2nd Rank Has Returned

214 – Linked Chains-4

Ameri and the Outer Team were completely confused.

The appearance of berserkers is already shocking enough, but the familiars, golems, and magic tools that deliver internal information are all dead.

The only information that can be confirmed is a few comrades who run out of the room with hideous screams and insanity due to madness.

The fact that plans and strategies have already been twisted can be seen even from the outside.

“How…!”

Everyone is in a state of confusion, and not only Ameri, but also other hard-nosed characters have lost their judgment.

I can’t believe that most of the monsters, demons, and warlocks have been attacked, but in front of a single enemy, the heroes are now being swept away like fallen leaves in front of the wind.

All warriors, saints, and mage masters.

“We need to apply and rescue right now!! I’ve already been beaten more than half!!”

A wizard hurriedly raised his voice. Right there, his classmates and comrades who had learned magic with him were screaming and dying.

I could understand the feeling of wanting to save it.

Besides, it wasn’t just sentimental theory without any grounds.

The 2nd Army, who is currently waiting outside, is also an emergency measure in preparation for such a situation.

“…Wait! Review the information…!”

“Agent Black Tower Master!! Is it time to get scared!?”

Even if she has the authority to act as the Black Tower Master, Ameri is a rookie who has never properly stood on the battlefield.

No matter how cool and smart your judgment may have been, in the eyes of others, it was nothing more than a timid delay.

“…But…!”

“Every second is urgent! However…!”

“That’s why you shouldn’t go in.”

Until he showed up.

“If you go in anyway, you guys will either go crazy or end up preparing lunch boxes.”

It was a foreign language, but it was a familiar voice.

He wore a black mask, and even his hair was white, but everyone in the room couldn’t help but know who he was.

“…Leonardo… I remember…”

It was Leonardo…

“It’s Reynolds.”

…But in many ways, there was a big problem.

Thanks to the existence of the sage and demi-human, there was no problem entering.

***

Eileen felt her mind go blank in a different way than during the berserker.

Even though it was a fortunate moment when the war situation, which was clearly leaning towards defeat, was barely able to balance.

The chaos doesn’t stop when you see the savior who created this reversal.

“…Raynald Graves…? What is that…”

That person is Leonardo no matter where you look.

It is clear that Leonardo, who lost his memory and went into infantile regression, will be waiting in the Reinhardt mansion while asleep.

As witnesses, even Ain and the Sage are standing next to each other with their gaze turned.

Nevertheless, the man denied that he was ‘Leonardo’ and used the unheard-of name ‘Raynald Grave’.

“Stay in your mouth. Eileen. Before tearing off the agal head of this stupid operation.”

In addition, he even shot at himself with unfiltered hostility in a vulgar tone. For a moment, I even thought that this person might not be Leonardo.

[…First, calm down…]

“Shut up.”

With a low voice lower than the second playthrough, Leo fired at him like that. He couldn’t refute even the sage, and he couldn’t even utter a word.

Actually, I was holding back my anger just by coming to help.

“…Sorry. Ah… Leo… Mr. Reynald…”

Ain, who belongs to the dull side of emotions, had no choice but to apologize over and over again without making eye contact.

Even though I didn’t decide on this myself, I implicitly agreed with my will.

“… Ha…”

Seeing Ain’s expression like that, Leonardo’s throat boiled over and he deeply suppressed the shady beard.

I didn’t have much time anyway.

That berserker will come to his senses soon.

“…Sir Reynald…”

Ariaspil escaped from the berserker’s giant and ran towards Leonardo.

Perhaps it was because he used too much of his blood, his skin was pale enough to look grayish white, and he seemed to walk despite his speed.

“…Variety. Everyone.”

Those who knew Leonardo’s return had nothing to say even if he had ten mouths.

I would have made some excuses if I had rather won, but if Leo hadn’t come now, Ariasviel would surely have been annihilated with the berserker.

“…Leo…Nardo…! At las…!!”

The berserker glared at Leo even when he was severely injured right before his heart and chest melted. That hideous madman’s mask is not forgotten even in death.

“…Did you get skin care from the demon king…”

Looking at those black scales, I could understand why everyone here had a hard time.

The best combination, as if giving Rios rain clouds that send an endless rainy season.

