Praise the Orc! Chapter 225:

Chapter 225 – COSMOS (1)

People were watching the final battle in hope that those connected to Elder Lord would return safely .  Laney and Polaroid’s lives were also in danger in this fight . The battle they saw on the horizon was terrible .

Their breathing became rough when they were in danger . They felt stronger when Crockta and the war **** counterattacked .  Those watching the scene were able to sympathize with the emotions of the broadcasters .

Thus, the audience eagerly cheered for those fighting .

“Ah, please…”

“One more time, Crockta!”

“Crockta, fighting!”

Wherever a large screen was installed on a building, people stopped to watch the video . Crowds gathered everywhere .  The whole world stopped for this one fight .  There were cheers and gasps as Crockta and the war **** leapt into the air . The whole country shook with cheers as they pierced her body with the help of others .  But she was revived, and her mighty power pushed away the two warriors who stabbed her .

They felt despair .  The gap in power between the two parties was too great .  She wouldn’t die even when killed .  It was a stage designed for them to lose . Defeat was scheduled .

The crowds in the streets gasped .

“Ah…!”

“No…”

Crockta was thrown away and rolled in front of the screen .  He rolled across the ground a few times . His landing was such a huge impact that it wouldn’t be shocking if he died . Everyone thought this might be his last moment .

However, the fallen Crockta raised his body again .  He shook his body and raised his gaze .  The viewers weren’t expecting victory, but Crockta grabbed his greatsword like he wasn’t going to give up .

An indomitable will .  The intense emotions of the broadcasters were conveyed to the viewers .

Suddenly, Crockta found them .

–You .

His eyes widened .  Crockta met the eyes of the viewers .  His front appearance looked even worse .  The bloodied appearance of a hero .

Crockta gritted his teeth as he spoke .

–Why are you guys…

In the meantime, strong energy was emitted from the grey **** floating in the sky .  The power revolving around her turned everything into ashes .  The screen was covered with white .

Biiiiiik .

All noise was erased .  Nothing could be seen on the screen .  For a while, the white screen and strange tinnitus continued .  People realized that it was a landscape of destruction . In the midst of it, countless lives were dying . Crockta and the broadcasters were the same .

Some time passed .  When it stopped, they could see the face of the orc warrior on the screen .  Crockta had wrapped himself around them in order to save them .  Smoke rose from his body .

Everyone was at a loss .  Elder Lord was no longer a game . Death in Elder Lord would lead to death in reality, and he had saved the broadcasters .    Crockta had wrapped himself around the broadcasters to save them .

This was in real time .

“Uh…?”

Then one or two people noticed something .  It wasn’t only the viewers, but also the broadcasters .  His trademark was the greatsword and steel helmet .  That steel helmet was split apart and his face was fully revealed .  On top of his **** forehead was a white star .  

The broadcasters didn’t say anything for a moment as the world’s astonishment was mirrored on Laney’s face .

–It can’t be…

The spectators were thinking the same thing .  It couldn’t be .  The meaning of the white star, rattled the entire world .

Laney opened her mouth and she asked the question that everyone watching wanted to know .

–Crockta, you…

The ragged Crockta was on the screen .

–Are you a user?

Crockta .  He was a legend, the lone orc who always fought against oppression and injustice .  A warrior who considered honor as more important than his life .  Now, he was risking his life to fight against the grey god, except this time, the telltale mark of a user appeared on his forehead .

It was impossible .

Crockta smiled and said,

–Is that important?

–No, you, answer me .  Are you truly a user?

–There is no time to waste .

–Crockta!

Crockta turned around and headed back to the battlefield .  The grey **** was waiting as he walked back towards the pain and death .  He dragged his sword with him, leaving a blood trail as he gradually moved away .

Laney gazed at him and exclaimed,

–Please let me know your name! No, tell me your name if you really are a user! You could die here, so this is something we need to know!

Her voice was distraught .  Everyone was of the same mind .

