Chapter 1447 – Baekgye
A long time ago. The White World was a world ruled by a black goddess.
She was her world, and her world was her, God Himself.
“Those who believe in the white doctrine say that it was a time of nothingness, but that was not the case at all.”
The world ruled by the Black Goddess was not lacking at all.
The concept of ‘magic’ has existed since primitive times, such as warming the body, curing illness, or creating water for washing. Minimum food, clothing and shelter were guaranteed.
The ‘watching’ that bosses use is also a type of this spell.
Under the reign of the Black Goddess. Residents established territories, formed tribes and families, engaged in farming and hunting, and sometimes waged war.
Colliding like that As chemical reactions took place, progress was made… And ‘civilization’ was achieved.
“The era of development. You can call it that.”
Trains, cars, airplanes, etc. Tools that seemed like magic appeared, such as being able to move comfortably without magic, or simply making hot water or cooking.
Before we knew it, it was a civilization of brilliant science, to the point where various weapons, including missiles, and even defense technologies to block such weapons were developed.
I see
This laboratory is a remnant of that civilization.
The world of the Black Goddess was a world developed to the point where it was comparable to modern civilization.
It must be a world where something called happiness existed.
One day in such a world. The white sun rose.
White sun. In other words, the white all fought with the black goddess and won.
The world maintained by the power of the goddess collapsed due to her defeat, and the White All used their own power to prevent her collapse and created new creatures.
But.
All white paid no attention to the creatures of the Black Goddess in the process.
Dead or not. Whether you live. I just ignored it.
“If they attacked, I destroyed them or cursed them.”
The cursed former residents were transformed into grotesque monsters.
Okay.
Like the crows and the old man next to me, and the Lord of Storms and the Black Dragon King that we eliminated earlier.
The number of inhabitants was very large, and they mutated into various forms.
That’s the monster.
Having lost their reason and memory, they live as monsters and are now a threat to the White World.
No. It’s not a threat.
With the power of everything white, it would have been possible to eliminate them all without cursing them.
“…You’re training the people.”
Those were Cheongtapju’s words.
“By creating the perception that they are protected from external threats, it further solidifies their rule.”
“To some extent, I agree.”
The archbishop nodded.
“But that was when he was a normal ruler. Everything white is literally a god. I don’t know if a being who can do anything he wants would have any reason to do so just to win the favor of mere creatures.”
If necessary, all you have to do is recreate the world, just as you dyed the unnamed black world white.
“Until now, I thought that the reason for creating such an unsafe world was that all white things had a will and that it was a form of entertainment that played with the inhabitants of this world like toys… Until I saw His Majesty’s soul.”
The archbishop looked at me, or more accurately, my inventory.
I took out the king’s soul with its horn cut off from my inventory.
“I thought that His Majesty hated the White Knight and was increasing his power. But… When his Majesty died, his thoughts were relayed to me. His Majesty was actually guarding this place and waiting for the goddess. He’s a monster. “It may be thanks to the goddess’s will that the so-called old residents are still alive.”
“I have just one question.”
Silver Tower Lord raised his hand.
“The king whose horn was cut off was not crazy, but made a decision while maintaining reason, right? Is it her will that the monsters remain alive? Then, doesn’t that mean that there is a black goddess alive somewhere in this world?”
“For the goddess she was, she was never really dead.”
Even though she was defeated and reduced to fragments, she still maintained her existence as a god.
It is said that not even her white clothes could get rid of her completely.
“However, her personality and powers have all been lost, she cannot influence the world, and the possibility of her resurrection is infinitely close to zero… I just thought that was it.”
However, the explanation window of the king’s soul with its horn cut off was as if the black goddess was alive.
Actually. If she is alive, she can explain abnormal phenomena such as monsters still being alive or gray people appearing.
“Wait a minute. So what is the white knight?”
The Golden Tower Lord crossed her arms, tilted her head, and spoke to herself.
“I heard he’s a guy who suddenly appeared to protect everything white that enriches the world?”
I also had similar thoughts as Geumtapju.
The white knight is a guardian brought in by the white warriors who felt threatened by the black beast.
However. If the white knight was just so strong that he erased the black goddess with his own power, then what is the white knight?
“I think of it as the embodiment of all things white. Otherwise, its strength cannot be explained.”
The tower owners looked like they wanted to do that, but neither I nor the hero party could erase the uneasiness.
What on earth is that guy that uses Kaitsu’s techniques?
The archbishop looked up at the ceiling.
He seemed to be looking not at the ceiling but at the sky beyond.
“The current world is certainly rich. There are convenient tools and power. If you believe in, follow, and conform to the white doctrine, you can live smoothly. However, the original world is not lacking.”
