Chapter 200 – Chapter 193 – Wolf and Goddess (4)
As Hernán approached Marina, Karine, who was next to her, hardened her face slightly.
“I think the saintess just wants to go?”
Holding back a laugh for some reason, Hernán arrived in front of Marina.
“You have to hear it yourself, you know.”
Marina relaxes a little when Hernán arrives.
Hernan asked her in a loud voice.
“Are you going?”
Marina didn’t answer right away and looked at her goddess for a moment.
She just stared at the goddess, but she didn’t say or do anything.
“I am…”
Marina looked back and forth between the goddess and Hernán, and she carefully and respectfully folded her hands.
“I will stay here.”
“Why are you staying?”
The goddess asked so quickly that her silence was overshadowed.
“Is it because she lost her title as a saint? Of course, the reason you’re not a saint is that you’ll get a bad look from the church. Especially since she has kids.”
Unlike the two women before her, Marina’s goddess seemed to put more effort into persuading her.
“But if you return with my protection and my revelation, no one in the Church will dare to criticize. Rather, the number of people following you will increase.”
A faint smile caught the corner of her goddess’ mouth and the words came out in a whisper.
“Perhaps the next Archbishop will return to you.”
At her word Archbishop, Marina held her folded hands tightly.
She struggled to maintain her normal expression, but the muscles in her face were quivering.
Everyone seemed to feel conflicted.
“… Thank you for your mercy. Thank you so much for being merciful to me until the end when I couldn’t keep my promise to you.”
But Marina bowed her head and apologized to her goddess.
“But I’m sorry. I will remain here, Goddess.”
Silnia approached Marina with her angry face.
“Hey! I don’t know about Karine or I, but what if you refuse! She is the goddess you serve.”
She didn’t openly reveal herself as a goddess, but there was surprise in her voice.
“You don’t look like the Marina I know. I thought you would think rationally.”
Farewell to life here where an unknown future lurks.
To gain a high level of influence enough to challenge for the office of Archbishop.
Throwing it all away and staying here is not very rational.
“Actually, there’s a reason it’s scary.”
Shame flashed on Marina’s face.
“I am afraid of criticism. The accusation that the virtuous saint came after defiled her body.”
Displeasure flashed in the goddess’ eyes.
“Even if I send a revelation to the church to stop you from doing that?”
Hernán felt that the situation was worse than he thought.
She knew that Marina would lead without much friction no matter what choice she made, but unexpectedly she had the biggest friction.
“It seems my faith is weak. And I think it makes more sense to stay here.”
“The reason is?”
With the atmosphere that the goddess would not tolerate anyone interfering, she immediately asked a question.
At the sight, Marina’s feet wiggled anxiously.
“Because you drank.”
The goddess asked in an absurd tone.
“Have you been drinking?”
“Yes, because I drank, I think it is better to stay here.”
Marina answered in a calm tone, shaking her body slightly.
“This is my guess. It’s just my thoughts that aren’t enough, so the goddess is so angry…”
“Are you okay. Please speak quickly.”
“… I don’t know if the demon will do the same to others, but at least if I get out of here, the demon will definitely use a trick to bring me back here.”
“Trickery? What kind of trick are you doing when I’m watching?”
To be honest, I could say that the goddess listened with great patience.
It’s like seeing the existence of an ant from the point of view of the gods, who keeps saying blasphemous things, but instead of using force, they ask questions.
“But weren’t we already tricked into coming here once?”
“…”
However, Marina’s words this time caused a strong displeasure to appear on her goddess’ face.
“So you’re saying it was because of me or the other human gods’ lack of attention that you were already trapped here?”
“That means… No. It’s just that the lies of the Demon God, who is also the god of deceit and deceit, were overly elaborate.”
What Hernan had been thinking all along.
She then looked back on the situation before joining her party, which she had been told by other women.
“I could already see how important this bizarre experiment, where we fill in 25 people here, is to the Demon God through his struggles. As such, even if we get out of here, the demons will bring us here no matter what.”
“Didn’t you agree with me earlier? If the human gods protect you after you get out of here, you will be safe.”
“Of course, if the Human Gods join forces, they will be more powerful than the Demon Gods. That’s why the Demon God will use his trick, which is his skill.”
While the conversation between Marina and the goddess continued, Hernan felt something out of place.
It wasn’t just the kind of thing the goddess was displeased with.
“I think it’s quiet.”
Suddenly, at Silnia’s muttered words, Hernán raised his head.
Then she saw the figure of the silent ceiling.
In other words, the demon’s attack had completely stopped.
“Okay, Marina. As you said, I agree that the Demon God will play tricks.”
In the meantime, the conversation seemed to have progressed somewhat.
“But on the other hand, this is also very important to us human gods. If the Demon God is so desperate.”
The goddess said that there would be so strong protection and she looked at Marina.
