Chapter 94

“Hey, they’re here!”

One of the robed figures deployed in front of the entrance to the ruins pointed and shouted at Belcliff charging straight ahead, followed by Gray and others running behind him. At the same time, the followers of the Goddess cult prepared their bows with arrows and wielded their staffs to unleash magic.

“That’s… different from what we were told.”

A man wearing a robe with a different design muttered irritably. He was a priest of the Goddess cult and also the leader of the followers gathered here.

He had heard that the attackers were a duo consisting of a female swordsman and a thug.

Though he felt considerable urgency, knowing they were the ones who inflicted serious injuries on Cordo, one of the Four Knights, he still thought they were just two opponents.

He had intended to surround them with followers skilled in weaponry and magic and overwhelm them with sheer numbers. He had planned to wear them down with long-range attacks before sending in close combat units… But…

“Weren’t there supposed to be only two enemies? Why are there two Holy Knights here… And isn’t that Bellcliff, the impregnable, in that armor!”

Bellcliff.

A veteran Holy Knight of the Stria Holy Nation, a towering figure clad in a shining silver full-body armor known as the “Holy Armor of the Goddess.” He was called “Bellcliff the Impregnable” for always standing at the forefront of battle, never faltering despite any attacks he faced.

He never even took off his helmet, and not even his fellow Holy Knights knew his true face.

“Stop him! Don’t let him get any closer to us!”

As the priest loudly instructed the other followers, numerous attack spells and arrows were fired towards Bellcliff, who was at the forefront. But…

“Damn it! You monster!”

Explosions occurred from the incoming magic, raising a large amount of dust. Despite how many spells and arrows hit him, Bellcliff continued his charge without slowing down.

“…How can he take so many hits without a scratch?”

“Yeah, it’s incredible.”

Gray and Emilia exclaimed in amazement as they watched him. On the other hand, Scrud, who was accustomed to such scenes, continued running without paying attention to their reactions.

(From his appearance, he must be a follower of the Goddess cult… Why is he dragging that person along all this time?)

As Scrud pondered, the melee weapons of the Goddess cult followers clashed with Bellcliff.

“…This won’t do. I’ll go ahead as well.”

To avoid involving his comrades, Scrud said this as he readied his rapier when the long-range attacks of the Goddess cult followers stopped.

And in the next moment, Scrud, who should have been there, disappeared in an instant, and a follower wielding a warhammer behind Bellcliff fell, bleeding, to the ground.

The distance was originally about 20 meters from where Scrud had stood.

And amidst the numerous followers surrounding them, Scrud, swiftly maneuvering with his speed, steadily reduced their numbers, while Bellcliff, with overwhelming power and toughness, also decreased the number of followers.

Seeing this, Gray once again thought it was fortunate they didn’t have to fight Scrud seriously.

(If we had clashed with him seriously, Mia and the others would have been undoubtedly dragged into it…)

“Gray, we should…”

“Yeah.”

Considering the situation, it seemed like just the two Holy Knights were enough to handle it. But…

“What are you doing? Don’t stop! Keep casting magic and shooting arrows!”

“But, if we do that, our allies will…”

“I don’t care. Since Holy Knights have shown up, we’re just going to get slaughtered if we stay like this… Just do it!”

“Yes!”

When the priest shouted so loudly, the followers began preparing their bows and casting magic again.

Then, the priest whispered something to another follower nearby, and that follower, looking flustered, hurriedly entered the ruins.

“We must stop them here at all costs… What’s this?”

As the priest himself prepared his staff and was about to cast a spell, he suddenly heard what sounded like a person’s scream from above and looked up.

“Huh?”
