A few minutes before the Amcheongdae started the operation.
Morgan was barely holding on to a thread of consciousness.
After being beaten by Bernant, the initiative of the body was taken away.
It wouldn’t be strange to lose consciousness right away, but it was a situation that I managed to hold on to.
“You really are a tough guy.”
In this situation, he said as if he was a little fed up.
Those were the words of someone possessing Morgan and manipulating its body.
Unexpectedly, I was suffering from a bit of a headache in a situation where I was not completely dominated.
“Others took it without difficulty, after all.”
Possessing Morgan, he was one of the archbishops of the Church of Resurrection, Tordin.
He was originally a bishop, but he was one of those whose position rose when the Hoesang Church was destroyed.
‘… … Or is it that Catuman’s power is not ripe yet?’
The mind control Thordane used was the ability of the artifact used by the former archbishop, Catuman.
Thordane was found to be the next suitable person and succeeded to him.
Although this wasn’t an item imbued with the power of the evil god Hubris.
Even so, it was an artifact with a fairly heterogeneous and dangerous ability.
It was thanks to this that he was able to become an archbishop, lacking both performance and strength.
thump thump!
In the meantime, there was a sudden knock on the door.
At this, Thordain raised his voice in annoyance.
“what’s the matter?”
“Archbishop, this is an intruder.”
“intruder? Are they Kingdom bastards?”
“It seems so.”
“How many are there?”
“There are four of them, but they are all 7-star strong.”
“That should be enough to sort things out.”
The members of the Resurrection Church nodded in affirmation.
“Gather your forces, kill the intruders, and capture one alive. Hurry up and prepare to withdraw.”
“All right.”
After hearing Thordane’s instructions, the follower bowed his head and went outside.
‘Tsk, originally, I wouldn’t back down like this… … .’
This is because the control of Morgan, the main body of this body, is not perfect.
Because the knowledge of the possessed body has not been transmitted.
However, other than that, there was nothing that took me.
Rejection occurred only when domination was attempted on a person.
‘Because of this, the Royal Army’s interception also failed.’
The original purpose was to completely dominate Morgan’s body.
Then, knowing the knowledge of the first prince, I was able to naturally destroy the kingdom from the inside out.
Since this doesn’t happen very often, I changed the purpose to something that draws attention.
If you disperse the kingdom’s forces, the headquarters of the church in the north will also be easier to move.
I was thinking of doing a lot of damage to the kingdom as well.
It failed because it did not fully dominate.
‘I was hoping that Bernant would be of great help this time too… … It’s a pity.’
Not to mention securing 1 prince.
It was really helpful to let them know in advance that the kingdom had noticed one of the Resurrection Church’s abodes.
There were things I shouldn’t have lost, and thanks to that, I was able to safely hide them.
As a result, it’s a bit unfortunate that we collided with the kingdom earlier than planned… … .
I decided to put the meaning in that I got out of a situation that could have reached the worst.
‘Even so, the 1st prince won’t be able to endure it.’
It was felt through his body that he had reached his limit.
It’s going to be a long wait, maybe a few hours.
‘Now that the situation is like this, it’s impossible to infiltrate with this… … .’
Reading all of Morgan’s memories would be of great help.
‘This is the first time I’ve had such a hard time using this power. He must have been born with a strong soul.’
Even with this power, there were risks.
If the power is released in the middle, the memories of the possessed person will flow to the other person.
To be honest, it was a pointless risk.
There has never been a case where the possession was released midway through.
‘Even if my memory fades away, it’s meaningless since the target dies soon.’
smart.
Meanwhile, the knocking sound was heard again.
What came after that was a follower wearing a white mask.
He spoke in a calm voice.
“Since preparations for evacuation are complete, I will guide you to the evacuation route.”
“What happened to the intruder?”
“I haven’t dealt with it yet, but it’s only a matter of time.”
“It takes a lot longer than I thought.”
jerk, jerk.
