Chapter 986 – Fist Through the Sky (4)
***
“… I wanted to be able to take a leisurely rest in a state of spirit for about 10 years, but somehow I thought I was impatiently trying to revive it.”
When I told him about the future, Loki sighed and sighed.
“I feel sorry for Ralilura.”
“Sorry? What?”
“David—I mean, one of the offspring of the stars told him. My throne is like a curse, so don’t think about accepting it. He was a high-ranking service race, and he was a smart guy.”
“What are you doing useless self-help?”
─Exactly! Loki screamed as I placed a beetroot on her self-harming forehead.
“Ouch! What are you doing?!”
“As the body got smaller, the cost performance did not improve, but the child has changed emotionally. Why did you sit down conscious of the absurd remarks of a live octopus that died while playing catch-up?”
He tugged at Loki’s cheek. Is it because I’m young? She ends up doing something like an uncle who bullies her nephew for no reason.
Even if I don’t take into account the age difference, I’m more like a nephew in a relationship.
“You can do it after you stop worrying about that. Worried about the future that hasn’t come? Are you a prophet?”
“Ah, the prophet told me a future that almost happened, but what to do with me! In the future, I’d be lying here and getting chewed up by the ‘Yellow King’!”
“It’s a more pointless worry. The ‘Yellow King’ is also dead.”
“What?”
I put a little more sajog-eul on the general explanation. Loki’s face was complicated, but at the same time there was a certain excitement and joy that could not be mistaken for seeing.
“You said you got your sister’s throne back? Sigurd died, did the ‘yellow king’ die in a dream too? Is it really?”
“If you are curious, go down to the world and listen to it yourself.”
I said, shaking my hands.
“Now your wounds are almost healed. Since the faith of the earth is flowing into the new body, the authority of the god of all things must be strengthened. There will be another throne in heaven.”
“… It is the power of Rodur. I’ll have to think about that a bit more. Anyway, unexpected good news in my depression!”
Being motivated is a good thing. Loki picked up a few things with his hand and asked me questions about some of them.
“But why did you bring me back to life? If the idea was to increase power, honestly, it’s not a very effective strategy? I’m not as good as that idiot quack, but I’m bad at fighting.”
“It’s true that I wanted it to be helpful in battle, but that’s a problem before that. If you want to go to the palace of the ‘lord of the deep sea’, it is difficult for Lalilura alone, and other gods consume stamina because it is a handshake.”
The levels and ranks are different, but this is also a type of siege warfare.
‘And when fighting over castles, usually the attacking side is at a disadvantage.’
To the extent that even the old rulers who returned from the future to the 【middle branch】 had their earthenware pots bursting.
The dimensional rift, the way to attack the castle at the back of the space, no matter how smooth it was, was not enough. Even if he wasn’t active during the war, Loki’s experience and power were worth it.
It’s just a copy and paste of the words Veronica of the future left, but anyway.
“Okay. You mean to be a pack horse for the warp? Great.”
“Cool. That’s the Loki I know.”
“I’m naturally cool! Making stupid excuses and talking nonsense is when you lose a match, when you’re at a disadvantage, and when nasty people brag about you, and, and… Anyway, that’s all!”
“You’re fucking cool. Indeed, he is the officer in charge of Niflheim.”
“… I fixed the dimensional curtain, so I don’t have to go down… Oh damn. There is no god to take care of the children who have fallen into Niflheim. I will be busy even after winning.”
Loki shook his head on his own after answering the question.
Although she was already thinking about her post-victory, it looked much better than being buried in her past work.
“I guess I’m done talking to you.”
Dian gestured, grumbling as if he was displeased with his appearance.
“Now you should go back to the ground and prepare. A week according to secular standards. After that, it will open up. If you’re running out of time, talk to Loki or Satis the same way you talked to Sobek.”
“What do you do?”
It’s a week It’s a time that can never be long.
However, I and my wives, who have gained new strength, are also working hard to get used to it. I wasn’t good enough, but I didn’t think I was lacking either.
‘Actually, there can be no perfect preparation.’
