Side story episode 4.
Forgotten War, Battle to Suppress the Spider Lord (4)
“They say that at the main peak of the Mountains of Madness, there is an ancient palace called Cheonsu-gung (天守宮) or Cheonsu-seong (天守城).”
I drew mountain peaks and structures on the snow using tree branches.
Yeah, I tried to draw it… … .
But I couldn’t. This is because I felt extremely passionate gazes from both sides.
“why? What’s the problem, Miria? “Miss, why are you acting like this earlier?”
Almost at the same time, Miria and Kasena turned their gazes from glaring at me.
He didn’t forget to mix in a nasal sound that clearly goes deeper than the history of human linguistics.
What are you so dissatisfied with?
Rem said as I turned my head to see if I could receive support fire from my colleagues.
“trash.”
“Threck, threck, shit threck. Suicide is urgent.”
Fifi said.
Valencidis said with his characteristic unpleasant sarcasm.
“A libertine always pays the price for messing around with his lower body.”
Why does it happen like that?
Bart said.
“I don’t have time for this.”
As expected, the only companion I could trust after living in this world for a long time was Bart. He decided to continue his explanation.
“There are countless spaces in Cheonsu Palace, and one of them leads to the old throne. “It’s the place where the Spider Lord is sealed.”
“Are there any guards?”
“In the future that Yeri Serika saw, the younger brother was already guarding the palace.”
“My younger brother… … “Obonwi appears here again.”
“Namdongja said that he can adjust the space of Cheonsu Palace as he wants. They say you can make it into a maze. “He’s been protecting the palace since historical times, so it’s only natural that he has power.”
“So what are we going to do?”
“If you use this key spider, a portal leading directly to Cheonsu Palace will open. There, you guys lure Nam Dong-dong.”
Silence for a moment.
Valencidis raised his left eyebrow.
“Are you telling me to play a game of tag to the death against an old noble?”
“Tagger, tag, tag.”
“Hey, trash. “Isn’t it the end if you deal with the younger brother just like you caught the girl?”
“no. If the younger brother feels the threat of death, there is a risk that space itself will be distorted and the castle sealed off. And why am I trash?”
Bart scratched his forehead.
“What do you plan on doing?”
“I will find a secret room, a throne. So I will break the spider lord’s seal.”
“Are you really going to do that?”
It took a great deal of effort to answer that question.
I thought I was properly prepared, but my hands were shaking. When she remembered that nightmare, she broke into a cold sweat.
but… … This is the only way.
“The Spider Lord is not yet at full strength. When the power is not perfect, break the seal and deal with it. So, it will lie dormant for another thousand years.”
It was then that Miria, who had been silently protesting her dissatisfaction, sighed.
“You are clearly aware of what you are trying to do, right?”
“of course.”
“No, I don’t think so. Have you ever thought about who will face the king if you fail? “The anxiety that the end seems to be hastening doesn’t go away.”
Rem also clicked his tongue with a clasp on the back of his head.
“Did you know that some say that the Demonic Castle is waiting for the seal to be broken because he wants to test his strength by fighting against the Spider Lord?”
What, how and where should I start?
Wouldn’t it be better to convey my sincerity rather than describe my reasons with grandiose rhetoric?
“We are living at the end of a golden age. Will there ever come a day in the future when people with as much power as we have now will gather in one place? “When was humanity so united?”
“… … .”
“It will definitely come. He will come. But then the abyss will also unite and swallow the world. Who can stop that? Even if we are in that time zone.”
“… … .”
“We have to do this now. This is definitely the reason why I, and you, were given power. “It’s not a coincidence.”
The basis for judgment was presented.
Lastly, convey your sincerity.
“Above all, Aki, Nen, Mir… … I want to give those children time to grow into sparks of a new era. “Please, everyone, give us your strength.”
There was silence inside the cave.
In everyone’s mind, a fight with the old king, only talked about in legends, would have been unfolding.
Aren’t the Lords of the Abyss the enemy that
Rem, who was exchanging glances with other colleagues, suddenly snorted.
“What, you should have said that already. “Why did you make such a long introduction?”
As I looked at my colleagues as if to confirm what I meant, each of them expressed their agreement through body language.
“If it’s for Aki, there are no theories.”
“I want to see that stupid whelp grow up. “At least it will be better than now.”
