The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 444
Episode 444. I will return when the time is right (1)
Everything is relative.
However, the absolute total amount cannot be overlooked.
The same goes for negative emotions.
Before Cataclysm.
Demons were rare on the Arcana continent.
The direction of negative emotions was also limited.
A pure-blood demon from the Arcana continent.
A mortal sin and an abomination.
seven deadly sins.
The reason why the Seven Deadly Sins treated the demons of the underworld as hybrids and blatantly reluctantly was simple. Because I didn’t want to divide the negative emotions of Arcana Continent, which is the source of power, with them.
In that sense, the power of the Seven Deadly Sins before the cataclysm was incomparably stronger than after the cataclysm. Furthermore, the same was true of primordial evil, which can be said to be the mother of the seven deadly sins.
“Dexio-sama…!”
Eucla, who was consumed by malice.
Why didn’t I notice him?
Simple.
“You held it down until the end, Yukla.”
It was thanks to Yukla’s resistance to malice to the end.
But because we were swayed by malice.
The one who absorbed the negative emotions swallowed Eucla.
Dexio muttered.
“We have to tell Akshan about our fault.”
Beware the evil of the beginning.
His malice is indistinguishable from our natural enemy relationship.
Don’t be discouraged though.
Deng.
Dexio looked at the struggling tentacles.
“What is that damn bell…!!”
Akkshan’s relic ‘Servant of Temperance’.
It was an artifact of Akkshan created to fight against the Seven Deadly Sins.
Because there is no chance to encounter the Seven Deadly Sins.
I couldn’t properly check its performance.
“Aaaaaagh! My ears are going to rot!!”
Seeing the by-product of primordial evil writhe in pain.
It seemed to have a great effect on the Seven Deadly Sins. Until Dexio became a fugitive. That was the reason Akkshan’s relics were stolen from Akkshan.
‘This must be just the beginning.’
Yukla was never weak.
The primordial evil that corrupted even the most valiant demon hunters was after Akkshan. Furthermore, the demon kings of the demon world are now preparing to spread their demons towards the Arcana continent.
‘Akkshan is a lone wolf.’
No one who could be called an ally to Akshan did not exist on the continent. There were dwarves, but they weren’t staying on the Arcana continent.
Yes.
empire too.
The Goddess Church too.
No one believed Akshan.
“This is why I had to show condescension.”
Dexio recalled the mission he had been through.
A mission to hunt demons and break the curse.
The reason for the poor packaging is simple.
Negative emotions fatten the devil.
In order to contain his fears, Akshan had to become smaller and smaller.
It had to become even more insignificant.
I had to get even more ridiculous.
Dexio smiled bitterly.
“Is this the result?”
Hard work has become a shepherd boy.
and.
That’s why I wanted to trust the man.
Grand Fel.
Even when he was cornered, he never backed down. Yes, even after filling the cup of humility with dark water, he had no fear.
Rather, I put a bluff on myself to the extent that it felt shameless.
– “Look if you want. If you can afford the consequences.”
Dexio laughed again.
“You don’t know what the water means.”
tears of humility.
If the one who takes the cup is humble, the cup is filled with tears.
That’s all.
That was the reason Dexio asked the question to Grandfel.
-“…Who are you?”
If it was the Grand Fel he had seen.
Obviously the glass had to be dry.
But the glass was full of black water.
The black water was embarrassingly unprecedented.
So, Dexio was just being flexible.
“Perhaps I longed for you, the lofty Grand Fel…”
He entrusted Akkshan to Grand Fel.
You may be able to straighten up Akkshan’s fallen authority. You may be able to prevent Akkshan from collapsing.
Because your upright pride will not be broken in front of any demons or trials.
“And this is my little greed…”
Maybe sometime in the future.
My achievements, of course.
The true value of all the achievements of Akkshan.
He thought that if it was Grandfel, he might be able to find out.
therefore.
“Everyone can rest in peace and close their eyes.”
