The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 246

– Bang – Bang – Bang –

Namgung slowly opened his eyes at the sound of metal screeching as he passed through the door.

“Huh…”

As he entered the second floor of the tower, he unconsciously let out an exclamation at the sight that unfolded before his eyes.

“Is this really the same tower?”

In fact, the lava field on the first floor of the tower connected to the Goblin Fortress was extremely barren, considering the environment.

To be honest, it was not a place where people could live.

It took a lot of effort to urbanize that place.

But the scenery I was seeing now was truly paradise.

Moderate temperature and light breeze.

I felt a pleasant smell that was completely different from the stale air on the first floor.

“Carlos, you live in a nice place, right?”

[This is not where our demons live. I ended up in the worst place.]

Despite the seemingly peaceful scenery, Carlos frowned when he entered the door to the second floor.

[Can’t you hear the sound of iron striking over there?]

He climbed up the hill and pointed to a huge city in the distance.

‘It’s much bigger than the goblin fortress. ‘You could say it’s the capital of the kingdom.’

“It is the kingdom of dwarves.”

As if reading Namgung’s thoughts, Carlos answered first.

“So is that Aultmorn?”

Namgung, who remembered what Lathea had told him earlier, spoke of the name of the dwarves’ kingdom.

[no. As you know, along with elves, dwarves are also people who rebelled against their status. There is no way their kingdom will survive. This is a new home created by the surviving dwarves.]

The tower is a place where sinners gather.

Everyone’s crime is to rebel against God.

Namgung had one question.

“Everyone here was defeated by Sang Sang, right?”

[Right.]

“But why are you locked up? In fact, you, who were the representative clan of the Yoran clan, betrayed them and sided with Sang Sang.”

[That…]

Carlos looked at the dwarven city with a perplexed expression.

[This is also the reason why dwarves hate demons. Well, it might be the worst place for me, but it might be the best place for Namgung. Maybe it was Ran who used his power.]

“Why?”

[You were looking for the safest place to store the power of the crown. That place is a fortress that even the Aspects cannot mess with.]

He hurried his steps as if asking me to follow him.

[There is a saying.]

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah…!!

[Even gods cannot destroy a dwarf’s furnace.]

The steam rising from the city walls seemed to answer his words.

* * *

Buuuuung―――!!

[Oh my.]

Carlos clicked his tongue, shaking off the dust as the thick hammer flying towards his head smashed into the wall.

[Are you throwing your family’s Noble Phantasm because you have nothing else to throw at it?]

“Shut up!! How dare you come here? “I can’t really put it out!!”

Namgung looked at the shouting dwarf.

It was only about the height of his waist at most, but the hammer the dwarf threw a moment ago was huge, far exceeding his height.

“And what about you? “This is a place where no humans live, so why are you here?”

The dwarf with a bushy beard said while glaring at Namgung.

“Are there any other dwarves?”

Rather than getting angry at the dwarf who was making a fuss at him, Namgung asked back in confusion.

“What are you going to do with that? “Get rid of this dirty human smell before it spreads throughout the city!!”

[Crumbling….]

It was then.

The dwarf’s eyes widened at the sight of Natriel emerging from the shadow of Namgung.

“That…”

“As you can see, it is the Primordial Spirit.”

“Nonsense… You tamed the primordial spirit? And as a soul soldier?! “The elves wouldn’t have stayed still!!”

[All the elves are dead. You know that too, Thorn. For your information, the author is the only dwarf remaining in this city.]

“Didn’t you say that the surviving dwarves created this place?”

[Dwarves are honest, but because of that, many of them collapse when their spirit is broken. The shame of defeat ultimately led him to commit suicide.]

Carlos spoke quietly into Namgung’s ear.

“shut up. If you damned people hadn’t betrayed, it wouldn’t have ended up like this. I don’t like elves either, but I really wanted to kill you! “You ran away so well… but you came here to die on your own feet.”

The dwarf called Thorn huffed and ran to pick up the thrown hammer.

The way it was waddling and running on short legs didn’t look like it was suitable for battle.

[It’s been a while. Thorn.]

It was then.

A shadow fell over the head of the dwarf holding the hammer stuck in the wall, and he raised his head at the sound of a gloomy voice.

“…!!”

Thorne’s eyes widened.

“What?! Why is there a Shinigami here!! Damn you devil! “Now you’re bringing in all sorts of crappy things!!”

Carlos shook his head with a wry smile at his shout.

[It’s still stupid. Grand’s son. My voice has changed, but you can tell.]

“No way… Akasha Tanubiel? Is that you?”

[Nice to meet you. Still my little friend.]

“It doesn’t make sense… The King of the Elves became a Shinigami… Or rather, does that make sense? In this case, it would not be strange for a primordial spirit to make a contract through necromancy…”

He looked at Namgung.

I could tell that the main culprit of this absurd phenomenon was him, even if he didn’t say anything.

“What on earth are you?”

