Egret

Chapter 18. Apostle Su Hun Ho

Thawing was frequent on hillsides leading to shallow mountains and hooves.

Yellow and white spring flowers adorned the path. On the third day they were able to follow the constantly ascending and descending hillsides, they were able to confront a large river that seemed like a dragon lying down.

I looked around, but there seemed to be no way forward but to cross the river.

On the cobbled banks of the river, there was a dense ferry lined with large and small sailboats.

If you use the power of the Spirit, you can cross the river without having to get on a boat. Otherwise, great attention will be focused until you reach the capital. Judas didn't want that to happen.

They once headed to the ferry to save the shipment. The closer I get, the louder the wax grows. The ferry wasn't the only ones who managed the boat.

“Er……. ”

Sage looked around the perimeter with embarrassing eyes.

Growing up in the Imperial Palace, Sage was naturally familiar with the riverside landscape, but the awkwardness he felt was not necessarily so.

“Thawing is very unique in port culture. ”

Oddly enough, tents were erected everywhere around the ferry.

People who built prefabricated buildings, from toilets to bedrooms, were often seen using them as a place of residence.

I also saw Urr rushing to the top unit, hitting the tents and waiting.

“No wonder these are all waiting to cross the river? ”

“Well, Sage. I don't think it's a culture of defrosting. ”

Upon his brother's naive question Judas glanced at the boats hanging from the peg.

“I wish I had a special reason. ”

There were many who tried to cross the river, but there was not a single ship running. There were, of course, many empty boats.

The weather was not particularly bad. Although the clouds were slight, the sky was clear and the wind was good.

Sage fell into much deeper questions than he did a little while ago.

“A special reason? ”

“I don't know what it is, but it seems to have prevented people from crossing this river for a long time. ”

After all, it's a question that strangers don't get an answer when they talk to each other. I grabbed one of the sailors who was netting near me and asked.

“Oops, you must be the guests from the embassy. Of course I don't know. The River Daon is designated by Cheongil and Hongdae. ”

The middle-aged architect who pressed Sappard replied kindly.

A day when a ship can be operated is referred to as a Hong-il, and a day when the ship is prohibited from operating is called a Hong-il.

This is due to the meaning given to colour, which in the thaw meant ‘hope’ and 'passage’, and on the contrary, red mainly symbolized ‘prohibition’ or ‘discomfort’.

According to him, it was Hong Il who was unable to operate the ship today.

“Then how long will it take for Chung to come back? ”

Instead of saying a few days, the architect lifted his finger and pointed at the river.

“It's up to Daon when the navy opens. ”

Edan was silent because it was not well judged whether the word "Daon" meant the name of the river or whether another Daon meant that it lived in the river.

After a deep sigh of silence, the architect finally added advice and began to trim the net.

“Keep in mind. You must never cross the river unless you allow it. Hajisa, if you know that your life is precious, you won't be able to buy a boat if you give me a million dollars. Huh.”

It was hard to tell whether they were frustrated by the situation and whether the visitors came because they were poor.

When I went to the other boat and asked, the situation was the same. No one wanted to get aboard. I didn't even know how long it lasted.

The only way to cross the river was to sit there ignorantly and wait for the blues to die.

If you miss the time, the vicious cycle that you have to wait for without bottoming out again is repeated.

When Edan reported on the ineffective situation, the group looked at the river with distressing feelings.

I got my feet tied up for the wrong reason in a place I didn't even think of.

It was Judas's job to decide whether to use the power of the Spirit to cross or wait as vaguely as anyone else to become the Blue One.

Before he set a course, he approached the river and looked at the water. The river was deep and green enough to know what was in it. However, even at the middle of the river, the color seemed to be heavily oiled and spoiled.

In addition, toxic bubbles were rising in certain areas.

The boaters saw the black river and the rising bubbles and distinguished the blues from the reds.

According to people, the day they were allowed to cross the river was a clear, bubble-free blue day.

Judas dips his hands slightly in water. Water temperatures were cooler than normal.

"Here you go, you brute. What's in the river? I don't think other spirits are messing around. Right?

Uni sat down on Rooney's nostrils and asked.

Even though it was the same natural system spirit, the wind attributes were relatively dull on the condition of the water. The blue wolf gathers its eyes toward the uni located at the back of my nose.

"Not the Spirit. And the bruises.....

"Then what? You mean the Blue Wyvern again?

Suddenly Tony gets into a conversation, and Looney's words, which he was about to deny something more, are cut off.

Somehow, the blue wolf's eyes became slightly moistened.

…… Similar. It's a snake.

Baam?

The three spirits looked back at Fluvi in unison.

“Pee.”

Fluvi, who was quietly held in Baikal's arms, slammed his tail.

Fluvy, a dragon with a reduced size, reads the spiritual kings' gaze with sensitivity.

In fact, Wyvern also resembled a snake. But Wyvern is clearly a dragon.

There are many differences between dragons and snakes, but they diverge from the presence or absence of wings.

[Weapon] An eastern hatchet ring that did not grow into a dragon.

"Heh. I've never seen Eastern Hatchlings!

