01037 Omnibus – Sovereign Of Sword. ————————————————– ———————-=
Buzz buzz buzz!
My ears were deafened by the melodious buzzing sound.
Hwaaaaaaa!
Even with my eyes closed, my vision seemed to be fading away.
That wasn’t all.
The sound of tearing the air.
The sound of wind so strong that it makes your bangs flutter.
The sound of explosions and the earth splitting apart repeatedly hit my eardrums.
And the desperate screams from beneath the castle… .
Literally all kinds of feelings stimulate Kim Soo-yeon’s five senses at random.
It wasn’t long before it all stopped.
After the noise gradually stopped, the surroundings suddenly became as quiet as a lie.
All I can feel is the sound of my own breathing, which seems to be about to pass over.
Soon, Su-yeon Kim quietly opened her eyes.
“… … .”
And I was at a loss for words at the sight that unfolded before my eyes.
Living hell.
Other than these words, I couldn’t think of anything else to express.
Could this be the source of the earthquake with the highest magnitude?
The wasteland was like a puzzle that had been torn apart and completely turned upside down.
At this point, it was a wonder that the castle was safe.
There is not a single devil standing in sight.
no.
Regardless of whether it is standing or lying down, even finding a healthy corpse is like picking a star in the sky or finding a needle on a sandy beach.
Only by seeing something floating in a pool of blood could I guess what happened to the enemies.
All that remains is a heap of ashes.
There was only one person standing there.
Suddenly, the fire sword came to mind, but Kim Su-yeon shook her head.
Aside from the fact that I can’t feel the energy of Hwajeong.
Even if he used that ability with all his might, it was impossible to show this level of power.
At that time, Kim Soo-hyun slowly turned around and made eye contact with Kim Soo-yeon, who was looking at him with a devastated face.
“!”
Kim Soo-yeon suddenly felt a pulling sensation near her belly button.
At the same time, the scenery of the land that seemed infinitely distant suddenly becomes closer.
The energy that enveloped my entire body and pulled me in was a familiar feeling.
Because it was an ability of empty space attack that she also used often.
It’s just that this time it has changed from subject to object.
Snap.
Suyeon Kim took a deep breath as she felt the sticky sensation coming from the soles of her boots.
As I came down, the devastation became clearer.
Black blood flows steadily, forming a river, and on the ground, thin ripples are forming around the place where one steps on it.
Even though the ground is dry, too much liquid bursts out in a short period of time and cannot be absorbed.
Without exaggerating, being submerged from the ankles down was almost reminiscent of a swamp.
Kim Su-yeon, who was looking at the torn demon, turned her head at a glance.
Kim Soo-hyun has already approached us, his blood-red eyes shining.
“What do you want to do?”
“… what?”
It was an unexpected question.
‘how is it?’ Not ‘What do you want to do?’ rani.
Kim Soo-hyun chuckles at Kim Soo-yeon’s hesitant actions.
“What do you want to do?”
Suddenly, a large hand grabbed the hair of Lucifer, the Seven Great Demons groaning on the ground.
The moment Kim Su-yeon saw her with blood all over her body and only one eye barely open, she realized.
That Kim Soo-hyun didn’t kill the Seven Great Demons on purpose.
Baal’s head was crushed and he was destroyed, but Lilith and Thanatos were still alive.
No, I was just holding my breath.
also.
“What should I do?”
The meaning of the question Kim Soo-hyun asked three times in a row.
“Kill me… . “Hey.”
Even as I spoke, I unknowingly avoided eye contact.
Because I know.
What does the man in front of me want?
“really?”
Kim Soo-yeon clenched her fists at the slightly teasing tone.
“These guys are devils. devil.”
I know this without even having to emphasize it.
He and she both know that they have a stained past that they have not told anyone about.
And now the situation has changed.
“I think you’ve gone through more hardships than me.”
“… … .”
“But are you just going to kill me? really?”
“… … .”
Kim Soo-yeon trembled.
Because it wasn’t wrong.
