Chapter 503 – 503. God’s Atlantis
503. God’s Atlantis
Herpo hurriedly ran back to his office.
He had no time for a leisurely dinner in a restaurant. If Harnea reports to the Angelus Legion, the Angelus Legion’s troops will come in a few hours.
‘Harnea! This crazy bitch betrayed me?! You treated me without embarrassment! An ungrateful bitch!’
Just thinking about it sparked a fire. To the point where I wanted to strangle Harnea right now.
But it’s never too late to take revenge later. You need to take care of the things you need to take care of now.
‘I will definitely make you regret it! Harnea!’
Returning to his office, Herpo first crawled under his desk. He lifted up the thin plate and gently scratched the cover disguised as the floor with his fingernails, then lifted it up and opened the lid of the secret compartment.
‘The ledger… No?!’
Herpo’s face was drawn. There was no ledger that could be said to be his everything.
Only with the ledger was it possible to run away from the Angelus Legion, change its appearance, and start over with a different job.
“Who, who… ?!”
There must be a ledger. The ledger was both his weakness and his lifeline. You need that to be able to continue trading and to recognize your connections.
“Bur, there is only one culprit… , No, only one year! Harnea!! Why did that damn bitch betray me! Because you stole my ledger!”
Bang! Quaang! Bang!
Herpo kicked his desk and chair in a fit of rage.
Anger rose to the tip of his head, but on the contrary, his head cooled. There was a high possibility that Harnea did not commit this incident alone.
‘Harnea is not the right person to become a ruler. He is at best obediently obedient. Someone… Someone has contacted Harnea! Maybe the one with the ledger….’
An assassination case may be involved.
‘…… This is not something I can solve alone.’
If someone intervened, killing Harnea would not change the situation. The ledger will still not be found, and the Angelus Legion, who has come, will execute himself for setting an example.
‘Let’s run away. Even if there is no ledger, there is money hidden! It will take a long time because I don’t have a ledger, but with my unique traits, I can start all over again!’
The most important thing is life. As long as I had my life, I could somehow start over.
Herpo quickly packed up his things, put the spatial teleportation spell in his arms and started sneaking out of the window.
He had to get out of the barrier surrounding the village in order to use the space movement scroll.
But Herpo didn’t get far. Because someone was blocking his way.
•••
Herpo, who had been arguing so ugly in the restaurant, stormed out the door of the restaurant with a sigh.
“…… It looked bad for you. Please rest assured that I will contact the Angelus Legion. I will definitely solve this.”
Sister Harnea told the people.
When she stepped out, her nuns and children seemed relieved. She doesn’t even know that she’s a human no different from Herpo.
‘I’m pretending to be cool, but inside, I’m sure my shit is burning.’
The reason why Harnea betrayed Herpo. That’s because her I used her ledger to blackmail her. I promised her life in return for betraying her herpo. Of course, from my point of view, it’s a promise that doesn’t matter if you pretend you don’t know at any time.
‘Shall we go see the herpo?’
Taking advantage of the gap where everyone’s eyes were on Harnea, he sneaked out the door.
There is only one place for Herpo to go. Where the ledger was.
Haha…. It works as expected.’
I hid my presence and followed Herpo. I intend to stun him in a suitable place and capture him alive. Although there is a ledger, the difference between living and dead is huge. If he dies here, the Angelus Legion will kick off and start cutting off the tail.
‘Where should I gohaha.’
However, someone appeared in front of Herpo faster than me. An angel with white wings and pink hair that fell from the sky. Ariel.
‘I thought he’d be sitting in a corner somewhere crying… Were you watching Herpo?’
The angel of the rainbow, Ariel, is mentally young. No, pure is the right word. That’s why she, an angel, can’t take on the heavy responsibility of the Angelus Legion and is here in a remote place like this.
‘But the power I have is real.’
I decided to watch it for once.
“Ah, Ariel-sama… !”
Herpo, who was running away, was taken aback.
“Where are you going?”
“Now, I’m feeling frustrated for a while, so I’m thinking of going out of town.”
“Do not lie. You intend to run away.”
Cold sweat broke out on Herpo’s sweaty face.
“Are you lying? Am I lying now? Ariel-sama, can’t you grasp the truth? Ariel. Trust me. I am really sorry.”
“You are telling the truth. It feels that way. But cheating the truth is lying, right? I don’t trust you If you’re really telling the truth… There is no need to run away from here now.”
Ariel spread her wings. Her wings begin to shimmer with iridescent light, and the wind begins to gather around her.
“Huh! Ariel! Gee, calm down! I’ll be back! I’ll go back and get some self-restraint, so please calm down!”
The blade of the invisible wind cut through Herpo’s body. His clothes are torn, and blood splatters from his skin. The blade of the wind did not cut deeply into his body.
“Is that what you did? You killed humans…. I sold my children.”
“No! No! Ariel! Please listen! Aagh! Arm… !”
My arm was cut by the wind as if it were ground in a blender. It was not fatal. If you use a potion, you can be cured within a few hours.
“Herpo. You have to pay for your sins.”
“I am innocent! Everyone Harnea, that bitch’s lie… Aaaaagh!”
“If you’re so proud, there’s no reason to run away. Why are you humans lying? Lying is a sin The more you lie, the darker your soul becomes. You shouldn’t lie, even for your own sake.”
A wind appeared in front of Ariel. Whirlwind. The invisible wind appeared before her eyes. A wind that can easily tear a person apart.
“Damn it… ! Damn you bitch! I’m not lying!”
The nervous Herpo started to run away from Ariel, swearing.
