Episode 247 La Prarosa Liberation War (10)
‘Is that Cree…? … .’
Jin, Murakan, and the Ming Dynasty also looked up into the sky.
Cree was originally a red aerial fortress, the same color as the symbol of the Jeokmyeong tribe, but now it had soul all over its hull, as if it were a tumor.
So it seemed more dangerous. Just like the huge ship ‘Ram’ operated by the evil god during the Battle of the Evil God.
‘Ram, we have to assume it’s more than that.’
Gooooo… … !
A huge red thunderwave that had never appeared before was spreading around Kree in the Great Desert.
Anyone could understand the power even without seeing it with their own eyes. It was as if infinite power, like the sun, was vibrating in the deepest part of the mountain range-like hull.
Just a surge of power splits the earth and distorts the sky. The terrible power that could wipe out the continent in one fell swoop was contained in a single air fortress.
“Compatriots, wake up! “Our last fight cannot be tainted like this.”
The Jeokmyeong tribe did not respond to Simat’s desperate cries.
Those who survived were already consumed by marriage. Instead of being his loyal compatriot, he was now an expendable item of chaos.
The same was true for the dying Daetu Kings. Before they knew it, they were clinging to the air fortresses, with their torn flesh and bones recovering from their souls.
[Quaaaagh.]
[Geuuk… … !]
Bakarun was attached to the central part of Pivil, and Rakiman and Bechios were attached to the upper part of Vessel and Rittal. It was as if someone had torn them apart and stuffed them into the damaged parts of the air fortress.
Simat felt nausea rising at the sight of that bizarre sight.
More than the power of Jin, who had united his body and soul, and more than the inevitable future of destruction, the fact that his compatriots had become a mass of chaotic flesh was making Simat despair. Only the empty eyes of my compatriots stained with chaos.
“Lokia Ganesto. How dare you do something… … Are you doing it?”
[It would have been nice if you had done what you were supposed to do, Simat. Then there was no need for either of us to be tired.]
Ji-ing!
Suddenly, a huge red window appeared above Cree. Lokia’s face, hidden by the hood, was revealed in the window.
[But now that we have achieved good results, it is worthy of praise. Thank you for your hard work. Rest in peace now. You can just let go of the lifeline that was forcibly held onto by Changseong’s power, or… … .]
The main gun protruded from the center of the Cree. The speed was so fast that even Simat missed it for a moment, and the main gun fired fire straight at him.
A light wave mixed with soul energy and red brains, Simat quickly swung his sword, but unlike other air fortresses, it was not an attack that could be parried.
“Wow!”
It was also an attack that even a body made of red brains could not avoid the impact of. He was completely buried in the shelling for a while and was convulsing.
This was because the spirit contained in the bombardment was eating him up like a swarm of insects.
[I could end that miserable life for you. Would you say it is some kind of consideration? For the dog that barked well at the end.]
It is different from the wounds suffered simply by fighting with sword to sword or as warrior to warrior. It is also different from the helplessness I felt during the process. Cree’s main gun, steeped in spirit, was thoroughly trampling on his last pride.
Every time a piece of soul energy entered the body, the screams of the compatriots could be heard.
The ancient times that reigned as rulers, the great seal that could not be resisted, the misery of being exploited by insignificant humans, and now that we are facing destruction again even after regaining our faith in ourselves.
All of the despair and frustration of his compatriots was clawing at Simat’s inner self. Sharply broken fragments of dreams.
“My compatriots… … Just let him die, Lokia Ganesto. “If you don’t want to regret it.”
[Ah, it’s scary. Let your compatriots just face death? Hehe, I can’t believe those words are coming out of your mouth. In the meantime, you’ve been using these things like consumables. While running the Immortal Army, he squeezed out even those who should have been put to rest according to nature.]
As Lokia spoke, the light waves of the bombardment subsided.
A huge hole was left where Simat was standing, the depth of which could not be estimated. The desert sand, which had turned black, was sucked into the whirlpool like water.
Simat looked like nothing but a bone, and was barely able to fall, with its red brain waves spreading out in the middle of the whirlpool. The chaos that clung to his entire body like a leech continued to gnaw at his body.
“I told them to just let him die.”
[And I also said that to my descendants, right? The Jeokmyeong people have no hesitation in trampling on the weak, and they are not afraid of being defeated by the stronger. Well then, Simat, this is just the situation. Besides Jin, someone stronger than you has appeared and is just using those under you as he pleases.]
Sigh!
Tetalon vomited red sword energy towards Kree. However, the sword energy could not even reach Cree and was blocked by the protective shield formed by the four air fortresses.
