Chapter 884 – 884. Hero Academy (6)
Here, the sphinx with a body so gigantic that it could easily collapse…
Pass Sussut!
Seongsuho turned into a huge pile of sand at once.
Looking at the sphinx that had collapsed due to my dismantling technique, Yeriel looked at me with wary eyes and asked,
“… How did you do it?”
“I told you. It must have looked like that because it was made of sand.”
“You want me to believe that now?”
Yeriel seemed unwilling to stop her questioning.
I could roughly guess why she asked with such a wary expression on her face.
‘I saw right away the danger of dismemberment.’
As for Yeriel, she only pays attention to the abilities I’ve shown so far, but she doesn’t overdo it.
However, when she saw the dismemberment technique, Yeriel, she was wary enough to ignore all the abilities I’ve shown so far.
Magic is an existence that is output to the outside by using the mana absorbed from nature by the caster or medium.
And until that mana enters the body once and is released to the outside again, it is no different from the possession of the caster or medium.
In other words, in terms of reliability, mana is more reliable than parents and children.
An entity no different from itself.
I am someone else’s mana…
“How did you do it?”
It was controlled as if it were mine.
From Yeriel’s point of view, she must have judged that I was more dangerous than the Sphinx that had fallen before her eyes.
I answered with a single word to Yeriel, who kept glaring at me and asking me questions.
“I’ll tell you when I tell you.”
“…”
Fortunately, Yariel seemed to believe me.
It could be that he has decided that it is meaningless to argue and fight in the current situation…
Just as she finished the battle of nerves with Yeriel, just in time, the pharaoh’s face emerged from her pile of sand.
“Puhaaaaagh! Coke! Coke! Coke!”
He began spitting out the sand that somehow got into his mouth and nostrils to breathe.
Unlike the arrogant and grandiose appearances he had shown so far, he looked very shabby.
I didn’t give the Pharaoh time to calm down, so I jumped up and landed in front of his face.
“Coke! Hee!”
Eyes filled with rebelliousness and fear at the same time.
I said as I gently stepped on the face of Pharaoh, who was only sticking out his face under my feet.
“Can I make a toy out of sand? That’s why it’s going to look like this.”
“This… This guy… !”
The rebelliousness hidden within the thinly spread fear began to swell again.
But I didn’t give him time to rekindle his rebelliousness.
I grabbed his hair with my right hand and pulled it up from the sand pile.
“Quaaaaa!!”
The pharaoh was pulled out of the sand, feeling the pain as if his entire hair were being pulled out.
I grabbed him by the hair and ran again, flying in front of Yeriel and knocking him to the ground.
Smack!
“Kkeuhii profit!”
The sight of the Pharaoh who fell in front of me and Yeriel was absolutely pitiful.
The charisma he had shown while sitting on a huge throne had already disappeared.
The pharaoh now was just an ancient Egyptian tramp dragged into the future.
I looked down at the pharaoh who was thrown to the floor and said in a low voice.
“It is over now. Should I be punished for all the hard work I’ve done?”
“Hey! Now, hold on!”
At Pharaoh’s desperate voice, I lowered my raised arm and watched.
It was obvious that he would do something strange again, but now he wouldn’t be able to escape so easily.
Not only me, but Yeriel is watching from the side.
You probably know that if you do something stupid, your body will die right away.
Pharaoh looked at me and Yeriel and took out the ring from his finger.
“I-I’ll give you this!”
“What is that?”
I received the ring that Pharaoh gave me and checked it carefully.
The ring had an eye-shaped jewel and an eyebrow-shaped golden decoration around the jewel.
The pharaoh began to explain the ring to me.
“It is the pupil of Horus who created this desert! As long as you have that, this space is yours!”
“Ohh…”
By my standards, it was a much more attractive item than the staff of Osiris.
The staff of Osiris that controls the living is great, but by my standards, a ring that can create such a space and trap people feels much more great.
And I was in a situation where I had learned hypnotism, which is a backward compatibility of the Osiris staff.
Although hypnotism was far behind Osiris’s staff, it certainly had its advantages.
It had the advantage of being able to use it freely without a medium such as a staff.
‘What… Although hypnosis requires a lot of time investment…’
I thought so and looked at the ring and asked Armonia.
‘Is this a trap too? What kind of curse is put on you if you wear a ring…’
If it was a pharaoh, it was enough to do such things.
No, there was no way he handed me the ring without taking any action.
While I was doubting that, a temperament window opened in front of me and I heard Armonia’s voice.
