Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 95
Episode 95. 〈 Heresy Judgment 〉
================
Deep underground in the imperial palace.
In the place that was used as a warehouse, Harmon and the Holy Cross frowned.
A large study has been smashed into a wall in a corner.
The wall that had been there had been torn down, and a hole leading to the basement had been opened through it.
The surrounding area is covered in blood and the servants who managed the warehouse are dead.
‘Did they break into this place?’
The basement stairs leading to the outside of the imperial palace.
The inside is a complicated maze with all kinds of traps installed.
In addition, the magically constructed barrier was also sagging, so if an outsider invaded, an alarm would sound.
The only secret passage known only to the Holy Emperor and the members of the Golden Cross guarding him.
The place was reduced to a tunnel that helped the enemy invade.
‘His Majesty’s firm faith turned out to be poisonous.’
Who knew that the Golden Cross would transform the imperial court’s best swordsman, who thought he was being executed, into an assassin?
Harmon examined the condition of the dead servant.
The mouth is twisted and the fingers are cut off.
The front of the face is also torn.
It was similar to the torture techniques of the Red Cross.
They probably tortured him to find out what was going on inside.
Judging by the traces of magic, no sound would have escaped.
Harmon said, swallowing a groan.
“Get rid of the body.”

The prosperous Celt was very excited just a moment ago.
In a few hours, the 7th Prince will lead his troops to attack the Chaolium Church.
The first merit awarded by the successor to the Great Emperor.
I became even more attached to my grandson because it seemed like he was comforting me through the loss of Raphael.
So I prepared.
The reorganization of the five major electric powers gathered in the city square was completed by the successful person himself.
The fact that Raphael and 500 Paladins were defeated meant that the Chaolium Church was prepared.
He wanted to make sure he helped his grandson just in case.
But what is this?
While I was away from the imperial palace, something happened.
“What happened?”
The voice of the Holy Emperor rang out from the throne room.
The nobles quickly bowed their heads.
But I couldn’t say anything.
“A madman from the Chaolium Church dared to break into my imperial palace.”
For five minutes, Kasim turned the imperial palace upside down.
Even though the five major forces were concentrated in the city square and Oscar was guarding the royal palace, this was something that should not have happened.
The nobles lowered their heads in fear.
“The intruder was Kasim Derian. “Its strength is comparable to that of the Oscar of the Golden Cross.”
“Also, as the Golden Cross, we were aware of the imperial structure and vulnerabilities.”
“Because it was in the form of a golden cross, no one was suspicious of it moving around the imperial palace…”
The Holy Emperor radiated holy power.
“Who asked you to listen to excuses?”
Everyone was silent.
Seeing the nobles’ appearance, the Holy Emperor pressed his temples.
It was not a good time to vent his anger.
It was he who had neglected security in his excitement.
‘I can’t hold back any longer.’
The reorganization of the soldiers who participated in Aslan has been completed.
Now it is time for them to move.
“Get ready.”
The nobles looked at him.
“I personally led the Chaolium Church…”
Boom!
The door to the throne room burst open.
Everyone’s eyes turned towards the entrance.
7th Prince Allen Allpoles walked out.
When they saw him, there was a little excitement, but there was a lot of excitement. The anger subsided.
The 7th Prince stood in front of the platform in front of the throne.
The Prince did not even show respect for the royal family. He just
stood firm and looked up at Kelt.
Rather, Kelt felt satisfied with that sight.
“Grace period.”
The 7th Prince smiles,
“10 days have passed.”
He had a calm appearance, as if he was hiding his emotions, but not as much as his voice.
The words filled with anger and holy power made the surrounding air heavy.
“That means there will be no problem in eliminating the corrupt church.”
Hearing the words of the 7th prince, Celt showed a calm expression.
Perhaps he wants to step forward himself?
I have no intention of stopping him.
Cassim Derian is probably the end of what the Chaolium Church trusted.
“I will lend you Oscar and the five great forces.”
“no.”
The 7th prince shook his head.
“The minimum amount of power to move the fastest. And just prepare the healers.”
Celt narrowed his eyes.
“That can’t be possible. Your guy is now in good condition…”
“I will do it myself.”
The 7th prince interrupted Kelt.
Kelt looked at the prince.
Blood appeared on the prince’s forehead.
“I will cut off their heads.”
* *
I left the throne room.
Even though I tried to control my emotions as best as I could, the anger in my heart did not subside.
They deceived me and also hurt those who were related to me.
Although there have been many dangers, this has never happened.
Charlotte was waiting right in front of the throne room. She had her head down.
I smiled bitterly at that sight.
Less than two hours had passed since she woke up.
“Why don’t you rest? The wound must have been deep.”
“I’ve already rested. My wounds, too.”
