Only Noblemtl
#260. Face to Face
#Episode 260.
Whoosh whoosh—
The aftershock of the explosion pushed the vast beach.
The city was thrown into chaos by the brutal clashes.
In the meantime, I watched two figures following the sky from the horizon.
— Do you know the belly…hole?
A familiar-looking person floating in the air above the sea surface starts acting strangely on his own and then falls over with a bang. There was a hole in his stomach and blood was pouring out. The person who suddenly lost consciousness was caught by a woman next to him.
That’s an injury that looks like something I’ve seen very recently.
anyway.
A plant complex southwest of Undine Cobb.
A man who watched the rare sight of a lightning-breathing airship crashing into a barrier at full speed from beginning to end.
“Brother, you don’t have a sword in your hand, so what are you putting in the scabbard? Are you practicing some kind of mime these days?”
Vance opened his mouth as if he was wondering.
“I would have died at that point, right? If only people had a conscience.”
In addition, he asks, “He didn’t die, did he?” or “He must have died, right?”
It was a question that was somewhat filled with anticipation.
“······.”
Soon, Ahimsa’s cold gaze scanned Vance’s behavior.
“Oh, no. Actually, I want my brother to live happily.”
Feeling the cold gaze, Vance changed his words. The summer shirt with the gorgeous flower embroidery fluttered without a second thought. Cold sea water dripped from the shirt.
ha-
Suddenly, Vance let out a sigh and moved his mouth, avoiding Ahimsa’s sharp gaze.
“It’s not easy to fight a monster like that and survive. That human will have a high chance of surviving. Yeah, yeah. Well, I expected that.”
Click- click-
Vance, who was dragging one of his torn slippers, had a look of secret disappointment on his face. Still, he took it for granted that he was alive. To some, this would be a great step forward.
Just moments ago, Vance and Ahimsa had torn off the paved floor of the desalination plant to block the surging tidal wave. They had managed to hold the cylindrical structure of the plant together with their own strength. It was a device filled with purified fresh water.
and.
[ Kwarrrrrrrrrrrrrr—! ]
Soon after, a white lightning bolt that made even a tsunami look ridiculous crashed into the upper part of the barrier. The airship pushed the barrier away and sailed at full speed as if it was going to cover the residential area, but it crashed into the barrier and the first wall of the plant in succession and exploded.
[ Crackle crackle crackle—! ]
It was the loudest noise I had ever heard in my life. The world was torn in half, and the deafening roar echoed through the sky, so much so that I thought my eardrums were going to burst. To make matters worse, the Federation artillery bombed the area······.
Phew!
“?”
Ahimsa disappeared in an instant, leaving behind only an afterimage.
The Ahimsa fired a powerful blast at the unconscious Revan, spraying salty water at Vance’s face.
“Hey, maybe you should put the Techblade away. The neighborhood atmosphere is getting worse······”
Left alone, Vance grumbled and turned his gaze. It was under the collapsed wall. Then he scratched the back of his wet head and said.
“But what the hell, how did you fight that thing? Did you capture a deep-sea monster? Didn’t you just crash the airship into the barrier······.”
Underneath the first wall, where flames are rising.
The ground stirred by the impact was raised like a hill. A small mountain had appeared on the shores of Freya.
Whoosh whoosh—
And in front of the first wall, in front of the debris of the airship that was lying in front of it. A monster with its whole body crushed and broken, writhing intermittently. A spear infused with red energy and a pitch-black sword were seen fastening it to the magic engine.
Gulp······.
Something that was either the bastard’s juice or something else was spurting out onto the ground. The liquid splashed hundreds of meters away at the time of impact. Federal troops, heavily armed with hazmat suits and gas masks, were running around hurriedly, creating a restricted area. The area-wide protective shield on the wall seemed to have holes in it, and it felt like magic was leaking out.
“Oh my, this training is going to be so hard. Those poor guys.”
The only things that remained intact despite the explosion were the spear and sword, the airship engine that spewed out incredible magical power, and the monster that was several meters tall and squirted with bloodshot eyes.
“I don’t know about you, but that kid is going to die.”
The monster that was tossing and turning is now slowly becoming quiet. At first, the dizzying aura emanating from it was so strong that I thought I would die, but soon after, it slowly disappeared. I don’t know if it just died like that. I didn’t want to look at it or even approach it, so I turned my gaze away.
Juruk-
Vance wiped away the blood flowing from his nose and slowly looked around the beach, which was a total mess. It was summer vacation, but the beach was completely destroyed. The vacation of swimming was gone.
Then, Vance burst out laughing for a moment. This is no joke. It seems like the Twelve Emperors would get together and do something crazy. Did they get together like the legendary Three Gods?
Cool—
“Oh! Right. I have to go and ask for some water.”
