Chapter 301 – Ep.300 Goldias Kingdom
Smith took one look at the long robe that hung like a skirt, then nodded his head in satisfaction.
“Bex.”
“Yes, old.”
Vex responded by lowering his head further.
Smith turned around and continued.
“Follow me.”
“Oh, yeah…”
She forced her shaking legs to stand up with difficulty. Then she carefully raised her head.
A huge body that makes it difficult to believe that it is a man.
Well-cleaved back muscles.
Skin full of health.
Black hair that seems to fall out.
A being that fascinates women just by standing there.
“You.”
“… !!”
Bex was startled by the deep voice echoing through the hallway.
“You. And you. “That one too.”
“… ?”
However, she soon realized that she was not the target of the noble man’s remarks and quickly calmed her startled mind.
Bex looked at each of the targets Smith had pointed out to her.
‘Battle believers?’
Smith singled out only those who had no trouble moving immediately. However, because those who were singled out had their heads down, she did not notice that she had been singled out.
“Bring me up.”
“Yes? Ah, yes.”
Smith didn’t wait for Bex and walked towards her stairs.
Bex stared blankly at Smith’s back as he slowly walked away.
“Vex. “Don’t sit still and get moving quickly.”
“Ah… Sorry.”
She wiped the area around her mouth with the back of her hand.
The wet saliva on the back of her hand. She truly felt fortunate that everyone was keeping her head down and began to raise up those whom Smith had singled out.
**
In front of the stone wall leading to the basement where brainwashed believers and adventurers were imprisoned.
A woman standing with a sword on both sides of her waist.
Veldrin, the branch leader of the Adventurer’s Guild that cooperates with the Nuit Church.
Adventurers lined up on either side of her. Among them, a short-haired woman holding a huge hammer in her hand asked Vel Drin with a worried look.
“Shouldn’t we go down too?”
“No.”
Vel Dryn shook her head resolutely.
“You can see it when moving, but it is very narrow down there. Even if we go down, there are at most three people who can actually step up and move. Even so, if there’s a knife-wielding bitch like me involved, it’s better to think that you’ll actually have to fight alone.”
“That’s true, but…”
“And.”
Veldrin said as she looked around at the adventurers around her.
“In the first place, he is not a human being at a level we should worry about. “It’s ridiculous for us to worry about someone so strong that we can’t do anything even if everyone here, including me, attacks him, so stop.”
“Okay… All right.”
The adventurers no longer asked Veldrin to go down.
She sighed softly and turned her eyes to the closed stone wall.
‘I’ve been playing in the same class for years because I don’t have the ability to see things like this.’
The other guys did not properly realize that the real fear of the giant was not his psychic power, but his freely moving body itself.
A body stronger than steel. In order to injure that body that has surpassed human limitations, you must pour in a battle magic with high lethality or surround the blade or the weapon you are using with an aura to inflict an effective hit.
And there is no one with that level of skill down there.
‘I guess the reason they brought us here was so that they could take care of the cleanup.’
They actually joined the cult, but they never properly wielded a sword. They simply tied up mentally broken believers and adventurers who had rebelled and were suppressed and moved them.
Veldrin thought that they would not have to swing their swords again this time, and waited for the giant to return.
Well-
I don’t know how much time has passed. However, in less than an hour, the closed stone wall began to move.
“Go away.”
No matter what was done to the stone wall, from the moment the door was closed, the presence of the giant could no longer be felt. The stone wall blocked out all other noises, so from the outside, it was impossible to make any sense of what was going on inside.
The reason Veldrin held his men back was to secure space in advance because the giant was so large, and it was an order given without even considering the situation.
Grrrr!!
The stone wall was pushed forward. And moves sideways.
The hidden passageway was revealed again. There stood a tall man with strong muscles.
‘… ?’
Veldrin felt something strange as he looked at the solid muscles tightly packed in his abdomen.
The muscles on the giant’s body are very large and contain a ferocious energy. It is the kind of thing that causes feelings of disgust and fear in those who see it, and that they never want to see again.
But the muscles that appeared before my eyes felt different from those disgusting ones.
‘Beautiful.’
Elegant curves that are clearly visible.
Healthy skin that glows softly under the light of a magic lamp.
Above all, Veldrin’s gaze was firmly captured by the well-cleaved abs that aroused the desire to touch them at least once.
At the same time, she realized that the person who appeared before her was not the giant who had gone down.
“Hi…”
Veldrin came to her senses when someone’s small scream reached her ears.
She raised her head, placing her hand on her sword at her waist.
Hua Aak!
“Ah…”
Veldrin’s legs, which had been standing firmly on her feet, faltered and she soon collapsed to the floor.
A blue glow blooms within black eyes that look like an abyss that threatens to be swallowed.
The moment he encountered that eye light, Veldrin instinctively felt it. Don’t go against the being in front of her.
Just by meeting her, her body trembles and her head naturally bows… Awe took over her body and mind.
“Bex.”
A low yet profound voice reached Veldrin’s ears as she lowered her head.
Soon, the sound of someone running urgently was heard from down the open passage.
“Yes. “Noble one.”
“Tie up the interest… There you are.”
A deep voice echoes through the hallway.
Vel Dryn, who did not have the courage to raise her head to check, was forced to tilt her head back.
“Tsk… !!”
Someone had grabbed her by the hair and forced her to raise her head.
Vel Dryn raised her head and saw the face of a fierce-looking woman. The woman opened her mouth as if she would sink her teeth into it at any moment at the command of her master.
