I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 330
330fury
The other day I had a conversation with Verita about the following:.
- The fact that you contacted me, other believers know?
- That's right.
- How many people do I know?.
- There are ten people including me..
According to Verita, among the colorless believers, there are at least ten who know my identity..
The reason it is set as the minimum is because there is no guarantee that those who heard that Verita told 10 people will not spread the word..
And from here on, it's completely speculation.…….
I wondered if that boy was one of those ten..
A person with skills approaching that of an S-class hero would be an elite even among the colorless believers..
Perhaps he is a person of equal status to Verita on campus..
‘I don't know what's going on…….’
Anyway, I thought it was a good thing I hid the instrument..
I feel like I got it right?
It was originally a choice to deceive Verita, but if I hadn't done that, I think I might have been caught by that kid..
“Ugh… I killed them all again... … . Why am I so pathetic?…….”
While the kid left alone mutters like a crazy person... Another figure appeared beneath Ymir's mouth hole..
This character also has a very unique appearance that is not inferior to the hunter boy..
Tuk, Tuk, Tuk…….
Crinkled wrinkles that seem to be flowing down, a waist bent like a hook, and a hooked nose... … . From what I saw up to this point, she was an old woman who was old enough that it wouldn't be surprising if she died soon..
The staff in your hand is not designed to support an old body..
It was thick enough that it wouldn't be strange to swing it with a blunt weapon, and it was dark as if it had been scorched by fire..
Add to that the cone-shaped hat on the head, and one word naturally crossed my mind..
‘witch?’
The old woman, who clearly looked like a witch, smiled and said.
“root… Was it you? Leisurely hunting down idiots is this old man's little joy, how dare you ruin it?.”
“Well, that's not hunting.…….”
The boy called Root spoke in a slightly tearful voice, perhaps because he also had an identity despite belonging to Frozen Hunt..
“If you can kill them right away but don't finish them off, it's not hunting, it's just entertainment... … . They say that in the islands, animals are released into the park to enjoy hunting, but that is an insult to us.…….”
“shut up. I'm not interested in your thoughts on hunting. Whatever you say, I'll consider this a hunt.”
“Take it, cancel it……!”
“hate.”
“Wow…….”
Root, who was scratching his head, pulled the bowstring and shouted, as if he was going crazy..
“I want you to cancel.!”
Is he crazy??
It wasn't just a pretend, the arrow actually flew..
What was even more surprising was the witch's attitude; she was not embarrassed at all and just snorted and tapped the ground with her wand..
Kwagagak,
At that moment, a wall of ice rose from the ground and blocked the arrow..
I thought it was too much of a response, but…….
Kwazisig!
The arrow that was fired almost pierced the 1 meter thick ice wall..
Destructive power as if fired from a siege ballista rather than a bow..
There is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Root was already running right after pulling the bowstring, and he skilfully climbed over the ice wall and then struck the witch with his dagger held in reverse..
The witch's response was simple.
reaching out.
Are you really going to stop it with those fern-like palms??
Wow-!
At that moment, the outstretched arm stretched out like a snake and became split like an old tree..
The fingernails even grew like tree roots, and the body of the root that came close was instantly entangled in the roots..
Squeak.
However, while Root was tied up, he cleverly cut the tree roots into pieces..
There was no blood flowing from the torn old tree, but the tree extending from the arm was suddenly separated from the old woman's hand..
“Ho ho ho… … . It's sharper than when I saw it..”
The moment the giggling old woman took a step forward.
“Of course, I like being young.”
A surprising change has occurred.
With the first step, my bent back straightened..
In two steps, my once white hair became voluminous..
In three steps, the wrinkles on my face disappeared..
“…….”
A being who changed from an old woman to a woman in an instant, her face seemed somewhat familiar..
Where did you see it??
I paused for a moment and focused on the characteristics of being a witch.…….
‘-ah.’
Then, I remembered a meeting I had attended along with Sanghyeolgong in the islands..
middle name.
A meeting of strategic weapons that are treated specially even in the empire.…….
Among those scary-looking people, there was a woman who looked at me with eyes that were somehow annoying..
A woman who dressed like a witch and had pretty boys as servants..
I didn't even hear her name, but it was definitely the woman I saw back then..
I was once again dumbfounded..
No way, my middle name was a church member.?
Of course, colorless believers cannot be treated as church members at all, but that does not dilute the level of surprise..
At the same time, the empire collapsed... I also got the feeling that.
“Shall we stop here? We didn't come this far to fight among ourselves..”
The witch said with a smile.
The way he speaks is completely different from when he was an old man..
The sharp root responded in a timid voice..
“So, are you canceling the insult to hunting??”
“Yes, yes. I'll cancel. So let’s get angry.”
“Phew…….”
Root sighs deeply and then laughs brightly..
“Well, I'm glad we didn't fight..”
“…If you were ugly, it would be okay to just end it, but I love all beautiful things. love and peace.”
“But why did he look like an old man??”
“To always be thankful for my beautiful appearance.”
“yes?”
“[If you eat the high-quality cookies from [De Malin Refreshment Shop] every day, you're bound to get sick of them. Sometimes you have to try moldy bread..”
