Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 102
Episode 102 〈Black Village〉
Baron Lava was terrified by the huge vortex of holy power.
Shit! This woman, not the boy priest, was the dangerous one.
Baron Lava quickly opened the blood-stained Bible and poured magic into it.
I turned the pages of paper and chanted a spell.
A spell to summon the dead.
Skeletons and zombies came out through the ground.
-Coooooo!
His eyes flashed and he raised his weapon.
Swords and spears made of bone flash.
Hundreds of skeletons and zombies lined up to fight against just one girl, aiming bone arrows.
But at best, they are low-level undead.
It wasn’t even an obstacle for her.
In a heavy rain, the dead jump in to kill Charlotte.
Arrows made of bone were shot.
Charlotte looked at the arrows.
There is nothing to avoid.
The pouring rain deflects all the arrows that the dead are shooting in a chaotic manner.
Charlotte moved her body and dug into the skeletons.
The eyes of the skeletons and zombies lowered.
Lowering her waist, Charlotte rotated 360 degrees and swung her sword.
Kwasik!
The knights who watched this were mesmerized.
Everyone exclaimed in exclamation at the beautiful sight.
The curve of the sword is extremely smooth.
The sword of white light cut the bodies of the dead in half, leaving an afterimage. At the same time, they turned into ashes and disappeared.
Charlotte continued to play with her feet.
Swing the sword smoothly as if dancing.
It formed a beautiful curve and flowed back and forth between the dead.
Spears and swords and maces made of the bones of the dead were swung.
But there was no need to even stop it. Reduce your body movements as much as possible and dodge lightly.
“Oh my…!”
Baron Lava was taken aback, and Charlotte’s eyes flashed and she stared straight at Baron Lava.
With every step taken, dozens of dead people disappear.
It moved forward quickly and smoothly.
A huge zombie warrior blocked in front of her.
The 2m tall figure stretched out his hand and tried to crush her, but Charlotte swung her sword from bottom to top.
A flash of light flashed and the zombie warrior split left and right and disappeared.
‘I can’t stand being bullied!’
Baron Lava looked at the Bible.
He rolled his bulging eyes.
I memorized the magic spell.
A stronger and more massive force had to be used.
Baron Lava raised his magic power.
My brain is so overloaded that it feels like it’s going to explode.
He looked at Charlotte.
She approaches. He swung his sword to cut through the dead soldiers and cut off his own head.
“…!”
Baron Lava widened his eyes.
At that time, Charlotte’s unstoppable body movements made a ‘pop!’ It stopped.
Her sword was about to touch Baron Lava’s neck.
The girl who cut down the dead in an instant reached right in front of the Baron.
“Huh…!”
Baron Lava swallowed dry saliva and groaned. He could feel the sword burning against his uvula.
Baron Lava carefully held his sword.
My fingers were burned by the holy power. But I didn’t care.
Because if you do it wrong, your head could be blown off.
‘Careful, careful…’
Baron Lava pushed away the sword and took his head back.
He was relieved and smiled.
His eyes looked at Charlotte.
The girl’s red eyes were unfocused.
It was under a spell of deception.
Baron Rava looked at the Bible again.
I see what she sees.
Charlotte She was seeing her ‘parents’ right in front of her eyes.
My mother and father turned into zombies and died.
The two people are smiling softly.
Baron Lava burst out laughing and stretched out his hand. The jagged teeth mumble.
-Oh my lovely daughter!
She will see the voices and sights of her parents.
Charlotte looked blankly at Baron Lava.
And then we gradually got closer.
Dew formed around her eyes.
My heart echoes with longing.
Baron Lava opened his teeth.
This girl is dangerous. If you use this much magical energy, it is difficult to maintain it for a long time. So, with one blow, cut off her neck…
Then the girl opened her mouth.
“no.”
Charlotte grabbed her sword.
Colorless eyes glared fiercely at Baron Lava.
A deep sense of death pressed Baron Lava.
“…!”
Charlotte draws back her sword.
I took a breath.
The cloudy eyes took on a bright light again.
Baron Lava screamed inwardly at that sight.
The deception magic has been lifted?
“oh my god!”
Baron Lava took a hasty step back.
At that moment, Charlotte’s sword swung.
Baron Lava’s right hand holding the Bible was cut from top to bottom.
The arm rose in the air.
Rotten blood and writhing maggots along with ash spewed out from between the severed arms.
“Aaaahhh!”
Baron Lava took a deep breath. His neck and face were swollen.
Black smoke spewed out from its punctured mouth.
The poisonous air was sprayed in all directions and colored like a black fog.
The knights fled in a hurry, and Charlotte held her breath and looked away.
Baron Lava was running away into the forest.
When she saw him, Charlotte pressed her temples.
He dared to insult his own parents, not just others.
