Episode 234
Saint Morial and her legendary crew left the Kingdom of Mariott in a hurry.
Sarah Dunphy is raiding the Sacred City of the Holy Empire.
Since the investigation team’s ostensible goal was Sarah Dunphy, it was a situation where they had no choice but to run away.
“Why is Sarah Dunphy attacking the Sacrium?” “It must be because of us. It must have been ordered by Abelson Marriott.” “I didn’t sense anything like that. Did they prepare it before we arrived?”
The three legends. Geling, Asmund, and Kinley took turns speaking.
“It doesn’t matter why Sarah Dunphy showed up. It happened. We do what we have to do.”
Saint Morial continued their speech.
“Considering the circumstances, it’s a good thing for us. If Sarah Dunphy had kept going out, it would have been burdensome for us to stay in the Marriott Palace for a long time. This way, we can kill two birds with one stone.”
Even if they had stayed in the Mariott Palace, it would have been difficult to find evidence of the undead.
In fact, Saint Morial didn’t even feel the aftereffects of the magic.
If Abelson had held out until the end, things would have been a hassle in many ways.
But with Sarah Dunphy running wild, the cause is naturally strengthened.
Now that Sarah Dunphy is taken care of, all is well and good to go back to the palace and question Abelson about ‘what do you have to do with the undead’.
“That’s the place.”
Saint Morial and her party arrived at the city in question, Sacrium, in less than 20 minutes.
From afar, I could feel the intense magic floating above the city.
“Based on the magic power alone, he’s at least a corps commander.” “This isn’t an ordinary corps commander. With this level of magic power, he’s on the level of the 1st Corps Commander Doritugs.” “It doesn’t matter. If we join forces, we can handle the Gourmet even if he comes.”
“Let’s dive right in.”
Just as they were about to move towards the source of magic.
A voice came from above my head.
“It’s later than I thought.”
The saints’ party raised their heads in a hurry.
“Is that Sarah Dunphy?” “How long has she been there?” “It would have been difficult if I hadn’t known she was undead. I can’t tell the difference at all.”
A woman with bronze skin and dazzling gold and jewels.
At first glance, it looked like a human, not an undead.
Next to her stood a warrior holding a huge greatsword, and he too had an ominous air.
“I’ve never heard of a warrior like that.”
The warrior also appears to have at least semi-legendary level power.
Kinley, one of the legends, crumpled his face.
“It’s going to be more annoying than I thought.”
There is no other meaning.
Kinley frowned, annoyed at the situation that was becoming more and more annoying as he said it.
Anyway, their skills are top-notch even among legends.
There’s nothing difficult about having a semi-legend involved.
It just becomes a little more annoying.
That was all.
Then Saint Morial stepped forward as a representative and asked.
“Are you Sarah Dunphy?”
“okay.”
“Why are you here? Weren’t you going to raid the city?” “We didn’t raid the city. We just pretended to.”
All Sarah Dunphy did here was scatter magic.
It may look scary, but it actually does no harm.
She just let me know she was here.
The purpose, of course, was to summon the group of saints who had come to capture him.
“Did you lure us here?”
“That’s correct.”
Sarah Dunphy raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
Saint Morial also responded with a bright smile.
“That’s interesting. Do you really think you can beat us?” “Well, you’re a bit more skilled than I expected. But I think you’ll be able to do it.”
“How arrogant.”
Sarah Dunphy shrugged.
“How long do you plan on fighting with your mouth?”
Sarah Dunphy’s magic spreads, and undead appear everywhere.
High-ranking undead, each one a powerful entity.
The number alone is in the hundreds.
Excluding Sarah Dunphy, the undead here alone could blow up a small country.
However, there is Saint Morial here.
The saint possessed immense power, so much so that she could be said to be the strongest among the undead.
“I don’t think you can show that much confidence with just these punks.”
A massive amount of divine power emanating from Saint Morial exploded in the sky.
Highest level divine magic
Baptism of Destruction
Soon, rain created by divine power covered the earth.
Gh …
A rain of divine power that can melt any undead in an instant.
The undead sent out by Sarah Dunphy were all high-level undead and were holding on, but it was only a matter of time.
If this continues, we won’t even last 10 minutes and they’ll all disappear.

“Wow, that’s definitely pretty good.”
Sarah Dunphy looked interested.
This was my first time seeing divine magic of this level, so I was naturally curious.
