Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 672
My life was like a long cave.
There wasn’t a single light, so I couldn’t see an inch in front of me.
I had come too far to go back and couldn’t even think about it.
Nevertheless, it is a life without even the hope that there will be an end to moving forward.
I walk and walk endlessly.
If I tripped and fell, I stood up and walked again.
When I was scared of the dark and my body trembled, I held back and started walking again.
That’s how I lived.
No, is it correct to say that I lived?
I asked myself and also answered.
If you ask a question, I answer.
Someone should have done it, so I just did it.
Then, I asked the answer again.
Can you really make an excuse because it was something you had to do?
Is there a cause and belief in that act?
‘…’
I didn’t answer.
It’s true that it couldn’t be done.
You know it.
That nothing like that exists within me.
Since when did you dream of consultation?
I never dreamed.
I never had it or wanted it in the first place.
So, what is my cause?
What did you live your life for?
I was swept away by the rushing current and could not hold on.
First of all, let me make an excuse.
I couldn’t help it.
It was the best I could do.
Otherwise I die.
So I had no choice but to do it.
I lived thinking like this.
‘really?’
If I asked again, the answer was decided.
‘no.’
These are all self-excuses.
It would be better if you never went into the cave in the first place.
Even though I knew it, I walked in on my own.
why? There was no other place to run to.
So I went in and searched endlessly.
The one who pushed my back.
Someone pushed my back into the cave, and since I live like this, I had to have someone to blame.
Even when I shiver in the dark.
Even when I walk aimlessly, unable to find hope.
And then, when I collapse from exhaustion and cry.
I looked for someone to blame.
I knew it.
I already knew that I couldn’t blame anyone.
only.
I just needed someone to blame because I couldn’t admit it.
It was that kind of life.
A life that disappears in the darkness after running away and not being able to reach the end of the cave.
A life like a bug that ran away and died without being able to see the light.
He lived and died like that and returned.
I never thought it was a miracle.
I’m afraid to even express my happiness because it’s something I’ve never hoped for.
I just live because I got it. Let’s live a slightly different life this time.
Let’s live in the mountains without anyone noticing, not even mice or birds.
That’s what I thought.
‘It didn’t go as planned.’
Nothing really works out the way I want it to.
The gust of wind that I couldn’t stop swept me away again.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in the eye of a typhoon.
‘It wasn’t something that could have been avoided.’
Was fate something that a mere human could not have prevented?
Will we eventually get caught up in the chaos?
If so, what should I do?
I am.
What should I do?
‘What are you worrying about?’
‘I said,’ he said.
‘Just make sure it doesn’t happen like that.’
If you have no choice but to get swept away.
Let’s make the blowing wind shallower.
Or, let’s make it so that the wind doesn’t blow.
Wouldn’t that work?
Cheeeeeek-!
The fever rises.
The boiling emotions affected my eyeballs.
Energy seeps into my body.
There is a foreshadowing in front.
If I leave it as is, it will become the wind and sweep me away.
It will be a typhoon that will shake not only me but the whole world.
Therefore, you must chew and swallow before blowing.
It must be dealt with now, before it becomes a bigger disaster.
For what?
Taking the place of the divine sword.
‘To save the world in the end…’
…
…
Save the world?
‘I?’
Quad deuk–!!
bang-!
Tam, which was flying towards Cheonma, changed its angle and crashed into the tree next to it.
Saaaa….
The toms stuck in the trees were unable to cause direct damage except by power, so they became fog and dispersed.
As I changed the angle of the ride, I had to stiffen my body and look at the Heavenly Demon.
“Hoo…hoo…hoo.”
Heat-filled breathing flows out harshly.
My body feels hot as the emotions fill my head.
“Haa…hu….”
I took a deep breath and covered my forehead with my palm.
Something was strange.
save the world
I stiffened at the words I thought to myself.
“Huuuuu…huuuuuuuuuuuu…!”
I cool my stiff head through my harsh breathing.
‘Am I going to save the world?’
The reason I came up with was too narrow-minded.
‘Who is saving what?’
Kill the Heavenly Demon to save the world.
Take on the position of the divine sword and save the world.
It was done for that reason.
But.
‘Do I have the qualifications to do that?’
Sreuk.
When I think of this thought, my hands relax.
“…Haa… Ha….”
I forgot what my first purpose was after returning in the first place.
‘I live on the run for a while.’
That was my goal.
I have to live my life running away from what I have done and what will happen in the future.
Obviously that was the goal.
As things became more complicated and intertwined, didn’t you start to think differently?
Now that we have something to protect, let’s prevent bloodshed.
This is what started.
We must move for the things we must protect, regardless of means or methods.
That’s how I understood it.
Doesn’t hesitate to kill someone.
Those who would have been killed in a previous life are caught and turned into demons.
Most of them were people who would later use them and kill them.
There were some I was going to use and then throw away, and there were some I was going to use as a shield.
I chose to do this because I am a murderer, but I already know that it is not the right thing to do.
But I didn’t care.
There are no regrets, and the guilt has long since been thrown to the ground.
That’s how you prepare.
Is this really something to save the world?
‘Maybe so.’
