Episode 241. Invading! (2)
After losing his home, Grisha stopped questioning his actions.
I never felt an ounce of guilt about harming others or ruining their lives.
He also showed his pettiness by getting angry when he was harmed, and his subordinates thought that revenge changes people.
The once faithful leader of the elven tribe became so mad. It was such a corrupting excuse that it took less than a second to understand.
But if you dig deeper, there’s one more thing you might not know.
The fact is that the vengeance that led to his downfall was amplified by the sudden intrusion of the thoughts of the god of destruction.
-This elf guy’s vessel has its limits.
The thought spoke, but it was not heard by the host, Grisha.
Without knowing anything, Grisha moved according to the will of that thought. Grisha unknowingly became a villain.
-Things have gone awry.
The thought form had been dormant within Grisha’s body until now, but now the time had come for it to exert its power.
Because you never know what harm may come to you from the variables that keep coming.
It is clear that the variable was created… .
“Radon Crowler. That was your son’s name, wasn’t it?”
Grisha, the boy’s name with a dark aura.
Scylla was appalled at the thought of her son’s name coming from such a hideous person.
This guy is after Radon.
“Don’t you dare touch my son! Even if it’s you… Ugh!”
At Grisha’s gesture, Scylla’s feet suddenly appeared.
Scylla, floating in the air, appeared to have her neck held by a transparent hand, while Grisha made a gesture as if he was lifting something with one hand.
“No one will come here. Even with the Duke’s help, you are just residents of this village.”
No matter how close I was to Gerard, his knight force was not there to protect my house.
Her husband, Lotus, went out to work, and her daughter, Amy, went out to play.
The only person left in this household now was Scylla.
In such a situation, burglarizing an empty house was a very easy task for Grisha.
“I will take you away like this and make you a vessel for the God of Destruction. Because I sense the same blood in you as Machia.”
“what?”
“I can tell. Who the roots of your family tree are.”
Now, because the idea of the God of Destruction was awakened, elements that had not been visible before began to appear.
Eyes that see through everything. The purity of human blood. That matched Machia’s purity.
Grisha, with the eyes of the God of Destruction, could see.
300 years ago, Emperor Machia became the Demon King, broke the taboo, and obtained special privileges.
He had two younger siblings.
His younger sister, Princess Mela, met an unjust death due to his betrayal, and his younger brother Rodan followed behind Makia in order to survive.
It is said that the royal family member named Rodan gave up his position and ran away, and lived happily ever after, leaving behind descendants.
“Rodan, younger brother of Makia. You are a descendant of that Rodan. Makia’s bloodline still remains.”
At first, he couldn’t understand it at all, but now Grisha could understand it.
Having obtained the eye of the God of Destruction, he began to be enthusiastic about the blood of Machia, who had obtained the privilege 300 years ago.
Enough to even recognize his bloodline.
“I, I… that Demon King’s….”
“It’s not a lie. The curse that is now upon you is clear evidence.”
“what?”
Skilla opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Because if you were to call her a curse, only one thing would come to mind.
“Are you talking about the ■ju of La■■?”
“Hehehe… I guess I can’t speak properly. Which means I can’t even convey it to others through text, right?”
“That means….”
“Yes, the curse placed on you is a phenomenon that occurred because Machia broke the taboo 300 years ago.”
It is said that in return for breaking that taboo, all of Makia’s blood relatives were cursed.
Maya, who was Machia’s daughter, also died because of the curse.
And Rodan, who gave up his position, would have also been cursed. However, his curse only manifested in the current generation, 300 years later.
Because of this, Scylla’s family, who were like descendants, and even her husband who had a relationship with her, were affected by the curse.
“The reason is…, probably because Machia died 300 years ago, the curse was postponed. Until the day he is possessed again and becomes active.”
It was about 16 years ago that Machia took over Emperor Carmine’s body.
It was at that time that rumors of the emperor’s changing moods began to spread. It was also because of those moods that Mirona was born.
It was around that time that the Crowler family was struck by the Liar’s Curse.
“You probably know this from this Magical Banquet. The current emperor is the Demon King of an old era.”
