Chapter 137 Demons met at the border

There were traces of torture all over the body of the man who was chained to a tree and hung limp.

“Jjasik, I will tell you when you talk nicely.”

It was Ilya who patted his hands in front of the man and smiled with satisfaction.

“Anyway, really, if this guy says it, it’s a big deal… … .”

There was a shadow quietly approaching Ilya who was immersed in worry with his chin resting on his chin.

“Cillian, I’m not in the mood to play around right now.”

“No, who is playing the prank? It just came.”

The identity of the shadow was Killian, who was chasing after the man who left the East on horseback.

“How is it?”

“The problem is more serious than we thought.”

“What about him?”

“I was not a villager. So I didn’t give a damn.”

For Killian to say that was like killing and burying him.

“Good job.”

“How is this guy?”

“It’s all burned. He is not a villager either.”

“So, in the first place, the villagers… … ?”

“Yeah, I think they killed them all.”

“how! These guys are not even worms!”

Killian punched the man tied to a tree in the face with all his might.

puck!

“Ouch!”

The man who had fainted woke up from Killian’s fist.

“Sah, save me. please save me I told you everything.”

“Why did you wake up so loud? Let’s sleep again.”

“Shall we fully sleep?”

“No, we need a witness, so let him live.”

“yes.”

At Ilia’s command, Killian approached the man and began beating him as much as he could without dying.

“Wow!”

The man, unable to overcome the beating, vomited and passed out again.

“Are you coming back with this guy?”

Looking at the fainted man, Killian asked, and Ilya shook his head.

“We still have to go to the place he told us to find the bodies of the imperial messengers and villagers.”

“Can you make a sacrifice for me?”

“You can’t leave it as it is. You should let it go comfortably.”

Although they once lived as assassins, they also had convictions.

‘Even if I get a request and kill it, let’s make the path easier.’

Even the ‘Black Side’ was famous for being picky about the request itself, considering the context.

“Should I call the kids?”

“What are you making noise for? Can we use these guys?”

“Ah, I see.”

The small towns of the Empire had already been replaced by those who had infiltrated from the East.

They showed meticulousness in changing their appearance to avoid being caught.

They were the ones who had to be sorted out anyway.

Ilia and Killian took the man tied to the tree and returned to the village.

The elite soldiers who had left before us were able to run into them right away.

The soldier who came with them explained everything, and we set off again for the dispatch site.

“So a bunch of monsters?”

“Yes, it was definitely a group of monsters.”

The soldiers also said that they had no choice but to believe the words of the first reporter because they had all heard it.

“Count Yoo Seo-jun! Nice to meet you! I’m Bright Child, the head of the Eastern Border Guard! I was waiting to be contacted.”

Arriving at the post where we found the group with the naked eye, we were able to meet the head of the border guard.

“Yes, how is the situation?”

“I haven’t encountered any monsters yet. But soon.”

I climbed on top of the watchtower and saw where the captain pointed.

Soon we could find sand dust rising in the desert.

Looking closely, there were indeed various desert monsters swarming in the dust.

“Does it really have nothing to do with the East?”

“I don’t know for sure. I think you’ll find out after defeating the monsters.”

“Then, soldiers, conserve your stamina in case of an unexpected situation. I deal with monsters alone.”

“yes?!”

Surprised by my words, the captain tried to stop me.

“No, you’re saying you’re going to deal with that many people alone?”

“I like it because it is comfortable. There are also things to check.”

“Even though… … .”

I spoke firmly to the hesitant captain.

“If you’re really worried, watch over me and come and help me when I think I’m in danger.”

“still… … .”

“This is my order as Count.”

“… … All right. All troops! Support the Count! Grab your bow and wait!”

“yes!”

Hundreds of soldiers waiting for his command responded loudly.

They held their bows on top of the watchtower and took their position in perfect order.

I came out of the guard post guided by a soldier.

In front of them, there was a group of monsters that were getting pretty close.

I felt the ground shaking due to the monsters.

It was a huge vibration.

I focused my mind as I walked towards the crowd of monsters running towards me.

“Respond to the summons!”

And I used a summoning skill in a place where I felt that I was quite far from the guard post.

*

“omg! Great, boss! that!”

“I’m watching too!”

The soldiers waiting at the watchtower and Captain Bright were speechless at the sight they had never seen before.

Captain Bright swallowed saliva as he strained the hand holding the bow.

‘What kind of person is Count Yu Seo-jun?’

He knew that he was a disciple of the Archmage.

So when the Count confidently said he would deal with a group of monsters alone, I thought he was using some kind of great magic.

No, wouldn’t it be that what was unfolding in front of his eyes was a great magic?

‘That’s why I said I’d deal with him alone with confidence.’

It was a spectacle that unfolded after Count Yoo Seo-jun raised his hand and shouted something.

Huge trolls, bears, and orcs began to appear on either side of him, and monsters continued to be summoned after that.

Suddenly, in front of the guard post, it seemed that there was no room to step on with the monster army summoned by Yoo Seo-jun.

“I think there are at least three hundred of them.”

“It is scary. Was being a wizard such a job?”

“This, this. It’s not normal magic. Among black magic, it is the highest level of magic, summoning magic!”

A border post was not without a wizard.

Choi, a 5th-circle wizard from the Mage Tower of the Empire who was dispatched to the border post, couldn’t keep his mouth shut from the summoning magic unfolding in front of him.

“I heard from the Archmage, but I never thought he would be such a great wizard. You will be at least a 7th Circle Master or higher! Besides, summoning magic uses magic. Count Yu Seo-jun… … You are also proficient in black magic.”

