Chapter 392 – 111. Unir, Goddess of Darkness (2)
At the top of the World Tree, the battle between Unir and Knoia began.
No one in the party opened their mouths. I watched the battle between a god and an evil god against him for several hours.
The condensed magic created by Unir attacked Knoia as it was. Knoia shouted.
Kyaaaaa
Even the already disembodied party trembled at the terrible scream.
‘It’s an unbelievable Magi…’
Perhaps if the magi I create is just a small stream.
The magic created by Unir was like an ocean that covered 70% of the world. Compared to that demon, the breath I created couldn’t even be called a degraded version of that demon.
Lillia held my hand tightly.
“Younir is the creator of the demons. She’s a literal goddess, so you don’t have to be too displeased. Mr. Julian.”
I think Lilia read my thoughts. Although she was a little resentful, Lilia was right.
Perhaps, this place where Yunir manifested is the earth and the present world. So you won’t be able to use all of God’s power.
Even so, the space around the World Tree seems to be collapsing, and the demonic energy is pressing down on all sides.
Although it was still one day.
The jet-black magic created by Yunir covered all directions, even blocking the sun. A temporary solar eclipse created a night around.
Even though she borrowed the appearance of Lucia, and therefore a human, in order to manifest on the ground. What Yunir was doing was already a miracle beyond humanity.
So, in fact, against Yunir, the feeling of awe is much higher than the jealousy felt when seeing a strong man. Because I have thicker blood as a demon.
Unir in front of me was a real goddess to me.
So, in fact, what’s fueling my sense of victory right now.
Against that transcendent being Unir. Because Knoia wasn’t pushed at all. No, rather, Knoia was overwhelming Unir.
Chiyiyiik-
Knoia, a giant snake that can reach over 100m.
Half of his torso was blown away by Unir’s attack, which was like a breath a while ago. Soon, a very thick magical spirit gathered in the body that flew away. The grotesque body was regenerated.
Kyaaaaa
Opening its huge, regenerated mouth, the pillar-like fangs of the Great War were revealed. Just like that, Knoia bit Unir.
Gripping support weave-
Although Magi’s shield quickly wrapped Unir. The demonic power formed on the fangs like an aura destroyed the very strong shield.
Aaaaa-
Just like that, Knoia’s fangs hurt Unir’s body. Although Magi gathered to the wound and healed it. It was clearly an effective hit.
The Dark Goddess was suffering from Knoia like that. I felt bitter resentment towards Knoia as her creature.
‘That’s the enemy I have to deal with… Shit.’
A huge demon power that overwhelms even the demonic energy of the main god Unir. Not only that. With Yunir’s shield broken, Knoia also turned her body around in no time.
Knoia, who has become a monster in the form of a 3m tall man.
To think that the magical powers gathered in his arm changed like a huge spear. Once again, it rushed towards Unir’s body.
Cacan-
Yunir also drew her sword and parried the spear. I’ve seen the demon’s swordsmanship once through Remiella.
The swordsmanship used by that demon god. The level of swordsmanship I knew was high enough to exceed Atlin’s swordsmanship.
However, even Unir’s swordsmanship was unable to counter Knoia’s attack.
‘I’m upset. Unir is suffering from such an insignificant thing…’
The expression of Cecilia, the same dragon, was similar to mine. Even the other human companions. Feeling Unir’s inferiority, he was making a gloomy expression.
Once again, the huge demon power created by Knoia’s spear. It was swung towards Unir.
***
Knoia’s blow.
In that blow, not only the world tree but also the city shook as if an earthquake had occurred. That moment when even the air is shaking as if it were being torn apart.
“Goddess!”
Seven allies appeared belatedly around Unir. They blocked Unir’s blow once at the same time.
Dragons and elves. Dwarf. Although the appearance resembled a demon. Instinctively, I could feel that they were beings that transcended demons.
‘That elf. Is it Louisil?’
I always borrowed Emily’s figure. Although the appearance was quite different. A beautiful elf with azure hair stood out.
“They are Master Unir’s apostles. Those are the 7 demon dukes.”
Lillia was right. The grand dukes who were supposed to be fighting against the transcendent monsters summoned by Knoia joined for the sake of the goddess.
“I’m fine, so the people of this city…”
“Mother! With our own strength… We couldn’t stop the demonic apostles. There is no one left in this city now.”
Among the seven grand dukes, the dragon with jet-black scales spoke. Instinctively, I knew he was the Grand Duke of Wrath.
“Is that so… Even this city…”
“But we will definitely protect Mother! For that ugly beast to hurt her mother…”
The demon dukes all wrapped up Unir. Knoia overpowered even those seven grand dukes.
Aaaaa-
Among them, the arms and legs of one of the demon grand dukes were blown away by Knoia. Even the other grand dukes were instantly mortally wounded by Knoia’s spear.
Unir exclaimed.
“On your part, you can’t stop that chaos itself, the old mankind! Everyone back off.”
“No! All of us will protect Mother even at the cost of sacrifice!”
Papa Papa Papang-
However, the magic created by Unir pushed the grand dukes far away.
“Mother! No!”
“Even I can’t deal with that Witchbeast now. If it’s to stop that Knoia, that’s the only way…”
“No, Mother!!”
In an instant, Yunir condensed all his demonic energy into his body. The huge attraction created by the condensed magic drew Knoia to Unir.
“Mother! What are you doing!”
The Grand Duke of Fury roared. I desperately tried to get closer to Yunir. The magic shield made by Unir imprisoned the grand dukes.
At that moment, Lilia said.
“Younir… Is trying to seal that Knoia in his body.”
