chapter 27
27. The Delusioner (5)
27. Delusional (5)
Clap clack clap clap, the copper general walking slowly making the sound of his armor. At the point of Part 3, it is said that the opponent is a normal mob, but at this point, it is a boss monster that cannot be ignored. It means that even if me and Ren Nishia were to play against each other, we would not be able to win.
“…… “
I looked towards Nishia. A potion is seen to be broken under Nishia’s feet. This is the potion I gave Denas to feed when he arrived at a place where there was no human eye. There is another bottle of the same, but judging from the current situation, feeding it doesn’t seem easy.
With the discharged Denas already stretched out, General Dong is watching Denas with both eyes open.
“Ren, take Denas and retreat first. We can’t beat that with our skills.”
“Are you saying you ran away too?”
“Think flexibly. In front of the old building, Princess Lerisha was also sitting in the first year’s top second seat. It’s worth trying if you just lure them there.”
Even if this guy is dealt with as a rogue, there is a part that bothers me. General Dong originally appeared in Telcan, and was not summoned like other undead to go to boss battles, but was lured by Heylia and appeared as a boss monster.
It means undead that cannot be summoned. The problem is that such a general, Dong, crossed the portal and appeared at Arisha Academy.
Aren’t they just glancing over there, as if they were aiming for Denas? Even with , I couldn’t completely control General Dong.
But now, even though I only robbed the information that was dormant in . Aren’t you using General Dong like a limb? Originally, it is an impossible feat. We have no choice but to judge that this is the result of some powerful force intervening. It was something with greater power than .
In my personal opinion, Zakat is reviving as planned, and isn’t it using the power of Zakat that is being released?
“Chit… Ren has no time. Nishia! Throw a flashbang!”
“Yes, four!”
Nishia, who was nervous watching General Dong, throws a flash grenade. At the same time, I threw the 「Spicy Smoke Potion」 At General Dong.
Go away! Along with sound, intense light illuminates the forest. Ren and I ran toward Nishia without hesitation. I hold Nishia’s hand, and Ren puts Denas on his back. Then, you and I ran without doing anything.
Ren probably knows too. In the current situation, there is no chance of winning if you stick with that.
ㅡ 『Huh… 』
I can hear General Dong’s breathing, and the surroundings start to get chilly at once. The atmosphere cooled, and I turned my head. Then I saw him poised with his sword raised.
“Ren! Roll aside!”
Bang!
I pulled Nishia’s hand and rolled over to her side. Ren also quickly notices and throws himself to her side. Then, in the place where we had just been standing, I see a pillar of ice rising as tall as me. To be precise, the slash that started from the tip of General Dong’s sword flew all the way here, creating ice crystals in the orbit.
“Ugh… “
I couldn’t help but frown at the considerable power. If it’s a game, it’s said that you get hit with your body and survive with potions, but this is reality. If you get hit by that, it is certain that you will be crippled somewhere, let alone a potion.
When I was so flustered, Nishia got up before me and grabbed my hand and helped me up.
“Seo, senior, are you okay?”
“Thank you.”
As it were, we ran to the old Arisha Academy building with all the strength we had been sucking on.
And so the death chase began. But it was strange. General Dong didn’t use any skills other than the technique he just used, , And just followed him with a moderate distance.
Let’s arrive in front of the old academy building, where people will be gathering.
ㅡ『hahahaha!』
A beautiful snow woman. The boss of the Arisha route in Act 7 of Part 1. You can see the Winter Ghost and the members of Rin and Ren confronting each other. The ice ghost puts a magic shield on its body. She is receiving the swordsmanship of Lerry Sha and Ray Plain with her body.
It’s dangerous.
“Princess Larisha! Get off the rayplane! No physical attacks!”
Involuntarily, I shouted. Winter Ghost’s protective shield has the effect of absorbing physical damage and converting it into magical power. As if it wasn’t a boss fight, as miscellaneous undead came in, Rin’s party and Ren’s party were all tied up.
Formation collapse. Since they were fighting in a jumbled mess without even forming a formation, it was impossible to achieve optimal efficiency. It’s like entering the boss room and taking a picture of the attack land, and it’s natural to sigh.
This is a real massacre. Isn’t it the situation that not only winter ghosts, but also General Dong are approaching behind us?
“Nishia. Wren. Senior Denas, please.”
I shouted as I ran to the battlefield.
“Eldenia, if you don’t want to see everyone die, install a barrier on Princess Lelisha’s side! Remi, you protect the saintess. Rinner covers Ren, who is following her! Aren’t you moving quickly?”
“Uh, uh, four!”
