76 Tue-Invasion and Erosion(5)
[I know you’re mad]
“Yeah? It seems to have worked out better.”
I got up and walked around the barracks.
Once I got it from the opposite sex. Because the Legion was a being that shouldn’t have dared to deal with human emotions.
I had to clearly and clearly communicate why I was angry and what I was asking for, without any misunderstanding.
[Right now, the corps is also very confused. Why are you angry?]
“…I couldn’t stand it for a moment.”
I let out a deep sigh. A sense of self-doubt came over me.
Am I in a position to be angry? It wasn’t at all. For the growth of the corps, and for the safety of ‘we’ through that growth, I condoned and acknowledged the slaughter of the corps as if I was a ruthless small citizen.
The only thing I thought should be stopped was that the gluttony and twisted obsession of the Legion extended to me and my surroundings.
However, all this understanding and recognition was based solely on the premise that the Legion was for its own growth and nourishment.
“I just skipped killing for food and growth. But I couldn’t stand the idea of catching women and disassembling them alive to collect data because I wanted to create a look that I would like.”
[Why?]
“You mean you killed someone for me, not for yourself!”
I couldn’t help myself and laughed out loud. This is right I’m stupid After all, in their words, whether analyzed or used for nourishment, in the end it is the same as death.
But, selfishly, I had a hard time accepting the fact that people were caught and killed because of me.
It was only with such weakness that I could understand why the spectator was passing me through until the Swarm’s ego developed.
“I’ll have to shoot a video. So that I can convey my sincerity, I need to clear up the misunderstanding first.”
I fiddled with the air system. I was going to take a picture anyway, but the thing I needed right now exploded.
It would be much better to take a video and send it to convey my feelings than just having me convey my words on my behalf.
“And I’ll have to give it a try this time. Start with the little things one by one. I wonder how the Legion will listen to me.”
Having installed my cell phone, I caught my breath.
It does not scold the behavior, nor does it force the way. just communicating with each other. The corner I believe in is that the corps likes me quite a bit by the way I’ve been doing so far.
“Uh… I’ll tell you once I understand. To you… To my unit, the Legion, who must have been surprised now.”
And this video will be the first communication I give directly to the corps for the first time.

“Why are you so slow!”
Nest, now the corps was in an unreasonably impatient state.
Even though he knew that his emotions would affect the entire corps, it was hard to control it.
There is only one person in the universe who can have such an effect on this huge being, alone and in multitude.
And the corps was waiting for the video letter sent to him by the one and only person to arrive at the bottom floor of the labyrinth.
[Wait calmly]
“Tell me in advance! He said the screen turned off right away. He, is he mad at me? Just say that!”
The creature, who had brutally killed countless people, without the slightest bit of agitation, screamed into the air like a swarm of children and rolled its feet.
[I don’t think what I’m saying is meaningless, so see for yourself]
Then, the cell phone he bestowed arrived at the underground nest.
The corps, unable to afford to wait, took special measures.
The body on the ground was left as it was, and a part of the nest cells in the lowest layer containing the cell phone were overgrowth to create eyes and ears.
It was a terrifying shape with fluttering tentacles, eyes and ears, but he didn’t have time to care about his outward appearance.
He tapped the phone screen using his tentacles and played the video in haste.
“It’s not your fault.”
And this was the first word he uttered after nailing it as saying he was talking to the corps in the video.
“So…it was a natural human nature. Humans, by nature, don’t like other people to die because of them. Especially me. I have a lot of bad memories.”
He explained why he was angry. The legion unwittingly agreed with that statement.
Above all, the analysis of ‘human’ had already been carried out to some extent.
Just as legions have the nature of the legion, humans have human nature.
“I’m not saying you shouldn’t kill humans. Just don’t do it to make your appearance. As I said before, I think the look you made yourself is the best.”
“The self-made look.”
He also knew that the corps was trying to build a body from Kang Do-yeon’s testimony, so the unsuspecting corps nodded and nodded its tentacles.
There was no rebellious look on his face, worried and concerned that he might disregard his orders.
