Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Chapter 199

Episode 199 Corpse Queen (2)

Wearing a helmet and armor made of bones, and wearing a cloak that looks like the darkest part of the night sky has been sewn together.

The ‘it’ standing in the center of the ruins is the owner of the nine thousand dead who roam this place.

And Bikir saw right through its ominous identity.

< 'The Eighth City' Seere >

Risk Level: S+

Size: ?

Discovery Location: Deep inside the Gate of Destruction, ‘The Serpent’s Womb’

– also known as ‘The Eighth Corpse’.

One of the ten plagues leading to the natural enemy of mankind, incomprehensible and unkillable.

“Lives and beasts will perish.”

– 『Ten Commandments』 10:上 –

The eighth demon king, Seere.

The highest level demon that came over to obliterate mankind.

Bikir swallowed hard, suppressing the moan that boiled deep in his throat.

‘……I didn’t expect to meet you right away like this.’

Following the ‘Inferior Second Son’ set ‘A Thousand Faces’ Dantalian, ‘King of the Corpse’ Siere appeared rather suddenly.

Bikir recalled the memories before returning.

A black magician who was called the ‘king of corpses’. Seeere was a skilled being at reviving the dead.

A puppet circus using corpses When the legion of the dead marched once, all living things held their breath and feared.

In addition, Bikir already knew the identity of the being who contracted with Seere, the eighth city.

Seeere’s contractor was relatively well-known, unlike the other Tensangsi contractors.

His true identity is the Marquis Morgue Snake.

He was the highest member representing the Dark House of Morgue, the head of the Madou family.

Since Morgue Snake was originally a being who was secretly obsessed with black magic, he would have gotten along well with Seere.

‘As much as he was a rival of that magical castle Adolph, he was a strong man that could not be ignored even while alive.’

Morgue Snake is the best member of the dark party, and Morgue Adolf is the best member of the dark party.

The two had not been on good terms for a very long time for some reason, but the head of the household, Morgue Lespannet, was barely controlling it.

Before returning, Vikir did not know for what purpose Snake contracted with Seere, but he clearly remembered that the result was very disastrous.

‘It’s the time period when Morgue Adolf is still the 6th class master. If that’s the case, then Morgue Snake might not yet have a very high level of sorcery…’

But. Bikir’s thoughts were interrupted halfway through.

The corpse king saw through Bikir’s presence.

[……Who’s there?]

A humming voice came.

Surprisingly, the voice that sounded rather muddy because of the mixture of demonic energy was definitely a woman’s.

“……?”

Only then did Bikir take a closer look at his opponent.

different.

Something was different from the memory before the regression.

‘Morg Snake’, a man who should have been the ‘king of corpses’ in his original form, is tall and has an unpleasantly skinny body.

So when he walked, he looked like a clown on a pole.

Once an assassination target, his appearance and power must have been known to Vikir best.

……But the king of corpses in front of me is about the same height as Vikir.

Moreover, it had a well-trained body and well-proportioned proportions, which made it quite different from the Morgue Snake.

Furthermore.

‘……female?’

Bikir half-opened his mouth in bewilderment.

Judging by the body shape of the chest and buttocks, it is clear that the body of the king of corpses is female.

Something is strange.

Seeere’s contractor has changed.

Originally, according to history, Morgue Snake should have signed a contract with Seere.

Even after a long time from now.

But now, Seeere’s contractor had already appeared before his eyes, and he was a completely different person from Morgue Snake.

queen of corpses.

A human whose face was not recognizable because he was wearing a helmet made of skulls, but was presumed to be a woman.

Under the skull helmet that covered her entire face, she turned around while her long hair burning like a crimson flame and a black cloak fluttered at the same time.

“…”

Bikir frowned slightly behind the mask.

I don’t know what’s going on, but it went well anyway.

Morgue Snake is a high-ranking sorcerer whose victory cannot be guaranteed even by Vikir. If such an existence had made a contract with the devil, it would have been even stronger.

However, a completely different person, not him, became Seeere’s contractor.

The aura that exudes from her is uniquely half human and half demonic.

It is bound to be a little easier to deal with.

‘Heaven helped. If I’m good, I could kill the eighth city today.’

Vikir, who was contemplating whether to run away or not before the appearance of the eighth city, turned to the battle.

The crossroads of death or death.

