Lord Summoner's Freedom Philosophy: Grimoire of Love

Chapter 78 The Subjugation Of The Goblin King (12) The Revealing



The heads of the surrounding goblins had fallen to the ground, including the strong black goblin champions. The head of the ax that was about to kill Surena is lying on the ground beside her, it seems that the shoulder of the ax got deflected powerfully enough that it got split into two.

Amidst the lying corpses of the goblins, a beautiful woman clad in a majestic-looking armor stood while holding her sword in a plant pose. Her beautiful blonde hair fluttered as she stared in a certain direction with a smile.

"Who... Are you...?" (Emilia)

"Me? A knight- No, right now, I\'m his proud spirit, I guess," The woman replied with a gentle smile.

"Considering his action today, I guess it\'s fine for me to forget how he secretly did the deed with Lilith,"

On the other side, at the Astellian group.

The same development just like what happened on the Valkyries\' side unfolded on their side as well. The goblin champions started to use the stakes as their weapons after five of them got killed by Erich and Julius, but while gritting his teeth, Julius resolved himself to sacrifice those captives in change for his master\'s life.

As his sword was about to collide with the woman on the stake that got swung by the goblin champion as a weapon, a sound of thunderclap sounded together with a silver flash that passed before him.

*Clap!* *Clank!*

"W-Wha-" Julius exclaimed in surprise as his blow got blocked by something, but at the same time, he saw how the ropes tying the woman got cut, freeing her. Julius swiftly caught her with one hand, but the scene before him forced him to widen his eyes.

*Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!*

Together with powerful thunderclaps resounding throughout the place, silver flashes appeared here and there, and together with them, the heads of the goblins also flew and part from their bodies with a smell of burnt blood and flesh filling the air around them.

*Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!*

The bodies of the goblins and goblin champions fall motionlessly to the ground, leaving a single figure standing. Erich, Julius, and the royal knights didn\'t know whether the figure before them is a man or a woman, but the back that shows an invincible strength reminded Julius and Erich of a certain person.

The commander in chief of all knight orders in the kingdom, Griselda Alaister Fulmine.

"You\'re knights, aren\'t you? No matter what the situation is, protecting the weak even if you need to risk yourself is your duty, isn\'t it? The time the thought of sacrificing someone crossed your mind, you\'ve failed as a knight," Her reprimanding tone resounded inside the royal knights\' ears.

Her voice is different from the knight commander in their memories, she\'s using a hood and a mask that covered her face and identity, but the tone and the scolding words couldn\'t help but remind them of the dead knight commander of their country.

(No. She\'s dead. I confirmed her corpse that day. More importantly, the sudden appearance of her, don\'t tell me...) (Erich)

Erich shifted his gaze towards Lyan\'s direction and gasped in excitement as a broad smile appeared on his face.

"I knew it!! I knew it!! Hahahaha!! So you finally reveal yourself!! Lyan!!" (Erich)

Erich excitedly gazes at the scene before him. A huge ice golem and rock golem are covering the women that got freed from the stakes, a hobgoblin clad in black attire is running all over the place killing the remaining goblins, while a sinister-looking flying skeleton is killing the goblins with its claws, and slowly, the goblins that got killed by its claws had their skin rot and rise as an undead skeleton.

A light green-haired girl flying with a small typhoon under her is blocking a hole leading to another room that seemed to be filled with goblin reinforcements, while a cold-looking dark blue-haired girl is blocking the other hole on the opposite side, sending ice shards towards the hole with powerful speed.

Not only them, but there is also a purple-haired demon-like girl, a small green-haired little girl with strange horns on her head, a girl with curly red hair, and a girl that looks like a priestess walking beside him as he approached the goblin king that had already risen from its throne.

The Astellian, The Valkyries, Ravia, and Raine saw how Lyan and the four girls approached the goblin king. With the goblin king that has a size a little bigger than the black goblin champions, the scene looks like a hero that is about to challenge the demon king. Little do they know that the conversation occurring on the spot is a little bit off.

