Episode 649 The Kingdom of Different Races (1)

As the sun slowly sets.

Two figures were praying in a temple with dark gray pillars that stood out.

A black priestly robe and a white priestly robe.

The two, dressed in contrasting clothing, met eyes as they bowed at the altar.

“Is this done?”

The black priest handed over a small marble from the altar.

At that, the white priest smiled and received the beads, then carefully placed them in the wooden box.

“yes. His blessings will fall upon the whole world.”

“I will pray for things to go well.”

“thank you. Thanks to you, it was worth coming a long way.”

Contrary to their friendly smiles, the altar in front of them was covered with blood.

The corpses of various beasts, as well as the corpses of monsters and other races, were scattered all over the place, so it didn’t seem like it was a pretty sight to see even if it was a lie.

The priests behind them shuddered.

they saw

What terrible things happened before the ceremony at the altar.

The images of the different races screaming for help and the monsters screaming and struggling in agony were still not forgotten in my mind.

The two priests in front of them disbanded them without hesitation.

Drinking blood and performing rituals while intoxicated with slaughter, they didn’t look human for a moment.

Perhaps feeling the gaze, the priests gave a short bow to the corpses belatedly.

“It is a noble sacrifice. If the meaning is conveyed, they will understand.”

The white priest who said that was smiling brightly.

The priests could only nod their heads.

Dozens of priests have already been killed by their hands.

If you go against it, there is only death.

Let the moon begin to rise in the sky.

The two priests looked up at the night sky with their hands behind their backs.

“Since you got black, now all you have left is white.”

“It won’t be difficult. Since this has already happened…”

He nodded at the black priest’s words.

The white priest who gazed at the distant mountain asked.

“In the room, what do you plan to do with those descendants?”

“If you are not an ally, you are a nuisance. I’ll have to think about it.”

“But aren’t they already scattered? Do you have any good ideas?”

“If a crisis strikes, why not do your duty? Even if they look like that, they are all favored by the goddess.”

The black priest’s smile deepened.

It’s kind of a chilly laugh.

The priest in white robes nodded slowly.

“Please tell me when the time is right. I will not go far.”

“yes. Then have a good night.”

“You are at peace.”

After exchanging greetings, they left the altar without saying who came first.

On top of the bloody altar.

The crimson-colored moon was shining brightly.

Evening when the night still fell.

Soonbok made warm tea and set the cup down next to Soyoung.

He looked up at the night sky through the window and slowly opened his mouth.

– It was when I was a micro-spirit.

Even at that, Soyoung still did not respond.

However, it was a face that said that obedience did not matter much.

he kept talking.

– I was taken to the battlefield before I knew the world. It was a time when relations between the spirit world and the middle world were not good. At that young age, I fought with those in the middle world, floating in the air with little mana.

The way he spoke was still calm.

– It’s an immature spirit that hasn’t even formed properly yet. How much help would it be to struggle with insignificant mana?

After taking a sip of tea, he looked at Soyoung.

– When their lives were in danger, they abandoned their own people and fled. It was a life of living in hiding in a cave while disobeying the order of the superior to fight. Then, when his mana ran out, he was repatriated to the spirit realm and hid.

“…”

Soyoung, who had not responded so far, turned her head and met her gaze.

The dull eyes seem to have found their focus.

Soonbok spoke quietly.

– But is that wrong?

“….”

– not wrong. Life is precious to everyone. Those who bite the poison and commit suicide are rather the wrong ones. If I hadn’t cherished my body, I wouldn’t be where I am today.

Unlike usual, So-yeong lowered her head, as if she had felt something at Soon-bok’s strict words.

“But…”

‘Will you forgive me for running away?’

So-yeong, who couldn’t bear to say anything behind her back and swallowed it, bit her lip.

Subok simply said calmly.

– If you are not accepted, you just leave. If you don’t have that kind of resolution, you’re just a child.

“…”

That’s definitely true.

If you tried to be forgiven without even making up your mind, that would be hypocrisy.

Did you make up your mind listening to the story?

Soyoung took a teacup.

It felt like my heart was calming down as the warm tea went over.

“…the saint?”

– I do not know. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, you won’t die, so there’s no need to worry.

This is a very reasonable opinion.

“I need to replace the receiver.”

– I knew that and put them downstairs. Except for the one lying in the hospital bed.

After hearing the words, Soyoung stood up and bowed her head briefly.

“…thank you.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve been thanked by humans.

Soonbok scratched the back of his nose and let out a snort.

