Chapter 535 – Preparing for Honeymoon -3-

Now ──. Ssyuk──.

A reptile that crawled out of the sea, pushing the sand with its wide fins.

Roman looked at it blankly.

Perhaps because of the gentle energy, the atmosphere is overwhelmingly mysterious and non-threatening.

The turtle that was approaching with its belly down stopped at a distance.

He stared at Roman, who was sitting on the sandy beach, with black eyes that were as shiny as a checkerboard.

Probably waiting for action.

Roman began to organize in his mind everything that came into view.

‘···Turtle?! The Creator is a turtle?’

Of course, it is an unreasonable size to simply call it a turtle.

Even though there is a distance, it is so big that you have to look up from this side.

It is larger than the fish-type monster that threatens fishermen and ships in lakes and seas, and larger than the whale shark I saw at the Okinawa Aquarium in my past life.

It is clear that the round head alone is larger than Roman’s body, and the fins are flat and wide enough to lie down and sleep.

‘The Creator does not only have human form.’

If you think about it, the goddess also has a human appearance and wings with feathers, so perhaps this is natural.

I reflect on the rigid stereotypes I had.

‘There it is.’

Isn’t there a saying that the sea is the source and origin of life?

It feels like a very fitting place as it is an image of the creator in the form of a turtle staying.

Roman stopped watching and was polite enough to start a conversation.

“Honestly, I didn’t think you would let me in here. Thank you.”

– ···.

There is no answer.

My eyes blink very slowly. It takes a whole year to lower and raise your eyelids.

Did you understand what I said? I don’t even know if I was listening in the first place.

I’m not sure because there hasn’t been any response.

“My name is Roman.”

– ···.

“As I expressed my intention before entering, there is something I would like to ask for your understanding, so I came here to see you.”

– ···.

There is no change in the gesture itself, not the language. I don’t feel any special emotions from the gaze.

There is no response at all, so it feels like talking to a wall.

Nevertheless, Roman does not give up and raises his voice again.

“If it doesn’t make the Creator uncomfortable, may I continue explaining from now on?”

– ···.

It is so quiet that the sound of stepping on soft sand can be heard as noise.

How many times did the salty-smelling waves crash over the white sandy beach?

Roman was filled with anticipation as he saw the turtle’s snout slowly open.

‘Are you finally speaking?’

He makes a leisurely noise and then closes his mouth again.

Is this the problem with my own expectations?

“···.”

– ···.

At this point, it enters the category of serious consideration.

I wondered if it was impossible for me to communicate with the Creator in front of me.

‘Should I at least pick seaweed from the sea? Catch a jellyfish?’

Quirky hypotheses swirl in my head.

There is no hostility, but if you randomly approach someone who doesn’t respond, you become cautious lest they feel like a threat and get kicked out of your mind.

As I wait quietly, I feel a sense of urgency and urgency as there is a time difference between the two dimensions.

‘···Let’s wait for now.’

I felt like that was the only best thing here.

After making his decision, Roman suppressed his rising impatience and waited calmly while facing the round gaze of his creator.

Probably… No, probably more than 30 minutes.

Let Roman admire the sound of the waves and show patience reminiscent of a stone statue.

Only then did the Creator react, indicating that he had finished observing the guest who came to him in his image.

– A friendly smell, a soul. A sense of foreignness, the body.

“!!!”

It is not a sentence made up of voices and vocalizations, but an intangible doctor.

The meaning sent by the Creator appears in Roman’s mind like subtitles.

It’s one of the questions I expected.

As this is a situation we have been waiting for, we respond quickly and without hesitation.

“I heard that I was chosen from among the released souls and created. I am currently rooted in another world, but I remember living in Korea in my past life.”

– ···.

“Of course, I’m not here to argue or argue about that. I know that you prioritized efficiency to make the world flow comfortably.”

The Creator remained silent again after his previous expression.

Since you don’t answer, the person who can’t bear the awkwardness becomes more talkative.

Although it was just a one-time thing, there are expectations that things will progress since the intention has been shown.

“Creator. The reason I came here is because, as I said earlier, there is a matter I would like to receive permission for.”

– ···.

Am I being overly cautious in saying a single word?

Am I so annoyingly lazy that I don’t want to do anything?

Even though I am trying my best, I am so dull that it makes others feel angry.

It’s difficult to understand in detail, but unfortunately, it seems to be far from the timid nature that the goddess expected.

Contrary to Roman’s concerns about whether he would have to wait for a long time this time, the response came quickly, in less than a minute.

“···.”

Sigh─. Swoosh─.

By moving her stopped fins, she completely pulls out the bloated half of her body that was contained in the sea.

