Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 99
# 99
099
Daesung, who was curious, pushed himself into the gate again.
But nothing changed.
When I overlapped the gate and my body, the scenes of reality shimmered like a haze, but I could not enter the other world.
Meanwhile, Seong Chan-ho, who was checking his smartphone, suddenly discovered something and opened his mouth.
“It’s not just here. “There are reports coming in from other places as well.”
The KHA site appeared on Seong Chan-ho’s cell phone.
Posts began to be posted one by one on a dedicated bulletin board set up to receive complaints from hunters.
“「I can’t enter the gate I reserved.」… Looks like the other places are the same?”
“….”
A common phenomenon was occurring across the country.
Gate cannot be entered.
This does not mean that the cause of this sudden situation is completely unknown.
‘Of course. It definitely has something to do with the destruction of Honsei.’
Daesung remembered Ramish, whom he had seen not long ago.
Strictly speaking, the gate is not really an entrance to another world.
The identity of the gate is ‘Orb’, a mechanical device created by the Honsei Gishin tribe.
And the field inside the orb is nothing more than a virtual space artificially created by the Gishin tribe.
‘It is the Gishin tribe who control the orbs and hold the power to create them.’
However, with the collapse of the Honsei, the Gishin tribe that held that authority also died.
then.
‘The orb left on Earth… It is clear that some kind of error occurred in the Gate due to the destruction of the Gishin tribe.’
Other than that, there were no other hypotheses that came to mind.
No, that prediction is probably correct.
However, there was still one question that remained unresolved.
‘This wasn’t written down in the information I checked the day before yesterday?’
Why didn’t the information in the store window reveal this important fact? That was a bit questionable.
At this time, Fly, who had remained silent as if he could not bear to see the Absolute in confusion, suddenly spoke up.
[I believe it is probably ranked 4th most important information, so the system could not detect it. My lord.]
‘…Yes.’
It was a simpler reason than I thought, so Daesung lost his temper.
For reference, the third-ranked piece of information was that Jisoo, who broke up with her boyfriend, was taking out her anger on Daesung.
When considering the weight of importance, the information about the family was clearly heavier than the Life Stone, which was not difficult to collect.
‘Then is there no way to collect life stones right away?’
no. If this error continues permanently, you will not be able to collect lifestones ‘now’ but ‘in the future’.
‘shit. ‘That’s a bit troublesome.’
I was very annoyed when I heard that I had collected more than half of the items and it was cut off halfway through.
For some reason, I felt like all the hassle I had endured was in vain.
‘I need an alternative method.’
Of course, there was no need to unlock the power of < Connection >.
But I was also curious.
Above all, his stubbornness, which would never let go unless he saw the end, could not tolerate stopping here.
‘There is no way. I don’t know if it will work or not until I check it.’
As soon as he realized that the gate was useless, an alternative method popped into his head.
While Daesung was lost in thought, Seong Chan-ho scratched his head.
“Hey, what on earth is this? Daesung, since this has come to an end, let’s get a refund starting with the winning bid fee.”
“I leave the refund processing to you, Chanho. “I’ll go first.”
“what?”
Are you going first?
The moment Seong Chan-ho was about to ask that question turned his gaze towards Daesung.
[< Handaeseong Annihilation Dragon > is summoned from the seal of embodiment.]
Grrrr!
Flames spewed out violently from Daesung’s palm, which had a seal drawn on it.
Eventually, as the flame solidified into the shape of an annihilating dragon, the onlookers outside the barricades let out an exclamation.
“Wow.”
“It’s really boring to see it in real life.”
While everyone’s eyes lit up and they took out their cell phones and repeatedly pressed the photo button, Seong Chan-ho asked with a puzzled face.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m going to the officetel first. “Follow me slowly.”
“Is there anything urgent?”
“I want to check something quickly.”
Huh!
The annihilating dragon flapped its wings and flew up into the sky.
It took less than 3 minutes to get from Eungam-dong to the officetel in Mok-dong.
It is a place where no one can see because the entire building belongs to Daesung.
He summoned the door leading to the Pantheon without hesitation.
‘Where…’
Daesung entered the Pantheon and stood face to face with Ilji without delay.
‘Let me check.’
Is it true that even if you kill the demonic beast of hell embodied by the Pantheon, you will still get a life stone?
It would be great if there was a field that could achieve 100% collection rate in one go.
And of all the fields of hell he knows, there is only one place that is the most suitable.
‘Spider Valley.’
Daesung immediately gave a command to the system to activate the log.
[Carry out the commands of the Absolute.]
[Page 46: Re-enter the area you entered on day 93 of the year -14.]
The pure white space continued to mutate for a while.
As a damp wind passed through his hair, a dark canyon unfolded.
Hwareuk-!
Daeseong spoke in an indifferent tone while implementing the Fire Flame Sword.
“Summon the master.”
[100 baby Saju have been recreated in the field.]
If you burn and kill about 100 cubs, the remaining collection rate will be filled.
