I Became a Hero Traveling With Saint Mesgaki - Chapter 158



Chapter 158 – Angel of Steel (2)

Chapter 156

“Kuh…!”

My whole body feels itchy. At the last moment, Abel almost pulled Levius and managed to dodge it.

The beams shot by the Steel Angel didn’t hit him directly, but it felt like his entire body was burned by the heat alone.

Levius was also in a state similar to Abel’s, frowning. Abel let go of Levius’ back and said.

“Hey, move.”

“…Even if you don’t talk like you’re proud, I know.”

Still, your attitude as a hero is not rotten.

Thought so, Abel got up from his seat with Levius, and saw the traces of the ray passing right next to him.

The ground was hollowed out by the tremendous heat, far exceeding Drake’s semi-breath, and the heat remained strong. Chiik, the sound of the streets could still be heard and smoke was rising.

Abel pondered for a moment how far the beam had reached, then lowered her head. Because she’s just too terrifying to even imagine. If you follow the road all the way behind them, there is a residential area.

“…f*ck.”

I couldn’t help but curse. Because Abel wanted to protect people. Because she couldn’t deal with it quickly, she also killed a lot of people.

Instead of her now motionless right arm, Abel held her holy sword firmly with her left arm, staring at the monster who had sent her away.

It was still flying in the sky again, whether it was the aftermath of a powerful attack, or the shock of thinking he might die.

But it was a monster that had been like that before and then fought back at once. So Levius caught his breath and asked Abel, who was carefully examining the monster.

“…A commoner.”

“Why?”

“Are you sure you can catch that monster?”

“…Now I don’t know. I’ll have to try bumping into it though.”

“I have no intention of fitting in for Gaekgi. It is better to give up Ephesus for a while and take another chance…”

“Then who protects the people in the meantime? I can’t go.”

“…It’s not perfect, what are you going to do with that body? That is arrogance and conceit, commoner!”

“Shut up, arrogance or arrogance…I will.”

Levius shouted at Abel’s stubbornness.

“Retreating is not running away. It is one of the most strategic tactics. Don’t you know that, you ignorant commoner! Elfriede was also close to being unable to fight. Neither you nor I are in a normal state. What are you planning to continue fighting in a situation like this!?”

“…I know that much. But it’s not about my pride. There’s a reason you can’t retreat.”

“What…?”

Abel said while trampling on the heat-stricken ground.

“People are screaming for help. People want us to win. Take down that monster, and cry out for their help. Then you win That is the role and mission of a hero that Estelle taught me.”

Abel looked back as he said that.

“So Estelle, help me win.”

“…Abel, with that body…”

“I can do it.”

A right arm that creaks from puncture wounds and burns and can’t move properly. He must have continued to suffer from the burns and soot from the attack earlier, but Abel looked at the mighty enemy with more fierce eyes than before.

At that attitude, Estelle couldn’t bear to stop him. He closed his eyes tightly and only helped Abel fight.

《 Sacred Chain 》

A chain of powerful sunlight entangled the monster’s body. At that moment, the monster that had stopped moving and was suffering forcibly grabbed the chain and began tearing it off.

In the process, there is a momentary gap. Abel seized the opportunity Estelle had created and lowered her holy sword.

“If you want to quit, get out. I won’t ask you to die here. I go.”

A white flash of light hit the monster once again. The part where Elfriede and Levius broke the upper part earlier. It was Abel who severely cut off the calf of the monster, and another large wound slowly took away his coolness from the cold old man.

“aaah!!! Humans, I’ll just kill you alive…!!!”

“…That was the goal after all.”

It became clear that this monster had come to capture Abel on the orders of the demon king. If so, there must be a ‘mother’ who gave the order to him.

‘…I’ll have to find out later.’

Abel slashed her calf and landed on the floor, moving closer to Estelle. And she asked her to heal her for a while.

However, when Estelle looked at Abel’s condition, who was holding her breath and asking for her treatment, she frowned.

“…Abel, this won’t work. Let’s step back this time.”

“No.”

“Abel! Do you want to see me use my strength again!?”

“I will make sure not to do that.”