“That means….”
The reason the Crowler family was cursed was because of Machia.
It was said that they, who were of the same bloodline, were paying the price for breaking the taboo.
“And because he is of his blood, it means he can deal with it as a vessel for the God of Destruction.”
“…whoever he wants!”
“It’s no use. No one will come. Get out!”
“Ugh!”
The force strangling my neck was growing stronger.
Water began to flow out of Scylla’s mouth with such force that she could lose consciousness at any moment.
But the corners of her mouth were up. What was funny about this situation?
Here Grisha overlooked one fact.
It’s been so long that I forgot that she was an excellent shaman.
Bam!-
At that moment, a knock on the door was heard. Then, with the sound of armor shaking, knights burst into the house.
“No, how!”
There wasn’t a single security guard in sight guarding this house.
However, Grisha felt strange when he saw the knights suddenly barging in as if they had made a promise.
But the question could be quickly resolved, because there were many spirits attached to the knights.
“I see. I completely forgot about that.”
Skilla had been living in an elf village, learning magic.
If so, then if you have been practicing that spirit magic until now, it will be possible to apply it in many ways.
Then, it would not be difficult to send a rescue signal.
“You, Grisha High-End. The master of the Hwangma Tower who caused a big commotion at this magic banquet.”
Most of the people belonging to the Yellow Tower that he ruled were elves disguised as humans.
Currently, people related to the tower were being interrogated or pursued, and the tower owner Grisha’s whereabouts were also unknown.
Since he caused such an incident, it is only natural that a warrant for his arrest has been issued.
The knights who saw him like that aimed their spears and swords at Grisha as soon as they saw him.
“Alighieri is not enough… Are you planning to cause the same commotion in Silvertown now?”
Trancy, who was commanding the knights, said with a frown.
Then Grisha opened his eyes wide and had to quickly let go of Scylla.
This is because a fast slash that could not be seen with the naked eye came flying, and it had to be quickly blocked with defensive magic.
“Ugh!”
He had originally planned to take Scylla hostage, but the plan was overturned by a disaster.
Even though I clearly blocked it, I felt the bones in my hand shaking.
As expected, it was the skill of a knight from the Chainsilver family who had been by Gerard’s side for a long time.
There is no guarantee that you will seize the opportunity to win. It will be extremely disadvantageous if the troops behind you join in.
“Skilla… It doesn’t matter if it’s not you. If you’re the vessel of the God of Destruction, there are still some left.”
An ominous aura emanates from Grisha again.
Even Trancy was astonished at the power that seemed so inhuman.
“I will definitely… destroy Alighieri… and this world!”
With a shout that was almost a declaration of war, Grisha disappeared with a bang!
Judging from the flow of magic power, it appears that he teleported to a pre-marked area.
As soon as he disappeared, the knights became anxious about Scylla’s safety.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m fine. But….”
He was safe, but he could tell something more troublesome had happened.
Grisha is looking for the vessel of the God of Destruction. Its target is clearly someone who shares blood with Machia.
Scylla himself and his children.
“Amy and Radon are in danger!”
* * * * *
A new medium, a being that can become the vessel of the God of Destruction.
It was discovered in the ruins’ laboratory that it was none other than Machia himself, or his blood relative.
After gathering all the information there, I returned to my accommodation and told everyone.
“Are these all the materials found at the ruins?”
“huh.”
“Ha, I don’t know anything….”
Jenny said, looking over the materials that Ruska and I had brought.
For her, who had more experience with swords than with academics, it only gave her a headache, let alone understanding.
“uh…!”
At that time, Mary reacted greatly when she saw a picture containing a magic circle.
“What’s wrong, Mary? Do you understand something?”
“This…! This is…!”
I was secretly looking forward to it.
Mary is also a demon lord after all… .
“It looks like a picture of a bug! I wonder what it tastes like?”
I’m a fool for expecting that.
I feel a sense of guilt because I was fooled by that.
Ruska felt the same way, so she hit Mary’s chest hard!
“Ouch!”
“Stop being so silly. Okay?”
