Episode 99
King Yulho
[…] You really did something outrageous.]
While Elric was following King Yulho to another location, he turned his head slightly at the voice he suddenly heard.
Before he knew it, the camellia god on his shoulder was shaking his head as if he couldn’t stop him.
She had just come here after a short conversation with Otto Hahn.
[Is it okay for you to appear like this? I haven’t even planted the seeds yet.]
[It’s okay to hear it briefly. Oh, by the way, this woman will not be visible to King Tiger, who has the same head as King Velence. She deliberately did not want to be seen by anyone but you.]
Is that possible?
Considering King Yulho’s skills, his senses must be very sensitive.
[For this woman, becoming invisible is very easy. And if it is read by a mere creature, wouldn’t it be deprived of godhood?]
I guess it’s God.
Seeing you read your own thoughts so accurately.
On the outside, she just looks like the unemployed local older sister who likes to be hysterical and has a sharp personality.
[…] You seem to be having very unpleasant thoughts right now, don’t you?]
Is that possible?
How could I make such a blasphemous comment?
[joy! I think I had another strange thought, but I’ll just ignore it.]
The camellia god crossed his arms and snorted arrogantly.
[What are you going to do instead?]
[What do you mean?]
[What do you mean? Of course, this is a story about a tiger king with the same head. Do you really believe that this suspicious man will accept you as a ‘comrade’?]
Was it something like this?
Elric chuckled as he seemed to know why the camellia god appeared out of nowhere.
It seemed like he had been quietly watching this attack and couldn’t hold back any longer and suddenly came over.
What can I say? Should I say that it seems as if a loyal reader who enjoyed the article was so curious about the story behind it that he went to visit the author himself?
Somehow, Elric thought that the haughty queen of winter flowers might be cuter than he thought.
[Of course I won’t believe it.]
Elric very easily accepted King Yulho’s offer to follow him.
And now he was moving to where his tribe was.
[then… !]
[But you will have me by your side.]
The camellia god tilted his head.
[Why do you think so?]
[No matter how much the Beastmen tribe hates humans, ultimately, the current system is one where conflict between tribes is at its peak. It is not for nothing that they call this time the ‘Warring States Period’.]
[Hoo?]
[In the end, no matter what tribe you are in, you have no choice but to hire ‘talented people’ who can become a force, regardless of their origin. This is especially true if you are the ambitious King Yulho. It’s also good for surveillance, right?]
[but. That sounds plausible.]
The God of Camellia had a relieved expression on his face, as if his curiosity had finally been answered.
Still, I thought it was a bit silly to just say yes, so I asked a slightly mischievous question.
[But the beast people’s hatred for humans is very great. It is the same in this era and now. Even if King Yulho says so, what will you do if the tribe members do not?]
Now it seemed like they wanted to give me a spoiler.
Elric shook his head calmly.
[Still, you will understand.]
[why?]
[Because of the characteristics of their tribe.]
[…] ?]
What does this mean again?
The camellia god tilted his head and realized it too late.
[Right. The Antromorph tribe was originally a group of heretics.]
[and.]
[Is there anything else?]
[Actually, it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work out.]
[…] ?]
[Can’t we just keep rewinding until we find a way to save King Yulho’s heart?]
The camellia god looked appalled.
Then my impression hardened.
[Isn’t it too easy to think about death? No matter how much you rewind, it won’t be good for humans if you keep repeating it.]
[no. That’s because I know it well.]
[What… !]
[It’s true. I know it well.]
Elric recalled the first arrangement he experienced.
A fight with the Snow Mountain King where he had to die and die again.
As a result, his mind was worn out and he felt like he was going crazy, but in the end, he was able to understand the Snow Mountain King and strengthen his mind.
I have never thought of death easily.
[So, when I heard that Dongbaek had ‘withered’, that was why I was worried. Because I know very well how terrible the time of experiencing death is.]
[…] .]
Elric spoke calmly, but when he suddenly saw no response from the Camellia God, he slowly turned his gaze towards him.

The God of Camellia… She was avoiding his gaze with a face redder than her wings.
[Dongbaek?]
[Oh, why are you doing that!]
[Why is your face like that all of a sudden… aha?]
[W-what!]
The camellia god saw the corner of Elric’s mouth twitch and shouted and pointed at him.
But that made Elric’s smile even deeper.
[I guess God is also shy?]
[…] no.]
[That’s right. You’re embarrassed.]
[I said no!]
[Nun-i-nyun. yes. Well sir.]
[hey!]
As the Camellia God ran wild, a smile twitched on Elric’s lips.
‘I think I understand why King Seonjo keeps tormenting the Dongbaek God… . ‘Do you think your grandfather was like this too?’
The camellia god knew that Elric was willing to have blasphemous thoughts, but he felt annoyed because there was no way to punish him.
‘What happened to the ancestors and the descendants, and how come all the Mervingers are like this!’
Of course, even if I complained internally like this, no one would listen.
The camellia god had to seriously think about whether the most wrong choice he had ever made in his life was getting involved with the Mervinger tribe.
* * *
“Ugh! Chief! Please stop doing such unreasonable things! “Our hearts are all falling!”
The Antromorph tribe that Elric arrived with with King Yulho boasted a very peaceful atmosphere.
Like wandering nomads, several barracks were arranged in a circle, and they cooked food and trained together in an open space in the center.
However, if there is a problem, should we say that it is the chieftain who is always busy causing trouble?
Upon hearing the news that King Yulho had returned, the fighters who were ready for battle rushed to him.
“what? “What happened?”
“I heard there is a person who uses physical magic? I know what happened… !”
“The thing next to me, is that really possible?”
“It’s human! human!”
The tribe members all stopped what they were doing and hurriedly started using sign language.
