Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 645
Episode 645 A story in the reign (20)
Huiiiiing.
A desolate wind blew.
“omg!”
The monster looked around in surprise.
Suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed. I had been trapped for over three years in a narrow space where it was difficult to lie down in the dark without a single light coming in, and then the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
The monster’s eyes wavered.
‘Oh, no!’
He had gone completely crazy and was brought back to his senses by the god of this realm.
When he came back to his senses, he blamed God. If I had just been left crazy, I would have lived without knowing the physical pain or the extreme loneliness, but to give me my self back? What kind of terrible thing is this?
Another three years passed like that.
In the end, in order to survive in this hellish darkness, he closed off his consciousness and entered a closed coffin.
In Buddhism and Seondo, people go to closed temples for personal training and pursue enlightenment. In other words, it was an act that was close to face-wall training, but even with a decent amount of mental strength, I couldn’t withstand it for three months and would often jump out.
The monster did this for a whopping three years.
And that long period of training gave him many gifts.
Now, if I had climbed just a little more, just half a flight of stairs, I could have been reborn as a human and reached the realm of God.
At that amazing moment, the darkness broke and the wind began to blow.
“Aaaah!”
The monster screamed.
Rumbling.
The entire face was covered in blood due to the nails clenching the skin of the face.
That wasn’t all.
Saaaaagh!
Something whitish began to flow from the monster’s back.
‘Oh, no!’
It was a good spirit that he had collected over the course of three years.
The world of deification opens only when you train your two bodies for ultimate enlightenment and their density and size transcend the limits.
And once the world of myth opens, escaping from this damn hell on one’s own will be no problem. However, all the good energy that we worked so hard to collect is being scattered.
Tsutsutsutsu.
As the two bodies dispersed, the enlightenment I had until now disappeared from my head. The monster couldn’t even remember what he had achieved in the past three years or how he could reach such enlightenment.
The monster screamed again.
“You cruel bastard! this person…!”
Is it because I was locked up for such a long time?
The monster even forgot the swear words. The fact that he was able to speak even after being locked up for such a long time was amazing.
“Ughhhhh!”
The monster fell to the ground and shed tears.
It was a truly sad sight, but it was also like his karma. All the evil deeds he committed while in this world brought enormous negative energy to the world, and the world could not get rid of the existence of such an evil person even after seeing it.
However, since everything in the world is a cycle of eons, it is time to stop and feel at ease, considering the pain he has suffered so far.
“…I was thinking so.”
The monster’s body flinched.
“After hearing the sounds of resentment pouring out of that snout, I really don’t want to set it free.”
Even the playful voice only sounded scary to the current monster.
The monster raised his head.
For a moment, he closed his eyes without realizing it. This was because the radiance emanating from the eyes of the man standing with his back to the sun was more powerful than the sunlight, and he could not dare to face it.
“It’s still pretty good. “To think of training your body for three years, you really don’t have the mental strength of an average person.”
“You… you cruel bastard!”
“I know, man.”
The man, Seoryang, squatted down on the spot.
“It doesn’t look like it. “It seems like you’ve become a lot more shabby than before?”
The monster bit his lip. I had nothing to say.
Seoryang, who was staring at the monster, immediately flopped down and sat down.
“They said guests would be arriving soon. It was a bit too much to just wait, so I looked around and thought of you. “That’s why I came in.”
The monster’s eyes were bloodshot.
The corners of Seo-ryang’s mouth rose.
“Just in case, don’t misunderstand that I came in at the perfect moment.”
“…?”
“Panmajeong constantly informs you of your situation. “When you behave strangely or when it becomes too difficult to contain you, it immediately sends a signal to me.”
“…!”
“I knew that they were gathering sheep spirits. But I had no idea that I had accumulated this much in three years. “It seems that nearly four hundred years of mental torture have strengthened your soul.”
The monster’s face was distorted.
You didn’t come here by chance? In other words, it seemed like he could never escape from Seo-ryang’s grasp.
Grumbling.
Bloody tears flowed from the monster’s eyes.
The fact that he could not escape from the opponent’s grasp, no matter how hard he tried or how hard he struggled, made him despair. I thought I was completely calm now, but I couldn’t come to my senses because even my one hope was trampled.
Xiliang’s eyes deepened.
“why? Are you sad?”
“….”
“It looks like you can’t endure your own pain when you don’t care about the pain of others, right?”
“…Kill him.”
“hate.”
“….”
“Only five years have passed outside. And I plan to eat well and live well for a very long time. “I think I told you once before that I wouldn’t release you until my last breath.”
“…!!”
“Four hundred years in five years… Assuming I live another fifty years, I will have to live another four thousand years.”
Burr.
The monster’s fingertips trembled.
I have to endure ten times more pain than I have experienced so far. Even that wasn’t the exact time period. Considering the level the other person has achieved, he may have to be trapped here for 10,000 years.
“…how.”
The monster asked with a vain look on his face.
