Chapter 366 – Legacy of Order.
A voice that seemed to crawl up and scrape down the wall from the bottom of that cavity. It was a strange echo that did not feel like it belonged to the same person even though it was clearly intelligible. Kane stood still with his sword in his hand, perhaps trying to see what was going on. Usher couldn’t comprehend the situation, but she held her breath lest her voice be heard by him.
“You don’t have to be afraid. We welcome you.”
Since they didn’t answer, there was no hostility in the voice that came back. On the contrary, he was embarrassed by the apparent goodwill that greeted him. Even so, I couldn’t open my mouth easily at the man’s voice that resounded as he scratched in this heterogeneous space and the shadow with his arms outstretched reflected in the ghastly shimmering fire.
“…”
As he did not respond to his words this time and kept silent, the shadow with its arms open slowly lowered its arms. At the same time, the sound of something hard and light hitting each other was heard, and the shadow’s head tilted.
“I see. Are you still maintaining your sanity?”
I couldn’t figure out what the mutterings that followed, close to monologues, were talking about.
“Hmm, that’s not bad. Rather, it should be easier.”
What makes it easier?
“Grunt!”
“Oohhh!”
“Aww!!”
Even now, under the cavity where he was standing, I could hear someone’s scream, the sound of flesh and bone breaking along with the sound of fighting over the people they threw.
“Well, if you saw this for the first time, you would be surprised.
Even so, the clear man’s voice embraced mercy as if it had become the voice of a saint.
“But don’t you think it’s strange? Why are these monsters following us and not attacking you?”
From one to ten, there was nothing unusual about this place. It was bizarre that he, one of them, would say such a thing, but the strangest thing was that he did what he said.
‘Can’t you tame monsters?’
I once asked Donard. Wouldn’t it be possible to tame monsters? At first glance, I thought it was impossible, but it was still in the form of an animal, so I asked just in case.
‘It’s not that there aren’t people who have tried that, but they all failed.’
He said that if there was someone who had tamed even one monster, he would have left a mark in history, and there was no such person until now.
‘And he wants to kill one more human, even if he dies, is a monster. I can’t tame it.’
Nevertheless, the owner of the shadow that shimmered along the flame was taming the monster.
“Now, take a closer look at her. Don’t you think there’s something familiar about her?”
What are you used to? No matter how much he looked at it, Usher couldn’t feel the slightest sense of intimacy with this monster. At first glance, it only took the form of a human being, but that figure was far from a human being, even if it was far away.
“Grrrrung.”
“…!”
Even this monster clung to him even more, wondering where he liked it. It was a time when the touch of his rough, cold skin gave him goosebumps and shuddered even against the flesh that pressed against his body.
“You still don’t know what’s strange?”
If it’s strange, isn’t it still overflowing?
“Or do you not want to believe it?”
I realized when I wanted to ask what nonsense you were talking about. Above the head of this swollen and tangled monster, flinching at first glance. At first, I couldn’t even think of what it was, but when I was surprised by the slightly revealed form.
“That she is of your kind?”
“Heo-eok… Eup!”
Usher sighed and covered her mouth himself, but it was already enough to make the cavity resonate.
“Hehe, it’s hard to believe, but it’s true.
Fortunately, he didn’t seem to care. Rather, the sound of a satisfied laugh reached my ears.
“Sado, the time…”
“Yes, I’m glad you delayed the ceremony a little longer.”
When someone talked to him, the sound of a large stone rolling and clattering along with the sound of walking began to fade away. It was as small as that, but his voice came again.
“I hope to see you before you become like them.”
Just so I can remember Before long, the shimmering light on the other side of the cavity disappeared and darkness came along with the sound of something rolling and closing.
“”…””
Still, they were silent for a while. Usher wondered if he was really sure what he was thinking.
“Grrruk!”
“Greung.”
Down there, I could hear the sound of someone dragging something up.
“Cow.”
“Ugh! Stop clinging to me.”
It was a time when he was not sure what to do with a situation where monsters, or maybe other beings, kept clinging to him.
“Kreurreuk!”
The voice he heard at the moment was clearly hostile, so Usher stiffened.
