[410] Task Force (2)

If you go about 2 hours by carriage from the city of Creas, you will come to the small port town of San Ferros.

Galliant is a world-class resort, but the scenery here outside the holiday season was just a secluded fishing village.

Arriving around lunchtime, Shirone bought a handful of fish fillets from the stall.

The fish pho, which is said to be delicious only when slightly spoiled, was chewy like jelly and had the deep taste of the sea.

There was no liner, so I thought I would have to hire a captain.

The fare is expensive, but the money saved so far will not be enough.

When I asked the villagers, they said that it takes about an hour for the boats that left early in the morning to come back with the meat.

Since there was nowhere to go, Shirone walked to the breakwater and looked at the distant sea.

It's not the first time I've been on a trip, and my teammates are waiting for me on the island, but I felt like I was left alone in the world.

'School must be lunchtime now.'

Shirone didn't think about it.

There is nowhere to go back to. shouldn't have been

"Are you Aryan Shirone?"

A woman in a costume completely different from that of the Tormia Kingdom was standing behind Shirone.

Even in the warm weather, the sleeves came down to the wrists, and the hood hanging down the back was thicker than winter clothes.

The look of her biting on a black nipple was very different, but the woman's eyes were deep and mysterious, so it was an atmosphere that made it impossible to look at her with strange eyes.

Shirone turned her attention to the strange creature floating above the woman's head.

It was a soft and transparent monster, and the sphere inside it was generating an electric field as it rotated.

An auto prism that scatters light to create a transparent effect in a specific range.

It had almost no fighting power, but it was a monster listed in the 4th tier of summoning magic with great utility.

Shirone gave a wary look.

In the worst situation, he would pick up Armand and fight, but if he was a wizard who summoned a Tier 4 monster, he would have to be seen as inferior in terms of ability.

"Who are you? how can i get my name… … ."

"My name is Zulu. Gaold told me to bring you."

"huh? Everything?"

For a moment, being embarrassed by the bizarre use of language, Shirone opened her eyes wide and looked directly at the woman's face.

"yes? Zulu?"

There was no way he didn't know the name of the world's only and strongest summoning wizard who could match a tier 1 lich.

In disbelief, Shirone pointed her finger at her and checked again.

"… … Zulu?"

"Yes, Zulu."

Zulu nodded nonchalantly and said.

"I don't have much time. I need to cross the border before dark, so follow me."

"Where is the president of the association?"

"They have already arrived at Galliant and are preparing for the Gangran. Are you going or not?"

"I'll go."

When I gave up my exhausting search and approached Zulu, she disarmed the auto prism and cast a mass teleport.

The landscape seemed to be pulled into a single point, and then expanded into a new landscape.

It was halfway up the mountain behind the port.

The breakwater where the two of them were was small at the far end of the field of vision, and at the bottom of the mountain was a village of fishing villagers.

Zulu summoned the grotesque Kaidra from there.

Its smooth, hairless skin had a long snout like an awl, and its huge claws that supported its body seemed to be holding a mountain.

Contrary to his hideous appearance, Kaidra rubbed his beak on Zulu like a child, then knelt down and let one wing hang down.

Shirone climbed on the wings following Zulu.

Caydra's backbone protrudes out of the skin like a shark's fin, so it blocks air resistance and allows it to sit in the hollow of the backbone, giving it a good sense of stability.

"be careful. I will fly high."

Caydra, flapping her wings and pushing off the ground with her two legs, flew straight up as soon as she surfaced.

Shirone, tired of her pale face, stared at the fast-approaching sky.

When I started flying in normal orbit, the ground was only a distant dot.

"A lift-based rogue named Kaidra. They don't need as much oxygen, so they can fly at higher altitudes than strength-based creatures. In this way, the probability of avoiding the search system Joner's algorithm increases."

Searching the sky is not too difficult for zoners who have a spirit zone with a basic diameter of 2 kilometers.

However, as the altitude increased, the shape of the spirit zone had to be transformed into a target type or sniper mode, so it was natural that the search range would decrease.

Shirone finally felt a sense of reality.

The person in front of me was really a Zulu.

"Thank you for coming to pick me up. To be honest, I never thought that such a great person would come to greet me."

"Gaold said the Association would move sooner or later. It looks like there is stillness inside. I fixed it as soon as possible and took the lead to heaven. So I was in charge of the transport. Right now, I am on my way to pick up a woman named Siena."

"Oh, I see."

"Of course, I would have come even if the matter was not urgent. Sein said he would use anything that could be used to produce results. I'll be in charge of utilities on the team, so you can tell me anything you need for the mission."

Zulu's words made sense.

From now on, we need to move organically as a team. Regardless of seniors and juniors, they must do their best in their respective duties.

"yes! I wish you well!"

Shirone bowed her head courageously.

* * *

Kentra city.

The meat produced in Kentra, Tormia's famous pastoral area, is designated as a royal tribute because of its high quality.

The catering business was also active, and an entire street was filled with restaurants.

People wearing cowboy hats often passed by, leather clothes were popular, and whips sold like hot cakes.

However, the reason why Siena decided to meet here wasn't because the meat was delicious or to buy Kentra specialties.

It was because this was exactly the halfway point when they started from Kreas and Baska.

Siena checked the restaurant sign and opened the door.

Compared to Creas, the atmosphere was more conventional, and although reservations were made, the seats were sparsely empty.

After emptying the glass of water the waiter poured out, she anxiously waited for the person she would meet today.

There were about 20 minutes left until the appointment time, but it was still unsure if he would come out.

No, if you're sane, there's no way you'll come out.

After seeing the match, I didn't contact you once, but I only got a certified 5th grade congratulatory letter, so I made a lunch appointment.

That too by rapid telegram.

There was no one who received a telegram at dawn, prepared it in a hurry, and went all the way to Kentra City to eat meat.

'Because it's worth the bottom line.'

The door opened with a bell and a man entered.

Parka Kuan, an instructor at the Kaizen Swordsmanship Academy.

The cold eyes watching the atmosphere in the hall were still the same, but the outfit was different from the last time they met, and they seemed to be quite careful.

Kuan's icy stare only softened a little when he saw Siena sitting at the table.

As he moved his body with a limp, all eyes of the nobles focused on him.

I never tried to hide the fact that my legs were uncomfortable, but I always felt like a loser in the crowd.

Especially when people's eyes shifted from Kuan to Siena, I felt the urge to cut down everyone in this place.

Siena stood up and raised her hand.

As per his personality, he couldn't even give a friendly smile, but he had an attitude that didn't care about people's gazes.

There is also Armin who sacrificed both eyes for her.

The fact that Kuan's legs were uncomfortable didn't bother Siena at all.

Being conscious of prejudice is not something that can be hidden, so Kuando could feel Siena's sincerity.

Maybe that's why I didn't even know the topic and didn't know if I had come this far.

