Episode 363 Cabalon (2)
“After suppressing the Aurors, the knights drive to the left, and the soldiers tie their hands and drive to the right!”
After enjoying a brief victory, Moon Ju-young was busy cleaning up the messy battlefield.
‘Because the head of the family entrusted it to me.’
Since Baek Woo-jin had instructed him directly to do this, he had to handle it perfectly without any problems.
After carefully making sure that the imperial knights and soldiers holding the white flag were subdued and imprisoned, I looked at the sky and earth that Baek Woo-jin had separated.
‘You’re getting stronger endlessly.’
Although he himself survived extreme situations and learned strength, Baek Woo-jin’s growth is incomparable.
The swordsmanship he showed today was at a level that could only be believed even if the god of war had descended.
‘That summoning spell was also amazing.’
Baek Woo-jin’s strength is not limited to force. He demonstrated a near-magical ability to summon modern-day talents, including swordsmen of the New Swordsman Baekga.
A special summoning technique that has absolute power and has never been seen before. It was no wonder that the Allied Forces of the Empire considered Baek Woo-jin to be a god.
“But why are you anxious?”
Moon Ju-young swallowed dryly as he looked at the walls of the imperial capital that Baek Woo-jin had crossed over.
Even though I saw his mighty power and miraculous power, I felt anxious as if my heart was riding waves.
“Are you anxious? “You’re not normal to feel anxious after seeing that person.”
Muyounggaek held up his dusty face and giggled.
“Do you see the sky and the earth split? That’s what the prosecutor did. Who could defeat someone who demonstrates such divine power with just a sword? Even if things like gods and devils come, it’s no use.”
“That’s true, but…”
“Don’t worry about him and just do what he tells you to do. look. “They say they don’t have enough workers over there.”
Younggaek Mu pointed to the place where the imperial knights were tied up.
“That’s right. First of all, you have to follow the instructions given. Thank you… um?”
Moon Ju-young stopped while trying to approach the imperial knights.
“hey! Hey, you’re in charge! “What have you been doing up to now and then handing it over to me!”
“I ran too much today and my feet hurt a little. “Hehe.”
“This bastard is real!”
Moon Ju-young gritted his teeth and approached Mu Young-gaek. Now that I think about it, I received instructions with Dapple Muyounggaek, but the only people who moved were me and Dapple. As soon as he received the instructions, Muyoung-gaek disappeared somewhere.
“You come first day. ok?”
“omg!”
When I grabbed Mu Young-gaek’s collar and shook him, small wrapping cloths fell from his sleeves.
“What is this… you bastard!”
When I opened the fallen wrapping cloth, various ornaments sparkled. Looking at the scratches, it looked like it had been stolen from the Empire’s nobles or knights.
“Are you stealing this while everyone else is working?”
“Haha, my hand moved by itself…”
Moo Young-gaek stumbled and took a step back, and Moon Ju-young threw away the jewel and chased after him.
“Brothers, stop!”
Deple sighed and stepped in between Moon Joo-young and Mu Young-gaek.
“The basic cleanup is over, so you two can rest. “I and the castle lords will handle the rest.”
“….”
Moon Ju-young and Mu Young-gaek, who looked like they were going to fight at any moment, just stared blankly at the sky without any response.
“Brothers?”
“What is that?”
“What light…”
I raised my head, following the gaze of the two people.
“Ah…”
My mouth was so wide that my jaw went out.
It is light.
A white light shining more brilliantly than any other color illuminated the center of the capital.
There is so much bright light that other places seem as dark as night. It seemed like the light of the world was gathered only there.
“Master Shi…”
**
‘Seeing darkness?’
Baek Woo-jin frowned as he scanned the darkness hovering over his shoulder. No one has ever seen darkness that has not been realized. Regardless of God, he is an extraordinary person.
-It’s him, after all. The blonde man from my memory. It hasn’t changed one bit.
As the darkness said, the blond man was standing before his eyes, looking just like he remembered from thousands of years ago.
However, the pupils were different. His golden eyes were sinking deep and deep like an abyss.
“Are you Cavalon?”
“That’s an unnecessary question. You’ve seen that guy’s memories, so you know everything, right? Still, if you want an answer, I’ll give it to you. “I am Cabalon.”
Words like Cabalon’s declaration spread. The light of the halo shining on him became darker.
‘What is that light?’
