Level up with swords (282)
It was right after that.
When the Monster Wave’s battle line got close enough to be clearly visible even from the area 13 walls, Leon left his position and began to sprint forward.
Holding a holy sword dyed in platinum light, a red cloak fluttering across hundreds of meters in an instant.
Like a comet, the tail of the sword light stretches out long,
Guogu?!
I plunged my sword into the head of the armored ogre, whose eyes widened at the sudden appearance of the enemy.
Jump! The ogre splits to the left and right, spouting blood.
Even if you wear high-quality armor, it is meaningless in front of Auror Blade. As soon as he was able to cut off one of the guys, Leon’s body turned clockwise and made a 360-degree horizontal cut.
Unfortunately, the thighs of those caught in that range were cut off without a sound, and they fell to the ground with the same momentum as they were running.
‘There are too many.’
Although he neutralized five or six armored ogres with two attacks, it was an easy task for Leon.
It was considered almost impossible for the Holy Iron Chain Knights and the Royal Guards, who were expert level and not master level, and could not use the <Auror Blade>, to make a quick fight against these guys.
One or two is fine.
Even if it’s just four or five, something will work out.
The problem started from the moment the number increased to double digits and became uncontrollable due to the superiority in numbers.
‘Me, Ella, and Karen have to take care of all the high-ranking monsters.’
Otherwise, the Holy Iron Chain Knights and the Royal Guards will not be able to endure.
Fortunately, the proportion of high-ranking monsters was focused on Cassim, which was a shame. If the average level of monsters had been higher, I had no choice but to prepare for great damage.
Leon thought about that and increased his strength.
The combined use of the <Sun Sword> and the <Seven Star Sword>, even if it cannot be used to the extent of the Five Swords, which cannot be used repeatedly for several seconds once used.
Sun Sword
Red lotus eclipse
The aura wrapped around the holy sword swelled even larger, forming a pillar of extremely hot fire that stretched nearly 20 meters.
With one swing, the formation is broken.
The guys who were running past him towards Area 13 were scared by an attack from behind and rolled on the ground. When the leader stopped, the speed of those following him also drastically decreased.
“Whew, it seems like it happened somehow.”
[Lance charging ultimately loses nearly half of its destructive power when the tip of the spear is broken. The same is true in war.]
Even an ordinary cavalry unit can disintegrate an army with its charging power, but what would happen if an ogre whose body weight and physical capabilities were dozens of times greater than that of a human charged in with all its might?
There was no way that even the walls built using Jugend’s method could be intact. If you try to climb up while holding on to a groove in the castle wall, a catastrophe will occur.
So Leon counterattacked first to break the spearhead, which was the tip of the spear.
[Leon!]
It was that moment.
Leon turned around a beat before El Cid called him and faced the malice streaming in from beyond the horizon.
Hrimturs’s cold ray.
Before I knew it, the guy with pale eyes again was aiming at exactly where he was standing. The timing seems to be aimed right after wielding <Prominence>.
Jiiiiiiing——!!!
The power was clearly increased compared to the beam fired earlier.
All the air in orbit freezes. As the moisture inside the clouds freezes due to the unseasonable cold, the water droplets that cannot overcome its weight break into small pieces like sleet and fall off.
It is a terrifying sight.
Leon realized that if he avoided the light, it would hit the gate of Area 13 directly.
“… “I looked down on you.”
It worked for me once, so I know it will work the second time.
Facing the overwhelming storm of cold, Leon stretched the sword he was holding diagonally.
This time it was his turn to take a hit.
Grand Chariot
Raise the sword while maintaining ‘prominence’.
From bottom to top.
The blade, which rose in the opposite direction, stretched out long and cut across the axis of the cold beam. 〈Auror Blade〉, which is compressed as thin as a sheet of paper, pierces through the cold air, but as expected, it cannot cut everything at once.
Leon also had no intention of ending it just once.
Heavenly gland transplant
Merak
As he slashes upward, he lowers the sword horizontally and slashes the cold ray as if cutting it into four pieces.
The sword light that erupted twice stopped the cold ray.
‘If the goal is to offset this, this will be sufficient.’
However, Leon encouraged himself and raised his sword.
Area 13’s defense system was paralyzed by its attack, so it was a real hit. If you don’t return it, I won’t be angry.
With the recoil of the <Polar Cross>, I take my numb body one step forward.
I took a step closer to the cold storm and stabbed the holy sword.
Yeon-sik’s five righteousnesses
Hocheon Triple Star
The third thrust, the soft five-armed suit completed with <Alkaid>, instantly shattered the cold ray.
No, scattering the beam wasn’t enough, so it shot out beyond the horizon with its remaining power. This was an unexpected situation for those who thought they would attack unilaterally from a distance.
