Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 432

Helmut

Episode 432

There was only one enemy, but that single enemy was now threatening them all.

They now know Helmut’s strength.

The terrifying strength of the author who single-handedly broke through the temple’s army and broke Lumen’s first sword.

The moment Helmut increased his speed, all the priests raised their hands.

A sense of fear rose as if a monster with its teeth exposed was following close behind.

They used up all their strength and poured out divine magic.

White magic poured down on him like rain.

Kiaaaaa! Kwashuk!

The whole place was dyed white. Helmut’s vision was also filled with white light.

Helmut had to avoid the desperate downpour of divine magic using only his senses.

It was like the rain of death for him who possessed demonic energy.

However, there were still more than a hundred priests, and it was nearly impossible to avoid the attacks of all of them.

‘Cut it down.’

How many times can that happen? However, he did not have time to estimate the remaining Vis.

A sword stained gray split the air.

With the sword, it destroys the center of divine magic, which has no physical substance, and makes enemies’ attacks useless.

Helmut didn’t know yet that they all had to retreat to the temple mainland.

The high priests and priests were alive and well, and this place was the center of their army. Behind him, the paladins were chasing him.

I don’t know how the battle is progressing on the side of Rinosa that I left behind, as many of the temple’s troops still remain.

Even if the Black Wing Knights fought hard, there was a high possibility that they would be pushed back due to the difference in absolute power.

Because he broke the barrier, the priests thought they were in danger and the troops at the front would also withdraw.

If that happens, the situation gets worse for him.

‘Then I am in crisis.’

Helmut calmly assessed his situation.

It was very bad.

But he definitely knew how to turn it to his advantage.

Capturing the high priest.

Because I had that in mind from the beginning.

He survived the torrential downpour of divine magic.

Quite healthy. Priests were seen a few steps ahead.

Gentle sheep who wouldn’t be able to resist even if a killer bursts in and swings a sword at them.

Without divine magic, they can only howl and do no physical harm.

But then I felt an enormous divine power.

The high-level sacred magic of the high priests descends like a huge net from above.

There was no space to avoid what was happening due to the time difference.

Even if you cut it with a sword, there will be a huge loss in Vis.

Helmut stretched out his hand.

He grabbed the back of the fleeing priest, lifted him up, and erected a shield.

He was quite a large man.

Quassss!

His pure white body served as a shield properly.

As soon as Helmut was captured, he threw the fainting priest to the floor.

Kugwagwang!

“Ahh!”

The body that was thrown towards the priests stopped only after knocking down several other priests.

‘It’s a good weapon.’

Helmut immediately kicked the ground and launched himself. The priests poured their holy magic all the way to the floor, but when he got right in front of them, they fled like a swarm of bees.

Those who turned their backs no longer had the strength to attack him.

However, the high priests attacked him with holy magic.

Holy magic that is more elaborate and powerful than that of priests. The spacing between the pours was also tight.

Helmut used the priest as a shield several times in a similar manner.

The damage was minimal, but the shield was not able to completely cover the area, so the exposed area burned.

Burn pain as if hot water had been poured on it. I automatically frowned.

‘Damn ministers. It’s like a spring that never runs dry.’

Even though they had exhausted their enormous sacred power, they showed no signs of losing strength.

The power of the divine magic pouring down on him was still there.

Helmut’s power is enough to burn dozens of people alive.

If he hadn’t found a way to use the priest as a shield, Helmut would have fallen long ago.

“OMG…!”

I saw a young priest who had twisted his legs and collapsed while running away.

The face that was white and struggling and staring at him was young.

Probably thirteen or four years old at most.

In his eyes, as he trembles and crawls backwards on his butt, Helmut will look like the devil.

Sympathy was a luxury, and there was no mercy that a priest could hope for for Helmut.

However, I didn’t feel like killing someone who had lost their will to fight.

puck!

Helmut kicked him, knocked him out, and passed him by.

As long as it prevents people from attacking the back of the head, that’s enough.

He felt that Magi had no control over him without needing to prove it to anyone.

The divine power in the air surrounded his entire body and left big and small scars. The presence of divine power that had passed through his body countless times until now suppressed the hot and destructive desire like murderous intent.

It has been like that since long ago. Even before sealing the sprouts of darkness…

Maybe that’s why their temples are a necessary evil.

‘I don’t want to admit it, but.’

While the priests in front was taking their time by randomly pouring holy magic at Helmut, the high priests also made a decision.

