The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism - The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism chapter 113
113.
Michael and I got into the car and headed to Yeongheung Island.
Travel time is about an hour.
As the Imoogi said, it wasn’t that far.
but,
“hmm?”
The moment the car passed over the bridge leading to the island, I felt a strange sense of incongruity.
At some point, no other vehicles were seen around.
I don’t think it was this quiet before entering the bridge.
And the most obvious change was the air.
On the bridge over the sea, a dry, dry wind, like a desert wind, passes by.
A feeling of disgust, like a small palm sticking to your throat with every breath.
“… It is a barrier.”
The driver, who had been driving quietly without saying anything, said that and stopped the car.
From what I can see, his level is in his mid-30s.
Perhaps a chauffeur, but he also seemed to be a church exorcist.
Meanwhile, Michael, who heard his words, let out a short saliva and continued.
“Have you restricted entry by turning the entry way into a demonic area? You are wise for a brood of poisonous snakes.”
With a sneer, he commented on the barrier placed here.
it’s magic
And seeing it, this uneasy air was definitely similar to that of the magic station.
Demons originally have the property of rejecting people and calling demons.
A demonic space where ordinary people feel instinctive fear, and even exorcists feel insecure.
It seems that the monster was using that characteristic to restrict passage on the only road leading to the island.
“What would you like to do?”
“Keep going. If I had a head, I wouldn’t have put a monster at the entrance to the island.”
At Michael’s words, the car moved again.

Just like that, we crossed the bridge and entered the island.
As he said, the entrance to the island inside the barrier was more ordinary than expected.
Shops were open as usual in various buildings near the bridge.
There were, of course, many figures around him.
However, not all of them were bright faces.
It was only natural that no one would come from outside due to the barrier.
also,
“There is no monster nearby.”
In fact, there were no monsters in this area.
At my words, Michael calmly nodded.
But as we went further into the island, the atmosphere changed completely.
The location was a small mountain at the end of the island, where people were rare.
It’s a hill that’s not very high.
There, like the snowy mountains inhabited by monsters, an ominous atmosphere overflowed.
And around it, a magic area of a density incomparable to that of the barrier on the bridge was formed.
An obvious danger zone.
At this, Michael stopped the car.
“I think it would be better to walk from here.”
I nodded my head at Michael’s words.
“I will open the relic. Prepare for probation.”
Michael said so to the driver.
The driver bowed deeply.
“Then let’s go.”
Then Michael headed forward with a leisurely step.
The time is late afternoon.
The orange glow of the sunset was slowly fading in the sky, and it was already dusk in the mountains.
“… … ”
I climbed the mountain slowly following Michael.
The shade of the trees, which had grown thicker before I knew it, was strangely silent.
However, in that dark silence, the level sign indicating the enemy soon began to appear.
Three things are visible right now.
It was a medium-sized monster with a level between 40 and 50.
“It appeared.”
“hmm… ”
Michael nodded as if he understood and continued walking.
Then, the monsters also watched us from a distance, but did not attack us first.
The intent was immediately apparent.
In the dark hidden by the leaves.
It was because there were more and more hidden level markers beyond it.
“… Have you grown a bit?”
The number quickly reached a point that could not be counted on the fingers.
But Michael was still at ease.
“Is that so?”

Just when we reached the top of the Garden.
He looked up at the sky for a moment.
Even so, it was just about to cross the horizon.
As a result, a thick shadow was cast over the mountain.
It was then that the monsters moved.
“Sea profit!”
Medium-sized monsters attacked us from all sides at once.
I finally saw the figures of those who were hiding in the dark.
The shapes were diverse, including insects, animals, and monsters, and the sizes were also different.
Seeing that, I spontaneously reached for the sword, but Michael’s voice continued.
“Stay by my side.”
He pulled something the size of a fist out of his chest.
The thing wrapped in red cloth was none other than a stone.
A grayish stone that looks nothing special from the outside.
However, what I saw was a red-colored, Epic-grade miracle.
Its name is <Elijah’s Altar Stone>.
Then Michael lifted it towards the sky with both hands.
“O Lord, answer me.”
The color of the sky changed along with Michael’s words.
The sky, which had been charred by the setting sun, was burning red again.
The sky just fell to the ground.
It was such a huge flame that it engulfed this mountain.
“That… ”
From that appearance, I could immediately guess the power of Elijah’s altar stone.
The name Elijah was a great hint.
If there is an altar seat, it is among the lore he has.
It was evidently from the most famous anecdote, the tradition of Elijah and the prophets of Baal.
In the legend, Elijah faces off against hundreds of priests of the pagan god Baal.
The method is to build an altar, offer an offering, and then call the god and light the sacrifice.
However, Baal, who had been called by hundreds of priests in the confrontation, never responded.
In response, Elijah builds an altar with 12 stones representing the 12 tribes and calls God alone.
Legend has it that the god who responded to his call sent down a huge fire from the sky and burned the altar and sacrifice.
“… … ”
And now, a huge flame reproducing the legend came down to the ground.
A flame that burns bright red, like fresh blood.
Its firepower was so intense that even I, who was immune to flames, could feel it.
After all, a level 90 exorcist.
If it was this much flame, it would be no wonder that it was the power of a god.
“Kiii-”
Eventually, the flame of the god began to burn all the countless sacrifices, or monsters, piled up on the altar of the mountain.
