Chapter 1096 Episode 256 Morganiel (5)
“You think you understand?”
“Oh, is this a good one?”
Luna and Murakan shouted at the same time.
“I can’t say I know everything. But one thing feels clear. “When I come here, I will be able to unleash this energy.”
“The black energy forming this space?”
“…Yes, sister.”
As soon as he touched the entrance, Jin realized that fact.
Not spiritual energy, but black energy.
That power cannot yet be named. As far as Jin and Changseong know, this black energy has never appeared in the world before.
“Then there is a high possibility that it is a power that Solderet prepared for Jin. Brother Jin, how do you feel about that power? We still can’t feel anything from the black energy that makes up this space. “It’s just darkness.”
“It’s not Spirituality or Spirituality, but a higher level of power… I think it’s Brother Tushin.”
The Changseongs’ eyes widened. Murakan in particular was so shocked that his mouth dropped open.
aura.
The status of the power that symbolizes Solderet has always been the highest. Aura and magical power, as well as the Thunder Power of the Netherworld or any powers handled by the highest gods, were bound to be inferior to Spirit Power when compared purely in terms of status.
The power used by the sun god selves was superior to spiritual energy in some ways, but even that could not be clearly expressed as being superior.
Only the power of the perfectly revived ‘Kingelo’ can be said to be of a higher rank than Spiritual Energy. At least, everyone who knows Reiki well has perceived it that way.
However, I could not believe that it was a power that was greater than that.
“There’s no way the youngest would say nonsense… First of all, it’s good news. If you gain that power, you will become stronger, right?”
Will it become stronger?
For some reason, Jin couldn’t readily answer Luna’s extremely simple question.
‘…become stronger. It’s a power that doesn’t match those human standards.’
god.
Although they are commonly called gods, in reality, they are not merely immortal beings born from the energy of the sun god after his death, but are so transcendent that they cannot help but be called gods.
The darkness Jin was feeling right now was such a force.
As a human being, I wonder if it is even possible to hold such power in my hands, to the point where I feel fear. I felt like I could no longer be human if I embraced this darkness.
My hands were shaking.
I suddenly felt more afraid of myself than the tough enemies called Keliak and Malugia. However, even in the midst of my fear, I was able to intuit one thing.
‘If you grab this power, you can win. them. At least it is clear that we can fight it much more easily than now.’
Therefore, it was not a matter of choice.
It had to be accepted. Once you give up being human, a war that could only rely on vague hope becomes a fight worth fighting.
‘What am I going to become?’
Everything I have accumulated so far as a human, as a warrior, and as a jinn.
Force, power, honor.
And people, people who care and love.
It seemed like everything would suddenly be swept away by this darkness and disappear somewhere. To a realm that human Jin Runkandel can never know, somewhere that human Jin Runkandel can never love.
“jin.”
“ah…! father?”
Siron’s firm grip gently shook Jin’s shoulders. Before Jin knew it, his entire body was covered in cold sweat and he was out of breath.
“You are afraid.”
“…You looked embarrassed.”
“What are you so afraid of?”
“I do not know.”
“Jean, I don’t know exactly what you just saw. But anyway, in the end, we all end up in one of two ways. Win or lose. Fight or stop. Die or live. “No matter what you become, this fact does not change.”
Jin was still breathing hard.
“If we put our minds to it, we can kill hundreds of thousands with one sword, no. It could kill millions of people. The fear felt by those who could be swept away and disappear at any time is no less than what you feel right now. But you must not be terrified like them. Do you know what the reason is?”
Jin did not answer but made eye contact with Siron. Although he spoke as if reprimanding, Siron was smiling.
“There is no particular reason. “It’s just because I don’t want to see it.”
“yes?”
“You are my son, and I have never given you love. Maybe that’s why seeing you shaking right now makes me feel uncomfortable. It’s probably a feeling of regret, guilt, or something else that I’ve forgotten for a long time. This father has just finished off Morganiel and fulfilled his destiny. Don’t ruin my mood. Should I struggle with guilt?”
It was absurd logic. Jin blinked, feeling like he had been hit on the head ten times with a hammer.
“You’re quite shameless, father.”
