Chapter 84 – 84.Praton, the Holy Water of Water (6)
The jewel on Praton’s forehead broke and fell down.
Fraton did not move and stood still.
In the meantime, the chant disappeared and the hand of resentment also disappeared with time.
“What? Did you win?”
“The movement of the holy water has stopped.”
“Is it because Sihan broke the jewel?”
“Uh, uh, what happened?”
“We must not let our guard down.”
It was a time when everyone was on alert, stopping and looking at Fraton.
[Thank you.]
At the same time as a voice rings in my head.
In a flash, intense light erupted from Praton’s entire body.
“Ugh!”
“Ugh!”
“”Aaaaah!””
As the light faded, Praton appeared, without the jewel on his forehead and giving off a divine aura.
It was the same scene in the game when he escaped from corruption and regained his original form.
However, there is a difference.
[Thank you, humans, for liberating me from the power of chaos.]
The point is that Fraton directly conveys his will in an easy-to-understand way.
‘You can talk?’
For me, it was a shocking development.
Basically, saints do not speak.
All I had to do was look like an animal and make gestures, and the characters roughly figured out the meaning and explained that it must mean something like this.
But now, Fraton was conveying his will with a telepathic feel.
Plus, he has a really nice voice.
“Holy water of water… Praton.”
[You are the child who carries on Raden’s blood.]
Fraton turned his head to Adelia.
“… ! Yes, that’s right.”
[It is fate that I will receive help from Raden’s child.]
“Praton, the Holy Beast of Water! I want to ask you something. Why did you go berserk? Is the Chaos Church involved as expected?”
[Yes, you must be curious. Don’t talk about it. But I don’t really know anything either.]
In a calm, gentle voice, Fraton told the story of how he went on a rampage.
It is said that while we were resting in this space as usual, the space suddenly opened just as we entered, and assassins from the Chaos Church attacked the Holy Water.
It is said that because they were so sudden and possessed unusual skills, even the Holy Beast of Water was unable to properly counterattack and ended up with an engraved stone of chaos stuck in their foreheads.
[My memories after that are vague. My mind was being eaten away by the power of chaos. However, I only remember that I spread the power of chaos on the monsters and corrupted them further. It is deplorable.]
“The Fall…”
“I guess they call runaway corruption corruption.”
[Once again, I express my gratitude to you, humans, for freeing me from the power of chaos. Especially the one who destroyed the chaos that was consuming me.]
“I caused quite a bit of damage in the process… But is that okay?”
[Of course. It would be better for it to disappear from existence than to be swallowed up by chaos and remain corrupted.]
The holy water had its own pride.
[I will give you this as a token of gratitude.]
A lump of light appeared in front of Fraton and floated in front of me.
[Take it.]
When I held out my hand, the light disappeared and a blue drop-shaped gem fell out.
It was the essence of water that existed as a material drop item in the game.
“This is…”
[It is the essence of my power. Please use it usefully.]
“Okay.”
As a bonus, let’s put the cut part to good use.
[And I have one more favor to ask of you.]
“A favor?”
In the game, the game concludes with the water leaving the space and showing a spectacular performance by jumping out of the temple and jumping through the air.
But please do me a favor.
‘How on earth is it going?’
[I can feel my mind becoming clearer. There is still a Chaos Church within this temple.]
“Is that really true? Where on earth are the Chaos Cultists!”
[It is a different space from this space. Come here, child of Raden.]
“I understand.”
Adelia hurriedly approached Fraton.
[The Chaos Church is in the temple. To be exact, the Chaos Church is hiding in another space similar to this space. This space was created by combining my efforts and the efforts of the Laden children. I don’t know why they created a space similar to this. But… I can feel the strong energy of chaos in that differently created space.]
“That’s impossible! The Chaos Church is using the space created by the Raden royal family and the Holy Water Water…!”
Adelia clenched her fists in anger.
“I can never forgive you!”
The Chaos Church involved in the death of the older sister is using technology related to the royal family to do strange things.
That fact seemed to be making Adelia angry.
But there was something more bothersome to me than seeing Adelia getting angry.
‘A space created by joining forces with the royal family? This is my first time hearing such a setting. But if that’s true…’
[Child of Raden, touch my body. Use the power of the blood in your body and my power to create a door leading to the space created by the Chaos Cult. Please go there and destroy the Chaos Church. I also help.]
“It is an honor to defeat the Chaos Church together with the Holy Beast of Water! Then… “
“Wait, Adelia.”
Adelia, who was about to touch Praton’s body, was stopped.
“Why are you doing this, Sihan? Quickly, quickly get rid of the Chaos Church that played a trick on the Holy Beast of Water… !”
“I agree with that. But there is something to do first.”
“Is this something that needs to be done? What’s left… Ah.”
