Survive as a Prison Guard in the Game

Chapter 175
Demon People Project (2)

Redis fell from the sky and released a breath of fire. Red flames hit the ground and spread out in all directions.

*FWOOOOSH!!*

He moved his shadow dragon toward the ramparts, watching as it swept through the cultists.

Redin recalled back the dragon and stood on the ramparts.

And then, using Lord Mode, he summoned his shadow minions. Dozens of them. With them, he mowed down the cultists who had climbed the walls.

*Slash!* *Slash!

*Swish!*

“Urgk!”

“Take care of those shadows first!”

The numbers of cultists on the ramparts were larger than expected. Making quick work of them, he reached Rebecca’s side.

“Are you okay?”

“Redin?”

“You held up well, I’ll take care of the rest. You can rest here for a while.”

He handed Rebecca a potion and went to work.

The cultists on the fortress walls were dealt with using the shadows, and dragon magic was used against those climbing the walls.

“Freeze.”

With that word, mana flowed out of Redin, creating a wall of ice around the entire wall.

The cultists climbing the walls all slipped and fell to the ground.

It didn’t stop there.

“Break.”

The ice wall shattered in one fell swoop, breaking into several chunks and raining down on the ground where the cultists had fallen.

*Swish!*

With a wave of his hand, the ice cascaded down. The ice in the shape of an awl took the lives of the demon cultists.

“Urkkk!”

“Keuheok!”

A brief moment of peace descended upon the ramparts as Redin cleared the area around the walls. He told the surrounding knights to tend to the wounded first.

Redin leapt from the ramparts.

Stepping over the dead bodies of the cultists, he stood up and strode forward. Without looking back, he drew his sword as the cultists approached.

He imbued the blade with his mana and swung it.

The Halfmoon wave extended out, severing the heads of the cultists in front of him.

Using defensive magic in between.

They even used some black magic and stuff.

All of them were cut down by the halfmoon attack, decapitating them as it passed.

The cultists, overwhelmed by his momentum, flinched.

Every step he took.

They took two steps backward.

But retreating wasn’t going to save their lives.

*BAAAM!* *BOOOM!* *CRASH!*

Redis and the Apostle clashed.

In their wake, the cultists were blasted.

“Aaaaah!”

“Eek!”

As the demon cultists trembled in fear, the apostle fighting with Redis spoke in a cold voice.

“Commit suicide, all of you.”

“For the Demon God!”

“I give my life!”

The demon cultists each lifted their weapons and stabbed themselves in the heart. The demonic energy gathered in their bodies flowed into the Gate to the Demon Realm.

Redin moved his body to stop it.

Using his alter egos who had finished sweeping the ramparts, he cleared the enemies in front of him.

So that they could not send their demonic energy.

Then he pulled out a vial of holy water and used the Sword of Judgment. He hurled it at the converging demonic energy at the Demon Gate.

The white holy sword purified the demonic energy flowing towards the gate to the demon realm.

*Crack!* *Boom!* *Rumbles!*

*Boom!* *Baaam!* *CRACK!*

As Redin watched the battle between Redis and Apostle using their respective trump cards, he rounded up all the remaining cultists.

Redis the Half Dragon.

She grew in strength with each fight, awakening her powers, until she gained the upper hand and overwhelmed the Apostle.

The end of the battle was in sight.

“Damn!”

The apostle gritted his teeth and awakened, but was still pushed back by Redis. Suddenly, the seemingly desperate apostle smirked.

“Kehehehe. You’re here.”

‘They’re here?’ Redin’s brow furrowed suddenly.

At that moment, a new sensation was detected.

Redin lifted his head and looked at the sky.

Something was falling fast.

It was a mixture of dissimilar energies.

They were falling so fast that it was impossible to distinguish their identity with normal vision.

*CRACK!*

The ground cracked and a cloud of smoke billowed out. Within the plumes of smoke, an unearthly presence. It was even more powerful than when the apostle awakened.

*Whoosh!*

The smoke cleared, revealing something.

A chimera with the characteristics of various races.

It had green skin like an orc, pointed ears like an elf, and a human face.

Redin could sense magic.

He also sensed other types of energy.

The leader of the Darkness Seven who had rebuilt the Oberg Empire. If the sensation was similar to Rodwell’s, this one must have half-dragon blood.

“Kill.”

The chimera opened its mouth.

And then it moved.

The sword lying on the ground was drawn into the chimera’s hand, and it swung at him.

*Bang!*

Sparks flew as the swords clashed.

“You can speak?”

“Purgatory. New body. Good.”

If it’s Purgatory.

“The souls taken by the Demon Church?”

One of them was unmistakable.

“You. Kill.”

The words were still a little slurred, but they made their intentions clear. The black aura blade was formed from the chimera’s sword.

Redin formed his own auror blade to match.

*Clang!*

*BANG!*

The sword exploded with two small bursts of power.

The chimera absorbed all the power on the spot and charged back.

As if the repeated clashes weren’t enough, the demonic energy in its sword began to increase.

With every blow, it was getting stronger.

“…First, information.”

It wasn’t just one soul taken by the Church of the Demon God. If there are several of these chimeras, he need to gather as much information as possible.

He used the moonlight sword against the chimera.

Redin studied its movements, gathered information, and swung his blade accordingly.

“Kehehe.”