Luna was startled by those words and looked at Jin and Shiron alternately. It was just a joke, but it was something she had never imagined for one of her brothers to talk to Siron like this. It was the same when Siron made this joke.
‘You probably don’t think it’s just a joke. ‘My father has been feeling sorry for us ever since he overcame the devil.’
Soon, Luna looked at Siron and opened her mouth.
“Youngest one is right, father. “You just struggle with guilt.”
“When the head of the family and the head of the small family are having a conversation, how dare the rider intervene?”
“Huh…”
“Anyway, you, the youngest, have no choice but to accept my shameless request.”
“Why is that again?”
“You are the head of the small family and I am the head of the family, so it is so. “Follow orders.”
Shiron, Jin, and Luna all burst into laughter at the same time.
Suddenly, Jin’s breathing returned to calmness, and his shaking eyes seemed to have calmed down again.
“It’s better, Dad. Anyway, if something goes wrong or strange after receiving this power, the people here will take care of it, so I made a fuss. Let’s go back first. This is what I felt when I put my hand on the door. As expected, you can only enter if you have both the body of the first head of the family and Barisada. “We will have to wait for Ameris to lift the curse.”
“It’s a strange thing. “Soldieret said he chose you a thousand years ago, so why did he make those two things necessary?”
“Now that I think about it, it’s strange.”
“If Solderet is in there, be sure to ask.”
“Yes, father. “If we can go in together, let’s go together.”
“That would be fine too.”
Shiron, Jin, and Luna. They seemed more comfortable together than ever. Murakan and Ban exchanged glances and shrugged their shoulders.
“Tch, that’s a shame. Siron, because of you I missed my chance for revenge.”
“What does that mean? “Murakan.”
“There have been a few times when I suddenly lost my mind like a kid. It was mainly because of memories from a thousand years ago. Every time, the kid would hit me on the back of the head to make me come to my senses. So I thought it was finally my turn this time. “I would have given him a very harsh blow.”
“If you’re disappointed, don’t miss the next opportunity.”
“How dare the head of the family speak informally to the Guardian Dragon?”
“I told you to do it.”
Soon after, the Changseongs were able to go outside the black line again. Morganiel’s realm still glowed bright yellow, and the air fortress La Prarosa was still there in the sky.
I walked carefully for three hours on the way back, but sped up on the way back. The Changseongs returned to their original positions in an instant.
[Oh, are you here, old man?]
Ozdock ran out and bowed his head to the spearmen. He was away from the battlefield while Morganiel and the expedition team were in pursuit, and was discovered by a golden ship on guard and brought here.
[Elder, it is Ozdok’s lifelong regret that he was not able to see in person the great moment when you killed all five kings of the Black Sea. I apologize, old man!]
Instead of flattering like usual, Ozdock was actually shedding tears of joy. Naturally, for him, the Black Sea expedition was the most overwhelmingly difficult experience of his life.
“Thank you for your hard work, Ozdock.”
[Hehe, what trouble did I have? Thanks to all the elders, even a small creature like me can live a valuable life… Master! (At this point, Ozdoc grabs Jin’s hand) It’s also thanks to you, Master! It’s been a while since I’ve been greeting you, Master!]
“I heard from Luna what a great role you played in the expedition. If you want anything, just say it. “I will listen.”
In fact, Ozdock played a very key role in the Black Sea expedition. Without him, Siron would have needed a much more painful time to overcome the demonic fire.
[Really!? Then, my inner altar that you took last time…! Of course, it’s not because I have other feelings, it’s just because I feel empty. Sniff, sniff. Wait, I can smell my sweets from here… Master? Did you really melt my inner sword into the sword?]
“Hmm, sorry. If you say something else…”
Ozdock cried for a moment and then nodded.
[It’s okay… I’m going to be Runkandel’s butler from now on, so even if I don’t have a naedan, there’s no problem in living, ugh! Um, what is that!?]
Suddenly, Ozdock let out a sigh and pointed his finger at the sky.
‘…Dimensional door!?’
The portal that suddenly opened in the sky had a similar shape to the one seen in the last battle in the Empire.
The Milky Way appears to flow beyond the door, just like Malugia’s eyes. But she wasn’t the one who escaped from it.
It was the fleet of the Demon Gods.
