Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 109

Episode 109:

Ice Flower

Fabavat –

Barasen crossed the flames and quickly reached the central temple.

Due to the nature of his race, he has a sensitive sense of smell, and he had already figured out that Elric’s magic scent had reached the central temple a few days ago.

just as expected.

As he crossed the hallway filled with numerous statues and reached the center, several flower gods blocked his path.

[Uninvited guest!]

[Why did you come!]

[We never invited you!]

[This is the home of the gods!]

[Unbelievers cannot come!]

The winter flower gods had angry faces.

That is to say, no matter how much they declined, they were people who had definitely achieved godhood.

As such, they could not forgive the being who dared to damage the temple and damage its dignity, let alone respect and worship them.

Barasen also came this far with the idea of defeating Mervinger, but even just a few days ago, he was a beastman who deeply respected God, no different from other beastmen.

He quickly provided an example so that the gods of winter flowers could calm their anger even a little.

“I apologize for unintentionally disturbing the gods’ rest. “I will voluntarily accept the sin of lese majeste that I have committed this time.”

[There’s no need for that, disappear!]

[Disappear!]

[Don’t come in anymore!]

The winter flower gods were very angry, but Barasen looked embarrassed.

“I really want to do that too, but… unfortunately, we have received reports that the hero we are pursuing has hidden here, so I hope for the gods’ understanding and generosity.”

[No one!]

[There is no one here!]

[Only us!]

“We do not dare to doubt the words of the gods, but it is a credible report.”

[No!]

[You cannot search the temple without permission!]

“I’m sorry. “Please excuse me.”

Barasen forcibly pushed aside the winter flower gods who were blocking his path and entered the central area.

[You can’t!]

[You can’t come in without us!]

The gods of winter flowers stamped their feet.

A hundred years ago… no, even 40 years ago when Mervinger came to visit, it would have been possible to drive out such an uninvited guest without much difficulty!

The temple was a kind of sanctuary, and the deity, who could be said to be the owner of the temple, was literally an absolute being who ruled all providence.

However, as ‘winter’ comes, the flowers fall into hibernation one by one, and even the winter flowers have mostly withered.

In a situation where there were almost no believers visiting, they had run out of divinity and were now so weak that they could not stop even a single prisoner.

[Dongbaek hasn’t woken up yet!]

[What should we really do?]

The bigger problem was that Dongbaek, who could be considered their leader, was temporarily absent to help with the arrangements for Elric.

Elric is currently concentrating on Mervinger’s arrangements in a small secret room located next to the central temple.

The camellia god had clearly given them a favor.

There must be absolutely no external interference while the arrangement is in progress.

-Do you understand? If the world of imagination is destroyed, Mervinger’s descendants and I could be trapped there as well. Please, everyone, please make sure there are no intruders.

I didn’t understand why I was trapped in a world of images, but I knew one thing.

We must not let Barasen pass like this!

Whihwihwi!

A flower vine burst out through the marble floor and grabbed Barasen’s ankle. Flower petals fell from the sky, completely blocking the view.

but.

Chop-Chop- Chop-

Barassen waved his fingernails randomly, cutting the vines and splitting the flower petals.

“How can you not know that you can’t stop me with something like this!”

His tribe is Sasa tribe.

‘Sasa’ means ‘sand lion’ and was originally a tribe that lived in the desert area.

If you look at the racial hierarchy within the Beastman tribe, it was once a prestigious family that was on par with the Tiger family.

Although he was now loyal to the Blood King and the Youngho Clan, he was very proud of his tribe.

You’re trying to block the lion’s footsteps with something like a bunch of grass.

In fact, all I could do was snort.

Moreover, he is one of the top five fighters in Fury.

How can you call yourself a monarch if you are held back by something like this?

[Eye!]

[Stand there!]

But the more it happened, the more anxious the flower gods became, and the more they tried to hold on, the more confident Barasen became in his prediction.

“Sniff! The smell clearly leads this way…! Is it there?”

Barasen twitched the tip of his nose, discovered another passage leading to the center, and tried to move toward it.

[Oh no!]

The god of winter flowers, especially the god of water lines, was hurriedly trying to flap his wings in that direction when a bitter wind suddenly passed by her.

Again!

[Ugh! I’m dizzy!]

The god of repairs was unable to resist the wind and instead of spinning around in place like a top, he managed to maintain his balance and quickly looked in the direction where Barasen was.

A place where the bitter wind touches.

Herman was colliding with Barasen, raising his blue aura like a fierce lion.

Crying-

“You’re that annoying human I saw in Antromorph. go away!”

Barasen recalled that his subordinates had suffered great damage during the siege and quickly developed a defensive strategy. It grew to over 2 meters in size and its mane grew long around its neck.

Ugh!

He pulled out his claws and tried to push Hermann aside, but Hermann didn’t budge at all and even pushed him away.

Sand Lion and Blue Lion.

It was the moment when two lions collided.

* * *

Right at that time.

Elric was still working on the second half of the arrangement without any idea what was going on outside.

Kwakkkkkkkkkkkwakkkuk-

kkuk-kuk!

A battle in which King Yulho overwhelmingly pushes General Dong and Elric continues to assist by his side.

Their passing scores for the training really matched up as if they had measured it with a ruler. Every time that happened, General Dong’s hands and feet continued to break and he was thrown endlessly.

Elric’s steel body techniques have also become infinitely more sophisticated. King Yulho was also rapidly becoming stronger as he watched Elric’s ‘future’ strong body techniques.

