Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 779
◈ 779. [[Unknown] In a destroyed world (4)
Three types of monsters surround the ruins and are sucked in like a whirlpool..
Countless swarms of rats, led by the Great Rat Mother, devour everything that lives..
Tamjinchi and Noesang Noesang 108 begin reciting contaminated aphorisms in earnest, causing people who hear the aphorisms to go crazy and kill each other..
And the Apocalypse Knights, led by the Four Knights of Destruction, each deny human life itself through plague, famine, war, and death..
destroying human habitats,
destroy the human mind,
destroying human life itself…….
As if they were born to do so from the beginning, monsters destroy a world on the verge of destruction..
The ruined city is already full of human corpses..
With their prey dwindling, the three groups of monsters are now fighting each other..
A flock of rats come in waves and fill up the huge statue, Tamjinchi, and climb on top of it..
The Colossi, who don't care whether there are rats all over their bodies, recite the most terrible epigrams towards the Apocalypse Knights..
And the Apocalypse Knights each raise their bows, greatswords, scales, and sickles and slaughter the rats..
“……ha.”
In the middle of this unreal battlefield.
Sid let out a soft sigh..
“We just came to get medicine.…….”
As you have for the past 15 years, you must let go of your comrades, relocate your home, hunt for rats, scour ruins, and fight off other groups of survivors.…….
I just tried to continue living another day like that..
The destruction of it all was just around the corner..
Doo doo doo doo-!
Monsters who had already noticed our location rushed towards us through the cracks in the ruins..
match-!
Cid clapped his hands outward, and a huge ring of light was created, completely erasing all the monsters gathered in the area..
However, before we could push the enemies away, the next monsters immediately filled the empty space and rushed towards us..
thud!
Elise stepped in front of me, stuck the sword into the floor, and then spit out a starter word as if chewing it up..
“inspection, deployment.”
Elise shouted as she rushed towards the pouring monsters without even looking back at the wide open sword..
“2Sword number 4, sword number 4, sword number 7, sword number 12, sword number 13… … shit! Just fire all the weapons you can use.!”
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Return to school! Return to school! Going to school!
Various swords were launched from the swordsman like rockets and rained down on Elise's location like a bombardment..
Elise one after another snatched the swords out of the air and struck them at the monsters that came close..
A hugely deformed ratman, a statue of anguish spewing evil epigrams, and an Apocalypse Knight firing a curse with a waving cape were brutally cut with a sword..
Cheer up! Cheonggang! Pachick……!
Because the enemies were also strong and strong, Elise's sword could not last long and was broken..
But Elise didn't care at all, threw away the sword she was using, grabbed the next sword, and thrust it into the enemy's head..
“…….”
Each time Sid gathers magical power, he cleanses the surroundings, and Elise directly deals with the enemies that penetrate the magic..
This alone kept the front lines somewhat hostile, but we were unable to escape their siege at all..
And in the sky far away, two beings - the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ and the Crown – were approaching us at every moment..
At this rate, it is difficult to escape, and they will catch you..
“Phew.”
I closed and opened my eyes and slowly awakened the power of the dragon within me..
Gooooo……!
The earth trembled slightly, announcing to the world the arrival of the dragon..
Sid, embarrassed, urgently turned to me and shouted..
“Godfather, no.!”
“What can't be done in this situation?.”
As more and more monsters flocked, it became impossible to completely drive them out even with Seed's magic..
“Ughhh!”
It was also seen that Elise's prosthetic arm, which was fighting bravely, was caught by the enemies and torn off..
It is no longer time to hesitate. I instantly awakened all the dragon hearts and blood vessels in my body..
“Ugh……!”
My vision turned black and red repeatedly. I immediately felt my presence moving away from people..
After the destruction, the dragon's power was invoked too often, and now it has reached a point where the ego is polluted every time the dragon's power is used..
Memories are lost, and the will of the black dragon and red dragon mix, rebel, and collide within..
In the first place, I was the one assigned to stage 50 to continue the fight. After using it for 15 more years, it is only natural that the taste will go away..
‘doesn't care!’
I took a deep breath..
And in the direction where the most monsters were gathered - I vomited with all my might..
Tuhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
dragon breath.
Unmixable black and red flames shot out, pushing each other away, burning everything in their path..
‘Ugh!’
I could taste blood inside my burned throat..
