Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 118
Episode 118 〈 Big Eyes 〉
It was no longer a place that could be called a castle.
The walls were covered in tough flesh, and all the windows and doors were blocked.
Since there was no light coming in because there was no connection to the outside, Hans took a lantern out of his luggage, doused it with oil, and lit a fire.
By the bright light, I could see corpses strewn everywhere.
These are all people killed by Big Az.
They were all covered by tentacles and began to slowly melt.
Hans turned pale.
‘This is hell!’
Hans looked away.
Although divine skeletons escorted him.
-Kyaaaaaaa!
The sacred skeletons were also reduced one by one by the numerous dead coming out of the darkness.
After seeing that the sacred skeletons had stumbled and killed the dead, Hans swallowed dry saliva.
About 15 minutes have passed since I landed here.
Nevertheless, Hans miraculously survived in Big Eyes’ stomach.
‘I was lucky. Big Eyes isn’t killing me directly. ‘Why?’
Hans looked at the tentacles wrapped around the left and right hallways.
Big Eyes has already completely taken control of this fortress.
A demon that can control the entire body. Therefore, it was not strange to see tentacles with teeth and blades sticking out of the wall and chopping them up.
Hans shook his head, imagining something terrible.
-Kihihihihi!
The sound of laughter coming from the dark.
Hans was startled and looked straight ahead.
The space became distorted and my eyeball popped out.
At the same time, tentacles wriggled and moved on the wall.
The real hunt for Big Eyes has finally begun.
“As expected, I wasn’t following you!”
Hans screamed, covering his head.
He quickly moved his feet.
The divine skeleton stood in front of him to protect him, but it was no use. The skeletons could not withstand the tentacles flying from all directions and disappeared.
Hans turned around and tried to run away, but a large eyeball appeared right in front of him.
He instinctively stopped moving. I held my breath as long as I could.
Big Eyes observed Hans, who had become as hard as a statue, looking around as if he was enjoying himself. Tentacles slowly gathered around Hans.
A sharp blade with sharp teeth and a scorpion-like tail was aimed at Hans.
‘If this continues, I’ll die! Goddess Gaia, please, please. Please send a savior!’
I prayed desperately, but my hope was in vain.
In places controlled by Big Eyes, anyone who is not related to the summoner becomes prey.
By now, all of Irans’ knights, wizards, servants and maids in the castle would have been eaten.
You too will be like that.
Cold sweat broke out from Hans’ face.
The breath I was holding reached its limit.
Finally, Hans exhaled.
When Hans moved, Big Eyes reacted accordingly.
Tentacles attacked Hans.
“Get down!”
Hans fell to the floor, covering his head reflexively at the familiar voice.
Arrows of light sprayed out in all directions and pierced the tentacles.
Hans, seeing the tentacles bursting and swaying, raised his head.
At the end of the hallway, dead people with divine energy were seen.
It was a skeleton armed with various weapons and a ghost banshee holding arrows.
A blonde girl running at the head of such divine undead.
“Elise!”
Hans called out her name anxiously as he looked at her.
Ellis clinked the gauntlets in her hands.
Bang! Tentacles
came out from all directions, but Ellis evaded them with flexible movements. She
turned around once and then turned around. She exploded the tentacle with
a kick .
She threw out her fist, grabbed the tentacle, and ripped it off. She squeezed the large eyeball floating in the air and
burst it. Flesh splattered and landed on Ellis’ face, but she didn’t care.
Instead, she lifted Hans like a burden and placed it on her shoulder. Hans was amazed at Ellis’s majestic appearance.
“Oh! My God. How could you be here… There must be a real God. He listens to our prayers! Is Ellis an angel sent by Gaia ?
?”
“Now is not the time for admiration.”
Ellis hurriedly ran towards the skeleton army in formation with Hans.
The tentacles chased her, but the banshees fired arrows and hit her. Hans screamed and
asked Ellis, who was thrillingly avoiding the swirling tentacles,
“Prince . “Where are you?”
“…It became bait.”
“yes?”