At the end of his speech, the archbishop looked at the leaders of the red and yellow teams.
“Also. The White Doctrine is never perfect. If it were, people like you and me wouldn’t have come out.”
“…Why did we end up like this?”
The red team leader said, looking at the twitching cell in his hand.
“As you may have guessed, I’ve lived a long time and seen a lot of literature, but I don’t know everything. But if I were to guess, I think it’s one of two things. Either the white everything is cursed, or it’s a reactionary phenomenon.”
“Rebound?”
The archbishop nodded his head.
“If the Goddess is alive, the guess is that all white people are using their power to prevent her appearance, and the aftermath may have had an impact. It is in the same context as the appearance of those who have become gray. Perhaps the goddess is resisting. “To do this, you chose to be his believer, and you who became his believer may have become that way.”
“Because you distrust the white doctrine.” The archbishop who said that looked at me this time.
“Whatever happened. There is only one thing to do.”
He bent his waist 90 degrees towards me.
“You usurper who has appeared for the first time in thousands of years. Please destroy everything white that mocks and curses us.”
[The Black Church’s friendship level has increased to its maximum.]
[Limited summons rights. You have obtained the ‘Black Church Summon’.]
“Ah. Stop doing it!!”
A usurper who fights against God!
I feel so excited!!
The game is the best!!
Haha.”
The archbishop chuckled, lifting his hips at my reaction.
Moment. A huge black spear was held in the archbishop’s hand.
He thumps with a spear! I hit the floor.
Rumbling…
Behind the statue of the goddess. The space I thought was just a wall was a mess. Split apart
Whiooooo-
A snowstorm is raging beyond the wall.
The archbishop pointed beyond the blizzard.
“If you walk straight out of that exit, you will reach the land where all white things reside. There is a major elevator that leads to the white star.”
Beyond is the road that finally leads to the final boss!!
However, the archbishop trails off.
“…But. The road ahead is too harsh.
The archbishop’s gentle voice became cold.
At the sight of eyes that were truly worried about us, the excited atmosphere disappeared and silence fell.
“What on earth is there?”
The archbishop groaned in response to the Blue Tower’s question.
“I haven’t seen it in person, but they say it will be extremely painful.”
“Extreme pain…?”
As the owner of the blue Tower muttered, the archbishop continued.
“However, it is said to be a ‘mental’ pain, not a physical pain. There is a document that states that some beings who tried to see the Great Elevator directly before His Majesty blocked the door had their minds destroyed while trying to cross that snowy field.”
Geumtap stock gurgled. He swallowed dry saliva and made an anxious face.
At that time, Euntapju spoke in a sharp voice.
“Are you sure there is such a thing as a major elevator in the first place?”
“Yes. The brother who infiltrated the White Legion as a spy confirmed its existence.”
The archbishop said while we were talking loudly.
“So, gentlemen, I suggest, why not get some rest before you embark on this harsh path?”
“Waaah-!”
“Uuuh…!”
Exclamations echo from all over.
I want to hear a woman’s exclamation.
“Ugh… The water is good.”
“Whew.”
“Heh…”
“Uhm…!”
In each order, it is the voice of the Red, Blue, and Gold Tower Lord.
The guys’ satisfied voices. I didn’t want to hear it.
We are now in the hot springs.
As I soak in the smoky hot springs, all my fatigue seems to melt away.
There was even a tray floating in the hot springs, and the small drinking glass on the tray contained the high-end liquor ‘Sapphire’.
Hard fight. Depletion of mental strength. As I take a hot hot spring bath and drink alcohol while my body is in disarray, I begin to faint one by one.
Drinking in hot springs. I know it’s very dangerous.
What. It would be okay since they are powerful men in a fantasy world.
I enjoyed it for a bit and then got up.
But Geumtapju looks at me, and also at Gogan.
…?
…!!
“You bastard! Was it that way?!”
“?…? …!! Oh, no! That’s not true! I heard the rumor is that it’s really big, so I wanted to see if it was true… It’s big-!!”
When Geumtapju saw my crotch, his mouth dropped open.
“Heh.”
I have good storage capacity, so this situation is nothing.
I can’t believe I’m just amazed by something like this. What a kid.
Please note that it is a little bigger, don’t misunderstand. It got bigger while imagining my lover’s body.
Maybe it’s because of my mood, but other people seem to look at me with envy and jealousy.
“Tsk.”
Jeoktapju clicked her tongue as if he didn’t like her.
Drunk with a sense of victory, I said enjoy myself and got out of the bathhouse.
When I came out to the locker room, there was a clean gown prepared so I put it on right away.