–So that people can remember you .

Crockta paused at the tearful voice and slowly turned around .  The white sphere was counting down to the end of the world, while the grey **** shot her power of death .  Everything would be ruined .  The surviving gods and mortals screamed as they resisted the destiny of destruction .

That man, Crockta smiled and replied,

–We can talk about it later over a cup of coffee .

–You…!

There was no such thing as coffee in the world of Elder Lord .

The large man walked towards the battlefield where everything and everyone was at stake .  He walked alone without relying on anyone else .  He walked away with the promise of ‘next time’ .

 

***

The power of the grey **** swept over the whole area .  It was an overwhelming force, and it wouldn’t be strange if everyone died from it .  But a huge shield protected the defenseless .

“It is up to here for me…”

“Please stop her . ”

It was the goddess of magic and the **** of brilliance that stopped it .  They joined forces to spread open the Aegis Shield .  Their strength was already at the bottom, so blocking the grey god’s attack ended up destroying their divinity .  The price they paid for it was unknown . Their main vessel might be broken or destroyed, or they might sleep for thousands of years . However, they chose to do this .

“Please protect this world . ”

Their bodies blurred and they returned to Olympus .  It was the departure of the goddess of magic and the **** of brilliance .

“How touching,” muttered the grey **** as she witnessed this scene unfold .  It was touching, but nothing would change .  Despite the sacrifices of many people, she was just becoming stronger .  Victory and defeat had been determined since this began .

“All the preparations are finished . ”

“Good work . ”

Paimon appeared beside her .

“I am honored to be with you . ”

“I’m really thankful . ”

She was now a faint white figure . The white sphere in the sky was taking the shape of a person .  She suddenly looked away .  Crockta was returning to battle .

“Great . ”

The **** of war had been thrown back and returned to Olympus from the hit .  However, Crockta survived .  He truly was a warrior who had defeated a **** .  The grey **** had brought him into this world, but even she couldn’t tell that he would become so strong and that he would achieve all those great feats .

Thus, she felt sadder .  She wished she had met him in a different situation .

“Now I will finish this . ”

She released her strength .  The goddess of magic had sacrificed herself to block the previous attack, but now there was no one to stop this one .  Hundreds of grey rays materialized in the air and recognized each target .

“Don’t let me be bothered . ”

Time passed again .  The sun was falling and it was becoming darker .  As the next day arrived, the world would return to a single point and be created again .  She would reverse entropy by using the power of the destroyed world .

It was her mission .

“I will accompany you then . ” She chose a way where even she would disappear .  “It would be nice to finish this with a smile . ”

There was a time when she spent her days relaxing in Olympus, just like any other **** . At that time, the star **** was alive and the sun **** hadn’t fallen asleep . She spent her days with the war god, the goddess of magic and all other gods in Olympus .

They looked down at the ground and laughed, wept and joked .  Why didn’t she know how happy that time was? The old days .  She could never get that time back .  Why did time only flow in one direction? If only she could rewind time for a bit, it would’ve been nice to spend a bit of time in the old days .

Still, there were no regrets .  She was doing what she could, what only she could do .  The universe must be lifted from the eternal sinking .

“Hello . ”

Her power shot towards the targets .  Most of them were pierced and died .  But there were others who blocked it .

Kaaang!

Crockta swung God Slayer .  He was holding his greatsword and stumbling towards her . His body staggered, but he regained his balance and stepped forward .  Their eyes met . His eyes were blazing . Her attack seemed to have poured oil on the fire .

“Cool until the end . ”

He truly had an indomitable will .  Who could beat this will? It was only death that could stop him .  However, her hands shook in the air . It was hesitation .  Their roads were different, but it was too sad . She wanted to talk with him . He who had the strongest spirit that she saw in her long life .

“I will take care of the rest . ” Paimon read her emotions and said .

