Chapter 155
Episode 155
One of the seven great princes, a transcendent man who claimed to be the monarch of the end, was there.
An evil spirit who is wounded and bleeds by a sword wielded by a mere human.
After thinking that far, Yoosung burst out laughing. He was never ‘just a human being’. And the monarch of the end in front of the shooting star was also by no means a god.
Monarchs are also bleeding beings.
The sword of the winter night was swung, and the flowing blood was freezing cold in front of the cold of the apocalypse.
The cold of winter that swung at the Lord of the End began to devour his being, centered around the wound.
[“How dare you such a scum...!”]
The Lord of the End raised his voice of hatred with a distorted expression.
Whoa!
At the same time, immeasurable bubbles of apocalypse began to rise again, centered beneath his feet. The bubbles containing the immeasurable destruction of the world exploded one after another, scattering the apocalypse contained within them.
But none of the world's destruction sown by the Lord of the Apocalypse could wound the King of Heroes there.
A hero's job is to protect the world.
Yooseong protected his world from towers, monsters, plague lords, and all sorts of threats that could lead to the destruction of the world. Truly endless.
Therefore, there was no difference even if the being in front of him was the incarnation of the end of the world.
“When I think about it, did I protect the world for a day or two?”
Yoosung answered, adjusting the hilt of the sword. The ‘Lord of the End', who was wounded by the sword of the winter night and being swallowed by the cold, coldly sneered at the sight.
[“Saved the world...?”]
As if he couldn’t bear it because it was so funny amid the bitter hatred that was incomparable to anything else.
[“I am disgusted by your arrogance and foolishness.”]
The cold that was devouring the Lord of the End came to a standstill.
Bubbling. The apocalyptic bubbles that continued to rise and burst endlessly also stopped.
[“Okay, foolish clown’s child. “I will tell you the truth.”]
The Lord of the Apocalypse, who looked like a young boy, said, twisting the corners of his mouth. Yooseong took a deep breath without saying a word.
“The king of heroes, you foolish clown. You don't protect the world. Rather, you are the one truly hastening the destruction of this world.”]
“Oh my, this is such a shocking truth that it takes my breath away.”
However, despite those words, Yoosung did not even blink and just shrugged his shoulders. Because I have seen too much to be shocked by every single truth of the world.
“So what? “Will it disappear gracefully to protect the environment and nature?”
“You guys are the cancer of this world.”]
The Lord of the End answered without any hesitation.
[“And you, the king of heroes,
are nothing but germs who claim to be the guardians of those disgusting tumors and pus.”]
Heroes are not the ones who protect the world. He is the protector of humans.
The title “Enemy of the World” that Yooseong had as a player was proof of that.
And the apocalypse that describes him as the king of the apocalypse in front of him was by no means the ‘end of the world.’ In any case, it was just the end of humanity.
Likewise, the world protected by the King of Heroes was also just a world of humans.
Heroes don't protect the world. Just
protecting humans.
“You mercilessly eat away at the life of the star you stand on, and in your endless greed you move from star to star, eating up the life of this universe. They are willing to even hasten the destruction of this world if it is for their own survival.”]
Therefore, the wounded Lord of the End raised his head.
Despite being a being with the name of the end, paradoxically, it was fighting to protect this world. And for that, he was willing to cry for the end of humans.
Finally, the apocalyptic bubbles he was scattering were not the end of the world. It was just the end of humans.
Just as the world inside this tower that the shooting star does not know about is destroyed and the surviving humans turn into monsters one by one and die.
“Humans are creatures not worth saving.”]
“That’s right.”
Yoosung expressed his agreement, saying it was nothing new.
“Disappear.”]
Therefore, the Lord of the End did not hesitate any longer.
Whoa!
Once again, countless bubbles rose from beneath his feet. And then it exploded.
A force of destruction that could not even be compared to before raged. The power that the monarch of the end can show as a great prince has been revealed.
No, it was about to unfold.
“Oh, let’s stop there.”]
But at that moment, the swirling power disappeared like a lie.
At the same time, there was a monarch who blocked Yooseong’s path.
He was not the lord of the game.
The clown monarch, wearing a smiling clown mask, was blocking Yoosung's path.
.......
「You cannot defeat that child, the end of humans.」]
[The Clown Lord mocks the Lord of the End without hiding his sneer.]
『The end of humans, I will defeat you and bring about the end of humanity. “Protecting the world is a hero’s job.”]
“Really? Then what are you afraid of blocking my way?”]
[The Lord of the End asks coldly.]
“Get in my way? “What am I?”]
The Lord of the Apocalypse asked back, and the Lord of Clowns burst into laughter. And it was not up to the buffoon overlord to answer that question.
[“The ‘influence’ you can exercise in this world ends here.”]
[The Lord of the Game answers solemnly.]
[“And in this tower, you were defeated by the King of Heroes.”]
