Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 176
# 176
176
As long as the Life Devourer finished his meal, Daesung could leave the ‘Road of Origin’ whenever he wanted.
But what is this?
Suddenly, a life devourer devoured Daesung, and before he knew it, he was floating in the vast ocean of darkness.
‘To Earth.’
It was a familiar pressure and a familiar feeling of floating because I had already experienced it once.
Daesung immediately realized that the identity of the person the system said was desperately looking for him was the ‘origin of the Earth.’
Just as Daesung was about to ask her a question, suddenly asking for what purpose she was kidnapped.
[Earth gmkf-rknf is absolute&!$!%]
[Complaining of pain#[email protected]%-doing935!]
[Shut down the system-.]
Suddenly, the system started to be covered with strings of unknown meaning. .
As if there was a data error.
Daesung’s eyes shook as he witnessed an unprecedented situation.
“What the hell is this…”
< You have no shame. >
A neutral voice echoed from all directions in the vast ocean.
It was the voice of the ‘source of the Earth’.
The voice was not as relaxed and full of laughter as before.
Heavy breathing and moaning were heard intermittently, like a person with a bad cold.
Daesung, sensing an ominous feeling, frowned and asked.
“You have no shame. What does that mean all of a sudden?”
< I couldn't stop it. As for 'it'... I should have done whatever it takes to prevent 'it' from setting foot on this planet...! >
“Calm down. “When you get excited, it affects me.”
A drop of cold sweat ran down one of Daesung’s frowning eyebrows.
I felt pressure from all directions, as if my bones would be crushed at any moment.
This is the embrace of the source. The pain felt by the source of the earth could not help but be clearly felt by Daesung.
“You couldn’t stop it? “It means you couldn’t stop it.”
< I don’t know exactly what ‘it’ is either. However, it is very large and powerful and, ah... I don't know. I don't know. Even I, the source, have never seen anything like that! >
“…This wasn’t written in the Akashic Records.”
< Because it is a being that has not even recorded the treasure trove of knowledge that encompasses all things and time! > Is
such a thing possible?
A being that transcends even the ‘Akashic Records’, which record the cause and effect of space and time.
I can’t even imagine.
And I don’t even know why something like that came out of nowhere at this kind of timing.
Surely the highest level would have disappeared, and Heaven would also have definitely been destroyed. “…
No
.”
The enemy he faced. And the enemy you will have to fight against in the future.
In Daesung’s mind, he came up with a list of them and was erasing them one by one.
“Maybe he could be….”
Only one candidate remained.
***
“Where have you gone all of a sudden?”
Nebia, who had been looking for Daesung for a long time, muttered in frustration.
The sky of the outside world was already filled with a deep sunset.
A festival was scheduled to be held at the New Mexico estate in a few hours.
It was none other than a festival wishing for successful harmony between humanity and different races.
Needless to say, the main figure of the festival was Daeseong, but for some reason, no matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t see him.
“Once you try the special dishes prepared by first-class chefs, you will feel like trusting us…” “
From what I heard, the majority of humans prefer meat. I wonder if he will like the elf food culture, which only consists of vegetarian food…” “
Uh-huh. Don’t be rash, Lieutenant. Isn’t there a proverb like this on Earth? “You have to know how long and short it is.”
Nevia said, tapping her elbow on the side of the lieutenant guarding her.
No matter how much I looked around the area, I couldn’t see Daesung.
“It looks like he disappeared for a while. “Please return soon, queen.”
“I will do it.”
Nebia, along with her adjutant, returned to the center of the territory where reconstruction work was in full swing.
And
the bloody land was there.
“….”
“….”
Nebia and the adjutant were speechless.
The people who were smiling and chatting normally when I went to look for Daesung were now cold corpses lying on the ground.
< You're tough and corrupt. >
Kwajik-!
And in the midst of the horrendous chaos, a woman without any clothes on was chewing on a piece of red-hot raw meat.
The sight of a very attractive beauty with long, waist-length blonde hair with blood smeared around her mouth was truly grotesque.
“…!”
Nevia and the adjutant were able to find out the identity of that piece of meat without difficulty.
Human flesh.
At the woman’s feet was a human corpse with a piece of the chest torn out.
Tsk-.
While Nebia and the adjutant were speechless, the woman roughly spat out the human flesh she had been chewing.
< While there are races with weak qualities, there are also races with inherently strong qualities... >
Zek-.
The woman wiped away the fresh blood from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.
< The taste of their meat is uniform. It’s not fun. >
The woman let out a light sigh and her eyes turned to Nevia.
A cold gaze that feels like your bones are freezing.
The adjutant hurriedly blocked Nevia’s path and shouted.
“Avoid now, Queen!”
“aide…?!”
Ugh-!
