31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 514)
Snowfall caught sight of the fallen Kaira..
A demon who could not escape from lies until the moment of death.
If Snow Seol is truly the father of the horses, it was Kyra who made him realize that child farming does not always work out well..
Slurp…
The snowfall touched the light that stayed by Kyra's side..
[‘The legacy of ‘Kaira’ begins..]
……
Snowfall instantly returned to Kaira's point of view before she died..
His breath, his heartbeat, even his thoughts were all of Seol Seol's at this moment..
Turbid, painful flow.
‘Dangerous.’
Dangerous.
‘It's dangerous….’
This guy is dangerous!
Kyra's senses were heightened..
The man in black did not lose his composure. Kyra has always had the advantage in all her battles..
Because I avoided fighting with those stronger than myself and only fought battles where I was sure of victory..
I'm not cowardly.
It's clever.
fit-!
‘I got caught!’
The straight sword, slightly longer than a dagger, was imbued with Charlie's deadly venom. In just a few seconds, if it penetrates the heart, the opponent will collapse..
Suddenly…
‘…cut off my arm?’
In fights against those who wielded poison, warriors often cut off the extremities of their bodies..
However, I have never experienced a case where it was cut so indifferently, without any concern or distortion..
Are you happy that your opponent is a strong enemy?.
Is it fortunate that the opponent is a strong enemy?.
no.
Kyra was afraid..
Until now, I have never faced anyone stronger than myself..
‘Why isn't it there?!’
There was, obviously.
therefore… You must have become this strong.
‘…When was it??’
It's quite old.
Probably, it was a time in the past when I enjoyed adventure..
I haven't fought like that since I got blood on my hands..
Wow!-!
“Kehehe….”
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Kang Seol could feel how Kyra fought with him. Although she seemed confident, she seemed intimidated and had some regrets..
However, that did not mean that he was reflecting on his past evil deeds. I just regret not being stronger.
Fear begins to grow in Kyra's heart..
To reject physical pain that is encroached upon by violence. It made snowfall feel like a merciless monster..
Tsuzzzzzzzz…
The snowy eyes that Kaira looks at transform into dragon blood eyes..
Dragon Blood Eyes can steal the opponent's memories when the opponent feels fear. It's a good thing he didn't forget and glimpsed Kyra's memories along the way; if he had been emotional, he would have murdered him without getting anything from Kyra..
“wrong… I did it… yo. this….”
My vision becomes dark..
Extremely lonely and cold, death approaches.
[‘I inherited the legacy of Kaira..]
[Passing on the powers of the dead.]
[Continuous: Carnage takes over.]
[You Continue: Carnage Inherits.]
[The effectiveness of the ability increases with the crow's job effect..]
[The effect of the ability increases due to the constitution effect of the ghost's hand..]
……
[Continuation: Massacre]
- When the opponent's total ability is lower than your total ability, the damage suffered by the opponent increases by 20%..
“…like.”
- In fact, it's a 20% bonus lol.
- Comparing based on total ability? lol
- The fact that this doesn't work seems like a fear in itself.
Kyra displayed quite useful abilities. Her sustained ability is more good than more good..
In particular, when it reached the level of snowfall, it was normal for the number of times normal abilities were used to decrease noticeably..
click…
Snowfall carrying the main dog on Kyra’s belt..
He briefly considered using it himself, but then shook his head..
This is what Charlie left to Sally. It is a means of becoming stronger that her older brother left behind for his younger sister's future..
‘It's something I don't really need right now..’
Now he is not so weak that he has to rely on things Charlie has created..
The fact that Charlie himself is using the item that even Snow Seol is interested in also plays a role..
Two pieces of information found in Kyra's memories. One is where are Charlie's items that Kyra stole, and the other is who gave him the job..
‘I guess I can tell Sally. As for the latter… It was as expected.’
The rotten raccoons of Seongguk, the culprits of the incident, were still alive and well. You will see them soon.
‘What should I do next?….’
The other party also realized that there was someone behind Shin Min's movements..
“In the end, is it a head-on collision?….”
food…
food…
Snowfall looked up at the sky.
A hawk and a dove were flying in the sky from opposite directions at the same time.
They both had notes tied to their ankles, which made Kang Seol feel uneasy..
food…
The hawk landed on dead Kyra's shoulder and the dove landed on Snowfall's shoulder..
pot-!
beep-!
Snow Seol steals the note from the hawk and confirms it with the news brought by the dove..
Some of the contents of the two messages were the same..
The words emergency and intelligence were mixed together..
crispy…
Kang Seol crumpled the note and muttered..
“I guess I'll have to go straight to Baranoa..”
* * *
Two days after the message was delivered to Kang Seol, the number of citizens protesting in the square actually increased..
“Come out now!”
“Don't hide! We have to reveal it in detail!”
“I'm just going to hide like this until things calm down.!”
The disappearance of citizens continued even during protests. It would not have been surprising if the protests turned into riots, but the cathedral had made a promise..
Today, Pope Daemon of Baranoa will appear in person to quell the anger of his subjects..
