=================

While holding Zeveline, I kicked the ground and widened the distance.

At the same time, hundreds of firearms waiting to be fired suddenly burst into flames.

Ta-da-da-da-da-dang──!!

Bullets rained down in a fan-shaped area.

The distance from the target is approximately 30 yards.

No matter how much he boasted of his superhuman reflex speed, it was impossible to avoid the barrage of bullets.

How are you going to stop the bullets?

It’s already too late to avoid it.

I stared at the black cardinal, who still looked calm even though countless bullets were flying right in front of me.

“I heard the news… That’s an amazing ability.”

The blades that the cardinal held out in both hands waved vaguely. Then, all the hundreds of bullets that pierced the air bounced off and fell on the dirt ground.

I just swung my sword loudly.

Even Ilkeron’s weapon was nothing more than an ordinary iron sword that could be found at any blacksmith shop.

Even the trajectory of the slash was not visible.

Edanant, who witnessed the scene before his eyes, opened his eyes and swallowed.

-… It’s like a monster.

He is the strongest superhuman who raised Maximilian into the strongest warrior of all time. Therefore, I expected to some extent that it would be a strong enemy that would be difficult to deal with.

But no one would have thought that it would be a monster capable of fighting Mugo’s fortune with an ordinary iron sword. I’ve never seen a monster like this anywhere.

-Then how about this?

Wow!!

Siege guns were deployed as a black haze swirled. Soon, the siege guns attacked the Black Cardinal with a barrage of artillery fire.

It is a bombardment that boasts overwhelming destructive power.

Even with the excellent swordsmanship I just showed, I can’t help but be bombarded.

We have no choice but to widen the distance.

Edanant gathered matchlock guns to take advantage of the momentary opportunity.

– Holy crazy!

However, Ilkeron made an extraordinary decision to break through the front line of the barrage of artillery shells, as if defying common sense.

The sight of Ilkeron rushing forward, cutting down shells and cutting through flames, reminded me of a hungry wild dog. Even though his whole body was scorched by the heat, he tried to attack with hand-to-hand combat without hesitation.

The distance narrows.

Ultimately, the plan is to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Edanant, seeing him, pulled out Aldebaran, blocking Jebeline’s path.

-Pfft!

“Great response.”

Let’s go!!

The Cardinal’s sword attack, which was like a gale, was blocked by Aldebaran.

Ilkeron responded with a meaningful smile to Aedanant’s defense, which was quickly blocked even though it was a counterattack that occurred in a split second.

“It’s Maximilian’s swordsmanship. Did you really learn it from your brother?”

– Could it be that the blunt guy taught me kindly? Of course, I taught myself.

Just by exchanging blows, Ilkeron realized that Edanant’s swordsmanship was imitating Maximilian’s. This is because the sword skills contained in swordsmanship were very familiar.

I learned it on my own… .

It is indeed a natural talent worthy of Maximilian’s younger brother.

The fact that it was a vessel containing the ashes of Mugo was truly deplorable. If he had been a warrior of the Holy Empire who was loyal to the one God, he would have been entrusted with his successor.

“Ethan!”

Sword and sword strikes mixed together like a dissonant sound, creating a violent storm. The ground swept by the storm was torn apart horribly as if it had been hit by a bombing raid.

A moment of inattention could cost you your life.

The fiercely flashing blade swung mercilessly, slowly threatening Edanant’s life.

Jeveline, who was watching the scene with a look of nervousness, shouted.

“Innate talent comparable to that of Maximilian and intuition developed through countless experiences… . You are truly the hero who saved the Baltaria Empire.”

-Stop talking, old man. Do you always fight with your snout?

“Innately, as you get older, your emotions become deeper.”

-If you’re old, go to a nursing home.

Kagagak-!!

The sound of metal grinding was heard as Aldebaran and two iron swords crossed each other.

At the same time, Edanant and Ilkeron took a step forward and swung their swords.

The battle of strength was Edanant’s victory.

Ilkeron, who had blocked the fierce sword strike, stepped back for a moment as if he had not been able to completely offset the force.

There was no way Edanant would not take advantage of the momentary gap. Edanant immediately converted the gauntlet on his right hand into a weapon equipped with a high explosive bomb and aimed at Ilkeron’s body.

Wow!!

As soon as he grasped his hand, the trigger of the high explosive was activated, causing an explosion.

But the attack ended in vain. This is because, just before taking control, Ilkeron instinctively sensed danger and immediately widened the distance.

“The attack just now… !”