A halo of light converged around the adjutant’s wide open hand, and soon a bow appeared.
After summoning an arrow in the same way, the adjutant pulled the string taut and asked:
“Who are you! Who dares do this…!”
Perhaps because my emotions were so intense, I could not speak properly.
Only then did Nebia and the adjutant begin to realize that this situation was real.
A reality that is no different from a nightmare in which one’s own people have been exterminated.
< .... >
The woman took a step forward with a grumpy face like a portrait.
It is not a step toward becoming a lieutenant.
He didn’t even glance at the adjutant, as if he had listened to his words.
The woman who was just moving leisurely stopped at the corpse of an elf.
What are you trying to do?
At that time, the hand of the deputy pulling the string began to gradually tremble.
Kwasik-!
The woman easily ripped off the elf’s shoulder with one hand.
Looking at the flesh dripping with vivid drops of blood, the woman licked her lips with her tongue and said.
< It’s been a while since I had elf meat. >
“…!”
The adjutant’s patience had reached its limit.
Pa-ang!
The moment his hand let go of the bowstring, an arrow made of light flew towards the woman at incredible speed.
Just before the arrow, engulfed in heat that even dried up the air, hit the woman’s head.
< Did you plan to brighten the mood? >
Suddenly, numerous butterflies flew by the woman.
A butterfly out of nowhere?
The adjutant and Nevia couldn’t believe what they saw.
If the two eyes are not wrong, the arrow the adjutant just fired turned into a butterfly and scattered.
< Thank you so much. >
The woman with her clasped hands behind her waist smiled brightly.
Butterflies with beautiful patterns gathered above her head.
< This is my return gift. I hope you don’t feel upset. >
Haaaaaaaaaaa!
The butterflies instantly turned into dozens of spears and flew towards the adjutant.
At a speed that cannot even be compared to when the arrow flew.
Kwasik-! Kwasik-! Kwasik-!
The adjutant’s entire body was pierced by countless spears in the blink of an eye.
“aide-!!”
Nebia, furious, summoned the jeweled Flamberge and rushed towards the woman.
Lightning-like movements that are far beyond those of Earth’s S-class hunters.
With a scream filled with wrath, Nevia swung Flamberge.
< I guess I should save one. >
Crispy!
Flamberge’s blade turned into a leaf and crumbled to nothing.
For a moment, Nevia’s eyes were also filled with shock and despair.
Sigh-!
The woman’s white hand violently grabbed Nevia’s neck.
< You'll need toys to play with until that guy comes. >
“You… who…”
Nevia glared at the woman with wide eyes.
Of course, there was no answer to the question who the woman was.
It looks like he’s just thinking about how to have fun playing with Nevia.
My feet fluttered in the air.
“Ugh…! Why why… do they do this in our land…!”
< It’s our land? I can’t hear that much. >
“…?!”
At that very moment, Nebia’s vision became distant.
I just applied a little more force.
The woman only applied that much force to her hand, but Nevia felt as if she was suffocating at any moment.
< This is my land. You are nothing more than pests crawling around every corner of the house. Do you understand what I mean? >
Nevia’s consciousness was already on the verge of fading before she could answer that question.
But some kind of instinct made her move her hands.
Nevia’s sinewy hand grabbed the woman’s arm.
Nevia struggled to speak even in pain that was suffocating.
“Members of the Dimensional Alliance distributed throughout this planet… will make you pay a heavy price-.”
< Those idiots are already sorting out my ‘clones’. >
“What what…?”
< You won’t know until you see it with your own eyes, right? Stupid. >
The corner of the woman’s mouth was strangely twisted.
At the same time, the woman’s shadow on the ground spread out widely in the shape of a fan.
Then shadows began to rise above the ground.
“Oh my god…”
Nebia, who saw the ‘army’ of shadows that had become three-dimensional from a flat surface, felt a definite despair even in her fading consciousness.
The woman spoke with her back turned to the countless shadows that resembled the silhouette of the main body.
< Do not greedily covet the Creator’s land. >
***
“They say the world is now at peace.”
Gangbuk area.
Shin Cho-young took a deep breath while holding the twin swords that were shining with blood.
“But what is all this?”
She saw ‘shadows’ surrounding her.
The blood on the knife was not the blood of those shadows. Shin Cho-young’s own blood splattered all the way to the blade.
In the first place, no matter how hard I swung the sword and tried hard, the shadow regenerated again and again.
It was on a different level from the command soldier who had a clear weakness called ‘Life Vessel’.
Those shadows were literally immortal.
< Stop struggling in vain and quietly become fertilizer for this land. >
< Because that is the way to prove that your existence is meaningful. >
“Shut up!”
Shin Cho-young’s violent sword swept like a typhoon and swept away the shadows.
