Episode 237.
Lee Ye-jun was really funny.
To say it was laughable would be an understatement.
Should I say that it is mind-blowing?
Krrrrrr…!!
It was none other than a tiny puppy blocking his path.
I don’t know where it came from, but it was so pitiful to see it sticking its teeth into the ground.
That’s why I was so annoyed.
Isn’t a single bastard being scared of you?
“Is it because they are animals of loyalty?”
Lee Ye-jun burst into laughter.
Loyalty that knows no bounds or subject.
But excessive loyalty tends to fuel my anger.
Lee Ye-jun stretched his hand forward.
At the same time, Saaaa …
The power of Mother Nature was contained in Lee Ye-jun’s hands.
Although the words sounded ridiculous, it was truly an amazing power.
It could be said that it was a power that was not permitted to humans.
‘Han Chae-rin… .’
That’s why I couldn’t believe that this was the power that was taken from Han Chae-rin.
Duplicate (S).
It was Lee Ye-Jun’s individuality and the power that made him a S-class hunter.
It was the power that raised Lee Ye-jun to the pinnacle of humanity.
The power to literally copy everything about another person.
But the reality is that not everything could be replicated.
Anything outside the range of abilities of the clone (S) could not be cloned.
Also, something that far surpassed the ability could not be replicated even with a deteriorated version.
It was a power with clear limits.
It was a power whose limits were clear.
But now.
Kwaaaa …
The indescribable power of nature is in Lee Ye-jun’s hands.
A perfect replica.
The current Lee Ye-jun could replicate everything.
He could take everything in this world and make it his own.
It wasn’t just power that was gained.
An unidentified fox mask.
I still couldn’t figure out who he was.
However, the fox mask said that the identity and uniqueness of the being called Lee Ye-jun had to be sacrificed in exchange.
I couldn’t figure out what it meant.
It was also unclear what would happen if the identity and uniqueness of existence disappeared.
Because some fox masks didn’t say anything about it.
But Lee Ye-jun didn’t care.
It didn’t matter who the fox mask was.
If only I could kill Maeng Si-woo.
If only he could kill his sister and bring endless despair to Meng Shi-woo.
That kind of person.
Mere humanity.
“I’ll kill you!!”
It doesn’t matter if you throw it away.
Kwakwakwakwakwa─!!
The swirling energy of nature spread out in all directions.
This, combined with Lee Ye-jun’s crimson magic power, created a world of magic without a single gap.
The power that was taken from Han Chae-rin, or this power now, was surpassing Han Chae-rin.
Lee Ye-jun waved his outstretched hand.
Thousands of magical awls rose into the world of magical power that unfolded according to the gestures of Lee Ye-jun’s hands.
After a while, Lee Ye-jun waved his hand again, and, squeak!
Thousands of magical awls shot out, covering all directions.
Absolute death from which there is no escape.
but.
Kwaaaaang!!!
The world of magical power was torn apart by the ferocious teeth of the Black Stone.
It tears space and destroys the sharp point of the shooting line.
At the same time, crunch!
The space that contained Lee Ye-jun was distorted.
A force that engulfs and shakes the space itself.
Lee Ye-jun was unable to react to the phenomenon that had no warning signs.
“Kkaaaaaaah!”
A scream escaped me in excruciating pain.
In the shaking vision.
Lee Ye-jun could see the body that had disappeared from the shoulders to the sides.
I could see that a third of the body had been bitten off.
“… … !!!”
Lee Ye-jun’s eyes widened in shock.
Just now… . You’re saying that you not only resisted my power but also counterattacked?
No, when on earth did that happen─.
“Kwaa, aaaah!”
The indescribable pain made it difficult for me to think properly.
A fatal injury that should have resulted in death made normal thinking impossible.
But gurgle.
The torn flesh of the body suddenly boiled over.
Power stolen from a parasitic brother.
The power of super regeneration was instantly restored to Lee Ye-jun’s body, which had been ripped away.
Only then did I slowly come to my senses.
A view that I looked at with my eyes raised in a hurry.
Before I knew it, a small black puppy, Heukdol, was running towards me.
Krrrrrr!
A black light filled my vision along with a howling sound.
“A single bastard!”