"You came. Sorry for the rude request."

"As this is an urgent telegram, I thought there must be a reason. For now, please sit down."

The food was served, but the two were still silent. I was just concentrating on cutting the meat and putting it in my mouth.

Whoever it was, there was no immunity in this position.

Still, Kuan, a man, mustered up the courage to speak to me for the first time.

"Congratulations. Certified 5th class wizard. You are really cool at such a young age."

Siena couldn't put it off any longer.

She didn't have much time, and if Kuan refused, she had to leave immediately for Galliant.

"I sent you a telegram because I have a request for you."

It was a strange word to say in return for congratulations, so Kuan blinked while holding the tableware.

Then he nodded his head and said.

"Yes, you say."

Siena explained the project.

Information that could put the team at risk was blocked, but the world's notice would end tomorrow, so the content was core and nothing harsh.

"… … So, I wanted to have at least one hitman in the team. I think Mr. Kuan is the right person."

Kuan, who remained motionless until the end of the story, dropped the tableware onto the plate with a rattling sound. And she gulped down the water as if she had lost her appetite.

Siena calmly waited.

It's no different from saying that I'm going to die. It will leave a stigma in history.

Persuasion is impossible anyway.

From now on, it was entirely up to him to decide.

Kuan turned his gaze to the dining room floor, lost in thought. Then he looked back at Siena and said.

"Can I ask you one question?"

"Anything. Any information that can be revealed."

"Why me?"

Siena's eyes fell coldly.

"As you can see, my leg is not intact. And for me, the legs are an important test. Why does it have to be me?"

"That's Kuan-san's skills… … ."

Siena swallowed the compliment in her throat.

There was no way he didn't know how Kuan had come to this place. No man would drive all the way to lunch with a woman he didn't even like.

Armin had sent him off with his heart, but he thought that he shouldn't use Kuan's heart.

I just wanted to reveal the truth and wait for his decision.

"Kuan-san, it doesn't matter when you die."

Siena said with a determined expression.

"I heard that there are no parents, no siblings, no connections. Even if Mr. Kuan dies, there is no force that can move. I thought there was no need to take care of it even if things went wrong."

Kuan looked at Siena with blank eyes.

No matter how much you say this to someone's face.

Somehow, from the moment I received the urgent telegram, I thought things were going well.

"But never underestimate your skills. Kuan-san's swordsmanship… … ."

"Kuk-kuk. Whoop whoop whoop!"

Kuan lowered his head and laughed with his shoulders trembling, and Siena stopped talking with a nervous expression.

"Even when I die, I don't have to take care of it? If you really thought so… … ."

Kuan opened his eyes and bit his lips.

"You've come to the right place."

Now I know, why was this woman.

There is no pity as much as there is no prejudice.

To him, who was tired of the pretentious life of a human being, he showed self-deprecation.

Kuan withdrew his earlier thoughts.

Still, it seems that God is still looking into her life.

it's heaven

Could there be a more suitable place for a sword demon's tomb?

Kuan got up from his seat on the table.

"Let's go. It seems urgent. There is nothing to do other than prepare. The personal affairs were already done 10 years ago."

"I'd appreciate it if you would, but at least a message… … ."

"Do not worry. It's a decision I made as a single prosecutor. It will be too late if you prepare yourself at the moment of death. There is no need to look back on the way to the battlefield."

It was a bit of an extreme resolution, but it was hard to find a more suitable person for the role of a hitman.

Regardless of their motive, a suicide commando who takes on the future of mankind and plunges into the fire.

Siena sincerely respected his resolve.

"thank you."

Kuan, as a swordsman, also lowered his head as if swearing by a sword.

"I am."

===============================

[411] Task Force (3)

Kaidra, a mysterious bird flying toward Galliant Island, spotted a cargo ship crossing the open sea and lowered its altitude.

As Zulu freed Kydra, the four, including Siena and Kuan, began plummeting toward the sea at high speed.

Zulu and Siena use fly magic, and Shirone spreads her wings to control the speed of her fall.

Godot may not be a familiar environment for the prosecutor Kuan, but he was checking the position of the ship without blinking.

The ability to offset gravitational acceleration by generating external gravitational force with muscle vibration was not inferior to the wizard's skills in the slightest.

Siena admired the skill of the death magician, whom she had only heard about through rumors.

A person who was evaluated as an unrivaled talent in swordsmanship movement 10 years ago.

Such a man lost his Achilles heel. As if he had lost an eye for himself.

'Come to think of it, they look alike.'

The four of them hurled themselves toward the vessel and landed on the uninhabited aft deck.

At the same time, Zulu summoned Autoprism, making everyone invisible.

'As expected, it's easy to solve because talented people gather.'

How many people can infiltrate a boat floating in the sea and go to Galliant without being noticed by anyone?

If Sein had been there, he would have been able to block out the sound with Equilibrium.

No matter how dangerous heaven is, I thought that a team like this would not be easily defeated.

The warehouse was loaded with land products.

The four of them went to the piled up bags of rice in the corner and sat down with their backs facing each other.

"Once we arrive at the port, Autoprism cannot be summoned. Because there is a risk of getting caught by Jonah. Flu will be waiting for you at the mid-junction, so you have to get out as undetected as possible."

Siena handed the robe to Kuan.

Zulu can cover his face enough with the clothes he is wearing now, and Shirone can solve it neatly by using the Diamond Armament.

An hour later, the ship docked in the harbor. There was a commotion outside the warehouse, and the door opened hastily.

The four men, who had been hiding against the wall, slipped through the door as soon as the sailors entered.

On the deck, workers from the island were busy loading cargo, so no one cared about the four of them.

When we went down to the dock, it was crowded with ship mechanics, freight forwarders, warehouse managers, and traders.

Jess, who had a deep relationship with Shirone, was also busily running between the docks, soliciting tourists.

"now! We'll lift your load! We will also guide you to the Kergo ruins, a specialty of Galliante! Interpreters are available!"

Shirone put on the robe of the Diamond Armed Forces and gently turned her head to look at Jess.

'It's the same, Jess. Is Yuna doing well?'

There was no way the place would be empty just because the parrot thieves had left, but it seemed like they were living a healthy life in their own way.

"huh? Who is it?"

When Jess turned around, Shirone gently lowered her head and followed the group out of the dock.

I wanted to say hello, but there was nothing to say as I was leaving the world and heading for the limb.

'Be happy, Jess.'

Jess, who was staring blankly at Shirone, approached Jess with tears in her eyes.

"Ugh, why are there so few customers today? huh? Jess, what's wrong? As if I saw a ghost. Who's here?"

"No, I feel strange for some reason. I mean those people."

The friend looked at the figures in Hood and frowned. It seemed that Jess' bad habit had come out again.

"Hey, don't worry about people like that. It's bloody just looking at it. If I get caught wrongly, I can't even pick a bone."