When Roman stretched out his hand, the Creator came within touching distance and still did not open his mouth, but announced with his mind his.

– Hyeonmu (玄武), Hyeoncheon Sangje (玄天上帝), North Pole Wooseongsingun (北極佑聖神君), Sangjegong (上帝公).

I am expressing my intention that all of those complex titles are what I call myself.

Since he is no longer Roman’s creator, he tells them to choose a separate title and use it.

Among them, the word Hyeonmu feels most familiar to Roman, but the other titles are so unfamiliar that he is hearing them for the first time.

“Then, I will call you Hyeonmu.”

– ···.

The head of a turtle, the size of a house, falls and rises like a stick.

Now clear gestures are starting to appear.

It’s very relaxing, but compared to the first time, the speed is like a light breeze, so I’m worried about motion sickness.

“As you can see, I am a hot-blooded brat who has just crossed the border.”

Gentle eyes sparkle with interest and tell you to continue.

“Therefore, in order to reach your goal, you must explore various directions and ways and seek help and understanding from various people.”

It was thought that this introduction was enough.

Knowing how strong a restraint a conversation with intention between transcendents can be, Roman began to select sentences and put them out.

The preface is about wanting to relieve the homesickness that women have been harboring for a long time by giving them a trip to modern times, which are no different from their hometowns.

It was explained that since there are many problems that need to be resolved at the level in which I am working, I am taking on the role of protecting the Creator, so I need permission from my companion.

Roman did not mention Pandemonium directly, but he honestly announced that he wanted to use it as a transit point to reach a certain dimension.

Naturally, there is a strong possibility that the audience will not take it well.

If you mix lies with a verbal promise, only Roman himself will suffer.

– ···.

An answer requires caution.

This time, I felt the turtle’s silence was appropriate.

‘The probability of being rejected is too high.’

No matter how much you think about it, that’s natural. Rejection is close to being confirmed, and even if permission is granted, there is a high probability that it will be laden with annoying restrictions and conditions.

So Roman was racking his brains, concentrating on ways to persuade them later.

– Possible, exorcism.

As I wait, the doctor gets stuck in my head. Roman suppressed the corners of his mouth from rising.

From this perspective, asking for something is more positive than saying no.

As we accept the information that Hyeonmu gives us through the gaps in our consciousness, knowledge naturally sees in.

The format was comically similar to a wanted badge.

Jangsanbeom, goblin, werewolf, virgin ghost, headless rider, red mask, tunnel demon, etc.

Urban legends that are passed down by word of mouth among the public and gain power and take on an unholy substance.

To Roman, who received the knowledge, the most surprising fact was nothing else.

‘No, ghosts are real?’

Because in my past life, I did not believe in spiritual beings.

But if you think about it the other way, I’m tired of the devil and hell is real, so what does it mean that there aren’t ghosts?

Didn’t you get tired of catching undead while living as an adventurer?

If you think about it, this is a type of thing.

“I understand. As you requested, if we run into each other, I will handle it cleanly instead of avoiding it.”

In addition, the soft conditions are mentioned again to make sure. It’s a good condition to ask for it when you see it, without having to go out looking for it.

Considering the level of these ghosts, they were not dangerous, so I accepted them.

If we had to look at the level of risk, it would fall between the low and middle levels that bronze or silver level adventurers equipped with weapons would deal with.

It is considered easy to use physical force, and there is a strong possibility that these evil spirits will scream and oxidize to ash the moment they encounter Atra.

But that also depends on the world.

There are certain life-threatening things for humans in the dimension ruled by Hyeonmu.

“···.”

Roman, who accepted the conditions that were nothing more than a taste, waited for the next time.

I guess I’m done poking around now because I thought there might be more annoying conditions.

– Heo Shi (許施).

“···?”

The turtle showed his approval by moving his fins and turning his body towards the sea.

And then it moves slowly to return to the water.

‘This simple? Is this the end?’

This feeling of a covenant being made based on the conversation just now and being engraved in the soul.

Not only Roman but also that turtle will feel it.

Either way, after finishing what he had to say, Hyeonmu does not look back.

Wow!

The huge body moves away, coolly cutting through the current.

“···.”

Perhaps it is because it is the beginning of creating oneself.

Roman has a vague feeling.

Isn’t the request to deal with the ghosts an ornament to give the minimum form to the contract between transcendental beings?

It feels vague.

But I don’t know why.

Did the abandoned and abandoned soul think that it needed to clear out its own karma by remembering its past life?

This is ultimately an area of ​​inference.

‘Whatever happens…’

It worked out well.

Preparations for a special honeymoon are over.
