Genius Corpse-Collecting Warrior - Chapter 299

299

Light of Beginning (5)

Kkwangwang! Gurgling!

A thunderclap erupts from inside the water mist. Large and small fragments bouncing in all directions.

The remains of what used to be a huge throne are flying around like stones on the street.

The short flight that drew a parabola below the celestial sphere ended with being plunged into dark water.

with a splash! Shoot!

Sprays arose from the flying debris. Dallen waved away his sword in the pouring water.

“It’s a good sword.”

Even after breaking the evil god’s throne in two, the keel sword remained intact without a single tooth missing.

Ample guard running under the thick and wide blade. An elongated handle that feels stable and sticks even when covered in water.

Even if LeVeron Ahakim was the so-called mithril refiner, it would have taken a lot of effort to process the bones and by-products of the great dragon to this extent.

This masterpiece, created by processing the bones of great dragons killed by the Holy Knights, was in no way inferior to the holy sword Tortanis, which was modified by the dragon slayer himself.

“I’ll have to pay when I get back.”

I raised my head, swinging my sword lightly.

What filled my eyes was the sight of debris rolling in all directions under a celestial sphere embroidered with hundreds of thousands of stars, and a feast of watery fog with flowers blooming thickly.

The place where the huge black throne was was hidden by fog and was not visible.

However, even with the blow that shattered the throne, the evil spirit did not die. Dallen could feel the presence of a person spreading vaguely within the water fog.

[Dallen. Movement is felt.]

“Confirmed.”

A feeling of sharpness accompanied by a warning of red spears. Step your right foot back a little and your left foot forward.

This Interstellar Throne is the headquarters of Enaxagus.

No matter how much you thought you had won the battle in the middle of enemy territory, if you let your guard down for just a moment, it would be over.

In the first place, just because the throne, which was placed like a remote island in the dark vast sea, was destroyed, it does not mean that the power of that bastard that spread throughout the entire hell disappears.

The moment I thought that, a pale hand began to remove the water mist from the inside.

Hissing—

I immediately lay down my sword and aim it.

He is a master of spells comparable to the Dragon God.

And there has long been only one way to deal with spellcasters most effectively.

Regardless of whether you open your mouth or make a hand sign, if you stab him before the spell comes out, he will be—.

Snap –

three concentric circles overlapping on the surface of the water.

[Huh.]

As the water mist disperses, laughter is heard from behind.

[Dallen! In the back…]

I was able to react because I was prepared. The moment I turned, twelve purple rays that had been shot from behind appeared in front of me.

───────

Spinning around and spilling six.

─────┤!!!

He raises his sword face and lets out three.

Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrut!

One with Arbor’s chains. Two with red spear flames.

The blue cold freezes the magic and repels it, and the dark red flames engulf the light beam entirely.

The red and blue power collides with the purple color, creating a destructive rainbow. The appearance of an evil spirit was visible through the colorful sparkling dew.

[okay. I thought I would stop this. Then—]

Three steps again.

A new model that disappears.

I suddenly raised my head as a numb feeling of death was pressing down on me from above.

The stars swimming in the night sky stopped moving all at once.

… … … … ….

A silent feast of murderous intent and curses melting into hundreds of thousands of burning flames.

/＼/＼/＼/＼/＼

The hostility that extends beyond the horizon tingles my skin.

“…What the fuck.”

Is this what it feels like to be rejected by the world you stand on?

The moment I opened my lungs and barely managed to swear, the stars and the sea twinkled at the same time.

The stars in the celestial sphere shoot out tens of thousands of rays of light in a straight line.

Menacing magical energy boils over from the surface of the vast, purple-colored sea.

‘It’s impossible to avoid.’

Judgment is made in the gap between split moments of time.

An offensive that fills all visible space. There is no space to move the body. The only result is that the moment you take a step, you are crushed by the world.

Excited.

Does not matter. All you have to do is carve out the missing space.

Excited.

For the first time in a long time, I feel my heart beating violently.

Grasp the sword with both hands and take a deep breath.

Phew.

Just like when I dealt with the Great Apostle who was possessed by a demon a long time ago.

Like when he tore apart the demon that corrupted the paladin in the labyrinth.

The collected breath fills the depths of the lungs with oxygen and magical power.

Burning heat spreads through the blood vessels to each and every muscle fiber of the body.

Pure power explodes from the toes, starting from the dragon’s boiling blood and muscles.

Duwoong━━━

The advance I made pressed down on the purple magical power of the surface of the water.

Jeez━━━━━━━!

The tip of the swung sword shattered the shining starlight.

* * * * * *

Darkness flashes before my eyes.

A loud silence filled the son-in-law.

Beyond the oppressed sea and shattered starlight, the main body of the evil god, resembling a huge caterpillar, appeared.

