Chapter 192

Episode 192

[No way… He must have been destroyed by the Aspect, right?]

Lathea looked at Akasha standing at the bottom of the lake and said in disbelief.

[It’s been a while. Leoric’s daughter.]

[How…?]

[We meet again like this, but it’s a pity that I only hear your voice. [What is it like to see a face?]

Hwaaaah…!!

When Akasha lightly flicked her finger sideways, to her surprise, Latea separated from Namgung and popped out.

[…!!]

As if she, too, was surprised, Latea could not hide her embarrassed expression as she looked at Namgoong and her own body alternately.

[A lot has changed. When I remember you, you were a girl who was only around waist height.]

[Well, you’re probably still the same height now.]

Lathea smiled bitterly and responded to his words with a joke.

[What on earth happened? It’s amazing to see you again… soul extraction. Are you sure you haven’t lost your strength?]

[That can’t be true. This is ridiculous to even call it power. It’s like child’s play. However, Latea, I didn’t know that you too had become a spirit…]

I could feel the loneliness in his voice.

[There is no need to be sad. Becoming a spirit was something I decided to do on my own.]

[What does that mean?]

[After the War of the Throne, my father, who rebelled against his status, was defeated, and instead of exterminating the Yoran clan, they imprisoned them in a tower.]

[In the tower . ?]

[yes. It is a prison where all the races that rebelled are imprisoned. Do you remember the Tur clan and the Thunder clan?]

The Elf King looked surprised at her words.

[Are they trapped there too?]

[Yes, they were. But now everyone is free. It’s all thanks to Ija.]

When Lathea introduced Namgung, he nodded with an awkward expression.

[I can feel the power of the master of the seven snakes. Plus, the smell of the yaksha… interesting. It is truly rare to find someone with both the powers of the Revelator and the Contractor.]

“Now that you know my powers, you know what I can do. Say it bluntly. “I want to borrow the power of you and your army.”

[You sound interesting. Are we who tried to destroy the phase to help the Revelator who uses the power of the phase?]

[Calm down, king. He is different from other revelators. He is a returner and fought alongside his father in his past life.]

[So?]

[…Yes?]

Latea asked back in confusion at Akasha’s question.

[He wants to fix this carnival. I am willing to fight against my status. Not only that. He also saved us from the tower.]

[Does that alone mean we can trust him? A Revelator can go to war with an Aspect? Latea, I don’t know why a child like you believes such nonsense.]

[No. Please believe me. He is different.]

[Your father was like that too. But look at the results. The 100,000 elves who believed in you sank to the bottom of the lake without even finding their bodies and became vengeful spirits.]

[Crrrrrrrrr….]

It purred low, like a huge mountain goat.

[Our world has completely collapsed. As a result, Natriel was polluted and suffered forever.]

‘Something is not good…’

Namgung examined Akasha’s mood.

[But are you asking me to lend you my strength again? Rather, it’s the opposite. I have something I need to accept from you guys!!]

Ahhhh…!!!

As Akasha drew her sword, the water below the lake began to tremble.

[Please fix it…!! You are not the only one suffering! My father’s soul was sealed, and we were trapped in the tower for hundreds of years.]

[So…? We, who were robbed of everything due to the sin of believing in you… now bring the seven serpents of revelation and help them even in death?]

Akasha said in a trembling voice.

“There are two minutes left.”

[…What?]

“I don’t have much time, so I’ll be brief. I roughly understand the situation. “You fought and trusted the humans, but in the end you were defeated and even your land disappeared… It’s definitely heartbreaking.”

Namgung came down in front of him, chewing the lung he was holding once more.

“But what can I do?”

He looked at Namgung as if he were dumbfounded.

“I wasn’t around in your time. As a stranger, I may not know exactly what kind of anger you have. But at least I know this much.”

Wooooow….

The blade Namgung had trembled.

“The people you should be angry with are not the defeated humans, but the Aspects who killed you.”

[…!!]

He threw the sword he was holding on the floor and grabbed Akasha’s hand and made her hold his neck.

“If you have a grudge against a human being, you can break my neck. “If only my life can resolve the grudge between you and 100,000 elves.”

[…What are you doing?]

“But if you trust me with my life and entrust you to me, I promise to kill you.”

Suddenly,

Akasha glared at Namgung.

[How can you, a Revelator, kill a phase?]

“There are many ways. “If you become the winner of the Octagon War… you can gain a position of stature.”

[under? So now you are participating in this war.]

“And if you have that power, you can open the upper level of the tower. “There were demons trapped on the second floor of the tower.”

[Demon tribe…? The ones who betrayed us and clung to Sang Sang in order to survive?]

“That’s what he said. Ask him to fill the empty space in the Octagon War. So, if you win the war, you will pass on the power of your status to me.”

[gibberish. I’m sure he’ll kill you first when he gets to the top, right?]

“I think so too. What he says cannot be trusted. “I don’t care if I die, so I tell him to use me as a horse… but there’s no way a guy who ran away for the survival of his clan would do something that would risk his life.” seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

[But why do you say that?]

