Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 70
# 70
070
After receiving Dolph’s message, Daesung activated his < Flight > skill and immediately flew to Central Park in Bundang-gu.
As he felt the scenery unfolding below pass by quickly, Daesung recalled what Dolph had said.
-A report has come in from a soldier under your command. I heard that other people had already hit the player in the direction of Central Park…
I couldn’t believe my ears at first.
At that moment, Daesung logged onto the KHA website to see if he had missed a gate by mistake.
Of course, there were no mistakes.
The name of the representative who won the bid for the gate that appeared in Central Park was clearly stated as ‘Han Dae-seong’.
“Tsk. “I don’t know what’s going on…”
It’s only level 4 anyway, so even if the fracture explodes, it won’t be very fatal.
Other hunters may not know, but Daeseong’s power can easily solve this problem.
However, the reason why Daesung’s face crumpled so quickly as he flew towards Central Park was not because of concerns about fractures.
“Do you stick a spoon into food that someone else has covered in saliva?”
[This is an issue that cannot just be ignored. Please take action, my lord.]
“Uh.”
Wedge-!
The blowing wind blew his front hair back. The expression on his face was clearly visible.
An expression with wrinkles distorted by anger and veins rising here and there.
“I have to kill him.”
For a moment, I waited for Daesung to fly away with his red eyes flashing menacingly.
widely-.
He was able to arrive at Central Park in less than 5 minutes.
As expected.
Inside the park surrounded by barricades and control lines, there were soldiers with white complexions and command soldiers dripping with black fluid.
And the gate.
Puzzle-!
“….”
Lightning was pounding hard on the surface of the sphere, which was already in a state where entry was impossible.
It was as if he was expressing his will that no more outside entry could be allowed.
Ugh-.
Well…
the command soldiers who arrived at the scene after receiving the order were also just scratching their heads at the absurd situation.
“Stress is no joke this morning.”
In order to find out the reason for this skit, Daesung approached the soldier guarding the gate.
just as expected.
“Hee hee hee…!”
As expected, the soldier narrowed his shoulders and was startled, as if he had been stabbed.
Every time Daesung walked one step closer, the soldier’s heart pounded as if it would explode.
widely-.
“What is it?”
Daesung’s shadow, which was facing him with a gap large enough to fit a fist, covered the top of the soldier’s head.
He was so big that he could only look up if he tilted his head back until it touched his back.
The soldier pursed his lips, looking like a man with a knife stuck in his throat.
“Yes yes…?”
“What happened? I’m sure the gate here is already reserved in my name?”
“That…”
Aside from being scary, the soldier was also clearly feeling remorse.
Feeling a deep sense of reflection, he explained to Daesung everything that had just happened as easily and concisely as possible.
“< Nether > Clan….”
I remember the name.
Because it was one of the Big 10 that recommended him to join not long ago.
“…Yes, that’s what the < Nether > clan did.”
Daesung, who now knew the inside story, nodded and looked at the gate.
Grade 4 normal type.
However, if an A-level hunter, an executive level member of < Nether >, is at the forefront, it will be cleared without difficulty.
In short, the probability of a fracture exploding was extremely low.
‘Are you saying you’re going to eat it and get rid of it?’
However, I emphasize again that it was not important to him at all whether or not the fracture exploded.
What was important was the fact that some scoundrels had stolen my precious rice bowl.
“I’m sorry, Hunter. I shouldn’t have done that… It’s really shameful. Is this really….”
“….”
Daesung could not make eye contact and looked silently at the trembling soldier who kept spitting out words of apology.
Seeing that pitiful sight, the feelings of anger towards the soldier subsided a little.
It was an unusual change of heart, but there was a good reason for it.
‘I also understand well the sadness of not having the power.’
The soldier said he had been threatened by a hunter from the < Nether > clan.
And Daesung knew that in the world of Earth, the quality of life depends on the logic of an invisible force, not a force different from hell.
It wasn’t in hell.
The gap between A and B.
“They are terrible people.”
“yes?”
Leaving behind the soldier who blinked in confusion.
Jeopuk-.
Daesung stood in front of the gate engulfed in violent sparks.
‘It is a gate that is impossible to enter…’
A gate that has already accepted all allowable existences from the external dimension and closed all entrances.
Suddenly, suddenly -.
