Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 69

Episode 69.

The northern western wall had already been torn down by Fenrir.

Because it was a spacious entrance of 100 meters in length, it was more than capable of accommodating the numerous demigods rushing in like a tidal wave.

The animals were rushing back to their hometown.

I passed through the broken barrier, crossed the canyon, and entered the Perennial Snowflake.

From a distance, humans watched the scene with wistful eyes.

The war was won, but the extermination of the beasts failed.

By the time most of the demi-humans had left the empire’s territory, Fenrir, who had been wary of humans, also turned his body and looked at the Perennial Snowflake.

Then it was the moment to leap into the canyon.

My sensitive sense of smell responded. A body odor engraved in my mind. I tilted my head towards the sky where the smell was approaching.

A human was flying, tied to a huge arrow.

The moment their gazes crossed, a human body flashed.

At the same time, he disappeared and was now face to face with Fenrir.

The wolf couldn’t help but be embarrassed. This was the first time since I was born that I had not been able to follow the movements of other living things with my eyes.

Mobility equivalent to even the recognition of the King of Unemployed Beasts. Also, that wasn’t the end.

The cutting that went against providence began.

The man lowered the blade from top to bottom. The sound of cutting through the air could not keep up with the speed, so it was heard half a beat late.

At that time, one of Fenrir’s eyes had already been torn out.

The process that lasted only a moment did not even allow time to feel the pain.

The knife approaches again. towards the heart.

Fenrir was struck by a strange sensation.

It was a strange feeling, as if only the man and himself remained in a space where time had stopped.

No, the man’s time was passing much faster than the wolf’s.

The only ones standing still were wolves, other demi-humans, and humans.

Fenrir felt a distant wall.

I decided that I could not avoid the knife aimed at my heart.

So I twisted my upper body with all my might. The blade pierced the skin, but did not reach the vital area.

It seemed like he managed to avoid it.

It was the best, and even this response was possible because Fenrir was the strongest beast king of all time.

However, this strange time is not over.

The sword slipped out and this time dug into his neck, and Fenrir moved his square muscles to avoid the fatal wound. He didn’t die by a single inch.

The series of processes continued hundreds of times. The wolf, whose entire body had been mutilated, was in tatters, but his lifeline was clearly attached.

And finally, this bizarre phenomenon that was far from common sense came to an end.

Uriel’s blessing, which lasted only one second, ended.

The man chewed his lips and drove the final blow into the beast’s trapezius muscle.

Only then was Fenrir able to return to reality.

I immediately moved my gaze towards the man and realized who he was.

At the same time, the tattoos on Aiden’s body glowed white.

The moment a small protective shield surrounded Iden, Fenrir saw burning flames.

The pillar of fire soared up to the blue sky, engulfing Aiden and the beast. It caused a series of explosions with the power to burn up all oxygen.

Kwaaaaaaaa! With a roar that split heaven and earth, red-hot flames engulfed the sky.

And the two fell into the ravine together.

*

The demi-humans and humans nearby could see the whole scene, but could not understand the phenomenon.

Something flew out of nowhere and exploded immediately after touching Fenrir.

That was all they perceived.

Everyone just froze and stared at the smoke encroaching on the air.

At that time, it was the ridge of a snowy mountain like any other in the world of perpetual snow.

As soon as Uriel heard the explosion, she placed her hand on one of Aiden’s severed arms.

I rolled up my sleeves. The power of lion revival wrapped around a pure white wrist. Since I instinctively knew how to use it, I started using my abilities right away.

But nothing happened.

Kairos, the leader of the Imperial Knights, looked at Yuriel with a very nervous expression.

“······There is no response.”

Yuriel said in a low voice.

“It means you’re not dead yet. “He must be suffering from terrible pain.”

After thinking for a moment, Kairos took out a dark red greatsword and said.

“No matter how much I think about it, I can’t wait here. Let’s go, everyone. “We must help Lord Iden.”

There were two instructions that Iden gave them.

If the lion creature does not respond, wait at the snowy mountain.

The other was an instruction to begin a subjugation operation the moment Aiden was revived using the arm as a medium.

Now that Aiden was not dead, the Heavenly People’s Army had to follow the former.

Therefore, Kairos was disobeying his superior’s orders.

There was nothing he could do. If not now, there will never be another opportunity to slaughter the heilang.

In a way, it was a matter of the future of the empire.

Gielan looked at Kairos.

“Young friend, don’t act hastily. If you lead the knights, don’t you understand better than anyone else? Top-down is an unwritten rule, so follow the command.”

Kairos said as if he was frustrated.

“Old man, of course he is important, but isn’t the situation different now? You need to be clear about your priorities. “I don’t have time to do this.”

Sachilie Sword Saint nodded and opened his mouth.

“That is correct. “If you wait impatiently, you will miss the opportunity.”

Gielan looked at him and smiled.

“This part represents the reason why your sword cannot reach me. “The basics are not in place in everything.”

For a moment, the air became cold. Sachilie Sword Saint looked at Gielan with cold eyes.

The relationship between the two could not have been known to any citizen of the empire. Enemy and rival. Also, one of the two was the strongest prosecutor of the time.

At a time when a sense of intimidation was weighing down all around, Landaren, the Grand Marshal of the Magwangun, opened his mouth.

“It’s a problem with no right answer. “But I will trust Lord Iden.”

