Chapter 123
123angry parasite
Lee Yong-wan entered the demon castle and shot high-ranking demons as soon as he saw them..
Originally, the primary role of archers in a raid was to snipe enemy long-range troops..
However, thanks to the corps formation method developed by Leon, ranged weapons do not work on this side, but this side can be used freely..
In this vicious close combat, the archers were naturally able to limit their targets..
papad!
A barrage of arrows being fired. Arrows loaded with magic cannot be compared to medieval archers. Especially when it comes to S-class hunter Lee Yong-wan, each and every arrow is like a tank gun..
"Kuwaaaaaa!!"
A demonic monster that runs silently even after being hit by a barrage of arrows from Lee Yong-wan. It was a Blood Minotaur, a high-level demon..
"Jersey failed! Breaking through head on!"
"What stubbornness…!"
Lee Yong-wan, who knew the terrible penetration power of monster infantry, fired an additional arrow, but was unable to stop the Blood Minotaur, which crouched low and charged at him at full speed..
'Damn it, I need to get to the front and make sure I get it right!'
Uncharacteristic of an archer, he went to the forefront and attempted to eliminate the enemy shock infantry..
However, in a field where thousands of armies clash, it is difficult for even an S-class hunter to do well..
'It's late!'
That was when Yongwan remembered that the leading hunters would be torn apart..
"For the shield!"
A man's voice booms from the front. The voices that follow unite in unison..
""For the shield!!""
Shields erected at the forefront. The Men at Arms of the pantheon, including leader Kim Do-han, raise their shields in an orderly manner..
And the impact of the upper-level demon Blood Minotaur. The leading soldiers flew backwards as if they were thrown out, but that was all..
"Hold on…!"
The Blood Minotaur's charge only pushed back the lead infantry and did not fulfill its role of breaking through the formation..
"Craaaa…!"
The devil violently tries to push away while it has already stopped. However, dozens of hunters in the back row hold on by pushing each other's backs with their shields..
"Well done!"
It was right then. A series of horsemen galloping through the complex castle grounds quickly broke through the demons' flanks. A red-haired girl jumped from a horse and swung a sword of seething flames..
-Shut up!
Dengurrrrrrr, the devil’s head tumbles down. Hari, who cut off the thick minotaur's neck with a single sword, crossed eyes with Lee Yong-wan..
"oh! Guild leader Lee Yong-wan! hello!"
Hari nods and says hello. Lee Yong-wan responded awkwardly..
"Uh, Assistant Manager Han.."
"The battle is urgent! I'll greet you again later!"
Perhaps because of his position as an employee of the Hunter Association, Hari, who greeted everyone he passed, soon got on his horse and went to the next battle site..
"Why are you looking so blank??"
The voice coming from behind me is Hayuri. Where did she get it from, she was holding a bunch of demons by their necks..
"What are those necks??"
"Demon wizards. They say if you bring a lot of supplies from the pantheon, you will be rewarded.."
"……."
The eyes of the devil rolling his head around even after his head was cut off are grotesque. But he has no reason to tackle.
There was a message that high-level demons often do not die even if their heads are cut off, so save up as much supply as possible..
I'm sure they'll pile them all up and burn them alive like a human sacrifice..
21Tragedies that would have been unimaginable to the civilized people of the century naturally come to mind when interacting with the medieval Lion-Hearted King..
"Rather… It's no joke."
"what?"
"Pantheon Hunters. Most of them are probably C grade.."
"If you just look at the potential, it's almost B grade. If you look at the performance alone, it's as good as a class A attack team.."
strong.
The center of activity in this siege was undoubtedly the Hunters of the Pantheon..
"Lower level hunters are simply tough. If your strength is not enough, you can block it by adding the strength of your colleagues. There won't be many guys who can break through that solid square head-on.."
"What it lacks in attack power, it makes up for with the breakthrough power of special units such as the Holy Grail Knight and the Knights.."
it was like an army.
The maximum for existing hunters was a 100-person attack force. Excluding human historical crises such as the Black Gate, basically, small scale with 20 people, small and medium scale with 50 people, and large scale with 100 people..
However, the pantheon is entered in units of 1,000. The pantheon's enormity is already at the level of an army, considering that the power brought in now is not all-out power..
And the analogy was literally true..
Flexible troop management amid thorough military strength and a wide pool of talent. A form suited to war rather than strategy..
'It's not that I didn't think of it as a different guild..'
It was just not realistically possible..
First of all, it was a sigh of relief to take C- or D-level hunters, and more than anything, there was a problem of 'distribution'..
Ultimately, the reason hunters attack the gate is money..
Dig up magic stones, acquire expensive items, and post them on the auction house. Sharing the resulting profits is the basis of the hunter attack team..
