58 – Sacrifice and Offering

The Inquisitors wielded swords and maces. Even though the world was becoming dark due to the black magic of the black magicians, they used divine spells to radiate light.

The Pandemonium’s army was well enough to stop it. The guys rushed straight ahead without fear.

The Paladins in the foreground raised their shields high to block the demons.

This was the first time since the Great War that the devil’s minions had invaded in large numbers. There wasn’t much of a problem. No, it was rather fortunate that they came to the place where the Heretic Questioner was gathered, rather than to another place.

There was no great difficulty in stopping the minions. Whenever the Paladins wielded their swords and maces, their red blood gushed out.

The stamina was reinforced through the priest’s buff, and when the buffed stamina was exhausted, he fell back for a while and recovered through the priest’s spell.

It was not possible to fight them indefinitely, but there was no great difficulty in stopping the Pandemonium’s army.

The problem was the black magicians coming from the rear.

“Ryzen. I was within their range.”

The warlocks fired arrows of darkness before Limeria finished speaking. A black magic ball covered the sky.

“Form a shield!”

High Priest Zea shouted.

Ryzen clicked his tongue and looked back and forth. Even if the demonic army could be stopped, the black magicians were a threat.

I have gathered my troops outnumbered, but if the warlocks attack from a distance, the damage will accumulate.

I would have waited for the hope that assistance would arrive, but at this time there was no way to request assistance.

I wonder if a soldier in the next unit is lucky enough to find it. The current situation was the worst.

“Ryzen-sama….”

“This is the worst…. Limeria, I leave this to Jea and after culling 50 people, I deal with them.”

At first glance, the number of warlocks seemed to be close to 2,000. However, the number of Heretic Questioners currently here is about 400.

Even if they dealt with the warlocks with all their strength, they were outnumbered. There was a chance of winning because each of them had outstanding abilities. However, it was not possible to move troops to the rear because the front demons were swarming.

“It’s been a while since I’ve wielded a knife.”

As soon as Limeria received Ryzen’s order, she selected 50 paladins.

In the meantime, Ryzen was already running towards the warlocks. Limeria, who noticed her belatedly, issued an order to the Heretic Inquisitors.

“Help Raizen!”

Limeria and 50 Heretic Questioners followed Ryzen.

***

The wolf ran fast. I had been running all day without a break. Gran restored the ancient wolf’s physical strength to its fullest through divine spells.

Gran didn’t even take a break. Even menstruation was eliminated through purification. Before long, a wire could be seen in the distance.

Black smoke rose, and the day quickly turned dark. The heretic inquisitors and the black magicians got entangled and were aiming for each other’s throats.

“Go, ancient wolf!”

The warlock who discovered Gran’s appearance exclaimed.

“Wolves? Kill them so they can’t come closer!”

The warlocks quickly lined up and fired arrows of darkness.

“You idiot.”

An arrow of darkness exploded and swallowed Gran. Gran’s figure was swallowed up in black flames and disappeared.

“… Uh?”

Even though the flames disappeared, the wolf and Gran were nowhere to be seen. Even the traces are gone.

Even the warlocks knew. That their black magic is not black magic that will make even traces disappear.

“Lord, look around you!”

The warlocks looked around and tried to find Gran.

Quaaang!

At that moment, Gran fell from the sky and hit the ground with a huge staff.

As if some kind of explosive magic had been used, a storm formed and the moist soil shot up into the sky.

The warlocks around Gran could not keep their balance and fell.

Booooong!

Paaagh!

Gran swung his staff and blew off the head of the warlock who lost his balance.

“Lord, kill me!”

“Behind, behind, aaagh!”

Behind Gran, a huge wolf bit the warlock’s torso. As the wolf mashed and shook the torso with its teeth, the warlock’s body was dismembered.

Gran moved forward while dealing with the warlocks. They were all people who had to be killed. The High Priestess swung her staff without letting go.

He took out warlocks faster than ever.

Every time he swung his huge wand, the heads of the warlocks exploded, and when Gran threw his wand with all his might, he pierced the torso of countless warlocks.

There was no black magician who attacked Gran. He widened his distance and launched a ranged attack.

