The Artificial God
Meetings



Right now we are gathering somewhere, we are borrowing the unused room in this tavern to the tavern owner. But before that we had to complete our duties in exchange for a free stay at his inn. Because today we have entered work again after being given three days off.


"About the seven knights, I think they are all mythological creatures of different types left" said Tygruth, who immediately discussed the main topic for the meeting. This meeting was aimed at destroying the kingdom from within. Because the world is still in danger of being caused by brutality, and the cruelty of this kingdom to all beings outside of its kingdom.


They destroyed everything they wanted without his mercy.before we got here, after five years of encountering a supposedly human creature that came from the past. We keep looking for the peak of the problem that makes this world not peaceful. We have always found terrible traces of destruction on every one of our trips.


Sometimes there are few people alive, or just one not even a single one alive every time we come across a ruined city, village, or kingdom. The people always said that it was the kingdom of Gygash that caused all the destruction, and the suffering. We prepared all the information about the kingdom for five years before arriving here, until finally we already have a lot of information about the kingdom, and can be discussed at this meeting.


"Dude!? sure enough, you started the core topic as soon as we got here?" I said who was eating the snacks I brought before going to this meeting room.


"Based on this son of a bitch, you're the one who made us all like this" Tygruth said with a sigh, and held back his resentment towards me.


"Hehe, but... Why is Yuki also attending this important meeting? we still can't trust this child completely. Even though she was a child, and looked innocent, she used to commit crimes to know" said I who felt bad if Yuki joined this important meeting.


"It's okay, I'll guarantee that Yuki won't do that" Tygruth said calmly, believing in Yuki.


"Hey come on, do you believe in Yuki too?" I said to Boa Boa, and Elysna.


"Of course, she is no longer the Yuki you used to be, the one you first met" Elysna said with a sour face to me.


"True, I could feel his goodness, and there was no more evil in his heart. But somehow I felt something awkward about her " Boa Boa said as she stroked Yuki's hair like a mother's affection for her child.


"Just let me say, it's possible that the awkwardness is something that will make a mess of our plans in the future" I said as I stood up, and pointed my finger at Boa Boa, to convince those who trust Yuki.


"Stop Gernath! don't waste our precious time on such excuses" Tygruth said seriously, and I was forced to go along with them. Although this meeting feels really annoying because they prefer Yuki over me who has been with you for a long time. Damn you guys!.


"So, how can you be sure that the seven knights are Greek mythological creatures from different nations?" said Elysna who disputed Tygruth's estimate.


"Did I say seven? I'm sorry, I mean six.." said Tygruth, who then cut off the conversation by yelling at him, "What do you mean! you said seven, and now six? don't talk about things that don't mpph.. mmmpp" I said, then Tygruth stuffed my mouth with a piece of cloth.


"Well, where were we?"


"Until now, how do you know that the seven, ah I mean the six great knights are mythological creatures?" boa Boa said.


"That's because I can sense the air of their existence that is different from ordinary beings like us. Eve their strength felt very foreign, and pierced. Except for one of them, that is, from the Leonists" said Tygruth, who surprised everyone.


"What's!? Leonis? if the others I can trust you with that. But how can a Leonist be a great knight?" Elysna.


"I don't know about it either. Judging from his skin, it seems like he's older than us by our twenties. And again don't you see that one of them has ears like me, and that stupid boy screaming" said Tygruth, who thoroughly checked everything before telling the story.


"I did not examine them too much, because of the powerful presence of the king. It is true that I feel a little strange to the knights when compared to other creatures" said Elysna who took this matter seriously.


"Then the king that we have been thinking about is not the legend of a creature of Greek mythology slaughtered his neighbor. The Greek mythological serial killer, whose name, form, race is still unknown. There is little information about him, such as for example, only he is a race that is created alone" said Tygruth.


Because all this time we have always suspected that the king of the kingdom of Gygash is a creature of Greek mythology that is cruel. Because according to information from the destruction of a village, or a kingdom that we gathered for five years before arriving here. Said that there was only one person who destroyed one region with his great power.


