Chapter 422 – 422. Nosferad (3)
A strong god is to manifest the will of a god here in the underworld through one’s own body.
In another sense, it means that God accepts and fulfills the wish that a priest prayed for.
The result was a pair of large wings sprouting from Eleanor’s back.
Each of the pure white feathers falling from its wings contained a high-quality divinity.
“This…”
“Body… ?”
The knights and magicians who encountered the divinity flowing from the feathers falling from the sky encountered a miracle at this moment.
He felt that his body, which had been unable to get out of the swamp of death and coughed up blood due to the disease that filled the territory, was rapidly recovering.
“It’s a miracle…”
On the contrary, how else to describe this situation, where the body is more refreshed than before the cleanup operation, other than a miracle?
Eleanor’s longing for the goddess Vesta, whom she serves, is to save many people who are struggling on the threshold of her death.
It is a completely different kind of prayer from Agnes, who longed to get stronger and eliminate many enemies.
And the angel’s wings made with that prayer are a miracle that expresses Eleanor’s heart to save many people.
“You can do it.”
A knight experienced this miracle and murmured.
The morale of the allies was restored, and they stood up holding the weapons they had dropped one by one.
It is a ray of hope that the plague spreads and vomits blood and begins to dwell in their eyes stained with despair full of fear of death.
Hope arises in the car that succumbed to a disease that was like an invisible enemy that could not be defeated even with swords and magic.
As Eleanor healed the bodies of her people, she also healed her mind, which had been tinged with her despair.
“Let’s do it!”
Confidence began to rise in the hearts of those who had been unable to helplessly resist the approaching death and shuddered with fear, and they stood up one by one.
After staring at them once, Eleanor shifted her gaze to her Eira and her Cha Hanseong, who were staring blankly at herself.
“Two people.”
“Yes yes!”
Ayra was startled and came to her senses and answered Eleanor’s call.
Then Eleanor looked at her Erin.
“And Erin.”
“Yes!”
“Watch me.”
“All right!”
A difficult yet simple command.
Erin replied briskly, staring at the vampires around her and aiming her rapier.
Following her and nodding her head, Ineira and Cha Han-seong also begin to fulfill their duties by holding their own weapons.
Eleanor moved her angel wings sprouting from her own back.
Each time she flapped her wings, she admired the pure white feathers that fluttered in the air with a weak whirlwind.
‘… Awesome.’
The angel’s wings, which had been a part of her own body from the beginning, moving at her own will, were light and warm.
In fact, it was close to a gamble that she tried the Kangshin (降神), which she had first succeeded at, at this moment.
She had prayed several times and asked Vesta for help, but Eleanor herself was bewildered that the strong god, which she had never succeeded in, had succeeded only now, but she did not for some reason think that she would fail. Was
-Don’t be too pressured. Because if you are, you will surely succeed.
It was because Eun-hyeon, who had encouraged her with a smile, assured her that she would succeed.
It must have been that Eunhyeon and Belldandy had a hand in something.
“Eww…”
But Eleanor, contrary to her reversed circumstances, felt extremely disenchanted.
The strong god, who sucked all the divinity in her body and maintained its state, was consuming as much divine power as the tremendous effect, so it was natural in a way.
It was impossible even for Agnes to maintain the golden lion created by this spirit god for a long time.
She has just been recognized by Vesta as her saint and has achieved her spirituality, which in itself is an achievement worthy of praise.
“It doesn’t last long.”
The time she can maintain this strong body is not that long.
In other words, it means that the time to neutralize Nosferad’s diseases and gain equality or superiority through physical combat is not that long.
The moment Eleanor’s powers end leads to the defeat of the Knights of Artia and the victory of the vampires, so she must deal with Nosferad in the air as quickly as possible to win this fight.
“All right!”
Erin, who used a rapier wrapped in foxfire to pierce the necks of the charging vampires and cut them down, was busy clearing the vampires in front like a runaway racehorse.
Eleanor flew on the straight path that her Erin had arranged, and chased after her Erin.
‘Awesome! Light body! I’m overflowing with energy!’
The Angel’s Wings, which Eleanor strengthened, not only heal her wounds, but also improve her overall physical abilities.
Her vampires couldn’t stop Erin from wearing the buff around her body.
Erin faithfully fulfilled her role as her ‘guarding Eleanor.’
It wasn’t enough to restore her to her best condition, and Erin, aware of her own lighter body condition, dealt with all the vampires around her.
Taking one look at her Erin, escorting herself and dealing with her vampires, Eleanor muttered, looking in the direction of her Lyod.
“… I beg you. Liod.”
◆ ◆ ◆
As soon as the pure white feathers falling from the sky approached, the lumps of death that had been accumulating in his body were removed cleanly, and Simon, who experienced the miracle of raising his body condition to the highest level, had a surprised look on his face.
“This…”
Kyaaaaagh!
The roar of the ancient beast filled with anger shook the air, and Simon looked up again to the sky.
Nosferard, who had been expressing his anger toward Simon, who had chanted high-order magic before, was not staring at Simon.
