Hunter of the Perished World

[151] Failure is not worthless (4)

Monsters on the ground are even more dangerous in that they cannot cope with sea monsters. Even though there are not many of them, it is not normal to cross the sea.

Why cross the vast waters of the Bay of Bengal and Burma to the Malay Peninsula?

“Do you know why? ”

“That's unclear. It's a rule not to talk to hunter worshippers. ”

“We don't know for sure if their objective is an invasion or a simple migration. ”

“Yes, something like that. ”

It is unclear whether or not the hunter worshippers are still in India. But apparently, they've moved. They stay on the Malay Peninsula and stay closer to the Twilight Bridge than ever before.

The world is definitely changing. But in a world without communication, it was only up to two eyes and ears to see how the world would end up changing.

It is reasonable to assume that the Hunting Worshippers have crossed for an invasion.

If the purpose of the invasion was to do so, why did he choose a more dangerous route, not a road? And why did he remain silent for so long? Even if it is migration, it is the same. Using the harbor was even more risky.

But I thought you said they were hunter worshippers from the boat.

The choice of a long and long voyage may be because it was the only one I could choose.

Maybe it's because something happened and I can't live there anymore.

Did something happen in India? ’

Then they fled to the Malay Peninsula, not the invasion. In fact, the distance between the Twilight Cult and the Hunting Cult became very geographically close. The Twilight Cult was in jeopardy, with traitors on the inside and enemies on the outside as hunters.

All questions could not be resolved at this time. Even though the adult appearance of the faint figure had all sorts of stories, the crisis that faced it would have forced him to do so by half.

The place made a person, and the fancy fit in quite nicely.

Upon arriving on the first floor, the guardians, who are already Oracle's acolytes, are waiting. There was a strange look at Gene coming down with him on an elevator that only Oracle could use, but Gene didn't care about it.

Leona and Ramfil, who were still waiting on the first floor, were surprised that there was an elevator.

“What, if I had something like that... ”

However, Lamfil, who had noticed, blocked Leona's mouth. Oracle must do something difficult from now on. He leaves for the entrance of the Twilight Tower.

“It's Oracle!”

“Oracle is out! ”

When Oracle in fancy clothes suddenly appeared, all the worshippers around the Twilight Tower knelt before him and put their hands together. You can see Oracle on the day of the official service, but for them, Oracle is the reality of the Twilight Brigade and at the same time the most dignified person.

So it was natural for people to kneel down like waves and pay their respects.

Gene stepped back at a distance and approached Leona and Ramfil because he didn't want to get their attention.

“What are you doing? ”

“You're going to have a good look. ”

Gene only said that, but he didn't say anything specifically about what was going to happen. The little Oracle smiles, raising his voice, looking at the surrounding area where silence was so frightening.

“Greetings, brothers and sisters of the church. May the Church and this city of twilight always be full of the grace of twilight. I'm going to do something very important from now on. Brothers and sisters, please step away from this area. ”

It was an odd sight. Despite Oracle's calm words and lack of coercion, people rose as one and moved away from the Dusk Tower. There was no objection or regret in people's faces, as if Oracle's words were any law.

If Oracle says so, Oracle says so.

“Is this a good view? ”

As Leona tilts her head back, Gene smiles awkwardly.

“… No. ”

But it was clear that Ramsay and Leona were imprinted on how much religion dominates the mind. The people retreat at a distance, and all that remains are the High Septon and the few guardians. Oracle has also sent them into the Twilight Tower.

The only people left in this huge vacant lot are the losers.

“This way, please. It's going to be a barrel. ”

As if Jean's party could see this, Oracle gestures at Jean's party, and they stand behind her.

“What are you trying to do? ”

Leona tilts her head and asks, smiling faintly.

“I will summon all the spirits. ”

“All of it?”

