Infinite Mage - Chapter 840

Depression (4)

Habitz’s army made a bloodless entry into the capital of Kashan.

White flags were hung from every house, and residents had their heads down in fear.

It’s not just because we lost the war.

The vanguard had already swept through, so the streets were littered with corpses and the smell of fresh blood was in the air. Sumodo, holding a toothpick in his mouth, smiled.

“You were quick to grasp the situation. After all, she is the Empress of Kashan.”

I thought the Balkans weren’t over yet.

“I heard there was a succession ceremony to the throne. “Why does it matter if we’ve already lost the war?”

“I guess they are planning to negotiate while hiding the Empress. It’s good to receive it if the conditions are met. “It’s enough for us to enjoy it anyway.”

When we arrived at the entrance to the imperial castle Aganos, the army of hell completely surrounded us on all sides.

When the door opened, the true scenery inside the castle was revealed.

“

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

The torture device was again connected to musical instrument-like objects placed in all directions along the mechanism.

“It was made by Zetaro.”

As he crossed the outer castle gate, a demon who had contributed greatly to this war approached Habitz and bowed his head.

He was a handsome man, a little less than two meters tall, wearing black iron armor studded with thorns.

Amon, commander of the 7th Army Corps of Hell.

He is one of the 10 military commanders who are said to be Satan’s direct lineage, and uses an iron sword heated in the fire of hell.

None of the demonic corps commanders were weak, but among them, those ranked in the top 10 had a different level of force.

“I was waiting for you, Satan.”

Habitz’s appearance did not go beyond that of a human, but it was clearly visible to Amon.

The four red triangles floating above the top of Habitz’s head were the sign of his being outside the law.

Vulcan asked.

“Who is the ruler of Kashan?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people appeared from the side of the inner room door.

They were Gando, who had just become emperor, and the highest nobles who had ruled Kashan so far.

Amon said to Habitz.

“This is an event prepared by Zeta Law to commemorate this victory. I hope you enjoy it.”

After saying that and giving instructions, 100 members of the music troupe made up of demons lined up in their respective positions.

Red-skinned female figures with hair made entirely of tentacles stood holding musical notes.

The short, plump conductor looked around the orchestra and waved his baton.

As numerous instruments were played.

“……r

More than a thousand humans began screaming at different pitches.

From the moment the first note was sounded, the nobles, including Gando, felt like all the hairs on their bodies stood on end.

‘Awful guys.’

Gando gritted his teeth and held on.

“Hell’s army!”

The vocal band puffed out their abdomens and sang to music made from human screams.

The torture device, which moved with a pounding sound every time the instrument was played, squeezed the human voice even more strongly.

“A world of chaos!”

It was truly a song from hell, and even Balkan and Sumodo were deeply impressed this time.

“He’s really killing it…

Zetaro is a genius.

Habitz didn’t seem too bad, but all he could do was listen to the music for a while and then burst into laughter.

“Please go.”

As Amon led the way, Havitz and his group passed the vocal band shedding tears of emotion and approached Gando.

‘It’s not boring. But…

Hong felt broken just by the fact that the person who greeted him was not Wu Orin.

‘What I want to hear is the Empress’s song.’

Although Habitz did not have to personally greet the emperor of the surrendered empire, he boldly approached him right in front of him.

“What about Wuorin?”

Gando, who had already prepared everything, bowed his head politely.

“It’s in the castle. However, before I meet her, I have something to propose to you as emperor of the Kashan Empire.”

Vulcan sneered.

‘I knew it would come out like this.’

“I will hand over the rule of Kashan. You can moderate me, but if it makes you uncomfortable, behead me. I just hope we don’t see any more blood. Please guarantee the lives of the people.”

The faces of the highest nobles were filled with emotion.

‘I’m sorry, Her Majesty.’

It was a decision to ensure the safety of the country by giving up the honor of Theraje and even selling his own body.

Habitz looked at Gando with indifferent eyes.

Although his eyes had no intention of analyzing anything, Gando became dizzy from the endless chaos.

‘Mother…

Last evening, Wuorin called Gando.

“If this continues, we will lose the war. Even the temple’s help is limited. Kashan will soon be destroyed.”

Gando didn’t care.

It was definitely a situation where I should have been angry and despairing, but for some reason there was no emotional fluctuation.

Perhaps it was because Uorin’s face was pale, unlike usual.

‘Mothers also have fears.’

She knew no defeat with her ability to encompass history, but from the Great Purification Period, she entered unknown territory.

Worst of all, the opponent was the chaotic Habitz.

“I will find a way. With the help of the remaining troops and the power of the temple, we somehow found an escape route…

“No, we can’t escape Habitz with that. All methods were explored. I also thought about how to have a good ending. And the decision I made was as Wuorin looked up at Gando.

“I must live.”

He had an expression like a frightened rabbit, but his eyes were still burning with the will to live.

“I’m not afraid of dying. Even getting caught by Havitz… can be endured. But I want to live in Gando.”

Gando realized what Wuorin was going to do.

‘Focus only on living.’

He planned to survive by throwing away everything, including Kashan’s history, Terase’s honor, the lives of his officials, and the lives of his people.

‘I’m not angry that Terraze…

abandoned the emperor’s responsibility.

He hated the way she, who had risen to the top of the world, was so desperately obsessed with life.

“Mother, I would rather…

“Please save me.”

Gando couldn’t say anything.

