“Kaaaa!!”
killed and killed
Although he was carrying his disciple, it was fixed with his mane, so it was not difficult to stand up for a moment and kill the fleeing enemy by cutting him down with his fingernails.
‘Are you okay?’
“I’m fine! Don’t worry, just run!!”
The disciple riding on the back is also fine.
Therefore, I jumped on all fours again to the place where I heard the screams and the sound of the sword.
hurry.
faster.
Whirring!!-
Will Andrew be safe?
Was Rauf well protected?
What was the number of enemies?
Was Andrew also the enemy’s target in the first place?
Time was too late in the flower garden.
I can’t guarantee what would have happened. He just pierced through the masked men and quickly ran through the forest.
I think they killed about ten more people.
I finally arrived at the battlefield… .
“Cr… .”
“What is this…? … .”
Among the corpses.
Rauf, whose armor was slightly damaged, stood still as if mesmerized.
There were about 15 corpses around, and judging by the scale and traces of the battle, it seemed like other people had run away.
In other words, Rauf won.
but.
“… I couldn’t protect it.”
A sword stuck in the ground.
A corpse held in two hands.
Andro, who looked miserable at first glance, was being held by Rauf.
Blood is still dripping to the floor.
My eyebrows naturally furrowed.
My stomach felt sour and stuffy.
“Ae, Andro?… .”
Ronica, who landed on the ground, trembled.
Looks confused.
He wouldn’t even have time to think about the fact that Rauf was the knight who saved him earlier. Because his best friend was seriously injured.
“ANDRO!!!!”
I ran straight to the driver.
Rauf carefully laid Andrew down, and Ronika held him there.
◎︎ Release handprinting.
I, who had returned to my human form, followed carefully.
The wound was very serious.
No, I’m not breathing anymore.
It seemed like only a few minutes had passed since I stopped breathing.
Blood was leaking from the head, which was broken as if it had been hit by a blunt object, and more than anything else… A deep sword wound was visible on his neck. Blood was flowing out like crazy.
pale skin.
A lot of blood was lost.
The cause of death was hemorrhage.
Soon, the body will decay and rot.
Although I am not a doctor, I have experienced many deaths, so I can understand how scared people were when they died.
Andrew died in fear but courageous resistance.
It must have been terrible, scary, and painful.
… That’s how he died.
Although I can stop bleeding and stop wounds with the clumsy recovery magic I learned, it cannot save lives that are already dead.
Andro is really dead.
“Andro!! Open your eyes!!… Andro!!!… … … Andro… … please… … … .”
… … … .
ah.
I can’t stand it.
The disciple cries.
I’m so disgusted that I want to vomit.
Not only was the dream-like time broken, but the person who helped me died. I was determined to put on a happy smile, but Ronica cried sadly and Andro became a silent corpse.
What happens if your identity is revealed safely?
Today has become a tragedy.
Our stage was drenched in blood and ended with the death of a colleague.
Are you going to hold an event?
You want to give me happy memories?
Why was I so complacent? It seems like the cord that kept me cool is about to break.
… So what can’t they do?
It can’t end like this.
Sze-
I placed two fingers on Andrew’s neck.
Cheap!… … .
“Ah… .”
The wound was burned with aura.
Ronika said, ‘Please!… .’ He looked at Andrew earnestly, as if asking him to save him.
Do they believe that I can be included?
Unfortunately, I don’t have that kind of power. Nevertheless, I took steps to do what I could.
Healing magic.
“ᚺᚢᚨᛒᚯᚲ, ᛃᚨᛋᛅᚾ, ᛋᛁᛒᚨᛋᚲᚢ ᛋᚢᛁᛋᚺᛅᛚ.”
Recovery, regeneration, the breath of the world tree.
Of course, this is of no use to a corpse.
Even if he was still alive, he couldn’t be saved. To recover from such a fatal wound, you would have to bring in a high priest from the temple.
Instead, because it was before rigor mortis set in, it was possible to remove and cleanse the wounds on the body. The wounds were healed so that they did not bleed, and vitality was forcibly added to the still living body tissues.
In that state, I looked down at Andrew.
A guy who made a plan for me and Ronica without paying much and made the move himself.
If you hadn’t helped me, none of this would have happened.
It’s all my fault… .
You were a helpful person to me. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to show up to my students today.
It’s definitely something to be thankful for.
But you are dead.
So what’s the use of it all?
So I don’t want you to die.
I’ve always had only Ronica in my enclosure, but now I’ve decided to expand it a bit.
so.
You don’t die today.
Sssss.
Raise morale and fuse with mana.
Black magic.
