Chapter 831
Obviously, I must have heard something like that.
Kwachang.
Sounds like a window breaking.
It was a signal that it was time to get out of the illusions surrounding me and return to reality, and it was an alarm that awakened my mind from deep sleep.
Hwaaak.
The scenery around me is like ice cream
melts quickly The shouts that had been clearly audible seemed far away like an echo.
– Turn around!
The final battle of this great war, perhaps the final battle for the fate of mankind.
Team leader Choi stepped forward with the heroic sword held high, and countless hunters following him were advancing like waves.
Towards a place where even the moonlight does not reach.
Towards a single existence standing tall there, clad in thick darkness like a cloak.
‘no.’
Not yet. Not yet.
I reached out my hand with all my might. In the midst of my blurry vision, I moved my body, which was entirely mine, and took a step toward him.
Demon King Asmodeus.
I can see the back of a disaster that is neither huge nor hideous.
Even if all of this was an illusion that would not come true, I wanted to clearly see with my own two eyes the reality that no one had heard of.
The invisible figure buried in the thick darkness, the power crouched within
I wanted to feel it for a moment.
‘more. little bit more!’
I don’t know.
Could it be that my earnest cry resounding in my heart reached me? Or is this all I’ve seen and felt right now something else other than an illusion?
The only thing I could be sure of was that a being responded to my silent cry.
Seruk.
New slowly turning around. overflowing darkness.
My heart sinks. An ice-cold chill ran down her spine.
It’s nonsense. It’s impossible.
However, the Demon King was clearly turning towards me, and that soon became the last scene I saw.
Dig.
Everything around me disappeared. Choi and Xiao Shen. many hunters. And even the Demon King Asmodeus.
But the darkness did not disappear.
No, rather, an abyss-like aura was approaching, squeezing all around.
‘What the hell is this… …
It was confusing. I couldn’t even tell them apart.
Is the scene I am seeing now another illusion? Or am I, who had already reached my limits, losing consciousness and dreaming?
And that moment when I was captivated by a question.
belt ring.
– You are the chosen one. the owner of the ark.
– [System] automatically runs the firewall.
– [System] blocks newly detected viruses.
– [Abyssal Swamp] has been canceled.
– [Power of the Abyss] is dissipated.
– [Lv.10 “The Last Abyss” doppelgänger has been blocked.
belt ring. belt ring. belt ring.
The clear sound of a bell reached my ears. buy
echoed through the room.
At the same time, the darkness that was wriggling towards me like a living snake quickly dissipated.
As if facing something frightening, he shuddered wildly.
And I realized the identity of this abyss.
The existence that brought the countless illusions that suddenly came upon me.
‘Doppelganger.’
Suddenly, a phrase I read somewhere comes to mind.
When you look into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
What that short sentence meant was different, but what happened to me was the same.
I looked at my doppelganger, and the doppelganger looked at me. That’s how I was dragged into the abyss he created.
No, it was.
But now I know.
That this is another illusion in reality. That it was the power itself possessed by the doppelganger.
And what should I do.
Hwareuk.
The heat gushing from the two empty hands. Darkness struggles with dazzling bluish-white flames.
Like someone who had made up his mind to do so a long time ago, I reached out and grasped the darkness with my fiery hands.
Kwadeuk.
At the same time, the moment when I tore it with all my might.
Chow ah!
i saw
The darkness turned to ashes by the flames is powerlessly dissolving. The sight of the world I remember beyond that appears _p_
Hoo-wook.
Air mixed with dust flows in through the nose and mouth.
The crumbs of stone that had paused in the air fell down again, and the Skeleton King came into view, staring at me with his eyes wide open.
‘Everything was fleeting.’
In reality, less than a second had passed.
But I’m back after at least a few hours and years of delusion.
Perhaps none of those who have gone through the same thing as I have survived. All of them must have been absorbed by their doppelganger.
“What is this… …
It’s something that can’t be easily explained in words, and there’s no time to explain.
I shook my head instead of answering the confused Skeleton King.
Then, leaving him behind, I faced my doppelganger, who was looking up at me with a bewildered gaze.
-You, what the hell are you… … .
slip.
The body, shimmering like a shadow, continues to disperse little by little, at the same time.
What I tore earlier with my two fiery hands was not a mere illusion, but his body, life itself.
“Last desperate effort, I saw it well.”
“Yeah, I thought the bastard who was barking and barking hard from earlier cooperated so easily.”
Doppelgänger at a word you threw out
I shuddered.
Every time the darkness gushing out like blood was scattered like ashes, the shadow that could be said to be his body was shrinking.
“Honestly, the attempt was fine. If I was in the same physical condition as usual, I wouldn’t be able to do it in the first place… … I didn’t know that some Sibeol would come in without even turning on the blinker.”
– It can’t be like this, it can’t be like this.
“There are bastards like you, but what else can a bastard like me not have?”