Gando, who escaped the chaos of Havitz, said.

“That’s all we hope for. “If you accept our offer, we will open Aganos right away.”

Vulcan asked.

“What if I refuse?”

“By then, Kashan will be destroyed. But the Gustav Empire will never get what it wants.”

“Uorin.”

Habitz opened his mouth.

“Where is it?”

Gando pointed to the highest level of Aganos.

A white-haired woman was looking down from the window just below the fluttering white flag.

“What do you want to do?”

Habitz, who had been looking up at the spire for a long time, opened his mouth.

“Amon.”

Amon, wearing iron armor, approached next to me.

“Kill them all.”

As soon as the words fell, Amon’s sword passed by leaving a black afterimage.

The bodies of all the nobles, except Gando, who turned into electricity and disappeared as if evaporating, were split in two.

“Aaaah!”

The maids and servants who were further away ran away screaming.

“damn!”

Where the crowd was separated, Gando, who had cast the spark spell, was frowning and lying face down.

‘Did you notice?’

No, I just did what I felt like.

‘He is definitely the Empress’s natural enemy.’

Now that Plan A had failed, Gando’s eyes were focused on Havitz, who was just 20 meters ahead.

‘If only I could kill him…

I was giving up my life anyway.

Gando, who cast spark magic towards the army of hell, cast lightning in front of Havitz.

“Aaaah!”

Complete liberation that leaves no room for magical power.

Blue electricity spread out in all directions, scratching the air and causing a huge explosion.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

‘I missed it!’

Amon’s subordinate, a division commander-level demon, was holding Habitz and rising into the sky.

Sumodo sighed in relief.

‘If the demons hadn’t helped, would Havitz have died?’

Vulcan came to the side with his sword drawn.

“Don’t think of sumo as complicated. “Just keep that in your head, you won’t die.”

“…Right. “Okay.”

Kashan’s Guards were on the offensive, but the 7th Corps Commander’s direct troops were also formidable.

“Was it a trap?”

Vulcan shook his head.

“no. Until a little while ago, no one was caught in the crowd. “I was really trying to surrender.”

“Then why on earth?”

Vulcan smiled bitterly.

“You’re truly amazing, Terase.”

They wanted to live even if it meant killing nearly one billion people.

“Go to the spire!”

Amon flew to the spire in an instant, grabbed the woman standing at the window, and came down.

A woman with dyed hair white was trembling with fear.

“Please save me…

She was trying to beg for her life and cried out.

“Long live your Majesty the Empress!”

Balkan, who had cut off his head with one sword, looked back at Gando, whose strength had been exhausted, and asked.

“Woorin. “Where is it?”

Gando only raised one corner of his mouth with difficulty.

While the five stars remained silent, sticking to their respective philosophies, other stars began to argue.

Minnie jumped up and shouted.

“We must go to Kashan immediately! When the Three Emperors World collapses, the power of the demons will become even stronger!”

“Why should we do that? Kashan tried to join the demons. “Humans will do anything for gain.”

“I agree. It’s a human thing anyway. The Ivory Tower pursues transnational goals…

< Beopsal > screamed once again.

Kyaaaaa!

As if it were a lie, the voice disappeared and all the stars turned to look at Sirone.

“That’s enough.”

Ivory tower.

The pinnacle of the magical world that pursues only academics without being swayed by any power.

“I’m going to leave the ivory tower.”

Minerva asked with a surprised expression at the unexpected remark.

“Shirone, what are you talking about?”

“Don’t misunderstand. It’s not that I’m angry or disappointed. “Everyone here is right.”

The problem is that everyone is right.

“You’re not running away?”

Freed said without even turning his head.

“I was friendly with the Empress of Kashan. You step back. I don’t know how it became the Five Great Provinces like that. We care for the world as a whole. If you really want to benefit the world, do it right here. Press us.”

“no.”

Sirone was adamant.

“Now I understand what you’re saying. “He said he came up here because he didn’t want to get involved with humans and was tired of arguing.”

“okay. “That is the ivory tower.”

“So I’m going to go up.”

To a higher place.

Only then did Sirone open his mouth, glaring coldly at Freed, who had turned his head.

“I’m sick of being tangled up with you guys.” Freed’s face turned red and Thing looked at Shirone with an expression of interest.

Minerva burst into laughter.

‘okay. That’s how you are.’

Sirone caught the < Beopsal > trembling in the air and approached Taeseong.

“If you leave from the North Pole, it will be late. “Please get me out of here.”

“…Outside is space.”

Sirone looked down at the blue planet reflected beneath the transparent glass floor.

“Because it’s the fastest way.”

“all right.”

Although it was a situation where he left the large meeting without permission, Taeseong seemed strangely in a good mood.

‘Yes, Sirone. ‘The position you want to go to is something more than the best.’

And one day, you will clash with me for that one and only spot.

‘Matterie Earl.’

When Sirone radiated the light of Yahweh, a transparent sphere was created around him.

Minerva nodded.

” aha??????

If you can penetrate the atmosphere, you can go straight to Kashan.

When Taeseong raised his hands, the glass sphere containing Sirone floated up to the ceiling.

“Remember, Shirone. You said you were leaving the Ivory Tower, but

in an instant, the glass sphere escaped outside the Earth Temple.

“I cannot allow it.”

The glass sphere, attracted by the planet’s gravity, began to fall toward the desert at an alarming speed.
