chapter 236
“… … to?”
Michaela’s face was once again stained with embarrassment.
“Dame Michaela! Take it!”
A cardinal throwing a bunch of rosary beads towards Michaela from afar.
Michaela, who had been bruised for a moment by the sight, threw herself in amazement when she realized that what was flying was none other than a sacred object from the Vatican.
“Okay, got it!”
After barely receiving the holy relic, she laughed hahahaha as she looked at the rosary in her hand, and soon questioned why she had thrown herself to secure it.
‘By the way, why are you giving this to me? You reported that I was needed?’
However, she stopped worrying by shaking her head and stood up from her seat, hanging the rosary on her arm.
Because right now, it was a very urgent item.
“thank you. Cardinal degradation.”
Wrapping the rosary so that it wouldn’t fall off, she clenched her fists again and began to fight.
If the Vatican’s elite troops had come, it would have been a good enough fight.
“──Knights. Prepare the temple.”
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
At the same time, the high-pitched sound of the blown trumpet reverberates, and the knights begin to form formation.
Damn-duck-dapped-dapped-
standing at the front of the procession
Dozens of heavily armored cavalry begin forming a wedge formation.
– You’re doing something funny.
As a result, the snakes that had been hanging from Typhon’s head so far began to land on the ground one by one.
There is only one reason why Typhon’s snakes, which have judged that they do not have to move, have moved.
It was because he felt an unusual energy from those heavy armored cavalrymen.
“Geochang (擧槍)!”
With the cry of the cardinal, the cavalrymen lifted the spears that were hanging down.
This is the scary thing about the Vatican.
An army of people with similar abilities based on faith.
They had the characteristic of being stronger when united than as individuals.
The divine powers emitted from each body are intertwined and a single mass is created.
As a result, Typhon’s snakes also form a tight gap and begin to prepare for the charge, and the cardinal, who was standing silently, also receives a spear from the priest behind him.
“I’m nervous because it’s been a long time since I’ve had a real fight.”
Amidst the arguing words, the corner of the cardinal’s mouth rises as he begins to scratch the floor as if he had become a horse himself.
and.
“—Death to the evil spirits.”
“““Death!!”””
At the same time as the cardinal stomped his foot———! A sound resounded and golden waves shook around the knights.
The golden light that pervades the whole knights as if light were falling down.
──! ──! ──! ──! ──! ──! ──! ──! ──!
The knights formed a single spear and started running towards Typhon, leaving behind a golden afterimage.
Venezia and the mercenary formations wake up to the appearance of the knights running out shaking the earth.
“If the knights break through the formation, we will break through there together! Everyone get ready!”
Luka, who finished a simple first aid, stood up from his seat using his sword as a staff, and gave a hasty command to the raid members who were still able to move.
This situation is the best situation to overturn the charter.
– Bugs, which are nothing more than creatures of the gods, struggle in pairs.
Typhon turns around and tries to raise his hand when he sees the raid member coming from the direction where there are no snakes.
“Let’s check how strong the evil spirit is.”
Typhon’s body shook greatly at the cardinal’s lance charge, which ran faster than horses.
-Khahahahaha! That’s fun! You’re giving me this much pain!!
Even so, he spits out a laugh that sounds like thunder.
Since the opponent was the opponent, he attacked with all his might from the start, but he only shook his head for a moment and regained his balance.
However, that momentary gap soon turned into an opportunity.
────Kagagakak!!
The knights, who gained full acceleration, clashed with the snakes as they were.
Horses clad in divine power and serpents that were crushed and crushed by lances and turned into fragments and scattered through the air.
Even in a landscape that was nothing short of a one-sided massacre, they did not slow down and did not lower their spears until the end, and tried to accelerate further and rush towards Typhon.
That is until he starts moving in earnest.
-Huh!
The moment he stamped his foot, which had been left still, a gigantic shaking of a different level from the one caused by the knights struck the surroundings.
No other force was applied. It was just a phenomenon made up of pure mass.
It’s a look that fits the word monster in mythology.
The horses running ahead of this lose their balance or start to get excited, making it impossible to charge the lance.
“Everyone, hippos! Slaughter the enemies!”
However, these are knights whose business is combat.
As soon as he judged that the horses were not listening, he immediately threw a spear, pulled out the swords at his waist, and charged at the enemy.
“Michaela! Join me!”
“yes. Cardinal degradation!”
The cardinal runs along the road opened by the knights, and Michaela follows him.
As if the movements of the two matched, they ran at exactly the same speed and headed for Typhon.
“Do you remember the ‘shepherd’ you learned at the training center? I’ll take care of the sheep. Michaela, you take charge of the shepherd.”
“yes!”
The movements of the two begin to change just with that conversation.
Seeing Michaela and the cardinal approaching him, several feet move and try to block their approach.
In response, the cardinal steps forward and lures Typhon’s leg.
“ha ha ha! Moving like this reminds me of my active career and it’s fun!”
He avoided all attacks with flexible movements that could not be seen as an elderly man, and began to provoke him by continuing to wield his spear.
