Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 424

# 424

Helmut

Episode 424

As the night at the temple was dark, the night at Linosa was also dark. It was a day that passed by with the sun rising sharply.

I didn’t even know that Linosa was hoping that the situation would explode.

If compromise is not possible, there is no choice but to clash until one side is destroyed.

Neither side could think of defeat in a fight for their own fate.

The side that wins will be right and will win because it is right.

The gate opened by divine magic in the pitch-black dawn glowed dazzlingly. Everything was bright as if the sun had risen at night.

The moment the gate connected to the temple main station opened with enormous divine power, the entire air of Rinosa moved.

“You’re here.”

Helmut, Area, and everyone who had reached this level with power realized it right away.

The location was closer to Latona than I thought.

The closer you get to Latona, the closer you get to the defensive barrier, so there is a lot of resistance to implementing such large-scale movement magic.

It would take an enormous amount of divine power to suppress that resistance.

However, for Shinjeon, the difficult task was not unreasonable, even if it was described as exhausting.

Upon arrival, conquer Latona as quickly as possible. This was the point where their arrogance was felt.

[It’s a disgusting feeling.]

Elaga frowned as she sensed the faint divine power spreading through the air.

My hair stood on end. It’s a feeling that can’t be pleasant if you’re a monster.

It was his first time dealing with people with divine power.

‘It’s not something I’m going to deal with.’

Wherever I glanced, Helmut was there.

He immediately jumped out of bed, calmly grabbed his sword, prepared himself, and then turned to look at Elaga who was sitting by the window.

And then he stretched out his hand towards his head.

“I’ll come back, so don’t get into trouble.”

The touching hand was withdrawn.

While Elaga was dumbfounded by her acting like a child, Helmut skillfully opened the door and escaped.

Elaga later became angry.

[Kaaaaaa! Does this guy think I’m a real cat?]

But no matter what’s inside, the skin is what’s important. The angry white cat was very cute.

The lights suddenly turned on and the outside was engulfed in commotion.

Just as the temple was being prepared, this side was also fully prepared.

The door suddenly opened and Area appeared.

“It has begun. “We also have places to go.”

She stretched out her hand and hugged Elaga.

Elaga narrowed her eyes at her as she walked forward.

[What. Where are you going? Why didn’t you tell Helmut?]

“Because Helmut won’t like it? But I think Elaga will like it.”

A cold smile appeared on Alea’s lips.

Looking at that beautiful but somewhat eerie smile, Elaga was seized with a premonition.

[Oh, then?]

She didn’t answer. Holding Elaga in her arms, she headed straight to the place where the moving magic circle was located within the castle.

The flow of magic around Latona has already been blocked with sacred magic to prevent escape.

It is difficult to perform large-scale movement magic in such an unstable atmosphere.

However, a wizard of Area’s caliber could move with only a small number of people.

It will just take a moment. Although I don’t want to leave Helmut alone even for a moment.

This was help in her way.

Alea’s purple eyes had a beautiful look.

At that time, Linosa’s army, including the Black Wing Knights, had also finished convening.

*

“Let’s take the initiative and talk about it.”

Several wizards from the Wizard Association, including the Dean of Greta Academy, came forward first.

The Wizard’s Association has been at odds with the temple, but that’s entirely because the temple has looked down on wizards.

The Wizards’ Association has been incorporated into human life in various ways and has contributed in many fields that cannot be covered by divine magic.

They went out of their way to defeat the warlock and provided a wide range of conveniences in life, actively proving that they were not the target of the temple sword.

Because of this, the temple acknowledged their existence by dismissing them as a necessary evil.

The Wizards’ Association tried to solidify its position without being trapped by the temple, which could send in troops to oppress them at any time, and its methods were never hostile to the temple.

It wasn’t just because they were weak.

The Wizard’s Association basically recognized the Temple as a type of wizard who uses ‘holy magic’.

There are no unnecessary wizards in the world. The temples are wizards who once defeated the devil and saved the world.

Wizards are a rational race.

Right now, I’m blocking my eyes and ears, but if I stand in front of them and notarize Helmut’s sprout of darkness and present an appropriate verification process, I might be able to persuade them.

That was the Wizards Association’s idea, and it was also an attempt to stop him in a situation where a war that could turn Rinosa into ashes was imminent.

War is always best not to happen.

Not only Linosa, but many other countries were on the verge of being engulfed in war in the name of a holy war.

If the Wizards Association prevents it, their position will rise further.

The Dean of Greta Academy is a person who also had interactions with the High Priest.

There was also a calculation that if they showed up and approached from the front, they would just attack and not watch.

But that calculation collapsed cruelly.

“I’m from the Wizards Association. I want to meet High Priest Paul….”

Sigh!

Bright red blood splattered on the floor.

