◈ Episode 553 Dream Compatibility (3)
Nirva did not understand the current situation.
‘I was nervous?’
It was the first time in my life that I felt this way.
Although I have encountered countless strong players so far, I have never felt overwhelmed by the other person.
Fortunately, there was Ludger Chelisi, but I never felt afraid of him.
If I had to compare it, it was closer to the feeling of a human encountering a tiger in the mountains.
This is not a situation where you can fight with your bare hands, but with weapons.
But this guy was different.
The feeling of hundreds of c*ckroaches crawling all over your body at once.
It was as if I had encountered something indescribable that had all kinds of bugs mixed together and rolled into one.
When I saw humans, I called them bugs and hated them, but this was something else that went beyond disgust.
It had to be that way.
Nirva, the apostle of dreams, presides over the dreams that people dream.
The imagination and energy it has. It was all focused on a general dream.
But the entity that has now caught sight of us in the darkness is the opposite.
It was essentially like a dream, but much darker and mustier.
okay.
That is a ‘nightmare’.
‘It’s not just a nightmare either. It’s a nightmare that is a mixture of countless resentments, hatred, and wildness that I have never seen before.’
Sedina and Julia also noticed that there was something strange about Nirva’s reaction.
“Well, what is it? Why did the attacks suddenly stop? Rather… … “Hasn’t it gotten colder?”
“that… … .”
Sedina’s eyes turned to the pitch-black darkness.
A large passage that was blown open due to Nirva’s inability to control his strength.
The enormous malice and coldness writhing beyond it were similar to what I had experienced before.
‘This is the same as when I ran away from Sky Island with Senior Seridan. No, it’s much more than that now… … .’
Even then, Sedina was chased by a huge beast.
Considering the identity of that beast, what is beyond that space right now is unbelievable… … .
“senior?”
No sooner had Sedina finished speaking.
Flash!
A huge red eye light emerged from the pitch black darkness.
Sedina and Julia realized at that moment.
Beyond the open space, it was dark because no light reached, so it wasn’t that nothing was visible.
What I thought was darkness was the pitch-black fur of something.
And then something stared at Nirva, its eyes twinkling.
Quaaaang!
A huge hole drilled by Nirva.
It was almost at the same time that a much larger black torrent came out and engulfed Nirva.
Quack!
The flowing black torrent did not just blow away Nirva, but pinned him to the wall.
The black torrent that seemed to flow endlessly stopped.
Slurp.
Julia’s voice trembled as she saw the black fur slowly being recovered.
“Is that really a hand?”
It was only with a wave of the hand that the monster-like Nirva was blown all the way to the beyond?
Julia trembled like an aspen.
I realized how absurd something was beyond the wall.
However, Sedina, who had more experience than this, did not freeze like Julia.
“Julia! Let’s run away during this gap!”
She supported Julia with her small body and tried to get as far away from the open passage as possible.
“If you don’t run away now, you’ll get swept away!”
No sooner had Sedina’s warning ended.
Kwaaaaaaa!!!
The wall itself, which was a combination of stairs, doors, and railings, was completely destroyed.
Collapsing rubble and clouds of sand dust.
Amid the falling debris, the silhouette of a huge beast glowed red.
Julia, who was running with Sedina, looked back and took a deep breath.
The being that appeared was a monster that far exceeded her common sense.
Cooung.
As the monster took a step, the floor shook and vibrated.
“Well, that can’t be right…” … The monster of Gévaudan?”
The day when the blood-red full moon rose.
A cryptid that will go down in history as a disaster for a nation.
Oooooooohhh───!!!
The nightmare of all living things roared at the apostle of dreams.
“dare!”

A huge sand sword made of sand flew out and pierced Jevaudang’s monster’s solar plexus.
No, it looked like it was pierced.
Kaduk. Lots of cards.
Something was moving slowly in the abdomen of Jebodang’s monster, which stood tall on two legs as if it was fine.
They were the heads of beasts.
The sand sword was being eaten from the tip by the heads of countless beasts.
“An animal without reason or wisdom! “Raise your fangs at me in my own home!”
Quang!
Nirva exploded the debris covering his body and rushed towards the monster of Gévaudan.
The gaze of the monster of Gévaudan did not leave Nirva.
Just as Nirva instinctively recognized the monster of Gévaudan as her natural enemy.
The monster of Gévaudan also recognized with the intuition of a beast that Nirva was its natural enemy.
Nirva rushed towards the monster of Gévaudan riding a wave of golden sand.
A golden light shimmered like a ghost in his eyes.
