Night of the Soulless Heathens – 371



#371. Call of the Throne 9

Azadin drew his bow twisted his hand to adjust the trajectory and fired Aurelia Dawn.

Aurelia Dawn flying smoothly like a javelin explodes in the air and becomes a fine blade of fire that strikes the Dwarf Guardsmen.

-Phew!

The gunpowder weapons carried by the guards exploded all at once.

“evil!”

“That’s ridiculous!”

Dwarf guardsmen who used gunpowder weapons originally wore fire-retardant amulets attached to their ammunition belts to prevent their spare ammunition from igniting.

However Azadin broke through their fireproof amulet and ignited the gunpowder.

The lightning arrows and magic stone explosions that Azadin initially fired were not simple electrical energy attacks but magical attacks aimed at destroying the flame-retardant amulet.

As the gunpowder exploded the heart-shaped blood fountain that had been created among the guards was also destroyed by the explosion.

“Now is the time!”

The blood vessels in the hallway were torn apart by an explosion revealing the Blood Spider and Niselda Zibek within.

Bernard who had Asajit’s eyes used blood magic to disguise himself as a blood vessel and hid.

Niselda and Zibek attacked the guards who were terrified by Aurelia Dunn’s flames and Bernard continued to create blood spiders to support them.

The guards were completely blocked by their activities and could not approach the throne.

“I see. So that’s why he’s called the King Slayer!”

But surprisingly the decapitated body of Manawidan rose.

He found his head on the floor and picked it up.

I was supposed to burn to death in Aurelia Dunn’s flames but somehow Ashajit’s blood put out the fire.

Not only that. Other dwarf vampires also did not die from Aurelia Dunn’s fire and some survived and extinguished the fire and recovered.

The gunpowder explosion damaged the fountain but did not completely destroy it.

The vampires washed their wounds with Ashajit’s blood and extinguished the fire on their bodies.

“That was an interesting trick Herald Clan. However you are originally a slave race that serves the true king. I am the true king so if you kneel before me I will forgive your current rudeness.”

Manawidan swung his warhammer at Azadin.

Manawidan who had already grown to be a giant had become a monster with a muscular mass that could even split an orc in two with his hands.

Moreover his warhammer is made entirely of Azuresteel and will shatter any weapon like a dried reed.

-Koosh!

Azadin dodged Manawidan’s hammer and dodged sideways. As Manawidan’s hammer struck the ground Ashajit’s blood vessels burst and blood spurted out everywhere.

“You didn’t come here relying only on this flimsy sword did you? Now surrender and hand over Ashajit’s eyes! Then I will give you the territories of Sandokar and Coxhal.”

“It’s gotten smaller? Didn’t you say you’d give me Visendo at first?

“Looking at your skills now I don’t think I need to give you Bissen. Your reputation has dropped within me.”

“Your evaluation should go up after you cut off my sword. Instead it went down? You really are a petty king.”

Azadin wore the Moonbow on his waist and instead combined the Qing Executioner’s and Grimthrown’s clubs to create a battle axe.

“Hoo. You have another Nether Divine Being? And it’s the Blue Executioner.”

Manawidan recognized Azadin’s weapon and smiled.

“You have a lot of good things. It would be quite enjoyable to have you as my subordinate.”

“Where on earth did you get that confidence… No no. Just die.”

Azadin grabbed the Qing executioner and stabbed him repeatedly.

Blue lights flash and repeatedly strike the Manawidan.

Manawidan tried to kick the spear away with his warhammer but failed allowing Azadin’s Blue Executioner to stab him with his pike.

Manawidan was wearing priceless Azuresteel plate armor so his armor was not penetrated.

However as it caved in the armor now took the form of biting into the flesh.

“Ugh?!”

Blood flows.

“You’re walking around with a body like that? Well that’s only true if you don’t have any skills.”

Azadin spun around and swung his sword at the Qing executioner.

He was hit by Manawidan’s wrist breaking his arm and denting his armor.

An enraged Manawidan brandished his warhammer and lunged at Azadin catching him in the act.

-The flowers birds wind and moon are beautiful and the sun is shining!

However when Azadin’s spell was activated Manawidan’s body rose to the ceiling and crashed into it.

And this time Azadin jumped up and crashed into the ceiling catching hold of the outer garment of the falling Manawidan’s armor.

-Kajas and Cheongilsong!

Azadin and Manawidan’s bodies spun in the air and then crashed to the ground with terrifying force.

Azadin struck the ground with Manawidan’s head bursting his skull and shattering his cervical vertebrae and spine.

It was an injury that could not be survived even if one was wearing Azuresteel armor.

however….

“Ah I understand. I will give you Bisendo. And that’s not all. I will make you a duke. Isn’t that surprising? Promising the title of duke to someone as lowly as the messenger clan? Even I think it’s too generous of an offer.”

With his skull cracked his brain leaking out his spine broken and his body unable to move Manawidan spouted nonsense.

“….”

Azadin was speechless. Rather than being angry or shocked by Manawidan’s nonsense he felt fear.

It was clear that this bizarre mutation had taken away his ability to think normally although it was also possible that he was born of noble birth and thus acted in an arrogant manner.

“I guess this is the only way to shut you up.”

