I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 300

300fury

While everyone was frozen, the person who most accurately grasped the situation was Inquisitor Sister Razvet..

To be more precise, only Verita, a colorless believer, was able to roughly understand the plot..

first. As Berita guessed, the priest was nearby, beyond the ceiling of the cave..

second. However, the priest was already half-corpse and was just reciting a spell. Berita also witnessed the strange appearance of only the lower jaw hanging..

third. The ceiling broke and the demonic leader appeared as soon as the priest stopped moving.…….

The moment all those elements came together in her mind, Verita's mind came to one conclusion..

‘dual control!’

So, this means that the priest who controlled the devil's corpse was actually controlled by the corps commander..

how difficult is that.

Controlling a marionette is an art no different from handling a marionette..

It would be an impossible task even for the few masters of black magic left on the continent, but it did not seem to be that difficult for the being that has now appeared..

That's because they are not mortal in the first place..

With an instrument of this magnitude and a presence of this magnitude, he must be one of the corps commanders directly under Kingarodtooth, the golden-horned demon lord..

This is the entity that the Demon King appointed as his [Horn]..

What horn is it??

If it's the third time, it's difficult for everyone to avoid death no matter what they do..

Like that S-class hero who is already dead..

Cheonpung Knight Feed responded until just before his death..

His brain only had doubts about the protagonist whose overwhelming presence was suddenly revealed, but his body, trained over a long period of time, reflexively stretched his trident towards the sky, and strong winds also showed signs of whipping up..

It was of no use..

The corps commander suddenly became a gigantic being, as if his weight had increased dozens of times, and he threw the trident away, was not shaken by the strong wind, and fell straight down, crushing the feed..

As a result, the feed turned into blood and died..

“Captain! Wow…….”

The hero who appeared to be an adjutant screamed and attacked the corps commander..

Losing one's mind over the death of a colleague is not the attitude of a hero. Did he have a special relationship with the already dead Pied?.

In any case, Verita could clearly see what was going to happen next..

thud……!

The moment the corps commander hit the floor with the cane in his hand, the body of the running adjutant was squeezed..

It's literal..

It looked like a huge being was holding the adjutant's head and legs and wringing them out like a rag..

Crackling.

With an eerie sound, the adjutant turned into a piece of meat and fell to the ground..

Only then did the heroes around startle..

“What just happened……!”

“Alexia in an instant?”

“Oh my god, damn it!”

A few heroes muttered, but fortunately no one made a hasty move..

Now the heroes stood their ground, resisting the terrible instruments. It was finally decided that the situation should be monitored a little more..

But it seems like even that was annoying to the corps commander..

Kwasik, Kwasik, Kwasik!

A tombstone suddenly fell from the sky and crushed the three heroes who had just opened their mouths..

“……!”

A death mask full of pain was soon revealed on the tombstone, and letters were engraved on it..

[Guell Donter.]

[Liara Fawkes.]

[long wise man.]

The heroes around us realized that these were the names of those who had just been laid on the tombstones..

Strangely elongated, discolored fingers emerged from beneath the commander's sleeves..

The index finger, which looks like a withered old tree, touches the corps commander's face..

[Shhh…….]

“…….”

It means shut up.

Verita quietly raised the risk index for the demon corps commander one level higher..

Demons who do not speak language are a particularly dangerous type of demon..

It's not that they can't use language because they don't have intelligence..

If someone possesses that level of strength, there is a high probability that their intelligence is also much higher than that of humans..

But there are two reasons why you don’t open your mouth..

They use language systems that humans can't understand, or they don't want to mix words with humans..

…Either way is dangerous.

Verita felt nervous for the first time in a long time..

Originally, Verita would not 'worry about dying' at any time, but now the situation is not good in many ways..

I really thought I could die..

‘however…….’

what is the purpose?

The corps commander has already taken control of this place..

Aside from myself, the only ones who had a chance of killing that demon were the Knights of the Wind Wind, but Feed just died in an attack..

It means that organizing the rest is not that difficult for that being.…….

…At that time, the corps commander, who was looking around, struck his staff again..

Coo... The faces of the heroes became thoughtful again at the sound, but no one died this time..

Pieces of flesh that had been scattered everywhere came together and began to come together in the air..

What was writhing like kneaded meat eventually became a human face..

It was a woman with a sharp expression, but her face was as expressionless as if it were covered in ice..

“Huh, wow, wow…….”

Suddenly, the woman's face took a breath. His breathing had stopped until just before, and he looked like he was breathing urgently..

Verita couldn't figure out why a person with only a face needed to breathe..

“My, my, my, naenaenae…….”

Eventually, the stuttering mouth recited the words..

“…My name is Elan. He is a priest who serves Kingarodtooth, an evil god and golden savior..”

“…….”

“I have something to say to all of you gathered here..”

Priest Elan laughed..

“Well done.”

“…….”

Is that really a smile??

I'm not smiling because I'm genuinely happy. However, it could not be seen as ridiculing..

It was as if someone invisible had grabbed the corners of the mouth and cheeks of the woman with only her face left and forced a smile..

It's beyond unpleasant to the point of creepy..

“Really, you did a good job. I, I salute you.”

My voice trembled slightly..

Only then did Verita understand Elan's condition..

‘agent.’

That woman is already dead.

Although he was dead, his soul belonged to the corps commander and was being used like a puppet..

This is the end that most people who give their souls to the devil face..

