31 Ascalonga (7)
bang! bang! bang! Quang!
A private outdoor gymnasium in front of Jaseonggung Palace.
There was a constant roar from there.
The roar was the sound of none other than the 4th Prince Utekan pounding his fist against a huge rock near the dance hall.
“ Woo-wook! Whoops!”
Because he was only beating with the power of his body, his breath was rising sharply, but Utekan did not stop his movements.
No, it was beaten even harder.
Quang! Quang!
Otherwise, there was no way to release the anger boiling from within.
“ Ahhh!”
Perhaps that wasn’t enough, the roar that erupted from Utekan’s mouth.
There was one reason he was so angry.
No, to be precise, it was correct to say that it was one person.
“ Zion Agnes!!”
The person who worries Utekan the most these days, and the only person who gave him failure.
“ This dog-like guy… … !”
Even so, he was originally Utekan who did not express his anger this much, but the current situation was making him do this.
After nearly a week had passed since the attack on Chimseonggung, Hanosral and his immediate units had lost contact.
It obviously meant their death.
Even though my head was dazed from the astonishment caused by that, I was able to suppress my anger up to that point.
However,
“ Dare you mine!!”
The counterattack that followed.
After the attack on Chimseonggung, he was attacking Utekan’s own secret forces in the capital from Zion’s side.
Humans, demons, armed groups, workplaces, etc.
An indiscriminate attack of any kind.
As a result, Utekan’s dark power was rapidly declining even now.
Although the link between the powers was cut off late, Zion Agnes persisted and reconnected even the broken link.
What was even more heartbreaking was that there was only one person attacking his own forces.
‘ That red-eyed woman next to Zion Agnes.’
By that one woman, the secret branches where there were at least dozens of demons were being annihilated without even being able to resist.
variables that were not expected at all.
Even the high-ranking demons who went to apply could not stand the woman and were told that they were mercilessly slaughtered.
“ Whew… … .”
Where should I start to fix this situation?
I couldn’t even get a feel for it.
Of course, removing Zion Agnes would solve all of this, but it couldn’t.
Because at the moment there is no proper way.
“ What is Sion Agnes doing now?”
Utekan, who had suppressed that feeling of frustration, asked the subordinate demon who was nearby.
“ Zion Agnes is currently visiting the Ascalon Street.”
“ I know that. I’m asking what you’re doing there.”
“ It wasn’t quite clear until then.”
At those words, before Utekan burst into anger again, the subordinate demons quickly spoke.
“ But other than that, I have some strange news.”
“… … Tell me.”
“ It is said that a call to the governor came from within the Ascalon family a while ago.”
“ What?”
At that, Utekan’s eyes were dyed with doubt.
Because that was a really strange word.
Utekan knew the current state of Ludwig, the head of Ascalon.
“ The sword king, who can’t even properly form a ceremony, has issued an order to summon the entire family?”
Something didn’t feel right.
Yes, I could have yielded it a hundred times.
However, the fact that the summons had been issued while Sion Agnes was visiting Ascalon was making Utekan reluctant.
The ominousness that swarms with him.
In my experience so far, whenever something like this is ominous, something always happens.
That too in a very bad way.
“ Be more precise. Why did you issue the summons, and where did you gather?”
“ I see!”
A new type of demon that disappears immediately with the answer whether such Utekan’s feelings have been conveyed.
“ What the hell are you planning on doing this time, Zion?”
A voice mixed with anger and suspicion came out of Utekan’s mouth as he looked at the place where the demons disappeared.
* * *
hell.
Have you ever wondered what hell would be like for those who sinned to die?
Rohanna had never thought about it, but she thought that what she was seeing now would be like hell.
aah!
at least several years.
as long as several decades.
The people she had been with for a lifetime was turning into a hideous monster right before her eyes.
Williech, the escort swordsman of the Mangeomdang, whom he has been close friends with.

My cousin Trian, who always trusted and relied on her.
And many other people who were like family.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the sight of such people spewing out magical energy all at once in front of their eyes is hell itself.
“ Ah, ah… … .”
For a moment, my head went blank, and only a blank voice came out of my mouth.
