Chapter 138.2: Gods of Nargol

I don't think we need to do that. Their first target will definitely be Elios. Zarxis isn't an idiot, he knows that he can't target this place. That's why his first target will definitely be Elios. It'd be even better if both of them destroyed each other. RibbitRibbitRibbit.

Heqat replied with a laugh.

Heqat didn't have a good impression of Elios.

Thus, she really didn't care about what would happen to Elios.

Alas, that would put Heibos in danger.

Heibos. Though aunty says their aim is Elios, what about Elios' side? Have they prepared countermeasures?

Modes asked Heibos with a worried face.

Oudith has already made his move. Though he doesn't tell me anything about it, he might already be aware of the fact that Zarxis is in Ruvania. The Holy Knight has been making quite a ruckus after all. Well, it's not like they can just invade that miasma-filled land. It's way too dangerous.

Said Heibos while combing his beard.

I see, that makes sense. That land is like Zarxis home ground after all. No normal person can survive in that land. But, that's why we can't just leave him to his own devices.

Said Modes while pondering by himself.

What was he pondering about I wonder?

What shall we do? Ribbit? And what are you worrying about, boya?

Aunty, Zarxis and Diadona are definitely up to no good. I'm really worried about what they're trying to do.

Said Modes with an extremely serious face.

Then don't worry about it. Ribbitribbit. Zarxis' freezing power is powerless before your black flame. The same goes for Diadona's ability. Ribbitribbit. Not to mention that you have that Dark Knight over there, you have nothing to worry.

Contrary to Modes serious attitude, Heqat seemed to be pretty optimistic about the situation.

Zarxis' freezing power didn't work against the holder of the black flame.

So that was the reason why I could move like usual back in Rox Kingdom.

In short, I'm like a nemesis for Zarxis.

Aunty, what if I say that their aim is to revive mother?

Ribbit?!

Heqat got startled the moment she heard Modes' remark.

She wasn't the only one.

Every God who attended the meeting started to make a ruckus too.

This time, Modes didn't even try to stop them.

Boya Do you really think that they're trying to revive, that Personage?

Asked Heqat with greasy sweat overflowing from her frog face.

Heqat, Draugon, and the other Gods were showing similar frightened faces.

Seeing their reaction, I realized that the problem was clearly not on the same level as the matter of Zarxis regaining his power.

That's right, aunty. Zarxis managed to regain his power through a method unknown to us. Doesn't that open the possibilities of a method for reviving the dead, Loughas?

Said Modes as he looked at Loughas.

Surely, it's not like such a method is impossible. The method is just unknown to me. And possibilities aside, I think both Zarxis and Diadona will surely come up with a method to revive the dead.

Replied Loughas while shaking his head.

His face was also filled with anxiety.

That's definitely one huge problem. Ribbit. And a problem that we have to confirm immediately. Will someone volunteer to go to Modegal to investigate the situation? Ribbitribbit.

Asked Heqat as she looked around.

And yet, everyone was averting their gaze.

Draugon did so while whistling unnaturally.

Heqat-dono. That's an unreasonable request. That land is filled with Zarxis freezing power. The only one who who can resist his power is the holder of black flame among us.

One of the Gods stepped forward as he spoke.

He was the God with the lower body of a horse, the Wise God of Wind, Sagittarius.

Sagittarius was the youngest of the four sibling Gods revered by the centaurs.

And the one thing that made him different from his lustful and violent siblings was the fact that he was the most rational one.

Though he normally lived in the Kisonia plain, just like Draugon, he came all the way to Nargol to attend the meeting of the alliance.

In addition, Sagittarius was a gifted martial artist, and his skill with the bow was said to be comparable with Alphos.

Safittarius is right, aunty. Trespassing directly into that land is a suicidal act. We should observe the situation from the outside first. Then discuss what to do next with everyone.

But that might be too late when we do that, ribbit.

Said Heqat while heaving a sigh.

Please wait a minute, Heqat-sama! I'll go! I'm also a holder of black flame so I can definitely fight that re

The one who stepped forward was Runfeld.

No! You can't, Runfeld-dono!

But, Modes stopped him before he finished his sentence.

Zarxis is strong. Even if you can neutralize his freezing power, you're no match for him.

Runfeld had no choice but to grit his teeth as he accepted that harsh reality.

That's right, Runfeld. You're strong. But, Zarxis is simply out of your league. That's why you absolutely cannot go since you're definitely going to die. Alas, how about that Dark Knight over there I wonder? Ribbitribbit.

Said Heqat as she pointed her gaze at me.

Honestly I knew what she wanted to say at this point.

In short, she wanted me to go instead. The reason was because I'm also a holder of black flame, and I'm strong enough to fight against Zarxis even in his full power.

U~hm Shall I go to investigate that place?

Heqat revealed a complacent smile when I said so.

Modes on the other hand was clearly worrying about me.

Kuroki. If I have to name someone who can win against Zarxis in his home ground aside from this Modes, that person is definitely you. But, it doesn't mean that you're free of danger. Though I'm curious about what they're trying to do, I do not wish you to push yourself.

But, Modes still said those words while shaking his head.

Looking at Modes and the other Gods in this place, I realized that they were serious about the fact that we couldn't leave Zarxis to his own devices.

Let's think a bit more.

I felt something really dangerous when I was confronting that Reaper.

It felt as if he was the antithesis of life itself.

Thus I've been wondering what Zarxis was thinking about back then.

That's why I wanted to see the situation for now.

The reason being I was also someone who lived in this world.

Maybe Heqat was right, I was the most suitable person for this mission.

But still, I've to go. I'll withdraw the moment I feel like the situation will get out of hand.

I made it clear.

And then, my line of sight intersected with Modes.

It stayed like that for a while.

I see, be careful, Kuroki.

Modes heaved a sigh as if he gave up.

It seems he had no choice but to accept that this was indeed the best choice.

I nodded upon hearing Modes' remark.

Well then, let's see what Kuna is going to say now.