However, this time too, the shadows that had restored their bodies rushed at Shin Cho-young and swung their clenched fists.
Doo doo doo doo!!
Primal violence.
No matter how much I shook off or resisted, these shadows would not retreat.
at that time.
[Kwaaaaaak-!!]
A sharp scream echoed in her head.
There was no doubt that the screams of Hwang Jun-young and Park Dong-hyuk overlapped.
“teacher? mister! What happened there?! hey! “You two, please say something…!”
There was no answer to Shin Cho-young’s desperate cries.
For a moment, my vision became dark.
Is it actually because of the shadows’ fists hitting the face?
Or…
the entrance to the tower built by Daeseong.
There, Melcanon burst into laughter because he was so dumbfounded.
“When one fight ends, another begins…”
Melcanon muttered to himself as he faced the ‘shadow army’ that was constantly approaching.
“When will we be able to break this damn chain?”
< You are part of that bastard’s family. “What am I doing here instead of returning to my master?” “What obligation do I have to tell you that?” There was an order from the monarch not to let anyone into the tower. Behind him is the monarch's family, whom he must protect with his life. bang-! Melcanon violently slammed the tip of his staff down on the ground. Kwakagagak...!! At that moment, a storm of blades clawed through the shadows. But before long, the shadows calmly reappeared. Does not matter. “Let’s see who wins.” If he was going to back down from a fight of perseverance, he wouldn't have been given the title 'Great Sage' in the first place. *** The current situation had already been relayed to Daesung through a message from Melcanon and Hwang Jun-young’s group. I don't know anything else, but I couldn't stay still after hearing Melcanon's news that the tower had been invaded. “Was the reason you called me into your arms just to let me know that you couldn’t stop that bastard?” < Fortunately, the 'Life Devourer' acted as an intermediary and I was able to summon you. okay. I wanted to tell you that ‘it’ has come to visit you. >
“That’s stupid. If I had been fighting that guy when I was having this conversation with you, things would have been a lot better. “Get me out of here right now.”
< ...and it was to protect you. ‘It’ is not something that even you can handle now. If you die too, then all hope really disappears. ...Gwon Geun-won's words, which he tried to continue, could not finish. Grumble-! Before I knew it, Daeseong had taken out his sword and was splitting the dark space. The source of the earth felt a slight pain and asked with a trembling voice. < What are you doing? >
“I’m going to get out of here.”
< Stop it! Don't do anything hasty! In front of ‘it’ without any measures-. >
“Measures? “What kind of measures are you taking when your family is in danger again in less than three days?”
The Eophwa Great Sword clearly created a gap in the arms of the origin.
In the past, it would have been unthinkable, but now it is a fireworks greatsword with the added power of ‘fragments’.
Thanks to this, Daesung was able to escape from Geunwon’s embrace without difficulty.
< Baby! >
Leaving behind the urgent cry of ‘The Origin of the Earth’, Daesung returned to the outside world of New Mexico.
I saw a bloody scene where the corpses of elves and humans were tangled in a haphazard manner.
And even the appearance of ‘that’ that caused this whole situation….
That- When the woman found Daesung, her face turned a deep blush.
< You’re finally here. I thought I was going crazy waiting. Then, stay with me for a moment- >
“I’ll kill you later.”
< What? >
At that moment, Daesung’s appearance disappeared from the woman’s sight.
Daesung moved the location using the checkpoint previously set while building the tower.
In the blink of an eye, Daeseong entered the interior of the Blood Queen’s castle, which was realized on the first floor of the tower.
The point where the checkpoint is set is the central hallway where the rooms where Hye-jeong and Ji-soo are staying face each other.
However, the shadow army’s magic had already spread there.
‘There are these guys inside the tower.’
The entrance was opened.
Now that I think about it, at some point I stopped hearing Melcanon’s sound.
‘He’s not dead.’
I just lost consciousness.
This was known because the owner and the summoned animal shared the same magic circuit and were intertwined with the same magic circuit.
‘Thank goodness Mom and Jisoo are safe…
‘
Where should I start getting angry?
Daeseong, who had already lost his grip on reason, took hold of the Eophwa Great Sword.
Just as I was about to step on the ground and sweep away the shadows.
< Why is it so urgent that we want to talk? I guess I need to learn patience. >
One of the countless shadows turned into a ‘body’.
A naked woman.
In Daesung’s eyes, that figure looked quite familiar.
okay.
Because it had the face of the main god that I met when I first attacked heaven before the second cataclysm.
< Are you a god? Did you mean to ask that? I’m sorry, but no. >
“….”
But.
The atmosphere it creates now is clearly different from the one I met then.
The weight of the pressing air is different.
The woman shook her head and then spread her arms and spoke.
< I am the creator of the dimensional trees. >