“Stupid, stupid, stupid.”
“What are you talking about? How beautifully Aki has grown up now. He’s already as tall as me. “The days of the whelp are over.”
“really?”

For the first time, Kasena spoke kindly to Miria, and Miria smiled broadly as if she was bragging about her child.
“That’s right. “Speak politely now.”
“Wow, I’d like to see it.”
For a moment, tears came to my eyes, but it was not time to shed them yet.
These tears will be shed when we raise a toast of joy after everything is over.
Now is the time to fight the old gods.
* * *
“Your Majesty, all troops have been deployed to the fortress of Seolyeong General.”
The person who reported so was Grand Duke Duren, Elector of the North.
Duren had issued a summons to all the horsemen’s families in the North and brought their soldiers.
Nevertheless, the wall’s defense line was only a single layer. Even if the wall is long, it is too long.
I don’t know if the central and southern armies will join in time… … .
“Deployment, arrangement, arrangement.”
Saia, the Archduke’s sun parrot, barked. The Duren family’s emblem is a phoenix, and sun parrots have been bred and distributed to members since ancient times.
“That’s great. “Commander, what is the status of Harbadonia?”
“Beacon fires began to rise from the front line. The great army of the abyss, led by Hu Ning, began to advance all at once.”
“How long does it take?”
“Normally, it will arrive within a day, but if you hurry, it will arrive within half a day.”
A despairing silence swept through the control room. The emperor, who was silently tapping the edge of the table, spoke.
“Have you heard from Yonghyeon?”
At about half the time he asked that question, a liaison officer ran into the control room and took action.
“Check the red smoke screen from the east! This is the signal that Yonghyeon is starting this operation.”
Emperor Raida Eijin let out a trembling breath and straightened his back.
“It will be a fight to see whether we can hold out until Yonghyeon finishes his work.”
* * *
At the northern end of Harbadonia, there is the Eternal Mountain Range, which stretches out without stopping.
The name of that terrible land that even beasts are afraid of is the Mountains of Madness.
At the highest peak of the mountain range, the Eternal Palace, built from the remains of a charnel house, breathes quietly.
Cheonsu Palace (天手宮).
Cheonsu Palace stands tall with a majesty and heavenly beauty worthy of a monarch who commanded the three thousand worlds.
But unlike the beauty on the outside, the inside had changed horribly.
This eternal graveyard was littered with white skeletons of unknown ages, and here and there spiders were crushing the skulls and greedily chewing them.
Monsters with pale, long limbs, smooth bodies without any hair, and dozens of blinking eyeballs.
However, in this world, beings wearing human masks were more feared than simple monsters.
“You are uninvited guests. This is the residence of a great king, and anyone who dares to step into it is punished by having their ankles cut off, regardless of their status.”
Alcuta, the 5th in the five main rankings, appeared with an ominous and unpleasant fog in tow.
It was a fog like a spider web.
The light of the lamp was caught in the fog and could not go any further, just like a fire moth caught in a spider’s web and flapping its wings feebly.
“This is meaningless resistance. Surrender. “Right now, you can only discuss sin with one ankle.”
The younger brother took the form of a young boy, and unlike the extremely arrogant Shar’kas, he even gave off a polite feeling.
However, it is only a difference in wording, and the intention of viewing humans as lower than insects is not different.
Alcuta’s fog corrupted even the air, making it difficult to breathe.
A bitter, disgusting, wet taste… … .
As the air entered my lungs, I felt like an unknown entity was grabbing my insides.
“Okay then!”
As the comrades scattered in five different directions, Alcuta was seen sighing through the fog.
“It was a mistake to be polite to insignificant beings.”
Just the sound of snapping fingers.
The fog trembled and wriggled like a living thing… … The surrounding scenery began to change completely.
okay.
They’re changing the structure of the palace.
It’s just as Jericelica said.
As the fog cleared, a colonnade with enchanting decorations could be seen stretching out ahead.
The structures built for giant monsters, not humans, were so huge that you would want to turn away from the pillars to the flagstones.
It is impossible to search these places one by one.
“Come out, Lu Diyan.”
It was born in the palm of one’s hand and shattered the rotating magic square.
Butterflies of light, Ludiens, flew up, scattering dazzling particles.
The number is 127.
