31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 61)
The energy that Galifa gave off was terrible..
A whirlpool with a remnant of a human face cursed Galifa and shot towards Karen..
“Wow!”
Karen must have sensed the insidiousness, and quickly tried to avoid it..
but.
Sighaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The vortex bent and struck her armor..
“Ugh….”
“Hehe… no use! Because the dead cannot avoid the spirit of resentment..”
As a necromancer, Galifa knew exactly how to deal with corpses..
Pusssss…
Karen's armor was still intact, but her skin was starting to break down..
“where!”
Grumbling-!
[Karen's pride is activated.]
[Short duration, ignores most damage.]
A flame rose from Karen's body, trying to burn off the unclean energy. But the whirlpool of her resentment clung to her persistently..
“Well, your body will be torn to pieces in just a moment! Hehehe… It's annoying after that, but this old man will put your body back together again..”
Galifa said and looked at the snowfall..
“ruler! Finish it..”
“Isn't it over??”
“If the author resists corruption, the victory will not be won in a short time. If the resentment within them disappears, it will go on a rampage again. Well, it seems like once the grudge is hit, the body will decompose..”
“…All right.”
Snowfall looked at Karuna..
Karuna rushed towards Karen with determined eyes..
Ahhhhh…
Karen's breath whipped around..
Snowfall thought she had finally cut Karen down..
Kaaaang-!
But she persisted.
Resisting corruption, I held on to my crumbling body..
“Still you... There's no answer.”
“…Karen.”
“Brother who did not keep his promise, who abandoned the empire..”
“Karen, let me explain everything. The emperor is dead, and the Montra Empire has already collapsed. A new world has come.”
“Collapse? Montra? No, that can't be possible..”
“Come to your senses! Our time is already over! we… dead.”
“Hehe… Yes, I am dead. However, the empire lives. still, still here….”
Snowfall felt cool for a moment..
In a place filled with such hot flames, for some reason there was a feeling of coolness..
‘No, it's not cool..’
It's ominous.
He mostly trusted his intuition.
At that moment, Karen made an expression. she laughed.
And, she returned to the way she was when she was alive..
The way you speak, your habits, your memories, everything. And even the power.
“Inside me, the empire lives. I'm still a knight of Montra.”
Snowfall shouted urgently..
“Karuna! blood….”
“what….”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Bleep.-
An explosion so large that two people can hear it.
Snowfall sensed that something was wrong, and so did Galifa..
“oh my god… Unbelievable… my magic….”
[Karen's last-minute flip takes effect..]
[All status ailments and damage received until now are postponed to a later date..]
[After a while, deferred damage and status ailments have twice the duration, intensity, and damage..]
[‘The main contents of ‘The Burned One’ will be changed..]
[‘‘The one who is completely burned out’ is changed to ‘The remaining flames’.]
Galifa was in disbelief and spoke gibberish..
“Resentment… Disappeared? How, how could that be?!”
Karuna was completely charred, but fortunately he was unharmed..
The explosion was simply a shock wave from Karen regaining her strength, so the destructive force it had on the surroundings was not that strong..
Anyway, since she won't be corrupted for a certain amount of time, Kangseol and Galifa's plan to take the time and finish it off has come to naught..
Now the hunter and the prey are reversed..
Oooooh-!
[Wolf warning is triggered.]
[The wearer is currently in a dangerous situation.]
As Karen regained her strength, the wolf warning that Snowfall obtained from Kibo was activated..
I knew it without even thinking twice. It was a very dangerous situation now..
Adventure 10-1. 'Standing balance’
ancient knight karen.
The glorious knight of the Scarlet Lotus stands before you, completely burned out. But she still wants answers.
Archbishop Galifa dealt a converting blow to her in her fallen necromantic state, accelerating her corruption. You, who thought you would never be able to defeat her, took a chance on her unexpected situation..
However, she pushed back the power of corruption with less than half of her strength, and her destruction was postponed for a while..