◦% ◦
Settlement of the soul. soul knot. Anti-corruption.
Since it has only been a few minutes since death, the soul still remains in the body. I don’t know the exact theory, but the soul stays in the body for about 30 minutes.
He held it so it wouldn’t leave.
and.
“ᛋᚨᚾᚷ᛫ጨᛖᚢᚾ.”
Before the injury.
Slurp-
All of Andrew’s wounds began to take over my body. Blood flow suddenly deteriorates and the world becomes dizzy.
It was not a wound that Andrew, an ordinary person, could ever endure.
“Andro… … .”
“Stay back.”
I bit my student who was worried.
The pain itself has been taken away, so there will be no pain when you wake up again.
Speaking of when I woke up… .
Next, it’s time to preserve this state.
“Ha… .”
It’s cheap-
I opened my mouth slightly.
A chill escapes.
The power of freezing taught by Artrot.
“You both step back a little further.”
I’m still weak, but I’ve been practicing this power consistently for two months. I never thought I’d be able to use my power this way, but this is the best I can do for now.
Rapid freezing.
Artrot’s power is optimized for this. If you freeze the soul while maintaining it with black magic, in theory, you can gain a lot of time without damaging it.
Let’s focus as much as possible.
Since it is dangerous as it is inexperienced, I have never made ice bigger than my face.
But now we must do it.
Left hand on the stomach.
Right hand on forehead.
The chill must be spread all at once.
As a result, my entire body became cold and paralyzed.
‘now.’
Damn enemy!!!
Andrew was immediately trapped in the ice.
If it had been a little later, I might have been the one to freeze to death.
“Ha… .”
It’s cheap~
The chill comes out uncontrollably.
This power is still immature. It immediately returned the mana circuit to normal.
“Uuuh… Andro… … .”
I opened my eyes and looked at my worried disciple. It seems like he believes me, but his eyes are filled with tears and he’s on the verge of bursting out at any moment.
If you can’t save it… .
I don’t want to cry.
Just do your best.
“… I will save you. Just wait a moment.”
“… … … .”
So, I turned around.
The person I turned to was Rauf.
“… … Do I have something to do?”
There is “. It’s the most important thing.”
“… Just tell me. I don’t want that kid to die either.”
“Then Rauf.”
Take a peek.
After picking up the attacker’s sword that had fallen on the ground, he aimed it straight at Rauf.
“Die here.”
“… what… … .”
“I will kill you.”
“Well, what does that mean?”
There is only one being who can revive the dead here.
That’s right.
“Castle Lord of Necropolis!! If you are watching, appear in front of me right now!! Otherwise, I will kill Rauf. Reveal yourself!!!”
The greatest authority on black magic.
Zane.
With her power, it is not impossible. It’s about connecting the soul and the body.
But there’s no way he’ll follow along easily.
In other words, this is a life-threatening gamble.
I shouted loudly again.
“Castle lord of Necropolis. Reveal yourself in front of me right now!!!”
Ronika too.
Rauf too.
They both look at me in confusion.
Ronica probably has no idea what the situation is, and Rauf looks very embarrassed that I am calling the castle lord.
But this is the only way.
castellan.
Although she has no emotions, we saw in her past life that she was angry at Rauf’s death.
Its only weakness is Rauf.
So I decided to use it.
It’s a big risk, but if you do it right, you’ll be able to save Andrew alive.
She is a master of black magic.
Because it deals with death itself.
It boosted morale.
He was determined to kill Rauf if he didn’t show up.
“… you… … I really don’t know. How did you know that?”
“It’s been quite a while.”
“Hmm… … .”
Rauf did not resist. I just calmly looked at my actions.
You think I won’t kill you?
what… It’s true.
I won’t kill you.
But I guess I can destroy it until it dies. That’s how sincere I am.
It’s funny.
It’s stupid.
There is no way Seongju would let me live if he found out my weakness.
This could kill me.
I would gamble with my life just to save one little guy.
It’s unclear whether she will even appear in the first place.
The lord of Necropolis might not always be watching Rauf, and he might just watch without even blinking an eye at what I say.
This is gambling on straws-
[What a strange guy.]
Coo!… .
Suddenly, I felt as if my entire body was being compressed and exploded.
A mighty force is pressing down on me.
Originally, it wouldn’t have affected me much, but now I’ve used up a lot of power, and my opponent is a very powerful high-ranking god among gods.
To the point where I want to run away.
I looked at the source of the violence.
Ronica’s necklace, which had been combined with Rauf’s pendant earlier, was vibrating.
“Why is this… .”
Ronika was embarrassed and took out the pendant. Rauf touched his forehead and took a step back, and the necklace floated on its own and came in front of me.