Although the two are symmetrical beings, they are also quite different.
The most crucial thing among them is that the genders are different.
What kind of hardships did you experience as a woman during the episode that you don’t even want to think about?
You may not know it, but there are probably countless things that were shameful and terrible to even talk about.
“If it were me, I wouldn’t just kill you.”
As if it was okay, as if that was okay.
“What happened to me. what happened to you I’ll give you back more than that. “I did.”
The soft, low-pitched voice is sweet and sweet, like the devil’s whisper.
I had no intention of doing so, but suddenly my ears perked up.
Just letting your imagination run wild for a moment can make you feel happy.
“We deserve it. “You know?”
Kim Su-yeon almost nodded for a moment.
She raised her eyes with a brightly colored face.
And, I could see it clearly.
Eyes shining with blood.
Above all, it is a musical instrument that is tightly packed from the top of the head to the tips of the toes.
It was a gigantic evil that could not be trusted even if it were the incarnation of evil.
“ah… .”
A look of disbelief appears on his complexion, which had brightened even for a moment.
When I first saw him, he had such a goofy face that it was hard to call it symmetrical.
After witnessing his skills, I wanted to be like that man and thought that was my ideal image.
But from the moment I just looked at it, everything is denied.
I no longer felt like we were the same person, and I no longer wanted to be like him.
The strange feeling of discomfort that I felt as if I could not really understand it finally became concrete.
What was thought to be a utopia was not a paradise but a black abyss.
okay.
The man in front of me is-.
It wasn’t human.
It is a monster or something more ferocious.
The devil next to me can’t even compare… .
“So, what should we do?”
It was the fourth question.
It was then.
“first of all… .”
At the same time, Kim Soo-hyun straightened the hair in his hand even more strongly.
Deep.
Kim Su-yeon takes out her sword with lightning speed and plunges the tip of the sword into Lucifer’s uvula.
Kim Soo-hyun blew a small whistle as he watched the Seven Great Demons soon turn into a handful of ashes.
“… “Quit.”
Although she spoke calmly, Kim Su-yeon’s voice was faintly trembling.
“It would be difficult if something went wrong if we kept him alive for no reason. “It would be better to kill him cleanly here.”
Can’t make eye contact while talking.
In reality, it was an excuse that came out randomly.
“okay?”
“okay.”
“… also.”
“… … .”
The corner of the man’s mouth rose slightly, and Kim Soo-yeon lowered her eyes.
I know what the other person wants.
But it didn’t follow.
I felt the difference in class.
Feelings of envy or jealousy have long since disappeared.
Even if you are disappointed, there is nothing you can do.
Because she’s still… .
“you.”
Kim Soo-hyun said with a look on his face that he now understood, that he had finally understood.
Kim Su-yeon followed her instinct and bit her lower lip hard.
“You’re different from me.”
However, Kim Soo-hyun’s voice suddenly became softer.
“… Yes?”
For some reason, it didn’t sound like a criticism but rather an expression of admiration.
*
“You won?”
Jegal Haesol, who was sitting at the table playing with his hands, turned his head and asked.
“So the devil didn’t win, he lost? “The Mercantile Alliance won?”
“This is information that just came in from the East. “I’m sure.”
The messenger who brought the news nodded repeatedly with a stern expression.
“That’s for sure. Things like Eastern gossip… .”
“They said it was information delivered directly by the Shadow Queen.”
Jegal Haesol, who was snorting, immediately frowned at Ami.
“Ai, really?”
He sent out a messenger with a wave of his hand, took out a communication bead, and released magical power.
After completing the short communication, I sighed deeply.
“… They say it’s real. “This is a different story.”
He regained his appetite and continued talking, crossing his arms.
“Wow, that’s amazing by the way. Seriously, how did you win? Mercenary, Istantel Row, Hamill… . There’s no way those three could stop an army that size. Moreover, our power was damaged due to the attack on the Steel Mountains.”
“Did Ground Zero really happen?” Jegal Haesol pondered, poking out his pretty lips.
