145 – Unknown Object (7)
Ornette’s body her her her, where magical power was concentrated, began to turn from blue to white.
Flashes and sparks flashed in his eyes her her hers, and his her hair her her she became a silver flame.
Ornette’s feet her rose from the ground thanks to the unimaginably powerful buoyancy created by magical power.
The paving stones on the roof of the guard post were cracked and the pebbles were trembling and pushed out.
The pressure of magical power pressed down on my body, and surprisingly, even Lucene felt a little overwhelmed and held on to the railing.
At this level, the object is clearly destroyed.
“Wow, this is really amazing.”
Lucene clicked his tongue, his hair her standing on end just like mine.
The object has not yet noticed this at all and is supporting the illusory army created by Isiste with purple lasers.
Very good.
Ornet slowly raised both his hands forward.
In the air in front of my outstretched palm, a very dark blue sphere that cannot be expressed in words was visible.
“Go, Leonard.”
The sphere became a beam of light and shot forward.
All of my vision temporarily turned white and I stumbled under the ridiculous pressure.
Lucene strongly grabbed my arm as I was about to fall.
As I stood close to the railing and squinted, I saw Ornette’s light beam flying towards the object at an incredible speed.
Indeed… Indeed…
The object suddenly turned this way and fired a purple ray straight ahead.
However, Ornette’s ray, whose trajectory was narrowly deviated, struck the exact center of the object as planned.
A blue explosion occurred and the object disappeared.
“What happened?”
The moment Lucene spoke, a purple light flashed through the explosion of magic power.
“What the hell!”
Lucene ran in front of Ornette and me and held out Thundermite.
The purple ray of light from the object hits Thundermite directly.
“Ugh!”
Lucene shouted with difficulty, spreading purple waves in all directions.
“Shoot quickly! The shield is gone!”
The object that appeared between the scattered explosions of magic was slightly different from before.
One of the arms stretched out on both sides fell off.
The defense shield has been pierced!
“Damn it! Thundermite is melting!”
Lucene shouted, clutching the Thundermite with both hands.
“Step back, Lucene!”
Lucene, who was retreating, jumped between the beams and stabbed Nightrend.
The pitch-black energy of Nightrend rose and formed a curtain, blocking the rays of light.
The energy of the purple ray was so strong that even though I was not hit directly, I felt tremendous pain as if my body was burning.
Come on, Nightrend!
Do it again!
“Ornette!”
“Wait just a moment!”
Meanwhile, Ornette began to gather magical power again.
“Oh ding! Do it quickly! You can’t last!”
Lucene shouted, supporting my back as I was back little by little.
At that time, an opaque magic shield suddenly unfolded in front of us.
“You were risking your fucking life for this!?”
Isiste, who jumped up to the rooftop of the guard post, cursed frantically as she poured her magical energy into the shield.
“Leonari bastard!
The magic shield shattered, and Isiste fell backwards in the aftermath.
“Oh ding!”
“Just a little more!”
“Ornette… !”
“Just a little… Just a little more… !”
I shouted as Lucene and I continued to be pushed away by the purple rays.
“Lucene! Take Ornette and get to the rear! I’ll stop you!”
“Don’t be crazy! We’re almost done!”
“Everybody get down!!”
Ornette’s second sniper hits the object directly.
The moment the object was hit by the light, the wave of energy transmitted to my body was cut off.
I quickly stood up holding on to the railing and looked ahead.
A completely destroyed object could be seen falling in the distance.
At the same time as the remains of the object collided with the ground, the sound of advance horns rang out here and there.
Rutger’s army, which had spread out with shouts, began to charge towards the Feran resistance.
“I finally got it done.”
Lucene turned her body and stretched out her arms, looking up at the sky and laughing helplessly.
“I’m crazy, I’m crazy.”
Isiste muttered and bowed to the railing.
“Ornette, are you okay?”
Ornette, who was sitting down, had a lot of sweat on her forehead.
His face is pale because he has consumed a huge amount of magical energy, and it looks like he is about to collapse at any moment.
“It’s okay…”
As he knelt down on one knee in front of Ornet and wiped the sweat from his forehead, Ornet smiled faintly.
“Thank you…”
“Hey, Leon. We’re in big trouble.”
Lucene raised her Thunder Mite and called to me.
It looked like half of Thundermite’s head had melted.
“What should I do with this?”
