Chapter 94
94Mars Holy Grail Knight Zereah(5)
800km above the ground. Yapi closely examined the surrounding terrain, the movements of living things, and everything else..
-Lionheart Kingdom border. Floating so far.
After encountering the red knight, I stopped paying attention to his movements..
This is because Yapi is not moving in all the places he knows, as if there are special restrictions..
Unless you know the conditions under which those forces operate, it is dangerous to contact them hastily..
-There is a lot of movement along the imperial border..
As far as Yapi knows, the Empire is an uneasy ally of Lionheart..
Even though the so-called 'non-believers' are prospering, they are still the same human forces of good. Even during the final war, a few survivors were with Leon..
-The canyon relic convoy is moving sequentially..
Two of the five relic convoys were destroyed by the Orc pursuit party. There are no pantheon believers among them..
There is no problem with the convoy that Beatrice joined. Even if I were to face my pursuers, I would be able to crush them..
The problem lies with Koo Dae-seong and Han Ha-ri. The Orc tracking party is not targeting Beatrice or other convoys, but is targeting Hanhari directly..
Probably, it seems that it has been tracked first, but I don't think there is much need to worry about this either..
-Observations from seasoned Seongbeop users. Presumed to be a similar entity to the Holy Act user who joined His Majesty..
If you don't do anything, you can easily reach the empire's border..
Yapi's observation is now at the end of the field of the gate. Heading to where the orcs are gathered.
After an unlimited raid between Leon and Zereah, the main force of the Orcs who accepted the duel entered the front of the canyon..
Perhaps thanks to this, new groups are gradually coming down from the north, which was ‘unobservable’..
-Check the orc population. increasingly increasing.
Orcs and barbarians continue to push down from an unobservable area like pitch black dots..
Seeing the endless number of Orcs, Yapi felt a sense of duty to take down geostationary satellite weapons such as the Staff of God and the Grizzly that had been hacked and used on Earth..
However, the space weapon platform that operates inside the gate is not yet complete..
Yapi decided to observe the orcs in more detail rather than using the attack system, which is impossible at this point..
As the magnified lens observes the orcs gradually appearing in the black area... something blinked.
-Kwaaah…!
Something gushing out with a groaning sound. It rushed towards Yapi──
-Emergency escape sequence operation
The moment after Yapi was hastily ejected, the reconnaissance satellite was pierced by green light and destroyed..
800Yapi's fuselage was engulfed in flames as it crashed from an altitude of 10,000 km..
* * * *
Mag'har, the champion of the orc shaman gods, clicked his tongue as he looked at the arrogant golden knight in front of him..
All the Holy Grail Knights are the worst enemies of the Orcs, but when it comes to the Lionheart King of his time, he is the worst of them all..
The number of orcs buried by that terrible being is well over a million..
What I did as soon as I received command of the knights was to conquer the orcs. The southern part of the kingdom where he was actually a lord. It is said that the seeds of the orcs dried up in the Langqual region..
'It's a bitch.'
Although the region is different, I have heard enough rumors about it. There is an orc butcher in the southern land..
"However, it is arrogant. I'm overconfident in my strength.."
The Mag'har stepped forward. A damp green energy began to spread like fog around his rotten old tree staff..
"I am the one who can recite three hundred spells and eight hundred curses. King of the snowfield. He is the owner of the crater.."
The green magic power is transformed into hundreds of curses. The wrath of this great sorcerer is directed at one man..
And the same goes for other orc champions who don't hide their anger..
"Even though they are wild beasts, they are just prey. I'm overestimating my teeth.."
-thud! thud!
It was then. The orcs shout as the whole floor shakes..
-Dothraki the Destroyer!
-Dothraki the Breaker!
It took grand steps, clapping wildly..
Clunk, clank, the whole body wearing heavy iron armor makes a clanging sound..
Dothraki, a giant wild boar from the northern mountains. A truly magical beast captured and tamed by a great hunter blessed by the orc hunting god..
Skira, the champion of the orc hunting god Skunik, climbed onto the Dothraki's back..
"White wolf. your blessings…!"
A tribe of cultists who worship the four beast gods. The leader of Lionheart's old enemy is the one who receives the protection of the ferocious white tiger..
His body is so vicious that you want to turn your eyes away just by looking at it..
The human body becomes enlarged, fur grows, and a ferocious spirit emerges..
Why barbarians worship beast gods.
There is no code or rules. There is no need for a long journey of practice or completion of a task..
Just offer yourself to the beast and offer it to others, and that alone will bless you..
Despite this vicious contract, foolish and ignorant ordinary people cannot help but be drawn to the warriors of the beast god who escape the human body and obtain the flesh of the grassland..
It's so easy to gain power without effort or sacrifice..
