Sword Pilgrim

Episode 212

Pong.

The sound of water rang softly.

I cast my fishing rod and sat on a chair to watch the river flow.

The swaying water illuminated the sunlight during the day and the moon at night. For several days, while Demetri was trying to make up his mind, he threw down his fishing pole and looked at the river.

It didn’t really mean anything. It was also because there was nothing to do while waiting for him.

The day I dyed the holy grail with my own and faced the wrath of the gods.

I just drifted aimlessly through the water like a hook without a bait.

It is a kind of wandering.

From the first time I set foot here, my goal was clear, and my walking steps were progressive and endlessly growing my strength.

No matter which situation I reached, I had a clear idea of where to go.

This is because I am the one who designed and created this continent.

But at this very moment.

I was lost when something I had never invented came up close.

The suppressed questions whirled through my head, and a feeling of desolation creeping up from the bottom simmered all over my body.

challenger. god. Corruption and dragons.

Continental feat. and Carpe.

God gave an oracle, and from this I became an achievement on the continent.

Of course, Carpe, who I worked for, is in crisis, and I can’t let it go, so I’m losing my position.

Meanwhile, Hook-Mumen’s former Pope.

He meets Demetri and asks for help in creating a sacred object.

[Are you worried?]

“A little bit.”

When you roll your eyes, the upper ranks of the Ashen Legion.

A female knight with black iron armor and gray aura flowing from her toes to her head.

Niall was by his side.

[It will be fine.]

“Why do you think that?”

[Carpe is strong. If they were weak, they would have perished right away. Besides, aren’t the master’s colleagues there?]

Colleagues.

He must be talking about many ties, including the saintess.

“Come to think of it, you came without even saying hello to the golden lion.”

Genos said that the golden lion couldn’t cross the wall and wanted to meet me.

I couldn’t even meet him because of Rebecca.

‘Rebecca…’

Princess Rebecca of the duchy.

Even her corruption was not in my plan.

it’s a fall

Rebecca, who was corrupted by Beria’s arrangement.

I reached into the subspace and pulled out the necklace she was sealed in.

[After 6 days and 3 hours and 13 minutes!]

I immediately wanted to put it back in, but I held back.

“Rebecca.”

[yes! I’m Master Carlier’s faithful sex slave! This is Rebecca!]

I must have lost my mind. I see you talking nonsense.

‘No, I guess I went out of my mind.’

Isn’t it important

“When you fall. you’ve seen god I want to know what happened back then.”

The reason I brought out Rebecca was because I had something to check.

Originally, it is self-evident that entanglement with God should be avoided.

The gods here are not benevolent.

All they want is strong arms.

Those gods responded to my power.

He even went down to the oracle and told him to kill me.

So I had to prepare myself not to die, and it is right that I should know them at least a little bit. It is necessary to check whether the knowledge I have is useful against what I know.

[Oh, it was a secret tryst between God and I, so you want to know about it. The owner liked it too! Do you want to hear about God’s secret indulgence time with me?]

Shall we break it?

“I know how to break a Niall necklace.”

[Sorry, I don’t know. How about just throwing it into the river? If you sink to the bottom, you’ll be stuck there for hundreds of years.]

“That’s a good method.”

[I will tell you!]

“What conversation did you have with God?”

Rebecca groaned and gasped, then answered.

[After being pierced through my heart by my mother, my body stretched and twisted as if I was being sucked into something. And when I woke up, I was in front of a huge mace.]

Mother. and withdrew.

There were many things that bothered me, but I listened in silence. It’s annoying if you talk nonsense for nothing.

[I didn’t even think it was a mace at first because of how big it was. I thought it was just a giant wall. But after a while, it turned out to be a withdrawal. It was a strange feeling. And it was humiliating.]

“Humiliating?”

[Because I knew that if that huge mace ever fell on my head, the girl would perish. I couldn’t bear to move my feet and couldn’t even raise my head.]

Then.

[Then… I heard a sigh.]

“Sigh?”

Do you think God sighed?

[Then it fell right away. Crashed and crashed. Clothes were burned, skin was torn, bones were exposed, and all were shaved and crushed. And at the same time I felt that I had fallen to the floor.]