Lucene asked as she traced the melted part of the Thundermite.
“Whatever. I have to repair it.”
“Is there a way to repair it?”
“Yes.”
“Dwarf?”
“No. Dwarves can’t handle that.”
“Then?”
“I know a blacksmith. When I get back, let’s go there and fix it. Before that, let’s get some rest first.”
Chasing her companions, they went down to the post.
The Thormanite was shining brightly as if nothing had happened, and the fifteen wizards of the principality were all lying down from exhaustion.
“Thank you all for your hard work. Let’s return now.”
There was an uproar in the castle where the count returned.
As the object was destroyed, Rutger’s army and the principality’ volunteers completely crushed the Feran resistance.
It was a fight I was no match for in the first place.
“Director!!”
Celestine, whose hands and apron were covered in blood, ran to me and hugged me.
“I’m glad you’re safe!”
“You must be safe.”
Lucene laughed as she stroked Celestine’s head.
“Aren’t you worried about me and Ornette?”
“I did, but the manager worried more.”
From noble mtl dot com
Lucene and I laughed out loud at that honest remark.
“Hey, everyone, come here.”
Celestine displayed divine power throughout her body and embraced me, Ornette, and Lucene at the same time.
“Oh, I like it. Ugh, it’s too tight.”
Lucene spoke in a grumbling tone and patted Celestine’s buttocks.
“Ornette. How are you feeling now?”
“It’s gotten a lot better.”
It seems that his strength has returned to some extent as his complexity is much more red than at the guard post.
“Ornette, you have nothing more to do, so go back to the guild with Isiste. I’ll finish up and leave.”
“Ugh…”
When Ornette opened the portal, Isiste rushed in and argued.
“Hey, you bastard!”
“What.”
“Give me five months!”
“Okay.”
“Huh… ?”
When I answered easily, Isiste was embarrassed and asked back.
“You’re giving me away… ?”
“I told you so. You saved our lives, so you have to do that.”
“Well, really… ? Miss, then I should have called you more…”
He laughed and pushed Isiste’s back through the portal.

By the time the sun rose in the morning, the news of victory had arrived at the count’s castle, saying that the remnants of the Feran resistance had been wiped out and a declaration of unconditional surrender had been received.
In addition, there is good news that the leader of the resistance group has been arrested.
I immediately went to Count Rutger and requested a meeting with the so-called leader.
“Interview? Why?”
“We’re trying to find out where the object came from and how we were able to control it. Otherwise, we can’t guarantee that something like this won’t happen again.”
“That’s right. Then go talk to me.”
“Lucene. Follow me.”
I took Lucene down to the dungeon of the count’s castle.
The dungeon was already full of prisoners.
The guard guiding us said that they were all members of the Feran resistance group who had committed illegal acts.
“Kidnapping, rape, murder, robbery, looting. They are disgustingly persistent and vicious.”
The guard who continued down the dark hallway opened the door to the innermost prison.
Inside the prison, there was a man sitting in chains.
The owner of a small physique and clear eyes.
I thought he was a gangly bandit with a thick beard, but this was surprising.
If he wasn’t in prison and looked like that from the outside, he would look like a college professor.
“Are you the leader of the Feran resistance?”
“That’s right.”
Your voice is clear too. What are you doing, you bastard?
“I have a question about objects.”
“Object?”
“A stone statue floating in the sky and shooting purple rays.”
“Ah, you mean that?”
The resistance leader smiled and shook his head.
“I don’t know anything about that.”
“Really? There was something dangerous floating above your head that you knew nothing about, but you attacked the county so boldly?”
“The attack was planned two years ago. That strange statue appeared by chance and had nothing to do with us.”
Lucene strides forward and strikes the man’s toe with a thunder mite.
“Quaa!!”
“I’m sorry. I’m so frustrated because I can’t get the answer I want.”
“Uuuuu… !”
I asked again the man who was suffering and drooling from his mouth.
“What is that statue?”
“Go, necromancer… !”
“Necromancer? “Do you mean necromancer?”
“That’s right! He suddenly came to our side… And gave us a secret weapon… And told us to destroy the count family with it! That’s the statue!”
“Hmm… I see. Do you happen to know what that necromancer looks like?”
I smiled when I heard him describe the appearance of the necromancer.
Well then.
She’s the only necromancer with enough power to move objects.
