Chapter 258 – 257. She Is Not Welcome (2)
What do you think really hits the nail on the head for parents?
If you ask parents, the rankings will vary, but if you have more than one child, there will be moments when the children fight among themselves.
The answer is that they are not just bickering, they are aiming for each other’s lives and fighting for their lives. And that too, in front of their parents.
At least Kim Hae-jin, he is both of them.
Clark.
And…
Christine
He did not give birth to these two with his own body.
Although the children were not conceived and born from his own seeds, he raised them with his heart and became their adoptive father through the affection he developed. Despite this, the two children are fighting for each other’s lives, and watching it happen.
And even Charles looking at it.
“…”
It’s horribly cruel.
What makes me watch this is also.
Watching this, I feel tremendous psychological aversion to the Demon Sultan who creates this situation.
But, the question is what to do…
I don’t know.
What do they really want by making them watch the children they raised fight among themselves and the children suffering?
Not only does neither side fight because they want to, but Christine fights as someone’s chess piece, and Clark fights to destroy it with all his might.
…
Demon Sultan.
Is she doing this to somehow screw over clever Clark?
I don’t know.
There have been times in my life when I have figured out what these bastards’ intentions are, but I can’t even figure out what a non-human being wants.
Because we do not know, we call it madness, and because we do not know, we call it fear.
And looking at Kim Hae-jin, who is just drinking and hoping for this painful scene to end, Charles asks:
“…Who do you think will win?”
“Demon Sultan.”
“…”
“What answer did you expect?”
Kim Hae-jin asks about Charles’ silence, and Charles remains silent. Kim Hae-jin’s expression looks like he’s about to cry.
This strong man is saddened as he watches the bloodshed of his children.
It was also deep, and there was even deep regret, and it was the appearance of a human being who was deeply cursing all of this and this world.
Even Alina, who was watching next to her, turned her head away, saying she couldn’t bear to look at her.
“…What does this mean?”
“There is no such thing as meaning, Alina.”
“…It’s meaningless, why? Let’s see who wins?”
Kim Hae-jin chuckled at Alina’s words.
Well, it is not unreasonable for her, the youngest, to clap her tongue at the horrors of this tragedy. She asks Charles once again.
“Do you think there will be a winner out there?”
“…Do you need a winner?”
“How could there be? There is nothing, no winners, no losers, nothing. It’s just full of madness.”
And look around.
It is full of hunting cats who have flocked here to somehow profit from this battle to their own taste.
Clark is fine.
Clark’s sister, Mira.
And to both Clark’s women and him, he is trustworthy.
The past week.
A lot happened while Christine brought that army of the dead here.
In the meantime, various information exchanges took place, and a [Watcher] Who is not disturbed by any signals is by Clark’s side.
And, several hunting cats will settle down and try to somehow find the [Rice cake] That falls on them.
Let’s use this current crisis as an opportunity.
…
Dirty bastards.
Some people are having a hard time, but are you using this as an opportunity?
Well, it could be because it’s someone else’s business.
If you look at it from afar, it’s a comedy, but if you look at it up close, it’s a tragedy.
Everyone has been like that since long ago.
So he bit the world.
It bit, and as a result, it killed both those who deserved to die and countless others who did not.
Even if you thought you had no choice but to do so, the guilt remains. The sin remains, and the karma remains.
Okay.
Does that mean that karma comes back like this?
Is it coming back towards me like this?
And as he looked at Kim Hae-jin cursing himself, Charles just remained silent.
He says he has nothing to say here.
The reason he was covered in blood was because he himself was involved. Even his own country, he had let it blow up. Because he made it take its last breath.
And, at the same time, he greets the [Guest] On behalf of Kim Hae-jin, who is paying attention to everything around him.
A woman with blonde hair, blue eyes, white skin, and silver eyes. A woman carving runes and appearing right in front of her.
Charles speaks to the woman.
“Get out, Jotun.”
“That’s too much. I haven’t even told you the details of the transaction yet, but are you treating the visiting customer poorly? There’s even alcohol made from honey here?”
A clicking sound is heard inside the leather pouch in her hand.
The woman whom Charles called [Jotun].
And when Kim Hae-jin sees that woman, she laughs and laughs at the Jotun.
“A bitch with a dog leash comes and bargains with a guy with a leash on his dog. There’s no such thing as a shitty thing like this. Ah, Odin’s sworn sister. But, the idiot Jotun with a leash on Odin, here’s Clark. “I was trying to deal with Dawn Bringer’s adoptive father… And was horribly torn to pieces.”
“…!?”
And as soon as she finished speaking, her gigantic teeth tore through her dimension and swept past her.
However, she managed to escape, and her thorns stretched out where she escaped, as if waiting for her to get there.
“… I guess. Well, I don’t intend to kill you. Don’t ask me how I knew your radius of action… And your method of action. After all, if you can’t catch it, the answer is to throw a net where you can catch it, right? Isn’t it a fish? “A [Fool] Caught in a net he made while transforming.”
There is embarrassment in the eyes of the Jotun woman who called Kim Hae-jin an idiot. She was understandably caught by the wrong person who made her feel very unpleasant.
And not even Charles could sense what he had just done, and Kim Hae-jin was giggling and laughing, showing off her shattered body, with one side of her face shattered, and the grotesque sight of her regenerating again, and speaking towards the Jotun.
“[Loki Laufeyarsson]… Laufey’s son? Well, it doesn’t matter whether you are a son or a daughter.”
It’s been a year since I was transformed into a mare and got stabbed by a horse. Does that have any meaning, whether I’m a man or a woman?
However, it was Sleipnir that was born.
It’s a really interesting story in many ways, and I know a lot about it as I’ve used it in many ways.
