“Leo! “What on earth is that!”
Runia and Eiran hurriedly ran towards Leo.
“Skeleton King.”
At those words, Runia and Eiran took a deep breath.
Skeleton King.
One of the strongest undead that a necromancer can handle.
“Well, running away… … !”
Leo shook his head as he looked at Eiran speaking with a white face.
“no. “You’d better not do that.”
“Like Eiran said, it’s right to back off now! “This is not the time to be rude!”
Even though Lumern and Seilun were at the highest level of first-year level, they were not enough to deal with the Skeleton King.
Runia and Eiran’s opinions were extremely valid.
“It’s actually more dangerous if you run away hastily.”
Leo looked towards Kargor and Lauta.
“Because they won’t be willing to watch us retreat.”
Runia gritted her teeth and Eiran looked frightened.
It was certainly a dangerous choice to run away with the Skeleton King, a top-class undead, at one’s back.
“Then what should we do?”
“How can I do it?”
Leo stepped forward.
“We have to take it down.”
Runia’s eyes widened as she saw Leo speaking as if it were obvious.
“It’s impossible!”
“It might not be possible under normal circumstances, but.”
Leo curled the corners of his mouth as he looked at the Skeleton King.
“That Skeleton King was not summoned in the normal way.”
“what?”
“Through his death, Lauta made a contract with Hell Kaiser and gained power. “It seems that the combination of that power and the power of the curse of the dead that is currently unfolding here somehow summoned the Skeleton King.”
Leo grabbed the sword.
“I just barely met the summoning conditions. “That Skeleton King cannot be summoned for a long time.”
The most basic condition for summoning.
It was the spiritual power that maintained the summoned target.
As the necromancer’s necromancy is also the domain of summoning, it was natural that the summoning would be canceled when the spiritual power to maintain was low.
“Then all we have to do is hold on until the magic power that sustains the Skeleton King’s summoning runs out!”
“But there is not only the Skeleton King over there, but also Lauta and the Death Knight, so can we really hold out?”
“I have to try it. Runia. You take charge of Lauta. Eiran faces the Death Knight.”
“yes?”
“Are you planning on taking on the Skeleton King by yourself?”
Leo nodded, looking at the two surprised girls.
“Yes, I think so.”
Runia shouted as she saw Leo speaking in a light tone.
“Reckless!”
“It may be reckless, but that’s the only way now. trust me. “If that Skeleton King is a top-level undead.”
Leo took something out of his arms.
Bleep?
“Because I have the strongest illusion.”
Runia gritted her teeth at those words.
‘For now, this is the only way… … .’
Runia took a deep breath.
“you! “If you die, I won’t leave you alone.”
“Phew.”
“what? Why are you laughing?”
“No, I’ve heard the same thing before.”
Leo, who shook Runia’s embarrassed hair, grinned.
“don’t worry. “There’s no way I’d be killed by a skeleton like that.”
***
“Hahaha! strength! “I’m full of energy!”
Lauta shouted, unable to control his rushing power.
“Skeleton King! Destroy the barrier in front of you right now!”
Ooooooooooooooo!
With Lauta’s command, the Skeleton King placed his huge hand on the floor.
Kwahahaha-!
A huge worn-out sword appeared with a gray light.
Gooooooo-!
The Skeleton King raised his hand to swing a sword imbued with a creepy black aura.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaa!
That alone created a strong gust of wind, scattering the surrounding snow in all directions.

“This is awesome!”
Lauta’s eyes were filled with joy, and he saw Leo.
“bloke! “How dare you kill me!”
Lauta, with sparks in his eyes, chanted a spell.
Grumble-! Kwakagak-!
An arrow of black flame flew towards Leo’s back.
Kwakagak! Pow-!
However, a wall of red flame was created and blocked the attack.
Lauta’s face distorted.
“Your opponent is me.”
Runia stood in front of Lauta.
