Became a Villain in Romance Fantasy - Became a Villain in Romance Fantasy chapter 35
35- Sanctuary Attack (5)
“Lucia.”
“…Yes.”
“Is the god you worship all like that?”
“I’ve never seen anything like that before.”
Since Lucia was already showing exhaustion just by releasing the barrier in the boss room, her further investigation was postponed until later.
Anyway, the guy in front of me looked like the final boss of a horror game.
I felt a strong sense of rejection at the sight of hundreds of blinking eyes attached to its huge body.
The multiple tentacles wriggling from its body boasted the size of a truck, one by one.
‘There was definitely a feeling that the passageway itself went underground. I didn’t know there would be such a huge space.’
“Why are you here!”
As I was about to run towards him, something grabbed my leg.
It was Leon’s arm, where even his body, where only bones remained, began to crumble.
“I was just worried about the reward I would get from getting rid of him.”
“…You are a wonderful person.”
“Is there any problem if I kill him?”
“…Yes, please.”
“Okay.”
I left Leon behind and walked forward.
I felt something distinctly different from the tension I felt in the battles so far.
It wasn’t an opponent I could overwhelmingly beat, and it wasn’t an opponent I could beat with my hands like Gabi.
“Lucia. How many arrows can you shoot with that arrow from last time?”
“Probably four rounds is the limit.”
Four shots were enough to distract him.
“But you…”
“What is it?”
“Why don’t you just run away with Leon? That looks a bit risky.”
For the first time, Lucia showed fear of her enemies. She, who has the personality of committing and watching for a while, brought out her retreat.
“Couldn’t it be… Is it because you’re scared right now?”
“It’s not like that, since I don’t know how strong the enemy is, I meant to promise it later…”
“I can’t help but laugh at the fact that a saintess is trying to run away.”
“It can’t be helped! But they were once equal to the gods we worship?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“I’m really going to die. No matter how hard I am, I’m going to die with incurable injuries.”
While listening to Lucia’s words, she cut off the tentacles that came flying from time to time.
When I looked closely at her, I saw her eyes twitching. Indeed, she looked terrified.
From Lucia’s point of view, it must be the first time she has directly faced the existence of God. She had expected this kind of reaction.
“Who am I?”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“I asked who I was.”
“That’s…A vicious and shameless man…Laplace, Duke of the Empire.”
“Do you think I will die easily?”
“…Just try to die.”
Divine power began to gather in Lucia’s hands. Before she knew it, she had a longbow in her hand that exceeded her height.
“Please shoot at the right time.”
“If you don’t tell me, I’ll take care of it.”
Leaving behind Lucia who turned her head with a tick tick, she slowly raised her mana.
A thunderclap that could not be heard in the basement began to rumble loudly.
“You’re using a strange technique for a mortal subject.”
“Mortals, mortals. Do your kind have nothing to offer but immortality? No, you weren’t immortal anymore.”
“You dare!”
Two tentacles hit the spot where I was.
One was easily dodged, but the rest of the tentacles got entangled in the dodging spot.
He swung his sword once. The severed tentacles fluttered and sprayed black liquid.
Like the guys I saw when I first entered the sanctuary, the opponent instantly created three tentacles from the cut end.
‘For those who play…’
Games, novels, myths.
Throughout all of this, there was only one magic potion for those who regenerate.
Burning with fire.
Severed the tentacles with the lightning-infused sword.
At the same time, a large amount of electricity was discharged, applying a temperature above the ignition point to the opponent’s tentacles.
Tadak-.
The sound of sparks could be heard, and flames rose from the cut surface.
“For mortal subjects… You dare!”
It was the guy who was playing right away at the point of being cut off, but it looked like he couldn’t regenerate the parts that were on fire.
‘Correct answer.’
The suspiciously wide cavity was enough space for me to run away and launch an attack.
The opponent couldn’t keep up with my speed.
The tentacle flew right in front of me, but the sword containing the thunderbolt only managed to cut through it with ease.
Huge tentacles parted, and hundreds of small attacks flew.
Because I couldn’t parry or dodge all the attacks, blood splattered all over my body.
The wounds were enough to make me feel pain normally. But as if it wasn’t my body, the body continued to move nonstop.
‘Ah. I can’t avoid that.’
As I was running on his tentacles, an unexpected attack came.
Instant death if hit. Even if it wasn’t for that, it was certain that he would fall under the curse Leon had spoken of.
