Chapter 540

161. Death Lord’s Legacy

The sword begins to move out of control as if it were alive.

The knights were embarrassed by the power they felt for the first time in their lives and tried to retrieve the sword somehow, but all of their favorite soldiers betrayed their masters and rose into the air.

“Oops! The sword is arbitrary!”

A knight who almost clung to the sword floating in the air struggled, but the monotonous iron sword mercilessly betrayed the master’s will.

The knights who were disarmed in an instant hurriedly took out their secondary weapons and tried to raise them, but it was just a meaningless resistance.

“Cheuk!?”

“That sword again!”

“Take care! He uses telekinesis!”

There was no one who judged this simply as a winning sword.

It’s definitely beyond common sense.

There are currently only two people on the continent who can wield the sword.

The fire fox grand duke of Lindis, and a single faction that was called the One-Man Legion even before I went on a rampage. Archduchess Catherine Caravella.

And the only stranger in all the world who crossed over from the parallel line who is Ilina de Palan but not Ilina.

There is Rayna.

Swordsmen with a high level, including Illina, have a glimpse of that level, but isn’t it easier to say that the level of swordsman is more difficult than becoming an expert master?

The wall wasn’t there for nothing.

I exactly subdued the king of the Baltiz Kingdom and looked at him, but the sword flew in as if it had its own will and subdued the knights.

The realm of seeing without looking.

Boundaries that control the surroundings through waves.

That is the power of the sword.

After subduing all the knights inside the waiting room, Varys slowly moved on.

Then he snatched a sword floating in the air and aimed it at Prince Baltiz.

“I won’t accept anything other than unconditional surrender. That’s why you should have accepted it the first time you asked for it properly. Even if a person has too little conscience, he will be punished.”

‘Whoever’s younger brother is very relentless.’

Perserk chuckled as if he was satisfied with Varys’ remark.

The Royal Palace is occupied by Lynn and the Golems, and the interior is occupied by Varys and I.

Perserk is sitting on my shoulder, but since habits don’t disappear easily, she didn’t show herself well to anyone but me.

At this point, the Prince of Baltiz seemed to feel that things were going wrong.

He picked up one of the swords that were threatening the knights floating in the air and aimed it at Prince Boltiz’s neck.

“Ivosio Prince Barris. Ah, no matter how much war is declared, this makes no sense!”

“Why are you saying that doesn’t make sense?”

“To take control of the palace right after the declaration of war anywhere in the world…”

At his words, Baris started to giggle.

However, Prince Baltiz’s mouth fell shut at the chill in his expression.

Judging by the look on his face, he seems really angry.

“Prince Baltiz.”

“…”

“Do you know what is most effective in a fight? It is a bloodless victory. A formal conflict in which the blood of innocent people is shed and their ideology is built around their necks is only a part of war.”

Where are the rules in a war, a large-scale fight to kill each other?

Usually, envoys who go to deliver a declaration of war are often prepared to die.

In fact, it was common in history books to be caught and decapitated.

The word war had a strong meaning of going to the end, whether you die or I die.

In the process, countless people fell while shedding blood, and the defeated had to give much to the victorious country, swallowing bloody tears.

“The art of war says that the best course of action is to subdue the opponent without shedding blood.”

Then, in countless wars, what is the reason why sword master-level beings do not go to declare war?

It was because the sword master was a strategic weapon class talent.

It’s not easy to meet the opponent’s leader, but what if you go and get caught doing a rampage right after the declaration of war?

From the standpoint of a developing country, there is nothing more to lose than that.

Even if it is a strategic weapon, it would be almost impossible to catch all the arrows pouring down from the sky and return to life.

“In fact, in the past, when the Lindis Empire occupied some small countries, it used a similar method.”

The strength of the Lindis Empire is quantity.

quantity of talent.

In fact, if you look at the history of the Lindis Empire in the past, there was a bar that sent dozens of sword master-level strongmen to seize the royal family on the spot and obtain surrender.

