Chapter 264: COUNT KAGEHAMA (3)

EPISODE 252 – COUNT KAGEHAMA (3)

Pata-pata-pata-pata-pata-!

The blades of light pouring down like a rain shower was enough to cause fear in itself.

Heavenly Judgment.

One of the hundred swords that Auriel, one of the Four Archangels of Heaven, had forged for her warriors.

Since Cordelia’s angel ranking was still low, it wasn’t as powerful as when Lena used it in the wild lands in the past, but even the weakened version had an earth-shattering power.

“O-Oh my god…”

When Kajsa spoke with a voice mixed with fear and wonder, the first blade of light reached the ground. Hundreds of blades rained down on the outskirts of Count Kagehama’s mansion, or to be exact, on the walls of the property as it destroyed everything it came across.

Pata-pata-pata-pata-pata-!

It was like heavy rain that struck the ground.

Madhur’s subordinates were struck by the endless firing of light blades. As the rain of light literally swept them away, their true forms were revealed.

These men had hidden their appearances by wearing masks and robes, but they were actually demons and synthetic demonic humans who were made from combining demons and humans.

Ruuumbleee-!

The walls of Count Kagehama’s property collapsed.

The demons and demonic humans were overwhelmed by the divine power, and they were unable to avoid the rain of light blades as it turned them into ashes.

“Aaah… aaaaaaah…”

Kajsa looked up the sky in awe again.

The figure of Cordelia as she held a divine sword that was shining white in the night sky was like a goddess rather than an angel.

Kajsa put her hands together in prayer out of reverence. If she had been left alone, she might have even knelt down on her knees and worshipped Cordelia.

If she had been left alone, that is.

Bang!

A new roar filled the place where the blades of light had disappeared.

It was from Jude and Madhur’s clash.

‘Crazy!’

Madhur was blocking Jude’s onslaught with his shield, but couldn’t help looking around.

Because it was impossible for him to not look away when blades of light had just rained down from the sky.

‘Angel? And what in the world is this guy’s power!’

The forces besieging Count Kagehama’s mansion were literally annihilated in just a few seconds.

They were swept away, without a single trace left.

It was totally unexpected.

Not only Madhur himself, but even Sicily wouldn’t have been able to foresee such a situation.

‘Where did these two suddenly come from?!’

Sicily had worked hard in gathering information of the current era after she woke up earlier than Malekith.

So Madhur knew quite a bit about the powerful people of the present time.

He even tried to face two of the Ten Great Swordmasters himself.

‘The Ten Great Swordmasters and the seven knights of Carlos are equal.’

At least, that was the case with the two whom he faced. Although the two weren’t as good as Janifer Ophand, who was the strongest among the seven knights of Carlos, or Chris Kaolan, who was an elven knight, the two were skilled enough to be just below Janifer and Chris.

‘Rare.’

Something that supposed to be uncommon.

Such a strong man was usually rare.

Especially among humans.

Unlike elves and dwarves who were guaranteed a long youth and a life spanning hundreds of years, the lifespan of a human was only a hundred years at the longest, and most of them were in the prime of their lives at ages 20 to 30.

In other words, humans had an extremely short time to train themselves, so it was difficult for their race to become stronger than elves or dwarves.

But the reason why strong people like the Ten Great Swordmasters exist was because humans were so numerous that they were incomparable to elves or dwarves.

True geniuses.

People with monstrous talents were born not in one out of hundreds or thousands, but at least in 1 out of 100,000.

So people like them weren’t that many.

Once they were born, they were bound to stand out and make a name for themselves, whether they liked it or not.

But what was this guy in front of him?

Where did this guy suddenly come from?

“Keuooooooooo!”

Madhur loudly roared and wildly swung his shield.

He blocked Jude’s attack and swung down his lightning fast huge sword at the same time.

A vertical strike.

An attack that would be impossible for ordinary people to follow with their eyes, but not for Jude.

Madhur who had launched the attack also knew.

It would miss.

That guy would dodge his attack.

And it actually happened. Jude dodged Madhur’s sword attack that came down towards his head by moving to the side.

Just as Madhur expected.

“Tahaaaa!”

Madhur’s sword that struck down at a fast speed then defied gravity in an instant. After stopping the downward force of the sword attack, he changed its direction at once as he swung it up diagonally.

A V-shaped attack.

