◈ Episode 270: Deep in the forest where people can’t see (4)
9 people, no. The eight incarnations were previously sealed by another incarnation.
As a result, the eight Avatars have been sealed for over several hundred years, and the same goes for each group that follows the Avatars.
Each group that followed the incarnations was all sealed in the same place where their incarnations were sealed, and were unable to have any significant influence on the world.
No matter how much an individual can escape from the seal, the strength of those who escape is weakened.
Additionally, the eight groups never helped each other.
That’s because they don’t think of each other as enemies, but they also don’t think of each other as colleagues.
To begin with, the eight incarnations were not allies.
The ideas they pursue are different, and the desires they pursue are different.
Above all, the world they pursue is different.
That’s why they could never be allies.
Of course, they are not attacking each other with the common opinion that they will rule the world as they please, but on the contrary, they do not feel any need to help.
Because that was the default thought in their heads, they had not helped each other until now.
It’s safe to say there was no reason to help in the first place.
until now.
“So, have you thought about it all?”
A few days after that.
The Four Great Heavenly Kings looked at the dwarf, who left and returned a few days ago, saying he would come back a few days later to hear the story after asking them to help him kill Kim Joo-hyuk.
“… … Are you trying to kill Kim Joo-hyuk?”
King Damuncheon’s question.
The dwarf spoke with a cheerful smile.
“okay. “I’ll handle it.”
“… … But why are you coming to us and asking for help?”
King Damuncheon’s words.
The dwarf continued to speak with his mouth trembling.
“You know the reason well, but why are you doing that? “Do you think I came because I needed your help?”
“… … .”
“I know that too!” Mandala is a group that has no power except for the four of you and your incarnations. Ah, did you feel a little bad about this?”
The dwarf continued his story cheerfully despite the Four Heavenly Kings’ faces crumpling.
“But this is true, right? “I brought this up because I thought we needed to calmly talk about what each other needs in order to form an alliance, so don’t be offended~”
The other Heavenly Kings did not show a stiff expression at the sight of him shaking his head left and right and talking as if he were joking, but King Damun Heavenly King, who was the only one among them who was pondering something, soon opened his mouth.
“… … “In short, what you want is for us to temporarily open the seal.”
“answer! You don’t have any force, but you can open and close this weakened seal to some extent, right? “Even if you are not a strong individual like me, you can escape from the seal.”
“… … If it comes out of the seal, its strength weakens. “You probably know that, right?”
“Of course I know. Oh, are you really going to tell me that the leader of Sanjeo went to the labyrinth and died? Then there is no need to talk about it. I know that too. “I heard this from an ‘informed source.’”
“… … “I’m informed?”
“Yes, I got caught unluckily and died.”
Giggling.
The dwarf said that and looked at King Damun Cheon.
“Ah, and I also know that it will be more tiring to deal with him because there is also a black dream over there right now.”
“Dark dream? If it’s a black dream… … .”
“You know, right? “I think it was created after we were sealed, and they say it’s quite powerful~”
“Then how do you plan to kill Kim Joo-hyuk?”
Dwarves are strong.
However, their strength basically comes from numbers, and although individual strength certainly exists, it is significantly inferior to Sanjeo.
In a word, it is said that even small people cannot accomplish what the mountaineers could not accomplish.
“It’s probably going to be hard to deal with him even if all of you gather around.”
In the end, King Damuncheon spoke of the conclusion he had drawn, but the dwarf answered.
“Eowangjong.”
“Eowangjong… … ?”
“The fish king servants also decided to help.”
King Damuncheon widened his eyes at the dwarf’s words.
“… … “Eowangjong agreed to help?”
“okay.”
“How on earth?”
When King Damuncheon asked with an expression that he did not understand, the dwarf spoke without erasing the smile he had been making from the beginning.
“No more talking. This is all the information I can give you. “We are trying to kill Kim Joo-hyuk, and King Eowangjong is participating in it.”
“… … .”
“What do you want to do?”
In response to the dwarf’s question, King Damuncheon looked around.
What you see are the faces of the heavenly kings all looking at you.
King Damuncheon, who was silent and thinking for a while, looked at the dwarf and spoke.
“Then let me ask you one last question.”
“However much.”
“… … “Why is the dwarf trying to kill Kim Joo-hyuk?”
In response to King Damuncheon’s question, the dwarf made a blank expression for a moment, but then smiled and spoke as if he understood the intention of the question.
“What you’re saying is, you didn’t suffer any harm anyway, so why are you trying to kill him? Anyway, we can handle it when the Avatars come out, right?”
“right.”

King Damuncheon’s words.
The dwarf nodded as if he understood.
“I don’t think hiding it would be of any use anyway, so let’s be honest.”
Soon the dwarf’s mouth split into a smile.
“We need his body. “Before Hwashin-nim came out.”
After saying that, I looked straight at King Damun Cheon.
“Now then, can I ask you again?”
The dwarf’s words.
To that, King Damuncheon.
“… … “I don’t think there’s any need to ask.”
I answered like that.

