Hero without Blood or Tear

[209] Slate of Doom. (3)

“Where are the pillars of creation? ”

“It is 7,000 light-years from Likentiatus. ”

... It's so far away.

With that distance, I don't think there's any way to move unless I'm in the Dark Army.

“Home to the stars. Speaking of which, we'd better get going. ”

“Right away?”

“Is there a problem? ”

“Oh, no. ”

The 7,000-year walk next door made it somewhat difficult to accept. But I was already in front of the pillar of creation when suddenly I felt the light and space stretch.

“Ahh!”

When I saw the pillars of my own creation, I was speechless. It was three massive masses of interstellar gas and interstellar dust.

But there was more to it. The pillar of creation boasted a black presence with huge starlight in the background.

“How big are these? ”

“The height of the largest left column is approximately 4 light years. ”

“My God, four light-years. ”

This lump, made of gas and dust, was like a three-column stand.

“Why is the top of the pillar so bright? ”

“It's because there are new stars gathered there. ”

In Goethe's poem, "I exist to marvel!” There is a phrase, "I thought," about the pillar of creation.

“How do I express this greatness...? ”

I wanted to express my appreciation, but there was no way to sing that greatness in human language.

“The Confederates of Darkness cannot find words to recount this wonder, so they keep their mouths shut. So don't express it. Feel it. ”

That was the right answer. The dark forces are conceived in this overwhelming place.

“A great army of darkness was born here, though the Dark Army has its own home in every part of the universe. ”

“Did the Great One come from the pillar of creation? ”

“No, this body has always existed. Before any dark army was born. ”

I have no idea when it started. My curiosity rose, but I didn't ask for the right time.

“Let's get inside. ”

The boiling abyss leads me inside the pillar of creation.

“Ugh... ”

As I approached, I continued to wonder. There are massive swirls of dust and gas forming in all directions.

“This is like a factory that makes stars. ”

“It's an appropriate expression. Ballersted. But our business is deeper. ”

As you follow the path of the boiling abyss, the darkness in all directions becomes darker. I could feel a clear density of gas and dust.

“A seed is born that will grow here as a great army of darkness. ”

There are many ways a great army of darkness can be born, but it is said to be the most authentic and powerful.

“I saw a dark seed in the body of a dragon statue the other day. ”

“Possibly. But the soil itself is nothing more than a humble persona, so it does not germinate greatly. Whereas look here. It's a different place where giant stars are born. ”

There was a great darkness swirling before my eyes, but the power I felt was great. Being like me seemed to crumble to death even if I got close.

“Can I handle it? ”

“That's enough for you. Ballersted.”

The boiling abyss extends a giant tentacle and pushes it into the center of the vortex. And then I pulled out something shiny. It was a bead that looked like a brilliantly glowing Obsidian.

“It's not the shape it normally looks like, but it's been modified to make it easier for you to handle. ”

The seeds of darkness are small enough to reach into the palm of your hand.

“With this, you'll always be able to join the Dark Army. But if you become a great army of darkness, you will never return to humanity again. Consider and decide.”

“Thank you for your consideration. ”

“Balasted, now I must face the unspeakable darkness. I wish I could give you more time, but it's hard. ”

“Thank you very much. ”

The boiling abyss is busier than the President of the United States. However, I can feel the urge to take some personal time like this. In fact, I don't know that this is a lot of favoritism.

“I'll send you to Likentiatus. ”

Before answering, the space-time spirals in a spiral. And when everything was back to normal, I was in a space where I could see the planet Likentias.

“Ah…! ”

You're back.

It's probably just the same time you're feeling overwhelmed. I wasn't sure I'd see him again just when I left, but coming back with a slap on the back of a man crouching in the grave.

“Hahaha!”

I felt better, so I burst out laughing. Those who are crouching in the grave are probably being hunted by hunters by now. There's no more smile in your mouth than the fall of an enemy.

Guwoowoo!

As I entered the atmosphere of Likentiatus, I looked down and thought it was a beautiful planet. However, as the situation on the ground became more and more detailed, that thought quickly disappeared.

It was because the geography had changed throughout the Empire at a glance. It would have been devastating to have survived the disaster.

Dresden, the former capital of Sachsen, was swallowed up by the sea and disappeared without a trace. It wasn't just Dresden. The whole empire was devastated.

Seeing that, I was deeply troubled. You need strength to fix things like that. But do I really have to be the Dark Army?

When the Darkness becomes a great army, all of my humanity will be over. In other words, you will be different from Ballerstead Baller until now.

Even the parts that I cherished when I was a human are meaningless. Just the woman who is with me right now. I like Valpurgis' beautiful face and want to pet his luscious ass.

But when you become a great army of darkness, that doesn't really matter. I don't know if I can love the women around me then. Because it doesn't fit. You'll be too insignificant for me.

A woman is just one of the many problems she will face in the future. The empire that you have so determined to defend will be worthless.

I will succeed in defending the Empire, but I don't know what I've done.

