“Haa!” The
person
in charge let out a long sigh and opened his red lips while clutching his throbbing head.
“While I couldn’t see you, your makeup got thicker, sir. The lipstick suits you well.
”
Bang
!
“If you don’t want to be hit, stop making repairs, right? When you say something nice.”
“Neng.”
I politely said the truth.
“Actually, that color doesn’t suit me very well. I thought you came to eat rats. Oh, did you do that to look good for me? Between us, you can just come comfortably. Wow, but this house cake is good. Well well. gulp! It’s a good restaurant.”
I ignored the fiery stare of the person in charge, who had a crumpled face, and eagerly attacked the chocolate cake in front of me with a fork.
I looked at the empty plate with sad eyes and asked
the person in charge.
Instead of permission, the person in charge raised a shaking fist.
Ick, this must be true.
“Then I’m fine. It’s been a pleasure seeing you for the first time in a while, manager.”
I was about to stand up, but he grabbed my shoulder like lightning. I couldn’t move even when I whimpered at how strong Josu, who has a slender body, couldn’t move. “Everyone, manager. Are you working out these days
?
“This guy who lives in the corner of a room must have garbage level! And where do you want to go now? I just posted a one-line notice and now I’m back on topic! What save the world? You crazy bastard! You’re the only one who posts a hiatus notice like that!”
“Oh! Ah, it hurts!”
“Do you know how late the series has been? I can’t go anywhere until I hand over the overdue manuscript!”
The person in charge who forced me to sit in the chair held out the notebook in front of me.
“Come on, write it! If you give me the manuscript, I’ll proofread it right away and update it on the serialization site!”
“Here, manager. As you know, being a plaintiff doesn’t come out like this. The writing location is also important… … .”
“Oh, then, would you like to be canned at the publishing house for the first time in a while?”
A cruel and merciless punishment that confines writers who have missed the canned deadline and extracts manuscripts like machines!
“Wow, the atmosphere of this cafe is really nice. Is the concept of an arboretum that there are many trees? Phytoncide seems to come out well… … . I’ll just write it here.”
“Good idea, sir.”
The person in charge looked at me with a smile as bright as a rose.
The cafe with the atmosphere of the forest, where trees and vines are intertwined like an arboretum, and her smile were in harmony as if they were one.
But if I don’t write the manuscript like this, that smile will turn into a demon again.
I carefully set down the pot of black roses I was holding in my arms and reverently placed my hand on the keyboard of my laptop with the blank screen flickering.
“Then I will write it?”
And then I will work hard on writing the manuscript…
“But before that, can I just eat a piece of cake?
“Shiba… … . 쳐 드세요.”
탁탁! 타다닥! 타타탁!
잠시 후 내 손가락이 키보드를 두드린다.
그래 시작은 이렇다.
***
[……베르나슈는 절망했다.]
그녀는 우주의 조화와 균형을 수호하는 신을 믿는 신실한 신도이자 고귀한 엘프였다.
베르나슈는 또한 모험가였다.
그녀가 속한 파티는 모험가 등급 중 최고라는 전설의 다이아몬드 등급.
혼자서 일만의 군대를 감당할 수 있는 괴력의 야만전사 카이크 약관의 나이에 벌써 성황의 신력을 아득히 초월한 신관 이안 그리고 백발백중의 신궁 엘프 베르냐슈.
사람들은 그들을 용사라 불렀다.
베르나슈가 이끄는 용사 파티는 세상을 멸망시키려는 마왕 죽음을 지배하는 사룡(死龍)에게서 인류를 구원하기 위해 출정했다.
그 어떤 고난과 역경도 그들을 막을 수는 없었다.
용사 파티는 수십만에 이르는 언데드 군단마저 뚫고 마침내 사룡의 던전에 이르렀지만.
-크크크 가소롭구나. 미개한 원숭이들아. 네깟 것들이 파괴신님의 사도인 나를 도모할 수 있으리라 여겼느냐.
태초의 멸망 파괴신의 신력을 얻은 사룡의 힘은 그들의 예상을 아득히 초월했다.
야만전사 카이크의 용력도 이안의 신성 주문도 자신의 활도 사룡에게는 통하지 않았던 것이다.
베르나슈가 사룡에게 활을 겨눈 채 다급히 동료에게 외쳤다.
“카이크의 치료는 아직 멀었는가? 이안!”
“Cool! Kaike!”
Barbarian Kaik, who was slashed by the dragon’s claws and coughing up black blood.
Priest Ian tried to heal him with a hand imbued with divine power, but his internal wounds did not heal at all
.
At that time, the dragon laughed at them and opened its hideous mouth with only bones remaining.
-It’s no use trying to get mad. Do you think that you guys were able to come this far because you guys were strong?
“What do you mean, evil dragon!”
Bernache shouted, gritting his teeth.
The evil dragon flashed an evil red light from its empty eyes.
Did you say
you would destroy humanity?
”
-Kreur! Isn’t it fun? You, once considered the hope of mankind, become my slaves and destroy mankind!
The barbarian Kaik, who had been listening to this, aimed his broken greatsword at his neck.
“I am a proud warrior who serves Mother Nature… … . I’d rather kill myself than be used by you!”
“Oh no! Kayke!”
– It’s no use even if you kill yourself. Have you forgotten what my authority is? I am Ashdak, the dragon that rules over death!
The group remembered for a moment.
What they faced while getting to this point.
In particular, the army of death they faced at the end was the 1 million imperial army that had been sent out to subdue the dragons.
The dragon had the evil power to turn the corpse into undead and serve it as its own.
The reason why they were dispatched as warriors was because of the danger of the evil dragons, who were called upon to rule by the corpse.
