Became the youngest disciple of God of War - Episode 161

161fury

While I was taking a moment to gather my thoughts, Leone gently pushed away my closed fist..

Then he smiled brightly as if he was waiting for my answer..

“…….”

What is this guy doing?.

By this time, we have already met three times..

Even though I don't know the inside story, it was enough times to know roughly what he was thinking and what he was moving for.…….

I still know very little about this guy..

So let's think simply for now..

‘Is it an enemy??’

Not really..

It was thanks to Leone's advice that Dean Alderson found out that he was a doll.…….

It was enough to surprise me, who had not yet realized my presence..

If they were real enemies in the first place, they would have had plenty of opportunities to do much more annoying things..

‘Are you an ally??’

However, it was difficult to nod my head to this question.

For some reason, I felt like the reason this guy was helping me was some kind of plot. At least it is not an action that comes from good intentions..

In other words, he is a guy you can trust right now..

“how to help?”

It would be better if this guy had his own plan. At least I won't stab you in the back until you achieve your plan..

Appropriate cooperation, appropriate vigilance.

These are perfect conditions for holding hands for a while..

“They're trying to save the dean.?”

“that's right.”

“Hmm.”

Leone's head was tilted. He was momentarily dazed by the sight of what seemed like a plan..

Is this guy planning a plan on the spot?.

His head tilted from side to side, his ink-like hair flowing gently..

I took a moment to notice the color of the hair..

In the Empire, black hair is in some ways a rarer color than red hair..

Burning red hair like Glenn's is rare, but reddish-brown or orange-colored hair is surprisingly common..

Representative examples include Arjan and Palm..

On the other hand, black hair is hard to find..

Badnicker's ancestor is a black fairy, so he often has black hair... … . Other than that, it means that it is a rare color that is difficult to find even across the continent..

‘And even bright red eyes like a rabbit.’

Black hair and red eyes.

Leone is the hardest to find in the Empire with two colors at the same time..

Is it just a coincidence that I was born with such characteristics??

or not…….

“good.”

Leone's lips softened and he cut off his thoughts..

“That's Khajitta, the commander of the Hellfire Corps. Among demons, he's quite the oddball..”

And suddenly, I realized that this guy spoke differently than last time..

It wasn't awkward.

That doesn't mean that this is his natural way of speaking, but it just felt like whatever speaking style suits him well..

“geezer?”

“A natural warrior? I can't say it's fair and square, but I prefer a one-on-one match..”

“The devil is unmanned?”

I laughed out loud at the nonsense. It was okay to say it was a laugh.

However, Leone responded without any sign of offense..

“If the two of them attack each other, they will literally be 'fiery' angry. I'll use my power to my heart's content, so we'll both be reduced to ashes in an instant..”

“Then what should we do?.”

“Let's share the burden. While one person takes charge of Kajitta, the other person takes charge of the dean. All you have to do is take some time. Since that demon is tied up in this dungeon anyway, all you have to do is run away after rescuing him..”

“…….”

It's a good operation..

If everything this guy says is true..

Let's pretend we're being fooled and proceed according to this guy's plan..

Then one thing is important.

“So who's going to fight that guy??”

Of course, it is much more difficult and dangerous to buy time against a big devil called the corps commander..

Leone will know that..

Of course, I plan to fight the devil whenever possible.…….

Separately, I’m curious about Leone’s intentions..

“you decide.”

Leone said with a smile.

“I don't care either way. Because it is a versatile body.”

“…….”

I didn't know it would come out like this.

I said with my arms crossed..

“The one who is more confident?”

“hmm. I guess it's probably about rescue, right? I'm confident in hiding my presence.”

Sreuk…….

As soon as she said those words, Leone's presence became faint. Even though it was right in front of me.

‘It seems like a ghost.’

I nodded..

“good. I'll take the devil.”

“Well thought out.”

Leone's eyes were slightly bent..

It's an ambiguous response..

They seemed to be happy with the unexpected reaction, or they seemed satisfied with the expected reaction..

I have a few questions about this guy.…….

You can ask questions after you find Dean Alderson..

“Well then, good luck.”

Leone waved his hand and then disappeared beyond the darkness of the dark dungeon..

When I looked at where Leone was, I realized one thing..

That guy is not a doll.

‘…hmm.’

First of all, this is it.

After clearing my mind, I looked directly at the corps commander named Khajitta and deliberately made a show of presence..

The closer you get, the more the smell of sulfur fills your nose..

Jeopuk-.

[…….]

I thought he was a guy with no facial features, but that wasn't the case..

Blue flame flickered inside the burning fire head, and it was writhing in the shape of eyes and a mouth..

It's not a certificate of reimbursement..

When I saw the fireworks, the sense that our eyes met came with certainty..

“…….”

Aside from that, I was momentarily distracted by the devil's flame..

I felt like I found a gem in an unexpected place..

[You…….]

This guy even knew how to talk.

[Are you here to save this old man??]

“…….”

I was so lost that I stopped one beat late..

‘you? old man?’

Am I talking to the devil right now??

“what are you?”

[… I am Kajitta, the commander of the Hellfire Corps. Due to circumstances, he is performing the role of gatekeeper of this prison. you?]

“…Luan Badniker.”

The moment I reflexively responded, Kajitta's flame flickered in a strange way..

Hwareuk-.

Feeling like your whole body is being swept away.

I felt a slight chill down my spine..

This is because I felt the unique, searching gaze of a master expert from this being with eyes of flame..

‘You're measuring my level.’