‘wow. ‘It’s so diverse, right?’
At that time, the traditions of the Suin people were mostly united only by tribe and lineage, such as the Hoin people if they were Hoin people, and the Seo people if they were Seo people.
The types of faces you see now are very diverse.
“Everyone stop! “This guy is our brother!”
In response to King Yulho’s scolding, the tribe members openly showed their hostility towards Elric.
“sibling?”
“How on earth can humans become brothers?”
‘What on earth did the empire do in the past, so everyone is like this?’
Elric sighed without realizing it, but King Yulho, who judged it to be nervous, quickly stepped forward and persuaded the tribe members.
The same thing Elric said.
and.
‘… Are you crying?
No matter how plausible King Yulho’s explanation was, the tribe quickly became a sea of tears.
“… So this is what this brother’s teacher said before he closed his eyes for the last time! ‘Although our relationship was faced with the insurmountable limits of the race between humans and beastmen, I am grateful that when I left, I was able to throw away those things and remain only as teacher and disciple.’ ‘Let’s meet like this again in the next life!’”
‘… Did I even say that?’
Elric chuckled at the story full of spice, but couldn’t show it.
“Ughhhhh!”
“Oh my, Master!”
“I don’t know who that teacher is, but you are truly blessed to be able to serve such a person.”
“Oh, yes. yes… .”
Elric had to break out in a cold sweat as he looked at the beastmen who had already accepted him as their ‘brother’.
All of them were looking at me with tears in their faces wearing the masks of wild beasts… It felt a little scary.
King Yulho approached Elric and secretly told him.
“Correct appropriately. “These guys are full of idiots, so they take people’s word for granted.”
Elric nodded awkwardly, looking at him with a sour expression.
I thought it was quite naive in real life, but it seems like it was much worse 400 years ago.
[Now, even if there was no teacher, we really have to make one.]
The god of camellia, who still hadn’t left, looked shocked.
Then he clicked his tongue and mischievously asked Elric.
[A lie is a lie that grows bigger the more you tell it. How do you feel? If you were human too, you would feel a little sorry… !]
But Elric’s eyes were sparkling.
[If you do this well, you will be able to completely rip out the bone marrow.]
[You are not a person!]
Elric chuckled.
[It’s a joke. No matter how bad I am, I don’t bother people who are friendly towards me that much. I keep the line.]
If Sean had heard, he would have calmly made the sound of watering bubbles.
[Just a little. I will only leave out a very small amount.]
[…] How come when you say it, the joke doesn’t even sound like a joke?]
[well? Hehe.]
The God of Camellia had an expression on his face that he didn’t want to think about it any more.
[However, if you accept them as members just because they are like this, it means you are truly a fanatic.]
Elric did not miss the fact that there were still members who did not take their fierce gaze away from him.
“We are the opposite.”
People with long, mane-like black hair were glaring in this direction.
The long tail near the tailbone revealed their identity.
Heuklang tribe.
[They are the direct ancestors of Prime Minister Norus. I have it in my memory too. Because they were very enthusiastic kids. He was also King Yulho’s loyal dog. No, does that make it correct to call it a hunting dog?]
In the Antromorph tribe, they were the ones who held the largest share, excluding King Yulho.
In particular, the man with the fiercest face among them was growling as if he was going to bite Elric at any moment.
“Ralph. “Are you going to disobey me, the chieftain?”
Crrr!
King Yulho’s momentum was so strong that a low rumble came out, like a tiger meeting its enemy.
Not only the black wolf called Ralph but also other tribe members were shocked.
“Joe, Chief! That’s not what we mean… !”
“If not, what do you mean?”
“that is… !”
“You haven’t forgotten what our Antromorph identity was, have you? “Then I will personally twist your hair.”
Ralph’s complexion turned pale.
Antromorph identity. It was an ideal that united them despite their different clans and lineages… !
If they were stigmatized for denying it, they were as good as dead.
So, when I was about to say something.
“A den where people who were abandoned or driven out by all tribes gathered. Although they call themselves tribes, I heard that Antromorph’s goal is to break the boundaries of those tribes and unite all beastmen.”
Suddenly, Elric, who had been quietly listening to their conversation until now, opened his mouth.
The eyes of all the tribe members, including King Yulho and Ralph, naturally turned towards that direction.
King Yulho looked a little surprised.
“Did you know our beliefs?”
“I picked it up while wandering around the snowy fields. There is a group of rebels and criminals who had to leave the tribe due to various problems. “It is treated as a public item in many tribes, but I also heard that its popularity is increasing day by day.”
A smile spread across King Yulho’s lips.
Who wouldn’t like praising the tribe that he spent his entire life building?
Moreover, even though Elric was human, he understood exactly what he was pursuing.
“I was abandoned by humans, and was able to learn Gangseojutsu thanks to the grace of a teacher whose name I did not know. “The chief felt sorry for me and accepted me as a brother, so I think this is also an extension of the ideals the chief always pursues.”
[Huh! Perhaps it’s because he’s a Mervinger, but he’s really good at saying things.]
“Then I think I also have to live up to those expectations and prove myself worthy of being part of that ideal.”
King Yulho slipped backwards with an excited expression on his face. He thought that things would work out on their own without him having to stand by them anymore.
Ralph also seemed to think that King Yulho would no longer intervene, so he lost his life again.
The fangs were clearly visible between the lips that were wide open.
“Will you prove your qualifications? “What are you going to do?”
“The ranking of the beast people is determined by strength, right? So let’s have a fight. If I win, I become a member of the tribe, and if I lose, I leave on my own. how is it? call?”
“How dare a human like me, a fighter… !”
“You have a long tongue.”
Elric laughed out loud.
“why? “Are you scared?”
Wizard who swallowed talent
