I Became an Immoral Child in the Game

23 – 5-Godhead

*

The fire was like water.

The reddish-red flame formed a lake like liquid without being lava.

Even though I was holding fire, I felt the heat.

The pupils were white and it seemed like they were ripening deliciously.

Holding my face, I turned my vision blurry with heat and looked around.

A quiet flame in the red sky, like a setting sun.

When I moved my feet, there were waves as if there were waves in a calm lake.

“This is my new station 『Flame Palace』. As the owner of this place, I will welcome guests who have been visiting for a long time.”

I saw a woman beyond my field of vision shimmering with heat.

Who is this woman sitting with her white legs crossed loftily on top of the crimson glowing iron throne, heated by the heat?

She couldn’t understand it with her head boiling over her brain.

“Keuheugh!”

I couldn’t bear to look at his eyes looking down with his chin resting like a tiger ruling the hills.

My body was cooking deliciously, spitting out broth like meat in an oven.

“Divine Realm is a unique area that only the existence of a godhead can possess. It is a space of images and a place where the essence of a god is located. If he is not killed here, the god can be revived as many times as he wants.”

The woman slowly descended from the throne.

The closer she came, the hotter her sun was.

-Chiiyiik

The bones exposed under the burned flesh boiled and gushed out marrow.

“Haaa!!”

“Do you understand what it means to face a godhead?”

As she approached, her heat grew so intense that I crawled hard to the other side of her.

“……Huh…Huh….”

“This is the punishment for not heeding my advice. I’m glad I ended up like this even after disobeying God.”

The flames grew more roaring with each step she took.

She lost consciousness as she felt even the remaining moisture on her tongue boil.

The cut off accident came back when I felt her hand slowly approaching me behind my back.

As soon as she touched my body, she said, the flames that raged like hell were extinguished in an instant.

It wasn’t hot anymore.

Her bones were removed and her blackened body was restored.

It was only then that I realized who the woman approached me.

“……Jin?”

A woman who was somewhat inadequate to be called a lady and not fit to be called a girl was looking down at me with a face full of displeasure.

Befitting the name Jinn of Flame, his blazing sun-colored hair and scarlet pupils shimmered.

The geometric red lines engraved on the pure white skin were covering the body like a tattoo.

I stared at her for a while, her bewildered face.

Struggling not to stupidly ask ‘were you a woman?’

That’s right, because that’s an obvious cliché.

Even mass retailers have dignity that must be upheld.

Then, what should I say?

After thinking about it, I opened my mouth.

“The boobies are great.”

“You madman!”

– Puck!

Jin’s drop kick hit me in the face.

I was only able to stop after rolling several times.

“Is the first word you say to the life saver is s*xual harassment?! Do you know how much I’ve worked hard to purify your body from Qarha’s blight?!”

Ah, the burning of my body was not a punishment for ignoring my words, but a purification process.

That’s why it was so painful.

I’ll have to thank you separately later.

You must be very angry right now.

“It’s a shame that Qarha got mad and took out some useless attack magic. If he used his main skill, Necromancer magic, he would have been annihilated!”

Jin continued with a huff.

“I’m lucky. That’s awesome too! If Qarha had judged the situation a bit more rationally, he would have summoned a lich or a bone dragon instead of trying to kill himself. I can’t do anything because I don’t have a body. Do you know if I was nervous?”

Jin’s angry voice continued for a while.

It was a shame that the treatment worked because Hwa-jeong and her body were well harmonized, but hearing that she was able to go to the goal for real, I could understand Jin’s anger.

“The lungs could have been fixed somehow, but the arm was on the verge of being cut off! If you were dead or injured… That would have been my responsibility. Qarha approached the Humanity Lighthouse because he was looking for me.”

Oh, I see.

Jin’s anger was directed at himself rather than at me.

Through her own fault, she drove me to the brink of death, and in the midst of that, she felt helpless that she couldn’t do anything on her own.

Only then did I see what the cause of her sagging shoulders was.

How would it feel to have to run away with her tail curled up against an enemy who was nothing to her?

I couldn’t even dare to imagine.

“Kwarha, that son of a b*tch! Moloch’s Shard who didn’t even dare to look at me. What’s with me? A cockroach? I’m sure I’ll burn him to death!”

…… It seems that it was my misunderstanding that I was drooping.

“Well, anyway! It’s because I survived like this, isn’t that what it is?”

I offered comfort with a shy face.

Jin still had a displeased face, but she wasn’t angry anymore.

“You’re the only one in the world who ventured on such an adventure to the great demon of plague, Qarha.”

“My body is fine, right?”

“Yes, it healed properly. Do you think that’s all? Thanks to having endured Qarha’s poison, most poisons will not work on you from now on.”

I had to contemplate whether I should be happy or not when Jin said that he had passed the hurdle of death and had reached the state of invulnerability.