Lee Ye-jun shouted loudly and unleashed his magical power.
A red, blood-red fog rises.
It completely dominated the space in front and restrained the black stone.
but.
Kwaaaaang!
The bloody fog that bloomed as force clashed with force dissipated.
Lee Ye-jun’s body shook violently from the impact.
“Ewww!!!”
Lee Ye-jun moved, letting out a mad scream.
The abyssal world that unfolds through this.
In it, one can glimpse the hunger that yearns for the death of existence.
It swallows the black stone that showed a gap.
That moment.
Crunch─!
Hunger tore at me.
What was hanging above it was the foreleg of the black stone.
That one simple action tore apart the abyss that Lee Ye-jun had created.
Kwaaaaaaaah!
As he pressed down on the ground, the black stone burst out with dark magic power.
Boom! Boom!
My mind was shaken by the great shock and I gasped!
Bright red blood spurted out all over Lee Ye-jun’s body.
In a field of vision that is dyed red.
Lee Ye-jun could see it.
The moment when the eyes of a simple beast change into those of a vicious beast.
…beast of prey?
No, it’s not something that can be explained in that way.
Predator.
Those were the eyes of an absolute predator that devoured everything in this world.
‘What the heck is this… .’
dump.
Lee Ye-jun’s body fell to the floor in vain.
The level of existence is different.
The concentration of force is different.
This is… this is… .
Gulp, gurgle.
Lee Ye-jun’s torn body appeared to be regenerating again and again.
Ugh!
Lee Ye-jun bit his teeth hard.
No matter how strong the power is, it is useless if it is taken away.
That is why the stronger the force, the better.
If you replicate it, then that power becomes your own.
Kiiiiiing─!!
Magic power released from control explodes.
The explosive magical power began to absorb everything it touched.
So when the power reached the black stone.
“… … !!!”
Lee Ye-jun had no choice but to express his shock.
Swallowed… was being swallowed.
The strength gained by giving up being human.
Everything that defines the existence of Lee Ye-jun.
Lee Ye-jun’s world is swallowed up and disappears.
The end.
Lee Ye-jun could not dare to do anything about the end that had been revealed to his world.
* * *
SH Hospital runs at super speed (SS+).
As expected, the hospital was in complete chaos.
First of all, there was chaos right at the hospital entrance.
Of course, all kinds of reporters came rushing in after hearing the news.
There were so-called tow truck YouTubers bustling about, delivering all sorts of news.
And the people in black uniforms who stop them.
“Get out! This is a hospital with patients!”
“We will announce the results of the investigation into the incident once it is complete!”
The guards of the inspection country were controlling the scene.
But maybe it’s because there are so many people.
“If you keep doing this, I will have no choice but to use force!”
The guards were having a hard time controlling the scene.
Siwoo walked, taking in the chaotic scene at a glance.
The hospital scenery seen from so close up is….
‘It looks like the situation is pretty serious.’
It was shattered as if a bomb had exploded.
Especially the top floor ward.
The special ward where Seo-ah was was in a state of chaos.
It was a hospital that was intact even during the disaster in Seoul.
‘no way….’
Siwoo headed to the hospital entrance, feeling a sense of unease.
Then, the guard from the inspection department blocked Siwoo’s path.
“Hey! I told you to back off, okay…?”
But tilt your head.
After checking Siwoo’s face here and there.
“Every day, every day, Hunter Maeng Si-woo?!”
The guard shouted in surprise.
“What?! There’s a hunter named Maeng Si-woo?”
“Where? Where where?!”
The rather loud voice immediately attracted the attention of those around him.
Soon, people also checked Siwoo’s face.
“It’s real! It’s the real Maeng Si-woo Hunter!”
“Wow! YouTube views are skyrocketing!”
“Hunter Maeng Si-woo! Please say just one thing!”
Urrrur, they started to rush towards Siwoo.
While I was panicking, I couldn’t even use Super Speed (SS+) because I was surrounded by Siwoo.
However, if we were to use force (SSR), people could get seriously hurt.
At that moment, I was wondering what to do about this.
“Get out of the way! Get out of the way!”
“I don’t know if I’ll get hurt!”
A series of crowds separated the gathered people.
As he pushed with brute force, a long road opened up in front of Siwoo, just like Moses parting the Red Sea.