With the intuition of a saintess. Lillia seemed to know what Unir was up to. And Unir shouted.
“The moment I sealed that demon with my body, I could no longer exist as a goddess. I will share my godhead with you. My children who exist on earth… You guys take care of them so that the demons don’t lose their magic.”
“Mother!!!”
All the grand dukes screamed desperately. Yunir, as strong as that god’s will was, he couldn’t move his body even a little.
“Even if I succeed in sealing that demon beast, I can’t suppress all of that huge grudge… So while I suppress that grudge with my body… I’ll have to leave the rest to Jedin. But… Not even that Jedin will be able to destroy this Knoia.”
Kyaaaaa
Unir hugged Knoia.
Although Knoia resisted desperately. Unir’s huge will, which had turned into a mass of demonic energy, was swallowing Knoia.
At that very moment, the party heard Unir’s last words to the demon archduke.
“In the future, when Knoia is resurrected… The saint of destiny… Who will stop its evil will… The saint of destiny who will carry on with Jedin’s will… You must…”
And that moment. The space around it crumbled like pieces of glass.
At the same time I lost consciousness.
***
I came to my senses.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the red gate through which the party first entered. I hurriedly checked the status of the party.
Did everyone temporarily lose their mind like me? He had a hazy expression on his face, as if he had just woken up.
‘Fortunately, no one is missing.’
One by one, the two came to their senses. Lilia, whose expression looked relatively normal, approached me.
“I feel like I’ve come out of the memories of the past. It seems like it is still the 6th temple underground.”
She was right.
I can feel the magical power from the surroundings. I couldn’t feel Knoia’s demonic power, which was sharp enough to tear my body apart.
And while I was briefly unconscious. He recalled the end of Unir, which passed by like a dream.
“Younir sacrificed himself not only for the demons, but also for us humans…All life on earth.”
I nodded at Lillia’s words.
Even she, the goddess of darkness. It was impossible to defeat Knoia, who was united with the old man’s bitter grudge. In the end, Unir’s choice was to seal Knoia in his body.
It was tantamount to giving up oneself as a god.
“The terrible magic power must have contaminated the goddess.”
Although Knoia was sealed with the power of God. She had no choice but to lose her godhood because of her Knoia’s resentment and her magical spirit power.
And even if you suppress Knoia with Magi. Knoia’s power of chaos was too strong.
“If we left her goddess alone, Knoia would have swallowed her goddess on the contrary… Did you see Julian-sama too? Those four seals… No, five seals?”
Tears formed in Lillia’s blue eyes.
I also nodded towards Lillia as I recalled the end of Yunir that I had seen.
“Yeah. Jedin and the six gods under his command took the body of the goddess who sealed Knoia…”
Even Jedin, the god of light, could not annihilate Knoia forever. So Jedin and the 6 subordinates made a decision.
They used the power of a god, and cut Yunir’s body into five parts.
‘With the seal divided like that, I’ll be able to suppress Knoia’s magical power.’
It was because Knoia’s magical power was too great to be sealed in Unir’s body.
By the power of the gods, Unir’s body was sent to various parts of Island.
East west south north. Four of the five divided bodies were scattered over the greatest distance. Knoia’s magical powers were separated so that they could not unite again.
“Even that god’s seal. It seems that in the current era, the magic power can no longer be suppressed.”
“Yeah. Mr. Julian.”
“And those four seals that have been broken are…”
“Yes. Those are the four chaotic gates that appeared in Island 100 years ago.”
Like Lillia said. It was the moment when the secret of the Keiatic Gate was unraveled.
A part of Knoia that was sealed by borrowing Yunir’s body. The form in which a part of it was released back to Island is the Chaetic Gate.
It was the source of the witchcraft.
The rest of the party listened in silence to the explanation of the two. Then Chloe raised her hand and asked a question.
“For a moment. You said that Jedine divided Yunir’s body into five parts. If so, the rest of the body… The fifth seal, is it in Nine Emperor’s Island?”
Like Chloe said. There were a total of five Chaotic Gates in Island.
Exactly 20 years ago, a new Keiatic Gate appeared in Old Hwangdo. And that Keiatic Gate was sealed by my parents, Lucifer and Agnes.
“The gate of the old imperial island is… Julian-sama’s parents. The ruthless Demon King and the Great Saint sealed that Keiatic Gate.”
“But it is strange. No matter how much the two of them are evaluated as beings beyond human beings. Still, with human power, how can the magic power that was barely able to be sealed through the body of the main god…”
Chloe was right.
If the Keiatic Gate could be sealed with human power, then other Keiatic Gates would have tried to be sealed as well.
To that question, Lilia answered right away.
“That’s because the fifth seal, unlike the other seals, hasn’t been completely released yet.”
Lillia’s explanation continued. Unir’s body. A seal made of that five-half body.
The fifth and final seal among them is different from the four seals that have already been released. It is said that the seal still exists without being completely broken. Said Lilia.
At that moment, I realized the truth about the 6 underground temples.
“Pantheon Academy. The final seal remains in the 6 underground shrines. Unir’s body that sealed a part of Knoia.”
“Yeah. Julian. 6 temples underground. No, Pantheon Academy itself has maintained the fifth seal all this time!”
Lillia was right. At that moment, the system’s notification window was activated.

—————–
At the same time as the notification window. Strong demon power began to be concentrated in this place, like the inside of a huge temple.
“That’s, no, that’s Unir?”
At Lillia’s words, everyone stared into the temple’s empty space. From there, a woman with long black hair and black wings descended.
I met the woman and her eyes. She opened her mouth and spoke to me.
[It has finally arrived. Saint of destiny. Julian von Reinhardt.]
