Chapter 1153 – Confrontation

Strange guess.

Feeling strange, I looked up at the other side of the sky again.

Beyond the fragments of the fragmented gods.

Very high and far.

Numerous dimensional gaps hanging in the far reach of the blue sky.

The world tree was pointing his finger at the sky while looking over there, but there was no way he could confirm that. It’s similar to how an innumerable procession of ants passes by, and even if I point to the 52nd ant from the left, Copson next to me can’t pinpoint it.

It’s worse than that.

Anyway, that gap that is said to be above me.

“…”

Fuck that, isn’t that the gap I fell over?

“Are you saying that gaps like that have been popping up lately?”
“Yes. Numerous. Gaps. Continued. They are being created.”

This is a recent gap.

And in a place where the influence of the world tree is not affected, the lich is frantically digging through the dimensional gap.

I don’t know the purpose, but it seems clear that he’s doing it.

Did I come to this world because of the gap that the real lich pierced? This was a very leapfrog idea, but if you think it’s plausible, you’ll get it again.

I came here because of Richie’s chaos.

Kill Valkyrie to gain the power of a demigod, come here and confirm the culprit… I’m not sure if it’s true, but it was a rather ironic story.

“World Tree. So, are you sure that outside beings are coming over to this land by using that gap?”
“Yes.”
“Then, where does the existence that passed through that gap go?”

The dimensional rift seemed to be located beyond the celestial space. If a being crosses the gap, wouldn’t it just fall into that heavenly space?

—Sue.

At my words, the World Tree shook its head.

“That. Just. To show you. The things that are there.”
“Ah.”

It’s there to show off.

Is it World Tree’s ability?

“Corresponding on the ground. Their exact location is unknown. But one thing is certain: they are open. They come over.”
“Understand.”

It is certain that there is only a gap.

“The purpose of that existence. Dimension perforation. I don’t know. Of course. Not only that particular existence. It could be that the dimension perforation occurred. As a result of other factors. There is only one reason. That there is .It won’t be.”

Talking is fucking stuttering.

“Yes.”

I got a little bit of understanding though.

First.

It seems certain that the lich has opened many gaps in that dimension.

But not 100% everything.

The dimension won’t always be stable, and there’s a chance that this guy or that guy will accidentally break through something. And there will be a feeling of some kind of natural disaster.

“But. About 80 percent. In a similar way. A gap opened.”

That 80% is a lich.

“What about the other 20%?”
“Not recently. Things that happened a long time ago.”

At least the recent gaps are what Richie did.

“…”

The mind becomes calm.

Gradually, I am beginning to be convinced that I came to this world because of this little Richie.

Then.

Was it mere coincidence that I came here? Did I accidentally flow in because of the gap that had been drilled at random?

There is a possibility.

However.

“Fuck it.”

I recalled an old memory that I hadn’t thought about at all recently. It was a memory of language. The more I think about it, the more I am surprised, but I can speak the language of another world freely.

There is…Something.

I don’t know what the purpose of the lich is opening the dimensional rift, but it seems clear that he’s just opening the rift like this because there’s definitely something there.

The things that flow in from such an open dimension.

They are all things that can be said to be beings from another world.

“Ah.”

Maybe we need to communicate…?

Did you do something trick while breaking through the dimensional rift? Even if they call on the existence of the other world, it is useless if they cannot communicate. So what if you did something to make communication possible?

I don’t think Richie can even do that.

“This…”

That’s too far-fetched of an idea.

I may have thought too much.

However, it seems credible that the purpose of the lich was to summon a being from another world. In the process, various monsters came over by chance, and I could have come here.

Okay.

You can think of it like this.

Be sure to ask the lich when you catch and kill this bastard.

“Anyway, World Tree. That existence is widening a gap in the dimension. That’s what makes it difficult. If something like this keeps happening, unknown things from the other world will keep coming over.”
“Yes.”

At my words, Se Ge-soo nodded.

Even the gods must be concerned.
Especially if it’s in such a fragmented state.

“As I already said, I will stop it.”

It’s something you have to do anyway.

Richie who fucks up the land me and my women and my children will live on will never forgive me. Serve for free Well, it might feel that way. This is something you should definitely do.

If I don’t stop, who will stop this? And even if I turn my head and say it’s not my business, I’m the one who sees blood in the end.

Whatever it is, I’ll take care of it all.

It’s because you just have to kill the lich.

Of course, it wasn’t something that I, who possessed the power of the Heavenly Demon, couldn’t do.

Still.

“But it is.”

There must be something

Rewards are important.

“The fact that the World Tree is expecting that from me right now is because I have similar powers to the World Tree and those fragmented gods over there. Isn’t it?”

The World Tree stared blankly at me.

“…Yes.”

I answered.

“I knew you had that power ever since you entered the ministry. Therefore, I look forward to it.”
“Yes.”

Killing Valkyrie made the snowball roll a little too big.

“But my strength is still a bit feeble. I can’t say it’s perfect. It’s just a small piece. So I hope I get a price.”

I offered Se Gesu a fair deal here.

That you are expecting me.

In other words, this means only I know.

I don’t know why, but it was none other than the world tree that didn’t inform the elves of this important fact. It is assumed that there are some limitations. It becomes proof that I am the only one who met all the conditions to lift the restriction.

