97 – Retribution (2)
Evil spirits decorated the heavens and the earth.
Hatred of the living. Or, the malice that was originally there bloomed in the storm.
Sirien, who cleared away the flock of demons, now stopped the violent demons.
The divinity and sword energy destroyed several evil spirits, but in the meantime, Nezra pulled out her body.
It’s a shame. If I had pushed a little harder, I could have finished it.
“It seemed like I was being pushed, Nezra.”
“I would have told you not to interfere. “I never asked you to save me.”
“You have a long tongue when you lose miserably. Do you think I went out of my way for you? If you die here, things will go wrong and it will be difficult. “I keep saying, keep your contract.”
Hybras guides the dead, but not all souls fall asleep in Hybras’ arms.
Occasionally, a spirit that harbors resentment or malice becomes a vengeful spirit and wanders this world.
Even if they wander around for such a long time, it is difficult for the dead to intervene with the living, but they were attacking us as if they were showing off.
‘The culprit is probably that guy.’
The boy next to Nezra.
He was a thin and fragile-looking child who looked as if he would break if touched.
The items that Baron Iklan purchased were probably for that guy.
No matter how you look at it, that boy was human.
The power to control evil spirits was also a supernatural ability that could be felt with the skin.
At least according to my common sense, there was no one among the demons who displayed supernatural abilities.
But what we see is reality. The dark magic power unique to the demons surrounded each of the evil spirits.
Sirien cut her palm with the blade of an axe.
As the sacred blood fell on her floor, the evil spirits let out terrible screams.
– Ahhhhh!
– It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!
– Don’t bother me, don’t bother me, don’t bother me!
– I will rip out your eyes, sew your mouth, and rip out your limbs!
A form that gains substance through supernatural abilities and amplifies its power through magical power.
The evil spirits embodied violence based on their own desires.
While there was a guy who rushed at me with physical force, there was also a guy who made a black awl in the empty air.
It was a good thing I came here alone with Sirien.
If we had dealt with these evil spirits together with others, many of them would have surely died.
What if a lot of soldiers had been brought in for a large-scale search?
His body would have been torn apart in an instant or his life would have been lost at the hands of those evil spirits.
The divinity of Hybras would never have been able to protect people from those things.
The divinity of rest is especially strong against souls, but it never has a positive effect on the living either.
“Nezra, I will support you, so go and take your time.”
The boy ordered Nezra.
Seeing that such a thing was possible, it was not difficult to guess its identity.
In this world, it is difficult to find demons who use supernatural abilities or demon kings who give strength to their subordinates in that way.
Decarabia is human. It also parasitized someone with supernormal abilities as a host.
I thought she had attracted quite a big name just from Nezura, but I never thought she would have attracted a demon lord.
The scale of the accident struck by the Marquis of Eloran, who was said to be a great nobleman even though he was rotten, was extraordinary.
‘Now that I think about it, I can’t see Baron Iklan. Did he run away?’
Because we were dealing with Nezra, we didn’t even have time to worry about the minnows.
You could have escaped with great skill, or you could have been caught up in Sirien’s divinity and died.
Whether that guy was dead or alive right away was none of my business.
If you live now, how far can you run away?
If I kill Nezra here, the Marquis of Eloran will be overthrown sooner or later.
Sirien approached me before I knew it and patted my back.
“Don’t worry, fight, Razen. I’m behind you. “Your one and only saint.”
“I wasn’t worried or anything. “If I don’t trust you, who will I trust?”
“It feels good to hear that.”
On the other hand, we couldn’t allow something like that to attack the rear of the Northern Front.
The demon beasts we killed today were opponents that could not be looked down on at the level of ordinary soldiers.
“Rest to the wandering ghosts.”
Sirien’s mouth twitched several times.
The mighty divinity attacked the evil spirits like catching mice, but the situation did not seem very optimistic.
There is only one Sirien, but her demons are so numerous that it is hard to estimate them right away.
They ran here and there and rushed towards Nana Sirien.
Eliminating those things one by one was too inefficient.
Sirien does not have the ability to infinitely extract divinity.
Surely it would be quicker for us to collapse from exhaustion than to kill all those evil spirits.
