105 – Raid 1
Dark Bohemia.
Wilson, the soldier guarding the gate of the lord’s castle there, was standing next to the lantern, looking blankly ahead while maintaining a slightly relaxed state.
“Haaam..”
“Hey, I’m on duty, be a little nervous.”
A co-worker scolds Wilson for his mouth-watering yawn.
However, Wilson said about this while looking at his colleague’s face with a simple expression on his face.
“Well, but… honestly, this is what I feel every time, but do we really need to be so nervous about protecting this place?”
“what? What do you mean?”
“No.. actually it is. Our lord, Count Thurn, is Bohemia’s strongest wizard, and his daughters say that we are monsters that can be cut down with one stroke. Is this any different than a mouse standing guard over a lion?”
“!..umm.. well.. that’s… It is, but…”
It was meaningful in its own way in simply announcing the crisis, but in fact, even that could be seen as meaningless considering the castle gate and the guard magic hanging around it.
Of course, a powerful wizard could easily dispel such magic itself, but there weren’t many people with such skill even within the continent.
At least during the day, it was meaningful in that they inspected the guests and sent them in or kicked them out, but there were some parts that could be seen as actually matching the assortment that they were guarding the gate at night.
After all, outsiders are not allowed to enter at night except in case of emergency.
In that regard, seeing his colleague who sympathized with him even though he couldn’t speak openly about his words, Wilson once again yawned in boredom.
‘I’d like to take a nap, but if I do, it’ll be a mess..’
Wilson rubs his eyes in order to somehow wake up from such boredom.
at that time..
-hook!
“huh?”
The next moment, the lamp suddenly goes out.
There was no wind at all, and as it had only been a few minutes since the oil price was marked, he began to question the situation slightly.
“What is this… why did it suddenly turn off?”
Wilson carefully checks the light again.
however..
In the ensuing situation, Wilson could no longer check the lantern he was holding in his hand.
“what… what? What is this?”
“This… this is…”
In the next moment, Wilson and his colleagues look at the Lord’s Castle in deep bewilderment.
At this moment, the eyes of the two began to see the flames that were blooming all over the lord’s castle quickly go out.
From the lanterns on the castle walls, to the windows, corridors, and lights located on top of the spire.
If rain and wind were blowing from the sky, I would have been able to understand that it was because of the wind, but now there was no such thing at all.
This fact automatically began to create a heavy fear in the minds of both of them.
“Hey.. this.. did something happen with this?”
“Mo… I don’t know. Ha.. But first, to report to the upper level..”
The two people were floundering while being caught up in such an ominous gimun.
That moment..
“… uh?”
A sudden chill felt behind them.
that..
Looking at the castle, it gave the impression of blocking their mouths as they were making a fuss.
“… what… what… hey?”
The two slowly turned their heads as they were in deep fear.
right after that…
What they see is…
“!Uhhhhh… !”
-Pak!
The next moment, Wilson and his colleague collapsed on their seats in a sudden shock as they screamed at something in front of them.
Just like that, in front of the two people who were rolling on the floor, the being who had engraved the fear still in their faces stood there slowly stroking their chins.
It has a body made of translucent skulls…
It was wearing a ragged black light robe and holding a huge scythe in one hand.
At its center, a large orb of black light swirled silently, emitting a terrible aura, and purple eyes glowed in the hollow of its skull.
Then, it tries to point its scythe at Wilson and his comrades who are lying at their feet.
At that moment… she was standing behind it.
Soul Mary spoke in a calm voice.
“That’s it, soul harvesting is prohibited on this mission.”
-“All right. You are a mighty monarch…”—
It politely bows its head at Soul’s words and reaps the scythe.
Right after that, while watching the Lord Castle, which maintained a heavy silence in a situation where the lights were completely turned off, she stood behind Soul and spoke in a light voice.
“It is definitely convenient. your Pluto. It’s a magic you developed, but I want to learn it too.”
“Unfortunately, this kind of knowledge is not shared. Even if you are an older sister, please put up with that, in case you have a disciple later.”
“Whoops. OK got it. Certainly, if it were a witch, that would be the correct answer.”
Soul, who smiles and speaks with sincerity.
Regarding this, Blood laughed a little at her uniformity, and then looked at the Bohemia Castle, which had become completely dark, and said.
“Now, then.. Let’s talk about it.. Thanks to Pluto, the security magic has been canceled, and the light has disappeared, so shall we move on?”
“Yes, sister.”
With those words, Blood begins to emit tremendous magical energy from its body.
Right after that, the mana emanating from her body formed a huge circle and began to spread widely in all directions.
Its diameter is about 3 km
Through it, which completely covered the Bohemia Castle, which occupied a fairly large area, including the garden, Blood was able to sense the position of everyone in the castle and their behavior almost perfectly.
In addition, it is also possible to identify the person named Santana in question through this, as the ability of the magical power possessed can also be roughly detected.
In that way, after specifying the position of a being with relatively weak power among the wizards in the castle, Blood released the circle of magical power that had been spread out and said with a deep smile on his lips.
“Okay.. Now that you know the approximate location, let me go in. You buy me time in the outskirts as planned.”
“Yes, sister. All right.”
Vlad hides himself in the darkness and jumps up on the wall in an instant and goes inside.
Seeing her like this, Soul threw one last look at the guards lying on the floor, and then quietly walked inside through the small open gate.
What you see right after that is the appearance of a large garden located beyond the castle wall.
There weren’t that many trees or flower beds, and while looking at the place that made it feel a bit like a square, Soul slowly started heading towards the main building of the lord’s castle in front.
at that time..
“bang!”
-Pak!
The next moment, a bullet flew toward her and was blocked by her barrier.
Accordingly, Soul’s gaze began to turn toward the direction the bullet flew.
“Stand there! What is your true identity!”
A group of soldiers looking at themselves and asking in sharp voices.
As soon as the lights went out and the magical energy was released, they seemed to have hurriedly gathered toward the castle gate, holding a narrowly lit torch and pointing their guns at us.
The number was about dozens, and among them there were a small number of people who seemed to be wizards.
In response to this, Soul, with an expressionless face, began to look this way.
OK..
“!”
“what… what is that?”
The next moment, the soldiers begin to express bewilderment and fear due to the scene in front of them.
It was a place where only a woman in a purple robe and something in a black robe had been standing there until just now.
But at this moment…
In the eyes of the soldiers, countless translucent beings began to appear behind the two beings.
From soldiers with spears and shields to cavalry on horseback.
The number seemed to be about a hundred, enough to fill the back of her as she entered the castle.
then slowly
Soul stretched out one hand and pointed at the soldiers with a finger.
At the same time, a nightmare began for the soldiers trying to stop the intruders.
“Then.. Please act as loudly as possible and in moderation.”
