Chapter 232 – 231. Blood and Wind on the Eastern Front (2)
-Road to Arcadia-
“Oh, I want to have sex.”
“Me too.”
“? Liz, I’m surprised you said that.”
“That’s right. I wonder who made you talk about it. Also, in the first place, so-and-so was secretly saying that she got pregnant before my real wife.”
Cassandra, that damn foxy bitch. Naturally, she’s subtly possessive of Clark, and she seems proud of herself for having a child first, but guess what?
“There’s something they can’t do for you Clark, so don’t be so upset, okay?”
“I think you’re more annoyed because you couldn’t have sex with Clark.”
“Yes.”
I’m not denying this again.
Six hours have already passed since we headed to Arcadia.
Clark, that crazy ride. The current Liz would go along with the rampage, and the same goes for Mira. Of course, there is no problem even if warp is added to it.
The rest will definitely make you dizzy, but that’s not your part-time job.
The important thing is that we covered that long distance in just 3 hours and headed to the eastern border again.
“The eastern frontier was dangerous.”
“…It was more dangerous than I thought, wasn’t it?”
And when Mira, who can keep her eyes on wherever Clark is, says that, Liz responds.
“Did you say that my younger brother was a second-rank elf warrior? Anyhow, I think he rushed at me to kill him.”
“…It’s still too much to be at Liza’s level.”
At most, Liza can be guaranteed victory in the 3rd rank.
In comparison, what about Leeds?
1st tier.
No, no elf can defeat Liz. That’s why she was called a nightmare by the elves, and seeing her eastern frontiers desecrated by her numerous elf insults after Liz’s fall, in a way, it was like a tribute to her.
In fact, even her gods fear her, and even the Daemon Sultan tells her that she is so strong that he even tries to prevent her from interfering with Clark.
“Well, Clark burned everything in time, so he’ll take care of it. Liz, are you nervous?”
“Something… There’s a lot of unfinished business yet.”
“But you know that’s none of your business, right?”
“…”
Cough, hold your hand.
A hand holding the reins, and a fight with Cassandra, a demon lord whom we had never faced before.
What Gawain said.
-Cassandra’s body is gone.
-…Under?
-If she died, her body would remain. However, the fact that the body is gone means that she is not dead.
-…Good for you. Is it time for me to end it?
And at that Clark shook his head. As always, it’s said that he speaks more evilly than anyone else, but isn’t he actually the best than anyone else?
In words, we talk about cause, justification, status, location, etc., But in the end, does your house come first or this? The point is that it is being said in this way.
-No, it’s not a priority goal right now. And, even if you do encounter it, it may appear as a monster that is impossible to deal with even at its current level. There’s something more important than that, Liz.
-What’s wrong with not being able to reach a conclusion in the past…
-You are a warrior who must protect this country, right?
Like this.
Okay.
He’s always like this.
Frisia is always obsessed with politics HaMaybe it’s because I only look at men, but every time he does that, I really become a woman in front of him.
-Even if I face it, I will survive. And, no matter what desperate situation comes, I will survive and come by your side.
-I will definitely save you.
…
Ah.
Really.
“…I want to have sex.”
“Hehe, then, would you like to have a game with the women who are crazy about Clark’s dick? So even an idiot can figure it out…”
“Get out of here before I cut you down.”
Oh my gosh, I’m so scared, I’m scared, Mira steps back, and Liz tsk and click her tongue, recalling the last words Clark said before he lost consciousness.
And as a result, she was really happy when she got to see him once again.
When she tried to pull herself away, she felt like her heart was breaking.
And-
Even now, the sword hanging on her own wrist.
A sword transformed into a bracelet.
Lunares Poena.
This sword was named Moon’s Punishment.
And Mira was amazed as she looked at the sword that had changed into the shape of a bracelet. It was a sword that Clark created with all his might, to the point where even Mira admired it and felt a desire to own it, and at the same time, it was a sword that could cut down not only themselves, but also beings that were not of this world.
It was none other than a rare magic sword that drew blood from Clark’s heart and finished it with that blood.
Clark is, again, the prince of the stars.
And the king who will lead them in the future, and the king of monsters who will rule the whole world.
In this world, he calls himself the Demon King, and is a being more powerful than those who call themselves Demon Gods.
