Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 136

Qua-ang!
In the air, the black dead soul and the white spirit body became entangled.
A wild dog fight broke out.
In reality, Daesung is only relaxed because he did not directly participate in the bloody battle.
I just folded my arms and watched their fight with interest.
‘The dead soul is a little more inferior.’
To put it simply, the head-to-head confrontation between the dead soul and the spirit body could be said to be a fight between a swarm of bees and a person.
A swarm of bees is also formidable, but it is difficult to imagine a human being being wiped out by a swarm of bees.
If things continued like this, it was easy to predict that the spirit body would overwhelm the dead souls.
“hmm?”
However, immediately afterward, Daesung’s predictions were slightly different.
bang-!
Several ghosts who were fighting with the spirits exploded to death.
Explosions occurred in several places and engulfed dozens of spiritual bodies.
“I thought you could do something like that.”
I thought the only thing I could do was jump out and bite like a mad dog.
bang-! bang-! bang-!
The dead souls, who seemed to be on the defensive, burst into life and performed the Donggui portrait as if they could not just die like this.
Just as a dead soul can attack a spiritual body, a spiritual body can also attack a dead soul.
In other words, from the perspective of a dead soul, the spirit body in front of you is a very difficult enemy.
Until now, we had only dealt with enemies that did not require self-destruction, but now the situation is different.
“These guys! “Are you out of your mind?”
“Split up and deal with these guys! “If we stick together, we’ll all get caught up in the explosion!”
“More than that, how can we deal with those who destroy themselves?”
The spirits were also confused.
When I was told to spread out and deal with him, I hurriedly widened the distance, but
Kwajik-!
“Kwaaagh! “You damn bastards!”
These were not dead souls who would let them do whatever they wanted.
The dead spirits clung tenaciously to the spirit body, panting and gnashing their teeth.
The moment the card called the suicide tactic was revealed, the situation turned.
‘We need to press harder.’
Right now, it just seems like a bunch of crazy dogs were unleashed on the field.
do not do that. To get an obedient answer from them, it was necessary to treat them much more harshly.
Stop resisting and start thinking that dialogue is the only way to go!
Daesung gave a brief command.
“Destroy this place.”
Hyaaaaa-!
Even in the midst of a dog fight, the ghosts understood the words like ghosts.
Destroy everything here.
What this means is that you should stop playing around with spirits and start making more of a mess.
Daesung spoke in more detail.
“It is self-destruction. “Explode your body and turn this place into an inferno.”
Suicidal assault.
If it were a human, it would of course be disobeyed, but…
Hyaaa!
They were dead spirits, not humans.
Those who are loyal to the Absolute even in death!
Whiiing!
Rather, they excitedly threw themselves to the ground as if they had reached a glorious moment.
bang-! Quagwagwang-!!
Heavy drinking continued in all directions where the dead souls were in contact with the ground.
Black flames and smoke erupted.
“stop! stop! “You crazy people!”
“Are you planning to destroy the world?”
“no! It’s not as good as the North Library! Without that, our achievements would be…!”
The spirit Hekar tribe, who saw the ghosts exploding from all directions, was horrified with a look of disgust on their faces.
Is that how the Romans of ancient Pompeii reacted when faced with a volcanic eruption?
Either way, dozens or hundreds of dead souls turned into bombs and fell to the ground.
“Ah, how can I do this… Ah! “That guy!”
“I am a human! “Dead spirits are pouring out from behind that guy’s back!”
“Kill that guy! Then the vortex will naturally close!”
Unable to find a way out of the merciless baptism of self-destruction, the spirits changed their strategy.
It seemed like he thought that if he killed Daeseong, the vortex pouring out the dead souls would close on its own.
It is not a wrong decision.
“Eryophwa Great Sword.”
It’s just a more difficult path.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!!
A flaming sword appeared above Daesung’s outstretched hand.
At the same time, countless spiritual bodies rushed towards only one Daeseong.
It is a sword containing a fragment of the origin.
It has the power to cut down even the ‘source’ itself.
But how could they not cut down those white, flour-like spirit bodies?
[The first special skill of the ‘Incendiary’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Rage >]
[The incendiary greatsword is equipped with the ‘Fragment of Origin’. All special skills evolve by one level.]
[< Rage > → < Great Anger >]
The swung sword draws a line in the air
and kuaaaa-!!
The thin line becomes a wide surface, pouring out waves of fire.
However, the shape of the waves depicted in < Fury > was a bit different from before.
‘The devil’s face.’
It’s not a wave.
A demon with bright blood-red face and horns opened its mouth wide and tried to devour everything.
The skill < Rage >, which is a further evolution of < Rage >, literally embodies the devil’s anger.
“…?!”
When I came to my senses, the spirits realized that they had entered the devil’s mouth and were startled.
