I Became the Dark Wizard Who Rules Over the Heroines - Chapter 83
83 – Flame-10
“Lilian, take Carbossa and run away as quickly as possible. You can’t fight while protecting the two of them.”
“…Yes!”
She fell behind her, holding Carbossa with the nimble movements of an elf.
Wilhelm was glaring at her, but he couldn’t move lightly either.
I was watching him too. No matter how relaxed the situation was, I didn’t think the enemy would find it bothersome to weaken himself in the situation right in front of me.
“Do you have anything to say?”
“If I leave it, will they at least remember it?”
“Of course I remember. I can’t say I remember the last words of everyone I killed, but if they’re as big a villain as you, it’s worth remembering.”
The old Heretic Questioner took a step towards me.
“Understanding what the evildoer is thinking is also a virtue that must be acquired if you want to do this job for a long time.”
“You’re so meticulous. However, if you analyze my psychology, you won’t find anything.”
I laughed and then mocked him.
“How foolish do you think I am, young warlock?”
His eyes became more serious.
“There is no way for a knight to become strong without practicing sincerely. A priest cannot receive God’s protection without praying sincerely.”
There is not a single doubt. Perhaps the princess on the verge of destruction would have looked like that if she had continued to live for several decades.
“Similarly, there is no way for evil species like you to become strong unless you sincerely commit evil deeds.”
Never doubt what you believe. Unless that belief is broken first, you won’t be able to defeat him.
“That’s a long story. Die.”
He is approaching. I poured out the magic I had prepared so far without hesitation.
“Whoa…”
A spear made of demonic energy falls towards him. Uncontrollable fire attacks him, and the earth, controlled by my demon energy, shakes.
Despite all the chaos, he walked forward with great strides.
The spider web made of dozens of layers of magic was all that controlled his movements for a brief moment.
I bit my lip tightly and began to think about the situation.
‘How to kill Wilhelm…’
Jungseok just confronts him with the party.
No matter how difficult a boss is, there is no boss that does not have a way to clear it. Kazott’s executives were no different.
What he meant by concentrating his entire power to kill the ‘warlock’ was, on the other hand, meaning that against beings that were not warlocks, he was just an ordinary knight who was strong, had excellent swordsmanship, and was a strong knight.
‘Still, I’m not at a level where I can compete with him right now…’
At that level, I can easily deal with a party of my level if they gather together.
As long as Olivia stands in the front line, I distract him and cast some lethal spells, Claire assists our team, and Kellin targets his back.
But, I couldn’t do that now.
I have to take all of his attacks. There was no Claire to heal his wounded body, and there was no Olivia to fight him sword to sword several times.
‘In the end, there is only one way.’
“It’s over now. Stop dying!”
When he was about five steps away, his body shot out like a bullet.
“Sigh!”
Avoided. However, there was no way he could avoid it forever.
There are limits to moving my body with magic energy.
“Is that all?”
“This was just an exploratory battle.”
“Unless you want to search until daybreak, you need to be sure.”
You have to fool him. It must be induced to make the wrong choice.
“Is that not possible? When the sun rises and people begin to realize the evil deeds they thought you had committed… My reinforcements will come, but your reinforcements will not.”
“…Really?”
I smiled as meanly as I could.
“Do you think I came here alone… No, I only brought that party?”
“…!”
My identity is shrouded in mystery.
Nobody knows. How did Wade, who was one of the heirs of an ordinary nobleman, learn black magic, what demon did he contract with, and what strategy did he use to gain such strong power?
The hypothesis that ‘I don’t know why, but somehow I gained strong power’ was lazy. There was no way that people as high as Kazot executives would have believed such words.
They want a hypothesis that is more accurate and can explain events more clearly. Even if it is a hypothesis that contradicts the truth.
“The person behind you…”
There were many possibilities that could be imagined.
You could think that a lich who had been hiding underground had appointed an agent, or you could have thought that an evil dragon-like entity that had no interest in the affairs of the world had sent out the guardian.
Either way, there was a good possibility that wasting time might not necessarily be the solution for them.
“But, if Kazot goes ahead with his plan his-“
“Ah, you mean Katharine.”
“…!”
“Who do you think Kelin is going to now?”
His eyes are shaking. I realized that the plan was half-successful.
Even if Katharine cooperates with Khazot, not everyone in Khazot will trust Katharine.
If she’s a warlock like Kellin, she’s a warlock that even Wilhelm, who has hunted many warlocks, knows, even if not everyone knows about it.
If it was fragmentary information, such as the fact that she was Katharine’s subordinate, there was a possibility that she knew.
“Do you think there is a possibility that that ‘sin’ could be used for Kazot?”
And, considering Catherine’s personality and Wilhelm’s personality, it was difficult to expect that there would have been much conversation between the two.
They wouldn’t have been able to trust each other. It would not have been trustworthy.
“Like you said, I’m a warlock too.”
“…You’re trying to deceive me with nonsense.”
“If you had any thoughts, you should have felt strange. In the first place, how did I know that Katharine was here?”
A clear suspicion rose in Wilhelm’s eyes.
“But, even if everything you said was true… There would be no reason for you to tell me that.”
“Because I was planning to stab you in the back. Do you really think I would need that power in the first place?”
Once again, it emits magical energy.
There was a good reason for him to be convinced that I was a villain.
Just as there would be no one who would believe a person with blood all over his body, or a person with flesh and oil on his sword, even if he said, ‘I didn’t kill anyone,’ there is no way that a person with this much magical power would not have committed an evil deed. It will.
And that again adds strength to my words.
“To be honest, the quality is not that good. This level of slaughter is not even good. Katharine wanted this plan, but I… It is not a necessary strategy. Now, killing people is not a good idea. .”
“Do you mean good intentions?”
“I always acted with good intentions. I didn’t do anything that would prick my conscience, and I didn’t kill many people.”
“…”
“If I were to be honest, you probably killed a lot more people and tried to kill me.”
Even as the conversation continued, battles and defenses were constantly taking place.
He moved his feet and swung his sword to chase me. I erected a nearby burnt tree to block it, or poured magic energy on my legs and fell backwards.
My attacks also continued. I used every black magic I knew to suppress him.
Despite this, he showed no signs of fatigue.
“Evil must disappear, no matter what sacrifices it entails.”
Know. Like all people, he had his own story. There was a narrative.
“You have no idea how a single act of mercy, a little tolerance for evil, can lead to terrible consequences. No, you probably didn’t even care about that in the first place.”
“Well, it’s not like I haven’t seen situations where tolerance leads to tragedy… But it’s usually the opposite.”
“If you’re going to continue to call yourself a good person… That’s fine. God will judge, not me.”
His sword shined.
A huge and brilliant light shone bright enough to drive away all the darkness of the night.
‘…It’s done!’
I nodded to myself. The provocation was successful.
“If you at least want to claim that the hypocrisy and lies you believe are the truth, don’t run away this time.”
An attack filled with mortal power used by the Heretic Questioner.
I was preparing to use ‘condemn’.
“Of course.”
The Heretic Questioner’s sacred power is focused on defense rather than attack.
Like the hard and heavy armor they wear, they use most of their divine power to protect themselves from all harm and magic inflicted by the villain rather than defeating the villain with a single attack.
However, that cannot happen the moment you use it. It is that powerful and that extreme of a technology.
“Sometimes, take it!”
He comes running. I didn’t dodge, but on the contrary, I ran towards him.
In his right hand, he holds an incredibly powerful dagger and is full of magical energy.
“Oh, I think so.”
Wilhelm’s sword lost its shape at some point and became a ray of light.
That light pierced my heart.
