I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 271

271fury

“Even the Corrupted branch? It takes at least ten days, and depending on the weather and other circumstances, it can take more than twenty days. Of course, nothing special will happen as the time is right..

Knock knock, knock knock.

Clap, clap, clap..

Ramon's voice mixed with the sound of horses' hooves clashing and wheels rolling is strangely lyrical..

When I looked over the carriage at the word ‘time’, it was clearly a spring day now..

When the sun was up, tired sunlight poured in, sprouts sprouted, and ants appeared when I looked blankly at the ground..

It was a perfect day to go on a picnic somewhere, but I felt uncomfortable when they said out loud that nothing special would happen..

‘please…….’

“If you say something like that, something happens..”

Lanfero must have had similar thoughts, so he expressed my thoughts as they were..

“Wow. My brother also said something unlucky…….”

“It's not your brother, it's the boss.”

“…….”

And I was at a loss as to what to make of this rather rare sight..

Ramon, a regular clan member, is sitting comfortably in the carriage, while clan leader Lanfero is sitting in the driver's seat and driving a horse..

I was curious as to why it was arranged like this, so I asked, and received an extremely reasonable answer..

“Wouldn't it be weird to see a goblin sitting in the driver's seat and driving a horse?.”

“ah.”

That's true.

A goblin driving a carriage... … . I don’t think I can easily take my eyes off a scene like that..

If you have an extreme temperament or a sense of unnecessary justice, you may draw your sword first..

Still, it felt like I was ignoring the hierarchical relationship, so I insisted that I would drive it, and Lanfero responded like this..

“I like driving carriages. Besides, this is a Sadhu chariot, right? When will I ever drive four horses again in my lifetime?.”

Except for his sloppy clothes, he looks like a nobleman, but this is his first time driving a four-legged carriage..

No. If you were a noble, wouldn't you be less likely to drive a carriage? I'm also a noble, but I'm not sure..

Even so, what clan leader in the world would take the initiative to take on chores just because he likes driving a carriage?.

Maybe the relationships in Corrupted are more horizontal than I thought. Including the clan leader, Lanfero..

Anyway, there was a minor problem at the merchant guild, but after that, the journey began peacefully without much fuss..

I leaned back against the carriage and looked at the faces of the people around me..

A goblin, a small giant, a church member pretending to be an inquisitor.…….

‘Even if I make up my mind and tell you to collect it like this, I won’t be able to do it..’

Ramon seemed to like the carriage, patting it here and there and admiring it..

“Hey. They say that the carriage luggage compartment is usually very uncomfortable, but this carriage is very comfortable. It feels like I'm sitting on a top-of-the-line sofa..”

“The road is still well paved, and the Chamber of Commerce also said that they gave the most expensive one..”

“oh my. thank you again.”

“I am more grateful. Thanks to this, I was able to buy a carriage like this at a bargain price..”

It's not a waste of money for a comfortable trip..

Especially on a trip like this, it was clear that I would often meditate or drive around, so if the carriage was in poor condition, I would have bought a good one at my own expense..

But thanks to Ramon, I was able to get a top-of-the-line carriage with almost no money left, so there was nothing bad for me..

“really… It's a nice carriage. Moreover, these horses are also an improved breed, so they can withstand the cold well and run well on icy roads..”

This is because it is a cold-blooded breed and is a utility horse..

It is a species that cannot be used as a racehorse, so its speed is relatively slow, but it is much larger and has better stamina than an ordinary horse..

Just by looking at it, it looks heavy and solid rather than sleek... No, it's a horse race..

“nice. Having just a wagon like this would make it incredibly convenient when receiving supplies or performing group missions..”

Ramon stroked the carriage with eyes dripping with honey, as if he was in love with some kind of carriage..

First of all, I am the owner of this carriage..

I was thinking of just handing it over to Ramon, but this goblin flatly refused..

Considering the situation, I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to lend the carriage to Corrupted or even give it to them..

First of all, it is a matter of deciding based on the overall atmosphere of the clan..

“Other than that, there are no special precautions on this trip.?”

“You don't have to worry too much until you get out of the east. It will probably take six to ten days, but there are cities, villages, and places to camp along the way. The night is still cool, so I'll have to light a fire and keep watch..”

“What happens after that??”

“If nothing happens, you will enter the snowy field. Have you ever been to the North??”

young master.

Ramon called me that out of the blue...

The names that came to mind were Kayan and Arjan. What are those two doing now??

I'm sure both of you are doing well..

These two guys did their job well in Badknicker, so it's only right for me to worry about my future now..

