Chapter 439 - Episode Eighty-Five - Red Dream (3)
I couldn’t believe my eyes.
The three Abel saws that were supposed to be run into Silfheim’s body suddenly disappeared.
It didn’t look like their power had been dampened and then disappeared.
Its figure just suddenly disappeared.
“Wha, what just happened ……?”
The eyelids of the face of the Silfheim’s chest …… the “Red Dream”, were again silently closed.
Perhaps it should be related to that.
Before the Abel saw disappeared, that eyelid that was frozen like a statue was twitching.
“Abel …… It’s a myth now long forgotten, but it was once believed that there was a creator god. It is not just a high-ranking spirit like the four great gods, but a being that we can never define. It is said to have been asleep and created this world in a dream. It was said that all the scenery and life in the world were merely dream-like creations of its unconsciousness.”
Kudor began to speak to me, while she and Silfheim were working together.
It was a myth that I did not know, as Kudor had said before.
I think I had heard of a similar fairy tale in my previous life, but I couldn’t remember the details.
“Silfheim did a …… terrible thing. He …… connected his chest with a god that has been asleep since the beginning of time. He must have constructed it in 10,000 years.”
So, he linked his body with the god of creation ……?
In my mind, I suddenly saw the scene where the Abel saw had just been cut off.
“So you’re saying that Silfheim can change the world into whatever he wants it to be?”
“It’s hard to admit, but that’s the way it is …… Although, he can’t completely control it. But there is worse information. It’s not just its imperfect omniscience that’s troublesome.”
Hearing Kudor words, Silfheim opened his mouth wide and smiled.
“Exactly! Let me tell you …… each time I take damage, the “Red Dream”‘s sleepiness fades …… and the accuracy of my world altering abilities increases. And when the sleeping “Red Dream” is completely awakened, this world will disappear! Huhuhu …… hahahahaha! I have become a true god, myself! When I die, I will disappear, taking all the worlds …… or even all the dimensions with me! You will never be able to defeat me!”
T-The whole world with him ……?
The scale is so large that it makes me dizzy.
I was hoping that he was bluffing, but Kudor’s face was grim.
Kudor wasn’t sure until the Red Dream actually worked, but perhaps what Silfheim was saying was true.
I’ve heard that the High Elf King has lived too long and too well, and the spirits are no different.
Silfheim is terribly cowardly, arrogant, and therefore extremely dangerous.
“I don’t want to use the power of the Red Dream, which could wipe out the world if it gets out of control, but as long as you guys are against it, I have no choice but to keep using it. So just crumble obediently and become a part of my spirit body!”
The Red Dream’s eyelids twitched again.
This is the only reason why the tentacles of Kudor that were restraining Silfheim became thin, blackened and decayed.
“Wha ……!”
Kudor shouted in astonishment.
I was surprised, too.
When I fought it in the past, no matter how much magic I threw at it, I couldn’t properly destroy a single tentacle.
That power was just too foul.
Silfheim took advantage of the loosening restraints and grabbed Kudor’s flesh with six arms and threw her straight into the sea.
Kudor was slammed into the bottom of the sea in a straight line.
Many high waves rippled across the surface of the sea, and a huge, bottomless hole opened up in the middle of them.
The Red Dream’s eyelids stopped twitching, but they were still slightly open.
The whites of its eyes peeked out slightly from under his lids.
“It was a little too much …… The “Red Dream” had woken up about ten percent. Kudor is not the kind of being who would die for this, but …… let me get rid of you first, Abel Belek!”
Silfheim’s three unevenly sized eyes glared at me.
I’ve already taken control of the wooden dragon and was flying to escape.
I don’t think I can just leave the battle as it is, but I can’t allow Silfheim to approach me anyway.
It would be too reckless to make any move until Kudor returned.
Silfheim flapped his wings and come after me.
The pressure is great.
“Fall!”
The Silfheim raises one of his arms to the sky.
At the moment when I thought the sky lit up …… a huge thunderbolt fell on the wooden dragon.
The dragon’s protective wards barely defended against it, but we lost a lot of altitude.
However, the warding had been severely damaged by just one blow.
The next one might come before the auto-c repair was finished.
“Transmute!”
I shouted, and the two Ortems on either side chanted the same chant.
Three magic circles emerge.
The spirit body and atmospheric components, along with my magic power, will be used to create the Hydeem Magimetal.
The mass of Hydeem Magimetal that emerged from the air expanded into a dome to protect the top of the wooden dragon.
The Hydeem Magimetal is constructed to be highly resistant to magical phenomena, especially lightning and wind.
The greatest advantage of the Hydeem Magimetal is that it can change its properties at will.
With the dual protection of this and the wooden dragon’s protective wards, I should be able to outrun Silfheim’s magical attacks.
“Fall, fall!”
Silfheim raised his two arms to the sky.
The sky lit up twice, and the same number of lightning bolts rained down.
The shield of Hydeem Magimetal was cracked.
The wooden dragon shakes violently.
“T-That’s too much no matter how ……!”
The sky lit up twice more.
The Hydeem Magimetal shield shattered and the protective ward of the wooden dragon shattered.
The wooden dragon shook and lost altitude until it finally touched the bottom of the ocean.
I was blown away by the impact, rolling on top of it and slamming my body against the edge.
Somehow, I staggered to my feet.
The oncoming Silfheim had raised his arms wide to the wooden dragon that had fallen to the surface.
He’s planning to smash us down directly.
We no longer have the shield of Hidim Magimetal or the protective ward of the wooden dragon.
I thought I was going to be killed, but Silfheim’s movements froze in midair.
“I won’t let you, Silfheim ……!”
Kudor emerged from the surface of the sea.
She seemed to have dived under the surface of the sea to hide and then chased after him, reaching out tentacles from below to bind Silfheim’s limbs and stop him from moving.
It was just in the nick of time.
