Haroon

"Attack on Hegen Castle"

People woke up like the dawn. The battle was imminent, so he couldn't have slept well, but his fatigue from the vigilante recovered somewhat.

Harun briefly had breakfast and told me about his scouting of Hagen Castle and what he had heard from Palon. The eyes of the imperial people, including the great Illum, intensified.

“Then?”

Harun nods.

“That's right. The workers at Hagen Castle are some of the missing and soldiers. Were the guards knights and wizards killed or kneaded at the time of the incident? They say they were dragged somewhere. ”

I don't know, but the knights were probably already refined to dark knight by the state, so I didn't have to say anything.

“Finally!”

Illum clenches his fist. One imperial quest is about to be resolved.

“Attack time is one hour from now. As Faylon has instructed, we should attack on time for dinner. Missing persons enter their own homes for meals, so they may avoid sacrifices and remain vigilant to their enemies. ”

Harun's words tilt her head.

“But isn't it too bright for a raid? ”

The opposing Pokémon have more than doubled their numbers, but it's hard to understand since they attack from this side.

“It's time for the Black Wizards to take a hard nap, so just a few things will help our side in this battle. ”

“Ah!”

I didn't think about the existence of the Black Wizard.

“First, we must dismantle the Black Magic Bandits that lie around the castle. I know roughly where Manasik is buried, which serves as the center of the sorcery faction, so I want you to take care of this. Then escort one of your men to the quarantine. ”

“I understand, commander. ”

Serpa replied with a confident expression.

Harun makes eye contact with Taniella and Mirus, and the imperial wizard Bernhard and Molbot.

“The four of you ask for magic to slow down the Black Wizards' involvement in the attack. Not for sure, but according to Palon, the black wizard, Hegen, who rules there, is Madosa of the Six Circles. He must not give time to use magic. Donnes and Marie will strike with a wire when you cast your magic. ”

“Our imperial quest took place, so we'll do our best. Let's discuss the most effective combination of waking up black wizards that can do the most damage. ”

Bernhard clenches his fist and expressing his strong will.

“Lord Dylan, Lord Illum is the fastest and most devastating of all, so you must crush your enemies. And when the Black Wizards wake up and come out, please take care of them. With your error blades, five circles of magic attack shouldn't be too difficult. ”

“I understand. Leave it to me. ”

“I'll do my best! ”

Dylan and Illum were so excited to finally be able to reveal their true colors.

“The paladins, together with the three priests, enter to the right of the castle. We're going to go left. Please deal with the undead, you and the saint. The ones to the left of the undead, hidden in a secret space behind the wall, I took care of them at dawn, so the only thing you need to do is the right. Without the Black Wizards' control, their actions will be slow, so it shouldn't be difficult to deal with them. I hope Lord Mills and Lord Town will protect you and the saint. ”

“I understand.”

The saint nodded on behalf of the priests, and the two knights were happy to finally be able to wield the sword properly.

“Hahaha! Hundreds of undead are no problem at all. We'll be with you shortly. ”

“Thank you."

Now we have a rough plan. It is completed based on the words of the Imperial Captain Palon, and there will be no great error.

“Commander, what are you going to do about it, or not? ”

It's Durbone. She's been talking back and forth with the rest of the Aka. She's been learning a lot of Mandarin from Dylan and Tino lately.

“The black wizards' tamed horses are Brohl, Ramby and Sloque, but the number is less than a hundred. Luckily, Iconlard took care of everything. If you can intercept the Black Wizards properly, you won't have to worry about magic. ”

I said that, but I couldn't be sure. Not all the Black Wizards are sleeping. But Harun believed Palon's words.

‘If the horses are flying, we should ask Mino and Sunny. ’

Thinking about it, I was so distracted that I couldn't even see the results of their scouting. The head cams on their necks haven't been recovered yet.

After a meal, the group takes time to prepare for battle, keeping their bodies and minds in optimum condition.

Harun trimmed the rainbows and daggers, then prepared the potions in his inventory for use. The wizards are busy memorizing attack magic spells in advance to reduce casting time, and the warriors are meticulously equipped with their weapons and defense gear.

After finishing preparing, Harun approached the holy woman. She finished her prayers before the saints and pilgrims.

“Are you sure you want to do this?”