Saint Eldenia showed a confused look at my cry, and stretched out her hand toward Lerisha. Eldenia concentrating on installing a barrier. When the saintess’ castle attribute attack stopped, her skeleton soldiers all rushed towards El Denia. However, Remy puts all her energy into protecting her saint from the undead as I directed.
“Slope. Stick together so Ren and Nishia can join. Follow Sotia Slopes. Don’t ask why, hurry up!”
Party members stop fighting and start changing formations. At the same time, the winter ghost, which has absorbed physical power to its limit, creates a magic bullet and shoots it at Lerisha and Layplane. However, like most undead attacks, it is infinitely weak against holy barriers.
The barrier and the magic bullet meet to create an intense shockwave. However, Lerisha and Rayplane endured the shockwave with their teeth gritting. Then they raise their swords to give the winter ghost a shot. But.
“Lerisha, stop attacking Layplane and go this way. If you don’t want to die, come quickly!”
“Let’s go. Raple…. Uh?”
Lerisha and Layplane looked into each other’s eyes and immediately joined in the direction of the party members. Forming a circle, on the left is a winter ghost. On the right is General Dong, and the situation where he is cornered among miscellaneous undead. In the middle of the formation were Ren and Denas.
“Rin, Ren, the two of you lead each party. Ren is General Dong. Rin handles the winter ghosts.”
“Me, me? How-“
“Don’t ask why.”
Lin, who was about to ask a question, shuts her mouth.
“On the lean side, Slop, Remi, and Eldenia Sotia stick together. Sotia and Eldenia, focus on protecting the party members.”
“No, who are you”
“A bare-legged mage, I will do what Woros-senpai wants me to do.”
“A hawk, bare legs?”
Slop blocks Remy from trying to come in after arguing.
“On Ren’s side, Lelisha, Layplane, and even Nishia. Nishia puts a status quo on General Dong. Rayplane handles mobs. Ren and Lerisha are in charge of General Dong”
“Did you say Lerisha?”
“… Princess Lelisha will stick with General Dong. If Irina comes to visit, let her join us.”
Ren nods her head, and Nishia looks at me with a worried expression. I’ve squeezed the best party I can make now. Against winter ghosts that absorb physical damage, the mages are mainly organized, but Sotia, who will protect party members from rubbish mobs and projectiles, and Eldenia, who will support Sotia, are also deployed.
General Dong cuts down magic. For that reason, if you want to catch him, you have no choice but to stab him with physical damage. In fact, if you cast Nishia’s status ailment well, you can easily defeat it like most melee bosses.
The problem is that if you allow General Dong’s technique even once, you will be seriously injured, and mistakes can be caused due to the existence of miscellaneous mobs.
Put Ren and Lerisha, whose stats are focused on dual stamina and vitality, with the boss, and Rayplane, which is fast and has high vitality and has the highest stamina recovery per minute, takes care of the busiest mobs. If Irina was there, it would have been perfect, but now Irina has left.
And then, I will break the magic on Denas and enter Telcan. I’ll check if Zakat is resurrected, and I’ll finish the job. If she is resurrected, I plan to quickly get out of the portal, destroy her exit, and announce Zakat’s resurrection. Then someone will go and subdue them.
“Denas-senpai is this way… Denas?”
Like a zombie, Denas was slowly heading towards the old building with his body hanging limp. Here he found one strange part. Even though living humans were walking defenselessly, the undead were ignoring Denas. It’s like…
“Enchanted?”
It doesn’t matter who cast what skill on Denas right now. One important fact is that Denas Yeseul is now walking towards a building with a portal connected to Telcan.
I was contemplating throwing the That I had made before Dae Irina, which makes all wills disappear, at Denas. No. The devil is gaining strength by provoking Denas’ inner world, so it’s not enough for all willpower to disappear for a moment.
Above all. Potions cannot be used in this situation. There is a reason I asked Nishia to take Denas to an empty place and give him a potion.
For the potion to exert its power, it must be created in an environment where there are no people and the head can be completely empty. Even if you can’t do it, if there are people around you other than Denas himself and the person trying to feed the potion, the effect will be drastically reduced.
In the game, Seems to have been set like this because it is an item exclusively for Ilto.
Like a dead person for a moment, you need to stop all thoughts. To have that much effect, Denas had to drink this potion himself. When I run to Denas with such thoughts, skeleton soldiers holding an ax block the path.
“Ugh, Denas!”
Wooddeuk!ㅡ
It was when three skeletons blocked my path. I thought something shiny passed by, and the skull’s head flew into the sky. It seems that Layplane Aginis showed his skills.
“Rayplane… “
“I don’t know what a junk mob is, but deal with the junk mob. That is how it was received.”
“Thank you.”
Rayplane only nodded and turned towards Nishia. I ran towards Denas at full speed. At that time, a wave of magical power arose and I fell to the side without knowing it.
