Seeing one of them die, Alon smirked. “Is that Crossel’s finger?”
Looking at the speed at which they were running, he thought they wouldn’t be normal guys, but when he saw them go down with one shot of an arrow, he wondered why were they so nervous about such trivial opponents!
The two paladines standing at the front door of the church and the monks lined up behind them were twenty men capable of fighting. Besides, eight apprentice paladines. It’s rare to see such a huge number gather together.
Priest Aron’s divine power was obviously great, but Alon felt it from afar. So he thought he must have felt it wrong.
However, when the other two came, Alon knew he had been fooled. The power of the devil possessed by those who appeared after the first one was beyond expectations.
Especially, the woman standing in the back. The moment his and her eyes met, he felt his body stiffen.
“Calm down!” Malcolm’s exclamation woke him up.
Ed could feel that he had a strong opponent. He glanced down from the roof of the church and opened his mouth.
“Are you the tenth?”
“I think so,” the woman smirked.
They obtained a blood stone, and they gained the power to process.
Basically, the protective shield the Blood stone has was always in operation. But was the first one was killed by a single arrow?
“You look like a demon hunter,” the woman murmured and beckoned.
“Can you two face each other alone?”
“I think it would be a little tough by myself, right?”
“Then you’re wasting time. I’ll help you after you catch only the demon hunter.”
At the end of those words, when Malcolm saw the woman leaping, a large man moved to stop her.
When he blocks the woman, she cannot stop the man from rushing like a chariot. So Malcolm trusted Ed and rushed forward with his shield out toward the man who was rushing like a chariot.
Aww!
Malcolm, pushed back by his shock, hardened his expression.
He bumped into an opponent who had been rushing with his bare body, and he was pushed back, even when he is wearing a body suit that strengthens his body with divine power. As he was startled by him, the woman had jumped up and landed on the floor. An arrow was held in her hand.
Awesome!
There was a hole in the woman’s chest and her blood was pouring out, but she didn’t care.
She broke the arrow in her hand, threw it on the floor, and looked up at the roof. A smile was drawn on the woman’s lips as she looked at Ed, who had already hung the next arrow.
He knew who the devil Diego was talking about the moment he looked at the woman. She was obviously human in appearance. But the power she possessed was incomparable to that of the other demon.
And the moment Ed saw the woman appear in front of the church, he knew.
She was showing a level that made Juan, who was covered in scars, come to mind.
Have humans entered the realm of higher demons?
The possibility of that is a matter to be questioned!
She had a blood stone, and Aron showed its location to Ed. The locations of her blood stones were different, but they were in the heart area.
So she fired an arrow as she winced into the heart area. But her reaction was unexpected. After the arrow got lodged in her chest, she grabbed her shaft and pulled it out. Her supernatural power was so great that she broke the arrow and threw it on the floor.
Ed’s strongest weapon was blocked. After all, she is a high-level demon. Aron opened his mouth as Ed frowned.
“May the glory of Astron be passed on to you. Let it shine.”
Aron whispered from behind, and a blue light began to shine over the bow that Ed was holding in his hand.
Ed smiled as he looked at the blue-glowing bow. It was difficult to receive blessings for each arrow, but seeing them hung on the bow, Aron had been very thoughtful. He lost an arrowhead made from a castle relic, but even this is enough to give him a good hit.
While Ed put two arrows on the string, the woman raised the dagger, looked at Ed, wrapped her hand around the blade, and slowly pulled out the dagger.
It seemed that the humans of Crossel could produce strong power only by using blood.
As soon as a drop of blood fell under her feet, Ed fired two arrows towards the woman’s feet. And she swung her dagger at Astron’s mark.
Ed sneaked behind her and hung his arrows at the protest. It was ridiculous that she made a leap as the token of Astron was hanging in the church hit by the power of the devil.
She threw her palms at Ed, and blood dripped all over the roof of the church. Instead of firing his arrows in succession, Ed fired two arrows again. And the woman disappeared again.
But where?
Before he could grasp it, a dagger flew by his side.
Ed kicked the woman in the side with his left foot as the dagger rotated in the direction it was flying.
Whoops!
With the woman’s body half crumpled, she bounced off and appeared behind Ed.
He felt her dagger down the crown of his head and ran backwards to catch her.
Bang!
The woman who collided with Astron’s token smiled with her body embedded in half.
“Would it be hard to catch him alive?”
Ed pointed an arrow at the woman and relaxed as she exhaled.
He found a perfect moment to shoot her. So, he responded with an arrow to her words. Again, she disappeared through space leap, and Ed turned around her and fired arrows in a row.
The woman who appeared through a space jump was shot in the shoulder and pushed back.
She glanced at the arrow lodged in her shoulder and then looked at Ed.
“How did you know?”
“You shouldn’t be so blatantly sprinkling blood and wishing I didn’t know.”
The members of Crossel already knew that blood was a medium. The reason that she was able to jump in space at first was because the blood that came out when she was hit by an arrow while jumping was splattered on Astron’s mark.