Not only her, but most of the people who had not turned into monsters had similar reactions.
As much as a third of the people gathered in the Great Sword Hall were turned into monsters in an instant, the shock was indescribable.
at that time,
aah!
One of the nearby monsters ran towards Rohanna.
The monster’s eyes were red and bloodshot as if they had already lost their reason.
It was the moment when the monster, who had reached right in front of her in an instant, swung her front paws at her, who had not yet come to her senses.
Gee!
A single line drawn from the top of the monster’s head to the groin without any warning.
Soon after,
blah blah!
The body of the monster split along that line fell sideways.
And after that, there is one person who is seen.
“ Si, His Majesty Zion… … .”
It was Shion who took out Iklaxia instead of Agdevar, who had been stuck in the center of the red circle.
“ I would die if I stayed like that.”
Sion looks at her with eyes that do not contain any emotions and opens her mouth.
“ Damn, what the hell is this… … .”
Rohanna, who looked at Zion with trembling eyes, was about to answer.
“ The demons you see now are the darkness that has engulfed the Ascalon family!”
Ludwig’s roaring cry came into her ear.
“ These guys have already killed our family, friends, and lovers before taking their place and corroding the family.”
The king of swords who sits at the table and continues his words while staring at all the sights with cold eyes.
“ Therefore, I, Ludwig Ascalon, the head of the Ascalon family and one of the ‘Seven Heavens’, declares here.”
Finally, the last words that sounded like an oath flowed out of his mouth.
“ Today, Ascalon will remove all the darkness that corrodes the family.”
with him,
“ Sweep it all away!”
The two sons on either side of Ludwig and Durandal, the direct swordsman behind him, began to jump out at the monsters with great speed.
Kwagwagwagwagwang!
A terrifying clash ensued.
“ This dog-like monster bastard is Alesha!”
“ I will kill you!”
Soon after, the people of the Ascalon family, who were awakened by that, began to engage in the skirmish one by one.
Although he had not yet fully grasped the current situation, Ludwig’s shouts and the disgusting magic emanating from the monsters’ bodies were making it known who their foes were now.
In addition, their anger at losing family and close people in an instant was immense.
‘ Now this seems to be fine.’
Quad Duck!
In the middle of such a battlefield, Sion’s gaze swung to one side, as she cut down two monsters that were rushing towards her at once.

Most of the monsters revealed their identities due to the improved red circle, but not all of them.
The guys exposed now are all below intermediate level.
It seemed that the effect of the red circle did not reach the advanced level yet.
‘ Well, it doesn’t matter.’
In the original story, all the high-ranking demons in the Ascalon family will be killed by the hero’s party.
Therefore, their identity was recorded in the chronicle.
Of course, Sion, who had seen the chronicle, knew who they were.
‘ I don’t think I’ve decided what to do yet.’
Seeing them rolling their eyes here and there with impatient eyes while still in their human form, Sion smiled lightly.
Now is the time to help you make that choice.
cancer remnants.
Shion’s new form, engulfed in darkness for a moment, disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of Sreuk-one of them.
A demon with a surprised expression looking at Zion who suddenly appeared in the form of one of the Ascalon family elders.
“ Si, before Zion… … !”
At the same time, before the words that came out of his mouth were finished,
“ Who’s telling you?”
Zion’s Iklaxia, which was lifted up, fell vertically.
A black island that naturally forms on the blade of such an extinct light sword.
“… … !”
The eerie energy felt from him, the demons quickly raised the demon and defended it.
His intuition whispered that if he showed his magic, his identity would be revealed, but if he didn’t do this, the attack could not be stopped.
And to some extent, that intuition was right.
Suga Gaga!
Sion’s sword, which ripped through the magical defenses at once, was drawn down to his left shoulder as it was.
If the Magi had not been raised, the split would have been the entire upper body of the Demon.
– Whoa!
The upper demon, Kreon, who screamed at the pain he felt from him, began to return to its original form.
read at noblemtl. com
Magi that increases explosively with him.
Even after seeing the change, Zion’s eyes were as calm as the first time.
– This dog-like bloodline of Agnes!