And then there was this one woman.
Hair tied back in a ponytail.
A beauty with an impressive cynical vibe.
“Oh, Minjeong.”
Lee Min-jeong, who is the head of the inspection team and also serves as team leader, approached Si-woo.
The guides who paved the way were, of course, Lee Min-jung’s team members.
“Please come inside.”
Siwoo was able to enter the hospital without any problems, following Lee Min-jung’s instructions.
Of course, there were some intense struggles here and there.
“Hey! You’ll get hurt like that!”
“You don’t want to know why we’re called human slaughterers, do you?”
But when Lee Min-jung’s team members started to spread their message, everything became as quiet as a mouse.
After a while, Lee Min-jung walked across Si-woo and said.
“The details are currently under investigation, but the suspect has been identified as Lee Ye-jun, a S-class hunter.”
As expected, it was Lee Ye-jun.
Also, it seemed like the investigation was over since it was confirmed that he was a suspect and not a suspect.
“What happened to Lee Ye-jun?”
“that is….”
Lee Min-jung did not give an easy answer.
But for a moment I want to know why.
“I think it would be faster if you see it for yourself.”
Lee Min-jung said so and guided us to the scene of the incident.
Siwoo followed Lee Minjung without saying a word.
And um.
Siwoo could immediately understand why Lee Minjung had said that seeing it in person was faster.
What should I say?
There was no particular difference.
A loathsome abomination contained in a subspace pocket.
This is how Lee Ye-jun looks now.
I couldn’t feel any significant difference between the two.
There were two main reasons for this.
The first is that Lee Ye-jun also gave up his existence.
And the second one is….
Wow!
The voice of Heukdol is heard from somewhere.
When he turned his gaze, Heukdoli was running towards Siwoo, wagging his tail and panting.
Siwoo lightly hugged Heukdol.
“Blackie, did you do this?”
Wow!
Black Rock nodded his head wildly.
And then, panting.
Heukdol came to Siwoo as if asking for praise.
But um.
‘Should I say I did a good job with this?’
That’s understandable, just look at the sight of the ward itself being destroyed.
Fortunately, there were no injured patients, so it wasn’t really a problem.
Just one thing.
‘I forgot to ask Lee Ye-jun anything.’
Siwoo shook his head from side to side.
Could it be because of Siwoo’s appearance?
Squeak… .
The black stone in my arms looked sullen and cowering.
It seemed like Siwoo was secretly looking at her and saying, ‘What did I do wrong?’
It was a perfect puppy.
Looking at this, who on earth would you think created such a sight?
Siwoo smiled slightly and patted Heukdol’s head.
“No, Black Rock, you did a great job. Thank you Black Rock.”
Then Black Rock barked!
He showed a bright expression again.
When Siwoo put it down quietly, he ran around here and there, expressing his joy.
At that time, I was quietly watching the violent movements of the black stone.
A shape of thread was visible around the nape of the Black Stone’s neck.
Gleipnir, the chain that holds Black Stone in place.
Thanks to the breaks I gave him every now and then, he was very relaxed now.
However, it was not completely cut off and was still entangling Black Stone’s movements.
‘hmm….’
Gleipnir, which even a monster with over 100% proficiency (SS) could not cut off.
“Heukdol, come here for a moment.”
Heukdoli tilted his head and approached Siwoo.
Siwoo grabbed the languid string.
Then, Heukdoli looked startled.
His eyes trembled greatly and he showed a look of fear.
Gleipnir is a chain that oppresses the Black Stone.
It has been used to torture black people since ancient times.
I wonder if he’s trying to hurt me.
Black Stone’s eyes were filled with fear.
Of course, I knew that Siwoo wouldn’t be like that.
But trauma was separate from reason.
Gleipnir was still mentally tormenting Blackrock.
Siwoo patted Heukdol’s head once as if to reassure him.
And he grabbed Gleipnir with both hands.
“Ugh!”
I squeezed out all my strength.
Crunch, crunch!
The muscle fibers explode and crackle!
A significant sound was heard from Gleipnir.
And it didn’t end there.
Crackle! Crackle!
A power that evolved based on Hercules’ super strength (SS).
Force [Strength] (SSR).