A filthy vampire imitates the prince and his deceased mother and father.
“I don’t forgive.”
Charlotte gritted her teeth.
Distorted with anger, she ran towards Baron Lava.
**
A clearing in the forest with a carriage.
There are not only zombies, but also Dullahan and Ghoul Lycans.
They are mid to upper level undead.
Among them, the intelligent Lycans were nervous.
They looked at the boy and young man in front of them.
Although he is a low-level zombie, he possesses monstrous holy power that wipes out hundreds of opponents.
Such a dangerous person could not be allowed to hesitate or let down his guard.
-Kills instantly.
-Bite the neck.
-The opponent has already used magic in the village. You must have no energy or are exhausted right now. So kill it instantly.
The lycans gave strength to their entire bodies.
Muscles swell.
Its body was up to 3 meters long and it exhaled breath filled with magical power.
I lowered my back and howled.
At that sight, Varus pulled out his sword with trembling hands and shouted.
“What should I do? “There are no knights to protect us!”
Allen looked around and answered calmly.
“I told you. “I knew these guys would come.”
He holds up a musket.
A firearm on a long pole.
In this world, even objects that are merely decorations become weapons when he holds them.
Allen’s [magnificence].
The ability to ‘advance’ any object by one level.
He breathes while holding the musket.
The Lycans’ eyes flashed at that sight.
-Now!
-He prays.
-Defenseless for a few seconds. So, that guy…!
The lycans strengthened their legs.
Tendons sprout.
The ground crumbled and the lycans bounced off like springs.
They jump up, stretch out their hands and touch the ground.
It walks on all fours and surrounds itself from all directions, charging at incredible speeds.
“Prince, it’s dangerous!”
Varus held his sword and turned his back on Allen.
We need to buy time until we can pray. Only then can we overcome this crisis….
“It’s been a while since I had fun like this.”
Varus looked back in surprise.
The corners of Allen’s mouth curled up as if they were torn.
His eyes were as pure as a child discovering a ‘new toy’, but to Varus, he looked like a ‘devil’ engulfed in ‘madness’.
“What…”
Allen tripped Varus’ foot and knocked him down. And waved his hand in the air.
A dagger was held in his hand and he put it on the end of the musket.
Allen kicked the ground and jumped up to the Lycan.
The Lycans showed surprised eyes.
Because I had no idea that the other person was coming.
When the lycans stiffen in shock.
Allen swung the bayonet in his musket.
Suddenly!
The lycan’s thick head was cut off.
The lycans turned their heads.
Allen was seen right in front.
He holds the musket in his right hand. And the other left hand also held a musket, albeit in a different form.
Holy power was injected into two muskets.
A silent chant without a prayer.
It took only 3 seconds to breathe.
The musket is aimed right in front of the lycan’s head, left and right.
The Lycans’ complexions turned pale at that sight.
“Everyone run!”
bang-!
The two lycans’ heads exploded at the same time.
Three people were hit in an instant.
The Lycans hurriedly widened the distance.
‘The power is low.’
The power was considerably lower than when using a musket while praying.
but.
The lycans looked at the bodies of their dead comrades.
It turns into ashes and disappears.
The Lycans had cold sweat running down their spines.
‘Each blow is fatal.’
-Coooooooo!
The unintelligent zombies and ghoul Dullahan instinctively approached the living.
Allen looked ahead with the Lycan corpses on his left and right.
It is a legion of the dead numbering in the hundreds.
In the past, I would have been appalled, but now it’s laughable.
No, I’m actually excited.
Allen wrinkled his nose.
Although it was certainly a cold downpour, the stench of the dead and the smell of coal from the ash-dusted muskets irritated my nose.
My body trembled and heat rose from my skin.
I was intoxicated with excitement.
Allen closed his eyes, feeling let down by his emotions.
‘You can’t fool blood after all.’
Although it is not his own body, it is the body of the 7th prince, with the blood of the Holy Imperial Family flowing through it.
Priests who hunt down those with false lives and intuit their own abilities.
That instinct dominated reason.
I hate to admit it, but I find pleasure in hunting down the dead.
Allen raised the corners of his mouth.
Pick up a musket Put one back in the item window and prepare to pray.
-Don’t let them pray!
-Kill him with all your might!
The lycans rushed at that sight.
Zombies and ghoul Dullahans also attacked Allen.
Allen watched them all.
“Gaia.”
A group of ghouls attacked him.
He opens his mouth wide and swings his nails.
Allen rolled his eyes and stretched out his hand.
Golden runes are engraved on his body.
He grabbed the skulls of the ghouls and crushed them.
His head disappeared and his body fell to the ground.
“With your blessings.”
Golden rune.
‘Aztalun.’
Originally, numerous priests would have to pray and ‘declare sanctuary’, but if you use sacred energy, you can sufficiently strengthen your body with other abilities.
