Warriors Come to My Prison - Warriors Come to My Prison chapter 129
Side story. High Elves and Dimensional Dragons (7)
Albenius handed over champagne.
“Good job. Now Daydram will not have to worry about the end.”
“Thank you. It’s thanks to Albenius-sama.”
“But it took longer than expected. What happened?”
“···Nope. nothing.”

Julia laughed awkwardly. Despite Albenius’ assertion, I couldn’t bear to say that I was doing something stupid because I was anxious.
“By the way, are you talking about everything now?”
“Because that’s what I came for.”
Albenius nodded.

Just-
When I flicked my fingers lightly, an intangible membrane enveloped the surroundings.
“Can I use my strength? Aren’t you being chased by the gods?”
“Did I tell you that you are pursued by the gods?”
“Not directly, but if you don’t notice it for half a year, you’re an idiot.”
“but.”
Albenius smiled.
“This much doesn’t matter. If he was going to be caught at this level, he would have been captured and killed by the gods right away.”
“Even the gods are not omnipotent.”
“Are you guessing?”
Albenius emptied his remaining wine glass. I leaned on the terrace and looked at Yulia.
“So what do you most want to ask?”
“The person Albenius-nim always talked about was Kim Woo-jin. You said he was alive?”
“yes.”
“I killed God.”
“He killed the ‘gods’.”
“…You are more amazing than I expected. I want to know where he is.”
“prison.”
“Yeah?”
Albenius spoke of purgatory, a prison created and operated by the gods from long ago.
“…If you don’t give up your strength, you’ll imprison the warriors? Are you saying that you use it to your heart’s content and vomit?”
“yes. Exactly.”
“How could people called gods do that?”
“Because God can do that. They take it for granted that everything goes their way.”
So, they wiped out the tribes that would threaten their power in advance.
“Then you won’t be able to meet him.”
“For the time being, it will be.”
“What if for the time being?”
“As you might guess, I am a body that cannot live under the same universe as the gods. Either they fail or I fail, one of them has to end.”
Of course, the possibility that Albenius will come to an end is remarkably high. But that doesn’t mean you can’t do anything and just get hit.
“So I decided to break the vaccine war. The World Tree of Daydram agreed with me.”
Over the past 40 years, he has been gathering people who have hatred and anger towards the gods.
“Kim Woo-jin. Are you trying to get him out of prison?”
“Should I call it ‘Exodus’ or ‘Exodus’…”
Albenius scratched his chin.
“Kim Woo-jin is the director of Purgatory.”
“···Yeah?”
It took a long time for Yulia to understand the exact situation.
* * *
“So to sum it up, you made a deal with the gods.”
In order to save the dimension called Glacc that he saved.
“yes.”
“He is a real hero.”
“A hero.”
With what kind of heart did he do that, what Kim Woo-jin did was to save everyone in the dimension and sacrifice himself.
“Even the gods are evil. Entrusting the management of the warriors to a former hero.”
“They’re selfish guys who can’t like you even if you want to like them.”
The flow of the story continued to Albenius’ goal.
“So the most important thing is to bring Kim Woo-jin here and get rid of Purgatory.”
Kim Woo-jin is the first God Slayer to kill God. There’s a big difference between what he’s with and what he’s not.
Either through actual force or symbolism.
And purgatory is the crystallization of the arrogance and greed of the gods. Destroying it and bringing back the warriors is the top priority.
“Is there a way?”
“There is only one way for non-Gods to enter Purgatory. To become a hero, save a dimension, and then say that you will not give up your power.”
