Episode 39

sereung.

The silver sword made a clear metallic sound as it came out of the scabbard.

It was a little over a meter in length, a silvery black that seemed to be made of pure silver.

It was a weak looking weapon to deal with a huge ogre, but the size of the weapon would not be such an important issue for a master warrior capable of manifesting external air.

aaah!

The ogre appeared breaking a thick tree and slammed its head with its fist, screaming.

He must have seen the subjugation party, but he didn’t attack and ran amok by himself like a madman.

Regardless of whether it was a tree or a rock, he smashed whatever he could get his hands on and threw it in all directions.

Then, one of the pebbles scattered by the ogre hit the arm of the mercenary next to me.

The strength of the gravel was so great that the armor tore apart and a handful of forearm flesh fell from within.

“100 million!”

The mercenary screamed and grabbed his arm.

Then, someone who seemed to be his colleague was surprised and took out a recovery potion and handed it to him.

The injured mercenary was worried about the side effects of the recovery potion, so he only consumed a small amount until his blood stopped.

But then the priest at the commanding post approached the wounded mercenary.

“Shindo-sama, I will help you heal.”

“Thank you, priest.”

The priest raised his arm and placed his hand near the mercenary’s stomach.

Then, the mercenary’s wounds healed as quickly as when a troll regenerates.

Although all of his injuries had been healed, the mercenary’s face showed no sign of fatigue.

‘As expected, the priest is the best.’

The ability of the priest was the closest to the magician I had imagined.

Ganggung is the place where the soul resides.

Priests are those who have received the terminal of Teres, that is, the soul of God, into the strong palace.

Of course, not everyone could receive the terminal, and it required Mana’s talent and blind faith in Deres.

As soon as ordinary people imprint mana simbeop in two places, gihae and flood, the simbeop collides in the strong palace, and the efficiency of seniority drops sharply.

However, thanks to the powerful soul, the priest was able to use the two mana simbeop without any problems.

As a result, it was possible to use both the mana of the sea and the mana of the sea to double strengthen.

It will be able to produce twice the output of a warrior of the same class.

Of course, as much as the mana mental method was imprinted on the sea, the magician’s ability can be demonstrated.

In addition, priests also have amazing healing abilities.

The soul and body are one, and both have the property of trying to resemble each other.

The priest strengthens the soul by using the soul power from Deres’ terminal.

In the process, the body is restored to its whole state along with the soul.

Like this, the clergy had superior abilities compared to ordinary mana users.

It wasn’t just that people looked up to the clergy more than nobles and looked down on them.

Apart from religious beliefs, there were practical reasons.

‘Even so, there’s no way I’ll become a priest.’

Priests are forbidden to marry in order to serve only Theres.

However, since an ascetic life was not compulsory, becoming a priest was not a bad choice if you did not intend to start a family.

However, blind faith is not something you can get just because you vaguely want to get it.

If there is a god I fear, it is an absolute being who creates the universe and is not bound by time and space, not a personal god like Teres.

From noble mtl dot com

Deres, by my standards, was respected as a transcendent who had accomplished great feats.

In this way, it was impossible for someone to have blind faith in God according to their beliefs or inclinations.

In a way, faith in Deres can also be said to be a talent.

It was a talent that was rarer than Mana’s talent, which could be caught up even a little through effort.

‘But even if I had that kind of talent, I’d say no.’

Accepting the soul of a god into the strong palace somehow made me feel uneasy.

And I didn’t like the fact that the moment I lost my faith, I lost all my abilities.

I had to develop my own strength to get the true freedom I wanted.

After completing the treatment, the priest returned to the front.

In the meantime, Captain Luna was approaching the ogre step by step.

It seems that he has no intention of waiting any longer.

Stones and tree branches thrown by the ogre flew to Captain Luna.

Captain Luna moved steadily, dodging what was to be avoided and cutting out what was to be cut.

The ogre, rampaging like crazy, hit his head hard against a large nearby rock.

bang!

The rocks shattered with a loud sound and fragments fell.

The ogre shook his head, came to his senses, and looked around.

It was only now that he started to take an interest in the punitive force.

In the meantime, Captain Luna was approaching 10 meters of the ogre.

bugs!

The ogre screamed so loudly that the surroundings reverberated.

Then, it rushed at Captain Luna, who was nearby, with surprising speed.

The ogre twisted his back and quickly swung his outstretched arm behind him.

The wide open hands seemed large enough to cover Captain Luna’s upper body.

Captain Luna spurred the ground lightly and jumped onto the ogre’s hand to avoid the attack.

At the same time, it rolled its body into a circle and spun once, like a waterwheel.

The outstretched sword passed the ogre’s hand in a silvery trail.

Big!

The ogre’s fingers were severed and he fell to the floor.

The guy screamed in pain.

The output that a master-gyeong warrior can produce is three times that of a master-gyeong.

He could cut off as many bones as an ogre’s finger bones.

If it were to manifest external air, it would be able to rip the ogre’s huge body into two pieces at once.

The ogre raised its left arm in a motion as if catching an insect and struck it down at Captain Luna.

