167 – Even if dirt gets into my eyes (2)

There is one thing I forgot because I was struck by lightning every time I visited the Gulag.

Thunderbolt is the power and symbol of the Gulag. Therefore, the interpretation varies depending on how the lightning strikes.

For example, if lightning strikes the altar where a sacrifice was made, it can be said to be a positive answer.

If the lightning strikes somewhere other than the altar, it is a suspension, and if nothing happens, it is a denial.

Among them, the fact that lightning strikes a person who offers a sacrifice can be interpreted as an overwhelming injustice among all injustices.

This is the so-called ‘heavenly punishment.’ But I had been hit by so many lightning strikes so far that I forgot about it for a moment.

Why am I explaining this now is because where I am is the temple of the Gulag. The altar closest to the gulag.

“Gu, Gulag-nim is angry!”

“What on earth is that bastard? What did he do that Lord Gulag punished him with heaven?”

“Oh my God, you didn’t even offer a sacrifice. How disrespectful…!”

It was surprising that lightning struck in the dry sky, and the lightning struck me exactly.

Anyone can see that this is a situation where the Gulag has personally inflicted heavenly punishment. It was a bit absurd from my perspective.

‘No. You even kissed me. But why?’

It was a time when I was sighing in despair.

Heinkes, the priest who watched the whole scene, erased his surprised expression and hardened his face.

He is also a believer in the Gulag, so he seems to have realized how serious this situation is.

“······Gulag seems uneasy. And he seems to care for Sister Kara a lot.”

“Huh? Ah, yes. It’s true that you care about me…”

“Then it makes more sense. From Gulag’s point of view, an impious person coveted his favorite shaman.”

“··· ···”

Kara had an expression of confusion. It seemed like I couldn’t figure out how to look at the sky and myself.

How can you become a god and interfere with a shaman’s love affair? He is more than Hector.

No matter how much I cursed at the gods, I didn’t cause any direct harm.

On the contrary, I am the victim. Aren’t they forcibly bringing in people who are living well and making them suffer like hell?

‘One thing that is really narrow is…’

Kwagwagwang!!

Did he read my inner thoughts? Or maybe it’s because this is a temple.

A blue thunderbolt struck my head once again. A thrilling energy lingered throughout my body.

“Not once, but twice?! What happened…?”

“Shivar. Don’t say anything disrespectful to Gulag. It’s happened once or twice, but I’m sure you’ll be patient.”

The priest was shocked and Kara gently tried to dissuade me. I let out a sigh of relief.

When I exhaled, gray smoke came out of my mouth. The smell of burned flesh is a bonus.

I didn’t intend to cause an accident here either, so I think it would be best to just follow along.

“What do you mean, not once? Has something like this happened before?”

“Yes… But you definitely don’t hate me like that. It’s like beating an immature child with a rod? In fact, even Sivar can control lightning. Isn’t that right, Sivar?”

Kara is desperately defending me. I felt sorry that they were suffering for no reason because of me.

Perhaps it was thanks to his defense that even though Heynckes was suspicious, he did not chase him out. Instead, he said something serious.

“I understand. However, since I don’t like Mr. Sibar, I think I need to be careful.”

“Yes.”

“It’s unfair.”

I felt so unfair that those words just came out on their own. I just stated the facts.

Kara offered words of comfort when I felt discouraged. After all, there is only Kara.

Afterwards, she and Heynckes went to the top where the ancestral rites were taking place.

Perhaps because lightning struck just now, all eyes were on us.

I was feeling embarrassed for no reason and was about to take Kara’s hand.

Roaring··························

‘No. ‘f*ck.’

Is it not okay to hold hands? How much do you care about it?

It didn’t happen like this even at the academy. If she does this, Kara will hate her, but will she be able to handle it?

In the end, I gave up holding Kara’s hand and climbed to the top. I want to have some fun later.

“Now that I think about it, Mr. Sivar, you survived even after being hit by God Gulag. It may not be possible if you get hit once, but if you get hit more than twice, it is normal for your heart to stop.”

“Shivar is a bit…No, it’s because he’s very strong. Is it because he got hit by lightning so many times?”

