Ending Maker Chapter 351: Archbishop Manuela (2)

Chapter 351: Archbishop Manuela (2)

“To sum it up, we’ll defeat the enemy one by one.”

The day before the raid on the imperial capital.

Cordelia pursed her lips instead of nodding right away at the words spoken by Jude lying next to her.

She understood what he was talking about.

She also remembered the specs of the enemies in the Legend of Heroes series.

Thus, she knew that the words of Jude were not impossible to do, and not just being optimistic.

But she still felt anxious.

They would pit those who have an advantage over the enemy.

They would utilize strategies.

It was the norm in games and something she had done countless times, but she kept thinking about scary things.

If they could not defeat the enemies one by one.

If their plan went wrong.

If the strength of the leaders and the archbishop was greater than their counterparts in the Legend of Heroes series.

Cordelia was always bright and cheerful.

She was always the confident one, saying that she could do it.

But she could not help but show her weakness this time.

Because she was in front of Jude, so she could express her honest thoughts instead of pretending to be strong.

“I’m scared.”

I’m afraid.

I’m scared that we’ll lose.

I’m scared that tomorrow will be the last day.

It was a life-threatening fight.

Moreover, the fate of the world was at stake.

Like Jude, Cordelia remembered her past life.

But hers was not a complete memory.

She did not feel that something was out of place regarding the time she lived as Hong Yoo Hee.

Her past and present lives were connected as if it were one life.

Cordelia herself was Hong Yoo Hee, and Hong Yoo Hee was Cordelia.

Because the two were the same person in the first place, she was not confused about her identity.

But her previous life was different.

She was aware of it, but it was like reading someone else’s story through a book.

Although they shared feelings, there was an inevitable gap.

Therefore, Cordelia Chase who was only 18 years old was here now.

Hong Yoo Hee was nineteen and had just graduated from high school. She was about to enter college and still could not drink as much as she wanted.

It would be nice if tomorrow didn’t come.

I don’t want to fight for the fate of the world.

I just want to live a peaceful life.

“I’m scared.”

Cordelia’s voice trembled.

Jude caressed the cheek of Cordelia. As she shook in fear, he hugged her and awkwardly smiled.

After thinking for a long time on what to say, he finally opened his mouth.

“To be honest, I’m scared too.”

Because I have faced destruction several times.

Because I have never won.

I would be lying if I say that I am not afraid.

I do not want to lose Cordelia.

I want to continue this precious days.

I want to live the unknown tomorrow that existed beyond the milestones of history.

“So I have to fight. As Alexei had said…. You’ll just die if you stay still. Even if you’re scared or frightened, you have to move first. Nothing will happen if you do nothing. You have to move. Miracles do not happen, they are achieved.”

Jude unusually stuttered as he continued to talk, and had a bitter smile at the end. He faced Cordelia whom he had been tightly hugging in his arms and she looked up at him.

“Let’s fight together. It’s scary and frightening, but let’s fight and win like always. Let’s finish it nicely and get married nicely. Let’s live happily doing all the things we have not done before.”

Cordelia blinked her eyes at Jude’s words.

And soon burst into laughter.

“Co-Cordelia?”

As Jude was flustered in confusion, Cordelia laughed even louder. She said as he buried her face in Jude’s chest.

“It doesn’t suit you.”

“What?”

“I mean, those words. Aren’t you more of a realist?”

Rather than talking about dreams, wishes, and the future, he was someone who would enumerate the enemy’s specs and tell her what to do so that they could win. So that she would not be afraid.

Because that was very much like Jude.

“No, I like this one too…”

Because she also liked this present Jude.

Because Cordelia very much liked this side of Jude too.

As Cordelia giggled, Jude blushed and made up excuses.

“Uh… Cordelia. You do know that I… have a glib tongue, right?”

“Pfft!”

Cordelia burst out laughing again.

Aren’t you using your glib tongue now?

Aren’t you a one-of-a-kind scammer in this world?

Cordelia continued to laugh and Jude had a complicated and indescribable expression, but soon laughed like her.

After all, he liked it when Cordelia laughed.

“Cordelia.”

“Yes, Jude.”

“Let’s win.”

“Yes, let’s win. Let’s win and live happily like in fairy tale books. We’ll live happily ever after, right?”