As Gévaudan’s monster violently shook off his arm, the air was torn apart and a strong wind blew.
“No way!”
The dream sand wave wasn’t an attack so shallow that it could easily be ignored.
Countless sands engulfed Jevaudang’s monster and ate up to his waist.
The sand sizzled and quickly entangled the whole body of Jevaudang’s monster.
“I’ll squeeze you to death like this!”
Nirva shouted with a sad tone in his voice.
The monster of Gévaudan looked at Nirva and raised his head.
Awww!!!
And the head on both of his shoulders and the head on his body howled.
When the strange waves contained in the crying sound penetrated the dream sand, something amazing happened.
“what?!”
The dream sand that was trying to devour Jevodang’s monster lost control and poured down on the floor.
Nirva could not understand the sight.
“Something like an animal dissipates the power?”
This power to manipulate dream sand was not just magic.
This was a very great power given to me by the goddess.
It would not be easily destroyed just by the howling of an animal or something.
Nirva bit her lip.
The original plan was to safely regain strength by preying on wandering people.
But the plan was disrupted by that black beast.
In order to deal with that guy, I would have to use up all the power I had absorbed so far.
“This guy, and that guy.”
Beyond frustration, anger soared.
The first person to interrupt him was Ludger Cellisi.
Because of this, Nirva had to expend a lot of energy and choose a different method from what he had initially planned.
What happens next?
When he was trying to recover his strength, time was delayed due to Zandman and Sedina’s interference.
Because of this, reinforcements arrived, and despite the humiliation, they touched the tribute that was supposed to be offered to the goddess.
He threw away all respect and was recovering the strength he had used up by eating the humans who had fallen into prison.
But this time, a beast similar to himself has appeared and is interfering with him.
Hindrance.
Hindrance.
Disturbance again!
A vein bristled on Nirva’s forehead.
“They all do nothing but disturb me!”
Nirva, who never lost her composure and smile no matter what happened and always maintained a sly attitude, was no more.
All that remained was a devil with a face distorted like a murderer.
“okay. Let’s see how far you can hinder me!”
Nirva created a storm by surrounding himself with dream sand.
Seeing that scene, the monster of Zevodang took another breath and let out a howl.
Nirva immediately summoned wind and created a vacuum in the air.
However, the howling emitted by Jevaudang’s monster was different from the sound simply transmitted through the air.
The sound was muffled by the vacuum wall, but the strange power within it destroyed Nirva’s dream sand storm.
Truly the worst match.
However, Nirva did not think that there was no possibility.
‘It’s not enough to completely destroy my power.’
If that were the case, the prosthetic right arm would have been swept away by that howling and disappeared.
Although there was some shaking, the strongly cohesive sand did not lose its control.
‘If strength versus strength isn’t enough, I guess I’ll have to change my approach.’
Nirva placed both hands on the floor.
The dream sands clumped together in various places and turned into chains, entangling the body of Jevaudang’s monster.
The chains of Gevodang were broken one by one as the monster struggled, but the chains were added faster than that.
The monster of Zevodang opened its mouth again.
Nirva waited for that moment.
“If you are an animal, act like an animal and cover your mouth.”
A huge binding sphere made of sand wrapped around the long snout of Zevaudan’s monster.
The monster’s mouth suddenly became blocked and it was unable to howl.
You have to defeat him at this timing.
Nirva’s plan had no choice but to be foiled by the sight of the monster of Zevodang immediately afterward.
square. square.
The sand chains that bound the monster of Gevaudan.
One by one, they came loose and fell down.
The countless beasts that made up the body of Jevaudang’s monster had gnawed at the chains.
The beast’s antics did not stop there.
Awww!
As one wolf’s head howled, the heads of the other wolves also cried in resonance.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
The cohesion of the dream sand weakened again due to the resonant harmony of the beasts that made up the entire body.
“You can emit those strange waves from your entire body?”
Of course, it is less powerful than the main body, but it was enough to turn most attacks back to nothing.
Nirva’s expression went beyond anger and became cold.
This is dangerous.
We won’t be defeated by that monster, but we also have no way to defeat that monster.
‘Besides, I don’t know if it’s just my mood.’
That Jebodang monster seemed to be smaller than before.
Should I say that the size has decreased?
Even his bloated body felt a little slimmer.
Nirva felt anxious rather than hopeful at that sight.
Usually, shrinking in size meant that the opponent was weakening.
‘But why does that monster feel as if its power has been compressed?’
I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was evolving in real time, transforming into something higher.
The more he tried to deny it, the more the delusion continued to clutter Nirva’s mind.
“… … okay. “I can’t waste my time fighting with you forever.”
