Episode 219
Episode 81. Leaving Porapora Island “Cog! Cog!”
Igor gasped and ran across the village.
The villages of the natives were not so large. Cog immediately realized the meaning of Igor’s voice and fled Kantai’s barracks.
“Igor! Could it be that Yuma-sama woke up?”
“Yes!”
Cog and Igor had just switched jobs nursing Yuma. Koh felt his nose tingle as he searched for Yuma’s barracks.
“Yuma-sama!”
Kog wet the leather at the entrance to the barracks and looked for Yuma.
Yuma got out of bed and stretched out, enjoying an indescribably refreshing feeling.
“I guess you were worried about cog. What’s wrong with your expression?”
Seeing Cog’s crying face, Yuma tilted her head.
“Did something happen while I passed out?”
The moment Yuma said that, Kantai followed Cog and entered the barracks.
As soon as she entered, she held Cog’s hand and looked at Yuma.
uh? Why are you two holding hands?
Only then did Yuma sense that something was wrong.
“Miss Yuma. Are you okay? Are there any uncomfortable places? God thank you…
Cog was heartbroken when he saw that Yuma was moving. Kantai wrapped his arms around Cog’s shoulders and patted him on the back.
“Cog. How long has it been since I passed out? I think I woke up after a night’s sleep… but I don’t think the two of them could have become lovers in that short amount of time.”
Anyway, it fits perfectly.
Yuma thought so and smiled.
“Yuma-sama… Three months have passed. Yuma-sama has been bedridden for three months.”
“What?”
As soon as Cog finished answering, the smile on Yuma’s lips disappeared.
Yuma stuttered incongruously and widened his eyes.
What the hell does this mean!
“Three months… three months?”
“Yeah…
It felt like someone was mercilessly hitting the back of the head with a Serukaze hammer or something.
Yuma thought that he would have been lying down for at most one day and two days at most.
Long… Come to think of it, all the native villages were burned by Empey. If it had only been a few days, there would be no way the barracks would be in such good shape.’
Upon paying attention, the barracks where he was lying were deeply imbued with traces of life. Besides, Cog and Igor were all tanned and full of beards.
Except for the shape of their hair, they looked like natives without fail.
“It is worth knowing what happened. You had a lot of trouble taking care of me, Cog.”
Yuma let out a small sigh and said so. Then Igor, who was standing next to him, acted aegyo as if he wanted to recognize him too.
Yuma returned his chin with an affectionate fist and found Bali Nun. Even when Igor collapsed, he seemed unwilling to stop his hideous charm.
“Brother Ballinan… gave all his life force to the Spirit King to save Yuma. That’s why I’m barely breathing right now.”
“As soon as you wake up, you hear terrible stories.”
As Yuma absorbed the black aura and was about to kill Empey, he remembered what Igme Seus had said about Ballinan’s vitality.
Cog told Yuma step by step what had happened in the past three months. All the while, it was difficult for Yuma to hide his complicated state of mind.
“I need to see Ballinan.”
Cog led Yuma to the barracks where Ballinan lay. While walking the short distance, the natives gathered in the village looked at Yuma curiously.
“Ha…
[What? I woke up this baby. Mr. Par. Your followers are dying.]
The sleeping Ballinan was breathing thinly, like a dead person.
“Igmeseus. How can I save Ballinan?”
Ballinen Phobian. A crazy kid from the Povian family who follows him. The little boy whose screws had been loosened was approaching death with his whole body turning pale as if he would be erased at any moment.
[It’s a problem that can be solved with a little help from Belkan’s daughter over there.]
Yuma turned her head and looked at Kantai. Kantai had blazing eyes as if he would kill Igmeseus at any moment.
Yuma suppressed his troubled heart and regained his composure.
There were two issues that weighed heavily on his mind.
One was the life force of Ballinan, and the other was the life and death of his lover and colleagues who had not yet been found.
I never thought 3 months would pass like this.
“Whoa…
Yuma took a deep breath and made a fist. And, as always, Yuma decided to move right away.
If the mind is complicated and the problems to be solved feel infinitely far away, the answer is to move more and faster.
Isn’t it the first time you’ve experienced a sudden accident or been in a crisis after coming to the East? Yuma firmly believed that Natalie and Catherine Cheryl were still alive.
I had to leave Porapora Island right away and go find them.
“Let’s talk about Kantai. My colleagues and I must leave immediately.”
After sleeping for three months, the damn body was in a better condition than ever before, and the pattern created by the absorption of the demonic sword Amoula remained dark on the left arm.
After the decisive battle with Heize, I was convinced that I had taken a step forward as a soldier for the first time in a while. If it was now, even if he fought the transformed Kantai, he would never lose.
‘If Igmeseus’ words are true, I’ll have to subdue Kantai by force and restore Balinan.’
Regardless of whether she became Cogg’s lover or how old her grudge with Igmeseus was, to Yuma, Ballinan’s life was more important.