At Cordelia’s words, Jude nodded again and looked around.

He whispered into Cordelia’s ear.

“If we come back alive…”

I’ll say my wish that has been delayed for some time.

We must definitely come back alive so that I can have my wish.

“What will you wish for?”

Jude smiled at her words and whispered again, making Cordelia blush. She said as she tapped Jude’s chest.

“Pervert.”

“No, why are you saying something that can be misunderstood? When did I make such a strange wish?”

“Anyway, you’re a pervert. Pervert. Jude is a pervert.”

Cordelia snorted and pinched Jude’s cheek.

After a while, she opened her mouth again.

“Jude.”

“Yes, Cordelia.”

“Let’s win.”

The fight tomorrow.

Jude nodded. He hugged Cordelia again.

“UOOOOOOOO!”

Cordelia looked forward.

She remembered their resolution yesterday and took out her trump card that she had been hiding for a long time.

“Power of Darkness!”

Cordelia’s white wings turned jet black.

It was the powers she inherited from the witch.

The so-called Power of Darkness used the emotions of darkness and division prevalent in the world.

‘Frankly, I thought I wouldn’t be able to use it at all.’

She had been preparing it for a long time, but had yet to complete it.

When she finally completed it, the final battle was just around the corner.

‘But it’s a relief.’

I can use it in the final battle.

I will die full of regrets if I never used it!

“Hit them! Hit them! Just hit them!”

Like a storm!

Black Sun Blizzard!

Black was added to the golden storm.

The power of darkness naturally broke the defenses of the demonic humans, and the divinity of the sun directly affected the bodies and souls of those exposed in its way.

“KEUAAAAAAAH!”

The demons began to melt like snow.

It was impossible to properly resist it.

“I’m not a fallen angel!”

She was not an angel who fell into darkness, but an angel who used the power of darkness.

It seemed to be similar, but there was a huge difference between the two.

She combined the power of darkness and the power of the sun.

Enabling her to wipe out demons more effectively!

“Manuela!”

Cordelia shouted and stared at the heavenly throne.

She walked forward and looked at Archbishop Manuela who was sitting with his head bowed. She advanced with the storm.

“Sky Shattering Black Dragon!”

Black dragons broke through space and attacked Yekaterina.

Bewildered that her seduction did not work, Yekaterina hurriedly opened a magic barrier to stop the Sky Shattering Black Dragon, but that was her limit.

By opening the eighth door, Jude had already surpassed the leaders of the demon follower groups with his abilities alone.

Thus, Yekaterina’s strongest weapon, her seduction, did not work, so she never had a chance of winning from the very beginning.

“Heart of the Sun!”

Jude’s fist struck the side of Yekaterina who managed to block the Sky Shattering Black Dragon.

Just his strength alone was enough to break the bones and muscles of Yekaterina who had already used demonization, but there was something more added to it.

Heart of the Sun penetrated the opponent’s defense.

The power of the Black Sun caused a huge explosion inside Yekaterina’s body.

“KAAAK!”

Yekaterina coughed blood after being hit by Jude’s fist and sent flying.

She rolled around the floor without even having the time to spread her giant bat wings behind her back.

And Jude kicked the ground again.

He endured the seduction of Yekaterina by being under a powerful seduction magic (Cordelia), but honestly could not hold on for long.

Yekaterina was not the leader of the Devil’s Mouth for no reason.

As the incarnation of Lilith, the overlord of love and hatred, her temptation was absolute, so there was no way to get out of it once caught.

So he had to defeat her before that.

Before she seduced the others who were not resistant to her temptation, and before the wall that Jude himself built collapsed.

Jude switched from his fist to his sword-like hand.

He mercilessly pushed back Yekaterina who had barely managed to get up.

’30 seconds to go.’

Yekaterina gave up on her seduction magic and used her mana to strengthen her body, beginning to fight against Jude’s offensive with difficulty.

So Jude began to use the sword with the inner essence.

It was rare for Yekaterina to fight in close combat because of her absolute power of seduction. She transformed into a succubus queen and her physical abilities were greatly increased, but it was impossible for her who was inexperienced in close combat to block the attack of those who had reached the horizon.

The attacks continued.

He easily penetrated Yekaterina’s defense and landed effective hits on her vital points.

‘20 seconds to go.’

