Survival Story of a Sword King in a Fantasy World

Chapter 258

Creation of the World (2)

The six apostles of the Devil had devastated the center of the continent.

Their next destination was the countryside. Tens of thousands of corps of angels headed to all directions of Latna.

Even the Three Continental Powers couldn’t stand their offensive. Weaker countries couldn’t even afford such a battle. It took less than half a day for their capitals to burn down and collapse.

Several frontier kingdoms fell one after another.

Refugees who had lost their homes roamed over the ruined countries and were soon eaten by the monsters.

It was after the Alien monsters released from the Dungeon were scattered throughout Latna.

Unlike the angel corps led by the apostles, they didn’t move under anyone’s command. They only acted according to their instincts and were originally given purpose.

Inside and outside the Dungeons, their goal was one.

-Eat the intelligence of Latna.

The monsters that flocked crazy when many humans were gathered were not much different from that of the Dungeons. The larger the population, the more targeted they became.

The standard was about four digits.

If more than 1,000 humans gathered, the monsters were attracted by them.

The monsters trampled on countless estates, and the cities were covered with blood.

The whole of Latna became a Dungeon.

The human race was forcibly dissolved. Thousands of years of civilization had also disappeared.

All that was left was a small group of wanderers wandering in fear of the monsters.

And yet Latna did not give in.

There were still strong individuals who survived. They fought against the monsters with all their skills.

Considerable resistance ensued everywhere.

Genovia stood by Omphalos today like a pillar.

Except for a short stop at the Emerald Tower, her appearance hadn’t changed at all.

Sitting on the throne, day and night, without even sleeping, one could only see through numerous screens of light.

Unconsciously, she asked, “Aren’t you bored?”

Omphalos answered back.

“God doesn’t know boredom. It’s one of the few blessings I’ve ever been given.”

He grinned as he looked back at her.

“How terrible would it have been if I could feel it?”

She couldn’t agree more. Genovia was feeling the boredom.

She glared at the screens of light again.

They used to be dozens, but now they were in the hundreds.

What most of the screens showed was…

“There seems to be a lot of resistance.”

The Latnains were fighting against the monsters all over Latna.

Their great resistance was gone, but the small resistances were countless.

“Is this as planned as well?”

“Of course.”

The incarnation of the Devil nodded with satisfaction.

“Meat doesn’t taste good when it’s cooked to a crisp. My taste is medium-rare.”

There was submission in resistance, despair in submission, and hope in despair.

“How have you been?” 3333

A wave of light broke out at the Diamond Tower located north of the Dimensional Palace.

Zoom!

As the atmosphere shook, the power of God radiated and spread to the great world of Latna.

Tens of thousands of angels were scattered around the world.

They sank to the ground, folded their wings, looked up at the sky, and began singing hymns.

“Omphalos, my Lord.

May your will be done on Earth as it is done in heaven.”

“Ectos, you plagiarized that from Earth again.”

As Omphalos smiled, the angels hardened like statues.

The screens of light showed tons of messages.

[Installation of 48,950 columns of Kaldera has been completed.]

Tens of thousands of angels stood tall throughout Latna, becoming tens of thousands of angel statues at least three meters high.

[Phase 1, the planet predation procedure, Phase 1, has been finished. Take the next step.]

All the angel statues began to scatter strange energy everywhere.

[Phase 2, Heavenly Net’ has been activated.]

They heard a scream.

“Argh!”

Sezori covered her ears.

Even if she did, however, the scream didn’t stop.

“Argh!”

Hunters were dying one after another in the attack of the monsters.

She was in tears.

“Sobbing, sobbing…”

It wasn’t just her. Hundreds of refugees gathered here were all terrified.

She thought, in tears, ‘Why did the world become like this…’

She had lived in peace as a receptionist for the Hunter Guild in Onpros, but the world turned upside down in just a few days.

The angels of the Devil covered the sky, the kingdom of Xrad had collapsed, the city of Onpros was burned, and the ruins of the Dungeons, which was the Hunters’ hunting grounds, secured the heart of the city.

She ran away as fast as she could. Luckily, she survived and was among the refugees.

But soon, she realized.

They didn’t survive.

They just didn’t die.

They didn’t have a house to sleep in. There was no grain to put in the mouth.

All there was dirty muddy water to dampen the throat.

The only ones looking for them, exhausted and hungry, were the other monsters that came like slaves.

They escaped and prayed to the Goddesses.

‘Please save me. Please give me salvation.’

It didn’t work.

No matter how much they prayed, the Goddesses didn’t answer.

After the hierarchy died, they asked why the Goddesses weren’t responding.

Salvation was nowhere to be seen.

Grrrr!

With a roar, the fangs of the monster bit off the neck of the last Hunter.

