Episode 129
When Shar’kas stretched out his right hand, disgusting spider webs rose not only from his fingertips but also from his back and waist, wiggling like wings and tails.
Shar’kath did not rush, nor did he show signs of impatience. I just walked while maintaining the dignity of the old royal family.
But no one could stop the advance. In fact, except for a few people, they were so overcome with primal fear that they couldn’t even move.
“The light of the island, Shalwen.”
Prisvia personally excavated the relics of the gods, learned how to use them, equipped them, and used them.
The nuclear reactor that appears now as Prisvia’s mechanical breastplate opens left and right is one of those relics. The white-burning nuclear reactor emitted dazzling light in a straight line.
It was a legendary light that burned everything and reduced everything to ashes, but when Shar’kas waved his hand once… … Hmm?
Chachachachachachachachang────!
The light reflected here and there along a dozen strands of spider webs, and three Amon warriors and an adventurer were pierced by the light and died instantly.
“!”
Prisvia’s eyes widened slightly. Amazing, is that spider web capable of repelling the entire concept of power?
‘Huh, you’ll know when you check it yourself.’
Prisvia lunged at Shar’kas, dodging and dodging the spider webs that stretched out like tentacles.
“Then what if it’s close range?”
He tried to hit Baek Doryeong’s head with his foot, but was caught in vain by Shar’kas’ lightly extended hand.
However, as if even that had been Prisvia’s plan, the light focused on the gun port that emerged as the cover from the knee gaiters was opened.
“Baptism of dawn light, Garinbella.”
Oh, oh oh… … While warriors and adventurers admired his expert fighting sense.
“It’s insignificant. A half-creature created by Karenden.”
Prisvia’s legs, entangled in Shar’kas’ web, were forcibly twisted with a cracking sound at the hip joint, and the gun was aimed at Prisvia.
Prisbia’s body would have been destroyed by the light fired, burning the atmosphere.
If only Prisvia hadn’t rolled backwards at that very moment, amputating her leg. Her blood was pumping and her legs were blown off.
“All right, Captain!”
As the adventurers rushed forward to protect her, Shar’kas raised his eyebrows as if he had just remembered something very interesting.
“Okay, after a long time, let’s play soldiers.”
Then, suddenly, half of the warriors and adventurers surrounding Baekdoryeong seemed to be moving their joints in a stiff motion.
“… … ?”
“… … ?”
“… … ?”
The next moment, it began attacking those who had been friends, family, and colleagues just moments before. With a shocked expression.
They were warriors accustomed to fighting against the abyss, but in this current situation… … .
When you become dead, the expression disappears from your face. The skin of the whole body rots and becomes dry, and the signs of the king appear here and there on the body.
Therefore, you can defeat it without hesitation. Because I believe it is the way to rest.
But now this… … The thing that is attacking you right in front of you is definitely alive. It is a friend who is alive and retains reason.
“Ahahaha, it’s always spectacular… … !」
Amid Shar’kath’s evil laughter, the beastmen’s claws pierced their friend’s heart and their fangs bit into the nape of their comrade’s neck.
It was a hell, a hell so cruel and cruel that it was impossible to open your eyes and see.
Those controlled by spider webs continued their mad dash without stopping even though their joints were dislocated or misaligned due to excessive movements.
“Lord Alakish!”
When the red blood soaking the snowy field spewed out mist, Grypion finally placed Rain on the ground. To be exact, in front of Alakish.
“Re, Lane… … !”
Kasena, who had been watching the ridiculous scene with a possessed expression, let out a groan of despair when she saw the corpse of the boy whose heart had been pierced.
「Where, where are you… … “Rain, where is Raine’s forehead?”
Alakish’s vision had already turned black and he could not even distinguish his son-in-law.
Fifi flew in front of him with urgent and earnest wings, and guided Alakish’s hand to Raine’s bedside with the sound and heat.
In a final breath, Alakish touched his forehead to the dragon egg for the last time, bid farewell, and then placed his hand on Kasena’s head.
“Do not be sad, for this is the final mission of I, Alakish, appointed by Karenden… … .」
And after he looked up to the sky and said his final prayer, he kissed Lane’s forehead. That’s where the miracle began.

Did the gods think the same thing as they looked at the scenery called twilight?
When I opened my eyes, which I thought would never be able to open again, it was the twilight world that warmly bathed my vision.
After coming from a cold, almost colorless land to this land, my sense of reality fades… … I would like to say that, but it is quite unfamiliar land.
‘Are they the Red Mountains?’
