Chapter 1188 – Earth’s End
Orbeck, whose eyes had turned into night sweats, begged to be spared and to be forgiven just once.
At first I cried out loud, but it was so noticeable that I stopped it.
What. Although the attention was already focused on us, who showed up with this huge carriage and even assaulted the warden at the gate.
Still, his true identity had not been discovered, but it was all thanks to this wagon.
I looked back at the huge carriage again.
This wagon was endowed with various magical effects, making it impossible to see the faces of those of us standing around the wagon.
Thanks to that, people around us were very curious about who we were, but they couldn’t recognize us.
In the past, the wagons of the King of Narnia were not as large and luxurious as this.
As he inspected the carriage, Duduri growled at Orbeck, who had been hit in the head.
“You’re this baby. You to Titan. And I will tell you to the house.”
“Keuheuk…! Please forgive me…! I have a wife and children…!”
Orbeck begged, but Duduri did not pretend to hear, coldly turned his back and rubbed his hands at me.
“I’m really sorry for the delay because of the filth. Heir…! Come on! Get in the carriage!”
“Then thank you.”
Feeling really grateful, I got on the carriage, Hwaa. Admired
“Dwarves aren’t a race that easily matches magic…”
The inside of the wagon is, of course, enchanted with space expansion, so it is much larger than a modest house and has several rooms.
In addition, it is equipped with everything necessary for living, such as a bathroom, toilet, kitchen, and a magic tool that allows you to watch simple videos on a soft bed. There were also play tools such as board games.
It would not be an exaggeration to call it a moving house.
“Dwarves are clumsy at attacking or summoning magic, but they are a race that excels at crafting magic skills.”
Kitz boasted of his knowledge.
We climbed into the carriage and lay down on the beds arranged according to the number of people, exclaiming in admiration.
For reference, there were windows on both sides, and these windows reflected the outside scenery in proportion to the area of the carriage’s exterior.
Looking out the window, the checkpoint and the long line pass by like waves.
People in line stare blankly at the carriage.
Envy and envy on their faces. A glimpse of longing.
Kya
Is this the feeling of the person who has it?
I felt like I knew a little bit why people were so influenced by power and influence.
Surprisingly, the time when people can feel superiority while watching the line was not long.
Each country had more than a dozen gates, but this wagon did not hold onto any of them.
I thought it was a free pass structure to ignore the line and go to the front to be inspected, but I just ignored it and ran briskly, and that was it.
The tightly closed gateway in front automatically opened when the wagon came within a certain distance, helping us pass smoothly.
“It’s comfortable, but what if the bad guys steal it and use it?”
Caiemon answered again this time.
“It’s okay. This wagon cannot be moved unless you are a high-status Dwarf.”
“Magic is the best!”
After passing through dozens of gates, I entered the ‘fake holy ground’.
What should I say about the fake sanctuary?
I’ve only been there once along with Shihyeon. It had a similar atmosphere to electronic shopping malls in Yongsan and Digital Complex.
It was like a modern bustling city.
There were many large stores that dealt with a variety of weapons at once, as well as stores that dealt with and repaired only one weapon such as a sword or spear.
Not just arms, but clothing. Kitchen utensils. Accessories. Bag. A magic tool with the effect of a home appliance. Charm. Exclusive items, toys, etc. Worn or used by a special race. There was nothing.
Cheap or expensive, good or bad, everything in this world is here. A place that makes you feel that way.
That’s the holy place.
…Is. Although this is a fake sacred place for show.
Is this fake?
“Wow. If this is the part you can show people, what is the real sacred ground like?”
Dudu-ri, who was sitting in my admiration, let out a satisfied laugh.
“I guarantee you. Whatever you can imagine, you’ll be amazed!”
“Oh oh…”
I’ve learned from working together, but a man who doesn’t say anything unless he’s certain is duduri.
Expectations for such a guarantee were getting higher and higher.
However, the carriage headed to a strange place.
Suddenly, he climbed a mountain road.
“Hmm? Is the Holy Land over the mountain?”
“Whoop whoop.”
Duduri showed a meaningful smile, and Kitz spoke.
“It’s down there.”
“…? Under?”
Duduri questioned Kitz’s words.
“Huh? Has the warrior ever been to our holy ground?”
“I heard it by accident.”
