The Second Coming of the Legendary Sword God Chapter 243

Episode 243. Cogwheel.

The death of the second prince, Vileist, the leader of the rebels, soon signaled the end of the coup, and their followers lost their will to fight and laid down their weapons as soon as they heard this news.

However, a major and unexpected problem arose in Verdin’s operation.

Although he was confident that Loki, whom he protected, would become the owner of the throne, no one expected that he would face death in this battle.

This applies not only to Verdin but also to the third prince, Proslov, who operated with him.

“Is there any way to save my brother?”

Verdin did not have an easy answer.

There is only one way to save him, who is currently in a state of death, and it is the ability to bring back those who have reached the brink of death, and it is one of the songs left behind by Joanna Arc.

It is powerful, but God’s curse falls on those who sing it. Therefore, it is one of the spirit legacies that Joanna Arc did not want others to know.

‘Not now.’

Because Theresia succeeded Cynthia for the final match.

Prosloff put his hands together as he looked at Loki surrounded by doctors.

But his prayers were too weak to reach heaven. It is said that even those who receive oracles receive God’s will only twice or three times a year, so how can a single knight communicate with him only when he wants to?

‘God.’

Even if I climbed to the top of the tower again, I wouldn’t have the power to listen to their wishes.

‘Then someone other than me will have to answer this.’

Not a knight who travels to seek strength like me, but a being who can receive everyone’s wishes and watch over them.

A knight rushed into Loki’s room. He approached Prosloff’s side, trying to figure out what was so urgent, and reported in a low voice.

“Those looking for Lord Verdin have arrived at the royal capital. “We came in a Legion carriage, with a total of four people, three human casualties and one apostle.”

“Yes, that’s what I called myself. They tell me to open the door because I have to go inside to help Sir Verdin… . “Because Loki told us never to build a path to the outside-”

Proslov jumped up from his seat and hit the knight in the chest with his fist.

With a dull sound, his armor was slightly dented and he fell backwards.

“Hurry and bring them here. “How can you treat a fellow hero who protected the country like that?”

Proslope turned his gaze and looked at me. Perhaps they are trying to confirm whether the people outside the castle are my colleagues.

I answered him by nodding slightly. After some time had passed, Rox, Cynthia, and Theresia, guided by the guards, arrived at the palace.

Of course, there was only one of them who could talk, Cynthia, who was only slightly injured.

She looked at me with bleary eyes.

“Have you lost?”

The people they faced were Albus’ subordinates, Numbers. Apostle Gregory and Rox were defeated by barely a modified human.

Even Cynthia, who knows how to use sacred spells, was with us.

So, that means Brunhild was also victimized by those guys. How many futures has Ordin set?

I gave her a recovery potion to restore her energy to a minimum and explained what had happened here.

Of course, we went to another room and were alone so that Proslov and the others could not hear.

“So if we don’t save Prince Loki, all our plans will be in vain?”

“Yes, and you are the only one who can save him.”

“… “That’s how it happened.”

Cynthia lowered her head deeply. She already understands what I want, and she also knows what will happen to her if I use her song.

We are fully aware of what Theresia went through in the past when she used the Horde’s song.

“Okay, I’ll try.”

Cynthia did not reject her sacrifice. And I admired her noble choice.

The person in front of me now is not just a knight, but someone who pursues a sacred path that can save this world.

Instead of saying ‘thank you,’ I showed my respect to her by making the sign of the cross on my chest.

He then walked to Loki’s room and immediately started singing.

My plan wasn’t just to save him. Another person currently trapped in an ancient glacier created by Brunhild.

Saint Maria Theresa, who taught Cynthia the song of the Horde, I used the spell I learned from Brunhild to get her out of the ice.

I immediately asked Cynthia to sing.

“Even if something wrong happens to your body like Theresia, I will somehow get you back, so don’t worry.”

These weren’t just words to reassure her. Because I know how to get Cynthia back to her ex no matter what she goes through.

She smiled brightly and nodded briefly, then took a deep breath.

“Then let me begin.”

As soon as Cynthia opened her mouth, a soft voice filled the room.

I wanted to open the window and heal everyone nearby, but I didn’t know how much pain Cynthia would suffer if I did that.

‘These two are the best right now.’

No more sacrifices are necessary.

It is natural in this world that the weak are killed by the strong. I don’t know what kind of day I will face in the future.

The soft song, as if leaves tickling your ears, continued, and then Cynthia’s voice reached its peak and resonated widely like the sound of the main bell in the square.

Slurp, slurp, slurp.

Loki started to move.

Not only that, Theresia, who had lost consciousness, also wriggled her whole body.

