Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 794
Chapter 794,
Chapter 196. Big Snake Ameris (3)
In this world, there are beings who are sometimes born with incomprehensibly strong powers.
Runkandel, famous for his ‘blessed body’, and pure-blooded jiples with exceptional magical affinity are the most representative. For a very long time in human history, two families have ruled as the losers of this world based on the characteristics of their blood.
And those who come into the world with the potential to far exceed the average of such families.
For example, at the same time as being born, a human being whose standard itself is clearly different from others.
Most of them come from humble origins and suddenly rise to prominence without any special education.
Vanessa Olsen wakes up trying to save her brother who was taken away by the lord.
Born as an ordinary farmer’s child, Smarion Froch suddenly became a murderer.
Because of his strength, Hedo left the royal family and lived the life of a monster.
According to Ameris, the source of their mysterious power was the thought of the sun god.
[Kingelo’s thought is the will to deny his own death and extinction. That’s why beings with evil thoughts unconsciously destroy the ground and find an altar to wake up the corpse of the sun.]
Hedo nodded in wonder and showed a non-trivial reaction. Even if what Ameris said was true, there was nothing to be shaken about because he had set the direction and purpose of his life.
“Can you resurrect the sun god just by touching the altar?”
[It’s not enough to just touch it, but the resurrection of the sun god is possible. And his return means that the whole world will disappear. All order in this body and the world you are enjoying is destroyed, and all coincidences and inevitability disappear
.
[No matter what the outcome, the moment the sun god is resurrected, the world as you know it will inevitably disappear. Mortals will again be bound by destiny, and all immortals will converge as part of the sun god. The world will be whole again… but is that really what it looks like? A world full of dull fulfillment, where there is only conformity.]
Jin and Hedo had never experienced that world, so they couldn’t imagine it.
I wasn’t even curious. Because the world they have something to protect is the land they are standing on right now. There was nothing he wanted to gain by throwing away all the memories of the world where he fought for the people he loved and the land where he grew up in pursuit of his dreams.
Only those who have no regrets in this world will be able to wish for the resurrection of the sun god.
[That’s fortunate. From what I’ve heard from you, the Sun Gods aren’t as active on earth as they were in the past. At that time, there were too many. This body had to deal with them every day.]
“Are there any other allies except Ameris and the good heads?”
[There was, but I can’t remember. Solderlet was one who conformed to the new order, so he probably cooperated with me. Clam was also a conformist, but he… must have been destined to destroy the earth with the power and magic he controlled.] -[
I am a god who once controlled all magic in the world. However, the moment I almost destroyed the world because I couldn’t stand my own strength, I sealed myself in this mirror with the help of Solderlet.] -[What
this seal is blocking is me, the source of infinite magical power itself. And the ever-expanding magic can erase the entire world at any time…]
I suddenly remembered what Clam had said at the Colon Ruins in the past.
“Clam was sealed by Solderlet, but could it be that he also has the thoughts of the sun god…?”
[Yes. The power he had was enough to get rid of the surface world and bring out the underworld, so he became a prey for evil thoughts. He, too, is an unfortunate immortal like me. It’s because you’re bound by an unwanted fate.]
An unwanted fate.
The ‘weight of immortality’ that Ameris said meant that she could not escape that fate. Ameris had to protect the borders of the world until it was destroyed.
Jin and Hedo thought about her role for a while and had a solemn mind. Her lonely battle was still not over.
Ameris smiled as if reading their minds.
[Haha, the more I look at you, the more cute you are. You seem to think that the fate bestowed on this body is excessive.]
“That’s right.”
[Someone has to do it. You may also receive a gift from fate from time to time. Meeting mortals like you is such a thing for me.]
From now on, Ameris has gained a ‘rememberable’ companion. Because strong humans like Jin and Hedo are saying they will block the resurrection of the sun god.
[Jin.]
“Speak.”
[Fortunately, the thoughts of the sun god are not filled only with those who deny his own death. The opposite also exists.]
The thought of maintaining death.
Four of Ameris’ nine heads, including her, had such thoughts. Among the thoughts left by the sun god, she had the greatest will.
[Not only me, but most of those who block the resurrection and resurrection of the sun god. And I think that your family, Runcandel, also somehow has the power of the sun god. Did I mention it was a blessed body? A trait of your family that has been going on for over a thousand years. It is not something that mortals can achieve on their own. Of course, the possibilities of mortals are infinite… but it is only the realm of individual capabilities. No matter how great a mortal is, he alone cannot strengthen the entire clan for a thousand years.]
