Episode 179. Escape From the Spirit World Number One (8)
Episode 179 Escape from the spirit world number one (8)
The reason Paya has not been able to learn necromancy even after seeing Malak’s ‘zombie control’ until now is because that ability was a blessing, or the power of God, outside the realm of magic.
Power is not something that is learned; it is something that comes naturally. It’s like a superpower. So there is no way that others can learn it even if they see it.
Of course, Malak did not have the ‘zombie control’ blessing from the beginning. She only learned it thanks to the goddess’ strange ability called ‘skill’, but Paya couldn’t have known that.
Charon’s necromancy is different from authority (skill). There are clear principles and techniques. Although the achievement was beyond the reach of ordinary mortals, the foundation of her magic was not very difficult.
In any case, it was from Paya’s perspective
When the concept of ‘Spiritual Art’ was forced into her mind by Malak’s blessing her, she got the hang of it in a matter of hours and turned Tunteun into a spirit. It was easy to understand the principles of necromancy.
‘…No. Taboos are taboos for a reason. Malak may be disappointed. Even if you use necromancy, you must obtain permission from Malak.’
Paya, barely able to suppress the shaman’s curiosity that rivaled that of a scientist, stood up.
“It’s nothing. “I have a quick question.”
“I see.”
Luna nodded her head.
“How is Grandpa Harry? How are you?”
Paya suddenly became curious and asked.
During the all-out war, Harry controlled the colossus and defeated more than six high-ranking demons. At that time, he got off the colossus with a dying sound, perhaps because he was too passionate.
After that day, Harry stayed at home and recovered.
“Yes, do your best. You’re just being lazy. If you say you’re fully healed, you’re pretending to be sick because you’re afraid you’ll be asked to repair the ballista or catapult. Oh, can’t I go somewhere and say it?”
Luna and Paya chuckled.
“What are you doing, Warchief Kanto? “I heard you didn’t come out of the barracks.”
“Oh, Warchief Kanto?”
I was trying to say ‘Oppa’ but it was Paya. He is the chief and priest before his brother and sister. I had to maintain formality in front of others.
Luna had a closer relationship than ‘others’, but when she made an exception, mistakes were bound to happen. Paya didn’t call Kanto by the title “Brother” Because he wasn’t confident that he wouldn’t make a mistake yet.
“I spar every day to prevent rust and comfort the warriors. “He is a strong person who relies on everyone.”
Luna recalled Kanto smiling brightly. Even though she went through that hellish war at the forefront, she still has the same spirit as everyone else.
Luna’s heart still flutters when she thinks about the seven high-ranking demons falling from the sky. Even when Charon opened the portal in the air earlier, her vision became dark and her breathing became heavier.
Perhaps Kanto is a truly strong person. Or maybe he’s a psychopath who can’t feel fear.
“Do you want to go and have some tea? “If I have time.”
Luna suggested conversation. There were few people in similar positions, and even fewer children the same age. She wanted to take this opportunity to talk and relax.
“Is that so?”
Paya was also disturbed. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to feel relaxed while chatting.
Late at night, inside a science facility. A barbarian girl and a civilized girl chatted while holding a cup that resembled a beaker.

When I was young, there was a game I really liked.
It’s a game called ‘Down Tales’, and for a game made by a single developer, its quality is outstanding and has been talked about by many gamers.
I really liked that game. So much so that I combined the name of the character there and the title of a fighting game character to create a nickname that I usually use.
When asked why I liked it, it was because of the attractive characters. There are characters who live in a completely different world and are not even human, but I fell in love with their charm.
“I wanted to see an ending where everyone was saved.”
There were three main endings to this work: normal, non-death, and annihilation.
A guy who was teased by his friends for being a Vulcan (controller with his feet his his his) was so immersed in the game that he spent several days playing the game in hopes of finding an ending where everyone could survive.
Is it an extension of that?
Now that I think about it, I realize that I worked really hard to save people in an unfamiliar world. What kind of mission did they have?
Because I am their god? Do you like being admired by these people? Because you want to manifest and wield great power?
