Doppelganger (3)

“······.”

“······.”

Ray and his group, who encountered the doppelganger Pastor Kim, were unable to move quickly.

“Tsk.”

“······!”

The group overreacts to Pastor Kim’s every action. It was worth it.

The infinitely dangerous energy felt from the doppelganger.

The aura and intimidation seen as a corpse is dragged around. Would you say it is the force of an overwhelming force?

If you screw up, you die.

That sense of crisis raised their vigilance to the extreme.

“Whoa~”

Pastor Kim inhales a cigarette and then exhales smoke.

Ray knows what that cigarette is.

‘A psychic stimulant using the blood of Lee Ma-mangyang…’

It is a stimulant that allows you to exert powers beyond that of an ordinary human, albeit temporarily.

There is a downside to having to perform a purification ritual periodically, but there is no other necessity to deal with monsters.

Pastor Kim is smoking a cigarette and looking sideways at Ray and his group.

He clicked his tongue and immediately aimed the shotgun without any preparation.

“damage!”

The group moves reflexively at the same time as Ray shouts.

bang!

12 gauge bullets raining down at the same time.

Only Ophelia did not choose to dodge and raised her shield to block it.

Papapak!

The bullet was blocked by Ophelia’s shield.

‘Is it worth stopping?’

It’s not a close range shot, but a mid-range shot. Additionally, it is a silver bullet that has been consecrated for use against monsters.

The penetrating power of silver bullets is bound to be lower than that of ordinary armor-piercing bullets.

“I’ll handle it!”

“Miss Ophelia, wait!”

Ophelia believed in the protective power of the shield. And he believed in the ‘armor of Saint Germanicus’ he wore.

Relics were shared out of fear that if one person received them, doppelgängers might duplicate them.

Among them, the armor of Saint Germanicus is itself one of the largest protective gears of the church.

It was natural to trust that defense.

Slam!

Pastor Kim reloaded his shotgun. That’s why everyone misjudged.

That weapon is a single-shot weapon. The structure is to reload after firing one shot.

However, Ray did not misjudge. I couldn’t make a mistake.

‘Fire one shot from a two-shot shotgun and reload? ‘You’re trying to change the bullet!’

12 gauge shell casings ricocheting from a shotgun. The remaining cartridges are removed and the new bullet is a slug bullet.

A high-yield bullet that emphasizes anti-personnel stopping power and is filled with a single lead bullet instead of dozens of pellets.

Loading and firing were fast. Just before Ofelia hit the target with incredible speed, the gun was already pointed at Ofelia.

“Let’s try to stop it at least once!”

Ofelia charged, trusting the shield’s defensive power. However, the slug bullet that Pastor Kim favors is a completely different product.

“Don’t block, avoid!!”

“······!”

It’s already late. The slug bullet fired from the muzzle penetrated Ophelia’s shield and struck her chest.

“Knock!?”

Ophelia let out a breath from the shock beyond her imagination, having never thought that the shield would be pierced.

If it were not for the Holy Gauntlets of St. Germanicus, he would have died of shock alone.

‘shit! ‘Did they even implement real bullets?’

The slug bullet that Pastor Kim fired at Ophelia is a high-penetrating pure silver bullet filled with gunpowder that melted the silver candlestick of the cathedral and completed the blessing ceremony.

If you hit it right, it’s a monster bullet that can kill a werewolf on a full moon night with one hit.

Just looking at the simple kinetic energy, it is several times the weight of an ordinary rifle bullet and has a destructive power that exceeds that of a 50-caliber bullet. There is no monster that gets hit by that and is fine.

“Get back!”

Fortunately, Ophelia had the holy armor of St. Germanicus.

It survived thanks to its powerful defense that withstood the devil’s attacks.

However, just because defense is high does not mean that internal shock is reduced to zero.

After being hit by a monster pure silver bullet that could kill even a werewolf, Ophelia was temporarily unable to breathe.

“Tch…! What kind of weapon!”

Although shocked by the power of the slug bullet, Aaron and Henry rushed towards Pastor Kim.

Get close so you can’t use that pesky long-range weapon.

“Ajabye!”

The first to reach Pastor Kim was Henry. A flying kick with momentum. But the trajectory was too simple.

“Huh?!”

Pastor Kim grabs Henry’s ankle as he flies and throws him away.

Aaron aimed for that opportunity and stabbed with his sword, but Pastor Kim had already figured out the trajectory.