Leon remained calm even in the face of terrible monsters powered by evil gods..
"It stinks.."
""……???""
One word that strangely touches my nerves. Under the concentrated gaze, the blonde nobleman frowns..
"It's a tasteless smell. It would be more suitable for a serf's barn than a battlefield.."
I get angry. The first to rush was Da-gil, whose white fur was fluttering..
Just by kicking the ground, a dent is created, and the powerful body and speed are violent in themselves..
Even though he could crush Leon just by colliding with him, he stretches out his arms..
Da-gil's white arm is a vicious weapon in itself. Its sharpness is enough to tear Leon's limbs apart..
"It's iron."
Seongbeop <Iron armor>
At that moment, Leon's body receives the protection of the iron and blacksmith divinity. Dagil's arm swung as it approached, and it hit Leon's neck exactly..
-Kyaang!
It was an impossible sound. A sound so foreign that a blade-like nail struck a person's raw flesh..
"what…."
Da- gil's ferocious eyes are filled with bewilderment. That's right, Leon's head should have been cut off like tofu... This is because it was intact without a single piece of skin being cut..
"A person who represents God is someone who reveres him and reverently follows his teachings.."
Blue eyes turn to Da-gil. I inadvertently took a step back..
"But you only pursued ignorance through ignorance. The god they follow doesn't teach anything, and the believers they follow don't want to learn anything.."
The holy sword is heard. The brilliant golden light shone dazzlingly..
<Holy Sword of Glory>
"You guys are just trash. Your god is also abandoned. Your shallow faith cannot compare to ours.."
'I have to stop it…!'
Dagil raised his steel-like claws. Ferocious claws that can tear even rocks to pieces. It's just a single blow, you can stop it──
-Kwasik!
"……!"
The barbarians' eyes widened. Even though Dagil, the warrior of the most powerful god in the tribe, has completely transformed into a beast... cut cleanly.
Dagil's fingernails were split and cut in a straight line from the top of his head to his groin, as if a sharp blade had cut a piece of paper..
"You guy…!"
Gok'rok's champion, Mag'har, stretched out his staff..
Numerous curses take shape and spread out towards Leon..
It is a deadly poison that takes away life one by one, a curse of all evil that suffocates the world..
"Those who receive the protection of the Holy Grail, no disease or evil can invade them.."
A blue cup shook behind Leon’s back. Produces holy water on its own and emits the protection of brilliant light..
This place where the Holy Grail is located is truly a sacred place. Under the proclamation of a demigod, evil things are driven out..
<Declaration of sanctuary>
"Ugh…!"
As all of his curses melted away before the Holy Grail's protection, Mag'har aimed his staff at Leon, who was running towards him..
Dozens of orc spells rain down on Leon. That firepower is truly the firepower that will annihilate the corps. These are destruction spells that I stocked up to avoid the canyon being destroyed and the entrance blocked..
"……!"
However, the divine beast of light breaks through this. At the moment of assault, most spells were missed in the face of rapidly increasing resistance..
"He's an order-maker. Even if you know the spells of the whole world, what good is it if your depth is so shallow?."
The holy sword is raised high. The Mag'har tried to do something, but in no case could he imagine a future ahead of that holy sword..
"A shallow all-rounder crumbles before the ultimate one.."
Well done!
The shaman's bloody crest fell to the ground..
"Wowaaaaaa…!"
The wrath is loud, almost like a scream. Skira, holding a huge spear like a harpoon, charged with the giant boar Dothraki..
"How arrogant! How dare you confront Jim by charging him?!`"
Leon reverse-summoned Stallion and summoned a new beast. A fire-breathing bull. The war chariot of the war god Fethos carries Leon..
【The strongest assaulter】
"run…!"
-Woooooooo…!
-Woooooooo…!
Two bulls start galloping with ferocious momentum. The air is warmed by the sound of breathing and the heat radiating from the force. Even the northern mountains tremble in fear after encountering that force..
-Wow!?
Facing the bull of Fethos, Majer stopped in fear and Scyra panicked and pulled on the reins..
But no matter what he does, he doesn't listen to Skira's orders. The next moment, the horns of the brave war bull collided with Mazer..
-Kuwak!
Skira's stall shakes with the sound of meat exploding. Leon jumps at him.
"You guy…!"
Skira held up a holy spear and extended the javelin of destruction towards Leon, who was striking down. A new item given to him by Skunik himself. The moment it collides with the Holy Spear... The side that splits like taffy sticks is the javelin side..
"……!"
Without even having time to do anything, Skira had to watch the holy spear pierce his torso..
""………….""
""………….""
The hall is engulfed in silence.
A massacre that could not be considered a duel occurred before our eyes..
Everyone recognizes it, beyond humans and orcs.
