Solo Eating to Overpowered Chapter 26

Episode 26. Merry Christmas!

=================

* *

The vampire felt the pain of even his soul burning.

Holy power penetrates every corner of the body, causing pain.

-You damn priest!

But it’s okay.

I can endure this much.

That priest won’t be safe from the blow just now.

Even if his limbs were intact, he would no longer have the strength to gather his holy power.

With that thought in mind, the vampire count raised his upper body.

“I am a legionnaire.”

The vampire was startled and his body stiffened.

Someone’s murmur is heard.

“He is the successor of Gaia.”

At that moment, I felt pressure pressing down on my entire body.

The air layer becomes heavier.

A chill ran down my spine.

Goosebumps appeared all over my body and I instinctively refused to move.

‘What is this feeling…’

The Vampire Count swallowed dry saliva and looked back.

A person standing with a great sword stuck in the ground.

A person with a long sword on his belt.

Those holding bows and crossbows and those carrying spears on their shoulders.

Those with maces and shields hanging down, etc.

You can see 30 undead holding various weapons.

But they are not ordinary undead.

Wearing white armor, they were sitting or standing on the remains of the ruins as chairs.

Blue breath flowed from his mouth. The two eyes glowed as if they were alive.

‘They’ open their mouths.

No, to be more precise, I moved my jaw and clashed my teeth.

-I can feel the lingering scent of death.

‘Sacred power’ is contained in the low murmur.

This is unheard of.

It is not a voice that an ordinary dead person can make.

The beings called ‘Holy Knights’ turned their gaze towards the prince.

-Is he the master who created us?

-So what is our purpose?

-Why were we created?

They ‘thought’ with ‘self’.

Turn your head.

Their eyes turned to the vampire.

The blue eyes narrowed.

-You are a heretic who broke the rules of this world.

-Is this why we were created?

-Microorganisms that maintain the balance of the world claim to be life.

The vampire met their eyes and stiffened.

‘What is that…?’

Although the vampire was small, he heard the ‘starter’ that the priest had spoken.

The starting word was a word meaning Gaia, the god of life, not Judai, the god of death.

That’s why it was strange.

Necromancer Amon served the god of death. But you call it Gaia when you summon the dead using that skull?

ㅡ…This is nonsense.

The vampire stepped back and ignored the truth.

This was something that couldn’t happen and shouldn’t have happened.

The other person called her ‘Gaia’, but there was no way that the goddess of life had the power to control the dead.

Those were ‘foreign beings’ that even Goddess Gaia would be shocked to see.

-The reason we were created is obvious.

-After all, you have to listen to and follow proper orders.

The Holy Knights gather and line up.

Then, they gather in front of the boy wearing the goat skull and carefully kneel down and bow their heads.

It is not a bow to the lord. It looks like believers full of faith are waiting for a command filled with faith.

–Order…

The owner did not speak to the words of the holy dead.

Just take action.

The priest wearing Amon’s skull raised his finger and pointed at the vampire. And crack your thumbs.

Simple action. A command that others would not understand.

However, the Holy Knights connected to the master understood what the command was.

They stood up.

Raise and tilt your head.

They glared at the vampire.

-We…

The blue eyes glowed.

-I hate death.

Fear flashed across the vampire’s face.

-Koooooo…!

At the same time as the Holy Knight howled, holy power erupted from between the armor.

The vampire count covered his ears.

A word containing sacred power.

The howl was enough to burst my eardrums and shake my soul.

The Holy Knights lower their posture.

Raise your armed weapons.

They stepped on the ground and ran towards the vampire.

-You monsters…!

The vampire’s complexion turned blue.

A dead man with sexual powers…!

Where did such a hybrid come from?

This is an anomaly in this world.

They called themselves vampires ‘those who broke the rules of the world’, but that is a contradictory story.

Because they are ‘those who break the rules’ who should not exist!

Those were beings who broke the rules of this world.

-You damn fools…! You are heretics who disobeyed the will of Yudai, the god of death!

