CXI.

In fact, for about a week until the emergency signal came, the Pope’s party, the later dean’s party, and three female superhumans came to visit every day, making the place bustling with people.

The female superhumans mainly had various conversations with the Arcana, and each time they said, ‘Aaaah!’ He would often scream and scream.

In particular, when he reacted to May’s every action or saw the magic artifacts or tools May had made, his eyes lit up and he opened his wallet.

The amount of money May earned in a short period of time was close to the half-year sales of most magic stores.

Just looking at it, it looked like young women of the same age were sitting in a cafe and talking. Of course, the conversation there was not about those things.

To summarize one of those conversations with an example:

“Mr. Clown, I heard you are very strong? I heard you killed a knight corps with a wave of your hand?”

“Oh my~. Well~. My younger siblings are much better than me~. Walpurgis Chi… No, my witch sister’s secret arts are really amazing. If she’s ready, she can turn a city into a graveyard with a single wave of her hand.”

“Oh my! You are truly amazing! When can you show me your witch’s magic?”

Well, these are the contents.

Then, when I got bored, one of the adepts would spar with me once a day.

Sparring results?

Is it really necessary to ask the obvious and confirm and kill him?

Of course I lost. It’s not a level that can be compared.

No matter how deceptive the martial art called ‘Byeokhae (霹海)’ is, there is a wall between Master and Emperor that cannot be reached no matter what. I couldn’t even glance at the collar once.

The moment they said sparring, these idiot superhumans, who were almost half serious, showed no mercy.

Of course, since my opponent was a superhuman and neither were my women, I was able to show off my best, so it wasn’t a bad thing. Because he attacked with such divine power that the opponent felt like he could die.

That day, I had a brief training session in the morning and was just about to rest.

However, May’s magic doll that we each had began to glow, and May immediately identified the location.

“There. It’s the center of the Heian territory.”

It didn’t take long for Arcana and I to get together after May’s confirmation. However, it took some time for the Pope, Caligo’s sword, and the three women to come together.

Objectively, the time it took to get together wasn’t slow, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that even that time was somehow too late.

An emergency signal comes out from the magic doll, about 3 or 4 minutes?

Meanwhile, I summoned the pair card ‘THE MOON’ and placed it in May’s hand.

And just like before, as soon as May’s magic ended the rapid movement, what greeted us was a thick layer of dust and the smell of blood.

And the smell of human blood.

“Gwang… … .”

Before I could even speak, the clown’s red side, which was already moving, succeeded in blocking the attack of the beggar-looking monster’s dirty, grimy claws.

Actually, I am the weakest one here.

In fact, if possible, I would have helped the party by not joining this group, but unfortunately, Arcana and I could not stay away from Evergreen and this territory at the northeastern end of the Alfonso Empire.

I think that wouldn’t be possible even if I were a superhuman.

In fact, the fact that I am at Evergreen Academy and that Arcana can roam around Evergreen City as they please is ridiculous for beings like spiritists, so I have no intention of complaining about that.

I just had a slightly ominous thought that my pride as a man was hurt and that I might become a burden.

“Up to there.”

Was it because a harsh thought occurred to me for no reason? The words that come out of my mouth are so cold that I am surprised.

Anyway, I needed to sort out this damn situation.

Demon? Or a fallen dragon?

The clown who was chasing the guy I don’t know what he was talking about heard my voice and jumped back and stood next to me.

In that short period of time, the Pope completed first aid to the swordsman and Shingung, proving that although sacred magic was his main field, he was not the head of the Caligo sect for nothing.

and.

“Tear this. You will be moved to the Evergreen branch of the Caligo Church. Please get treatment there.”

A scroll was placed in the hand of Geomseon, whose left arm had been cut off.

At that moment, I saw Geomseon’s gaze fall on Shingung and then disperse. Is the slight movement of the lips a unique communication system?

Geomseon bit the end of the scroll with his teeth, grabbed the scroll with his good right hand, and ripped it open, disappearing from this spot.

As soon as the sword disappeared, Shingung’s voice struck my head. Like some kind of telepathic magic.

-I don’t have time, so I’ll be brief. This is a top-class demon. Its characteristics are stealth, high-speed movement, and sneak attack. And what’s special is that, according to me, unlike other demons I’ve seen so far, they can use a lot of their natural power.

[Hey. How did you get through this? The area was clearly blocked.]

A top-class demon who could not stand the moment the shrine briefly explained the situation and came forward with relaxed gestures and speech.

