Chapter 224
224. 8 months later 5
-That was the second meeting.
Bassack Bassak.
Arriving halfway up, Kang Seung-hyeon looked around just in case.
However, no matter how much I looked around, there was no sign of anyone else, and all I could see was a mass of black shadows hiding in the bushes.
In other words, Kang Seung-hyun and the Black Beast, who made the broadcast, came to the mountainside of Skana.
It sounds like there are only these two.
‘I’m sure with this.’
The Black Beast is a dimension mover who cannot use [God’s Communication] for some reason.
‘I don’t know how it ended up like that, but I’ll ask about it later.’
After Saddam was free later.
Now we have to deal with the most urgent.
“{There is no one else around, so you can rest assured.}”
Rustling rustling.
Seunghyun Kang approached with a calm voice.
The black beast was still trembling in the grass.
“{I’m not here to fight you. As I said before, I only came because I wanted to ask you something.}”
Pak!
Seunghyun Kang dropped the knife he was holding on the floor and kicked it away.
“{I threw away all my weapons.}”
Of course, he only said that and actually hid a few knives in his sleeves.
Because Kang Seung-hyun was a thorough human being.
rustle.
“{….}”
Still, as if this obvious performance worked, the black beast hiding in the grass secretly appeared.
‘As expected, it works.’
In the first place, if this was a person who wouldn’t be eaten, he wouldn’t have appeared here.
Basrak Sarak.
The black beast that appeared was quadrupedal rather than bipedal, perhaps to hide easily in the grass.
Form change is also possible.
“{I have a lot to say, but I’m busy, so I’ll ask something urgent.}”
Kang Seung-hyun opened his mouth, taking a quick look around.
There was no feeling that other adventurers were approaching yet.
“{The fact that you appeared here means you heard my broadcast. Listening to my broadcast… means that you are also a dimension mover, right?}” “
{…Yeah.}”
“{Are you unable to use [God Communication] right now?}” The
black beast quietly nodded its head. Nodded.
‘That’s why he came.’
If [God’s Communication] was broken, he would not have been able to communicate with the people of the Azul Continent as well as with the dimension mover.
‘It doesn’t matter if it’s a trap, so he must have wanted to meet someone he could communicate with. That’s why I came all the way here trembling.’
there are often
It is not that people are deceived because they do not know, but people who are deceived even though they know.
‘I can’t understand it at all, but it must be the same on the other side.’
Kang Seung-hyun took out a bottle of stamina potion, drank it, and continued.
“{I am also a dimension mover. Right now, [Communication of God] is turned off.}” “
{That’s why I can hear you…}” “
{It’s usually translated into Azul, but if you turn off [Communication of God], it’s plain Korean.}”
“ {I thought I couldn’t talk to anyone in this state… but that wasn’t it…}”
Pak Park.
The black beast trembled, then put its head on the ground and began to cry.
It seems to be a skill of its own that it learned to silence and cry.
Seunghyun Kang glanced around and opened his mouth.
“{There’s no time, so let’s get to the main topic.}”
“{…the main topic?}”
The black beast raised its head.
It’s muddy because you’ve buried your head in the dirt.
“{Are you really the culprit behind the Skanakia village incident?}”
“{…I am not the culprit.}”
Upon hearing those words, the black beast shook its head desperately and shouted.
“{please believe me. It’s not me…. When we got to the village, everyone was already dead…}” “
{Already dead? Please explain in detail.}”
“{That’s why…}”
The black beast continued with a whimper.
“{We tried to cross this mountain to go to Lake Cadreya with the party members.}”
Lake Cadreya has nice scenery, but monsters like scenic places, so it’s a popular place for adventurers rather than ordinary tourists.
It seems that the Black Beast and the others also went to look for work at the lake.
“{Were you a human back then?}”
“{It’s all natural…. More than that, you’re a human now. It looks like a monster.}”
“{They said they were going to cross the mountain anyway.}” “{
Yeah…but it was getting dark while climbing the mountain, so we had no choice but to stay overnight in the village.}” “
{Camping . It’s better to stay overnight in the village than to do it.}” “
{At that time, we had climbed to the top, so we came back halfway up the hill and went to Skanakia village…}” The
black beast lowered its head and murmured.
“{The village has become a mess. Buildings are broken and there are horribly dead people scattered all over the place…}”
By the time the Black Beast and the others arrived at Skanakia Village, it is said that the village was already over.
“{I couldn’t even hear the screams. There was no one alive in that village…. As expected, if we had gone straight to the village instead of going to the top…}” “{Just think about
those things when you die and return.}” “
{Ah, okay. }”
The nonsense cuts quickly.
The black beast nodded and continued.
“{Still, we were wandering around the village to see if there were any survivors… I felt a presence from behind.}” “{Pretend to be
?}”
“{I don’t remember much after that, but something attacked us… .. The silhouette must have been human.}”
“{Then he must be the culprit.}”
The sole survivor of a village where everyone was massacred.
A normal human wouldn’t run away from there and attack others.