The chimera’s mouth curled upward as it thrust its sword forward.

With that, demonic energy spread out in all directions, rushing toward him in waves of blackness.

Not just any demonic energy.

The compressed energy of the aura blade, like a massive tidal wave, crashed down from above.

Redin cleaved the wave with a Crescent Slash.

*Kaaaah!*

The wave created by the chimera burst and enveloped the surroundings. For a moment, the surroundings darkened, and he could feel the chimera’s presence within it.

As he continued to check with the Moonlight Sword, Redin could see the trajectory of the chimera’s attack.

The chimera’s blade drew a spiral like a raging wave. A strike that condensed the massive wave entirely onto the blade.

No ordinary aura blade could stop it.

His own aura blade pushed to the limit turned translucent, and he swung it to block the Chimera’s blade.

Two condensed forces collided.

Instead of an explosion, the opposing forces were eroding each other, gradually vanishing.

“You’re strong. But I. Am stronger.”

The chimera drew upon demonic energy while simultaneously using mana.

A mana imbued with the might of a dragon.

His sword exploded with raw power.

It was pointless to engage in further combat.

“I’ll put the information to good use.”

Focusing all his concentration, Redin used the Moonlight Sword, completely erasing his presence from the chimera’s sight.

Then he swung the sword smoothly.

The chimera’s head rolled to the ground, unaware of what had happened.

Its expression was that of a beast unaware of its own death.

[Harvest Cursed Soul].

Perhaps because the chimera had a soul inside its body, the Mask of the Dead effect was triggered.

Memories of the Chimera enter Redin’s mind.

He was in a dark room with shards of broken glass on the floor and a green liquid dripping from his feet.

-What’s your name?

Someone’s voice.

With it, the chimera’s gaze rose.

A mouth was visible, hidden by a black hood.

-N….ame

-Yes. Your name.

-A…. leck.

-Apostle, this is a huge success.

At the words of the researcher next to them, the black-hooded person smirked.

Apostle.

The one who broke into Purgatory, climbed to the upper leagues, and snatched the soul of the Sword Saint.

-Transplant the rest of them as well.

-Let’s send this one to the Adrian Kingdom first.

And that was the end of the chimera’s memories.

Redin had the opportunity to interrogate the Chimera, but he didn’t use it.

Since there won’t be any proper memories anyway.

“Rather…”

He glanced at Apostle, who was fighting Redis.

That one would know more. He waited for Redis to finish, then wrapped up the Apostle and read his memories.

Unfortunately, there was no information about the location of the experiment.

He was able to find out where the other Apostles were and the location of the Demon Gates.

Using the Sword of Judgment, he destroyed the Demonic Gate and made his way with Redis to Rebecca’s location.

“You’re so strong now that I can’t keep up with you.”

Rebecca expresses her regret.

In the original story, Rebecca would have gotten to this level of power, but the time frame was too short.

“You can do it, too.”

“Of course I can.”

Rebecca hardened her expression as she looked around at the crumbling walls and soldiers groaning in pain.

“I’ll become stronger and make the Adrian Kingdom powerful too.”

“Yeah. That’s a good goal.”

” Still, thanks to you, we’re alive, so thank you.”

He was relieved.

“Redis, I need you to guard the Adrian Kingdom while it reorganizes.”

“I understand.”

“Are you leaving right away?”

He nodded at Rebecca’s question.

“Yes. And I have a favor to ask.”

“What?”

He handed Rebecca the information about the Chimera he’d dealt with. Their physical characteristics, their abilities as possessed souls.

“If they ever encounter them, tell them to run away and never engage in combat.”

“Understood.”

After a quick nod to Rebecca, he launched himself over the ramparts.

Creating a shadow dragon and mounting it, he headed for the other Apostles he’d found after killing the Apostle.

Gathering information one step at a time like this will eventually lead him to the location where the experiment is being conducted.

Enchantment in the eyes of the Demonic Person.

Having seen the entirety of the battle through it, the Demon Cultist Roton walked to the Apostle’s location with a regretful expression on his face.

The Apostle’s private training room.

After standing in front of it for a moment, he heard a voice calling him to come inside.

Roton opened the door and stepped inside.

The Apostle stood shirtless, with his eyes closed in silence.

“Apostle, the first test subject has died.”

The Apostle’s brow lifted at Roton’s report.

“To whom?”

“Redin.”

“And the battle?”

“It was almost one-sided.”

“He has grown quite skilled. To the point where he can play with a Demonic Person.”

It was apparent that Redin had undergone special training in Purgatory.

“And there’s something else I discovered.”

“What is it?”

“It seemed to me that he was learning something from the dead.”

“Huh?”

There were more than a few strange things about Redin.

From personally locating and destroying all of the Demon Church’s secret hideouts to meticulously unraveling and thwarting their carefully laid plans.

“He has that kind of power?”

If so, then he must have gotten the information from the dead apostle, as well as from the test subject.

“What about the other test subjects?”

“We have them stabilized.”

“Send them all to Redin. No matter how strong he is, he won’t be able to take on all of them.”

“Huh? I don’t think we have enough test subjects to expend like that…….”

At the Apostle’s murderous glare, Roton bowed his head apologetically.

“I see.”

“And send the Sword Saint’s soul back to the Headquarters. There, we’ll finish this project once and for all.”

“Understood.”
