To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor Chapter 84

Episode 84 Defending the Border (3)

As Ray expected, the troops defending the border were on the defensive.

They had no choice but to choose Mercury in the end, as they had already retreated to the end.

Knight Commander Heor let out a sorrowful voice.

“Keuuh… Will they end up being driven to Mercury…”

His murmur caused even the other Paladins to droop their shoulders.

Since they came to Mercury, they had no choice but to endure the time.

Since he had contacted all the kingdoms that existed on the continent, reinforcements would probably come sooner or later.

In particular, what they believe in is the reinforcements of the Lessian Empire.

As much as they claimed to be the strongest country on the continent, their combat power was considerable.

A cavalry unit with excellent tactics and talented knights to support them.

In the back, there was a corps of magicians who destroyed enemy lines, so if they came as reinforcements, it would feel like they had gained a thousand troops.

If they can hold out for another day or so, the Lessian Empire will arrive.

If that happens, these undead will be able to get rid of them to some extent.

That was exactly what Heor was aiming for.

‘If I can buy time, I will be able to block the border as much as I can.’

To do so, he had to lead an advantageous battle in Mercury.

He shouted at the courtiers.

“Do not save holy water on the arrowhead and bury it! The Holy Knights will remove the undead climbing up the walls!”

“All right!”

“yes!”

Along with a loud reply, the undead poured incessantly and rushed to break down the gate.

However, the gate was so hard that it did not break easily.

In addition, it was fortunate that monsters with power enough to break down the castle gate due to the unnecessarily large number of undead were not able to approach the gate.

Undead warriors started climbing the walls.

In the case of distant undead or aerial undead, archers intercepted them, and paladins and royal guards blocked undead that approached close.

It was indeed a textbook arrangement of Mercury.

However, the undead were not so easy opponents.

Aerial monsters and banshees caught the undead knights and warriors and started flying through the sky and dropping them over the wall.

As a result, the formation simply collapsed.

The members of the Holy Altar run away in a hurry, and the paladins who leave their seats and try to kill the undead to protect them.

Only the guards stood guard and guarded the walls.

Among them, there was one object of Death Knight.

The power of the Death Knight is strong. A sword that is wielded with not only power but also encroaching on the surroundings with demonic energy is difficult to deal with.

It was to the extent that an intermediate Aura user could see the sword face to face.

Heor saw the Death Knight aiming for the Holy Altar and stopped in front of him.

“Where!”

Paang-

Swords must have collided, but there was a piercing sound that sounded like something was about to explode.

As if angry at the person blocking him, the Death Knight began to swing his sword at a speed that did not match his size.

Heor

stepped back in fright at the sword mixed with demonic energy that rained down at terrifying speed cutting through the wind.

The demonic power was so thick that he couldn’t even raise his sword to stop it.

Is this the Death Knight commanded by the Necromancer? It was so strong that words could not come out.

If only one object is this much, what will happen if one more object comes!

It was horrifying to imagine what would happen.

Heor injected a lot of divine power into the sword and blocked the Death Knight’s demonic energy.

Paaang-

The surrounding air exploded and created a fresh wind.

“How dare the undead look at the nation established by God!”

With an angry cry, he lifted the bastard sword and cut the body of the Death Knight. Seeing

that

the sensation was transmitted to his hand, it seemed that a blow had been struck.

The Death Knight’s body was slightly cut along with the armor.

Divine power penetrated the Death Knight’s body and purified the cut part.

“Koooooo!”

With a cry that dyed the surroundings in fear, the Death Knight looked at Heor with eyes filled with pain.

There was a tremendous sense of intimidation in the flashing red eyes.

Heor spit out the blood in his mouth, feeling the demonic energy that grew thicker with him.

“Keuuuk twee!”

‘Anyway, it seems that the limit has come….’

Due to the excessive movement even before the mercury, the undead have already cut parts of his body here and there.

Because of that, the demonic energy began to infiltrate the body, and it was somehow blocked by divine power.

However, because the divine power was injected into the sword forcibly, the demonic energy was spreading through the body again.

At this level, it would probably be too much to hold out for an hour.

Several words were heard along with screams here and there.

“Why is Seongjae still not coming!”

“It’s quite a distance from Selonia to the border! It should probably arrive tomorrow or so!”

“Come tomorrow, we’ll all be lost!”

“This is why young people!”

The saint and the saintess were caught in a bundle and the sound of cursing poured out here and there.

Never helped in an emergency.

agent of god? What do you believe in the saints! Those who are not there when you really need them.

With their shouts, the three Death Knights crossed the wall and entered.

“Kuaaa!”

With a scream that shook the earth, the Death Knights were screaming at them.

Overwhelming strength imbued with demonic energy. Three paladins lost their lives with a single sword strike.

