The place that unfolded after being absorbed into the mural was a fiery land overflowing with flames.
What is unique is that the flames that dye the earth red are fluttering in the sky, not on the ground.
A strange place where a total of thirty fireballs gathered in a circle in the air.
‘Did you say that 15 times was the passing standard?’
At that time, Daesung was reflecting on Giriak’s words to himself.
The air distorted…
and then clanged.
A steel golem leapt out, viciously squeezing through the rumbling air.
It looked as if the remnants of iron armor had been pieced together like rags.
No matter how big a golem is, it is only a dwarf in front of a Titan.
However, the golem created by the trials of the waves was different.
Daeseong, who took on Ugorick’s body, and the golem in the ordeal were at the same eye level as each other.
“It’s safe to say that he’s just a Titan wearing armor.”
The moment Daesung muttered incoherently.
Qua-ang!
Without any preliminary movement, the armor golem rushed to the ground.
Spider-web-like cracks spread across the ground, and wind pressure from the toes pushed back the flames in all directions.
‘Compared to its size, it moves quickly.’
It has a height comparable to that of a Titan, yet its speed is as fast as a bullet.
It must be a golem that deviates from common sense and standards created by trials.
bang-!
Without any time to escape, the golem’s large body dug into Daesung’s abdomen.
Daesung’s new model fell backwards as if it had collided with a dump truck.
Soon, the golem that had climbed on top of his body mercilessly struck down its fist, as big and blunt as a mountain peak.
A repeated blow so vicious that the ground in contact with Daesung’s back caved in!
However, Daesung was not in a state where he could feel pain.
Even though his face was sunken and his side and clavicle were crushed, he didn’t care.
He fought back as he was hit. As many times as he was hit, he pounded his fist into every part of the golem’s body.
However, the outer layer of hard armor, tangled like a skein of thread, simply and completely blocked Daesung’s fists.
Rather, the counterattack seemed to have touched Yeokrin, and the golem went wild, swinging its arms down like hammers.
Kwasik-! bang-! bang-!
Although he could not feel the pain, Daesung felt his face being crushed.
If you keep getting hit like this, your undead body won’t be able to withstand it.
He clenched his right hand.
At the same time, the armor golem slowly raised its fist to deliver the final blow.
Kwasik-!
Suddenly, a dark blue blade pierced the armor golem’s chest.
“Phew!”
Black blood burst out from between the armor golem’s helmet, which had a vital point pierced.
Soon Daesung pushed the head of the silent armor golem back.
Sereung-.
The body of the armor golem was pushed up to the edge of the sword body and then crashed to the side! It fell down with a sound.
Daesung stood up, stabbing the long sword in his hand into the ground.
‘I didn’t know I’d be using this already.’
The identity of the long sword that suddenly appears is the king of all diseases.
In order to pass the ordeal perfectly, I gave it to him through his original body immediately after < Death's Companion > was released yesterday.
I was concerned that it could only be used with the original body, but fortunately that didn’t seem to be the case.
Good luck!
At this time, one of the thirty flames surrounding the circle was extinguished.
Daesung nodded, looking at the remaining twenty-nine flames.
‘Is this what it meant that the passing standard was 15 times?’
Defeat the monsters that appear from the distorted sky 14 more times.
It was the so-called Wave.
‘I was so determined to pass the ordeal perfectly that I foolishly relaxed.’
Daesung looked down at his body covered in terrible wounds.
In this situation, I cannot guarantee whether I will be able to overcome the remaining 14 rounds.
It’s not a matter of whether you feel pain or not, your limbs will collapse.
It is a result of negligence.
Daesung painfully reflected on his mistakes and muttered to himself.
“I think I should rest.”
As soon as those words came out, the distorted air spit out an enemy.
Cheolgruguk-. Cheolgruguk-.
It was the same armor golem, but this time there were two instead of one.
Naturally, Daesung did not expect that the ordeal would allow him to rest or anything.
However, he didn’t care and sat down on the floor and shoved his hand into the slightly cracked chest.
Eventually, a necklace the size of a dot was placed in the hand that was pulled out of the skin.
A token of the king of the continent.
Daesung’s lips came closer to the necklace, as if sending a communication through a walkie-talkie.
“come out.”
Grumble-!
And the next moment, the necklace turned into flames and soon the goddess ‘Rune Quiella’ appeared.
[You called… gasp!]
