Episode 121
I reflexively grabbed the hilt of the Seven Deadly Sins Sword at my waist.
[…] … .]
Somehow, I had the feeling that the oblivious Musin was also eavesdropping on this conversation.
“What does it mean that you can become God right now?”
I had many questions, but I asked what I was most curious about first.
“That’s literally it. The karma I have built is quite a bit, and I have also figured out the location of the Pantheon of Gods. Since all other conditions have been met, you can become a god right away if you put your mind to it.”
“… … .”
“But I won’t. Even if I become a god now, the divine status I will obtain will be at the level of a miscellaneous god. “There is only one Goddess who can kill all demon lords, the God of War.”
Sanghyeolgong’s indifferent eyes turned to me.
“Luan, if you want to kill the Demon King, you too will have to aim for the throne of nothingness.”
This is probably true.
but… … .
“Are you unwilling?”
As if reading my expression, Sanghyeolgong said.
I hesitated and then nodded.
“because?”
“It is difficult to explain the clear reason, but… … . Somehow, that doesn’t seem like the path for me. “It feels like it’s going against the martial arts skills I’ve accumulated so far.”
“… … .”
“Matriarch, is it really impossible for humans to win against gods? “Please think about it one more time.”
I asked in a serious voice.
“What must a human being have to do to overcome God while remaining human?”
“… … .”
Sanghyeolgong responded seriously to my insistence.
He seemed to be deep in thought as he rubbed his chin, and then he opened his mouth.
“To do that… “There must be multiple opportunities.”
“You said it was an opportunity.”
“You have extra lives, you can try again and again. or… “It is the most absurd assumption, but it is possible to turn back time.”
The moment I heard those words, I felt a chill running down my spine.
“For humans to deal with God, they must have that level of irrationality. Of course, even so, it will be a thorny path. This is literally the minimum condition… … .”
Sanghyeolgong looked at me and asked.
“Why do you look like that?”
“… no.”
The back of my head feels tingly.
Like being hit hard by someone.
And for some reason, I felt like it was my teacher Baek No-kwang who hit me in the back.
Once again, I thought that resting for three days was the right choice.
If I hadn’t had that break, I would have let out a heavy sigh right here.
‘Why is God’s protection so good?’
Reverse heaven.
The act of defying time.
It must be the power that everyone craves… … .
According to Sanghyeolgong’s words, this seems to be the minimum requirement when the opponent is the Demon Lord.
And having actually faced the devil, my thoughts are the same.
‘… good. ‘I like it.’
I didn’t think it would be easy in the first place.
Because it is a task given by none other than Master.
Let’s become stronger until we defeat the devil or whatever.
“If you want to ask anything else, please tell me everything here. “I will listen to you as much as I can.”
‘In this place… la.’
In that case, it may mean that you have to decide on the reward you can receive for your achievements this time.
I also have no intention of worrying about subjugating priests forever.
I nodded and thought for a moment.
The first thing that came to mind was… … .
“Are there any divine beasts working in your hometown?”
I also talked to Musin.
It is a way to develop tolerance for musical instruments.
“Of course there is.”
“Could you possibly arrange a contract? “I need a means to counter the instrument.”
“It’s not difficult.”
Sanghyeolgong nodded calmly and continued speaking.
“Badniker has a total of five divine beasts. Green deer, white mouse, gray sheep, black snake and blue dog. “Which of these do you want?”
“hmm… … .”
There’s something about the deer, mouse, and sheep that doesn’t appeal to me.
If I had to choose, it would be a snake or a dog… … .
I answered without thinking for long.
“A snake.”
Sanghyeolgong said with a slightly subtle look on his face.

“Can I ask why?”
“The deer, mouse, and sheep look so weak. “My dog doesn’t like the color blue.”
Rather than saying that I particularly liked snakes, I decided to use a simple method of elimination.
Then Sanghyeolgong laughed and said something unexpected.
“It looks like you haven’t met the librarian yet.”
