uh…?
uh…?
It’s not such a long story. not complicated either.
Back in the days when my mother was still wriggling, I had her hand tucked into one of my two slots in my inventory. It was because the overwhelming presence that I felt every time I touched it was too burdensome.
As a pitiful invincible person, I was not welcomed anywhere and could not stay in one place for long, fearing that I would be discovered as a worshiper of evil spirits. It was all useless fear, but back then, I was always carrying unnecessary worries.
I earned a day and lived a day.
When I couldn’t earn a day, I starved for a day.
Fortunately, this body was the kind of thing that could move very well even with a little starvation.
At one point, I thought of becoming a mercenary, but I didn’t have the confidence to kill someone. Injuring myself was far more terrifying than killing someone.
That’s how I greeted my second winter. A year has passed, but my life has not moved forward.
Still living day by day.
After a while, the day when there was a severe snowstorm. I met my benefactor, Santos.
As usual, I ran into a group of thieves as I left the city, driven by groundless fear. I ran away from the thieves, and fortunately escaped their pursuit, but ended up getting lost in the mountains.
I didn’t know how to get food in the mountains in winter, but I still walked with a well-moving body. I continued walking eastward as the sun rose. Hoping that someday I will run into the road that people walk on.
I starved and starved and starved again.
The body, which seemed to move forever, collapsed. On the verge of losing consciousness in a terrible blizzard. I saw a little light
Sanctus saved me like that.
He was a man who stood moderately somewhere between middle age and old age. Sanctus was moderately pleasant and moderately serious.
When I finally came to my senses, he jokingly said that he almost removed the corpse for no money and laughed. Sanctus didn’t ask me anything. I was just told to stay there and go.
He was a priest who worshiped the goddess Yuji and at the same time a gravekeeper living outside the city.
In fact, when I found out he was a priest, I wanted to get up and run away right away. Of course, I couldn’t overcome the temptation of free food and beds and sat down.
After getting well enough, I learned how to handle corpses under him. It was a trigger that I offered to help him with his work because I was sorry for wasting rice.
As I was working, I asked him a question.
why did you save me He answered with a smile.
“I just wanted to.”
The smile I saw then settled in the deepest place in my heart.
Sanctus always helped, helped, and helped others. He used to say that you don’t need a reason to help people. I wanted to be like him.
That’s how I became more and more like him.
Winter has come again. A year of tranquility. I thought it wouldn’t be bad to continue living like this. sincerely.
One day, while clearing snow as usual, I picked up a man lying on the snow. He, like me last winter, was at the end of his life.
I saved him Just like I learned from Sanctus.
But I never should have saved that motherfucking sorcerer.
With a smile on his face, the damn sorcerer recovered himself, confessed that he was a worshiper of demons, and tore me apart with his magic.
I died like that. no i thought i was dead
When I woke up, a ‘hand’ that I don’t know how it came out of the inventory was touching my cheek.
And I faced the consequences of what I had done.
The dismembered body of Sanctus.
it was all my fault If I hadn’t saved that goddamned mage, Sanctus would have lived.
I buried Sanctus’ corpse, took his priestly clothes, and put them in one of the two inventory slots that happened to be empty.
I needed strength. Tranquility in this world was allowed only to those who had the power to protect it.
Mercy is also to be given only to those who deserve it.
Only the hand that got out of the inventory worried about me with a pitiful wriggling. Looking at the hand reminded me of a job I had been avoiding.
Priestess of Corruption.
I had a way to be strong.
That’s how I accepted myself as the ‘Priest of Corruption’.
***
Why aaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Without a moment’s hesitation, he only suppressed the intent to kill and swung the butcher.
“Uh-huh! Dangerous!”
With River Kell’s cry, the divinity moved. Black shadows grabbed my body and stretched. like shadows.
Give your legs more strength. Tearing away the shadows with force, he swung a butcher who fiercely thirsted for the blood of his enemies.
“die!”
Riverkell smiled, showing white teeth. He stomped his right leg and shouted.
“You are the balance of retribution!”
A hammer made of pure white light landed on my head. It was the ‘Hammer of Punishment’, the power of the Reformation Priest.
The light hit me. A heavy divine shock flowed through his entire body.
“Cool.”
blood flowed back After barely spitting out blood and regaining my balance, Riverkell smiled broadly. “If you look closely
,
isn’t the divinity you feel in your body belong to the goddess of maintenance?
“So you were a worshiper of evil spirits like me!”
That dog.
“shut up!”
“I guess I hit the mark?”
“I told you to shut up! Mother!”
The void was distorted. Space was torn apart and a huge decaying giant fell.
– That ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!
I restarted the butcher. Metal cogs rotated at high speed.
today. I will definitely kill that bastard wizard who doesn’t even know grace.
Riverkell looked up at the Rotting Giant and smiled.
“Yeah. It’s a pretty interesting authority. It’ll be perfect if I take yours while my left arm is empty!”
No answer was needed. I jumped out of my seat and ran straight toward River Kell. The Gates of Corruption shone brighter than ever, energizing me.
The spinning saw blade became a line tearing through the air to devour the Reaverkel.
“I really like you! Really!”
The purple-haired woman, who must have been split in half earlier, stepped between me and Reaverkell and held out her arm.
