Game of Divine Thrones

Chapter 119: Fallen Kingdom 5

As Silvator obeyed Woohyuk, the other monsters immediately surrendered.

Because of their instinctive habits, they were following the orders of their direct supervisor.

After getting the monster army in hand, Woohyuk headed towards the capital, Tenas.

There weren't many who blocked him on his way.

Rather, the lords who didn’t cooperate with Prince Ramirez let them pass without even thinking about confronting them from the beginning.

They even gave him supplies, begging him to chase the demons out of this kingdom.

Thanks to this, Woohyuk's army was able to reach the destination without any loss of troops.

“Lord, I can see the wall in the distance.”

Leifina, who was riding alongside Woohyuk, raised her finger towards the horizon.

Capital Tenas.

It was no different from any other capital city in other small kingdoms.

A high wall protected the city, and a castle, the White Keep, was at the heart of the city.

The peculiar aspect of this city was the magically engineered weapons for defense that were placed on the wall.

‘We can see Jake’s handiwork here and there.’

Jake, the genius magic engineer.

He had a deep history with the Dane Kingdom.

It was because King Gerard II, who was king at the time, was very interested in introducing magic engineering technology.

The weapons on the walls were also invented by him.

'But it doesn't matter much to me.'

By using Jake's pocket watch, which was obtained from the Bronze Rock Mountain, the movement of surrounding objects created using magic engineering could be stopped for 20 seconds.

Originally, it was 10 seconds, but as the item’s grade rose to B, the performance improved, and the range increased from 15m to 30m.

Of course, it was a short time, but it was enough to neutralize any magic engineered weapon.

Currently, there was no means to stop the undead Charybdis in the Dane Kingdom.

“Silvator, go out and grab the attention of the enemies.”

[Yes, I shall follow your order.]

Silvator led the monster troops towards the southern gate.

Then, the soldiers on the wall were surprised to see them and fired arrows.

“It's a giant!”

“A monster attack!”

Although it was a kingdom under Dantalion's rule, monsters had never flocked to the front of the capital in this manner.

It was because he was involved in state affairs through Heinrich III, he acted only behind the scenes.

When the soldiers were panicking, Woohyuk led the main team to the forest and headed for the northern gate.

A pincer attack.

When a large army attacked one of the gates, numerous soldiers had to be deployed there. So they could use this to confuse the enemies, and attack the city from another gate.

'Although there we have ladders and siege weapons...’

There was no need to fight head on and receive many casualties.

There was a much easier way than that.

When he arrived at the Northern Gate, Woohyuk summoned the undead Charybdis and climbed on top of it.

“Wooooooooooooooooooooo!”

The surroundings were covered in darkness as the powerful cry of a whale resounded.

It had covered the sun with its gargantuan body.

Naturally, the soldiers were trembling in fear.

“Wha, what the hell is that?!”

“It looks like a whale…”

“What kind of whale can fly in the sky?”

It had been thousands of years since the War of Gods and Demons had ended, and the legendary monster from that era had reappeared on the Eeth continent.

The commander was also panicking, sweating, and he finally ordered an attack.

“No matter what, we mustn’t let that get in the capital!”

Boom!

Boom!

A pure white laser spewed out of the magic engineering weapons installed on the wall and struck Charybdis’ body.

But that's not enough to defeat it.

Charybdis was a monster that had endured an exceedingly long amount of time against the Spiritual Society.

'It seems about enough.'

Woohyuk, staring down from Charybdis’ back, injected magic into Jake's Pocket Watch.

Then, for an instant, a blue flash brightened the sky and the magic weapons stopped working.

“Vice-Captain! The machine is broken!”

“Fuck, get the engineer quickly!”

“Everyone was dragged to the south gate, so there is no one here.”

And even if there were an engineer, all the influential engineers who had the proper magic engineering knowledge had passed on ages ago.

After the Holy Apheriam Empire began oppressing the magic engineers, no one tried to learn magic engineering.

As the commander stood, unable to speak, the cry of Charybdus was heard from high up in the air again.

“Wooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

This time it summoned a group of sharks under its command.

They spread in all directions and randomly bit the soldiers on the wall.

“Aaaargh!”

“Sa, save me!”

Screams filled with pain and agony echoed from all over.

It was a literal hell.

The chaos ensued and the command system was quickly paralyzed.

Without missing his timing, Woohyuk landed over the city gate in a shark.

He subsequently summoned his undead troops, and the City’s Defense Force, which had been approaching from a distance to support the guards, stopped their advance temporarily.

“Wha, what is it this time?”

“Where did they come from?”

They couldn’t understand the situation at all.

Woohyuk entrusted the command of each unit to the elite undeads and then walked towards the gate.

“Do, don’t approach me! I, I'll kill...”

Stab!

The body of the soldier who was guarding the city gate was cleaved in half by Verserios before he could finish his sentence.

“Don’t get in my way, unless you want to face an end like this one.”

Woohyuk stared at the City Defense Force with his murderous eyes.

As he approached with fiery demonic energy, the men ran away from terror.

“Fuck this! I don’t care anymore!"

“I’m out of here!”

In the first place, there was no reason to devote their lives to fight for this fallen kingdom.

They were merely worried about their wives and children in their houses, and had to obey the orders of the demons.

But now that they didn't stand a chance, they no longer have to pretend to be obedient.

'It looks like the rumors have already spread.'

Woohyuk thought to himself as he looked at the back of the escaping soldiers, asking for help and running for their lives.

In fact, the king had left with the entire army and did not return. The prince ended up taking his place and firmly locked the gates.

If they were going to be conquered anyway and ruled over by the demons, they would prefer to be conquered by The Rhine King instead of the demons.

Clang!

Creaaaak!

