chapter 41
41. Is it Gauriel?
“Don’t back down!”
“I will make the Holy Knights fear resound even to hell!”
“Make it so that I can never ignore Heukcheol again!”
One word I showed at the vanguard became a trigger to dispel everyone’s fear.
The inaction of the united knights who forgot their fear was far greater than I could have imagined.
Even though the numbers aren’t that many.
Their momentum was passed on to me, who stood at the forefront.
Kwagwa River!
As the vanguard, I jumped into the middle of the Skeleton Legion with Black Thunder at the forefront.
Damn it! Damn it!
“Keeek!”
“Kagagagak!”
The black lightning that raged in all directions turned the skeleton back into ashes in an instant.
“Lord Rohan made a way! Break through!”
“Lord Rohan, make it clear to them that you are not alone!”
The voices of Heretic Inquisitor Zephron and Knight Commander Vincent pursued me from behind.
and.
Awesome! Awesome!
There was Diaz, who had already followed quietly right behind me.
‘This…the growth rate is too fast?…’
Normally, I would have lost my temper and ran amok among the demons.
After a virtual sparring with Romain.
I feel that I have grown even more, and I am able to control my emotions.
That’s why I finally saw the side of Diaz that I had been missing.
However, it seemed that her skills had already caught up to the brink of overtaking me.
‘The talent is crazy.’
How many unique skills did I have now?
And there are also items.
Catch up with it so fast with nothing?
‘If I do this, I might end up becoming a knight worse than my lieutenant.’
that was not to be said.

Just imagining it is too embarrassing.
‘The Great Invasion is also the Great Invasion… I have to grow up quickly!’
Once I destroyed this place and bought some time until the Great Invasion, I suddenly felt the need to grow further.
‘It makes my heart rush in many ways…!’
Chaaagh!
Cut a long horizontally drawn space.
At that, the skeletons’ vertebrae were neatly cut.
Patter.
Perhaps Diaz’s growth was more terrifying than the Great Invasion.
* * *
The Kwaguagaga River……
To the sound of thunder that echoed through his entire rarity.
Horikedon, the owner of this space, flashed empty eyes.
Red light flickered from the eyes of the fleshless skull.
“It’s noisy.”
A hoarse voice came out of his mouth.
He flapped his robes and moved in the direction of the sound.
And let’s wave our arms once.
Squeak.
A Wraith Lord appeared.
Horikedon gave an order to the ghost lord.
“Find out what’s going on and come.”
“Shiyiyi…!”
The specter turns around and disappears.
Meanwhile, the roar continued.
the floor rumbles
The air shook.
Koo Goo Goo! . . .
Horikedon did not hide his discomfort.
“How dare you set foot here. In the end, you will become one of those many skeletons.”
He turned his gaze back to his masterpiece.
“Keeek……”
“Grrrrr!”
“Save…”
A new specter with 666 souls mixed together.
Three heads attached to one body.
The torso looked patchy.
At the sight of the creatures created by God entangled according to one’s taste.
Horikedon let out a satisfied laugh.
“Cluck cluck. Ghost. Your god has abandoned you. I am the only god of ghosts… Support me and praise me!”
The specter, patched together piece by piece, only let out a noise of pain.
“aaagh!”
“Kong! Kwang!”
“I don’t want this world any more… Kill me!…”
But that cry of pain, to Horikedon, sounded like the best music in the world.
The time when I savored and felt the best pleasure in the world.
Suddenly, a cold sensation passed by.
“……!”
The ghost lord he sent had disappeared.
Horikedon turned his head in an unexpected situation.
“What the hell…what is going on? What the hell is going on? Someone has set foot in my sanctuary, so the ghost lord is so vain… Could it be, Gauriel?… .”
In an instant, the image of that monstrous angel appeared in his mind.
An ominous sensation swept through his bones.
* * *
“It’s a ghost lord!”
A call from somewhere.
I immediately looked away.
In fact, the battles he had fought against the skeletons so far were just warming up.
In fact, none of the members of the United Knights were injured.
But from now on it will be a little different.
The true strength of Horikedon’s legion was those guys.
‘The ghost lord and the ghost army…’
They were the real fear of Horikedon.
“Shaaa!”
“Sssssss…!”
The specters rushing into the state of the soul.
Physical attacks generally did not work on them.
Still, the attack was fatal.
“I’m flying!”
“Harm!”
The attack of the specter shooting through the air was simple yet terrifying.
It flew in like a headbutt.
Shuung!
It pierces through the body of the living.
Since the specter is a spiritual body, it did not leave a hole in the body just because it passed.
However.
dump.
“I-I can’t do this…!”
“Dead… Huh?”
That simple rush could have lightly extinguished a life.
