The Spearmaster and the Black Cat
Eight Stories Tabernacle Achilles Edition
◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
Mahaheim Mountains across the Mahaheim continent.
The rugged mountains of this Mahaheim Mountains are untouched lands.
It's in a species here.
Those who dwelt therein called themselves the Gordiba.
◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
Today is a prayer day once a month.
Go deep underground and say "La Kerada" directly to the Divine Beast!
Thank you, too, Sasha.
Yes, it's a day to thank you.
This is also a custom inherited from our ancestors by our Gordiba tribe.
Tighten your feelings and put your sleeves through thin leather clothes with long sleeves.
Fit the brass chest button.
Turn the leather belt on the hips and put four small swords on the thighs.
He also wore tiger leather clothes on his jacket and corrected the blue collar.
Embroidered black beast with silver thread on the left and right sides of the chest of this tiger leather garment.
Hold the black spear at the end.
Put the black headscarf that came with the tiger leather clothes on your head and it's done.
Priestly clothes.
I opened the door and went outside.
"Ah, Achilles' grandpa. Shisai clothes, hunting clothes ~"
"Mm-hmm. No pranks. Don't go inside the chapel."
"Yeah, he said he knew. Be safe and come back."
"I'll be back tomorrow morning"
I'm worried that my grandson Refa will not come into the chapel.
I hope you keep my word honestly.
Head to the chapel in the cobblestone square.
The entrance to the chapel is a heavy stone door.
There is a small stone statue carved with a black beast (Roses-like) mark in front of the left.
The sharp eyes of the stone statue stared at me.
My eyes twist the sharp stone statue to the left.
As usual, the heavy stone doors of the chapel were opened.
There is no table in the chapel that would serve God.
It's just a circular space with a rectangular pedestal at the center.
There is a hole in the pedestal where the medal is likely to fit.
I took the medal from the necklace on my chest and pushed it into the hole in the pedestal.
The pedestal with the medal embedded automatically moves.
Whenever I look at it, I don't know this karaki.
Your ancestors were left with strange things.
A stone outcrop appears from the pedestal all the time.
The stone door behind him closed automatically.
Grabbing the outing with both hands, the cabin shook up and moved.
There is a strange white smoke that makes you feel God's breath all the time from the stone trenches that surround you.
It's like the floor sinks at once.
... I don't feel used to this feeling.
The movement inside this stone cylinder makes me feel more anxious.
I'm getting old, too, but I don't get used to unfamiliar things.
This strange stone cylinder......
For a long time, we called it the Divine Gear Table.
For generations of ancestors, only the armed priests inside can use it.
The stone cylinder goes deep underground.
After a steep descent, it stopped.
The door of the stone cylinder opens automatically.
The pedestal at the center of the floor moves automatically again, and the handle of the outgoing stone is stored.
The last medal embedded first appears on the pedestal.
After returning the medal to the chest necklace, he automatically dived out the open door.
Looking out over the high plateau of the temple in the underground world.
As usual...... the damp air was full.
I will check under the stairs as I breathe more and more air.
Downstairs stands the black statue of our god beast, Roses.
You look great today.
This underground space is a temple that celebrates the statue of Lord Roses.
You have to serve the ingredients and continue the prayer of La Kerada to clean them.
But this is also where the underground world takes you.
One day the Apostle could appear.
We must be vigilant.
So we move our gaze to the ceiling.
The large pot hanging from the ceiling is bright.
You're on fire as usual.
The flames in this pan are always strange to see......
There's a stone burning in the pot, but it only works here in space.
When I carried the stone up, the flames went out.
Now, may I pray for the statue of Master Roses...
I make my gaze round the temple. The water around you is beautiful. I go down the stairs with a view.
"- Hmm?
I detected the bouncing sound of water and magic vegetables.
"Become"
I bow down to piety.
People?
Plus, a tall young man. Dark hair, black eyes.
The gear wraps around the waist with the armpit and the razor skin?
Strange outfit.
I did not think, but stared at his people, who approached the statue of Lady Roses.
Do you want to take a closer look?
No, once again, react to mastery.
Another magic vegetable - isn't that an apostle!
A messenger appeared behind the youth.
