[Cruise! Are you okay!?]
I recognized that I had returned to reality thanks to Skadi’s urgent voice.
‘Yeah, I just got back.’
[What happened?]
‘I was dragged with my whole soul by the spirit of heaven and came to meet Silver Ted.’
[…] … what?]
‘I wondered what would happen at one time, but since I came back after taking a lot of power, it shouldn’t be a problem.’
Immediately after returning, enjoying the power overflowing in the body.
I looked around.
There, he saw Alan wrapped around Hones as if to protect him.
“Fortunately, he’s not dead yet.”
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
The power of chaos melted into gray-white magic was raising my level in real time.
From 5 to 6 stars, from low to intermediate, from intermediate to high.
This alone was a huge jump.
‘I still have strength.’
Considering that he only had enough strength to become a 6-star lower class before he was taken to the spirit world.
It seems that I took away a lot of power from Silverted.
I didn’t bring everything he had… … .
‘I can’t accept more than this.’
There was a limit to the amount my body could accept at one time.
If you forcibly absorb this, it may cause aftereffects like Sylvetted.
But I was thinking that it would be a pity to just fly it.
Alan and Hones came into my field of vision.
“Oh yeah. You can share it.”
percussion.
I leaped lightly and stood in front of the two.
Then, naturally, he turned his back on the bishops and became defenseless.
Alan was taken aback by this.
“Lowering! I have an enemy right in front of me… … .”
“It’s okay, they are no longer my opponents.”
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
The remaining strength was distributed to Alan and Hones.
The sudden situation made both of them look surprised.
As if he understood something, he opened his mouth.
“… … Is this the power you accepted?”
“okay. It’s also where the regenerative church guys tried to use it. It’s better for us to use something that can’t be undone anyway.”
Then he looked around again.
He would have needed the escort’s help to get this far.
“… … I split it in half to protect my brother.”
“So, are Hela and the rest of them blocking the others?”
“Yes, and the escorts that were moving with us gave their lives to clear the way.”
“… … is it.”
I gave strength to the two and looked back.
There were three bishops standing there.
They seemed to be roughly 6-star low to intermediate.
“Thank you for not attacking me under these circumstances.”
“… … .”
The bishops’ expressions twisted at the blatant sarcasm.
It meant that even though there were plenty of opportunities to attack, I was too scared to do it… … .
But the bishops did not object.
‘What is it? This… … .’
I understood that he was stealing the power they extracted from their consciousness and using it.
So it was understandable that the realm had risen.
However, they did not understand the danger their instincts indicated.
Most of the bishops of the Resurrection Church have experienced numerous battles.
The instinct that came from that experience was telling me that he couldn’t win.
‘… … The realm is definitely intimidating. But isn’t that the one who was only 5 stars before?’
Even if that wasn’t the case, with these three, I was confident that I wouldn’t be easily beaten by a 6-star wizard.
Even if I couldn’t beat my opponent, I had the confidence to tie my feet.
I was feeling more danger now.
“My arm is fine, but the thigh wound is deep.”
As if ignoring their frightened mood, I turned around and took out a bandage from my chest.
Then he closed Alan’s wound and stopped the bleeding.
This signaled a flare for the bishops.
“You’re too cocky, 2nd Prince!”
Geeying!
Spells appeared everywhere.
A coordinated attack of all forces.
It seemed like they couldn’t overcome their anger, but in fact, it was a very cold-blooded offensive.
I thought that if it was now that the opponent was showing a defenseless appearance, there was no choice but to be defeated… … .
Kwaaang-!
As soon as the magic was activated, it exploded.
Right after it manifested, it was offset by a further attack.
“… … !”
“What… … !?”
As a result, the bishops had no choice but to doubt their senses.
Because I didn’t feel anything until this happened.
Besides, how can you break the magic that contains the power of the three so easily?
This was an act that went beyond the level of a normal 6-star advanced.
‘This will kill us if you set your mind to it… … .’
Kwajik!
What came after a brief surprise was a counterattack.
