Chapter 1515 – [Soul Chicken Soup for Souls]

Gluttonous Gulia has reached Buddhahood.

I don’t know the last one, but at least the people who came after smelling the soul’s chicken soup for the souls made by Eden saw the sight of the gluttonous Gulia melting away. Very few have ever seen the original boy who has become close to the soul, but they have seen a part of the Four Heavenly Kings disappear anyway.

Thanks to that, the people who knew that the Four Heavenly Kings had fallen, cheered and rejoiced.

“Gulia is dead!!!!”

“Long live the hero!!!! Long live the goddess Morrian!!!!”

“Now all that’s left is the Demon King!!!! Ahahahahahaha!!!!”

In fact, there was a night gun of guile. However, since he cannot be easily found even in the Gaia Records, it is no different from the existence of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Allied morale soared to the sky. If there were no Four Heavenly Kings, the power of the Demon King would be no different from giving it half.

On the other hand, saying that it was the same as giving it in half meant that the power of the demon king was at least the same as all the four heavenly kings put together, but they deliberately didn’t say it. Despair doesn’t have to come out of your mouth for nothing.

“It’s very fortunate that one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Gulia the Gluttony, went like that. Thanks to that, not a single victim came out here, right?”

“There are still some small fish left.”

“Hundreds and thousands won’t die to deal with them. At most, there will be only a few. For those of us who have decided to go to war, that much loss is a great victory.”

A battle to the extent that the king of one race participated. However, in such a battle, if the number of deaths was in single digits and the opponent was almost annihilated, it was a great victory.

Eden was worried about how many people died. She thought that it would be better to protect it as much as possible, either by having the other children or by herself.

“I… The hero.”

Soon Prince Arthur, who was in her meeting room, spoke to her. Although he knew that her relationship had broken up because of what had happened before, he approached her cautiously to repair the relationship.

Eden responded with a smile.

“Yes, Prince. Gluttonous Gulia is gone and can no longer disturb us. All that remains is to take control of the dragon’s realm and rescue them. So that part please.”

“No, that’s…”

“Do you have anything more to say?”

“…….”

There is a warm feeling in Eden’s words, who treat her businesslikely, but a line was drawn on her side. Unlike before, there is a sense of distance.

Because of the previous incident, Eden distanced himself from Prince Arthur. Of course, it’s not completely hostile because it’s necessary for the opponent to defeat the demon king, but even so, it’s because they don’t have to be friendly.

It would have been better if she had stayed still. It was because I was trying to mediate without being shy about it.

As a result, Eden treated Prince Arthur very businesslikely. It only treats efficiency without any emotion.

Her attitude changed from before, and Prince Arthur tried to change her mind somehow, but he couldn’t. The reason for the action is that people are dead, so she can’t change her mind until she brings them back to life.

Anyway, after that, the dragon’s realm began to be organized quickly. The remaining evil spirits were quickly dealt with by the allied forces, and all that was left was to free the dragons and other alien races remaining there.

Even in the realm of evil spirits, other races remain. Most of them were of different races such as orcs and ogres, so they also had someone to use as a host in preparation for new evil spirits.

However, the opponent was a dragon. The strongest among this species. There is no god to worship, but even so, one city alone was a race that could be dealt with, so even the king of the beastmen could not easily face them.

“If I’m one or two, I’ll be able to compete with you, but…”

“It’s strong enough to cover up to two, but what?”

Gluttonous Gulia, of course, was a dragon that was being controlled and kept like a slave by the evil spirits here. I didn’t know what would happen if I used my hands rashly.

The only thing he could do was fight two dragons, a beast that could be proud of being the strongest warrior on the continent. Of course, if it wasn’t for the blessing of struggle, I wouldn’t have been able to deal with any of them, so it was quite difficult to convince such a dragon. Moreover, the Beast King also did not know how to fight, but he was not confident in persuasion.

Eden decided to take his place. He had enough material to convince them, so he was confident, and the Beast King persuaded the representatives of the Elves, Dwarves, and Beast Kingdoms, and knew the achievements of the warriors who had formed an alliance.

Afterwards, Eden stood in front of the dragons. There are also those who have been occupied by the demon king and have died after using them in various ways, so the number of remaining dragons barely exceeds one hundred.

Among them, the red dragon, who was in relatively good condition, spoke to Eden in front. Since they speak the same language, there is no need for telepathy as in Bertatus.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Choi Eden, a warrior from another world summoned from Tyr Kingdom.”

“Are you a human warrior?”

“Yeah, what about you?”

“My name is Verkeiron. I am the current Dragon Lord.”

“Hmm.”

Their condition was not very good. Considering that they had been held captive by demons and there were only a few of them, I could get a rough idea of ​​what they had been through. So Eden did not greet them playfully, but politely greeted them and had a conversation.

On the one hand, she smelled a familiar scent from the dragon she was conversing with. Maybe that’s what caused the smell…

“Bertatus?”

“How do you know that name?!”

“Same name, same red dragon. How is your relationship with Bertatus?”

“He is my son!!!”

“Oh, come to think of it, Bertatus told me that he was Lord’s second son.”