“Sure, no problem. ”

“Don't you need the Holy Grail? ”

“No, it's okay. The Awakening of the Son has increased the sacred power of all priests by more than twice. Although the undead here have stars, we can handle them at their current Divine Power level. ”

“I'm glad.”

Harun glances at the saint who is still zealous for prayer. The body of the slimy, ear-ripped saint had an untouchable holy and noble aura.

Harun encourages the crew to prepare for their departure by tapping them on the shoulders. Fortunately, no one looked scared or worried. Even Remy and Henny.

“Don't overdo it, you two. Just follow behind. Treat the wounded without delay. ”

“Hehe! Don't worry, commander. I'm training with a training sword every day. ”

“Me, too. Don't worry, I can harness the power of a beast in a hurry." ”

“Anyway, be careful. The men in battle are important, but the two healers are more important than anyone else. ”

At Harun's words, the two of them clenched their little fists with a proud face.

Harun takes another step, and sees Donnes talking to a nervous Marie. When the two of them approached Harun, they gave a funeral.

“The role of two people is very important. Don't even think about going into combat. You should shoot when the Black Wizards wake up while you're in the middle of the castle and are sitting in plain sight. ”

“I was thinking the same thing. Most importantly, it's important to defeat the Black Wizards. The Mados are going to make a magical attack, so there will be plenty of chances. ”

I was relieved to see Donaes knowing what to do without saying anything.

“Marie, don't worry too much! Black wizards who can't use magic aren't that hard to deal with. ”

“Got it.”

Marie tries to relax with a Federation deep breath.

When the Horsemen of the Tower left to dismantle the Black Magic Party, Harun asked Bertrand Vik to scout the area to see if there were any horses nearby. Minos and Sunni from high above the castle indicated that everything was fine.

- Disgusting meat is far from those humans.

- Some of them are nearby, but they're sleeping.

Thank God. If the horses were near Manassek, we'd need more men.

It's finally time.

Ding, ding! Ding!

You hear a bell in the castle. It was an announcement of meal time.

The heavy atmosphere, which felt like a thin fog around the castle, began to disappear. The dark magic signature's dark energy is rapidly dissipating. Serpa and the Madosophers are digging for Manaseok.

Harun raises his hand. Now we just have to wait for the people who were working to get back to their homes.

The people watching Harun's hands rush out of the forest as they fall down. People ran in droves to do their job.

Harun, who was running at a rapid pace, saw dozens of slopes rushing from beneath the wall. They were the ones who said Mino and Sunny were sleeping.

It is very threatening to see them rushing quickly with sharp teeth.

Harun's face distorts in the swarm of the slouch. There is no choice but to stop some of the group from taking on them, and then the raid will go back to failure.

However, Harun suddenly came up with a good idea.

- Mino, Sunny, take care of them!

- I thought you were asleep.

- This is gonna be fun!

Harun flies over the forest, fearful of the company's will. Minos and Sunnies shoot down at the horses. They were already nearby. I called him just in case, but I didn't know if this would help.

Minos and Sunni, who folded their wings and plunged them into the water, spread out their huge wings and smashed their fingernails into the water just before they hit the ground.

Queek!

A large calf resembles a leopard, but two black sloaks are kicked under the steel-like claws of the Virtuous Beaks and fly away with screams.

Kung! Kung!

A long time later, the sloaks' skulls are crushed grotesquely. It was instantaneous. That was the beginning. Mino and Sunni flew over 10 meters with their powerful wings and claws, then plummeted and attacked the sloths.

The sloaks kicked by Mino and Sunny's claws turned bloody with grief. The flesh had fallen out of the gap and broken bones. They were so powerful.

Harun's group panics, ignoring the slopes that are distracted by the humans approaching them.

Harun leaps over the low left wall. A five-metre wide guard stands on top of it.

“I……. ”

The guard, who was about to scream when he found Harun, falls down, grabbing his neck. A dagger was inserted into his neck, wrapped in a black hard leather. The border guards, which were placed about 10 meters apart, spread widely at 20 meters because of the meal time.

Every time the dagger leaves Harun's hand, running along the wall, the guards begin to fall. There was no border guard standing on the wall that was already under construction when he and his crew crossed the mid-wall two metres high.

