Side Story Episode 7.
Forgotten War, Battle to Suppress the Spider Lord (7)
“What kind of trick did you pull?”
As Akirea faced Shar’kas, she felt a stream of unknown memories passing through her mind.
‘My body and head are dizzy.’
Every time I think of the source, the warmth and image that comes to mind has never been as violent as it is now.
It was that memory that brought him here.
He was clearly looking for his father, but a voice led him here.
– This way, Aki.
Akirea, who was holding her head and staggering for a moment, said.
“you… … “It’s in my memory.”
「… … ?」
“What on earth have you done? “Have you ever met me?”
It didn’t take long for Shar’kas to realize what had happened to Alakish, or rather, Akirea.
“Do you want to know?”
A wry smile appeared on the lips of Shar’kas, who began walking in a circle around Akirea.
“It seems like a sad memory is coming to mind. “Abandoned by your mother.”
“Aki, it’s a lie, don’t listen to that!”
“Your mother hated you. “I treated it like a piece of luggage and handed it over to humans whenever an urgent matter arose.”
Shar’kath’s young body began to expand to gigantic proportions, seething with disgusting substances.
“I don’t have a mother.”
“Hehehehehe, yes, you probably don’t want to acknowledge her as your mother. Because I abandoned you like that!”
The five heads roaring toward the stars are a product of madness… … .
The human-like body was large and stretched out in a nauseating manner, but the shape of the lower body, with its dozens of prongs, looked like that of a disgusting spider at first glance.
And, alas, aren’t the elements that make up the body all tangled together in a random way?
“That stupid thing died while hating you. Not surprising. “Because you stumbled, you ended up dying by my hands!”
In that storm of madness, that wave of madness, hundreds of demi-humans collapsed as their heads exploded.
Hundreds of people were also infected with mania, laughing maniacally and dancing while muttering bizarre tongues.
The intimidation of that transcendental figure was enough to make even Casena and Valencidis bend their knees, and the only one who could stand still was Akirea.
“It’s a lie, it’s a lie… … Aki, Alakish, Alakish is you… … .”
Kassena, who fell to the ground, was barely able to breathe and mumble, but could not form words.
Because I love you so much.
Because I love you more than my own life.
It’s just that I couldn’t be with you every time you were in danger, but I never abandoned you.
“I will personally comfort your sad heart of being abandoned.”
Akirea was knocked down in the snow by the spider’s foot, but soon stood up after falling.
A second spider’s foot immediately rose above it like a cliff and struck the ground, creating a fierce snow storm.
The tactic chosen by Shar’kas is quick action, which stems from deception tactics.
At that time, Akirea was unable to come to her senses due to the waterfall of unknown memories flooding in like a torrent of water.
‘Strange.’
I’ve never had anything like this before.
I’ve never had so many unknown memories invade my head.
Does it have something to do with that guy?
“If we leave it like this, Aki… … .”
At that time, Kasena barely got up and thought desperately.
Is there no way?
There is a way to protect Aki from Shar’kas’ lies, a way to let her know the fragment of that memory.
‘Like Alakish back then.’
In that moment, my eyes suddenly opened.
Despite the pressure pressing down on her entire body, she urgently spoke to Valencidis, who was treating Prisvia.
“Chairman, Isla, please bring Isla here!”
“Who is Isla?”
“Kasena, what are you doing…” … .”
“It’ll just take a moment. And anyway, if Aki loses, not only we but Isla will die too!”
Prisvia didn’t seem to like exposing Isla to danger, but eventually allowed it.
After receiving a general explanation from Kassena, Valencidis moved to the bridge of the Byeongseon Base.
After remanipulating the protection system that operates through Black Sheep Lin, we then moved to the laboratory.
An infant with white hair and dragon horns already sprouting was taken out of the central test tube.
The dragon in my arms was lighter than a leaf. Its eyelids trembled cautiously.
“If you take me outside like this, I’ll freeze to death…” … .”
Valencidis cast several spells to block the cold and wrapped the child’s body with his cloak before crossing the dimension again.
The battle between the transcendents was in full swing.
A feast of such mighty power that it feels like your body is being crushed.
