To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 193
Episode 193 Crisis of the Empire (2) After
packing up with the Holy Knights and getting on the carriage, numerous imperial knights greeted me.
The modest appearance unfolding in front of the castle gate was truly spectacular.
“salute!”
chuck-! Remedy-!
With the sound of the armor colliding, I straightened my shoulders and straightened my back.
Chaeeng-!
The sound of friction mixed with the anticipation of the weapons was heard, and the path of the sword was made sparkling in the sunlight.
The wagon slowly moves through it, moving away from the castle gate little by little.
It was the Lessian Empire that I had become quite familiar with.
I was a bit sad when I left like this.
Without moving, he passed the knights who had stopped and left the gate.
Pass the street where the Seungmu festival was held and leave the fountain where the fireworks were held behind.
‘Because it’s a place I’ll have to come back to someday.’
Thinking of that, I let go of my regret.
Maybe leaving a lingering impression would be quite good for the next time.
With a much more comfortable mind, I lay down deeply on the back of the carriage when a loud explosion erupted.
Kwaaaang-!
The great commotion startled the horses and rocked the carriage.
Like the horses, the panicked Paladins calmed the horses and cast their gaze at the place where the roar came from.
Ray also pulled his head out of the carriage.
Then, what he saw was smoke rising from the imperial castle.
A roar rang out again.
Aaaaaang-!
It’s a bigger explosion than before.
At that level, only one or two tolerable buildings would have been destroyed ridiculously.
Thanks to this, only those in the Holy Land who were about to leave the empire were now bustling.
“It’s on the Hwangseong side!”
“Beware of your surroundings! Prioritize the comfort of the Holy Son!”
“yes!”
Various voices were heard and the paladins moved busily.
Ray got out of the wagon and looked around.
I was soaked in the lingering sound, so I exploded it as it was.
In a way, these absurd appearances are like the empires we have seen so far.
He asked the leader, Heor.
“What happen?”
Heor hurriedly arranged the lineup of knights and answered.
“It hasn’t been confirmed yet… but I guess the imperial castle was attacked.”
“The imperial castle was attacked?”
“Otherwise, there would be no reason for such an explosion inside the castle.”
It is true.
Even if the stored explosives exploded at the same time, the things inside the imperial castle alone couldn’t make this level of roar.
If you think about the possibilities, magic will be the most powerful.
Ray pulled up the trouser hem of his sincerity that flowed down to his waist.
“No one was hurt on our side?”
“doesn’t exist. The explosion seems to have occurred only within the imperial castle.”
“thank god. Tie the wagon loosely around. Don’t leave your luggage unattended, and the 3rd Star Knights will wait here until I come. Oh, while I’m waiting, I’ll ask for the guidance of the refugees.”
“yes?”
When Heor asked, as if he was flustered, Ray answered seriously.
“I don’t have time right now. If there are a few more explosions like that, even the imperial castle will collapse. If that happens, the emperor and Nabal will all die.”
“But… such a dangerous place…”
You cannot take a saint to a place that looks so dangerous.
Heor, who was about to say that, had no choice but to shut his mouth before he could finish.
Who is the saint in front of you?
He is the one who fought against the worst black magician called Necromancer who closed an era, and is a war hero who single-handedly subdued even the rebels in the Holy Land.
I didn’t think that such a person would die from being caught in an explosion.
Ray looked at Heor and smiled.
“Trust me.”
Heor, who hesitated for a moment at his words, got down on one knee.
“The commander of the 3rd Star Knights, Heor, accepts the order of the Holy Son.”
Seongguk’s trust in Ray is no joke.
In addition, in the case of the paladins who fought together on the front line, it was much more.
As much as he witnessed his power in front of his eyes, as much as he raised the kingdom from great crisis several times.
Just one word from the saint evokes trustworthiness approaching religious belief.
Upon hearing Heor’s answer, Ray activates mana in his body and shoots off the ground like an arrow.
I don’t know what kind of madmen are throwing magic at the castle, but the opponent is a person who can break through the magic barrier.
Even a 6th-circle mage would honestly not know if that would be possible.
That’s why I couldn’t hastily calculate the opponent’s strength.
‘Looks like they’re all going to die.’
His steps towards the imperial castle gradually accelerated.
* * *
In the middle of the imperial castle, a confrontation was going on.
Even the soldiers standing in the vanguard with spears and shields and the knights supporting them.
Being the heart of the empire, the display was at a considerable level for being equipped in a short period of time.
Standing in front of them were Wyverns.
With Lilith as the lead, several elderly people stand behind her, followed by numerous middle-aged people.
Let’s gather together in one place and slowly shed mana.
Since it was a sufficient weapon in itself, the Imperial Knights had to respond accordingly.
The empire, which was suddenly attacked by the imperial castle, spoke first.
“You filthy wyverns! Dare to attack the empire, it seems like you guys made up your mind to die!”
They were in a very bad mood, thinking they had been preemptively attacked.
