Episode 349. The Desert King’s Tomb
“at las.”
It took quite some time, but I was able to enter the Desert King’s tomb.
‘They say it’s the Desert King’s treasure, but I don’t think I’ll need much right now. Let’s find the most important thing, the Shield of Purification. We’ll see the rest and then decide.’
But the joy was short-lived.
A jet-black flame poured down in front of Ethan.
Ethan raised his Frost Sword to extinguish the flames, but he felt movement beside him and stopped drawing his sword.
Shaaaaah-!
“Are you okay?”
Shine One blocked the flames with his huge shield. However, he could not lower the shield because the flames continued to pour out.
“It’s okay. But what is this flame? There must be legacies left by the Desert King in this tomb. Is this flame one of those legacies?”
“No, no. Something is strange! As you said, this is the place where His Majesty left his legacy, considering it to be his last bastion. There’s no way he would burn the person who came to get his legacy like this. Could it be that the evil spirit that was released from the seal is inside?”
Then a rumbling sound was heard from inside.
Shine One swung his huge shield with great force. Black flames were pushed out by the shield and then disappeared.
Soon, as Shine One removed the giant shield, the inside that had been obscured by flames began to become visible.
A lot of luminous stones.
And thanks to the fire burning in the center, the tomb of the Desert King was clearly visible.
It was literally a place full of treasures.
The Desert King had prepared various equipment and treasures in preparation for the evil spirits that would later be released from their seals. And that wasn’t all. On one side, there was even a bookshelf filled with various magic books and technical books.
“What is this… … Why is there a person in here?”
But there was someone sitting in the middle of those treasures. Shine One was quite embarrassed.
“I wondered when you would come in. I heard that you made many preparations here to block our god. So I thought that if our god were to be released, this would be the first place you would come to.”
He was a man with jet-black hair that reached down to his back. He also had a beard that was equally long.
Sharp eyes and protruding fangs. It was difficult to regard the appearance as human.
Kuung-!
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard behind me.
The entrance that Ethan and Shine One had forced their way through was closing.
Kugugugugugu-!
In an instant, the entrance through which the two people had entered closed.
It was like a completely sealed room.
“Who are you! Who are you to be in here!”
Shine One shouted in alarm, but the man didn’t seem to care much about it and continued with what he wanted to say.
“I’ve been waiting. The first one to come in will be the biggest obstacle to our god.”
The man laughed.
“To keep you from ever getting out of there. Just sit here helplessly! While you ponder who I am and how I got in here!”
The man who had been smiling quietly started laughing like crazy, shaking his shoulders.
Shine One turned around urgently and approached the door. However, even though he swung his sword and struck with his shield, the closed door did not budge.
Of course. This place was built very solidly. It was designed not only to block outsiders from entering, but also to never be damaged.
BAM-! BAM-!
No matter how hard I hit it, it wouldn’t have any effect.
Even though Shine One knew that fact, he couldn’t stop his attacks.
“I’m falling into a trap… … a trap! Damn it.”
Shine One clicked his tongue. He never thought there would be such a trap.
“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.”
He trembled with remorse.
But with a deep breath, I quickly regained my composure.
The situation has already occurred. If so, we must do our best to resolve it.
Shine One put off his complaints until later.
“Who are you? How did you get in here?”
The tomb was guarded tightly. No one was allowed inside. That was certain.
“It’s stupid. It’s useless to just block the front. There are many ways in the world. If the direct attack doesn’t work, you can just take a detour in another direction.”
Shaaaak-.
A pitch-black aura emanated from him.
“Anyway, this is the end. I didn’t know the watchman would come in too. I caught a really big fish. This is it.”
He chuckled.
“I changed my mind. I’ll tell you everything. It’s going to be boring from now on.”
Then he stood up from his seat and spread his hands in an exaggerated gesture, like an actor in a play.
It was a confident action, as if he was certain that neither he nor they would be able to go out anyway.
“I am a servant of the God of the Dark Night. I am an agent who has received the power of the God of the Night.”
God of the dark night.
That meant evil spirit.
“There is a representative for such a thing as an evil spirit?”
He was not taken in by provocative words.
“No matter how much you try to provoke me with those words, I won’t get caught. I’m in a really good mood right now.”
Then he took out the hammer from his waistband and aimed it at Shine One.
Bam-!
Soon, the evil spirit’s representative stomped hard on the ground and shot out like an arrow, trying to strike Shine One.
The hammer, imbued with a pitch-black aura, seemed ready to shatter the shield.
Kyaang-!
But Shine One blocked the bastard’s attack with his shield.
“Ethan Wickers! The equipment I’ve gathered here is effective against evil spirits! Feel free to use it! We can use it to escape together! Don’t worry! And His Majesty has prepared for this situation as well!”
Shine One shouted as he stretched out his hand and pointed to the center.
There was a small mound there, and a sword was stuck in it.