Isla burst into tears, perhaps feeling instinctive fear.
Kassena took over Isla and cherished it. The crying didn’t stop.
“Please bring Aki here. And wait, it only takes a moment, so buy me some time. “If the Byeongseon base was manipulated like I said, the possibility is not out of the question.”
Is there really a way?
Valencidis stared at Casena for a moment, then nodded with a sigh.

“Wouldn’t it be better to order him to die? “It would be more convenient that way.”
The moment Valencidis made a humorous pun, Byeongseon Base transferred all power except emergency power to the combat system.
On the side of the barracks base, all the guns that were still operational aimed at Shar’kas… … .
A momentary loophole was created as numerous light bullets hit the body that was randomly trampling Akirea.
At that moment, Valencidis appeared and took Akirea and placed her down next to Kassena.
And then, using his excellent reverse magic and axial bone ball, he disguised himself as Akirea and returned to his original place.
Since their presence itself is different, their identity will soon be revealed, but they will be able to buy a very short period of time.
“Arki, listen carefully. Your mother kept thinking about you. “I gave everything to protect you.”
Kasena finally spoke out to Akirea, who was in disgrace, and to her benefactor’s daughter.
“I look forward to meeting you here, where my mission began… … I just kept walking. No matter how much I walk, my daily routine is the same. “I could have stopped walking.”
Unfortunately, very sadly, this is all I can do.
So you have to do your best.
It’s nothing compared to what Alakish did, but if it means conveying that feeling… … There is no one else who can do it for me.
“But Alakish couldn’t meet you in the end. It’s because of us. To protect me and Lane from that monster… … .”
“Alakish… … ?”
“Isla… … this child… … He’s your genetic younger brother. Because it was made from the cells of the same mother, Alakish. Now, would you like to give me a hug?”
Akirea blankly accepted Isla.
Then, like a lie, the crying stopped. Isla’s small hand held onto Aki’s finger tightly.
“Alakish wanted to hug you so much. “She always sang to me, and when we pressed our foreheads together she whispered something of her love.”
“… … .”
“I’ve done that to Isla several times. “Isla was really happy.”
After speaking up to that point, Kassena ran to the scene ahead where Valensidis was being killed by Shar’kas’ attack.
‘Alakish?’
At that time, Akirea looked down at Isla blankly.
I don’t know what it is.
Is it okay for me to be here now? Shouldn’t we go fight?
“Ma kiome…” … .”
At that time, Isla wriggled and muttered that. She was somehow familiar with her body odor and she smelled it.
Suddenly at that moment.
As if the dam of memories was collapsing.
Isla’s body odor was followed by the smell of firewood on a winter’s day, and then the smell of cold snow.
‘Ma kiome…’ … ?’
That language.
All those smells.
The warmth that comes from holding something dearly.
– Ma kiome!
Like looking into a broken mirror, memories that had been blurry became clearer.
‘Alakish.’
On a distant winter day, I hear the song I used to hear when I was lying in an egg.
I can feel the warmth that has always cherished me so much.
I hear a voice talking to me repeatedly, even though I couldn’t say anything.
Inside the egg, I didn’t know what that being was, but from the moment I came out of the egg, I loved my father who had the scent of that being.
The moment my father first met me, he cried and said, “It’s not me.”
My father always looked very sad when he said he was not his mother.
Even before they parted ways in
Until now, I didn’t know why.
– Akirea, you must know your origins. Our origin is Fire Dragon, but you have a different origin.
Snowflakes landed on my head.
In that quiet sound, the image of the mother hugging the baby dragon tightly and pressing their foreheads against each other filled my vision.
This is a dream.
A piece of the dream that Alakish wanted to enjoy at least once in his life, the inheritance of the dream.
– The void that exists in your heart will be filled when you know its source.
Mom, Ma kiome.
The one who had to be the first to hear the first sound of his life, the one who looked forward to that sound more than anyone else.
The name of that being, Alakish.
“Ma kiome.”
The source of my soul… … .
Imitating that fantasy, I hugged Isla in the same way and pressed our foreheads together.
Countless memories were woven and combined into one, and hot water flowed down both cheeks.
