5 Thinning (4)

A forest in Hwangseong, a little far from Chimseonggung.

Knight Alex, who was secretly guarding at a distance from Chimseonggung under the orders of Iveline Agnes, suddenly had a questionable expression on the red light emanating from Chimseonggung.

“ What is that?”

The light that came out from the dance hall and gradually covered the entire palace.

Could it be because of the color?

Alex’s eyebrows furrowed slightly at the ominous feeling of the light.

“ I don’t know. It looks like magic… … I don’t think there was an attack.”

The lieutenant, who had been listening to Alex’s words, responded by listening to the sound coming from the palace side.

If there was an attack, there should be several battle sounds, including the clash of weapons, but none of that was heard.

“ Um… … Do I have to report?”

So Alex was also hesitant to report to the superiors.

It was a report that went into the ears of the ‘Lion Princess’.

I didn’t want to bother him with useless content.

But his thoughts were soon changed by a single sound.

hey hey hey!

A reverberation filled with eerie feeling as if the lungs themselves were being cut out.

Do demons that climbed out of hell make these sounds?

Alex, who shook his hand at the instinctive rejection he felt, opened his mouth to the lieutenant.

“ Let the upper-level know right now.”

“ I see.”

The lieutenant immediately bowed his head, thinking that he could not delay the time.

Alex, who looked at the lieutenant’s back for a moment, also began to move toward Chimseonggung.

* * *

colored blotch.

The effect of this magic circle that Shion had completed with Priscilla was simple.

It reveals the true form of the ‘enemy’ within a certain range.

Two years later, before the outbreak of the full-scale war, humans developed this magic circle to thin out the ‘enemy’ that had already been mixed with them countless times and saw its effectiveness.

woah ah.

Shion, who was looking at the group of people who were gradually emitting a red light, opened his mouth to Priscilla, who was standing next to him with a puzzled expression on his face.

“ I need your blood.”

“… … yes?”

Starting with the magic circle, Priscilla questioned Shion, who was only making unfamiliar sounds, but she did not answer.

“ One drop is enough.”

Just look ahead with your eyes shining.

After shaking her head a couple of times, Priscilla made a slight cut on the tip of her finger and dropped a drop of blood in the center of the magic circle.

That moment.

hey hey hey hey!

A horrifying scream came from the place where the servants had gathered.

When Priscilla takes a step back due to her instinctive rejection.

“I found it.”

A low voice came out of Shion’s mouth.

In Shion’s eyes, it is Baren, the deputy chief of Chimseonggung.

No, it was originally Baren, and it was roaring with a mournful face that was no longer considered a human being.

Tentacles exploding from his body and bizarrely twisted arms and legs.

“ I, what is that… … What?”

“ Enemy.”

Shion gave a brief answer to Priscilla’s question, who had turned white at the instrument emitted by the monster.

That was the true ‘enemy’ of the chronicles of Flosimar’s heroes, including mankind.

Monster (魔物).

It refers to all beings inhabiting the demon realm, such as demons, demons, and human beings, and exudes hostility to all living creatures except demons.

The one who served the Demon King and destroyed the world.

‘I was also here.’

The monsters in the Flosimar Chronicle were very precise.

Decades before the war, he hid in the world at the command of the Demon King and slowly ate the human race.

The techniques of the demons were very clever, and that’s why mankind swept them and killed each other without noticing it until just before the war.

In the end, mankind chose the path of self-destruction and the world was destroyed.

‘ One of the lower ranks.’

Looking at the demon with its true form, Shion thought.

Since Chimseonggung had almost no influence in the first place, it was likely that only one low-ranking demon had been planted.

No, it was right that you should be surprised at the precision of the magic that has planted monsters up to this point.

hey hey!

At that moment, the screaming monster began to rush towards Priscilla.

“ Why, why me… … !”

Unlike her, who makes a embarrassed expression, Sion calmly starts to light up the darkness.

It was planned for a demon to attack her.

Her blood, which was named Magic Blood (魔血), was like a heavenly elixir to the demons.

One year from now, Priscilla is abducted by demons due to the demon blood flowing through her body, and then becomes unable to live or die and supplies blood.

It was for that reason that she was called the ‘ Princess of Misfortune’.

If you mix Priscilla’s blood like that, the effect of the Red Circle, which normally only searches for low-level monsters, is maximized, and even intermediate level monsters can be detected.

So, there was no way that a low-level monster could hide its identity.

aah!

A monster that seems to only see Priscilla, ignoring all the people around him and rushing to him.

“ Protect the Prince and Priscilla-sama!”

The knights who woke up late quickly blocked the front of such a monster.

Suga, go, go!

It was disappointing.

Dozens of tentacles sprouting from monsters moved at great speed and cut off the entire body of the knights.

“ Hey, sword!”

“ Ahhh!”

It didn’t even take a minute for all the knights who rushed in to die or become incapacitated.

That was the monster.

Monsters with overwhelming power that even lower classes cannot compare with humans.

‘I mean, there are plenty of guys like that in the magic world.’

With that thought in mind, Shion, who raised the corner of her mouth, slowly rolled her feet.

With him, I wondered if the image of Zion would melt into the darkness that came after the sun had set.

slurp-

appeared right in front of the monster.

Clearly, unlike those he had dealt with so far, the monster immediately recognized Zion and moved his tentacles.

Tentacles shooting towards the vital points of Zion with their terrifying cutting power.

quagga gaga!

Zion’s whole body was pierced through him.

“ Si, His Majesty Zion!”

The moment Fredo, who was watching the scene from behind, screamed urgently.

self-

The pierced form of Zion dispersed as if it had dissolved in the water.

At about the same time, Zion reappeared from behind the monster.

I wondered if darkness would form on Zion’s hands.

