The Player Returns After 10,000 Years Episode 419

The Darkness Over the Future (1)

[Cool! Cool!]

Borrowing the body of Iris, Elune, who was strong, let out a harsh cough while covering her mouth with one hand.

Are you okay? Seolah Han approached

and used

healing magic toward Elune .

A pure white light streamed into Elune’s body.

Elune’s expression, which had been coughing violently, became more stable. As if surprised, she opened her eyes round and looked back at Han Seol-ah.

[How can Seraphim’s energy reach you…]

Uh, that’s…

Han Seol-ah slurred with a puzzled expression.

She herself did not know why

the Seraphim’s soul entered her .

When awkward silence flowed between Seolah Han and Elune, Kangwoo quickly looked at Elune with narrow eyes.

‘what? Didn’t the spirit change happen properly?’

As Leila said, the divinity she felt from Elune was too unstable.

It is like seeing a seriously injured patient.

And now, the appearance of Iris vomiting blood is like…

‘It’s similar to when I first met Leila.’

At the time, Leila was sitting in a wheelchair and even lost her eyesight.

The reason why she was in such a state was that Gaia was injured when a large hole was formed in Earth’s ‘Star Guard’ due to the invasion of the demon of prophecy. ‘Humans who are chosen as incarnations are affected by the state of that god.

talking about that

‘Is Elune injured?’

The question of why first

crossed my mind.

Elune was told that, unlike other gods, Elune

was in a dimension where a huge tree called the ‘World Tree’ existed. ‘Did you say it is an important tree that supports the world of three elements?

The tree said to have been created by Yggdrasil, the titan of past life, was the World Tree.

Douglas said that Yggdrasil created the high elves as guardians of the World Tree, and that the elves were derived from the high elves.

‘The World Tree

is obviously protected by an incredibly strong protective shield. I heard

***

In the days of mythology, the protective shield protecting the world tree was so strong that even when the demon Bauli was rampaging to destroy the world of the three elements, he could not approach the place where the world tree was located.

However, if Elune was injured’,

it meant that a fairly big problem was occurring there. Lord Elune. [Ah, savior.]

After being treated by Han Seol-ah, Elune, who had calmed down even more, turned his head toward Kang-woo.

[Eh?] Meanwhile, Elune’s eyes widened. [How come?]

Elune looked around in disbelief.

She looked back at Kim Si-hoon and Kang-woo, who stood behind Kang-woo, and opened her mouth wide with a shocked expression.

[Old saviors… two or two?]

Yes?

uh fuck

An eerie feeling ran down Kang Woo’s spine.

He bit his lip harshly. ‘Damn it, it wasn’t me.’

As he gained the godship of brilliance and his reputation spread throughout the continent through the Gwangmyeong Bridge, he naturally thought that he had been chosen as the savior.

But his expectations were misplaced.

‘The main character was that bastard.

Kang-woo put his hand on his forehead and bit his lip.

I’ve been wandering around so much lately that I’ve missed the most important fact.

The fact that he is not a savior, but a demon of prophecy that will bring an end to the world. [Obviously according to the prophecy… No, the prophecy doesn’t quite fit.]

Elune muttered in confusion.

Kang Woo put his hand on her shoulder in confusion to change the topic.

Lord Elune. calm down. [Ah…]

What’s more? Suddenly vomiting blood… Was there something wrong with Iris’s body? [no. It’s not like that. Rather, the one with the problem… is me.]

Elune lowered her head with a stiff expression.

***

As if sorry for hurting her like this, she touched the blood on Iris’ clothes.

Is something going on? [ ….]

Elune bit his lip and grabbed the hem of his clothes.

Kang-woo stopped bothering her and waited for the next words to follow.

Soon, Elune’s mouth opened. [The World Tree… has started to rot.] Yes?

Could it have rotted? [Of course, this is not a natural phenomenon.]

Elune shook his head and continued.

[Someone is intentionally corrupting the World Tree.]

…Who is that?

[That’s… we haven’t found the culprit yet. The source of the high elves’ power is the world tree. But the world tree suddenly rotted away…]

Is the condition so serious that you can’t properly maintain your divinity?

Elune nodded quietly.

Kang Woo clicked his tongue.

‘If only Elune, the head of the High Elves, would vomit blood as soon as he had a spirit.

There was no need to think about what happened to the other high elves.

‘This isn’t good.

Kang Woo frowned. Now, Elune’s condition is only slightly better than Gaia’s condition when Gaia’s system was punctured.

In this state,

‘Can we trace the demon’s corpse?’

The ultimate goal of meeting the high elves was to find out where the demon’s corpse was located.

However, with Elune’s physical condition now, it seemed distant to want to track down the demon’s corpse. ‘No, no.’

Elune could have known where the body was located without the need to track down the demon’s body.

Lord Elune. [Yes]

We are looking for the demon’s corpse. Do you know anything about him?

[Ah…]

A short exclamation flowed from Elune’s mouth.

She lowered her head as if guilty, and opened her mouth hesitantly.

[sorry. As the World Tree rotted this time… I can hardly use the power to detect demons.]

Did you know anything before?

[…Do you know what the corpse of the Demon God sealed in Ernore Continent is?]

Kang-woo nodded at her question.

Before coming to Erno, I had a memory of hearing it directly from Gaia. I heard that it is the heart of a demon. [yes. you’re right. It is the part where the demon Bauli’s greatest strength is concentrated, and it is the part that plays a decisive role in reviving him.] He

continued in a low voice. [After the war with the Demon God, Gaia-sama asked me to seal it in a barrier that changes position at regular intervals to prevent the Demon God from reviving again. So that no one can find out the location of the World Tree without selecting it.]

Now wait! That means…

Cha Yeon-joo, who had been listening quietly, stood up from her seat with a stiff face.

