91. I know because I’ve been through it
Boo Woo Woo!
I put my foot on his spine.
He pulled his arms vigorously.
Then, I heard a sharp tearing sound.
“aaagh!”
Petriel’s screams also burst out.
And Diaz, Andrew, Grendel, and Orhel, who were watching the scene from the first row, involuntarily opened their mouths.
but.
Where can you see the famous scene of an angel tearing off its wings?
in real time too.
As a finishing touch, I pushed Petriel’s back hard with my foot.
puck! Kudang-dang-dang-tang!
Petriel rolled on the floor with only four wings still intact.
No, in fact, it was just a return to its original form.
He was like this just a few hours ago.
However, it seemed that he himself did not like his current appearance very much.
“My, my beautiful wings…! My wings aaa!”
Petriel’s eyes glisten and emit light.
In a sudden burst of power, the four people holding him were thrown away at the same time.
“Keugh!”
“Ahhhh?”
“Oh, my fingernails!”
“Hey, my psychokinesis is gone…!”
Only me with my legs fixed on the floor.
It stood like a huge tree.
“How dare you rip off my wings? I’ll tear you limb from limb as punishment!”
I fact-checked him.
“Your wings? That’s absurd. What are your wings?”
“These are my wings! The opportunity God gave me! The wings God gave me!”
“You keep talking about God, God, God. I don’t know what God is thinking. Instead, I’ll be wildly innovative and transform you into an angel without wings. Asshole.”
“A lowly human subject! Are you trying to trick me with that cunning tongue now!”
“You notice it quickly.”
“This is nohhhh!
Petriel salivated and rushed in a straight line.
A very sloppy attack.
When there was reason, it was as heavy as Drettnor.
It was because he had that much speed and power and even calmed down.
Perhaps because of that, the pattern was a little different from what I knew.
But what about now when you lose your temper and run?
‘Even if I close my eyes, I can see it clearly.’
The pattern was the same as shown in the original.
It moves according to the pattern you know, but what is it that scares you?
For the deceased, this was literally lying down and eating rice cakes or porridge.
Of course, it didn’t seem like it was the case.
“Ro, Lord Rohan! Here we go again!”
“Brother! Open up your distance!”
“Wow, what are you doing?”
“Rohan Niyim!”
well, it can be
From their point of view now, Petriel would only be seen running rampant at random.
However, the Petriel I saw was a little different.
‘Here, the left arm first.’
Booung!
‘And the bottom.’
Shaak!
‘Followed by a sword attack and a cross cut.’
Chew! Shuung! Wow!
To me, who is not much different from looking into the future.
There was no way these attacks would work.
It was even slower and weaker than the speed and destructive power seen in the original.
I also drew the sword together, and then Petriel’s sword flew in succession.
Awesome! Awesome!
cut cleanly
Seeing the scene, Andrew smiled.
“Wow, that. I know it well because I’ve been through it.”
* * *
Chew!
My last sword shot surged upward from the bottom.
and.
squeak.
Along with the tearing of space, Petriel’s last wing fell from top to bottom.
A truly staggering disparity.
Until the second wing was cut off, Petriel hadn’t acknowledged it.
“I was just caught off guard!”
Even if everyone else knows.
The moment the third wing flies.
“I-I can’t do this… Humans are stronger than me? I’m weaker than humans?…”
The moment you lose your will.
It wasn’t long before the fourth wing flew off.
dump.
Petriel’s knees knelt down.
He looked up at me.
lower than the floor.
Petriel smiled dejectedly.
“You promised to boil me down to the floor, then you ripped off my wings with your hands. Have you ever seen such a stupid case…”
“Because I’m careful to keep my promises.”
“You… are not human.”
“Well. As you can see, I don’t have wings?”
“Whoa, whoa. Do you think an ordinary human can tear off an angel’s wings?”
“Let’s see if that’s possible.”
“no.”
Unexpectedly, Petriel answered sternly without hesitation.
I couldn’t easily refute him either.
He knelt down and narrowed his eyes.
“Humans and angels are beings from different realms. Do you think it’s that simple to pluck off the wings, which are the symbol of heaven, or the horns, which are the symbol of hell?”
“What is that…”
“Let me say it again. If you and I are from different worlds, it’s impossible.”
“……”
“Is he really a ‘god’? Or is he a being from another world who can’t be bound by the rules of this world…”
discipline?
I do not know.
Obviously, I wasn’t originally from this world.
However, the current body was definitely originally from this world.
Didn’t Creighton and Ledeia, the witch, say that they had encountered this body in the past?
I still don’t know exactly what happened.
Petriel threw a question at me again.
“You bastard… Where the hell did you come from as a monster?”
“I do not know either.”
“A monster who doesn’t even know what kind of existence he is. It’s a pity that he has to die like this. If I…”
He must have lost a lot of energy, so he lowered his head and continued to speak, forcing his voice to shrink.
“If I… had a different mindset, if I hadn’t become enemies with you… would my future have changed?”
Is it because it’s about to die?
A weak sound came out of his mouth for the first time.
“It would have been.”
“You answer too easily.”
“Because I’ve already changed the futures of several people.”
“The future…do you know?”
“The near future.”
Petriel raised her head.
“Seeing the future, all attacks are nullified… It’s like fighting a god.”
That wouldn’t be wrong at all.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that only those who knew the pattern as enemies in the original work could see the future.
Petriel smiled bitterly and asked.
“Did the future me you know die to you at that time too?”
“Even if it’s not me, you’ll die eventually. It’s because you became intoxicated with Gauriel’s wings and started slaughter.”
“Are you destined to die in the end? Even if it’s a great cause, if it’s something that requires death… If I can’t accomplish that, I’ll just become a villain. The me you know, must be evil.”
