Din no Monshou (WN)

Episode XII: At the End of Ambition

Dragon knights gradually narrowing the siege.

Are you going to forcibly break through?

I immediately seal it with fire magic.

"- Gunfire!"

Direct hit to one.

Is it fire-resistant armor, it doesn't look very effective.

The dragon knights pack their time in fine shape, although no nasty advances have been made.

If it stays like this, it becomes a mess and a riot.

I want to use extensive fire magic - but I instantly checked my back.

"Fuck, don't come... don't come near me!

"... has the private soldier arrived yet?"

The merchants were trembling in a frightened manner.

Seeing the confusion, he doesn't seem to be used to rough things at all.

Sonia has an urgent look, but she hasn't panicked.

Herabellio looks cold at the zepil flying directions in the back,

Zanakov is just scratching cold sweat if his liver is sitting still.

With the exception of those three, almost all the merchant kings had caused confusion in the raid of the Dragon Knight.

Walkins is defending me,

I haven't gotten to the point where I can wipe away the worries of the merchants.

I return my gaze to the Dragon Knights.

- That's tricky.

If fire magic flies, Friendly Fire is guaranteed.

For me, confined spaces are bad minutes, mainly for fire attributes.

I have no choice. Do we have to stop moving and destroy each and every one?

Fortunately, these dragon knights don't seem to be good at magic.

Then I'll clean you up with a magical series of attacks.

"- Bolt Judgment!"

A radial thunderbolt strikes the enemy.

The Dragon Knights tried to avoid it, but it was inevitable because it was dense.

Strike straight without rubbing.

"... guh"

"... giggle"

The enemy at the front stopped the movement.

Now. I pull out the knife and storm a bunch of dragon knights.

With a blow from the horizontal giraffe, he slashed and tore the joint part of the light armor.

"Whoa, whoa!

It screams painfully, leaving defenses empty.

He rolled out a spinning kick there and blew it to hit the dragon knight beside him.

And I will be slaughtered by the next Dragon Knight.

But there was someone here who stopped my blade.

"... you're brave, kid"

A man with a mask and a belligerent voice.

He asks me intrigued while he sneaks at my knife.

"There's an interesting boy - the commander-in-chief was talking about you?

"Come on, you don't know."

Short knife poking my gap and approaching.

I deactivated it with a paring and distance it with a forward kick.

Here, I realize my hands are tingly numb.

It's a heavy blade, not the only one.

As I rubbed my hands, the man in front of me called on the knights.

"- How long have you been standing? Come on," get it done. ""

Dragon knights still unable to act due to my lightning magic effects.

I try to aim there, but once again, a man stands up.

Flashing a knife to get away.

But he's been prevented by an iron coat of arms.

As he was wary of fighting back, the man groaned bossly.

"I don't need dragons or anything to pressure me.

This body, this flesh, will not become a claw fang that will destroy the demon of man - ugh!

At that moment - Paki, there was a noise with Paki.

The man's skin is turning gray and hard.

Bad, Dragoon's pedigree ability?

Chained to the man's activation, the dragon knights around him roared.

"Wow, wow, wow!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

A growl that just doesn't collapse the Great Hall.

To the violence of sound pressure, the sense of equilibrium goes mad.

Some unfamiliar merchants vomited.

Poke this gap and the dragon knight on the other side tries to ambush you.

But Walkins was definitely crushing it there.

"... That's a lot of noise"

I squirm sarcasm with my ears blocked.

If you look, all the dragon knights on the front were activating their racial abilities.

The amount of magic and killing involved is extraordinarily different from earlier.

When the man confirms this, he pulls out the dagger with both hands.

And turned to me, and I gave the order for the assault.

"- This deputy commander-in-chief, continue to Venon"

Now throwaway rampage with no threshold.

Not very much, but not something that can be stopped by physical surgery or gunfire.

I don't know what happened.

"Wow, wow, wow!"

"... ugh!

Within thinking, the Dragon Knight came under attack from three directions.

There's one short knife, two hand-to-hand fists.

Because he is awake, the speed of his swinging blades and fists is not half the same.

"... whoa, whoa, whoa!" Guard Hammer "!

He concentrated his magic on both arms in an impromptu position.

This enhanced magic is compatible with the Sword Trident.

But at the same time, it's the two of us who can do it.

This number was clearly beyond capacity.

"... this, bastard!

I beat one up with all my strength.

A dragon knight that involves the ensuing and blows away.

But backup just springs up from behind.

I don't have a kiri with this.

Do you want to use thunder magic again?