The Elan priest was already dead, but he could not die completely and became a puppet to dictate the will of the corps commander..

“Tributes. I will now explain your role..”

“…….”

“Fight. It's good to fight with each other, and it's good to attack the district commander over there. However, I will not allow you to harm yourself or take your own life..”

“…….”

“Fight with anger, regret, and cry. The struggle of the living will be the sacrifice that hastens the second coming of the great golden horn. So the only one standing until the end will be able to get out of here alive..”

I understand the situation.

Although Verita was in this situation, she was able to find only one hope..

Kingarodtooth has not descended yet.

That was also the reason why the commander did not kill everyone here..

“Yes, I have conveyed your opinion to them. I guess my role is now over.?”

Elan looked at the corps commander with a pitiful expression..

The corps commander stood there in confusion and only turned his head to look at the priest..

“So can I die now??”

A tombstone fell from the sky and pierced through Priest Elan..

The face engraved on this tombstone was quite different from the previous one..

Elan's smile was engraved with joy just before he died. I even felt a kind of liberation from that smile..

And the heroes became ridiculously envious..

Envy of those who escape fear at the cost of death.

Only one person, Verita, was disgusted by Elan's ignorance..

Is it true that a priest of name and color truly does not know the end? Even after death, the soul of a church member will forever belong to the devil..

It was then.

“you… What are you standing on now??”

While everyone was frozen in fear, an angry voice was heard..

I felt a surge of emotion that surprised those who had been dazed..

Mir Giant.

Mir, who had thrown the hammer with all his might and was almost exhausted, had finally come to his senses and was glaring at the corps commander..

“Get out of there…….”

Have you thrown away your judgment along with the hammer??

Jack, the adjutant of the Heavenly Wind Knight and the leader of the large clan [Frostel], had that thought at first..

As I listened to the extremely excited voice, I realized that it was Mir who was sane and not me..

‘ah.’

…Why was I scared of my colleague's death instead of angry??

While the veteran hero was shivering at what he had suddenly realized, Mir let out a roar and ran towards the corps commander..

This is the moment when the corps commander, who was quietly watching the scene, strikes his staff once again..

Kwasik!

A tombstone fell from the air and crushed Mir. Like a sight I've seen many times before.

“ah.”

Mir is dead.

The heroes sighed.

It felt different from the death of my previous colleague. A young hero who has not yet fully blossomed. The person they were supposed to protect is dead..

‘what should i do?’

Jack desperately racked his brain, but he couldn't think of a way to overcome the current situation..

The most likely thing is to split up and run away.-.

Even so, the ending would be death. This was because everyone in this cave had a mark engraved on it..

…If so, should we all join forces and fight that corps commander??

Actually that is correct.

In order to become the devil's plaything like this and be offered as an offering for the coming of the devil, it is right to swing the sword until just before death..

Jack finally understood that fact, and was even ready to throw his life away right now..

…However, others?

Jack looked at the heroes who were still frozen. Colleagues consumed by fear and fear.

Do I have the charisma to dominate them now?.

Can you convey to these people this heat that is stirring in your heart?.

We must give harsh orders..

Become a moth rushing to the flame, the command to die must be given with the word lunge wrapped in it..

Jack didn't have that level of control..

Even Jack, the head of a large clan, did the same..

At least there was only one person here who had that level of determination.…….

Coincidentally, that person was crushed to death at the same time as the corps commander appeared..

If all of this is the devil's calculation, it's terrible..

While Jack was thinking about this and that, Verita's eyes were focused on the tombstone where Mir was crushed..

It was a little strange.

Why is there no death mask or name on that tombstone??

“I'm scared, I'm scared-!”

At that moment, the tombstone fell and Mir underneath it appeared..

“……!”

Not only Jack but also Verita looked at Mir with their eyes wide open..

Surprisingly, although he was bleeding a little, there were no major injuries..

[…….]

The commander's flame wavered, and he struck his staff again..

Boom, this time multiple tombstones were summoned from the sky. Araksad, who was watching, threw one of the weapons on his back at Mir..

“use this!”

“……! Thank you!”

Mir caught the flying two-handed ax and swung it at the tombstone falling towards him..

Kwazisig!

The tombstone that fell shattered into pieces..

Only then did Jack realize..

The power of supernatural abilities does not work on that tombstone..

Powers such as mana, protection, magic, and stamina..

There are very few heroes who can bear a weight of at least several hundred kilograms, perhaps more, with their bare body..

…Mir Giant, that young hero with the bloodline of a giant was able to do that..

then…….

“form a line!”

Jack ordered loudly..

If the feed dies, you will naturally take over as acting general manager..

Only now did I realize that obvious fact..

Finally, there was hope and a chance of victory..

It was a small possibility, less than 1%, at best, but it was okay..

“Giant girl, protect Mir Giant!”

Because heroes are accustomed to this absurdity.

* * *

Ymir's camouflage, right after leaving [Eternal Winter].

I suddenly felt heat.

At first, I thought my body had lost its taste. I walked for ten more hours in a state of blurred consciousness..

It's not unusual to feel a burning sensation in overworked muscles..

But it wasn't.

“…….”

How on earth should I accept this scene??

I suddenly saw lava in front of me..

It's boiling lava that looks like it's going to melt very slowly if you touch it..

I almost froze right before. Suddenly it's lava…….

Have I finally lost my mind?.

That thought occurred to me for a moment, but in my daze, I also thought of this..

…Well, it would be perfect to take a dip..
