Chapter 135
135Mars Holy Grail Knight Antork(2)
The soil of the wilderness turns into a plain of steel..
Although they had witnessed the brutal violence of the Holy Grail Knights many times, the miracle before their eyes was enough to leave even the demon lord Karakael in shock..
A miracle that rewrites the world. If it were just a matter of turning earth and sand into steel, it would have been a bit of a fancy magic show..
but.
This is not just a trick.
[Monarch. That is──]
The landscape changed with the Iron Oath. And Antalk has changed somewhere.
Something strengthened his body. If you look at it from a magical perspective, it would be interpreted that way..
But that alone can't be used against you..
[Surely that won't be the end?.]
Karakael saw a human being as small as an insect on the ground. However, he was wary of a presence that made even the demon lord himself nervous..
It is prepared for the enemy's actions by layering a layer of top-level magic barrier that would astonish even the magician queen. But Karakael felt uncomfortable..
"Get off first."
[────!!]
The next moment, Karakael and Caster of Prajna realized that they were being pulled by something..
An overwhelming pressure on a different level from planetary gravity. It causes the great demons flying with its wings to crash..
-Kwaaaaang!
All the evil beings that flew arrogantly in the sky fell to the ground..
Reversal of gravity? generation of manpower?
No, it's not like that kind of physical law..
Holy Grail Knight. They are law changers. They rewrite the laws of the world according to the divinity they believe in..
[Is it iron and blacksmithing?.]
I understand. Kara Kael raised his magical power with will..
Alchemy <Shape change>
Accessories containing ‘iron’ hung all over his body. Changes the properties of all kinds of artifacts.
Just now, each and every artifact that was a dimensional treasure was reduced to a useless accessory..
[Lord,…!]
Great devils who change the properties of the accessories on their bodies to follow the monarch. These were artifacts that they put a lot of effort into making, but there is nothing they can do about it..
All the ‘iron’ in this sacred place is under its control..
[Indeed, you are quick to judge. You evil species.]
The timbre of the voice was not human..
Not only has the appearance changed, but even the contents have changed..
By putting a god in a human body, he gained the characteristics of a demi-god..
sex law──
The eyes of the great devils are filled with astonishment..
Until now, the holy power of the Holy Grail Knights had been radiated mainly from within their own bodies..
But now, that knight is moving the scenery itself and emitting infinite holy power..
Truly a miracle. It is the beginning of a miracle that seems to have gathered the holy power of the whole world..
<Heto's Hammer>
A flashing hammer is swung. Accordingly, the hammer carved in the landscape falls directly towards the demons..
Anti-Magic <Shield of Amancha>
The barrier developed by the five great devils is truly a sturdy barrier. An invincible wall that never seems to break. however──
-Boom!
The hammer crushed the Caster of Prasna through a wall. With one strike, the two great demons exploded in a horrific manner..
[what…!]
[It's impossible.!]
The demon of wisdom and exploration, the lord of magic. Among them, absolute defense based on a perfect calculation formula completed after tens of thousands of years of research by wise men with the highest level of magical power..
He broke not one, but five of them at the same time.?
My whole body trembles from the terrible attack that makes me want to deny reality. She doesn't last the second time. Above all, even those who survived the blow just now feel like their insides have been shaken..
It's terrifyingly strong. How can mortals who cannot live for less than a thousand years have such great power?.
[Amazing.]
Meanwhile.
The Lord of Wisdom is alive and well.
[…….]
Antok clicked his tongue at the survival of the demon he struck down with a direct hit. The great demons around were crushed to death, but the one that took the direct hit didn't even get a scratch..
The moment the destructive power of absolute strength wielded with the concept of iron collided with that barrier, its nature changed..
From a change in the law to a mere mighty blow.
[Let's get started. It is a prelude to the worst decisive battle of the century that has not yet begun..]
With Karakael's hand gesture, the magic circle engraved in the sky was activated..
* * * *
-Kieeeeeeek!
-move forward!
The forces of evil cry out. advance.
-Fight back!
-Hold on until the magic is complete.!
The army of justice cries out. defense.
-Kwakakakakakakakakak!!
A pouring blade of magic strikes the ground..
It seemed that no living thing could survive in the intensity of magical power unleashed by demon lords and great demons..
Seongbeop <Kangcheolhwa>
Holy Law <Blessing of Flame>
However, the sacred power of this land is as full as the magical power..
[Smash it to pieces.!!]
