Chapter 700,
Chapter 178. Deepening Concern (4)
Jin liked all of Bale’s sudden actions when he came to Kingelo’s new headquarters.
Zephyrin’s threat was unpleasant, and Orgal’s joke didn’t sound like a joke. Bale was coolly stepping out on his behalf.
Kingelo did not respond to Veil’s last words for a while, only his eyes wide open.
“Okay, Bale. Why don’t you be patient? I think you’re going to explode if you just mess with it.”
Jin said as if he was drying the veil, but in fact it was the opposite.
What Jin said now could have two effects at once.
The first is rather to stimulate Bale more, and the second is to show to Kingelo that he has tried to set Bale in his own way.
As expected, Bale screamed even more indignant at Jin’s words.
[Because it’s not!]
“No, no, you definitely lose. Orgal is the real demon king. So don’t make more trouble and stay still.”
As for Jin, I also wanted to see Orgal face off against Veil.
‘There is a high possibility that you won’t be able to see Orgal’s battle in detail during the decisive battle. I’ll have to focus entirely on Rosa.’
So there was nothing wrong with watching in advance how Orgal, who had regained his strength, fought when he had the chance. Because it will be on a different level from the time of the Black Emperor Terror.
[Ha Jin. This is because you really don’t know what you’re saying. Yes, he might be stronger than me. But I can feel it.]
“What?”
[He can’t kill me.]
“That’s natural. Are we temporary allies? You are one of the most important forces.”
[It’s not just that, it’s a more fundamental problem. He can’t kill me with the power he has. That’s why I want to hit even if I get hit.]
Jin looked at Orgal. As if to explain what this means.
[Unless there is the energy of creation or something equivalent, it is impossible to completely remove the traces of life. There are very rare beings like that… like the king of the Black Sea you dealt with in the past.]
“If you dare to add the modifier perfect, it means that only killing is impossible, but sealing and other things are possible. That’s why you guys didn’t even shine a nose when Gleec woke up…”
Jin, who recalled the Sword Emperor’s Temple, gritted his teeth. At that time, Kingelo demanded Jin’s loyalty as a condition for them to participate in the Gleeek War.
[Sir Veil, if you really want to fight me, I have no choice but to seal some of your power. To make sure there is no catastrophic trouble in our alliance. So Jin will dry it more actively.]
“Oh, I plan to do that. You are particularly unlucky today, Orgal.”
[Isn’t it common for each other?]
You can’t kill the traces of life without a spear or an energy equivalent to it.
Jin thought about that for a moment.
‘In the end, it also means that in order to kill Orgal in the future, I will definitely need the power of the creation.’
Considering the power that Orgal possessed in the first place, even if the characteristics of the power of the sun god were excluded, the power of the spearhead would of course be needed.
But there was one strange thing.
‘But that day at the seal… why did Bale admit defeat to me like that? According to Orgal, I wouldn’t be able to kill Veil.’
Looking at Orgal now, Bale was never the type to give in just because the opponent was stronger.
Veil has never met the sun god, but he is aware that he is a divine being, and he is arrogant and selfish.
‘Is it because he knew that I was Sir Sarah’s successor?’
It wasn’t something to worry about right now.
When Jin winked at him, Veil smirked and turned his eyes away from Orgal.
“At this rate, it seems that we have kept our promise to each other, Orgal. Now, as an ally, let’s talk about Rosa.”
[About why Rosa is being completed faster than I expected?]
“Yes. There are some strange things about Rosa’s behavior.”
[Tell me.]
“First of all, Rosa has become such a huge evil that she doesn’t even need powerful people like Lord Fadler who drove you halfway in the Kaldran snowfield. It’s hard to explain the basis, so I just felt it myself.”
[There’s no way you’re talking nonsense about this, so trust me. It’s not very impossible.]
“But Rosa is suddenly using Joshua again. He even made me feel more incompetent than before and he’s failed at all his recent assignments. I blocked them all. It is at this point that I find it strange.”
[You mean there’s no reason for a mischievous god to write such a trivial character?]
“Yes. Ever since I met him in Arkin, I’ve been thinking about it. What the hell is the reason for Rosa keeping such a delinquent by her side…”
After arranging her thoughts for a few seconds, Jin met Orgal’s eyes.
“I suddenly remembered what you said during our first meeting.”
– Her daughters only wish for one thing. The return of my old lover, Heluram.
-So you’re using humans as sacrifices?
