Genius Warlock-Episode 543

543. swan prince (2)

“I'm home.”

Oliver appeared through the dust and spoke calmly..

Until just now... No, this is a very insensitive statement to those who are still fighting war..

But no one dared question.

This was because the presence that Oliver showed still remained in their minds, and as soon as he appeared, he easily blew away a monster that could easily exceed 7 meters..

That too with the basic black magic, Thrust..

It was quite a shocking scene, and it was bound to be even more shocking to those who were versed in black magic..

That's because, if you dig deeper, the basic black magic, Thrust, was not a simple black magic that just pushed the target away..

It was true that it pushed the target, but it had a slightly more complicated mechanism than that..

Not only is it pushed away by the power of black magic, but the magician's body is also affected..

For example, trust can easily push a target if there is no difference in strength, weight, or mass between the caster and the target.,

It was a black magic where if the target had an overwhelmingly high mass, the caster would be pushed out and take damage..

However, Oliver used that trust to instantly send the monster flying to the other side.?

It was as if one individual had pushed down a structure containing dozens or hundreds of people..

That meant that Oliver's pitifully thin body could easily outshine hundreds of people..

“Please excuse me.”

Whether he was aware of the gazes of those people or not, Oliver politely asked people as he passed through the corpses and rubble. moved forward.

One by one, I took a step back, feeling my blood, which had been hot from the fight just now, turn cold..

The air changed by just one person.

And it wasn't just our allies who were affected..

The same was true for the prince candidate of the Swan Church, who was not at all defeated but rather overwhelmed against hundreds of people..

He stopped fighting and stared at Oliver with his characteristic impassive expression..

It's as if he doesn't care about anyone but Oliver..

Oliver and the Swan Prince faced each other among the people who stepped back when they cleared the way..

Silence covered the surroundings..

“ha······. hello.”

It was Oliver who spoke first. He took a deep breath and bowed politely to the man wearing the thistle crown..

Not the sharp attitude he showed when he went to see Sleeping Beauty, but his usual self..

People who knew Oliver were relieved to see that..

Actually, the Swan Prince who heard the greeting was only silent..

“······.”

I wasn't offended. While he was silent, Oliver could take a look at the Swan Prince..

‘A body reminiscent of malnutrition, clothes that are almost like rags, a thistle crown on the head, and a flesh knife that feels like a lot of people.······.’

Among them, Oliver's eyes were drawn to the knife made of flesh, as he saw a familiar aura..

The silence continued. It was so long that an onlooker who was watching from the side intervened..

“hey answer-”

“-No, thanks. I don't know the exact reason for these people, but they can't talk..”

Oliver raised his hand and defended the Swan Prince..

Although he didn't know the details of whether it was a side effect of a deal with the devil or a side effect of human sacrifice, Oliver already knew through Sleeping Beauty that the sect's leader, the Swan Princess, and the prince candidates were unable to speak..

Looking at his emotional state, it seemed like it was right..

Oliver politely continued the conversation again..

“nice to meet you Prince candidate of the Swan Order. My name is Dave. This is the solution for street number 30 in Landa T area. If you don't mind, could you listen to me for a moment??”

The Swan Prince glanced at Oliver and then remained silent without any gesture. I meant to tell you.

“Thank you for your permission. Prince candidate... You may not know me, Prince Candidate, but I know very little about you. I heard it by chance..”

“······.”

“I'm sorry if this fact offends you..”

Oliver explained the situation and politely apologized again. Really normal appearance. However, next he said something unexpected..

“Could you please go back like this??”

“······?!”

Everyone who was listening flinched at Oliver's blunt request. The Swan Prince was no exception..

“I heard why the prince candidate came here. It's not the Meat Chef's legacy, but rather something to do with Sleeping Beauty who appeared here.?”

The job was to stab the princess with a knife and absorb her, but Oliver didn't bother to tell her about it..

The Swan Prince agreed in silence..

Oliver spoke uncharacteristically, or shamelessly, like him..

“I'm sorry, but I still have some business to attend to this princess, so that might be difficult. So, could you please step aside??”

The eyes of not only the Swan Prince who requested the favor, but also the hundreds of people watching from the sidelines, were all focused on Oliver..

Apparently, in that short period of time, Oliver seemed to have met Sleeping Beauty, as he said..

Maybe that's why he gave off a heavy presence even though he had the same attitude as usual..

Sleeping Beauty was said to grant favors and share knowledge with those who met her..

However, what was important now was not that, but Oliver's attitude..

Sleeping beauty. Although she was not as famous as her fingers, she was also a semi-legendary figure who was just as famous as her fingers..

However, Oliver was saying that he still had a chance to see such a being..

Words and actions are shadows that indirectly show the world in which the speaker lives. Considering that, I was able to indirectly know Oliver's current location..

Now Oliver was a warlock who had reached the same level as Finger. It's the same level as old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years..

