[516] New Journey (2)
* * *
Shehakim, the Third Heavenly Heaven.
In the aftermath of God’s punishment piercing Zion, Paradise, the home of the eternal, collapsed in the direction of the seismic wave.
However, there was one building that kept its shape even in the ruins: the Great Hall of the Judicial Authority of the Leaders, located to the north of the city square.
In what is now called the Secret Room under the building, the 10 highest leaders of the Eternals were gathered.
The heads of this group, called the Society of the Ten Lords among the Eternals, were all those who reached the art of incarnation after a long life.
Murka Deina Raun, whom Sirone dealt with during the war, was also a master of the art of incarnation for over a thousand years, but his obsession with life led him to fall into the abyss.
On the other hand, the leaders of the Church of the Ten Lords were those who had enjoyed eternal life for at least 10,000 years, and were seekers who had overcome their lingering attachments to life and death.
“They say Garas was destroyed by giants.”
said the bald old man who was the only one sitting at the top of the rectangular table.
Her pupils were only a slippery black spot, and whenever she spoke, the bottom of her chin swelled like a balloon like a toad.
President of the Council of the Ten Lords Veron (age unknown) – Amitabh Banya.
The man sitting to Veron’s left said.
“The failure of selective evolution. All the angels have departed.”
His sculptural beauty, his blonde hair pulled back, his face was as pale as a corpse, and sharp fangs stuck in his gaping mouth as he spoke.
Faust (estimated age 13,000 years old), 3rd in the Order of the Ten Commandments, is a yaksha with a hundred ghosts.
said the man sitting across from Faust.
“I don’t care about Garas. The important thing is that Ankera has been erased. From now on, we must rule over humans.”
It was a solid body, with a round hump protruding from its head, and the teeth of a warlike, closed triangle were precisely meshed.
Huama (estimated age 17,000 years old), 4th in the Order of the Ten Commandments – Vajrapani Yaksha.
said the woman sitting across from Huama.
“I said Sirone, the light of Area 73. It seems like you fought against the Eternals during the war.”
Her hair was pitch-black, as if soaked in darkness, and her body, as smooth as a snake, was composed of only curves, as if the body’s boundaries had collapsed.
The silhouette itself was beautiful, but considering it was a human body, it felt grotesque.
Shura, 7th in the Order of the Ten Commandments (estimated age 10,200 years old) – Apostle Vanya.
“joy! Even if they were eternal, they were babies who hadn’t been weaned yet. No need to worry about anything but the maze. Surely Shura wasn’t afraid of you too?”
Shura countered Huama’s scolding.
“Who said what? I was just curious about a human named Sirone.”
Then, imagining Sirone, he tucked his snake-like tongue into his clothes and licked the curves of his body.
“It must be delicious.”
Faust, who confirmed that her tongue was quickly sucked into her mouth, added.
“It is not something to be overlooked. The annihilation of Archangel Faiel and the momentary flash of light right before the Ankera erasure were all achievements he accomplished. And above all…”
Huama slammed the table in frustration.
“So that’s it!”
“It’s an Ultima System.”
“Keep it!”
Huama turned her head with an indignant expression.
Even the Eternals had no way to refute the spirit of Gaia, who became their ancestor, as long as Sirone possessed it.
The woman sitting in the corner seat murmured.
“Are you a man who killed God…”
He had a ferocious impression like a wolf, but his face was strangely tender.
Her dark hair, like the rake of a wild horse, was clad in a messy turban, sticking out like a flame.
She was wearing rags like a tattered turban, but the clothes were so thick that the graves of her breasts were exposed.
He leaned his head on the hilt of his greatsword and raised one leg on a chair, showing the depths of his bare thighs.
Baknyeo, 9th in the Order of the Ten Commandments (estimated age 11,200 years old)-Sura Yacha.
Veron opened his mouth after silence.
“I can’t see that I killed him. Anyway, it was erased by Ra’s own will. However, it is true that the boy was the main variable in this war.”
Faust asked.
“Are you considering recruiting him into the Order of the Ten Presbyterians?”
said Shura.
“That is a bit hasty. First of all, Sirone’s incarnation is in a state of inactivity, so I can’t even hear his opinion. I won’t stop you if you go to < Under Coder >.”
“Anyway, you just want to eat him.”
Huama, who fired at Shura, gave her opinion.
“In the yard where Ra has been erased, there is no one to be wary of. If I had to put it that way, among angels and humans, Miro is the only one. Ultima, whatever, and being strong is everything.”
They have the power to rule the world with powerful incarnation techniques, but they have had to live under strict control until now.
What he could not do against Ankera, who erased the information of the Akashic Records itself.
But now that humans were free, the Eternals’ shackles were completely lifted.
said Faust.
“I will have to decide soon. Is Sirone, the only extant Ultima System, the light of District 73, an enemy or an ally of the Ten Commandments?”
As the silence grew longer, Veron proposed.
“Don’t do it by majority vote. After all, we are human. Now, those who regard Sirone as an enemy, raise your hands.”
After a while, 10 people gathered in the secret room expressed their thoughts with raised hands.
As Veron said, the voting results were extremely humane.

A black sphere was born on a snowy mountain 7,000 meters above sea level.
After a while, the group began to appear one by one, leading the maze.
“cold.”
Flew trembled and looked around.
It was the summit of a mountain range where even oxygen was sparse, and all I could see was a horizontal blizzard.
