I Became the Villain of a Dark Fantasy

Episode

14 .

200 years ago. When the Empire was driven from the Holy Land and settled on this continent, the first thing it did was massacre the natives.

Numerous tribes and small countries that used to live on the continent were suppressed in the name of edification and propagation.

In the heart of the continent, this golden land where the current empire is located was a territory usurped from the natives.

The tomb was a trace of the buried alive of the ‘Grandel’ tribesmen who resisted such an empire to the end.

The ancient tomb was buried in the ground with the same area as the village unit.

Aiden, who was heading to the third basement floor, let out a laugh.

Souls being punished by God, locked in the heat? It sounded like a dog whistle. The inside was much cooler and more comfortable than the outside.

It was to the point where I thought it wouldn’t be bad to sit down for a few days as long as the unpleasant sound of praying went away.

Aiden passed through the corridor and entered the tomb.

A coffin was enshrined in the wide crypt, and it seemed to have enshrined the king of the Grandel tribe.

When Iden opened the coffin, black smoke leaked out. damn mad. It was the energy that came from the stake and magic that he had been working on for food.

The king’s soul must have been bound.

If it was the king of the Grendel tribe, there was a high probability that he would have been a warrior during his lifetime. The spirit of such a reward makes the demon to manifest more powerful.

This was one of the reasons why Tegain asked for the fall of God.

Aiden opened the vial of holy water.

A few drops were applied to the stone-hard king, and his body slowly crumbled to powder. Eventually, it scattered like dust, leaving nothing behind.

With the purity of Aiden’s divine power, he could have severed the shackles that bound his soul, but he had no choice but to use God’s fall.

The Demonic Church will notice if you use divine power.

As Iden headed to the rendezvous point, he planned to tour a few more districts.

This is because Marticoras had to be weakened as much as possible.

‘Let’s start by finding substitutes.’

Since the offering in the coffin was gone, it had to be replaced with something else.

The stake and the spell must be maintained so that Marticoras can manifest. While trying to find a replacement stone statue, I felt a presence approaching the tomb.

Come to think of it, I thought that it didn’t have to be a stone statue.

“I heard that the head of the Cromwell sect has changed.”

“Yes, I heard that too. But that way is so…”

Two demonists stopped when they saw Aiden standing there. Their eyes moved to the open coffin.

“what? Why is that again?”

One of them scanned Aiden’s black priestly uniform.

Demonic religions identify each other’s rank with the red line attached to their sleeves.

Iden is one line. It was the rank chosen to look like a rookie.

“Hey, why is that open?”

Iden walked over to him without answering.

“What are you dumb? answer···”

Before he could even finish his words, he fixed his chin with his left hand, grabbed it by the head with his right hand, and crossed it.

Suddenly, the teacher’s neck bones were broken at once.

Before the one remaining person was even aware of the situation, he extended his fist horizontally and sank his face.

Aiden carried the bodies of the two men and immediately approached the coffin.

The two, pushed into the coffin, were sacrifices to replace the king.

Since the souls of those who died in the tombs stay here forever, they were as if they were still alive.

200 years ago, people seemed to interpret this magic cast by the great wizard of the empire as a punishment from God.

Aiden impaled them both with a stake, which looked like a skewer.

I closed the coffin and visited several more tombs.

Euron looked down with a trembling heart.

The bottomless pit was waiting for Euron with its mouth wide open.

In the past, the single wooden bridge where the warriors of Grandel held their coming-of-age ceremony. It was the location where Euron had transferred.

A gust of wind from the Black Canyon shook my legs. I didn’t know how much longer the rotted tree would last.

With no luck or luck, why is the transfer point here? If it was like the old days, I would have complained like that, but not now.

Euron was moving slowly, flat on his stomach.

“hahahaha! Rookie man, yes, at what age will you come across? Can I help you?”

Daryl, who passed the coming-of-age ceremony a long time ago, was waiting for Euron on the other side. The two transferred to the same place.

Euron bit it hard.

‘I’d rather die than get help from a half horse.’

Euron crawled on his leg. The strength he had trained to lift Aiden’s holy grail was quite helpful.

“Uh, are you going there first?”

“Can you do that! Missing this fun spectacle? That’s not to be said. cancer.”

Euron blushed and struggled. He was obviously slow, but he was moving slowly forward.

*

Gathering area on the 3rd basement floor. The temple dedicated to honoring the warrior god was nothing more than a ruin where nothing of the past could be found.

After being destroyed by the Empire, Grendel’s sanctuary was left as a desolate vacant lot because it had been worn out for a long time.

“Time is running out… Hasn’t something happened to everyone?”

Cistina scanned the area nervously.

Priestess Sistine and Vandel. And Sein had already arrived at the rendezvous point.

They watched the altar at the edge of the clearing, hidden behind the rocks and darkness.

The children imprisoned outside the altar didn’t even scream, as if they had accepted their fate.

The ugly demons of the Demonic Church taunted and taunted the bars.

The devil, like a naked old man, giggled, sticking out his genitals,

The hybrid, whose skin was stuck to the floor, blinked his eyes as he peered into the cage.

Priest Vandel frowned.

“Let’s wait a little longer. There’s no way Lord Aiden was captured by them.”

“I’m sure my brothers will be all right.”

Cistina took a deep breath and nodded.

At that time, Daryl and Euron approached behind the group.

“Hey, everyone is gathered.”

“Has Sir Aiden not come yet?”

“Both lower your voice.”

Sein brought his index finger to his mouth.

“Look over there.”

