Black Knight Billvine.

One of the strongest mid-ranking demonic humans of the Devil's Eye.

He raised his head and gazed at the basin.

"The sacred place.

"He came from a fallen family of knights in the Argon Empire, so he did not know much about the barbarian lands.

But even he could not help but feel that there was something special in the sacred place ahead of him.

'According to the information, it's guarded by one wild god and four low-ranking angels.

'In fact, the western part of the barbarian lands was already in the hands of the Angry Bull tribe and the Devil's Eye.

Because of that, the Devil's Eye was able to acquire all kinds of information about the barbarian lands, including the eastern wild gods' information, location of the dragon veins, the sacred place, and so on.

'Blue Whiskers is a wild god in the form of a dragon.

'Although he was a dragon, he was still a young one, so he wasn't that strong.

Nevertheless, he was both a dragon and a wild god.

He was not an easy opponent to fight against.

'Moreover, our goal is to capture him alive.

'Billvine's mission was to pollute the dragon vein, subdue the wild god, and the corrupt Blue Whiskers with the power of the great overlord Belial.

'After luring him, we'll trigger the spell.

If we defeat the Tomb Guardians while the wild god is tied up, the sacred place will become an ownerless land.

'After confirming their strategy in his mind, Billvine stopped at about a hundred meters from the entrance of the sacred place and ordered his subordinates to go into their battle positions.

'He'll have no choice but to come out.

'The dragon veins spread out like a network of threads throughout the barbarian lands, like that of a human body's veins.

The sacred place was where such dragon veins gather and circulate, which was like the heart of a human.

In order to properly contaminate the dragon vein, the dragon vein's heart must be captured, so that the rest of the dragon veins would easily be contaminated.

"Begin.

""As you wish, Sir.

"When Billvine ordered in a low voice, the men in black armor obeyed their master and began to stab spears with the curse of the overlord Belial into the ground.

"May the power of Belial fill this land…"After the cursed spears were stabbed on the ground, Billvine chanted the spell to activate the curse, and the snow around the area began to melt.

A purple aura surged along the spears, and at the same time, a deadly green curse permeated the ground.

Billvine looked up and watched the entrance of the sacred place.

What he had hoped for was coming true.

***Ten minutes before Billvine stabbed the cursed spears on the ground.

Jude and Cordelia looked at each other and quickly exchanged words.

"Billvine isn't just a musclehead character.

""He has a brain, right?

He also has a cautious personality.

""Yes, do you remember what Violent Avalanche said?

""The method to subdue the wild gods?

""Yes, that method.

Violent Avalanche said that its movements were restricted because of the evil energy and curses that they had prepared.

So there's a high possibility that they've prepared something similar this time.

""So we block Blue Whiskers and prevent the Tomb Guardians from leaving?

""That's right.

We have to crush Billvine's plan from the ground up.

""How?

With a F*ck Bang?

""No, not that.

Though it's true that if we blow up the sacred place, they wouldn't be able to occupy it.

""I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

I'm not a bomber.

I'm not that kind of person.

""…Then, apart from that.

""Apart from that?

""What do you think Billvine is missing right now?

""Can't you just tell instead of asking me?

It's bothersome to think.

""…Madam, your servant doesn't want Madame to give up yet.

""Okay, okay.

You want me to say it, right?

What Billvine is missing.

"Billvine had no information about Jude and Cordelia.

Moreover, Jude and Cordelia had unintentionally annihilated the demonic humans of the Devil's Eye and their subordinates in Violent Avalanche's mountain and in Gentle Snow Breeze's fields.

So it was highly likely that they had not yet been informed of Jude and Cordelia, and even if they were informed, they wouldn't easily think that the two would appear in the sacred place.

"Ooh…as expected.

My child could do it.

Let's keep working hard in the future.

""That's enough work for my brain.

Moving on, the root of his plan is Blue Whiskers, right?

""Yes, Billvine's plan is likely to start with 'restraining Blue Whiskers.

' In other words, if he couldn't restrain Blue Whiskers, we'll be able to get rid of his plan from the very roots.

""What about their method?

""That.

"Jude turned around and pointed to the sacred place's temple, and Cordelia narrowed her eyes.

"Uh…you said we shouldn't blow it up.

""No, not the dragon vein.

I'm talking about the temple of the wild gods and the sacred place of Solari.

"At Jude's words, Cordelia blinked her eyes several time before she understood it.

Jude and Cordelia knew little about the wild gods, but not for Solari.

"Can you do it.

""I can do it.

""Will it be on time?

""That's why I need to hurry from now on.

"Cordelia nodded at his words before she ran towards the entrance and shouted.

"I'll buy time!

""Don't overdo it!

Okay?!

""You too!

"She roughly shouted and then ran without looking back.

On the other hand, Jude headed to the temple.

And around ten minutes later…Blue Whiskers reacted to the cursed spears that Billvine stabbed on the ground.

***"Who dares pollute the dragon vein!

"Blue Whiskers burst with anger as he ran out of the temple.

He was about to rush towards Billvine and his men at that moment.

No, he would have done that if he was alone.

He had been protecting the sacred place for nearly a hundred years, but this was the first time it had been attacked.

But Cordelia was there.

"Wait!

Stop!

You can't go!

"Cordelia boosted her power with the witch's power and shouted, and Blue Whiskers stopped on his feet but still remained angry.

"What do you mean by stop!

Can't you see what they're doing!

"They stabbed cursed spears on the ground and spread Belial's curse.

