The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Episode 330

The place where Leviathan took me was a place covered on all sides with a translucent film.

The raw material in the sea was clearly exposed, as if it were in the middle of an aquarium.

It’s like a dragon palace that you only see in fairy tales.

[This is the space I live in.]

“So you want to have a conversation here?”

[No, I have to guide you from now on.]

But Leviathan was not moving and was writhing around.

What are we going to do?

Paaaat!

When I had a question, a figure appeared in front of me with a brilliant light. When the light disappeared, what was there was a woman with beautiful beauty.

Like Hyuna, she knows how to transform. Just by looking at the outside, it was impossible to tell the difference between a divine beast and a monster.

Leviathan, who transformed into a white man with blonde hair and white skin, looked similar to Anna Christine.

The clothes were similar to those from ancient Greece, but were more revealing.

“I will guide you.”

I followed Leviathan, who was leading the way.

At the center of the space I named Yonggung was a small palace. The wonder of a new world under the sea unfolded before me.

How on earth did they build a palace in the sea?

The question continued even after entering the palace. Ancient works of art were lavishly decorated throughout the palace.

“sit down.”

Leviathan sat down in his seat and handed me a cup made of antique porcelain. The content inside was just plain water.

Being here made me feel like I had transported to the distant past.

I didn’t feel the need to talk at length, so I got straight to the point.

“So, I want to hear why you sent Yongyong and invited me.”

“You call that divine beast Yongyong? That sounds cute. “There is no way the noble God would allow that to happen.”

“What is the answer to my question?”

“I guess this means nothing. “It was put together with a lot of care.”

She crossed her legs that were fully exposed up to her thighs and curled up the corner of her mouth.

It was a sight that would make any man’s heart flutter, but to me, it was nothing more than a sea serpent in human skin.

“Were you planning on seducing me?”

“I heard that visual direction is important for humans. I guess it was my mistake. “I thought it was decorated quite attractively.”

“Okay, let’s get to the point. “Why did you invite me?”

“He’s a straight man. Okay, I’ll tell you.”

Leviathan, who snorted, nodded his head softly.

“You may have heard me talk about Shinsoo, who I hang out with. First of all, that story is all lies.”

I wonder if they did that because they thought I was talking about something.

“And you’re a monster?”

“It is true that I am a monster.”

“Then you took the essence of the divine beast?”

“I was drunk at that too…”

“Then didn’t I say everything that was mostly correct?”

“I see? There are more things that are true than I thought. “Isn’t this what you’re talking about?”

It was clear that this guy was lacking something.

Looking at the way he nodded with a serious expression, he did not appear to be the ruler of the Atlantic Ocean who cut off the Americas and Africa.

If you think about it, it’s hard to see Yongyong as a divine beast just by looking at it from the outside.

Those guys who pride themselves on being transcendent beings have a screw missing somewhere.

“Tell me first what you want to claim is false.”

“First of all, it is true that I am a monster, and it is true that I have taken the essence of a divine beast. And everything except that is a lie.”

As if he had a lot to say, Leviathan began to tell me about his injustice.

To put it simply, the monster called Leviathan is not as vicious as it is made out to be in the world.

Leviathan’s claim was that the Atlantic Ocean was his territory and that he had only exercised his right of self-defense to protect his territory and that he had never actually caused any damage anywhere else.

Now that I think about it, it appeared when it completely invaded the Atlantic Ocean. I didn’t touch it when transiting anywhere other than that place.

As a result, the route became several times longer, but he claims that it was not his fault.

“So the conclusion is that I am good?”

“No, I wanted to say that a frame exists. The divine beasts say that monsters are evil and must be destroyed.”

Yongyong could sense subtle hostility in the nuance.

“What is the reason?”

“Because I can jeopardize the position of the Divine Beast.”

What Leviathan said was simple. Since he has reached a level where he can pose a threat to Shinsoo, he is looking for every opportunity to eliminate him.

The reason he didn’t leave the Atlantic Ocean during this time was to avoid being noticed by Shinsu.

“But then you showed up. A human who even hunts down divine beasts with a human body.”

Leviathan firmly said that I was being deceived by Shinsu.

Am I being deceived by Shinsu?

“You are acting as Shinsoo’s hound. “Do you think I’m wrong?”

“well.”

Everything I have hunted so far has been a result of my own will. There was encouragement from Yongyong next to me, but the decision was ultimately mine.

Even though his guess was wrong, Leviathan smiled after hearing my answer.

“So if you act according to your will, you can change your plan to hunt me down?”

“Is there really a reason to do that?”

“there is.”

“say it.”

“If this continues, both you and I will have no choice but to be dealt with by the hands of Shinsu.”

The story was that for that to happen, it was necessary to join hands with himself, not with Shinsu.

I think I’m getting enough recognition from Yongyong and Hyuna.

Leviathan shook his head resolutely at my words.

“Shinsu pursues purity. If a being other than a divine beast has power, it is nothing more than an object of purification to them. Why do you think they retrieve the essence of neglected divine beasts and destroy them? That’s because I don’t want impure beings to rise to the same level. You are the hound most needed by the divine beasts. “With your strength, you can eliminate them without doing too much.”

“How do you know that?”

“Because I was your role in the past. Do you think the reason I settled here was because I accidentally discovered the essence of a divine beast? no.”

Leviathan twisted his mouth. The emotion contained therein was deep ridicule.

“I caught the spirit who was trying to eliminate me here. And I took that power.”