Crown, the highest rank in the castle, also nodded.

“You can express your opposition during the meeting, but once the operation has begun, you must follow it. It was a possibility that he created in the first place. He didn’t say a word when he killed the spirit creature. “I think there is definitely a plan this time too.”

Kairos scanned the fabric with his eyes.

There were quite a few people who agreed with his opinion, such as Sachilie Sword Saint.

The knights of the Imperial Knights usually did that.

He said, chewing his lips.

“We’ll go too.”

As Kairos gestured and was about to turn his back, Euron spoke in a slightly trembling voice.

“Oh no!”

Daryl, a little embarrassed, grabbed Euron’s arm and tried to stop him.

“Hey man!”

Many people looked at Euron, who was behind the ballista.

Kairos spoke in a cold voice.

“What did you say?”

“I said you shouldn’t go.”

Most people frowned.

“Do you think this is your place to intervene?”

The Heavenly People’s Army here was not an ordinary army. Each person was in charge of an important position in the empire or was at the top of a field.

The fact that Euron and Daryl are in this group is absurd. It was the result of being somewhat unreasonable as Iden’s squire.

I was in charge of transporting the ballista. It’s probably not my place to offer an opinion.

Euron knew that well, but he had no choice but to open his mouth.

“I’m sorry. But you must not disobey the order. It was always these isolated actions that created variables in His plans. Please stay here. “Please.”

Kairos narrowed his eyebrows.

“Lord Iden has not been resurrected, so now is the variable. But do I have to explain it to you in detail? “Don’t cross the line.”

Euron bowed his head.

“Ah, Lord Iden, you also assumed this situation. Didn’t you order me to stay where I was when the Lion King didn’t respond? “Now is not the time for us to be proactive.”

Daryl said with a sigh.

“That’s actually true. For example, if the crossbow’s aim is so wrong that you fly in the wrong direction, of course you have to move. But that’s not the case now. You’ll get better soon.”

Kairos made an expression as if he was not satisfied with the boldness of his servants. Gielan chuckled and Siron opened his mouth.

She was well qualified to speak as a second person.

“that’s right. “I also remember disobeying his orders and almost getting into trouble.”

Jude and Goat nodded at the same time.

It was an anecdote about a time when he was face to face with a nine-tailed fox and he disobeyed his command not to follow him.

If I had been rude, I would have been killed.

Rockharin, the spear knight who had been listening quietly, looked at Kairos.

“Kairos, I know how you feel, but for now, let’s trust the hero. He told me to move in three hours. “At least until then.”

Kairos’s eyes fluctuated as if he was deeply conflicted. After a while, I sighed and approached Euron.

Then he spoke in a low voice.

“Squire, if you want to preach your will, be qualified to do so. It’s the bare minimum courtesy. Just because you serve a hero doesn’t mean you have status. “Keep that in mind.”

It was a fact that Euron knew well.

“I will listen carefully.”

Kairos left those words behind and turned around.

Grand Marshal Landaren floated a clock in the air.

“There are two hours and half left. “Let’s wait.”

*

A canyon that borders the northern part of the empire and the Perennial Snowflake.

The dark valley was an abyss submerged in darkness.

It’s been that way for hundreds of years, but not now.

This is because a blue glow brightens up this place where not a single ray of sunlight shines.

It was the soft glow emanating from the wolf’s eyes.

Fenrir was in tatters, and Iden was completely charred.

The wolf was somehow holding on on all four legs, but Iden was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed.

Fenrir stared at Aiden and let out a cold voice.

“······You’re alive.”

Aiden is not dead. It just didn’t have a human shape.

Both melted eyes could not be opened, and the upper and lower bodies were almost separated.

Fenrir was doubtful whether the being in front of him was human.

Aiden opened his mouth with difficulty.

“Let’s make a deal.”

“what?”

“I will liberate your people.”

Fenrir strode forward and looked down at Iden.

“Are you begging for your life?”

“right. “It’s your life, not mine.”

Iden intended to save Fenrir if possible.

If the wolf kills Aiden, the subjugation begins. Even Fenrir would not be able to survive because he was severely injured.

“That’s bullshit.”

Fenrir raised his huge paw.

Iden opened his mouth.

“I am not dying. Also, the nine-tailed fox is alive.”

Fenrir frowned.

“You already know this.”

“It’ll be quick. “I saved his life.”

“He knows that too.”

“I killed all the remaining spirit creatures.”

“What do you want to say?”

“Roll your head, you foolish beast. “Aren’t you trying to unite the demi-humans?”

The beasts’ thrones are empty.

“This is your chance to have one God. “Go to the leaders and kill all the young gods they are trying to protect.”

If that happens, the only beast with divine status will be Saya.

“Furthermore, if you succeed, I will free the demi-human slaves. Do you see what I mean? “You have nothing to lose in this deal.”

If Fenrir refused the deal and killed Iden, Iden planned to kill the spirit creatures herself.

In short, even if the wolf did not accept this offer, there was no fatal blow to Iden.

The power of lion revival and the time it takes to find the cubs.

And he only lost his future ally, Fenrir.

It wasn’t a fatal injury that would have destroyed the deployment. Although it was painful.

Fenrir snorted.

“What a cunning tongue.”

Then he put his front foot down.

Heaps of broken stones flew in all directions.
