Chapter 224 Shield of Peace

Shield of Peace

‘Are they demons who have trained their bodies?’

They were climbing up the cliff to the extent that they seemed to be flying.

“What will we do? Drop them?”

Yeon Jeung asked.

“Can you make them fall?”

Soo Hyuk asked Yeon Jeung.

“Yea.”

Yeon Jeung laughed at Soo Hyuk’s words and said,

“I learned a new skill.”

Yeon Jeung was lucky to level up and learn new skills. And among them, there were very good skills to use in this situation.

“Go ahead.”

Soo Hyuk told Yeon Jeung.

To be honest, they did not need to make the demons coming up fall. They rather hoped that they would come up.

It was because if the distance were close, the magic would explode without time to dispel.

However, he wanted to check Yeon Jeung’s skill.

“Okay! Go back a little.”

At Yeon Jeung’s words, Soo Hyuk stepped back.

“Shield of Peace!”

When Soo Hyuk moved back Yeon Jeung raised his shield and shouted.

*Swoosh*

A golden light shone on the shield. Yeon Jeung then put his golden shield on the ground.

*Swish*

Then, the golden light on the shield formed a wave and spread out.

Soo Hyuk could also see the fast-approaching golden wave, and the moment he touched it.

[Stunned for 2 seconds.]

A message appeared.

‘Does it stun me as well?’

Soo Hyuk was bewildered when he saw the message. Is it a skill that stuns even party members?

‘Is this what it means by peace?’

He seemed to understand why the skill name was ‘Shield of Peace’.

It was a skill that brought everyone to peace, regardless of enemies and allies.

“Wow, they caught them downstairs.”

After casting the skill, Yeon Jeung checked the situation of the demons, muttering with a regretful expression.

The demons who were climbing the cliff also passed out because of the shield of peace and fell off. However, there were many demons below, so they caught the demons that had fallen.

“They are back.”

And the demons, who soon came to their senses, started climbing up the cliff again.

“I’ll take care of it this time.”

Soo Hyuk approached Yeon Jeung side.

Then he cast magic on the demons coming up the cliff.

“Poison Spear, Fire Spear, Magic Missile, FireBall.”

“Human?”

Riinka could not help but panic. She felt a lot of magic, and she thought that the worst situation had happened. It was because the only one who could exude such magical energy was Amiletta.

So, she gave orders to some of the demons that followed, which was to tell Redkros about the situation.

However, after looking at the top of the cliff where she felt the magical energy from, it was not Amiletta.

‘How can humans have this magic power?’

It was a human that exuded that magic power.

It was then.

She could feel the heat from the front along with great magic force.

Riinka was looking at the human on top of the cliff, then she could see a firestorm approaching at high speed.

As soon as Riinka saw the Firestorm, she prepared her spell. She wanted to dispel Firestorm.

Riinka then cast Dispel towards the Fire Storm.

“Sigh”

The dispel was successful and the firestorm was gone.

Riinka let out a deep sigh.

‘This is no joke.’

Riinka sighed and looked over the cliff.

‘Is that a human?’

The firestorm was obviously a magic used by the humans on the cliff.

It was hard to believe that humans could use such powerful magic.

She wondered if it was something else in human form.

Suddenly, she felt a tremendous amount of magic from the front.

Riinka looked ahead of her, and she could see a poison storm.

As she watched the poison storm, Riinka clenched her teeth and gathered her magic. Then once again cast Dispel.

Dispel was successfully cast, and Poison Storm disappeared as well.

Riinka could not say anything as she consumed an enormous amount of magic just to dispel two spells.

‘I’m glad I’m a magician.’

Riinka commanded while stabilizing her raging magic.

“Catch the wizard on the cliff.”

“Roger!”

At Riinka’s command, some of the demons behind them started climbing up the cliff.

“Did you say your name is Aigos?”

Riinka said while looking at the demons climbing the cliff to catch humans.

“Yes, Riinka-sama.”

Then Aigos from the back came and answered the call.

“Go now and tell Redkros. It is not Amiletta, it is a human with quite a powerful magic power.”

“Okay.”

“Oh, and this plan is a failure. Tell him that we will clean up here and return.”

“Ok.”

“Now.”

“At your command.”

Aigos turned back and started running.

*Bang*

Just then, a roar erupted from the top of the cliff, and a golden wave spread out.

The demons who touched the golden wave immediately fell off the cliff.

‘He wasn’t just a warrior.’

She thought it was a warrior to protect the human wizards.

But the warrior was not just a bodyguard either.

Riinka waved her hand. Then the fall speed of the demons began to slow down.

The demons who were waiting at the bottom quickly took the fallen demons and put them down on the ground safely.

“Huh!”

Those who had fainted quickly regained their consciousness.

“Sorry.”

And started climbing the cliff again.

