Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 14

Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 14

Episode 14.

200 years ago. When the empire was driven out of the Holy Land and settled on this continent, the first thing it did was massacre the natives.

Nurous tribes and small nations living on the continent were oppressed in the na of enlightennt and missionary work.

This land of golden sand, where the current empire is located in the center of the continent, was territory usurped from the indigenous people.

The Great Tomb was the remains of the Grandel tribesn who resisted the empire to the end, buried alive.

The tomb was buried underground in an area equivalent to a village.

Aiden, who was heading to the 3rd basent floor, laughed.

Are souls trapped in the scorching heat and being punished by God? It sounded like bullshit. Because it was much cooler and more comfortable inside than outside.

It got to the point where I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to sit down for a few days, if only the unpleasant sound of prayer would disappear.

Aiden passed through the corridor and entered the tomb.

A coffin was placed in a large crypt, and it seed to be the king of the Grandel tribe.

When Iden opened the coffin, black smoke leaked out. Terrible Magi. It was the energy that ca from the stake and the spell that had been worked for the offering.

The king’s soul must have been tied up.

The king of the Grandel tribe was highly likely to have been a great warrior during his lifeti. This level of soul makes the demon that will appear more powerful.

This was one of the reasons why Tegain was asked to help God fall.

Aiden opened the cap of the glass bottle containing holy water.

A few drops were sprinkled on the king, who was as hard as stone, and his body turned into powder and slowly crumbled. In the end, it scattered like dust and there was nothing left.

The purity of Iden’s divine power could have been enough to break the shackles that bound his soul, but he had no choice but to use God’s Nakru.

If you use divine power, the Demon God Church will notice.

Aiden planned to check out a few more districts as he headed to the eting point.

This is because Marticoras had to be weakened as much as possible.

‘Let’s find a substitute first.’

Since the offering in the coffin was gone, sothing else had to be placed in its place.

The stake and magic must be maintained for Marticoras to appear. While I was looking for a replacent stone statue, I felt a presence approaching the tomb.

Now that I think about it, I realized that it doesn’t have to be a stone statue.

“I heard the leader of the Cromwell Church has changed.”

“Yes, I heard that too. But that’s so…”

Two demon cultists stopped when they saw Aiden standing there. Their eyes moved to the open coffin.

“what? “Why is it like that again?”

One person glanced at Aiden’s black priest’s robes.

Demonic religions confirm each other’s rank with the red lines on their sleeves.

Aiden has one line. It was a rank chosen to be seen as a newcor.

“Hey, why is that open?”

Aiden walked towards him without answering.

“What are you dumb? Answer…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he fixed the guy’s chin with his left hand, grabbed his head with his right hand, and crossed them.

Suddenly, the priest’s neck bone was broken.

Before the remaining guy even realized the situation, he extended his fist horizontally and crushed his face.

Aiden carried the two bodies and went straight to the coffin.

The two people shoved into the coffin were a sacrifice to replace the king.

The souls who died in the tombs stayed here for eternity, so it was as if they were still alive.

People seed to interpret this spell, cast by the Great Wizard of the Empire 200 years ago, as punishnt from God.

Iden pierced the two with a stake, which looked like a skewer.

I closed the coffin and went looking for a few more tombs.

*

Euron looked down with a trembling feeling.

The bottomless pit, with its mouth wide open, was waiting for Euron.

A single-wood bridge where Grandel’s warriors held their coming-of-age ceremony in the past. This was the location Euron moved to.

A gust of wind blowing from the black canyon shook the bridge. I didn’t know how much longer the rotten, crumbling tree would hold out.

Why is the transition point here without any luck? If it were like old tis, I would have complained like that, but not now.

Euron was lying face down and moving slowly.

“haha! Recruit, what ti would you like to co over? “Do you want to help you?”

Daryl, who had passed the coming-of-age ceremony a while ago, was waiting for Euron on the other side. The two transferred to the sa place.

Euron clenched his teeth.

‘I’d rather die than get help from a half-demon.’

Euron crawled his legs awkwardly. The strength I trained to lift Aiden’s holy armor was quite helpful.

“Why don’t you go there first?”

“Is that possible? Do you want to miss out on this fun attraction? That doesn’t make sense. cancer.”

Euron blushed and struggled. He was definitely slow, but he was moving forward slowly.

*

eting place on the 3rd floor underground. The temple to honor the warrior god was now just a ruin with no trace of its past.

Due to wear and tear over the years after being destroyed by the Empire, Grandel’s Sanctuary remained nothing but a desolate vacant lot.

“Ti is running out… Has sothing happened to everyone?”

Sistine looked around with nervous eyes.

Sistine and Priest Bandel. And Sein had already arrived at the eting point.

At the edge of the clearing, hiding in the rock and darkness, they watched the altar.

The children trapped in the iron bars outside the altar did not even scream, as if they had accepted their fate.

The ugly demons of the Demon God Church taunted and tapped the iron bars.

The devil, who looked like a naked old man, stuck out his genitals and giggled, and

the hybrid with his skin pressed to the floor blinked and looked into the cage.

Priest Bandel frowned.

“······Let’s wait a little longer. There’s no way Lord Iden was captured by them.”

“I’m sure your brothers will be safe too.”

Sistine took a deep breath and nodded.

At that ti, Daryl and Euron ca up behind the group.

“Hey everyone gathered here.”

“Has Lord Iden arrived yet?”

“Both of you, lower your voices.”

Sein put his index finger to his mouth.

“Look over there.”

