Chapter 147 The Resurrected Corpse Running Away is Too Terrifying!

"O Merciful Lord! Most High Lord! Almighty Lord!"

Inside the simple church in Mirror Lake City, Pope Paul knelt on the ground in prayer.

"I foresaw your coming and listened to your revelations!"

"Lord! She is right there! I have given you the place; this feast will be yours alone!"

I do not ask for any blessings!

"Just as you give me selfless warmth in the cold winter, I am willing to... offer you... the whole world."

Praise be to you, my Lord!

"Praise be to... the twenty-four-winged angel!"

...

[Something...exploded.]

"It's absolutely explosive!"

El looked at the dead Keomi. His shield and sword had lost their properties and returned to their original form. The zombie features had also disappeared, and he was just a corpse.

He actually committed suicide!

"That's true, but isn't this kind of reversal a complete reversal?"

While others were enjoying hotpot and singing, casually taking down Black Crown, she was worried that she might be killed by Black Crown.

Or perhaps it was a narrow victory over Keomi after a fierce battle.

The result! He! He committed suicide?

Wow! Six! What a reversal!?

Although he won, it didn't feel good. He seemed to have been scared off by those things in the sky.

"Because I couldn't win, or rather, they would have preferred me to live, but why did I have to choose suicide as the end?"

[Should I ask him for help?]

Regardless, he probably had his own stubbornness... When he took his own life, for a fleeting moment, I seemed to see a smile, a smile devoid of any emotion.

It's as if...

"free."

[Liberation.]

And his last words...

When everyone is against her, he will support her to go on, supported by the crown-slaying Keomi?

Does he know something?

...

Anyway, the sky is overcast...

Heavy clouds obscured the sky, and thousands of angels gazed at her as wings fluttered.

"It feels like I've committed a heinous crime," Elsie remarked.

The light has been stripped away by the army of angels; the faint glimmer of light shining through the gaps in their wings is perhaps the last vestige of mercy shown to the earth.

A fierce wind, seemingly from nowhere, swept through every street and alley, past every ruin...

The city's survivors crawled out from under the ruins, gazing in awe at the army of angels in the sky. These angels, who appeared in myths, history books, and holy scriptures, were descending upon the world in this way for the first time!

They are far more epic than the bards describe, far more exquisite than the sculptors create!

On the land shrouded in darkness, in the frost-ravaged soil, amidst the intertwining of blood and fire, they descended from heaven carrying the final justice.

The Templar Swordsmen ceased their battle with the assassins, and the city guards slowed their pace; all eyes were fixed on the sky.

The believers in the streets held up holy scriptures and fervently praised the angels' benevolence!

...

In the Oga Forest, the wounded elite assassins have almost fully recovered thanks to the treatment they received from their tribesmen.

The high-ranking assassins looked at Yorgonan, wondering why Elsie hadn't been brought out, and what the next strategy was.

“…” Yagenan looked at the city of Orvik, and the overwhelming holy light made him tremble.

The power behind the Sanctuary might be too immense; Elsie might...

...

"Want some moisturizing?" Elsie asked.

【Now? 】

"Or should I rise from the dead and get some more fluids?"

That would be terrifying, oh! It would be perfect for the show!

[Note the side view.]

"Sneak attack!" Elsie dodged an angel's sneak attack with her sword, the sword energy easily tearing through the opponent's armor, splitting him in two at the waist.

She's so weak, completely lacking the strength of the previous guardian angels; she feels like cannon fodder!

How shameless!

[Hey? What are you looking at? Holy crap! What is that?!]

All that could be seen was a faint tentacle connecting the little angel, who had been instantly killed by Elsie, to his body. As the angel died, the transparent tentacle broke off.

But at the moment of the break, a surge of energy seemed to be sent into the heavens.

Elsie's gaze followed to the sky, where a transparent ball of flesh flashed by. No! It wasn't a ball of flesh, but a creature with a physical form!

At that moment, the sky shattered, and between the opening and closing of the cracks, a colossal angel, a thousand meters tall, appeared in the sky. She had no face, only twelve pairs of wings that shone brilliantly in the sky under golden light.

Twenty-four-winged angel!

"..." Elsie swallowed hard, gazing at the transparent tentacles that clung together between the bodies of the twenty-four-winged angels under the radiance, each seemingly connected to different parts of the world.

Not far away, transparent tentacles were also attached to Andersen's corpse, and she seemed to hear Andersen screaming along with the tentacles, echoing through the sky.

The word "food" exploded in Elsie's mind.

[Holy crap, this is disgusting! They're so densely packed, it's giving me trypophobia! This is even more disgusting than Elsie!]

"Hey! I'm not an adjective!"

The narration went off the rails again, completely wiping out the explosive sensory experience I had painstakingly built up with just one sentence.

So, are you feeling a bit calmer now?

"Um."

[Shall we prepare to moisturize? Oh, it's too late...]

The roads around the square were blocked by a large number of angels, unless Elsie could fly?

No, the sky is their home ground too.

Oh dear, even inserting chicken wings won't save us now.

"That's called being unable to escape even with wings!"

[Same as always! (Sound of reaching into a plastic bag) Want some chicken wings? (Sound of chewing)]

...

Elsie gazed at the twenty-four-winged angel in the sky, a lightsaber seemingly forming in her hand, its tentacles rapidly capturing and gathering the world's light elements.

The tentacles on each angel's body are helping to construct the giant lightsaber.

The lightsaber made Elsie feel no sense of danger, but the more she felt this way, the more nervous she became.

She could clearly see those transparent tentacles that ordinary people couldn't see, but she couldn't see through the intensity of the lightsaber, which meant that its power had far exceeded the range she could predict.

Just as she was preparing to construct defensive magic, she discovered that, without her noticing, chains of light had wrapped around her body!

"Narrator!"

【Huh!? I didn't slack off!】

This is instant cast! Same instant cast mode as yours!

Same?

Elsie stared at the group of angels in the sky, and in a way, she thought of them as a computer made of flesh and blood.

No, they're more like a group of...outsiders?

My chest...it hurts so much...

Elsie's eyes opened and closed, and gradually she couldn't even breathe. A strong feeling of suffocation made her despair.

Outsiders... Twenty-four-winged angels... These things possess power different from that of the native world.

So, is there any connection between them?

...

Elsie was in a silent, black abyss, as if countless eyes were staring at her.

When she opened her eyes, countless planets twinkled on the vast earth; looking down again, the blood-red soil seemed to tell a story…