“Kyaaaaak!”
Perhaps it was because she was so close to him, she was acutely aware of this and could tell that she was moving away from him and was wary of her voice.
– Hwareuk!
The space brightens as Kane lights a fire in his hand.
“Kyaaak!”
“Creep.”
“Ugh.”
Usher frowned at the new figure revealed at the same time. Likewise, the pale skin, the face of which the strangely grown flesh had melted and clumped together, leaving only the nose and mouth, was certainly no different from the guy he had encountered on the way here, but his bulging muscles made him look even bigger.
However, the problem is the fishy smell of metal that hits the nose and seems to block it. That’s because he was approaching with his sharp teeth firmly biting a woman’s neck. The dripping of her blood and the unusually bent shape of her neck had already taught her that she was not alive. Because of this, Usher thought that she might have been mistaken.
“Grrrr!”
“Kk.”
Looking at them, they seemed to be talking about something, and soon, as if the guy withdrew his hostility, the twitching muscles were gradually diminishing, which was clearly visible under the pale skin.
– Iron puck!
Then, walking up to Kane and putting down the body of her woman he was biting on, Usher’s eyes widened at her actions.
“Kreuk.”
He knelt down on his knees, clasped his hands together, and bowed her head to Kane. It was definitely a prayer. He didn’t know how to act like a follower, so let’s just watch.
“Kirung!”
At the same time, the guy who had been rubbing his body against Usher also came closer and took him by the hand as if to follow him, didn’t he?
“Huh? Huh?”
The place where Usher was dragged without even thinking of resisting was right in front of Kane. She likewise knelt down in the same manner following the one who had prayed first. So even though I was watching them blankly, they sat quietly without paying attention. Like really praying.
“Now I get it.”
Then Kane opened her mouth.
“Which one?”
“Why didn’t the guy who ran into us earlier attack us?”
When Usher asked, unable to contain his curiosity, he continued obediently.
“It must be because I smell similar to them. It seems that it is not a day or two that I do this kind of thing.”
He looked at the fire Kane had lit in her hand and thought it must be if the unknown shadow from earlier used fire often.
“But I’m not sure about your case. Any guesses?”
“I don’t know…”
Usher glanced at her and saw her praying beside her own. She still feels disturbed by her humanoid form, but at first glance frowns at her breasts reflected in the light of her flame and turns her head away, this time the naked body of a dead woman enters her eyes and gives her goosebumps. I saw a blank wall.
“Kreurreuk!”
Blah blah! Hot! With the sound of the guys moving, he heard the sound of something being torn apart, and involuntarily turned his head to see where the sound came from, and Usher froze.
– Jjiik! Smack!
As if the guys had finished praying for her, they buried their faces in the body of the woman in front of them and poked her deeply with their hands. Just like animals eat the meat they hunt. It was belatedly realized that the sound coming from under the cavity was the sound of tearing a person’s skin, muscles and organs.
Blood spurts everywhere, but the guys don’t care and bury her face in her stomach and eat her. For some reason, I didn’t attack them, but it was a time when I forgot to breathe in their brutal appearance.
– Cheeky!
“Ugh?!”
Usher was startled by something thrown in front of him and snapped him on the buttock. It was something red and shiny, yet soft like jelly. She couldn’t tell what it was at first glance, but the smell of metal stinging her nose and blood staining the floor indicated that it had come from the corpse of her woman.
Above all, there were obviously bite marks. Just looking at it, something iron and different was thrown in front of him. It was also her lady’s breast. Kane opened his mouth again as his body trembled at the sight of her flesh sticking to her marks as if it had been roughly ripped off with his teeth.
“I don’t know why, but she seems to have accepted you as a child.”
“Baby, you say?”
“Kaeung!”
When Usher stared at her, she looked where she was, as if checking his figure, even though she wouldn’t have her eyes. Because of her, Usher was making a grotesque expression on her indescribable senses, so the sound of Kane’s voice was enough to make her head go white.
“Are these Cattsy after all?”
“…I beg your pardon?”
I couldn’t believe it, but it turned out that what he was thinking might be the truth.
