Episode 279
EPISODE.140
Inside a city that was completely ruined. A soldier walking along the crumbling wall trembled and muttered in the atmosphere.
“It’s eerie, like something is going to pop out at any moment.”
The Ten Seals who were walking ahead of him shouted in a low voice.
“Stop making noise and keep moving.”
However, the face of the Ten Seals who said that did not look very good either.
It has to be that way.
Although it had already been almost ten years since he served in the military, it was his first time seeing a city transformed like this.
I liked the crumbling castle walls and the buildings with spider webs hanging here and there.
The same goes for the eerie atmosphere, as if something might jump out at any moment.
However, despite this, the thing that makes my heart sink is─.
‘That’s an eggshell…’ … ‘Is this a long stretch of mucus?’
gulp.
There were huge eggshells lying all over the village, and slime substances flowing out from them.
Rubble that was broken and smashed, and everything inside seemed to have fallen out.
Judging by its size, which was large enough to fit a single person, it was clear that this was the egg of the monster mentioned in the rumor.
There is a rumor that the entire population of the territory was turned into monsters in an instant.
‘The population of the County of Flora… … .’
The County of Flora was a fairly sizable large city located near the imperial capital of the empire.
If it weren’t for what happened just now, it would have been nearly impossible for even Endymion’s army to enter the County of Flora.
If the entire population of a city of that size were turned into monsters… … .
“Hmm.”
A moan escaped the lips of the ten seals as they estimated the number.
Moreover, the County of Flora was not the only place where something like this happened.
It is said that this phenomenon occurred in almost all cities located near the imperial capital of the empire… … .
It was at that moment that I suddenly felt my bones being flushed.
Ujikkeun!
With a loud sound, the wooden pillars supporting the building collapsed and a pile of rubble fell upon the soldiers.
“danger… … !”
The Ten Seals tried to shout at the sight, but it was already too late.
If there is no other way, other soldiers will be crushed by the falling rubble!
Woe!
The wind that blew stopped the falling stones as if they had a will.
Wind attribute magical power that stops stones weighing several tons without incident.
“This, this… … ?”
The soldiers, who were holding their heads and preparing for impact, muttered in bewildered tones.
Above them, a girl flying, relying on a pure white teddy bear, spoke.
“be careful.”
It was Amelia Merwin, the tower owner of the royal capital, White Tower.
Hiss-.
She, who saved the soldiers and flew away without any trouble, landed next to Daria and said.
“Soon. sister.”
Daria nodded at her words.
As the saying goes.
The only thing that stood between Count Flora and the imperial capital was a hill of some size and a granary area beyond it.
That means.
This means that if you just go over that hill behind the county, the imperial capital will be within visible range.
This is a story about just 20 days ago when the monsters all changed direction and flocked to the imperial capital.
The monsters spread throughout the empire’s territory have gathered in one place, so what does the imperial capital look like now?
It didn’t take long before I could see it with my own eyes.
“That… … .”
As you climb the hill, the view below comes into view.
The vast granary that the empire was proud of no longer existed there.
Instead, the only thing filling the place are monsters as numerous as grains of wheat.
Seeing the sight of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of monsters swarming around made me feel excited.
“Wow… … .”
At that sight, Amelia Merwin unconsciously covered her mouth, and Daria stared at the area with deeply sunken eyes.
This is because the atmosphere was too quiet for such a large number of monsters gathered together.
Monsters looking at one place as if possessed by something.
The eyes of the monsters were all focused on the imperial capital of the empire.
Exciting… … .
“It’s Al.”
Hemingway muttered in an uneasy voice.
As said, the purple pillar of light that had been reported was not visible in the ecliptic beyond the granary area.
Instead, what catches the eye is an incredibly gigantic egg.
Exciting… … .
An egg so large that it covered about half of the ecliptic with just its shadow was pulsating as regularly as a heart.

The monsters that occupied the granary were staring at the egg.
“Huh. “Are you at least worshiping the monster?”
Hemingway said that without even realizing it, as he saw that extremely ominous appearance. Daria opened her mouth in a low voice.
“… … Inspiration.”
“Hmm?”
“Whatever that egg is, doesn’t it seem like there’s any good in letting it hatch? “Get the magic corps ready.”
The reason I specifically mentioned the magic corps was simple.
In order to hit the egg, you had to jump over the vast granary area and attack, but swordsmen’s auras or ordinary arrows wouldn’t reach that far.
The only person who can intercept that distance with an arrow would be Arain, Meneur of the elves, and among sword masters, only some who have learned flying sword skills would be able to do so.
“I understand.”
Hemingway nodded at the instructions of Daria, the commander-in-chief, and gave an order, and soon a flag rose high.
fluttering-.
The command signal spread along the flag fluttering in the wind, and along with it, the same flag was raised among the Allied troops spread out along the hill.
