The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 11

Episode 11

Quazzzzzz That is…!!!

The red lightning pierced Yor’s body and scattered in all directions as it hit the ground.

[Thunderfire? This is amazing. [For a mere ten-year-old to use top-level… no, mythical-level magic.]

Of course, Somin’s attack couldn’t have worked on him of his stature.

[You’re doing something cute. [Kid.]

Rather, Yor smiled happily as he saw Somin’s magic.

[It wasn’t enough to have magical powers, so the first thing I learned was Sasangjuk… Namgung. As if you’re not enough, someone more interesting has emerged.]

“…Cough!!”

“Tsk!!”

After throwing away Namgoong and Myeonghun, Yor ran his hands through their clothes as if shaking off dust.

“Don’t come any closer.”

Somin raised both hands to stop Yor walking towards her.

“…uh?”

But at that moment, I felt dizzy, as if the world was turning upside down, along with a tingling headache. She felt nauseous, as if she was suffering from severe motion sickness, and her head hurt, so she collapsed to the floor.

[Neuhwa is a magic that requires the use of enormous magical power. Since the guy who had just gained magical power used it… it was bound to be overloaded.]

Yor

slowly walked towards Somin, who was lying down.

“Sister…”

The child, who had collapsed due to a loud binge, woke up and looked at Somin with a puzzled expression.

Startle-!!

However, the moment he felt Yor’s gaze, the boy lost strength in his legs and fell down.

Shudder….

As the child shivered, his pants became wet.

[Hmm, okay. This is normal.]

Yor passed the trembling child and stood in front of Somin.

[The bold kid looked straight at me. Namgung. In fact, your daughter interests me more than you. Why don’t you try changing the revealer at this point?]

“Shut up…!!”

Namgung grabbed the sword that Myeonghun had dropped and ran towards Yor.

[You really don’t mean to hit me with that. You would know what would happen if a Revelator attacked his Aspect. Don’t act like a brat.]

“If you touch my daughter, you’ll be in trouble. And if I die, the biggest loss will be you, right?”

[Anyway, the medicine… I don’t mean to do anything to your daughter. Rather, it is to help. [Such interesting material.]

When Yor placed his finger on Somin’s forehead, her complexion, which was sweating coldly and breathing heavily, instantly became calm.

[You should thank your daughter. The rest of the Aspects seem to be quite interested in this child. They seem to be somewhat satisfied, too. I guess we can just move on from this matter.]

He got up from Somin, who was sleeping, and spoke to Namgung.

[Don’t forget one thing. Now the Aspects will covet this child. Did you say you would protect your daughter? Try to struggle as you say.]

Yor said.

[Now, not only will you have to protect your daughter from monsters, but you will also have to protect this child from her status.]

“I will take care of the struggle, but you also can’t just fold your arms and watch. Have you forgotten who your revelator is?”

[of course. I will do my best to help my Revelator win. Whether it’s the right way or the wrong way.]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah…!!

At that moment, something appeared in Yor’s hand and he threw it at Namgung.

[It is given to those who capture the world boss. In fact, it is an item that will be created inside the Goblin Fortress after it is completed… You killed the Lord before the Fortress was built.]

That was a scroll.

[The Aspects offered to give it to me as a reward when the next door opens, but I took it from them. Isn’t this enough effort as a contract god? Isn’t it right?]

“It will depend on what’s in it. “Whether it will be poison or benefit.”

[Anyway, he never says anything pretty.]

Yor was amazed.

It is true that curiosity was aroused by the fact that Namgung was a returnee, but it was no exaggeration to say that his attitude toward Sang Sang was that of a nonchalant person.

If it were a different status, they might have punished him regardless of his status as a revealer.

No, that was natural.

‘I don’t understand why I’m looking at him like this.’

Among the eight people, he is by no means the one who stands on the good side.

[It’s strange.]

Yor shrugged and shook his head.

[Is this also an influence from the past?]

“Why is it surprising? The ones who created it in the first place…”

[Because we were not the ones who created the demons’ space-time formation.]

At that moment, unlike before, Yor’s voice was heard directly in Namgung’s head.

[And there is no longer that quest.]

“…What?”

[There are only 9 legendary level quests. We only make eight of them.]

“Then who makes the other one?”

At that moment, Yor looked at Namgung with a strange smile.

[You will find out when you pass through all the doors. I hope my revealer reaches the realm of phase.]

With those words, Yor disappeared.

“….”

Namgung looked silently at the spot where he had disappeared.

‘This is the first time I’ve had a conversation like this with Wisang.’

