Radiant Dragon’s Otherworldly Reincarnation - Chapter 274 : Chapter 274

Chapter 274. Ganging Up is the Truth (2)

While Patrick was focused on the black mage Lust.

Lust’s disciples, who had received the order, smiled as they looked at the forces of the Schneider Duchy.

“It’s been a while since we had a party.”

“Then shall we have some fun?”

“Drenched in blood, that is.”

They quickly began to cast.

Then, a magic circle made of demonic energy appeared at their feet.

The mage from the Tower of Truth who saw this quickly shouted.

“Stop them! They’re summoning undead!”

But it was already too late.

“Arise! People of the dead.”

Kwajik! Udeuk! Ppudeudeuk!

Countless groups of the dead broke through the ground and rose.

Skeletons, ghouls, zombies, Big Faces, and so on….

In an instant, undead monsters numbering over a thousand appeared.

The brows of the mage dispatched from the Tower of Truth furrowed at the sight.

“For just three of them to summon this many.”

“It seems they’re no ordinary black mages.”

“Uuuuhm….”

The hierarchy of a black mage could be determined by the level of the undead monsters they summoned.

The women before them had summoned over a thousand undead with just a simple casting without any special preparation.

This was proof that the level of these three was not ordinary.

And if these three were at this level, the person they called master would be an even bigger figure.

Indeed….

Kwaaang! Kwaaaaaang!

Far away, she was clashing with Patrick, creating thunderous roars.

They didn’t even dare to approach that space where Patrick’s Aura Blade, the flames of hell, and lightning were rampant.

It was then.

“Fire!”

As the black mages summoned the undead, the Elves were the first to fire arrows.

And not just any arrows, but arrows cloaked in the flames of spirits.

Kwakwang! Kwang! Kwaang! Kwaang!

The rain of flaming arrows pouring down on the undead horde dealt fatal damage to the zombies.

Even if they couldn’t directly help Patrick’s battle, they had to deal with the disciples for sure.

But the black mages didn’t just stand there either.

They took out skull wands from their bosoms and began a long casting in earnest.

Woooooong.

Then, a complex and large magic circle, incomparable to before, was revealed.

One in the air.

Two on the ground.

It was clear at a glance that the monster being summoned now was on a different level from the previous undead.

This was the standard battle style of black mages.

First, they summon undead as a time-buying wall, and in the meantime, they intend to summon the real thing.

“Stop them! Don’t let them cast!”

The mages from the Tower of Truth, who knew the black mages’ battle style well, shouted urgently.

At that, magic swordsmen flew over the heads of the undead.

“Do you logically think we would just let you be?”

Riman Ciera, who flew quickly, tried to split the black mage’s head open.

No matter how powerful a monster they tried to summon, if the summoner was eliminated before that, it would be over.

But….

Kwakwakwakwa….

Riman’s attempt was a step too late.

The black mage finished the summoning a step ahead, and something that appeared from the magic circle in the air spewed out a vicious flame and attacked the magic swordsmen.

“Dodge!”

“Keuk….”

The magic swordsmen quickly threw themselves to dodge the flame.

The flame that spewed onto the spot they had dodged from heated the air intensely.

And the being that fully emerged from the magic circle and revealed itself was none other than….

“An undead Wyvern?”

“Damn it, it’s an Elder species too.”

“To think something like that is undead….”

A Wyvern, one of the most dangerous among flying monsters.

Among them, beings that had lived long and repeatedly evolved to grow their bodies and strength were called Elder Wyverns.

These black mages, it was unknown where they got it, but they had turned the corpse of such a being into an undead.

And that wasn’t all.

“They’re coming on the ground too!”

“Damn it, stay sharp!”

Unlike the Elder Dragon undead in the sky, the monster summoned on the ground was a demon-type monster.

“Keuheooooong!”

Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound.

And….

“Kahahahaha! It’s been hundreds of years since I’ve been in the mortal world.”

The demon Dead Pit, who is said to whip and torment sinners who have fallen into hell.

“This is crazy.”

“To summon two demons of hell.”

Even the knights of the Schneider Duchy, who were used to monsters, were witnessing the demons of hell for the first time.

The summoned Dead Pit summoned a whip of fire in the air and swung it wide.

Kwaaaaaang!

A terrifying blaze swept over the knightly order and Orc warriors fighting at the forefront.

“Keuuuk….”

“Kantata?! Are you okay?”

