Boundless Necromancer

430. The butterfly effect (2)

Whoo-.

A cold wind blew across the meadow.

A spire that resembles the second hand of a clock.

For some reason, the steeple that looks like the second hand of a clock lying in the middle of the meadow seems to be completely separated from the real world.

───.

In reality, there was nothing very different about it.

The spire, which looked like an old clock’s second hand, was a kind of temple created by a certain god, apart from its appearance.

Even if the war of the gods is in full swing, no one can easily reach the clock-shaped spire.

[ …Whoop-. ]

But…

[ …noisy. ]

It was strange.

Hard-.

The furnishings inside the spire, which looked like the second hand of a clock, all swayed violently as if they could not stand the wind blowing in the meadow.

[ …Oh, I can’t even take a nap now because of how much they behave like unbridled colts. ]

A gray-haired old man who saw it frowned and let out an annoyed yawn.

[Where the hell are you making this noise? ]

creak-squeak-.

A gray-haired old man got down from his worn-out rocking chair and approached the window.

By this point, he, too, was no longer in a position to take a nap in peace.

Originally, there should be no influence at all where this spire looks like the second hand of a clock.

Nevertheless, the fact that the shaking is transmitted so violently even to the inside of the spire of the second hand of the clock is something that makes you feel a sense of alienation.

Chaah-.

As it was, the gray-haired old man approached the window of the spire with the second hand of the clock, opened the curtains, and stared into the distance.

Coo-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu…

A green meteor shower was staining the ground.

Divine supernatural powers and demonic energy that could be said to have reached an astounding level were pouring down, mixed in a green meteor shower that looked like black magic.

Well, to the gray-haired old man, those green meteor showers didn’t seem to do much damage to the steeple that looked like a clock’s second hand, but he clearly felt a sense of incongruity.

[Hmm…. How can it be so strange… It’s the power to go against the providence…

]

[I can’t easily guess the unique concept engraved in the divinity itself, and I can’t even guess who the hell is using that black magic…] Before I knew it, the white-haired old man was madly in a faraway place

. Looking at the baptism of falling green meteors, he said as if he was interested.

[Even at first glance, that wonderful black magic cannot be performed unless the demons and their henchmen are exceptional… ]

The green meteor shower seen outside the window stands at the apex of all demons. It is a power that can be demonstrated by demons who have demons or those like the 72 devils who are chosen by such demons.

[However, it doesn’t seem like a demon or an exceptional henchman accompanied by a demon has come, and the divine supernatural power itself is so ominous that it contains a high-ranking concept that cannot be fathomed. ]

However, to the white-haired old man, the green meteor shower, presumably due to black magic, did not seem to have been used by a demon or one of the 72 demons.

[If the supernatural ability of divinity itself is enough, even the level of divinity is truly bizarre, considering that a considerable number of high-ranking deities have unique concepts that are so threatening that they can be treated lightly. ]

Not to mention, the supernormal ability of the divine being mixed in the green meteor shower that seems to be black magic is also a rare high-level concept, not at a level that can be seen from common high-ranking deities.

[ Huh…. ]

And.

[I’m not surprised. ]

That means one thing.

[An ancient deity…. How much more does that mean that there is an existence Bonno has never seen? It really doesn’t make sense to me at all. ]

In fact, the existence that built the green meteor shower using black magic in a faraway place is one of the ancient deities, although the identity is unknown.

[I don’t know if there would have been anything like this in the future possibilities Bonno saw, but something seems to have gone wrong. ]

It was a very serious thing.

[Somehow, since the past few days, the divinity and soul have suddenly been shaken, and even if you use the divine supernormal ability or divine power, the future foresight doesn’t work very well. It’s an extremely ominous sign. ]

And.

[Well, I don’t think so…]

Accordingly, the white-haired old man slowly moved his steps, and then looked out the window and spit out words.

[ ─The timeline might have been twisted. ]

The gray-haired old man prepared to leave the steeple that looked like a clock second hand, and took a dusty crystal staff and purple robe.

[Perhaps even those of the Order camp who only do annoying propaganda will be able to find Bonno faster than we saw in the last foreknowledge. ]

Jerk-jerk-.

[In that case, Bonno should also prepare in his own way. ]

The gray-haired old man walked slowly, brushing the dust off his crystal staff and purple robe.