Another friend agreed.

"As a solicitor for 10 years, my intuition is the same. Those people, it smells of great danger."

Jess couldn't look away from his friends until they disappeared.

I don't know why, but the feeling of nostalgia permeated me.

'Come to think of it… … Are you living well?'

"hey! Jim here! Do you have a handyman?"

A tall man got off the ferry and waddled around with a luggage bag in each hand.

Jess hurriedly came to his senses. And he raised his hand and ran faster than anyone else.

"yes yes! going!"

* * *

Kergo Ruins.

Gaold, Gangnan, Sein, Zulu, Flu, Ethella, Siena, Kuan, Shirone.

The nine people who participated in this project gathered together for the first time.

There was no need for a separate briefing because the horses came and went.

There were several agents within the ruins, but they were all resolved on the line of the people who had been waiting for a day.

Of course, being careless is prohibited, so it's good to cover your face.

However, the key target, Gaold, flipped the hood and took off his robe and threw it to the ground.

Gangnan bit his molar and said.

"Wear it when you say nice things."

"stuffy. Anyway, if you go in now, it's over. From now on we go to Kergo Autonomous Region."

Sein added.

"If there's someone waiting at the Guffin's door, I'll pick them based on their skills. Perhaps one of these members could be supplemented."

The group made their way to the terraced altar on the east side of the central temple.

This is where Shirone opened the Immortal Function and passed the labyrinth test.

A native of Kergo was guarding the entrance, but it was different from the person Shirone had seen before.

Since Chief Khadum had lost his lifespan, he didn't know it, but the situation of the Kergo tribe must have changed considerably.

When I visited with my friends a year ago, he was a native who boasted of a terrifying prayer, but when he saw Gaold and his friends, he gulped down his saliva rather nervously.

If the gatekeeper was also a Kergo warrior, there was no way he wouldn't be able to feel the refined aura like the blades spun by 9 people at the same time.

Gaold strode over and spoke.

"Keltia, Lo Hoima. Akrasia, Widmia Benzene."

knock on my door Then it will open.

It was a code of memories that remained even in Shirone's memory.

However, the reaction of the natives was different than before. He shook his head with a serious face and spoke in Kergo.

"Not now. There are too many people waiting to go to heaven. Come back in three days."

When Gaold gently crinkled his forehead and swung the back of his hand, the native flew away with a popping sound.

Shirone, who was staring at the aboriginal who fell to the ground and didn't even move, asked Sein.

"Are you mad at what the natives said?"

"Gaold doesn't know Kergore."

"… … ."

When Gaold activated the device, the walls of the altar caved in, creating a door.

Gangnan added a word.

"But I hate Kergo."

Upon entering the altar, the square spiral staircase descended endlessly.

After going down for about 20 minutes, the corridor continued. As before, there were two natives guarding the iron gate.

From this point on, it is a Kergoman world with no intersections with outside civilizations.

The natives had no qualms about revealing tattoos on their bodies, and were far more aggressive than those guarding them above.

"for a moment. how did you get in Starting today, the entrance to heaven… … ."

Gaold struck the chin with the back of his hand, and the native fell with a thump.

The colleague tried to shout with angry eyes, but then the back of the other hand turned his chin.

Shirone stared blankly at the two natives, who passed out with a bloody nose, and thought that this shouldn't be the case.

If you open the Immortal Function in the Achievement and Sacrifice Room, you will be welcomed by everyone and go to the Guffin's Door. There was no need to stir up trouble with Kergo.

"Hey, can't we just do what's right? I know a little bit about the natives here, but if you reveal all eight eyes of an angel… … ."

"angel?"

Gaold stood tall and turned his head.

"Shirone, this is just a toy made by my classmate."

Shirone shut his mouth.

I felt a terrible anger in Gaold, but it wasn't just because of it. I could see why he hated Kergo.

An octagonal room appeared inside the iron door.

There were three men guarding the iron gate on the other side, and in the middle stood a man with a white tattoo, symbolizing Kergo priest.

Even in Shirone's eyes, the level of force was different from those who had stood in his way.

However, Gaold didn't even look at him and went into the altar where the eight orbs of the maze were floating.

Priest Kergo moved his steps with a grim expression on his face.

"Who are you? A stranger who dares to enter the holy angel's room… … ."

Before he could finish his words, Gaold grabbed whatever orb he could find and cast a spell.

As soon as the simple air press, which had nothing to do with magic, went in, the altar rang with a thud.

The priest looked around the shaking room with a surprised expression, then hurriedly turned his gaze to the orb.

The white light that Shirone couldn't see even with all his means a year ago was brightly lit.

Shirone stared intently at the orb.

It was strange that the white light really came on, but above all, it was the first time that the size of the numbers came out so small.

1,008,000.

"1 million 8,000 points… … ."

Gaold approached the distraught priest, stared him straight in the eyes, and gave a brief reply.

"Move."

I don't know what it means, but the priest's legs moved before I knew it and opened the way for Gaold.

It was a number that far exceeded the score that could be passed in the language of God.

Upon arriving at the Kergo Autonomous District, warriors who had already heard the news were guarding the entrance.

As they raised their arms, their eyes flashed with vigilance against strangers.

"This is the sacred land of Kergo! If you invade, I will kill you regardless of the reason!"

Gaold compressed a ball of air over his palm as he walked over to the barrier of spears that stretched like a porcupine.

Compared to the subjects of Heaven, the Kergos here are cute.

Warriors who sacrifice their lives for Ankera. In addition, the level of personal power was different from those of them.

But to Gaold, they were all Kergos.

"Everyone take down your weapons!"

Just as Gaold's press magic was about to explode, a stalwart man walked through the warriors.

The black tattoo turned golden, but Shirone could recognize his face at a glance.

As a member of the anti-angel faction, he was Mahatu, who was at odds with Chief Kadum.

Having a golden tattoo means that you have become a chieftain.

As expected, the warriors drew their weapons and bent their knees.

"Chief! They are heretics who assaulted Kergo! Why are you quenching our fighting spirit!"

Mahatu, who made eye contact with Gaold for a moment, moved to the group of eight people standing behind him.

"It's been a while, Mr. Shirone."

Mahatu learned the continental language.

It was the principle that religion and society should be separated to improve the lives of the tribal people, so it was a must-have in order to negotiate with the Galliant government.

"Mr. Mahatu, you have become the chief."

"I don't know if I deserved it, but it happened."

The warriors couldn't hold back their anger.

To them, assaulting priests was the worst felony that could not be replaced with anything.

"Chief! Please explain! Who are they!"

Mahatu asked Shirone with a puzzled expression.

"Why didn't you prove the power of an angel?"

"Ah, that… … There were some circumstances."

Mahatu seemed to know.

Recently, many people have been flocking to Kergo Ruins.

What the hell is going on in heaven?

