Chapter 332

TL: Zimmings

The people headed out to do their designated work.

Me, the Dubblede Army, the Imperial Army, the Duke of Grimoire, the Marquis Shuheil and the Archduke of Locard decided to form an army and head to the temple.

The emperor’s role was central defense. In addition, he disbanded the soldiers of the forces who joined Andre.

As a result, the temple could not expect reinforcements.

Before leaving, my dad and I had a conversation with the emperor for a while.

Dad said,

“Your Majesty, would you be able to lead the centre with that condition?”

Cecilia’s protective magic was not the kind of thing that completely prevented him from being affected by poison.

Such a high-level magic was something that could only be used by 21 priests or cardinals.

So I proposed a new protection magic to Cecilia.

It was a method of expelling poison by activating cells in the body at high speed. It is more of a magic that is close to healing than protection. That’s why we used the passage of Gremory, which has the ability to heal.

The emperor was unconscious due to a an overload. Of course, I could wake him up at any time.

It was true that he was not in a good condition because his body had driven out the poison.

“Your condition seems more serious than I thought.”

“Even under these circumstances, I could still use my mouth.”

“You’re rude. Don’t you remember that you’ve been poisoned by your own child?”

“I don’t think it’s relevant to the context.”

“It’s because of an inferiority complex. Be careful of your words.”

Even in this situation, the emperor was full of vigor.

My dad burst into laughter. The emperor who laughed a lot said in a low voice.

“I have to punish them all.”

Dad bowed his head lightly, and the emperor pulled a piece of parchment from the table.

“The next time you visit the Imperial Palace, please choose a new country name.”

“……!”

I looked at the emperor. The emperor laughed as if he couldn’t help it.

So that meant that he would grant the independence of Dubblede.

Me and my father knelt before the emperor. It was going to be the last time in my life.

Dad said, looking at the emperor.

“A wise decision, I will not forget.”

The emperor nodded and said.

“The last task given to Dubblede, who was the sword and shield of the empire is to drive the heretics out of this land.”

Me and dad answered at the same time.

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

So we headed to the final battlefield.

***

At the land where the central temple and the vatican are located, there were flying holy beasts in the air and people with half melted skin in the surroundings.

Their lack of preparation is rather obvious.

These were the failed test subjects. It was inferior to holy beasts in both attack and defense.

Johann and Isaac each delivered the operation strategy to the soldiers.

“Those who wear the special armor (armor made by Veronica using beasts) are in charge of holy beasts and failed experiments. Ordinary soldiers should run away as soon as they encounter them. No one should waste their lives.”

“Ordinary soldiers deal with holy knights. As soon as we break through the defense of holy beasts and failed experiments, our troops head to the central temple.”

The soldiers were divided into five main groups.

The central army commanded by my dad.

The special armored soldier commanded by Johann.

Ordinary soldiers commanded by Isaac.

The mages will be under the command of Stefano, a cardinal and father of Emeline.

Volunteers commanded by the Duke of Grimoire.

Johann’s unit is in charge of holy beasts. Isaac’s unit is in charge of the central temple, and the vatican.

I am in charge of a small unit that includes my father’s army.

Although it was small, it was a unit of one hundred men.

‘Because they are all great people!’

Zachary and Sourire alone are already like four knights.

Adding to that is Lea, the commander-in-chief of Irie.

Dahlia, a former serial killer of rapists.

The fake Trigon, Wale, the head mage of court mages, the real Trigon, who recovered, and Aragon, their father and the strongest court mage ever.

Aunt who was the captain of white horse battalion.

It is a unit that includes them, so no matter what troops we encounter, we will not be easily defeated.

“The first thing we need to do is take etwal. We must find my etwal before the pope summons the devil.”

Everyone in our unit shouted at my words.

At that moment, my father’s communication device rang.

The caller was Henry in the estate.

[We have infiltrated all the temples within the Dubblede territory. We locked the priests in prison.]

The army in many areas also reported that.

Dad nodded and raised his sword.

“Annihilate the heretics!”

Dung- Dung- Dung- Dung-!

The sound of drums and trumpet made of the dragon’s horns cried to mark the beginning of the war.

Johann’s army quickly struck holy beasts.

The holy beasts and the subjects fell at a speed that was incomparable to that in the battle of the interrogation center or the battle of the vacant lot.

