#67. The cycle of reincarnation
widely.
Grumble.
Addressul was lost in thought in front of the coffee machine.
‘… I never thought that guy would show up at the entrance.’
I didn’t expect it at all.
Demon world.
A place where demons with powers comparable to those of the gods and monsters, strange creatures comparable to high-level monsters, coexist.
Although this place called the Demon Egg is inherently dangerous, in my 1,869 past lives, I have never encountered that guy from the entrance.
‘Originally, he’s someone I only encounter after becoming a high-ranking god… .’
Isn’t that why, when a part-time job in the Demon World came to Damdeok’s mind, he willingly recommended it?
The power I received in each life was different, but the demonic power I received as a reward this time would be very useful in my future journey.
‘With that one thing, we can easily subjugate the third guardian.’
The third guardian is unconditional strength.
He is a guy who only accepts submission by force.
For a guy like that, there was no power as good as the power of the demons.
‘But it went to waste.’
I won’t be able to go to the Demon World for a while.
‘What should I do next?’
The smooth schedule went awry.
Ju Soo-yul closed his eyes while drinking hot coffee.
The warm scent of coffee rises.
Accordingly, hundreds and thousands of memories bloomed.
A beautifully prosperous human civilization.
The world of the gods was extremely peaceful.
Ju Ju-yul vividly remembered the moment when everything collapsed.
Jump up!
Suddenly, the break room door opened roughly.
A familiar man comes in.
“Hey, you address… .”
It was Damdeok.
The two exchanged glances in silence for a moment.
‘The atmosphere is different from usual. ‘Have you regained some of your memories?’
Ju Soo-yul was able to guess why Damdeok came.
‘I guess my original memory was affected by my encounter with this guy in the demon world.’
An unknown thing encountered in the demon world.
Its name is,
Asmodeus.
One of the 72 devils, a devil with the faces of a bull, a human, and a goat mixed together.
He led the demon ‘Daeva’ army and was widely known as the “Head of the Evil Spirits,” but he was also called by another name.
‘King of swords.’
Damdeok, called the Sword God, was a thorn in his eyes as he controlled all the swords in the demon world.
‘Actually, a lot of people died because of that guy.’
From the time Damdeok passed his 1,000th life, he overpowered Asmodeus’ sword, but until then, he was the one killed by it almost every time.
‘I met the rival of rivals, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable for my memory to be confused.’
‘I don’t know what I saw in my subconscious.’
widely.
As soon as he put down his coffee cup, Damdeok opened his mouth.
“I saw you in my dream.”
It’s not a dream, it’s unconsciousness.
The address didn’t say anything.
“I think I’ve seen it not just once, but dozens or even hundreds of times. “And all from a different era.”
Address rate was still silent.
“You and me… “Are you sure that was the first time we met?”
I can’t answer.
I haven’t been able to kill ‘it’ yet.
I couldn’t become stronger than ‘that’.
Asmodeus, I’m not talking about that guy.
That guy is just a sword-crazed devil.
There was a separate real risk.
‘Eyes of the abyss… .’
Not until you get rid of it… I couldn’t tell Damdeok the truth about this world first.
“Hey, address rate. “Please say something.”
“I can’t tell you.”
“Why can’t I talk?”
“Everything is for you.”
A message appeared before Damdeok’s frowning eyes.
[The object’s intention is clearly good.]
‘This message again.’
Damdeok’s eyebrows twitched.
Now I understand the essence of this message.
“Good intentions… “It doesn’t mean you’re telling the truth.”
It is certainly.
The address rate is hiding something.
And it will be packaged as a ‘good lie’.
Whatever the intention, it is good.
“… Well, okay. “If you come out like that, I don’t plan on going out of my way to tell you.”
Ju Soo-yul looked at Damdeok with an expression of surprise.
“why? “Then you thought you would hang on until I told you?”
“That’s not it… “But I didn’t know you’d give up so easily.”
Damdeok shrugged his shoulders and flopped down on the sofa.
I guess it’s good.
I’m curious about the scenes I saw in my dream, and I’m also concerned about Joo Joo-yul hiding something… .
Nevertheless, Damdeok can remain calm.
‘The address rate is definitely on my side.’
Whether it’s in a dream. Reality or not. Lifted forward.
Joo Joo-yul, that guy was always on my side, and I was confident that he would move for me and continue to do so in the future.
It was something I felt instinctively even without using my intuition power.
‘okay. That’s enough for now.’
Isn’t it true that each person has their own reasons for not being able to talk about it?
What’s important now is that we’ve only gathered two out of the twelve guardians.
“So what are your plans for the future? “I told you that if you want to get to the third guardian, it would be best to get a part-time job in the Demon World.”
Ju Soo-yul couldn’t help but be impressed by Damdeok’s question, which quickly regained his senses.
‘As life goes on, I become quicker at judging situations.’
In my previous life, I was a guy who was on guard and asked for a few days to think about it.
“… what’s the matter? By any chance, the only foresight you have seen is the Demon World? “Is there no other way?”
Ju Soo-yul smiled.
“no. I can’t go to the Demon World. “Asmodeus has seen us, so he’ll be hanging out at the entrance for a while.”
“Asmodeus? “Is that scary guy’s name Asmodeus?”
Ju Ju-yul began to explain what he knew about the Demon World.
Damdeok’s expression, who was nodding his head as he listened, changed into an expression of chewing shit.
