Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 473

[473[Tuesday] Apostate may care, but I don't

The human race spreads holy laws with the divine power of the demon god and speaks of punishment for the apostates..

Looking at the situation alone, it could be dismissed as just part of the countless eccentricities and madness that took place on the battlefield..

In the first place, not only demons lived in the Demon Territory, so it is not uncommon for humans to serve demon gods..

If you have sincere faith, you can awaken to divine power, and in doing so, it is possible to train yourself to a level where you can fight sufficiently, even if you are weaker than other heresy judges or church warriors..

It's just that the Demon God Church did not intervene in this war, so there was nothing to do..

Therefore, it is only a very rare sight to see a human race like a Crusader of the Demon God Church fighting alongside the army of the Kingdom of Ithisel and a hero, but it is not impossible..

However, it was a separate matter for the target to lay waste to the front lines with military power worthy of a warrior..

Because of this, the Demon King's army fell into confusion, and unlike usual when he wielded his sword mechanically, he had no choice but to use his brain and get into trouble..

"What!? Why is the Crusader of the Demon God Cult coming out of there?!?"

In fact, whether it was a crusader, a paladin, or a heretic judge, I liked the little things like that..

What was important was that even though it was thought to be a great war that depended on the fate of the race, a member of the Demon Cult who did not participate and maintained silence suddenly appeared in the enemy camp..

Because it had enough impact to paralyze the Demon Lord's reason..

As the mercilessly pushed front line took away the initial ridicule, and the word he shouted for apostasy made the soldiers' limbs heavy, the unidentified tension that was hovering among the Demon King's army gradually began to degenerate into anxiety and fear..

"Fuck you, come to your senses! Come to your senses, you bastards! We are demons! Even if we serve the demon god, we serve, and even if we receive the demon god’s protection, we receive it! Don't be swayed by those words.!"

In order to end such anxiety and maintain military discipline, it was natural for those called commanders and captains to raise their voices..

"The guys who roll as they please on this fucking battlefield are swayed by things like that.?!"

The demon, who could tell how many times he had crossed the border between life and death just by looking at the scars on his face and horns, shouted in a loud voice and cut the kingdom's army in half..

Meanwhile, the other commander, who had organized the battle line with an extremely calm attitude, tried to calm the confusion by entrusting the distracted new soldiers to senior officers..

The centurion, one of the few battle mages among the demons, deliberately cast massive spells to boost morale and attract the attention of allies..

"Don't forget what you're fighting for! for freedom!"

Their judgment for their allies was not wrong. In fact, it was 'almost' certain that some soldiers would be influenced by their brave actions and quickly regain stability..

The only fault they have is that they did not know that they should not reveal their location like that..

-profit!

Even in the overflowing noise, Eldmia's needle crosses the battlefield with a whistle that is so foreign that it is especially noticeable in the ears..

The mouth of a warrior who was roaring loudly as he almost threw a knight in half was pierced, a hole was blown in the back of the head of a captain who was calmly preparing his square, and the heart of a centurion who was about to fire a spell with his maximizing magical power was cut. It took less than a minute to get pierced..

Only painful screams came out from the mouth of the warrior who was trying to boost the morale of his allies, and the despair of the team members who lost their trustworthy leader accelerated even more, and the magic that the caster lost ran away, causing a huge explosion in the area..

In the chaos of the battlefield, only two people realized that Eldmia had caused all the deaths..

Siegfried already knows what his weapon is.

"The hero is not the problem! Kill the flute knight! He uses an artifact!"

A member of the Demon King's army realized that an unknown projectile was flying and massacring his allies to the sound of Eldmia's whistle, and bravely rushed to stop it. The remaining needles floated next to Eldmia, who was facing him as he attacked from the front, and a whistle sounded once more..

"I! I will open the way!"

It was a heroic sight for the Demon King's army. The soldier who rushed towards Eldmia not only reacted to all the needles, but also succeeded in evading and defending with ghost-like movements. Holding a small buckler and short sword in front of him, he narrowed the distance by destroying eight projectiles using only his skills..