It was an illogical move for Madhur to suddenly change the course of his sword, but it was good for an unexpected attack.

So far, Janifer Ophand was the only one who had avoided this attack.

That was why he was sure.

It would definitely hit.

It would cut his opponent’s body!

But the moment he changed the course of his sword, Jude did not falter. Rather, he changed his direction as if he had expected it, and looked at the rising sword.

Because he knew.

Because he already knew so well that Madhur could pull off this kind of technique!

Booooom!

A roar burst into the air which had unbelievably come from a sword attack.

But Madhur knew.

He didn’t feel it. His sword did not cut Jude.

He clearly succeeded with his attack, but his opponent was unharmed.

Madhur hastily raised his head. Jude had jumped up the sky. That guy did not just avoid his sword attack, but even climbed on his own sword.

He rode on the upward cut’s force in order to soar up.

From Madhur’s perspective, this was so astonishing and absurd.

He didn’t expect anyone else to do this besides Janifer Ophand.

But he was still Madhur.

Though he was flustered, his body was already preparing for the next attack. He pulled back the red sword that he swung in order to attack Jude in the sky.

And it was at that moment.

Whoooosh!

Something wrapped around Madhur’s arm that was holding the sword. Madhur quickly turned his gaze and saw a thin cord wrapped around his right arm, and an angel holding the end of the cord.

For Madhur, it was something that he would just sneer at.

Are you trying to stop me with those slender arms of yours?

Do you think that’s possible?

Madhur immediately pulled his right arm. He tried to tell the angel, who had fearlessly tied him up, that they had a huge difference in strength.

But it was the time when he pulled his arm.

“Huh?”

The angel let go of the cord without any regrets. As if she had no intention of competing for strength in the first place.

Why?

Don’t tell me she just wanted to divert my attention?

It wasn’t.

The bright smile of the angel denied his assumption.

It was something else.

Her purpose was not to delay.

“F*ck bang!”

Booooooom!

His right arm exploded.

The wire-shaped detonating cord exploded, and the startled Madhur almost let go of his sword. His arm felt like it was going to break because a part of the detonating cord had injured his joint that was not protected by the armor.

“Aaaah!”

Madhur wrapped his arms with his red aura. He boosted his physical abilities and stopped the bleeding at the same time, before he tried to swing his sword towards the angel.

But someone got in his way at that time. It was Jude who was in the sky.

“Black Dragon’s Ascent! Burst!”

Having soared up the sky, Jude fired the energy of the black dragon towards the ground.

When a dozen black dragons came rushing at once, Madhur was forced to give up his attack. He hurriedly raised his shield and blocked the energy of the black dragon.

Babababababababang!

The energy of the black dragon mercilessly pounded on the shield. The power of each shot wasn’t that strong, but the problem was the numbers.

‘Is this guy some kind of wizard?!’

What kind of warrior in the world would fire his fist energy as if they were magic missiles?

‘No, is he a fist fighter in the first place?’

The guy was obviously barehanded, but it felt like he was fighting a swordsman.

“Uooooooo!”

Madhur shouted again and infused his red aura into the shield. He did not stop at simply blocking the energy of the black dragon as he roughly swung his shield wide while turning his red sword towards the sky.

Just like what Jude had wanted.

Swooooosh-!

For Madhur to swing his shield and sword.

For Madhur to spread out his arms naturally.

Cordelia did not miss that opportunity. With her telekinetic power, she simultaneously controlled four detonating cords to fly in the air and wrap around Madhur’s limbs. She recited the spell while Madhur was startled.

“F*ck bang.”

Baaaaaaang!

The detonating cords exploded all at once. Madhur hastily protected his body with his red aura, but his timing was a little late. Red blood burst out of Madhur’s limbs.

“Keuaaack!”

For Madhur, this was driving him crazy. He had never experienced or even imagined someone to attack like this.

It exploded the moment it wrapped around his limbs, so he had not time to tear it away.

‘If only Malekith had been resurrected!’

The current Madhur was unable to use his full power. He couldn’t use his steel body that he obtained from signing a soul contract with Malekith.

If Malekith had been resurrected and he was able to use his steel body, he could have just ignored all these explosions!

“Black Dragon’s Ascent!”

Having evaded Madhur’s sword attack by turning his body, Jude then kicked into the air.

Just like Landius, he gained momentum by releasing energy from his soles.

And used Black Dragon’s Ascent while in that state.