Azadin sighed and headed towards Banreung’s throne.

“uh?!”

Jibek who was blocking the dwarf guards was momentarily surprised.

Azadin went to the throne of Banling and sat on it.

And at that moment a dazzling light enveloped the entire Kingdom of Banreung.

*********

The Celestial Fire Knights were on the verge of annihilation.

Because of the sudden influx of Ashajit’s followers from the rear the reserve force could not be operated and as a result the breakthrough tactic was also blocked.

As they were surrounded by enemies surging in from both sides and their breakthrough tactics were blocked the outstanding military power of each Celestial Knight lost its shine.

“This won’t work. We have to get the Celestials out alive!”

Triodana the advisor of Celestial Fire made an extreme choice when Celestial Fire was in danger of being annihilated by the continued onslaught of enemies.

“I will use the magic of the Tornado Blaster! Celestial! Take off your armor spread your wings and fly away!”

“yes?!”

“…Are you serious?”

The Celestial Knights were perplexed by Triodana’s orders.

Triodana’s orders were to let all the soldiers of the Celestial Fire Servants die and for the knights to flee.

Human Servants of the Celestial Fire Although human soldiers are elite troops they are easier to replenish than the Celestials so it was a reasonable choice.

But how can one call oneself a knight when one abandons his subordinates like that and how can one confidently spread one’s wings and roam around in broad daylight?

“Chief Karna! Say something!”

“….”

Karna remained silent at the remarks of his subordinates.

Originally Triodana and Karna were twins and Triodana was chosen to be a member of the Wisdom Order while Karna was chosen to be the leader of the Celestial Fire.

Triodana was supposed to do the dirty and dishonorable things that Karna could not do but these two are ultimately the children of the Northern Emperor. They are the vanguard for the Northern Emperor to manage the Rescue Knights as he wishes.

“Triodana. For my sake do such a dishonorable thing…”

“It’s not for you but for my father and more importantly for the unification of this Whibris. Don’t worry. I’ll send you away and stay behind to fight and die alongside the soldiers!”

“…”

Karna knew that Triodana was determined to risk his life so he could not carelessly oppose his choice.

“All… follow the will of Lord Triodana.”

“yes?”

“But I will stay here too.”

Karna stood beside Triodana without taking off his armor.

“Are you planning to do something stupid?”

“No. Triodana. If you do something like this the captain will have to risk his life too. If only Triodana is sacrificed the name of Celestial Fire will be tarnished!”

“….”

Triodana knew that Karna was truly determined and did not stop him.

But it was at that very moment that they made their solemn resolution.

-Woooosh!

Suddenly a warm white light completely different from anything seen before began to emanate from the ground.

-Ahhhhh.

Wasn’t the black shadow floating in the sky over the Kingdom of Banreung shaking and then being erased by that light?

And that’s not all.

“Kwaaaaak!”

The bodies of the vampire-turned dwarves burn.

Asajit’s followers and Wendigo’s followers surprisingly became translucent and disappeared without a trace as if light were erasing shadows.

“…uh?”

“…….”

“What what?”

Ashajit’s clan and Wendigo’s clan disappeared and the vampires were burned.

What remained were the Celestial Fire Knights the pureblood dwarves and their slave goblins.

“What the heck is this?!”

“Wow the light of the king’s flower?!”

Triodana and Karna looked at each other and came to the same conclusion.

It is the light of the king.

The power of the king who protected Hybris from the power of the Nether Gods suddenly gushed out.

“The light of the king’s flower?”

“The Light of the King!”

The Knights Templar were not people who relied on the teachings of the King’s Church but at this moment they were different. The Knights Templar who were on the verge of annihilation cheered without anyone saying anything first.

“Viva!”

“It is the light of the king’s flower!”

“Oh my god! Was this real? This!?”

While everyone was rejoicing Karna and Triodana were embarrassed.

‘That’s ridiculous. Who is it?’

‘Are you saying that there is another true king chosen for the throne besides our father? That is not right.’

For them it would have been better if Celestial Fire had been completely destroyed.

Who else but the Northern Emperor could possibly be such a powerful king?

“Okay. Celestial Fire! Charge! Let’s see who takes the throne!”

Sir Aramis a Celestial Knight who had taken over as leader of the assault force in place of the injured Izmilla immediately gave the signal to charge.

Karna was angry at Aramis for giving the signal to charge without permission but the leader of the assault force could order a charge without the commander’s permission depending on the situation on the field.

At Aramis’ signal the courageous Celestial Knights lost their vampire and Ashajite followers and began to charge towards the gaping hole in the Dwarf wall.

“If you value your life surrender! I won’t kill you!”

As Aramis declared the dwarves and slave goblins began to disintegrate without any resistance.

The dwarves also understood what was happening.

“Wow the light of the king’s flower!”

“Oh my God. What have we done?”

The dwarves were shocked to discover that they were beings created by the light of the King’s Fire and surrendered to Celestial Fire.

Thus Celestial Fire finally reached the King’s Hall without much resistance.

Before this there will be a true king chosen by the throne a being who has shed the light of true royalty!

Harsh times have come for Fimbulbert but now there is hope.

The true king chosen by the throne of Yaegas has appeared.
