Chapter 302 – 302. Wraith Return (4)
=========================
Chasing thunderbolts,
It was virtually impossible to evade pursuit at speeds faster than lightning.
So Corte….
He decided that it would be better to fight head-on rather than waste his stamina pointlessly.
Aaaaa
Black thunderbolts falling like meteors,
Shadows swept away by lightning began to tremble like living creatures.
“Kuk!”
As if it would burn your eyes,
I came face to face with super-high-temperature lightning that seemed to set my whole body on fire.
Corte involuntarily drooled.
Then he raised his arms and covered his face.
“Elf?”
The shadow was lifted by lightning, revealing a beautiful figure with blue hair down to the waist.
Yushin, who saw this,
He looked surprised to see her long pointed ears.
After the being with the power of the devil invaded Maherit’s palace, he hurriedly pursued his back as he was leaving at a high speed. At the end of such a fierce pursuit, Yushin came face to face with a strange being whose identity was difficult to clearly determine.
“Yusin Gilead.”
The Demon King of Explosives with the pointy ears of an elf looked at Yushin with an expression of embarrassment.
As if embracing a ray of light in the abyss,
Beautiful jet-black eyes flashed in the eyes.
She was a woman with beautiful eyes, to the point where it was regrettable that she only had one eye. However, within that beauty was the power of an explosion that could instantly annihilate countless lives.
“Elf… No I don’t think he’s of mixed blood.”
“I am a reincarnated demon who was resurrected as a demon. He was an elf in his lifetime, but now he is a demon king who has inherited the power of explosives.”
“Is that possible?”
Yushin reacted with great surprise at Corte’s explanation, and she asked again.
Would you say it’s bizarrely twisted?
In her lifetime, she was an elf, but after being resurrected as a demon, the existence of Corte dos Liberia, who inherited the magic core of the explosion and rose to the seat of the six demon kings, was bizarre.
Of course, it was nothing compared to Gilead, who became the seventh demon king with the magic core he had stolen from Savnak.
“So what’s the handsome demon king doing in the elves’ realm?”
“I have come to declare war.”
“It’s nice because it’s easy to understand.”
Yushin shrugged her shoulders at Corté’s confident declaration of war.
The reason why the demon king invaded the territory of the elves,
Of course, there must be only one reason for that.
Corté’s actions, which reveal her own purpose coolly inside her, were so confident that even Yushin felt embarrassed. She had a strong sense of purpose in her steady voice.
“Then you are an enemy.”
A long blast of her black thunderbolt blade swooped down on Corte.
The attack started as soon as it recognized that it was an enemy,
Corté grimaced at the sight of the thunder that erupted furiously as if it would burn her whole body at any moment.
“Restore Gilead!”
Tuhaang!!!
The Demon King of Explosive Slashes swung his long whip like a snake and slashed the blade of the black thunderbolt.
Depth charges and explosions colliding in the air,
The two powers collided with each other, causing a violent reaction.
When powers with the same properties collide, they tend to merge with each other, but since the powers of Depth Charge originated from the powers of heat waves, they only showed a reaction against the power of the other party because it was a greatly changed power.
“Down to death.”
Corté raised his hand.
At the same time, chains stained in pitch black rose from the floor, aiming for Yushin.
Restraints smeared with the poison of an explosion,
After tying all limbs to prevent the target from escaping or resisting, it is sentenced to a death that cannot be resuscitated.
“Huh.”
Rings were formed on the blade of the thunderbolt sword, and at the same time, a dazzling pitch-black light was emitted.
After manifesting the Sword Saint Reinhilder’s sword,
He cut down all the restraints flying from all directions.
Unlike the situation where he showed a sloppy appearance when fighting the tyrant Vortigan, he seemed to have become easier in handling the skills of the swordsman, probably because he had repeatedly undergone thorough bone-cutting training.
“Is it an extreme death attribute that makes even the slightest touch cause death…. It’s very brutal.”
Chi profit.
As soon as the fragments of the restraints smashed by the blade fell to the ground, the soil began to rot and the grass began to wither.
Who trampled on life and robbed it of vitality,
It was more terrible than the power of the tyrant Vortigan, who used the white color of corruption. This is because, unlike the white color of corruption that slowly kills the opponent, the power named as explosive kills the opponent at once.
“The words that you defeated Savnak seem to be true. It’s worthy of being targeted by a beast of lust. If that monster is rare, it will light up its eyes and attack you.”
Corte, who experienced the power of the Restoration,
I understood the words of the vampire queen who advised me to be especially wary of him.
Yushin Gilead, he surely had the power to threaten the six demon lords.
“If you knew that, you shouldn’t have come here.”
“You came first.”
To Yushin’s provocation, Corte replied with a frown on his face.
Who is the rolling stone?
Asking that itself would be a very insulting act to Corte.
Even though he fell as a reincarnation demon, he was the priest who was worshiped as a living god by the elves in the past. From Corte’s point of view, it was rather a stone from which the existence of Gilead, the God of Restoration, was a tumbled stone, a variable that suddenly appeared.
“I heard that I was an elf in my previous life, so it might seem that way.”
When Yushin tried to run again,
A gentle reed wind blew in the center of the depth charges and explosions.
Soon, a light purple elf woman appeared as she stepped onto the ground with her signature light steps.
“Wait a moment, Mr. Gilead.”
El suddenly appeared,
She restrained Yushin as she reached out her hand.
Yushin nodded his head at El’s words and took a step back while calming the violent black lightning.
“Corte dos Liberia.”
Corté, alarmed by the elven oath that revealed her appearance without any sign of her, weakly trembled her shoulders when she suddenly called her own name.