For the Demon King's army, for whom skill was everything, that movement was like an indicator that gave them faith that they could win the battle if they listened to his instructions, and the veteran soldiers around him who made their decision in a short moment of only a dozen seconds also fixed their weapons. He ran towards Eldmia while holding it..

There are knights around him, but they are not important. Even if I die here, I will definitely kill that one guy. The movement of the Demon King's army, which raised its magical power with such determination, was explosive....

"Eldmia!"

Seeing the scene, Siegfried urgently shouted a few words, showing a slight hesitation..

Most of the missions and operations of the Special Operations Command were carried out in secret, so the soldiers on the front lines were not fully aware of them, but there was one major incident that no one knew about..

An incident in which a magical bomb was sent to Ethisel territory and was attempted to explode, resulting in extensive damage. No matter how Special Operations Command was, there was no way to completely cover up the tragedy, and eventually, as rumors spread, there was no one in the Demon King's army who did not know about it..

Special Operations Command's official name for Operation 'Thunderbolt''.

After the unexpected and disastrous failure, it was called 'Blind Lightning', but ordinary soldiers who did not know about it called it 'Little Eldmia Attack Incident'..

Could it be that the flute knight is ‘that’ Eldmia?...?

"Don't just call your name, look ahead.."

There was no way to know the expression inside the helmet. However, that calm answer spoke of the flute player's skills and confidence, and soon a huge amount of magical power overflowed from his body..

"mind...?!"

Before the soldier who was running at the forefront could finish speaking, his head was cut off with his shield, sword, and hand extended forward..

The strike was so clean that it made you think you were seeing a white line in the air, and it was incredibly fast for a two-handed axe. However, he had no time to admire the soldiers running behind him. Eldmia, who had killed one person by quickly closing the distance of about 10 meters, whistled again..

It felt so natural that it felt like a flute sounded every time I moved. Some people were impressed by this, while others vaguely sensed that Eldmia's divine power was beginning to subside over her magic, and they were unable to avoid her flying needles and met her death..

"This is fucking too much!"

The soldier who narrowly avoided the needle and was trying to catch Eldmia's ax that was being swung at his neck, expressed his frustration and the cry he made became his last words..

The other soldier, who realized that the movement was faster than before, did not even understand the situation of the flying two-handed axe, and flew backwards with the ax stuck in his chest, hitting other allies..

"There is no noble cause or freedom in your fight, you blind apostates.."

Even though he slaughtered people in an instant, the flute knight did not even lose his breath. Among those who attempted a bold charge, only the soldier at the back was the one who understood what the full magical power felt from him and what divine power meant..

I don't know if it was because he lacked the skills or was the slowest in making decisions, but he sat down on the floor after gaining a full understanding of the situation at the expense of his comrades who had died before him. Thanks to this, he was able to save his life by unintentionally dodging the needle aimed at his neck, but he could not take comfort in that fact..

"dragon, warrior..."

Humans cannot use magic power.

What is a being that directly contradicts the immutable truth that has accompanied the history of the continent, if not a hero?.

"He's a hero! The Demon God's hero came to the side of the human race.!"

However, the warrior calls themselves apostates and is brandishing a weapon..

The soldier, who collapsed on the ground in a reality that was difficult to handle with his bare mind, ultimately chose to run away, wading through the mud without even thinking about picking up his weapon again..

"Demon, the devil has abandoned us!!"

Seeing the soldier trying to run away while screaming with a distorted face, Eldmia briefly clicked her tongue, reached out her hand, retrieved the ax, and took her stance again..

"no."

Anyone could see that he was ready to throw an ax with both hands, but no one dared to stop him. Unlike the humans who had already given up on understanding the situation and decided to focus only on doing their duty, what the fleeing soldier felt was also felt by the surrounding demon lords....

...The anxiety that they might really be demonic heroes made their hands and feet heavy..

"'You've turned your back on the devil.."

At the same time as the ax left his hand and got stuck in the back of the fleeing soldier, a new signal came from the Demon King's army..

It was a signal announcing the arrival of the warrior response unit and a signal to retreat..
