209. Advice
An imminent situation.
There was not even a hint of hesitation in Deia’s eyes that were shooting viciously.
I felt like I was going to pull the trigger at any moment.
The Mule smiles and bites the person, then approaches as it is.
“I will admit the momentum. Seeing the overflow of emotions, it seems that the man is quite precious to you.”
“Can you just watch when your family is swearing at you?”
“Family. Hmm, do you really consider him family? That man who is nothing more than a stranger?”
“…… What?”
Mule’s question sharply stung the unintended part. Right now, he was referring to Kim Shin-woo, who exists inside Deius.
“I know. You cannot give up on your family. But we need to bear our sorrow for the cause.”
The devotees flocking around him once again put their hands together as if in prayer.
Deia and Findeneye felt uneasy at the appearance of worshiping not a god, but a gray-haired man in front of them.
“He is the one who will bring this continent to ruin. He is a man who defies the will of the gods and shatters the destiny they have foretold.”
“Just do it in moderation.”
The moment when Deia missed the timing to speak due to the strange pressure on Mule and his followers.
The Finden Ai, not paying attention to her surroundings, intervenes like an idiot and puts her ax on her shoulder.
“The master destroys the continent? I’m screaming and I’m sleepy This time, he was the one who caught and killed four great demons in the Republic of Clark.”
“… ….”
“You gave freedom to the cruel Republic, huh?”
I was a Finden child who hesitated for a while. There will be no Deus anyway. Pour out his honest heart.
“My hero, you bastard.”
“…… Heh.”
“Are you laughing? Split your head?”
Contrary to Deia, who only put some kind of pressure with threatening shots. Finden-Ai had no hesitation in cutting the man’s head with an axe.
Mule honestly apologizes in an attempt to soften it up a little, as if she noticed the momentum of Finden Eye.
“Sorry. But I think differently. Is it right to be called a hero for killing only the greatest demon?”
Only the Great Devil.
I wonder if the author named God that this man has behind him is so great.
Or is it simply slandering and belittling the devil from the concept of good and evil?
There was no way to know right away.
“Also, the Clark Republic shouldn’t collapse now. It just wasn’t the right time.”
“…… Isn’t it time?”
Even Finden Eye couldn’t stand it this time. Her feet were spurring the ground, and the ax that rested on her shoulder momentarily swelled with violent flesh.
Pushuuuuuk!
Her white smoke billows from the shoes she is wearing. It was a piece of equipment called Warshoes that he had obtained while destroying the Clark Republic.
When Dayus first saw Finden Eye, he mentioned that her items were lacking.
Blood Hand, Landing Machine, Bangobu.
This is a drop item of Finden Eye in the game, and equipment that maximizes her combat power.
The current Finden Eye was wearing two of the three gods.
In her hand is the hand of her blood ancestor, which Deus gave her, and her shoes are war shoes, which are compatible with the landing machine.
Only the most important weapon, the bangobu, is missing. Although Finden Eye was following the overbearing atmosphere of the boss in a similar chapter.
To put it bluntly.
Kwaaang!
I’m just following along.
The destructive power of the most important weapon was still lacking.
The ax hit the mule’s head accurately and went in, but he reached out and blocked Finden-Eye’s ax from the front.
The white light wrapped around the mule’s hand, and it felt as if the ax was snugly snatched.
Nevertheless, Findenai’s life was still strong.
“Did you see the blood that flowed in the Republic? Have you ever heard a scream? Where can I find the right time, damn it!”
Pushuuuuuk!
Smoke comes out of the Wash Shoes, and Finden Eye’s body rises into the air and rotates at the same time.
Pulling the ax back, I twisted my back and kicked her in the face.
But the result was the same.
This time, the white light floated in the shape of a goddess and blocked the feet of Finden Eye.
From the outside, it seemed like they were holding me warmly.
Sensing her direct touch, Nifinden Eye opened her eyes wide and jumped back behind her, activating her shoes.
“Some! If you fight now, it’s rather a composition that the other side likes!”
Deia shouted, saying that she understands her upset feelings, but she still needs to say something.
I was in a situation where I shouldn’t be making a big deal now, even in terms of politics or public opinion.
But, ignoring Deia’s cry, Findeneye stared at the mule and the white light.
“Is that God?”
Finden Ai sneakily checked her right foot and ax that had just touched the light.
The parts she touched were grotesquely distorted, as if they had been eaten by her worms.
When you look at her outwardly, she is dressed elegantly and elegantly.
The Finden child noticed that she had something quite disgusting in it.
Something strangely distorted, different from a demon.
“How dare you go to the memorial service!”
“Draw it out! Protect the spirit commander!”
“Let’s just kill it! We will act on behalf of God’s judgment!”
Seeing that the mule was attacked, the believers lit up their eyes and tried to attack the two.
“Stop.”
Mule reaches out to dry them.
“Because it is foolish. They must sincerely believe that Deus Verdi is a great being. We just need to show mercy and forgiveness to them. That is what God wants.”
“That sucks.”
She was the Finden child who boldly said that there was no need for that, but Mule continued her words with her smile still on her face.
From noble mtl dot com
“I know very well why you two came to see me. It must be to find Deus Verdi.”
“… ….”
“Go back to Lovern Academy. He is back.”
“What?”
“Come back?”
Deia and Finden Eye made faces of disbelief. Deius, who disappeared for a month, is back?