Surprised but not strange.

There was a heavy silence at the shocking statement, and Oliver asked the question again..

“Could you please do me a favor??”

The Swan Prince stood still in response to Oliver's question..

The silence continued again, and a rustling sound sounded as if a creature was moving somewhere. Oliver turned his head..

Without missing the moment, the Swan Prince responded by pulling the flesh knife..

Preparation for stabbing.

The air is sucked in and compressed around the Swan Prince at a speed so fast that he cannot even react..

bang! An explosion sounds and the ground shakes. The Swan Prince knelt down with his hands on the ground..

This was because a huge hand made of emotions pressed down from above just before the Swan Prince attacked..

“······!”

In a sudden situation, the Swan Prince forced his head up to look up at Oliver, and thanks to this, he was able to see..

Even more than yourself. Oliver's face was more expressionless than the other prince candidates. Oliver's insensitive and arrogant face, as if he was looking at nothing..

When he saw that, the Swan Prince's mask-like face cracked..

However, Oliver again politely asked if he was aware of that fact or if he was not interested..

“Sorry, but please ask again. Could you please step down? I'm really tired today-”

━Paang!!

Before Oliver could finish speaking, the Swan Prince received the life force of the believers through the thistle crown he wore on his head and strengthened his body. He shook off the sword that was pressing down on him with brutal force..

The resulting shock wave and gusts of wind occurred in the aftermath. The ground turned over, blocking people's view for a moment..

Oliver was no exception, and the Swan Prince took the momentum and rushed right in..

[Objective Hate)]

As soon as the Swan Prince runs in, Oliver activates black magic..

When the Swan Prince was forced to stand up, he instilled feelings of hatred into the fragments, causing them to attack the Swan Prince..

On the outside, it looked like dirt, stones, or tree branches, but it was clearly a part of the sleeping forest..

The fragments that spread out in all directions turned into bullets one by one and were deeply embedded in the body of the Swan Prince..

Burbubbbubbuk!!

The Swan Prince paused for a moment due to the shock of being hit by a piece of debris, but that was all. He didn't take any more damage than that..

[Tetanus)]

Until Oliver used disease-type black magic..

The disease spread by Oliver penetrated the Swan Prince's body through fragments embedded in his body, causing shock..

It was difficult to activate it due to the condition that it could only be used by inflicting damage to the opponent's body, such as a knife or splinter, but the effect was excellent..

The Swan Prince was in shock and blood was spouting from his nose and mouth..

The Stumbling Swan Prince.

He looked like he would collapse at any moment, but he regained his vitality through the thistle crown he wore on his head and soon recovered..

What the princess said was true.

‘The Swan Princess can use Human Sacrifice. At least life force or body parts. In a big way, you can borrow the power of the devil by sacrificing the person itself..’

Sleeping Beauty said that through the power of human sacrifice, the human meat cook was able to freely use difficult summoning magic, and the Swan Cult was able to take root in the Iberian Republic..

Increasing new believers by sacrificing existing believers and performing new miracles.

Somehow, Sheamus' ABC investment comes to mind. What is important here is that the Swan Prince's superhuman strength and extraordinary regenerative abilities were also based on this human sacrifice..

In other words, in theory, as long as you have enough believers, you can exert superhuman strength without difficulty without dying..

It was quite an incredible story, but perhaps because he was tired, Oliver was not impressed..

Rather, all I was concerned about was the flesh knife the Swan Prince was holding and the black hand visible above his head..

A black hand with a different texture from the black hand on Marie's head..

‘Of course, if you can't avoid it... I'll have to secure it and research it.?’

Oliver made up his mind and extracted a large amount of emotion and vitality from the Sleeping Forest with one hand..

Scattered on the corpses lying on the floor..

The dismembered corpses came to life and soon came under the control of the magician who gave them life..

[Flesh Pillar)]

Using the corpse within his control, Oliver creates a pillar of flesh made up of pink flesh, white bones, and yellowish leather. I easily blocked the sword swung by the Swan Prince..

puck!

Because it was a black magic using high-density emotions, vitality, and fresh corpses..

However, the Swan Prince showed a flash of emotion with an expressionless face, as if he had seen an opportunity, and those who watched expressed a sense of crisis..

one of them shouted.

“Be careful! absorbs!!”

Advice for Oliver. As if to prove his words, the Swan Prince's flesh blade made a sound of crushing raw flesh and tried to absorb the pillar of flesh..

[Finger Gun)]

At that time, Oliver fired dozens of bullets using the fingers he had set aside to control the corpse, piercing the body of the Swan Prince..

The dull sound of piercing flesh resounded low, and the Swan Prince was taken aback..

Obviously, according to his calculations, he should have cut down Oliver while absorbing the flesh pillar, but instead of absorbing the flesh pillar, he ended up allowing an attack..

However, it wasn't that surprising.

