Chapter 812 – Day 93 – The Princess Finds the Remains.
“Can’t even Friday be all-powerful?”
“It seems that the terrain here has changed quite a bit for a very long time and for various reasons. It will be difficult to get Friday’s help since the ancient demons’ facilities have been significantly damaged.”
The princess, who had expected that she would be able to live a slightly more comfortable life by taking the stairs down to the basement, looked sad and clicked her tongue.
The condition of the facilities of the ancient demons was truly so terrible that Hedone, who followed silently behind them, continued to drink water from Ceres.
‘The place called a dungeon is always a bad place for people to explore…’
The princess, who knew full well that the dungeon was a facility for ancient demons, sighed deeply.
She called Friday again just in case, but got a disappointing reply that she couldn’t help in any way because she didn’t have any power.
“Heh… Heh… Anyway.”
The princess wiped the sweat from her forehead and spoke as she looked through Friday to check the condition of the elevator she had finally found.
“You don’t know who the old god was who was imprisoned in this ancient demon facility?”
“I’m sorry. Even if it’s not Asmo and the kids or even me, it’s virtually impossible to guess what kind of old god it is based on the remaining bones and remains.”
“Well, now that I think about it, it’s like pointing to a piece of wreckage that doesn’t even have a sword hilt left and asking you to guess what kind of weapon it is.”
The princess clicked her tongue and turned her body to the side with a sigh as she realized that her elevator wouldn’t work after all.
“I think I can just take these stairs and go down to the bottom floor…”
When she opened the only stairs that the princess could go down, she saw vines and other plants growing thickly.
It was a situation that made her sigh, but there was no way.
“Anyway. Wouldn’t it be better to think about what the power of the old gods is?”
“Why?”
“When Arisa created the Arcana, couldn’t we just call it Magic Tool 1 and Magic Tool 2? Just as it would be convenient to memorize that Udr’s power is to control liquid.”
When she thought about it, the princess planned to spread the magic tool created by Arisa that could withstand the power of a god to all those she could trust.
“That is certainly true, but…”
Ceres wanted to help, but Friday had no information left in the facility, which was not even operational.
“I think Udr’s case can be applied this time as well.”
These were the words of the princess who carefully went down the stairs first.
“Are you talking about a case where the moment the princess opened the door, water of unknown origin poured out?”
“I cannot assume that Udr’s case applies to all old gods…”
Ceres was cautious, but applying Udr’s case was not a bad move.
“Isn’t it just a matter of thinking about it? Anyway, since that was the case with Udr, let’s see where the old god is this time.”
The princess smiled as she felt the growing heat and the plants growing everywhere she looked.
“Isn’t he a god who deals with plants and heat?”
“Ah, there is definitely a possibility.”
Unlike the two nodding their heads, Ceres did not nod.
“What else is Ceres thinking?”
“Ah, I’m sorry, princess. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think he’s just a god who deals with plants.”
“Huh? Why do you think that? Look, there are weeds and vines! If only the height had been allowed, trees would have grown.”
The princess did not criticize Ceres.
“But there are no other plants. If you were a being with the power to grow plants at will, wouldn’t there be more and more diverse plants than these?”
“However, even though Udr can handle various liquids… Um.”
The princess hesitated for a moment as she spoke.
“… Is it possible that we are just using Udr’s abilities that way, and that they are actually called differently in the pantheon?”
“Yes, maybe because he was called the god of the sea, the room where Udr died was full of seawater.”
Since it made sense, the princess thought about it and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
“Then what on earth is this god? Is he the god of the jungle and heat?”
Hedone sighed at this incomprehensible situation.
“I thought it was a place where people could live because it was said to be a land where Pantheists live, but it is such a miserable place.”
Haha. If it weren’t for the mountain of magic tools that can control air conditioning, it would be very difficult to live peacefully here.”
“Are people here even getting used to the heat?”
“Even if people can get used to it, wouldn’t food go bad quickly in this hot weather? Just thinking about it, it’s a terrible living environment…”
The princess went down the stairs for a long time, fanning her hands, and was finally able to reach her lowest floor.
‘I can’t imagine what the god was doing when he was enshrined in the pantheon…’
The princess muttered, and the moment she opened her thick steel door and went out, her thoughts stopped for a moment.
“Isn’t this a pantheon?”
As the huge space she saw in Colonia’s basement unfolded before her eyes, the princess looked to her left and right in genuine surprise.