Hans was dazed for a while, then realized what it meant.
Even a dragon, if it entered Big Eyes’ stomach, would become exhausted from fighting and eventually get eaten
. This is because of the numerous tentacles flying in from all directions and the ability to regenerate infinitely.
Therefore, no matter what army comes in, it will have no chance of surviving. It’s difficult.
However, Big Eyes focuses on attacking people who are judged to be the ‘most dangerous beings’ inside the body.
That’s probably why Hans has been able to live without being neglected until now.
Ellis continued.
“The Prince is Big. “You will get Aiz’s attention as much as possible.”
“Then now, Prince…”
Ellis struggled to join the sacred undead and put Hans down.
“You are looking for the body of Big Eyes.”
**
The necromancers of Nemesis were overflowing with confidence.
Knowing the characteristics of Big Eyes, they firmly believed that the warp gate they created was safe from any attack.
But that was just their delusion.
“Why, why… .!”
“Spirit King! Why on earth are you attacking us?”
The necromancers were in despair.
The bodies of the necromancers who were speaking were pulverized by the intangible sword blade.
Not even their bodies remained.
An insensibly large chunk of holy power completely pulverized them.
The narrow hallway exploded and fragments of the building collapsed.
The necromancers were crushed and screamed,
“Lord Amon!”
“Come to your senses!”
This was a one-sided massacre.
The necromancers of Nemesis pleaded
with their former master, Amon, the Necromancer.
Wearing bone armor, white breath flowing out from between the skulls of mountain goats.
Eyes flashing with bone greatswords slung over their shoulders. Yes.
The necromancers looked at the Necromancer King in front of them and shook their heads.
No, something is wrong.
That is not the Necromancer King Amon.
His appearance and power were similar, but he could not have had such a pure and clear energy.
Every place he passed by. Instead of being a swamp filled with death, a wave of holy water has emerged.
The dead are continuously gushing out from there.
Clearly, that is a different power than Amon.
Even though they are aware of it, they cannot even make a proper attack.
“They don’t resist . “Is it true?”
The Necromancer stretched out his empty left hand.
A dagger made of bone and a chain of bone joints connected to it appeared in his hand.
“Jeron Zied.”
This is the name of the assassins who first created the Holy Spirit in the Roman Kingdom.
Their souls are engraved on the dagger.
In addition, holy power was injected along with divine energy.
[Assimilation rate is created.]
[Assimilation rate 60%]
I swung my left hand.
The dagger flew away. The chains stretched out.
Bang!
The dagger tore through the limbs of the necromancers before penetrating the wall. The
connected chains tore down the surrounding walls and collapsed them.
Even the necromancers could not help but be horrified by the weapon containing so much holy power.
Necromancer They were scared and ran away in a huff.
“No. “That’s not Lord Amon!”
I’m not using magic.
They use great swords, daggers, and other miscellaneous techniques.
Its power is incredible.
Allen took steps in the dust.
Holy Spirit possession, used in parallel with Amon’s relics, brought quite satisfactory results.
“It’s definitely different when using artifacts.”
Assimilation rate: 60%:
Approximately three-fifths of your own strength.
If you add that and infuse Allen’s vast holy power, the power of the attack doubles.
-Kyaaaaaaaaa!
Eyeballs are engraved everywhere.
Big Eyes glared at Allen and let out a scream instead of a laugh.
As tentacles rushed in from all directions, Allen swung his great sword and crushed them.
The sacred undead stab their swords at the wall and cut it out.
The entire fortress shook as if it were shaking.
Allen recalled what Ellis said before leaving.
-Big Eyes will try to hide its heart-like body.
This place was the belly of an infinitely regenerating devil, and it was also a labyrinth.
It had the power to change the surrounding environment.
By making the paths cross, it is impossible to approach the main body.
However, infinite regeneration and blocking it with a wall did not mean that there was no pain, nor could it be prevented.
“Tear down the entire castle.”
Skeletons and skeletal horses appeared from the pool of holy water.
“Find the main body.”
