Episode 716: For the Last End (1)

‘This place.’

Ludger opened his eyes.

I could see the open sky. It was still dark and full of dark clouds, so I couldn’t see it, but it was definitely the sky.

‘This must have been a hollow made inside the fortress, why?’

The reason was simple.

This was because the entire upper part, including the cavity, evaporated as if flying away.

What on earth happened?

Ludger stood up, clutching his throbbing head.

A blurry memory came to mind, and the events that had happened moments ago appeared overlapping on my retina.

‘I thought for sure I killed Salesin.’

It was a natural result since they destroyed everything except Salesin’s right arm.

However, Salesin’s right arm suddenly moved and radiated light with great energy.

and.

‘Is it like this?’

Ludger looked around.

It was to find survivors. It was an explosion of that magnitude, so even if only the strongest people gathered there, there would have been deaths.

However, Ludger ended up witnessing an unexpected sight.

“What. “Has it happened now?”

Surna was standing still not far from the center of the explosion.

Surna’s mouth was full of smiles as she looked this way, but Ludger could tell.

“you… … “Did you use your body to block the explosion earlier?”

Just before Salesin’s right arm exploded with enormous power, Surna was the first to move.

Surna used all her strength to unleash defensive magic, protective swordsmanship, protective spells, and black magic one after another.

And then the explosion happened.

The explosion, which would have swept through the surrounding area and killed more than half of the population, was blocked by Surna and could not even demonstrate half of its original power.

Even that power was deflected towards the sky.

Even so, this level of destructive power.

But there was something more important than the joy of having survived and the surprise that Surna had saved him.

‘What about Salesin?’

At that time, a person’s shadow suddenly appeared behind Surna’s back.

“I’m so sick of it.”

Pow!

Surna’s body flew to the side with the sound of hitting something.

Ludger could only watch.

“How dare you hurt my body?”

Salesin was alive, not dead.

His body, which had only his right arm left, regenerated in an instant and returned to its original form.

He was naked because the lightning had blown off all his clothes.

Light appeared on Salesin’s naked body, and it turned back into the robes he had been wearing for the first time.

It was as if I had returned to the state I was in before the fight.

However, unlike before, Salesin’s expression was full of anger mixed with displeasure.

It had to be that way.

Who can feel good when they lose a big blow in a fight they thought they would definitely win?

Just as no one would feel good about being stung by an insect, Salesin was also irritated.

A deep hatred arose towards Ludger, who dared to put him in this situation.

It was his true self that he always hid behind his smiling mask.

“her.”

Ludger burst into laughter at the sight of Salesin like that.

It is said that lizards can regenerate their severed tails, but this is the first time in my life I have seen a case where a severed tail turns into a lizard.

“Smile? “It seems like he has no idea what his situation is right now.”

Salesin strode in front of Ludger.

“Did you think you could kill me with just that kind of magic? Don’t be mistaken. This body is nothing more than a vessel to show my form. “As long as it doesn’t hit my essence, I won’t die.”

“Even so, if you break the bowl, the inside will inevitably be affected.”

“That’s the story when there is only one vessel. Did you forget? I am a being who has been accumulating dishes for over a thousand years. “How many lives do you think I have over the years?”

“okay? “So, if I consume all of it, I can kill you.”

“Do you know why I said these words? “Because there is no possibility of that happening to you!”

Salesin kicked Ludger in the abdomen.

Ludger had to fly backwards and roll on the floor.

“Tsk.”

I felt the bitter taste of blood in the corner of my mouth.

The attack, which was inflicted while my body was still intact from the shock of the explosion, was more painful than I thought.

“Forget the idea that you will die gracefully. I’ll play with it as much as I can, then cut off your limbs, and then I’ll show you with my own eyes how this world is ruled by me. “Seeing that will bring you frustration and despair that you will experience for the rest of your life.”

Salesin approached Ludger again.

He raised his hand and punched Ludger.

Pow!

Ludger managed to block by crossing his arms, but he was unable to hold on due to his unstable body.