“Answer the noble person’s questions with sincerity and without lies.”
“Ugh!!”
Vex grabbed hold of her Vel Drin’s hair and held it in place.
Smith, who had been watching this with her indifferent eyes, opened her mouth again.
“Your bodies smell strongly of food. “Is there any food left that I can eat right now?”
“… “There is plenty of alcohol and smoked meat.”
“That is enough. And I wish I had a tool to tell the time.”
“Clock… “There is a clock in the space where we stay.”
“Bex.”
“Yes.”
Vex responded to Smith’s call by slamming Veldrin’s head, which he was holding, on the floor.
“Tie them up and take them down. Then, have Naiel and the believers gather all the edible items from the space they were staying in and bring them to the place you call the altar. “About an hour would be a good time.”
“I will.”
As Vex lowered her head even further, Smith nodded her head once and walked towards somewhere, passing the squatting adventurers.
**
Giant. After Rune-Videl leaves, Naberius remains at the altar with Kalm.
He is now in serious trouble with the flickering candlelight in front of him.
‘It is clear that brainwashing has taken place… It’s clear…’
Naberius asked Kalm, who was staring blankly at the floor with unfocused eyes, following his command.
“For what purpose did you approach us?”
“It has no purpose.”
“… “Look at the ground again.”
“Yes.”
Kalm lowered his head and looked at the ground.
‘What on earth…? … ?’
You approached without any purpose? Why? For what reason?
A series of unresolved questions.
I asked him several times to insult Petrmira to see if he was acting, but the other person insulted Petrmira without the slightest hesitation, proving that he had been brainwashed.
“You… Are you really an apostle of Petrumira?”
“That’s right.”
“… “What is the grace you received?”
“It is possible to change into anything you want.”
“Even the opponent’s abilities are perfect?”
Kalm shook his head.
“All we can do is resemble what we look like.”
“What a trash ability.”
Naberius truly thought that the grace given to Kalm was trash.
At best, it only resembles its appearance.
If it was used against the general public, it would be possible to deceive people, but if it were to turn into just one of the adventurers collaborating with them, people around them would quickly become suspicious and be exposed.
Anyone would find it strange if someone who made a living by cutting a knife forgot how to hold a knife overnight.
‘He maintains his position as an apostle just because he has received so much grace?’
Just because someone receives strength from God doesn’t mean everyone will rise to the top. Then there is one thing I can think of.
‘Does this mean that his original ability was outstanding?’
Naberius naturally thought that the apostle Kalm had taken the position of apostle not by grace, but by his own strength.
‘Tsk. There is no way to check how far the brainwashing has taken effect, so asking questions is a waste of time.’
He concluded that an apostle named Kalm had been caught in the brainwashing process, but that the church had placed a ban on him from disclosing important information.
Grrrr!!
“… ?”
Naberius turned his head when he heard a sound from behind him.
The stone gate that had been closed was moving.
I could not feel the energy of the giant, Rune-Videl.
“…”
Naberius immediately increased his strength and stood behind Kalm. So that he can use Kalm as a shield at any time.
The heavy stone door scratches the floor and is slowly pushed back. Accordingly, the soft light of the magic lamp seeps into the dark altar and gradually brightens the surroundings.
As light emerges, the shadow behind Naberius becomes clearer.
A black energy that is ready to be fired at any moment when the owner orders it.
Finally, the stone gate was fully opened.
A huge human figure appeared with the light of a magic lamp at its back.
I, Berius, narrowed my eyes and scanned the appearing opponent from below.
‘She’s smaller than that damn bitch, but she’s got a physique that can’t be ignored.’
Thighs that were several times his size and a thick, solid abdomen. Broad shoulders. And his face –
“… ?!”
Upon seeing his opponent’s face, I, Berius, widened my eyes and hastily took a few steps back.
A flickering blue eye light.
A memory that still makes me break out in a cold sweat when I think about it.
‘Why did the author… No way?!’
Naberius glared at the back of Kalm’s head, who was standing there stupidly.
‘Shit… !! Is that what it was!! ‘That’s what it was?!’
The reason why the apostle in front of them was captured by them without any preparation. It was clear that it was all because he believed in that existence.
The fact that she was captured may not have been her will, but something that fearful being ordered her to do. No, it must have been ordered by that being.
Naberius’ head spins violently.
‘The flame I saw then… Did it swallow me and that damn bitch’s grace? Damn…’
He did nothing but stood still and looked at the fearful being who was just looking at him. Then, measure the distance to the escape exit behind you.
‘It would be right to say that that crazy bitch suffered. If so, he will get out of here with all his might.’
Naberius looked at Kalm.
‘It might have been impossible if I was alone, but if I had that bitch, I could try.’
He collapses his entrance as soon as he escapes.
That fearsome being would have escaped in no time, but Naberius was just grateful that there was still some means of holding him back.
Naberius shouted at Kalm, summoning all his available power.
“Kalm-bloom!! “Use the best attack method available to you against the being standing in front of you with all your might!!”
The moment that Apostle Fetmira exerts his power against a fearful being, he runs toward the exit without even looking back.
Thinking only about that, Naberius contracted every muscle in his body and waited for Kalm to move. And.
“Used as electricity…”
Kalm muttered softly and spread his hands to the sides.
Paaaaa!!
“Aaaaa!!”
A light stronger than the sun struck Naberius.