It’s like Earth, but this is a completely different world.

The ideology could not be completely the same.

Even the articles of the law of war are different in the first place.

Of course, considering the element of false surrender, this cannot be said to be highly efficient either.

“Keuugh! Let go! You despicable bastard!”

King Baltiz shouted with a frown on his face as if he thought that the situation was not going the way he thought.

“Do you think you’ll be safe even after doing this! Even if you kill everyone here, all the capital’s defense corps who noticed the anomaly will flock to the castle! Then!”

Pooh!!

In an instant, a sword flew into my hand and pierced his arm.

At the same time, his eyes widened.

“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!”

“your majesty!!”

The desperate knights shouted, but they were also suppressed by the sword and could not move.

“It’s not like the golems outside are holding out to play.”

My smile puts fear on his face.

“Then, majesty, shall we take your life now so that it is not unfair?”

Do you think I can’t

When he sent such a gaze, he seemed to have finally recognized the seriousness of the situation.

More than he thought, I pushed in without hesitation.

And I also made it clear that I could kill him right now if I wanted to.

Judging the situation, it seemed that fear had taken hold of her whole body.

Anger disappears, and a terrible fear remains.

“Oh, I see! Surrender… Surrender! But you can’t kill a country’s king without such formalities! Stop taking lives!”

Surrender, but the King of Baltiz I knew was someone who would never surrender if he was going to die anyway.

But he has been trying to negotiate with me in the meantime.

Perhaps it was to buy himself time to find a way to survive by somehow prolonging his life right now.

Normally, there would be no reason to wait, but right now it was best to give him time.

As a result, the war with the Kingdom of Baltiz ended with minimal sacrifice as soon as it started.

King Baltiz’s complacent judgment, who overlooked my existence and never thought that a real war would start, created this situation.

“It’s just something I really hate.”

After withdrawing the staff who threatened King Baltiz, I muttered as I stepped back from him.

“The more brutal a war is, the sooner it ends.”

I think that’s right, but I really hate it.

“I won’t kill you right now. But I hope the declaration of surrender isn’t false. Let’s go! Varys.”

“Brother? Are you just leaving?”

Varys made an expression that he did not understand.

It was like having finished the rice and suddenly sprinkled ashes on the finished rice.

If they retreated in this way, they would either run away or be stabbed in the back.

therefore.

Before that happens, a wedge must be driven in.

Fuck!

When I lightly flicked my hand, light began to gather around me.

And the space in a part of the reception room was torn, and the soldiers of the Kingdom of Raun and the royal knights began to rush into it.

The soldiers and knights of the Raun Kingdom pouring out in large numbers were an unprepared power that could not be defeated.

“What?!”

“Space war!? Impossible! There must be an obstruction field in the castle!”

It was just that they were summoned by using the space shift magic reversed, who had been waiting through the waiting space.

As the knights said, the capital of the kingdom usually has a teleportation magic obstruction field that interferes with space teleportation.

However, the problem was that the magic skills of the current continent were too far behind for me, who suddenly crashed into the capital of the empire following the castle country through space transfer.

In fact, it wasn’t that difficult to solve the obstruction field by instantaneous inverse calculation.

“Thank you for your hard work. Prince Varys and Prince Davy.”

“The King and Prince of Baltiz are imprisoned in the basement. They are executed after announcing to the entire kingdom what they have done.”

Even those who haven’t appeared yet will have to be pulled out.

* * *

The forces of the Raun Kingdom, which had been waiting in advance, rushed in, and the Baltiz Kingdom declared surrender without a chance to do anything after receiving a declaration of war.

A declaration of war is only a promise between nations.

If the war started in a situation where there was no problem, it was only the discretion of each country from then on.

If the war prolongs, of course, many countries will intervene, saying that you are all good-looking.

After that, it is an obvious ending to fight and fight over the spoils after the war.

i can’t see that

The royal family directly involved in this situation is the current King of Baltiz and his aide, Prince.

