Heir (2)
Doo-duh-duh-!
A violent tremor was occurring beneath the brilliantly shining roots of the World Tree.
The vibration was a gesture made by a world tree trying to raise itself, and it was also a harsh roar made by a dragon slayer sword trying to connect worlds.
“Oh…”
The old elders opened their mouths wide as they looked up at the world of elves that had been created once again.
A world of cones that fills the inside of the young world tree.
The sight of the barrier ceremony built up over countless years slowly coming down was extremely tense and stimulating a strange emotion.
“at las!”
Finally, the elves’ barrier that touched the dragon slayer sword began to slowly melt.
The barrier formula, which had begun to melt from the bottom and turn into shining powder, became a single line and was slowly being engraved on the surface of the sword, regardless of its massive volume.
“It is done. “It’s done!”
Shouts of joy began to erupt from the mouths of the elders who saw this.
Because it looked completely different from the swords I had seen before.
Unlike other swords, the Dragon Slayer Sword was neither exploded nor crushed, and was still standing still, clearly showing its original silver color.
Ugh-uh-uhh!
Even though the rough techniques digging into his body were painful.
Nevertheless, the Dragon Slayer Sword was still standing resolutely and trying to endure it all.
Because for the dragon slayer who was born in the starlight, this land that is currently in danger was like his hometown where he was born.
“……”
However, Vlad’s expression was becoming increasingly serious as he listened to the screams of the dragon slayer behind him.
The elders may not have known it, but Vlad, who shared the same world as the Dragon Slayer Sword, realized that his sword had reached its limit.
And as if the idea was correct, the melting cone world began to slowly tilt.
Kugugoogung-!
Not with a sound you hear in your ears, but with a breakdown you can hear through your soul.
As they watched the world of cones losing their balance, like a falling tree, the faces of the elders, who had been immersed in joy until just a moment ago, began to appear on the faces of the elders.
Old Geronimo, who was watching this with them, let out a sigh as if he could not dare to accept it.
“No… no.”
However, despite his earnest cries, the world of elves is becoming increasingly dangerous.
The dragon slayer sword supporting it was struggling to maintain balance, but the duty it had to accept was heavy and the world it had to unfold was too wide.
Doo doo doo!
The young world tree was crying as it watched.
It’s as if he feels sorry for the world of elves that is trying to fall on him.
However, the young world tree, unable to extend even a single branch toward the unconnected world, simply collapsed as it watched the world of the elves collapsing.
※※※※
Crrrrr-!
Wow!
The vibrations coming from the forest were unusual.
This was because not only were there vibrations from beneath the ground, but there were also beings trampling on the ground.
“There are too many! Captain!”
“The traps are useless!”
There were corpses running out, turning the green forest pitch black.
They were running at random with their pure white wings shining, paying no heed to the arrows fired by the elves, and were only heading towards one place.
Kugoogung! Quagang!
The sound of a trap collapsing loudly.
Even though he was buried in a deep hole and pierced by a rising wooden spear, the black waves heading towards Aushurin showed no signs of stopping.
“……Retreat!”
There was no need to check ahead.
After confirming that the first line to block intruders had been breached, the leader gritted his teeth and lit the beacon next to him.
“Everyone retreat! Join the second line!”
The elves who had come out to intercept following the leader’s command quickly began to retreat.
However, the black waves of corpses approaching with no time to breathe had a speed so intense that even the agility of the elves could catch up.
Wow!
this! When did we end up here?
There was black smoke rising above someone’s screams.
The smoke seen in Aussurin rose much faster than Varadis expected.
“I see smoke. Mr. Varadis.”
“…….”
Varadis, who was observing the situation in front of the wooden fence, bit his lip when he heard a report from next to him.
“We have received a report that we encountered enemies on the second line!”
“Leader. “It is said that not a single person who retreated from the first line is seen.”
Varadis’ countenance wavered once again upon hearing the report that not a single person had joined.
Although the personnel were selected so strictly that they were placed in the most dangerous first line, the speed of the enemy’s advance easily exceeded Varadis’ expectations.
‘…It’s an unbelievable speed.’
Disturb them with arrows and block them with traps.
Varadis was trying to buy as much time as possible before his enemies reached Ausurin, but his attempts were in vain from the beginning.
‘And there are too many.’
The forest was like a natural castle wall, but even this dense forest was not enough to block all the thousands of corpses unleashed by evil people.

Moreover, for some reason, the corpses that were running now were running towards this place where the elves were without even the slightest hesitation even in the complicated forest path.
“It’s black magic.”
At that moment, there was a low sound coming from behind Varadis.
It was the voice of the godmother of the Luga family, who was holding a pipe in her mouth.
“There is no need to find the right path because you are walking in a dark place.”
Although it is an evil being, black magic also originates from mystery.
The godmother of the Luga clan was shaking off the cigarette ash, as if she was displeased with their methods, which only her peers could understand.
“How many more enemies will come in the future?”
“…Let me take a look.”
