Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 53

# 53

053

Why is KHA, the symbol of peace, located in Gangnam?

Because there are a lot of rich people in Gangnam? Because the well-being of the middle class and those in power are more important than the common people who have no money?

This is not completely wrong.

In other words, it is not simply that the reason is everything.

5 years ago now.

Korea’s first grade 1 gate appeared in Dogok-dong.

Martial law was imposed throughout the country, and most of the A-class hunters and all S-class hunters, of which there were only three at the time, had to step forward.

Although the Republic of Korea poured out all it could, the damage was severe.

Although the S-class survived, many A-class hunters had to become immortal.

It was from then on.

KHA’s headquarters near the Blue House was moved to Gangnam and the number of branches increased throughout the Korean Peninsula.

Even if you look around the world’s history, there are not many cases reported, but a situation occurred in Korea, especially in the Gangnam area, where a level 1 gate is narrow.

So, it was not strange to focus on raising the security level here.

Is that why?

Wow-!

< This is the Central Defense Bureau warning and control center! Gate Fracture Alert issued! A real gate fracture alert is issued in the Gangnam area at the current time! Following the instructions of public officials, they quickly went to a nearby underground shelter. The excessive vigilance and caution actually brought about a sense of insensitivity to safety among the residents here. “Mr. A, you woke up from your sleep.” “What should I do? honey?" “What are you telling me to run out in my underwear in the middle of the night? It will quiet down soon. “Let’s just get some sleep.” Like right now. A middle-aged man, a senior executive at a pharmaceutical company, covered his ears and buried his face in the pillow. His wife, who was sleeping with him, was anxious because the siren was sounding loudly at this very moment. “But wouldn’t it be better to move to a shelter anyway? No, it seems like it’s been quiet these days, so why all of a sudden…” “Oh, I’m sure the kids at the association will take care of it. “Well, if those monsters come here, the guardians will stop them, so why are you so worried?” Guardian. Today's security company operates on a manned system and is staffed entirely by hunters. A skilled hunter resides in an office near a specific building and is dispatched immediately in case of emergency. Of course, considering the value of the manpower mobilized, in the end, only those who have it can receive the guardian's protection. “My house is much safer than a shelter with military barbarians who can’t even use their stuff.” As for gate fracture, I've experienced it twice. However, the monster's magic hand has never touched him. Even in the worst situation where monsters invaded the front yard of the house, the guardian hunters eventually took care of the problem from the entrance. “Stop worrying about unnecessary things and go to sleep. You may not know this, but I have to go to work tomorrow morning. is not it?" *** Weeeeeee-! A siren blared, reminiscent of a war situation, or rather, a war situation itself. bang-! bang-! “Kwaaaaak-!” Gunshots and human screams raining down through the elementary school playground. Wow-! Everything was being drowned out by the siren that was ringing so loudly that it seemed to reach the night sky. dump-! The last one is Colonel Oh Jin-tae, whose shoulder was cut diagonally. All soldiers and hunters waiting at the playground died. Crrrrr - A group of werewolves with bright red blood smeared around their mouths with their molars exposed took over the large playground. White Wolf Unit. The guys, each about 2.5 meters tall, looked around, each holding a spear knife and an axe. There was no sign of live game nearby. Instead, there is an alarm sound that stings the ears and the faint sounds of humans breathing heavily. Crrr- Baukalak, the commander of the white wolf unit and the top predator of the werewolf race, sniffed with glowing red eyes. I feel it. Where can I find a place to enjoy Yurin? Where is the largest concentration of prey to be trampled? Midnight with a clear full moon shining brightly. Baukalak, whose desire for slaughter reached its peak, planned to rule this world today. After Baukalak looked back at the white wolf soldiers lined up on the playground. Pak-! He raised his large sword upward and roared. Ooooh-! In response to the shout, the white wolf soldiers, numbering in three digits, literally howled like wolves. The march began. *** [List of demons that can be revived: 1. Sentinel of the Iron Castle 2. Valarc's Annihilator Dragon 3. Valarc the Annihilator Dragon Knight] [ Would you like to revive and embody the demons on the list in this world?] “.... ” Daeseong, who was sitting on the throne with his chin resting on his head, was in trouble. This means that not only can the field be implemented, but even the magical beasts that were in the field can be called. It embodies demonic beasts in this world. This was an area where judgment had to be made in many ways. 'You said you were loyal to me, so you won't threaten the Earth, but...' Since the rewards given by the system were not harmful in the end, I accepted them in peace. However, Daesung did not readily accept the implementation of the demonic beast. 'I need to check.' As long as this 'question' that had just occurred to him was resolved, he was willing to bring the demonic beast to life on Earth. Daesung asked the system. “Are the realized demons able to be loaded like fields and items?” It was to hide the demon beasts from the eyes of others. There was a reason it had to be that way. At this time. The system's answer came back. [It is also possible to load a demonic beast into a specific target recognized by the Absolute.] [When loading, the original form of the demonic beast is hidden from view by the object of recognition.] And that was the perfect answer that Daeseong wanted. Demonic beasts can also be loaded. In other words, it means that the appearance of a demonic beast can be hidden. 'No matter how much the guard is, if these ugly looking guys are nearby, Mom and Jisoo will be scared.' Daeseong planned to give orders to the group of demonic beasts he had created to protect his family. A house close to the association, a field, and even demonic beasts who are absolutely loyal to orders from the absolute leader. It is as if an unexpected triple protection measure has been prepared. However, no matter how much they are on the same side, in the eyes of weak-hearted Hye-jeong and Ji-soo, the demon beast is just a monstrous monster. There was a need to at least hide the exterior. also. 'It is a great advantage to be able to deal with magical beasts that are invisible to third parties.' A transparent soldier who is invisible to anyone but himself. There were endless ways to apply it as a tactic. In conclusion, Daesung expressed his approval to the system's question. [< Sentinel of the Iron Castle > < Ballark's Annihilating Dragon > < Annihilating Dragon Knight Balark >. A total of 3 demonic beasts are revived.]

