Episode 193
Luca Hughes.
He was a knight commander of the Royal Knights of the Kingdom of Mariott.
His original position was vice-captain, but he naturally became captain when the previous captain, Cardinal Balda, died.
“Royal Knights. What are you doing? Sir Hughes, kill that traitor.”
Abelson Marriott says:
“What are you talking about! The traitor is Abelson Marriott over there!”
Cardinal Vincenzo also shouted.
Just a little while ago, the same situation that Labrun Marriott experienced.
“Captain. What should I do…?” “Captain… I have to give orders…”
All of the Royal Knights looked at Luca Hughes.
“Phew…”
Luca Hughes let out a deep sigh.
Actually, it didn’t make sense from the beginning.
The death of the Mariott royal family and their knight commander, Cardinal Balda.
There were too many strange things to simply say that it was done by the Demons.
And then there’s Cardinal Vincenzo.
His behavior, as if he were standing above the king, could not be viewed in a positive light, no matter how one tried to look at it.
‘I am loyal to the Royal Family of Mariott.’
The only royal person here is Abelson Marriott.
However, it was also she who killed the king in front of his eyes.
My head started to spin in the complex situation.
“Luka Hughes! Can’t you hear me? I’m telling you to kill that traitor Abelson over there!”
Vincenzo couldn’t stand it anymore and pressed her again.
“Cardinal Vincenzo. You are a priest, not a member of the royal family. You have no authority to give me orders.” “You fool! Who stands above the royal family you serve? It is I, Vincenzo!”
Luca Hughes nodded at the shout.
“It’s decided.”
At his words, which seemed to have settled the matter, the knights raised their swords with stern faces.
“Cardinal Vincenzo. Remember.”
A wild magic surged through Luca Hughes’ body.
“No one in the world can stand above the royal family.”
“What…?”
He kicks the ground and raises his sword.
“Royal Knights! Cut off the head of that ugly old man and establish royal authority!”
It was the moment when the second game began.
***
Meanwhile, Sarah Dunphy was out of the city, away from the capital, Scolbourne.
As the fighting intensified, its aftereffects spread to the city below.
Especially since she was a magic user, it couldn’t be helped.
“You guys really had no feelings.”
The warriors didn’t even blink an eye at the screams of the people.
As if nothing existed below.
They cast magic indiscriminately.
“It seems like some kind of brainwashing magic, but I’m becoming more and more curious.”
Sarah Dunphy raised both hands.
A huge magical energy begins to gather in front of her.
“What a funny world.”
The gathered magic soon transformed into hundreds of black spears.
8th class magic transformation
Spear of Slaughter
A spear that filled the air was fired towards the 200 warriors.
The warriors raised their swords again and prepared a large-scale chain of magic.
Woohoo-!
A translucent wall made of 200 blocks.
It was a huge defensive barrier created by each warrior pouring their magical power into it.
Windows began to appear above it.
Quagwaquagwaqua!
The window could not penetrate the wall.
I just keep getting stuck in the wall.
In the end, the wall could not be broken down.
But Sarah Dunphy’s face was filled with composure.
“Divine power, magical power, and magic. These three powers are in a mutually beneficial relationship. It’s quite interesting to think that they have the same roots.”
She raised her hand again.
8th class magic transformation
Spear of Slaughter
It was the same magic, but this time there were more spears than before.
“Did you know? Magi swallows magical power.”
Again, a black spear is shot out.

Kwaaaaang!
The wall, which had already blocked one attack, was weakened.
The second attack easily destroyed the wall.
Countless windows passed through the broken cracks in the wall.
The warriors quickly dodged, but it was impossible to avoid all the spears.
Kwak! Swish! Phew!
Several warriors fell with spears lodged in their chests.
“Wow, I thought you were a wizard. Your movements are quite good too. Were you a magician?”
I expected at least half of them to die.
In reality, only about ten warriors fell.
Sarah Dunphy had a feeling the fight might last longer than expected.
“Umm, that’s difficult…”
You can win on your own, but there’s no need to waste time and effort.
She pulled up her magic.
“Come, my warrior.” Wheeeeeeeeing!
Magic swirls before her.
The magic that had been hovering in the air soon began to take shape.