No, there's a high risk of getting avoided, and after activation, it's filled with gaps.

This is a high-ranking fire magic Ignite Hell or

You should at least crush it with crossfire.

But in this room, extensive magic...

"O messenger of the kingdom! I don't care, I don't care!

Here, Herabellio flies a sharp voice.

Seems like you guessed I was confused.

This voice is followed by many words emanating from within the round table.

"Even if you're going to suffer a major burn..."

"In this place, it's better than getting killed by both lizards!

"Come on, get rid of me!

Neutralists together, desperate plea.

Because I'm dealing with it as I step back,

If I noticed, I was retreating as close as I could to the round table.

Here, the merchant king close to my back squeals.

"Avalo was certainly not a good merchant.

I dyed my hands against corruption, and I was flattered by the Empire... and I used others if I wanted to become one. "

A pro-Imperialist merchant king was vomiting a grudge as he trembled.

He was furiously angry when he saw Avalo's remains falling in bloody blood.

"But... but hey!

He wasn't such a bad guy to be killed so miserably!

Sonia wasn't such a bad guy that you were about to be killed by a pro-Imperialist ploy.

That's what they call it.

At first glance, it also sounds like a casual snoring statement within you.

But to this word, the pro-Imperialists snort.

"You're right... I won't forgive you, I won't forgive you, Zepil!

"It's Avalo's vendetta.

If we destroy ourselves, only you will take us on the road!

Regardless of Zepil's anger at betrayal.

I was surprised that there was a merchant king angry at Avalo's death.

I thought they were the ones with no blood or tears.

Maybe Avalo was a pro-Imperialist compromise.

so-called moodmakers.

If that's a tragedy, I guess it's just not calm in the heart.

Zanakov was distorting his face at first sight, too, but he shouted as if he had immediately decided to do so.

"Only Zepil must be destroyed. Take him, messenger of the kingdom!

He told me to use fire magic to sweep Zepil.

It's complicated to be instructed by them, but it doesn't have to be said.

Bear the sword trident as you work out your magic.

But here I hit something with stiff heels.

- There won't be much later, kid.

The deputy commander-in-chief's man tells me coldly.

When I realized it, my back was being pushed against the round table.

Since we can't back down any further, there will be no escape for the downpouring onslaught.

- Sonia.

I gave Sonia a glimpse here.

Then the pro-kingdom faction, including her, immediately shook her head vertically.

Don't worry about it, you want to say.

I answered with a magic trigger.

"Well, on the basis of unanimity..."

Here, the Dragon Knights lagged behind as upset.

You must have noticed the fire magic fluctuations emanating from my body.

"Stupid... you, in such a small place"

"Hatter. Don't loosen your hands."

To this one word, the Dragon Knight strikes again.

But that was a bad idea.

At this moment, the fire magic was activated with a tremendous output.

"- Ignite, hello!

Blast.

A scorching explosion broke out in the heart of a herd of dragon knights.

"Gwwwwwwwwww!"

The Dragoon race is highly resistant to fire magic.

But that's only a story at the general level.

Pour my magic into your forged high-altitude fire magic and you'll be able to build fireworks that will pierce your resistance.

Heavy fire spreads to fill the room.

I make sure there's no Dragon Knight approaching, and I turn to the round table and concentrate my magic.

"... please, water magic"

There's a reason I didn't use the barrier to prevent fire beforehand.

Fire-resistant magic is inherently a barrier to protecting small subjects such as individuals.

If we are forced to extend the effect to spatial units, the intensity will fall extraordinarily.

So much so that even a natural fire breaks down.

Now, when I tried to get Jaildragon Flame on the ship, I was easily crushed.

With the combined fire magic, you won't be able to accept my fire magic.

That is why we switched to ex post measures rather than ex ante measures.

I'll use water magic to extinguish the firemen approaching this round table.

I just hope there's no obstruction on the way in.

The moment I tried to extinguish the fire - a cool voice echoed.

"-Open the door, forget the door."

Behind the round table.

Walkins, sitting on his desk, held his right hand up against the sky.

Chanting with meditation.

An overwhelming display of magic, so wary that when did it accumulate?

Walkins opened his eyes to see if the fire would ever reach the round table.

"Seed fire naki void no ori mari sue geyo.

Its ha fire god ni discarded terraresi oblivion no garden nari - "flame of livion" "

The magic released from her spreads around.

Then a thin membrane wrapped the round table in a dome.

And when the membrane reached the ceiling, it began to cover the entire wall.

Probably a barrier, but I feel the weight of magic as a shine.

"Thank you for waiting.