Harun dives into a place where all the other walls go up and build a watchtower for ranged attacks and reconnaissance.

“Who are you?”

One of the guards, who was guarding the bay watchtower, found him and yelled, and the other two showed up there. It looked like the guards were gathering to take turns or talk about something.

Shhh! Shhh! Heave!

Three daggers shoot out at them like lightning.

“Kuaak!”

“Hehe!”

“Huff! Hostile! ”

They were struck by a dagger in the forehead and neck, and fell with the steed's screams, but one lucky enough to climb up the horn of the neck and accidentally be struck by the dagger in his forearm to survive.

Beep, beep, beep! Beep, beep, beep!

Land, land! Land, land!

At that moment, the bell starts to ring rapidly, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound.

‘The paladins have been exposed. Has he gone inside yet? ’

I was curious about your situation, but it was no longer my concern. Alerts will be gathering soon. I had to reduce one more number.

Harun, who took out the wreck, raises Mana. Immediately, his body flew like a shield and stabbed the throat of a whistleblower.

“Shhh!”

Harun turns his eyes upside down and starts running along the wall as soon as he recovers the smash from the dying guard's neck.

There were not many of them, one for each of the lookouts going up to the 30-meter interval.

Oh, shit!

“Hehe!”

Harun stacks up his body so badly that he can't hide himself, he smashes the guards on the 10,000 tower with a dagger and moves at a speed that can run fast.

Harun's daggers and arrows flew in because he could see Harun approaching even with his naked eye, and two or three joined forces to crowd him. However, Harun stopped them with no force and moved around crushing the guards.

There were several warriors of Expert rank in the middle, but Harun was not a frequent opponent of the Sword Master Dylan or of the Aka, who used the power of the Shamans, in close combat.

Above all, they were unable to keep up with Harun's pace. Harun's body, coupled with Rambi's strength, was still fast enough to resist the dagger or crushing point.

Harun has been in a state of focus for a long time. His senses are sensitive enough to feel even the breath of the opponent. He can feel the blood vessels and muscle movements of the opponent stabbed and slashed.

“Captain Harun! ”

I must have circled the castle half the time. It has come to my attention that a saint and a saint are fighting skeleton knights from both sides with Mills Red and Town.

Due to the abundance of shattered and melted bones in the walls and underside, a fierce workshop appeared, and three temples and paladins entered the castle.

But the situation was not good. The Skeleton Soldiers have been dealt with, but the Knights are still in a frenzy, so even the two knights receiving the Holy Buffer of the Saint and the Holy Spirit are struggling to stop the aggression, and they have not been dealt with.

“You bastards!”

Harun screams and the four Skeleton Knights on Harun's side turn to him.

If I hadn't noticed my movements until Skeleton Knight came this close to haunting the living, it wouldn't be normal. ’

The Skeleton Knights start swinging their weapons frantically as if they were terrified of him. It may not be certain, but it could be because the Summoner was out of control.

Harun rushes at them, injecting a few moments of Mana into the Sword of Smash. The instantaneous condensation of large amounts of Mana condenses into the swords, and Harun swings the smash.

“Dispulsion!”

Vigorous light erupts from the crack of the blade. Fragments fly forward as if they were shattered into pieces.

Boom, boom!

Jiji Jiji!

Four frenzied Skeleton Knights hold a weapon with a subtle blackbird glow that shatters in an instant with no screams.

‘It's a lot of Mana, but it's worth the use of this sword as I grow up. ’

Harun is satisfied with his long-standing dissipation sword, and again he focuses on smashing and injects a large amount. The essence of a dissipation sword that unfolds into Mana is to condense as much as possible while separating Mana from the unit to be converted into error, and then burst through the machete or the machete at one moment.

Harun has been recognized by Dylan to outrank the Expert intermediate class, but it is beyond that time that he deals with Mana in detail. Harun leaps over the group's head and lands as soon as he reaches for the Skeleton Knights in the other direction, he deflects again.

Boom, boom!

Jiji Jiji!

When condensed and shot through the blade, the pieces quickly crushed six Skeleton Knights. Unlike the wounded and wounded human soldiers, Skeleton Knights' bones are shattered.