「The god of time laughs bitterly at the thought of facing the oldest beings.

」 ]

god of time.

Excluding the God of Darkness, the Demon God, and the Dragon God, who are treated as out of the question among the ancient deities in this universe, it is said that he lived the longest.

It was the moment when he decided to intervene faster than the original plan in the war of the gods instead of continuing his seclusion in the temple of the steeple that looked like a clock’s second hand.

***

Commonly, everyone living in this world has at least one plausible plan.

Kwakjijijijijijijijijik-!

Is that why?

Those who did not doubt that the plausible plan they had would work under any circumstances were full of confidence.

Even more so, if it is not at the level of a formal deity or a pseudo-deity, but a being who has achieved the hierarchy of a higher deity, isn’t it natural to show great confidence?

‘Well, on a planet, even formal deities and pseudo-deities that are not high-ranking deities are universally evaluated as top-notch powers, so it’s unavoidable that a lot of strength is put on their shoulders.’

In this universe, other than the ancient gods, there are no worthy opponents for the higher gods, so it must be that they blindly believe in a more plausible plan.

‘Cancer is at a level that I can understand.’

But…

‘If higher-ranking deities or official deities put a lot of strength on their shoulders anyway, wouldn’t it be enough if I kindly help them relax?’

That is until it gets hit properly.

Eujijijijijijijijikjik-!

…At some point, I was madly beating a lion-headed high-ranking deity in a wasteland that was like the end of the Western Front.

「The god of non-consensus reveals excessive fear to you!

」 ]

In the blink of an eye, I was building a deep camaraderie (?) with the God of Misunderstanding, a high-ranking deity, with a smile on my face with only pure physical strength.

‘This is good.’

It was cool.

‘Well, rather than wasting time on unnecessary conversations or persuasion, such a cool way to socialize is more efficient.’

Originally, this side’s power was basically hidden so that it wouldn’t spread anywhere, so I’ve been ignored a lot lately.

Dududuk-.

And I don’t know if that’s why, but it didn’t feel bad in itself to subdue one of the upper deities, the god of disagreement, based on pure physical force.

[Keugguggug!! please stop that!! I dared to offend a noble person…!! please forgive me… ]

Well, from the perspective of the other side, this side doesn’t seem to like the ‘Moorim-style way of socializing’ that this side learned at the Moorim level…

“What can I do?”

To be honest, I don’t know.

Kkwajieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-!

Just like that, with my right hand tightly clenched, I hit the lion-like head of the god of mystery so that the sound of skull bones being crushed could be heard.

[Keep it off…!! Please save me…! I was wrong! It was a mistake!! I will do my best not to commit such disrespect to a noble person again…!! ]

“If you’re only at the level of a high-ranking deity, you can make a few small mistakes like this. by the way You just have to make sure you don’t do that next time.”

There was no remorse at all.

Didn’t this lion-headed God of Conspiracy in front of me also have an intention to kill him immediately, depending on what he did?

At most, I thought that it should be called a miracle that this side stopped at the line of giving a lesson so lightly to the god of non-consent.

Kwadeudeuk-.

In an instant, my right arm was crushed by the lion-headed God of Mystery, and I sighed as I stared at him who collapsed under the wasteland.

“stand up.”

[ …. ]

“Don’t be rude. You can regenerate as many arms as you can, right? If you wait any longer, I will really kill you next time…”

[Hee hee! has risen! Lord of the great universe above! So don’t kill me!! ]

Is it thanks to the deep camaraderie (?) built up in such a short time?

In the blink of an eye, the God of Complaint quickly stood up while holding onto his right arm, where every bone was pulverized.

And accordingly, I stared blankly at the lion-headed god of misunderstanding, then spat out words.

“The Western Front. There, it seems that the survivors of the top deities belonging to the orderly faction are gathered over there… Guide them.”

[ Ha ha ha ha! That’s right! It is an honor to be able to guide my comrades to the great Lord of the universe above…!! ]

“Really? Then let’s go somewhere. It’s just that if you mess around in there one more time in any way, your head will be crushed next time.”

[ …. ]

“Let’s go.”

Somehow, the god of misunderstanding made his face look white as if he had tasted extreme fear, but apart from that, he had no intention of delaying time, so he immediately moved on.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-.

