The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 1

A knight wearing black armor and red eyes stood holding a severed head.

The knight, covered in blood that had accumulated over time and hardened into dark red, knelt in front of a man.

[Crrrrr….]

The knight standing in front of the man was not human.

The inside of the armor was empty, and what occasionally came out of the helmet was a cloudy gas like smoke.

[Kyaaaaaaah–!!!]

Above the ruins of the city, a huge door resembling an eye was open.

And inside, unknown monsters were still pouring out.

It has been 25 years since the dimensional passage named Hell Gate was opened.

The world has changed and humanity has perished.

Except yourself.

Squeak –

The man opened the door of the broken down store that was practically in ruins. On the floor were torn up sleeping bags and skinned dried meat that seemed to have been used by him.

Tung –

He sat down at the old bar and took out the bottle of alcohol he had kept. There was barely enough alcohol left in the bottle to take a sip.

I drank sparingly and sparingly, but I was almost at the bottom. Still, I saved the last sip for this day.

Squeak –

He poured the glass as if he were handling treasure.

“Phew…”

He muttered softly and drank the alcohol in his glass in one go.

Then, I slowly opened my closed eyes.

With a click,

as if he had made up his mind, he opened the door to the warehouse behind the bar.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu of…

Surprisingly, even though it was a city without a single streetlight, there was a makeshift generator running inside the warehouse.

Sssssssssssssssshhhh…!

When I opened the door, a chill that pierced my bones rushed in. The black knight handed the severed head he was holding to the man.

I couldn’t tell the depth of the warehouse, but I knew it was from another world, not from reality.

But what was more surprising than that was what was inside.

The huge warehouse filled with devices was filled with countless severed heads.

A whopping 666665.

Tung –

And now the man filled in the last part.

[Kyaaaaagh—!!!!]

At that moment, the severed heads began to scream strangely as if they were going crazy.

“….”

It was a terrible sight, but the man’s expression did not change at all.

The expressions of the heads screaming at themselves with their eyes wide open were varied, but they had one thing in common.

Odd eyes of different colors, sharp canine teeth, even sharp ears…

it was not human.

[Damn it… I didn’t do anything to you…]

That was then.

The severed head that had been thrown in a moment ago opened its eyes and spoke to the man.

“They say it’s a demon that controls immortality and souls… I wonder if it’s still alive even though its limbs are chopped off.”

[…Let me ask you just one question. What do you want by doing such crazy things?]

“I’m going back to the past.”

[Do you think you can change the future by going to the past? You are just a human being. They’re no different from us!!]

“I’m going to meet my daughter.”

[Only because of that?]

The severed head burst into laughter at the man, as if asking what nonsense he was talking about.

“At best?”

The man never forgot what happened 25 years ago.

No, I couldn’t forget it.

Phew-!!!

The man plunged a dagger into the top of the severed head.

[Kaaaaah…!!!]

“There are people who risk their lives just because of that.”

Heedless of the screams, he stabbed the dagger several more times.

If all humanity disappears and a spell is created using the heads of 666666 high-level demons, the time axis can be twisted.

It sounds crazy, but this was the only thing I could rely on.

[Do you think they… will stay still?]

The man knew very well who the demon was talking about.

Phase.

Eight outliers who are so-called gods.

They were the ones who opened the portal and the damn beings who turned this world into hell.

“okay. They might notice. “This is also an arrangement they made.”

He smiled coldly.

“But although they are omnipotent, they are not omniscient. “Even if it was the arrangement they made, they wouldn’t know from the beginning that I was a regressor.”

Wow…!!

The man pulled out the sword that was stuck in the demon’s head.

“Whether it’s a phase or something…”

The life that was radiating at that moment seemed colder than the cold air in the warehouse where the demon’s body was stored.

“If you interfere with me, I will kill everyone.”

Grumbling–!!!

At that moment, the severed heads of the demons began to burn black.

▶ We hunted the devil in the stump.

▶ We collected the corpses of all existing high-level demons.

▶ I am the only survivor.

▶ All conditions have been fulfilled.

▶ The quest has been completed.

The city’s alarm rang.

In fact, it was a miserable ruin that could not even be called a city.

One of them is Seoul.

What the man accomplished was an incredible feat, but no cheers were heard in the ghost town where no one was alive.

[Crrrrr….]

Only the knight standing behind him knelt in front of him as if he was saying goodbye.

“We will meet again. But then it will definitely be different from now.”

The man spoke to him.

“We will make the damn bastards who made this world kneel at our feet.”

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…!!

His vision turned white.

▶ Time-space shock is triggered.

* * *

I opened my eyes.

It was on the bed. A room with the lights off.

The unbroken ceiling, which was the first thing I saw, was still rather unfamiliar. I clenched my fist and then opened it.

He turned his palm over. The severed little finger was cleanly attached, and the palm, which was covered in scars and calluses, was clean.

“….”

Namgung stood up.

The image of himself in the mirror across from him was stranger than a complete house, but he picked up his cell phone as if he had no interest in himself.

“I’m back.”

2020. October 8th.

The child’s face appears on the lock screen along with the numbers written on the screen.

He hurriedly opened the door.

It’s still early in the morning.

The child on the screen was asleep on a bed in a cutely decorated room.

I heard an audible breathing and felt the vitality in my flushed cheeks. The child who was sleeping and hugging the doll was clearly alive.

“…Somin.” At that moment

,

a tear fell from his eye and down his cheek.

The one person I so desperately wanted to meet again.