“….”

“That’s why the divine beasts just watch without being able to touch it. Because Shinsoo is a pure being, he values himself. You cannot risk your own extinction. So, you are the one who chose me as the new hound to get rid of me.”

Leviathan’s words definitely exceeded expectations.

Well, both Korea and the United States are thoroughly analyzing my tendencies and responding accordingly, so what law would prevent a Shinsu who has lived for eons from doing so?

I felt like things I had been vaguely thinking about were becoming brighter with Leviathan’s explanation.

So, if Leviathan was the first hunting dog, that means I am the second hunting dog. It probably means that the same hunting dogs should get along well.

“that’s right. “Our cooperation can ensure our safety to a greater extent than it already does.”

Yes, this must be Leviathan’s purpose. This is probably why he tried to push Yongyong away to see me.

But I don’t feel a sense of crisis like he does?

Rather, he even knows Shinsoo’s fatal weakness.

“Nope.”

“what?”

“Isn’t it possible to say that what you said just now was something you made up because you wanted to live? But why should I believe it?”

“You saw it correctly. That’s right, I’m saying this because I want to live now. So everything I say is the truth. “What’s wrong with that?”

“….”

“And do you think I’m doing this because I want to live alone? I’m talking about this because this is the way you live too. Why can’t you understand me right away when I talk to you? So, I’m in a situation where I’m being taken advantage of by these cunning Shinsu guys. … ah! Of course, I meant that I wanted to hold hands with you. “You won’t misunderstand, right?”

“I understood correctly.”

“You seem angry.”

“Not really.”

“do not be angry. “It’s the same hunting dog.”

It’s really over now.

“….”

Silence fell between me and Leviathan.

* * *

At first, I planned to use my hand without hesitation, but the conversation with Leviathan brought me some information.

That he is not a one-sided perpetrator and that the gods pursue their own purity.

Only then did I understand why Yongyong wanted to meet the self-proclaimed god. The guy probably wanted to check. Is the self-proclaimed god a monster gaining power and pretending to be a god, or is a divine beast claiming to be a god in some other form? When I thought about it that way, the whole series of actions made sense.

“In the end, we are going to hold hands to survive.”

“of course. “Isn’t it natural for all living things to want to continue living?”

“Then beg for it.”

If it were a monster that could even capture a divine beast, its pride would be high. I thought I could reveal his well-disguised personality.

Leviathan was a stronger enemy than I thought.

“Please save me. I don’t want to die like this. “I’ve been holding up well while avoiding the eyes of the divine beasts, but if I get injured while fighting you, I’m not going to miss this opportunity.”

“….”

I felt like I was caught off guard by his cold appearance while lowering his head.

I never thought he would be a guy who would put down his pride in order to live.

“Should I at least grab the crotch of my pants?”

“done.”

It was my mistake to think that he was a person with noble pride.

And among what Leviathan said, there were parts to ponder over.

“What do you mean?”

“But I don’t completely believe what you say. “I will go back and go through my own verification process.”

“If what I say is false, you can come and kill me. “I’ve never lied.”

“Instead, I have to fulfill the one purpose I came here for.”

“What?”

“Open the sea road.”

For the party, the presence or absence of Leviathan is not important. More important than that was securing a route connecting North America and Europe.

“That’s possible. I became sensitive and didn’t let anyone access my area. “This is what a strong ally wants, and I can tolerate even the slightest inconvenience.”

“When did you become allies?”

“Right now at this moment.”

The guy is grinning shamelessly.

What is clear is that it is not normal.

“Transcendent beings who do not possess the purity of a divine beast have no choice but to rely on each other. Even if we become friends with Shinsu, he doesn’t understand us.”

So the only one who can understand me is myself. That’s a lot of confidence.

In the first place, I don’t really need anyone’s understanding. If he is not treated as a villain in society, he will achieve his goal.

“So let’s become friends.”

“I don’t need your understanding.”

“…We can understand each other better, but you say it with regret.”

“If you’re dissatisfied, why not attack me?”

“I respect each person’s decision. “Would you like to bring me a gift while I’m here?”

The change in attitude is beyond imagination.

By the way, I said this while looking around at the surrounding scenery that had piqued my curiosity earlier.

“Did you make this yourself?”

“No, I restored something that sank in the sea to its original state. Cool, right? “I brought the one I like the most out of many.”

“Sink in the sea?”

“It seems like the civilization you said was lost? “Maybe if I take something from here, I’ll hit the jackpot?”

“….”

It was Leviathan who spoke with a bright face and said something that would turn the archaeological world upside down.

* * *

I didn’t say anything, but I received various gifts from Leviathan and was able to leave the area.

It turned out that he was quite deeply immersed in human culture.

There was a strange goal of equipping one’s territory with the facilities to enjoy human civilization at any time.

[I’m here? [Did you resolve the matter well?] When

I arrived near Florida by Leviathan, I came face to face with Yongyong, who came to me like a ghost.

So, these guys called Shinsu have such dark thoughts, right?

[what’s the matter? What happened?]

But no matter how I looked at it, I couldn’t believe that that stupid face could have planned something like that.

It’s hard to even think that that guy is the subject of a conspiracy.

[Are you going to just keep staring at me without saying anything?]

“I have my own circumstances. “First of all, Leviathan was not dealt with.”

[know. If we were stuck, there would be no way we would be quiet like that.]

“Then let’s talk. Let’s change seats.”

[okay.]
