My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well - Chapter 96
96 – Warrior of Salvation (2)
“All knights are ahead! What the hell are wizards doing!!”
“Captain! Gremlins! Gremlins are flocking to the sky!”
“sh*t… Split the knights in half! Half escort the wizards!”
Another battle broke out.
The head of the Imperial Guard Knights, Carlos Polgram, bit his lip until blood came out.
The aftermath of the previous battle hadn’t gone away, but I felt frustrated at the army of monsters that were constantly driving.
The demon king of greed, Mamon and his subordinate demons.
With only four members, they occupied the imperial palace in one day, summoned demons, and devastated the imperial capital, Felix.
The Imperial Palace, Academy, other facilities and private houses.
There was no place in Felix, the capital city, that was not invaded by monsters.
The entire continent, including the Empire, was thrown into chaos, and the only choice Carlos could make by gathering troops was a decisive battle in front of the imperial palace.
‘The members… exhausted Other volunteer warriors too.’
However, even in that showdown, the limits were beginning to show.
Although the number of volunteers in the human union led by the Guard Knights was decreasing, the number of monsters that surged in like a wave showed no sign of diminishing at all.
Because of this, the battle did not stop day and night, and the warriors were exhausted.
A time when a special turning point is required.
However, a clear solution did not come to Carlos’ mind.
“Damn it… . If there was even Karin… ”
Carlos suddenly missed Karin’s existence.
Although a member of the Knights Templar, Karin Phillip is the heir to the Phillip family and is the continent’s most promising knight.
Her skills rose as she went through several gate sweeps.
Except for Carlos, there was no other knight to catch up with her within the knights, and even as a whole empire, she had grown into a tremendously strong person, ranked in the top five.
However, she could not be used in battle now.
The day the demons occupied the imperial palace and attempted assassination throughout the facility.
This is because Karin was seriously injured while defending against the surprise attack alone.
Even though she was receiving divine treatment every day from a high-ranking priest, she was still seriously injured.
Far from committing them as combat troops, the situation was so critical that they had to worry about whether they were alive or not.
“sh*t… Captain Ludgale. What should I do at a time like this?”
Carlos called out to the old captain who had now disappeared.
He still couldn’t believe that Ludgale, who was the greatest warrior on the continent, had everything stolen from him by the Demon King.
all things.
everything is abnormal.
The situation of mankind, who believed only in the cycle of 10 years and did not prepare for war.
It was falling endlessly, and it was heading for the worst.
It was then.
“Everything, Captain! over there… !!”
Carlos looked at the direction one of the members pointed out urgently.
A group of monsters gathered endlessly to form a mountain.
in its center.
One of the golems was revealing its massive body.
-Geuhuh!!
“Golem? Suddenly, a golem… ”
Carlos muttered blankly as he watched the scene.
However, the member who first pointed to the golem.
He exclaimed with an excited expression as if he knew the identity of the golem.
“Vita Taker! I am a vita taker, Captain!”
“… Vita Taker?”
“yes! The personal golem of Sacher Philip, the deity of the Empire. He came as reinforcements!”
[Vita Taker].
The best prospect of the current academy, and the divinity of the continent and the empire.
Sacher Philip’s flagship golem.
The golem boasting agile movements compared to its gigantic body was snatching up the gremlins embroidered in the sky.
And that wasn’t all.
“Giant Reaper! This time it’s the Giant Reaper, Captain!”
“ah… !!”
The [Giant Reaper], who made his presence known by playing a tremendous role in the destruction of the Demon Alliance, appeared on the other side.
The total dispatch of the main golems possessed by Sacher.
And as if to assist him, in the middle of the battlefield, a warrior holding a sword was sweeping away the monsters.
Carlos finally realized.
Sacher Philip.
He came here as a reinforcement for the Human Alliance.
* * *
The fierce battle with the monster ended once.
It was the result of pouring almost all available power from the beginning.
It was a bit too much to use the main golem [Vita Taker] and [Giant Reaper] at the same time.
I wouldn’t know if I just controlled it quietly, because I personally fought with my sword.
But it had enough effect.
There are few magic tools that are as effective as golems when fighting multiple monsters.
Although they inhaled mana endlessly, thanks to them, they were able to win the battle without taking much damage.