The seriousness of the situation could be seen just by looking at the level of those brought by Shirone.

'What the hell are those monsters?'

Kergo's greatest warrior, Mahatu, could feel it.

Each one of them was a master who honed his different strains to the limit. Gaold, in particular, was not human.

Even Shirone couldn't help it if she, who thought she would never lose to anyone in terms of fighting spirit, would lose her mind just by looking into her eyes for a moment.

Since the compromise was in progress, there was no extreme conflict, but the war of nerves between the warriors and Gaold was still fierce.

"Punish the heretic who assaulted the priest! We are ready to fight! I'm not afraid of anything like you!"

"Yes, come in! Come in and see!"

Gangnan pathetically looked at Gaold, who was arguing with warriors who could not speak the language, and rubbed his temples.

'As expected, I didn't make that human the commander.'

Even so, the reason for leaving it alone is that sometimes Gaold's method is necessary.

Above all, isn't it the beginning of the day he's been waiting for 20 years?

It was a tough day that even the most ugly duckling couldn't nag at today.

"Quiet everyone! How dare you disobey my order!"

"Chief! We are ready to die at the chief's command. But compromising with heresy is not even denying the existence of Kergo!"

"Stupid. Do you know who is here right now?"

The warriors' eyes turned to Shirone.

However, even a year ago, they were imprisoned under the iron fist of Kadum, and they did not know the boy's face.

Mahatu raised his hand and introduced Shirone.

"This is God's messenger, Shirone-sama, who punished the Kadum faction and saved us half-angel faction."

Chapter - 412 - Task Force (4) 1.txt

===============================

[412] Task Force (4)

Shirone and the others followed Mahatu through a complicated maze.

Upon learning that they were messengers of God, the warriors knelt in unison, and even after entering together, they were welcomed by the tribesmen.

Unlike Kadum, who paid a huge tribute to the messenger of God in order to obtain eternal life, Mahatu managed Kergo's funds transparently.

The lives of the tribesmen improved, and the faces of those passing by were full of energy.

Although she didn't fight for Kergo, Shirone, who opened the Guffin's door and went to heaven, was their savior.

"I'd like to have a festival at least, but it seems that the situation is urgent."

"yes. I have to go to heaven as soon as possible."

Mahatu did not inquire about the circumstances of heaven.

Kergoin still worships Anchera and reveres angels, but the most important thing to him is the life of the tribesmen.

Sein asked.

"How many people are on the waiting list? I heard earlier that it is saturated."

Anyone can go to heaven if the Unlocker opens the Guffin's door, but in order to prevent indiscriminate passage to heaven, Maze created a room of achievement and sacrifice and arranged that only the chosen warriors pass through.

If it was saturated, it meant that there were quite a few people waiting for the Unlocker to come.

Mahatu tastefully smacked his lips.

"Actually, not that many. About 7 people."

"Strange. But why did you block the entry?"

"That is… … Actually, it's not something I can talk about. But you will know when you see it for yourself."

Gaold didn't care.

Anyway, the only thing to do in Kergo was Guffin's Gate.

If there were talented people waiting for heaven, he would take them, but it would be difficult to match them as the level of the team members was high.

"it's okay. Let's go and see it, and let's get rid of it quickly."

As if expressing sincerity, Mahatu accelerated his steps.

The place they arrived at was a huge iron gate with a giant sculpture engraved on it.

"This is the warrior's room. Warriors who want to go to heaven are waiting here."

When Mahatu opened the iron door, Gaold quickly entered and the party followed.

The seven warriors Mahatu said were sitting in different places, keeping a keen eye on Gaold.

The swordsman, who was sitting with a longsword in his arms, asked.

"A warrior or an angel?"

Gaold didn't respond, checked the faces of the seven people, then turned to Sein and said.

"You have to be at least level 6 certified. Other than that, it's not worth evaluating."

The wizard in the corner frowned.

"You talk as if you're going to be a certified 6th grader."

"What if?"

"haha! Is that why you're so arrogant? Certified wizards, I've killed countless times. It's anachronistic to judge skill by rank. How much hell you have experienced, how life and life are divided depending on it."

The wizard walked away, revealing the five rings on his right hand.

The man holding the sword said nervously.

"Hey, you know I asked first?"

"Doesn't it matter? Anyone can go as long as they have the skills. Wasn't that the rule?"

The wizard in front of Gaold waved his right hand and gestured for him to come in.

"I will teach you the state of those who have escaped the water supply."

Gaold's index finger aimed at him.

The moment the air gun exploded with a bang, the magician's body crashed into the wall. He spurted blood and hit his butt on the floor, his head bowed deeply and he could not move any further.

"next."

Shirone frowned.

He didn't intend to kill him like he did in the association's underground bunker, but he knew the power of Gaold's air gun better than anyone else.

"I also agree with what he said earlier."

An elderly wizard walked to the center, easing his neck.

"There is a level beyond the number of degrees. But to those who are not backed by their skills, theories are just delusions. I'd be a little different… … !"

At the same time as the magician's face crumpled to one side, the back of Gaold's hand, which had cast teleportation, hit his face and passed by.

The wizard, whose head shook left and right like a punch bowl, collapsed like a piece of wood.

"next."

In an instant, none of the five people who watched two people drop out did not move.

It is not a team that simply dreams of making a fortune on the outskirts of heaven.

It was apparently a task force with business in heaven.

When no one came forward, Gaold pointed to the swordsman who was sitting with his sword in his arms.

"Hey, you. Didn't you order something earlier?"

The swordsman kept his mouth shut and glared at Gaold.

Then he suddenly relaxed his expression and raised both hands as if he couldn't be defeated.

"Whoops, give up. Acknowledging your skills is also… … ! Aww!"

Gaold, who came running like a dog, slapped his fist.

As the press magic exploded on the swordsman's chin, his face bounced off in the direction of the hit and slid across the ground.

"Anyway, all of them have only their snouts alive."

The atmosphere in the room rapidly cooled.

Gaold looked back at the other four, who were staring blankly at him, then turned his head toward the door and said,

"All off. If you don't want to get lost."

No matter who said it first, the four of them rushed out the door, struggling from limb to limb.

With only those who passed out and Shirone's party remaining, a chilly aura hung over the warrior's room.

Gaold shook his hands and turned to the door.

"it's okay. It's neat."

"There is still one more left."

Mahatu entered the warrior's room.

Certainly, his skills would be one step above those who were here, but in Gaold's opinion, going to heaven was too much.

"what? Are you a challenge too?"

"no. in fact… … ."

Mahatu hesitated and looked out the door.

"There is one more messenger of God. He asked me not to let any more warriors in… … ."

"yes?"

As Mahatu opened the way, a familiar man entered.

It was Armin of Gwangan, the Eternal Reflector.

"Oh my."

To catch big fish, you need good bait.