Suddenly, Vance heard a cough and quickly moved.
Thud!
Just now. Rosario Paul, the executive director of Undine Corporation, fainted and gushed blood from his eyes, nose, and mouth as soon as he felt the aura of the corpse stuck in front of the airship.
Vance picked her up with one hand as she lay prone.
Soon, I started walking diligently, my torn flip-flops lapping against the lapping sea water.
···A little later.
Hooooooooo—
Behind Vance, who was walking while carrying Rosario Paul like a piece of luggage, the dark sky was dyed with pure white magic.
Freya’s day was passing by.
* * *
How much time has passed?
Boohoo!
As soon as I woke up, the first thing I did was vomit a bucket of blood. I must have hurt my lungs, because my vomit sounded weak and raspy. Was it a broken rib? I could barely move my neck. I turned my neck with difficulty and opened my eyes.
Red, green, purple, black, white, yellow, etc······.
You can see the natural colored light pouring through the stained glass.
···Here, inside that religious building.
As expected, a man sitting in the chair at the very front appears.
Seven-legged Barna, who was praying with his hands folded in a devout manner. I was impressed by the sacred atmosphere that did not match Dylan’s large, muscular body and dark skin.
Maybe he was touched because he didn’t die and go to hell.
Soon, I feel a soft, fluffy sensation behind my back. Who brought the bed and blanket to a place like this?
I opened my mouth, feeling the soft texture of the blanket.
“Am I going to die soon?”
“Infection was avoided. However, the energy channels that the unmanned people speak of as the paths that send internal energy throughout the body were all damaged. What’s more, even the fundamental strength of a human was drained and used. My lungs were completely destroyed from repeated straining, and my blood was insufficient, so I have no healthy organs.”
I wanted to hear some hopeful stories when I woke up. I was already feeling sad. I gulped, groaning like a terminally ill patient.
“Then I’ll die within a few days.”
“If I kill the Guiluobok and pour out all the essence I have obtained, I can revive him. I have to devote myself to recovery like a wreck for at least a few months. Even then, if luck is not on your side, you may lose all your strength or die from the aftereffects. Since it varies from person to person, I can’t guarantee it.”
“That can’t be······.”
As I blushed, Varna, who had been praying, frowned and looked at me.
“Look, I’m not talking about you right now.”
“I know. Where is the living?”
“······.”
Ugh!
I tried to straighten my posture, but my insides hurt so I stopped.
The pain that came with every breath. I was so focused on beating that water ghost that I didn’t even notice the hole in my stomach. I was definitely attacked by that thing, but I don’t even remember how I prevented the infection.
Phew—
Anyway, it seems that the extreme evil spirit that jumped into the sea with confidence even took off its innate ability.
But that is not a power that can be put in and taken out at will. If you break a perfectly good vessel, will there still be water inside? It is not easy to put it back in. Of course, Akmu would not have been unaware of this fact. When someone of high skill pulls out the innate energy, it means that he will oxidize on the spot.
So, Akmu will die soon. Then, will we lose the third strongest man in the Twelve?
That wouldn’t be the case. I made up my mind and made a big concession.
“If you do that, I guess I’ll have to give up my share of the essence. I’ll gladly do it.”
“You have no share. I have already used all the essence under my judgment to breathe life into that man.”
A firm answer came back from Varna. In fact, while I was unconscious, the water ghost had extracted its great essence and had already used it up to breathe.
He saved the human who had chosen the innate ability······.
It’s easier said than done, but it must have taken a tremendous amount of mental energy. Still, since he fought with his life on the line, he must have felt like he could do that much.
But, you didn’t use it on me at all?
“I could have been better if you had woken me up and given me a heads up.”
“If that was the case, he would have died while waiting for me to wake up.”
Varna cut off the joke with one stroke and began praying again.
Meanwhile, I looked around where I was lying.
Hooooooooo······.
I wondered why I was in this old religious building and not Freya’s hospital, but the density of magic power that Varna had unleashed was extraordinary. It was as if I was standing on the summit of the Valhalla Mountains. The refined energy was being sucked into my lungs on its own.
The clean energy that has been filtered several times is especially effective in calming the throbbing blood. Thanks to that, I lay down as if I had fainted, took another deep breath, and woke up.
After waking up, I held my aching stomach and sorted out the situation. Based on the information I had discussed with Varna.
“hmm.”
first.
Named corpse, Kuroshin and one corpse with no information about humanity. The two came to kill the named ‘Gwiroebok’ who was hiding in Freya’s sea. They are at odds because they belong to different forces. It is presumed that they killed the forces of the elders who lived the longest since the first corpse and gained blood to become a little stronger. The corpses that form the core of the elders and their followers are noble blood. In other words, the first blood is mixed in.