“Hmm… If you’ve heard of it… If it’s a religious fanaticism, at least one or two people must have been there…”
Duduri muttered and understood.
…Below?
The carriage went up to the top of the mountain.
At the top of the mountain, a dwarf with a good appearance and radiant armor was standing with his hands behind his back and waiting.
Duduri got off the carriage and pretended to know him.
“Oh. Grant. Are you the guide?”
“That’s right.”
He politely bowed his head to Duduri, then looked at us and lowered his head roughly.
“Welcome. From now on, the manager of the entrance to the Holy Land, the first-class earth warrior, Grant Dredld Iim, will guide you.”
“Thank you, Grant.”
They noticed that we didn’t like each other a bit, but at least outwardly we were polite, so I treated them well.
“Come this way.”
Grant pointed out over the forest.
It wasn’t long after I walked after him that I smelled sulfur. And I felt the heat.
…No way?
Soon the forest disappeared, and a wilderness appeared.
Without hesitation, Grant went out across the wilderness and before long we faced a huge cliff.
The heat at the bottom of the cliff was amazing, but at the bottom of the cliff…
“Lava?”
Okay. There is a lava field.
Bubbling red-hot molten iron.
As everyone stared at the great nature in awe, Grant pointed a finger at the lava.
“This is the entrance.”
While everyone was making questioning faces, I threw myself.
[Crazy hem! What if it’s a joke?]
If it’s a joke, let’s go lava swimming!!
With this body, it might be possible!!
It was possible in the old game!!
[Because of this guy, there is a warning to distinguish it from fiction…!]
Malamala’s voice is buaang-! Buried by the grotesque sound.
When I looked around, there was no lava anywhere. A cave with flashing blue particles appeared.
I looked up and saw a clear sky with no red lava at all, and the party came out with bewildered eyes. That is, he was pointing his finger down.
Kitz, who was saying something to the party, jumped down. Starting with him, others also jumped off.
Booooong-!!
Just like when I jumped down, a strange sound resounded and the floating magic was activated and the party landed safely.
“Wow! Damn! I thought I was going to die…!”
It seems that Rius also looked like lava right before he came down.
I looked around as I escorted Lena and Almiraz, who had just jumped.
“It’s like a sea god’s cave.”
Haha. Isn’t it beautiful? It’s even useful.”
“Useful?”
Dudu-ri said with a chuckle.
“This blue stone that forms the cave is imbued with a sacred energy to ward off demons. It is a very good material.”
Shuuk! Widely!
Grant, who came down next, looked at us with a confused face.
“…Well. Most of them would never go into that red lava. They jump in with the best defenses around. You guys are special.”
“Haha.”
I barely covered it up with a laugh.
Grant, whose face wriggled for a moment, seemed to have heard my laughter as a ridicule.
“But this is just the beginning. Our dwarves’ holy land. At the end of the earth, there is a proverb. ‘Only those who have endured trials can enter this place.'”
At that moment, Puck!! A sound rang out.
Dudu-ri hit Grant’s chest with the back of his hand and frowned.
“Hey. You’re being too rude to the heir to watch from now on?”
Grant looked at me without even replying, as if Duduri had missed it.
“Sorry, Mad Flame. I didn’t mean to be rude.”
I waved my hand to him who immediately apologized and said that I was fine too.
We went again and walked through a straight line of caves.
Around the cave, there are countless blue statues made of the same material as the cave, which attracted attention.
The Spirit Sculpture Spirit Art was also very beautiful, but these statues, which reached the extreme of ordinary sculpture, were no less wonderful.
It’s good that the dwarves’ dexterity is good.
Bubbling.
It wasn’t long before we reached the lava field again.
It was a much wider lava field than before, with no end in sight.
There was no other way but this lava.
Right. I mean, this…
“Is this the ordeal you mentioned earlier? Only those who have endured the ordeal can enter. In other words, do you mean enduring fear?”
At my serious voice, Grant groaned and grinned.
“Whoops. You got it right…”
“Kyatho!”
I threw myself.
And Kitz exclaimed.
“Acne…!”
Why?
This is fake…
Roaring!! Pajijijik!
“Oh ah ahhhhh!”
Hot!
Hot!
It’s damn hot!!!
This was real lava!!
“Oh no!!!!”