It was a chant while playing Dragon Knight opponent, so it got a little late "

With that said, Walkins kicks the dragon knight back into the ambush again.

Play the thrown dagger with your bare hands and stick it straight up against the chest of the Dragon Knight, the owner.

After cleaning up one wave, Walkins gently stroked the membrane he had made.

"Inside this barrier, fire magic does not intervene - it is the space where fire magic was taken.

Only fire attributes, but reject ”any fire magic”.

Use fire magic with confidence. "

Apparently, the safety in the round table was kept.

Instead, I was told to use more and more fire magic.

I turn my back while I thank you.

Then there were the dragon knights who regained their position.

I'm trying to unlock my pedigree abilities and storm them with my forged flesh.

A deputy commander-in-chief man has swung up his arms and quietly directed a total attack.

"- Let it fall, in quantity."

"Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!"

"Lyaaaaaaaa!"

I can no longer pull a step back.

If they pull us out of here, we'll reach the merchant's life.

In that case, I...

"- Crossfire"

I was laughing secretly.

Maximize output and activate extensive fire magic.

Turn the area into a sea of fire, creating a sight like a red carpet.

"Gu, you aahhhhhhhhhhh!

One of the dragon knights yelled.

The damage seems immense.

But even in this state, not a single seed fire extends into the round table.

Walkins is just processing the Dragon Knight on the other side.

I no longer worry about the flaws of fire magic.

I fought fire magic as hard as I could.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Gunfire! Crossfire! Astralfire! "

If you build up your attribute proficiency, you will be able to shoot continuously as well as omit chants.

One output at a time will squeeze, but overall destructiveness is naturally high on Dantotsu.

The recoil causes severe pain as if the brain had been hung on a mixer.

But still, I put in the magic.

"Gah, aaaaaaa!

The screams of the dragon knights who were entering the mansion spread.

A subsequent dragon knight was coming down from the empty ceiling of the hole,

The moment this fire was activated, the pittance and reinforcement stopped.

Definitely, he's been hit hard.

"Grr... this flame...!

Here, for the first time, the deputy commander-in-chief man showed a rushed face.

He leads his SS-like men to defend himself. Todome.

"Crush the blow heaven and earth that unleashes.

Falling polar stars, eating up to the nucleus - 'Meteorbreaker' heh!

Fully activate the remaining magic and activate the physical enhancement magic.

Just like my boss, the commander-in-chief of the Windless Dragon Air Force, I'm going to blow the Deputy Commander in front of me with this.

I did everything I could to reach the immobile Deputy Commander on the flaming wall.

Kick around. Shake your fists up.

When I saw the deputy commander-in-chief's man with the defensive posture, I detonated the magic in my right arm.

"Meteo, Breakaaaaaaaaaa!

Blow out the guard and a positive fist reaches your belly as it is.

The Deputy Commander-in-Chief blew up as he heavily zeroed blood from his mouth.

Break through the merchant's walls and land straight near the sandy beach on the back.

Warmed up a little power, but would surely be incapable of combat.

As I was exhaling, I saw signs from behind.

"How dare you... Lord Venon...!

"Die. Yeah, yeah, yeah!

"- Crossfire"

Release the flame in the rear direction and stab a stomach around the SS.

They rolled outside the mall as they were caught in fire.

Seeing this, the dragon knights, who were watching the opportunity to enter, retreat.

"Damn...... what are Duranil's private soldiers doing"

"Didn't you promise to fight together and wipe out the Merchant King...!

"It is first and foremost Lord Venon's rescue. As long as we keep ambushing, we have a winning chance."

With that said, the dragon knights at the front retreated outside the mall.

Is this cleared up?

Some still jump off the ceiling and try to target the Merchant King.

I'm having a hard time jumping into the fire.

But those guys are knocking them out without Walkins shooting them out.

Well, then...

"You're the only one left - Zepil"

I look out for the entrance to this room.

There was a figure of Zepil standing upright without fire.

When he notices me, he exhales quietly.

When I saw how it was, I asked.

"Aren't you hot?

I am highly skilled in fire attributes and therefore resistant.

Besides being an operator, you can choose which firearm is weaker and move the place.

But how about a zepil.

He has a cool face while staying in the place where the fires burn the most.

To my question, Zepil showed his left eye.

"Great eyes.

As long as its fire is magically created, it can be rendered powerless simply by "seeing" "

"Oh... speaking of which, you had that"

One of the seven Demon Eyes that Lord Astina once liked - Demon Eyes.

It's a horrible eye that disarms you just by seeing a state change caused by magic.