Or is it because you can’t watch people suffering because of demons?
“That’s not the case again.”
I’m not that obliging, ambitious, just, or loyal to my desires. I’m not smart enough to think about the big picture.
I am good at self-objectification. I am an ordinary citizen who just wants to live a quiet, relaxed life and enjoy a healing life.
He is a person who is about a million light years away from gods and heroes. I just have a little better mental resilience than others.
“But why is that so?”
If you think about it carefully, the reason was simple. I just want to see them alive.
I may be fascinated by the indigenous people of this world who live steadfastly and uphold the values they believe in even in the face of the apocalypse.
Yes, the correct answer was ‘love’. Before I knew it, I had come to love them. It’s a completely platonic love… It is great love.
I spent my time and mental energy protecting the things I love.
“Oh fuck. “It’s so fucking cringy.”
Fuck it. As time passes, strange thoughts start to arise again. I stopped talking to myself and got up from the straw bed.
They say this is why the flow of unconsciousness is dangerous.
Let’s stretch.
“Ugh.”
The day seemed to be getting brighter. I have to leave. He came out of the tent and gathered believers.
“Are you going already? “You can stay a little longer.”
Mera, the leader of the Gaboun congregation, greeted me with her worried face. It looks like she’s having a hard time thinking about Charon.
Still, I healed in my own way while dazed.
“It’s okay. Thank you for the hospitality.”
The day has dawned, so we must leave quickly.
Even if Charon hadn’t come in person to declare war(?), She would have acted a little more leisurely, but this is an emergency.
“I can’t help it. May your path ahead be filled with Loa’s blessings.”
“May the Gaboon congregation be filled with Loa’s blessings.”
We roughly said our goodbyes and left the Gaboon congregation. There were no monster ladybugs that looked like Labak or Labab.
I went to the place where I collided with Labak.
“W-Where am I…?”
“Shall we go! I’m scared!”
“They said I have to wait here.”
The believers whose souls had been restored were scratching their heads.
“Mom! Mammajo! Mites!”
There were believers who seemed to have lost all their memories and showed signs of infantile regression. A furry man who looks good at stealing is rolling on the ground while sucking his finger.
“Ugh.”
I’m glad that person isn’t Denzo. I took care of them and set off on a trip again.
“From here, it is Udan’s territory.”
After walking for hours panting, Nike entered a huge cave. This entire cave is the territory of Udan.
“We have to get through this cave. “This is the shortcut.”
“Okay.”
It looks like he just slept in the cave for fear of being a bear.
“If you walk a little further, you will come to a village where the Udan congregation lives, so just ask for their understanding and pass by.”
He nodded his head at Nike’s words. Well, I guess it’s okay since there’s nothing wrong with Udan.
We arrived at a place where there was a village, but no one lived there.
There were many houses made of woven wood, but there was no sign of them being popular, as if they had all moved in together.
“What happened… “
Nike, embarrassed, moves around and looks around the village. I felt a sense of disconnection in this quiet space.
No, I found it.
“Nike. “Can’t you see that?”
“Yes?”
Nike turned her eyes in the direction I pointed.
“What do you have?”
Nike doesn’t seem to be visible.
He called other believers to watch, but no one saw what I was seeing.
“It is nothing. I felt like something was wrong, but it was because of my mood. Let’s go.”
I looked around and left the place. It’s a lie to say it’s my mood.
I saw a bear-shaped soul, presumed to be Udan, lying on the floor. The soul could neither move nor speak. It’s a ghost that only I can see.
The guy’s soul kept shaking.
“…”
What should I say? I feel like I have seen the conclusion of the battle that will take place.
After much thought, I made up my mind and left the realm of Udan.
You’d better not tell anyone about this.

“That’s it! Representative of Malak! “I have come to pay for my sins for daring to mock me, Tuga!”
A tall woman with a red face, probably so angry, and a group of warriors blocked our path.
“… Asha?”
Why are you here?
I felt sin climbing up my shoulders.
No, you must feel the guilt. You’re the bad bitch.
