chapter 106
106 – Part 3 Episode 8
The fire god was confident.
Although it has gradually fallen and has become a god that cannot even intervene directly on the continent, it was different in the very distant past.
Now, the stolen light was another name for Paura.
Before Kiriya declared that she would become a god of light and light up the world, it was Paura’s flame that lit up the darkness.
He was hotter than warm, not gentle and violent, but he was not enough to light up the darkness.
“I shall defeat the darkness and be glorious once again.”
The earth god rolled the ground.
A high and thick wall of earth rose, leaving a huge space around the gods.
After that, the God of Metal struck the ground with a hammer, and the walls of this earth were covered with armor.
It was a barrier filled with the divinity of the two deities and seemed difficult to pass through even in the dark.
‘Stupid stuff.’
Darkness recalled the place it had been before.
The victor of the great war, the god of light. Kiriya who became the main deity of the continent.
An empire that practically ruled the continent for a thousand years, a great emperor who took all the glory as his own and took a leap.
The 4 great ancient dragons look downwards.
A descendant of the old lightning god, or a reincarnation.
From the god of wind to the young white dragon who has the power of an old dragon.
Of course, Paura wasn’t a funny enemy, but the faces of those gathered here were far less than those they faced in the dragon’s canyon.
“… You hit the wall.”
“Nocturne, everyone knows you are fast on your feet.”
From the start, this is a stupid decision.
A wall like this, you can break through as much as you like.
Of course, it would be difficult to destroy the whole thing as it is the work of a godhead, but it was very easy to pass through the hole.
But I didn’t have to.
“It’s been too long since I left the continent.”
Paura can do that.
He doesn’t have bad compatibility with darkness, and he’s quite strong.
However, the god of the earth is a small bowler who has not been able to use much power before, and the god of metal and the ent transcendence are people I don’t even remember.
Darkness drove the newly drawn sword into the ground.
With that alone, the inside of the barrier was dyed pitch-black, and a barrier of darkness was also placed on top of the barrier.
Immediately, Paura, the fire god, kindled a spark, which could light the area around them, but not all inside the barrier.
“Did you think you could light this darkness with a humble torch?”
The darkness that hid itself in pitch darkness said mockingly.
The fire god, enraged by this, made a bigger flame and tried to burn the inside of the barrier, but it didn’t work as well as he thought.
“Every place covered in darkness is my territory. Did you think you could light a fire in my estate?”
“Shut up.”
The god of fire took out a flaming sword and swung it wide.
Everything in the path of the swordsman, even the darkness, was burned away, but the surrounding darkness quickly filled the empty space.
“Us!”
The god of fire called the god of the earth with the meaning of rebuke, asking what he was doing, but what came back was not help but a panicked cry.
“The land…… Don’t move!”
“What?”
Funny sounds.
He is the god of the earth.
All the land in this world is his.
Isn’t it the one that changed the terrain with a single cloud of foot and built a city-sized barrier?
That’s why he can’t move the earth.
“… First, we need to figure out the location of the darkness.”
Leave the bewildered Earth alone, the Ent Transcendentalist, Lysen, spoke.
He planted his roots deep in the ground and stretched out his branches in all directions, trying to count all within the barrier.
‘Where are you?’
I couldn’t see the front properly, but it was fine.
If you cover the inside of this barrier with branches, you can find the location of the darkness…
“You are doing nothing.”
The voice of darkness came clearly from right behind Raisen.
Hearing that sound, Paura immediately swung her sword, and the metal god also swung her hammer, but darkness was faster.
Lysen’s body was harder than the hardest steel, so even the blade did not work, but he couldn’t even block the blade of darkness.
When the sword of darkness pierced Lysen, he quickened his judgment.
‘Catch.’
He was mortally wounded, but he did not die from being stabbed by a sword.
Even if a single twig remains, it can be regenerated with the help of the World Tree.
I’ll blow away most of the power I’ve accumulated so far, but if I can kill the darkness by doing so, it’s okay even if I only inflict fatal wounds.
Rather than pushing away or avoiding the darkness, Lysen extended his branches and embraced the darkness.
“Oh?”
Darkness gave a brief exclamation.