“Thank you . ”

“It is nothing . ”

Paimon shot towards Crockta instead of her .  He was also given power from the sphere . The power of the grey **** was connected to him .

“It is the end . ”

The thought of the orc’s life ending disturbed the grey god’s heart .  

Crockta recognized Paimon .  There was tension between the two of them . Paimon grinned and emitted power .  The power of the grey **** filled his hands .  He tried to kill Crockta before Crockta could open his mouth .

However .  It was Paimon who was prevented from saying anything .

The mysterious steel belt around Crockta’s waist .  It moved .  The moment that Paimon realized .  A huge mouth swallowed him .

 

***

The grey god, who left the finishing touches to Paimon, was rising towards the sphere .

Then she felt a fierce strength behind her .  It was somehow familiar . A strength that was similar to hers .  It exploded and swallowed Paimon . Her connection with him was broken .

The grey **** turned around .  There was a huge mouth that swallowed everything .

“You…!”

It was an existence that she knew very well .  In the past, when she fought against the gods, the commander who led her army .  He looked like a timid child, but he was actually a ruthless glutton who devoured everything .

“Beelzebub──────!”

He completely swallowed Paimon .  The greedy mouth was dissatisfied and turned towards her .

“How are you…?”

“Mother . ” He started talking .  “I’m sorry . ”

The shape of the child in the darkness of the ‘Demon’s Mouth, Beelzebub whispered .

“Crockta promised me . ” The giant mouth roared towards the grey **** .  “He will prove it with his own life . ”

The end of the universe that the grey **** saw was also communicated to Beelzebub .  She felt a terrible despair and barely held her spirit together, while Beelzebub was so terrified he could do nothing but cower in fear .

He became half crazed and then he met Crockta in Quantes .  He showed Crockta the end of the universe . He tried to pollute Crockta’s mind with emptiness and hopelessness .  However, Crockta made a promise with him .

‘The world isn’t a void . Even if the world will end someday, life isn’t meaningless . ’

In the darkness, Crockta was like a glowing light .

‘Follow me . If you follow me then I will prove it . ’

The eyes of the orc warrior were unshaken .  His eyes were still clearly facing the world .

‘My life . ’

Thus, Beelzebub contemplated the world alongside Crockta . He sat at Crockta’s waist and watched .  The world that he saw was quite different from what Beelzebub knew .  Many things happened . Beelzebub watched everything .

This man stood alone on the battlefield of the world’s destruction .  That’s why Beelzebub acted in the last moment .

Did Crockta prove it? This was Beelzebub’s answer .

Beelzebub roared, “Kuaaaaaah─────!”

The greedy demon Beelzebub’s mouth covered the grey **** .  It was an unbelievable mouth that could even swallow divinity . This was the demon who terrorized the gods .

“You also deserted me for Crockta . ”

The grey **** smiled bleakly .  

The gods of Olympus came with him . She was betrayed by Gushantimur, who previously agreed with her . Abaddon stepped back and now her closest ally revealed himself against her .

“It won’t change anything . ”

She was swallowed by Beelzebub’s mouth .  But she didn’t care . She wielded her divine power inside Beelzebub .  The dark insides of Beelzebub retreated . His body was torn apart from the inside . A hole was created, revealing the outside scenery .  Beelzebub’s giant mouth fell to pieces .

“I will destroy the world soon . ” The grey **** shattered Beelzebub’s body and declared to Crockta .  “You are the only one left . Crockta . ”

Everyone else was down .  He was standing alone .  The white sphere was filling the sky .  The grey **** would join with it .  And Crockta only had a greatsword .

It was the final stage .

“I see . ”

Crockta slowly lifted God Slayer .  A friend who was always with him .  The sword was crying at him .

Crockta smiled .  The two stood facing each other .

Crockta whispered, “Bul’tar . ”

Then they attacked each other again .  Time flowed slowly .

At that moment .  The fallen Beelzebub, who acted like he was dead, rose up and swallowed them both .