‘The armor is the best!’

With this, the Dubblede army, which is considered the best one in the country, will be unbeatable!

I looked at the mages cutting holy beasts and experiments like paper with ecstatic eyes.

The cardinal resisted, but they collapsed in less than ten minutes when Johann, wearing the armor, stepped forward.

“Go inside!”

Dad’s and Isaac’s army filled the land where the vatican and temple are located.

Dad’s army headed to the vatican and Isaac headed to the central temple.

“Those who have rebelled against God will be teared to death!”

Cardinal Nicolasio pointed his sword at my father.

“A rogue that follows their own desires dares to interpret God’s will.”

Nicolasio’s face wrinkled at my father’s words.

“I, I…! Attack!”

Nicolasio’s soldiers rushed toward them.

A fierce battle was expected as they included a number of holy beasts.

Although there were people wearing special armor in father’s army, the holy beasts guarding the vatican, the center of Neliardism, were more powerful than those guarding the gates.

Kiik-!

An eagle the size of an adult male torso flies.

It had a man’s face with a hideous beak.

Wale, the fake Trigon was amazed and covered his mouth.

The other holy beasts were also horrifying.

It looked creepy and scary enough to be overwhelming before even an attack.

“Hmm.”

A familiar voice came from behind.

Zachary, grabbing Sourire’s shoulder with one arm, smiled and looked at Nicolasio’s holy beasts.

“Are you going to let the fake stand in the way of a real beast?”

“Kreuk…”

Sourire’s low voice came out one after another.

I wondered if there were sharp fangs between his lips, then Sourire’s eyes became sharp.

“Look, it’s them.”

“Kreuk.”

“If you kill that guy, you get a special meal. Start!”

As soon as Zachary shouted, Sourire, who had turned into a giant wolf, roared and rushed at the holy beasts.

“Three o’clock.”

As soon as Zachary said that, Sourire turned his head toward the three o’clock direction and opened his mouth wide. The holy knight who was rushing was torn to pieces by Sourire’s teeth.

‘Wow!’

I felt like clapping my hands if I could.

The combination of Zachary, a brainy guy who excels in strategy and Sourire, the strongest of the four knights, was really great.

If Chul-soo had been here, he would have made a fuss.

The knights who came from behind swung their two-handed spears lightly and knocked them down.

Dad and his army also joined in.

Nicolasio’s army quickly fell.

“Let’s go, Blaine.”

My dad said.

‘Dad’s not feeling well, can me and my troops leave?’

He need a little more support…

“Go!”

I clenched my fists at my father’s resolute words.

I nodded towards my unit.

“Let’s go to the temple.”

My etwal and Adrian will be there.

While my dad’s army faced the Holy Knights of the vatican, my troops crossed the Great Gate.

We only needed 20 steps to reach the chapel, but we were blocked by knights in the temple.

There were two cardinals included, one of them was Blasio.

‘If we fight here, our troops must be tired.’

We cannot delay the time to find etwal. That’s why I left my dad.

So I’ll have to go to the chapel while my troops are fighting.

If there are holy beasts in there, I won’t be able to easily endure without the devil.

‘What do I do…’

Lea, holding the sword, said as she looked at the two cardinals.

“Do you want to die?”

“Move away, Blasio.”

When I said that, the cardinal next to Blasio, Teneron, laughed at me.

“Nonsense. Do you think we’ll be obedient to you?”

“Blasio.”

I ignored Teneron and looked at Blasio.

“Although we were in a relationship by necessity, I have confidence in you.”

“Are you going to bring emotions in war?”

“No way.”

I smiled and held out my hand.

“I just trust that you will be a wise person. I can reach out my hand because you’re a wise man.”

“…….”

“You and I fight for our own desires in the end. Our desires can be mixed. We can walk together.”

“…….”

When Blasio was silent, Teneron groaned.

“Arrest the girl, and kill everyone else! Rip their skin and take out their bones! They will pay for invading the land of God……Ugh!

I was surprised and looked at Teneron. No, to be exact, Blasio’s sword that pierced Teneron’s shoulder.

Teneron looked at Blasio in disbelief.

“Wh- why…”

“I’m not going to enter on a ship that’s going to sink.”

“You will receive disasters…!! You bastard!”

Blasio turned towards the chapel door.

“Go. There is Prince Adrian and the pope in the chapel.”