A translucent purple curtain began to surround the altar.

Barrier. It was a signal signaling the beginning of the offering ceremony.

As the purple color beca darker, Sein’s face beca more and more shadowy. This is because it was a much higher level of magic than expected.

“Now wait a minute. It’s different from what I heard. “It might be difficult to do this…”

Sein imdiately drew a calculation formula on the floor. The purpose was not to lift the barrier, but to escape in case of an unexpected situation.

Jeon Lee-jin using scrolls.

Originally, Jeon Yi-jin was a high-ranking world that Sein could not handle, but if there was a scroll, it was a different story.

The performance was so clear that one piece could eat up a small town’s yearly budget.

“The Holy Knight needs to co quickly so I can at least challenge him… But first, I’ll prepare to retreat.”

The sounds of prayer began to increase. Demon cultists surrounding the altar cried out to their gods in a language they could not understand.

Accordingly, the demons began to convulse. Beings full of malice beca mad and danced and laughed.

Priest Bandel muttered the gospel softly. In order not to make the party imrsed in fear.

The altar belched out black smoke. The smoke beca shackles and captured the ghosts wandering around the tomb.

Bitter resentnt echoed everywhere. The ghosts were swallowed into the altar and began to howl.

I couldn’t afford to wait for Aiden any longer. Sistine shouted.

“three! “Can you do it?”

“I need so ti. But if Lord Iden does not co…”

“There is no need for that.”

It was Aiden’s voice that cut in from behind.

Everyone’s eyes turned to Aiden, who was walking slowly.

“Ah, Lord Iden!”

“Seo Paladin! You may not be able to lift the barrier before summoning…”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Aiden was calm.

“Bandel and Sein, protect your current positions. Euron and Sistine will cover them, and Daryl will follow . Do you understand?”

“understand!”

Euron alone answered loudly. The rest looked very embarrassed.

“If you don’t fulfill the Holy Knight’s barrier…”

“No, the summoning is already starting! Now retreat…”

Iden silently burst into laughter. Everyone was shocked and fell silent. The pure white brilliance instantly lted away the darkness that had been consuming the interior.

He poured cold water on the demons’ frenzy and drove away impatience from the companions.

Priest Bandel stiffened and stopped reading the Gospel.

“Keep reciting.”

The eyes of God staring into the darkness were burning brightly.

Sein seed to know why Elohimderk chose Aiden.

“I will ask again. Do you understand?”

“This understanding…”

“I will tear the barrier.”

As Aiden’s thighs swelled infinitely, cracks appeared in the ground. In an instant, he sped up and flew through the air.

Daryl frowned from the pain of his divine power, but followed behind Iden.

The believers were also taken aback by the unexpected appearance of the Holy Knight. However, the strange prayer continued to be recited without stopping the ritual.

Rather, it was good.

Iden roared and slaughtered the demons that blocked him.

“You bastards!”

He crushed the dwarf’s head with his iron sword and tore off the putrid flesh that was attacking him.

The seeker of destruction went into a fit of madness. From Tedrang’s Incubus to the half-demon Daryl. The instincts I had been holding back surged out uncontrollably.

Every ti the giant iron sword was rotated, black blood burst out like a fountain. Flesh and internal organs were scattered everywhere.

Daryl was extrely afraid of the paladin in front of him.

Because he didn’t know if that rciless sword would fly at him.

“Daryl! Prove your worth!”

I owe Sein a debt, so I plan to pay it back. But it wasn’t Daryl. Iden needed a reason to free him from the church. It was self-justification. Because I had to brainwash myself into believing that I needed Daryl to survive.

Daryl also wanted to live. He swallowed his resolve and launched the bido into the air.

Countless blades encroached on the air. It poured in like rain and ravaged the demons.

Sein’s freezing magic froze the surviving demons. Sistine and Euron cut down the charging hybrids.

Iden was approaching the barrier.

The halo fluctuated wildly. The built-up hypocrisy made a clear statent.

A barrier was set down with a blinding flash.

Blah blah blah! A crack appeared in the translucent mbrane.

Aiden viciously stuck his hand in and tore off the barrier.

It was a thod that Daryl had never heard of. I could not close my mouth at the sight of Aiden’s antics.

“Follow in.”

“Yes yes!”

The demon cultists did not stop the ritual even when Aiden approached.

Iden also did not kill them but walked slowly towards the altar.

Daryl couldn’t understand Iden’s behavior at all, but he just followed in silence. It just seed right to do what the paladin in front of was doing.

Aiden walked up the stairs and stood in the very center.

At Aiden’s feet, believers were reciting prayers.

Then, suddenly, the syllables beca intermittent, and the catalyst on the podium began to tremble.

Iden swung his iron sword at the right ti.

The heads of the believers rose into the air. Blood spurted from the cut side of the neck. Daryl threw a rain sword, killing the surviving remnants.

Aiden’s gaze turned to the catalyst. When the platform split in half, a deep abyss was staring at Iden.

Aiden poured the remaining holy water down there. A terrible roar echoed from the abyss.

Sothing terrible is creeping up. Daryl swallowed hard.

Iden looked directly at the red eye light that slowly appeared.

Iden smiled cruelly. The face of the demonic beast charging from the bottom of hell was distorted with anger.

The human face embedded in the giant face evoked a feeling of terrible disgust.

Aiden took the iron sword in return.

A violent wind rages from the abyss. When Marticoras finally appears, Iden strikes down his iron sword.

He stabbed the sword between his eyes, secured it, and flew up with the demonic beast.