In fact, the Eastern dragons used to be dragon clans who had left the dragon system before. Having a hashtag isn't weird. But it's not uncommon.

The Eastern dragons differed in their childhood from Western dragons who grew up safely as sex dragons under the extreme protection of their parents, with strong powers from birth.

The dragons of the east leave the place without holding it when they lay their eggs.

You have to be born alone and learn how to survive before you wake up from an egg.

If he was born with all the power from his youth, like a Western dragon, it wouldn't be hard for him either, but before he grew up as a dragon, the 'weapon’ was a weakness that could not be used in terms of race power, namely prophecy.

The ecosystem was too harsh to survive with such a large body and a small amount of magic than a normal snake.

So not all of these weapons grow into dragons. Only then will the dragon awaken and be reborn.

It was just a kind of big, unique snake until it went through the process.

Of course, it was possible to flip a boat or bring a storm to threaten people.

But why is this weapon blocking a man's belly?

For Lee Yun, whose goal was to stay quiet and survive for a thousand years, the situation was a prank that had nothing to see.

There won't be anything good in other people's eyes…… Ugh.

Sitting at the back of Rooney's nose, Uni mutters with a wink.

For spirits who share emotions with contractors, sudden changes in magicians' emotions have been transmitted like electric shocks.

When the contractor feels strong emotions, the spirit is also forcibly captivated by those emotions.

Uni looks up at Judas with a slight shrinkage.

Igret…….

“Ah.”

He immediately sank the emotion that was shaking Smurf's head.

“I'm sorry.”

"Sniff, it's not for you to apologize. What's the matter with you?

Ow!

The spirits, who had been exposed to his emotions for a very brief time, were tearing each other down.

Tony, like the youngest child, used to cry all the time. It wasn't just one thing to define, but the grief of being eaten by the heart was the dominant one.

‘I made a mistake like this. ’

Usually he was good at controlling emotions, but he was momentarily out of control.

It might be because of the process of adapting to life as Judas, or the human emotion that had hung the bars so nicely began to leak out.

Judas sighs with a small sigh at the mouth.

“Judas? ”

The spirits weren't the only ones watching him.

Standing next to him, the servants were looking at the river, and they were worried that something might happen to him that hardened his face.

“Are you a serious opponent of the centromere that causes this problem? ”

“Well, that's not why. Rather, he's so fragile and pathetic. ”

“Yes?”

If it is a strong man's travesty, it is better to press his nose to inflict punishment.

If you are a vicious monster, you can defeat it. If you have a bad curse, you can even find a way to break it.

The opponent, however, was a young life that was as fragile as a sprout.

If a weak, pure creature has not grown up and been bitten by the scorched darkness, there is no turning back.

"You've become a commander?

Boom!

Baek Ho, who was watching as if he was crippled across the river as he climbed a tall branch and returned to the situation, jumped sharply to his side.

Rooney, who first found out about it, posited that he was hesitant.

…… That's what I said.

I knew it. There are commanders in this country these days.

Baek Ho licks his front foot and picks his fur and speaks to him.

I hate to admit it, but now that we don't have a contractor, all of us are in danger. If only I had survived the Guardian Specializer, I might already have been attacked by the Advancement Specializer, the Blue Dragon and the Peacock!

"Did you specialize in defense?

Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Why are you looking at me like that?

Uh, there's nothing I can't do, but something.....

Baek Ho, who squirmed his beard in his tremendous gaze, grunts and opens his mouth again.

Anyway, if you finish commanding once, it's over. That Lee Gun is still the descendant of the dragon, but I'd rather take back the violent self once. But there's only a few days left to do that.

Wait, that means.

Kill.

Judas looks down at the slippery backhoe.

It was as Baek Ho said. A commanding being instinctively covets death.

Until now, Lee Gun has been suppressing himself somehow, but over time he will try to kill more people.

Now I have to kill him and stop.

I would have lived if I had cleansed you earlier before the commandment was completed. It's too late now.

Judas grabbed his gaze from the blue pupil of Baek Ho, who was facing him.

Under the beautifully sparkling river, there was the sacrifice of a child who never grew up.

This weapon was suffering from enduring the black desire to boil as much as a bubble boiling over the river.

“A young weapon encroached upon by the commander is in here. ”

“ ……! ”

The sullen was short. The servants waited for the master's choice, which would lead them apart from being surprised.

“So we're going to move in the wind. ”

It was not the right choice, preferably with the intention of getting to know more people's lives than convenience.

Judas smiles bitterly at the same eyes as he asks.

“Because I don't have the courage to cross this river. ”

The green wind, which Uni dreadfully summoned at the end of his speech, suddenly wraps them around.

Suddenly a whirlwind blows and the tents flutter and the river waves.

Before the great commotion spread, Uni's wind wrapped around Judas' group and hid his end like a mirage.

Just before his vision changed, Edan looked at the middle of the river where the bubbles were pouring.

‘In other words, what was your courage about? ’

The black bubbles no longer soared. Instead, I burned a wet tree and lit it up like the rest of the smoke and the Sakaman blood just sprayed on.

In deep, dark waters, Lee Gun, who had not fulfilled my lifespan, instantly pierced his heart on a frozen spear.