But it was already too late.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrva!
The moment the devil closed his mouth, the spirits burned up and disappeared without a trace.
That’s not all.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-.
As a result of closing the mouth, a fierce and hot wind erupted, tearing even the spirits outside the range.
“….”
The spirits that managed to not die completely lost their will to fight.
The defeat was complete.
Grumbling-. Crack-.
bang-! bang-!
Sparks flew across the world.
As if they would not allow silence, the dead spirits continued to burn their bodies and hit the ground.
In the middle of all this chaos,
a white devil holding a fiery sword stood tall.
“I asked if any of you knew how to reach the source.”
***
“No?”
The Hekar tribe was not foolish enough to continue fighting when they were sure they would lose.
In the end, they gave in and obediently set up a place for dialogue.
However, the answer that came back was extremely disappointing to Daesung.
The old man from the Hekar tribe, who saw the eyebrows arching upward and the wrinkles between the eyebrows, hurriedly waved his hand.
“We don’t even know what ‘how to get to the source’ means! But the Great Sage may know the answer you are looking for!”
“Great Sage…”
Daesung opened the system and checked the dimensional information of ‘Hekar’.
[Integrated dimension information: Hekkar]
– A dimension where the Hekkar tribe, who fanatically explore the ‘black magic path’, gather.
– Possesses the technical ability to freely move between this world and the world.
– The great sage ‘Melcanon’ is ruling.
A name is fine. What is important is the nickname ‘Great Sage’.
Even those who delve deeper into the realm of witchcraft than any other race are revered as ‘wise men’, so they must not know how to reach the source.
There was also speculation that perhaps it was the great sage Melcanon who manufactured the ‘Hekar Vision’.
“But does the fact that there is no one to answer my question mean that the great sage is away?”
“….”
The old man who faced Daesung pursed his lips and made a sad expression.
“The great sage did not leave his seat… but was captured.”
“To whom?”
“They are the Kishin tribe.”
Gishin tribe.
The moment those words came out of the old man’s mouth, the surroundings became chaotic.
Some people sighed, while others gritted their teeth furiously.
For the Hekar tribe, it is obvious that the Kishin tribe is the enemy of Cheolcheon who kidnapped the ruler.
In that case, the old man in front of me seemed to be an agent who would temporarily fill Melcanon’s void.
However, there was one thing I did not understand.
‘In Ramish’s memories, the Hekar tribe and the Gishin tribe did not seem to be particularly enemies.’
Even though he had a common enemy called ‘Heaven’, he would not have thoughtlessly joined hands with the enemies who kidnapped the ruler.
Rather, there was no content related to that part in Ramish’s memory.
‘So this is what happened after the frozen time ended?’
However, this was also strange.
Less than half a day had passed since the second cataclysm broke out.
But within this short period of time, the Gishin tribe attacks the Hekar tribe and kidnaps the ruler?
Realistically, I couldn’t understand it.
“The Gishin tribe have the power to control time.”
“…controlling time?”
“As soon as we arrived on this land, we were immediately attacked by them. This place… it was only a moment for the blue planet, but for us it was like hell that lasted for three long days.”
“Tell me more.”
“The one who leads them… I don’t know if he is the king of the Gishin tribe, but either way, the moment the flash of light shines in his eyes, each second stretches out infinitely. And we slowed down, as if our bodies had become rigid in the stretched time. “Only the Gisin tribe showed freedom of movement even during the extended time.”
Certainly, if it was the power to control time, it was understandable that Melcanon would be captured by the enemy in such a short period of time.
In terms of ‘circumstances’, that is.
The power to control time.
‘Even the Demon God could not escape the bonds of time.’
Control time. It is an ability with the absurd meaning of being able to overcome even the limitations of mortality.
Even the demons who reigned in hell were not immortal. If he had the power to manipulate time, Daeseong would never have won the battle against the demon god.
Didn’t even the heavenly apostles pay a huge price called ‘dimensional error’ to turn back time?
‘If you had that kind of power in the first place, you wouldn’t have lost the war with Heaven, right?’
It was a story that even Daesung had no idea about.
But then he clicked his tongue and shook his head. I just shook off any complicated thoughts.
I didn’t want to wrap my head around a question that I couldn’t find the answer to even if I thought about it alone.
For now, it is much wiser to focus on the situation at hand.
“Do you know why they took your ruler away?”
“I don’t know. As I said before, everything happened in an instant. “When time was restored to its original state, the surrounding area was a mess and the Great Sage had already been captured.”
Only then was Daesung able to understand what the man on the rock meant by losing his balance.
The center meant a great sage, and the Hekar tribe, having lost their leader, hid in the world for a while.
All of this happened over three days, but for an external being like Daesung, it was a short period of time, less than half a day.
