Episode 138. Protection
[Acquire the protection ‘Seed of Divine Slaughter’.]
[Seed of Divine Slaughter]
―Prosperity
―Suppresses the energy of things called gods for a while.
brief explanation.
But as simple as it was, it was difficult to understand.
‘Suppressing God’s energy?’
Even though Maximin was in front of his eyes, he was distracted by the divine protection that was manifested.
Satisfying the conditions was so out of the blue that I never thought that Maximin would come right in front of me in the first place… … .
“I heard from Evan that you are an ancient… … .”
“Can we have a conversation in a place where there are no Maximians?”
When I hurriedly stopped Maximin from speaking, he looked around and nodded.
There was no mess around with students fleeing and swarming.
“That would be nice.”
He lifted the coffin again and chinned me.
“Guide me.”
Even in the middle of my mind, I calmly took the lead.
Speaking of uninhabited places, there are usually places where Burial taught me magic.
While taking Maximin to the Whirlwind Forest, he recalled a phenomenon that had happened a while ago.
‘As Isabelle’s coffin was approaching, the divine protection was opened. It seems certain that Isabelle is related to the Old Gods.’
It is an ancient god that Maximin sings every day.
I wondered if Danny Isabelle was really asleep because of the ancient god because he sang endlessly, but this solved the question to some extent.
‘But the seed of God’s death?’
God’s protection is actually a seed that kills God.
What irony is this… … .
After thinking for a while, I suddenly looked behind me, and Maximin silently followed, not paying attention to the gazes of the students around me.
Looking at him like that, I wondered if I could take advantage of this situation itself along with a vague thought.
If you have an idea, you should act immediately.
“Is it because of him?”
At my sudden question, Maximin looked me in the eyes.
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“The reason you came to me. Isn’t it because of him?”
Maximin, who confirmed where my gaze had landed, asked with curiosity.
“Where did you hear that?”
“Are you listening? It just felt right.”
I took off my pretense casually.
Then, as I raised my hand and pointed at the coffin, I could feel Maximin’s eyes shaking.
“I felt the traces of God.”
Whoo-!
In an instant, Maximin’s eyes, who came to my face, were empty.
However, I could clearly feel the faint flame inside it.
“Are you mocking me?”
“What are you talking about? I just said what I felt.”
“Are you telling me to believe that now?”
“What will you do if you don’t believe me? Do I have any reason to lie?”
“If you provoked me, you wouldn’t look good.”
great living.
A shudder ran through his entire body.
But even if he threatened to kill me, I was sure he couldn’t kill me.
It was because I already knew that Maximin’s heart for Isabelle was great.
By the way, he is definitely the strongest in the world.
It was simply revealing that he would live for a short time, but it made his heart ache.
‘If I put my mind to it, I’ll be able to stop my heart just by living, right?’
Rather than being scared, should I say that Maksimin, who has reached that level, is in awe?
Noticing my reaction, Maximin looked down at me with the look of an eccentric.
For him, who doesn’t show much change in emotions, even that much would be a great expression of emotion.
“Certainly not an ordinary guy.”
“I hear stories like that often. First of all, let’s go quickly. I’m starting to get curious too.”
As I spoke as I looked at the coffin, he still looked at me with meaningful eyes.
Looking at it like that, I can’t figure out anything.
‘By the way, I’m really curious.’
A divine protection that I accidentally obtained a little while ago.
Can I use this protection to wake up Isabelle?
If you wake up… … .
‘It’s going to get a little complicated. On the good side, of course.’
The more tiles you can use, the better.
I hope that this blessing can wake Isabelle up.
There was a mess as we walked to the forest of whirlpools, but we steadfastly ignored it and proceeded.
Fortunately, the forest was within the premises of the Faculty of Magic, so we were able to arrive quickly.
“Now tell me. Is it true that you met and talked with an ancient god? And is it true that the traces of God were felt in this coffin?”
“Both are true.”
As I nodded, Maximin, who had put the coffin down, pulled up the hood and said,
“What conversation did you have with God?”
“It wasn’t much of a story.”
It really wasn’t much of a story.
After saying a few nonsensical words, he suddenly lowered his protection and disappeared saying that he would be waiting.
“I said I would be waiting.”
“Are you going to wait?”
Even I, who heard it myself, did not understand it, but would a maxim citizen understand it?
That was the moment.
Kieh-!
A noise resounded like a ghostly cry, and an intangible energy came out and passed between Maximin.
Quadruped!
A deep furrow was dug in the ground and separated Maximin from me.
“Back off.”
Surahan approached me and grabbed my shoulder and said to me.
I noticed right away Well, it was because the students who saw Maximin and I were not alone.
So, are Bahat and Berial dealing with fakes?
no Maybe what’s here is fake.
While I was lost in my thoughts, Surahan said.
“I never thought you would come out like this while we were talking.”
“All I have business with is Adrias Cromwell.”
“There is a procedure, though.”
“Did you say the head of the Knights Department? You are full of triumphant spirit.”
Maximin quietly added his words.
“You just want to compete with me. yes?”
Surahan frowned for a moment at the provocative words.
Aura Biggie, which had already been activated, overflowed as if it would jump out at any moment.
“I must have offended you with what I said earlier. If you’re curious or don’t understand… … .”
Maximin stretched out his hand from his back covered by his thick cloak and took out something.
It was a wide but short sword.
There were unknown symbols and things like letters drawn on the wide sword surface, but I knew the name and effect of the sword.
‘Betrayal Executioner.’
It was a named-class sword.
Only Maximin knows for sure, but I guess I knew it as a relic from an ancient era.
“Come on. I want to finish quickly and have a talk with Adrias Cromwell.”
Suddenly a fight seems to break out.
But I wasn’t too worried.