No time was wasted.

I just followed the path of the god of misunderstanding and moved slowly, but did that alone qualify me to enter some kind of hidden place?

As it was, as soon as this side moved a few steps along the god of misunderstanding, it was felt that the thin film of divinity had passed, and a forest full of dark shadows appeared.

「…」

「Entrance conditions satisfied.」

「You have entered the divine realm < Forest of Shadows >」

「Due to the ‘Shadow Shield’, the exclusive effect of the divine realm < Forest of Shadows >, all living things within the divine realm are divine. And Mana goes into stealth.」

And…

“That’s absurd.”

Realized.

“I never thought he would have created a sacred realm at the end of the western front and hid there…” It

seemed like he understood why the defeated soldiers belonging to the orderly camp who had retreated from the western front could not be found so easily.

“So was it?”

In fact, since it is hidden in the sacred realm specialized in stealth created by a higher deity, it is inevitable that it will be difficult to complete the search even with the ingenuity of this side.

“It really varies.”

I said so with a cold sneer as if I was pathetic.

He must have never put up any real resistance on the Western Front, so there’s no way to be positive about hiding so peacefully here.

It is all the more so when you consider that the god of nonconsensuality even said nonsense about unconditional obedience to the words of a strong man, as if he was going to play a ranking game as soon as he saw him.

Jerk-jerk-.

From this side’s point of view, it didn’t seem like the high-ranking deities beyond the divine realm < Forest of Shadows > were normal.

‘Is it over there?’

And…

“The god of the ancestors is enraged as he thinks of a demon king.”

[This…! Garbage…!! Dare to dare! To make me suffer such humiliation and humiliation as the devil who was only chosen by the demon god…!! I will kill you right now!! ]

「The God of Gulgong laughs at the pitiful comrade.」

[Huh. What the hell are you talking about? You, the like, would not have been able to even reach the feet of the chosen demon king. funny. If you want to fight that much, you can go alone. ]

「The god of the current moon mumbles with deep annoyance at the people standing in front of her.」

[Shut up. I don’t intend to fight anything like that again. As long as demons start to intervene in the war of gods, there is no chance of winning. I’m going to use the upper deity and the official deity that belatedly retreated from the western front as bait to get out. ]

Actually, there was no difference.

[ …tsk. There must be quite a few high-ranking and official deities left on the Western Front. I’m going to throw those slow bursting garbage as bait and escape this place and go into hiding. It’s something that doesn’t fit the bill. ]

[ Heh. I had to tear and kill that trashy demon king. Still, I have no idea what to do. ok do as you say ]

[ Reasonable. If even that demon started to intervene in the war of the gods, the balance of power would have already collapsed. Jobs that don’t fit the bill are my specifications too. ]

Everyone is showing anger, annoyance, and fear as if the reason to work as a member of the order camp in the war of the gods has disappeared.

“…”

I was pathetic.

‘Is that the right thing to say after being defeated by a demon king who was endowed with not so great power by a demon god on the western front right now?’

However, I was not too disappointed with the defeated soldiers who had fled from the Western Front.

‘It’s fortunate that I didn’t expect anything from the high-level deities on the Western Front from the beginning.’

It was worth it.

It’s because I never expected anything in the first place.

At most, there’s no way you can wish for anything from the defeated soldiers who ran away and hid here, confused by a demon king who appeared on the western front.

「God of Gulgong smiles as if he has a good idea.」

[Ah-. Even if it’s not, the god of disagreement says there’s a worm out there claiming to be a deity belonging to the orderly faction? Why don’t you throw him as bait on the western front as well? ]

But now, it’s just that I can’t have any hope for the defeated soldiers who belonged to the order camp that fled from the western front.

Chak-.

「The god of the current moon is looking at you with an interesting look.」

[ Ho-oh. I could never have imagined that the God of Compromise would bring bait to use for escape in such a timely manner. I mean, you’re really lucky. Good luck.]

Before I knew it, I looked at the three high-level deities standing in the middle of the forest of shadows, smiled and licked my lips.

“…lucky?”

and.

“…Yes, as you say, if you are lucky in your own way, you must be lucky.”

That means one thing.

“For me.”

…was the jackpot.
