Episode 544
Chapter 147 Nastrond (4)
Frondior asked Selena softly.
“Selena, do you see? The thread that Fenrir is tied to.”
Selena nodded with her mouth covered.
Selena, who had far better eyesight than Frondier, knew from the beginning that Fenrir was tied up.
Even though I knew it, I couldn’t move because of fear.
Looking at that, Frondier thought:
‘Selena has a very keen sense of humor. She reacts immediately to Ampere’s fleeting display of aggression and immediately recognizes him as a terrorist in the department store.’
Selena was terrified when she saw Fenrir tied up like that.
In other words, that wolf cannot be safe just by being tied up.
“···Wait here·”
Frondier walked slowly as he spoke. Nothing will change if we continue like this. We must prepare ourselves and move forward.
Kook·
But Selena grabbed Frondier’s sleeve.
When I looked at his face, he was shaking his head.
‘Just go somewhere else!’ He was shouting passionately with his eyes.
“···That’s why I told you to stay here·”
Frondior gently pulled away Selena’s hand that he was holding as he spoke.
“Ugh···!”
Selena looked very embarrassed, but she continued to follow Frondier. Belphegor also kept pace with Frondier with a nervous expression.
‘I have to check it out’
Frondier has a distinct sense of foreboding about the thread that binds Fenrir. No, he already has a sense of foreboding.
Heukcheon·
The thread that bound Fenrir looked so similar to that.
‘It’s not just because it’s a black thread. That mana feels so familiar to me that I’m seeing it for the first time.’
In mythology, that thread should originally be Gleipnir.
So is Black Sky originally Gleipnir? Or is the situation in this world different, and Black Sky is binding Fenrir instead of Gleipnir?
But either way, there is a common problem:
‘···I don’t think I can tie up Fenrir with my black sky·’
As I approached a little closer, I finally came into view of Fenrir in its entirety.
Fenrir was a giant white wolf, just like in the myth. Of course, according to the myth, he should have been so big that he could swallow the ends of the sky and the ends of the earth, but he wasn’t that big.
Still, it feels overwhelming to look up at a wolf walking on all fours for a long time.
Krr …
Fenrir’s eyes seemed to be wary of Frondier and the other two. He didn’t seem to have any intention of attacking yet, but he was ready to do so at any time.
“···Hello, Fenrir·”
Frontier pondered what to say, and ended up giving everyone the usual greeting he always gave them.
Then Fenrir saw Frondier.
[···Devil, no, human?]
“!”
Frontier was surprised
It was surprising that Fenrir spoke without moving his mouth, and that the meaning came into his head, but it was also because his words seemed to see through his identity at a glance.
Belphegor, who was standing next to me, said:
“You’re a new devil. You haven’t been a devil for long.”
[···Belphegor·]
Fenrir seemed to know Belphegor. Well, it had been quite some time since Belphegor had fallen to Nastrond, so they might have known each other’s faces.
[You killed Nidhogg.]
But Fenrir seemed to know Belphegor better than Frondier had expected.
Belphegor laughed.
“Then, it’s thanks to your help.”
[I breathed into Nidhogg a sigh of relief and brought him into my domain.]
I see Frondier and Belphegor, who are dumbfounded by those words.
“You said you didn’t know why Fenrir bit Nidhogg.”
“I didn’t know. It’s true that I planted sloth in Nidhogg, but it was unexpected that he went into Fenrir’s territory, and that Fenrir bit Nidhogg because of it.”
Eclectis can only influence, and cannot predict or control how the affected person will move. It is not like hypnosis.
[Nidhogg was always breathing life into me. I didn’t know that.]
“Nidhogg?”
[Since I came here, all the wolves in Nastrond have been scared.]
···Ohora·
Frontier nodded, understanding roughly.
Originally, there were wolves in Nastrond, as well as Nidhogg. They tormented sinners and devoured their bodies endlessly.
In Nastrond, Nidhogg was originally the king, so the wolves would have obeyed Nidhogg as well.
But did that change when Fenrir came?
Fenrir is the true king of all beasts.
[Belphegor, Nidhogg’s self-control has been broken by the indolence you have bestowed upon him.]
“So that’s why I lost my mind and attacked you.”
[He didn’t attack me. I bit him before. He came close enough to bite me, so it’s only natural. He must have intended to attack me.]
What kind of crazy guy is this? He bit it because he could.
[And humans·]
This time Fenrir saw Frondeer.
[You are now within my attack range]
“······”
Frondier examined Fenrir’s entire body.
Looking at the tied up state, even if Fenrir stretches out his body, his teeth won’t reach Frondier. Even if he swings his forelegs, it’s precarious. But Fenrir says he’s still within attack range. Is this the anxiety that Selena was telling him not to go?
“I came here because I wanted to ask you something.”
Frondier brushed aside Fenrir’s warning and said,
[hmm·]
Fenrir heard Frondier’s words and
Boom─!!
He shouted at Frondi as if he was a lion.
“Ugh!”
Aura releases. Frondia’s body floats up and is pushed away.
Kkwadduk!
