<h4>Chapter 198 – The Saintess and the Evil God?</h4>


    Rihanna, Meldia, and Sherry’s long-range fire magic are cast consecutively.


    mes and explosions are blowing up like a scene in a war movie.


    The saint army is gradually advancing as their number decrease.


    The other party is advancing fast since it takes time to cast magic.


    As the saint army approaches gradually, the vanguards Dan and Brunhilde set up the weapons in their hands.


    Though it is possible to cast magic while withdrawing, I judged it to be better this way in order to have much better response in each situation.


    When the front line of the saint army stepped into the distance of 20 meters to the ce where we are, silhouettes of a person appeared to their left and right.


    On the right side is Tiamoe holding a staff and on the left side is a tall slender man.


    The man is wearing something like a tattered ck coat. His ck hair extends down to his waist, he has ck skin and a pair of cloudy yellow eyes.


    The man is looking straight at us and is walking while swaying.


    「Nyathotep…!」


    I shout out as soon as I saw the man whose ck from head to toe and looked at Brunhilde.


    「Dan, Brunhilde! I entrust the woman on the left to you! Marina, assist everyone! Everyone else, protect the rear guards!」


    「! Affirmative!」


    「Yes!」


    Everyone moves quickly ording to my minimal instructions.


    After confirming it, I jumped out of the highway.


    At the same time, the chant of the rear guards werepleted and the magic casted.


    「Scorching true fire!」


    「Dark Inferno!」


    「Crimson Explode!」


    The three of them shouted at the same time and the saint army was swallowed by roaring mes.


    The ragests in an instant but the st blows down everything around the point of impact.


    Under such circumstances, Inded on the ground. I lowered my stance and started running towards Nyathotep.


    The yellow cloudy eyes of Nyathotep move around in ordance to my movement.


    「Air raid!」


    「Judgement of the earth」


    I swung down my sword at Nyathotep using a skill. Nyathotep used a skill too with his low voice.


    Using the skill, the de of my sword is covered by wind increasing my attack power and range.


    However, with the skill Nyathotep used at the same time, white light appeared at his feet.


    Along with that white light, cracks appeared on the ground. Energy waves and countless of fragments blow up in the air.


    The torrent of that energy stopped the momentum of my sword. Arge portion of the earth blocked my sword.


    「Breath of the earth」


    It might have judged that I became defenseless.


    Nyathotep mutters that and activates another skill.


    Nyathotep extends one of its hand and tries to hit me, whose hands are both above my head, with its palm.


    Immediately afterwards, dark redva gushed out from the cracked ground. It dyed my sight red.


    If a level 50 person was hit by that, he’ll immediately die.


    Especially if he doesn’t have a barrier.


    As for me, I fell on theva on the ground and ran around to look for Nyathotep.


    Suddenly, Tiamoe appeared in my sight. The moment I saw the staff in her hand, my eyebrows knitted.


    The staff of the dead.


    Tiamoe is a necromancer after all. Is Nyathotep a corpse and she’s manipting it?


    However, I don’t think that it is possible for a necromancer to defeat Nyathotep in a one on one battle.


    In other words, she haspanions.


    Then, does that mean that if I beat Tiamoe, who’s controlling Nyathotep, I will save time toplete this game?


    At any rate, there is no point in targeting Tiamoe for now since I’m the only one here that can oppose Nyathotep.


    After thinking about that, I broke through theva rain and got close to Nyathotep.


    「Five stage sh!」


    I activated a skill that is a series of strike and in order for Nyathotep to be unable to counterattack, I cast magic at the same time.


    「Tempest!」


    The condensed wind was shot after I adjusted its course slightly. Nyathotep was nailed down at its position and even Tiamoe, whose tens of meters away from us, were affected by it.


    Or should I say, she was affected and damaged by the knockback effect of that magic. However, Nyathotep seemed to be affected by it for only a moment.


    On the other hand, Tiamoe has not set a barrier so her stance broke allowing Brunhilde and the otherse closer.


    With this, the other side might be able to give Tiamoe a single blow.


    Now is a short-term decisive battle. Everyone should take advantage of this moment to knock out the opponent.


    If this was the game, I feel that I would have to fight for at least 20 minutes but this time, I intended to end everything in five minutes…..


    「Demon’s w」


    At the same time I braced myself and turned my sword to Nyathotep, Nyathotep activated a skill.


    Countless ck mes swirl to surround us and something like a white crescentes out of the me.


    「Wa…..!?」


    The moment I saw it, I immediately withdrew backward.


    The next moment, nearly 20 white objects are flying to me drawing different orbits.


    Though their speed isn’t something to be afraid of, those who know of this attack knew how frightening it is. It is something unavoidable.


    If you won’t move, you’ll be chopped by white ws from all directions.


    I withdrew because I learned to deal with it during the game. It will be possible to deal with them if they the attack ising from the front.


    「Even so….! It’s not easy to evade!」


    I evaded most of the w that is approaching at high speed and parried two with my sword.


    After dealing with all the attacks, I ran as is crawling in the ground and shook my sword.


    The moment my sword was about to hit Nyathotep, I quickly activated a skill.


    「Five stage sh!」


    I sessfully hit the nearly defenseless Nyathotep with my sword skill. I greatly destroyed its stance with my continuous sword strikes.


    「Five stage sh!」


    I now aimed at the upper body of Nyathotep and activated the skill again.


    Shoulder, back, belly, waist, and finally a sh to the head.


    I looked at Nyathotep who’s lifted in the air after I sh its upper body and quickly tried to pursue it.


    However, I saw Nyathotep’s cloudy yellow eyes looking at me. It moved his mouth and I reflexively rolled sideways and took some distance.


    「Six ck awn」


    By the time Nyathotep muttered that, I already evaded.


    ck lights fly to the ground with Nyathotep as its center. The ck lights quickly formed a huge hexagonal star of about 20 meters in diameter.


    Immediately afterwards, ck light was irradiated from the ground to the shape of that hexagonal star.


    Though I managed to evade at thest minute, two of my barriers were destroyed.


    At a distance, I saw dozens of saint army soldiers broke down together with the armor.


    It’s a frightening attack but I unintentionally raised the edge of my mouth at that moment.


    It is a well integrated defensive and offensive battle technique but it has a weakness.


    When the hexagonal star disappears, Nyathotep will be unable to move for about 1 to 2 seconds.


    I set up my sword again and looked at the thinning light of the hexagonal star. I open my mouth.


    「Rough vortex!」


    When I mutter so, a whirlpool of dense wind wraps my body.


    Though it will be impossible for me to put barriers while wearing this magical wind, my attack power and speed will increase.


    If I use a skill under such condition, Nyathotep will surely receive fatal damage.


    I raised my sword to my eye level and lowered my waist.


    The light of the hexagonal star is now thinner and Nyathotep’s figure is gradually appearing.


    And, the hexagonal star on the ground disappearedpletely.


    After confirming it, I jumped towards Nyathotep.


    「Five stage sh!」


    With the feeling of exerting all my strength, I shook my sword.
