Episode 1050
“Right now?”
Even the world’s greatest Karun opened his eyes wide in surprise at the news that the war had already begun.
“Are you saying you’re going to set off without any preparation?”
He let out a gasp of disbelief.
“Isn’t it too urgent?”
Serena, the Sword Master, let out a deep breath and raised her hand.
“As the Lord Commander said, we are not prepared to fight at sea.”
She shook her head, saying that although she had done a lot of training, she had never practiced swinging a sword underwater.
“I think so too.”
The swordsman Latain nodded as he listened to Serena’s words.
“If you move too hastily, you might make a mistake!”
He pursed his lips, saying that he needed time to fight in the sea.
“What preparations!”
Balder stamped his foot loudly as if to tell her to stop talking nonsense.
“Fighting on land or at sea is the same! It’s great because there’s no need to wait, so why are you all making a fuss?”
He and Jinmujeon shook their fists like pot lids, saying that they could move right away.
“You ignorant bastard! It’s completely different!”
Alice frowned and hit Balder on the back of the head.
“No matter how skilled you are, you’ll get lost the first time you fight in the water!”
She shook her head, saying that she wouldn’t be able to show her skills if she didn’t adapt to the water.
“Then what should we do…?”
Balder lowered his voice, rubbing the back of his head where he had been hit.
“That’s why I have to go! My kids and I are perfectly acclimated to the ocean!”
Aris thumped her chest with her palm, saying that she and the Cheongpung sailors would participate in the war.
“… … .”
Denier looked at Glenman with calm eyes, as if he had known that this war would break out.
“Fighting the White Blood Cult is good, but why are you telling me now?”
“That’s right. If I had heard that there was going to be a war with the White Blood Cult, I would have risked my life and trained.”
“The sea is like that too. If I had known in advance, I would have trained to fight in the water.”
“A month. No, if only I had trained to adapt to the sea a week ago… .”
The inspectors lined up in the training ground sighed as if they were disappointed that they had to deliver the important news so late.
“It is what I instructed.”
As Glenn came to the center of the stage, the noises coming from all over the training ground suddenly died down.
“There are spies within Sieghardt at present. If news spread that the location of the White Blood Cult headquarters had been found, they would have already fled somewhere else or prepared a trap to catch us in return.”
He lowered his chin heavily, saying that he had no choice but to deliver the news on the day of the war, as he might be counterattacked by the White Blood Cult.
“You don’t have to worry about fighting at sea.”
Raon straightened his back and stood next to Glenn.
“Once the magic prepared by the great wizards is activated, you will be able to attack the White Blood Cult headquarters on land.”
Chamber nodded, telling Larian to trust the magic he had been preparing for over two months.
“And the battle at sea will be handled by our Gwangpungjeon, so I want you to focus on the fight in front of you.”
Raon told me that he had been training hard to fight in the sea.
Gooooooo!
The Gwangpungjeon inspectors gave strength to their words by releasing a terrifying wave of energy that overwhelmed all the inspectors in the training ground.
“Ugh!”
“What kind of energy do these kids have…?”
“Wow, the typhoon was this bad?”
The inspectors swallowed dry saliva, as if they were surprised by the powerlessness of the Gwangpungjeon inspectors.
“Hmm!”
Glenn raised his lips, seemingly satisfied with the momentum of the battle with Raon.
“so….”
When Raon looked at Glenn and tried to continue speaking.
Woof woof woof!
The open portal in the sky shook violently, and Chambers, wearing a red witch’s hat, and Evelyn, wearing a purple robe, appeared.
“What! Why didn’t you come in even though I opened the door for you?”
Chambers frowned, wondering why it was so slow.
“Hey! Grandpa must have thought of everything! Just wait!”
Evelyn called Glenn “Grandfather” even in the center of Sieghard where numerous inspectors were gathered.
“Huh, Grandpa? Grandpa?”
“What does that mean?”
“S, no way… .”
The prosecutors who had been spurring the war against the White Blood Cult looked at Evelyn and Glenn with blank eyes.
“Ahh… .”
Raon couldn’t stand the embarrassment and raised his hand and hit his forehead.
-That madwoman is on a whole other level.
Las sighed as if he was tired.
-You are a madman that even that swordsman can’t keep up with.
The guy shook his head, saying that Evelyn’s madness should be left aside.

“Hey, quiet!”
Glenn also stuttered slightly, unable to hide his embarrassment.
“I will now announce the armed forces that will be dispatched to wage war against the White Blood Cult.”
As he raised his hand, the noisy training ground fell into silence, and tension appeared on everyone’s faces.
“The vanguard is, of course, the Gwangpungjeon who contributed the most to this work.”
“Whirlwind War. I obey your command!”
At Raon’s shout, all the Gwangpungjeon inspectors knelt down.
