Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 45
Episode 45 The prince hunts beasts.*(Please read the revised episode 44 first.)
=========================== ===========================================
The Lycans were burned.
I couldn’t even cry out in pain. With its mouth open, it became a lump of black charcoal.
When the magic around him seemed to have disappeared, Raphael removed the cloth covering his eyes and mouth with both hands.
I groaned and gave up, as if I couldn’t even undo the chains that were tied to my hands.
“Ugh. It’s my fault. “Why do I serve the Seonghwang family?”
Raphael lamented his situation and crushed the Lycan by stepping on it.
I grabbed the key in the ashes and unlocked the prison lock.
Hilda nodded, looking satisfied.
“excellent. After all, he is the archbishop.”
“The princess is doing this too much. Do you know how anxious this old man was?”
“I trusted you that much.”
“Even if you say the same thing as His Majesty the Holy Emperor…”
“If I hadn’t come here, wouldn’t you have come too?”
“Yes, that is true.”
Hilda saw the dwarves.
“No one was hurt. It can also save everyone.”
Hilda smiled at Raphael.
“I have an opportunity to eliminate even the nests of beasts polluting my territory. Isn’t this a satisfactory result? There is no sure way like this. blast furnace.”
Hilda said, tapping Raphael on the shoulder.
“Let me ask you Raphael. “I need to get the animals’ attention.”
“…”
“I’ll support you after that.”
Basically, priests needed someone to protect them.
But he couldn’t ask the princess to protect him.
However, we cannot entrust protection to dwarves who do not have any equipment yet.
That’s one thing.
You have no choice but to suffer.
“Lycans are strong in close combat.”
“Isn’t your magic enough?”
“Are you telling me to chant without chanting?”
“Can’t we just pray little by little? “I think it would be possible for you, right?”
“There is no ranch.”
“It’s okay. “You can do it.”
“Because I’m getting older too.”
“Please.”
When Hilda smiled and spoke, Raphael groaned.
I might have to suffer from muscle pain for two days.
“What I regret most in my life is serving the Seonghwang family.”
“We, the Seonghwang family, consider it a blessing from God to have a loyal subject like you.”
As expected of Celt’s granddaughter, Hilda was not pushed back an inch.
‘I’m an idiot who won’t live long either.’
It’s so extreme that someone might think she’s Celt’s granddaughter.
Think about it. Among these princesses, who would become a hostage?
These people from the prosperous family don’t know how to control themselves.
He turned the imperial palace into a sea of blood and was now taken prisoner so that he could identify the enemy’s camp and cut off its leader’s head.
Still, grandchildren are better.
In Seonghwang’s case, he faced the Four Spirits King alone.
How numb I felt back then!
The thought of his granddaughter serving these bloodlines and suffering was overwhelming.
“Please. Raphael Astoria.”
Raphael looked dissatisfied at the princess who said her full name and sighed.
“Then let’s pray here first…”
Raphael closed his eyes.
“Gaia, the goddess of life.”
I gathered my strength.
“Your faithful, Raphael Astoria, wishes.”
Holy power formed in my body and I was absorbed into the surroundings.
“Give me a shield to block the dead…”
An intangible shield made of holy power appeared in front of Raphael.
“Give me a sword to pierce the dead.”
A sword engraved with light was summoned around it.
Raphael narrowed his eyes.
* *
Red Moon thought she was smart.
Not only did they escape from the rule of vampires, but they also established themselves here and increased their power.
Moreover, knowing that the dwarf and the princess were close, they brought the princess as a hostage.
Look! The Seonghwang family, which even vampires were desperate for, is now acting according to its own will! If you use this, vampires will no longer treat you like pets.
Red Moon was filled with arrogance.
Then Red Moon sniffed.
“…Sacred power?”
I felt the reverberation of holy power. For a moment, goosebumps appeared all over my body.
My hair stood up.
A shiver ran down my spine and a sense of fear washed over me.
He quickly ran down the cave passage.
And then he stopped and looked ahead.
Lycans were on guard in the dark.
It growled and rushed at me, but the lycan I jumped into was pinned against the wall.
ㅡ…!
Red Moon looked at the Lycan with the ‘Sword of Light’ embedded in it.
The lycan howled in pain and then burned to extinction.
Red Moon looked away.
And I could see it.
A thin old man was walking, wearing a shield made of holy power.
“This wasn’t the picture I wanted.”
Raphael whetted his appetite.
The reason he was dispatched here is to subdue Lycans.
It involved searching the forest for a long time, escorted by the Red Cross and assisted by the Green Cross, without a single person being injured.
And his role was to discover the nest and subdue the progenitor Lycan.
Raphael shook his head and looked at Red Moon.
“Gaia.”
Raphael put his chained hands together and bowed his head in prayer.
Holy power amplified and gathered around him.
The lycans trembled in fear.
Red Moon’s eyes were filled with fear.
This is a cemetery. In this place, which was closer to the shadows than the sun, an incredibly vast amount of sacred power gathered.
I had to kill him before the prayer was completed.
-What are they doing! Kill it!