Captain Luna was still floating in the air, so it seemed like anyone would be able to take a direct hit from the ogre’s attack.

But at that moment, Captain Luna slightly bent her right leg and raised her leg so that the sole of her foot could be seen to the side.

Then he hit the sole of his foot with the side of his sword.

Then, as if someone pushed her from the side, her body moved to the left in the air.

Seeing this, the ogre stretched out its huge right foot toward Captain Luna.

At that moment, Captain Luna bent down slightly and quickly fell to the floor as if a heavy weight was hanging from her body.

The ogre’s foot barely passed over Captain Luna’s head.

As soon as Captain Luna came down to the floor, he spread his bent upper body and swung the sword over his head.

The silver sword cut off the ogre’s Achilles tendon in one fell swoop.

Captain Luna quickly jumped under the ogre’s legs and swung forward the sword that had been extended behind his back as if chopping firewood.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

The ogre let out a pitiful scream with a loud voice that was incomparably louder than before.

He put his hand between his bleeding legs and turned to the left to grab Captain Luna.

However, due to a severed Achilles tendon, he was unable to properly balance and fell backwards.

At that time, Captain Luna, who passed between the ogre’s legs, turned around in an instant.

She twisted her body like a pretzel and raised the dangling sword to the sky.

Where the sword passed, the ogre’s neck was located.

Awesome!

The ogre’s severed head rolled across the floor with its eyes wide open.

A huge amount of blood poured out like a waterfall from the severed neck to match the huge body.

Master Warrior Musa moves faster than an ogre and possesses strong offensive power that can pierce the ogre’s defense.

Like the introductory samurai who dealt with orcs, it was not difficult to deal with three or four ogres.

At that time, when everyone was admiring Captain Luna’s strength.

The ogre’s head, which had fallen to the floor, suddenly moved by itself.

‘what?’

The moment I expressed my doubts.

The ogre’s mouth slid open, and a large wasp emerged from it at lightning speed.

It was so fast that it was difficult to determine its exact appearance, but it was a little smaller than the wasp I hunted before.

Who would have imagined that a monster would come out of the head of an ogre that had just died.

However, Captain Luna reacted quickly and threw herself straight to catch the wasp.

However, the ogre’s head rolled away, and the wasp flew in the opposite direction from her, so the chase failed in the end.

Sister Eva, who saw this, spoke in a worried voice.

“It’s an intermediate level monster. We missed him, so he’ll reappear soon in groups. Sir Halli. Do you really intend to continue marching?”

There is a difference between moving in anticipation of risk and moving in a state of risk.

Sister Eva asked Han-ri once again if he was going to change his mind.

“Don’t talk about it any more. In the next week or so, we will arrive at the entrance of the ogre habitat we targeted. We have absolutely no plans to retreat until we complete our mission.”

Seeing Hanli’s determined attitude, Sister Eva gave up and didn’t say anything more.

After a while, the collection of ogre by-products began under the direction of the wizard.

Ogres had so many useful parts, such as leather, tendons, claws, bones, and teeth.

However, the body of a dead ogre did not have as strong durability as when it was alive.

In the case of leather, when alive, it could withstand even a steel sword reinforced by a skilled officer, but after death, it could be easily cut even if it was unreinforced.

However, once magically processed, it could produce a level of defense equal to that of a thin iron plate, so armor made of ogre skin was much more valuable than heavy plate armor.

After the ogre was dismantled, the wizard took out a square bag the size of an adult’s head and opened the lid.

After that, I loosened the leather straps that were tightening the entrance, widened the entrance as much as possible, and put in the by-products of the ogre one by one.

Even though the amount of by-products was considerable, it seemed to be a sub-space bag.

After a while.

It was the time when the subjugation party, which had finished collecting by-products, was about to advance again.

“Wait. An ogre is coming.”

Captain Luna turned his head and looked into the forest as if he had sensed something.

I’ve listened too, but haven’t heard anything yet.

And not long after, there was an earth-shaking thump.

Judging by the sound, it was estimated that there were four.

before the ogres arrive.

Halli quickly rearranged the unit.

In front, Captain Luna stood alone.

To the left of Captain Luna were 6 knights, 2 wizards, and a priest.

The wizards were reaching out to Hanli and one of the other knights.

It seemed that he was probably using his own mana to strengthen the knight.

Behind them, the rest of the personnel lined up at regular intervals.

‘One leader Luna, one reinforced knights and one priest, then the mercenaries should block the other two.’

An introductory warrior standing in front of an ogre is no different from a paper doll.

At least, you had to have a skilled pair of glasses to rub against the ogre.

If the mercenary corps fought with all their might, it would be enough to kill 2 ogres.

However, many lives will be lost in the process.

Except for a few knights with their heads full, no one would want such a dog death.

It was a time when everyone was preparing for battle in tension.

“Monster!”

Suddenly, Captain Luna shouted in a loud voice.

“A monster?”

“Even an ogre is about to die, but a monster?”

“If you do this, everyone will die.”

Words of astonishment and frustration poured out from all over the punitive force.

And after a while, I began to faintly hear the flapping of the wings of bees that shook the air strongly.
