The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 95
Chapter 95 Ghost Shadow (5)
A place far away from the place where the incident occurred.
Hearing Thompson’s voice coming through the magic communicator, Edwin Hector said with a firm expression.
“Calm down, Thompson. Enemies are outnumbered, so they only use darkness. Be wary of your surroundings and calmly explain the situation to me.”
[An enemy has appeared in the area covered by the 1st Company of the 2nd Battalion. However, no matter how much I check, I can’t see the enemy. Hector’s soldiers are dying one after another, but only corpses remain. No trace of the enemy can be found. Commander. How the hell am I supposed to respond to this? There is nothing we can do against the shapeless ghost!]
His voice trembled.
Even without checking his face, he remembered Thompson’s pale, tired face.
‘Thompson is an aura swordsman. You can’t even find a trace of a being with far more developed senses than the average person. No matter how dark the space is, is that possible?’
no.
impossible.
Aura Swordsman pierces the darkness.
The mana-filled eyes grasp the location of the enemy, so he made the choice to climb the mountain even when the sun was setting.
Still, Roman Dmitri’s figure was nowhere to be found.
Looking at the communications from not only the 1st company but also from other places, it was clear that the remnants of Cairo were roaming the mountains.
‘What is the possibility of magic?’
does not exist.
There are invisible and hide magics that make the body invisible, but apart from the fact that Roman Dmitri is not a wizard, magic cannot be used often in the first place.
One-time technology.
After using it once, it takes enough time, but Roman Dmitri acted as if he were an insubstantial ghost, as Thompson explained.
Hector’s soldiers are dying.
It means that the truth was revealed, and even though the magic effect disappeared, it disappeared into the darkness again.
I didn’t understand.
Roman Dmitry.
The more I got to know it, the more I felt like I was falling into the mud.
Edwin Hector has experienced many situations, but this war has put him to the test every time.
I don’t know the answer.
But Edwin Hector spoke in a steady voice.
“As time goes on, opponents have no choice but to face their physical limits. According to our calculations, the number of soldiers who joined Roman Dmitri is less than two hundred. Thompson. Don’t be seduced by the darkness. It’s a fight where we have an overwhelming advantage, and if we respond calmly, we can definitely discover the enemy’s true nature. And now I’m going there with my troops. If you surround yourself around the starting point of the attack and illuminate the field of view with magic flares, the enemies will have no way to escape.”
under objective calculations.
Edwin Hector was confident that the situation was favorable.
Rather than being swayed by the fear unfolding in front of his eyes, he faced reality even in a situation that was flowing violently.
signaled
That time when you are going to move with your troops.
[…] … Commander Ji! It seems that the ghosts of Cairo are targeting me!]
Beyond communications.
I heard Thompson’s voice tinged with despair.
* * *
Chuck.
Thompson raised his sword and looked around.
The soldiers around them were quickly disappearing.
As the darkness slowly approached him, Thompson was convinced that he had become the target of the ghosts.
“1st company soldiers, listen up! Check each other’s position and form a defensive formation! The enemy is now looking for our lives. Instead of being sucked into the darkness, stand back to back and block the enemy’s attack!”
screamed loudly.
My arms trembled.
aura test.
He rose to the level of a superman that ordinary people could not dare to touch, but he was only human after all.
‘It’s not just the 1st company here. Since the allies are close together to form a boundary line, the surrounding area will be completely surrounded within 3 minutes at the earliest. So there is no need to be afraid. As the commander said, the situation is in our favor.’
gulp.
I swallowed dry saliva.
The magic communicator was turned on.
The magic communicator was firmly fixed on the waist so that it could be delivered immediately if a situation occurred.
It was then.
Crisp.
The flames are gone.
It was about five meters from Thompson’s location, but this time I saw a soldier being dragged into the darkness.
sure
The presence of darkness appeared right in front of his nose, and Thompson instinctively raised mana.
‘It’s an opportunity!’
tadak.
Aura Explosion.
flooded the space.
He dug into the space quickly so that the opponent could not escape, and swung his sword at the darkness that had taken the soldier.
Awesome!
broke the wind
There was no sense of being caught by the sword.
I thought I had caught up with the opponent’s movements, but I couldn’t see the enemy’s figure, only the corpse of a fallen soldier on the floor.
The soldier died with his eyes wide open.
Thompson’s expression turned pale as he couldn’t accept his death.
‘this.’
one rush.
broke out of ranks
Thinking that he had distanced himself from the soldiers who were following him, Thompson hurriedly retrieved his sword and tried to retreat.
That moment.
Thompson’s body stiffened.
A pitch-black space.
A black figure was slowly walking out of there.
black personage.
It was Roman Dmitry.
His face, exposed in the moonlight, was covered in blood from his enemies.
