Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 96
Episode 96. 〈 Judgment of Heresy 〉
================
The drums sound. Banshees chant.
The priests around him resonated and were captivated by the beautiful words.
An aura of sacred power that even changed the minds of priests of the Chaolium Church.
It echoed all the way to the temple of the Chaolium Church.
But there was something different from then.
It is not a beautiful melody filled with love and mercy.
What depends on the sound is the ‘hostility’ emitted by the Holy Legion.
The priests could feel it.
The priests swallowed dry saliva.
The holy power within my body was shaken.
The priests, swayed by their emotions, were scared and took a step back.
From the top of the stockade they could see.
Berserker Kasim Derian.
He is coming.
He was once called a brilliant knight of light, but he was also rejected as a madman because of his religious beliefs that deviated from that.
“Shoot the bow!”
“Magic magic…!”
There is a lot of noise above the fence.
But no one thought of attacking.
They are afraid.
If you attack first, you will be hit back.
But hesitation on the battlefield was foolish.
Kasim Derian, who leads the Holy Knights, opened his mouth.
-Ah….
He let out a breath made of holy power.
He smiled.
Kassim Derian felt at ease.
I have never had such a warm rest.
This was salvation and a firm faith.
It was also a hope itself born of deep faith.
He died and was born again.
Holy power and soul made up of faith.
The wish he had longed for came true.
No, not all wishes have come true yet.
His eyes moved.
I looked at the followers of the Chaolium Church.
Offending beings.
They are corrupt and corrupt people.
Kasim opened his mouth.
-Believers who have abandoned their faith.
A cracked voice comes out.
-Fallen lambs.
He narrowed his eyes.
-To you.
Raise your sword.
-I will pass judgment!
For a moment, everything slows down.
Draw the sword. And struck down.
thud-!
The air expands. It compressed and exploded in an instant.
The blade of the wind flew fiercely and crashed into the fence.
The priests’ eyes widened.
As they looked down the barrier they had climbed up on, an explosion occurred.
A 10m long fence suddenly collapses.
A sharp piece of wood hit his head and penetrated his body.
“Aaaah!”
“Chi treatment!”
The priests moved quickly.
I tried to approach to save my colleague.
thud-! thud-! thud-!
A powerful drum sound was heard that made my heart flutter.
The priests raised their heads.
Legions of the dead move in the distance.
With their eyes flashing, they advance to kill them.
“Run away too…”
“Stop it!”
The priests raised their heads.
Their eyes turned to Cardinal Michael on the temple balcony.
“You are believers blessed by God. “Don’t give in to the dead!”
The priests’ eyes widened.
They looked at Michael.
“Your faith will soon become your true strength. We have the letters of God. There is God’s will. Gaia is with you!”
Michael rolled up his sleeves.
Runes are engraved on his sleeves.
The golden rune shone.
“God bless you!”
Michael’s voice resonates.
Aztalun, the letter of God, began to respond along with the words containing divine power.
The temple itself began to turn golden.
Aztalun carved throughout the temple.
It declares a temple on the outside.
Holy power dwells in the earth.
The sacred power engraved in the bodies of the priests resonates.
The feeling of fear gradually disappeared.
The priests’ eyes wavered.
Michael groaned when he saw that.
As expected, miracles that occurred without preparation were ineffective.
Michael declared, holding up the ranch.
“Save your comrades. And prepare to subdue the dead. “Aztalun’s opening ceremony will be held in the temple!”
The priests looked at him.
He is the highest priest of the Chaolium Church.
And he was the person who would become the Pope who would create a new religious view.
He is shouting directly.
“We are those who have God’s will. The sanctuary that first served Gaia will be with us!”
The two cardinals who were watching this widened their eyes.
they could see
A faintly trembling sight of Cardinal Michael.
Although it is a counterfeit product, it possesses the divine script called Aztalun.
He was trembling with fear at the army of evil spirits in front of him.
“Everyone… protect the sanctuary!”
The priests gritted their teeth.
The young cardinal also shouted.
“There is Aztalun. “We cannot give in to the dead!”
If they escape from this place, they will not be able to survive.
They will be hunted down by the Holy Empire, accused of being heretics, and ostracized.
I should have struggled instead.
Yes, we must struggle to survive and establish a new religious view.
Cardinal Michael, who has Aztalun, can fulfill that role if he becomes Pope.
Holy power coming from the Cardinals’ Shout Temple.
All these things dominated the emotions of the clergy.
The eyes of those who were scared changed.
The paladins moved forward.
Priests lift up and tie up injured colleagues.
“To the temple…!”
“Let’s go to the sanctuary. “It’s safe there!”
“Stop and stop the necromancer’s advance!”
