Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 116
# 116
116
The moment when silence fell in the sanctuary for one second that felt like an eternity.
“Lord-!”
Armagan, who was lying face down on the floor, let out a roar and rushed towards Daesung.
Puzzle-!
The thunder sword scattering lightning without mercy seemed to represent his despairing feelings.
“Aaaah-!!”
Armagan, with his bloodshot eyes, became haggard, as if he had aged 20 years in this short period of time.
Daeseong swept away the body of the main body lying on the floor with his tiptoe and went to fight.
“…uh uh uh…?”
“Master Lemuet!”
Meanwhile, Lemuët’s face was bloodshot and his hand holding the stone was trembling. Roderick quickly placed his hand on her shoulder, which was as stiff as ice.
Lemuët suddenly came to his senses and looked at Roderick with a hiccup.
“Lo Roderick…?”
“Come to your senses! “What are you going to do if you let go too?”
“But Roderick… Hehehe, the Lord… The Lord…”
He hugged himself, who was just a worthless soul wandering in the heavens.
The gracious being who had given me wings to congratulate me on successfully overcoming the ordeal and becoming an apostle was now a withered, dead body lying on the floor.
Lemuët, faced with an almost unknown nightmare, shed endless tears.
“Lemuet. It’s not time to put down your hands yet. From now on, please listen carefully to what I say.”
“What is that…”
“You should head to the Sanctuary right now. “Leave this to Armagan and me!”
Lemuët’s eyes widened as if to ask if he was serious.
sanctuary.
A place like the core where the Lord rests and all the divine powers of heaven gather.
Why should I go now to a place where even apostles who freely enter and exit the temple are not allowed to touch it?…
“Rodrik, no way! “You look at me…”
“Is there a better way than this? Look around. Do you think there is anything more we can do here?”
“….”
“There is no choice. Go to the Sanctuary. hurry!”
Grumbling-!
The flower beds of the temple burned like oil poured on fire. The sky, which was once full of spring sunshine, has now become so dark that no color can be found.
Heaven and earth, built with the blood and flesh of the main god, were no longer able to withstand and began to collapse.
widely!
Lemuët did not reply any further and ran through the temple that was engulfed in flames.
Now that the Lord is dead, the stone pole that does not receive His answer is just a stick that is of no help.
On the other hand, Armagan and Rodrik have swords and maces that can be used as weapons even if they do not have divine powers.
‘I’m the only one.’
However, the only one who could truly overcome this crisis was Lemus.
That’s why Roderick must have sent her to the sanctuary, claiming to be a scapegoat.
That sacrifice should not be in vain.
‘I… I have to do it!’
The enraged voices of Rodrik and Armagan echoed from behind.
The sound of weapon clashing with weapon, sparks flying, and someone’s blood splashing without mercy continued endlessly.
Lemuët hurriedly opened the entrance and exited the temple.
And the moment I faced the tragedy that had struck heaven, I covered my mouth.
“ah…!”
The heavens that spread out beyond the white territory had become chaotic, as if the realms of hell had been mixed up.
A black whirlwind sweeping the ground engulfed innocent Elyos. In the sky where the sun has disappeared, thunderstorms continue to pour down. The death of the god who holds the fate of the dimension is directly linked to disaster.
Flap!
Lemuët sobbed like a lost child, spreading his wings and flying up.
Leaving behind the cries of those struggling in the flames, asking for help.
She took flight repeatedly, trembling at her helplessness.
We arrived at the place we reached through the dark clouds, avoiding the vicious thunderstorm, and there was a floating golden stone gate.
The ‘core’ that makes heaven exist.
It is a sanctuary.
“Please allow this lowly being to enter.”
Lemuët chanted clearly and begged toward the stone gate.
The moment the desperate voice responded to the sanctuary, the stone gate opened wide.
Lemuët quickly entered the sanctuary without even having time to feel emotional.
The inside was a small, detached room with vegetation on all sides.
[I don’t know why the Apostle bothered to visit the sanctuary now that the fate of heaven is at stake.] An
emotionless man’s voice lingered in Lemuët’s ears.
Even after ascending to the position of apostle, she could not figure out the identity of this voice.
Is Sanctuary speaking to me with its will, or is it secretly whispering to me from an invisible being?
But now the situation was too urgent to question it.
When asked why he hid here, Lemuët did not make any excuses and simply got to the point.
“We need the Holy Grail of cause and effect. Right Now!”