The halo that illuminates Kabalon is not about momentum, mana, or divine power, but it exerts pressure to the point where it is difficult to breathe. It feels like a heavy weight is hanging on both my lungs.
‘That guy too…’
Baek Woo-jin frowned. Cabalon’s eyes were not only on himself, but also on the darkness hovering over his shoulders.
“Can you see darkness?”
“Can you see it?”
Cavalon smiled, showing his white teeth. Seeing that kind of smile with a sacred and beautiful appearance sent a chill down my spine.
“That is also an unnecessary question. How could I not know my friends? “It doesn’t make sense to not know my best friend who sealed me away.”
“seal?”
-Seal?
“You don’t know either?”
Cavalon grinned and lifted his chin.
“Take out Cain.”
“Cain?”
“The name of my friend in the demon sword is Cain. “You didn’t know yet?”
“No way, he was called the God of War…”
“No, the names are the same. “Well, it was that strong.”
‘Darkness.’
-are you okay.
The darkness nodded its blade as if it was okay.
Chiri ririn!
When I held the black sword with my right hand, the blade, which was much darker and sharper than usual, ignited black flames.
Wooooow!
The darkness rang out a chilling sword sound towards Cabalon.
“Cain.”
Cabalon looked down into the darkness and closed his eyes.
“It’s pitiful that you, who are called the embodiment of the God of War and have risen to the top of the continent, are trapped in such a situation. “Cain.”
-How dare that bastard!
The darkness trembled with its blade as if it would stab Cabalon at any moment.
“Cain must have lost his memory too, right?”
“Then what should we do?”
“Would you like to tell a story about the past?”
“what?”
“Once upon a time, there were two young priests who served the god of war.”
Cavalon’s voice and tone became gentle, like a teacher telling a story to children.
“Mushin…”
Baek Woo-jin lowered the trembling darkness.
‘It’s him and darkness.’
It was clear that the two young priests he spoke of were Kavaron and Cain.
“The two priests who grew up together in the temple became best friends, overcame countless hardships, and eventually rose to the highest positions in the temple, the Priest of Nothingness and the Priest of Light.”
‘Is the priest of nothingness, the priest of darkness and light, Kavaron?’
“The two who rose to the highest rank of priests still had a great friendship and were respected by many people.”
When he uttered the word friendship, Cavalon’s expression changed strangely for a very brief moment.
“Among them, the priest of light had a beautiful younger sister named Karen. “He was a child who didn’t feel any pain even if he put it in his eyes.”
-System….
‘That’s right. ‘It’s her!’
Now it’s clear. The priest of light was Kabaron, and his younger sister, Karen, was the system.
“Karen lacked the talent for writing and martial arts, but her faith in God was greater than anyone else’s, and she was able to become a priest at a young age. The three lived happily together, fighting like their own family. however!”
Cavalon’s soft tone suddenly became hard. It feels like the cement has hardened and become a wall.
“One day, black spots began to appear on Karen’s body. “It was an incurable disease called God’s curse.”
-God’s curse….
‘Is it that time?’
I remembered the scene when the blonde child continued to lie in bed.
“God’s curse on a child who is more religious than anyone else! It was absurd, but the two priests did not give up. To save her sister, she traveled across the continent looking for a way to lift God’s curse, but no medicine or treatment worked. “The younger sister slowly withered away and died, and the two priests looked up at the sky and cried out.”
Cavalon grinned and raised two fingers. Black and white light erupted from each finger, forming a human shape.
“The Priest of Nothing remained by his sister’s side, and the Priest of Light left the continent to find a way. and!”
Cavalon’s voice changes again. A hopeful voice flowed, and the halo radiated a brilliant light.
“The Priest of Light eventually found a way. It was an ancient technique used by a tribe that worshiped ancient gods to become a god. However, due to my younger sister’s physical condition, I could not activate that technique, so I decided to become a god first.”
‘Human blood…’
That was the massacre of Cabalon that Servik Marcalector had mentioned.
“It took a long time, but eventually the priest of light became a being close to god and returned home with the power to save his sister.”
-This is the memory of the last time I saw it.
‘okay.’
Baek Woo-jin nodded. Cabalon seemed to be referring to the time when he entered Karen’s room after blocking the darkness.
“The priest of light turned his sister into a demigod and extended her life. “When I was preparing to go out into the world again to make him a proper god, something very, very strange happened!”
The tone of Cabalon and the atmosphere of the temple change in a split second. Death, anger, and murderous intent come in waves.
