250. God of Lightning and Clouds
Just as a fierce battle is taking place on the royal rooftop. Below, in the city where souls were rising and the road ahead was difficult to see, the difficult times continued.
Gloria, the knight commander, is running around the city, walking among souls. She thought that unless she was a warlock, there would be no danger to her.
As the situation unfolded, a monster that could not be compared to a warlock was roaming the city.
“Huh!”
The sword of flame swings, cutting between souls. Her sword can’t harm souls anyway.
Therefore, she swung without hesitation, but the opponent actually caught her sword without even seeing her movement.
It felt like I was hitting steel with my fist.
The tall man with long blond hair was showing skill in taking the sword of Gloria, the leader of the knights, with his shoulder, while a leisurely smile was flowing from his mouth.
Pajik! Puzzle!
The electric current flowing through the man’s entire body was crying fiercely, protecting its owner.
“Ahahahaha.”
The man’s voice rang out just as heavily.
The moment his golden eyes looked at Gloria as she crossed her arms, she instantly felt a shock piercing through her body.
Holding a sword and living as a prosecutor.
She never thought that she was inferior to anyone else in terms of skills.
For the first time, I began to wonder whether there would be a future where I would triumph over the being in front of me.
“How can you try so hard?”
He extends his hand towards Gloria with a truly sad look on his face.
“In the end, it is the way of the continent that followed its fate.”
A palm so huge that she could hold Gloria’s face in one hand.
For a moment, her body stiffened and she could not move properly.
“Come to your senses!”
Cow!
Magic Judge Tyrn Ol Bellokus and the judges who followed him appeared, striking Gloria’s shoulder armor with his staff.
Thanks to this, Gloria, free from the man’s hands, shakes her head in the air a few times to come to her senses.
“I’m sorry…… Thank you.”
The two men are among the most powerful in the Griffin Kingdom. And even the Magic Judges, who are said to be the ultimate counter for magicians.
It was all the power he had to deal with a tall man who was walking around as if looking at a chaotic city.
But still, the man scratches his chin and shows no particular reaction.
There is no common fighting spirit or even a plan to destroy the enemy. I just looked indifferently at the people listed in front of me.
He would probably make a similar expression even if cows and chickens were lined up in front of him like this.
“What about the Knights of the Guard?”
When Tyrn sensed an unusual energy and asked without turning her eyes, Gloria answered by biting her lip.
“Floor.”
“… ….”
Tairn, who had been tense at those words, lowered his eyes slightly.
I couldn’t see it clearly because the countless souls coming up to the ground were covering the surroundings like fog.
I could see that the red armor of the Guard Knights was already lying on the floor.
That was the end.
Taylor did not ask any more questions.
The Knights of the Guard were defeated, and only the leader, Gloria, remained.
“It’s dangerous.”
“We are fighting while dealing with lightning. “Raise the shield as much as possible.”
Tyrn and Gloria swallowed their saliva and pointed their staff and sword at the man in front of them.
“Hmm, why are the clouds still?”
In fact, the man strokes his chin and glances at the sky.
The moment he saw the souls of Hertia and Stella facing each other, his expression showed a faint anger for the first time.
“This is absurd.”
Pajijijijijik!
A thunderbolt that cries out fiercely as if it represents anger. As if he were a lightning rod, he begins to emit electricity from his entire body and spread it in all directions.
The ground is cracking and the buildings are disintegrating.
Even the spirits widen their distance from the man out of fear and fly toward the rooftop of the royal palace out of urgency.
Only after seeing that did the two vaguely realize the identity of the giant in front of them.
A deity known as the greatest and greatest warrior among the secret warriors of the gods.
Raiser, the ruler of lightning and clouds.
Let him take a step forward.
Numerous spears of lightning rising from the ground scream, threatening to bite the knight and the chief judge.
* * *
[…] ….]
A cloud of divine power that stopped the advance.
Stella carefully looked down at the rooftop of the royal palace, and there she saw Findeneye and the Dark Spirit in the midst of a bloody battle.
[Senior… ….]
In particular, Stella clenched her fists as she looked at the dark spirit who was dealing with Herald Hazard.
No matter how great a necromancer the Dark Spirit is, his opponent is the one who single-handedly brought the nation to destruction.
