The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 281
◈ Episode 281 Fair and Fair (2)
Kim Joo-hyuk, who cut the seal using the ice sword, immediately looked at the wide, endless sea.
Really clean sea… no.
“Did you say it was a lake?”
The lake.
Kim Joo-hyuk recalled the preliminary information he had received from his previous guide and looked around for a moment to see if anyone had missed the inside of the seal.
“Then I guess we can start right away without dragging anything…”
I muttered and looked at the lake.
Perhaps because it is inside a mountain peak, it is a very quiet lake, unlike other lakes.
Kim Joo-hyuk turned his gaze and looked at Zhong Li-quan.
“Did you say there is no particular group here?”
“That’s right. “Kurma is said to be an incarnation with no particular group.”
“It’s similar to Parashurama.”
Kim Joo-hyuk muttered in response to Zhong Li-quan’s words, looked at the wide lake, and immediately expressed his doubts.
“however. “Where is he?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Zhong Liquan responded to that.
“Maybe Kurma would be like that.”
“?”
Kim Joo-hyuk turned his gaze to follow Zong Liquan’s words and was soon able to confirm that there was a small island where he was looking.
Unlike other islands, this island is green.
“You mean it’s over there?”
“It’s not that, it’s just me.”
“…That itself?”
Zhong Li-quan ended the story by nodding his head instead of answering, and Kim Joo-hyuk spoke while looking at the island with a blank expression.
“…Isn’t that an island?”
“no.”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, Baekho, who was behind him, opened his mouth this time.
He looked at the island floating in the middle of the lake with a feeling of hmmm, and then spoke.
“If you look at it that way, it certainly looks like an island, but it’s not an island.”
“then?”
“…Probably the back.”
“etc?”
“If you’re curious about what that guy looks like, go inside the lake and come out.”
Baekho’s words.
“Hmm…”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been quietly looking at the island, quickly jumped into the water as if he was curious.
with a plop-!
What Kim Joo-hyuk could see as soon as he entered the water.
“!”
It was a huge green wall that almost filled the lake.
No, it’s not a green wall.
‘This is…’
The shell.
What Kim Joo-hyuk could see in the lake was not a green wall, but the shell of a huge turtle.
Sigh!
Kim Joo-hyuk jumped out of the water as soon as he checked the shell.
“Have you checked?”
When I looked at Kim Joo-hyuk and asked, Kim Joo-hyuk smiled and nodded and spoke.
“Why is that bastard not sealed in a weapon or something, but in a huge shell?”
“Kurma’s shell is probably his only weapon. Moreover, that shell allows Kurma’s ability, immortality.”
“…Then Kurma’s true identity is a giant turtle?”
“That’s right. “In terms of size alone, it’s probably bigger than Hyeonmu, one of the Four Gods of Death.”
At Jong Li-kwon’s words, Kim Joo-hyuk opened his mouth with a puzzled expression.
“With its ridiculous size and immortality, it’s just a strategic weapon.”
Kim Joo-hyuk muttered that as it was so large that it could easily destroy a city with its overwhelming mass just by crawling without using any special abilities.
“Master, should I put it over there?”
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as he heard the damn voice that soon followed.
and.
Soon, with Kim Joo-hyuk nodding, the group went straight to Kurma’s shell and immediately placed a huge wooden box in the middle of the shell and began preparing for battle.
“Huh…”
Kim Joo-hyuk placed the lotus flower of reincarnation on the huge wooden box with a nervous expression.
Sssssssssssssssssssssssss-!
I started to infuse my magic power.
thud!
At that moment, the magical power that exploded around Kim Joo-hyuk began to be sucked into the lotus of reincarnation.
Kim Joo-hyuk is embarrassed along with him.
‘No, you’re going to suck it in like this?’
As he began to infuse magical power into the lotus flower, at some point Kim Joo-hyuk made an absurd expression as he saw the lotus flower of reincarnation absorbing magical energy like a sponge absorbing water, even without Kim Joo-hyuk controlling his magical power.
Wooooow-!
Soon, when Kim Joo-hyuk lost more than half of his magical power, the Lotus of Reincarnation began to slowly stop sucking Kim Joo-hyuk’s magical power.
Hahahaha!
It soon began to bloom brilliantly.
At the same time, a geometric formation begins to be created on the lotus flower.
As soon as the formation was created, geometric formations that had been engraved in advance by the guide began to be created around the wooden box.
Soon, the numerous formations thus created began to glow blue in an instant and began to emit strange driving sounds.
And-
Paaaaaaa!
At the same time, the lotus flower of reincarnation began to shine white.
The lake began to tremble.
####
Kurma.
He is the second of the ten incarnations created by God.
He was an incarnation who became immortal by eating Amrita, which is said to enable anyone whom God orders to protect to gain immortality and eternal life.