He’s a guy who gets on my nerves in a strange way. Even though this is the first time I’ve seen this situation, should I say that he is a person who provokes a beating that makes me feel like I need to hit him on the back of the head with a loud ‘popping’ sound and have a conversation?

Well, I’ve already experienced enough of demons’ self-attachment. Before.

Before that, the bright eyes of the guy looking at me with sparkling eyes are very annoying.

“Are you curious?”

[huh. very!!]

“Then… . I won’t tell you. 이 개새끼야!”

Superhumans have the same face as expected.

Not only Shin Gung, whose face was stiff due to the swordsmanship, but also all the superhumans burst into laughter.

The clown openly scratched the insides of the highest-level demon, saying, ‘Hohohoho, we are indeed~.’

[What a piece of trash… … ?!]

The top-level demon who was trying to lose his temper was busy spewing out his anger towards me, regardless of whether it was because he was careless, or because he was arrogant, or because he was just an idiot, even though the clown disappeared right before his eyes.

Assuming that what the shrine secretly conveyed is true, those are the highest level demons. He uses stealth like a power and moves secretly comparable to his own walking techniques.

Squeak!

In that situation, taking advantage of the distraction from me, the clown instinctively realized what was most necessary and moved.

And I succeeded in making a clear wound on his right leg so that the thigh bone was clearly visible.

Of course, since they are demons, they may be able to recover from such wounds quickly.

“Bless you.”

If it weren’t for the ruthless Pope Judas who gave his blessing to the demons.

They did not even recite special spells like choirs and eonryeongsa (言令士), which were said to have existed only in ancient times. Blessings were manifested simply by ‘speaking’.

Pope Judas’ blessing seeped into the deep wound on the thigh of the highest level demon,

[Ugh!!]

The blessings filled with Holy Power, especially the Holy Power of the Pope, the superman of the church, brought terrible and vicious pain to the demons. It goes without saying that the wound did not heal.

As if a spell had been cast to make the wound worse, the wound widened further and black smoke rose thick as if a wet straw bale had been burned.

“Vinetúra: bondage, chains.”

Was there a promise secretly made to me that the clown’s attack was the starting point of some kind of connection?

Following the Pope’s blessing, black chains rise thick and thin along with the witch’s spell.

Non-stop and constantly.

Naturally, those chains bound the highest level demon.

One layer, two layers, three layers, like sealing it several times to present a smelly food to an irritated co-worker.

“Lu―poena (Punishment of Light)!”

It is clear that there was some exchange of opinions and agreement without my knowledge. Mei also activated the spell at the exact timing.

However, the spell called ‘Punishment of Light’ that our lovely May performed was not the things the name suggests – lightning or explosions of light – but ended up summoning a spear.

Mei’s posture, holding the spear summoned in front of her, looked like a veteran warrior who knew how to use a spear from the beginning.

“Hehe. Watching my brother practice every day.”

May, who must have seen my surprised expression, cutely stuck out her tongue and smiled as she explained it, was endearing despite the situation.

But that doesn’t mean May has forgotten what she has to do.

She took out a wad of black paper from the magic pouch she wore on her waist and held it in her left hand, which was not holding a spear, and glared at the chained top-level demon with a stern look on her face.

“Six roads. Heaven (天上). Destruction. Exorcism (逐鬼).”

As if Mei’s sonorous voice was a general’s order to charge, the amulets in her hands spontaneously rose and flew toward the so-called top-class demon.

“Youngtong (靈通).”

And unlike the amulet, the spear of light thrown by Mei with her small body flies towards the highest level demon at high speed.

While piercing through all the talismans that were flying in a row earlier.

As each amulet was pierced, the intensity of the light flowing from the window of light became more intense. A spear of light emitting vivid light along with pierced amulets was embedded in the body of a top-level demon wrapped in chains.

No, should I say I was chained?

No matter where it got stuck, the spear was definitely stuck in the end. And it was clear enough to dig into more than half of it.

Just as his body was turning into a black blizzard in order to escape from the chains, May’s spear hit him.

[…] Wow! Top notch… alcohol?]

In the meantime, this guy has so much to say that he tries to explain before screaming like an explanation bug.

It’s definitely hateful.

Anyway, whether or not he became a demon, the spear embedded in the body of the highest level demon, along with the talismans, turned into a vivid, sacred white flame and engulfed the creature.

He had just turned into a black ice particle and was trying to escape the witch’s magic. Like a high-ranking vampire turning into a cloud of blood or a swarm of bats and moving or running away.

As the white flame made up of light spells and talismans ignited on the body of such a top-class demon, it became truly rideable.

Good firewood? Okay, that’s about it.

