I Became the Burden of a Conscienceless Party - I Became the Burden of a Conscienceless Party chapter 146

146 – The Protagonist (4)

Main character (4)

Kwaaah!

The battle between Legion Commander Force and Garnet left massive damage in the surrounding area just from the aftermath.

Garnet’s attack, swinging her sword of flame along with the exploding flames, caused the ground to melt and turn into a lava field, and the Force turned that lava field upside down with a single swing of its hammer.

The power of the five legion commanders who can change the surrounding environment itself.

‘Just do it like this.’

The appearance is more on Garnet’s side.

She was repeatedly launching one-sided attacks without allowing a single Force attack.

Accordingly, Force also has more wounds on its tough and hard skin.

but…….

‘But until when?’

The reason Garnet has the upper hand is because she hasn’t allowed a single attack so far.

And that means that if she gets hit with just one attack, there’s a good chance she’ll be incapacitated.

You have to avoid all attacks and whittle down your opponents. And you have to invest a considerable amount of time in whittle down your opponents.

‘Close combat was the answer, but… … .’

Garnet knew that it would take a long time to conquer the Force, so she went into close combat from the beginning.

Because if she were to pour out her firepower from a distance, her power would run out first.

So, we wanted to get maximum efficiency with minimum consumption.

In addition to her power, she used her swordsmanship to push the Force.

And the physical exhaustion wasn’t really a problem.

If that was going to be a problem in the first place, they wouldn’t have engaged in close combat.

If there is a problem… … .

‘I feel like my head is going to burst.’

It’s a question of her mental strength.

Her head, which had to dodge all attacks, was still calculating the movements of the Force, and she felt quite tired because of it.

She thought it would be okay, but the fact that she had to fight on the front line was making her feel even more exhausted than she had thought.

A hammer that looks scary. Just imagining yourself getting hit by it makes me shudder.

“Yeah, that won’t work. I guess I can’t win on my own.”

Garnet took a step back and began to breathe heavily.

A situation where I forgot to breathe in an extreme situation.

Garnet, who had given up on taking down the Force, immediately prepared to fight to tie his ankles.

She can’t win alone.

If so, you may need help.

‘If the warrior party joins, things might change.’

The plan is to first defeat Twelve and then join forces with the Force.

The plan had already been discovered by Twelve, but… … .

‘Just hold on a little longer.’

Garnet was confident that they could take down Twelve.

***

Ssssssss.

Legion Commander Twelve stood guard against the warrior party.

A situation where each party’s goals are opposed to each other.

If it’s a battlefield where the one who endures and the one who has to push through are the ones who win, then that’s what I’d like to see happen.

For Twelve, who had endured terrible school days, enduring one-sided bullying was nothing.

“How impatient! Do you think you’ll be able to accomplish anything like that?”

Twelve moved the sand, mocking Millia and Irina who were continuously pouring magic towards him.

In close combat, Tina and the extras who rush in with swords are tied up with sand, and attacks are limited by appropriately using the space between them and the rear forces.

‘Yes, dealing with multiple people is my specialty! Even Chulsoo, who grabbed my arm from behind! Even Younghee, who repeatedly beat my stomach, couldn’t kill me!’

School Days.

Even at moments when he felt like he was going to die, he survived.

But a warrior party?

Do you really think that a mere warrior party can deliver more violence than he did during his school days?

Even so, Twelve became stronger. Not physically, but mentally.

He has a heart of steel that cannot be broken by anything.

My heart, which had already been shattered to pieces during my school days. No, my heart, which had been shattered and turned into dust, has now become sand that cannot be split any further.

That was also the reason why he had a natural aptitude for sand magic.

“Hit me as much as you want! You won’t be able to knock me down with that much!”

“That’s really amazing.”

“Hmm, hmm. That’s what I am.”

People who have been subjected to long-term contempt and persecution tend to become haughty even when they receive small compliments.

Twelve chuckled at Irina’s words, which seemed to show that she was tired of it.

“Then let’s keep hitting it. Until you hear a cracking sound.”

“… … !”

Irina sneered at the sight of such a confident Twelve, and Twelve was reminded of scenes from the past when he saw Irina like that.

‘Hey, didn’t this nerd kid confess his love to me?’

The most painful memory from his school days.

A heart that is carefully packaged and delivered.

And the woman of his first love who laughed at him and bragged about his feelings to others.

“You! Absolutely! Will never! Defeat me!!”

Twelve shouted with a more sincere voice than ever before. The appealing voice made even Irina, who was leisurely preparing her divine magic, flinch.

From noble mtl dot nete

“You don’t know until you try.”

Wiggle!

Millia moved her tentacles as if to fight against Twelve’s violence.

Her omnipotent magic. A freely moving magic that can grant all kinds of magical effects to whatever it touches.

The magic begins to take a step further.

