Desire

The Demon King noticed what Ajin was trying to do. Acting like that for humans in the same world now, in order to receive their worship. If this world is a reality other than a game, being worshipped does not mean that we are not human. A world thousands of years ago would have been possible, but it is almost impossible for mythological mythology to push away existing statutes and worship alone to become a new saint.

‘But not here. This is a game.’

The situation is good. Gratia is destroyed, and most of the priests in Gracia are gone. Even the surviving statues are in a position where they don't know when they will perish. In this world where man is persecuted, if we save him and are worshiped, we can quickly become adults. The "player" being an adult is also a calibration of the system.

“We have to catch him and kill him. ”

Jabesh speaks. He kneels and bows to the Demon King.

“If you let him go, the other horsemen will be harmed, and the human world has surrendered...” “You're mistaken. ”

The Demon King opens his mouth to Jabesh. The Demon King's very existence has become a great strain on her shoulders. Haveth gasps and swallows his breath because of the crushing power above his head.

“What I'm trying to do in this world is not surrender. I've just destroyed empires and civilizations for my own amusement. What I wanted to do was the end, and I did what I wanted to do. ”

Victorious in the war, the empire fell. The human wrath falls to the livestock. The Demon King didn't touch that. All the Demon King has done is summon the Pandemonium, wage a war and win the war. The horses head for the land they lost, and they use humans as livestock.

“It's not my concern that the other Horses are being harmed. You're responsible for what you've done.” “No, that's not... a responsibility! You're saying the Demon King won't take responsibility?” “Did he come to kill me? ”

The Demon King asked.

“If he had come all this way, tried to kill me and succeeded. Yeah, I'm gonna take responsibility for what I did. But he didn't come to kill me. Then why do I have to move? ”

The words of Jabesh are blocked.

“You want me to be unpleasant about his behavior. I don't intend to act. I'm not uncomfortable with his behavior. Rather pleasant. I like what he's trying to do. So I won't move. ”

The Demon King smiled as he said so.

“The loss of the city you ruled is because you are weak. I can't help what happened because you were weak. Perhaps the other Horsemen will say the same thing.” “But...”

“Don't say it anymore. ”

The Demon King smiled and said. His face was smiling, but his eyes were not smiling. The Demon King's ferocious gaze flashes beyond the black mist that covered his face.

“I feel good now. But I feel bad talking to you. ”

The Demon King raised his hand to say so. The Demon King gestures, and her body disappears. Haveth's body was sent away by a forced space transition.

“By the way... I didn't expect to grow up. I thought I'd level up at the most. ”

The Demon King stares at the darkness, muttering like that. The space cracks open, revealing the sealed scent of Raw Snow, Persian and Camila. The Demon King laughs joyfully as he looks at them.

“I knew it. Good job taking it. ”

The Demon King's smile rings yesterday.

The Revolutionary Army's Node has not been identified by Rivera. Originally, he knew Rivera's cosmic messenger ID, but his cosmic friendship with her was cut off after she had taken Rivera's lands in the past.

‘I wouldn't have contacted you first if I had any friendship left. ’

Ajin doesn't like Rivera. The same is true of LaQuiz who fought with her. But she needed a revolutionary force to lead. Of course, Azin had no intention of working with Rivera to train with the revolutionaries.

What Azin needed was a force to follow him. As it swells, the entire continent should know the name of Azin and know the actions of Azin. That is the way to become an adult.

Azin has already become the savior of tens of thousands of people by destroying Lebacore and rescuing the persecuted human being there. Now they were living in the shadow space of Azin. But there were limits to that. Providing supplies or supplies was not easy, and we could not keep them in the shadows for long. It may be safe there, but it's locked away in a confined space and we don't know what will happen.

I said, "Where are you?" ’

Azin smiles in relief. In the world of First, the location of the Revolutionary Army is unknown. But in reality, it was different. Although the world of First fell by the Horses, most players were enjoying the situation. Rather, they were exposed to their activities in a diverse first community, whether they were attracted to resist, adapt and live in this fallen world.

The most energetic are the wizards who have mastered dark magic. They either signed with the Horsemen or went under them to enjoy their benefits. Players, other than him, were living in the world in their own way.

What Ajin noticed was players from the Revolutionary Army. Through their posts, Ajin was able to see where the Revolutionary forces were based.

The southern end of the Gracia Empire.

The Kingdom of Nornia.

The First contains three empires, two kingdoms, and one kingdom. The Siolence where the Espers live. A line that Muslims live on. Gracia, where wizards and knights live. So these three empires and the Hemonia Empire. The Kingdom of Gallios, the Kingdom of Nornia.

Among them, the Kingdom of Gallios was destroyed by the invasion of Gracia, and it belonged to Gracia. The subsequent defeat of Gratia by the war with the Mages led to the destruction of the islands that were originally the Kingdom of Gallios and the island that belonged to the Kingdom of Hemonia.

But it wasn't the Kingdom of Nornia.

