222

Ep. After clearing 222

Space Survival, I woke up in the hospital.

My parents, who separated after I became an adult, hugged me and cried. They held me tightly and constantly muttered that they were glad I was alive.

It may be natural to some, but it was unfamiliar to me. Ever since I was in the hospital, my parents always blamed each other.

But was I also hoping for a harmonious family? For some reason, tears came to my eyes and I cried with my parents.

After that, my parents barely spoke to me.

Let's start again.

Although legally we are already strangers, it would be nice to slowly restore our relationship.

Looking at that, I noticed something I didn't want to know.

That I am dreaming right now.

My parents love me, but their relationship has never been good. Even if I died, there was no way we could be reunited again.

The moment I realized it was a dream.

I woke up above the swamp.

'How long did you sleep?'

I checked the lower body and tail. The tail, covered in mucus, was intact without a single wound. Even the tongs that were completely lost were properly recovered.

Perhaps because I glimpsed reality through a dream, I suddenly thought that it would be nice if I had this kind of resilience even when I was human. If that were the case, my parents wouldn't have divorced and I wouldn't have had to live a lonely life at home without anyone close to me.

'…a useless thought.'

I don't know why something from the past suddenly appeared in my dream even though it wasn't the time to evolve. Thanks to you, my mood was ruined.

I shook my head, shaking away the negative thoughts along with the phlegm. The waves on the surface of the swamp created by me were blocked by the object in front of me.

It was the White Gallagon Ham Ort, lying down with symbiotic spores attached to it.

Compared to when I came into the nest, it was a lot better, but not to the point where I could say it was okay. The broken leg and torn tail were recovered, but the wings were not even halfway regenerated.

The horn on its head was broken. I had to wait a little longer, but I couldn't rule out the possibility that I would never recover.

After checking Ham Ort's condition, I got up. The first thing I saw when I came out of the nest was a bright pink, very large jellyfish.

It was size 26, with the body inflated to its maximum extent. The heads of gallagons with blue scales could be seen between the pink tentacles. As with the cruiser, it was carrying a lot of Blue Gallagons that were weak to the cold.

｢Big baby, doesn't it hurt?｣

[Zuzuzu zuzuzu (Yes. It's okay now)] When

the guy saw me, he lifted one of his tentacles and waved it gently.

As I looked around, I saw several pits that I had not seen before I fell asleep. The top of the hole was covered with tree branches.

'I guess he was hiding here.'

As the cruiser left, the Green Gallagon and Blue Gallagon must have dug a hole. We knew right away because we maintained our body temperature in a similar way after our fight with Jason.

Currently, the pit contains the corpses of other creatures instead of the Green Gallagon.

"The middle child caught it. "Even older babies eat when they're hungry."

The recovery of the body and the feeling of hunger in the stomach were separate issues. I gladly followed his recommendation and pulled out a corpse from the pit.

It was a snow banshee with its entire body grotesquely twisted and its tongue pulled out. Looking at the coldness in my hands, it seemed like some time had passed since I had died.

He's eaten it a few times before. It tasted like a mixture of beef jerky and dried squid.

I put the meat in my hand into my mouth and chewed it. Perhaps because it was close to the original snack taste, it was still okay even when it cooled down.

I asked No. 26 while chewing on a cold Snow Banshee.

[Zuzu zuzuzu (what about the other kids?)]

｢Plapplap The kids went hunting. The middle baby has something to say to the little baby and the big flutter." The

'big flutter' he's talking about is Nell Germa.

Number 26 spoke in waves and pulled out a tentacle and pointed into the forest.

"We went there together."

[Zuzuzu (thank you)]

After killing a corpse in an instant, I crawled in the direction he pointed.

I see a forest where only black and white exist, like a chessboard. Ground covered with shallow snow and black trees growing on it. Light seeps in faintly between the densely tangled branches.

As I passed through the dull forest, I felt the movement of three creatures of different sizes.

