The statue was so large that anyone who entered through the entrance gate would see it. There was a pond surrounding it, and those who entered would wash their faces there praising Amenus. Every hair on Gin's skin was bristling. No doubt, that was a place of worship, and the one they worshipped was Amenus. "I want to vomit." Gin heard Gargan holding her vomit beside him. His stomach also churned when he saw the ugly face of Amenus so big in front of him. Many purple-robed people and ordinary people worshiped Amenus like a god. Gin's nausea grew when he heard them cheering on Amenus. It was disgusting. Worse than human excrement. All this time, Gin had only heard about how evil Amenus was. Everyone was suffering by his madness. But here, Amenus was worshiped and considered a hero. What was more disgusting than this? Of course nothing. "You worship Amenus as a god?" Gin almost bit his tongue for saying Amenus's name and God in the same sentence. "Of course! God Amenus gave us new
Gin and Gargan didn't kneel with them, making their appearance very conspicuous. The woman who was leading the crowd stood up first. Their eyes met and Gin could feel a dark aura from her.The old woman took an axe. With a quick movement, she slashed the man's neck.Even Gin was very surprised by the unexpected action. The man's head fell, rolling in front of the people who were still bowing before him.When they saw that, the sound of laughter and cheers was very loud. They stood and danced like drunken people, not caring about the blood that was spilled below them."What the hell happens here?" Gin gulped. It was a very terrible sight.He thought, that man was a King or someone who was respected. They paraded him around the city, then worshiped him like a King. But then, they killed him. Was this what Amenus wanted?The girl who was trying to set him free must be his sister because they look alike. Her scream was muffled by the sound of music and people singing. She cried alone, her
"Who are you? Don't interfere with the sacred ceremony!"Those men yelled at him, but that yell certainly didn't have any effect. The man with red eyes approached Ellya, he didn't care about those men at all. He threw a shabby blanket over Ellya's body, covering her exposed body.When the red-eyed man was off guard, one of the men took a log and attacked him. But he easily caught his arm and broke it like breaking a stick."Aaaakkkkhhhh!" He was thrashing around in pain like a child.His friends started attacking him with magic, fireball, water ball, and even ice block. The red-eyed man created a barrier in the form of a huge magic circle. All fireballs and water balls missed him. However, the ice block hit his head, more like he deliberately let it.That woke Ella up. She was worried that the man would get hurt for helping her. But her worries were in vain because the ice block broke into pieces when it hit his head."W-what are you..." They stammered, trembling and frightened just b
Gin looked around. The people around him turned into transparent beings. Their bodies were like translucent water. Those people seemed to be calm about it. They weren't panicked or shocked. Some of them even waved at others.Gradually they began to disappear. When the sun shone brightly, the town was quiet again.Gin rubbed his eyes several times. He looked around like an idiot. In seconds, the place became as deserted as a ghost town. Only Gin and Gargan were still standing there."Where have they gone? Are they ghosts?" Gargan shouted. She hid behind Gin's back and slightly peeked over his shoulder.She saw a ghost through Gin's memory. That was one of the unpleasant memories she wanted to forget. Even a sacred being could also be afraid of ghosts.Gin could not answer that question. He hated ghosts the most. But a disaster couldn't tremble because of ghosts. It was so embarrassing.He looked around at several shops. All the belongings of the people just lay there while the owner di
The castle yard was empty with bloodstains on the floor. But the dead man's body and head were missing. Gin sharpened his senses, maybe someone else was carrying his dead body.Or that man himself who took it."I know you're still here," Gin said.Gargan was surprised when a man came out from behind the wall. She didn't notice, his presence was quieter than the wind.The man didn't wake up when Gin revived him. Gin thought he was failed. But then he knew why he didn't get a failed notification. That man was alive and his head reconnected with his body.Gargan was on alert, preparing to transform into a sword again. But Gin shook his head slowly, there was no dangerous aura around that man.The man named Zack walked hesitantly. He looked confused and frightened. When he arrived in front of Gin, he kneeled."Why are you sitting there? Stand up.""No sir. I know you are the one who set me free.""I raised you from the dead because I have something I want to ask. Do you know where Amenus
"I don't need disciple."Gin rejected him coldly for the umpteenth time.Zack raised his face. His eyes filled with tears like a puppy's. "Please, Sir. Then let me be your servant. My sister and I will accompany you wherever you go.""I don't need accompanies."Gargan enjoyed this sight. She also had a hard time convincing Gin to accept her. He was not easy unless Zack could be of use to him."I'll bring your belongings!""I only brought a bag of clothes.""I'll dig a well for you!""I can do it myself."Gin walked away and Zack started following him again. Zack didn't give up. He had no chance to live in this city, the only one who could free him and his sister was only Gin."I will do whatever you want. Even kill someone!"Gin suddenly stopped, making Zack almost bump into his back if Gargan hadn't glared at him."You don't even know my name. You don't know what I am."Zack's face showed seriousness. "That's right! My name is Zack! I don't care what are you, sir."Gin clicked his to
For three days Gin lived in the hut. At noon he walked out, looking for a hidden way where he could catch the old woman who was the leader of the city."Madam Larry, that's what we call her. She is the leader of the Amenus cult," Ellya said as Gin discussed the old lady.It was the third night, the perfect time to carry out the final plan. After making sure there were no guards outside, Gin came out with Gargan.“My Lord, are you sure you want to steal the axe? But it's just an ugly axe!”“If it really is a sacred item, then I need it. Weren't you able to feel something when you saw it yesterday?” Gin lowered his voice so no one could hear. Luckily, the market was getting busier in the middle of the night so no one noticed them.Gargan shook her head weakly. "No. I'm sure we're from different worlds, we can't feel things like that.”Gargan was still pouting. She was not happy because Gin was trying to get another holy object. She wouldn't be the only one for him anymore. However, she
The fire grew bigger and entered the room, burning down all the curtains on the windows. Dense smoke filled the room, hurting the eyes and choking the neck.Amidst all the chaos, Gin was still grappling with the axe that wouldn't budge. Gin used all of his strength, but the axe remained still.He could split the earth with his strength, but this corroded and rusty axe couldn't even lift. The axe was very heavy and stuck to the glass case."How come it's this heavy," Gin muttered while trying to lift it again.Madam Larry took it as if it was nothing. She even threw this axe easily. But why couldn't Gin do it? Was that old woman stronger than him? It was impossible."What are you doing?" Someone spoke from behind Gin's back.Gin fell silent. He knew it was Madam Larry's voice, she probably went back inside after remembering about the axe they left behind. Gin cursed under his breath, he took time too long."I'm sorry madam. I just wanted to save this axe from the fire," Gin said, still