It looked like a mythical weapon, and once it was drawn, it seemed like everything would be solved.
When Ethan, who had confirmed it, tried to move, the evil spirit’s agent began to laugh loudly.
“Hahahahahahaha-! Did you think I would just lock you up quietly?”
The moment the agent of the evil spirit put away his hammer and shouted, Shine One picked up a dagger that was nearby.
“Ugh!?”
And at the same time, he let out a painful groan. Something was strange. He only grabbed one of the weapons on the floor, but he felt an incredible amount of pain.
The weapons here are ones the Desert King collected to combat the evil gods.
He also knew it well, adding his own strength.
I don’t remember putting anything like a cursed weapon in here.
“A curse… …? Why, why a curse.”
It was embarrassing. Shine One hurriedly picked up another weapon.
This time it was a spear. As soon as I grabbed the spear, a signal came.
“Ugh!”
This time, the pain was even more intense.
I only held it for a moment, but my hand felt as if it was burning. Not only that, the heat was rising up through my hand and up to my neck.
“shit!”
The cause was unknown, but it was quite dangerous.
Shine One took up his sword and cut off the arm.
Then I broke the armor and checked its condition.
A fiery red aura rose up through the hand that had been holding the spear. It looked like a burn, or a tattoo.
If I hadn’t cut it off, that aura would have penetrated all the way to my head.
Of course, that doesn’t mean you’ll die, but you’ll probably be out of your mind for a while.
“You might think it’s a curse, but to be precise, it’s not a curse.”
The evil spirit’s agent laughed as if he found it really funny.
I felt a strong sense of elation at the thought that I had crushed the last hope.
“Now, what are we going to do? You can’t get out of here anyway. You can’t use the Desert King’s treasures here. Coincidentally, I’m also bored until our god opens this place again. I want to live. So don’t be bored, make it fun.”
The agent of the evil spirit tightened his grip on the hammer.
That watchman has already lost his power. It won’t be fun to play with him any longer.
Now, it seemed like the humans brought by the watchman would be more fun.
“I feel… a special power from you. A very vicious and dirty power.”
I even felt a force that I shouldn’t have felt.
“Our God said that he would destroy everything. Humans are so weak. They always try to hide their weakness. So he scratched that part and got exactly what he wanted. The Moon Force that protects humans! Who would have thought that humans would abandon and oppress them with their own hands?”
How stupid! How stupid!
The agent of the evil spirit laughed bitterly and aimed his hammer at Ethan. Then, in an instant, he rushed forward.
“But seeing as how they’re still barely surviving, Moon Force is indeed strong. But this is the end. Oh, but don’t think about dying to find comfort. I won’t kill you until everything is over.”
Kyaang-!
The agent of the evil spirit swung his hammer at incredible speed.
“……Ohh.”
But the hammer never reached Ethan.
It was because Ethan was blocked by the frost sword he had pulled out.
Shaaaaah-.
Beyond simply blocking it, the cold air flowing out of the Frost Sword froze the hammer. It seemed as if it would instantly freeze even the evil spirit’s agent holding the hammer.
The evil spirit’s agent spun around and took a big step back.
One of my arms felt numb, but I quickly shook it off with a smile.
“Okay. This is fun, this is fun. At this rate, there’s no time to get bored!”
“… … Just hold on a little longer!”
Shine One shouted. The arm will be attached quickly. If the arm is attached, the two of them can fight. If so, it was a situation worth trying.
It was a difficult situation, but defeating the enemy was the top priority.
It’s quite unfortunate that the Desert King’s treasures are cursed, but there’s nothing we can do about it.
We must defeat the author, go outside, and stop the evil spirit.
Shine One’s mind became quite complicated.
He kept thinking about how to get out of here.
Ethan, on the other hand, didn’t see the situation as complicated.
“Shine One, you told me to grab that sword earlier, right? Is that the key to solving this situation?”
“It’s the sword that Your Majesty used! It has a hidden function! However… … it is cursed and cannot be used. So we must find another way!”
Shine One said urgently.
“The Desert King must have been quite meticulous. I thought he would have devised such a method. But he shouldn’t have gathered them all in one place like this. Look. They all became useless all at once.”
The evil spirit’s agent, who had been spinning the axe round and round, swung the axe around.
Kyaang-!
Ethan swung his axe and sped towards the evil spirit’s agent.
“I’m trying to narrow the gap… … .”
The evil spirit’s agent, judging that the enemy was rushing at him, swung his axe hard.
Boohoo-!
But his axe cut through the air. Ethan was not the agent of the evil spirit, but was behind him.
“Ethan Wickers! This is a powerful curse! Do not touch it… … .”
Shine One shouted, grabbing one arm.
But Ethan put his hand on the sword without hesitation.
and.
-The effect of the Master of Martial Arts is activated!
Swish-!
Pulled out.
“……what?”
The evil spirit’s agent made a dumbfounded expression.
“Why was that chosen?”