Cryon, who knew from the beginning that Shion knew his true identity, rushed in screaming.
hey hey!
With him, the bones like saw blades protruding from his body start spinning and sparking in all directions.
Each of them has the power to change even a small enough building.
Those bones were concentrated in Creon’s right hand and shot towards Zion.
Shion did not avoid the attack.
No, there was no need to avoid it.
blah blah blah blah!
Heukseongha, who was already knocking on the 4 star wall, was enough to break through that blow.
Shion’s Iklaxia, which was pulled to the limit of its range of motion and pushed forward, smashed Kreon’s blade bones in one breath.
– What… … !
Even so, the demons, astonished at seeing Iklaxia coming in without losing their strength, quickly turned around and bowed their heads.
However,
Whirlik!
At that moment, the tip of Zion’s sword bends like a snake and follows Creon’s movements.
How many beings can accurately change the trajectory of an attack fired at full speed in response to the opponent’s movement?
It was a difficult skill that very few could do even in Ascalon, who is called the best swordsman in the empire, but Shion was doing it very naturally.
In the end, such a sword of Zion,
Quad Duck!
It stopped only after digging deep between Creon’s collarbones.
Fuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
A secondary explosion of black stars that occurs from the tip of the embedded Zion’s sword.
– Ouch!
Creon, who vomited a scream that was suppressed by the internally shattered pain, somehow managed to get out and repair himself, but Suga Gagak!
Shion’s succession was much faster.
It was as if Creon knew what to do.
Darkness was exploding like an explosion from Shion’s whole body, but there was no sound of the rusty door opening that leaked out when the lunar eclipse was triggered.
‘ I’m not going to use a lunar eclipse this time.’
Until now, lunar eclipses were not an option, but a necessity when dealing with high-level demons.
Because the advanced demons were so powerful, it was impossible to deal with them unless the Black Star was amplified several times due to the lunar eclipse.
But now, Zion’s body was closer to perfection than before, and the status of the Black Star had risen even further.
‘ You can’t use a lunar eclipse all the time.’
The lunar eclipse was a powerful technique that was called a counterattack, but once used, the recoil was so severe that it was impossible to fight properly for a few days.
Obviously, there will also be enemies who aim for the loopholes revealed by that.
Quang! Quang! Aww!
So, Shion was planning to test it against the demons in front of him.
Will he be able to face high-level monsters without using a lunar eclipse?
In the chronicle, Creon was strong enough to compete one-on-one with the early champions, so it should be enough for him.
at that time,
– Whoa!
Kreon, who was being pushed away without the initiative by Shion, shot out the saw-bladed bones that were set up as densely as a hedgehog in all directions with a shout like a roar.
quagga gaga!
As a result, there is a gap that is created for a very short time.
The demon, who used the gap to smash all the remaining power with one hand, threw that hand towards Zion.
Good luck!
Kreon’s arms were instantly transformed into a giant saw-blade column and fired.
He felt it instinctively.
That if you don’t take the initiative to yourself this time, you will die.
So the current blow was even desperate.
quagga gaga!
A saw bladed column that stretches out toward Zion, tearing apart everything that exists around it.
“… … .”
Shion, who watched the attack approaching him with cold eyes, slightly twisted the hand that was holding Iklaxia.
hey hey!
With him, the black star, which had been condensed at the tip of the extinction lightsaber, began to rotate at a frightening speed.
Zion knew.
Considering only the output of absolute power, he who did not use a lunar eclipse was lower than that demon.
then… … .
‘ The only choice is to pierce it with one point.’
In the meantime, Creon’s saw blade column approached right in front of him, tearing even the atmosphere and voicing a horrifying scream.
At the moment when the rotation of the Heukseongha reached its peak with him,
At last, the sword of Zion was drawn out.
Black Island Application Step 3.
Cheonam.
Like navigating a deep current.
Sion’s sword that advances slowly.
It seemed too weak compared to the huge and vicious Kreon’s strike.
However.
The moment the tip of Zion’s sword and the demon’s attack touch each other,
The saw blade posts created by Creon began to crumble without even leaving a shape.