“Since the demon god’s purpose will not benefit the human god, I will definitely protect the person who went out and their child. Can’t you believe this?”
The Goddess of Mercy spoke to Marina as if admonishing.
Marina trembled even more at the words of the goddess.
She must have felt a visceral fear that she had incurred her wrath at her own goddess.
The moment Hernán put aside her doubts about her ceiling and went to calm her Marina down, Marina opened her mouth again.
Her voice didn’t tremble unlike her body.
“If the demon god’s plan can only be stopped with our deaths… What if it comes to that conclusion?”
“Marina!”
Her goddess cry was now filled with unmistakable anger.
“Are you going to insult my trust like this? Blaming me and the human gods for the cause of your imprisonment here?”
Hernan, who stopped for a moment, quickly stood by Marina.
It was a similar action to what a wolf would do when it was targeting another person.
However, the goddess focused only on her Marina, revealing her anger.
“You are my follower! If you insult me like this, I will force you to escape right here, regardless of your will…”
“Louire.”
When the war god spoke to the talking Goddess of Mercy, Ruiner put his index finger to his lips.
“You didn’t let me tell you, did you? Besides, can’t you see I’m angry?”
“The important thing to say is…”
“Are you going to keep getting soggy like this?”
“It’s really important. To the point where I don’t even have to pay attention to your warnings.”
The wolf, which had been sitting still, approached, raising its huge body.
* * *
The wolf’s eyes had a vicious aura.
Ruiner was taken aback for a moment, then asked a question with a serious expression.
“Aren’t you excited? Promise me that you won’t run amok, then tell me.”
“Grrr…”
The War God Wolf had cold eyes similar to Carine’s in the past.
He had already begun to focus on Hernan and the others, not the goddesses.
“Let me ask you a question. Are the young ones I saw when I came down earlier born here?”
Even the demon’s magic stopped, and Hernan felt that the quiet garden was somehow ominous.
“That’s right.”
“Are you the only male or male here?”
“Except the child?”
“Don’t even think of playing with words. Of course, I’m only asking about guys who can impregnate women or females.”
As if fog spread, anxiety enveloped the entire group of Hernan.
“I am the one.”
“So all the kids here were made by you and the women and females of this place? With no outside input at all?”
Hernán felt offended by the wolf’s way of referring to a demon woman as a female.
However, he still had enough self-control not to reveal his displeasure in front of God.
“Yes. They are all my children.”
The murderous look in the wolf’s eyes faded.
However, Hernán felt that the killing spree had not disappeared, but had been captured.
It’s obvious what it means to live.
All of a sudden, the muscles of the body tense and the hair on the head rises.
Ignoring the small cold sweat, Hernán prepared to pull out the dagger at any time.
Meanwhile, the wolf asked in a different, lower voice.
“The tailed youngster in the middle of the garden when I fell earlier must have been your child, right?”
“Yeah…”
The danger-sensing part of the head furiously sent out a signal.
Something is going wrong now.
Very seriously too.
Hernán followed that sensation and shut his mouth.
The other women, especially Marina, also took a step back with a face that seemed to remember something.
“Woden. Why are you doing this?”
The goddess asked why the war god was doing this.
The wolf still glared at Hernan and the others and said.
“Louire, you couldn’t see it. You would have had time to look around only after the demons and children had almost disappeared.”
“Why? How is it? Was there anything strange?”
At that moment, a few short words passed through Hernan’s mind.
Ella.
Me and Sharpie’s daughter.
Dreamer’s tail.
The blood of humans and demons flowing through the child’s body.
Hernán fully realized what the wolf had confirmed.
And the taboos and rules set by the gods that I forgot about because I was so used to them.
“You made a child with a demon.”
When the wolf spoke calmly, the goddess laughed with an absurd face.
“Does not make sense! That’s impossible…”
Hernan, who was concentrating on the wolf, shouted loudly.
“Damage!”
“Kyaaak!”
The wolf’s foot cut down exactly where Hernán and the others had gathered.
Fortunately, no one was kicked by it.
Already exhausted, the wolf shook off his feet when no one was hurt.
“A while ago, I saw a young horse with a dreamy tail. And the only man here is this old smelly human. Isn’t that obvious?”
The wolf looked at Hernan and the others with regret.
“Choose whether to stay or escape? Mere mortals before the gods? Truly arrogant.”
The Goddess of Mercy was holding back the wolf, but after she heard of Ella’s existence, the intensity of her stopping the wolf decreased.
“Things that violate taboos. Things that go beyond the rules of the world set by the gods should not be left alive. Especially if it has to do with the old mage!”
“Bo, than! Just calm down… Ugh!”
The wolf pushed the Goddess of Mercy away with her tail.
Her eyes already glowed with an uncontrollable thirst for violence, just as they did when she first landed here.
“Everybody scatter!”
As long as the garden gate is locked, they must disperse as much as possible.