All of the hundreds of pale hands were limp. The guy opened his mouth.

[…Has it really surpassed the divine status?]

The evil god’s power was slightly trembling.

A mask-like face stared intently at Dallon’s sword.

A sight of faint smoke flowing out of the sword body and broken starlight falling like powder beside it.

It is a blow that takes on the power of the world head-on. The evil spirit shook his head. The guy muttered.

[okay. I admit it. You are stronger than me.]

“…….”

[But no matter how much stronger you are than me, you cannot kill me. I am a being who has become one with hell. This means that this infinite world is my true body.]

There is no answer. I walk silently towards him with my sword hanging down.

Jeonseong, where space and trembling are added with each slow step.

The expression on the evil spirit’s face, which hesitatingly retreats, also becomes slightly distorted.

[Even if it means tearing my body and breaking my soul. As long as even a single inch of this scene of hell exists, I will once again…]

“Then can this place just disappear?”

[……What?]

Dallon stopped in place. The evil spirit also stopped walking backwards and trembled.

“They say the hell you integrated is the problem. “Then if I get rid of this, you’ll disappear too.”

[What are you thinking now…]

“It’s not difficult. “If the world collides head-on, it causes irreversible damage to both sides.”

I swung my sword before I could get an answer.

Pieces of starlight flutter from the surface of the sword, and water mist crinkles like paper at the end.

───━━━

It was a feeling of separation that I had now become accustomed to.

The border of the world is crushed and torn apart. The laws and order of another world penetrate through that gap.

──━━│││

The air heats up and cools down.

The bubbles in the floating water droplets sink downward.

The sea surface is bubbling and boiling. A sea of stars starting to crack slightly.

[You…!]

┃┃││││┃┃

「Descent into the realm」

「The light of beginning falling on the snowy mountain」

The pillar of light first illuminates the darkness.

「Closed Snowy Mountain Sky」

Dark red clouds erase the starlight.

「Upside Down Waterfall」

Seawater overturned by gravity and gushing out.

「The gray sky of the end」

Gray color covering from the end of the horizon.

「Exotic flying dragon」

「The sea of thunder that swallowed hell」

「Guardian of the frost on the sky」

「Forge where the dragon’s breath scatters」 The dragon

of lightning and flame swims in the sea of five-colored lightning.

Tens of thousands of weapons poured out from the forge that broke the frozen sea.

In the unstoppable scene of the realm, the celestial sphere was torn into pieces and the sea of darkness began to be erased.

In the middle of a collapsing world. The evil spirit with its mouth wide open shouted.

[you you! Know the price of what you are doing! I mean, are you aware of what you are doing?]

The evil god’s reign was unstable. This was because the great hell was collapsing and it was also losing its original form.

Arms that are dry and crumbly like tree branches in a drought. The dull body of a caterpillar melting into goo.

[What is divine status? He is called a god because he moves the world according to his will. Are you going to face that world head on? It is not just my great hell that is disappearing!]

Dallon stared at the collapsing figure in silence. He knew it too.

What happens when realms collide? What results are created when different orders and laws collide?

[Your world will collapse too! Your hierarchy and your territory!]

The scars left in the real world, not a shadow, cannot be erased.

Some of the peaks of the snowy mountains that had clashed with Daelin’s realm in the labyrinth were still collapsed.

If opening an area means summoning and overlaying a shadow, advent is literally moving the body.

God’s power to move the world came with a price.

[You don’t even know it’s a waste. Everything you built will collapse!]

“It’s a waste, bastard.”

The evil spirit froze in shock. Dallen chuckled.

“How hard have you been in this damn medieval land? Especially because of you.”

It’s not that I don’t have any regrets.

It’s not that I don’t have regrets.

Nevertheless, there was no change in choice. Dallen tilted his head toward the sky.

“I saw the results.”

The end of the gaze is beyond the dark red clouds and the sea of lightning, past the celestial sphere where the stars fluctuate, and towards the scene of hell unfolding upside down.

Hundreds of people were fighting for their lives on the four hells that had been merged into one.

Hundreds of heroes opening their own realms and drawing on their power.

The endings of each world line that ignores injury and death and fights against the forces of hell.

“I saw the consequences of wrong choices. “Hundreds of times.”

Some of them died without even having the strength to protect themselves, but not all of them met a helpless end.

Some people gained the power and authority to move Mount Tai, while others achieved the feat of killing a god in a human body.

Nevertheless, they were also the protagonists of tragedy. Even though he gained power, he was unable to protect anything, so he was the protagonist of an even more miserable ending.

Even excluding the instances of necromancers and warriors, it is not like they have never survived after destruction.

Since I couldn’t find a purpose in the world after destruction, I just gave up on further development and deleted the character.

“The reason I developed my strength was to protect myself. “It’s not about surviving alone in a destroyed world.”