You have to wake up. If Denas enters Telkan, it is certain that things will be irreversibly twisted. The devil will kidnap Denas, shake off every drop of magic left in her body, and invest in Zakat’s resurrection. So, it must be blocked.
“Denas! Come back!”
The figure of Denas has become invisible due to the skeleton rising through the ground. In my own strength. You can’t chase Denas through this group of skeletons. Now I have no choice but to cry and pray after throwing the white flower potion at Denas in the manner of eating mustard. It was when I was thinking that.
Kwang!ㅡ Kwajijik!ㅡ
A shock similar to an earthquake occurred, and then all the skeletons in front of my eyes were swept away. At the same time, a tremendous earthquake occurs, the ground is shattered, soil collects, and walls are built on both sides. The wall extends to the old building of Arisha.
Only one person can do such nonsense.
“Senior! Gossip show! He said he would take care of this case himself. Isn’t it?”
“Slope… “
I can hear the voice of an excited Slop from beyond the wall. It seems that the rage buff has been activated. If so, I don’t think it would matter if I left this battlefield to him. A slope with anger turned on is truly invincible.
“I’ll finish it soon and come back, so stay alive!”
“Isn’t my name line long? Senior, be careful.”
“Yes! See you later.”
I’m covered in dust, I can’t see. I ran aimlessly down the road. Believing that he would be able to reach the building safely if he followed the path the slope had made, he ran aimlessly even though the dust prevented visibility.
I arrived at the entrance of the building and passed through the entrance of the building that was already open. Until this time, Denas is not seen.
“Senior Denas! Can you hear me!?”
I shouted that, but as expected no answer came. I recklessly stepped up the stairs. 4Th floor. Behind the secret door in the principal’s office, a portal to Telkan. If you go there, Denas will surely be there.
“Senior Denas!”
I entered the office on the 4th floor, but I couldn’t see her. I could only see a portal that emitted a lot of cold air and emitted yellow light. I threw myself into the portal without hesitation.
My vision briefly reversed, and I felt as if my body was floating in the air. After that, cold air fills my lungs, and I feel like I’m stepping on the ground, and my vision changes. Outside the portal, dozens of identical pillars were erected in a large place like a playground.
Closed with the establishment of Arisha Academy. They had arrived at Arisha’s Magic Tower.
Shortly thereafter, I was able to spot Denas, who had passed out on the floor, and Heylia, the woman in the mask, who was walking backwards to avoid something from her.
“I, I brought you back to life…” “
“…… “
“Say, live. Save me… “
A gigantic man who is over 2m tall and wears rusty, but oddly shiny armor. He was holding a golden spear, and he was in the shape of a skeleton, as if his resurrection hadn’t been perfect. Instinctively I could figure out what it was.
Zakat
Shaiza clearly warned that if Zakat is resurrected, the academy will be destroyed. So I tried to block it. He tried but failed. It’s not perfect, but Zakat is revived.
“I am… That person! That person is more interested than me, ugh!”
Zakat grabs her Heylia by the collar and lifts her up. Heylia grabs Zakat’s wrist and kicks her leg.
“Kahuck, Shah, Shayza… Shaiza’s successor… “
“… Shaiza’s successor?”
“Yes, ugh, that, that person… Woros Blood… “
Heylia gestures to me, and Zakat turns her head to look at me. Then Zakat roughly tosses Heylia and walks toward me.
“Woros Blood… “
Diring!ㅡ
[I feel fear to the extent that it interferes with my mission. It blocks emotions.]
I got goose bumps at Zakat’s voice. I turned and tried to exit the portal. No matter what happened, Zakat had to be prevented from entering the academy. I thought so, but hesitated for a moment.
If I go through the portal and destroy the exit, I might be able to delay Zakat’s entry into the academy, but the calculation that Denas would inevitably be isolated and die in Telkan made me hesitate. Then Zakat’s spear flew in and stabbed the middle of the portal.
At the same time, the light from the portal disappears. The exit is blocked.
“Whoa… Shaiza’s successor… Woros Blood… “
Zakat said that and rushed towards me.
Diring!ㅡ
[I feel fear to the extent that it interferes with my mission. It blocks emotions.]
Is this a characteristic of Blood’s body? As Zakat gets closer, his skin begins to tingle.
Diring!ㅡ
[I feel fear to the extent that it interferes with my mission. It blocks emotions.]
It felt like I was experiencing it for the first time, but I felt like I could accurately recognize what it was.
Diring!ㅡ
[I feel fear to the extent that it interferes with my mission. It blocks emotions.]
This is the displeasure emitted by an overwhelming presence that can’t be defeated no matter what. It’s murder. And that murderous intent was directed at me, and not at anyone else.
