Die, immortal
Leon was able to defeat the Death Lord once, but he could not be relieved yet.
Leon had only defeated one of the three Death Lords, and the other two were still fighting fiercely with Daniel and Olivia.
In addition, the Death Lord, which Leon had defeated, was sure to be resurrected soon.
In the meantime, I had to come up with a solution to this situation.
How can we kill the immortal beings who share a soul divided into 7 parts and resurrect each other?
‘It destroys the soul itself.’
It’s a concept I’ve never thought of before, but it won’t be impossible.
In fact, Leon created a spirit of order called Dice by combining the principles of necromancy and the artificial intelligence of the autonomous magic doll Automata.
And spirits are not immortals.
Parasitic with the spirits of the spirit magician, if the soul is not shared, the spirit will also die.
In other words, even souls treated with necromancy can die.
But how?
Leon quickly found the answer.
It is theoretically possible if the power of Silus, the demon god of shadow that controls darkness, causes destructive interference in the mental wavelength of the soul of the Death Lord.
The problem was that Leon was incapable of dealing with Silus’ powers.
Leon first opened the subspace pocket and took out an artifact he had made a long time ago.
noise canceller.
A trident-shaped horned cuff.
It was a kind of tuning fork that detects the spirit waves made from the horns obtained by subjugating the demon mage killer who used the power of the shadow demon, Silus.
If you use this, you will be able to clearly understand the shape of the soul possessed by the Death Lord.
In addition, he uses the power of nightmares absorbed from the horn of the demon possessed by Beatson to destroy the soul of the Death Lord.
‘Is it possible?’
It doesn’t matter if it’s impossible or not.
This is the only answer given to Leon now.
must do it.
Leon hurriedly threw himself back and returned to the pile of bones.
And the body of the Death Lord reconstituted from those bones.
By observing the vibration of the soul that occurs at the moment when the gnome is reborn with a noise canceller, Leon identified the form of the soul and induced self-destruction with the power of nightmares.
[Turn it off… uh…!]
It worked.
Although it did not kill the soul itself, the nerves that were engraved into the skeleton with necromancy to achieve the soul were incomplete.
It twisted and corrupted the soul of the Death Lord in the skeleton.
The newly resurrected Death Lord spreads on the floor and cannot properly control his body.
He couldn’t keep up his cognitive and thinking abilities, so he began to utter only bizarre sounds that had no proper meaning.
And soon the light of the soul, which drooped and shone deep in the orbit, was extinguished.
[[Unbelievable! I can’t do this…!]]
Daniel and Olivia, the two Death Lords who were in a fierce battle with them, also recognized it and screamed out a scream that would make the world resound.
However, Leon has come to the conclusion that this is not yet a way to completely kill the Death Lord.
‘This is a method that was possible at my age. The Imperial magic tower can neither recognize the form of the soul nor intervene in it to derive the death of the soul.’
If so, how could the Imperial magic tower be able to subdue the Death Lord in the history before Leon returned?
‘There will be a simpler and clearer answer.’
At that moment, Leon was able to find the body of the Death Lord rising from the pile of bones.
“how?”
Wasn’t the Deathlord’s soul sharing a soul divided into 7 parts?
Is it possible to be resurrected even though it has corrupted the form of the soul to the point of complete death?
Leon was able to recognize that there was an error in the situation he understood himself in the body of the Death Lord who was trying to resurrect again.
And a question that came to mind in an instant.
“Why was the Death Lord stationed in the dungeon?”
At first, of course, I thought that it was because the dungeon was a space where the Death Lord, the core of this operation, could safely protect itself by taking a geographical advantage.
But it wasn’t.
The Death Lord was a plural that was divided into seven clones, and assuming the ability to not die unless the seven clones are defeated at the same time, the more the Death Lords are scattered, the closer they are to immortality.
“To simply turn the corpse of a demon into an undead?”
No, if that was simply the purpose, it would have been enough if only one of the 7 Death Lords remained and continued the work.
However, there were three Death Lords living here.
Besides, why is it that so many Death Knights and Archrichs are created and rot in the dungeon without using them in battle?
“Is there something you want to protect?”
Ten thousand undead forces and three Death Lords.
This is the reason why they can’t leave their seats.
Leon raised his noise canceller again to stop the resurrecting Death Lord.
And keep thinking.
When the first three Deathlords appeared, they corrected the perception that they were ‘seven, not three’, as if they were sympathetic.
why?
That’s what I wanted to misunderstand.
The Death Lord wanted to imprint it as an existence that was close to impossible to kill, sharing 7 souls.
But what if the truth is different?
In fact, what if the Death Lord exists in a different form instead of sharing 7 souls?
“The body of the Death Lord.”
The 10,000 undead forces and the three Death Lords are only escort forces to protect the ‘body’ that forms the soul of the Death Lord.
In the past, in the history before the return, the Imperial magic tower succeeded in discovering it and succeeded in leading the Death Lord to complete death.
But even if such a thing exists, where in this wide dungeon can you find its body?