The Holy Grail Knight, who accepted Heto, the god of iron and blacksmithing, takes the lead and destroys the enemy. The aftermath of swinging the hammer at the demon lord alone is disaster enough for them..
"……."
Beatrice watched them and formed a magic circle..
Confrontation between a demon lord and a god.
A fierce battle between demons and free people who are swept away and killed in the aftermath alone..
In a fierce battle where strong artificial intelligence declared that the odds of winning were zero, they were blooming a flower called a miracle..
Even if the flower does not fully bloom.
As if the odds are somehow good.
'It's definitely gotten more comfortable.'
Beatrice's magic circle was still building a simple gate to jump through space..
Originally, it was a magic that could not even be established due to Karakael's intervention. However, the Lord of Wisdom cannot pay attention to this because he is engaged in a fierce battle with the divinity of iron and blacksmithing..
"Sir Yappy. How is the work progressing??"
-86%proceed until.
Beatrice was in such a hurry that she entrusted the magic circle to Yapi, which she would have originally created with her own hands from start to finish..
However, we do not abandon caution for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If all you want to do is draw a magic circle, just trust Yappy to perfectly reproduce it under the data..
"The moment you deploy the magic circle, he will notice it. We need a way to buy time until Lord Antok returns.."
-proposal.
Yapi explained the plan to Beatrice, and she nodded..
"The probability of success is?"
"2.714%."
"It's much better than before."
Desperately low odds. However, knights are willing to throw themselves towards the cliff of 0%. then──
"As a magician who is supposed to be cool-headed, this is something I shouldn't say... … Let's pray for a miracle."
She is also a miracle being. Because she was a saint who served God.
* * * *
Karakael's magic pours out.
Every single one of them was a disaster.
A feast of great magic that feels like seeing the earth collapse and the sky split, literally the end of the world..
A terrible disaster that humans cannot endure is depicted with just his hand gestures..
[You're strong.]
However, the Holy Grail Knight stands against this. No, the hammering of the blacksmith, who is divine itself, crushes the demon lord's magic..
The striking lightning is absorbed and thrown away with the hammer, and the flames rising from the ground are blocked by the iron earth..
There is a saint in front of me who continues to fight miraculous battles at every moment..
Indeed, the strongest species in the dimension. The strongest creature on earth, feared even by demons.
In the Plain of Landolce, the Prince of Glacier may choose to flee..
If even the Holy Grail Knight at the bottom is like this, then what kind of monster is the Holy Grail Guardian, the pinnacle of it all?.
[The pinnacle of you guys must have the power to take down a monarch..]
I admit it. Their strength. But that's why this invasion was right.
If these monsters increased in number and eventually spread their divinity throughout the dimension, the demons would not be able to endure and would be defeated..
What is the dimension in which the humans whom the gods love so much exist?.
It was worth loving, it was worth being strong. However──
[It's not enough. You can't reach me.]
Ultimately, we are human. The vessel is too small to contain the entire mighty power of divinity..
[The analysis has finally come to an end. die.]
It was when Karakael was about to fire his deadly magic..
-Many, Many, Many!
A mechanical body took advantage of the chaos of the battlefield and approached. It was the star-iron body of the Yacht Spinner that Karakael must have pierced..
-Self-destruct sequence begins. Forced core runaway.
At that moment, Yapi's fuselage forced its power reactor into runaway. A nuclear fission reaction that far exceeds the technological capabilities of Earth humans..
-Kuwaaaaaa!!
Enormous heat and explosions hit Karacael. In an instant, the light from the explosion covered the world and obscured our vision..
[A nuclear explosion... With this primitive prank!]
Karakael performed magic with his right hand, but also performed a new magic with his left finger..
A vast explosion is compressed and confined, as if being sucked into something..
Compressing something like a simple thermal explosion is as easy for him as breathing. You'd have to have at least the spark of divinity to hit him..
A single finger magic is enough, such as low-level nuclear fission..
──────!!
[Hmm?]
It was then. Capturing the crack that distorts space is.
[Lord! They opened the gate!]
Indeed, was it like that? Karakael stared at the silver woman who opened the gate..
Did you understand the gate principle well in human subjects?.
[You're thinking of running away with him..]
There will be very few people who can move through a short-distance jump gate or something like that..
Karakael noticed..
The authors are thinking of abandoning all the soldiers and knights here..
[What a rude district. Did you think you could escape from me?.]
Intervene at the gate. At best, even the short-distance jump gate opened by Beatrice can be closed immediately with Karacael's magic. but──
"Destroy the evil species!!"
"Protect it with your life!!"
