Chapter 120 - EPISODE 120 – LEGEND OF HEROES (2/2)
Her whole body didn’t have any strength left.
It was just like how they felt when they accepted the power of the wild god, and even if Jude and Cordelia were powerful, it was too much for their bodies to handle.
The two landed on the ground, and Lena hurried after them.
And Haraken saw these three people.
Anger spread on his face as he lost his senses.
“Euaaaaaah!”
He was so angry that he couldn’t even properly say a word.
Haraken’s face became contorted, and his body swelled.
The Hell Gate had disappeared.
The Demon Prince’s arrival failed.
What that meant.
Haraken’s own failure.
A disastrous failure that only consumed enormous resources and power in the wild lands, but eventually achieved nothing!
“Because of you! You!”
Several horns protruded from Haraken’s forehead and back. His already huge body was covered with a black and hard shell.
And Haraken was not alone.
The monsters and demons still remained.
They did not disappear just because the Hell Gate disappeared.
And Haraken still had the Angry Bull tribe whom he did not dispatch to the battle.
“Kill.”
He had to kill them.
Those two damn b*stards must be ripped apart.
Haraken looked far away as he roughly exhaled.
The fight began on the hill again.
The battle was fierce in the first place.
Because of the Demon Prince’s curse, the wild gods were unable to hastily move. They were busy from pushing away the Demon Prince’s curse.
So he had time.
Enough time to crush those b*stards in front of him!
“Go!”
The Angry Bull tribe responded to Haraken’s orders. They got up from where they were waiting and rushed towards Jude and Cordelia.
The monsters and demons did not stand still. They vented their hatred towards the two who closed the Hell Gate.
“I will not allow it!”
Lena loudly shouted and let out her magic.
Her mana was almost depleted because she successively cast Day of Judgment, but she was still one of the five heroes. She was one of the best archwizards in the entire Pleiades.
Golems rose from the ground. They formed a defensive formation and became a wall to stop the attacking demons.
But it was not enough.
Lena’s legs were trembling.
She alone could not stop all the monsters and demons.
Moreover, the Angry Bull tribe would be joining in a little while.
“Haa, haa… Golden Dragon King.”
Cordelia looked up the sky as she profusely sweated.
She wanted to blame him for the rough consequences of using his power, but Cordelia still had a conscience despite that.
The Golden Dragon King wasn’t feeling normal due to the explosions in the entire wild lands.
He must have done his best for them already.
“What should we do?”
Cordelia asked Jude who was lying in her arms, and he answered in that condition.
“Let’s go to Plan C.”
“What’s that?”
“I suck the potion, and you use mana drain.”
Then they would somehow be able to take some emergency measures.
Jude drank the remaining stamina recovery potion, and Cordelia absorbed Jude’s stamina and converted it into mana. She then cast a powerful shield with Count Chase’s ring instead of using offensive magic.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The rushing monsters banged on the shield after destroying the golems Lena had summoned.
Lena sank on her knees with a thud, and Cordelia clenched her teeth.
She had to hold out somehow.
The eastern forces would solve the current situation if she endured for some time.
And she was right.
Great Storm sensed the crisis of the three people and guided a do-or-die squad led by Red Wind and Sun Song as they left the front lines in order to rescue the three.
‘Endure, endure, let’s endure this, Cordelia!’
Cordelia grit her teeth as she continued to sweat. Whenever the monsters hit the shield, her entire body ached as if she had been directly hit, but she endured and endured.
A little more, a little more!
“No way…”
Lena said.
Jude sensed the reason.
It was in the ground.
Monsters were approaching from under the ground where the shield couldn’t cover.
They were in a very dangerous situation.
A crisis after a miraculous reversal.
‘Only Cordelia.’
Jude clenched his teeth. His stamina was drained because of mana drain, but he somehow stood up and chanted the mnemonic chant of Ninth Heaven’s Nine Doors. He tried to create a golden whirlwind once again.