A familiar name, there’s Rod’s son. In addition, as far as they knew, Bertatus was in a situation where even life and death could not be known from the experiments of demons. Therefore, the reaction of the dragons can only be fierce.

“Bertatus? Is he still alive?”

“I wish I could…”

“Really? Are you really alive?!”

At least in number, they were large, so their whispers were as loud as the shouts of a stadium. After waiting until he calmed down for a moment, Eden informed them of Bertatus’ current situation.

“The demon king was planning to invade another world as well, and he intended to use the body of a dragon as a host and send an evil spirit to serve as an advance guard. Bertatus was one of the dragons sent that way, but fortunately, he was able to defeat the evil spirit and rescue him.”

“Oh, human warrior… Thank you. Did you say you came from another world?”

The Dragon Lord also changed his attitude whenheheard that he had saved his son. Even the hero raised something that looked down to some extent to an equal position.

Eden told him many stories. His recent situation, the situation over there, and the current situation.

“Yes, the world I came from is still relatively safe because demons do not have much power. And Bertatus is doing various activities in the other world, being treated as a distinguished guest of a country.”

“Oh, that’s a good thing.”

“The Four Heavenly Kings, Gulia the Gluttony, have been defeated by our allied forces, and you are now free. But I have a favor to ask of you.”

“…I see what you’re trying to say. Are you asking for help in joining the Allied Forces and defeating the demon lord?”

“Yes that’s right.”

Bertatus was a dragon with such a good personality that the worst of them called him a Confucian dragon and thought that even a phantom would look after him. His father, Verkeiron, also had a bit of an authoritative side, but aside from that, he knew how to be for his own people and respect others.

They are honorable dragons. But even so, I knew I could see the reality.

“We also want a chance to regain our lost honor, but we are tired and injured from our captivity. Many of our people are dying and we are not in the shape to fight, so it will be difficult for us to participate.”

“It seems so.”

While they were captives, they suffered all sorts of humiliating things. Like drawing blood, tearing scales, or pulling out teeth. All the good things about dragons were taken away. In some cases, like Bertatus, it was used as a test subject.

Perhaps, if they became so devastated that they could not resist the evil spirits, they might have possessed strong evil spirits and mass-produced evil spirit dragons like Fergazad. The Demon King must have thought of that as well.

“First of all, let’s start with treatment. Only when the body recovers will we be able to think positively.”

“Thank you for being considerate.”

“So, let’s take a shower first.”

“What did you just say?”

In addition to Susano’o’s authority, it mixes the essence of water to make rain with the power of the essence of water. Since the evil spirits had already been sorted out, there was no need to restore the enemies, so they could be used extensively.

When raindrops touch the skin, wounds are healed, and when drunk, internal wounds are healed. As a recovery, it was a skill that surpassed most of the other abilities in this world, so even the dragons began to regain their energy.

“Ohhh, is this… A [Miracle]?”

“It’s not [Miracle], It’s spirit magic. Ah, now that elves can handle spirits, I wonder if they can use this.”

Although it is a spirit from another world, the basis is the same, so if you tell me the trick, you will be able to use it. Suddenly, she came up with a plan to use the elves contracted with the water spirit as medics, so she thought it would be a good idea to tell the story to the elven queen later.

“I’m still not in a perfect state, but I think I’ll be able to fight. Even in the worst case, I’ll help you defeat Pergazad, the traitor to the clan.”

“Ah…That’s what you mean.”

I’ve been in captivity for a while, and the demons wouldn’t tell me that one of the four heavenly kings was dead, and I wouldn’t have known it was from another dimension in the first place. It was only after Bertatus came across the dimension that he learned about it when he saw the skeleton of Pergazad, which was used as Crong’s body.

Eden carefully summoned Crong’s body. Even though it was improved, the skeleton was not visible from the outside, but the dragons seemed to be able to recognize it.

“No, that’s from Pergazad!!!!”‘

“It came over to us and was trying to ruin a country and start a war, so we caught it. I don’t know anything else, but I received and used the bones. I’m sorry if that part gets caught.”

“No, rather, it’s a good thing. If the traitor of the clan was punished, that’s it. Moreover, if the bones are useful to the human warrior, we will be able to at least pay for his mistakes.”

The dragons did not back down even though they knew that Fergazad, the traitor to their clan, was dead.

They are a bit authoritative, but considering that it is because they are dragons who can be said to be the strongest on the continent as individuals, it is natural and they know honor along with it. That’s why Eden tried to pay off his debt in a different way.

“Then, the only way to avenge the disgrace and regain our honor is to defeat the demon lord.”

“Thank you for your help.”

“We’ll take care of ourselves here and if we recover, we’ll send you news. Please put us at the forefront of defeating the demon king.”

“I promise.”

Dragons also joined the allied forces. Now, all the cards needed to defeat the demon king have been gathered.

All that remains is to beat the demon lord after a little tidying up. A full-scale all-out war will ensue.

Eden returned to Tyr Kingdom with other allied forces other than those to be deployed in the dragon’s realm. At the same time, he organizes this and that and observes the dynamics of the demon king.