The group opens their mouths and vomits a small elasticity. In the blink of an eye, it was hard to believe Harun's ability to defeat the Skeleton Knights that were difficult to deal with even those with Divine Power.

“Let's go inside the castle! ”

Harun's words woke her up.

“Yes.”

Harun jumps up and down the wall instead of moving. The rest of the soldiers on the wall will probably be sent into the castle with only a few men left due to the city's need, so there's no reason to deal with them here.

There was no road to the center of the castle. You see the warriors whose livers have died, but their discoloration is all black.

“The corpse is disappearing! ”

When the voice of the saint comes from behind, she stops and turns around, and the corpse that was stabbed by the sword turns into light sand and is scattered into the atmosphere.

Are they? ’

It's shocking. I suspect many of the Black Wizards are foreigners belonging to the Darkness, but even the common warriors are foreigners.

A few items were dropped on the spot where the bodies disappeared without a trace of blood, proving that they were foreigners.

They're drawing in the users and raising their power rapidly! ’

What are you looking for? Glory Gaia, though, is trying to build her own realm in Beyond. If I didn't plan something big, I wouldn't involve ordinary users like this.

It's not the time to think of a question like that. There will be heavy fighting in the middle of the castle. As Harun starts running again, the Saint's companion pushes her down.

Chaen! Kick!

“Die!”

“Die! ”

“Khhh!”

“Aah!”

As we get closer to the center of the castle, the sound of weapons clashing, screaming, and a fierce shout starts to louder. Harun and her group speed up their movements.

At last, Harun, who has passed through a narrow, dense residential area, can see the battles raging around a giant square horned building. The rations on the second floor are all messed up and there are blood everywhere and corpses everywhere.

‘The raid was a success. ’

Harun's falcon leaves no sign of his crew or the bodies of the paladins. Only a few people were injured and only saw Remy and Heny getting treated and grabbing their weapons again.

“Holy woman, please prepare the sacred magic. ”

“Of course. Bring in the saints, the priests. ”

Saint Ye 'im ran to the synagogues who were behind the paladins, being protected by three people and giving them a holy buffer.

Harun's gaze is fiercely directed at the crew fighting the enemies. The ambush tomb was already gone, but the crew fought beautifully. It was never defeated by the warriors of the Expert class who pulled out the sword.

The most obvious of them were Dylan and Illum. They swung their swords as if they were determined to, but there was no one to stop them.

The orb-encased dagger shatters the body along with the opponent's weapon, while Dylan thrashes and avoids the opponent's weapon, stabbing or slashing the opponent's urethra. I don't know if they did it or not, but there were less than twenty of them left.

Harun's worrying gaze now leads to a giant square horn-shaped building.

The Black Wizards are the problem! ’

With all the screaming and screaming, it was clear that almost all the Black Wizards woke up, no matter how hard they fell asleep.

Where are you?

As Harun's fierce eyes peer through the building, several doors on the first floor open in succession and a group of people pour out. They were the dark wizards just coming out. As Harun makes his move, he hears a strong crack in his ear.

Slug! Slug!

Donnes and Marie blew it up.

Turning around, you see Donnes and Marie climbing onto the rooftop of a building adjacent to the square and drawing a frenzied protest.

“Caemun!”

“Huff!”

The Black Wizards who came out of the door were in a hurry, unaware of the situation, and were collapsing before being attacked by an unexpected iron rod.

However, the Black Wizards who noticed the incident in the scene that was just opened outside the door reacted with either defensive magic or Blink magic.

“Shield!"

Blink!

Despite the exhaustion of the error, it was hard for a wizard with more than four circles to make up his mind and perform magic, causing a fatal blow.

Harun runs through the battlefield and summons Dylan and Illum.

“Sir Dylan! Lord Illum!”

The two of them left the battlefield without delay and ran to the building. The body of two sod masters intercepts the Black Wizards as if they were doing a Blink spell.

“Ph…… caviar! ”

Even if you have to memorize it, don't give me time to say it unless I have to say it.

Harun's body, once again powered up by Ramby, moves like a ghost and smashes into the dark wizards' bloodstream and throws a scepter.

“Blink! Dark hand……. ”

Oh, shit!

“Hehe!”

“Hey, that's why you need to take a good look! ”

Dylan blinks away the wreck Harun just wielded and slashes the Black Wizard's side in an attempt to conjure it up.

