Chapter 50
Episode 50
[Trying to grow a serpent into an adult? You’re using an obvious trick. Do you think we would accept that?]
[Yes. The Servant is the sentinel of the second door. It’s a world boss. A Revelator can handle that level of monsters?]
[He’s trying to make Pan his own.]
As soon as Yor finished speaking, the remaining Aspects in the shadows began to rebel.
[I’m too greedy. Just end it by giving one of the items in the bundle.]
[Okay. Among the items that can be purchased from the proxy clan, there are currently rare-grade tools, so it would not be a loss.]
However, Yor instead snorted at their words.
[why? Elixir of Growth is a consumable that is at best of Magic grade. And it’s not that great of a thing that can be purchased once the third door opens.]
He said, clenching his chin.
[After the third door opens, the night of summons will begin. Isn’t that right?]
[….]
[….]
At his words, the shadows said nothing more.
[Starting from the 3rd door, the Aspects can bestow grace on the survivors of the carnival one by one until the 10th door opens.]
The first grace was the Night of the Summoner of the Widow of Thorn Vine. Finding friends in Apocalypse was never easy.
It was not unusual for betrayal and betrayal to occur at any time for the sake of one’s survival.
In that sense, summoned beasts could not but be very attractive beings.
[But everyone knows, right? The fact that her revealer is a druid with the ability to control summoned animals.]
[What is that?]
[What is that? Widow. Even if you put an iron plate on your face, you have to put it down just enough.]
[Yor…!! Calling one’s true name must be prohibited by regulations, right? If it keeps coming out like this, it’s going to be troublesome!]
When the true name of the Thorn Vine Widow came out of Yor’s mouth, the rest of the Aspects burst out in bewilderment and anger.
[Discipline? You guys are telling me to call my name casually and do something stupid like that?]
[It’s because of what you did!!]
[That’s right.]
[Hmph… These guys only care about their own safety. Well, I guess that’s why they do things like this. On the surface, it is said to be a grace for those who have no companions, but in the end, it is to give powerful summons to one’s revealer, right?]
[Stop it, right?]
[There is no need to be angry. The same goes for the rest of the phases. It’s just a drive for their own revealer in the name of grace. So don’t forget. The final grace is me.]
The flickering shadow turned white and the figure of a woman appeared.
[…you. From what anyone can see, the plan is to hatch serpent eggs and turn them into adults. To give your Revelator a summon faster than my grace.]
Her eyes shone like emeralds and she wore a cloak made of vines tangled with a thousand different plants.
[I guess they’re trying to ruin the night I prepared for the summoned beast!]
[I guess they’re scared. You’re talking nonsense like that.]
[…What?]
[You think my Revelator, who isn’t even a Druid, can really hatch a Serpent’s egg, right? Have you forgotten what everyone said a moment ago? There’s no way it could hatch.]
[That….]
Suddenly,
the thorn vine widow’s face was distorted.
[There is a saying that is perfect for this situation. My revelator said that before.]
Yor said, looking at the widow.
[If you’re scared, just run away.]
* * *
“…Namgoong?”
Park Hyo-joo, who was inside the warehouse, identified the person who threw the egg and said with a smile on his face.
“You look like you’re about to die? “Are you two like this?”
Ryeojin looked at her and waved her little finger.
“Are you dating me and that person? “Stop talking nonsense and look ahead, right?”
“What do you think? Love blooms even during war. “It was during the uprising in Macau that I met him, right?”
“…Please shut up.”
Park Hyo-joo spoke as if she was growling at Ryeo-jin, but for some reason, Ryeo-jin smiled as if she was cute.
“I’m saying this as a senior in your life, but if you like it, grab it. Especially when the world has become like this, we need to love even more. “It’s already tough.”
“Just a little while ago, you casually said that you were going to kill those kids… but you’re saying that right now.”
“There is a difference between enemies and comrades.”
“comrade? You and me? A passing dog will laugh. The world really seems to be falling apart. “These gangsters dare to try to match the National Intelligence Service.”