It was truly a fiendish double attack.

If Madhur blocked Jude’s attack, Cordelia would attack.

If Madhur tried to hit Cordelia, Jude would attack.

In the end, Madhur was beaten up by the two in turns.

“Aack!”

Madhur moved his injured arm to block Jude’s attack. The energy of the black dragon exploded on his shield, and at that moment, the detonating cord wrapped around his right arm again. It exploded once more before he could even say something.

“Kaaaaak!”

His arm did not break this time either. But as injury was added to injury, his arm lost its strength. His right arm drooped, and Jude did not miss that gap.

Bang!

Hyper-Fast Thunderbolt.

Jude instantly disappeared from Madhur’s sight. But Madhur predicted which way Jude would move – to the right. So he quickly defended his right side.

It was as he expected.

Madhur evaded Jude’s sword-like hand by turning swiftly. He did not stop there as he strengthened his left foot to become an axis while forcibly swinging his right arm. He tried to crush Jude with his huge fist.

A counterattack following a picturesque evasion.

He was indeed one of Malekith’s three knights, but unfortunately, it wasn’t Jude who was only present in this place.

The moment Madhur gave strength to his left foot, a fiendish voice was heard from his back.

“<Grease!>”

“Aaah!”

He slipped.

His balance was shaken because of the floor that had quickly become slippery. Therefore, Madhur’s punch became a miss, and Jude dug into that gap. The energy of the sun struck Madhur’s side.

“Kaaaack!”

Power of the Sun.

The shock that was transmitted through the armor pushed Madhur back as he vomited blood. He staggered as if he was about to fall, but managed to adjust his posture.

But it was not over. Because Cordelia’s last detonating cord wrapped around his waist this time.

“The f*ck!”

Following his sudden curse, an explosion occurred again this time.

But unlike before, there was no blood. Because Madhur had dispelled the magic that turned him into a giant, returning to a dwarf’s original size.

Claclaclang!

Madhur’s sword and shield fell to the ground. The leg part of the armor also collapsed.

But the body part remained. Rather, the parts covering the arms and legs then combined with the body part to form a solid barrier.

It was the absolute defense posture that Madhur used before moving on to phase 2.

‘He hides himself in his armor like a turtle as he recovers his strength.’

Without his giant transformation magic, Madhur was a small person even among the dwarves. Therefore, it was possible for him to hide in the body part of his armor as much as possible.

‘In the game, we had no choice except to wait…’

But this was reality now. Madhur’s armor boasted of an absolute defense, but the law of destruction still applied to it.

Jude looked at Cordelia who immediately nodded. Because she instinctively had a similar thought.

“Art is an explosion.”

With a smile, Cordelia took out from her waist a bundle of dynamite that Jude had made, and lit the fuse.

She pushed her hand inside Madhur’s armor and shoved it in.

Fairy Steps.

Being able to pass through all attacks meant it could also pass through anything.

Cordelia released the dynamite in her hand and promptly pulled it out.

She had used up all of the Fairy Steps today, but it was not a complete waste. Madhur was an enemy worthy of this much trouble.

Booooom!

An explosion burst inside the armor.

The parts of the armor that was building some kind of shelter fell down one after another. Because the explosion inside caused the union of the parts to be broken.

“Kaack… haaak…”

Madhur was covered in blood as his armor broke and he threw up black blood. His eyes were filled with anger and chagrin.

“Y-you demons…”

Madhur had never experienced a battle like this.

Jude and Cordelia did what they had to do instead of being embarrassed with Madhur’s compliment – no, it was not a compliment.

In the midst of the explosion, Cordelia picked up the pouch that had fallen off Madhur’s waist.

“Huh? There are five tokens.”

There were five tokens of Carlos inside the pouch. But Madhur had only attacked four families.

What in the world is going on?

Did Scarlet get it wrong? Did she mistake it for four families when five families were actually attacked?

But it wasn’t.

Scarlet wasn’t wrong.

“Because one family betrayed us.”

“Huh?”

“One of the 7 southern families joined hands with Malekith, or rather, Sicily.”

So it was five, not four.

That was why Madhur attacked Count Kagehama so openly.

“You’re also attacking Kajsa’s house now, right?”

Madhur was startled at Jude’s words. Because it was as Jude had said.

“You’ve already collected five out of seven, and all that’s left are the tokens of Count Kagehama and Marquis Ophand. That’s why you’re attacking so openly.”

