Eps 173 Kerugo Autonomous Region (5)
The expressions of Shirone's friends were also uneasy. The only ones who didn't show any change in emotion were Canis and Arin.
“This is why Kerugo Autonomous Region cannot be opened. The only person who can open the underground door is someone who has inherited the power of angel. That's why we have been waiting for you."
The gate to heaven. It wasn't an absurd notion. Shirone had experienced reaching Miro of Time and Space through Immortal Function.
But this time, the scale was different. The world created by a mage and heaven were different. Kadum was talking about a place where gods reside.
"For a long time, angels have been intermediaries between gods and humans. They have conveyed the will of the gods by transcending time and space. Unlockers are known to have inherited the power of angels. Please. Please, I implore you to restore Kerugo's glory. The tribe is prepared to make any sacrifice for this."
Shirone was at a loss for words. To meet a god and come back. What could one possibly do at when they go to the stars in the sky?
“In the meantime, Kerugo went through numerous crises. We've endured volcanic eruptions, civil wars, and endured all kinds of humiliation from outsiders. The tribe is on the brink of extinction. The tribesmen are starving. However, I believe that the descendants of angels will revive Kerugo."
Amy, tapping her foot impatiently, asked,
"Why don't you buy food? Relying on faith in a situation where you can be self-sufficient is like gambling with your life. We know the income from Loop trade is unimaginably high."
"The situation in Kerugo is more dire than you know. The income from the ruins shared with the Galliant government is not enough to feed 20,000 people. Even if we survive by trading Loops, we will end up being exploited by outsiders, just like 100 years ago. As the chief, I've been praying for God's blessing and saving a fortune for it."
