01043 Omnibus – Sovereign Of Sword. ————————————————– ———————-=
As the night in the city turned white, I began preparing to leave.
Last night’s dark night gradually disappears, and the contrast of colors that decorate the blue sky is dazzlingly clear.
As the darkness spread throughout the area gradually became brighter, a single shadow remained in place throughout the dawn, without making a single movement.
“after… … … … .”
Go Yeon-ju sighed as the ground shuddered and played with the beads in her hand.
It was a video I watched non-stop all night.
Nevertheless, she concentrated on the beads without the slightest sign of boredom.
Again, the video without sound is played.
“… … .”
Go Yeon-ju bit her lip hard enough to leave teeth marks.
No matter how you looked at it, there was no doubt.
no.
After reviewing it hundreds of times during the night, I came to a conclusion in my head.
I just couldn’t sleep because I was worried about what would happen next.
I carefully observe the scene through her wide eyes.
There were two situations to note.
The Kim sisters are seen arguing with two men they have never seen before, and Jegal Haesol is sitting at the table next to them and smiling leisurely.
First of all, it was a clear fact that the woman holding the teacup was Jegal Haesol.
The warp at the end of the video is a unique ability that only she can use.
Then why is Jegal Haesol sitting there?
That’s not all.
Kim Yu-yeon’s love for her younger brother is famous for being so extreme that no user from the North Continent would know about it.
But for some reason, she was showing behavior such as yelling at Kim Su-yeon or rolling her eyes.
Go Yeon-joo, who has been going through many difficult times, came up with a highly probable hypothesis.
Mercenary, Istantel Row, Hamill.
The news that the Confederacy, centered around these three clans, had won against the devil was clearly unexpected.
Jegal Hae-sol, who had been aiming for a fisherman’s fortune, also looked very embarrassed.
Now that the hostile opponent had taken over Atlanta, it was the remaining forces on the Northern Continent that were on fire.
In the end, Zhuge Haesol made one decision.
And he must have moved to the enemy camp himself through warp and made some kind of suggestion.
It is not difficult to guess that the proposal is an alliance agenda.
The conflict between the forces of the tyrant and the Holy Queen is so deep and long-standing that everyone in the world knows it.
Those two camps join hands overnight?
According to common sense, this makes no sense.
But what if you made an offer that would appeal to anyone who heard it?
Of course, the arrangements made so far are only speculation.
However, the important thing was that the North acted independently without informing the East.
As a result of ordering an investigation more secretly, I was able to receive a report that Jegal Hae-sol was away for a considerable amount of time yesterday.
The moment she thought about it, Go Yeon-ju felt that her decision had finally been made.
In a situation where even if we joined forces, we could become opponents or not, our trusted ally turned his back on us first.
I had no intention of becoming a sacrifice for the rosy future of the two powers.
“You abandoned righteousness first, so there is no need for us to protect it.”
After a cold monologue, Go Yeon-ju opened a drawer and pressed the call button.
There are currently two methods the East can take.
The first is to reveal the video and formally question it.
The second is to hide the video and stab them in the back.
Of course, what the Shadow Queen had in mind was the latter.
After a while, as soon as the sound of the door opening was heard, Go Yeon-ju spoke.
“Prepare for the meeting.”
“A meeting, you mean?”
“Issuing an emergency call in my name. Right Now.”
“… … All right.”
The shadow seemed to have sensed an unusual energy and quickly disappeared.
Go Yeon-ju finally got up from her seat.
As the war situation became extremely unfavorable, it was impossible to stand on equal footing with the opponent.
It was the same in the Holy Queen’s camp.
I don’t know, but Jegal Hae-sol must have presented enormous conditions.
In that case, the scene where Kim Yu-yeon and Kim Soo-yeon confront each other is understandable.
The internal strife in the video probably stemmed from the issue of whether to accept it or not.
It is unknown to what level the proposal was made.
Anyway, Jegal Haesol moved quickly and got on the scale first, but the original scale bowls were on both sides.
Also, it cannot be said that there is no conflict between the East and the South, but at least it is not as severe as the North.
In other words, there is still room for participation in many ways.
Not long after, news arrived that preparations for the meeting were complete.
Go Yeonju’s eyes lit up and she tightly held the bead in her hand.
If it was me, it was there.
I am confident that I can make an offer that goes beyond the North and that the other party can never refuse.
*
next day.
The Mercenary Clan members woke up in the morning and quietly gathered in the dining room.
Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Soo-yeon, Kim Yu-hyun and Kim Yu-yeon were unable to end their argument last night.