No matter how much the devil's power was borrowed through human sacrifice, in the end, since it was done by humans, it had no choice but to base it on magic..

Just as it was about to be absorbed, Oliver interpreted the technique and dug in to prevent the absorption..

Of course, it wasn't as simple as it sounds, but Oliver succeeded. He proved it was possible.

Oliver wasn't satisfied there, though..

[Biobomb)]

Oliver exploded with vitality and emotion through the finger inserted into the Swan Prince's body..

Thanks to the use of only good materials, such as high-density emotions, vitality, and the body of a superhuman, the Swan Prince's body bulged here and there and exploded into pieces..

‘It reminds me of when I became the master's disciple..’

While everyone was shocked by the terrible sight of a person being blown up alive, Oliver was satisfied by recalling the past..

I wasn't satisfied with blowing up people. As expected, the Swan Prince's vitality was greatly reduced, which was satisfactory..

The more damage you take, the more energy is consumed for regeneration..

‘The blood of the Bathory family, like the human flesh of the human meat chef. The Swan Church uses believers as materials, but the basic principles are the same, so they can be attacked in the same way. No matter how many believers there are, their number will not be infinite..’

Oliver attacked the Swan Prince based on his experience dealing with numerous regenerative powers..

No matter how many resources you have for regeneration, if you take damage that wipes out dozens or hundreds of people at once, you will inevitably feel psychologically weakened..

The prediction was exactly true, and the reckless Swan Prince took a step back for the first time..

At first glance, it was an unremarkable movement, but everyone could see that the atmosphere had changed..

Oliver, the people watching, even the Swan Prince.

Oliver used his momentum to create dozens of bullets from the flesh and bones of the surrounding corpses and shot them at the Swan Prince..

The Swan Prince used his flesh knife to use black magic to create a huge wolf-creature, used it as a wall, and began to retreat backwards..

As soon as the wolf-creature, which was as big as a car, was hit by a flesh bullet, its body bulged and exploded, and the Swan Prince took advantage of the gap to escape deep into the forest..

Everyone who saw that was shocked..

These include warlocks, treasure hunters, mercenaries hired by royal nobles, and millilles..

They let the Swan Prince run away even though they all attacked him and couldn't subdue him..

I knew Oliver was strong, but this was beyond my imagination. It was as if I had gained tremendous strength from meeting Giyeon. Or the shackles that held his body loose.

Then, Oliver said.

“You didn't run away.”

Oliver, who saw through the Swan Prince's feelings, said.

It was true that he was taken aback by Oliver's response, but he was not discouraged, scared, or afraid..

Caused by the anger and despair deep in my heart.

Ironically, he was motivated not only by anger but also by the despair that made him give up everything..

Find a way to win. Soon, he reappeared with his method..

The method is none other than the monster bird that flew to the other side when Oliver appeared.,

The Swan Prince used the people absorbed by the Flesh Sword as fuel to restore the broken monster and brought it back..

The vast energy contained in the monster's body is proof of this..

People were shaken by the appearance of the Swan Prince again with the monster, but Oliver calmly grabbed the quarter staff and threw it around the Black Javelin..

Quarter staff flying with a flash of black light.

The Swan Prince used the monster to hit the quarter staff and send it flying high into the sky..

Oliver is empty-handed.

The monster raised the shovel and struck the ground..

When the shovel touches the ground, a vibration occurs from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, and the ground where the shovel is stuck bulges..

Everyone who saw that scene felt that the ground would explode and turn over like a tsunami, but fortunately that did not happen..

This was because Oliver's shadow had grown so large that it was hard to believe even when seeing it with one's own eyes, covering the ground around the monster and suppressing the explosion with its force..

The shadow asked to be allowed to eat the monsters as is, but Oliver refused, considering that the shadow had already eaten many creatures. I tried to move on to the next action..

Unfortunately, the Swan Prince was a little faster this time..

He plunged his flesh knife into the ground, causing rotten flesh to bloom around Oliver and summoning many red, jerky-like stone statues..

The statue's entire body, including its face, was tied up in restraints, with only its mouth sticking out..

The bizarre-shaped statue let out a sound that I couldn't tell whether it was a scream or a prayer, and at that moment, Oliver's shadow shook in pain..

The prayer uttered by this stone statue. It was quite similar to the ritual seen when the Burned One was summoned in the New World..

Oliver's shadow shrinks in an instant..

Black magic could not be used for a few seconds as it was disturbed by the scream, and the Swan Prince did not miss the moment and raised his flesh sword into the air and summoned a huge fist in the sky..

It is similar to a giant's fist, but if you look closely, you can see that it was made by melting the arms of countless people..

A giant's fist tears through the blurred air and falls.

A red stone statue reciting a screaming prayer.

Oliver, in the middle, clenched his left hand into a fist and stretched his arm toward the sky, following his instinct rather than his mind..