[The representative of the realized field, < Annihilation Dragon Knight Valark >, enters the Pantheon and bows to the Absolute.]

The moment when Daeseong allowed the revival of the demonic beasts in the system.

Wow!

Radiance poured out from Balark’s heroic spirit.

Soon the light disappeared and a berserker wearing gray armor and a red cape landed lightly on the ground and politely knelt down on one knee.

A deep voice came out from the helmet that covered his face.

“The Dragon Knight of Annihilation, Balark, offers greetings to the lord.”

The moment when Ballark transcended the causality of time and space and came back to life here.

[The demon beasts of Pandemonium express their envy toward Balark!]

[A demon stomping on the floor, clutching his sore stomach!]

The demon beasts trapped in the world of nothingness showed their jealousy.

The great saint Ballark also blithely ignored the message and began the conversation.

“I never thought I would see you again like this. Ballark.”

“…Thanks to the realignment of cause and effect, I learned that my lord has established himself as the new absolute ruler of hell. “I congratulate you.”

“okay.”

“My lord, you transcended time and space and personally defeated the foreign enemy that was detaining me. “How can I repay this favor?”

“I didn’t do it for you. However, if you want to repay, there is no way.”

“If I can be of any help to you, my lord, I am ready to offer even my own body.”

As befits his name ‘knight’, Balark was extremely loyal.

Even if the Demon King hadn’t committed tyranny, Valarke would probably have obeyed him as his stooge for the rest of his life.

But now that that loyalty belonged to Daesung, there was nothing to worry about.

Daeseong ordered Ballark, who bowed without even making eye contact.

“You will protect my family forever and ever.”

“Master’s blood relatives… you mean?”

“They are more precious than my life. “If any damage occurs, I will kill you.”

“If that is my mission, I will complete it even if it means throwing everything away.”

Daesung did not doubt Ballark’s skills.

It was a trust that could be given to someone who had directly crossed swords with each other.

If we assume that the monster we met at the gate we first entered with Seong Chan-ho a while ago was average.

Even if they banded together in groups of dozens or hundreds, they wouldn’t be able to come near Balark.

‘Here is not the end. Still, it’s definitely worth testing.’

The possibility of variables occurring must be considered.

Although it is a vague imagination, there is a possibility that the power of the demonic beast embodied on Earth is weaker than when it was in hell.

I wanted to be sure that the demonic beasts embodied in the dimension of Earth could really fight well.

at that time.

[The seal of the manifestation of demonic beasts and fields is engraved on the palm of the Absolute!]

[All demonic beasts and fields that can be realized from now on will be stored in the seal of embodiment instead of the subspace pocket!]

Daeseong, who read the message, checked his right palm. .

The seal of a strangely shaped tattoo was clearly engraved there.

‘Something strange keeps happening to my body.’

Daesung, who was not very happy about having something tattooed on his body, clicked his tongue.

but.

‘I can feel it.’

Should I say that it feels like it is spreading slowly and heavily?

Or should I say I’m excited.

I felt an indescribable sensation all over my body, starting from my palms.

‘Hell is in my hands.’

Just an ordinary palm.

