Chapter 165 – 165. Because You Called the Thunder (2)
===================
Eight Swords of Thunder (雷鳴八劍)
Thunderstorm
Lightning flashed.
Fierce yet fierce,
A sharp and quick blow broke through thousands of troops in a zigzag fashion.
“Keukhak!”
A blue thunderbolt flashed.
And at that moment,
The vampires who were being protected by the knights in full body armor were scattered in ashes in an instant.
“Prepare for lightning! Block the thunder!!”
“Everyone protect me! Protect me with your insignificant bodies!”
The screams of the vampires echoed everywhere.
The demon lord slayer raided.
Every time the lightning flashed, the vampires had to scream in fear at the sight of their fellow countrymen being reduced to ashes and facing a gruesome death.
Pusssss….
There was a sharp burning spark in the place where Yushin traveled at high speed.
Whoa.
After taking a moment to catch your breath,
Once again, he broke through the army with high-speed movement and cut the vampire’s body, which was being protected by the knights, with a thunderbolt sword.
“Ugh!”
“Huh….”
At the same time that the vampires were destroyed, the soldiers of the Kingdom Army who were freed from the curse of enchantment fell unconscious.
The curse was finally lifted.
After a long period of abuse, severe pain in the limbs and aftereffects will follow, but there will be no damage to life.
Yushin saved the kingdom army that had advanced to the Earl of Roxfield while weeding out and destroying only the vampires.
Wow!!!
Lightning crashed from the sky.
They hurriedly deployed transfer magic or turned into bats and hit the vampires who were trying to escape.
The scene of countless vampires disappearing in an instant was unbelievably over in an instant.
“Aaah!!”
Last vampire.
After sticking a sharp blade into the nape of the vampire’s neck, he slashed the vampire’s throat as he slashed her side.
Her master’s lost neck fell degururusly.
At the same time, her body, which had lost her head, was blown away by the wind in ashes. When the last vampire was annihilated, the thousands of troops lost their grandeur and met silence.
“Lord, are you dead?!”
Alphonse asked in surprise.
Covering himself in a pile of stones, he pointed at the fallen knights of the Kingdom Army with his head sticking out.
Yushin shook his head.
It may look dead, but the breath is intact.
Didn’t he just target the vampires and annihilate them in an effort to save thousands of kingdom troops? Thanks to quick action, it was possible to finish without unnecessary casualties.
‘It was said that noble officers dispatched from the royal family have been winning a series of victories against the militia since they started leading the troops….’
Yushin muttered the story he had heard from the Roxfield family knight.
I thought it was a difficult story to understand.
How could the remnants of the militia turn the tide of war in an instant?
Besides, an aristocratic officer dispatched from the royal family.
While serving as the Seven Swords of the Kingdom of Valois, he had never heard of any aristocratic officers with excellent military tactics in the Valois royal family.
“Allen.”
“Yes, brother.”
“… I think the way back will be far away.”
It is possible that all the kingdom forces sent to subjugate the militia are being manipulated by vampires.
Yushin, whose thoughts had reached that point,
He decided to put off returning to Liberia for a while.
He decided to look into the sympathies of the Kingdom Army.
If, as expected, the kingdom army is playing into the hands of vampires….
Tens of thousands of soldiers,
And it was because all of the tens of millions of citizens of Valois Kingdom were captured by vampires.
“Did you bring an army as soon as you found out I was in the Earldom of Roxfield?”
“Perhaps. Because there was an unpleasant gaze that clung to the princess.”
What are you up to?
Yushin, feeling a strong sense of uneasiness, glared at the northeast where the royal capital, Rutemine, was located.
It seemed that Lutemine, the city of light that symbolized the prosperity and glory of the kingdom, had become a den of vampires. I wish it was my mood, but… , Judging from the unfortunate cases so far, it seemed unlikely that it would end because of mood.
“Then they’re going to attack!”
She put on a thrilling expression as Allen clenched her fists excitedly.
Beating up and causing mayhem.
This is Allen’s favorite specialty of hers.