Thordane followed in the lead of the follower.
I was not aware of my surroundings because of the sense of heterogeneity in my body.
Seeing Thordane like that, Shindou asked cautiously.
“Since there are intruders, how about using the secret passage?”
“A secret passage?”
“Yes, since it is related to the first prince, there may be more intruders.”
“… … Hmm, that makes sense.”
“Which one should I use?”
“The only place is underground in the outlying forest, are there other options?”
“Excuse me.”
At that moment, Thordain felt a sense of incongruity in the conversation.
Why do you even ask?
‘… … And Bonnie, why did you come alone?’
Other than that, I found something strange.
The black robe the believer was wearing was stained with blood.
I was not aware of it because I was only paying attention to the state of control of the body.
“Did an intruder come?”
“Yes, but fortunately we succeeded in repelling them.”
“… … Where are the other two?”
“We sent reinforcements because we didn’t have enough power.”
“You, take off your mask.”
In response, I gently put my hand on the white mask.
Quaang!
It caused an invisible explosion towards Thordain.
Although he blocked it, his face was strongly contorted.
“Surprisingly, acting as a fanatic isn’t difficult.”
“… … 2 Princes!?”
Morgan who saw my bare face… … No, Thordane’s face filled with astonishment.
I noticed that I didn’t know why I was here.
Do-do-do-do-do!
Without giving me a chance, I activated my magic one after another.
After creating a lot of invisible magic and shooting it quickly, he also created and fired fireworks.
Quaang!
It was easily offset by the raging fire.
“You look pretty rushed. You can feel the desire to save your brother.”
“If you know, why don’t you suffer a little?”
“ha ha ha! You don’t seem to know that there is no way to save the first prince.”
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
Thordane created a spark as if nothing had happened.
Because the body belonged to Morgan, he did not escape from the lower 6-star ranks.
I figured out his level with the previous workshop.
‘It’s stronger than Morgan.’
Even if his original level was not good, it seemed to be a 6-star intermediate level.
Having seen through an attack that would have taken several exchanges to destroy if it had been Morgan, at once.
Magical power management and combat methods were out of the 6-star lower level.
‘I’m weak for an archbishop, but… … This is a bad situation.’
Even so, his body belonged to Morgan.
It was just manipulation, so if you engage in close combat, loopholes will be revealed.
On the contrary, the part that is more immature than Morgan himself will be revealed.
The problem was, I couldn’t generate enough power to push it there.
‘Even if the power of the Celestial Spirit is reduced a little, the telekinesis should be hidden as much as possible.’
There were two reasons.
One had to use telekinesis to break Morgan’s rule.
It was similar to solving the magic formula of the maxim engraved on their bodies.
Noticing this in advance could have hindered the attempt.
the other one… … .
[There is no memory of being attached to a human named Thordane, so you don’t have to worry too much.]
‘… … Is that right?’
I’m not bragging about it, but I was really famous among the Resurrectionists.
It is called the hound of the Ronberg family, and not only has it killed many of them.
I broke the motto and drove them into a corner.
That’s why it was better not to use telekinesis unless it was an opponent that could be killed on the spot.
One of the things they are looking for, the Heavenly Spirit, was also better left undetected.
‘This guy’s body will be somewhere else, so I can’t even kill him.’
The troublesome aspect of that artifact was that the body didn’t have to be in the immediate vicinity.
Even if you kill him, he just returns to his original body.
The original plan was to incapacitate this guy, and I had to use telekinesis to release it.
Things got this way, so I had no choice but to do it alone.
Kwaaang!
A flame raged that seemed to shatter those thoughts.
It scattered thick flames all over the place.
Surprisingly, he didn’t actively attack me.
I could see the ulterior motive to buy as much time as possible by keeping a distance.
‘It’s cool.’
Rather than wasting time waiting for the support of the Resurrection Church.
I’m doing that because I know that my goal is to recapture Morgan.
“You’re quite relaxed, Thordane.”
