444 – Reverse Heaven Trial – 7
“You’re a coward-. We had the same body. It was the same dead person. Even if your heart is cold and you can’t feel anything… Because I was one with my ancestor, I was no longer lonely. “Leave us alone, you’re a coward.”
A faint chord follows Muri’s sobbing voice. The ghost dancer, the muli reflected in the sunset is a dancer. She hums songs, dances, and decorates the bleak principality with art. Myuri herself lost her inspiration after becoming a vampire, but the slightest change that Tir Khanjaka felt every time she listened to her music touched Myuri’s heart and made her continue to make her music.
“Progenitor-. Why have you abandoned us? Leave and sleep. After ignoring him, I saw him again… “You’re throwing us away like we’re devoted friends.”
But now that her bonds have been broken, nothing resonates in Myuri’s heart.
Inspiration, emotion, embarrassment, and betrayal. The emotions that Tirkanjaka was supposed to feel disappeared.
For an artist, inspiration is everything. Now that Tirkanjaka has disappeared to listen and evaluate, Muri’s music has no audience. Art without an audience is nothing. Now that the founder has left to find a man, Myuri has become nothing.
“I did not cast you out! “Didn’t you come here based on your own judgment?”
Tirkanjaka answered, but to those who had lost their restraints, Tirkanjaka’s voice was just a noise that did not move their hearts. Rahu Khan said.
“Clan leader. Bridle is a promise. I, keep the body that I received from her mother. So she became a vampire. However, the clan chief broke his promise.”
“Even if I get your heart back, your immortality will not disappear. No, on the contrary, it has become stronger. You will not die under my command! “What’s the problem?”
In his immaturity, the founder’s elders died indiscriminately even though they had immortality. Although it was partly because their power was weak compared to powerful enemies, there were many cases where Tirkanjaka and Elder were unable to control their power and went berserk. Therefore, Progenitor Tir Khan Xhaka accepted only strong people who could control his power even if he had it in their hands.
“… Different. “Now, we are different from our mother.”
Blood leech Bakuta Ong. A deep swamp predator with no age or origin. To relieve his hunger, he became an Elder and chewed something sadly, caressing his hungry stomach.
“We all decided to be the same. That you won’t be lonely. However… “What if I change on my own?”
“You mean things have changed? What’s changed, Bakuta! You are still an Elder. “You can’t feel hungry!”
“… But. Mom. I’m hungry. Something is missing. “It’s not filling.”
Ba Kuta Ong looked around him with empty eyes. The vampires retreated in surprise as they looked at even fellow vampires as prey.
Reverse Heaven Trial dot comThe power to drink the blood of others and make it your own is unique to Bakuta. If you are devoured by him, no matter how much of a vampire he is, he will not be able to regenerate. The gluttony of eating others means being ostracized by birth. The reason he was able to remain together as a member of the Elder was because he was suppressed by Tirkanjaka’s powerful blood manipulation techniques.
Under the founder’s rule, Bakuta Ong leisurely slaughtered animals and demonstrated his expertise.
It means that it has been like that until now. Rahu Khan looked at Bakuta, who was suffering from an empty stomach, and said as if he realized something.
“Hunger, no. “It is desire.”
“… Craving?”
“The clan chief took his place. Our desires were taken away. So we were at peace. But then the desire came back.”
“Uhm-. I guess so. I want to move. I want to dance. I want to tear myself apart. I want to drink. I want to be held in your arms… Sijo also-. “Did you want to be hugged by a man?”
“That’s for later!”
The Elder, free from bondage, continues to ask questions. Tirkanjaka answers the question.
No one struck a hammer or announced the start. The reverse trial against the founder has already begun.
Ain, Yeiling. Vampires who no longer had to follow their ancestors each moved to their own lords. Since he was at the top, there was no one below him, so the founder was left alone.
The throne became a court. The founder was left alone without any relatives and was interrogated by vampires.
I thought I had a clue, but then something happened. The vampire children were also really bad. Since the founder lost his power for a moment, he immediately started a rebellion. I thought there was no blood or tears, but it seems shameless.
