Chapter 411 Side Story Chapter 31 – The Boy and The Sword (5)

The Boy and The Sword (5)

[This can’t be happening….?!”]

The sword murmured.

Apparently, it was quite a shock.

[No, you mean the rabbits don’t come even when they smell the burning sugar? This doesn’t make sense!]

The high seeker sighed.

He lifted his head and looked up above him.

He was already on the hillside, but the location of the plateau was obscured by clouds.

It’s a really, really high place.

Can the rabbits living there come down with the smell of burning sugar?

It was unlikely.

Even if you burn a corpse instead of sugar here, the smell wouldn’t reach there.

[No, the rabbits’ obsession with sugar goes beyond common sense, how did this happen…….]

It wasn’t that the sword had no idea.

The time when the sword was active as a human is a distant past.

Maybe there was a change here too during that time.

It takes less than a decade for a region to flourish and fall.

In extreme cases, the rise and fall could be different within a year.

Considering the passage of time, it was not difficult to guess that something had changed here.

For whatever reason, the rabbits that live here have become more closed off.

Whether their preference for sugar has declined.

It wasn’t strange.

“I don’t know what’s going on. Let’s go back to the village first.”

He wasted too much time trying to climb the mountain alone.

He thought he should go back to the village and wash up and rest.

He had to find more food, and he had to ask the villagers how to get to the plateau.

The high seeker returned to the village at the beginning of the Blue Mountains.

It was a small town, but there was one inn.

It was a one-floor inn with a kitchen and a hall, and two small rooms in the corner.

The innkeeper prepared a meal for the high seeker and began to ask questions.

Rather than asking questions for interrogation, it was the peculiar curiosity of rural people.

The high seeker knew it well, too, because he had a lot of experience in the countryside when he was a boy.

Most of the people in the area isolated from the outside by the street were either very indifferent to the outside world, or, conversely, very curious.

The owner of this inn seemed more curious than indifferent.

Fortunately, the high seeker was a person who knew very well about the situation on the continent.

He was able to satisfy the innkeeper’s curiosity.

The two quickly became friends.

Maybe it’s because they’re the same age.

Drinking wine that tastes like vinegar, with the innkeeper, the high seeker inquired about the plateau of the Blue mountains.

“Hahaha, you went up there for a week? In fact, if you live in this town, you must have climbed those stairs at least once. A stubborn person climbs the stairs for two or three days and eventually gives up. It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a person!”

The innkeeper chuckled.

“Somehow, I felt like I could go up.”

“Huh, everyone is like that. It’s like a world in a mysterious fairy tale. Maybe I could climb it. Everyone must have tried climbing with that idea.”

The innkeeper seemed to understand the high seeker’s thoughts.

The high seeker asked what he had to do to get to the plateau without the help of the rabbits.

“Well, I’m not sure about that either. There’s no way to get up there without the help of the rabbits.”

The innkeeper affirmed.

The problem was that the rabbits didn’t come down after smelling the sugar.

[Since it’s like this, let’s just go somewhere else. There is no reason to go up to the plateau.]

The sword asked.

It was the sword’s intuition that the High Seeker came to the plateau of the Blue Mountains.

The only reason was that his intuition was stuck to the plateau of the blue mountains marked on the map.

[My intuition has frozen to death. Didn’t you just want to travel to the edge of the continent? If that’s the case, let’s go west again. from the east end to the west end. It’s going to be a pretty good trip. Let’s go to the Shaman Hall at the western end together.]

The sword tried to convince the high seeker.

The high seeker was worried.

About that intuition.

Anomalies were occurring all over the continent.

The Imoogi he met in the valley was one of them.

Recently, there have been many strangely related incidents related to ‘the Godhood’.

There were more and more incidents in which people were reborn as divine beings through training, or commotions were taking place to be reborn as divine beings.

The problem was that in some of these events there were truly divine beings mixed in amongst the absurdities.

The Fairy Queen, the queen of the fairies, has become the lake’s guardian deity, and she’s been moving the weather of the vicinity as she pleases.

There is also a rumor that the most outstanding one among the goblins of the west became a fighter.

He even confirmed with his own eyes the rumor that the Imoogi of the valley ate people and animals in the forest, then sprouted wings and started flying in the sky.

It was surprising that mere mortals wanted to become gods, even more surprising that they had tangible results.

Three already in one era.

It happened in less than a decade.

Even if it happens once in a thousand years, amazing things are happening in succession in a very short period of time.

The high seeker was concerned.

If more of this is happening.

The most worrisome thing was that the same thing happened to the high seeker himself.

One day, mysterious things were happening to him.

He was experiencing abilities that would not be possible unless he was a truly divine being, rather than simply being a strong superhuman.

He heard people’s thoughts.

He predicted the next day’s weather.

Once or twice, he dismissed it as just his mood or luck.

It was a phenomenon that could not be explained in words, simply because he was strong or because he was a superhuman.