If that’s the case, there’s no problem even if you make a deal.

“Sap. I will give you.”
“You mean the sap?”

The sap of the World Tree…?

Fuck this

You look so damn good

“It sounds good just by hearing the name.”

This is a windfall, damn it.
Okay. If you receive the sap of the World Tree as a down payment.

“Is there any other help other than that?”
“A place where my influence does not reach. The location of the existence that widens the gap. I cannot tell you. I cannot.”
“I know.”

The location of the lich is unknown even in the world capital.

“But. A way to strengthen that power.”
“Strength?”

Divinity?

“The West. You guys say. The god of the dwarves. There is a piece of it.”
“Uh!”
“Southwest. In that huge desert you speak of. There are fragments that have fallen. There are fragments that are active.”
“What!”

I hope this!

“If you absorb them.”

Fragments of God…!
Can you tell me where they are?
Means to strengthen my power!

“Strength. I can strengthen it. I guess.”
“Oh oh!!!”

Calling Ami, this was the most welcome sound I’ve ever heard!!! A chance to strengthen this demigod power! Okay! He’s doing a fucking big job, but shouldn’t he give me a clue like this!!!

How heroic!

“On the ground. Having descended. Destroyed. Small pieces. They escaped from the heavens. But they have power. Retrieve them. Then. Strengthen the power. You should be able to.”
“All right!!!”

If only that…!

“Ah.”

By the way.

“I don’t know where it is.”
“Even me. I don’t know the details. I can help… Maybe.”

Great.

The thing about that location is that it’s meant to help.

“Now. There is no time.”
“Annit! No time!”

We did talk a lot!
Let’s ask a few more important things before we go!

“This is speculation, but.”

But the World Tree continued.

“That being. Opens a rift in the dimension. It seems to be looking for something.”
“…”
“Maybe it is.”

I listened to it once.
The words of the World Tree are very important.

“Maybe it’s God.”

God.

“You mean the lich is looking for God?”

Searching for God while opening a dimensional rift?

“…”

He closed his eyes, adding that the world tree was only speculation. Is it time now? If so, last.

“World Tree. I’m asking this because I’m really curious.”
“…”
“Verde floating in the sky, including the World Tree. Eisermart. Ezatsu.”

I’ve always wondered about this.

“What are they all about? Why do they give power to humans? What are they doing over there? And where did they come from?”

Prince of Titan.

The bastard said that in the old days, humans were their slave race, and he founded an empire. However, they were cursed by the gods and screwed up, and in the end they handed over their hegemony to humans.

He said so

But then, I remember him saying something meaningful that humans had summoned the gods of the outer dimension. It was a very suspicious word.

So very significant.

And what about elves?
What about the history of elves living longer than humans?

“What I can tell you is limited.”
“Ah.”
“But if you increase that power.”

Is that after all

“You will find out.”

Right.

ㅡSuch.

Moment. As my consciousness faded away, I was overcome by the feeling that my body was falling somewhere. The sky recedes and the scenery of the forest disappears. I felt floating, like someone who had fallen into an endless hole.

*           *

“Lehu?”

When I opened my eyes, I was in the gap of the world tree.

The scenery I saw before entering the spirit world.
Now I have returned to the real world from there.

“You’re back.”

Move your body quickly to check if there is anything abnormal. It’s the first time I’ve experienced something like this, so there may be something wrong. After unfolding the Wild Blood Corn, which requires simple combat moves and careful control, check the mana and strength in the body while stretching to identify any abnormalities.

—- I’m fine.

Nothing got weird.

It’s the same as when I came here.
There is no problem with the body.

It’s such a shame to go to the world of the gods. As expected, such a place was nothing to this Heavenly Demon Hero Kim Katt. If criminals go to such a space, they will not be able to accept reality and go crazy. However, with great mental powers, I properly saw everything there and witnessed the truth.

“…”

Anyway, I don’t know how much time has passed.

I can’t tell the time outside because the light isn’t coming from somewhere. It seemed like less than an hour had passed since he talked to the World Tree.

“From now on.”

I’m going to be a little busy.

“Okay.”

I never dreamed I would see things like this until I came to the Elven Forest. Reception with the World Tree. I didn’t even think it was such a big thing.

I found out some really great things.

There is a high probability that I am the only one among humans who knows this.

Who else knows about this?
And who else would have witnessed the heavenly space?

Even Cadia, who was revered as a saint, did not know what state Verde was in. It would be the same for the pope. In other words, these are things that only I know now.

“The gods are broken.”

Fuck.

Can I tell Cadia about this?

I can honestly tell all my girls. There’s no reason not to share these things, and there’s no reason they can’t handle the truth.

But isn’t Cadia’s situation a bit different?

Cadia is a saint of the Brass Holy Angel Society.

To Cadia… Of course, God Verde is not dead. She is in a state of floating in the heavenly space with the gods of the religions that humans believe in, but they are not far behind even if they have a spear.

Right now, Verde is giving holy power to the Paladins.

They are clearly alive and having an impact.

I don’t know why he wants to give power to humans even in such a state.

Anyway, it’s not a very pleasant story that the god Cadia has believed in all her life her is that shape.

“Hmm.”