I’ve been talking to myself since a while ago.
I looked around leisurely, and my eyes were fixed on the head table.
In the direction you look, a woman wearing white light armor with her shoulders slightly exposed is looking distraught.
A strange smile appeared on Jegal Haesol’s lips.
“Our Seonghu~. What’s wrong with your face? “Did you catch some poop?”
“hey!”
Bandahee, who was sitting across from me, suddenly screamed.
Jegal Haesol laughed and waved his hand.
“Joke joke. Anyway, don’t cry too much. Their victory is definitely unexpected. But anyway, there’s only one thing for us to do, right?”
“… “Do you have any good ideas?”
Bandahee’s attitude softened slightly due to the other person’s relaxed attitude.
“huh? Good idea? “There’s nothing like that?”
“what?”
Jegal Haesol opened his eyes wide and tapped his temple with his index finger.
“hey. You know. It’s right to try to ignore it, but if you have a brain, try thinking about it. yes?”
“This is real.”
“Let’s put everything aside and just look at the present. Even in the Iron Mountains, the demon bastards I trusted were defeated. As a result, the Mercantile Alliance completely gained control of the new continent. But we and Dongbu joined hands long before that. Now, what should we do here?”
“I am.”
Just as Band Da-hee was about to get angry, Yoo Hyeon-ah, who had remained silent until now, opened her mouth.
Then everyone closed their mouths and turned their heads.
She shook her head, still looking distressed.
“I don’t feel like it either.”
“Ah, jebaaal~. “Our sacred warrior, Hime-sama~.”
Jegal Haesol made a crying sound and threw his head back sharply.
And yet he was still smiling, as if he expected this to happen.
Yoo Hyeon-ah looked at me and muttered.
“But the devil is a common enemy… . “It’s like this.”
“yes yes. Of course it is.”
“User Jegal Haesol. I can’t deny the Mercenary Alliance’s credit this time. Success in conquering the Steel Mountains and subduing the devil, which was the long-awaited goal of the North Continent. It must have been very difficult for them too. Now to intercept it… .”
“Oh, that’s what I heard? I was wrong. “Then shall we all throw a welcome party?”
Jegal Haesol said jokingly, clapping his hands together as if he hadn’t expected that.
“That’s right. The side that takes over the new continent will become stronger as time goes by. All we have to do is get stuck in the old continent, suck our fingers, and get eaten. Yes, it fits perfectly.”
A few people raised their eyebrows at the over-the-top attitude, but this time, even Banda-hee did not step forward.
Because I know why Jegal Haesol is being sarcastic.
Yoo Hyeon-ah looked left and right once in a while and closed her mouth with a deep sigh.
“… “What are the odds?”
After a short silence, Cha Seung-hyun opened his mouth heavily.
“Is there anything to be said about winning? Dongbu is useless except for the Shadow Queen and Red Fang, but since it has enough personnel, it can be used as a meat shield. “If we join forces with Martial God, Crazy Bitch, Flash, God’s Shield, and Surama Spear, I don’t think we’ll lose, right?”
Jegal Hae-sol chuckled as he glanced at Gong Chan-ho, a giant holding a black spear.
“The Mercantile Coalition is strong.”
“Hey, let’s be clear. It wasn’t strong, it was strong. How many times do I have to say it? Even though we faced demons in the Iron Mountains raid, will our power remain the same?”
“but… .”
“ah! Of course, it could still be the same. Well, a natural disaster could have happened out of nowhere and all the devils were gone, or a really strong comic book hero could have suddenly jumped out and helped. Yes?”
Jegal Haesol, who had said that, smiled and took out the communication bead again from his arms.
It seemed like another contact had come from the surface emitting a soft glow.
– It’s me. Jegal Haesol.
“oh! Shadow Queen! Seeing that you contacted me twice in one day, I guess Dongbu was quite excited too?”
– Shut up. This is no joke.
“yes?”
– now… .
“… … .”
After a while.
For the first time, the smile disappeared from Jegal Haesol’s face.