Swoop.
Dexio looked at the fallen demon hunters.
The only one who survived was himself.
“Jiggi or Akkshan bastards.”
The tentacle approaches, spitting frivolous words.
I wasn’t afraid of death.
It was he who had gone through a hell worse than death.
Relic of Akshan?
That’s fine too. Because no one is looking for [Gulch of the Forgotten]. If it were at the bottom of the gorge… the relics of Akkshan in his bosom would not fall into the hands of others.
So it’s okay.
“Devil, there is nothing to rejoice about.”
Took.
Dexio drops the bodies of the demon hunters down the cliff. At the moment when even the tentacles were questionable, Dexio’s body plummeted down the cliff.
flutter.
“I didn’t back down from the devil, I just tripped.”
Akkshan’s cloak flying in the air.
Dexio closed his eyes.
chanted last.
“When the time comes, won’t everything find its place?”
Wouldn’t it be
Grandfell Cloudy…
What was it?
…Anyway, Romeo.
*
When I opened my eyes, I was on the top floor of the social space of space and time.
‘What happened?’
This entry was more questionable than certain income. Therefore, I was very concerned about the level of understanding of darkness as well as the proficiency of infant independence in heaven and earth.
[Understanding of Darkness (Curse): Significantly increases appropriate magic affinity. However, he must face the past, which is the source of suitable magical power. – Currently suitable magic affinity: 40%]
[Heaven and Heaven and Earth alone (40%): A rare genius who blasphemes even the unseen goddess. Grand Fell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo’s talent is demonstrated.]
A 10 percent increase is detectable, really.
Inwardly, swallowing a sigh of relief, I look back at the scenery I witnessed in [Understanding the Darkness]. Anyway, I know for sure about the Akshan Civil War.
‘I’m sure I’m out.’
I was the cause of Grandfel.
Click.
Of course, the main character of the incident was still shameless.
“It is true.”
Bring the teacup to your mouth.
Because it was lukewarm water in the first place.
No wonder it’s the way it is.
“Stable taste and aroma. It really deserves five stars.”
…You are very young.
Leaving Grandpel’s shopping satisfaction behind.
keep thinking
Dexio is the fugitive from Akkshan who stole the artifact. And seven demon hunters, including Yukla. Because he hastily swung his sword at me, not the devil.
‘According to the rules.’
I was convinced that I was leaving Akshan because I couldn’t stay there. However, the conversation I had with Dexio at the end was cryptic.
What does Dexio see in me?
Have you erased your doubts about me?
and.
– “When the time comes, won’t everything go back to its place?”
Why did you say such a plausible statement?
It was just equivalent to the Grandfel style of speech.
Is it just Akshan style of speech?
Curiosity preceded, but there was something more important than that.
‘We need to see if the reality has changed.’
Intervening in the past changes reality.
I don’t know which of the two comes first because I don’t have enough understanding of Kii. [Understanding the Darkness] means that the past and the present are closely connected. And what I learned while carrying out the [top-level space-time quest].
‘If so…’
Wouldn’t the ending of the Akkshan deserters, including Dexio, die in the canyon changed? Of course, if that happens, the whereabouts of the Akkshan artifacts could be a mystery.
“Even if it is said to be an irreplaceable relic, it is only material.”
There is nothing more precious than human life, right?
“It is fleeting.”
There’s no need to hesitate.
[Gallery of the Forgotten] I remember the coordinates clearly.
I leave the social space of time and space.
oh oh
A portal appeared immediately.
changing landscape.
I spit out my impressions of a revisit.
“Are you sure you left?”
[The Valley of the Forgotten], where the Shadow God left, had lost its gloomy aura. Weeds were sticking out on the land where there was no grass, and birds nesting on the dizzying cliffs were visible.
“I commend that judgment.”
If the shadow god hears it, it’s a while to move your steps while spitting out words that will make you sad. I reached the place where the remains of the Akshan fugitives had been laid. and then chanted
“I’m sorry.”
