    Episode 562

    “Poohahahahaha! Bring me more alcohol! The alcohol goes down naturally when there’s someone to chew on!”

    The loud laughter and harsh words of the Northerners echoed throughout the Allied positions.

    Helen and the Duke stuck out their tongues at the sight of the Northerners drinking and mocking tirelessly.

    The Duke looked at Helen and said.

    “I listened to what you said and told you to do it but I didn’t know you would work so hard and tirelessly.”

    Helen also nodded.

    “That’s right. Himonas’ performance is better than expected but Castro Pollock is holding up surprisingly well.”

    I thought they would be provoked right away but there was less reaction from Jupiter Castle than I expected.

    The Duke said clicking his tongue.

    “It would be nice if you could react quickly. Some nobles are starting to speak negatively about this provocation.”

    Even though they were enemies there were those who expressed their discontent saying that they were trampling on the honor of the noble aristocracy.

    Helen’s expression darkened when she heard those words.

    ‘If there is no response within this week we will make other plans….’

    But then it happened.

    Ding ding ding ding!

    The voice of the sentry accompanied by the loud sound of drums echoed throughout the camp.

    “The monster wave is coming!”

    The Duke chuckled and stood up from his seat.

    “The Commander-in-Chief was right. Castro ended up getting caught up in the provocation.”

    Helen nodded to the Duke’s words and took the Dragon Buster with her.

    “Now is the important time. Captain please take charge of the rear.”

    “Okay I understand. I wish you good luck.”

    The Duke left the barracks and headed straight for the Black Sword Knights’ camp where they were waiting.

    All of the Black Sword Knights including the Highlanders who had been dispatched were already in readiness.

    He shouted at the knights.

    “Okay! Let’s go. Let’s catch monsters!”

    It was the Black Sword Knights who had already been following Zeke and had gone through several waves of monsters.

    The Black Sword Knights gained momentum and quickly followed Duke towards the rear where the monster wave had formed.

    As they moved they saw the gate floating in the sky behind the enemy’s base.

    The demonic monsters that poured out of the gate were lining up and advancing towards the camp.

    Farrell quickly scanned the monsters and spoke to Duke.

    “Captain most of the monsters are B- and C-class.”

    The Black Sword Knights who had been continuously fighting against waves of monsters had organized their forces to deal with monsters more efficiently by ranking them on their own.

    Class A was large monsters B and C were medium-sized monsters and D and below were small monsters.

    Judging from the fact that the number of monsters was filled with medium-sized monsters without any extra-large S-class monsters or large A-class monsters it could be inferred that the troops were hastily prepared.

    Duke listened to Farrell’s words and divided his troops into groups.

    Clone Farrell Felix Reyna served as the leader of each group and other members of the Black Spirits served as vice-leaders to assist them.

    The leaders led their men and rushed towards the monsters.

    “Haaaaaaah!”

    Clone swung his mace which glowed white at the monsters that were rushing towards him.

    Kwakwakwakwang!

    Several monsters fell into that one room.

    Meanwhile Farrell and Felix commanded the other soldiers using classic tactics to keep the monsters from approaching the camp.

    “Save your arrows! Shoot when they’re within range! Soldiers support the palisade from below so it doesn’t collapse!”

    As the Black Sword Knights who had a lot of experience dealing with monsters took the lead in the battle the knights and soldiers of other families who had been nervous were also able to deal with the monsters with stability.

    And at one moment a single knight charged at high speed towards the side of the monster army.

    “Kill them all!”

    The Himonas knights who had been drinking and chatting had started to organize the display and sweep away the monsters.

    Among them Northern Grand Duchess Alicia swung her Nang’a sword which was as big as her body and blew away the monsters’ bodies like fallen leaves.

    Kwakwakwakwa!

    The black magicians at the rear were confused as they saw the Black Sword Knights and Himonas Knights fighting the monsters that were rushing in as if they had been waiting for it.

    ‘What is it?’

    Although Castro Pollock urgently requested a gate and summoned mainly medium-sized monsters even this was a scale that the average knights could not properly deal with.

