C74 - At the End of the Nightmare (1)
Around the year 500 of the Lowellius Calendar, the Middle Ages arrived.
The appearance of beings called demons had brought despair to the world.
The conflict between demons and humans continued and human civilization collapsed.
There wasn't even an adequate record, and it was an old story that was transmitted only by word of mouth.
Someone just made fun of him and laughed, but someone knew.
Those facts were really real.
* * *
The man who walked among the ruined castle wore a crow mask.
Along his steps, the boulders in front of him were pushed sideways and created a path.
When he reached the center of the castle, he stopped and put his hand on the ground.
At that moment, the characters of the runes appeared and flew in the air as if to take him away, and soon all lost their strength and fell to the ground.
At the same time, the floor had a door to the basement.
A road that Prillesha's royalty didn't even know.
It really took a long time to get here collecting stories and traces of the manuscripts.
There was no other reason for Estakar, another name for the sea, to be as bright as gold.
Disaster.
The great demon, called Disaster (Dadenuev), was asleep on this earth.
The Ancients, who had no power to destroy the great demon, barely managed to subdue the great demon into the sea.
It was sealed.
The center of the seal.
The ancients built a castle to protect the center of the seal.
And later, one of the ancient people who sealed the great demon founded a Kingdom, known as the Prillesha Kingdom.
But now, this place had lost its purpose.
At present, the castle had completely collapsed, and the people here had dispersed.
There was no one to interfere.
Crow Mask continued down the dark stairs, and as soon as he reached the place where the seal spell was drawn, his steps stopped.
He removed something from his arms. It was a cane with embedded red gems.
It was an artifact that the Outsiders obtained by cleaning a Class 3 Shadow World.
No one knew the use, except the old one.
This Artifact was a means that could awaken the evil that was sealed in the Middle Ages.
Crow Mask put the staff in the center of the seal.
Then a red manna, like a drop of blood, fell.
* * *
Around the afternoon, when the Outsiders' attacks were somewhat organized.
The sea shone like melted gold.
When the Avalon Unit reached the summit of the Western Kingdom through the space gate that had been restored, the Outsiders were quickly repressed.
Upon realizing that there was no hope, the remains of the Outsiders surrendered, and with that, the situation was resolved.
The Elo Ocean Tournament stadium, which was used as a temporary venue, was full of defense troops and refugees.
The guards seemed quite tired, but seemed proud of having defeated the intruders.
"Try this".
"This is also very delicious."
"No, I already ate a lot of that."
"It's fine, it's fine."
The National Guard generously delivered the rationed meals to the young aid troop outside the country.
They were Hebrion students, who with a rather awkward smile refused, but could not overcome everyone's enthusiasm.
A tower made of a lot of food was created.
Of course, the students were Desir's Party.
There were traces of long battles: several minor injuries and fatigue.
But like other members of the National Guard, his expression of putting food in his mouth seemed happy.
"I heard they are a pretty famous party in Hebrion."
"They are incredible!".
The Desir Party was receiving a positive response from the soldiers in the Kingdom of Prillesha.
The administrator, who was not very satisfied with the word Hebrion, considered them as guests and began to be courteous.
There was no one who didn't know his name.
In particular, the soldiers who clearly saw their performance were especially excited when they attacked the space movement station.
No one knew how many gifts the Desir Party received, only knowing that the seats in the stadium where the group sat, formed a hill made of so many miscellaneous things.
"My mother would pass out if she found out today."
Romantica looked very happy.
He was very happy because he repelled the threat he represented to his homeland with his own strength.
"Here you are".
There was a thick and calm voice.
Desir and his group, who had a brief conversation and rested in the stadium, rose from their seats when Zod and Priscilla approached.
"No no. Feel at home, Priscilla."
"I know. Hi guys, could you meet and sit for a while?"
Priscilla, who approached the Desir Party, gathered Pram and Adjest wounded. When he closed his eyes, the light began to curl around the area of wounds.
