Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 439
Chapter 78. When you enter my territory (1),
the harpy’s mouth opens.
The red aura within it flashes.
– Ugh!
The sword that no longer belonged to Calian found a new target, neither Harpy nor Calian. Calian, who knew where the tip of the blade was pointing, made a clicking noise.
“…… shit.”
That’s when the swear words broke out.
Everyone moved as if those words were a signal.
– Slut!
A red dagger shot out from the harpy’s mouth.
– Peeee!
– Whistling!
Planz placed the bow string towards the harpy’s mouth.
Eila threw away her sword to block the attack.
Kirie raised her sword, blocking Plantz’s path.
– Ugh! Ugh!
Arsene’s ice wall was erected in front of them all.
Euria spread a curtain of water over the ice wall.
Everyone moved at the same time. Everything happened in an instant.
– Excited!
And Kalyan.
He was already rushing towards the red blade that was his.
The body, which has used its aura to its limit, runs as if it can catch up with even the rays of light. It feels like my heart is beating slowly, trapped at that speed.
The moment when Calian moved as if he was moving beyond time, the moment when his vision expanded and everything around him felt like it was slowing down significantly due to his fast movement. The thoughts that came to Calian’s mind continued like lightning flashing. I made a hasty decision as I watched the situations unfold.
‘Magic or swords are useless.’
Magic doesn’t work on him.
Euria’s curtain and Arsene’s barrier are both useless. It means that if he puts his mind to it, he can easily create a gap for the sword to pass through. Even if he doesn’t go to such trouble, that blade can pierce the curtain and shatter Arsene’s ice wall. That much power was put into it.
Even a sword cannot stop it.
Kirie cannot stop Aurors. The same goes for Aila. You can never block it with a blade without an aura. I had put that much pressure on it.
Damn me.
Therefore, Eila, Kirie, Arsene, Euria, and the other members of Balkan will all fail. Planz’s arrows didn’t even count. If Pea’s extraordinary talent had worked, that harpy would have been dead a long time ago.
‘I should have left an Auror behind.’
I should have left the Auror behind.
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn’t have pushed all the blue aura into my heart. Since the power of the blessing had become stronger anyway, I decided to leave it behind for now. I decided to leave it alone regardless of whether there was a conflict or whether it melted my insides.
‘… Damn it.’
He lunged at Silike himself and suffered harm.
Evan was deliberately deceived and suffered harm.
It seemed useful to Devlan, it came out for no reason to Zeon, it got hate for no reason from Danu, and it was perfumed by Rashid. So I got hurt like that. I somehow stood out and was targeted so much.
This time, I swallowed the curse that was about to escape me as I ran towards the pale guy who was being targeted for the unfair reason that I was just standing in front of him.
Anyway, all sorts of damn peas.
My older brother takes a lot of effort.
– Taaat!
I kicked my foot again.
ran.
– ……Sleep!
A small hole appears between the shields. A gap appears in the middle of the translucent film, as if a stream of hot water were applied to thick ice. It’s the work of a harpy.
One like that, then another, and another.
The layered shields were pierced.
– Kwazik Kwazik!
Cracks appear in the water curtain and ice barrier.
The space between them widened, creating a gap large enough for a sword to easily pass in and out. That too is the work of a harpy.
– Kagak!
In Calian’s time, which had slowed down as expected, the three arrows fired by Plantz began to swim. One of the arrows bounced off Arsene’s quickly frozen ice barrier.
Anyway, the two really don’t get along very well. We became very close, so I guess we were just friends.
You don’t have to be close, so let’s keep our hands and feet in sync.
like me.
-Ssam!
– Slut!
Still, the remaining two arrows of the three succeeded in going through the gap created by the harpy. One of them rushed towards the guy’s open mouth, and another shot towards the forehead.
– Kwasik!
-……Kagagak!
Before long, I heard the sound of something breaking and the sound of something getting blocked somewhere. It was the sound of one arrow being hit by a flying red sword and being broken weakly, and another being bounced off by the claws of a harpy who quickly jumped after throwing out the sword.