And the smell of blood.

The scent of blood lying low on the forest floor was quite familiar. It was White Gallagon's blood.

'Adhai ate Gallagon's body.'

As if it had recognized me from over there, a small creature came towards me. Soon, the Mother of Heaven appeared between the trees in the form of a wendigo.

"I'm here? How are you feeling?」

[Zuzzuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzu (Very good. Thanks to you, I filled my stomach)]

「I'm glad I caught a lot because I didn't know when he would wake up.」

[Zuzzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu (How did you get Ham Ort? Okay?)]

｢Oh, there's something I need to talk about first, that Aadhai

. '

She scratched her skull with her black fur-covered hands.

"It's hard to explain, but just see

it for yourself." She lifted her finger and gave me a signal to follow.

For a moment, I thought something was wrong, but looking at her appearance, it didn't seem like that. Her reaction was closer to the embarrassment you feel when you see something different from what you expected.

I followed her and came to a small clearing. Among the pieces of meat scattered on the floor was a white Gallagon Nell Germa. The guy looked at me and bowed his head slightly.

And behind him was Gallagon, who I couldn't see.

Is the length between 4m and 5m? It was slightly larger than the Mother of Heaven who had transformed into a griffon.

A long body reminiscent of a snake with six horns on its head and a bunch of tentacles hanging down from the mouth. They all looked like Gallagon, but there was one crucial difference.

Just wings. Little Gallagon had four wings, not two.

A gallagon's wings are located on its back close to its thorax. The Gallagon behind Nell Germa likewise had large wings on its back close to its front legs.

In addition, there are small wings attached near the connection between the hind legs and the tail.

There is only one Gallagon in the game with four wings.

Red Gallagon is the strongest of the Gallagons and a creature as powerful as Vortex One.

'But…'

Red Gallagon, as its name suggests, is a being with red scales. Red Gallagon's scales, which use a unique energy system called dragon power rather than psychic power, emit a mysterious luster like a red diamond.

But the color of Gallagon behind Nel Germa was not red.

No, to be precise, the red diamond color was limited to the wings and horns. Its horns and wings glowed bright red as if they had soaked up Gallagon's blood flowing on the floor.

However, except for the horns and wings, other parts were still as white as the snow piled up in the clearing.

A small wave of thought flowed from the red and white hybrid Gallagon.

｢An adult｣｢I｣｢I failed｣｢I'm sorry｣

After hearing Aadhai's apology as a half-grown person, I couldn't say anything.

Because you're disappointed? To be honest, it would be a lie to say that I don't have that feeling, but that's not the reason.

The real reason I'm confused is because I don't understand this situation.

'A half-grown Red Gallagon.'

There was no such thing in the game at all. There were no cases where it appeared as an event.

In the first place, Red Gallagon is a raid boss and a transcendent being that dominates all Gallagons. There cannot be a case where growth is intermediate.

Besides, if the transition from White to Red fails, wouldn't it be natural to become Black Gallagon? I didn't understand why Aadhai had the characteristics of White Gallagon and Red Gallagon mixed in half.

With my mind in confusion, I looked at him again. No matter how you look at it, the guy had four wings. It was droopy and hanging over the eyes, but it was unmistakable. Not only its wings but also its horns were blood-red.

Then I met his eyes. The boy's eyes, as beautiful as amethyst embedded in ice, were full of an uneasy light.

Having seen similar eyes a long time ago, I flinched for a moment.

When my parents fought, I hid in the closet. Every time, I encountered a mirror hanging on the closet door.

The look in his eyes now was very similar to the eyes of someone reflected in the mirror back then.

'…Let's calm down.'

I forced myself to calm down and sent a wave to him.

[Zuzuz Zuzuzu(What happened?)]

｢Me｣｢An adult's expectations｣｢Betrayed｣

[Zuzuz zu Zuzuzu Zuzu Zuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu (No. I have never seen you do anything to me. I never thought that my expectations were disappointed)]

It's true.