Just as opposing magnets repel each other, the waves emanating from the tightly closed gate gradually pushed Daesung back.
As if telling you not to come even close.
[The resistance is considerable. So much so that it makes me feel sad….]
“….”
[If you try to force the door open, you might end up stuck in the gap between two dimensions.]
‘So.’
[Huh?]
‘The door is locked so I should just wait outside?’
Being stressed out by unexpected variables makes me so angry, so what more patience should I exert here?
‘This was originally mine. ‘It’s mine, so why should I wait?’
[My lord. Haona….]
‘It’s done. ‘Keep your mouth shut.’
Aside from being caught in a dimensional gap, Daesung was just extremely uncomfortable with the situation itself.
The moment Daesung decides that this is not a problem worth considering, he reaches out to the gate where the current is furiously rushing.
“Uh oh! “Hunter!”
The soldier who was watching the scene was embarrassed and tried to stop him.
Soon, Daesung’s fingertip made contact with the gate and
cracked!
“Hmm…”
I took my right hand back, which had been immersed in the swaying gate.
I didn’t really feel any pain.
This is because the right hand, which should have felt the pain, was damaged to the point where its original shape was difficult to recognize.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ! Sa Hunter!”
[Master-!]
“….”
The soldier and the butterfly girl were shocked and shocked, as if they had seen a ghost.
Daesung, the person involved, reacted very calmly.
“Uh, quickly request medical assistance…!”
At that time, the soldier was in a hurry to take out the radio.
The soldier’s eyes widened like lanterns as he saw the unbelievable scene.
“Uh huh…?”
Daesung’s right hand, which had obviously been horribly disfigured, had recovered in a considerable amount of time while he was briefly focused on the walkie-talkie.
And even at this moment, I am surprised.
Daesung’s right hand was quickly regaining its original shape.
‘How could you do that…?’
Even if an A-class buffer infuses healing aura, the injury would not be able to recover that quickly.
Is that S-class level?
On the other hand, the soldier feels shocked when faced with a phenomenon that goes beyond common sense.
‘The lock is once solid.’
It was a similar case to the River of the Dead.
Regardless of recovery, the moment you immerse your entire body, your bones and flesh will disappear without a trace.
‘Unless you can take the lock.’
But I didn’t want to back down just because I hurt my hand.
‘Just cut off the lock and that’s it.’
Although my right hand suffered damage, fortunately there was a harvest.
Daesung clearly felt it as he put his hand inside the gate that was off-limits.
The feel of something like a saw blade spinning vigorously.
I couldn’t tell exactly what the saw blade looked like because I only felt it with my fingertips, but I was like,
‘I’m sure. That saw blade-like thing prevents intrusion from the outside.’
saw blade.
In other words, I clearly realized that it was playing the role of a ‘lock’.
Grumble-!
Daeseong pulled out a sword filled with explosive heat from inside the activated subspace.
Then he pointed the tip of the blade towards the gate and asked.
‘King Yeom.’
-Please call me Magnus from now on. How dare I take the title ‘King’ in front of my lord?
It was the deep voice of the Flame King, or rather the Heroic Spirit Magnus, residing in the great sword that I had not heard in a long time.
If the situation arises, Daesung took a stance with the tip of the blade straight forward, with the momentum of swinging the sword, and asked through his will.
‘Can you cut it?’
-Even if you can’t cut it down… you can probably burn it. I can do it. Please believe me.
‘That’s a good answer.’
At the same time, Daesung’s mouth curls up.
Hwareuk-!
The flames surrounding the fireworks greatsword’s sword spewed out a hot wind that seemed like the light of the sun.
“Sir Hunter! What now…?!”
The soldier was greatly astonished when he saw Daeseong suddenly pulling out a flaming sword.
However, they cannot get any closer due to the fierce burning smell and the swirling heat.
Sigh-!
The fireworks greatsword pierced the wall of electric current blazing like a thunderbolt and was violently driven into the gate.
***
He had a skinny body and messy reddish-brown hair.
Ink-colored cloth clothes torn like rags.
And since it has two arms and two legs, it looks like the same human being at first glance…
“I’m giving you a choice now. “It’s an opportunity that doesn’t come around very often, so I don’t want you to think about it for too long.”
A tongue so long that it seems like it might even reach the forehead.
The pupil and eye area, which were vertically slit like a cat, were bright red as if blood had filled up inside.
