Subscriber of the Gods Episode 431
Episode 431. Skypia, the City in the Sky
“What do you mean…?”
The Join warriors continued to watch Detrinir.
Detrinir simply looked down at the Join warrior with a stern expression.
“I have a disease. I heard that there is someone in this sky city who can cure it.”
“Are you talking about our Skypiea?”
“Ugh.”
The Join warriors looked at Ethan upon hearing that he was sick.
Behind his handsome appearance, he seemed to be weak. However, I couldn’t just open the door.
“That’s true…….”
Hwaruk-.
At that moment, Detrinir snorted.
A pitch-black flame surged right over their heads.
“Hic!”
The surprised Join warrior shook his head urgently. However, Detrinir’s control was perfect.
But it was such a fearful act for them that the Zun warriors tried to let Ethan in.
“I’m sorry, but a serious situation has occurred within Sky City right now, and we cannot accept outsiders.”
But then someone inside shouted loudly.
Among the frightened Zan warriors, one Zan warrior wearing an ornate helmet and holding a long spear came out and stopped Ethan.
“I am the captain of the guard in charge of security here. As I just mentioned, there is currently an incident of profanity occurring within Skypiea, and entry by outsiders is prohibited. I understand that you have had to travel a long way, but I apologize. It is His Majesty’s order.”
‘It looks like something happened inside. Yes, it’s even stranger that the 1st and 2nd apostles and even the saint were inside and not caught.’
Ethan got off Detrinir’s back first, thinking the story would be long.
As soon as I descended gently above the clouds, a notification window popped up.
-You have arrived at Skypia, the city in the sky!
-Achievement achieved!
– [Even without wings] You get likes for completing achievements!
– You’ve gotten ‘5’ likes!
‘It was difficult to get there, so the achievement was achieved right away.’
The captain of the Join tribe guards wiggled his eyebrows at the sight of Ethan gently descending from the clouds.
“You’ve been here before.”
The floor of Skypiea is clouds.
The cloud floor was the most difficult thing for other races who came to Skypiea.
To the Zun people, clouds feel both solid and soft at the same time. On the other hand, to other races, clouds are just clouds.
It feels like if you press on it, your foot will sink in.
That is why other races cannot easily set foot on the floor of Skypiea.
But Ethan stepped very lightly on the cloud floor. In short, it meant that this was not his first time visiting Skypiea.
“It’s not the first time.”
Of course, it was a first for Ethan Wickers.
“What happened inside that caused it to be closed?”
The captain hesitated for a moment at Ethan’s question, then opened his mouth.
“Since you have been to Skypiea before, I think you will know the history of our Skypiea.”
“Yes, I know.”
“The land of the gods that we hold sacred has now been invaded by outsiders. His Majesty is furious and has banned all outsiders from entering.”
There is a legend passed down among the Join tribe.
The gods came down to the Join tribe, who were ordinary humans living on Sky Island, and gave them wings and this land in the sky.
The place where the gods descended was named the City of the Gods, and the huge city formed around the City of the Gods was the Skypia, the city in the sky.
“But isn’t there a real city of gods there? I understand that the empty land is closed off due to tradition.”
“Yes, it is certainly an empty land. However, that does not mean that outsiders can enter it without permission. Whatever is inside, we call it the City of the Gods and hold it sacred.”
The City of the Gods is a legend passed down in Skypiea, so it has no real existence.
‘They said it was definitely there, but you couldn’t see it with your eyes.’
It was a story I heard when I visited Skypiea in Mephant. Ethan also went in to check for himself, but there was nothing there.
‘Besides, the city of the gods itself is so large.’
It was so big that it was a shame to just leave it as an empty lot, but there was no reason to get involved in the affairs of the Sky City, so I just left.
“There are intruders in that land.”
An outsider has invaded the sacred land.
“Yes, that’s why Skypiea is in disarray. The outsiders who were there before are currently restricted from going outside.”
This meant that it was impossible to enjoy the natural sights of the Sky City that could not be seen from the ground, such as medicinal herbs and sky veins that only grew there.
‘Is this a situation where I can neither enter nor exit?’
Detrinir looked at Ethan. His expression seemed to suggest that if it came down to it, he should just force his way in.
‘That’s a handshake.’
What matters now is not strength.
‘Go to fame.’
“Captain, my name is Ethan Wickers.”
“……yes?”
The captain of the guard blinked at Ethan’s self-introduction.
Then his eyes opened wide and his mouth fell open.
“Oh, oh! Are you really that Ethan Wickers?”
“Yes, my name is Ethan Wickers, a teacher at Ibeka Academy.”
Ethan’s fame spread even to the Sky City.
‘I thought you only knew my name. But judging from your reaction, it seems like you definitely know who I am?’

“My younger sibling is attending the academy! He also participated in this exchange program. My younger sibling’s name is HP, and he is from the Vogue Academy…….”
