Chapter 311: Rebirth: I Am a Birdman
Chapter 1365 Rebirth: I am a birdman
"How can a mere mortal hurt me, the king of Jotunheim!"
"How can you hurt me, the great me who can even play with gods!"
At the moment when the floating castle was destroyed by [Dragon Artemis-Dragon Meteor=QUA], [Utgard] escaped from the castle with the help of the disintegrated floating castle as a cover-Utgard Loki, although he used the floating castle "Utgard" as part of his name, his body has never been that castle.
The reason why [Utgard], as a duel monster, is a rock monster is simply because that castle can be counted as a rock monster, just like [Life Torrent Dragon], which possesses the power of the red dragon heart, can disguise itself as a mechanical monster [Power Tool Dragon] wearing mechanical armor. The real Utgard Loki is an independent life.
Normally, he stayed in his palace, using magic to control the castle disguised by illusions as his hands and feet, but when the danger came, he abandoned his castle without hesitation. Although it was a powerful fortress city that he had spent a long time to build with the mountain giants, it was far less important than his own life.
Utgard Loki sat on the throne, holding the armrest tightly and gritting his teeth, relying on the fact that he was the only one in the palace and cursing Hayato in a rather unruly manner.
——Although in mythology, Utgard Loki appeared in front of gods such as Thor and Loki as a giant, he was actually just a kid who looked young. For Utgard Loki, who could use illusions to manipulate even monsters and gods—even Loki, who was also good at illusions—it was easy to use illusions to create an illusionary body that was much bigger than himself.
The reason why the illusion was created was a giant, on the one hand, there was the fact that Jotunheim, ruled by Utgard Loki, was a country of giants and the giants under his command accounted for the majority, but perhaps it was also affected by his short height. Even, he chose to use the castle as his image when he was out, maybe because of this inferiority complex?
But none of this mattered. What mattered was that he, who was noble, ruled the outer domain, and was alone after losing all his subjects in the country, was actually defeated! It was simply a great shame!
However, I, a noble man, must not be caught by such a vulgar mortal, and my great mind must not disappear from this world! Therefore, even if it means abandoning my favorite castle, I must escape!
Seeing the castle wreckage exploded above his head through the magic mirror, Utgard Loki laughed hard despite his heartache: "Hehe, hehe, hahahahaha, you finally let me escape, you mere human, I'm afraid you are still deceived by the illusion I created with my magic? I will definitely take revenge for the loss of a castle!"
"Let us remember today together! I remember your revenge, and you should also remember that today you have achieved the only commendable achievement in your insignificant life, that is, you almost caught me, Lord Utgard Loki!"
"No, I lost the castle 'Utgard', now I still use my real name 'Skrimir'. Hehe, how could a mere human think that this is the escape route of Lord Skrimir! In terms of wisdom, how could a mere human be my opponent-"
Laughing arrogantly, Utgard, no, now it is the illusionist Skrimir who lost the castle, his laughter stopped abruptly and his smile froze on his face. The reason was simple. He saw Hayato in the sky suddenly glanced at him, and then commanded his terrible mechanical dragon to swoop towards him! ?
"No, impossible!? He actually saw through my illusion?!" Scrimir was completely panicked. He quickly waved his hand to disperse the magic mirror in front of him and didn't look at Hayato's sharp eyes that made him tremble even from a distance.
However, he knew that such behavior was no different from an ostrich burying its head in the ground when it encountered danger. Although he didn't know how he did it, from the behavior of that terrible human who approached him without hesitation after discovering him, it can be seen that he would never let him go!
He had to think of a way quickly!
Jumping down from his throne, Skrimir no longer had the mood to use illusion to disguise himself as a giant, and looked around his palace anxiously: "Is there anything, anything that can be used?"
As the king who ruled the Outer Realm, even though the Outer Realm was too barren and even looked down upon by [Flame Realm War - Nagilfar], he could still collect a lot of things by piecing together, not to mention that Jotunheim, as the land of giants, used to have a large number of mountain giants living there. Although mountain giants sounded very rustic and stupid, contrary to the name, mountain giants had a completely different dexterity from other giants, and were better at building than destroying. Even the walls of Asgard, where the Aesir lived, were built by them.
