The Priest of Corruption - Chapter 39

Big success!

Big success!

A straight, silver body ran across the snowy field.

The lower body of a horse made of metal and the upper body clad in silver armor. The knight’s right arm, which took the form of a half-man, half-horse, took the form of a lance in an instant.

[Give it to me now! Worshipers of evil spirits dare to covet my things! That’s going to be my Immortalium!]

“Chit.”

Kirna, a blue-haired woman with short tongue, shouted as she touched the floor.

“It’s ‘frozen ice’!”

A huge barrier of ice rose between the woman and Aurelius. he didn’t stop No, on the contrary, I increased my speed by playing with my four feet more quickly.

[Don’t think you can stop me with tricks like this!]

Quaang!

The silver lance carrying the mass of its heavy metal body collided with the ice wall. The ice walls could not withstand the impact and shattered. Kirna screamed.

“That’s crazy! It’s insane!”

After attacking and peeling off the gold leaf, the real ‘body’ of the gold people who revealed their identity was unbelievably made of frost steel. Somehow, among the boxes he was carrying, he succeeded in stealing the box delivered by command, but as soon as the gold man noticed that the box was stolen, he changed into a half-man, half-horse form and started chasing like crazy.

“Has it come yet? I’m really dying like this! I’m dying!”

Rhutum, a brown-haired man, answered loudly.

“Wait a minute! Hold on a little longer! Somehow!”

“That’s easy! Hey! Pelm! You should do something too!”

[You can’t do anything!]

Aurelius shouted harshly, raising his lance again and speeding through the snow.

“I’m just about ready.”

A man called Pelm stamped his feet violently, and shadows squirmed and rose from under the body of a galloping horse. The shadows that climbed on Aurelius’ ankles caught on his feet and stretched.

power not so strong. However, it was enough power to make Aurelius lose his center of gravity as he ran through the snow with all his might.

The silver half-man, half-horse knight who lost his balance rolled on the floor. Kirna let out a cheer.

“Nice job! Felm! I’ll kiss you warmly when it’s over! You’re ‘ice frozen’!”

thud! thud! thud! thud!

Four pillars of ice rose around Aurelius as he tried to stand up again. The blue lights emanating from the base of the pillar

ran over the earth, trapping Aurelius within the blue line.

“Freeze it!”

The temperature in the area created by the lines dropped rapidly. The extreme cold created by the power of ‘frozen ice’ penetrated Aurelius’ body. White frost occupied the silver fuselage. All of his joints, which had been moving smoothly, froze.

Aurelius shouted vigorously as his metal teeth snapped together.

[Such tricks!]

He increased his control over the metal that made up his body. In the first place, my current body was only this size because I couldn’t get more frost steel. His core was able to handle much larger amounts of metal.

bang!

The back foot, which should have been frozen, moved and kicked the floor vigorously. Aurelius, who jumped out of the realm in an instant, threw out his lance.

[I’ll kill you, the one who bothers me the most!]

The pointy tip of the lance aimed precisely at Kirna’s body and stretched out without hesitation. Kirna exclaimed urgently.

“Why, why!

“It’s done! Kirna bow down!”

Kirna quickly bent down and a white caterpillar emerged from behind her through the snow-covered floor. The ‘intestinal worm’ spat at Aurelius the acid he had collected and collected so far.

Chiiyi profit.

[Quaaaaaaagh!]

Aurelius, who hadn’t uttered a sound of pain so far, let out a scream of pain and rolled on the floor. After confirming the effectiveness of the ‘intestinal worm’ prepared in advance, Rhutum smiled.

“Did you really think that we wouldn’t have prepared for the gold race?

Endangered gut worms were animals that stung like stingers by producing acid that dissolved metals. In addition, the gold people who touched the mountain of intestine worms felt extreme pain, so the intestine worm was the creature that the gold people hated the most.

“Can’t you do it sooner? Huh? I really thought I was going to die!”

Kirna straightened her back and shot at Rhutum. Rhutum quickly withdrew his sneer at Aurelius and scratched the back of his head.

“As you know, intestinal worms can’t exhale that much acid, and they don’t live in cold regions in the first place. Anyone can make them move like that, huh?”

“Why are you making such lame excuses? You don’t look like much.”

The gut worm and Rhutum lowered their heads at the same time at Kirna’s sharp words.

“You’re talking too much…”

[Queueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu might be mighty.]

The silver helmet, which was full of fancy decorations, had already lost its shape and was constantly melting. The gold people were very vulnerable to the pain given by the acid of the intestinal worms because their bodies did not feel pain well in the first place.

Kirna looked down at the struggling Aurelius and smiled.

“Hey. Rhutum.”

“Yes why?”

“Look at that bug next to you and ask him to spit some more. He’s wriggling less.”

I wanted to see these gold people wriggling a little more violently and crawling across the floor.

“It’s not spit, it’s acid, and since the temperature here is low, you can’t make it at will, so if you’re just going to kill that gold man, just take out the core…”

“Ah, shut up! If you want to try it, try it!”

“Okay…”

thud! thud! thud! thud!

– That ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!

A gigantic giant came running through the snow field with a scream. Kirna’s eyes widened when she identified the giant of corruption.

“Hey, what is that again?! There was no story like that! Rhutum! Do something! If you solve it well, I’ll kiss you too!”

Rhutum answered quickly.

“To get it, we have to call in all the guys we sent to kill the survivors! Is that okay? Huh?”