Ameris was convinced that the blessing in Runcandel was related to the sun god or an immortal equivalent to it.
“Couldn’t it be Solderlet’s blessing? In the first place, when the sun god existed, our family did not exist.”
[The blessing of the sun god can exist beyond time and space. But even if it wasn’t him, Solderlet would have more than enough blessings. In any case, the immortals capable of blessing that lasted for over a thousand years would be the sun god, this body before falling asleep, solderlet and heluram. But it can’t be a witch, and I don’t think I’m either, so it must be one of the two. It could be both.]
“Either way, our family will never stand on the other side of Ameris-sama.”
[Yeah, people called Ziffle, who probably received similar blessings, are already my enemies. Even if their purpose is not to resurrect the sun god, but to recreate the source stone, the essence doesn’t seem to be different. Besides, they are using the remaining energy of the sun god and even the shaman, so the crime is very serious.]
“Ameris-sama, then why don’t you join our alliance?”
Surprisingly, it was Hedo, not Jin, who made the invitation to recruit in an instant.
[Is there a separate blood oath required to sign up?]
“It’s not like that. You could describe it as a gathering of good faith.”
[Then let’s do it together. It looks like it will be a fun game.]
Ameris readily accepted the offer. It was the moment when a reliable ally was added to the Barmal Union.
[But I heard that there is someone who brings demons to the surface from the basement of the camp. Orgal is a demon that I don’t remember.]
From a while ago, Ameris had a strange feeling about that part.
As far as she knows, since she fell asleep, her vigilance has never failed. Since Ameris fell asleep in the first place, it was Jin and Hedo who first woke her up on the ground.
[There is only one entrance to the underworld here. But this guy who unknowingly brings mortals from the underground to the surface… It’s very shameful. I don’t know what kind of trick he played, so I’ll have to find out, ask him how to do it, and punish him. How many demons did he summon?]
“I don’t know exactly, but I’m guessing it won’t exceed 10,000. However, there are less than 10 demons strong enough to be a real threat.”
[It’s at the level of collecting dust. Did he evade this body’s eyes and steal it metallurgically like a thief? Using the steel portal ability you mentioned.]
“Probably.”
[Hmm… I don’t think this body would know if it’s a being with the ability to move dimensions to the extent of connecting the ground and the underground. I need to get my memories back quickly.]
“By the way, Mr. Ameris, about 500 years ago, there was a war called the Battle to Defend the Seongkuk. At that time, countless demons appeared on the ground, and there was the greatest war in human history until the Battle of the Goddess. The reason we were able to find this place is thanks to the memories of my ancestors who were active at the time.”
[It’s possible that witches intervened in the war at the time. Since there was even an item belonging to the immortal Zito, the witch must have used it to send mortals from the underworld without my knowledge. Even he didn’t open the door himself.]
“I see. Do you remember anything about Zito the Immortal? Regarding Jito, the coalition is also investigating recently.”
[Zito was an immortal who wanted himself to be the new order. Did he try to rule the world through pain? He was a monster who couldn’t guarantee victory even with his body when he had nine heads. I don’t remember how he died.]
The longer the story went on, the more Jin felt the sensation of the clogged blood opening.
Although her memories were incomplete, it was clear that the later Ameris’ memories returned, the easier it would be to grasp the intentions of her enemies.
“self!”
Suddenly, I heard Sandra’s voice. While waiting far away, he came to me first because he was curious about the situation.
“oh? Honey, who is this girl again? You keep acting like a playboy… Eup.”
Hedo naturally shut Sandra’s mouth, and Jin introduced the comrades who came to the pit to Ameris.
“This is Valeria Heister, Sandra Ziple, and Shuri of the Red Jade Tomb from the Barmal Alliance.”
[Valeria Heister. You are the record wizard Jin talked about.]
“Yes, Valeria will help you a lot in finding Ameris-sama’s memories in the future.”
The moment Valeria slightly lowered her head.
Ameris felt the intense energy of the sun god lingering in her. It was an aura that no one in the Sun God Church, including Orgal, had recognized.
[Hoh… You have the kind of thoughts I’ve never seen before, Valeria Heister.]