Now, things are simpler than before.
Either die to her, or survive until her doom comes..
Goal: Survive for 5 minutes
Current remaining time 「04 : 37」
‘Dangerous!’
Unlike the irrational spirit, the current Karen was very difficult to deal with..
I didn't know much about her abilities, and I had no idea how much power she could unleash..
The only thing that is certain is.
‘Must live. for the rest of the time!’
All I have to do is endure the 4 minutes at any cost..
Even in the midst of his embarrassment, Galifa must have thought of a way to overcome the situation, and he spoke to Kang Seol..
“then… I guess this is it. Kinderik, the best I can do remains..”
“what is that?”
“…This is it.”
Pusss…
Galifa quickly shrunk in an instant. He looked older than before, as if his lifespan had shortened..
Like an old man on his deathbed, he gasped and said.
“every… I'm going to die.”
[Galifa uses the special ability: Night of the Corpse..]
[Galifa's lifespan is reduced.]
[All corpses within a certain radius will rise.]
[Corpses fight for Galifa.]
[Corpses explode when touched by living creatures..]
[Corpses explode on impact.]
Wood-dud-duk… Crackling…
At the gesture of Galifa's hand, the corpses rose, as if the melody was changing. The corpses killed by Galifa and burned by Karen slowly turned their heads to look at Karen..
“Ughhh….”
“Ugh….”
As dozens of walking bombs exploded, Galifa smiled triumphantly. And he declared.
“kill them all.”
In accordance with his words, the corpses rushed forward. To the burning Karen and Snowfall.
Snowfall shouted at Galifa without looking too embarrassed..
“archbishop! What on earth is this??”
Galifa could not think deeply about Kang Seol's bold attitude and revealed his hidden intentions..
“Hehehe… Did you think I didn’t know? A foolish lion who doesn't know the instructions is living in a place as horrible as Yeongsaenggyo? I have to say something that makes sense... Your usefulness ends here. she is mine!”
Most of the corpses that rose up headed towards Karen, and only a few bodies rushed toward Snowfall. It seemed like they thought this was enough to subdue a foolish summoner who was separated from the summoned beast..
“I'm sorry, Galifa. I thought we'd be together longer.”
“That's not even funny! Come on and become one with the corpses!!”
“If that's what you think. But it's not me who becomes one with the corpses..”
As they spoke, the corpses almost reached Kang Seol..
Snowfall lowered her head and said to Galifa:.
“nudge.”
“joy! You only live with your mouth!”
Whoa whoa…
Whirling-!
Galifa expected the snowfall to explode with the corpses. So much so, that in this ability he was confident and.
However, as black light spread out from Kangseol's hand, the corpse that was heading towards Kangseol suddenly grew taller..
“That's it….”
A huge hand was placed on the corpse's head. The hand grabbed the corpse's head and lifted it up..
“Jamard, please..”
“As long as I don't hold it tight, it won't explode against me, who is a shadow. I get it.”
[Jamard uses rock armor.]
[The special effect of Fist of the Mountain activates..]
[Snowman gains the effect of Rock Armor.]
“Ha, was there one more guy? Is there another monster like that? Oh my... Come back! protect this body!”
“Ughhh….”
Among the group of corpses heading towards Karen, the last row of corpses began to return towards Galifa..
However, the distance had already widened considerably..
Jamaard and Snowfall rushed towards Galifa..
flashing-!
Jamard lifted up the body and.
Whoa whoa-
thrown somewhere.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
[the body explodes.]
[Corrodes explosion radius.]
In the end, Kang Seol's decision to hide the card called Jamad was correct..
Galifa, who hastily showed his teeth to Kang Seol, didn't know what to do..
“Oh, no. Do not come!”
As Jamaard ran, throwing the corpses to the other side, Galifa got scared and tried to back away, but fell..
When Kangseol got out of range of the corpse, he sighed and said,.
“Your usefulness ends here, Galifa..”
“No, stop! don't!”
“jamard.”
