Episode 181
Defeat or Victory
『Ho?』
Mephisto, who was crossing his arms, wiggled one of his eyebrows.
His own little exclamation, ‘It’s pretty good.’
But it wasn’t directed at Elric.
It was a reaction to Judas.
‘It was shallow.’
This was Elric’s first thought after attempting ice fever.
Clearly, he put a lot of force into what he thought was a loophole, just as his mind’s eye had drawn.
However, the batting was not very effective.
Judas finally succeeded in pulling himself back in the nick of time.
I thought I was clearly blinded by madness.
Perhaps because they were demons, their animal senses were at an absurd level.
Of course, even so, the damage could not be completely avoided.
Kwaaaaang!
“Damn it!”
Judah cried out in terrible pain that shook his whole body.
From the left forearm to the rear wing ridge. It flew away in an instant.
As if a hungry animal had devoured it in an instant.
Because I knew that it was originally an attack aimed at my head. An eerie sense of danger, as if he might have died, passed along his spine.
The problem was that even if I wanted to fight back, I couldn’t.
A large amount of thin ice formed on the wound area and quickly penetrated the body.
As it consumed demonic energy, it disrupted circulation and made the body’s movements creaky. As the frostbite spread at a rapid pace, a lot of pure white breath came out every time I took a deep breath.
It was Bingdog.
“bloke!”
Demons are originally atypical creatures created based on the concept of ‘true name’.
Therefore, the body also has no fixed shape, so no matter what kind of injury it receives, it can recover or regenerate as long as it has enough magic.
That was completely impossible now.
It was because of Bingdog.
The ice poison that Elric just forced into his body is a product of the power of ‘Winter’.
There was no way that Judah, who was a mere inferiority and a half-turned member of the organization, could defeat the power of Otto Han, who once competed with the Great Demon Lords.
So, although Judas was very angry on the outside, he became impatient on the inside.
Instead of having a chance at winning against Elric, he was only getting pushed back.
The Seal of Madness wasn’t using much power.
‘Just this guy… ! Do something about this guy!’
If you just look at the prestige he clearly exudes, he is far superior.
So I was able to kill Elric somehow.
No, I had to kill him.
If I return to the organization having failed again this time, I will end up dead anyway.
After being swayed by Elric all this time and even losing General Dong… He felt like his life was at stake.
No matter how generous the god you serve is to your descendants, there will be no mercy twice!
Paaaat!
Judah spread his remaining wings wide and squeezed the demonic energy with all his might.
Crumbling-
I raised my claws and sharply thrust them into the air, and a storm of magical energy followed.
A large scar was left on the ground, and the space was dyed pitch black.
So so so so-
Because of this, the suppression of the Bing Poison infection was released, and the Bing Poison covered the entire body at an even faster rate.
Judas had no time to worry about such things right now.
No, rather, the only thought I had was that the more I did that, the faster I had to kill Elric and ‘eat’ him.
If it is the seal of digestion that you have. If you borrow the power of the seal, which can eat anything and steal the power contained within it, you will be able to somehow cure the ice poison by eating Elric.
and.
‘I will take your authority back!’
There was hope that he could take back the power of winter.
Kwakwakwakwa!
In that situation.
Elric took a half step back with his right foot and turned his toes slightly.
The intention is to correct one’s posture in order to respond in a new way.
This time, I was trying to mix in some of the techniques of Gangchejutsu.
Shall I help you?
At that time, a part of the shadow came up to Elric’s fingertips.
Hyul’s thought form asked in a subtly sweet voice.
I don’t have enough strength right now. yes?
Elric frowned.
I wanted to tell him to stop talking nonsense and just eat the seals of other demons nearby.
In fact, he knew it well.
The situation is not so easy to say such things now.

‘The attack a little while ago almost drained my magic power.’
It was good that he caused damage to Judah, but the problem was that he also suffered a lot of damage.
Just manifesting two powers in succession is a problem, but using ice heat means squeezing out what little magical power is left.
‘There is one minute left.’
Now the magic circuit was almost reaching its limit.
If things continued like this, even if they could somehow kill Judas, even escaping would not be easy.
‘no. If you think about it, there’s nothing left… I have to somehow catch him in the next attack.’
Seal of digestion.
Hyul’s thought form also noticed Elric’s situation and proposed a deal.
Let’s just take that. how is it? master. It might not be such a bad offer for you either.
I think the seal of Azazel or something tastes terrible. haha.
The reason why Hyul’s thought form required the Seal of Sohwa was very simple.
Because it was an ability that was perfectly suited to him.
If a person from an anglerfish can acquire and integrate with the concept of ‘digestion’, it would not be too much of a stretch for him to quickly recover his strength.
Elric thought it wouldn’t be bad for him either.
Right now, the seal of the evil star is connected to the ghost.
If the seal of the malefic character develops, it means that one’s own senses will naturally develop as well.
