I Became the Companion of the Gods
Chapter 30
30 – EP.9 Toward the North -2
An adventurer wandering around the world said this.
Currently, only one-tenth of the world is inhabited by humans……
If an ordinary person said this, everyone would laugh at it, but the adventurer was an elite agent who worked for a government agency for 20 years.
Since his career was giving credence to his remarks, many people were quite shocked.
Because people have always thought that the country they live in is by no means small.
However, the world is wide and there are many things that people do not know.
Even right now, people don’t know what kind of scene is unfolding outside the borders of the country.
It is only said that there is Mother Nature, the land of divine beasts, where even those who wish to commit suicide do not step foot.
We are unknown.
But thanks to courageous people like adventurers, people were able to know a little bit about what Mother Nature is like.
The west is a sandy desert where it’s so hot that you can’t stop sweating.
In the east, there are forests and mountains full of living creatures.
To the south, there is a sea so vast that you can’t see the end.
In the north, there is an endlessly cold snowfield that stings your skin.
Expanded, adventurers told me.
And indeed, the towns near the northern border…….
“Etch!!”
It was filthy cold and the ground was full of snow, making it impossible to reach by car.
Fortunately, there was a reindeer or huskies sleigh that took them to the village, so the worst of walking was averted.
However, due to the nature of the sled, heating like a vehicle heater was not expected, and since the cold wind had to be hit directly, it was filthy cold.
“Etch!! Ugh… It’s cold, it’s cold!!”
“Senior Dahye, we haven’t even arrived at the village where the incident took place yet.”
“But what to do when it’s already cold!”
Senior Dahye doesn’t stop her shivering body as if it’s insanely cold.
“So junior! Give me a warm hug!”
“Ugh! Write!!”
Now that she is cold, I mercilessly pushed her with her feet as she was trying to hug me.
Where does a slave take the body of a precious master… !!
“Dahye is the only person who wears less clothes because she doesn’t know about the cold. After all, Dahye is stupid.”
“There muscle pigs!! Are you going to fight now?”
“It seems to me that Khan made it angry on purpose~? You’re less cold when you’re angry, right?”
“This is crazy! There’s no way you can’t be cold just because you’re angry!”
“Wouldn’t it be better if I got more angry?”
“f*ck the bullsh*t!”
Even in the morning, everyone was depressed because of one video…….
I feel relieved now that the harmonious atmosphere has returned.
I don’t have to worry about the senior agents who came with me, so now I have to take care of my pets so they don’t get cold.
“It’s okay~♪”
“Tia, are you having fun?”
“Quit!”
Tia’s eyes are shining while held in my arms.
I think it’s because the piled up snow and the sleighs running on it are all things I’ve never seen before.
Everything you’re seeing right now must be a mystery to Tia.
I don’t know when I’ll come back to the North after this mission, so let’s leave Tia to enjoy herself.
“Yata said it would fly on its own, so it should be fine, and next time… ….”
Three huskies running to pull the sled at the lead.
And a strange being was stuck between them.
“There you are, Miho.”
“Yes!! Why? West?”
“That… Do you really have to do that? Isn’t it hard?”
“It’s okay! I do it because I want to!”
Miho is driving a sled with huskies while wearing a harness that looks like an adult product.
If he had been pulling the sled in the form of a fox, there would have been no problem, but the current Miho is in the form of a human.
There were so many potential problems.
Ah, ah… !! I’m already crazy…….
Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t stop it.
I thought it would have an adverse effect on Tia’s education, so I tried to get her to stop.
But……
“A problem? Which part is the problem?”
“Isn’t it natural for a beast b*tch to pull a sled?”
“What’s up?”
Is that even a problem for Tia? She tilted her head and said that there was no problem, so I had no choice but to accept it.
But after accepting it, the only thought I had was regret.
It’s a pity that Miho’s appearance is only me and my pet.
If someone else saw it…… Are you crazy human? It was such a shocking scene that the words came out.
“It feels good to think of the old days! A long time ago, I once carried around the West like this…… !”
A memory from when I was 5 years old that crawls out every time I try to forget it.
It is my dark history that I made Miho have mazo tendencies after I just rolled Miho to play horseback riding.
