Chapter 45

45Fire Death Knights

The truth of the world broken by the power of Fl, the god of dreams and death, was cruel..

The residents of the gate, which seemed alive and breathing, were dead, and General Ricardo and his knights were death knights..

Leon was stunned as he witnessed the truth..

"under! I wonder why she didn't notice. She wondered why she didn't realize it! I never thought it would be the power to create the world itself.!"

The gate itself was a dream..

"Ughhh…!"

General Ricardo and the knights who revealed their true selves in a broken dream. The creepy aura of the Death Knights is no longer hidden..

-Do not disturb the queen's rest.

-protect the queen.

The Skeleton Knights' hostility is directed at Leon. Even though he receives all the hostility, Leon is puzzled..

"He is not a corrupter steeped in malignancy. then…!"

Leon's sword was pointed at the queen. Her dreams are taken away and the energy of her corruption is felt in her..

The dream of this gate originated from her..

-Caen!

However, Ricardo Burns blocks Leon's blade... Death Knight's blade. His sword deflects Leon away from the sword aimed at the queen..

-Exclusion of hostile factors.

The gun is pointed at Ricardo. At that time, a Death Knight ran into Yappy..

"Hey Sir Yappy?!"

Yappy is pushed back by the Death Knight's raid. He responds by swinging a steel wire with his auxiliary arm..

Meanwhile, Ricardo's blade fiercely attacked Leon. A general who carries out strong attacks as if he will never get tired..

His sword was imbued with long experience and powerful energy. That power is truly A-level or higher. But he's not enough to reach Leon.

-Kaang!

As swords collide, a struggle of power begins. The general's sword trembles and exerts strength, but Leon's sword shows no signs of being pushed back..

"It's a great sword. Even if you become an undead, the sword you have honed to perfection is no different.."

However, he is no match for Leon. Leon is the pinnacle of those who have walked the path. Ricardo's sword is pushed further and further away. When the sword finally dug into my shoulder.

"B-turn it on…!"

"General-nim!"

Swords stabbing with voices that sound like boiling phlegm. The passing of the two knights deflects Leon's sword..

Leon's expression showed anger at their joint attack..

"It's a one-on-one duel! Are you willing to betray your knightly honor?!"

Leon saw pride in their swords. He felt the honor of the knights who walked the degrees. That's why I get even more angry.

"The sword of a warrior and the sword of a knight must be different.!"

Despite Leon's words, Ricardo and the knights' swords had no hesitation..

"Honor was abandoned long ago.!"

"Queen-Her Highness... for!"

I couldn't understand the cry.

Aren't they the ones who imprisoned and imprisoned the queen??

The queen even personally asked him to kill her knights..

for a moment? Kill the knights? Why did the queen make such a request??

As Leon accepted the knights' approval, he stared at the queen lying on the bed..

The queen, who radiates blatant corruption and tempts creatures, still…….

'It's not a malignant tumor?'

As the dream was taken away, the knights revealed their true colors. But the queen still has vibrant skin and beautiful looks..

Unlike the devils of lust who have an ugly appearance.

"You guys! What have you done! What have you done to the queen?!"

"I made a deal with the devil, Lionheart King.."

Kingdom of Spero.

They too, like Leon's world, were being invaded by demons..

It was the current Queen Beatrice who led the kingdom's army against the oncoming forces of evil..

However, they were unable to overcome the demons' onslaught, and in the end, Androgyne, the great devil of pleasure, reached out to the queen, who was on the verge of destruction..

[Queen. Your courage is amazing. Don't make a deal.]

[transaction…?]

[Embrace the essence of corruption and repeat the fall of the kingdom for a hundred years. If you do not fall, I will spare you and your people..]

The queen of a kingdom that was already facing destruction had no choice but to accept it. Even though it was the devil's trap.

repeat destruction.

The war against the devil was repeated every year..

I was able to endure it at first..

Even if you are killed by demons, you can be resurrected in the next year and endure again..

[Kihihihi…!]

But what they were dealing with was the great devil of pleasure. They violated and violated the people and soldiers..

They corrupted and destroyed their minds with endless pleasure and torture..

Even the soldier who lasted the longest did not last more than three years..

[I… what did i do…….]

Queen Beatrice, realizing what she had done, found a way, but the devil's trap was cunning and cunning. There were no loopholes in the deal she had already accepted..

she was going crazy.

During the day, I had to watch the demons slaughter the people, and at night, the corrupters whispered..

[Because of you. I died because of you.]

[Be corrupt. embrace pleasure.]

The sight of her kingdom being destroyed and the essence of corruption implanted in her body constantly tempted the queen..

When it had been more than 50 years, when the loyal knight could not withstand the queen's temptation and sneaked into the bedroom—General Ricardo Burns made a decision..

[commit suicide.]

In the repetitive world, self-determination was strictly prohibited. Androgyne did not make a dent in suicide, even when committing suicide on his own or with the help of others..

[Those who commit suicide to avoid the contract will forever be ghosts wandering the nine heavens! The moment the hundred-year deal ends, you will become servants of corruption.!]

Nevertheless, Ricardo Burns and the 37 knights chose suicide..

Protect the queen and be loyal to the queen. This is because I knew that the oath I swore when I became a knight of the kingdom would never be fulfilled while I was alive..

The Queen's charm did not work on those who died and became Death Knights, and they sealed the Queen away..

"Even that seal was just a half-day ritual that put people to sleep since 80 years ago.."

"……."

Leon groaned while listening to Ricardo’s story..

What kind of loyalty is this?.

Their loyalty surprised even the Lionheart King. However…….

"That's why the queen asked Jim to kill you guys.."

To prevent his knights from becoming servants of demons.

"The queen knows. She knew she wouldn't last long."