“My sister, who extended my life by making me a demi-god, betrayed God along with the priest of nothingness! After the war between the three, which seemed like a natural disaster, the god was sealed, the priest lost his life, and the younger sister was left alone with the pain of the curse. “Okay, that’s it!”
Cavalon grinned and folded his fingers. The white and black lights shining from his fingers faded away at the same time.
“how is it? “Isn’t it a fun story?”
“Is that the story of darkness and you?”
“Khahahaha!”
Cabalon swept up his long bangs and burst into laughter.
“know?”
“what?”
“Do you think people like you know the feelings of a betrayed God?”
His eyes spin like snakes. These are not the eyes of a normal creature. It’s not madness, it’s a ghostly look.
“I found a way to become a god by finding the legacy of an ancient tribe established beyond the continent, and through a lot of effort, I saved my younger brother, but I don’t think you know how it feels to be betrayed by that younger brother and his best friend!”
Cabalon no longer uses the term ‘priest of light’ but ‘I’. As expected, the main characters of all these stories were darkness, Cabalon, and the system.
-….
Darkness frowned and said nothing. I didn’t know if I was confused because I didn’t know what to say or because my memories were coming back.
However, from a third party’s perspective, Cabalon was talking bullshit.
“Wow. “You talk bullshit for a long time.”
Baek Woo-jin walked one step forward and raised his eyebrows.
“What did you say just now?”
Cabalon’s yellow eyes, which were glaring at the darkness, turned towards him.
“That’s bullshit. “You’re missing the most important part of your story.”
“what?”
“How you found the heritage of a tribe that worshiped the ancient gods. How you became a god. How you turned your brother into a demigod. “The ‘how’ is missing.”
I glared at Cabalon with eyes as sharp as blades.
“How many people did you kill?”
“Hoo.”
Cavalon twisted his chin and grinned.
“Do you even know that? Ah Servik. “It seems like that lowly dragon told me.”
“….”
“Well. How many people? “I didn’t count it, but it was definitely over 100,000.”
-One hundred thousand?
“Hmm…”
It was the number I expected, but my tongue went dry when I actually heard it.
“Did they also kill the tribes that worshiped the ancient gods?”
“of course. killed them all There are three ways to become a god. The fastest way is with human blood. A method of absorbing human corpses by turning them into small beads called blood jade. I had to collect them until they were twice the size of a human, so I’ve long since forgotten how many I killed. But why is that?”
Cabalon tilted his head and took a step forward like himself.
“I just wanted to save my brother at all costs. Aren’t humans inherently selfish beings? For the purpose, they kill monsters, kill other races, and even kill fellow humans. “If other people had the same power as me, they would have done the same.”
“There are people who aren’t like that.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head resolutely and raised his right hand holding the darkness.
“That guy is a coward.”
Cabalon raised a long, chopstick-like finger and pointed at the darkness.
“It’s just 10,000 tails that didn’t do anything and just waited for Karen to die!”
-…
Perhaps the memory was coming back, but Darkness only trembled and said nothing.
“I am the one who saved Karen. I saved countless people by killing them, but they stuck with that guy and betrayed me. “The friend I devoted my whole life to and the younger brother I changed my life for betrayed me, and you don’t know how I felt!”
Cavalon’s yellow eyes glow white. The light transcended force and mana and oppressed the soul, and the temple began to be filled with white light with the scent of blood.
‘He’s not a god, he’s a guy whose spirit escaped his head.’
-You never know when that guy might attack. Get ready!
‘okay.’
As I was getting ready to activate the martial arts, Cabalon took a deep breath and clapped his hands.
“Now, shall we go back to the old story?”
“what?”
“The story isn’t over yet. “This time it’s a story from the recent past.”
Cavalon smiled and put his hands together.
“When Shin woke up from the seal, he felt that his sister and friend who had sealed him were alive and had become different beings. What was he thinking then? That’s right. plural! It’s revenge on his friend and younger brother who sealed him away! “It is a revenge so great that it can make those two despair.”
He spread out his gathered hands. A deep murderous intent swelled within the aura of light.
“Before we continue the story, should we bring in the main character?”
When Kabalon snapped his fingers, a pillar of light poured down between him and Kabalon.
Quaaaaa!
A blonde woman in a white dress was coming down from a pillar of light that I don’t know where it came from.
‘Poetry system!’
