Episode 289
outer space (6)
“… … .”
“… … .”
“What? That gaze. That’s unpleasant. Get rid of that rude snow before you burn it.”
The voice of an angry Cthuga.
The Great Old One’s voice is not one that a mere mortal can tolerate. Regardless of the severity, it would have been a situation where he would have bled and fainted immediately if he had been wired, but that didn’t happen.
Rather the opposite.
Jeong Do and Yoo Seon were looking at Kthuga with expressions of not knowing what to make of this.
After rubbing his eyes, he looked at Kthuga again. But he didn’t change anything, so he just asked.
“… … “What does that look like?”
“What kind of crazy talk are you talking about? Have you already forgotten? You asked me to change my appearance, and this generous body complied. “I said I, a weak being, couldn’t bear it.”
It was as he said.
Although it was only his right arm, the Great Old One’s presence was powerful, and Yoo Seon could only tremble, still covering his eyes and ears from that presence.
Since he couldn’t stay in that state forever, he asked to have his presence erased, and as a result, Kthuga completely suppressed his original power. In other words, his body mutated into human form.
The result was successful. Yoo Seon no longer needs to suffer from Cthuga’s energy and can now communicate… .
“Why do you look like a child?”
That was the reason why I couldn’t help but make a strange expression. Cthuga, who changed into human form, looked like a child, no older than 10 years old.
Bright blonde hair down to her waist and skin as white as a snowflake. There are red eyes that look as if they were beautifully crafted with red rubies.
A young girl wearing a stylish black and red party dress was looking at the camera with a frown.
“child? Something like that, I don’t know. This body simply read the information of this universe and took on the appearance of the race that was most compatible with this body. Okay, in this language… “They are a race called vampires.”
“… … what? vampire?”
Vampires are rare, but high-ranking monsters that are occasionally found in dungeons. Although it is a grade A monster and is very difficult, dungeons where vampires appear often have good rewards, so they were very popular monsters.
But as far as I know, vampires are not that beautiful. She has such a hideous appearance that one might even believe she is a zombie… … .
“I just borrowed the form of the most powerful being among the vampire race. “It’s not like I chose someone based on their appearance or anything like that.”
“I see.”
Unless that girl’s appearance isn’t to Kthuga’s taste, there’s nothing much to say. No, actually, even if that’s your preference, there’s no reason to say anything. I just looked at him in surprise.
“Let’s go quickly. “I want to burn that guy right now!”
After saying that, Kthuga sniffed the air and started moving to one side. It looked like a puppy… I didn’t express it out loud. Because I didn’t want to burn before Nyarlathotep.
‘By the way, he’s a vampire.’
There was such a being hiding on Earth. Well, in a situation where there are monsters like Orochina and immortals, it wouldn’t be strange if there were vampires.
I was curious about this for a moment, but I quickly put it out of my mind. He felt like his head was going to explode just from what was right in front of him.
Sigh!
While the group was moving quickly, the Deep Ones once again surged out of the swamp, emitting an unpleasant fishy smell. Unfortunately, defeating the boss named Dagon did not cause all of his minions to evaporate like in the game.
They just rushed towards the group.
“Tsk. Are idiots the only descendants of idiots? “No matter how much I hide my energy, I can’t recognize this body.”
“It’s even stranger if you recognize it when you see it.”
“joy. It’s just ignorance. And this body has no intention of showing mercy to such ignorant bastards.”
Cthuga lightly waved his hand, and three lumps of flame appeared in the air. As he pointed at the Deep Ones with his fern-like hand, a ball of flame rushed at them at breakneck speed. It was a fireball the size of a child’s head, but its power was by no means light.
Quagwagwang!
“Keeeeek!”
“Keeeeeek!”
Just before the three fireballs reached the Deep Ones, they expanded rapidly and engulfed the Deep Ones with a roar. Flames flew in all directions and the ground melted.
“Ugh! Please be careful! “Aren’t there sparks flying this way too?”
“joy. What a noisy little creature. Should this body even care about such things? Avoid it yourself!”
“Ugh. A violent girl logo.”
The phrase ‘there is nothing rough’ is probably used in times like these.
As we progressed, we were attacked by Deep Ones, but it was pointless. Dozens of Deep Ones, each one of the White class, rushed at them, but they could not even get close and they all melted away. It all happened with a small gesture from Cthuga.
How much time has passed like that?