“Hmm, where should I start explaining? First of all, he is the revealer of the Lord of the Seven Serpents and is experiencing the second Carnival. And he holds the crown of the octagonal temple, and is a contractor of the Yasha clan, and at the same time, he is the head of the human race…”

“Wait a minute!!”

At Namgung’s words, Thorne waved his hands and shouted as if he were dumbfounded.

“Are you kidding me?”

[It’s true.]

“Don’t be ridiculous!”

[What he said is not wrong. Thorn.]

“….”

Thorn, who had been angry at Carlos’ words, closed his mouth at Akasha’s words.

[You don’t even believe me.]

[Remember that there is no time for useless arguing. Carlos.]

Carlos, who was ignored, clicked his tongue, but at Akasha’s point, he also shrugged his shoulders and kept his mouth shut.

In any case, since they were defeated due to the devil’s betrayal, Carlos had no choice but to be a sinner for them.

“Akyasa, is the reason you became a Shinigami because of the author? To lend him strength?”

[It’s not just me. Don’t you feel a familiar energy from him?] Hearing

Akyasha’s words, Thorn looked at Namgung closely.

“No way…”

[I’m glad to see the comrades I once fought with again.]

“Leoric!!!”

Thorn couldn’t keep his mouth shut as he watched him become a soul soldier.

“Am I dreaming…? “I can’t believe I get to meet you all.”

Tears formed at the corners of the dwarf’s eyes.

“But… how did everyone end up like this?”

[Don’t be sad. What is important about appearance? [It is important that we, who lived in the age of rebellion, met again.]

Leoric pointed to Namgung.

[Help him. Because of that, I was able to come out into the world again. He was my colleague not only now but also before that.]

Thorn’s eyes as he looked at Namgung changed at the words of the two.

“What the hell are you? “You have two people who rebelled against Sang Sang as your colleagues…”

“What else can there be if those who rebelled against Sang Sang are followers?”

Namgung said to him.

“Maybe I want to become a traitor too.”

Gulp –

Thorn swallowed dry saliva without realizing it at his words.

“What do you want from me?”

“I want to wear the crown of the octagonal hall. “I will rise to a position of stature and prepare for war against them.”

“Aren’t you crazy? ·The moment you use that, the Aspects will go on a rampage trying to kill you.”

“I know. That’s why I haven’t been crowned yet. “I was able to open the door here thanks to Ran’s help.”

“Ran(亂)…? You mean the status of the beginning? I’m going crazy. It’s like releasing a snake to catch ants. “Are you saying you got involved with Ba Wei Sang in order to kill him?”

“I said my goal was phase, I didn’t say it was eight phases.”

“…what?”

Namgung spoke to Thorn.

“As long as Lan is there, the Eight Aspects will not be able to touch me until I completely control the power of the crown.”

“Then what’s the problem? I don’t think there’s anything I can do to help…”

Charring…

At that moment, Namgung untied the chain from his wrist and placed it in front of him.

“As far as I know, dwarves are said to be the best at handling weapons.”

“He really is speechless. “Do you even have a chain of status?”

Even as he said that, Thorn instinctively couldn’t take his eyes off the chains.

“I heard that you need the power of phase to strengthen the power of the chain. “I want to gather the power of the crown and use that power to strengthen the chains.”

“Do you mean to leave the chains to me now?”

“that’s right. I need your help. “In fact, the funny thing is, I still don’t really know how to handle this chain.”

Namgung continued.

“I want you to look at the chain. So, won’t you teach me how to handle chains?”

“This is a mineral that does not exist in the world. “I don’t know how to find out, but… I wonder if there is something among the relics my father left behind that resonates with this.”

Thorne’s voice became a little excited.

match-.

He looked like he was going to run to the basement at any moment, but suddenly slapped himself and shook his head.

“…Damn it. I’m crazy too. “In the midst of this, I was blinded by curiosity and almost made a mistake.”

He pushed the chain that was lying in front of him towards Namgung.

“Take it. “I have no intention of helping you.”

“Why?”

“I don’t work with minerals anymore. “Because I knew deep down that curiosity ruins life.”

“Did I mishear the hammering sound I heard when I entered the city?”

“No, you heard me correctly. Because that was the sound of trying to break this hammer. If I could just do this, I could be free…”

“What do you mean? Are you trying to destroy the family’s Noble Phantasm?”

“Hmph, it looks like the damn devil didn’t hear it. “The reason why our dwarves are broken.”

Namgung looked at Carlos with a puzzled expression at his words.

[This is what I told you before I came here. This is the reason the demons are trapped here and the reason the dwarves hate us.]

“You hate it? It’s not just that I hate it, I’m cursing it! “Now that the word is out, it’s good.”

Kwaang-!!

Thorn raised the hammer and struck Namgung in front.

“Kill that devil before my eyes. Then I will help you.”

“….”

The moment he saw the talkative Carlos remain silent without any rebuttal to his words, Namgung knew that there was something between them.

“Let’s hear it first.”

This is a chain of conflict that has been going on for hundreds of years.
