EP.66 The Puppet Founder and the Unpleasant Puppet Play – 3
Outskirts of Tantalus where light cannot reach. An ominous and evil thing that dares not stand before God flinches in a place where both heaven and earth have abandoned. There must be something, but the veil of darkness completely covered their sins as well as their appearance.
That’s why Finlay was able to go out even though he dared to commit the mortal sin of manipulating the founders. If this had not been the abyss, if anyone had found out his guilt, he would have been slain straight away.
‘are you okay. I will pay for this sin later with my life. For now, if we serve only the principality, then the ancestors will understand us.’
Finlay looked at the vampire, feeling the guilt imprinted in his blood.
The vampire was sitting on top of the coffin, eyes glazed over. Without the parasol she always wore, with her arms hanging limply, she looked even more lifeless than usual.
It could be because of the pale skin without any blood.
Or maybe it’s because of the ominous darkness that surrounds it.
Or it could have been a large crack in his chest.
There was a large scar on the vampire’s chest. A red energy was pulsing through the gap, but it seemed like it was trying to go inside or get out.
“Sir, forgive me for my rudeness.”
Finlay wrapped his hand around the blood that flowed through the gap. Then, he shouted loudly so that it all echoed in the darkness, and at the same time vigorously grabbed his blood.
“Sir Sijo! Let the Blood Demon obey my will!”
pounding.
Finlay’s hematology squeezed the vampire’s heart. Blood pulsated violently. The vampire’s carotid artery swells up, and the forceful blood flows into the head.
After that, a blurry focus flashes for a moment. The unconnected reason carries out the orders given piecemeal.
however.
[Pu hee hee hee.]
The blood demon, who was supposed to listen to the order, only snorted.
Finlay lowered his arm in despair. Ralion, the blood horse that is currently the strongest power of the founder, did not show any reaction even though Finlay dominated the founder.
Finlay shook his head.
“Does this mean you can’t listen? Or are you not understanding my commands? Whoa…”
He muttered, and the moment he let go of his blood, Finlay instantly felt death.
The blood horse’s hooves landed on his head. The blood-red hooves that had turned countless humans into flesh pieces came in in an instant without the slightest hesitation.
Huung.
It was too heavy to be called wind. Just the pressure of the wind had taken Finlay to his knees and to the ground. The giant feet of the blood demon, the size of a house, were so large that they covered Finlay’s entire body, and there was no crack in the blood iron horseshoe made of smelted blood.
If you go down another 50cm from here, Finlay will disappear as a handful of bloodstains. You might be able to play it if you work hard for a long time, but it’s a fluke. In the meantime, Shijo, who has come to his senses, can stop Finlay’s life and retrieve his blood.
but.
“Keugh keugh. I see The founder’s order has already been properly delivered…”
Finlay did not die. The reason is simple. It was because Ralion didn’t stomp his hoof all the way down.
Under big hooves and on hard concrete. Finlay knelt in the close gap and muttered in a trembling voice.
“You must be impatient to kill me, who dared to dominate the founder. but you can’t kill me Because even if it is not the will of the founder, it is the order of the founder!”
[Pu-hee-hee-hee.]
“Okay! that is enough. As long as I rule the ancestors, you will eventually obey my orders! Ha ha ha!”
Ralion looked displeased and turned his head away. And I stepped into the invisible darkness with my own feet. As if declaring that I will no longer see this spectacle.
The sound of horses’ hooves faded into darkness. It was only after the sound stopped that Finlay was able to pull himself together.
Finlay, who witnessed the blood demon’s tremendous power, was reminded of how reckless he had committed.
Overwhelming size, weight and strength. Ralion, a blood horse with bloody footprints who can defeat an army alone. Even such a mighty Blood Demon obeys its ancestors wholeheartedly.
The power of the progenitor is dominance. The power to spread blood everywhere, manipulate what it touches, and create a powerful familiar.
Finlay took the reins and led such great power.
power in a minute. The reaction of the person holding it is one of two things.
were you afraid
Were you delighted?
Finlay was the latter.
“Khehehe. Ha ha ha! I have the power of a god!”
The founder’s power, which seems to bind the blood of the whole body, is now quietly asleep. It’s because the founder himself reaped it, not anyone else. In that state, he is controlling the founder’s heart with blood manipulation.
If so, isn’t it no different from Finlay now possessing the power of the founder?
“The founder must have recognized me. It is clear that you agree with me! Otherwise, there’s no way I’d be able to use the power of the founder!”
While intoxicated and delighted with the overwhelming omnipotence.
The vampire suddenly raised his head.
Surprised, Finlay sighed. Maybe Sijo came to his senses? Finlay called the vampire nervously.
“Are you Sijo?”
I didn’t think about where the vampire’s eyes would fall. Finlay’s trembling gaze followed the vampire’s.
And then he let out a laugh.
“I warned you, but you really didn’t waste your life?”
Standing proudly there was a regressor holding a red orb in one hand.
It was me carrying a large bag behind my back.
When you focus your mind, you can hear your thoughts clearly. Only Finlay’s, of course. Vampires are in a state similar to being half asleep, so they cannot be read clearly.
If there is no consciousness, there is no thought. I don’t even remember.
The feeling of reading a book in the dark light. A state of vaguely repeating a story someone told you. It seemed impossible to wake him up without direct contact.
good. Mind reading is over.
I asked the regressor who was looking over there with a terrifying expression from a hand’s breadth away from me.
“Did you see it?”