And we immediately thought that the figure who had crazy strength was only focused on one person. That mysterious mythological creature, "So you mean.." said Elysna who had not finished his speech.


"True, their king is not a nation of mythological creatures" said Tygruth who again surprised everyone, and amazed by his sharp and promising analysis.


"You're right Boa Boa, and again there's no news that someone from the ordinary class of beings like us can defeat mythological creatures, one on one" Tygruth said confidently.


"There is. That man is... Gordials" said Boa Boa who shocked Tygruth, and others.


"What's!? how did you know about that?" tygruth.


"I know because our ancestors of the angels always told the story of the battle of the Sorneas, and the Gordials of the past. Those were the times of our greatest war between the demon races, and the angels who were always at odds to show who was the strongest. There is a story that tells that Gordials defeated mythological creatures from the Phoenix nation.


At that time, the Gordials were weaker than the Sorneans. But ever since he defeated someone from the Phoenix nation, and seized his power. Now Gordials became superior in his last fight" said Boa Boa.


"But is it not according to the story that what caused Gordials to die was that they were killed by Sornea?" Elysna.


"That's right, because angels have the natural power to curse anyone who kills them. So it can be said they killed each other, and won" Boa Boa said.


"Isn't it a series then?" tygruth.


"Right, after all how could a Gordials die by just killing one angel? isn't he anti with your natural curse the angels?" Elysna.


"That's true, but it's just an exaggerated remark. Actually the curse keeps piling up on Gordials' bodies. The stronger the opponent he kills, the stronger the curse will be, and by then Gordials have reached the threshold of the curse" Boa Boa said.


"But why did Sornea not kill any mythological creature, to seize its power, and become stronger. Since the Sornea is stronger than the previous Gordials, it doesn't mean that it will be easier for the Sornea to kill mythological creatures" Tygruth said.


"It must not be done to the angels, we are holy beings who will not cause chaos. We will only attack creatures that mess up first" Boa Boa said.


"I got permission to go to the toilet" said Yuki who suddenly left the meeting room on the grounds of going to the toilet to urinate.


"Then about the king who leads the mythological creatures." said Elysna.


"Let me tell you one more thing. If this place is the desert of death it used to be " said Tygruth who again for the third time made them surprised.


"W-what!? so this place is that horrible place? which items anyone who goes to that place will disappear, which is suspected as the residence of a mysterious mythological creature that slaughtered his golong? what does that mean..."


"You are right, according to me. the legendary mythological creature has been defeated by him, and he built his kingdom here as a form of power that managed to defeat the legendary mythological creature. That way he can easily make other mythological creatures into his subordinates" said Tygruth who makes the atmosphere of this room very surprising. With his theories are crazy, but if concluded, and become one, the theory of Tygruth is the most appropriate about the story of this kingdom.


"That is absolutely impossible.. A person of the ordinary class of beings could do such a thing!? even the Gordials were close to death when they defeated the Phoenix according to the stories of my ancestors" said Boa Boa who seemed to not believe it.


"But somehow the thought, and the conclusion that Tygruth said, is near certainty. Then also about the story of one man who destroyed one kingdom or village with that terrible, if the king of this kingdom who is from the class of ordinary beings is the one who does that.


"I felt a very thick, black air from the king as he got off his chariot. It was as if the world I saw was full of blood, the blood of the people he had killed all along" Tygruth said.


"Hey hey hey.. doesn't that feel impossible to us?" Elysna.


"You're right, our opponent is a mythological creature, and a king who has power beyond limits" Tygruth said. In the meantime I could just sit quietly while tied up in a chair, and my mouth was covered with a very smelly cloth. I can't bear to breathe the stench of this cloth, it looks like I'll faint if I continue to breathe the foul air of this cloth.


The three of them looked very cool, and serious when talking about this meeting. But why am I the only one who did not come, and instead became like this. Goddamnit! just because of what I said at that time, I became lucky like this. It should be better for me to choose to be quiet, rather than be silent in this situation.
