I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 297

[…this… … Can you hear me… … ? … Come on…….]
“huh?”
Mir's ears perked up and he looked back. Of course there was no one nearby..
“Yes……?”
Mir narrowed his eyes and pressed his temples with both fingers..
However, there was no way I could see something that was not visible..
“Why do you do that?”
“Didn't someone just call me??”
Araksad looked at Mir's face and shook his head..
“i didn't hear anything.”
“Is that so... … . Did I hear it wrong?…….”
“You never know. Maybe you were the only one who saw through the church’s tricks..”
“I don’t think so… … . It didn't feel evil..”
“okay?”
After thinking for a moment, Araksad looked around and said:.
“For now, let's start with cleaning up the surrounding area. Please help me because I don't have enough hands..”
“I understand.”
Mir moved quickly and freed the captives..
“Thank you..”
“Really, I thought it was all wrong now.…….”
Most of the prisoners here were safe..
Not only the body but also the mental state is normal. This is in contrast to the people we saw in the [Duel Arena] who looked anxious..
‘These are people who haven't done the work yet..’
Of course, Araxad doesn't know what the task is..
However, there is a clear difference from the prisoners we saw earlier, so it is more correct to think that the church did something..
Whether it's intimidation, torture, or mental modification..
“Hehehe…….”
At that time, a kid looked at Araksad and cowered. It was an attempt to free the restraints that bound the body, but this is a very regrettable response..
Araksad felt embarrassed at times like this..
Mature northern warriors would have taken an indifferent attitude to Araksad's characteristic appearance, but he was not yet a young human..
“Are you okay?”
Then a soft voice interrupted, and the child's wary face quickly changed..
A nun can be seen liberating prisoners or soothing their souls with a smile comparable to that of a saint..
Although he is covered in blood... In the eyes of a child, it looked better than the white-scaled Lizardman..
“I'll take care of this place, brother..”
“…please.”
Blood Mace Rasbet is famous in many ways..
A beautiful appearance and a contrasting eccentricity, but what stands out more than anything is its strength..
I heard that he was the strongest among the 72 Heretic Questioners, but Araksad did not believe the rumor..
Heresy Inquisitors are those who fight against the Church on the front lines, and in some fields, they are experts who are more familiar with demon hunting than heroes..
It is also an organization with a history as long as Heros, perhaps even longer..
What does it mean to be the strongest in such a group of monsters?.
This means that his skills are at least on par with Heros' S-class hero..
Given Araxad's cautious nature, it is natural that he was not quick to trust him..
However, the inaction that Razvet had just shown in the battle immediately changed that opinion..
Sometimes there are people like that. A being who can alone change the situation of the war..
In Araxad's opinion, Razvet was that type..
Originally, Araksad risked his life to subdue this camp. Even if I was lucky, I expected to be seriously injured and one of my limbs would be amputated..
However, everything changed with the arrival and performance of that Heretic Questioner. It's not without scars, but at most it's just a scratch..
Of course, that woman killed about half of the church members..
“Ah, father?”
“Mir!”
“…….”
While freeing the prisoners, there was an unexpected reunion..
Among those captured in this camp were giants, among whom were the parents of the Mir Giant..
‘They don't look much alike..’
Araksad thought this as he watched the reunion of the two women and approached the man..
“You are the representative of the Frostwolf Clan.?”
“That’s right… … . That one?”
“Araxad. He is the hero of Heros..”
Mir's father - Dormon looked at the Lizardman in front of him with a strange look for a moment..
Lizardmen themselves were a species that was difficult to find in the North, but even this man's scales were white. There was a dark pattern engraved on it, making it feel even more foreign..
Seeing that he was sitting at about the same eye level as me, he was quite large and had a lot of weapons..
Honestly, if it weren't for this situation, I would have been suspicious first..
“father! This person is my senior.!”
“hmm. That's right.”
I never thought I would reunite with my daughter in a place like this and even become a hero..
I didn't think I would return to my hometown right after Badniker's retreat ended, but.
At best, I expected it to be active in the Islands, the East, or other lands in the North..
…Anyway, it seemed clear that that strange Lizardman was a hero..
Dormon said, bowing his head..
“thank you for saving me.”
“It was nothing. It was also for our sake that you were rescued..”
“Does this mean you need help??”
“exactly. And I'm curious about the circumstances of the matter. Last I heard, most of the people in Frostwolf Village were missing. How did that happen??”
“…I'm not sure. I think I heard a bell, but my memories after that are vague. I feel like I've been walking for quite some time, as if I was struggling in a dream.…….”
“…….”
Dormon's expression became serious..
“If nothing else, the sound of that bell is dangerous. The will to fight disappeared in an instant, and even my mind became faint. At that moment, it was as if my life was in the hands of the cult. They could have kidnapped him like this, modified his body, or even taken his life. As simple as stomping on an ant-.”
“It must be the power of the devil.”
Sister Razvet, who seemed to have freed all the prisoners, intervened..
Dormon, who was looking at this blankly, asked:.
“Heretic Questioner?”
“That's right.”
“Soaked in blood.”
“Yes.”
“Why don't you wipe it.”
“Because I'm going to ask again anyway.?”
“ah.”
Some rather stupid-looking lines were exchanged..
Araksad returned their attention by lightly hitting the ground with his tail..
Razbet continued..
“To fight against the power of the devil, you must have protection, possess divine power, or possess a holy relic... … . These three methods are representative. Other than that, you will be controlled by the power regardless of the strength of your body..”
“hmm… … . But some warriors of our tribe also have divine protection..”
“That's right. Maybe that's why the church categorizes the brothers separately..”
“What does it mean??”
“To put it simply… It's a more luxurious offering..”
Silence falls again at Razbet's words..
Araksad saw those who had just been rescued..
