The Divine Twilight's Return-Chapter 450: Star, Jotunheim (10)
Chapter 450: Star, Jotunheim (10)
[There are currently no Frost Giants left in <Jotunheim>. Mediums are required to revive them.]
[Will you select mediums?]
Since all Frost Giants had lost their Divine Classes and turned into Yetis, they were essentially dead, remaining as nothing but memories within the ‘Iron Forest.’ In other words, they had returned to their elemental spirit forms, the Giants’ original form.
If Chang-Sun put a little more effort, he could restore the Frost Giants to their Giant forms. However, considering the emergency Chang-Sun and his subjects were in right now, it would take too long for them to regain their Divine Classes and be combat-ready. Fortunately, he had a solution.
‘Jin and the Changgwi Army,’ Chang-Sun thought as he watched Jin Prezia and his Draconic Knights fighting Ubbo-Sathla’s tentacle through his omniscient view of the Dungeon,
Chang-Sun knew very well how severe the internal conflict and slump that Jin was in, but he purposely turned a blind eye to it because he wanted Jin himself to bring up what was on his mind first.
The feeling of inferiority to the people around him, the desire to become stronger, the urge to win, the frustration... Having once gone through a similar experience, Chang-Sun knew that the only way to overcome those obstacles was to change on his own. That was why he let Jin grow lethargic and become so fascinated with Odin that he started heavily relying on him.
Having discovered that Jin had broken out of his shell, Chang-Sun decided to give him a small reward. It was only proper for him to help his loyal subordinate, after all.
[You have selected mediums.]
[Reviving the Frost Giants!]
* * *
Amid their battle against Ubbo-Sathla, Jin noticed a change inside him. ‘What in the world...?’
Badump, badump, badump!
Jin wasn’t sure what abnormal phenomenon was happening right now, but his heart was racing. He was a Changgwi, a Dread Undead with a Divine Class. How was his heart beating? It was so loud that he could vividly hear it.
‘I’m... resonating,’ Jin concluded, realizing that his heart was beating in the same rhythm as the Dungeon’s tremors.
His heartbeat and the Dungeon’s tremors were probably in sync with Chang-Sun’s heartbeats as well.
Badump!
Thud!
Badump, badump!
Thud, thud!
Badump, badump, badump!
Thud, thud, thud...!
Jin’s inactive veins began to awaken like frozen ground defrosting, his cells sprang to life like sprouts, and his blood began to circulate like melted snow turning into rivers.
He was coming back to life.
Right after spring came to this Dungeon and drove away its perpetual winter, Jin, an Undead, regained his vital force.
“Ahh... Ahhhh!” Jin unknowingly exclaimed in indescribable bliss. He never thought that he would be able to speak in his actual voice again.
His once pale cheeks turned rosy. He could feel the sword in his hands and smell the flowers around him. His sight, hearing, taste... his five senses had not only returned but even created another, uncontrollably expanding his range of perception. Having gained a sixth sense, newfound delight rushed over him.
[Congratulations! You have been fully revived!]
[A new Myth has been added to your original Myths.]
[Your understanding of ice attribute has increased.]
[You have acquired the Class ‘Frost Giant.’]
Letting out a visibly white breath, Jin realized that he had reached a new level. He had become a Frost Giant—a warrior of <Jotunheim>. His master over his original Skills and Authorities had advanced as well, making him feel as if he could use them a lot more efficiently now.
The impulse to use his power boiled inside him.
Turning back, he saw his Draconic Knights’ happy faces. They, too, had been trapped in the Changgwi Cave, unable to die or live. The bliss of gaining new life must have been remarkable for them as well.
“Our master—our king and god—has given us a new opportunity!” Jin told his subordinates. They solemnly tightened the grips on their reins. “Let us bring his glory to this land, <Jotunheim> warriors!”
“Yes, sir!”
“Yes, sir!”
With energetic answers, the Draconic Knights—the new warriors of <Jotunheim>—charged toward the tentacle.
[The Society <Jotunheim> has been brought back from <Extinction>.]
[The fighting spirit of the Society <Jotunheim> dominates the battlefield!]
* * *
Jin wasn’t the only one whose heart was resonating.
Badump, badump, badump―!
Sinmara’s heart also frantically raced. Her blood boiled, and the steam she had released danced, turning into a fiercely blazing flame.
「Keough...!」
Sinmara feared that she would pop like a balloon at this rate.
The amount of her mana had increased so much that she began to shake uncontrollably. It made her feel as if she would break down at any moment.
「Chief!」
「Lady Sinmara!」
「Are you okay?」
Surprised, the Fire Giants tried to approach her. However, Sinmara quickly held up her hand to stop them, noticing that it would be dangerous if her fire engulfed them.
「Don’t come near me!」she shouted.
‘Damn you, Master! You could have given me a heads-up!’
Sinmara wanted to snap at Chang-Sun right now, but she didn’t have the time. She couldn’t waste this opportunity! After all, this was her only chance to regain her Future-Seeing Face!
[The Subordinate ‘Sinmara’ is ascending!]
Craaaack!
The transformation broke Sinmara’s bones into pieces and tore apart her skin. Afterward, she grew several times bigger, her muscles becoming even larger than before. Her missing head then appeared, filling the unoccupied space beside her middle head.
She opened her eyes wide.
Paah!