[Does the Apostle know what he is talking about?]
“There is no time!”
Even at this very moment, countless lives are dying. There was no time for questions and answers.
The voice of the sanctuary cannot go against the orders of the main deity and the apostle.
Slurp.
One part of the vines that filled the interior gathered in front of Lemuët, twirling like an outstretched arm, and soon returned to its original place.
In the place where the stem disappeared, a golden drinking glass was already there.
[Don’t forget. Just as spilled water cannot be put back into a glass, causality that has been forcibly destroyed can never be undone.] “….” Lemuye picked up the Holy Grail of causality that was lying on the floor with trembling
hands
.
The bottom of the glass could not be seen because it was pitch black.
“Ha, let me ask you one thing. If you use the Holy Grail of Cause and Effect, what will happen to the memories of those involved…”
[Erased. Excluding those who used the Holy Grail and those with powerful divine power equal to or greater than that of an angel.]
“So, that means that the memories of me, other apostles, and the Lord will also be preserved, right?!”
Just when Sanctuary was about to give an answer.
Kwaduk-!
“…?!”
At the loud noise coming from the rear, Lemuët shook his shoulders and looked back.
And I almost fainted.
The flaming sword that killed the main god and the apostle was already violently cutting through the stone gate.
“How do I use this?! “I don’t know how to handle the Holy Grail!”
[Smash the glass. In that case-.]
Before he could say more about what the sanctuary was, Lemuët closed his eyes tightly and held the chalice high.
And….
clang-!
The sharp sound of causality breaking echoed throughout the sanctuary.
***
I felt a breeze gently tickling my ears.
Instead of the terrible burnt smell that gave me a headache, a strong floral scent flowed into my nasal passages.
“….”
Lemieux slowly lifted his tightly shut eyelids.
And I couldn’t stop the exclamation from coming out of my mouth.
“Ahhh…!”
The temple, which had been engulfed in fire just a little while ago, was restored to its original state as if it had never been so.
Seven dawns falling from the sky illuminated the flower bed.
“What the hell is this…?”
“Uh huh?”
“What happened?”
The six apostles were looking around with puzzled eyes or caressing their chests.
Lemuët recited their names one by one, feeling tears welling up in his eyes.
“Orchiel Adonis Roderick Einrich Armagan Ragmaon…”
I’m back.
Everything.
Before heaven was trampled by that devil and the apostle met death!
Lemuët’s legs were so weak that he collapsed on the spot.
Roderick, who had been confused, finally figured out the current situation and looked at her.
You did it.
These eyes are filled with such relief.
“….”
Meanwhile.
Armagan did not miss the tangled gazes of Roderick and Lemuët.
He immediately realized that Lemuët had done ‘something’ and asked a question.
“…What did you do to Lemur?”
“This Holy Grail of cause and effect…”
Lemuët opened his mouth in a trembling tone, but could not finish what he was saying.
match-!
The plum blossoms that filled the temple were shaken by the rustling sound. Armagan slapped her in the face.
“Master Armagan!”
Roderick was horrified and shouted.
Even though he is the first apostle, he can’t help but stab a colleague of the same divine status!
Rodrik reflexively jumped out and tried to stop Armagan.
Sreung!
Until the thunder sword stretched out one step faster and aimed at the nape of his neck.
Rodrik stiffened as if he had stepped on a mousetrap, and the rest of the apostles who were watching the scene gasped.
Armagan only slightly turned his head towards Lemuët without removing his sword.
“I don’t know how you’re going to handle this, Lemuët.”
“Ha but I had no choice! If we had left it as is, heaven would have been destroyed!”
“okay. “Thanks to you, it caused even greater chaos.”
“I just saved you, Armagan, and heaven. “What choice should I have made there!”
“I should have accepted a glorious death. … Okay, now is not the time to start a vicious war of words.”
Armagan put away his thunder sword and walked to the entrance of the temple leading to heaven.
The apostles followed, and Roderick walked on, silently supporting Lemuët, who was in despair.
yet.
“Oh my…”
“I’m really back.”
As soon as they left the temple, what the apostles saw was a heavenly view that had been neatly restored to its original state.
The flames that decorated the earth, the sky filled with lightning, and the Elyos who died crying out in sorrow are no longer there.
There are only landscapes that have returned to their original appearance and people who lead their daily lives with innocent faces.
“It shouldn’t be like this.”