“…What the hell are you talking about!? You’re really older than that…”

From noble mtl dot com.

Orb’s words are cut as they are.

“These are dragon scales.”

Leo gave the answer he needed instead of the answer he wanted to hear.

It was an unexpected answer, but I felt that all the answers were correct.

If those scales are really the same as those of the dragons that existed in ancient times, then I was convinced that magic, divine, and other physical attacks hadn’t worked so far.

“The scales push away mana like a raincoat, and even if you go with a physical attack, the one you hit will hurt more… Oh, the answer is no more.”

I can’t use the method of defeating a berserker myself.

You wouldn’t be able to use the method of continuously blowing long hits to break and mix up all of your stomach and internal organs.

Accordingly, the method of putting various drugs into the body does not work. Judging from the form of regeneration, hemolysis should already flow in the blood of that berserker.

[…You know how.]

“Yes. There is a way.”

Those who saw the wise man could understand Leonardo at least, but the people outside seemed to be talking to themselves like crazy.

“…More than that, who the hell are you…!”

“Hey, those bastards who are 10 steps away from me take the wounded and the mentally ill outside.”

Those who are within 10 steps are those who have a deep connection with Leonardo, whether in the 1st or 2nd playthrough.

Or they were able to control their minds and bodies at the minimum level.

Others waved their hands as if they were getting in the way, beckoning them to leave.

“What nonsense are you talking about all of a sudden?! The fight is still…!”

The soldiers who are holding out now are participating in battle with a sense of revenge for their comrades and a sense of responsibility appropriate to their position.

Leonardo gave the order regardless of such feelings.

“More than that, you…!!”

“Get out.”

Eileen and Marken put their voices on orders without context.

If you lose anyway, everyone will be eaten and die. In that case, it was reasonable to save at least one life to be eaten.

“…I understand…!”

Soldiers receiving emotionally dissuaded orders began evacuating and retreating.

Eileen was respected as a great mage of Leo and his peers, and Marken was a veteran with strong bones as the leader of the Enforcement Knights.

Now, I trusted rather than the words of people who were uncertain whether he was Leonardo.

“…Now can you… Tell me how?”

Marken questioned Leo in the most polite way, with the courtesy he wouldn’t use even for an emperor. Seeing such an attitude, even though Leo covered his face with a mask, his malice and murderous intentions were clearly revealed.

“…I want to brief the operation right now…!”

The ground trembles.

I don’t want to imagine the cause of an earthquake that can be seen as an earthquake, but I encounter it as a reality beyond imagination.

“Leonardooooo!!!”

The berserker rushes in. Even though he still has huge wounds on his back, he throws himself at the person who killed him.

[Seonghyeoljeol – Eohyeolgeom]

The greatsword panels that used to form a protective barrier glow brightly and fly away to the berserker.

“… I guess I won’t be able to talk for a long time. How much did you eat?”

Leonardo’s swordsmanship has definitely reached the level of a master, but the berserker’s uppers couldn’t get a single scratch.

Perhaps thanks to the berserker’s unique ability, he was in a harder state than when he used the scales, and he couldn’t expect to dig more than 1cm even if he swung his weapon with all his strength.

“I don’t have time, so listen to this old man. Because that bastard is going after me.”

[Are you sure your plan and mine will be exactly the same?]

“You noticed the boat bursting from the inside.”

[…Then let me explain.]

As long as the Philosopher’s Stone was connected to their hearts, the two could understand each other’s thoughts.

It’s probably not a connection between the egos, but the level will be similar in terms of knowledge and power.

“Then let’s go.”

“Wait a minute! Who the hell are you talking about…!”

Not only the Orb, but the rest of the paladins, the imperial family, and the temple staff looked into the void without knowing why.

Now, the only person who fits the expression of an old man is Ain, but Ain has been sticking to silence since earlier.

[Me.]

At that moment, the sage materialized. There was nothing to cover now.

“…U…! Ghost…?!”

The second prince was shocked.

[I’m getting hit by a ghost, so I’ll explain first…]

“But how is it fixed to the horizontal coordinate system…!”

As soon as he saw the people’s eyes, the second prince realized that he hadn’t noticed.

The operation was explained and started.