But this time, Miho, who is not a fox, but a human, is treated as a sled dog, so my dark history has been renewed.
f*ck…….
But now I think that’s the way it is.
If my pets are happy, I should be content with that…….
***
The village was swept away by a disaster called Sinsu.
The bodies of the villagers have already been recovered by the government, and the remaining bloodstains have been covered and erased by new snow, leaving only the structures destroyed by the ice blocks.
In a place worthy of being called a ghost town, the ship owner was clearing the snow that had accumulated on a block of ice.
He gently ran his hand through the snow, revealing a red-scarred surface of ice.
It is an ancient rune word that Yata has already finished interpreting.
The ship owner had already checked everything through the video, but he started to examine the ice block carefully, perhaps because he wanted to check it again.
Seonju couldn’t help but frown when he found out what kind of feeling Shin-soo left with this message from the traces made by scraping the ice with his bloody claws after the massacre.
It was because I could feel the obvious hostility in the bloody writing that meant that I would kill any human or companion animal.
“Nanggun.”
“Ah, is that Yata? Did you find anything?”
“Yeah, I found another message from Hati…… Are you okay before that? You don’t look good?”
“It’s okay, just a little…… It’s because I was worried about how to fight.”
“If that’s the case, you don’t have to worry. Dealing with Shin-soo is Shin-soo, and Nanggun just cheers us on from afar, and we’ll take care of Hati!”
“But… !”
“Don’t forget that we, Nang-goon’s companion animals, are also Shinsoo. So what I’m saying is that you don’t have to worry about it alone.”
“That’s right… ….”
The ship owner’s face is smiling faintly.
I could tell he was a little relieved, but I could still see that there was something troubling about him in the dark expression on his face.
That’s probably his own incompetence.
In fact, unlike the terrorist attack, there is nothing the ship owner can do in this Shinsoo fight.
The reality is that even if you want to fight alongside your companion divine beasts, you can’t.
Seon-joo couldn’t bear to raise his head at his own weakness, which was only a hostage even if he stayed by his side.
I didn’t want my companion crow to see such a resentful face.
He pretended to be observing a block of ice and was indignant on the inside.
“You said you found a new message by the way, right? Can you tell me what that means?”
“Yes, I interpreted it simply, but it means that we will raid other human villages tonight as well.”
“I see… ….”
Just as Yata prophesied before, Hati intended to raid and annihilate the human village until the ship owner arrived.
One per day.
A cruel idea to make the ship owner come to visit by step by step trampling on the northern people’s homes and informing the seriousness of the situation.
If the ship owner hadn’t come, he would have had to fight while carrying the value of thousands of lives that had to be sacrificed because of him.
This family was another future predicted by Yata, a future where people live with regrets.
“Then it can’t be helped. Do you know where the nearest town is?”
“There is only one village in this area. I checked it while flying, so it must be.”
“Really? That’s fortunate, you don’t have to worry about which village to raid.”
“How is it? Do you think you will fall for the competent me?”
“Yeah, I fell in love with you a long time ago.”
“Uh… ?”
Hearing an unexpected answer, the ship owner lightly strokes the head of Yata, who blushes.
Then he quickly came out of the building to do what he could and called the senior agents who were searching with him.
If he can’t fight himself, his role is to at least create a comfortable space for his companion gods to fight.
The ship owner, who is well aware of his role, wants to create a battlefield without potential for problems by evacuating the villagers ahead of Hati’s attack.
To do that, the first thing he had to do was convince his senior agents.
“What? You want to go back already? Didn’t find anything?”
“We don’t have much time to spend here, we must get to the nearby town before the sun goes down.”
“May I ask why you are bringing up such words?”
“As we know very little information, each information is important. I guess the activity time of the wolf divine beast is night. So, until nightfall, we have to evacuate the residents of the nearby villages, right?”
“That’s fine~! Besides us, other government agent teams must have already evacuated the residents~”
“Then we must also think about our safety. As you know, we are not here to fight, but simply to gather information. So, if we spend more time here and night comes and we are attacked by the god wolf, it will be a disaster for us.”
“Yeah, but there’s no law saying they’ll attack today, right?”
“Conversely, there is no law to raid on another day. If there is a possibility, I think it is right to go as safely as possible. Senior Dahye.”
