I Became a Madman in the Game - I Became a Madman in the Game chapter 118
Episode. 38 Giant Slayer (3)
“flaw… … A rat child.”
Moritz is my colleague.
He is the first paladin, and he is my older brother.
My heart skipped a beat when I saw him held captive by Calgos.
I could see him being swallowed up in its mouth, very slowly.
From noble mtl dot com
“Saint! It’s not possible!”
“If you leave the ranks now… … !”
I couldn’t even hear Aaron and Gide’s tearing cries.
“Horse… … .”
Only Calgos’ presumptuous madness and Moritz’s resigned prayer were heard.
And when I came back to my senses, it was after I threw myself into Calgos’ mouth.
In front of my eyes, I saw Moritz, who had been stained black by the plague.
He closed his eyes and was praying.
With a recital that was only a final goodbye.
Who dares to die at will?
“okay. Hor will save you.”
Only then did Moritz open his eyes and see me, making a noise.
I put Moritz on top of the star, holding back the giant’s teeth.
“What are you doing?!”
“… … .”
kudeudeuk-
Calgos’s teeth grew heavier.
Suddenly, my knees started to bend.
“Hey, Richard!”
Moritz’s screaming voice was heard.
Outside, the urgent voices of Aaron, Gide, and Zeke did not stop.
“sorry.”
The star carrying Moritz passed through Calgos’s mouth.
I saw the brother with a blank face slowly moving away.
It is the expression of all kinds of emotions passing by.
I didn’t expect this to happen either.
I had no regrets.
It was just that I was dumbfounded and laughed at myself for making such a choice.
I, a guy like myself, knows how to sacrifice.
Took.
At some point, my knee touched the giant’s fangs.
The space I was standing in quickly closed.
Alan was seen standing between them with a monstrous expression on his face.
‘Saint of the South. You are the hope of this war.’
When I opened my mouth like that, Alan’s eyes widened.
A light soon lit up around him.
I gave all my faith.
‘I can only do this.’
Kwadeuk-
◈ ◈ ◈
Moritz rolled to the floor and gasped for breath.
A sound more like a moan escaped from his mouth.
“no… … You can’t do this… … .”
he raised his head
His trembling gaze was directed at the giant.
『Ha ha ha… … !』
Calgos smiles with his eyes wide open as if in ecstasy.
The blood that flowed from the corner of his mouth was full of holy energy.
Holy Blood.
Acrid smoke billowed from the mouth of Calgos, who had chewed and swallowed the poisoned apple.
“Ah ah ah ah ah!!”
A desperate cry lodged in the ears of the distraught Moritz.
Aaron, who had lost his master, was his cry.
“Saint, saint… … Master Richard… … !”
The old warlord cried.
It was a silent wail.
『So vain.』
『Would there ever be another such insignificant, dog death!』
“Is this really your end, Father!”
Calgos laughed while shedding bloody tears.
“No, that is nonsense. The saint… … ?”
Confusion arose among the troops of Rio Castle, who were grappling with plague monsters.
Even with the guidance of the Lord of the Ord castle, who had barely regained consciousness, the chaos could not be put to rest.
The battlefield began to stagger with shock.
Calgos stood still as if the fight was over.
Whether it’s a rain of magic bombardment or a flurry of screaming swords from knights.
Silently, he only poured out insults toward his father with his hateful mouth that chewed up and swallowed the saint.
“… … Is he really dead?”
Alan, who had been choosing his words for a while, asked Mar.
He was biting his lips with a dry white complexion.
That was the answer to Alan’s question.
“Why… … ?”
Alan looked up at the sky.
A rival who stole Hor’s favor.
Richard was a thorn in his eye.
However, Richard’s death was not happy at all.
like… … .
“Horse, what is this feeling?”
I felt as if I had witnessed Hor’s end.
A great sense of loss afflicted him.
It was difficult to keep my composure.
If I didn’t keep my mouth shut, I felt like I would scream like the knights on the front line.
Saaa-
At that moment, light emanated from Alan’s body.
It was Hor’s power that Richard transferred before he died.
『… … !』
Calgos’ gaze turned to Alan.
“Heresy… … .”
Alan also looked at Calgos.
I buried all my doubts and confusion deep down there.
Because the war isn’t over yet.
◈ ◈ ◈
Light exploded on the battlefield filled with despair.
It was the faith that burst from Alan.
“Hor… … Horsi!”
Moritz, who was out of breath in despair, screamed.
All those who shared the joys and sorrows with Richard were like that.
please save him
That is our hope.
He prayed earnestly, but the Saint of the North did not revive.
“Calm down, idiots.”
Only Alan’s sharp vitriol, wrapped around the light, returned.
“If you guys are truly knights, take revenge on the giant who killed your lord.”
The voice that came from the fortress of the Magic Alliance was filled with faith, and it was similar to Richard’s.
The light that illuminated the chaotic battlefield was also the same as Richard’s, who had been with him many times.
So the knights stood up again.
Holding the sword and spear, he faced the giant.
A beastly roar erupted from their mouths.