The deadly sword flashes, deflecting the longsword’s trajectory by centimeters, and the shotgun is thrust into Aaron’s defenseless stomach.

“······!”

Die. Aaron, who sensed that his life was in danger, froze.

“What are you scared of!”

Halberd slashing. Pastor Kim avoids the halberd’s downward strike by bending his back like a seasoned martial artist.

“You’re quick!”

Jenny’s ax swing increases with centrifugal force. As it was a long weapon, its range was wide and threatening.

However, the gun’s range of motion is shorter and it is much more threatening. Pastor Kim pulled the trigger of the shotgun on his waist like a fast draw of a revolver.

bang!

The slug bullet that penetrated Ophelia’s shield hit Jenny’s halberd accurately.

Boom!

A split halberd. Broken pieces grazed Jenny’s cheek, but that was all.

“Ugh…!”

However, Jenny shrinks when the weapon is destroyed before her eyes. The fist that penetrates that gap gets stuck in the solar plexus.

“Oops!”

“jenny!”

Aaron rushed in. Aaron realized that Pastor Kim was a formidable opponent and swung his sword coolly and accurately.

‘There are many of us. ‘Don’t overdo it and apply pressure slowly!’

Aaron’s swordsmanship was learned directly from his mother, who was a holy priest.

Orthodox Holy Knight swordsmanship and superhuman swordsmanship premised on the protection of the sun.

Aaron, who faced Pastor Kim in a sword fighting match, felt something was strange.

‘I don’t have as much strength as I thought. ‘We are strictly avoiding head-on confrontation.’

I thought I could become a sword expert, but the specs are lower than I thought. So, are those strange armed forces its greatest strength?

‘no! If you let your guard down even a little, you’ll get hit! ‘Skilled!’

The Sainchamsageom is an evil sword that can defeat monsters and command demons. It is only when it collides with Aaron’s Holy Sword, which is assumed to be a battle between men and women, that the blade is damaged.

When Aaron, who realized this, swung his sword with the intention of breaking it, Pastor Kim grazed Aaron’s sword as if he had been waiting.

“oh···!”

Inadvertently, the trajectory loaded with force swings to the bottom, creating a large loophole. Pastor Kim held the sword upside down and struck Aaron’s stomach once with the handle, then lifted his chin.

“Ugh…!”

Aaron’s eyes widened as he was hit hard on the chin.

Aaron loses consciousness for a moment due to the shock transmitted to his brain and falls to his knees.

Sigh!

Pastor Kim grabbed Aaron by the hair and struck him in the face with a knee kick, knocking him down.

“Thank you, for buying me time.”

“······!”

At that time, pages of the Bible rushed around Pastor Kim.

“I will not rely on chariots of iron, but I will call on the name of Solterra, our Savior, and rely on Him.”

The pages of the Eclipse Bible that filled the air stuck to Pastor Kim. When Pastor Kim was blocked, Ray immediately called Henry.

“Henry! Screw you!”

“Yes, brother!”

Henry, who had been thrown far away by Pastor Kim, ran at full speed.

The function that Ray performed with the Eclipse Bible was Bonmada.

However, Pastor Kim is far from being an evil being. We will soon destroy that Bongma’s camp.

“Duh!”

Henry accelerated and swung his fist with more weight at Pastor Kim.

Henry also has the power to receive the sun’s protection. Those fists are equivalent to those of any knight.

Wow!

It went in properly.

Pastor Kim, who was blocked by the Bible, was struck by Henry’s iron fist without any time to resist.

“It went in properly!”

There are few people who can properly withstand this iron fist. The moment Henry cried out in joy, Pastor Kim’s fierce gaze stared at the boy.

“Uh, uh…”

It’s sealed now, right? When Henry hesitated under the pressure, Pastor Kim’s neck tilted back.

Goong!

Just headbutt it. Henry, who was so shocked, stumbled and fell, so he shouted! And the kick knocks the boy down.

Even when he was restrained, Pastor Kim’s lips moved as he overpowered Henry.

“No ghost nights, no night stays for Honma.”

Pastor Kim reciting strange fish. Ray realized the meaning and reacted urgently.

“I knew that one would come out…!”

But it was already too late.

Even the Eclipse Bible that blocked Pastor Kim couldn’t stop his mouth.

“Yeong-gwi-yeong-eong-yobulsan-gwi-ma-ban-yo-mu-hae.”

Salary benefit rate ordinance.