"no-! The queen will endure-oh! Next 5 years! All you have to do is endure it for 5 more years! He is able to do it!"

"How can a knight judge the judgment of a monarch? Your loyalty is admirable, but it is not loyalty.!"

"Don't you judge my loyalty!"

General Ricardo's sword strikes. Even the sword that was thrown with all his might was caught by Leon with one hand..

Leon reaches out to him with empty hands. The arm stretched out with the intention of ripping off the head is stopped by the stabbing sword..

"Tsk."

Leon withdraws his arm and steps back. Behind him, two knights swing their swords sideways..

-Kyaang!

Leon stretches the holy sword backwards to block it. He kicks the charging General Ricardo and throws him away..

"This me... ! Even if it’s a joint attack, do you think you can stop it?!"

Everyone knows.

The power of this monster was clearly witnessed in the battle against demons..

Even excluding the Holy Law, a monster who has achieved superhuman status with only physical abilities. A knight among knights. knight of night.

"Forgive rudeness!"

One of the Death Knights swung his sword sharply. An attitude solely aimed at increasing strength. It's too crude to be a sword wielded by a knight..

Leon did not miss the opportunity. The blade of the holy sword stabbed straight into the Death Knight's empty side. however──

-Gang!

The Death Knight's shield blocks Leon's sword. The next moment, the Death Knight's sword swings at Leon..

"Pfft…!"

Barely brushing it aside. A strand of golden hair was cut off..

'Did you deliberately create an opening and attack?!'

A bold attack assuming that a fellow knight will block it. I can feel that strong trust in him too..

"khaap!"

The attacks continue. Just when you think you've dodged a spear swinging from a blind spot, you'll be tackled from behind..

Even without giving him space to swing his sword, he throws his whole body to push Leon away to give his colleague a chance to attack..

Leon catches the violently colliding Death Knight and throws him to the floor. The moment you raise your sword to deliver the final blow, a sharply forged spear stabs you..

-Gang!

The sound of the impact was loud, like a cannon exploded..

"nice…!"

I barely managed to block the spear's blow with the blade, but my trembling hands were unable to absorb the shock..

'You're strong.'

If it were the Lionheart Kingdom, it would be at a level where it could walk the path of training to reveal the honor of the goddess..

There is no doubt that each and every one of them is a famous knight who displayed his mighty skills..

'Rather, his capabilities must have weakened as he became undead..'

Knights of this caliber boast pure and refined swordsmanship. If you become undead, your physical strength may have increased, but your delicacy, which is your strongest skill, will inevitably decrease..

"Still, is it this capable? great!"

General Ricardo Burns looked down at Leon from the head of the knights..

"We are the leading knights of the Spero Kingdom. A royal rank within the title of queen. Over the course of a hundred years, we became stronger and united more tightly.!"

Only for the protection of the queen.

How can these loyal knights be called evil ghosts?.

"Well done, knights. You have preserved honor and pride that go beyond what a knight deserves. However……."

Leon placed the Holy Sword inside the Holy Grail. Before he knew it, he was holding a large jousting spear in his hand..

"What is before you is the history of the 300-year war of Lionheart. Can you bear this weight??"

"What nonsense……."

"Take this mass. If you do that, I'll admit it.."

Stallion.

A white horse that responds to Leon’s call. He rides on Mengwoo's back and widens the distance from the Death Knights..

"chase!"

However, the Death Knights also summoned ghost horses. Ghost horses who share the death of their owners and wander the Nine Heavens chase Stallion..

"Big?!"

"fast!"

However, the ghost horses could not chase Stallion. This divine beast, given by the goddess of light and justice, is different from her lineage..

The ghost horses could only stare blankly at the white horse that quickly widened the distance between them..

And the moment the distance widens, the rider's head turns in the opposite direction. Anyone can know this.

-charge…!

-coming…!

The cavalry's greatest and strongest blow. Charging.

"In Lionheart... ! Glory be to you!!"

A horseman kicking the ground while raising his holy spear. In response, the knights charge in unison..

one to thirty-seven.

One Knight King and 37 Knights.

At the moment of clash, the knights realized their fate..

-Qua!

With the first collision, the leading knight flew into the sky. It was with a ghost horse..

Even in the second collision, Stallion's momentum did not decrease at all. Two rows of Death Knights flew out..

"Wow?!"

Even though the three rows of Death Knights only passed by the Shinma, they were unable to hold on to their words..

-Wow!!

Ricardo rolled on the ground and immediately raised his sword. I realized that his opponent's breakthrough ability was beyond common sense..

In that case, there is no room to thoroughly charge in hand-to-hand combat, just mark.!

"No…!"

Ricardo looked around and saw that all his fellow knights had fallen miserably. That's right. At this moment of impact, Ricardo was the only one who pulled his body out and withstood the impact..

'With just one charge... They destroyed our queen's bodyguard in one fell swoop.?!'

Even his hardened skin shook at the shocking fact. Leon's holy spear penetrates under Ricardo's chin..

"Wake up from a fleeting dream."

"lion heart king…!"

Where on earth did this monster appear? Why did such a powerful being appear now?.

"We-I…!"

He has not yet extinguished the flame of resistance. Loyalty to repeat and end her queen's time and save her moved his body, which had long since become her messenger..

"If you can't wake up from a dream, live forever in a vain illusion. Foolish knight."

It was the moment when the window was about to hit..

creepy

Magi that makes your skin flutter.

Leon immediately realized that an evil group with the most evil energy was approaching..

"Are they evil species?!"

Are they already gathering their forces and marching forward? Leon was able to deal with Ricardo first and then go. Leon didn't do that..

"Stand up! Soldiers of the Lionheart King! How long are you going to sleep like an idiot?!"

A roar that makes the cavity resound. It woke up the soldiers who had fainted..
