Trash of the Count's Family

TCF2-56

A single strand of red light with a golden glow fell from the sky.

It took a bit of time for people to figure out that it was a thunderbolt.

That was how swiftly it moved.

However, the moment that the swift thunderbolt crashed into a dead mana arrow that was giving off a holy white light...

Pss-

Clunk.

The Emperor jumped up from his seat.

The white light was destroyed.

Silently.

And so easily that it was unbelievable.

That was the beginning.

The red thunderbolt with the golden glow was not satisfied with swallowing just one arrow.

The rose gold thunderbolt swallowed another arrow next to it.

And then next to that. Then next to that one as well.

“...A spider web.”

It resembled the black spider webs drawn all over the bodies of those who had overcome dead mana.

The rose gold thunderbolt spread out like a spider web.

Extremely quickly.

So quickly that the white arrows could not escape.

The white arrows that filled the air as they fell toward the plaza and the capital were swallowed by something even quicker than them.

“Ah......”

One of the Agents of Destruction gasped as they watched.

The sky was red.

The red current that was glowing gold thoroughly spread out like a spider web and appeared in the sky.

‘No.’

That was not a spider web.

The intertwined rose gold light looked like a fine cloth.

It was like a red cloth glowing gold around the blue sky.

Plop.

The Agent blinked after feeling something touch his eye.

He reached out his hand.

Plop. Plop.

White ashes fell on his palm.

The ashes fell from the red cloth.

Slowly.

They resembled first snow.

“U, unbelievable!”

He turned his head after hearing the sudden shout. The black mages were gasping in astonishment while looking at the white ashes.

They reached out to grasp the white ashes in disbelief.

“How, how could something like this-”

One of the black mages was shaking. His voice was trembling as if he saw something completely unbelievable. His pupils were shaking as well.

However, there was something other than despair in his voice.

“...He purified dead mana......!”

Black mages and knights of Dark Elf origins all around the area started to speak as well.

It was as if they could not bear to remain silent about what they were looking at right now.

“It disappeared. All of the dead mana disappeared!”

“How does this make any sense?! This, this can't be real!”

“...There is a power that can destroy dead mana?”

One of the black mages shouted while clutching onto some white ashes.

“It's harmless! This is harmless to the human body!”

“Then that means that the dead mana was purified......!”

The person who was saying that turned to look toward the platform.

The white-haired man.

He was quietly standing there.

However, a mysterious aura could be felt coming from him.

Although he could not see anything, a strange pressure that made it hard to approach the man was coming out of his body.

It was at that moment.

Boom. Boom. Boom!

The bishops who were being dangled by the skeleton monsters fell to the ground one by one.

They then moved to stand behind the Pope.

They clasped their hands together like the Pope as well.

Plop.

They then knelt down on the ground and bowed.

“We greet the esteemed Purifier!”

The people in the area finally recalled that the Pope had called this person the Purifier earlier.

“What the hell? What the hell is going on?”

“He purified dead mana? Are you saying that the priest over there is capable of getting rid of dead mana?”

“I think so? The black mages are a mess right now! My goodness, then, then-”

The citizens of the Empire could not hide their chaotic state.
