Chapter 248 – 1. Ufuji Room (6)
The monk looked around the village.
I don’t know the exact identity of the non-stone, but I knew from the day that it wasn’t ordinary, and I could clearly distinguish the unique energy of those stones after they were broken, so I slowly wandered around the area included in the village.
It’s not a curse, and it’s not like something evil.
However, no matter how much I thought about that bizarre black box, which gave me an uneasy feeling about something, it didn’t seem like something I could do anything with.
If so, I thought that it is highly likely that one thing alone lacks, and the other thing works together to function, and I investigated the location that fits the direction such as Taegeuk or Samgwa based on the stone and the village.
And will it be like that?
The monk found several more similar rocks.
Rather, is it because one of the formations that make up the camp has disappeared, or are the rocks unable to hide themselves anymore? It blew quite a bit.
If it was before, how could I have missed this feeling and passed it by?
“What are you doing here?”
“Hehe, I guess more time has passed than I thought.”
Looking back, among the people I met yesterday, the goblin was alone.
“Did something happen to the ship? I wonder why you came out alone.”
“It’s not a big deal”
No, if you think about it, is it a big deal?
It’s also a judgment call whether Roa becomes a eunuch or not.
Of course, it is impossible for someone who has reached the level of Loa to become a eunuch so easily.
I’m not sure, but the rock in front of the monk looked similar to the one I saw yesterday.
“Wasn’t it one?”
“Anyway, it seems that only one thing that came out of that rock is not complete, so I looked for other places depending on the direction of the battle. I forgot that I wanted to meet you again today.”
“You don’t have to apologize. We haven’t set a time.”
The monk also said that, huh… After thinking about it for a moment, I really did.
Even the promise of ‘the next day’ was more like a promise to see you next time rather than a proper promise.
Of course, the word ‘next’ in terms of the language indicated the not-too-distant future, so if you interpret it badly, the next day would be correct…
“Suck!”
Nuri raised an aura in her hand and hit the rock once.
Even if it was Tamamo’s hand that didn’t generate any momentum, I thought it wouldn’t be this much since it was a rock that hurt the great youkai’s hand, but the rock slammed so absurdly and powerlessly! And broke it
“Huh?”
“It seems that the defense itself that protected the rock has been nullified and has lost its power.”
Nuri, who was taken aback for a moment, looked at the inside of the broken rock in dismay at the monk’s words.
Inside was a red box.
“Black and red. So, does this correspond to the five directions?”
North is black. Red in the south.
If so, the east is blue. West is white. Finally, it meant that the center was yellow.
“It’s strange. The person who is presumed to have placed this here is a Westerner, so how did they use it?”
“Do you know who did this to this town?”
“There is someone who is not sure but suspicious. He probably isn’t dead now, but he’s been around for 270 years. Because of that, the couple who misunderstood that they coveted a child before had to suffer so much shame and pain.”
At Nuri’s words, the monk stopped asking further questions.
If you have been shamed and insulted, it would also be a shame for someone to know about it.
Perhaps the fact that her body has changed so much has something to do with it.
The monk had a small misunderstanding, but it wasn’t really wrong if you were to go into the causal relationship.
The reason why Yuria became what she is now was because of the things Krea had committed and accumulated, and it wasn’t so wrong.
“If the box is in the location corresponding to the five directions, the location of the rest must be obvious.”
“I guess so.”
What remains is the east and west sides of the town. And central.
“East and west aren’t that difficult, but the center might be a bit more difficult.”
“Why? Isn’t the monk also the head of this village?”
“It’s the same as the village chief, but it’s not the village chief.”
After thinking about what to do, the two decided to head for the village.
The closer we got to the village, the more strange the atmosphere in the village became.
As soon as the monk went to the villagers who were buzzing first, the villagers who saw the monk started to respond.
“Ah, monk”
“Sir, what should I do with this?”
“What is it? Why are you all in such a fuss?”
The villagers were buzzing and talking, and one of them spoke as a representative.