“The knowledge that the Great Sage shares will be of strength to all of us. “Without Him, we are just scarecrows with only a few tricks up our sleeves.”
“Is that why you hid in the world?”
“There was no way.”
The old man bowed his head. You will feel disgusted and resentful of yourself for being helpless.
Of course, no matter what circumstances they had, it was none of Daesung’s business.
What’s important is that in order to achieve your goal, you must rescue Great Sage Melcanon, who has been kidnapped by the Gishin tribe.
Melcanon Without him, how to reach the source will continue to be a mystery.
“I will save your ruler.”
Daesung stood up, straightened his knees, and spoke.
Not only the old man but also the surrounding Hekar tribe opened their eyes in surprise.
“You’re saving me… “That one?”
“Then who is doing it if not me?”
“Ha, but they are the Gishin tribe. They control time! “Formidable-.”
“It’s these two things you need to worry about, not my life.”
Daesung stretched out his index finger.
“One is if the Great Sage had already lost his life when I got there.”
Next, the middle finger was extended.
“The other thing is if even the great sage I rescued with great difficulty cannot answer my question.”
“…What if either of those two apply?”
“You will become the target of my anger. “You will find out then who is more vicious, me or the Kishin tribe.”
“….”
Normally, they would have been enraged upon hearing that, but they had already witnessed Daesung’s true face.
So I just kept my mouth shut and nodded.
***
“Take this child away.”
After finishing the conversation and about to return to the present world, the old man added this.
What he presented was a very young Hekar boy.
Daesung frowned when he saw the child. He then glared at the old man with a scolding look, asking if he was entrusting a load of luggage to him.
“This kid is particularly interested in the Gishin tribe. From the time I learned how to write, I only delved into the providence and knowledge of the Gishin tribe. “When it comes to the Gishin tribe, most adults probably don’t know any better than this guy.”
“In other words, since it will be helpful in many ways, you want me to bring this guy with you?”
“If you know them well, you don’t need to…”
I don’t know.
I just found out that they can control time.
Of course, there may be a bigger secret hidden than this.
At this time, the Hekar boy wriggled his hands and spoke carefully.
“…I won’t cause you any inconvenience. Really. “Hey, I can make a promise.”
“….”
Daesung stared into the boy’s eyes.
Fear in the eyes. But the brighter and greater light of curiosity was diluting that fear.
The boy must have clearly seen Daesung running wild just now.
Still, he is begging to be taken away.
Because curiosity pushed out fear.
Curiosity about the Gishin tribe!
An unrivaled opportunity to enter their world and explore their knowledge firsthand.
If you think about it that way, for the boy, Daesung may actually be a protector who will protect his life.
Of course,
“I have no intention of claiming to be your protector. Even if you are in crisis, I will pretend not to notice. Also, if you continue to be an obstacle, I will kill you without mercy.”
“….”
“If you are in danger, don’t think about relying on me, just survive on your own. There is no use crying and crying next to you. If you really want to receive my protection, prove your worth. “If it helps, I will also actively protect you.”
“….”
“If you understand what I said, you can follow me.”
The vitriol continued, as if it went beyond a dagger and struck with a whip.
The boy became tearful.
Even the old man who brought the boy was so dispirited that his complexion became pale.
Eventually the boy answered.
“I understand. So, can I follow you?”
The old man was startled and glanced at the boy’s back.
The boy was on the verge of shedding a single tear, but in the end he didn’t.
This is because I thought that if I showed weakness here, this could also be seen as a ‘nuisance’ in Daesung’s eyes.
“….”
As of now, it is unknown whether this is bravado born from a young child or courage based on the conviction that it can be of real help.
But it was well worth finding out.
If it helps, it’s good, but if it doesn’t, just kill it like I warned you.
Daesung quietly turned around without saying anything more.
The boy followed him with nervous steps.
“Oh wait! One more thing….”
“….”
“Huh, heo….”
A terrifying look was fixed on the old man’s face.
Are you kidding?
As I kept trying to leave, I was caught and the desire to kill, regardless of the purpose, surged in me.
at that time.
The old man suddenly offered to shake my hand with trembling hands.
Before Daesung could further misunderstand, the old man spoke in a huff.
“Woo woo we can pass on Hekar’s secret arts to others through hand-to-hand contact.”
“What secret art is it?”
“It is the perfect form of self-immolation. In addition to extending the time, the Gishin tribe suppresses the enemy with a large offensive attack. I think it will definitely be helpful if you take this with you.”
“….”
Daesung first grabbed the old man’s hand.
Then, I felt a similar feeling as when I acquired the power slowly building up in my body.
Soon the system occurred to me and I thought,
‘My anger is subsiding.’
After checking the words, Daesung was barely able to suppress his feelings of sadness.