It’s not because they’ve been weakened by artillery fire. While fighting against Jin, he pierced the Myeo King’s Reign Sword several times and inflicted several light wounds on various parts of Jin’s body.
The reason Tetalon couldn’t reach Kree right now was because it was shaking inside. The fact that he could no longer fight while protecting his ultimate pride, and the fact that this all came from his own mistakes, was clouding his sword.
-You are nothing but a foolish leader who drove you and your compatriots to death and into the jaws of chaos. If you can at least die unharmed, it will be fortunate for you.
It was just as Jin said a moment ago. Now, the one who has turned his people into a mass of chaotic flesh is not Lokia, but himself.
If I hadn’t joined hands with chaos.
If I hadn’t used the beads that Lokia gave me, or if I hadn’t received them at all, would the result have been different? Could it have been possible for them all to fight and die as enemies, rather than as infected monsters?
Even when I blinked my eyes, I was constantly filled with regret. My legs were caught in confusion and I was staggering around.
“Jin Runkandel.”
Suddenly, Simat called Jin. She didn’t look back.
“Cheongpungje, now I understand why that old man trusted you. Our fight… … That’s it. I admit defeat. “You are better than me as a warrior, and as a leader you are so superior that I cannot even be compared to you.”
Crunch, crack, crack… … ! The chaos clinging to Simat began to melt away. The emaciated body did not return, but the real body turned to ashes a long time ago anyway. From earlier, he was able to fight even without a physical body.
“It may not seem the same, but I still want to spend my last days for my compatriots. From now on, I will turn my back on you and fight. We will cut down that witch’s followers and the flying fortress that was our greatest pride. Even if you stab me in the back, I will accept it.”
Jin didn’t answer.
There was no reason to stop him. For the next twelve hours, I have to protect La Prarosa no matter what happens.
[You probably don’t think that’s enough to atone, Simat. Your eyes are shining in a way that doesn’t fit the theme.]
“Nothing can forgive the sins I committed against my compatriots. So listen, compatriots. I will let you die. I will take on all this pain and confusion on your behalf. “Even if I cannot enter into rest, you certainly will.”
The inner chaos that had been bothering Simat was extinguished.
Even the despair and resentment of the compatriots heard inside did not all disappear. Rather, that resentful voice was amplifying more clearly with each passing second.
That is a pain that can never be overcome.
But even if you are buried in darkness, you just have to move and fight. Even if you can’t see, you just have to find the way. A way for our compatriots to find rest.
Lokia was smiling as she clearly looked into Simat’s inner self.
[It’s funny. Even after living such a bloody and terrible life, I can’t believe I find hope in rest. And that was just one awakening, and one brutal fight. Isn’t that right, descendants?]
Lokia blocked Simat’s approach easily, like swatting away a fly. Every time the Kree’s main gun fired red bullets, Simat was plunged deep into the basement, accompanied by chaos.
Due to the continuous bombardment, it was impossible to get out of the hole like the first time. Even though Simat’s sword is burning red again.

Inside the hood, Lokia’s shiny eyes were touching Jin for the first time.
And Jin was feeling it. As soon as I met that gaze, Lingling, who was hiding in the center of the Light Heart, was screaming.
“You are trying to disconnect me from my half-brother, Lokia Ganesto. “Don’t call me your descendant with that filthy mouth.”
[I feel sorry for you. If it weren’t for me, you couldn’t exist. How many times did I save Temar’s life before he had his children? Didn’t you tell me about that, Murakan?]
[Lokia. You bastard… … As expected, he’s not the guy I knew. You may have crossed a line a thousand years ago, but it was all for the benefit of Temarwa. But what did you gain by betraying us? What on earth is your purpose?]
[You are asking the obvious. My purpose then and now is only one. How many times have I said that I want a just world? That’s why I was drawn to Temar. At least for once, he seemed like he could really change the world… … It shined so brightly that it couldn’t even be compared to the kid next to you.]
Murakan burst into laughter.
[So, you became a witch’s dog to change the world?]
[Witches don’t have dogs. I had one red cat, but I got rid of even that. She is fundamentally very different from me. I just know how to use the poison he released into the world.]
[And Kid and Temar. I’ve been through both, Lokia. I was the guardian dragon of both of them. There’s no way you know the kid better than me. Kid is different from Temar. He’s better than that guy… … Strong.]
It was the first time for Murakan that he clearly recognized Jin more than Temar. And that was something very unfamiliar to him. To put someone else above Temar.
[Well, our descendants will have to face the crucial moment to know that. When you have to choose just one thing, something precious.]
