"Sister Sakura! Aschetaro is Reis's brother! Little Luca woke up with confused eyes and exclaimed to me urgently, "Ah! Wrong! Brother Reis is Aschetaro! Neither is it right...... What the hell should I say...... - woo! Luca: I don't understand! ”

"That ......," Rusya, who had been anxiously on the side, asked her before me, "...... You...... That blood ...... That Lacey's blood ......"

"Ahh That's right, that's right! - I got that Blood Luka from Ashetaro! The little guy reacted, "That Aschetaro is in the guise of Brother Reis!" ”

"But......" I looked out of the window with Rusya at the cabin in confusion—wasn't Lacey's body there?

"That's a fake! - Sister Minia said...... Yes! That's right! Sister Minia! After saying that, little Luca hurriedly wanted to jump out of bed-

“…… Don't worry! I hurriedly reassured, "Your sister Minia will be fine, sister I have already told Asa to take care of her." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Oh ......! That's good! Little Luca breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now, Luca, what the hell is going on?!"

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

It happened last night.

The priests who learned of the place where the Funeral Corps was stationed had gathered near the forest where the Funeral Corps was stationed in the evening.

Their plan was to have three digital priests each lead ten first-class priests, surround the burial corps from three sides, and launch a surprise attack together after nightfall.

The plan is simple and straightforward.

(As Lacey had told me before—the brains of the priests were mostly tendons, and plans always seemed to be the simplest kind.) ）

So in the middle of the night, little Luca followed Minia and the first-class priests to the edge of the camp.

It was a camp of more than 200 people, and there was no word or noise.

Although the silence of the camp was somewhat eerie, the situation seemed normal, and the undead soldiers mostly sat in place with expressionless faces. Occasionally, a few stiff-moving patrolmen walked around the camp.

Legion of the Dead - When little Luca saw this silent situation, the first thing that came to her mind was the nickname of the Burial Corps.

After a closer look, they didn't see the demons, and the priests didn't sense the existence of the demons - except for sitting quietly in the tent in the middle of the camp. Ashetaro, who constantly exudes anomalous magic.

The one wore a skeletal helmet and wore dark gold armor. The tall figure with the black giant sword on his back was the head of the burial corps.

Little Luka and Minia observed together for a long time, but they still didn't find the expected demons, judging from the behavior of those camp soldiers, it seemed that they were just a group of people controlled by magic.

Is it offense? Or continue to wait for the opportunity?

Originally, the plan of the digital priests was to exterminate the burial corps mixed with demons, so that they could not only complete the task of acting the pope, but also take the opportunity to show off the strength of the digital priests.

But now there is no half of the demons in the camp - according to the information provided by Minia, there should be at least two demons in the burial corps.

One is the demon princess Bisha - Rusya's sister.

One is Simon, the princess's bodyguard.

Why?

Where have the demons gone?

As little Luca whispered Minia if she should send a signal to the other two groups of priests to attack together. The unexpected happened.

The accident happened in a split second - just when they were lurking in the silent forest, feeling that everything was normal, suddenly and inexplicably felt a panic.

Yes, a fluster, a panic from the bottom of my heart.

Then everyone looked back involuntarily - there was nothing behind them, but they could clearly feel that something was calling in that direction.

At the same time, the stars and moon above their heads dimmed together, and a howling wind blew around them, and the birds that had been sleeping in the treetops scattered in panic.

It is in this chaotic moment. Aschetaro, who had been sitting in the tent, suddenly let out a mournful "oh-" cry, and then stood up and hurried out of the camp.

However, just as he was about to step out of the tent. Ashetaro trembled again and fell to his knees.

Holding his head in his hands, he groaned wildly, and his huge body curled up on the ground in pain—

"Whoa!" As if in response to Aschetaro's scream, there was a rush of rustling in the camp, and the soldiers in the camp, who had been sluggish, suddenly stood up in unison with their weapons in their hands—

Seeing this, little Luca's heart sank suddenly, who was surprised—oh no! It's been discovered!

Believing that Minia and the group of priests also had the same idea, they saw Minia immediately throw out lightning into the air, and at the same time raise her sword and shout. "Everyone! Offensive! - Don't let any of them go! ”

The priests behind him immediately sent out all kinds of fireballs and light bullets, and flew into the camp with a whistling roar.