‘Oh my.’
Along with fame, one more power was gained.
‘Connections.’
Ethan recalled his memories from the time of the exchange.
‘I know, I know. I just don’t know the exact details.’
I remember it looking peculiar. I thought that its peculiar appearance was probably due to its being of the Zun tribe.
‘The venom was considerable.’
“Ah! You’re a family member of an HP student. Nice to meet you. I first saw the students of Vogue Academy during the exchange program, and they were all excellent. It was definitely Vogue Academy, where students must take a difficult exam to get in.”
The captain of the guard smiled with pleasure at Ethan’s praise.
“Vogue Academy achieved excellent results despite being the first exchange program. Without the HP students’ efforts, it would have been difficult to achieve such results. They were excellent along with the representative students. They must have worked harder because of their older brother’s support.”
The captain of the guard’s eyes welled up with tears at Ethan’s words.
“My brother and I are of mixed race, but unlike me, he doesn’t have wings, so he had a hard time here. That’s why I sent him to the Borg Academy… Ugh, I thought he was having a hard time adjusting because he showed a lot of signs of difficulty, but he’s doing well.”
After Ethan was silent for a moment, the captain of the guard opened the door.
“I can open it at my discretion. It may break later.”
Detrinir wagged his tail slightly at the sight. It seemed that he was impressed by Ethan’s skills.
“No, you don’t have to. Could you please tell me something?”
Ethan’s goal wasn’t simply to open the door and go in.
“Who should I speak to?”
“Please tell His Majesty.”
Tykan, the king of the Joiners who rule Skypiea.
“I think I can help with this.”
* * *
“Call me again.”
After sending Detrinir away, Ethan was invited by Tykan, the king of the Joiners, to officially enter Skypiea.
Skypia was a city that became more and more beautiful the more I looked at it.
The place closest to the sky.
No, it was the sky itself.
The unique style of the Zouin people’s buildings, visible through the pure white clouds floating around, were quite beautiful.
‘The pointed roof stands out. Plus, there are clouds here and there in the middle of the building.’
It looked as if the building had been built among the clouds.
The most beautiful of them all was, of course, the royal palace where the king lived.
The huge clouds dyed in the sunset colors were quite impressive.
“You can just come here.”
Ethan entered the palace, guided by the captain of the guard.
Several Join warriors turned their gazes toward Ethan as he passed through the interior and arrived at the reception room.
In a situation where they were already having a headache because of outsiders, it was inevitable that they would look at each other negatively when another outsider appeared.
“His Majesty is waiting.”
As the huge door opened, a loud noise was heard.
Inside, several members of the group were arguing.
“We need to deploy the military right now to catch and kill those guys!”
“How can we allow armed men into the sacred ground? Our priority is to find them with the minimum number of people!”
“Things are different now! How important it is to find those who defile the sacred ground!”
“That doesn’t mean we can be of the same class!”
“So, are you saying that we should just send the bare minimum number of people to find those guys who we don’t even know where they are?”
“exactly.”
“Then they will come back after they have polluted our land!”
“Everyone shut up!”
Among his arguing subjects, King Taikan of the Zou tribe was shaking his head.
Then Tykan saw Ethan.
“The noble of the land has arrived. Sir Ethan Wickers! Welcome!”
Tykan looked at Ethan as if he saw a ray of hope.
“Welcome to Skypiea!”
Ethan nodded.
“hello.”
The atmosphere was quite chaotic, but when Ethan, an outsider, entered, the divided and fighting Join tribe all glared at Ethan.
There were truly a variety of different types of people.
From the bird tribe that looks exactly like a human but has wings, to the bird tribe that looks like an owl, to the tiny bird tribe that looks like a sparrow, and to the giant bird tribe.
Among them, Tykan, the king of the Join tribe, seemed to be the largest.
‘It’s probably a bird like a pelican.’
“I know you may not like my visit in this chaotic situation. I came to help Skypiea. Please relax your expressions.”
Ethan, who had said so, crossed the group of Joiners and headed towards Tykan.
“Thank you for the welcome, Your Majesty.”
“Sir Ethan Wickers, I heard that there was someone looking for you. And that you could be of great help in capturing the humans who have invaded our sacred lands.”
Taycan looked at Ethan as if he found it interesting.
The Zun tribe vassals who had been hostile to Ethan kept their mouths shut at Ethan’s single word.
It was because of the aura emanating from Ethan.
This aura was directed only at his subjects, so King Taikan did not feel it at all.
In short, it was a matter of striking the perfect balance between courtesy and rudeness.
“Yes, I think I can help you. But I haven’t heard the full story yet. If you tell me more about it, I can give you more specific information.”
“Then let me tell you the story from the beginning. It’ll take quite a bit of time to rewind.”
Taycan began to explain.
