Chapter 126

……That crazy woman.

It seems that a 7th Circle dark magic was not enough to imprint Reed’s fear.

“Now is the time when the Saint is in charge of defense! Wizards are good at catching wizards! Drag him down!”

Madness dwelled in the eyes of Odellit, who was giving orders. Strategic calculations to make up for the credit lost in this Boss subjugation were clear.

I should have sealed that woman’s mouth first. It’s my mistake.

Everything happened in an instant.

Magic chains extending from various directions wrapped around Reed’s body and pulled him down to the ground.

Reed gently descended to the floor.

“The opponent is a high-ranking wizard! It will be weak in close combat!”

Just then, the red acidic rain stopped.

“Now!”

I saw the magic swordsmen rushing with Auras on their swords and as soon as I lifted the Silver Citadel, I shouted.

“No! He is……!”

Knowing very well that I can’t hold them back.

“He’s a magic swordsman……!”

The moment when my scream-like cry split at the end.

Sururu.

A sword formed in Reed’s right hand. A magical jet-black sword with red beads embedded in the hilt.

Dozens of Aura Blades of the same type were created in the air.

As if escorting him, they revolved around Reed once and spread out in a radial direction.

Dozens of aura blades traveled through the air and pierced the enemies. Every time he drew a trajectory, blood splattered and bones were pierced.

It was a festival of slaughter.

The magic swordsman unit rushing to the vanguard was annihilated in an instant.

“Oh my……god……a-aura m-master……how come……”

Odellit sat down in a puddle of blood with a devastated face.

I fixed my sword. I know my opponent was an Aura Master, but I need a sword.

Instead.

“Omnipotence. Sacrosanctity.”

I charged at Reed with an absolute defense buff.

Chaeeenggg-!

Reed’s sword and my sword rang a long cry of iron.

At the moment of the collision, each person’s hair was scattered in disarray due to the shock wave that exploded.

Silver and black hair that obstructed the vision sank down. His face, which I saw while confronting him at close range……

“…….”

“…….”

I gritted my teeth when I saw his softly smiling lips. I put all my strength into the sword.

“Omnipotence. Divine Hymn!”

I placed a higher-level buff and wielded my sword. Reed, who was pushed back in a momentary power struggle, stepped back into the distance.

I quickly closed the gap and caught up with him again.

Kang! Chaeeng! Chaeng Kang!

With maximum speed and maximum power, I poured out attacks and drove him, swinging my sword without stopping.

Because we have to finish it before Descent ends.

“Omnipotence. Divine punishment.”

An ultimate skill that was cast instantly. Dozens of thunderbolts hit the ground with a second of difference.

I used it to keep Reed’s Aura Blades in check and at the same time deftly guide his movement. Before I knew it, Reed and I were far away from our original position.

Over Reed’s shoulder, I could see the place I was aiming for.

I hit him with all my might and built up my support skills.

Sacred power enhancement. Target Stamping. Judgment Notice. Absolute execution.

And shouted my target skill.

“Omnipotence. Restrain.”

An advanced bondage skill was activated. white thorns wrapped around Reed’s body and I pulled him to where I intended.

There was a gate behind Reed. The very burst gate that I have the right to close.

The vortex inside the gate sped up as if to announce that the closing had begun. Reed, who glanced at this, parted his lips in admiration.

“Ah.”

“……”

“Are you trying to abandon me?”

My heart pounded at the first voice I heard.

I gritted my teeth and swung my sword again to rush him into the dungeon.

Chaee-Aeng!

Finally, his back touched the gate.

A little bit more. More. Just a bit more. A bit!

However, he tried to break free from the bondage of thorns, as if he did not want to flow into the garbage dump of the demon world.

His Aura Blades, powered by his will, cut through the dry bushes that restrained him as if hacking. The speed at which the thorns were destroyed was faster than the speed at which the branches could wrap around him.

At this rate……

It was a time when I felt disillusioned.

“Eli!”

“……!”

Thesilid’s cry stuck in my ears.

Did he chase us?

Why! In this dangerous place!

In the moment when my unrest was read by Reed.

Whoosh!

The Aura Blades all flew towards Thesilid.

He quickly swung the Holy Sword, but could not block all of the Aura Blades. Three black aura blades pierced Thesilid like a harpoon.

“Terry!”

“You need to focus.”

Reed turned my gaze back to him.

He fell deeper into the gate because he used the Aura Blade on Thesilid. He asked with a devilish grin on his face.

“Why are you around a bug like that?”

“……”

“That is not the place for you. With me……”

“……”

“Let’s fall into the abyss.”

“……!”

My wrist was hot.

