I Became a Shaman in a Fantasy World - Chapter 51
Only Noblemtl
#51 General (3)
“The investigation is not over yet.”
A paladin was speaking to the crystal ball.
– The battle is already in full swing.
“I guess we’ll have to wait since the work isn’t over yet.”
Even with the urgent voices echoing from the crystal ball, the paladin’s attitude was relaxed.
– Can you join us before more enemy forces arrive?
“Hmm… I guess it might be possible by then.”
The lights in the Sujeong-gu disappeared after the words, “Please join us quickly.”
Aluard screamed in anger.
“We have to go quickly!”
“It’s impossible.”
“How can the Paladins just sit back and do nothing while fighting the undead?”
“There was no order from the church.”
“profit…!”
Aluard kicked the ground roughly.
“Did you even intend to join in the first place? If this was going to happen, why did you say you would join?”
Their attitude was enough to make Aluard think this way.
Because they were too relaxed for the situation to be urgent.
“The judgment on heresy is not over.”
Aluard turned his head.
Heretic Inquisitor Dawnon.
It was a priest who came here leading the knights.
“Chris is not a heretic!”
“It remains to be seen. Even if you are a candidate for the Pope, this fact remains unchanged.”
Aluard couldn’t stand the frustration.
How many people will die?
If the priests just infused them with divine power, the number of casualties would be greatly reduced.
“If you won’t go, I’ll have to go too.”
“That’s impossible too.”
“Do you intend to let people die? If you are truly priests, you cannot do this!”
“We came to protect you, not to fight you.”
Aluard’s face was distorted horribly.
Look at what I just said.
As expected, I had no intention of joining from the beginning.
“How….those who worship God…”
I knew that there were forces within the church that were blinded by greed.
Even so, shouldn’t you do the basics as a priest?
Allure’s hands trembled as Dawnon continued speaking.
“In addition, trials will also be held against those who participated in heresy.”
“under…”
There was no sign of communication.
This is a time-critical situation.
At that moment, Aluard turned his head towards the sky, feeling the energy.
“….!!!”
Blurry shapes fill the sky.
Spectre and Banshee.
They were ghost-like undead.
“I have to go now…I have to go now!”
It was obvious how the battle would turn out if those undead joined in.
Specters and Banshees cannot be defeated by normal means.
Attacks are only possible with a sword or magic imbued with mana.
Ordinary soldiers were unable to even attack unless they had a weapon imbued with divine power.
“They have already prepared countermeasures, including our forces!”
“I say again, this is impossible without the permission of the church.”
“….Don’t even think about stopping me!”
Aluard kicked the ground and ran away.
I couldn’t watch any longer.
I had to go even if I had to go alone.
But Allure’s actions were quickly stopped.
The knights stood in his way.
“If you continue to rebel, I will have no choice but to tie you up.”
“Th…Th…Are you priests who serve God and do that?”
“No action is possible without the orders of the church.”
In that moment, Allure’s reaction became silent.
Aluard looking at the distant sky.
Wherever the knights turned their gaze following Aluard, there was a spirit.
A spirit in the form of a giant bird carrying a person.
Aluard’s mouth opened.
“…Chris?”
***
Screams were heard everywhere, and the sound of guns being fired was resounding.
Even in the midst of the chaos, it was quiet where Clocell and the wizards were.
“at last…”
Clocell spoke quietly and gazed at the sky.
Was it greedy to want to end up as a skeleton?
Clocell, who saw the undead flying across the sky, began to gather mana.
All the times I’ve saved mana up until now were because of those things.
“The knights aren’t coming. We have to deal with them all.”
“Yes, Clocell.”
“Everyone, pour out your magic with all your might.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Clocell’s magic burst out.
Hwaruruk –
A flame that spreads widely, lighting up the sky.
The sight created by the 7th Circle magic even distracted the soldiers who were fighting.
Kwaaang –
Magic burst from the sky, hitting Spectre and Banshee.
At the same time, an ear-scraping scream spread throughout the battlefield.
It was the cry of the banshees.
The soldiers who heard the sound began to become confused.
“Cover your ears…cover your ears!”
A bewildered voice leaked out from the mouth of the soldier who was cowering, desperately covering his ears.
“Uh…uh…?”
It was because the condition of the comrade who had been fighting next to me until just now was strange.
A dazed expression, as if one had lost one’s mind.
A face that seems to have forgotten even fear.
His colleague was walking ahead.
Even though he was injured by the skeleton’s attack, he did not stop.