However, within this, the Sentinel of the Iron Castle, the Annihilator Dragon, and even the entire Iron Castle of Valarc were so vivid that one could grasp them with one’s hand.

caught in hand

That would be the most accurate expression to describe what Daesung is feeling right now.

Daesung said to Ballark, squeezing and unfolding his palm, which had a different feel than usual.

“You go in too.”

“I will follow your orders. “If you need anything, please call me anytime.”

As soon as Daeseong gave the command, the black seal of Gu Hyeong shed a blood-red color.

[Would you like to retrieve < Annihilation Dragon Knight Valark > within the Seal of Embodiment?]

Daesung nodded.

Hahahaha!

The gray berserker’s body burned violently and was sucked into the phosphorus.

The business ends here.

What’s left?

‘The only thing left to do is to test it out.’

There should not be a single loophole or mistake.

After all, wasn’t all the hardships he went through in the Pantheon to prepare a protective measure to protect his family?

‘When Mom and Jisoo are caught up in hardship, it will be too late even if the defect is discovered.’

How should I test it?

It would be nice if a gate fracture occurred somewhere and I had a chance to check the performance of the things I got right away.

‘There is no way gate fractures occur that frequently. ‘You shouldn’t expect such good things.’

Daesung calmed his impatience and went straight back to reality without stopping by the Pantheon.

The moment he steps out of the stone gate and into the dark night streets of reality.

beep-! beep-!

The cell phone in my pants pocket rang loudly.

Daesung, who wanted something, took out his cell phone and quickly checked the identity of the signal.

The corners of his mouth rose.

< Grade 2 gate fracture occurs in Dogok-dong, Gangnam-gu! > An

emergency disaster text message is sent to citizens across the country regardless of region when a gate fracture occurs.

‘Something good happened.’

For Daesung, disaster was also an opportunity.

There is just one problem.

‘If it’s Gangnam, it’s quite a distance from here. Should I run?’

From Sanggye-dong to Dogok-dong.

If Daesung covers the distance by simply running, 30 minutes is enough.

However, in order to save time, there was something I could test right now.

“Implementation of an annihilating dragon.”

The moment Daesung muttered that while extending his wide open palm forward.

[< Balark's Destroying Dragon > is summoned from the Seal of Embodiment.]

[The Embodiment confirms the existence of the Absolute! < Balark's Destroying Dragon > has changed its master-servant relationship to < Handaeseong Annihilating Dragon >.]

Grrrr!

Flames burst out violently from the tattoo on his palm and began to take the shape of a huge dragon.

A huge dragon’s foot stepped on the ground through the flames.

A black dragon so large that it filled the streets here at night appeared.

It was the moment when the annihilating dragon of hell was realized in this world.

Purr, purr –

the bastard didn’t howl out loud, but instead let out heavy breaths like a horse.

“There is a family sleeping nearby, so don’t make any noise.”

When Daeseong put his index finger to the corner of his mouth and spoke, the annihilating dragon closed his mouth without making even a small sigh.

Daeseong planned to board the annihilation dragon and head to Gangnam.

but.

“Hmm…”

The problem is that the annihilating dragon was so big that it took up almost an entire street in Daldongne.

If you spread your wings and fly with a body like this, the walls and houses around you will collapse, causing chaos.

While Daesung is thinking about what to do.

Crrr-

[The annihilator dragon temporarily downgrades itself to a flying dragon for the convenience of the Absolute.]

The body of the crouched annihilator dragon began to shrink noticeably.

Eventually, the massive body of the annihilator dragon, which was close to a battleship, was reduced to the size of a limousine in the blink of an eye.

Polymorph is the unique power of the Balaur tribe that allows them to change themselves into the desired form.

Daeseong nodded at the quick-witted action of the annihilating dragon.

“It’s the perfect size to ride on.”

Swish-!

Daeseong jumped lightly and landed on the back of the annihilating dragon that had become a flying dragon.

The annihilating dragon showed signs of obedience and resonated with Daeseong’s consciousness riding on its back.

“Let’s go to Gangnam.”

There was no way the annihilating dragon knew the name of Gangnam.

Still, thanks to the resonance of my consciousness, I was able to know where the area the owner was talking about was.

Flap-!

The annihilating dragon flew into the sky, flapping its black wings vigorously.

With just one kick on the ground, the new form of the annihilating dragon carrying Daeseong instantly soared through the clouds and all the way under the full moon.

And… boom!

The annihilating dragon struck the air and began to fly across the sky.

A strong night wind rushed in and swept Daesung’s bangs upward.

The vast night scenery vaguely unfolding beneath those clouds changed rapidly.