“I have no reason to rush. Aren’t you in a hurry, the second prince?”
“Looks like you can handle it with the power inside.”
“ha ha ha-! What are you going to do with just four people? Seven stars is not a very high level, kid.”
“I came to look after the first prince of the kingdom. Do you really think that is the end?”
The man’s expression darkened slightly.
Without missing this, I continued.
“The first four people who came in were bait. If you think you’ve lured it in enough, the hidden body will come out.”
“main body?”
“It means that an 8-star unmanned person is waiting.”
Thordain’s eyes narrowed.
I said this because it was easier to counterattack when he actively came out, not wasting time.
Thordane replied with a smile.
“Yes, even on the inferior Sigvarda Continent, there must be 8 stars. So what are you saying?”
It didn’t seem like there was anything particularly sharp.
When I first heard about it, I could see a little embarrassed expression.
“If what you say is true, I might be beaten. But it won’t be easy.”
He was in no hurry, as if he saw through my intentions.
‘I’m sure it’s because of the rolled jjambab, so it doesn’t come over easily.’
Pod!
I finished my worries and kicked the ground.

Long-distance battles cannot be rushed.
‘I have to cause him to make mistakes.’
I had to induce the activation of many spells at close range.
Only then can a gap be created using the sense of separation from the possessed body.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
After narrowing the distance, he radiated darkness.
It was to weaken the flames around him.
Thordane was not taken aback by this.
‘One of the two. Either you heard my information, or you read some of Morgan’s memories.’
Either way was a possibility.
After the possession of the possessed target was almost over, I was able to read some of their memories.
Kwagwagwagwa!
As if to show off, darkness covered his magic.
But it was seldom eroded.
This was because he was responding by adjusting the magic that Tordain had invoked.
‘I expected this much.’
Do-do-do-do-do-do!
At the same time, an invisible bullet was fired.
Bullets, awls, thorns, pressure.
Various attacks were triggered in succession at close range.
I poured the maximum amount I could, at top speed.
He blocked even this.
It was possible because he had no intention of attacking, but it was definitely felt that he was at a lower level than 6 stars.
Wow!
In that gap, he cast mental magic.
It was an attack with maximum confusion at close range.
Parching-!
Even that was offset by powerful magic.
I blocked it before I even reached it, and this was also possible because I knew it in advance.
“It’s not a 5-star intermediate skill. I can kind of understand why this guy had such an inferiority complex to you… … !?”
A look of bewilderment passed over Thordain’s face.
It’s because I felt uncomfortable as if my body was bound.
This was the result of the telekinetic power that killed the presence as much as possible.
‘I had no choice but to use it to break through his defense.’
However, it was possible to hide the manifestation of magic and spells as much as possible so that it would not be discovered yet.
Although the power inevitably decreases.
It was possible to attack enough to create gaps if time was spent.
Besides, since he hadn’t completely dominated Morgann yet, he would mistake it for a physical repulsion.
Wow!
In the gap, the darkness covered him.
tu tu tu tu!
Invisible magic was activated in succession.
But he resisted the darkness and blocked all of my attacks.
‘Still, it’s a success.’
It’s a pity that there are no effective hits, but I succeeded in engulfing him in the darkness.
Since I made it consume my mana, if I create this situation a few more times, I can break its dominion.
Kwaaang!
At that moment, an explosion of flame occurred.
It was an attack on me nearby.
Thanks to pre-detection, I managed to evade it.
This meant that some of the guy’s composure had disappeared, so it was a positive sign.
“Finally switching to the offensive… … ?”
I stopped talking.
It’s because he was trembling.
Currently, I couldn’t help but wonder because I hadn’t done anything to him.
“this guy… … ! Quietly crouch… … .”
Squeeze-like speech.
Those weren’t words for me.
‘if… … Is Morgan’s consciousness pushing him away?’
At this, I held my breath.
I cautiously approached Thordane, who was trembling.
