64 – Not just once (3)

Tigris analyzed the current situation.

this is for sure

Powerful black magic was activated.

If black magic was suddenly unfolding inside the city at such a time, it could be seen that a spy inside the city had moved.

However, the Black Tower Master had never planted spies in the city.

It’s a big thing that I didn’t have time to plant it.

I had roughly selected a city that would become a sacrifice, so I wonder if I can afford to work on something.

So what is this black magic?

Looking at the powerful power that touched the sky, the owner of the Black Tower felt ominous.

And it wasn’t long before I found out.

“…Pafe?”

There were signs that the dark magic of the sky would collapse.

It shouldn’t be like that, and if that happens, everything is nothing.

Her eyes, which had been filled with confidence until now, wavered.

Unexpected variables arose.

Could it be that a powerful black magician is lurking without even knowing it?

Even so, does such an existence interfere with her work?

“No.”

Her attitude, which had always been relaxed, changed.

I was thinking of cooking the city for a week if possible, but I just couldn’t afford that right now.

Especially considering that it left a fatal loophole, the destruction will be done faster than anything else.

However, it is not possible to take all the demonic energy gathered in the sky before becoming a pariah.

It would be suicidal to over-concentrate halfway demonic energy that could not be transcended.

More than 50,000 people were killed and had to reach the transcendence with an enormous amount of accumulated demons.

She immediately gave the order.

From now on, it’s a quick fix.

No, it was too late to make a quick decision.

unconditionally overcome

By breaking through to the center of the black magic over there, I had to block it right away, and I was able to stop the plan from going nowhere.

“All the warlocks of the Dark Magic Tower, do your best! If you risk your life here and use black magic, I will pay the full price. You must risk your life unconditionally!”

“Yes? Did something happen? Even news from the capital is still quiet.”

“The water is not the problem! Right now, everything is on the brink of collapse!”

Black Pagoda Master immediately explained the plan, saying that even one minute and one second was a waste of time even though he was angry.

“Break through one point! You must penetrate the city and reach the center there unconditionally, and do not choose any means from there!”

“Ah, I see!”

While all the black magicians were preparing for the black magic, the knights felt the unusual atmosphere and had a conversation.

“…Are you going to get to the center of the city? What is your intention?”

“It looks urgent, is it good?”

It sounded like good news, since the warlocks, who were always relaxed, suddenly seemed impatient.

And Reinhardt, who was beside him, murmured.

“It’s a start.”

“Well, then what will happen?”

Even though Fran was full of worries, Reinhardt quietly took out his sword.

He has no intention of stepping down.

“It’s something to judge by looking at the actions of the Black Tower Master. If you’re trying to reach the center of the city, you have to block it, or even if it’s not, you’ll have to respond accordingly.”

Bessia gathered her holy power.

It is an opportunity to break the bad relationship with the Black Pagoda Master.

She had a savage resolve.

“Then we have to stop it.”

Looking at the determination of the two, Fran also nodded.

Through the necklace, a mana dwelled in her body.

“I will block it too.”

It wasn’t that the knights and soldiers didn’t notice either.

The senior knight, who had heard their conversation closely, raised his sword high and shouted.

“Do your best to stop it! We must prevent those outrageous things from reaching the center of the city!”

“yep!”

“All right!”

By the time that resolution and resolution continued, Tiagris’ eyes were stained black.

Before losing control yet, it absorbed the demonic energy of the sky.

I couldn’t take all of it right away, but even a portion of it was a considerable amount.

…and she had one too.

The thing I received from the King of Death is in my chest.

As I squeezed it, I endured the terrible pain felt throughout my body.

“More than I thought, it hurts quite a bit.”

But for the sake of immortality, a lifelong wish.

What a terrible path you have walked.

I came all the way here just for the sake of immortality, and there’s not much left.

Not only his eyes were stained black, but his whole body was turning black due to the oversaturation of demonic energy.

Even if the aftereffects remain large, I used the strength to pull it as much as I could now.

“What are you going to do, Tower Lord?”

Tigris, who had drawn demons and collected them, responded by somehow holding back his mind that had fallen into chaos.

“Fire the bombardment, until everyone dies.”

“All right!”

Following her order, they risked their lives to attempt an artillery bombardment.

Even the black magicians didn’t appreciate their own revival, but they couldn’t resist the black pagoda lord.

My head is going to explode with a single gesture, but I can’t go out because I don’t want to risk my life.

A bombardment of a different scale than before fell from the sky.

Everyone was terrified.

No matter how much he pulled out his sword to stop the Black Pagoda Master, it was not possible to block the bombardment of black magic floating in the air.

Also, expecting a large number of casualties, citizens tried to hide somewhere to survive.

Amidst the confusion and panic, artillery fire fell on the city in a parabolic arc.

The moment it touches and explodes.

An oddity has occurred.

A large black magic shield was created that covered the entire city.

Kwagwagagagak-!

A fierce explosion erupted, but the bombardment could not penetrate the shield and only exploded in the air.

Seeing that, the Black Tower Master was even more absurd.

“Did you even connect?”

I had already connected to the demonic energy of the sky and pulled and used it.

It’s not completely taken over yet, so it’s not completely destroyed, but if a little more time passes, she will be completely defeated.

Knowing that she herself was vulnerable to black magic, she thought that she would not have much time to spare the moment she was destroyed.

But this is too fast.

Not an ordinary black magician.

A powerful black magician with superior skills than her.

“Tower lord, what should I do now… ?”