“It’s because a strange ship appeared on the beach in town. It’s the first ship I’ve ever seen, so I don’t know what to do…”
From the words of the villagers, the monk seemed to know what kind of boat he was talking about.
He hasn’t seen it himself yet, but it must be the boat they came aboard as they were requested by the Dragon King.
“Do you remember the old stories of this town?”
“How about an old story?”
“About two hundred years ago, a group of evil came here to look for Yeouiju, but when they couldn’t find it, they did a bad job and left.”
Upon hearing this, the villagers began to tremble in fear.
From people who have heard such words for the first time to those who have heard them from their grandparents or parents.
“Could it be that the assailants came again?”
“Oh…Wasn’t that just an old story?”
“What do you think? We can’t beat it…”
When the monk quietly raised his hand at the sight of the villagers, the murmur quickly subsided.
“Don’t worry. They’re not the ones who came this time.”
“If it’s not them…”
“They are the Dragon King’s apostles who have come to root out the evil they have done in this land. However, they are not the ones who came from the Dragon Palace, but rather they are the ones who came at the request of the Dragon King. And these people also do great things to those who did evil to our village in the past. Don’t be too vigilant since they’re the ones who have suffered and been injured.”
At the monk’s words, the villagers were a bit confused, but their anxiety seemed to have subsided more than before.
“Sir, how can you say that?”
“There was a preference among them. If it was the wicked, would the Shinsoo be with them?”
At that, everyone started to mumble again.
It is said that Shinsoo is together, so it is the first stranger to see it, but the opinion that it can be trusted gradually became the mainstream, and the turmoil began to subside, and soon the group began to slowly disperse one by one.
However, with the large crowd still remaining, the monk thought about it and thought that this was an opportunity, so he quietly asked the people.
“Come to think of it, while I was looking around with the nobles to root out the evil they did to this village, I found out one thing.”
“What is it?”
“It means that the unidentified rocks they built in this village weren’t one. It’s unclear, but it looks like they built a stone in a defense based on the five directions, and the stone in the south has already been confirmed.”
Considering that the previously known rock was a stone from the north. Another one was found in the south. I don’t know why the monk said he built it in the five rooms, but the remaining five rooms…
“East and west. And the center of town?”
“That’s right. I want to take a look at the center of the town. Can you help me?”
Nuri tilted her head from behind to see what the center of the village was like that the monk was doing that.
“Anyway, the key to this is to bring Shinsoo. We’re a bit uneasy.”
“Um…”
The monk thought for a moment, then nodded his head.
“Then, I will go to their ship with my goblin and bring back the divine beast.”
* * * * *
Roa, who was in pain, suddenly remembered what YuRia said.
‘You can’t like it’
‘As long as I can feel the love, it doesn’t matter what the shape is’
‘To be honest, it’s very difficult and painful’
It’s not that she doesn’t like it. But that’s only because the opponent is Loa.
She’s only good for feeling love in it. The act itself is not good.
Basically, Yuria wanted a relationship with her because she wanted to give birth to her own child.
Now that I already have three children, I wonder if I need a relationship anymore.
In fact, it was because I learned from the last conversation that YuRia accepted him only to satisfy her own desires.
Roa let out a sigh at the hand of YuRia, who squeezed her head with a warm expression, as if she had noticed her own thoughts just by her expression.
As expected, Yuria’s fist didn’t hurt at all.
“It can’t be helped. The Loa now is stronger than the Loa of 10 years ago, even if thousands of people attack her, she won’t blink an eye.”
Roa made a slightly surprised expression at those words.
“Really…?”
“After the true awakening of the saintess’s qualities due to the Crea Incident, not only Loa’s basic ability, but also her growth potential has become incomparably greater than before. It’s also the result of this foundation, but in any case, that’s how strong Loa is.”
At that, Loa felt that she could not be trusted a little.
She wondered if 10 years ago she would have been able to defeat 10,000 soldiers on her own.
“If I just shut up and rush at it, I wouldn’t be able to do it, but if I hit and run repeatedly, I’m sure I could win not only 100,000 but also 100,000 by myself?”
