Chapter 815 – 806 Led Passage
The Millennium Road to the Millennium Palace, the heart of Passage.
The smooth slabs of unknown material were paved in a straight line from the west gate to the central castle. There was no trash or dust, and the slabs were spotless, so it was a very clean and strange road.
It’s early, but there are no people and no animals. All that exists is the air of the exhibition that weighs heavily on the chest.
= Hwanin Seongje-nim, prepare the wagon now…=
『As the visit is not for the purpose of tourism or promotion of friendship, I will refrain from using the carriage.』
=Yes, yes.=
Hwan-in, who ruthlessly rejected the offer, summoned Behema among the demonic spirits.
A translucent witch beast the size of a small house came running with a growl, and her bastard Cardinal Le Arwen and the Order’s battle priests following her stiffened.
A large truck-sized, black-gray monster that looks like a mixture of a lion, a tiger, and a dragon, is a larva of the land beast Behemoth, and is a creature with the unique property of perverting even though it is a mammal.
As much as it is called a larva, if it successfully perverts, it becomes a top-level monster called Behemoth and is called a ‘living disaster’.
The size varies greatly, but the big monster has wings as big as a small city, has twin horns like a dragon, scales that are as hard as diamonds all over its body, and so on.
Behemoths that have lived for a long time are known to gain intellect and spirituality and become divine beings, so even their larvae, Behemas, reach 7th or 8th grade.
『Tara.』
Hwanin stood on Behema’s head and beckoned to Ji-yul and the two Kims, and Leawen, who was staring blankly at it, was startled and summoned a higher-level contract spirit of the wind and climbed on its back, which looked like a griffin.
「Kuhuhhh—!」
Right after that, Behema rushed forward, and Leawen also hurriedly followed.
Leaving the priests alone, the chasing cardinal and the underground army of spirits covering the skies over the capital Passage stared at him.
“Mister. Yeohui’s force field seems to have a slightly different function between the inside and outside.”
“How different.”
“The outside is specialized in defense and interception with physical force repulsion, magical aiming reflection, contact resistance, and phase force emission… The inside restricts wide-area space movement, suppresses internal explosions, circulates atmospheric phases, absorbs phase power… It is like this.”
“It’s not strange even if it’s a biological wide-area defense weapon. Can this be lumped together as a station field?”
“I am amazed too. Because I didn’t expect the performance to be different inside and outside.”
At Hwanin’s self-talk, Yul Jiha nodded his head, followed Behema’s neck and climbed up to his head, pointing at the central castle with a chin beside him and said,
“There is a double station field. What I just said is the effect of the force field outside the inner wall and inside the outer wall, and the force field inside the wall covering the Millennium Castle has a different function. Don’t you feel something intentional?”
“Would you like to say that Yeo Hwi looked into the future and drew a big picture?”
“Didn’t you keep looking down at Passage because you thought so? Who runs away and who doesn’t?”
That’s what it says. God’s eyes can see the soul colors of life at any distance, like night vision goggles, regardless of obstacles.
With those eyes, he could see the entire central castle inside the inner wall and the mansions of the eight royal families, now reduced to seven.
“… What is the function of the inner wall force field?”
“Repulsion and absorption, suppression of phase force, closure. There are only three.”
“If you suppress the phase power, all actions using the phase force inside will be restricted.”
“Except for those who are from wanderers or those who are unique or rare who don’t use phase power as an energy source.”
The gazes of Hwanin and Jiha-ryul crossed heavily. That’s why there was no response to escape from inside the castle.
“Kim Cheol-soo, Kim Young-soo. Go immediately and secure Tabianus Turcion.”
“Yep.”
“Yes.”
The moment the order was given, the two disappeared without hesitation. Hwanin then looked back at the underground rate and gave instructions.
“Reading the restrictions on space movement must mean that you can expand the field with your ability and block the phenomenon of space movement only in passages. Do it.”
“He’s a man who treats people badly!”
The 18-year-old high school girl’s face was frowned upon, and instead of saying that she couldn’t do it, she closed her eyes and gathered her strength, and began to radiate blazing blue phase power with her whole body.