Immediately after the message arrived from Levina, one of the priests performed a return magic with the priests around him.

And the three high priests quickly ran away along with the priests behind them.

They steadily widened the distance while using divine magic as a check against Helmut.

A retreat order was also given to the front line that had already faced Latona’s troops.

Join the troops flocking this way and return to the sanctuary.

That was their plan.

To do that, you need to buy time. Someone who can stop the evil person in front of me. Sacrifice was necessary.

Who does that? Even the first sword in the temple was broken, so how can a priest who is weaker in battle than that?

High Priest Agato declared while continuously pouring holy magic towards Helmut.

“I will stay behind and hold your ground, so just keep in check and then step back.”

The eyes burned intensely on his solemn face. A look in your eyes that prepared you for death.

Everyone had the same mindset when going to the temple, but when death comes right before your eyes, you cannot be free from fear. It’s human instinct.

Therefore, the will of those who are determined in the face of death will shine until the end.

The ministers groaned.

“To do that.”

“High Priest Agato!”

Agato was the most influential and long-serving high priest among the high priests.

No one could willingly accept his sacrifice.

“hurry! “We must protect the temple!”

Agato raised his voice. Everyone followed Agato’s decision even if they hesitated for a moment.

“I’ll see you later in the arms of Lumen.”

For those who remain, there is nothing but death.

That evil man was strong, and even if all the power here were to attack him, victory could not be guaranteed.

I couldn’t give up on the temple, risking everything on that unguaranteed victory.

The situation would be truly critical if Priest Levina sent a message to them.

The decision was made to retreat, so everyone had to follow that decision.

Agato is now left alone.

He stood upright with his cane on the ground. Helmut tilted his head at the sight of the remaining figure and slowed down as if on guard.

Like I thought it was a trap.

The priests at the front attacked Helmut with all their might and wasted time.

With so much divine magic pouring in, the author will never be fine. Even though their priest’s life went out like a candle.

Feeling devastated, Agato tightly grasped his staff.

When I held the head of the cane and turned it, the lower stem fell off. It was a sword.

Agato was a paladin before he was a high priest.

As a Holy Knight, his swordsmanship skills were not outstanding, but his divine power was superior to that of anyone else.

So Agato became a priest and rose to the position of high priest.

He did not forget himself as a Holy Knight and continued to improve his swordsmanship.

Although his swordsmanship skills were not comparable to Levant’s, he was also a paladin who wielded divine power better than anyone else.

Therefore, it was most appropriate for him to stay. It wasn’t a useless choice.

He is also the most skilled priest among them in combat.

‘It might buy us some time.’

Helmut, who had actually reached him, was a little embarrassed.

They kept pouring out holy magic, so I approached them paying attention, but I didn’t realize that people were leaving.

Why is there only one person left here alone? Where did the others go?

‘Have you returned? ‘I don’t feel it exists.’

Could it be that a trick to obscure one’s senses was unfolding? Helmut had his doubts.

However, if they decided to retreat… there may have been some variable.

Aren’t they the ones who invaded Linosa with the intention of capturing and killing him no matter what happens and no matter what the cost?

Helmut remained tense and asked vaguely.

“Have you decided to get rid of me?”

“Helmut.”

Helmut was startled at hearing his name called for the first time. The high priests did not recognize him as a human being.

I just saw it as an evil being possessed by the sprouts of darkness.

But the high priest here was looking straight at him and calling his name. That sight was unfamiliar.

Helmut frowned.

“I know you.”

“You see, they were anxious because they couldn’t catch and kill me.”

Helmut put his hand on his sword as if he was bored. Would it be okay if I cut it while they were talking?

‘He looks like a high priest, but why is he holding a sword?’

Is that sword a holy sword or a sacred object equivalent to it?

The unexpected situation also required some calculations for Helmut.

The purpose of wasting time was clear, but the words coming out of Agato’s mouth were not lies.

“I saw you as a child. I remember each and every one of those I sent to the Forest of Pahe. “It was I who sent you, a newborn baby, to the Forest of Pahe.”

Helmut’s body flinched.

An unknown light flashed in his eyes. The posture was lowered forward.

Agato’s words continued as if confessing.

“It was unfortunate, but it was something that could not be helped. “Both then and four years ago.”

“But I am alive and here. “You failed!”

What came out of Agato’s mouth at that moment were words that Helmut had never expected.
