Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 588

Kwa-rururung!!

The lightning that suddenly fell toward Antonio was something he had copied from Zeus.

It was a relief.

He had worried it might be judged unusable because it belonged to another god, but perhaps because the system still recognized it as divine, the lightning struck magnificently as a hidden card at an ideal moment.

“Cardinal!!”

Startled, Silen screamed Antonio’s name at the top of his lungs.

But at that moment, Su-ho’s club approached the side of Silen’s turned head.

[ Enhancement is activated. ]

[ Diamond Cut is activated. ]

[ Enhancement is applied. ]

[ The power of Diamond Cut grows even stronger. ]

Kwaaaaang!!

A roar as powerful as lightning.

He had swung with the force to cut him down, but unfortunately, it did not cut him.

Because it was not a sword?

No.

Even if it had been a sword, it would not have cut him.

His opponent was a holy knight.

And among them, one who had reached the peak, an existence so known for his uniquely tenacious vitality that people had even given him the derogatory nickname cockroach.

Silen’s head turned back toward Su-ho like that of a berserker.

“You bastard!”

[ Radiant Strike of Holy Light is activated. ]

A powerful flash exploded, and his greatsword shot toward Su-ho.

Swung at close range, it seemed utterly impossible to dodge.

Silen was certain of that.

But the moment he reflexively turned his head and thrust out his sword, he had no choice but to doubt his own eyes.

Because in front of him, countless Su-hos were holding Heracles’s Club and aiming at him.

“Hello?”

“Hello?”

“Hello?”

“Hello?”

“......!”

Su-ho’s own voice echoed from all directions like a ghostly reverberation, enough to send a chill down even the spine of a holy knight at the peak.

The true identity of the countless Su-hos was clone soldiers created through Army Tactics.

The multiplied Su-hos each raised their clubs and thrust them toward Silen all at once, like a magician’s greatsword-piercing trick.

[ Hundred Strikes is activated. ]

[ The power of Hundred Strikes grows even stronger. ]

Kwaaaaaang!!

A raging skill combination.

Like dynamite exploding the moment it was shoved in, an enormous blast and skill effects erupted.

And also.

[ Lightning is activated. ]

Lightning fell on him once more.

Overwhelming force.

But a holy knight was still a holy knight.

[ Radiant Strike of Holy Light is activated. ]

Papapapang!

Su-ho burst apart.

More precisely, Su-ho’s clone soldiers burst apart.

He had clearly stabbed into a blind spot with perfect timing, but the Silver Cardinal was still the Silver Cardinal.

Silver effects surged from his body, and holy protection poured out to defend him.

“Did you think something like this would be enough to do anything to me?!”

It was tremendous force.

Su-ho had clearly poured in everything he could, yet he had not expected Silen to endure all of that and even counterattack.

But at that moment, another sight entered Silen’s eyes.

Far away, Antonio and Wolfgang were surrounded by Su-ho’s clone soldiers.

They were holding their clubs like lances, just as they had done to him.

Silen cried out urgently.

“Wait...!”

[ Point is activated. ]

[ Enhancement is activated. ]

[ Hundred Strikes is activated. ]

[ Enhancement is applied. ]

[ The power of Hundred Strikes grows even stronger. ]

Kwaaaaaang!!

Before Silen could even finish trying to stop them, countless Hundred Strikes erupted once again.

Thick clouds of dust.

There were far more clone soldiers there than the number that had gathered around him.

Silen dashed toward the two of them in desperation.

But before long, he was able to slow down.

Because when the thick dust cleared, Wolfgang, called the strongest shield of the Pantheon, had proudly protected Antonio with his protective holy spell.

Joy flashed in Silen’s eyes when he saw it.

“As expected...!”

Of course.

How dare he, when the strongest shield of the Pantheon was here!

Thinking that, Silen immediately swung his sword again and cut down the clone soldiers.

But just as the clone soldiers burst apart, a sharp cutting sound came from somewhere.

At the same time, Antonio shouted,

“Lord Silen!! Above!!”

“Above?”

At Antonio’s cry, his head turned automatically.

His gaze landed on the sky.

And the sky was.

Astonishingly, split in two as if it were a lie.

More precisely, the two yellow and white crosses spread beneath the sky—the skill effects of White Zone and Sacred Zone—had been cut in half.

And at the center, the real Su-ho was lingering in midair after cutting the crosses with the club as though it were the Blood Sword.

[ Enhancement is activated. ]

[ Soul Slash is activated. ]

[ Enhancement is applied. ]

[ The power of Soul Slash grows even stronger. ]

Su-ho cleared away the system notifications floating before his eyes and looked at Silen’s face.

A dumbstruck expression.

Haha, so you can make that kind of face too?

You kept acting so solemn for someone like you.
