Chapter 38 Divine Magic


Chapter 38 Divine Magic

What is it?

With no time to think, Karl subconsciously dodged sideways.

His feet seemed to be lightly touched, but his whole body suddenly swooped several feet, like a goshawk flying close to the ground.

Harpy Step!

Thanks to the blessing of the fragments of the divine domain, in just a few days, he had mastered this martial art and could even use it in actual combat.

The black shadow missed the target, turned around and swung his arm to stab again, obviously not intending to let the 'witness' go.

“Chi!”

The sound of the dagger piercing the air emerged and went straight to the vital point of his throat, which also made Kal’s skin tighten and his heart beat wildly.

“When…”

There was a crash.

The seemingly light cane in Karl's hand was actually made of metal, and it hit the incoming dagger heavily.

Huh?

Knight Squire!

Although his opponent's strength is slightly inferior to him, he is still at the level of a knight's squire.

The next moment.

Several rays of cold light appeared one after another, stabbing continuously and rapidly, forcing Karl to retreat continuously.

When he stopped, he was forced into a dark alley.

I don’t know when the alley was covered with spider webs, and there was sticky liquid under my feet, and there was even a peculiar smell.

"Hiss..."

Two black shadows slowly crawled out from behind, and their green eyes were particularly cold and penetrating in the darkness.

Karl, who often visited the Black City and was already used to the dark environment, could see the whole scene clearly in an instant, and felt a chill on the back of his head.

Monster?

Human or spider?

Three 'humanoid spiders' with six arms and three heads slowly surrounded them.

There is another creature like this on the ground not far away, but its body was cut apart by a sharp blade and it cannot die anymore.

In addition,

there is also a figure wrapped in spider silk.

The figure is wrapped in spider silk, and the clothes exposed are a bit familiar. It seems that I have seen it somewhere?

Before he could think about it, the black shadow had already pounced upon him again.

In terms of strength, the monster is not as good as Carl, but it has six arms, which means it attacks more frequently and makes its attacks more difficult to intercept.

“Bang!”

In the darkness, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up.

Lighting Technique!

The sudden light caused the three-headed monster to subconsciously close its eyes, let out a hissing scream, and even stopped moving.

photophobia?

They seem to be more afraid of light than the people in the Black City.

Karl's thoughts were spinning, but his movements did not pause at all. He dodged and rushed out of the encirclement, and at the same time, he swung his left hand backwards.

Fire Seal!

“Boom!”

A ball of flame appeared out of thin air and rushed towards the three-headed monster.

The flames formed into a shock wave, encompassing the entire dark alley and rolling towards the three-headed monster.

In an instant.

A burnt smell appeared.

“Zizi……”

"Ah!"

The monsters seemed to be extremely lacking in resistance to flames. They let out shrill screams one after another. Their bodies curled up and rolled on the ground, unable to launch an effective counterattack at all.

The spider silk all over the alleyway was burning crazily.

Huh?

Karl raised his eyebrows and pressed his left hand again.

Fire Seal!

Fire Seal!

Fire Seal! ! !

While you are sick, I will kill you.

“Boom…”

A stream of flames swept across, and the three-headed monster was also ignited in flames, struggling crazily on the ground.

Just for a moment, there was no sound one after another, the body turned into charcoal, and the spider silk in the alleyway also disappeared.

“Tsk!”

Karl stopped his movements and tsked softly:

“Sure enough, the magic is more chic, handsome, and more lethal, but these are What?”

Judging from the speed and strength displayed by these monsters, if they cannot cast spells, even the peak-level knight attendants may not be their opponents.

What's more, no one can guarantee that they have no other means.

For example...

Spinning silk?

Karl stepped forward cautiously, checked the body on the ground, and finally stopped in front of the cocoon wrapped in spider webs.

Picking up the dagger and slicing open the cocoon, a familiar face came into view.

“Dina?”

Touching his chin, seeing that Dinah’s eyelids were trembling and that she might wake up at any time, Karl jumped up onto the wall.