Of course, there is a prerequisite that the devil of hell must spit out a life stone when he dies.
square-. square-.
The sound of insects literally crawling made the darkness of the canyon even more gloomy.
400 pairs of purple eyes flashed like stars in the night sky.
Kkei-?
at that time.
The young masters hesitated.
This is because they realized that the enemy they had to deal with was the lord of hell whom they served with all loyalty.
The legs that were trotting vigorously in the darkness twitched as if to express hesitation.
“okay. “Don’t bother me, just stay still.”
If the other side recognizes the owner first and does not attack him, this is welcome.
Daeseong, facing 100 cubs, raised his sword above his head.
“I’ll finish it without any pain.”
Kiyi-!
As soon as the cubs who were caught in a situation where they couldn’t do this or that started screaming in pain.
[The first special skill of the ‘flame’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Rage >] The great sword
that fell leaving an afterimage shot out a storm of flames with the force to collapse the entire area.
Woe-eak!
The cubs caught in the blow burned up without even screaming, probably because they had already given up on life.
The pitch-black canyon at night glowed with red light.
And it wasn’t just because of the flames erupting from the great sword.
[Would you like to obtain the ‘Dimension Race Life Stone (x100)’? Yes / No]
A life stone that glows red over the remains of the cubs who have turned into ashes.
The emerald-shaped stone illuminated the deep darkness of the canyon.
“I should have done this a long time ago.”
The lifestone also appeared on the demonic beast that Pantheon embodied.
After collecting exactly 100 life stones at once, a message with rewarding words appeared in front of him.
[Current collection rate: 100%]
[You have achieved all the conditions required to unlock the information of power.]
Flap!
Daesung immediately opened < The Book > and checked the information on the power.
Access
< Power Information >
[The highest level of Hekkar’s spiritual secret art that has developed over a long history.] [The
red jewel made from the blood and flesh of the dimensional race will soon become the key to open the passage to the galaxy, allowing the user It will lead you to countless crossroads.]
[You can access the Plane portal connected to the multi-universe.] [
After using this power, a huge burden will be placed on the user’s soul. .]
Daesung’s frown frowned.
The message was long and verbose, but at the same time it was difficult.
‘To put it simply…’
The information that can be obtained is that it can be accessed through a plane portal connected to the path of the multiverse.
Aside from that, there wasn’t a single line about the rest of the information, which was hard to count.
‘What is certain is that it is not a power used to simply attack enemies.’
It was a type whose identity was not revealed until you tried it yourself.
Rather than the fact that the information was unlocked, the significance should be placed on the fact that the use of power became possible.
However, I was hesitant about whether I could use this ambiguous power simply because I was curious.
Plus the last message.
I was also concerned about the warning sentence about the enormous burden it places on the soul.
‘You have to be careful.’
There was no reason to collect lifestones if you were not going to use them in the first place.
However, we cannot take lightly the warning that something is wrong with our soul just because we feel that the hard work was a waste.
Sitting cross-legged, he hesitated and hesitated again.
at that time.
A message was suddenly created in front of him, who was weighed down by thoughts and conflicts.
[The demonic beasts of Pandemonium await the decision of the Absolute.]
After Daeseong gave an unholy command to remain as quiet as possible.
The demonic beasts of Pandemonium, who had been really quiet, broke their silence for the first time in a long time and sent a signal towards him.
‘Are you waiting for my decision?’
Which decision are they talking about?
Who uses it? Which one is not used?
[The demons of Pandemonium say they are ready to respect whatever decision the Absolute makes.] In
short, it meant that they would keep their mouths shut so as not to interfere with their independent choices.
“okay?”
Thanks to this, Daesung was able to develop his thoughts without wavering.
It was a time when long ago continued endlessly.
[A certain demon gives an oath that he will never harm the soul of the Absolute.]
[Other demon beasts agree with the oath.]
The demon beasts of Pandemonium understood very well the hesitation of the monarch they revered.
That’s why they send that message.
“How are you going to protect my soul?”
Even if beings who only occasionally sent signals from an unknown space made such an oath, it had no credibility at all.
The demonic beasts of Pandemonium were also silent, as if they had no idea how to explain it.
Apart from their oaths and their signals.
After much deliberation, Daesung made his final choice.
‘Write.’
After thinking about it, I thought it would be better to use this power.
Even if it causes some harm to the soul.
‘If we can go to a place connected to the multiverse, we might get one step closer to the secrets of heaven.’
Over the past two years, he has defeated the Heavenly Transcendant several times.
However, every time he tried to intimidate them and get information about the person called ‘Jushin’, he failed every time.
This is because whenever a transcendental person who could not overcome the threat tried to reveal information, the so-called ‘apostles’ would kill the transcendental person by remotely detonating the weapon from an unseen place.
“….”
Also.
Scenes seen in the memories of Ramish and Elhaim.
There, celestial beings sealed the dimensions of the universe one by one with giant chains.