“……”
Although I did not answer verbally.
That itself was already the answer.
“Whoops. Now that I’m in a position where I’m about to die, I still want to change at least one future.”
With a detached expression, Petriel’s eyes stared at me.
I could feel my focus getting blurry.
I could see that he was having a hard time even finding me properly.
“The monster of Morzadon. He is also looking for Gauriel’s wings. Of course you know that much, right?”
I nodded.
“Know.”
“The monster of Morzadon is a monster that evolves by eating angels and shedding its skin. Why would that monster seek Gauriel’s wings?”
“Wasn’t that what you were trying to fill your stomach with?”
“Growing with Gauriel’s wings as nourishment? No. It’s not.”
“What?”
At my question, Petriel coughed and coughed out the last words.
“He was born from the fury of the giants. Cool, cool! That’s why he eats our angels, God’s creations, and grows in size. Cool! Whoa… But the monster of Morzadon is such a simple-minded guy. not.”
“You mean you have another ulterior motive?”
He nodded.
“The wings of the archangels of the highest rank contain different powers for each pair of wings. Unlike the wings of higher and lower angels, all powers are combined and latent. The wings that were here right now are the wings of divine power. The reason I was here was because what I needed most was divine power. And the monster of Morzadon knew the secret. What he was aiming for was the wings of inclusive power.”
“Tolerance?……”
“Since Gauriel has fallen from a transcendent being to a fallen one. The biggest loss to him must have been the loss of the wings of tolerance.
“What power do those wings hold?”
“The spirit king of the middle world. It contains a contract with them. With those wings, you can forcibly use the energy of the spirit kings who are sealed without permission! That’s what he was aiming for.”
“……!”
To be able to use the power of the Spirit King…
Did he even have that ability?
Then just how much of a monster was the perfect Gauriel?
I had no imagination.
“The highest hierarchy of archangels have contracts with the Spirit Kings of different attributes. Gauriel is the holy flame that burns everything. He was connected to the Fire Spirit King.”
“The Fire Spirit King…”
That power that endured even the flames of hell, must have originated there.
Of course, at the time of the original work, it had lost most of its power, and although it endured, it was fatally wounded.
“To prevent the Monster of Morzadon from having the Wings of Embrace, you must first kill Arachne. Through her, the Monster of Morzadon is gathering information.”
“There was something like that.”
“How is it? Has the future changed?”
In the future of the original work, the monster of Morzadon had not obtained the wings of tolerance.
It probably didn’t appear in the original story, but it was probably because Petriel killed Arachne.
However, the future would have definitely changed.
Petriel dies here.
If I don’t kill Arachne, which he should have killed…
The monster of Morzadon would have obtained the wings of tolerance in the end.
I had to admit.
“I guess it has changed.”
“Hahaha. It’s fortunate. It’s unfair that I died like this… but I don’t really like the fact that the monster got Gauriel’s wings. I’m hiding it. This is all I know. Whoa… I’m getting sleepy now.”
Petriel lowered her head.
“Humans are always swayed by greed and fall for the devil’s tricks. But isn’t it strange? I don’t think you are.”
The voice gradually faded away.
“If all humans were like you…I might not have become like this. Whoops. Even this is blaming others…Anyway, I’m a fool to the end. A guy like me. …..”
that was the last
Petriel’s voice.
He slowly closed his eyes and went to sleep.
* * *
“Oh, it’s the waist.”
“Ugh…”
“Rohan-nim! Are you okay?”
“Sir Rohan!”
The four that flew away because of Petriel’s power explosion.
I barely managed to get myself together and came back.
At some point, Orhel became her usual self.
As he said, after pouring all his strength into it, it seemed to be back to normal.
Orhel and Andrew knelt down to examine the dead Petriel.
“By the way. Truly tearing off the wings with your hands. My brother is not kidding, uh huh.”
Orhel trembled once.
“It’s crazy, it’s crazy. I really did it… It’s crazy!”
Next to him, Andrew chimed in again and stuck out his tongue.
Meanwhile, Diaz and Grendel came to my side and watched over me.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“That angel guy. He ran wild…”
I shook my head.
Diaz gave a small smile.
“No problem.”
“Fortunately, the.”
Grendel gave a thumbs up.
“It was amazing! To see such an easy victory against such a monstrous angel. Seeing them cut off their wings made me want to eat chicken wings!”
“……”
Looking at that, why chicken wings…?
Anyway.
Grendel’s 4th dimension was properly 4th dimensional.
Did Diaz feel that too?
Even though he clearly heard the words, he pretended not to hear and skipped the words.
“By the way…what were you talking about?”
“Petriel?”
“Yes.”
“He told me where to go next.”
“Next… you mean?”
After saying that, Orhel also crept up.
“Next? Where are you going?”
“Goulun Cave.”
“What? Goulun cave? What’s there?”
“They say there is Arachne.”
“…Oh, crazy? Arachne…isn’t it a monster with the upper half of a human and the lower half of a spider?”
“right.”
Morzadon’s monster must be moving first.
As in the original history, the only way to stop it from having the wings of tolerance was to hit Arachne first.
“I’ll leave immediately.”
“Yes, Lord Rohan!”
“I’ll prepare right away, Sir.”
“My back is still sore…”
“Are you going again? Where are you going? I have to tell you too!”
so we
Without a chance to rest, we decided to move towards the Goulun Cave again.
‘Ah, before that.’
After taking the wings of Gauriel’s divine power.
I walked towards Gauriel’s wing, which I ripped off first.
It was surprisingly transformed into the shape of a tiny feather.
I was able to find out in an instant.
It was to the point where I could see a tremendous amount of divine power flowing through my third eye.
I reached out and grabbed the feather.
Whoaaagh!
A tremendous amount of divine power penetrated his entire body.