The vampire gathered all his strength into magical power.

He slammed his magically-filled hand down on the ground.

The ground splits and runes are carved into it. The dead crawled out of hell.

Zombies, skeleton ghouls, Dullahan, etc.

About 200 bodies jump out and cry.

-Punish the heretics who betrayed Yudai’s will!

The vampire waved his hand.

The dead cried out and ran towards the Holy Knight.

The Holy Knight, holding a great sword, steps on the ground.

The ground distorted and both hands grabbed the handle of the great sword and swung it.

-Eternal rest to the dead…

With a single blow, the undead float into the air and disappear into ashes.

-Bless Gaia, who saves life…

Holy Knights holding crossbows and bows pulled the trigger and shot arrows.

The bullet of light penetrates the undead in an instant.

-We are Gaia’s spear and her shield.

The Holy Knight holding a shield creates an iron wall, and those holding spears stab from behind it.

Those who touched the shield were invariably set on fire, and those who were stabbed by the spear blade exploded in a spiral shape and disappeared.

About 200 undead vs. 30 holy knights.

Although the vampires were overwhelmingly outnumbered, they could not even make a scratch on a single Holy Knight.

-Ah ah…!

The vampire felt fear.

Caught by them and purified.

The new life that has been barely gained over the past 50 years will disappear!

ㅡAaaah!

The vampire count screamed and closed his mouth.

His stomach becomes bulging.

The convex belly turned from the neck to the mouth.

Magical power leaks out between the torn mouth.

He let out a deathly breath with all his might.

No, I tried to spit it out.

ㅡKoooooooo!

One Holy Knight swung his great sword from bottom to top.

It splits the vampire’s convex belly and chin.

Magical power leaks out, and the skin burns to ashes.

ㅡUgh!

Arrows and bolts connected to chains flew out and pierced the vampire’s entire body.

The chains attached to it, sticking out like a hedgehog, restricted his freedom.

The heavy body was dragged out and fell to the floor.

The Holy Knights smashed the vampire’s legs with their shields.

-Aaaah!

The blade of the spear wraps around his neck and restrains him.

30 sacred undead clung to him and completely suppressed the vampire’s freedom.

Then a priest came in front of him.

He took off the skull of Amon he was wearing.

And he was breathing while holding a musket in one hand.

-No. Save me! Argh!

The vampire howled.

Can not be done. You must not face that thing!

That guy…!

A shadow fell on the face of the vampire lying on the floor.

The Vampire Count raised his head.

A priest tramples on his head.

The vampire count’s eyes widened.

He is a younger boy than you think.

He appears to be around 15 and 6 years old at most.

But he is not an ordinary boy.

His expression was bloodier than any other wicked devil.

The eyes and mouth are smiling.

This crazy devil opened his mouth.

“The name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit···.”

A gun was placed in front of my eyes.

A terrifyingly ominous sacred power was gathering.

and···.

“Merry Christmas. vampire. “Say hello to Gaia in hell.”

I pulled the trigger, muttering something I couldn’t tell whether it was blasphemy or praise for God.

* *

December 25th.

The morning sun rises.

The warm sunlight drove out the shadows and released the energy of sunshine.

The magical fog still remains. However, even it was emitting a soft light, so it felt like I was looking at a beautiful snowy field.

One prisoner stuck his sword in the ground.

He exhaled harshly and looked away.

The dead cannot be seen beyond the outer wall.

Everyone scattered.

The dead who had just remained were also slowly melting away, immersed in a lake made of holy water.

Perplexity appeared on the faces of the prisoners and soldiers.

Their expressions twitched for a moment.

The corner of my mouth twitches.

My eye muscles twitched.

and···.

“we···. “We won!”

Lord Gerald declared victory by forcefully raising his hand, which he could not raise properly.

“ah···. iced coffee···.”

“I lived… all.”

“I survived!”

The soldiers and prisoners cheered.

The residents and refugees in the territory also cheered with joy.

Harmon moved unsteadily.

