Episode 67
21. Battle of Yamata no Orochi
One.
There was a clear difference between the scene seen from the helicopter and the scene seen up close.
[Passive skill Divine Protection Lv. A large amount of toxicity is nullified by Max>.] [Holy power is continuously being consud.]
First of all, Yamata no Orochi… … The na is too long. Because it's Japanese style, it doesn't stick to the mouth very well.
“Because it has eight heads, I’ll just call it Eight Dragons.”
Palryong, that guy uses poison. From afar, I thought he was spewing black flas, but it turned out to be extrely poisonous.
That's why it was even more difficult.
“If I hadn’t co, I would have been in real trouble.”
Extre poisoning causes massive casualties. In particular, this level of toxicity cannot be endured by even a decent awakened person.
The term 'national crisis-level demon' didn't really hit
at first, but I could feel it when I saw the buildings corroded and lting by the poison.
Even though the poison was being neutralized through sacred protection, the vicious power of the poison could be clearly conveyed just by looking at the tingling skin.
If a person were to be exposed to this kind of poison, most of it would flow out as a handful of blood.
“That’s cool.”
To that crazy barbarian, it becos a dium that reminds him of a sauna.
The irregular was the irregular.
Even though Aiden was covered in poison without any defense chanism, he was fine.
“I once fell into a trap set by a hostile tribe. It was a tribe that used poison as their main weapon, and they dropped
into a jar filled with deadly poison. It was already 20 years ago. “I vaguely rember that ti.”
“Normally, we call it trauma.”
“It is one of the proud histories of struggle imprinted on my body. Thanks to this, I have gained a strong body that is not addicted to any poison. And I threw the entire tribe that had given
that gift into that jar.”
At least CEO Seojin Choi does not talk about such heinous stories as if it were natural.
What kind of world is this guy from?
They say there are levels even among machos, but this one was nowhere near the level of being called macho.
Compared to this guy, CEO Seojin Choi was a man worthy of being called a gentleman.
"savage. “ There are no survivors in this area.”
“I know that without you having to tell , crazy pope. “ Humans cannot survive extre poison, that’s basic common sense.”
“Ah, sorry. “ He seems like a guy who doesn’t even know basic common sense.”
That physical ability to withstand extre poison was not an extraordinary ability that ca from magical power or divine power.
It was sothing so simple, literally pure physical strength.
At this point, I am curious about the unknown power I felt in the barracks earlier.
『Kwauuuu-』
"savage. “ That guy woke up.”
“That’s mine. I was disappointed that there were no dragons in my world. Was it in your world?”
“There was.”
“How did you compare to that guy?”
After thinking about Aiden's question for a mont, I answered while putting leather gloves on my hands.
“There is no comparison.”
“Is that guy stronger?”
"No way. “ If that guy was stronger, I wouldn’t have been called to that world in the first place, right?”
The Demon Dragon King who led the army of gluttons.
The demon dragon, who gave up the pride of his race in pursuit of great power, was so strong that he was terrifying.
So much so that it cannot even be compared to Palryong, who only spits out black spit from his mouth.
“Crazy Pope, I’m even more interested in you. You are the first returnee that I feel like. It's okay to be happy. “There are not many humans who can win the favor of this great tribal chieftain.”
“Let’s finish quickly. “ It’s my first ti in Japan. I want to enjoy the hot springs, right?”
“Among the traditions of our tribe is the tradition of enjoying a bath with a sparring partner. Let’s kill that guy, finish our friendly sparring, and then enjoy a bath together.”
“Hey you crazy bastard.”
“Take a good look. “ This is speculation.”
A harsh energy emanated from Aiden’s body.
Holy power, magic power, magical energy. A power that belongs nowhere else that I know of.
I felt it before, but it was a primal force closer to 'will' rather than called 'energy'.
『Kwauuuuuuu-!』
Palryong has fully awakened from his sleep and is watching us with red lights shining in his sixteen eyes.
At the sa ti, nurous monsters that were keeping a distance from us began to rush towards us all at once.
“A warrior proves himself only through fighting, and at the sa ti grows. Fighting is tempered through fighting. “Fighting is a manifestation of the will to fight the opponent to the end as long as one’s life is at stake and as long as one’s eyes are open.”
The raw power swept away the monsters in an instant.
And the monsters touched by that fierce will fall without being able to do anything.
For , the sight was impressive.
I thought he would just blindly crush the enemy, but he subdued the enemy in a more effective way.
『Keaaaaaaaaa!』
Palryong, who sensed Aiden's 'fighting spirit', scread even louder. And then the full-scale battle began.
A dark liquid is spewed out from the mouths of all eight heads at the sa ti. The extre poison that instantly covers the sky sweeps away everything without distinction of friend or foe.
The monsters that were convulsing on the floor due to speculation lted like ice cream the mont they touched the poison.
“I go first.”
Aiden shouted loudly and broke through the poison head-on. The axes he was holding with both hands cried out loudly, and the huge wave of poison split apart.