    However since he was not at all flustered and was overwhelming the monsters the warlocks couldn’t help but feel more flustered.

    ‘Communication with headquarters was cut off and the Thermo gate was also in a sluggish state so we opened the gate for now but damn…’

    The gate at the Thermo Gate was temporarily closed to open the gate here so your forces were isolated.

    Especially in the case of the undead when the gate was closed they could not receive the magic of the demon world and were unable to maintain their strength.

    I was planning to release monsters in the rear to cause confusion then close the gate and turn my magic towards the gate of the Termo Gate again but my calculations were completely wrong.

    Then Alicia swung her sword and ran towards the gate.

    “It’s them! Aim for those wizards!”

    Alicia picked up the iron skewer that hung next to the horse.

    I threw it as a test to provoke Jupiter and it tasted pretty good so I brought a few back.

    She threw the skewer with all her might towards the altar where the wizards were.

    Kwakwakwakwa!

    The iron ball thrown by Alicia flew through the air at high speed and towards the altar.

    The aiming power was also improved compared to the first time so the iron ball fell accurately onto the altar.

    “Avoid the blood!”

    The wizards jumped down from the altar in surprise.

    Kwakwakwakwakwang!

    The altar was completely reduced to ashes by one iron ball thrown by Alicia.

    Alicia who was watching this smiled and shouted excitedly.

    “Did you see that? I hit you with one shot!”

    The Himonas Knights raised their shouts at Alicia’s accuracy and struck even harder.

    Duke who had been watching this from behind the main camp raised his spirits and looked at the situation on the battlefield.

    Then I noticed an ominous energy billowing in the air.

    ‘This is….’

    It was the appearance of the spirit of the upper-level demon that Zeke had previously warned about.

    Duke shouted to Zeros the commander of the Black Sword Knights’ magic unit who had been waiting in advance.

    “Zeros! Calculate the coordinates of where I will strike!”

    Duke leapt into the air unleashing his whirlwind.

    Then he slashed with his sword straight towards the place where the energy was surging.

    Kwakwakwakwa!

    A sword strike containing a strong gale flew towards the place where the upper-level demon was summoned.

    Hooooooooooooo!

    As the Duke’s sword strike was countered the summoned demons began to slowly reveal themselves.

    It was a bizarre-looking demon with a face that resembled a lion and a body that resembled a giant insect.

    However the power it emitted was no less than the momentum of the Black Knight.

    Just before all the upper-level demons were summoned Zeros and the magicians under him raised their staffs and completed their magic.

    Kiiiiiiiiing―

    With a sharp sound a magic circle made of white light appeared over the body of the upper-level demon.

    The moment the summoning was completed a magic circle was activated restraining the upper-level demon from moving.

    Pah pah pah pah!

    Every time the demon tried to move a white light would burst out from the magic circle.

    It was a high-level demon trap magic created by Arina a magician of light and Hades.

    When summoning a high-level demon the summoning time was relatively long so a black knight with excellent aura would specify the coordinates of the summoning point and then a wizard would set up a trap magic there in advance to block the movements of the summoned demon.

    After Zeke came up with the idea and Arina and Hades devised the magic circle Duke and Zeros also used it for the first time in actual combat and Duke’s judgment turned out to be perfectly correct.

    Kaaaaaaah!

    Duke raised his sword in the air as he watched the high-level demon screaming while unable to move due to a trap magic.

    “Just stay still!”

    Woof woof woof!

    The power of the wind gathered in the Duke’s sword.

    And at some point Duke’s body turned into a gust of wind.

    Choaaa …

    It was the moment when the ultimate skill of Duke Draker the Knight of the Storm who once shook the entire continent appeared on the continent again.

    Choaaa …

    The upper-level demon struck by Duke’s ultimate fell to the ground bleeding blue blood.

    Kwakwakwakwakwang!

    He was caught in a trap and defenseless when he was hit by the Black Knight’s ultimate attack but he was still alive.

    Keeeeeeek!

    And surprisingly as soon as the high-level demon raised its body it reached out its hands toward the monsters around it and started to eat them indiscriminately.

    Kkwadduk!