She looked at me and smiled slightly,
“The prince cured me.”
Physical healing and mental fatigue are different.
She was currently overworking herself.
Still, she would follow.
The reason she came like this was because she knew I was going to attack the Chaolium Church.
Even though she knew that, I asked.
“Are you going to follow? ”
“I will follow.”
“It must be difficult?”
“The greatest pain I felt was when I first met the prince.”
I burst out laughing at that sight.
Come to think of it, when I first met her, we rushed at each other to kill each other.
I missed the old days.
“I’m going to compete.”
“Please do so.”
“The ones with the fastest mobility will also be the healers. Before they run away.”
I walked through the imperial palace.
“I hit.”
20 healers were prepared.
They were the best healers of the Seonghwangga, and among them was Ellis.
The minimum number of troops deployed was about 30 members of the Green Cross.
In terms of mobility, no one would be able to match them.
Each person in the Seonghwangga Unira, a descendant of a tamed unicorn, was given.
Charlotte and I also rode on horseback.
From here it is 10 days to the Chaolium Church.
If we take a minimum of rest, we can shorten it to 4 days.
Unira rides the tour . I stepped on the ground.
I ran through a strong storm and ran to the southern Chaolium Church.
After a short rest and sleep and running continuously, I was able to arrive at the Chaolium Church in the center of the forest.
On a hill covered with grass.
The Green Cross used a telescope to find the Chaolium Church. I looked at the situation.
I saw the Chaolium Church moving around busily.
In the late evening, they raised torches to light the brazier.
Paladins were seen improvised above and below the castle walls, and priests were encamped.
The confusion was extremely sloppy.
The battle A ragtag army with no experience.
It was the typical appearance of those who had begun to rot within the temple over thousands of years.
I drank water and glared at such a temple.
The Green Cross approached me, bowed its head and reported.
“There are about 500 people outside. “It is estimated that there are about 800 people inside the temple.”
It was fewer than I thought.
I heard that the number of priests belonging to the Chaolium Church was close to 10,000.
Still, the small number was probably because they were all spread out across the continent
. That was also the reason they were able to exert influence in the Holy Empire.
“What are you going to do? ”
Charlotte asked me about the report from the Green Cross.
I looked away.
The look in the eyes of the Green Cross and Charlotte was calm.
One word would be enough to attack the Chaolium Church, but it was too much with 30 people.
“Wait here.”
The reason I requested the minimum number of troops in the first place was not because I was careless.
These are supporters who will literally back me up.
During the fight with Kassim, I realized my limitations.
Close combat.
Only ordinary soldiers can deal with it.
A skilled swordsman can also use a chantless spear. I can push back with the dead.
But ‘monsters’ are different. If
those who have surpassed human limits make a surprise attack and engage in close combat, I will be defeated.
Even if hundreds of dead people camp in front of them, it is no use.
The strong are strong . Even after slaughtering those dead people, it will reach me and will push me to not be able to use Amon’s artifacts and magic.
This was my limit as a necromancer and priest.
But that was only when I couldn’t use magic properly. .
“Whew.”
I took out Amon’s skull and staff from the item window.
It only takes a few tens of seconds.
If you use the artifact first, those weaknesses disappear.
Kasim and King Rahamma. It can be blocked.
Charlotte came up to me.
“Prince, don’t overdo it.”
I smiled bitterly at Charlotte’s words.
Even though he was not a therapist, he seemed to know my condition better than anyone else.
Honestly, my head still feels dizzy.
I used an artifact to deal with Kassim, albeit briefly, and I am tired from the trip.
However, there was no shortage of dealing with the corrupt.
“30 minutes.”
I looked at the Charlotte and Ellis Green Cross Team gathered here.
“We hit them in that amount of time.”
That’s the most I can do right now.
It was also enough time to annihilate the Chaolium Church.
The Green Cross will be used to prepare for any unexpected events, and the therapists will treat me if I collapse from the side effects.
I took out Kasim Derian’s body from the item window.
thud!
The body fell to the floor.
A giant man over 2m 50 is kneeling and bowing his head.
I aimed my staff at Kasim’s head and struck his skull.
Kassim Derian.
A paladin with insane faith.
The one who will become my new guardian and puppet.
Holy power flowed into Kasim Derian’s body through the staff.
A haze of holy power fills my empty chest and envelops my entire body.
Now the Chaolium Church will realize.
Who did you touch?
“I am a legionnaire.”
The goat’s skull sucks my head.
“He is the successor of Gaia.”
Cassim’s eyes, which had been closed, flashed.
* *
The Chaolium Church was chaos itself.
“No, does that make sense!”
“Assassinate the prince? “Assassination!”
In the large square inside the temple, priests were shouting at Michael.
Michael pressed his temples.
Kassim Derian’s madness was deeper than I thought.
