I Became the Companion of the Gods

137 – EP.28 Rasvir -6

The dragon crashed.

Agera, the guardian dragon of this land, has finally fulfilled her command.

The one who has always protected the kingdom from the founding of Rasbir until now.

Because he was the one who, together with His Majesty the King, took care of ten thousand people and brought us peace.

Everyone on earth wept for him.

From an old woman who wanted to see her dying, to a young man who praised him, to a child who cried at the sight of his parents crying.

There was no one who did not shed tears.

No, just one… there was one

Dear King Lucius, Your Majesty.

Did you think that one of the pillars that had been protecting the kingdom had disappeared, so you had to stand firm?

When everyone was heartbroken and sad, only that person was watching Agera-sama’s death calmly.

From noble mtl dot com

Looking at His Majesty’s back as healthy as a general, many knights and vassals once again swore eternal loyalty.

But why? What seems to be a faint smile hanging over His Majesty’s face…….

Did my eyes go crazy for a while?

-Sarak!

It is the second day since the funeral for the first guardian dragon to rest comfortably.

Today, His Majesty has assigned an important task to our Knights.

As Agera-sama passed away, he ordered us to scout the outside world that was revealed.

In a few months, Frisia-sama will take over Agera-sama’s will and create a new space, but what use is scouting….

Your Majesty’s orders had to be followed without hesitation.

In this way, our knights leave the palace and the capital and head to the outside world.

I expected it to be an ascetic road in many ways, but it felt good to be able to stop by my hometown on the way.

Father and mother…….

I haven’t seen you since I became a knight, but I hope you’re well… ?

-Sarak!

Two weeks have passed since I parted ways with my hometown that greeted me brightly.

Our knights finally reached the top of the Leberus Mountains on the border of the kingdom, and their eyes widened at the strange sight.

After crossing the mountain range, a new landscape opened up!

A terrain full of golden sand, heat hotter than summer in Rasvir Kingdom, and plants full of sharp thorns.

Everything was so new that I couldn’t believe my eyes.

This is how the world outside was supposed to be.

I felt once again how great Agera-sama’s power was.

Originally, I heard that there is only darkness beyond the Leberus Mountains…….

Anyway, we step into a new world with a beating heart.

It’s hot enough here to make you want to throw away your real armor!

-Sarak!

Something has happened to my body the past few days.

My whole body started to heat up like crazy.

At first, I thought I would eat the heat from the strong sun, but this was my mistake.

Because the members around me were all suffering from the same symptoms as me.

Even some of the members are constantly pouring out gastric juices and can’t even eat properly.

It seems that everyone is suffering from a disease in the outside world.

It’s unfortunate that I couldn’t see the outside world, but I’ll give up scouting and return to the kingdom using the authority of the vice-captain.

Can healers in the kingdom cure our diseases?

I’m worried about it, but I can’t help it right now. I have no choice but to trust them…….

-Sarak!

Something went wrong.

We were not to return to the kingdom.

No, I shouldn’t have set foot in the outside world from the beginning.

Although the members around him died one by one, they suddenly came back to life and started attacking the same teammates.

The members whose bodies and skin have changed to hideous look at us like enemies and endlessly swing their swords.

I don’t know why it’s suddenly like this, but I can’t leave it like this.

I had no choice but to kill one of the members who had been eating the same meal with my own hands.

I’m sorry, Jair….

I will definitely take responsibility for your wife and children.

I made that promise, but the swollen flesh on my legs is bothering me colorlessly.

It was painful. Even though it was on my leg, it hurt as if my intestines were twisting.

Will I change like Jair?

-Sarak!

Father… Mother… Jayre….

Sorry…….

……

-Turn up!

I covered the diary of a knight I killed.

I couldn’t read the contents after that because it was stained with blood.

“Haa… !!”

I don’t know how many times I’ve seen the comments left by the residents here.

Stories that all end up suffering from plague and suffering.

I ended up collecting only the worst books with no happy endings.

I’ll have to burn it down sooner or later.

‘Still, I arrived without being bored.’

Removing the back from the tree he was leaning on for a while, he stood up.

Then he moved forward, brushing away the lumps of mud that clung to his hips.

In front of me was a lake that looked clean and clear.

For some reason, all the terrible and cruel sights I had seen until now felt like lies.

However, when I look back and see the forest stained with the blood of animals, I am brought back to reality.

A beggarly plague that infects not only humans but also animals.

Except for the Leberus Mountains from the diary, blood has always followed the path I took.