The result of such a being drawing blood from its own heart and tempering it with the blood of that heart is ferocity itself.
It is an object that has a semi-ego, influenced by Clark’s growth and Liz’s growth.
Perhaps, if the emperor of Uruk sees him, he will make a fuss and demand that he sell all his treasures.
That’s right, it was an artifact so great that even Mira, who had no knowledge of swords, would arouse her greed.
“Take care of that sword.”
“Of course you will. In the first place, you… Draw blood from your own heart to do that. Ugh, if you really do that… You’ll fall in love even more.”
At this point, I wonder who is envious of whom.
I can’t believe I received that much love for only the second topic. From Mira’s point of view, Liz’s complaints are hard to understand, but it doesn’t matter because Clark listens to her more.
I rely on her more than Liz.
Above all, it felt like she was strangely pampering Mira even more after facing her mother’s true intentions.
“Heh…”
Well, that’s enough. In the end, no matter what happens to her, she comes back to herself. Since victory is certain, I will overlook these things with an open mind. Liz knows that, so she feels defeated by Mira even though she has obtained a famous sword that cannot be replaced by anything in the world.
“Arcadia… Is it? Hmm-“
And finally arrived at Arcadia.
Near Vergina, and-
“It’s a lot quieter than I thought.”
“…Of course. The main force is all in Teiba. But that doesn’t mean you can rest assured.”
Quad Deuk-!!!
Then, Liz, riding on top of Pegasus, summons a ‘part’ of Luna Respoena, raises her fist and throws it at the flying object that is preparing to fire at her.
A metal as hard as digging into pudding, a flying object made of the same man-made metal as the metal used to make his sword, is split in half. The same goes for aircraft that fly after that.
I was momentarily surprised by the sharpness of the sword.
The flying vehicles that filled the sky proved that Machina’s touch had reached this place as well.
“I’ll handle this.”
And then, the mummy comes forward.
“Why, those fools who think they are in a safe place have their heads destroyed when they see things they shouldn’t see, right?”
“…Oh, yes, that’s right.”
I wanted to take out the sword and cut it, but testing the sharpness of the sword here was too low. And, you can swat away a fly, but it’s better for Mira to step forward than for you.
That’s right, she also kills all those who control this.
“Try crying and saying, ‘Meee~.'”
And- finally.
The shape of the sheep Mira was riding began to change into something strange.
“…”
“Arash, I think this is too much treatment.”
Adramelech, and Arash.
Currently, Arash is carrying out a secret mission under Clark’s [Order].
Arash alone and no one else.
To be exact, he is alone, but with a bow, and Adramelech, who is flapping her wings in a bastard-like form like her creator, Ilias.
Zetes, Callias.
Sons of Boreas.
When my bow was shattered while fighting those two, that was when I thought it would end.
-You must not give up, warrior, I will be with you!!
She became her own bow and was doing this together at the same time.
From then on, it looks like this when it moves comfortably and when it moves as his bow, and I think it’s cute in its own way. It’s like seeing a cute child just like Ilias, the creation goddess, next to Clark.
And she doesn’t like Clark that much.
Same goes for Clark.
Of course I know.
“Marcus, how did he end up?”
“…Do you want to know?”
“Is it difficult to say?”
Is it difficult to tell her too? Adramelech said, naturally shaking his head.
“…His bloodline is not of this world. At the same time, even if he hates us all, we can’t complain about it, and he still has his justification.”
“…”
“You know that although he looks like a human and has the form of a human, his essence is completely different, right?”
“Of course.”
What would it be like to be in a state of mind that openly says, “I’m not human?” Arash Kamanga. Because I have good eyes, I can not only vaguely recognize a person’s inner thoughts and mental state, but also a completely different mental state from that of other humans.
In particular, the sister next to him, Gummy, and Yongin have a mental system that is unimaginable.
Among them, Clark was the only one who could tell that his mind was in a complicated situation.
“…We caused his father’s death. And, the result… As you can see, is this.”
To be honest, I’m still whining to the point where I think it’s retaliation for that.
Of course, to be precise, Arash said that it is faster and more convenient to act alone.
He is an archer, and naturally he is good at acting alone.
Experience of aiming for the enemy’s head, acting alone, and completing tasks through missions. It was none other than Arash’s own claim.
-It’s easier to act alone. If not, I will stand as your guard.