“It's my first time going. I've heard it a lot, but.”

“what did you hear?”

“Isn't it funny how cold it is all year round? They say that if you spit, it turns into a piece of ice before it even hits the ground..”

“Puhahaha!”

“That's a gross exaggeration..”

Ramon and Mir burst into laughter..

I also laughed because it was one of those stupid jokes I heard during my Southern days..

And he kept spouting nonsense to lighten the mood..

“Other than that, if you make a mistake, you'll be surrounded by snow trolls, or there's still a living water dragon at the bottom of a glacier lake, or if you feel warm while wandering in a snowstorm and look down, the skin on the soles of your feet has fallen off.…….”

“Hehe… It's a scary place…….”

“It's your hometown.”

Mir, who was making stupid noises, seemed to be in better condition than I thought..

Rather than feeling discouraged, I felt like I was quietly accumulating anger and motivation, which is a positive thing..

According to Ramon, it takes up to 20 days to get to the north..

That's 20 days, but 20 days of travel can be almost a month's worth of fatigue..

If you spend that period crying, worrying, or burning hatred, you will be mentally pushed to your limit when you get there..

In that case, it is better to be a fool at all..

After being a fool for a while, the condensed hatred and anger explodes when you meet the enemy..

‘This is easier said than done.’

Emotions are emotions because they cannot be controlled by oneself..

So I found Mir amazing..

“What are you looking at, nun??”

Mir looked at Verita and asked.

Maybe it's because he doesn't use polite language very often, but when he talks to Verita, his tone becomes particularly strange..

Does it seem like a lie when you show your fighting spirit in front of the feed?.

Verita, who was reading the document, smiled slightly and answered..

“This is the content of this request. I plan to organize it after reading it..”

“That's right.”

“If you're bored, would you like to read the scriptures??”

“Okay, it's okay.…….”

“That's a shame.”

I checked the contents of my backpack and found a cookie from De Marlin Refreshment Shop rolling around inside..

As I put the remaining piece in my mouth and chewed it, Mir asked:.

“What are you eating??”

“cookie.”

“omg. Give it to me too.”

“What I just did was the last one?”

“Unbelievable…….”

Mir, who was in despair, felt sorry for me and said to Berita..

“Rasbet, if you have any leftover cookies, please give them to me..”

“…….”

Verita, who was calmly flipping through documents, paused for a moment and said:.

“sorry. I already ate it all.”

“okay? That's right, Mir. I want to eat beef jerky?”

“Give it!”

I threw the jerky into Mir’s mouth as he opened his mouth..

And after a while, the carriage became quiet as Mir began to take a nap..

“…….”

Traveling is usually accompanied by silence like this..

The overall lively and chattering atmosphere continued, but at some point, it became quiet as if everything had come together, and that was the case now..

Ramon took out something like an abacus and a statement and started doing some calculations, while Verita was still checking the mission-related documents..

I also had nothing to do, so I thought I should read something, but when I thought about it, the only book I had was The Book of Heavenly Evils..

While I was thinking about it, I decided to read it again..

Last time, I felt like it was difficult to treat the book as a book because my emotions were fluctuating due to the cruel content..

My thoughts were not wrong. I still felt anger and pity, but I was able to read the book much more calmly than last time.…….

I was able to accept the content with a somewhat objective perspective..

Since I had read the book once, the reading speed itself wasn't that slow, but the problem came after I finished reading the book..

“……?”

I saw this in a book for the first time.

At first, I thought I had forgotten something, but no. No matter how many times you read it, it seems like it's not a sentence you've read before, but a phrase you're reading for the first time..

In other words, new content was clearly added to Cheonaktanseo..

I was a little embarrassed, but it was a strange object to begin with, so there was nothing strange about it..

I noticed the new additions.

[Can only evil be born in the abyss of evil??]

[Realize the importance of the environment.]

[I also ignored numerous tragedies for my own sake. He lived a life no different from that of an animal, prioritizing only hunger, survival, and the most primal desires..]

[This may be a late review.]

[But someday, when I look back on my own steps in the twilight of my life, I hope that I will think at least once:.]

[I'm glad I regretted it even then.]

I felt a little uncomfortable.

For some reason, the feeling was quite different from the book I read before..

‘The speaker has changed..’

The handwriting also changed, and I soon found out who had written the new content..

It's Cheon's private residence..

Of course, it was a little different from the sister-in-law's handwriting I remembered..

It was rough rather than elegant, but somehow I thought that the Sister Cheon I knew when I wrote this book might have been quite different from the Sister Cheon I knew..