Blood and flesh were pulverized. The woman who stopped the butcher by sacrificing one arm smiled broadly.
“You and me…”
“Get out of the way!”
Why hey hey hey hey!
He blew off the woman’s neck and ran towards River Kell. I jumped out of my seat and raised the butcher up, and Riverkell smiled and pointed behind me.
Something pulled me from behind. I’ve given up on slashing Reaverkell. I rotated my body around the foot I stepped on and tore the being that pulled me to pieces. Blood and flesh mingled with purple hair.
“As expected, it’s hot! It’s hot!”
The purple-haired woman poked out from behind Riverkell’s back and smiled broadly.
“How many times will you go! I’m really curious! Really!”
They were relaxing to the fullest, but I wasn’t the only one here.
thud! thud! thud! thud!
The footsteps of the decaying giant shook the earth.
– That ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!
The giant let out a roar and struck his fist to crush Riverkell and the woman. As Riverkell groaned in a low voice, a purple membrane blocked the giant’s fist.
Quaang!
While the thin film crumbled like paper, the two quickly backed away and avoided their seats. The red-haired woman who had been watching us with a blank face all this time shouted.
“Anyway, if you’re a worshiper of evil spirits, you can just say it! Huh? Let’s just take what we deserve!”
“No! Never! No! How long have I been waiting for him!”
Riverkell, who heard the purple-haired woman’s cry, replied with a smirk.
“I’d like to, but he’s not going to do that at all, is he?”
I silently grabbed the butcher. The vibration of the saw blade soothed my anger.
He was right.
Tonight I kill Riverkell. certainly.
“let’s go.”
bang!
At my call, the giant of corruption roared wildly and kicked off the seat.
– That ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!

Puck!
The man hit by Sajita’s club rolled on the floor. Dacia looked at the fallen man with trembling eyes.
“You’re not dead, are you?”
Sagitta glanced at the fallen man and gave a brief reply.
“Not yet.”
Fuck!
A woman was struck in the head by Carmen’s sheath and fell. He looked at the fallen woman with a slightly apologetic face and quickly shouted.
“Let’s move quickly and go to the lord’s castle!”
It all started suddenly. As soon as the purple curtain wrapped around the city, some of the citizens started running wild. Those who were hurt by them also went crazy and ran amok. The chaos that began simultaneously engulfed the city in an instant.
The party, who was unpacking their belongings in the middle of the night, saw a group of madmen sweeping the city, and quickly armed themselves and ran out of the inn. At first, he tried to get out of the city, but because a group of madmen constantly came out and blocked his way, he eventually gave up and turned to the inner castle where the lord lived.
Dacia swung her sword with the scabbard. Hit by her sharp blow, the madman rolled on the floor.
a little bit. If I went a little further, it was tolerance.
“uh…?”
What Dakia, who finally arrived at the inner sanctuary, saw was despair. broken gate. Floors and walls covered in blood and flesh. Insanity did not simply appear among citizens.
Sajita gazed at the broken inner gate with an expressionless face, put the blunt weapon in her hand on her waist, and took out the spear. This was the end of only fainting the crazy people as requested by Carmen and Dakia.
“Sajita?”
He looked at Carmen, who called his name, and answered.
“Now I have to kill. I have to kill and kill to get out of this crazy city.”
Sagitta took her eyes off Carmen and called for the princess.
“Princess.”
“yes?”
One madman jumped out and charged at Sagittarius.
“AA AA AA!”
hooked
Sagittarius swung his shield without hesitation and crushed the madman’s head. Red blood splattered over his helmet. Sagitta looked into the princess’s golden eyes and said.
“Women, children, and men all turn into pieces of meat if beaten properly. If you want to live, think of stabbing a piece of meat and kill it. I will take the lead.”
Sajita jumped into the crowd of madmen and smashed them with his shield and spear to open the way.
Carmen and Dakia gritted their teeth, drew swords from their sheaths, and ran after Sagittarius. As Sajita said, now was not the time to be considerate of the madmen who were once citizens.
Sagittarius shouted as he kicked the madman out of his way and slashed his spear to end his life.
“Don’t fall behind!”
Dacia closed her eyes and swung her sword. The feeling of cutting the flesh of a living creature passed through his hands. The situation was too urgent to be immersed in the shock of the first murder. Dakia commits a second murder by playing with the sword again. And the third murder too.
The group drilled through and through again. While killing all the madmen who block it.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaap!”
Sajita, who had pierced another madman, violently kicked out of the seat and ran out. The castle gate was right in front of me.
Sagittarius saw through the gap he had created. A giant and several people running wild. And in the middle of it, Marnak was struggling.
Changed the way you hold the spear. Not for kicking, but for throwing.
thud.
Using his strong legs as pillars, he squeezes out the strength of his muscles. the body knew How to load the spear without wasting a single point of strength. He did it that way.
The spear in Sajita’s right hand cut through the air with explosive speed.
***
Caang!
Riverkell, who had blocked the Butcher with magic, giggled at me.
“Isn’t there a newer way? You’re too simple…”
At that moment, Riverkell’s head exploded. The spear that exploded his head dangled on the floor.
I was so dumbfounded that I stood there and muttered.
“What is this…?”
