    Episode 573

    Choaaaah!

    Felix swung his sword and shield to block the oncoming demons and tentacles.

    Behind him the citizens of Jupiter moved towards the gates in fear.

    The problem was that the road to the castle gate was quite long.

    ‘It’s impossible for me to protect all of them by myself. I’m not sure if I can get any help in the current situation.’

    Despite the bleak situation Felix moved as quickly as possible and swung his sword in an attempt to somehow prevent a tragedy but as expected he was unable to protect all the citizens.

    As he grew more and more exhausted by the thought that there was no clear solution the image of Zeke appeared in his mind.

    ‘If the lord had seen this he would have clicked his tongue.’

    Felix swung his sword faster and struck the demons with his shield remembering Zeke’s stern voice.

    Felix tried to hold on as long as he could but soon he reached his limit.

    Krrrrrrrr―

    The demons larger than before approached them.

    Felix shouted at the citizens.

    “Go quickly while I stop you! Hurry up!”

    He mustered his strength again to lift his shield and grasp his sword.

    Hersion was a weapon that consumed aura just by equipping it but it was impossible to fight against the demons who sprayed strong acid solutions with bare hands.

    Kaaaah!

    As Felix was chewing his teeth the demons rushed at him with a terrible roar.

    But then it happened.

    Pavababababak!

    Mercenaries and soldiers hiding among the citizens threw spears at the demons.

    They rushed in front of the demon holding a hastily made shield.

    “Damn you you knight of Drake! Stand back!”

    The mercenaries and soldiers who had been hiding to save their lives came forward on their own seeing Felix sacrifice his body for them.

    While they held back the demons Felix was able to catch his breath for a moment.

    He quickly drank the recovery potion and then swung his sword with aura towards the demons again.

    Quadddd!

    The problem was that the demons and tentacles kept coming without stopping.

    The surrounding soldiers and mercenaries gathered to help Felix block the attack but it wasn’t enough to stop them all.

    ‘Damn.’

    Felix who was observing the situation instantly gathered his energy and launched a powerful sword strike at the demons.

    Kwakwakwakwang!

    Felix shouted taking advantage of the momentary retreat of the demons.

    “Let’s get out of here quickly before more of them come!”

    “Damn it! Sir let’s go together!”

    “Go quickly while I block it! My comrades will be there as you approach the gate! Protect the citizens!”

    The mercenaries and soldiers took to Felix’s words with stern expressions and ran towards the gate holding their shields and protecting the citizens.

    That was when.

    Boom! Boom! Boom!

    A larger demon than the ones that had just rushed at him appeared and approached Felix.

    “Haa… Damn it’s never ending.”

    After Felix confirmed that the citizens had moved a certain distance away and were protected by soldiers and mercenaries he released Hersion and focused his energy on his sword.

    Kookookookookook!

    As the aura focused on his sword no sound around him could be heard.

    Felix felt as if he had become a sword.

    Soon he felt a demon approaching the area he had laid out.

    Kaaa …

    The demon was swinging its sharp claws at him.

    Felix took a step back avoiding the claws.

    Then he released all his strength and swung his sword.

    Choaaaah!

    The demon’s arm covered in a hard shell was cut off by Felix’s sword and fell to the ground.

    Kiaaaa …

    Felix was having a mystical experience where he could clearly see each and every drop of acidic solution coming out of the demon’s body but he wasn’t even aware of it.

    He dodged them all then took a step forward and swung his sword at the demon.

    Choaaa …

    A light swing of the sword cleanly cut through the demon’s sturdy armor and three arms were cut off in an instant.

    Krrrrrrrr―

    The demon stepped back and swung its massive tail at Felix.

    It was powerful enough to destroy not only the surrounding houses but also the castle walls in one fell swoop.

    But Felix held his sword in a calm posture and waited until the tail of the demon was about to touch him.

    And when the tail was within reach he slowly swung the sword from bottom to top.

    For Felix whose sword and body had become one cutting off the tail of the demon was nothing.

    Choaaa …

    The demon’s massive body was split perfectly in half from head to tail.

    thud!

    Felix suddenly came to his senses when he saw the fallen demon.

    Although Felix unconsciously reached the state of unification with the divine sword he was not aware of what he had done.