“Right now, we look dangerous, what are you asking! Hurry up! And where did Pearly go again! Anyway, that idiot is real! Pelm, watch me! I’ll stop you first! It’s ‘frozen ice’!”

A wall of pure white ice rose up. The giant of corruption kicked his seat vigorously, looking at the ice wall rising endlessly.

The huge body soared like a bird and jumped over the ice wall. Kirna’s mouth dropped open at the spectacle created by agility that was not suitable for her size.

“Mi, crazy…”

Landing gracefully, the Decaying Giant let out a roar at the worshipers of the evil god.

– That ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!

As the three sighed, the giant of decay charged the worshipers of the evil god. The giant, who closed the distance in an instant, threw out his fist. Just before the fists could crush them, Kirna grabbed Pelm’s forearm and shouted.

“Shadow! Use the shadow quickly!”

“I get it.”

bang!

The giant’s fist struck the ground with a narrow gap. Worshipers of a vanished evil god burst forth from the shadows of nearby trees.

“Whoah! I really thought I was going to die! Rhutum! How far are the snowfield bats and Capel?”

“I’ll be back in a little while!”

– That ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!

The giant roared as he found the demon’s worshipers.

“Rhutum! Pelm!”

“huh!”

“uh.”

Kirna rolled up her arms and smiled, showing her white teeth.

“I’m going to try a really big one, so take some time!”

***

– That ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!

When I arrived, the battle between the giants of corruption and the demon worshipers was heating up.

Dozens of snowfield bats constantly pounced on the decaying giant and scratched the giant’s skin. Fifteen capels moved swiftly and pounded the giant’s lower body.

Yes, it wasn’t exactly heated, but the giant of corruption was being beaten one-sidedly by being outnumbered. While struggling, they tried to resist somehow, but the swiftly moving group of monsters did not easily meet the giant’s attack.

I quickly hid behind a tree and whispered to Dacia.

“Can you move?”

“Wait.”

Dakia, freed from my arms, stood on the ground and smiled broadly.

“You move well now.”

She peeked her face out to the side of the tree trunk, surveyed the situation, and asked in a low voice.

“But shouldn’t I go and help right away?

“I’d like to, too, but…”

I stretched out my finger and pointed to a place.

“Look over there.”

There was Aurelius with the plating peeling off. Dacia confirmed Aurelius and nodded her head knowingly.

“I understand why you didn’t go to help right away. But what should we do now? If we continue like this, the giant will be defeated.”

Fighting alongside the giant of decay in front of Aurelius’ eyes was tantamount to shyly confessing to him, ‘I am a worshiper of evil gods.’

“It looks like Aurelius is up to something, so let’s hide here and watch the situation for a bit.”

“all right.”

As Dacia slumped down next to me, Aurelius jumped up from his seat and shouted in an angry voice that the sky should go away.

[The goddamn worshippers of evil spirits!!! I’ll really kill them all!!!]

I don’t know what the hell happened, but I’m really angry.

Aurelius jumped up and changed into a half-man, half-horse made of silvery metal and galloped across the snow. His outstretched hand took the form of a lance in an instant.

There were three men and women standing where the tip of the charging lance pointed, and it was clear that they were the worshipers of the demons Pearly had spoken about.

The blue-haired woman frowned.

“Oh, why does he recover so quickly! Whoever is good, stop him! He’s coming straight to me! You should use this on that giant, not him!”

“I’ll try something!”

As the brown-haired man waved his hand, some of the snowfield bats that were attacking the Rotting Giant fell off to stop Aurelius.

Aurelius, enraged to the tip of his head, crossed the snow field even faster. His left arm, a chunk of silvery metal, crumbled and flowed down his body to his right. The metal that had turned to liquid covered the lance in disarray.

Aurelius shouted as he raised his lance.

[I will definitely kill you!!!]

The snowfield bats blocking his way could not overcome the impact of the lance and turned to blood in an instant.

Aiming at the moment when the worshipers of the evil god turned their eyes at the angry gilman tribe, the giant of corruption ignored defense and ran across the ground and stretched out his arms.

– That ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!

And I threw the thing in my hand in the exact direction I was at.

bang!

A bright red clot of blood flew through the air and landed next to the tree where I was hiding. What the decaying giant threw to where I was was the crushed corpse of a snowfield bat.

Why is this…?

‘killing!!!’

Mother’s urgent cry. I jumped up from my seat and dug through the crushed lumps of flesh. Something caught in my hand. He took out the object he was holding and brushed off the blood and flesh on it.

“This, this…”

Copper-colored metal necklace.

It was the fourth sacred object that Aurelius had.

You gave the stolen relic to the snowfield bat.

– That ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!

Due to the giant of corruption ignoring defenses and rushing, he suffered deep wounds here and there and was falling into inferiority. But in his roar, I felt a strong sense of satisfaction that I had done it.

The giant’s gaze was directed exactly where I was.

he trusted me

yes this time

“Mother, yours. I will return it here and now.”

‘killing!’

A dark green light emanated from the copper-colored metal necklace and seeped into my body and my mother’s hands.

[Divinity: 13379]

Ten thousand divinities.

A divinity that can gain new powers or strengthen existing ones.

– That ah ah ah ah ah…

The voice of the giant of corruption gradually diminished.

I grabbed my mother’s hand and quickly opened my mouth.

“Mother. This time, I will strengthen the existing power without awakening a new one.”

‘killing!’

What kind of authority do you plan to strengthen?

“Of course, the powers I will strengthen…”