The pure white sword body, which felt even beautiful, shook off drops of blood.

Slurp.

A lost head rolled on the floor next to the fallen body.

The cross section of the severed neck was straight enough to be creepy.

“What the hell!”

The dean shouted with a frozen face.

“What on earth are you doing!”

They were slowly approaching the temple army.

There didn’t seem to be any problem when a paladin on horseback stopped in front of them.

However, the moment a wizard advanced and opened his mouth, the paladin drew his sword and cut off his head without hesitation.

A very natural movement. It was a rush of swords without any time to react.

Even a wizard skilled in combat would have been helpless.

‘Even so, he basically has a defensive barrier around his body.’

The four people here are all high-ranking wizards. I didn’t come bare-handed without taking the minimum precautions.

However, the opponent easily broke the barrier. I felt incredible power from the sword he held in his hand.

Golden eyes flashed tingly from the face hidden by the helmet.

A wizard shouted as if screaming.

“The paladin of the martial arts competition finals!”

Only then did everyone recognize who he was.

The Dean’s face twisted as he looked at the murdered wizard’s body.

“What a shameless thing to do to someone who asks to talk!”

Levant declared coldly.

“There is no need for conversation. Anything that stands in the way of the sacred army is the temple’s exploit.”

That is the meaning of the temple and the meaning of the high priests. He just follows it.

This war will not end until victory is achieved and the head of the one with the sprout of darkness is taken.

Levant’s eyes glowed eerily.

“Kill them without leaving anything behind!”

The priests’ holy magic poured out from the army that was getting closer.

Levant raised his sword again. His gaze sharply scanned the target for a brief moment.

If the dean had not been there, they would all have died.

The only reason I was able to escape from there was because the Dean was a wizard close to an archmage.

“Did you run away?”

Although he couldn’t escape the body,

Levant’s indifferent gaze fell on the miserable corpse with its head cut off.

It was a shame considering they would become Rinosa’s strength.

It would have been better to erase everything here.

The dean succeeded in using the movement magic just a short distance before the sacred magic and Levant’s sword could reach him.

The wizards disappeared in an instant and the sword of Levant split the air where the Dean was standing.

The holy magic that had lost its target hit the empty land directly. The surrounding air was purified and the magic dissipated.

Levant’s eyes suddenly frowned.

“conversation? “It’s a complacent idea.”

The main body of the temple was approaching behind him. Levant raised his sword hand up.

“Glory to the Lumens and the Temple of Light of Man!”

As he ran ahead, the temple army passed by, crushing the wizard’s body without leaving a trace.

*

“Oh my god.”

The Dean, who returned to the royal castle of Linosa, pressed his face down with his palm. The other two wizards also sighed with pale faces.

They were a kind of messenger. Cutting off a messenger’s head and sending it off is something that would only be done in a barbarian country.

They were not knights, but disarmed wizards. I certainly didn’t expect the temple to come out like that.

“Caesus….”

“There was no time to collect the body.”

A wizard groaned and the dean shook his head.

They were able to survive thanks to the Dean quickly completing the spell. It couldn’t be said that it was the dean’s fault.

“How did the conversation go?”

Xian ran out to greet them. The number has decreased by one.

As soon as Sian saw them, he knew what was happening.

“I failed. “They attacked us as soon as they saw us.”

As he spoke, the dean’s eyes moved.

On the other side, I could see Linosa’s Black Wing Knights in full line. The Archduke and Helmut, both wearing armor, stood in front of him.

Prince Rinosa and his successors. The rich man’s appearance was just like the picture.

“I’m glad you came back alive. “I felt like they were using divine magic.”

“okay.”

The dean walked away with a stern face. He went straight to stand in front of Archduke Rinosa and Helmut.

A determined voice came from the dean.

“As of this time, the Wizards’ Association will join Rinosa’s army to fight against the temple.”

A fire lit up in the dean’s eyes. A colleague was murdered before his eyes.

They were just trying to prevent war.

The temple has treated wizards as unclean and looked down on them for a long time. This time too, we just treated them like the lives of flies. Not worth talking about.

“I must personally receive the price for their lives today.”

I have kept my head down for too long.

But at some point, doubts arose. Is the temple still that strong? Are wizards that insignificant to them?

No, no. It used to be, but now.

Just as the cause of the temple was shaken, the time has come for the hierarchy and order they established to be overturned.

Here today the temple will witness the power of the wizard they have turned against.

Grand Duke Rinosa nodded gravely.

“Good.”

The Dean immediately reported to the Wizards’ Association that a high-ranking wizard from their group had lost his life.

This gave the Wizards Association an incentive to actively participate in the war.

Messages had already been sent from the Empire and Basor, and everyone was moving towards Latona.

However, the first thing you arrive at will be the temple.