The only books I read when I was bored were stories about them.
“I’m in a very unpleasant mood right now, and I don’t want to listen to any of the shit you say… And, it’s obvious what the other guys are doing. You’re not getting anything out of this.”
Rocky.
Odin’s eldest sibling.
Odin, Thor, Loki.
I have already encountered two of the highest dignity of the Æsir.
Thor loses strength after facing Jupiter repeatedly, and when he finally comes, he is blown away by Machina, and then Loki comes.
Facing mythical beings, it would have been fascinating in the past, but to Kim Hae-jin facing tragedy, each and every one of them is just a bunch of bastards.
Loki opens his mouth.
Because the purpose for which I came must be achieved.
“…The Supreme God wants your cooperation.”
“Yeah, go away. Unless you all want to die by my hands.”
“Your son will be sad?”
“Well, no matter how I die, he’s already prepared. Oh, even if you die from me, he’ll probably ruin you guys even more.”
That guy is that kind of guy.
He can do that, and he will be in a position to do that.
That is the future set by the Demon Sultan, and no matter what you do, you cannot change it. Even if he twists the direction, the fact that he sits in that position will never change.
“…The Supreme God says that guy will cause chaos in the world.”
That’s why we need to stop it. Trying to convince his father, but-
“Ah, what you guys are causing is probably justified. It doesn’t matter.”
What has already caused even more chaos in this world are the idiots who are arbitrarily taking over the world where others lived.
Well, if you guys are right, then you are right. Only in your head.
Loki shouted at Kim Hae-jin, who was laughing at her like that.
“…Finally, you are the one in this worldDebt committedPay back.”
“…”
“Odin’s words.”
Lastly, it’s a bonus to add that [Odin] Did it because he didn’t want to die.
And Kim Hae-jin also seems quite annoyed, looking back at Loki and giggling.
There was a story that Charles once heard.
If a Korean person has a firm expression, things are going well.
However, if a Korean person smiles, something is going wrong.
Naturally, he’s pissed as hell right now.
“I don’t owe you anything. Everything in the world, everything in my life. Everything. If I get up from this place, you’re all going to die. Thor? I could show you how many strands that muscle pig’s muscles can break down. Dammit. “Go away.”
“…Tsk. I can’t help it.”
So Loki steps back.
If I say any more, they won’t listen, and it will only cause more harm to the beehive.
“But keep in mind that I can also go to your adopted children.”
“If you want to go, go. If you can make it back alive. You know there’s a bitch up there watching you right now, right?”
“…”
Shubniguras.
It’s almost strange that that monster doesn’t cause trouble, but it’s all good.
I don’t know the details, but one thing is for sure…
If you fuss any more here and now, you will die.
Hugin, Munin-
These two crows are staring at you, but if you don’t want to take action yourself, don’t talk nonsense.
…
The kid who tore all his children to pieces and put them to death because they were subordinates to the [Monster], And even put shackles on his own body, is openly telling me to die?
Fuck you.
Just like that, Loki disappeared with her quick steps, and looking at the direction in which she disappeared, Charles asks Kim Hae-jin.
“Is that okay?”
“…I’m telling you something. Fucking things are mutual exchanges. Even if I die soon, I don’t pretend to be weak.”
“…”
Okay.
This guy was such a crazy guy.
That’s probably why he did such a thing even with half of his face blown off and a body with third-degree burns.
Focus on the fight.
There will already be Asgardians, Aesir gods and Vanir here and there, but at least you won’t get anything from Clark’s acquaintances.
Okay.
Nothing.
Warrior party.
Charles has also seen many stories about hero parties.
Tank, attacker, and long-distance dealer. And the demon lord Cassandra became gigantic thanks to the spell caster’s fantastic chemistry.
No, Christine.
The god of slaughter, he becomes Kaedes’ puppet and wields a huge sword.
Looking at the data, it is stronger than what Clark faced in the past, and its attack power, durability, and speed are faster and more powerful.
I heard that Clark used a magic shield to protect the party members while vomiting blood, and that it was extremely risky.
Of course, even now, each blow is a threat, and breaking a shield is one thing, but despite this, there is no significant change in Clark’s expression.
“Hector, back, Gawain – wait, Arash, suppressive fire.”
He simply continues to cool-headedly restrict his actions in accordance with the opponent’s actions, and Arash’s storm-like fire hits the ground.
…Well, it can’t be the same as back then.
Above all, Clark has become stronger than before, he has all his party members, and he is normal.
There is no Carf Troller sent to die in the first place.
What’s even scarier is that Charles thought the elf archer was an assassin.
…
It’s just that fate was cruel to Clark from the beginning.
Okay.
It’s just that he sent that idiot to die to catch the Demon King, but when he came back alive and well, what would he think when he saw the look on Queen Canf’s face?
But Clark’s expression doesn’t look so good.
That’s probably because the party members are not in good condition due to the energy spreading widely around them. Ignorance of phenomena I see for the first time, energy I see for the first time, and unknown beings I encounter for the first time. All of that combined is troubling the party.
Of course, it’s the same with Christine who didn’t land a single effective hit, but while a minister named Kaedes is providing backup behind the scenes, Clark is in a situation where he has to provide backup for his party members without receiving backup from anyone.
What are you going to do, Clark?
Are you going to solve everything?
Or not-
Are you going to trust everyone and eventually lose everyone?
You are doomed.
Demon Sultan continues to see this situation through Kim Hae-jin’s eyes.
In order to create the [Successor] He wants.
The direction… Is going astray.
I can’t do this.
…
I keep saying it in my head over and over again.
I don’t know what the different direction is.
Clark, what are you going to do?
In this situation, how do you…
Are you going to avoid this old woman’s trap?