As expected, Siena was perfect for capturing Armin.

Siena's eyes turned cold.

How long do you have to be treated like a child to get your intuition resolved?

However, when he saw Armin's face, his tone did not come out as harsh as he thought.

"Why is my brother here? Did you forget what I asked for?"

"No, I remember. I didn't come here with the intention of interfering in your life. To keep my promise to myself."

Gaold said.

"Sorry, but that won't work. I don't work with the white line. I can't figure it out."

"The ivory tower has withdrawn. Isn't that what happened?"

Siena's eyes widened.

If he had thrown away the magical utopia that only the best wizards in the world could enter, it would mean that his resolution was not normal.

"Uh, why? And Keira… … ."

Armin kept quiet about what was going on inside. However, a look of heaviness passed over his face.

"Siena, nothing in the world is more important than you. Heaven is a dangerous place. You can never go to a place like that alone. Even for the people of the Olipher School who raised me."

"Siena-san is a certified 5th grade wizard."

"Mr Kuan… … ."

Siena was surprised that the taciturn Kuan had opened her mouth.

"I know roughly what kind of relationship it is, but I feel like I'm ignoring it too much. And you don't have to worry about Mr. Siena's life or death. No one will die until I die."

The wizard is a position that must survive until the end of the party.

As a swordsman, the fact that they died first, regardless of their skills, hurt their pride.

'Is it Kuan… … .'

A demon of the sword who cut down two people against the continent's strongest swordsman group Fengzhang.

It seems that such a person took good care of Siena.

It was a comforting fact in a situation where he had to follow the madman Gaold, but as an older brother, he couldn't help but feel sad.

'Well, with what qualifications do I… … .'

Except for Siena, everyone seemed to welcome Armin's joining.

A master of time magic who conquered the speed of light.

In particular, the stop magic that stops time was the world's strongest crowd control.

"Okay, if it has nothing to do with the white line, I accept it. But anyway, I'm in charge. If you disobey, I will remove you from the team, so please know that."

Armin had no complaints either.

Since Siena was held hostage, fighting for the team was the best way.

With the flight to heaven just around the corner, a final team of 10 members was formed to recapture the labyrinth.

'Wow, it's really amazing when you put it all together.'

Shirone couldn't believe that he belonged to the team.

Regardless of white, red, black, it was a task force with the best people gathered.

* * *

Mahatu gave away all the remaining rooms.

The 10 people who each got a separate room had dinner and gathered in the largest room as a conference room.

The opening time for the Guffin's door is 6:00 AM tomorrow.

Considering the association's pursuit, leaving immediately is the way to go, but even if you go over anyway, you'll have to sleep first.

After entering heaven, even taking a break could be a war, so I preferred to spend the night here.

Gaold unfolded the map Gangnan had given him on the table.

It was a spray chart with colored dots on a map of heaven.

"Heaven is currently going through a cataclysmic period. A revolution has broken out among the subjects, and rebels are active. What you see now is a real-time threat map with Level 2 or higher alert zones displayed. Oh, I must leave out the word real-time. Because it was three months ago."

Gaold's Royal Guard, who were on a spy mission in heaven, had no further contact until the last time they sent this map.

Sein said.

"As a result of confirming Eastas, it became necessary to revise the existing strategy. Checking the maze's condition is the first priority. In some cases, changing the coordinates of the Akashic Records may not make sense."

Ethella said.

"If Miro was kidnapped from heaven, shouldn't the enemy's status be reset? It means that you are already preparing yourself."

"yes. A preemptive strike through stealth is difficult. I'll have to look at the situation, but I'll use the strategy of infiltrating after causing as much disturbance as possible."

said Armin.

"Creating a disturbance in heaven? There won't be many ways. Are you planning to use the rebels?"

"That, too, is clearly in my head. But the rebels won't move easily. So what you need is the ancient weapon Tagis. If we can neutralize Heaven's interception system, 'Aegis', they will change their minds."

Armin shook his head.

"no. Even if they could break through the Aegis, there is little chance that the rebels will launch an all-out war. As most of them were subjects, they must know the power of heaven better than anyone else. If Mecca and Norr were united, it would be a force that could not be overlooked even by Heaven, but the problem is fear. Imprinted fear is not easily forgotten."

"Fear can be eliminated. Anyway, the trend of heaven will be far away from our expectations. You have to deal with it from time to time. After all, we have the Masterpiece."

Siena asked.

"What does it mean? Masterpiece?"

Sein looked back at Shirone.

"It is you, Shirone. If you succeed, you can create an effect equivalent to moving the entire rebel army. So let's listen now. How the hell are you going to blow up heaven?"

When everyone's eyes suddenly focused on her, Shirone gulped down her saliva with a nervous expression.

It is a part that must be explained before leaving for heaven, but the atmosphere was different from when I told Gaold.

From now on, it was a real battle where every word was a strategy.

Gaold shoved his chin as if he were vouching for it.

"Hehe, there is no need to hesitate, Shirone. In my opinion, it's really crazy magic."

'That's why I'm more anxious… … .'

Chapter - 413 - Task Force (5) 13.txt

===============================

[413] Task Force (5)

"It's okay to talk, Shirone. Because it's just a home. We will listen and judge."

Encouraged by Zulu's words, Shirone repeated the explanation given to Gaold.

"First of all, it's magic based on Ataraxia."

"Of course it is."

It was best to start with Ataraxia to get even a 1% chance of Shirone destroying Heaven.

"The casting direction will be set to the sky. That's why we spread a magic circle over her head."

"Hoo? Is it the sky?"

It was definitely the beginning of a unique way.

As everyone's expectations rose, Shirone continued.

"Ataraxia is a trigger magic, so the range is not fixed. I thought the way to shoot into the sky was the most effective way to maximize that advantage."

"understood. then… … What are you going to shoot?"

"Laser."

"laser?"

Everyone here knows what a laser is.

But the sky was too empty to destroy anything.

"yes. I will amplify the linearity of the laser with ataraxia and shoot it as high as possible."

Fleur asked.

"If it is a high place, how high is it?"

"Well, it's a simple calculation, but roughly… … About 6,000 kilometers."

"Six, six thousand?"

Siena said.

"With a laser, it is possible. Because it is a single straight wavelength. If you combine Ataraxia's amplifying power and the characteristic called trigger, then higher altitudes are probably possible. So, Shirone?"

Shirone began to explain in earnest.

"At an altitude of 6,000 kilometers, we will cast a dark ball through the laser's information transmission method. It is to compress God's particles to a high degree, and if you use Ataraxia, you can make a mass of about 10 tons on a planetary scale."

Chee Hee Hee!

Sein's Iron Wheel quickly returned.

Even after listening to this, I realized what Shirone was planning to do.

In his head, all sorts of formulas began to be computed in a complicated but precise manner.

Shirone spread her arms wide.

