Episode 678: The arriving light (2)
Catherine’s appearance attracted people’s attention from the beginning.
It was like that from the ship she came on.
While the others came on a warship that was almost dull gray, the ship Catherine came on was a very clean, pure white ship.
This was not an ordinary warship, but a ship owned by the Holy Kingdom of Bretus, and was a ship used by people of at least a cardinal or higher when going abroad.
Therefore, Catherine attracted the attention of soldiers even before she docked at the coastline.
By moving with the pure white sisters led by her, she was able to attract all the attention of the remaining people.
That was the time when everyone’s interest and expectations were at their peak.
Catherine used the sex method.
It was a golden flame so small that it could be called a candle.
Compared to the huge wall of thorny vines blocking the view, it was only the size of a firefly in front of a tsunami.
But the moment the flame touches the thorn vine wall.
Grumble!
It spread enormously and quickly covered the thorn vine wall with golden flames.
The soldiers who were disappointed when they first saw the size of the flames widened their eyes.
“What is this?”
“Am I looking at something wrong now?”
Thorn vine.
Those thorny vines that could not be completely removed even with gunpowder, bombs, steam golems, magic, and aura.
In an instant, it turned into ash and disappeared.
Some thorn vines tried to shake off the flames by shaking them roughly, while others burrowed into the ground and tried to extinguish the fire with dirt.
But Catherine’s flame was one in which such struggle itself did not work.
Even when it dug into the ground, the fire did not go out, but spread throughout the thorny vines and burned all the roots deep into the ground.
The improved species, which had developed resistance to fire and magic with the power of the World Tree, could not survive for even 10 seconds and was turned into powder and scattered.
The sight of the thorny vines struggling and then turning into powder and scattering was like watching demons burning and disappearing in hell.
It was an instant before the wall of thorny vines, which had been growing in real time until it filled my eyes, disappeared.
A wide-open view that is so vast.
Even the image of a saint clad in divine power stands at the center.
“Oh my god!”
“The Holy Virgin is with us!”
Cheers erupted from the barracks gathered on the coastline.
The scene was so intense that soldiers who normally had no religious beliefs reacted this way.
Either way, Catherine moved forward through the open road.
Catherine was followed by sisters wearing pure white clothes and tiaras, followed by soldiers.
In a more heated atmosphere.
That’s why people didn’t notice at all.
Sisters led by Catherine.
The number of sisters is one more than there should be.
‘It’s really hard to get caught.’
Liné was quietly amazed that no one had discovered her.
In a way, it was natural.
The priestly sisters surrounding Line were all wearing the same colored clothes.
Moreover, they even stuck close to each other as if they were maintaining formation.
As a result, when viewed from a distance, it only appeared as a white object.
The subtle glow they gave off also played a big role in blurring my vision.
That’s why no one noticed that a new person was caught between the sisters.
‘stuffy.’
Rine groaned internally at the feel of the clothes on her body and the tiara covering her eyes.
Line also changed her clothes like the priests.
It was quite an awkward experience for her, who usually only wore uniforms.
However, I could not express my dissatisfaction externally.
One way or another, if it weren’t for this method, she wouldn’t have been able to set foot on this battlefield.
Line wanted to check.
Is the scene you saw in your dream real?
And where did this power of his come from?
And above all.
‘Brother Heathcliff.’
Beyond that, I wonder what Ludger is trying to do.
Perhaps her greatest desire and motivation is to want to meet him and talk to him.
That’s why Line took risks and came here.
What should I say about the battlefield that led to this?
‘It’s such a strange place.’
The battlefields sometimes seen in the media were said to be very terrible, filled with blood and death.
It was even said that the larger the scale of the war, the more the spirit of death hovering over the battlefield increases proportionally.
But I didn’t feel that right now.
There were injured and dead people, but it was not that big for a temple where the entire military force of the continent gathered.
This was despite the fact that the sky was overcast with dark clouds and there was no wind at all.
Rather, Line felt strangely familiar with this weather.

I didn’t even know why. Why on earth do I feel this way? I didn’t even know that this might have something to do with dreams.