Seeing her like that, her phantom stopped her behema, and at that moment, her underground Yul stretched out her hands to the sky, and at the same time, a pillar of blue energy was shot toward the sky.
The energy collides with something in the empty sky and spreads out in a dome shape to cover the entire passage.
Its surface, which is in the form of a film, is an image that makes you feel anxious when you look at it because the phase power seems to wave.
“It’s three hours. Make a decision within three hours.”
Even in the eyes of the underground rate looking up and muttering, a thick fog of phase power was flowing down.
Three hours should be enough.
Hwanin, who looked around for a while, summoned a snake with only a skeleton and some high-level naga spirits and ordered them to keep the underground law.
Her spirit appears to be her concentration-type barrier, so she needs to be protected.
When Behema prostrated herself, a skeleton snake tens of meters long coiled itself around the underground yul.
Her appearance was mostly hidden by the bones of the Skeleton Serpent, but fifty Nagas of average rank 5 perched in some visible positions, closely monitoring the surroundings.
The sudden change of circumstances made Le Awen approach Hwanin, who stood in her way with her embarrassed face, and asked.
= Seongje Yeha? Now this…=
『It is a barrier that blocks space movement to prevent the escaping of the meeting and criminals.』
=Well, if that’s the case, the priests of the church are already spreading it…=
“A double measure would be more certain.”
Learwen, who has lost her words, floats her body about 50 meters with her super space-time. Then, most of her city center came into view and his senses caught the atmosphere changing like a tightly stretched rubber band.
Feelings of fear and fear evoked by those who sneaked out of the house to start their day because the day was bright and ran back into the house.
Could it be because he gained spiritual divinity that he could also feel the emotions emanating from people?
‘To live in modern times, all of these abilities must be suppressed close to being sealed.’
While muttering to himself, he used the moment that had occurred to spread the soul response, putting the entire city within the range of the response, while attracting all the souls.
If it had been like this before, it would have caused an overheat in the head due to the memory of the soul flowing back, but now the backflow of memories did not occur, perhaps because the relationship was overwhelmingly superior.
Hwanin sorted out the gathered souls.
If you were a warrior or warrior with excellent abilities during your lifetime, you will immediately proceed with the heroic transformation through a summary contract, and investigate whether or not the soul is related to the Destiny Society, the seven royal families, or nobles.
Souls that had nothing to do with anything spread a wave of tranquility and made them attain Buddhahood right away, and nobles and those with even a slight kinship made them into soul beads and stored them in the soul vault.
Le Awen, who had been sneaking around on the wind spirit as if wandering around Hwanin, looked at it and slightly distorted his face.
The number of souls that flocked to him was close to spirited.
‘How can it be that less than a year has passed since the Ascension of Heaven happened?’
I expected that there would be a certain amount of accumulated souls because I hadn’t been looking for a soul master for a month or two, but that number far exceeded my expectations.
It is a phenomenon that cannot appear without large-scale murders targeting people in the city.
Hwanin also frowned in his own way.
It is a method of obtaining information unilaterally rather than linking souls and consciousness, but there are many problems in trying to verify the truth of the information based on the information obtained in this way.
Among the spirits, there were also nobles, so there are many places I want to investigate myself, but I run out of time to run on my own two feet, and I am not sure about giving instructions to Kim Chul-soo and Kim Young-soo, who will be returning soon.
If there is a fantasy, I’ll check it out right away.
“…”
For a moment, Hwanin gazed at the strong and brilliant light of the soul located alone on the highest tower of the central castle, and retrieved the octa crocus that floated over the city like a balloon with a soul orb.
Then he shifts his sight to the main body.
Rijina raised foam and was advancing rapidly with two high-ranking water spirits and Baeknyeogang’s water manipulation power.
If you roughly calculate the distance, the speed at which you will arrive at Jormunsen Island in the next 3 to 4 hours.
Hwanin patted his inner pocket. At that signal, Hwanyeon sticks her head out of her arms and looks up at him.
“Why?”
“Could it possibly appear in another place after going over to the ghost world?”
