Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

“Go to hell! ”

“Huff!”

Bermurk pulls back, once more frightened. I clearly saw Lycaen stretch out very slowly, and at some point he was pushing a spear out of his chest.

Jiaying!

The tabernacle of the soul, once again protected by the spear of Lycaen, taps into it. But the result was the exact opposite.

“Knng!”

Despite the obvious blockage, the shocks seemed to shake all over my body.

“Oh, how! ”

A colourful vermouth rushes up into the air. He instinctively realized that standing on the ground and fighting was greatly disadvantageous.

However, Rikkien answered Vermook's question aloud, expressing that it had nothing to do with anything like that.

“It's called a bloodbath! ”

As she screams, Lycaien reappears suddenly once more in Vermouth's arms, floating in the air.

“Ahhhh!”

Bermurk battles hard and tries his best to stop Lycaen from attacking him.

“Suck!”

And at that moment, Bermurk breathed a whimsical sensation I had never felt before.

“What the hell is this?! ”

When I condensed the souls and blocked Licayen's spear, I felt the souls holding them at my fingertips slip away.

But Lycaen no longer answered kindly.

“You don't have to know! ”

I held out my cage, whispering like a pill.

"Whom should I thank for this? ’

It was at the time of the battle with Crohan that Lycaen realized that even spirituality could spread bloodshed. It was then that I realized by stopping Crohan's attack, which was fueled by enormous pressure.

“You're really gonna die today! ”

Lycaen wields his spear in his arms.

“Is this really working? ”

Caith tilts his head with a strange look like the man behind him. The thought that came to his mind was the same as the question he had just asked.

‘Will it really work? With this?’

What Caith said was something other than a giant rock. To be precise, it was a large rock on top of the hole where a tremendous force drew people. Huge enough to completely cover the hole.

In other words, it looked like the lid was covered.

Just a few minutes ago, Caith and Friella were crouching side-by-side, looking for a hole that no longer attracts people. Suddenly, Tehaz asked Caith to remove this rock and cover the hole.

Oh, shit!

Caith sighs a sudden burst of fire in front of his eyes.

“Oh, why! ”

“You, of all people, should know that. ”

“But it's so simple, it's ridiculous! ”

“Then think about it quietly. ”

“What?”

“When people were being dragged into that hole, were trees and rocks being sucked in together? ”

“Hmm?"

Caith scrambles his memory in a hurry.

“Huh? Now that I see it! ”

I saw people flying powerlessly into the holes as if they were leaves blown by the wind. However, the stone, right next to the hole, is holding steady.

“It might actually work……. ”

“It might work. ”

“Huh? Oh, maybe? ”

“Then how can you be sure I've never seen you before? ”

“Tsk!”

“We've blocked all ten holes, so we'll just have to wait and see. We've got everyone around us retreating, so at least he won't have to regain his strength. ”

“Then we'll have to stay away from each other for a while.... Knng!”

Caith coughs and starts using the dragon as if it were a saretra. A sudden burst of horrific energy rises from the hole you just plugged into the rock, and a huge pressure pushes you toward the hole.

“Rrrrgh!”

You scream and give yourself strength. However, the rest of Caith's body, once too close to the opening, is pushed relentlessly toward the opening.

“Hey! What do I do with this?" ”

Caith shouts. But no one answered his question.

"Did you get sucked in already?" ’

Caith feels goosebumps all over his body and gives himself strength. But the pressure was too heavy.

Chop, chop!

Caith's body lunges straight for the rock.

“Grrrgh!”

Caith screams and struggles with the piercing shock.

“Hmm!"

Then suddenly I realized something.

“Oh, oh! ”

Even though his body was attached to the rock that covered the hole, it didn't get sucked into the hole.

I also learned why Tehaz and Friella were unable to answer.

It was because I was knocked unconscious when I hit a rock pushed too hard.

“Kuhahaha, that's it! ”

Kaith bursts into the Great Hall, his back plate clinging to the rocks.

“Khhh, I'm supposed to kill all of you on this mountain, but I think I've got enough of you!" ”

Bermurk shouts excitedly, with his body so high that Lycaen can't jump.

This technique, which destroyed the Byron Kingdom in the past, was called "regeneration."

It was a technique intended to absorb the souls of humans and transform them into pure power.

But the result was a failure. It even sucked the souls of humans, but it did not change with the power of the caster, so it flowed backwards and erupted onto the ground. And the result was the fall of Byron.

People lost both their bodies and their souls, the buildings on the ground became dust, and the land that was close to the wasteland but could be farmed by royal family efforts became a desert.

And Kleimer's name, "Regeneration," was studied and developed in a completely different direction, keeping it intact. Instead of turning the human soul into its own power, it was transformed into a technique that used its own power to destroy where it wanted.

And after years of research and repeated failures, "regeneration" finally became the perfect one. It was a technique that was easily and completely controllable that could shock the caster as much as it wanted. However, the discomfort that such a human soul had to be an ingredient remained.

Bermurk never intended to use this technique in the first place. But the moment the Duke of Goron appeared, he changed his mind.

It was because he and his troops had a role to draw Lycaen's attention. He didn't want to waste 15,000 of his troops moving like a foot.

But the plan didn't work out. Lycaen wiped out the Duke of Goron's army with only 200 knights.

And Vermouth, who confirmed it, changed his mind without hesitation. He fixed his mind that he just needed to get rid of Lycaen and his troops using his troops, not Lycaen's troops.