At least we can say it’s similar… … Did I love this place so much that I even felt a sense of nostalgia for coming here at the last moment of my life?
Still, it’s not bad.
With the warm spring sunlight shining down, the trees quietly rustling, the bugs chirping, and the birds chirping, all felt like one harmony.
“It’s not you, it’s the scenery of Alakish’s hometown that he always cherished and yearned for.”
When the familiar voice returned and I turned around, I smiled involuntarily. Alakish was looking at me in the lonely twilight.
“I guess I liked Alakish a lot more than I thought.”
“hmm?”
“I really liked this story, perhaps because I have lived through more difficult times than it seems. The story goes that when a person dies, those who were there first come out to meet them.”
I would be lying if I said I never stayed up all night wondering who would come out.
If Lista had come out, there would have been a lot of noise, what kind of life did you live, who did you like, what places did you visit… … I would have been asked endless questions about this and that, so I would have gotten tired first.
If Friede had come out, I might have been surprised when he suddenly smiled and said, “You worked hard!” while exhaling cigarette smoke while chatting playfully.
If Keyes had come out, we would have laughed together for a long time even if we didn’t say anything. Just like she did when she met Fifi.
I thought it would be a bit difficult if Tureina came out. A former student of hers lived for over three hundred years, died, and accomplished greater feats than me. What does he have to say? They must have been ashamed of each other.
If the dean and the students from the school had come out together… … I may not have been able to hide my tears at that time.

“But Alakish came out. “I couldn’t have imagined it, but it’s still not that bad.”
When I remembered the things I couldn’t say and the things I couldn’t do in this life, it was true that I felt deep regret, but it was also true that I felt a strange sense of relief that it was all over.
It’s over now.
I guess I can go now too.
I quit because I didn’t know what I would hear if I had given up my life and followed in their footsteps, but if this is the end… … .
“Your face is full of regret about your past life.”
“… … .”
“Quit. “Because I haven’t lived long enough to have such regrets yet.”
He thought he was making a joke and laughed awkwardly, but there was no playfulness on Alakish’s face.
“You asked Alakish to go down south with you, right? Then I heard you… … I felt like I came back to life. “He had a dying heart.”
“yes… … ?”
“Going south with my daughter to my hometown where my people are. Just by dreaming of that, I was able to feel happiness for the first time in a long time, hehehe.”
When Alakish smiled brightly, for some reason, his eyes became red with pain as if his heart was being torn apart.
“This is a deal, Lane Ludwig. I give you my soul. “Instead, could you show my daughter her dream in reality?”
“Alakish, what now… … ?”
“It’s you. The only person I can entrust my daughter to is you. You were the only one who knew how to shed tears for the prisoners and who told me to go south with you. “Except for you, whom Karenden personally chose and called.”
After saying those words, the outline of Alakish turned around and became hazy like the fog in a dream.
No, not only Alakish, but the entire image of this twilight mountain range, the hometown Alakish had longed for his entire life, began to blur.
There, only my form was intact, and there I felt a strange sense of anxiety and urgently called out Alakish’s name.
“The name of Alakish’s daughter is Akiraea. She means freedom. She leaves everything to you now. So that she can live up to her name… … .」
When that voice came out of my mouth, the dream world disappeared as fleetingly as dawn fog, and the cruel snowy empire once again spread out into the vast, uncontrollable space.
“lane… … .”
Cassena’s tearful voice awakened my hearing.
The sight of Kassena sobbing, hugging the body of Alakish, who had closed his eyes and smiled comfortably, as if everything had been accomplished, awakened my vision.
And the warmth of Fifi landing on my shoulder, flapping its wings like crazy and rubbing my head awakened my sense of touch.
“ah… … .”
As I looked down blankly, I saw that the wound that had clearly pierced my heart had completely healed.
And inside, I could clearly feel my heart beating with a force I had never felt before.
The magic power circulating in the body was not as cold as freezing, but as hot as a flame. The core of overwhelming and absolute power that is not allowed to humans is flowing the energy of transcendence throughout the body.
As I pressed my chest with my right hand, which had clearly been cut off, the sad words of our relationship came out as quiet sobs.
“Alakish… … .”
At that very moment, a long line of flames was drawn in the air, and then it converged into a clear shape, revealing a mysterious appearance.
It was a stone cabinet with four rings symbolizing the four forms of flame, a four-hwan cabinet.
While the staff part was shiny and gray, like a pile of ashes, the metal part in the shape of a dragon glowed majestically golden like a living flame, then sparkled scarlet, and then rippled with crimson ripples.
