Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 127
# 127
127
Einfried’s eyes, looking down at the white bone that had become as black as coal, lost focus.
This is Sief?
….
No, that can’t be possible.
Einfried couldn’t help but laugh and slowly rowed the whale.
He bent his waist slightly and rolled his back to the front like he was handling a bowling ball.
Degurrr-. widely.
Baekgol stopped at Daeseong’s feet.
Einfried just shrugged, still not smiling.
“I don’t know how you know Sizef’s name, but do you think I’ll believe such a crude lie?”
“It’s not a lie.”
“Shizef is strong. Maybe you’re stronger than me. This guy is the assault leader of our knights. “At least in terms of magic, there is no one who can compare to Sijeph.”
“There are two scars engraved on Sizef’s left pelvis.”
“…what?”
The smile on Einfried’s face was wiped away in an instant.
Daesung paid no heed and continued speaking.
“13-year-old Sizef, who was born male and wanted to become a swordsman rather than a mage, was jealous of your talent. I couldn’t accept you for coming from a country bumpkin in the East. So I started a fight.”
“Wait. “What are you doing now?”
“Shizef was defeated by you. That’s when the scar on my pelvis appeared. But rather, that fight strengthened your relationship, and I know that Sizef is still sorry that you left an indelible scar on his pelvis. “But I just don’t show it on purpose.”
Confusion rose in Einfried’s mind. So Daesung’s voice sounded very faint to his ears.
How does that guy know that? That was a secret between myself and Sief. Unless he is a comrade who has his back after going through a war together, a self-respecting Sijeph will never show his pelvic wound to anyone.
A voice escaped from Einfried’s trembling lips.
“Yes, you did that-.”
“How did you know?”
Daesung’s eyes flashed bright blood red. The air in the office became cold, as if winter had arrived.
“How do you think you knew?”
“….”
“I’m sorry you rejected my gift. “If you don’t like it, you don’t have to take it.”
-widely. Daesung’s feet rose above the white bones on the floor.
Einfried’s eyes opened wide, as if his eyelids were torn. And…
Kwasik-!
At the same time as the white bones were being crushed mercilessly, the image of Sief smiling with his teeth flashed before Einfried’s eyes.
“…!!”
And his legs were already on the ground before he could even finish his thought.
Anger and screams, as if boiling from the bottom of hell, filled the Blue House office.
The blade, which had already been pulled out of the scabbard, was stretched out towards Daeseong, letting out a sad cry like a ghost.
Einfried, who originally wields a magic sword, can just fire a long-distance lightning strike even if he doesn’t engage in close combat.
Nevertheless, the reason he narrowed the distance like this was to stab and kill his friend’s enemy in front of him.
This is a deliberately induced reaction.
“Liberation of the dead soul.”
Dark souls began pouring out of Daesung’s shoulder.
The dead souls were different from the previous ones where only their faces were separated. He broke through the pandemonium with his upper and lower body clearly existing and captured Einfried.
thud-!
“Ugh…!”
The magic sword slipped and fell on the floor.
Einfried, whose limbs were grabbed by the demonic beasts, was thrown from the bridge of his nose to the floor. The pain of my nose bone being broken pierced my brain.
But anger erased the pain. Einfried looked up at Daesung with eyes that looked like they were about to shed bloody tears.
Daeseong picked up Einfried’s sword that had fallen on the floor and opened his mouth.
“You can’t do anything without a sword.”
“I will kill you! “I swear to God Hild, I will kill you!”
“The friends and parents of those who died by your hands will say the same thing as you.”
Footsteps echoed loudly in the hallway leading to the office.
The soldiers brought by Einfried heard the noise and rushed over.
The soldiers who saw the scene unfolding inside the office were confused and embarrassed.
“Demon Sword Hild. Did you say it was named after the god you serve? “It’s not a bad sword to use once and throw away.”
Daeseong, holding the heald in one hand, stepped on the Jinggak and ran like a cannonball.
Then the soldiers urgently deployed the haze defense shield, but-.
Phew!
Hild’s blade was thrown forward, passed through the shield, and powerfully pierced the neck of the soldier on the front line.
‘Same magic weapons can cancel out the shield.’
The haze shield is useless in front of the magic sword Hild. This is also information learned from Sizef’s memories.
Of course, if it were a Fire Flame Greatsword equipped with a fragment of the origin, such rules would be easily ignored…
‘This is enough.’
I didn’t feel like putting in my best effort right now.
Puzzle-!
The soldiers, shocked by the death of their comrade, rashly tried to use lightning magic.
However, it took 3 seconds to complete casting, and with Daesung in front of him, 3 seconds meant death.
The blade, which seemed rough at first glance but was swung elegantly in a horizontal line, took the lives of soldiers in droves.
“stop! “Stop it, stop it…!”
Einfried, who was pinned down by the demonic beasts and could not move, screamed.
