Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 143

“Hmm.”
“Why are you doing this? “Would you like some warm tea before we go to the spring?”
“no. “It’s just that the phlegm suddenly boiled up.”
“Please be patient when spitting on the ground haha.”
After laughing lightly, Melcanon smiled faintly.
“…I felt a little depressed when I told him about my son who died, but I think he got better. “I’m sorry that I’m the only one talking about this depressing story when it’s not something you’re really interested in.”
“never mind.”
Daesung took his gaze away from Melcanon’s grinning smile and folded up the Akashic Records.
Then Melcanon opened his mouth with a hint of interest in his eyes.
“How… I don’t know if my finished work might have been of some help.”
“It was useful.”
“Then this time, as a small thank you, can you tell me what was written in the Akashic Records? haha.”
“Stop wasting time and quickly go to the ‘Fountain of the Dead.’”
“Hehe, yes. It was just a joke. let’s go. “I will guide you.”
Even if he were a great sage, couldn’t he see everything clearly?
Melcanon seemed to have no idea that the enemy who killed his only son was right next to him.
However, Daesung did not feel any remorse.
Of course, when I first checked the facts, I cleared my throat without realizing it. But that’s it.
If Daesung had felt any remorse, he would have immediately failed to manage his facial expressions, as he has no expertise in acting.
But now his face was so calm and grave.
This is because no emotion other than surprise passed through my mind.
‘There’s a risk of things going wrong, so it would be better to just keep this fact hidden.’
Daeseong followed behind Melcanon, creating a calm atmosphere.
At first it was just a yellow land, but the floating world became more and more dark as it went deeper into the depths.
It’s like falling from normal sea level into the deep sea.
At some point, you can’t even see the ground your feet are standing on.
It was a time when I was walking silently through a dreamlike abyss.
“Here we go. “It is the deepest part of the world that only I and my son know.”
Melcanon, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped walking and pointed in the front direction.
There, a very bright crimson drop of blood appeared.
The blood droplet is large enough to easily cover an adult male.
The sight of a single drop of blood floating in the center of all directions was pitch black, was both bizarre and dreamlike.
“Inside here is the ‘fountain of all things.’”
“Can I just go in?”
“yes. “If you place your hand on a drop of blood, your whole body will naturally be sucked into it.”
Now that he knew the method, without delay, Daesung approached the blood drop.
Just as he was about to extend his hand, Melcanon asked in surprise.
“Are you really going to go in alone? “Wasn’t I going in too?”
“I’m going alone.”
“Well, if you’re going to do that… Instead, you should clearly remember Sam’s words. “That way I can receive it and decipher it.”
“Sure.”
But that won’t happen.
Because, needless to say, Daesung was planning to interpret what the ‘Fountain of Creation’ said on his own.
And in order for things to be resolved properly, Melcanon must never follow.
The moment Daesung’s palm gently pressed the drop of blood.
[You have entered the ‘Fountain of Creation’.
[Maximum number of admissions per month achieved. You can re-enter after 30 days.]
[‘Fountain’s Verse’ has been updated.]
A brilliant crystal cave was already spread out nearby.
Knock-.
I could hear the sound of dew falling from the ceiling hitting the surface of the water and creating gentle ripples.
When I looked down, I could see that the spring had accumulated in a narrow puddle.
[‘The Fountain of All Things’ is always ready to provide guests with the power to go to the source.] [
Please read the verses conveyed by ‘The Fountain of All Things’ aloud. This is a spell that summons a divine object that guides
you to the source of the dimension.] [If you are ready to hear ‘Fountain’s Verse’, please say it at any time.]
After looking through the text of the system, Daeseong went straight to < The Book > > was summoned.
No matter how much I thought about it, this was the only ‘book containing all the magic my son created’ that Melcanon had just mentioned.
If Melcanon had seen the ancient book floating in Daeseong’s palm, he would have been furious and run wild.
‘If there was a spell that could interpret all languages, this would be it.’
When I recently visited China in connection with Moon Se-geol, the power that allowed me to have a smooth conversation with the local association president without an interpreter.
< Power Information >
Communication
[Unifies the languages of beings within a 300m radius.]
The time has come to use this again.
Daesung spoke after temporarily acquiring the power of < Communication >.
“I’m ready.”
-I fought alone, but in the end, no one remembered me.
“….”
As soon as I said I was ready, a clear echo pierced my ears.
Just like the origin of the Earth, it is a voiceless voice that is ambiguous on either the female or male side.
I wondered if there were more passages, but after this there was only silence.
“I fought alone, but in the end, no one remembered me.”
I read it as the system said.
It doesn’t really matter, but it’s not a phrase I really like. This is because the sentence was full of regret.