Kthuga’s collapse, which seemed like it would last forever, finally came to a halt.
“… … joy. It still smells bad. “I feel like my nose will get twisted.”
Where Kthuga said that and glared, there were seven human figures.
Yes. Inyoung.
It is not the shape of a fish monster, but a clear human shape. They were the first ‘humans’ I met after coming here.
Six humans wearing various masks and a man covered in robes who appeared to be their representative walked forward and bowed their heads towards Cthuga.
“Greetings to Cthuga, the great old being of outer space… .”
“Shut up. Don’t let my name come out of your mouth and make you smell dirty. “If you speak one more time, I will kill you.”
“… … Excuse me. However, it is difficult for me to ignore the expression “dirty smell.” Before Him, you too are nothing more than a creature. Source of fire.”
After saying that, the robe man looked at Jeongdo this time.
“Calm down.”
“Do you know me?”
“Of course you don’t know. It’s my first time meeting you face to face, but I can’t help but notice. “Because you disrupted our relationship, our relationship has been greatly disrupted.”
“okay? That’s a shame. But you don’t have to worry about that anymore.”
Jeong Do took out the Holy Light Spear Brunak from Ixia and continued speaking.
“Because after today you won’t even be able to plot!”
Toukwaang!
I threw Brunak with all my might. A ray of white flash flew towards the robed man.

‘You shouldn’t give it time.’
At least as soon as the robed man and the masks appeared, I activated the <Void> skill in my mind. Since it was not an entity in outer space, the information was naturally output by the void, and its information was very simple.
[Name: Nephren-Ka]
[Level: 117]
By Earth standards, he had a level of SS or higher. It wasn’t impossible. It had been quite some time since the Earth’s experience lock was unlocked, and it was not surprising that a person in an important position in Karma was SS level or higher. In other words, his information was too ordinary to even think about.
but.
‘Why is it normal?’
Ordinary things were the problem.
Common sense tells us that his information should never be ordinary.
The robed man correctly referred to it as ‘C’thuga’ and was aware that C’thuga was a being from outer space.
The story is that at most a level 117 player blocked Kthuga. What on earth are you doing? Wouldn’t it just disappear with a single wave from Kthuga?
‘There’s something.’
The information that appeared in the notification window was very ordinary, but I decided that it was not ordinary. And as soon as he made his decision, he kicked out Brunac. Even if you have a plan, don’t give them time to unfold it!
A level 117 absolutely unstoppable white flash flew towards the robe man.
Kaaaaang!
Just before Brunak reached the robed man, the black curtain completely blocked the attack.
“Tsk.”
Jeongdo clicked his tongue slightly. There was also a part of me that believed in it.
“I was wondering how level 117 kidnapped Hae-joon and Ellie, and there was a part of me that believed them.”
“kidnap? Calm too. You are mistaken. It wasn’t us who kidnapped those two. “Someone we partner with.”
“what? who… .”
“I have no intention of telling you. Instead, why not worry about yourself? Surely I told you there was no need to worry about that? “I completely agree.”
With the man’s words, the black curtain that had blocked Brunak began to condense together.
“You will die right here.”
Wow.
In an instant, a heterogeneous energy began to be created around the robed man, and the moving black curtain soon turned into a single object.
“… … book?”
A large book the size of an adult man’s torso appeared in front of the robed man. The book had a very foreign and ominous energy. Before Jeongdo could use the <Void> skill on the book, Cthuga reacted first. He had a very surprised expression on his face.
“That guy. I heard that the smell was particularly unpleasant. “I never thought he was an apostle.”
“Apostle?”
“Those guys who have a thing for Niala. puppet. Avatar. These are all similar words, but the important thing is that he can embody some of Nyala’s power.”
“You’re sick of it? “Why is that here?”
“It’s his main tactic. After secretly entering another universe, they plant a new object, and when the time comes, they consume that universe through that new material. “It’s dirty and insidious, but it’s effective.”
“So that means that book has been on Earth for a long time? There’s no way something like that would be possible… .”
To some extent, it was difficult to accept Kthuga’s words easily. Even though I didn’t know exactly what abilities that book had, it was certain that it contained the energy of the outer universe.
“That can’t be possible. Win… … No, the cosmic agent is very sensitive to the outer universe. If something like that had existed before, I wouldn’t have missed it… .”