“yes? ah… yes. “I had to go to the retreat right away, so the time was unclear.”
I said, scratching my head.
“But is there really such a thing as an underground library? “There were no stairs leading to the basement in the main building.”
“Of course there is. “It’s just not a place accessed by stairs.”
“… … .”
“Since you chose the snake, you will meet it soon.”
Meaningful words.
I suddenly became curious and asked.
“Has the head of the family also made a contract with the divine beast?”
“Yes.”
“May I ask which divine beast you signed a contract with?”
“Deer, mice, sheep, and dogs.”
“… hmm. “That means.”
“okay. “I made a contract with all the divine beasts except the snake.”
Sanghyeolgong said with a strange expression.
“And since the Black Fairy Kusset, there has not been a single person in Badniker’s bloodline who has made a pact with the Black Snake.”
“… … .”
After saying it like that, I started to feel like I wanted to change my mind.
It was difficult to formulate words because the Sanghyeolgong was looking at me with somewhat expectant eyes.
“… “I’m really looking forward to it.”
“Anything else you’re curious about?”
Today, Sanghyeolgong seemed to be in a better mood than usual, and he seemed to have plenty of time.
I decided to ask everything I wanted to ask at this point.
“What happened to the Demon Lord’s Expedition? “I wonder if any progress has been made.”
I am referring to the colorless demon lord I spoke of the last time we met – that is, the great-type subjugation team.
Sanghyeolgong shook his head and said.
“In that case, it has been extended indefinitely.”
“… yes?”
“I told you before. The Demon King’s whereabouts are not constant. “The colorless devil has moved his residence again.”
Moved residence?
Is this because I met him in hell?
“Fortunately, we were able to track it… … .”
Sanghyeolgong spoke with a rare pause in his words.
“… The first scouting party that entered the area, 50 elite members, went missing. Considering the location, it would be more accurate to assume that he is dead.”
“Where is that place?”
“It is the worst demon realm on the continent.”
“Are you talking about imperially prohibited territory?”
The Jewel Mountains I have passed through.
Or it refers to a swampy area.
But Sanghyeolgong shook his head.
“It is a place dozens of times more dangerous than that.”
‘A place dozens of times more dangerous than the forbidden one?’
Is there such a place on this continent?
“So, I’m sorry, but forget about my previous suggestion. “I don’t think I have the strength to protect you there either.”
“I don’t know where exactly-.”
“I can’t tell you. “They should have already given you a clue.”
The clue seems to be the title [The Worst Magic Scene on the Continent].
“You should find out the information there yourself. If you can’t even do that, it’s a place you can’t even set foot in… … .”
“… … .”
“However, I can give you some advice.”
“Advice?”
“There is someone at the Imperial Academy who knows about the demonic realm.”
“Who are you?”
“It would be meaningless to even say that.”
I tried to eat it raw and failed.
After all, he is not an easy person.
“If we can contact him, we can hear a lot of information. “After that, whether you still aim for the Demon Lord depends on your will.”
It is quite meaningful information, but there is a problem.
“… “Isn’t the Imperial Academy Kartell a place where outsiders cannot enter?”
“yes.”
“At my age, it’s already too late to enroll.”
To begin with, I don’t have time to go to the academy now.
I asked with a coy look.
“Perhaps with Badniker’s power, he can ignore imperial laws to some extent.”
“impossible.”
“yes.”
Then Sanghyeolgong said something somewhat unexpected.
“How did the retreat go?”
“Final third place.”
I removed the phrase “probably” for now.
“Then you will find a way.”
“… … ? I understand for now.”
“What else can you say?”
Judging by the tone of voice, it seems like this is the final question and answer.
I slowly opened my mouth in the most cautious manner I had ever seen.
“Badniker knew that a priest had infiltrated this retreat, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then it would mean that they left it alone without stopping it in advance. “To kill the priest.”
“okay.”
Sanghyeolgong nodded calmly without any excuses or excuses.