It was his daughter.

Saegeun… Saegeun…

It was only when Namgung touched that angel-like cheek that he was able to realize it.

Wow-!!

Namgung hugged the child.

“Ugh… Dad?”

The child, who had not yet woken up, rubbed his eyes and looked at Namgoong who was hugging him.

“I miss you.”

“What… it’s late at night… go to sleep.”

The child got out of Namgung’s arms and lay down on the bed with an annoyed expression, as if he wanted to sleep more.

I’m only 13 years old now.

In the past, I thought my daughter had grown up a lot.

Namgung once again felt that his daughter’s hands were very delicate and small.

He

held his daughter’s hand.

“I missed you so much.”

This is not a bloody hand buried in the rubble of a house that collapsed in an instant that day when the gates of hell opened.

“My daughter.”

He closed his eyes, holding that hand as if he would never let go again.

“It’s enough… It’s enough now…”

He repeated the same words several times as he was filled with emotions.

Memories of 25 years of hell flashed through his mind like a flash, but the moment he saw his daughter, he felt like everything was compensated.

“October 8…”

But even for a moment, the feeling that instinctively filled Namgoong’s whole body was not the joy of meeting the daughter he had longed for.

A thought ringing in his head like a warning.

He knew.

That this unbroken reality cannot continue.

3 days before the gates of hell open.

The day something extraordinary happens, the world changes completely.

“Will I… be able to protect you this time?”

He had lived for only that one thing, but when he thought of that hell again, Namgung’s shoulders trembled without realizing it.

Because protecting this delicate, small child, rather than surviving on your own, meant having to overcome numerous dangers.

Wow –

nevertheless, it has to be done.

▶ A weak soul was detected.

▶ The soul is looking at you.

▶ Ability: Acquired spiritual power.

▶ Learn necromancy (beginner level).

▶ Soul Eye Lv1 is activated.

“…!!”

It was then.

Namgung couldn’t help but be surprised by the notification ringing in his head.

“Hasn’t the ability disappeared?”

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

looking looking at the magic circle that appeared in his hands he was astonished.

“why…? There are still three days left until the door opens…”

I didn’t know why.

Is it an effect of twisting the time axis, or is it a returner’s privilege?

But what is clear is that the ability of the previous life has been opened.

At that moment, Namgung swallowed dry saliva without realizing it as he looked at the light smoke surrounding the picture frame.

It was a photo of a woman lying in a hospital bed holding her newborn baby.

“Sua….”

The last photo of my wife before she was alive.

Namgung called her name softly and picked up the picture frame with trembling hands.

▶ Your feeble soul comforts you.

▶ The spirit of the soul permeates you.

Drool….

Tears flowed down Namgung’s cheeks.

He collapsed, hugging the picture frame.

As the tears I had barely held back poured out, I became so emotional that I couldn’t control it.

“I can’t believe I… can see you.”

Namgung tried to touch the fog-like smoke.

But his hands just passed through the air, unable to touch anything.

“Huh… “

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu]]…..”…..”…..”…”)…

Ironically, for the first time, I was grateful for the abilities I gained in my terrible past life.

How much time has passed?

Namgung held his chest, which had seeped into his soul, and slowly exhaled.

“…Let’s not be weak.”

Namgung said as if he was making a promise to himself.

Wow-!!

When I hit my cheek hard with both hands, I felt a tingling sensation and finally gained the courage to face reality straight ahead.

‘…now is important.’

It is not simply a return to the past.

It was an opportunity to achieve numerous achievements that he could not have achieved in his previous life by mobilizing all the memories he had seen, heard, and collected in his past life over the past 25 years.

‘The most important thing among them all is…’

In the past, there were eight strong men called the Eight Stars.

They called themselves the Revelers chosen by the Aspect and achieved faster growth than anyone else after the gates of Hell were opened.

‘He was once praised as the savior of mankind.’

One of the survivors of Palmuseong said this to Namgung before he died.

“The reason we were able to become stronger than others is because we experienced the gates of hell faster than others.”

At first, Namgung found it difficult to understand what he was saying.

October 11th.

This is because the gates of hell that were pouring out monsters were created simultaneously around the world that day.

“The gates of hell opened on the 11th.”

The survivor told him a secret.

Three days ago, the gates of hell were already opened.

“…The Test of the Revelator.”

It was a kind of benefit that only the eight people chosen by the phase could receive.

‘Those who pass it can gain the power of phase.’

That way, they were able to start with much more compensation than others on October 11th, which they recognize as the day the world changed.

“I’ll take it this time.”

Namgung spoke in a low voice.

Although it was a small sound.

It was the beginning of monopolizing food.

* * *

Euljiro Underground Shopping Mall.

As I went down the stairs, I felt a gloomy chill that was quite different from the bright midday atmosphere.

“….”

Namgung looked around.

Although he felt like a bitch, he walked forward without hesitation.

Kiikeik –

Then he opened the door of the old shopping mall.

The door looked dangerous, as if it would break at any moment with even the slightest force.

“Before business. That’s strange. No one will come to visit yet…”

A surprising sound was heard from inside a building that looked like a ruin and no one would live there.

“No one is coming to visit yet… You sound like you know in advance that guests will come. I wonder if there will be someone coming to visit today?”

“…What brought you here?”

“I came to buy some things.”

Namgung spoke to the shadow hidden behind the pillars of the building.

“Yaksha (夜叉).”

Stop –

At that moment, the shadow walking towards me stopped.

“…What are you?”
