How To Live as a Scammer in the Game

138. spirit king of water

What a bummer…… Kwwagwagagagagagang!

A black thunder that shook the entire valley of ice for a thousand years.

The thick thunderbolt fell like a god’s mace from the sky.

“Ughgguggh… Kwaaagh!”

Barbau was hit directly without even having time to dodge the attack.

Only the shape of the giant remained, barely recognizable.

It was charred and turned black.

But surprisingly, he was still breathing even in that state…

“It’s really boring.”

To my murmur, Magmaros approached and replied.

“I think that lightning is more terrible. It can’t be helped that the giants are immortal, and they made the immortal monster like that.”

Creuyton, who had managed to walk on the shoulder of Magmaros, also shook his head with his mouth wide open.

“Oh my God…I never thought the day would come when I could see with my own eyes turning a giant into a lump of charcoal like this…”

“Hee hee hee!”

Even Pegasus nodded.

Apparently, the blow of my conversion did not seem so easy.

Embarrassed by the compliment, I passed the story on to the next one.

“By the way. If I leave it like this, I think it will eventually recover. Shouldn’t we take measures like the time of Hellperion?”

to my question.

Creighton, who was half dazed, nodded.

“Ah, ah… that, that’s how it should be. Bo, I’ll have to seal it…”

Creighton slowly examined Brabau’s condition.

He looked back like that for a few minutes.

He stammered a little and opened his mouth again.

“Huh, hmm… It looks like this has already been sealed with scars from black thunder, right?…”

“Is it sealed?”

“Because black thunder, like black flame, is the power of a colossus. If only the neck is separately cut and destroyed and put in this ice valley… it seems that there is no need to do anything else.”

“Good.”

“That’s right…”

It seems to be looking at me with slightly terrified eyes.

‘Because it’s not important.’

I swing my sword again

Chew!

He easily decapitated Barbau and finished the seal.

right after that.

Magmaros murmured softly.

“Hu……Now, cutting off the heads of the giants isn’t even strange…”

* * *

I who dealt with Barbau.

Following the guidance of Magmaros, Orhel moved in the direction of descent.

“Orhel… are you okay?”

Let me mumble like that.

Magmaros, who was carrying Kroyton on his back, answered.

“But it’s Orhel. Maybe it’s because I’ve been with you, or maybe it’s because a lot of time has passed, but I’ve become quite squeamish now. Originally, he was a guy with a pretty personality. Of course, even if he wielded that personality, he was strong enough that no one could touch him. You did too.”

“Well. Isn’t that the same as being a half personality?”

“Hahaha. I’ll admit it to some extent. Anyway, even though the opponent is a colossus… He’s lost both eyes, so even Orhell won’t be easily defeated.”

“……”

I nodded my head without answering and hurried my steps slightly.

I walked a little further like that.

A strange sight appeared before our eyes.

“Uh, what’s going on with that…?”

I doubted my eyes.

However…it seemed like I wasn’t the only one doubting my own eyes.

Magmaros also rubbed his eyes.

“It’s not even a desert… I think I can see a mirage?”

Creighton was no different.

“Is it time for me…to die?…”

At the end of the gaze of the three of us was Orhel.

But there was another being crouching next to him, sobbing.

“Thank you for understanding… I’ve been lonely all this time.”

“Yes, yes. I know man. From now on, call me hyung.”

“Yes, brother Orhell.”

Orhel was patting the giant on the back.

The colossus, and the back of Nao.

Seeing that, Magmaros let out a deep sigh.

“I sent it to finish it… Why are you listening to my complaint? Even while holding a brother-in-law ceremony…”

I know yeah……

* * *

I went closer and saw

It felt more absurd.

Perhaps because she lost her eye, as we approached, Naru jumped up in a rage.

“Ugh, whoops!”

At that, Orhel stood up and calmed Nao down.

“Uh huh. It’s okay, it’s okay. Stay still.”

“Gwa, are you okay?”

“Yeah. It’s okay. These are my brother’s friends.”

“Friends… friends? Those scary people?”

At Na Nao’s question, Orhel scratched her head.

looking at me

“Uh…one is a bit scary. The rest are fine. It’s nothing special.”

Hearing this, Magmaros and Kroyton became angry.

“Is that what you said to us?”

“Does it seem right?”

Orhel rather countered.

“What? What? What?”

“Ugh.”

“Let’s move on, Magmaros.”

I cut off their conversation.

asked Orhel.

“What happened?”

“Ah, brother. That’s what I mean. When I listened to him, he said that his circumstances were pitiful. So I listened to him… and we became a little closer.”

“We’re close… lose?”

Hopefully things will go like this

It was an unexpected development.

I was a little taken aback… but I decided to listen to the story for now.

“How did you become friends?”

The two of them took turns opening their mouths to that question.

“As it turns out, this guy was a pitiful fellow.”

“That’s right, come out, pitiful.”

“A giant is a giant. This guy didn’t really want war.”

“That’s right. I don’t like war. I’d rather just sleep.”

oh i’m crazy

“Tell me one.”