    Brrrrrr.

    Felix who had pushed himself to his limit no longer had the strength to hold his sword.

    It was when he returned to reality and was barely holding on while sticking his sword into the floor.

    Behind the dead demons smaller demons were seen approaching him.

    Felix smiled bitterly when he saw this.

    “You punks. Why do you keep chasing me?”

    He could not move even as the approaching demons threatened oozing acidic mucus.

    Despite his grumbling Felix shouted at the demons to attract their attention until the very end.

    “Kids! I’m here! Come and do your work!”

    With his scream the demons rushed towards Felix.

    Kaaaaaaah!

    The sharp claws of the demons were about to tear Felix’s body apart.

    Pah pah pah pah!

    Lightning strikes of light shot out in all directions.

    Keeeeeeeeek―

    The demons who were hit by the lightning of light instantly turned into charcoal and fell to the ground.

    Felix stumbled and barely raised his head.

    ‘Seriously?’

    Suddenly someone placed a hand on his shoulder and a warm feeling flowed out from that hand and permeated his body.

    Felix’s tired body was rejuvenated.

    Felix who had barely regained the strength to move immediately turned back.

    “My lord!”

    Zigg holding Ascalon blasted lightning bolts of light in all directions at the rushing demons.

    Pfft pfft pfft pfft!

    In that one attack dozens of demons and tentacles that were quite a distance away were all reduced to ashes and disappeared.

    Only after he had cleared out some of the demons did Zeke turn his head towards Felix.

    “Felix has shed a layer of his own.”

    He continued patting Felix on the shoulder.

    “Congratulations on your promotion to Red Knight.”

    Felix who had achieved the state of unification of the divine sword had finally broken through the wall that led to his advancement to the Red Knight.

    ‘I’m the red knight…’

    Felix’s heart swelled with excitement as he felt like he was one step closer to the Zeke he had admired.

    But that was only for a moment. He soon shook his head as he looked at the ash-covered demons scattered around him.

    ‘If I train for another thousand years will I be able to follow my lord?’

    Zeke spoke to Felix not knowing whether he knew or not that his feelings were a little complicated.

    “I will block this side so Felix you send the citizens out of the castle. The Allied Forces will send reinforcements soon.”

    Felix who suddenly came to his senses nodded to Zeke’s words.

    “Understood my lord!”

    Zeke turned back to see Felix running towards the civilians.

    He raised his head and looked at the goch fixed on the tower.

    ‘The aura felt from the Watchman of the End is felt more clearly.’

    The energy in the pit continued to increase.

    As he was staring at Gochi with a serious expression the other demons approached Zeke.

    Kaaaaaaah!

    Zeke swung Ascalon and unleashed another bolt of light.

    Pfft pfft pfft!

    After Ramiel absorbed the Guardian the power of light became much stronger than before so the demons could not hold out and were turned to ashes and scattered.

    Zeke rose into the air lifting Ascalon up and sending blasts of light in all directions.

    The tentacles that were writhing along the wall were burned by Zig’s lightning and scattered into ash.

    As Zeke looked out over the city from the air he saw Bathory and the Knights of Dracula evacuating the citizens of Jupiter.

    He fired another lightning bolt towards them.

    Pfft pfft pfft!

    As the number of demons rapidly decreased due to the successive attacks of Zeke Gochi who had been accumulating strength noticed his presence.

    A change has occurred among the demons that roam the city looking for prey.

    Its body fused with the surrounding tentacles and wings sprouted from its back.

    Choaaa …

    The demons spread their wings and flew into the sky flocking towards Zeke.

    Hundreds of demons surrounded Zig from the air closing in on him.

    Seeing this Zeke summoned Bucephalus.

    Bucephalus who had been summoned after a long time expressed his affection by rubbing his face against Zeke’s cheek.

    “Okay. Nice to meet you Bucephalus. Let’s play together after a long time.”

    He stroked the head climbed onto Bucephalus’ back and unleashed a bolt of light.

    Bucephalus’ horn and Zeke’s lightning reacted causing a huge lightning bolt to spread out in all directions.

    Phage ph …—

    Pure white lightning poured down towards the flying demons.

    Kaaaaaaah!

    The lightning split into dozens of lines and enveloped the demons’ bodies.