However, it is impossible for Class C and D hunters to even allocate this distribution percentage. Because it is not helpful in battle..
At best, it's a daily wage system, but even low-level hunters make better money by working as a team leader than working for a low daily wage..
'How on earth can they become so strong and belong to a group??'
From what I heard, they are often infamous for being called Sibjoni or Sugar Salt Water, but why can they fight so loyally??
"Is it religion?……."
"What are you trying to do??"
"grunt……."
Lee Yong-wan was unable to answer Ha Yu-ri’s question. It was a time when I was pulling a bow to organize my hair that was getting complicated..
-Quang! Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
""……………??!!"
A heavy drink that instantly drowns out the battlefield where spears and swords clash and the cries of battle are rampant..
The hunters and demons who had been stabbing each other a moment ago also naturally turned their gaze upward..
-Quang! Kwakwakwak!!
The center of the castle. Something is happening on the top floor.
At first, I thought it was Yacht Spinner's bombardment or Beatrice's magic bombardment..
However, the frequency of successive binge drinking was different. The magnitude of binge drinking and the vibration of oppression are different..
Can something like this be accomplished with a few hits from a rail gun or a magic bomb? All living things within the castle came to a natural conclusion..
something is fighting.
Something huge is violently crashing into each other..
"Uh, uhh……."
A shock wave strong enough to calm even beast-type demons. They froze, unable to control their trembling hands..
Castle watchtower to the east, animal breeding area to the west, plaza in the center.
A dizzying explosion of sound coming from all directions of the vast Demon Castle. shock wave. A powerful presence created by the aftermath of a crash.
All the living people present do nothing but stare in bewilderment..
You realize it instinctively.
If we marched any further,
If I retreat any further,
I'm getting caught up in it.
This is what happens when shrimp explode in a whale fight..
"Hee, hee hee……."
"As expected, run away…!?"
"It is the king's official residence. Don't make a fuss, you dirty things.."
""……………!!!??""
At some point, without even realizing it, the man is in the middle of a legion of demons..
A feeling of pressure pressing down from the top of my head. Even a bug exposed to the gaze of an apex predator would have been better than this..
'Also, I have to run away.…….'
'but… If you move you die!'
Absolute presence. The horrors of all evil species are before your eyes..
And the other side. Even in the camp of men it stands.
"iced coffee……?"
10teenage girl. A young girl facing adulthood, but everyone noticed. That girl holding the Wandering Demon Sword is definitely the Demon Grand Duke..
When everyone is unable to move due to a feeling of intimidation that borders on violence, two people turn to each other. The next moment, they clashed.
────!!
The ground that you step on with force is crushed and a crater is formed.,
The shock wave caused by the two swords colliding causes numerous heads to be blown away..
The footprints left by two people clashing dance with the screams of the devil in the background..
'Neither holy laws nor magic are used.!'
'This is possible with just pure sword fighting.?'
At this point, it's like a hobbit sitting right underneath a tap dancing giant. While everyone is shocked by this myth war, the two prosecutors frown as if they are dissatisfied..
'It's the best body. Young, innocent, and with great potential..'
Akasha was extremely satisfied by taking over Cheon So-yeon's body..
Although the physical development is disappointing, it can be replaced with vast magical power..
What is important is this body’s sword skills. There is no one who can compare to this among the magicians of all time..
Indeed, the successor of Korea's best sword, Gwanggeomja. It seems that talent in this family is passed down through generations..
'Nevertheless…….'
Even though he has acquired such a superb body, his opponent does not fall..
6Even though he is freely using all the sword techniques he has absorbed from the Great Demons, Leon manages to block them..
Is it possible??
Even in swordsmanship, there is compatibility. Leon's swordsmanship is only a straight, sharp sword. I've used a lot of Sangseong's sword techniques, but I can't even reach that thin skin..
Quick Swordsmanship <Evil Snake>
The snake's fangs stabbed Leon's sword in a defensive stance, dizzyingly changing its trajectory..
It was about to stab Leon's chest, which had a lot of space, but at that moment, the raised blade scratched the pommel of the magic sword and blocked it..
The next moment, Leon's bare hand grabs the blade of the holy sword..
After being confident that the palm would not be cut, the half-sword he held crushed the magic sword and turned it downwards, while at the same time cutting his thigh with the tip of the sword..
"hmm…!"
Akasha steps back. Blood flowed from her thigh where she was cut by the holy sword..
"Simple - great! Are you good at other tricks as well?."
It is truly a sword of upright chivalry that has lived up to the standard of standards. From the accumulated experience to the skill that changes in the field,.
It is natural for a Holy Grail Knight to be called a Sword Master, but Leon is the best among them..
