Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 137

Episode 137

A few days ago, on the night of the closing of the Pantheon Council.

A knocking sound spread through the throne room of Taegwang, the royal palace.

“Your Holiness the Dragon God Belphegis has come to visit.”

“Come on in.”

The door opened slowly. A middle-aged man with a beard like elephant tusks walked in trotting.

It was a dragon god. He leaned against the doorframe and smoothed his mustache.

“Let’s hear a secret that we can share together.”

Iden pointed to the table.

“Sit down first.”

“You like to be made to sit down.”

“Quick, stop talking nonsense.”

“I won’t decline this time.”

The Dragon God sat down next to Aiden at the head table.

“Okay then. “What do you have to say to me?”

“I have some request.”

“Please. This body does not grant wishes without compensation. “Mangojijwa has been like that since ancient times.”

Iden nodded.

“Then it’s a deal. Put me in debt. “I will pay you back at any time.”

The dragon god laughed.

“Would you like to hear it first? “Tell me what you want.”

“You must mistake my incarnation for Saya’s original body.”

The dragon god said with a puzzled look.

“Did you have an incarnation?”

Iden stood up and walked over to the closet. When the door was opened, the inside was revealed.

A huge naked body. Another Iden stood there with his eyes closed.

The Dragon God let out a small exclamation.

“Oh, it must be the work of a human woman.”

“It’s called Sein.”

“Irregular. “Kadak has fooled the gods again.”

“That’s the way it is.”

“But you cannot fool the eyes of the Godhead. “In particular, the nine-tailed fox’s aura is unrivaled.”

Of course Saya would notice. It’s not Aiden’s main body, but an incarnation.

“So I need your help.”

Belphegis’ dragon speech magic was able to cover up some of the discrepancies, even if only for a moment.

The Dragon God stared at Aiden.

“I want to hear why. “How could the nine-tailed fox be mistaken?”

“It’s prohibited.”

The dragon god made a subtle expression. Then he snapped his fingers.

“Now tell me.”

“It is to awaken you to the Ten Tails.”

I was able to speak out. It seems that the person who put it all together was Yongshin. He just lifted the ban.

The culprit who caused Paladin to bleed out the other day was Belphegis.

The guy said it as if it was absurd.

“How do you know the existence of the Ten Tails?”

“That too is prohibited. “Someone higher than you must have hung it.”

I couldn’t say it was knowledge in the game.

The Dragon God had a thoughtful look on his face.

“Well, is it one of the ‘losses’?”

The gods of this world called a phenomenon that even they could not understand loss.

Iden opened his mouth.

“right. “Is it possible anyway?”

“It’s difficult, but not impossible. “I’m still only eight years old, so my energy level may not be perfect.”

“Gumi is just around the corner.”

The dragon god nodded.

“To summarize, the plan is to use your incarnation to bloom the remaining tails of the nine-tailed fox and then offer the fake heart.”

Then it becomes ten tails.

Iden took out the incarnation from the closet.

“Therefore, we must unconditionally believe that this is the main body. “The moment you realize it’s fake, the ten tails are gone.”

The ‘act’ itself of pulling out the heart and swallowing it was not important.

Killing the person you love the most with your own hands.

Such despair and frustration were the driving force behind my awakening.

The dragon god, who was lost in thought for a moment, opened his mouth.

“The Ten Tails are beings that go against the law of cause and effect. It is a monster so calamitous that it was unanimously banned by heaven. “Can you control it?”

“Saya went against her instincts and only looked at me. There is no need to even consider controllability.”

The dragon god let out a hum.

“Do you know what it means? A nine-tailed fox who loved only one man. Even that is already an exceptional case. “Since the creation of this world, there has not been a nine-tailed fox that has voluntarily ignored its instincts.”

Long ago, there was a god who imprisoned Ilmi and raised him.

The god threw a strong man into a narrow cage. The nine-tailed fox and the two men were locked in an iron cage and spent decades together.

The nine-tailed fox had no one to sleep with other than that man. It only contained one human being.

As time passed, the fox was reborn as Gumi. Absorb only his energy.

At that time, the god who imprisoned them reappeared. God made the nine-tailed fox kill a man.

The birth of the Ten Tails. Disaster has come to fruition.