As she climbed up on the roof and sprinkled her blood first, he wondered what she was doing at first. But his experience, honed by long hours of gaming, allowed him to guess the way as she made her space leap.
So, he figured out the places where she could space leap, and as soon as she space leaped, she was hit by the arrow.
When the woman saw that the place where she had been shot freezes, she smirks, and then she grabs the arrow and pulls it out.
And slowly her gaze turned to Ed. After obtaining the Blood stone, his movements and everything excelled. But the demon was such a person who showed movement beyond him.
“Are you also Crossel’s finger?”
Ed restored his magical power little by little as he spoke to her.
“No. I’m Emily the apostle.”
Also, when he heard that the levels of the fingers were different, it must have been about the apostles. Now, he is looking forward to it.
At least it will give him more experience points than the fingers.
If he doesn’t do it sooner, the fingers fighting underneath could be killed by the paladine’s hands.
Now is the time to make a deal.
“You bastard!”
Malcolm and Alon pinpointed the tall man, but they couldn’t easily subdue it.
Despite his huge size, he was agile and they could not catch him when he started running away, but now he started to attack the monks.
Even if they were called combat investigators, their level was comparable to that of an apprentice paladine.
And that’s not enough to handle the blows of a large man. Seven have already died.
For Aron, it was a surprise.
“Concentrate!”
Malcolm shouted, chasing after his man, Alon stopped to think.
He has a different opinion and he could die in this investigation. So, he had to do his best to subdue this man. At that time, an arrow flew from somewhere and pierced the man’s thigh.
Ed saw them struggling down below in the situation and fired one arrow to bound the man’s feet.
And by freezing his thighs, he restricted the man’s movements.
Alon knew whose arrow it was, but he didn’t turn his head. When the opportunity came he had to seize it.
As Alon rushed in, he caught his eye on the man’s smirk. And he came swinging his fist, several times larger.
The size of the fist covered in blood was larger than Alon’s upper body. So, there was nowhere to escape, so he blocked it with a shield.
Aww!
Alon, whose shield was smashed and bounced off, vomited blood.
“Did the bastard hide this ability until now?”
The man did not use this skill, despite being in crisis several times during the fight so far. So they just believed that he had the same ability. While being vigilant like that, the blow he smashed shattered the relic-class shield and broke Alon’s left arm.
His bones shattered and his muscles tore apart, making it difficult to use his left arm right now.
While Alon retreated, Malcolm approached the man and was fighting. Not knowing what kind of ability he had, Malcolm was injuring his body little by little as he let out the attack.
The man with his feet tied seemed to be able to be subdued soon.
Emily drew an arrow from her body and glanced underneath her.
Seven arrows were already in her body. She was tenaciously blocking her heart so that her breathing doesn’t stop.
And she looked back at Ed. This is the first time space leap doesn’t work anymore.
Ed pointed his bow at Emily and she said,
“Then why don’t you reincarnate?”
Ed chuckled at Emily’s question.
“I don’t think I need your consent.”
Emily understood the meaning of Ed’s words, and her expression hardened.
Ed looked at Emily like that and started shooting arrows as if there was nothing to hear.
Emily frantically deflected the flying arrows, but two arrows hit her calves and her shoulders again. She didn’t want it to be this way, so she sprinkled her blood again.
Ed shot the protest again as if it didn’t matter anyway.
Emily said to Ed with a smile on her face.
See you next time!
Emily said that and immediately disappeared.
Aron’s side was among the places where her blood was spilled. And this time he pointed his bow, scanning for her new direction as she appeared.
Emily hugged Aron and smiled at Ed, then tried to make her leap through space.
But it was quicker for the arrow to hit her forehead.
With her head tilted back, her arm was cut off by Tom.
Emily swung her dagger and aimed at Aron. She had her arm cut off by Tom’s surprise attack.
Diego ran, hugged Aron, and went under the roof.
Then Aron reached out to Emily as well. The divine power emanating from his hand was nothing other than a special ability. It’s just the ability to seal off the power of the enemy possessed by the devil.
Emily tried to space leap again, but found that it didn’t work.
And as soon as Ed realized that, he swung his sword instead of an arrow.
Emily saw her own body torn in half. She had tried to stop it, knowing that the attack would cut the air instead, but it was in vain.
After being cut in half, Emily wondered if she would die in vain like this. But the ceremony did not last long.
As Emily fell to the floor, Ed rushed to her.
Even while her blood stone was cut in half, Ragrox did not appear.
It would be difficult if Ragrox appeared, but he would have been able to gain a fair amount of experience. Still, as an apostle, the experience points came in more than the intermediate demons.
“Is it not possible to make another manifestation right away?”
But it’s not possible to make manifestations in succession.
Ed went to the edge of the church roof and looked down to see Diego with Aron. After making sure they were both safe, Ed fired an arrow down the roof.
When the arms of the man whom the Paladines Malcolm and Alon were fighting with, were tied, an arrow shot by Ed pierced the head containing a blood stone.
His whole head froze and then shattered, bringing in the experience.
Thank God!