Orhel raised her hand.

“I tell you.”

“Uh, um.”

“So the bottom line is, I want to end the war.”

“Is that…possible?”

“What the giants are thinking, my friend. Our Nao-l told us. Then we can put an end to their ambitions if we stop them!”

in his confident tone.

We naturally had no choice but to focus.

Orhel paused for a tempo.

spoke again.

“That’s what the resurrection of Krotos said.”

“The resurrection of Krotos?…”

“The king of the giants. The first giant. If he resurrects…they say that the power of the giants themselves will increase.”

Is it some kind of buff?

Just resurrecting is a bonus stat for all races.

It was a terrible buff.

“That’s why it’s important to prevent that. According to Naeul, you can put a special seal on an altar located in a specific place.”

“Seal…altar?…”

Because I heard the story.

There was one memory that suddenly passed through my head.

The day I first fell to this earth.

It was one thing Gauriel asked me to do.

‘uh? Wait… if it’s a seal…’

I took out the seal that Gauriel had entrusted to me from my bosom and tried it.

It was the first time I took it out after receiving it.

It was also something I hadn’t seen in a very long time.

“You mean this?”

Orhel carefully examined the seal I had taken out.

But it was the first time I had heard of it, so I couldn’t recognize it.

“Umm… I don’t know, do you?”

came out of him.

“Put it on my finger. I can’t see it with my eyes… I’ll recognize it by touch…”

Then he stuck out a finger towards me.

I lifted the seal and gently placed it on the tip of my finger.

Nao, who had been concentrating for a while.

“Oh! That’s right!”

I found out the identity of the seal I was holding.

* * *

‘I can’t believe this was for Crotos’ sealing.’

I still had no idea.

No, there was no way to find out.

‘How do I find out about this?’

But if that’s true… shouldn’t we go and replace this quickly?

While even I was bewildered.

Naool spit out a comment about this seal.

“It’s a seal created with the life force of the archangels. The seal must be replaced with a new one once every thousand years. There are a total of eight altars, and all of them must be replaced.”

Upon Nathan’s explanation, I asked a question.

“Does that mean… do you mean you have to keep grinding the lifespan of archangels to make them?”

“Right. Instead, as long as it exists, Krotos cannot be resurrected forever. Archangels have to give up their lives to stop Krotos from reviving.”

“……”

It’s a fate that you have to do even though you know you’ll die if you continue.

It was me who suddenly saw Gauriel again.

That level of self-sacrifice… is it really that easy?

Can I do it?

To be honest, I thought it might be difficult.

“Now that millennium is almost here. That’s why the giants happened. That’s why the Barbau happened. But I hate going back to those days. Crotos at that time… is scary. He hits me all the time. I have to get hit all the time. do.”

“If that’s the case, why would you rebel?”

“Colossians can’t rebel against Krotos. There’s no such option. The only thing left is to pray that Krotos won’t get angry. But Krotos gets angry every day. That’s why I don’t like it. And Barbau is better than me as a twin. I like Krotos more. This time he even tried to kill me…”

The vocabulary seems a bit lacking, but there was enough resentment and fear in the voice.

Just to the extent that I can feel it just by having such a short conversation.

“I will help! I want you to stop Crotos from reviving again. I… want to be with you guys!”

“So, you’re going to take the seal and change it?”

Of course, I had no intention of actually giving it up.

However, unexpected words came out of Nao’s mouth…

“That is… difficult. Only archangels can enter the altar. Even angels cannot enter. Only archangels can enter.”

‘What? What are you talking about?’

Not even angels, only archangels?

It was a variable that I hadn’t thought of at all.

‘Then I guess I can’t go in either?’

It seemed that Orhel had also heard that story for the first time.

“What? Only an archangel? What is that…”

“To be precise, only beings created by Arlem can come in and out, rather than archangels. That’s why we, the giants, can’t even set foot in it. Not even beings born of a giant, like Creyton. I know they blocked everything because they were afraid they would fall for the tricks of the devil.”

Surprisingly, he’s really thorough.

Orhel shook his head, probably thinking the same thing.

“Hey…what is this, there is no gap, no gap.”

But my thoughts were a bit different.

In particular, after hearing Na Na’s last words, her thoughts changed.

I hurriedly turned my steps.

‘There is someone to send… No, it doesn’t even have to be a person.’

let me go somewhere

Everyone followed behind me.

Orhel came to ask on behalf of them.

“Where are you going, brother?”

“I’ll bring Treyton back to life. He’s a golem… I’ll be able to bring him back to life.”

“Treton? Why is he again?”

“Because Treyton is a golem created by Arlem himself.”

“……!”

It was only then that those who followed me looked into each other’s eyes and made faces of realization.

However, it seemed that Orhel still had one unresolved problem.

“No, Brother. It’s a good idea. Reviving that golem…isn’t it that easy? Especially since Treyton is directly under the Water Spirit King…”

I raised my eyebrows slightly in response to his words.

“I must have forgotten, I am…”

sh*t.

“He is the water spirit king.”

“…Eh, is that right…?”