The heat from the breath burned my winter coat, exposing my upper body, including my neck, to the world. My body covered with black and red dragon scales…….
“Ha, cough! Cough!”
I coughed violently and vomited blood..
My body was a little messed up, but thanks anyway.
“The road is open!”
All the monsters in one direction were swept away by the breath and annihilated..
Elise ran to me, supported me, and shouted..
“Your Majesty, this way!”
***
When we managed to break through the siege and escape, the survivors of the World Defense Front were rushing to greet us..
He knew that a battle was taking place and was waiting..
“We need to escape this city immediately.!”
I shouted urgently.
“Other monsters are also a problem, but the two worst enemies of the Lake Kingdom are coming down to earth! Hurry before you get caught-”
However, was it a defeat to waste time breaking through the siege of monsters?.
Before I could finish speaking, a woman in a dress flew down from the sky... … It landed lightly between me and her colleagues..
“……!”
Beneath the cracked sky, flickering starlight was scattered around the woman..
As if it were not of this world, the ends of the pale white dress discolored black and sparkled disturbingly with the darkness of another world..
Beyond the pure white morning veil that covered the face... … I was familiar with it before, but now I see turquoise eyes that are devoid of human emotions..
I let out a trembling voice..
“……cotton.”
Perhaps an old friend will recognize my voice and return to the old days. With such vain expectations.
But, of course, that couldn't have been the case..
Sigh.-!
‘Black energy rushed into the hands of the sleepless lake princess and coalesced into the shape of a long sword, and the monster swung it vertically..
Taat-!
Sid rushed towards me and pushed me aside..
‘The blow fired by the 'Sleepless Lake Princess' barely passed me by, and the world where the sword's trajectory was headed... … Split from heaven to the ends of the earth.
The torn sky is pouring down, the cracked earth is falling apart.
can't win.
It wasn't like that in the first place..
The only thing that could kill her was within the Lake Kingdom, before she was completed as a monster. She escaped from the Lake Kingdom and became the culmination of all nightmares, and is literally invincible..
“We'll take our time, Your Majesty! escape!”
Elise, clutching the broken sword, urgently led the people..
“Sid, please take care of your majesty.!”
“……yes.”
Sid nodded quietly and supported me. I shouted urgently.
“What are you talking about, Elise! To escape together-”
“Your Majesty is the flag.”
Elise said, putting an ultramarine blue dagger in her mouth..
“Since this is a world like this, please show us until the last possible moment..”
“…….”
“I will leave this inspection to Your Majesty. The memories of those who fell first remain here..”
He pushed his sword towards me and then.
Elise glanced at me one last time with her complicated gaze, and then ran straight towards the 'Sleepless Lake Princess'..
“Wow-!”
“Stop the monster as much as possible!”
“dragging time-!”
All remnants of the World Defense Front shouted and rushed towards the enemy commander..
“Take it, my master's enemy.-!”
The dagger thrown by Elise for the last time did not leave any wounds on the body of the 'Sleepless Lake Princess'..
The next moment, after seeing Elise being blasted to pieces by black energy, I closed my eyes tightly and turned in the opposite direction..
While my men bought time with their lives, I escaped with the support of Sid, who was carrying the sword..
As has been the case for the past 15 years, once again…….
***
Is it because the sky split?.
No more ashes poured down. For some reason, Sid and I were crossing a white ice field under a clear night sky..
“Haha, haha, haha…….”
Sid let out irregular breaths..
We walked like that for a while, leaning on each other..
It was then. Suddenly a strong wind blew. Sid and I held each other and barely withstood the strong wind..
And once the strong wind stopped…….
“……!”
All the white ash covering the ice floe was cleared away..
The cleanly frozen plain reflected the clear night sky..
Starlight bloomed like a flower on the earth.
“Wow…….”
Forgetting the current situation, Sid let out an innocent, childlike exclamation..
“I don't think this is the right time to say this, Godfather. It's not beautiful?”
“……I know. It's really beautiful.”
I muttered as I looked at this scenery with Sid..
“It's like a flower field..”
“A flower garden? what is that?”
“A field full of flowers.”
After the world became like this, Sid, who had never seen a flower or a field, did not understand my words exactly, but.
“That flower field looks so pretty, too..”
He said that somehow, as if he knew something..
flutter.
Immediately afterwards, the seed collapsed. I quickly picked up the child and checked his condition..
“This……!”
There was a long stab wound on Sid's chest..