Is the elven nature left,
As if obeying the call of the pledgee representing her tribe, she lowered her head slightly.
“Chief? Dos… It must mean second generation in Elvish.”
Upon hearing El’s name, Yushin let out a questioning murmur.
Ilayna’s middle name is Tress.
It was an Elvish word meaning third generation.
And dos.
That elf, whose middle name was an elvish word meaning “Second generation,” Was undoubtedly meant to be the second high priest who was Ilaina’s predecessor.
‘No, definitely Ardena… The second priest said he died prematurely due to a mysterious death.’
The 2nd priest known to have died,
After becoming the Demon Lord of Explosive Slaughter, did he not return to the realm of the elves?
Yushin recalled the case of Vortigan, who was killed by the swordsman Reinhilder 800 years ago and then resurrected.
“You have become a demon….”
El seems bitter,
He smiled self-deprecatingly.
“I had to somehow become a devil in order to challenge the demon king for usurpation. Because only those who came from another world could kill the demon lord while ignoring the immortal favor bestowed by the demon god on the six demon lords.”
Just as Savnak killed the Demon King of Heat Wave and usurped the Demon Core, Corte, who was resurrected as a reincarnated demon, also killed the Demon King of Explosion and usurped the Magic Core.
But why… ,
Was it necessary to kill the demon lord and take away the demon nucleus until he fell into an ugly demon?
After hearing Corte’s explanation, Yushin naturally had such a question.
“I will destroy the world of elves built on the foundation of lies with my own hands.”
The Demon King of Explosive Slaughter tightly gripped his grip, revealing his vengeful spirit that had turned into hatred.
Yushin could not know Corte’s purpose, but
He learned that the reason for his purpose was vengeful. The appearance of being tainted with vengeance is very similar to Savnak, who lost all of his men and went mad with vengeance.
“Because this kind of world deserves to be destroyed at the hands of the demon king!”
The cry of the former priest who had turned into a vengeful spirit pierced El’s heart.
Like a sharp dagger piercing the heart,
The corruption of the head of the priest, who was the object of worship and devotion, returned as a pain to the oath to protect them.
“Why….”
“You wouldn’t know! How terrible things have been done in this land where so many dying brethren live! You, who have wandered aimlessly across the continent, drowning in the pain and guilt of the past! How can I know that I lived my life pretending to be a lofty hero!”
Just like gunpowder burns out,
The elf inside Chuck, who had maintained a cool face like an ice field, suddenly distorted his face and showed his emotions very fiercely.
They strongly criticized her for living her nomadic life, wandering the continent for hundreds of years, completely ignoring the affairs of her compatriots.
“Even if only you were in this country… !”
Like all of her compatriots, Corte was an elf who had admired El Cid since her childhood.
A hero with lofty honor and pride.
El Cid, who appears as the main character in a children’s book, was the perfect hero for the young elf.
But when I became the priest, I realized. The hero she admired since childhood, who was considered a perfect hero, was nothing more than her specter who could not overcome the pain of her past and hovered in her eternal regret.
“… Her father would not have died a miserable death.”
Corté, who drove El Cid with her sincere hatred, eventually turned her head away.
She was once an object of faith,
A monster that has been corrupted into the King of Manma, the enemy of all races.
Corte, who took off the mask of ruthlessness that suppressed her nature, was a vengeful spirit who thoroughly fell into the path of vengeance, a being that only moved for revenge against her compatriots.
“I hate you.”
As if a woman who had vomited vengeance would disintegrate with her ink, it became a jet-black shadow and began to disperse.
It is a ploy to escape again.
In response, Yushin tried to cut off her shadow while grabbing the hilt wrapped in her thunderbolt.
Dark shadows disappeared beneath the ground first.
“Whoa, are you feeling weak again?”
Yushin put the sword he drew back into the scabbard. Then she turned her head and asked El.
“Sorry. Fury… Did you get a lot?”
At L’s cautious question,
Yushin nodded his head with a slightly angry expression.
“Yes, I am angry. Because of Sir El Cid, who is still tied to the past. I thought she would have completely shaken off the obsession of the past…. You still feel sorry for yourself.”
Unfortunately, what I missed wasn’t particularly important.
It will reappear anyway.
All you have to do is prepare a way to counter the power of the explosion, and then aim for the end when it reappears.
Yushin was furious with El Cid, who once again showed resentment and regret for his past self, trembling at Corte’s criticism and hatred.
Will Elle return to her past self… ,
Yushin was worried that he would return to the past on his own, stained with pain and fear.
“Every time I see Sir El Cid like that, I feel threatened.”
“Sorry. I’m a bit anxious….”
In Yushin’s words mixed with concern,
L apologized with her sincerity.
“How can I stop Sir El Cid’s anxiety?”
Yushin asked.
At that, El put on a puzzled expression for a moment,
Soon, her white cheeks blushed and she raised her head to meet Yushin’s gaze.
“Then, so that I can get rid of my anxiety… With your two arms, Mr. Gilead, with your two arms… Please hug me.”
At the appeal of a beauty tinged with light purple,
Yoo-shin, who heard the voice full of pleading, looked as embarrassed as L, who blushed her face.
So embarrassing,
Because it was an unexpected request.
She vowed to do anything for El, the precious teacher of her beloved lover, but she never thought he would ask for an act of affection between a man and a woman….
“Not… Does it… ?”
Like a dog in the rain,
Like a puppy drenched in cold rain,
Seeing L looking up at her with a pitiful and pitiful expression, Yushin was at a loss for words for a moment.
