Chapter 33 Monster Army (1)

After Zion’s words, the meeting went smoothly.

Other members of the royal family also felt the need for a full-scale competition for the throne rather than a secret struggle, and Sion’s proposal was a perfect fit for that.

Therefore, even though Shion’s tone was annoying, they were able to accept the proposal without much resistance.

A clear advantage in the competition for the throne.

If they could gain that upper hand, the royal family had the confidence to start a war against demonic forces rather than the Seven Great Plagues.

“Then I will take the ‘Fortress of Death’ side.”

After a while, the first to speak was Rubrios.

His words were so firm, as if they had been decided in advance.

“Such unclean things cannot be allowed in this world created by Light. Even without that, it’s always been annoying, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get rid of it this time.”

‘Fortress of Death’ was a collective term for the undead army gathered under the lich Kerungil, known as the Immortal Lord.

It is located close to the Sea of ​​Water in the eastern part of the empire, and is a top-class dragon that causes tremendous harm to its surroundings just by existing.

At the first prince’s words, the others nodded without saying anything, as if they had expected that to happen.

‘Because from the beginning, ‘Fortress of Death’ was nothing short of a disaster tailored for Rubrios.’

The divine power of the God of Light was the opposite of all unclean things that existed in the world.

And the unclean things included not only demonic beings but also undead.

Therefore, if the 1st Prince can move the Holy Knights of the Church of Light, he will be able to deal with them much more easily than other royal family members.

“I was originally in charge of the giant rebels. So this time too… … .”

“Then I’m near the fairy forest…” … .”

Starting with Rubrios, other royal families also began to choose the disasters that were most advantageous to them.

It may be a coincidence, but the disasters they wanted rarely overlapped.

Therefore, the choice of disaster proceeded without much friction.

‘As expected, you choose that.’

Sion laughed inwardly as he looked at Utekan, who had a stern expression on his face as he chose the ‘Slaughter Cult’ among the disasters.

murder cult

It was a denomination whose first doctrine was the crazy belief that ‘the only true salvation is death’, and whose actions were very similar to Ouroboros.

It exists at the southern end of the empire, and perhaps because of its location, it is causing a level of damage that is difficult to ignore in the Demon Territory.

For Utecan, who chose to cry and eat mustard, this was probably the best.

At least the damage to the Demon Station can be reduced.

“… … Shion, of course you plan to participate in the subjugation, right? “Which one will you choose?”

Utekan asked Sion in a calm voice, as if he had barely regained his senses.

However, unlike him, deep in his eyes as he glared at Sion, there was such a huge murderous spirit that it wouldn’t be surprising if a spray of water was thrown at him right now.

Shion opened his mouth, feeling better at that sight.

“What’s left?”

“An army of snakes and monsters gnawing at roots. “It remains like this.”

Both of these were the most difficult to deal with among the six plagues.

That is why he was not chosen by the other royal family members and was probably the one left until the end.

The disaster could have been changed after raising objections, but Zion did not do that.

Because it was going exactly as expected.

‘Anyway, the snake that gnaws at the roots must be subdued by the warrior himself.’

Then there was only one thing left.

“Let’s make it an army of monsters.”

The voice that flows from Zion’s mouth.

There was an instant of doubt in the eyes of others.

Because I didn’t understand Zion’s choice.

Monster army.

As a group of monsters united around the monster king Horrible, they were only an army, but they were already larger than an army.

If the phantom army was difficult to deal with because you didn’t know where it would appear, it was really difficult because its power itself was stronger than other disasters.

What’s worse, is even a steel fortress housing an entire elite corps just struggling to stop an invasion?

If it were them, they would have unconditionally chosen the ‘snake gnawing at the roots’.

“really… … Would you take charge of that?”

“I don’t take back what I said.”

Evelyn asked again, but Sion’s answer did not change.

The suspicion deepened in the eyes of the royal family.

Anyone else might just think it was foolish or ambitious and move on, but Zion was different.

Over the past six months, they have already felt deeply how deep Zion’s heart is.

‘What on earth are you planning this time?’

With that thought in mind, Deanna glared at Sion, but Sion’s eyes were just as languid as usual and showed no emotion.

Of course, Zion didn’t answer that question.

“It looks like everything has been decided, so let’s end the meeting right away.”

Shion glanced at her and the other royal family members and stood up.

As a formality, the meeting had to last at least an hour, but Zion wasn’t one to worry about such things.

“To deal with a disaster, we need to prepare as quickly as possible.”

After saying those words and smiling slightly, Shion leaves the small conference room first.

Even after Zion completely disappeared from sight, other people’s eyes were following Zion’s back.

In front of a gateway on the outskirts of the capital.

“Do you really have to go now? “You can stay a little longer.”

There, Raine Dranir opened his mouth in a dissatisfied voice to the silver-haired woman.

Just like the voice, her eyebrows were furrowed, showing that she was in a bad mood.

“We have to leave right now.”

The woman answered him in an indifferent tone and walked towards the outside of the capital.

The woman knew why Lane was acting like this.

A thousand-year-old witch I met not long ago at a secret branch of Utecan, one of the five demonic spirits.

At that time, Lane lost the witch without winning.

That’s why he thinks he needs to stay in the capital to find the witch again.

‘No, it’s not that we missed it exactly, it’s that the witch let us go… … .’

The woman knew full well the power of Liu Sina Bloodwalker.

As a being who was once called the enemy of humanity, she already possesses power comparable to the seven heavens at this time, and when she awakens in the future and becomes the ‘Witch of the Apocalypse’, she is such a monster that she and all her colleagues will have to attack her.

If I were to evaluate it calmly, there was no way that a thousand-year-old witch couldn’t beat the current Rain.