It was a creepy sight that could never be considered human and should not even be called human.
A strange person.
“I’ll ask again. Are you planning on becoming our soldier? huh?”
And then the monster spoke in a woman’s voice, licking his tongue.
“Kkeakkeok….”
It was directed at Kang Ki-beom, who was lying on the ground with his lower body torn off and blood flowing like a waterfall.
Except the lower third of his face was gone.
It was a clean body without a single wound.
“Oh sorry. You can’t speak properly because your mouth has been torn off? Ha, I made a mistake. “If I had known this would happen, I would have broken my arm or leg.”
“Keuuk….”
“Then why are you attacking me so recklessly? “Well, I liked it more because it looked cool.”
The monster giggled and stroked Kang Ki-beom’s hideous features.
The moment I first encountered the monster earlier.
Kang Ki-beom felt fear for a moment, but immediately felt anger at the deaths of the crew and confronted the monster.
But before the angry blow even reached the monster.
Kang Ki-beom experienced something strange.
‘…My hands and feet moved as I wanted.’
Both hands moved of their own accord and grabbed his chin.
And what happened right after that was obvious just by looking at his subordinate, who was now rolling on the floor.
‘Mind control system? no…. ‘I didn’t feel like my consciousness was being controlled.’
“The sound of heads rolling can be heard all the way from here.”
Kang Ki-beom felt like his heart almost stopped for a moment.
Before I knew it, the monster had his face close to my nose and his scary-looking eyes were wide open.
A heavy feeling of death that was incomparable to just now began to weigh down my whole body.
“If you don’t want your chin and then your spine ripped out, answer quickly. Are you going to be our soldier or not?”
“….”
“Again, I hope you give a positive answer. “It’s not a bad thing for you either.”
More than the pain of having my jaw joint pulled out.
Kang Ki-beom had no idea how all of this was going on.
What is this monster?
What is a soldier?
I wanted to pour out questions, but I couldn’t, so I felt frustrated.
“Yes, you probably have a lot of questions.”
The monster also did not miss the emotions that appeared in Kang Ki-beom’s eyes.
“But it’s not like I can talk about this or that to you, a human from this world, right?”
“….”
“I’ll tell you the details if you come over as a resident of Honsei.”
Kang Ki-beom took a deep breath.
A mixed population…
I don’t know what this means, but one thing is certain.
It was clear that those words meant that I should give up being human.
“What is good about being a resident of the world we live in?”
The monster was very accurately and keenly aware of Kang Ki-beom’s true intentions.
At first, Kang Ki-beom thought those eyes reminded him of a cat, but no.
“For now, your life will be saved.”
A venomous snake
was a snake that was extremely cruel and yet so skillful at shaking people’s hearts.
“And now you can gain power that is incomparable to that of a human body. “You’ll never regret it, right?”
“….”
“Do what I’m saying still seem like a threat? Or…”
The corner of the monster’s mouth, which was torn long enough to reach the pinna of his ear, drew an arc.
It was a sight that would make you sick, but Kang Ki-beom did not look away.
“If you have an idea, just nod your head. “Even if you don’t have a chin, you can at least nod, right?”
Because the countless thoughts that filled my head numbed my fears.
You can buy it.
And
you can gain greater power.
The price was probably good.
If I were to pay the price now, my life would be taken away mercilessly, but what kind of price is that?
‘You have to live to see it first!’
In other words, giving up on humanity was like saying to betray humanity.
So what?
Isn’t it possible for him to die lonely in this deserted cave because of his beliefs?
-Nod.
Kang Ki-beom’s head slowly moved up and down.
“Good idea!”
The monster clapped his hands together and laughed out loud.
Looking at the happy monster, Kang Ki-beom hoped that all of this wasn’t just bluff or deception.
“It will sting a little.”
The monster stretched out his bony hand and touched Kang Ki-beom’s chest.
That moment.
Chi-ik-!
“Huh huh…?!”
“I’m going to kill you.”
A burning pain, as if my flesh was being pricked with an iron, began to overtake my entire body.
The pain continued for a while, along with the excruciating sound of skin cracking, even after the monster removed his palm.
“Huh huh huh huh-!?”
While Kang Ki-beom was struggling with his limbs like a death row inmate being strangled.
Crackling-! Kkjjik-!