Although they were not yet colleagues or comrades-in-arms, the godmother decided to grant Varadis’ request.
Because behind the Aussurin fence that their backs were now facing, there were not only elves but also the precious children of the Luga clan.
Phew –
the godmother’s loud exhalations were filled with acrid smoke.
Her breath, riding the wind, had already crossed the forest and was heading towards the army of humans outside.
‘I can’t believe there were so many warlocks gathered together.’
Beyond the forest seen through the mystery, warlocks who appeared to be dozens of years old were standing side by side.
They are reciting strange spells to suit the world they have built.
However, the godmother of the Luga family was able to find a woman among them who exuded a strong presence.
‘Is it that woman?’
It was a woman dressed in black mourning clothes who looked unusual at first glance.
Although it was impossible to see her in detail because she was covered by a thick veil, her beauty could be guessed just by looking at her bright red lips.
“…!”
The godmother of the Luga family, who was looking at the woman, stopped breathing for a moment as goosebumps ran up her back.
Because the woman was smiling as if she had noticed her godmother’s gaze.
“hello.”
Seeing her smile as pale as a corpse and making eye contact with her, the godmother of the Luga family hurriedly waved her hand and began to disperse the accumulated smoke.
“Oh my god…”
“What’s going on?”
Varadis asked as he looked at the godmother of the Luga clan, who had suddenly started a fight, but she didn’t say anything and just stood up with her cane.
“A very noble wizard. “This is literally my first time seeing something like that.”
“…….”
“It won’t be easy for you or me.”
As the godmother spoke, the earth-shaking sound was getting closer.
Varadis, who heard that heavy sound, became convinced that even the second line he had prepared would soon collapse.
※※※※
“……Now.”
Old Geronimo sighs as he sees his world collapsing.
At that moment when he had to give up everything, Geronimo could feel a ray of wind passing by his shoulders.
“Off!”
It was a wind created by a man who ran up to the altar without anyone stopping him.
Vlad went up to the altar with the wind and was holding his sword with a familiar hand.
“…Why does this hurt so much!”
A sharp sensation, as if teeth were grinding together, was digging into both hands, but Vlad still did not let go of his tight grip.
The elders were so surprised to see Vlad pushing away the dragon slayer sword that he was gradually falling over that they could not even scream and just opened their mouths wide.
[Get away now! It’s a poisonous technique that the human body cannot handle!]
Even Kihano, who was astonished by Vlad’s sudden behavior, told him to let go of his grip, but Vlad was still trying to raise the falling dragon slayer sword.
“Then what should I do! “They say this is the last time!”
As Vlad said, the cone shining inside the World Tree was truly the last chance to contain the hopes of the elves.
Vlad knew very well that if this barrier ceremony failed, the only thing that could protect Aussurin would be the hastily made fence erected by Varadis, and even that would not be able to hold out for long.
[…But!]
But it shouldn’t be done like this.
What was visible was a dragon slayer sword, but the essence of what the sword was trying to contain was the world of the young World Tree.
The elves’ magic was an attempt to succeed, so what Vlad was trying to create now was not just a sword, but a world as wide and deep as Aushurin.
“A knight of humans! “Get off now!”
“If you continue to stay there, you will be crushed to death by its presence!”
Deeudeeudeeudeuk-!
With the cries of the elders, the tremors beneath the ground were becoming more intense.
It was the scream of the ground unable to bear the increasingly heavy world.
“Kwaaah!”
However, Vlad just held on to his sword and continued to push it as if he could not hear anything.
Vlad’s golden world, which he instinctively closed, was shining as if it were about to explode, but as if that wasn’t enough, Vlad’s toes were only being pushed further and further away.
[Wind it up!]
“You wound it up!”
[Close your right eye too!]
You must build it through the world you have, not through the body.
However, since Vlad had already opened his world with all his might, the only person who could help Vlad’s world, which was now trying to raise the sword, was the Quihano who lived inside.
“profit!”
I have to see my world with my closed left eye and this world with my open right eye.
Vlad had learned that it was a balance of degrees and the only way for the country to avoid being buried by the world, but now there was no way.
[slowly. Take a deep breath.]
As Vlad closed his right eye and turned away from reality, all he could see was pitch black darkness.
However, from that moment on, the elders standing in reality could see the shape of someone exiting through Vlad’s right eye.
The faint figure was trying to lift the collapsing sword next to Vlad, who was exerting a lot of strength.
[Look through the sword you are holding.]
The appearance of a young world tree trying to enter this world through the sword you are holding.
The World Tree, which had only a young priestess as its only passage to the world, was trying to create another passage called the Dragon Slayer Sword to prevent a crisis in the land where it was rooted.
[Can you see it now?]
It was my world that I couldn’t control and was falling into, but Quijano’s voice, firmly established, was still above.
Vlad raised his head following the voice and could see a small root wriggling above him.
[Bring that guy.]
Quijano’s voice was getting farther and farther away, but Vlad could tell what he was trying to say.
