Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 502

[502[Tuesday] Violence with a reason

When I saw the monster rushing at me as soon as I opened the gate, I wasn't surprised. Because I was already expecting it..

I wasn't surprised when the number of monsters increased to three instead of just one. This is because I already confirmed on the first day I entered Langie that just using esthetics can make them jump as if salt was sprinkled on their wounds..

In fact, those who could not endure pain struggled in the pain caused by the pieces of Este stuck in their bodies and easily gave up their heads. This was also expected, so I wasn't surprised when I heard the waiting cavalry cheering at the sight of me slaughtering them in an instant..

[I feel full of energy!]

I thought everything was going as expected..

[master! See and admire my usefulness!]

As soon as I had finished slaughtering ten Unlucky Hulks, I took Este's sudden, trembling cry too lightly..

"what? What are you talking about suddenly??"

[I'll show you when I get the distance! The power I gathered!]

Instead of getting on the horse, I grabbed Este and ran towards the Demon King's camp in the distance..

My role was not only to deal with the Unlucky Hulks, but also to close the distance with the Demon Lord's army in a short period of time and cause confusion so that they could not respond to the cavalry charge..

Of course, the faster you arrive at the enemy camp, the easier it will be for your troops to enter, so it was better to increase your speed and run on both feet, even if it was a little excessive, rather than riding a horse to narrow the distance..

[I will give you a taste of the power that Mother Ephakah showed you.!]

Now, I don't have to worry about tripping on a rock while sprinting and falling. Every time you take a step, the floor cracks, and even an awkward stone explodes just by stepping on it or kicking it. The result of adding divine protection through divine power on top of a body strengthened by magical power was truly incredible..

Maybe that's why I couldn't properly grasp the context of Este's sick words..

[ruler! master! Now raise your sword! like a lance!]

"Like this?"

[Then the side explodes! I have to stretch forward!]

In response to this very confident guy, I unconsciously put my sword close to my side and asked, and Este corrected me as if I was dumbfounded..

'Then it's not Lance.' Even though this thought was passing through my mind, I was curious about the source of his confidence and it was my mistake to obediently follow him. Este's excited voice echoed in her head as she stretched out her arms towards the Demon Lord's military formation..

[Sinbeol!]

Then, along with a heavy recoil, a familiar beam of light shot out in my hand, like a box of flashbangs exploding..

"Crazy, is this Master Spark?...!"

It was close to a gigantic energy cannon filled with divine power that had drawn a ray of light on the dark plain in the nick of time. Since there was no warning, I stopped walking for a moment due to the completely unexpected reaction, and even though I felt the ground shaking from our cavalry approaching from behind, I could not help but be astonished at the scene unfolding before my eyes..

[how is it! This is me!]

The land was not broken up. However, the snow and grass on the plain were sizzling as if a large heat ray had swept away, creating a long, long path..

And the road continued all the way to the Demon King's camp, creating a hole so clear that it could be seen even at night..

"Hey, I can use this any way I want.?"

Just as I was about to feel fear for the first time in the name of 'power' due to its power, which was so powerful that it even made my hair stand up, Este's answer came back with an extremely calm tone, as if the excitement from just now had gone..

[no? I can't use it anymore. I used up all my strength.]

"...what?"

I almost experienced cognitive dissonance for a moment because of the esthetician who calmly talked about serious topics as if they were no big deal..

I guess I was nervous too. For a moment, I thought Este was saying that she used her one-time super special move arbitrarily..

[What I collected from the city, what I took from those corroders, and even the powers that were not overflowing when Mother Epagar exercised her power. I wrote it all. I can’t use it until I fill it up again..]

Damn it. she was right.

"Hey you crazy! Why do you use it so arbitrarily?!?"

[Oh, it's the military! Make sure to control the baseline so the owner doesn't get hurt.!]

"Then at least aim for the command center.!"

[aha?]

It was my fault. It was my fault for not properly understanding where the universal common sense and knowledge of beauty treatment began and ended..

...Is this possible?!

"Phew... I'll see you after the battle.."

The fight hadn't even started yet, so there was no time to just sit back and feed Este..

In the end, all I could do now was run like a dog again and open the road..

◈

As for the result, the battle ended incredibly quickly and easily..