Because I know that if Maximin really cares about Isabelle, he won’t have an accident.
‘Rather, it went well.’
The fight between the Auror Masters is a spectacle that is hard to see.
In addition, Maximin Cronell, who is said to be the strongest swordsman.
can’t miss this opportunity
“Are you just going to watch?”
Just looking at his appearance, Surahan with many scars looked a little older, so maybe that’s why he sounded much more provocative.
In the end, even Surahan could not stand it and began to cry out.
Aaaah-!
The Infinite Return to Gok Banyaga was activated, and the surrounding area was filled with return to song.
I drew my sword and stepped back to protect myself.
“Huh!”
Numerous ghost cries became invisible blades and attacked Maximin.
However, Maximin still did not move with the coffin beside him with his expression unchanged.
“Either the aura or the sword is just a tool in the end.”
His arms slowly began to lift.
Maximin’s aura color was pale yellow.
“The important thing is myself. You can’t blame tools for your weakness.”
Maximin, who spoke as if giving an admonition, lightly swung his sword at Surahan, who was running after avoiding it by a single piece of paper, as if he could see the pouring ears of ears.
Aaaaaang-!
With just one swing, the aura exploded and erased everything in front of Maximin.
‘Is that a person?’
It is shocking that such a technique is not an aura match, but a simple ‘plain hit’.
What the hell do I do to make the aura explode and cause such destructive power?
In the whirlpool forest, a straight road appeared in front of Maximin.
Fortunately, Surahan was barely able to keep herself in a place far away, as if she had avoided her body.
“Not yet!”
The moment Surahan, bleeding from his forehead, turns on the light in his eyes and tries to attack again.
Maximin stood in front of Surahan as if teleporting.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
An urgent cry came out, but Maximin, who managed to avoid it by bending his head leisurely, struck Surahan’s sword with his sword face.
Quaaaaang-!
There was a sound like an explosion, and Surahhan was thrown far away.
But as if this wasn’t the end, Maximin caught up with the flying Surahan at great speed and grabbed him by the collar.
“The Aura Masters neglect their training the moment they learn the Aura Secret. Just start researching how to deal with Aura Biggie.”
“Suck!”
kang!
They danced while Surahan’s sword was grabbed by the collar, but was quickly blocked by Maximin’s sword.
“Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong. In terms of efficiency, that might be better. But in the end, everyone forgot that hard work never betrays. Once you taste the easy way, you can’t go back.”
Quaang!
Maximin defeated Surahan just like that.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw Surahhan stuck in the ground with a roar.
To think that Surahan, who killed Todlon, who had taken the black magic potion, in just a few strokes, was so helpless.
‘It’s a bit uneasy.’
I thought I would definitely not have an accident, but I started to get anxious.
Wouldn’t that kill Surahan?
If that happens, your back hurts.
“Did you say the head of the Knights Department? Your aura draw is threatening enough. The invisible blade must be quite menacing to the minions. But I have my doubts. It doesn’t look like you’ve ever fought an Auror Master before. Have you only been dealing with the weak?”
Quaang!
Maximin kicked Surahan who was lying on his stomach.
An aura exploded and the atmosphere shook.
It seemed that Maximin was more endearing than I expected.
“Maximin.”
I had to stop once.
When I spoke to him, he slowly turned his head.
Then he looked at me as if he was asking why.
“Are you planning to kill the head of the Knights Department?”
“If you try and fail, you have to pay the price. It is the reason for everything in this world.”
“Don’t you think the price is too harsh?”
“That alone is not enough against me.”
Well, I agree with that statement.
But now is the time to save Surahan.
“If you kill the head of the Knights Department right now, you won’t be able to get my help.”
“Your help? Wasn’t that the end of what we were talking about earlier?”
“That’s the end, but I know that I haven’t explained how I felt the traces of God in the coffin. If the head of the knight department dies here, the Empire will not stand still, and if that happens, it will be difficult for me to help.”
“Why are you so sure you can help?”
“I am not sure. But if you can help, there will be a reward for me too. As you just said, the challenge will come at a price, but there will be a reward if you succeed.”
I’m not helping you because I like you.
I’m trying to help you for the reward I’ll get from you.
As if that meaning had been conveyed well, Maximin stood still and thought.
Then, as if he had finished his thoughts, he opened his mouth.
“If you fail in a challenge, you pay the price.”
Are you threatening?
But I felt it was worth doing.
The conditions for releasing the divine protection and the explanation of suppressing the energy of the gods were plausible.
“All right. So, please save the head of the Knights Department for now.”
“Fun.”
Finally, Maximin fell away from Surahan.
Surahan didn’t move as if she had passed out, but it was fortunate that she could feel that she was breathing.
After looking at Surahan for a while, I headed to the coffin where Isabel was sleeping with Maximin.
‘If Isabel is here, the Maximin next to me must be real.’
Maximin’s aura comparison was simple.
Making an alter ego with an Auror.
It was an aura that matched his theory.
‘Since it’s not weaker or weaker as an alter ego, maybe it’s possible that it’s a biggie for the max citizen only.’
The strongest swordsman increases. This alone is a huge aura.
An aura bigi that goes well with Maximin, who eats everything with only his own skills.
As I got closer to the coffin, I felt a peculiar aura, perhaps because of the newly acquired divine protection.
Is this the spirit of God that the system said?
“May I open it?”
“… … Are you really confident? I searched for 40 years and couldn’t find a clue.”
“I risked my life too. Nothing changes if you don’t have confidence, so you have to do something.”
“Okay. I’ll open it.”
Maximin carefully opened the lid.
Then, a sleeping red-haired beauty caught my eye.
‘Isabel Lucifer.’
A race related to ‘lust’, one of the sins, and a different race that uses powerful blood magic.
Among them, it was the appearance of vampires corresponding to the direct line.