‘By the way, I've never been to Nornia. ’

It was strange to think about it now. Nornia is never a small kingdom. Only the size of the territory makes it half the size of Gracia.

‘That's weird.'

It raises questions. Until now, when I am unconscious, when I am conscious of a place called Nornia, many questions come together. Azin looked for a lot of information without leaving any questions. Obviously, not a single player has opened a Nornian post since the First, except for the Revolutionary Army. Among many and many players, there is not a single player who has been to Nornia.

That's not the only weird thing. It seems the Horsemen have not invaded Nornia either. Only Nornia remained intact in a ruined world. According to the Revolutionary Army, Nornia still had a king, and the people who lived there didn't seem to care much about him even though they knew that the empires were destroyed and that the Horsemen invaded the war.

Azin thought about the Nornia he knew. Nornia is home to the world's largest misrels and Oregon mines. Many Dwarves live in Nornia. A civil war broke out between the Mythril Mine and the West. Those memories were years ago. According to the Revolutionary Army, the Civil War has already ended and Nornia has been restored to one kingdom.

"Why don't the Mages touch Nornia?" It shouldn't be that hard to conquer Nornia if you're a top Horseman. ’

Even the Empire was wiped out by the Horsemen. No matter how many weapons and armor are made of misrels and ducks in Nornia, it cannot threaten the Demons. Then why did the Mages leave Nornia behind?

I had to go to Nornia to check on him.

Azin and Devello fly the sea. The Kingdom of Nornia was far from the southernmost corner of Gracia, but the distance between Azin and Devello was not a big problem.

I was flying for a while.

The weather has changed.

The clouds move. The black clouds roll over the sky and the sea flutters. The thunderous sound of lightning resounds in the sky. Although it is the weather of the sea that changes constantly, Azin sensed that this climate phenomenon was not natural. The strange energy that I had never felt before was wrapped around the sky. It wasn't enough to threaten Azin, but he stopped and looked up at the sky. The clouds split apart and the blue light descends. The roaring blue light stops at Azin and Devello shortly, and it swells enormously.

“... dragon? ”

Azin's mouth opened.

Light became a dragon. It was an eastern dragon, not a dragon. A dragon with the shape of a snake with a blue scale shakes its beard. A stag's horn overhead catches my attention. Ajin lived on the frontier, but he had never seen a dragon look like that before. But the dragon wasn't that big. It was at most the size of a snake.

Size is not important. The energy of dragons was foreign. It wasn't strong enough to be dangerous, but I cared.

“Human?”

The dragon did not open its mouth. But his voice rang in the room. Azin nods, looking at the dragon.

“Who are you? ”

“I am the Blue Dragon, one of the guardians of Nornia. ”

Blue Dragon introduced himself. Defending Nornia? Azin grimaces and asks. As soon as Azin tried to say something, the body of the Blue Dragon flinched.

“... Hmm. ”

The expression on the blue dragon was unknown, but Azin felt a bit embarrassed. He hesitates and sighs deeply. Then I turned around.

“... Tara. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“Aren't you going to Nornia? You cannot enter Nornia without going through me.” “Nornia will come out at this rate.” “If you want to challenge the impossible, don't stop it. But even the Demon Lord cannot enter Nornia without going through me. You're better than the Demon King?” “... The Demon King cannot enter Nornia?” “All sinister beings cannot enter Nornia. It's an old promise. You are also a human and an ominous creature. It is impossible to enter Nornia even if you want to.” “If I ride you, can I go to Nornia? Why are you trying to get me into Nornia? ”

Azin asked the Blue Dragon. The blue dragon was reluctant to burn the azin. While hesitating, Blue Dragon was going to take Azin and Devello to Nornia, which meant that someone had commanded him.

“... because the Virgin Patriarch told me to meet you. ”

Blue Dragon replies, bride. I don't know who it is, but it appears to be a blue dragon. Azin asks a lot of questions, but he doesn't ask the Blue Dragon. Azin and Devello climb up behind the Blue Dragon's back. Surprisingly, the ride was not bad.

“I never thought I'd burn an ominous creature on my back. ”

Blue Dragon mutters like that.

Azin imagined flying in the sky on a dragon, but that did not happen. As the sun sets and the landscape changes, Azin and Devello are not on the sea. As soon as the landscape changed, the blue dragon changed its appearance to light, not the shape of the dragon, and laid down the pain.

“Was the Blue Dragon rude? ”

Someone asks for Azin, who is standing on the ground.

“Or was it rude of me to ask him? ”

Look back at the direction you heard the sound. The woman in the sky robe was looking at him. Azin stares at her and flinches. The woman's face resembled that of what Azin knew. Though the shape of the lengthened head was different from the atmosphere,

She has the same face as Rivera.

“... Are you the maiden of the Blue Dragon? ”

Azin looks at the woman and asks. The woman did not seem to understand the young adversary in Azin's gaze. She tilts her head once and replies.

“Yes, that's right. ”

Azin was convinced in his heart.

The Doppelgänger of Rivera is a Nordic bride.
