Sword Pilgrim

Chapter 159

Episode 159

The reason why the empire pursued the policy of extermination of the heterogeneous race is as follows.

It was because of the theory that other races other than humans were affected by demons, just like demonic beasts transformed into beasts.

Among them, the Yongin and Beast tribes were also a race where their discriminatory gaze and aggression were particularly concentrated.

Even from the outside, their appearance was that of a beast, and they looked no different from demon beasts, except for the fact that they walked on two legs and used language.

Perhaps the reason he came to me isn’t too different.

Like most other races do.

imperial persecution and oppression.

And it must be a story to resist the annihilation of the species or to lend strength.

“Am I right.”

“As a result, yes. The Empire has abandoned us.”

“Abandoned?”

“It was a stupid choice. The Beasts were good at hiding their presence from birth, so the Empire wanted to use them.”

It is a story of becoming a pawn of the empire.

other heterogeneous species.

It was easy to use as a scout because it was not detected by the spirits of elves, dwarves, dragons, etc., and the shield of the shield god they served was so hard and solid.

From the perspective of the empire, they were perfect people to put forward.

However, as time passed, the power of the small countries and minorities that had achieved fierce resistance weakened, and the power of the empire became stronger.

“If the prey is gone, the hound is also useless.”

It was the sound of being dumped.

However, some managed to survive and have remained alive to this day.

“so. The story that I am the savior?”

“The saintess said. Disaster will descend on the navel of the empire, but the one who cuts off its head will be the savior who will remind us of the true meaning of the shield…”

It was then.

“You traitor bastards…!”

Suddenly, Philo grabbed his spear and threw a spear at the shield knight.

Fighting!

A dull noise echoes.

Philo’s spear was blocked by the shield.

A large kite shield.

It was blocked by it, but since it was subtly blocked, there seemed to be no shock.

‘A shield is a shield.’

Philo’s physical strength is second only to Aldu here.

It is because of the innate physical ability and muscles unique to the race.

The shield that blocked Pilo’s spear without much impact or the shield technique that handled him.

‘Shield Knight Puppy.’

The name is easy to die for, but it is a person who has been set up as a named NPC.

Its qualities and beliefs are also solid and faithful, like a shield.

“How many people do you think died because of you guys! But now that they’re about to die, help me!? If you are a dog of the Empire, die like a dog!”

Tuong! Empty! thud!

Philo’s attack follows.

But everyone gets stuck.

If it is not possible to block it with a kite shield larger than its own body, it blocks it with a small buckle on the wrist and bounces it off.

It was like a race that survived using only a shield.

“Whoa, what the heck!”

In a fit of rage, Philo threw down his spear and sat down in his seat.

Seeing that he turned his back, it seemed that his pride was hurt that he couldn’t leave a scar on him with his own skills.

‘Pilo’s spearmanship was focused on defense, but it has changed a bit.’

The battle with Garcia seemed to have changed a bit.

But I wonder if I realized something when I looked at the defense itself once again.

what direction do you want to go

“Once…”

Anyway, I had to decide.

He came all the way here.

It will be to take me

“I refuse.”

There is nothing to think about.

“May I ask the reason?”

“I have no desire to be your savior. It’s not that I’m wandering around the world with such a grandiose thing. I have a hard time handling myself and my surroundings.”

This is because of the surface area.

But the inside was a little different.

‘My body is not a fever.’

my body is one

I wish I could get involved in all this and that, but time is limited and I only have one body.

More efficient choices and more fulfilling results should be presented.

To do so, my choice must always be the best, and the result must be the best for my purpose.

‘Anyway, the shields come to Carpe.’

It will happen a little later, but Iza will gather at Carpe anyway.

Exiled by the Empire, the places they depend on are limited.

It is safe to say that there is no

Even in the original scenario, in the end, they are the ones who give strength to Carpe and small countries.

According to my prediction, Cedric, with the Gods of Kwon and Gak on his back, should be solidifying his position in Carpe.

So will the whip.

In such a state, Carpe can’t stop another god from approaching.

Rather, you should be willing.

Because the war with the Empire is fast approaching.

‘Even if I don’t do anything.’

Carpe can absorb the shield just by giving a word.

“Besides, I have a prior arrangement.”

Shields are good too.

Their strength is also needed.

But there are priorities.

Besides, it’s a precedent in the first place.

“The dwarves come first.”

Aldu, who looked a little uneasy, shook his head.

“Oh oh…! Callis! What a thrill!”

Pushing Aldu who was trying to cling to me, I sat back in the chair.

It was the original meal time.

As always, I strictly adhere to mealtimes.

The only things I enjoy in this world are swords and gourmet food.

“We are not asking you to help us without any conditions.”

I ignored Puppy’s words and cut the steak.

It was something similar to the salad the elves brought, and the bear meat that Filo caught and matured.

In addition, the wine Aldu provided and the red sauce Serena made.

It’s a combination I’m obsessed with these days.

When you slice a piece with a knife and place it on your tongue, the sourness and sweetness of the sauce harmonize with the rich flavor of the fat and meat. The salad that I put together boosted the texture, and after enjoying it, I refreshed my mouth with a sip of wine.

“It’s a pity there is no bread.”

I wanted to dip the bread in the stew.

It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten all the bread in the subspace, and I couldn’t bake bread in this desolate forest.

The moment I was a little regretful.

Swoop.

Puppy holds out a round piece of bread the size of a palm.

“Thank you.”

Boom bung bung.

The tail wags.

The eyes are fixed on the steak.

do you want to eat

“I do not recommend my meals to anyone. Don’t expect it.”

