Children of the Holy Emperor Chapter 163

§ 163. Storm (4)

[I’ll show you something interesting.]

Along with Seonghwang’s words that seemed somewhat joyful, something shining white appeared in front of Seongjin’s eyes.

At first, Seongjin thought it was a fish the size of his forearm, because a sleek, streamlined, shiny figure followed him, lashing its tail.

[This is called burning.]

[Flame burns?]

[When an idea becomes concrete, it reaches reality like this. It’s also something you can’t easily see except in places like this. Maybe it’s a good opportunity.]

The fish-like thing seemed to move completely according to the will of the Holy Emperor. If you see it swimming to the left and right of Seongjin and coming close to it for easy observation.

uh? But what does that shape look like?

[Do you understand what it is?]

And another fish appears at Seongjin’s feet. Three, four in a row… … .

A total of five fish were swimming around, chasing them, surrounded by white light.

Around that time, Seongjin realized the identity of this fish.

‘… ‘Silverthorn?’

It was hard to see right away as it was surrounded by bright light, but these things waving like tails were clearly Moang’s guards and hilts!

However, when I turned my head and looked, I saw that the original silver thorn was properly tied to the king’s waist.

[It definitely looks the same as Silver Thorn, right? but… … !]

Then, a slight vibration came from Seonghwang. It almost seemed like he was laughing a little.

‘This is a bad idea!’

Seongjin realized two things.

One is that the image of an object familiar to Seonghwang is reflected in the [flame image] that swims there and follows him. He was imagining the auror blades forming and glowing around the silver spikes.

And another one.

‘It really looks like a school of salmon swimming against a strong river… … .’

So, in this gentleman’s mind, silver thorn was already a salmon.

I was so dumbfounded that I was just staring blankly at the swords fluttering around, and then Seonghwang opened his mouth again.

[okay. Now that you know what this is, let’s see what its utility is.]

As soon as those words ended.

Five salmon… No, the silver thorns all turned their heads and shot towards the monsters at incredible speed!

Squirt!

They flew through all the spaces they encountered. When passing through the office, it becomes a ray of light, a white thunderbolt under a sky with heavy rain, and a comet with a long tail in the dark universe.

Twinkle.

The silver thorns, which ran quickly from space to space, finally hit the bodies of the monsters, which were scared and running away, and exploded.

Quang! Pow! Pow!

The entire world shakes and causes strong vibrations. The monsters that had been hit hard stumbled around, making strange noises that could not be described as screams or frustration.

Wow!

‘uh… … .’

The things that have been happening here and there since a while ago were all the work of this guy!

While the monsters were faltering, Seonghwang, who had widened his distance from them, asked.

[Do you understand the series of processes by which a flame is created, moves, and finally operates?]

[Um, roughly?]

Seongjin seemed to vaguely know the gist of that technique. It was something closer to the realm of intuition rather than reason.

[Then would you like to try it?]

Hmm, a flying sword… … .

Seongjin tried to image a nutcracker in his mind. A blade made of hard steel, and the sight of it flying in a straight line like a missile.

Then, in an instant, a vague gray stick-like thing flickers before disappearing.

hmm? Maybe it’s simpler than you think?

‘good. ‘Let’s go with this feeling!’

Seongjin tried to concentrate as much as possible. Soon the monsters caught up with them again, but they didn’t pay any attention.

Wouldn’t this guy be able to avoid anything?

Whirling.

After barely closing the distance, the bundle of tentacles quickly shot out dozens of legs.

From a distance, it looked soft and soft, like a sea anemone tentacle submerged in seawater, but as it flew closer, the thickness and strength of each strand reminded me of a huge log.

It was a terrifying attack that tore through all the space it touched, but Seonghwang easily moved his body and avoided the many legs.

Wow!

At that time, the black beast that was running here and there, looking for an opportunity, took advantage of the gap and thrust its sharp teeth.

Its fangs, dripping with black magical energy, were almost as tall as Seongjin, and it was clear that the moment his body was caught by them, he would be torn apart without shape.

Then, Seonghwang leapt through space with Seongjin hanging on him. Suddenly, a black sky with heavy rain spreads around them.

Sigh!

The beast’s snout chased them and locked their jaws together, but they effortlessly avoided the fangs and were already flying under the quiet starry sky.

After that, narrow distances continued to be avoided, but this whole process was just a simple practice for Seonghwang. He is silently waiting for Seongjin to realize something.

[It doesn’t necessarily have to be a weapon. Just try to think of what you are most familiar with.]

As the phenomenon of the blurry stick appearing and disappearing repeated meaninglessly, Seonghwang gave him a hint.

Hmm, that sounds familiar… … .

Seongjin hung on to his feet and rested his chin thoughtfully.

[Wow! That’s really annoying!]

The seedling, with some of its lower tentacles blown off, was struggling and irritated. The body, which had poor mobility compared to the beast-shaped greed, suffered quite a severe blow from being struck by four of the five swords alone.

[The King of Delcross is, as expected, a formidable man.]

Despite convincing themselves that they had not let down their guard, Greed had to admit that their preparations were inadequate.

Seonghwang, who has been bound by the [agreement] for the past several years, has been unable to properly perform even the simple act of ‘directly cutting’ due to lack of causality. So, they thought that the incarnation of the Flame Body rather than the original body would be enough to deal with the Holy Emperor.

However, the king of Delcross was quite adept at expedients. Instead of doing something directly, he hit them indirectly and efficiently by throwing flames at them.

The flame itself was in the form of a small sword that was not very lethal, but it followed them as if it had a will, causing large and small explosions. Of course, it was only minor damage compared to the power of the Avatar they brought with them.