“You’re going in as a prisoner.”
“yes. Someone already has it in mind.”
“Are you Ballach?”
One of the strongest elves I’ve ever met in Elven. In other words, it also means a person with a high possibility of becoming a hero.
“that’s right.”
“But I go in as a prisoner, can I break Purgatory? Ah, I guess I can convince Kim Woo-jin by naming Albenius-sama.”
“That’s not allowed.”
“why?”
“Because Kim Woo-jin has been tortured in isolation for the past 20 years.”
Albenius believes in Kim Woo-jin. Kim Woo-jin from 40 years ago. Even Kim Woo-jin, who was tortured by the gods, cannot be trusted.
Even though he was strong, his mental powers were human after all. Did he survive the torture that even dragons can’t bear?
Of course, it could be because he is a special human being who killed God for the first time. But there is what if. As it is dealing with the gods, it is good to be careful of small variables.
“My goal is to convince Kim Woo-jin to become an ally, but I can’t approach him rashly. Because I can’t be sure whether Kim Woo-jin became the dog of the gods or not.”
“understood. But I don’t think such a great person would have gone over to the gods.”
“It’s something we can’t be quick to judge.”
“I just want to believe that.”
“And he was very suspicious in the first place. Even if I didn’t fall for God, if I mentioned my name prematurely, they would start with suspicion.”
“Then how to solve it?”
“The seed of the world tree.”
“A seed?”
“We make seeds planted in Purgatory and contact them through the World Tree in Daydram. And it’s best if I convince myself.”
“It seems so.”
“No matter who made the plan.”
Albenius shrugged.
It would take a very long time considering the time the world tree grows, but it was dealing with the gods in the first place.
The preparation wasn’t perfect yet, so I took time to consider that as well.
“But can I go in with the seeds?”
“When it comes to space, I have the upper hand over the gods. It is possible to create a subspace that even the gods can fool. Of course, you will have to lie down for a few months after doing it, but you won’t notice it unless you’re on the same level as the master.”
Well, Yulia thought for a moment.
“Then can I go?”
“What?”
“No, it is much faster. Rather than waiting for Ballack to become a hero and prevent the end. When it will happen, there is no promise, right? By comparison, I’ve already saved the plane, and soon the gods will come to meet me. How long will it take?”
“…usually it comes in four days.”
“Then it’s tomorrow. Considering the time from planting the seeds of the mother tree to growing, isn’t the sooner the better?”
“That’s true, but… It’s dangerous.”
“I have never been in danger in my life. I want to meet him in person and ask him. How was the end of Seide? And I also want to avenge Seide.”
He lost his real family and even Seid, who was his only family, to God. Her anger was justified.
“I don’t know what will happen if I get caught.”
“Since he was a hero who became a dog of the gods or not, would you mind looking after him?”
“He’s not that generous.”
“Then we have to do our best to be careful.”
“…This is out of the plan. It’s no wonder I talked to you about trivial things because of Sade.”
“It’s me who asked and volunteered.”
After thinking for a while, Albenius nodded.
“It is not a matter for me to judge alone. I will come after talking with the World Tree, so enjoy the banquet.”
“As much as you like.”
“Come back soon.”
Albenius is gone.
Music and people’s voices could be heard again.
“It’s a beautiful night.”
Yulia watched the bright full moon for a long time, which she wouldn’t be able to see for a while.