Quickly explodes the opponent with a fist equipped with a high explosive bomb. It was a fighting method designed to deal with swordsmen who were equal or stronger than themselves.

This is truly an extreme attack.

If the attack had been successful, the upper body would have been scattered without a trace.

Ilkeron, who barely managed to evade, showed a panicked reaction for the first time since the battle began.

-It’s a technique that was originally designed to turn the damn hero into a bouncer, but it can’t be helped. The teacher who raised Cheon Go Il Woong to what he is today will have to suffer in his stead.

“… … .”

If you try too hard to attack, there is a risk of being caught in the explosion of a high explosive bomb. However, the hundreds of muskets deployed in the air were too much of a burden to simply widen the distance.

It’s like being cornered by a foreigner.

It was indeed a technique used to defeat Maximilian.

Holding the twin swords in both hands, Ilkeron let out a heavy sigh and calmed his confused mind.

‘There is only one way. It won’t be easy… It must be finished with one strike before the bomb explodes.’

If you strike from afar, Edanant will definitely block it.

Close the distance at a speed that exceeds the speed of sound.

And before Edanant senses the danger, he occupies the blind spot and stabs the gap.

Like a seasoned hunter, Ilkeron immediately prepared a method of destruction. However, it was not an easy method, so he held the sword hilt firmly and showed caution.

“Cardinal Nebiacus!”

“We will join in too!”

When faced with a critical situation that determines the direction of victory or defeat,

Paladins wearing black cloaks began to run with their swords drawn.

These are the royal dogs of the Holy Empire.

It must be an elite unit commanded by Ilkeron.

If the Paladins, whose short-term power is comparable to that of the Guardian Knights, join the fight, Edanant will definitely be on the defensive. Zeveline blocked the way forward, spewing out a white thunderbolt.

“The first saint… ! A dirty witch with misfortune!”

“Kill the witch! She is a cunning witch who has deceived His Holiness and his followers until now!”

Zeveline smiled coldly at the cries of the paladins stained with contempt and hatred.

okay,

If you call me a witch, I will be a witch for you.

You will have to bear the repercussions for that.

I was determined to give up anything to protect the person I loved. Therefore, the White Dragon Saintess did not care about the evil name of being a witch.

Damn it!

The thunderbolt in Zeveline’s grasp flashed and took the shape of a staff. What was summoned through the thunderbolt was the Scepter of the Midnight Sun, the sacred weapon of the Second Saint Beatrice.

When the scepter decorated with blue gems and pure white ivory appeared, the Holy Knights expressed astonishment. Zeveline raised the scepter of the midnight sun, emitting a white dragon’s thunderbolt, and colored the surrounding area.

“… … !”

When the white dragon saint was blocking the intervention of the holy knights,

The close confrontation between Edanant and Ilkeron began to lead to catastrophe.

The black cardinal moved.

He kicked the ground with the sharp tip of his sword dangling down and launched an explosive sprint.

Quickly.

It was a realm of speed that no one would dare to touch.

The speed of the cardinal, who had reached the realm of the strongest, was such that even Edanant’s vision was shaken off. Even an experienced intuition that always warned me of danger would not be able to detect it as quickly.

Sigh-.

The shadow that had disappeared in an instant appeared.

Ilkeron, who broke through the realm of speed, reached behind Edanant in an instant. As if he had activated a transfer magic, he approached without even the slightest hint and raised the tip of his sword.

‘Sleep for the eternity of the One God, the misfortune of war.’

The sharp blade aimed at the gap in Edanant’s armor. The purpose was to take off Edanant’s head by taking advantage of the tiny gap.

but-.

As soon as the Cardinal’s blow was fired, a change occurred in Edanant’s armor, which was armed with high explosive bombs.

The armor of Ashes emitted high heat as if a trigger had been pressed, causing an overload. It was overwhelming heat energy, enough to devastate the surrounding area in an instant.

“Seo, no way… !”

I lost sight of Ilkeron, who had activated the realm of speed. As if to prove the situation, Edanant’s eyes were still fixed on the front.

But it didn’t matter.

This is because no matter where you aim, it will first approach you.

As soon as Ilkeron disappeared, the trigger was activated. As if Edanant was performing a suicide special attack, all the high explosive bombs mounted on his full body armor spewed out flames.

───!!

────────!!!!

The punishment of disaster exploded along with the binge drinking that was close to the beginning of the world. Ilkeron, who had been targeting Edanant, was caught up in the punishment without being able to do anything.