"Perhaps a form of creativity? Actually, the shape is not important, but based on the omnipotence, it seems so, so a spear shaped with light weighing 10 tons is born. And that… … ."

Said Sain who finished the calculation.

"It's falling."

"yes. That's all."

That's all.

And everyone was speechless.

A much simpler mechanism than you might expect.

But surprisingly, it contained enough ideas to destroy Heaven.

"But is it really possible?"

Gaold turned to Sein at Fleur's question. From now on, it was up to his Servant brain to judge.

"possible."

Said Sein.

"Simply put, a mass of 10 tons falls from an altitude of 6,000 km. If the gravity of heaven is similar to that of this place, it will take about 14 minutes to reach it. The mass window will accelerate further under the influence of gravitational acceleration, and when it reaches its terminal velocity it will exceed 14 kilometers per second."

Flew's eyes widened.

"Fourteen kilometers? Second speed?"

If it moves at a speed of 14 kilometers per second, it is impossible to respond from the moment it enters the line of sight.

And the result was a quantification of the power that a 10-ton spear pierced at 41 Mach.

"It will be like that. Even if the kinetic energy generated there alone is converted into explosive power, it is approximately 2.19 million kilobusters. It's a figure that exceeds Heaven's durability. If it gets stuck in Arabot in the center, all seven heavens will be razed to the ground."

If it was Sein's words, there would be no error in the calculation.

Even so, no one could take the figures that came out now into their hearts.

2.19 million kilobusters?

It was beyond common sense that a boy who was still only a student could wield such power.

"Hey, how are you? I told you it was insane magic."

Gaold said.

"You know what I liked the most when I first heard this? There are no awkward assumptions. There is a clear distinction between what can be done and what cannot be done. At most, I thought that the senior year guy would talk nonsense, but that wasn't the case. It is not Shirone's magic that destroys heaven."

Sein said.

"Universal gravitation. The gravity of the planet draws in the spear and destroys Heaven itself."

"That's right. Those who worshiped the gods will eventually perish at the hands of the gods. It's called 'God's punishment'."

Shirone turned to Gaold.

"I was going to do it with Shining Spear?"

"The name doesn't matter. Anyway, the problem is the trajectory, the landing point, and the time."

Sein said.

"That I can count. I'll make a chart as soon as I get to heaven. In three days or so, we'll have a good idea of the motions of the planets, so we'll just have to set the launch time then."

Everyone began to articulate new strategies and tactics to accommodate the new parameters.

God's Punishment had such a powerful ripple effect that the project's strategy was completely changed.

While everyone was having a heated discussion, only Siena was looking at Shirone happily.

Gaold seemed to like that the divine punishment used the nature of the natural world, but Siena had the exact opposite idea.

We all know that dropping 10 tons from an altitude of 6,000 kilometers has tremendous destructive power.

But the reason no one is trying is because to lift 10 tons, potential energy equivalent to kinetic energy is required.

Therefore, God's punishment was Shirone's magic, not universal gravitation.

The laser is amplified by Ataraxia, and information is transmitted to Godot, where it activates God Particles to gather mass.

Looking at the results, it is a simple mechanism, but it was an application that would have been impossible for Shirone, who started from a blank slate, without a perfect understanding and analysis of what he had.

'You've squeezed out every last drop.'

The best result that was created after compressing the ideas in my head like diamonds so that there is no gap.

That's why Siena was able to sincerely congratulate the disciple on his great leap.

"But there are conditions."

Said Shirone, cutting off the heated discussion.

"Ataraxia was given to me by Archangel Ikael. Therefore, you must meet Ichael before casting this spell. And I know it was a contract."

No one is foolish enough to break a contract between team members.

However, it was human nature to want to turn a blind eye for a while at the point of obtaining the extremely high-efficiency weapon of God's Punishment.

No matter how cool-headed the old man was, the same was true.

In order for Divine Punishment to be activated, Ikael must be brought into contact with Shirone.

Depending on the situation, it may be very easy, or it may be impossible.

Regardless of the level of difficulty, Sein did not like that uncertainty.

"I will keep the contract. Also you deserve our help. But is that really the only option? If you give up on Ikael, I might do something similar to that. For example, with the assumption that all of us will be wiped out, we will prioritize your survival."

If you can get rid of the uncertainty, that's better.

That was the amount of God's punishment that Sain thought of in the project.

"no. I won't meet Ichael until it puts everyone in danger. But if it's not dangerous, there's no need for God's punishment. Even so, if it becomes dangerous, then there is enough motivation to meet Ikael. Please know that in such a limited situation, there is no need to bind Ichael and God's Punishment with other restrictions."

"Hmm, that's what it meant."

If it's a situation that will destroy heaven, it means that the situation has already been cornered.

If even a small probability was to be caught, the case of Shirone meeting Ikael was also considered.

"good. I will be content with the safety of my teammates being independent of Ikael's tangent."

It was the best line that Sein and Shirone could come to an agreement on.

* * *

the next morning.

Ten members of the team gathered in front of Guffin's door.

Kergo chieftain Mahatu and priests surrounded him, and warriors gathered in two columns to see off the Heaven Expedition.

When Shirone opened the Immortal Function, the Guffin's door disintegrated into particles and turned into a huge space-time tunnel.

While everyone was shouting Ankera, Gaold moved on with an annoyed expression.

Maybe it's a return to the beginning of everything.

"I will destroy your gods."

Raising his terrifying eyes, Gaold pushed himself into the black orb without hesitation.

Mikea Gaold – Red Line 1st Class Archmage

Powerful: Transcendent self-denial

Position: Commander

Gangnan's expression as he watched Gaold disappear was indifferent, but his heart was throbbing like never before.

'The end of 20 years. Whatever happens, it must end here. I will definitely, definitely finish it.'

Ahoya Gangnan – the last descendant of the wolf tribe

Powerful Skill: Ram Muay Strike

Position: Tank

Sein recalled the Day of Judgment of the 20 in front of Guffin's door.

Since Miro left, Gaold has become a crippled person, but Sein was jealous of him for being able to be insane.

Those were the days of running madly for the sake of the labyrinth.

'You just need to find a maze. You don't have to worry about anything other than that. Even if the world ends… … .'

Sein's body fell into the black sphere.

'I save the labyrinth.'

Powerful skill: Anti-magic through Iron Eyes

position: order

Zulu kept nothing. He has no longing for life and no fear of death.

If today's work is also just a point in a huge cycle, you just have to leave your body and mind to the flow.

'You have to empty it without regret. There is life in death.'

Zulu-Red Line 1st Class Summoning Mage

Power: Summon Lich

Position: Utility

Armin looked back at Siena in front of Guffin's door.

Just seeing Kuan by his side made his heart ache.

'I'm sure you did too.'

I could understand a little how she felt about having to watch Keira as a loving couple.

'But it was for you. Even to prove it, I will stand by your side.'