All those who protected the refugees died. All that was left was those who were less than level 10, far from combat-capable.

‘Ahhhhh… this is the end…’

Sezori had accepted her death.

At that moment, an angel came down from the sky, became a beautiful statue, and began to spread its beautiful voice to everyone.

“Abandoned children of the Goddesses,

Our Lord will take care of you.

Pray, for the truth is told.

Bow and receive Omphalos’s approval.

He values his people.

He who has the sign of the Lord will no longer suffer.”

She had no choice. Abandoning the Goddesses was nothing compared to the fear in her heart.

She cried out loud.

“Omphalos, I will serve you!”

A pattern of the Devil appeared on the foreheads of everyone who prayed. At the same time, the monsters were pulled out in unison.

“Ah…”

Barely surviving, she was frightened.

The price to pay for betraying the Goddesses would be nothing but a fire in hell.

* * *

As time went by, their fear faded little by little.

None of the monsters encountered on the way attacked Sezori’s group. Rather, they avoided them, seemingly afraid of them.

It was a greater relief than the thought that life was guaranteed.

Their horror completely disappeared the moment they arrived in another village.

Yes, a village.

A ‘residential place where a large number of humans had gathered’ that had never existed until the evil of this world rushed out of the Dungeons.

The villagers, who had been granted the auspices of the Devil, welcomed the group.

The chief’s words, which burst into laughter, washed their hearts with warmth.

“Whether it’s the Goddesses or Omphalos, isn’t the one who saves your life right now the good deity?”

There were many empty houses because it was an abandoned village. It was enough to accommodate the whole party of the three.

In a decent house, she could sleep on a fluffy bed.

But starvation came before sleep. Shyly, she asked if they could share anything to eat.

Of course, she didn’t expect much. People didn’t have enough food to share in this world.

But the people of this town seemed to be healthy.

Then wouldn’t she get some food?

“Pray.”

The chief pointed to the sky.

“If you pray from the bottom of your heart, it will come true.”

Despite the mystery, the group knelt. With Sezori’s hands in her chest, she begged Omphalos for food.

“Omphalos…”

The Devil was different from the Goddesses.

Their prayer was immediately answered.

Dozens of heinous wolf-shaped monsters, about the size of a calf, appeared.

“Gasp!”

“M-monster!”

The people of the village were afraid, but their reaction was different.

“It’s rice!”

Almost as if they had been waiting, they began to beat up the monsters with clubs.

Unbelievably, the group of monsters was beaten to death after failing to rebel.

Ugh!

It was a terrible sight.

But Sezori didn’t feel terrible.

“Eat and drink. I give you Demon Dogs.”

There was a voice ringing in her head.

“This is the blood and flesh of our Lord. He will grant you utmost happiness.”

Everyone rushed into one dead body the size of a calf.

They tore the flesh with a knife and chewed it raw. They put teeth in the flesh and drank blood frantically.

Sezori approached the feast of barbarism as if possessed.

“Ah…”

Its flesh was so delicious.

Its blood was so sweet.

Strangely, she wasn’t displeased.

All she could feel was overwhelming satiety and burning pleasure.

“Ahhhh!”

She struggled with the happiness of losing.

* * *

“Why is that my blood and my flesh? Am I a dog?”

Omphalos grumbled.

“Where the hell did you pick up that phrase? From Earth again?”

Genovia asked bitterly, “Why don’t we just stop them?”

She had treated the Devil quite carefully at first. But Omphalos didn’t care about her attitude at all.

As a result, her original way of speaking was slowly popping out.

The Devil didn’t mind it this time either.

“I told you, I can’t stop them, and I’m afraid of what else to say.”

“Why don’t I teach you?”

“What should I say?”

“You can say it’s their daily bread.”

She answered without much thought, and Omphalos looked at Genovia with astonished eyes.

She shrugged her shoulders in embarrassment.

“What’s wrong with you?”

“This is the first time my question has been answered by one of my apostles. As expected, Kaldera can’t dare follow the new Earth.”

He shook his head and stared intently at the screen.

Doing nothing, Genovia could sense that he had done something.

The voice of the Devil changed immediately.

-I’m giving you the Demon Dog, so eat and drink.

-This may be the daily bread from the Lord and the happiness that has been bestowed upon you.

He might be the type to accept other people’s opinions unexpectedly.

“How are you? Are you alright?”

“It’s okay.”

Genovia replied roughly.

Honestly, it was a phrase. What did it matter anyway?

More than that, the change in the world that the screen of light displayed was more worrisome.

Throughout Latna, the faithful betrayed the Goddesses and began to serve the Devil. The momentum was only growing and never diminished.

Her eyes turned to the message at the bottom of the screen.

[Phase 2, Heavenly Net.]

[Progress: 12.8 percent.]
