A king who kills others, a god who kills himself – 15
A bell rings in my hand.
The sound of bells has long been used to wake people up. The same goes for the keepsake of the golden mirror, and the clear sound pulled me into reality, who had been immersed in his image. Deeply submerged consciousness emerges. When I came to my senses, I was back at the moment I waved the bell of the Golden Sutra.
No matter how long time passes in the image, it is only a moment in reality. Inside, I had a conversation with Hwang Geum-gyeong for a while, but to others, it would look like I was playing a game of ringing the bell.
It’s my consciousness. Anyway, my body paused to accept what had happened in that short time. Have you read too much I need to come to my senses soon.
“Demo!”
It was then. Elric pushed me away with the momentum he was running towards. I couldn’t read my mind and couldn’t deal with it, so I was roughly knocked out. I feel a heavy pain in my back and lower back.
As expected, pain is proof of being alive. I’m feeling a bit better now because I’m sick. I didn’t want that much, but I mean.
“You bastard, what did you do to Demo… !”
Elric stopped staring at me with angry eyes. With his eyes wide open, he turned his trembling head and looked at the golden sutra. With astonishment, fear, and fear of the unknown. Elric called the name of the golden mirror.
“De… What?”
There is no answer to the king’s call. Instead, the golden mirror moved with a clearer will. As the little boy took a step, there was a roar like a giant leveling the ground.
We do not go there because there is a road. Where he goes, there is a road. Instead of following the world that already exists, he cuts and fixes it to create the world he wants, and he can truly be called a demon.
Cheer-ra-la-la-rak. The world will change in front of the golden mirror. He takes a step, and the soil is compacted and leveled, and the rock is cut into squares and covers it. A moment of creation is like turning time backwards. Hwang Keum-gyeong, who made the main road, proudly walked ahead. Following him, the homunculus soldiers and his weapons also began to march. As for Elric, the Golden Lord who oversaw the Golden Palace.
A memento of the demon who drank, the Golden Sutra. It was a posthumous work created just before the death of the Demon God who wished to rebuild the Golden Kingdom.
That’s why it’s strange to live inside the Golden Palace, enjoying playing with dolls. It’s not strange even if it was like this a long time ago. Because the wind of the golden mirror was always the same.
However, the golden mirror, stricken with a sense of guilt, was hesitant about creation that accompanied destruction. So, they were wandering around the nations repeating vain creations.
However, now that I am aware of my inner self and have freed myself from the bondage. There’s nothing stopping it.
It breaks and crumble. Things that have turned into materials eventually come to this land with a new form. As part of the gold country.
The Golden Goblet proceeded to create true creation, causing certain destruction.
The legions surrounding us retreated. No, should I say that the legion withdrew? The golden palace itself moved, and it felt as if the world was moving forward.
Hilde, who watched until she was far enough away, let out a sigh of relief and turned her body back. After that, she approached me with a lively attitude.
“As expected Father! ‘I’ believed in you!”
‘Oh my God? Are you successful with this? I thought it would stir up a lot of anger!’
What you mean and what you say are completely different. How dare you lie in front of me? I got up and replied.
“You believed it? Really?”
“Of course. If ‘I’ don’t believe, then who will believe in Father? The one who knows my father better than anyone else is ‘me’!”
“You know what. You put saliva on your lips and lie.”
“Lick. I applied it!”
“Acupuncture means lying.”
“Ah! Caught!”
Hilde didn’t trust me 100%. Rather than doubting my strength, it was because she wanted this plan to go awry, but seeing that she came along and cooperated with the plan even in the midst of that, she was insane. Do you have a gambler’s mind, or are you just too immersed in acting?
Anyway, as Hilde said, the mission was a success. War will not happen.
The problem is, it’s because of the side effects that it will lead to… How can I explain this? It will take some thought.

More than anyone else….
“… How did it go? Where is the golden mirror going?”
How to explain to Peru. I’ll have to seriously think about it here. Even for my life.
Let’s quickly explain and move on. Could you please list it in an easy to understand way?
“Everyone. I have good news and I have bad news.”
Hilde took my words in a theatrical tone.
“For some reason, I suddenly get scared~. If the news is ‘bad’ even from my father’s point of view, is the world going to end tomorrow?”