Since it is a sacred nation, Pope Daemon has the most authority other than God, the master of faith..
Everyone was eagerly awaiting his appearance. What explanation will you give? No, are all the rumors surrounding Baranoa true?.
Puhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
The sound of wind instruments creating a sacred atmosphere rang out, and an old man dressed in a vest appeared on the second floor of the cathedral..
“Holy Pope! Praise!”
“…….”
“…….”
A quiet square.
“tea, cold….”
“stop.”
Hearing Daemon's words, the archbishop hurriedly retreated and bowed his head..
No one praised the Pope's power. The dissatisfaction of the subjects reached a critical point..
Just before it explodes.
Now is the moment.
Daemon began his speech in a calm voice, as if he wasn't afraid of that..
“Subjects of the Holy Kingdom, we seem to be going through great confusion right now..”
“…….”
“Those possessed by the devil are trying to destroy Baranoa by shaking the hearts of the foolish..”
The old, drooping eyelids stare at the subjects..
“What's the problem? whatever… The Holy Kingdom has become more vibrant than ever and the restoration of its divinity is on track..”
The Pope said, as if he really didn't know what to say..
“We will prosper. But somehow everyone looks angry..”
At that time, a woman from the slums who lost her child in a disappearance incident spoke in tears..
“kid… what happened to my child!”
“…kid?”
“You guys hid it ahhh!”
“Please pray. Then….”
“Shut up uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuux!”
“…….”
Daemon looked at the woman with surprised eyes. The woman lost her mind.
“Does prayer feed you? If you look down from there and say something proudly, do you think I will bow my head? My child... my child….”
“Hmm….”
The Holy Knights flinched..
When he seemed to be concerned about the Pope's authority and was about to act, Daemon raised one hand to stop him..
“Let me say what I want to say.”
“…yes.”
As if that was the catalyst, the topic of Baranoa's darkness is raised..
“Sophia! They say he hid a girl named Sophia.?”
“Bring on Sophia!”
Daemon listened quietly and gestured..
“I really….”
“Okay, bring it to me..”
After a while, Sophia appeared on the podium..
Cheolgruguk…
iron ring around the neck.
And the chain connected to it.
As I pulled the chain, Sophia brought her head closer and frowned..
“This is the Sophia you love so much.”
“…….”
“Yes, some people will be shocked. The term “artificial god” sounds grand, but in the end, it is nothing more than a piece of cold metal. Now, do you understand??”
“that… Still, isn’t it wrong? They say it causes pain!”
“you're right.”
Daemon told only the truth.
“Release me! That's fine then!”
“How can you be so cruel when you feel pain?….”
The Pope grins..
“There are two options.”
“…select?”
“If there are 100 subjects willing to endure suffering on Sophia's behalf, Sophia will be free from suffering..”
“that… What are you talking about!”
“No one has to suffer! no one!”
“…Then I'll give you another option..”
another option.
“We will have to give up the divinity that Sophia creates. All god-powered infrastructure will come to a halt, and Baranoa's abundance will never return. Of course, taxes should also be raised..”
“…….”
“So, which would you choose? At best, this is a girl, and a machine that isn't even human... Wouldn't it be okay to throw them into pain??”
be silent.
Everyone is silent.
At that moment, the artificial god Sophia speaks.
“…I am okay.”
“…….”
“If you're happy, that's it.”
Silence continues..
Subjects begin to rationalize.
“See, if you don't mind….”
“It can't be helped... I guess it is.”
“Because I chose it myself….”
Daemon laughs..
“you guys are… Is this a good person??”
“…….”
“You're just not particularly bad. Moderately selfish and moderately hypocritical... Such beings.”
He laughs until his mouth breaks.
“Hehehehe… It's truly nauseating. Repent... repent….”
“Hey, shut your mouth! The most important issue now….”
Slurp…
Daemon's eyes and Sophia's eyes begin to turn red..
“It is a day of repentance. Insects covered in human skin. Repent for the evil within you... wake up god.”
“Whoa, snow….”
“Wow!!”
Whioooooooooooo…
Visible red energy is scattered in all directions. it creates the wind.
“Welcome the new god, who brought you to this earth... the true god!”
“Ta, the ground shakes!”
“Damage! collapses!”
Daemon didn't stop talking..
“The Beginning Comes….”
“Hehehehe….”
“big… 100 million….”
Subjects grabbing their necks.
A red thread started from Sophia and connected all the subjects of the capital city of Tetra..
Giiiiiiing-
something is happening.
coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo…
The floor of the square where the subjects were away cracked..
Jeokjeok…
Damn it…
Something rose from below.
[A strong deterrent occurs around you..]
[Your break will temporarily end.]
[The adventures of all adventurers in Tetra will be changed to ‘Repentance Day’..]
……
* * *
Kugugugugung Palace…
“Has it started?….”
“Tsk tsk… I wanted to see it in person.”
“It's a historic moment.”
People surrounding a man are talking.
the cardinal said to the man.
“Chief Inquisitor Midar, you decide..”
“…….”
“Will you follow or will you die?.”