"So what kind of punishment did you get, Lilith? Did they insert something to your ass or something?" (Lyan)

"P-Please don\'t make me remember, master..." (Lilith)

"Oh. Do you want to know about it, Lyan?" (Hestia)

"Fufufu~ It was a masterpiece idea from me, master. I could tell you in detail if you want to know," (Cynthia)

"Sis Lilith was crouching down and was-" (Azelia)

"A-Azelia-chan! You must not say it!!" Lilith closes Azelia\'s mouth in panic.

"Well, I\'ve ended up summoning these monsters because of you, goblin king. So which of you want to face him first?" Lyan asked the girls beside him.

As if it understand that he was being underestimated, the goblin king slammed its huge staff to the ground, making the robe it was wearing flutter before letting out a roar.

Several black magic circles appeared around him following his roar, but-

"Black portals, is it? I\'m afraid no," Cynthia\'s palm shone with beautiful golden light, and with a light push, a golden barrier surrounded all of them. As if it got purified, the black magic circles dispersed when they got into contact with the golden barrier.

Gugu? The goblin king made a confused sound.

"Ugh... Your voice is annoying!" Azelia swayed her hand, and thick vines suddenly sprouted from the ground, and with terrifying speed, the vines entangled the goblin king, restricting its hands and feet from moving.

"Ah. Looks like they are another secret entrance," (Lyan)

The ground before the throne suddenly opened, and another horde of hobgoblins appeared. The hobgoblins appearing from the hole seem to be not stopping, and suddenly, the goblin king let out another roar.

The roar isn\'t as loud as before, but rather than for intimidating, the roar sounded like it has another purpose. As if answering Lyan and company\'s expectation, the hobgoblins surrounding the goblin king suddenly grow and they witness how they turned into goblin champions in such a split second.

"So it\'s a goblin king shaman. A reinforcement magic-using leader, huh. For it to be a goblin, how disgusting~" (Lilith)

"Stop showing that unsightly transformation, would you? *Snap!*" Hestia snapped her fingers, and dozens of magic circles appeared surrounding the goblin king and the goblin champions around him.

"Burn," (Hestia)

*Whoosh!!!*

Powerful flames appeared and raged, burning the goblin king and the goblin champions alive. They seem to be struggling, but since the goblin king is getting bounded by Azelia\'s thick vines, the goblin champions and hobgoblins seem to be sticking close to the goblin king.

"Even though it\'s that hot, they are still sticking that close to each other. They must be idiots," (Lyan)

After a while, the flame disappeared, leaving only black and unsightly figures before them. But unexpectedly, the goblin king is still alive. Lyan and company saw how its chest rises and falls, it\'s still breathing despite of its body getting completely black like a charcoal.

"Fufufu! Looks like it purposely remains to get finished by me, huh~ I guess I\'ll take the opportunity to lend my strength a bit. [Spear of Blood], finish him please," (Lilith)

Blood that is splattered everywhere gathered before Lilith, forming into something more like a lance rather than a spear. Because of the great amount of blood everywhere in the area, the [Spear of Blood] formed before her has quite the size. The goblin king seems to be shivering in fear in face of such a big danger.

(What a pity. But you\'re way too creepy and disgusting right now, so just accept your fate, gobu) (Lyan)

With a wave of her hand, the [Spear of Blood] mercilessly thrust into the goblin king\'s chest. Blood splattered all over the place, and the goblin king roared and groaned because of the intense pain it is feeling.

"You... Why didn\'t you finish it in one go!? its voice is so disturbing!!" (Hestia)

"How should I know that it wouldn\'t instantly die!? normal person would have immediately gone into the afterlife after getting thrust by such a huge spear!!" (Lilith)

"It\'s more like a lance, though," (Cynthia)

"Oh shut up!" (Lilith)

As Lyan felt like retorting to the conversation of the spirits, his vision suddenly got blurry.

(Eh? What is happening?) (Lyan)

His feet started to shake as he lose the strength to stand, and as he stumbled on a small rock, he fell as his vision went dark.

"""Master!"""