[The Subordinate ‘Sinmara’ has returned to her true form!] fre ewebn ovel
[The Society <Muspelheim> hass successfully regained their past glory, succeeding in the full resurrection of Fire Giants.]
“I am Sinmara!”
“Shaman and chief warrior...”
“... of <Muspelheim>!”
Sinmara’s three faces spoke simultaneously. Having been completely revived, she could finally use her actual voice again.
“I will now predict...”
“... the future of King Bestla’s descendant...”
“... our king Lee Chang-Sun!”
Past, present, future. Three pillars of time circled Sinmara. She could now see the numerous timelines that had been completely hidden from her. They repeatedly appeared and disappeared as countless incidents and events recorded in the law of causality flashed before her eyes.
Roaaaaar!
The other Fire Giants let out vigorous roars to the sky as they, too, underwent transformations. Engulfed in far bigger and more brilliant flames, they rejoiced.
The Fire Giants had regained their prime.
“Get it together, you rascals! Are you going to let those cheeky <Jotunheim> Giants take all the credit?”
“Absolutely not!”
“Then focus on cutting down that damn tentacle!”
“Alright!”
“Let’s go!”
Thud, thud, thud.
Badump, badump, badump.
The Fire Giants charged head-on, their footsteps, heartbeats, and tremors syncing up as if they were just a single being. For the first time, they had stopped the tentacle from advancing.
How. Dare.
Ubbo-Sathla grew angry. Not only was the dimension teleportation gate not opening up properly, but these infuriating vermins kept scratching them and getting on their nerves.
[The <Muspelheim> Giants let out battle cries as they try to stop the unknown being!]
[The <Jotunheim> warriors are attempting to close the interdimensional gate!]
[The <Valhalla> siblings are protecting ‘Bestla’s Temple’!]
...
Crush. All. Strike. All.
Ubbo-Sathla swung their tentacle around as if swatting away flies, catapulting all the Giants and warriors away.
Craaaack―!
At the same time, they forced their other tentacles through the gate, causing the gate to crack and break.
Boooom!
Two more of Ubbo-Sathla’s tentacles managed to squeeze through.
Kali took a deep breath and waved her hands in the air. “Hup!”
The shadow of her hand multiplied and merged, forming an enormous wall.
[The Celestial ‘Goddess of Massacre and Destruction’ has activated the Authority ‘Thousand-Hand Wall’!]
Booooom!
Ubbo-Sathla’s tentacles flew like arrows toward the ‘Lonely Fortress’ until Kali’s [Thousand-Hand Wall] blocked and redirected them upward. Unable to nullify the impact, Kali herself was pushed quite a distance away, but Baek Gyeo-Ul showed up and supported her.
“Gyeo-Ul...!” Kali murmured in surprise.
“Let me help you!”
Kali nodded, putting her trust on Gyeo-Ul. She knew he would be a reliable partner in this fight. When their shadows connected, Xerxes used his Authority to help them synchronize with Kali’s divine power, making the [Thousand-Hand Wall] a lot thicker.
Zinnnnnng!
As the [Thousand-Hand Wall] expanded and turned into a barrier that enveloped the entire ‘Lonely Fortress,’ another being connected to Xerxes’ shadow.
Crom Cruach smiled. “Well, I can’t just sit still while my younger siblings are hard at work.”
[The Celestial ‘Thousand-Year Slumbering Dragon’ has activated the Authority ‘Trance’!]
Tap! freew(e)bnovel.(c)om
Upon closing the magic book she was reading, Crom dissipated and harmonized with Xerxes’ shadow, spreading it all over the Dungeon. As if pouring a bucket of black ink on white paper, the shadow completely covered the Dungeon in darkness. Countless flaming lightning bolts dropped from the sky and struck the tentacles, causing the world to quake.
Crom’s specialty was materializing her dream. She could do it in reverse as well, trapping her opponent in her dream instead. Choosing to do the latter, she began trying to trap Ubbo-Sathla in this place.
Boom! Boom! Boooom!
Woosh, swoosh, swish―!
Rummmble―!
Vermins.
Annoyed beyond control, Ubbo-Sathla no longer held back their rage. They pushed more of their tentacles into the Dungeon, completely destroying the teleportation gate in the process. They then put their entire focus on going after the ‘Lonely Fortress,’ choosing to ignore the vermins that kept getting in their way,
Woooooosh!
Ubbo-Sathla’s divine power flooded into the Dungeon like a tsunami made to take out all of Chang-Sun’s subordinates. The sight made Kali and Gyeo-Ul clench their teeth.
Rummmmmmble―!
A long spatial gap appeared in the dark sky before the Outer Celestial’s divine power could injure them. Vehement lightning bolts and rainstorms descended from it, shredding two of the tentacles.
Spuuuurt!
Ubbo-Sathla’s blood and pieces of her tentacle rained on the ground. For the first time, someone had dealt a serious wound on the Outer Celestial.
The formidable power surprised everyone but Kali, who had already noticed the presence of who it belonged to before the person had even helped them.
Oooooong.
As Ubbo-Sathla’s fury shook the entire Dungeon, a man slowly crossed the spatial gap.
『Ha! What a mess.』
Woosh, swish, woosh!
With him appeared a gigantic sky city, suppressing the trembling sky.
『I hate noises. I’ll put and end to this commotion first.』
The sky city shone radiantly in gold. Lightning bolts and rainstorms surrounded it.
[The Divine Ground ‘Babylonia’ has appeared!]
Bel-Marduk had arrived.
