Chapter 156 – Because that’s a saint~♡
Chapter 154
I’m sure. Nom said that he had come looking for a ‘hero’, and he saw Levius and said that he was not the hero he was looking for.
Then, of course, the answer came out. That guy was aiming for me and found out the hero’s location. The hero there was Levius.
“Levius, where did that monster attack you?”
“It’s Mephis.”
Where is the city of Mephis?
“This is a city southeast of Ephesus. It’s a place where you can reach it by riding a horse and riding leisurely for two days.”
Elfriede kindly explained to me. It was a fairly close distance, two days on horseback.
The monsters will be much faster than the horses, so how long will it take for the monsters to get from Mephis to this place, Ephesus…
“…Maybe already nearby.”
“What are you talking about?”
“He said he found a hero. But you said no Then where are the other warriors now?”
“…That’s what you mean. You got your head around a commoner subject pretty well.”
…Is it a compliment or a curse?
But how did the monster know Levius’ location? Did we just meet by chance? Or does he have something detectable?
I glanced at Alicia. Maybe this guy knows something.
“Levius, I’ll take him for now. Let’s go after her and talk about the rest of her.”
“…Are you still taking it with you?”
“I didn’t think he would fall. Can not help it.”
“Tsk, you carry a load.”
It’s a load. You’re saying something disrespectful to our alarms and detectors.
Anyway, using that excuse, I took Alicia and left her seat, and deliberately moved her steps slowly and asked Alicia.
“Hey Alicia.”
“Uh, uh! Why?”
“There is something I want to ask you.”
“No, tell me.”
“How did that monster find Levius’ location?”
Alicia seemed to think for a moment about my question. Then she gave me her opinion a little cautiously.
“Chu, it’s a guess, but I think it was made by chance and our ability.”
“What are you talking about?”
Don’t tell it in a riddle and explain it straight.
“First of all, it must have been a coincidence that the monster was near Mephis City with the man named Levius. However, it is our ability to accurately find the hero.”
“Ability.”
“Isn’t there a holy sword? A dangerous weapon carried by warriors, including you.”
“Can you feel the energy of the holy sword?”
“You are right, Abel. Basically, when we feel the energy of the holy sword, we feel unpleasant.”
“…There was such a thing. You can’t feel it being too far away, so it’s just a coincidence that Levius and that monster were near Mephis at the same time, right?”
“Yes.”
It’s true that coincidence and ability overlapped. If Levius had come from the other direction instead of Mephis, he wouldn’t have encountered the monster.
“…But Alicia, that monster.”
“Everyone, of course they are targeting you.”
“Isn’t that right?”
hahahaha, I don’t think this is the time to leisurely wait for the regular briefing session. What if a monster appears during the regular briefing session and turns Ephesus into a mess?
“Alicia, can’t you feel the energy of that monster?”
“It’s hard if you don’t show off on that side first.”
“Hmm.”
Then what should I do? I can’t abandon the regular report meeting and wait for the monster, Sewol-ah, Na-wol-ah…
“…Abel.”
Then Alicia called me with a meaningful voice. And I couldn’t help but be amazed to see Alicia’s eyes in her. As if she felt something, her pupils were shaking greatly.
“…Alicia, what’s wrong?”
“Come.”
“What?”
“That child is here…”
Kwaaang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With a roar, the entire palace rang. No, exactly…
“The ground is shaking…?”

Named monsters. When a specific “Name” Is attached to high-risk monsters, it is a general term for those monsters.
The fact that a specific name was attached to a high-risk monster that was originally classified as a grade meant that the monster had that characteristic.
Whether they are overwhelmingly strong among monsters within their ranks, or they have lived for a long time and caused a lot of damage to mankind.
“Hero…I know you are here.”
And this high-risk monster called the ‘Steel Angel’ was a monster that fell into both. Classified as Amon-class from the first judgment grade, it stayed on the hills of Ephesus and killed all the subjugation forces that came to subdue it without leaving a single one behind.
In the Kingdom of Diana, which could not allow such a monster to live in the royal capital, it was about 20,000 tens of thousands of subjugation forces poured in to catch this monster. Among them were so-called wizards, knights, and even warriors.
When even the subjugation party, including the hero and the saint, failed, Diana Kingdom gave up on subjugating this monster altogether. At least the monster didn’t come out of the hill. Since there was no way to deal with it, they chose uncomfortable coexistence.
At the same time, the judgment grade of this monster was raised in the Kingdom of Diana. It was classified as an ‘Agareth-class floating monster’ and given a name to emphasize its danger.
What kind of monsters are Agares-class monsters? It was a monster of a grade that would cause an emergency in the entire country just by appearing.
However, in the case of this steel angel, it disappeared for a while, and other than killing all the punitive forces it sent, it did not cause any significant damage, so there was no emergency for the entire country.
But not anymore. For some reason, the monster that had been hidden for a long time reappeared in Ephesus, and it was destroying the streets of Ephesus unlike before it was quiet.
“Sa, save me…!!!”
“Mom, Mom!”
“Kyaaa!”
The emergence of an unexpected disaster. It was a very harsh reality for the people living in the peaceful streets. The ground shakes with a single cloud of feet, and people are torn apart with one wild flap of wings.
Streets that had been friendly a while ago with the solicitation of vendors and the chatter of passers-by quickly turned into chaos.