– Delac was against this.
If I hadn’t had a conversation with Assad before returning, I might have mistakenly thought that it was the ironclad who planned this.
“… “There must be someone who pushed such an opinion, but is it possible that they cannot be punished?”
– Baby, you don’t know anything about badniks. About the true power and secrets this family holds.
Assad said, a person that even the head of the family, Iron Blood Prince, could not help.
But even now, I still sometimes see the faces of those who died.
“It won’t be easy.”
I thought so.
Actually, I said this half out of anger.
“But if you wish to punish him… “It will happen.”
I looked at Sanghyeolgong with somewhat surprised eyes.
And after hesitating for a moment, he spoke.
“please.”
“hmm.”
The Iron Blood Lord only nodded slightly, but that was enough.
Because I know better than anyone else that he is a man who doesn’t talk nonsense.
“The story went longer than I thought. It looks like he plans to stay quiet for a while, so I won’t hold a separate appointment ceremony for Sogaju. However, all of the rights mentioned above will be guaranteed, and more than half of the humans in Badniker will obey the four of you.”
You could say it’s only half, but since the family is so big, it’s a powerful force.
Perhaps the people who cannot be handled as desired are either high-ranking people who cannot be handled as small family heads, or factions that support other brothers and sisters.
“The training completion ceremony will be held soon. “Please go on time.”
“yes. thank you.”
“I’ll call you again.”
“yes?”
“The gift will arrive soon.”
Do you still have more to give?
When I looked at his bewildered face, the Iron Blood Lord smiled softly and uncharacteristically.
“It’s something you deserve, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
“yes… … .”
In any case, the Iron Blood Lord’s eyes turned to Ainsburn again, so he closed his mouth.
And since I had no interest in watching others being tortured, I left the cabin.
“Whoa… … .”
When we left the bloody cabin.
Dusk was falling in the sky.
‘I’ve been talking about this for a long time… … .’
Jane was nowhere to be seen.
Did he go back first?
It was rude as a user, but it was natural considering his status as a collector.
This is probably the busiest group in Badniker.
Gurgling… … .
“Wow. hungry.”
I haven’t eaten anything since morning and my stomach is sticking to my back.
Let’s go back to my hometown and eat something.
Or should I give you something delicious at the graduation ceremony?
As I walked, I glanced down at the Seven Deadly Sins Sword.
“… … .”
The Forgotten God’s Altar, the God of War, and the Seven Deadly Sins Sword.
I was about to ask Sanghyeolgong about this.
For some reason, it seemed premature to ask right now.
‘At least after achieving the level of the second line.’
I headed home with various thoughts in mind.
After crossing the sparsely populated and gloomy garden, passing through the fence, I finally returned to my family’s manor.
Where will the graduation ceremony be held?
If you catch anyone walking down the street, they will be able to hear it.
When I look around… I found the back of my head somewhere familiar.
‘That guy… … .’
Rarely white – not silver hair.
During the retreat, most of the time, my hair was tied up in one piece, but now my hair is loose and flowing.
I shouted with joy.
“White doong!”
“… Heeik!?”
Then, Seren was overly startled and looked back at me with wide eyes.
“Uh, uh… … .”
I think you’re more surprised than I thought?
‘ah.’
Come to think of it, this guy didn’t know I was alive?
Looking at it, it looks like I haven’t heard anything from Charon or Hector.
‘How should I explain this… … .’
I’m thinking about it, but Seren’s attitude is a bit strange.
“Uh, um, so… … .”
Seren, who was in a hurry, raised the hem of her skirt slightly and nodded.
It’s an aristocratic greeting that doesn’t suit you.
“… Oh, hello… … ? therefore… Prince Luan… … ?”
“… … .”
“Oh, or your ex-fiance?”
No matter who the person is, the once raised eyes become droopy, and the voice, which was always sharp, subsides.
“… … .”
I narrowed my eyes as I looked at the girl whose appearance was clearly Seren.
Who is this guy?