After a while, the gate opened, and Woohyuk's army, that was waiting outside, rushed in at once.

“Sasageyo!”

“Aim for the White Keep!”

There was no army in the capital that could face them, because the Dane Kingdom’s army was already serving Woohyuk.

Eventually, the City Defense Forces lost their will and surrendered.

“We, we just fought to protect our families.”

“Please spare our lives.”

If truth, they were all pitiful. Woohyuk showed mercy to them.

“If you join our ranks now, I will forgive you.”

“Tha, thank you very much!”

The soldiers who were waiting for death with humble expressions were grateful.

After incorporating them into the Dane Kingdom’s army, Woohyuk stared at the castle in front of him.

‘Long time no see.’

The White Keep. The name was given because it was made of pure white marble.

Inside was Prince Ramirez in the middle of screaming his head off.

"Petos, how many men are protecting the White Keep?"

“All the Royal Knights and the Court Magicians. They have made a contract with us.”

Therefore, If he summoned all the demons of the Dantalion Barony, he could easily enter the castle.

But Woohyuk shook his head.

"We mustn’t summon too many demons in this battle."

The people of the Dane Kingdom had been subjected to all kinds of violence and had a deep-rooted resentment against demons.

If he destroyed the Dane Kingdom with their support, his public image would be completely ruined.

Moreover, Dantalion was greatly injured from the previous battle, so he wouldn’t be of much use even if Woohyuk summoned him. He just had to do it himself.

“Leifina, Bailey, Hong Yuri. Get here.”

Woohyuk gave orders to the nearby commanders from on top of Charybdis’ head.

With its size, it could support at least ten or twenty thousand people on its body.

It was enough to re-summon the undead.

“Woooooooooooo!”

When the ‘ship’ was full, Charybdis flew into the blue sky with a cry.

Leifina, standing next to Woohyuk, staggered as if she were dizzy.

“I’m, I’m getting dizzy, My Lord.”

“You’re exactly the same as before, aren’t you?”

Of course, he was talking about the Leifina from 40 years ago.

When Woohyuk hugged Leifina with one hand, her face turned beet red.

“My, My Lord…”

“You can lean on me if you’re dizzy.”

Leifina tended to overwork herself more than necessary.

He needed to pay attention to her so that she wouldn’t overdo things.

But he thought it was fortunate that she was always by his side.

Woohyuk recalled the past for a while and then looked down.

A laser fired from a magic weapon was flying towards him.

Booom!

As Woohyuk swung Verserios, the blade flashed and a pitch-black energy wave tore through the air.

After that, light and darkness clashed, and an explosion shook the surroundings.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooom!

A black fog spread everywhere, obstructing the view.

Woohyuk injects magic into Jake's pocket watch and waited for Charybdis to enter the White Keep’s interior.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Badabooom!

Magic weapons from a relatively long distance continued to attack.

Jake's pocket watch’s range was only 30m.

However, those attacks were not enough to stop Charybdis.

“Wooooooooooooooooooo!”

Karabdis made a long cry and summoned its servants again.

As it was advancing, the skill cooldown had finished.

As a swarm of sharks swam through the air, they descended to the walls and bit all the magicians who had been chanting.

“Ahhhhhhhhh!”

“Sa, save me!”

It was literally a blood festival.

The vampires who were stimulated by this jumped off of Charybdis and began to bite the enemies remaining on the wall.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve had such a lavishing meal! I'm satisfied.”

Hong Yuri smiled widely as she approached a female magician trembling in fear.

Soon enough, her sharp fangs penetrated the magician’s fragile throat.

‘She’s grown quite a lot until now.’

Even though it was daytime, her movements were not particularly slow compared to his other vassals.

While Woohyuk watched Hong Yuri's performance, Charybdis landed on the ground with a great impact.

“You guys open the gates and invade the palace. I will find Ramirez.”

It was possible that he had escaped using a secret passage.

Woohyuk hurried to the Dane Palace.

‘Last time I was here, this entire place was a sea of fire.’

At that time, wars were in full swing everywhere, so the Dane Kingdom was like a ruin.

So back then, he had gone through great efforts to take over the throne, but he had hardly gained anything. But this time, the war had been mostly bloodless.

These results were more than satisfactory.

While walking through the palace corridors wearing the Banshee's cloak, he heard the shrieks of women from somewhere.

As a result of estimating the location, it must have been the throne room.

‘Are they doing some sort of monster summoning ritual?’

In the past, Ramirez used to offer living sacrifices after being persuaded by the witch Angrboda.

The possibility that a ritual was happening was high, so Woohyuk hurriedly entered the room.

Clang!

When the door opened, Ramirez, who was in charge of the ceremony, widened his eyes.

He was in the process of sacrificing the maids trapped on the red magic circle one after another.

“Wha, what? Who are…”

He couldn’t continue his words, because a fist had suddenly hit his face.

Thud!

“Urgh…”

Ramirez fell to the floor and groaned, grabbing his nose.

Afterwards, Woohyuk appeared and grabbed the man's neck.

"You’re still as disgusting and distasteful as ever, Ramirez."

“You, you can’t be… Asura?!”

Ramirez's expression turned sheet white.

Woohyuk nodded and spoke again.

“I came to save the kingdom’s people from you.”

"Save? They were born to obey me. Now that my father, Heinrich III, is dead, the ruler of this country is me, and the laws I created...”

Thud!

Woohyuk's arm stretched out again towards the rambling Ramirez.

This time, it was the stomach.

Ramirez gasped for air and fell to the floor.

“You talk too much for a loser.”

“Urgh…”

“Now, I am the law of this kingdom.”

Woohyuk raised Verserios.

Afterwards, a pitch-black blade protruded from Ramirez's chest as it pierced his heart.

1. Sorry, I had to do it hahaha.