“His cunning is beyond imagination. He was probably pulling a trick that didn’t work out. Now that I think about it, I think I heard that he infiltrated this universe in the past and was chased out by an agent… … Be more careful than that.”
“what?”
“If that really is his new thing, then something unimaginable will happen from now on.”
Guuuuung.
The large book began to blink, emitting black light. Just as Cthuga had said, something was about to happen. Jeongdo hurriedly urged.
“Then we have to stop it! “You can do it.”
“Of course, the strength of this body is enough. Not even Nyala herself can destroy a sacred object with a single blow. but!”
Kthuga smiled wryly. It wasn’t the kind of smile you would see on a blonde kid, but ironically, it suited him very well.
“This body is not a coward. They tell me to try a trick or something. I will destroy everything from the front! “I want to see the look on his face when his plans are turned upside down!”
“I’m going to turn.”
I had a vague guess, but… … Kthuga was also a similar family to Cheokjungyeong. Regardless of whether the enemy is plotting or not, stimulate him as much as possible and force him to do his best. And the type of people who enjoy destroying opponents who are at 100% status. Crazy battle fanatics!
Jeongdo also possessed <Cheonmujiche>. To be honest, it’s not that I can’t understand that feeling, but I still have to choose the time and place!
“Stop talking nonsense and destroy that thing!”
“hate! “I want to see his distorted face!”
“I. “I’m sorry you two were arguing, but it seems like it’s already finished.”
“huh?”
When Do-do turned his head and looked at the robed man, a huge book was wide open. And then a black hand suddenly shot out from the book and grabbed all the masked people except the robed man.
[my… water!]
Wow.
Then, a large mouth appeared in the huge book and began to eat all the people it had caught. Yoo Seon turned his head at the grotesque sight, and Jeong Do reflexively used the Void skill toward the book.
Tiring!
<Necronomicon>
<Grade: Other than standard.>
<A grimoire containing the energy of the outer universe.>
<In the past, Nyarlathotep infiltrated Earth to devour the inner universe, but was immediately discovered by the Agent and driven out to outer space. However, before he was driven out, Nyarlathotep spread his power into the Nile River in Egypt, and that power accidentally fused with the primordial fragment that lay dormant at the bottom of the Nile River, giving birth to the Necronomicon. Afterwards, the Necronomicon fell into the hands of the <Black Pharaoh Brotherhood> and has been passed down to this day.>
<The leader of the ‘Black Pharaoh Brotherhood’ carries the name ‘Nephren-Ka’ from generation to generation. Nephren-Ka, who possesses the Necronomicon, can use Nyarlathotep’s power, albeit to a small degree.>
<Because half of the Necronomicon is from outer space, all information cannot be viewed through <Void Log>.>
<Effect 1: You can ‘temporarily’ summon an ‘existence from outer space’ by offering a sacrifice. The beings summoned are random. However, the more powerful the life of the sacrifice, the more likely it is that a powerful being will be summoned.>
<Effect 2: ???>
<Effect 3: ???>
“… … A fragment of the beginning?”
The degree was remarkable. And I also realized why Winry couldn’t sense that grimoire. Because the primordial fragment was undetectable even with Winry’s power!
But right now, I was more concerned about other words than those words.
Summons.
Summon a being from outer space by offering a sacrifice.
It’s like… Isn’t it the same as your own abilities?
Jijijijik.
A large crack began to form right next to the Necronomicon, which had devoured the sacrifice to its heart’s content. And then the crack widened, and the powerful energy of Dark Matter began to emanate from it. Seeing that scene, Kthuga laughed bitterly.
“Right. Is it a summoning ability? The restrictions were circumvented by imposing a ‘random’ penalty. “What a bastard trick.”
“It’s random, so it’s okay, right? “There won’t be someone as powerful as you, right?”
“well. You don’t know that. No, to be honest, there is a high possibility that it will come out. “I hate him so much, but there’s one thing I admit.”
To some extent, I felt ominous about Kthuga’s words, but I couldn’t help but ask.
“… what is that?”
“This guy’s luck is so good it gives me goosebumps. Come to think of it, I didn’t tell you. He has many talents, but if I had to pick just one, the most annoying one… .”
Support position.
The crack opened completely and a being slowly walked out of the crack.
“<Kangun-lv.3>. “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve lost sight of him because of that.”
Okay.
A man wearing a ‘yellow’ robe slowly walked out from the crack leading to outer space, with dark matter gushing out thickly.