It was then.
Quagga-!
A huge tree trunk rose and strangled Calgos’ leg.
“Calgos… … Calgoss!”
Adele, the World Tree of the North.
She let out a raw rage.
Then another tree trunk tied the giant’s arms.
It belonged to Mar, the World Tree of the South.
“Let’s strike down these monsters right now and take heaven’s revenge!”
The lord of the castle of Ord shouted with bulging eyes.
The war, which began with a noble mission, suddenly began to turn into a desperate revenge play.
◈ ◈ ◈
The knights fiercely attacked the titan whose limbs were tied.
Powerful magic bombarded the giant’s head nonstop.
The red skin, which had not been easily penetrated by blades, cracked open.
“Die-!!”
Moritz frantically stabbed the dagger.
Dirty, nasty blood gushed out.
『You’re making a fuss.』
The giant, covered in blood in an instant, twisted his mouth.
His insides were, in fact, full of wounds.
Richard was the master who swallowed the poisoned apple.
In addition, the light transferred to Alan by Richard further weakened Calgos.
Even so.
Calgos was relaxed.
Kwajik, Kwajik-
The trees that bound his limbs had rotted away.
The trees of the water stems rose again, but they were all cut off by the sword of plague.
『Adelgarten, Margarten… … my brothers.”
『You guys were greatly influenced by your father.』
Not paying attention to the knights who were clinging to his body and tearing at his skin, Calgoss looked at the two World Trees alternately.
『Flowers in a sunny garden.』
『You guys will never survive the winter.』
The Greatsword of Plague swung.
Aaron rolled off the ground and went off track.
However, the slash fired from the giant sword mercilessly cut through the fortress of the Magic Alliance far away.
Screams and moans erupted from everywhere.
The fortress built by the so-called wizards was like a sheet of paper to Calgos.
The two World Trees gritted their teeth.
Squeezing his soul, he spewed out the essence of life, and pulled out trees with a cloud of footsteps.
And all of them were cut with a single knife and rotted to black.
Kwagwagwang-!
At that moment, the white flame Alan had shot engulfed Calgos’s body.
It was a super-heated fire that only those in the ranks of the great mages could use.
Even Calgos couldn’t ignore the fire, which was added to the special power of faith.
coo-!
Calgos raised his momentum.
At the same time, the energy of the plague was seething, and the white flame that swallowed the body was removed.
“Keep, keug… … !”
The aura of an unclean plague covered the battlefield.
It was so terrible that even the wizards of the collapsed fortress had their skin rotted black.
Alan, frowning, brightened even more, but it was after the plague had already infected everyone.
“Damn it.”
Defeat.
Those two letters came close to me.
◈ ◈ ◈
In the midst of the haze, I blinked my eyes.
No, I was trying to blink.
For some reason, I couldn’t feel any sensation in my body.
It was as if the body itself did not exist.
‘I should have died.’
Everything is blurry, but the pain at the end was clear.
Terrible agony that the whole body was crushed in an instant.
okay. I was chewed up and swallowed by Calgos.
It was just strange to be able to maintain such a ‘thought’.
‘… … what about the guys? How did the war go?’
I was worried about my co-workers.
From noble mtl dot com
Then a strange thing happened.
I couldn’t see anything with my eyes, but the battlefield situation was drawn in my head.
I couldn’t hear anything in my ears, but I heard a desperate scourge.
‘… … .’
The battlefield could not be called good even with empty words.
I don’t know if this listed in my head right now is the truth or just a fantasy.
Crying-
My rising emotions were all telling the truth.
Moritz never stops screaming.
Aaron with huge scars on his face.
Gide and Zeke vomited blood as if they were going to collapse at any moment.
‘no.’
Soon after, the forces of Rio Castle who had dealt with the plague monsters joined the confrontation with Calgos.
The Wizards of the Magic Union also launched an all-out offensive against Calgos.
Alan, who accepted all my beliefs, fought against each other.
The original color of their skin was not visible.
I was devastated.
A single sword wielded by Calgos pulverized knights holding shields, and dozens flew away with his kicks.
The elves vomited dark red blood from the mana regurgitation.
It was no longer a battle.
It was like a massacre.
‘I am… … !’
I struggled.
I struggled with all my might with my missing hand and missing leg.
‘I’m not dead… … !’
If I was truly dead, there was no way I had a heart like this and my thoughts could not be connected.
It was then.
Saaa-
A ray of light bloomed in the pitch black darkness.
Faith, no.
It was a more auspicious and holy light than that.
that… … godhead.
It was ‘Hor’.
“I am giving you a revelation.”
『The soul that embraces the light finally has a proper place.』
『I embraced the true light by sacrificing myself.』
the godhead told me
The awe-inspiring presence gradually approached me.
Before long, he reached me.
『From the Father.』
『Through the Holy Spirit.』
pounding-
[The Deity’s interference with the soul.]
[The Spirit’s Interference with the Godhead.]
[The interference of the soul and the Godhead with the body.]
A system window popped up.
My bodily sensations began to return.