Ludger rolled back a few laps.

Both arms blocking the fist trembled. He could feel his bones cracking.

The divine power contained in Salesin’s fist was also a problem.

It clung to Ludger’s forearm and tried to burn his skin with his clothing, along with his shadow that still remained.

strong.

Even though he was hit squarely by a lightning bolt, Salesin was fine.

One of the dishes he had arranged was broken, but he compensated for the damage by replacing it with a new one.

In a way, it may not have been Salesin’s vessel that Ludger destroyed with the lightning bolt, but rather the mask of his shamelessly smiling face.

Ludger found that fact funny.

“Salesin. “You know what?”

“what?”

“It looks much better now than when we first met.”

“It’s time to die, so you only live with your mouth.”

Salesin growled and approached Ludger again.

Ludger could only watch from afar.

The guy who can move at supersonic speeds if he wants to, slowly approaches me as if he’s deliberately showing off.

I was planning on blatantly playing around with this.

‘Is this the end?’

No matter how much I racked my brain, I couldn’t think of a way to overcome this situation.

That was the moment I thought about it.

“It looks like I still haven’t gotten over that bad habit of stabbing with my hands.”

A woman’s voice echoed quietly around the area.

Salesin stopped.

There was something about the voice that stuck in my mind, like a clear bell ringing in the fog of dawn.

‘who?’

Ludger turned his head.

The cavity was nothing more than a carving out of Galaharad Fortress.

As a result, there were many uncollapsed passages like holes all over the cave.

On one side, a woman with ash gray hair appeared.

‘Rine?’

As soon as Ludger saw her, he thought of Line, but then shook his head.

‘no. no. ‘She just looks like Line, she’s not real.’

But it was a face I remembered.

To be exact, it was the face I saw when I looked into my past memories through the World Tree.

“Arcenis.”

Salesin called her name in a voice that did not hide his displeasure.

It seems as if they are trying to make Ludger’s speculation a reality.

“Have you opened your eyes?”

“You remember me. “For someone who has continued to inherit memories, strength, and spirit, I’m surprised that his mind is more intact than I thought.”

“Even if there is no excellent necromancer, it would be no problem to inherit my own soul.”

Salesin, or rather the old ghost wearing that mask, frowned.

“But it’s strange. You should definitely be sealed in the catacombs, so why are you still okay? “It wasn’t a seal that could be lifted just in the aftermath of a fight.”

Salesin’s gaze immediately turned to Surna, whom he had struck down.

“I was wondering where on earth you got injured, but I guess it was the devil’s doing.”

“Surna.”

Arkenis also looked at Surna.

Her eyes towards Surna looked very complicated.

Surna was originally a mortal enemy, but after blocking Salesin’s attack alone, it would not be surprising if she died immediately.

“So what’s going on here with the handsome saint? “If she had managed to break free from her seal and save her life, she should have run away right away.”

“Of course I came to stop you.”

Salesin laughed at those words.

“You’re stopping me? “That is even more absurd.”

Divine power burned throughout Salesin’s body.

“Do you still think that you are the powerful saint from 1,000 years ago? You have been robbed of your power, and its power has been diminished by the old seal. Your power has been fragmented over the years and used to create a fake saint. You’re not even at your peak strength and you’re going to fight me on a subject where I can’t even achieve 10% of that? “Have you developed a habit of repeating requests for death?”

“I won’t deny it. Compared to my prime, I only have the power to call it dregs. That alone would reach the realm of superhumans, but it’s no match for you.”

“You showed up to me even though you knew that well?”

“But you seem to have forgotten, I’m not the only one here.”

As if what Arkenis had said was not a lie, Catherine walked up from the darkness of the passage and stood next to him.

When Salesin saw her, his eyes widened.

“Me too. “You son of a bitch.”

Catherine held out her hand, and Arkenis took it.

The vast divine power in Catherine’s body was transferred to Arkenis.

The wind swirled around.

Originally, divine power was not something that could be transferred like this.

But Catherine’s power ultimately comes from the fragments of Arkenis.