It was one of the three great natural changes that shook the world.

The dragon god opened his mouth.

“But Saya chose you of her own accord. If she were to kill her lover with her own hands, she would be devastated. “We may no longer be the same as we were in the past.”

Iden shook his head.

“I know Saya better than you. “He may be shocked, but he won’t point his claws at me.”

“Then how are you going to make me rip out your heart in the first place?”

In any case, Saya will not be able to defeat Aiden.

“I need your help this time too.”

“······Are you planning on forcing it?”

“I guess it would be possible with your terms?”

“That’s cruel. Truly merciless. “I feel sorry for the nine-tailed fox.”

“I won’t deny it.”

The dragon god was silent for a while, then raised his upper body. Iden’s incarnation approached and opened its mouth.

“No matter what the outcome is, don’t blame me.”

“That won’t happen.”

“If something is hard, it sometimes breaks. “Your strong relationship will become toxic.”

“It’s not a mediocre robbery. “It can’t break.”

“There are always variables. “Just think about it.”

“I’ve already prepared, so just get started.”

“Okay, let’s take a look.”

A strangeness began to appear in the Dragon God’s eyes. At the same time, numerous calculations encroached on the incarnate body.

A proverb leaked out of his mouth. It was an unintelligible language.

The divine power of the eternal throne was driving human creation to a distant level.

Not even the slightest laxity was allowed. The incarnation literally became Aiden.

The dragon god murmured.

“This is not enough.”

On top of that, hallucination magic was added.

Then he looked at Aiden.

“Move on. Do you know how?”

“I just know the basics.”

Because it was my first time. Iden placed his hand on the incarnation. A trembling soul. Soon it flowed into a new body.

Aiden’s body collapsed.

The incarnate body glanced around its own body.

“Is it about 10%?”

“That is a masterpiece. It’s not human work. “I did improve it a little bit.”

Most of my spiritual abilities disappeared and more than half of my physical abilities disappeared. Only his stamina was at a similar level to Aiden. Because I didn’t want to get caught.

Yongshin said.

“The moment your heart is ripped out, your soul will disappear. It was designed that way. “If you’re going to cheat, you have to definitely cheat.”

Since the nine-tailed fox can see souls, such a response was essential.

“Is it enough?”

“Satisfies.”

“Don’t forget that it’s a transaction. “For now, let’s leave it as debt.”

Aiden nodded and left the office.

I headed straight to the bedroom.

*

“Ah Aiden?”

Iden was pointing to his heart.

Saya couldn’t accept it. Pull out his heart? It was simply impossible.

Aiden let out a calm voice.

“It is absolutely necessary. “Please.”

She stared at Iden with a stiff face. Then he suddenly laughed awkwardly.

“Ah, even Iden sometimes gets mistaken. “Just pulling out the heart won’t make it bloom.”

God does not die if he loses his heart.

“I have to kill the man I love the most with these hands. You probably didn’t know until now. right?”

Aiden didn’t answer. Saya asked again with a desperate look on her face.

“Answer me. You didn’t know, right? “There’s no way you could ask me like that.”

Iden shook his head.

“Saya, I know everything. “Break off this breath with your own hands.”

Saya stammered.

“lie. I hate pranks like this. “Stop it because it’s really not fun.”

Aiden was just calm.

“You must become the Ten Tails. “It’s not a joke, come on.”

“What’s the use of all that… No. Let’s quit.”

After saying that, Saya raised her upper body.

“You were a little strange today. To be honest, my physical condition was not very good. I guess I worked so hard that it even ruined my hair. “I’m going, so get some rest.”

I got off the bed and headed to the door.

“I’ll forget about today’s conversation. “I won’t mention it again…”

Before she could finish her sentence, her body began to harden like wax.

I couldn’t even move the tips of my fingers. Is it magic? It was difficult to even figure it out.

For Saya, this may be the first time she has ever felt helpless.

“What is this now?”

Saya slowly turned towards Aiden. It was not of his own will. The muscles and bones were moving as they pleased.

Like a puppet.

It walks with unnatural, stiff strides.

Aiden said.

“Have you changed your mind? “It must be a temptation that is hard to resist.”

Aiden’s words became a dagger and struck Saya.