“Is it possible. I guess you ran into a difficult situation in the passage?」
“Okay. I need your help in a quick search of the city based on information obtained through the spirits.”
Hwan-yeon pointed to a high-level water spirit who had completely escaped from his arms and pulled the boat in front of the player.
“If I go, the speed of the ship will drop below 1/4 of what it is now. Are you okay though?」
When the octa crocus was made a heroic spirit by her story, Hwanyeon nodded silently and disappeared with a pong sound effect and a few drops of water.
At the same time, the upper water spirits also returned to the ghost world, so Hwanin ordered Octa Crocus to pull the boat.
=Doryeong?=
Anne, leaning her body against the railing of her boat, sees the water spirit and octacrocus alternating, and with her eyes slightly widened, she approaches him.
“Why?”
=Suddenly, that octopus started pulling the boat… Did you finish your business in the passage?=
“I am still watching. We’re on the verge of setting up a barrier to prevent the members of the Fellowship from escaping and carrying out an extensive search.”
=Ahang.=
Around that time, Hwanyeon also appeared on one side of her body, so he talked to Anne while talking to her.
=So what about Leah? Did you meet?=
“They were kneeling at the entrance waiting for me. I’m a little embarrassed, so I’m harassing you.”
= Huh?=
Bully? Leah? Why is the dolyeong? Did he do something wrong?
Hwanin laughed lightly at Anne, who was so confused that she threw countless hooks over her head, and slapped her buttocks with a bang.
“Since we called Hwanyeon over there, Octa Crocus will pull the boat until we reach the island. Go and talk to Baekryeogang.”
She’s busy. At her signal to stay away for a while, she pouted her lips cutely and left for Baek Ryogang, who was concentrating on her mind while scratching at the spot where they had been hit.
Hwanin-do’s point of view was turned forward and his eyes were turned to clone 1 to focus on the illusion and conversation.
“Shall we collect evidence? There are several items that seem to have been provided by the Destiny Society. It must be something made using modern technology.”
“My existence itself is evidence, so there is no need to collect it. If what the spirit said is true, just mark the family and the family members with spirit power.”
“Looks like you’re planning on killing me all at once.”
“It’s not dignified to kill yourself.”
“… Who are the people you’ve killed so far?”
Hwanyeon made an absurd expression, but Hwanin remained calm.
“Is there any reason to call things that hunt and eat the same person as people? They were less than human by my standards.”
At his calm reply, Hwanyeon, who had mobilized all the wind spirits, earth spirits, fire spirits, and water spirits to hunt for the passage, stared at him.
Seeing that person say that, it means he’s already prepared something.
“Say. What are you up to?”
“Since I suffered enough to die, shouldn’t they also suffer enough to die?”
“Dynamic Revenge? It’s good. If those who are related to them do that, what about the meeting?」
Hwanin laughed at that question, and Hwanyeon rubbed his arm with goosebumps.
I don’t know what they’re trying to do, but it’s not okay for those humans to die gracefully.
“And one more. Do you remember the Gaya Ciranel you met in the Forest of Giants?”
“Summer solstice. Anne’s classmate.”
“Look over her to see if she is in the city. If not, she does, if she has found even a trace.”
“You were reported missing. Wouldn’t he be dead?”
“If you are dead, you need to find the people involved in the death, so you need traces anyway.”
“Okay.”
Gaya = If Cira Nell is really dead, she should make her and her related people look like her and save her honor.
Because that’s her and her promise.
3 minutes later.
Gaya = Ciranel was not found even by searching for fantasy.
The only places she couldn’t find were the inside of the 7th royal family’s mansion and the entire inside of the central castle, where measures were taken to prevent spirit invasion.
‘Let’s put that aside for now.’
With the eyes of God, Hwanin watched the two spirit-colored people, Kim Chul-soo and Kim Young-soo, who were constantly wandering around the north of the central castle.
The two of them, who went to find the director, initially wanted to scan the northeastern part of the castle, but now they are wandering around the central castle.
If it’s still like that after 5 minutes of rushing in, the woman called the director must have prepared for the abilities of the two.