“huh.”
The red eye is the eye that sees ten of the seven colors.
Among the seven-color eyes, the six-color eyes see far.
The regressor, who saw through the darkness with his left and right eyes, gritted his teeth and growled.
“That child Tyrkanjaka’s Dark Knights are hiding in the shadows…”
“Fortunately, Ralion doesn’t seem to recognize Finlay.”
“Even so, it won’t be on our side. It is better not to believe it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, naturalization disappeared from the eyes of the regressor. The regressor, who returned with black eyes, squeezed his eyes for a moment as if he was tired.
“are you okay?”
“No problem. Just press for a second.”
When he removed his hand again, the regressor’s eyes were shining as sharp as before. I looked forward again and said.
“According to the operation?”
“According to the plan.”
The regressor and I took a step from the realm of light illuminated by the daylight into darkness.
I feel like the darkness is moving. That ominous darkness was a living thing in itself, a mist of night that protected all vampires.
in the middle of it Finlay greeted us with arms wide open in the darkness, barely visible to the naked eye.
“I told you not to come. Is your ear canal blocked or is your life not worth it?”
The regressor snorted and replied.
“You’re not worth your life. Aren’t you crazy? How do you plan to rule the founder without the liver coming out of the ship?”
“Not domination! All we need to do is apologize for a moment and return the sijo to where it should be.”
“what the. Isn’t it domination to forcefully move without asking one’s will?”
“What do you think you know?!”
Finlay screamed hysterically. The regressor frowned at the cataclysmic attitude as if he had bipolar disorder.
“The founder wanted this to happen!”
“What bullshit?”
“If the Father had not permitted it, would the day have come when I would have his heart! From the time I gained this power to the moment I acted as the founder’s will! Everything is His will!”
As Finlay shouted, he could see madness as if he was drunk with power. He shouted in uncharacteristically vampiric excitement, blood spattering from his mouth instead of saliva.
“So my will is the will of the progenitor! I wanted the father to go to earth, so he decided to go up! If you interfere, it’s like rebelling against the founder!! If you are the servant of the founding father, bow your head and see him off. If you are the enemy of the founding father, be swept away by the irresistible bloodshed and perish! Decide, folks!”
It was without logic or rationality. To the point where I couldn’t imagine the attitude of a vampire with a cold heart.
The regressor raised a finger to his head and twirled it around.
“That kid is completely insane.”
“Because you’re crazy, you do crazy things to dominate the Tyrkanjaka trainees, right?”
“That’s right.”
“In addition, blood manipulation has already reached its limit because he was doing crazy things, so blood manipulation, which actually moves his body, has become unstable. It looks like the cold heart was bought and sold.”
Finlay, extremely agitated, was shouting his words whether we listened or not. The only listener was himself, but he didn’t care at all.
“Whoa. If we wait for those words to end, we will grow old and die first. Shall we start soon?”
The regressor nodded and I cleared my throat. Finlay’s raspy voice came from the darkness.
“I will go up to the ground and take revenge on the cunning prostitutes of Seonghwangcheong! We will blaspheme them and restore our former glory! Ha ha ha ha!”
“Gorgeous. They say that when you get older, you talk a lot, so why are you teasing your tongue so long?”
He let out a long sigh and intervened between his breaths. As is characteristic of an excited person, Finlay spewed vicious death at me who interrupted his words.
“Instructor! I didn’t like you from the start! dare!”
“thing! shut up look! I know it’s hard to be around an elderly person with dementia, but I have a lot to say too, right?”
“Chi dementia?”
When you see a machine that is easy to handle or a toy with a simple principle, you feel good. It’s because the way it moves as predicted gives a sense of stability.
To me, a fanatic like Finlay is an easy-to-handle machine.
If you flick the seizure switch, the desired reaction pops out.
“Dare to the founder of the city. Reckless!”
“Tirkanjaka? Even the name is cheesy! Did you deliberately make it difficult to sing? In addition, foolishly, he was deceived and dominated by his own household’s household! Who taught you to look like that?”
The regressor could not stand it and intervened.
“It is you. you idiot.”
“Aiko! It was me! In the future, I will not even be able to teach the instructor because I am ashamed!”
Finlay’s eyes widened and his mouth pursed as I insulted the vampire in a heated tone. It was because I was so shocked that I forgot to speak for a while.
good. You are now ready to listen to me.
“And you, Finlay, you are as stupid as the founder and don’t seem to realize it. Do you really believe that you can escape by flying into the sky when you are trapped in the abyss?”
Having said that, I laughed out loud. I, who had been laughing for a long time, stopped laughing for a moment and said,
“I can’t go anyway.”
The truth I’ve been working hard to find out. It wasn’t something that would be easily revealed, but I decided not to spare it.
“The bottomless pit is an infinitely falling land. i.e. what does it mean Coordinates in space have no meaning. You can’t get anywhere simply by falling or rising, stupid. If you can reach the ground simply by climbing up, then you can reach the ground by simply falling. But what? Are you bottomless? Aren’t you on the floor? What do you think it means?”
The preparations are almost complete. The regressor infused half of his mana into the red orb and then infused it with simple magic.
After confirming that, I slowly prepared to finish my speech.
“Do you want to know?”
Finlay, who was listening to me, reflexively nodded. Even in this darkness, his eyes were able to pinpoint me.
ok if so look good
“Here it is.”
I raised my finger and tapped my temple. Then, with a cold smile, I said.
“So if you can, take it out, you bastard.”
