EP.138 Slanted Ceiling and Mountains of Laughing Corpses – The finish
Jizan was in Shay’s hand.
Originally, he had to take a test, but for some reason, Jizan remained silent instead of showing his image. Instead, he held his breath, leaving the weight entirely to the regressor.
I don’t know why, but it’s a good thing. Shay can lift Jizan now.
“Jizan…!”
It was Shay who had a gut feeling of victory, but Ji-sun didn’t seem to think so. As if trying to snatch Jizan out of Shay’s grip, he reached out and charged.
But Shay wasn’t nervous.
In Jiseon’s hands, Jizan was a great power that could tilt mountains and split the ground.
At the same time, it was also a counter to the existence of Jiseon itself. Due to her nature, her body’s strength can never surpass Jizan’s.
‘If this is in my hand, it’s a sure win!’
You should see a difference in power. So that he who does not fall may give up and give up.
Shay shouted, holding out Jizan.
“branch line! stop!”
Jiseon answered with a foot cloud.
The feet shake. Before the shock arrived, Shay hurriedly pinned Jizan to the ground. The vibration that flowed through the earth was swallowed up by Jizan.
However, it became defenseless. Jiseon approached with an empty upper body.
The only thing that can move now is the angel.
‘I can’t help it.’
Shay lowered her stance while holding the cherry blossom.
‘Let’s cut down and calm down.’
Originally, Shay was the world’s last hero. A weapon master who wields both a heavenly sword and an earthly sword at the same time. Her skill was not overwhelming compared to others, but there was no one who could draw out the power of the two swords as well as she.
Overlapping Jizan and Thousand Cherry Blossoms. A thin and sharp sharp sword is placed on top of the black and heavy heavy sword. Two swords that were so different that they seemed to be on opposite sides became one like swords meeting swords.
The essence of the weightless sword, the heavenly cherry tree, is the high sky. A thin sharp sword forged by compressing space.
The essence of Jizan, a sword without recoil, is a strong mountain. A thick stick gathered by gripping the ground.
Until now, only angels have been used, but the firmament can only be built with the earth, and the earth changes and flows with the sky.
I wouldn’t know if Jizan was in the opponent’s hands. If it was in Shay’s hands. If both swords had entered her, who was humanity’s strongest power on the verge of destruction.
Even if it’s a tired and hard body.
Victory is decided.
Using the Jizan as a scabbard, she overlaps the cherry blossoms.
It blows out the compressed space at once.
Jizan, the sword without recoil, is the heaviest battery in the world. The power of the heavenly angel was completely shot forward.
Cheonji Sword. Oh.
split the horizon.
Parallel lines that seem unreachable in life eventually become one when they reach eternity. At least it looks that way.
that far away place. There, the sky and the earth meet and draw a peaceful line. beautiful and majestic. A straight line that must have existed from the beginning.
split it lengthwise
The space was cut obliquely.
Jiseon’s right arm, pitch-black darkness, heavy air, even Tantalus. I couldn’t stand the slash that surged like lightning.
My ears were deafened. From the abyss surrounded by walls on all sides, a distant sound is heard.
The slanted ceiling split and the sky reflected through the cracks.
As if the sun had just set,
the purple sky could be seen briefly through the gap. Chromatic colors that appear only before light turns to darkness.
The sky, which had been visible for a moment, was closed as the ceiling, which had been fluctuating, collapsed again.
“…under.”
Jiseon stumbled and stepped back. A belated sound came from the pile of shichet.
He was the right hand of Ji-seon, who had been cut by a cherry blossom.
The right arm, which rolled away from its owner, stopped when it caught on the corpse that just popped out.
Shay took a deep breath and said, hiding the feeling of exhaustion running through her body.
“Don’t resist, Jiseon. If you swear to stay still, I’ll attach your right arm.”
In fact, I don’t have the energy left in the cherry tree, and I don’t even have the strength to lift the jizan that I put in.
Originally, it is a battle where the shameless side wins. Shay said, feigning composure.
“The cut is clean, so if you treat it well, it can be attached as it is…”
“Why…!”
Jiseon shouted with a sorrowful face.
“Why is the future all yours…!”
Shay shut her mouth. It was clear that he was handing those words to Seonghwangcheong, but it was because Shay also had a stabbing part.
If Shay had not come, Jiseon would have obtained Jizan. And he would have marched alone to bury the sins of Seonghwangcheong.
So Shay got rid of that future.
She used the means of regression rather than prophecy or foreknowledge, but in this future, Shay took away her future.