Hernan shouted at the women and drew his dagger again.
The wolf also did not refuse the challenge and opened its mouth.
“I’ll tear you to pieces!”
Hernán tried to draw back the power he used when fighting the wolf earlier.
With the power that endowed his body with superhuman abilities, he would be able to make the most of his time or face the wolf.
“This!”
However, the unfamiliar power did not respond to Hernán in an urgent situation.
It just briefly nestled in Hernan’s muscles.
Hernan gritted his teeth.
The day, which should have gone as usual after giving Ella a present, turned into a complete mess.
And if he or the woman dies here, everyone’s lives here will be a mess.
‘Please!’
Standing in front of God, Hernán prayed to God.
‘At least women and children!’
Hernan, he lunged at the charging wolf.
“Get down!”
-Bang
With the sound of the garden door being smashed, Hernán immediately slid toward the floor.
In contrast, the large wolf rushed in the same direction and encountered a huge fireball.
“Quaaaaagh!”
The wolf’s head was enveloped in huge flames and entangled in the explosion.
“Magic!”
The goddess looked in astonishment at the entrance to the garden.
Hernando looked that way as he got away from the wolf wallowing on the floor.
“Burn up!”
“Forties!”
When Hernan shouted, Potty turned to Hernan.
Potty’s golden eyes were showing magical reactions with a sparkling light.
And behind her, black tentacle-shaped masses of magic wriggled.
Hernan realized that the demon attacking the ceiling had changed its strategy.
“Woden! We must escape immediately! The demonic power behind that bunny girl!”
It was the same for the human gods who gained that realization.
“Kurrrr! No! Kill all the demons, or at least kill the males!”
“More burning!”
Potty shouted an incantation as soon as the wolf’s words finished.
Then, a huge fireball began to glow in her hand.
It was a powerful magic that I had never seen while traveling together.
It must be magic that could not be created without the help of demons.
“Die!”
The wolf swung its foot at Hernan, who was watching the magic.
However, the foot just exploded with flames.
“Ouch… !”
As the wolf pulled her right front paw away, the goddess hurriedly cried out.
“Woden! You’ve run out of holy power now! Don’t foolishly use your body for magic and try to escape!”
The goddess looked at her Marina, covering her body with golden divine power.
Closing her eyes, the goddess let out a sigh of relief.
“I can’t help it. We have no choice but to leave.”
“… Goddess.”
“I hope you make a wise decision.”
The goddess broke through her ceiling before the wolf and disappeared.
It was an escape as fast as she fell here.
“These disgusting wizards! Truly repulsive!”
The wolf continued to shout indignant cries while covering its body with blue divine power.
“You still can’t forget the old days, so you’re doing this, wizard!”
The ferocious shout had no effect on the tentacles behind the Potty.
The tentacle just tapped Potty on the back.
“Tear everything apart!”
As Potty shouted at the signal, an orb of electricity began to form in his hand.
The wolf looked at it and became rather quiet.
The wolf’s eyes, which looked like they would kill someone with just their eyes, quickly scanned the garden.
“Karine!”
“Ugh!”
Carine, who had taken cover by her wall, ducked down in fright at the shouts that roared through her garden.
When the war god saw it, she shouted even more furiously.
“Do what you have to do as a warrior! Use the ferocity I inherited that tears enemies to shreds!”
“Huh!”
Carine covered her ears, but the she-wolf didn’t care and cried out to her woman, who inherited her own blood.
“So get what you want!”
The wolf’s face was covered with divine power for the last time.
“That’s the only way to escape my wrath when you and your little ones get out of here!”
“Go away!”
Potty’s mana was all gathered in the electric ball, and the ball flew towards the wolf with a rupture sound.
“Remember!”
The wolf jumped at the horse last.
Forty’s magic also soared to the ceiling following the wolf.
However, the magic could not penetrate the ceiling’s protective shield that passed through the goddess and the wolf, and fell to the floor.
On the floor, of course, was Hernan and his party lying face down among the rubble.
“Forties! Get rid of the magic!”
Hernán hurriedly shouted, and Potty hurriedly chanted again.
“Bar, shield!”
However, before Potty’s magic could be completed, the ball of electricity almost reached the floor.
And just like that, they scattered and disappeared.
“What… ?”
Silnia gasped for breath and raised her head to hear Marina’s voice.
“Uh… Come to think of it, this was originally a place where magic couldn’t be used because of the divine power of the ancient gods, right?”
Ernan laughed dejectedly.
When the human gods disappeared, it seemed that the divine power of the old gods, which neutralized their divine power, had worked.
He murmured in a violently shaken, fluctuating vision.
“Do all gods like dramatic things like this?”
In the garden where magic, divine power, and giant wolves disappeared, his murmur resonated loudly.
“Under…”
“Fuck…”
“I survived anyway!”
The only answer was women’s sighs and relaxed laughter.