Kwaang—!!!
Ryeojin’s answer could not be heard due to the commotion outside.
“Who is it?!”
The children looked at Namgung with a bewildered face as he walked soaked wet under the streetlights erected around the warehouse.
“I thought I was going to die… It was so fucking heavy. “If you guys have nothing else to do, how about helping me move it?”
Namgung sat down on the dock, looking exhausted, as he wringed out his dripping clothes.
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss—
Despite the cold night, white steam was rising from his shoulder as if he was feverish.
“you. If you have extra strength, why not help move it? “I didn’t notice it in the water, but it was really heavy.”
Cheolpudeok-!!
Namgung said as he tore off the seahorse internal strings that tied the eggs to the floor and threw them in front of them.
“Ah yes? yes yes?!”
The child in front of Namgung hurriedly shouted as he saw the intestines that had fallen at his feet.
Just-!!
“Aya!!”
His head was bent forward and Namgung could see Seongwoo getting hit on the back of the head.
“Hey, what are you doing? it’s crazy? How can I help that person? Fuck… can’t you see I just almost died??”
“I’m sorry…”
Seongwoo roughly pushed away the child who was rubbing the back of his head and walked in front of Namgung.
Seongwoo,
who spat right in front of Namgung, tapped him on the cheek and said.
“Hey man, can’t you see this?”
As I pulled up my pants, I saw scratches on the asphalt from when my bike fell a little while ago.
“….”
Namgung looked at it and sighed.
“That’s what you did. I almost died because of that. uh? How are you going to take responsibility?”
“I don’t think I almost died. You guys do that. “You look young, but do you have a license to ride?” As if Namgung was annoyed
,
he pushed Seongwoo forward as if pressing the top of his head and passed him by. The voice actor, whose center of gravity was concentrated, fell forward violently with his cheeks bent.
Quadang…!!
“Fuck you!! “What are we going to do now?”
He fell to the floor and stood up, shouting irritably. Anyone with experience would have been wary of Namgoong, who had passed over them so easily, but Seongwoo was not someone who had the ability to look into such things.
“hey!! Stop there!!”
A red aura bloomed from his body and instantly spread to the friends around him.
‘Look at this?’
At that moment, Namgung looked at the children surrounding them in surprise and smiled.
“You’re talking like a license. The world is full of monsters, so who cares about that? It’s a world where it’s okay to kill people. uh? Do you know what I mean? “You bastard.”
Buuuuung—!!
As soon as his order was given, the children in front swung their iron pipes.
Boom! humming!! Buuuuung!
Although it seemed to be swinging at random, the speed was by no means ordinary.
Kwasik…!!
Moreover, surprisingly, every time the iron pipe hit the ground, the asphalt floor crumbled.
It could not be said to be human power.
And it was the same for the rest of the children.
‘To the point where the floor breaks? ‘What kind of ability is that?’
Park Hyo-joo, who was watching them inside the warehouse, couldn’t help but be surprised to see the children running wild.
“It’s not an ability that a neighborhood gangster can attain. Now that I see it, it looks like he’s at the level of an alley leader? you.”
Namgung chuckled in surprise as he looked at the voice actor emitting the darkest aura.
Military deification.
It was a range-type quality like Jeon Tae-ho, which increased the rune acquisition rate around him.
It was a power that strengthened the physical abilities of those around the caster.
‘It is also called the quality of a monarch. It’s a quality possessed by quite capable clan and alliance leaders… I never thought I’d see this here.’
It was a very rare ability along with magical power.
Namgung looked at Seongwoo with interesting eyes.
“Hey man. When you say something nice, just give what you have and go. “It’s no joke if the voice actor gets angry.”
The child who had been trying to follow Namgung’s words in confusion a moment ago spoke to him with a slightly trembling expression while holding a pipe.
“Oh yeah?”
Namgung slightly tweaked the child’s nose.
“Aya!!!”
