Chapter 215 – Naa → Rock! I→Rock! (6)
[…Now.]
Miya oh oh…!
Just as the dead body of Ragnar was about to come back to life with a sound like a cat crying, the goddess of fate took out a pair of scissors and cut the thread of his fate. As if it was unacceptable for a mere human to go against the fate of death right in front of his eyes. At the same time as the scissors cut the thread of fate, the energy that had gathered in Ragnar could not penetrate his body and wandered in the air before dissipating in vain.
Ragnar Armageddon’s revival period, 〈 Deliberation – The cat’s life 〉 is blocked by the power of the goddess of fate and cannot perform its role, and it is only after confirming that his heart is no longer beating that Justia smiles on her lips. , He descended from the fantasy space created by his believer to the realm of dreams where he was left alone as a winner full of scars.
[…!]
Yes.
‘The realm of dreams where the scarred winner was left alone’.
The goddess of victory, whose eyes were on the fierce battle between the two, finally realized that another person who should have been there originally had disappeared for some reason. It is none other than the dream demon who brought the two of them from the fantasy space created by Nemu to the realm of dreams. Because the battle between Ragnar Armageddon and Jeong Si-woo is so splendid and daunting, while everyone’s eyes are on them, Victoria belatedly realizes that the evil spirit has disappeared. And…
[Finally, she’s finally able to cut ties with all that damn fishy, gross stuff. She was sick of being put on the same line as some ugly monster. Now, the holy war to completely drive out the old things and open a new era begins. She is the beloved of Lady Luck. The agony of the moment your life ends will soon become the horn that announces the start of war. Consider it an honor to be qualified to be the cornerstone of a new era.]
“…Ha, really.”
However, Justia, who stepped into the sea of u200bu200bthe moon with all sorts of loud expressions, faced what he faced as the wounds caused by his own attacks worsened and weakened, and in addition, he exhausted all his physical strength in a fierce battle with the apostle of evil spirits, and could easily hit his neck at any time. Not like some exhausted human hero…
“I’m the kind of person who can’t live without debt, but someone forced that friend into debt.”
For some reason, she couldn’t find not only the wounds she suffered from her, but even the fatigue caused by the battle a moment ago. Instead, Justia, as the incarnation of Luke’s first incarnation, was more healthy and energetic than when she faced her. Was a hero
Charking.
[…Kuhhh?!]
The ‘Tokisetsu’ he picked out at some point made her ghastly cry, and dozens of slashes struck Justia. Justia, who managed to withstand the attack with the power of authority, stared at the hero with bewildered eyes, far from being exhausted, rather energetic than before the battle.
[Nonsense! It must have been completely drained…! Besides, what the hell did you do to recover even the wounds caused by my powers at once!]
“I didn’t do much. If there’s anyone who did anything… It’s him, not me.”
[What…]
“〈 Review – Reward〉.”
[…?!?!]
At the voice that could not be heard, Justia turned his head in the direction the voice came from. Then, with a face as if he had seen a ghost, he saw the man standing leisurely there in his eyes. However, it couldn’t be. A man who must have died a little while ago when her body was split in half… A man who was prevented from even being revived by the hand of the goddess of fate, how could he stand there so perfectly?
[It must have prevented the goddess of fate from reviving…!]
“First of all, the reason why the guild master suddenly became healthy is because of 〈 Deliberation – Reward 〉. It improves all abilities of the person who possesses it, and in particular greatly increases the durability and vitality of the body, making it almost impossible to die. However, due to its powerful effect As a downside to it, if you die in battle… It’s the power to recover all the wounds and fatigue of the enemies that helped you defeat it.”
In other words, as Jeong Si-woo defeated Ragnar Armageddon in battle, at the same time as he died, all his injuries and fatigue were recovered as a demerit of 〈 Simui – Reward 〉. Contrary to what Justia looked down on, the two were not fighting blindly without thinking about the future. Rather, due to his defeat, Jeong Si-woo recovered all his injuries, and furthermore, the enemy Justia abandoned the space that was advantageous to him… Rather, it was Justia who acted without thinking.
“And the fact that I came back to life… Are you asking because you really don’t know? Not anyone else, but the four years who stole Luke from the Goddess Luminus. Did you let go?”
[…!]
Clearly, the god Justia instigated to interfere with Luminus’ test was Raikirin, the god of lightning. And the god he coaxed and went out with him to sabotage Luminus must be…
[Goddess of Death, Hell…!]