At that moment, Leon was frustrated by the desperate situation and was able to find the wizards he was afraid of.
Cindy, Veronica, and the Knights united to stop the undead forces from rushing into the temple, but it was only a matter of time.
One day, the group’s strength would run out and they would collapse from exhaustion.
At that moment, the words of the Death Lord flashed through my mind.
[[[Your despair is sweet. okay. Desperate even more.]]]
When I heard that, I thought it was just the Death Lord’s hobby was not good and moved on lightly, but why did it come to mind now?
‘faith.’
okay. it is faith
After Leon consumed the seeds of divinity and awakened his divinity, Andrea, the Pope of Saint Lane, the Holy Empire, taught Leon how to nurture the soul.
The gods build up karma and karma and manipulate their power, so do good deeds.
Then your soul will blossom and you will be able to wield more powerful powers for those who have faith in you.
But when Leon heard those words, he thought about it.
If the faith that originates from the believers in God and the spiritual power resonates with God in the form of soul matter and nurtures the karma, there must be a way to gather faith even if it is not good deeds.
Couldn’t the earnest heart to be saved by doing good deeds, not as a prayer of thanksgiving, but as a cruel and evil deed, can’t be faith?
The reason the Death Lord said that he was ‘seven, not three’, as if he were willing, was for the purpose of hiding his hidden reality, but in addition to that, it was also a great work to gain faith in the mechanism to activate his powers.
Giving Leon’s companions a sense of despair and gaining strength from it.
‘then······.’
The body of the Death Lord will be in the place where that feeling of despair resonates with the beliefs of evil karma.
Following the second turn, when Leon stopped the resurrection of the Death Lord, hope began to fill the eyes of the wizards.
At that moment, Leon canceled all magic and martial arts on his body.
And stagger and act.
“Ugh, I can’t stop the resurrection of the Death Lord any more.”
The higher the hill of hope, the deeper the despair of the wizards plunges into the valley.
And the deeper the despair, the more clearly Leon could feel the flow of faith.
It replaces the dragon’s horn as a noise canceller, and identifies the place where the faith of evil karma resonates.
‘Are you there?’
There are seven places where faith resonates.
It was the same number as the body of the Death Lord.
However, the location was located on the outskirts of the dungeon.
Black hexagonal pillars.
It became a medium for gathering faith, such as the image of a deity worshiped at the temple, and was reaping the sense of despair.
Leon, who entered the battle mode again and returned to the form of the Celestial Dragon, uses the power of nightmares to hypnotize himself, raising the level of martial arts.
Astrafe.
The magic, named after the weapon of the gods, is developed as a martial art.
Lightning dwells in the desired place, and it flies through the space as if it has a will of its own.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa——!
All the undead escorted around the pillar flew through space.
[[no–!]]
“No, that’s okay.”
Leon raised his palm once more, and Astrafe floated on top of it, without Leon needing to sharpen his mental powers.
The greatest strength of martial arts is that all combat abilities are completed in the unconscious process.
In line with Leon’s gesture of beckoning again, he smashed the second pillar.
Then, the joints of the Death Lord, who had been fighting with Daniel, were scattered and scattered on the floor.
The main body of the Death Lord is that pillar.
And those bone fragments that we thought were the main body were just magical dolls that shared their ego.
Would it be better to call it a self-moving magic doll that moves at the will of the puppeteer?
It is far from autonomous in that it moves according to the will of the magician, but if the target is the person who copied and pasted the soul, there would be no fuss.
The divine punishment fell from Leon’s fingertips once again.
3, 4, 5.
The pillars fell one after the other, and the Death Lord, who was facing Olivia, was cornered and attacked Leon.
However,
“Aren’t you ignoring me too much?”
A huge flame swirling around Olivia swept away the Death Road.
There were signs that the Death Lord, who had been defeated by Olivia, would be resurrected from the pile of bones, but when Leon threw it again, Astrafe smashed one pillar, and it was scattered.
“Then this is the last time.”
Die, immortal.
A dazzling flash of light struck the black pillar and shattered it.
The wizards, who were in despair at the sudden reversal of the situation, made bewildered faces.
I was terrified that the Death Lord would resurrect from the pile of bones at any moment, but no matter how much time passed, there was no sign that the Death Lord would rise again.
“Operational objectives have been achieved. You have completed the subjugation of the EX-grade monster, Death Lord.”
At Leon’s words, the wizards raised their eyes as if they couldn’t believe it, but they couldn’t take his word for it.
They couldn’t believe it, but it was their true intentions to want to believe that the Death Lord was dead.
“Let’s escape. Now that we don’t have to worry about the number of undead growing anymore, let’s leave the subjugation of the undead army that survived in the dungeon to the main force of the empire.”
To be honest, Leon was exhausted.
No matter how much the martial art is the action of magical power created by unconscious nerve activity, it unfolds as many as seven astrafes in a row.
With self-hypnosis using the power of nightmares, his mental power was tattered, and all his senses were dulled as if the nerves of his whole body were exhausted.
For now, I wanted to lie down on a soft bed and rest.
