Chapter 529 – Gluttony

Willas swept away his shocked heart as he came to the brink of death.
He almost died.
Frisco was a demon whose level had risen considerably.
There must be chimeras around, and Willas thought that with Frisco, he could easily take out at least one knight.
But it was a mistake.
I didn’t even know he was a magic swordsman, and he was stronger than expected.
I might have had the strength to fight more.
However, I thought that if the time to remove the body had been delayed, the two would not have been able to avoid extinction together.
I feel sorry for Frisco, but it was better for one to live than for two to die… And for me, who was at a higher level, to live.
“Willas, what happened to what happened?”
Kunak, who was busy pouring out magic at the paladins, glanced at Willas and asked.
Willas said he was going to deal with a knight who had caught his eye, and briefly left the battle.
Kunak seemed curious about the results.
“Of course… I took care of it.”
Willas lied without realizing it.
And he carefully looked at Khunak’s eyes.
Fortunately, Kunak was busy fighting with her paladin, so she didn’t seem to have any intention of confirming her words.
It seemed like he couldn’t even dream that someone would die while dealing with a knight who wasn’t even a paladin.
Fortunately, Frisco, who went with him, didn’t seem to be interested.
If Khun Nak had any interest in Frisco’s whereabouts, she would have been in trouble.
Willas had been defeated miserably, but he could not tell the truth to anyone.
If the demons knew the truth, it was obvious that the current confrontation with the Holy Knights would quickly collapse.
Willas was troubled.
As time passed, I became more anxious.
He once again looked at the place where the magic swordsman was.
He was leisurely yet quickly tearing down the Giant Chimeras.
It was clear that once all the Giant Chimeras were taken care of, he would head this way.
In order to properly deal with him, he would probably have to take out a significant number of demons… But he couldn’t do that because then the tight balance of the battle would be broken.
“Gulp…”
Although he thought of many possibilities… Only one conclusion came to Willas’ mind.
‘This… Can’t be done.’
Willas quietly rolled his eyes and looked at the demons fighting with the paladins.
Fortunately, perhaps because all the attention was focused on stopping the Holy Knights, it seemed that no demons were able to properly understand the battlefield yet.
“…”
Currently, Willas’ avatar is approaching the avatar that achieved the greatest growth in the past… Through this event.
It would have been a shame to lose that here and now.
‘Shit! This is why things got so complicated because these guys attacked Ramona at will. If you had followed the devil and hit Rankin like I said, this wouldn’t have happened! So it’s not my fault!’
With that rationalization, Willas decided to use the last resort.
‘I didn’t know I would use this method…’
As he was a member of Pantera, he knew tricks that others did not know.
《Messner, prepare the Orb of Gluttony.》
Willas secretly sent a message magic to the warlock Messner.
Messner was the servant of the warlock who summoned Willas. Like other warlocks, if she is a demon, she will die in a blink.
《Ta, do you mean the phrase of gluttony? Then, the siege…》
“The siege is not the problem. The situation is unusual. If things continue like this, we will be annihilated.》
《Ah, I understand.》
After giving his final instructions to his servant, the warlock, Willas quietly withdrew from the battlefield without his demons noticing.

‘Why are you hiding the core in a place like this? .’
I plunged the great sword into the right hip of the last Chimera Giant.
-Simplicity and honesty…
The giant whose energy-supplying core has been shattered falls to the ground.
-Cow…
There was no interference from the demons until I took care of the last Chimera Giant.
I looked at the place where the Holy Knights were fighting.
The fight between the Holy Knights and the demons still maintained a tight balance.
The demons also show that they are more united than at first.
They are also humans who think.
If you couldn’t even do that, you had to question your intelligence.
I headed to the battlefield where the splendid magic of the demons and the swords of the paladins were rampant.
-Clap!!
My great sword cut the upper body of the demon, who was preoccupied with the paladin, in two.
“Huh!! What…?!”
Suddenly, the demon who was stabbed from behind looks back at me in surprise.
I cut that surprised face in half with a bayonet.
It was not difficult to drive a sword into the back of a demon whose entire attention was focused on the battle with the paladins.
“Back, back! Ouch!!”
As I started to hit the back, the demons started to panic so much that they passed by.
I felt like things were easier than I thought. And I couldn’t help but have a small question about that.
‘What… You didn’t prepare anything?’
I clearly remember that a demon named Willas ran away here.
If he was a thoughtful person, he should have informed his compatriots of the dangers I am.