Countless abnormalities were occurring in his body.
Bones broke, joints cracked, and
new bones and joints began to grow in the gaps.
Pak-!
The texture of both shoulder muscles was torn left and right, and sharp thorns like blades erupted.
At some point, Kang Ki-beom lost his human form.
Shhh-.
White steam boiled and Kang Ki-beom, who had become a monster, slowly stood up and took a look at his new body.
His entire body was covered with protruding carapace instead of skin, and he had become a monster.
A shape that looks like a mixture of a black insect and a human.
“This is…”
The pain that had been making me faint disappeared. My previously confused mind became clear.
And I felt it.
“This…!”
A torrent of power shaking through the body.
The destructive instinct that runs wild enough to be difficult to control!
‘If this is enough…’
When comparing the time when I had stored the aura in my body that was worthy of an A-class hunter and now, the latter was overwhelming.
That means,
‘I am stronger than the S class now!’
This moment was truly a blessing for him, who had only pursued the path to becoming stronger since becoming an Awakened One.
Thump thump thump.
Kang Ki-beom’s face, red with excitement and joy, slowly turned towards the monster.
“how is it? “It kills my mood.”
At that time, the monster was laughing darkly and congratulating the newly born Kang Ki-beom.
bang-!!
A sudden explosion of laughter swallowed up the monster’s voice.
Kang Ki-beom and the monster’s gaze simultaneously turned to the center of the roar.
The entrance to the gate where Kang Ki-beom and the crew of < Nether > first entered.
The entrance, which looked like the wall of a cave, had now collapsed into pieces and was emitting a pillar of fire.
Jeopuk-.
And a black seal broke through the fiercely burning pillar of fire.
“It works.”
Inyoung’s identity was Daesung.
He stepped on the fragments of the collapsed cave wall and said briefly as he indifferently swept away the flames.
“Who is Kang Ki-beom here?”
***
Sneak-.
The monster immediately activated ‘Stealth’ and hid himself.
‘It’s him.’
The monster, who maintained a careless attitude, thought calmly at this moment, glaring at Daesung.
‘The one who interfered with our plans.’
Simultaneous opening of sixteen active gates in Seongnam City.
As a result, the plan was to send out the entire army of soldiers to the human world and quickly collect ‘sacrifices’…
but that plan was going drastically wrong due to one human and his limbs.
‘I don’t know. How on earth do you know our plans? No, more than that…’
The fact that that white-haired human saw through their plan and disrupted it was surprising.
But what confuses the monster even more than that is,
‘That guy… Did he break through the gate with the < barrier > on it?’
The point was that he entered without notice at a gate that had been firmly locked to prevent entry from the outside.
‘It has to be removed.’
That was when the monster made that decision.
Sze-.
Kang Ki-beom tilted his head and raised his hand.
“I’m Kang Ki-beom? “Looking at your unique face, I guess you are the famous Han Dynasty saint?”
Kang Ki-beom. He has just become a resident of a new society.
At that moment, a suitable platform was prepared to check the power he possessed.
The monster remained ‘hidden’ and quietly crossed his arms and looked at Kang Ki-beom.
‘We’ll see how quickly he adapts to that body.’
The wind passed by my cheek.
bang-!
A loud noise that continues a few seconds later.
What just happened?
Thinking like that, the monster’s head turned back without realizing it.
The body of Kang Ki-beom, with his entire abdomen torn off, was lying around.
“…huh?”
Accidents could not keep up with what had just happened.
The monster wasted three seconds just to realize that the body lying there like a rag was none other than Kang Ki-beom.
“what…!”
And the moment I recognized it.
The monster moved his head again and tried to look towards where Daesung was.
But
wow-.
My head didn’t move.
The monster who was maintaining ‘hidden’ was frozen like ice with his head tilted at an awkward angle.
“Stop making excuses and show your face.”
An emotionless and cold voice sounded clearly in the monster’s ears.
My head stopped while turning and my eyes were looking in the wrong direction, but I could clearly see the monster.
The fact that the white-haired human’s large hand was now grabbing the back of his head.
But you wouldn’t know this.
“There’s no way I can see myself, how can I…!”
“okay?”
Jiing-.
At this moment, Daesung’s eyes are turning purple.
[The Lord’s Eye is activated.]
“I can see you very clearly in my eyes.”