“No matter where you look…”
“The pantheon is coming exactly as the princess said…”
Ceres, with startled eyes, looked at the statues depicting the images of old gods placed one by one in 360-degree directions.
“Was the pantheon ultimately just one of the countless traces left behind by ancient demons? But…”
Why was it necessary to create something like this?
The princess felt strange and strange, but she looked at the giant statues with strange eyes.
“I guess this place is…”
The princess broke into a cold sweat when she realized that there were more ways to come down to the Pantheon than the stairs they came down.
‘If we consider that there is no possibility that the Pantheists created this place…’
When the princess saw various offerings placed under the huge stone statues, she hurriedly ran.
“Didn’t the princess say that food spoils quickly when the weather is hot…?”
The princess swallowed her saliva at Hedone’s words and quickly moved her body toward the huge passage that was the only one open before her eyes.
“Bloody hell…!”
“Lord Hedone! I have no choice. Please hold my hand!”
The princess’s judgment was accurate.
The worst case scenario is that there is someone here right now. The best stories may be the ones that have just left, but either way, there is no time.
The princess ran aimlessly through her hallway at an incredible speed and, realizing that there were no rooms to her left or right, she finally rushed into another huge space in front of her.
“Ugh…!”
“What is this guy doing?”
A being wearing a pitch black robe looked behind her and shouted. To her left and right were shabbily dressed people.
And in front of them was something huge, ‘hidden’ by a beautiful cloth made of gold.
‘It must be the remains of an old god!’
The princess swallowed her saliva and took a step forward.
“What a rude guy…! How dare you tell me where this is!”
The robed being showed her face and pointed a finger at the princess.
“Catch it! Catch it! Catch it right now!”
The moment he shouted, beings wearing shabby clothes walked forward.
“I don’t think you guys know much, so I’ll tell you in advance. I am the Venus Hall of the Empire where the sun never sets…”
─Blah blah blah!
The princess had no choice but to stop what she was saying as her shabby clothes were torn and the beings that suddenly took the form of furry werewolves filled her eyes.
“… What a mess…”
─Quaak!!
With incredible speed, the werewolf, who was a pantheon, swung her front paw towards the princess’s body.
‘Isn’t it incomparable to the power that humans naturally possess?!’
The princess stepped back, clenching her molars as the enemy attacked her so dangerously that her hair shook violently.
“Kung, roar! Kung! Crumble…!”
Not one or two, but at most six werewolves attacked the princess very systematically.
Thanks to this, even the princess, who was confident in her strength and agility, was able to stumble for a moment.
“Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!”
Seeing the robed being howling loudly, the princess made her decision.
“Don’t blame me even if you break at least one arm!”
“Crrrrn condition?”
The princess caught the werewolf’s strongly swung arm and immediately grabbed the werewolf and threw it towards the robed guy.
─Cudangtangtangtang!!!
“Queuuuuu!! What a rude and irreligious bastard!!”
The being that was half crushed by the werewolf’s huge body screamed.
The guy’s robe came off naturally, and at that moment, the princess stopped her hand in surprise at the fact that the guy’s skin was made of ‘scales’.
“What on earth is this…!”
The princess was so shocked that she couldn’t continue to be surprised.
She had to make a decision.
As long as the remains of the old god are sent to Arisa, she has no reason to fight here. With that in mind, the princess quickly reached into her pocket, took out her bead, and tried to throw it away.
“Please stop.”
At the sound of a woman’s voice coming from behind her for the first time, the princess instinctively stopped her arms.
She wasn’t the type of princess to be obsessed with women, but that wasn’t her problem. Behind her were Hedone and Ceres. But is it the first time you hear a woman’s voice?
“If these people’s lives are not a waste, it is okay to touch the great god’s legacy…”
The cheeks and skin of the woman who slowly walked out of the hallway had turned so white that it was appropriate to call her a ‘living corpse.’ To her left and right were the werewolves she had thrown down earlier.
In addition, there were beings with white skin just like a woman, beings whose upper bodies were human but whose lower bodies were like ‘bugs’ with multiple legs, and beings with skin made of scales.
“I’m sorry, Princess. There are too many of them…”
Ceres would have fought as hard as he could, but it would have been impossible to completely protect Hedone from enemies coming from all directions.
The princess, noticing her situation, swallowed her saliva and smiled.
“So you’re interested in at least talking?”
The princess saw her hope when she did not immediately kill Hedone and Ceres.
