Episode 232 – The One Who Eats the World

Why did this world perish?

okay.

Obviously, it must have started with small changes.

Knowledge of the magical weapon that someone brought.

It brought peace to civilization, but at the same time it was the beginning of its destruction.

Countless towers.

A torrent of magical weapons.

People became increasingly lazy and stopped progressing.

No, it wasn’t.

They say that the most peaceful times are the most dangerous times.

The author who brought that up must have experienced a painful history.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to accurately predict what would happen in his world.

The invasion was sudden, and in an instant, all the magical weapons turned against the enemy.

The country was destroyed in an instant.

It wasn’t long before the Guardian was brutally murdered.

And so, the world was destroyed.

‘But I survived.’

Kookookookookook-.

Looking at the crumbling facility, someone clenched their fist.

A boy with blue hair and a single horn.

Blue mana blooming in a hazy manner.

As he shot something high into the sky, the weather changed.

Kwakwang! Kwakwakwang-!

It was as if a war had broken out, with continuous thunderous noises.

Dust was flying around and it became impossible to see even an inch ahead.

[Move and descend. I, the Guardian of the Air, command you to open their sight.]

The last remaining guardian of the unicorn.

As he gave the command, clouds began to gather.

A humble guardian who rules over the weather.

All he could do was follow them around and provide them with a little help.

Swaaaaaaahh …

Before I knew it, it started to rain.

Some people might hate it, but at least no one would suffer because of the dust.

He desperately wanted it.

I hope that the hammer of punishment will be brought down on those who devour the world.

‘If they succeed, I will leave this world without any regrets. And… …I will give everything to them.’

He would give his soul if only he could wipe out the world-eaters.

That was also the reason why I called in reinforcements from another world.

His goal is only one.

The goal was to drive out those hateful people and create a new home for himself.

“Whew… … I miss you all.”

You never know.

A miracle might really happen.

He walked quietly, careful not to be noticed.

Because I had to keep following them and helping them.

It was a dark space.

The king of the dead with blue eyes looked at the departing traveler and asked.

“Is it really okay if I don’t go? How about going with Orion?”

“It’s okay. I’ll be back soon. Anyway… … I have to do this.”

“Yeah, I have that too. What are you worried about?”

“Um… … I’m more worried now that my senior is gone.”

The one whom the King of the Dead calls [Senior].

A woman with golden hair and golden dragon eyes smiled incredulously.

Nia: Albedo.

A woman who abandoned her family name and became the guardian of a world.

The Dragon’s Successor.

He was once a great magician who attended the same academy as Manus and solved cases.

“This is really true, there’s nothing I can’t say. How many years have we spent together!”

“It was only half a year. It’s been quite some time since then.”

“I’m a guardian after all, right?”

“Okay, I understand. Please take good care of Styx.”

“There’s a dragon there too? I wonder.”

Nia looked out at the desolate land beyond the gate, her curiosity welling up.

His confident and proud appearance resembled that of an arrogant dragon.

But her eyes were calmer and deeper than anyone else’s.

“It’s been a while since I’ve faced a new enemy.”

“If you’re a senior, you can do it.”

“Okay, then. Then, I’ll be off.”

Sticks and Nia disappeared beyond the gate.

Manus stared blankly at the place where they had disappeared, then suddenly felt like he wanted to see someone.

If you go now, you’ll be able to see the face to your heart’s content.

But there was too much work left to do.

Now that Nia is gone, there will surely be someone targeting the world she protected.

As the king of the underworld, Tartarus, he had to keep his inner self firmly in check.

What those who wish to invade a peaceful world fear most is his power.

‘It’s a game… … It’s fortunate that Nia-senpai doesn’t have any strange thoughts.’

The world he originally governed went through a great war.

There was no reason for them to participate in the game at the expense of others, so they would maintain the peace.

Neither the warrior, the saint, nor even the warlock wanted to participate in the game.

‘That summoner. He seems to be of a similar type to me. I’m sure Nia-senpai will help him out.’

The problems that Styx had to solve just happened to overlap.

What a strange fate.

Who would have thought that a disciple would be torn apart like that?

Styx then prepared to rescue another disciple.

Indeed, I’m not sure what the outcome will be.

If successful, he was willing to accept the wizard’s apprentice as an apostle.

Manus got up from his seat and thought about the things that needed to be tied up.

Before he knew it, his new aide, the Madou Seonghwang Boreas, was sitting next to him, bowing his head and relaying information.

“It seems like the demons are finally making their move.”

“I see. I guess I can keep that promise.”

One day Manus said this.

I want to have a go at Masin.

Now seemed like the time to go and keep that promise.