Rune Quela covered her mouth for a moment and was shocked when she saw Daesung become a Titan.
Originally, it was Rune Quela, which was several times the size of the Great Castle, but now the height of its head was the same.
[Uh, since when did your species change to Titan…?]
“Stop making me feel weak and look behind me. “What do you see?”
Rune Quella cleared her throat sheepishly and looked toward the rear again.
She answered in a calm tone, as if she had seen the clouds passing by.
[You see two golems.]
“Go and kill them.”
[Ugh, if that’s an order…]
Even though he was reluctant, it was Rune Quiella who eventually moved.
When she powerfully spewed fire from her mouth, the two golems cowered as if they would not be defeated and broke through the flames.
Meanwhile, Daesung’s body, which had been torn and crushed in various places, was recovering quickly.
Soon, Rune Quiella, who had burned the two golems to death, returned panting.
[Gasp… Gas… I’m done!]
“….”
Daesung silently pointed to the back of Rune Quiella’s shoulder, where the flames were fluttering.
She opened her eyes and slowly looked in the direction pointed out.
This time, four armored golems were pouring in.
“go.”
[….]
“Don’t just stare blankly, run quickly. “I don’t have much time.”
Rune Quiella closed her eyes tightly.
It’s as if he’s trying to suppress the emotions boiling up inside him.
Then, with a deep sigh, he ran out again and fell into a group of armor golems.
I was planning on leaving the work to Rune Quiella while all my wounds healed, but she fought better than I expected.
‘It’s comfortable.’
Daesung rested his chin on his hand leisurely, as if he was watching a movie.
***
Wow!
The neck of a peregrine falcon caught in a skinny hand was cruelly broken.
“….”
Melcanon threw the peregrine falcon’s body on the floor with cold eyes.
Next to him, Daeseong’s main body, whose consciousness had been transferred, was still sitting cross-legged.
And….
wheeik-!
The sound of the atmosphere bursting exploded.
Another peregrine falcon flew in from the firing line and aimed at the back of Daeseong’s head with its sharp beak raised upright.
“I have very good ears.”
Just before the tip of the unexpected beak stuck into Daesung’s head, which was full of loopholes.
Sigh-!
Melcanon’s hand caught the peregrine falcon again, as if catching a flying arrow.
“So, it’s not a problem to recognize the sound of a bird-headed creature struggling.”
Ttuduk!
The neck of the peregrine falcon caught in his grasp was instantly broken in the shape of a flagpole.
It is mechanical repetition.
When a hawk aims for the monarch’s head, it reaches out and catches it. And break it.
How many times has this happened already?
Melcanon sighed softly and shook his head.
“Don’t just snoop around and show these things, but show your true self with confidence. “What are you doing to make each other lose energy since yesterday?”
Melcanon knew about miracles such as magic or sorcery because he had reached the level of mastery.
The identity of these peregrine falcons, who have been persistently targeting the monarch’s life since the day before, is not just an ordinary bird of prey.
He was an assassin sent by some kind of entity by taming him.
“Let’s put an end to this boring war of attrition. Since you don’t seem to want to come out, I’ll let you come out.”
Melcanon’s eyes shined coolly through the hawk’s feathers fluttering in the wind of the wilderness.
The moment his eyelids closed.
phut-!
“Ugh…!”
The wave created by the power of the eye struck the assassin hiding nearby.
Immediately after, a black-robed monster whose invisibility was removed rolled around on the floor.
As a result, the hood of the robe went down, revealing the face of a middle-aged woman with hollow cheeks.
Her bruised body trembled and she raised her eyes.
“Get out of the way…! “I have to kill that man no matter what happens…!”
“Did he do something bad to you?”
“Revelation…”
The woman, whose pain was still not gone, grabbed the mud on the floor.
She continued speaking, gritting her teeth as if her molars were about to cave in.
“He gave me a revelation… the angels of heaven… if I kill that man…!”
“What if I kill you?”
“One thing… I will make my wish come true…!”
Melcanon thought for a moment, twisting his pure white curly hair with his fingers.
timing. angel. Secret Garden.
And the purpose of killing the monarch.
After putting together the clues, it was quite obvious who possessed that woman and sent her as an assassin.
‘It’s the spirit of the contract this time.’
Seeing as they are talking about a secret garden, it seems like that is the reward you get for killing the monarch.
Surely, if you search the heavenly sanctuary, you will find at least one sacred object that can grant simple wishes.