“I meet you, my lord.”
The one who appeared was Liam.
He was the greatest warrior of the Kingdom of Balington.
“Liam, I need your help.”
Sarah Dunphy is the ruling entity of the undead army.
That is, Liam was subordinate to her from the beginning.
However, she was not satisfied with that alone, so she reinterpreted the necromancy and made a completely new contract.
“Deal with the enemy.”
“I obey your orders.”
Perfect subordination.
Liam, reborn as Sarah Dunphy’s summon, was even stronger than before.
As time passed, he fully adapted to the magic, and his power also increased thanks to the magic that had become more powerful than before.
Kuung!
Liam kicks the ground and shoots out like light.
He reached the front of the warriors and bent his back sharply.
The body that had been stretched to its limit was released, as if pulling back the bowstring.
The sword is swung at a terrifying speed.
Phew!
A huge sword that is over ten meters long.
The warriors hastily deployed a defensive shield.
Kwaaang!
There was a loud noise, and the shield and sword energy disappeared together.
The attack was blocked in vain, but Liam paid no attention to it.
Anyway, what we just did was a kind of reconnaissance operation to gauge the enemy’s strength.
To begin with, such a large attack was much more powerful than Sarah Dunphy’s magic.
Still, the reason she called Liam.
‘Break the enemy’s formation.’
Liam’s forte was in the melee.
He jumped straight into the midst of the warriors.
At first glance, it may seem like a suicidal act, but his fighting skills are legendary.
The warriors, with a fighting force of only about 100,000, could not handle Liam, who had dug into their midst.
WHEEW! SCRACK-!
The severed arms, legs, and head of the warrior began to fly in all directions.
“Hmm, I should get out before it’s too late.”
Sarah Dunphy activates her magic.
Contrary to his near-perfect magical combos, he was not very effective in close combat.
If things continue like this, it’s only a matter of time before Liam takes care of everyone.
Before that, it was necessary to capture an enemy to use for research.
“Liam. Get rid of it intact, if possible.”
“yes!”
Although the voice was not very loud, Liam responded immediately.
His sword, which used to cut his enemies indiscriminately, changed to a method that cleanly cut through waists and necks.
“Then I will start capturing them.”
She stretched out both hands.
Magic spreads out like a curtain in the direction your fingertips are pointing.
Choaaaah!
It was a huge curtain, measuring hundreds of square meters in area.
Sarah Dunphy clasped her hands together in concentration.
8th class magic transformation
Swallowing Veil
A black curtain suddenly swallowed up the warrior.
The warriors, who were unable to use link magic due to Liam’s interference, were left helpless.
“Ugh…!”
There are over a hundred captured warriors.
They struggled as if resisting the magic.
Swallowing Veil Swallowing Veil
Two curtains fell upon them one after another.
“Oh, did I catch too much?”
Sarah Dunphy scratched her head.
A few would have been enough as a test subject, but they went overboard.
This was my first fight in good condition, so I put in a lot of effort without even realizing it.
“My lord, I have taken care of the rest.”
Liam, who had dealt with all the surviving warriors, approached.
“What will they do?”
“Hmm~”
She lightly swept his chin and spread her hands.
“I think five would be enough.”
“All right.”
“Put a clean stab in the heart.”
“yes.”
From then on, it was harvest time.
Liam stabbed the hearts of the struggling warriors in the tent one after another.
I didn’t forget to leave behind the five that looked the strongest among them.
“Great. Well then…”
Sarah Dunphy stretched out her arms, leaving the captured warriors behind.
“Shall we bring in a new warrior?” Woof woof…!
A powerful magic energy spreads out, incomparable to anything seen before.
A sufficient amount of magical energy to use 9th class magic.
It seeped into the dead warrior.
Grrrrrrrr-!
The dead warriors raise their bodies, uttering strange sounds.
They gathered in front of Sarah Dunphy in a comical manner, waving their arms.
“Is this the limit for now?”
There were about a hundred warriors gathered like that.
Most of them were low-level, low-ranking undead.
Sarah Dunphy clicked her tongue.
“I thought everyone would become Death Knights…”
It is true that expectations were high since he was of a high standard during his lifetime and used a huge amount of magic energy.
