episode_0135

When I found Zeke on the East Continent, I almost lost my mind for a moment.

‘Why is Zeke on the East Continent? Has the effect of the treacherous whisper been lifted?’

A treacherous whisper, an item left behind by the snake god that injects false information into the target and makes them accept it without question. It is the only mental item that can penetrate Zeke’s defense skills.

However, because the restrictions were too severe and the methods to use were limited for someone like Zeke who was busy and busy with a variety of information, the best option was to inject the information that ‘there are only male knights in the East Continent.’

Zeke is not interested in men. To be precise, he is only interested in women. Not because he identifies women, but because his ‘quest’ involves women.

Since Zeke was serious about clearing the quest, it was obvious that if he left it as is, he would also show interest in the knights stationed on the Eastern Continent, which was comprised only of women.

I tried to confine ‘that woman’ to the East Continent, but if Zeke goes to find her, all my efforts will be in vain.

That’s why they distorted the information using devious whispers… .

‘It was definitely effective, but why suddenly… ?’

I personally confirmed that they showed no interest in the East Continent until recently, so why are they suddenly in the East Continent now?

Are the forces of fate at work again?

Just like that time, no matter what I did, Zeke ended up choosing ‘that woman.’

Is fate connecting them again this time?

‘no… . Absolutely not… .’

I know very well that I cannot defy fate.

I heard directly from Zeke that this world is all fake and is nothing more than a creation that follows a set ‘scenario’.

However, the story in which ‘that woman’ was the main character has ended.

A new story has begun, and the main character in this story is me.

So fate must also be on my side.

But why… .

‘My, I…’ . He’s the main character… ? He’s the main character… Why on earth… ?’

Was it just an illusion that I became the main character?

In fact, was ‘that woman’ still the main character?

I feel nauseous.

I feel dizzy.

The thought that Zeke might be taken away created a deep swamp and began to bury my body in the soggy mud.

stuffy.

my heart aches.

Have I failed again?

‘yet… . There is a chance… .’

Zeke probably hasn’t met ‘that woman’ yet.

In that case, just kill that woman before Zeke meets her.

My heart is hot.

I feel a strong impulse.

I cannot suppress the anger welling up from deep within my heart.

okay.

It should have been like this a long time ago.

Without being swayed by trivial old sentiments.

I had to tear it to death mercilessly.

Zeke will be disappointed in me, right?

Just like before, when you raped her arbitrarily, she might look at me emotionlessly with cold eyes.

but… . What if Zeke is taken away again?

I can’t hold on any longer.

No more.

It will definitely break your spirit.

Even if I survive, I will not be alive, I will become such a waste.

therefore… . This is self-defense.

Self-defense to protect myself and between us.

If it was self-defense, Zeke would understand.

okay.

I’m sure it will.

therefore… .

I will turn this eastern continent into dust with ‘that woman’ –

“Rupia, this cat is trying to kill me.”

what?

*

*

I realized that a person can die just from being intimidated.

With an angry expression on her face, Lufia began to show her murderous intent without hesitation, and even though the target was not me, it was so brutal that it made my spine tingle and cold sweat ran down my back.

The air felt heavy, making it difficult to breathe, and my hands and feet began to tremble despite my sanity.

[Skill: Time independent activation.]

Since a full-scale battle was scheduled to begin, time independence was activated in advance.

Even though Lufia is a fraud, I expected Catsy to be no easy hit either, so I thought she would probably use time travel multiple times.

“Nyahaha. Are you threatening me with a human subject~?”

Catsy does not lose her relaxed attitude despite living as Lufia.

I couldn’t tell if he was not able to understand the opponent’s strength, or if he was taking his time because he had an accurate understanding of it.

“If you spread your life around like that, you’ll want to bother me even more~.”

Sereung–.

Sharp nails protruded from thick fingers.

“How can I harass you? From what I see, Zeke, humans seem precious, but how can they tear them to shreds right before your eyes? Or do you think it would be fun to peel off the skin on the face~.”

Catsy spits out harsh words in a playful voice.

If the intention was to provoke Rupiah, it was very successful.

I’m cumming—.

The air became heavier.

Now it feels like the temperature has dropped completely.

“Do you think it would be fun to cut up all your fingers one by one? Also—.”

Catsy, who was muttering to herself about ways to continue to torment me, covered her mouth in the middle of speaking.

“…?”