“It’s not a bad idea to simply use strong force. It’s more efficient than trying to twist things around.”
But now it’s a combat situation.
It was not a time to leisurely watch magic.
“Did you know? This type of magic has a fatal weakness.”
Sarah Dunphy raised her hand.
The magic that stretched out from her fingertips instantly covered the sky.
“It’s so simple that you can easily get swept away. Like this.”
Saint Morial looked up at the sky with a look of astonishment.
“how…!?”
Swaaaah-!
It’s still raining.
However, it was no longer rain filled with divine power.
It was pouring with rain, filled with Sarah Dunphy’s magic.
Grow up…!
The undead that had fallen, soaked in divine power, rose again.
Rather, it has become stronger than before.
Saint Morial could not understand how this was possible.
‘Magi is weak to divine power. What’s more, the opponent is the worst of all, the undead. So how did it swallow up divine power!?’
Even Sarah Dunphy transformed magic.
It’s not that the existing sacred magic was destroyed, but rather its attributes were converted into magic.
At that time, Saint Morial was bewildered by a feat she had never seen or heard of before.
The legendary trio has come forward.
“Moreal. Assist. We’ll handle it.”
“… all right.”
Saint Morial bit her lip and stepped back.
The legendary Kinley gave the order on behalf of the group.
“Asmund, you take care of the thugs. Geling, take care of the knights. I will deal with Sarah Dunphy myself.”
“i get it.”
Roles are simply distributed.
Just as a full-scale battle was about to begin.
“Well, I guess I’ll stop here for today.”
“what…?”
“Then let’s meet again next time.”
Black fog swirled as Sarah Dunphy waved her hand.
While the Saint Morial party was panicking and kicking away the magic.
“Run away!”
I saw Sarah Dunphy flying in the distance.
Kinley swung his mace, his face crumpled.
Kwaaang-!
All the magical energy swirling around in the shockwave is scattered.
Kinley quickly kicked the ground.
“Those bastards know how to make fun of people!”
Her face became even more distorted.
How dare you play with yourself.
I will catch you right now and crush every bone in your body.
“Just wait a minute!”
Until this time, no one knew.
Who would have thought that this chase, which started suddenly, would last for nearly two weeks?
***
We start chasing Sarah Dunphy, and it’s been a day since the first one.
The saints’ party thought.
The chase took longer than expected.
The enemy is quite good at running away.
Then two days passed.
After three days, the color drained from everyone’s faces.
“It’s the limit. I need to get some sleep.” “We’ll go back and get some sleep one by one. The rest of us need to keep chasing. We can’t afford to lose them now.”
The enemy must have been tired too.
Even if they are undead, their magic has its limits.
Surely this chase will end soon.
Time passed like that.
After a week, they too surrendered.
“Request assistance.”
“If you contact the home country, they will send troops.” “A simple army won’t do. We need to mobilize the Knights Templar as well.” “I will speak to the church and have them provide support by sending priests.”
They readily admitted that they alone could not catch Sarah Dunphy.
Rather than giving up here, it would be better to ask for support now and get a firm grasp.
“Once support comes, it’s over.” “We’ll block off all sides so they can’t run away anymore.”
A large force was mobilized from the Holy Empire Gatren and the Deusis Church.
I figured it was just a matter of time before we caught Sarah Dunphy.
Sarah Dunphy is still at large.
Saint Morial and the three legendary figures could not help but grow increasingly exhausted.
“I’m sick of this…”
“… I’ve lived for hundreds of years, but I’ve never been this tired.”
The fugitive simply ran away, but the pursuer had a lot to do.
I had to deploy a force field to prevent the use of teleportation magic.
It was necessary to spread a siege net in all directions to prevent movement by any means possible.
The hardest part about it all is that Sarah Dunphy is on the run, 24 hours a day, without sleeping.
As humans, they must need sleep, but Sarah Dunphy is so fast that if you leave the chase to someone else, you might miss them.
In the end, Saint Morial and the three legendary figures had no choice but to take turns sleeping while continuing the chase.
“How much time has passed?” “I think we’ve been chasing for about two weeks.” “It’s been 13 days. To be exact, we’ve been chasing for 12 days, 14 hours, and 16 minutes.”
“I see…”
Today marks the 13th day since the chase began with Sarah Dunphy.
Their eyes were bloodshot and their bodies were covered in bruises due to lack of proper care.