Let’s break the trembling child’s nose a little more. Crack! My nose bone broke with a sound.
“so?”
“Ahh! my nose!! Argh!!”
I pushed the child, who was lying on the floor in pain, with my foot and looked ahead.
Wow-!!
Namgung’s fist got stuck in the other child’s side while dodging the flying wooden block.
“…Ouch!!”
Thick mucus mixed with saliva and blood flowed from the child’s mouth after being hit by his fist.
“No matter how strengthened his body is…”
Two people rushed behind him as he collapsed on the floor like a shrimp.
“…die!!!”
They swung the jackknife with all their might, wondering where they got it from, but with their sloppy skills, there was no way they could hit him no matter how fast they were.
Boom-!!
As Namgung slowly stepped forward while avoiding the knife, the child was unable to overcome his own strength and fell to the ground.
Wow-!!
As I lifted up the back of the guy who had fallen on the floor, the guy who was about to stab me with the knife hurriedly withdrew his hand and bumped into him.
“Just because it hurts doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.”
Namgung twisted his wrist, snatched the knife, and stabbed the two men one by one into their thighs.
“Ahh! “Aaaah!!”
“Save me…!!”
The two people who had been stabbed with the knife rolled around on the floor as if they were about to die at any moment.
“What is it? “That guy.”
“You’re a complete monster, right?”
“Seo… voice actor… what should I do?”
They were children, no more than high school students at most. Just one or two people falling out was enough to kill their spirit.
“What should I do? What should I do?!” There’s only one bastard! “How many pages do we have? Why are you scared of one guy?”
“Right. “Are there not enough pages?”
Wow…!!
At that moment, black smoke dispersed from beneath Namgung’s feet.
“Huh huh?!”
“Ahh!”
“Aaaahhh…!!”
At the same time, screams can be heard from all over the place. Spirit soldiers suddenly appeared, pointing swords at their necks.
Kwasik!!!
As, who was twice as big as the children, grabbed the back of one’s head and pressed it to the floor.
“Oops!!”
Buuuuung-!!!
“stop.”
As soon as Namgung’s command was given, As’s ax stopped just before it barely touched the fallen child’s neck.
Grumble….
The moment I saw the huge blade stopped in front of me, the jeans I was wearing became damp.
“I think the page numbers are roughly aligned now?”
At Namgung’s words, everyone’s attention was focused on the voice actor.
“What the fuck…!!”
In response to his provocation, Seongwoo ran as fast as he could with his limping legs and jumped up to Namgung.
Da da da da da da…!!
The distance between the two narrowed in an instant.
Boom-!!
The voice actor threw a fist.
He seemed to have learned boxing, and his posture was different from other children.
“I lost it. you!!”
However, Namgoong took steps at his own pace and lightly deflected the punch with his palm.
“Is that possible?”
“This is crazy…”
The remaining children watched in fascination as the two fought, forgetting about the blade that was almost touching their necks.
widely…!! Crack…!
The moment Seongwoo’s fist passed over Namgoong’s head, Namgoong lifted Seongwoo’s fist up with his palm.
“…?!”
Both arms were stretched out in shock, as if shouting for national independence.
“ah.”
The face darkened for a moment and the single word came out like a sigh.
Poop–!!!
Namgoong’s fist hit Seongwoo’s ribs. In an instant, his back was bent.
“Kukkeokkeok!!”
With an expression of disbelief, Seongwoo fell to the floor, clutching his side.
“Look at this guy. You can write not only military mythology, but also the next level, war mythology, right? “I’m sure it’s because he’s a child…he learns quickly even without anyone teaching him.”
Unlike the voice actor who frowned arrogantly, Namgung looked at him with a smile.
If military mythology strengthens the abilities of people around the caster, telekinesis was the power to strengthen the caster by reabsorbing the strengthened power.
“It’s sturdy.”
Namgung looked down at the voice actor and muttered in a low voice.
“He would be perfect as a porter.”
