Chapter 138 – 138. Warlock
“Ha, that f*cking bastard.”
Spitting out a harsh curse, Findeneye clenched his teeth and took a breath.
The blade of the first ax was already completely cut off, so I threw it away and took out another ax from my belt.
Should I have brought it at least at the beginning of the year?
I had a pack of tobacco in my hand, but it wasn’t something I wanted to touch in this situation.
It is a luxury product whose taste and aroma can be enjoyed by savoring it a little more clearly.
Finally, suppressing the urge, Findeneye grits her teeth once again and takes a deep breath.
They were struggling more than expected, and the opponent’s offense was rough.
The difference between when there is a single being called Daejeon and when there is not is a significant difference.
However, Findenai realized that this was not simply due to the prowess of a great warrior.
Hehe!
A magical beast resembling a black-skinned leopard rushed from the forest. With her tusks outstretched, she was ready to crush Finden Ai’s head.
On the contrary, Finden Eye, who had already recognized the enemy before rushing in, brought down the ax that had been raised high.
Kwasik!
The monster’s skull is shattered and falls to the floor, blood gushing out.
The power of Daejeon Temple was clearly strong.
However, after being defeated by Deius, he did not have enough power to sweep the battlefield alone.
Now it’s the other way around.
Instead of Horua lending his strength to the Great Warrior, the Great Warrior lent his body to Horua.
Under the orders of Horua, the owner of the Marias Forest, the demonic beasts protect the Marias and fight together.
Additionally, his flame also had a mysterious power that prevented it from burning the forest carelessly.
No one on this battlefield has ever experienced this, but Finden Eye is the only one who has ever fought a guardian deity.
The day I first met Deius Verdi while crossing the North Wedden Mountains.
In fact, it was difficult to describe it as a fight, but Findeneye, who had hit Deius, who was handling the souls, was knocked to the floor by the mountain army’s blow.
The power of a giant that can never be defeated. A noble appearance that exudes greatness.
I understand that the mountains of the North Weddon Mountains and Horua are of the same type, but if you ask me if they are that overwhelming, that is not the case.
‘It means that he is a god who came down to a human body.’
Findeneye slowly turns his body and looks at the clearing beyond the trees. The center of this battlefield.
A great warrior who wields a spear of flame and dominates the battlefield itself.
And Gloria, the knight commander, is the only one standing in direct conflict with him.
No matter how much you are Finden Eye, it is dangerous to get involved in the battle now.
Before considering skill, the equipment itself is lacking.
Gloria was wearing red full-body armor and wielding a greatsword that went well with the word “bossword.”
The great warrior Balkzar was practically bare, but he was protected by the power of the guardian spirit, far superior to any other weapon.
“Whoa.”
But that doesn’t mean that.
If we had stayed here, Findenai would not have fought for freedom under the oppression of the Clark Republic.
Kneeling was never in Findenai’s life. Death, you can only see it from beyond.
“Ghost man. “Is he there?”
At Findeneye’s call, a wind mixed with mana blows.
While Deius was in the mountain village, the dark spirit stayed by Findenai’s side and helped her whenever she was in danger.
“I’m going in there now, can you help me?”
I can’t see it.
But because we both wanted the same thing.
Findeneye checks the protective shield surrounding him. Because he was a warlock, his proficiency in magic to protect others was low, but it was still better than nothing.
Seeing that, Findenai took a deep breath and grabbed his axe, then took out the dagger he had hidden in his waistband with his other hand.
Sigh!
“Master.”
An ax that appears with a single pole spread out long. She took a deep breath and stepped out, holding her ax in each hand.
“Please come out a little late.”
You shouldn’t waste time.
Even if the war cannot be ended, Deius Verdi must at least come out after rescuing Iluania.
I hope that he, who is always calm and cool-headed, will not end up like other warlocks.
“I’ll finish it soon.”
Finden Eye and the Dark Spirit rushed toward the Great Temple through unexpected companionship.
* * *
“Run away, you fools!”