The sacred law of flame swings towards Karakael. That's not all. Knights who throw spears filled with holy power at Karakael with strengthened holy techniques thanks to the abundant holy power of this land..
[Even the things that were abandoned…!]
Karakael blocked their javelins and released the compressed heat energy in his left hand. With the addition of magical power, a terrible explosive power that can be called a mana nuclear explosion strikes them..
[It's late. However──]
Thanks to this, I couldn't close the gate. Kara Kael extends her right hand, which was creating magic just a moment ago..
Paang! do.
Death rays rushed towards those throwing themselves towards the gate..
* * * *
A crack appears in the middle of the city and a door opens..
"Phew…!"
-Kikluk!
What poured out inside were three people and words..
"success… You did it!"
Beatrice was relieved that she had barely survived the limb she had suffered a moment ago..
Yapi also updated the database in response to this miraculous achievement..
"hmm……."
-Kikluk?
A moaning sound captured by a high-performance sound system. The pounding heartbeat that I had been aware of until just now became weaker..
"Lord Antok?"
Beatrice also notices something strange and stares at him..
The Grail Knight of Iron and Blacksmith stood firm. Even though there was a huge hole in my heart.
"I guess… It wasn't perfect."
Antok scratched his head despite the blood flowing down in front of him..
"Lord Antok! Get treatment quickly…!"
Beatrice tried to help him, but Antok blocked her with a wave of his hand..
"Go to the blacksmith shop."
"yes?"
-Kikluk?
Even as the two people were puzzled, Antok walked hurriedly towards the blacksmith shop. Holding the fragments of the moon recovered at the cost of the lives of the special forces..
When he arrived, he picked up the hammer in the blacksmith shop without paying attention to the sound of the blacksmith priests' flagships..
"From now on. Smelt star iron."
-Not possible. Your life will soon stop.
"It was decided from the moment divinity descended into mortal status.."
It was a miracle that anyone but a living demigod with a lion's heart should have dreamed of. He was only able to maintain that brief miracle because he was a living saint..
To put it another way, this fleeting moment. Antok is a ‘demigod about to die’.
"The iron knight made of steel. The time allowed for this teacher is limited, and he only has one chance to teach his students.."
-…….
"Let me show you. This is my first and last teaching."
Antok picked up the hammer..
-Kyaang!
"I set out on a journey to receive a quest..
Even if the missing heart cannot produce oxygen.
-Kyaang!
"In the process, he met the future Lionheart King and together they went on an honorable journey.."
Even if my trembling arms can't give strength to the hammer.
-Kyaang!
"I was taught by and challenged the greatest blacksmith.."
Even if your blood-stained eyes can't even see what's in front of you.
-Kyaang!
"In the end, I could not surpass him, but the knights with my sword cut down the kingdom's enemies, and the knights with my spear defended the kingdom.."
It doesn't stop. Slowly but intensely, as if engraving each movement..
-Kyaang!
Refining iron with divine will.
History is contained in all his actions..
"I shared the glory with the greatest Lion-Hearted King, was loved by God, and enjoyed unsurpassed honor.."
The hammering continues..
His blurred vision now turns to the next blacksmith..
"Put your faith in iron. Imagine the future you can create with the hammering of a hammer. The sword you make will cut through the kingdom's enemies, and the armor you make will protect your comrades.."
throw a hammer A very old, worn out and blackened hammer contained the history of a blacksmith..
"A weapon is a tool for killing, but when wielded by the right person, it becomes a shield to protect the world.."
I hope that the sword and shield you make will protect the world..
The holy power that was overflowing in his body dissipates. The vitality he had forcibly maintained disappeared, and his hair turned blazing white..
His crumbling body did not fall as it leaned against someone else's body..
"……."
I feel the heartbeat.
I feel my body temperature.
Antok knew who it belonged to..
"Is it Sir Leon?……."
"That's right. Lord Antok."
"To be held in the arms of a man... If Gildus had seen she would have been disgusted."
"Who would doubt someone who also has children?."
"That too."
"Your son... Do you have anything to say to Arenne??"
"……."
Antok was lost in thought for a moment at those words..
He was a great father, a caring family man, and an outstanding teacher..
He gave his son love, respect, and teachings. What more is there to say?──
"Until the end. Defend the kingdom, protect the king!"
It's just his attitude toward life throughout his life..
"……."
Leon sighed as the flame of his close friend extinguished in his arms..
"Take it easy on your last words."
King Leon's 85th year.
Lord Antok, Grail Knight of Iron and Blacksmithing.
ascension.
