Chapter 317 – The Trap

Isaac watched the battle between the Paladin and Zahir through Tilman’s eyes.
Tillman is his pupil and puppet.
Not only Tilman, but all of Isaac’s disciples are like that.
For Isaac, disciples are convenient tools.
Making disciples is easy.
If you pretended to be an ordinary wizard, it wouldn’t be a problem for you to take on disciples, but you just refrained from being caught by the Church of Terra.
Isaac cleverly manipulates his disciples.
He doesn’t even have to meet and give orders.
The consciousness of the disciples was connected to him, and when he gave instructions, the disciples acted thinking that it was their own will.
It was even possible to take control of their minds if necessary.
All of Tilman’s actions were all driven by Isaac’s will.
He was completely unaware of that fact, and even at this moment when he had to run away, his mind was taken over by Isaac and he was providing him with a view.
The 6 Sword Masters were defeated by Unho and the Paladins without much effort.
Isaac was already aware of Unho’s ability to some extent.
A human named Unho was a terrifying strongman who slaughtered the sword master Jerome and his five disciples in an instant.
‘I expected it…But I was overpowered faster than I thought. But there is no disruption to the plan.’
Fortunately, the mage lord did not accompany the paladins.
I was lucky.
In this way, it was not a problem to annihilate the humans and paladins of Unho here.
‘If that’s the case…’
Isaac glanced at the corpse of Payaz, the master of Karim’s guild, lying quietly next to the sarcophagus. His neck and arm, which had been severed, were attached intact at some point.
Following the Sword Master, if he acquired the body of a transcendental figure, he would be able to make up for the loss this time.
“Felix, start.”
Hearing Isaac’s words, Felix struck down the center of the magic circle with the tip of his staff.
Then, the people inside the glass tubes that were lined up like decorations along the wall burst out one by one in agony.
The magic circle where Felix was standing began to light up more brightly, and his skin shrank and changed as if only skin was covering his bones.
In an instant, he looked as if he had aged 100 years.
Even so, Felix opened his closed eyes and said as if nothing had happened.
“The ritual is over… It should be fine for about an hour.”
“An hour…That should be enough.”
Isaac’s gaze moved back to Tilman’s.

The black magician’s condition was somewhat strange.
Unlike the first time I saw him, his expression doesn’t show a single emotion.
Was it shocking that the sword masters I trusted were overpowered in vain?
“Your Holiness, I’m going to catch him.”
I nodded.
It was the moment Judith was about to move.
-Dooung…
A disparate magical power that I have never felt before fills up around me.
Suddenly, my body felt heavy.
It didn’t affect me much, but it was an obvious anomaly.
And the world turned red.
Suddenly, a huge red curtain covered the fortress.
“Your Holiness! This, this is a barrier. The surrounding area is full of demons. It’s clear that the warlock messed with this fortress!”
Judith screamed in surprise.
As she listened to her words, she seemed to have felt this kind of magic when dealing with warlocks before.
“Keep it off!!”
And suddenly, Zahir begins to glow, twisting her body.
It’s not just Zahir.
All of the Sword Masters who were subdued by us cast a twist on their entire body.
The grotesque twisting of the whole body was like seeing humans possessed by evil spirits that we saw in a horror movie somewhere.
-Puffer puffer puck!!!
At the same time, the bodies of the adventurers and wizards on top of the castle wall burst out.
“Quaaaaagh!!!”
“Sah, save me!”
And their torn blood and flesh gushed upward and were absorbed into the bloody veil that covered the citadel.
It wasn’t just on the walls.
Even inside the citadel, innumerable veins of blood gushed up backwards.
I felt like I knew what had happened to the humans inside even without seeing it.
‘Isn’t this… Paladins dangerous too?’
Looking at the paladins, they were still suffering.
“Martin!”
At Theodore’s cry, Martin hurriedly raises the flag.
Then, a golden shield mixed with Terra’s energy from that large flag was created and wrapped around the paladins, and the paladins’ faces became comfortable.
Fortunately, the shield seemed to be working.
“Kwaaaaak!!”
One of the subdued Sword Masters let out a desperate scream.
-Fuck!!!
His chest exploded and a large red arm stretched out.
The Sword Master was absorbed into that gigantic arm as it was.
“…”
The other sword masters were in the same situation.