The Holy Knights lined up in front.
Raise your shield.
They shared Michael’s feelings through Aztalune.
I can feel his faith.
Cardinal, no, Pope Michael will protect them!
A corps commander wearing mountain goat skull bone armor and riding a skeleton horse.
The 7th Prince’s gaze turned to the priests.
Their characteristics were visible.
Greed, corruption, pleasure, selfishness, etc. He has all the characteristics a corrupt priest should have.
It could be called a pseudo.
Nevertheless, their tendencies are changing.
Michael’s voice resonates and ‘belief’ is given to their characteristics.
Emotions heightened and fear disappeared.
Sexual power also increased.
The 7th Prince shifted his gaze and looked at the temple.
The temple that first served Gaia.
A powerful sacred power was emanating from the temple itself.
‘It’s a unique power.’
The power emanating from the temple?
No, that’s not all.
His eyes turned to Michael.
Cardinal Michael.
He was using the sacred power of the entire temple.
[Name: Michael Castia.
Age: 105
Characteristics: Strong faith, vast sacred power, owner of Aztalun, honest heart. Pure faith.
+ Humans must be honest with their emotions. Pleasure and greed are also emotions given by God. True feelings are solid faith!]
‘Solid faith.’
Unlike other clergy, there is no corruption, no uncleanness, and no cleanliness or impurity.
I can’t help but be surprised.
How can the leader of a group steeped in injustice, corruption, and greed for power be this clean?
He truly believed in his ‘justice’.
He attempted to establish a true religious view by leading the corrupt clergy.
He has no malice.
Looking at his characteristics, he believes in God and its essence even more than Archbishop Raphael.
Isn’t this truly ironic?
A person like that is an enemy of the Holy Kingdom.
But he went too far.
I touched something that shouldn’t be touched.
“Kill.”
The 7th Prince pointed his finger.
Then the dead cried out.
They ran.
The Holy Knights shouted at the top of their voices.
“Banjin-!”
The shield is placed.
“Pike!”
They raise their long spears behind them.
They are breathing heavily between their helmets and shields. They
are approaching in front of them.
The Knights of Light are Holy Knights and Kasim Derian, who leads them…!
“Oh oh oh oh oh!”
Let’s shout our cheers.
We have to wait until at least all the priests enter the temple to say their ‘prayer’ and use ‘Aztalun’ to fully use its power.
This is a defensive battle, and we have to defend until they achieve the miracle of God.
Just as he dealt with Archbishop Raphael.
-Heretics.
Cassim Derian’s voice rang out.
He stepped on the ground.
At the same time, the Holy Knight also prepared to follow him.
-You will be judged!
And Cassim’s body bounced as if exploding. .
The Paladins’ eyes widened.
In the blink of an eye, the Knights of Light appeared right in front of them.
They swung their weapons.
They exploded.
Flesh splattered, and shields and armor were torn to shameless pieces.
-Aaaaaaa!
Chanting. The banshee fired a bow.
An arrow imbued with holy power floated in the air.
One arrow split into dozens and hundreds or thousands of arrows rained down.
“Aaaah!”
It pierced the backs of the priests fleeing to the temple.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground shook and the bone golem and megalithic statue also moved.
“Shoot magic!”
The priests used magic.
Arrows of light made of holy power hit the bone golem and the megalithic statue, but they had no effect on the golems that were resistant to magic. The megalithic
Cyclops Golem’s eyes glowed.
The priest emitted a beam of light. Their bodies were turned into solid statues.
The bone golems were stomping around, swinging their greatswords and maces, throwing the paladins and priests into the air.
It was overwhelming.
The priests with no combat experience suffered a one-sided massacre.
The problem did not end there. .
The 7th prince riding a skeletal horse slowly approached the temple.
He summoned his staff and slashed it towards the ground.
The holy power spread.
All the priests who had been killed stood up staggering.
The priests who were taking refuge in the temple and the paladins who were blocking the dead. His expression hardened.
“What is that again?”
The priests who were my colleagues a little while ago have become ‘zombies.’
-Kyaaaaa!
I rolled my eyes and glared at the priests and paladins.
The zombies advanced and rushed at the paladins.
The paladins blocked them with their shields and their faces turned pale.
“This…”
was a disaster itself.
Michael gritted his teeth.
The believers are dying. If this continues, they will be annihilated.
He shouted to the young cardinals,
“The believers are being defiled. Prepare for Aztalun!”
“Currently in progress!”
“But the grand magic is complete. “I can kill that demon right now!”
Priests were praying at the windows of the temple.
What they are preparing is large-scale magic.
It worked.
Pierces the dark night.
A bright light shines from the sky.
The 7th prince raised his head.