“What are you talking about? “Iden, are you really crazy?”

“Words and actions do not match.”

Before I knew it, Saya was reaching out to Aiden’s chest.

He shouted like he was hemorrhaging blood.

“Oh no! “It’s not really!”

I couldn’t stop my hands. I was twitching and my eyes were red.

“Try something! Aiden, I really want this…”

Her nails made contact with Aiden’s skin. Tears and blood flowed down.

Iden felt heartbroken. Because it will leave a scar in Saya’s heart that will be difficult to wash away.

I just rationalized that there was nothing I could do.

The Ten Tails were absolutely necessary, and it would have been difficult to awaken them otherwise.

Sharp nails dig into Aiden’s chest.

Tears fell and became diluted with blood.

Saya sobbed.

“I hate poetry! no! Aiden, please get away!”

“Don’t go against your instincts.”

It was not an instinct, but a saying.

Suddenly, my sternum was crushed. A pure white hand penetrates my chest.

Blood burst out like a fountain and drenched Saya’s face. It was warm.

Reddish silver hair swayed from side to side.

She was crying and blowing and screaming.

Finally, I grabbed my heart. The pulse penetrated Saya’s entire body through her fingertips.

“Oh no…”

Immediately after that, there was a boom! Aiden’s heart exploded from the inside.

“sorry.”

With only those words left, Iden closed his eyes.

The power that controlled Saya also disappeared.

She trembled and her eyes turned blue. Soul Soul will remain. There was no way he would die like this. Even if it died, if it was captured before it went down to the lower world…

it was nowhere to be seen. Like Gangjeong, Aiden’s interior was empty.

Even though I used my senses and searched the castle, Iden was not there.

The sanctuary was quiet. As if nothing had happened.

Saya’s hair turned white. I couldn’t even think of anything rational. What should I do? My thoughts became solid.

······Is it a dream? When you deny reality and then suddenly realize it.

Saya’s divine form burned with silver light. I was being reborn as a being that went against the law of cause and effect.

The moment all the gods in the heavenly world detected the strange phenomenon, a tail classified as a heavenly phenomenon stretched out.

Unlike the rest, its fur was stained black.

The Ten Tails appeared. We must first find Uriel before it turns into a disaster. That saintess might have a way.

If it cannot be revived… Saya will lose her reason to live.

The moment I was about to throw myself towards the window, the door screeched open.

Iden was standing there.

“This will never happen again. “I promise.”

Saya froze as if time had stopped. The terrible despair melted like snow and flowed down into tears.

A sense of relief spread throughout my body. Her legs became weak and she sat down.

“······How?”

At that time, the Dragon God appeared behind Iden.

“It was a success. Congratulations.”

success? congrats? Other emotions began to fill the place where despair had left.

I wanted to believe it, but the terrible hypothesis continued to creep up from my subconscious.

Saya slowly opened her mouth.

“Isn’t it…?”

“sorry.”

She raised her upper body by supporting herself with a chair.

It stopped right in front of Aiden.

“Yeah, you wouldn’t do that to me. “My heart is truly broken…”

“I will never do this again.” First, bind your soul. “It’s more than ascending to heaven.”

Saya let out a laugh. At the same time! After slapping Aiden in the face, he ran out into the hallway.

Tears flowed.

Yongshin grinned and clapped his hands.

“It’s a surplus business. I gained a thousand soldiers and ten thousand horses with just one cheek. Congratulations again.”

Immediately after, the sound of the air being torn apart was heard. A black object flew from the hallway and exploded the Dragon God’s head.

It was a black tail.

The dragon god who lost his head fell down.

When Iden took the meditation stone, the dragon god’s soul was absorbed into the stone.

he shouted.

“Is this what you were preparing for?”

“The spark flew at you. sorry.”

“I knew for sure it would be like this! So, I will give you another body very soon from the Thought Stone’s arms…”

“Don’t be too angry, I’ve already made it.”

The dragon god stuck his tongue out at his shamelessness.

Aiden walked to the window and looked up at the night sky.

The moon, which had always left a space for Baekyang, was now shining red.

Atraksha was angry at his son’s atrocities.

Something sparkling in the sky flew through the window and landed in the bedroom.

Aiden went over and picked it up.