The clothing and equipment we used were taken care of, washed, and maintained at this facility.
Not only is it spacious, it is equipped with everything, and we can truly build our own state-of-the-art facilities if we wish, so we truly enjoyed the first time in a long time.
I heard that making drinks is easy because there is data, but making snacks is difficult because there is no data.
Someday, I want to feed the beings of the white world full of snacks.
I put a straw in my coffee milk, sucked on it, and came out of the locker room.
“Oh?”
“Hmm?”
At the sound of the voice, I looked to the side and saw Teiria pushing her wet hair behind her neck.
She may be a bitch, but she’s pretty.
Tayria grinned at my gaze.
“Why do you look at me like that~?”
“Because you look great.”
“!!”
She pursed her lips as if she didn’t know how to speak directly, but then said as if it was obvious! She laughs
But after that. L in the women’s locker room. Nelf. Marie and others walked out.
I pointed at them and said,
“But those three are much more beautiful.”
“Hey!!”
Tayria screamed.
For your information, Elle twisted her body when she heard what I said, and Marie cleared her throat as if she was embarrassed, even though she said she felt bad.
And Nelf… Approached me and spoke hesitantly.
“Yes, is it pretty…?”
Is it because her hair, which was usually tied up neatly, was loose?
The silver-like white hair is shiny and loose, giving it a unique charm.
Nelf may have a small chest, but otherwise he has golden proportions, and his face is very pretty with a hint of nobility.
I gave a thumbs up.
“Yes.”
“…Aha.”
Nelf smiled shyly, tucking his hair behind his ear.
I’m glad you seem to like it.
At that time. The Homun who had just come out looked at me and Nelf in turn and gasped. It took her breath away.
“No way?”
“?”
What can be expected?
But Homun. I didn’t really notice it because I usually only wear men’s clothing, but my breasts are really big.
“Tsk. Leader!!”
This time it’s a white rabbit.
When she saw me, her whole body turned bright red and then suddenly!! She ran away
Why are you like that?
After washing up, it was dinner.
Meat. Rice. Bread. Soup. Soup. Seafood. Even desserts. There was nothing missing.
Everyone was heavily drunk and talking loudly.
The wizards, who were usually on the noble side, played shoulder to shoulder with the red team, yellow team, and even the Mabing tribe.
Unlike before, the white rabbit, who had been in a strange state before running away, now stayed right next to me and poured me drinks, but before I knew it, L and Nelf came next to me and tried to pour me drinks, so I declined.
As a lecturer, I can’t just serve drinks to students!!
“Is my drink good? West?”
West?
The White Rabbit called me by a strange title and laughed, then looked at El and Nelf.
Elle trembled with anger, her hands shaking. Nelf slightly lowered his head, saying…
As I was watching with anxious eyes, as if El and the White Rabbit were going to fight at any moment, I heard the sound of wizards talking from a little distance away.
“Ah… By the way. These dishes are great, but yours was also delicious.”
“Can you keep making them when I return? Of course, I will pay you.”
“Sure!!”
“The compensation has been paid. You too, improve our magic tools. Will you take care of it?”
“Ah. “Is that true?”
It seemed that wizards no longer had boundaries between towers and schools.
In a life-and-death fight, they cooperate, combine techniques, and understand each other’s studies. They seemed to be very close.
Tower owners did the same.
Although they felt a bit awkward in this atmosphere, they still shared a drink with each other.
Geumtopju, the mood maker, poured drinks for all the tapjus and then sat down next to Euntopju.
Oh? No way?
“Lord Silvertap. There’s something I’ve been thinking about.”
“Ah. I’ve confessed.”
“? No. That’s not it. If you look at the color of the tower, shouldn’t I be blonde and the Lord of the Silver Tower have silver hair? Why is it the other way around?”
“?”
How can you be serious about having a conversation like that?
A likable guy.
The tower owners got along quite well.
Even Kranium.
The only ones who have a bad relationship are the Blue Tapju and the Red Tapju.
The two didn’t even talk to each other, but considering that they growled every time they saw each other, sitting together was an amazing thing in itself.
However, there was only one person who could not fit into this happy atmosphere, and that was Erilgear.
I whispered to Elle.
“Could you please lighten the mood for her too? She’s sullen during the expedition and it’ll be a problem if she doesn’t show her skills.”
“Okay! Hehe. It tickles Dre. Ehehehe.”
The slightly drunk Elle who laughs when I whisper in her ear is cute.
“Yes!! I will work hard!”
Then Nelf stood up, without her asking, and she went first to Aryl Gere.
At first she was a sullen Eryl Gere. Indeed, Nelf. The two were soon having a lively discussion with each other. Soon L also joins in, and the three of them chat happily.