It is unmistakable viciousness when it comes to killing magicians.

I ask as I prepare for battle.

"Hey, can I ask you one thing?"

"What is it?

"- Did you kill Sonia's father?

This stuffing is whispered.

I asked him never to sound in the round table.

To my question, Zepil shrugs his shoulder.

And I hung up the edge of my mouth ugly.

"Hit it. Drowning in the history of friendliness,

It was really easy poisoning people who lost their guard. "

"Right..."

Bud's speculation was true.

All this conspiracy came under the direction of the Empire.

Zepil returns to his former land.

The Empire is just to invade another country.

He guided the civil unrest that rocked the Union.

And it was - Sonia - who was the victim of it.

He killed his beloved father and threw himself into a world full of faction struggles.

All the beginnings of her suffering also began with this man named Zepil.

"Zepil. You've been watching this Union for decades, bent over, haven't you?

"Well, I could say so"

"- How was it when you first came to this country?

I asked frankly.

When Zepil had just come to the Union.

I mean, back when there was no shadow of a pro-Imperialist.

Union, which was occupied mostly by established merchant kings, dating from the first generation.

I should have been watching the sight.

To my question, Zepil inexplicably frowns.

"... what do you mean?

"It's easy.

respect each other even with some factions,

I didn't think you'd be planning an assassination or poisoning.

Just unite your powers for the Union,

I enjoy purely ”business” - what did you think when you saw me like that?

The Gildia family leads soldiers and willingly comes to foreign trade.

Astrite family who believe in the gods of other continents and sincerely engage in business.

I'm sure there would have been more of those merchants before Zepil created the pro-Imperial.

I can't help but enjoy doing business, and I don't have the evil of being within my peers.

What did Zepil think when he saw those merchant kings?

"... stupid, stupid. I thought they were fragile, stupid people."

Zepil bites his teeth off with gibberish.

Immediately afterwards, he spit in irritation.

Apparently, he cut his mouth off.

What's the matter, are you upset?

I will continue my pursuit.

"- It's like home on a day of existence. Didn't you think so?

"Well, I don't know what to expect."

Zepil with a dry grin.

It's the boulders that keep their expressions, but I didn't miss the fine tremors.

"In serenity, unaffected by the Empire, he lives as a merchant of the United Nations, remaining a merchant king.

You didn't have a choice like that?

"... no. From the very beginning..."

Zepil answers groaning.

But I could only see stray for a moment.

That would be best understood by the person.

But soon Zepil shook his head to the side.

And he proclaims it to me with a determined eye.

"... what I asked for, it's not here.

Even if it's the same comfort, it's definitely not the Union or anything!

"... I see, I get it"

You were somewhere in your mind, overlapping the Union with your homeland.

And the other thing is that Herabellio's right, persuasion is futile.

It's hardening our intentions.

All we can do is stop.

"It's over, Zepil.

The dreams you gave to the Empire, the future you wanted here. "

And it was Zepil like no other who ended it.

He'll be aware of that, too.

He's conscious, and he's about to take Shura's path.

"It never ends.

Until I set you up and heard the triumph song--

With that said, Zepil released his magic from his entire body.

They kept chanting inside.

Is that the end of the story? I'll take immediate evasive action.

"Sweet - Vally Storm!

Zepil wind magic strikes directly ahead of you avoided.

A sharp pain rushed through my spinal cord.

But it's not unbearable.

I cast physical enhancement magic.

"- Guard hammer!

"You forgot my” eyes, "the messenger of the kingdom!

The moment the magic permeated his whole body, the magic vegetable sprayed away.

The feeling of weakness spreads rapidly, leaving only the feeling of wasting magic.

You disabled my guard hammer.

"You can put out physical strengthening magic as well as fire..."

My nose is screwed and my body is relaxed.

Zepil can't even miss it there.

"Eat it - Shadar Renade"

Wind magic that strikes directly again.

The pain spreads like it sounds to the bottom of the core.

Look at me like that, Zepil fucking laughs.

"First you... pass away"

"- You!

At this moment, I stepped in.

Zepil's face turns to amazement.

I guess I didn't think I could move.

I squeal with all my strength in my fist.

"I'm sorry... it doesn't work at all"

"Hey, what... my magic, the magic of the Empire...!

Surely a coarse magician would have gone down.

But how much magic do you think I've been subjected to?

In addition to Alec's hell training, Walkins' steady magic workout.

Don't think something like that makes sense to me after all this.

"In jail, you apologize to Sonia and your father!

I'm not doing enhancement magic.