His eyes widened as he looked at the ruined open space in the center of Ronia territory.

Knights made of light stood there.

However, it also scattered particles for a while and disappeared.

A boy is seen in the vacant lot, a girl is supporting the boy, and a man is unconscious.

and···.

“vampire···?”

I saw a vampire disappearing, starting with his head and turning into a pile of ashes.

Harman looked at the prince with his mouth shut.

Supported by the girl, he smiled and fell asleep as if he had fainted.

* *

On the hill away from Ronia Estate.

When there were no sightings of undead in the Land of the Dead for a month, the Holy Emperor sensed signs of abnormality and sent its most elite unit, the ‘Holy Cross’.

And it wasn’t until the morning of the 25th that we arrived at Ronia territory.

They looked at Ronia territory from the top of the hill.

The old man in the lead among them muttered with an indifferent expression.

“…Are we one step too late?”

It is covered in thick and heavy armor.

In his left hand, he holds a large cross shield that covers his entire body, and in his right hand, he holds a huge hammer.

On his head he wore a helmet that looked like a crown.

Unlike the figure wearing heavy white armor, the old man inside looked small.

“It seems so.”

“I did it just in case. “I heard that there were abnormal signs in the land of the Four Spirits, so I thought the King of the Four Spirits had been resurrected…”

The old man looked at Ronia Estate and narrowed his eyes.

“Was it a prank by a petty vampire?”

It was a Lonia territory made up of mostly prisoners and residents.

The fact that he was unable to attack and capture Ronia means that he is not a vampire with great power.

‘I don’t know how he controlled 20,000 undead, but if he was a vampire who couldn’t even take down the sacrificial castle, that’s probably the extent of it. but···.’

“…It was a strange energy.”

The energy I felt before I arrived here.

It was chaos that arose from the clash of holy power and magical power.

Just by looking at it, it means that he is a vampire with strong magical power.

It also said that someone with holy powers fought a vampire.

The fact that the Ronia territory cheered for victory like this meant that someone with holy power had killed the vampire.

He looked at the Ronia estate and muttered to himself.

“…Has a saint even appeared?”

A being that God reincarnates by splitting his own fragments for entertainment.

That being was called a saint or a saint.

Since they do not know about memories and their own existence, it can be seen that very few people realize it.

“That would be great.”

The war between vampires and humans has been going on for thousands of years.

As time passed, the vampires cleverly infiltrated the human population.

To prevent this, it would be good to have a central point such as a saint or a saint.

The old man smiled bitterly.

When it’s time to die, you start to have unreasonable expectations.

There is no way you can become a saint just by killing one vampire.

“Send priests and healers and pharmacists. Treat the people first and give the next prisoners a chance.”

It doesn’t matter if prisoners and slaves die.

However, we cannot help but worry about the safety of the people.

“All right.”

The paladin bowed his head.

“I’m going back.”

The old man turned around and got on the horse.

The Holy Knight spoke to the old man.

“…The 7th Prince will be there too.”

The question was whether I would like to take a look.

The old man’s expression became distorted.

He glared at the paladin as if he were looking at an enemy.

“There is no need to see a child dishonoring his mother. “He must have been hiding in the manor’s mansion and shivering.”

You’d be lucky if you didn’t urinate.

“Goes. Let’s hear the rest of the report from Harmon. Call him to the imperial palace. “I will have to hear more details from the imperial palace.”

“I understand. Your Majesty.”

The great hero who killed the Demon King Amon 50 years ago and the current ruler of the Holy Emperor.

Celt Olfolse glanced at Ronia Estate before leaving.

“Damn grandson.”

The Holy Emperor Celtic Orpols returned to the imperial palace of the Holy Emperor.

And after two weeks, Paladin Harman came to report.

In the throne room, which could be seen as a gigantic grand hall, Harman looked at the magnificent Celtic Olfolth sitting on the throne and said, bowing his head.

“The prince hunted the vampire count.”

After hearing the report, Seonghwang kept his mouth shut.