I was reborn as a result of the fall.

That was it.

“I couldn’t say a word.”

[Wouldn’t it be great just to face God?]

I immediately hooked Rebecca on a hook and threw it into the river.

[Hey, promises are different!!]

“I never promised anything.”

I was relieved to see Rebecca disappearing into the water.

[Did you get the answer you were looking for?]

“Nothing different from what I expected.”

However, it gave me a little reassurance. I have always been like that.

If it was the same, I was relieved, if it was different, I was anxious.

“I didn’t think Rebecca knew anything in the first place. She just got lucky and got corrupted.”

It is impossible to get God’s information from such Rebecca.

I didn’t even expect it in the first place.

“The seven days we promised are already coming to an end.”

[It’s time for Demetri’s meditation to end.]

“Or maybe he’s already making a holy object.”

[Are you going to leave it alone?]

Niall’s voice was quite muddy.

It was pretty negative about Demetri.

“You seem to hate it quite a bit.”

[He’s talking about making the holy relic for you, but doesn’t your lord know that’s not the case?]

“That’s right.”

Demetri said.

for your own wishes.

For the sake of a lasting achievement by creating a holy relic that no one has ever made.

He declared that he would make a sword sheath that he would write, which would surely mark a mark in history.

However, that is only a superficial reason.

Demetri’s intentions were a little different.

‘god.’

The guy makes a sword sheath.

I put a little bit of my strength into it.

That’s how he wants to become a god by making the first sword case.

[The intention is to preoccupy and take away achievements that could become the lord. If he really does not know if he will become a god.]

“Those who made the first arms became gods. Do you know why?”

[I don’t know.]

It’s natural not to know.

No one knows what became of those who made the first arms.

I can only guess that he became a god.

“Weapons are not necessarily made by warriors. Can a mere farmer become a god by making a hoe?”

[That… is not armed.]

“Then is it actually armed?”

[…]

I summoned Garcia while watching Niall who couldn’t answer.

A general with a shield in one hand and a spear in the other.

Garcia.

And Niol, a high-ranking soldier holding a sword.

These are gray knights with skills that even a Master can deal with.

So you won’t have to worry about it.

“The gray renegade.”

Before I knew it, dozens of paladins were located around Naruto.

Those who escorted Demetri were also mixed, but there were scythes, maces, and even spears that they had encountered nearby.

“Demetri allowed you to, but we don’t.”

“God will be angry that you borrowed the power of a renegade to create a holy relic.”

“You are the one who will become a huge stain on the future of the great Mumen. As the oracle said, we will punish you.”

Mumen, the country of hooks.

Unlike Demetrius, the former pope.

The current pope seemed to have a different idea.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t say things like that even in front of the cave where Demetri is.

However, despite his solemn attitude, Callius had turned his back all this time.

Without even looking at the Paladins who surrounded Naruto, Callius replied.

“That’s why you brought those thugs.”

“You’re going to fall!”

“The ugly guy who bought God’s wrath talks a lot!!”

“Brothers! Talking more doesn’t do you any good. In the name of God, bring down the punishment!”

A good forty number of paladins.

But Colliers didn’t budge.

Soon, Niol and Garcia stood by him and grabbed their swords and spears.

‘It’s more enemy than I thought.’

Been here for a week.

It wouldn’t be strange if hundreds of knights came by that time.

I’m only forty, so it’s a little strange.

Besides, the level is bad.

At least, the paladins of the general level.

[Master.]

[Call down.]

“It’s noisy… you can leave it alone.”

Colleas, who was about to tell him to get rid of the noise, soon changed his words.

It seemed like I could just leave it alone.

“joy! He must have been scared!”

“I am the male lion of Goldex!”

It was the moment when the paladin with the mace stepped forward.

dering.

“hmm?”

Suddenly, a harp sounded from somewhere.

“Isn’t this the sound of a harp?”

“Why does the harp sound in this mountain?”

“Oh over there!”

“Something is coming.”

When I opened my eyes, I saw a small boat approaching from the river.

Above it, a woman playing a huge harp smiled mysteriously.

