00857 Be Infected, Six. ————————————————– ———————-=
It was then.
“that.”
The moment Eldora was about to growl once more,
“Excalibur?”
A quiet voice passed between the two.
A captivating voice that will captivate the listener’s ears. The voice was so beautiful that even Eldora, who had shown a combative attitude, calmed down.
“Are you the owner of that sword?”
A woman who seems to have finally awakened from the void stares at the other person with interested eyes. In a split second, Eldora stopped walking without realizing it. It was only after she took a couple of steps back that she realized what she had done, and her surprised expression showed.
There is no sense of energy or pressure. Although it was unexpected, it felt like a child who had no idea about the world asked the question out of pure curiosity.
The person in front of you is not a person, but an unknown entity that makes you feel infinite anxiety. As El Dora, who had come to this conclusion, she felt confused by the woman’s attitude, which seemed more humane than she thought. Of course, she felt awkward, as did the Knights of the Round Table.
“… “Let’s sit down first.”
Melinus, who broke the silence, spoke rather solemnly. Before I knew it, all thirteen knights of the round table had gathered. Soon, several knights pulled chairs around, and a total of 15 people, including the woman, sat around a large desk.
While the woman showed even the slightest interest, the fourteen people, including Eldora, were all very nervous. So there was only silence on the table for a while.
In the end, all twelve pairs of eyes, excluding the woman, turned to Melinus and Ian. I thought those two people were best suited for this kind of work.
“I’m confused.”
At that time, the woman suddenly spoke. A look of embarrassment flashes through her here and there, as if she didn’t think she would speak up first. Ian, who seemed to have quickly come to his senses, opened her mouth.
“Are you confused?”
The woman smiled and continued speaking.
“I never thought that the being I saw as soon as I woke up was a human… .”
“… “Do you think he’s human?”
Ian’s eyes became sharp.
“for a moment.”
At that moment, someone raised a hand in a gruff voice. Melinus, who had stopped her story, suddenly took out a small blue bead from her bosom and placed it in front of her woman.
“Before we talk, I have a favor to ask.”
Several knights who recognized the bead, or more precisely the truth crystal, let out a small exclamation. At the same time, I secretly let out a breath as if I was relieved. It was a relief that I felt that someone had made some preparations in a difficult situation.
“I would like you to place your hand on that bead and let out a little of your energy. “If you don’t mind.”
The woman tilted her head, but with an amused expression on her face, she obediently placed her hand on the crystal of truth. After a while, her orb emitted bright light and created a bluish flame. Melina Nurse took one look at her Ian and nodded slightly.
“to… . “I don’t know how to say it, but first of all, we are human.”
“I know.”
The woman smiled softly and responded. Ian continued speaking, feeling even more awkward due to his extremely polite attitude.
“You said it earlier. Confusing. And I didn’t know he was human.”
“yes.”
“Could you tell me exactly what that means?”
“… … .”
The woman looked thoughtful for a moment and then quietly opened her mouth.
“There can be only one answer to that question. That’s literally it. I had been asleep for so long that I hoped to wake up someday. “But it meant that I didn’t know that the being who liberated me was a human being.”
“Why didn’t I know you were human?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Melinus responded immediately. At that moment, the smile disappeared from her womanly face and a slightly lowered voice came out.
“of course. Long ago, when a battle was lost and sealed, humans also participated in the process. On the other side of me, of course. “Because there were no humans among my followers.”
“Hmm. I have a few questions… . First of all, after hearing what you say, it sounds like you are saying, “I am not human.”
As Melinus continued speaking calmly, the woman slowly tilted her head. She even seemed puzzled for some reason.
“What are we most curious about right now?”
Melinus’ face also became more serious.
“Who are you before our eyes now and what kind of existence should you define?”
“That’s a little surprising. “What kind of answer do you want exactly?”
“It’s simple. If not a human, then a god… .”
“yes.”
The woman nodded, interrupting Melinus.
“that’s right.”
And the moment I agreed once more, all the knights of the round table looked dumbfounded. I agreed so, so simply. Some people could not believe their ears and even felt an unrealistic feeling. However, the woman clearly responded to the word God and clearly affirmed it.
More than anything.
The light of the Truth Crystal continues to glow bluish. Even a little while ago.
It was that moment.
Uddangtangtang!