“Perhaps you will leave Likentiatus. For everyone.”

The boiling abyss gave me something precious, especially among the seeds of darkness. If you use it, you will definitely get into a political quarrel at the portrait level.

I'm sure it'll be fun. That's a hobby. Use the hundreds of millions of factions under the command to conquer a nebula and to conquer a cult....

It's just a hunch, but I think I'm going to be incredibly active.

But the question is, is it really me?

I was hoping for a happy ending... No, it's Han Ze-woo from Earth.

“Hmm……. ”

I arrived on the ground while I was thinking.

“Yes... ”

If only Aquila could be dealt with, you wouldn't have to be the Dark Army. I've decided to hold off on the Seed of Darkness case. I don't mean to be indecisive, but I thought you'd come home. You can put off worrying for a while.

When I arrived in Munich, I was relieved that it was not much different from before I left. Valfurgis is doing well. As I walk around, a group of soldiers stop me.

“What are you doing? ”

“Hmm?"

I didn't expect to be stopped in Munich, but I felt like I was wrapped in armor.

“Pre-elect Wittenbuyer. ”

“Oh, you know what? Are you sure?”

Everyone seemed surprised. But I hesitated as if I didn't believe it easily.

“Please wait a moment. ”

Immediately, a soldier rushes in and brings someone back. I smiled when I saw that person.

The little girl in the nun's outfit, running hard on her little legs, was the former abbot, Marie.

“Who are you! ”

I shouted loudly, but I could hardly bear the laughter because my voice was cute. Marie was still lovely.

“Don't you recognize me? ”

I only knew the situation when I asked. Why didn't Marie recognize me? I don't look like much.

“Oops.”

I smiled bitterly. It was baked in a heat of 2,000 to 3,000 degrees to break through the atmosphere, and the armor was covered in soot. White armor was unbelievable even though it was black from the beginning.

Moreover, I had a lot of recesses and broken parts after fighting. This is gonna suck.

“It's me, Marie. ”

“Ugh? Huh? Is this your voice? ”

I took off my helmet instead. I'm tired of waiting for the helmet hookup to open. I gave the order to disarm it at once. Then the helmet flew upward.

“Marie! ”

As soon as I showed my face, I hugged Marie as hard as I could.

“Marie! Didn't you miss me? ”

Suddenly, Marie shifts in shock.

“Yikes! You're crazy! You can't just hug a nun like that! ”

“It doesn't matter.”

“I care! Besides, they bury it in their clothes! You!”

Marie scowls at the white nun when she's covered in soot, and I keep slapping her cheeks, saying I won't let her go.

Margareta, who was caught by me, became immobilized after the destruction of that powerful storm. I think I hid behind Marie's butt in Bastogne last night.

“No! I have to wash my clothes again! ”

“Hold still! Marie!”

* * *

Everyone's coming for my return.

Valpurgis, Callione, Daltagnan, Roelin, the loving mother, Marie. There were dazzling beauty all around. It was a cliché expression, but all I had to say was the flower field.

“Balor, what's wrong with your face? ”

Marie still frowns as she hugs the nun and rubs her cheeks in public.

“Oh, it's full of tentacles when it goes into space. ”

Something cosmic is a signature tentacle. I've seen things that wriggle without a grudge. It wasn't necessarily tentacles. It was full of weird things.

I couldn't get used to seeing beautiful women like flowers while I was suffering from it. They look at me and ask me if I'm okay. Oh, my God, you're so sweet. There was only one person in space who wanted to kill me.

“Thank you for your concern. ”

In fact, Pezamut and Schwarzetoifel had to come, but they were more likely to have a fight, so they decided to look at them separately.

Marie and the Blood and Death Demon King Pezamut, whom Valpur worshipped, have long been enemies. If we see each other's faces, we'll get stabbed in the face. Of course, I will refrain from making it a situation, but I won't need to make it uncomfortable on purpose.

“Balor.”

As if he could not bear it, Valpurgis sat down and began to hug me and kiss me. No matter who was watching me, I didn't care. Her sugary lips barely let go of me.

“Huh-huh-uh. ”

You hear Valpurgis' nostrils ringing in your ears. In fact, I already made a mess once. But Valpurgis couldn't help but look at my face. He must have been worried sick. I felt sorry for him.

“Look. The grandeur of the Cabin Lady. ”

The heavy tone of the moonlight remains. After a while, I took off my lips and saw the women lining up behind Valpurgis in turn.

Somehow, a cheerful tone, he took his place cold and was applying something to his lips, looking at his hand mirror.

“What are you all doing? ”

When you are embarrassed, Calliope asks you with a look on his face, "What did you do that for?"

“Don't you see? I lined up to kiss you. Lord.”

The audacity didn't bring out anything. But whether I do or not, I sit on my knees with an enchanting smile as if Calliope was waiting for me.

“Lord, it's a breathless battle. ”

It was the only time I could not even get close to Mariman, and I was curled up in trouble.

“Should I... stand? ”