‘I believe you will do well, Styx.’

Like it or not, he’s now involved in the game.

The King of Death has made his move in earnest.

Kookookookookook-.

A second facility collapsed.

Unlike the first time, Hwanung looked at the summoned beasts who were breathing heavily.

It was time to take a break, but the enemy’s attacks were more serious than expected.

“This is a big problem.”

“I think we’ll have to take turns recovering our stamina. And we’ll be in dire need of some potions from Lord Odern.”

“That’s what we should do. Lucy, find a space behind you that’s blocked. We need to move there.”

“All right.”

Hwanung’s strategy was as follows.

Create a kill zone by providing ample space for rest and luring Rubinos’ forces into the narrowest possible space.

You can fight many enemies with a small number of summons, so you should have enough time to buy them.

[Shinpung]

Kwarrrrrrrr-!

A huge splash occurred.

As Narae swung her power, blade-like winds engulfed everything, forming a wall of wind.

No matter how huge the weapon is, it will be torn to pieces by this blade.

“Please move during this gap, my lord.”

“Narae, are you still okay?”

“No nod. Now I can never be defeated.”

Agility 100.

A monster that has reached the limit of its current stats declared so.

Her words had the power to make it seem like they would definitely be kept.

It’s still a long way from reaching that far away place, but at least that’s how it was so far.

“So, trust me and move.”

“Okay. It’s solid. Let’s get moving quickly.”

So, Hwanung took advantage of the gap in the wind barrier blocking his path and retreated temporarily to find a place to rest.

Finding such a place was easier than I thought.

Because of the heavy rain, visibility was poor, but there was a suitable spot not far away.

“That would be nice.”

“I think we could build a barricade there.”

“I see. If you add a magic that kills movement, it will be an excellent resting place.”

Although it is only a one-time use, it will serve as a sturdy resting place for tired summons.

He felt fortunate that the other summons were different from him.

You can eat the food by yourself.

Kurrururur-.

The wizards moved, and soon a cozy shelter was created.

“Ugh-. Now I can live a little!”

“It’s really endless. Are there over a hundred of these facilities?”

“I have to travel all over the world, how much more is there… … .”

Hwanung looked at his summoned beasts resting here and there and thought.

If I do this well, I might have to give up the challenge.

In a place like this, not having a summoner for 24 hours was a huge risk.

I was keenly feeling that it was important to manage the summoner’s stamina and that quantity was also necessary.

‘One mistake is enough. It’s better to minimize losses.’

After much thought, I concluded that we needed to replenish our forces.

Something I wanted to experiment with.

It was time to begin the experiment of creating stars again by adding power to the stars.

‘Synthesize R-grade until it evolves into Epsilon.’

When I closed my eyes and looked inside myself, I saw countless souls.

By gathering the power of the soul little by little, a huge star was created.

A sparkling, brilliant force created by small people coming together.

It began to twinkle alongside the star that Epsilon had.

‘It’s a success.’

My guess was correct, and I figured out how to evolve [The One with the Star].

Maybe it’s possible because they’ve already raised them.

In many ways, those seen in the Pest Saga seemed like good value for money.

The system sent several notifications.

[R-rated: Three Star Epsilon receives new star powers.]

[SR Grade: Four Stars – Epsilon has been summoned.]

[A summoned creature with stars.]

[The conditions for creating a star are as follows.]

[1. You must complete a special mission.]

[2. You must create a star by selecting from 5 SSR grade summons / 50 SR grade summons / 500 R grade summons.]

“Who said it was cost effective?”

Hwanung made a bewildered expression.

Because it has evolution conditions that are much more difficult than those of normal summons.

But, I quickly realized why there was such a condition.

[SR Grade: Four Star Epsilon]

[Strength: 65 Mana: 70 Stamina: 73 Agility: 61]

[Skill… … .]

Because their abilities are far superior to those of named summons.

That means that even if you reach SSR rank, you will have abilities that are far superior to those of the same rank.

As if Narae were like that.

‘There’s a long way to go.’

How many more summons do I have to summon?

I thought I had no choice but to keep running it like a factory.

As we were taking a short break like that, the gate suddenly opened.

Dismissal-.

The summoned creatures suddenly jumped up and took up a battle stance at the suddenly opened gate.

But the person who came out of there had a pretty familiar face.

“Master?”

“It’s passing by.”

“Oh, it’s a dragon.”

[Eek!?]

Gina was surprised, and Sticks recognized her face and greeted her.

Nia, who had golden hair, spoke as she looked at Nergo, and the little dragon was startled and hid behind Hwanung.

Styx and Nia appeared.
