Chapter 734 – The Sun Covers the Sky (9)
Hand taste is far from a fatal blow.
As soon as I noticed that the enemy was alive, I threw everything away and dashed to the altar where the young dragonfish was stuck. Istetil also ran after me.
The young dragonfish was holding on to its neck in a groggy state. I’m ready to twist it like that. Crazy dog! I’m trying to commit suicide again!
【Gyutribol bitch!】
【Kuu!】
It threw mana to change its form and bind it. He was a strong youngster, but he has the strength to rip off the mana of the beast return even after being hit in the stomach? Cheap pants.
I ran over and pulled out the bruenak with a soccer kick on the kid’s jaw.
─Puck!
The young Yonggary loses strength when the jawbone turns. Barely relieved, I closed one eye and checked the situation under the altar with my clairvoyance. No problem.
Seureung-. Istetil sharpened the blade of the obsidian dagger she had picked up.
【Come on, get up. I’ll be busy from now on.]
【… Doesn’t it look like you’ll be in trouble if I die?]
An idiot whose dinosaur head gradually returns between his Reptilian cousin and the real Reptilian.
All of these savage macho bastards are catching Gao.
─Ouddeuk! I broke the dragonfish’s arms and legs and laid it down. Not even to stop her tongue. If that happened, I couldn’t hear the story, and I didn’t have the vitality to search for it by biting my tongue.
Yonggary, frothing in pain, gave a low chuckle.
【Ouch… ! Big, big. I’m not very good at doing things with sincerity.]
【It’s okay if you don’t fall behind.】
【Are you afraid? Do you think my soul will return to my mother’s arms and announce your existence?]
【Looks like her head is spinning for a pak-head.】
Istetil hit me. You can talk telepathically, bitch.
Again, you’ll need a kicker. But when I was about to open up Gura who possessed the puppet, Yonggary lying on the floor of the altar started talking.
【But it’s already too late. Unless you leave all of my men alive, I will pass through the scepter of our king before being embraced by my mother.]
【Wangshol?】
【It is a tool that a warrior’s soul goes through before entering her mother’s arms. It’s a memory from when I was alive, albeit briefly, and it gives me information. Your existence will be known to the home country.]
【… I’m fed up This is why middle management can’t be competent.]
I’m going crazy and jumping. I clicked my tongue and Istetil sent a telepathic message.
—The people I killed after leaving Scolaco didn’t matter. You’d be locked up in jail
──The problem is the first people we met.
The Jewel of the Shenryong is an artifact that grants a cozy extinction to those whose souls are captured.
So, there is no separate function to count the number of souls trapped here. There’s no way to know how many souls are trapped, so we can only guess.
‘When I entered Scolaco, I didn’t even know the gem’s function and didn’t activate it.’
The pups that died then would have gone back to Azteca.
You’d be right to assume that our existence would have been known. The idiots who stopped by the place called Wanghol for a short time must have been whimpering and telling them all about Mijual and Gojual.
Didn’t get anything from all this hard work? It’s a really upsetting ending.
【Under. Shit, yeah thanks for letting me know. You bastard.]
【Your words.】
A young Yonggary who won’t erase his smile no matter how confident he is.
Istetil kicked nervously, but the bastard giggled as he coughed up blood.
After all, crazy people are not a race to associate with. It’s a bit like swearing because of my wives that I like pain, but even in the situation of counting down to the end, I giggled and fell asleep.
Shall we reveal the function of the gem and feed this bastard some taffy?
Just knowing that you would be trapped in the Shinryong’s Jewel and perish would be quite mental.
I thought about such a trivial thing and said.
【… Mr. Istetil.]
【Know. I won’t ask you to stay.]
Even if she doesn’t say anything, she answers as if she understands.
Earlier, he complained that he had gained nothing, but in fact, he did not gain anything. It was fortunate for us that the threat from Azteca had become visible.
We, the Azteca Expedition, had no reason to fight fiercely against that cannibal empire.
Istetil smiled to hide the bitterness as much as possible.
【Join your wife and colleagues and leave without delay. The way back is the same, so I’d be more grateful if you escorted my younger siblings in the meantime.]
We had to retreat before the Aztecan soldiers could advance.
For Istetil and those burning with revenge.
Because that was the most rational choice.
【Escape? Where do you mean?]
After hearing our conversation, the yonggary pup put on a hoodie.
The complex bitter taste was pushed aside by the feeling of being fucked. Still, it would have been nice to have a conversation in voice, thinking that it was a little too much to say things like this telepathically.
Istetil, who was emotional like me, immediately widened her eyes.
【Is it time for you to consider our circumstances? I’ll torture you calmly until you die, but you’d better think about how you can beg to die sooner.]
【Then you are making a big mistake. There is nowhere in this world for you to escape. Our mother will be fully born soon.]
【What an idiot fanatic. I will suit you.]
Istetil checking the sharpness of the dagger as if she was not interested in anything other than screaming.
You bark, and I don’t tear. It was a reaction. However, I questioned Yonggary, who was difficult to interrogate anyway, feeling it would be a pity to lose sight of him talking about his great taste.
