120 – Bishop (2)
“…… “
No one opens their mouth first.
In frozen time.
There is a lot of tension.
Roar again.
Zegalin realized that a ray of sweat was flowing down his forehead.
I clearly feel the sensation of something crawling up my spine.
Something unknown stirs deep within my heart.
She soon realized what it was.
Fear.
It is an important emotion for survival.
Unfortunately, it was of no help here at all.
I forcefully gritted my teeth.
The moment I tried to force my body to move.
“Now that I think about it, it was rude.”
The man wearing a robe slowly opened his mouth.
What… ?
Zegalin blinked her eyes at her puzzlement.
Whether it is or not, the man showed courtesy that was typical of the Middle Ages.
A posture in which one leg is lowered and one’s body is bowed.
Immediately I opened my hands exaggeratedly.
It’s bizarre.
And it’s strange.
Jegalin’s eyes frowned at the attitude that could only be described as such.
“In a way, I am the first guest to come to the sanctuary. “It seemed like excessive use of sword techniques was a bit excessive.”
“…… “
“…… “
The man crossed his arms and nodded arbitrarily.
He looks like he is mentally unstable.
Although she has been taught not to deal with crazy people.
‘… There are no gaps.’
Unfortunately, the other person showed no signs of letting go.
Even if I’m in that state where I’m talking to myself and muttering to myself.
They did not slow down in their response at all.
He was probably a strong man who rose to the top after going through numerous life-threatening crises.
If I made a hasty move, my head would be taken away at that moment.
Just-!
Just then, the man snapped his fingers as if he had a good idea.
“Let’s do it like this. “Instructor Jegalin.”
The man called me in a friendly manner, as if he were a friend.
Zegalin frowned at her, but she didn’t do anything to stop him.
Encouraged by that action, he slowly walks towards the two.
“… Miss.”
From Noble mtl dot com
“… Are you okay. Stay still. Rune. “It doesn’t look like it’s going to break any time soon.”
After narrowing the distance to some extent, the man pointed to the surroundings.
“Aren’t you curious?”
Things that are said out loud.
But Zegalin, a clever man, understood what she meant.
“… Around here. “A story about facilities?”
“That’s right, you’re smart as expected. “If you are a clever person, you would have guessed what purpose these were made for.”
“…… “
Nod your head slowly.
I definitely figured it out as soon as I came in.
The man smiled.
He covered his face with a mask and a robe, but I could feel that.
“Then I guess I’m curious about the next step.”
“…… “
“What are you trying to achieve through these, and what are you ultimately trying to achieve. “Don’t you want to check it out?”
The man walked past the two.
Give a light hand and tell them to follow you.
“Come slowly. “I want to show you something special.”
Zegalin looked at the man who turned his back defenselessly.
In a way, this was a chance for a surprise attack or an opportunity to escape.
Rune next to him also muttered and expressed the same meaning.
“… Miss. It’s not possible. It’s too dangerous. “Escape right now-“
“-… I have to make time anyway. Rune.”
I had to judge it calmly.
Surprise?
There was such a large gap between the men and their own power that it was difficult to make up for it with such actions.
Then the only thing left is to run.
That also wasn’t feasible.
The area around here is a place where a thick layer of magic energy spreads out like a barrier.
It was difficult to properly use space magic.
Therefore, for the runes to demonstrate their power, time was needed to adapt.
‘… So for now.’
All in all, it was right to follow him.
As an aside, Zhugelin was also curious.
The identity of the man under that mask.
And the result he said he would show here.
Zegalin, whose thoughts had reached that point, clenched his fists tightly.
I hate to admit it, but.
The man in front of her understood her essence well.
It’s as if we’ve known each other for a long time.
“… Let’s go.”
“Yes, lady.”
After making their judgment, Jegalin and Run carefully followed the man.
*
How far did you walk?
The man stopped at an awkward midpoint.
A location without any walls or devices.
But Zhugelin realized that this place had meaning.
“… Separate space?”
“That’s great.”
A short compliment.
Immediately afterwards, the shadow spread, bringing the three people into a different environment in an instant.
A place lined with numerous mechanical facilities.
Jegalin’s eyes narrow at the incredible technology that was created in the basement.
“… Here is… “Isn’t it an underground waterway?”