“Well, I’m sure he’s right.”
“It would be the worst if I was even attacked by a divine beast in the current situation where I am running around all over the place.”
The two agents nodded at the ship owner’s persuasion and agreed to his will.
However, Dahye has been protesting as if she is dissatisfied with returning without getting any results.
“Yeah, but we also have powerful Shinsoo!”
“Senior, are you trying to force my dragon companion into a dangerous fight?”
At Dahye’s short words, Seonju frowned and glared at her.
The ship owner knows that Dahye didn’t mean that, but he couldn’t help but be angry.
He was lamenting that he couldn’t do anything when Tia, who was younger than himself, would also participate in the fight.
“Mi, sorry! I’m really sorry!! It was my mistake!!”
Dahye kneels down on her floor and apologizes to the point of begging.
Seeing her behavior, Seon-ju bit her lip and suppressed his boiling anger.
It was an expression that said he was still less angry, but he thought he shouldn’t be angry any more.
It was the ship owner’s mind that she didn’t want to waste even a second on such a useless thing.
“I’ll just skip this time. Instead, I want you to agree with me. Are you okay?”
“Gwa, it’s okay! From now on, I will completely obey your words!”
“That’s it, then I have one more favor for you, can you listen to me?”
“Okay! Just say anything!”
“Can I borrow your pet wolf?”
“Huh? Harangi?”
“Yes! It’s because I need to go somewhere urgently.”
“Well, in that case, it’s fine.”
“Then let me borrow it for a while! Thank you, senior!”
The owner of the ship finished her first objective, persuading the agents.
He rode on the wolf of a fellow agent without a second’s delay and left alone for the village that would become the battlefield of the divine beasts.
There are about three hours left until the sun sets.
Determining to do everything she could for her companions, her divine subjects, during this short time, Seonju ran and ran on the snowy field in her blizzard.
I only wish for the safety of my companion gods…….
***
“The agents didn’t come?!”
“Yes, there were no government agents in town.”
“I can’t… !!”
As soon as they arrived at the village, the ship owner faced the worst situation.
Indeed, the villagers were walking around casually in a village where no one was supposed to be.
It’s the worst of the worst situations to have people in a place that will soon become a battlefield for divine beasts.
It was something that should never have happened.
“Mister! Hurry up and tell the villagers to evacuate! Come on!!”
“What, what?! A sudden evacuation?”
“Don’t you know that the village next door was attacked by a divine beast and disappeared? That divine beast is attacking here tonight!! Because it’s not too late now! Hurry up and run away with the people please!!”
The ship owner grabs the arm of a passing villager and shouts as if pleading.
A cold sweat was starting to flow down his cheeks, so that meant he was nervous.
“Come to know this, isn’t he a complete madman? Let go of this!!”
However, his desperate heart was savagely kicked out by the villagers.
“Ah… ! sh*t!! It shouldn’t be like this!!”
The owner of the ship wanted to set up an environment in which the companion diviners could fight smoothly and lay the groundwork to help the diviners even a little.
But his plans went awry.
The basic condition of the plan, that there should be no villagers, was violated.
“I should have brought at least one senior…… !”
He is an unofficial agent of a government agency.
He
He was not supposed to be known as an agent, so he didn’t even have anything to prove that he was an agent.
So, since he had no influence whatsoever, it meant that no one would listen to him no matter how much he shouted to run away.
In order to evacuate people, it was possible only when the senior agents who came with him came, so he hurriedly sent the wolf back…….
I don’t know when they will arrive, so the ship owner can’t do anything other than bite his nails and fret.
“You can’t stay still like this…! If there is no one who will listen to me even a little… !!”
In order to do something at least a little, the ship owner once again wanders around the village, shouting for evacuation, but no one listens to him.
People were ignoring him as if they were treating him as a shepherd boy who had already lied 3 times.
“Why? Everyone must know that the next village was attacked by Shinsoo! Why is no one listening to me… ?”
Frustrated by the unchanging reality, the ship owner ends up giving up in desperation due to self-loathing.
Soon, as if caught in an extreme thought, he started muttering.
“f*ck! Shouldn’t I have no choice but to care what happens to the villagers… ? Or should I blackmail parts of the town to get a little bit…….”