“W-what?! U, Willas, what should I do! Huh? Where did this bastard go?”
“Now that I think about it, it seems like you’ve been quiet since a while ago…”
“What the fuck? Seriously, didn’t it just splatter?!”
“Ugh!! No!”
The demons were taken aback by my unexpected attack and collapsed in an instant.
You can even see people giving up the fight and running away.
“Willas! You damn bastard!! Run away alone?!”
The demons resented the demon named Willas and were destroyed one by the combined attack of the Paladins.
‘Willas… This guy is still doing it too much. Could it be that he just did this without warning his fellow countrymen?’
“Lord Bark! I heard it from Lord Hestia, but it was a really great article. It was a great help!”
Azaz approaches me with a bright face and heaps praise on me.
After she defeated quite a few demons, she seemed to be in a good mood.
“Lord Bark, what do you think? We should take refuge in the Church of Terra. Thanks to you, the biggest threat has been easily eliminated. You will easily be able to occupy the position of Knight Commander.”
“I’m sorry. I’m satisfied with my life now.”
The Holy Knights were made up of elites that could not even be compared to Ramonawan.
It’s a bit tempting, but… No matter how much I believe in the sealing skill, it was too much for the leader of the Holy Knights of Terraism.
“I see… If you have any thoughts, please tell me anytime. What’s next… Hmm?”
The movements of the chimeras have changed.
It didn’t seem like a retreat…
Instead of climbing Ramona’s castle wall, I started heading somewhere.
And where they were heading, black magicians were gathered and doing something.
An ominous glowing sphere sways in the center of the warlocks who are seated in a circle. They were stretching out their hands towards the sphere.
Anyone can see that they are carrying out a suspicious ritual.
That’s not all.
The chimeras were being sucked into the sphere.
“… It looks like they’re trying to do something strange! We have to stop them!”
I and the Holy Knights hurriedly headed to the warlocks who were performing a strange ritual.
As we move, the sphere floating in the air gradually gains flesh. And tentacles began to protrude from the surface.
It looked like a sea urchin.
It was too big for a sea urchin.
And a change occurred in that giant sphere that looked like a sea urchin.
-Chollarak!
It spread out its tentacles in all directions and began to grow bigger by swallowing up the surrounding chimeras.
It was already easily over 10 meters in diameter.
Even as we approached, the movements of the warlocks who stretched out their hands toward the giant tentacle sphere did not change.
The paladins began to hit the necks of the defenseless warlocks.
Haha… It’s too late!! Dogs of Terra! You can’t stop the coming destruction… K-up!!”
Tentacles extending from the sphere wrap around the warlock. And I pulled him in.
It seemed like they were trying to absorb it like chimeras.
“Su, ascend to heaven-!!”
The warlock shouted happily and was swallowed by the sphere.
‘Crazy guys…’
The warlocks were killed by the paladin’s sword or swallowed by the giant tentacle sphere.
There was no experience gained.
‘Is it because that guy absorbed it?’
“Something unusual is happening! That ugly sphere must be destroyed!”
Under Azaz’s instructions, the Paladins and I rushed towards the sea urchin sphere.
Tentacle attacks are pouring down on us.
-Clap, rattle!!
The tentacle attack of the giant sea urchin monster did not pose as much of a threat to the Paladins as expected.
The Paladins who approached the tentacle sphere cut its surface and plunged their swords into it.
The knife got stuck, but it was soon recovered. It didn’t seem like there was any damage as he didn’t even flinch.
Despite the chopping and cutting by me and the Holy Knights, the tentacle sphere engulfed the flocking chimeras and grew in size.
I decided to focus my consciousness and look at the sphere.
It was to find out if there were any weaknesses like the chimera giants.
“…”
The tentacle sphere did not have any weaknesses like the Chimera Giant. Should I say that, minus the tentacles waving on the outside, the rest feels like a full core?
As the sphere grew in size and the number of tentacles increased, the Paladins had no choice but to hesitate and retreat from the center.
‘It won’t be easy…’
It is not hard.
However, it had tremendous regenerative ability.
There are no obvious weaknesses.
Can the Archmage’s wide-area magic handle it?
But now there was no archmage in Ramona.
Hestia and Azaz were also frowning, and it seemed like they couldn’t figure out anything right now.
Just like that, the giant tentacle sphere that was swallowing the chimeras floated and began to move slowly.
“Wow, we’re in big trouble! He’s heading to Ramona!!”
Hestia shouted with an urgent look on her face.