The goal you are aiming for may be like that.
one.
‘Do you really think that’s what it’s for?’
What we do to save the world.
Did I really think that way?
I get goosebumps.
‘Where did it start to get ruined?’
The thoughts that came to my mind almost took my breath away.
Don’t you already know?
That I have no interest in saving the world.
That’s just a bonus.
‘It doesn’t matter whether this world collapses or not.’
Since when did I start thinking I was a hero?
It feels like something is wrong.
My feverish head is slowly cooling down.
The pupils began to return to their original state.
Only then can you see it.
Pop-.
The Heavenly Demon is looking here, bleeding.
His eyes look somewhat sad, and blood flows from the corner of his mouth.
The eyes were annoying.
Is it because their eyes look so damn similar? It was even more annoying.
Yet, I am asking this question from within.
‘That bleeding woman.’
Is it really the disaster you think it is?
‘If it’s not a disaster, what is it?’
I held my thoughts tightly.
It only makes me stop because it looks exactly like Wei Seol-ah.
I’m sure it will.
How to kill the Heavenly Demon.
No, I gained hope that I could kill it.
My ride can even rip off the power of the Heavenly Demon. I felt that confident.
If you do that, you can just rush in and chew it up right away.
“Why didn’t you avoid it?”
My mouth was asking a question to the Heavenly Demon.
“…”
“You could have easily avoided it. “Why didn’t you avoid it?”
The membrane broke.
As a result, the Heavenly Demon was hit by the Flame Jade, but in reality, it was avoidable.
But the Heavenly Demon did not avoid it.
It was the same as before. He was dragged in by something he didn’t need to be dragged in, and instead of counterattacking my attacks, he was hit by all of them.
“Just like that, you. “You were thinking about this too, right?”
Tam rushed towards the curtain of the Heavenly Demon.
If he had eyes, he would know.
Toms can swallow by chewing their membranes.
Sigh.
I could see the Heavenly Demon’s broken membrane regenerating.
It can be simply broken, but it seems impossible to completely eliminate it.
Even so, the ability to create opportunities is no different.
Then, since it wasn’t enough to avoid the tom, the guy just watched the tom attack.
“Why didn’t you avoid it? “Did you think you would win even without me?”
“…”
“Answer me. “What on earth were you thinking?”
“It seems like you want to do that.”
“what?”
Cheonma calmly answers my harsh question.
“You look uncomfortable. I heard you want to do that. “That’s why it was there.”
“What do you mean? Answer straight…”
“No?”
The words I was trying to say were momentarily blocked by the words while tilting my head.
But it was only a moment.
“So, are you willing to die?”
I tried to beat him, so he beat me.
If you say you were dragged because you tried to drag him.
Since they are trying to kill me now, does that mean I plan on dying eventually?
Cheonma answered that question right away.
“I wouldn’t have killed him.”
I ground my teeth in subtle confidence.
“That’s terrible. Does what I did just now seem like some sort of house play?”
It looked like he was struggling to kill it somehow.
How can you be so fucking sure?
“I wouldn’t have done that.”
“therefore. “Why are you so sure?”
“I don’t know. But I think so. furthermore.”
The Cheonma wiped away the last of the blood with his sleeve.
“My sister told me not to fight carelessly.”
“…under.”
Grumbling!
I had a flame at my fingertips.
Repeat compression and rotation to cast the spear.
A lot more energy has seeped into me than when I first wrote it.
A limit that I can limit and control.
It is 30% of the bet amount.
If the holy spear used earlier was enough, it was three times more than that.
“You think you can’t kill me?”
That’s not a funny thing to say. It’s not just anyone else, it’s a thousand people in front of me.
No matter how much it looks and feels different from my memories.
This means that it is no different from being a being who caused bloodshed in a past life.
But you think you can’t kill someone like that?
“Stop fucking with me.”
He aimed the completed Holy Spear in front of the Heavenly Demon.
“If you’re not going to rebel, you might as well stay where you are. “Because it’s easier.”
Don’t be fooled by that appearance.
“I’m going to kill you here.”
“…”
Despite the warning, the Heavenly Demon had no reaction.
He just looks at me with his purple eyes.
The reaction continues to be this.
“Okay, let’s see how I can avoid it until the end….”
“No.”
Stop.
Just as I was about to change my posture, I froze for a moment at the words Cheonma spoke.
No?
“What are you saying that’s not right all of a sudden?”
“I am not ‘you.’”
What kind of bullshit is that?
I frown and frown.
“My name is… not something like ‘you’…”
Then, Cheonma, who was about to speak, suddenly closed her mouth.
A feeling of discomfort seeps into his expressionless face.
‘name?’
It is the name of the Heavenly Demon.
I think Goo Hee-bi called her lover or something earlier. I think that’s what you’re saying.
No, was there even a name in the first place?
She called herself Cheonma. I never said anything other than that.
“What is your name?”
“…”
He asked for words, but the Heavenly Demon still remained silent.
If I had said no, I would have had a name to spit out.
at that time.
“I don’t know. “I don’t remember.”
The Heavenly Demon bit her lip as if she was frustrated and said that.
“…what was my name?”
Instead, he looked at me and asked.