After the three timely arrows all disappeared to no avail, the sword that could never be blocked by arrows continued to fly. Even the speed has not decreased one bit.
– Kaaaang!
Aela’s sword flew in to block the red auror. It looks like he picked up the dagger he always had tied to his leg and threw it away. However, the sword sent in such a hasty manner could not overcome the power of the red aura and was thrown back to the floor. The broken sword fell apart.
Calian, who had followed the path of the red sword, leaving all the sounds and sights behind, stretched out his arms. He stretched it out as if he had forgotten that it was his broken right arm.
But it doesn’t reach.
Even so, you can’t stop your steps.
I urgently kick my foot once more.
‘I changed the attack sent by the warrior into my magic power.’
‘The situation was a bit urgent, so I ended up doing it.’
‘The mana involved in the attack has been read.’
Memories that come to mind in an instant swirl through my mind.
– Sreung…!
Right then.
Kirie, who was standing one step in front of Plantz, raised her head. I grabbed the sword that had already been drawn.
Kyrie closed her eyes and immediately opened them again.
Those eyes looked straight at the path of the red sword.
‘It’s not going as well as I wanted.’
And miraculously.
So miraculously.
‘You can do it. ‘If only I had done it.’
– Ugh…
Kyrie’s gray sword let out a long cry.
As if he had heard the words of the pea that was lingering in Calian’s head, as if he were burning the remnants of the star that had fallen to the ground once more.
Blue light filled Calian’s vision.
– …… Ugh!
The gray sword shines.
A blue aura forms.
Kirie, who knew she had no time to be thrilled, raised her sword without delay. I swung towards the flying red thing.
With him, finally.
– Kwaaak!
The blade of the sword finally reached the tip of Calian’s hand.
Calian held on to the red blade with all his might.
I could feel the well-forged blade, as if it could cut through anything, trying to tear the flesh and cut out everything inside. I blocked it with my aura, held on, and grabbed the blade with all my strength.
-…… Exciting!
He said that if you want to do it once, you can do it.
That was the case with Pea, who was so damn smart that he never said anything wrong.
okay. That’s what I said.
I did say it. I just spoke.
… Easier said than done!
“Damn it! Brother, you’re like a baby pea… you know!”
At that time, Kyrie’s gray sword was engulfed in a blue aura.
At the same time, the sword was held in Calian’s hand.
The moment when Kalian’s evil words reached everyone’s ears.
– Ugh…!
The red aura glowed again.
The red aura that was trying to cut off all the long white fingers that were trapped in Calian’s hand glowed.
– Excited!
Calian read the mana entangled in the aura. I sent my will. The red auror moves according to Calian’s will.
The flow of Aurors changes.
– Pass…!
It finally disperses.
He was just standing there, but the red sword that was pointed at the pale guy who was the target disappeared. The sharp blade that pierced Calian’s hand and was about to strike at the target disappeared without a trace.
“…… ah.”
It works.
Calian grinned.
okay. I laughed.
Looking at Kyrie’s blue aura, which was now heading towards his neck instead of the sword. In front of him is the world’s strongest ice barrier, which is quickly being erected between him and Kirie.
Anyway, that pea doesn’t say anything nonsense.
“Prince!”
I saw astonishment appear on Kirie’s face.
I created the aurors again, but I couldn’t collect them as I wanted.
– Suddenly!
A cool sound was heard.
It was the sound of Kyrie’s sword splitting Arsene’s ice between me and Calian.
– Quaaaang!
Calian twisted his body. He turned his body, hitting the ice barrier that had begun to be cut by Kirie’s sword. Because I had absolutely no intention of causing an incident where Kyrie’s auror decapitated me.
– Kagagagak……!
Because of that. As he hit the barrier and bounced off, he turned his body and tried to escape the range of Kyrie’s sword attack, so he stepped on the barrier and kicked with all his might. Because I was focusing all my attention on that movement.
Calian overlooked one other important thing.
– Kyaaaaaah!