Could it be a prophecy?
No, no such thing was said at all, so the possibility was small.
[The ‘Verse of the Fountain’ was read perfectly.]
[A divine object leading to the ‘source of dimension’ is created.]
The sound of the water shaking was heard.
As I looked towards the pool, I saw a small wooden doll swimming hurriedly on the surface of the water.
It doesn’t look much different from the Hekar Vision I saw before. The difference is that it can somehow move on its own.
Daesung walked closer to the puddle, leaned down, and placed his palms on the ground.
Then, as if it had found a rope, the wooden doll hurriedly crawled up onto Daesung’s palm.
As expected, the system was friendly and provided detailed explanations.
[Item Information]
Name: Life Predator
Category: ???
‘A small guide who keeps a single path connected to the origin of the dimension.’
‘There are two ways for the Life Devourer to open a path connected to the source.’
* Giving 1000 lifestones each. However, in this case, entry is random.
* If you want to enter the source of a specific dimension, you must feed the life of the person who controls that dimension.
The black eyes, like those of a wooden doll, glanced up at Daesung.
For a guy who couldn’t even get out of a shallow spring on his own, he had a grand name.
“If I feed you the lives of rulers, you will guide me to the source…”
The wooden doll nodded.
When asked for a fairly high price for the food, Daesung burst into laughter.
The lives of rulers.
For reference, one of the lists of sources from which Daeseong must obtain fragments is -.
‘It was included here too.’
There was also Hekar.
And the ruler of Hekkar was the great sage Melcanon.
yes-.
An exit was created on one wall of the cave, with a blurry view of the outside.
Daesung glanced at Melcanon standing tall beyond him and rubbed his chin.
‘Things are going strangely.’
***
“No way, that thing is in my hand….”
Melcanon, who saw the doll in Daesung’s hand, found it difficult to continue speaking.
The new objects provided by Sam usually have a shape similar to a doll.
In other words, the implications of the fact that Daesung was holding that doll were obvious.
“Are you sure you deciphered Sam’s verse correctly?”
“uh.”
“This is ridiculous! “How on earth-.”
“There was no way.”
Daesung placed the Life Devourer into the subspace opened at the back of his belt.
Then, naturally, Melcanon’s gaze also turned towards Daesung’s waist.
So he did not see the sword falling on his head.
bang-!
It was a blow swung with the intention of leaving no room for even a word.
However, the Fire Flower Greatsword had to only hit the ground meaninglessly.
Melcanon, who had retreated quite a bit in this short period of time, let out a cold voice.
“…What are you doing?”
“Let me tell you a regrettable story. “Only by killing you can I achieve my goal.”
“Does that doll have to eat my life to open the way to the source?”
“You know me well.”
“I thought about it once, and it seems like it was the right answer, because Hekar’s vision is similar. Well, I didn’t get to use it in the end, but…”
Daesung, who had no intention of having a long conversation, pulled the knife out from deep in the ground and was about to step on Jin-gak.
Melcanon spoke first.
“To be honest, I’m really angry, but I won’t blame you. Anyway, thanks to you, I was able to return to Hekkar’s side.”
Sze-.
Melcanon suddenly raised his hand and touched his index and middle fingers.
“Do you see it? If I just snap these fingers, you will be forcibly expelled from the realm.”
“You could perform such magic, but were you kidnapped by the Gishin tribe?”
“Because they took their time playing without even having time to snap their fingers.”
“but. “Once I got hit, I couldn’t even move.”
Sigh-! Daesung placed his sword vertically on the ground for a moment.
“If you banish me now, I will somehow come back here.”
“Then just send it out again then and that’s it.”
“Why don’t you just kill me right here instead of leaving any unnecessary consequences?”
“I will watch it up to three times. “After the fourth time, I will kill you.”
“I can’t afford to wait for your mercy to end.”
“My heart will not change.”
know. No matter how much I say this, it’s difficult to change Melcanon’s mind.
But Daesung already had something that would switch him off.
Slurp-.
< The Book > appeared in Daesung’s palm, which was turned toward the sky.
That moment.
Melcanon, who clearly saw the shape of the ancient book, became meditative.
And his narrowed eyes opened wide enough to reach his forehead.
“what-.”
“Did I ask you earlier how you deciphered Sam’s passage right away? “This is my answer.”
“That…”
“As I heard, your son was amazing. “After using one of the spells written here, Sam’s phrases sounded as easy and clear as if they were spoken by a human being.”
Melcanon’s neck moved. The inside is probably boiling with anger and shock right now.
The two eyes, repeatedly going out of focus and back, stared alternately at Daesung and < The Book >. But Daesung didn’t care and said this.
“I killed your son.”
“….”