“Hmm. Lightning is a pain that is difficult to get used to. You are an amazing person in many ways.”

When I was first struck by lightning, I thought I was going to die from the pain.

What was especially difficult was that the muscles atrophied and fell into a state of inability to act.

I had to struggle somehow to escape, otherwise I would definitely be hit by the next attack.

‘I guess I’ll be able to survive somehow thanks to regeneration.’

Otherwise, it would have cooked golden brown or turned to ash. Even in Soul World, lightning was one of the evil abilities.

There was no such thing as lightning resistance in the abilities, but it could be said that the body itself was getting used to it.

While I was thinking about something else for a moment, I was able to reach the top of the temple. Surprisingly, there were very few people and only the altar remained.

“This is a place that can only be reached if I give permission. This is where offerings are made during large-scale ancestral rites.”

“Can we come up?”

“Sister Kara is favored by Gulag, and Mr. Shivar is also receiving great attention, so it doesn’t matter. Do you have any tribute to offer?”

“Yes.”

Kara took out an item from her pocket. She looked like an ordinary dagger at first glance.

“It’s a dagger that has steadily collected the energy of thunder. This should be enough as an offering, right?”

“It’s enough.”

“Shivar. Let’s bow together too.”

I don’t really want to do it. But when Kara asked, she had no choice but to be dragged along.

Next, we stood in front of the altar and completed preparations for the ancestral rites step by step, just like we did at the academy.

First, Kara placed the offering on the altar and bowed to Gulag instead of greeting him.

Good luck!

As soon as we bowed, a fire broke out at the altar where offerings were made. Then, Heynckes could be heard admiring from behind.

It seems surprising that Gulag answered right away. It didn’t seem like it was supposed to be like this.

This probably means that she cares for Kara that much. I am the bastard who wants to steal her away.

“Kara.”

“Huh?”

“Are you going to dance?”

“No. I just wanted to say hello today. It’s not a good idea to give an offering, and I plan to do it properly later.”

You’re just saying hello. I feel like I prepared too roughly and I can’t forgive myself.

If you look at this side, you can see that, apart from his usual cool personality, he is meticulous. So, I guess the gulag gives a lot of affection.

‘But what about me?’

I am confident that if you care for me like Kara, I will do well, but why are you doing this?

······Of course, I had a history of giving away Kara during sparring, but that was unavoidable. Kara also coolly moved on from the past.

Maybe it’s because I’m a believer in Chaos. Gulag and Chaos couldn’t be said to be on good terms even with empty words.

‘This makes me feel like Gaia is alone.’

I have finished all the ancestral rites. Fortunately, there was no lightning or anything like that.

If I had failed, I would have been so angry that I would have screamed. No, I would have acted rather than shouted.

It doesn’t matter whether this is a temple or a nabal. I want to go to the gulag at least once.

“The ancestral rites are over. Shall we go down now?”

“Yes.”

“Excuse me, but may I ask what you asked for? I think this is the first time I’ve seen Gulag answer so quickly.”

Heynckes, who was watching from behind before going down, asked with curiosity in his voice.

Kara smiled awkwardly at that question and then looked at me. It’s the sword that makes her scratch her head.

“I just told you not to hate Sivar too much. Look at his face. Does he look like he’s going to do something bad?”

“The eyes are ominously bright red and look like a monster…”

“Uh… Sometimes he goes wild like a monster, but that’s really rare. He hasn’t done any harm to us at all.”

“Hmm…”

Heynckes looked at me with eyes full of suspicion. I can’t even reply because it’s true.

Then he nodded and laughed. Whenever I see him, his smile is as kind as Rod’s.

“Sister Kara seems to really like Mr. Sivar.”

“··· ···”

Kara didn’t say anything. She just blushed and pursed her lips.

Just by looking at the reaction, she was able to infer that it was a positive answer.

‘Look at this. You say you like it too, but why do you keep interrupting me…’

Kwagwagwang!!

Lightning struck my head again. Now I’m more dumbfounded than angry.

The warm atmosphere was all gone with a single strike of lightning. Everyone just looked at me with surprised eyes.

“······Shivar? What were you thinking?”

“······Kara.”