He didn’t pay attention to the fact that the Harpy, who could move at the same speed as him, was still alive, and that the one who had blocked the arrow had just thrown his body towards Calian’s back and was running at a speed that no one could stop. I didn’t think to check the situation behind me because I was trying to get away from Kyrie’s sword that just grazed the tip of my nose.
Calian did not see the harpy’s blade-like claws striking behind Calian.
“I’m out of my mind. Again.”
Instead, Plantz saw.
– Woe!
And Kalian saw Planz again.
* * *
I am crushed.
I dodged Kirie’s sword that came right in front of me. Only then did I hear the cries of a harpy attacking from behind.
I am devastated. Planz was seen jumping down from above Estina. I am devastated. The pale guy was seen stepping out of the ice barrier that had been broken by Kyrie’s sword. I am devastated. I saw Pea standing with his shoulders down and his back blocked. I am devastated. The harpy’s claws behind the pea’s back.
– Aaaah!
I am devastated.
Calian stretched out his hand. He roughly grabbed Plantz’s arm, which was holding his shoulder. I grabbed it. I pulled it. I turned my brother, who had blocked my back without any solution, back behind me.
I really am.
I’m going crazy because of my older brother who doesn’t listen to his younger brother.
“You’re out of your mind, brother.”
We changed places again.
That’s how I turned my brother, who was clearly out of his mind, around.
– Ugh!
I unfolded the shield. A red aura was put into it. I knew that neither the shield nor the aurors would be of any use against him, but I didn’t care.
– Wheeeee!
With the peas in front of him and the charging harpy behind him, he gathered his magic power. I steadily gathered the remaining magical power in my heart. I took it in my hand. Without even deciding what magic to use and without calculating it properly, I gathered everything together to the point where it seemed ignorant. My hand, which was full of magic power, dragged it in until it felt like it was going to explode.
– Get out of the way, Aila.
As soon as she heard the words on the ice barrier that was melting and disappearing to be re-established by expanding the range, Aela jumped to the other side to avoid everyone who was facing Calian.
okay.
Not in the direction where the harpy is, but in the opposite direction.
– …… Taaak!
He fired magical power towards the amazing carriage of the Kairis royal family. He poured out everything he had gathered, as if pouring it out.
– Kwagak!
At the same time, I feel Calian’s shield being bound by the Harpy’s power and opening a gap. I didn’t care.
– Slut!
A huge force of wind rushes towards the carriage. Calian only focused on that while holding on to Planz.
Their eyes widen when they remember who is in the carriage. Estina stomped away from the carriage. Planz’s eyes sharpened, Kyrie took a breath, and Eila’s face became the face of a crazy person like no other in the world. Euria took a bite and Arsene got excited.
and.
– Quaaaaaaaa!
A cool chunk of magical power from the wind struck the luxurious royal carriage squarely. The strong wind blew through everyone’s hair, wrapping the hem of their clothes around their fingertips.
– Kwaaak!
Calian moved constantly.
“Bow down to Kirie.”
Calian, who had delivered a warning, stretched out his arms again. I held onto the hem of the flantz dress that was caught in my hand and held onto my shoulder. I grabbed what I had and pressed down.
– Kwagagak… Kwajik!
Eventually, I heard the sound of the shield blocking my back breaking and scattering. Calian didn’t care. There was no time for that. Instead, I rebuilt the shield, which was useless. Red energy gathered and blocked Kalian’s back. The harpy turned his head to cut it off again.
And at that very moment.
-…… Rumbling….
The ground rumbled.
A deep wave comes from where the amazing royal carriage is. A black energy flows from the side of the luxurious carriage.
– Kugugugugu…!
All of the wind magic that Calian sent was absorbed into the carriage.
Instead, a cloud of black light flowed out. No matter how skillfully one reads the flow of mana, the ancient dragon’s magic that could never be taken for one’s own spread out.
– Coogung… Coogungung!
The anti-magic defense system created by the amazing Sispanian and modified by Alan Manasil worked.
– Ugh!
