48 [1-48] Well done. (1/2)

This is a ...... ritual magicized ”Sanctuary”?

The royal capital is enveloped in a pure white glow.

It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your money.

It's a high level sacred magic ”Sanctuary”.

It's a great way to cleanse your surroundings and keep out impure beings and forces.

If any undead were to jump into it, they would be cleansed in an instant.

It's probably ritual magic, since it's spread over such a large area.

If a large number of people work together to distribute the burden, prepare catalytic items to fuel the magic, and spend plenty of time, they can use advanced magic and perform miraculous feats. This is called ritual magic.

”...... Alastor, what is this?

”I'm sorry, sir. It's a scenario we've been eliminating as unfeasible.

I asked Alastor how this was going to play out, and his reply was apologetic.

I'm not angry, just tell me why you eliminated them. It might help us in the future.

”Huh.

First of all, it seemed unlikely that the Order would come up with such a large-scale defensive magic and request it from the temple.

Ritual magic in the temples of King's Landing was only used to perform important reanimation of the dead, and there were difficulties with the proficiency of the priests and the stockpiling of catalysts.

For these reasons, we have ruled out the possibility.

”Hmm ......, let's keep that in mind. I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one.

The reason why the temple unexpectedly used ritual magic is also a matter of concern, but what we need to do now is to deal with it.

The point is to break the wards, right?

Is it possible?

We can't do anything if we don't try.

You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.

A rock cannon was firing on the city wall.

I don't know if it's the explosion of gunpowder or magic, but some kind of propulsion fired the cannonball, and it didn't fall ...... on the line of undead, it landed far in front of the line.

Trial run?

Probably. But in a war between humans, when the war starts, people sometimes fire their cannons at each other. Therefore, the roar of artillery is considered to be a signal to start a war, and firing artillery unilaterally without sending a messenger is the ultimate in rudeness.

I see, I see. I see. So the fact that defensive ritual magic was used is a declaration of war.

That's what I thought.

I looked over and saw an archer holding a longbow on the city wall. He was aiming diagonally upward with a trajectory of shooting arrows in a mountainous direction.

The range of the longbow is greater than that of a cannon. The longbow's range is greater than a cannon's. It surpasses most magic in power and range when it comes to long-range attacks.

Ordinary arrows do not do much damage to undead, but they will definitely soak their arrows in holy water before shooting them. ≪It will do the same damage to undead as a weapon that has been ”consecrated”.

”Hmph.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.

A reddish-black light the size of a soccer ball converges on the tip of the wand.

It was the first to notice the attack.

The first to notice the attack were, of course, the knights on the city walls, who were in a fighting stance.

What?

The artillerymen who were cleaning the muzzles of the cannons were stunned at the sight of the oncoming flash of death.

But the flash stopped right in front of them.

It hits the barrier of holy air and stops, only to spark like a spitting match.

Realizing that he was not going to die, the artilleryman staggered to his feet.