    The upper-level demon’s wounds from Duke healed very quickly as he ate monsters.

    So this time I caught a giant twin ogre and chewed it up in one bite to recover my stamina when a loud noise tore through the air behind me.

    Kkwuddudduk!

    The iron ball that Alicia threw hit the hard shell of the upper-level demon with perfect accuracy.

    Kiaaaaah!

    A high-level demon who was suddenly attacked while eating a monster screamed and rolled on the ground.

    At that moment Alicia jumped into the air raised her Nang’a Sword and rushed down towards the upper-level demon.

    “Haaaaaaah!”

    She swung her sword with the intent to cut the upper-level demon in two.

    Kkwadduk!

    And at the moment when the sword was about to touch the demon threw off its shell and escaped with only its main body dodging Alicia’s sword.

    Krrrrrrrr―

    The upper-level demons who had abandoned their insect-like bodies looked like ugly monsters with wrinkled skin.

    A high-level mine that had taken the form of a monster tried to convey its will through telepathy.

    ―…Humans…dare to enter the great demon world…

    The high-level demon tried to stammer something but Alicia wouldn’t wait for him.

    She ran straight to the high-level demon as if she wasn’t even curious and swung her Nang’a sword at him.

    Hooooooooooooo―

    In the past he would just push forward with force but after receiving swordsmanship instruction from the Sword King his movements became much more natural.

    Choaaa …

    She cut off the bastard’s leg in one go blocking the movements of the superior demon with flexible movements.

    thud!

    Even without its shell it was a superior demon twice the size of a human so it fell to the ground with a loud noise.

    The high-level demon who had lost his composure muttered something in the demon language but Alicia paid no attention to him and ran straight to cut off the demon’s head.

    Kkwadduk!

    The demon’s head was cut off by Alicia’s sword.

    But then something amazing happened.

    Kkudd …

    The blade of the Nang’a Sword opened wide like a wolf’s mouth and swallowed the head and body of the decapitated demon in one breath.

    “ok?”

    Alicia was also surprised and stopped for a moment because it was her first time seeing the Nang’Ageum in this state.

    Originally demons who had exhausted their power in the phenomenal world were summoned back and returned to the demon world.

    This was because the main body remained in the demon world.

    However the Nanga Sword which contained the power of the Wolf King ate the soul contained in the body of the summoned demon in one breath destroying its original body in the demon world.

    Woooo …

    The Nanga Sword which had eaten up the upper-level demons returned to its original form.

    Alicia didn’t know exactly what had happened but she narrowed her eyes as she felt the power of the Nang’A Sword more clearly than before.

    ‘In legend the Wolf King Fenrir was a wolf that ate monsters. Could it be that the monster was a demon?’

    A wolf becomes stronger the more monsters it eats. So this Nang’a Sword would become stronger the more it eats demons.

    Until now I had not been able to properly draw out the power of the Nanga Sword so I did not know that it had this function.

    Through training with the Sword King the sword and the mind became connected and the true power of the Nanga Sword was revealed.

    Alicia smiled as she learned of Nangagum’s new ability.

    “Thanks to Zeke Draker I learned something good.”

    The black magicians who were maintaining the gate were startled when even the high-level demons they had summoned were destroyed in an instant and they prepared to leave the battlefield.

    ‘They are freaking monsters.’

    A treaty between the Abyss and Jupiter was of no importance to them.

    It was at that moment that the warlocks opened the gate and were about to escape the battlefield.

    Pah pah pah pah!

    A strong current surged from the gate at that moment.

    With that the magic flowed back and the warlocks fell to the ground with blood pouring out of their mouths.

    “Keuh-euh-euh!”

    In the warlocks’ blurred vision they saw someone approaching.

    Tsk tsk tsk―

    A man in a Draker uniform walking out of a halo of light.

    The warlocks of the Abyss muttered the man’s name in fearful voices.

    “Ji Jik Dre…”

    Pfft pfft pfft!

    At that moment a strong lightning bolt of light swept through and all the warlocks were turned to ashes and scattered.

    The Knight of Salvation Zeke Draker appeared on the battlefield.