You have to escape first. If the Elder rebels and comes, this Full Moon Castle will soon become a battlefield.
“Let’s get out of the castle first! “No matter where you go, you have to keep your feet on the ground!”
I ripped off the curtains hanging from the bed. The bed itself is a historical relic made a long time ago, and even a single curtain is a valuable treasure, but it is not more precious than my life. I immediately tied the ends of the curtain together to make a handle.
“Father. “What are you going to do?”
“I want to use it as a parachute! Don’t try to ride Hilde. “Because it’s for one person!”
“… “It doesn’t matter if ‘I’ leave like this.”
That’s right. Hilde is also a six general. For Yook Jangseong, who learned the art of falling, falling is nothing more than an easy vertical movement that requires no effort.
This is also true for vampires…. Oh, am I the only one who is afraid of falling? If this is the case, why do you have a fear of heights?
“Are you more serious today than that?”
“I’ll start joking once I get out of here. Please leave first. “They will be here soon.”
“Pros and cons are clear…. Uh? Why is my collar now….”
Hilde grabbed the bed with her feet and pushed hard. With a grunt, the huge bed flew across the room and hit the opposite wall. Normally, it would be easy to imagine the terrible devastation caused by a collision between a wall and a bed, but the huge bed that an old noble would have used did not stop even after the collision.
Wajangchang.
The bed breaks the wall and swims in the air. Unfortunately, falling things have no wings. The relics that have stayed in the founder’s bedroom for hundreds of years will soon become rubble. I owe you a lot, bed. Even though I bullied him a lot, he was comfortable thanks to me. I will mourn you.
“Go first. ‘I’ will follow soon.”
“No way, that’s not true…” “aaah!”
Hilde threw me against the broken wall. I flew through the air, ending up in the same bed I had mourned for a moment ago.
“aaah! “It’s not finished yet!”
As I fell, I saw two of Erzébut’s children kicking in the door, but it doesn’t matter anymore. Because I have to worry about my life.
Wait for the speed to pick up a bit. It only spreads wider when the wind blows. After counting to five in my mind, I spread my hands vigorously and opened the curtain parachute. Fortunately, just because it was an antique, it didn’t make it any more fragile. The sturdy and durable curtains supported my weight.
The air in the principality is heavy. In addition to the moist sea breeze, the air of the principality, filled with unknown darkness, clings to my body as if submerged in water.
With the dark and hazy sea in the distance in the background, I descended to the ground quite quickly….
“Wait a minute. “It’s still a bit fast.”
I think it would be a huge shock even if I failed at all the Qigong techniques I know, but I wonder if it would be okay. What should I do with this? Just as my eyes were pondering, I heard the sound of the bed breaking down below. The frame is all broken and only the soft mattress remains….
Oh.
“I’m sorry. “I was indebted to you until the end.”
I fell onto the bed mattress and got up, shaking off my clothes. Thanks to the tearful sacrifice of the curtains, the wall, and the mattress they made for the bed, I was fine. When I took a deep breath and looked up, Hilde was standing there wearing a nurse uniform with a sullen look on her face.
“Ah, what a surprise. What. Obviously I failed first, so when did I arrive?”
Was it not a case of falling, but a way of falling quickly? While I was confused, Hilde turned around and walked ahead.
“Please follow me.”
“Your attitude has been cold since a while ago? “What are you so upset about?”
“The situation is urgent. “There’s no time to chat, so let’s hurry.”
Hilde guided me through her eerie alley, as if Manwol Castle was her front yard. Yeongwe’s appearance can be seen in his extremely business-like appearance.
You feel very uncomfortable. Things take a turn for the worse… Probably not. Clearly dissatisfied with me.
“Are you jealous?”
“I wish it was jealousy, father.”
Hilde answered without even looking at me.
“For several days, rumors were spreading that my father was spending the night with his ancestors. First to vampires, then to humans. Now, the rumors about the founder and his mistress in this old castle are no secret.”
