Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 495
[495Tue] The Stowaways Guide to the Demon's territory
Kal Kansi was a capable guide, and we arrived at our destination after traveling while lamenting the ongoing security situation of the Demon Spirit..
"That's the headquarters of the Demon God Religion, Lengie Epagasierra, which our guests have been waiting for and waiting for.."
It was a pity for Karl Kansi, who happily announced it with open arms as if it was truly a monumental moment, but he was not in a situation where he could afford to sympathize with it just because it arrived quickly..
You were in a hurry because you heard that the attack had already begun..
It was very clear what the sight of something like a black boulder writhing near the castle wall in the distance and the faintly resonating thumping meant, so I handed Karl Kansi the money bag I had prepared in advance and said,.
"thank you so much. Thanks to you, I was able to arrive much ahead of schedule.."
"What already? Can you see the strange lumps attached to the castle wall over there? You can't let down your guard until you break through that and enter the city.."
"I see it well, I know it well. So, I would like to request one last thing.."
"...Eh?"
It seems like I can see a familiar Leica in Karl Kansi, who tilts his head and pricks up his ears. But he didn't have time to indulge in such sentiments, so he spurred on and shouted..
"When the gate opens, enter the city with my horse! And if any cover troops come out, tell them to block and watch.!"
"What, what? for a moment? customer?"
I could have just accepted the money and thrown away, but for now, I have decided to trust his professional spirit. In fact, he has worked hard to complete his duties to the point where I can give him that level of trust by coming this far. Now was the time to organize the surroundings for a moment to enter the castle gate as he said..
First, when we spread the holy method to strengthen the horse's body, the horse was taken aback by the sudden overflow of power and trembled for a moment. However, he quickly adapts to the reins and starts galloping at a stronger and faster pace..
As we passed through the forest and entered the wide plain, the camp located on the far right came into view. The emerald sea beyond the city and the cold, clear blue sky combined to create a truly beautiful picture-like scene, but the appreciation did not last long because it was obvious that it was a unit of the Demon King's army..
The plains are clean. There were no traces of any siege. However, because it was so clean, the broken weapons, human corpses, and twisted corpses of the Unlucky Hulks were especially noticeable..
There are ten living, moving monsters. About eight dead monsters.
Considering that the fight lasted over a week, there were not many monster corpses or allies' corpses..
"They were trying to stop me and kill me.."
I don't mean to ignore the forces of the Demon God Cult and Rengi, but if 18 Unlucky Hulks ran rampant at the same time, it would never end with only that many dead. Moreover, if there was a strong person of the sword master level in the city, they would have been annihilated long ago, so the numbers do not match. It would be more correct to say that the Demon King's army is sequentially deploying monsters to put pressure on them, and that the city knew this and entered the city..
In that case, even if you kill all ten of them here, there is a high possibility that only another monster will be sent in. And reports about me suddenly appearing and killing all the monsters will reach the upper levels of the Demon King's army..
I feel like I want to start by killing them all, but if the saintess's preparations are not yet complete, it will only cause unnecessary caution and give the enemies time to react..
As soon as he finished making his decision, he took out his helmet, put it on, and jumped off the horse. Fortunately, the horse continued to run toward the entrance of the city without falling into another direction, and I raised my magical power and divine power as I watched the monsters turning their gaze in this direction..
What you need to do right now is to attract the attention of the monsters before Kal Kanshi enters the city, and then kill one of them for sure..
I looked through it with magic power, but there wasn't even any surveillance magic around. The Demon Lord's army far away will know that Unlucky Hulk is dead, but they will not know how one-sidedly I killed him..
But those on the walls are different. They'll know their insane resilience and strength, and they'll understand what it means for me to kill one of them hard and fast. There was only so much I could do right now for those who were surrounded by those guys and their morale was completely ruined..
Place the sword at your waist and take a stance as if charging a lance to further increase your magical power. Then, the body, which had recently been moving only with pure strength, became light as if a piece of lead had been thrown off, and began to overflow with strength. It feels like the magic engine has been resting for some time and is somehow running more powerfully..
And that was true not only of magical power but also of divine power. At first, it didn't move as if it was blocked by something, but as time passed, it started to move faster, as if breaking the shackles..
It may seem like a bit of a fanatic, but for a moment I had the feeling that Epa was watching, so I tried my best to smile and shout out even as I faced the Unlucky Hulk running towards me after spotting me..
"Epaga! One more guy goes up.!!"
As if in response to my shout, sword fragments exploded..
◈
Carl Kansi laughed..