Some guys have huge, thick legs.
Some of them had huge torsos that were made with embarrassment.
I know that something unusual is going on.
I swung my greatsword at the huge arm that had become a Sword Master.
– Tup!
“…Her?”
It was a blow with destructive power that even a sword master could not possibly block. However, the huge arm grabbed my greatsword as if it had eyes.
And he started to struggle with me.
Even though it only has arms, it is more powerful than I thought.
The Sword Master seemed to have been upgraded to become a huge arm.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like what you wanted…
Still, in the end, the gigantic arm couldn’t defeat me in a contest of strength, and he let go of his greatsword.
When I try to attack more powerfully, it runs away like a ghost.
“Your Holiness, the demonic energy felt from them is unusual!”
Judith also tried to attack the huge limbs that the Sword Master had transformed into, but she evaded her attack by moving like a cockroach, unlike a large mass.
It’s kind of like taking medicine.
“Keuouk!! What is this!!!”
Zahir, who came to his senses, was perplexed by this bizarre phenomenon in which his subordinates became gigantic limbs and bodies.
“No way…T, Tilman!! Is it your fault!!”
“I’m sorry. Zahir-sama. But haven’t you had a good dream?”
The black magician didn’t even look at him and answered expressionlessly.
“Tillman—!!!”
Zahir roared in anger.
But he was no exception.
-Fuck!!
The body was contorted as if it were being crumpled, and something that resembled a huge lump of flesh swelled there.
And I thought the dough worked well, and then a certain shape was formed.
It was the head
A huge monster head with two goat horns.
Seeing the unusual sights happening one after another, even a fool could roughly guess what the situation was.
“Um…Was it a trap?”
It seems that they were targeting us.
The huge limbs, torso, and heads created by each Sword Master are combined.
– Iron puck! Smack!
Red skin as if soaked in blood and two curved goat horns on an exceptionally large head.
A red-skinned soybean giant that was well over 10 meters tall was born.
It’s not that it’s not a national rule not to interfere with coalescence… It coalesced in the blink of an eye.
“…Variety.”
The faces of the suffering Zahir and the Sword Masters were embedded in the giant’s body.
One in the center of the forehead.
One in the name.
Two on the back of the hand and two on the knee.
“…What is that? Is it the Demon Lord…Something like that?”
The filthy Posman on the outside was enough to make him look like a demon king.
“There’s no way the demon king can be summoned so easily. And it’s not the image of the demon king passed down in Terahism. I think it might be… A high-ranking demon in the demon realm. But… Even a high-ranking demon can’t be summoned so easily… “
Judith slurred her words in disbelief.
Her face hardened and I could feel that she was very nervous.
That’s how much power I feel from him.
“This space is also a problem. It is constantly sucking life force.”
There was nothing major wrong with me, but it seemed to be somewhat of a burden to Judith.
《Huh… It’s been a while since I’ve come. Well… Not so bad.”
The red eyes of the big head demon giant headed this way.
To be precise, it was on the side of the Paladins.
《You can feel the dirty energy of Terra.》
The soybean devil raised his big foot and stepped on the protective shield that Martin was maintaining.
-Thud.
– Awesome!!
The paladin’s protective shield cracked and swayed.
“Keuuk!!”
Martin, who was holding the shield, fell to his knees and vomited blood.
– Chijijik…
Smoke rises from the part that touched the shield and his feet.
“Okay…Let’s see how long it lasts.”
The soybean devil laughs viciously.
The guy had a spare.
He seemed to be having fun with the fact that he was playing with paladins.
Theodore and the Paladins hurriedly try to kick off the feet of the soaring demon, but he doesn’t budge.
The geese that lay my golden eggs were in danger.
I couldn’t watch any more.
I made the greatsword even bigger to match the giant and swung it at the ankle that was stepping on the protective shield.
– Squeak!!
Bay had a lot more resistance than I thought.
Still, it was cut.
‘It takes a lot more power than I thought… It might be the best among monsters.’
The soybean devil cut off his ankle, but showed no sign of pain.
It looks like it was bitten by a mosquito.
The severed foot also naturally returned to its original place and was attached.
The big eyes of the soybean demon giant naturally move to me, who cut off his ankle.
Then he tilted his big head and asked.
“Hmm? What? What about your guy?”