Then the large body of Palryong, who was glaring at us with red eyes, cos into view again.
The extre poison it fires from a long distance is enough to be called a weapon of mass destruction, but it is only limited to those who can use it.
Aiden leaped into the air like a crazy person, covered in poison.
“Hraaaaa!”
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
He cut off the eight tails rushing towards him at once. It was enough inaction to be called self-destruction... … This is probably the general public's point of view.
I lightly checked my condition while watching Aiden running around like a goby.
“It doesn’t seem like there are any restrictions on causality.”
Is it because the number of believers has increased? The causality that had put the brakes on
every ti I tried to use my power properly was quiet this ti.
I knew sothing would be different since it was a national crisis level demon attack, but there was no need to be nervous in the first place.
Well, it definitely feels like a huge threat to the awakened people on Earth... …
“I tore up all the demon lords who said I was strong, but if I can’t crush a guy who is only as big as a dragon hatchling, the probability doesn’t make sense.”
[Active skill Holy Spear Lv. Casts Max>.]
Oooooh!
I threw the holy spear created in my hand straight towards Palryongi, and the holy spear stuck right into the rightmost head of Palryongi.
After a while.
『Ahhh!
『Keeeeeeek!』
As the holy spear exploded, the other three heads next to it exploded at once.
The four remaining heads began writhing in pain and spewing venom in all directions.
I looked at it and nodded slowly.
"If you blow up another head, the rest of the head hurts too...... Ok."
He summoned his spear again and turned to Aiden.
"If you want to draw, you've got to work hard. This is divine power. Two-bottle barbarian."
Then Aiden let out a whirlwind.
"Don't you have any pride as a warrior? Let's play fairly-"
"I told you that last ti the orc overlord was tooth and new, aren't you a distant relative?"
"Cowardly!"
"What do you say?"
I grinned at Aiden, then tossed the chant once more.
"If you twist it, you can do it."
Where did you get soone who doesn't even have ranged skills?
2.
A base camp located near Sendai City.
"Yamata no Orochi...... No biofeedback."
“…… Total battle ti is 1 minute and 12 seconds. A national crisis-level monster, codenad Yamata no Orochi...... Defeated."
"No friendly casualties."
"By the hand of South Korea's irregular, Kim Si-woo...... The situation is closed."
There was silence in the base camp.
Neither the Japanese Awakeners, nor the Arican Awakeners. Even the awakened of South Korea.
They looked at the live broadcast of the extermination and couldn't continue.
And so did Japan's Pri Minister, Hiroto Sasaki, who belatedly joined the base camp.
"That's ridiculous. Was the U.S. trying to test soone like that? Is that in our Japanese land?"
"Your Excellency."
"Our holand has been turned into a nuclear test site in South Korea. And what were the results of the nuclear test...... It's an unprecedented success. Twice. With just two attacks, we dealt with the Yamata no Orochi, which caused so many casualties."
There were only two rooms.
The Yamata no Orochi, who had killed countless civilians and countless awakened people who had been dispatched for ergency response, was defeated by only two attacks.
With two Irregulars mobilized, it was taken for granted that the defeat would be successful, but only one of them played a good role in this battle.
"Worst."
Pri Minister Sasaki pressed his fingers against his throbbing head.
Completing the defeat of Yamata no Orochi without further damage was certainly a matter of great joy to Japan.
A national crisis-level demon.
The subjugation of the demons that could lead the country to the brink of collapse if left unchecked was certainly a feater who deserved to be applauded.
However, this is only possible if you subjugate yourself with your own strength.
Foreign powers, especially the irregulars of the Republic of Korea, intervened. No, it wasn't just that he intervened, but that the South Korean irregulars alone sorted out the situation.
It was already a catastrophe from here.
Currently, the Rising Sun Society, which leads the mainstream of Japan's awakened society>, is a difficult organization to control. Now that Japan has been saved by the South Korean irregulars, there is no way they will stand idly by.
Besides, it wasn't just the rising sun that he feared.
"Did the U.S. really have this situation in mind?"
The true intentions of the United States were in doubt. Did they really not know that Kim Si Woo was such an irregular?
Maybe South Korea's President Seo Shin-woo has already made a deal with him?
All sorts of doubts ran through my mind. If the U.S. assus this situation, Japan will have given Kim Si Woo a stage for his international debut for free.
‘…… yes, that's not the big thing right now.'
As long as it happened, it wasn't the cause that mattered.
Investigating the cause was an afterthought, and repairing it ca first.
Just as Pri Minister Sasaki was trying to figure out a way, the foreign minister, who had been silent on the sidelines, offered his opinion without hesitation.
"Why don't you induce naturalization to the Japanese side, as in the case of Liu Jin-young?"
"Naturalization? On what terms?"
"The population of my country is still much larger than that of South Korea. Wouldn't it be deserved to be brought in on the condition that the Ren Church be pushed on a national level?"
Pri Minister Sasaki was a gentle man who didn't show his emotions to the point of being nicknad "Saengbul