“I never took a break! Didn’t even spare my life…! Even though I compromised, I never violated the norm! If so, what about them? He killed the Grand Master at will and hid the fact, enjoying success and pretending to be upright…! We were just struggling to survive…!”
‘Uh hmm. At that time, Jiseon’s claim was true.’
Honestly, I’m sorry, and I think that Seonghwangcheong was too much.
But what can I do?
Seonghwangcheong is not a completely transparent organization. Even Shay, who was involved with him in large and small ways during the return, could not yet conclude that he knew all about their inner world.
Even so, the will to prevent destruction was the same, so Shay sided with them.
“All of that is allowed just because you know the future? Nonsense! Because it becomes the embers of war, you shouldn’t even ask for that sin? Sounds outrageous! Should we just surrender to the predetermined future…!”
It was a terrible scream, like vomiting blood. The regressor moderately sympathized with that feeling.
But I won’t regret or be sad about that.
No matter how much you scream, it will be better than the world perishing if left alone.
Ji-seon, who poured out her emotions like that, mumbled as if she was weak.
“Kill him.”
So the regressor frowned.
“no. If you die, the world will be ruined.”
“Because Seonghwangcheong was hit? The world is collapsing because of it? Are they really the pillars that sustain this world?”
“you! It’s going to be shit when you die!”
the regressor exclaimed angrily.
“Your follower or military citizen. The scattered Earth mother believers! Either I’ll avenge you or I won’t cooperate anymore! Some argue why Seonghwangcheong killed such a high-minded person so brutally!”
Ji-seon’s death did not become a spark of war for nothing. First of all, she was a brigadier general of the military, even nominally, a hero to the military and people, and a representative of the Jimo religion.
“If you’re going to die please, die quietly alone! If a big man like you dies like a martyr, no one will be able to stop you from then on!”
Ji-seon sneered at the regressor’s words and replied.
“…Now, even if I wanted to, it was impossible. I’ve lost my qualifications In the end, Grand Master… must have failed to acknowledge me. I just… space for us…”
“I don’t know anything else. If it’s a space for you, I’ll make it after I prevent destruction. Hold on to your life until then.”
“Kuh-kuh…”
Ji-seon staggered and turned around. I slowly climbed up the mountain of corpses, holding the severed shoulder blades with the qi-gong.
“You have to take your right arm! I’ll put it on!”
“Leave it there.”
Ji-sun said without even looking at him.
“This is the path I have taken and what I have achieved. I won’t go back. I will not tear it down. I do not regret my choice.”
“Anyway, stubbornness…”
“And…”
Jiseon muttered with a weak face.
“…The Grand Master has entrusted you with power, so you should take over that duty, Grand Master.”
“So even if it’s not a great warrior.”
Ji-seon did not reply and staggered up the mountain of corpses. He looked like an ascetic wandering about in search of suffering.
It was when Shay looked at Jiseon’s back.
Kurleung. An ominous sound came from above. Shay quickly raised her head. The slanted ceiling of Tantalus’s earth was screaming.
‘Will it collapse?’
When Shay nervously squeezed Jizan’s handle.
From the other side of the crack, Tyrkanjaka broke through the concrete and popped out. Landing under a mountain of corpses, Tirkanjaka looked around and shouted.
“phew! Hugh?”
Fortunately, the ceiling didn’t seem to collapse. Shay let out a sigh of relief.
“When I saw you earlier, you were fine.”
“It’s good…! Where are you?”
“I threw this Jizan from the top of the mountain earlier. What the hell is that bastard doing…”
The one that bounced off the cherry blossoms? Suppose it could happen by chance.
Did you see through the stealth? Let’s assume that it happened through psychological warfare.
“Something is strange in the first place. The one that healed your heart… and the one that unsealed this keepsake of Jizan. I don’t know if I passed Jizan’s test or not, but the Jizan he gave me.”
In the previous episode, Shay grabbed Jizan and took the test in the image. The Jizan given in front of you at the moment when 300,000 people were buried alive. choices made there.
Shay’s method was simple.
He pulled out Jizan and attacked the king.
It’s in the image, but the king is all-intelligible. I couldn’t win no matter what I did. However, the regressor thought it was training and challenged the king until he succeeded.
In the end, it was only after the strength of the king that Simsang had prepared was exhausted. Jizan, who had nothing more to offer, reluctantly lent his strength. Although he couldn’t use the inherent power of earth magic, it showed perfect performance as a ‘weapon’.
