Acquired the EX-class attribute ‘Transcendence Copy’ - Chapter 143



143 – Witch of the Cross

“The royal capital is in chaos.”

A woman dressed in an open robe with her shoulders exposed looked up at the sky of the royal capital. In the sky, two beings surrounded by dark energy are spraying dark magic towards the ground.

“Is that the devil?”

Tarich, the demon of destruction.

And Nagai, the Demon of Desire.

The intense energy emitted by the two demons has already far exceeded what humans can endure. With those two demons, it would be possible to reduce this city to ashes.

However, there are people who block the power of those two demons. They are the special priests of the Church of the Sun.

“Hmm. Compared to the top, the power below is weak like a candle.”

The devil’s power is truly mythical.

The power of humans against him is so shabby that it seems impossible to stand against the devil itself. But the result is not.

The black energy emitted by the devil is extinguished by the pure white power flowing from the priesthood. At first glance, this confrontation, which looks like a battle between a typhoon and a candlelight, created an unbelievably tight tension. The reason must be because of the spear that the green-eyed priest was holding.

“That’s the new spear.”

Shinchang – Longinus

A Noble Phantasm among Noble Phantasms said to have been forged and created by the sun god himself in order to destroy evil.

It was only because of that Noble Phantasm that the fight between humans and demons developed so tightly.

A human holding a holy spear counteracts the devil’s power, and the priests assist him. The quiet royal capital suddenly becomes a battlefield, and warriors from the city rush out.

“Um, is that a devil!?”

“The special priests of the Church of the Sun are stopping the demons!”

“Damn it! Everyone ready for battle! All Riddle Knights, prepare for battle!”

People gathered one by one, and the priesthood added strength. The source of the power contained in Longinus is unity. It is said to have a mysterious power to bring people’s hopes and wills together. The legend was true. As evidence of that, Longinus, with the green haired priest, radiated even brighter light and crossed the battlefield.

“Hmmm~! This must be a victory for the humans.”

The woman muttered that, humming her song. Whether the demons or the humans won, she didn’t care much about the fight. She was just doing her own thing. It’s a bit earlier than planned, but since Angra Mainyu came out like that first, they just had to ride on their backs.

“Now that the royal capital has become yo-yo-like, the royal capital must be busy as well, right?”

She averted her eyes from the raging battle and hurried her steps. Arriving at the royal castle in an instant, what caught her eyes were the guards who were on alert and looking around. With a bashful smile, she put all the guards to sleep.

“It’s a free pass~”

With leisurely steps, he enters the castle. There was no one to stop her movement. The place we reached was the underground of the royal castle. Her assassination of the king was possible if desired, but that was not what she had to do now.

“What? Where are the ‘Red’ and ‘Black’? We were supposed to meet here?”

Did she come too soon?

I thought I was taking my time, but today I arrived at the meeting place first, which is rare.

In front of her was a huge door wrapped in chains. As she was contemplating whether to go in first, a sharp voice tapped her ear.

“You are here.”

It is not the voice of ‘Red’ or ‘Black’. The woman narrowed her eyebrows and looked in the direction from which her voice came.

“What? Were there any passengers? You are….”

The person who aimed the sword at him was a woman who looked like the personification of a sword. She is a familiar face

Flora Chepes.

One of the only three sword masters in the royal capital. And beside it….

“Kalden and Roland Brossine. What? Are you going to have a sword master grooming here today?”

The only three sword masters in the capital have all gathered in one place.

“Senior Chepesch! The Prophet is so right! Waiting here, the enemy has arrived!”

“It’s not the organ guy’s prophecy, it’s the student John’s…. No, it’s done. Brossin, keep your mind straight. That guy is not normal.”

“I heard that the nihilist is a member of the group. Do you know anything about the author?”

“When I first heard it, I was surprised too. The nihilist’s executive, the white-clad attack leader, was the Witch of the Cross.”

“Ahahahaha! That nickname has been around for a long time.”

Witch of the Cross.

Before John Baker, he was the student with the highest score on the academy entrance exam.

“Ahahahaha! Professor Chepes! To meet the professor here! Destiny is so cruel.”

“……The Witch of the Cross, Jena Claw. How long has it been since you were expelled for mastering forbidden secret arts?”

“Well? I tend to blow away things from the past like spilling them in water.”