    The demons were unable to reach Zeke and were swept away by the lightning turning to ashes and scattering.

    Although the demons were overwhelmingly more numerous they were pushed back like fallen autumn leaves by Zig’s power.

    Zeke drove Bucephalus straight towards the cocoon fixed on the tower.

    ‘Finish it before the Doomsday Watchman shows up.’

    Since the Guardian of the End can act as a descendant of the thirteen zodiac signs if left to hatch another constellation may appear in the phenomenal world.

    If that continued it was only a matter of time before the entire planet Jupiter was blown away.

    Zeke took out Levatein held it up and made a gesture toward Kochi.

    Woof woof woof!

    The energy of chaos was concentrated on Zeke’s sword.

    Infinite Sword Special

    Chaos technology

    Soul-destroying beheading

    A technique combining the chaos learned through the battle with Ramiel with the Infinite Sword was displayed.

    A sword strike imbued with the power of chaos flew towards Gochi.

    Then as if trying to protect the kochi the tentacles that had been rooting around the tower began to move and gather together forming a hard shell.

    Kwakwakwakwakwakwa!

    The sword strikes of chaos and the shells made of tentacles collided sending out sword waves in all directions.

    Card ding ding!

    The tentacles that were hit by the sword as well as the hidden demons had their bodies torn apart from the inside.

    Zeke held Levatein and drew out his energy even stronger.

    Then the hard shell began to crack.

    Kugugugugugu!

    The power of chaos doggedly dug into the broken shell and more and more fine cracks were engraved into its surface.

    Zig’s eyes sparkled when he saw this and he took out a spear made of Shinsalseok from his inventory.

    Wooooow!

    The Shinsalseok vibrated slightly as if responding to the power of the constellations felt within the cocoon.

    Zig hurled a spear made of Shinsalseok with great force towards Gochi.

    Kwakwakakwakwa!

    The spear flew out with a ripping sound slamming right into the largest crack in the shell.

    Pfft pfft pfft!

    As the Shinsalseok spear struck the shell broke and the spear tip dug into the gap and embedded itself squarely in the cocoon hidden inside.

    At the same time the power of chaos that Zeke unleashed enveloped the spear and stirred the inside of the cocoon.

    Quadddddddddddd—

    A shockwave erupted from the window responding to the power of chaos.

    Woof woof woof woof!

    The waves shook the hull with strong vibrations.

    Then the surface of the gochi began to swell and become bumpy.

    When Zeke saw this he quickly stretched out his hand and spread his shadow.

    The shadows formed a curtain and enveloped the tower where the cocoon was fixed.

    At the same time Kochi exploded.

    Kwakwakwakwakwakwang!

    Zeke’s shadow curtain blocked the impact of the explosion preventing the Jupiter Castle from collapsing.

    But it was impossible to completely block the aftereffects of the shock.

    The tower that received the direct impact collapsed parts of the surrounding buildings collapsed and even the sturdy walls were cracked or broken.

    Zigg who had gathered his shadow sighed in relief at the sight of Jupiter Castle which still retained most of its original form.

    ‘Fortunately it seems like it was stopped before hatching.’

    The angel of the palace where Ramiel descended was incubated by Harvey West using fragments of an angel so it could hatch completely only after absorbing the homunculus.

    But there was no doubt that the constellations that Zeke had just destroyed were the real angels that had been planted in the phenomenal world.

    Zeke recalled the report he had heard from Boris.

    ‘It seems that Emperor Nero obtained the Angel’s Cocoon and tried to awaken it with black magic.’

    If it had been left as is it would have certainly caused great damage to Jupiter Castle and the entire southern part of the empire so it was very fortunate that it ended like this.

    Zeke believing the danger had been eliminated attempted to return to the surface to repair the broken Jupiter Castle.

    But then I felt an ominous feeling.

    ‘What is this…?’

    Kookookookookook!

    Something stirred at the very top of the broken tower.

    Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

    The rising black smoke gradually subsided revealing a figure writhing on the ground.

    It was a mysterious sight with two statues facing each other seemingly praying.

    However the lower part of the statue’s waist was not complete and black lumps of flesh were writhing around.

    The Doomsday Guardian who had not fully hatched emerged from the cocoon.