Jamard suddenly stood in front of Galifa and raised one leg..
“Have a nice dream, old man..”
“No way!”
Kwazii profit!
[Defeated Archbishop Galifa.]
[Achieve the achievement ‘Acquaintance across the street’.]
[Obtain the title “Trickster”.]
[Additional rewards are given.]
A message flashed through my mind, but that wasn't what was important right now..
As soon as Snowfall eliminated Galifa, she looked back at Karen..
[When the caster dies, all corpses explode..]
[Corrodes explosion radius.]
Kwaaang-! Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa! Kwaaaaang!
A series of explosions occurred, shaking the forest once again. Karuna luckily wasn't targeted by the corpses, so she was able to watch the explosion from a little distance away..
‘It's tremendous power..’
Galifa's special abilities all showed tremendous destructive power. The problem was that it cost a lot of money..
Kang Seol recalled his viciousness and checked Karen’s condition. Hoping that Galifa's terrible power will temper her momentum a little..
Grumbling…
“…Nonsense.”
Karen was fine..
Even if I used the ability to flip at the last minute, I can't believe I could endure this much damage..
In an instant, Kang Seol remembered the phrase that came to mind earlier..
[All status ailments and damage received until now are postponed to a later date..]
‘If all conditions are abnormal... Could it be that the necromantic penalty has also disappeared??’
A necromantic penalty that seals half of its power. Karen even deleted that for a moment..
What it meant was clear.
‘This… I can't win.’
Although Snowfall succeeded in wiping out the camp and causing damage to Karen, all future plans became unclear..
Will they be able to stop Karen, who has regained her strength, for the remaining time?.
Snowfall decided that it was impossible..
But then, Karuna spoke to Karen. In a situation where everything is heading towards evil, I thought running away would be the lesser evil, but a completely unexpected situation unfolded..
“Karen, I tried to keep my promise..”
“Do not lie! How dare you say such a thing when you abandoned Montra?….”
“No, it's true. I was heading to the ecliptic that day.”
“this traitor!”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
[Karen uses red lotus cham (紅蓮斬).]
A large flame erupted from Karen's sword, which only had half of its blade left. Karuna also condensed the power of the moonlight so as not to lose..
[Karuna uses Full Moon Cham (滿月斬).]
Fajiyi profit-!
After the clash between the two, it was naturally Karuna who was pushed out..
But, the collision was strange..
Kwaaaaang-!
“Ugh….”
Although Karuna was crushed by Karen's force, she did not suffer a huge blow from which she could not recover. This was definitely strange.
Snowfall, who confirmed the appearance, made a certain assumption..
‘Karen… I'm hesitating?’
When there was a difference in abilities and abilities, it was normal for them to be pushed to an absurd level. Perhaps if Karen swung her sword right now, she could blow off Karuna's head..
But, she didn't do that..
‘Her purpose is not our death!’
Snowfall concluded that.
“weak. Karuna. I have become so weak. Did the world you chose after abandoning the empire make you this weak??”
“Ugh… I did not abandon the empire.”
“stop! stop! You keep telling lies until the end! you… you….”
Whoa whoa-!
While they were talking, Jamard took advantage of the opportunity and attacked Karen..
But it was a meaningless swing.
Karen rotated her body and kicked Jamad at an invisible speed..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Kwazijic…
“Wow... . what power….”
Jamard was thrown away by Karen's kick..
Even though they were more than twice the size, Karen's strength was so great that she could blow Jamard away..
But as expected, it didn't kill him. Kang Seol nodded..
It seemed like she was planning to save Kang Seol and the others..
“Why are you interfering? What is Karuna to you??”
“Hehehe… Don't bother the iron... . Or you can deal with me too. You monster.”
“monster? I?”
And at last, her delayed doom came.
[The effect of Karen's last-minute flip ends..]
[All accumulated damage and status abnormalities are doubled..]
Pusss…
Karen's pupils became blurry again..
And her skin started to shrivel..