“Uh, huh?”

“Do you like me, Kara?”

Kara showed her shocked reaction for a moment before nodding her head.

Afterwards, I looked up at the sky and slowly moved my steps.

At first, everyone looked like they didn’t know what I was going to do. But everyone was taken aback by my next actions.

Kwaak!

“aaah! Shi, Shivar? What are you doing?”

Kara was very embarrassed. That’s because he approached her from behind and hugged her waist.

The so-called back hug. I’ve noticed it before, but the waist is really thin. Is it because I have a body that has been toned through exercise?

Furthermore, it had a strong feeling of being solid and not soft. A body where you can feel the muscles just by hugging it.

Anyway, everything went over, and I lifted Kara up, hugging her behind her. Directly towards the sky.

“Kara says she likes me! But she doesn’t like you?”

“What, what, what?!”

“Jjonsaengi Shin! Take a shot!”

He took Kara hostage and threatened her. Kara did not resist and was just quietly held by me.

Is it true that Gullak’s feelings of dislike for me are greater than his feelings of liking Kara? Then there will be lightning.

But if that happens, Kara will also be struck by lightning. She wanted to go down quietly, but she felt embarrassed and couldn’t do it.

“You can’t? You can’t? You can’t! Then allow it!”

“Well, what are you allowing?”

What is it? I’m asking for a formal relationship.

If not, I think I would get hit by her lightning every time I get the chance. I don’t know anything else, but lightning hurts me too.

Crumbling!!

The Gulag didn’t react at first, perhaps because it was embarrassed. But it wasn’t long before a reaction crept in.

A while ago, lightning struck the dry sky, but the sky became increasingly dark. In an instant, pitch black clouds began to gather.

Heynckes was greatly embarrassed when he saw the dark clouds. He then made an urgent request to me.

“Well, don’t insult Gulag any further! You could get into really big trouble!”

“It’s not an insult! I’m angry too!”

They are the ones who have dragged away people who are living well. But you can’t do anything about dating as well?

No matter how big of a person you are, you can’t help but feel angry. I, too, am protesting(?) In my own way.

I will most likely obey you, but I also ask you to listen to what I want. Otherwise, I’m going to make a fuss.

Even from the gods’ point of view, the future I know is not only precious, but a task that must be accomplished.

Even though Luna is there, it is difficult for her to handle it alone. This is the so-called declaration of sabotage.

“Give me Kara! Then I’ll listen carefully!”

“Ugh… I’m sorry, Mr. Gulag…”

Kara covered her face with both hands at my confident declaration. It seems quite embarrassing.

However, instead of denying it, he is obediently being held by me. This is not to say that there is no heart at all.

I have not received a confirmation yet. Dark clouds have gathered, so there will definitely be an answer.

If you don’t do it, you’ve given permission to do it. Since ancient times, silence has replaced positivity.

Crumbling!!

Thunderclouds gradually gathered in, and the thunder also slowly began to grow.

I held on to Kara without any fear. I corrected her posture because she might feel uncomfortable at times.

Kwagwagwang!!!

At that moment, a huge beam of light struck like a thunderbolt. The thickness of a lightning bolt is so large that it is almost like a pillar of light.

The lightning struck straight at the altar, but strangely enough, it seemed like it was not a single shot but a pillar of light that came straight down.

So I turned and looked toward the altar. Of course, he was holding Kara.

Tsutsutsu-

Soon, the pillar of light slowly disappeared. Despite the power of the lightning, the altar remained intact.

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

But not above that. Because someone appeared on the altar.

Even from a distance, you could see that it was almost the size of a bear. I don’t know how big his physique is.

What about the clothes? It looks like it is wearing light leather armor reminiscent of Northern Europe and a fur cape.

“Ah. That’s really true.”

The man who appeared out of nowhere reacted bluntly, rubbing his nose.

Hair that looks like it has been roughly grown, but is subtly well maintained. Appearance with a full beard tied up like a Viking.

Along with the blonde hair mixed with a bit of brown, the most striking thing is definitely the eyes.

“Why are you sending me to harass my child?”

The man’s eyes were a vivid ‘dark blue’ color.