The lycans rushed in.
“I receive your protection…”
Raphael opened his eyes and glanced at the Lycan.
Holy power gathered in the air and formed the shape of a sword. The blade of light flew straight through and pierced the Lycan.
A silent chant without a prayer. Also, he uses magic in multiple ways.
“This lowly believer kills the dead…”
Other undead are coming. I was blocked by the shield of holy power and was struggling.
“Help me to be saved.”
In an instant, light emanated from Raphael’s body.
The Lycans that were running towards me burned up and disappeared.
Red Moon’s eyes, which were watching, became bloodshot and blood spurted out.
ㅡAaaah!
Red Moon covered her face. My whole body was burning with sexual power.
I fell back in terrible pain.
Then the ground shook.
Red Moon looked away, shedding bloody tears.
Dwarves were visible in the dim gaze.
He was holding various weapons made for Lycan. Among them was Hilda.
She holds a spear and has an arrogant expression.
The old priest is killing the lycans, and the princess he had imprisoned has escaped.
Red Moon gritted his teeth.
-It’s ugly. Princess! When have you been fawning over me and now you’re pointing your sword at me?
“blarney? “What are you talking about?”
Hilda, holding the spear, tilted her head.
And he nodded as if he remembered something.
“It seems that taming animals was surprisingly easy.”
Hilda curled the corners of her mouth.
She glared at Red Moon with cold-blooded eyes.
“To be honest, I like you too.”
-Then…!
“I just need a new taxidermy to decorate the castle.”
Red Moon’s face hardened.
“There are dwarven artisans here. If you catch it alive and have the dwarves work on it, you will end up with a very nice taxidermy. Or, it would be a good idea to give it to His Majesty the King as a gift.”
Hilda smiled.
“Only if you catch the progenitor lycan and offer it as a gift will your contribution be recognized. “Isn’t this a good result?”
Hilda adjusted her spear.
Red Moon’s expression twisted with anger.
-What a crazy bitch…!
“You know very well. “Our prosperous family…”
Hilda adjusted her spear and lowered her waist.
“You can’t hunt monsters without going crazy.”
ㅡKoooooo!
Red Moon bowed.
His black fur turned red with anger.
My whole body swells.
Muscles swelled and tendons sprouted from between the fur.
Red Moon bent down in the cramped cave.
He glared at Hilda with angry eyes.
-She seems like a woman who doesn’t even know honor. Four years…
Hilda closed her eyes.
“Heim, the god of battle.”
Red Moon was furious and ran towards her.
“Protect Hilda!”
The dwarves gathered in full warmth.
Raise the spear.
Red Moon ignored those dwarves.
Spears pierced my entire body.
With the spear stuck in the thick lycan body, it whips the dwarves away.
And when he swings his claws at Hilda.
“Give nimble legs to your followers.”
Hilda opened her eyes and looked at the Lycan’s hand.
slow. The sharp fingernails were on the verge of touching her face.
But I avoided it in the blink of an eye.
It moves leaving an afterimage.
Hilda crawled into the arms at a speed that was incomparable to that of the Lycan.
“God’s protection on the battlefield to the spear of the believer who serves you.”
Holy power resided in the blade of the spear.
Hilda stepped on the ground and stabbed the spear into Redmoon’s chest.
Phew!
The blade of the spear penetrated Redmoon’s chest.
It exploded in a spiral shape around the window, creating a hole.
Dwarves on both sides stabbed their spears together and pushed away the Red Moon.
ㅡKaaaaaaaa!
Red Moon stepped back.
Hilda said as if she was not satisfied.
“Can’t you just be quiet for a while? “Isn’t it okay for the stuffed animal to be sent to His Majesty the King to be damaged?”
-You freaks!
Red Moon glared alternately at Hilda and Archbishop Raphael.
It’s a monster. He was so crazy that he could not be compared to vampires, and his power was far superior.
I felt like I finally understood.
Why were the vampires so scared that they lived quietly among humans? I realized why even the founders of the vampires did not touch the Seonghwang family.
These were cruel, crazy, and dangerous beings.
“You know very well. Dead man. “We are monsters.”
Red Moon turned around at the old man’s voice.
Raphael, who had reduced all the Lycans to ashes, was approaching.
“…I have to become a monster to hunt you.”
The sword of light pierced Red Moon’s back.
My spine is burning. I felt my spine and internal ribs melting.
“Choose. How will you die?”
Red Moon gritted his teeth and looked ahead.
Hilda slowly approached Red Moon.
“Are you going to be stuffed? Or…”
Red Moon looked back.
“Are you going to burn to death?”
Raphael said.
Red Moon sweatdropped.
The two monsters are gradually closing in.
Red Moon took a breath.
ㅡKaaaaaaaa!
He screamed and ran to Hilda.
She grabbed the spear, lowered her waist, and snuggled into him.
“It’s a good choice. “Welcome to taxidermy.”
Hilda and the dwarves stabbed their spears.
Red Moon blocked it with his hand.
The hand was pierced and exploded by holy power. My whole body was pierced like a hedgehog.