Even so, she hadn’t had a proper fight since the battle with Savnak, so her mad dog looked full of hope.
“Oh, no! You must have decided to go to the Liberia Elves, right? It’s the Liberia Elf Country! We must go to the place where the elves are as soon as possible!”
The kingdom is already wrong.
Having witnessed the existence of the vampires with his own eyes, Alphonse raised his voice saying that he should go to the safe country of the elves in Liberia.
It’s a statement that doesn’t show the slightest quality.
Should I just kill him and bury him in a secluded place? At the selfish and self-righteous Alphonse’s insistence, Yushin sincerely contemplated killing and abandoning the body.
“Shut up, you asshole!”
“Queack!!”
It knocked over Alphonse, who was screaming as Allen kicked her.
The prince screamed.
Judging by the pain pouring out while holding on to his leg, he must have been kicked quite seriously.
“… Break her arm, but don’t touch her leg.”
“Oh right.”
“Are you picking up?”
“No. I feel really bad.”
“Ha.”
Yushin let out a deep sigh.
To act without covering up.
Of course, I wanted to hit him too, so I understand.
“Didn’t I say that the princess had a fixed gaze? It must be a high-ranking vampire belonging to the head among vampires. She might be Lord or Elder, maybe even the vampire queen who succeeded Agareth to become the demon king of tyranny.”
“How do you know so well?”
“You don’t know how to eat jjambab in vain.”
Yushin, who answered Allen’s question, witnessed the army of the Earl of Roxfield coming from afar.
It looked like a troyd.
Yushin, who frowned at Count Roxfield’s face for a moment, had to let out a sigh as he looked at the fallen soldiers of the Kingdom Army with a blue-eyed expression.
How could the kingdom of Valois have been ruined so horribly? As a knight who had once been in the kingdom, she was to be greatly lamented.
“Allen! Bow down!”
After staring at her fallen soldiers for a while, Yushin sensed something in her and stretched out her arm to block Allen’s way.
And at that moment,
A torrent mixed with red demonic energy flew like an aftershock following the impact.
A violent storm engulfed the humans on the ground in an instant. The soldiers of the Kingdom Army who fell on the dirt floor were excited. It wasn’t powerful enough to blow it away completely, but it had enough power to make the fallen body roll like a corpse.
“Fuck, what the hell is this….”
Cool cool!
Yushin coughed and spat out the demonic energy, as if he felt bad just swallowing the torrent mixed with the red demonic energy.
It smelled like blood.
It was clearly the smell of human blood.
Magi who can feel the smell of human blood.
It was clearly an artificial demon created with human as material. Otherwise, there’s no way it would emit a fishy smell that would make your nose a mess.
“Wow!”
Allen, who had a far superior sense of smell than others, vomited for a moment.
It was disgusting, like swallowing a handful of blood.
It felt like my stomach was about to turn upside down, as if I had inhaled blood through my nose and mouth.
Where the hell do you mean the flight? Allen glared at the direction from which the red torrent flew, with a look full of murderous intent.
“Allen, look over there. The sky….”
Yushin called her.
Because of her excellent sense of smell, Allen, who was struggling with constant nausea, managed to raise her head.
She and she witnessed a shocking scene.
It was because the red rays emitted in a straight line from the ground seemed to pierce the sky full of dark clouds. It was a sight she had never seen in her life, and her Allen’s eyes were filled with amazement.
“One, two, three…. Damn, it’s not just one or two.”
Even the number of red rays she could see with her eyes seemed to exceed 10.
The ominous smell of blood spurred Yushin’s nose on the wind.
Every time the ray spreads furiously,
The bloody smell, symbolizing disaster and destruction, was getting thicker.
“Fuck, that’s really fucked up.”
Yushin scratched the back of her head while spitting out swear words at her.
The vampires who controlled the kingdom army were just the beginning.
The vampires revealed their true colors.
The vampires who had been hiding in the shadows and controlling the kingdom of Valois with cunning whispers finally came onto the stage.
* * *
After being defeated by the Demon King Slayer, Savnak fled to the southern continent with his men.