While the warlocks were being killed by Gran, a huge warlock blocked Gran’s path.

“Go, it’s Ganus-sama….”

He blocked Gran’s path in a demonized state, and the size was well over 3 meters.

Ganus watched Gran with an expressionless face and exhaled hot breath.

“Go, if it’s Ganus-sama….”

Ganus’ arm swelled. Soon, his fingernails sharpened like dragon hands.

“Stupid guy. You crawled into the grave with your feet.”

Booooong.

Gran’s staff flew towards Ganus’s head.

Ganus was different from an ordinary warlock. He was nervous and raised his demonized arm to block his staff.

Paaagh!

The staff cut off Ganus’ arm and struck him in the head. The wand, weakened by cutting off Ganus’ arm, failed to detonate his head, but it did throw him off balance.

Ganus sat down as if his legs were weak and he fell to his left side.

However, his resilience was beyond imagination. The moment he fell, he immediately came to his senses and got up. His severed arm has grown to the point where he can move it before he knows it.

“Do you dare to….”

Booooong.

Paaagh!

This time, Gran’s staff neatly cut off Ganus’ arm.

Booooong.

After cutting off Ganus’s arm, Gran swung his staff again.

Paaagh!

This time, the attack was divided into two parts. Gannus, who had been struck in the head by Gran’s staff, was speechless.

“I, Lord Ganus….”

The high priest killed the next warlock as soon as he had dealt with the warlock cadre.

Warlocks were feared. He didn’t just kill people with swords and magic. When he swung his huge staff, the traces disappeared. It was fortunate to die by being hit with a cane.

When the High Priest had no staff in his hand, he was beaten to death by his fists, or grabbed by his two hands and torn to death.

“Hey, hey! Backwards! Backwards!”

After seeing Ganus die, the warlocks were busy running away from Gran.

Gran looked around her to find Ryzen while dealing with the warlocks, but Ryzen was nowhere to be seen.

In the end, Gran gave up on the search and focused on killing the warlocks.

“Retreat! Retreat!”

The warlocks have begun to retreat. They passed through the front line and fled into the Demon Realm.

Unlike the demons who kept attacking, the black magicians ran away.

Gran, who was chasing the warlocks, stopped and helped the heretic inquisitors fighting the minions of the Pandemonium.

The condition of the interrogators was not good. The speed of swinging the sword was slow, and he didn’t even have the strength to lift the shield.

Gran jumped to the front and killed the approaching minions of the Demon World.

The battle ended only when the demon world’s minions were annihilated.

“If it wasn’t for Gran-nim, we would all be dead.”

JeA, who was taking care of the injured, said.

“Do you know where Ryzen is?”

“He went over there to the rear. I don’t know what’s next. I think there was a big fight over there.”

“Okay.”

Gran moved quickly. Because he had a bad feeling.

Ryzen was among the thick trees. Beside her, Limeria stood tall like a tree with her sword down. She had her head down and her eyes closed.

A man leaned against a tree with his eyes closed next to Limeria. He was Ryzen. There was a large hole in his abdomen and tar-black blood was oozing out of it.

***

Rostas Fortress.

“Keuuu!”

“The wound is deep.”

Dian looked at Moras and said.

“Dog-like bastard…. I thought I killed almost all of them.”

“Originally, religious people are a bit persistent. But will I ever recover?”

The skin of Moras was melting without being restored by the divine power.

“As long as I have time, it doesn’t matter. They also do a lot of damage. Now that the Pope and Ryzen are dead, they will need to reorganize like we did. For the time being, I’ll just have to concentrate on recovering.”

“Yes? Demon hunters are here too.”

“It’s okay. We have the devil’s minions. And since you are there, it won’t matter. After the reorganization is complete, we will attack the religious bastards again.”

“Hmm…. Will it take too long?”

“I became like this because of Ryzen, so I can’t help it.”

“Yes… ? Then there’s nothing you can do about it.”

“Yes….”

Quaak!

“aaah! What are you doing!”

“Sir Moras…. Stop resting.”

Dian grabbed Morath’s heart. Moras suddenly became emaciated, leaving only her withered shell.

“Gran…. You are done.”
