Chapter 522 – #110_Deep Sea Witch (2)
#522
One.
Fight over.
No, Leruye had no consciousness that this was a fight.
Even though she has not yet completed the ‘trial’ to fully utilize the stigma, her opponent is a half-penny witch who pretends to be a witch.
The difference between the two was stark even if they wore strange armor or pulled out a strange ribbon and performed tricks.
The tidal wave flooded by Rruhe was both a shield and a mace, and an overwhelming disaster that wiped out all remaining skills.
It took only 30 seconds to subdue it like that.
“Minister of Foreign Affairs Lakenlaken….”
Leruye walked to the spot where the kraken had disappeared and swept her ground.
The huge torso was crumbled, but something like thick slime still remained.
Leaving behind this sticky, unpleasant bodily fluid, Lakenlaken is indeed dead.
Depressed.
Angry.
To be honest, unlike Levi and Ringbacourt, he was not a familiar to L’ruhe because of his ugly appearance.
It is for the same reason that she dared to give Raken Raken’s fish tank to the Witch of True Ancestry who demanded the fulfillment of the oath.
However, it is the Kraken who has worked diligently as Nukelaby’s servant for over a thousand years.
Because she handed over her fish tank without much thought, her life was taken by unknowing things.
The few memories with Lakenlaken pass through Rruhe’s head.
The thing that made my body like a slide so I could ride a sled with the crew.
When I released it to the sea after a long time, it rushed to Akula, saying that it was nice to see it, so the port side collapsed and the torpedo room was flooded.
The thing that destroyed her beloved whale grave.
And….
“…….”
I don’t have that many memories, but anyway, that’s not what’s important.
“I will hold a grand state funeral to comfort your soul, and I will erect a tombstone with your heroic story in the deepest sea. I will create a military song honoring the last battle of valor and have the crew sing it.”
Leruye stood up after commemorating Kraken with tears in his eyes.
Anger took precedence over guilt.
It wasn’t enough that he dared to brutally murder the foreign minister of the great kingdom of Akula, and one of the criminals escaped.
-Chack!
Leruye grabbed the man’s trouser dance that was floating at her feet and lifted it up.
A weak man who lost his mind after being beaten by one wave.
“Say it. A male witch.”
When I only heard about it, I wondered where another impostor had appeared, but it was a guy who knew how to do a lot of tricks.
Especially to the point where I was shocked to see that the woman was teleported in an instant.
“… Hmm….”
Leruhe looked at the man’s face, which was soaked in water like seaweed.
“It’s half and half.”
In fact, the only men I’ve seen so far are those from old black-and-white films.
It was the first time I had seen a man so close to a man other than the crew.
Even that crew member was a familiar horse that had been neutered, a fisherman.
Leruhe, who had been contemplating whether or not to hold his breath for a long time.
Still, it’s a fairly rare thing.
If you use it well, it seemed useful somewhere.
Leruye returned to Akula with a man from Juseomjuseom.
2.
“Okay….”
A headache that feels like your skull will split.
I woke up feeling a throbbing headache from the abnormally high intraocular pressure.
“Wow… !”
When he coughed, a handful of salty seawater gushed out and flowed back into his nostrils.
A sharp pain runs through his body as if he had been bruised from several consecutive coughs.
I waited for the pain to subside and looked around.
I don’t know what else, but one thing is for sure.
That it is hanging upside down like drying fish now.
For some reason, my head felt particularly painful.
“Where are you again….”
It was difficult to identify because of the upside down view and darkness, but once I got used to it, I was able to take a closer look inside.
A dark room about 5 pyeong.
Because of old pipes protruding from every corner and rotary valves stuck in places, the usable space seems very narrow.
Next to the old iron door with a small glass window pierced, a bare-framed three-story bed was barely tucked away, and a half-open cabinet revealed a desolate interior.
There was nothing else to see, but Siu naturally came up with the word barracks.
To make a more over-the-top guess, it looks like a cabin for the navy on board.
It is also quite old.
“…….”
So let’s check the situation now.
Why did you come here? Reminisce from
Fight with Deneb in the fishbowl to defeat the Kraken.
Later, she was confronted by an angry witch of the depths.
Siu, who gave priority to Deneb’s escape, confronted her witch, and was terribly defeated.
My last memory was the sight of a wave the size of a house hitting my entire body without a chance to escape.
If so, he must have been caught and imprisoned.
I don’t know what kind of witch the deep sea witch is.
All we know is that Paola Xochitl caused a stir in the middle of Seoul with her courtesy, Dagon’s Flute.
“… I haven’t done anything.”
She soon realized that there were no restrictions placed on her body.
Only a flimsy chain is tied to her ankle.
Although she had only a small amount of remaining magic power, she was clearly moving according to her will.
Judging from the flow of magical energy seen through the left eye, reinforcement magic was being applied to the entire building.
Naturally, I thought that some kind of action would have been taken against Siwoo, so I was rather embarrassed.
It was a lax method of confinement even after staring at Siwoo’s ability to use magic.
– Iron gruck!
He created a dagger with his shadow, cut off the thick chain, and landed lightly through the fall technique.
My bones are still aching, but it’s not the time to cover hot or cold rice.
Clinging to the door, I peered outside through the narrow window frame.
It seems that the guess that it was inside the ship was correct.
It’s very similar to the corridor of the container ship we walked through when we fought Bianca the other day.