As if I could never wash away this filth…….

‘It doesn’t matter what the dirt is, but… ….’

I don’t know what to do if even this clean lake becomes dirty because of me.

The scale Agera gave me points to the bottom of the lake.

In other words, it is essential to enter the lake to meet Freesia.

It’s enough to dry wet clothes by lighting a fire, but I’m worried that the blood from the station that is smeared on my body will adversely affect the lake.

I can’t help but go…….

‘This land is almost destroyed anyway, so it wouldn’t matter if the lake was polluted, right?’

I took a deep breath, covered my nose with my hand, and threw myself into the water.

I was startled by the temperature of the water, which seemed to freeze even my marrow.

I should have soaked myself a little before going in so that my body could adapt to the water……

If the contract with the divine beasts hadn’t strengthened his body, he might have suffered a heart attack.

Just as there is a saying to cross a stone bridge, you should refrain from acting recklessly as much as possible.

‘Has it come yet? I’m slowly running out of breath….’

I’m swimming as hard as I can towards the place the scales are guiding me to, but the distance from the destination is far greater than expected.

Even if it wasn’t so, it was a situation where the muscles of the body were coldly hardening, and it was difficult to breathe.

You may die from drowning or hypothermia.

Wouldn’t it be bad to go back to the ground and warm up and then come back?

-Ugh!!

The moment I was struggling with what to do, the scales that had been guiding me suddenly began to vibrate violently.

As if we had arrived at our destination.

‘The space is distorted… ….’

The same phenomenon as when I entered Rasvir Kingdom was spreading within my reach.

Now that it was clear that Freesia was inside, she decided to squeeze through the warped space without hesitation.

– Awesome! Awesome!

This time, the bones are still screaming.

Even if it was helped by Agera’s scales, it was an act of forcibly passing through a blocked space, so it was unavoidable that the body twisted somewhat.

It’s okay though. It’s not to the point where I can’t stand it.

“Puha!!”

After passing through the twisted space and barely reaching a cave-like place, the lungs that were lacking in the meantime are filled with air.

Was the air so sweet?

Suddenly, a question that lingered in my head made me stop for a moment.

Thinking back, it reminded me of the fact that I couldn’t taste the sweetness, and I moved her feet again.

‘Ehh….’

As I punch myself in the head, I light a small fire in the palm of my hand.

To warm up the cold body even a little.

I really wanted to make a big fire, but if I did, Freesia in the cave might die from carbon monoxide poisoning.

I haven’t heard that Shinsoo will die from carbon monoxide poisoning, but it won’t hurt to be careful in advance…….

Anyway, it’s been 10 minutes since I followed a straight road while drying my wet body and clothes.

At that time, curses came out of my heart.

A clear sound resonated throughout the space I was in.

“Who are you?”

Someone who conveys his intentions without revealing his true face.

I found out that the owner of the sound was Freesia at the slightly childish voice.

hahahahaha, it’s even weirder not knowing that you broke into the space you created.

“Can’t you hear me? Who are you and what brought you here?”

“My name is Yoo Seon-ju. Pricia, I came all the way here to meet you.”

“Yoo Seon-joo… ? Hearing the name, it seems like he came from outside, but how did he manage to come to where I am alive?”

“That’s because I was asked by your mother. With her help, she was able to get here safely.”

“…… When it comes to mother, is she referring to my mother who passed away not too long ago?”

“Right.”

“… ….”

“Huh? What’s wrong? Why are you not saying anything?”

However, Freesia did not respond to my words.

Did something go wrong inside the cave?

Her hurriedly To help her, I tried to jump into her depths, but…….

-Tadadadak!

Before that, I heard someone running across from me.

A woman with light blue hair similar to Agera.

She’s completely identical to Agera, but she looks like a decade or so younger than her. A woman was running towards me at breakneck speed.

As she was thinking about why she was in such a hurry, her eyes were filled with anger.

He made me run to the other side of the road and run away.

“Wait a minute?! Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“Shut up and stand there! You bastard who insults the deceased and even pad-rips!!”

“Oh… !!”

I said it as if it were natural, but looking back, the lines I spoke were her words that showed off her personality for her.

Because her mother, she has now ended her life and is in the dragon’s tomb.

But doesn’t she know that there is a dragon’s tomb?

“Oh, oh must! Calm down for a moment and listen to me!”

“Search! Pad Ripper!!”

“Keep off?!”

Guardian Dragon’s drop kick was stronger than any opponent he encountered here.
