Sword Pilgrim

Episode 242

[What are you looking at so interestingly?]

A low, deep voice.

A red thing with multiple voices echoes in the pond in the cave where water drops fall.

[…was looking at the little god.]

The pure white thing said.

The person staring endlessly at the rippled pond couldn’t take their eyes off what was so strange and interesting.

[Do you call something like a bug a god?]

[God is a god. Even if it’s like a flying insect now. Because we also went through that beginning.]

The one in white looking at the pond and the one in red looked at the pond together.

[So what’s fun?]

A devastated forest.

In the midst of the ashes, the little god was holding his daughter in his arms and crying.

[It needs to take my daughter for it to grow. I wonder what choice he will make.]

The power contained in his daughter is the power he possessed in the future. If you take it, you will have more power than you do now.

The power that is one step closer to God.

[I was wondering what was so funny about being gloomy, so you messed up.]

[I just did what I had to do. The choice is up to the authors.]

[If you take the one who received four punishments, he will have to endure the divine punishment as well.]

In that case, he will not be able to enter the perfect god.

God’s divine punishment will grab your ankle.

When I said that, the white man replied with a different face than when he saw the small thing.

[It wasn’t me who was concerned about the little god, but rather you guys.]

[Huh. There is no god who is worried about such a small god. Our goal is to make weapons that can reach the sky. Whether it’s a spear or a sword, we have to do it.]

But that’s it.

[It can’t be a scabbard.]

White smiles as Red disapproves.

It doesn’t seem funny.

[For things like that, you were the one who broke the unwritten rule and sent down the apostles.]

Getting involved on the ground is only about weapons.

This was an emotional result.

[I just warned the arrogant. It wouldn’t be the time for you to be so engrossed. Stay still and your sword will go into him. Then he’ll grow stronger again. Are you going to leave it alone?]

[God just watches the choice. It is entirely up to me which choice to make my own share.] [

It means that our work may be disrupted just by watching.]

White replied as if it were ridiculous.

[Don’t talk nonsense. window. Is that why you separated the twins like that?]

[That’s… it’s just a miscommunication.]

Looking at a man reflected in the pond.

White smiled.

[Since deceased people are bound to rot. I don’t think it’s that bad.]

[Are you saying I’m rotten?]

[I didn’t say that. If you feel that way, it’s okay to be a little self-respecting. Humility is a virtue in any era.]

The red eyes narrowed.

[…I feel stuffy in this world. I’m tired of playing with toys like you.]

Red looked at the ceiling.

The ceiling of the dark cave was dark and damp, and my head was close enough to touch it.

[We are still in the egg.]

The bird has to break out of the egg and come out.

An egg is a world, but it is also a wall.

You cannot see the world without waking up.

[The egg shell also serves to protect us. No one knows what’s up there in the sky.]

[It’s worthless to wait for something to appear in the kennel created by the Creator. What did we get after waiting for all these years? Is it a fall waiting to rise again after being dropped? Or are they dragons that seem to be examples of arrogance? If it’s not that, are they just livestock raised to be loved by God!]

To call my followers cattle?

White was dumbfounded.

[It’s a bit disgusting to call my followers livestock. They and we are no different. What do you want to see by breaking the world? Is it a stronger force? Or is it a new world?]

[Both. i no longer don’t expect them I don’t think that challengers or whatever can destroy the world just by making weapons out of them. It makes no sense.]

[Then what are you going to do?]

[I will break the rules of the Creator.]

[…You mean to break his rules?]

Red was silent for a while.

Unspoken was also positive.

[Did the other gods agree?]

[Now, only you are left.]

They too have already reached their limits.

They were tired of meaningless repetition. Unlike the consistently relaxed white color.

[Then you don’t need my opinion.]

Look at that.

Isn’t it like looking at the pond as if you are not interested even if you hear that you are going to break the rules? The red one commented on the man in the pond with a spirited face.

[Hey, no matter what, he is a greedy person. In order to increase one’s strength, it is a human being to kill and take possession of even blood relatives. Being a half-god is no different. I will rather take my daughter and hold my own ankle.]

As if there was no previous story, the curious White made his mouth round and just watched.

[Whatever it is, I just watch.]

Red stood up and said that he didn’t like the color white.

[Tsk. Then I’ll do it my way And the purple color will do as well as I want. Now that I know his weakness is my daughter, the job will be easier.]

Red disappeared and White looked at the pond again.

To watch his choices.

* * *

Huung Huung Huung Fugh!

While spinning in the air, a sword stuck to the floor was stabbed pathetically.

The father, who was holding his motionless daughter in his arms, was unmoving.

The saintess barely managed to hold the holy sword with her immovable body.

This is the holy sword Balterus.

The saintess gripped the sword and groaned softly as she felt the powerful power within.

But I couldn’t be more happy.

The mission was successful, but he was very sad.

“Emily would have waited for me all along to die at my hands.”

The holy sword was only a secondary reason.

He was just a child who wanted to meet his father once again by postponing his death.

“Esther. Can you give me the Holy Sword?”

At Colius’ words, Esther looked down at the holy sword for a moment.

yet.

“Yes, of course.”