Armin turned quickly as if to erase his thoughts and disappeared through the Guffin's door.

Even if the end of the world was beyond this, there was no reason to hesitate.

'Siena, wherever you go… … .'

Generaid Armin – Former Ivory Tower Time Mage

Powerful: Stop

Position: Crowd Control

It was only after Armin disappeared that Siena's eyes turned into sadness.

I wanted to become a wizard with my brother. And he wanted to see the countless beauties of the world.

What I had dreamed of since childhood has become a reality, but why am I not happy?

'No, let's not think about it. It's foolish to be sentimental before a mission. I just need to do what I can.'

Olifer Siena – Red Line Certified 5th Class Wizard

Power: Absolute Zero

Position: Main Dealer

Kuan looked at Siena's back as she walked away.

As a swordsman, the lives of all nine people are beyond his own death.

Perhaps the probability that he will return alive is slightly higher than the possibility that all 10 people will miraculously return to life.

Even so, the reason I didn't feel dirty was probably because I wanted to protect someone for the first time.

'Is this my grave?'

A cool smile appeared on Kuan's lips as he turned to Saji.

Farka Kuan – Certified Level 6 Swordsman, Kaizen Swordsmanship School Instructor

Powerful: Movement Control

Position: Hitman

'Master, give me strength.'

Ethella closed her eyes and fell into a short meditation.

After being defeated by Arcane, her sense of duty, which had been polished after polishing, was burning like never before.

The moment Karcis Jung's warm voice, telling her to become the light of the world, rushed into her head like a roar, her eyes flashed.

'Destroy evil. That is my mission.'

Romi Ethella – Certified 6th Class Wizard, Searcher Jonah, Bishop of the Karsis Monastery

Powerful Skill: Yin-Yang Wave Fist Thousand Arms Guanyin Lightning Strike

Position: Sub Dealer

"Whoa. Whoa."

Flu did everything he could to keep the adrenaline in check.

Joining the world's best wizard team as a professional wizard is an honor beyond compare.

'You can't show clumsiness. Let's believe what she's been doing. Yes, I am Ravid Flu. you can do it!'

No matter what hardships you face, you will definitely succeed in your mission.

After countless vows as if engraved in her heart, she finally took her first steps at the Guffin's door.

'For me, death is also an honor. I'm just doing my best not to be a nuisance to everyone.'

Ravid Flu – Certified 8th grade wizard, manipulator Joner

Power: Bonghwangjeong

Position: Supporter

Shirone watched until the end as all the team members left for heaven. And he looked back as if looking back at the years gone by.

Life so far passed by like a kaleidoscope.

'Hello everyone.'

At the end of life, we meet the beginning of life.

For Shirone, this journey meant just that.

Now come, there can be no fear.

Even if I lose everything, I thought of pouring everything in heaven so that I wouldn't regret today's judgment.

"Go, messenger of God."

Receiving Mahatu's greeting, Shirone passed the warriors' path and arrived at the Guffin's Gate.

The tunnel of dark spheres did not show what was beyond. Just like everyone's future, only distant uncertainty lingers around.

'From now on, I won't even look back!'

Shirone opened her eyes and ran into the Guffin's door.

The space-time barrier distorted with powerful force swallowed Shirone and threw her into a world that humans could never reach.

Chapter - 414 - Second Purgatory (1) 1.txt

===============================

[414] Second Purgatory (1)

The Arun Mountains located in the northeast of Tormia Kingdom.

In this place full of gloomy aura from ancient times, there is Belkyr's seal, which was sealed a long time ago.

Just as there was magic even when you didn't know magic, it was the mages who dealt with the law who sealed the demons.

But now, thousands of years have passed, the will of good has faded, and the evil of Belkir has gradually entered the gap and started to encroach on the law.

This is the story of Belkyr's resurrection.

The majesty of Belkyr, which broke through the 20-meter-thick underground bedrock and appeared in the hollow of the mountain range, was overwhelming.

Its huge body, which was 15 meters tall and weighed 32 tons, resembled an octopus, and its skin was dark as if it had rotted.

The two arms looked like human beings, but if you look closely, they were a combination of colorful snakes.

Its reptilian, ferocious face had only red flames imprinted on its pupilless eye sockets.

Burning the dot of flame, Belkyr tumbled over the 24 legs of the octopus like a wave.

– I will destroy the world! I will subjugate all creatures under my feet!

That is the only law that makes up Belkyr.

But the big star of thousands of years ago had to feel the futility of time.

Humans who had achieved civilization were no longer easy enough to perish at the appearance of a single demon.

The mage sect, which had previously identified the location of demons based on ancient documents, sent an official letter of cooperation to the Ministry of Defense of the Kingdom.

A cage-level party was organized with the King's approval, and 21 wizards entered the caves of the Arun Mountains.

Now, 8 hours and 37 minutes have passed since then.

Cage B Team, which consisted of official 4th grade to 6th grade, amputated all of Belkyr's legs and was putting on a final offensive for complete extinction.

"Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Belkyr crawled through the cave, struggling with his arms entangled in snakes.

Although it is a Demon God equipped with all kinds of regenerative abilities, the power emitted by 21 humans was not at the level that he who was active thousands of years ago could handle.

"Insignificant humans! How dare you like me! Aaaaagh!"

Belkyr's body dented in the shape of an X, and as the flesh split open, slimy liquid spurted out.

The fat bald man jumped into the wound and began swinging his two tanning knives even faster.

"Is the letter X a decoration? uh? decoration? uh? decoration? uh? decoration?"

Currently, 28 kinds of super-powerful buffs were applied to the man.

His arm showed no sign of stopping, and endlessly opened the flesh in an X shape, digging into the heart.

A blush turned on the man's face when he discovered a light purple muscle mass.

And bit the demon's heart.

"Aaaaaagh! delicious! So delicious!"

I pulled the heart straight with my teeth and cut the connected part with a razor blade and struck it, and the flesh fell off.

The moment I passed it down my throat, the intense flavor of the raw meat spread and firecrackers exploded in my head.

"Oooh! Oohhhh!"

Meat addict Benifis

Certified 5th Class Battle Mage

Special note: Operation of a butcher's shop

"Turn it off… … !"

Belkyr held out until the end.

Ordinary living beings would die as a matter of morality if they suffered this much.

I could see how tenacious and obsessive the concept of demons was born.

"I-I can't disappear like this… … ."

"sorry. I'm so sorry."

A woman with a pale face and gray hair that hung down to her waist shed tears as she hugged Belkyr.

Every time her hand stroked the demon's body, the wriggling flesh stopped working.

"How much does it hurt? how painful would that be Hehehe! sorry. I can't help… … Hee hee hee!"

An unbearable laugh broke out between the sobbing voices.

The contrast between the big eyes that shed tears and the grotesquely twisted corners of the mouth was chilling.

