Chapter 686 – 686. Disaster Prologue (7)
“What… ?”
Marius’ sudden confession was enough to embarrass Erin.
Marius, who was directing her straight gaze and emotions toward Erin, who asked again with an expression as if he had heard it wrong, spoke again.
“Did you not hear? I said I love you.”
“…”
The favor Marius was sending was genuine.
At least, the magical power of the divine beast with the ability to read other people’s emotions said that it was the truth.
It made me feel so bad.
The emotions he sends are so pure, upright, and passionate that it makes me feel bad.
If Marius was an ordinary human, he would have been grateful to have such a heart towards him and would have been in trouble because he did not know how to refuse, but he is a wicked man who enjoys playing with his life by slaughtering countless humans and turning them into undead.
It is even more repulsive and disgusting that such an evil person has feelings of pure love for himself.
“Something like you. I do not like it!”
“Kuk-kuk. It doesn’t matter.”
Marius laughed at Erin, not caring at all.
Erin’s reaction to her own feelings was really good.
Even if her self doesn’t love her, that doesn’t make her self a reason why she shouldn’t love her.
It was a very theoretical discussion, but Erin was horrified because it was Marius who sent that ardent feeling.
Erin rushed at Marius, giving herself over to her raging emotions once more.
“Ah… !”
But she soon sat down on her knees on the floor, as if her own legs were holding her back, not listening to her.
Finally, Erin reached her limit.
Not a crowd
Not the usual fox fire, but the flame of purification made up of high purity magical power wrapped around the body and running around to deal with the recalcitrant Death Knights, so it is natural that the mental strength and magic power consumed several times more than usual are rapidly depleted. Do.
“No… Of course now… !”
In front of her eyes, the culprit that caused this disaster is still there, but she can’t deal with this culprit.
‘Yet… It’s only been 5 minutes… ! A little bit… ! Little bit more… !’
While the three of them were enjoying a date after a pleasant dinner with Eunhyeon and Eleanor, it took less than 10 minutes from the moment when the protective barrier was lifted until now.
In that time, for 5 minutes, while maintaining the flame of purification, Erin was busy dealing with the Death Knights, and the results finally came.
Gritting her teeth, she glared at Marius, trying to somehow raise her body, but her body wouldn’t listen to her.
Her body joints and muscles creaked and screamed in pain, perhaps because of the recoil from her violent movements, as well as the accumulated damage and fatigue from her repeated battles with the undead.
Erin managed to get up as her moan, expressing her pain, managed to force what was about to jump out of her mouth back into her body.
“Haha! Great! Really beautiful! What a lovely woman you are!”
Marius admired Erin as she struggled to raise her body.
Even though her body and mind were in a precarious situation, as if she would collapse at any moment, her eyes that raised her body were still full of hostility.
Those eyes, her face, the feeling of intimidation radiating from her slender body made Marius’ heart beat faster and more affectionately.
“Noisy!”
Erin forced her body to move and brandished her rapier at Marius.
It was a mediocre swordsmanship that did not use leg strength and sophisticated swordsmanship that gave it overwhelming speed, but it was threatening enough to target Marius, who was unfamiliar with the field of physical use.
“Kuk-kuk.”
However, Marius was not at all taken aback when he saw Erinn’s blade aimed precisely at his vital point, the pit of the stomach.
He, who was unfamiliar with her swordsmanship, noticed Erin’s swordsmanship only after her attack was close enough to be confirmed.
‘Also…’
Again
The area around Marius’ abdomen, where Levantein should have penetrated, turned into a black mist and passed Erinn’s blade as it was.
His ability to mist parts of her body made Erinn’s attack futile again.
When Marius again distanced himself from Erin, Erin pursued him again, wielding an impervious attack, and Marius fled again, and the fugitive and the tagger continued their vicious tag.
“Ugh… !”
The fatigue of the body has already exceeded the limit.
Still, he was confident in his stamina and mental strength due to long training, but as expected, the consumption in this state was not very efficient.
“I’d love to have more fun with you, but I’ll defer that opportunity to another time.”
Marius said goodbye to Erin with a sincere look on his face.
“Noisy… I’m sorry… !”
Erin, who had reached her limit due to accumulated fatigue, desperately tried to move her body, but her already cracked voice was pitiful, as if it showed the exhaustion.
“Now that I met you, this moment, I am very grateful. So, I will give you a present too.”
Marius stretched out his hand into the air.
In the sky, a thick dark cloud of death condensed like a huge dark cloud began to take shape.
[Summon the Commander]
[Giant Skeleton]
“What else… !”
Erin knew right away that Marius was plotting something again, but perhaps because her stamina was exhausted and she was sitting down, she could only helplessly watch Marius’ actions.
“Oh my god…”
Soon after, Erin was horrified to see a huge skull appearing in front of her eyes.
An upper torso figure formed from a human skull and bones.
What Marius created by condensing his morale was the skeleton’s upper body.
It was not just a skeleton, but a giant skeleton the size of which easily leaped over the walls of this city, Erenium.
However, the reason Erin was astonished was not because it was so huge that it crossed the castle wall and turned its back to the moonlight.