The banquet is ripe. We play together regardless of faction.
The talent show also began.
The most powerful thing was Geumtapju’s song.
He sang it much better than I expected.
The one I liked best was Teiria. Erylgear. L. Although it was Nelf’s dance.
Even though you were a noble person, when did you practice dancing?
If they were an idol group, they would have become legends.
So we went for a day. I had time to recharge.
For your information, I was blocked by Homun and Garcinido before I could even lift dumbbells with my dick, which was my talent for conversion.
Holy shit! Why!!
“Good luck. We’ll be waiting for you to call us. I’ll say this again out of anger, but beware of the White Weapon Corps.”
The archbishop saw us off.
I wanted to go with him from the beginning, but he said he would call the Black Church to clean up this temple.
They can’t leave their goddess’ temple dirty like this.
I tried to persuade him in many ways, but I couldn’t convince him that it was a mandatory game event, so in the end we decided to leave on our own.
Whiooooo.
A cold snowstorm. A pure white snowy field welcomed us.
We are fully prepared with items that increase cold resistance, thick clothes, equipment, and magic combinations.
The Archbishop said there were no monsters, but he also prepared a battle combination to prepare for any unexpected situation.
After yesterday’s rest, everyone was in good spirits and their steps were light.
After walking for about an hour, a strange place appeared.
Even though I could barely see anything until now, it was strangely clean. There is a snowy field that looks like a lake.
From what I heard, this is the site of the ‘Snowfield of Nightmares’ that the Archbishop spoke of.
Everyone looked at me.
As expected, I took the first step, but there were others who moved before me.
They were young men, including Geumtapju.
Among them were the Red Team and even the Marving tribe.
Hehe. Mr. Dre. We will break through, so please come in peace~”
“That’s right. You’ve worked hard so far, right?”
“Devil, please leave it to me!”
“Leader! “I just need hot rice!!”
I feel proud as a captain.
And when they had moved about 30 steps.
Rattling.
They stopped.
And after 1 second.
Dump! Slurp!
Team members collapsed on the snowy field.
I stopped the wizards from rushing away with my hand.
They didn’t die.
But…
“Ah, ahhh. I’m sorry. Dad. Dad.”
“Hike. Hike. Hike… No, I didn’t steal your paper on purpose…”
“Monster… No, Mom. I. I’m a monster…”
“I… I didn’t want to pollute the world…”
“I’m sorry for eating you, human… I… Hehe…”
They rolled up like babies, streaming down tears and snot.
They were trembling unusually, and we brought them to mind using floating magic and moved them between us.
About 5 minutes later. Geumtapju was the first to come to his senses.
He looked around, gasped for breath, and crawled back.
“I can’t do it… I, I can’t do that… I can’t do that!! Even if I beat you to death, I can’t go away!!”
You have child-level language skills.
With tears and snot pouring down his face, he seemed like he really didn’t want to set foot on that snowy field again.
Fear. Anxiety is contagious.
Although everyone was mentally prepared, there were faces that said they had seen a sight beyond their imagination.
“Hmph. What is this thing!!”
Kranium raised his voice and walked away.
And after just a few steps, he fell! I got down on one knee.
Pop. Tdu-duk-duk.
Cranium, cold sweat running down his face.
“No… I didn’t mean to marry you, but when I was in a position to take responsibility for you, then…”
I never thought even Kranium would do that.
By the way. Is that right? I get it.
There is a kind of trap set in front of this that inflicts mental attacks, and the intervals are random.
“Ha…”
Hwangtapju rose into the air with a look on his face that he really didn’t want to do, flew, and then slowly fell down from the sky.
Hwang Tapju landed on the snowy field as light as a feather, probably because he had cast a spell in advance, and even had foam at his mouth.
“Ugh. Ugh… Now, I didn’t know you would commit suicide. I, I… I… Need to show my dignity as a leader… I’m sorry…”
Even the tower owners are like this.
A heavy silence fell.
None of those who set foot on the snowy field have yet recovered enough to move.
Everyone looks at each other.
Is this correct? Faces.
So I stepped forward.
“Wait! Wait Dre! If you, the commander here, become incapable of action…!”
“Lord Dre!”
I felt that Homun and Garcinido were trying to catch me, so I ran faster.
If.
If…
…If it shows memories of the past.
If it shows a memory of some regret from the past.
Rattling.
It sounded like that.
And.
Pure white space.
“…”
“…”
I am silent.
And a man lying in front of me.
Dad.
He was glaring at me with fierce eyes.
This is the scene I was most afraid of.
The scene I wanted to see the most.
Right before my death, my father, who was glaring at me, was right in front of me.