“Do you know…?”
I called my colleague’s name, but there was no answer.
At the following scene, the soldier cowered even more and covered his ears.
His colleague jumped out of the wall with a dazed look on his face.
“Stop it…!”
The number of soldiers moving to jump has increased.
They all had their eyes wide open.
They weren’t the only ones at risk.
The soldiers who had been covering their ears began to lose their sight one by one, and those who had held out until the end were killed by the skeletons because they could not use their hands.
moment.
Saaaa –
The soldiers woke up as the mana spread so clearly that it could be felt through their bodies.
“Ugh…!”
“Why me…!”
Mana spread everywhere, awakening the soldiers from the banshee’s charm.
It was magic performed by the wizards waiting next to Clocell.
“Fight again…again!”
“The wizards are helping us!”
Kwaaaaang –
Magic that explodes from the sky.
And the sound of the banshee’s cry is heard without fail.
Each time, magic awakened the soldiers’ spirits.
The magic that colored the sky was a magic that belonged solely to Clocell.
Clocell cast his spell and winked at the wizards.
“The Specters will attack soon. Take them out first!”
Access had to be prevented as much as possible.
Now, we can no longer expect help from the knights and priests.
Anyone who couldn’t control mana was annihilated.
“An undead of this scale…”
The number was larger than expected.
I had to conserve my mana, but I couldn’t.
Because if we don’t stop them right now, it’s meaningless.
Clocell gathered mana with all his might and cast a spell.
Fire rained down from the sky, and lightning flashed.
Many monsters were defeated, including the undead in the sky and those approaching the walls, but their numbers were still high.
The current balance will collapse as soon as the mana runs out.
“Wizards, spread out and stop the undead!”
The wizards scattered throughout the castle walls at Clocell’s words.
It was already a mess there.
“Cough…!”
The body of the soldier who stabbed the Spectre with his spear was torn apart.
Other soldiers approached brandishing their weapons, but the result was the same.
The spears they risked their lives for only passed through Specter’s body.
It didn’t cause any damage.
“S…save me…!”
The knight was clinging to the opponent, but the skeletons rushed into the knight’s empty space.
It was natural that the soldiers who were barely holding on were pushed back.
In an instant, the area on the castle wall became a battlefield.
The soldiers who had been holding out became corpses, and other corpses were piled on top of them.
Clocell trembled at the sight.
If the priests had given them divine powers, they would not have died so vainly.
Skeletons and such would have been much easier to block than they are now.
“I will never trust the church again…”
Kwaaang –
I turned my head after drinking heavily and saw my friend struggling alone.
If it weren’t for his efforts to block the castle gates alone, the castle would have already fallen.
As soon as the skeletons reach the gates, the necromancers will use their magic.
“…”
Clocell and Paramon’s faces were dark.
The tide was already turning.
It seemed impossible to hold out until reinforcements from a nearby territory arrived.
“Even retreating…will be difficult.”
If you pull back the soldiers, the undead will immediately come face to face with the evacuating townspeople.
They had to buy some time until they could reach another territory.
At that moment, Clocell was trying to gather mana.
A faint sound was heard from the sky.
Daughter –
“….!!!”
Clocell wasn’t the only one who heard that sound.
Paramon, who was swinging his sword while surrounded by the undead, also raised his head towards the sky.
“chris…?”
Daughter –
The sound of the bell rang clearly, and the soldiers possessed by the banshee woke up.
“What…what is this…?”
The soldiers and knights looked around blankly.
Because the undead were stopped.
The undead that had been tearing people apart just a moment ago were now standing still as if it were a lie.
Daughter –
The small sound echoed so clearly throughout the battlefield.
Everyone could see it.
That what’s happening now is because of this sound.
A spirit that flies in the sky.
The sound was echoing from there.
Daughter –
Everything stopped, both above and below the walls.
Everyone was dumbfounded and looked up at the sky before this mysterious phenomenon.
Something fell from the sky and landed in front of the gate.
Thud –
Thud –
I couldn’t even see clearly what it was.
Because the size was too small.
“….tree?”
“Mom… I think the wooden statue fell.”
“…”
As everyone was looking at it, a person fell down gently between the wooden beams.
He was a young man with pure white hair.
Daughter –
A voice as clear as the sound of a bell.
The voice that started from the young man began to spread throughout the battlefield.
Daughter –
“The great general under the sky has arrived.”
Daughter –
“The female general has been kidnapped under the ground.”
Daughter –
“You demons, get out of here.”