[Answer.]
From behind Ragna Armageddon, who had been revived without a single wound, an eerie, gloomy, busty woman with a ghastly and eerie atmosphere walked out with a bashful smile.
[They told me that my husband was in big trouble, so I hurriedly ran. I’m so glad I’m not late. Isn’t that right, Prince…?♥]
“Yeah, very good. Hell.”
[Hehe…♥ I was praised…♥]
The sullen beauty couldn’t hide her delight, blushing inappropriately for her man’s praise. She was superior to anyone in her life until just a few years ago, but after her death, she forced the wretched ghosts to kiss her feet and ruled over the souls of the dead. To the extent that no one believes the truth.
[This damned corpse girl…! It’s like she fell in love with color too late and gave her all to a human…! Such a goal is like an empty prostitute! Your year is no different from the stupid Tyche!]
“Ugh, it’s a very damn rich year.”
“No, why are you suddenly quarreling with our goddess of fortune? What’s wrong with our goddess?”
[Shut up, you fucking bitches! Just because you guys do that, do you know what will change!]
Justia shouted while drawing out her powers.
[Even if the goddess of death is with you, there are three gods on this side, including me! A bitch playing with corpses, a human serving as an underling of an evil god, and a human being loved by the goddess of luck are not a problem enough!]
“Hey, Justia.”
[Shut up! Do not recklessly call my name on a lowly human subject!]
At the sight of a foolish human being daring to call out the name of a god carelessly, Justia screamed in anger. She’s a human who serves that damn evil god. He was someone who didn’t like anything about his behavior, his attitude, his voice, even his appearance. And just like now, that eerie smile, as if it were laughing at an idiot who didn’t even know he was in trouble…
“From Si-woo Jeong’s recovery to who the God who brought me back to life is. Why do you think I just confessed to you when I didn’t ask for information that I didn’t need to tell you?”
[What…?]
“Why do villains tell me all of my plans with their own mouths? From the benefits of hiding information to the weaknesses of the plan, there are plenty of points that would have been advantageous if not disclosed, so why bother telling the other person? This is when I was a stranger. I didn’t know, but I think I’ll understand a little bit now that I’m the person involved.”
Along with his sneer, someone else’s voice resounded in the silent dream space.
[A prodigal girl whose goal is empty…]
It’s a neutral voice that makes it hard to tell whether it’s a man or a woman, but it’s a voice that contains a feeling of intimidation that makes the listener’s body shrink. And Justia knew the owner of that voice. The quiet surface of the water split on both sides as if opening and closing with a zipper, and a gap appeared between which a man appeared.
[…Uh, why do you…!]
Young middle aged. Just as a woman and a beard do not go together, the word ‘young’ and ‘middle-aged’ do not go together. To be young means to be young, but to be middle aged means to be an old person. However, there was an existence in front of him that laughed at the contradiction. A man whose youth and maturity are in harmony without invading each other’s territory.
[The story I told you a while ago was very interesting. It is a temple that drives out old things and opens the curtain of a new era…]
God of tricks and tricks, deceit and pranks.
The master of magic or the originator of lies.
The one who brings the end of the gods and is synonymous with trickster.
[I was honestly dubious when I heard Ni-ar-Lashotep’s words, but I never thought I would loudly prove all the suspicions to be true with my own mouth. I don’t need to find any more evidence.]
… And Loki, the father of Hel, the goddess of hell whom Justia had called vulgar, put his index finger to her mouth and smiled coldly, as if he didn’t want to hear any more excuses from her.
*
One of the most famous gods in Norse mythology, Loki.
A god who is the root cause of Ragnarok and is deeply involved in the occurrence and solution of all problems in Norse mythology.
The only gods I’ve met so far are the foolish goddess Luminus, the madwoman Justia, and Nia-san, who’s never properly revealed her powers, so I was unknowingly underestimating the power of the gods to some extent. But when Loki appeared in this lunar sea, I had no choice but to admit it. That I have never truly encountered the existence of God.
Every word he spat out lightly, the divinity contained in every word weighs down this space.
[To dream of such a ridiculous plan that even this me alone can’t face it properly, a god like you, dares to push us away. Just because he had the power of a god, did you really think that everyone was an equal god? The time when you gained divine power and the time when your ancestors were human, even if you put it all together, it wouldn’t even take up half of my life? Still don’t know To that friend who is the agent of the most wicked evil spirit, you are absolutely nothing?]