The starlight of <Hocheon Samyeonseong> penetrates several kilometers.
Desmond and Tutanka saw that and stretched out their hands at the same time.
《Light fading in the abyss, meet the end.》
“““ᝠᝡᝣᝢᝤᝥᝦᝧ!”””
The 8th rank black magic, Dying Light, and an unidentified curse bar their teeth against the approaching light.

The blindingly strong light faded, and the dirt that stuck to the sword light like rotten mud stirred. When even 〈Hocheon Samyeonseong〉 seemed to lose its momentum and falter,
Phew!
Hrimturth stretched out his hand and caught the flickering light and crushed it.
Of course, the power remaining in the sword light tore the skin and penetrated deep into the muscles, but he did not even lift an eyebrow.
Even if dozens of liters of blood flow out, the recovery speed is faster.
Looking down at the wound that had healed in a matter of seconds, the monster that had recreated an old myth with the power of <Corruption> growled lowly.
Grumbling… …
Even though he had acquired greater intelligence than Desmond or Tutankha, he only growled like an animal.
As if communication is something only the weak need.
That arrogant attitude is proof of the strong.
《You’re strong. Although he may not be comparable to Saint King Rodrik, does he have a power worthy of that title?》
When Lich Desmond said that while looking straight at Leon, Tutanka’s three heads shook with different expressions.
“Sounds obvious.”
“This is the being that the master told us to be wary of.”
“Your bones are as empty as a bone.”
Desmond felt his blood pressure rising again, which had disappeared hundreds of years ago, but he could barely maintain his composure.
He was momentarily taken aback by the unexpected counterattack, but it went according to his plan. By the time he saw them from Hrimturus’ attack, the number of monsters that had fallen behind Leon’s back was already in the thousands.
If they continued to force a war of attrition like this, it would inevitably become increasingly advantageous for them.
Meanwhile, Desmond secretly looked to the side out of the corner of his eye.
Gurururururu…
The biggest variable was Hrimturs, who was only glaring at Leon without expressing any intention. Although I am following his suggestions, our forces can get out of my control at any time.
It was even more difficult because it could not be pressed with violence.
“Well, it’s normal for both of us.”
“““Khehehe…” .”””
Even though they were shoulder to shoulder, there was only one who could take the throne that Vritra had promised.
If necessary, you must take that position even by eliminating your competitors.
Since we didn’t know that, there was no reason to become friends with each other.
Samajang continued to watch his side like that.
To uncover the enemy and hero they must defeat.
* * *
Behind Leon’s back, Ellahan shouted loudly from the center of the formation lined up horizontally as if guarding Area 13.
“coming!”
Taking advantage of the opportunity to respond to Hrimturus’ cold ray, the monsters that passed by Leon run with their eyes closed. I trample on those who fall, and knock down those who stand in my way.
Monster Wave, where even the concept of Pia is unclear.
The only direction was aimed at Area 13.
“Nowhere in the world can sin be hidden, and nowhere in the world will mercy be left! Only those who have walked the right path will be proud before him. “On the day when the sun and moon rise at the same time, those who look up to the sky will get down on their knees and pray earnestly!”
Ellahan spouted out words in keeping with their advancing speed, and declared sanctuary when the divine power was fully amplified.
“「The Goddess is watching us!」
At the same time, the sacred light spread out in all directions, covering a radius of hundreds of meters.
Land that has been temporarily designated as a sanctuary arouses resistance from monsters.
Those who were immersed in madness flinched without even realizing it, and the strengthening that had been layered several times with black magic and witchcraft faded. This was because black magic, although not as strong as foreign magic, was a force that went against natural law.
Wow!
An armored ogre was the first to reach Ellahan and swung the spear in its grasp.
The air, pulled by tremendous force, blows like a gust of wind.
Powerful enough to extinguish a torch using wind pressure.
Ellahan, who faced it from the front, swung his Seongcheolswae.
Wow!
As a result that was almost natural, the ogre, whose upper body was crushed along with its armor, bounced around helplessly.
The eyes of the dwarves who didn’t know much about Ellahan’s power bulged like beads, and some of the Holy Iron Knights, who had seen the vice-captain’s performance for the first time in a long time, laughed and raised their weapons.
How can they be lazy when the saint is setting an example!
“For the Goddess!”
“For humanity!”
The weapons were deeply colored with their own colors, and the Holy Knights holding Auror Weapons moved as if they were one body.
Those holding long-armed weapons stand in the back row, while those holding shields or swords stand in the front row and face the monsters first. If we can take the time even for a moment, we will cut out their vital points from the back line.