Seonju was never an altruistic person.
In fact, he thinks it doesn’t matter if it becomes a battlefield where people die.
Just……
“As expected, it’s meaningless if we don’t send all those f*cking residents!”
The ship owner swears loudly and is indignant. Because I know it shouldn’t be.
He knows very well that even if he gives up on the villagers, the agents of the same government don’t.
The three senior agents who came with them will try to evacuate people somehow, and eventually the senior agents will also be caught up in the battlefield. It was never the future the ship owner wanted.
“Damn!! What should I do! What the hell should i do… !!”
He tried tearing his brain to come up with a way that didn’t come to mind, but he continued to curse as if he couldn’t come up with a good solution.
If the fox were by his side, he would have been able to evacuate everyone using hallucinations, but now his fox is far away from the village to devise a strategy to fight Hati. He shouldn’t have expected help.
A ship owner who can’t do anything about it.
He was making a grim expression, wondering if there was really no hope, but someone approached him as if the ship owner had no hope at all.
“I have come to help with Yata-sama’s order!”
“Uh… ?”
Around the time when the ship owner’s condition was gradually deteriorating.
There was a helping hand extended to him.
“You… ?”
“I am a believer of the Yata religion in this village who came to Yata-nim to help the ship owner!”
The familiar hoodie badge on a man’s collar. It was a symbol indicating that the man in front of him was a Yata cult believer.
“Are you a Yata cult believer in this village?
“Yes, it is.”
“hahahaha! Is it real… ! How many numbers are you looking ahead? Yata is…….”
Seonju let out a dejected laugh and at the same time sincerely admired it.
I never imagined that there would be cultists worshiping Yata in such a remote place.
“Okay, then the very thing I want you to help me with is…” … !”
“Sir, there is one piece of information I need to tell you in advance!”
“Huh? What information do you need to know? What is that?”
“That… ….”
The ship owner was quite surprised by the surprise appearance of Yata cult members.
However, the church member’s shocking confession was even more surprising than that, and was astonishing beyond surprise.
“So, now, the people of this village made a deal with the wolf god… ?”
“Yes, a divine beast came to this village last night and made a proposal to the people of our village. A deal that will save you if you help yourself without leaving the village.”
“…… So?”
“Of course, our village, which did not want to die, accepted this proposal, and in fact, our village headman ordered people to evacuate today, capturing and detaining government agents.”
“That’s true… ?”
“Yes.”
“Ha… ! hahahaha… !! Ahahahahaha!!”
An animal called a human laughs without realizing it when one emotion is extremely blooming.
This is the same as the ship owner, he also started laughing like a madman.
However, there was one thing that any person would feel when looking at him now.
Everyone could be sure that he never laughed because he was happy, that there was clearly a different emotion in his laugh.
“Ha ha!! Ha…… ! Hey….”
“Yes.”
“I guide you to the house of the chief of the village right now.”
“Ah… All right!”
Soon, the laughter disappears, and only the emotions hidden inside remain, as if they are being expressed openly.
The ship owner was very upset with the current situation.
In his dry eyes and hushed voice, there was a very sharp anger.
Unlike the angry figure, the angry figure of the ship owner, who was angry in a deep yet quiet form, was evoked fear enough to make even the church members who were maintaining a smile immediately shrink.
It was as if he was accurately expressing the words “Kill those who are intrusive”, So the Yata religion judged the current ship owner’s sense of intimidation to be no less than that of the wolf god he met yesterday, and became afraid of the ship owner. I was guided to the village headman’s house.
“Hey, here you go.”
“You mean there’s that village chief here?”
“Yes… ….”
“Good job. There is nothing more to help you now, so evacuate as well.”
“Ah… All right!”
Ignoring the hurriedly running away Yata cultist, Seonju quietly approached the door, taking out a handgun he had hidden in his arms.
Then, without mercy, he kicked the door forcefully with his foot and entered the space inside the door that had been forcibly opened.
“What, what?! Who are you!!”
The people in the family are naturally startled by the sudden invasion of the shipowner’s residence.
A middle-aged man who seemed to be the village chief barely raised his voice, but the answer he got back was a single gunshot.
“Queue!! aaagh!!”
“Honey!!”
“Ah… dad!!”