But…

‘It shouldn’t be like this.’

Elric was under threat that at some point the victory might go to the other side.

[It would be best not to look down on General Dongbaek too much.]

The Dongbaek God continued speaking in a calm tone, as if he had read Elric’s thoughts this time.

[No matter what, even after it was separated from the woman, it wandered around alone for a long time, accumulating evil thoughts and attracting evil intentions.] At some point, there was something in her eyes when she looked at

General Dong . There was no emotion involved.

Is this on purpose or is it really just dismissed as something separate now?

Even though he couldn’t tell which one, Elric had no choice but to agree with Dongbaek Shin’s words.

‘I keep getting stronger…’

I wonder if General Dong possesses infinite magical power, but he continues to regenerate even after being broken, so I couldn’t guess the end.

No, on the contrary, the regenerated part became much stronger than before, and the simple movements continued to become more sophisticated as time passed.

It’s still the same now.

Tsutsutsu –

Even though half of his body was clearly blown away, his body was regenerating at a rapid rate due to the blowing snow.

Movements were also much more agile than before.

This means that this guy, who looks like a rag doll on the outside, even has the ability to learn.

“…If you keep doing this, I’m leaving.”

At that time, King Yulho muttered as he looked at General Dong in bewilderment.

Then I turned around and looked at Elric.

“Why not?”

“…yes. “Maybe.”

Elric nodded heavily.

“I can see the other guys getting tired too.”

As if they were only dealing with General Dong, the expedition party seemed to be becoming more and more dangerous as the number of ice monsters under General Dong continued to increase. As time passed, the number of injured continued to increase.

“Well, anyway, our goal in the first place was to find out exactly who this damn General Dong is, so the mission is accomplished.”

King Yulho frowned.

“I don’t think those damn bastards will just let us go… Tsk! I can’t help it. hey.”

“I won’t.”

“I haven’t said anything yet?”

“Do you have to tell me directly to know? “You’ll know when you hear it.”

“If someone sees it, will they think I’m trying to attract attention?”

King Yulho looked at Elric in bewilderment, but Elric still remained steadfast.

King Yulho was telling Elric to lead an exploration party and escape from here while he was still biding his time.

If he was alone here, the exploration team would likely be wiped out if he stayed like this. Because losing them meant that the beast people had no future.

However, for Elric, it was a strategy not worth listening to.

Abandon King Yulho.

What does that mean?

but.

King Yulho soon hardened his expression.

“Take the exploration team and leave. “For now, you are the only one who can lead those guys and escape safely.”

“Will you listen to me? I would rather stay. “The chieftain will take you.”

For Elric, this was natural.

This was a planned event, and if this episode was a failure, there was a need to learn a little more about General Dong. In the end, the final obstacle in the arrangement will be General Dong.

but.

“Do I have to pay the price?”

“….”

He said this out loud, but I couldn’t say anything.

King Yulho raised one corner of his mouth and raised his fist.

“If you don’t want to, you can lie on the floor here for defiance. “What do you want to do?”

“…shit! I’ll do it! “You can do it!”

It would be better than repeating a new round with no gain.

Elric finally said while sighing.

“But I’ll be back soon. In the meantime, don’t give up.”

“joy! Are you saying you’re losing? who?”

Elric smiled bitterly at King Yulho’s confident answer.

I felt that way intuitively.

It feels like this episode is slowly reaching its end.

‘Maybe this will be the last time I see this person.’

Of course, if you repeat the episode, you can watch it again as many times as you want.

Even so, the fact that King Yulho would not be able to do that ‘this time’ was a bittersweet experience for Elric.

He was the person who cared the most about me and approached me in a friendly way.

The same goes for other Antromorph beasts.

They are four mutts, including Ralph, and they are people who have been grateful to Elric all this time, whether they know it or not, all the various tribe members.

so that.

Elric felt a little sick, but he also felt like everything went well.

Even though it was a virtual world that would start anew when he died, he did not want to see them collapse in vain on a snowy field like this.

And I planned to somehow return here after escaping the exploration team to Antromorph, just to say my final goodbyes.

“Then let’s go.”

“okay. “Stop talking nonsense and go quickly.”

King Yulho saw off Elric, who turned away, and rushed towards General Dong again.

Elric shouted loudly, pouring a lot of magic into his voice.

“retreat! “The entire exploration team retreats to Antromorph!”

* * *

Elric led the exploration party and managed to escape from General Dong’s territory.

The ice monsters tried to catch up to the end, but thanks to King Yulho’s continued restraint and Elric’s magic, they somehow succeeded in eluding them.

“Whoa, whoa… is he alive?”

“Damn… I thought I was going to die.”

“What on earth are those monsters…? “Can we beat them all?”

The exploration team members sighed with relief at the fact that they had barely survived, but at the same time, their faces were filled with worry.

General Dong made me cringe just by looking at him. If it were to invade Antromorph soon, I was at a loss as to how to resist it.

Meanwhile.

The four mutts, including Ralph, approached Elric with impatient expressions.

“Elric, shouldn’t we hurry and go rescue the chieftain?”

“I won’t ask you to come with me, so teach us the magic you first showed us!”

The SS was ready to attack General Dong’s location again. All the fighters in Antromorph were preparing to be mobilized.

“Elric? Elric!”

But Elric could hardly hear Ralph’s anxious voice.

Where his eyes landed.

The camellia tree that I had grown with great care for the past 100 days… was blooming.

A bright red flower that looks as if drops of blood have fallen on it.