At that time, priest Ian stepped forward with a determined expression.
“Take Vernache-sama Caike and escape here. I’ll buy you time. If it’s my divine spell, I can stop the dragon for a while.”
“Oh no! I can’t just leave you alone! I’d rather stay!”
“Bernache-sama’s bow can’t tie the dragon down!”
At that time, the fallen barbarian, Kaik, staggered to
his feet. “What are you talking about!
Meanwhile, the dragon who was looking down at such a party of warriors snorted.
– Heung What the monkeys are doing is really insignificant. Do you think your things can run away from me!
Wow!
The dragon opened its mouth made of bones as if it were about to tear.
– Kill everyone at once!
Wow!
The acid breath, imbued with tremendous poison, poured out with the momentum to swallow the entire dungeon.
It was already too late to run away.
“omg! Holy Shield!”
Tsutsutsu!
Confused priest Ian hurriedly raised his divine power and used divine magic, and a golden protective shield enveloped the warrior party. But, hey! But, he couldn’t overcome the acid breath’s miasma, and the protective shield began to crack. Despair passed across
the
faces
of
the
party
.
Having inherited the blood of the clan of harmony and balance, she possesses a weak but precognitive ability.
For a moment, Bernache saw it.
Kaik, an undead warrior who slews rotten intestines from the wounds left by the dragon’s claws on his chest and mercilessly slaughters soldiers with his greatsword.
Instead of the divine power that healed people, Ian, a skeleton priest who curses the people with the power of the god of destruction contaminated with miasma, curses the people.
And Bernache himself, an undead elf with half of his face rotting and revealing his hideous white bones.
The miserable words of those who were once called warriors.
“Ah, God of harmony and balance… … .”
Bernache, holding the seed of the world tree hanging around his neck, called out to his long-lost god.
“I will not dare to ask for salvation…”
However, even if they died, they did not want to become undead and become tools for massacring innocent people. “
At least
, please give us a complete death so that we won’t be used by the dragon.”
Just then, Ian’s divine shield was shattered.
Bernache and the party members closed their eyes and waited for the impending death.
Flash
! D.
The divine shield has already disappeared without a trace. But the dragon’s acid brass couldn’t inflict even the slightest wound
on
them. In front of them, there was someone who was blocking the dragon’s breath with both hands outstretched. The dragon’s breath, which would melt even steel
in
an instant, was blocked by his hand and did not move. Iyan exclaimed in
amazement
.
“This can’t be… … . Is this a god?”
Even the arrogant barbarian Kaik looked at him with thrilled eyes at the incredible miracle.
“Ah, God of harmony and balance…”
Bernache knelt down and looked at the back of the god who had saved them, shedding tears.
The long-lost God heard his prayers and descended to save him.
Swoop.
At that time, the god who was blocking the acid brass turned his head, as if he had heard Bernache’s words.
Bernache’s eyes widened.
Although he had only heard about it through oral tradition, it was because he was so different from the god of harmony and balance he knew.
“Who are you
over there?” -What are you guys! Where is the
god
from
!
For a moment there was a strange silence.
But what followed was even more bizarre.
Chicken Graack! Chicken Graack!
Shush shush!
With a strange bone sound, white bone fragments began to flock to the child’s body.
Another evil dragon appeared on the spot.
– Destruction eh eh!
The dragon screamed in fright.
– Whoah! you! What the hell are you guys!
***
“Wait a minute there. Sleep.”
“Yes? Why are you like that?”
“Wasn’t Tower of God over? Why are the three gods appearing here?” He
is the only god in the happy world (2)
“Hey, wait a minute, sir.”
“yes? Why are you doing this?”
“Wasn’t the Tower of God over? Why are the three gods appearing here?”
The person in charge who was looking at my manuscript in real time wrinkled his face. I scratched my head.
“Isn’t it a bit out of the blue for Samsin to
come out?”
“Oops! Now, there is a scene where Samsinie eats four dragons deliciously… … . 뭐 담당님이 정 그러시다면 넘어가죠.”
타닥! 타다닥!
내 손끝이 다시 춤추기 시작했다.
새로운 시작은 이렇다.
[……어린 마족 엘리야의 시야를 뒤덮고 있는 것은 오직 동족들의 죽음뿐이었다.]
***
베이고 꿰뚫리고 태워진 채 산처럼 쌓여 있는 마족들의 시체들.
마족이라고는 하지만 이마의 엄지만 한 작은 뿔과 등에 나있는 박쥐 같은 날개를 제외하고는 인간과 크게 다를 바 없었다.
이미 영락할 대로 영락해 마족의 힘을 잃고 평범하게 살아온 그들이었다.
하지만 그럼에도 불구하고 그들을 용납할 수 없는 이들이 있었다.
첫눈처럼 하얀 날개에 전신에 성스러운 빛을 두른 천족들.
그들이 손에 들고 있는 창칼에는 채 식지 않은 마족들의 피가 흘러내렸다.
마족들의 왕 하지만 마왕이라기보다는 촌장 같은 중년 사내가 피눈물을 흘리며 울부짖었다.
“대체 우리들이 무엇을 잘못했기에 이런 잔혹한 짓을 벌이느냐!오래전 너희들에게 패해 간신히 명맥만을 이어 오고 있는 우리 일족을 정녕 이렇게 씨를 말려야겠는가!”
“You are a sin just by existing.”
Seriously!
The sword of the Elyos, who swung with an expressionless face, cut off the demon king’s head.
And there were no
more living demons there .
The Elyos gazed up at the sky and knelt down in unison.
There was a divine being watching over them from above the clouds.
A king of the Elyos and an existence worthy of being called a god.
Heavenly God.