Instead of relieving their feelings, the longer the argument went on, the more intense criticism they made at each other, and the atmosphere became more and more hostile.
If three or four of his colleagues had not forcibly split the two sides in the middle, the bond between blood relatives might have been severed due to some exaggeration.
Still, after a night of sleep, the four of us seemed to have regained our senses, but even though we ran into each other at the restaurant, we didn’t raise our voices like we did yesterday.
When Kim Soo-yeon came to his senses, he just ate in silence, as if he was embarrassed that he had looked so bad.
For a while there was only clattering sound in the restaurant.
As the uncomfortable meal was almost over, it was Kim Yu-hyeon who made the first move.
He, who had been staring at Kim Soo-hyun while eating and drinking all meal, carefully stood up from his seat.
“Hmm, hmm.”
He cleared his throat awkwardly and sauntered over to the table where his younger brother was sitting.
Kim Soo-hyun had also finished eating and was just staring at the window with his arms crossed.
“Suhyeon.”
“… … uh?”
Even though there was no way he couldn’t hear, Kim Soo-hyun answered a beat late.
His wide-eyed face was so lost in thought that he didn’t notice it.
“that… … . yesterday… … . uh… … . I was so embarrassed… … .”
“what… .”
“It’s the situation you mentioned. I should have heard that too… … . “I was truly sorry.”
“Hmm… … .”
When Kim Yoo-hyun offered a sincere apology, Kim Soo-hyun avoided eye contact and just rolled his eyes.
From what I could see, my brother seemed to be feeling a little relieved, so he took out the secret weapon he had prepared.
“this… … .”
The one holding it out with both hands was none other than the baby Chaos Mimic.
“What is this?”
“I took some of the equipment you used. “I didn’t know what you would like, so I prepared a variety of things.”
“ah… … . thank you.”
“what. “Thank you.”
Kim Yu-hyun, who saw Kim Soo-hyun’s eyes shaking, smiled inwardly.
He continued speaking without missing a moment.
“And I’m embarrassed to seem like I’m reversing what I said… … . “Wouldn’t it be better to help this situation and go?”
“I heard everyone is waiting.”
Kim Soo-hyun responded bluntly.
“I explained the situation before coming. Also, sometimes Zero Code will stop by and tell you what you’re up to.”
“Hmm.”
“request. We talked about it yesterday, but I think it would be difficult for me alone. Suhyun really needs you. “If you help me, things will definitely get easier.”
“… … .”
Kim Yu-yeon and Kim Soo-yeon watched the brothers’ conversation with their mouths closed.
In fact, there was no user here who would object to the idea of someone like that helping them.
Kim Soo-hyun’s presence has already been proven in the previous two battles.
There was no answer for a while.
However, the next moment, Kim Yu-hyeon’s complexion brightened.
Kim Soo-hyun still had a gloomy expression, but he had accepted the baby Chaos Mimic.
“thanks. “Thank you very much.”
He smiled softly as he watched his younger brother slowly open the box and check the equipment.
“Come to think of it, hasn’t it been a long time since we fought?”
“Don’t suddenly act warm.”
Kim Soo-hyun fired back sharply, as if there were still regrets left.
Kim Yu-hyeon, who was trying to climb over a wall, looked embarrassed and scratched his temple.
“ruler! “How about we stop and have a constructive conversation?”
Jegal Haesol, who had been shedding tears while looking like he was dying of laughter, wiped his eyes and said.
As we clapped our hands, the clan members let out the breath they had been holding while paying attention.
I felt like I had overcome a very difficult hurdle.
“Do you have any good ideas?”
As the air slowly cleared, Ha-yeon Jeong asked with an expectant look on her face.
Not only her, but most people had similar expressions.
The battle of heads between the current world’s Zhuge Haesol and this world’s Zhuge Haesol was definitely an interesting match.
“It’s not a good idea, but there is an easy way… … .”
Jegal Haesol blurted his words and sent a coy glance to one side.
However, Kim Soo-hyun, who received attention, calmly shook his head.
Wouldn’t the devil know?
Even though it was a different world, he had no intention of pulling out a knife at his colleagues and his wife.
Kim Yu-hyeon, who took a step back and watched, was internally relieved.
I was wondering what would have happened if he had just killed me and told me to go back.
“Well, dialogue is better than force. “As long as it works out well.”
Of course, how to resolve the matter in the future was a separate issue.
“Then how can we contact the North Continent and create a space?”
The gaze that was staring at Kim Soo-hyun turned ninety degrees.