Shay was fully satisfied with the performance, but…
“The power I feel right now is earth magic.”
Shay was now convinced. That he would be able to fully use Jizan’s power.
I’m not sure how this happened.
“The guru? How did it go?”
“I neutralized it for now. Kneeling at the peak over there…”
Rumble.
Again, an ominous sound came from above. A piece of shattered concrete hit them on the shoulder. Shay closed her mouth and looked up at the ceiling.
“Hey, Tyrkanjaka. Apparently, the ceiling is a little strange… It doesn’t seem to be more inclined than before.”
Rumble.
The foreboding became a reality.
The crack runs like a galloping horse toward the ends of the earth. Rumble Kurung. A thunder-like sound echoed, and lightning-shaped scars were carved on the ceiling. Crushed concrete pours down like raindrops, and collapsed rubble falls like hailstones.
The ceiling is collapsing.
Well, Jiseon generously used it, Tyrkanjaka broke through, and finally Shay’s technique split the land. I made this mess, but it’s even weirder that I’m fine.
Shay exclaimed hastily.
“Tirkanjaka! Catch the falling debris!”
“It is unreasonable to support all this earth with shadows! hey where are you? Come to my side…!”
“no! help me. Blow up this ceiling! It’s better than letting this lump of earth fall…!”
Shay immediately made a stepping cloud and spurred the ground and climbed on top of it. Then, after holding Jizan with both hands, he lifted it above his head and brought it to the ceiling that was gradually sinking.
“Are you going to lift the ceiling with that sword? Impossible!”
“No!”
“…does it work? how?”
“This Jizan is a sword with great weight! Even though it looks like this, it must be heavy enough to be compared to Tantalus!”
“But how are you holding it?”
Shay didn’t do anything useless to explain powers.
“That’s why I like this Jizan!”
“There are some strange swords in the fortress…”
Tyrkanjaka muttered curiously. In fact, it was a memento made 100 years before Tirkanjaka’s birth, but no one cared about that fact now.
“Ego. Now that I can use earth magic. I will lift the whole land! It’s possible now…!”
I glanced over and heard a butterfly and a baby barking in the distance. Rash and Callis Nabi and Aji were close to the opposite wall, relatively safe from the rubble.
“I’ll clean up the big chunks. Just ask for the little things!”
“OK!”
As the slanted ceiling collapsed, most of the lights on the rim were broken, scratched, and shattered. The light gradually faded.
In proportion to that, numerous black knights rose from all sides. Darkness gathered around them and all of them turned into gigantic figures.
Shadows vary in size depending on the position of the light. The giant black knights, covered in shadows three times their size, picked up the falling debris as ordered. A piece of concrete the size of a man’s head slowed as if submerged as it touched the shadow.
“Okay go!”
dry ground column.
Shay, who was about to swing the sword like that, suddenly stopped her arm.
Jizan must have weighed the same as Taesan, but the weight of Tantalus was also significant to Taesan. A tremendous weight was placed on the hands of the regressor.
Jizan did not advance.
“Aww…!”
The exhausted body resisted violently. The lack of energy let out a scream.
Still, the regressor gritted his teeth and drew out his strength.
Although the body does not move well, the qigong of the regressor exerts its power at such times.
A qigong cheonban-gyeong that engraves motions on the body and makes it move even forcibly.
Thousand-round attack. vertical cut.
“Hey hey!”
The regressor swung his sword, and Jizan responded to his will.
The land that makes up Tantalus is built with blessed concrete. It’s the result of being engraved with earth magic.
Even though it was concrete, the reason why Ji-seon could easily use earth magic.
Therefore, the person holding the jizan can move this tantalus.
The Grand Master’s last remaining will echoed. right after that.
Woo woo woo.
To put it bluntly, it was like snapping your fingers and knocking out a steel door. Something that would normally be impossible.
However, the uniqueness of this land and the power of Jizan. and the design of Tantalus.
Thanks to all of that interlocking, Shay’s attempt was a success. Shay swung Jizan and ‘blowed away’ Tantalus.
The slanted ceiling gradually recedes. The dimly twinkling lights on the rim let us know that this land was rising. The twinkling lights gradually got smaller.
A landmark has risen by the power of a single human being. As the slanted ceiling recedes, it briefly regains its equilibrium, then tilts in the opposite direction this time.
The land of Tantalus, which had been turned upside down like that, eventually began to turn over. The artificial lighting, which was almost all broken, disappeared scattering a cluster of lights.
The sky came through the gap.