It is a sword that protects the people of Flormaria.
It is a sword blessed by God and promised to save the empire from crisis.
But now that sword is killing soldiers. The beautiful silver blade is now stained with the blood of a fellow soldier.
Daesung’s inaction was overwhelming.
He did not know how to use Plomaria’s magic, so he only swung the magic sword for cutting and stabbing purposes.
But with that alone, soldiers died in vain like straw.
In the blink of an eye, all of the elite troops led by Einfried perished.
Daeseong stood in front of Einfried, drenched in blood.
Einfried, who was in a state of despair, buried his face on the floor and sobbed.
“I won’t kill you here.”
Sigh-!
Daesung violently slammed the magic sword Hield into the floor and said that.
“You probably want revenge. Take revenge. I won’t stop you. “I also have no intention of killing you in vain like this.”
“….”
“There is a wasteland in the southwestern part of the country called America. You probably don’t know where it is. “It just so happens that the palace where the queen you serve, Envette Rosen, lives, is nearby.”
The core area of Plomaria was mainly concentrated in the West.
Among them, the royal palace of Queen Envette Rosen, who rules the empire, is located in New Mexico.
Thanks to Insight’s ‘map’ viewing function, it was possible to get a rough idea of where something was.
“Let’s have a proper decisive battle there tomorrow. Prepare your army. Be prepared to do everything you can. “We will go there.”
Even while crying frantically, Einfried listened clearly to Daesung’s words.
It was because I thought that if I lost consciousness here, I might really die.
However, as I said before, Daesung had no intention of killing him right now.
Pak-!
The thick blade of the hand struck Einfried on the back of his neck. Einfried lost consciousness and fainted.
***
Shoot ah-.
Heavy rain falling from the night sky turned the ground into mud.
Einfried, who had lost consciousness, was lying on the muddy ground.
A remote place somewhere in New Mexico.
“uh! excuse me!”
“Knight Commander!”
Imperial scouts wandering nearby discovered Einfried and rushed to him.
They quickly helped the knight commander, whose body was cold, and headed toward the city center.
An old-fashioned castle stood among the skyscrapers of New Mexico.
It was an incredibly bizarre scene, as if it was caught somewhere between reality and fantasy.
***
Einfried began to gradually regain consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.
My vision is blurry, like there is fog flowing across the ceiling.
“Ain!”
A delicate voice with a pitiful tone pierced my ears. A gentle hand smoothed his arm.
Einfried groaned and turned his head to the source of the voice.
“Ain! Come to your senses?! “Say something!”
“So Sonia…?”
“ah! Thank you, Lord Heald…!”
It was a woman with straight dark blonde hair, just like Einfried.
They are so similar that if someone who didn’t know much about the situation saw them, they would mistake them for brother and sister.
But the two were lovers. And they’re already engaged.
“So Sonia, this is….”
“It’s the Imperial Infirmary. “The scouts found you lying nearby and brought you here.”
“…I see.”
“Ain, how are you feeling? “There were no serious injuries other than some bruises… What happened?”
“What happened…”
At that moment, Einfried widened his narrow eyes. Sonia, surprised to see that, shrugged her shoulders.
I remembered.
I remembered everything.
From meeting the President to Sizef’s death… and everything that murderous bastard said!
“ah…!”
“Oh Ain? what’s the matter? “What’s wrong?”
“Si… Sijeph…”
“Sijeph? “Why did Sizef-.”
But Sonia couldn’t ask anything more or continue what she was saying.
This is because thick streams of tears flowed down Einfried’s cheeks.
Sief’s name suddenly appeared. And Einfried’s tears.
Sonia was not clueless enough to not know what this meant.
“That can’t be possible. Sijeph… Is Sijeph really…?”
Even Sonia, who heard the news of the death, ended up covering her mouth and shedding tears.
Einfried Sonia Seezef. These three are childhood friends who have been in a relationship since before entering into an agreement. It was a relationship that did not change even after they received an oracle and entered the empire.
Therefore, Sizef’s death was bound to come as an indescribable shock to Sonia.
“….”
Einfried looked at her wailing face with tear-filled eyes.
I had mixed emotions.
One day, the continent of Plomaria was suddenly invaded by Heaven and was destroyed.
In this way, Einfried had no choice but to part ways with Sonia forever.
But, trapped in the cold ice, the lover I thought I would never see again was right in front of me.
And…
there is only Sonia.
Now that Sief is dead, she is really the only one left by my side.
Come on.
Einfried shed tears and hugged Sonia in his arms. Sonia also naturally wrapped her arms around Einfried’s back.
It was a hug with a lot of meaning.
***
“When the empire first emerged here, everyone was dumbfounded.”
“That goes for me and Sizef as well. “When I opened my eyes, an unknown landscape unfolded before me.”