“Evacuate the citizens! 1St Platoon, 2nd Platoon! Buy your time!!! You immediately go to the palace and report this fact!”
“Yes, Captain!”
The well-trained guards of Ephesus tried to act quickly, but they were limited in their ability to respond.
As if the two words “Catastrophe” Were not meaningless words, the guards were mercilessly torn apart by the monster’s sharp, gigantic claws.
“The hero…If he doesn’t come out, I’ll just kill everyone and find him…”
Meanwhile, at that time, Abel hurried back to his seat after telling Alicia to stay in her room.
“Abel, what kind of vibration is there! What the hell is going on…”
“…He’s here.”
“What!?”
“I’m sorry, Levius, but this is not the time to heal your comrades. I need to take Estelle.”
Levius narrowed his brow slightly and said.
“…The monster came? To this Ephesus?”
“Yes.”
“How can you be so sure?”
“If you don’t believe it, check it out with your own eyes. Is it time to question that when people are dying right now?”
“…No, yes. It’s not that I don’t believe what you say. If so, ask for something else. How do you plan to win?”
“What?”
Abel asked what he was talking about, and Leviu spoke in a fairly calm voice.
“Angel of Steel. Do you think I called that monster a monster for nothing? It is a floating type monster that has been judged as Agares. It is a ‘disaster’ that far surpasses Amon-class monsters.”
“…Agares class?”
“Didn’t you know that? This is why ignorant commoners…”
Agares-class. In that story, Elfriede recalled the majesty of the Agares-class knight-type monsters she had experienced before in her nest, and Abel recalled the Agares-class secondary monsters he had seen in the Apollo Kingdom.
“It’s okay. I once subdued an Agareth-class floating monster.”
“I know. But this monster is on a different level from the one you subjugated.”
“What are you talking about?”
Isn’t it the same Agareth-class floating monster? Levius clicked his tongue and explained to Abel who was thinking that way.
“It has been more than 20 years since the so-called angel of steel appeared. He has been active in the subject of monsters for over 20 years.”
“So that means he’s aged?”
“…That kind of reasoning is so new that it’s absurd. Even if your reasoning is so, then how much experience do you think the monster must have accumulated over the years?”
Monsters gain experience. Abel, who had never thought of such a thing, was slightly shocked.
“This is a monster that annihilated about 20,000 subjugation troops in Ephesus. Among them, there were warriors like us mixed in.”
Levius looked at Abel and said.
“He’s the one who’s killed even a warrior. If we think like the monsters we’ve dealt with so far, we’re the ones who will suffer. Judge soberly.”
The tone was still rude, but there was nothing wrong with Levius’ words. The opponent is clearly a colossal monster. Even if the three warriors here right now cling to it, they are strong at a level where they are not sure if they can win.
Obviously, if you think about it calmly, you had to tolerate the damage to the capital to some extent and cooperate with the army to seize the opportunity to subjugate it.
But Abel grabbed the handle of her holy sword and pulled it out in response to Levius’ words. And she kindled her will with her two red eyes.
“Save people. Whether it’s the weak or the strong, commoners or nobles… It’s our bravery to save innocent people dying.”
“…That’s an ideal theory.”
“It doesn’t matter if you think of it as an ideal theory. I go.”
Abel said that and opened the door.
I noticed Estelle, who was resting after curing Levius’ colleagues inside.
Abel’s heart fluttered at the sight of Estelle, who looked a bit tired from the look on her face, but he bit her lips as if to solidify her will.
Seeing Abel like that, Estelle deliberately relaxed her expression and asked him kindly.
“Abel, what’s going on outside?”
“…It’s a monster. The ‘angel of steel’ is here.”
“…Somehow, something didn’t feel right.”
Estelle got up from her seat and said to Celine, who was next to her.
“Sorry, Celine, take care of this. I will go with Abel.”
“Are you okay? You used a lot of her stamina…”
“It should be fine.”
She wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hand. It was sweat from pouring her holy power on Natalie and Sonia, who had deep wounds.
Nevertheless, Estelle smiled and smiled at her hero, who showed her determination to go and stop her demons with her entire body.
“Because that’s a saint~♡”

A steel angel (Steel Angel), a monster that turned Ephesus into a sea of fire in an instant. Fortunately, it was not a residential area, but a small commercial district with a small floating population.
Of course, countless lives died at the hands of monsters, and enormous financial damage was taking place. Ephesus and Diana kingdoms were suffering a huge blow.
The steel angel who was smashing the streets in the middle of the day found something and opened his mouth.
“Are they finally coming out… It was a hell of a wait.”
Abel, Elfriede, and Levius were rushing out of the palace with their own holy swords. Accompanying them were Estelle, Cynthia, and Astaria, who had just woken up from her injuries.
《 Euraria’s Grace 》
The blessings of the three goddesses dwelled in each warrior’s body. And the three warriors stood before a huge steel monster.
At that figure, the angel’s huge wings fluttered.
“Since you made me wait like this…I’ll take you right away.”
The wings moved slowly and greatly, and with a single flap of the wings, the angel’s figure disappeared. And in an instant, it appeared above Abel’s head.
And at that moment,
Suddenly!!!
A blow like a ray of light passed through the angel’s body. The upper, which was covered with something hard like steel, cracked and cracked.
“…You read it?”
“I can see it all, you freak.”