“Yes, I will call them all. ”

Then he pulled out a small bottle of crystal from his arms. The beautifully polished bottle had white powder in it, and everyone knew what it was. Powder, the material that made the Twilight Bridge. A little smudge of it on the palm of his hand nods at it and inhales.

White powder was inhaled into the mucous membrane and the faint pattern shifted to see if he felt dizzy for a moment.

“Are you okay? ”

Leona knows it's a powerful drug, so she puts her hands carefully on her shoulders when she sees this kid doing that. Oracle raises his hand and smiles helplessly.

“It's okay. It's not even once or twice. ”

The boy put the crystal bottle back in his arms. Leona thought she was eating it with little effort, but she was shocked to see him inhale through her nose. Young Leona had no idea what mucosal aspiration was.

Whether the powder's effect was imminent, Leona saw a strange flash of light in her eyes and forgot her words.

“Now, back off. ”

“Ugh, yeah... ”

The expression changed strangely, whether it was the effect of Awakening. Leona is a witch and fears that humans will imitate the power of witches.

“Hey, are you sure you're okay? ”

As Leona looks at Gin worried, Gene nods.

“Yes, there's nothing to worry about. ”

It is absurd for Leona to be afraid of such a figure. It has more overwhelming power than anyone else, and after that it can awaken more superpowers than the psychic waves.

You just stood there. But I could feel it as much as Leona.

You can clearly feel the wavelength of a huge psychic wave spreading around the little boy. That's why Leona, who was in contact with the psychic wave, could feel the willingness of the psychic wave that was spreading around the faint pattern.

‘Everyone, come to me. ’

Such a simple message was spreading with a very powerful echo.

“Hey, how far does this spread...? ”

“The entire Twilight City. ”

The magnificent pattern has very strong sympathy even when you don't use Venpowders.

However, if you use the power boosting bender, you will have stronger sympathy. Soon, we will be able to influence and give orders throughout this vast Twilight City.

“That's ridiculous.... ”

Leona could not believe that she could influence this vast city. At this moment, he had to be in direct contact to be able to communicate, and he was uncertain whether it would always work.

Leona thought that even if she could use only Oracle's strength, she would be helpful enough.

I'm still too helpless. Even a boy who looks younger than me thinks he has much more power than me.

Gene lays a hand on Leona's head.

“The White Witch slammed monsters across the South Korean Peninsula during the Seoul Fortress raid. ”

That's what Leona knew. Although the Korean Peninsula is small, it is certainly more broad than this Twilight City. Jean speaks softly, as if she knew what she was thinking.

“And you have the same power. ”

“ ……. ”

It is not yet available, but it is said to have such potential. There's no rush. Gene comforted Leona, as if she didn't have to insist that it didn't help. Oracle may seem powerful now, but in the future, Leona will be able to manipulate monsters with a psychic wave several hundred times stronger than Oracle.

It is not the level of communion by the Twilight Cult, but literally domination.

Leona realizes that Sazam is thinking of his full thoughts. Essentially, I have no reason to envy Oracle. And it's against Oracle to even think about it.

Obviously, they are using unauthorized force for their lives.

Knng... Knng...

From a distance, you hear the sound of something enormous moving.

At the heart of the Twilight Bridge, many spirits were summoned here by Oracle towards the square.

Countless monsters were arriving, including wolves, slimes, monkeys, cyclops, venomous dogs, and swordfish.

“Wow... ”

Leona stares at it dazed as if it were a miracle. The crowd of all the spirits of Twilight City was overwhelming.

After an hour, the Twilight Tower Square was filled with boiling spirits. The sight of many spirits gathering to gaze at Oracle was overwhelming.

Not domination. But you gained the respect and loyalty of the spirits through persuasion and connection. Oracle's efforts were never ordinary.

It was literally a miracle to be seen in plain sight because it was a false religion.

Even at dusk towers, there is no specific reason why Oracle suddenly summoned spirits. No one else knew why Oracle was doing this, except for the group that lost because of their sensitivity.