***

Although the berserker’s melee was massive and heavy, it was agile enough that the wind pressure rang. Perhaps, if Leo hadn’t mobilized all the equipment he had for his divine power, he would have been crushed by the blow.

“…Leonardo…!!”

“So it’s Reynolds. I changed my name.”

There was no hesitation in the berserker’s fist even though he was Leo, who would become the devil’s vessel. The dragon’s scales embodied in his hands reveal the will to destroy Leo as the strongest gauntlet.

‘…I hate to admit it, but if I don’t know how, I’ll die.’

Even without equipment, he made the top predator wear the most precious armor and weapons. If he fought alone like before, he would surely die.

“The hero will eat in front of you…!! I keep screaming at you…!”

“That sucks. You bastard bastard.”

Leonardo laughed at the monster so loudly that the corners of his mouth were visible even behind the mask.

The words that a lump that easily builds up power with someone else’s words are detestable.

The madness of the monster who tried to kill his rival and the woman fills him with rage.

Above all.

“That’s mine. It’s my prey, so I’ll only eat it. An insectivore who doesn’t even know the subject.”

Ariaspil was mine. Do you want to become the blood and flesh of such a monster?

Even if I die, I will kill with my own hands. If you kill that bastard, I will.

“I get a stomach ache just from eating my arm.”

At that one word, the berserker’s expression contorted to the limit. Berserker strikes his fist at Leo on the ground.

Already the panels are broken and crushed from fighting that monster. The root of the problem was that the magic interlocking device was forcibly connected.

All that was left was Leonardo’s own equipment and abilities.

“Oohhhhh…!!”

Leonardo swings his blasting ax toward the ground. The impact of the explosion pushed Leo back, raising dust.

Cooooo!!

The ground splits apart from the berserker’s fist, and the dust forms the shape of a storm. The vision was obscured, but to the berserker, it was just a pitiful remnant.

“…Can I only use my leftovers!?”

The check attacks flying in all directions through the smoke screen are just tickling inside the scales. A smoke screen can be blown away only by wind pressure.

“That’s it…!!”

Leonardo’s location was determined by smell alone. As soon as it is sensed, the monster of madness rushes towards Leonardo with a burst sound.

“Why don’t you wear some clothes instead?”

Leonardo knows too. The fact that the tracking ability of a berserker is equivalent to that of a shark on land.

The sound of chains echoes from the ground, and a net of black stones rises.

“…….!!”

The whole body of a berserker was wrapped around it, and it sounded like a chain, but this black bondage was completely integrated.

“…Don’t worry. It’s a free size that won’t tear even if you apply force.”

In the form of a chain, it gradually wraps around itself like a snake. The area of its body has shrunk due to Arya’s onslaught, and it is not easy to break it as this black stone can be freely transformed.

“…This…This… Bastard…!”

“No matter how strong the armor is, there is no business in joint skills.”

The divinity and aura that enter before long are tightened from various angles to twist the whole body.

The berserker who saw the trap…

“You are weak! Leonardo ooh!”

He showed a flash of light. The peace-stricken and mentally complacent is clearly visible.

Judging by the smell, it was clear that someone was approaching and it was a female who had blown out one of her eyes.

“…Chris…!”

“Ha… Instead of that hero…!”

Then the berserker’s neck snapped backwards and Chris came into view from behind. It’s not like using both hands to slash the sword from above to help.

“…Leo…!”

When Chris’s eyes met,

“I told you not to come this way!! You f*cking b*tch!!”

Wooddeuk…

With the exception of the head, the whole body was devoured with the sword. Leonardo’s pupils trembled, and a disgusting energy lingered around his mouth.

“…Really tasty… That expression…”

The sound of swallowing loudly resounds.

I don’t appreciate the taste because I’m at a disadvantage if I hold on to it for a long time.

As it is, the body enlarges again, the black stones increase, and the arms and legs are stretched in the free space created in a short time.

The sound of chains and cloth being torn resounded, and the black stone’s restraints ceased.

In that situation, Leonardo thought with his head down.

‘As planned.’

It fits well from the first button.

The Alter Blade must now be completely inside that piglet’s belly.

Now you just have to hold out until it replicates in the camouflage.

Chris’s head, which had been rolling on Leo’s side, slowly dissipated.

Because it’s an alter ego anyway.