“Hurry, Throne of the Abyss.”
The waiting time was a series of horrors.
I can hear you… … .
Sometimes from far away.
Sometimes not far away.
The sound of something exploding, the cry of a tearing monster, the sound of something heavy falling… … .
As soon as a sound was heard, the structure of the palace changed with the sound of a finger snapping.
Just right.
At one point, we moved to the space where Cassena was cornered.
“you are… … .」
Just as my heart skipped a beat, Alcuta snapped his fingers and the space changed again.
“I can smell the blood of the woman. “I have figured out the whole story of this incident.”
Just right.
From then on, the structure of the palace became a maze-like mess and began to confuse my mind.
Just right. Front becomes back, exactly, top becomes bottom… … .
“This is the space the king entrusted to me.”
Shit. Brother, this guy is trying to kick you out of the palace.
Sweat flowed like rain.
Hurry up, Lu Diyan. Please hurry.
The moment the place of sealing closes, all efforts made so far will be in vain.
“Nothing can exist without my permission!”
Just right.
Now I had to move my body too.
A mural of a spider weaving numerous humans into a web and eating them alive was right in front of my eyes.
The entire palace moves like a living thing to exclude foreign substances.
Just right.
hurry.
hurry.
Hurry up!
Just right.
A Ludiyan was seen flying from afar, but as soon as that happened, the space changed again.
This is the basement… … ?
Because it was a dark space, I could clearly see Lu Diyan breaking through the darkness and landing on my shoulder.
“What are you planning here?”
Just right.
The sound of snapping fingers again.
As the space changed again, I automatically became separated from Lu Diyan, who was sitting next to me.
“Ah, the purpose is unclear, but it will be enough to isolate you from that evil spell.”
I guess he’s an old noble, I have a really good feeling about it… … .
But I won.
What allowed the Lu Diyans to figure out was spatial coordinates. These are the spatial coordinates where the king’s secret room is located.
“Ludien, open the portal!”
When I opened the dimensional space, I saw a welcome face in the newly changed space.
“lane?”
Miria’s face was flushed from running around so quickly and she was breathing white breath.
“Dimension? this!”
After the battle with Xernix, I have been studying dimensional magic to maximize Belle Curious’ power.
“Did you find the location?”
Now that we know the spatial coordinates so clearly, covering short distances is not a problem.
And Jericelica said:
There is only one room that Alcuta cannot control, and that is the Spider Lord’s secret room.
The passage leading to the secret room can be controlled at will, and the door can be closed, but the inner space cannot be controlled.
Before Alcuta changed space, he threw himself into an open dimension. To tell the truth, I was thrown away.
At that moment, it was as if he was being pushed by Miria, who amplified her leg power and instantly closed the distance… … .
The feeling of being submerged in a lukewarm swamp overtakes my entire body.
As I came out of that disgusting feeling, a vast space spread out as if overwhelming my vision.
The old king’s palace.
The surrounding pillars, which seemed to require thirty men to hold hands, stretched high up to the endless roof.
“Miriah, why did you follow me!”
“Why! “It’s so absurd, were you really planning on going alone?”
“Yeah… … .”
“If you die, I die too.”
At the far end, where the pillars spread out in orderly pairs, a spider-foot throne was visible.
It was truly disgusting to see spider feet writhing like living creatures on the backrest of the high, distant throne.
And there were three swords sticking into the backrest, glowing.
“This is not the time to argue. let’s go.”
As they ran side by side in front of the throne, Miria muttered absentmindedly.
“Sharylion… … ?”
It felt like Surpin was more impressed than Miria, and he was breathing more intensely than usual.
“Charillion?”
“The true holy sword Sharillion! The twelve extreme star swords currently used by the Faequariers are all manufactured in imitation of the true sword. And Shirpin is an imitation of Sharillion.”
“What about the other two?”
“maybe… … The long sword will be Leavelden and the attitude will be Galadiel. The holy swords used by the leading warrior Alkaios. “He said he took two sacks by himself.”
Karenden used three true swords as sealing wedges…? … .
Have I really done something that cannot be undone?
No, no. All the miscreants are already waking up. It was just a matter of time.
“Miriah, take a step back.”
After wiping my hands shaking with chills and cold sweat on the hem of my clothes several times, I put my hands together and faced the truth.