[…Nyarlathotep…! Again, me…! I will never, never forgive you…!]
When Loki mentioned one of Ms. Nia’s names, Justia let out a hysterical scream as if her seizure switch had been flipped, and began to ramp up her powers as a god. But no matter how much power she raised, it never reached Loki. She meant that between her and Loki, there was that much of a gap.
[Not yet, not yet…!]
Suddenly, Justia’s power began to grow. Loki frowned at the sight of him continuing to draw power from somewhere beyond the maximum amount he could originally store, then sighed deeply.
[Really… Did you intend to beat that friend with such a lame trick?]
“Shortcut…?”
Shocked by Justia’s tremendous divine power, Jeong Si-woo expressed his curiosity at Loki’s murmur. And I didn’t say it out of his mouth, but I felt the same way. What kind of shortcut are you talking about?
[Although the power of God seems omnipotent, the limits are clear. But using a creature of another god as a temporary container for one’s power is really foolish. Apostles weren’t originally created for that purpose, but God’s order is losing its power because of humans who once again gained divine power.]
[Noisy…!!]
He used another god’s creation as a container to contain his power… Upon hearing that, I realized what a shortcut Justia was using.
Starting with Luke, the hero of Luminous, Lars the dragon slayer, Momo the magical girl, and the zealots who ran amok in my city and the hounds who prevented me from returning to the city. Come to think of it, the number of those who received Justia’s authority was strangely numerous. I was wondering why he spread his power to so many people when he was not going to fight for the ownership of Atipia, but that was the purpose?
To give an easy-to-understand example…
In a 1L water bottle, no matter how much water you put in, 1L is the maximum. If you add more than that, the water will overflow. Still, if you want to keep more water, you have no choice but to put it in another empty water bottle.
Here, if the water bottle is replaced with a being with the power of a god, and the water is replaced with the power of a god…
Justia deliberately gave away her power to many people, reducing the power she currently possesses. And in that state, he filled up the lack of power by some means, converted it into his own power, and then shared it with others. In that way he continued to increase those with his own powers.
For other gods, an apostle is an agent who receives his own power and moves according to his will, but Justia was different. To her, her apostles were nothing more than a courier who could temporarily share the power she couldn’t hold on to herself, and her battery to draw her energy from at any time. Yes, like now.
She gathers all the power she spreads out to her apostles, and temporarily gathers power beyond the amount she can hold at once. The total amount of power stored like that was not lost at all, even against Loki. How many people have been given the power of the gods, and how many have been exploited to gather that much power…
[With this much power, I can deal with it! Even I, who is only a middle-ranking god, is not lacking at all against a top-ranking god like you!!]
Justia let out a scream, whether it was a scream or a shout, and swung her arm, and the power she gathered turned into a huge sword that fell from above Loki’s head. An extremely gigantic attack, launched with the aim of destroying this realm of dreams itself, in which we are located. However, Loki spoke in a voice that was not at all nervous even as a huge sword that was difficult to contain at a glance was descending over his head.
[No, not enough. That’s a very long time.]
Loki didn’t do anything.
He didn’t have to do anything.
A huge pillar suddenly appeared in the sky and bounced off the huge sword that Justia had thrown. No, looking closely, it wasn’t a pillar. It was so large that I couldn’t recognize it for a moment, but it was covered with scales larger than any number of castle gates… It was the body of a huge snake.
[I can see how many precious things called the power of God have been sprinkled around, and when I scrape them back together, the amount is truly to the point that I can never fall for it. But even if the quantity is equal, do you really think you can beat me in terms of quality?]
Two giant snake eyes appearing in the sky. Even if someone insisted on the moon, that gaze that would not feel awkward at all made Justia’s body firm.
Just as a stone and a lump of gold do not have the same value even if they weigh the same, Justia gathered a lot of power through expedient methods, but her quality did not even reach the tip of Loki’s power.
[A god who spreads his power to anyone is worse than a prostitute who sells himself.]
Loki is the god of mischief, deceit, fraud and lies.
And at the same time, along with Hel, the queen of hell, and the wolf Fenrir, who was sealed by the gods… She is the one who gave birth to Jormungand, a serpent so gigantic that it could wrap itself around the world.
