chapter 215
215 – Side Story – Lumia Ovse (2)
Time passed like that, about a year later.
“Everyone…! A new friend arrived today.”
In order to consume her ‘world essence’ and regain her own essence, ‘Lumia Osse’ decided to abandon her appearance as a high-dimensional being and become a human girl.
She appeared again in the world at an orphanage located on the outskirts of an artificial island called the last ark of humanity.
‘Obviously… It’s here.’
She wandered around in search of the essence of the world that she could faintly sense, or more specifically, the energy radiating from the main character of the world, and eventually arrived at her destination.
“As you all know, you can’t ostracize or criticize someone just because they’re new! We’ll all smile and applaud…”
‘Among these lower life forms… There is the protagonist of the world who will restore my essence…’
‘Lumia’, who had completely grasped the behavior that a young girl of that age should take, slowly began to observe the children surrounding her while making an innocent expression with her bright eyes.
‘Where is it? If it was this strong, I would know it as soon as I saw it…’
– Rustling…
“…Hmm?”
Her gaze soon meets someone who peeks his head out from the children, accompanied by a rustling sound.
“…Ha.”
And the next moment.
“Ahahahaha… hahahaha…”
Suddenly, Lumia’s eyes flashed and she began to smile creepyly.
“……..?”
But the person who sticks out his head just looks at him with a puzzled expression.
“Ahahahaha, ahahahaha…”
“…Why are you doing this?”
“….Hmm.”
Meanwhile, when the teacher who was holding Lumia’s hand and introducing her to the children at her orphanage asked her a question with a puzzled expression, Lumia barely stopped laughing.
“Ha…”
She gently wiped away the tears in her eyes with her hands, but then she walked forward with her eyes narrowed.
“……?”
The boy with black hair and light blue eyes looked terrified at her sudden approach and took a step back.
“Ugh.”
But that was only for a moment, and the boy quickly caught up with Lumia’s strides and let out a shallow moan without realizing it.
“Hmm…”
Lumia, who was smiling again when she saw that scene, soon muttered in her small voice.
“As expected…”
The constant boredom she felt for eons. As a result, a dizzying and sweet energy rushes in that instantly dispels her accumulated helpless feelings.
That makes Lumia’s heart beat, as she has been turning around all over the place like a wandering bee chasing her sweet scent for the past year.
At this moment, she was completely imbued with human emotions that she usually felt were base.
To her, the essence of the world, filled with her healthy energy, is no different from her nutritious food, savored through her explicit gaze.
“…I found it.”
Then, she finally couldn’t bear it anymore and muttered quietly in a gloomy voice.
‘It looks more delicious than I expected…’
“Hey, over there…”
‘If I succeed in eating that… I’ll probably be able to take over the godhood of this dimension…’
She succeeded in muttering the next words in her mind by using her superhuman patience, and then opened her mouth again, looking at the boy with wary eyes.
‘If I swallow this dimension and regain my power… Then it’s all a breeze…’
I was unable to completely hide the dark energy of being a prey.
‘I will devour all these shining dimensions…!’
Nevertheless, he made an expression that could fool an innocent child.
“…Hello?”
That was the first meeting between Kang Ha-neul and Lumia.
“Uh… Yes.”
“I’ll be nice to you from now on…?”
At the same time, it was the beginning of all hell.
.
.
.
.
.
“…Okay.”
The eyes of Lumia, who was dying on the top floor of the Great Prison Karma, return to focus once again.
“It was like that…”
She had no longer lost her reason, and she was no longer a fool who had been manipulated by the person she thought she was controlling.
“Things… Turned out nicely…”
It would not have been possible with an ordinary human body, but since the two monsters were fused together and the body was already decaying, the consciousness of the being that could be said to be Lumia’s original was able to reveal itself again.
“…After becoming human, have I also become foolish?”
But still, there was nothing that could be done right away.
“I never thought I would ruin my work… So ridiculously…”
At the moment before her death, she managed to regain her memories, but the situation she is in now is literally checkmate.
I don’t even have the strength left to crawl, let alone stand up, and my body is rapidly collapsing thanks to the advent of a consciousness that cannot be embraced by humans.
If she had taken the river Haneul, the story would have been quite different, but now she is just a defeated human girl.
No matter how high-dimensional beings viewed humans as ‘something like’, there was nothing they could do.
“…Damn.”
Because she knew this better than anyone else, a vulgar curse inevitably came out of Rumia’s mouth.
“Just… In a place like this…?”
