Only the Party Members Returned, Not the Hero - Only the Party Members Returned, Not the Hero chapter 39

39. Prayer of the Apostate (3)

39.

The moon splits into three parts.

The moon fragment that fell to the far left turns black.

The remaining moonlight crumbles on the edges of the moon pieces.

A strange thing was happening.

The time Tania predicted must be early morning, close to morning.

But now, let alone morning, it was the middle of the night, shortly after evening.

The prayer of an apostate engraved on the floor by moonlight continues to shine.

As if you were forcing me to read.

From noble mtl dot com

“Ha.”

I laughed.

How can a goddess be so naive?

What is the reason why I want to hear the prayer of the apostate so much by moving the promised future time?

Sarak.

The darkness moves.

At the end that connects the wide meadow illuminated by moonlight and the grove of trees, darkness squirms.

In the darkness, the blue eyes of the beast are opened.

A wolf with unrecognizable black fur appears.

According to Tania’s prediction, except for the wolf at the end, it was obvious that it was fake.

The wolf’s appearance was so overwhelming that I couldn’t believe it was fake.

I grabbed the handle of the old steel sword hanging from my waist.

Kleureung-

I can hear the sound of a wolf scratching its neck.

Elise told me to swing a sword for the sake of the future.

Like this.

My life has always been full of threats that I can’t stand today.

By the goddess, the monster, and the people around me.

“Ha, f*ck.”

How far the knights are from here, how long it will take EL and Elish to come to the pasture from their temporary lodgings.

Those things didn’t matter.

Even if it’s not now, the goddess will endlessly force herself.

My isolation, my loneliness.

I put Caulcasus at the tip of my sword, taking a basic break.

With Ellen, who has gone from being a warrior to wearing a broken smile like a mask.

At the same time, Colcasus, who recognized such a hero as an adversary, showed its sharp teeth.

The hero bursts blue mana from his old sword.

I rushed alone into the darkness.

***

“Huh?!”

Cudangtang-

My vision shook.

Elish got up from her seat hastily, clutching her frantically beating heart and letting her breathe heavily.

Her elbows throbbed when she fell from her bed.

“Haa, hah, haa, heeup, suck….”

Mana was draining from his body like the ebb tide.

The shapes of all kinds of magic formations were drawn and erased repeatedly.

As if hell had materialized in her heart.

“Huh, ugh…”

In response to the pain that seemed to set her veins on fire, Elish unknowingly crouched down on her back.

“Elish!”

Awakened by the sound of something collapsing, EL threw the door open.

The bed sheets soaked with cold sweat and Elish lying on the ground caught EL’s eyes.

Elish stumbled up from her seat and nearly fell over several times, but she managed to walk right in front of EL.

“Ellen, El, Kolok, Managa, Ellen-“

“Calm down, Elish. What happen?!”

Elish managed to regain her composure and grabbed Elish by the shoulders, who couldn’t even open her eyes properly, and made her look at herself.

Elish and Ellen have a direct contract, so if something happens to Ellen, she will be the first to know.

What Elish looks like in EL’s eyes right now?

He looked like someone he’d never seen before, terrified.

“El, we need to find Ellen. Please, we need to find Ellen….”

Tears quickly welled up in Elish’s eyes and began to fall on the floor drop by drop.

Elle felt that the situation was not serious, but Elish had to tell her where Ellen was.

So when she was about to use her mind stabilization magic, holding onto Elish’s shoulders again.

The cry of a monster came from outside.

Kuhuhhh-!

Rumble-

The explosive power of mana that shakes space shakes the temporary lodging.

Clang-

Looking beyond the helplessly bursting window, EL’s wide open blue eyes are looking.

It was a pasture not too far away.

Blue mana rains down from the sky like lightning, and a dark monster’s fog bursts from the place where the mana hit directly.

“… Ellen….”

In the night sky where EL’s eyes were wide open in surprise.

“No.”

The three-segmented moon was darkly colored.

.

.

.

“You-!”

Hwarreuk- Kwaang-

Ergeneuk’s flame-like mana explodes the entire upper part of the wagon.

The cloak, scorched with red mana, was tattered like a rag, but the owner of the cloak stepped lightly on the floor to balance.

The ensuing series of strikes curves in, aiming for Flavor’s waist.

Flevor took a few steps back as he blocked the hastily drawn sword vertically, and smiled pretending to be relaxed.

“Why are you doing this to me, Miss Tania?”

“You- what did you do to Ellen?!”

The face of Tania, who appeared from the flames, was frowning fiercely, and even the flesh shuddered around her magenta eyes.

Flavor untied her frowning wrist with a twist of hers, and looked at her with her supposedly calm expression.

“…hahahaha.”

Flevor, who had already crossed the realm and was able to measure the opponent’s mana, was able to grasp the amount of mana widely spread around Tania’s body.

The results were surprising.

That’s something that the old Tania couldn’t have.

It was such an enormous amount that it could be said that half of the anchor had been broken.

“I asked what you did, Flavor.”

“Can’t you be a little more polite? Miss Ergenuke.”

“Don’t be polite.”

Tania quickly moved her steps toward the Plevever.

Flavor avoided Tania and spread the distance by going around her circle.

Tania hated Flavor from the beginning.