Because it was difficult to accept the situation without laughing..
At first, the customer, who didn't know how scary the monsters were and thought he was going to commit a reckless act, burst into the ground at an uncontrollable speed, and Kal Kansi was in that state ever since..
"He was a hero? The customer was a hero!"
Rumors from the front line are connected to the tunnels. This is natural since they make a living through smuggling and smuggling. Therefore, Kalkansi was able to come up with the correct answer without difficulty by combining the rumors he heard and the sight that unfolded before his eyes..
A demonic human warrior who shook the battle lines together with the empire's warriors. that his guest, Ethan Ravischer, was that hero..
It's impossible not to feel the aura while making movements like that. There is no mistaking the sight of the human race praising Epaga and unleashing their divine power. Experiencing an unexpected event for the first time in a long time, Karl Kansi felt his heart beating rapidly..
However, as soon as I saw the castle door, which seemed to be closed and wouldn't open, slowly starting to open, I quickly came to my senses and moved to fulfill the customer's last request. Fortunately, there was no need to make an effort to chase after the customer who ran away on his own. Because he ran towards the gate on his own..
However, the troops visible beyond the quickly opening castle gate could not be stopped by words, so they had to hurry..
"shit! Please run well on your own.!"
Unlike Ethan's words, which ran to the city in an instant, perhaps because he was blessed with divine power, Kalkanshi's words were ordinary. At this distance, it would have been faster for Karl Kansi to sprint than his horse, so in the end, Karl Kansi jumped off his horse to run on all fours for the first time in a while..
It was no longer important that the horse was carrying most of the baggage and money. It's okay to make money, but there aren't many opportunities to get involved in major events like this..
Even as the monsters' screams, footsteps, and punches shook the earth, Kal Kansi just ran straight. At the same time, as many as three monsters rushed at Ethan, but there was no danger because no one could get past them. On the contrary, it's so amazing that it's not that hard to block, but it's clear that the monsters are being pushed back, so much so that my attention is taken away..
Karl Kansi, who had barely survived such an unfortunate incident, almost half-rolled to a halt in front of the castle gate, waving his arms and shouting at the city cavalry that seemed ready to rush out at any moment..
"Hey boy! stop! Stop! I don't need cover!!"
To be honest, I thought that the harsh words would come back, but I wonder how much formal training they received, and the cavalry only calmed down the galling horses and remained silent. While Karl Kansi, slightly embarrassed by the ridiculous quietness, was wondering whether to continue waving his arms or not, the cavalry split in half and someone appeared..
Horns and black hair grow from the sides of the head and upward through the forehead, drawing a flowing curve. Armor and barding painted in particularly dark black.
"Did Eldmia say anything??"
She was a saint of the Demon God Church that I had only heard about through rumors..
"Uh... Eldmia? That friend's name is Ethan...."
"...It is correct to refer to the warrior. So, what did you say??"
He was a warrior after all, and it was also an assumed name. Karl Kansi, smiling in a chilling mood, answered her saint's question with relief as his horse came running up from behind her..
"They told me to wait and watch."
There was no need for further explanation. Cal Kansi didn't know how that was possible, but he heard a monster scream, clearly deathly screaming..
When I turned my head, I saw Eldmia and the remaining monsters holding a half-broken sword that had just beheaded the monster. It was hard to see his expression because of his helmet, but after killing one, he left the two remaining monsters behind as if he had no regrets and started walking towards the castle gate..
The remaining monsters did not come after Eldmia. To be precise, they just keep tossing and turning their bodies and engaging in actions similar to self-harm. Karl Kansi, who understood that even that strange sight was the result of Eldmia's intention, clearly understood why he was walking leisurely now..
The hope that we can overwhelmingly ravage that overwhelming monster..
"...warrior."
"Holy woman."
While the saintess got off the horse and hesitated, she reached the castle gate and made her helmet disappear like magic. Eldmia calmly and naturally nodded her head in greeting and let out the breath that someone had been holding..
Aurors could be felt through study, but magic power was different, so Kal Kansi was very curious about how humans with magic power and divine power would look in the eyes of demons. Even if you don't see anything like that, in a situation that seems like it will become a legend, your own heart, which is completely unrelated, also starts to beat. How will the people involved feel??
Fortunately, that doubt didn't last long..
"I'm here to help."
As soon as he entered, the pieces of iron that flew in from beyond the castle gate, which began to close again, became one with the sword, which seemed to be half broken, and started to shine brightly. As soon as thunderous cheers broke out among the knights..
