The Evil God Beyond the Smartphone

Chapter 191: Allemier (1)

Under the d ark clouds that covered the sky,

Revelz Etherunt, the knight commander, looked down from the wall where the soldiers of the holy land were lined up.

The land that reflected in Revelz’ eyes was strangely quiet.

On a normal day, he would have heard the cries of beasts, but today, even that was silent.

It was as if someone had cleared out all the animals around them.

‘I don’t like this feeling.’

Revelz stroked the black holy sword that hung on his waist, pondering.

He had a better intuition than the other knights in the holy land.

That aspect of Revelz had helped him several times on the battlefields he had crossed.

He could roughly guess the possibility of an enemy ambush or the advantage or disadvantage of a situation.

‘In this situation… The only ones who would come are those bastards from the cult.’

And his intuition was screaming at him this time.

It was not long ago that they opened the gate of heaven and summoned angels.

It was practically a declaration of war.

That meant it was not surprising if the cult attacked them right now.

Revelz gripped the hilt of his holy sword and ordered the soldiers on the wall.

“Everyone, prepare for battle.”

“Prepare for battle!”

Clang.

As soon as Revelz finished speaking, the soldiers grabbed their weapons and took their positions.

The knights also drew their swords and watched the land below the wall.

Starting with the knight at the front, the prayers of the knights echoed in sequence.

“O Goddess, guide me on the right path.”

“O Goddess, please…”

“Please, guide me on the right path.”

Revelz listened to the prayers of the knights as he looked at the forest in front of the wall.

He could see a faint smoke rising from a distant place.

The smoke from the forest confirmed his intuition.

Revelz quickly drew his black sword.

Swoosh.

With a sharp metallic sound, the dark blade absorbed the light around it.

“It’s an attack. Ring the bell.”

As soon as Revelz opened his mouth, a soldier on the tower rang the bell with all his might.

Ding—. Ding—. Ding—.

The heavy bell sound echoed and a frantic voice came out of the soldier’s mouth.

“It’s an attack! The enemy is invading!”

“It’s an attack!”

The bell sound from the tower spread throughout the city, announcing that the war with the cult of the evil god had begun.

As if responding to the majestic bell sound, the enemy army that had been stirring up dust from afar also revealed themselves.

Revelz was momentarily puzzled by the sight of the approaching enemy army.

The identity of the enemy that came from the forest was quite different from his expectation.

“They’re not the cult’s fanatics.”

The identity of the enemy that broke through the forest and ran towards the gate.

They were countless beasts that were running with madness in their eyes.

Deer. Rabbits. Horses. Wolves.

The beasts that lived in the forest were mixed together regardless of their species and ran towards the gate.

Despite being mixed with predators and prey, the horde of beasts was moving in perfect harmony.

“Beasts are running wild…”

“It seems that the evil god’s minions have done something!”

The knights who watched the scene exclaimed in horror.

Revelz agreed with them.

Numerous beasts were rushing towards the gate.

Only an evil god could create such a spectacle.

“Captain. How should we respond?”

It was obvious that it was a bait sent by the evil god.

But they were too many to ignore.

If they left them alone, they might eventually break through the city’s gate.”

Revelz was about to give an order to his subordinates who were waiting for his instructions.

“We can’t afford to lose soldiers over mere beasts. Shoot them with arrows from the wall…”

“The sky is black! The black sky is here!”

“Did you say the black sky?”

But his words were cut off.

One of the soldiers who was looking at the sky pointed at it with his finger and shouted in a loud voice.

Everyone on the wall followed the soldier’s scream and looked up at the sky.

A huge shadow was cast over the already gloomy sky.

As the sun began to be swallowed by the darkness, everyone there remembered the disaster they had faced before.

“The evil god’s… black sky…”

The black sky.

The evil god’s power was taking away the sun’s blessing and spreading darkness over the world.

Under the black sky, plants could not grow properly and those who were unprepared could not even see in front of them.

The people on the wall became tense at the sight of the darkened sky in an instant.

“It seems that the cultists are going all out from the start.”

In the darkness where the sun had completely hidden its face, only the torches hanging on the wall brightened their vision.

But even the vision illuminated by the torches was not enough to shoot arrows.

The archers on the wall were all rendered powerless by the evil god’s power that covered the sky.

It was certain that the cult had sharpened their blades to destroy the city.

And unfortunately for them, the enemy that came to the wall was not just a horde of beasts.

– “Revere.”

Underneath the black curtain that descended on the ground.

Someone’s voice echoed in the soldiers’ ears.