“Just as I thought, this is a completely different place. “The place you visited in the first place was a place that could be abandoned at any time.”
“…… “
I continue to follow the man who answered teasingly.
It was at that time.
At some point, Jegalin stopped before the man could speak.
‘… What?’
Instinctive sense of discomfort.
At the same time, the pressure is heartbreaking.
He gasps for air as if something huge is holding his heart and gaining more and more strength.
Jegalin swallowed her dry saliva, feeling a different fear that she had never felt before in her life.
Turn your head slowly.
There……
“…… What?”
I saw a gigantic being with no end in sight.
The reason it was named existence was because it was difficult to determine whether it was a living thing or not.
‘… Machine?’
No.
Not that kind.
So, weapons designed with magic?
Deny.
Like a golem, it is not an artificial being created with thorough magic.
‘… Chimera… Is it true?’
I couldn’t even figure that out.
Just something huge.
Something absolute.
Has four feet and four arms.
A being with countless hair-like tentacles.
It could not be defined as anything other than a ‘body’ with overwhelming mass and endless violence.
“… “Isn’t it beautiful?”
At that moment, a man’s voice cuts through my thoughts.
He raised his hands up and bowed towards ‘something’ as if he was seeing a wonderful being.
“It took quite a bit of hard work to make that.”
Zegalin listened silently to the man’s words.
He explained.
The key to an operation that has been planned for a very long time.
It is a ‘vessel’ to contain the great One.
“… Him?”
“Your guess is probably correct.”
The devil… Is it true?
Zegalin quietly bit his lip.
I knew it, but I realized the meaning of the robes the man in front of me was wearing.
Pagans who worship unclean demon gods and worship the devil.
And among them, he must have reached the highest position of bishop.
‘… ‘The seal of the six demons has not been broken.’
For the Demon King whose seal has not been broken, everything is incomplete.
A being that can be destroyed by even the most ridiculously small things.
That is the sealed demon lord.
Jegalin, whose thoughts had reached that point, slowly put together the facilities he had passed in front of him and the man’s words.
‘… A vessel that will completely receive the power of the Demon King.’
Body for it.
Jegalin finally understood.
Why did he collect villains’ body parts?
He created a crude chimera.
‘… At first, I thought they were going to create a monster with multiple abilities like Choi Si-woo… ‘
No.
In fact, it is quite the opposite.
The man in front of me wanted that something huge to have overwhelming resistance, defense, and regenerative power that could withstand ‘any supernatural ability.’
At that moment, Jegalin remembered the incident that happened at the academy.
‘Blazer Scorpion’ boasted outrageous regenerative power.
And the core that was the core of all power.
“… “The demon beast was a preliminary experiment for this.”
“That’s amazing. “Can you deduce that far with just a few clues?”
The man let out an exclamation as if he was truly surprised by Jegalin’s words.
Clap clap clap-.
Dry applause bursts out from the hands.
Zegalin took a step back.
Cold sweat flows down my forehead.
This, this was really not an ordinary thing.
It is definitely a disaster and a disaster.
It is absurd that this thing descends into the middle of the city and runs rampant.
If what he thinks is correct, this will not simply end in casualties.
‘… All demon lords’ seals will be released quickly.’
A large amount of demonic energy that can only be described as terrible will spread throughout the world.
As if in agreement with that, the Demon King’s seal will be released quickly.
In the end……
The absolute ‘Demon God’ will also quickly descend on this world.
“… Gulp.”
Zegalin swallowed so much that his throat rang.
What should I do?
What should I do?
How can we stop this huge thing?
She did her best to keep her head in this situation.
Did she feel sorry for that?
The man who was watching continued speaking calmly as if it was no big deal.
“Actually, it was completed a long time ago.”
“… What… go?”
Is there already something like this?
“I’m sure I agree with him. A being that can exert power beyond its limits at any time and as much as it wants. “It is literally a divine punishment in the truest sense of the word.”
“…… “
“But the timing wasn’t right, so I saved it.”
“… Period?”
“Originally, it should have started about a month ago… “Because they did something amazing.”
Rather, we decided to aim for the optimal time.
“…… “
Zegalin was confused.
I don’t know what this man in front of me is saying.
“Well, it seems difficult to understand. To sum up… “It means that you and I have the same common enemy.”
“… Enemy?”