-It’s a coincidence, I don’t really need an escort right now either. So, how about we do what we can separately now?
-It’s good.
He wasn’t offended by that, and accepted Arash’s argument and coolly let him act separately.
-Then, please find Ares’ children.
And what was requested was the child of Ares.
A woman named Sylvia.
And starting with Sylvia’s whereabouts, where are her children? And we must start by finding the whereabouts of those children. If the gods themselves wanted to destroy that existence, there must have been a good reason.
Ask Adramelech.
“Why would the gods want to destroy Ares’ child, Adramelech?”
“…There is only one reason for the gods to do that. When their rule is shaken and it seems like they are about to be destroyed. Not only I, but also my sisters, to take advantage of the previous background of [Solias], All of Solias Instead of erasing it, the monster wearing his shell did what he was told to do. If he was going to eliminate it, he would have done the work of wiping out all the denominations, names, and existences a long time ago. And… That is the death of the gods.”
“It’s being forgotten.”
“Yes, that’s right. And, blasphemously, I didn’t even recognize my Creator.”
And Adramelech answers that with a depressed look. In fact, Clark and Adramelech are already ignoring each other.
But there is something different about saying that.
…
Of course, Arash can’t say anything about that.
But-
“Clarke is more rational than you think.”
“I know that.”
“…Yes, if it wasn’t rational, it would have slaughtered us a long time ago. Especially that monster behind it…”
Are you talking about Mira?
After all, her very existence is the most alien.
Yet, he is devoted to Clark and is like a living disaster that moves for Clark. She was a threat to her Clark even before she was called by her name, but now she is intentionally excluded every time the Demon Sultan puts her Clark through her trials.
That’s how strong she was, and that’s why she’s the closest thing to a demon sultan.
If she’s around Clark, she’ll try to exclude him somehow.
But looking at what I’ve seen lately, mummies,
No-
Shubniguras.
She is becoming more fearful of Clark than she is, and he is becoming more powerful.
“…He must really hate us.”
If one day that hatred is unleashed on them, will they be able to resist it? There was only one thing Arash could say as he looked at Adramelech, who was mocking himself with those eyes.
We need to talk about it sooner rather than later.
“We will have to talk at some point. In the end, whether we like it or not, Ilias will follow him around and we will see him over and over again. Isn’t that right?”
Arash continued to point out to Adramelech, who nodded.
“Clarke doesn’t want an apology.”
“Then?”
“…At least, it would be better to let him talk about it.”
It would be something Arash himself could never even imagine. Himself, and the women who pushed him to that situation, and-
Why Ilias was forgiven, and why the three people who followed Ilias could not forgive the Archangels.
And it’s probably…
“Shh.”
And then, Arash stops.
Sylvia, the cliff she fell from. And a presence felt at the river below the cliff.
And-
On that cliff below the canyon –
Something jumps out.
White hair.
Long, waist-length hair.
The ears, tail, and fur of the animal.
And…
An appearance that resembles a mixture of the appearance of a human woman and that of a wolf.
And-
The woman came up from under the cliff and-
At the same time, look in the direction where Arash is.
“…I know you’re there. God’s lackey-“
And, without hesitation, Arash activated the [Talisman] Given to him by Clark.
-If you feel it is dangerous, use it immediately.
And he held Adramelech’s hand, and Adramelech also clung to Arash.
And-
The wolf woman immediately rushed to the spot where Arash was, and before the huge mouth swallowed Arash, Arash warped on the spot, and the woman who noticed it spoke in shock.
“…You’re the suspect, too. Are the things that came to you this time completely different?”
And we must inform the [Children] Who will be waiting at the bottom of the cliff and below.
…
That I have to leave here.
“…It doesn’t matter. You guys should live a life that has nothing to do with the gods. So…”
Eastern Frontier / Outskirts of the Great Forest
“Is that even possible now?!”
“…It was annihilated. All the troops that entered the castle were burned, and their bodies were not even found…”
Push!!
My head is crushed.
The commander, unable to overcome his anger, crushed the messenger’s head.
Guardian warrior, 1st rank.
Fabian.
And, unable to overcome her anger, she looks at the crushed corpse of the messenger and spits out a person’s name.
“Clarke, Dawn Bringer…!!! That damn brat is worse than Marcus!!!”
I remember the humiliation that once occurred.