She had an incomprehensible expression on her face, and her hands were pressing down on the lower part of her face, as if trying to prevent something from popping out.

I was applying so much force that I was shaking, but unfortunately, I guess it wasn’t enough.

Pudduddduk—.

A bizarre sound of bones and flesh twisting.

Katsy’s lower jaw was torn off.

“Kyaaa—!”

Katsy screamed in pain, blood splattered on the floor, and her lower jaw, floating in the air, was ground into fine powder.

Catsy is glaring at me with a tattered face.

Luffyan is the one who tore off his chin, so why is he glaring at me?

The answer to this question was known in the blink of an eye.

Before I knew it, Katsy was right in front of me. It seemed like he had stretched out his arm to grab me, but in reality, his arm wasn’t stretched out straight, but was twisted like a twist.

“Kyaaa–!!!”

Catsy can’t even scream properly because her lower jaw is missing.

‘It’s easier to win than I thought.’

Did I overestimate the title of God?

When I saw Katsy’s face filled with fear, I instantly relaxed.

“What I was trying to do to Zeke… . I will do the same.”

Lufia stretched out her hand towards Katsy.

As a result, Katsy’s body was stretched out and she was restrained.

“Kyaaa… !”

Although I couldn’t understand what she was saying, Catsy said something that made me feel like I should wait and see.

Shook–.

I just ran away by teleporting.

“……”

Lufia must have been embarrassed, so she stood there blankly for a moment and looked at me.

“Oh, I forgot to tell you. He has the ability to teleport, so you have to catch him.”

“……Ha. You should tell me that in advance.”

As if she couldn’t bear to curse at me, Lufia shook her head and sighed.

Actually, it’s not that I forgot, I just didn’t feel the need to say it.

Anyway, I just have to turn back time.

Exactly.

Lufia snapped her fingers.

“Nyahaha. Threatening me to a human subject – ahhh!”

Time went back, and Katsy’s body, which had been relaxing, was torn apart.

“Nyaaaak! What have you done, human!! It hurts!!!!”

This time, perhaps because the head was left intact and only the lower part of the neck was torn to shreds, Catsy was able to make her voice relatively intact.

It was true that if the soul was intact, it would not die.

Look how he’s still alive despite being like that.

“You are a gray god.”

Lufia seemed to know what Catsy was, and brought up the word ‘Gray God’.

‘Gray God? I think I heard this somewhere… .’

I’m not sure exactly what the colors that appear intermittently mean. I’ll have to look into this someday.

Anyway, it wasn’t important right now, so I decided to think about it later.

“Hey, you remembered my face! You’re going to kill me! Are you saying that I will kill not only you, but all the humans around you?”

“I don’t think that’s the right thing to say. Before you kill me, why don’t you worry about your life first?”

” Naa never dies! A human, a human, can’t kill me!”

“I know. Are you talking about the ‘rule’ that gray creatures cannot kill gray gods?”

“That’s right. No one can break the ‘rules’… .”

For a moment, Catsy’s face was filled with embarrassment.

“Well, how do you know that? ?”

“…How do you know? You guys really said that right before you died?”

“Well, what does that mean… ! Wow, it sounds like you tried to kill us… . This is ridiculous. That’s impossible… !!”

“No, it is possible.”

Towards Catsy, who looked embarrassed, Lupia smiled a creepy smile.

“I’m just about to kill one.”

“…!!”

Killed God… .

Is this a bluff to make Catsy scared?

Or did they really kill me?

What is certain is that compared to when she was dealing with the transcendent Rusk, Lufia looked extremely relaxed.

It was as if the cat in front of him was no match for him at all.

“Oh, I have urgent work to do today, so I’ll take care of it for you. Next time, next time you are going to kill me.”

Catsy, who was very frightened, urgently rolled her eyes and uttered a line promising what would happen next. I think he’s planning to run away like that.

“Nya… ? why… ? Why are you doing this… ?”

For some reason, Catsy didn’t use teleportation.

Judging by the reaction, does it mean that it cannot be used?

“Your biggest weakness is… . It’s too ‘complacent’.”

◦?

A round jewel protruded from Katsy’s bulging forehead.

I instinctively knew that the jewel was Catsy’s ‘soul’.

The soul landed in Lufia’s hand, and Catsy watched helplessly, blood dripping from a hole in her forehead.

“Ma, this doesn’t make sense… . Hey, humans can’t break Naa’s soul…? .”

