Chapter 191

Translated by SoundDestiny Edited by SoundDestiny

“Sacrifice to our Queen. Return to the dust……Raidorl Zain, hero of the holy sword!”

Ruluve transformed into the “Giant with a hundred eyes” in front of him. Her eyes that were attached here and there to the giant body of about ten metres in height shone bewitchingly.

The magic power concentrates in her eyes. Goosebumps broke out on Raidorl’s spine.

“Run! Keep your distance from that giant!”

Raidorl shouts to the soldiers around him. But……a moment later, a monstrous ray of purple light shot out from Ruluve’s full-body eyes.

“Guwaaaaa!?”

“Ku…!”

A monstrous ray of light that shoots out 360 degrees all around.

Raidorl defended it by holding his holy sword, but the soldier who was shot through without being able to avoid,screams.

The soldier who had been hit by the monstrous rays was quickly transformed into a pillar of salt, which soon shattered and dissolved into the wind.

Raidorl’s face shock at the death of his men, and he points the tip of his sword at the hundred-eyed giant.

“Now, you’ve done it…..! I’ll deal with her. You guys get off the battlefield now!”

As soon as Ruluve transforms, all the undead she had been leading falls to the ground. She must have lost the power to control the undead because they were drained of their magic power to become giants. The hordes of the undead had disappeared from the battlefield.

Then……one Raidorl is enough from here on. The only thing to do is to lower the number of soldiers and try to avoid unnecessary casualties in the fight.

“Isn’t it always the hero who takes on the monster?　I’ll be your opponent, so come and get me!”

“Arrogant and confident. That’s what’s so unpleasant about being royalty…..with that man! If you want to die, I’ll give you what you want!”

Ruluve turns all her hundred eyes on Raidorl. A myriad of monstrous rays of light are emitted and rain down on him.

“Hmph!”

Raidorl kicked the ground, dodging the monstrous rays of light that are fired at him one after the other, and those that cannot be avoided are struck down with the Dáinsleif.

The monstrous rays of light emitted by the 100-eyed giant were lightning fast. But after the battle with Granard equipped with the magic sword of light, Raidorl was able to adapt to its speed.

“Sword fighting-Scorpion thrust!”

Raidorl made a counterattack through the gap with melee. He flew his miasma blade and slashed at them from afar.

Like a snake feeding on its prey, the jet-black slash cut through the giant body of Ruluve, dodging the purple beam of light.

“That hurts……Don’t you dare get carried away!”

One of her eyeballs was slashed open, and her pale bodily fluids splattered like fresh blood. But for Ruluve, who is now a giant, the damage is only a scratch.

Rulive seems to have a great capacity for healing.  Her wounds heal like time is turned backwards, and even a crushed eye regrows.

Raidorl clicks his tongue loudly at Ruluve, who immediately fires back a monster ray of light.

“……It seems that a wound of that degree will not pierce your life. She’s a lot better than those demons.”

The hundred-eyed giant concentrates its magical power of ten thousand undead. Its strength surpasses that of a disaster-grade demon. If it’s only about strength, it might even rival the monsters of the “dragon kind”.

These giants alone could easily destroy a town or two. Raidorl need to make sure he defeats her here.

“It’s hard to beat her at long range. If I could, I’d get in its blindspot and slash it…….”

“Ooooooooooooooo”

“Those rays of light from her evil eye won’t allow me to get close! Quite a troublesome foe, isn’t she!”

Raidorl runs right and left across the battlefield, dodging the monstrous rays of light that are chasing him.

Each of these rays of light contains a magical power that turns humans into salt and makes them disappear. By its nature, it is close to the miasma of Dáinsleif, which causes abnormal conditions, but…the killing ability is clearly superior. Even a scratch would kill him.

“It is impossible to inflict a fatal wound on a giant with a small, low-powered move. But there’s no time for big moves…..!”

“Ooooooooooooooo”

There is almost no time lag in the activation of the monster ray.

In order to perform large-scale techniques such as “The Great Serpent of Doom”, it is necessary to knead the magic power “accumulation”. It is very difficult to make a big move through the gap between these attacks.

If there is an exception, it is……the holy armour that is the inner workings of the holy sword Dáinsleif [Hvezlung, The twilight trickster].

Whole creation. With the power of the holy armour to annihilate all things, it should be easy to extinguish the monstrous rays of light that Ruluve is shooting out and even slaughter the 100-eyed giant itself.

However, the holy armour consumes a huge amount of magic power.

Even if he could defeat Ruluve, Raidorl will be unable to fight after using up all his magic.

If he cuts his trump card in order to destroy the enemy in front of him, it will be difficult for him to reinforce Justy, who is attracting enemies on the northern road.

“No big moves. If I can’t use holy armour….there’s only one option I can take. A new technique I’ve just devised – a new “magic sword” that I’ve never tried in a real fight…….!”

Raidorl laughed fearlessly and grasped the Dáinsleif.

In response to its wielder’s will, the hilt of the holy sword returns a small vibration. Apparently, his partner agrees with him.

Raidorl nodded and looked belligerently at Ruluve, who had turned into a giant with a hundred eyes.

“I’ll show you to your heart’s content, Knight Ruluve of Plague! I’m going to show you how to fight with a Cursed sword fighting method…[Lunar Eclipse Hati] and [Solar Eclipse Skǫll]!”