The screams were heard continuously, which meant that even though it was done to this extent, the bastard did not die.

May seemed unable to perform other spells because she was maintaining her spell.

But perhaps thanks to that, the white flame, which felt sacred, did not die out and was still burning brightly.

“───, ────. Lightning shower!”

And the superhumans who had thought they were just watching until now began to come out one by one, as if they were finally ready.

First of all, Kanviel the Lightning, as her nickname suggests, manifested the lightning-type Circle 8 magic with a short cast.

The ‘Shower’ series of magic has different effects depending on the effect, but they are commonly ranged attacks.

Its characteristic is that it pours mercilessly over a fairly wide area like a shower – at least the size of a playground.

Such shower magic was reduced to the radius of one person’s arms spread out, allowing it to pour out in a concentrated manner. It’s also a lightning magic that’s difficult to handle.

Our Punisher intercepted the gaze that was aimed at Kanviel, thinking it was amazing.

Suddenly he raised his hand and pointed at the demon.

why?

“Ah… , Was it something like that?”

“Yes? Did you hear wrong? Master?”

As I mumbled at myself, I smiled involuntarily at Jongbeol’s behavior as he asked in a tone similar to that of a junior soldier in the military.

Maybe my face will have a happy fatherly smile?

Seeing Jongbeol still not lowering one arm and tilting her head cutely with her beautiful face, my hand went up to stroke her head without my knowledge.

“Now I see that our punishment is great.”

“Yes?”

“That Mr. Kanviel’s magic. Punishment helped you?”

“… It is basic.”

Jongbeol, who blushed and trailed off as if he was embarrassed when someone praised him openly, was definitely cute in a different way than May or Catherine.

Meanwhile, the lightning magic lightning shower was coming to an end. And the highest level demon was still alive.

In the case of melee classes, such as Jester, Caligo’s Sword, and Swordsman Frey, they were unable to intervene in the chain of spells, magic, and divine magic.

In addition, even in the case of the Four Kings who used shrines or memorization, they bound them with magic and did not even think about intervening in a place where a storm of magic and thunderstorms raged.

but,

“Punish me.”

Pa-chichichichichi!!

We have a Pope who looks the youngest, but is the oldest and therefore has infinite MP and has more divine power than anyone else.

A thunderbolt exuding divine power falls from the dry sky and pierces the body of a top-class demon.

[Oops!]

“For the Lord said to the evil, ‘This is not your land.’ … .”

The temple of the Order of Caligo.

The most basic requirement to become a senior priest is to memorize the entire temple of the Caligo Church, which can be used as a weapon, and to be able to memorize the necessary parts of the temple without looking at it.

Building sacred laws in this way is the beginning of sacred spells.

Is it similar yet different from what a wizard casts?

In any case, it can be said that non-reading, establishing the holy law without reading the scriptures, is the ‘basic’ of a high-ranking priest.

This means that the elderly priests and grandmothers sitting at Evergreen can talk about poison-free construction in their sleep.

“… He commanded you to go away, evil, and it happened.”

So so so so!

A very bright light source exploded from above the head of the highest level demon. As if another sun had risen with only ‘light’ and no heat.

And, of course, the photosphere comparable to the sun was not a problem for us at all. However, it seemed to be a huge problem for top-level demons.

The photosphere floating in front of you is light.

It was light, but strangely, the guy who had returned from being an ice particle to his original beggar-like appearance was covering his ears and suffering.

Unlike witnessing the sudden rescue request and the injury of the superhuman Geomseon, the situation went one-sided.

The arcana’s coordination was excellent, and the attacks of the superhumans were also great.

“Oppa. Be careful.”

“Huh?”

So, just when I was thinking that I had won everything, I found it difficult to understand May’s warning.

“There is no way a top-level demon would do that. Yes.”

“What… … ?”

[Oh my, is this the end of the play?]

The voice of the man who had been suffering from being chained by a witch seemed a little tired, but unlike before, it was relaxed.

And if I felt like they were strangely looking down on me, was it because of my mood?

[It’s definitely pretty good. If I do this wrong, I might have to go to the end. Still, you can’t guarantee that you’ll win, right? shit?]

Despite the bastard’s muttering, May, Kanviel, and Punishment did not stop attacking.

[Anyway, wasn’t Dagul a bit too much? Humanly speaking, 1:7 is too much, right? So I also called our side. I hope you understand.]

As soon as he finished speaking, the three dots approaching quickly from afar were getting bigger and bigger.

“Ha, fuck?”

It’s a dragon. It is not a human polymorph, but a complete dragon.