“This is nothing… Keuuuk….”

Even the Orcs who had evolved into High Orcs were rendered combat-incapable in one blow, so powerful was the Dead Pit’s whip.

The knights hastily took care of the fallen Orcs.

“Hahaha. Suffer more!”

The Dead Pit launched another attack towards those humans.

But before that….

Kwaaang!

A single streak of light first struck the Dead Pit.

“Don’t touch my subordinates!”

It was Sanson who blocked the Dead Pit’s attack.

Sanson, who had been watching the situation while commanding from the rear, thought that further command was meaningless and quickly ran forward.

And he challenged the Dead Pit head-on.

A full-powered Flashing Dragon Strike.

It wasn’t enough to match Patrick or April, but it was still the full power of himself, a 7th star knight.

With this….

“Kehehehe. It tickles.”

The Dead Pit had a cruel smile on his lips.

He had been slightly pushed back by Sanson’s Flashing Dragon Strike, but that was all.

He himself didn’t seem to have taken much impact.

And then….

“Now you take mine!”

He swung the whip of fire held in one hand wide and struck down at Sanson from the head.

Sanson momentarily thought he had to dodge, but he remembered the Dead Pit’s wide attack range from the first attack.

‘I won’t dodge.’

To block it, he poured his Aura Blade fully into his twin swords and raised them crossed above his head.

Kwaaaaaaaang!

“Keuuuk….”

For a moment, one of Sanson’s knees buckled.

He had managed to block the Dead Pit’s attack, but his body had bent from the impact.

“Hahaha. For a human, you’re quite something. To block a strike from me, a demon of hell?”

“…Ptooey!”

Sanson spat out bloody saliva.

And he got up from his spot and stared at the Dead Pit with blazing eyes.

‘He’s stronger than me. But….’

So what about it?

[In the first place, the Way of Martial Arts was created for the weak to face the strong. So don’t get scared just because you meet someone strong. That’s the worst. Rather than that….]

Ppudeudeuk.

“I’ll chew you up and spit you out.”

He had to show a fighting spirit close to madness.

Just as someone had advised.

“Kahahahaha. Come, strong human!”

“Haaaaat!”

Sanson challenged the Dead Pit head-on.

“Support the Captain!”

“Vice-Captain!?”

“I’m fine, so support the Captain!”

April shouted urgently.

And she, who was shouting like this, was not idle either.

“Keuheoooong!”

A giant three-headed dog with three heads.

She alone was handling the all-too-famous demonic beast of hell, Cerberus.

Dodging the attack of the Cerberus that rushed at her with its giant mouth open, she stood on top of the Cerberus’ head with both feet.

And then….

“Heup!”

A flash of the powerfully swung Aura Blade.

It was an attack with all her might.

But….

Kakakakakakakakak.

‘What kind of hide is….’

The hide of the Cerberus easily blocked even April’s Aura Blade.

And as if it were nothing, it shook its body violently and shook off April who was on its head.

And as April was lifted into the air, the Cerberus opened its mouth wide, aiming for that moment.

There was nowhere to dodge in the air.

“April!”

Elione, who was terrified at the sight, tried to help her by calling the spirit of the wind.

But her opponent was April.

She bent her waist in the air like a bow.

And then….

“Heup!”

Paaang!

Using the elasticity generated by strongly snapping her upper body forward, her figure shot forward like an arrow.

If Patrick had seen it, it was a perfect shift of center of gravity, enough to be called the standard of Bow Body Ejection.

Thanks to that, the Cerberus that tried to swallow her in one bite had to chew on empty air.

And April, who had landed on the ground, muttered with a cold expression.

“If the Aura Blade doesn’t work….”

At this moment, what came to her mind was someone’s teaching.

[Most problems in the world can eventually be solved by beating them down.]

“I’ll beat it down and break it.”

The Aura Blade on April’s twin swords shed its refined form and emanated a much fiercer momentum.

Holding the Aura Blade with the momentum of erupting flames in both hands, she charged towards the Cerberus once again.

[ Twin Dragons Eight Sword Forms: Third Form: Flashing Dragon Strike ]

Kwaaaaaang!

Flashing Dragon Strike, despite being a sword strike, was a technique with a strong feeling of beating down rather than cutting or stabbing.

“Keoheoong!”

That powerful attack couldn’t pierce the Cerberus’ hide, but the impact itself was more than enough.

The Cerberus, which was hit squarely on the crown of its middle head, screamed in pain.