“Asura Real Soul Sutra.”
Again, the light takes on a great form and brightens the darkness.
The three-headed dragon descended, clearing away the darkness of the secret room.
While interpreting the sealing circle with Belle Curious, I kept Karenden’s knowledge in my head.
“Asura, take out the wedge!”
The moment Asura grabbed the hilts of the swords of Sharillion, Rivelden, and Galadiel, the languages of the gods suddenly unfolded before his eyes in a complex three-layered form.
[Verifying identity… … .]
[MT-0, Karenden. Confirmed.]
– Transfer of logical system control authority.
As soon as the language appeared, a flash of light occurred, and sparks flew from Asura’s hand holding the sword.
Asura roared in pain, but he had already removed the three swords from his back.
The moment the holy swords were pulled from the throne.
Together… … .
The seal began to rotate precisely, as if a lock was being unlocked with a key.
At the same time, a disgusting black fog rose from the gap where the holy sword was inserted.
It was a shame because Asura came out and covered Miria’s body. The heat was so high that it melted the body in an instant.
And the gap.
The physical gap suddenly turned into a dimensional gap.
The gap slowly grew larger and now reached the high roof of the palace.
Ah, the madness.
The ruler of that primal madness.
A transcendent being that blurs all light and flattens even darkness and fog.
Are you trying to wake up from a thousand-year sleep and return to this world again?
I could feel Miria’s hands trembling as they held each other.
Maybe it’s my tremors.
As we took deep breaths, we felt a vast presence weighing down our entire bodies.
Chang, Chang, Chang, Chang, Chang… … !
With the sound of a chain breaking, the first thing to pop out of the gap was a leg.
I don’t know if it can be called a leg, but at first glance it looked like a spider’s foot, but it was actually a human being.
It was a nightmare of thousands of people tied together, squirming and groaning disgustingly like insects.
Gurgling… … .
From the cosmic cemetery, corpses, bones, and the less-dead, many eons old, were pouring out in a sticky manner.
Alas, panic runs rampant, madness explodes, and fear boils over.
My breathing is distorted.
The fur all over my body stands up.
Surpin emitted explosive, hostile light, but the overwhelming darkness made even such light seem feeble.
The forgotten king, with the legend of having destroyed the entire world, tore off the deck of seals and returned to his throne.
In the face of absolute horror.
I put my hands together again. He was praying with his hands together. Earnestly, desperately.
Now, let this fight, the hundred-year journey of my life, end here.
“Rain, something is strange!”
It was that moment.
The dimension at my feet was completely torn apart, and countless spider webs rose up like snakes.
“!”
Immediately Asura’s light cut out the cobwebs, but no, what is this… … ?
I couldn’t believe my eyes.
As soon as it is cut, the two ends come back together tightly. Like a wound healing.
This… … Super fast playback?
Nonsense.
Spider silk regenerates very quickly?
For a moment of panic, I tried to push Miria away, and Miria also tried to push me away. Therefore, the result was that the two joined hands.
The same judgment is made in moments of crisis… … .
Before I could finish that thought, a spider web wrapped around our bodies and Asura and dragged us down the dimensional rift.
* * *
“My joy is boundless at seeing you again, my lord.”
The younger brother Alcuta bowed down on one knee politely and very gracefully.
“The royal palace has been defiled due to lack of trust. Please punish this disloyalty.”
The gaze of the devil, who caressed the dimension and the pitiful moonlight and made it tremble, landed on Alcuta.
A human figure rose above the head of the disgusting monster, which was letting out terrible groans.
It was Ashron, the devourer of the world, who was even more elegant, beautiful and brilliant than the nobles of old.
“You had a hard time pretending to be fooled by the devils’ foolishness, Alcuta.”
Alcuta bowed his head even more.
“Everything is as predicted by His Majesty. “God simply did what he said.”
“Where are the other miscellaneous things?”
“It appears that there is a magician who wields the abyss in an unholy way. “It opened up space and ran away.”
“What about Jayun?”
“According to the will of the lord, Hu Xing is currently leading the army to attack the Unholy Wall.”
Ashron raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction. Even in that appearance, there was a heavenly beauty.
“Now, let’s start again. A crazy banquet. “I will once again color the three thousand worlds with the colors of burden.”