Is there really a need to have a proper match?
Anyway, I’ve already thrown away my pride.
The monster of Gévaudan lowered its body and tried to rush towards Nirva.
At that moment, the floor sank and the body went down.
Cry!
Jevaudang’s monster kicked the ground with its two hind legs and jumped high.
He could see the ground he had stepped on a moment ago sinking down like a block.
“This is the prison I created. “We can’t change the big picture, but we can at least make these small changes.”
As Nirva gestured, the ground on which the Zevodan monster was landing sank again.
Gévaudan’s monster spun its body with the reflexes of an animal, stepped on the floor next to it, and bounced up again.
Agility unbefitting his enormous size.
Nirva’s expression hardened when he saw that.
“also. “It wasn’t an illusion.”
The monster of Jevodang was still shrinking in size in real time.
The head of the beast sprouting all over the body disappeared, and the living heads on both shoulders quietly closed their mouths, turning into shoulder pads.
And the arms that mixed those of animals and humans were gradually leaning towards humans.
Gradually, it allegorizes into something else.
I don’t know what’s at the end, but I know it’s definitely not good for them.
Jebodang’s monster rose in the air and displayed three-dimensional maneuvers by stepping on the wall.
Thanks to its smaller size, its movements became faster and more agile than before.
Zevaudan’s monster, which quickly approached Nirva, raised its arms.
But the arm did not swing at all.
Instinctively, he realized that the Nirva he was trying to catch was fake.
The head of Gévaudan’s monster lost its direction.
The sniffling nose followed the traces of the missing Nirva.
“You’re quick to notice.”
The real Nirva appeared from the ceiling with sand.
It was then that the dream sand that made up the false Nirva stabbed the eyes of the monster of Gévaudan.
Wow!
The reduction in the number of heads acted as a poison in this regard.
In that brief moment of panic as Zevodang’s monster lost sight, Nirva removed all the blocks on the floor around it.
The collapsing floor and the monster of Gévaudang falling together.
At that moment, Jebodang’s monster, whose eyes had recovered, flashed a strong red glow.
Faaah!
The large monster stepped on the falling block and jumped up with strength in its legs.
one by one.
The monster of Jebodang, soaring as if stepping on stepping stones in the air, swung its hand towards Nirva, who was floating in the air.
—But the black fur-covered hand did not touch Nirva.
There was only one fate for the monster whose final attack missed.
It was a fall into that endless darkness.
Oooooooo───!!!!
As if in a final struggle, a huge cry burst out from the darkness and echoed throughout the prison created by Nirva.
“Tsk. “It’s pointless to struggle.”
Nirva restored the gaping block in the floor.
The monster of Gévaudan will be thrown down there, in the deepest part of the prison.
Considering its vitality, it would be impossible to kill something like this.
But it doesn’t matter. He knew right away that he couldn’t kill him, all he had to do was buy time.
‘Is this my second defeat?’
Since I couldn’t see a proper fight from the front, I chose to run away.
If he had fought properly, he would have been defeated in his current state.
“If only my strength had been intact… … .”
Nirva, who muttered that, let out a self-deprecating laugh without even realizing it.
“If it were like this, if it was like that. “Have I been ruined to this extent?”
Nirva shook his head and shook off his idle thoughts, recalling the monster of Zevodang that had been making its final struggle a little while ago.
At the end, the movement of swinging the hand that could not be reached in this direction.
Anyone who sees it will see it as the instinctive struggle of an animal.
But Nirva saw.
The monster’s hand was reaching out in this direction, and something sharp made of pure white bone was about to jump out from its palm.
Thinking about it this way, it seemed like I was exaggerating a bit.
Its shape resembled a ‘sword’.
What if the fight with the monster in Zevodang had lasted longer?
What kind of form did this guy evolve into?
“… … okay. “No matter what, we chased away the beast, so we have to hunt down the humans who ran away again.”
Nirva followed the traces of Sedina and Julia, who had already disappeared.
There was a delay, but he wouldn’t have been able to escape far.
* * *
Aidan and his group entered a new space.
When they saw the empty space, they thought they had made a mistake and prepared to move on to the next space.
It certainly would have been so, had there not been a huge howl in the distance.
Wooooow.
The air vibrating and resounding subtly is the sound of something crying.
The sound was faint, coming from a very far away, but it was clearly the sound of a wolf.
Sheridan perked up his ears and turned his head in the direction from which the sound came.
“Hans?”
That time when everyone was confused and wondering what this meant.
Ludger’s little finger, who was quietly asleep, moved.
Wiggle.