Calian pressed Plantz’s shoulder further. I sat down as if covering it. I unfolded the shield. The shield contained an aura. I captured everything as it was there.
As if he had been waiting for that moment
– … Shuuuk!
The black energy flowing from the carriage exploded as if it would swallow everything. A counterattack was sent in the direction from which the attack was made. It continued to fly, passing far above Planz and directly above Calian, who was covering Planz.
– Slut!
The harpy’s head, which was moving towards Calian’s shield, turned. He looked at the black energy heading towards him.
The harpy, feeling the magic entangled within it, opened his mouth wide.
Towards the mouth of that harpy, towards the mouth that opened without realizing it
– Quaaaaaaang!
– Kwaang kwaaang! Quagwagwagwang!
A bombardment filled with extremely great magical power followed.
* * *
‘Put a mithril net over it. And I shoot my bow until I die.’
What reminded me of the wizards’ method of hunting harpies, what made me realize what purpose the mithril net that Plantz had taken out to catch Vern was used, and what made me guess where Plantz might have gotten it.
-Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
It was around the time when the last gasps of the harpy, whose form was so damaged that it was difficult to determine, were heard.
Calian raised his head. I straightened my back.
And after looking down for a moment at the pitiful appearance that could not possibly have survived even if it were Serenti’s body and not a harpy, I checked the surroundings.
– That damn magic stone is that expensive, Aila?
– Does it matter now?
– It’s important. Who was coveting it?
– That’s Okay. If only I lived.
I almost died, but I didn’t die and I caught it well.
It was very difficult because I didn’t have a mithril net, but I caught it anyway.
I could see the wizards’ shields being lifted. Estina, who was surprised for a moment but calmed down, and Raven, who was standing leisurely because such incidents had become a part of daily life, Arsene, who had put up the barrier, Euria, who had removed the curtain, and the Vulcan members who were inside the shield were all fine in the carriage without a single shake. Even the servants who open the door and come out.
And Randel, who is sitting as if he has become one with the carriage, Kirie, who is amazing and has manifested Aura for the second time, and Eila, who is shaking the dust off her body.
It seemed like everyone was safe.
“Huh…”
It’s really over.
Calian heaved a sigh of relief and turned his head.
Only then did I relax the arm that I had been holding down, unable to let go. And then I stood up the peas that had been rolled up neatly.
“Excuse me. I was in a hurry.”
So why do you jump in without any hesitation? You almost got in big trouble. Did you just decide to go first because you didn’t want to see your brother die? Did you know that if you block a harpy with your bare body without even drawing that good sword, that guy will be so moved that he will retreat?
Brother, do you know that you are the most vulnerable next to the horses purring over there? Are you so smart that you always forget such simple facts?
To say that. Or to bark.
“So… why…”
I said.
Calian’s mouth slowly closed after swallowing long words.
I felt like all the blood had disappeared from my already pale face. I could see his pea-colored eyes, full of frustration, slowly going down and up. I realized that I was keeping my mouth shut when I was supposed to say, “It’s enough, let it go.” I noticed that my body, which should have been straight away and upright, was still leaning against my younger brother’s hand.
“…… why.”
Under your feet.
The floor on which Calian was standing, covering and protecting the surface that forced Planz, who was standing fine, to bend down.
The long footprints of the harpy that had trampled there, and the dark red blood stains of the harpy following the footprints. And only then did I look down at the black dead ground soaked with blood.
– Stumble!
Harpy blood is deadly poison.
It is said that no one has survived after being exposed to it.
that.
why.
“older brother.”
Had I completely forgotten?
Harpy blood dripping from a severed wing. Why did I only then realize that the poisonous blood that had not been able to seep through the water barrier, ice barrier, and shield was dotted on my pure white clothes and was splattered on the hand I held out to hold Calian?
Why did I realize it only then?
Because I’m not careful.
Because I’m really not very attentive.
“Brother…Planz.”
At this point, who is going to protect whom?
How on earth are you going to survive like this?
– …I’m crying!
Instead of an answer, a terrible smell of blood came out.