The value of time and the thoroughness of preparation are inversely proportional.
This was especially true when it came to arguing with one another. What matters is balance.
It is patience to measure the timing, but as the stock industry says, if you are not in a position to look forward to 10 years and survive, it is better to hurry.
In the event of failure in the pursuit of perfection, it would be right to use the most appropriate and swift maneuverability.
As a master and prophet, my intuition and experience told me so.
I clenched my fists and said.
“Loki. Help me get down to the ground.”
“Didn’t he say he tore the repaired dimension membrane while bragging about his strength? I’ll tell you how to get out of here with a knack. Let’s go.”
Loki busily teased his short legs and came out.
Then, putting his hands together, he floated a small rune mandala.
“Keep your eyes open. The runes for ᚱ (Raidō) are written like this.”
Kirik, Kirik… !
The space creaked like the hands of a clock turning backwards. The power of rune magic saw through the cracks in space and made the body of the user move like slime.
“The flow of time and space does not pass through. You are a bit ignorant of ideas. You can ride the flow while minimizing damage to the dimension membrane.”
Even if the space was distorted as if it were photoshopped, the body inside it was not crushed. It feels like water rushing through a pipe.
I also spread the runes and chased after Loki who preceded him.
“100 million?! Loki!! What are you going to do if it goes down to you!!”
Only then did Dian, who hurriedly realize the situation, shouted.
I blinked as I was concentrating, but Loki looked back and grinned with a confused face.
“Up in the sky is boring. I can’t stand being boring.”
─Break!!
We set foot on the ground, consuming almost no energy from the dimensional restoration magic engraved by Veronica.
There was no way that the former game god would have misplaced the coordinates, and my mansion in Hughes Roit and the bicorns with their mouths wide open appeared in front of me.
“I know best how to handle Odin’s throne, my throne, and that muscular idiot’s hammer. If you are a teacher, of course you should teach at the same eye level!”
Loki smirked at me and put his hand to his ear as if to sharpen his hearing.
“Ah, I hear it, I hear it… ! Sounds of praise to me! I’m more pious than when I was active duty! Yes, parents have the right to be loved by their children!”
Did the faith in Loki we spread have a significant effect? Loki, who was noticeably in better shape than he had been in Magmel, punched the sky.
“Children of mankind! I’m back!”
“Lo, Loki-sama?! Are your wounds all healed?!”
“What? You know right away? Hee hee My uncontrollable beauty doesn’t change even if I become like this? Hey~ I should forgive the believers who adored me after seeing the statue of the Goddess during my active duty days even if they commit a little disrespect!”
“Everybody, gather up! Loki is back!”
“Ugh, Reitling, Adelaide, hello! It’s only 1 month! Was I too fast?”
Loki hops and jumps and greets the bicorns.
It felt like there was one more goddamn lari lura, but she wasn’t too bad.
Vitality is something that spreads, so the difference between having someone who led the atmosphere of joy and pleasure and not having one was such a stark difference.
Loki shouted as he punched the dimensional membrane of the sky we had punctured.
“Let’s go, Wolfheddin! Miracles and luck only come to those who do their duty!”
One week until the finals.
In the gap of the slowly recovering dimension, I somehow smelled a little nostalgic hometown.
Is this some kind of homesickness? It’s a day when I crave poisonous soybean paste stew.

He knew the strategy of the old rulers.
‘Now, training is the only answer.’
Even if you know the strategy, you won’t be able to break it if your specs are lagging behind. My family entered the final intensive training period to finish the month-long training.
Nefertiti’s power was completed on the third day.
It was completed faster and perfectly than expected.
The MVP of that achievement was, again, thanks to our filial daughter Brunak.
“… Brunak, the power of Gungnir is too foul.”
“It’s bad.”
“She says what she says.”
“… Bryenak, you look just like her dad.”
“Look what you say. Now she is a real mother.”
The spear that fixes fate and the authority to smash and break destiny!
The compatibility between each other is both advantageous and disadvantageous. A fight in which the one who shoots the bamboo spear first and stabs it well wins! Training in such a combination was a very optimal environment for Nefertiti to catch up.