A moment later.

Dina struggled to get up, looking at the field with confused eyes, and then slapped her face twice.

It seemed that he wanted to prove that he was not dreaming. Karl, who was hiding in the dark, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. This woman was so cruel that she was even willing to use such force to slap herself.

It hurts to look at it.

Shaking his head, he left quietly.

The next day.

“All inspectors gather!”

Dina, whose arms were wrapped with gauze, had a stern look on her face, her eyes swept across the crowd, and her voice suddenly said:

"Don't look lazy. Today we are going to destroy the evil god's stronghold. We may encounter danger at any time."

"Really or not?" Some people's expressions changed drastically after hearing this. Regardless of the reason, they first tried to Whether to shirk:

“Can you not go?”

His statement attracted many people to nod in agreement.

There is no one here who has not been pampered and raised. When he hears there is danger, his first reaction is to run away.

"No!"

Dina snorted coldly:

"Don't worry, the commander-in-chief this time is the Holy See Bishop. The night watchman team is the main force, and we and the police are assisting."

“Bishop?” Carey looked surprised:

“Bishop Antonio?”

"Yes." Dinah nodded:

"That's him."

"Wow..."

Everyone was in an uproar.

This is the bishop of Signuo City. His status is comparable to that of the city lord. He actually takes action himself.

Karl also looked surprised.

Today's action is most likely related to Dinah's encounter yesterday, but he did not expect that it would alert a bishop. The last time the Fire Thief's stronghold was destroyed, it was not so grand.

Bishop Antonio has a distinguished status, and his appearance also means that the guardian knights of the Holy See will also take action.

That is an official knight!

Hmm...

‘According to Senior Sister Sibel, the strength of a formal knight can be compared to that of a stronger intermediate wizard apprentice. ’

‘And if a senior wizard apprentice masters a powerful witchcraft, he can easily kill an official knight. ’

‘Even, the Great Knight. ’

As for the wizard.

This kind of existence can be compared to the top existence in human society, the legendary knight.

certainly.

This is only a rough division.

The strength of wizard apprentices varies greatly depending on their mastery of witchcraft, whether they have magical items, etc.

Even if they are all intermediate wizard apprentices, some can easily kill knights, while others may not even be as good as knights' attendants.

I wonder if the priests and bishops in Morningside Church have any special means. Is it possible that they just have a special status and are loved by the gods?

If this is the case, it seems unreasonable to be able to control knights and even great knights.

"Divide into three ways."

Dina pointed casually:

"You, you, and the rest of you, follow me and set off!"

Among the people she was referring to were Carl and Carey.

Not long after, a group of inspectors set out in great force, and Dinah waved to call Karl to her side.

"Yesterday..."

After thinking about it, she hesitated and said:

"Did you encounter anything after you left the theater?"

"What did you encounter?" Karl looked confused:

"I took a carriage and left after the show. What could I encounter? Sir, where were you?"

"Forget it."

Dina shook her head and waved her hand:

"It's okay, go and do your work."

She just asked casually, not thinking that the person who rescued her last night would be Karl.

after all.

It has not been long since Carl became a knight's squire.

Not long after.

Everyone gathered together with the Holy See's night watchman team and rushed to a courtyard in the south of the city with an order.

First surround the courtyard, then bend the bow and set up an arrow.

"Let go!"

"Collapse!"

Bows and arrows fell like rain, and the arrows were tied with torches. When they landed on houses and huts, they immediately ignited a blazing fire.

Obviously.

The people in the Holy See also know that their target is afraid of fire.

Before the flames, a priest walked out holding a Bible and looking piously towards the sky.

Then he made a few empty strokes in front of him and whispered:

"Great Lord of the Morning, loyal believers here pray for your blessings."

" Boom! "

A ball of white light suddenly emerged from his body, covering the entire place in an instant. Karl, who was in the crowd, felt his body heat up and his whole body was filled with power.

Is this...

Witchcraft?

No!

It’s magic!
