Helmut
Episode 478
“You’re splashing dirty sand!”
Asuka grumbled and plunged her sword into the guy’s body.
When sand pours in like this, it is difficult to see properly.
Protect your eyes with your eyesight, and avoid or block the rest with your senses.
It was impossible to count how many monsters I had defeated on the way here.
But it was on a carriage.
As I moved my legs freely and swung my sword, my sense of battle came to life keenly.
Not only that, but everyone else was like that. They were moving nimbly and dealing with him effectively.
Although it is a powerful monster, it has virtually no combat experience.
Moreover, the battle with the swordsman who uses Vis.
“Where on earth is this guy’s nucleus?”
Levant frowned.
Black blood poured down from every cut he made.
But compared to his body, his sword is the size of a toothpick. He will have to be beaten for a long time to kill him.
It was simpler to destroy the core and cut off the line.
Luke Yeager responded.
“I don’t know about that, but if we block the entrance to the demon world, wouldn’t it make it weaker?”
“Slow guy, hurry up!”
Asuka glanced towards Xian and shouted. Before they knew it, they were talking comfortably.
[It’s boring.]
Elaga was sitting behind Sian’s back with her tail curled. She was enjoying her time alone for a long time.
I did all sorts of things I had never done before with horses and carriages.
He deserved a moment of relaxation from such an important task.
While using my body to block the sandstorm heading towards Xian.
Sian said at some point.
“Almost done.”
A strong energy was still surging from his body, given down by the spirit of the earth.
That energy seeped through his hands, into the earth, and rushed through the gates of the demon world.
he asked, still with his hands on the floor.
“Elaga, you know what you have to do, right?”
Elaga turned around. And she made eye contact with Sian.
Sian’s eyes had a subtle iridescent sheen.
A being who wears Xian’s body and speaks with his mouth, but is not him.
Elaga narrowed her eyes.
[It is the spirit of the earth. I guess he’s friendly with Lumen.]
A smile appeared at the corner of Xian’s mouth.
“This is for the sake of this land where you were born and raised. Please help me.”
[You ask the monster to do all sorts of things. Anyway, I got it.]
Elaga walked around and moved her feet.
A loud noise was echoing from behind.
A battle between three people and a tentacle monster.
Regardless, this place was peaceful.
Elaga stood on top of the door without any hindrance.
The door had cracks here and there, so it looked like it would break if he, his huge body, stepped on it, but it was surprisingly intact.
As soon as he sat there on his haunches, the black pillar became a blur. As if the flow was blocked.
It was like that. Elaga’s existence is a pressure stone.
All the rulers of the region were like that. They are a huge mass of demon energy, and they are the beings that were pressing down on the entrance to the demon world.
As Elaga and Igrel left the forest of Pahe, the pressing stone disappeared, a gap appeared in the barrier, and the entrance to the demon world opened.
So if you come back, the opposite is also possible.
Elaga sat on top of the door and absorbed the surrounding demonic energy.
His demonic nature, which had grown over a thousand years, was still strong enough to accept more demonic energy.
The moment Elaga rapidly sucked in demonic energy and the surrounding atmosphere became a vacuum, the intense energy flowing from Xian’s body instantly rushed in.
Right below Elaga’s body, to the gate of the demon world.
Paaaa!
It was a blinding light. It was the power of nature, the power of the earth.
The original earth was sleeping beneath the magic that covered the forest of Pahe.
The power gathered in one place and closed the gaping entrance.
Soon the flow of demonic energy was blocked. The black pillar disappeared.
As a result, the supply from the infinite source of demonic energy was cut off.
Grrrr!
The watchman belatedly sensed the situation and turned around.
The entrance was not completely closed.
As long as the Demon King exists up there, the entrance cannot be closed anyway.
They are only temporarily blocking the entrance by forcibly blocking it.
Because of that, Xian and Elaga were unable to fight.

The watchman turned around. If we just get those two out of the way, it will be resolved.
But things didn’t go as planned. The three human swordsmen who were fighting him had blocked the road.
Levant asked coldly.
“You dare think you can pass me?”
“Oh, that sounded kind of cool.”
Asuka was impressed, and Luke Yeager also asked with a grin.
“The Demon King’s power has been cut off. Isn’t your wound recovering now?”
Now the conditions were similar to those of Levant and Ascana themselves.
If you cut and tear the entire body with a sword, you will be able to find the core. Then this guy is finished too.
Asuka said.
“Let’s finish it quickly and rest.”
Without even thinking about who would go first, the three people grabbed their swords and rushed at the guy.
Leaving aside the loud background noise, Elaga suddenly looked up at the sky.
His work is done.
‘Now it’s your turn, Helmut.’
I don’t feel anxious. Because she didn’t raise Helmut so weakly.
Elaga waited, acknowledging Helmut almost as if for the first time.