“Association. And the remnants hiding behind. Well, there are even pest-like villains who run amok without even knowing their subject. “I will be able to completely clean up all the bugs that won’t go away no matter how much I kill them.”
“…… !”
Zegalin was shocked.
Slow tone.
It’s just an explanation as if it’s not a big deal.
I could clearly see how deep the core of emotions contained therein was.
I feel deep, deep anger, wrath, and anger.
It had formed layer after layer over a long period of time, becoming an abyss that went beyond resentment and hatred.
“… Gulp.”
I swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.
That mindset of hating villains to an abnormal degree.
The ambition to destroy the association no matter what happens.
Even if it meant bringing about the disaster called ‘Demon God’ in the world, he showed a twisted determination to do it.
At that moment, someone crosses my mind.
Someone you know.
No matter what sacrifice he had to make, he did whatever he could to destroy evil.
That person and the man in front of him were very similar.
“… “You can’t believe-“
“-Up to there. “No matter how much I am, if I put my name on it, I can’t look at it any more.”
“…… “
“So from here on out, this is a personal suggestion. “Instructor Jegalin.”
The man held out his hand.
Seriously.
Carefully.
And then slowly.
In some ways, it was a desperate gesture.
“Won’t you join hands with me?”
“… What… yo. This?”
“I don’t like it, but I lost one, no, three, capable subordinates recently. I didn’t think it was a big deal… It hurts more than I thought. It’s the same with information warfare, and it’s crucially difficult to carry out activities with peace of mind. “She was a woman who did a lot for me, whether I knew it or not.”
“…… “
Zegalin silently looked at the man’s hand.
‘I’m serious.’
Ironically, that thought crosses my mind.
The man in front of me was sincerely extending his hand to me.
‘… A category that allows you to do anything for your goal.’
The most dangerous evildoer.
After thinking, Zhugelin took a deep breath.
When you open your hand, the most optimal magic power is placed in the circuit according to the experience of dozens or hundreds of repetitions, and the magic formula is drawn.
Purple mana scatters like fog.
Soon it took shape and began to increase its intensity.
Pajijik-!
Then, a headless knight appears with purple eyes.
‘Composite’ working magic – Dullahan.
A secret technique that can be used only when two conflicting 5th rank magics are perfectly combined.
It didn’t end there.
The remaining magical power drew a new magic circle and opened up the space of the other world.
“Krrr!”
From there, a long, rainbow-colored weapon jumps out.
The original magic word that was passed down orally only in the Zhuge family was ‘Wei Yulong’.
“… Is it rejection? “I’m really sorry.”
The man watching exclaimed in admiration and sighed at the same time.
Jegalin quickly lowers his hand.
In line with this, the two minions also rushed at him like lightning.
*
1 Minute.
It took a total of 1 minute.
“…… “
Zegalin stared blankly ahead.
It was an instant.
The time it took for his minion to be torn to pieces and lying at the man’s feet.
The man carefully shook off the blade.
Bizarre, like a saw blade.
He walked toward himself, touching the tip of his sword.
“… I repeat.”
Lift the blade.
“I’m so sorry.”
From Noble mtl dot com
The moment I was swinging like lightning.
Jiaang-!
“…… !”
“…… !”
With the noise of space being cut away, the man’s wrist is suddenly consumed by the darkness and disappears.
Tuk-Dengrang!
The sword tumbles towards the ground.
And…
-!!!!!!-
Before the man could even react, dozens of magic bullets cut into the space, carving out numerous air holes.
A man who has spilled a large amount of blood is lying on the ground.
It looks like he’s dead.
Zegalin swallowed in vain at the vast vitality writhing in his body.
It is regenerating rapidly.
Can that be called regeneration?
The man’s body returns, as if it is being restored to its original state.
At the moment I was at a loss as to what to do.
Jegalin became aware of a hand grabbing his shoulder.
“… Runes?”
She looked at her silently and smiled.
The warmth in your eyes.
And even determination.
“I was truly happy to be able to serve you all this time.”
“Now, just a moment!”
Zegalin realized what she was trying to do and shouted at her.
“I’m sure you can do it, young lady.”
Before I could stop him, Jegalin’s body crackled and disappeared.
“… Phew.”
Rune, who had used all of her remaining magical power to send only the young lady, slowly raised her head.
There, a man who had finished playing was quietly watching.
