Volume 1: The Poem of Departure Chapter 63: Escape
Luckily, or perhaps unfortunately, after breaking through the blockade, the monster chose to flee in the direction of the student camp.
Students who are in adolescence have great mood swings and mental instability, and the battle that happened in the camp before, many students were affected just by watching from the sidelines, and became irritable and active, and at that time the monster had not fully awakened - The previous battle has verified that his own spiritual comfort totem is useless at close range, only Richard's mental power suppression magic combined with high-level spiritual power amplification spar can suppress the affected person, and once that thing is allowed to approach the student camp, the consequences are unimaginable......
Thinking of this, Riolant not only looked at Richard anxiously.
He didn't understand what the hell was going on with this Sage, the Abyss Card.
After the monster seized Delcora's body, Richard seemed to suddenly lose his sense of urgency, whether it was the thing forcibly escaping or removing the cage himself, he just watched without saying a word, and just like now, he could directly teleport to the other party and directly catch or intercept it (Richard has shown such an ability), but he deliberately chose to follow the other party unhurriedly.
The speed control is just right, and he is only one position behind the opponent in the air.
What the hell is he trying to do?
Riolante knew that he should not question the decision of a saint, who had far more knowledge and control than he could, and must have his own thoughts when acting. But Riolant still couldn't control the anxiety in his heart.
It's getting closer and closer to the camp.
Outside the camp.
"Teacher, that monster left town and came towards us. ”
The elven girl Alania pursed her lips and spoke firmly.
When Riolant left the camp, the first thing Kieran did was organize them and gather around him. The effect of the tyrannical mood was only for a few seconds, but every student was terrified by the feeling that their minds were out of their control, and when the teacher told them that it was all because of the monster they thought they had been "knocked off" and that they were only influenced by watching a battle, they had lost much of their courage.
Courage, a bronze warrior charging a silver warrior to the death is called courage, an oak human to single out a dragon is called stupid - the students present naturally know the difference between courage and stupidity. Naturally, they also knew that a monster that would plunge themselves into madness just by watching from the sidelines was definitely not something they could resist.
But when Riolante's summons arrived, and Kieran stepped out of the camp alone, ready to meet the monster's attack, the students stood firm and stood with their teacher.
"You don't have to," Kieran said, looking ahead with his sword and shield in hand, "Standing next to the totem pole, you can still keep yourself safe." ”
"A true warrior is not afraid, even if death lies ahead. Galantre clenched his sword tightly.
"A true aristocrat should step up and not leave his companions and run away alone. El Bolu drew his bow and arrow, and the arrow shimmered with elemental light.
“...... It's coming!"
Alania, who had the most powerful mental power, clearly sensed the approach of the monster, it was a palpitating fluctuation of mental power, even if it was far beyond the scope of her own mental power, but the terrifying feeling clearly came into her mind - and besides, the thing was still approaching at a rapid speed!
Kieran's body shone brightly, the Golden Knight's most powerful defensive skill poured out on him without reservation, he took a step forward, and the shield that shone with golden light was like a barrier at this moment-
But, but......
His eyes widened sharply.
The one wrapped in black mist, entwined, floating in the air like a marionette......
Wasn't it the little magician of that night!
He suddenly fell into a momentary stupor.
“...... Human, knight. ”
"Del Kora" twisted his neck and spoke, but this series of movements was only done under the pull of the black mist, which made his posture look extremely strange.
"The perfection of this body is beyond my expectations. He raised his hand, and with his movements, the black mist that lingered around him was gradually absorbed by Delkora's body, becoming less and less, "You shouldn't stop me. ”
"Actually, you should give up that body. ”
Richard, who came behind him at some point, looked at him with his arms crossed, and there were three people behind him who looked anxious but were stopped by Richard.
"You're going to be disappointed – in every sense of the word. ”
"You value the owner of this body. "Del Cora" smiled, "I bet, you wouldn't dare break it." ”
He suddenly turned his head and raised the staff in his hand.
"Gula na Vanna Denaru Aaron!"
Twisted and strange words burst out of Delcora's mouth.
In the crowd, everyone began to precipitate black mist, whether it was the students or the two teachers, the wisps of black mist quickly precipitated out, condensing into one in mid-air, and as the black fog became more and more, the fog began to gradually turn from virtual to solid.
"Kill him!"
Kiran didn't know what was going on, but he knew that he couldn't let the other party act like this, but when he said this, his hand holding the sword suddenly stopped-
The tension of the battle faded.
His heartbeat slowed, his breathing returned to normal, his tense muscles slowly relaxed—he somehow realized that he had lost the will to fight on that thing.
"You...... What did you do. ”
He wanted to roar, but he didn't even have the slightest emotion of anger, and the words he came out of were strangely calm, as if he was chatting with a friend—
The feeling frightened him, but the horror didn't help him fight.
The black fog finally solidified, exactly what the black shadow looked like that night when it fought. Delkora chuckled, and the black mist that had gathered over the students spread out in an instant, obscuring out the sunlight, and a humanoid monster with a black silhouette fell from the black mist in mid-air, fell to the ground, and scattered in a ball, only to recover in an instant.
They swayed, writhed, and roared silently. They rushed to the army of students.
"Damn...... Why don't I want to fight them......"
"Give me a hard ......"
The students watched all this. They watched as the group of twisted black monsters rushed towards them, but they strangely couldn't muster the slightest desire to fight. They raised their weapons, but their wrists were limp, and they held their staffs high, but their brains subconsciously prevented them from pronouncing the incantation.
They are afraid, they are desperate – but only, there is no anger.
"I see...... Is that the ingredient of that substance anger?" Richard tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Demon...... How advanced are you in the study of spirituality—I said, "Enough fun, little one, and if you keep playing, something will happen to those students!"
"......" Del Cola suddenly turned to look at Richard, her scarlet eyes filled with disdain and mockery.
Richard read what he meant—he was laughing, laughing at Richard for thinking Del Cola was still sober.
But at that moment, all the black monsters suddenly stopped moving.
Delkora was stunned and raised her staff aloft—but only halfway there.
His hand naturally lowered, and he withdrew the staff from the spatial ring, moved his hand, twisted his legs, and then rubbed his chin.
"I see...... It's really a demon clan. ”
The red light in his eyes quietly faded.
A crippled black shadow suddenly popped out of his body,
All the condensed black mist suddenly blurred, scattered into wisps of illusory things and returned to the students' bodies, and the students finally raised their fighting intentions and raised their weapons one after another—
Aimed at Del Kora.
“...... That's what you're aiming for!"
Delkora took a few steps back speechlessly, retreated to Richard's side, and then reached out to the black figure.
"What the hell are you ...... What is it......"
The black figure stood a little stunned. He didn't seem to understand what had just happened.
“...... I don't think you understand, so you don't have to. ”
Delkora sighed and raised her right hand, a ring shining right against the shadow.
"May the flame purify you...... Burn it. ”
Beside the dark shadow, suddenly seven huge runes surrounded it.
Then, a raging flame erupted.