“…Dorothy is really strange..”
“I won't deny it, but hearing it from you makes me a little angry.?”
The woman's name was Dorothy.
It seems like a very cheap name for a witch, but it's not really anything to do with it..
Anyway, I was worried that my hiding would be discovered since they are both quite capable people, but judging by their attitude, it seems that was not the case..
By the way, what business did those two people have come to Ymir’s remains??
Could it be that they are plotting something else using those remains??
‘Are they crazy? really.’
Even neighborhood cats don't wander around the same area for a while if they get caught stealing food, but these kittens don't know how long it has been since they had an accident before they started crawling out of Ymir's body again..
It was then.
“What business did you two come here for??”
Someone fell from the sky with a calm voice..
Distinctive painted hair and jet-black livery as an Inquisitor…….
There is probably no other person other than Verita who has dressed up like that..
Dorothy laughed when Verita appeared..
“I was late to pick you up. What are you doing now? You were bored so you played with the rats for a while..”
“I had work to do.”
“okay? Your eyes would have noticed our approach long ago..”
“My pupils are not such a convenient force. Because I've been spending a lot of my mental energy recently, I wasn't able to confirm the presence of the two of you..”
“aha.”
Dorothy shrugged..
“Well, that aside. You probably know why we came.?”
Berita gave her a look without responding, and only then did Dorothy wipe the smile from her face..
“The leader ordered a shift. So, you go back to your main school. We'll take over your duties.”
“Did you send two security guards for that purpose??”
“that's right. Well, I didn't even know I had reached the route until I came here..”
Berita was silent for a moment and then said:.
“Not yet.”
“…Mr. Verita?”
“I'm going to disobey the leader's orders now.?”
“Let me write a report. If the leader finds out about my situation, he will change his mind..”
“You sound interesting. Did you mistake me for a messenger??”
“That's not true, but I said it in a way that could be misleading. sorry.”
“Hmm.”
Dorothy giggled with interest and said:.
“You're disobeying the leader's orders and you'll die... … . It's fun. Let's ask first. how much more time do we need?”
“one month.”
“Hahaha.”
Dorothy burst into laughter, placed her index finger on her temple, and twirled it..
“Are you crazy? Think before you spit it out. Isn’t it true that there is no water flowing in your head instead of brain fluid??”
“…….”
“Finished within an hour. I can't wait any longer.”
“Let's do it smuiahre..”
“one hour and ten minutes.”
“twenty days.”
“one hour and twenty minutes.”
“…….”
As expected, the crazy ones were right..
They say that was also a negotiation, but the time was shortened without giving the slightest compromise, but it didn't seem to have any nutritional value..
Is his original personality slowly coming out?.
Something similar to a mockery began to form on the corner of Berita's mouth..
“Sister Dorothy, I don't think you understand my job correctly. I understand that this is an area that is difficult for laymen to understand. So let me be clear. As a priest of the 72nd religion, I have been ordered to purify the instruments within this fluid. It is a task that must be done over a very long time and with great care. It's impossible to throw it away midway..”
“If it's an instrument purification mission, either of us can take over. There won't be any more heroes who can access this body anyway, right? Because you would have blocked Heros' entrance with the authority of a priest of the 72nd Church..”
Saying that, Dorothy cast her gaze at the blood on the snowy field that had not yet dried..
“That's why idiots like this get screwed..”
“…….”
“You even make such lame excuses... … . No matter how much I think about it, it's not like you. Something's starting to catch me.”
Dorothy held her cane in the air and pushed it with her finger..
The cane, which had been falling down weakly, stopped when it fell halfway, and Dorothy placed her butt on top of it..
Dorothy sat on her cane, crossed her legs, rested her chin on her chin and grinned..
“I guess we have no choice but to solve it our way. What should we do??”
“If that's the only way, there's nothing you can do..”
“good. As usual, the rule is that whoever loses one of the limbs loses, and since the route is the same as mine, it will be a two-on-one battle. There will be no complaints?”
What to cut?
I was picking my ears, wondering if I heard something wrong, but Verita nodded as if she understood, and Root also hesitated and spoke..
“Well, I don't want to fight, but if this is the leader's will, I can't help it... … . I will cut it as painlessly as possible.……!”
This time, it was that little boy who moved first, with a voice I didn't want to hear..
The dwarf body seemed to become slightly blurred, then appeared again from behind Verita..
It was a similar movement to when he instantly killed the grave robber, but I think that could also be some kind of power like divine protection..
It was a surprise attack that was difficult to deal with, but the opponent was not a grave robber or anything..
Heretic Questioner Verita's eyes did not miss the route..
Before I knew it, I was blocking Root's attack with the mace in my hand, and then I swung it as he was throwing it away..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The white snow field turned upside down and an artificial snowstorm raged for a while..
Of all the guys I know, the one with the strongest physical strength is probably Mir Giant.…….
Verita's strength, as she wielded that large and vicious mace as if it were a feather, did not seem unusual..
What's surprising is that Root blocked that devastating blow with his wrist..
It may be an art that can only be achieved with basic physical durability and mana management, but it is clear that that sub-arm is also an extraordinary weapon..
