98 .
Aiden gripped his protruding lips with one hand. This was to prevent them from opening their mouths.
Then I looked back at the group. Euron, Daryl and San Gielan. As everyone covered their ears, Aiden finally relaxed his grip.
Gu Xian sighed and spoke in a trembling voice.
“Yes, how did you know about the dedication ceremony?”
It was simple. Because I have experienced the original.
Among the works, the route starts with the Demonic Church, not the Church. When choosing the Dark Priest, it also deals with Peter Sarkin’s dedication ceremony.
I haven’t experienced it myself, but the information is quite crisp.
Right after that, Aiden clenched his fists tightly. Then I slashed the guy’s mouth down. Quadruped! Teeth smashed and lips chapped. A painful moan broke out.
Aiden said in a menacing voice.
“I’m the only one who asks questions, you worm.”
Aside from the seeker of destruction, Guxian itself was disgusting. In the four years I lived in this world, it was the first time I had ever seen a demon that bothered me like this.
It was different from the enemies that had been slaughtered so far. Gu Xian always left with a bad aftertaste and aftertaste.
Same this time. This cunning devil left one heart in the center of the demon realm. In a word, even if Aiden bursts all seven hearts right here, Gu Xian will not die.
Only the soul will remain and wander the continent. Of course, he couldn’t return to the Demonic Realm. Because there was a barrier in the way.
Almost crippled, but still irritable.
His face began to regenerate again. Aiden didn’t wait and slammed his heart into the stone. I pushed and shredded it.
Black blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
Puck, puck, puck, puck, puck. After dozens of more shots, Iden stopped. said in a low voice.
“Your life is hell from now on.”
yeah, it worked out better If all of his hearts had been gathered here, Iden might not have been able to hold back and killed him. It was really too bad for that. This is because there were quite a lot of uses for Guxian.
Being unable to kill him would actually be an advantage.
I was thinking of digging up information first.
“Why did you come over?”
He came over to the continent while offering his heart. Aiden couldn’t understand at all. Guxian was a demon who valued his own life the most.
The guy snorted.
“Will this body open its mouth?”
Aiden immediately let go of his divinity. Chii profit! The far-off purity burned the meat.
Gu Xian was giggling even as he screamed. The harmony created a very strange impression.
said the bastard, bursting into madness.
“You are indeed arrogant! What a source of despair! Did you think there would be something to be gained by torturing this body!”
It was not wrong. This kind of method will never work for Guxian. In fact, Iden was well aware of it. Violence was only used out of anger.
Immediately, he withdrew his divinity and drew a cruel smile. Because I came up with a better way.
“You are right. I was short-tempered.”
“Don’t be foolish, let’s spend a hundred years with this body. I don’t think the continent is bad either.”
The guy laughed sinisterly.
Aiden nodded.
“It is. I invite you to my castle.”
It was a hell that would give Guxian the greatest pain.
Aiden put Guxian’s heart back into the box. A total of seven, including the ones Gielan and Daryl were holding. After checking several times, the box was closed.
As she was about to board Yufe, Saya and Yuriel, who had just arrived, approached Aiden.
Saya opened her mouth. Unlike usual, I didn’t smile brightly.
“Aiden, where are you going?”
“I plan to stop by the sanctuary for a while.”
An artificial island that used to be a principality. Now Valenstalga was designated as a sanctuary.
Saya nodded and said.
“When do you want to see El Quidora? I made an appointment for now.”
“The sanctuary only takes a moment. Let’s meet today.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Aiden found her answer a bit dry. I knew the reason roughly, so I thought I should release it later.
Aiden opened his mouth as he looked over the group gathered here.
“All of you, come to the sanctuary.”
If you pass through the forest of giants, you will find a barren land called the Land of Screams in the past.
Beyond that lies an artificial island. Aiden looked at Saya again.
“Ask for Uriel. Let’s go to the sanctuary together.”
In order to open Gu Xian’s mouth, Uriel was absolutely necessary. However, I couldn’t get Yupe on board and take him. This is because Shinsoo carries only the owner on his back.
If you walk in with the rest, it will be too late. From here to the sanctuary, it was a full day’s walk.
For Aiden, it would have been better if Saya had brought Yuriel. The two didn’t seem to get along very well, but they had definitely flown together some time ago.
Saya frowned slightly. Aiden spoke again.
“Please. Would that be possible?”
After a while, Saya let out a small sigh and hugged Yuriel with her tail.
It was easier than I thought to accept. Aiden wondered if his lover’s personality had become a little docile.
I immediately told the swordsman.
“Gielan, you should come as quickly as possible. You take care of Shiron.”
The Sword Saint was also needed. With his footsteps, he should be able to arrive within a few hours.
Lastly, it pointed to the descendants of the old empire brought from the Devil’s Land. About 50 people. As an aside, Jonah’s fish-man painting was rather pitiful because he fed all of them scales.
Aiden continued to direct.
