Chapter 504 – 504. Great War of Gods (5)
“This… Fool!”
Huge marbles falling from the sky.
Erin’s complexion turned blue when she discovered the annihilation jade, and she screamed.
The more slowly it descends, the more and more magical power contained in the marble that gets closer and closer gives goose bumps all over the skin and makes the tail stand upright.
“Don’t make a fuss.”
“Oh, how is that!”
If that large orb containing mighty magic power collided with the ground, it wouldn’t be a problem for this entire island to disappear.
If this island is erased, it means that all those who land on this island will be turned into powder and disappear.
Not only himself and the nine-tailed fox, but also his acquaintances, the Knights of Artia and Gerard, and his family, Eun-hyeon and Eleanor, could all be in danger, so how could he stay still?
Looking at the gumiho who created the culprit, Erin argued.
“What the hell are you thinking… !”
“The time has come soon.”
“… Are you coming? Who?”
Having created this situation, unlike Erin, the nine-tailed fox, who had a calm attitude with her arms crossed, pricked up his fox ears at the sound of her footsteps coming from afar.
Hearing the footsteps of the two people running at high speed kicking the floor, he smiled.
“Here you are.”
“Uh… ?”
Belatedly, with her keen hearing, Erin also realized the footsteps of the two nine-tailed foxes, and she turned her head toward it.
Erin’s serious expression brightened when she noticed Eun-hyeon running toward her with the hair on her back and Gerard quickly chasing after him.
“Hyun-a!”
Erin’s nerves were focused in that direction, as she was so happy to see Eunhyeon’s face in this urgent situation.
“Miho!”
“Ah… !”
It was a very big mistake for Erin to forget that she was currently in battle due to a series of embarrassment and joy due to the sudden sudden action of the nine-tailed fox and Eun-hyeon’s appearance.
Her feelings of anger soared, and Erin, who heard the voice of Ortas rushing towards Miho without taking her eyes off Miho, belatedly realized the situation and hurriedly turned her body to try to stop Ortas, but Ortas had already and was on the verge of reaching the gumiho.
“Joy.”
Even as Ortas’s bloody swordsman was swung right in front of him to decapitate himself, the nine-tailed fox did not let go of his arms.
Rather than feeling threatened, he snorted as if it were funny, rather than taking action.
As if he was sure that Ortas’ sword would never reach him.
By the time Ortas’s blade finally came close to the fox’s neck, Gerard, who had noticed the situation from afar, moved immediately.
[Gerard’s Attribute Secret]
[Brain Myth]
Paperweight!
Yellow sparks bouncing in the air flashed, and at the same time, a single flash of light cut through the air and arrived quickly.
[Gerard’s Attribute Secret]
[Lightning Petrification]
The second thunder myth that was triggered as soon as Eleanor’s divine power received intensive care and eased the burden on the body.
Immediately raising the giraffe’s magical power, Gerard began to wrap his entire body in golden thunderbolts. Gerard passed Eun-hyeon, who was running ahead, and struck Ortas’s sword, which was thrusting a sword into the neck of the nine-tailed fox.
Kaaang!
Ortas’ sword is deflected upward by Gerard’s dagger covered in lightning.
“Nice… Ugh!?”
Ortas groaned as he was momentarily in a state of electric shock due to the powerful electric current that flowed through the blade and spread throughout his body.
Before long, he recognized the true identity of Gerard’s power and put on a puzzled expression.
Ortas had neither known nor heard of the Kirin divine beast that existed in the past, but the thunderbolt he wore was not a level of power that humans could handle, just like the magic of a nine-tailed fox, but the magical power of a divine beast belonging to a higher concept. I could see right away.
“Miho! Are you okay?”
“Joy. It’s too late. Didn’t you almost injure my neck?”
“I’m sorry.”
Gerard scratches his head as if he has no face and shows a shy smile while looking at the nine-tailed fox.
And Ortas’ face contorted as he witnessed the nine-tailed fox up close who didn’t refuse Gerard’s approach while snorting at him.
The expression the nine-tailed fox is making now as he looks at Gerard is completely different from the expression he had earlier when he was looking at him with disillusionment and anger.
It resembled the expression of delight she had shown when she first met her and was with herself in her distant past.
“Uh… Because… !”
Why can humans wield such power, and why is such a person on this island?
He gave up everything as a human to use the power of a nine-tailed fox.
Lifespan, sacrifice, humanity, and even the person he had a crush on, everything.
But what about the man in front of you?
Gerard, who maintains his human nature in a perfect human form and handles the power of the divine beast, is the perfect transcendental figure he has been pursuing for hundreds of years.
It was unbearable for a man like that to have a man other than himself standing next to a nine-tailed fox.
A multitude of emotions swirled in Ortas’ heart.