[The pupil of Horus also has an ego like the staff of Osiris.]
=====
Eye of horus
[Space of the Sun], [Conscience], [Strictness], [Resoluteness]…
=====
‘There’s a reason Layra was embarrassed by this guy.’
To the extent that objects have egos, they would never be ordinary beings.
But Pharaoh had two such items.
‘Certainly there must be something else besides this, right? I’ll brush it off later.’
If it was that guy, there was a high possibility that he would have tucked it away somewhere.
‘Let’s check the ability first.’
[All right.]
At the same time as Armonia’s answer, the temperament window in front of me disappeared, and an explanation of the space of the sun appeared.
=====
[Space of the sun]
Another world created by Horus.
You can only pass through it using a ring, and when you want to put something in the space of the sun, the owner of the ring must accompany you unconditionally.
Living things can also be put in space, but…
..
..
It can be transferred at any time, but the recipient must wear the ring himself.
=====
After reading all the explanations, I let out a laugh through the communication.
‘But… He’s not the kind of guy who just lays down his boat.’
[It’s clearly a plan to use the ring’s flaws to put Suho in trouble.]
As Armonia said, this [Eye of Horus] Ring had one flaw apart from its great ability.
And Pharaoh must have been using this shortcoming to make things difficult for me and Jeriel.
But…
‘But I guess I don’t mind?’
[I think there is no problem.]
The flaws in Horus’ pupils were not particularly threatening to me.
Rather, by using the Eye of Horus, the problem that I and Yeriel are facing will be solved more quickly.
I think so…
“It is a unique ring.”
He immediately started putting the ring on his finger.
As I started to put the ring on, Yeriel, who was next to me, yelled at me in surprise.
“Wait for a sec! If you wear it just like that!”
Yeriel was astonished.
Wearing an item without even checking what it was was an act that should never be done unless it was an emergency.
However, since I already knew the ability of the ring, there was no particular problem.
And as soon as I put the ring on…
“Puhahahaha!!”
The pharaoh suddenly spewed out a burst of madness, and he himself turned into sand and sank into the ground.
Then she began to voice her own voice around her.
“You fool! You’ve been caught!”
“…”
“Now you guys can’t get out of here! Watch me slowly die here!! Fuhahahaha!”
I thought it was a trap, but I didn’t know that I would spit out the words I kept like that.
However, unlike me, who already knew the power of the ring, Yeriel, who was next to me, started to get angry with me.
“What if I snapped it after receiving it!?”
“…”
And after listening to her concerns, he checked the ring he was wearing.
As I stared at the ring, a voice came from the ring.
(Check for new contractors.)
I knew the ring had an ego, but I didn’t know that it would even have a voice.
And when a voice came out of the ring for Yeriel, who was next to me, she made a surprised expression.
“I have an ego… ?”
Osiris’ wand also had an ego, but since the wand didn’t speak, she couldn’t have known it.
I listened to Yeriel’s words and asked the ring a question.
“I’m trying to get out of here with my colleague, how do I get out?”
(It’s simple. Just order me while attached to the contractor.)
Hearing the words of the ring, Yariel only then let out a sigh of relief.
“Whoa… I thought he was up to something weird, but it doesn’t seem like a big deal.”
Yariel, who hadn’t yet heard of the ring’s flaws, seemed confident that of course she could get away with me.
But after that, the rings began adding additional explanations.
(Instead, there must be no living things in this space. If there are living things, the contractor can never escape this space.)
“…”
As soon as Yariel heard the explanation of the ring, she put on a serious expression and she handed her a question.
“How to forcibly release the life form outside?”
(…)
“… They don’t even respond to my words.”
It was natural.
Having an ego means basically recognizing the owner well.
I asked Yariel’s question the same way from the ring.
“If there is a life form, how to forcibly release the life form to the outside?”
And the ring’s answer came.
(In order to send a creature to the outside, the creature and the Contractor must be attached unconditionally. If the two are apart, even the Contractor cannot send everything in this place to the outside.)
As soon as the ring answered, the pharaoh’s voice resounded through the hall.
“Puhahahaha! One of you must stay here and die a miserable end!!!”
“…”
I don’t know what ability the pharaoh used to dig into the sand pile wall, but one thing was certain.
“It means that there is only one person who can go out right now.”
“…”
It was the fact that the one who wore the ring and claimed to be a contractor had to stay here.
And the current contractor was me.
I looked down at Yeriel and said a word.
“Get out at once. I’m going to tidy up here…”
In the middle of saying that, Yeriel hurriedly took a step back and then floated into the air and spoke to me.