Each of the things that make up the bones of that gigantic skeleton are fraudulent spirits extracted from the souls of the dead who were once human.
“How much…”
How many hundred? How many thousands? No. More than a few thousand.
The collection of terrible auras he obtained after slaughtering more humans is like a mark proving the numerous evil deeds he has committed so far.
Although Erin had no knowledge of her necromantic arts, her psychic senses clearly conveyed the screams of tens of thousands of people inherent in that spirit.
“Nice… Ugh!”
Erin clenched her teeth and struggled to stand up.
Her driving force that drives her now is her anger towards Marius.
Rather than hatred for expressing one-sided affection for him like a madman, he felt intense anger at Marius for taking the lives of countless people and playing with them using the vicious power of necromancy.
“As much as you… !”
Come to think of it, Erin didn’t like a man named Marius from the beginning to the end.
Everything about him, including his confession of love for himself as a married woman, his power of necromancy, and his way of thinking make me sick.
“Uh… ?”
Soon, the other adventurers who were in a hurry to deal with the undead in front of them also noticed something huge in the sky.
It’s such a strange situation that it’s even more strange not to pay attention to the thing that casts a huge shadow that covers even the bright moonlight.
“That…”
“What. That…”
The adventurers, who finally noticed something huge with their backs against the moonlight shining on them, made stunned faces.
“… Skeleton?”
For adventurers who had never met such a gigantic human bone or even a monster in their lives, it seemed that they were facing a fantasy beyond common sense.
The first emotion the adventurers felt was not fear.
When faced with something at a level that is incomprehensible even with their common sense and logic, people are desperate to figure out what that something is first.
And when you realize what it is, the horror comes.
“Oh my god… !”
“I-I will run away!”
Frightened adventurers all at once started running away from the undead with terrified expressions.
They were engaged in battle with desperate resistance because they saw the realistic possibility that they would be able to fight and survive somehow with all their strength.
However, the moment they noticed the appearance of the giant skeleton looking down at them with their backs to the moonlight, the adventurers were certain of their future that they would never be able to win.
Erin couldn’t blame the adventurers who started running wildly.
She helped at most, but the difference between fear and strength they had to deal with was too clear to blame them for giving up and running away.
As one adventurer tried to escape, she fell to the ground and looked at Erin, who was glaring at Marius, who was sitting on the palm of a giant skeleton.
The adventurer was not a man without a conscience, to the extent that she pretended not to see Erin, who had saved herself while getting rid of her overwhelming existence as Death Nitra.
“Come on, get up!”
“I can’t run away with that!”
Erin refused the help of an adventurer who came to her aid.
The sight of Erin struggling to get herself up with the Levante in her bottom for support was already exhausting and pitiful.
The adventurer couldn’t understand what on earth he could do against that gigantic undead in that state.
In the end, the adventurer left, leaving Erin for refusing her help.
“Ku-k-k-k! Everyone was busy with their own lives, so I threw them out.”
Atop the giant skeleton’s hand, Marius looked down at Erin, who was left alone, and sneered.
“Now that I am left alone, what am I going to do?”
“I will fight. And you will win I will win and make you punish!”
Seeing Erin struggling to point her sword at her exhausted body, Marius didn’t answer, just smiled.
His mental head with a happy expression on his face as if he had received a passionate confession he had so longed for is also not normal.
“Okay. That’s it.”
Even in an unreasonable situation and facing an unreasonable opponent, he never backs down.
The noble woman’s spirit really kept reminding him of Ness and made Marius’ heart beat.
The more Erin stood up with such indomitable will, the more Marius fell for Erin.
“Please don’t let me down.”
Marius wished.
May Erin not show her ugly side, running away at the cost of her own life like the other adventurers of hers.
As she is, may she fight against herself, face her death, take her soul, and make her her own eternal bride.
To make that wish come true, the giant skeleton’s fist, which moves under Marius’ command, is lifted high in order to crush Erin, who has no mate.
The moment the terrifying mass of violence was about to descend on the ground and Erinn, pure white feathers flew down from the sky.
At the same time, a flash of light that cut through the air rushed in at high speed and pierced the giant skeleton’s raised arm.
[Bryunak spearmanship]
[Skin Piercing]
Kwaaang!
“Kuh!?”
At the sudden attack, the Giant Skeleton’s upper body fell sideways, unable to withstand the momentary shock.
Marius turned his head towards the direction the attack came from, but he couldn’t see the attacker.
‘… An interception?’
It means that the interception was carried out at a long distance unrecognizable with the naked eye.
And soon the second variable fell from the sky.
[Eleanor River God]
[Chief Angel Seraphim]
“This…”
Looking at the thousands of white feathers falling from the sky, Erin also belatedly figured out her situation.
The moment the feather touches her body, the fatigue and damage accumulated in her body completely disappears, and the exhausted magic power is restored and activates her body.
A miracle that restores the condition to the best condition in an instant.
Erin had experienced this miracle before, so she understood her situation more quickly than Marius.
‘It’s Hyun and Eleanor-sama!’
Ten minutes after the barrier was lifted and the incident occurred.
Finally, the couple got into action.
