Chapter 210 – How to Defeat the Final Boss (2)
Since we wouldn’t get an answer right away even if we talked among ourselves anyway, we decided to take a break today on our own.
Except me.
“I don’t want to rely on it, but I think it’s an unavoidable situation right now. I need to talk to Gaia and come up with something.”
After saying this to everyone, I ate dinner and went to bed.
Normally, it would be time to have a hot sleepover with everyone, but right now there is no time for that. We must come up with a way to defeat Chaos Alcatraz as quickly as possible. This is because we never know when Chaos Alcatraz may appear here and attack us.
In order to talk to Gaia, I went into my dreams and desperately cried out Gaia’s name in my mind.
‘Gaia, if you are looking at our situation right now, I think we have a lot to talk about. Please call me right away.’
How much time had passed since I cried out like that and lay down with my eyes closed?
【Jinuni, can you hear me?】
When I came to, I felt like I had fallen asleep before I knew it. It doesn’t seem like much time has passed since I laid down, but I was so tired that I fell asleep for a short period of time.
When I come to my senses and open my eyes, a very familiar scene unfolds before my eyes. A huge gate chained and secured on the ground without even a single blade of grass. It seems that Gaia has answered my call and called me here again.
I turned her head in the direction where I heard Gaia’s voice, and there was a person standing there.
Should we say that there is a being standing there that looks exactly like a human being? Since the only being that will talk to me here is Gaia, the being that looks like this person right now is probably Gaia.
The reason I say this is because Gaia looked a little different from the last time I met her.
Last time, Gaia took on the appearance of a woman, but that was only her form. With her blonde, wavy hair touching the floor, Gaia, who had once appeared to be just a female figure, had now transformed into a fully female form.
Her face, which used to shine like an egg ghost with nothing except her hair, which was completely visible, had now transformed into the face of a beauty that would dazzle anyone who saw it.
Her eyes are slightly drooping at the ends, her golden eyes are shining, her prominent nose, slightly red lips, and even the charm dot under her right eye make her look pretty, but what can I say…
She appears to have the face of a very innocent looking woman. Should I say that in a good way, it means that it is pure, but in a slightly bad way, it looks like it is easy to be deceived?
Considering that his entire body is wrapped in white cloth, which often appears when depicting gods in mythology, he certainly looks like a god when decorated like this.
“I must say it’s been a long time, Gaia. I see you again since she said back then that we should check if there are any Voids in the Kingdom of Aldora.”
【Yes, it is. Even if you didn’t say anything, I was watching everything that happened with Jinunim and the warriors who went there.】
He was watching us fight.
“Then it will be easy to talk about. But before that, the way you looked… Have you regained some of your strength?”
【Starting from the help Jinu and the warriors gave us a little in preventing demons from coming out of the dimensional gap last time, the number of demons trying to come out of Numeron, the dimensional gate, has decreased considerably, and we have been able to recover our strength little by little. This is all thanks to Jinu and the warriors!】
Gaia smiled brightly in response to what I said. Even though I didn’t know her face properly until now, compared to when I heard her talk, she speaks with a bright smile now… She secretly feels even worse.
No, this guy knew we were in a dangerous moment, but he just watched without helping us? In addition, the reason why the number of demons trying to come out of Numeron, the dimensional gate, has decreased may be due to the demons we killed in the last dimensional gap, but that is not the only reason.
I don’t know what method was used, but Chaos Alcatraz appeared in this world without going through Numeron, the door to that dimension. That lead to the story that he could bring other demons here as well, and in fact, I almost saw that scene.
Therefore, there is no need to obsess over Numeron, the dimensional gate guarded by Gaia. But she doesn’t even know that she is a goddess, and right now she is just smiling brightly and thanking me.
“Then… Couldn’t you have helped us a little while we were fighting Chaos Alcatraz?”