My world was like a brush that paints the world, but it could also be a pure white drawing paper for someone else.
Seeing the green world wanting to draw something through me, Vlad stretched out his hand with all his might.
※※※※
Kuwak! Sigh! Quang!
The sound of shaking the wooden fence was loud.
Even the large wooden fence was shaking due to the ignorant headbutting that no living person could do.
Wow!
Kiik! Key profit!
“Leader!”
A corpse had crept in between them, baring its teeth fiercely.
The head was half crushed, but it had managed to create a gap, and the gap was widening as the head nodded violently, paying no attention to its own body.
“Don’t back down! “This is the last place we can hold out!”
Now that the second line that had been worked so hard to build had collapsed, and now only the barrier that could be said to be the last bastion remained, the only thing Varadis could say to the elves was to not back down.
Whoop-!
Acrid smoke began to billow out as the godmother exhaled with difficulty.
Her acting, which made even the dead suffer, caused even the corpses to retreat, but that gap was only for a moment.
thud! thud! thud!
At that moment, there was a sight visible through the gap where the corpses had escaped.
A huge body that is clearly visible even in a dim view, obscured by smoke.
The corpse looked as if it had been made by beating everything up and making people vomit just by looking at it, but the impact that the massive body would cause was probably real.
“That crazy guy is running!”
“Everyone put up a fence! “It must not collapse!”
Everyone knew that even the slightest hole should not be created.
Because right now there was a lot of rotten water pouring out through that hole.
“Let the arrow fly!”
“What on earth are druids doing?!”
As if someone’s cry was a signal, a herd of wild boars began running from the forest toward the enormous, hideous, tattered corpse.
The formation that was threatening the fence was greatly shaken by the sudden appearance of a herd of wild boars, but as if the limitations of their weight class were unavoidable, even the powerful charge of the wild boars could not stop the movement of the huge tattered corpse.
Kwazizig!
The fence that the elves had put up with great effort fell back due to the rough charge of the guy who couldn’t handle it.
Ahhh-!
No, it broke through.
Although it was a deeply embedded fence in preparation for the current situation, one side collapsed as if it could not withstand the onslaught of the tattered corpses, which were more vicious than any siege weapon.
Stop it now!
It must not be pierced!
Everyone began to run out to close the gap that was finally being created.
The warriors, both elves and Luga, who ran out, fiercely resisted, swinging their weapons, but once the hole in the dam had been breached, it could no longer block the incoming wave.
Wow!
The huge wave of waves that had been blocked by the fence began to creep towards Aussurin through the small gaping hole.
Even the warriors who tried to keep their positions began to be swept away by the strong waves that they could no longer block with their bodies.
“Holy shit!”
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Varadis’ left eye was burning as he watched the scene.
However, the pentagram engraved on his left eye alone was not enough to stop the influx of corpses.
“no!”
Black waves begin to invade the world of elves, following Varadis’ single scream.
In the place where we passed by, a world of evil people leaving no possibility was flocking towards Aushurin.
“……get off.”
At that moment of desperate despair, when the fangs of the vicious people were wide open towards Aushurin, there was a green wave quietly spreading.
Seaaaaagh –
A wave that begins to spread gently, like the autumn wind passing by a wheat field.
The green wave, which started from someone’s sword stroke, was following the flowing wind, quietly splitting the corpses and moving towards the fallen wooden fence.
“Vlad?”
What comes at the end of the quiet waves is only the clear silence that the forest holds.
Varadis, who recognized the person who created the wave, raised his eyes in surprise, but Vlad, who had his eyes closed, did not recognize him and was just smiling alone.
“yes. like that.”
Now, talking to the voice of the World Tree that I can hear through my world.
Vlad’s re-erected sword face was filled with complex techniques that had never been seen before.
“Try taking root once.”
Kugugugugu –
With Vlad’s words, the green paint towards this world began to paint its own picture.
The world of the World Tree, which was depicted through Vlad’s sword, not the young priestess, was all green and all blue.
Looking at the color starting from the tip of Vlad’s sword, Varadis could only stare at the scene depicted in front of him in disbelief.
“What the hell is this…”
The wooden fence was standing up.
As they raise their deeply rooted bodies.
The fences were all broken and covered in scars, but green buds blooming here and there were already filling up the wounds of the trees.
Even those who were revived, looking at the wooden fences that made up that huge body, just stopped and raised their heads.
However, Vlad, who could not actually see the scene, just nodded and smiled as if he now understood.
“Ah. It was this color.”
A world that can be fully understood with both eyes closed.
Vlad, who was now standing in someone else’s world, not reality, was holding on to a small root and looking at a world filled with green light.
Do not pull out the sword I have sheathed.
Until the children do not starve, until the young tree in front of me can fully take root.
But now Vlad drew his sword and grabbed the root of the World Tree.
So now it was time to cut down those starving corpses of children.
“Then what should I draw you this time?”
When Vlad opened his right eye to do so, the world was filled with green.
