I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 368
368fury
Ozma placed his outstretched hand on his waist and muttered in an annoying voice..
“I don't know why there are so many uninvited guests today without warning. tiredly.”
I blinked my eyes.
Just a moment ago, a strange energy enveloped my entire body, but now it had calmed down a bit. Not just the momentum, but even the facial expressions.
If this woman named Ozma seems to be paying attention to Seren, is that my mistake??
“I would have told you not to do anything that stands out..”
“That's right. In a space that only we can enter, it is quietly crushed..”
“Is that so? Then, the girl over there is a newcomer to this witches' association.?”
Seren sarcastically said..
“That's fun. Just then, you found someone suitable again..”
What is a suitable person??
Witch council candidate, something like that?.
Questions rose like clouds, but first I cleared up the unpleasant misunderstandings..
“I'm with a man.”
“…….”
Seren chuckled for a moment..
Ozma said.
“Even though it looks like that on the outside, I don't know how it came to be eaten. It wouldn't be strange if he was a 2 meter tall guy..”
“what is that……?”
“He's hiding himself with a magic tool. We were just checking. Don’t you need to know what kind of plan you have??”
“…….”
Seren's eyebrows, which had risen sharply, softened somewhat, but it wasn't a good development for me..
If Seren turns her back on me at this point, I think we'll have another annoying fight with that woman named Ozma..
“I admit that I am hiding myself. But that was for my personal purpose, not specifically to deceive you. If that crazy woman hadn't kidnapped me in the first place, we never would have met..”
As I summarized the situation by pointing to Dorothy, Seren frowned again..
“Is that true? They kidnapped me?”
“…I didn't know.”
Ozma quietly averted his gaze..
“Honestly, I don't care what other members do for a living. But since you've already done it, there's nothing you can do. That guy is from Badknicker..”
“…Badknicker?”
Then Seren looked at me with a complicated face..
“why. I have something to point out.?”
“That's not it... … . I just see it a lot in the south recently..”
“You probably didn't smell something.?”
“well. Although their intelligence power is excellent, they do not have much influence in remote areas such as the South.…….”
After replying for a moment, Seren glanced at me and said:.
“Anyway, is that why you were trying to silence me??”
“Could that be possible? This side also has no intention of losing to the Iron Blood Ball. I was just trying to tinker with the brain..”
“Memory manipulation. Well, the success rate is less than half..”
“It's not better to be an idiot than to die?”
Seren sighed..
It's like a reaction that doesn't make sense..
Meanwhile, I was also trying to sort out the situation in my own way..
‘Seren and the witches were already familiar with each other..’
Since when did it start like that??
Did they come into contact while working as a master of the information guild in the south? Or did you know it before then?.
In times like this, I always assume the worst.…….
It didn't look good at all that Seren was friendly with the [Abnaham Witches], which is currently cooperating with the church..
‘No way that guy?’
The Seren Goodspring I saw was a guy with a solid head, even if he was grumpy..
He's like a model hero. Although he may deny it himself with a disgusted expression,.
but i know.
There are very few talented people willing to risk their lives to save strangers..
So, if Seren turned towards the church, that would be quite a shock to me..
And Seren, who had been struggling, finally opened her mouth..
“just send it to me.”
As expected, I believed it.
Of course, it goes without saying that as soon as those words were uttered, the surrounding atmosphere became cold..
Dorothy was the first to speak..
“Should we just let it go? Without even erasing the memories?”
“yes.”
“It's fun. What if this guy goes there and tells Delak everything he saw and heard today? If the witches' association is declared public by the empire, you can take responsibility.?”
“The reason why the Abnaham Witches were not targeted for extermination even though they had been practicing evil secret arts for a long time was because they kept the line well. This issue is not to be taken lightly, of course, but it is not serious enough to be an imperial feat..”
“……?”
At this moment, I felt a strange sense of discomfort..
‘It's not at the level of an imperial feat.?’
Did you collude with the church??
That can't be possible..
As I quietly observed the situation, one possibility occurred to me..
no way…….
I wasn't sure, so I opened my mouth with an expression of absurdity..
“Well, if conspiring with the church to bring down the devil isn't a serious problem, then what is a serious problem??”
“…….”
-Damn it,.
It sounded like something was freezing..
It's not just a metaphor; it's real..
I could see Seren's robes fluttering. A frost-like energy shimmered in the blue eyes..
Is it the protection of a forgotten god??
The power of a man called Frost or something..
“The Devil's Descendance? Is what I just heard true??”
Looking at your razor-sharp face, I think my guess was correct..
Seren was cooperating with them, but she had no idea that this group of witches had crossed the line..
However, the members of the witches' council were not very upset..
Ozma sighed..
“That's how it happened.”
“That's how it happened. what are you saying now-.”
“I know it well. But what can I do? There is no other way.”
Ozma laughed and continued speaking in an empty voice..
“I searched all over the empire. Discussing opinions with masters of magic, recruiting talented individuals at random, deciphering thousands and tens of thousands of records from the ancient kingdom... … . But it had no meaning. Empire can no longer be our source of inspiration.”
“So you're saying you're going to join the denomination??”
“okay. Because the Demon King and the Black Cult Leader might give us the answer. First of all, they are experts on the other world. Because summoning a demon itself is summoning a being from another world..”
