EP.137
“Judith-!”
Nolan shouted and approached Judith. Ruid stretched out his hand into the air.
“Don’t move.”
Numerous grains of elements were created immediately around the area. Each one was powerful enough to blow up this entire area. Nolan stopped moving.
Upon seeing that, Luid’s expression softened a little.
“…I apologize for trespassing into the North on my own.”
List took a step forward.
“But it is hasty to attack someone without listening to anything they say.”
“Because you don’t listen through words.”
Ruid lightly snapped his fingers. The number of elemental particles, which were already numerous, has doubled.
“That’s why! “Suddenly it makes sense to kill people!”
A vein rose in Nolan’s neck.
Ruid glanced slightly and answered calmly.
“I didn’t kill him.”
“what?”
Following Ruid’s gesture, Winter was slowly pulled out of the abdomen.
Not even a little blood flowed from Judith’s empty abdomen.
Just a few pieces of ice fell to the ground.
“Judith!”
“I’m fine.”
Judith coughed and sat down.
“For now.”
Ruid was actually angry to the end.
But he was still barely able to maintain his senses.
That was the innate brain power of ‘Lazy Ruid’.
‘There were a total of 5 Knights of the Garter who infiltrated. There are three people here. ‘I don’t think he’s a fool to kill people in the North and walk around the streets nonchalantly, so there’s a good chance that the two who killed Colon are the remaining two.’
If you kill these three here, the whereabouts of the remaining two will be unknown.
Ruid knew very well what was important.
“Right now…?”
“The wound is frozen, so you won’t die right away. But the cold of winter is becoming increasingly contagious. “It will spread throughout the body within an hour.”
Judith touched the wound with trembling hands. The ice block was getting closer and closer to the heart.
“What a scary little child.”
“What do you want?”
said Liszt.
“There must be two people other than you who have invaded the North. Bring it. Then I will save your life.”
“…I thought I’d ask just in case.”
Liszt was excessively calm.
He was so calm that it seemed as if the situation was no big deal.
“What are we going to do with those two?”
“I’m going to kill you. “In the cruelest way possible.”
“As expected.”
Liszt put a cigarette in his mouth.
“I really liked this cigarette, but it was disappointing.”
I lit it with a match and took a deep sip.
“amazed.”
“Yes, leader.”
Nolan felt relieved that Judith was still alive, but he still seemed distraught.
“Do you remember what we said earlier?”
Ruid just watched List as he suddenly started talking.
This was because he thought he had the initiative in this situation.
“What did you say earlier…?”
“Shearer. Although he is consumed by madness, his skills are real. “Maybe it could be the only solution to prevent human disaster.”
“What do you mean by that all of a sudden?”
“I think it actually went well. A genius obsessed with madness is rapidly improving his skills even at this very moment.”
Shearer Panther.
A young boy with the skills of a knight commander at the age of 16.
He had a natural talent for swords.
But there was only one weakness: lack of purpose.
He simply swings his sword because he knows this is what he does best.
There is no noble will or reason to make any effort.
But this time it happened.
But how could I not be happy?
That was Liszt’s true intention.
“I am sorry, but I have decided that one Shearer is worth more than the lives of both of you. Shearer. “That kid is the most powerful person to deal with Windsor.”
“…!”
Nolan’s pupils dilated. I muttered, looking up in disbelief.
“leader?”

“Lude Christopher Windsor.”
Before I knew it, Liszt’s sword was piercing Nolan.
“Do you consider yourself strong?”
Nolan’s blood flowed onto List’s sword, gradually turning darker.
Luid’s eyes burned blue.
The magic power mixed with Nolan’s blood was transferred to List’s sword, creating powerful power.
“Do you think you can achieve everything you want?”
“The 5th magic-”
Dozens of complicated magic circles overlapped behind Ruid’s back.
“No noble family can be higher than the empire. “You underestimated the Empire too much.”
List pulled the sword from Nolan’s body.
“The Duke of Windsor will ultimately meet its end due to its own arrogance.”
At that moment, Ruid, who had finished casting, let out a short sigh.
“[Time stops]”
Paat –
A wave of blue magic covered the entire city.
Ruid looked straight ahead with indifferent eyes.
The tip of List’s sharp sword was just before it touched his forehead.
“That’s ridiculous.”
Nolan, who was applying pressure to the stab wound, was shocked.
The list was stained gray. It was completely frozen in the air, as if time had truly stopped.
Nolan was right. Ruid only stopped the list’s time.
I didn’t want to kill it because it seemed like it knew a lot, and I didn’t want to leave it alone because I thought it was going to do something.
So, time stopped.
‘Anyway, I’ve changed too.’