“Awesome... ”

Leona can't even speak, and Oracle begins to communicate. The process is simple.

Ask the spirits across Twilight City the truth about growing Venflower. Some of these spirits may have been involved in the work, and you may know it. Ordinary synagogues can't do that, but Oracle can.

There's nothing to say, but Oracle's mind is in a mess right now because of the psychic waves.

I don't know. ’

‘I don't know. ’

‘By the way, someone did that the last time... ’

Hungry!

The Great One! Not you, over there! ’

No matter how much useless the words provoked Oracle, Leona could feel what was coming and going in the comfort of that psychic. Gene sees Leona faint, and Ramfil mutters.

“I think I've been a little dazed, especially since I got here. ”

“The Twilight Bridge is a place where the psychic wave travels considerably more than any other area. Maybe Leona's psychosomatic sensitivity is getting stronger. ”

That's why Gene thought the senses of catching the coming and going psychopaths might be developing. However, Gene did not fully understand the world of mental waves because he lacked superpowers.

“Is that good?”

Gene shrugs.

“It's a process of Awakening Power. Maybe you'd like it. ”

If Leona can escape her sense of powerlessness, it would be a good thing to awaken her strength. Gene just didn't want it to grow to a level that Leona couldn't handle.

Although the Twilight Bridge's chips are important, Jean wanted Leona to awaken her strength by confronting the spirits and friendly spirits here. And I was actually looking at the effects.

Leona holds a force beyond her control like a ticking time bomb. It was better to be able to realize and control its powerful power. Leona looks at Gin. You can clearly see that this overwhelming sight makes you excited.

And he seemed pleased that such power was also given to him.

That's why Gene came to the Twilight Bridge for Leona.

To be precise, the Awakening of Leona's power was also important, but there was a more important reason. Jean said confidently to Leona, looking at herself.

“Look.”

“Yes, I'm watching. ”

A sight of harmony. It would be appalling if anyone could see it, but some see it and feel the welfare of the Twilight Bridge as they see Oracle's well-being.

Therefore, this power is relatively close to people.

“Your strength is not bad. ”

Leona opens her eyes and looks at Gin. I never would have done it in the past. It was like denying all of his past, and Gene knew it. But there was no hesitation in telling Leona that.

Leona has been in self-esteem ever since she brought down New Hong Kong. Maybe his existence is inherently problematic. Shouldn't he have been born? Maybe life itself is the problem.

Jean knew every night that she could not sleep and turned around.

I knew I was crying out loud so no one could hear me.

That's what Gene says because he knows it.

“I want you to know that. ”

“ ……. ”

I wanted to show people that your power is not something that can be beneficial to people, that you can produce something, and that you can control whatever you want.

There are more important reasons to visit the Twilight Brigade than Chip, which is nowhere in the world.

Leona's eyes were open. It's as if you're going to cry right now, but Leona doesn't cry either.

I don't cry when I hear that.

Leona answers vigorously.

“Yes!”

Leona,

Maybe it's wrong.

It could be a time bomb.

Maybe he shouldn't be alive.

Gene's words are not the right answer.

It doesn't really matter whether there's a problem or not.

But because you're human, you have to have someone who says you're not.

Someone has to tell you that you're okay, that you're okay.

The old Leona had no one around her. Everyone hated and hated themselves. Leona becomes crooked and cruel, suffering from malice for no reason. Leona, who was not troubled by people's hatred, became troubled.

Gene didn't just mess with them and fix them.

You're okay. You're okay. You're not bad. They are merely consolation. It's just a word that doesn't touch anything directly.

However,

That simple consolation changed Leona. Clearly, Leona has become less cruel, less cruel, and does not spread hostility in any way.

The little beast who had learned to love something, now he knows how to hold something.

Those who learn to embrace something cannot be inherently evil.

And it was the same with Jean, too.

If Leona had learned how to hug something,

Gene forgets to hug something.

That's why Jean wasn't just teaching Leona.
