I’ll Be Taking A Break For Personal Reasons - Chapter 253
“I gave it to him!”
exclaimed the old man, glaring at the colossus with mad eyes.
“Khehehe! I am! I am the king of this rock stone! A savage like you is not a monster! Everything you have! Even this priestess is originally mine, the king! Your monster dares! But today is the end!”
The old man raised his blood-soaked dagger towards the sky.
“Goddess of Creation Goddess! Great and cruel God of Destruction! The true Lord of Rockstone and your Apostle beseech you, teach that foolish giant who the true God is!”
Blah
! Blah!
Then the sky began to part.
I remembered the message I heard when
I
entered the first floor of the Tower of God.
[Clear conditions: Overcome the ordeal and save the world of ‘Rockstone’ that is on the brink of destruction]
I finally found out the identity of the ordeal on the first floor
.
Are you telling me to stop the God of Destruction from the 1st floor! The Ordeal of
the Rock on the 1st floor of the Tower of God? (3)
Kuku-kuku-kung!
Despite the daytime, the world was covered in darkness with a roar that rips through the sky. The owner of the darkness, an absurdly
gigantic
pupil that emerged from the crack in the sky, looked down at the ground. I remembered the alter ego of the God of Destruction, but the one that appeared now was 10 times bigger than the one I
had
back
then
.
Chaeng-Geurang!
“What?”
The old man looked at his dagger rolling on the floor with wide eyes. The arm holding the dagger was gone.
But that was only the beginning
.
The old man desperately begged the descending God of Destruction, but mercilessly his old tools turned to ashes like paper on fire.
“I am… … I can’t die like this… … ! Aaaaaa… … !”
Passusu!
The old man died without even screaming a single word
.
The priestess, who was lamenting at the lost crown that had fallen to the floor, shed tears as she looked at the sky where the god of destruction descended and the giant god she enshrined.
The giant who had been with the priestess for a long time knew what kind of feelings she was harboring just by looking at her eyes.
-Don’t worry, Goddess. The nightmare you saw will never happen.
The titan glared at the gigantic eyeball monster that covered the sky, the alter ego of the God of Destruction, and declared solemnly.
– A mountain-chewing giant! As long as I am!
Quadduk!
Quadruped!
The giant’s body covered with rocks heated up like red lava, and his enormous body grew with terrifying momentum.
– Get out of my world right now! You dirty eyes!
The giant bent his knees and leaped furiously toward the sky.
shah!
The eyes of the God of Destruction, who had been watching the giant flying towards him in an instant, drew an arc in a mocking way.
Familiar.
It reminded me of Narak’s ominous eye smile in the form of a human.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
After a while, divine beings that were hundreds of kilometers in size collided with each other.
Power seemed to be the superiority of a giant.
The alter ego of the God of Destruction, which was just about to descend into the world of Rockstone, was thrown out of the atmosphere.
-Haaaap!
Likewise, the giant who flew out of the atmosphere floated in space and glared at the alter ego of the God of Destruction.
Beneath the feet of the giant was not a spherical planet like Earth, but a world of rockstone that looked like a flat plate.
-Kihehehehe!
A terrifyingly ominous woman’s laughter resounded in the airless universe.
At the same time, the eyeballs of the God of Destruction, which were staring at the giant, split into bells, revealing ferocious teeth and a disgustingly wriggling black tongue like the jaws of a beast.
Rotten saliva flowed from his mouth as if he was blatantly revealing his appetite for the giant god.
– You dirty monster with eyes!
The titan drew out his own giant sword, blatantly expressing his disgust.
A sharp and majestic sword that seemed to pierce the sky was aimed at the alter ego of the God of Destruction.
-I’ll pop those disgusting eyeballs!
The ghost god roared and swung his sword at the god of destruction.
Shih! shhh!
In response, black tentacles protruded from the eyeballs of the God of Destruction and attacked the monster.
‘damn! I have to do something too!’
In the history I know, the giant is eventually defeated by the alter ego of the God of Destruction and dies along with the Rockstone world.
I was conflicted about whether I should release the parasitic young god and go out into space to help the giant.
‘however… … Do you think I don’t have to help?’
The aspect of the battle was going completely different from what I expected.
-Chuck! Did you see! You monster eyeballs! This is the rock stone god! I am the power of a mountain-chewing giant!
Kwajik!
The giant exploded and roared as it trampled the tattered alter ego of the God of Destruction with its feet.
The giant’s face was also a mess, and blood like lava was dripping from his body even now, but it was definitely him who had won.
Could it be that the history I knew will change?
– I’ll cut off your breath!
It was the time when the giant with the sword held high was about to strike the final blow at the alter ego of the God of Destruction.
-Kihihihi!
-Kyahahahahaha!
– Hee hee hee!
Creepy, ominous laughter was heard from all directions.
Great! Blasphemy! Damn it!
At the same time, parts of the universe split apart, and other eyeball-shaped alter egos of destruction appeared.
The number of newly appeared alter egos of the God of Destruction is three.
They giggled as they surrounded the colossus.
Poududeuk!
– These damn monsters!
The enraged giant tried to swing his sword at the alter egos of the God of Destruction who surrounded him.
Squeak slither.
Then, the alter egos of the God of Destruction gathered together in one place and naturally became one as if water droplets were merging.
Ssssss!
Even the alter ego, which was disgraced by the giant, was scattered and absorbed by it.
Despair descended.
When a total of four alter egos of the God of Destruction merged into one, a monster that could swallow a planet in one bite was born.
Deed deed deed!
A roar resounded through the universe.