No matter how much it is, the other three are gods, but I looked at it the most easily because I was the only transcendental person, and that is also the transcendental person of a race that was thought to be extinct in the past.
That’s why I took it lightly and attacked him, but I never thought he would show me this kind of improvisation.
The sword of the god of fire and the hammer of the metal god flew towards the bound darkness.
‘A hammer or something.’
Not very threatening.
A hammer like that would hurt and stop getting hit, there’s no major damage.
‘But that sword is a bit different.’
The Fire God is arrogant and has more self-confidence than actual power, but he’s not an idiot.
It was definitely like that in the past, and it’s still dangerous, but it’s a god of fire that can be called a big hit.
It’s not wrong to say that it’s a flame that illuminates the darkness, even if it’s worse than light.
To put it a little differently, it’s because your level is higher.
It’s not much of a threat right now.
——————————————————————————-
“I have to go back to the Empire.”
An army outside the continent has entered the continent.
Darkness has already stepped on the continent, and the Demon God will soon come.
I didn’t get great results from meeting the Dragon Lord, but the magic using the divinity I learned from the guardian dragon was definitely an achievement.
No, but what do you mean by pretending to be surprised after teaching yourself?
It was the black dragon himself who showed me the fire using divine power and taught me to extinguish it, but I was surprised that he made some chains by applying it a little.
In the first place, I was a great mage who was good at magic.
This level of application is basic.
“… Okay. Now we have to go back to the continent.”
“Kiri, what will you do?”
“I intend to stand on the front lines as before. We have to go find their army and destroy it.”
“Isn’t it dangerous?”
“I will avoid demons, darkness, and death. I don’t think I’ll lose, but it could be dangerous if I get caught in a trap. But other transcendental beings and gods are not afraid of gathering together.”
The words of Kiriya, who once won a great war and became the main god of the continent, had a different weight.
“This time, we will not stop at the line of expulsion from the continent. Even if I take damage, I have to get rid of them all.”
“I’m rooting for you. Jim takes care of the continent first, then, like you, gods outside the continent. From now on, I’ll call you a foreigner. I will subdue them and get ready to fight the chief of the foreign gods.”
If you are a Master who has trained with Sarion, you will be able to deal with the Transcendental One, or at least subdue it with a joint attack.
So leave the transcendent to them, and I’ll have to deal with the gods.
“I will join you too, Laios.”
“It would be an honor if the Guardian Dragon would be with us.”
Actually, I thought so.
Dragon Lord, he didn’t show his intentions properly or show himself properly, but the black dragon always acted positively.
I must have thought of participating in the war properly.
“We, Daesoorim, are planning to send out our daughter’s guardsmen. I’m not a transcendentalist, but if all of us work together, I’m sure we’ll be able to deal with at least one god. Of course, I plan to fight actively.”
Argo’s daughter is the elven queen, so she must have moved the queen’s bodyguard.
A minimum master of power. They were also blessed Masters of the World Tree, so it was definitely a sense of power.
Argoya is an old dragon, needless to say.
“Oh, and of course Zephyrus will fight too. Since he is the fastest and freest of friends, it would be fine if he went hunting for lower deities and transcendents who act alone, right?”
“Huh? Oh yes! Because this body is faster and freer than all the gods! I will do that!”
Sniping and strength with that personality.
Even though I wondered if there was something wrong with this world, I thought it was because I was an ally and moved on.
“Is everyone going back? It’s a pity, we couldn’t talk much because of a surprise visit from our friend Nocturne.”
“Don’t voyeur in the shadows, come out?”
When Rod’s voice resounded, I replied curtly.
“Aren’t you the owner of this canyon? A guest from far away is about to leave, but his face is not reflected.”
I also met the Pope when he returned from visiting the empire.
Of course, given the nature of the roads we’ve been through so far, it’s probably more correct that they don’t follow manners rather than ignoring us.
However, the returned Dragon Lord’s answer was different from what was expected.
“Of course I will!”
As before, from afar, I heard real voices, not voices filled with magical energy.
At some point, the Dragon Lord standing between us said with a bright smile.
“Sorry! I’m a little late preparing a present!”
