Chapter 396

[ Episode 396. Arrival and the night before the storm]

12 hours since I walked out of the mountain goat’s tavern.



We finally arrived at Shaiya.

“This is Shay.”

Nebro looked at the scene of the city appearing in front of him, showing strange emotions. I also looked at Shaiya, hiding my surprise in a different way from Nebro.

‘The Shaiya I saw was a desert.’

Is this the desert? It was such a beautiful city. It was the most gigantic and strange atmosphere of any city I had ever seen.

“I can already feel the energy of the enemies! Hahahaha!”

And looking at the city, Thor let out a huge laugh.

As Thor said, the energy felt from all sides covered the surroundings as if they were suffocating. I could intuit that it wasn’t just the servants who had come, but also that numerous transcendentalists had made their way.

“Now what?”

“Hahahaha! Don’t be afraid! We just have to continue our adventure!”

Thor marched towards the city with imposing steps. Seeing Thor like that, Nebro stood by as if escorting Ilias.

-joy! I don’t even care!

“Oh sorry. I will definitely protect Green Narae.”

When Nebro smiled awkwardly and said, Green Narae followed Thor with his little wings flapping.

“Nebro.”

“Yes Ilias.”

“It’s the first time I’ve come this far safely.”

Ilias whispered in a low voice. The anxiety in it was palpable.

‘I knew the future, but now I don’t know, so I’ll be anxious.’

Moreover, with the destination right in front of you, those feelings will deepen.

[“Walk confidently.”]

I conveyed my will to the anxious two.

[“Anyway, the enemies are aware of our presence. There’s nothing good about showing a frightened side here.”] It’s not

good to show a negative side, even if it’s for the purpose of making the opponent vigilant. I’d rather be openly and confidently like Thor, and the enemies won’t be able to move.

‘It’s not that a few forces came.’

Feeling these auras, it seemed as if all the powers that existed on the continent had gathered. Among them, there will be those who are aiming for Galaksur, those who only want to watch, those who are aiming for the fisherman’s geography, and so on.

“I got nervous because there were more enemies than expected.”

[“I like it. Since the enemies are not one force, they will not be able to attack us recklessly because they are trying to keep each other in check.”]

“That’s right.”

After hearing my will, Nebro nodded with a much improved expression.

“You clowns! what are you doing there! Hurry up and follow me!”

“Yeah, I’ll go.”

Thor’s cry carried a strong energy and spread to the surroundings. The splendor of the city, which seemed to have fallen asleep with him, came to life.

A huge magic city in harmony with deformed plants.

I entered Shaiya where colorful colors entangled in all kinds of plants and futuristic buildings harmonize.

**

The area of the city was enormous even at a glance. Considering the land that used to be a desert, it was understandable enough, but when there were high-rise buildings that other cities did not have, it caused confusion enough to wonder if this was the same world.

“Thor!”

“Hahaha! Who is this!”

In such a city, someone who managed to find Thor was seen approaching. Seeing that Thor greets him warmly, he doesn’t seem to be an enemy...

“TRP! Where did you come from!”

“Where did you come from! Didn’t Thor leave me behind?”

The person who appeared was a boy. He treated Thor casually, but soon looked forward to our party standing behind him.

“These are the carriers of Galaksur.”

“My clowns! Hahaha!”

“Are you laughing right now? Don’t you know that the gods of Asgard are in a frenzy?”

A boy named Thirfi pounded his chest in frustration. Then he gestured toward us.

“Don’t try to get involved with Thor any more. Help is here.”

Judging by the situation, it seemed that Thor was helping us on his own. To be honest, I didn’t have anything to say because I still don’t understand why he’s helping us.

Thor and I had one thing in common.

It means I’m not that afraid of my own death. Is it because I have always lived with death by my side?

But no, rather, that’s why I was afraid of the death of the people around me. My heart like that was intensely projected onto Nebro.

[“Are you afraid of death?”]

“I don’t know. It’s scary.”

[“The death of Ilias? What if Green Narae dies?”]

“Ah.......”

As if realizing something through my question, Nebro let out a low salivation.

[“You have to be alert to save them both. At least in a situation where you’re alive, I have to stop dying right in front of you.”]

“Yes!”

For Nebro, this party was the only relationship that existed in the world. That’s why I’ll cherish them as much as I think of my people.

‘Maybe more than I thought......’

So we led all kinds of groups and headed to the center of Shaiya.

**

The place where the central altar of Shaiya is located.

It was already a situation where numerous gods and transcendents were gathered.

“There’s only one thing to eat, but there’s a lot of them.”

“We’re here to stop you, you scoundrels.”

“Hehe. Then, if I see the opportunity, I will put it in my mouth right away and pretend to be noble...”

Due to the energy of the transcendentalists, ordinary people could not even come close to the place where the altar was located. There were so many transcendentalists that I wondered if this had ever happened in the history of the continent.

“What is it, did you come to fight and win?”

“Is that all? All the very odd ones came.”

The news of Galaksur’s arrival in Shaiya had already spread. Thanks to that, they were all alert and wary of each other.

The people who were carrying Galaksur didn’t seem to care at all.

“I heard there’s Thor.”

“I heard that one arm was cut off.”

“Thor’s arm? Who?”

The gaze of those who were having a conversation turned to the man in black who was languidly drinking from one side.

The Heavenly Demon, who instantly became famous by cutting off Thor’s arm, was there.

“hmm?”

The Heavenly Demon, ignoring countless stares, suddenly lifted her head while drinking. Sodalgi, who was with him, showed interest in the reaction.

“Why is that, brother?”

“Are you not feeling it?”

At the words of the Heavenly Demon, Dalgi tilted her head and looked in the direction the Heavenly Demon was facing. There, a beggar who felt no energy was walking, wearing a hood and using a cane.

“You are a peculiar person. I can’t feel any energy...”

“You can’t feel any energy?”

The Heavenly Demon put down the drink she was drinking and straightened her posture with a nervous look. Then Dalgi smiled brightly, thinking that the Heavenly Demon was making fun of him.

“I didn’t know that Heavenly Demon brother could be so playful. Ho Ho.”

“Is this principal a joke?”

The Heavenly Demon muttered in a cold voice, not even looking at Dalgi. It was only then that Dalgi, who realized the ideal, tried to find the person wearing the hood once again, but the figure disappeared before he knew it.

“He just...?”

“Hehehehehaha!”

The Heavenly Demon, who suddenly burst into laughter, looked carefully at the gathered Transcendentalists, then raised the corner of her mouth once more.

“It seems that the law of cause and effect worked.”

“yes?”

“I didn’t have to go find it. You came all the way here yourself. The guy is lucky.”

“Brother, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Dalgi showed a pouting reaction cutely with a frustrated face. However, the Heavenly Demon did not waver at all and just muttered.

“He who is covered with all sins and bonds has come.”

“The one who is covered with all the sins and bonds?”

The Heavenly Demon did not answer Dal-gi’s curiosity as she tilted her head as if asking what it was. I just pick up my drink again, imagining the chaos that will happen soon.