"Amazing—that’s great. A mere human being can rival the devil in technology.."
"You were on the wrong path from the beginning.."
"What?"
Akasha's gaze sharpens at Leon's humiliation. Leon stared straight at the Great Duke of Slaughter who was wearing Cheon So-yeon's shell..
"200About a year ago, you had a proper body. I don't know if he lost his body somehow... Compared to then, it has become noticeably weaker.."
"That's right - of course──"
"Parasite. What the King is referring to is not the size of your power, but the skills you have accumulated.."
"……."
Akasha looked like she had hit the nail on the head..
Yes, he was definitely stronger 200 years ago than he is now. He once competed for the title of Lord of Carnage and Destruction.
But the other side of Lionheart. He lost his body in the great battle that took place in the East..
"If you just lost your body, how could you not have that skill left? So the king guesses. You guys are just storing your accumulated skills in your body.?"
"……."
That's right. Akasha gives swords to swordsmen all over the world and leads them to destruction..
In the end, when the mortal body could not handle the demonic energy, it was swallowed up along with the essence of the technique..
A sword demon that can grow endlessly and infinitely. That is the essence of the devil called Akasha.
Experience does not accumulate for this demon, who is essentially a mind. Skills are not acquired. The soul does not grow.
"Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…!"
"What—that’s funny?"
"Parasite. Isn’t this why the King has no choice but to call you a parasite? After seeing the swords of so many swordsmen... You're such an idiot that you haven't even mastered your sword skills.."
What should we call something like this other than a parasite?.
Akasha burst into blazing anger at Leon's sincere ridicule..
"Don't be shy. For humans who have lived only 300 years at most!"
The next moment, the magic sword with explosive force swung towards Leon. The pressure of pure power without any swordplay or anything like that. That weighs down Leon..
"You will be defeated, and all evil wishes for your destruction.."
"No, Jim never loses.."
The magic sword that was weighing down is slowly lifted. The golden holy sword actually pushed Akasha away and crushed her..
'In a power struggle... Losing to humans?'
This is his territory. Everything on this earth backs itself up. But why is Leon’s sword so heavy??
Leon said.
"On Jim's shoulders, the myths of the pantheon of eternity are together. Burden is unwavering justice.."'
Justice is not defeated. In the face of that vague declaration, there was no resistance that could be offered..
"Ugh~ Ugh…!"
I'm pushed. If this continues, you will be cut. But before he feared death, he couldn't help but spew out the absurdity of the bastard's existence..
"vs, che… Where - a monster like you……."
"not a monster."
Leon extended one hand holding the sword. Akasha's eyes widened..
"He is the lion-hearted king.."
The outstretched arm broke the purple earring..
* * * *
"…………."
Akasha was in endless darkness.
The darkness of the abyss, where not even a single ray of light can be seen. Is a mixture of faint purple a unique color in this world??
"This place… Where is it?"
At that moment, Akasha realized that her voice was flowing the way she wanted..
This is the first time I feel my own full voice, not the unnatural voice that forces the mouth of a parasite to open..
Before I could admire it, they appeared out of the darkness..
[Hehehe… Wasn't she taught by her mother that she shouldn't pick up anything and eat anything??]
[My avenger kept his promise.]
An ominous being filled with only darkness, without the beautiful purple beauty and facial features. She has a dark haired girl in the middle of it.
"Soyeon Cheon…!"
How is that over there? Cheon So-yeon cut off the conversation before the question could be said out loud..
"Is this enough??"
[Yes, how could she refuse what my Leon asked for?.]
Fl, the goddess of dreams and death, smiled and said.
Like most gods, they had infinite favor and affection for Leon and willingly accepted any number of requests to borrow the power of a god for one of their ‘squires.’.
[The soul of the Demon Grand Duke. I have change left over.]
The evil spirit of darkness and vengeance was convinced that it was a satisfactory deal..
"Please let me go. I don't want to stay here even for one second more."
[Leave the rest to me and this. I can hear my new director feeling a little disappointed..]
[This year's four new directors are strange bitches. You can't believe you're using your 'dreams' for that purpose..]
[That's why I like it even more. Aren’t our children somewhat model students?.]
Amid the chatter of the gods, Akasha found herself completely ignored. His anger is directed at Cheon So-yeon..
"Hold me! I will give you the power to destroy and kill everything!"
"……."
Cheon So-yeon winked for a moment at Akasha's proposal, which was almost like a struggle, and then stretched out her hand..
Well then. The temptation of power works for everyone. As long as you're human, there's no way you can forsake the devil's temptation.──
Contrary to Akasha's expectations, the middle finger gradually rises..
Cheon So-yeon said.
"Fuck you, you parasite.."
With that, Soyeon disappeared in the darkness created by the gods..
