EP.372 Where we arrived

– Tsk tsk tsk… … !

“what-”

As Blanc was accustomed to always drawing the worst cards, it was only natural that he would now prepare for the worst.

The worst that could happen now was that the executioners waiting in line would be delayed… so Blanc had asked Nelivia to prepare in advance so that he could finish one off the moment the battle began.

In this case, it was a freezing technique that took hold in the sword and rode up the enemy’s sword at the moment of impact, freezing the sword and hand.

As the spell was activated, freezing the executioner’s sword and hands, Blanc, who had long since let go of the silver sword, quickly extended his left hand towards the neck.

Even though his opponent was no easy feat, he twisted his body to avoid the vital points, even if it meant losing one of his frozen arms.

Thanks to this, Blanc’s left hand grabbed the shoulder instead of the neck, and the executioner immediately took out the dagger with his right hand so that he could continue the counterattack.

Once in his hands, the battle was over.

Boom!! Blanc lifted the executioner by the shoulders and swung with all his might, slamming his head into the wall.

The impact was so severe that the stone walls caved in and some collapsed. Given their durability, they would not be able to get up for a while, let alone die.

‘In battles between those who have reached a certain level, a single mistake can determine victory or defeat.’

If he hadn’t been able to kill the dagger that was aimed at his neck in that brief moment, it would have been Blanc who lost.

I quickly wiped away the drop of blood that had flowed from the tip of my neck.

Blanc retrieved the frozen silver sword from the drooping executioner’s hand and immediately surveyed the battle situation.

What happened to the other blue enforcers who were running towards him?

First, the one on the left was Yael, who grabbed the sword with her claws in the middle and overwhelmed it in an instant, shaking its body and biting it like wolves do when dealing with prey.

Of course. If you are the de facto leader of a race blessed with power, you should be able to do that.

I don’t know, but if you just look at physical strength, wouldn’t he be better than Blanc?

And the other one… is also being fought by Thirasia.

Just looking at the silver wolf dancing gracefully while casting magics reminiscent of the light of the full moon around it was a feast for the eyes.

This side seemed almost equal to the successful raid by Thirasia, but on the other hand, if either side joined in, the result would be immediate.

So what’s left are the white executors… … .

– Bang! Ta-tang! Ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!!

“Blah… blah… …! I can’t hold on! How long do I have to hold on!!”

“hmm.”

Nellyvia, who had spread her protective shield, was crying.

After smiling faintly at the sight, which was both unique and cute, Blanc quickly joined forces with Yael to deal with one of the blue enforcers who was fighting against Tirassia.

At the same time, Nellyvia released the cracked shield as if it was too much to handle… but the vanguard had already been defeated.

There was nothing special to say about what happened next.

Their most powerful weapon, the gun, is impervious to the presence of a shield, and even though they outnumber them slightly, their individual strength is inferior to that of the blue enforcers.

With the two leaders of the werewolves by your side, how could you possibly lose?

“Ugh, ugh… … .”

“… … These guys, no matter how much I think about it, their handling is a bit strange. It’s like dealing with soulless people.”

“But is that all? It’s so much easier than I feared, it’s ominous.”

“That’s why you should always deploy your best forces to your most important targets.”

Blanc muttered in the afterglow of victory after stunning the last white enforcer with a pommel.

If only he and Nellyvia had come here, or if they had brought other werewolves with them, how many variables would have occurred…?

Anyway, with this, all the obstacles blocking the entrance to the prison were eliminated.

There was no reason to delay, so just as he was about to cut open the door with his sword, Yael, unable to bear it any longer, slammed the door open and stormed in.

“Yaul!!”

“Sister Tricia!!”

The two werewolves ran into the prison, calling out their family’s names in sorrow.

“Yaul, my Yaul! Please answer me… Oh, thank goodness, she’s just asleep… Yes… After going through so much, it’s understandable that she’d be tired… … !”

The werewolves inside were probably put to sleep by some kind of drug to keep them from running wild, so few voices returned, and even those that did were hazy or weak.

It wasn’t very good news for someone who had to escape with them… but it was much better than being tortured in the meantime.

“… … Thirasia. Did you come to save us? I, I… All I did was blame you for being incompetent… … .”

“What’s important right now!? Come on, get up quickly! We have to join up with those up there! Brother-in-law, get up too!!”

“I confirmed that all sixteen people who were taken away are safe! About half of them can move on their own!”

“What should I do with the remaining half?”

“I can carry this much! Now, let’s get out of this boil-like place on your dick!!”

Blanc let out a deep sigh of relief as he saw Yael and Tirasya gather up the captured people and escape.

Up until here… somehow everything went well. Everything went according to plan. I didn’t know it would turn out this well. I’m really glad… … .

… … But we can’t let our guard down yet. The real problem starts after we lead them back up.

Whether you immediately retreat after completing your objective or prioritize slowing down the pursuit by taking out all the executors, there will inevitably be casualties.

So what I have to do from now on is to reduce the number of victims as much as possible.

The best thing would be to behead the Archbishop so he can’t do anything weird anymore.

As the werewolf adjutant said, it would be nice to kill him by biting him before he even gets there, but realistically, that would be difficult.

If you can hide yourself again using Thirasia’s magic and join your adjutant to kill him by surprise.

Anything can be done by losing the commander and being confused… Okay. Next course of action is to go with a decapitation operation.

But in order to do that, we first need to figure out where the guy is. Because we need to run to him without any delay the moment we leave this building.

How will the above situation turn out… … .

After a quick thought, Blanc closed his eyes for a moment and placed his ear against the wall, concentrating all his senses on hearing.

Above the countless sounds of human and wolf footsteps, the sound of claws and weapons clashing, shouts and screams could be heard.

and…….

– Oh my god… Oh my god! What the hell are those things!!

Someone’s desperate voice was heard.

… …was not human.

– Why… why are these things popping up now? It’s strange, it doesn’t make sense… … !

– Don’t let up! Get your mind together! What will the captain think when he sees this?!!

– But, but… that’s… … !

Blanc had already guessed that it would be a classic, but he frowned when he heard voices that were quite different from what he had expected.

It seems like they’re being pushed back… ‘Those things’ ‘popped out’? Did new reinforcements arrive on the Executor’s side?

If that’s true, isn’t the timing bad enough? It’s just that key forces are missing while rescuing the hostages…

Anyway, the situation didn’t sound good. I should go up there right away-

– That’s all for your evil deeds, monsters!!

Blanc’s movements to lift his ear from the wall stopped.

No, it wasn’t just the silk movements.

The moment I heard that young voice, I felt as if my body, breathing, thinking, and even my heartbeat had stopped for a moment.

It was inevitable.

If his prediction was correct, the ‘reinforcements’ that had just arrived up there were the worst possible beings.

Not only the tall ones, but even the hated nemesis Iscariot and the unknown evil shoemaker dare not compare him to him in fear.

The worst fear a monster could ever have.

An out-of-the-ordinary being whose mere presence there makes it seem plausible that an entire race has gone extinct.

Blanc knew of its existence.

Even though she was much younger than I remembered, there was no mistaking that voice.

Its name is──

– First Decree! Execute the monster in front of you immediately!!

– Mephisto, the White Executor! Even though I was chasing ‘one’… Now that I have seen the sin of evil persecuting good!

– As Yul wishes, I will join the battlefield!!

“no…….”

The nightmare has arrived.