[My origins are extremely lowly, and my roots are also tainted by evil. The whole world gathered together to disparage me, probably because my personal history was not important to them..]

[There was a time when I was almost broken by such a storm..]

[I thought that if Kangho defines me as a demon who will cover the sky, I will gladly become that..]

[Have the gazes of those arrogant people who call themselves Baekdo ever touched the cold snowy mountains??]

[When one thousand and seven hundred and twenty-seven children had their eyes gouged out, their tongues cut out, their eardrums torn out, and eventually even their sense of touch disappeared from their whole bodies, and we cried for salvation through this throat that had swallowed only rotten food, our cries. did they hear?]

[didn't hear.]

[Maybe you didn't listen.]

[So when one thousand seven hundred and twenty-seven became nine hundred and fifty-nine, when nine hundred and fifty-nine became five hundred and forty-six, when five hundred and forty-six became two hundred and one, and when two hundred and one became ninety-nine.…….]

[…Until ninety-nine became one, their eyes never once looked towards the depths of hell..]

[I resented and hated.]

[Even though I killed all the evildoers who brought hell to me, the pain in my heart did not go away..]

[Is it because murder cannot be a requiem?.]

[So how can we soothe the souls of 1,726 children?.]

The handwriting was particularly difficult to read in this part, and it took quite a while to read and understand as it was not a familiar character..

Not only was it rough, but it looked extremely confused, as evidenced by Sister Cheon's emotional state at the time..

[Wandered aimlessly around the world.]

[It was a journey with no destination or place to return to..]

[But what is the meaning of a journey that cannot be seen, heard, or felt? By losing all five senses, I acquired six senses, which were more sensitive than anyone else's, but this was too much power for a purposeless ronin..]

[Then there would be no meaning in life.]

[Am I really alive??]

[At some point, I came to think of myself as a ghost. He is an evil spirit wandering this world without even realizing that he is already dead..]

[In fact, maybe I also had to die under that cold snowy mountain. With my brothers and sisters who had the same fate as me.]

[If that were the case, a monster devoured by hatred and resentment would not have been born..]

[It was a natural consequence that the next thought would lead to death..]

[And there is only one place in the world where I will die.]

“…….”

I turned the pages in silence.

[On my way back to the snowy mountains, I passed a village..]

[It was a village with no life at all, but signs of rotting blood and flesh could be felt from the entrance..]

[As we entered the center of the village, there was an altar made of human bones. Dozens of children were tied naked on this unclean altar. Only then did I understand the situation..]

[It was the scene of a ritual held by a cult..]

[Surprisingly, they also called themselves demonic religions. It can be said to be a derivative religion that has the same roots as the Heavenly Demon Church, but uses different methods..]

[I overturned the ritual and annihilated the cultists. It was the moment when I was about to leave again, covered in blood. I felt a soft hand grabbing my collar..]

[He was just a child of about eight or nine years old..]

[In the eyes of a child who had just escaped death, a desire for life was still visible..]

[Like the children who passed away in vain under the snowy mountain, or like the me I once was.…….]

[At that moment, I felt as if I had suddenly been freed from all the restraints that had bound me. I realized at the same time.]

[It is a time when righteousness and cooperation have fallen to the ground. Under the already dead sky, were we the only ones crying??]

[In the end, I realized that even my feelings of resentment towards the world were born from narrow-mindedness..]

[…It's just that the kite didn't reach it..]

[Suddenly this thought occurred to me.]

[If the gaze of the white sword is directed to the people's livelihood in the world, and the gaze of the sword is directed to the battlefield named Gangho... … . Isn't magic the only thing that can save those wandering down the road to hell??]

[Shouldn’t I be a kite to those who have fallen into the pit of evil, at the bottom of hell, where even their sobs are swallowed up by blood?.]

[Because only those who have been through hell can understand it..]

handwriting.

Around this time, I realized that Sister Cheon's handwriting had returned to the form I knew..

If so, it would be at this moment that the personality of Sister Cheon, who had been wandering, was completed..

[I'll say it again.]

[My origins are low, and my roots are also riddled with evil..]

[However, if I, who was born as an evil person, for an evil purpose, and for an evil world, can establish righteousness and cooperation without being broken by it, wouldn't that be the greatest revenge on those who played a role in my life??]

[Therefore, I will not abandon the name Heavenly Demon..]

[I hope that those who kidnapped the young Cheon will shed tears of blood when they one day find out about my actions in the afterlife.…….]

[…I swore to walk the path of salvation in the name of Cheonma..]