They were the only people related to the royal family he knew through Perserk.

He was determined to trample on the Baltiz kingdom, but he had to think about the future to catch up and kill even unrelated people.

“Tsk tsk. It’s a spectacle.”

“Sister, take a look at this too. Even if we hadn’t come in the first place, the Bortis Kingdom would have collapsed soon.”

Varys held out a report to Perserk, who was flicking through papers to organize the situation.

It was a report that in the midst of the country’s reeling, it was increasing rather than reducing its military budget.

On such a topic, the defense budget was not enough and there were many embezzlements, so the military supply was messed up and weapons were not properly supplied.

With that in mind, the number of soldiers was increasing dramatically.

“Like…”

“They were preparing to start a war. Davy. Look at this.”

“It’s obvious without looking at it, so let’s pass it.”

If I am in charge of the armed forces in the war, Varys will have to take care of post-mortem issues.

“The thing that trampled on the Baltiz kingdom goes as planned. But don’t shake the kingdom itself.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Have you seen the public sentiment of the Baltiz Kingdom?”

I asked as I put my sword down outside the window and looked at the knights of the Royal Castle being tied up.

“Is it popular?”

“Yes. I’m not talking about it. Due to the penalty tax, there is a bad harvest due to drought, and security is extremely bad.”

The people may be suppressed so that they do not make a loud noise to the Nara, but if they realize that this situation is all led by the royal castle, the result is obvious.

“Amidst this, the royal family’s meals were amazing. The luxury was comparable to that of the Empire. But brother. If the people’s sentiment is so bad, it would be better to destroy the Baltic Kingdom…” “Being human is so cunning.

”

I was talking calmly, but I noticed someone looking out the window and moved on.

“Perserk. They’re out. Let’s go.”

“How could such an obvious fight be Genji…”

“Brother?”

When I left without answering, a flustered Varys got up and followed me.

“Hyung-nim, why do you hang up in the middle?

“No matter how much you want to burn a person, you can’t ignore the sense of belonging. If we forcibly annex the Kingdom of Baltiz, half of them will be welcome, but some will be extremely ferocious.”

The fury that has lost its place will soon head to the Raun Kingdom.

Guerillas, resistance fighters, and other independence fighters

. Not good.

“Then if you leave the kingdom…”

“Leave the kingdom. It’s a craving for public opinion. People who have a hard time making ends meet are ordinary people who are happy even if they just have to eat tomorrow.” It’s

not good, but that’s how the world goes

. That way there will be less resistance regardless of future mergers or whatever.”

The resistance will come out somehow. If you recklessly create a puppet government, this side will also have a headache.

“How did this war with the Kingdom of Boltise happen…

Weren’t you on good terms? Rather, what did you hear from the United Nations?”

“The results of the meeting are still in the third trial. However, it seems to be reviewed quite positively.” Because

it is the royal family who caught the child and did something like a devil to make the banned drug.

These people have nothing to say even if they

die

. Ziggy Baltiz asked the

common people if they would disclose to the public the secrets of corruption and horrific acts hidden by the royal family, as well as the production process of Moonlight Honey

. Only then will there be no problem on this side.” When

all

the acts of King Baltiz are revealed, the judgment of the people is obvious

. It

becomes madness.

Denying human nature itself is meaningless.

Using what can be used and blocking what is not.

That is the decision I made.

“By the way, where are you going, brother?

” As I walked through the hallway, Varys followed me curiously.

Dozens of knights and hundreds of soldiers were occupying the castle, so the whole place was chaos, but this hallway I was walking through was strangely quiet. “I’ll be waiting forever.

” . Saying that ,

I slowly drew out Cheongdan-i and lightly lowered the tip of the sword downward.

At the same time, a bluish aura began to form on Cheongdan-i’s blue blade. A blue

sword that cuts dead.

‘s power cuts everything that belongs to non-physical laws.