Soon, a fluid came out of the pendant.
Hwiyuu!~
It looks the same as the soul body I saw in Ronika’s past life. The body immediately radiated light and then turned into a human body and landed on its feet in front of me.
[Don’t you know that your life is a waste?]
It’s numb.
I feel like it’s just me and her here. Just by encountering it, my instincts warn me.
It’s dangerous.
Even though it is not a real body, the soul body is embodied as if it were real. It has not descended directly, but it has this much energy.
Artrot is no match for me.
My whole body is trying to get out of control. That guy is deliberately focusing his attention only on me. He must have noticed my condition and is trying to subdue me.
It’s not bad.
Because my threat worked.
First, he pointed to Andrew and said.
“I want to do business with you. If you save that child, I won’t kill Rauf. And separately, I will give you the information you want.”
Kuhuuuk!!-
Instead of answering, a strong feeling swept over me again.
A cold sweat breaks out without me even realizing it.
It feels like my body is compressing through what little space I have left. It’s not good enough, and it’s a bit difficult to survive at the current level.
But it didn’t show.
From the beginning, his mental strength was not inferior to that of other gods.
It’s something you just have to endure.
We continued to make eye contact.
A cold, expressionless expression.
It’s completely different from Ronica’s cold face.
The emotionlessness of not really feeling anything feels creepy.
Sze-
He took a step towards me.
The feeling of taking a picture becomes even more intense.
[It sounds like you are about to throw away your life.]
Clear warning. It means that you and I are not at a level where we can do business.
… After all, he is a god
In other worlds where your origin is different, you face many restrictions. However, if the spiritual body alone has this positive power, it seems like we can see how strong the Seongju is.
But there is no reason to be scared. What I’m afraid of is Andrew dying.
I mustered up my mental strength and answered calmly.
“Your thoughts will change when you hear the details of the transaction.”
[No matter what you suggest, it is useless. You are a threat to me. I will kill you right here.]
It’s a bluff.
He can’t kill me.
The lord of the castle is someone who holds an important position in the tower. I can’t just leave the tower, and even so, the power of my weakened spirit body alone isn’t enough to kill me.
I won’t kill Rauf’s daughter Ronika, so I have nothing to lose now-
Shoo!-
The guy stretched out his hand.
With my fingertips, something whitish penetrated my body.
ah… .
For a moment the world became blurry.
If I lose my mind for a moment, I feel like I will be swept away somewhere and disappear.
Was it not a bluff?
I let my guard down.
If he was a master of black magic, there would have been no need for a material attack.
Hold.
I pointed at my temple.
First, I dispersed the mental attack.
[…] Are you holding on?]
Fortunately, most mental attacks can be withstood, even if they are something you have never seen before. This is because I have experienced attacks like this countless times while traveling alone.
But this is not the end.
Before I knew it, he was touching my forehead.
[I need to see what kind of person you are. Show me your abyss.]
abyss?
Deep in your heart?
Are you trying to check on me?
Unfortunately, I have no intention of letting you go easily.
I didn’t want to use my strength, but at least the attack from the weakened spirit was-
Damn it!!
[…] … … .]
Suddenly, ice appeared in front of my nose.
Pointy ice spheres like sea urchins were floating around, and Seongju stood a few steps away from me and stared at me in awe.
[That’s strange. It clearly wasn’t there until just now, so why did another god intervene?]
… Is it Artrot?
To protect me?
No, it’s probably because I don’t want my secret to be revealed. Although he and I are weak, our souls have merged, and we share the secret of return.
We are led to sleep, or a transcendent means.
Thanks to this, Seongju was unable to guess who Atrot was and was on guard.
What an unexpected benefit.
During this time, I spoke to Seongju.
“If you listen to my request, I will remain silent about your weaknesses and not threaten Rauf. And I will tell you the location of what you are looking for.”
[…] What am I looking for? Do you know what it is?]
Since he couldn’t approach me hastily, he seemed to want to listen to me first.
Fortunately, in my past life, I was a messenger from Necropolis. I know pretty well what Seongju wants. This is what she went looking for, even using someone like me as her lion.
It’s something like the legend of the undead.
“Seed of rebirth metamorphosis.”
A seed that reconstructs the body.
An object that is a few steps advanced from its prime while retaining its full capabilities.
If an animal eats it, it surpasses the spirit world and becomes a ghostly beast.
If humans eat it, their immortal lifespan and talents will blossom.
The undead can regain their bodies and live a third life.
Perhaps a power close to resurrection.
A mythical item also called the Creator’s Fragment.
I know the source.
