Soul Eater of the Rebellion

Chapter 122: The Ghost Realm

A dragon sealed by the Golden Empire (Imperium). The Pope said that 700 years had passed before the seal was lifted.

The fantasy species that occurred in large quantities 300 years ago probably emerged in response to the reactivation of the dragon.

In other words, the dragon and the Golden Empire (Imperium) fought a thousand years ago, and by losing the battle, the dragon's anger against humans was passed on to future generations without quenching, leading to the battle of 300 years ago, and then to the present day.

Thinking so far, it was possible to understand the meaning of the purification world listed by the Kwangjin Shrine.

Whether or not he read our heart, the Pope quietly spoke.

"People must accept the judgment of the dragon once and for all. It is nothing but an atonement as a seed. To wash the world and purify the sin is the true prayer of the purified world. Overcoming this, people are free from the threat of fantasy.”

As long as the dragon is present, even if he wins, the threat will be passed on to future generations. A curse that lasted a thousand years since the time of the Golden Empire (Imperium), no wonder for the next thousand years.

That's why we have to accept the dragon's judgment - the destruction of the fantasy species. Yes, the Pope preaches. That is the purification of the world, and as long as the purification of the world is not accomplished, man shall continue to be attacked by the seeds of illusion.

When I heard that, I nodded, "I see."

I was not inspired by the teachings of Light God. Revealed Divine Light doctrine, action, purpose. We have only confirmed that they are consistent with the information we have heard so far.

- Frankly, there were as many clings to the story as there were now.

For example, if I accept the judgment, will the dragon's rage really subside?

After all, a dragon is a being who beats the wrath of the Golden Empire (Imperium) against us who live now because we are just family.

It is sufficient to think that its purpose is not to "punish human beings" but to "destroy human beings". If you imitate such a long way that you can be judged for your sins, you may be killed.

It's too late to lament that we should have fought for something like this on the brink of annihilation.

However, I did not intend to argue that point with the Pope. It is only a theory of watering and, to put it more simply, it was of no interest at all.

A delicious bait like a fantasy seed -- well, there's no way you can leave people behind!

Beyond that, I'm not interested in whether or not the dragon's rage will really subside.

It's something else I'm interested in. For example, why is it that the Light God Sect, which lists the Purgatory, has sealed the snake of the Dragon--demon race?

Sophia Azurite aspires to a purified world, and is in a position where she must unleash the snake. That's exactly the opposite.

There are many mysteries about the connection between the Mitsugami Shrine and the Imperial Household. The Fantasy Katana was a sword skill that could defeat the Fantasy Seed. It is said that it was connected behind the back for many years, even though it was supposed to be nothing but an intrusion on the part of the Mitsugami Church and the Pope.

It was clear that the source of those contradictions was three hundred years ago.

Perhaps something happened between Sophia Azurite, who joined the phantom burial, Mitsuhito, and the godless atri. Something is creating an opaque state three hundred years later.

I opened my mouth to make sure of that.

"According to what I heard in the West Metropolis, it was Sophia Azurite who sealed the dragon three hundred years ago." It seems to contradict what we're talking about, but how about that? ”

In response to this query, the Pope responded lightly.

“The answer is simple. I didn't actually seal the dragon. That's all there is to it.”

"... so who actually sealed the dragon?"

"It's an atrium. It's an atrium in Godless Land." He was the best swordsman of the demon race, and he was my best friend. "

Then the Pope stared me in the eye.

His eyes were very calm, but for some reason my chest was making a terrible noise.

The water is deeper in rivers of quiet flow than in rivers of intense flow. Behind the seemingly gentle expression, a huge amount of emotions are conveyed.

And here the pope gladly pointed in the west direction.

"I am the one who has built a barrier based on the main hall and is preventing the dragon from emitting aura." In that sense, it would not be a mistake to seal the dragon. However, the atrium barrier is not comparable to this kind of nursery play. On that day, the creation of a different world beyond the barrier was what Attorney did. "

"Different worlds?"

"Yes, it's a different world." Have you ever wondered? What was the demon world? The land beyond the demon gate was completely different from the continent. A lifeless world where the sun rises like a flame and the barren wilderness lasts forever. And there is a world where dragon holes once existed on Qinglin Island. There is no way that such a thing can survive naturally. ”

If you say that, insight will be inspired in the mediocre mind.

I raised my eyebrows slightly and turned my words to the Pope.

Well then, what is the Demon Realm?

"We call the spatial barrier built by the atrium to seal the dragon in the realm the demon world." Look at the dragon's forehead. "

That's what the Pope's thin fingers indicated. I turned my gaze to the giant dragon's face.

The Pope had a horn on his forehead - no, at first I thought it was a horn, but if you look closely, it wasn't a horn, it was something else.

It's a giant sword. The sword pierced deeply into the dragon's forehead, and it looked like a horn from a distance.

It was not necessary to check again who did it.
