Chapter 57: Second Coming of the Devil King 3
With the marionette magic, Luke ordered the golems .
The golems pulled out the large and small rocks around them and threw them at the cavalry .
Swooong! Kwang! Ouch!?
“Kuaaak!”
“Kaaak!”
Hiiing?!
The stones and rocks which flew like shells crushed the horses and troopers at once .
The golems, which had confused the cavalry with their attacks, began to attack with their big arms .
“Damn, stop it! Attack!”
“Do not back down! Your opponent isn’t a Gigant! It is just a Golem!”
The Gigant, the absolute battle weapon of modern magical engineering, weren’t things which normal troopers could deal with .
However, the golems were different .
Their size was half as small as the Gigant, the material was wood or stone which couldn’t even be compared with the iron plates . In addition, the movement was much slower than the Gigant, so if one could manage, then they could knock it down .
‘That is only possible if the one controlling the golems wasn’t good . ’
The weapons basically vary depending on the skills .
No matter how good a sword was, it was useless in the hands of a child, while a bladeless knife can be dangerous in the hands of assassins .
In that matter, Luke was an expert .
In the past, the Golem Legion had done great damage to both the nation and the Empire .
He had fought with numerous opponents and among them, various cavalries of multiple estates were there .
‘Kuuk, today I’ll show you how the battle with the Warlock Saymon feels like!’
Although he couldn’t say it out loud, he vowed to show the pig-like Count’s men how he had smashed all his enemies in the past .
Luke with his open arms began to operate as the golems were like a leader in a band .
He first divided the golems into 4 units .
And then the golems assaulted the troopers, who were surrounding the Volga refugees .
The refugees were being protected by the magic flame, however, the refugees could be hit by blind spears and sword during the battle .
“Open the way!”

“Change the lines and assault unit go ahead!”
The cavalry managed to raid the golem with the assault spear .
However, Luke shielded the companions of the cavalry .
It led to a melee fight that made the cavalry assume that Luke had inside men .
The cavalry was never so scary when the most powerful unit, the leader of it was blocked .
And the horses weren’t the regular infantry, they were stubborn than the regular ones, and in some cases, they were hard targets .
Luke pushed the cavalry with a few tactics to contain his merits as much as possible .
“Damn, Dammit! Stop right away or I’ll kill the princess!”
As the damage to his subordinates didn’t stop, Viper was completely angry .
The lieutenant who heard his cry quickly pointed the sword at the princess’s neck .
However, Luke didn’t keep an eye on her from the start .
“Blink!”
Luke’s body flashed and then disappeared with the end of the spell .
And appeared in front of the princess .
“Ahh!”
As the lieutenant was shocked, Luke didn’t give him the time to recover and shot dark bullets with his finger .
“Kaaak!”
As purple bullets penetrated his heart, the lieutenant screamed and collapsed .
Startled at it, Viper decided to tackle Luke with his own sword .
However, Luke hugged the princes with ease and used Blink and went back to the place where he was .
Blink Magic was a 6 circle short distance teleportation spell that was in one of the books that were stolen from the Veritas Magic Tower .
The magic usually required 6 circles of mana, however, Luke had Magi .
The nature of Magi was no different from Mana .
Unlike mana, however, it transformed creatures or objects into powerful and complex characters .
So, it was dangerous to control, but, if it could be handled well, even with few Magi, high circle magic could be used .
In addition to the 6 circle Blink, Luke was able to express the Fire Wall of the 5 Circle, which he had used for the Volga refugees .
“Thank, thank you . ”
Reina quickly thanked her life saver .
Her face was red .

How many times did she get help from the man and why was the man so devoted to helping her?
“Later with all those . I’ll deal with the bad guys, princess go to your people . ”
Luke released Reina and opened one side of the Fire Wall .
The old servants then popped out of the fire, joined the princess and hurried towards the Nair river .
“Dammit, don’t let them go!”
At Viper’s pursuit, several horsemen tried to chase after them . However, Luke had struck with a dark lightning .
Viper was furious .
“Kah! Luke young Lord!”
After seeing Viper and the refugees moving away safely, Luke looked into the eyes of Viper and the Scorpion Cavalry .
“Kkk, shall we fight earnestly now?”
Luke, who had cleared out all of the obstacles in the combat, focused on manipulating the golems .
The golems were much more furious and started to run .
The cavalry was trying to take them down by finding out their weakness, but whenever they were close to destroying it, Luke managed to destroy their anticipations .
Controlling 40 golems at once wasn’t an easy task, even for a great wizard .
However, Luke couldn’t be compared with a great wizard .
Formerly, known as the Black Sage, a 9 circle warlock, the one who had created and manipulated the golems .
Of course, he didn’t have the power of that time, which was why he couldn’t hold onto anything more than 40 golems .
However, because of the past battle experiences, only when necessary, he was using the marionette magic to order them and fight .
And the gap created in the process was completely helping in using the magic efficiently .
“Die, Luke young Lord!”
The troopers desperately attacked the golems to rush towards Luke .
However, they all fell victim to the dark bullet that Luke used .
Shhik! Ugh! Ugh!
“Kauk!”
“Kaaaack!”
Whenever the bullets of purple flew by, the horses and the troopers hit by them rolled on the ground in their own blood puddles .
“Ugh! What is this magic?”
“Devil! That guy must be a devil!”
The Fire Arrow and the Ice Lance, which were similar to the dark bullets, could only be fired once at a time .
However, the Dark Bullet could charge up to 10 shots at the same time, charging to 5 feet ahead .
Crossing the left and the right hand and properly attacking with the time difference, a dozen people could be wiped out .
“Retreat! All of you retreat!”
Viper gave out his orders to retreat, as the situation seemed meaningless .
However, Luke wasn’t going to compel with the decision .
‘The truth that appeared here shouldn’t be known to the Count . ’
The battle with Count was to be prepared, but it was necessary to take time before the Rakan Viscount would get ready .
To do so, it was necessary to conceal the fact that the Rakan’s descendant was the one who had intervened in fleeing .
And the fact that he used magic and controlled the golems couldn’t be told to the world just yet .
Because Luke had learned magic for a short time in this life, and Saymon the Warlock was the only one who operated Golems for combat .
If that was known, the retainers of Rakan would begin to doubt their own lord .
“Stop their retreat! Do not let them escape!”
Luke ordered the golems to pursue them, while the Fire Wall spread out behind them .
Hiiing!
“Dammit! We can’t go through it!”
Eventually, the Scorpion Cavalry was like a rat stuck in a rat trap .
The front was being blocked by the Fire Wall, and in the back, they were being chased by the Golems .
“Dammit, we are done!”
“Surrender! Please save me!”
Some cavalry troopers jumped into the Fire Wall or rushed towards the golems, and some of them abandoned their weapons and surrendered .
Luke didn’t accept their surrender .
“There is no need for prisoners! Kill then all!”
There was no way he could let the prisoners of the battle live .
And they were the notorious Scorpion Cavalry, who were the highest pride of the Count Monarch .
If they were saved, it was obvious that they would bother him .
At Luke’s instructions, the golems attacked again, eventually destroying everyone of the Scorpion Cavalry who blocked back and front .
