< Episode 377. Unseal >
Inside an old building on a deserted street in Zakata.
Prisoners gathered in groups of twos and threes were crowded around.
“I can’t believe it. “How can they let humans in here?”
“Even that old man was barely tolerating me… “This clearly crossed the line.”
They were members of the so-called hardliners scene. Not all the beasts in Zakata belonged to Scene, but all of the beasts gathered here belonged to Scene.
“You have to make a decision.”
The gazes of the gathered prisoners turned to someone.
A beastman with the appearance of a lizard was standing there.
“I will awaken gluttony.”
“Oh oh!”
Everyone let out a quiet cheer at the lizard beastman’s words.
“Just then, Deshurn left. Now there’s nothing to worry about. Besides, the emperor came here? Rather good. “It would be perfect to take advantage of the emperor’s absence to awaken Gluttony and cause chaos in the empire.”
Karman, the lizard beast, felt that all of this was fate for them.
“Still, we’ll need a few days to prepare, right?”
“No, do it immediately.”
“yes? Ha, but the sacrifices…”
“An exchange meeting was probably held, right? Even if it’s a little lacking, make an offering to them. “The rest will make up for itself.”
There was silence for a moment at Karman’s words, but soon the hardliners also nodded. In their thoughts, there was no right time other than now.
‘Although I am a little unprepared…’
It was better than missing the current situation.
“Then we will each decide on a role. Some of them will have to make sacrifices… but those sacrifices will be considered noble.”
“I don’t mind if it’s for the extermination of humans!”
“Finally, the world of us beastmen!”
The prisoners, very excited by the unexpected act, began to run wild. Karman captured the scene with vertically slit eyes.
“For Sin, no, for us prisoners.”
**
The cave was filled with silence.
However, it wasn’t like I couldn’t guess anything from Ogwan’s words, so I asked cautiously.
“He is said to be the devil…”
“We can see the soul. Luna, you’ve probably been seeing this kid all along. “I don’t know why I didn’t show it, but I also stayed quiet until now because of this child.”
Eyes that see the soul.
It was clear that the devil she was talking about meant original sin.
‘Original sin is the devil? ‘What is a demon lord in the first place?’
The last boss summoned due to the sins required for clearing the game was something closer to the devil. The boss summoned was different each time depending on the number of sins collected, but perhaps that was why there was no doubt about the original sin.
‘A different boss appears every time, but it can’t all be the original sin.’
I wanted to know a little more. There was insufficient information.
But original sin, as always, remained silent.
“wait for a sec. “Are you saying there is a demon lord inside my brother’s body right now?”
At that time, Benjamin narrowed his eyebrows and spoke to Ogwan.
“Yes.”
“That’s nonsense. “My brother is someone who has never committed a single evil deed.”
How do you know that?
Benjamin always seemed to be kind to me anyway.
“Having the devil’s soul and that human mentality are two different things. “It’s hard to think that the Demon King is evil in the first place.”
“what? “What does that mean…”
“The concept of good and evil was ultimately created based on human standards, isn’t it? Should we say that it was made according to the standards of the gods at that time?”
Ogwan spoke to me with a grave expression.
“Even if the devil’s soul is in your body, nothing will change. You just have to live your life as usual. “What I was worried about was someone taking advantage of the Demon King’s body.”
“Abusing the devil’s body?”
“okay. The sealing stone I’m looking for is a medium that confirms whether the Demon King’s body is properly sealed. “As long as the body is properly sealed, there is no problem.”
for a moment······.
The devil’s body? Even after playing the game 12 times, I never heard of such a thing.
‘······Luna’s blood relatives from God should be surprised to learn this new fact.’
But why is such an ominous feeling coming over me? I slowly looked back at her head.
‘The reason I’m here wasn’t originally because of the Demon King’s body. But why did the emperor come here?’
At first, I thought it was because of gluttony, but when I actually visited the scene, it seemed that the emperor was not interested in this place. If you were interested, you would have bumped into me a long time ago.
‘The Emperor did not attack me. Of course, I knew the emperor would target me first, so I’ve been building a connection with Morhaime like that…’
The reason why the emperor was able to renounce original sin.
What are the odds that you came here in person for something more important or greater than original sin?
“I need to check the sealing stone quickly.”
“Do you have any clues?”
“I think the reason the emperor came here was because of the demon lord’s body.”
“······I guess I should hurry and check.”
Ogwan’s expressionless face became stiff.
Soon, as we started to walk faster, the Indian beastman who followed us without knowing why spoke.
“Is it okay for me to do this together?”
Judging by the trembling voice, it seemed like he sensed that our story was unusual.

“He said he had to check. “If you’re going back now, it doesn’t really matter.”
“Then I will go back and wait.”
“I’ll go with you too.”
Benjamin said, looking at the Toin beastman with suspicious eyes. I guess he thought that the Toin beastman might do something else.
When I looked at Benjamin, he seemed to want to go with me, but he seemed to be acting in a way that was more helpful to me.
