Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 49
# 49
049
The scene in the video that Park Jeong-ho saw was not covered by the media.
In any case, the news that < Red Ma > collapsed due to an unknown cause reached the ears of the general public.
[Hwang Jun-young, who raided < Hongma > on the day of the incident, stated that he did not kill Lee Seok-woo…] [
The police believe it was the work of a hunter who had bad feelings toward Lee Seok-woo.]
“Wow, what a real hunter did . “How can you live when you’re scared of this world?”
Jisoo, sitting on the sofa with her knees up, said that after listening to the anchor’s report.
Hyejeong, who was peeling apples under the sofa, looked at the news with a serious expression, as if she was thinking the same thing.
‘If he’s someone who can destroy something as large as < Red Demon > overnight, he’s not weak.’
Even Daesung, who was sitting next to Jisoo, was thinking the same thing.
The fact that he was not weak was an assessment made based on other awakened people on Earth, not on Daesung’s own standards.
‘There are a lot of evil people on Earth, both then and now.’
Daesung made this decision.
In order to protect my family, I will stop all the monsters and gate seeds that exist on Earth.
However, the moment I heard the news that < Red Demon > may have collapsed at the hands of the same awakened person.
I thought it was necessary to expand the scope of those who should stop the seed.
‘Monsters and humans alike cannot be trusted without permission.’
No one knows what’s going on in the world.
What was happening in the news right now could have an impact on his family.
What if your family is in danger while you are at the gate?
Just thinking about it made me dizzy.
‘We need to take measures. ‘No matter what it takes.’
First of all, we had to prepare so that the family would be safe even in the unlikely event of an emergency.
That too, ‘doublely’.
First thing first.
“mom. “Jisoo.”
Daesung, who had been watching TV in silence, suddenly opened his mouth, attracting the attention of the two.
Daesung was not the type to be the first to speak, so the two listened with a bit of nervousness.
The first thing Daesung said was this.
“Let’s move to a big house.”
***
I was taught from a young age not to judge people based solely on appearances, but the real estate agent believed that you can judge an actual homeless house to some extent by its appearance.
But today he had no choice but to withdraw his belief and admit that home education was right.
“Wow, awesome! Of all the places I’ve visited so far, I think this is the best. “What does Mom think?”
“Oh, Mom… I guess I can’t really tell the difference between here and there because they’re all grown up…”
“Mom, too! “You just have to feel this with your heart. With your heart!”
No matter how you look at it, the real estate agent had to give up in front of the wealth of the three families, who seemed far from ‘booty’.
Dogok-dong, Gangnam-gu, one of the wealthiest villages in Korea. It is also a top-of-the-line tower palace where only the richest 1% of people can move in.
Among them, Daeseong and his family stepped onto the 60th floor, where a wide panoramic view can be seen from one room.
Jisoo asked as she watched the interior, unable to keep her mouth shut, as it looked like something out of a chaebol drama.
“What do you think, brother?”
Toward Daesung, who was standing in front of a wall made of glass and looking down.
‘This is the closest to KHA.’
He thought as he stared at the skyscraper of KHA Branch 1 standing tall not far away.
There were two criteria for choosing a new home for him to move to with his family.
first. It should be wide.
second. It must be close to the association.
As obvious as the first was, the second was also important.
There are many talented hunters stationed in KHA.
These days, there are even jokes telling people to run to Dogok-dong if there is no shelter nearby.
That means Dogok-dong was the safest neighborhood even if the gate fracture exploded.
“This place has the best view and is closest to the association, so it will be difficult to find another place like this.”
The real estate agent also did not miss out on the advantage of being near the association.
Mom and Jisoo seemed to be more than satisfied.
Daesung decided that this was best and asked the broker.
“When can you come in?”
“ah! If you wish, you can move in starting tomorrow! “Then…”
The broker came out in a low manner, carefully observing Daesung’s thoughts.
A look in your eyes that asks if you have decided.