“{I vaguely remember yelling at the other kids to run and some running out of town}” “{
So who was the culprit?}” “
{I don’t know that. I didn’t see his face… I’m sorry I couldn’t help.}” “
{Is there a reason you couldn’t see his face? Because it was dark?}”
“{No…. It wasn’t dark because the moon was bright.}”
The black beast shook its head and said.
Even if it wasn’t as much as today, there was a very bright moon that day.
“{The reason I couldn’t see his face was because he attacked from behind.}”
After that, he lost consciousness and when he regained consciousness, he was left alone in the middle of a village with no one around.
Of course, in the state of a black beast, not a human. After
“{And then what… this is it now.}”,
he ran into the Adventurer Guild staff without a chance to grasp the situation, and from then on, he was said to have been chased.
“{They said they attacked you from behind… Did you run in and bite your neck?}” “
{Uh! that’s right! He bit his neck off!}” “
{Like the rest of the villagers?}” “
{I don’t know about that, the body was so badly mutilated…. All I can say is that it died horribly.}” The
Black Beast He shuddered as he remembered that time.
“{Last question…. Have you ever fought by biting others?}” “
{I don’t do it because my mouth hurts. It’s scary to get close to monsters.}”
At the time, I felt like ‘just for that reason?’
“In fact, I thought that he might not remember it while he was slaughtering in his mind, but that word from earlier made it clear.”
“{Are you sure?}”
“{As expected, you are not the criminal.}”
The real culprit is different.
The black beast was only framed.
“{Do you believe me?}”
“{Because I came here to believe you.}”
Upon hearing those words, the black beast hit the ground again and began to cry.
“{There was someone who believed in me… There was someone who would listen to me…}”
“I will. The only ones who can speak Korean in this vast mountain are me and you.”
At that time, Kang Seung-hyun felt that he had fallen into a different world, neither Korea nor Earth.
‘No matter how much you make a relationship here and live like everyone else, dimension movers are just strangers until they die.’
At that time, Kang Seung-hyun had no intention of returning to Earth.
However, I could understand a little bit of people who wanted to return to Earth at all costs.
“{But what now? Anyway, other people won’t think I’m the culprit.}”
“{If that’s the case…}”
Kang Seung-hyun was about to say something.
Bassack Bassak!
“That way! Guess who found it!”
“It’s a shadow wolf!”
“Everyone get ready!”
Adventurers rushed in with loud footsteps. No matter how much I searched the upper part of Skana Mountain, I couldn’t find a black beast, so it seems that I came down halfway up.
“★●☆∞…μφδΙг▤▒*#$▒!”
The black beast, who discovered the adventurers, was frightened and tried to hide in the grass.
jerk jerk.
“wait a minute.”
At that time, Kang Seung-hyun intervened between the black beast and the adventurers.
“This guy is not the culprit.”
“what?”
“Are you serious?”
“You’re not the culprit?”
The adventurers, of course, were dumbfounded.
Who would believe me if I said it was not the culprit after searching the mountains in the middle of the night?
“I just had a fight, but I am too weak. There’s no way a guy like this could destroy a village.”
“No, but…”
“They didn’t even attack me.”
Seunghyun Kang reached out and pushed the black beast away.
widely!
“^##@@!!”
The black beast, pushed back, slammed its head into the pit dug earlier with a crackling sound.
Pumpkin Pumpkin!
As the black beast struggled, dirt spurted out in all directions.
“What is it…”
“It’s just a mutt.”
The identity of the monster that he had been chasing after all sorts of hardships for several days was this kind of guy.
The adventurers looked at it with bewildered faces.
“It looks like it’s just… It’s actually just a can, isn’t it?”
“It must have been some kind of imitation type monster.”
“I guess we were chasing the wrong guy. I think I should report it to the Adventurers Guild.”
“I see…”
“I’ll have to catch this guy and see, but he won’t give me a proper reward while saying ‘I was mistaken’ or something.”
The cooled adventurers were about to leave.
“Everyone, don’t be fooled!”
Then the ponytailed, thin-eyed man shouted.
“It must be a monster that pretends to be weak, hides its strength, and attacks by taking advantage of the gap! Wouldn’t the Adventurers Guild staff have been caught off guard like that?”
“Bar careless?”
“I just looked all over the mountain, but this guy was the only suspicious monster. Isn’t this the only culprit who attacked the union staff and massacred the village of Skanakia?”
“wait a minute.”
Kang Seung-hyeon interrupted the man there and asked.
“I think the culprit who attacked the union employee and the culprit in the Skanakia village incident are two different people… Why do you think they are the same culprit?”
“That’s because both incidents resulted in the neck being bitten off. Since the technique is the same, isn’t it natural that they are the same criminal?”
The ponytail said confidently, but
“Oh really? I didn’t know that.”
Seunghyun Kang smiled as if he had waited for those words.
“The report only said that ‘the bodies were all in a terribly disfigured state.’”
[Skanakia village incident report]
[Survivors: 0 people] [Deaths: 287 people]
[The bodies were found all over the village in a terribly disfigured state…]
The damage to the bodies was so serious that an adventurer guild investigated the scene. Employees did not know the exact cause.
“But how do you know that the villagers died from having their throats bitten off?”
“….”
“This is information that you can’t know unless you kill yourself.”