If only Count Kagehama had been attacked, Madhur’s subordinates wouldn’t have created such chaos.

If Count Kagehama fell first, the Ophands would make preparations to stop an army and not just a thief.

“But if you attack at the same time from the very beginning, you won’t have to worry about such things. Isn’t that right?”

At Jude’s words, Kajsa who had been watching from afar then exclaimed in admiration, while Cordelia shrugged her shoulders, feeling proud as if she had said it herself.

And Madhur laughed. Although he was dying, he burst out laughing.

“Kahaha! Ahahaha! Yes, you are right. Everything is as you said.”

He also sent troops to Marquis Ophand.

The number of troops there were almost three times more than the one mobilized for Count Kagehama.

“Marquis Ophand will perish today. We’ll take the tokens, and you’ll never be able to collect all seven tokens!”

Carlos’ tokens were nothing more than family crests if they didn’t collect all seven.

So Madhur smiled brightly. He let out malicious words without holding back.

But it was strange.

Because Jude and Cordelia were not disturbed at all.

They even laughed out loud.

“W-why?”

Why are you laughing now?

Jude and Cordelia turned to Kajsa instead of answering, and Kajsa grinned as she teasingly said.

“No, the token’s here. We’ve already collected all seven.”

“W-what?”

She wasn’t bluffing. Kajsa took out the real token of Marquis Ophand from her waist pocket.

“W-why?”

“Just… I just had a bad feeling about it.”

Cordelia smiled at the reason of the original beast girl, Kajsa, but not for Madhur.

Because it reminded him of his lifelong nemesis, Janifer Ophand.

“Y-you Ophand family b*stards!”

You just had a bad feeling, so you took the token with you?!

“And perhaps my house will be fine too?”

Even if Madhur wasn’t there.

Even if only demons and low-ranking demonic humans were sent there.

“Because mister is there.”

Sebastian Leguin, the Sword of Swiftness.

He woke up late in the afternoon, and had lost all his memories of the past month, but he was now completely free of Sicilia’s brainwashing.

“Because my father and older brothers are there too.”

The Ophands and Kagehamas were different.

It would be no exaggeration to say that the Ophands were the most powerful of the 7 southern families when it simply came to military force.

Moreover, the entire family had gathered due to Kajsa’s sudden return.

The current Marquis Ophand, who was normally away from home, and even her first and second older brothers, had all returned home, so one could say that her family was in a perfect condition to fight.

“Ugh… guu…”

From Madhur’s perspective, this was a truly crazy situation.

What had happened to him also drove him nuts, but he was also surprised that Sebastian Leguin, whom Sicilia had tried to get on their side, was now protecting Marquis Ophand.

Sicilia and Madhur knew that Sebastian was at the Ophands, but did not expect that Sebastian would wake up already.

And in fact, Sebastian would not have woken up if the sirens hadn’t treated him.

“Damn… you…”

Madhur let out a curse before he slumped.

It was a natural result since he was holding out as he cursed while being fatally wounded.

“Oh, level up.”

Cordelia smiled as she was surrounded by rings of white, and so did Jude.

Although Madhur was in a weakened state, the amount of experience they gained was significant since he was one of Malekith’s three knights.

“Wow, we got four.”

Because of the level up, Jude and Cordelia were almost level 90 now.

Cordelia jumped in happiness, while Jude looked back at Kajsa.

“Kajsa.”

“Yes, I know.”

They still had something to do before heading to Marquis Ophand.

“Here, here.”

When Cordelia brightly smiled and gave her the five tokens Madhur had collected plus Count Kagehama’s token, Kajsa laughed out loud at that moment.

“Why?”

“No, it’s just…”

When she thought about it again, the two in front of her were the ones who defeated a Kraken.

So it was not surprising that they defeated Madhur.

Kajsa had a big smile again as she took the tokens from Cordelia who tilted her head, wondering why Kajsa was laughing. Kajsa then took a deep breath.

She turned to Jude and said.

“Shall I put it together?”

“Yes, put it together.”

To connect the tokens Carlos gave to his seven knights one by one.

Kajsa began to join the tokens one by one, and the tokens interlocked with each other as it became one.

And the last one.

The token of Marquis Ophand.

Kajsa moved her hand while Cordelia swallowed hard.

The final piece was put together to complete Carlos’ tokens.