As soon as it was over, the bodies of the ‘old man’ and ‘female’ wizard were shaking.

A soul trapped in a corpse that can only be seen with the spiritual eye.

The reason why the dark red soul struggles to leave the body is because of the amulet attached to the body.

‘Seobhonsul! No, you are implementing that too? ‘Are you a doppelganger?’

It is a type of spirit magic that has been passed down since the Ming Dynasty, in which an amulet made from the blood of the dead is used to trap the soul and use it as a magical material.

Because its profound logic requires knowledge of magic, equipment and procedures to cast a ghost, it is too high-level for a doppelganger to imitate.

But the doppelganger, Pastor Kim, did it. Very proudly.

“W-what happened?”

Henry was horrified to see the body shaking, but soon the body stopped struggling.

The evil spirit, who could only escape from the body through incantations, became Pastor Kim’s familiar.

Kyaaa!

Demons writhing in pain circled around Pastor Kim, shedding bloody tears.

Despite the cries of their painful souls, Pastor Kim gave the order without any hesitation.

“One guy. Get hit instead.”

The demon struggles. He tried to resist with a painful scream as if he didn’t want to carry out the command, but it only lasted for a moment.

However, there was no way for the demon, who had already become a familiar spirit, to resist. Among the demons, the soul of an old man charged towards the pages of the Bible that had blocked Pastor Kim.

Kyaaa!

Soon after, Bongma’s page captured the evil spirit. It is originally a page of the Bible that seals demons. If there was an evil devil, that was dealt with first.

“Useup…!”

Reverend Kim, who had relieved Ray of the demon by sacrificing a demon, rushed to him.

“Ray! Behind me!”

Ophelia appears to have recovered from the damage and raises her sword to block the way forward.

After all, he is a sword expert as he can already recover from the damage from the slug bullet.

“Benefit rate ordinance.”

However, one remaining evil spirit attacks Ophelia. Ray felt defeated.

Only those with special eyes or natural inspiration can see the soul.

Even more special talent is required to physically intervene with the soul.

Pastor Kim’s method of dealing with the devil is difficult to counter unless it is emanation or spiritual beings!

“What is this fly!”

The Auror blade wielded by Ophelia cut down the evil spirit. It was a sword swung with accurate knowledge.

Kyaaa!

The devil screams and scatters. In response, Pastor Kim recited a mantra and brought back the form of the evil spirit.

Unless Pastor Kim, a free-spirited person, allows it, evil spirits cannot be easily extinguished.

But what was even more surprising was that Ophelia accurately recognized the evil spirit, swung her sword, and even inflicted a blow.

Pastor Kim was not embarrassed and swung the deadly sword at Ophelia. Her Auror Blade blocked this, but Pastor Kim had an amulet in one hand.

The moment he tried to attach it to Ofelia, it was Ray who caught it.

“ray?”

Kuuk! Ray grabs Pastor Kim’s arm. Pastor Kim grinned.

“Do you know what it is?”

A creepy smile. The next moment, the demon rushed towards Ray, and Ray swung the hatchet at him and chased it away.

“ray!”

“You must never touch that sword or amulet!”

As soon as he could speak, Pastor Kim took something out of his chest. It was a terribly shocking thing for Ray to see.

‘The Holy Grenade of Antioch!’

Is that even possible to replicate? crazy!

A rolling holy grenade. After confirming that it was heading towards the fallen Aaron, Ray rushed towards him in a huff.

“aaah! You crazy b*stard!!”

Ray hurriedly threw himself, grabbed the grenade, and threw it away. I crouched in preparation for the explosion, but even after a few seconds, I could not hear the grenade explosion.

“fake?!”

Then, the person I was targeting from the beginning was not Aaron, but Ophelia. At that moment, when I urgently turned my gaze, I caught the sight of the fatal sword passing by Ophelia.

Sigh!

“Ophelia!”

Ophelia’s neck tilted back and she hurriedly backed away.

Something flutters and falls around Ophelia, who is clutching one eye.

It was an eye patch.

“Ugh… Don’t look.”

Ophelia reached for her eye patch and hastily covered her inadvertently exposed eyes. And Ray also saw Ophelia’s exposed eyes.

Unlike the eyes that sparkle like amethyst, the pupils are dull and dark green. Eyes that remind me of the gaze of a certain archdemon.

Pastor Kim smiled.

“You knew, right?”

This b*stard.

Isn’t it a doppelganger?