“When you hide in the dark and hunt enemies, this kind of situation sometimes happens.”
A low-pitched voice.
Thompson couldn’t scream.
The long sword did not seem ready to attack, but the blood dripping down the sword proved that it could attack at any time.
The hair all over the body stood up.
Thompson prepared for Roman Dmitri’s surprise attack by maximizing his aura.
Bassrock.
stepping on fallen leaves
A sound was heard.
I hadn’t heard it in the meantime, but when it appeared in front of me, I could see that the being in the darkness was a human being.
Roman smirked.
“An invisible enemy. The illusion that if you just find the enemy, you will be able to win. You, obviously frightened just now, jumped into the darkness as soon as you saw me. Why did you make that mistake? Did he really think that if he could find me, he could easily subdue me?”
Glance.
Thompson looked around.
The soldiers were farther than expected.
In the end, you had to believe in yourself in order to survive.
‘Let’s see the match.’
I covered my ears.
I was not seduced by meaningless words.
Watching Roman slowly approaching, he kicked the ground as soon as the opponent came within range.
tadak.
“die!”
It was fast.
Aura explodes once again.
It was only a 1-star aura, but the ability to transcend the human body seemed to cut off Roman’s body at once.
and.
It was an illusion.
Thompson thought the attack had worked in his head, but when he came to his senses, a burning pain overtook him.
Awesome!
“Cheak!”
Blood spattered.
Thompson’s body collapsed in excruciating pain as his chest was cut long.
single blow.
Thompson knew he could never beat Roman Dmitri on his own.
The skin on his chest was torn to the point that it was tattered, but he immediately jumped up and ran without looking back.
The only way to survive was to run away.
With a squeal, he informed the soldiers of his situation.
However, the voice could not be transmitted, as if using silence magic.
and.
Beetle.
I was out of balance with a thunderbolt of pain.
Roman’s sword severed Thompson’s Achilles tendon, and when he reached out to stop it, even his wrist was blown off.
Took.
wrists falling to the floor.
Thompson’s face turned into a corpse’s.
Shivering, he dragged the floor with his one remaining hand and ran away, but Roman approached him before he knew it.
Roman reached out his hand.
Thompson closes his eyes, prepared for death.
didn’t kill
After checking his waist, he pulled out the firmly fixed magic communicator and brought it to his mouth.
“Can you hear my voice?”
beyond the communicator.
Roman found Hector’s commander.
No answer was heard.
Clearly, despite having just talked with Thompson, only a chilling silence lingered over the communicator.
Roman said.
“I know what you guys are thinking. A plan to occupy the warp gate after simultaneously attacking the southern front and distracting attention. It’s probably not a plan prepared for a day or two. Even though the kingdom of Cairo was caught off guard, your plan was perfect. But why did they go so far to occupy the southern front? Why did the kingdom of Hector, where the people of the country were starving to death due to an unprecedented famine, risked their lives to occupy the southern front, which had nothing to gain.”
Lights flickered all around.
Even though the soldiers checked their surroundings, they did not notice at all what Roman was doing in the immediate vicinity.
“There is only one correct answer. Trying to solve the country’s problems through war. It is clear that you are trying to make a huge deal with the Cairo royal family by using the Southern Front as a hostage. If it wasn’t for that reason, I wouldn’t have to do this. The reason why Hector Kingdom’s soldiers remaining in the rear camp are preparing for Mercury is probably intended to present a definite threat to the Cairo royal family.”
seal.
laughed
The other party’s plans went perfectly, but they were crumbling one by one because of their own existence.
“The problem is that I found out about the plan. You don’t have time. In the first place, the troops that were not even properly secured could not last more than three months, no matter how long it was. I’m not going to let you guys do what you’re trying to do. I will hold out to the end and thwart your plans.”
this contact.
Thoroughly intended.
Hector’s realm is really short of time.
They went through a lot of trial and error to reduce the margin of error and chose to occupy the warp gate to end the war in a short time.
Perfect plans exposed their weaknesses.
If Roman hadn’t mentioned his weakness, they might have thought that there was still time, but by contacting them directly, they drove Hector’s kingdom to the brink.
‘Anyway, there is no choice in Hector Kingdom. That’s why the truth they tried to avoid will make them impatient.’
own existence.
Can’t be overlooked now
How the hell do you negotiate with the Cairo royal family when the existence that understands the intentions is clearly holding on?
It was an outcall.
If you can’t handle Roman.
They will disintegrate like sand castles.
‘With this, the goal has been achieved.’
Even if the opponent gives up and backs down.
Or fight to the end.
Roman’s contact created a variable.
With this one call, Hector’s kingdom can never go back to a better situation than before.
It was then.
[Are you Roman Dmitri?]
Edwin Hector.
After remaining silent, he finally responded.