Esther passed the holy sword to Colius as if it were natural.

Because the one who would receive this holy sword was not himself, but him. All she had to do after entering the dangerous forest was to fight against Fatalite and fall down.

Frankly, she was ashamed of herself.

“If I hold the holy sword, the holy sword will no longer be a holy sword.”

“I am a saint, but I am from Carpe. So far, even without the holy sword, we’ve gotten through it well. And now I understand why Stella didn’t give the holy sword to the church.”

“Why?”

“Since the symbolism and strength of the holy sword is clear, it is said that they fought for ownership of it for quite a long time. Stella must have hidden the holy sword to calm the turmoil.”

So there is no need for a holy sword.

The reason she tried to find the holy sword was to save Carpe from a crisis.

However, it is useless now.

There is a man with mighty power in front of the saintess who must think of the country and the church.

And there is only the pathetic father who lost his daughter.

“thanks.”

Callius received the Holy Sword from the saintess and dyed it his own color.

It was a very fast pace compared to when Lumpad’s Holy Grail was dyed.

It wasn’t too difficult either.

It was easily dyed gray, as if God wanted it.

And I struggled.

Emily’s body went cold.

But her spirit lives on.

It was because he did not believe in any god and stepped into the realm of the demigod himself.

Callius is a scabbard.

It is possible to hold her.

That’s right.

but.

“Eh, Emily’s body…!”

It is becoming transparent.

The time axis of the endangered forest is changing.

Emily is disappearing.

That was the effect of the wind that had blown away parts of the forest from Colleas.

‘Even if I take Emily out, she’ll disappear soon.’

Because the current Emily lives in the future timeline. Even if he leaves the forest, he cannot exist.

As it is, the only way for her as a scabbard is to embrace it.

But…

‘I can’t do that.’

Emily was refusing.

Even though her body has reached death, she is a half-body.

After death, she prevented her power and soul from entering the scabbard of Colius.

‘Is it because of the divine punishment?’

It is because of the divine punishment that strangles her heart.

Callius knows the power of divine punishment better than anyone else.

Because he was the one who created the divine punishment itself and gave it the settings.

I have no choice but to know. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

This is the trap of the gods.

The moment she embraces Emily, the divine punishment for Emily will fall on Colius.

But otherwise, Emily disappears. You will be lonely and alone.

‘Is this for Balterus?’

Callius looked up at the sky with bloodshot eyes.

For some reason, he said that the holy sword came in easily.

What he wanted to see was not the holy sword, but this situation.

Will you embrace your daughter and receive divine punishment?

Or will you ruthlessly abandon your daughter?

which one to choose

Callius gritted his teeth and stood up. I won’t choose any of the choices you made.

so.

“you!”

Divine light shines around Colius.

A gray color resembling him engulfs the surroundings and a huge pillar of light soars up into the sky.

hooked

After sticking the holy sword into the ground, he hugged Emily tightly and murmured.

“Please resent and resent this father who cannot embrace you. I will live with that sin for the rest of my life.”

slither.

Emily’s increasingly transparent body flickers in a gray light.

and soon.

A gray sword resembling her appeared.

The sword’s name is Emily.

Callius gripped his sword tightly.

Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

A precarious forest that is collapsing.

In the middle of that place, Emily’s sword body, which became a sword, becomes transparent.

And soon after.

Seruk.

has disappeared.

“Why did you disappear?”

“Because the forest has lost its power.”

“Then Emily!”

“It must have gone back to the original time.”

Esther’s eyes widened at his words.

It was unbearable to see the unconcerned face of Colius.

“Then you can’t find it again!”

“No, it is not.”

Callius pulled out a broken sword from subspace.

Its name is the Broken Sword of the Forgotten God.

A strange reward received after completing a quest in the North.

Missing Emily.

Called Callers.

“Emily.”

The broken sword starts to glow.

At the same time, white light starts to flash in the sky.

[Huh.]

An unfamiliar laugh resounds.

The voice that laughed as if it was absurd soon disappeared as if it had been washed away.

After the voice disappeared, the shape of the broken sword changed.

It’s the gray sword you saw earlier.

It was Emily who had disappeared.

“…”

Callius looked at the gray sword.

A clean sword without any blemishes.

“It’s fine now. I will be by your side.”

Callius cut off the rosary that had been worn around his neck for years.

Rosario, absorbing his divine power, turned into a sheath.

“Emily.”

Callius put Emily, who had turned into a sword, into her scabbard.

and immediately.

The ground began to vibrate all at once.

“What…”

Esther was startled and hurriedly stood up.

I had never heard of an earthquake happening here. It wasn’t even that Calius was exerting himself.

“A beam of light…”

Fatalite’s words echoed.

When Esther looked up, there appeared a scene she had seen once before.

An oracle to kill the gray renegade.

Just like then, beams of light were penetrating the world.

But if there is something different from then.

“How could it be…”

It was that there were thousands and tens of thousands of pillars of light falling from the sky.

It was a spear, a sword, and various types of weapons.

I became a fallen black person.

The fallen spear became a person.

All of the fallen arms became people.

“Wow, the game is fucking realistic.”

They called themselves players.
