Chapter 436 – Thirst (4)
“Did you come first?”
“Who are you!”
“Evil! The devil has appeared!”
As soon as Artie hit the ground, there was another commotion. His eyes were full of fear for Arty, who spread his huge wings wide like an eagle. Ash, who was watching the situation while drinking tea in the barracks, drew a magic circle with his hand and cast a simple recognition obstruction spell. The soldiers, who had been glaring at Artie as if they were going to kill them a moment ago, stared blankly into the air for a moment, then went back to their work.
“I didn’t know you would arrive first. Wasn’t it the most negative?”
Artie’s tone was intended to make fun of her. Ash said, blushing at her words and avoiding her gaze at her.
“I now have a reason to go out… Just because.”
She still felt awkward dealing with Artie. A dragon he hadn’t seen face to face in thousands of years was all the more so because he called himself a friend. She seemed unwilling to change the name she calls herself, Mimir.
“That is very fortunate. Mimir.”
“I am Ash. Omelas Ash.”
“Do you want me to call you Mimir?”
Ash glared at Artie, but Artie smiled broadly without changing her expression her. When she saw her laugh at her, it was hard for her to get angry. Ash let out a deep sigh and drank all of her water her. When she looked around, everything was new.
“Once upon a time, the capital was not such a large city. The world has changed so much. It’s so different from the world I knew. I thought I had been at the bottom of Ashildern for so long.”
“Did you live with too much loss?”
“Yes.”
Ash refilled her water once more. Her driver acted as if it was only natural to hand her her water her. Ash said as she drank the water.
She said, “You said earlier that the certificate form changed 300 years ago, and as soon as she heard that, 300 years? How long has it been? Did you think of this first? I think I’m going crazy because I’m unfamiliar with it now. I feel so bad. Where are the other demons from the demon realm? I want to see your face soon.”
“You were a little timid when we first met, but you became very talkative?”
“No one notices anymore.”
Ash said so. Artie thought that she was becoming more and more like Mimir’s personality. Although she was not aware of herself. Of course, she knew Ash would be angry if she brought this up, so she decided to just keep her mouth shut.
“So, when are the other kids coming? When will Lucius come again?”
“I will be back soon.”
Artie felt like she was her immature little sister her looking for Lucius. Artie reached out to stroke her hair her and she managed to hold back her desire her and perched on her desk her. The desk was packed with various materials about the gates of the demon realm, but these materials had nothing to do with it anymore. She felt a little sorry for her researcher, who had been working all night, and Artie rubbed her finger over the area where the ink hadn’t yet dried.
“Oh, sorry.”
Ash shook her head in a tone that conveyed the exhaustion of her researcher. The corners of her mouth her lingered in pity for her researcher, who would later find this document and be frustrated. Artie grumbled as she looked at the hem of her dress.
“It’s got ink on it. I came dressed in pretty clothes.”
“So, when the hell…”
After waiting for a beat, Ash opened her mouth again. I could feel her magical energy near her, but it was because her face wasn’t shining at all. Even though Artie gave the ‘prize’ to float by magic, Ash wanted to meet her face to face with them.
Bang!
And, as if waiting for her words of her, an intense sound of magical power could be heard from the outskirts of the ruins. Artie shook her head as she brushed her own face.
“Oh, it’s Dagon.”
“Did you send it as it is?”
“I made my own human makeup. But, I guess it wasn’t convincing.”
The knights began to gather around the outskirts with a murmur. Ash and Artie stood up and clicked their tongues. At the end of the ruins, where they could see at a glance, Dagon was already holding several knights wrapped around him with his tentacles. There was not a single wound on Dagon’s body her, but the broken weapons around her were full.
The soldier holding the bow trembled and looked at the commander. The commander was also trembling and shouting at the soldiers.
“Support! Ask for support! Catch that monster right away…!”
[It is not a monster.]
“Now, stop.”
Artie whispered as she wrapped her arms around the commander’s neck. Artie’s voice spread like an echo in a cave. Dagon looked at her ash her and tilted her head. It was because she had a slightly different atmosphere from the Mimir she knew. Ash knew what Dagon’s reaction meant, but she just chose not to explain.
“This lady here is Dagon, and she’s here to help us. Got it? Tell them that you are canceling your support request. Everyone go and have some tea.”
As soon as Artie finished speaking, the soldiers who were standing fiercely holding her weapons lowered their weapons in unison and began to stumble. Like zombies, they threw down their weapons and scattered towards their homes. Dagon looked at the backs of the disappearing people and frowned. When the knights clutched in the tentacles dropped to the floor, they crawled away, gasping for breath.
“So, now only Lucius and Theoter are left?”
[It seems to be like that.]