At those words, Roa broke out in a cold sweat.
“In the first place, the beings that Loa has dealt with lately are all powerful people who can only be found in legends or myths. All of them are almost impossible to deal with, no matter how many ordinary soldiers there are, and people with special strengths such as knights and wizards must rush in groups to deal with them. They were such beings.”
And… In the case of the ambassador, it was just a monster that was impossible to deal with.
Somehow I don’t know What would happen if a hundred people like Aunt Nell rushed at you?
“And from now on, Tamamo is an existence that needs dozens of people like Aunt Nel Siemre to become something?”
“I-I didn’t know that”
“More than anything else, there is no way Tamamo will be hostile to us, but if Tamamo becomes our enemy, I will absolutely not win even if I ride Talos. I know all my abilities.”
The victory against the eight warriors was also a fight he could never have won if he had known about this side.
Caught off guard, deceived, and caught off guard.
After laying trap after trap and keeping them vigilant until the end, they hit the final dagger and caught it.
No matter how holy the sword was, it would not have been able to kill it if it hadn’t been for the situation where the Eight Armies were consumed as soon as they were consumed.
Just as fire evaporates water that puts out fire, no matter how superior it may be.
“The loa riding Talos has already surpassed Aunt Nel Siemens in terms of power.”
“That’s it?”
“But it’s hard to win, isn’t it? Battles aren’t just about power.”
Roa could feel the strange tone in those words.
“It’s hard to beat” Not “Can’t win”
The fact that he was on Talos meant that he was on an almost equal footing with Aunt Nell.
Regardless of winning or losing, the status that the existence has.
“Of course, without Talos, I’m definitely weaker than Aunt Si-sama. That’s unavoidable even considering the speciality of the power of gravity that Loa realized.”
“That’s what…”
I’ve heard it often, so now I can’t know if I don’t know.
This power that he has awakened to is a power that has an advantage over almost all powers to the extent that even if there is a difference of about one level in the realm of the opponent, the difference can be ignored and dealt with.
In the past, I could only rely on Talos to use it for a quick blow, but now I think I’m using it in a variety of ways.
Come to think of it, it really was.
If you think about yourself 10 years ago and compare yourself to now, what is your life? It was clear that he would not be able to compete with anything more than that.
It can’t fly, but it jumps as high as it does in the sky, and it can glide through the air for a very long time if it wants.
Just by scattering stones with strong gravity in the air, you can see an effect similar to dozens of siege weapons blowing large stones.
Other than that, the things he could do were truly limitless.
However, such physical strength and physical strength…
“Because the aura flows even if I don’t specifically strengthen it with an aura.”
“…”
Then why the hell did my dick get picked?
Having read his thoughts just by looking at his expression, YuRia blushed slightly and averted her gaze slightly.
“That’s right, it’s because only the places where it’s trained are trained. No, someone says they train by pulling it like that!!”
I understood at once.
My crazy energy right now is the same as Yuria’s every day, although there is also the awakening of a hero and a saintess…
“I-don’t think that’s weird!!”
Baek!!!
Oh, this one hurt a little bit.
However, YuRia was also trembling as she held onto her hand, perhaps hitting it a little too hard this time.
So, while Roa and Yuria were filming a non-comte, Tamamo was on the deck of her ship, looking at her village with her awareness blurred.
On that day, after getting rid of that strange rock, a strange feeling began to grow stronger in Maul.
Tamamo still had no idea what that feeling was.
Are you anxious It’s a very strange feeling, whether it’s long or ambiguous.
Because of that, Tamamo couldn’t be more vigilant and was staring at the village.
Are you anxious? Something auspicious or ambiguous.
But for some reason, Tamamo was very anxious.
Because I don’t know what it is.
Or is it because of her ability to feel the stronger heavenly fortune after becoming a Shinsou?
For Tamamo, who had just become Cheonho from Gumiho, everything was too ambiguous.
Then Tamamo flinched and hurriedly looked behind her.
Something…
Something comes
Then Tamamo glanced back at her, then her eyes turned back to something huge coming from the sea beyond.