Even if it is unstable, it is fully usable.
The lycans open their mouths.
Stick the bayonet into the lycan’s mouth and pull it out.
Nails grazed Allen’s cheek and body.
Dullahan’s sword cut Allen’s back.
Blood flows from the wounds. But even then Aztalun healed him for a while.
“Love and mercy.”
They crush the limbs of the dead with their hands.
Cut it down with a bayonet.
The undead gradually piled up.
He trampled the writhing dead as a stepping stone and stood tall on the hill of the dead.
Allen lowered his gun.
The eyes of the swarming and squirming dead were all turned to the muzzle of the gun.
The swirling barrel of a gun
said, “Give to the dead.”
He unleashed his holy power.
A flash of light pierced through the small hill of undead and exploded.
Hundreds of mid- to upper-level undead disappeared in an instant, disappearing along with the light.
When Varus saw that, he kept his mouth shut.
Even the Lycans, feared by so many undead and knights, were unable to inflict fatal wounds on the 7th Prince.
Also, even after using his holy power like that, the prince of the Holy Empire was fine.
Even the injuries left no scars.
He stood smiling over the ash-covered corpse of the dead.
Upon seeing him, Varus felt fear rather than relief.
‘…no.’
That is the prosperous kingdom of law.
A group where each priest is turned into a monster.
He is also the head of the Empire of Faith who supports the second prince, Derian, and tries to capture him.
If these people step forward, the ‘army’ itself will be useless.
The ‘revolutionary army’ he leads will be brutally trampled without even being able to properly resist.
“Not yet,”
Allen began.
Varus looked at him in surprise.
“Is there one person left?”
Allen’s gaze turned into the forest.
He strengthened his vision with holy power.
He saw a maggot-like vampire running away in the distance.
He was running hastily.
From the looks of it, he was running away from Charlotte.
He summoned a long-barreled musket
. When used, the ‘Sniping’ skill is added.
Penetration and accuracy increase.
Allen aimed the musket at the fleeing vampire.
“I still have one shot left.”
The hunt isn’t over yet.
**
Baron Lava ran in a panic.
He didn’t even look back.
‘I have to run away. It’s a mission, and I have to live first!’ It
was strange
that such a high-level priest would come to a village on the outskirts of this country.
Could it be that the Holy Empire knows something about them?
Isn’t that why they came here like this?
‘No way…’
Baron Lava gritted his teeth.
The ‘woman’ who was with the Marquis.
A woman named Rose Darina, the second crown princess of the Holy Empire.
What if that woman actually deceived them?
‘It could be so!’
She is the second wife of Crown Prince White, who is known as the head collector.
How could such a woman have an affair with a vampire?
Baron Lava, who did not know the details, was suspicious of that woman.
‘Anyway, we have to get out of here…!’
At that time, Baron Lava instinctively looked away.
Something flashed in the distance
and flew in.
‘Death.’
That was engraved in my mind:
“Aaaah!”
Baron Lava instinctively created a barrier to survive.
However, the barrier he had created with all his might was broken in vain.
The bullet pierced his chest.
One-third of his body exploded in a spiral shape and flew away.
Baron Lava screamed. He fell to the floor without even being able to shout.
“Ugh… Ugh… Ugh…”
Baron Lava stretched out his hand and
touched the ground.
The mud had become so wet from the heavy rain that it was slippery and difficult to crawl on. I couldn’t.
Something bright stood tall behind Baron Lava.
Baron Lava was startled and broke into a cold sweat. He
could feel the sacred energy behind his back.
He creaked like a broken machine and turned his head.
A white undead radiating holy power.
A skeleton stood tall. At that sight ,
Baron Lava could not believe his eyes.
“Holy undead…?”
Baron Lava was startled and searched through his chest.
He pulled out a bloody letter from inside his habit.
It was a ‘watch list’ given to vampires. It
contained a list of ‘dangerous persons’ given only to vampires who participated in this mission.
Apparently, the ‘Marquis’ said as he handed over this list to himself.
-Avoid those who control the sacred undead.
At first, I thought it was a joke
. I thought it was a simple joke that vampires share among themselves since they only lived in caves.
But no, it wasn’t.
There is truly a holy undead before his eyes.
Baron Lava hastily opened the letter.
There, the face and characteristics of a boy priest were listed.
‘Allen Allfols, the 7th prince of the Holy Empire who hunted the vampire count with a musket.’
Baron Lava’s serrated teeth widened.
Hunting an earl?
He had touched such a monster himself.
“…”
Baron Lava stiffened and looked away.
The divine undead’s eye light curved like a crescent moon.
With a smile on his face, he grabbed Baron Lava’s leg.
“Sleep, sleep!”
Now there were only two things left for him:
torture and death.