Melcanon asked with interest.
“So what is the wish you want to achieve by doing this?”
But the woman didn’t answer.
He responded by hitting the ground in the field with his palm.
Shoot!
At that time, the mud accumulated in the nearby field stood up in a round shape.
Subsequently, the mud took on the shape of a human figure with limbs.
Melcanon muttered, covering the dust particles pouring down on the top of Daesung’s head with a protective shield.
“Although it is a basic technique, it is extremely crude…”
Shoot! Shoot!
The sound of the high mud solidifying into the shape of a human remains continues.
Melcanon laughed. It was a smile that gave off an air of pride.
“Looking at this, it doesn’t seem like you have no talent at all.”
Before I knew it, there were so many clay dolls that it was impossible to fit them all into view.
The woman shouted sharply even as blood poured out of her mouth.
“Kill me…!”
Thump thump thump!
So many mud figures that it was difficult to count them all at once charging towards the center where the main castle was located.
“Sand storm.”
The next moment, Melcanon’s wooden staff emitted dark blue light.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
A black and blue flash lit up the field, and at the same time, a magnificent storm broke out.
Yellow whirlpools swirled in all directions as they cut through the ground, swallowing up the clay dolls all at once.
Despair flashed across the woman’s face.
The current one was a miraculous power exerted by scraping together the last handful of vitality.
He performed the summoning magic of a lifetime and instantly created an army of monsters.
But the white-haired wizard settled the situation with just a flick of his wand.
I felt like I had been thrown out onto a wasteland with no destination in sight, like this plain in Manchuria.
“It’s good to have talent, but the line to develop that talent has been cut off today… As a senior in this field, I feel very sorry.”
“…!”
The woman, feeling a chill, tried to use the summoning spell again.
Anything was fine, so for now I had to use my summons to resist.
But there was no way Melcanon would tolerate that struggle.
Kugugu-!
“Kuhuhuh…?!”
The ground in contact with the woman’s abdomen mutated into a blade-like shape and erupted.
The focus gradually disappeared from the eyes of the woman floating in the air with her stomach pierced.
“My daughter… my beloved daughter… Rebecca…” A
voice thick with blood came from the dying woman’s mouth.
She gasped in pain and sobbed in tears.
“Please forgive this ugly mother who left first without being able to do anything for your illness…”
And the woman lowered her head.
The sound of breathing stopped. At this time, the wind in the wilderness that had been blowing calmed down and the surroundings became quiet.
Melcanon looked indifferently at the woman’s cold, desolate corpse.
‘I sent a contract spirit to a man who was dying before.’
I’m talking about the hunters of Ussuriysk. Fortunately, his attempt ended as an attempt.
‘And this time, a woman with a sick daughter made a contract with the spirit.’
There was one clear thing in common.
The point is that the Spirit of Contract is sent only to those who are driven out.
This is what I say, standing tall above those who are hanging on the cliff and in despair.
He says he won’t give you the rope if you don’t kill Daesung.
‘This is a threat under the guise of revelation.’
His eyes became sharper and colder than a bird of prey.
The woman’s circumstances are none of her business. It was pitiful and pitiful, but that didn’t make me feel like forgiving him.
It just makes me angry.
Arch Lich Melcanon was extremely uncomfortable with their actions, polluting the pure miracle of magic in this way.
It was then.
Scream!
A spirit flapped its wings and flew up from the dead woman’s body.
Spirit of Contract.
Due to the death of the incarnation, the contract is canceled and the person hurries to leave.
“This woman said you were angels, but I don’t think so.”
Melcanon caught the spirit of the contract that was trying to escape with a nimble hand.
The spirit in the shape of the fifth apostle Orkiel struggled wildly.
The spirit shouted something in Orchiel’s voice, but Melcanon, who was completely irritated, could not hear it.
“In my opinion, you are closer to devils than angels.”
Melcanon’s grip grew stronger. The contract spirit struggled, his face bloodshot.
Snap…
And then I immediately closed my eyes and fainted.
They didn’t kill him intentionally.
Melcanon glared at the unconscious spirit and suddenly thought of something.
-If you don’t want to come first, just wait there. I will come to you soon and shove my intestines into your mouths. – These
are the words the monarch said recently while killing the contract spirit sent by Adonis.
Melcanon hinted as he glanced at Daesung, whose voice could not be heard.
“I will make it happen as you wish.”