“You came here because of me. So, what remains is me.”
“…”
I made a mistake…
I shouldn’t have said anything, I should have caught it quickly and sent it outside.
I said with a big smile on my face.
“Now I am the owner of this ring. Of course I have to stay.”
But ironically, it was Horus’ pupil that answered my words.
(You are my contractor, not my master. Be honest.)
“…”
Look at the one-eyed ring subject.
‘I’ll deal with the ring later…’
As I grabbed my forehead at the reaction of the ring, I told Yeriel.
“The way we can go out together is to catch the guy who locked us up here. If we go around together, I’m sure we’ll be able to catch it right away, right?”
There was a point in what Yeriel said.
However, the pharaoh, who was hiding somewhere, laughed and mocked as soon as he heard Yeriel’s words.
“Look for it! I can see the four years later begging a man to get out!”
“…”
Seeing the Pharaoh’s confidence, it seemed that he realized that Yeriel wouldn’t be easy either.
But I know
She knows that Yeriel is not the kind of woman who would choose to leave me…
“Looking at the disappearance, I’m sure it’s over there…”
As Yeriel listened to the pharaoh’s taunts, she began to locate her brood with the utmost concentration.
And the moment Yeriel’s nerves turned to Pharaoh…
‘Now!’
She found a gap in Yeriel.
I jumped at her, aiming for her moment when her yeriel circled behind her in the air.
“Eww!? Now wait!”
Yeriel, who was concentrating on something else, was taken aback when I held her in my arms…
“Because it’s annoying. Go wait!”
As soon as I hugged Yeriel, she said right to her ring.
“Get this girl out!”
(Approval.)
At the same time as the ring answered, Yeriel’s figure began to disappear in an instant.
And Yeriel, disappearing like her mist…
“Crawl… !!!”
She left a look of despair on her face and disappeared.
***
Pharaoh burst into laughter as he watched the girl disappear from the man’s arms.
“Puhahahaha! Foolish fellow!”
From the pharaoh’s point of view, it was foolish.
He now borrowed the power of another artifact to turn his body into sand, which mixed with the sand inside the base of the pyramid.
Even in this state, he could freely swim all over the desert.
No matter how powerful a man may be, the desert… He was also convinced that he would never be able to catch himself who could freely go to the underworld.
But the man who heard Pharaoh’s laughter…
“You have to take care of things first.”
As if he didn’t care about the pharaoh at all, he started digging through the sphinx sand pile that had collapsed earlier.
Then, inside it, Pharaoh took the [Stand of Osiris] That he had accidentally missed.
Pharaoh began to become more and more anxious at the man’s carefree appearance.
‘I… That guy… Is there really a way to get out of here?’
However, the pharaoh soon came to his senses and denied his guess.
‘No! There’s no way!! There’s no way you’ll find me turned into sand. And if he doesn’t find me, he won’t be able to leave either!’
The moment I thought so, the man started talking to the eye of Horus.
“Hey, what if I force myself to leave?”
(That’s impossible with my power. If you want to get out, let the creature go first…)
The man interrupted the eye of Horus and said.
“No, what if I just force myself to leave without your help?”
(As a rule, life cannot exist here without the contractor. If the contractor is forced to leave while the life exists…)
The eyes of Horus first clouded his words, then followed his words.
(It collects the lives of living things that exist in this space.)
‘What!? I’ve never heard of such a story!’
Pharaoh had never even thought of breaking that rule.
And of course, when the rules were broken, they had no idea how to deal with them.
While the pharaoh screamed inwardly, the man looked at him calmly.
“Hmm…”
Hearing the man’s voice, Pharaoh began to feel the chill even though he had turned to sand.
‘Oh, no. Uh, that can’t be…’
The moment the pharaoh denied it, the man smiled at the position he was supposed to be invisible to.
“Hey! I’ll take this wand with me. Be well.”
And after the man said that…
“Uh… Where… ?”
Suddenly disappeared
And as soon as he was gone, a voice rang in Pharaoh’s ears.
(Abnormal occurrence. The contractor escaped from the space of the sun using an unknown force.)
And with his body buried in the sand…
(Activation of the function to erase the remaining life forms.)
“Wait a minute! Wait, wait…”
The pharaoh was buried in the sand and suddenly hardened like a stone…
“Sah, save me!! Please live…”
Passes…
And his body turned to stone in a pile of sand that no one could find for the rest of his life…
‘Buy… Save… Give…’
Died slowly.