“Is that so? Unfortunately, that’s why I can’t. After you were expelled, you were always caught in the eye and no one could expell you.”

“Ha ha ha! Is that so?”

The situation with three sword masters in front of me.

However, Jena Claw, the white-clad attack leader of the nihilists and the witch of the cross, did not look frightened at all.

“Chepes Ball, Brosin Ball. The opponent has set foot in the kingdom’s most secret facility. This alone is sufficient grounds for punishment. Any further conversation is pointless.”

“……I understand. Calden Ball. I will punish you immediately.”

“A punishment? That’s fun-“

Before Jena could finish her words, Brosyn’s and Flora’s swords pierced her left and right sides, respectively.

I could definitely feel the skin on her fingertips. Broshin was confident of his victory with that sense. This is not a fantasy or anything. The sensations in his hands, which he had learned for decades, told him that the being in front of him had surely died.

“Once.”

However, defying the truth of this world that the dead do not speak, the voice of a woman who must have collapsed and disappeared was heard.

“This!”

Brochine felt a sense of danger and quickly pulled back. The same goes for Flora.

“That’s the power of a witch who touched witchcraft!”

The fragmented corpse of Jena floats to the surface. And she recalled a crucifix wrapped around a white rose vine behind him.

“Jena Claw. She has paranoidly mastered the forbidden necromancy since her academy days. She started with small animals and even used her academy classmates as research materials….”

Her original punishment for her was execution, not expulsion. However, she only announced that she had expelled students who were obsessed with necromancer outwardly for the sake of the academy’s image.

“The day before her execution was carried out, she was found dead in prison…. It was camouflage.”

The level of her necromantic arts she had mastered was already to the point of evading the eyes of her academy instructor. The next day, the instructors realized that her grave had been completely dug up, and that she had disguised herself as her body to avoid the executioner’s eyes.

A severed body is tied to a cross. As her blood soaks the white rose, the most beautiful red rose in the world blooms. And, the corpse wakes up again.

“Ninety-eight left.”

The witch of the cross said that with a smile.

From noble mtl dot com

Realizing that the meaning was her witch’s own life, Bro Shin put power into her hand holding her sword.

“Wicked Witch! Do you think it will be difficult for me to take your life ninety-eight times!?”

“Well? Is that up to you?”

“What!?”

“Hmm~! Surprise!”

When the witch snapped her fingers, the roses that bloomed on the cross fell all at once. At the same time, a piercing pain felt in Brosyn’s and Flora’s flanks.

“Quaaagh!”

“Cheer!”

The two sword masters, who had trained their tolerance for pain for a long time, couldn’t stand their screams. It was not a figurative expression, it was a real body-shattering pain.

“This, this… !”

“How was the pain I felt? Looking at his expression, he doesn’t seem to be very happy.”

Jena speaks with a relaxed expression.

From her words, Broshin could understand why she had revealed important information about her remaining life.

“Ninety-eight deaths. I can stand it, but will you…. Anyway, being a sword master is amazing. This guy and that guy got out the first time. The highest record is three, but will you guys be able to break it?”

She said that with a sadistic smile on her face.

Fall into a space where you can’t see the floor.

Angra Mainyu’s Phase 2 is set in Tartalos. This eternally falling space itself is Tartalos. Even if you have flying skills, you cannot prevent this fall. Our fall is not a phenomenon, but rather a concept that dominates this space.

Unlike other bosses whose phases pass only after gaining physical strength, Angra Mainyu’s phases pass after a certain period of time.

“My only understanding. We have no reason to fight like this. Suggest once again let’s hold hands with me Let’s end this world and start a new one.”

Ignore Angra Mainyu’s words and fire a knife shot. The dagger is eaten by a crack in the air. Is it an invincible defense pattern now?

In my head, I slowly think of the guy’s pattern. Defensive time is clear….

“I can’t understand the language. Are you saying you still don’t understand me?”

Thousands of blades began sprouting from the walls. The blade came up long with the momentum to skewer my body. Calmly, I drove the shadow chain into the opposite wall and moved my body. The center of the falling space is the safe zone.

“Awesome! It’s a movement that seems to know everything! I am more and more curious about the world you have experienced!”

“Did I not tell you!? In all the worlds I have seen, you have been defeated by me.”

“Ha ha ha ha! I’ve never experienced a world where I’m defeated! Whose world is the right one will be decided here!”

He shouted in a booming voice.
