Chapter 165

Trap of Trap (2]

Hollien murmured, alternating between the Sungha village and Clovis Castle,

"So, Viscount Clovis betrayed me?"

There were no viscount’s knights or soldiers in the castle, Of course, the viscount himself was nowhere to be found,

They all seemed to have escaped last night,

Leon Hart replied in a solemn voice,

"He wasn't so foolish as to be unable to distinguish true justice, Fairy Queen,"

"But he had a pretty friendly personality, Isn't there anything surprising?"

The real weakness of the Top Three was that they weren't open to each other.

The deeper faith the person had, the more likely he was to betray,

No, he wouldn't even think of it as a betrayal,

On the contrary, punishing Hollien would be considered the right allegiance to the Fairy Kingdom,

With her arms folded, she smiled bitterly,

"Oh, for the record, I'm not angry because I’m guilty."

If that was the case, there was no problem in fighting a street war,

A burnt house could be rebuilt,

It ended would just end in a financial loss,

"I understand why you killed the Aliens in advance."

There was a reason why the Holy Punishers couldn't use such an operation before, which was much more efficient than an ambush under the advantage of night's big change,

That was because Akhtarun's Aliens were still around back then,

However, currently, the only people stationed in the castle were low-level guardian knights, allowing the Holy Punishers to overwhelm them easily, If Akhtarun’s Aliens were their opponents, they wouldn't dare attack, The two before her wouldn't either,

Watching the battle throughout the village, Hollien shook her head,

"Oh, my God, you managed to deal a heavy blow to me,"

Allendia's army was just a regular army without her support,

Of course, they were normal in terms of the three continental powers, but the templars, the elites of the Church, were far stronger than they were,

The Holy Punishers had certainly cut off her hands and feet and isolated her,

"Your Highness, my Queen!"

Leslie ran to the courtyard,

"Don't come here, Leslie, You’re not strong enough to fight them,"

After raising her hand to stop Leslie, Hollien stared at Ryu Han-bin and Leon Hart,

"Well, what's next? Are you going to punish me in the name of the Goddess?"

Suddenly, powerful Prana began to bloom from the whole body of the Fairy Queen,

Her energy was cold, creepy, and life-threatening,

’Ugh!’

Ryu Han-bin and Leon Hart, who faced the Prana head-on, turned pale,

Hollien smiled widely.

" With only the two of you?"

The Holy Punishers forced the Allendia Army into a corner.

However, they couldn't say the same for the Transcendental.

Looking around the dark front yard, she murmured nonchalantly,

"There’s no such traps in this castle,"

No matter how secret the seals or magic traps were, they would eventually be revealed if the caster's level difference and the target were severe,

The caster had to be at least level 130 to set up a powerful seal that even Hollien, a level 155 Spiritist, wouldn't be able to notice,

And in that era, such powerful Mages and Spiritists didn't exist except for the Top Three,

"Then, do you think you’ve succeeded after you trapped my men?"

Talking to herself, she shook her head,

"I don't think so. I know you, Leon Hart. Kybriel's Templar Lord isn't that stupid,"

If the Holy Punishers wanted to deal with her, they had to lure her to a well- prepared location and attack her with everything they had,

Only through that did they have a better chance of winning,

"You didn't turn this meeting into a trap, so I guess you've prepared something else,.."

Hollien slowly began to move.

"What is it? I'm really curious,"

Han-bin and Leon Hart stepped back unknowingly,

'Uh...'

'Oh, my God, she's so strong...'

She took slow steps, but each one brought down invisible pressure upon the duo,

"Why don't you show me your hidden card? The reason why I keep talking to you is due to such a simple expectation and request,"

With a lifeless smile, Hollien loosened her arms,

"If you don't want to show me, then there's no reason to keep you alive anymore,"

At that moment, a beautiful woman with black hair appeared,

She was on the top of the wall, about 20 meters away from Hollien,

"Of course, they're not that stupid,"

Hollien's eyes widened when she saw the newcomer,

'Huh?'

She looked familiar,

Of course, Hollien hadn't seen her in person, but she had seen her in a portrait drawn by the troops of the Fairy Kingdom,

"... Kybriel?"

The Incarnation of darkness revealed herself in person?

'How dare she show herself in front of me?'

She couldn't do such a crazy thing!

Hollien turned on the Guideline out of embarrassment.

What she saw made her feel even more so.

[Race: Goddess. Lv. Unknown.]

'She's the real Goddess.'

Unconsciously, Hollien tapped her finger.

- Ectoplasmic hold,

A milky vine stretched out towards Kibie,

Hollien was trying to catch the target she had been searching for for so long. To think she would appear right before her in such an arrogant fashion.

"How dare you!"

Ryu Han-bin and Leon Hart immediately flew away,

The spiritual boxing technique and the Aura-based attack caused an explosion, tearing apart the Prana-based assault,

Boom!

With her fingers up, Hollien clicked her tongue,

'Well, I expected them to be able to stop that, They are the Sword King's heir and the third person to be blessed by the Goddesses, after all.'

She was trying to pull Prana up to start fighting in earnest.