Interrogator Batung sneered..
“You can refuse. No, I want you to refuse..”
“…….”
“I want to change that arrogant face right now..”
Midar finally learned everything. There is someone who is far away and scary behind them. that everyone is obsessed with them.
If you serve the fearful, your life will be preserved. You will gain more strength.
“I have served Baranoa all along..”
“okay. You were an obedient sword, you.”
“I was obsessed. In this land of light, to those who smile.”
“…….”
Midar declares..
“I now realize that I was neither a soldier loyal to the country nor an apostle loyal to God..”
He gets down on one knee..
“My life was a subject's. Their sword and spear of light. Now, let me resign from my position as chief interrogator..”
“…The conclusion is disappointing..”
Midar finally makes a decision..
“Baranoa! That's all.”
“Are you saying you want to die??”
“…I will fight!”
Giiiiiiing-
His sword was imbued with a brilliant light..
[Midarga uses Season: Holy Rift.]
[Forms a crack that deals holy damage in a certain range, causing an explosion..]
……
“Ughhh….”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
A big hole opens.
Midar wasn't there..
“Chase! The guy ran away.”
“Kick… I will kill you today….”
Papapot-!
The three interrogators hurried after Midar..
Paaaat-!
Paaaaat-!
Midar flew from roof to roof. A red hemisphere surrounds the tetra.
Subjects were lying down, connected to an unidentified red line..
Midar bit his lip and sprinted away..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The interrogator who caught Midar rolled around on the floor with him..
“caught….”
Pushuuuuk-!
The rapier created a hole in the interrogator's neck..
“Ugh….”
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Midar takes advantage of the gap and quickly escapes..
Whirling…
The hole created in the interrogator's neck was filled in an instant..
“Hehehe… I won't die with a skewer like that..”
there is no hope.
Even if you defeat those three here, the situation won't change much..
But Midar remembered his promise..
‘Soon… here….’
The one who jumps to the meeting place.
but…
‘…doesn't exist?’
There were no pilgrims, no witches, no Grease and no snowfall..
‘why… ah!’
The red hemisphere covering the tetra.
that was the problem.
Midar stopped, standing close to the outer wall of the hemisphere..
“Have you given up? Hehehe….”
“It's useless, your beliefs are useless. midar.”
“It's not something that can be solved by going on a rampage alone. Look around, see if there's even one person on your side. You stubborn guy..”
“In the end, that stubbornness is what gets you killed..”
“…….”
Midar turned around with his mouth tightly shut and placed his hand on the scabbard..
Cheolgruguk….
“If you're thinking of fighting….”
at that time.
thud…
thud…
A vibration was felt behind Midar..
and.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The corner of the red exterior wall collapsed with a loud noise, revealing the entire view..
Midar had an expression on his face..
A bright smile that is close to joy.
“…It will never be a lonely fight.”
Tuk-tuk…
Snowfall dusted herself off and came in and said:.
“Things rarely go as expected..”
“midar!”
“Interrogator!”
Sally and Chameli have been kind to Midar. After that, the choir and the witches, who were the only ones supporting the pilgrims, were seen..
frustrating power difference.
But strangely enough, I wasn't anxious.
For what reason, Midar did not know..
“Grizz, it looks like something is wrong with Sofia..”
“It's okay, it's my daughter's fault. As a father, I can solve it..”
“…Is it my father?.”
I pondered over those strangely haunting words and looked at the road leading to the snowy cathedral..
honest feelings.
“That's shit.”
“Kahaha! I know!”
“It looks like it's already gotten serious..”
Karen and Karuna also agreed with Kang Seol’s opinion. Tetra faced an unprecedented crisis..
“So, even if I add at least one person, no one will have anything to say. midar.”
“…….”
“I'm going to fight?”
nod…
Midar nodded firmly..
Upon hearing that answer, a tremendous amount of energy began to radiate from Kang Seol’s body..
Whioooooooooooo…
[Snowman uses Power: King of Shadows.]
[The Snowman's shadow is alive.]
[His shadow acts with will like a living creature..]
[His shadow evolves into endless inspiration.]
[The moment the living shadow begins to act, all of Snowman's abilities are enhanced..]
[No one can approach the King of Shadows without permission..]
[A living shadow protects the Snowman.]
[The intensity of the shadow is proportional to the level of the snowman..]
……
“What, what….”
Everyone around was startled and retreated around the snowfall..
Snowfall put her hands together.
Wow!-!
food deukdeuk…
[Season: Uses an army of crows.]
[Season: The power contained in the darkness is divided according to the number of creatures..]
[The greater the power divided, the more abilities the crow soldiers can use..]
……
Whirly Whirly…
An army of dozens of crows rose up..
Karen and Karuna also stood on either side of the snowfall and placed their swords on the ground..
[Karen uses Discipline: King's Knight..]
[Karuna Discipline: Uses the King's Knight.]
……
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Power soaring in an instant.
Midar finally saw with his own eyes the reality of the strange sense of stability he had been feeling..
“…you.”
Kang Seol squinted at him and then grinned..
“Push it all away.”