– Exactly, it’s not human itself. Human flesh and bones are of course necessary, but the efficiency is not very good. Despair is real Only a high degree of pure despair can awaken Heluram.
despair.
Jin had thought of the assumption that perhaps Rosa was using Joshua to obtain pure despair.
When Jin explained this, Orgal’s eyes widened as if he was a little surprised.
“Otherwise, I thought there was no reason for Rosa to keep that trash around.”
[…That’s a really interesting story, Gene Runkandel. If that’s the case, the speedy completion of the bust probably has nothing to do with it.]
“Does it seem to you that my thoughts are correct?”
[I forgot about Runcandel’s 2nd Horseman because he didn’t have much presence. Human jealousy is sometimes so great that even the gods are startled. If the size of his inferiority complex is deep and dark enough to be meaningful to his bust, it is possible. It’s an area I hadn’t thought of at all.]
“Then… does that mean that it’s rather uncomfortable for Rosa to do Joshua’s job well?”
But I couldn’t deliberately lose to him so that Rosa wouldn’t harvest Joshua’s despair.
If he succeeds in whatever Rosa entrusts him with, it means Jin and the people around him will get hurt or die.
There is only one solution.
The goal is to find Joshua and eliminate him completely. So that Rosa can’t use him at all.
[I guess so.]
“The only way to deal with it would be to find Joshua and completely annihilate him.”
[It won’t be easy since the evil spirits are directly protecting it.]
It was a matter of course.
There was no way that Rosa would just neglect a person who had such a use. The protection would be so subtle that Joshua would not recognize it, but so meticulous that no one could ever end it.
That was also why Bale missed Joshua in the forest of Aakin.
“Protection protection… ugh.”
Suddenly, Jin was overcome by a terrible feeling of vomiting.
because it was disgusting.
The fact that there are human beings who cannot escape the arms of the person who made them that way even after falling into a doll for production of despair.
The fact that there is a mother who sends her children from abyss to a deeper abyss and doesn’t mind if she needs them.
[Are you okay?]
Jin nodded, barely holding back the mad gagging.
“Okay. Anyway, whether my assumption is correct or not, Joshua must be eliminated before the decisive battle.”
[I think so too. After all, if the day comes when Joshua Runkandel is alive and doesn’t despair, it will be your despair. You’re more important to the Mischievous God than Joshua… your despair will be far better material than his. Awakening Heluram…]
Jin wondered whether despair was really being used to bring Hellulam back.
The Rosa he saw a while ago didn’t wake up Helluram, but seemed to be preparing to become a disaster herself.
Most of all, Jinn Rosa is not depicted devoting her allegiance to Heluram like the Prophet. Who the hell is Rosa going under?
‘Damn it… My worries just keep getting deeper.’
if you’re lucky
It was the fact that Orgal had just regained some of her old powers.
“Then, your job has been decided from now on, Orgal. Now that you’ve been resting in the hospital bed, it’s time to move.”
[Are you asking me to kill Joshua?]
“You’re not going to tell me that it’s difficult to regain that much power, right?”
[Well, it probably depends on how much your chest cares. But even if you didn’t tell me, I was thinking I should look for him. If the protection of the evil god is deep enough that I can’t help it with my own strength, I’ll just check it first. Is his despair really being used by the evil god?]
“Okay, it makes me feel more and more worthwhile to bring the veil. Expect meaningful news the next time we meet.”
As Jin stood up to return, Orgal waved his hand and opened the steel portal. The territorial waters of Tikan were visible through the portal.
[Use it if you want.]
On the surface, it looked like consideration, but Jin recognized that this was more of a warning masquerading as consideration.
As an ally, if you do something stupid, you can find Tikan in an instant at any time.
Unlike before, Orgal seemed to be able to open the dimensional gate without much effort.
“There is a ship that came aboard. As you well know, it is teleportation.”
When Jin responded with the same warning, Orgal smiled.
“what. As you said, each other is common. Then see you next time.”
Later, when he got out of Kingelo’s new headquarters and boarded the Red Owl, Veil looked at Jin as if he was curious.
“Hey Jin.”
“why?”
“The reason I lost to you in the first place was because of the fire you had.”
Jin was about to ask why he was suddenly saying that, but he remembered thinking about the reason at the conference room in Kingelo earlier.
“okay? I was just curious about it. I didn’t think it was just because I was stronger, but if it was because of the fire, was that right?”
“No, you don’t seem to know, but the fire you have is very special. And that fire will work on him too. So someday, let’s defeat him together with me. Understand?”