[…….]

“We can’t repeat the same mistake again. is not it?”

The ending of the person whose host and guest were betrayed was miserable.

It was the same on Earth in my previous life.

Among those who have acquired endless honor and fame and money they can never spend in their entire lives, there are at least one or two who are mired in depression and disappointment.

It was not uncommon for people to endure day after day, soaked in alcohol and drugs, and ultimately driven to the point of taking their own lives.

“…okay.”

The evil spirit, whose body had completely collapsed, spoke.

It was not at its peak. Inside the melted shell, something the size of a person was writhing and speaking in a voice.

[I accept your decision. But man, I’m not talking about power right now. I’m talking about your life.]

“Hmm?”

[Have you forgotten that the realm is a vessel that contains power? Where do you think the lost strength will go? It looks like your slender body can withstand the pressure of that power…!]

“Well.”

Dallen shrugged. He said.

“You’ll have to try it to find out.”

Words quietly muttered. The sound of footsteps following as if they had been waiting.

Dark red hair flutters in the wind. It was the first time I had seen him in military uniform in a long time.

[Dallen.]

“Camellia.”

[I won’t ask again this time. I am your spear.]

「The cliff where the reborn ancient dragon rested its body」

The woman holding out her spear transforms into the shape of a huge dragon.

「Echoes of souls spreading through the graveyard」

Hundreds of thousands of vengeful spirits fly towards the starlight with their ears.

“The black sun that burns royalties”

The black sun illuminated an ominous sunset. It was a twilight that crossed the sea and reached the four united hells.

At one point, Dallon was on solid ground. Snow crunching and crunching underfoot. It was a snowy mountain.

“…Negotiation. “Let’s negotiate.”

The evil spirit said. Inside the melted body, a human figure stood.

Dallen shrugged his shoulders once more and raised his sword. He walked towards him without saying a word.

“What do you want? It won’t be wealth and fame. Since he has already ascended to the status of a god, it may not be eternal life. So what about the love of noble women? “What is the wisdom that can invert the principles of all things in the world and even examine the other side of them?”

The evil spirit, completely stripped of his skin, looked like a young man with a good physique. The young man wearing a pitch black mask clapped his hands and spoke passionately.

“okay. Then something else. You come from another world. If so, what is the way to get there? “Creating a passage connecting the world is a big challenge for me, but it won’t be impossible if I’m with you.”

His hesitant steps were leaving long marks in the snow.

Of course, Dallan’s footsteps also left marks in the snow.

And of course, walking forward was faster than walking backward. The distance between the two was already about ten steps.

“Now wait a minute! Don’t think this is the solution! Hell is a sediment of people’s sins and evil intentions. “It’s a bondage that doesn’t end with mere force!”

Five steps.

The young man who was walking backwards fell.

“That’s why my bare face looks the way it does now. Just like Temomron and Xun, our origin is human sin… Argh!”

Three steps.

The tip of the sword drew an arc.

The severed foot could no longer push the ground.

The young man’s back was buried in the snow.

“As long as humans…maintain corruption…evil will always flood again.”

“know.”

“……what?”

One step.

The tip of the sword dug into the ground.

The young man whose lungs and heart were cut out let out a silent scream.

My empty hands groped my waist. The ax hung well.

“You guys have already been defeated once thousands of years ago. Even if we kill them now, thousands of years from now there will be more similar ones.”

Stop walking.

The hand on my waist moved.

An elongated bone knob sprouted from the young man’s forehead. It was a keel-made axe.

“Who else will be working by then? “Whether it’s a game, a novel, or anything else.”

“…….”

“Is it a well in Yeokcheon? Won’t he take care of it? “I don’t need to know that, right?”

No answer came back.

Dallen flopped down in the snow.

In no time, my butt became wet and cold. I was thinking about going into the cabin over there, but decided against it.

Anyway, it’s a cabin with no wood for fire. There were only a few pieces of moldy jerky or something.

I sighed and looked up at the sky and saw dark clouds. Above it was a sea of lightning, a pitch-black sun, and a celestial sphere full of stars.

Rumble….

The sound of thunder rang out.

It was the sound made as various landscapes collided and disappeared in the process of worlds gradually overlapping.

When it sparkles and shines, a fistful of dark clouds fly away. When it twinkles again, a sea of stars appears. Also, one of the spires of the Palace of Destruction twinkles. There is one peak of a snowy mountain stained gray.

The sparkling continued for a while, to the point where it was a bit boring. Until my buttocks, which had been cold and wet, became moderately warm and wet.

After a while, all the sparkle stopped.

━━━━━━━

A bright light filled my eyes.

A world where countless images have gathered and become one, and a great hell where countless sins have gathered and become one.

The light that exploded as the two worlds completely overlapped was white.

Just like the monitor at the start of the game.
