Lightning didn’t fall from the sky – 4
“Sophistry. It would be disappointing if it was just sophistry that came all the way here.”
I was reading my mind, but I doubted my ears.
Up until a moment ago, it was Uraehoeju who harbored human anguish. But something flashed like a thunderbolt, throwing all the anguish beyond recognition and transforming into a thunderstorm.
As if the thunderstorm was not human.
“To replace one’s body with something else human-made. That is the second type of taboo, the deadly sin of grafting. It’s a homunculus dilemma that even ungodly wizards are wary of, but to stand by? To drop all human beings in the nations under the grip of the Golden Goblet? To let a man abandon the dignity that makes him human?”
Her head is bouncing. The power of thunder, which spread throughout the whole body, gathers again. However, the direction of gathering is a little strange.
A bright yellow ring rises above the head of Thunderstorm. Angel… The ring of current, which seems unstable to be called ‘, is causing an unpleasant noise.
“It is better to live with pain for the rest of your life than to lower your dignity.”
With both strength and arrogance, that figure is no different from an angel. If I had to forcibly find a different point, it would be that he is using his own body like an angel through the medium of thunder, rather than calling the image of an angel.
It’s ironic that the least human thing here is discussing human dignity. No matter how you look at it, you’re the weirdest!
“Your whole body is made up of the crops of the golden mirror, right? You can’t use that power to your heart’s content, while others shouldn’t. It’s like kicking a ladder!”
“That’s why I have to be special. Otherwise, humans would covet my body and power instead of longing for it. Everyone will scramble to fill their bodies with excrement from the Golden Jing. If all humans gain the same power as mine, the world’s order will collapse like a toy!”
Thunderstorm’s hair rises as if wrapped in a ring of current. It looks like an angel dealing with punishment, or a puppet controlled by a ring above its head. As she climbed up, her hair spread out to the side and swayed up and down like wings.
The thunderstorm glared at me with eyes filled with the light of lightning, and after receiving a new revelation, glared at me.
“Do you really think it is okay for humans to lose their dignity, King of Men?”
Seriously, now not only dogs and cows, but also rolling stones will recognize me and ask how I am. Why don’t you gossip at all?
Because the Mist Duchy is right next to it, there is no decent temple in Claudia. Wu Rehoeju has never seen a temple in his life, and may have theology as an academic.
However, now that he received the revelation, Wu Lehuiju was a more devout believer than anyone else and a comrade who shared his will with them.
She was chosen by fate and became the Lord of Thunder with that opportunity and power.
“It was the Holy Sword, Lord Thunder. Sheesh, I asked a stupid question.”
Seonghwangcheong’s direct military force, the Holy Sword Corps, is chosen by fate.
No one orders them to become the Holy Sword. They also do not apply to become the Holy Sword Corps. Just, living normally among other humans, at some point suddenly realizes.
They are the Sacred Swordsman, and they are said to have been chosen by fate. The only thing that will understand and affirm them is the celestials.
The strength I gained by chance, the teachings I believed in and followed, the values I worked hard to keep, and the things I desperately wanted. Realizing that all of that already exists, you follow the revelation.
“To think that the human king, who should protect human dignity more than anyone else, betrayed it. You should have disappeared too.”
That’s really stupid. Who was born because they wanted to be born and disappeared because they wanted to disappear? I replied furiously.
“This is because all of you have given strange names, but a human king is not a king? The king who commands the people one by one to do this and that is a concept invented by humans.”
There’s nothing I can do for you even if you expect it as you please. First of all, I am the king of beasts. When humans were beasts, beings that represent them all… Was
After all, I am influenced by the entire human species. Shall we say that he is the king of horses, but rather the representative of pants who has been promised unpaid labor since he was born, who only does dirty work? On the other hand, your king is really good. You can change people as you please.
Well, maybe that’s why they drove out the human king.
“What should a human being be like? Should he maintain his dignity? Where the hell is that kind of person you think? Doesn’t sound like the person I know. What is dignity and should we protect it? Is it an emergency food? Then I’d like to share some. Don’t keep it hidden.”
It was my pure intention without mixing a single lie.
“I don’t care what people become, how miserable they fall…. Heung, the word barbarism suits me.”
“No matter how human beings become, no matter how miserable they fall. Wouldn’t he be human too? I’m not in denial like you.”
“And what if the city perishes? What if morality disappears? What if the order breaks down? If those things that protect humans disappear in an instant, what will become of the remaining humans?”
The thunderstorm splattered his arms. Now, naturally, the finger with the thunderbolt pointed at the nearby children. She pointed to the crying little children and cried out as if vomiting her blood.