He captured the prince and tried him for heresy, but he tried to kill him as soon as he saw him.
Thanks to this, the negotiations with the Seonghwang family were now over.
You can’t waste time or run away.
The moment you leave this temple, their pursuit will begin.
‘But it’s safe here.’
This temple is its own territory.
There are thousands of priests, and inside the temple, the god’s own character ‘Aztalun’ is engraved.
This temple is his ‘sanctuary’.
“We must run away!”
“Even if I regret my sins and surrender now, the Holy Family will not accept me!”
That’s obvious.
Killing the prince, who was likely to become the next emperor, is literally the same as turning away from the royal family completely.
They were already traitors.
He was also branded a complete traitor.
The entire kingdom of the Holy Emperor became an enemy.
Any priest of the Chaolium Church was at risk of being ostracized as a heretic.
“If you run away, you won’t be able to escape their pursuit.”
At the very least, you need help from another country to seek asylum.
And there must also be someone to help them.
‘There is a suitable person.’
Michael took out a letter.
The mastermind behind the treason that is currently being discovered by the Prosperity Bureau.
‘Rose Darina.’
She, the second crown princess, is still alive.
Room, the kingdom of knights, where a civil war has been going on for three years.
There was news that the second crown princess was there.
After being warped, she moved from Aslan to the Kingdom of Rom with the help of her helper.
“For now we have to wait.”
Second Crown Princess Rose and her helpers were the only ones who could save them.
The letter has already been sent.
I just wait for her response.
I never would have thought that I would depend on the crazy second crown princess.
The priests sighed at Michael’s words.
“It is not a matter of waiting. “You never know when the Seonghwang family might attack!”
“Even if the Sword King comes.”
The priests looked at Michael in shock.
“You cannot attack me in this sanctuary.”
The priests fell silent at Michael’s words.
Michael rolled up his sleeves.
I see golden runes engraved on my hand.
“Aztalun Have you not seen the power of this?”
An overwhelming power that can overpower even Archbishop Raphael.
“If only I had this….”
-Ooooooooooo!
Michael and the priests’ faces hardened.
The entire temple resonates.
The air trembled and a voice imbued with holy power cried out.
“What…”
The priests’ expressions turned pale.
Although the energy of holy power is weak, it is a word that can cover the entire temple!
“come.”
This is the subjugation team of the Seonghwang family.
Cardinal Michael gritted his teeth and quickly left.
The clergy also hurriedly followed him.
They headed to the balcony.
Michael bit his fingernails in ominousness.
‘are you okay. There is Aztalun. This is my sanctuary. I am receiving God’s grace. Gaia protects me.’
I replay it in my head several times.
I comforted myself by brainwashing myself.
Then he arrived at the balcony and looked ahead.
At best, I thought they were just paladins from the Holy Empire…
but.
“Aaaah!”
“what. “What!”
“Cardinal! “Cardinal-!”
The paladins and priests of the Chaolium Church around the stockade outside the temple were in panic.
They looked ahead with eyes stained with fear.
Even though it is a dark night, bright light flows through.
The holy legions march.
I hear the sound of drums that makes my heart beat.
Dullahan, a skeleton army wearing armor and holding long swords, rolls their eyes and forms a line.
They advance with shields in hand and spears in front.
The bone golem and the giant stone statue moved.
The ground rumbled and banshees flew behind the golems, pulling their bowstrings.
Michael kept his mouth shut.
There was definitely a report that the 7th prince was summoning divine undead.
Also said:
All the people praised and worshiped him.
Although it was only a moment, Michael denied it.
At best, I thought they were at the level of Aslan’s lords.
They must have used other means.
It was such a foolish idea.
A miracle happened before our eyes.
A legion of divine greatness.
The commander who leads the corps.
A being riding a skeletal horse and wearing a mountain goat’s skull and armor is flashing eyes on a hill.
He raises his head, emitting an aura of holy power.
The being and Michael made eye contact.
‘Oh my god…’
Michael could instinctively know who that being was.
He was a man with the status of a saint and the seventh grandson of the Holy Emperor.
He was also praised as an angel even by his enemy, Aslan.
His name is Allen Allpols.
He came to judge himself.
“Cardinal Michael!”
Two other cardinals who were helping Michael spoke to him.
A young cardinal pointed with a trembling finger at the being leading the central vanguard of the undead army.
“That author…”
A paladin wearing armor of light.
About 30 Holy Knights walk in, radiating majesty.
In front of the Holy Knight, a giant is holding a great sword.
-Ooooooooooooo!
A being that cries out loud.
A giant reaching 2m 50 m tall.
A man wearing golden armor and holding a great sword in his right hand.
“Kasim…Derian.”
The person sent as an assassin turned up as a berserker.