pure white space.

Julia noticed where this place was. Because you’ve already been there once.
“See God.”
He bowed his head. God, who had been standing awake, gave a satisfied smile. It is the god who chose Yulia and sent her to the Daydram.
“Excellent. You did a great job of stopping the apocalypse and saving the world. You are a hero.”
“thank you.”
“So you have three paths.”
God spread three fingers.
“Three?”
“One is to give up one’s power and return to the original world after receiving a reasonable price.”
“Give up your power?”
“Listen to the end.”
“···Yeah. sorry.”
“The second is to return as it is without giving up your power.”
And the last third.
“Don’t you want to serve me?”
Yulia swallowed dry saliva.
‘That’s it.’
Albenius said that the gods wanted to make mighty warriors into their limbs.
If she was at her level, she would be able to make an offer.
However, the choice Yulia would take had already been decided.
“no. I want to go back to my original dimension. I am so tired.”
“Right. I respect your opinion.”
Fortunately, God calmly agreed.
“If so, you have two options.”
Give up your powers and return to your original world.
Return to the original world without giving up power.
“Can I do whatever I want?”
“yes. You are the hero who saved the world. There are as many options as there are.”

Julia pondered for a moment. I pretended to be worried.
Full of goodwill, but it wasn’t. According to Albenius, the moment you choose the second option is the beginning.
“…I can’t give up my strength. Proof that I was in the Daydram, my efforts, and the efforts of those who died to prevent the apocalypse.”
“I understand. No matter how much we give it away, it’s up to you to grow it and prevent its end. I do not intend to denigrate the effort and hardship. But don’t ask me one more time. Are you really not going to give up your power?”
“Yeah.”
“great. I will respect your choice.”
God’s hand touched Yulia’s head.
“Close your eyes.”
“Yeah.”
“When you open your eyes again, you will be back where you were supposed to be.”
“Yes, thank you.”
“I am.”
end with that.
The world turned upside down.
“Tsk, that’s a shame.”
The sound of God’s tongue clicking was heard.
When Yulia opened her eyes again, it wasn’t Arban.
Darkness where nothing can be seen. His power was limited, so he couldn’t feel any mana or the power of a hero.
I didn’t know how much time had passed.
“Follow me.”
With her entire body restrained, she was dragged away.
And when all restraints are released and I open my eyes again.
“Yulia Karsen, is that right?”
A black-haired man was sitting in front of him with a face filled with annoyance.
‘This person…’
Woojin Kim.
Seid’s colleague whom he longed to meet.
Warden of Purgatory.
“Yeah.”
“… the answer is quick. My race is an elf.”
There were many things I wanted to ask. It seemed like he would ask about Albenius and Seide if he opened his mouth right now.
But I persevered.
Because I can’t be sure that the current Kim Woo-jin will be the hero Albenius told me about.
Not yet, not yet.
He barely restrained his urge and spat out the words as his tongue took them.
“It’s wrong.”
“You’re not an elf?”
A quibble that doesn’t make any sense.
But thanks to that brief cavil, Yulia was barely able to calm herself down.
“It’s a high elf, to be exact.”
she replied calmly.
“Damn it. Age is?”
“I am 237 years old.”
“You’re young.”
“For a high elf, yes.”
“I’m from the dimension called Arban.”
“Yeah.”
“I saved the Daydram.”
“It was the dimension where Gwangryong went crazy. It was pretty tough.”
You said you stopped the dragon?
“Do you know where this is?”
“It’s a prison.”
After all, few prisoners know as much about Purgatory as she does.
“Do you know why you ended up in prison?”
“I guess roughly. Should I say the question was too blatant?”
It’s not a guess, it’s a certainty.
“Then what is the answer?”
“Wouldn’t coming here be the answer?”
“There are only two ways to get out of here.”
“One is to accept the offer, and the other is to leave as a corpse.”
“You know that and still refuse?”
“Could there be another way?”
“Everyone who came here for the first time thinks the same as you. But how many do you think escaped?”
“That is impossible. But that’s how it is now. you know? High elves have a long time.”
“… Damn elves.”
Kim Woo-jin spits out a curse word.
I almost laughed because the nervous expression was exactly the same as Albenius’ detailed explanation.
“I get it. 1178.”
“1178? what is that?”
“Your prisoner number.”
“Aha, it’s too bad there aren’t any 3s.”
“3?”
“I don’t know about the other elves, but the elves in our dimension considered 3 a lucky number.”
“Right.”
Albenius did. In Kim Woo-jin’s country, 3 is a lucky number. I threw it away, but there was no significant change in expression.
“Take him.”
Prison guards took her and led her to solitary confinement.
“Be quiet.”
“…This is solitary confinement.”
It was quite spacious, but there was nothing to say about it.
‘What should I do next?’
sorted out the plan. Find out if Kim Woo-jin has become a dog of the gods or not, and make him plant the seeds of the world tree.
While I was thinking about it, dinner came out.
“Wow. The rice here is very delicious.”
It was the most delicious thing I’ve ever eaten in my life. Life in purgatory didn’t seem all that bad. It was night.
“hey. Elf number 1178.”
A voice came through the open distribution port.
Yulia stuck her head out.
“You mean that? I think you’re in the next room.”
“I ask straight forward. Don’t you want to jailbreak? Surely you don’t want to stay in this dog-like place forever?”
“I don’t know if that is still the case. The facility itself is not bad.”
“You know I’m not saying that, right?”
“Mmm.”
it’s a jailbreak I don’t have any particular thoughts, but it would be better to get acquainted with the prisoners and understand the circumstances of Purgatory.
“Is there a way?”
She smiled.