It can be said that the mountain giants and dwarves, two races, one tall and one short, are the races that are best at making things in the Nine Realms. Therefore, as the ruler of the Giant Kingdom, Skrimer also collected a lot of strange things. Even though the mountain giants have disappeared, they did not take these things away.
"Lanterns that only shine when the sun rises but never light up when it sets, automatic magic scissors that look like shoes but can actually be used to trim beards, and cages that cannot be opened unless you run inside for a certain period of time after closing them."
Skrimer's face darkened as he searched through his inventory. Which idiot collected these useless things? Not to mention the critical moment now, even under normal circumstances, such rubbish would not be useful!
What, I collected them myself? That's fine.
"Found it, this is it!" After finally finding something useful, Skrimer excitedly raised it up, "A long sword that can be used to separate everything in the world! I remember that this thing can be used to open a one-way passage to Helheim. It is a very useful trash can. You don't have to worry about the trash being thrown back by people over there, and there are not many people in Helheim."
(Mysterious weapon without a name (laugh)
"In other words, as long as I use this thing to open the portal to Helheim, no one can catch up with me, hahahaha!"
While laughing triumphantly, Skrimer was about to hold the weapon made by an unknown mountain giant in his hand and gesture in the air in front of him.
However, just as Skrimer was about to swing the knife, the palace he was in suddenly trembled violently, and the long-term Scrimir, who did not fight with anyone, accidentally failed to hold the knife in his hand firmly, and with one swing, he let it fall out, and the handle of the knife was stuck on the ground with the tip of the knife facing down.
Then, the palace was originally descending rapidly, but it was as if someone stepped on the emergency brake, and the palace, which seemed to be pulled by something, suddenly slowed down. Under the action of inertia, Scrimir's feet tilted, and he actually fell to the long knife on the ground? !
(Picture reference)
"What, what's going on!?" Scrimir looked at the tip of the knife getting closer and closer to him in disbelief, completely unable to resist the inertia on his body, "Why would I, as a caster, make such a low-level mistake?!"
"No, that's not right, I remember, the moment the duel just ended, if it wasn't for me and "The pain that was almost transmitted to me when the control was cut off, even my castle 'Utgard' is made of rock and can feel the pain of the soul!"
"Could it be that, could it be that, the duel just now was actually a dark duel of sacrificing souls, and I was targeted by the power of darkness while avoiding the punishment of defeat! ? But how is it possible! A mere human actually has the power to launch a dark duel! ? "
"I, I Scrimir——!"
"Puff——! ! "
When Hayato used [Ryugi Takumi-Tianlong Liuxing=QUA] to elbow open the illusion and protective spells arranged on the outer layer of the palace-style escape pod, and looked inside from the cut surface to find [Hypothetical World King War-Utgard], he only saw the scene of Scrimir being pierced from the center of his forehead by a long knife stuck in the ground.
"What is this? So, he didn't want to be captured so he committed suicide? I thought he wanted to escape. "Falcon blinked his left eye, and restored the "Eye of Rune" to its original state, confirming that the scene in front of him was not an illusion but a real scene.
"I don't think so either. Utgard is not a very principled guy. This look, maybe it's just an accident?" [Shadow of the King's War-Lopt] appeared next to Hayato and complained, "It's just that the look is really embarrassing, especially since he is carrying the face of "Loki". Now I'm also unlucky."
But at this moment, I don't know if it was because Scrimir's body was so heavy, his body was bound by gravity and fell to the ground, causing the knife to pierce deeper. The knife that had only poked a hole in his head pierced through the back of Scrimir's head and protruded out.
If it was just a knife, it would be nothing, but the problem is that as the tip of the knife pushed out, two more figures were pushed out from the body of Scrimir who had lost his breath?
"Eh?"
One of the figures sat down on the ground, looking at his body with an unbelievable expression, "I'm fine?"