However, in the circumstances that followed, Riinka had no choice but to frown.

The human wizard started casting spells.

It was extremely simple magic that was not even worth dispelling.

“Aww!”

“Ahh!”

The problem was that the demons were dying to that simple magic.

‘I can’t help it.’

His magic is good, but his physical abilities are not going to be great. So, they tried to subdue him with demons with excellent physical abilities.

However, looking at the situation, it seemed that the damage would be too great if it continued like this. It seems like she had to go ahead and suppress him herself.

‘If he casts that much magic, he will not have enough mana.’

It will not be hard. Casting Fire Storm and Poison Storm would cost a lot of mana.

And even now, he was using magic towards the demons who came to capture him. He should have run out of mana now. All she must do is climb up and finish.

“Wait here.”

Riinka spoke to the demons behind her and cast fly. Then she climbed the cliff with the human wizard.

It was then.

“Hellfire.”

As soon as she reached the cliff, a human voice was heard.

‘Hellfire?’

The moment when she heard the human’s voice.

*Swoosh*

Riinka could see the Hellfire appearing in front of her.

_________

“Why did you come back?”

It was because some of those who had been sent to the separate unit had returned.

Among those who returned, Oleming, the strongest demon, opened his mouth.

“Riinka-sama sent us.”

“Riinka-sama?”

Redkros asked.

“Yes, she sent us to report that she can feel Amiletta’s magic on the cliff.”

“What? Amiletta?”

At Oleming’s words, Redkros jumped up from his seat.

Why is Amiletta in the valley when she should be in the capital?

“Is that true?”

“Yeah, I don’t know if it’s Amiletta’s magic, but I also felt a powerful magic force.”

He did not feel it until Riinka told them. But after being told he felt a strong magic force for sure.

It was a Ruler-Class magic power.

It was then that someone entered the tent.

There was a moment of silence, as the eyes of Redkros and the demons inside the tent turned to the newcomer.

“Riinka-sama has something to report urgently.”

That newcomer identity was Aigos.

“It was a human, not Amiletta.”

“A human?”

Redkros frowned.

It was because he could not have imagined that he would hear the word ‘human’ in such a situation.

“Yes, and this mission was a failure. She then said that she would clean up the humans and return.”

‘It was a High-Class Demon.’

After checking the drop window, Soo Hyuk looked at the demons lying on the floor.

It died within 3 seconds of Hellfire being cast.

‘I was a little nervous because of Dispel.’

He was a little nervous because it was a demon that dispelled the firestorm and poison storm.

Soo Hyuk pressed OK to acquire the dropped items. Then he glanced down the cliff.

Many demons remained.

“Poison fog.”

Soo Hyuk cast Poison Fog, then the drop window appeared again, and it started to be updated quickly.

‘It must be only this demon that knew Dispel.’

The demons showed no reaction to the poison fog. They just died helplessly.

[Level Up!]

After 3 seconds, a level-up message appeared.

And after 5 seconds.

[You have completed the quest ‘Kyrad faction’s separate unit’.]

[The contribution also increases by 100,000.]

When the drop window update is finished, a message is displayed.

‘Wow, 100,000 contributions?’

The identity of the reward, which was marked with a question mark, was contribution.

‘How high did it go?’

Soo Hyuk opened the quest window. And he confirmed his contribution through the quest ‘The Fall of Alin’.

[The Fall of Alin]

The war has begun.

Defeat the demons of the Kyrad faction and capture the castle that was announced!

[Contribution: 172,697 / ???]

Quest Reward: ???

‘Hey, the demons gave more than 70,000?’

His contribution was higher than expected. Even though it is said that there is only one High-Class Demon, it was Soo Hyuk who thought it would be only 10 or 20 thousand if they gave a lot.

“What are you going to do?”

Soo Hyuk closed the quest window in response to Yeon Jeung question.

“About what?”

“Are we going back like this or…?”

Soo Hyuk thought about it.

‘Should we go back?’

He already told Allard. If the Kyrad faction’s separate unit does not appear, they will infiltrate the other side.

However, a separate unit of the Kyrad faction appeared.

‘We did not talk about this situation.’

What they talked about was the reverse flanking condition. They did not talk about what to do after the separate unit appeared and they blocked it.

“What would you like to do?”

Soo Hyuk asked Yeon Jeung.

“Hmm, Me?”

In response to Soo Hyuk’s question, Yeon Jeung was surprised as he glanced at the way that the Kyrad faction separate unit came from.

At Yeon Jeung reaction Soo Hyuk smiled and said.

“Let us go.”

“Where?”

“There.”

Soo Hyuk raised his hand and chose the direction the Yeon Jeung just glanced at. It was the road that the separate unit came from.

Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung both smiled at each other without saying a word. Then they came down the cliff and rode the ghost wagon to the Kyrad Faction outpost.