The monsters, swept away by the onslaught of the rolling flames, were burned helplessly without being able to resist once.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of monsters melt away, and the lush green little hill turns into a heap of ashes.
“Lord… ”
Meanwhile, Michael was making the sign of the cross with his eyes closed.
A confident appearance, as if no monster could survive in this flame anyway.
But I didn’t see it that bad.
“… It’s sweet.”
I murmured as I watched the flames burn away the mountains and monsters and disappear.
The ride on the bus wasn’t bad.
If I had asked me to catch that many monsters, I would have had to go through a lot.
Moreover, most of them were not very high in rank, so there was not much to gain.
However, it was not a bad situation for me to burn it all in one shot.
“It is over.”
As the flames completely disappeared and the landscape turned into a bare mountain, Michael said.
But I was worried about the desolate landscape first.
There must still be people on this island, but isn’t it too conspicuous?
“But this… Are you okay?”
“of course.”
To this, Michael replied as if it were natural.
“Already we are moving to catch up. The police will have nothing to worry about.”
And it turns out, before he got here, he already told the driver to catch up.
Have you thought of this from the beginning?
I didn’t know how to fix it, but I was glad that I was able to take care of it.
“however… Even after doing this, I can’t see the heresy.”
Michael said that and looked at me.
In response, I called the arrow and opened the map on my smartphone to check the direction.
It pointed to the beach leading from the garden.
“It’s on the sea side.”
So I guided him to the beach.
The empty beach was as quiet as a rat.
But on top of the moonlit sea, someone was standing.
“That guy… ”
The male level is 43.
It was never high level.
However, the monster hiding in the sea and supporting his feet was different.
88 levels.
It seemed that there was no need to doubt that the monster was a monster just by standing stepping on a monster whose level was more than twice as high.
“Oh, are you here already?”
The goose looked at us and said awkwardly.
Unlike Manghyeon, who was an old monk, he was relatively young in his late 20s and did not look like a monk.
Rather, it was the exact opposite, just like a bully wandering around the beach.
“Are you a monster?”
“If you come knowing everything, what do you ask?”
Goeju responded frivolously to Michael’s words.
At this, Michael smiled lightly.
“Could you catch me before you run away? This also will be the will of the Lord.”
“what? escape?”
The monster giggled and laughed.
“Why are you running away? Do you think I’ve been waiting for you here for no reason?”
His gaze fell on Michael.
“I already expected that your church would intervene. A bigger player came than I thought, but it will be more fun.”
Are you saying that you can prepare yourself?
I carefully drew my sword.
Then, the sea monster at his feet appeared.
It was absurdly huge, occupying half of the beach with only its raised head.
A crocodile-like figure with a deep blue color like the deep sea.
“… Leviathan?”
Watching that scene, Michael spoke the name of a monster in Jewish tradition.
“Hey, it’s not just the 10 elders. Find out at once.”
“Have you brought out that disgusting beast?”
Michael’s expression darkened mercilessly.
“Yeah, he’s just the right guy to swindle your church bastards. Isn’t it?”
Leviathan was a monster from the Old Testament.
In Jewish mythology, it appears as the ruler of the huge sea, but its name continues to the Apocalypse, and it is a monster that is the original source of beasts in the apocalypse.
That’s why Leviathan symbolizes the devil and Satan, and that’s why it’s the toughest enemy for the church.
Even if that wasn’t the case, he was an existence that could be said to reach the highest level among the strange, so even if that opponent was Michael, he was by no means an easy opponent.
“however… ”
The monster’s gaze turned to me.
He glared at me with a subtly different gaze than when he looked at Michael.
“I didn’t expect two giants to come.”
you’re a giant
do i mean
It’s the first time I’ve ever been called that, but I answered shamelessly.
“Are you dissatisfied?”
He sneered at my words.
“I can’t just leave the guy who caught the manghyun. I was trying to save… Wouldn’t that be impossible?”
With his words, Leviathan’s mouth opened.
Then another monstrosity appeared from its huge mouth.
It was a monster that covered its whole body with colorful metallic red armor that looked like a robot.
The weapon is a giant axe.
There were also several menacing thorns growing on the armor.
And on the side of the helmet, you can see the horn coming out from the inside.
Looking at the shape of the armor… Is it an oriental monster?
“What, there is no Beast Master.”
I murmured as I watched the endless appearances of monsters.
His level is 73.
It wasn’t as good as Leviathan, but he was formidable.
The red armor flew from the Leviathan’s mouth to the sandy beach in one jump.
The sandy beach shook with a thud as the three-meter-tall metal monster landed.
“… … ”
Meanwhile, Michael didn’t even pay attention to the red armor.
Instead, he took out another sacred object that was different from the previous one, shining in golden color, and prepared for battle.
At the same time,
“Koooooooooo!”
The Leviathan howled ferociously and moved away from the shore.
Then again.
“You bastard!”
Michael rushed into the sea to chase the monster.
At the moment you want to walk on water like me.
A burning chariot suddenly jumped out in front of him.
It appeared suddenly and burned Michael in the air, then flew away with Leviathan in the middle of the sea.
That too… Is it Elijah’s legacy?
I wasn’t sure.
“Tsk… ”
So I took my eyes off Michael and clicked my tongue as I looked at the red armor that was left alone.
Now all that’s left is him and me.
I could chase it if I wanted to, but it seemed like I had to deal with it on my own.
“I can’t help it.”
I fixed my sword.
Then the red armor kicked off the sand and charged me.