“What! A magic circle?!”

A magic circle drawn with tentacles.

It is a ritual magic of the wide-area annihilation type that can only be used in the military.

One person is doing it. He intends to destroy Twelve’s strong defenses with overwhelming firepower.

“Should I just watch that?”

The moment Twelve noticed what Millia was trying to do, he took action immediately. Not only did he move the sand to disrupt Millia, but he also caught Tina and Extra’s ankles as they tried to pierce through his sand at close range.

“If you continue the ritual, your comrades will not be safe either!”

“What a pity.”

“what…….”

Even though she was blatantly holding back two of her colleagues, Milia didn’t even blink an eye. To make matters worse, Irina, who was standing behind her, started to set up a barrier to protect her front.

A means of protecting oneself from magical shocks.

There was selfishness there, with no regard for the well-being of one’s colleagues.

“Huh?! Huh?! Are you really going to shoot?! No, you aren’t?! Millia! That’s not it?!”

Even Tina, who was holding Twelve by the ankle, was shocked when she realized that Millia was sincere.

Even so, he’s my comrade. Are you saying you’re going to blow him away with magic?

“It’s better.”

On the other hand, the extras who had already given up their lives began to prepare for the Donggwijin by carving out the sand of Twelve.

“Ugh… …! They’re such vicious b*stards!”

Twelve, who finally realized that Millia was more sincere than ever, threw the two he was holding onto far away and strengthened his defenses even more.

“uh……?”

Tina, who was instantly blown out of the magical range, looked at Twelve with a dumbfounded expression.

Even if it’s to strengthen your defenses, there’s no reason to send it this far.

Twelve saved Tina and Extra by sending them out of the magical range targeting them.

“why……?”

“The pain of being betrayed by someone you thought was a friend… is something I know all too well.”

A bond that builds rapidly.

Tina just tilts her head at the unknown reason.

Even the extras who have not yet fully recovered are lying on the floor, struggling to get up.

The strange scenery continues for a moment, and then Milia’s ritual magic is completed.

KWaaahhh!!

In the battlefield where the noise was never-ending, a louder noise than ever before erupts.

The overwhelming firepower was so shocking that even Force and Garnet, who were fighting from a distance, looked back.

Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii───

The light from Millia’s staff, which had been emitting a brilliant light, went out, and the tentacles that had been writhing strangely and forming a magic circle drooped.

A blow completed by pouring out all the mana she had.

What was left behind after that blow was a wide expanse of plain.

and…….

“Hehehehehe… … .”

Twelve survived even after being hit head-on by such ritual magic.

Twelve staggered but did not fall and glared at the warrior party.

The sand has long since all flown away.

The umbrella I usually carried around was completely blown away, revealing the blade hidden inside.

A precarious appearance, with blood flowing all over his body and looking as if he might collapse at any moment.

Yet, I felt a tremendous sense of intimidation from Twelve.

“A commander is not someone who can lead a legion… …. He is a commander because he can stop the legion alone.”

“What happened to your hair?”

Twelve, who even talks nonsense.

Irina frowned as if she was fed up with what anyone could tell was a hastily made-up story and took a step forward.

“Is there nothing more to show you? Is this the end? Are there any more crude techniques you can do!”

Twelve vented his anger as if he had suffered from one-sided violence.

It was a situation where both sides were at fault as they fought to kill each other, but in Twelve’s mind, his school days were already being replayed.

“There is more.”

“joy!”

As Irina, who had been standing at the back, took a step forward, Twelve stretched out his sword and manipulated the sand.

The sand that had flown away, unable to stop Millia’s magic, once again tightly blocks the area around him.

“Nothing will change.”

Twelve is wounded and looks like he might collapse, but nothing has changed.

Even though he’s holding a sword, he’s not a swordsman, and even though he can’t stand, he has a weapon he can swing.

Yeah, he’s a wizard.

And that is why… … .

“No, the surroundings have already changed a lot. The terrible magic has disappeared, mana has flared up, and on the contrary, divine power has been filled.”

The final destination of Irina’s plan.

Everything we did was solely to create the current ‘environment’.

A miracle recreated by Saint Irina.

Kuuu!

As Irina made a certain sign, the surrounding area began to shake.

A land contaminated with magic. The space where it is most difficult for the sacred to remain.

Her sanctuary spreads out there.

“Zhan Falun seal.”

The reason why I kept pouring out divine magic as if I was impatient.

A ritual magic that pushes away all the magic in the surrounding area and swallows up all the mana nearby.

“what……?”

Milia can’t fight anymore?

No, that’s wrong. She had no more power to do anything, so she used up all her mana to create the current situation.

The best plan. The best process. The best possible outcome.

“No magic can be performed here anymore.”

At that moment, the sand that seemed to protect General Twelve forever collapsed, revealing his pitiful appearance to the world.