They were the ones who had been pushing hard so far.
To the first death that occurred in an instant.
As a result, the spirit of the entire Knights Union cooled down.
‘Isn’t this a bad atmosphere?…’
I raised my voice and gave them a hint.
“Prepared things! Take them all out now!”
The knights of the United Knights immediately came to their senses and unfolded the countermeasures I had spoken about in advance.
“Ugh, silver powder bullets! Explode the silver powder bullets!”
“Damn it! Why can’t this fall out? Crazy!”
“Throw the ones you took out first! Quickly! They’re flying again!”
The specters who achieved success once seemed to chuckle, then fired at the knights again.
Even this time the ghosts were flying all at once!
My eyes moved quickly.
‘You fools! It’s already late……!’
I swept the nearby skeletons, but new ones were running towards me.
If you block the skeletons, the knights will suffer.
If I don’t block the skeleton, I’ll get hit.
at that time.
Diaz quickly started covering me.
“Rohan-sama! I will stop you! Support…!”
His fighting sense was also excellent.
I replied with a nod of my head.
Before we knew it, a bond that could be perfectly communicated with just this amount of words was welling up between us.
I completely have my back on Diaz.
Shaaa!
Summons a brilliant golden spear.
The light filled this basement.
“Card Deuk!”
“Kieek! Kigguggug…!”
The light was so strong that the skeletons hesitated and retreated.
A few of them approached through the light.
“Where! No way!”
Awesome!
I couldn’t get past Diaz’s wall.
I raised the strength of my left arm and threw a golden spear at the group of ghosts flying towards the knights.
Thanks to the clumsiness of the knights.
Rather, the ghosts were united, and the perfect angle to annihilate them in one blow was completed.
‘If they flock like that…it’s a dog’s gain!’
Whoops!
“Kieek?”
“Shaaa!”
blah blah blah!
and.
There was no one.
* * *
A golden spear that annihilated the ghost army in an instant.
Its power was such that even I was dumbfounded.
‘Eh, this was this much?…’
Was there a skill that could even annihilate the specter-type undead with a single blow?
I shook my head inwardly.
‘There was absolutely no such thing… The specter-type undead were at the top level in terms of being difficult to deal with, even in the original work.’
Of course, in the original game, it wasn’t enough to kill the player in one blow.
Even so, it inflicted fatal damage, and there was still no way to counterattack.
So, the conclusions of most users are…
‘How to avoid getting hit.’
I remember that only such a strategy came up day and night.
I, too, avoided the undead specters whenever I didn’t have to fight them.
By the way……
‘This is almost…a scam?’
With this level of power.
Undead specters made of real souls would not be my opponents in the future.
It was not a level to talk about compatibility, but it could be said that it was just enough to overpower.
That moment.
I felt a sudden chill run down my spine.
‘Well?’
The door that the skeletons were guarding ironically opened by itself.
It was like a scene from a horror movie.
What a profit…!
Through the gap in the open door, a darker-than-dark interior was glimpsed.
Spirits come out screaming.
“Kyaahhhh!”
next.
flash!
Bloody red eyes revealed its majesty.
Then, a voice containing death itself came out.
“Mortals who set foot in the lich’s lair. I showed my mercy, giving them a chance to die in peace… But in the end, they inflict their own pain!”
In the shouts carried in the last voice.
A life-filled storm hit us.
“Keugh!”
“What, what kind of energy do you have?”
“It’s hard to breathe…”
Even the wind seemed to gnaw away life.
I knew why.
‘It’s a debuff.’
Spirit-type wide-area debuff magic, Lich’s Song.
Breaks opponent’s morale and lowers all stats for a certain period of time.
I can see it in the eyes of people I know.
It was quite a lethal magic.
It was like a simple wind, but that itself was already a magic attack.
But it didn’t work for me.
‘If you don’t know, you’ll get hit, but if you know, you can respond.’
The moment the debuff took effect, I immediately cast the debuff counter using mana burning.
Unfortunately, however, due to the nature of mana burning, all mana was consumed, so the second debuff could not be prevented.
That’s why I decided that a quick decision was the answer.
If there’s one thing you’re lucky about…
The golden spear had nothing to do with mana.
Shaaa!
Once again, a brilliant golden spear was held in my hand.
He used his left arm to clasp it and fired a powerful javelin.
aaang!
With a piercing sound that rips through the air.
A straight line of golden light was drawn in the air.
The golden spear melts away all evil in its path.
A path like the miracle of Moses was laid before me.
And at the end of the road, Horikedon, who narrowly avoided the golden spear, gnashed his teeth.
“……!”
His life-threatening eyes flashed.
His terrifying eyes and mine were intertwined in midair.