“Aris Sieghart. You too, join. Your men will be waiting outside the dimensional gate.”
Glenn’s gaze turned to Alice, standing on the far left.
“I’ll kill you quietly and come back!”
Alice clenched her long hands into fists as if expecting something.
“The 2nd Battle, the Heavy Tortoise, will be in charge of protecting the family, the 3rd Battle, the Black Tortoise, will wait here, and the 4th Battle, the Dark Tortoise, will go out with the Gwangpungdae.”
Glenn seemed to have made up his mind beforehand and gave instructions to Karun, Denier, and Balder one after the other.
“…I obey your orders.”
Karun bit his lip and accepted the order, knowing that he also needed someone to protect his family.
“Hahahahaha! You have chosen well! I will tear out the heads of the demons with these hands!”
Balder clapped his fists in front of his chest as if telling her to wait with ease.
“I follow your orders, my lord!”
Denier bowed calmly, as if he would simply follow without hesitation.
“hmm….”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he watched Denier’s indifferent reaction.
‘You’re not saying anything even in this situation?’
Unlike Karun, who was given the task of protecting the family, Denier was given the task of standing by and not being able to leave this training ground even for a single moment.
It was disconcerting that Sima Yi’s subordinate was in the worst possible situation, but he followed orders calmly without any objections.
‘Is that really not the case?’
Seeing that, it occurred to me that I had been doubting Denier for nothing.
‘No, let’s not let our suspicions go. We don’t know when or what will happen.’
Raon placed his hand on the sword of the Heavenly Sword to regain his composure. His heart felt light as he felt the most familiar sensation at his fingertips.
“The Heavenly Swords will wait here, the Public Swords and the General Swords will support the Gwangpungjeon from behind, and the Strings and Middle Bands will…”
Glenn inspected the troops lined up on the training ground one by one and assigned each one a task.
“… Finally, I too will wait here.”
He lowered his gaze, saying that he would remain in Sieghardt.
The inspectors nodded, knowing why Glenn had no choice but to remain in the family.
“Then please.”
Glenn stepped back and nods his chin at Chambers.
“Grandpa. There’s no need to say that!”
As Chambers smiled and raised his hand, a dimensional gate descended in front of the prosecutors who had decided to go on an expedition.
“Just think of it as walking through your own front door and take it easy.”
She nodded, saying that she would reach her destination the moment she crossed the dimensional gate.
“We are here….”
Glenn lifted his sinewy chin as he looked at the inspectors standing before the portal.
“I’ll be waiting.”
The words that he would wait, not telling her not to give up or to fight and win, were engraved more deeply in his heart than any encouragement or advice.
“yes!”
“I will definitely come back!”
“Please wait!”
All the inspectors looked at Glenn with moved eyes, wondering if he was the only one who felt this way.
“Let’s go!”
With Raon’s rough shout, the Sieghardt inspectors entered the blue dimensional gate with lighter steps.
“I’ll be back soon.”
Raon bowed his head to the smiling Glenn and entered the dimensional gate for the last time.
Wooooow!
Chamber had improved his movement magic again, and as soon as he entered the blue dimension and blinked, a new landscape unfolded before him.
Paaaaah!
He could hear the sound of blue waves crashing. A familiar beach. It was the shore where he had dived every night to find the headquarters of the White Blood Cult.
I arrived at my destination before I could even take a proper breath.
“Ugh… .”
“Hey, this quickly?”
“Is this a different magic from the dimensional gate? How surprising….”
The inspectors also seemed to feel the same way, looking around and gasping for air.
“Prepare for battle.”
Raon walked towards the beach after ordering the inspectors to prepare to fight.
Woof woof woof!
There were hundreds of wizards on the sandy beach, each carefully drawing three different magic circles.
“Wow, you’re here…?”
Larian, who was directly examining the magic circle in the center, waved his trembling hand at him. Judging from the dead look in his eyes, he seemed to be in the state of a corner magician.
“Is it okay to use magic here?”
Raon frowned as he looked at the rough waves crashing against the sea.
“Hey, here… .”
“Don’t worry. I’ve carefully installed barriers to hide your presence and mana.”
As Larian was about to speak, Evelyn walked up behind him and answered for him.
“Right?”
She smiled and hugged Larian from behind. It seemed like they had become close while studying magic together for two months.
“Huh? Oh my god!”
Larian nodded with a face that seemed like it was going to die. I think I saw something wrong. It seemed like Evelyn was the only one who thought they were close.
“It’s okay now, but if we cast magic, they’ll notice right away.”
Chambers licked his lips, saying that the White Blood Cultist and the Blood Demons were not fools.
“So you only get one chance. You absolutely cannot make a mistake.”
She let out a heavy breath, saying that she had to activate all three spells while the White Blood Cult Leader was off guard.
“The three of you here are each in charge of one magic.”