As soon as the magic was destroyed, an invisible awl pierced their chests.
The attack killed all the bishops.
“Did you see it? Alan. Attacking with all your might is only done when you have an assistant. Otherwise, it’s easy to get hit like this.”
“… … Yes, lower.”
It was there to induce them to move away.
I had to conserve my strength as much as I could to deal with those on the other side.
“… … It’s a strange feeling, to not do anything, but to keep climbing.”
“The handing over of power is over. Now you will have to sort it out yourself.”
“Are you going to join us, brother?”
“It should be. But you guys don’t join.”
At my firm command, the two of them blinked in doubt.
It must have been an action since it would be of great help in this situation where the realm had risen.
“If you play a real battle while the level has risen rapidly, bad habits will remain.”
“… … Isn’t your older brother fighting right away?”
“It’s okay because I’m originally special.”
“… … .”
“You’ll have to get used to this, poor Hones.”
I left behind Alan’s words that seemed to make me understand something, and started running.
That’s how we arrived at the place where the bishops and escorts under Thordane’s command were confronting each other.
Allies who saw me said with their eyes wide open.
“Lowering! Are you feeling well?”
“Yes, I lived thanks to the time you bought me.”
The situation was not good.
Although Hela is still holding out against Havchen at a distance.
Other than that, some of the escorts had already been hit, and even the remaining ones seemed to be nearing their limits.
If I had woken up later, not only these people, but also Hella would have suffered.
“I don’t understand, 2nd Prince.”
Thordane continued without hiding a strange smile.
“I came to my senses, but why did I come here? Could it be that you came here believing that your level has risen a bit?”
“I don’t know why you bother asking.”
“ha ha ha! Really, you don’t know the subject. 1 The prince didn’t think that way for nothing.”
“It seems you haven’t noticed yet why I can be here.”
“What do you mean?”
“The three bishops you sent died at my hands.”
Thordain’s eyes narrowed.
I felt I hadn’t been aware of it because I was dealing with the escorts.
Only then did he begin to assess my realm in detail.
“… … 6-star high?”
“Yeah, I’m just like you.”
“… … ha ha ha!”
He couldn’t help but laugh as if it was funny.
I was a little surprised, but it was clear that that was all.
“Wouldn’t you be able to match me with the power you just acquired? How stupid you are!”
Dig!
The bishops moved at Tordain’s beckoning.
The escorts who were watching the situation tried to rush out.
“All escorts stand by!”
Everyone stopped moving at Hones’ instructions that followed.
I said it because I knew that if I went out for nothing, I could be beaten, and that I didn’t need anyone’s help right now.
Chara la la la rock!
As if aiming a gun, spells were manifested in all directions.
The number and scale were not at a level that even the country could easily pass over.
“If we fight head-on, that is.”
Quaaa!
Darkness blew out like a dragon spewing out its breath.
In an instant, the darkness enveloped not only the surrounding spells, but also the bishops.
I couldn’t help but be greatly agitated by this.
I didn’t even dream of emitting darkness at this scale and speed.
“Kuu, everyone, don’t panic and attack… … !?”
The bishop, who was in the lead and gave instructions, was at a loss for words for a moment.
It was because the magic formula itself created by everyone had corroded and disappeared.
Even if those who manifested magic were unable to do so, they were 6 stars.
I’m not even talking about it, so how can you disappear so quickly?
‘No, is this possible in the first place… … ?’
Tsutsutsutsutsu –
In the darkness that covered all sides, a fine powder coalesced and floated up.
It took shape, its wriggling creating a visceral foreboding.
Chara la la la rock!
The created creature spewed out black blades in all directions.
It was an attack as if it was responding to a large-scale magic created by the enemies.
The small blade slaughtered the bishops without hesitation.
It was a completely different attack from the darkness, which had never taken shape and inflicted no direct damage.
“Keugh… … ! Everyone is on the defensive… … .”
Kwajik!
The creature shot like a laser tore off the arm of the bishop who was giving instructions in an instant.