He had to defeat Yekaterina and help the others.

According to Jude’s own calculations, the fight between Kamael and great demon Forte was evenly-matched.

Lena would somehow be pushed back by Tanesia, the leader of the Devil’s Eye. She could only buy time by fighting in the defensive.

‘It’s highly likely that the archbishop can’t move because of the ritual.’

And in fact, that was what was happening.

Cordelia was fighting against numerous demons but not Archbishop Manuela.

So he had to hurry up.

He had to defeat Yekaterina as quickly as possible and help Cordelia.

As for another person.

A man who always delivered results that transcended calculations, and was the trump card of Jude’s plan.

“You are weak.”

At Landius’ declaration, the leader of the Devil’s Hand, Kaira, clenched her teeth.

Although she was less emotionally agitated, she could not help but shake in front of the monster.

How the hell can someone like him exist?

She knew that the red-haired warrior, Iron Man Landius, was a powerful being.

But he exceeded her expectations.

She could not even imagine that he would be so strong.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It was useless to throw a rock the size of a house.

Everything was destroyed by his fist that he lightly swung.

“EUAAAAAAAAAH!”

It was meaningless to apply external force with telekinesis.

It was also completely impossible to harm that steel-like body.

So she tried to do it from the inside.

But that was also unachievable.

The inexhaustible power of the sun fully neutralized the telekinesis of Kaira. She tried to use the power of curses as well, but that was out of the question too.

Landius was the sun.

In front of his powerful soul, the power of the dark curse melted away at once.

He was literally a monster.

So it was only natural that Archbishop Manuela was so wary of him.

“AAAAAH!”

But she could not back off.

Kaira opened her eyes that had always been closed.

She did her best by opening the eyes she received from Asmodeus, the overlord of lust. Six horns sprouted from her head and generated tremendous magical power.

If she could not destroy his body.

If it was impossible to destroy from the inside, and even impossible to attack him using objects.

She would push him.

She would lift him up with telekinesis and throw him away!

She was correct.

But Landius had anticipated such an option too.

He watched Kaira’s telekinesis rush in like a storm and tightened the grip on his hand.

As if dispersing the storm, he swung the Solar Blade which he had tightly gripped.

Swoooooosh-!

The sword of the sun cut through everything in the place.

Or rather, everything was crushed with its force like that of a raging wave.

Her telekinesis disappeared.

It was not cut.

It simply faded in front of the immense power created by the Solar Blade.

He used his full power.

Landius spared no strength.

He did his best the moment he needed it, and Kaira could not receive Landius’ power.

“Cough!”

Kaira flew almost a dozen meters or more, crashing into a wall and coughing blood.

And in front of her was Landius.

Right after he swung the Solar Blade, he kicked the ground to follow the thrown Kaira and instantly arrived in front of her.

It was a fist this time.

His best punch.

A skill of the Supreme Sun Divine Art.

With his extreme Yang energy.

His fist touched her.

The sun broke Kaira’s body.

It toppled the entire wall her back was touching, and the ground also caved in.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

There was a chain of destruction.

There were shock waves that reached dozens of meters.

The lower part of Kaira’s chest where Landius’ fist touched was completely destroyed.

Kaira fell and no longer moved, and Landius caught his breath.

Landius could tell.

Jude was pushing Yekaterina.

She was on the verge of being defeated.

The battle between Kamael and Forte was intensifying.

Asmodeus was the number one swordswoman in Hell, and Forte, one of her seven swords, was on the verge of reaching the horizon.

So it was too much for Kamael to overpower him at once.

Lena was struggling.

But she was originally good at defending, so she did not lose her stability.

Rather, the disappearance of Kaira made Tanesia nervous.

So Landius turned his head.

Cordelia was creating a storm of light and blowing up things in all directions.

She was the core of Jude’s plan.

The battlefield was divided because of the explosions she was causing.

The enemies could not fight together, so their operation to fight one-to-one had become possible.

Cordelia was pushing the demons.

But she was getting tired after using too much mana in a short time.

Landius calmed his breath.

He did not wait any longer.

The moment Jude beheaded Yekaterina, he kicked the ground.

“Manuela.”

The puppet of evil that caused the destruction of the Paragon Kingdom.

Landius ran towards him sitting on the heavenly throne.