“Student Sacher Philip, nice to meet you. I am Carlos Polgram, who is in charge of the coalition here.”
Resting after all battles.
A middle-aged knight with a dignified appearance approached me.
Carlos Polgram.
He was the father of Zenit Polgram, with whom he had been acquainted before, and an authoritative count of the Empire, who also had ties to the Knights of Colchester.
I politely bowed and greeted.
“This is Sacher Philip. It is an honor to meet the leader of the Royal Guard Knights who protect the empire.”
“no. Are you more injured than that? I know you used a lot of mana while operating two golems… .”
“it’s okay. Thank you for your consideration. I, more… ”
I hurriedly looked around Carlos.
He, the leader, and numerous knights who assist him.
And some wizards or priests lined up behind.
But none of them showed Karin’s face.
I risked being rude and asked him what I was most curious about.
“Captain Carlos. Do you know anything about Karyn Philip’s whereabouts? As you know, she’s my sister, but I couldn’t reach her after the incident… .”
“… … .”
And the silent Carlos.
His expression gradually darkened.
Looking at that face, I felt unbearable anxiety.
“… Hey, is something wrong? If you know the whereabouts, please tell me… ”
“Karin is now in our alliance.”
I was greatly relieved by Carlos’ determined words.
Whatever the situation, it’s because Karin is here.
However, I couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy about his next words.
“But it is not in good shape. During the ambush of the demons at the imperial palace, I was seriously injured while trying to stop them alone.”
“… Is it very bad?”
“I am asking the priests for treatment every day, but I am still unconscious.”
It was a desperate statement, but I didn’t break down easily.
alive anyway
As long as you’re alive, you can fix it.
If it’s not dead, you can put it back to normal.
That’s what I learned from Cloudy, and knowing that, I came all the way here at once.
I said to Carlos with a determined expression.
“Captain, please guide me to where Karin is.”
yet again.
It was his turn to save her, who was lonely and wandering between death and death.
* * *
Inside the walls of the inner palace of the Imperial Palace.
A werewolf boasting a huge body stood there.
Nearly 200 bull men lined up next to it.
It was a Minotaur, an A-rank monster that showed off its superpowers with Fenrir, a high-ranking demon who was under Mamon’s direct command.
They were preparing to depart from the castle at Mamon’s command.
Wiping out all remaining human coalitions.
That was a simple task given to them.
“… It’s noisy outside.”
Fenrir muttered quietly.
Then the head of the Minotaur who was aiding next to him prostrated himself and said,
“uuu- it seems that the golem appeared from the human side… .”
The Minotaur was a monster that knew how to speak the language befitting an A-class monster.
Fenrir’s eyebrows twitched at the word golem.
“Golem?”
“Oooh- yeah… . It seems that there is an alchemist who handles golems on the human side. A gremlin or black bear collapsed helplessly to two golems… .”
“hmm. It’s a golem.”
Fenrir slowly stroked his chin.
Fenrir wants to solve everything by force, but he also knew about the outside news.
The lycanthrope under his command was annihilated.
In that intense battle, I heard that a golem I had never heard of called [Giant Reaper] played an active role.
There was no way that the Minotaurs, the A-class monsters, could use their strength against the golem that even tied the lycanthrope, a mid-level demon.
It is not possible to succeed by simply sending in troops.
Although I lost a lot of power in the confusion.
Human potential is a level that can never be ignored.
It was not for nothing that demons and monsters lost every time in the demon war.
“Hey, you.”
Fenrir called a Minotaur who was reporting the situation by his side.
The Minotaur quickly prostrated itself again.
“Woo-yes, yes, Penrir.”
“Lead 100 of your own people to the back gate of the castle.”
“You mean the afterword?”
“okay. When we go out like this and face each other from the front, you should destroy all the humans exposed in the rear. Got it?”
“Oooh- I see.”
With a quick command, 100 minotaurs started moving towards the back gate of the castle.
A strategy to launch an attack from the front, take advantage of the chaos, and attack the rear again.
It was like a sort of siege operation.
Fenrir.
He is a werewolf with strong powers, but he is also a high-ranking demon who has a lot of war experience and knows how to use strategies.