Kim Soo-yeon, who was about to say something, slightly lowered her head.
Jegal Haesol was not a fool either.
Even though the devil appeared, it was quite understandable to see that they were hostile to each other.
“and. Is it that serious? What is the current power structure? Quantify it, at least roughly.”
“We suffered losses due to the Iron Mountains expedition, but our Confederate army will still be 5.5 to 6.”
The answer came from Kim Han-byul.
“So, the Northeastern Federation is around 4 to 4.5?”
“yes. maybe.”
Jegal Haesol, who was muttering quickly, suddenly became silent.
I tilt my head back and look up at the ceiling.
And said:
“What is an alliance?”
Everyone just blinked at the sudden question.
After a moment of silence, Jegal Haesol calmly continued speaking.
“Don’t say anything. Because it’s my personal opinion. In fact, I form alliances based on goodwill, friendship, promise, and trust. “I’m a person who thinks things like this are unnecessary.”
“what… … . “Is that what you mean?”
“Let’s resolve the grievances through dialogue and form an alliance. But is there really a need to resolve the conflict?”
“yes?”
“Let’s think briefly. “What is the clearest picture for the two forces to form an alliance and further unite for a long time?”
“That’s it for each other…” … .”
Jeong Ha-yeon, who was about to say, “I guess it’s faith,” kept her mouth shut.
The corners of Jegal Haesol’s mouth went up.
“It’s simple. “One force just needs to be significantly stronger than the other forces.”
It was fresh yet unfamiliar logic.
But no one could rashly object.
Assuming that the power structure is divided into nine versus one, would the weaker side dare to think of betraying?
In other words, it was an alliance that could be established and maintained under the premise that the strong would not betray.
“no way.”
A few quick-witted people seemed to have realized Jegal Hae-sol’s intentions by now.
“Let’s divide the East and the North?”
“That’s it. From the looks of it, the northern part seems to have completely disappeared. “If we could just hold the East, the balance of power would completely collapse, right?”
“Yes.”
“If the situation gets to that point… … . Who did you say? Holy Hugu?”
“yes. that’s right.”
“Anyway, if that happens, you won’t want to fight anymore unless you get shot in the head, right? If I were in that camp. I will respond to the alliance by crying and eating mustard. Yes, I definitely think so… … .”
Jegal Haesol, who had said that much, suddenly sighed.
Although it was said in a condescending manner, the key was how to separate the two forces.
“ah-. It’s difficult~. “Maybe you should have brought Ansol with you?”
“yes? Me?”
Ansol, who had been listening intently, was surprised and asked a question.
Oops, Jegal Haesol looked at her with golden eyes, but shook his head with a clear look of disappointment on his face.
“Eh, it’s a bit vague… … . “You probably won’t be able to become a deus ex machina.”
“Deu, what is that?”
“There is such a thing. “A deceptive luck that overcomes a crisis with just one prayer.”
“I don’t know what it is, but I want to help too.”
“It’s amazing, but you can’t do it.”
“why!”
Ansol, perhaps sensing the implicitly dismissive tone of voice, became angry.
“But you still haven’t been able to activate it as you hoped?”
“As you wish?”
“look. “You don’t know.”
“I can do it too!”
Then Jegal Haesol chuckled.
“okay? Give it a try.”
“What should I do?”
“Please let the East and the North separate~. “You just have to pray.”
“profit!”
Ansol got angry at the tone of asking, “Can you do something like this?”
After a while.
Jegal Haesol chuckled as he saw Ansol really praying with his hands clasped together, while those who watched smiled bitterly, saying it was in bad taste.
I was a bit surprised to hear that it was possible with Ansol in another world, but it was something that couldn’t be accomplished in the current world anyway.
It was then.
bang!
Suddenly, someone kicked down the restaurant door and rushed in.
It was a messenger.
“Here’s a report!”
I was in such a hurry that I shouted without even being able to catch my breath.
“What?”
Kim Su-yeon just turned her head and asked.
“The Shadow Queen has sent a message from the East!”
“Shadow Queen?”
Kim Soo-yeon jumped up from her seat.
Shadow Queen Go Yeonju was the most powerful user in the East.
Did she send a message like that?
“What did you say?”
“If you just tell me the coordinates, I will activate warp gates in all the cities under my control right now!”
“what… … . What are you talking about!?”
“And as of this time, the East has announced its unconditional surrender to the Confederacy… … !”
That moment.
“?”
A question mark appeared on the top of Jegal Haesol’s head.
*
“I don’t understand.”
It was a space filled with only darkness.