Think of it as a valuable passive skill acquired at the cost of life.

“It’s not all good news. Through this encounter with Qarhawa, the demon lord Moloch must have noticed that my seal was broken. Also, your personal information was leaked because you were fussing around unnecessarily. The demons are trying to kill you. I will move.”

“That’s a bit troubling news.”

Someone is constantly rolling it for fear that it is not a notorious orthodox fantasy novel.

Not only the enemies of the north, but now the demons are after my life.

It seems that it will take a little more time to turn this novel into a mass market.

“But didn’t I tell you that demons can’t be active beyond enemy lines? How do they target me?”

Of course, there are lower demons all over the continent of Esteria who hide in cold places.

However, they are hiding in a deep dungeon, and their connection with Moloch has been severed, making them weaker than they were originally and lacking intelligence.

“There is also a great demon that can neutralize the enemy ships if it is only you. And there must be foolish people who worship demons even in this era? I will use them.”

There were some guys who immediately came to mind at Jin’s words.

The Demon Cult.

I was told that the old traitors of mankind would appear to stand in my way.

“It’s just a matter of being late or early, they will definitely try to kill you.”

“I need to get stronger soon.”

“And find my body too.”

As if telling us not to forget, Jin added an afterword.

It was evident that she was determined to pay her back.

“Yes. When we first met, we set a condition of four years, but we have to move faster than that. So let’s renew the contract.”

“What? How are you going to fix it?”

“I’ll finish my northern job as best I can. And I’ll go find your body right away.”

It was a much better condition for Jin than before.

Jin muttered, ‘You’re finally listening to me’ with a young face in her excitement.

“There are conditions instead.”

“What is it?”

“When you get your body back, let me rub your breasts.”

“Just die!”

A fire so hot that even a god’s soul was extinguished wrapped around my face.

When I came back to my senses, it was three days after I met Qarha.

The initiation ceremony of the Humanity Lighthouse was always carried out with the corpse of the first demon encountered in Homeland.

It was part of his determination to reclaim his homeland from the devil without running away again.

Because of this, regardless of whether the demon you encountered for the first time was the lowest rank or the highest rank, the moment you encountered it, you had to make a life-or-death decision and bring the corpse to Paretta Island.

Sometimes, the instructors and candidates were lost due to high-ranking demons, but the tradition of the final test of the Lighthouse of Humanity was always kept.

But this time the situation was different.

Kwarhad, the Great Demon of Plague.

The great devil that even the human lighthouse knights, who are at least familiar with the devil, have only heard of in the Bible.

If you hit the earth, you’ve encountered a being like Baal or Abaddon.

Of course, the humanity lighthouse on Paretta Island was turned upside down.

From the suspicion that he had misunderstood the lich, to the question of whether it made sense to come back alive after facing such a great devil, the reactions were different.

However, such a question went into the water after seeing the supply and demand of the instructors on board the ship.

In the meantime, let’s give a round of applause for Amber’s meticulousness in taking care of supply and demand.

Anyway, it wasn’t enough to annihilate the four instructors who were sword experts in that short time, so who else could have been able to turn them into verbs in an instant, other than Qarha, the Great Devil of Plague?

Additionally, I, the eldest son of the De Yewitz family, made my own statement, and trust in the consistent testimonies of the candidates increased even more.

Because of this, no one dared to babble, saying, ‘We must follow the strict entrance ceremony of the Humanity Lighthouse.’

If someone had done that, I would have stepped in first and broken the bastard’s head.

However, due to an unexpected situation, the humanity lighthouse ceremony was not held on Paretta Island due to discussions on how to handle this matter, and it was delayed for a week even after the candidates returned to the lighthouse village.

At the same time as the sadness of losing the instructors, the candidates who came back alive even after facing the great evil Qarha became legends as soon as they returned to the lighthouse village.

Before the ceremony began, the candidates suffered from a barrage of persistent questions from senior knights.

Barton Wigner’s wit in the story stimulated the heroism of his senior knights.

The story of dazzling a huge enemy with verbal skills has been a popular subject throughout the world, so it was not strange that the status of Barton Wigner, who was a poor candidate, rose vertically.

My story of risking my life to save the candidates has become an example for the entire Humanity Lighthouse.

The 15-year-old eldest son of the De Yewitz family willingly gave his life for the Lighthouse of Mankind.

It was a banal catch-mind, but there was no material like this to arouse the loyalty of the Humanity Lighthouse.

After a long and long commotion, the last rite of the entrance exam, which has become a legend, has begun.

“Today, the members of the Humanity Lighthouse have gathered here to keep a long-standing promise.”

With the instructors’ supply and demand placed on the pyre of the boat, Lighthouse Commander Ragnar lit an arrowhead.