“It's not a good way. If tens or millions of people die in the process,-.”
“It's a shame, but honestly, it's none of my business. After all, we are strangers.”
Ozma tilted his head..
“That's not what you think either.?”
“…….”
Seren took a deep breath..
The momentum that was blowing like the north wind and cold snow has faded slightly..
Ozma shrugged..
“Of course, that's what I'm saying, I have no intention of standing by and watching the massacre. The best way is the ‘method’ you suggested. While we're on the topic, I'd like to ask, has there been some progress in repairing the O-parts??”
“…….”
Since Seren was silent, Ozma also smiled as if he wasn't expecting anything..
“I knew it. Even the best dwarf craftsman would not be able to repair something unprecedented. ruler. That's enough now, right? Get out of the way. Finish it quickly and get some rest..”
Seren sighed openly and looked at me..
It was difficult to read emotions in blue eyes..
“…I will do my best to persuade this boy. I will never let it fall into the ears of Sanghyeolgong..”
“That sounds interesting. There is nothing as meaningless as a verbal promise..”
“Then, what about ‘Mana’s Oath’??”
“What does that mean??”
“…I guess there is no other convenient setting like that. shitty worldview.”
Seren clicked her tongue, mumbled something unintelligible, and looked at me..
“You see the door behind me?”
“I can see it.”
“If you see an opening, jump right away..”
“…….”
“…….”
The surroundings became quiet as the words were spoken out loud..
Those surrounding us let out an absurd sigh..
“I'm serious? Are you willing to split from us to save that one kid? It's not like we're going to kill hundreds or thousands of people, but at most we're going to mess with one kid's brain, and that's unacceptable.?”
“That's not the issue. What matters is that this boy is innocent. Kidnapping people when you feel like it, erasing their memories and sending them back because you don't feel like it.…….”
Seren twisted the corner of her mouth sarcastically..
“…Are you kidding me?.”
“…….”
“The reason I joined hands with you was because I thought we were a group of people who knew each other well, but if we diverge on such trivial details, it will be difficult to work together in the future. Every time something like this repeats, we will clash, conflict, and eventually become antagonistic. Rather, I think now is the right time to end the relationship..”
Then Dorothy laughed and said,.
“Ozma, what are you worrying about? Singing a song asking me to kill you, you can do whatever you want..”
“It's not a decision to make rashly. The knowledge of the vision is... Because it’s so unique.”
“Then just do what you are good at. Capturing, neutralizing, then squeezing.”
“Could you please stop sounding like an all-powerful skill? Memory manipulation is a very meticulous process. When digging up complex information, omissions are bound to occur. When the process is over, it tends to break down..”
“then? Let's leave them both like this?”
“…hmm.”
Ozma sighed..
“That doesn't work anymore. I can't help it. Let's capture them both alive and think about it first..”
“You have to come out like that..”
Dorothy looked at us with a satisfied smile, and the rest of the members surrounded us as if they were surrounding us..
There was silence for a moment..
As the situation was getting worse, I glanced at Seren..
‘How strong is this guy now?.’
Last time I saw it, there was no way around that level, and you would have to be at least Mir holding Mjolnir to have a chance of winning in this shitty situation..
At that level, I could just fight as Luan and kill or capture all of these guys.…….
‘…No, but wait a minute.’
My head, which had been rolling around, suddenly stopped..
…It's silence?
Now that I think about it, the vibration that was shaking the tower has completely disappeared..
At first, I thought the intruder in the tower who caused the shaking was Seren, but…….
If you think about it more, it's strange..
Although the relationship has now become hostile, Seren and the Witches' Association were originally allies..
Of course, there is no need to attack the tower that is the witches' hideout..
They must have given me some kind of entrance pass or something..
then…….
Oh Dodog.
I heard a sound that didn't fit the atmosphere..
I realized too late that it was a sound like something made when chewing a cookie..
As we were confronting each other, our eyes naturally turned to one side..
In an unusually dark corner of the round table, there sat a being who did not fit into this place. As if it had been there from the beginning.
“He said he was going to buy some cookies, but I wonder why it takes so long..”
Lycerradigos spoke in a grumpy voice and looked around..
“Thanks to that, you wasted precious time going out. How on earth are you going to compensate??”
“…….”
“Please come up with something. I don’t think this is [De Malin Refreshment Shop], is that right??”
“…As you can see.”
“I knew it. No matter how much the world has changed, there will never be a time when a wizard opens a tea shop..”
Rise nodded with a satisfied face..
In other words, there was only one Lise who spoke freely..
Other than me, there was no one who spoke easily, not even Seren..
This guy must have gained some kind of spirit, but he didn't seem to be particularly intimidated even though he was hostile toward the witches' association.…….
The expression on RiSe's face right now was stiff..
Of course.
It's not some kind of ghost story, but I witnessed a little boy with hair several times longer than his body sitting at a round table without making a sound..
The hair is even twitching like a snake..
When you see that for the first time, you will literally feel goosebumps.…….
Now, I am more than happy with this situation..
Misreading.
Rise scooped up the remaining cookie in her hand into her mouth..
The bread bag that I was holding tightly was clearly the one I left at the entrance before going through the mysterious door..
“however.”
Rise then looked around and said.
“What are these kids??”