There was a sigh of relief among the soldiers watching him.
[Healing]
This is the ability for which Priscilla was called Santa.
There were many magic spells that increased natural healing power, but their magic was different from those things.
The magic of cleaning the wound, stopping the bleeding and generating a new skin quickly.
No matter how serious the injury is, when Priscilla stretched her arms, the wounded returned to normal immediately.
Soon after, Pram and Adjest's wounds disappeared without a scar.
"It's just a slight injury, so I ended up soon. That's lucky."
"Thank you".
Adjest bowed.
Meanwhile, Desir and Zod shared their own stories.
"You have done a great job, the Kings have been very grateful, maybe it will have a positive effect on improving your relationship with Hebrion."
It's lucky.
"If you need anything, call me anytime."
"Are the kings still in the shelter?"
"They will be there until everything is over. Why do you ask?"
"Because I couldn't locate that person with the Crow Mask."
"Yes".
Zod nodded.
“I don't know the purpose of the Outsiders' behavior at this time. While this damage is done, I think they will leave here. ”
Zod was thinking the same as Desir.
“Of course, now that the Outsiders have been suppressed, there is nothing I can do. The Avalon Unit is there, and I have also established a guardian spell to be able to respond at any time. "
"It's reassuring to be so alert, but there is a contingency."
Desir still felt strange even though things had been resolved.
Crow Mask
Only a few moments, but Desir could see the magical mask of Crow Mask deployed. His magic was very precise and complex.
He was a wizard with considerable skill.
'But he couldn't beat Zod with his abilities.'
We also beat all the Outsiders he led. There would be no more troops to mobilize.
But just at that moment ...
!!!! - !!!
A deafening and sinister roar was heard.
There was a restless and trembling look. Desir asked Zod.
"Did you hear that?"
"...clearly".
The sound was heard from the shore.
"No way…"
Desir got up from the seat. His heart beat like it was going to explode. Something was about to happen.
"Look, look over there!"
There was a lot of noise around the stadium. People looked up at the sky.
The golden sun was turning black.
"...!"
Desir, who had a track, left his seat and left the stadium.
The world was turning gray.
Desir started running towards the shore where the sound had been heard.
Street light and surrounding landscape approached and suddenly disappeared.
It was lightning that appeared out of nowhere.
Desir was out of breath, but Desir didn't care.
He thought: 'Crow Mask is starting to move.'
That would be all.
It certainly will be.
But what the hell are you going to do?
Are you developing a magic of six circles?
Desir thought.
There was the only 7 Circle Wizard, Zod, and Desir's ability to Analyze and Revert.
If it was a magic, although it would take time, it would be a piece of cake to solve it.
But it was not magic spell.
If it wasn't a magic, then it would be a different kind of threat.
'Please...'
Then, Desir could reach the sea.
That was the moment when the evening light was coming.
The sea must be yellow.
But it was not.
The golden sea turned black as if the black ink had fallen in its center.
Black sun.
Here everything became colorless.
This landscape
That sun.
This background.
He knew it.
The memory clearly remained in Desir.
"...No, it can not be".
The reaction was faster than consciousness.
His pupils enlarged.
Reason constantly told him that this was a dream, and it was not reality.
However, at the same time ...
The mountain range broke.
The cliff broke due to the waves and the earth gave a horrible scream.
Something huge was coming out of the sea.
He seemed to be dreaming.
But the body in front of him was a very vivid reality as if he had just come out of a nightmare.
"What the hell is that?"
"Is ... a magic beast? But that size ..."
Romantic and Pram, who were late, were horrified to see the demon.
Adjest lost his word and stared at her, and Zod touched the end of his cane with a confused look.
"A demon."
A nightmare of antiquity that had only been heard in legends.
A nightmare of more than ten meters high, with runes engraved on its fangs, and an evil necklace with an infernal fire around the neck
One of the great demons that devastated humanity in ancient times.
"The devil of destruction, Dadenuev..."