And now he was smiling.
Of course, when he was first sealed by Kalki, he was unable to control his endless anger.
However, it has already been sealed for hundreds of years.
The reason Kurma was able to smile in this place where he couldn’t even get a sense of the time was because he felt the seal getting weaker.
Moreover, Kurma was smiling at the thought that his seal would soon be naturally released.
‘at las! at las!!!’
He really wanted to go outside.
The moment he goes out, he becomes stronger than anyone else.
Of course, he did not have a group like other incarnations, nor did he have powerful weapons or unique strengths like others.
However, Kurma thought that the immortality of his body was good enough to overshadow all the strengths of other incarnations.
No matter how strong the other incarnations were, they couldn’t kill him.
That’s why he was looking forward to going out.
He looks forward to the day when he kills Kalki and stands above other incarnations.
however.
“huh?”
Kurma, who was looking forward to the day when he would go out, was able to see that his seal was being broken even though the seal had not yet been broken.
The seal is broken.
That means you can go out on your own.
But Kurma had doubts.
‘It is true that the seal is weakening.’
However, there was still time left for the seal to be completely broken, so Kurma was wondering why the seal was being broken.
“!”
Before he could even think about it, the seal was completely broken, and before Kurma could even think about it, he was forced out of the seal.
And at the same time he escaped from the seal.
‘This magic power…!’
I looked in front of me, feeling a magic that I could never forget in his memory.
“Good.”
He could see a man smiling in front of him.
A man looking at himself with a sneer.
However, Kurma was able to infer who the being in front of him was without difficulty.
No, it was strange that I couldn’t infer it.
In the first place, the magic power flowing out of the body of the man who was laughing at him in front of Kurma belonged to a man he could not possibly forget.
“Kalki…!”
When Kurma glared at the man and called his name, he smiled and spoke.
“Seeing as you know the name, the operation was a success.”
Listening to the words of the man who seemed to be Kalki’s reincarnation, Kurma understood the current situation with just those words.
I suddenly escaped from the seal.
The reincarnation of Kalki stands before him.
The people around him seemed to be Kalki’s colleagues.
‘Shinsu and fresh… and even unidentified guys.’
Kurma checked up to that point and immediately figured out how this series of situations was going.
Sigh.
I smiled.
“I see, you broke my seal.”
“I know.”
Kim Joo-hyuk answers Kurma, who speaks with a confident expression.
Kurma still spoke with a smile on his face.
“It looks like they came to kill me by breaking the seal on me… Have you been reincarnated and your memories haven’t returned yet?”
“Well, my memories haven’t all come back yet.”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, Kurma spoke with a confident smile as if he knew that would happen.
“I am immortal. You can’t kill me! In short, you have released the seal of an unkillable being!”
“?”
“Hehehe! Too bad Kalki! I can’t believe I made such a stupid mistake because my memories didn’t come back! “Thanks to your ignorance, I was able to be released from the seal faster than the other incarnations!”
Kurma looks at Kim Joo-hyuk’s bewildered expression and speaks with great excitement.
Kim Joo-hyuk seemed to think for a moment and said,
“Ah.”
He smiled and spoke as if he soon realized it.
“Hey, aren’t you the one who doesn’t understand the situation right now?”
“…what?”
In response to Kurma’s rebuttal, Kim Joo-hyuk did not erase his smile and nodded.
“Your body.”
“My body? “What happened to my body…?”
Only then did Kurma realize that his body was strange.
“What is this?”
Kurma looked at his hands and feet.
What you see are skinny arms and legs that are different from your own body.
His stomach was even worse than anyone could see, and the joints on his fingers were skinny, as if they had been painted on to his bones.
Like a dwarf.
“!”
As the thought occurred to him, Kurma instinctively began to touch his face with his skinny hands, and soon he realized that this body was not his, but that of a dwarf.
“what…!!!”
Kurma then began to feel strange things one by one that he had not noticed since he had been in the seal for a long time.
His body, as large and strong as a mountain, could always look down on other humans.
But now he was looking up at the humans.
That’s not all.
Not only was his magical power not as good as before, but he could no longer feel the overwhelming vitality and immortal power that he had gained by eating Amrita.
It was only then that Kurma realized what situation he was in.
‘My body’
has changed.
As that simple fact came to Kurma’s mind, he felt his mind becoming dizzy without even realizing it.
The next moment.
“Looking at your expression, it looks like you’ve figured out the situation now.”
Kurma widened his eyes as he looked at Kalki… or Kim Joo-hyuk, who was smiling evilly in front of him.
“Well, I think I’ve finished assessing the situation.”
The next moment, Kurma sees Kim Joo-hyuk and his companions preparing for battle all at once towards him.
“Let’s not get into trouble and let’s go cleanly.”
I felt the fear of death.