Saint Moriac

Certified 6th Class Healing Mage

Wide-area healing magic reaching 100 meters in diameter is long-lasting.

Peculiarities: Manic Severe

In the human world, to the point of being called a demon, it was a position equivalent to a two-legged mara in heaven, but now it was just a demon in danger of being destroyed at the same time as the advent of only 21 humans.

Belkyr finally realized that he had been imprisoned.

The magicians' abilities sealed themselves off like ours and beat them for 8 hours.

When the devil was in trouble, Rose, the team leader of Cage Team B, went to the main dealer.

As expected, he was preoccupied with smoking in the corner and goofing around.

"hey! Can't you come in soon? Do you know how much this party costs per hour? Does the association give you money by digging the ground?"

"Ah, that witch."

Tarvan shook off his cigarette and looked at Belkyr.

It was clearly compacted and in perfect condition to be destroyed.

'Stop messing around, you jingling bastard.'

Tarvan spread his hands as he rushed towards Belkyr, and a high frequency sound pierced his eardrums from the top of his palms.

Kaiser Blast.

All the wizards who heard this name scattered in all directions.

As Tarvan's hands extended forward, Belkyr's heavy body began to vibrate.

"Remember, humans! I am… … !"

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooh!

At the same time as the explosion, Belkyr's shape disappeared without a trace.

Flesh splattered everywhere, but even that melted in the heat.

"Mission complete."

It was the result that came out exactly 8 hours and 49 minutes after Cage Team B arrived here.

At that time, the eyes of the communications wizard, who had been dozing with his back leaning against the cave wall, opened.

Information was output on the crystal ball in front of me.

It took roughly four hundred lines of code to convey just one sentence.

"manager. manager."

As Rose turned around, the communication wizard floated a crystal ball over her palm and said,

"It's an association call. Gather all of Team B in the cage."

Magic Association.

The hallway on the 18th floor, where the president's office was located, was full of wizards.

Team B's face was full of dissatisfaction as they were all scattered and waiting for the team leader.

Basically, Cage B Team is made by selecting only the best performers in each field.

It's no exaggeration to say that they were the busiest wizards in the kingdom, so it was natural that they weren't happy to be called after the mission was over.

"What are you anxious about? I need to go home soon and look after the baby. Are you sure you don't intend to do anything more here?"

"By the way, why doesn't the team leader come out like this? Do you know anything, old man?"

Tarvan asked Horkin.

Cage, the eldest member of Team B and the person in charge of the order, would know something, but he just smiled dubiously.

When the door to the president's office opened and Rose came out, wizards rushed towards her.

As expected, it was not a good thing, but her expression was not good.

"Team leader, what did the president of the association say?"

Currently, Rufist temporarily serves as the president of the association, but those who are not members of the association do not care whoever takes over as the president, as long as the settlement is done properly.

"It is an urgent mission. I guess you guys should run one more time."

No one said a word, but the hallway shook uneasy with the cold blood shooting from their gaze.

Saint Moriac asked.

"Why us? There is also a cage A team, right?"

There is almost no difference in skill between Cage A and Cage B.

No matter how top of each field, Tormia's defense power is not so weak that there are not 40 such talented people.

However, if Team A of Cage worked together for a long time, Team B of Cage was an improvised member depending on the situation at that time.

In that minor difference, there is no choice but to be in the middle of the day.

If they had to carry out the mission of the association this time, the target would be the Cage A team, not themselves.

"I also suggested. But currently, Cage Team A is temporarily unavailable."

said Horkin.

"It's because of Gaold."

"that's right. Currently, Team A has a person presumed to be Gaold's bodyguard. Until the truth is uncovered, we are the only cage-level party in the kingdom."

Tarban said.

"Still, it can't be done. Isn't it the team leader who asked for a contract from the beginning? And this friend of Roche has a daughter who can't even stretch yet. She is beaten to death by Jesu."

"That's right, chief. please take me out Even if I had to pay a penalty… … ."

Rose's eyes narrowed.

"Don't be mistaken. This is not a guild. Settlement is just an example given at the association level. Currently, the first-class mobilization order of the kingdom has been declared. Failure to do so will result in disqualification from the red line and be punished according to the laws of the kingdom. Do you know what the kingdom atmosphere is like right now? You better know how to crawl."

The wizards were silent.

Anyway, leaving the red line, I couldn't think of their location, so in the end, I had to remove them from above.

Rose's expression softened a little.

"As the team leader, I am sorry. However, when this mission is over, the association also promised a sufficient reward. You will be able to get three times the original down payment and reputation points equal to the special promotion."

Money is money, but the words of reputation points changed the eyes of the wizards.

From the official 6th grade, the number of points to be accumulated for promotion was enormous, so if this task was successful, it would be a solid hold on one's share.

Horkin asked.

"so… … What are we supposed to do?"

Rose kept quiet as if this was a problem.

Isn't the level of difficulty too high, no matter how cage-level?

"This target is… … It is human."

"human? Who is the human?"

Rose's eyes flashed sharply.

"The former president of the Tormia Magic Association, Mikea Gaold is eliminated."

* * *

Purgatory outside Heaven. Forest of the Vulnerable.

After coming out of the tunnel where the light flowed like a torrent, a vast expanse opened up before Shirone's eyes.

The concentric circles of heaven were visible beyond the sea of floods, and drones were clustered like gnats in a certain section.

Having already experienced it, Shirone took a deep breath and prepared to land.

As expected, the direction sharply changed and it fell vertically.

The sea disappeared and the forest passed by.

I watched with my eyes wide open until the ground was right in front of me, then I twisted my body.

"Whoa."

It was a much more stable landing than before, but no one congratulated Shirone.

The nine people who passed through the Guffin's door first were scattered, looking in different directions, lost in thought.

Sein said.

"It is the forest of the profane. It is the habitat of monopods."

"Single ears. It's a quiet place. Shall we go then?"

secluded place.

Shirone recalled the situation in which she had been surrounded by poisonous ears.

Thanks to that, I was able to meet Kanya and Lena and enter heaven, but it was never a safe place.

'Well, it might be a secluded place for these people… … .'

Sein explained as he walked.

Purgatory is largely classified into three places: the habitat of cults, the mainland, and the outskirts of the community.

In particular, the outskirts of the community is a general term for the areas where non-subjects live, and they are specially called borderline people.

Sein's current destination is a place called the mainland, and since it is the only neutral zone where heretics and vigilantes gather, it was a place he had to stop by to get information.

As I passed through the middle of the forest, the ground suddenly started shaking as if an earthquake had occurred.

The party, who was on alert, waited for a new change to appear, and as the sound gradually died down, they exchanged glances and made their way through the forest.

"oh my god… … ."

Hundreds of giants formed a line in the plain below the mountain and were heading somewhere.

A giant created through Anecdotal Sake.