Yeouiju (如意珠).
It is said that this is the power that Karenden instilled in the soul of the dragon race when he created it, and that the power contained therein is close to infinite.
The last step that the Payquirers took when modifying the human body was to receive this Yeouiju from the Hwangryong and inhabit it in their souls.
The moment when I carefully stretched out my hand, trembling with grief, and grabbed that noble soul.
“… … This time, let’s fight together.”
The primordial flame surged violently, burning away the dark clouds that had been showering endless blizzards on this ungodly empire and opening a path of light in the night sky.
「───?!」
Of course, the snow clouds that covered the sky were not a natural phenomenon, but a providence of power that came from madness.
It was not something that could be burned by human fire or pierced by mortal light.
Therefore, the moment he saw Raine walking out of the burst of flames, the smile disappeared from Shar’kath’s mouth and a thrill of war rose in his mind.
“You… … “How are you alive?”
The boy did not respond to that empty question. Instead, I just glanced around briefly.
With the eyes of a god with seven petals in full bloom.
Then, countless spider webs that were embroidering the air became entangled in flames… … The bodies of the warriors who committed the tragedy of fratricide fell to the ground.
‘My power disappeared in an instant… … ?’
It must have taken a reasonable amount of strength to burn down all those cobwebs, so why is there no sign of fatigue on that guy’s face?
I shouldn’t have been so embarrassed.
The boy who had driven the fiery stone into the ground should not have been given time to form the seal of transcendence.
“Constructing imagery.”
There are three beasts that are formed by clasping both hands together reverently.
La(羅).
Police.
Fire.
Just as light shines in a world of darkness, brightly colored lights begin to devour the colorless area that dominated this huge white world.
“Hwagyeong: Yuryangsejon (火警: 流量世尊).”
First, a huge amount of magical energy was concentrated at high speed, and a ring of flame centered on the blade spread out with a radius of 3 meters. And a fire rune engraved in the very center with sparks flying.
“That text clearly belongs to Karen Den… … ?」
The eight elements that form the basis of magic are fire, water, earth, wind, ice, iron, poison, and thunder. They all exist as runes themselves.
Combining magic with these runes, called ‘source runes’, grants transcendent attribute energy, a power that mortals could not dare to handle.
The only root rune that Rin could handle was Thunder, which was used for bloodletting, and even the difficulty of using Thunder was child’s play compared to Fire, the leading element of the four major elements.
‘This is because the amount of magical power required by the source is so enormous that it is unreasonable… … .’
The next moment, like fire spreading through oil, five triangles attached to the circle of fire emerged sequentially from the flames.
Yu (流).
Liang (量).
Three (世).
John.
Police.
For an instant, Shar’kath’s body froze as the powerfully burning, tongue-flicking primordial flames illuminated this dark and mysterious polar region into a night-world.
“Don’t miss it, Lane… … “Right now, I can smell the scent of fear from Hundred Blade Shar’kas!”
Grypion, who saw something in that series of actions, quickly shouted, and Kasena, who was staring blankly at the boy’s back, asked:
“The smell of fear?”
“It’s something that a frightened prey emits. “It’s something you shed just before running away!”
All mortal beings are mere creatures caught up in the flow of cause and effect.
The immortal being who turns the wheel of cause and effect gave Shar’kas the power to reign at the pinnacle of all ecology.
That is a firm truth that no one on this earth can deny… … Are you saying that I feel fear of such small things?
“Hehehehehehehe… … This is ridiculous. What’s wrong with things that are worse than bugs? Is this Shar’kas running away?”
Crackle, crackle, crackle… … Suddenly, four pairs of bones that looked like creepy spider feet protruded from Shar’kath’s back.
A foul-smelling slime oozed from the four pairs of spider feet and shimmered like an evil shadow.
At the same time, the disgusting and pale power of the absolute abyss exploded, paralyzing the consciousness of all mortals around it.
“If you come back to life once, you just have to kill him one more time. “It’s a simple problem.”
Primitive horror was before my eyes.
The fear took the form of a boy with slime that instantly corrupted and melted everything in the world.
A nobleman from a now-forgotten era who was given the power of transcendence by the old king… … .
“Close, Cheonnajimang (天羅蜘網).”
As the disgusting power of negativity breaks into countless strands and swirls around, the space trembles, heaven and earth melt, and Mother Nature wails.
If it had been before, I wouldn’t have been able to last even a second, but now I can see it. Now we can face that power.
In a feeling of omnipotence, as if I was swimming in a dream.
“Belle Curious.”