There was no guarantee that the chains would not come to Earth.
To prevent that, information about ‘Heaven’ is needed.
And I had a strong intuition that the power of < Connect > was another means of accessing the secret.
“…good.”
Daesung made up his mind and closed his eyes.
And I used the power of < Connection >.
[The authority < Connection > is activated.]
[Connect through the plane portal. It takes 14 days to connect.]
[Connecting through plane portal.]
[Remaining time: < 336:59:58 >]
“What?”
He frowned when he saw that the ‘remaining time’ message was displayed.
“….”
The tension that had been controlling my body shrunk like a deflated balloon due to the explanation that I would have to wait two weeks.
A sigh full of emptiness flowed from Daesung’s mouth.
“Did you mention it in advance?”
I was tense for no reason.
Daesung, who could no longer find a reason to stay here, soon returned to reality.
***
And a week passed.
New York. In front of the headquarters of the International Hunter Federation.
There was not a single space to step in there because of the reporters and people from the broadcasting station who came from all over the country.
“There are 10 minutes left.”
“Start standby! “You must not miss even a second of the cold weather hunter!”
“Catch the perfect angle! Especially when the Han Daeseong hunter comes down riding a dragon! “If you film it well and close up, the viewership ratings will explode!”
There is a sense of war among reporters who have to steal even 0.1% of viewer ratings from other broadcasting stations.
“President Hiroshi Sakai, cancel the hearing right now!”
“No to hearings! Oppose the hearing!”
“Is this the way to treat a hero who saved the world?”
Some of the citizens who flocked like a cloud shouted protest slogans at the top of their voices, holding pickets that said ‘Oppose the hearing.’
It is not that there are no opinions in favor that Daesung should reveal the whole truth at the hearing.
However, there was an overwhelming amount of opposition, saying they could not accept the fact that the hearing was being held.
Hearing hall.
Association officials and representatives from 16 countries and President Sakai stared at the only empty seat left in the venue.
It was none other than Daesung’s witness stand where he would soon be sitting.
‘Today, that suspicious bare face will be exposed without a trace.’
Whether you defend him or not, there are many things to question.
President Sakai was secretly looking forward to what kind of testimony he would give and what kind of plausible excuse he would make.
‘That guy must be a monster or a human in communication with a monster.’
And I had a vague feeling that Daesung must have done something wrong with the recent incident of not being able to enter the gate.
I will dig into everything, including that. President Sakai pledged as he took a sip of bottled water.
yet.
The hour hand struck 5 p.m. sharp.
If all goes according to plan, it is time for Daesung to arrive at the federation headquarters.
“….”
But why?
There was no news of his arrival at headquarters.
“what?”
I wondered if I might be a little late, so I waited for another 5 minutes.
But the vacancy was not filled.
There was no sign of the hearing room door opening.
“What is it?”
President Sakai asked, glaring at Association President Park Jeong-ho, who was sitting on the left side.
Park Jeong-ho also looked like he didn’t know what was going on.
“Are you sure you sent the official document?”
“I definitely sent it.”
“What is the answer?”
“There was no answer.”
“….”
President Sakai’s face, which was already full of wrinkles, suddenly turned grim and many wrinkles appeared.
“…Let’s contact them.”
“yes yes. “Please excuse me for a moment.”
Park Jeong-ho bowed his head and asked for understanding and quickly took out his cell phone.
My sweat-soaked hand pressed down the number that went directly to Daesung.
***
Turr-
The name ‘Association President Park Jeong-ho’ appeared on Daesung’s cell phone screen.
“What are you doing? Take it.”
“….”
Jisoo said that, but Daesung didn’t respond at all.
Daesung, who had been staring at the cell phone that was ringing non-stop, looked forward.
There.
“Wow, the air is amazing.”
“It’s a good thing you came. Right, Mom? Son Yun -seop’s stress is relaxed because of the dog’s bastard. Wow!”
“Don’t you know that you’ve been talking about her for a week, saying you’ll just forget about it? And please speak politely in front of your mother.”
Jisoo and Hyejeong were grilling pork belly while chatting trivially.
Daeseong’s family was enjoying camping in a mountain with clear air.
It wasn’t a bad outing for the whole family to enjoy after a long time.
– Beep.
Daesung turned off his cell phone, which was ringing loudly.
Jisoo was looking at the pork belly being grilled on the grill in fascination and suddenly asked.
“What kind of transition is this?”
“spam.”
After giving a short answer, he squatted down next to Jisoo and watched the pork belly being cooked.
Hyejeong asked in a slightly worried tone as she turned the meat over with tongs.
“But Daesung.”
“uh.”
“…Is it okay for you to stay here? Everything is fine, but Mom is a little worried about that…”
It was about the hearing, something you would never know about if you had a TV at home.
Hyejeong came along on the outing, believing that her son would take care of everything, but she still felt uneasy.
But every time she asked if he was okay, Daesung’s answer was very consistent.
“Why am I going there?”