“Eek~”
“Anyway, I got a general idea of what was going on here.”
Jenny and Mary also found out some information, but Ruska and I found out first.
Research for the advent of the God of Destruction.
What is needed to make it happen is the blood of a taboo-breaker, or the remains of an evil spirit.
I was able to obtain a lot of information that was not available in the game.
`The bloodline of the one who broke the taboo…`
That meant none other than Machia, and if Machia’s bloodline existed here now,
It’s me.
I heard from Shaikhar when I went on a mission before. I am the blood relative of the Demon King from 300 years ago.
It’s obvious who the Demon King is without even looking.
“But… isn’t it okay to be at ease? That Demon King named Makia is completely restrained anyway. There’s no need to keep a close eye on him….”
Jenny is right. The moment that guy was caught, the resurrection of the God of Destruction was out of the question.
Of course, the Crowler family, including me, can also be used as vessels, but our family is protected by high-ranking officials.
And Scylla and Lotas themselves are not people with easy skills.
There is no more room to progress through Chapter 6.
For the remaining villains, it’s like their hands and feet are tied.
Because that Envy doesn’t exist in this world.
“oh!”
“Why all of a sudden?”
Suddenly, Ruska groaned, clutching her eyes.
I was worried because it was a reaction that felt like my eyes were being pricked by needles.
“Do your eyes hurt?”
“That’s… rather than saying my eyes are stinging, I should say it’s like my head is aching.”
“Are your eyes sore or your head hurting?”
“I don’t know.”
There’s no way someone would take such a step unless they were poked in the eye.
It seemed like things had quieted down a bit, but Ruska still had her eyes covered.
It seemed like he was still in pain. Jenny, who saw that, felt sorry for him and approached Ruska.
“Should I blow on you? I heard from my mom that if you get something in your eye, blowing on it is the best.”
“I don’t need blood. And it’s a burden, so get out of here.”
“Don’t be so sad.”
“Then…, we have to take it easy.”
The two girls put their faces close to each other.
It seemed like a place where men would never be allowed, so I stayed as far away as possible.
Ruska opened her eyes wide and Jenny brought her mouth close to it.
The distance was so close that Ruska blushing looked kind of cute.
and….
Hooooooo-
A gust of wind blew from Jenny’s mouth.
Ruska felt comfortable with the gentle breeze that was just right for a walk.
It was a pleasant breeze to breathe. The wind was as delicate as a girl.
If only the spit hadn’t splattered… .
“Ouch, oh, oh, oh!”
“Huh? What’s wrong?”
A spit that came with the wind splattered onto Ruska’s eyes.
“My, my eyes! My nooooooooo!!”
At first I blew gently, but later I failed to control my strength and ended up spitting out saliva.
At this, Ruska grabbed his eyes and shouted.
“I told you to take it easy! You piece of shit!”
“Hey! Isn’t that too harsh?”
“Then why don’t you try it too!”
Ruska grabbed Jenny’s shoulder to repay her kindness.
In order not to be pushed there, Jenny also grabs Ruska’s shoulder.
and….
“Kuaaaahh …
“Kyaaaaah!!”
A fight between beasts broke out.
It was a mud fight, to be exact.
Mary watched it and picked at the bugs crawling on the floor.
It also seems a bit novel in that you eat bugs instead of popcorn… .
Boom boom!-
At that moment, the two beasts stopped fighting at the sound of something coming from outside the door.
And then the door opened wide and a familiar face appeared.
“uh?”
“you are….”
Totema Endhole Papiyas.
He was one of those people who would pop up whenever you forgot about him.
“Gasp…, gasp…. Everyone… you’re here.”
I don’t know how he got here, but he was out of breath as if he was looking for us.
In particular, his gaze was focused on Ruska.
“I came looking for you all because I have something urgent to tell you.”
“What on earth are you talking about?”
“In the Kingdom of Papyrus… again…!”
We are capturing the divine beasts that have gathered throughout the continent.
This is what he wanted to say.
Ruska furrowed her brows at the word “shinsoo.”
Surviving as an Academy Fraudster