Finally springing up here too!
I've been calling lately...
... I don't really want to fight in this place where the temple is, but I don't have a choice.
Our enemies, our messengers.
Besides, that's a feathered apostle...... the hunter type?
That apostle seems to hunt a tribe of young people.
You want to help?
I thought so, but I couldn't.
Looks like we got a fight in a flash.
The youth tribe is poked multiple times, such as in the back and belly, hitting the statue from the head.
- Is that dead?
It's also amazing how people live here......
The problem is this apostolic hunter. I can't forgive you!
I didn't know you would defile the temple of the Divine Beast Roses.
"He punishes me..."
I groan with anger.
Keep your posture low.
Go down the stairs in a forward bending position.
I float four little swords on my hips with magic tricks with force in my hand holding the black spear.
Down the stairs......
Huh - I notice the air on the field has changed.
Did the hunter do something?
I ran quickly - headed to the spot.
Incredible sights awaited......
A bloody young man was wrapped in a sea of blood chains.
At that moment, the blood chains surrounding him follow him to the apostle as the serpent hungry.
The youth of the people were overwhelming the Apostle.
No, this guy, he's not human?
Blood chains? Instead of a serpent, I've never seen...
Blood is a strange chain of movement and complexity...
- Nah!?
The messenger was humiliated with blood chains.
When the young man grabs the head of the apostle, jumping to the immobile apostle, he opens his mouth with a grin of joy.
When he deformed his dog teeth into long teeth that seemed sharp, he was biting to implant his face in the Apostolic Neck.
The blood-sucked messenger instantly dried up and became only a bone.
Armor falls to the ground.
And the youth's magic vegetables swelled rapidly.
The young man whines about something as if he had regained his mind, but soon fell.
I think I've lost consciousness.
Is that a vampire called the Demon Clan?
... Demons, enemies. Kill now.
I saw not only the apostle, but also the enemy of a long time, the ancient senses about to come to life.
At that time...
The flames on which the statue of Master Roses was wrapped disappear.
What do you mean?
Blackflame sucked into the mural that was under the statue.
Staring at that mural......
Oh, my God, isn't the painting of the Black Beast (Dear Roses) clearly reflected in the mural?
And the statue of the important black beast (Lady Roses) lost its light and collapsed.
Awawawawawawa, wow, my, our, Dear God Beast Roses...
- Been!?
Now Lady Roses, the god beast, appeared clearly translucent.
Walk under a fallen young man.
No way, are you coming back to life?
"Shinju, well."
God and the Beast are not worthy of my word.
Pity, but I lost my hips.
The transparent god beast gives in and mouths to the young man's head.
Then,
"Wow, wow, wow."
I was shouted with my mouth up.
Master Roses disappears as he is......
Oh, Master Roses!? He disappeared again?
For the time being, I couldn't think of anything, and there were natural tears flowing from my eyes.
With tears telling her cheeks and stunned, she looks at the fallen young man.
The grief of the Goldiba tribe. Even if that's brittle......
What it means to be a priest left behind by my father and ancestors......
I... for what...
- What is it?
Strange things happen from next to next.
As many young men, no, the flesh of vampires gathers together in one...
At the same time, the youth's magic, magic, is rapidly lost.
The flesh of the meat makes an incredible move with the gnocchi to shape something.
Ultimately...... black cat? was born.
The little black cat is on top of the young man's body.
What if that cat is a god beast?
I also have tentacles.
Is this, after all, the rebirth of the Divine Beast?
"A miracle... that legend was true..."
Master Roses was alive.
This is the heavenly grace of the Goldiba tribe.
To the legend passed down in this medal...
It made sense that we had defended this temple.
Roses in a black cat is lovingly licking the young man's face.
From time to time, he looked worried about his crushed eyes towards the face of the youth.
Keep it up, don't you keep licking young people's faces and arms healthy?
Youth never wake up.
Looks like she's asleep.
This young man did something with the god beast.
I saw it clear.
It's the flesh of a young man, and Roses is regenerating it anew. This young man is a vampire... but it makes no difference that God Beast was born in his flesh.
If we do not examine this young man more closely… I have decided to carry this young man to the house above.