After hearing the wizard’s explanation, the people opened their mouths wide enough to not notice even if their jaws fell out, and began to look at the situation in front of them.

“It’s because I don’t understand it well, wasn’t it only possible for demons to use demonic energy?”

The appearance of the demons spread the news to those who were far away.

It was because Emperor Cetric had given instructions to prepare for the appearance of demons anytime, anywhere.

It was for that reason that Penzaric dispatched soldiers and wizards all over the continent.

“Not necessarily. Magi is a type of mana. However, it is difficult to handle and can break the body.”

“Then, how about Count Yoo Seo-jun?”

Choi sincerely answered Captain Bright’s question.

“I heard from the Archmage that the Count is a mage chosen by Mana. Although rare, it is the most enviable body of mages. The Count will probably be able to use Magi without any damage.”

“her! What! Are you even dreaming!”

Bright couldn’t believe that he could see such a great wizard in his lifetime.

Kyaaa!

oh oh oh!

Crowalala!

Aww!

As the cries of various monsters rang out at once, the air seemed to vibrate.

The soldiers all covered their ears and ducked at the tremendous momentum of the monsters.

And soon two monster hordes collided in the desert.

*

Skill was a great success.

A total of 350 monsters could be contracted with a skill that reached max level.

The summoned monsters followed my instructions and started fighting the monsters they faced.

I helped them reduce the number of monsters by using the dark element.

“Despair!”

The monsters hit by the dark element shot with my will fell into nightmares and began to scream.

Without missing that moment, the summoned monsters bit them.

[You’re doing pretty well now.]

Zofos, who watched me handle the elements, praised me.

“Are you surprised? I thought you were stingy with compliments?”

When I asked, Zofos laughed in his characteristic grim voice.

[hahahahaha, that’s when I didn’t acknowledge you.]

“So you’re saying you fully acknowledge it now?”

[joy! But don’t be arrogant.]

After speaking bluntly, Zofors disappeared again.

During training, I was curious and asked the elements.

Elements, not spirits, exist everywhere, but where do you, the masters, go and appear?

At that time, the force responded as a representative.

[The spirits have their own world called the spirit realm, but we are our world and home everywhere. However, as long as the contract with the person we choose is maintained, we will be with that person’s heart.]

In a word, it was that I was holding a base for my mana rings.

It was also the reason why the circle became more heavy as we started communicating with them.

Chow! Kiak!

At that time, a huge scorpion appeared from the ground to avoid the monsters and attacked me.

I dodged somersaults to avoid the scorpion’s pincers and tail, and pulled out Yggdrasilian.

Chew!

I cut off the claws and tail of the scorpion, then cut the body in two.

Kiek!

I shouted a death cry and climbed onto the limp scorpion’s corpse. I raised Yggdrasilian and shouted the name of the skill.

“Elemental fusion!”

The other swords were quickly destroyed, but Yggdrasilian endured all of them no matter how much elemental fusion was used.

Soon, the six colorful elements gathered into the sword body.

The elemental fusion that even the elements of darkness joined together brightened the surroundings with a brilliant crystal light.

“Monster legion, step back!”

At my command, the monsters all retreated behind me.

When my summoned beasts suddenly retreated, I powerfully cut my sword across the side toward the monsters in the desert who were bewildered.

Then, an aura of dazzling crystal light was shot from the sword in the shape of a huge crescent moon.

It was an application of sending out the aura that Charleigh had taught her.

Cuguaguagua!

The aura of crystal light that flew through the air with a terrifying sound slashed everything in front of it and moved forward.

And after a while, the monsters shouted their dying words and all began to break into two pieces.

Kiek!

Wow!

Training performance in the mountains was satisfactory.

From noble mtl dot com

Now, even if you use such a large skill, the amount of mana was sufficient.

It already exceeded the mana amount of the 8th circle master.

The way to increase the amount of mana beyond the circle was told by a wizard who had newly learned through the Link Master ability.

He introduced himself as a retired 9th Circle Master Mage.

He seemed a bit like an eccentric wizard, but since he was also acquainted with Penzaric and Gilliant, I accepted it to some extent.

Besides that, I was able to learn numerous skills from over a hundred people.

Koo Goo Goo.

It seemed as if an earthquake was happening in the area as the monsters constantly fell.

By the time the rising sand dust had faded, human silhouettes began to appear.

I heard that there are only monsters, but humans?

I looked back, but the guards all looked at the situation ahead with stiff faces.

I looked forward again and began to examine the identity of the silhouette.

Eventually, the dust cleared and the true figure was revealed: a woman with platinum blonde hair and clinging to a leather outfit.

She stopped about a hundred meters from me.

“what? I thought Yanden was back, but who are you?”

Yanden?

The woman who asked while licking her lips definitely mentioned Yanden.

He was the master of the summoning skill I am currently using.

“Seeing that you know Yanden, are you also a demon?”

At my question, the woman put her hand to her mouth and gave me a surprised expression.

The exaggerated action seemed to be acting on purpose.

“Oh, did you meet Yanden? Do you know that he is also a demon? what? what? Could it be that Yanden taught me this technique? Are you a demon too?”

I raised my sword nervously at the rapid-fire questions.

Listening to the contents, it seemed that she was also a demon.

“met. This skill was obtained by killing Yanden. Now I ask, I know you are a demon. But why did the demons appear from the eastern side?”

She giggled at my question, and her eyes began to turn black.

“You mean that? You said you killed Yanden? Then, I, Prelia, the commander of the white flames, will avenge Yanden.”

After speaking, the woman’s body began to burn with white flames.

The momentum I felt from her seemed weaker than that of Kerouin, if I had to put it into words.

However, it was a hot and strong energy that could never be ignored.