Estel looked into Abel’s eyes at those words. Originally, she was trying to break her stubbornness by letting him know how sincere she was talking, but she instead forced Estelle to break her stubbornness.

“…Abel, can you really win?”

“Yes.”

From noble mtl dot com.

Those eyes filled with her desire for victory. She was unstoppably unbreakable. Estelle let out a deep sigh, drawing her divine power once more into her body, already tired from the continuous treatment.

Her mighty divine power eased Abel’s wounds and her pain. She had to be treated briefly, but in that brief treatment, the pain of her burns was all but gone.

“Haa…”

“I’m resting.”

Abel spoke kindly of her weary Estelle, and she ran back to the monster. Elfriede, who had been knocked down with internal injuries from her back, also stood up with her holy sword.

Then her holy sword, Luna, spoke.

[Elfriede, no! If you move now, the wound will widen!]

“…How can I stay still when my juniors fight like that?”

[You are the most hurt!!]

Luna’s opinion was close to the truth. She even yelled at Elfriede to lie down immediately after Estelle and Cynthia woke up.

However, Elfriede endured her pain and told Luna.

“Once. I will give Abel one chance and leave.”

[…You stubborn!!!]

I was confident. If Elfriede’s holy sword of trust had the ability, she could do it. The question was whether her body would move at the right timing.

“…I have to do it.”

When you need to move with your mental power, even if your body is not moving. Abel, her junior hero, goes so far as that, but as her senior, she couldn’t help but help.

And…

“…I can’t let Abel die.”

I couldn’t just leave him special and precious. Elfriede took a deep breath, then ran forward.

#

There has never been anything like this. Even when thousands of troops invaded to subdue him. Even when the knight commander and knights of the kingdom, which were called the top 10 on the continent at the time, came to subdue him.

Even when the hero and the saintess of the time tried to corner themselves with the subjugation army, she annihilated them without suffering any serious injuries.

But why now? Had his own forearm been cut off and had great wounds on his calf and side?

And then a big injury occurred, and emotions that I had lived without knowing for over 20 years were born.

“…aaa!!! I can’t admit it. You and the like…humans and the like awakened fear in me!?!!?”

I will kill you. I don’t need the great father’s name or anything anymore. By killing him, I will prove that I am superior… That I have never been afraid of him.

“Are you so pissed off that one forearm went off? Your eyes are back.”

“…!”

However, the vision of the old man who lost his composure narrowed infinitely. He lost track of Abel’s position behind him before he knew it.

Chack!!!

A large wing was cut off by the flickering flash of light, and a lot of blood poured out from the severed area.

“Ku…Kuaaa!!!”

As the blood spilled, the pain multiplied.

The seasoned monster, who had been dominating the three warriors until just a moment ago, howled at an unfamiliar pain, confused by new feelings, and completely lost his cool.

“…It is possible.”

Seeing that, Abel was convinced. That you can win That I could win without Estelle having to use her strength.

But then, the monster stretched out her free arm and grabbed Abel’s body.

“…Kuh!”

The response was delayed. Although she received treatment, Abel’s body was in disrepair and her physical abilities were noticeably diminished. Because of that, she was unable to react at the speed with which she would normally react and was captured.

But even the monster was not cold enough, so he acted very hastily. I didn’t even notice that someone was running behind me.

“You die here!! I can’t let a dangerous seed like you live…!”

The steel angel held Abel in his hand, opening her mouth and gathering her beam. Rays of heat gathered in front of Abel’s eyes, and Abel had no choice but to absorb the heat with her body.

“…Ugh… Ugh…!”

The heat was too hot for humans to take. The heat alone caused severe burns to the skin. Before long, a beam of light was fired from the monster’s mouth. As if it didn’t matter what happened to my hand holding Abel.

“This is not a complete madman…”

Abel spoke in a dejected voice, and the light beam was about to strike him. Between the light beam and Abel, a warrior with radiant blond hair intervened.

“…Elfriede!?”

“Just once, I’ll give you a chance. Because I believe in you.”

The holy sword of trust, Luna’s blade shone strongly. And Elfriede swung the shining holy sword towards the beam.

《Repost》

Kwaang!!!!