The problem was that the stronger Hyul’s thought body became, the more difficult it would be to control him.
‘That will somehow be prevented with the seal of the winter world… ‘I can’t help it.’
What was urgent right now was myself.
Elric’s eyes shone coldly.
What can you do?
Even if you don’t say anything. That intention was conveyed intact to Hyul’s thought body.
Kikiki kick.
okay. Good idea. Maybe it’s because I’ve been feasting for the first time in a while, but I happened to be able to use something really good.
Only then did Elric realize.
In the meantime, the fact that Hyul’s thought form became even more clear.
The level has already passed from advanced to rare.
Apparently, it grew in size by quickly eating the demons that the guardians had killed.
Truly, he was a guy you should never pay attention to.
Now, thanks to that, I can use my strength.
Tsutsutsutsu-
good. So relax.
The shadow moved.
accept me
For a moment.
The black shadows that Elric had scattered everywhere formed a whirlpool and were sucked into him at breakneck speed.
As the shadow passed over Elric’s body, it slowly seeped into the ice spear.
The ice window, which had been transparent enough to see the other side just a moment ago, turned pitch black.
It’s as if the shadows have been compressed as they should be. The black spear, pressed to its limit, roared harshly.
Whoa whoa-
Kieeeeek!
A ghostly sound that rang out with the sound of a window.
There was something eerie hidden in it that made people feel chills just by hearing it.
At the same time, Elric could feel his sense of haunting being further amplified and his entire spirit being placed on the tip of the spear.
This moment.
He had a strong feeling that he and the window were connected as one.
The body is one body.
The secret that only those who have achieved the level of martial arts can reach was unfolding in Elric’s hands.
Even if Hyul’s thought body took advantage of Elric’s possessed state to forcibly bring him to this point, that alone was already an incredible feat.
Fuuuuuuu!
That sound came from the tip of the spear.
Even though he simply thrust forward, the spear pierced the space and pierced Judas’ head in one go.
The magical storm that swirled around his body. The seal of digestion that eats anything. The seal of madness that amplified aerial power. The attack that tried to tear Elric apart.
None of them could stop the advance of that blow.
Judah’s head flew off in an instant.
The ice spear that had completed its function also exploded.
Until right before I die. The guy didn’t seem to even notice what was happening to him.
And then the ice heat follows.
So so so so-
Cha cha cha chang!
Bing poison immediately covered the remaining body.
Without even having time to get trapped in the ice, cracks spread throughout his body and scattered into dozens or hundreds of pieces.
Kikiki kick! thank you for this food.
Hyul’s thought form did not miss that moment. With its jagged teeth clearly exposed, it ate up all the pieces of Judah’s body that were pouring down below.
At the same time, as if it meant that he would keep his promise, he swallowed only the Seal of Sohwa and handed over the remaining Seals of Magic and Madness to Elric.
Paaaa-
Meanwhile, the seal of the evil star began to slowly transform into a new form, emitting a cold light.
Murderous murder.
It has once again surpassed its limits and evolved into a new form.
Thanks to this, Elric was able to feel not only a ghostly feeling, but also a level of aggression added to his magic power.
‘Just a handful… !’
He had no time to worry about that at all.
They are just busy replacing some of the magical energy they took while killing Judas with magical energy.
This was because the magic circuit was completely gone and the two powers, North Wind and Hansul, also stopped.
The possession has been lifted. The summoning of the guardian was also canceled entirely.
“Yu, Yuda?”
“Judas is dead!”
“Mervinger is also dying! “Kill me somehow!”
The remaining demons belatedly judged the situation and rushed out to somehow catch Elric.
Within the Grigori, they are like the lives of flies.
However, rather than capturing Elric, it was clear that they would all be divided if they returned with only the Bishop, their main force, lost.
So, when Elric showed signs of running away, he tried to stop him.
Even among the Grigori, they were only at the bottom and didn’t know much about it until now.
What kind of person is Elric?
The reason he needed a handful of magical power wasn’t just to escape.
It was to trigger traps that the guardians had laid out in advance according to his will.
“【Explode】.”
He is Elric Mervinger.
He must be the contemporary head of the Mervinger family, who are said to be the natural enemies of the demons.
Running away from the family’s old enemies was absolutely impossible.
Puff puff poop!
Crumbling-
“What is this!”
“Uh, when… !”
“Oops!”
The demons were unable to come to their senses as countless explosions occurred beneath their feet.
They didn’t know that the guardians had planted magical bullets all over the ice that had been laid using cold snow.
The magical energies of previously dead demons were gathered separately and placed here and there like land mines.
It happened so quietly that no one knew.
And even if I noticed it too late, it was already too late.
Because at that time, his life had already disappeared.
click!
click!
in between.
Only the sound of Hyul’s thought body busy moving around and devouring the remains of the broken demons echoed throughout the battlefield.
Wizard who swallowed talent