Accompanied by violent explosions and flashes, those unresponsive peripheral soldiers were instantly broken through by the magic of the priests. Immediately afterward, the priests who were on standby from three directions rushed into the camp.

The enemy who counterattacked was not strong. For that group of top priests, the Burial Corps, which is known as the number one mercenary group, is so vulnerable. However, Minia and Little Luca, who were the first to rush to the leader's tent and prepare to join forces with the other two digital priests to attack Ashetaro, had already noticed that something was wrong—

Among the soldiers who stood up to fight the priests, the group that was closer to the chief's tent was besieging Ashetaro. And the soldiers on the periphery didn't seem to pay much attention to the battle with the priests at all, and rushed in desperately!

- Their target is Ashetaro! Those soldiers didn't notice the clergy lying in ambush around them at all!

"Sister Minia! They—" Little Luca asked in confusion during the fierce battle.

"Magic Eater!" After smashing a soldier, Minia was overjoyed, "It just so happened that Ashetaro's control failed!" Luca! Opportunity – We're on! ”

"Good!" Little Luca, who had also knocked down the enemy, raised her gun - only to see what surprised her!

I saw that Ashetaro, who was besieged by the soldiers, raised the black big sword in his hand, first slashed at the left front three times in a row, shattered the soldiers, and then stabbed forward five times!

That's—

"-Meteor Sword?!" Little Luca froze, "How?!" ”

"Luca! What's wrong?! Seeing that little Luka was suddenly stunned in place, Minia, who was about to rush quickly, hurriedly came over to cover, "What are you in a daze?!" ”

"That's—that's the Meteor Sword!" Little Luca pointed ahead with a puzzled face. "That Asshetaro is using Brother Lacey's 'Meteor Sword'!"

"That maggot's meteor sword?!" Minia was also stunned, and then realized that Ashetaro's sword move was almost exactly the same as Lacey's!

If it was an ordinary meteor sword's sword move, it would be fine—after all, Pandey's swordsmanship was widely spread—but the only person who could use a heavy sword to wield such a swift meteor sword, now. Holding a black greatsword, Ashetaro was supposed to slash and smash according to the greatsword swordsmanship. I'm actually using the Meteor Sword of the assassination system!

So, Minia was also puzzled: "How is this possible?!" ”

However, just as they were stunned, they easily slashed the soldiers, and the priesthood who had opened the passage had already rushed to Ashetaro's side, and the other two troops had also approached under the leadership of the digital priest-

"Oh-" The besieged Asshetaro let out a deafening wail when he raised his head to the sky again, and then a large amount of thick black mist emerged from his dark gold-encrusted armor, and just as the black mist blocked the priests' attacks, Ashetaro flicked his right hand violently. The black greatsword came out of his hand, wrapped in an equally thick black mist, and swept away everything in its path with a huge impact - including several approaching priests!

This time, little Luca and Minia were even more surprised - that move was Lacey's special move - Meteor Sword * Disease!

"How is that possible?!" The second digital priest, Saint Flame Sword Ishus, was shocked, "Everyone disperse!" ”

However, before Theseus could finish speaking, Ashetaro waved his hand again, and the black greatsword quickly changed direction and flew straight towards Theseus!

"What?!" Extremely surprised, Theseus couldn't dodge, so he had to jerk forward with his sword technique, "Holy Flame? Burst! ”

Just flashed, just flashed! Theseus's Holy Flame Sword only erupted in a fierce flame. And then it was shattered by the black sword that flew closer—and at the same time, Iseus's cloth-like body!

"Ishus!" Minia, who couldn't be rescued, only had time to pick up Iseus's head with a shocked expression, "How could it be ......?"

"Here we go again! Everyone, hide! "At this time, the fourth digital priest, Starlight Giveira, had just arrived. Hurriedly opened the magic barrier at the black sword that flew close again—but just like Theseus, the digital priest's powerful magic barrier only slightly hindered the black sword's momentum.

"Sister Givira! Shem! Little Luca roared and stabbed Ashetaro from behind.

(Minia told me afterwards that if it weren't for the little one's short stature and Asshetaro's blocking arm grazing her scalp, little Luca would have been killed.)

"Roar......" Asshetaro let out a roar of rage, and as he recalled the black sword, he slammed it at little Luca.

"It's too slow!" The little guy dodged the black sword that slashed at him. Then he leaped to his feet, as he skimmed over the top of Ashetaro's head. Swing the spear down!