Raon nodded, seeing that the center of the three magic circles was empty.
“That’s right. You have to be a transcendent level to be able to cast magic over the head of the white blood cult leader hidden in the invisible sea.”
Evelyn couldn’t help but laugh, saying that she, Chambers, and Larian were in charge of the core of the magic circle.
“But where is King Recross?”
The people who will face the White Blood Cult Leader today are Mukgeomjon and Matopju.
Chambers had to leave to manage the movement magic after summoning the White Blood Cult, and was confused when Recross and Owen’s knights were nowhere to be seen.
“I’ll be a little late because I have something to prepare.”
Chambers waved his hand as if to say there was no need to worry.
“Now, finally, we need to confirm the location of the White Blood Cult headquarters. Can you do it?”
She looked at herself, needing one last confirmation before casting her magic.
“All right.”
Raon nodded and put his hand into the sea. As he spread a very faint mana, a seagull jumped up onto the surface.
“Kyaung!”
Even though it had only been a week, Haerang wagged his tail wildly and rubbed his head against his hand as if it had been a year since they had met.
“Is that child the spirit you saved?”
Chamber stroked Haerang’s back as if he thought she was cute.
“Hey, spirit! Sea spirits are really uncommon!”
Larian scanned Haerang’s entire body with his reddened eyes, as if his research psychology was in jeopardy.
“Is the white city we saw still there?”
“Meow!”
Haerang said yes and hit her head on his forehead. A cool breeze like going into the ocean came to mind, along with the scene of the Baekhyeolgyo headquarters sinking to the same spot they had seen a week ago.
“Yes. It’s at the coordinates I told you.”
Raon nodded, saying that the position of the White Blood Cult had not changed.
“Good. There’s nothing to be upset about.”
Chambers clapped his hands as if to begin.
“Get ready!”
The eyes of the magicians standing in the magic circle changed at her shout. The desperate momentum of the Sieghart inspectors’ determination to somehow succeed in their magic made them swallow dry saliva.
Wooooow!
The chamber opened a blue window to the sea, through which the distant sea was visible in real time.
It seemed like the sky above the sea where the headquarters of the Baekhyeolgyo cult was submerged.
“Evelyn!”
Chamber nodded at Evelyn, who was holding her breath while looking only at Raon.
“It’s your turn. Don’t make mistakes.”
“I know.”
Evelyn waved her hand as if to tell them not to worry and stood in the center of the first magic circle.
“I’m watching you closely.”
She winked one eye and clasped her hands together as if to tell me to look only at her.
Kugugugugugugugu!
Evelyn’s mana, which had been pouring out like a wildfire, seeped into a circular magic circle and created a grand purple wave.
“It worked!”
Listening to Evelyn’s words, I looked at the screen that Chamber had opened, and saw a jar as large as a city falling onto the blue sea.
“Larian!”
Chamber reached out to Larian as if to start right away.
“I knew it!”
Larian threw off the robe that covered his entire body and clasped his hands together to form a spell. Before he knew it, his personality had changed from that of a corner magician to that of a magician.
“Let’s go, you guys!”
With her angry shout, the magicians of the magic tower who had been forming the second magic circle closed their eyes and began to chant their magic.
Woof woof woof woof!
As Larian poured mana over the spell the wizards had made, a huge magic circle of six stars appeared next to the sea where the jar fell.
Its size was so grand that it could even encompass the entire city.
“Now all you have to do is wait.”
Chambers clasped his hands together after confirming that Evelyn and Larian’s magic had been successful.
“May the octopus get caught in the trap.”
She bit her lip deeply and smiled coldly.
***
“Mana? No, is it magic?”
The ten apostles raised their heads as they felt a huge wave of mana rising from above the altar.
“Who the hell…?”
He trembled, unable to understand the sudden situation.
“It’s not magic coming our way. There’s something huge falling to the right.”
The twelve apostles frowned with their eyes downcast.
“No, that’s not all. There’s some unknown magic coming down from above our heads too.”
He twisted his lips as if he was being attacked.
“You were right.”
The white blood cult leader lowered his bear statue and blew out smoke.
“It looks like the location of this place has been discovered, just as you thought.”
She looked back at the Ten Apostles, muttering that she believed them.
“Huh… .”
The Twelve Apostles lowered their eyebrows as if they were not pleased and looked at the Ten Apostles and the White Blood Cult Leader.
“I’m sorry. I should have checked more carefully…”
The ten apostles bowed their heads as if they were ashamed of the praise they received.
“I will prepare as quickly as possible.”
“It’s okay. I’ve already prepared.”
The White Blood Cult Leader smiled faintly as he watched the magic circle getting closer and closer.