And then, at that very moment.
Cordelia blinked her eyes.
She was doing her best to maintain the shield, but she was the first to notice.
Because her very sensitive senses noticed it.
‘The ground.’
It was reverberating.
It was vibrating.
It was not because of the dragon vein’s runaway.
It was not because of the monsters who were digging the ground.
A different kind of vibration.
Another vibration that came from the south and heading north.
‘Really?’
Cordelia looked at Jude, and he blinked his eyes. He got up and turned to the south. He unconsciously opened his mouth in delight.
“Weak guy.”
In the south.
In the outskirts that were somewhat far from the center of the Snow Breeze Plain where Jude and Cordelia were.
Count Chase stood there.
To be exact, he was riding on a pure white horse, and Violent Avalanche was sitting behind him.
He did not see it.
But as a powerful wizard, he could feel it faintly.
What occurred in Snow Breeze Plain.
The miracle caused by both Jude and Cordelia.
“He’s still lacking.”
In protecting Cordelia.
Jude was still extremely weak.
So he would help them just this once.
Count Chase’s horse ran.
Within a short time, he charged towards the Angry Bull tribe, the monsters, and the demons who turned to him.
And Jude saw it.
Cordelia could feel it once again.
The vibrations in the ground.
Those who followed Count Chase.
“Jackdaw!”
Jude cried out in a roar.
Those who guarded the northern border.
The shield of the Sälen Kingdom.
The brave knights of the north!
“Jackdaw! Annihilate the enemies!”
Count Hræsvelgr caught up with Count Chase and cried.
The Jackdaws responded to his command while on their black horses.
“Annihilate!”
“Annihilate!”
Half of the ten thousand Jackdaws were here now.
Thanks to Count Chase’s wide range assistive magic, they marched at an unusual pace and reached this place in time.
Over 5,000 elite cavalry who wore black cloaks and rode on black horses charged towards the Angry Bull tribe!
“Jude! Cordelia!”
Lucas yelled.
And Jude and Cordelia changed their expressions as they recognized Lucas.
The two burst into a bright smile at the same time.
And the two then knew. The fact that Gaël and Adelia were among them too!
Baaang!
The vanguard of the Jackdaws smashed and trampled the Angry Bull tribe.
The charge of the great northern horsemen was no different from a disaster itself.
“Go!”
Trample and crush them.
The trained knights of the Jackdaws boasted a combat power that made them the strongest in the north!
“Sage King’s Cross Sword!”
Jude exclaimed as Count Hræsvelgr showed off the majesty of the true Sage King’s Cross Sword.
He ran through the battlefield with a white Aura Blade, and no one dared to stop him.
And Count Chase.
He soared up into the sky. He saw the monsters pushing the eastern forces and unleashed on their backs the powerful magic he had prepared for the past two days.
“Rain of Fire.”
He cast magical arrows with a wave of his hand.
And a barrage of fire fell down from the skies.
Count Chase was indeed one of the Northern Sagang. Hundreds and thousands of fire arrows fell down from the sky and burned the monsters and demons. It assisted the eastern forces in pushing against the monsters.
“Open the way!”
Red Gale shouted.
The eastern forces finally began to overpower the demons. The squad led by Great Storm joined the Jackdaws.
Haraken angrily screamed at them.
Count galloped straight towards that guy.
And Jude turned to Cordelia.
Cordelia also turned to Jude.
Jude smiled as he leaned his head on Cordelia’s lap. Cordelia also showed her best smile.
A scene that was unimaginable in the original.
A world where Red Gale led the eastern forces, Red Wind and Sun Song ran together, and the wild gods were not corrupted. A world where Count Chase and the Jackdaws led by Count Hræsvelgr, fought to protect the wild lands.
Lena stood right next to them.
Gaël lived and didn’t die and was with Adelia.
“This is the best.”
Cordelia said at some point, and Jude agreed with her.
The two looked at each other again and exchanged their best smiles.