He survived for 25 years and had met Sang Sang several times in his previous life.

There were three phases in total that he saw, including Yor.

The feeling Namgung felt when he saw them was that it was inconceivable.

If there were people who had an imaginary majesty, there were also people who were like children, full of playfulness.

But they all had something in common.

‘The view on death is never the same as that of humans.’

Whether intentional or negligent, how many people would feel guilty if they stepped on an ant on the side of the road and killed it?

To the Aspects, humans are such beings.

A dignified person treats people more seriously, while a childish person kills people for fun.

‘We must be on guard again and again.’

That was the reason why Namgung treated Yor harshly.

No one goes against the status.

Maybe that’s why Yor is interested in him.

‘Because what the higher-ups want is not to save people, but just pleasure and interest.’

You have to keep stimulating them in whatever form it takes.

In fact, Namgoong felt like he was walking a tightrope.

“…dad!!”

Yor disappeared and Namgoong hugged Somin, who was lying down.

“I… just… that…!!”

Namgung stroked the head of his daughter, who could not speak properly, and listened to the sound of her daughter’s heart beating as if it would explode.

“It looks like Mom… protected us.”

He said, putting more strength into his arms.

“Mom…?”

Somin’s lips moved again at the name she missed.

“huh. So there is no need to be afraid.”

But once the crying started, it would not stop. Finally, as the sun began to set, Somin fainted and fell asleep in Namgoong’s arms.

‘I said I would protect you… but I got help from you, Suya.’

Namgung thought as he wiped away the tears that still remained on his daughter’s cheeks.

‘…thanks.’

The moment Somin absorbed the gem, he realized that the heroic spirit that escaped from his arms was his wife.

Sasangjutsu was a skill that even he had never seen before in 25 years.

That’s because wizards who use magical power and necromancers who use spiritual power were all jobs that could be obtained only if you had the qualifications.

Because the elemental and mental powers were completely different powers, it was nearly impossible to have both.

However, due to the intervention of his wife’s heroic spirit just before awakening, Somin came to possess the power of spiritual power in addition to his own power with magical qualities.

In other words, two powers are contained in one vessel.

‘Even if you have 25 years of memories, unexpected things always happen like this.’

It’s good if it’s as good as it is now, but the opposite can also happen.

On the other hand, Namgung felt that he should not let down his guard even more.

“I’m embarrassed. “It was just for a moment, but actually… I thought about whether I should kill that kid instead of you.”

Namgung also smiled bitterly at his words.

Actually, I thought that too.

It was inevitable for anyone to feel that the life of someone they did not know was more important than their own.

The Aspects must have tested it.

“Kid. What is your name.”

“… roaring. “It’s Choi Ho-seong.”

“Do you have any other family?”

The boy, who said his name was Hoseong, nodded to Namgung’s words.

“Father…”

Namgung muttered lowly, then swallowed his words when he remembered that this was the National Cemetery.

“A shelter will be built in Daejeon. I’ll take you there. “It would be safest there for now.”

“I too… I want to go with you!!”

He shouted in a trembling voice.

Namgung could fully understand the child’s feelings of fear.

But I couldn’t take him with me.

“I’m not saying I’m just trying to keep you away. The place we are going to in the future is much more dangerous than here. “It’s impossible to fight while protecting you too.”

“But…”

Namgung said, stroking the head of the crying child.

“Remember what I say from now on. Then we will definitely meet again.”

Hoseong nodded with a face full of tension.

“There will be a shelter in Dong-gu, Daejeon.”

Namgung said.

“There will be a person named Jin Soo-hyuk there. Follow him no matter what. Even if sometimes a situation arises that seems reckless, you must absolutely trust him.”

“Jin Soo-hyuk… Jin Soo-hyuk….”

Ho-seong thought over the name several times as if he never wanted to forget it.

‘Because he is the one who guarded Daejeon for the longest time.’

Jin Soo-hyuk, an armed man.

He has a special ability to make weapons and uses his abilities to build the strongest fortress in the world until the fifth gate of hell opens.

‘After that, his fortress eventually fell… but at least until then, it was the safest place in Korea.’

Namgoong thought it was time to move.

“Let’s hurry. “If we have to pick up Hoseong and get to Seoul before midnight, time will be tight.”

Myung-Hoon nodded at his words.

“But why do you want to go to Seoul? According to what you said, isn’t it safer here?”

“After the first gate of hell closes, it will appear in Seoul.”

“…That?”

Namgung raised his head and spoke in a low voice.

“Dungeon.”