A huge sword of light floating high in the sky.
A 10m long giant sword made of holy power is floating.
It was falling, falling towards the 7th prince.
“that?”
A divine strike created by the prayers of 555 priests inside the temple.
Heavenly sword.
It falls off.
Cut through the air.
The huge sword fell down harshly, as if it would split all the dead.
Seeing this, the Banshee Megalith and Kasim Derian made a joint attack towards the Heavenly Sword, but they all bounced back.
“Die, devil!”
The priests shout.
Cardinal Michael, who was on the balcony, also showed an indifferent look.
If that were the case, it would definitely be able to stop the 7th Prince.
The Heavenly Sword came before my eyes.
The surroundings were whipped around by the harsh wind.
Even after seeing this, the 7th Prince had no intention of running away.
Just raise your head and look.
Have you given up?
Just as the Heavenly Sword was about to completely strike him down, the 7th Prince swung his staff.
Tuk-!
The blade cracked before the Heavenly Sword even touched it.
It spreads like a spider web in an instant.
“…!”
Even the priests in the temple and Cardinal Michael, who was watching from the balcony, were wide-eyed.
The Heavenly Sword shattered.
God’s strike was shattered into pieces.
Holy power disintegrates and disappears.
“What…”
The staff held by the 7th prince.
The skill effect contained in Amon’s staff, which was advanced using divine energy.
[Skill invalidated]
“This is ridiculous…”
Cardinal Michael took a step back in shock.
He looked down ahead.
The 7th prince no longer approached.
Instead, megalithic statues were lined up around it.
Megalithic statues reaching 5 meters in height are clutching equally gigantic spears.
Cardinal Michael fell silent at that sight.
‘no way?’
The megalithic statues leaned back.
Grab the spear blade.
It’s a throwing posture.
“oh my god!”
Michael quickly turned around and jumped inside the temple.
The megalithic statue threw its spear.
A huge window pierced where the balcony had been.
Part of the temple collapses.
“Save me!”
The priests who were entering the temple were crushed to death by falling rocks.
The spear blade crushed two young cardinals who were escaping by squeezing through a narrow balcony. It
also completely tore off Michael’s lower body.
“Aaaah!”
“Cardinal Michael!”
The priests inside the temple quickly approached him. They
barely managed to pull Michael in.
However, his lower body had already been torn off and blood was pouring out.
“Ugh!”
Michael’s eyes rolled back as he felt pain for the first time in his life.
“Ah, Aztalune. Prepare for Aztalune…!”
“It’s done!”
At the priest’s words, Michael took a deep breath.
“Gaia!”
He prays,
“Pray for this poor lamb’s death, and revive his torn body with your grace!”
Michael screamed and pleaded at the top of his voice.
And the miracle of God came true.
Blood gathered. The
torn body was restored. The
lower body, which had been completely crushed, was rebuilt.
Michael, who had been losing his mind as his eyes rolled back, felt the pain disappear. He confirmed this.
His mind also became clear.
He stood up from his seat.
“Whew…”
He took a breath and exhaled.
At that moment, the wall in front of him collapsed again.
A spear blade flew out. A huge spear was thrown
into the corner of the temple. He digs into a corner and eventually reaches right in front of Michael.
“Foolish!”
He gathered all his strength from his entire body.
He stretched out his hand and pushed with his palm towards the end of the huge spear blade that was trying to push him.
Boom! The blade
of the spear was crushed.
The spear shaft was shattered into pieces and pushed back.
A human bet. This is an outrageous power.
“Gaia! Please restore the first sanctuary that serves you!”
At Michael’s cry, the spear blade fell out and
the collapsed temple was restored.
“Save us also, the believers!”
Even the injured patients who entered the temple and those on the verge of death were healed with light sprinkled on them.
Michael watched the scene.
The priests who had experienced the miracle themselves cheered.
This was the ‘miracle of holy power’ by the ‘declaration of the temple’. .
It was the power achieved by Aztalun.
The power to achieve miracles by maximizing the power of the priest.
Michael headed to the balcony once again.
The dead outside and the demon leading them.
“Allen Olfols.”
The 7th Prince looked at him.
The 7th Prince was looking at him with some surprise.
“Commander of the Demon Corps. You cannot defile this sanctuary! As long as Aztalune is there…!”
“Aztalun?”
A cracked voice mixed with sacred power came from the mountain goat’s skull.
Michael looked at him in surprise.
There is anger in the eyes inside the helmet.
Of course. He was the mastermind who tried to assassinate himself.
However, an emotional change occurred in those eyes.
“That’s right.”
Michael soon realized what that feeling was.
It’s greed.
He….
“It’s a good item.”
…He wanted runes engraved on his body.
