Chapter 1761
“How did you notice my visit?”
The reason why Baal was flustered wasn’t due to the splendid emergence of the apostles.
Grid’s apostles—Baal had acknowledged from the start that all of them was a formidable existence. This wasn’t a reason to panic.
“I prepared thoroughly to deceive even the senses of an Absolute.”
Baal smiled as if he had regained his composure. An unfamiliar magic circle spread like a shadow below his feet. It followed his steps and functioned in conjunction with the hourglass rising above Baal’s shoulders.
Braham had been keeping his eyes on them from the beginning. ‘It is an artifact that obscures the user’s presence for a limited amount of time? It has been transformed by magic to maximize its function.’
Baal’s actions had always been unconventional. Everything he showed from the time he distorted hell to the present had been far from common sense. He was no different from a lunatic running wild with no countermeasures. However, that was just the superficial appearance. Braham had long realized that Baal was clever and thoroughly planned things. If he was really just a madman, how could he have deceived countless beings, including Yatan and Beriache?
“You can’t fool me with crude artifacts. Unlike my kind mother, I’m not pure and I am deeply suspicious.”
“Crude...? I don’t understand.” Baal cocked his head. It was because the artifacts he was using were made using the skills of the craftsman Pauld. It was possible because Baal was one who absorbed the powers of the dead. He was proud that the artifacts he created had a powerful performance that was rare in history, but he ended up being denied by Braham.
Braham raised his chin and laughed. “I can be sure of one thing now.”
It was clearly mockery.
“Baal, you are inevitably a being who is behind the times.”
The image of Baal reflected in Braham’s red eyes was the dirtiest and most unpleasant filth in the world. An object made of rotten meat that made him feel disgusted just by looking at it. There was a subtle restlessness.
“I am behind the times?”
“It is obvious. Your ability to gather the powers of the dead is nothing more than holding onto an era that has already ended.”
Those who used to be the mainstream in each field died. New people were bound to create a new mainstream. New eras started.
It was something that Baal would never experience.
“I… no, ‘we’.”
Braham—a person who only knew himself was actually discussing everyone present.
Grid’s apostles and the Overgeared members. The thing they had in common was that they opened a new era with Grid.
“There is no need to be afraid of you.”
“...Kukukuk! Kuhahahat! Braham! The son of Beriache! It is funny how a bastard who is worse than his mother, even after building up divinity, is so arrogant!”
