Helmut: The Forsaken Child Chapter 434

Helmut

Episode 434

The fight is over. His premonitions turned out to be correct. He will return as a winner.

Helmut put the sword in his belt and exhaled.

“The revenge was successful.”

The name of the high priest he killed was Paul. He was one of the high priests who sent Darion to the Forest of Pahe.

I heard it from Dolos’ mouth, so it must be true.

Isn’t his return an opportunity given by heaven to Helmut to complete his revenge?

‘Should I say this is an opportunity given by Lumen?’

Ironically, Lumen seemed to be on Helmut’s side.

After leaving the sacred barrier for the second time, everything went smoothly.

It was as if the flow of the world had turned towards Helmut. Strangely enough, my mind was clear. As if the fog that had been blocking my vision had cleared.

Helmut took a step forward without thinking. That moment,

“Ugh.”

A moan escaped between my teeth. The pain she had forgotten rose up in a hot rush.

Traces of the divine magic that struck his back remained clearly on his body. My entire skin was tingling, as if my iron had been used, and even my bones were throbbing.

I will never forget that excruciating pain.

At the moment when Paul’s divine magic struck, Helmut faced a crisis.

Since it was right after breaking through Agato’s sacred barrier, the reaction was bound to be slow.

Holy magic hit his back, and his body floated.

Holy magic ate ​​away at his skin and burrowed inside.

As if all the demonic energy within his body would be melted away with powerful purifying power.

His Vis resisted with all his might, but it was not easy to defend since it had already allowed the penetration of divine power.

But then, something unexpected happened. The bracelet shattered on his wrist.

Quasak!

The bracelet’s magic created a magic barrier on Helmut’s body and drove out divine power.

Magical power is not a power that can be unilaterally consumed by divine power like demonic energy. So it wasn’t a great magic, but it was enough to disturb the sacred magic a little.

As soon as Helmut lifted Vis up and shook off the divine power, he flew away.

Toward the high priest who is turning his back on me. The sword was still in his hand.

And what happened after that, this situation was telling.

Helmut frowned, suppressed the pain, and repeated her name to himself.

‘Area… … .’

She helped Helmut without knowing where he was. No, I thought I knew.

Seeing as the temple hastily retreated. This is definitely not a coincidence.

I think I’ll have to get an explanation when I get back. Also about this bracelet.

Helmut looked down at his arms, which had been bare for the first time in a long time.

It was strange to see him without a bracelet. Even though there was a time when I thought of that bracelet as a shackle.

And today, the bracelet can be said to have done its job.

It felt like I had poured all the way to the bottom for the first time in a very long time. She was extremely tired.

“I won anyway.”

Helmut did what he had to do.

An unknown cool wind blew into his chest, but Helmut was satisfied with it.

* * *

The temple’s forces were retreating. Alonso, the commander of the Black Wing Knights, took a deep breath and looked at the situation.

There was no time to chase down the enemy and hold on to his tail.

‘What happened?’

This side was absolutely outnumbered, and although they made a good save, they would naturally fall behind as time went by.

However, the temple army retreated. It speaks of Linosa’s victory and Temple’s defeat at the same time.

Alonso slowly looked back, connecting the situation in front of him with the previous situation.

Helmut, the starting point of the war, disappeared among the enemies.

Gray vis rising as if covering the sword. His dance, which seemed to split the sea and open a path, was amazing.

The people of Linosa who witnessed this trembled with fear.

It was Linosa’s successor. He was also a self-proclaimed swordsman.

However, I couldn’t hastily chase after him as he disappeared into the temple’s army.

If they are surrounded, they are outnumbered and have no way to escape.

‘Don’t worry about how I act, just command your troops.’

Before the war started, Helmut had already told him.

Alonso obeyed him. Since there is an archduke in the back line, the troops cannot be extended for a long time.

It is impossible to wage war without sacrifices, but it was his role to minimize them.

‘Mass the troops and attack from the front and follow the archduke.’

Even if it is a little slow, we will unite and break through rather than struggling and scattering.

The Black Wing Knights and the soldiers of Linosa fought fiercely.

As Helmut penetrated the temple’s army and scattered it, the enemies were unable to concentrate entirely on this side. Of course, it has become easier to deal with.

Thanks to that, I was able to endure it quite well. So much so that she felt like she had the upper hand.

However, their vis and stamina were limited, and the number of enemies was extremely large.

Holy magic raises fallen enemies and gives them strength as long as they do not end their lives. That’s why the temple’s army was powerful.

But Helmut surpassed their strength.

The temple’s army, a straight line heading towards the high priests in the center.

Because it was successful, aren’t they backing down?

‘Then what about the Archduke?’

Alonso, anxious, ran his horse.

Even if Helmut is dead and the temple has achieved its original purpose, this retreat is unexplained.