Hwanyeon also crossed her arms next to him and furrowed her eyebrows as if she had thought of that.
「Hwanin. Cheol Young-soo, aren’t those guys caught? Why are you so late?”
“I didn’t get caught. The director is digging around the castle to see if he has prepared measures to prevent kidnapping.”
「Oh dear. Then come back and get new instructions, stupid.”
He must have been looking for him to carry out his order to bring him back, but Hwanin was not disappointed or regretful.
There is no expectation, so there is no disappointment.
As he flies toward the central castle to move forward in earnest, the heroic army follows.
When they deployed their heroic army and had the castle besieged, Leawen, who rode the wind spirit and followed behind, became contemplative and shouted.
= Seongjae Yeha!? Attacking the millennium… !=
『Cardinal Leawen.』
=… Yes?=
“Are you ordering me now?”
= Kuh… !!=
The moment his eyes met the Holy Emperor, Le Awen felt the illusion and sensation that his soul was forcibly extracted.
An extreme sense of alienation and alienation, as if the soul and body are being separated to the extent that one wonders if it would be like this when one dies.
Due to the shock, all of the body protection spells that were usually performed were forcibly cancelled, and even the riding spirits were reverse-summoned and crashed to the ground.
50m above ground. If you fall head first, no matter how cardinal you are, as long as you are a magician, your head will break like a watermelon and die.
Hwanin grabbed her by the collar and hung her in the air while opening her mouth without a difference in accent.
“As the cardinal knows, I also have a fairly competent intelligence group. So, just like you researched me, I researched the cardinal in my own way… I was able to receive a rather interesting report.”
= Ugh… Ugh, oh… Oh…=
“Are you saying it was a misunderstanding? Everything from approaching the person who will become her brother-in-law to stealing information from the beauty world and spreading information that would make it difficult for her father-in-law and mother-in-law to cause great property damage.”
=… !=
Even as she struggled with the sensation of opening her skull and squeezing her brain with her hands, Le Arwen desperately opened her mouth.
= Misunderstanding… Is… ! Please please… !=
After staring at Le Arwen for a moment, her complexion turning livid, her phantom laughed coldly and threw her into the fountain seen beyond her.
Whew—float and sinking as it splashed her splash, Le Arwen floundered in her thigh-deep fountain, and she barely clung to the edge of her fountain, gasping.
Hwanin also knows. She knew that what Le Arwen had done for her was for the comfort of her father-in-law, Grapparden, and her mother-in-law, Chou Anade.
But the plan she chose is problematic.
To sum up what she did, she deliberately brought her very old mistakes into public view and came under political attack so that her father-in-law, the grown-up couple, could abdicate the throne for good reasons.
I understand your intentions.
If the father-in-law had not stepped down from the throne, there would have been a full-scale political confrontation with the Turcion family, and then Miriastum would have been in great danger as it began to be attacked by Turcion, the Tower of Green Leaves, the Dimensional Administration, and the Desolation Society.
Miriastum is the parental home of her official lover, Anne.
If time passed and the intention of this side became clear, Turcion would have attacked Myriastum passionately, because there was no reason to leave it alone.
Looking at this far, I wonder what the problem is, but the problem is that she chose her choice and that Astum lost in advance because of it.
Le Awen chose her beauty world to contact Mirias Turm, and she approached Mirias Turm’s next head, Ele Del = Sline = Mirias Turm.
While building her friendship with him, she made him a friendship with the Order of the Land Gods to secure her safety, and through him steal away the father-in-law’s political mistakes and weaknesses.
But is it because the time spent attached to each other is long? Reawen and Eledel became ‘seriously’ deep friends.
As a result, the land god cult came to influence the Miriastum family. The cardinal entered the royal house as a hostess.
The political mistake of attacking the father-in-law was also worthy of using the word ‘if it is necessary’.
There is no right answer in politics and reign, and there are many cases where national projects carried out with good intentions yielded bad results, and the choice of the father-in-law couple was an extension of that.
The expansion of the ranch to facilitate the city’s meat supply brought in a powerful monster and the disappearance of a small village is a common and unavoidable disaster in Nionebres.