And Armagan, who was looking at all this as if it were strange, spread his wings and flew away somewhere.
The apostles thought he was going up to the sanctuary to check on the Lord’s condition, but no.
He headed towards the Aboria Mountains.
Near the top where there is a ‘hole’ connected to the root neck of the dimensional tree.
“Armagan!”
“Why is the number of dimensions suddenly…!”
The other apostles also hurriedly spread their wings and followed Armagan.
After a while.
The seven apostles were staring at the hole connected to the root neck with wide-open eyes.
Hehehe!
A strong wind came from inside the hole. A fierce wind that felt like it was chilling to the bone.
Orkiel, whose face was as pale as if it had been powdered, spoke in a trembling voice.
“This is definitely blowing from the dimensional water… isn’t it?”
“It is a wind that should not blow from a tree grown with heaven’s blessings.”
Swish!
Armagan left only those words and threw himself into the hole without hesitation.
Then the other apostles also jumped into the hole in droves.
Hehehe!
“…?!”
Suddenly, a suction power, as if being swept away by a tsunami, took over the entire body of the apostles.
For a moment, I was sucked deep into the hole without being able to move.
“Ugh….”
“Damn it! “I can’t figure out how things are going from earlier…”
The fourth apostle, Adonis, touched his throbbing forehead and opened his squinted eyes again.
“…there must be.”
And the moment he saw the shape of the dimensional beast, he had to drop the polearm he was holding on the floor.
The other apostles at the root were also caught in astonishment.
“Why are the dimensions like that?!”
The branches that should have been tied in a circle along the surface of the pillar were now stretched out stiffly.
Moreover, for some reason, it only extends on one side.
“Oh, no! How did this happen…!”
“A task that has been accomplished through shedding blood and sweat!”
The discouraged apostles cried out.
The stem of the dimensional tree contained a sealed space-time of another dimension.
It was tied ‘as one’ to a pillar connected to the root neck, but now it has all come loose.
Lemuët intuited that this was related to the breaking of the Holy Grail of cause and effect.
-Don’t forget. Just as spilled water cannot be put back into a glass, once it has been forcibly destroyed, it can never be undone. –
Sanctuary’s warning passed through my mind again.
Lemuët couldn’t take his eyes off the hideous dimensional tree and his hands were shaking.
“Is it possible that cause and effect were distorted because I… broke the Holy Grail?”
“I know very well. But why are you asking?”
Armagan shook his head and answered in a cold, subdued voice.
“As you said, cause and effect has been distorted. “Then wouldn’t it be natural for something to go wrong with the dimensional number that contained space and time?”
“I didn’t intend to make all the work I’ve done so far in vain…”
“Even if it wasn’t my intention, this is the result. Don’t you think it’s too late to regret it?”
At this time, Orkiel, who was quietly looking at the branches extending endlessly to one side, opened his mouth.
“The dimensions that have been freed from bondage are all heading in the same direction. We are looking for a place where the flow of time and space can be established. “There is no doubt about it.”
“Like a wanderer who lost his home…”
“But it’s a home. Does such a thing exist? That means it’s a dimension we haven’t discovered yet.”
“I can’t be sure there isn’t one. “The multiverse is that wide.”
The apostles calmed down and calmed down and began to reason with each other.
Then, for a moment, Orkiel violently wrung his facial muscles and ground his teeth.
“Oh yeah! That crazy devil! That guy is the one who unlocked the Abyss. “That bastard proudly spoke out loud before killing me!”
“I don’t know where on earth such a person appeared, but in any case, I am certain that he is not an entity that flowed out of a sealed dimension.”
“Then, where the branches are pointing is the land where he was born…”
The apostles stopped their discussion and rolled their eyes along the long branches.
In that far, far away place where the tips of these branches reach.
Maybe there is a world where the devil lives.
The apostles swallowed their saliva.
As the silence continued, Armagan turned to Lemuët and asked.
“How far has time gone back?”
“I don’t know. “I just did what Sanctuary told me…”
“We still have the same memories as before we came back. Is this normal?”
“I heard that the memories of those who use the Holy Grail and those with divine power higher than that of an Apostle will not be erased.”
“If that’s the case, then that guy probably doesn’t have any memories from before he regressed. He’s not an Elyos or anything to begin with.”
I have no memory.
The eyes of the apostles, who had been somewhat helpless, sparkled brightly at the fact that Armagan mentioned.