If there was even a single living thing around her, she wouldn’t have despaired so much.
If only ‘Ise-ah’, who had dared to let her, who had been a human for a while, into her hands and toy with her had been alive.
No, she could have offered a contract if there had been at least one ant baby crawling on the floor.
In that case, she could have saved her life by borrowing that body…
– Kwazijic…
Lumia, who was trembling with her hands, which were not able to use her strength, suddenly opened her eyes wide when she heard a sound coming from the ceiling.
“What…”
– Kwazik… Kwazizik…
“…….!”
The building, which had already been subjected to accumulated shock, finally began to collapse.
Starting with the top floor, where the most intense fighting took place.
“Ugh…”
Lumia, who noticed this, gritted her teeth and tried to move her body, but of course her legs were immovable.
“Why… Why… This… Humiliation…”
I was able to move my arms and hands a little, moving forward as fast as an ant, but that was all.
High-dimensional beings who once ignored even the laws of the universe were now crawling more shabbily than anyone else in an unfamiliar world.
– Crackling…!
“…….!!!”
And now it seemed like that was over.
This was because she was ultimately unable to withstand the accumulated damage and the fragments of her collapsed ceiling rushed towards her helplessly.
“Big…!”
Of course, Lumia, who had no time to avoid it, was buried in the rebar and concrete pieces for just a moment.
“Ugh…..”
Lumia’s gaze begins to blur as her weight, which quickly exceeds several tons, begins to press down on her.
“River… Sky…”
Just like that, the last remaining culprit was about to meet a miserable and shabby death.
“The… Essence of life…”
– Degurrr…
“……Ha?”
Something rolled around helplessly in front of her as she faded away.
“This….. Thing…..”
Rumia’s eyes, which had been immersed in defeat as she gritted her teeth, suddenly began to become clearer.
“…….My eyeball.”
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the smallest but most important part of the great body that once wandered outside the dimension was the one that rolled in front of her.
“Other… Parts…?”
After confirming that, Lumia raised her head with all her might, but her expression soon hardened.
“……..sh*t.”
The four body parts of a ‘great being’ that Narae, who almost became a great being instead of Lumia, escaped due to Kang Ha-neul’s stoppage.
It was rolling around on the floor of the top floor in the aftermath of the ceiling collapsing.
“If only it were a little closer…”
If the location had been slightly different, the scattered heart, brain, or even torso could have been activated together.
“Ugh…”
But right now, the only part of her body that can be touched by her hand, which is lying in a pile of ruins, is none other than her eyeballs.
Although it is the most important part, it is also the most shabby and weakest part without other body parts.
“…………”
But she had no choice.
If we delayed even a little longer, we might really end up at such a low level.
“That’s… No…”
That’s why Rumia, who was muttering while shedding a cold sweat, soon stretched out her hands forward.
– Sigh…
But the direction her hand reached was not the eyeball, which she could immediately reach, but the heart, which was a little far away.
“Just a little… Just a little more…”
It was her last struggle to secure as much body part as possible before retreating from this dimension.
– Kyurrr…
“……!?”
But those futile struggles soon went in vain.
– Sreuk…
“Nonsense… No way…”
Her
Once her own, but now a faithful servant of her River Sky, her whimper stretched out her tentacles and shifted her own position within her. It was something that was rejected.
“My… It was my body…”
– Kwirrr…
“It was my body!!!”
Lumia made an evil sound as if she was screaming at that sight, and her hand, which was turning pale because her blood was not flowing, finally reached the place.
– Tsuzuzuzuzuzu…
“aaah!!!”
It was the only eyeball left, staring shabbily at the sky.
“I’ll curse you!!!!”
– Pazuzuzuzuzu…
“The sky… And… Everything in the sky…!”
The next moment, the great prison Karma was enveloped in a black aura.
“I’ll curse you!!!!!!”
– Crumbling…!
The moment Rumia uttered those words that bordered on a curse, she began to collapse helplessly.
And, according to the report of the later team that arrived about a day later.
It is said that there, a hideous monster that was a fusion of monsters that seemed to have mutated from the squadron’s main ships and a girl was crushed into a cold corpse.
It was widely announced in the public as a terrible evil deed by the off-topic villain Trauma, and a skit occurred that unnecessarily created the highest level of tension in history in a hero society that had already regained peace.
In the skit, the fact that one of the four body parts of the ‘great being’, the most shabby part, disappeared from nowhere and was forever buried in a pile of ruins.