An arm the size of an adult fell to the floor. Nevertheless, Red Moon ignored her and passed through the cave.
Hilda clicked her tongue.
I never thought I would throw away my arm.
Red Moon shed bloody tears. Ash flowed from the lost arm.
I hurriedly passed through the cave and went up to the underground cemetery.
The lycans around him looked at him in confusion and then burned away.
Red Moon’s fear grew stronger as he heard a terrible sound behind him.
-Save me… Save me…!
There is still a chance.
will survive It had to be that way. I can’t die like this.
-Help me… please…
He ran through the forest, sobbing. I turned my head and looked back.
Two monsters appear at the entrance to the cemetery, their eyes glowing red.
Red Moon’s eyes widened.
I twisted in fear and screamed.
ㅡAh…ahhhhh!
In the Red Moon Forest, he was just a weak beast.
* *
That was a long time ago.
-You all call me princess!
The dwarves looked at the girl who was smaller than them.
She is a girl who is only about 12 or 3 years old.
Perhaps because he is still young, he is smiling mischievously.
She confidently placed her hand on her chest and tightened her neck as she spoke.
-I am Hilda Orfols, the first princess of the Holy Empire! This is the body that will become your master from now on! Ahem!
It was amazing that such a young girl was saved from slavery. Additionally, the dwarves could not help but be confused by the temporary management of Hilda’s territory.
-Please take care of me in the future. Little kids!
That was the first meeting between Hilda and the dwarf.
-It’s not my pee!
One day Hilda peed on the blanket.
Hilda cried, but the dwarves laughed.
Hilda kicked the dwarf’s ass.
The dwarves saw Hilda learning how to use a spear.
Hilda fell on her butt due to the sloppy movement.
The dwarves helped her up and made a spear suitable for her.
When she came of age, she stayed at the Seonghwang family for a while and learned spearmanship directly from the Seonghwang. He also inherited all authority over Hilda’s estate.
Over the years, the dwarves watched her grow.
Hilda gave the dwarves freedom and provided them with a home.
In return, the dwarves served Hilda, cared for her, and raised her.
Dwarves were there every moment she was growing up.
To the dwarves, Hilda became the most precious human.
After hearing Belog’s words, I could understand why the dwarves were so obsessed with her.
I said while looking at Belog.
“Well, that’s just like my father.”
Belog was surprised and shook his head.
“There is a difference in status. Please speak carefully. We were originally slaves. How dare you be Hilda’s father. Besides, you shouldn’t say things like that now that the crown prince is away.”
Even though he says that, he doesn’t seem to like being called father. There was a happy smile on Belog’s lips.
Dwarves wearing silver armor camped out.
They passed through hard dark trees.
It is a place called Red Moon Forest.
“Is this the lycan habitat?”
“That’s right.”
The Green Cross members rolled their eyes.
They scattered around the ground and headed somewhere without hesitation.
“Wouldn’t lycans just have to burn down the forest to survive?”
“Unfortunately, the trees in the north are Nordin Wood. It is even called steel made of wood. Not only does it have the property of being incombustible, but it is also the best resource after mines.”
Its sturdiness is comparable to that of steel, making it an expensive resource.
Just a few months ago, the lycans were not active to this extent, so there were no problems with the work. However, as the vampires disappeared, the lycans seem to have become more ferocious.
I looked away.
The Green Cross team moved quickly, searching the surroundings.
I asked the Red Cross.
“Isn’t it somehow fast?”
“What do you mean?”
“Didn’t you know about the habitat of lycans?”
The Green Cross unit moves quickly.
The dwarves and I, the Red Cross, were receiving directions from them.
The Red Cross looked at the Green Cross and said.
“They are forest experts. “We are probably looking for traces of Hilda based on her husband who was taken away.”
“I think it’s too fast for something like that.”
“What we do professionally is different. We are the judges. “If you torture and find out or punish the informers…”
The Red Cross looked at the Green Cross.
“They are trackers. “We mainly collect tracking and hunting information.”
The Green Cross was nimbly running around and scanning the ground.
I called them.
“hey!”
At my call, one of the Green Cross units quickly approached me, knelt down, and bowed my head.
“Do you know where your sister went?”
“There are traces.”
The Green Cross pointed its finger to the floor.
“This is a trace left behind by Hilda.”
I stared at the ground. And then I looked at the other bare ground.
There are slight dents.
But it wasn’t much different from bare ground.
I looked at the Red Cross and they shook their heads as if they didn’t know.
The Green Cross nodded as if they understood.
“It’s a trace that only we know. Step on your feet and carve a footprint that is as close to nature as possible. However, because the traces are faint, there is a risk that they will disappear if left for a long time. “Lycans probably couldn’t care less about this.”
As a lycan, I guess I never thought that humans would leave traces with footprints on this dry land.
At that time, a familiar odor came into the air.
I held my nose and frowned.
I rolled my eyes and looked into the forest.
“Everyone prepare for battle. They are coming.”
A lycan with red fur covered in scars all over and other creatures were running towards this place.
