173.
The being that appeared inside the god palanquin was a beautiful woman with her eyes closed.
month by month month by month.
To be precise, it was a doll of a woman realistic enough to be mistaken for a human if it weren’t for the sound that was heard every time it moved.
“That’s the ancient Tracotti’s guardian…”
“That mannequin is Wismel, right?”
“Hmm….”
Kang Seung-hyun looked at the Wizmel doll that appeared.
– Red, long hair that goes down to the waist.
– Thin and long fingers.
-In addition, there are unique patterns engraved all over the body.
It seemed to reproduce Wismel’s description as seen in the archives.
‘A doll created by the best puppeteer in Tracotti and his apprentice.’
In terms of perfection, it would be comparable to Wismel itself.
{Wizmel-sama ah… Wismel-sama!}
Pengrill approached Wismel and knelt down.
It was a makeshift doll, so it couldn’t even show its expression, but it seemed that it was unbearably happy to see that its voice was so excited.
{You’ve waited a long time. Even though it took hundreds of years… I sincerely congratulate you on becoming the God of Tracotti again.}
It was a sight that felt all the more bizarre because both of them were wearing doll bodies.
{Do you see those fools?}
Pengrill shouted, pointing at Kang’s group.
{Those who do not believe in Wismel-sama interfere with the sacred ceremony… They are sinners who have committed an irreversible sin!}
“What is it? A bad guy who kills people!”
Kim Ho-jeong, who was listening to the story, was angry and heard the golden glory. Pengrill didn’t care and talked calmly.
{So punish them!}
Dalgak Dalgak Dalgak.
As soon as Pengrill finished speaking, Wismel approached the three of them.
“It’s a punishment…”
“Ah~ Well, it’s just a doll, right? There can be no god like that!”
Rebecca looked at it with a blank face, but Kim Ho-jung shouted with a golden glory.
“Let’s smash it coolly!”
“Mr. Kim Ho-jeong.”
“huh?”
“Prepare your mind first.”
Kang Seung-hyun drank the stamina potion.
“Why are you doing that… Huh?”
Crackle.
At that moment, Wismel reached out and moved his fingers.
Woo woo woo.
At the same time, a heavy sensation that seemed to oppress the air hit the three of them.
‘It’s started.’
Koo Goo!
“Ughhhh!”
“Hee hee hee….”
“….”
The pressure was such that it was difficult to breathe properly.
Rebecca collapsed on the floor because she couldn’t stand upright, and Kim Ho-jeong could barely hold on, relying on her golden glory.
“What happened…. My body is so heavy!”
“Look ahead.”
Rebecca couldn’t see it, but a message window appeared in front of the two of them.
[I feel awe.]
[My mental strength begins to decline.]
[Awe].
Like the rare monster’s [Intimidation], it is a special skill possessed by divine beings.
“What is this?”
“[Awe] is an ability that lowers the sanity of lower-ranking beings the moment they become aware of it.”
“Cut your spirit?”
Since you have to have high mental strength to endure [awe], it was usually not easy to face God, let alone fight.
“Is that why you are out of breath? Is the teacher okay?”
“It’s not okay, of course.”
“Because it looks perfectly fine compared to the other side?”
Kim Ho-jung pointed at Rebecca with a puzzled face.
Rebecca just seemed stunned.
“Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
of it of course, the dimension movers could withstand the effect of the status window to some extent, but it would be difficult for ordinary adventurers of the Azul Continent to endure.
“There are all sorts of fraudulent skills that make you lose your spirit just by looking at their face… Sensei knows that very well.”
Kim Ho-jung sighed and lowered his head.
Even if he is a dimension mover, Kim Ho-jeong also has a considerably lower mental strength than average, so it will not be easy to endure.
“Hey, what… I met the church kids often because of what I was doing before.”
“I thought he was just a doll, but is he really a god?”
“The body is a doll, but the power within it is real.”
– Wismel’s scattered divine power.
-Wizmel’s will.
– The faith of those who believe in Wismel.
As a result of all these factors merging into one, ‘God’ Wismel was resurrected.
“But you’re a doll anyway, right? If I destroy it somehow…”
{How many times do I have to tell you stupid bastard to understand?}
“What is it?”
Pengril laughed at Kim Ho-jung and said.
{The Wizmel in front of me is not just a doll, but the guardian deity of Tracotti, who uses a doll as a vessel!}
In fact, it could have been made by using the flesh of a living creature as a vessel, but the reason for using a clay doll was because Wismel’s original appearance was perfect. Because I wanted to recreate it.
{If you still don’t believe it, feel it with your body!}
Faaaaa!
As soon as Pengrill finished speaking, Wismel emitted a dazzling flash from his fingertips.
“What is that again!”
Kwagwagagagak!
Walls and floors touched by the flash were mercilessly crushed.
“Laser gun?”
“To be precise, it must be a wave imbued with divine power.”
fault!
Kang Seung-hyun grabbed Rebecca’s arm and stepped back.
Faaaa!
Although he narrowly avoided Wismel’s attack, he couldn’t completely avoid it, so the tip of the flash grazed Kang’s arm.
Passes!