A village chief screaming after being shot in the leg, and his family screaming as if they are worried about him.
It was a scene overflowing with family love, but Seon-joo’s eyes looking at them were infinitely cold.
“Your lady, release the agents you captured today.”
“Who are you! Suddenly, this tyranny… !!”
-Taang!
“Wow!!”
Gunshots and screams erupted once more simultaneously, blood spraying around the village chief.
“Shut up and do as I say. Otherwise, I’m going to puncture your husband’s bastard’s arm next.”
“Huh… !!”
The village chief’s wife shuddered at the sight of the ship owner, who was glaring at her as if she were serious.
“Keuugh…! What the hell are you…!!”
“If you don’t want to make a hole in your mouth, grow your snout.”
“Kuhup… !!”
The actions taken by the shipowner who broke into the village chief’s house were no different from those of the terrorists he hated so much.
However, I could see how angry the ship owner was when he committed such a terrorist act without any hesitation.
“The kid over there next.”
“Yes… Neet!!”
“You should go outside immediately and tell the villagers through the village broadcaster to evacuate right away.”
“Oh, I see!”
“By the way, you know what happens if you do something stupid, right?”
“Okay… !!”
Even the village chief’s son was sent out, leaving only the ship owner and the village chief in the room.
The ship owner approaches the village chief with his gun pointed at him.
At this, the village head trembled and reacted with fright.
“Heek!! Hee!! Buy, save me!! Please! I don’t want to die!!”
“Don’t worry, I have no intention of killing you.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, as long as you politely answer my questions.”
“I will answer anything!! So please save your life!!”
“Then let me ask you, why did you hold the agents who evacuated you?”
“That’s because of the deal with Shinsu… !”
“Are you saying you won’t kill him if he doesn’t run away and help you?”
“No, that’s right!”
“Ha! What a fool!”
The owner of the ship, who had always kept his expressionless face, listened to the village chief’s answer and started laughing and mocking him as if he had been so foolish.
“You bastard, you and the people of this town wouldn’t know we were lost today if it wasn’t for me.”
“What is that…… ?”
“Your villagers are said to have been eaten by a divine beast today.”
“It can’t be… !! I’m sure you’ll save us if you follow the terms of the deal that Shinsoo put forward!”
“You still don’t seem to understand. What is it that you guys are biting and sucking on, what’s wrong with you, so I’ll keep my deal with you guys?”
“Ah…… !”
“You idiot. Do you still not know that staying and not running away means staying nice to eat?”
“That can’t be!”
“What you should have done was not to stay stuck here, but to run away as far as possible with the help of the agent.”
A foolish village chief who is devastated after learning the truth.
In order to restore his spirit, the ship owner hit the village head several times with the muzzle of his pistol.
“Hey you asshole! Don’t you know that even the time to be frustrated is a waste? Why would I even shoot you?”
“Keep it off!”
“It’s because you, an asshole like you, can’t get your head around if you don’t do this! So, if you know even now, crawl and run away, bastard!!”
“Hey!!”
The village chief trembles in extreme fear.
Reluctantly, the owner of the village grabbed the village head by the scruff of his neck and dragged him outside, threw him to the villagers who were evacuating, told them to stop the bleeding and evacuate together, and left.
The village chief was just a lump of burden until the very end.
Feeling once again that the situation would get worse if an incompetent person became the representative, Seon-ju squealed in the air while squinting his eyes.
The owner of the ship wanted to kill him, but he thought that the bullets were a waste and looked up at the sky to calm his mind.
The sun, which should be burning hot, disappears before I know it, and the sky is filled with the moon shining brightly in the night sky.
Realizing that time was running out, Seon-ju covered his eyes with his hand and bit his molars until he made a crackling sound.
That act is an expression of lingering anger.
But this time, it wasn’t anger toward the incompetent village headman or stupid villagers, but towards himself for not being able to help his pets.
“f*ck… !!”
The sound of the broadcast speaker telling us to evacuate immediately and the screams of the villagers who start running away in panic.
And a sound began to resound in the sky, putting an end to all these noises…….
“Auuu!!”
It is the cry of a wolf longing for the moon,
It was also the sound announcing the appearance of an ice wolf standing on top of a snowy mountain in the distance.