“No. The world will not perish.”
“… ?”
‘What do you mean? Could it be that something else will perish? Oh, no way!’
I understand you well. Why don’t you respond to this? I spoke rather quickly because if I waited longer, I might miss the golden time.
“Let me tell you the good news first.”
“Is there no choice? ‘I’ wanted to hear the bad news first.”
“Enough. After I had a serious conversation with Hwang Keum-gyeong, I don’t think there will be a war with the military!”
Hey, why is the reaction so cold? It must be good news, but the response is smaller than expected. Hilde whined reluctantly at the news I delivered.
“That’s not very good news for ‘me’, is it? I’d rather go to war As long as you put away the golden gyeong, the nations are no big deal~.”
“… Any bad news?”
Peru interrupted Hilde and urged me on.
From noble mtl dot com
Moan. Did you try to lessen the shock with good news, but failed? Attitude matters from now on. Clearing my throat, I delivered the bad news with a hint of regret.
“The Golden Sutra intends to destroy the nations.”
It was a simple fact that nothing was added or taken away. Maybe it was because it was too light without being oily? Peru and Hilde both pondered on the words for a while, not understanding immediately.
Hilde, who came to her senses relatively early, tilted her head.
“What? Is this good news for ‘me’?”
What is good news for one person can be a terrible tragedy for another person. Learn the truth of life here.
Peru asked with a disbelieving face.
“… Uh?”
‘… What? What did you do? The golden mirror is the reason.’
“Let me explain briefly. Peru, The Golden Bell is a relic of the Golden Sutra. I was going to take a test to be recognized as a memento. However, I won’t take the test so that it doesn’t look like a keepsake, and I’ll keep rebuilding the gold country. What is it? So they criticized me for being like this, where I was eaten up by wildcats in two days and left no shape. Then, well.”
To be precise, the golden mirror passed my test, but anyway. It’s roughly the same, so let’s skip it. I spit on my mouth and continued.
“I didn’t even say anything, but he said that he would kill all the wildcats in order to give permanence to the golden kingdom that was about to disappear!”
“… Lie. It can’t be.”
“I wish I was lying too. Please confirm it. You probably don’t have much time. Because the Golden Jing has now moved to burn the Seungnyang’s nest.”
At the last moment, Hwanggeumgyeong remembered something. I read the location before being ricocheted back into reality.
The reason why the nations have become semi-nomadic states is because the golden landscape is moving. People of the nations must avoid him who destroys for the sake of creation and eat the by-products he left behind. Therefore, no one was able to make a residence and became a wanderer.
But only one place. Only one village located at the foot of the mountain is out of reach of the golden landscape, and thus has become the only settled city in the country.
Ruled by the greatest Lord of Heaven, Lord of Thunder, a city that teaches children alchemy and provides wholesome food to escape the curse of the Golden Sutra.
“Claudia. It is the only settled land in the nations and the city with the most people.”
Until now, Hwang Hwang Kyeong, who had only been making things for the reconstruction of the Golden Kingdom, changed his attitude.
Left without an inhabitant, ‘Geumguk’ becomes food for seungnyang. If so, wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone to use it as a homunculus to protect the gold country by killing all the seungnyang? With that conclusion, I am moving to capture seungnyangi and use them as watchdogs.
The Golden Sutra, a keepsake, will try to kill the seungnyang with rational and methodological means, and the simplest method cannot be overlooked. Moral? It belongs to the living It wouldn’t matter to Golden Kyung, who had already died horribly.
“The Golden Sutra will be destroyed from there, and everyone living there will be turned into homunculus. As a homunculus that protects the golden kingdom forever!”
Not to mention, the new homunculus that the golden mirror will create will be on a different level from now. Hwang Keum-gyeong, who was greatly disappointed in humans, hadn’t really ‘designed’ humans until I unbridled them! How far can a sincere golden mirror make a human being? How far are you human?
I’m curious as the human king, but before that, Peru stretched out his hand and grabbed me by the collar. The back is bent in a bow.
“… What did you do… ?”
Peru was glaring at me with the greatest emotion he had ever seen.
Main characters like these makes me think that Lee Kiyoung is a perfect member of society. What a psycho, lol.
fr RIM is such a good novel