The words that came out naturally were not nice.
Because it wasn’t enough to bring them into the depths of the imperial castle, which could be said to be an important place, and they were confronted without being able to drive them out.
However, it was the same for Wyverns.
They were the ones who were attacked first in the first place.
An old man standing behind Lilith burst into the street.
“You say that you have a pierced mouth! Aren’t you the one who attacked without even knowing the subject?
At his words, one of the knights showed his teeth and growled.
“You despicable bastards! It’s a slander that doesn’t work!”
Naturally, the conversation didn’t mesh.
Recognizing that each other was a victim, I couldn’t hear anything.
Lilith looked around with cold eyes.
“Guide me to your Emperor. let’s have a conversation If even this is rejected, the imperial castle will face the end of its long history.”
A chill rose from those who faced her incoherent voice.
As the wyvern’s fear, which naturally spreads while talking, came over the body, even knights were considerably restricted in their speculation and actions.
In addition, although it is controlled, it is a pier of the wyvern road.
As long as she has lived for a long time, her peers have already entered a state.
They answered in a trembling voice.
“…That can’t be… I can’t…”
“Ugh… I’d rather… die here…!”
Overcome primal fear and invite death.
‘The attitude of an imperial knight is quite good.’
Lilith closed her eyes for a moment.
what happened
Anyway, I already know where the emperor is.
The only difference was whether they were going or they were guiding them.
However, since the answer came from them that it was impossible, I plan to destroy the imperial castle as I said.
Lilith moved her small mouth.
“Many of my compatriots died. That sorrow will be washed away with human blood. Destroy the building and kill the humans to make them realize their folly!”
The elderly and middle-aged people gave brief answers to her words of magic.
“yes!”
“yes!”
Having received orders, they were truly unstoppable.
“Fire explosion!”
“Earth spear!”
As the large-scale magic unfolded, even the imperial castle had no choice but to collapse helplessly.
As they wandered around and destroyed the castle, they could not find the glorious past of the imperial castle.
The imperial knights countered by forcibly moving their bodies, which were not moving well thanks to peer.
There was only one.
When Lilith lowered her hand in the air, a small blood line appeared.
The line literally took the lives of the knights.
“Aagh!”
“My… cool! Even if I die, I won’t forget you guys…”
I think it’s human because I spit out a hateful voice while vomiting blood.
Soon after, reinforcements from the Empire arrived.
Among them was Gregory, who had come to the Holy Land as reinforcements.
He frowned at the seriousness of the situation around him.
‘It doesn’t make sense.’
Along with the horse, he draws out his sword and commands the surroundings.
“The Knights form groups of five and take on the Wyverns! If you hold out a little longer, reinforcements will come again! We deal with a bunch of wicked Wyverns while they come!”
“All right!”
With short answers, they were well-trained and straightened out the display in no time.
Their appearance gave me a bit of a breather.
When the five of them started to deal with one Wyvern, there was even a sign that the Wyvern was being pushed back.
Lilith looked at Gregory and shook her head.
“Holding on until reinforcements come… it’s futile. Accept the sin of daring to touch the Wyvern Rare.”
At her words, Gregory gulped down his saliva.
Even though he was a sword master, the mana he felt from the wyvern in front of him was on a different level.
To the extent that it felt uncertain whether he would be able to kill even if he hit the attack directly with the Aura Blade.
‘It’s not good… If we keep going like this, it’ll be hard to endure. I try to pull the time as much as possible.’
Thinking so, he took out his aura blade from the beginning.
His mana flowed out of the center of the sword and they gathered together.
The well-refined Aura Blade clearly showed its presence.
However, it is true that it did not pose any threat to Lilith.
She was chanting revenge at one point.
“Earth spear. Fire pillar. Wind cutter.”
Ku-Goo-Goo Palace-
The earth’s axis shakes, and spears made of stone spring up from the ground.
Is that all? The pillar of flame boasted of hot heat and threateningly pressed, and the flames spread to the wind-type magic that passed him.
It wasn’t even long before the castle began to burn.
Gregory let out a drool as he cut the blade of the wind.
“Umm…”
The shock felt in his hand was no joke.
I couldn’t imagine how much damage it would take to large-scale magic if it was only this much against wind-type magic like Wind Cutter.
‘If the distance widens, it is inevitable.’
Gregory, who thought so, skillfully moved and avoided the Earth Spear, and it was possible to reach Lilith’s close range to some extent.
That was all.
Every time she approached and tried to swing her sword, her magic stabbed at the exact point where her power was connected at the right time, so the proper blow did not go in.
It’s to the point where I feel despair at such a clear difference in skill.
Gregory gritted his teeth and cut her off.
Lilith, who had easily blocked it, waved her hand once, and blood lines formed again.
However, Gregory, who had been thrown back by her defense just in time, could not regain his balance.
‘Upper is dangerous!’
Fuuk-
Blood lines passed through Gregory’s body, leaving cut marks.