‘It seemed to be a wound suffered when she pushed me away from the attack of the 'Sleepless Lake Princess'. I've walked this far using magical sutures, but I've reached my limit because it's a wound that can't be healed..
When I looked back at the path we had walked, I saw blood drops dotted around. my face was distorted.
Did I walk all the way here, happily supported by my child, without knowing that my godson was hurt like this?.
“haha. I guess that's it for me.”
Sid, who was muttering with blood in my arms, looked at me with his sharp eyes..
“Do you regret it, godfather??”
“…….”
“Choice of the day... … regret it?”
I kept my mouth shut..
This was the conversation I had with Sid a while ago..
If you went to Nameless and killed her before the final defense battle began,.
‘If only the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ had been prevented from descending on Inse. Instead of giving up on the true ending, what if you got the normal ending you got in the game?.
I could have avoided seeing this worst future..
If that were the case, my people, and Sid, would have been able to live in a better world than we have now.…….
It was then.
“don't regret.”
“……!”
Sid continued calmly..
“Mom said that. Godfather is the one who fought to save the world. If my godfather wasn't there, the world would have been destroyed a long time ago..”
“…….”
“The path that everyone else in the world doubted, found difficult, and did not want to take... … You were willing to take the lead.”
“…….”
“Godfather, you followed the path you believed was right. If there is no shame in that choice... … don't regret.”
The child's young voice was filled with clear confidence..
“The reason my mother and others sacrificed their lives to follow my godfather... … I think it's because my godfather's path was right..”
“…….”
“So, considering the people who followed the godfather's banner... … Instead of regretting, fight until the last moment.”
I asked while looking into the child's eyes..
“……It's Sid. Weren’t you unhappy to be born in this world??”
Then Sid blinked quietly and looked up at the sky..
“Do you remember? This happened when I was very young. That day too, for some reason the sky was clear..”
A faint smile appeared on the lips of a child recalling long memories..
“Everyone went to play on the ash-filled hill near the hideout. He said he would give me a sleigh ride. I didn't even know what a sled was, so I followed along with excitement..”
“…….”
“They put me on the last remaining wheat sack, and Uncle Janis and Brother Damian took turns sitting behind me. We took a sled ride up and down the ash hill..”
Sid's face as he talks about his memories... … He had regained the innocent and cute appearance that a person his age would have..
“Master Diarmudin and Junior had been nagging us about having to teach magic lessons while the weather was clear, and before we knew it, they were waiting for their turn to go sledding together. Haha, at the end there is a competition to see which is faster, the fire sled or the wind sled..”
“…….”
“After having fun until the sun goes down, I come back and find dinner being prepared outside the hideout... … . I still remember it. What my mom said that evening. ‘The weather is nice today, so eat out! And she said, 'Let's have a special meal while we're eating out!'.”
Know.
everyone knows.
this world is hell.
“I'd be lying if I said it wasn't painful... … There were definitely happy moments.”
It's absurd, it doesn't make sense, and nothing goes as I want. Even though I struggle to overcome the hurdle in front of me, it still feels painful..
A hell that no one but an iron man can survive in..
But even in that world…….
“I loved those moments.”
The child remembers the moment shining like a star.
me too… … I remember.
Moments as beautiful as the flower garden made by weeds that bloomed in between all those difficult days..
Sid smiled brightly at me..
“It wasn't a bad life.”
I gritted my teeth..
I clenched my fists and widened my hot eyes..
And I also smiled at the child..
“Me too.”
We are living in this miserable landscape..
Even so, are you going to give up on the strategy??
……no.
“So, I won't regret it.”
The attack must continue.
Until the moment life stops.
“I'll fight.”
Trust the strategy I have set and follow it straight..
without giving up.
thud……!
At that time, someone landed on the other side of the ice field where Sid and I were..
Saaaaa…….
The final boss that spreads breathtaking morale, 'The Lake Princess Who Can't Sleep'’.
And that brother, the devil's representative, and the main culprit who made this world like this.
‘The Pied Piper’.
crown.
《That's it for now, Ash.?》
He muttered behind his black smiling mask..
《This nightmare lasted 15 years before it came to an end... … It's truly amazing spirit..》
okay.
And now I realize.
《Okay then… … Should I try it again?.》
“…….”
《The nightmare you fear most.》
This nightmarish world... … It is none other than Stage 49..