Bam.
Gleipnir broke and fell.
The broken Gleipnir in his hand fluttered and rustled.
But its properties have not changed.
Although the form was broken, the properties contained within it were still there.
‘I think it would be good to make equipment with this.’
At that moment, that thought suddenly occurred to me.
… … !!
Black Rock’s bright eyes widened.
The expression on his face was so embarrassed that he couldn’t control himself.
An endless sense of liberation felt throughout your body.
Heukdol was at a loss as to what to do with the feeling he was experiencing for the first time.
Soon, the expression on her face as she looked at Si-woo looked like she would burst into tears if she was touched.
just as expected.
Wow!
Black Rock came and hugged Siwoo as if he was covering him.
And the full power of the black stone from which Gleipnir was cut off.
“Hey, wait a minute! Heukdol!”
Even Siwoo couldn’t handle that easily.
Even with the power of SSR, he couldn’t stop the black stone that was coming at him.
Is it not for nothing that Black Stone is called the Wolf of the Apocalypse?
Bang.
Siwoo fell backwards, unable to withstand the strength of Heukdol.
Heukdol was in Siwoo’s arms, rubbing his face against his.
Soon, the area of my chest where the black stone had dug in became moist.
Squeak─.
The voice of Heukdol, who seemed to be sobbing, was heard.
Fenrir in Norse mythology.
Fenrir was always alone.
Abandoned in a desolate land from birth.
You are a vicious monster.
You shouldn’t be alive in this world.
Fenrir, the black stone, had heard such words all his life.
I have been forced to become a monster without reason.
No family, no friends, no one.
The black stone was not there to give advice.
I had to endure loneliness alone and in silence.
A series of days where everyone tortured, harassed, and teased me.
Ugh… Ugh─.
Even though he cut off Gleipnir, Black Stone did not regain his former strength.
The fundamental reason why Heukdol was weakened was because of the absence of divinity.
There was no way to swallow up the world unless he regained divinity.
‘Still, I think I can easily swallow Korea.’
Siwoo just patted the black stone in his arms and thought.
* * *
After barely calming down the crying Black Stone.
Only then was Siwoo able to check Seoah’s condition.
“He sleeps well even in this chaos.”
I was sleeping soundly without even knowing that someone was carrying me.
The quiet special ward seemed like it was the only one in the world that was separate from it.
All of this is thanks to Heukdol’s protection.
Siwoo carefully closed the hospital room door.
And is it to check on Seo-ah’s safety?
It was only then that Siwoo began to notice the situation around him.
first.
“Why are you here?”
“Ahaha… .”
Kim Yi-jun smiled awkwardly and trailed off.
Slowly, he avoided Siwoo’s gaze and evaded the answer.
Siwoo was about to say something when suddenly.
“Are you hurt?”
I asked in surprise at Kim Lee-Jun’s unusual appearance.
“Oh, just a little.”
Kim Yi-jun waved his hand as if it was nothing.
But anyone who looked at it could tell that something was wrong.
It looks like an arm or a leg was cut off.
It could never be seen that he was even slightly injured.
“I am also me, brother.”
However, it was true that Kim Yi-jun was slightly injured.
“Sister Han Chae-rin was badly injured.”
“What? Chaerin?”
Siwoo opened his eyes in surprise.
And only then did I realize that Han Chae-rin was at the scene.
Now that I think about it, Han Chae-rin was hospitalized in SH Hospital due to mental illness or something.
Given her personality, Han Chae-rin would not have stayed still in this chaos.
Anyway, even if Kim Yi-jun gets hurt, he will recover on his own… .
Siwoo approached Han Chae-rin urgently.
“Chaerin, are you okay?”
Han Chae-rin didn’t have any particular answer.
I just stared blankly at Siwoo.
Are you really hurt that bad…?
The moment when I felt like that.
Whoosh.
Han Chae-rin turned her back on Si-woo.
For a moment, the beautiful ebony hair fluttered and blocked Siwoo’s vision.
Han Chae-rin avoided Si-woo and disappeared somewhere.
“… … .”
Siwoo was at a loss for words at the sight of Han Chae-rin like that.
What was in the eyes of none other than Han Chae-rin who was turning around?
‘…Why is he crying?’