“That’s a bit embarrassing. “I’m proud too.”
“I’m proud. Under.”
Hilde sighed and spun her body around, glaring at me with sharp eyes and saying.
“‘I’ did my best. But what did your father do? Rolling around in bed with Sijo? “She has her father’s marks engraved on her body?”
“It was a fun time.”
“If you were planning on building a closer bond with your ancestors, you should have taken care of what you had to do first.”
Is it because she is still wearing her nurse uniform? Hilde spoke bluntly and seemed to be several times more blunt than usual.
“Knowing that there are clearly forces rebelling against the founder. Before she can solve that, she takes Sijo into the room? Are you having fun during this golden time? She said her father was a beast, but she still thought he could handle his own crisis. “She held back, and when I came in, she was lying on the bed.”
“I guess I’m a little lazy. But a request came in from Tyr.”
“If I was going to complain about the pillow head, it would have been better to have told Tirkanjaka first and let him deal with it. “Your father is helpless.”
It feels a bit strange to be called ‘father’ and be treated with contempt. When I just smiled awkwardly, Hilde looked at me like I was looking at a bug and said.
“The sleeping Elder has woken up. I don’t know if they will be hostile or friendly towards the founder. Because this is the first time that the founder’s control has weakened. No one can immediately predict what kind of unexpected behavior a vampire who has lost control will do. Even a saint.”
“How can I do something that even a saint doesn’t know about?” .”
“But, my father, who was immediately attacked by a human, should have been careful.”
The eyes are sharp, as if they could cut me. Hilde, you now follow me as your father, but in reality, you are Yeongwe, who served as the head of the Public Safety Department in the military for a long time. I was scared because I felt like I could see a glimpse of that side, so I quickly calmed down.
“Well, there are still many Elders who are friendly to Tyr, right? Historically, most Elders were those who received favor from Tyr. Above all, Lady Kabila, a woman of blood, is devoted to her founder.”
“… Do you know what information ‘I’ found out?”
I knew it by reading his mind, but I asked him a question out of courtesy.
“What is it?”
“Like Elders, demi-humans are equal to each other. Just because someone is a little better doesn’t mean they can rule over another demi-human. An Elder is needed to unite and move the demi-humans. Even if it’s not necessarily your elder.”
“Does that mean there is an Elder who united the demi-humans of Ruskinia?”
“And the results of my investigation. That Elder….”
***
The point at which the authority of the founder falls in real time. Kabila clapped his hands in displeasure. At that moment, a huge presence broke through the wall and appeared.
Several vampires quickly retreated and attempted to defend themselves against the attack with the power of blood. However, the gigantic presence lightly ignored the vampire’s attack and widened the hole with its claws.
“He said he would show me and let’s watch, but he was so ungrateful that he didn’t know the favor of killing me! How dare you mock the sister who shared her blood with you?”
Bones of the sea chest. To be exact, it is the exoskeleton of a sea beast that was attacked and died while escaping. One day, when the body of Hae-Hyung washed up on the shore, Kabila collected it and made a doll of her. She had difficulty turning the sea creature’s corpse into a doll, but Kabila succeeded after her hard work.
The claws of the lobster tear through the hall. The hard carapace deflects most attacks and sweeps in all directions. In an instant, the courtroom became a mess, and Kabila approached Tir Khan Xhaka wearing her blood cloak.
“Sister. Look. Those foolish bastards. Those trash who think that just because they got their heart back, all that blood is their own strength. It can’t stay like this. If things continue like this, they will not only seek her sister’s place, but also her blood and her life.”
She alone turned the tide of battle and approached Kabila, looking like the savior of her ancestors, and Kabila herself was completely absorbed in that role. Now, she has fulfilled her desires as Kabila blossoms more satisfactorily than anyone else.
“I can’t help it, sister.”
And unlike other Elders, Kabila’s human and trivial desires….
“I will stop her sister’s heart for a moment. “To be my sister again.”
It is completed by killing the founder. Just before Kabila withered, she smiled brightly like a flower petal and made a proposal to her progenitor.