“Golden Sutra! Because that cursed demon destroyed the order of the forbidden kingdom, many tragedies took root in this land! It’s not about accepting the power you can’t handle. If it’s the power to destroy the world, it must disappear forever, not appearing on the surface! To cause many deaths, chaos and terror, war and tragedy! Better to bury it in Sato and forget it altogether!”
That’s how order is kept. After the hard work of building it up, getting rid of everything that could break it. This is the way Seonghwangcheong likes.
“Even the Golden King was a human being. An ordinary, single human being.”
Of course, in a way I would never accept.
“Because it is leading change in the world, because it is too powerful. If you’re going to make it out of common sense as if it’s a demon god, label it, and stop even thinking about it as a taboo….”
Injustice, taboo, taboo. Things that actually existed, but now I dare not even think of them. The reason why they are called demons is because of that….
Even if you say something. I shrugged and continued.
“Well, it doesn’t matter. Because you are human too. I value your wishes too!”
A little bit of anticipation came to mind on Woorehoeju’s face.
“Then.”
“But I need to know! I am the king of men! You guys seem to want me to forget them and never think of them, but that’s like yelling at me to never think of a pink elephant!”
I can’t stand the pink elephant. How can you tell me to forget something like that in my head? If that’s the case, don’t you know
No, is that impossible?
If you want to avoid something, you have to know it closely.
“It’s a breakdown.”
“Not really! Well, it was good entertainment. Unfortunately, we have confirmed that our opinions are parallel, so shall we break up?”
“… It should be.”
Thunder Huiju let out a sigh and moved his body, slightly shaking his thunderbolt wings.

Coming.
Right after that, lightning strikes right in front of my eyes. Leaving a wisp of wind and lightning behind, the thunderstorm jumped out and grabbed my neck. Oh, without a chance to do anything, my body breaks the desk and slams into the wall.
Bang, I feel a strong shock. Blood circulates from the cracked mouth. Grabbing my neck, the thunderstorm glared at me with eyes filled with murderous intent.
Did you know how to say “? You would have expected that I wouldn’t let go easily.”
Oh, really. It’s fast, really fast. Even if you read your thoughts, your reaction is delayed. I answered with a sharp pain.
“… Cool, I will. I was expecting trouble to come. I couldn’t believe that Uraehoeju would come in person.”
I didn’t know even with mind reading. You didn’t even know you were the Holy Sword! But how do I know! Do not worry about who you are!
“I should have come with a colleague. Your stupidity has brought death upon you. You, who have lost your power, will not be able to overcome any obstacles.”
“That’s right. I’m just a normal human…. Whoops!”
I am getting short of breath. I squeezed the last of my energy and grabbed the arm of the thunderstorm. The arm that bursts with lightning seems to be grasping steel with a hand.
No matter how hard I try, those sturdy arms won’t budge. She was born as a urehuiju, grew up as a urehweeju, and with the status of a urehweeju, she is literally an iron man.
‘A pitiful figure… Is this the human king? I’ll finish it. It would be easier to convince his colleagues if the cause of death was electrocution.’
Lightning strikes through that hand. A thrilling sensation runs down my throat, like when I drink carbonated water. It seems that ants are crawling all over the body.
Still, even an iron man… Because I’m human
‘Even if you hold hands covered in thunderbolts… No blows?’
This is surprising.
I grabbed Uraehoeju’s arm and moved slowly. Her powerful power, which handles her thunderbolts like qigong, is something that can never be shaken with ordinary power.
Then, how about the same thunderbolt?
Born with thunderbolts, raised with thunderbolts. Even the body is familiar with the thunderbolt. For her, her electric shock was like playing in the water, and she felt the current… At one point, I grabbed her thunderbolt in my hand.
The natural unique magic of a natural person. An image created by qi-gong with the power of troubled thunder.
Unique magic sword, thunder catcher.
Along with Thunderstorm’s arm, he also held her thunderbolt in his hand.
By nature, lightning has no choice but to flow. After all, lightning is like a river flowing from the high heavens. A concept that has no choice but to flow until just before it is pooled in the sea.
It’s so short and flashy that it’s just considered power, but its essence is flow. Uraehoeju holds it in his hand.
If she can do it, she can do it too.
Because all humans, including me, are ordinary.
Hard. Squeeze and move the thunderstorm with the power of the thunderstorm. Because her self is her own power, I can handle her body as much as she can handle mine. Kang-Wan, who seems to be fine even if the lightning tower collapses, is gradually pushed away by the strength of my arms.
Her eyes opened wide in disbelief, and my mouth opened as she regained her freedom.
“Even against you, the odds are only half and half.”