Because fate is fixed, it means that it is easy to break.
I whispered inaudibly to Brunak.
“For warriors, the first is stamina, and the second is stamina. Nefertiti, not only at night, but also during the day, you mustn’t be short of 3 minutes. No matter how consuming power it is.”
“Yes. Physical fitness is the answer.”
“The problem is not having time. The elixir won’t be enough to give a tangible effect to the master class… I’m going to empty the pockets of the Popes for a moment.”
Warp with the spare bicorn.
Thor’s powers could be applied and trained during the day, so it wasn’t a waste of time. I had to avoid paying attention because the rune belt was shining.
“… It’s a holy relic that reduces power consumption. I don’t know of such a convenient thing. In the first place, how many master classes were there in human history?”
“Did the Church of Romulus say that? It may be difficult for us to provide the right items, but… How about going to the Church of the Rich God?”
“Loki is back?! This is a portrait of Loki’s new body?! Alas, how can you be so pious! A relic? Please wait a moment.”
Fortunately, there was a meaning to jump up. I came back from the Church of the Rich God and found Loki in the mansion’s training ground.
She was guiding Fran wielding Mjolnir on Lalilura’s dimensional wall.
Is it extreme training? It was a little funny how Lalilura would grow pale each time the golem arm sliced through a wall with Mjolnir.
However, Loki kept shouting from the side as if he was very dissatisfied.
“That’s not it, Fran! A little more ignorant! The hammer gets faster the more you empty your brain! Come on, let’s sing! 【Lightning is the lightest of all, so is Thor’s head】!”
“【Burr, lightning is the lightest of all, Thor… So does your hair]!”
“Omit the honorifics! As long as that idiot drank well, he didn’t care even if I talked to him!”
“Aha♡! Then, should you use respectful words for your sister?”
It’s normal for a big fight ahead. Good thing.
I called out Loki, who fluttered like a sports cartoon director.
“I’m busy, sorry. Loki, give me a minute.”
“Eh? Even if you join here and train, it won’t be enough?”
“Because it only takes an hour or two.”
After dragging Loki to the Church of the Rich God, I watched with cold eyes how the pope of a country cried out and kowtowed at the feet of the little goddess, and then demanded a custom-made holy object.
“Sniff… Authority is the power to twist the laws of this world with mental strength and physical strength. Improving the efficiency is impossible in my opinion, but there are many ways to soothe the tired mind and body.”
“Then, please give me the most efficient skill among the mind and body recovery divine magic. Please charge the fee to the Royal Palace of Britannia.”
Elisabeth may be frightened, but isn’t it too sad to pay for the defense of the future out of my own pocket? Isn’t this all an effective use of taxes?
“… Did I call you to the divine power shuttle?”
“Think of the investment you received. I am very happy because it is easy to temper.”
Is this what money makes money? After mobilizing personal connections and money, Nefertiti’s exclusive item was completed in one day.
However, Nefertiti’s reaction was a little bland.
“… Thanks. I will use it carefully.”
“Don’t you like it?”
“… The ring was better.”
Fuck, I’m going crazy. Look at you rolling your eyes It’s so damn cute.
I couldn’t stand it and laughed for a while before answering.
“Let’s postpone the proposal. If you make a marriage promise before the war, you can’t go to a hundred marriages and go to the goal.”
“Suddenly, I hate getting a ring.”
With a more expressionless expression than usual, the bittersweet Nefertiti grabbed my hand and collapsed.
“… Nord, you must never die. It’s a promise.”
“I have no intention of physically burying my bones in my homeland yet. I have to give my parents some grandchildren.”
“Nordes hometown, do you have polygamy?”
“… I’m more worried about after winning, Sbel.”
Upon receiving her bracelet, Nefertiti giggled.
“Beep~ Ppa~♬”
Brunak was also happy to see if he liked the holy relic he made with his own bracelet mode as a motif.
‘Now that I see it, this is a coupling.’
Although it is a ring worn on the arm.