【What is Taedong? Please explain. Who isn’t it? We might be hooked on your conversational skills and want to go sucking on your dreams together.]
【… Hmmm.]
The young dragonfish rolled its eyes as if interpreting my question on its own.
Yes Roll that asshole and talk about anything. If you just spit out a sound like an idiot, just let me know the gem’s performance, so I can break your mental first and leave the world.
【Did you come to save the shrine maiden? Then she was lucky. She said the woman is still alive.]
【Ding. It’s a mistake.]
A sly answer came out of nowhere.
I don’t know what kind of shaman she was, but she was probably her victim, but the poor girl’s life was no more important than the safety of my wives.
‘If I were alone, anyway, all her wives followed.’
Even Istetil can’t help and leaves, but because of the shaman who doesn’t even know her face, isn’t it impossible to have a big fight with Azteka?
Then Yonggari raised his eyebrows as if it was a waste.
【Wasn’t it? I was mistaken because of the color of your skin.]
【I feel more embarrassed because I am pointed out by a scaly brown-skinned person because of my skin color. Anyway, if you and I take off our skin, there will be somewhere underneath—]
I was about to fire telepathy so that no deaths would come out of the battle under the fact that I was caught anyway.
Dude, what did you say now?
【… What does the shrine maiden have to do with my skin color?]
【This year, no. The woman chosen as the last shrine maiden is a half-dwarf from the outside world.]
I had to keep my mouth shut and try to ask as casually as possible.
[I risked the color of my skin and fell. Is that half-dwarf a Weiznian?]
【They say she’s a princess. Although it is my own opinion.]
【… After.】
Even if you suck at it, giving up is ahead of you.
‘Odin. Now I can fully understand your feelings.’
Fate is such a fucking thing.
I covered my eyes with my hands. I get a headache.
‘… Yui-ling’s older sister.’
Are you saying that she, who had been missing, is with this Aztecae?
Considering the time series, these pups couldn’t have been abducted as children. Couldn’t these cannibals have cherished a young lady who would have had no technical skills because she was a princess for decades?
‘… It might just be my misunderstanding.’
After a full rotation of the Elite Great Gallows, I spoke up.
【That priestess, she might be a girl I know.】
【Haha! There are all sorts of coincidences. I’m going to say goodbye, but?]
【Talk more. I’ll stay here, so your friends can avenge you.]
With an unorganized mind, I drove a spear in front of Yonggary’s face.
Have you ever rolled your head? Yonggary, who had a high position, began to tell me exactly what he knew, like a fisherman scattering rice.
【The best place for a mother’s veins to bloom is a dwarf.】
【I know that superstition. Next.】
【It is mother’s will to see a descendant as capable as our brother in mythology, the ‘best child’. We conducted several experiments to respect that meaning.]
【That’s why I came to believe that dwarves are the best, this isn’t it. Next.】
【The eldest child was not a half dwarf, but a woman who gave birth to siblings equal to that is a dwarf. But dwarves are hard to find on this continent.]
【Fuck you. Are you not interested in your way of thinking?]
-Kagak! The blade of the spear stuck in the altar moved a hand closer to Yonggary’s face.
【Don’t drag on the story. So did you kidnap him?]
【… This year’s shrine maiden is a half-dwarf brought in from outside. Byznia is the closest human country by half a lap across the sea. This is the girl I brought from there.]
Is it half a turn? It’s not the direction we came from, but it’s turning in the opposite direction.
It wouldn’t be strange if the other world was a round planet like Earth.
【Great. How many years ago was that?]
【Flaw. What a stupid question. Miko changes every year.]
Do you mean this year? I clicked my tongue.
How did he survive being kidnapped, and after growing up, live in hiding in Baiznia, get caught by cannibals, and bring him here?
‘There is a degree even in a difficult situation.’
Kiara did tell me. It is said that the Aztecs most prefer noble blood or dwarves as targets for kidnapping. But I never imagined that it would connect like this.
【… A priestess is an offering to Tonashillucatl.]
Istetil opened his mouth hesitantly and explained to me.
[They are selected at the beginning of the year and serve reverently as ‘the sun that covers the sky’ for several months. In the end, it is used as a sacrifice to communicate with the gods.]
【To make up for it a little bit, the skin is also removed when offering. My mother hates shells. Its shell is a divine object, used as a cloak for kings and nobles—— Gup!!]
-Hook!
Istetil’s dagger stuck in the middle of the back of the fluttering asshole.
She said, not caring about the blood spattering on her body.
【The shrine maiden this guy said. Are you acquainted?]
【… I hope not.]
If I hadn’t been caught by Azteca, I would have checked it with my clairvoyance from a few kilometers away. If you go as far as these eyes can see, you will not be able to avoid the army.
It was still difficult to see hundreds of kilometers away, like when lifting the curse of bicorns and unicorns.
【Ku, haha… I advise you not to run away. I mean this in good faith… 】
In a weakened state, Yonggary, who had a dagger for dismembering sacrifices stuck in his back, was helpless.