There are a total of four such Death Knights.

How could such a difference in forces be prevented?

Reinforcements from the Lessian Empire will come, so let’s hold out until tomorrow? It couldn’t have been a dog whistle.

What kind of nonsense is tomorrow in a situation where you won’t be able to survive for the next 20 minutes!

Banshee screaming as if crying in the sky, and Death Knight roaring in front of them.

In addition, undead who do their best to break down the castle gate and monsters whose end is unknown.

In this already hopeless situation, there was no option other than dying.

Most of them gave up their lives and stared blankly at the Death Knight.

The will to return alive was already broken.

The Death Knight screamed and charged at them like beasts, leaving afterimages of red eyes.

They will probably lose their lives faster than they can run.

He closed his eyes and waited for death. Soon you will hear the ghastly sound of a decapitation.

“……!”

“……!”

Shoot ah –

But not the creepy sound I was expecting, only the sound of the wind lingered in my ears.

No pain felt over time.

At this point, it should have been normal if his neck was far enough off the ground.

They carefully opened their closed eyes.

Then, the Death Knight was nowhere to be found, and only a young man with blindingly white hair was standing there.

Ray raised his head and looked outside the castle gate.

“A lot is too much.”

A cold smile crept across his lips as he looked at the corpses around him.

* * *

“Huh?”

When the reaction of the Death Knights suddenly disappeared, the brown robed old man tilted his head.

‘It’s strange… I’m sure these aren’t the kids whose reactions will disappear.’

I tried again to scatter Magi, but still no response.

Could it be that someone got rid of the Death Knight?

The thought came to my mind in an instant, but I shook my head.

That is nonsense.

It was because it was impossible for even a sword master to get rid of the four Death Knights in an instant.

The old man, thinking that there must be a reason, did not take it seriously and raised the corpse again and resurrected the undead. With the sound of something growing on the ground, the undead were created as if

they

were there from the beginning.

Infinite Troops An indefatigable army.

Can there be a better word than this?

no there won’t be Now and in the future, his undead army will leave its name in history.

Just like the previous necromancer who brought the age of sorcery to an end.

* * *

“Seongja Seo?”

“How… at the border already…?”

They muttered in disbelief.

Without even time to answer, Ray began giving orders.

“That’s okay, so the paladins are picking out the injured right now. Priests and priests treat the wounded as they see them. The Royal Guard will guard the Holy Altar from now on.”

The commanders responded to the orders pouring down like rapid-fire cannon without even having time to say anything.

“Oh, I see…”

“What are you doing! move now! The Holy Son has come!”

Everyone started moving in unison.

It was not unreasonable for them to move so swiftly as soon as they saw Ray.

As expected, the divine power floating around Ray’s body was now out of control.

As he unsparingly spread the divine power he had been holding down, anyone around him could feel his divine power.

Ray’s tremendous holy power, enough to make their skin tingle, boosted their morale again.

Just a moment ago, when he caught up with Ray and Iriel and cursed at them, he became a strong supporter and became a great loyalist when he appeared.

Heor and Bael, the leader of the Holy Altar, asked anxiously.

“…I apologize to my saint, but if we turn our troops to treat the wounded, we will no longer be able to stop the undead army.”

“That’s right. For now, it would be better to hold out until reinforcements from other kingdoms arrive than to be wounded.”

He lowers his head and lowers his body as if to apologize.

At that, Ray shook his head.

“Does the situation seem urgent right now?”

“yes?”

“What…”

they asked, and Ray gestured around.

At that, Heor and Bael looked around. The surroundings are very quiet, unlike a little while ago.

Only then did they realize something.

‘So many banshees… disappeared…’

‘The undead climbing the walls disappeared…?’

Numerous questions were easily absorbed into the terrible divine power emanating from Ray’s body.

Ray smiled at their shocked expressions.

“You two take care of the wounded.”

He jumps down the wall while talking.

It should be 10 meters tall, but he jumped down without hesitation.

They don’t know, but Ray trained countless times in the elven village.

Compared to the height of Aira’s house, 10 meters was nothing.

After descending to the gate, he took one step closer to the undead rampaging to break down the gate.

Divine power radiated towards them.

“Queueek!”

“Quaaaaagh!”

A scream that seemed to cut their throats rang out.

During the battle, the undead warriors and knights who were so strong melted in an instant as they approached Ray.

Ray took another step.

The banshees floating in the air died as they were, shedding tears of blood.

Those who watched the scene from the top of the castle wall looked at Ray with eyes shaking at his majesty.

Does that mean a saint? Indeed, it was the appearance of a person worthy of being called the representative of God.

No undead could pass behind his back.

Is this what it means for a god to protect them? In front of his overwhelming divine power, those who watched it from the top of the castle wall swallowed their saliva.
