Raising Paladins - Raising Paladins chapter 99
Episode 99. Snake rider (3)
Human lifespan is about 100 years at most.
But very occasionally, there are those who live an unusually long time.
They may have been a clan blessed with longevity by the sun god, developed a special magic, or even found an elixir of immortality.
In Helena’s case, it was blood magic.
A terrible technique to prolong one’s own life by forcibly taking another person’s heart and consuming the life force within it!
As a result, he was cursed with the wrath of the sun god and his whole body rotted away.
Helena obtained an ancient artifact from the Lich King and maintained her beautiful and mesmerizing appearance with it.
It was such a painful and difficult thing for humans to live for hundreds of years.
however.
‘No, that’s an illusion.’
They endured terrible pain and waited for the Lich King’s resurrection.
But now, in front of her eyes, there was a man who was not at all happy.
A great warrior of the humans and defender of the Empire, a contemporaneous contemporaneous with his master, the Lich King.
‘Paladin of Dawn’ Carlos!
Obviously the looks are different.
However, his characteristics are golden hair and eyes resembling the sun.
And a noble soul that constantly reveals its presence in it.
It was definitely a man he knew.
“you… … you… … ?!”
“It’s been a while, Helena.”
“… … !”
stop!
Helena stepped back in astonishment.
“Stop, please… … how… … ?!”
Could it be that the man learned blood magic like he did?
Or is there a skill that extends lifespan among divine magic or blessings?
No, it can’t be.
The priests of the Sun God Church never try to forcibly extend the lifespan set by the Sun God.
That’s blasphemy against the sun god!
So what is this man all about?
The Lich King and Carlos died on the same day and in the same place.
The Lich King is a being that can be resurrected as long as his soul exists.
But Carlos is human.
A human who rots when he dies and must return to the earth.
A human who should have become manure was alive and breathing in front of Helena.
jerk, jerk.
A sword that jumped off the head of a giant snake.
He approaches Helena.
cried Helena, withdrawing hysterically.
“Kill! Kill! right now! Don’t let me come near you!”
But the fish-men couldn’t budge.
Everyone was frightened by the tremendous divine power emitted from the sword.
“Kill that bastard right now! You idiots!”
Helena squeezed her throat.
But, as expected, no one moved, so Helena pulled the nearby fish people with her blood magic.
Wood deok!
As soon as Helena’s hand touches the body of the pulled fish-man, it crumples.
A fish-man turned into a handful of gore.
Helena threw blood at Carl.
As soon as the blood, which had clumped together like a lump, spread into the air, it poured out as hundreds of arrows.
It was the magic that tried to break Tyra’s Holy Light.
but.
“Even though time has passed, it hasn’t gotten any better.”
Carl slowly and gracefully extends his left hand forward.
A white light spread from his palm, and it soon turned into a shield with the symbol of the Dawning Church.
Do-do-do-do-do-!
Fierce bloody arrows flew and pierced the shield.
But mysteriously, the moment the arrow hit the shield, it turned into smoke and evaporated.
“her… … .”
Greenwood, who was watching from behind a wooden fence that was far away, admired.
After recovering her divine power, Tira was breathing heavily while leaning on a wooden fence.
Her eyes were also round.
“Ka, Carl is back with something even more drastically changed.”
“I was strong before, but now it seems that there is a wall that I cannot overcome.”
Hanson was self-deprecating.
Meisa also had her mouth wide open.
Carl was already close to Helena.
“I assumed it would be you, but I am surprised you are actually alive. You are the seed of the Dirty Night who betrayed your race.”
“… … Hey, get out of here! Paladin!”
“Have you been hiding here for the past 200 years? Eating the hearts of innocent creatures? Under the noble name of the sun god, I will comfort the souls of all living beings who were unfairly sacrificed by you.”
Sreureung-!
Carl drew his sword.
Helena wasn’t alone either.
Helena is a witch and monster who has lived for hundreds of years.
I grabbed the pendant containing the power of the Lich King that was hanging around my neck.
Soon after, the spooky red stone embedded in the pendant shattered, and Helena’s body began to expand.
“… … .”
Helena’s growing body.
Every part of Helena’s body that opened her powers rots.
In a short time, Helena’s body grew much larger than other fish people!
The witch that the soldiers seduced with a captivating smile was nowhere to be found, and a huge lump of filth stood there.
Chwii profit-!
Green gas gushes from her, no, the monster’s body.
Then the bodies of the nearby fishmen began to melt.
aaa!
The fish people writhe in pain and become a handful of liquid.
It was a terrible gas that instantly melted the body of a fish-man with thick scales that even steel weapons could not penetrate, but the sword did not back down.
Rather, he walked forward, skipping ahead, scattering even the sacred shield he had summoned earlier.
“knife! Dangerous!”
Tira, who was watching the situation from a distance, screamed in surprise.
If it was a gas that would melt even the fishmen, the fragile human skin would not be able to withstand it.