He was the one who thought it would be okay to help out sometimes.

Ray looked around the estate and was looking for a direction.

“I don’t have to worry about production.”

The Goblin Queen did better than I thought.

In terms of things like textiles, farm tools, and wood, the goblins stood out.

Although we are not able to achieve the desired results due to the lack of technology and materials, we will surely be able to develop at a rapid pace if we start receiving young people with skills.

Also, in the case of blacksmithing, it seemed that he could direct himself.

Derp is a geek, but he was a real man at least in one skill.

“All that remains now is the power issue…”

If there is one thing I realized from the battle with the Black Room, it is that I cannot fight the Black Room with my current power alone.

Even if each of the goblins could handle mana, it was meaningless if they weren’t good at it.

Heukbang is literally an organization outside the standard.

It was obvious that even the Lessian Empire, which was called the strongest country in the East Continent, would be brutally trampled by the hands of the Black Army if it fought head-on.

In addition to that, if the ‘Coalition’ under their command was combined, the world in the dark room might come.

“It bothers me because the guys who were terrifyingly expanding their power not too long ago are quieting down.”

The coalition created by gathering small kingdoms extended its influence to the northern regions.

Now, the only thing left in the north was the Lessian Empire.

It would have been a pain to go down to the south and occupy the trading bureau, but somehow the movement of the coalition stopped after that.

I don’t know why, but I could say that I was really fortunate.

“I’ll leave Celia’s work to Hafman and focus on subsuming other kingdoms.”

Fortunately, there were reliable manpower around.

If the estate was left to the goblin queen for the time being, it would be easy enough to maintain its rule.

Ray, who was making plans for the future, turned his head to the commotion he heard in front of the castle gate.

There were quite a number of troops standing there.

“I don’t know why mere goblins are standing guard, but we are envoys from other countries! Didn’t you ask me to let you in!”

“Kieek! No way! Humans are enemies!”

“I’ve never heard of a death god coming!”

The goblins pointed their spears and threatened.

Gregory gave him a puzzled look.

“It’s a big deal.”

Selena also shook her head.

“I don’t know if they tell me the story…”

When I asked the saint to tell them that they had come, they just asked back, ‘Who the hell is the saint?’

As only questions come back to questions, it is frustrating for them as well.

Filia of the Greyman Kingdom let out a small sigh.

“It’s just a waste of time. We will camp here today.”

The moment they were about to give up and withdraw.

said Ray from the castle wall.

“what. Gregory? What’s going on with the Lessian Empire?”

Let’s hear a familiar voice.

they raised their heads

It was hidden by the robe, so it was hard to see, but the pure white hair matched the saint they knew.

When his name was called, Gregory turned bright.

“Gregory of the Lessian Empire is meeting the saint.”

“Selena of the Lessian Empire meets the saint.”

As they bowed, Ray jumped off the wall.

He greeted me as he landed casually at a height that could have been ten meters.

“nice to meet you. But…”

Ray looked at them.

From the Lesian Empire to the Greyman Kingdom and the Baybon Kingdom.

All the kingdoms that are said to use their strength in the world are gathered.

Did something happen?

Philia, who read his expression, shook her head and said.

“It’s true that I’ve been looking for something, but it’s nothing to worry about.”

“Then I’m glad. Please come inside.”

When Ray chinned, the goblins, who hadn’t budged for over an hour, reacted quickly.

“God has commanded! Open the door!”

“Keew!”

The goblins vigorously opened the gates and bowed, bringing weapons to their chests.

My heart is complicated now that I’m even being courted by monsters.

They crossed the gate without hiding their awkward faces.

“It’s a territory that hasn’t been properly developed yet.”

Ray said scratching the back of his head.

The meaning hidden in the words must have meant ‘help me if you can.’

Selena got the word.

“If something goes, something comes.”

‘Don’t you have something to give us first?’ was the answer.

Certainly that was true.

While chatting with people I haven’t seen in a long time.

Before we knew it, we arrived at the entrance of the ‘Goblin Kingdom’.

The hazy smoke seen from afar and the goblins rushing through the streets were like newspaper articles to them.

Even Gregory, who said he would not harden his expression in a foreign country, opened his mouth.

“Goblin?”

“The streets… are full of monsters…”

Selena said, covering her mouth.

There were even goblins who tamed and rode wild boars, no matter where they came from. Even though it was my territory, Ray, who hadn’t gotten used to it, admired it up to his head.

“This is the Champon Kingdom.”