If the position changes at regular intervals.

You’re saying that there’s no way to find the demon’s corpse anymore…

A voice that felt even futile came out of her mouth.

The same goes for Kang Woo who doesn’t have a good expression.

‘It’s sealed in a barrier that changes location?’

He let out a deep sigh and shook his head.

If that was true, it would have been impossible to find the demon’s heart without Elune’s help. ‘What the fuck.’

I barely swallowed the nauseous feeling that had risen from the unexpected development.

If even the high elves didn’t know its location, I was thinking of just scouring the entire continent, but it turned into nothing.

‘I have to get Elune’s help unconditionally.’

Then

there was only one way left. Is there any way to resurrect the World Tree again?

Kang Woo put his hand on Elune’s shoulder and asked.

[…Yes.]

Whoa.

A sigh of relief flowed from Kang Woo’s mouth.

What’s the way?

[The culprit that is now corrupting the World Tree is the ‘black thorn’ stuck in its root.]

Is it a black thorn?

[yes. I’m not sure what it really is… but it’s certain that the black thorns are messing with the inside of the World Tree and absorbing its energy.] That’s right.

Kang Woo nodded lightly.

When I heard about the demon’s heart, it was dark in front of my eyes as to what to do next, but after knowing the solution, my heart felt much lighter.

So, can I just remove the thorn?

[…yes. Ha, but right now, the energy of the world tree is raging there, so it’s very dangerous!]

Elune shouted with her sharp ears quivering.

Kang Woo let out a big smile.

He slowly turned his head and looked around at the party members.

They were nodding their heads without saying anything.

Kang Woo turned his head toward Elune again and spoke softly.

it’s okay. We will remove the thorns that are corrupting the World Tree.

[Ah…]

A short exclamation flowed from Elune’s mouth.

She rolled her eyes and lowered her head.

I could see her thin shoulders trembling.

Perhaps because it was Iris’ body, the image of her when she was saved from Fidelio’s hand and the image of Elune now overlapped.

[thank you. Really… Thank you very much!]

Elune lowered her head and said.

Kang Woo looked down at her and smiled awkwardly.

‘I don’t think he’s the highest god at all.’

I didn’t feel the slightest bit of divine majesty. ‘Whatever.’

I didn’t even have to think that this side was much easier to handle than Gaia’s personality.

[May the path ahead of the saviors be filled with blessings.]

Elune gathered both hands together and prayed.

The green light emanating from her body spread widely throughout the room.

– Tring.

[I received the blessing of Elune!] [All stats increase by 5.]

‘Ah, I thought I had stats.’

Now that the increase in demonic stats has reached a point where it doesn’t mean much, I completely forgot about it.

thank you

Still, it was natural that it was better to have a stat rise than not to rise. [I don’t know why there are two saviors, contrary to the prophecy… But

I believe that if there are saviors like these two, the end of the world can be prevented.]

I looked up to the savior.

She stood up from her seat with staggering steps.

[Laugh…!] Ah! Watch out Joe! Layra quickly supported Elune’s body as it was about to fall.

[Thank you, the incarnation of Gaia.] Elune lightly bowed his head toward Leila and slowly moved toward Kangwoo and Kim Sihun.

[Can you come over to me for a moment?]

Yes.

All right. Kangwoo and Kim Sihun exchanged glances for a moment before moving closer to Elune.

Elune held Kang Woo and Kim Si Hoon’s arms with both hands and closed his eyes.

[I can’t exert much strength because my godhead is unstable, but… I’ll try to shed some light on the future of the two of you.]

Uuuuuuuuu!

A dark green light emanated from Elune’s body.

Kangwoo slightly frowned as if he couldn’t predict what she was going to do.

An example of the future.

Douglas, who quietly approached him as if to answer his question, spoke. … When did you come?

It’s an opportunity to see the high elves I’ve devoted my whole life to researching, and I can’t miss it.

Douglas continued with a grin.

What Elune wants to do for you is an ability unique to the High Elves.

Are you talking about foreshadowing the future?

Precisely, it warns of future dangers in advance. It’s not accurate enough to be called a prophecy.

At Douglas’ explanation, Kang Woo

lightly nodded.

‘It’s a threat from the future.’

I thought it was funny. He’s always been with a threat and it’s over him.

Even if he warned them now, there would be no inspiration.

‘Whatever.

At least it didn’t seem like there was anything to lose. [ ….]

Elune concentrated on holding Kang Woo and Kim Si Hoon’s hands.

A green light that feels warm like the sunlight in the forest wrapped around the two people’s bodies. [Ah ah.]

And

Elune’s mouth opened. [How come? What the heck why…] She shuddered in disbelief.

Kangwoo and Kim Sihoon looked at Elune, who was shaking with a puzzled expression.

[Huh-uh-huh-huh!] Elune sighed heavily and

sat down.

Sihun Kim carefully supported her as she fell.

…Is there a problem?

Kang-woo asked in a low voice.

[Ah…]

Elune trembled with a bluish expression.

[This is strange…] Is it strange? [W Your future… Oh, all the roads to go forward…]]

Tight.

bite your lips

[It’s covered in a huge darkness. Endless abyss… I’m with you all the way you walk!!]

Huh?

[This can’t be possible… It’s not at the level of imminent danger! Ha, there is not a single moment when the darkness has fallen!]

Wait a minute.

[Ahhh. great titan. How could such a gruesome fate befall these pitiful saviors!]

Elune shed tears with her eyes tightly closed.

Kangwoo slightly avoided Elune’s gaze.

Kang Woo and Kim Si-hoon.

A huge darkness hung over the path ahead of the two saviors.

The identity of the abyss whose end is unknown.

…looks like me?’

[Huh. The big black sea…will swallow the old savior…]

That’s me fuck.