Even pretending, he was not an ordinary person.

[Master. I think you should avoid it.]

“It’s corruption.”

Unlike the paladins that appeared.

This time, even the superiors were extremely vigilant.

appearance of the fall.

Besides, she is playing the harp.

It was no different from saying that the woman who was a follower of Sil had fallen.

Plus a harp.

It wasn’t a very good atmosphere.

“It’s the shady demonic energy!”

“For that witch to appear… She must be an ally of a defector!”

“Brothers! Catch renegades and witches and offer them to God!”

“Even if I die today, the names of the warriors will be widely known in history in the future!”

“Oohhhh!”

However, that was then.

belt ring.

The tune has changed.

The sound of the harp, which flowed leisurely like a calm river, soon turns into a sound resounding in the middle of a passionate battlefield.

Just hearing it made my heart throb and it felt like my blood was pumping backwards.

[Master…!!]

[Your body will move…]

The generals noticed it faster than those idiots.

“Huh! My body doesn’t move!”

“Hee strength!”

Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

All the paladins couldn’t lift a finger at the touch of corruption that played as if they were swimming on a harp.

Catch up.

At least, the Sang Sang soldiers tried to move while risking their bodies being squeezed, but even that was not enough.

The more I listened to the performance, the more my body stiffened.

“Like this cowardly witch!!”

tying.

The music suddenly stopped.

[It’s noisy.]

Soon, he plucked one of the strings of the harp.

Daeaeng. With a sound, the strings of the harp jumped out and pierced the paladin’s head.

“Ouch!”

“Kuk!”

“Gagging!”

like a window. Or, it moved like a snake and pierced the heads of all nearby paladins.

All in one instant, as many as forty paladins.

In fact, it was only after piercing through all of their heads as if they were alive that they returned to the strings of the harp and settled down.

ding.

with the dull sound of a harp.

All of the paladins located on the docks were destroyed.

thud.

Sigh.

The ship stopped at the ferry and Tarak, playing the harp, climbed onto the ferry.

[nice to meet you. The gray renegade.]

“I’m not very happy. What is your business?”

[We need your protection… I want you to go with me. I can’t help it because it’s an order.]

“It sounds like you’re going to take me by force if I don’t go with you.”

[There is no need to use force. When I listen to my performance, I cannot move for a while. Unless I allow it. Even your knights can’t move, can’t

they ? Niol and Garcia’s bodies trembled. I hear the sound of something exploding inside.

Efforts to move while forcibly hurting the body could be seen.

[What are you going to do? If you go without saying anything, I will release you. Or should I pick him up and take him away like this?]

Corruption, approaching with a bewitching gait, stretched his hand from the seated Colius’ shoulder to his chin.

“Are all the people of corruption like this?”

[It’s not like that… but we’re in a bit of a hurry too. Even if it’s not me, others will come to you. He has become an indispensable existence for us.]

An indispensable existence.

“It’s fun.”

[Your story is quite famous on our side. The strong one who subdued the sad and dying corruption. However, an abandoned knight who even bought the wrath of the gods.]

Callius’ brow furrowed at the voice of corruption that clung to him like sticky mucus.

“Who are you?”

[I am a tightening corruption. Her name is Gelalin. Please call me Zella.]

Tightening corruption.

Callius, who nodded as if he had said the same, got up from his seat and grabbed Gelarine by the neck at once and twisted it.

kudeudeuk.

[Ouch! Uh, how can I use my body…]

“I’m the one who is loved by the bards, so that doesn’t work.”

Unique and one-of-a-kind talent.

Because 『Bard’s Blessing』 is still valid.

Attacks using musical instruments did not work on Colius.

Roaring.

A sword made by killing a fire dragon that was taken out before I knew it.

Doyeomgeom (悼染劍) – Erbiwe.

It spewed blue flames.

In an instant, a blue fire wall around the dock soared up.

“Even if I kill you, the corruption will come anyway. Isn’t it?”

[That’s right. So there’s no point in killing me, so let’s do this…]

“It doesn’t matter because more will come anyway.”

Why does Corruption want me?

“You can ask the next guy.”