After Kim Joo-hyuk left, the guide began to listen to Zhong Li-quan about how things were going in the current world.
For her, it was very helpful to know exactly how the current situation was going.
So, even after Kim Joo-hyuk left, she continued to listen to Zhong Li-quan’s story and think about how to deal with the current situation.
Then, she turned her attention to the magical energy felt in the lounge.
“… … “It looks like you’ve made up your mind.”
“He’ll probably come get those two soon.”
Ugh-!
As soon as Zhong Liquan finished speaking, Arang came out at the same time as the magical power felt in the office.
“at las! “The captains opened the wooden box!”
Arang opens his mouth with an expression of great excitement.
He looked at Zhong Liquan and the guide once and then got straight to the point.
“Then can I take you two with me?”
“Is the place you want to go to Goesan?”
Zhong Liquan’s question.
Arang nodded his head.
“you’re right. “The names of all the captains are buried there.”
Hearing Arang’s words, Zhong Liquan shrugged his shoulders and looked at the guide, and she spoke.
“Well, first, get consent and then go together.”
“All right. However, the captains will not refuse. From what I understand, the things contained in that wooden box were things that the commanders had arranged separately in order to understand this situation.”
The guide didn’t respond to Arang’s words any longer, but turned his head and pointed toward the lounge. He lowered his head once and ran toward that direction as if there was no further delay.
So after a while.
Ugh-!
The guide, who confirmed that he could feel another magical power from the other side, spoke.
“It looks like he went there too, so I’ll find his name soon.”
“Probably so. “In the first place, we went over there to preserve the name.”
“Then, it seems that the work of replenishing the original number of troops has been completed to some extent, and now all that is left is… … “Is it an alliance?”
alliance.
The guide made a strange expression after saying those words, but soon changed his expression and remained silent.
Soon, after some time, we started talking.
“First of all, let’s go back to the original story. In the current situation, there are almost no people we can propose an alliance with, right?”
“To be honest, I would say yes. In the case of the Heavenly Army, it won’t move unless it directly suffers damage.”
“They are as stupid as ever. “When I see you cowering in fear even when you remember how you almost got hit like that before.”
A guide with a pitiful expression.
Zhong Liquan nodded his head and spoke.
“From what I heard, it seemed like the Avatars who came out after the seal was released were given attractive conditions.”
“… … “So you’re saying we could become enemies?”
“I think they probably won’t become enemies. “I will just remain neutral.”
“And the Watchmen and the Freshmen?”
“… … There is a high probability that the immortals have also heard the same story. However, the divine beasts and watchmen… … “There is definitely room for discussion.”
“Apart from the divine beasts, I guess the watchmen weren’t specifically targeted by Avatar’s lackeys?”
Zhong Liquan nodded at the guide’s words.
“They are basically individuals. “There is a high probability that I would have told it to strong individuals, but if not, I wouldn’t have bothered to tell it.”
“What about you monsters?”
“You’ll have to talk to those guys separately, too.”
Zhong Liquan’s words.
The guide thinks once again as if organizing his thoughts.
“… … “Then, let’s do it this way.”
He spoke as if an idea immediately occurred to him.

Hehehe!
Corpses rush in.
Among them, there were people without arms, and conversely, there were corpses without legs or eyes.
There were even corpses that were already rotting and giving off a foul odor, but the corpses rushed towards Kim Joo-hyuk as if that had nothing to do with it.
“Tsk.”
Kim Joo-hyuk clicks his tongue and cuts down corpses.
He frowned and looked at the bodies rolling towards him like a wave.
‘If it were a normal corpse, it wouldn’t matter.’
If these corpses flocking in were ordinary corpses, Kim Joo-hyuk wouldn’t have to worry too much.
Even if you don’t cut it in the first place, it has the power to cut through the corpses.
But the problem is that the approaching corpses are anything but ordinary.
Kwasik!
Sigh!
Kim Joo-hyuk, who cut down the body of the corpse that bit off his right foot, frowned as he looked at Parashurama, who pulled out an ax and came out from among the corpses as if he had been waiting.
And then-
Kwazijic!
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at the corpses flocking towards him with a horrifying sound.
After some time, I returned to the room again.
“… … .”
Tsk-!
Kim Joo-hyuk, who silently carved another scar on the floor, was troubled as he thought about Parashurama raising the corpse and starting to fight for the dozenth time.
‘What should we do with these corpses?’
The corpses handled by Parashurama are hard and agile.
In addition, the attack that ignores the bodies of corpses whose lives already exist does not exist, forcing Kim Joo-hyuk to swing his sword at least once.
once.
However, in a fight in the strong, a single swing became a very big weakness, and thanks to that, Kim Joo-hyuk was unable to land a significant attack after Parashurama brought the corpses to life.
“hmm… … .”
Moreover, the most unpleasant thing of all is death.
Before the corpses were brought back to life, Kim Joo-hyuk almost died instantly.
However, now that the corpses have begun to be revived, Parashurama deliberately did not end Kim Joo-hyuk’s life, but only rendered him incapable of fighting.
The reason is to make Kim Joo-hyuk feel a little more pain by being eaten by corpses.
As a result, Kim Joo-hyuk felt his body throbbing and thought for a while about how to overcome this obstacle without immediately touching the ax this time.
[Can I help you?]
“?”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been thinking for a while, made a dazed expression when he suddenly heard a voice, and then looked at the ice sword he was wearing on his waist.
[How to solve this. I know.]
Kim Joo-hyuk’s eyes widened at her continued voice.