It was as natural as water flowing from top to bottom for that power to find its original owner.

Archenis, who had received her power back from Catherine, gazed at Salesin with eyes that were more vivid than before.

“With this, I am equal to you.”

Arkenis’ appearance turned into light and disappeared.

It was said that it was moving fast enough to look like that.

Arkenis, who had approached Salesin, stretched out his fist.

Boom!

Salesin was hit with a fist and flew high into the sky.

Arkenis’ body turned into light and chased Salesin, and Salesin also took a stance in the air and faced Arkenis.

Countless lights flashed in the air and an impact exploded.

Crumbling!

The air trembled like lightning striking a dry sky, and the noise tore through my ears.

The space was distorted and then straightened repeatedly.

Such was the fight between beings that surpassed even superhumans.

“are you okay?”

Catherine urgently approached Ludger and helped him up.

“you… … “Why didn’t you go back?”

“Are you stupid? How do I get back from here! “There’s no way down.”

“With your strength, there’s more than enough to go around.”

Catherine said with a shy smile.

“It’s borrowed power. “I have to return it to its owner.”

“It’s better than that, right?”

“what?”

“It is said that the power was returned to Arkenis, but… … .”

Ludger swallowed his words.

Catherine smiled bitterly.

“You are so quick to notice. that’s right. I gave you my power back, but it’s not enough. There is a time limit for Arkenis to generate such power. “It’s because it was sealed for too long.”

“The fact that you went forward knowing that… … “It’s intentional to buy time.”

In the end, all Archenis could do was buy time, but essentially he could not defeat Salesin.

“Is there a way?”

“It was a bit confusing at first, but now a few things have just come to mind.”

I thought I could finish it with a lightning bolt, but that didn’t work, so I had to find a new way.

Ludger stood up with unsteady steps.

“are you okay? Your physical condition… … .”

“You don’t have to worry.”

Ludger gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb.

He quickly recovered from the internal wounds and wounds on his body using magical power and approached Surna with a slightly tired face.

“ah. I’m here?”

“How are you feeling?”

“It’s the worst. “Maybe there is only one last chance left for me.”

“If you could use that one time for a meaningful opportunity, would you do it?”

“haha. As expected, you have a hard time managing people. “If he becomes Chancellor of Seorn, he will probably be the most vicious Chancellor.”

“So can you do it or not?”

“I have to do it.”

There was no wavering in Surna’s voice.

It wasn’t that I could do it, it was that I had to do it.

“If someone has to do it, I have to do it. Because that’s right.”

I’ve been getting my hands dirty my whole life.

I wonder if their laws or standards of good and evil have any meaning to Surna, who transcends humans.

Surna knows.

Because he lived for a long time and used his power to learn things he didn’t want to learn.

He learned human conscience, morality, ethics, good and evil, and religion.

I went beyond simply knowing it with my head and accepted it with my heart.

[Proof]

Because that was his power.

Even though he knew that, Surna did all this solely for the sake of Arkenis’ resurrection.

It causes chaos in the world, makes the Holy Kingdom active again, and causes a holy war.

Finished.

Even though he knew he was going to die.

“So let’s go.”

“i get it. “We just need one more person.”

“Then what about me?”

Helia intervened.

“You seem to be fine.”

“Thanks to someone who protected me.”

Helia said that, but her expression also showed fatigue that could not be hidden.

Catherine stared at Helia quietly, and Helia only glanced at Catherine and did not react in any way.

“There is no reason for you to fight here any longer.”

Surna said.

Helia pouted her lips at those words.

“What is he saying now. It’s not up to you to decide why. “If I said I was going to fight, I just did it.”

“why?”

“Just whatever. Still, we were fellow apostles, and Miu and Go have known each other for a long time, so you could at least see them off on your final departure, right?”

“I am very grateful.”

Helya held out her hand, and Surna grabbed it and stood up.

Wow.

Meanwhile, part of Surna’s skin fell to the floor like a piece of broken pottery.

It was a sign that he didn’t have much time left.