The highest knight in human history is here..
* * * *
Immunity to death is disappearing.
To be precise, although the holy power still remains, Zereah is close to having achieved the holy law on his own..
"Are you planning to go?."
"Yeah… I think it was a pretty good fight... As expected, Your Majesty is amazing.."
Zereah was proud of Leon, who showed transcendent strength..
200 years from now. In the end, the world was destroyed and he fought alone in this tragedy. How strong did he become??
It was sad, yet proud. Your own king... Since he is such a dazzling person, how could he not be proud as a subject?.
"There is a Holy Grail. If necessary, I can be with you until the end of the world approaches.."
At those words, Zereah shook his head..
"Your Majesty, please do not be buried in memories of the past. Please do not waste your precious time. You have shown me that you are so proud, what more could I ask for?."
We weren't wrong after all.
the gods aren't wrong.
The young king in front of me... No, I could be sure that the glorious Lionheart King of Lionheart would ultimately win in the future..
Leon looked at the truly greedy and loyal knight and made his decision..
"I will perform the ascension ceremony. Hold it up."
"your majesty… The fight is not over yet…!"
Ascension Ceremony.
It is a religious ritual performed by the Lionheart King for the Holy Grail Knight who has suffered a fatal wound or wishes for death..
A grand ceremony where the Lionheart King personally takes his soul and guides it to paradise. Zereah did not want to be a burden as it would consume a huge amount of holy power..
"The orcs and cultists retreated. If we don't go after them, there won't be any more fights for me. Honey, accept it.."
"But I already……."
he is fake Since his soul is enshrined in the paradise of the gods, it is only a reproduced memory. How can he do that for himself?…….
"Holy Grail Knight Zereah Vertum. Jordic Bertum's second son, a member of the Liona Sunset Knights. The first knight who serves dreams and death."
The ascension ceremony began as if it would not be questioned. Zereah quickly adjusted her blood-soaked body and knelt in front of him..
"Say hello to the noble lady you follow.."
In response, Zereah prayed to the woman who granted him the quest and gave him the opportunity..
"The boatman who leads from the lowest point. The woman who governs the end of all things. Here comes your servant at the end of his long journey."
"I am leaving alone to be with my dear friend, my proud comrade, and my great king.."
"All his life, he shunned vanity and lies, hated gold, and protected and fed his subjects. Lady."
"If you wish to bless the merits achieved in this life, please enlarge my king's territory. If you wish to lead your servants, please let my king be free from sorrow and tribulation.."
"Please do not make me poor, do not leave me full, and protect the king with the remaining merit. Please brighten Banya’s dark path ahead.."
He is foolish and foolish and greedless. Leon filled the chalice with holy water and washed his bloody head..
Cleansed all the impurities within him and blessed him..
"You dreamer. One who receives the protection of death. Your honor made the lion's heart prosper, your glory made the woman happy.."
"God of dreams and death. Here comes your first knight on his final journey."
"His honor will be remembered by those who live, and his glory you will remember.."
"May this knight serve you a glass of wine at your dinner party. May that name remain forever."
"I, the 15th Lionheart King, guardian of light and justice, rider of war and flame, lighthouse of the sea and waves——the representative of all gods, I promise, we will be together at the banquet hall of the gods.."
The brilliant light of the Holy Grail enveloped Zereah. He finally closed his eyes as the warm energy pierced him..
Casting off the skin of the flesh, shining like a purple jewel──
The Holy Grail Knight ascended to heaven.
* * * *
The home of tens of thousands of orcs. Even in an unprecedented situation where three orc god champions have been defeated, their base remains unwavering and strong..
"I got hit."
It was a polite tone for an orc, but the two pupils, radiating a damp green aura, were swallowing their wrath..
Humiliation, shame, and fear of the anger that the being in front of me will show..
"sorry. My student wasn't good enough."
Another Orc shaman champion. Golgotha, the cunning black sorcerer, bowed her head deeply..
Now he will decide. Should I continue to sweep away those meager kingdom forces, or should I follow tradition, acknowledge victory and defeat, and retreat?.
"retreat."
Calm and serious, but not hidden, ferocious. However, the conclusion he reached was contrary to his voice..
"It was worth the money I got. Lee Sang-sang doesn't fit the bill.."
At the end, the warchief stands up from the throne of the main camp..
50A warchief who united the dog tribes and a champion blessed by all orc gods. He didn't seem willing to take any more losses..
"Is it the lion heart king?."
-Hehehehe…….
His voice is gloomy. It turned its green eyes towards its rival..
"If we're meant to be, we can have a fight.."
However, that is not the case now. With this done, his schedule turns to the other side of Lionheart..
If we go around this world once, then we will be able to accomplish the final conquest..