A bleeding hand came through my sacred inviolability. Reed’s hand was holding me as if he couldn’t go alone.

A conditional offer to enter the dungeon where the closing started.

“……”

My head went cold.

Just in time, I could see the color returning to my hair, which was flying in a mess disturbing my vision.

Soon, a fever penalty will be imposed. Will I be able to survive in the demon world’s garbage dump like that?

“……It’s a question with a laughably obvious answer.”

I straightened the corner of my mouth that was about to twist. I did my best to smile brightly at Reed.

“Go ahead, Reed.”

“……”

After spitting it out, I corrected my tone and opened my mouth again. With the sweetest voice I could muster filled with respect and love.

“Agnes.”

“Thank you so much.”

“Bye.”

Tuk.

I took off the cross pendant and threw it away. I was very sorry for the harsh treatment, but I can’t let her get swept into the Demon World’s dump.

Let’s go now.

It was time to relax in order to fall into the deepest, darkest, and coldest pit of the demon world with Reed.

“……”

It suddenly came to mind.

Thesilid.

What about Thesilid?

The image of him bleeding from a piercing wound from an aura blade filled my mind.

I was trying not to look back so as not to provoke Reed, but at this moment all my nerves were on Thesilid.

I should be the one to heal him.

It must be me.

Without me, Thesilid dies.

Tak!

Reed’s red eyes bulged. It was because I shook his hand while he was off guard.

Right then.

Whuwiiiii!

The gate, which had swallowed Reed halfway, shrank in size and spun wildly like an abyssal whirlpool. Unbelievably, the dungeon closing was accelerating. Reed’s body quickly sank into the entrance of subspace by an irresistible force.

“……What is this about? You’re being arrogant about a dungeon that was promoted with my authority.”

“……”

“Well, okay. The intended purpose has been achieved.”

Even in this situation, Reed was relaxed. He just rolled his eyes and looked to the side.

Where his gaze landed, there was my hair, which had regained its color and was fluttering in the wind.

Alas, I see.

He had been hanging out here with the purpose of finding out the duration of Descent from the beginning.

When I realized that horrifying truth.

“See you later, Ellet Rodellaine.”

Sururu.

Reed’s last traces were gone. Together with the gate that has been condensed into small holes that disappeared.

“Ah……”

I did it.

I blocked Reed.

A shiver ran through my whole body. It felt like my head was shaking with delirium and heat. I felt like I was about to collapse at any moment, but I persevered and turned around.

“Terry……”

In the distance, I saw him with his head down in a kneeling position. Everything under his silver head was red.

[ You suffer from ‘God’s Fever’ as a result of unreasonable use of the Divinity. Sleep is recommended for recovery. Remaining time 1 day 23 hours 59 minutes.]

I struggled to lift my wobbly legs and walked out.

[ Warning. Resistance to ‘God’s Fever’ will damage your body function. Sleep is recommended. Time remaining: 1 day 23 hours 59 minutes.]

My body felt like a cotton sack soaked in hot water. I don’t know if I’m walking or if I’m dragging myself.

[ Warning. Vision is impaired by resisting ‘God’s Fever’. Sleep is recommended. Time remaining: 1 day 23 hours 59 minutes.]

A terrible high fever clouded my eyes. The shapes and textures of objects were blurred and crushed and only colors were barely distinguishable.

Red spot. I just have to go to the reddest place.

[ Warning. Hearing is impaired by resisting ‘God’s Fever’. Sleep is recommended. Time remaining: 1 day 23 hours 59 minutes.]

“──.”

The world had become peaceful and quiet.

I kept walking, thinking it wasn’t bad.

Is it about ten steps ahead?

Hang in there. Move a little more, Ellet Rodellaine.

[ Warning. The function of body parts is blocked by resisting the ‘God’s Fever’. Sleep is recommended. Time remaining: 1 day 23 hours 59 minutes.]

Thump.

My legs collapsed helplessly.

Oh, how come? Why now?

I can’t.

I crawled on the floor with both arms.

[ Warning. The function of body parts is blocked by resisting the ‘God’s Fever’…

It was clear what was going to be taken next.

I wonder if he will be listening.

‘World God, sir, I hate you……’

Instead of giving up approach, I reached out.

The wire carrying Aura stretched out. Just by using this little amount of power, blood flowed backward.

I hope the end of this thread will reach him.

I prayed earnestly and let the power of healing flow. I poured out divinity while vomiting blood.

With only one wish.

You can’t go to the next round, Thesilid Argent.

Please, stay on this timeline where I am.

[ Warning. All body functions are blocked.]

It was a limit beyond the limit.

My mind went black.