There is a reason why someone as high as the devil lives on humans.
The combination of that boy and Decaravia was never an easy one.
While my saint endured, I had to somehow achieve results.
“I was in a hurry. I didn’t want it to end like this, but I was pushing myself.”
“You don’t have to worry too much. “After I kill that bug, I will definitely finish it for you.”
“It’s a bug. Ha, that’s a funny expression. “Is it possible for a human being to call that old demon king like that?”
I exerted too much force, even if it was a bit excessive.
In an instant, Sirien’s blessing surrounded me, and my sword rushed towards Nezra.
Kwakagagak! Nezra’s sword energy was consumed, and the blade scattered like powder.
If that guy has magic, I have divinity.
The blade rising from the floor breaks Nezra’s balance, and my sword strikes continue to aim for his heart.
There were attempts to focus only on defense with magic and swords, but they could never defeat me in a simple firefight.
As the divinely forged sword struck from the sky, Nezra vomited her blood.
“Khaaa!”
“The legs are empty. This time, my waist.”
I kicked Nezra’s leg.
Then, she used her sword and her weight to strike Nez Ra’s solar plexus with her elbow.
“You poor bastard. I believed this and sat down as I said it. Is it true that you really had a fight with your father? “How could this bastard call himself my father’s enemy?”
“hehehe…… Nevertheless, it is true. I stabbed Arzenbertus in the heart and cut off his head. Although he did not do it alone, he played a decisive role.”
“Hmm. Well, that’s the last thing I want as a father.”
It means that you poured everything you had into just being able to defeat this guy.
My sword and my father’s sword are different. It was safe to say that it was a completely different sword, not only in appearance but also in intent and texture.
However, eight-tenth of the skills I have come from my father.
What I learned firsthand when I was young. Or something you got hit with during sparring.
Although I couldn’t handle it at the time, as my skills improved, I modified the techniques that became my own, and my current sword is the result.
And I dare say, my father was a natural with a sword.
A viscount in name only in a corner of the countryside.
In fact, it is not easy for someone who was no different from a commoner to become the ‘Sword of Ilencia’.
The reason I am strong today may be because I was born with my father’s blood.
“Dekarabia! “Not yet?”
“Don’t talk like it’s easy. “The Saint of Hybras is more annoying than I expected.”
Now, Nezra’s sword skills could not even establish proper defense.
The reason that guy was able to endure was because his body didn’t even flinch from any serious wounds, and because the evil spirit of Decarabia continued to support him.
However…… The problem was Sirien.
Even though I pretended to be fine on the outside, my complexion was already quite pale.

The divinity that had been suppressing the evil spirits seemed to have lost some of its momentum.
It seemed like the battle with Decaravia was quite burdensome.
It was something that could not be helped. Deka Ravia’s original counterpart is not an easy opponent, but she is now in a situation where she has some strange abilities added to her.
I had no choice but to hurry.
“Stop messing around and die.”
“Is that possible? “It’s such a happy fight, so let’s enjoy it a little more.”
“I don’t think I can hold out much.”
The wave-like blade tears apart Nezra’s sword.
The sound that used to explode like thunder every time the swords collided gradually became less and less audible.
The blood of demons was sprinkled on the dirt floor of the mountain range, and the magic that was constantly exploding gradually disappeared.
And my sword cut off Nezra’s arm.
As the toothless greatsword rolled across the floor, Nezra’s upper and lower body fell in two.
I was still alive, but it was really over now.
The evil spirits rushed at me all at once, but Sirien’s curtain blocked them.
“Oh my, it’s really over now. hehehehe…… This is it. When it’s time to die, all kinds of dirty thoughts come to mind. “I don’t want to die, but I don’t want to go to the extent of begging for my life.”
It seemed like Nezra was muttering something more, but she didn’t seem to need to listen.
I put my greatsword in the ground and pulled out the sword from my waist.
It was my father’s sword.
“With this, I have avenged my enemy…… “I won’t necessarily brag about it, because I don’t want to disturb you since you’re spending some time alone with your mother.”
A gray blade cut off Nezra’s neck.
That was the end.
“I will visit you at the grave soon, so let’s solve the problem then.”