“If I summon a salamander, I’ll be able to hold on, but then an avalanche will happen.”
Zulu summoned a tier 3 monster, Kaidra.
Riding on a giant bird that could fly 7,000 kilometers in a day, the group quickly left the mountain range.
The destination was a village located 600 meters above sea level.
In the gloomy landscape covered with snow clouds, the road made of stones was damp and the clothes of the people were unfamiliar.
Suddenly, a gigantic bird landed on the small town, and all the residents stopped what they were doing and looked back.
Miro approached the old man with deep wrinkles.
“I will ask you something. Where is this?”
When the interpretation was made through Sein’s spirit world magic, the old man blinked and pointed to the mountain and said.
“Escato.”
It was a nonchalant reaction to seeing magic for the first time, but after learning where it was, Miro soon agreed.
“Ah Escato.”
It was the name of a mountain range in the northeast of the continent, meaning the center of the world.
“Once you entered the continent. So what to do? It was meant to be that we met like this, but a small dinner party?”
When no one responded to the joke, Miro licked his lips and got down to business.
“Let’s break up here for now. Be careful because there might be a chase. Have you all decided where to go?”
Gangnan said he was going to Zulu’s hideout with Gaold, and Shiina and Ethella were planning to go back to magic school.
Quan kept quiet about his whereabouts, and since Armin had already left the Ivory Tower, he was free to go anywhere.
The problem was the flu.
It was because the Magic Association she had to return to had already been taken over by the new head of the association, Lufist.
“Are you okay? Would you rather go with me?”
At Gangnan’s suggestion, Flew shook his head.
“no. First of all, I want to go back to the association. I’m worried about Isabelle-sama too.”
“What if they question what happened in heaven?”
“If you want something, you should let me know.”
All eyes were focused on Flew.
“I don’t know how much they’ll get from me, because Cage B’s already gone, but I’ll give them information if needed. I am also a certified mage belonging to the kingdom of Tormia.”
Kang Nan, who had heard that far, nodded.
“Yes, it is you.”
I didn’t include it in the project simply because I followed Gaold.
Knowing that he was a professional who puts his duty first under any circumstances, he was able to trust and entrust Sirone’s assistant.
“Be careful though. Rufist won’t easily reinstate you.”
“It’s something you have to accept. But would you stop using talented people like me?”
Kang Nan also laughed at Fleur’s joke.
To believe what you believe is right.
If a professional wizard thought so, no one could stop him.
“Please take good care of Gaold. From now on, I’ll be working for the Society…”
said Flew, squinting one eye.
“Once a comrade is a comrade forever.”
“Once a comrade is a comrade forever.”
Realizing the meaning behind Fleur’s words, Kang Nan looked back at Zulu and signaled to leave.
“People who go to the city can ride. I will take you.”
“Oh, then we too…”
Shiina and Etela decided to accompany them to the city.
Those who remained were not particularly busy, and they were not weak enough to struggle on rough terrain.
Armin looked up at Shiina and said.
“Shina, you will be a good teacher.”
“brother.”
Shiina understood Armin’s words.
Her pride was hurt when she was only used as bait to lure the Eternal Reflector into the project, but now she knew.
Why did Gaold want Etella more than he did?
“Not everyone has to fight. Not everyone needs to be strong. Go back to school and do what you want. To be a great teacher.”
Shiina made a friendly expression for the first time.
“okay. You should be happy too.”
Those words rather made Armin sad, but on the other hand, laughter leaked out.
My beloved sister is finally able to overcome the trauma of her past and start a new life.
“Then see you next time.”
Kaidra, the grotesque bird, soars into the sky, and Armin also ignores Quan and disappears with flicker magic.
So one by one they went their separate ways, and Arius, the last one left, approached Miro with Sirone on his back.
“Miro, what shall we do?”
Miro looked back at the world as if it were running.
“Well, where should I look around?”
The world she returned to after 20 years was full of unknowns, but to her, all the unknowns were just a playground.

After finishing the history search, Uorin opened his eyes.
“found!”
After a long journey through the entire history, what she found was a crack different from the base case.
Gando asked in an urgent voice.
“Did you find it?”
“I was born in the Middle East. Age between 15 and 30 years old. Gender is male. Her name is Akaze, but if she had already left her hometown, she could have changed it.”
When Uorin called for a wind chime, the door burst open and 30 people wearing owl masks were sucked in like smoke.
“Did you call?”
“Use your best espionage power to find it. Born in a tribe in the Akkadian Desert. My family died in the Oasis War and I am one of the survivors.”
That was the end of the information Uorin delivered.
It was a task to search the whole world with only approximate age and gender information, but it was well worth it.
“All right.”
Fengzhang passed away without a sound, and Wulin walked around the room biting her nails.
Ra descended to earth.
has only one purpose. To destroy humanity that builds chaos.
“Are you sure that Ra was born on this earth?”
“okay. You must find it before he takes action. If you can’t do that…”
Gando could imagine what Uorin couldn’t bear to say.
It is none other than the reincarnation of the Akashic Records.
The event that will happen when he finishes his judgment on this world will come to mankind as an unprecedented shock wave.
“A great disaster has come.”
“doesn’t care. Even a god cannot invade Theraje’s stronghold. We must be fully prepared.”
Uorin finally stopped walking and looked back at Gando.
“Gando is the opening of a new era.”
After Erase Guffin, Erase Anchera and this is the third and final reset.
It was called the Great Purification Period.