But….

“Kehaaaang!”

As expected of a demonic beast of hell.

Even though it had taken a hit, it still roared with ferocity and rushed to chew April up.

But….

“Let’s see how long you last.”

April was not an easy woman either.

If she lost here, the Young Master’s teachings (?) would be proven wrong.

She could not tolerate such a situation before dirt entered her two eyes.

So….

“If it doesn’t work, I’ll do it until it does.”

Kwaaang! Kwaaaaaang! Kwaaaaaaaaaang!

[ Flashing Dragon Strike: Modified Form: Triple Barrage ]

“Keoheoong!”

‘If even this doesn’t work….’

Kadeudeuk.

Killing intent swirled in April’s eyes towards the Cerberus, which was still roaring with ferocity.

Kwang! Kwangkwang! Kwangkwangkwang!

Quadruple Barrage, Quintuple Barrage… Ninth Barrage, Tenth Barrage, Eleventh….

“Waaaah….”

“She’s vicious.”

Those who were watching clicked their tongues.

Among the three heads of the Cerberus, the one in the very middle was sinking in like a turtle.

If that head could speak, it would have argued why it was being hit when the other two were left alone.

Eventually, a single streak of golden light flying once again towards the head that had sunk in like a turtle neck….

Kwaaaaaang!

“Kaeheeeeng!”

Finally, it made the Cerberus scream.

And the middle head, which had been intensively hit by April, stuck out its tongue and collapsed.

It had died.

As one of the three heads died and drooped, the two heads on the left and right were greatly flustered.

It was difficult to move in this situation.

And above all….

“One in twenty-seven strikes…. Then I just need to strike fifty-four more times.”

That human was too scary.

In the end, the Cerberus had to make a choice.

“Keuheoooooooong!”

The two heads howled loudly, and a red spatial rift appeared in front of them.

And then….

“No? Don’t go!”

The black mage who had summoned the Cerberus from behind screamed, but as if it didn’t matter, the Cerberus returned to where it came from through the rift.

It was a voluntary forced return by the summoner.

And this….

“Kyaaaaaaaak!”

It was bound to inflict a massive shock on the summoner.

The black mage screamed and clutched her head in agony.

Blood flowed from her mouth, eyes, nose, and ears.

Normally, there is no set hierarchical relationship between a summoner and a summoned creature.

But in the case of this black mage and the Cerberus, the Cerberus was thoroughly the one in power.

She had barely managed to make a contract with the hellhound, which she normally wouldn’t be able to summon at her level, with the help of her master.

In that process, her demonic energy and life force were used as collateral, and the unilateral choice regarding the termination of the contract was also not hers, but the Cerberus’.

The result of a thoroughly unfair contract.

Even though the Cerberus had unilaterally terminated the contract, she had to pay a terrible price.

And as she fell….

“The number of undead has decreased.”

“Now is the time. Advance!”

“Uwoooooooooh!”

Just with one of the three black mages falling, the number of endlessly summoned undead decreased a bit.

Taking advantage of this momentum, the knightly order and the Orc warriors leaped forward.

And….

“Sister-in-law. Are you alright?”

“Sir Tutan.”

Tutan, who had evolved beyond a High Orc to an Orc Warlord, approached April and took care of her.

A rather sweet appearance and consideration for an Orc….

“Please take care of yourself. Sister-in-law, you must bear the great warrior brother’s child.”

“……”

‘This sexually harassing Orc….’

I should just beat him up.

So thought April, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it.

For the Orcs, this was their way of showing consideration.

And above all….

‘Is this my limit?’

As Tutan said, she had to be careful now.

Looking at her hand, the hand holding the sword was trembling due to lack of grip strength.

It was the first time for her to use this many Flashing Dragon Strikes in a real battle.

Moreover, each and every strike was a Flashing Dragon Strike unleashed with all her might.

As a price, her body had reached its limit.

Honestly, if the Cerberus hadn’t retreated first, the outcome of the battle would have been hard to predict.

‘It was fortunate that I could deceive it with my momentum.’

She let out a sigh and said.

“I will recover my body for a while in the rear while using Aura Blessing. Sir Tutan, please support Captain Sanson.”

“Oooooh. Please leave it to me, sister-in-law. This Tutan will do his best to protect this land until the day you give birth to brother’s healthy child.”

“……”

I can’t do anything since we’re in the middle of a battle right now.

I’ll see you later. Later….