A loud sound suddenly rang through the main library. Where my eyes naturally focused, I saw Ian lying in a circle, collapsed on his chair. A look of disbelief is clearly evident in the two eyes that look as if they are about to be torn apart. Ian straightened his upper body, barely able to place his trembling hands on the floor.
“W-that’s ridiculous… . This, this… .”
“Ian, calm down.”
The woman looked at Ian with curiosity as he barely stood up with Melinus’ support. Then he gently brushed her hair and opened her mouth.
“Is it so surprising that God exists?”
“no… . “That’s not it.”
Ian barely shook his head in denial and glared at the woman with a very nervous face.
“Because I think I know who you are, or rather what kind of god you are. “This is why I was surprised.”
A strange look passed through the woman’s eyes.
“When I saw the mural, I couldn’t believe it… . It’s a very old record, but I remember reading it. Personification of death… . The descent of destruction… .”
“like.”
“Yes, Thanatos. Thanatos’ flower. “It clearly said that.”
“… This is amazing. “I can’t believe there are still people left who remember my true name.”

The color of the light that still doesn’t change, and the woman’s refreshing recognition. At that moment, Ian seemed to have lost all his strength and suddenly collapsed into the chair. And suddenly she cupped her face with both hands.
“oh my god… . What kind of beings have we liberated? ? How could this happen… .”
The Knights of the Round Table, who had been listening quietly, looked at Ian with nervous eyes. The personification of death, the descent of destruction. Just hearing this doesn’t sound like a good thing. Although she was in pain and talking to herself intermittently, she could intuitively sense that the woman in front of her was something out of the ordinary.
The tension, which had gradually eased due to the woman’s polite attitude, became tense again starting a little while ago. Some are already secretly grabbing weapons. The revived line of tension quickly becomes a point-and-shoot situation, as if it is on the verge of breaking.
“then.”
At that time, the woman who was leisurely looking around suddenly crossed her arms.
“Now, may I ask you a question? “If you don’t mind.”
When the woman, or rather Thanatos, smiled softly, everyone flinched and showed a puzzled expression. Although she acknowledged herself as a god, her appearance and behavior did not make her feel like a god at all.
However, once the tension had surfaced, it was accelerating even further. Even beads of sweat were seeping from the hilt of the sword Eldora was clutching.
While everyone was waiting for the signal, Thanatos spoke.
“Who are you?”
“… what?”
The Eldora Army frowned at the unexpected question. You did not understand the intention of the question.
“Oh, that’s the wrong question. Of course you are human.”
Thanatos seemed to have sensed something, and slowly shook his head.
“but… . Well, what should I say. When I quietly felt it… . Feeling different? No foreign matter? “I feel that energy.”
After saying that, they suddenly gently hold hands.
“ah. So, I feel like an outsider who shouldn’t be in this world in the first place.”
The great library, where tension had been building, suddenly became agitated. The users all began to look at each other in confusion. Thanatos said it was a feeling, but it was actually exactly right. Meanwhile, Ian nodded hastily.
“Yes, that’s right. As you said, we are not from this world. “The world I originally lived in is separate, and I am forcibly summoned to this hole plane.”
“As expected, it was like that. … I beg your pardon? forcibly?”
Thanatos, who seemed to accept it calmly, suddenly questioned the next question in confusion. And suddenly he looked straight at El Dora and asked as if he was really curious.
“why? Why were you forcibly summoned? “For what purpose?”
“that.”
Eventually, Eldora reflexively opened her mouth,
“that… .”
Moment,
“… case.”
He looked as if he was speechless.
It wasn’t just Eldora. Not only Melinus, but all the Knights of the Round Table looked equally devastated.
In fact, Thanatos’ question was an extremely simple one. Also, it was a question that everyone had thought about at least once.
why.
… however.
“… … .”
On the one hand, it was a question that struck the core.
The true meaning of existence as a user, which no one except one person knows.

As a result of shouting at the top of my voice, I was barely able to stop Ansol from opening the box.
Just as he was about to call out to him to give him a hard scolding after gathering himself from his shock, the three threw down the box and quickly ran away.
In fact, there was nothing that couldn’t be caught, but I was impressed by the cruelty of the two people who used Ansol as bait by stepping on Ansol, who was running away with him, and decided to stop at just confiscating the box. (In fact, I was burdened by Ansol, who was crying out loud at being betrayed. .)
After retrieving the box and returning, I gathered my thoughts for a while and then spoke to Hwajeong.
