Unfinished Monster (2)

It was in the midst of a confrontation.

Seo Mun-yeop, who was in the pose of throwing a spear at the fallen high priest, suddenly.

Whirik!

After spinning around without throwing, he threw a spear at the monster in front of the altar.

Chow ah!

A spear that had not been unlocked as a weapon flew towards the monster.

The corrupted High Priest, who thought he was throwing a spear at him and prepared himself for defense, was startled.

Why did he suddenly throw a spear at a monster that was still?

But something even more surprising happened.

Kwajijik!!

The moment it was about to hit one of its eight heads, the monster avoided it by moving its head to the side.

The spear was driven deep into the wall.

Seo Moon-yeop took out another spear and opened his mouth.

"I knew it. My senses cannot be fooled."

It was almost instinct.

While engaging in a fierce confrontation with the corrupted high priest, Seo Moon-yeop felt a foreign presence in his senses.

It was the sign of the monster he had met in the dungeon. However, it was also a new presence that I had never met before.

Of course, I couldn't help but get nervous about the monster enshrined in front of the altar.

So, without thinking for a long time, I threw it out of the window.

It was right.

Because the monster moved to avoid being pierced by the spear.

-Oh, it must have been unfinished yet?

The fifth senior priest, who was in charge of the monster production, muttered in surprise.

The other priests did the same.

It was a mystery how the monster, which was still incomplete and did not gain life, moved on its own.

The only ones unperturbed were Seo Moon-yeop and Pietro.

"Right."

Pietro opened his mouth as if he noticed something.

Seo Moon-yeop asked.

"Do you think you know what happened? You said that was still unfinished?"

"It must be incomplete. Because I didn't have to complete it."

"What do you mean, that?"

Pietro looked at the fallen high priest and said.

"The spirit is undead. yes?"

-·······.

The Corrupted High Priest expressed his affirmation in silence.

"Spirit Undead? As a monster?"

Seo Moon-yeop's expression became even more unknown.

As for the analysis plan, the abilities of the monsters still did not come out. It was proof that he was not alive. Judging by this, Pietro's guess was correct.

"I have never heard of a monster leaving a ghost after dying, and I don't know how to deal with it. How can we guide the monster's command when we can't even communicate?"

Pietro's words continued.

"Even I can't do it, but I can't even think that you did it the first time. Then there is only one answer."

Naturally, the arrogance of looking down on the opponent came out from the horse, but the corrupt high priest also did not show any displeasure, as if he readily acknowledged this.

"This is what the monster of the prophecy did."

"That guy in the Abandoned World? Even dealing with the commandant?"

"I go to the spirit world on my own, so there's nothing strange about dealing with the spirits."

However, the scary part was that he learned to connect to the spirit realm and handle the dead spirits by self-education.

In a world where there were only monsters for eons of time, the fact that he had evolved his intellect to that point alone was truly terrifying.

"To deal with the spirit, you have to communicate. A person who can handle spirits and knows how to communicate with monsters. I can only guess at one such being."

"Is it possible to create a spirit undead here even though it is far away?"

"So the body must have been made by these guys. And the monster of prophecy must have sent the commander here after killing his subordinate monster. Then you can understand why the monster was modified so hard. It was remodeled like that to make it look as close to the specter as possible."

Serpent, a giant serpent clad in iron armor.

However, it is much larger than the average serpen, with 8 heads, 10 legs, and huge wings on its back.

It was literally a monster that had been modified to be as powerful as possible with all its might. It gave me chills to think that there were many such monsters living in the abandoned world.

Thinking of this, Seo Mun-yeop shook his head.

"No, you can't be scared before fighting."

The emperor of Maninleung, who had defeated such a monster of prophecy once, felt great.

- Kreurreuk.

The monster finally opened its mouth.

It only made a cry, but it was clearly different from other monsters.

"Even though I had respiratory organs and vocal cords, I made a sound by vibrating my aura. It means knowing how to communicate."

Pietro explained.

Seo Mun-yeop was nervous and gripped his shield and spear.

He was canceling his weapon spiritualization to save his aura, but he was ready to re-open it at any time.

It was a huge and powerful monster, the type that Seo Moon-yeop did not like to deal with. Since it was undead, it was even more difficult because there was no analysis plan.

"You mean you can talk?"

"no. Seeing what I can't understand, it's just an animal-level expression."

If it was a language, the underground people here would have understood it right away and mastered the language of the monster. Seeing that he couldn't, fortunately his intelligence didn't seem to be that high.

-Kreurreuk.

The monster cried quietly once again, focusing its eight pairs of eyes on Seo Mun-yeop.

It wasn't violent, but it sounded like it contained anger.

However, it was strange that he did not try to attack Seo Moon-yeop and stayed still.

"With a size like that, why do you just flirt without attacking? man, come on! I'll pluck out your eyes!"

I shouted and provoked the monster, but the monster didn't budge.

At that point, Seo Mun-yeop began to have doubts.

"Isn't that bastard's body still unfinished, so his movements are inconvenient?"

I decided to try it out once.

Poof!

He quickly turned the spear into a weapon and threw it.

This time I aimed for the torso.

however.

Hurry up!!

Huge wings spread out.