As soon as the high seeker stepped down from his throne, he went to where his intuition pointed.

He wants to learn more about the mysterious phenomenon that is happening to him.

[Let’s go west.]

said the sword.

The high seeker shook his head.

[Why, you can’t go up anyway.]

He will be able to climb.

The high seeker thought so.

His own intuition was still pointing to the plateau of the Blue Mountains.

He could feel it.

He knew that someone would be coming to lead him up the plateau.

[It’s because I’m getting too old… I’m senile, senile. Or is it dementia?]

The sword was pouring out curse words.

However, the inn’s door swung open in spite of the swearing.

The identity of the visitor standing with his back to the sunlight.

it was a rabbit

Long bunny ears hung above the head.

But, except for those ears, it looked no different like a normal person.

Plain travel clothes.

Not only the clothes, but also the eyes, nose, and mouth on the face were nothing different from those of a human being.

It was just the ears.

It was strange that she was carrying a large backpack that looked like it had to be pulled by a cow or a horse rather than a person.

The bunny-eared girl gave the high-seeker look when their eyes met.

“Hng!”

It was a feisty rabbit.

The rabbit, who had snorted, raised its head and strode into the inn.

It would have been if it had not been for the fact that she was carrying a backpack that was three times the width of the inn door.

“Kyang!”

The rabbit, who was walking around without expecting the backpack to get caught on the door of the inn, fell over with a strange sound.

The backpack ruptured and the items inside spilled out.

The high seeker got up to help the rabbit who had fallen, even though he was embarrassed by what had happened because of their eye contact.

Fortunately, the high seeker was able to quickly make friends with the rabbit.

There wasn’t any particular reason.

He gave her sugar as the sword had advised, and the rabbit liked it.

The high seeker asked her if she could take him over the plateau after she left.

The rabbit flatly refused.

It was such a firm refusal that he did not even think about asking again.

Instead, the rabbit asked for help on her journey.

The rabbit said she had come down from the plateau and went to the cities of the human continent to get the supplies she needed.

She said she could take him to the plateau if he could guide her to the city.

It wasn’t a bad deal.

The high seeker accepted the offer.

The rabbit was also very happy.

It seems that she was feeling anxious about visiting a human city.

The rabbit introduced herself as Kirikiri.

* * *

“Ummm…”

Does the story continue this far?

I was listening to it just in case, but in the end, even Kirikiri appeared.

After this, all the gods of the Hundred Gods Temple will come out in attendance.

“What the hell is that planet? All the gods I know are gathered there. It’s a completely stagnant planet.”

It’s not just one or two.

Most of the gods of the Hundred Gods Temple were being talked about as if they were from that planet.

[Many people from there survived.]

Survived, he said.

That was an interesting word.

It’s not just that the planet has produced many gods.

It’s just that many gods from that planet have survived.

I thought that maybe the story of Ahbooboo would go beyond the human days of the God of the Sky and lead to the war of the gods that followed.

[Haha, well, it is true that there were many gods. My hometown is pretty amazing.]

Haha, what do you mean ‘haha’?

Ahbooboo seems to have taken my words of ‘why there are so many gods there’ as a compliment to his hometown.

It was never one.

A neighborhood with a lot of gods can never be a good neighborhood.

Moreover, the times were serious.

It’s like a world full of crazy people who are willing to do anything to become a god or a higher deity.

Even before the birth of the Hundred Gods Temple, there will be no system or rule to control the gods.

The high seeker in the story was worried about the arrival of the gods.

But, in my opinion, it’s already too late.

Those close to God must have tried to eat mortals on sight to become gods somehow.

Even the vague deity must have been struggling to be reborn as a more powerful deity.

Strong gods eat each other, weak gods eat mortals.

There will be nothing other than hell.

[Yeah, it wasn’t like that back then, though. When a little more time passed there, that was a real problem.]

It seemed so.

I got up.

[Are you leaving?]

“Yes.”

Now it was time to move again.

Ahbooboo’s story was interesting enough that I was curious about it, but now I really had to move.

[Hey, listen a little more. It’s fun. You’ll be curious.]

Ahbooboo persuaded me.

Surely, Ahbooboo’s story was certainly interesting.

It was very exciting and it did stimulate my curiosity.

But now I have a reason to move quickly.

“I have to settle it as soon as possible.”

[Is there really a need to do that?]

There is.

Exactly, it just happened.

“Hochi is here.”

I felt Hochi’s existence.

I don’t know what the hell he was thinking of coming here.

Hochi won’t last long here.

Even if Yongyong or Grandma came along.

Even if he no longer comes in from the beginning.

There was a limit to how long he could last.

A week, no matter what.

Now, I couldn’t turn back and go save Hochi.

I’ve come too far for that.

To save Hochi, I had to face forward, not backward.

The God of Order had to be slain before the damn Hochi died here.

“Shit”

I was struggling to death because it was already hard, but I suddenly got a time attack.