【… Ah! I didn’t think about that because I was watching.】
Now I don’t know if this god is stupid, or if she’s just pretending to be stupid to me. Either way, I’m still angry.
“Huh… That means you had the time to come help. What were you doing? You weren’t just watching, were you?”
【Uh… That’s…】
Gaia hesitates, twisting her body as her face turns red at my words.
“You’re not saying you were too busy watching our battle… Are you?”
【Haha…! Sorry…】
Gaia lowered her head and apologized to me. She wonders if this is a horse or a fart…
This god is now telling us that she was so distracted watching while we were fighting Chaos Alcatraz that she didn’t even think of coming to help.
I’m probably saying that I was too busy recovering my strength while watching, but it still makes me angry that we were in such a huge crisis that we didn’t realize it.
Of course, as Gaia doesn’t know anything about the game Elion, he may not know that Chaos Alcatraz has powers that are on a different level from the demons we’ve seen so far, but he can still tell when he sees us having a hard time, and this guy called God. .. It’s so ridiculous that I’m laughing.
In fact, every time we meet, my evaluation of Gaia is decreasing.
Now he thought it was a floor with nothing to fall from, but it was Gaia who reminded him that there could be a floor underneath too.
“Hey, is that what you’re saying? You know that it’s okay for me to curse Gaia right now, right?”
【I feel ashamed. I think I was just focusing on recovering as much as possible and watching Jinnu and the warriors fight against a scary enemy. I needed to somehow recover my strength in order to help Jinu.】
Isn’t there a saying like that? ‘Even though he’s like this, he’s a good kid.’ Called.
It feels like a perfect fit for Gaia right now. Or are you just acting stupid in front of me? Considering how it has looked so far, it doesn’t seem likely at all.
Yes, I definitely want to believe that it’s not acting and it’s just stupid.
I felt like I wanted to curse right now and criticize the actions that had made me frustrated so far, but I decided to hold back.
I can do that later, but I don’t have time right now.
Even if this is a situation where I meet Kaia in a dream, time is clearly passing and even this time is precious, so there is no time to discuss it right now.
“We’ll discuss that later, but let’s talk about the more important things now. When I listened to Chaos Alcatraz, it seemed like he had a fight with Gaia once before. It turns out that Gaia barely pushed him out so he couldn’t enter this world, so it turns out that Chaos Alcatraz It was.”
【I also realized this when I saw the transformation during the battle. I was surprised to learn that the demon I had met at that time, in the shape of a fearsome dragon, had already arrived in this world. To prevent something like that from happening, I was blocking Numeron, the door to that dimension, as much as possible…】
Gaia answered in a crawling voice, pointing helplessly at Numeron, the dimensional gate.
“Can you explain how you fought? We need to gather as much information as possible to defeat him now.”
After hearing what I said, Gaia closed her eyes and began to think deeply.
Still, Gaia has a record of preventing the invasion of Chaos Alcatraz in the past. Just looking at this fact, you get the feeling that she is a god in her own way. We are in a state where we cannot even stop Chaos Alcatraz from coming, let alone defeat it.
If it were Gaia, perhaps she would give us some information that would be helpful in future battles?
【At that time, I was also in Chaos Alcatraz? It was impossible to win a fight with Demon, who was in his dragon form. So, I sacrificed all my strength and a part of this world to barely prevent Chaos Alcatraz from crossing over.】
“What do you mean by part?”
I didn’t understand what Gaia said, so I asked again. I’ve heard before that most of his power was lost, but this is the first time I’ve heard of him sacrificing part of this world.
【Actually, the Arpe Continent is now only about a third of its original size. The demons that had previously crossed over were easily blocked, but the situation took a turn when Chaos Alcatraz appeared. Just like Jinu and the warriors, I couldn’t even do proper damage to that monster and had to suffer it one-sidedly. So, they swept up a portion of the continent, about two-thirds of the land, surrounded Chaos Alcatraz, and then forcibly pushed it out of the dimension.】