Quad Duck!

I just pulled out one of the monster’s tentacles.

A monster that twists its body while screaming in pain.

In the meantime, Shion, who had thrown away the tentacles that had been pulled out, continued to reach out toward the revealed monster’s vital point.

Crack!

As if instinctively felt that it was dangerous, the monster with a stiff neck gathered all the tentacles to defend against Shion’s attack.

On top of such a monster’s tentacles, a young and ferocious magician.

However, the moment Zion’s hand touches it.

“… … !”

Such magic disappeared as if washed away.

As if it didn’t exist in the first place.

Quajiic!

Shion’s hand, which easily shattered the defense of the monster whose eyes had changed due to surprise, pierced one of the monster’s hearts.

aah!

‘ Did you have two hearts?’

Zion’s eyes do not stop there and look for the next heart.

At that time, the demonic spirit came to his senses and desperately raked up all the remaining magical energy and released it to the outside at once.

Tuquaang!

Since it was not yet possible to annihilate this size of magic at once, Sion widens the distance to avoid the explosion of magic.

As a result, the demon, who took a moment to catch his breath, glared at Zion.

“… … how.”

A vague human language that flows from a place thought to be the mouth of a monster.

20 years.

20 years.

The time when a demon hid in the human world and was here in Chimseonggung.

There has never been anything like this before.

There was nothing similar.

Dumb humans did not recognize their identity and thought they would continue to do so.

By the way… … .

“ I, the magic circle, what is it?”

The moment he saw the red light leaking out of that magic circle, his desire to take off the human skin he was wearing rose unwittingly.

And the moment Princess Priscilla drips her own blood on it.

he lost his sanity

The only thing that filled his head was Priscilla’s longing for blood.

There’s something more incomprehensible.

“ And, what is that power?”

The darkness that destroys the magician without a trace the moment it touches it.

I’ve never seen or heard of anything like that since I was born.

And I couldn’t believe that all this happened to the Prince of Zion, who had been watching for over 10 years.

“ Who are you?”

The man standing in front of him now is absolutely not Prince Zion.

That was the conclusion of the demon.

“Your enemy.”

“… … What?”

There was a small question in the eyes of the monster at Shion’s slurping reply, but that question didn’t last long.

The new version of Shion, who moved with that horse, quickly climbed into the darkness and came right in front of them.

Kia!

A monster created like a giant drill by gathering all the tentacles together, screaming and shooting at Sion.

Perhaps it was instinctively aware that it was the last, and it was an attack on a different level than before.

‘ If this is enough, I can break through that darkness… … .’

But at that moment, Zion’s hand, which had only broken everything up until now, made a strange change.

Sion’s hand gently digs under the tentacle drill of a monster that shoots like a snake swimming in the water.

The moment when Shion’s hand moves at a strange angle and gently lifts up.

Tuoung!

The monster’s tentacle drill soared upward as if struck by lightning.

“ How… … !”

Shion, who had dug at once through the gap that appeared with him, reached out his hand without hesitation towards the heart he had found a while ago.

Kwajik!

A roaring crackling sound.

With both hearts smashed, the last thing the monster saw, whose life was dying out, were Zion’s eyes that were bent as if they were happy, and a single black star hovering in it.

‘It would have been difficult if Heuk Seong-ha did not rise to 1 star.’

The monster species that hid into the human world do not leave a corpse in order not to leave a trace even when they die.

So, looking at the corpse of the disappearing monster, Shion thought.

strong.

The first monster I encountered was very strong.

If the lower ranks are like this, how much are the guys above them?

So I was looking forward to it even more.

The stronger the opponent, the higher the wall, the stronger the interest in Sion.

‘ I think it was probably like this.’

After staring at the corpse for a while, Shion raised his hand and stabbed it in the neck of the monster that had not yet disappeared.

Aww!

Then you hear the sound of something breaking.

The Demonic Demon takes two measures against the monsters hiding in the human world.

One of them was the extinction of the corpse that is happening now, and the other was the transmission of information.

The moment the monster dies, all the information that the monster has seen and heard is transmitted to the demon station, and Sion had just broken the core responsible for the transmission.

“ What happened… … Did it happen?”

A trembling voice could be heard in Shion’s ears, who had perfected it until the end.

Shion’s eyes turned to him, and Priscilla looked at her with swaying eyes.

Not only that, but also the appearances of knights with pale faces and servants sitting on the floor, who had suffered a blow to their souls by the Magi, were also coming in.

He looked like he couldn’t understand what had happened.

“ More than that, the one that just disappeared… … .”

It was time for Priscilla to open her mouth again toward Zion, perhaps unable to hold back the question.

Quang!

“Your Majesty Zion!”

A group of knights hurriedly rushed into the gymnasium, opening the exterior gates as if they were about to break.

Knights with a high level of prayer that cannot even be compared with the knights in Chimseonggung.

They were probably the escort knights that Ivelyn had secretly pasted near Chimseonggung after her last visit.

Among them, a man who seemed to be the head of the knights came to Shion and bowed his head when he realized that the work had already been completed.

“ Hello. Lord Zion. My name is Alex of the White Lion Knights. May I ask what happened?”

Sion’s mouth slowly opened as she looked at Alex like that with eyes that couldn’t understand what she was thinking.

“ Nothing.”

“… … Yes?”

“ I was just thinning out the enemy.”

A question was added to Alex’s eyes, but Zion’s mouth didn’t open any longer.

‘ Not yet.’

Couldn’t reveal it yet.

If this fact were known, the hidden monsters would dig deeper into the shadows.

‘It ‘s not like that.’

Until you hunt them all.

Thinking so, Zion’s eyes turned to the people’s palace, which looked like a dot in the distance.