However, as if the power of the mace was not eliminated, Root's small figure flew into the sky..
It was Dorothy who attacked as if replacing her..
Whioooooooo-!
When I chanted the spell, a large magic circle appeared behind me and a gloomy purple fog poured out..
It felt more like a thundercloud than fog, and sparks flew inside the fog along with a sound like a dragon bursting..
And at this point, Berita's left eye turned golden..
“……!”
A golden light enveloped my entire body, but that was only for a moment..
The brilliant color instantly changed to a dull gray and, in a rather gloomy movement, spread across the shoulder and forearm and gathered into the palm of the right hand..
Berita's right arm appeared as if it had been wrapped around a tornado, and it thrust out its palm as if pushing against an invisible wall. Eventually, it brought its hands together as if grasping something..
Pretzel and Gwangwang-!
And the purple thundercloud that was slowly approaching exploded before it could reach..
The conclusion is that Verita destroyed the magic in a way she could not have imagined..
‘What are those eyes really like??’
Part of me wanted to use the Amcheonwolhyanggeuk to get a glimpse into Verita's inner flow of energy, but I held back because I knew if I used my mind technique now, I would be discovered at once..
Instead I thought about what was happening now.
I knew that there were various factions within the Dark Church and that their relationship was never amicable, but…….
The colorless faction seemed even more fucked up than that..
Even though they are from the same faction, they say ugly things rather than cutting off limbs..
Even looking at the level of fighting going on right now, those weren't empty words..
‘…Berita stayed here until three days later..’
So will Verita win this fight??
It's hard to say that.
I don't know their individual strength, but the joint effort between those two is by no means easy..
Even though I know quite well about Verita's strength, I can't guarantee a sure win..
So, is this where Verita is defeated and forced to return to the church??
So who was in town??
“…….”
When I looked at the situation again, Verita was now significantly behind..
For a moment, I got the feeling that Verita's performance was worse than usual..
I don't know much about that guy, but I already feel like it's not my condition to be struggling.?
‘ah.’
The conversation just before that came to mind at that moment..
- This pupil is not a very convenient power. I haven't been able to confirm the existence of the two of you because I've been spending a lot of my energy recently..
When you reach the level of Verita, the state of your mental strength also has a great influence on your physical condition..
For good reason, that guy practically cleaned out the remaining musical instruments from Ymir's useless remains by himself..
The opponents are two masters who cannot guarantee a sure win even if they are in good condition..
Kwaaaaang!
A fireball shot out from Dorothy's wand and landed on Verita's body..
“…….”
Berita got down on one knee..
The eyes were still fierce, but blood was visible flowing from the corner of the mouth as if he had suffered internal injuries..
In that state, slowly release your lips..
“… If I suddenly disappear, they will arouse suspicion. Not only Heros, but also the 72nd Church. Maybe our school's existence will be discovered by them..”
“I was wondering what kind of excuse he was coming up with, but that was it.?”
Dorothy cupped her face with her palm and lightly rubbed it as if she was washing her face..
“…….”
The face that appeared when I removed my palm was Verita..
It really was like that..
Although the clothes she was wearing were different, not only her face but also her body shape had changed to Verita..
“how is it? no. How are you??”
“…….”
“Now that this has happened, it will be okay for me to work as ‘Razbet’ in the future. Since Inquisitors rarely go to the system anyway, they are less likely to be discovered, and if they die in a suitable battlefield after a while, the cleanup is clean.?”
I got goosebumps at the words that were said casually..
What suddenly occurred to me was that even the identity of ‘Dorothy’ might not be the real face of that woman..
Jeopuk.
Root is seen holding the dagger..
The rainy day absorbs the sunlight and shines unusually coolly..
I could see the hunter kid's cautious expression, as if he was thinking about how to slaughter the freshly caught game..
‘…for a moment.’
In that situation, my thoughts took a rather odd turn..
Dorothy, the transformation of that woman from an old woman is astounding to me..
It's probably a skill that's several levels higher than the Linchal mask I'm using as a magic tool..
He also said he could take over Verita's job..
then…….
[sorry.]
A letter I received before returning.
At that moment, it occurred to me that the letter, which contained only very simple content, might have been written by Dorothy and not Verita.…….
Chaeng-!
Before I knew it, I was facing Root with the Seven Deadly Sins Sword drawn..
“What……?”
When I saw Ruth up close, she looked younger than I thought, but the bulky northern clothes made her look older..
“…Brother?”
Verita looked at me in a puzzled voice..
‘This is my first time seeing such a surprised face..’
While I felt a bit refreshed seeing my face for the first time, Dorothy, who was standing across from me, also looked at me with a puzzled look..
“You can't believe it-.”
“Uh, it's me.”
But do they even know my face??
I can't tell from your expression right now..
It didn't matter much anyway, so I continued..
“As someone who became a hero, I couldn't stand to see the weak being persecuted like this..”
“what?”
“I have no intention of arguing with your method, but let's keep the conditions we just mentioned. Instead of.”
I said with a grin..
“For it to be a fair fight, the numbers have to match.?”