Especially now, he was using magic without hesitation in the name of carrying his own beliefs and the fate of the continent.
Nevertheless, the sight of the dark spirit struggling to protect Deius Verdi was stimulating Stella’s heart.
“Stella.”
At that time, the fire goddess Hertia, who was looking at Stella with a dark expression filled with various concerns, calls her.
“No matter what, it’s hard to trust that man.”
[…] ….]
“The moment we’ve been waiting for for countless years has finally come, and we can’t ruin it because of that one man.”
Before Kim Shin-woo even arrived.
I have been waiting for this moment for countless years. Aria Five years from when Rias entered the Academy to when she graduated.
That’s why there are gods looking down on the continent.
In the end, did we fail to persuade?
Stella strengthened her resolve towards the god she had once served, and tried to suppress his divine power again.
“But.”
Hertia adds her afterword.
My throat is sore because I tasted her bitter truth.
“Will we, who have lived for just those five years, be able to enjoy freedom just because that time has passed?”
In the end.
I have lived according to a certain trend and achieved it. In fact, we don’t know the truth and nothing has changed.
After everything is over, the gods…
When they reach the last page of their fate.
What will it look like?
Freedom?
Will they really be happy to be free from the name fate?
Is the freedom that was gained in that way real freedom in the first place?
The freedom held without knowing anything is not much different from being locked in a large cage.
“And if we only lived that way, wouldn’t our lives be so pathetic?”
Hertia sighed and had no choice but to admit it in the end. I was trapped in the frame of fate for so long that I was bound by it.
“I don’t trust that man, though.”
Stranger.
A being outside the eyes of the gods, twisting and destroying fate at every turn.
Hertia could not trust Kim Shin-woo, either rationally or emotionally.
However.
Until the moment of death.
He did not give up on his justice even in the midst of the tragedy of having his limbs amputated by demons.
“My pride. “I trust you.”
[Goddess Hertia.]
“I will harvest divine power. “I hope that the future you hope for smiles at us too.”
The cloud of divine power begins to slowly spread. The sunset that comes between them.
[Thank you.]
Even though the faith and words were false. Stella could have been satisfied even if she had devoted her life to just this moment.
A gentle smile.
And then a huge lightning strike rises from the ground and strikes the sky.
Quad deuk!
I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.
The goddess, who had just declared that she would take a step back for Stella, suddenly splits in half and collapses on top of her cloud.
Pajik! Puzzle!
The noise of the thunderbolt that shows off its presence suggests that nothing is over yet.
“If that was your choice, I respect it, Hertia.”
Raizer, who killed even the gods who were her compatriots, stretches out his hand towards the clouds.
God of lightning and clouds.
The clouds of divine power that had been scattered began to gather again and keep the surrounding souls in check.
“However, we cannot sit idly by if it means blocking our long-held wish.”
The owner of the thunderbolt was different from Goddess Hertia. She was as strong and unwavering as his large body, and she left him no room for compromise.
And this time his hand.
It reached out to Stella.
[Ah… ….]
She gently closed her eyes, looking at the electric shock pouring down on her.
I guess.
Her own journey seemed to end here.
Quaaang!
After punishing the goddess and the saint, Raizer strengthens his resolve and stretches his hand toward the sky again.
“After thousands of years, we have come this far. “We can’t fail like this.”
Passy!
Once again, lightning strikes.
The cloud of divine power became a thundercloud and attempted to inflict divine punishment on the souls crawling up from the ground.

Numerous golden butterflies begin to flap their wings to protect the souls and take the beating on their behalf.
A huge golden butterfly stands in front of Raizer and Erica Bright is on top of it.
“…… “Is it the spirit king?”
Raiser looks at the Spirit King of Light who is blocking his path with a miserable feeling.
The electricity that was still bouncing from his fingertips was showing hostility even to spirits who had lived for a similar period of time.
The Spirit King said nothing.
However, for the sake of his own contract, he blocked the way of God. Erica, who was riding on top of the Spirit King, also had no intention of backing down for the man she loved.
‘The Commander of the Knights Gloria and the High Magic Judge were also punished.’
Even Stella’s appearance is no longer visible.
Erica also knows very well how powerful the being in front of her is.
‘I can’t send it.’
Even if it meant risking her life, she planned to stop the man in front of her.