Wielding huge wings wide enough to reach both ends of the temple, the monster launched its gigantic body into the air.

The monster rose all at once to the top of the ceiling of the temple and clung to the wall with its 10 legs.

As it was, the eight heads continued to stare at Seomunyeop.

It was only for a short time, but Seo Moon-yeop became dumb because of the tremendous pressure the monster showed.

"You move well."

Pietro quietly expressed his appreciation.

- Ohhh! fly well!

The fifth high priest who created the monster expressed joy. Because making that huge monster able to fly smoothly was indeed a difficult task.

- Did you see it! How great is the light of the beginning!

Suddenly, the corrupted high priest shouted.

-The light of the beginning gave us the spirit of a monster to give us strength!

- Oh, yes!

-The light of the beginning did not abandon us!

Priests sympathized with this and gained hope. It was the belief that the current unfavorable situation could be reversed.

However, Pietro said to this.

"What kind of pseudo-idea is the belief that the light of the beginning is omnipotent? As a heroic spirit who has existed since the beginning of time, he only guides us correctly with the wisdom he has accumulated over eons of time. Are you really a priest?"

- Shut up, heretic!

"Stop looking at the truth, first one. The reason why that monster can fly smoothly is not because the fifth one made it well, but because the spirit of a monster that is good at flying originally dwells. Where else could such a monster exist except in an abandoned world?"

-shut up! Are you insulting your ancestors and denying what the light of the beginning did!

The Corrupted High Priestess screamed in anger.

Seo Moon-yeop shook his head.

'It's no use. I have already pledged my soul to an oath of allegiance. There's no way he'll admit his mistakes unless it's irreversible.'

Even if he realized his mistake and regretted it, if he couldn't undo it anyway, the only thing he could do was to stubbornly push through to the end. The more enterprising and ambitious the type, the more so.

There is an absolute religious belief that it is the light of the beginning, but hasn't Pietro shown before that even that can be reduced to a means?

The corrupted high priest shouted at the monster hanging from the ceiling.

- Fight! Kill those humans!

But the monster didn't move.

There was not even the slightest reaction.

All eyes were just on Seo Moon-yeop, and the fallen High Priestess didn't seem to care.

The corrupted high priest felt embarrassed when the monster didn't even pretend to listen to his instructions.

"You don't understand why the monster doesn't attack you?"

Pietro asked.

Seo Moon-yeop also nodded without knowing it.

'I'm curious too. Why doesn't that bastard fight?'

It wasn't a frightening look. It seemed that we had to fight.

But would you say it's very prudent?

The monster's demeanor gave off a sense of wariness.

said Pietro.

"It's not that simple. Because I have experience of being severely beaten by a weapon that became a spiritual body."

"ah!"

At those words, Seo Mun-yeop burst into exclamation. Pietro really seemed like a genius.

It was speculated that the commander of that monster would be a subordinate of the monster of prophecy.

If that conjecture is true, the other conjectures follow immediately.

In the distant past, he had fought against the Emperor of Maninling.

He was the emperor who defeated even the monster of prophecy.

If he had the experience of being severely beaten by the weapon he wielded, the greatsword that became a spiritual body, the current situation would be explained.

Because he has experienced being victimized once, he is unable to attack Seo Moon-yeop, who knows how to transform into a weapon, and is wary.

"How are you? First one. If we explain it according to our claim, doesn't everything make sense?"

The undead priests also nodded in agreement. They were glaring with hateful eyes at the corrupted high priest whom they had followed until a moment ago.

- High Priestess, is what the author said true?

The fifth senior priest asked the corrupted high priest in an awkward tone. It was a tone that lingered in confusion as to whether he should continue to follow him.

- Do not doubt. Everything is the plot of that heretic. It has a plausible logic and even dead priests are awakened as undead to make them sympathize with the lie.

At the insistence of the corrupted High Priest, the Priests were more confused and confused. That also sounded right. Everyone knew how smart the former High Priest Pietro was.

"Ah fuck, decide whether to attack or not! How long are you going to rest?"

Seo Moon-yeop shouted, unable to see. It seemed that he could not stand his impatient temper and shouted, but he had his own calculations.

The enemy's self-restraint was welcome, but now it seemed that the corrupted high priest would have to give it more time to sort out the confusion.

'If they get lost, in the end they will choose which side they want to believe in.'

This was human after all. An insignificant human being whom they regard as a worm. Rather than turn this way, in the end, he would follow the fallen high priest as he always did.

But that was then.

-Kreurreuk!!

A monster's cry echoed from above.

louder than before.

Happiness!

Spreading its wings left and right, it seemed as if it would fly at any moment.

At last, even the monster decided to fight.

Seo Moon-yeop's voice shrank without even realizing it.

"You, not you, man."

Pietro also prepared to fight again.

"In the end, you have to fight. Think about who controls that monster."

monster of prophecy.

"Since it is far beyond time and space, I can't give you detailed orders, but there are probably a few basic instructions set under control."

"Kill a human?"

"That would be necessary."

-Kwaalala!!

The monster finally roared.

As if to explode his suppressed anger, he started to fly straight toward Seo Mun-yeop.

The sight of the huge body falling straight was reminiscent of a storm in itself.