A translucent purple curtain began to surround the altar.

Barrier. It was the signal flare that signaled the start of the offering ceremony.

As the purple color deepened, Sein’s face became more and more shady. It was because it was a much higher level of magic than expected.

“Now, wait a minute. It’s different from what you hear. It might be difficult to do this, but…”

Sein immediately drew a calculation formula on the floor. The purpose was not to break the barrier, but to escape in preparation for an unexpected situation.

Transference using scrolling.

Originally, Jeon Yi-jin was a high-ranking person that the world could not handle, but with a scroll, the story was different.

As much as one sheet eats up the budget of a small city for a year, the performance was solid.

“I’ll at least try the challenge if the paladin-nim comes quickly, but I’ll prepare a retreat first.”

The voices of prayer began to increase. The demonists surrounding the altar cried out to their god in a language they could not understand at all.

At the same time, the demons began to have seizures. The malevolent beings danced and giggled, burning with madness.

Priest Vandel recited the Gospel lowly. To keep the party from becoming terrified.

The altar vomited black smoke. The smoke became a fetter and captured the ghosts wandering around the tomb.

Grievous resentment echoed everywhere. The ghosts were swallowed into the altar and began to howl.

I couldn’t afford to wait any longer for Iden. Sistina cried.

“three! Can you do it?”

“It takes a little time. But if Lord Aiden doesn’t come…”

“There is no need for that.”

It was Iden’s voice from behind.

Everyone’s eyes turned to Iden, who was walking slowly.

“Ah, Sir Aiden!”

“Stop, Holy Knight! You may not be able to break the barrier before summoning…”

“Does not matter.”

Aiden was calm.

“Vandel and Sein, keep your current position. Euron and Cistina cover them both, and Daryl follow me. Do you understand?”

“understand!”

Euron alone answered loudly. The rest looked very bewildered.

“Paladin-sama, if you can’t close the barrier…”

“No, more than that, the summoning has already begun! Retreat now…”

Aiden burst into a halo without a word. Everyone was shocked and shut up. The pure white brilliance instantly melted the darkness that had eaten away at the hall.

It poured cold water on the frenzy of the demons and drove the impatience out of the party.

Reverend Vandel stopped reading the gospel with a stiff head.

“Keep reciting.”

The eyes of the god staring into the darkness were burning brightly.

Sein seemed to know why Elohimderk chose Aiden.

“I will ask again. Do you understand?”

“I understand…”

“I will break the barrier.”

A crack formed in the ground as Aiden’s thigh swelled endlessly. It spurs up in an instant and covers the air.

Daryl followed behind Aiden while frowning at the pain of divine power.

The unexpected appearance of the paladin made the disciples panic. Without interrupting the ceremony, he continued to recite strange prayers.

Rather good.

Aiden roared and slaughtered the demons that blocked him.

“You bastard bastards—!”

The dwarf’s head was crushed with an iron sword, and the rotten flesh that rushed to him was torn apart.

The seeker of destruction went into a maddening fit. From Tedrang’s Incubus to half-horse Daryl. The instincts that I had been holding back soared out of control.

Black blood gushed out like a fountain every time the giant iron sword was turned. Flesh and entrails were scattered in all directions.

Daryl was terribly afraid of the paladin in front of him.

Because that merciless knife might fly at him.

“Daryl! Prove your worth!”

I owe Sae-in, so I intend to pay it back. I wasn’t going to pick one up. Aiden needed a justification to free him from the church. It was self rationalization. Because I had to brainwash myself into needing Daryl to survive.

Daryl also wanted to live. He swallowed his resolve and launched Bido into the air.

Numerous blades engulfed the air. It rushed like rain and ovulated demons.

Sein’s freezing magic froze the surviving demons. Sistina and Euron cut down the hybrids that rushed at them.

Aiden was approaching the barrier.

The halo shuddered wildly. The accumulated hypocrisy gave off a clear presence.

It lowered the barrier with a blinding flash of light.

Blah! A crack opened in the translucent membrane.

Aiden violently reached in and tore off the barrier.

It was in a way Daryl had never heard of. Due to Aiden’s eccentricity, his gaping mouth could not be closed at all.

“Follow me in.”

“Yes, yes!”

Even though Aiden approached, the demonists did not stop their rituals.

Aiden also walked slowly toward the altar without killing them.

Daryl couldn’t understand Aiden’s behavior at all, but he just silently followed. If it was just what the paladin in front of me was doing, it seemed right.

Aiden strode up the stairs and stood in the middle.

At Aiden’s feet, the disciples were memorizing prayers.

Then, suddenly, the syllables became intermittent, and the catalyst on the platform began to tremble.

Aiden swung his iron sword at the right timing.

The heads of the cultists soared into the air. A spray of blood gushed from the cut in the neck. Daryl threw a vido, suffocating the surviving remnants.

Iden’s gaze turned to the catalyst. As the platform split in half, a deep abyss gazed at Aiden.

Aiden poured the remaining holy water under it. A ferocious roar echoed from the abyss.

Something terrible creeps up. Daryl swallowed his saliva.

Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwang, Iden looked directly at the red eyes that slowly appeared.

Aiden drew a cruel smile. The demon’s face was distorted with anger.

The human face embedded in the gigantic face evoked a terrible disgust.

Aiden grabbed the iron sword in reverse.

A gale blows from the abyss. Eventually, when Marticoras appeared, Aiden swung down his iron sword.

After inserting a knife into his forehead and fixing it, he flew up with the Witchbeast.