However, there were only ten usable Death Knights.
“Well, I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with this for now.”
Sarah Dunphy hands command of the Death Knight over to Liam.
“I’ll leave it to you. I don’t know if I can teach you, but please.” “I’ll do my best.”
If a Death Knight has intelligence and can learn, he can become a pretty useful warrior.
“Okay, so this side is more or less sorted out…”
Sarah Dunphy looked out into the distance at the royal palace in the capital.
“It looks like you’re almost done with it.”
The aftermath of the battle felt vivid even though the huge castle was so far away that it felt like a small toy.
However, since their power had been decreasing for a while, it seemed like their battle was also nearing its end.
“Shall we go and see something?”
Sarah Dunphy is flying.
After that, Liam and the Death Knights followed, carrying five warriors on their backs.
***
The whole area is filled with heavy breathing.
The royal knights stared ahead with weary eyes.
“Is that really a human being…” “He is not a cardinal, he is a monster.”
Cardinal Vincenzo.
He fought against Choi Hyun-seok, Abelson, and all the royal knights.
Despite overwhelming odds, he defeated twenty royal knights.
It also left a considerable scar on Choi Hyun-seok.
In return, Vincenzo himself was covered in blood, but his eyes were still shining brightly.
“Old man. It’s time to give up.”
Choi Hyun-seok said.
Cardinal Vincenzo has already reached his limit.
I desperately tried to appear calm, but my whole body was shaking.
He was already dying.
“You’ve already lost. You know there’s no point in fighting any longer.”
“Shut your mouth!”
Vincenzo ran, kicking the ground.
A heavy fist flying towards Choi Hyun-seok.
First, Choi Hyun-seok is not naive enough to take such an honest attack.
WHEEK!
He avoided the attack by slightly turning his head and swung his fist.
Unlike Vincenzo’s, Choi Hyun-seok’s fist lands right in the face.
Kwaaang!
Vincenzo fell to the floor with a loud noise.
“It’s really f*cking hard.”
It was clearly me who initiated the attack, but the pain from my fist made me feel like I got hit.
Vincenzo’s body was that strong.
“Well, is it definitely over?”
Vincenzo couldn’t wake up.
He lay sprawled on the floor, gasping for breath.
“Now, let’s enjoy the winner’s rights.”
“…”
“You’re not planning to evade your responsibility now, are you?”
The winner asks the loser a question.
That was the beginning of the fight.
“Ugh…”
Vincenzo smiled weakly.
“Okay. Tell me what you want. I swear to God, I’ll answer one question.”
At that moment, Choi Hyun-seok’s eyebrows furrowed.
“One thing? I don’t think there was any such restriction.” “More than that, and we won’t have enough time.”
Vincenzo’s body slowly began to disintegrate.
“Hurry up. Otherwise you won’t get anything.” “This medicine is for old people…!”
Vincenzo was really dying.
It seemed that until now, he had been holding on to his collapsing body with only divine power.
Although he was upset, Choi Hyun-seok had to admit that he couldn’t find out much.
‘What should I ask?’
There are many things I’m curious about.
The hidden power of the Holy Empire Gatren.
Detailed power of the target of the warrior training project.
Relationships with other kingdoms or the Demon King.
Plans after the temple.
The questions kept piling up.
However, Choi Hyun-seok pushed away all these questions.
“The Pope.”
Vincenzo’s eyes light up at the word Pope coming out of his mouth.
“How strong is the Pope?”
The reason Choi Hyun-seok asked this question was simple.
‘The Cardinal was hiding a power he had never expected. The Pope can do the same.’
This was the most important information of all.
If you don’t know the Pope’s background, you could end up making mistakes at a crucial moment.
‘If you’re an old man with nothing, that’s good. If you’re strong like this cardinal, you should prepare accordingly.’
Then Vincenzo opened his mouth.
“… He is God.”
“god?”
Choi Hyun-seok frowned.
“Explain it so I can understand. So, how strong is it?”
Vincenzo’s body is now less than half left.
It seemed as if it would soon completely turn to ash and scatter.
“God…”
At the last moment, Vincenzo, with only his head and heart left, recited.
“God is not defeated by anyone…”
With those words, Vincenzo’s body completely disappeared.