At that moment, the area touched by the flash of light crumbled like dust.
It’s a shame that only the outer skin was damaged, but if the wound was deep, the whole arm would have fallen off.
“Is God still a god even if his power is weakened…”
“Teacher’s arms! eight!”
“It just rubbed my skin.”
This level can be restored with the flesh of an illusion.
Kang Seung-hyun wrapped the wound with a bandage.
‘But I don’t think there’s an answer if it’s right.’
If you can get this much power with just a brush, what will happen if you get hit head-on?
Kim Ho-jeong muttered with trembling teeth.
“[Awe] alone is strong enough, but this is another cheating skill…”
“It’s probably in a weakened state.”
It is true that the doll in front of him contained Wismel’s power. However, it has not been long since his resurrection, and the number of believers has greatly decreased.
“Is this a weakened state?”
“Half of the followers of Tracotti are not sane, they are addicted to drugs…” The condition
of the followers is not normal, and they are made by weaving the souls of Tracotti residents, and they use porcelain dolls as bodies, not living things. It’s going to be difficult to show off your skills.
“It’s been nerfed a lot compared to when it was at its peak.”
On the contrary, if the force was used excessively, the doll used as a body might be smashed.
“I have the power of a god, but my body is normal… Then, isn’t there a chance?”
“Of course, even if he becomes weak, a god is a god, so he easily crushes ordinary humans.”
Kim Ho-jeong snapped her fingers as if she had a good idea.
“Let’s return that doll to a pile of dirt with the teacher’s disassembly skill! Then wouldn’t it be possible to collect the souls of the people of Tracotti?”
“It’s a disassembly skill…”
Theoretically, if you activate [Disassembly★], you can return the Wizmel doll to its material state.
It is possible to return everything, even the souls that were put into the soil before being baked and various dye materials.
‘Only in theory.’
[Decomposition ★] can easily dismantle simple items, but the higher the grade of the item to be dismantled, the higher the stamina consumption.
“Don’t you remember? The last time I dismantled an escape portal, an enormous amount of stamina was consumed.”
“Oh right. At that time, Sensei, it took even depletion of stamina.”
“Even the boss monster’s items are about that much… What would happen if you disassembled a doll with the power of a god?”
Moreover, Kang Seung-hyun is seriously injured.
Trying to dismantle a high-ranking item with a body like this would put a huge strain on the body.
“If you’re unlucky, you might lie down for a while or just die.”
“Should I have brought more stamina potions?”
“More than anything else, the problem is…”
Paaaaaa!
“Aww! Come again!”
“You have to be able to get close.”
I couldn’t approach it because Wismel continued to fire flash waves.
If you approach to dismantle the doll, you will be hit by the waves and your entire body will be turned to powder and destroyed.
“First jump out!”
The three of them ran away from the flash wave.
“Didn’t he say that he was definitely a good god? Wouldn’t he forgive me if I begged for it…”
“Originally, though.”
Seunghyun Kang looked at Wismel.
“Maybe not now.”
It is clearly a divine being, but its body is a doll created by a puppeteer.
In addition, the puppeteer can control the puppets he has created.
‘In other words, it means that he is a god who can control Pengril at will.’
A god who does not control humans, but is controlled by humans.
It is too harsh an ending for a god who has been resurrected after hundreds of years.
‘Of course, Pengrill wouldn’t be aware that he was manipulating the gods. He thinks that everything he does is Wismel’s will.’
Seunghyun Kang looked at the pen grill.
He looked very calm even though his real body was left like garbage.
{If you say that you will become a follower of Wismel, I will spare your life.}
“Really?”
{Because I have to prepare the Ego Golem material for the guard that will protect Tracotti.}
“Is that saving lives! I’m not saying you’re going to turn it into a golem and eat it!”
Kim Ho-jeong asked with a puzzled face,
but aaaa!
I had to force my mouth shut because of the flashing waves coming from behind.
“Damn, is there really no way to win?”
“Do you think Kim Ho-jeong can fight and win against a raging typhoon or tsunami?”
“How do you overcome that? Avoid!”
“So is the divine being. It’s easier to avoid than to fight.”
Actually, there is no way at all.
Because running away is the easiest way.
“But if we run away, who will save Tracotti…”
“That’s right.”
“As expected, ‘that’… should I write it?”
If they escape like this, the two might be able to survive. After all, he was a veteran dimension mover who had survived for three years.
However, it is impossible to save the people who were sacrificed for making dolls, and Pengrill, who controls the gods, cannot stop it no matter what he does.
‘Not only Tracotti, but the area around Lake Pittsta, and perhaps the entire western part of the Azel Continent will be swallowed up.’
Humans who have gained the power of a god all face a similar end.
Pengrill won’t be much different.
‘Well, running away isn’t my taste, and it’s no fun if I just leave like this.’
I had no intention of running away in the first place.
Because Kang Seung-hyun was a person who would find a way at all costs.
‘If I take the initiative somehow, I think I’ll have a chance.’
It was then.
:Hey, I want to help
. It was a very soft and warm voice that I had never heard before.
:Use the power of your left hand.:
At the same time, a bright light radiated from Seunghyun Kang’s left hand.