Cordelia had already seen similar things in the land of Gentle Snow Breeze, so she understood what was happening, but she still didn't back down.

"I know!

But it's a trap!

It's obviously a trap!

"In order for them to properly contaminate the dragon veins, they had to go to its heart.

In other words, what they were doing was a pointless task, and there was only one reason for doing such a pointless task.

'Fishing!

'It was a bait to lure Blue Whiskers.

"Jude is inside, okay?

He's drawing a magic circle inside, okay?

We have to wait until Jude is done!

"Jude might be ignorant about the dragon veins, but he knew a lot about Solari.

He was drawing a magic circle to use the power of the sacred place, so they shouldn't behave rashly until he completes the magic circle.

"But they're polluting the land!

""We can cleanse it later!

""Hmm, that's true.

"Having been alone in the sacred place, his eloquence was weak, so Blue Whiskers slowed down for a moment, but only for a brief moment.

"Eiii!

I won't stop!

I am the guardian of the sacred place!

I'm going to beat those guys up!

Tomb Guardians!

Get up and face the enemy!

""Kwoooh!

"The four Tomb Guardians at the entrance responded to Blue Whiskers' command and spread their wings at the same time.

Cordelia stamped her foot with a look of urgency, and soon made a decision.

"""What?!

" magic was Cordelia's second specialty.

However, Blue Whiskers was a wild god.

Cordelia's spell made paralyzed him, but it didn't last long.

On Blue Whiskers' neck hung Solari's necklace, which gave off a blue glow and canceled Cordelia's magic.

'Solari's Curse-lifting Necklace!

'It was a necklace that protected the wearer from harmful spells once a day.

Although there was a limit on the number of times it could be used per day, its power of protection was so strong that it was a must-have item.

In any case, the necklace's power repelled Cordelia's magic, and Blue Whiskers angrily shouted.

"I thought you were a good child, but you weren't!

""No!

Just listen to me!

Okay?!

""Get out of my way!

"Blue Whiskers yelled in a threatening manner as if he was going to attack if she interfered further, and he then kicked the ground and rose to the air.

He rode on the wind and clouds and together with the Tomb Guardians, he flew towards Billvine.

"Ah, seriously!

"Cordelia held back her cursing and then looked at the temple where Jude was as she clenched her teeth.

She was worried about Blue Whiskers, but she had to stay near the temple in case something else happened.

'Please!

'Since that's what happened, show me the majesty of a wild god!

It was the moment when Cordelia wished for that.

"Belial's Cursed Hammer!

Strike the enemy!

Cursed Net!

Capture the enemy!

"When Billvine loudly shouted, five of his men cut their own throats, offering themselves as human sacrifices.

The vivid red blood spilled into air, and at that moment, a dark red power rose from the cursed spears and headed towards Blue Whiskers.

The Devil's Eye had invested a long time to develop this sealing curse for the wild gods in order to carry out their plans.

"Kuaaaah!

"Blue Whiskers grew stronger as time passed, but he lacked combat experience so he couldn't properly fight against the curses that came in succession.

He was hit by the Cursed Hammer, crashed to the ground, and the Cursed Net tied not only his flesh but also his soul.

Solari's necklace, which already used up today's protection, was useless.

No, it didn't change even if it hadn't been used up.

To begin with, what the Devil's Eye prepared was something that activated ten curses in a row.

"Strengthen the curse!

Seal the wild god completely!

"When Billvine shouted, five of his men stepped forward again and cut their own throats.

They were brainwashed offerings that had been prepared as human sacrifices in the first place.

"Kuaaaah!

"Blue Whiskers painfully screamed as he desperately fought against the curse.

The power of the curse nearly doubled the moment the five humans were sacrificed again.

"The wild god is sealed.

Let's strike the sacred place now!

"Billvine drew his sword and shouted, and his subordinates raised the flag and blew on the horns.

They were like an order of knights that belonged to the Devil's Eye, and they passed by Blue Whiskers and began charging towards the sacred place.

"Kuaaaah!

"The Tomb Guardians spread out their wings and rushed towards Billvine's men.

However, they had already prepared countermeasures against the Tomb Guardians.

By forming groups of ten people each against the four Tomb Guardians, they created a situation that was similar to a hunter and a prey on a hunt.

"I'll cut their breaths one by one.

"As he grasped his pitch-black sword, Billvine hurried towards the Tomb Guardian instead of immediately heading to the sacred place.

It was a simple yet reliable hunting method in which Billvine himself killed the Tomb Guardians while ten of his men tied its feet.

"Kaaa…"The first Tomb Guardian lost its life helplessly.

As she watched it, Cordelia clenched her teeth and thought.

The situation had already gone badly.

So she had to step out and protect the Tomb Guardians.

Working with them was the best in order to stop Billvine and his men.

"I'll go.

"Cordelia took a deep breath and then kicked the ground.

But at that moment, a loud noise broke out from behind her back.

Kwaaaaa-!

The noise came from the temple.

There was an open space at the top of Solari's temple which let the sunshine in, and from there, a bright golden pillar of light shot up.

Cordelia quickly turned around and saw the pillar of light before she cheered.

Because she realized what Jude's plan was.

"Long live the sun!

"Cordelia raised her hands up high to worship the sun.

Her actions had no meaning, but the pillar of light responded as if it reacted to her.

Craack-!

The pillar of light split into hundreds to thousands of pieces with a sound similar to breaking glass.

The pieces remained in the air as if the time froze, and the world was soon covered with an intense light.