Liné’s eyes turned to the back of Catherine’s head.
She was wearing a tiara around her eyes, but it didn’t really interfere with her vision.
Maybe it was because of the judgment that was awakened.
In front of the power to see the future, just one tiara won’t be able to cover everything.
‘Sister Catherine. ‘What on earth do you want?’
Line wanted to ask Catherine, but had to hold back because of the stares around her.
Meanwhile, golden flames flashed again in front of Catherine.
After burning down all the thorns, she ignited another flame toward the flower field she reached next.
* * *
“What I see now is reality, right?”
Vierano nodded to Violetta’s question.
“yes. I guess so. “The thorn vine barrier strengthened by the power of the World Tree has completely disappeared into ash.”
At Vierano’s words, Violetta smoothed her eyelids, realizing that what she saw was reality.
“I wonder if this is possible.”
“It is only natural that a prominent person in the church has stepped forward.”
Vierano’s face turned serious after hearing the information the wind spirit had given him.
“A saint has appeared.”
“… … “She is a saint.”
“It is said that the priests and sisters were also there after that.”
“I thought it was just a superficial position because I had never stepped forward until now. “When I saw this scene, I realized it was my mistake.”
The flower garden was burning and disappearing.
Although the speed was slower than that of the thorn vines, the disappearance of the water scent that blocks regular infantry meant that the most important line of defense collapsed.
And Violetta had no intention of just watching it.
Hwioooo.
Her will was revealed.
The surrounding atmosphere shook as it was touched by the waves emanating from Violetta’s brain.
Light movements at first.
Then, it gradually became stronger and created a certain flow.
A wind that flows quickly and strongly.
It engulfed the flame burning the flower garden and pushed it outward.
Fuhwahwahwahwak!
The flame, which seemed like it would burn everything, was pushed outward and shook violently.
Thinking back to the time when all the thorn vines were burning, Violetta’s wind was truly powerful enough to stop the flames beyond common sense.
Conversely, the moment when the golden flames spreading outside the flower field were about to reach Catherine.
The flame was extinguished so easily with a single gesture from Catherine.
As if the candle had been blown out generously and lightly with the mouth.
The sight of the torch, which seemed to turn the entire world golden, fading away in an instant, seemed like a dream.
I felt as if what I had seen so far was an illusion or an illusion.
However, seeing that the flower field that Seonghwa had passed through was erased, it was not an illusion at all.
“hmm. “It seems like a formidable person has appeared.”
Catherine felt the wind blowing away the torch and realized that her opponent was not an ordinary person of skill.
Although it seems to be a simple method of consecration, it is actually a consecration used by a saint.
It was blown away by the wind.
Even if it were wind using magic, it would have been difficult, but the fact that it was possible means that this wind is different from ordinary magic.
“The power of will in the wind. In other words, it is safe to say that he is a color wizard.”
As soon as Catherine finished speaking, numerous slashes came from far away.
It is a blade that sharpens the wind and compresses it to its maximum limit, and each blade has excellent cutting power, enough to cut through steel and other objects like radishes.
Of course, it was useless in front of Catherine.
Sigh!
Wings made of light unfolded behind Catherine’s back.
The wings were like ordinary bird wings, but each feather was a dazzling golden color, and they flapped loudly once.
Too doo doo doo.
The golden feathers shot out with the flapping of the wings collided with the blades of the air and canceled each other out in the air.
No, rather, the power of the golden feather was stronger.
Some of the feathers broke through the blades of the air and flew beyond it, out of sight.
And of course, out of sight were Violetta and Vierano, hiding among the plants.
‘You captured this location accurately?’
Violetta widened her eyes in disbelief.
The wind he was dealing with was completely unnoticed by the other crusaders who had passed through the flower field so far.
No, it would be correct to say that I knew that there was a subject causing the wind, but I did not know where it was coming from.
The wind blows everywhere and somehow, a very free thing.
People were unable to pinpoint Violetta’s location just by turning the direction a few times.
But Catherine was different.