“His Majesty Envet was also very embarrassed. Still, I think the empire regained stability that quickly thanks to his quick understanding of the situation.”
“He sent a thought to me who was far away in a foreign land. Subdue the leader of the land wherever he is.”
“…It’s a hard-line policy uncharacteristic of him. “There’s nothing I can do about the situation.”
The royal palace of the one and only empire.
Einfried and Sonia walked down the wide, golden-carpeted hallway and talked about important things.
Sonia learned everything Einfried had experienced in Korea during these few hours.
“…It means that we will have another decisive battle at this time tomorrow.”
And after hearing Daesung’s decisive declaration, Sonia’s expression hardened.
Soon, I walked to the end of the hallway and reached the palace terrace connected to the outside.
“Look at this, Ain.”
“It’s empty. The air is also cloudy.”
“This is where we will make our new home. “If you think about it that way, it’s really…”
Sonia trailed off slightly, trying to shake off her depression and stretch her legs.
Like a girl taking a walk in the sun.
“Isn’t it really beautiful?”
The state of New Mexico, which overlaps with the central continent of Plomaria, looked devastated, as if it had retreated for half a century.
The steel frame of the building mixed with the forest was exposed and looked as if it would collapse at any moment, and
burnt corpses were piled up on the asphalt-covered streets.
“When I told them that I would place this land under our jurisdiction from now on, they rushed at me as if they were going to kill me.”
“Is that the case here too? The place I was at was the same. “Everyone seemed unconvinced.”
“Why can’t the people of this world understand our meaning? “They say we will protect them because they are weak.”
“It’s because I’m weak. Weak people are usually stupid. “There’s no need for us to lead those guys.”
They may not know it, but
the United States, to which New Mexico belongs, had already recently experienced a large-scale gate fracture incident and suffered serious damage.
In a situation where all defense systems are paralyzed, what can we do when the only empire has invaded?
No matter how hard the Hunters’ Association and the government tried, they did not have the talent to withstand the Rando, a fighting race that manipulated magic.
In the end, in just two hours, New Mexico was occupied by the Yuan Empire.
Sonia said in a sad voice.
“…It’s going to be okay, right? “We’ll be able to win the final battle tomorrow, right?”
“….”
Einfried did not answer that question because he was thinking about something else for a moment.
As Sonia looked back at him with a puzzled look in her eyes, Einfried placed his hand on her shoulder and said,
“Sonia, listen to me carefully.”
***
-If other guys don’t know, he’s different. That guy… is strong enough to kill Sizef and my soldiers without even getting hurt. If it were an army led directly by that guy, we probably wouldn’t be able to guarantee victory.
-What do you want to say?
-If you go all the way north from here, you will reach Count Hatok. Tomorrow morning, just secretly leave there. The empire is still in disarray, so there’s no need to worry about getting caught.
-what? Are you telling me to run away now?
-I’m not telling you to run away. If we fail… you, at least, survive and convince Count Hathok. And repay our revenge.
-The war hasn’t even started yet and you’re already saying that? That’s not like you, Ain.
-Excluding His Majesty, you are the only Rando who can hear the voice of God Hild. But if something happens to you too, who will the people trust and rely on then?
-….
-This is a decision made not only for the empire, but for the entire Plomaria continent. Please understand, Sonia.
-…okay.
After that, some unimportant small talk continued, perhaps to change the mood.
Daeseong glanced near his shoulder. There was a spirit flying around there.
The identity of this spirit, which has a strange appearance with a round body with only a mouth and wings, is the spirit of sound, ‘Gon’.
As with none other than Aku, the spirit of freezing, Daeseong was a spirit whose summoning ticket was purchased for free at the store window.
《Spirit Summoning: Gon of Sound Wave》
* Temporarily summons the sound spirit ‘Gon’.
* The summoned ‘Gon’ will listen to the voice of the desired target to the buyer regardless of race or distance.
* Breathe the breath of ‘Gon’ into the person you want to hear.
* If the target dies or 5 days pass, the sound disappears.
* Once purchased, the ‘Spirit Summon’ item cannot be purchased again.
When Einfried lost consciousness in the Blue House office, Daesung breathed Gon’s breath into his ear.
Thanks to this, I was able to hear everything Einfried was saying.
It was a device that was planted to get the job done perfectly, but some pretty bad information came into the hands.
“It’s the County of Hatok…”
You can find out the location of the County just by looking at the ‘map’ with Insight.
She said she would leave for the county early morning tomorrow, so there were only a few hours left.
‘I guess I’ll have to start preparing now.’
Even though Daesung had ample opportunity to kill Einfried, he did not do so.
A decision he would never have made on a normal day, such as sending the enemy alive.
But it had to be that way.
‘We need to keep Einfried alive to prepare for the next two days.’
Einfried, because he is an important key to the strength of humanity.
In many ways.