As if it had hit something hard and was canceled out, the light beam could not extend backwards with smoke and a roar. Seeing that, the steel angel opened his three different eyes.

Elfriede, who perfectly offset her monster’s powerful beam, dropped her arm and muttered.

“Abel, now…”

“…Elfriede!”

As if Elfriede had exhausted her energy, she fell from above, and Estelle, who saw it, quickly activated her vocal skills.

《 Sacred Chain 》

Just before Elfriede said goodbye to her floor, her sun-soaked chains grabbed her body. Seeing that, Abel was relieved for a moment, but there was still a problem.

Although the monster was a little confused by the smoke caused by the destruction of the light beam, there was no way for me to escape from this guy’s grip right away.

‘I can’t just blow away the opportunity Elfriede created for me…!’

Just as Abel was trying to somehow escape from the clutches of the monster, the monster came to her senses and looked at Abel again.

“…I don’t know what trick you did, but you won’t be lucky a second time. Your name line ends here.”

The monster’s mouth widened. Then, she moved her hand holding her Abel as if she were going to eat Abel as it was.

“…Yes, if you run away with this opportunity, you will be called a hero. Even commoners don’t run away, but it’s unsightly for aristocrats to run away first.”

“…!?”

Levius, who had been quiet for a while, was on top of the monster’s head. Dark red aura flowed from the Holy Sword of Joy that Levius held in his right hand.

“I will make good use of this opportunity to make my mark, commoner!!!”

Kwazik!!!

The holy sword of joy pierced the back of the monster’s head. Even though the steel upper was still covered, Levius suddenly inserted the Holy Sword.

Of course, because it was blocked by the monster’s upper skin, it couldn’t really inflict deep wounds on the skin. The holy sword only pierced a little of the skin, and on the contrary, it only fueled anger.

“This…Weak human…That bastard…!”

The monster struggled and dropped Levius, then opened its mouth and tried to swallow Levius, which had fallen from his head.

But something was strange. As the monster felt, his body slowed considerably. And suddenly, Levius’ figure disappeared, and he felt that something was being cut.

“……What did you do?”

The hand holding Abel. That hand was cut off. And the person who cut off the hand grabbed Abel, landed on the ground, and threw him roughly leaning against a tree.

“Ouch…”

“Relax, commoner. I had a hard time making my stage.”

“…Seriously…You asshole…”

Whirik, the daggers held in both hands turned lightly. And the red-haired warrior holding a pair of daggers looked at the angel in good condition like before the fight, no, much better than that.

“…What have you done to me, weak human…!”

“I just used the ability of the holy sword.”

The ability possessed by the holy sword of trust, the holy sword of joy where the ego has awakened, like

Repost, also has that ability.

However, because Levius had sealed his ego so as not to listen to the nonsense of the Holy Sword of Joy, he could not use his ability, but at this moment he released that power.

Life Consume. The ability of the holy sword of joy that takes away the life force of the opponent and replaces it with one’s own power.

It’s a pretty amazing ability, but it was a difficult ability to use because there was a big risk of having to insert the holy sword of joy in the form of a dagger into the opponent’s body.

But now the opportunity looks so perfect. The monster’s gaze was focused on Abel, and Elfriede countered the monster’s powerful blow.

Originally, I was going to run away. Retreat is definitely a type of strategy, and the situation was obviously a situation where there was nothing strange about thinking about retreat.

But Abel, seeing this commoner run without giving up… Even so, he, who had been a hero for five years, began to feel sorry for himself that he had tried to give up first.

[Ah…Really, I thought I met the owner well, but now I’m getting some fresh air after meeting an ambiguous guy.]

“Shut up, Cain. If you don’t listen, I’ll lock you up again.”

[Yeah.]

Cain. That was the name of the ego of the holy sword of joy.

[…But thanks to me, you’re full of energy right now, master?]

“…Yes, it’s very overflowing.”

With Life Consume, he took the life force of an Agareth-class floating monster, so now Levius was not overflowing with strength, and his physical abilities were much stronger than usual.

The Redeemed Hero, Levius Grospel, looked at the Iron Angel with a mischievous smile.

“I will use your strength well to build up my achievements.”