Kibie raised her right hand, speaking coldly.

"Don't rush, Hollien. This isn't the right place to execute your punishment,"

She heard the sounds of flapping behind Kibie, and a black Wyvern with a silver- haired mane soon appeared on the wall,

Kibie jumped up and climbed onto her back,

Ryu Han-bin and Leon Hart did the same,

They held onto the Wyvern on both legs as they paid close attention to Hollien,

"Follow me, Latna's sinner,"

The Wyvern flew into the air, taking three people with her,

Kibie calculatedly spoke as she stared at Hollien,

"Today will be your judgment day,"

The Wyvern slowly moved away,

Watching the scene, Hollien laughed as if she was dumbfounded,

"Oh, my God, I’m constantly off the mark."

Leslie shouted in a hurry.

"It's a trap, my Queen!"

"It must be the inducement!"

"I know that,"

The only way she wouldn’t know that was if she were a fool,

They were blatantly saying, ‘come and get caught by our the trap,’

Yeah, I knew that, but,..

"I have no other choice but to follow them."

As long as the incarnation of darkness was right in front of her, Hollien had no choice but to follow her.

It was the easiest and fastest way to end the situation.

"But no matter how strong you are, you alone, my Queen..."

"Huh? Alone what?"

The best Spiritist on Latna smiled and looked back at Leslie,

"Are you saying that if I fall into their trap, it’ll be dangerous?"

She was speechless,

"Well, that's not true,"

The wings of light spread behind Hollien's back,

"Wait for me, Leslie. I won’t take long,"

A blue flash soared into the air, turning at right angles and galloping over the air,

* * *

A silver-maned Wyvern crossed over the starry night sky.

The female nymph chased after her with blue lights surrounding her body,

Despite the huge level difference, she couldn’t easily cover the distance between them,

Flight wasn't originally a domain of Spiritists,

Hollien's level was so high that it became possible for her, but it was somewhat lagging compared to a real flying animal.

But there was nothing wrong with simply following them.

Looking at the back of Wyvern, who was flying hard in the distance, Hollien grinned,

'I was so bored before, but it’s gotten so much more fun,'

There wasn't any reason to be offended by their tricks,

Rather, she was grateful for it,

It was much easier to catch a hoot in plain sight than a hound running away,

‘I'm looking forward to it. What did they prepare for me?'

The incarnation of darkness appeared in person,

That was impossible unless she had complete trust in the Holy Punishers,

A deadly and dangerous trap awaited,

'There's no reason to follow you there, right?'

Playfully, Hollien raised one hand,

Their purpose was to lure her to the pitfalls.

But had they taken into consideration that they were going to crash amid their flight?

-Ectoplasmic Spear!

More than ten milky javelins appeared and were fired at the silver-maned Wyvern,

At that moment,,,

The Wyvern showcased her acrobatic talent, executing an exquisite twist by using her wings as leverage,

With a truly elegant flight trajectory, her attacks missed their target,

Hollien was surprised,

"You're not a normal Wyvern."

Like the Biryong Knights of the Xrad Kingdom, there were special forces on the Continental Three Powers that tamed flying monsters.

Examples included the Griffin Knights of Mado, the Rune Kingdom, the Hippogriff Knights of the Kaldris Kingdom, and the Pegasus Knights of Allendia, who had tamed Pegasi.

Hence, she knew about monsters capable of carrying people with her,

How difficult it must've been to fly with not just one person on her back but three,

"I've never seen such a wyvern that well-trained,,,"

Hollien fired a few more shots out of curiosity,

As expected, the Wyvern avoided them as well,

Even though it was an attack that came behind her, she avoided it as if she had an eye on her back,

It meant that her three-dimensional sense was enormous,

"She isn't that high-leveled, yet she's already so good at flying?"

She had never seen such a flying creature in the wild, let alone a passenger monster,

Hence, Hollien changed her offensive to spiritual skills that could track down and home in on the target at that time.

-Ectoplasmic chain!

The Wyvern seemed to have been hit by the assault that time,

However, Leon Hart and the Valtara warrior blocked it,

Boom!

Hollien clicked her tongue,

"I can't let you crash,"

To break through those two defenses, she needed to use stronger spiritual skills, which meant she had to stop flying for a while and chant the spell midair,

"You know what? I'll just follow you."

She had plenty of Prana.

The Wyvern, a flying animal, would be better at flying than her, but her endurance was better than the Wyvern. Hence, she would eventually catch them if she just kept following them until they were exhausted.

She had to conserve her energy to avoid letting the incarnation escape with the Wyvern later.

"Peacefully following them is too boring."

Hollien threw Ectoplasmic Spears at them.

The fiery yet milky trajectories continued to thunder through the air, cutting through the atmosphere.

Boom!

* * *

Someone once said that a frog died whenever a stone was cast randomly.

Effir was under a similar problem.

'Oh, argh!"

Desperately flying nonstop, the Wyvern burst into a scream.

Hollien was just throwing spears at them for fun, but they were too powerful for Effir to endure since the Transcendental was the one launching them,

"How much time do we have? I’m going to die in this way,..!"