Dagon turned her head in the direction where she could feel Terr’s energy in her.
*****
“No, what kind of oni are caught in the capital?”
“But I didn’t have any ID.”
“You can just climb over the wall. You can do it.”
“Then, I thought you would be in trouble… Was that too much?”
“No. Well done.”
I hugged Theoter once. My wives were looking at Theoter with curious faces. It was fortunate that I ran into the South Gate guard on the way. It was because if he had done something wrong, it was clear that Theoter would have smashed the guard post and left. She was smiling awkwardly as she held her initiation ceremony in front of the other wives.
Elsie and Laika both smelled the same, complaining that it smelled similar to mine. Do these guys know that I have marked the territory for Theoter and Artie?
The road to the ruins was originally blocked by control, but strangely, no one stopped us while we were going. The soldiers and knights walking away, drooling like zombies, seemed unwilling to stop us from going to the ruins.
Thanks to this, Artie, Dagon, and Ash were sitting on chairs in the plain, where they climbed smoothly without any procedures. Ash sat with her chin on her chin and stared at me, then her face her blushed, and Artie shook her hand as soon as she saw me.
Dagon suddenly dug into the ground to hide, then wrapped his tentacles around my horse and arms and hugged me tightly. Eve reflexively drew her sword at the tentacle that suddenly appeared, so I had to stop it.
“What the fuck!”
“Eve. It’s madam ma’am. My wife. Calm down.”
“…This, this woman is that… Is it? She lived in the western cave.”
Eve glanced at Dagon and shook his head. She gave me a thumbs up and let out a deep sigh. The only people who had ever seen Dagon here were Eve and Elsie. Elsie didn’t understand when she said ‘Dagon’ and bruised Eve.
“Mermaid. You shouldn’t look bad for having a lot of legs.”
“No, not that. That… Not. What a bad bitch I am.”
Eve tried to somehow explain the situation to Elsie, but she gave up. Theoter carefully removed Dagon’s tentacles from my body and said.
“Lucius. Are you ready?”
“Absolutely.”
I showed myself by flicking the holy sword on my back. With this holy sword, even if Evangeline was a bitch, she could send her to the underworld. If you stabbed him in the back, it was one shot, and if he stabbed you in the front, you could settle the matter within today. Because everything will happen under a fair ‘match’.
As soon as I arrived, Artie started drawing a magic circle. Ash crossed her fingers and drew a straight line as if she were drawing her magic circle her. Dagon’s tentacles stretched out in all directions, forming a huge circle. Theoter hit the floor lightly with his bat, and the circle created by Dagon rose slightly.
Theoter made the wives who were still gathered in the magic circle step back a bit. Since the door had not yet been opened, I looked at the wives one by one. Sieri, Elsie, Leica, Soya, Sellu and Eve. They were all my lovely wives. I didn’t want to exchange anything for anything in this world, and they were the people who loved me that much.
I reached out over the magic circle and hugged them tightly once in a while.
“It’s done!”
I heard Ash’s urgent voice of his. After hugging Eve for the last time, I tried to turn around, but Eve wouldn’t let me go. She wrapped her arms around my neck, kissed her lips her, and smiled.
“Groom. Because i’ll wait Should I come soon?”
“Of course. Where do I leave you?”
Everyone was waving. They were looking a little higher than they were seeing me. I turned my head and looked at the door. The door to the demon realm was wide open. It was absorbing the magic of the demons and emitting a black aura.
However, in contrast to that, there was only a pure white space beyond the door. Artie, Theoter, and Dagon all took their seats one by one and sat with their eyes closed. Ashman opened her eyes slightly and spoke to me.
“Go in quickly. And come back soon.”
At the same time, the door started to shake. I turned my head to say hello once more, then jumped through the door as hard as I could.
*****
I was falling down the pure white space where there was nothing. It reminded me of Alice in Wonderland. Alice, who was chasing the rabbit, couldn’t fall, so she wondered how long she would fall.
I also pulled out the Holy Sword and was wondering how long it would last. Will it hurt if I fall to the floor? Was it Evangeline’s trick to let her fall like this?
He put strength on his legs with a tense face. At that moment, the soft texture slipped on my feet his. I almost fell for a moment, but I managed to keep my balance and look straight ahead.
There was a huge vertical gap in front of my eyes. Some strange shapes were wriggling beyond the pitch-black cracks. And she was in front of him.
Ebony black hair and bright purple eyes. She, looking straight at me, in a neat gothic dress. I shouted as I waved my sword in the air.
“Come on! Fuck mother whore!”
At the same time she laughed and cried.
“Brother!”
“What?”
“Brother?”
He’s a tai chi master this year.