The remains of the fugitives remained intact.
However, unlike the first time, the outfit got used to the eyes.
A particularly old Akkshan outfit.
It must have been Dexio’s witnessed in [Understanding the Darkness].
‘I’m really sorry.’
But there were no artifacts.
The white bones remained intact, but only the relics disappeared. But there was no panic. Because it had magical powers. I immediately manifested magic and reenacted what happened here with magic particles.
and witnessed
An all-too-familiar silhouette. The silhouette of a huge man who can’t be forgotten once seen was definitely Rockkid’s. If so, he could also guess the silhouette of the woman next to him.
“Kitch.”
Kichi and Lockkid of the Shadow Mercenaries.
Two people know something about the artifact’s whereabouts.
Again, there’s no reason to delay.
Especially kitsch.
“Nothing is more important than a promise.”
It’s not once or twice, starting with breaking the promise to return, right?
I hope you can think of a plausible reason from now on.
Limited to the time commitment, the aftermath of Grandfel is no joke.
“I hope it is a valid reason.”
*
Rockkid searched the man’s arms.
“ha…?”
If it was normal, I would have been suspicious. They must have spit out swear words, saying, “You bastard bastards have already stolen things.”
however.
“…what could it be?”
Rockkid let out a chuckle.
Yes, it was Cloudy, no one else.
It wasn’t even that I couldn’t understand anything related to the nobleman who was crazy about tea time. What was in Lockkid’s hand was a ‘cup’ made of silver.
Let’s see, it’s a cup with a wolf drawn on the outside.
“…I want to have a drink.”
Lockkid recalled the scenery of Yusra Kingdom.
To be exact, the scenery of the Golden Calf Tavern.
The sight of the tavern was exceptionally clear.
It seemed as if the adventurers were sitting in front of them, and the owner’s nagging sounded in my ears. um yeah We must not leave out the magic tool of adventurers called a TV that reminds us of moving pictures.
“ah.”
Rockkid suddenly opened his mouth.
“Are you listening to kitsch…?”
The answer came.
“I am listening.”
“I’m sorry. I just remembered.”
“what?”
Rock Kid laughed.
“I haven’t paid off the credit yet.”
I laughed like I was out of breath.
It was definitely different.
Elsidore, it’s a feeling I haven’t felt when I’m beaten up by that dwarf, or when I’m on the verge of being hacked to death by a demon. Yes, this time was definitely a kaleidoscope.
Crying.
Lockid’s whole body was full of wounds. Blood gushed from all wounds. It was such an injury that the bleeding and the potion made by Alkari did not work.
So, Rockkid spat out his last will.
“…If you go back, pay off my debt first.”
Kitsch looked around at the silence.
“…”
This is how they all died.
Widespreads and shadow mercenaries.
After Lock Kid, everyone died.
it was annihilation
The contract with the Shadow God was still valid and harsh.
Even if only Kichi wanted to die, he couldn’t.
“…”
I survived alone and watched the annihilation of the shadow mercenaries.
What was left of Kichi was now stolen by the Broads.
There were only seven bits and pieces made of silver.
“You’re going to kill Cloudy with something like this…?”
After being stabbed in the back by the Shadow God.
It was like being scammed for the first time.
Kichi touched Rock Kid’s cold face.
“I traded you guys for something like this…?”
…that this was my pride?
really…?
It was the moment when Kichi’s pupils sank into emptiness.
Gooooh—
the seven silver clutter began to shine.
twisted past.
It became the butterfly effect and began to change reality.
“What are you so surprised about, Captain… isn’t that a deserter?”
Just like the hands of a clock go backwards.
Rock Kid who was cold.
No, the fact that all of the shadow mercenaries were revived.
dead though
because he didn’t die.
Tears streamed down Kitsch’s cheeks as he witnessed the whole truth.
“…Is it you again?”
A voice rang out as if to answer.
again.
