The first to attack was Lakhe.
She swung her head a few times, as if to shake off the aftereffects of her explosion, and then swung her meteor sword.
It was a quick and harsh blow, but the half-man, half-horse easily jumped to avoid it. It was an incredible reflex speed.
Fight!
The half-human, half-demon gathered her magic power to create a bow and arrow and began her shooting. An arrow as long as a spear is shot towards Lakhe.
Bang!
His blow pierced the Pope’s shield in one go. Lakhe, who narrowly avoided it, got a small cut on his cheek.
I have watched Lakhe fight dozens of times, but this is the first time I have seen him bleed. It was such a threatening attack.
If you hit it wrong, you could lose your life. He healed her wounds with a healing totem.
Other than that, the situation is not good. Lakhe used ‘Potential Explosion’ several times today. Her stamina must have dropped a lot.
If it was a long game, it was obvious that we would lose. She must be killed quickly.
All orders given to Asha were canceled except for ‘Kill the enemy.’ It was to bring out all of Asha’s skills.
– Pope. This is not a situation where I can protect you. Apply in a safe place.
I said it was a safe place, but actually, I don’t know where it is safe.
The Pope’s protective shield was breached in one fell swoop. Where on earth can it be safe? I’m sorry, but I couldn’t afford to pay attention to him.
“I understand. “I will try harder.”
It was the Pope who spoke calmly, whether he knew how I felt or not.
Lakhe, who became alert, Asha, who focused on the battle, and Pope, who hindered the enemy by applying various debuffs, fought with all their might, but the opponent was too bad.
Charon seemed to have already finished her reign and used strange spells and buffs to support her half-human, half-demon.
“Ha!”
Lake’s meteor sword cut into the body of the half-man and half-demon several times, but it was useless.
[With excellent weapons and body. I should have both.]
This is because every time Charon, borrowing the mouth of a half-man, half-demon, chanted a strange spell, the devil’s wounds were healed.
Could it be possible to manipulate Reno Johnson’s soul to find out the location of the Hidden Pieces and collect all the nearby Hidden Pieces to become stronger so quickly?
If it weren’t for that damn necromancer, I would have already become a half-human, half-demon.
[Young demigod, stop giving up. You can’t beat me If you drop your sword, I will kill you with ease.]
“The apostate just keeps his mouth shut… !”
Lake was breathing heavily, probably due to low stamina.
It’s not good. Not good.
[Good. It was worth expending a lot of energy. Malak, I will make up for this loss with your followers.]
I completely ignored his aggro and read the information contained in his words.
Charon seems to have consumed a lot of resources by summoning high-ranking demons. If you kill a half-human, half-horse, it will also suffer great damage.
But… He doesn’t know how to kill him.
The rapid fire of the half-man, half-demon, who threw out attacks here and there with nimble steps, turned Asha, who played the role of tank, into her hedgehog.
“Ahh… !”
Asha collapsed with a painful groan as dozens of arrows pierced her body. She doesn’t seem to have any energy to play.
“Ugh.”
The Pope’s complexion also worsened. Is it because I used the goddess’s power too much?
Her mind turns blank. What should I do? I can’t buy the present with the points I have now.
Why doesn’t a new blessing appear even though I caught a high-ranking demon? The score came in. Is this because the incarnation is the end?
Even if I invest in other blessings, I don’t think I can turn this situation around.
Tribal federation is too far away. It’s all over before reinforcements arrive.
You won’t be able to get Jin Malak’s help. If he could have helped, he would have already done so.
What should I do?
Think about it. There must be a way. Think.
“Ha… I am… “
The Pope muttered to himself behind the scenes. I couldn’t hear it well because I was so excited.
“I wanted to live… ha ha ha… “
For some reason, I heard that one word clearly.
… Yes, you want to live. So I reached out to the pagan god.
“Huh… Huh… !”
I saw Lakhe. She was fighting with her eyes wide open.
You probably still believe in me.
– …
Let’s calmly try to get her head back on track. There might be a way.
Charon said that, apparently after much sacrifice, she summoned a high-ranking demon. Her retention time may be short.
Let’s find the weaknesses.
“Malak, do you remember? This is why I ascended to the position of Pope without formalities.”
What caused him to ascend to the position of Pope without formalities? It was such a random question that I looked away.
The Pope was smiling gently.
“I guess there was a reason why I came here.”