“Laplace!”
With Lucia’s cry, an explosion occurred in front of her eyes.
Nice.
It was support that came at the right time.
**
‘One step left.’
Obviously Laplace said he could easily win. But how is the situation now?
Laplace, who bled to an extent that wouldn’t be strange even if he died from excessive bleeding, me, who couldn’t do much using most of my holy power, and a dying Death Knight.
It was all his fault.
Since I was kicked by him, I have been doing saintly things that are not suited to my aptitude, so I guess I really thought I was the perfect saint.
“Saint.”
From noble mtl dot com
“Be patient. After the battle, I have something to tell you.”
Leon started talking to me from the side, but just helping Laplace fight was too much for him.
“That’s not it. There might be a way to win.”
How to win?
Of course there is a way. It’s a problem because it seems impossible for Laplace to hack and kill that monster.
“What is that?”
I didn’t think that he, who was talented enough to serve as the commander of the Holy Knights in the past, would talk useless in such an urgent situation.
“At this rate, Laplace, who uses the technique to prevent the enemy from regenerating, will be the first to go to the bottom.”
“First of all, we have to stop playback, so there’s nothing we can do about it.”
I hung the last arrow I made on the string. I parried the attack that flew into Laplace’s blind spot.
“You can use the holy sword.”
“A holy sword?”
“The sword that fell over there is actually a circular holy sword.”
“Yes?”
A circular holy sword.
A holy sword said to have been used by a hero who was chosen by an ancient god to build a temple that served as the foundation of the Holy Kingdom.
It was the basic form of all holy swords, and it was said to be no longer on earth.
“Is it here?”
“Time is running out to go into detail.”
“But… The Holy Sword cannot be used by those who do not have the aptitude for it.”
The imitation used by Kael, who was actually a fake hero, was in fact not a holy sword, but a sword that was simply ignorantly beaten with a blessing that raised simple ability points.
An item that can only be handled by being recognized by the gods.
Leon was the leader of the Order of the Holy Knights, so he had to be able to handle the divine power the best he could, so even if it was possible, it was impossible for Laplace.
“No. I’m sure he can use the holy sword.”
Leon’s eyes looking at me were full of confidence.
**
“Kuk.”
The uncut tentacle flew to the side. I blocked a direct hit with my sword, but I couldn’t stop the gigantic mass energy.
I fell down towards the floor.
And then the opponent’s attack.
Boom!
It was Lucia’s barrier that prevented them.
“Lucia?”
It was definitely Lucia who was supporting her from behind.
“It’s dangerous. What are you here for?”
I was more worried than happy. Although it was possible for me to endure it to some extent, Lucia’s fragile body would turn into a lump of her meat if allowed to attack even once.
“I asked.”
Leon, who was barely standing behind me using his sword as a staff, spoke to me.
“What are you thinking?”
“There is a way to defeat him.”
“How..?.”
I wasn’t in a position not to listen while acting strangely. The current battle was a war of attrition, and it was only natural that I would fall first if it continued like this.
“I won’t explain it at length. This sword is a holy sword. Fight with it.”
Leon passed the sword he was holding to me.
It was a rather plain sword with black decorations.
But even if this sword was a holy sword, there was a problem.
The holy sword is a sword that can only be wielded by those with the qualifications.
Precisely, it was a sword for God’s faithful slaves.
“It’s impossible for me.”
“It is possible.”
It was something even Angelica, the main character of the original, couldn’t do, but Leon just told me that it was possible.
If you fail, you will be at least unable to fight.
It was a gamble with too much risk.
“Daddy, hurry up. I don’t think I can take it anymore!”
Cracks began to form in Lucia’s barrier.
I had never had a religion in my previous life, and I had never paid a dime to a temple here either.
Nevertheless, the idea that it is possible momentarily popped into my head.
I poured mana into her holy sword.
The whole body’s mana ran rampant to imprint that the holy sword’s owner had changed.
It was obviously impossible.
A holy sword that can only be used when approved by those with divine status…
-Nuna, are you the first human to admit you?
Dragon Road.
-And this is really precious~
Gabi’s blood that remained in his body flowed out from holes in his body.
-Your sister is a great dragon who has fought and won against the gods, but you gave special consideration to it.
Dragon’s own dragon magic was engraved on the holy sword.
Let’s swing the holy sword once.
The enemy’s tentacles exploded all at once.