But that was just the gaze of the God of Destruction moving towards the giant.
Even the colossus boasting an overwhelming size was inferior to a mouse in front of a lion compared to the current God of Destruction.
-What kind of nonsense… … .
The stone arm of the giant holding the sword trembled.
Although he was a colossus who lived a life of omnipotence that nothing dared to oppose, he felt fear for the first time at this moment.
If you face it, you die.
I want to run away.
It is a being of such a different rank that even the advanced rookie himself cannot dare to approach it.
What was even more terrifying was that it was only a small part of the main body.
-Kihehehehe!
Then, the bloody eyes of the God of Destruction, blazing like the sun, drew an arc again, and his will was conveyed.
If you want to run away, I will let you go.
Instead, leave your world and the priestess behind.
At that sweet temptation, the giant’s gaze briefly turned to his world, Rockstone.
“You mountain-chewing giant, my precious one. Please be safe… … .”
정확히는 두 손을 모은 채 간절히 기도하는 신녀에게로.
-개 같은 소리 하지 마라! 역겨운 눈알 괴물아!
거신이 이를 부드득 갈았다.
지금은 공포에 질려 있을 때가 아니다.
-이노오오옴! 내가 바로 락스톤의 신! 산을 씹는 거신이도다!
거신이 피를 토할 듯 포효하며 자신의 세계와 신녀를 지키기 위해 파괴신에게 돌진했다.
***
산을 씹는 거신은 분투했다.
목숨마저 도외시하며 자신의 모든 것을 쏟아붓는 그의 전투력은 상급 신의 경지를 아득히 초월하고 있었다.
하지만 그럼에도 불구하고 현실은 잔혹했다.
번쩍!
콰아아아아!
-끄아아아아악!
파괴신이 쏟아 낸 붉은 파괴 광선에 휩싸인 거신이 락스톤의 세계로 추락했다.
콰르르 콰콰쾅!
-끄으으…… 커허억!
지상에 처박힌 거신이 용암 같은 피를 강물처럼 토했다.
그의 몰골은 처참했다.
바위 같은 피부는 뜯겨 나가 장기가 보였고 사지는 왼팔 단 하나만을 제외하고는 파괴신에게 모두 뜯어먹혔다.
“거신이시여!”
A priestess was running towards him, crying out in the distance.
The giant stretched out its one remaining arm and shouted urgently.
– come… … Mara!
Deed deed deed!
A black shadow covered the world of Rock Stone, and the alter ego of the God of Destruction reappeared.
The alter ego was also not safe.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Black steam like sewage was vomiting like blood from a hole tens of kilometers in the eyeball, which seemed to have been left by a giant.
However, it is clear that he won the battle of the gods.
And the alter ego of the God of Destruction wanted the spoils.
What a bummer!
The eyeball split open, revealing its hideous mouth again.
A black hole-like darkness that would destroy and annihilate everything was raging beyond the jaws of a man who could swallow the world in one bite.
-Turn it off!
The giant crawled on the ground with one remaining hand. The place he was heading to was his own sword stuck in the ground.
Whoops! Whoops!
The sword, broken in half and full of gold everywhere, was bruised like its owner, but as if it could still fight, it trembled anxiously and waited for the owner’s hand.
“It’s a giant!”
And despite the colossus’ refusal, the priestess cries anxiously and runs towards him. Could it
be because of being parasitic to the giantess?
The memory of the first encounter with the priestess and the giantess flashed through my mind. There were
still countless gods besides the giantgod, fighting for supremacy over this rock stone. -What are you? I
‘ll give you
this
, so please protect our village!”
At that time, it was common for people suffering from the annoyance of the gods to ask for help from a strong god.
However, what the girl offered was neither valuable wealth nor rare treasures, but flowers picked from the mountain.
– Hmmm. I want God’s protection just like flowers.
The girl cried and eagerly looked up at the giant.
“Oh, can’t I somehow? At this rate, our village… … .”
아무리 생각해도 영 수지가 맞지 않는 일이다.
하지만 거신은 소녀의 부탁을 들어주기로 결심했다.
마침 심심하기도 했지만 무엇보다도 그 소녀가 그 어떤 재물이나 보물보다도 아름다웠기 때문이다.
만약 더러운 사내놈이 왔다면 말을 들어주기는커녕 쳐 죽였을지도 모르지만.
거신이 손가락을 까닥였다.
휘리릭 휘리릭!
그러자 소녀가 안고 있던 꽃들이 허공을 날더니 그중 새하얀 꽃 한 송이가 그녀의 머리에 내려앉았다.
거신이 멋쩍은 듯 코를 슥 검지로 훑으며 말했다.
-역시 꽃은 나보다는 너에게 어울리는구나. 마을로 안내해라 꽃보다 아름다운 소녀야.
그리고 훗날 이 소녀가 그저 두려움의 대상에 불과했던 거신을 진정으로 섬긴 첫 번째 신도이자 신녀가 된다.
그리고 거신이 유일하게 사랑했던 단 하나의 여인이.
-끄으으으…….
부러진 검까지 불과 한 뼘만을 남겨 둔 채 거신이 애타게 손을 뻗었다. 피를 너무 많이 흘렸는지 그의 안색이 백옥처럼 창백했다.
-끄으으 살려야…… 내 신녀만은…… 반드시……. 도와주시오.누구든 좋으니 제발…….
나는 이 이야기의 결말을 안다.
이들의 끝은 배드엔딩.
나락에게 무참히 멸망당한 전생의 내 세계처럼 말이다.
그래 만약에 내가 없었다면.