The great warrior Balkzar was now becoming a being that could not simply be called human.
Guardian spirits cannot harm humans carelessly. For those who protect nature, even humans are a part of nature.
However, Horua abandoned his position as a guardian deity.
Although he was losing his power in return for abandoning his responsibilities, the total amount of his power itself was so great that he was still at ease with human opponents.
The kingdom army had no choice but to retreat, leaving behind a roar that could not be attributed to Balkzar or Horua.
Demonic beasts pouring in from all directions at any moment, and warriors who use the forest to use hit-and-run strategies centered on Daejeonsa.
Unlike the time when you could simply push your way in, you are now struggling and even the thick armor of the knights of the royal guard becomes a hindrance in the forest.
The retreating kingdom army had no choice but to retreat again to reorganize its posture.
“I feel like I’m fighting not just the tribesmen, but the entire Marias Forest.”
Gloria, who had taken off the red armor of the Guard Knights due to the armor melting in the flames and the rising heat, was wearing nothing but bandages.

Lucia, who was treating her carefully, also sighed bitterly.
“It’s not just Balkzar’s problem anymore, is it?”
“Uh, did you say Horua? “I wonder if there is anyone in the Great Forest who can defeat that being.”
“… … “Because he gave up his title as guardian, the person actually said that he would naturally disappear as time passes.”
“When is that?”
Gloria asked Lucia bluntly, but of course Lucia could not answer.
Not even Deius Verdi would know when the total amount of that enormous power would run out.
“You can freely carry out fireworks in the forest, but the forest does not burn. Even the Archmage wouldn’t be able to pull off something like that.”
The biggest problem is Horua’s flame.
It spreads throughout the forest, creating the battlefield itself as desired, but causing no damage to the forest.
The flame that seems to burn forever disappears with a single gesture of the Great Warrior’s hand.
The fire was taking the enemy’s side.
It’s so absurd that I’m so angry.
Now that the words of human limitations are clearly revealed, Gloria purses her lips and turns her brain to find the next solution.
No matter what, it is an enemy that mercilessly massacres its own people.
I couldn’t just send him away alive like this.
Gloria, who was reminiscing about the battle with the Great Warrior, asked Lucia while forcing herself to swallow the bitter taste that was welling up on her tongue.
“So, who is that person?”
“that person?”
“The memorial service maid.”
“ah… … .”
For a moment, Lucia’s face darkens. Gloria also knew this reaction would come, but she still had to confirm.
The only person who helped Gloria when she started to lose strength.
A maid who persistently fought the great warrior until the end, using her unique free-spirited movements and the hand of the blood ancestor in her hand.
In the end, both axes melted and she suffered fatal injuries, but Gloria was able to save her when she was put back in.
“I finished treatment before you. “But you won’t be able to participate in the next battle.”
“… … “It’s natural, but it’s unfortunate.”
I had seen them fighting in the royal palace in the past, but it was not easy to find a warrior of that caliber.
In particular, the longer the battle continued, the faster her movements became, and the beast-like flashing sensation was enough to give even Gloria goosebumps.
at that time.
Sigh!
A man came in with the tent entrance open. A presence that cools the body heated by the heat of Horua just by its presence.
He was damp, probably from all the rain pouring outside, and the way his head hung down gave him a strangely ominous aura.
and.
“Kyaaaak!”
Knight Commander Gloria hurriedly covered herself and screamed.
The woman who had lived her entire life holding a sword and used it as the king’s largest sword knew about the relationship between men and women only through novels written by her friend Lucia.
He hurriedly covered his body, which was only covered with bandages, but the memorial priest’s eyes did not change at all from the first time.
Unwavering eyes.
Most men might have turned their gaze a little, but his gaze was focused precisely on the saint.
“The sendoff is over.”
A short but concise word.
With that alone, Lucia put her hands together, ignoring the fact that her friend’s half-naked face was visible.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“My assistant Owen had a hard time. She asks for the child to be healed. “Please be especially careful with her fingers.”