From then on, Harun leads the attack, and Dylan and Illum begin dealing with those who had escaped Harun's attack in a fortuitous manner.

That wasn't all. The Black Wizards, who had dodged quite a long distance, died without hesitation to cast the right magic on the incoming Donnays and Marie's iron attacks. Suddenly, their flying arrows turn into thin, short iron bars.

“Come to Ziggurat! ”

“Summon the Undead! ”

Nine black wizards came out of the fourth-floor door when it opened, shouting in Mana. At that sound, fewer warriors and black wizards head for the building.

What a nuisance! ’

If you go inside without knowing what's inside the building, it becomes more difficult to deal with. So far, we have not suffered much damage, but it will be different from now on. We don't know what kind of magic the Black Wizards will use.

It was then.

“Holly Power! ”

As soon as the voice of the holy woman resounded, a whirlwind of light fell down from the sky into a building they called Ziggurat.

Hwa-oh!

The moment the pillar of light collided with the spire of the building, the dazzling light surrounded and flowed over the building with a sound of flames spreading everywhere.

Turning around, the saints, saints and three synagogues were praying with the paladins, and a dazzling glow appeared from their bodies like a huge lump of light.

The effects of divine magic were enormous.

“Aah!”

“Kaaak! My eyes! I can't see! ”

The Black Wizards and Warriors who entered the building, avoiding the attack, rush out again screaming. An overwhelming sacred force was flowing through the entire building like electricity.

“Now! Attack! ”

Along with the sound of Tino, the troops flock to the warriors and the Black Wizards, rushing out in unison.

Dylan and Illum's sword, which moved faster than the others, quickly blew the heads off of a few struggling black wizards. Then he ran like he was flying towards the ramp going up.

“Don't panic, drink the dark water quickly! ”

“Unleash Anti-Holly Magic! ”

“Get rid of the priests! ”

While those who were standing on the fourth floor were screaming and trying to clear the turbulence, they released the magic prepared by the Magos.

“Range Mist! ”

“Giga chain lightning! ”

“Lightning bolts! ”

“Sunder Lightning! ”

The magic cast by the four masters was with the Black Wizards on the fourth floor who were shocked by the sacred magic.

In an instant, more than three floors of fog swept through the fog, and the electrostatic magic flowing with a frightening concussion dug in. The electrostatic magic rapidly expands through the mist.

“Kaaak!”

“Grrrgh!”

“Shield! Blink! ”

“Mega Shield! ”

“Fly!”

The electric shock caused the fog covering more than three floors of the building to quickly disappear like a sacred force.

Peek-a-boo!

In the fog, four Black Wizards fell to the floor directly under electrostatic magic. Tino, Town, and Millthread, who had been waiting in advance, quickly took their breath away.

“Grr!”

Once more, with another scream, two Black Wizards fall to the ground.

Fly magically soared into the sky and was attacked by Donnes and Marie's Iron Fist. They were saved without needing to use their hands.

On the fourth floor where the fog disappeared, there were three Black Wizards left. They are skilled enough to ward off electrostatic magic, but not completely avoiding them. They are covered in clothing and hair.

Get it!

Harun's body bounces off the ground with a messenger jumping skill.

The moment the eyes of the three black wizards saw Harun soaring to the height of their eyes, Harun's left hand moved like lightning.

- Please!

- Leave it to me!

- I don't like him feeling weird. Cheers!

Phoenix arrives at the face of the Black Wizards with the dagger of flames and the Blitz Dagger thrown willingly.

“Huff! Blink! ”

Surprised Black Wizards cast Blink Magic at the dawn of time, but the three scalpels changed their trajectory as if they were alive.

“The Dark Shield! ”

Boom!

“Huff! Blink! ”

After escaping with the Blink, the Black Wizards who saw the Flying Secrets fly again were stunned by the sudden burst of shields and the rush of incoming Secrets.

“Blink! Blink! ”

I tried to open the blinks in succession, but unfortunately there were limited directions where they could move. They were on four floors above the ground, and that was the height of a giant giant, four meters. There were constraints because they were able to move to the air.

“Huff!”

Then one of the three falls down to the iron bars between Donnes and Marie.

“You!”