"...This is ridiculous.."

It was clear that there were flaws in the combat skills of the enemies stationed here, but the biggest reason was that the commander died without even realizing it right from the start..

Yes, that's right. The blind beam that Este shot really blew away the commander..

Because the commander disappeared so cleanly that no one even knew he was dead, most of the enemies wasted time looking for the person in charge, were swept away by our cavalry, and were then sandwiched and wiped out by our troops who came up from the coast..

"That changed the command center...?"

In fact, it was clear that it would have been an easy battle even if the chain of command had been intact. That's how low the enemies' skill level was. It seemed like it was because we relied too much on that twisted monster created from the remnants of an evil god..

Taking advantage of the despair of seeing the place where the command post, which I learned from the testimony of the surviving prisoners, was, I ran a magical chestnut onto the handle of Este, who was secretly bragging that she had done it. ) I went around the Demon King's camp and looked for Saint Deoni..

Although she rushed in with the horsemen, it was not that difficult to find the saint because she was alone wearing a pure white surcoat over armor as black as her hair. The saintess gathered the prisoners in one place and talked with the heresy judges and other important figures to decide on her treatment. When she spotted me, she lifted the visor of the helmet she was wearing and spoke brightly..

"I was already about to send someone to bring the hero. What on earth was that sacred ray of light??"

The burdensome gaze with her eyes sparkling as if she had witnessed a miracle was not unique to the saint. Everyone who was gathered showed great interest in the hero's secret weapon, but in the end, 'It was a secret weapon, but I used my sword as I wanted.' I had no choice but to crush their expectations by telling the truth..

"Well, I'm glad that I learned that not only can I destroy the apostates' witchcraft, but I can also create that type of miracle. I am once again convinced that the Demon God is looking down on us.."

'They were truly people of character who not only did not look at me like, 'Why now for such a precious thing...' but also defended it..

"Rather, a warrior? I have something to show you. Would you please come with me for a moment??"

Despite Este's shocking trolling, we stayed calm and followed the beckoning saint. The place we arrived at was a tent that was almost completely intact, unlike the surrounding area where everything was falling apart..

"I had no idea that there would be a tent in such good shape in a place where the command center was blown away.."

I even muttered in surprise at the sight of the heresy judges standing guard, and the saintess nodded slightly and walked towards the entrance of the tent..

"Luckily, they discovered it in advance and ordered soldiers to guard it. Let's go in."

The inside of the tent that followed was ordinary, but perhaps that was why one thing that seemed even more unusual caught my eye..

"Among the survivors who surrendered, there was one who served in the class that controls monsters. He calls himself a puppeteer and calls this magic tool his workshop.."

Looking at its appearance alone, it is closer to a modern mechanical device than a magic tool. There was also a small gas pump-like tool attached to the box with about twenty lamps and a complex of wires, levers, and buttons of unknown purpose..

"They say he used this to manipulate people before they turned into monsters and drag them away.."

"...You didn't turn into a monster willingly.."

"yes. They were classified as prisoners."

I thought it was strange. He was a demon lord who often said that he was fighting for freedom, as they said, but he thought that was different from crossing the river of no return..

If they weren't the same Unlucky Hulk, how would they manage the guys who attack first? I never thought they would have created a separate unit to manage them..

"...This must mean there are more units like this.."

"They say it was launched relatively recently. The number of unit members is not large yet as they are often involved in erosion during training, but it seems that there are at least ten units in operation.."

"What is the status of those classified as prisoners??"

"It seemed impossible to separate the magic tools they were wearing... but other than that, their health was just a little bad.."

I was lucky enough to kill the commander in one shot and save something close to the enemy's classified technology..

"The problem is... I can't make a decision. Should we capture it or destroy it?."

A magic tool that allows you to control the result of fusing the remnants of an evil spirit and the power of a sacred relic with magical power..

The saintess’s expression in front of a hideous object that could lead to further blasphemy was more serious than ever..

"...Let's take it. All."

At the very least, if it gets into the hands of allies, there is a possibility that they will be able to understand the principles of that abomination and neutralize the enemy..

However, if you destroy it here, one of the many magic tools will simply disappear. Fortunately, the saint nodded her head after a moment of consideration..