But Carl didn’t mind being surrounded by a poisonous green gas.
oh oh oh-!
Helena, who has turned into a huge lump of filth, strikes the knife down with terrifying power.
However, Carl very slightly twisted his body to avoid the attack.
It was a blow that would destroy even a well-built castle wall, but it was meaningless because it did not reach the sword.
Carl looked at Helena with a little pity.
“It would be nice if you used your talents for the benefit of your own people.”
Helena, once a great wizard of the human race.
The problem is that he developed that talent from a very young age.
The enormous power of a child inevitably led to possessiveness and strife.
Helena was severely abused in the process.
Even if she barely managed to get through the hard times, what came back to her was jealousy and contempt.
It is the nature of most humans to hate those who are superior to them for no reason.
Helena turned her back to the world and walked into darkness.
There was a dead but not dead being there.
He reached out to Helena.
– Night and the army of death will punish all who hated you.
Helena, who turned her back on the human world because of envy and jealousy.
But that didn’t mean that all the slaughter she had done was forgiven.
“Gooo-!”
The body covered in rotten filth vomited a groan.
Helena, who avoided the knife even 200 years ago.
Although she used tremendous blood magic, she knew very well that she could not defeat Carlos.
That’s why he harassed the sword by luring soldiers or blasting blood magic over a wide area.
After Carl perished with the Lich King, he thought that there would be no more beings to stop his blood magic.
But he appeared again.
Now there is only one way.
As a servant of the Lich King, whom he served as his eternal master, he was to disappear from this world along with the sword.
thump, thump, thump!
A lump of filth rushes towards the knife.
Rather than attacking, he spreads his arms wide as if trying to grab a sword.
Carl immediately grasped Helena’s intentions.
“Are you trying to destroy yourself?”
Helena’s main body emits noxious gas enough to melt the fish people.
If that thing explodes, the sword that can protect the body with divine power will survive, but all living things here will be annihilated.
Carl raised his sword and muttered.
“Light… … come!”
A group of lights floating in the air formed on the blade of the sword.
The blade grew bigger and bigger, and eventually surpassed Helena’s body.
A swordsmanship that can only be used with a heart half stained with divine power!
The sword that rose from the seat wrapped itself in the air and cut down the huge sacred sword.
Awesome!
“… … !”
Two eyes that were the only ones that kept their shape on the rotting face.
There was a surprise there.
As if reflecting on her long life, the filth giant and seducer Helena stood for a long time with her body split in half.
Then, Helena’s eyes slowly closed.
“Now rest.”
thru-
A lump of filth that had been rampaging wildly melted to the floor as if it had never happened.
Because it still contained a terrible gas, the floor where the filth touched it went out with a gurgling sound, and bubbles bubbled up.
The giant gentleman approached the sword before he knew it.
As the sword mounted on the giant’s head again, the snake stood up.
A sword that reached a height several times higher than that of the fish people.
he said with his sword hanging down.
“The fight is over.”
Of course, the fish people cannot understand human language.
However, the fish-men who instinctively sensed the majesty of the sword dropped the hideous weapons they were holding to the ground.
Silence flows for a moment.
A cheer erupted from the wooden fence.
“Waaa!”
A family of sea lizards who thought they were going to die at the appearance of a legendary witch!
And Carl’s party and the priests of the temple at noon!
They embraced each other and freely expressed the joy of survival.
In addition, all the fishmen threw away their weapons and fell to their knees.
It was the moment when the war in the underground city that was dying and killing ended.
“you… … .”
The Cretan old man called out to Carl, who was standing next to him.
“Those far away may not have heard, but I certainly did. that witch… … He knew you.”
“… … .”
“How the hell does a witch from a storybook know you? Besides, why are you so afraid?”
“… … .”
As Carl kept his mouth shut, old Crete fell into thought.
and after a while
The old man of Crete, who concluded, said.
“… … I will not divulge your conversation with Helena to anyone. Would that be enough?”
“Thank you, old man.”
Eyes resembling the dawn rising from the darkness of the night.
Cretan old man felt goose bumps all over his body.
‘Just as the witch Helena has returned, so has He returned… … .’
He himself grew old and lived confidently that he had seen all the rare things in the world.
Because he himself wandered in search of the legendary blue coral reef.
A Cretan inspiration who believed he was closer to legends and myths than anyone else in the world.
But that was an illusion.
Now, in front of the Cretan old man’s eyes, a living, breathing legend stood.
‘I didn’t want to do anything embarrassing about leaving the footprints of my life in a book, but this has become unavoidable. hahahaha… … .’
The giant’s body moved toward the wooden fence.
Soon after, he lowered his waist and lowered the sword and old man of Crete to the high watchtower of the wooden fence.
Then people welcomed me.
“knife!”
“Master… … !”
Those who met the person they desperately wanted.
each other hugged each other.
very hot