About that part, I confirmed by asking the Elf Queen. Now able to contract with her spirits, the elf could channel the spirits’ power into her arrows and unleash artillery-level firepower, but she could also kill prey and become a stealthy scout.

“Because the border is tight, I couldn’t enter the place where the demon king is, but I’ve definitely figured out where the demon king is. It’s here.”

“It’s on the outskirts more than I thought. I think I’ll be able to kill it if I hit the back of the head with a diversion.”

“I’ve thought about that number too… But this is rather a trap.”

“A trap?”

“When I consulted with Tyr Kingdom, they said that former warriors were also treated in this way.”

Evil spirits are beings who derive pleasure from destruction and slaughter, so group action is impossible by nature. That was possible because there was a powerful evil spirit called the Demon King, so we were able to gather and unite them.

So, both former warriors and most people think that if they defeat the demon king, they will be able to defeat the demons that have become out of control individually. And that’s true.

However, if there is something overlooked, it is the fact that the Demon King is strong. Considering that subhumans possessed by evil spirits are currently invading the earth as one of the demon lord’s powers, he had to think of a semi-transcendental class.

“It’s a trap, but it’s rather a good opportunity.”

“Yes, I think. I think we need to think about this.”

The number of demons is very large. There are over 100,000 demons that have been clearly identified on the front line, and more than that if you consider demons without a host. It was obvious that a lot of damage and resources would be consumed to defeat those evil spirits and defeat the demon king.

Furthermore, the current situation is that four out of five kingdoms have collapsed, and they are fighting a war by gathering what is left. If it goes into a long-term battle, the allies will surely lose.

Eden is making up for the things she lacks in many ways, but she is also a person. She can hold out for years supporting one kingdom, but she eventually reaches her limit.

Of course, one of the reasons why you need to process it quickly is because of the CSAT. Every time he thought about it, Eden endured a deep sigh.

“Since there is still time, let’s think about hitting the demon king right away. The hero must have been exhausted from the gluttony Gulia.”

“If you rest while eating delicious food, you will recover quickly, so don’t worry.”

“Hero really likes meals and cooking.”

“Because my job is a cook!!!”

Transcendentalists have different majors, so the method of restoring mental strength or will is also different. A transcendental person from Moorim often recovers his will by having breakfast for luck, but Eden recovers it by eating a meal.

Although the amount of food is a problem, in a way, efficiency is the best. As long as you eat indefinitely, you can recover efficiently.

When it is time for her meal, her royal chef, who has taught her several things to spread her culinary skills during her stay in the palace, comes before her with her own dishes.

Among the meals served at the royal palace that day, the main dish was a huge meat with bones attached like cartoon meat. Even the bones were the size of a forearm, and thick flesh wrapped around those bones.

“Wow!!!!!”

“I tried cooking with the cooking technique the warrior taught me. I hope it fits in your mouth.”

“It must be very delicious!!! I think it’s ripe!!!!”

Even the flesh wrapped around the forearm-sized bone in the center is a span of radius. The fat layer on the outside and the lean meat on the inside seemed to be split into layers, and the steam was dripping with juices.

This type of meat is simply grilled and cannot be properly cooked through to the inside. So, while cooking slowly over low heat, I applied a juicy sauce so that the outer part would not burn, so that the taste was absorbed into the fat.

From the outside of the crispy-cooked fat to the rare-cooked lean meat inside.

Eden cut the meat into bones. If you lay it on a plate, it feels luxurious like a meat cake.

“Meat cakes, honey!!!!”

Match the weight of the fat part and the lean part and cut it like a piece of cake and put it in a bite. The first thing that touches you is the sauce and the fat layer of the shell part and the crispy skin with sugar, then you can feel the soft fat inside, and finally the lean meat that has the most weight.

Every time you chew, the gravy comes out, and the savory fat adds flavor. I wanted it to be tough, but rather, the meat that I had been chewing in my mouth passed lightly like jelly.

“This is delicious. What kind of meat is it?”

“The meat of a large animal called the Cockatus. It is a popular livestock because of its large size and delicious taste.”

“I hope to get some puppies later.”

Eden, who ate all the meat the size of his upper body along with various garnishes and side dishes, still felt a little bit regretful.

If her nobles saw her, they would say she was uncultured and barbaric, but she didn’t have anyone in Tyr Kingdom who would say that openly.

Wow!!!

“What?”

Eden, who was tearing off the meat attached to her bones, accidentally chewed her bones. She’s hard-boned, but her chewing power is that of a crocodile, so her teeth and jaws aren’t a problem.

I was just taken aback by the unfamiliar taste I had tasted for the first time in the chewed bones.

“…Are you going to eat this, even the bones?”

“Yes? Not at all. Are bones usually not eaten?”

She said that the person who cooked it couldn’t eat it, but Eden, who chewed the bone as if she were eating a snack, tasted the taste of her marrow and various flavors there. The current situation is strange because she originally couldn’t eat bones either.

It seems that her gluttonous Gulia gave her strange things to her while reaching Buddhahood.