– Aki, whenever I tried to talk about your mom, my dad would always get angry and say it was me, so I couldn’t even talk about it… … I hope one day I can tell you about your great mother.
The sorrow of missing my hometown that I had harbored in my heart my whole life became joy, and joy soon turned into anger and murderous intent… … .
Next moment.
Transcendent flames exploded and surged, punching a hole in the sky where even the dark clouds were frozen.
So much so that Char’Kas, the White Doryeong, who was trying to finish off Kassena and Valensidis, looked back in shock.
“Shar’kas.”
The explosive heat was concentrated in one place and became the sun on the ground, brightening this dark frozen land.
That sun was Akirea.
The flames covering the entire body glowed dazzlingly. Furthermore, the horns and tail, which were still immature, were being expanded to resemble those of an adult.
The golden eyes burn more brilliantly and fiercely than any heart of fire.
“I will turn you into ashes right now.”
* * *
‘It doesn’t have the shape of a dragon. ‘You don’t know how?’
Shar’kath thought.
‘It has grown close to an adult, but it is still just a fluid.’
I am the body that defeated that bastard’s mother, the Holy Body. It’s a much easier opponent.
“Do you think you can achieve anything you say? Hehehe, I will raise it myself and teach it manners, just like I did with your mother!”
And the bridge, which had been lifted up as if filling the heavens and earth, plowed the ground and spider webs suppressed the air.
“24.”
however… … .
It’s fast. How is it so fast?
What happened to this abnormal speed?
“45.”
You’re dodging all my attacks by just a hair’s breadth? The moment my attack touches it, it disappears in a puff of smoke.
Even so, it is inevitable that it has no power when it is in a human body.
That’s funny.
Did they give up power and increase mobility?
“67.”
No, that’s not it. This guy is something… … I think the specifications themselves are different from the mother.
What is the identity of this intimidating feeling that makes my whole body tremble?
I can not admit it. This guy has a higher status than me?
“72.”
As she dodged, Akirea touched the fleshy body that Shar’kath used to attack with her palm.
What is engraved on the contact surface is a brand of power.
It was a power that burned as faintly but clearly as a candle, but Shar’kath could not handle it.
Because Akirea had protectors.
“If I watch someone being rude to that guy, dirt will get in my eyes. “To some crazy idiot daughter!”
The spider webs spreading in all directions to capture the red dragon were cut by the wind blade that tore through the dimension.
“These… … .」
The spider’s foot, which was trying to hit Valencidis, had its falling trajectory distorted by the telekinetic drop.
Although it cannot be completely overpowered.
Even if it cannot be completely blocked.
Of course I can provide this kind of assistance. Valencidis and Casena thought so.
“Chairman, hurry this way!”
This insignificant… … .
These bugs, who individually pose no threat, hide behind the dragon’s shadow.
“100.”
At that moment, the number of brand marks on Shar’kath’s massive body reached 100.
Akirea stopped dodging.
Standing with my feet firmly planted on the ground, I took a deep breath, twisted my ankles, twisted my waist, and transferred all the external and internal forces rotating inside and outside the body to my right fist.
“Aki, what are you doing! damage!”
That brand is a mark of magical power amplification.
When struck, the power that amplifies and explodes the concentrated power and blows everything in front.
A secret technique developed by the Tenhwa Sect to deliver the perfect final blow in a fight at zero distance.
That secret technique has now been completed to a state beyond the limit in Akirea’s hands.
Even the experts of the Heavenly Painting Sect could only use this brand. However, Akirea was a being that transcended humans from birth.
Kyukshin Yonghwa Fighting Technique.
Multiple poles.
With a violent explosion, the iron fist collided with the crushing spider feet.
That moment.
The first brand explodes.
The amplified power is transferred to the second brand.
The second brand explodes with the power of the first brand, and the enhanced explosive power spreads to the third brand, and so on, and so on… … .
This explosive power is increased a total of one hundred times.
The unprecedented light took away all light and shade, saturation and color from the world.
An explosion so powerful that the corneas of those watching were burned white and tinnitus rang in their ears.
The explosive flames covered the entire body of the previously titled monster in a dazzling and massive manner, even the frigid land beyond the monster.
Burbububububububung!