‘Hwajeong.’
– why?
You weren’t sleeping yet. thank god.
‘Tell me what you know about Thanatos.’
– hey. I told you not to talk about her. Just thinking about it makes me uncomfortable!
‘Please, please. ‘It’s because the only one I can trust is you.’
– … I’m curious about something.
When I asked, pretending to be earnest, my voice broke as expected. Hehehe. Hwajeong is surprisingly weak-hearted.
‘Any information you know is fine. Related records, powers used, personality, appearance… .’
– what? Let’s listen to this! When we talk about God, why do we talk about his appearance? why! Is it because you want to destroy her like Gehenna? I really can’t pray.
‘That’s not what’s important… . And why not ask what you look like? Gehenna is like that, and Hwajeong is like that too. I think Thanatos would be pretty too.’
– What, what?
As he spoke softly and coaxed her gently, Hwajeong, who had been furious, hesitated and stuttered. Probably ‘Hwajeong, you too.’ It seems that emphasizing the word was effective.
‘Why are you reacting so sensitively? It’s just a feeling.’
– Noisy. shut up. And Thanatos, do you think he is a noble and elegant god like me?
I almost burst out laughing for a moment, but I barely held it back.
– Not at all. By your standards, it’s a breakdown of character, no. It is a disaster that cannot be compared to a natural disaster.
‘I think I’m only saying it in a negative way. Still, as much as he is a god… .’
– It’s up to the gods. They treat me like this because I’m a good person. Have you seen Gehenna? Don’t you remember how he treated humans when he first saw them?
‘So Thanatos is worse than that?’
– Needless to say, nagging.
‘Ohh.’
When he intentionally added a hint, Hwajeong snorted and became sarcastic.
– Oh-ho, that’s some goddamn oh-ho. Anyway, I know what you expect, but wake up. This is sincere advice.
‘No, well…’ .’
– Sheesh. Anyway, who wouldn’t say that he’s a slut? … ah. And what? Hwajeong Are you like that too? It’s not even funny. Even though you have never seen my body.
‘If you say that, I have nothing to say.’
– I guess so. Don’t ever say that again. Because it’s the same with humans.
‘okay. i get it.’
Hwajeong’s tone of voice became twice as sharp as usual, which raised a white flag. Still, I’ve gotten some information, so I guess I’ll just be satisfied with it for today.
Anyway, just like Hwajeong’s concerns, I have no intention of doing anything about Thanatos. There is no reason to go through the trouble of buying it in the first place, and there is no need to take risks. but… .
– Hmm, hmm.
It was then. Just as I was about to lose myself in my thoughts, an awkward coughing sound suddenly rang in my head.
– I said something and he suddenly became quiet. God, so embarrassing.
‘That’s because it seems like you don’t like it.’
– … It’s okay, it’s okay. Uh, what do you think?
‘what?’
– Yes, he said it would be pretty. Oh, how do you think it would look pretty?
‘… … .’
Trying hard to pull down the corner of my mouth that was about to go up for a moment, I stared at the night sky beyond the terrace.
If there’s one thing I gained from going through the first episode and this episode, it’s the difference in ‘feel’. In other words, it must be said that it is a little strange. It’s not clear at all that Ansol tried to open the box even though he was told so clearly, and that Thanatos suddenly came to mind. To just dismiss it as a joke… .
It goes without saying that Ansol’s luck is especially good, but my luck level is by no means low. But wouldn’t it be good to interpret the fact that something strangely bothers me over and over again as a signal of some kind?
Yes, even if you say it’s unfounded, it’s okay. There is a saying that you may be able to forgive a soldier who lost a war, but you cannot forgive a soldier who was negligent in keeping his guard up. I don’t think the devil will leave like this.
… Let’s keep this in mind first. When you really encounter it, at least you won’t be surprised.
– Do you want bigger breasts? Hey, Kim Soo-hyun. Are you listening?
‘huh?’
– you… . You like big breasts.
‘no?’
– … no?
‘Everything is fine with you. Whatever it looks like.’

『Kim Soo-hyun Memoirs』
… When I said that with a grin, I thought I said something pretty good.
But that thought disappeared completely after about five seconds.
If only I had known that the explosion of Hwajeong would lead to a huge fireworks display that would go beyond Mercenary Castle and light up the entire city… .
I would never, ever say that.