If it were a temple, it would be enough to capture even the Grand Duke of Rinosa and place Michael in his place.

In front of me, I saw a tall figure standing tall.

Black armor like the Black Wing Knights. However, the archduke’s family emblem was clearly engraved on it.

Hair as black as the abyss.

Alonso, spotting him, quickly approached and jumped off his horse.

“Grand Duke. “Are you okay?”

“As you can see.”

Helmut’s attitude as he looked back was detached. He acted as if the incredible dance he performed was nothing.

Looking into his black eyes, Alonso was speechless.

‘How can you fight against the temple’s army alone and still be so fine?’

It felt as if I was standing in front of a large, non-human being.

It gave me the eerie feeling of seeing a monster.

Even though the Helmut in front of him is not an enemy, he is the successor of Rinosa that he must serve.

The strength that seemed like something out of a myth actually gave rise to hesitation.

Helmut continued indifferently.

“Maybe something happened to their temple. “Seeing you retreat like this.”

“You mean the temple? “Then what about the ministers?”

“excuse me.”

Helmut gestured.

Alonso then noticed a high priest lying a few steps away and a decapitated body next to him.

It was obvious that he would stand out in his pure white clothes, but what he had now discovered was that Helmut’s presence had captured his entire nerves.

“It’s alive. Block the divine power and imprison it. “You will be a useful hostage.”

“I will follow your orders.”

“and… … .”

Helmut, who was about to say something, suddenly fell forward.

“The Archduke!”

Alonso quickly supported Helmut’s body. He was stretched out like a doll and was already unconscious. He could hardly feel any vis on his whole body.

Alonso realized that Helmut was not in perfect condition.

“What happened to Helmut?”

The Archduke, who appeared late, hastily got off his horse. Alonso, who measured Helmut’s pulse, responded.

“I just suddenly lost my strength and lost consciousness. “You just need to get treatment.”

Alonso realized that Helmut, who seemed like a monster or something transcendent, was actually a human being.

No matter how strong he was, there was no way he could break through the temple’s army alone and come out unscathed.

The Archduke looked at Helmut and the fallen minister at the same time with a somber expression.

High Priest Agato was captured and taken away by those brought by the Archduke, and his body was recovered.

The Archduke, who had been lost in thought as he watched Helmut being loaded into the carriage, soon opened his mouth.

“I guess I’ll have to ask for reinforcements.”

Rinosa single-handedly defeated the temple’s army. That fact will soon become known throughout the continent.

“Going back to Latona.”

The Archduke declared. It was time to put the war behind us.

* * *

Helmut came to his senses right after the recovery magic was poured on me.

As soon as he opened his eyes, the wizard shouted at him in a panic as he immediately looked for his sword.

“Sashimi, I just used recovery magic.”

Only then did Helmut, who confirmed that his wounds were healed, raise his upper body.

He put the sword next to him back on his waist and realized where he was.

It was in a carriage.

The wizard spat out an explanation on his own.

“We are almost to Latona. “You weren’t unconscious that long.”

It must have really been a short period of time.

The blow must have been worse than he thought, as he was lying down defenseless and unconscious.

The pain is now completely gone. As we escaped the atmosphere filled with divine power, Vis was slowly recovering.

Helmut leisurely stayed in his seat until the carriage opened the gates of Latona and passed through.

The carriage was surrounded by Black Wing Knights. As I passed through the streets and headed towards the royal castle, I heard shouts pouring in from all directions.

Since they were up against a temple, curses might have been poured out, but everyone was praising Rinosa’s victory and the performance of the Black Wing Knights.

There were also blessings for Grand Duke Rinosa and his successor.

The carriage entered the castle grounds and soon stopped. A wizard who received a message from somewhere spoke to Helmut.

“His Majesty the Grand Duke has ordered you to return to your residence and rest. “He wants to see you after you recover.”

Now that I think about it, it appears that this person was a wizard under the direct command of the Grand Duke.

“okay.”

Helmut stood up willingly.

Take a good rest in the most comfortable place. Helmut was desperately hungry for just that one thing.

Upon returning to his quarters, a familiar voice greeted Helmut.

[Hey, Helmut. Did you have a good time?]

“Who was playing?”

My eyebrows automatically lifted. A white cat slowly approached him with its tail raised and stood in front of him.

[You are a total mess.]

Elaga blurted out, looking the same as before, as if she had never been out before.

However, Helmut, who knew that he had moved with Area, could not shake off his suspicious feeling.

I felt a presence from inside the room. Helmut raised his head.

“Come on. great job.”

A beauty with silver hair approached with a soft voice. Area smiled at him.

There was a clear feeling that something was being hidden.

However, without questioning Helmut, he went straight into the room and lay down on the bed.

“I’m going to get some sleep.”

Eventually, it was a death-like sleep that consumed him.