But the body you forged in your training with Alec, that's all it takes to become the murder weapon.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

He took the biggest step and slammed a blow all over Zepil's cheek.

The feeling of grinding something hard.

A flash of absolution blew up the zepil and slammed it against the wall.

"... ka, ha"

There's a fight.

After all, the magicians of the Empire have fundamentally weak physical skills.

Bring it into the melee and you can carry it in your favor.

Looking around, the war situation was definitely set.

Walkins had built up enough dragon knights to take down the mountain.

Number of levels of illusion wondering if the ambush was the main one.

In the furious attack, not a single one seemed to let the merchant king get his hands on it.

The merchants are exhaling in relief.

At the same time, the noise of a fierce sword trident disappeared from outside the commercial hall.

And a familiar private army was controlling outside the mall.

These are the private soldiers of each king of merchants headed by the Astright family.

Apparently, he drove out a private army of zepils that were rampaging outside.

that some of them were private soldiers of Zepil who tried to step into the merchant hall,

A private soldier who collapses right on the walls of the mall will show you.

Apparently, Bud was stopping the last intrusion.

The deputy commander-in-chief, the dragon knight, was taken by his companions to retreat, apparently.

Other dragon knights fled in charge of the injured.

I guess you're going back to camp on the dragon in the other division that's keeping you waiting somewhere.

Whether it was a local battle or a total battle, we were able to win.

I relieve fire magic and exhale heavily.

Then Zepil, who was falling, squealed bossly.

"... I shouldn't have been wrong"

He wakes up his torso with his teeth tucked away.

That's pretty tough.

But I'd like to argue a little with the current wording.

"It's not about winning or losing."

"... ho"

To my word, Zepil listens.

Apparently, you don't have the will anymore.

I whispered to Zepil.

"A man who unilaterally steps on the weak is full of weakness, even if he is not mistaken.

That's where your wish didn't come from. "

"... oh, I guess so"

Zepil smiled mockingly.

He stuck his hand in his nose and took out his dagger.

And he let it go in the right place, weakening his whole body.

Dropped the weapon and surrendered completely.

But the momentum in his eyes had not yet diminished.

"Whether you lose or your neck will fly -

As long as I stay alive, I throw myself into sorrow. Throw it, show it. "

"Whatever you want."

Is that a recidivism declaration?

It will be difficult to get this done without charge.

As soon as we escaped from surveillance, we should definitely try to do the same thing.

Zepil shrugged, conscious of this alert.

"If you punish me, punish me. Take it spoiled."

With this, an end is struck by the noise of the Merchant King's Council.

For a moment I thought so, my voice suddenly flew from the side.

"Kaka, kaka, kaka!

Voices like broken speakers.

But it was the voice that came out through the vocal cords of nature's creatures.

Turning briefly, a large bird stopped at the edge of the window.

Blackened feathers like crows.

But nearly half of the flesh was covered with machine-like iron plates.

The bird asks funny.

"End ka? - Enough, Ka, Zepil?

"... you are. No... you are."

Zepil looked at the bird with surprised eyes.

In contrast, the bird speaks quietly to stir.

"Kakah. Good luck, Zepil. It's more than I expected."

In one word, I got a guess.

This is the man who was giving instructions to Zepil in the Empire.

I guess I'm using a warcraft or something to turn it into a demon and fly it here.

"It was a feat, a masterpiece, that brought the king here."

"Yes. Now... will you rebuild my hometown?

Zepil makes a soothing voice.

As the story goes, he still seemed to have a deal with the Empire.

Zepil exhaled heavily and spoke to the strange bird.

"I will end up as a sinner... but only that hometown and my parents' tomb -"

After all, evil is so true that Zepil thought of his homeland and his parents.

In response to a final plea, the person who appears to be an Imperial Executive...

"Oh. We've burned it down, haven't we?

"Heh...!?

I let go of a nasty word.

Zepil glances at the words of the strange bird.

He seems to be trying to say something, but he can't talk with his throat drawn.

Such a strange bird told him cruelly.

"I think there's no use developing worthless cities, Ca?

I burned them down beautifully and let them use the ashes effectively. "

"Ki, you aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Zepil exclaimed as he spit blood.

Then, at that moment, the mechanical part of the bird glowed suspiciously.

"Kakakaka, you proclaimed you liked business.

Then you should encourage as many merchants as you like - in the afterlife. "

Various magic vegetables emitted from the eyes of strange birds.

It became a dos black ray and pierced the heart of the zepil.

Seeing him fall apart, the strange bird groaned like a mockery.

Thirty years. Thank you for living to be my nourishment - bitch Zepil. "