Dylan's aura blade breaks through the shield and instantly splits the Black Witch in half. He could not scream. That's where Dylan just got to the slope. The rapidly unfolding shield enchantment could not handle the error blades made by the Sword Master.

The Black Wizard, presumed to be Hegen, relentlessly unfolded the Blink Magic with no need for any other magic, but turned off the movable defenses of the three masters and finally gave himself over to the Predator.

“Knng! Rrrrgh! ”

When a large amount of current is discharged from the Blitz Dagger in his forearm, his body instantly bursts into flames. Although he did not die easily as a tall black magician, the dark scepter in his chest subsequently began to suck the blood out of his veins, and eventually he convulsed, revealing his white figure.

“If I look again, I can't adapt. I think the Screamer is still alive. ”

Illum looks frightened to see the twitching corpse of the Black Wizard with a concussion. I was frustrated when I imagined myself being attacked by these living bastards.

After a moment, the three scalpels that looked so clean doubtfully embedded in the human body flew back towards Harun who landed on the ground.

Ilum shakes her head with bored eyes, watching the guards stab into the memorization belt on their own as if they were returning home.

“He never wanted to face the enemy! ”

The Black Wizards temporarily struck three large barracks in front of a huge building called Ziggurat. The two are for the injured. Remy and Henny take care of them. Harun hears reports of Tino returning from the battlefield with a few injured men in one of the barracks.

“Hm. So the rest of the soldiers just disappeared. ”

Harun was once again convinced of Tino's report. That those soldiers were foreigners. Otherwise, it won't disappear without a trace.

“Nearly all of the warriors we defeated and a large number of the Black Wizards soon after their deaths, some of their belongings were left behind and disappeared. Strangers, as I suspected before. And the mercenaries said that killing the pagans who committed evil will strangely improve their skills, not only remarkably, but soon after they die, they will leave precious things behind and disappear. ”

“Is that so?"

It was a rumor that he had improved.

"So killing a stranger will increase your experience level?" ’

“That's why some mercenaries are even pursuing the bounty on foreign nationals. It's natural to be better at brutal combat, but it's obvious when you're dealing with strangers. So some people say it's a gift from God who has allowed foreigners to come into this world. ”

Now, most of the people here are foreigners, and everyone knows that. It's just that they belong to an organization called the Darkness, and why they built these castles still hasn't been solved.

“So, how are you guys doing? ”

“The temple was filled with so much energy that everyone got there and prayed and meditated. We made the full-bodied crew protect them. ”

“How's the crew injury? ”

Fortunately, I did not slumber because I had already confirmed that there was not even one dead person.

“The inexperienced couches and Rakum have suffered serious injuries, but the rapid healing and potions of Lemi and Heny have made a great progress. We should be able to move in a few days. Twelve small wounded men, including a Town Knight from the Imperial Court, will soon recover as long as they are not that serious. ”

It was fortunate enough to deal with a horde of warriors of the Expert rank. It was all thanks to the presence of priests, Dylan, Illum, and the two sod masters who enhanced their abilities through the buffer.

“Thank you all so much. Commander Tino has suffered more than anyone. ”

Tino was in command of the paladins and crew during the raid. Tino gave timely instructions in the middle of a firefight to effectively deal with the warriors gathered at the first ration station.

“Oh, no. ”

Tino shakes his head, blushing at Harun's compliment, but those who favor Dylan look up to him with their thumbs.

“What is the status of the people in the castle? ”

“I'm afraid I won't come out. When I organized it later, I called it up and let it go to explain the situation. ”

“Well done. And please find someone named Palon." This operation was successful because of his information. ”

“I understand.”

When the name Palon appeared, light flashed from Illum's eyes. Harun too, but he was also the one who must meet.

“What about the moon? ”

“I gathered all the loot and put it in a magical backpack, roughly organizing all the children. ”

“Well done. We've had a successful battle, so we need to distribute the loot fairly to everyone. ”

Harun says there is an unseen glow of joy in his crew's eyes. I looked at the collected items and there were quite a few things to use.

“By the way, we need to get some Mado warriors from outside the castle, but the arena won't be easy, so go. ”

“Of course I'm going. ”

Tino doesn't even wipe off the blood properly, but he rushes out of the barracks.
