Chapter 185

Chapter 185

Thesilid who was in front of me blocked Europa by holding it with his bare hands.

The white blade was instantly stained with blood and I had no choice but to relax my hand.

Meanwhile, Thesilid gritted his teeth and slowly pulled Europa away from me.

Guhk.

The groan of pain that didnt come out even when I was stabbing myself finally slipped out.

Raising my divine power, healing light flowed from my fingertips and rested on Thesilids injured hand, not mine.

I didnt need to heal myself. The wound in my stomach healed quickly enough.

No, more precisely, it was transferred to someone else.

However, the pain continued. I gritted my teeth and turned around.

The energy of Reed looking down at me from the high platform was unusual.

Ellet Rodelline.

Is it because I dared to spill his blood?

The air in the throne room was as cold as the breath exhaled by a monster from the Northern Ice Sea.

Reed turned to face me, his blood-colored eyes radiating a chill like never before.

I need an explanation for this.

A black object formed at the end of his long outstretched right arm.

The summoned Demon Sword used the victims he had killed as sacrifices to instantly restore his body.

I opened my mouth, feeling the pain dissipate at once.

You probably already noticed.

I share the tutorial period with Thesilid Argent for every episode.

Therefore, the 100th Thesilid before us is no exception to the fact that the Healing for the Beloved and the Guardian of the Beloved learned in childhood is also applied to him.

And now, I have the power to activate Guardian of the Beloved with my will.

I used Speaker of Startup Commands.

The ability to forcefully activate a targets skills. I used it to touch the Guardian of the Beloved.

Ah

As expected, an exclamation as if he had already guessed it.

It was only natural. The information I know is extracted from a segment made from his life, and the Reed in front of me is the 100th round, which is nearing the end of the story.

He gave me a generous evaluation, not knowing that I am a being who has been eavesdropping his entire life.

That you have that skill means

Have you been to Unisus Dungeon? Such an unpleasant place.

Does it matter?

Its matters. I dont know what that bug-like 17th did without stopping you.

Reed burst into laughter.

But not long afterward, all smiles were lifted from his face.

That alone completely changed the atmosphere in the throne room. Reed was colder and more furious than ever.

I cant believe youre using that skill. Why? Do you want to die with me?

I had no intention of doing so. But to make my bluff stronger, I didnt answer.

I see.

Reeds face was impassive, almost inorganic, as he finished his conclusion.

But at this moment, he expressed his anger in a way other than facial expressions.

Reeds shadow, unraveled like a skein of black thread, instantly covered one huge wall.

It was as if a pitch-black door to the realm of ten thousand demons opened behind his back.

The darkness of the shadows curled and mixed like oil paint, creating chaotic swirls here and there.

Within it, countless pupils flashed like evil starlight.

Chaos and Evil.

Before I could even connect the two words that were stuck in my head, he restrained the darkness.

In an instant, the door of Ten Thousand Demons closed, and only then did I realize that I was holding my breathing.

He spoke, with a madness in his eyes that had not yet subsided.

I cant bear to look at the Saint who is willing to sacrifice her life to protect a world that God has abandoned.

<That barren sandy beach is not suitable for the Lord. I will serve you. The temples of Chaos and Evil are only for you.>

Three fissures in space split open behind Reeds back.

From within, the lust of the Demon Kings to meet Newborn Chaos and Evil oozed out like a churning stream.

The air in the throne room was polluted by the great desires that stirred in the air. It feels like the air I breathed into my lungs turned into sticky mucus.

I felt like I was suffocating little by little.

I dont remember inviting these things.

A cold, low-pitched voice was heard. Reed finally made a decision.

Lets end the conversation here. The original purpose has been fulfilled.

Reed chose one of the three cracks and pulled it open like a curtain.

I hope you come to see me next time, Ellet Rodelline.

He left a strange comment instead of a farewell and completely turned around.

As soon as he took a step into the crack, black energy surrounded him. It was qualitatively different from the energy of an ordinary demon, which was a dull, dry darkness without any stickiness.

Soon his back and presence disappeared from the throne room.

Ah.

I did it.

I succeeded in chasing Reed away.

Susususu.

As if it had been waiting, Descent was released. The power surrounding me dissipated and my body returned to its original state.

At that moment.

!

A force so strong that I wondered if my body was going to be crushed, grabbed me from behind.

Thesilid, who had trapped me in his arms, buried his face in my shoulder.

A tremor came from his grip, which had been holding my right wrist to prevent me from harming myself.

He didnt say anything and just stayed like that.

Only then did I realize that I had been neglecting Thesilid because I was preoccupied with confronting Reed.

17th Thesilid found out about his future.

He was already in a state of terrible disillusionment with the life he had been given over and over again, but there were four times that many more lives to come.

Moreover, there is no rest at the end, only ruin, and in the end, not only humans but even God betrays him.

What must have been the state of Thesilid Argents heart and mind after hearing this damning revelation?

I didnt even dare to guess. I could just beg.

Terry.

With my left hand, which was not being held by him, I squeezed his wrist harder this time.

I promise.

I will never let you become like that. I will do that. Ill make sure.

Therefore .

My fever was rising. Thats definitely the reason why my eyes were getting blurry and hot right now.

Stay here. In this episode.

Stay with me

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt my consciousness rapidly scattering.

What follows is a message that leaves nothing but helpless.

[<System> You suffer from Gods fever as a result of unreasonable use of the Divinity. Sleep is recommended for recovery. Remaining time 1 day 23 hours 59 minutes.]

Since I was in the arms of someone I could trust, I closed my eyes with relief.

Suddenly a thought occurred to me.

How many times?

How many more times will I entrust my time to you like this?

I couldnt figure it out.