Nosferard’s expression as he looked at someone who had turned it into a sanctuary by releasing a divine aura that neutralized all of his abilities was as if he were looking at his nemesis he had never met in his entire life.
There was no way that he would not hate the mastermind who made his plan, which was supposed to make all the humans in this place become soldiers, in an instant by creating an overwhelmingly advantageous situation.
Moving his gaze along the direction Nosferard was looking at, Simon saw an angel with pure white wings floating in the sky and made a surprised expression.
“… Angel?”
“You succeeded.”
Riod slowly drew out his sword and stared at Eleanor, who was flapping her angel wings.
Originally, he was planning to order a retreat right from this spot, defeat the troops that had started to be infected with the disease, and buy time until Eleanor activated the spirit.
There was no assumption that Eleanor might fail.
It was because Eun-hyeon definitely guaranteed it.
Eleanor is the ‘victory card’ sent by Eun-hyeon, keeping in mind the possible engagement with Nosferad, the king of vampires, in this fight.
That’s why, from the start, I didn’t consider the possibility that I would fail at all.
“Whoa…”
Fortunately, Eleanor noticed the appearance of Nosferad first and hurriedly activated the Spirit, so many knights and wizards were able to prevent death from disease.
Simon looked at Leod and asked.
“… Did you know from the beginning that Eleanor Armitas would be able to stand up to that Witchbeast in this fight?”
“I wasn’t sure. But I believed that he would overcome this hopeless situation.”
Even Riod did not expect that Eleanor would spread her pure white wings to purify the entire area and heal the wounds of many people.
The divine energy flowing from Eleanor’s body, now floating in the sky, is similar to Agies’ spirit when he summoned the golden lion.
After all, she had risen to the same level as Agies, Lyod guessed.
“… How could you believe that?”
It was incomprehensible to Simon.
Is it possible to believe such a thing without certainty?
However, it was possible enough for Riod.
“Because she is the person Eunhyeon sent. She just trusted Eun-hyeon, who made that judgment.”
“… That man is really great.”
What kind of man is the best knight in the kingdom and one of the continent’s six heroes showing such unconditional trust?
Simon had never talked to Eun-hyeon directly, and he had never met him face-to-face.
But stories about him have been heard in many places.
There are so many words that describe him.
Serpent of Mercury.
Witch man.
Daryl’s son-in-law to the ducal family.
Teacher of Erin, a supernova gold-tier adventurer.
Moreover, as he knows, a mysterious man who created living magic with an ego in the form of an artificial spirit for Alvin, who had fallen into a warlock.
“He is a man worth it.”
He knows how to understand and utilize his own value, which is assessed externally, but is not at all interested in raising that value.
However, all the heroes, including his wife Illyana, as well as Riod, Gerard, Agnes, and Alice, wish him happiness.
“I have to hurry more than that. He has made the best of the situation, so now we have to move.”
“… Yes.”
Lyod, who knew Agnes’ spirit god, knew very well that the ability of the spirit god wouldn’t last for long.
Of course, the effect of Eleanor’s angel’s wings was overwhelming enough to be called a miracle, but the burden on her would not be small.
The miracle of one genius that unfolds now is never forever.
It is an unmistakable fact that the war situation is equal or that one side has an advantage.
Simon also agreed that he had to use this momentum to defeat the giant bat beast in front of him.
“How can I do it?”
“Then I have a favor to ask of you.”
Simon, who listened to Leod’s explanation, hardened his impression.
“Tiring… It’s an order.”
“If you’re having a hard time, find another way…”
“If you’ve been asking for such a favor, it must mean that the witch had the ability to carry out the method effortlessly.”
“…”
Riod didn’t answer, but he didn’t deny it.
Externally, he accepted the evaluation that he was one step behind Illyana, but even Simon, who reached his limit in old age, still had a sense of pride.
There were hundreds of wizards that Simon had spent a lot of time raising.
No matter how many wizards like the Knights of Krasir were expelled as the kingdom’s corruption was exposed, his own Magus Wizards are his pride that he has devoted his whole life to.
It is undeniable that if it is individual to individual, that Illyana will fall behind.
However, he was convinced that he had a number of military powers, the Magus Court Magicians, who followed him, and if they were combined, an individual named Illyana would be able to catch up.
“Let’s try.”
Simon conveyed his will to Riod with a firm face.
I had a strong conviction that this moment was the moment to confirm the results of the hard work I had devoted my whole life to.
Illyana belongs to the peak as a mage, and even though she is a mage of the same high rank, she is Simon’s target and an object of admiration.
Age, social status, and honor are not necessary.
Simon is also another mage, and what exists between Illyana and Simon is pure mage achievement.
That’s why he had respect and longing for Illyana, who achieved higher achievements than he did.
So her idea was that if she alone couldn’t catch up, then raise her majority to catch up with her.
That is also his own feat, and the birth of the Magus Wizards is his pride in his 20 years of life.
He wondered if he and the 200 wizards he raised would be able to catch up with Illyana.
I can not know.
Will her achievements, which she has devoted her whole life as a wizard, catch up with the witches?
I want to check it out
“All right.”
Riod, confirming Simon’s strong will, nodded his head.