Because if Loki survives, we can go to the top of the tower right now.

I waited for Cynthia to finish singing, and as soon as she fell unconscious, I whispered a small spell.

“Glacial filler.”

An ancient spell learned from Brunhild.

It is a secret that traps others in a glacier so hard that it does not receive any interference from the outside.

‘Cynthia, just wait a moment.’

I will find a way to lift the curse on my song and get it out of there.

Albus’ subordinates, Number One and Number Two, who succeeded in entering the front of the palace, hid themselves among the citizens and assessed the situation.

It was clearly supposed to be a meeting here with the original army of Ancient Chimera, but how could it be that the agreed upon location is filled with only imperial soldiers who look full of determination?

Moreover, the war seemed to have ended before they arrived, so the city was already stained with blood, and only cleaners could be seen around to erase the traces.

“I guess we’re late.”

Number One spoke through gritted teeth.

Number Two scratched his head and answered.

“I can’t help it. Still, the captain and I did our best. You came here right after the witch hunt was successful, right? Ordin himself saw our actions.”

“That’s true, but-”

“Okay, anyway, we can’t do anything on our own without the Ancient Chimera, so let’s go back to the Legion. “Albus probably got out of here too.”

“Don’t judge hastily. Even if he is defeated, Albus is never one to abandon his allies.”

“That’s right, but an ally is someone who is standing in the same direction as me. The Ancient Chimeras just ended up walking together and looked in different directions, right? “Then it’s hard to see him as an ally, so you can throw him away.”

“Don’t be stubborn with strange logic.”

“It’s not stubbornness, it’s the truth.”

“… “I should have come alone.”

Number One sighed and whispered as he walked away from the palace.

“If Albus’ plan has failed, we must return to the tower immediately.”

“It’s not bad. “Since we’ve come this far, it would be nice to grab a few toys.”

“no. There was an order never to touch a human in the royal capital. “Except for the Imperial forces against us.”

“Aren’t there women in the imperial army too? There is no law that says there must be only men. “Like that paladin bitch we played with in the Legion.”

“I didn’t come here to look for toys. “If it’s to satisfy your own self-interest, let’s move separately.”

“under… The captain, really, it’s a joke, but he doesn’t understand this. Why have you been so stiff since you became an apostle? “I guess it’s the place that makes people change.”

“It doesn’t matter how you look at it. However, in order to carry out Albus’ orders, I only want to move as planned.”

“Okay, okay. Let’s do it that way. under!”

Number Two grumbled, pulled down his hood and came up next to Number One.

So the two walked further and further away from the palace to escape the royal capital.

When they reached a deserted street, black smoke billowed from the ground and Albus appeared.

“… “It took a lot of hard work to get here.”

When he appeared, Number One and Number Two put their knees to the ground at the same time.

“See you, Albus.”

When Albus appeared, Numbers lowered his head and lowered his gaze. Perhaps they view their master, Albus, as a god-like being. Or he could be seen as thinking more highly than that.

Even if he met God, he wouldn’t have shown this much loyalty.

Albus smiled brightly at them, then came closer and placed his hands on their heads.

Up until this point, the two men who had the best numbers were unknown.

Because he didn’t even have a question about whether the person who appeared in front of him was real or not.

“Number one, number two.”

“Yes, Albus.”

With these words, black smoke spewed out from both of Albus’ hands and began to envelope Number One and Number Two’s bodies and engulf them.

They tried to break free from Albus’s grasp, but the force was so powerful that they could not offer any resistance.

Number One raised his head with all his might. And the face of the person he encountered made him fall into frustration.

He clearly had the face of Albus just a moment ago, but somehow this person turned into Baphomet.

Did this guy swallow Albus? Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the same appearance and energy.

Even if the external appearance can be imitated, it is impossible to imitate the internal energy that lies deep inside the body.

“Please, save me, Albus!”

Let Number Two roar with a screaming expression.

“That guy is not Albus, if you can move, kill him!!”

Number One opened his aura to change into the form of a dragon.

Their efforts turned into foam in an instant.

Before he could even use his powers, he was completely consumed by black smoke, so he was swallowed by Baphomet before he could even use his powers properly.

Pushushushu.

As the black smoke changed into a circular sphere, Number One and Two’s energy disappeared and their bodies disappeared.

“So far. Now all we have to do is deal with Ordin… .”

‘We will be able to take this world into the hands of our demons.’

Baphomet smiled wickedly and took a deep breath, then raised his head and looked up at the sky above the royal capital, watching the rising sun.

“Wait just a moment, Verdin.”

I will soon turn this continent into hell.
