“It appeared along with the stormy climate, swallowing up the ‘Blue’ that first emerged from the ocean. I don’t know how you can describe that creature nicely, the one who managed to eliminate the scourge that will swallow up buildings, folks, livestock and the house itself. The creature that removed ‘Blue’…… The easiest way I can describe it could be the eight-headed dragon.”
「Perhaps this entire eight-headed dragon truly represents Kutanid, huh?」
「However Kutanid is definitely an octopus, proper?」
「If an octopus wiggles its tentacles arduous sufficient, it simply would possibly seem to be a dragon for many who are distressed or scared.」
「I see! All of it is sensible now!」
No, no it doesn’t. I imply, technically octopi doesn’t have ‘heads’ per se, however you can nonetheless name it a head for those who actually wished to.
However so far as the diary’s textual content was involved, was Kutanid maybe one thing just like the savior of this metropolis? It certainly gave that type of vibe.
“For us who had been in dire want of salvation, it felt just like the divine intervention of Gods themselves. Even when it could turn into even higher scourge than the ‘Blue’.”
“We had been so overjoyed that ‘Blue’ was no extra that we now have failed to appreciate that the ability of our savior was a lot worse and far more sinister compared.”
“Lastly, the ‘Blue’ was silenced, God has gained. With the town not in peril, and other people protected to go away, we ordered for the gates to be opened up after the longest of time.”
“Then we now have knelt earlier than our new God. Not as a result of we had been ordered to, however as a result of we wished to.”
「S-Sequel! Give me the sequel! I’m curious what in it, too!」
「Not that it pursuits me within the slightest, it’s only for the knowledge gathering…… However I see that our pricey Rei can’t wait to see what is going to occur subsequent. Simply look how keen she appears to be like to show the web page.」
「Ah, ahahaha……」
“The God answered our prayers in his divine grace. After which the God spoke. My identify is Kutanid, the one who resides over the Abyss. Whereas not God himself, I wield divine powers.”
“In return for saving us, God wished us to surrender our land in return.
「I swear to God, if that’s all there’s to it, I’m gonna begin laughing.」
「Effectively, that would definitely be slightly……」
The road right here was actually skinny. I imply, I get it. Kutanid is de facto highly effective. However that it precisely why he didn’t need to do issues in such a roundabout manner. As a substitute of toying with folks and making them endure, he may have spared them the ache and worry and provide assist and demand compensation instantly.
“The God desires this land…… This right here Lulilas, however not its inhabitants. And within the wake of our infant-like ignorance, we the folks requested God: will you drive us out of our land?”
“Nonetheless, God didn’t turn into indignant with us, and answered: ‘Blue’ has permeated this land to its very core, so it’s not appropriate for people to dwell in it. He stated that ‘Loopy Blue Horde’ will finally seem once more right here. Due to this fact this very island must be returned to the underside of the ocean, whence it got here from. If its destruction that you really want, then I’ll allow you to proceed to dwell your lives as you used to.”
…… I ponder if Kutanid is the great man on this story? And that entire ‘Blue’ factor was actually beginning to rub me off within the actually incorrect manner.
“It’s extremely unlikely that anybody is ever going to learn this diary, however however I’m going to go away it right here on this fort. It’s the proof that there as soon as existed the nation of Lulilas, and that I used to be as soon as its ruler.”
“The time we depart is close to. We will board the remaining ships and go away this land perpetually. As our due to God for salvation, this fort goes to turn into his cradle. The throne is embedded with new monument, an oath that passes the ceremony to rule the land. That was my final obligation as a ruler.”
That is it. That’s most likely the occasion flag that we had been in search of. A keystone positioned on the throne by the ruler of this metropolis…… It most likely has one thing to do with the truth that this entire place acquired inverted.
Regardless of how a lot you concentrate on it you’d by no means assume that the entire metropolis has one thing to do with the boss gimmick. Or reasonably, the merchandise that will in any other case solely be the image of the best to rule this land. That image ought to function the important thing to unraveling Kutanid’s true type.
「The query now could be this: what will we do about that image?」
「Will we simply break it like that?」
「No, let’s not do this for now. For all that we all know, there is perhaps another solution to take care of it.」
The remainder of the diary…… Fuck, it ends there? I do know, I do know, it could be TOO good to have the entire story written right here, however can’t you simply give us slightly bit extra?
「On the very least we all know the place to go for now. Allow us to be part of with the Rust’s group close to the throne room and see what they managed to search out.」
「Nothing right here. How about over there? Any luck?」
「In the interim? No luck right here as nicely.」
Earlier than we truly knew it, we now have spent a lot time looking for clues to defeat Kutanid that the hour was already round 3:00 a.m. We had been all prepard for grueling battle and attainable exploration, nevertheless it was an indisputable fact that we had been all fatigued.
「Perhaps we must always all take a break actually quickly, however for now, allow us to trade info. Group A managed to search out some type of a diary within the room that regarded like workplace or a research. It talked about that this metropolis was an island and mentions some type of jewel within the throne room…… And that’s about it.」
「Group B truly encountered a monster on the prime of the fort, and it dropped this after we killed it.」
Whereas saying that, Rust pointed in the direction of a bit of headgear that was resting on prime of her head. It was a small, however intricately made crown. It additionally had some actually conspicuous-looking empty areas proper in the midst of it, nearly suggesting that there was one thing lacking in there.
「I don’t…… Truly assume that it’s irrelevant, however for now let’s take a brief break. I noticed that a few of the rooms in right here had beds in it, so let’s take that chance to sign off and take an hour for a break.」
We nonetheless had time to look the throne room earlier than truly beginning our decisive battle towards Kutanid.