In the center of the room, a dark figure could be seen sitting alone on a throne.
Its identifiable features include two horns on its head and red-hot pupils that are vertically slit.
It was like that.
The identity of darkness was none other than Satan, the king of all devils.
“Retreat right now?”
Satan, with his hands clasped, looked up and asked again.
“Belial. The great world’s prophecy said so? really?”
He speaks as if there is someone else in the room.
“Yes, that’s right.”
After a while of silence, a panicked voice rang out from the pitch black ceiling.
“I also checked several times. “But this is an order to withdraw immediately, no questions asked.”
“Then what is the zero code?”
“They say they will take their hands off me. Even a week later, the Great Realm will directly open a return portal, so you can clean up inside it and come back… … .”
“Tsk.”
As soon as the sound of clicking one’s tongue was heard, the voice suddenly cut off.
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand. “Why are we withdrawing when the situation is so favorable?”
“I feel the same way. Now, just one year, no, six more months to get the zero code… … .”
“Did anything go wrong with the Atlanta attack?”
“Let’s take a new look. However, until three or four days ago, I received word that the attack was going smoothly.”
“therefore.”
“What do you want to do? “It seemed like they would force a summons if they didn’t comply.”
Satan sighed.
The great world’s prophecy has absolute authority in that it has never been wrong.
He even revealed a rare and strong will to open a precious portal.
However, disobeying it was the same as ignoring the entire Great Precepts.
“… … For now, we will proceed with the strategy as is.”
“yes?”
“I’m not saying I’m going to ignore the prophecy, but it doesn’t make sense to give up when we’ve come this far. “It’s a matter of understanding before command.”
“Ha, do it!”
But Satan waved his hand.
“stop. “I will take care of the details, and you can report information about Atlanta.”
“Still, the great world’s prophecy is like this… … .”
“What is the answer?”
“All right.”
As he spoke, a dark figure appeared silently from the ceiling.
Then he bent down almost like he was crouching and spoke lowly.
“… “Everything goes according to Satan’s will.”
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
————————————————–
1. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
I say this to Satan, the king of all demons.
All Great Demons and Fourteen Demon Lords who have currently entered the Hole Plane will return to the Great Plane within two weeks, that is, by 5/31.
In addition, we will ban all activities during the preparation period for return.
————————————————–
2. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
We will not accept any extension of the return preparation period for any reason.
If you do not return to the portal that opens at midnight by 5/31, exactly two weeks later, I will summon you by force.
————————————————–
3. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
If you say “Complete your return by 5/31,” it means that you will open the portal at midnight on “5/30.”
Midnight on 5/30 is twelve o’clock at night on 5/30, which marks the turning point when the 31st begins.
This is common sense.
————————————————–
4. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
It has nothing to do with other demons or demons opening portals at any time and at any time.
No matter how many counterexamples you give, they are meaningless unless you discuss them quantitatively.
————————————————–
5. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
I don’t understand why I didn’t get the zero code sooner with such enthusiasm, but I understand that the command was vague.
Therefore, I will correct the order to return to the portal that opens at midnight on 5/30.
————————————————–
6. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
I still heard that it was until “midnight on 5/31” instead of “midnight on 5/30”, but these two things are completely different. Be sure to return to the portal that opens at midnight on the 30th.
————————————————–
6. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
Satan.
What does it mean to send a video of a cat corpse in this communication?
————————————————–
7. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
“I understand that you want to claim that “the moment I open the portal, the wave function converges and the internal state is determined, so I cannot know whether the portal has been opened or not until I open the portal.”
I just finished setting up the portal to automatically create at midnight on 5/30.
The return portal will automatically open at 12:00 PM on 5/30, so there will be no Schrödinger’s cat problem.
————————————————–
8. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
Just do it in moderation.
5/30 12:00 PM is of course not an hour “based on the grand plane,” but an hour “based on the whole plane.”
This is a matter before common sense.
It is absurd to suddenly bring up the standard time of the great world when we have been operating under the Hall Plain standard time since entering the country.
————————————————–
9. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
It’s hard to believe, but it has been revealed that the majority of demons and demons currently active in the Hole Plane operate according to the Great Realm’s standard time.
I think they should continue their nocturnal lifestyle to the extent possible, but we will wait until 12:00 PM on May 31st to return based on hole plane time.
————————————————–
10. Prophecy of the Great Realm → Satan
There will be no questions about the continuity of time.
This seems to be a misinterpretation of Bergson’s theory of time, but no matter what the subjective time is, 5/31 will never come after 6/1.