Revelz felt a tingling sensation in his nerves at the voice of someone he had never heard before.

The voice that echoed in the darkness was filled with immense magic.

– “Worship.”

Crackle. Sparkle.

Every time someone’s voice echoed, black lightning burst out of the darkness that filled the sky.

The black light that illuminated the darkness was a paradoxical sight.

And under that paradoxical sight, the bodies of the soldiers who looked up at the sky slowly stiffened.

– “Obey.”

Boom!

The black world flashed and dropped a bolt of lightning.

All eyes on the wall turned to where the lightning fell.

On top of the tower where the rope holding the bell was torn off.

There, an apostle wrapped in black lightning spread thunder around him.

“——The great one is watching you.”

The apostle of the evil god landed on the ground and folded his wings of lightning as he opened his mouth.

His eyes glowed red.

And his gauntlet sparked repeatedly.

The soldiers who were exposed to the power of lightning fell to the ground in front of the apostle of the evil god who scattered thunder.

Revelz lifted his black sword at the sight of the fallen soldiers.

‘As expected, the beasts at the gate were just a bait.’

Revelz, who was granted the black sword, had only one thing to do as always.

The extermination of the invaders who entered the holy land.

That was the mission given to the last guardian of Crossbridge.

He aimed his black sword at the apostle he saw in front of him.

“Enemy of the six goddesses. Reveal your name.”

With his black sword emitting aura in front of him, the apostle looked at him calmly.

He did not look down on Revelz or show any leisure.

He was just a similar kind to Revelz.

Crackle.

A black spark flew from the apostle’s gauntlet as he stared at Revelz.

“Second Apostle, Evan Allemier.”

The second apostle of the cult. Evan Allemier.

The apostle of the evil god who finished his brief introduction rose from his seat.

* * * * * *

The hero of knowledge, Hus Allemier, looked at the sky that was darkened.

Until a moment ago, it was a sky covered with dark clouds, but now only thick darkness replaced it.

The meaning of the disappeared sun was only one thing.

The evil god’s power covered the sky and created a black sky.

“A black sky…”

He could not see the sun anymore even if he looked up.

For a while, the sun’s light would not be granted to the people on the ground.

Instead, a beam of light filled with enormous magic flew out from beyond the darkness that covered the sky.

Boom—!

The beam of light with a tremendous heat collided with the barrier that covered the holy land.

“It’s finally time.”

Creak. Crack.

As he looked at the holy land’s barrier that began to crack slightly, Hus picked up the hieroglyph he had put down next to him.

The evil god’s army began to move seriously to target the holy land.

The apostles who followed the evil god also came here to act on behalf of the evil god’s will.

It also meant that he would soon have a meeting with Evan Allemier, whom he had longed for so much.

“Evan Allemier.”

The second apostle, Evan Allemier.

His brother’s name, which he had called out many times, felt awkward in Hus’s mouth.

The name of the noble knight he had always admired now sounded evil and gloomy.

The sturdy back that he had once followed was no longer in front of him.

Now he had to face his lost brother head-on.

He had to face not the blood who had protected and moved forward with him, but the enemy who blocked and must be overcome.

“Evan… Allemier.”

Once again, his blood’s name lingered on his lips.

Bright flames always cast shadows.

Evan Allemier was the shadow of the hero he had become.

Yet Hus wanted to be the brilliant light that would erase even that shadow.

He had to be the one to finish off the apostle of the evil god.

He had to end everything with his own hands, not anyone else’s.

“I’ve missed you for so long.”

That was the only destiny given to the hero.

Hus smiled bitterly and opened the hieroglyph.

Swoosh.

The hero’s device bestowed by the god of knowledge turned pages and created a huge light source by its own will in front of Hus.

The sphere of light floating in the air shone brightly on Hus even under the black sky.

The magic that created light was the only guide that would lead Hus in this darkness.

“——Hieroglyph.”

Under the light source that illuminated his vision, the hieroglyph quickly turned to a page engraved with teleportation magic.

It was the magic of Arein Crost, who was called the strongest mage, captured by the power of the device.

Hus had learned many magics under Arein Crost.

Now he was confident that he could defeat Evan even if he was his opponent.

It was time to prove the power he had accumulated over time.

“——Teleport.”

Hus muttered the name of the transfer magic, longing for a reunion with his blood.

Under the blue light that wrapped his whole body, Hus silently prayed to the sky.

Hus Allemier’s prayer to the sky was always the same.

—O Goddess, guide me on the right path.