To No. 26 Aadhai Heavenly Mother PS-111.

I never once felt like I was disappointing the people who helped me and supported me. Everyone did better than I expected and filled in any areas I was lacking.

As if my feelings were conveyed, Aadhai looked a little more genuine. Since he seemed to be stable, I asked him again.

｢Corpse｣｢After Predation｣｢When Growing｣｢Bad Feeling｣｢

I Heard｣ [zuzuzu zuzu (bad mood?)]

｢Growth｣｢Completed｣｢Me｣｣Savior｣｢Change｣｢Savior｣｢Kong The only king of ｣｢Red Queen｣

[Zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu (Yes, when you grow up, you will become a red compatriot)]

At my words, Adhai shook his head and looked at me with sad eyes.

｢Then｣｢I｣｢No longer｣｢Big Adult｣｢Side｣｢I can't protect｣

[Z(What?)]

｢Red Queen｣｢People｣｢Prosperity｣｢I have to lead｣｢It｣｢Only Mission｣｢ "Big adult" "Little adult" "Friend" "Sick child" "Everyone break up"

When I heard those words, something suddenly occurred to me.

In terms of setting, Red Gallagon is similar to the King of Gallagon. A being who commands all Gallagon and reigns over them.

And a king cannot exist apart from his kingdom.

｢I｣｢I was worried｣｢My own people｣｢Ham Ort｣｣｢Hate｣｣｢But｣｣｢Dying｣｢I don't want to see｣｢So｣｢Me｣｢Savior｣｢Road｣｢I thought I would walk｣｢I thought｣

Quiet Adhai continued to pour out his thoughts as I listened intently.

｢I｣｢Chosen｣｢Savior｣｢Big Adult｣｢Both｣｢I will get it｣ [

zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzu (So did you give up on being a member of the red race?)]

In my words Adhai shot a thought wave of denial.

｢I｣｢Red Queen｣｢Mission｣｢Rejection｣｢Impossible｣｢just｣｢I reserved｣

[Zuzu (reservation?)]

｢I｣｢Red Queen｣｢Not yet｣｢Insufficient｣｢Big Adult｣｢ "Side" "There's a lot to learn" "There's a lot"

The guy came out from behind Nell Germa and approached me. And he bowed his head politely in front of me.

"I" "Big adult" "The group" "I belong" "Big adult" "Me" "Will you accept it?"

While I was sleeping, Aadhai made an important choice.

It was a decision made in a short period of time, but I didn't think he made it hastily. Even so, I couldn't disparage his decision.

He gave up his position as king and chose to remain by my side.

'Aadhai helps me.'

I don't know how much stronger he would have become, but at least he would have become superior to the regular White Gallagon. If you're lucky, you may be able to use Dragon Power, Red Gallagon's unique power.

He will be a useful combatant not only in the fight against Od Grad, but also when fighting other powerful enemies in the future.

'…but not only that.'

If I had planned on letting him leave in the first place, I wouldn't have come this far. Like No. 26, I will never hand it over to anyone else.

I approached him and stretched out my arms. I said while stroking the head of the guy who was flinching and shaking.

[Zuzuzuzu zuzuzu (You are always welcome)]

It is unclear whether he will be able to grow into Black Gallagon or Red Gallagon in the future. However, looking at the nuance of the expression reservation, it did not seem that growth was impossible.

So, even if you don't know about Red Gallagon, it may be possible to grow into Black Gallagon in the future. I don't know how to grow it though.

'Let's figure it out little by little.'

Aadhai takes on a new look.

I think it can be useful when fighting Od Grad. It doesn't matter even if he doesn't get stronger.

Red horns and wings.

The Gallagons will know better than me what that symbol means.

'If done well, it could cause internal strife.'

With that thought in mind, I continued stroking Adhai's head.