The royal family of Miriastum, who was attacked for that point, had to pay a large amount of compensation “In a moral sense” To the officials of the village who were destroyed by the monster’s attack, and their finances deteriorated considerably.
Of course, the majority of the reparation money went into Turcyon’s pocket.
The intention was good, but the process and results were all dissatisfied.
Seeing Le Arwen, who is much smaller than Anne, but more mature than her, clinging to the edge of her fountain, she said calmly but in a reproachful voice.
“What you chose was neither a good process nor a good outcome. The intention was to save them, but he used him as a beauty for a plan, and the political mistakes consumed for the plan also greatly reduced Miriastum’s prestige. Am I wrong?”
= That, that… !=
“If your father-in-law’s continued presence on the throne came as a great risk, it was enough for her to resign, using Anne’s position as an excuse to worry about the political repercussions that would lead to Yeongdo. After that, it was okay for her to build friendships with the three of them because she delivered news from Anne and shared information about me.”
=…=
Ah! That, that must have made you angry…
Apparently, her mood wasn’t bad until she communicated with Anne, but somehow.
Leawen made no reply, choking like a drowned mouse. Anything you say now will feel like an excuse.
Fortunately, seeing as he spoke through words rather than prophecies, perhaps his anger had eased a little.
Still, I feel like I want to complain a little bit. At the time, the atmosphere was really on the verge, so I acted that way…
=Sorry… Do. My… It was a mistake due to hasty judgment… Yes.=
“We’ll do that again later in Anne’s presence.”
Tick tock tock… !
Turning his head at the sound of footsteps, Hwanin found a priestess with an aura similar to that of Leawen and high-ranking officials from the Church of the Earth God running from the castle with earthy faces.
Judging from the clothing and armaments, the priestess must be a cardinal like Leawen, and the rest must be a high-ranking combatant of the Order.
Even if we run into each other, it is obvious that only meaningless words will be exchanged.
Hwanin left them halfway to Leaven, then came up over the city again in super space-time and began to release his divinity in earnest.
The air shuddered lightly, and Asin’s presence spread far and wide across the city, the tension of the war clouds filling the city disappeared in an instant, and a suffocating heaviness settled over the entire passage, as if the vegetation trembled in fear.
No one comes out of the house. Small animals that roamed around hide in their nests or crouch in corners where there is no light and tremble.
Unlike them, both the troops of the Church of the Land Gods and the royal troops of the central castle, which were besieging the central castle, knelt down and bowed their heads like believers who witnessed a divine deity.
The same goes for the owners of the color of the soul seen inside the centrality.
The soul light of high-ranking aristocrats and those who must be royalty sway or stumble.
“Hwanyeon, don’t follow me and hide yourself around here.”
“Are you going to see Yeo Hwi?”
“Okay. Quickly organize and come back.”
Hwanin, who inflicted a temporary mental attack on the entire castle, manifested super-time and space and moved to the figure with a strong and dazzling soul on the top floor of the tower in the central castle.
I did…
『… ?』
A character, but not a character.
『A stone statue, there must have been a reason Ji Ha-ryul said that.』
All activities are forcibly stopped while Yeo-hwi is performing the force field, and she is unable to move and cannot eat or sleep. Instead, it said that it would be in a state like the power of a god, nullifying all attacks.
Hwanin looked up at the stone statue that was judged to be Yeo-hwi.
Did you say Gemkind?
It looks like a stone statue, but also feels like a person, and even has a metallic texture. Wouldn’t the statue of Goddess, who is the object of reverence in fantasy novels, be like that?
Hwanin raised his right hand while carefully looking at the 3m-tall stone statue with ruddy lips and pink nipples, naked and wearing only gold jewelry.
Yeo-hwi’s state right now is a kind of trance state. If you bathe in the waves of tranquility, you will wake up from the trance by the stimulation of your soul.
Hwanin, who was about to burst into a wave of serenity, clenched his fists at the sound of a delicate female voice resonating somewhere.
《I’ve been waiting for you, you who will become the god of the other world.》