Due to the enormous heat, the nearby snowstorm completely died down, and the snow field that covered the ground melted all at once, turning into mud.
‘What is this…? … ?’
Valencidis blinked.
When it comes to flames, isn’t it far beyond the flame magic handled by Raine Ludwig? … .
‘I heard that I received two additional Yeouiju… … .’
It was truly overwhelming.
At that time, the baby dragon was able to bring out the true dragon’s power to that extent?
It makes no sense that an old noble could be overwhelmed like this.
“Aki, it’s not over yet!”
At the moment of explosion, was the main body thrown away?
Shar’kas, wearing a human body, escaped from the smoke and unleashed his will.
The spider’s web hit Akirea and made her roll around in the melted snow mud.
“This, this, is absolutely impossible, how on earth did this happen…?” … !」
That body was also close to its limit.
He was even more devastated than when he was caught off guard by Lane Ludwig.
Except for the left arm and head, no body parts remained.
‘Flame clinging to the body.’
A shiver ran from Cassena’s heart.
‘It’s because it eats away at your body over and over again until you burn the rest.’
That’s why Shar’kath had to cut off parts of his own body like that.
“If it is now… … !”
Cassena took off her hair tie.
What is engraved on that headband is a series of runes, and those runes are copied into the air.
At that moment, Shar’kath’s body was enveloped in a bubble of light.
「… … ?!
This is the Black Sun Karenden’s sealing technique that has been traditionally handed down in the Page family since the first Emitsa Page.
By combining it with the knowledge Kassena received from Alakish and Raine Ludwig, she created a stronger combination.
At a moment like this, lest something like Alakish happen.
Also, so that you don’t have to sacrifice someone by saying goodbye.
“Shar’kas! “You’re going to stuff me?”
A framework of steel emerged from inside the bubble and began to engulf Shar’kath’s body.
At that time, just like Alakish’s body.
As Shar’kath strained somewhere in his body to struggle, an intangible wedge formed inside the bubble pierced that joint.
“I’ll give it back exactly as it was said. “I will seal you away!”
Originally, he would not have been able to seal Shar’kas with his own immature powers. It must have been torn apart long ago.
“It’s revenge from ten years ago!”
But it is possible now.
Now that that arrogant bastard has suffered so much damage that he is embarrassed.
I was helpless before, but now I am!
「──────!」
Shar’kath shouted, but the elasticity inside the bell prevented him from reaching this point.
“what? I can not hear you!”
At that moment, the soap bubble exploded.
Shar’kath’s body and soul fell to the ground, covered in spikes of light, steel, and flame.
I thought the fingertips would twitch one last time, but as time passed, all movement disappeared.
The presence that had overwhelmed the surroundings also disappeared, and the son-in-law became quiet for a moment.
“… … .”
Akirea stepped in front of him and silently looked down at Shar’kath’s new tomb.
The flame that had been burning brilliantly outside the body slowly began to die down. The horns and tail also shrunk again.
What is that tender heart thinking right now? Are you telling Alakish that you have finished what you left unfinished?
Cassena hesitated because she didn’t know how to speak, but finally opened her lips.
“Aki… … .”
“I’m not sad.”
“huh?”
“The memories are clearer. Mom was always by Aki’s side. “Every time she was with her dad, she was there even when she was on adventures with me.”
The young dragon spoke calmly and smiled, but perhaps he did not know how to hide his tears because he had not yet become an adult.
“So I’m not sad at all.”
Tears flowed from that smiling face. Even after her smile disappeared, only her tears continued to flow.
at that time.
The haze of the fever caused a momentary hallucination in Cassena’s vision.
Don’t cry, Aki.
Kasena is worried.
On Aki’s forehead as he lowered his head.
The hallucination of Alakish pressing their foreheads together and whispering with a gentle smile… … .
* * *
“You must never be swayed by any temptation. Don’t open your eyes and don’t listen. “You must follow one straight path without leaning to the left or right.”
Mirngadia warned for the fifth time.
I’m worried about my sister.
Setsunen, who clearly had that warning engraved in his head, grinned.
“Don’t worry, Myrmir! “My sister will be back with dad soon!”
fantasy,