The distance must have been far, but he knew exactly where this was and flew his feathers.
It was Vierano Dentis who stepped in to replace Violetta, who was slow to respond to the unexpected situation.
Vierano, whose hands were covered in white energy thanks to the power of the wind spirit, punched at the feather.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
A fist moving with an afterimage as if firing a machine gun.
Every time the fist touched, the golden feather exploded with dazzling light and decorated the air.
Vierano knocked away the last feather and took a few steps back.
“Ugh!”
“Mr. Vierano!”
“Do not worry. “It’s just a little scratch.”
Vierano’s fist was full of small wounds.
Although Vierano looked delicate, the fact that his hand, which had been trained for a long time, was injured meant that the power of the feather exceeded expectations.
“I think it will be a difficult fight. “How about you step away from here for now?”
“If we leave, who will protect the flower garden?”
“Sometimes you have to step down and not follow through.”
“Maybe so. But I don’t want to do that.”
Vierano sighed, feeling the strong will in Violetta’s voice.
He didn’t know that if this area was blocked, all the soldiers waiting from beyond would come flocking in.
In some ways, it was like a strategic point that had to be defended.
“… … “Is there a way?”
I didn’t think he would listen even if I tried to stop him with words, but I felt a strange confidence in Violetta’s voice.
I am confident that I can somehow stop the saint.
“Of course there is a way. “For me, an inexperienced person, to become a more proper wizard.”
An empty wizard who is nothing more than an imitation.
Violetta thought that she had to go beyond imitation and become ‘real’.
“Then an irreparable disaster may occur. “If you make a mistake, you could die.”
“I know that too. But what does that mean?”
Vierano was speechless at Violetta’s question.
Even though I didn’t want to realize it, I realized through my long experience that I wasn’t bragging but that I was speaking from the heart.
“… … okay. “I meant it.”
“I was always sincere.”
“… … All right. If so, let me help too.”
“I wouldn’t mind if you just walked away.”
“My colleagues who have fought with me until now say they won’t give up, so I can’t back down. “Even though he looks like this, he’s an adult.”
Vierano’s smile as he said that was like that of a kind grandfather looking at his granddaughter.
Violetta smiled at that and nodded.
“great. “Let’s go.”
The wind rose and Violetta’s body came to mind.
Vierano also followed her, wearing a wind spirit.
No more hiding and playing with the wind.
Since the opponent is the opponent, this side will have to do their best to match it.
Catherine said as she saw two people flying beyond the dark clouds.
“Lemria.”
“Yes, sister.”
“You can take charge of this place, right?”
“Sure.”
“However, since there are two on that side, it would be right for two on this side to step forward as well. Anisha.”
“Yes, sister.”
A priest named Anisha walked forward.
“Take care of those two together with Lemria.”
“all right. sister.”
“The rest goes right through. got it?”
The answer to that question was the wind blowing from afar.
“Who knows how to spend money as they please!”
Violetta’s wind, which revealed a little more sincerity, drew a whirlpool and targeted Catherine.
The whirlpool itself looked like a living snake.
At that moment, Priest Anisha stepped forward, clasped his hands and prayed.
Paaaaat!
A huge light burst out, and a huge golden knight over 30 meters tall appeared behind Anisha.
A golden knight holding a spear of light in one hand and a shield of light in the other.
The knight used his shield to block the whirlpool thrown by Violetta.
Meanwhile, Catherine moved first, leading other priests and Line.
Violetta tried to stop it, but Anisha wouldn’t let it happen.
A huge golden spear being thrown out.
Violetta, who barely avoided it, glared at Anisha.
A fight that happened naturally.
After seeing this, Vierano stared at another priest with a wooden mask on his face.
A priest from Lemria who came to Lederbelk.
“Hehe. “Could you please do it gently?”
Instead of answering, Vierano raised his fist and took a stance.
Lemria smiled at that sight, saying there was nothing she could do, and then wrapped her body in divine power.
Golden energy formed on both fists and took the form of gauntlets.
And Lemria also took a stance.
Like a boxer.