And he met
Greed, the king of all monsters.
-Hehe, hehahahahahahaha!!
Greed burst into laughter.
Every time he laughed, the huge body that had been laying down on the mountain range with its huge mountain range as a bed shuddered.
Greed boasted a huge body.
One monster had an unbelievable physique that stretched several kilometers.
The monster with a body that dared not be measured by human standards laughed for a long time in front of the person in front of him, as if it was funny that the demon king of the heatwave was defeated by a mere human.
“What’s so funny about it?”
Savnak asked.
At that, the monster raised its huge head lying in the valley and looked at Savnak.
Large golden eyes.
The monster’s eyes were out of standard so that it was hard to believe that they were the eyes of a living being. The other demons except Savnak shuddered in fear at the gaze of the gigantic monster.
-Obviously, El Cid must have been in a position where he could not step out due to the oath…. Even if you lose Does that mean that it also lost to humans? Even though he lived for billions of eons, he still couldn’t keep up with the things of the world.
The demon king of heat wave was defeated by someone other than El Cid.
It’s amazing.
Who could have predicted that the demon king of heatwave, who had been training himself while seeking revenge for hundreds of years, would collapse at the hands of humans.
Greed did not show regret at all even though he had suffered numerous losses due to Savnak’s defeat. Rather, he was overjoyed and began to take great interest in the demon king slayer who was said to have defeated the demon king of heat wave.
-Are you angry, kid?
The gigantic monster that dared to call the demon king of the heat waves ‘little’ moved its huge lower jaw and asked.
A branch stood on Savnak’s face.
Greed, who saw that, nodded his head while smiling viciously.
– The humiliation and shame caused by defeat are unavoidable. Sympathize In the end, the opportunity to redress after hundreds of years of hard work went back to nothing.
“I don’t need any sympathy!”
At the words of greed, Savnak was greatly furious.
When the demon king of the heat wave showed a sincere response, the huge monster revealed it.
– No matter what you think…. You couldn’t keep your promise to me. Because of you, I had to see a huge loss. What will you pay for that loss?
The monster in front of you is the product of all the greed that exists in the world, united and shaped.
It was like a monster created by the logic of greed.
He challenged Savnak by asking how he would repay the property lent to him and how he would repay the loss caused by the breach of contract.
He wasn’t angry.
Just waiting for an answer
Staying silent, I waited for the kid in front of me to play tricks.
“Don’t insult me with your ready-made answers, Grid. You already know the answer That’s probably why it’s keeping me alive until now.”
At Savnak’s wise answer, the giant monster nodded in agreement.
Even in defeat and ruin,
Savnak’s noble fighting spirit was still the same.
Even though he lost half of his demon core and was fatally betrayed by his subordinates, Savnak was still the demon king of the heat waves.
Greed, reaffirming her worth, threw the demon king a job that was more than enough to pay for the loss caused by the non-fulfillment of the treaty.
-Consider yourself lucky, Savnak. Just in time, you have something to do for me. It’s not even polite. There will come a time when you need a hand. I don’t know if there is still a god in this world, but if there is, it may be clear that he is helping you.
It’s the Vampire Queen’s request.
Greed ordered Savnak to act as a solver for the vampires across the sea on behalf of himself who was unable to move due to the oath.
A command, not a request.
The king of monsters included in the oath, with the human swordsman in the center and the elf knight in the west, had the power to dare to command her heat wave demon king, and also had the right to declare her ultimatum to her. .
-Leave your men in my domain. This is collateral A guarantee worthy of you who value your subordinates more than your own life. If I fail this time, I will eat all my subordinates who are more precious than my life.
Greed never makes a losing trade.
Subordinates who have followed Savnak for a long time.
They were the honor and pride of Savnak.
The demon king’s honor and pride, which he has thoroughly guarded for hundreds of years, can be called truly valuable jewels.
Valuable jewels.
It was greed’s favorite prey.
Even if she failed again, it was a deal she would never lose if she could take away the demon lord’s honor and pride.