Even though he knew that this thing couldn’t harm him, it was surprising that he wasn’t scared even though there was a sharp blade right in front of him.
“Wizard. Aren’t you on the same side? “Why are you guys fighting among yourselves?”
Ruid asked Nolan.
Nolan had already recovered by casting a healing spell on himself.
“…Damn, I don’t even know what it is.”
“If you lie…”
“I think there would be a jerk in this situation who would lie!”
Nolan shouted, startling Ruid.
“Is there no other way than to ask directly?”
Ruid’s emotionless eyes turned to the list where time had stopped.
“[clear]”
Immediately, List’s sword made contact with Ruid’s barrier.
Let’s go!
It sounded like metal being ground. List’s sword could not advance.
Ruid’s automatic barrier sensed a crisis and responded.
What was surprising was that of the four levels of barriers that Ruid usually wore on his body, the innermost one reacted first.
This made no physical sense.
“It seems like the power is of the space type.”
List clicked his tongue and took a step back. He glanced at Nolan, who had healed his wounds, and smiled self-deprecatingly.
“It seems like time stopped for a moment.”
“huh.”
“It can’t be this unreasonable.”
“Just give up. “You can’t beat me.”
Ruid stated the obvious.
Liszt was a much stronger person than Charon, but then and now are different.
Unlike back then, when I was half-hearted and unprepared, now all I could think about was to find the people who killed Colon.
“amazed. Cast the mass destruction spell.”
Nolan bit his molars hard. I grabbed Liszt’s left arm.
“Isn’t there something you need to tell me before that?”
“I guess so.”
List nodded and said in agreement.
“Sacrifice for the empire. Nolan and Judith.”
There was no time for Ruid to react.
The list disappeared as if it had been uttered on the spot.
There was a sound of air being torn from behind.
But Ruid didn’t care.
It is impossible to pierce one’s own barrier with List’s sword.
No, even if you can break through it, you can definitely block it once.
It’s that kind of magic.
Kang!
However, the sound that was immediately heard was not the sound of the barrier and the sword touching, but the sound of the sword touching the sword.
Ruid slowly looked back.
Judith, sweating coldly, was blocking Liszt’s sword with one hand.
“…?”
Ruid didn’t understand the situation for a moment and tilted his head.
While blocking Liszt’s sword, Judith tilted her head towards Ruid.
He narrowed one eye and spoke in a trembling voice.
“You can rest assured now. “Because my sister will protect me.”
“Judith. “Is it a protest?”
“It’s a protest. “I’m protecting myself from a crazy superior who kills his subordinates.”
“I guess they judged that there was a higher chance of survival.”
“maybe? Maybe so. “More than anything, you’ll definitely be a much cooler driver if you stand by a child.”
“I can’t possibly call it foolish. however.”
List threw out his sword and at the same time struck Judith’s waist with a roundhouse kick.
bang!
Judith’s body was buried in the wall.
“What can you do with that body?”
“Judith!”
Murder lingered in Nolan’s eyes.
“You’re joking too much! leader!”
“Does this seem like a joke?”
Ruid used the barrier towards Nolan.
however-
Suddenly!
Nolan suffered a deep cut in his chest and blood spurted out.
‘It works too, doesn’t it?’
If Charon’s power was dispel, then List cuts down space itself.
The barrier located in the innermost part of Ruid’s body is not simple magic. The concentrated magical power itself firmly protects the skin.
So, although it was impossible to cut down Ruid, it seemed like any normal wizard could kill him.
Rather, what kind of emotions did Ruid feel when looking at the current situation?
I feel sick and my head feels hot.
“It’s unpleasant.”
Ruid scratched his head.
“Why do you keep ignoring me?”
List quietly took his stance.
“I was sure to ask where Galahad and Shearer were.”
“Do you think you’ll tell me?”
“Oh, I don’t need it anymore.”
Ruid threw his hands in the air as if he was annoyed.
A lot of black things appeared in the air, as if there were holes.
“I understand. “The only thing that is important to you is the empire.”
“You’re saying something new.”
“So we’re going to destroy the empire until those two come out.”
“…what?”
“You did that earlier, right? “Don’t underestimate the empire.”
Ruid spoke in a low voice.
“I’ll give it back exactly as it was said. “Don’t think you can get away with messing with the people of Windsor.”
Ruid’s great magic was completed with those words.
The black holes all pointed in certain directions.
Exactly the direction the empire is located.
Each one contains extraordinary magical power.
“Cough.”
Nolan did not dare to raise his head due to the enormous magical power and vomited blood.
“Select.List.”
Even without explaining what this magic was, it was predictable enough from the amount of magical power.
This magic can erase the empire from this world.
in other words-
“It’s the Empire.”
Ruid decided to take the empire hostage.