Puppy’s tail stopped moving.

After I finished my meal so satisfactorily, I started talking as if I had been waiting.

“The saintess said. You should head to the grave.”

“Go back. My will does not change.”

The moment you refuse without listening.

“…for a moment. tomb?”

“yes. It is a fairy grave.”

“!!”

“!!”

“!!”

“!!”

Serena and Aldu.

Even Philo and Colius were surprised.

But there was one more surprise, and that was Ovarna.

“A fairy’s grave! It was the first time in my life that I had heard of such a thing. It’s natural that even the existence of a fairy is unfamiliar, but a tomb… arouses interest?”

“Are you still there?”

Why don’t you leave sooner and still stay?

When I noticed, I rather shamelessly spread my chest.

“Wherever I am, it is of my own free will. It’s the first time I’ve ever heard of a fairy’s grave. Can you explain?”

“Except for the savior, I cannot give you any further details.”

“That’s…”

Callius struggled, leaving behind the grouchy Ovarna.

Fairy’s Tomb.

He was the only person here who knew its meaning and value.

‘It’s a fairy’s grave.’

She tried to refuse the Beast Tribe’s request, but the saintess’ will was different.

It’s like a fairy’s grave.

As a reward for catching the dragon, the power of the dragon entered a stable zone.

If you look at the ability window, you can see that the dragon’s power has grown rapidly.

?Abilities?

Strength – 201

Agility – 186

Skills – 52

Health – 232

Faith – 110 Dragon

Power – 108

It’s about the same as Divine Power.

Of course, since the chastity is different, it can’t be compared, but it’s still the same to some extent.

The instability is gone and the output is higher than before.

But because of that, the spirit was a problem.

It was because the spirit power was so insignificant that it had not yet been recognized as an ability level.

However, the opportunity to approach the fairy’s grave appeared just in time.

“Callis…?”

Anxiety crept across Aldu’s face.

At this point, I felt an intense feeling of being blown away by the words of the shield man.

That’s why, even after calling carefully, Callius didn’t even move.

In fact, Colliers even felt doomed.

With this opportunity, you will be able to incorporate the spirit into your ability and greatly improve it.

If so, the balance between the Sulivian-style sacred art he uses and the remnants would be roughly right.

‘If it’s a fairy’s grave, there must be one.’

Goblin gold coins that I had been collecting for a while.

Twenty have already gathered in the water.

I could have used this.

I was intrigued.

“Where can I go?”

Aldu was sullen. But Colliers didn’t care.

* * *

thump thump.

The sound of the horn and the footsteps of the troops create a sense of grandeur.

Plains of Voltan.

In front of the place called Dragon Forest, the army of Heaven and the three spears of the Empire stood majestically.

Numbers 11 and 10 on their red armor and capes. And the number 7 was engraved on it.

11th window from the left. Wüneren.

10th Spear Jolet.

It was the 7th window Dex.

Just like three spears of the Empire.

Plus a thousand elite knights.

Even a tolerably small country could be destroyed with this level of military power.

But all of this is only one.

It was to subdue the dragon located in Voltan.

“Stupid quillord. Didn’t it turn to powder with one breath of the dragon?”

“He was also the spear of the Empire. Do not laugh at his death.”

“But, Dex. Isn’t it? Unlike the time of the dragon horse war, it was not a time when miscellaneous dragons were rampant, but it was a true blooded dragon.

However, Dex shook his head.

“Even though he was a Jinryong, he hadn’t grown up yet, and when I heard the story, I heard that he even fell from the sky while fighting someone. If he was young and injured and hiding in the woods, he would have thought it worthwhile. His courage deserves to be praised. Cheers to the courage of the quills.”

Dex pretended to raise a wine glass and toasted to the sun in the sky.

They recognized and respected his skills and personality, but I couldn’t understand what he was doing.

“Büneren Zolet. Leading the knights, they spread out on both sides and rushed in. If the dragon’s breath is about to fly, avoid it with all your might. We still don’t know its true power.”

“yes!”

“All right.”

“And Büneren. Don’t ignore others. It’s your bad habit.”

“Quillord was clearly below me.”

“Even so, I cannot say that I am a person to be ignored by you. Make a distinction between public and private.”

“…All right. Let’s go.”

“charge!”

It was safe to say that the appearance of the army divided into three and charging was spectacular.

Their momentum pierced the sky, and the Transcendentalists at the forefront maintained their powerful steps as if they were destroying the entire forest.

however.

There was no dragon expected there.

that there is.

“Who are you?”

There was only one man, covered in rags, with cloudy eyes.

[Ah… I want to die.]

“…!!”

It was an indescribable sensation.

Threat? live?

It wasn’t such an obvious feeling.

It was a creepy and unpleasant sensation that was different from the pressure of having a strong opponent in front of you.

The faces of the spears of the Empire changed as if they were looking at an endless abyss.

Thoughts were short, actions were quick.

The three Spears of the Empire unleashed a coordinated attack at the same time.

At the same time as I opened the window, all three thought. A blow that can never be avoided.

Fluffy!

Even the dragon’s scales were about to fall.

The three spears crossed and cut through the man’s chest perfectly.

But at that moment.

Pooh!!

[Why can’t you kill me? What the

hell!!

Chow!!

The man’s body turned into sharp tentacles and attacked the entire area.

that day.

In the dragon forest, three masters were injured and fled, and all close to a thousand knights became fertilizer for the forest.

Afterwards, the empire declared that the peace at the end of the Dragon Demon War had been broken.