“I fought Archdemon Learic for a month, and he seems to have won quite surprisingly. The Nightmare War has collapsed.”
“Learic the Archdemon?”
“The Legend of the Dream?”
There were a few words that were difficult to pass by, but Mule gestured without explaining further.
His followers who surrounded Deia and Findenai slowly opened the way.
The straight road was urging the two women to go back.
“I’ll see you at the palace.”
She gritted her teeth, saying that the child of Finden is still not over at the obvious decree of the celebration.
Catching her arm, Deia shook her head.
If we continued to fight here, it would only damage the image of Deus. He realized that there was no point in physically killing a man named Mule.
‘I’d rather be a martyr.’
There is no more trouble than a dead hero. The public will boil like lava, using his name as an indulgence and motive.
It was necessary to break the image of the mule in the public mind.
It required a kind of social death.
With Deia and Finden Eye, it was impossible to say anything.
“Let’s step back.”
There is nothing better than this.
Besides, I wanted to confirm right away that Deius had returned.
Looking at the mule for a while, it seemed like Finden Eye felt the same way, but he let out a deep sigh.
Clap.
I folded the ax and made it into the shape of a single rod again.
“If the owner doesn’t exist, I will kill him.”
Of course, as she went, Fienden Ai turned her body around and followed Deia, giving her a temper tantrum.
* * *
Late night.
Sitting on a bench at Robern Academy, Arya was staring blankly at the sky.
As she looked at the round moon, she suddenly recalled the memory of the time she secretly brought and drank alcohol while watching the moon with her old friends.
Even though, it can’t even be called the old days.
In terms of time, it was third grade, so those days were in the future rather than now, or in the past.
I still feel regretful when I think of that time in this way. Still, I stopped living in the present while being swayed by the past.
‘Let’s try it with the kids.’
The friends back then are still friends now.
I didn’t think it would be bad to sneak out with the kids and try a little deviation after vacation.
‘Professor would hate it.’
If you are a student, behave like a student.
That was what Deus wanted. Also, when you saved yourself in the past, didn’t she ask you to experience something that can only be done now?
She wondered if a drinking party, which would become a matter of course as an adult, would be felt as a stimulating experience now.
‘Well, I’m just thinking about it.’
She says she wants to go on a trip, but doesn’t make any specific plans.
Aria doesn’t take the lead in preparing such a place even though she only said it in words.
“Haam.”
She yawned and thought that she should return to the dormitory soon. Now that Deius is back, her anxiety is gone, and she has been looking at the moon for the first time in a while.
“How are you?”
Yeah, I thought so.
A sweet voice from behind. Even Aria’s body instantly relaxed at her sweet voice, which seemed to announce that she was harmless.
Infuse mana right into her body to increase her distance.
A gray-haired man standing behind the bench Arya was sitting on.
Mule smiles and greets you. As there are thorns in a rose, Arya is wary because she does not feel any harm from the man.
But her mule bows her head rather deeply towards her.
“A great being who will save the continent God has chosen. It is an honor to finally be able to see you.”
“… ….”
“I’m really sorry that I couldn’t meet you in person because of the circumstances. But I have come to tell you something important.”
“…… Uh?”
“I know you are confused right now. But you must realize. The trick of a wicked man trying to extort the weight of fate that is on your shoulders!”
“You’re the kind of guy who goes around saying that you’re a real memorial serviceman.”
Standing behind the bench, he affirmed, still smiling.
“That’s right. And God sent you to help…… !”
Quaaaaang!
A ball of blue fire flew into the place where he stood and burned the surroundings mercilessly.
Smoke rising in the middle of the night.
Remnants of the blue flames were still burning the academy’s lawn, and the mule standing on it was also on fire.
“Great!”
His lower body, which had been hidden by the bench, is exposed. Something resembling a tree root or tentacle was embedded in the ground, and only the upper part was shaped like a human.
Aria realized what it means that her current body is not her body.
“The disgusting appearance of the god you serve is no different from the nightmare war.”
A sharp voice piercing the night air.
Mule frowns and glares at the man who is walking slowly.
“Deius Verdi.”
A completely different atmosphere from the one seen in front of Finden Eye, Deia, and other followers.
Mule’s fierce hostility was pouring down on Deius.
However, Deius is calm and stands in front of Arya, separating the two.
“What’s your business with my student?”
“Your student? What a great man! You are the one who is destined to save the continent!”
“Are you talking about your destiny as a hero?”
In fact, several absolute beings have already mentioned Arya’s fate.
In the case of Raeric, the general store told me to sell my destiny as a hero.
“Yes! He…… !”
“Stop.”
It was hard to listen to it anymore.
Deus clicked his tongue and said to Mule.
“If you are going to say trivial things like the word of God, get out of here. It’s hard to hear.”
“You know what…… !”
Since his god was insulted, Mule gritted his teeth and glared at Deius.
On the contrary, Deius gave him a bitter smile.
“He probably knows a lot more than you.”
For example.
“What are they hoping for at the end of the continent?”
“Are you saying you know what they mean, you dare in front of me?”
Daeus shook his head to answer Mule, who was spitting out words as if he were chewing on burning anger.
“I wouldn’t call them evil. I can assure you, I am not a very trustworthy being.”
I can’t explain why in detail.
This was advice given from the bottom of my heart, having seen the ending of this world several times already.
