I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor

Episode 148

“The meat shield just died like a meat shield, but what the hell is wrong with it? huh? What are you guys complaining about?”

“I, Edgar Benaccio, am a noble bloodline that the likes of you cannot dare to speak to, and at the same time, I am a person who has sworn allegiance to Darius van Maurechion, the king of Arno Kingdom, and the Seyton family.”

“A vulgar girl like you is never someone to look at with both eyes open!!”

Whoa!

Edgar Venaccio’s body swelled with mana.

It was so pure mana that it was hard to think of having just dealt with a lycanthrope.

Being pure with mana means that you are good at controlling mana, and at the same time, the mana hole and the circle surrounding it have not yet been abused enough to show their full potential.

“Khehehehe!! It’s not like you’re dressed so vulgarly, but your body is very desirable. If you have the beauty of a 4-year-old, I, Edgar Benaccio, would gladly give you a favor.”

“You should consider it an honor! There will never be another mercy like this in your lifetime!”

“If you understand, get on your knees right now and apologize for your sins! I mean, prepare to fully serve this Edgar Venaccio!”

“…”

And Ser Kim rolls her eyes as she sees this crazy NPC in front of her eyes drooling with a frantic tone.

I felt a strong urge to seriously give up this quest and flee the battlefield.

As long as the Knights of Seyton had already written down the battlefield where adventurers and monsters were mixed and pushed it away without distinction.

The guild’s request to stop the monsters pouring out of the Forgotten Tower was tantamount to failure.

Because of the mad troll behavior of the Knights of Seyton, the adventurers’ front line has also been virtually torn apart.

It was because it was a distant task to block the additional monster wave that would follow.

‘Anyway, most of the rest of the expedition members are unable to fight and log out… The Knights who openly put such a crazy pervert as a member can’t be insane. They’re the ones who don’t think of us as anything more than tools in the first place. Even if it means being demoted from Platinum to Gold

…

Ser Kim bit her lip. In fact, organizing my thoughts was no different from an excuse.

Because she had no way or reason to turn this war situation 180 degrees.

Moreover, it was only natural that Ser Kim would be reluctant to escape even at the risk of a drop in the adventurer’s license level, now that he had no will to fulfill the quest given by the guild.

Yes, the answer has already been decided a long time ago.

However, the reason why she was unable to put the answer into action was that the disadvantage she would get from this escape was not just a drop in her adventurer’s license grade.

“Ah… I don’t want to be wanted.”

“What have you been muttering to yourself since earlier! It seems that the thought of wearing the favor of this Edgar Venaccio has already gone mad!”

“what. It’s a bastard that looks like it was hit with a mortar.”

“What haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Ser Kim, meanwhile, makes Edgar’s face red hot as Edgar throws off the bottom of his armor.

It was not difficult to see that the battle, which had been filled with beast-type monsters, was gradually entering a lull.

Although the Knights of Seyton indiscriminately pushed away the members of the adventurer’s guild, including himself, it was because of his considerable inaction, including Edgar, who looked like a rogue boat.

‘The intervals of the monster wave have so far been bursting in hourly cycles. If you want to take it out, you have to take it out now. The 7th monster wave is about this level, but if the level of the 8th monster wave is higher than this

…

Ser Kim raised Mana while Edgar was angry with a reddened face.

It was a rare opportunity that came to her.

The fact that we were able to block the current 7th wave of monsters was possible because we held the line even if the adventurer defense line at the forefront, consisting of 1-2-3 lines, all collapsed.

As a result, they were sacrificed by the same side and met an end like destruction.

Even if it wasn’t enough to cut off the tongue of that idiot right now, he didn’t have a relationship with Ser Kim that would take the place of revenge for the guild members who had already been sacrificed.

It was just a one-time expedition that came together due to the appearance of this twisted dimension.

Moreover, seeing that Edgar just took the initiative against the lycanthropes more easily than he thought, the possibility that her armed forces can purify the entire Seyton Knights is close to zero.

Even if that is possible, considering that the restoration of the Forgotten Tower this time is entirely done by the Sayton family.

As she foresaw earlier, it was never going to end with simply being demoted to an adventurer level.

Starting with the minimum wanted in the Arno Kingdom, it was unlikely that he would be able to even reach the southern continent.

For the kingdom of Arno and Count Seyton, it was more important than anything else to not lose the power to recover the Forgotten Tower immediately, rather than to question the appropriateness of a strategy like Lee Dae-dogang’s or personal deviation like Edgar’s.

Not to mention, the front yard of the Forgotten Tower was gradually being subjugated by the Knights, and it was natural enough that it didn’t need to be said that the front lines would be re-established to straighten out the battle lines.