At this, Typhon’s gaze was driven to that direction.
Because of being connected to the floor, Michaela, who had succeeded in climbing on the chain that was stretched taut, ran straight to the upper body of the guy and began to recite prayers.
click-
The rosary in her hand turns.
“Sancte Michæl Archangele, defende nos in prælio.”
(Saint Michael the Archangel.)
A pure white light dwells on her gauntlet, which was almost broken.
click-
“contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto præsidium.”
(Protect us in the fight.)
The pure white light that started from the gauntlet gradually spread and covered her shoulders.
click-
“mperet illi Deus supplices deprecamur:.”
(Be our refuge against the malice and wiles of the devil.)
The light that completely covers the shoulders now begins to cover the body and head.
click-
And the armor that completely covered her entire body emitted a brilliant light, making even Typhon frown.
– Mortal. What the hell did you bring!
“Armed by the Holy Spirit. Joanna. This is the armor worn by the saintess of Arc in the past.”
And it was also an object that was strictly kept as a national treasure and holy relic in the Vatican.
-stupid! Yes, a mortal artifact. In the end, everything you wear will perish.
Declaring in a very arrogant voice, Typhon is about to reach out to Michaela, who is floating in front of him.
but.
Jinglang!
-What is this——!!
“ha ha ha! Even the power of a giant is no big deal!”
The cardinal, who ran to the place where the guy’s arm and the floor were connected before he knew it, pulled the chain, and the hand that was facing Michaela was sealed as it was.
That short break was enough. Michaela climbed onto the guy’s shoulders before he knew it.
click-
“tuque, Princeps militiæ cælestis.”
(Leader of the Heavenly Armies,)
The joints of the fingers move and form a fist.
click-
“Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos.”
(to destroy souls)
The elbows are pulled back, preparing to apply proper force.
click-
“qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo.”
(Satan and all evil spirits who roam the world)
Enormous divine power that continuously leaked out from the cracks in the armor with a sound like sparks rising.
click-
“divina virtute, in infernum detrude.”
(By the power of God, drop it into hell.)
The ‘Saint Michael the Archangel Prayer’ finally completed from her mouth.
Now, only the end of this chant remains.
Michaela waved her fist at the giant in front of her eyes and recited the last sentence to mark the point of prayer.
“Amen.”
(amen.)
───Quaang!!
A roar incomparable to any sound that has ever been heard shakes the temple.
and.
– aaagh!
It was the moment when Typhon’s neck, which had not budged under any circumstances, was completely turned.
“Vade in pace.”
─────!!
At the same time as the shock, the pushed divine power explodes and shakes the inside of the guy.
His huge body, which seemed to stand firm forever, gradually collapsed.
And Michaela, who was looking at it, began to fall to the ground, unable to control her fading spirit.
Is it a reaction using a holy relic? My whole body doesn’t move at all.
‘I shouldn’t lose my mind here… … !’
She starts counting decimals to somehow keep her spirits up.
“One… … 2… … 3… … 5… … 7… … 11… … !”
But that didn’t change the situation.
The battle is still going on, and even if you rush to help her, the distance is too far.
At this rate, it is clear that her body will be crushed by gravity and will suffer great damage.
at that time.
“What are you counting on? girl.”
Michaela, feeling the sensation of someone receiving her, struggled to open her eyes.
first time seeing a man.
he took his body
A person who wasn’t even in Reid’s party, and who couldn’t even be in the Holy Knights, suddenly appeared.
but.
‘Who the hell are you talking about?’
There was some kind of sympathy in his voice.
Perhaps that is why Michaela answered his question casually.
“… … To stay awake, I was counting decimals.”
“hmm? decimal?”
But why is he making a strange voice?
“… … I’m sorry. 1 is not considered a prime number.”
“That, that… … what… … I’m sure I didn’t get that kind of education at the Vatican– I’m sorry!”
Took. The feeling of landing along with the sound of that was transmitted to Michaela’s whole body.
He carefully sets her down in a safe place and stands up.
“That relic. You’d better not use too much. The runaway divine power only gnaws at the user’s lifespan. It’s not for nothing that Jeanne d’Arc was short-lived. Didn’t the Vatican tell you this?”
Then, at the voice of the man who spits out facts that he doesn’t know about, Michaela looks up at his back with difficulty.
“Remember. Knight of the Vatican. That no matter how much you learn and believe, it could all be false.”
“… … Who are you to deny my world?”
For her, everything she learned at the Vatican was the world and everything she knew.
It is inevitable to react to words that deny this.
However, when asked about his identity, the man laughed and said,
“You mean me?”
He puts his hands in his pockets and says.
“I too am a person who hears the call of the Lord and tries to express it with my own justice. In a distant foreign land, they called me like this.”
Magical Rogue.
He pulled a huge pink wand out of his pocket and whispered softly as he looked at Typhon, who was slowly raising his hands together.
“Lord. Please allow me to become a righteous Magical Log that takes the lives of my enemies today.”