The Lord of the Game calmly says He continued speaking.
“The King of Heroes stood against you and prevented the destruction of this world. Therefore, according to the rules, this world will belong to the territory of the ‘Machine Lord’ who supported him.”] [
“...!”]
“You have won again, child who protects the human world.”]
[Machine The Device Lord praises the performance of player Kang Yoo-seong!] 『Ah
, you have once again protected the ‘world of humans'!
‘
Their expressions all became distorted.
[“Don’t be funny. “I still…!”]
And as if he couldn’t accept that decision, he tried to discard his abilities again. But that was right then.
The air in the area stood still.
——The sound of laughter from the clown monarch, who was twisting his body like crazy and giggling, also stopped.
The Clown Lord stopped laughing and opened his mouth. The body is twisted in a bizarre way and the upper body is bent.
[“What’s so funny?”]
asked ‘Tomb of Heroes’, wearing a shooting star-like black business suit and a smiling clown mask.
It was a cold voice without even the slightest emotion.
And in front of that question, the Lord of the Apocalypse, who looked like a young boy, quietly closed his mouth.
The end of men and the graves of heroes. At first glance, there seemed to be no reason for the ‘Lord of the Apocalypse' to be afraid of the Clown Lord, who was nothing more than a tomb for defeated heroes.
Nevertheless...
“Ah ah....”]
The Lord of the Apocalypse took a step back, clenching his teeth like a frightened child. As if trembling and begging for forgiveness in front of something that one cannot dare to offend.
The being who did not hide his ridicule and contempt in front of Yooseong, the king of heroes, was unable to hide his fear and fear in front of the ‘Tomb of Heroes', which he would reach after being crushed and defeated.
The Clown Lord was still silent.
The clown monarch, who was silent in the silence, still had his upper body bent and in an extremely bizarre posture.
Hee hee hee hee.
After the silence, laughter rang out again. After a loud laugh that almost made me laugh, the clown monarch stood up with his twisted and bent body.
[“It’s a joke, it’s a joke!”]
——That was it.
In the blink of an eye, the monarchs disappeared all at once.
Both the immediate game and Jester Lord of the Apocalypse were no exception. The oppressed air returned to its original state, and the world that had lost color and stood still began to move again.
Tick.
As the clock hands moved, the girl who wished to die as a human also began to move.
“Oh man...”
Amidst the wriggling tentacles, the girl is gradually losing her human form and becoming closer to a monster. The girl looked at the shooting star as if begging.
“I hate monsters...
“There’s nothing to worry about.”
That's why Yooseong said as he approached the girl with the upper body of a human. It seems like there is nothing to worry about.
“As promised by the Machine Lord, I will offer you this world that I acquired from the Lord of the End.”
‘*......2″
The girl didn't understand Yooseong's words for a moment and tilted her head. Those weren't even directed at her in the first place.
“Follow your promise according to the contract.
“Don't worry, child. “Hey. Do you think I'm just like you humans?”]
[The Mechanism Lord giggles happily.]
“The promise will be fulfilled.”]
A message appeared. At the same time, the entire landscape came to a standstill. The world clock once again. The needle stopped.
That was it. When
Yoosung turned his head, the girl's existence was frozen again, unable to even properly communicate. The scenery of the world was quickly darkening, and Yoosung's presence was also moving away from the world in the tower. Nevertheless, Yoosung was moving away from the world in the tower
. He remained silent.
Following his decision, all he could do was come to an end. All that was left was to wait for the outcome of his choice.
[I conquered the post-apocalyptic tower...]
[Secret achievement: ‘The final ‘I have achieved ‘human'
! Achievement score...】
Some time after that, as a player, I was in the middle of conquering a certain tower. The message
“Entering the store...”
came up and Yooseong looked up. I heard:
“Mister.”
When I looked up, there was a girl with mechanical humpback feet. She looked very familiar.
“I wanted to see you.”
At the same time, an inorganic voice came out of the girl’s mouth. It was a mechanical voice no different from any other time.
“Yes.”
Yoosung smiled quietly at that voice, and the girl continued,
“You’ve collected a lot of achievement points. I’ve collected a lot. I’ll praise you. You’re very special.”
“Oh my gosh, I’m so thankful I don’t know what to do with myself.”
The conversation continued calmly as usual:
“Buy me a pack of cards.”
“good.”
” really?”
O “Huh.
“Shinhwa will rise.”
“Okay, let’s see if you believe it.”
Yoosung smiled bitterly and purchased a card pack from the girl. A cloud of light swirled around, the card pack was opened, and a system message rang out. “Did you get the
myth skill?”
[Wow! What a card!]
[Normal skill...acquired!]
“Gimme one more. Next time it will really pop.”
” really?”
“huh.”
The girl nodded, and Yoosung smiled kindly and answered,
“Would you like me to give you some taffy?”