“Anyway, the two of you can check the inside. “I’m with you.”
“······That’s right.”
Benjamin turned around with the prisoner, who nodded reluctantly but as if he understood.
“I’ll be waiting outside, brother.”
“okay. thanks.”
When I said thank you, Benjamin smiled. It’ll make a lot of women cry.
Just the two of us, Ogwan, entered at a faster pace. Once the knight’s mana could be used, the five senses were able to move freely as if all restrictions had disappeared.
‘Is that also a supplementary method?’
Before I knew it, my talent for copying the five senses’ steps was becoming a bit annoying, but after a while we were able to reach the end.
It was just the end of a cave with nothing in it, but I, with my sensitive mana, was able to sense something abnormal right away.
“The flow of mana…”
“From here on, we only need the blood of our blood relatives.”
Ogwan lightly plucked his fingertip and sprayed blood into the air. Then the hidden oriental-style door was revealed.
“Is this where the sealing stone is?”
“okay. “It’s been a really long time since I’ve been here.”
When Ogwan touched the door with his still bloody hand, a strange pattern on the door activated and began to move.
Kugoogung!
Ugh!
I felt my mana fluctuating and the seal bound to the door being lifted.
“Go in.”
“yes.”
As I carefully opened the door and entered, I saw an oriental-style shrine. And there was a stone that looked like a tombstone where the memorial tablet should have been placed.
But what about that…?
“It’s broken. Are you okay?”
“······.”
The five senses approached the stone without answering.
Then he slowly examined the situation and then turned to me.
“Did you know?”
“As expected, it’s not in good condition. “I thought about why the emperor came all the way to this desert.”
“Right.”
That was the end of the conversation.
Ogwan examined the stone in silence for a while and then slowly opened his mouth.
“The seal has been broken. I can’t use my hands anymore. “I don’t think they will handle the Demon King’s body properly, but it’s clear that something outrageous will happen.”
“Let’s leave aside how the emperor knew the location or existence of the body and ask for now. Where is the demon king’s body?”
“This is Jakataini… It’s about four days away to the southeast.”
“I have to go right away.”
There was no time to delay.
It was an episode I didn’t know about, and it was definitely a destruction-level episode.
“You came this far before, so just do one thing and leave.”
“yes?”
“Galaxur.”
Her opalescent eyes stared at the sword strapped to my belt.
“Originally, I wouldn’t have suggested this, but the Demon King’s body cannot be blocked with ordinary strength. Release Galakshur’s seal and go.”
“Galaxur?”
Without realizing it, I looked down at Galakshur.
Since the ability to overwhelm most named swords just by breaking the first seal, I didn’t even think about breaking the second seal…
“Is it possible?”
“Here, it is possible. “I happened to be the shaman in charge of the ancestral rites.”
This was an unexpected situation, but it wasn’t bad.
Rather, it was beneficial to become a little stronger when thinking about the emperor who might be planning something with the devil’s body.
“Let’s go out and talk about it. first······.”
Ogwan trailed off as he looked back at the sealing stone placed in the shrine one more time.
“The seal has already been broken.”
I came out of the shrine and closed the door again. Then the sealing barrier was activated again and the flow of mana changed.
“The way to unseal Galakshur is simple. But no one can solve it. In that respect, you are lucky.”
“Is it related to the shrine maiden you just mentioned?”
“right. Only a shaman can break Galakshur’s seal. “In the world now, there is no one who can solve this problem except me, who borrowed this child’s body.”
Ogwan shrugged his shoulders and said it was no big deal. However, I felt an invisible confidence in his gestures and tone of voice.
“In order to unseal Galakshur, you must go to the center of Zakata. “One thing that is ambiguous is that this place is underground, so let’s try that first and see.”
When I came out with Ogwan, Benjamin, who was holding a Toin beast, greeted me.
“Did your work go well?”
“ruined. So you have to move quickly. Go to where Threndal is right now and tell him that you have roughly guessed where the emperor is. “It’s four days southeast from here.”
“I understand, brother.”
Benjamin nodded and ran straight away.
After watching this, I headed to the center of the city with my five senses.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Passsss!
“what?”
The five senses were on alert and drew their swords.
The whole of Zakata shook as if there had been an earthquake, and sand poured down from above.
Exciting!
At the same time, my heart started pounding.
The correct answer to this reaction is…
“voracity.”
These crazy beasts are already so busy that they cause accidents.
“It was actually good.”
“what?”
The five senses looked at me with eyes that they could not understand. Although she knew the identity of original sin, she seemed unaware of sin.
Well, let’s leave the explanation aside for now.
“To unseal Galakshur, we need to resolve that first.”
It was one of those things that had to be solved anyway.
Since we can’t leave it like this, we can deal with it and catch the emperor.
“Ugh!”
“what’s the matter! “What the hell is this…!”
The prisoners came out of the building and ran away.
My five senses and I stood between them, feeling the energy of something growing bigger and bigger.
