Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 332
< Episode 332 > The apostle. (2)
My apostle.
I had to frown at what the World Tree said to me.
Apostle?’
What do you mean? a sado
Is what you are saying to me right?
“What do you mean?”
[It’s so nice to meet you.]
A ray of hope is contained in the empty and empty voice.
The world tree was talking to me as if it were having fun.
‘Why everyone.’
Even listening to it, I don’t think my impressions will straighten out.
Everyone did.
The people who met me all put feelings of joy in their voices.
Interesting or.
Nara reacts as if she is glad to see the change due to her existence.
‘Damn it.’
None of those things were pleasant to me.
The fact that beings I don’t know welcome me.
After all, it was the sound that I had something.
I erase that mind
I asked the world tree.
“Do you know who I am?”
Judging from his reaction, I wondered if he knew that I had returned.
The world tree that heard my words is silent.
Pudeudeuk-
Branches move slowly, revealing a reaction.
[An apostle.]
“Why do you keep calling me an apostle? what is that.”
[I don’t know you. You know me.]
I question the guy’s words.
Although the three coefficients do not know me.
I know the world tree.
The latter is understandable.
I’m not sure what the former means.
Even knowing that I know the world tree.
….
….
!..
.
You say you don’t know me?
“What do you mean?”
[I must have gone back in time. Apostle.]
“.. !”
I swallowed in vain at the words of the World Tree.
How did you find out?
‘Was it a lie to say I couldn’t remember?’
It’s a word that is said so casually.
Eyes shake.
I wondered if he might remember. Does this tree really have memories?
[I wonder how I know.] “”
[Don’t be so surprised, I don’t know how you lived in the past.]
“Then how do you know?”
Pudeuk.
A tree root poking out from the ground pointed at me.
To be precise, it was pointing towards my chest.
[Because you can feel the traces I gave you.]
It’s only after hearing what the World Tree says.
I vaguely knew how the tree had noticed me.
‘Is it a trace of a previous life?’
Sweep your chest lightly and remember.
All the traces that tree planted in me.
[I don’t remember giving it to you. That is definitely the stigma I gave you.]
The memory comes to mind.
At the time, it was accepted to live somehow.
and.
-You’re wearing miscellaneous things.
The Heavenly Demon, whom I met later, looked at me and mentioned .
Also, I thought the Heavenly Demon had erased it.
did you not erase it?
[As if trying to erase everything that was overlaid on the soul, it cannot be erased.]
“…Are you even reading the inside?”
[No way. How could I, who is only a huge old tree, do such a thing?]
For something like that, I felt like I was reading my heart one after another.
It’s a pretty nasty feeling.
overlaid on the soul
That sounds like shit.
Even if you go back in time.
Because the soul said it couldn’t be helped.
“I came because I wanted to ask you something.”
After that, I had to ask.
There were so many things I wanted to ask.
There are also so many things you need to know.
The reason why I had to come to this world somehow is also in the end.
It’s because there were as many things as a mountain to meet this tree.
Can this old tree tell me a story about him?
[It’s a question, so why did you find me so curious?]
A voice rings out.
Even though it was like that when we first met.
It was a resonance I was not used to.
I put up with it and asked the guy for a word.
“Is it you who brought me back?”
Going back in time to the past is like a miracle.
I know that such a miracle will not come easily to me.
Aside from what Yeon Il-cheon said that there is definitely a reason for the regression I went through.
If someone intervened in this.
The first thing I could think of was this tree.
“Did you… save me and send me back to the past?”
Turning the time is. Common sense is close to impossible.
If someone else used that power on me.
It had to be something out of the ordinary.
When you think about it.
The tree in front of me was by no means an ordinary being.
It was the first thing to be suspicious of.
one.
[Apostle. I didn’t do that.]
The World Tree commented that he didn’t do it himself.
[To go against time is to accumulate unimaginable karma in the soul.
It is beyond my power as a single old tree.]
“A single old tree cannot speak. I can’t grow it to be as big as you.”
[Whatever it is, the miracle you experienced is not my work, it is a minion of Ran.] I was
about to spit out the question of how to believe in that.
I knew it would be a meaningless argument, so I kept my mouth shut.
“It’s not you… who brought me back.”
[Unfortunately. I don’t have that kind of power left. It’s an impossible story.]
It’s impossible because I don’t have any left.
Could it be that it was originally possible?
[Sado.]
The wind blew in an instant.
[I don’t know what happened to you.]
A voice full of sorrow is deafening. A voice that seemed to be sad looking at me.
I didn’t like it at all.
“Why do you keep looking at me and calling me an apostle? What is an alternate apostle?”
[Since you received my stigma, it must mean that you are the past and the future me chose you. Then you are my apostle.] “How do you know that meeting you is the future?
”
[Didn’t you come now to meet me a little earlier?]
“”
[I’m happy. After enduring such a long time, I finally met someone who would give me a stigma.]
It’s been a long time.
That’s what I was talking about back then too.
“You…what the hell are you?”
[Didn’t I tell you?]
I haven’t heard much. How to return to the original world and
how this world is different from the outside.
That’s all I’ve heard
‘They rotted and disappeared on their own after a while, so what more could I have heard?’
After the world tree told me a few words, the body of Akajang Seon-yeon .
It turned into powder and disappeared.
The sight of that gigantic old tree slowly blowing away in the wind and disappearing.
It will not be forgotten for the rest of my life.
[I say no-self.]
“I already know that.”
[The fifth world tree that fell on the world.]