“You are always the most important thing. I respect your opinion and acknowledge your instincts.”
‘I’m important. Recognize me.’
He wanted to have the least amount of influence, just in case, without blocking the path of the overpowered corps.
And, at least until now, his influence has been greater than the nature of the Legion. To the Legion, more than a hundred words, one word that you are the most important was enough.
It was a word that blew away the anxiety that had been lurking in the past while not being able to communicate directly.
“I want to give you a present.”
‘gift.’
“A name you can call.”
name. At that one word, everything in the corps froze in an instant.
It was not that the Legion did not have a concept of a name.
He already knew what his name was and what it meant.
It’s just that there’s no one who dares to give a name to himself because he hasn’t paid attention until now. Even if someone called me by a specific designation, I had no intention of admitting it.
If there is such a being, it is because he is the only person who has been deeply involved with him since the beginning of his life.
“To the ego of the Legion that was born. Your name…I’ll call you Eve from now on, so I hope we get a chance to talk to each other soon.”
He groaned for a few days and said the name he had been pondering over.
A man who was an ordinary college student chose from among the meaningful, grandiose and beautiful names, in the end, a slightly ordinary and easy-going name that could be attached to a person.
[Do you like it?]
‘of course.’
The feeling of the corps quickly changed. At this moment, I feel better than ever. It was a gift more valuable than any other gift.
[Then focus on the battlefield. Slowly, the human counterattack begins]
The video ended there. At the same time, the Legion looked elsewhere.
The locals, who had only been subjected to the attack that were spreading to the brink, gathered their troops and started a full-fledged resistance.
“Kill! The ancient demons that climbed up from hell, the demons of ruin!”
In an area quite far from here, a group of knights, armed with flashing armor, were running on horseback and attacking the legionaries who had attacked the village.
[Within a few minutes of getting a name, I got a new name. Destruction is the term they used to call the Destroyer Bacteria]
“It doesn’t matter that the destructive bacteria they drove from the earth in the past have eventually become a part of us. So, is this an opportunity for revenge?”
Legion, Eve didn’t care anymore about the titles they used to refer to.
After all, his name is now fixed as one. Rather, I did not intend to let them call this sacred name.
‘Kill them all.’
The feeling of the Legion, who had a dreamlike time through communication with him, fell again coldly.
When it comes to war, it becomes a slaughter machine, radiating nothing but scorching rage and madness. Rather, this was closer to the true form of the corps.

Medium-sized legionaries based on four-legged beasts sprinted to the ground towards the rushing knights.At the same time, the swords held by the knights were aimed forward.
“Trial operation.”
The situation is about ten seconds before a collision as they run towards each other with murderous intent. Everyone would be afraid to see the black-armored monsters with a size comparable to that of a warhorse running in this direction with their eyes flashing.
At that moment, the man in the middle of the formation raised his arm. In his hand was not a spear, but a short wand with a gem studded at the tip.
“Connecting Circuits. Maximizing Output.”
The wand he held shone and drew a spell.
The spell worked by drawing a blue glowing line.
The point of reference for this order circuit is none other than the knights running together. Their bodies, connected by lines, began to burn blue as they shared each other’s magic.
“Aww!”
Thanks to the spell that strengthened not only the knights but also the horses, the formation with a sharp end was firmly united and became a single blue spear.
A powerful giant spear capable of destroying and striking out everything that stood in front of it collided with the massive monsters that rushed forward without hesitation with all their might.
“ね…”
“Hold on!”
The exploding shock wave shook the earth’s axis like a bomb had exploded.
It was the knights still maintaining their formation that came out through the shock and smoke in the collision, which was accompanied by a thick dust.
They literally crushed enemies that were heavier, bigger and stronger than them.
‘A new battle method using magic. The Stars School, which uses the escorts as points to organically strengthen and move them.’
The review of the corps watching it was simple.
‘It’s the first time I’ve seen a user. I want to have.’
And at the command that followed, those who had disappeared in the nearby forest moved separately.
