    Chapter 142

    Episode 142

    The group jumped in head-on.

    Pfft!

    Blood spurted out.

    “Kwaaak!!”

    “What?! Stop it!!”

    Even if you have 3-star power, you are still just a regular soldier.

    In comparison, it’s like only the swinging power has become stronger.

    Of course, he couldn’t be the opponent of the group.

    The problem was numbers.

    Even if only the strength had increased, it could not be ignored since the number reached 200.

    As time goes by, it will become more and more difficult.

    “First, I will clear the way.”

    Evan stepped forward.

    Pfft!

    The brilliant Aura Blades emitted light, and the line of soldiers blocking their path collapsed.

    The group rushed in without missing a single moment, and soon arrived at the entrance to the garden.

    “It’s a barrier. Can you break through it?”

    “of course.”

    Chris put his hand on the barrier.

    The original purpose of this barrier was to separate the outside and the inside of the garden and gather the energy of the constellations inside, but the security technique itself was not outstanding.

    Chris quickly dismantled the barrier’s security and opened the way.

    “Stop it!!”

    The soldiers arrived late.

    Chris glanced at Jupienne.

    Those soldiers were going to be stopped by Jupien.

    “Can you do it?”

    “huh.”

    Jupienne answered briefly.

    A voice filled with the will to achieve.

    “Here, take this. It’s a summoning stone containing the 4th-grade demon beast, ‘Shell Turtle’.”

    As its name suggests, the shell turtle is slow-moving, but it possesses incredible physical defense.

    He was the perfect person to assist Jupien.

    “Marie, you too, go around and scream a little.”

    [Ohhoho, leave it to me.]

    Of course, Marie does not directly participate in the battle.

    But if she, the banshee, just flails around, the soldiers will lose their spirit.

    Chris had something else to offer.

    “Take this too.”

    It was a jewel filled with yo-yo energy.

    Jupien’s eyes widened as he realized the jewel’s true identity.

    “The Magic Stone of Illusion? How can I get this relic?”

    It was an artifact that assisted illusionism.

    “It was rolling around in a corner of the family treasure vault? I stole it secretly.”

    “…Good job. I’ll praise you.”

    Jupienne nodded as if she found it strange.

    For high-achieving knights or wizards, illusions are relatively less useful.

    However, since those soldiers only had stronger strength, they were bound to be vulnerable to illusions.

    A turtle shell that acts as a shield, a magic stone of transformation, and even Marie’s ghostly charm that will drain your soul.

    I think I can endure this much.

    Jupien spoke while looking straight ahead, holding a magic stone in one hand and a sword in the other.

    “Go quickly. Don’t die.”

    Chris smiled faintly.

    “Is that a concern?”

    “Shut up and get out of here. I’ll kick your ass when I’m dead.”

    “Yeah, you too, be careful.”

    Chris flew into the garden.

    Pfft!

    As I entered the barrier, the scenery completely changed.

    A splendid garden that seems to symbolize paradise.

    And the aura of moonlight floating in the air, typified.

    It was dreamily beautiful, but at the same time had an eerie, ominous feel to it.

    A creepy rumor was brewing in a small mansion in the middle of the garden.

    “I guess the Emerald Tablet is inside there.”

    “maybe.”

    The Pope will be in there too.

    Chris’s heart sank at the thought of facing his ‘father’.

    Because he was the one who had thrown his previous life, his childhood, into the abyss.

    I’m not saying I’ve ever been obsessed with revenge, but it would be a lie if my heart didn’t flutter.

    however.

    “Stop.”

    “!!”

    A group of people blocked the way.

    They were knights.

    There were quite a few.

    A number reaching 20 people.

    The level was also high.

    The weakest were at 3 stars, and nearly half were at 4 stars or higher.

    Above all, he who stands at the forefront.

    It was a familiar face.

    “I was going to come to you anyway, but you came here on your own two feet. I can’t thank you enough. I’ll tear you to pieces and kill you.”

    It was the 5-star Elder Knight Miek who had been defeated by Chris the other day!

    At that time, Miek had both of her legs cut off, but thanks to the power of the Emerald Tablet, they were healed and now they were all intact.

    That’s not all.

    ‘What a great feeling.’

    All the knights had a storm-like energy in them.

    It felt like it was amplified several levels beyond the original achievement.

    What’s worse is that they aren’t just as ignorant and powerful as the soldiers outside.

    Since they were originally high-level knights who handled mana like their own hands and feet, they would be much more skilled at handling amplified power.

    I felt an intense sense of intimidation from each and every one of the knights.

    The best was Miek, who was originally a 5-star knight.

    An eerie aura flashed from Miek’s hand.

    A vortex of intense power that was incomparable to the one I had when I dueled with Chris the other day.

    If we simply consider the size of the energy, it was on a level that was not lacking compared to a 6-star master class.

    “This is a blessing bestowed upon us by His Majesty the King. Be prepared. I will give you the most horrible death you can ever experience.”

    Miek’s eyes gleamed cruelly.

    Olivia, who had been behind, gritted her teeth and stepped forward.

    “Stop! Don’t you know what a terrible power that is?”

    Miek glanced at Olivia.

    “I know. But what does it matter?”

    “!!”

    “For a great cause, the sacrifice of others is inevitable. The princess is too naive, which is a problem.”

    It was the moment when Olivia clenched her teeth at the ridiculous barking noise.

    “There’s no need to talk nonsense. We’re all going to die anyway.”

    “what?”

    The knights, including Miek, looked dumbfounded at Chris’s words.

    Anyone could see that Chris was at a disadvantage right now.