For now, the fact that she was being mean to Ellen was enough to make her an enemy of Tania.

Even in the past, Flavor’s shady behavior was because he did not distinguish between heroes and other nobles.

“What are you doing? I just had a conversation.”

“Don’t f*ck with me, Flavor. It’s a pierced mouth, don’t give a damn.”

Tania suppresses her anger and holds down every word.

The reason why Caulcasus was summoned early was that he was sure to be there.

Actually, Tania told Ellen as if Caulcasus was summoned naturally.

The conditions for occurrence begin with the discrepancy between the Goddess and Ellen.

Originally, Ellen should have remembered the apostate’s prayer alone in the grounds of Caulcasus at dawn before the subjugation and turned it away.

Then the goddess who was shunned summoned three moonlit Colcass to give him her trial.

That was the predetermined future.

It was a secret that Tania did not tell her for nothing, fearing that her Ellen would go against her goddess by recalling her pre-apostate prayer because of her own words.

She never recalls the apostate’s prayer, since she can’t do stupid incantations like that.

Just as the subjugation was organized by predicting the same time in the holy war, the plan had reached the near completion stage.

“Good.”

But it.

Flavor ruined everything.

“If Ellen doesn’t pray the apostate, she will never be able to kill the moonlit Colcasus alone.”

It was an accident that hadn’t happened before the regression.

The moon in the sky was broken into three pieces, and while I was questioning Flavor, the second moon was now dyed black.

There was no time.

No matter how fast you go from the base of the Caulcasus to the temporary lodging pasture, it takes several hours.

Obviously, Tania gritted her teeth and once again struck Ergenuke’s sword at Flavor’s head.

She raises her sword horizontally to block it, and she thrusts her face close to his.

In the burning eyes.

A chaotic mixture of hatred and confirmation towards him.

It exudes a cold energy that is not pushed back even by the momentum of Flavor, who has gone through all the pre-natal battles.

“Flavor, one in tenth, one in tenth…. If anything happens to Ellen.”

Flavor’s silver armor begins to melt.

He and She Her red mana wrapped around her gradually grows her size.

Flevor’s iron glove holding the sword turned into silver water and fell to the floor.

“I will melt you to death.”

Flavor frowned and smiled.

“As much as you like.”

A good life faces a life.

***

Kuhuhhh-!

“Noisy, you, you f*cking bastard.”

Are you a wolf, not a dog?

I said that while catching my breath.

A few sums have passed.

The black wolf was glaring at me with a long cut across its back.

I had to allow for some small wolf claw marks on my back and abdomen.

The moonlight gradually darkens and the night deepens.

It was an unfavorable fight for humans who needed light.

Elish’s magic circle, which was broken into a mess and shimmered intermittently, and my sword, which expressed blue mana, lit up the dark pasture like the only lantern.

From noble mtl dot com

Purreuk, kreuk.

They stare at each other and move sideways in circles.

I gripped the handle of the old sword as if it would be crushed.

A new type of dark wolf rushes in front of me like the wind.

Swings its front paws larger than his head toward the warrior’s face.

My head hastily lowered and the few strands of hair I couldn’t bear to avoid are cut off by my toenails.

A sword that rolls forward and goes inward as if it were about to lead a lead sword.

I tried to cut the wolf’s belly skin by repeating it with rotational power.

The wolf turns to the side to avoid it.

A few tufts of hair were clipped by my blade and scattered like fallen leaves.

Fast behind heavy topics.

“You bastard.”

Caucasus’s front paws lift into the sky.

Three pieces of moon floating in the sky.

Three claws filled the gaps that were fragmented.

It was struck down from above, and I raised the sword horizontally to block the claws.

Coooooung- Kkagagak-

I don’t want to hear the sound of friction between metal and metal.

My shoulder felt like it would break from the weight-bearing attack.

One knee is on the floor.

My knee touched the wilderness of the pasture, and the prayer of an apostate engraved in front of it sparkles and shines dizzyingly.

The letters flow in gold.

As if to read it accordingly.

I looked up and looked into the eyes of Caulcasus.

The blue beast’s eyes look exactly like the moon that was split in half.

Goddess compels me.

Apostatize your father.

Just as your father apostatized me.

Destroy your personal goals and become my servant.

Follow my will.

On the other hand, Elise told me.

I wish I could win as a hero.

Kick-

After a long power struggle, the wolf’s claws get closer to me.

Death is right around the corner.

The wolf’s claws on the bridge of my nose slowly carve my flesh.

“… Please tell the goddess one of these words.”

So I opened my mouth.

The salty flow of blood flowed into his mouth.

“Even if I cease to be a hero, I will not follow your will.”

It seemed that Elise’s wish could not be kept.

The old steel sword is permeated with malice, not swordsmanship or anything.

Hate.

Rage.

Resentment.

Familiar emotions that I consciously turned away from filled my mana.

The warrior’s heart was dyed even blacker.

Thumping-

Ellen’s heart beats wildly.

The bursting blue magic swallowed the wolf.

Kuhuhhh-!!

Colcasus, which had been thrown back for a long time, shook its tattered front paws as if it had been torn to pieces and howled in agony.

The deeper blue mana,

The melting reason.

Unknown deep magic flows from Ellen’s heart.

His restraints began to crack.