“All right.”
Owen played continuously except for a short break during the send-off for the dead that lasted several days.
Now, I was already exhausted and lying down in the tent to rest.
“But the battle is not over yet.”
Deius is surprised that the war, which he thought would end quickly because he weakened the power of the Great Warrior, has taken longer than expected.
Gloria, who hurriedly took a blanket and wrapped herself in a blanket, responded as if she were humiliated.
“It’s because of the guardian spirit Horuah. “It has run away to the Great Forest of Marias and we are having a hard time dealing with it.”
“Did you run away in the end?”
Deius nodded, saying he understood the general situation, and then asked another question.
“Where is Findeneye?”
“… … .”
“… … .”
A tent filled with momentary silence.
With that alone, Deius’s eyebrows narrowed and he uttered a sharp command of sorts.
“Guide me.”
* * *
“f*ck, you came out so f*cking early.”
Finden Eye looked up at me and greeted me with a hoarse voice. The tips of her white hair were burnt off, and her entire body was covered in bandages.
It looked like he had been burned, but Lucia’s divine power exerted its power and it seemed that no scars would remain.
However, he appears to have lost all his energy and has no strength to get up.
[It’s over.]
The sight of the dark spirit sitting silently next to him was also unusual. Horua could even take a hit on her soul, so her body looked in danger as it looked unformed and blurred.
“Master, I haven’t lost yet. If you go and fight, I will win.”
[that’s right. So you stay still.]
I looked at the two people silently and slowly opened my mouth.
“Why did we fight so hard?”
“… … .”
[…] … .]
The two people kept quiet, saying they wouldn’t talk. In response to the quite blatant silence, I asked again.
“Say it.”
Still, the silence that came.
When I glance at the saint who followed me, she also lowers her head and chooses silence.
I felt like something was stuck in my chest. The more I see Findeneye and Dark Spirit lying down and helpless, the more I feel like something inside my heart is going on a rampage, wanting to spill out.
Because this is my first time feeling this way.
Not knowing how to resolve it, I slowly raised my mana.
“Should I even hold on to the dead and ask questions?”
Chilly mana gradually dominates the inside of the injured tent. If I were to keep quiet like this, I would have just gone out and caught at least one dead person and asked him about it.
What I saw was.
A woman with burns on half of her body appeared through the edge of the tent.
She seemed to have run out of energy and was slowly fading away. Instead of walking confidently like she usually did, she was crawling towards me.
“Iluania?”
Why is her guardian spirit here?
And at the same time, three other startled women.
I feel my head getting hot.
It was the first time that my body was so swayed by emotions that I had thought were subtle until now.
“I won’t ask any more. “Say it.”
“Oh, okay! So, harvest your mana! “The other injured people are scared!”
It was Saint Lucia who decided that my condition was unusual and opened her mouth.
It was a very careful explanation, as if you were pounding on a stone bridge, but in the end, there was one key point.
The Great Warrior, who did not want me to go to battle, kidnapped Iluania.
“Master, just stay still for now. I took care of it… … !”
Findenai quickly got up from the hospital bed and grabbed my hand, but I shook it off.
“wait a minute! Just wait! “If you intervene, that person will be in danger!”
The saint was blocking my path, but I grabbed her shoulder and pushed her aside.
[Deius, keep your beliefs. Like Dante or me… … You can’t be like other warlocks.]
The dark spirit spoke to me in a tearful voice, but I ignored him and went out.
Shoot ahhh.
I looked up at the pouring rain and opened my mouth.
“Tell Gloria.”
The voice was so calm that even I was surprised.
“Until I come out, don’t bring your army near the forest.”
There was no hesitation in my steps toward the Marias Grand Forest visible in the distance.
Rather, I feel that my steps are getting faster little by little.
A strongly clenched fist.
I felt that the wave of emotion was fading as it touched the beliefs I held as a relic, not a warlock.
Because there are no regrets left.
“That forest now belongs to the dead.”
Alone, I headed into the great forest.