Marcus Dunn Bringer.
A memory of appearing alone towards the elves who were demonstrating their military force in Magia and storming in with a man wearing a wolf mask holding an axe.
All of the first-tier warriors knelt down, and the three first-tier warriors who had attacked with enthusiasm were reduced to burnt ashes by his magic.
-Don’t do anything useless. Damn you Canf bastards.
He had to experience humiliation due to overwhelming power and magic, and no one could break his magic, and all the legitimate [Events] Of the descendants of the great World Tree, the true owner of the continent, were burned, and they had to kneel before him. Did.
To survive.
They are the Jangsaeng species,
Because they are a short-lived species that will die out.
If they wait, their era will come someday…
“Hello, good and strong morning. As for me, I am Gold Sun-“
“…!!!”
And-
Appearing in front of them was bronze-colored skin, perhaps closer to black, blonde hair, and golden eyes.
A look that will remind you of Marcus.
However, the atmosphere is clearly different from Marcus.
And…
“You you!!?”
“Hello, Canf. We’re in the old town, right? And, we’re here to kick you guys.”
“…A wizard or something comes in front of a warrior-“
Kaaaaang!!!
And before he could finish speaking, Kikimora, the fairy swordsman behind him, took out his sword and cut Fabian’s rapier in two. Belonging to the first rank, she is an elite warrior. But, to cut her sword in two at once.
“Why, do you find it strange that a wizard suddenly came knocking on the front door and came in, causing such a mess?”
And-
Around her, the tent is pulled down.
It was clearly a normal barracks just a moment ago, but what is this-
“Clarke, there are more barracks and colonies around here.”
“…Is it really possible to do such crazy things? What on earth are you doing, Clark?”
“Imagine doing something like this dozens of times a day. This is how much I keep following this damn guy and marking him.”
Behind him is a recently mutated Ogre, and the leader of the Phrygian Trojan Knights, Hector Scherwitz.
And…
“You, you – Carnesia Elvenguard… This betrayal…”
Grrrr!!!
Fabian, before she could even finish her sentence, Clark snapped her hand away and Fabian was instantly oxidized by Clark’s solar flame, literally canceling out all the magical resistance items she had. .
The good thing about her is that it is common for people to die by being burned to death or cut by swords or halberds.
Numerous star spawns follow behind them, and the sight of them preying, the sight of their brains being sucked, being caught in a spider web, being bitten and eaten by spider-shaped monsters, and the spiders gradually changing their form and turning into human form. There were even signs showing,
The Ogre woman standing next to him opened her mouth.
Tio Grancia,
He still looks at me and looks at the surroundings I burned with a rotten expression.
If I were to use it, I would use magic to break down the enemy’s guard and use solar flame.
“…You damned deceiver.”
-Are you deceiving me? Have you been deceiving me this whole time?! Even though you can use such strong power, are you- deceiving me?!!!
“Is that possible?”
“Ha, really. It’s funny how I was so arrogant about pushing a guy who was hiding such power.”
Why are you feeling so embarrassed about that?
The answer to a fight isn’t just head-on confrontation.
And in that sense, Tio treated me wonderfully.
I remember it and praise it.
“You fought me well, toyed with me well, and endured well in your own way. Moreover, you were able to not have a single casualty among our party members, which is why you retired Liz.”
It seems as if the voices of the past, the rough voice, and the delicate voice of the present are heard overlapping in surround.
At least I didn’t cheat.
I did my best to protect them as much as I could.
I don’t know if it was a hero party, it would have been worth at least one fuse, but these bastards didn’t even add that.
“As I always said, I just didn’t want my friends to die, and I only used magic to help them live and return to their families. No one would get hurt by these scumbags, so I just unleashed my power. .”
Basically noise blocking.
And, neutralize boundary magic.
Cancellation of spirit summoning.
Remove summons.
In words, it was virtually the same as death, so I cut off the summons’ link before they could convey useless information, and summoned the star spawn. Imprint that shape on those who haven’t yet formed, so that they can use that shape again.
Why are you doing this?
It was simple.
I need my troops that I can use in any situation.
At other times, I don’t know, when I shouldn’t kill them, or because I have a contract not to kill them, or when it’s difficult to subdue them on my own, they’ll die if I hit them, so I can subdue them, eat their minds, and knock them out, star beings, star seeds. , Star spawns are needed.