After observing the trend for a while, Siu carefully opened the door and came out.
If anything, he tried to unlock the lock through the shadow, but the door wasn’t even locked.
“…….”
The defense was weak enough to be believed even if it induces escape.
My heart is pounding because I had to do an infiltration mission out of nowhere.
Dried saliva flows into the throat, which has been dried by the seawater.
I don’t know if it means much, but I went out into the hallway as quietly as possible.
When you peek through a narrow window, you can see the entire scene that was not visible.
One word would suffice to describe its interior.
Corridor of the submarine.
An unknown mechanism protruding from the ceiling to the passageway, probably to make the most of the cramped space.
In terms of length, it was a very long corridor, but it was narrow and the ceiling was low, so it felt completely enclosed.
A bundle of tentacles extended to each part of the engine supplied mana, and the intermittent sound of steam and bubbling bubbles could be heard.
“A submarine out of nowhere….”
Only then does the poor defense feel a little understandable.
If this was really a submarine, it would be the hardest prison cell in the world to break out of.
“Bloom.”
At the risk of putting a little strain on her body, she uses repeated amplification of magical power.
The whole body was covered with armor.
-Uuuuu
As soon as the armor is put on, the hallway starts to move.
It was not a physical movement.
Instead, the pipe in the hallway began to draw in mana, just as the digestive system that received food secreted gastric juice.
The shadow that was woven in the form of armor is sucked into the magic.
Armor that is torn apart in an instant.
The pipe, which had ravenously drained mana, started operating again with a quiet noise, as if it had never done so.
Siwoo looked left and right in a cold sweat.
“Can there be no countermeasures….”
The magnetized magic within the body and the small knives seemed to be overlooked, but even if the scale of the magic increased even a little bit, ‘digestion’ began without any fuss.
It is unreasonable to keep the armor under such conditions even if it can be repeatedly amplified.
“Whoa….”
I wiped the cold sweat from the tension with the back of my hand.
At this point, wouldn’t the other side be aware of all the movements?
It doesn’t look like a normal submarine at all.
Anyway, being stuck in that alcove didn’t make a sharp number.
If you see that they didn’t take their lives or that they were put there carelessly, they probably didn’t intend to harm them right away.
When you can move freely like this, you need to gather as much information as possible.
Follow the dimly lit lights to explore the hallway.
Most of them were similar to the room Siu stayed in, and there were quite a few of them.
There are hatches and ladders that go down in the middle of the corridor, and there are rooms filled with equipment that you can’t tell what kind of machines they are.
Even in a bleak space filled with steel plates, valves, pipes, lights, and machines, the atmosphere changed completely as we climbed the twice-curved iron stairs.
A wide open hall, fluffy carpet, and scarlet halogen lighting welcomed me.
There was even a chandelier, though not very fitting.
At this level, I would believe that it is not a submarine, but a luxury liner from an old movie.
-………………
A hall welcoming Siwoo and spaces separated by antique wooden walls.
Among them, there was a buzzing sound.
He hurriedly pressed himself against the wall, holding his breath.
A view of the interior can be seen through the slightly open door.
At first glance, it looks like an old hotel lounge, where a deep-sea witch and about 30 half-human, half-fish monsters are wearing military uniforms.
Even Siura, who had no military knowledge, recognized that it was a Soviet military uniform.
“Today, we. Lost the most loyal substitute Rakenlaken. He was more honorable than anyone else, and he served the kingdom without neglecting his duties.”
“Whoa… Whoa… Sobbing….”
“Dark black….”
“Except… Foreign affairs… Instead….”
Lakenlaken?
Maybe the Kraken’s name is Lakenlaken?
I am dumbfounded by the amazing naming sense.
If so, it seems that what is happening inside is like a funeral.
“…….”
To be honest, I can’t be sure just by looking at that scene.
What else is the Foreign Minister?
“To commemorate his dedication and sacrifice, a tombstone with merits will be placed in the deepest trench.”
“Ah… Ruler… Have mercy..Low…. Rue… Your majesty…. Hurray… !”
“We will also create a marching song that reminds us of his bravery.”
“Ohh, don’t… Even my heart… Aritawoo… Rue… Your majesty… Long live… !”
“And I will fire a salute.”
“…….”
“Did you not hear? A salute will also be fired.”
“…….”
With the word “Yepo,” A chilly silence descends on the wedding hall, where a solemn flow had flowed.
After that, fishermen get confused.
Seeing them flounder, the witch of the deep sea raises her voice and screams.
“I’m going to fire a salute too! How dare you disobey the orders of a load like the sea!”
“Saturday… Please contact me… Come on….”
“Sun… Nuclear missile… Is yes… Yepo… No… Is….”
“Ah… Yet… Heavy torpedoes… Remain this… There is….”
“West… King’s… Please… Memory… Please do… Soseo….”
“Shut up! Then, when the hell are we going to launch an SLBM!”
“Kill… Please note… Soso language….”
A group of fishermen prostrate themselves in prayer to the witch of the deep sea.
“Hoo?”
“Ah….”
As the heads of the fishmen, who were blocking their vision, lowered their heads, the eyes of Siu and the Witch of the Deep, who were watching the skit, met exactly.
If you look at the before and after, it’s a situation where goose bumps run down your spine, but it’s not enough….
Why was the sweat dripping down my cheeks?