“dare! “Are you blocking me, your senior?”
“senior? Do not be ridiculous. “You are nothing but a traitor who tarnished Seirun’s name!”
Lauta’s expression suddenly changed as he looked at Runia with contempt in her eyes.
“I guess I should learn to respect my seniors.”
Lauta summoned his staff.
And then he hit the floor with the cane.
thud-! Gooooo!
A magic circle was created on the floor.
At the same time, the undead began to appear.
Runia snorted at that and activated her spiritual power.
Grumbling!
Numerous phantom beasts of flame appeared.
The battle between summoners and necromancers has begun in earnest.
“Hehe, there’s no enemy easier to deal with than when you’re scared.”
Kargor adjusted his sword and let out a creepy laugh.
Seeing Kargor like that, Eiran took a step back.
“Ugh.”
The reason Eiran was able to gain courage after entering the forest was because Leo and Runia were behind him.
But now Eiran had to fight against the Death Knight alone.
‘Can I do it?’
Eiran’s hands were shaking.
Eiran, who hated fighting, wanted to run away.
Eiran, who was taking a step back, saw Leo and Runia.
‘If I don’t do it, both Leo and Runia will be in danger.’
Eiran’s eyes, which had been shaking with anxiety, gradually regained their stability.
When I saw Leo fighting against the Skeleton King while smiling, I thought he was like a hero in a story.
Runia, who supported Leo in her own way, looked more dazzling than ever.
‘I never thought of wanting to be a hero. but… … but… … .’
A girl who loves heroic stories entered Seilun with the hope of watching those heroic stories from the sidelines.
‘At least I can’t hold these two people back!’
Gooooo-!
There was speculation in Eiran’s eyes.
‘This girl… … ‘The atmosphere has changed?’
Kargor’s face hardened as he saw Eiran stop trembling and take his stance.
Leo, who was charging towards the Skeleton King, laughed.
‘Having big dreams doesn’t mean you can become a hero.’
Aura flames enveloped Leo’s body.
‘Sometimes small dreams come together and become great heroes. The personalities are different, but in that respect, you resemble Berkia more than anyone else, Eiran.’
Eiran’s ancestor Berkia was like that.
Leo clenched his fists, remembering the little elf girl who admired the footsteps of great heroes.
“Fiora!”
A powerful flame aura enveloped Fiora’s body.
Woe!
Gwaoooooooooooooooooooooo!
The Skeleton King’s roar rang out for a long time.
A black energy hovered over Leo’s body when he heard the sound.
“It’s the cry of the dead.”
A type of peer-type curse used by the undead.
A curse that reduces the defense of the living who hear the shout, and increases the attack power of the dead!
In the current situation, it was the worst curse.
But Leo grinned.
“Fiora. shout it!”
Piyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Fiora’s clear and cute cry echoed throughout the forest.
The moment they heard that sound, a red aura filled Leo, Runia, and Eiran’s bodies.
The power of the Phoenix, the cry of flame that never goes out.
It was a blessing that had the opposite effect to the shout of the dead used by the undead.
“How long are you going to whine?”
Leo burst out laughing and charged towards the Skeleton King’s sword, which was swinging towards the barrier opened by the previous Fairy King.
Grumbling!
Fiora, who had transformed from a cute little baby bird into a beautiful phoenix, sat down lightly on Leo’s sword.
‘Summoning – Appearance.’
Grumbling!
Fiora turned into a flame and dwelt on Leo’s sword.
It was a technique to bring out the power of a phantom beast or spirit by inhabiting the body or weapon.
Grumble-!
Wings of flame were created at the tip of Leo’s sword, and then a blade of flame was created.
The sword of fiercely burning flame instantly grew as large as the Skeleton King’s sword.
Everyone looked at Leo in surprise.
Leo’s red eyes flashed and he swung towards the Skeleton King’s sword.
Quaaaaa! Quang!
Quaaaaa!
Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
With a huge explosion, the Skeleton King’s arms soared into the sky.
The Skeleton King, who was reeling from the impact, fell down.
Coo coo coo coo! Kwaang-!
Several trees were knocked down by the large object.
Leo used magic to levitate himself in the air.
Woe!
Fiora escaped from the sword and gracefully flapped her wings and sat on Leo’s head.
[and! Leo! Can you even use the incarnation?]
Kiran, who was watching the situation, stuck out his tongue.
Appearance was a skill that was difficult for even experienced summoners to use.
[You’re still a kid, but you’re pretty cool, right?]
Fiora jumped at Kiran’s words! He cried and lifted his chin calmly.
[Heh. That’s enough for my subordinates. From now on, I will make you my subordinate #1… … evil! You chick! I’m not eating!]
Kiran, whose head was swallowed by Fiora’s beak, struggled.
“Stop playing around.”
Fiora blinked at Leo’s words! And spit out Kiran.
thud-! Coo coo coo coo!
The Skeleton King stood up.
Although it was said to have been thrown away by Leo, it did not cause much damage.
thud! thud!
The Skeleton King stood up and his eyes fell on Leo.
Whoop-! Quaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The Skeleton King’s sword swung at incredible speed.
Quagga-ga-ga-ga-gang-!
The place where Leo was standing was instantly devastated.
The Skeleton King’s eyes turned to the tip of the sword.
Leo, whose eyes met the dark red eyes of the Skeleton King, pointed at the Skeleton King with the tip of his finger.
“Kiran.”
[huh? oh?]
Woe!
A soft silver light flowed from Kiran’s body.
“Assistance.”
[okay!]
A rune appeared on Leo’s fingertips.
It was none other than fairy magic.
“Luminance Ray!”
Flash!
A magic circle of stars was created at Leo’s fingertips, and a bullet of intense light was shot out.
Kwaang-!
Gwaaaah!
The Skeleton King, whose right eye was hit directly, let out a scream.
Woe!
As the Skeleton King frantically swung his sword, Leo quickly broke away from the sword.
‘It consumes a lot of magic power.’
Leo sighed.
The magic from a moment ago was a high-level spell that Leo cannot use right now.
However, the reason Leo was able to use it was because of the help of none other than Kiran.
Kiran’s potential was raised using spiritual power.
Fairies were also powerful practitioners of magic.
Originally, it was a magic operation that could not be implemented, but it was assisted by the power of Kiran.
‘If Kiran’s power had been intact, he could have used it without much trouble.’
It is true that magic has taken a toll, but Leo’s magic power has also been overloaded.
Crack-!
Leo landed in his seat.
Grrrr!
The destroyed Skeleton King’s eye glow has been restored.
‘The weight gap is too big.’
Leo wiped the cold sweat from his head.
The two attacks were also more attacks than were currently allowed for Leo.
‘But it’s just a matter of time.’
Leo’s goal is to stop the Skeleton King.
It was time for Leo, who lowered his posture, to prepare for the next attack.
Sigh-!
The Skeleton King raised his sword again.
‘No matter how powerful the undead are, it is impossible to bring out their true power unless they receive assistance from a proper necromancer.’
Undead are also like phantom beasts.
Just as Leo is unable to properly draw out Fiora’s power, the Skeleton King summoned by Lauta was also unable to properly draw out his power.
‘If we just take the time, we can stop it…’ … .’
Ugh-!
At that moment, the Skeleton King’s sword glowed dark red.
When Leo saw that, something occurred to his mind.
At the same time, Leo instinctively swung his sword to the side.
sudden-! Sigh-!
“… … !”
Leo took a breath as he felt the pressure next to him.
As if it had moved through space, the skeleton sword was suddenly next to Leo.
Leo instinctively blocked it before even realizing it and gritted his teeth.
Quagga-ga-ga-ga-gang-!
Leo’s body bounced off the spot.