[The owner of this world.] “The owner…”
No matter how you look at it, the world is already ruined and rotten.
“Are you saying you are the god of this world?”
[There was a time when it was called that. Judging from asking that, I guess I didn’t say anything to you.]
“I wouldn’t have had time to do that. Because it just disappeared.”
[ Disappeared… Yes.]
The World Tree’s answer to my words is gloomy.
It was a voice that made listeners freeze inside.
[Looks like I don’t have much time left.]
“By standards, it shouldn’t be that short, right?”
several years here.
Recalling that it was a day in the outside world.
The reason I fell here in my previous life was around the time the contract was over.
Let’s look at that calculation.
There would be countless hours left for the World Tree.
but.
[The time a human being experiences is but a moment. So even if it’s long for you, it’s not that long for me.]
The three coefficients don’t seem to be a very welcome story.
[So it must be more fortunate. The apostle found me himself.]
“That bastard, the apostle. I’m going to die of noise. Why am I your apostle?”
I don’t even believe in God
The time to believe that is over.
“You did that to me.”
It is a flame that will burn up the karma accumulated in the world.
I don’t know this world
I knew that where I lived, there was a lot of intricacy.
“There are many things I don’t know.”
It’s embarrassing that there are more truths that we don’t know even after returning.
Sins are all just pretending not to know and trying to sleep with their feet stretched out.
I feel dirty because I feel like I’m somehow connected with those shitty truths.
Even if I’m not hooked up.
I felt uncomfortable with it because it seemed like people who shouldn’t be unhappy were involved.
“Then tell me where to start. What do you know?”
[…]
The world tree that heard me didn’t say anything.
What an uncomfortable silence.
It’s been a while. A
root
protrudes from the ground and bends behind me.
It was like sitting on top.
[Sit down.]
After hearing this, I carefully sat down on top.
[Apostle. Do you know about being a master?]
“Master?”
This is a story from the words of the head of the world.
It means that you are the master of this world.
[Yes, the owner. The owner is the essence of the world and itself.]
“Speak in an easy-to-understand manner.” [It has its own meaning. Because the world exists, there is an owner.
Because there is an owner, the world can exist.]
“What…”
It must mean that this will not collapse.]
I couldn’t understand what the World Tree was saying.
Leaving what it means.
Because I don’t know why I’m talking about this now.
“.. What are you talking about now?”
and about regression. Blood Demon and Heaven Demon.
and.
Along with the disaster that Yeonilcheon said.
It was in the realm of the hidden Guga deep in the front line.
Even the identity of the red orb called the seed.
I have a mountain of questions to ask.
I don’t know why I’m suddenly talking about something out of the blue.
[This is what it means to be the master of this world. Exactly, I don’t mean the master of the world.]
“Sure. Does it mean something else?”
[Exactly… he is the owner of life.]
“Life?”
[Yes, look at the owner of all life that stays on this land. It is called the owner of the world. It means that there is a world and life can live and breathe because there is an owner.] “
So, what does that have to do with the current story?”
[If the owner disappears from the world. What do you think will happen?]
At the words of the World Tree.
There was an illusion that something that had been blurry became clear for a moment.
[The disappearance of the owner is the same as the death of all life.]
“What…?”
I swallowed in vain at the words of the World Tree.
“What do you mean, that all life is gone?”
the world and the owner.
Leaving aside the predestined fate.
It’s an incomprehensible story.
Surely the world tree in front of my eyes had told me what it was like in my previous life, and then disappeared as soon as I left a few words.
Even so, the monsters in this world did not disappear.
If life should have disappeared as the world tree said, it would already be a contradictory story.
together.
‘.. In the first place, there is no owner or anything in this world…!’
Something comes to mind when thinking about it.
I looked at the three counts with rather surprised eyes.
As if responding to this, the World Tree spits out words.
[When the owner dies, the creatures on the land do not suddenly disappear. Normally, it would just prevent other life forms from being born. Living things are bound to gradually reach extinction.]
“Life will cease to be born?”
[It should be as it is.]
Owner.
master of the world.
A strange word.
If a living being needs the owner of the world in order to be born and survive.
“ .Our world has no owner. How is that possible?”
In the world I live in, I have never heard of the existence of an owner.
If the owner doesn’t exist.
In the first place, it means that life cannot be born.
The world was going well now.
Is there an owner I don’t know about?
when such doubts pass by.
[We see it and call it a rift.]
The World Tree tells me.
“crack?
[They deviated from the rules set by the world, so it would be more correct to call them cracks.]
In a world where the owner does not exist.
Living beings breathe and are born.
Does that mean that the world I live in now runs contrary to the logic of the world?
“Is that a problem?”
[If you say there is no master in the world, it is a situation that is beyond reason, so you should create a master to match.
]
[That’s why I call it the fifth world tree.]
Because it is the fifth owner to come down to this land.
It means that he speaks of himself as the fifth and third coefficient.
“.. Doesn’t that mean there is no problem as long as you wait for the owner to be born?”
The owner will show up anyway.
If you wait until then, maybe there won’t be much of a problem.
while I’m giving you that answer.
[Apostle. As I said, the life born on the ground belongs to the owner.]
As if the World Tree is correcting it, a different story is presented.
‘so.
[If there is a creature living in a land without an owner, and a new creature is to be born on that land. Do you know what must be done first?]
“What must be done to establish a new owner?”
The moment when I express my doubts and frown.
the world tree says
[That’s it.]
[First, erasing all life that breathes on the land. Only then can a new owner be planted.] It
was a really terrible story.