He pulled out his sword and stabbed it into the ground. The blade made an uneasy sound as it gnawed at the ground. The pressure of the aura was so great that Frondia felt like he was stabbing the blade into a cliff rather than the ground. The pressure of the aura was comparable to gravity.
[Get out of here·]
A cold voice flying towards the faraway Frondier.
[There is nothing to answer to someone who cannot withstand this much strength.]
“······”
At those words, Frondior was silent for a moment.
And Selena and Belphegor saw that.
“ah·”
Selena let out a short cry.
“this·”
Belphegor sighed.
The two moved in unison as if they had prepared in advance.
Selena to Frondier, Belphegor to Fenrir.
“Frontier, this is a trivial provocation. It would be better to conserve strength for the coming battle.”
“Fenrir, I know you’re sensitive, but you don’t have to be. I just wanted to talk.”
Fenrir tilted his head as if he was bored after hearing Belphegor’s words. Frondier didn’t know, but it seemed like he was listening to Belphegor’s words.
It’s not hard to listen to the story. Let’s hear what questions he’s trying to ask. When Fenrir thought about it that far.
“Selena, Belphegor”
Frontier’s mouth opened.
At that voice, Selena lowered her head, and Belphegor lowered his shoulders.
“Both of you get out of the way.”
The two left the place without a moment’s hesitation at Frondier’s words.
The straight distance between Fenrir and Frondier was completely emptied.
straight line·
In front of the frontier, the body is tied up and in a straight line.
What this means, only Fenrir in this world does not know.
“Hey, wolf.”
[···what?]
“Judging by the way you speak, it seems like you also think that ‘only the strong are recognized’?”
Fenrir just tested Frondier.
How much can you cope with your own aura emissions, how long can you endure?
And Frontier failed that test.
The reason is simple:
Because I had no intention of antagonizing Fenrir.
“Okay, okay. I understand. I understand. I’ve met a lot of guys like you. Guys who make fun of the weak and respect the strong. They’re perverts that I can’t understand at all, but I’ve learned how to deal with them.”
Frontier opened his right hand.
Weaving, Mjolnir
I opened my left hand.
Weaving, Excalibur·
[···!]
The atmosphere of Frondi changed completely. Fenrir’s eyes widened at that.
“I was worried that you might be wary of me, that you might misunderstand my Auror as a threat, but that wasn’t the case. Of course it was. You’re Fenrir, after all. I underestimated you to think that the King of Beasts would misunderstand something like that.
In addition, Frondia swallowed the Dragon Heart.
Boohoo─!!
The aura of Frondia is imbued into both weapons.
His wings spread, and his mana soared.
Heukcheon operation
The spreading black sky colors the two weapons, and his mana gathers into Excalibur.
“In my experience, guys like you who pursue strength don’t mind getting hurt a little.”
For example, like Renzo
Renzo finds fighting the strong fun, and doesn’t care if he gets hurt in the process. Of course, dying is a separate issue.
However, there is one thing that Frontier overlooks:
Renzo is a madman, not only among humans, but also among demons and gods.
Fenrir isn’t that crazy.
“I will pass your test”
[···No, just a moment·]
Frondior laughed.
He smiled with a face that had no intention of killing or fighting.
I didn’t really mean it that way.
Frondier is not trying to fight Fenrir right now.
Fenrir sees Frondi as weak, so he must show that he is strong.
And then·
“we·”
Whirik·
Excalibur, held in reverse
The tip of the sword points towards Fenrir.
“Can we be friends?”
Shhhh!!
Mjolnir in the other hand that swings
Kaaa …
Black energy emission
Frontier Original
affection
[···Boom!]
In order for Fenrir to respond to this attack, he had to first release his aura.
I was so shocked by Frondier’s attack that my body froze.
The black energy ‘Jeong’ split the air and rushed before Fenrir’s eyes,
Swish─
Passing by my ear
Phew─
Kwaaaaaaaah!!!
It flew far away and hit a wall somewhere on the other side, making a loud noise.
Earthquakes strike from far away, and the dust blows up, blurring my vision.
After all the dust has cleared away,
“Hmm·”
Frontier lightly clenched and unclenched his two hands. The two weapons were already gone.
“This is what it feels like to be a devil”
Frondier has fought Belphegor and has learned
Demons are originally closer to mana than humans. Because of this, they can almost innately control aura.
But that trait is not only realized in auras, magic is the same.
Belphegor used most of his magic during the fight with Frondier without any steps. That is also why Frondier chose close combat.
The devil’s characteristics always made Frondia angry, but
Now he is the devil. The traits that used to make him angry are now his own.
“So, what do you think?”
Frondier said to Fenrir:
Fenrir, who still turned his head towards the scene behind him, where his spirit had flown away and collapsed.
“Does this give me the right to ask questions?”
Fenrir is looking behind him, so Frondier cannot see his expression.
But after a while·
[···I see·]
Fenrir turned his head back to the front and looked at Frondi.
[At this point, I’ll listen to what you have to say. What is it?]
Fenrir looked at Frondi with a very calm face and said:
Frontier smiled brightly.
“thank you·”