Catsy kept muttering to herself as if she were reciting a spell.

But as if they were laughing at her wish,

Jejeok –.

My soul began to crack.

“That can’t be possible.”

Damn it –.

“Don’t do it… .”

Blah blah blah—.

“Don’t do it!!!!!!”

Pagak –!

Intense waves emanated from the shattered soul.

As if the power tied up in the soul was released.

At the same time, Catsy, who had been letting out a long scream, suddenly lost her vitality like a toy with dead batteries.

Catsy died in vain despite the grand title of God.

Did Lufia also not like this ending?

Looking at the cold body, I snapped my fingers.

Just—.

Lufia turned back time again.

Perhaps there is only one purpose.

This may be because a comfortable death is too mild a punishment compared to the crime of trying to kill me.

So Lufia saved Katsy.

To make people pay for their sins that they have not yet been able to pay.

Rupiah tortured Cathy.

Very painfully, in many different ways.

One thing I discovered in the process was that if Catsy’s body was seriously damaged, a new body could be created centered around her soul.

Literally an immortal being who cannot die as long as his soul is intact.

It is unknown whether only Katsy has this trait, or whether the entire god race has this trait.

However, because Catsy had this immortality, there was no escape through death.

Saying that you will not die as long as your soul is intact is the same as saying that as long as your soul is not broken, you can cause pain forever.

After such endless torture,

“Nya… ? Nyaaa… .”

Katsy eventually lost her mind.

Eyes that have lost focus.

A tongue that hangs out of control.

As if he had suffered an infantile regression, he had lost his ability to speak and just kept babbling.

“Rupiah. Just leave it there.”

Lufia, who was looking down at Katsy with cold eyes as if she still didn’t feel enough, came to her senses at my call.

“Ah… … . Was I being too harsh… ?”

When she asked whether what she said was serious, it wasn’t because she felt sympathy for Catsy.

An extremely self-centered worry that I may have shown my cruel side.

Here’s what I have to say:

“It was a bit harsh, but I understand. If someone precious to me was threatened, wouldn’t I have rolled my eyes?”

“…I understand. also… .”

As long as Rupiah’s madness doesn’t harm me, I always approve of her.

The smile created using a pacemaker, the kind voice, and the positive and loving attitude toward her have already burrowed deep into Rupiah’s heart over the past six years.

The more addicted Rupiah becomes to the sweet rewards that cannot be obtained through kidnapping and confinement, the less likely it is that he will run away, and even if he does run away, he will suffer from an unquenchable thirst and eventually restore everything to its original state.

‘My anxiety symptoms have improved a lot recently, and my strategy progress has also increased a lot, so I don’t have to worry too much, right?’

It would be great if I could know Lufia’s state of mind.

Anyway, what’s important now is the treatment of Katsy.

“Did you say that cat is God? It just so happened that one of God’s souls was needed. Can I use that guy?”

At first, I planned to kill Katsy.

Since it has the ability to teleport, physical restraint itself is impossible. Even if you leave only the soul, it will be resurrected right away, so there was no way to neutralize it.

But seeing it in such a ruined state made me wonder.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to meet another god in the future, and there’s no guarantee that the next god I’ll meet won’t be more picky than Katsy.

“…No. It’s too dangerous. It may seem incapacitated right now, but it will quickly come to its senses once the threat is gone. so… .”

Lufia, who calmly shattered my expectations, stretched out her hand towards Katsy.

“You have to kill it for sure.”

Cathy’s soul burst out of her chest.

Lufia, who was holding the soul in her hand, glanced at me.

As if you were asking me for permission.

You said you had to kill him, but you even bothered to ask for permission.

If I told you that it was necessary even at the risk of danger, you wouldn’t kill me, right?

“Besides this guy, there are still gods left, right?”

Lufia nodded to my question.

“Even if there are none left, I will somehow rescue you.”

Certainly, even if the gods became extinct, Lufia would be able to save their souls.

All we have to do is turn back time to the point when God existed.

I nodded and gave permission to kill Katsy.

Damn it –.

A crack has appeared in the soul of the cat god, Catsy.

Katsy is watching the scene with blank eyes.

The mental breakdown wasn’t just an act, as even though his soul was shattering, his eyes were still unfocused.

Pagak—.

The remains of Catsey’s soul, shattered like that, were scattered in the air by the wind.