Most warriors have combat skills, but will they really be a great addition to the military??
First of all, they were all naked without any equipment, had little resistance to the instruments, and did not seem to have completely returned to their senses yet..
What we need is a hero with experience confronting the cult..
Araksad looked at Dormon and said:.
“Our clan leader has headed to your village..”
“hmm?”
“Originally, he was supposed to come back in time, but he couldn't. You didn't notice anything strange in the village just before you left.?”
“Because it's strange…….”
Dormon thought deeply, but shook his head as if he had come up with nothing..
“As far as I know, there wasn't any-.”
It was that moment.
Whioooooooo-!
A strong wind was heard from somewhere, and the entire cave trembled. The shaking was so loud that ice flakes fell from the sky..
Araksad and Razvet, as well as the warriors who had just been released, looked up at the ceiling nervously, and at that moment, a cold wind passed by them quickly..
“Just that?”
“I think something happened…….”
The cold wind passed by in an instant, but the vibration did not go away..
Araxad had the feeling that it was like a premonition just before a strong earthquake occurred..
Of course, earthquakes happen in the North too..
Suddenly I had a strange thought.
Imagine this ice cave collapsing due to a sudden earthquake, and everyone inside being crushed to death..
The absurd thing was that, from the perspective of protecting the peace of the empire, it might not have been such a bad ending..
Araksad did not have an accurate grasp of the Church's plan at this point, but he felt it instinctively..
While most of the people were unable to understand the reason for the sudden abnormal phenomenon, Razbet, who was staring straight ahead instead of the ceiling of the cave, said briefly:.
“coming.”
what? And I didn't even ask..
With those words, the entrance to the cave shook, and frozen corpses appeared..
Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-!
What made them different from ordinary corpses was that they could move, and even a terrible roar came out of their snouts as if they were alive..
“put the kids back!”
Dormon shouted, then jumped up from his seat and ran forward..
The advance of the giant Dormon, especially among the giants, shook the cave violently..
Dormon plunged into the swarm of corpses with his bare body and began to sweep away the corpses like some kind of siege weapon..
“Help the tribal chief!”
With a shout that could only be heard in war, surrounding warriors also joined the front line..
Araksad also wielded a weapon on the front lines..
A swarm of corpses covered in tattered bodies... … . I was surprised by the number, but it wasn't that threatening. The guy controlling this corpse probably knows that much..
If so, there is a high probability that this is not the end..
Then Razbet shouted again..
“It's the sky!”
“……!”
I felt an evil presence that could not even be compared to a moving corpse..
The moment Araksad kicked the rushing corpse and looked up at the sky, he suddenly saw a bat hanging upside down from an icicle in the cave..
no. not a bat.
They have black fur, slitted eyes, and wings reminiscent of bats, but they are much more evil than that..
demon horde.
‘There are too many?’
Even at a glance, the number seems to easily exceed a hundred..
Those with flashing eyes all lost their claws, fell down, and started randomly attacking the surrounding area..
“Ugh, ugh! my arm!”
“You bastards! Get away from me!”
You can't fight a corpse with your bare body, but fighting a demon without a weapon has its limits..
But we can't help everyone.
The corpses that filled the surrounding area were now obstacles rather than enemies, impeding movement..
Did they send a group of corpses for this purpose in the first place??
I can feel the wires gradually being pushed back. Not good. This end is a dead end. This means that there is a limit to stepping down..
Kwasik!
Then the back of my right hand was bitten by a corpse..
Since I was only responding to demons attacking from the sky, my guard against the corpses on the ground had become dull..
He had almost no jaw joint, so his chewing strength was limited, but touching rotten teeth was dangerous in itself. Needless to say, if you are wearing a musical instrument,.
Araksad struck down the corpse with his shield..
“Wow wow-!
A huge figure was seen running through the battlefield with a huge roar..
It was Dormon who first left home..
Although he had just been released from custody and did not even have any special equipment, his performance was dazzling..
In Araksad's opinion, Dormon was showing the greatest performance along with Razvet on this battlefield..
But does having a large body size always serve as an advantage??
The disadvantages of this hassle-free mass production are no less significant..
Being huge also means exposing yourself to many places..
Shut up!
“father!”
Mir shouted in surprise..
A demon fell from the sky and ripped off Dormon's left ear..
The devil burst out laughing and chewed the torn off ear as if showing pride..
Dormon stretched out his large hand and grabbed the demon's head. The devil wasn't small, but he was nothing compared to a giant..
The devil's head was wrapped in the giant's hand like a small fruit and smashed with a crunching sound..
“don't back down-!”
Dormon shouted in a voice that had not weakened at all. The giant Warcry has reached the end of the battlefield..
The warriors responded with shouts and gained momentum..
I immediately realized that Araksad was only bluffing..
can't last long.
Then you need to change your tactics..
We must honestly not deal with the coming corpses and demons, but rather drive out those who control them..
But can you afford it??
If you leave this battlefield now, the rest will be wiped out in an instant..
I knew this because Arakshadra was blocking one of the biggest waves, the endless waves of corpses..
moment of choice.
Will it continue like this?.
Or will you be prepared to make some sacrifices?.
Kwasik-.
Just before making a decision, there was a sound like a crack coming from the wall on the right..
Araksad's heart sank..
‘Here again?’
The third number prepared by the denomination-.
It was the moment when the words ‘annihilation’ crossed Araksad’s mind..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
A powerful storm raged everywhere, tearing corpses and demons apart..
Araksad's gaze looked beyond the collapsed wall..
A young man with a tall appearance like a hero from a legend appeared, flapping his wings. Just like an angel in a myth, it was clad in a gentle radiance..
“…Knight of the Wind Wind!”
Heros' S-class hero, Feed, smiled..
“Fortunately, I guess it's not too late..”