The doppelganger shuddered like a moan.
– The Chosen One… ..
the chosen one. the owner of the ark.
I don’t know why my doppelganger and system call me this way.
I don’t know who chose me or what the ark is right now.
But if those two words that refer to me aren’t just nonsense, I know that it’s my mission to prevent the F*cking sight that my doppelganger showed me.
– Be prepared. All the sights you saw will soon become the future and reality.
“Are you sure? I am a genius, but I have no intention of dying prematurely.”
Upon hearing my answer, my doppelganger laughed out loud. Nom, his son who had already undergone complete annihilation, had a sense of desolation and madness that could not be hidden.
– If the king comes back, will you be able to say the same thing then?
I suddenly remembered the deep darkness I had seen in my imagination.
He remembered the last appearance of the demon king Asmodeus, who had to be let go without being able to confirm it, and the strength that was conveyed just by looking at it from a distance.
‘If I face him, will I really be able to win?’
It’s an empty question.
Because you already know the answer to that question.
Demon King Asmodeus is strong. No, discussing strength itself is meaningless.
If it was reality, not an illusion, if the power I felt was truly true, my limbs would have stiffened and froze just by looking at each other.
However, sometimes the answer to a problem is not one, but several.
I am the one who solves the problem
even more so.
“If it were me now, I would definitely die. I couldn’t even get a proper wound and I was miserable.”
Upon hearing my answer, the doppelganger’s laugh grew louder. As if he didn’t care about my body, which was already more than half gone.
– Yes, that is the truth. Accepting death from the King is all you can do… ..
“You can’t omit the premise.”
– What?
Looking at the doppelganger who stopped talking,
I spoke slowly.
“If it’s me now. That is the most important premise.”
From one day I changed. In order to survive, I had no choice but to change in order to protect it.
He threw away the caution he had cherished while living as an F-class hunter, and at times faced the enemy boldly and recklessly.
And every time I fought a life-or-death battle, I got a good price for the risk.
‘It has been like that until now, and it will be the same in the future.’
The present me and the future me are different.
So the future has to change too. No matter what danger I take, even if it means death, I will definitely change it with my own strength.
That’s all I can do, and it’s the only thing someone unknown has chosen me for.
“An illusion is just an illusion. How the future will change remains to be seen… … I don’t care because there won’t be any youngsters in the world who are likely to die right away.”
What moves the middle battle is the heart (心)
direction), and mental strength is the firmness of the mind.
I’m not swayed by a few horrible illusions, by a few words from my doppelganger.
“And I must have forgotten something important.”
I’m tired. It looks like it will collapse any moment.
But looking down at his hardened doppelganger’s face, he desperately wanted to say this.
“The future has already changed.”
I pulled the corners of my mouth that were hardened in blood. Enduring the pouring drowsiness, he continued.
“Because I ended the plan you made with my own hands.”
Exactly how the doppelganger was trying to achieve what result is unknown.
I wanted to hear about it directly from him, but since it will completely disappear in just a few seconds, it would be futile to ask now.
But if you know everything, that’s enough.
Even if it’s all over the world, if you follow the traces of your doppelgänger and pull out the roots that Guy ■ must have left somewhere, illusions will remain illusions.
There will be peace in a future filled with terrible disasters.
‘can do.’
This is not just a wish, it is a certainty.
The world has finally come together. I sounded an alarm to those who were intoxicated with peace, and poured cold water on the faces of those in power who were ignoring the reality.
And those who are called the sword and shield of mankind, they built countless hunters under one flag.
World Hunter Federation.
gender and race. A group that transcends age and borders.
I am the leader who stands at the pinnacle of that gigantic alliance.
Everyone supported me, and everyone believed in me and followed me. Therefore, the word impossible does not exist anywhere in the mind.
“therefore… …
The tail of a horse that has lost its strength is stretched out.
Contrary to his will, the Skeleton King suddenly approached without a word in the slowly slanting field of vision, stretching out his arms.
buoyed me up
Helped me to continue unfinished words.
“Don’t be afraid to talk shit anymore, put your shoulder around your friend who left earlier and watch it.”
Huung.
The tip of the toe, which was vigorously lowered with a heavy punch.
and that moment. Suddenly, an unknown sight caught in a blurry vision.
‘laugh… … uh?’
As for me, I never knew.
I wonder if the feeling that he laughed was an illusion caused by fatigue. Or was it an incomprehensible reality?
And before he could even look back at that fleeting question, his toe, which already had a weak flame, trampled on the shadow. He led the monster who had lived for a long time to extinction.
bang
Shadows shattered and scattered with a roar. A clear bell ringing in between, announcing the disappearance of the doppelganger.
belt ring.
finished. Finally.
At least for that moment, I definitely thought so.
Until soon after, I heard an unpleasant noise that dug into my ears.
Beep.
– The main quest [Cataclysm] has failed!
… … what?