Encroached into the darkness, the enemies could not come to their senses from the attack that continued in a disorderly manner.
[Now you’re using my power in a plausible way.]
‘Isn’t this more than what I wrote in my previous life?’
[I think that’s what I heard… … .]
The current output of darkness was a little stronger than what I had in my previous life.
It was because of the heavenly spirit that affects the power of spirits.
Thanks to that, he was able to unilaterally drive the 6-star wizards.
‘Comprehensively, it does not reach the level of the previous life… … The difference isn’t big.’
So it was a situation where I couldn’t be pushed.
The disadvantages caused by this were also felt by the bishops.
“Everyone step back at once!”
Rather than pushing through numbers, I decided that we should tie our feet together and fight a time-consuming defensive battle.
That’s why I tried to step back and improve my posture.
“… … !”
“What, what is this!?”
“I can’t move… … .”
Quaaang-!
At some point, the invisible pressure that bound the enemies exploded.
After disturbing the enemies with the power of a 7-star spirit.
It was to deal with the enemies with invisible magic specializing in stealth.
Thordane, who was watching this, hardened his expression and shouted.
“Two princes—!”
Quaaa!
A fierce breath of fire gushed out.
Fireballs mixed with it poured down like meteorites.
It was an attack to save the bishops trapped in limbs.
With that level of power, I would have no choice but to respond.
“Certainly, of the two, you are the strongest, Archbishop Thordane.”
woo woo woo-
I read his intentions, so I decided to respond in the same way.
It crystallized the materialized darkness, released it everywhere, and fired it.
Kwagwagwagwagwang-!
The pouring flames crushed the darkness.
It was a 7-star level output, but it was pushed back because the physical power of darkness was weaker than normal attribute magic.
In response, Thordane was elated and pushed even further.
“… … !”
They crinkled their foreheads in a situation where each other’s magic was offset.
This is because darkness clings to the flame and lowers its power.
To solve this, I just had to cancel the activated magic and use it again… … .
‘If that happens, the loss of magic power will be great… … !’
This meant that head-to-head confrontation itself was at a disadvantage, as it would soon be pushed back in a war of attrition.
Thordane made a quick decision.
“Everyone step down first! Defensive battle causes him to consume his mana… … ?”
The moment you stop attacking and start moving.
Thordane felt a strange feeling behind his back.
Eventually, realizing that it was invisible magic, he hurriedly wrapped himself in magic.
Kwakwagwagwang!
A fierce, unseen explosion followed.
However, Thordain, who noticed this in advance, was able to escape safely.
“It’s quite the way, Archbishop Thordane.”
My compliment was sincere.
It is very difficult to be aware of an invisible attack while simultaneously paying attention to the powerful and dense darkness.
Besides, if you are encroached on, your senses become dull.
He deserved praise for noticing this and responding even in such a situation.
“… … you guy.”
However, Thordane gnashed his teeth as if he was angry at this situation itself.
It was the same with other bishops.
Their faces were full of astonishment as they barely escaped my attack.
It was only natural that the five bishops were reduced to two in an instant.
“Is this 3:1?”
At my calm voice, which seemed to inform me of the result, Thordane bit his lip and refined his mana.
In that posture, I could see his will to switch to defense and pass the time.
Kwajik-!
One of the bishops, unable to react to the sudden assault, spurted blood from the shoulder blades.
“What, what!?”
“this guy-!”
I hurriedly counterattacked, but the rabbit, who attacked the bishop from a blind spot, slowly escaped and approached me.
“Cheongak!”
“Kywu, kkyu!”
He cried as if he was worried.
I chased after the riot police, but it was a situation where I went deep, perhaps because I was caught up in the movement of the regeneration church.
Because of that, in the situation where time was delayed, I felt that my consciousness had disappeared, so I came back in a hurry.
“Poetry, divine beast… … ?”
The voice of Thordain, who could not hide his bewildered expression, was heard.
So I chewed over his words to understand what he meant.
“Prince 2, how are you dealing with divine beasts!?”
… … What is Shinsu?