“Why on earth are you doing this to me?”
“Even if you forget everything else, you can’t forget why I’m doing this.”
“….”
“If you forget something, you still don’t know. “I’m so sick of discussing things from the past.”
“I oppressed you for only thirty years.”
“It’s just that I haven’t felt any bitterness yet.”
“You locked me up for over four hundred years!”
“Five years.”
“…!!”
“When I was under your command, a day was like a year. “Think of it as similar to that.”
“….”
“Still, I hope you’re happy. “I want to pay back at least ten times what I have suffered, but to do that, I would have to live for over 300 years, and even for me, that would be impossible.”
“…!”
“I hope you have a good time here in the future.”
The monster’s face became blank.
I wasn’t dazed from surprise. It was the expression of someone who had lost everything and had completely lost the will to live.
Seoryang, looking at the monster’s face, nodded inwardly.
Once you get into that state, you can never get it back. But if you can die at will, you can’t. If you don’t want it, the Panma Island won’t work, so the monster will have to remain trapped here, neither dead nor alive.
However… even if it were to go through thousands of years in that state, it would be meaningless torture.
Seoliang snapped his fingers.
Perfect!
In an instant, the barren land turned into a blooming Mureungdowon.
The monster looked around.
“This place…?”
“Do you remember?”
“….”
“Isn’t it similar to the support of your residence when the Uicheon Maeng was alive and well?”
I felt like I couldn’t remember anything. After being tortured for over four hundred years, he forgot and lost many things.
Seo-ryang also looked around and said.
“I really hated this place back then. “It was a nice view, but somehow it felt artificial and stuffy.”
“….”
“Hey…Young.”
The monster frowned.
It didn’t seem like he had lowered his voice, but only the last letter of his name was audible.
In fact, he had even forgotten what his name was.
Seoyang smiled and continued speaking.
“Can’t you hear my name?”
“….”
“Yes, that’s right. Well, it’s worth it.”
It was a word that conveyed a strange feeling. It seemed like there was a fundamental reason why I couldn’t hear my name, not because I was locked up for a long time.
Xiliang sighed.
“Actually, if you hadn’t shown me like that right now, I wouldn’t have told you my true feelings either. But I’ll be honest with you because I’ve completely lost the will to live.”
“….”
“I’ve thought about you a lot over the past five years. And about my past.”
“….”
“What you did to me is definitely shameful, but I have let go of all my resentment and anger towards you. However, because of my principles, I truly intended to keep you locked up until the end of my life. But suddenly this thought occurred to me.”
“….”
“If it weren’t for you, would I have been able to rule the world and reign as the god of magic?”
“….”
“Of course, there is no need to be grateful to the thief just because you felt the need to control your home because of the thief. But I’m a little different now. “Maybe it’s because I’ve completely lost my anger and resentment toward you, but I even felt grateful to you.”
“….”
“So I thought. “When the moment comes that this torture becomes meaningless, I will let you go.”
“…the moment it becomes meaningless?”
“Yes, the moment it becomes meaningless.”
Xiliang’s eyes deepened.
“Just like you are now.”
“….”
“Now is the time to really break up.”
Only through death can one be liberated from this hell.
Even though such a moment came, the monster was not happy. This is because I experienced complete despair a little while ago and forgot most of the joys and sorrows.
However, there was something I was curious about.
“Does this mean you’re going to kill me?”
“no.”
“…?”
“You are already dead.”
“what?”
“Don’t you think it’s strange? “A person can live for over four hundred years.”
“…?!”
“Of course it’s the mental part. The actual time that has passed is five years. In other words, your body has been buried here for the past five years without even having a sip of water.”
In an instant, the monster’s eyes widened.
Xu Liang shook his head.
“You are already dead. “It’s just that my will has held on to your soul until now.”
“…!!”
“Do you understand? You, with only your soul left, can’t reach the Mythological Realm in the first place. “All the good faith and enlightenment you have accumulated so far are just illusions.”
“…huh heh.”
A hollow laugh flowed from the monster’s mouth.
Xu Liang chuckled.
“You had a hard time being tied to this world…Young.”
“Then what happens to me?”
“Look at your hands.”
The monster looked down at his hands.
Pusssss.
Before I knew it, most of my hands had turned into powder and were flying around. The judgment was opened, and his soul, which should not exist in this world, finally came to complete rest.
The monster’s eyes wavered.
“Am I going to die?”
“okay.”
“I see…” “
….”
“….”
“….”
“Is it because I’m already dead that you can’t hear my name?”
“Yes.”
The monster closed his eyes.
“…It’s vain.”
Pussssss.
Soon the monster’s body completely disintegrated and disappeared.
A death so easy as to be vain. If he had realized that his body was dead, even Pan Ma-jeong would not have been able to prevent his soul from collapsing for this long.
Xiliang looked up at the sky.
The powder swaying with the wind and ascending to heaven looked as beautiful as starlight.
“Goodbye, Dam Sa-young.”
