[ Episode 338. Salvation and destruction]

The son-in-law grew cold.



Of course, it was still noisy with the sound of undead and monsters fighting, but it didn’t mean that.

“Did you kill him?”

The silence was finally broken by someone’s voice of disbelief.

“Yeah, I killed him.”

Bahat said as if he had taken it for granted and wiped the blood from his shoes on the floor.

“Are you dissatisfied?”

“Bahat! No matter how reckless you are, how can you...!”

A warlock shouted while pointing, and Bahat laughed.

“It is strange to say such a thing. Why did Bison stay still when he tried to kill Luna Pendragon?”

“......That’s...”

It must have been because Luna thought she would survive through death. The warlock who pointed with his finger must have thought so, and he lowered his head, lost for words.

“And it seems like everyone doesn’t know who is alive thanks to them. Who do you think it is thanks to?”

“That’s it...”

Everyone’s eyes turned to me.

I just watched in silence at Bahat’s sudden action.

“When I tried to use magic, when I thought the target was Adrias Cromwell, I stayed still. Was Bison that good?”

“It’s not like that.......”

“It’s a pity that those who don’t know grace like you should just let them all die. Adrias is so nice.”

Bahat smiled and looked at me.

The fact that I was a warlock didn’t seem to care at all.

“Are you not attacking me?”

“you? I? why?”

“......All right.”

It was a silent blindfold.

It sounded like he would just let it go, seeing as he shamelessly said where the black magic was a little while ago.

“Let’s make one thing clear.”

Bahat’s words were not over.

“With the magic of my oath, I will bury everything that happened here. How is it?”

“Hehehe.”

The oath magic was one of Bahat’s original magic. A recreated magic that created the magic of the Alven family that controls time and space.

However, the magic itself was known as beginner magic that was not too difficult to activate.

“I agree.”

At Bahat’s suggestion, Patrick took the initiative.

And then Biante nodded.

“Adrias Cromwell is our benefactor. For him, keeping this a secret would be the little help we can offer.”

Two of the eight remaining Warlocks agreed, and soon others agreed to the oath magic.

“Yes, that would be the right thing to do.”

“It’s a natural thing. Are you still alive thanks to him?”

When everyone agreed, Bahat connected all of the warlocks’ assistants with magic.

Uung-

“Now, if you try to reveal what happened here, the oath magic will be activated. I want to talk, but time will get in the way.”

“Amazing magic. It’s the principle that time goes back...”

“Heh, is it Bahat Alven as well? Magic like this is only beginner-level magic.......”

Even though I couldn’t figure out why he was helping me so much, it was true that I was grateful. Without saying anything, I just bowed my head to Bahat.

“Heung, I didn’t cast a spell to make you feel good, but to hide the fact that I killed Bison. Do not be mistaken.”

Bahat was still disingenuous.

It was nice because it was easy for me to deal with.

‘By the way.......’

I checked the message that popped up while trying to summon the undead a moment ago.

[Nickel Lifeheal’s summons denied.]

[Nickel Lifeheal evolving...]

It was a message I had never seen before.

I’ve been summoned successfully while evolving, so why was it suddenly rejected?

‘It wasn’t long before the evolution was completed. Is that because of that?’

At first, I couldn’t think of anything else.

In particular, this evolution was the second evolution and it took a long time unlike the previous ones, so it felt different than usual.

“Isn’t it time to think about this?”

The commotion was quiet.

– Hee hee hee!

The inside of his body, which entered through the mouth of Ouroboros, was a different world.



What the heck is this......” The scenery made even me, who usually doesn’t get agitated, mutter to myself.

– Ahahaha!

– Hee hee!

The flower fields were wide open.

The low mountains and fields that do not make you think you are in the stomach of something living, and the sparkling ores embroidering the black ceiling.

– It’s human!

-human? human!

And in the flower garden where I was standing, beings that looked like spirits were roaming around.

“Ouroboros, what the hell is this......”

-Continue inside. I took out my heart beforehand.

Ouroboros’ tone was calm.

He seemed to know that I was surprised, but he didn’t seem to want to say anything.

“All right.”

I saw an amazing sight, but I quickly came to my senses. Considering those still fighting outside, it was mutually beneficial to kill Ouroboros as quickly as possible.

‘You can move your heart. Well, I’m doing this inside my body, but I can’t do anything.’

As Ouroboros said, the deeper you go, the stronger you can feel. At the same time, a huge heartbeat vibrated enough to be felt through the skin, just like when meeting a powerful named item.

-Youngcha! Young car!

– One not two! one two!

With a cute shout, we finally found the heart of Ouroboros. The heart was being moved by the strength of numerous spirits.

‘Rather than a heart...’

It was a kind of magic core.

I wonder if the expression magic stone or inner altar would be more appropriate.

I thought it was smaller than Ouroboros, but it was still the size of a small mountain.

– This is my heart.

The words of Ouroboros echoed through space.

At the same time, the spirits carrying the huge heart laughed and scattered when they found me.

“Ouroboros.”

-huh?

“If I kill you, it will end here too, right?”

– Probably.

The inside of Ouroboros’ body was like another world. That’s why I felt strange as I had to kill Ouroboros.

– No matter what you think, the world outside is already collapsing. can’t make a choice

“I know.”

I immediately spread my wings.

Then, as if I felt something in the wings, a strong force was transmitted to me.

“Let’s ask one more Ouroboros.”

-What?

“Does it have anything to do with the Transcendent?”

Of course there is, but I was curious about the specific relationship.

I don’t think he had any transcendence. In the first place, the transcendental person has no real body except for the body using the incarnation.

‘The Yeom I saw in Hell was also an incarnation. Of course, that wasn’t the real body either.’

Ouroboros readily answered my question.

-I am a being that never existed. It was created after the model of a being.

“Are you saying it was a transcendental being who created you?”

– No, that’s not it. No, I was modeled after the transcendent. In fact, my heart contains a part of that transcendent.

That’s why the wings reacted so strongly.

It was a story about the body of a transcendental being, so it was a bigger heart than I thought.

-I don’t know who made me. Like you said, it could be a transcendent.

“Thank you for your reply.”

I held up Galaksur and looked at a heart the size of a mountain. Although it has a round shape, it is a little burdensome because of its size.

-Then I’ll ask you.

“yes.”

You’re erasing a world with my own hands.

Those bright spirits will all disappear after Ouroboros dies.

Ugh—

“Thank you, Ouroboros.”

With the final greeting, Galaksur began to move along the grain.