Before making the final decision, Daesung silently looked at Hyejeong and Jisoo, and they both smiled and nodded.
It has been concluded.
“Let’s use this house.”
The moment those words came out of Daesung’s mouth.
The broker’s expression brightened after posting a great performance.
The real estate agent secretly clenched his fists and said the resolution he had made earlier instead of saying a formal thank you.
“I and… I will not charge any brokerage fees.”
Hye-jeong and Ji-soo were surprised by the unconventional proposal that suddenly came out of the broker’s mouth.
The fee is not half price or even zero?
While the two of them opened their eyes wide.
“Aren’t you the person who was in the news recently as a supernova?”
When the broker asked with a secret smile, Daesung nodded.
“Yes, but.”
“ah! As expected… I kept saying you looked familiar from earlier, so I guess I wasn’t wrong.”
What do you want to say?
As Daesung listened quietly, the broker bowed politely and spoke.
“He will continue to protect not only Gangnam, but the entire Republic of Korea, so it is natural for him to receive this level of benefit.”
“….”
“Rather, I feel sorry because this is the only thing I can do in my power.”
At first, the real estate agent thought that Hye-jeong and Ji-soo were not suitable for a palace apartment like this.
But the moment I realized that they were a family of supernovas that made a world of noise.
Everything made sense, but at the same time, I couldn’t help but reflect deeply on my narrow-mindedness of judging people only based on their appearances.
Although he didn’t show it, he truly felt sorry for Daesung.
“It is thanks to hunters that I can feed my family while working as a real estate agent. “If it weren’t for the struggles of those people, it would really be…”
The real estate agent, who almost got a little emotional, composed himself and continued.
“Please continue to remember that there are many people who have the same feelings as me in unseen places.”
“….”
Daesung looked embarrassed in front of the broker who rarely straightened his back, and Jisoo smiled softly and tapped his side with her elbow.
And Hyejeong-eun.
‘It turns out that letting someone become a hunter wasn’t always a bad thing.’
It was none other than the person who felt the happiest on the spot.
***
Hyejeong and Jisoo went to sleep excited at the thought that they would be able to escape this boring village tomorrow.
And as always.
Daesung, who was the last to go to bed and the first to wake up, looked at the comfortable faces of his family in silence.
‘My heart feels lighter.’
Letting the only family get out of this unsafe, small town and live in a spacious house.
That was one of my wishes since I first went to Seong Chan-ho’s house.
‘But this isn’t enough.’
Even though the house was spacious and close to the association, 100% safety was not guaranteed.
Isn’t it possible that an enemy that even the association cannot handle could attack your family while you are away?
‘A double iron wall is needed.’
A double iron wall that can prevent external danger from any disaster.
The first thought that came to mind was to appoint a commanding officer as a guard.
But it was a stupid idea.
‘I can’t entrust my mother and Jisoo’s lives to weaklings like that.’
These guys were struggling even with a few bullets, so it wasn’t worth considering.
Daesung, thinking that something could be done, quietly left the house.
“Pantheon.”
Grumble-!
As Daesung spoke as he entered a quiet alley, a stone gate engulfed in flames appeared in the air.
[Would you like to enter the Pantheon?]
As I
nodded,
the stone door opened wide and a flash of light poured out.
After entering the Pantheon, Daeseong stood in front of a huge journal.
‘I definitely said it could embody all the elements of hell.’
On the day I finished the Advent Quest, the system announced so.
With all ‘elements’, this would mean that not only ‘items’ but also ‘environments’ can somehow be implemented on Earth.
Daesung, who needed confirmation, addressed the system and got to the point.
“You probably know what I want right now. How is it possible?”
The system responded quickly.
[Do you want to accept the Field Implementation quest? Yes / No]
Daesung was satisfied with the timely content written in the notification window.
Field implementation quest following item implementation.
It was not difficult to guess that this meant that some of the environments of hell could be implemented on Earth.
[There are currently a total of five types of fields that can be implemented.]