And at the same time, a struggle was taking place above.
* * *
Kuoooooo!
The golem was soaring into the sky with a sharp sound.
It rotates in a spiral with a black pillar next to it and flies upward.
Heike and Area held the magic stone in their hands and poured magic power into the golem.
Alea narrowed her eyes.
“Air resistance… … “It’s not that easy.”
“That’s because two forces are conflicting up there.”
Heike received the words and calmly looked at the situation above.
Levina clung to the golem’s saddle, trying to see the situation above.
It was difficult to open my eyes due to the strong wind.
Because she had not tied herself to the golem in preparation for an emergency, her body stumbled at some point.
At that time, a hand reached out from behind and supported her back.
“ah… … ! thank you.”
Helmut didn’t respond and didn’t even look at her, just staring up there.
The clash of swirling demonic energy and divine power was vividly felt on my skin.
The power of the heavenly divine power was stubborn and powerful, but the Demon King, who received constant power from the black pillar, was challenging Lumen by burning infinite demonic energy.
It was a clash between the Demon King and Lumen.
‘The situation is interesting.’
The power that seeks to destroy the world and the power that protects the world.
But ironically, the former saved him, and the latter tried to kill him. How many times.
But he was now on Lumen’s side.
‘No, I’m not on Lumen’s side.’
I’m fighting for myself.
Helmut made a promise.
Before we knew it, they were heading towards the peak. The end of the black pillar was visible.
It is even clear that the power flowing from the end resides in the devil.
The two wizards, Area and Heike, poured out their magical power, overcoming resistance and approaching the Demon King.
The sight seen from the outside and the sight seen from the inside were very different.
From the highest ceiling of the dome-shaped sacred barrier, the swirling abyss colliding with the pure white sacred barrier was clearly visible.
It was a strange and majestic sight that caught my attention in an instant. This is like the embodiment of a myth.
The moment we reached the target point, Area let out a breath.
She and Heike are creating a barrier that protects them from surrounding pressure. Because of this, her magic power was quickly worn down.
Even though Heike is with them, they are like that, so as soon as the barrier disappears, they will fall straight down as if they are bent.
Area frowned as she spread magic with one hand and took out a magic stone with the other.
“Is it still far down?”
“Levina, you need to get ready.”
Heike looked back at Levina.
Now the bird has stopped rising. It was flapping its wings horizontally, with its body slightly tilted.
Levina slowly stood up. She was so far down that she could not be seen properly, filled with her black mist.
Thanks to this, I felt less distant and was able to overcome the fear of suddenly standing in a high place.
Also, the burden of fighting against a powerful enemy with the fate of the world at stake.
She knew what she had to do, just as Sian and Elaga knew what they had to do.
There was determination in her eyes.
Her eyes were clear and her mind was clear.
She will fulfill her mission as a high priest. Without hesitation, even if it means burning her life.
Helmut also stood up and drew his sword.
Wizards don’t have the power. He and his High Priest had to do it.
If the entrance to the demon world is closed from below, the demon lord will be isolated above.
Although it is receiving power from the demon energy gathered from outside, even for a moment, the momentum will be pushed back by the sacred barrier.
In order for the divine magic to completely burn the Demon King, he had to pave the way for it to reach the Demon King. As a sword.
That is its role. The group was finding their place naturally, as if they had received foresight.
Helmut is like that too.
Levina, standing side by side on the bird’s back, looked back at Helmut.
“I don’t mind if I do it alone.”
“I guess I care.”
It’s not about helping her. The idea is to increase the possibility.
Helmut made that point clear in his calm tone.
Levina shook her head.
“I am concerned that you may be controlled by the devil.”
He is the one with the sprouts of darkness. Even though it was sealed, the Demon King was very close.
If Helmut swings his sword at Levina, she will not be able to block it.
It is the Paladins who are good at close combat, not the High Priests.
“I will not allow that to happen.”
The devil cannot rule over himself.
Helmut was a swordsman and the strongest swordsman among humans.
His vis is a power that cannot be controlled.
This will confirm to the end that your worries were just worries.
Helmut was adamant.
As if declaring to a temple that had been hostile towards him for only seeing his ominous potential.
Levina’s eyes trembled. After biting her lip once, she opened her mouth.
“Helmut, you may not want to, but… … “I just want to say this.”
Helmut met her gaze.
Levina’s eyes were gentle and strangely warm. It was a look she had never shown him before.
“I’m sorry. Not as a high priest, but as a human Levina. To you as a baby, and to you four years ago.”
As a high priest, she did the right thing, but now she doesn’t know if it was right.
Didn’t Helmut prove it himself?
He survived and is in control of his sanity.
Lumen did not reject him. What he rejected was the temple.
However, it was not the high priest but the human Levina who could admit that fact.
