Tomb of the Gods (3)
About 10 minutes later, Gaold regained consciousness.
Although his hair had been bleached white, his eyes looked clearer than ever.
Miro asked.
“How are you feeling?”
“are you okay. “I recovered 100 percent.”
A human couldn’t do that, but I thought that the current Gaold might be able to do it.
‘I’m not losing my memory.’ This meant that they were concentrating on the battle, and the fundamental cause was probably the maze.
It was an exciting time for the team.
‘As long as he is sane, Gaold is invincible.’
Arius said, looking down the huge hole in Ymir’s dream.
“This is deep level 5. You could say that now is the start of full-scale exploration. Do you want to go?”
“of course. “Let’s leave now.”
At that time, Mong-ah said.
“for a moment. “I’d rather stay here.”
Sirone asked.
“why?”
Mongah’s ability, Nightmare, was able to be fully effective even in deep depths.
“If Ymir is truly offended by this nightmare, then I would prefer to remain here.”
Arius was convinced.
“okay. Ymir invited us into the depths to destroy the nightmare. Therefore, there is a high possibility that the egoist will not activate.”
“Because you want it.”
“yes. On the other hand, if we get rid of nightmares, the egoist will attack us in an instant. Mong-ah is right. “Someone has to keep this nightmare going.”
Ruber said to Sirone.
“There is no door, so you have to go through Drimo to return. “I think it’s the right decision for Mong-ah to stay.”
“Then we go down. Mong, I’ll ask you a favor.”
Mongah nodded and following Arius, Sirone and the others jumped down the hole.
It was the 5th level of Ymir’s mental depth. A week has already passed since Sirone left for numerous worlds with his team.
Meanwhile, a wind of blood from the demon world blew through the world.
The number of deaths increased day by day, and the screams of emotional illness continued in the central continent.
“Kill! Ouch! “I’d rather kill you!”
People who had nothing more to throw away were forced to completely abandon themselves to suffering.
Some lucky people met Sirone and regained some peace for a moment, but it was only a stopgap measure.
Sirone bit her lip.
‘If this continues, everyone will die.’
The earthquake, the cold wave, and the scorching sun did not seem as terrible as the emotional illness.
‘We have to find a way.’
Sirone’s gaze was directed somewhere in the central continent.
World Health Organization.
Sirone looked at the patients through the glass windows installed along the long hallway.
All of them, their bodies pressed together, screamed, but no sound came out.
“The capacity is also limited.” Sirone looked back at Seriel.
Although less than two weeks had passed since the emotional illness occurred, my face had suffered a lot in the meantime.
“In fact, it has no meaning other than confinement and experimentation. “No anesthetic will work.”
That’s what the devil’s egg is.
“Don’t be too pessimistic. There must be a way. “I am also looking for you in every possible way.”
At the end of the hallway stood Ceriel’s superior, Tenos.
“You came early.”
Tenos nodded and said.
“I can’t say good morning. I was urgently evacuated at dawn. “The whole family is dead.”
The place Tenos pointed to was not a hospital room, but a small room where patients were counseled.
When I looked through the window on the door, I saw a man with his head down.
“Is that Klein?”
There were traces of self-harm even in areas exposed through his clothes, and his face was as bony as a corpse.
But… he looked somewhat relieved.
“okay. A farmer who lived on the outskirts of Bashka. According to the epidemiological investigation, it is believed that he is probably the first person to be infected with emotional disease.”
Sirone was speechless.
“It doesn’t really have any meaning, though. It has already spread through the central continent and into the southern continent. Every day, countless nobles come to this detention facility with bundles of money.”
Tenos lit a cigarette in front of a place with a sign saying no smoking.
“You must be coming to the headquarters of medicine with some kind of hope. I wonder if at least the pain can be reduced. “But we haven’t yet found a way to relieve the pain, let alone a cure.”
“They were all high-ranking officials or royals.” Tenos scoffed.
“Isn’t it obvious? I’m lucky. I came here with the name of being the first infected person. Or, if you look at it that way, should I say it’s bad luck? “Now I can no longer commit suicide.”
In some cases, the expert’s words made the listener uncomfortable, so Seriel quickly interrupted the conversation.
“Let’s go in first.”
Even as the door opened, Klein didn’t even react, let alone move.
The dilated pupils and gaping mouth seemed somehow happy.
‘The pain is gone.’ Something had been thrown away, and Sirone had no interest in hearing what it was.
From Sirone’s perspective, the reason why emotional illness was more dangerous than other demons was not because of the pain.
‘What is truly dangerous is destruction.’
This was why the World Health Organization called emotional illness the Emotion Scale.
“For example, material things are important for emotions.”
Tenos said.
“Matter is life. Food, clothes, and a place to rest. Of course, the sum of all that is money. “Seekers like you might be considered insignificant,” Ceriel drew a line.
“I don’t trifle with Sirone.”