The lieutenant cavalrymen raise their heads.
“Make them regret by causing them pain.”
He ran through the fortress, holding the lance and sticking it into the wall.
The golems raised their hammers and hacked them to pieces.
Hundreds of undead are destroying the castle.
Even Big Eyes wouldn’t have thought of this.
With this level of disturbance, Ellis and Hans would be fine since they wouldn’t be in Big Eyes’ sight.
At that time, Allen raised his head.
Some of the dead he summoned have reached the ‘main body’.
I was able to find out through shared vision.
“found.”
Inside his skull, Allen smiled.
Now you can see the face of the person who did this.
“I’ll show you what hell is really like.”
You will pay dearly for ruining your vacation.
**
Rudis exhaled harshly.
I barely managed to keep my balance and look ahead, leaning on my bone cane.
The sacred undead were disappearing, sprinkling light.
‘Holy Undead?’
There is a story that Rudis, who is dark about world news, also heard.
Matters pertaining to the prosperous legal kingdom.
Holy undead and the only person who can summon and control them.
Could it be that the prince of the Holy Empire came here?
When Rudis was trembling with fear and was about to open his mouth, it was none other than Big Eyes who spoke first.
-What on earth is that monster?
A large eyeball about 5 meters long with tentacles connected in all directions.
Big Eyes shouted.
As the mouths screamed in unison through the flesh clinging to the walls on all sides, Rudis covered his ears and groaned in pain.
Honestly, that was what Rudis wanted to ask.
I had no idea what was going on in this fortress right now.
From earlier, Big Eyes was shaking in pain, and the sound of part of the castle collapsing could be heard.
We also encountered an undead with unknown power a little while ago.
For the first time in my life, I felt anxious.
-The monster is coming!
Big Eyes’ large eyeballs trembled.
Big Eyes is said to eat even dragons if it can hide its body.
The ancient gatekeeper was frightened.
Rudis turned his gaze and looked at the warp gate.
A space distorted by more than 5m.
In that space, the dead are struggling with their hands.
There was a transparent curtain around it.
They tried to maintain its power as much as possible by blocking the warp connected to Purgatory.
‘Maybe I should have loosened it up a little more.’
The plan was to unleash numerous undead at once and devastate the city, but things went wrong.
The warp gate had to be opened even further now, even if it was unreasonable.
It was when Rudis reached out and tried to open the warp gate.
-Here he comes!
Big Eyes’ pupils got bigger.
Rudis looked away.
The wall covered with Big Eyes’ flesh was split open by the great sword.
Rudis quickly raised his cane.
The only opponents who could reach this place where Big Eyes’ main body was located were enemies.
So I had to do my best to stop him.
The person who destroyed this plan was revealed as he forcibly opened the cracked flesh with both hands.
Rudis stiffened when he saw that presence.
Take heavy steps.
Behind them, sacred undead break through the cracks, screaming.
‘The author…’
He walks over with his greatsword hanging on the floor.
The man with the skull of a mountain goat glared at Rudis.
A necromancer who leads the sacred undead army.
Rudis stiffened at the majesty and presence and could not say anything.
Even my mind went blank.
He denied reality.
‘Oh my god, how could this happen…!’
This is a face that Rudis also knows.
The head of Amon, the Demon King. And it is the bone armor he uses.
A being that I looked up to so much 50 years ago. The Demon King, who had not even paid attention to himself, appeared before his eyes.
‘Death King? No, that’s something else!’
I knew it instinctively.
The contents inside are different.
Holy and sacred energy.
It is sacred power, not magical power.
A being that is completely opposite to the Demon King.
The Absolute One who leads the sacred army and takes his place in front of it.
A person with the status of a saint known in the Holy Empire.
“You guy…”
Rudis swallowed dry saliva and spit out the words that came to his mind.
“Are you the Holy King?”
“No, I am.”
At Rudis’ question, the other person stopped.
He raised his great sword, aimed it at Rudis, and opened his mouth.
“I’m an adventurer.”
Allen grinned at Rudis.