Then, does the first corpse not intervene in the internal strife?
He said that he didn’t know until that point. But thanks to that story, my complicated mind felt like it was clearing up. Although all the corpses are cannibals, they are intelligent beings with desires and also have a desire for power. It may be that those who had a desire for power were the ones who changed their minds in the first place, so it may be that it is flowing that way.
They are already strong, but they are fighting over who can get more. In that sense, they are no different from humans. Are they really going to wait until the three of them die of old age to continue to sort out the rankings?
But, at the time I was thinking like that.
Varna opened her mouth nonchalantly.
“To heal your wounds, I extracted the magical power of someone inside your body.”
I answered immediately.
“I think I need to put that back in.”
“I can’t put it in. It has already scattered into thin air and disappeared.”
“······.”
“When I look closely, I see that your body has an affinity for mana and is in harmony with the world. Your main weapon is the sword, but any wizard would covet your body.”
“I know.”
“So if ‘he’ wants it, control of your body will pass. If you go over the wall once more, it might be different, but if you’re still at the beginning of level 10, he can handle it well.”
It was a story related to the Trinity.
The pinnacle of the magical world. That is, Raman Quonel.
Varna said casually. Now that the magic that Raman Quonel had placed in my body had completely disappeared, I too spoke about him for the first time.
“I don’t know either.”
Every wizard I met said that, so it was strange not to be on guard.
“I see.”
“The old guard is always on the lookout. And if that’s what you wanted, would you have left me here?”
In response to that question, Varna nodded quietly.
“I don’t know. Even the saints who were famous in the world, and the leaders of religions with tens of millions of followers, don’t know what tomorrow will bring.”
Now, as if he no longer cared, he left his last words and focused on praying.
“There are many people outside looking for news of you. I told you that I don’t know when you will wake up, so go out when the time comes.”
“yes.”
* * *
The peak of the Valhalla Mountains, covered in perennial snow.
Today there was no snowstorm, just clear skies.
A majestic view from the summit where time seems to have stopped. The light of the stars pouring down from the high sky illuminated the dark mountain range.
From the top, a middle-aged voice rang out.
“Just let it come up.”
Okay then.
Jeobuk-
Jeobuk-
Someone was walking up the mountain peak. A huge amount of thought followed the steps. The space I could see was distorted and crumpled repeatedly.
The owner of the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer revealed himself, leaving white footprints on the peak.
The middle-aged man waiting at the top let out a low laugh.
It was Raman Quonel, the lord of the Valhalla Mountains.
And the one who reached the top of the Valhalla Mountains let go of the person he was holding by the throat as if throwing it away and walked up to Raman Quonel.
There are few humans in the world who can so easily climb to the top of the Valhalla Mountains.
A man with indifferent eyes.
Amazon. Mengwu-gak.
The three gods of the magic world and the three gods of the martial arts world.
Under the night sky of the mountain range, two triads faced each other.
First, Raman Quonel spoke.
“A face without any regrets about life.”
“Wizard. You seem very foolish.”
“Will the reign of the Heavenly Demon be realized?”
“If that was the case, I would have started by destroying this mountain range. It’s the one closest to the sky.”
“Haha, looks like you didn’t get what you wanted!”
At Mengwu-gak’s answer, Raman Quonel’s eyes turned a deep blue. With his middle-aged appearance, he looked up at the high sky and muttered something. The next moment, a huge lightning bolt struck the mountainside diagonally. An avalanche occurred down the mountainside with a magnificent echo.
“The heaven of the martial arts world ends there! My heaven still remains!”
Kururururung—
The loud noise of an avalanche can be heard from afar. Ramon Quonel laughs and looks satisfied.
Then······.
“If you want to see the sky while you’re alive, stay here.”
Maeng Woo-gak blurted out that one word and then quickly turned around and disappeared.
As if nothing happened.
Raman Quonel just stared blankly at the back of Maeng Woo-gak as he slowly walked down the mountain. It seemed a bit bland for a meeting between two absolute beings.
yet.
“Hmm······.”
When Raman Quonel, who had been spitting out the sound of his breathing, looked up at the sky again, he saw hundreds of huge lightning bolts caught in the rippling magic and unable to fall.
The lightning that had been emitting lightning that could overwhelm even the stars was slowly losing its power as it was being eroded by the will of the blind.
A little later.
“Growing up as an orphan, you’re still sharp!”
Raman Quonel laughed heartily as he told the Valhalla Mountains to leave, then raised his hand and tore apart the remaining will of the Mengwu Pavilion with his magical power.
Booooooooooo—!
A loud noise as if the air was being ripped apart descended upon the summit of Valhalla.
Raman Quonel’s eyes, which had been bright blue, suddenly became hazy like fog.
“I wonder if I will have any regrets before I die······.”