“Anyway… Those who have a lot have a lot to throw away. Plus, he’s clever. I don’t throw away anything to suppress the pain. They say they sort it into small pieces and use it one by one. But this farmer couldn’t do either one.”
At first glance, it is said that after 3 days of being infected with the emotional disease, there was nothing left.
After that it was just terrible pain.
And this morning he lost his child.
“It’s not just interest. “I thought it might at least reduce the pain.”
Sirone’s target of suppressing emotional illness with the Miracle Stream was even researchers.
If there was a way to relieve patients of their suffering, the World Health Organization would become a battlefield.
Sirone, who understood what Tenos wanted, shook his head firmly.
“The standards are clear. It is used as the fastest way to stabilize the world. “If you focus on emotions, it will only add to the confusion.”
“I guess so.”
There was no way that a country’s royal family or minister would know the mystery of Sirone and leave it alone.
‘But…
Tenos had Klein in his eyes.
‘If the Yahweh of the world had not come here, that man could have been me.’
Klein opened his mouth.
“Please kill me.”
Seriel walked over and patted his shoulder.
“It was an accident. “Mr. Klein had already lost his senses after three days of pain.”
“I should have died. “Even if I had gone crazy, I should have died.”
“First, relax.” Klein raised his head.
“I have no intention of living. What experiments do they do when they come here? do it. Do whatever it takes. “You can do whatever you want, whether you cut open my stomach or take out what’s in my head.”
There was cold silence.
The reason why Seriel and Tenos are silent is because they honestly had such expectations.
‘There are limits to conducting experiments on nobles. Even senior members of the temple are hospitalized here. When a cure comes out, they are the first to get better.’
Seriel suddenly had this thought.
Even though the world is heading towards catastrophe, seeing that we have to consider these things makes us wonder, ‘Is it still worth living for humans?’ Since it was a problem that could not be changed anyway, Seriel got rid of distracting thoughts and focused again.
‘Clain is believed to be the first infected person.’ Since he had already lost his family and it was his responsibility, he would do anything.
‘I have a few hypotheses I’d like to check. At least a live sex experiment with a banned substance…
Seriel shook her head.
‘Let’s not lose our reason. The more urgent the situation, the more important the rules are.’
After regaining her peace, she finished poisoning Klein.
“My heart is grateful. However, the World Health Organization, according to the 13th Holy War Convention…
“Please!”
Klein fell down in tears.
“I feel like I’m going crazy because I’m so angry. I want revenge on this damn disease. And to me too! Please write me!”
Seriel looked at Sirone’s eyes.
‘Human experiment.’
It may already be happening in the shadows, but the value of the name of a world organization was on a different level.
“If I don’t want to use it, I’d rather die in a place with no one around. “I don’t want to live in terrible pain anymore.”
Sirone asked Tenos.
“How effective will it be?”
“You might fail. However, in data collection, the quality and quantity are different. After all, this is a place where the world’s best biologists gather.”
“It must not lead to death.”
“I can’t guarantee. “You could die.”
“Even if that were the case, you should not proceed with the experiment knowing that it could result in death.”
Only then did Tenos turn his head.
“What are you thinking?”
Sirone approached Klein, who was on the ground, and made eye level with him.
“It can be difficult. “Are you really prepared?”
“You mean determination? Ask me to do anything now. “ I will do anything
.”
Sirone nodded.
“is it so. I will follow your will. “Humanity will owe you a great debt.”
Sheriel shouted.
“Shirone, what are you doing now…!”
At that time, Sirone raised both hands and brought up the Miracle Stream’s smoke abundantly.
As a ball of light gathered from the sky slowly descended, Klein opened his mouth in a daze.
He had never seen magic.
“What is this…
“I forgive your sins.” As the light of agape descended through Klein’s body, the incubation period of the emotional illness was extended.
“You won’t have to suffer from emotional illness in the future. My heart goes out to you for your determination. Are you still willing to take the experiment? “Even if you say no, my opinion will not change.”
A fire burned in Klein’s eyes.
“I lost my wife and killed my child. I want to atone. “It never changes.”
Seriel’s eyes became warm, but Tenos still asked with a stern expression.
“Didn’t you tell the patient you wouldn’t use that ability?”
“The standards are the same. However, Mr. Klein is no longer a patient hospitalized here.”
Sirone stood up and continued speaking.
“He is someone who risks his life to fight for humanity, just like me and Seriel Tenos.” Tenos raised his glasses.
‘The fastest way to stabilize the world. Is this Yahweh’s standard?’ It felt like my blood was boiling for the first time in a long time.
“Please, Seriel. Please make a cure. “At least a way to reduce the pain.”
Seriel closed her mouth tightly and nodded.
‘I do it. I will definitely do it. ‘Because it’s the only thing that allows me to breathe comfortably.’
On that day, a team unknown to the outside world was created at the World Health Organization.