It was a cog who had already spent several years under Yuma. There was no way that such a cog could not know what decision Yuma had made after seeing the look in his eyes.
But Cog trusted Yuma.
Of course, Yuma didn’t even think about killing or maiming Cog’s lover. Force would always be the last resort.
“Yes, there must be a lot to talk about. I have a story to hear from you too. Let’s take a little walk.”
Kantai stepped out of the barracks first. Yuma narrowed his eyes and looked at her from behind, then tapped Cog on the shoulder.
‘Maybe I’ll leave Cog behind.’
Cog seemed to have fallen in love with Kantai quite dearly during the three months he was lying there.
Yuma wasn’t going to stop Cog if he expressed his will to stay on the island.
Maybe it was a good thing.
If it was Kantai, as long as demons don’t invade the island again, they won’t endanger Kog.
Since Empey had come to Amanjo’s order, it didn’t seem like she would come back to Po Rapora Island again.
Amanzo would probably continue to send powerful pursuers in the future. Knowing that fact, it was a burden for Yuma to continue to be with an ordinary colleague like Cog on the trip to the east.
If Cog or the other comrades lose their lives due to A Manzo’s clutches…
Empey’s attack this time brought Yuma’s journey to the east aroused great alarm.
‘I shouldn’t have brought anyone to the East. Hu Amanzo you son of a bitch… I’ll definitely tear it up and kill it.’
Yuma followed Kantai to the forest path.
The two of them just walked in silence until they were separated from the tribesmen’s village. Kantai went deeper and deeper into the forest, and Yuma felt nervous inside.
Could it be that this woman is trying to drag me into the deepest part of the forest and make a deal with me? It was because the forest road was so deep and dizzy that it made me question.
“Kantai. How far are you going?
Why don’t you stop walking and have a calm talk.”
Kantai ignored Yuma’s words and continued walking.
After about an hour, the two stood in front of a huge cave surrounded by thorny vines.
“This is the physical tomb my father used in the human world.”
“A grave?”
“okay. Because of Igmeseus’ betrayal, my father had no choice but to end his life in the human world.”
“Why is that story all of a sudden?”
It was a story that would normally be interesting to hear, but not now.
Kantai began striding into Velkan’s tomb.
Yuma stood outside and then, helplessly, followed her into the tomb.
Belkan’s tomb was an incredibly large and deep cave that was used as it was.
Upon reaching the end of the cave, Yuma couldn’t help but exclaim.
It was because of Belkan’s huge body that was half-buried at the end of the cave, as if sealed.
It seemed as if the body would break out of the pile of stones with great force and move at any moment.
There were many similarities with Kantai when he transformed.
Yuma swallowed and stood side by side with Kantai, looking up at Belkan’s corpse.
“My father always told me to be wary of humans. Do you know why?”
Yuma didn’t answer.
“Humans are evil. If you’re not evil, you’re weak. Weak people are bound to be cunning, and people who are neither cunning nor weak always bring misfortune. It’s something my father used to say to me often.”
Kantai lowered his head slightly and spoke again.
“You are the human who brought me misfortune, Yuma. to me and my people. The devil’s servants must have come to this island looking for you.”
“Yeah… that’s right.”
“My island has been irreparably damaged.”
Yuma became so solemn that it was difficult for him to choose the words to answer.
Whatever the reason, the reason why Mpey turned Porapora Island into a wasteland was because she was tracking her.
Shuuuuu…
As Kantai stretched out his hand upwards, blue energy began to pour out from the chest of Belkan’s corpse.
“But you risked your life to fight him. I could have run away pretending not to know. And maybe you… would have made the same choice even if the devil’s subordinates hadn’t come looking for you.”
“This is not my idea. This is the story Cog told me. If it were you, I’m sure you would have risked your life and fought the same way even if the demons came to visit you.”
yes it must have been
But Yuma couldn’t get the words out of his mouth. Kantai’s voice was calm, but the deep emotion contained in it was conveyed to Yuma.
The green aura that rose from Belkan’s corpse took the form of a sphere and was gathering on Kantai’s palm.
When the energy was fully gathered, Kantai held it out to Yuma.
“If you give this to Igmeseus, you will be able to save the contractor.”
“Kantai.”
“Tell me, Yuma Drake.”
“I was going to take it by force if you didn’t give it to me.”
“Why do you even say that?”
Yuma hadn’t yet received the blue aura that had been pushed out to him.
“I want to apologize.”
The two stared at each other for a while and said nothing.
“Take it. Leave the contractor alive right away.”
“you?”
“I want to spend some time with my father after a long time.”
Yuma turned around and exited the cave, but stopped for a moment.
“Thank you Kantai.”
I didn’t mean to get an answer. Yuma left Belkan’s tomb and moved toward the village.
Strangely, unlike when I entered, when I left the tomb, a straight forest path unfolded. Upon entering the village, I saw Cog and Igor.
“I have prepared to leave, Yuma-sama. Let’s keep Master Ballinan alive and go back.”