The appearance of the flag covering half of the ecliptic like an old moon was a signal that the magic corps was ready.
At the same time, a huge amount of magical energy poured out through the hands of Daria and other archmages.
Starting with that, the other two wizards also prepared magic on both sides… … .
Quaaaaaaa.
The atmosphere is unusually turbulent as the million-strong allied forces gathered here and all the magicians included use their magical powers simultaneously.
The first ride was, of course, Daria.
────────────!
As soon as the magical power of the flame was released from the grasp, oval-shaped shock waves exploded in layers.
Supersonic speed.
The attack, which far exceeds the speed of sound, carves a clear trajectory under the purple sky and identifies the target.
Half a beat later, the magic corps’ fire began.
Quagwagwagwang!
A barrage of all colors falls on the ecliptic of the empire, energizing the earth with an explosion.
Sand dust rose high.
It was an attack that hundreds of wizards struck without the slightest error.
If you were hit directly by an attack like this, no matter how powerful you were, you wouldn’t be safe.
Rumbling!
As if the earth’s axis had been twisted, aftershocks occurred non-stop and the earth continued to tremble.
Kkukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
Sensing something strange, the monsters all turned their heads.
They flocked towards the hill, showing intense hostility.
Doo doo doo doo!
“Oh, here it comes!”
“Ready for battle, ready for battle!”
The commanders who were leading the soldiers were frightened and shouted as they saw millions of monsters rushing in like a tidal wave.
Meanwhile, the great wizards, including Daria, were not taking their eyes off the place where the sand dust rose.
The being inside the egg could be more dangerous than the millions of monsters that are flocking here now.
It was because I instinctively noticed it.
That moment.
It’s a meaningless struggle by mortals… … .
Rumbling rumbling!
A voice rang out.
Coo coo coo coo ───────!
With the sound of the voice, the closed sky splits once again, revealing a huge eye.
Crimson eyes that seem to look down on the entire earth from high in the sky.
Wow-.
The sandy dust was swept away by the blowing wind.
Then, the image of the Imperial Capital, where magic fire was pouring down, came into clear sight.
The structures of the Imperial Capital, which were more than half destroyed and almost completely destroyed, were seen rolling around in their places.
but… … .
“You’re fine?!”
In fact, there wasn’t even a scratch on the huge egg located in the center.
Sigh, blah blah blah.
It slowly walked out with the sound of something cracking.
Black hair and black eyes.
A man whose appearance is quite different from that of the races on this continent.
A cultist wearing the shell of Kim Hyun-seong, a savior from another world.
Vlad Draculea.
“hmm.”
It’s been a long time since I came back to this body, Vlad muttered as he moved his fingers leisurely as an experiment.
Then, the black flag, which had been reduced to tatters by gunfire, wrapped around his naked body as if it were clothing, asked as he faced some of the Allied forces surrounding him.
“I see that the Dragon Emperor is nowhere to be seen… … “Is he dead?”
A grinning laugh.
No one really knew why he called Russell the Dragon Emperor.
However, the story about Russell was like a painful twist for Daria.
“──────I’m dying!”
With a scream, Daria brought her hands together at one point.
『Daria Snowwhite』
『Deciding Battle, Final Chapter』
『White Snow’s group dance.』
Whioooooooo-!
White snow sprayed out like a storm along the fluttering hem of the clothes.
Just by touching it, it dulls your magic power and senses, and melts and burns your flesh… … The decisive battle of Daria, who possesses both fire and ice.
The final form has finally been revealed.
The snow that was pouring out in all directions soon gathered to one point, forming a large circle.
The place where they converge is where the cultist, Vlad Draculea!
Whioooooo!
The target was just one guy, but in the aftermath of what happened, all the monsters in the path melted one by one.
It was then.
“hmm.”
The guy who was looking at the group of people flocking towards him calmly raised his hand.
Then, the moment he points his finger horizontally.
──────────Sigh.
The snow storm that had been raging exploded like a sheet of paper and disappeared.
Suddenly!
Then, Daria’s gray hair, which was flying towards the sky, was cut off from the top of her head.
─────────Kwagwagwagwang!
Half a beat later, there was an explosion of something collapsing.
As I unconsciously turned my head back, I saw that a huge mountain range stretching beyond the hill was completely collapsing.
Rumbling rumbling.
What if that attack had directly hit an ally?
The ground on which you stand may have collapsed, causing tens of thousands of casualties.
Enough imagination to make all the Allied Forces feel bitter.
“hmm… … .”
However, the cultist who carried out such an attack was just looking at his fingers with a sour expression on his face.
“Wow, it’s not easy to control since it’s been so long. “I missed it.”
The guy who muttered that looked at the alliance and opened his mouth.
“You can look forward to it.”
The next attack will definitely not miss, he declared.
and… … .
Two weeks have passed.