In fact, there are monsters that stand firm even if they are cut by Cheongdan, but that is just enduring, not ineffective.

“If you have something to say, jump out and do it.”

Ting !

“What?!”

The change was evident

.

As long as a person was wearing a black robe

in a hallway where no one had been there before, In-young appeared.

His behavior was as relaxed as if he had been there from the beginning. It was impossible

not to know the identity of the monster.

He had already escaped from me once alive.

Dark red veins sprouted from half of his face. “You didn’t know you were going to find me.”

I

responded with a smile to the Illuminati leader D’Sent (the one who calls death) with a smile.

“At that time, the karma judgment I planted was quite effective Did you like it?”

“It was really surprising. Thanks to you, I almost died. I managed to stop it somehow.”

Even if I wanted to judge karma, it wouldn’t have been easy to stop it.

I instinctively knew why the terrible scars on his face were formed.

Because he judged him. Perhaps those scars that are eating away at his body are a side effect of

that

. Even though it’s a test piece, there won’t be a perfect experimental environment like now.”

“Who are you! Reveal your identity!”

Varys shouted nervously, and Perserk reached out to restrain him.

“Experiment?”

“Yes. Although it is not a finished product, I will use the legacy of the Death Lord to take a little… the lives of everyone in the castle.” At the same time as he said that, the

crystal ball he took out from his chest began to emit a black light

.

Black energy, quite incompatible with the spirit Mana, began to spread everywhere,

like a black mist.

[This is a magic created by the Death Lord. Even the existence of this world would not know the existence of this great magic.]

It disappeared into the mist . I untied my hand again at the relaxed yet whining voice.

His words seemed to be the truth.

Black Mist must have been magic created by [Lo Aias].

His voice disappeared into the black mist . [Everything moves according to my will here. Of course, for a monster like you, sensory confusion doesn’t mean much, but that doesn’t mean you can’t fight against an endless stream of enemies without moving your mana properly

.

] I want to die with it.”

[It’s not difficult to kill everyone in this castle without dying. It’s a bit unfortunate that I can’t kill you.]

Black Mist magic.

It confuses the five senses and fills the entire area with black mist.

The black mist Depending on the will of the caster, it can become an ally or an existence that gives extreme fear to the enemy. It

is impossible to cut through the shapeless fog.

However, if you can dispel it, that is also impossible.

[Haha… hahahaha ! It’s really satisfying!!]

I stretched out my hand in response to the murder that burrowed towards me in the fog,

and then the monster made of fog was subdued in my hand.

Of

course, before I could smash its head, the monster Although his body was scattered again into smoke like fog.

[For reference, this magic cannot be dispelled. Even the proud dispel you are good at is useless here.]

His provocation continued.

She created this magic to provide endless terror, even though her level has dropped and she is forced to channel it through her legacy. This magic that transcends the Circle is really amazing.]

Death Lord Table Lower Transcendence Magic.

It is a field magic that only she can use, and it is also proof of her existence.

“Wrong.”

I said coldly, dispelling the approaching death in the darkness, as if slowly choking me.

“The main purpose of Black Mist is to prevent war.”

In this mist, no one can get through each other except the caster.

It is a magic that is optimized to literally stop a large army engulfed in madness.

[What?! you! How did you name this magic?!]

“But isn’t it really strange? I remember that the Death Lord [Lo Aias] had been forgotten in the Pasrisa continent.”

At my words, the voice of D’Cent, the leader of the Illuminati, disappeared.

Knowing the name of the magic and the Death Lord, it was said without a doubt that they were astonished at my actions.

“Don’t you think you have a lot to say to me?”

with those words.

My hand stretched out into the air.

and.

For the first time, I caught something with a shape in the fog.

[Demon Lord Yurg-style crowd control]

[To the side of the Lord in one shot.]

My elbow fell right into the vital part of him who pulled his collar and broke his posture.

[Keep…huh?!]

You’re wrinkled in front of the chrysalis.