“As expected, you have been to the demon world before. “He said it like it was his first time.”
Damdeok glared at Ju Soo-yul with a look in his eyes as if he were looking at a traitor.
Jooyul just shrugged his shoulders.
“Tsk, that’s enough. I won’t rely solely on your precognitive abilities anymore. “Because I have my own thoughts.”
“What?”
“You’re not going to tell me? Hehehe, it’s revenge.”
Ju Soo-yul looked anxiously at Damdeok, who was smirking.
What is this again… .
* * *
“Hraab!”
Damdeok swung his club with all his might.
Quang!
With a sound, four hunters went out at the same time.
The studio was instantly filled with shock.
“and… “What just happened?”
“How can four 5-star hunters at once… .”
There were whispers from the audience as well as the production crew.
In an instant, the 5-star hunters scattered around were standing up with embarrassed faces.
Damdeok grinned and swung his club 360 degrees.
“this… child!”
Cheonjungak, one of the four 5-star hunters, glares at Damdeok with a bright red face.
The atmosphere felt like they were going to fight again at any moment.
“yes… Ah, yes! “I enjoyed the demonstration!”
On the surface, it’s a public service broadcast for beginner hunters, but in reality, well… .
Just by looking at Iris’s successor, Cheon Jung-ak, appearing regularly on the program, you can tell at a glance that things are going wrong.
‘It’s not good, but from now on, I’ll have to adjust the pros and cons for my own benefit.’
Damdeok continued speaking firmly and clearly.
“I don’t think a hunter’s qualities lie in teamwork.”
“yes? haha… Well, I see. Then, let’s hear another hunter’s opinion… .”
Kim Seo-woo tried his best to use the microphone, but it didn’t work on Damdeok.
“The quality of a hunter is pure strength. He comes from himself. Didn’t you see it just now? No matter how good your teamwork is, the reality is that you will lose to one overwhelmingly strong opponent.”
The PD quickly motioned for him to cut the comment, but Damdeok did not stop.
“If you are a hunter who has to protect the lives of citizens, wouldn’t it be right to focus on becoming stronger first? “Teamwork comes next.”
A statement that some might call arrogant.
But at least citizens living in modern society did not think that way.
“That’s right… .”
“Monsters should be completely ignorant.”
“It’s true that the hunter itself should be stronger rather than teamwork.”
Before we knew it, the audience was nodding their heads in agreement.
It was a time when anxiety about monsters increased rapidly.
Damdeok added with a grin.
“So, saying that a company’s teamwork training is good or something is completely useless.”
Producer and Kim Seo-woo’s faces turned pale.
Damdeok looked straight at camera number 1 and drove in the wedge.
“Don’t rely on companies and guilds! “Only a hunter who can be strong alone will protect the citizens and the country.”
Clap clap clap!
Applause erupted from the audience.
Kim Seo-woo resigned.
He continued mechanically and soullessly, and the PD kept his head down and pressed his temples.
The managing director of Company M urgently calls somewhere and leaves the studio with a heated face.
Afterwards, the broadcast was completely at Damdeok’s pace.
‘What on earth is that idiot thinking?’
From the corner, Ju Soo-yul looked at Damdeok with an interesting face.
* * *
“So what are your requirements?”
“Haha, you speak Korean well.”
William Jones, CEO of Midas Company, looked at the smiling young man in front of him.
The man’s name is Yu Dam-deok.
Although he is a 6-star hunter from Korea, he is the only one who can freely enter and exit the
He was a hot figure who was being watched very closely even in his home country, the United States.
‘Why on earth is this person interfering with our work?’
From what I heard, he didn’t give in at all to all the cajoling and pressure that was put on him as soon as the broadcast ended.
‘He is a person to whom the threats of the Iris Guild, which is holding Korea tightly, do not work… .’
William smiled.
‘There are some in America too. These crazy hunters just go out without any regard for the government or the opinions of those around them… .’
He was confident.
Aren’t hunters originally gigantic, child-like beings?
Always thirsty for attention and recognition, not knowing when he will die.
‘Let’s give them whatever they want and get it over with.’
Although the land mass is small, Korea has been the hunter powerhouse of Asia for several years, both in name and reality.
For Midas Company, which focuses on the hunter business, its presence in Korea was more important than anything else.
Make as little noise as possible… .
William began speaking.
“Whatever Hunter wants, we will support it generously.”
William said with a friendly smile.
“Instead, I would like you to cancel all of the comments Hunter made on air. “Officially.”
At those words, Damdeok smiled brightly and nodded.
“Are you just canceling it? “Don’t worry, we will re-market it neatly according to the script.”
“Haha, very good. “Tell me what you want.”
“Well, it’s not that big of a deal… “I’d like to have a weapon.”
The corners of William’s mouth slowly rose.
Midas Company was a large company ranked in the top 10 in the United States.
There are already more than 200 top-class weapon factories of 5 stars or higher.
We could give you any number of existing weapons on Earth, but just one?
It was funny.
‘It’s a simpler wish than I thought.’
William, who was in a good mood, took a sip of imported tea and said.
“What kind of weapon is it? “I’ll give you as much as you want, so tell me anything.”
Damdeok answered happily.
“It’s a sword that originated in England… “There is a name that has been handed down since ancient times.”
William asked, leisurely savoring his tea.
“That’s cool, what’s your name?”
“Excalibur.”
Pooh!!
Tea spewed out from William’s mouth.