“You guys escort them and bring them. Be as careful as possible.”
Euron and Daryl, Sain and Jonah replied that they knew.
Aiden sorted out the situation and climbed onto Yufe’s back.
He looked at Saya and said.
“Let’s go.”
Right after that, Yufe spread her huge wings. With the gentle beat of wings, a strong wind hit the ground. It rose slowly, then flew up in an instant.
From a high altitude in the vast sky, Aiden looked down at the ground. Dense forest stretched all the way to the horizon. It was a superb view, but a little far away.
The sanctuary was located at the end of the continent beyond the sea of water.
It was quite far, but it took less than an hour.
*
It has been almost two years since the Principality was destroyed. The brilliant civilization also sank together, but the distant technology still remained in various places on the artificial island.
Many wizards and architects built sanctuaries day and night based on him.
It is not yet complete. One assortment was clearly being prepared.
Aiden looked down at his sanctuary from the sky and let out pure admiration.
It was completely destroyed, but most of it has been restored. Of course, the floating ship or floating island did not work. It was a piece of equipment that was entirely driven by demonic power.
Other than that, the rest was plausible.
Aiden looked at it for a while, then immediately drove the Heavenly Horse. It descended in an instant and landed in the middle of the sanctuary.
A huge plaza with a statue of Aiden. Residents surrounded the large lake located in the center.
The lake was a symbol of the sanctuary created by the collision between the floating island and the ground.
The day Iden dropped Peptune. The poor people of the duchy who had been crying were released from despair.
Since most of the residents here are made up of the lowly, the meaning of that lake was very great.
It was named Shinbeol (神罰), and the day it was created was designated as the liberation day. Also, the day was designated as a sanctuary holiday.
Like now, many people looked at the lake and prayed. Coincidentally, the day Aiden visited was the sanctuary’s holiday.
People’s gazes moved all at once towards Iden, who had landed on the ground.
One by one, they began to bow down to the floor, and eventually everyone knelt down and cried out to their god.
Aiden’s divine power began to soar rapidly. It seemed that there was no ceiling for growth. Ranks are no longer displayed.
Aiden passed them with a calm face and headed towards the lake.
While sleeping, I jumped to the top of the floating island that was stuck alone.
Saya and Uriel also followed.
The scenery of the sanctuary came in at a glance.
Aiden opened the box there. After taking out all of Guxian’s heart, he said.
“It must be a new feeling.”
It was once a place that was a farm of despair. The moment he was about to open his mouth, Yuriel covered each heart with a barrier.
It was to prevent hallucinations in the residents.
Guxian looked down at the people and said.
“……What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about?”
Iden knew how to torture him. He spoke slowly to his trembling heart.
“They are happy.”
Hearts began to beat slowly. The source of despair could never bear human happiness.
Trampling, destroying, and exploiting was the reason for its existence.
Iden continued.
“These are the people who have suffered the greatest misfortune than anyone else. Because of that, I know very well how happy they are right now.”
Right after that, my heart started beating all at once and had a seizure.
Gu Xian tried to escape with a spiritual body, but was blocked by the barrier and was doubly captured by Saya’s energy.
The devil groaned.
Kieee
The hearts were inserted into the skewers Aiden had brought, one by one.
Then, all seven were nailed to the top of the floating island. So that you can see the happiness at a glance.
Guxian screamed as if screaming.
“Release-! I mean full!”
An eyeball protruded from the heart placed in the middle. However, I couldn’t use magic.
Jigsaw Jigsaw! It collided with the barrier and spread the smell of burning.
Hateful eyes stared straight at Iden.
“This body is the thirtieth destruction of the Apocalypse. It is the source of despair, and the family of chaos. I will definitely send you to the Kyu-hwan realm!”
Aiden frowned.
“Shut up. I am a God.”
Saying that, he jumped to the ground. The bastard’s shout echoed loudly.
The scream of the Great Devil made people dread, but it was only for a moment.
Aiden burst into a halo and embraced the villagers. Then he said slowly.
“I want you guys to be happy. Don’t be afraid, smile like you do now. Rejoice. I will always be by your side.”
A brilliant radiance spread across the sanctuary. Its divinity was high and noble, and the threat of the great devil was burned in an instant.
People began to cry out loud to their god. Everyone knelt down and prayed.
The wizards and architects who were working couldn’t take their eyes off Aiden.
Uriel drew the sign of the cross and blessed the gods and followers.
Aiden raised his head and looked at Guxian. He gasped and howled like mad.
Just in time, Gielan arrived and stood in front of Iden.
Aiden looked at him and said.
“In case you don’t know, keep an eye on Gu Xian.”
Uriel handed him the fang.
Aiden gestured to Saya.
“let’s go.”
When he returns after meeting Elquidora, Gusian will most likely tell the truth without saying anything.
Even if I had to hold on a little longer, I just had to tie it up for a few days.
Aiden then boarded the Yupe and flew into the sky.