“Snap your fingers. “If you want to gently send back the enemy who killed your son right before your eyes.”
Tears finally flowed from my bloodshot eyes, and their color was red.
Melcanon asked briefly, with the corners of his mouth quivering and seeming to exert all his strength.
“Why why…?”
“That guy invaded the world I live in. Are you done?”
bang-!
As soon as he pulled out the fireworks sword that was stuck next to him, he rushed towards the ground.
Unless Melcanon was an idiot, there was no way he would snap his fingers.
Rather, I was unable to respond.
Phew!!
Isn’t it so easy that the Fire Flame Greatsword pierced Melcanon’s chest?
“….”
Melcanon’s face, drenched in thick bloody tears, turned to Daesung.
The man was pierced through the chest by a sword and glared at the enemy who had killed his son.
Eyes shining with cool resentment.
Facing each other proudly, Daeseong exploded the flames of his greatsword once more, attempting to explode the guy’s entire body.
-Just right!
Unless Melcanon unknowingly snapped his fingers.
“what?”
Even Daesung never expected that it would come out like that here.
I was a little surprised for a moment.
“….”
In the blink of an eye, Daesung was standing on a pedestrian path in a small town.
Whiiing!
As the cold, white snow hit my face, my already uncomfortable feeling burned with even more anger.
‘There’s no way he snapped his fingers because he was scared to death.’
Daesung recalled the expression on Melcanon’s face as he glared at him, shedding bloody tears.
That was not the look in the eyes of a fool who was hissing at the enemy who killed his son.
Daesung was probably expelled from the world because he was plotting a scheme.
Daesung looked around.
‘Where am I?’
First of all, although it was Earth and not the world, the snow was blowing fiercely.
No, what does it matter where it is? What we need to do now is to find the ‘guides’ scattered throughout the place and return to the world.
Just as Daesung was about to look at the map.
[Detect a change in the situation! < Level Information > of the ‘Akashic Records’ has been updated.]
[Detecting a change in the situation! < Intermediate Information > of ‘Akashic Records’ has been updated.]
Suddenly, a system notification came to mind.
After checking, it appears that there has been some change in the existing information written in the Akashic Records.
Of course, I haven’t read the existing ‘low-level information’ and ‘intermediate information’, so I don’t know what the changes are.
In any case, it is a function that was not experienced during the time of the Void Rok. Although it may be a bit of a saying in the current situation, it was worth it for Melcanon to use his strength for Daesung.
‘The fact that the content has changed in response to changes in the situation probably means that there is room for help to me now.’
Daesung stopped looking at the map and immediately opened the Akashic Records.
First, I checked the [low-level information].
[Low level information]
「Melcanon, enraged after discovering its enemy, seeks out the user first.」 「
Melcanon, which has transformed into a grotesque form, is extremely barbaric and violent, unlike its original form, so be careful.」 「If you come face to face with Melcanon,
immediately kill Melcanon . If you don’t kill him, great direct damage will occur to the user.
I didn’t expect much since I was a low-level person, but it was quite helpful information.
Since they say they will come to you first, there is no need to go through the hassle of looking for a guide.
‘There doesn’t seem to be anyone around that is popular.’
If it were a big city with lots of people, I would have hesitated, but since it wasn’t, it didn’t matter.
[Low-level information] is so neat, but how many useful stories are written in [Intermediate-level information]?
It may be written about Melcanon’s weakness, which is said to have transformed into a grotesque form.
Soon Daesung opened [Intermediate Information].
[Intermediate Information]
“Titans and dragons are fighting over a territory 30km to the west.” “
Most of the population of Ussuriisk, Russia, is caught up in the fight between titans and dragons and is being detained.”
Daesung frowned. I frowned.
No matter how much I read, I couldn’t understand why this was rated ‘intermediate’.
If we only consider the importance that can be inferred from the content, isn’t it even ‘low level’?
‘what.’
The snowfall became increasingly heavier.
For now, all I can do is wait for Melcanon to reappear in front of me.
It must have been about 30 minutes since I stood there without moving.
[‘The door to the world’ has been forcibly opened.]
[A monster filled with demonic nature has descended on the ground.] [
If the monster is not eliminated within the given time limit, the runaway world will become entangled with the real world. It works.]
Kugugu-.
The pure white sleet that was flying around like crazy turned black.
And suddenly they started to gather in one direction and form a circle.
Just like that, a black and large pit appeared in the air
.
An unpleasant sound, like an animal on the verge of death screaming and writhing in pain, echoed from beyond.
widely-!
Soon, a rotten hand was firmly touching the edge of the pit.
“….”
What does Melcanon look like right now to hear that sound and see those hands?
Daesung, who couldn’t imagine well, groped for the bracelet-shaped panacea.