Grant screamed and put his hands together. Coo coo coo. A huge rock wall became a hand and tried to rescue me. For some reason, the spell was released in the middle, and it turned to stone and poured out.
Perhaps this lava has some sort of disintegrating spell cast on it.
“This, you crazy!! Grant! Try something!”
“Teacher!”
“Master!!”
“Tongue, brother!!”
Duduri. Lena. Diamond. Rius shouted in turn.
Duduri even grabbed Grant by the collar.
“You can’t tell the difference between when you’re farming and when you’re not, are you?”
“Ah, no…! I never thought you would jump there…!”
After. You don’t have to get scolded for me.
Because…
“It’s okay! I’m used to it!!”
“??”
Grant opened his mouth, and I proudly splashed my arms forward.
It’s a bit lacking because of the love heart bitch, but the body of a stranger who has leveled up!!
And thanks to the skill I made right before being engulfed in lava, ‘Scorching Resistance’, it’s worth swimming!
“Yes!! This pain is an ordeal!! Only those who have endured this can enter the dwarven holy land!!”
This is not even an ordeal!
Lava swimming I’ve been wanting to try! Rather, it is very novel and fun!
After all, there is no man better suited to fire than me!
“Hey. It’s embarrassing, so come out dude. They say there’s another way.”
“…Haaaaa…”
Intangible scolded, and Kitz let out a deep sigh.
…Hmm.
Wasn’t this training?
Afterwards, the women screamed shrilly as they were caught by the hand of the rock that they concentrated on and pulled out.
Understand the screams
My clothes were on fire That is, naked.
That clothes. It was a luxury item for today…
Inevitably, I took out the adventurer’s suit I usually wore from the subspace and put it on.
“Sorry… I’ve troubled you…”
At my sullen voice, Grant, who had been standing with his hands folded, smiled politely and bent his waist 90 degrees.
“It’s completely my mistake! It’s my fault for not knowing when to joke!! I will definitely be guilty of this mistake. I will serve you perfectly from now on, so please forgive me.”
“?”
Why are you being so polite?
It feels like my eyes are trembling for some reason.
I nodded shyly.
For reference, there was an invisible path between the lava.
It is normally invisible, and it is only visible when the dwarves operate it.
“Go away. Everyone.”
We headed forward smoothly under the guidance of Grant.
“Master. Are you okay…?”
“I’m a teacher~”
Throughout the journey, Dia was by her side and Lena was on her right side, caring for me and worrying about me.
Kya
I can feel the love between a disciple and a daughter.
This is the life of a successful man.
[Hmm…]
[Hmm. I don’t know Lena Artez, but I like the other.]
Why are they like this again?
We soon came to a dead end.
As if it were natural, the huge wall split in half and began to open.
The aisle beyond the open entrance was so wide that it seemed like it would be okay to have twenty people lined up across it.
“Everyone. At the end of this aisle. Please wait a moment when you reach the exit.”
You’re telling me not to do something unexpected like I did earlier.
Hearing Grant’s polite caution, we descended the stairs.
You get on the elevator in the middle and go down again…
Ahang. Got a sense.
“The Holy Land is an underground city, right?”
“It’s similar.”
Kitz’s playful voice.
It’s an underground city, but what’s more special?
Whatever it is, I’m very looking forward to it.
After proceeding with a pounding heart, we finally arrived at the end of the exit.
What came out through the light flowing from the exit… Was a huge square and a vast ‘sky’.
“…”
We definitely rode the mountain and kept coming down.
I don’t know if this area is low ground or what.
However, this space is not a ‘sub-space’ and the sky I see is the real sky.
But it wasn’t the sky that surprised me.
A gigantic ‘barrier’ that stretches for thousands of kilometers, shining even from far below.
That, too, is not an illusion, but a real wall.
Huge and steep cliffs resembling mountains and a strong and magnificent castle wall built between the cliffs extend beyond the endless horizon.
Inside the stone wall, a city landscape reminiscent of an illustration of a ‘future city’, a mixture of modern and fantasy styles, spread out.
Whoa! The wind swept us.
Thousands of kilometers away, thousands of meters of stone walls were built as if to protect the city, and the sophisticated city scenery seen inside the stone walls was truly spectacular.
“…A fantasy world. The best!!”
I was genuinely amazed.