A shock wave exploded from the back feet and tail of the annihilator dragon, which stretched out backwards, and the clouds dispersed like an explosion.

Sonic boom.

A long white band erupted from the back of the annihilator dragon, rushing through the dark sky at a speed exceeding the speed of sound.

“Mobility is acceptable.”

Daesung responded with satisfaction as he felt pleasantly hit by the fierce night wind.

***

Boom boom boom! The advance of the

White

Wolf unit was truly unstoppable.

Even though for them, it is appearing in a world they have never seen before.

Their advance, pursuing the presence of prey through their developed sense of smell, was as natural as if they had understood the geography of this place from the beginning.

That was the cause.

“help me! Help me!”

“Kyaahhh-!”

“It’s been so long since the alarm went off, but the monsters are already here!”

The cause of screams coming from the mouths of countless people.

A group of white wolves appeared in front of local residents who were just about to arrive at the underground shelter near the district office.

Kwasik-!

Degurr….

One of the government officials who was guiding the local residents had his head blown off by a weapon wielded by a white wolf.

“Go ahead quickly! Fuck you!”

“Don’t push! “Don’t push!”

“My child! “I can’t see my child…”

Thanks to this, the local residents who were leisurely heading to the shelter had no choice but to speed up their steps.

Uddangtang-!

People were in a panic, pushing each other to go to the shelter first.

“Everyone get out of the way!”

“If this continues we will all die!”

The bodies of the fallen people were tangled together. Those who were busy saving their own lives didn’t even care about stepping on the fallen person’s body.

It was an instant for the slow, relatively orderly evacuation procession to turn into chaos.

Kwasik-!

“Aaaah-!”

At the tail end of the short procession, chaos and carnage was unfolding.

Hunters waiting near the shelter heard the fracture warning and confronted the white wolf unit.

“This is near the shelter! Request support! Say it again! This is near the shelter! Jiwon yo-”

Fuuuk-!

“Queuuuuu….”

I was no match for him.

Even though the hunting team consisted of more than half of the B-class and A-class players, it was not enough to block the white wolf monster of the 2nd grade.

Combat power and number of people.

< Chijik- This is Team B. Sorry, but this place is too close. We have requested the headquarters to send in external troops, so please hold on just a little longer. >

“I can’t hold on. “I can’t hold out any longer, you bastard…”

The commander of the hunting team stationed at the shelter gasped.

I just found out over the radio.

The most frustrating thing about the current situation isn’t the fact that the support team can’t come here.

Real despair was something else.

“How many of these bastards are there?”

Team B, a dispersed force, was also in dire straits, so other external support was urgently needed.

This meant that the number of White Wolf troops invading the Gangnam area was completely unknown.

“Commander Ji. What should I do?”

A subordinate hunter who managed to maintain his senses even in the face of a nightmare in which many of his comrades were dying asked a question.

The commander couldn’t answer the question and then looked back.

Citizens standing behind him.

There is no such thing as order, and there are scenes of people running away, trying to survive by pushing, stepping on, and tangling.

We had to avoid the situation getting even worse here.

“…We need to buy time. At least until the people here get inside the shelter.”

“….”

The faces of the hunting team members who faced the white wolf unit darkened.

To put it another way, it meant that there was no way.

Crrr –

White wolf troops clad in iron armor slowly approached them in despair.

There is no way to run away from these monsters.

“I don’t want to die…”

They were prepared for this moment to come and became hunters belonging to the KHA.

But as soon as that moment arrived, my noble determination faded like a candle in the wind.

Slowly, quietly –

the moment they take a step back, weighed down by the intimidation of the White Wolf unit.

Ooooh-!

Suddenly, a loud roar poured down from the sky.

“What is this again?”

It was the roar of an absolute monster.

Thinking that this was adding insult to injury, the commander of the hunting team raised his head and looked up at the night sky.

“Huh…”

And a light of despair appeared in his wide-open eyes.

Dragon!

A black dragon that looked exactly like the one I had seen in pictures and videos was descending towards this place.

“Ah ah….”

Are you really saying that this is not a dream but reality?

Is today really the day when Korea, beyond Gangnam, collapses?

A dragon.

As long as I wasn’t seeing things, the werewolves in front of me weren’t a problem.

At that time, the commander and his subordinates were unable to continue speaking, just sighing.

“…uh?”

“That…”

They looked.

The moment when the blue moonlight from the full moon passed over the black dragon’s back.

What was hidden in darkness was revealed in whitish color.

Ooooh-!

Behind the dragon that is letting out a fierce roar.

“Isn’t that a person?”

A white-haired man was riding.