The confrontation between demons and demon hunters has begun.

* * *

Ruins minutes before Bikir arrives.

[…]

Queen of Corpses.

She was quietly looking at the wreckage where nothing was left.

I don’t know what happened, but it seems that there was a pretty big collapse accident.

[Dantalian A lowly thief. There’s nothing else to steal, how dare you…]

At the same time, she stretched out her hand and emitted an aura like the darkness of the abyss.

Creeping- Creaking- Creaking-

Eventually, the fragments scattered throughout the wreckage move and gather into the air.

Resentment, sadness, anger, hatred, longing…

hardened blood drops, broken flesh, broken bones, missing hair…

Traces left by the dead without being able to be sorted out remain tangled here and there without distinguishing between the soul and the body.

They gathered in one place at the call of the queen.

Poududeudeuk- Wooddeuk!

A black magic circle appeared where there was nothing, and a woman’s body began to regenerate on top of it.

Geronto. The red-haired lich reappeared.

The Queen of Corpses looked at the resurrected Geronto and stroked her head.

[…As expected, Seere’s power seems to have some effect. The ability to ‘find the person you want to find’?]

The queen of corpses caressed Geronto’s hair as if handling something very precious.

[‘Rosé’ managed to find this child, but… the person he really wanted to find couldn’t be found. Wasn’t it okay to believe everything the devil said?]

The devil’s contractor. But I still haven’t fully mastered that power.

So, the queen of corpses was working hard at lung training without missing a day.

It’s like building a wall from the world.

[As expected… In order to handle this power 100%, the only way is to go through the gates of death completely. Right now, it’s only half.]

I haven’t fully mastered the power yet.

So even when he revived Geronto, he wasted mana unnecessarily, causing even miscellaneous corpses around him to become disease of the dead.

In order to use as much strength as needed where it is absolutely necessary, more training is still needed.

and by then

[…!]

The Queen of Corpses sensed the arrival of an uninvited guest.

A monster wearing a black robe and a plague doctor mask.

A person emitting an ominous aura was watching this direction.

“The 8th Siere. ‘The King of Corpses.’ You were my imitator.”

Suddenly, an eerie voice-modulated sound came from his mouth.

night hound. The worst villain who has recently been terrorizing the emperor and the entire empire.

However, the queen of corpses tilted her head at the sight of the night hound.

[Who are you?]

“Don’t you know me?”

[I do not know. As for you.]

“You don’t seem to be interested in what’s going on in the world. Don’t you even read the newspaper?”

The Queen of Corpses sneered lightly at the Night Hound’s question.

[……newspaper? why do you see that I have no regrets in this world anymore.]

That’s right. Newspapers are a tool for reporting public events.

He who is not interested in worldly affairs has no need of newspapers.

The Night Hound and the Queen of Corpses. Two men and women facing each other while wearing masks.

Although they did not reveal their identities to each other, the hostility they harbored was obvious.

“The devil kills.”

[Try it if you can.]

The night hound took out the black bow Anubis and held it up.

The Queen of Corpses also called Geronto and other dead soldiers.

Koodduk –

Deep in the basement of the nursery school. Bone and flesh specters that had not yet been excavated stood up.

– Also known as ‘corpse eater’. Food Demon.

A low-level monster that can be commonly found in graveyards, battlefields, abandoned sewers, and other places where corpses are found.

The corpse is not a reanimated form, but a completely different species of undead that seeks to eat the corpse.

Unusually, it is not known at all which creature is the undead that is born from the death of a ghoul, and once a ghoul dies, it is said that it cannot be resurrected as an undead again.

So, it is not known where they come from or where they are going.

Skeleton Zombie Ghost Ghoul. The most basic forms of a black magician’s dead soldier.

As a place is a place, most of the undead that were resurrected were those who were children of the orphanage before they were alive, or those who were tricked into digging up and eating the corpses.

Tsk-

The Corpse Queen clicked her tongue once she saw the gathered undead.

It seems that they are not very willing to pamper them.

And the hounds of the night paid attention to one of the skeletons in front of them.

Jingle-

A golden necklace shining brightly from the neck of a small skeleton.

The moment I saw the phrase

‘Nymphet’ .

“…”

The hounds of the night also had no choice but to expose their teeth.

“Don’t think of dying gracefully.”

savagely. more ferociously.