“… Okay. That’s your nature Punishing people who have sinned. My sister said that’s one of the things angels have to do. Herpo. I will punish you.”
I couldn’t just keep watching. If possible, I didn’t want to be involved with Ariel in this way. But just now, Ariel had a murderous intent towards Herpo. Herpo will die if left alone.
‘Write! Heavenly Demon God!’
He raised the Heavenly Demon and leaped forward, swinging his fist into the wind.
Quaang!
Ariel’s whirlwind blew away with her fist.
“Human?!”
“Kang Myung-jin?!”
Ariel and Herpo were startled by my intrusion. I stood in front of Herpo.
“Get out of the way, human. Herpo must die!”
“I can’t get away.”
“Oh, oh! Myungjin Kang! I will not forget this help! I will definitely pay you back, so please stop that angel for just a moment!”
Herpo’s face brightened. Contrary to what he said, he didn’t even look at me and only tried to run away. I was very annoyed when I saw the guy’s face. I didn’t like the fact that I had to step out to save this guy.
Fuck!
“Ouch!!”
He swung his fist and hit Herpo on the head, knocking him out.
“Ariel. The crimes he has committed must be punished according to the laws of men. The death penalty is certain, so don’t worry. I will take this guy.”
“…… You.”
Ariel did not back down. Rather, she showed hostility toward me. It’s worse than the hostility towards Herpo.
“You smell like the devil. You made a contract with the devil!”
“Ah.”
I understood what caused her violent reaction.
Heavenly Demon God.
I felt the power of magic.
“… You tricked me too.”
“I never cheated.”
“You were hiding that demonic power!”
“It is not the power of the devil, but the martial art called the Heavenly Demon Singong. And it’s not hidden, it’s just unused. Because I didn’t have to.”
“Don’t try to trick me! I won’t be easily fooled by you humans anymore!”
Ariel reacted sensitively. Powerful winds gather around her. Now that it’s like this, fighting her is indispensable.
‘… Shit. Ariel was planning to attack her slowly, but she’s not going her way.’
「The fallen star sponsors 10,000 AP.
“Tear off your wings and kill me!”
I ignored the message from the fallen star. Kill? Sounds funny. It’s something my dick won’t allow.
“The devil who ruins the world must be eliminated! Even the humans who follow that devil!”
“Great. Because I am not a demon.”
I kicked Herpo’s body to the side. This is to prevent getting caught up in a fight and dying.
He raised the heavenly demon all over his body. A sharp wind wrapped around my body, but it didn’t do any damage.
‘It consumes a lot of mana, but she has no intention of prolonging the battle. We have to finish the battle before anyone else finds out.’
Heavenly Demon God Dragon Fist.
She threw her fist at her as she flew through the sky. From her fists, her heavenly demon qi spreads out in a straight line like a laser. However, Dragon Fist was unable to pierce the wind curtain surrounding Ariel.
‘If Dragon Fist doesn’t work, I have no choice but to get closer and swing my fist.’
Jumped into the air She needs to take a shot before she soars too high.
“This is a place for children! Why are you guys Are you making innocent kids unhappy?! I cannot forgive you!”
The wind moved as if it were alive and grabbed me by the waist and lifted me up. Even though she was wearing the Heavenly Demon flag all over her body, she was momentarily shocked as if her mind was blown away.
Rising higher than Ariel, high in the sky, I sensed the wind gathering around me. Ariel intends to turn me into wind in the sky.
Heavenly Demon Demonic Dragon.
I rotated the heavenly demon that surrounded my whole body. It was as if I had become a black whirlwind. I reversed the wind that was about to grind my body, kicked the air, gained momentum, and fell towards Ariel.
“…… !!”
Surprised, Ariel hurriedly flaps her wings to avoid it. But my hand caught the tip of her left wing. My body’s rotating heavenly demon moves toward Ariel.
Ariel’s wings were ripped off. I grabbed Ariel’s ankle with my other hand. The spinning demon came out and wrapped around her body.
“Kyaaaaah!”
We crashed to the floor at the same time.
Aaaaang!
Vortex marks were left on the ground. This is because the spinning Cheonmagi hit the ground.
I managed to land well because I was prepared in advance, but Ariel wasn’t.
‘Since he’s an angel, he probably didn’t die just this much, right?’
I hurriedly checked Ariel’s condition. Her left wing was torn and tattered, and her clothes and skin were cut and bloody. The joints in her legs and arms were also twisted. She seems to have lost consciousness, but her breathing continues and her heart is beating. Fortunately, she was alive.
‘… She planned to capture only Herfo, but somehow she got Ariel as well. Is this killing two birds with one stone?’
I hugged Ariel carefully. Already made a fuss. Sooner or later, children and nuns will appear. She must leave her post before then.
I kicked Herpo, who was stretched out on the floor, and dribbled and left.
“Coke!”
Blood splattered from her mouth.
‘I have some internal injuries. Was the Hoicheon Demon Dragon still unreasonable with my skills?’
It was when I entered the alley.
“Heavenly Demon. This way.”
Sasha led me to her house where she is staying. She didn’t even bother sneaking into the cathedral, so she moved after her.
There was no hurry.
‘It’s a lie that Harnea calls the Angelus Legion. In fact, there’s no way the Angelus Legion will come even after a few hours.’
When they come and sort things out, I’m like a dog chasing chickens. I had no intention of doing anything good for them.
Sasha’s house is old, but quite large. And unlike other children, it seems that he lives alone.
“…… I’m leaving town in two months. Thanks to you, I am being taken care of in many ways. …… The children I was living with have already left the village.”
Sasha said to me as I looked around the house.
“It’s nice to be quiet. Sasha. Call Lucy.”