    A desperate situation where the power between the two sides is incomparable.

    But Chris didn’t look scared at all.

    “Evan, you take care of that little punk, Miek. You don’t have to hurt him, just tie his hands and feet. Can you do that?”

    “I can, but what about the rest of them?”

    Even with Evan in charge of Miek, there are still close to twenty knights left.

    Embracing a fearsome aura thanks to the blessing of the Emerald Tablet.

    “I’ll take care of the rest. It won’t take long, so just hold on until then.”

    Everyone looked dumbfounded at that crazy story.

    “There’s no need to talk any further. Hit them all! Oh, don’t kill them. I’ll torture them slowly so that they pay for their wild behavior.”

    Miek’s eyes glowed cruelly.

    The three knights slowly approached Chris.

    It was a confident look in his eyes that showed he had no intention of losing to the amplified power.

    Then Chris said to Olivia.

    “Princess Olivia, what I was talking about.”

    “…Is it really okay to do it like this?”

    “Okay, trust me and do it.”

    Olivia hesitated for a moment before releasing her power.

    A ray of light shot out from behind Olivia, and a blaze of brilliant light burst forth.

    One of the abilities she possessed was the power of ‘Holy Fire.’

    The flames were directed straight at Chris.

    Chris’s body was instantly engulfed in flames of light.

    Everyone looked at the sight with expressions of incomprehension.

    “…What the hell are you doing? Did you want to commit suicide?”

    The Holy Fire is a buff power similar to the power of the Emerald Tablet used by the current King, but its effect is completely different.

    Amplifies the target’s sacred energy.

    Only Holy Knights and Holy Magicians can see the effects of the Holy Fire Power.

    ‘It would be like poison, especially to Mine?’

    Miek gave the order with a hollow laugh.

    “I’m sure he’s not dead, so bring him here! I’ll make him pay for running wild without knowing his place!”

    But at that time.

    Crunch.

    A creepy sound rang out.

    The bodies of the three knights approaching Chris suddenly stopped.

    No one understood what was happening.

    The knights’ bodies collapsed along with the fountain of blood.

    And the brilliance that emerges.

    “Oh, this is a secret.”

    A pillar of light rose from the broken holy sword.

    A pillar of intense light, incomparable to anything Miek had previously shown.

    Wow, out of 5 stars.

    It was an aura blade of the elder middle class.

    “Actually, I’m pretty good at manipulating the energy of light.”

    Chris said with a smirk.

    * * *

    A deathly silence descended upon the room.

    Everyone looked at Chris with wide eyes.

    “Wh, what nonsense is this? How can Mine use the energy of light, mana?”

    It wasn’t ordinary mana either.

    Mana was shining brightly.

    It was the ‘Mana of Radiance’ that was only permitted to warriors.

    More sublime than the ‘White Mana’ of the Holy Knight.

    Both Olivia and Evan looked incredulous.

    ‘Well, it’s okay if those two find out.’

    Evan is a servant. Olivia is under oath, so she can’t reveal the secret.

    “Ah, I’m a genius. I got bored with just handling magic, so I tried learning it. It wasn’t that hard, was it?”

    It wasn’t a lie.

    “Wh, what the hell is this…?!”

    “But do you have time to talk about it?”

    Chris spoke quietly.

    “I intend to kill you all.”

    “!!”

    That was the moment when those words ended.

    Pfft!

    Blood spurted out and another knight fell.

    Miek was so surprised that he shouted because it was so fast that it was hard to follow with his eyes.

    “Mom, hit everyone!!”

    But it was no match.

    Chris’s achievement is a whopping 5 stars. And it’s at the middle level.

    The gap between the upper, middle, and lower classes widened significantly from the Elder class onwards, so they were no match for Chris.

    Of course, these people have amplified their powers with the power of the Emerald Tablet, so they have powers that are incomparable to those of ordinary knights, but Chris also had his power amplified.

    “Joe, just hold on a little longer! The Holy Fire power consumes a lot of stamina and won’t last long! Our situation is different!”

    That was exactly right.

    The Emerald Tablet, which brings about a semi-permanent power boost, is a special case, but in the first place, such buff powers usually do not last long.

    In particular, the power of the Holy Fire brings about an explosive increase in power, but it tends to discharge quickly.

    “Ah. That’s something I’ve prepared. You didn’t forget that I’m a mine just because I handle light mana, did you?”

    This time Chris took out his magic sword, the Predator.

    Then he stabbed the knight in the neck who was writhing on the floor with his sword cut.

    Damn.

    With a creepy sound, the magic sword absorbed the knight’s life force.

    The absorbed life force was converted into magic and flowed into Chris’s outer core, and Chris converted that magic back into light mana through the vampiric ring.

    “With so many energy stores to absorb power from, there’s no reason for me to collapse from exhaustion in the middle of it, right?”

    The knights hesitated at the horrifying sight, and Miek gritted his teeth.

    “profit…!”

    Among the knights in this place, the only one who can stand up to Chris is the 5-star knight Miek.

    He tried to stop Chris, but Evan stopped him.

    “Profit, get out of the way!! Where did you get the chance!!”

    But Evan was not someone someone like Miek would dare to describe.

    Warrior of the future.

    Because even now, he was considered the strongest among the next generation of the famous swordsmanship family.

    Even though they were both at the same 5-star level, there was a huge difference in their swordsmanship skills.

    Although Miek had the upper hand in strength due to the power of the Emerald Tablet, he was unable to easily shake off Evan.

    Meanwhile, Chris’ sword mercilessly cut down the knights.

    Phaaaat!!