‘I wonder what happened… … .’

It was full of things I couldn’t understand.

Why is a thousand-year-old witch in the capital?

Why are you hunting monsters?

Why did they just let them go even after seeing them?

‘Could it be that this is also related to Sion Agnes?’

I thought so because Sion Agnes was always behind every major change in the future, but the woman quickly erased that thought.

Because I didn’t know anything about the connection between the two until now.

“Just one day… … “Can’t you just stay one more day?”

Lane continues to fuss towards such a woman.

“It’s still tight. “We can’t delay here any longer.”

It was time for the woman to speak clearly once again.

“Is that really true? “A large-scale disaster suppression is being carried out in the imperial castle?”

The surroundings became noisy, and the sound of a conversation between two middle-aged men passing by reached the woman’s ears.

“Yeah, really? To be exact, the imperial family, not the imperial castle, is carrying out the subjugation. Most people speculated that it might be due to competition for the throne. “It just so happens that the throne is also empty.”

“Huh, the empire will be noisy for a while.”

“I think it would be fun? “Isn’t it very rare for the royal family to come out of the castle like this?”

“This person. Don’t go anywhere and say things like that. If you do something wrong… … .”

The sound of conversation naturally decreases as middle-aged people move away.

When the conversation becomes completely inaudible,

“Disaster… … Subdue them all?”

A questioning voice flowed from the woman’s frozen mouth.

* * *

Agnes subdues the royal family’s disaster.

The news quickly spread throughout the capital.

That’s because, although there have been cases where the royal family went out to suppress one disaster, it was very rare for the entire royal family to go out to suppress multiple disasters at the same time.

Therefore, the attention of people living in the empire, regardless of their status, could not help but be focused in this direction.

And not long after the news spread,

“His Majesty Rubrios is coming out of the imperial castle!”

“Princess Deanna will also appear after that!”

One by one, the royal family began heading towards the disaster they had been assigned to.

Originally, they would march slowly and show a basic performance for the sake of the many people waiting in front of the imperial castle to see them marching out.

“Hurry!”

The royal family, including Utekan, moved quickly, passing the crowd and leaving the capital.

That’s because this subjugation had the condition of being ‘the first’.

It was a competition for the throne, so there was no time to relax.

but,

“Here, take it, master.”

In fact, Sion, who was responsible for all of this, was leisurely climbing the steep mountain path in the north where the steel fortress existed with Liu Sina.

Unlike other royal family members, Zion moved only with the two of them.

That’s why I was able to start much faster than others.

Thanks to this, we had already arrived near our destination.

“how is it? “If you bring me, you can drink coffee on the go like this.”

Liu Sina, who had used magic to hand over freshly brewed coffee, puffed out her chest and spoke confidently.

It seemed like he was trying to use this opportunity to clearly appeal to Shion and increase the chances of them hanging out together.

In fact, this would have been impossible if the Twilight Swords had not come in under Sion.

Because they wouldn’t have been able to shift the mission to deal with the remnants of the Utecan secret force.

“It tastes good, right?”

In response to her question, Shion took a sip of coffee and spoke in a calm tone.

“No, this is the most trashy coffee I’ve ever had.”

Relentless words.

When I spoke calmly, it felt more merciless.

Maybe if I drink it cold, I will feel better,

-Tweet!

I tried lowering the temperature using the frost spirit… … .

“It’s still trash.”

It was just cold, tasteless coffee.

Liu Sina’s face, which had been confident in its own way, turned glum for a moment when she heard those words, but she couldn’t help it.

From the beginning, Shion did not tolerate the slightest compromise when it came to coffee.

Moreover, the taste was actually not as good as the one Priscilla used before.

“weird. It was fine before… … .”

Shion looked ahead, ignoring the woman who was sipping the remaining coffee next to him and making a puzzled expression.

‘Do you still want to be there?’

As Sion recalled information about the monster army he was planning to defeat this time, he also remembered ‘it’ that existed in the center where the monster army stayed.

The key to hunting Utekan and the biggest reason for choosing the Monster Corps.

If you only get ‘it’, you will be able to have a much bigger advantage than you have now when fighting Utekan.

‘Still, it will be difficult if you can’t raise Black Star to 4 stars or higher.’

After receiving treatment from the previous mysterious doctor and improving his body, the level of the Black Star had soared to the end of the 3-star level.

However, the wall leading to the 4th star had not yet been breached.

Sion planned to break through that wall through this battle with the monster army.

No matter what anyone says, the most important thing in raising one’s level was actual combat.

Now that the physical limitations are almost gone, if you break down the 4-star wall, you will be able to level up much more easily.

‘Also, learn how to use the newly acquired Dragon Explosion Spear.’

Amplification and expansion.

It seemed that these two powers contained in the Dragon Explosion Spear would have many uses in the future.

‘The first thing that comes to mind right now is the connection with the frost spirit… … .’

It was then.

“master.”

Liu Sina, who was next to him, quietly called out to Shion.

“That place… … “It’s the destination, right?”

There was a huge fortress visible at the tip of her finger.

It was a steel fortress.

But the condition of such a fortress was strange.

Kwagwagwagwagwang!

Grrrr!

An endless explosion of noise and the cries of monsters could be heard coming from inside the fortress.

At the same time, from outside the fortress, countless waves of monsters were flowing inwards like a flood.

“Did it become fun?”

Liu Sina, who spoke first by intercepting Shion’s lines, looked at Shion with eyes full of anticipation.

I guess I’m asking for permission to quickly jump into this chaos.

‘It would be a good idea to reduce the number in advance.’

The moment Shion smiled and nodded,

“Kyahaha!”

Paaang!

Her new model began to leap towards the fortress at an incredible speed.