Stabbed! The spear sliced through the dark gold-encrusted armor and slashed across Ashetaro's shoulder. Bring out a long string of blood drops - red blood droplets!

Red blood? - Isn't the blood of demons all blue?

Little Luca, who had not yet landed, had such a doubt flashing in her heart, but before she could confirm it carefully, a familiar energy shock suddenly came from the tip of her spear!

Spear - Sky Lance? Elise's spear, the tip of the spear that stabbed Asshetaro stained with red blood, unexpectedly emitted pure white holy light on its own!

That's the light of the Heavenly Spear when it once awakened! That's the light that the spear once emitted after it was splashed with Lacey's blood!

How so?!

"Elise?!" Shocked, little Luca hurriedly looked at the tip of the gun in confirmation—forgetting that Asshetaro was behind him!

"Luca! Be careful! Minia, who pounced on her, held the dazed little Luca to dodge Asshetaro's fatal sword, but because of this, she was slashed by the black sword on her side!

"Sister Minia!"

"Let's do it together!" Givilla led the clergy to meet them and unfurled the wall of light.

Then there was a loud bang - Ashetaro, who had confirmed the target, swung his black sword frantically and slammed it on the defensive light wall again and again!

"Luca! I'm fine," Minia ordered little Luca, who was already crying, to her wounds, "go and help Gevilla!" ”

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

- What kind of power is this?!

- How can there be such a powerful force in the world?!

- The collective wall of light of more than a dozen priests couldn't stop Ashetaro's black sword?!

- What's more, there are also little Luca, the successor of the Heavenly Spear, and the fourth digital priest Givera!

In the light array, I don't know how long it has been supported, and the expressions of the priests who saw that the wall of light cracked more and more under the attack of that crazy black sword became more and more terrifying.

Can't escape, no, there's no way to escape.

Except for those who had just been hiding together at the critical moment, the lone priests around the battlefield were either trapped by the black mist emanating from Ashetaro's body, or they were slashed by the energy that burst out of the black sword explosion - there was no chance to fight back.

As for the soldiers who originally besieged Ashetaro, they couldn't withstand the impact of that frenzied energy at all, and they were torn apart by Asshetaro's frenzied energy storm before they even approached the center of the battlefield!

- How long will it last?

No one knew that everyone in the light array was doing their best now, and they didn't dare to stop exporting magic power to the wall of light to resist the powerful black sword.

Yes, do your best.

Even Minia, who was mortally wounded, struggled to press her right hand against the wall of light.

Soon, an exhausted priest fell to his knees, followed by the second, and then the third.

However, the Black Sword's offensive showed no signs of weakening at all.

It's over, it's completely over.

Not just little Luca, not just Minia, a look of despair appeared on the faces of every priest - including the highest rank among them, Starlight Givira.

Powerlessness, despair, fear.

For the first time, the originally confident and arrogant priests tasted the horror of defeat and despair.

In the face of such a powerful and crazy force, everyone's heart is filled with despair.

Give up, you can't stop it.

If you start running now, you might be able to escape a few more.

At least it's better than everyone dying here.

Many exhausted priests involuntarily lowered their hands and fell to their knees—

"Everyone, run!" Just when everyone felt desperate and couldn't help but want to give up, little Luca, who had been struggling to support her, rushed forward a few steps and released her magic power for the last time, "Everyone, run away!" While Elise and Luca can still withstand it—take Minia and escape! ”

"Luca!" Minia shouted.

At this moment - "Smack! The wall of light shattered, and the black sword slashed straight down at little Luka wrapped in black mist—

"Just when Luca thought it was finished, suddenly Ashetaro didn't move! Strange, right? Luca I don't know what's going on yet! I saw a golden ball floating in front of Ashetaro from nowhere, and then I heard Sister Givira shouting, 'Chance! Run away, everyone! So Luca flew out with Sister Minia," and after talking about everything that happened last night, little Luca took a sip of the apple juice that Rusya handed her, and then continued, "Later, Elise told Luca, 'That's Brother Lacey,' and Sister Minia said that it was definitely not Ashetaro - but Sister Minia's strange thing is that Brother Race didn't die a long time ago?" Even if Brother Lacey were alive, he wouldn't have such great power—so Luca, I'll come to Sister Rusya, who knows the smell of Brother Lacey's blood, to confirm! Hee-hee! Sure enough, it's Brother Reis, that's right! (To be continued)