I feel like I'm going to laugh out loud.

devil unmanned.

Leone's words, which were dismissed as bullshit, now seem as clear as the truth..

[I feel the same presence in you as me..]

“I'm not the devil.”

[I am not talking about the unique presence of living things. It refers to the history and attributes accumulated as a warrior. You definitely have a spark like me. No, if you really ask me, is it closer to the sun?.]

“…….”

[But apart from that, the body is still developing. Too bad. I heard that human life is fleeting. Ten years… … . If it had ripened at least five more years, it would have been a good match..]

I smiled and replied.

“Your condition is not normal either..”

[It is an imperfect manifestation. I said that with that in mind..]

Kajitta looked at me and said as if declaring:.

[Young warrior, go back..]

“what?”

[It is my job to kill all intruders, but the position you are currently in is precarious. This means that you can pretend not to notice now..]

“…….”

How much does this devil intend to scare me?.

After seeing through my history at a glance, I put mercy in my mouth..

Suddenly, Dean Alderson's words about good devils came to mind..

I don't agree with that, but…….

Having seen this entity with my own eyes, I have to admit it..

Even the devil had a different kind..

“I'm sorry, but that won't work. That's it, so let's fight without leaving, devil unmanned man..”

[…do stupid things.]

This is the moment when Kajitta quietly recited.

Puhwaaaak!

Kajitta's flames spread widely as if hit by a strong wind. It seemed as if the candle flame had grown as large as a forest fire in an instant..

The air temperature heated up rapidly and a fever swirled..

“──.”

I felt like my sweat was drying up due to the intense heat..

I felt an uncomfortable heat in my eyes as well. Kajitta, who was emitting heat flames, seemed to have doubled in size with a body made of flames..

[Hellfire is a heat that even demons with resistance to flames cannot withstand. Young warrior, you can't even reach me now, let alone compete with me..]

“…….”

[I would recommend it again. Go away. It's still an early ordeal for you..]

It's not a lie.

Even I, who doesn't move in any amount of heat, even hesitated for a moment..

And it's true that he's a great guy, regardless of the craze that's coming..

‘I control the flame freely..’

Thanks to this, Dean Alderson, who was tied up right behind him, didn't seem to feel the heat..

This was despite the fact that heat was constantly being released, enough to melt the iron bars..

Then Leone?

Will that guy be able to grasp the flow of that heat and move to the vicinity of Dean Alderson??

‘…….’

I'll figure it out somehow.

I completely erased all thoughts of Leone and looked at the fire of hell as if I was possessed..

For some reason, the top of my head feels itchy..

The brain may seem soft, or it may seem like it is wriggling..

not unpleasant.

It was a little frustrating, but other than that, it didn't feel that bad..

“Does that mean you will admit it if it touches you??”

I muttered, feeling somewhat like a moth..

[Why are you urging me to do this?…….]

Jeopuk-.

I take a step forward with Kajitta’s words flowing through one ear. At the same time, she operated the first ball of Chloride.

Hwareuk, the feel of the power that occurred in Danjeon felt different than usual..

‘cold.’

I think it's because of Kajitta's hellfire..

Fresh and even more fun.

Naturally, I rarely felt cold inside..

thud.

one step at a time.

Walk with strength as if leaving traces on the floor.

At first glance, it may seem like a difficult step, but it is not..

The reason for the slow pace was internal..

The true energy in my body circulated as usual, and the moment a pleasant cool feeling rushed through my bloodstream, I suddenly realized the point of improvement in the use of the true energy..

It was an amazing experience.

A road that has passed decades.

Now, I felt like I had discovered a new element in a landscape that felt familiar and therefore boring..

[…What is this.]

When I took about five steps, Kajitta's empty voice reached my ears again..

I ignored it this time too.

Instead, I fully embraced the heat of hellfire..

I opened my half-open eyes due to the heat..

Flame seeps into my half-open lips..

My prayers burned brightly as if I had inhaled a flame..

But in the heat, my senses became sharper..

If you were dying of dryness in the middle of the desert, you would feel the touch of a drop of water on your skin more clearly..

It's like it's literally seeping into your body..

‘…ah.’

A miracle writhing inside.

I could feel each and every component, not just the flow..

To me, the true energy in my body was in the form of a flame, but I heard that for most people, it felt like a liquid..

In the first place, it would not be wrong to say that true energy, or mana, flows through the blood vessels..

If I were to be honest, I guess my senses are weird..

However, the realm of sensation is difficult to explain in words. That is until you experience it yourself..

‘This is what it felt like.’

I was finally able to understand the true nature of the body as water..

It was a valuable and special experience..

The charm I had always harbored was not a flame..

It was an energy with infinite possibilities that could change into anything..

This coldness, this coolness.

‘cold flame.’

An idea that suddenly occurred to me was deeply engraved in my heart..

It was a hint of inspiration that came suddenly..

The three stages of Chloride First Gong. I didn't think it was time to discuss it yet..

Wow!-.

The hellfire that was accepted burned the inside black..

[…….]

Before I knew it, the distance between me and Kajitta had narrowed to just one step..

I could see Kajitta's flames raging fiercely. It was like a bonfire in the rain..

I reached the source of the heat, but the intense pain disappeared. The First Duke of Flame had absorbed the hellfire and had adapted to some extent..

The coolness of the true energy inside my body began to feel like heat again..

I muttered, feeling regretful about that fact..

“…It's a bit lukewarm to be called hellfire..”

[…….]

“Can't you raise the temperature a little more??”