This anxiety.
It wasn’t because of something inside me.
It was because of something coming from the depths of the sea, aiming for that ‘something’.
“Shit…”
Jumping and doing somersaults, returning to her huge golden nine-tailed body, Tamamo just stood on the sea and stared into the depths of the sea.
“Damn it… 」
How can I do? At this rate, your stomach might break…
However, while Tamamo was so concerned, the ship spread its sails on its own and began to spin its hull on the mud and get out.
Tamamo let out a sigh of relief as she sighed in relief at the fact that no one manipulated her, but she hurriedly dismissed Nuri.
If you are with the monk right now, hurry up and evacuate the villagers.
* * * * * *
“Then, I will go to their ship with my goblin and bring back the divine beast.”
The monk nodded at the words of the villagers and turned to Nuri.
Nuri also nodded, thinking that the villagers’ opinions were valid, and was about to head for the boat with the monk.
“Nuri, if the monk is by your side right now, hurry up and tell the villagers to evacuate! Something is coming from the sea! It’s not as good as the eight great ambassadors, but it’s a monster that can be compared to the four great disasters!!”
Flinch!?
It’s not until the eighth line, but something comparable to the four major disasters?
“Monk!”
“Hmm? Why?”
“Just now, Shinsoo-nim gave a word to evacuate all the villagers.”
The monk also said that. The villagers nearby also tilted their heads.
However, little by little, anxiety began to creep in, as if she felt some anxiety from Nuri’s expression.
“The news is that a mighty monster is coming up from the sea that even Shinsoo-nim can’t guarantee victory for. Hurry up!!”
At those words, the villagers started to stir up a lot.
“Go! At times like this, you need to stay calm! Come on, let’s all disperse to the village and gather all the people together. We’re at the highest point in the area, so we’ll be able to buy some time. After that, let’s decide where to evacuate.”
“Oh, I see!”
“Then I’ll hurry”
After they seemed to have the second most influence in the village after the monk, they scattered, and the monk also began to move his steps in a hurry. However, it was facing east of the village, not the center of the village.
“Monk?”
“Nuri-kun, please help me. I’m not sure, but I think all of this happened because I broke this barrier.”
“Then what are you going to do…”
“If you ate poison, you said to eat even the plate. We need to know what the hell is in this town. That way, wouldn’t anything help the Shinsoo who is trying to stop the monster?”
Nuri was in a daze at those words, and soon began to hurriedly follow the monk.
No. He went ahead of the monk and put out his back.
“Please lift it up. If you tell me about the five rooms, or just the approximate location, I will bring you there quickly.”
“…Please”
* * * * * *
Nuri and the monk went out to figure out what was spreading in the village, while Tamamo growled low and glared at the sea.
The sea, which had been quite calm, began to grow louder and louder, and a storm began to rage.
“Come… 」
Kurung, Kururung… Purr…
Tamamo was nervous at the sight of the sea becoming more and more messy.
In fact, when he was a great ambassador, he only fulfilled his role within the big picture set by his successors. He had no realization that he had fought properly as a heavenly guardian.
In the first place, I thought that if I died, I would die, and I just fought as a piece of the big picture of defeating the ambassador.
However, now, as a truly heavenly guardian, he had to become the main axis and stop this place.
Can I win
In a sense, I became stronger than when I was a monster. In a sense, it has become weaker than when it was a youkai.
That made Tamamo anxious.
The sea began to roar with a roar.
Tamamo sensed a huge presence in such a veil and gathered more and more strength.
How long had it been since they arrived in the East Continent that they had already encountered such hardships?
Sighing inwardly, he violently lowered his front paws, seeing the twinkling eyes in the larger and faster rising swells.
Phuong -!!!
Before the huge sea swell turned into a tsunami and hit the village, Tamamo’s blow shattered the swell, and the aftermath began to fall down, creating white foam with a rumble.
And something that had been driving the huge seawater sprang out of the seawater scattered by Tamamo and roared violently.
『Kwaaaaang!!』