"Could it be that fate still favors me, Skrimir? Hum, hum, haha, I actually got a new body!"
"Jotunheim, your king is back--it hurts!"
The yellow-haired boy who was hit on the head and whose heroic words were interrupted before he finished speaking turned his head suddenly, his purple eyes full of malice, "Who dares to touch the noble me?"
(The body size that can sit on the backpack)
He didn't continue his words, because he found that the person in front of him was actually the mortal who had chased him before, but why did the mortal's body size become many times larger, and even the calf alone was almost the same height as himself! ?
"No, that's not right, it's not that guy who has grown bigger."
Before, he only paid attention to his own body and didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment. "Skrimir" was horrified to find that although the palace was still the palace he was familiar with, its size was the same as Hayato's, and it had expanded a lot. A more accurate statement would be—I actually became smaller! ?
And it's not just a reduction in age like "the body is like a child but the mind is like an adult", but it's that his body has shrunk to nearly a quarter of its original size, becoming only twenty or thirty centimeters tall? !
"You just said, 'Skrimir', right? Humph, then this is the guy you are looking for, Lord Tanli Dou." [Shadow of the King of War - Loput] stood like a dogleg Next to Hayato, he looked at the short "Scrimir" with disdain, "This guy is the [Void King Battle - Utgard] you are looking for, but is he such a short man?"
"You haven't seen him before?"
"I've seen it, but he used illusions to create the illusion of a giant. Even I can't see through his illusions." [King of War Shadows - Loput] said, and complained about Hayato, "You just took a few glances. Just take away the 'Eye of Rune', even I can't do it, how on earth did you see through his illusion?"
"I can only say that you Nordic gods are really not very good at it. You can't even resurrect them after death. Unlike the Egyptian gods, you can put them back together after being cut into pieces."
But after hearing Hayato's exchange with [King of War Shadow-Loput], "Scrimir" who originally wanted to pretend to be stupid couldn't hold back for a moment and said angrily: "I'm not short at all, it's just that this world is too tall! And it’s unexpected that it turned out like this!”
"Abominable giants and inherently evil human imps actually dare to approach me at this distance. Do you think I can only use illusions to avoid fighting? Watch me use my invincible magic to inflict endless pain on you!" While saying, "Scrimir" stretched his hands straight forward and shouted, "Purgatory Unparalleled Explosive Heat Wave Cannon!"
[Shadow of the King's War - Lopt], who didn't react to what "Skrimir" said, turned around belatedly and looked at "Skrimir" strangely, who stretched out his arms but did nothing, and raised an eyebrow. : "What did you just say?"
"The great fire is extinguished!" "The Heavenly Dancing Treasure Wheel!"
"Scrimir", who did not believe in evil, used two different magics in succession, but was horrified to find that he had lost the ability to release magic, and even lost the illusion that he was good at, and his face suddenly turned pale. .
"No, it's impossible. My Baowa, why did I lose Baowa?"
"Idiot, of course it's because magic and illusions were assigned to my side during the separation~"
A female voice sounded, causing "Scrimir" to turn his head and look over, and found that on the other side of his "corpse", a girl with the same yellow hair as herself was casually tearing off a piece of curtain and wrapping it around her, who was also only in her twenties and thirties. He turned around and looked at himself with the same pair of purple eyes, with a contemptuous sneer on his lips, "You don't think that you are still 'Scrimir', you are really stupid and a bastard" Woolen cloth."
But what "Scrimir" was most concerned about was not the other party's appearance and words, but what was more surprising was that he actually saw a pair of dark wings behind the girl?
Noticing "Scrimir's" gaze, the girl looked at him with disgust and said coldly, "What are you looking at? Don't you have it yourself?"
Hearing this, "Scrimir" panicked and touched his back, and found that he actually had a pair of wings on his back, but the color of the plucked feathers was more yellow than pure black.
For a moment, his heart was filled with despair: 'What's wrong, am I reborn as a birdman? ’
Today's scheduled update was at 0:00, but I got up in the middle of the night and took a look and found that it didn't update automatically.