“No matter what happens, I will catch you…!”
The legendary Kinley clenched his fists with wide eyes.
Now it’s a matter of pride.
How much effort and time have you put in so far?
If I let this happen and let Sarah Dunphy go, I wouldn’t be able to show my face in the future.
“Just hold on a little longer. The encirclement is almost complete. Then even Sarah Dunphy, no matter how good she is, will not be able to escape any longer.”
Saint Morial said.
“He is a formidable enemy who could be the greatest obstacle to the future of the Empire. It’s fortunate that we know about him now.”
The events of the Mariott Kingdom have already been forgotten.
I don’t care what happens to the Kingdom of Mariott.
Now that we fully realize the danger Sarah Dunphy is in.
All their attention was focused on Sarah Dunphy.
It was then that the long-awaited news arrived.
“Sarah Dunphy is trapped!”
“at las!”
Finally, Sarah Dunphy was caught in the trap.
A powerful sacred barrier.
This time, even Sarah Dunphy won’t be able to escape easily.
***
Sarah Dunphy looked around.
A mighty divine power surrounded the area in a dome shape.
“Hmm, this barrier is a little different.”
During the chase, Sarah Dunphy was trapped in the barrier several times.
Every time, I easily broke the barrier and escaped, but this time, the situation was different.
This is a very solid barrier that has taken a long time and a lot of effort to build.
Even for Sarah Dunphy, it would take quite some time to break a barrier like this.
There is no way the fugitive will have that kind of time, so it means that he will have to fight his final battle here.
‘It’s too bad. I tried to hold out until Choi Hyun-seok returned.’
She clicked her tongue inwardly.
It’s a shame I won’t be able to see Choi Hyun-seok one last time, but what can I do?
The situation has already occurred.
She stretched widely as if trying to shake off her discomfort.
“Liam. Are you feeling okay?” “Yes. It’s times like this that I’m thankful I’m undead.”
A 13-day chase.
As long as we are human, no matter how legendary we are, we cannot help but get tired.
In contrast, Liam and Sarah Dunphy were fine, except for being mentally exhausted.
Because the undead have infinite stamina.
If I had enough magic, I could fight nonstop for a whole month.
Of course, staying sane was another matter.
Anyway, Liam was grateful that he was able to go into battle in relatively good condition.
“Liam. It’s not too late.”
Suddenly Sarah Dunphy put her hand on Liam’s shoulder with a serious expression.
“What do you mean?” “Even though the enemy’s encirclement is tight, I can definitely save you.”
I felt the enemies swarming.
At least ten thousand units.
They are not a bunch of random people, but they all have strong divine powers.
Still, Sarah Dunphy was confident she could send Liam away alive.
Liam shook his head and looked at Sarah Dunphy.
“My lord, I have been thinking about what you have said over the past week.”
“What did I say?”
“Yes. You asked me about the meaning of existence.”
“Ah, that’s right.”
Before this chase begins.
Sarah Dunphy asked Liam.
“What do you think is the meaning of existence?”
At that time, Liam couldn’t answer.
Because it was a topic I had never thought about.
He was on the run for nearly two weeks, constantly struggling to answer that question.
“I realized when I thought about it. I knew from the beginning what the meaning of my existence was.”
“What is that?”
Liam chuckled at Sarah Dunphy’s question.
“That is my lord.”
“…”
“A world without a lord has no meaning to me.”
Sarah Dunphy smiled awkwardly.
“You say such strange things. You have a long life ahead of you.” “I am serious, my lord.” “Understood, so stop.”
She looked around.
The enemy had already surrounded them on all sides and was aiming their swords and spears at them.
“It reminds me of the old days. Before we founded Balington. You and I. There was a time when we faced a great army together like this. Do you remember?”
“Of course.”
The decisive battle that established Sarah Dunphy’s name on the continent.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the Kingdom of Balington was established thanks to the victory in that battle.
Sarah Dunphy felt that the battle then and now were somehow similar.
“I am sure that I will become famous even in this era without expecting it.” “It is an infinite honor to be part of this historic moment.”
As soon as he finished speaking, magic began to fly in from all directions.
Colorful magic that fills the world.
Sarah Dunphy gave a small exclamation of admiration.
‘It’s beautiful.’
Why is that?
I find the magic that leads one to death beautiful.
“Then let’s go.”
“yes.”
Sarah Dunphy and Liam smiled and threw themselves into the magic.