[1. [Forest of the Predator 2. Territory of the Demon King 3. Territory of the Flame King 4. Nest of the Destroying Dragon 5. Valark’s Iron Castle 6. Spider Valley] It
was clear at a glance what the criteria for the selected field list were.
These were areas that Daeseong had passed through while carrying out the materialization quest.
Items could be brought to Earth with their appearance hidden through loading.
If so, the field would also be the same.
All you have to do is choose one of them and secure a second ‘iron wall’ where your family can stay safely.
‘It should be a place where Mom and Jisoo can relax.’
Since Hell is an alien world, the atmospheric composition was different from that of Earth.
Temperature, moisture, gravity, etc. It was necessary to select a field that resembled Earth as much as possible to avoid any inconvenience to the family.
‘The Predator’s Forest, the Territory of the 13 Lords, and Spider Valley are excluded.’
The moisture in the predator forest was comparable to that of the Amazon jungle.
The Spider Valley, where Saju’s eyes were drawn, had a foul odor and was dirty and sticky everywhere his hands and feet touched.
The territories of the Ghost King and the Flame King were not worth discussing.
‘Balark’s Iron Castle would be best.’
At least it is a field composed of an ‘internal’ structure rather than an ‘external’ environment.
Except for the fact that the temperature was low and slightly chilly, ‘Balark’s Iron Castle’ was most similar to the environment on Earth.
Moreover, as its name Cheolseong, the outer wall was very strong.
It can even withstand the breath of an annihilating dragon that spits out lava instead of saliva.
“To Balark’s territory.”
Maybe it’s because it’s my first field implementation quest.
The moment Daesung made his decision and opened his mouth, a window showing how to perform the quest appeared.
[You will enter the field realization quest in a state of spirit.]
[In a state of spirit, you can transcend all time and space and ‘briefly’ return to the point in time recorded in the journal.] [The
ruler of each field is [He has been brainwashed by heavenly transcendents.]
[Please kill the ‘brainwashed rulers’ placed in the field to adjust the causality and release the seal on space and time.] At
first, I thought what was going on.
Spirit regression, ruler, transcendental brainwashing, causality sealing, etc.
This is because terms that were not seen during item implementation were being overused.
But soon Daesung was able to understand the gist of what the system was trying to say.
‘You’re telling me to go back to those days.’
The item implementation quest only recreated ‘space’.
A hellish space dominated by celestial beings or something.
However, the field implementation quest was a way to implement not only space but also ‘time’.
Rather than carrying out quests in the present hell with a mortal body.
Doing quests in the hell of the past in a past body.
In other words, it is regression.
However, I couldn’t figure out how to adjust the causality by going back to those days.
‘You won’t know anything until you hit it yourself.’
If it’s a new challenge or a new ordeal, I’ve been through it tirelessly for 80 years.
The days of fear and hesitation in the face of experiences we have never experienced are over.
And… regression.
‘When I went to Balark’s Iron Castle, I was weaker than I am now.’
A distant past.
Let alone defeating the Demon God, you are going back to the past when you were never even close to him, so it is natural for you to become weak.
But that weakness is only a physical weakness.
‘The experiences and memories imprinted on the body and mind remain the same.’
I couldn’t remember every single detail.
But great memories.
For example, the enemies and traps that caused him the most pain and suffering when he entered Balark’s iron castle.
They were still stored in my mind.
No, even if there are parts you have forgotten, if you go back to that time, the experiences and instincts imprinted on your mind and body will reach out to you to save you.
‘If you know but don’t do it, you’re stupid.’
While Daesung was thinking that there was no reason to hesitate.
Wow!
The pages of the giant journal rich in the Pantheon turned quickly.
[212p: -45 years. Do you want to go back to the 78th? Yes / No]
A message asking if you want to go back, not a reenactment of that time.
Well, whatever it is, it’s good.
Daesung nodded willingly, and once again additional messages quickly came to mind.
And the moment I saw that message.
“This…?”
Daesung once again became convinced.
Pantheon and the system are on his side.