That’s why they tied up all the elves who were going to be killed anyway and fed them-
There are still things behind me waiting for their turn.
The things that had taken shape were increasingly coming under me, into my shadow, and filling it – Hector, watching the process, spoke to me with eyes that saw terrible things.
“…I’d like to ask you a question in advance, but I don’t think you’d ever do this to a human…”
“You’re saying something stupid, but you die like this anyway, whether your body burns, or you die from being stabbed with a spear, what does it matter? Death is equal.”
“It’s a question of human dignity.”
“It’s dignity… I really think that a nobleman who was boiled in a stew and then came back to life is worthy of such consideration.”
“That’s why it is like that.”
…
Tsk.
Yes, I don’t want to die like that, and I don’t want other people to die like food, being eaten like food. If that’s the case, there’s no reason for me not to listen.
“…Ah, yes. Well, that’s fine. I wouldn’t do something like this unless I did something really stupid.”
Hector looks at me with scary eyes and speaks.
Yes, Hector said so, so I listen. He said that because he died like that, others should not die like that too. You wouldn’t know it if someone else had said it, but since a man who died and came back to life like that said it, it’s only right to listen.
Contractually, you’re following me, but that’s how the human heart is.
“What I have to do is-“
“It’s okay. You don’t have to write it in the contract, and I just listened to you because I [Asked] You not to do that. But, these damn bastards are the ones I really wanted to get rid of. Show them that kind of mercy-“
“Personally, I have torture against elves, and if you’re willing to hear about it, I’m willing to share it, no matter what it takes in return.”
…
Well, too.
“Are you saying you’re a Frisian knight?”
“These are the guys who have been fighting for over 100 years. If we can get rid of these damned things… In the first place, the position of Margrave of the East cannot be monopolized only by the Duke of Pantalone!”
“Ah-“
So, this is a position that is held by the person who fights the best and is the best at beating the crap out of people. Well, if you look at the state of the troops, they are full of equipment developed solely to defeat the Canfs.
It’s a ballista capable of rapid fire used for anti-aircraft purposes…
It is filled with equipment from Teiva that tames and leads the hippogriff, a divine beast that is a hybrid between a horse and a griffon, and keeps the elves in check, and even neutralizes the elf spirits.
He could tell that he wanted to take that position in Scherwitz, and Hector also had no good feelings about the Canfs.
And now, I look at Carnesia, who is leading me down the forest path.
“Would you like to head to the next target?”
And I shook my head.
Carnesia’s condition didn’t look too bad, and although she would deny it, there was no need for her to go any deeper here.
“No, let’s stop here.Ihot.“
“Yes, master.”
And Ihot appears from the shadows. I always want to touch that long, fluffy hair.
But apart from that, Ihot was waiting for my call, and I said to Ihot as I looked at this burned forest.
“Build a labyrinth here. Trap everything that appears above this space, devour them, and increase your number.”
“Can I stretch it as hard as I can?”
“If it’s possible… And if it’s too much, I’ll deal with it. You know what I mean?”
“It’s rather an honor.”
…
Shit. It’s like this.
Dying by my hands is an honor and joy.
What is this?
And it means not advancing.
And Carnesia, who realized that she was talking about her own condition, looked at me and said.
“Is it because of me, Clark?”
“That can’t be right. Tio Gransha, do you think there is any reason to march further here?”
“If you advance, you will receive a strong counterattack from the enemy. Break the enemy’s brunt and form a defensive line until reinforcements arrive. Then, form a defensive line, take time, and force the enemy to bleed. The tactic you used against the monsters. “I will make this more perfect in my own way. So for now, follow my instructions. You too, Carnesia.”
“I still have to advance further-“
“Military orders are absolute on the battlefield, Carnesia. There is no need to advance any further. Here, I have burned more than tens of thousands of items.”
“…”
It’s just a matter of defeating Ye Feng, and there are 10,000 more troops behind him, but of course anything more than this becomes quite troublesome.
“A surprise attack is not the answer to forcing the enemy to bleed.”
Now that they’ve been hit like this, they’ll come in by surprise somehow.
What..
If you come, you will fall into the trap of the existence of stars and die.
“And, would you like to talk to me?”
She seemed anxious for some reason, so I thought now was the right time.