“The mana resistance of the fog spread outside the main altar has been strengthened, and the main altar’s own defensive barrier is also properly maintained. Even if 9th-class magic falls in succession, there won’t be any problems. And…”
She turned the bear over and shook out the ashes.
“The Kraken supporting us is immune to attack magic or auras. You don’t need to worry about anything.”
The moment the White Blood Cult Leader sensed the external mana, he said that he had strengthened all his defensive spells and put the bear in his mouth again.
“But there’s no need to stay in the place where your location has been discovered. Tell the 1st Apostle to move the Kraken and return to the deep sea.”
She laughed at the thought that everything the Emperor had prepared would be in vain.
“All right.”
When the 10th and 12th apostles nodded and were about to go to the 1st apostle,
Kuuuuung!
The sound of something huge falling next to the White Blood Cult headquarters was heard, and the entire sea shook.
“jar…?”
The White Blood Cult Leader glared at the jar, which was about the same size as the main cult.
‘Why the jar?’
I thought it was a piece of equipment that could make a physical attack, but I didn’t think it was just a large jar that was dropped, so I let out a gasp.
‘for a moment….’
The White Blood Cult Leader raised his gaze urgently and examined the magic circle slowly descending.
‘That’s not an attack magic.’
If it had been an attack spell, it should have already been blocked by the fog and erased, but the magic circle smoothly passed through the fog as if it was harmless, and wrapped itself around the main group and the kraken below it.
“What is this….”
The White Blood Cult Leader swallowed dry saliva as he looked at the tightly woven magic spell that seemed to have been knitted. He didn’t know what kind of magic it was, but a strange sense of unease ran down his spine.
“Move the Kraken! Now!”
Putting everything else aside, he moved the kraken and shouted at it to retreat.
“Yes! To the first apostle right now….”
“No! I’ll do it myself!”
It was when the White Blood Cult Leader was about to run to the control room where the First Apostle was staying.
Kuwaaaaaah!
Even though the order hadn’t arrived yet, the Kraken rose of its own accord and began moving towards the jar that had fallen on the right.
“What! Who gave orders to the Kraken just now!”
The white blood cult leader ground his teeth and stamped his feet, but of course, no one knew.
Kugugugugugugugu!
The Kraken didn’t care whether the White Blood Cult headquarters tilted or collapsed, and began to push its long, massive legs into the jar, twisting its pupils.
“jar…?”
“Why in a jar all of a sudden!”
The 10th and 12th apostles were also shocked and their jaws dropped at the Kraken’s sudden actions.
“Eww!”
“Hey, the buildings are collapsing!”
“Save me!”
Lower-level demons were crushed to death by being crushed under buildings or crushed to death by a violent earthquake.
“Church, Church Master!”
The first apostle leapt out of the cockpit, breathing heavily.
“The Kraken is out of control! Even after injecting it with the leader’s blood, it moves on its own!”
He trembled as the Kraken refused to listen.
“under….”
The White Blood Cult Leader lowered his wavering eyes and looked at the magic circle surrounding the main group and the Kraken.
‘Could it be a magic that strengthens instincts?’
Octopuses, being cephalopods, have an instinct to want to enclose their bodies in round objects.
The Kraken that supports the main body is an ancient monster with instincts several times stronger than modern Krakens. Thanks to this, it was able to use its camouflage comfortably, but it never dreamed that it would be used in this way.
“Immediately remove the spells placed around the main unit and open the dimensional gate!”
Because I had just strengthened the fog defenses to protect the main unit from magic, I couldn’t open the dimensional gate right away.
Kookookookookook!
As the White Blood Cult Leader was giving instructions to the Apostles, the Kraken had already placed all eight of its legs into the jar.
“I will kill the Kraken myself!”
As she ground her teeth and tried to get out of the sea, countless spells appeared above the jar containing the Kraken, emitting a blue light.
“shit!”
The White Blood Cultist bit his lip to draw blood as he looked at the jar of blue mana unique to the Chamber flickering.
“I got hit… .”
***
Kuwaaaaaah!
A magnificent blue light flashed and a huge jar and a white city on top of it fell onto the beach. The heavens and the earth shook as it crashed down under the tremendous weight.
“connection!”
At Larian’s shout, the magicians operating the first and second magic circles recited new spells and touched the ground.
Chiaaaah!
A variety of chains shot out from the small magic circle drawn by the wizards and wrapped around the White Blood Cult headquarters.
Kyaaaaaaaah!
The jar containing the Kraken broke and the White Blood Cult’s main body began to be dragged to the beach by hundreds of iron chains.
“combination!”
As Evelyn made a spell with her four fingers, a purple glow fell and the chains the wizards had summoned formed five bridges connecting the beach and the White Blood Cult headquarters.
Taaaaaah!
Evelyn snapped her fingers and looked back at Raon. Her red lips curled up as if their mission was over.
“White Blood Cult Summoning Complete!”
