Chapter 81 – Racial War (4)The Calamities people knew about were four in total.
One at the Roots.
One at the Branch.
Hansoo mumbled inwardly.
Since these guys seemed busy eating up the World Tree and didn’t really seem interested in people.
A creature that seemed like it was being sealed by somebody.
The six powers that were controlling the wide World Tree Mountain Range heard the news and then quickly gathered to the location of the Seal.
That this thing was more dangerous than the calamities if it were to get released.
But this guy looked like a incomplete creature unlike the completed lifeforms such as the Calamities.
And it was weaker than the Calamities because of that but unlike the Calamities who weren’t really interested in people, this thing was showing extreme reactions against living creatures.
No, they would get swept over too.
Their family might come after them.
But then they had no methods of killing it.
So they only had one option.
They first put their powers around Six Trunks near the location of the Seal in order to block random people from getting to the Seal.
At the same time they decided to keep it a secret from them as well.
And one of the six people who had gathered had remained behind in order to keep the Seal.
Naming the creature had befallen to the one who had chosen to sacrifice himself for everyone else and the man who had chosen to remain behind, Miyamoto, named the creature Akuma.
These were the Seven Departed Souls.
‘I don’t know why that guy had failed in creating this thing but… Kill the Akuma first then take these guys to kill the Ouroboros.’
But Sofía’s expression didn’t change while looking at that Hansoo.
Four Calamities.
And his confidence would probably be brimming since he had killed two of them.
Not as strong as a natural disaster but the fact that humans can’t go up against it was the same and it actually went against humans unlike natural disasters.
She could not ignore a person who had killed two of the Four Great Calamities and also knew the name of Akuma.
Sofía set the intention of communicating into her mind and then took out the next question.
Sofía threw something into the air as soon as she finished talking.
The round object which had risen to the air suddenly opened its eyes.
Then it started to show the scenery of the Six Trunks above clearly in front of Sofía.
Michael was shocked as he saw this.
A skill which allowed one to see whenever they wanted in the World Tree continent as long as they fulfilled the requirements.
They had collected and raised the mastery of skills and artifacts for almost 10 years.
And battle experience that exceeded others by a few times.
But Camille groaned from a different reason than Michael’s.
Sofía’s skill was showing them the situation above clearly.
But on the other hand, the Pillars that were located far away from the Ouroboros’ tail didn’t really care for as to whether the clans in the front were fighting or not as they took everything they needed and were taking their clan upwards.
The Pillars that were fighting were only doing so because they had gotten close, they still made sure to maintain their power as they fell backwards.
Michael clicked his tongue as he saw this.
Two days.
Everyone probably realized this.
Though it won’t be as good as the Library Sofía had, there were plenty of traits that were similar.
If the Ouroboros didn’t come down then there might be some clans who decide to fight.
With as much of their power maintained as possible.
If they couldn’t even block the parasites charging over there then they couldn’t even progress after that.
Hansoo pondered for a moment at those words and then got up.
“Goddamnit! The other clans aren’t coming? What about Hecarim!”
Two of the Six Pillars, Helper Clan and the Triple Lights Union, were blocking the tide-like parasites as they screamed out.
A green-colored skill of one of the Celestial Generals from the Triple Lights Union exploded towards the parasites crawling down from above.
To send attacks towards the Ouroboros above!
But the Celestial General didn’t even put that into his calculations.
Booom!
Since the Ouroboros was too lazy to move just because its scales were a bit scratched.
‘These damned things. They’re too big.’
And killing few tens of them didn’t even dent their numbers.
‘Bitch…Hecarim, Pillars you despicable bastards! For not a single one of you to show up!”
That there was no reason for them to shed blood and come help.
The reason why the Triple Lights Union and the Helper Clan were fighting was not because they had a hidden mission or anything.
What has been left now were not ideals but rather reality.
Since their main base would get wrecked if they didn’t block them.
‘We shall also guard for a bit and then maintain our formations as we get out.’
It was impossible for the adventurers below to raise their strength to the point where they can get through the Mirror in 2 days anyways.
While they were grinding their teeth, a huge soundwave was heard in the distance.
Though this wasn’t the time for him to get distracted, the Celestial General had been in the Otherworld too long to ignore an extremely strong existence that pervaded all their detection skills.
And something like this meant that they had increased the mastery to the extremes.
‘Sofía Vargera….’
Their relationship wasn’t good but wasn’t that bad.
Even from the start it would be a piece of cake for someone like her to just go through the Mirror when something like this happened.
At that time something bulky started to form in Sofía’s hands.
Then the jade-colored marble made a huge noise as it flew over the sky.
The marble which had flown over the sky while drawing out a jade line on its path landed between the swarming parasites.
Soon the surface started to freeze up along with the explosion.
In an instant an area many times larger than the Celestial General’s attack froze up and all the parasites within that area turned into frozen statues.
The Celestial General saw that scene as his eyes fluttered.
Since they had heard that people like them played around up above.
The Ouroboros that didn’t even react to the previous attack trembled.
‘It didn’t even seem like she went all out.’
‘Who’s that next to her.’
Everyone’s gazes including the Celestial General’s turned to Sofía and Hansoo next to her.
Hansoo then got lost in thought as he pondered while looking at the countless amounts of parasites crawling down from the giant tail of the Ouroboros in front of him.
‘Is this decision the right one?’
No, he can actually make them fight more desperately.
The damage from the parasites would not increase.
‘Isn’t there a method of killing the Ouroboros without doing all of this?’
But if he were to fail at killing the Ouroboros after all this then he will be throwing all of the people from the Six Pillars, who could’ve escaped, into death.
‘There’s no other way.’
It was arduous enough for him to focus on the Akuma and Ouroboros themselves.
Kiiiiiiing
Soon the light from the Galadriang’s Relic turned into a huge golden hammer instead of a sword.
Hansoo then jumped down as he smashed the hammer down onto the center of the tail of the Ouroboros.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaang!
At the thunder-like sound Jukma, who was commanding his Clansmen, quickly looked towards the location where the sound and the light came from.
‘What is happening now!’
The tail of the Ouroboros which didn’t even react until now started to react quite agitatedly.
Boom! Booooom!
The tail kept on poking in between the Pillars as if it was trying to find the one annoying it numerous times.
The problem was that the spot the tail landed was the center of the lake, the Mirror.
Jukma looked at this scene with disbelief.
Why did it stop in such a place.
Soon the parasites that had come down on the tail filled up the lake as they crawled out in all directions.
Though the depth of the lake was rather deep, it was just a normal lake other than the single day in which it acted as the Mirror.
The lake was extremely wide but there were enough parasites to fill it up many times over.
Now it would be impossible for them to get into the mirror without getting through that with all their strength.
And now all the people on the surface of the Red Zone would get massacred.
At that time a Carrier Pigeon flew in.
Jukma, who had heard the message within the Carrier Pigeon, grinded his teeth as he got up.
“Let’s go.”
Jukma ordered Amil Stadan and started to gather up a few people.