Adelia paused for a moment, then looked like she understood and said,
“I see. We have just finished a fight with the Holy Beast of Water who was on a rampage just now. No matter how urgent we are, if we move hastily, it could actually cause harm to us. Holy Beast of Water, I am sorry, but please wait for a moment before opening the door…”
“That’s not it.”
“No?”
Of course, magic power was consumed while dealing with the holy water of water, but it can be immediately recovered with a mana potion.
Thanks to the protection, I didn’t get hurt in the first place, and I, who ran around the most, still have some stamina left.
The reason I stopped Adelia.
“You have to pack what you need right away. Freshness is important.”
This is the recovery of the body of the Holy Water of Water that was abandoned after being separated from the fighting.
As I was approaching Pamela, Yeonhwa, and Gyeonghu, I placed the left front leg of the first prato I cut off and the body below the neck of the praton lying near the three people in my inventory.
“Sihan… ! If you do something like that in front of the Holy Beast of Water… !”
“Ah, Mr. Sihan… !”
Adelia looked at me and Praton in turn, shedding a cold sweat.
Pamela, who was embarrassed as if she had sensed Adelia’s worry her her, also returned to her her old title her her her her.
Atsbal, Yeonhwa, and Gyeonghu were quietly watching the situation, not paying any attention.
I confidently walked towards Fraton and said.
“Of course I can take it, right?”
[Of course. My body obtained while fighting with me who was being swayed by the power of chaos. Feel free to use it however you want.]
“W-Holy Beast of Water!? Are you okay?”
[I have also been watching humans for a long time. I understand their habits, lifestyle, and culture. Anyway, my body is fine now. If it helps those who saved me, such as my severed body, feel free to use it.]
The holy water of water was a holy water that people could talk about well.
If possible, I would like to cut off the horn and receive it, but I don’t think it’s something to say in this situation.
Let’s aim for the next opportunity.
“Wow, Seongsu knows something.”
“But Mr. Sihan, who proudly collects the loot in front of Seongsu, is also very bold.”
“I’m just asserting the obvious. It won’t be a problem if we all move right away, right?”
First, as a leader, I asked the members’ opinions.
“Gwae, it’s okay.”
“I’m not tired like this! I’ve recently become a man who works out!”
“There’s no problem for me either. Gyeonghu is okay too, right?”
“Of course, Lady Yeonhwa.”
“Okay. Then Adelia, let’s leave right away.”
“Yes!”
Adelia was excited about being able to deal with the Chaos Cult right away, and she touched Praton’s body.
Then, Praton’s horn began to glow.
[Then I will open the door.]
A wide, square door that looked like a portal emerged from within the blue space.
“We don’t know how many enemies there will be, so we’ll go all at once. Yeonhwa, please replenish the protection department.”
“I understand! Protection Department!”
When I finished preparing and was about to enter, a quest window appeared in front of me.
[Destroy the Monument of Chaos to reduce the power of the Demon Lord of Chaos.]
[Reward: 18 points, reputation 10, rare item box
‘Huh.’
Hidden elements that are different from existing games.
A quest has been opened to weaken the final boss, the Demon King of Chaos.
Since I am now familiar with the results when I fail, I am not particularly impressed.
Rather, they give me two rare item boxes that I haven’t seen in a long time.
‘You’re giving me 18 points?’
Even the field boss, Fallen Rock Kong, was worth 15 points, but the reward of 18 points surprised me.
I couldn’t help but expect that completing the quest wouldn’t be that easy.
But you can’t back down.
I passed through the open door with everyone.
And before our eyes is a different space than the space where we fought with Platon.
A space colored in gray rather than blue unfolded.
In the center of the space, there was a tombstone emitting dark red energy, which can be said to be the main color of the Demon King of Chaos.
Standing in front of her was a woman with white hair, a ponytail, a short skirt, and a sword on her right waist.
[It’s an ominous energy. I can feel the power of the Demon Lord of Chaos strongly from there. But that guy…]
“You are a member of the Chaos Church! I cannot forgive you! I will punish you in the name of the Raden royal family!”
“Ah, Adelia!”
Adelia drew her sword and ran towards the woman.
“Sword of destruction!”
But Adelia uses her her skills her her right away and attacks the woman.
Kaaaaang!
The woman turned around in an instant and drew her sword her, easily blocking Adelia’s sword her her her.
The woman’s face was covered with a mask that covered her entire face.
A large red circle on a white background. There was a small circle inside it, and eight lines zigzag between the large circle and the small circle.
The Chaos Gate, the symbol of the Demon Lord of Chaos believed in by the Chaos Church, was engraved.
I was surprised and embarrassed when I saw the woman.
Because.
‘Why are you here?’
Because the opponent was a character who appeared in a special interlude event after the end of chapter 3 of the main story and before moving on to chapter 4.