It was a bonus to be filled with adventurers who survived without dying in the process and slaves from Arno Kingdom.

In any case, it was the first prince of the Seyton family who paid a fair price for the adventurer’s guild and hired the mercenary, and the first prince had no choice but to squeeze out manpower like tenacity in order to be recognized for his credit.

– Boo-oo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!

“…!”

That is, until the sound of horns suddenly reverberated across the battlefield.

* * *

“Retreat! Retreat!”

“Retreat aaaaaaa!!!”

As the horn rang out across the battlefield, explosions rang out from all directions.

The sharp retreat order and screams were a bonus.

The moment when even the sword expert class knights were stitched and their internal organs poured out at once in the unexpected surprise attack that swept the front yard of the Forgotten Tower and attacked the side of the circling Seyton Knights.

The front yard of the Forgotten Tower, which seemed to have entered a lull, began to get messy with the appearance of monsters he had never seen before, and at the same time, Ser Kim felt something flying quickly and raised his eyes.

“What the fuck is that about—.”

Fuck!

It was because a dark figure that had suddenly flown from the Forgotten Tower pierced Edgar’s back and protruded over his chest.

“Keep… ugh…!”

“Kirik! Kiriririk!”

A bloody, uncomfortable sound flowed from Edgar’s mouth, and ‘it’ raised its arm that had pierced his chest.

It was an all-grey monster.

Its head resembles that of a crocodile turtle and has a triangular chin, and its dark green shiny eyes emit fluorescent light like fireflies shining at night.

Its tail, which seemed to be a good two meters long, resembled the lance of the Knights of Seyton, and its dark gray smooth skin reminded me of Benvenuto Cellini’s bronze statue of Jupiter.

“Is this… what the hell…?”

Kwajijik!

Soon after, Edgar’s body plummeted to the floor with Ser Kim’s enchanted voice.

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

When the monster’s roar echoed, Ser Gimser quickly wrapped around his cloak.

The sound waves that burst out of his mouth were enough to blow away Edgar’s body.

However, what is incomprehensible is that every time Edgar’s body rolled on the floor, his flesh fell off as if he had been hit by a blunt instrument, and in the past, his limbs burst out and his shape became unrecognizable.

[Notice: Abnormal status!]

[Notice: Your defense has decreased!]

[Notice: Your magic resistance has decreased!]

[Notice: Your character has become < stiff >!

] It can’t be manipulated!]

And Ser Kim guessed that the sound waves bursting out from the monster contained some kind of magic power as a warning from the system.

Watching the gray cloak he was wearing was mercilessly beaten by the sound waves, he couldn’t help but be thrilled.

Of course, the cloak she wore in a circle boasted strong defense power that could withstand even the most determined fighting class and beaten.

Considering that it has played the role of an all-purpose barrier that has resistance and resistance that is compliant even to elemental magic based on the four elements.

It was because he could feel for himself that the sound wave contained considerable power even excluding various debuffs.

[Armored Lizard]

A lizardman that has been mutated due to some kind of power. Only males exist, and their steel-like skin and limbs boasting a grip of hundreds of kilograms, and a tail measuring about 2 meters are more powerful than a cavalry lance running at full speed.

The well-developed muscles and nerves, without any degeneration, enable reaction speed and movement that far exceed humans, and the three-pronged fingers and toes make it possible to move beyond common sense, such as running up the ceiling or running over a cliff, unlike walking on two legs. boasts of Even the body’s own magic resistance and status ailment resistance boast a high level, and it is possible to beat most magic and property attacks with bare body.

It is not affected by the climate, and it is not restricted in its movement even in lava fields with an average temperature of over 50 degrees or cold waves of around -20 degrees after diving for more than an hour with high-level swimming skills. It is characterized by very high intelligence and excellent learning ability, imitating or applying human movements to use unique physical techniques.

He has a very aggressive personality, and shows a cunning and cruel side. They try to breed through other humanoid races, and show unreasonable and shocking habits such as gang rape of females and killing their own people.

Species: Lizardman

Type: Elite

Level: 87

Special Note: Depending on the entity, this monster may use a skill such as Breath, so be very careful.

– Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

When the roar of the Armored Lizard rang out, Ser Kim was speechless.

Along with their cries, the wires were collapsing at high speed.

It is understandable that Edgar Benaccio died in one blow, so even though there are only a few of them, the Armored Lizards are tearing apart the Knights of Seyton.

Moreover, it was obvious that even the command center of the headquarters built to restore the Forgotten Tower would be pierced when it was overcoming the collapsed wires based on its terrifying physical abilities.

‘You have to run away quickly…’

Quaang!

Before long, the Armored Lizard in front of Ser Kim disappeared.