It was a skill worthy of a knight of Seongcheolsae who was skilled in group combat.
and.
Kugugugugugugung… !
The feet of the monsters that were trying to attack the Jugend Guards caved in.
When a pit tens of meters deep suddenly appeared, the people who fell down and had no time to do anything were all tangled up in a mess.
One of the dwarves’ innate abilities is earth elemental magic.
Lands like the Kingdom of Jugend, which have been inhabited by dwarves for hundreds of years, are at their peak of efficiency. At the level of the Royal Guards, it was possible to move a mountain within a year from the time dozens of people gathered.
“Dirty monsters! Bury it all and use it as fertilizer!”
“Ogres can crawl out! Harden it with lime!”
“Hammer Team, start by destroying the bones of the guy who sticks out his head!”
There were not many powerful flying monsters like Wyvern in Area 13, so their tactics were quite effective.
Medium-sized monsters such as trolls and ogres were caught up in their own weight and buried deep in the ground. Not to mention the monsters like goblins, gnolls, and orcs that were crushed by them.
Even if someone somehow manages to crawl out alive, the dwarves who were waiting for him will cut off his head.
“What, is it working well?”
Karen was also active in a place a little far away from them.
She tried the poison out of curiosity, and tilted her head at the effect that was better than expected.
It is a synthetic poison extracted from the Titan Mountains.
Karen was more confused than happy because it had been more difficult to meet someone she could communicate poison with. How long has it been since she last used poison properly, when she was an assassin?
Wow… Quieeeeek…
… Gurgling, gurgling…
Those who were bleeding black blood from their eyes, noses and mouths would soon die.
Even trolls with strong poison resistance stopped breathing after 5 minutes. Those with a smaller body size and lower lethality often died in seconds.
A mountain of corpses piles up.
Although he only swung a dagger, let alone a shadow, a few times, the deadly poison transmitted in group warfare was truly terrifying.
however.
“Death is not an escape, and rest is like a dream that cannot be found even after death. Resentment is like maggots that gather in a corpse, eating both the living and the dead and emitting a foul odor.》
With a spell coming from an unknown source, the corpses began to transform into undead.
Even though black magic has been greatly weakened by Ellahan’s declaration of sanctuary, the change cannot be prevented. Upward compatibility with 〈Animate Dead〉, the foundation and ultimate of the Necromancy faction.
The 8th rank archmage even distorts the laws of the world.
《If you don’t have enough flesh, lust for it. If you don’t have enough blood, suck out the brain fluid. If your soul is thirsty, take it. You are the ones who have lost something and are trying to get it back. They are hungry ghosts who long for life.》
A person who has been revived as a zombie mutates into a ghoul.
A person who is revived as a ghoul transforms into a wight.
Evil spirits that do not possess physical power transform into wraiths and banshees, becoming evil spirits that threaten the living.
Perhaps thanks to being strengthened by <Corruption>, the guys created by Desmond were not greatly weakened even within the Sanctuary. Even those buried by the dwarves tried to crawl out with their bare bones.
“This might be a little dangerous… !”
Geoff, the commander of the Holy Iron Chain Knights, frowned and ordered them to take a few steps back.
Even though he is angry at the black magic that took place before his eyes, he realizes how unfavorable the situation is. Once defeated, the enemy came back to life, and there were still a mountain of monsters remaining.
If Area 13’s bombardment unit is not restored quickly, it may be impossible to maintain the front line.
It was then.
“We have confirmed the need for fire support.”
In the center of Area 13’s long castle wall, a blonde-haired girl muttered in a dry voice.
It was Rodelin.
A masterpiece of a lifetime created by Albion, the last dragon on earth.
A golem of a level rarely found even in ancient times, designed by Jugend’s Sentai Grandmeister and completed with dragon magic.
“We will deploy all external combat armor according to Master Leon’s instructions, ‘autonomous combat.’”
Rodelin’s body, which calmly announced its actions, was instantly enveloped in a dazzling swirl of light.
Was it only a few seconds?
Hundreds of parts of the golden golem summoned from subspace intertwine to form a gigantic body. The dwarves who were watching the change opened their mouths wide and realized that a level of technology had been put into it that even they could not imitate.
Some people were reminded of Sentai Grandmeister by its shape, but there was no time to confirm that guess.
《Switch to annihilation mode, fire support begins.》
Twelve artillery pieces and 36 remote weapons emerged from Rodelin’s massive body almost simultaneously.
Each shot is the highest attack magic of the 5th rank.
Even a master level output is difficult to handle from the front.
If all output is mobilized, it will have destructive power that can compete on equal footing with the artillery unit in Area 13.
《Full fire!》
The gun loaded with “Fire Burst” spewed out fire.