【Even if you run away to the end of the world, it’s useless. After this late spring, there will be nowhere her mother’s wings and legs cannot touch… 】
Murmured the soldier of Azteca, bleeding his blood, as if describing the sight only drawn to his own eyes. As much as the overflowing blood, it seems that the bastard’s thoughts are also flowing.
【The moon floating on the ground, Monsieur Hrellittle is dying… If Mother eats her bastard and usurps her authority, even the unbreakable dawn will soon die… Mother… A perfect being… 】
——No, is that scene really only visible to him?
‘… Shit?’
After the fight, I noticed that Odin’s eyes, which I had turned off, turned on by themselves.
A momentary sense of incongruity penetrated the brain as if an ice pick had been inserted into the back of the head.
Pooh… !
A hallucinatory awl pierced the cornea and protruded into the field of vision.
The scenery changes. The altar of the city-state conquered by the cannibals of human sacrifice for civilization and culture disappeared, and the crushed ruins were revealed.
It was a similar sensation to when I activated clairvoyance, but it was a much stronger and throbbing vision.
Was it the same daydream when he saw the strange sight in Shade’s dream?
But it was terrifying enough to be a daydream. I looked everywhere.
Britannia is in ruins.
Sargadis Street, Heathreut Street, the buildings that my wife and I knew well were in ruins, like our house had been extinguished after a fire.
People did not try to subdue the fire.
This was the scene after the destruction.
A city that has ceased to be a human living space, a space where its ruins are neglected like a historic site! It was a ruined city that had been removed from the ghost town of Germania that he had once visited.
——And a huge shadow was walking across the western horizon.
It was a snake that walked on two legs and was bigger than a mountain range.
It is several times bigger than the Sleipnir I saw in my dream before.
Arms developed from short jaws and wings like carnivorous dinosaurs. Silver scales and a slender tail like a sea snake. If you think wrongly, it was a monster that was even beautiful.
Wooshin (愚神).
However, it was different from any of the three gods I had heard and imagined.
The sun covering the sky, Tonashilucutl.
The moon that floats on the ground, Monsieur Hrellittle.
Dawn that does not clear, Ortlaweeper.
The three evil gods, so called by the humans of this continent.
But her wings were like the sun flying in the sky, and her neck and legs were like the moon walking on the ground. Its long tail was glistening like a sea snake.
A figure that can only be seen as three gods becoming one!
What kind of human would consider that a monster?
It didn’t even have a human form, and it was completely different from the gods we worship and are familiar with——but that was definitely enough to be worshiped as a god.
【Wolf Hedin? Why is that?】
【… …】
The sudden foreknowledge ended as suddenly as it began.
Returning to the scenery of the altar, I was sitting down and fiddling with my eyes.
‘Tsubeol, what the hell is it?’
The scenery is so clear that it cannot be dismissed as an illusion.
Could it be that it became a precognitive dream? Aren’t you sleeping?
“… I did have strange dreams on the way to Azteca.”
I rubbed my eyes and muttered involuntarily.
What could be the cause? A clairvoyant awakened?
Have you tried activating the divine dragon jewel, which is also closely related to spiritual power?
By stepping into a continent where a being worthy of a god openly remains?
I don’t know. There were many occasions and even precedents, and the suddenly revealed intelligence was so unpleasantly clear that it seemed like it would never get out of my brain.
I sincerely understood why Odin had left all sorts of arrangements in preparation for the future, even though he knew he couldn’t stop Ragnarok.
‘… That’s right, I couldn’t stay still when I saw something like this.’
But at this time, like Yui-Ling’s older sister or Ye-Ji, my brain was churned by too much information, the most rooted thought in my head was something completely different.
Wooshin, who tried to destroy Britannia and annihilate all Western countries.
It doesn’t matter if the daydream was a premonition, or if a premonition is true.
There were things that bothered me more than that.
Because the presence I felt from Wooshin in that wisdom was somehow familiar to me.
【Hey. Yonggary.]
I asked the question with an unpleasant feeling of foreboding.
【When did Monsieur Hrellittle, that moon that floats on the ground, become a half asshole?】
【… You’re asking something strange.]
Even though the dagger was stuck in the back, the still alive young dragongary pulled its mouth shut.
【As far as I know, about a month ago.】
… Fuck Amy. I muttered only in my mouth.
About 1 month ago from now. Atlantis talks.
Chungwangdaegun and the Azteca parasite he used.
Gullanarouk seeking the body of a god.
The appearance of God in the foreknowledge that was far behind.
Fragmentary puzzles came together to reach an uncomfortable conclusion.
There’s no clear evidence at all, but I’m very familiar with this shitty hunch that’s hard to put into words. It was the kind of intuition that never went wrong.
‘The monster that Prince Chungwang summoned as a sacrifice.’
A huge monster that disappeared after a fierce fight with me.
A mighty summoned beast that almost lost its power and authority, descended reluctantly with only the body that was inevitably given to it because it was sacrificed, and eventually lost and lost part of its existence in defeat.
That bastard was the demigod of the ‘moon that floats on the ground’.