However, no matter how insignificant the attack, it would be a different story if you kept getting hit without even getting a single hit.

If the night goes on like this, it becomes obvious who will ultimately be the winner.

[Besides, it somehow bothers me… … .]

Greed frowned as he looked at the boy who was being held and swaying by the Holy Emperor.

The boy closed his eyes and was muttering something. He seemed truly carefree in this situation.

But strangely enough, something unusual comes from that boy.

[What on earth is that doing?]

Pa Jong muttered absentmindedly as he gathered up the recovered tentacles. He also felt something ominous.

He shouted as he powerfully kicked into one of the dimensions mixed with greed.

[The author is a prepared person! It’s not strange no matter what happens. Be careful!]

At that moment, I screamed. A small spark appeared in front of the boy.

fry. Something easy to remember.

However, if it hits the enemy, it will become the most lethal.

Soon Seongjin opened his eyes, and there was a small dark red flame fluttering in front of him. It looks just like a small piece of the devil’s soul, or maybe even the flame of Gehenna.

As I was looking at the burning flame, which was becoming more and more vivid, Seonghwang glanced at it and nodded.

[Yes, it looks okay.]

[haha!]

Seongjin smiled proudly. It was the first clear flame image he created.

I am satisfied. From now on, I will call this Demon King No. 2!

[Then what should we do with it now?]

[Throw it at the enemy!]

[okay.]

good! Fly, Demon King No. 2!

Seongjin energetically commanded the flame.

However, perhaps because the image was so different from the missile I first imagined, Seongjin’s Demon King 2 did not fly as splendidly as Seonghwang’s salmon.

The spark, which fell loosely like a misplaced ball, fortunately crashed into the fluttering head of a tentacle that was approaching.

Not only was it too small, but it wasn’t a threatening sword attack to begin with, so it was clear that he had let his guard down.

But the results were unexpected.

The moment that small flame touches.

Grumble!

Suddenly, a strong dark red flame bursts out from there, quickly spreading towards its upper tentacles and engulfing it.

As if it were the flame of Gehenna itself, devouring everything in an instant.

[Wow! what’s this!]

The sea anemone, embarrassed by the flames that could not be extinguished easily, stopped in place and started headbanging!

[It’s pathetic. What are you doing if you don’t turn it off quickly!]

When I asked, bewildered by his excessive greed, Pajong shouted in an aggrieved voice.

[no! This is something strange! It won’t turn off! What on earth is this?]

He was so engulfed in flames that he struggled.

The sight of huge bundles of tentacles burning up and scattering bright sparks is truly a sight to behold.

As I was happily appreciating the spectacular fireworks show, Seonghwang suddenly blurted out words of praise.

[Good job.]

[Ahahaha!]

Doesn’t your father think so too?

While Seongjin was smiling proudly, Seonghwang glanced around and said.

[Now let’s go back quickly. It took longer than expected. I will deal with the remaining ones at once.]

[All at once?]

What else does this guy want to show us this time?

When Seongjin’s eyes sparkled with anticipation, Seonghwang nodded.

[okay. Thanks to you, cause and effect are enough.]

And the moment those words end.

‘… … !’

Seongjin opened his eyes wide and stopped breathing. Before they knew it, hundreds, if not thousands, of fish appeared around them and began swimming around them all at once.

Seongjin opened his mouth blankly at the majestic and beautiful sight.

The sight of dazzling white salmon moving in parallel and uninterrupted motion made it seem as if they had become one gigantic creature in themselves.

Or maybe they themselves were waves shining in silver light, and they were swimming in the sea of ​​light.

And after a while.

[good.]

With a short command, the peaceful scene ended.

Squirt!

Like hundreds of cruise missiles fired at the same time, the silver swords turned and rushed towards the monsters.

It was truly an amazing sight to see those white rays of light traversing and jumping through space, drawing hundreds of orbits, as if each had its own will.

And they hit the black dog and sea anemone with every single one of them, emitting a dazzling white light.

‘… … !’

Seongjin closed his eyes tightly and prepared for the shock that would follow. But strangely enough, she didn’t feel the shock she expected. A son-in-law who is quiet without any explosions.

When I slowly opened my eyes, they were standing on a mountainside with rain pouring down.

Seonghwang, who fired hundreds of missiles at them, escaped to another space where they were fragmented before they exploded.

Is this okay? Even if I don’t check until the end what happened to those guys?

[The result confirmed at the moment of hitting does not change. By now they would not have even left a trace. Now you can get out of here.]

Seonghwang looked at Seongjin’s dumbfounded face and said that. Then, she places Seongjin on the floor and raises the corner of her mouth.

[Come to think of it, I said I would look after your sword someday.]

After the Heresy Tribunal ended up like that, the Holy Emperor told him to bring a sword during the audience.

The problem is that after that, Seonghwang and Seongjin became busy at the same time with the preparations for the birthday party and the monster task force, so there were hardly any opportunities.

The Holy Emperor pulled out the silver thorn from his belt and slowly aimed it at the front as he spoke.

[This will also be a good opportunity. Keep this route in your head now.]

The salmon in his hand… No, the silver thorn blade was enveloped in light, and a beam of light began to extend forward from there.

[The sword must always be the simplest. However, it is not the same path for everyone.]

The white shining Auror blade extended to the length of a nutcracker. However, strangely, Seongjin felt that the sword was so long that the tip could not be seen.

That would not be unreasonable.

If this sword is aimed at the end of the world in the space that reaches there the moment you think about it, it has already reached that border.

[You will eventually reach here on your own. So it wouldn’t be that bad to experience it at least once in advance.]

and.

Without any warning.

Without even the sound of something breaking.

The world in front of my eyes split apart in an instant.