The nine-tailed fox, whom she once admired but had no choice but to betray, has been resurrected and is now able to embrace her as an existence of the same class as her.
From someone else’s point of view, he would have cast a contemptuous gaze if he had known that the red-haired general had also harbored such thoughts.
However, Ortas, who had already made a cowardly rationalization for his own actions with his reason broken, did not notice the contradiction in his heart.
It was unbearable that there was a man other than himself next to the resurrected gumiho.
“It has become very ugly.”
After reading Ortas’ emotions, the nine-tailed fox looked at him and murmured softly.
There was no longer any anger or contempt on the face of the gumiho staring at him.
A gaze of sympathy for an immortal whose reason has been ruined over a long period of time.
“Nice… Ugh!”
Ortas, who was no longer supplied with power from the fox orb, was struck directly by the thunderbolt and could not get out of the state of electric shock.
In fact, from the moment the fox beads were broken, victory was already decided.
“So I said. From the moment you and I landed here alone, your defeat was predetermined.”
It was the result of Ortas’ complacent carelessness, who was wary of only the nine-tailed fox, not even considering Eunhyun and other variables.
“Mi… Like… !”
Seeing Ortas calling out to the gumiho with a look of resentment, the gumiho slowly turned around.
“End.”
The nine-tailed fox, who even had the vengeance to end it himself, passed the role of cutting off Ortas to Gerard, not himself.
“… All right.”
At that brief word from the nine-tailed fox, Gerard nodded slightly and immediately moved into action.
Without hesitation, he inserts the dagger into Ortas’ neck, who is not listening to the electric shock.
“Big… Omg!”
The lightning around the blade of the dagger spread through Ortas’ entire body, riding down his piercing neck.
All the blood flowing through his body evaporated and his whole body burned black.
Due to the damage of the fox orb, he can no longer recover his body as he is no longer supplied with the magical power of the divine beast.
Burned all over, Ortas’ body collapsed on the floor.
“Hyunah!”
Erin, who had arrived late, was about to be embraced by Eun-hyeon, but she hesitated when she saw Eun-hyeon’s reaction as she stared at the huge jade of extinction descending from the sky with a firm expression.
“My, I didn’t do it!”
Erin hastily excused herself.
She continued, pointing her finger at the nine-tailed fox.
“Miho did it! I’m dry!”
“Joy.”
At Erin’s words and actions, which rushed forward to tell him about her own arbitrary actions, the gumiho turned his head and snorted.
“What do we do!? If it falls, not only us, but also the Templars and others… !”
“Are you okay.”
Eunhyun calmed down Erin, who was in a state of panic.
Eventually, he glanced at the nine-tailed fox and Gerard to check the situation and confirm Ortas’ defeat.
“Let’s go.”
“… Huh?”
Eun-hyeon’s decision was very quick.
He took out an artifact imprinted with magic from his pocket and activated it.
The magic that creates a door by forcibly opening a passage to another place is a gate magic independently developed by Eunhyeon and Illyana.
“Uh, uh… ?”
Eunhyun hugged Erin’s body, who said she didn’t know why.
Then she turned her head and shouted at Gerard.
“Gerard! As I said before, let’s break away!”
“All right! Miho! Please bear with me for now!”
Gerard nodded and immediately hugged the nine-tailed fox.
Normally, the gumiho kicked barefoot, telling her not to touch her body, but this time, as the situation was, she was forced into Gerard’s arms.
But that didn’t mean that she was held in compliance.
“Joy. If you touch my butt now, I will never forgive you!”
“Ah! It has never been like that before!”
“I must have imagined such a situation! Did you think I wouldn’t know your sinister gaze?!”
When I saw the gumiho, who were fussing and making a little fuss in Gerard’s arms, I wondered what the hell those two were doing in this situation.
Eun-hyeon left behind Gerard, who was running towards her, picked up Erin, and jumped into the entrance of the gate.
Just before the gate entrance closed, leaving a narrow gap, Gerard, who was holding a nine-tailed fox, jumped into the gate.
Woo woo woo
The gate disappeared, and the nine-tailed fox’s jade finally came down to the ground, sweeping the grass and collapsing the land.
The body of Ortas, who had lost consciousness due to Gerard’s attack and fell to the ground, was swept away by the powerful magic of the Extermination Jade and was roughly torn apart.
“… !”
Ortas, who came to his senses belatedly, screamed and had a seizure.
He wanted to scream, but his vocal cords were burned by the thunderbolt, and he had no choice but to let out a soundless clamor and start the game.
Finally, the collapsed land disappeared without even powder remaining, and the annihilation jade that swallowed even the sea erased Orbis Island itself as if it had never existed in the first place.
The end of Ortas, who had lived a semi-permanent immortal life for several hundred years, came to a very futile end.