“I have no intention of giving him the power of the phase or his place in the proxy clan. But it would be different for you.”

[You’re going to make me… become a member of the proxy clan again?]

Akasha burst into laughter at his words.

[Did you trick Lathea like this? You are talking nonsense! I must have said it. We are destroyed!]

“Just because the elves were destroyed doesn’t mean the world disappeared. is not it?”

[…What?]

“I heard that the Primordial Spirit is like the core of the created world. “If the world you live in is completely destroyed, isn’t it true that the Primordial Spirit should also disappear?”

Namgung pointed to Natriel.

[Even if our world exists, what good is it now? There are no surviving elves.]

“Yes. There are no elves left alive. At first, I planned to get you through necromancy. But 100,000 souls… No, I can’t absorb all the vengeful souls anyway, and you don’t want that, so we’ll have to fight unnecessarily.”

Namgung said to him.

“Why not try being something other than an elf?”

[…something else?]

“Just as you did not exist in my time, there are things in my time that did not exist in your time.”

Aspect and Representative Clan.

The two compositions that had not changed since the start of the carnival changed as the 20th door approached.

“Latea, you said your carnival lasted until the 20th door, right? “If it had ended there, I probably wouldn’t have experienced it properly even if I knew about their existence.”

A being that came with the 20th door.

“Death God.”

Those who have the same strong power as the proxy clan and take their lives in return for giving up that power.

[Reaper? Those damn bastards who were cackling as they watched us die in the corner of the Battle of Thrones? Don’t be funny!! Are you saying that we should become such lowly ghosts?]

“There is nothing we can’t do. He’s dead anyway. “What’s the difference between being a skeleton or a lich?”

Unlike him, who was angry, Namgung answered him in a calm voice.

“All you have to do is get revenge.”

[…I was a fool for trying to listen to humans again. I have no expectations from them.]

[Yes, I have never experienced the Reaper, but I know what kind of being they are. They are people who should never be trusted. But the king of the elves should sit in that position? That’s nonsense.]

“Because these guys can’t be trusted, I’m trying to leave it to someone I can trust.”

The Shinigami are not a fixed clan.

That was the name of the place.

“When someone takes a seat as a Shinigami, only then is the Shinigami clan born. But who would sit there?”

The moment you become a Shinigami, your clan identity disappears.

It could not have been anything other than a terrible thing for the surrogate clan.

This was evident from the fact that even Carlos, the devil, used all kinds of tricks to avoid extinction.

Remaining as a clan.

That was the most important thing for the agents.

[But now… become a messenger to me?]

“In my past life, the messengers appeared with the 20th door. That means that until then, the position of envoy was vacant. However, in order to become a Shinigami, several conditions are necessary.”

They are people directly connected to death.

Therefore, to become a Shinigami, you needed the power of beings close to death.

“Luckily, I have learned necromancy, and I am with the demon king of the underworld, the unknown who lived in the sword grave, and the soul of Lathea who went through the carnival.”

There were people here who were closer to death than anyone else.

“It means I can turn you into a Shinigami.”

Akasha looked worried at Namgung’s words.

“Of course it won’t be an easy decision. But you might want to think about what you really want.”

Namgung said to him.

“Is it anger toward a comrade who fought together but could not win, or is it revenge on a strong enemy who fought together but could not win?”

[Should I trust humans again?]

“No. I don’t trust humans either. “But I guess I can tell you to trust me, not humans.”

Akasha laughed as if she was amazed at his words.

[If I become a Shinigami… will I really be able to avenge this grudge?]

“I don’t know. If I knew that, I would be a god. “I’m just struggling to get revenge on the people who made my world a hell.”

[Don’t you usually have to give assurance in situations like this?]

[It’s a problem to be too honest.]

Nameless and Lathea clicked their tongues.

“The results are unpredictable.”

Namgung said to him.

“However, if you help me, the odds will increase by at least 0.1%.”

[The power of the Shinigami is powerful, but it comes at a price. If you borrow the power of us as Shinigami… your life will be in danger, right?]

“Even so, if I can achieve my goal, I will borrow the power of the Shinigami at any time.”

At Namgung’s answer, Akasha looked at him for a moment, as if at a loss for words.

[If I become a Shinigami, what will happen to Natriel?]

“Well. Shinigami are not beings that have a realm. “I don’t know, but there is a high possibility that the primordial spirit will disappear.”

[Kik…]

The Holy Spirit rubbed Akasha’s cheek in a pitiful voice.

[That’s cruel. You have to pay a price for becoming a Shinigami instead of just borrowing the power of a Shinigami.]

He looked at Namgung.

[Is there a way to be with the Holy Spirit? I heard that when you become a Shinigami, you forget everything. If there is Natriel… Even if I become a Shinigami, I will not forget my identity.]

“…It is not that there is no way.”

▶ Soul Ministry Lv 4 is available.

Unlike the first time when he refused, Namgung was able to see the change in Natriel now that he was able to use soul ministry.

“Just don’t leave the decision to yourself.”

And the moment Namgung’s hand touched Natriel’s forehead, purple light began to surround him.