The faces of the black magicians who risked their lives were very pale.

They paid the price, so over time, they will naturally die.

In order for them to survive, the Black Tower Master had to transcend and help them.

But she couldn’t afford that.

He leaps right away without even answering.

Her whole body was stained with demonic energy, and she possessed physical abilities superior to advanced demons, albeit temporarily.

He jumped over the wall just by leaping.

The moment she landed on the floor, a number of soldiers, knights, and a party of three warriors were standing to stop her.

“I can’t pass. Villain!”

“Pay for your sins!”

Seeing the knights shouting so proudly, the Black Tower Master laughed.

I want to turn everything into blood clots and kill them, but I can’t afford that.

Concentrate demon energy on the legs to leap again.

However, it had the power to punish the Black Pagoda owner for going further without caring about others.

Flash-!

An intense light shot towards her.

As the holy powers crushed Tiagris, she felt terrible pain.

In particular, in a situation where the whole body is stained with demonic energy, the absolute highest level of holy power penetrates the whole body, and the whole body feels burning pain.

“Where are you going!”

“Kiaaagh!”

After struggling in pain, he finally came to his senses and gnashed his teeth.

“Huh, I should have killed him earlier.”

She regretted not being able to kill Bethia.

It is the same now.

I had to head to the center to block a bigger stumbling block, but I couldn’t afford to kill that priest.

I should have been attacking the city all day yesterday instead of taking my time.

The destruction of black magic has begun, and it seemed highly likely to collapse within a short period of time.

The moment this happened, she was at a great disadvantage.

You have to do crazy things to break through the city with your bare body.

“I will definitely kill them all.”

Thinking that if she reached transcendence after completing this task, she would kill them all somehow, so she used powerful black magic to break down the obstacles in front of her.

When she pulled out the demonic energy that had stained her whole body, the demonic energy gathered in the center of her while swirling.

“…make a shield to stop it? So what if we explode it inside the city?”

-Ughhh… .

A black orb appeared in front of her.

Bessia poured her holy power into trying to block it this time, but a solid shield was covering Tigris, as if she would not be defeated again.

“Everything is scattered!”

Fran, who saw that, warned everyone.

The amount of magic gathered was unusual.

If that explodes, everyone here will die in droves.

No, Fran has the confidence to live.

Because I can create a barrier to block that.

The problem is that only she will survive.

That’s not the ending you want.

The moment when everyone was running away and trying to escape from a great danger.

There was a girl who was moving forward.

“…Bessia? Are you crazy?!”

“I’m not crazy.”

As if she was going to do everything in her power here, she was emitting explosive holy power to the extent that her very existence seemed like an intense light.

She threw herself into a life-threatening situation.

Because when that black magic is completed, a large number of people will die unconditionally without any way to stop it.

I took that risk and went ahead.

When Bessia approached like that and stretched out her hand, it pierced Tigris’ barrier to the point of futility.

The hand that pierced the barrier and emitted white light headed for the sphere that Tigris had drawn.

“Mi, crazy bitch!”

“Let’s end the bad relationship here, bitch.”

Even so, Bethia smiled broadly.

It’s a smile that I evoked because I thought I could finally break the terrible evil here.

It doesn’t matter how much you get hurt here.

That’s enough, she thought.

“Are you going to die together?!”

“You’re the only one going to die, because you don’t intend to die here?”

Holy power and demonic energy were mixed, and the black sphere took on an ominous color.

Fran poured all her mana into a barrier.

In order to save even one more person, he created a barrier for the people next to him.

I couldn’t imagine how massive the aftermath of that sphere would be.

“Stop it, Bethia, you could really die!”

Fran exclaimed desperately.

An explosion right in front of such an orb will destroy both of them.

However, this will kill Vesiah.

I can never let you die

“Am I dying?”

Where the hell did Bessia get her confidence from? She was sure that she wouldn’t die even in this situation.

Seeing that, Fran was so dumbfounded and heartbroken that she cried out.

“Did you even get stained by Argal? It’s hard with just one Argal, but what should I do with Bessia?”

“I’m stained by some kind of Argal, he’s doing crazy things even though he has a premonition that he’s going to die, and he’s moving like this because I’m sure he won’t die.”

Bessia, who answered that, turned her head and looked at the Black Tower Master.

“it’s not like that?”

Tigris looked at the sphere with trembling eyes.

As if it would explode at any moment, the color of the sphere was dyed red.

this is a game of chicken

A game in which the one who gets scared loses.

“Pray, bitch.”

And the one who was scared here was Tigris.

It was unfair to die like this with the goal I had longed for the rest of my life in front of me.

It’s too big a loss to be together.

He hurriedly began to remove the demonic energy blown into the sphere, and the sphere changed from red to white.

However, due to the small amount of demonic energy, the sphere caused a huge explosion.

It wasn’t a bigger explosion than feared, but Besiah was hit by it and had no choice but to fly away.

Seeing that, Reinhardt immediately spoke to the knights around him.

“Take the priest and protect Bessia.”

“All right.”

He still gazed coldly at the figure rising high out of the great mass of dust.

The black pagoda jumped high in the middle of the explosion and headed towards the center of the city.

There is a city hall where Argal stays.

Similarly, the Sword Saint also muttered as he ran out.

“…I look forward to it.”

Argal said that when you play Pafe, you become defenseless.

Even so, he blocked the bombardment with black magic.

There must be a reason.

If so, no matter how early the Black Pagoda Master arrives, he will not be able to stop it.
