The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 197

[Now… Are you trying to play a joke with me? You want to face all of my incarnations at once?]

“You said that test isn’t something that can be done multiple times? It would be nice if I could finish the quest while doing it. is not it?”

[I’m going crazy… Hwashin is literally my alter ego. Each entity shares my power. Do you not know what that means?]

Yor said to Namgung.

[What I mean is that dealing with all the Avatars at once is literally the same as dealing with me.]

“Well, I might have a fight with a phase one day, so it’s not a bad idea to practice.”

[Tsk, tsk, anyway, you lose all your points with your words. What is attached? I could kill you right now.]

“Of course I was saying that because I wouldn’t do that. Even if you die, you can’t be the first to die. is not it? “There are still a lot of fun things to do.”

[It depends on you.]

Yor said, leaning back with his arms crossed.

[If you wish, you can summon all six remaining incarnations. Do you really have to do that? I don’t want to lose my revealer.]

“Why don’t you just help rather than just talk?”

[Hmm, how?]

“Each phase can give its own perks to the participants. And through that, we grant privileges to the revelators.”

The first perk was the Night of Summoners that the Widow of Thornvine started in the red zone.

“And the Mother of Breeze and the One Who Handles the Fireplace gave a second reward, replacing the new Revelator. “Actually, it should have been given to the Revelators after completing the 10th Gate.”

[True.]

“It may mean reducing the gap with the existing Revelators, but there is no way the other Aspects would have easily agreed to that… I think there must have been conditions.”

[He’s quick to notice. As you said, no matter how equally they compete, it is impossible to give the second reward to those two first.]

“And yet we succeeded. That means they paid a high price.”

Namgung looked at Yor.

“I think the price they pay for it is giving up some perks… guess what, am I right?”

[Smart guy. You are right. Both the ‘Month of Abundance’ that Breeze’s mother had planned and the ‘Day of Sparks’ that the fire handler had planned were cancelled.]

“You are really selfish. “For carnival participants, it is painful that two special benefits have disappeared.”

Because the privilege was the only benefit of the carnival that everyone could receive.

Its disappearance meant that humanity’s average combat power also decreased.

[Actually, if you look at the carnival in a larger sense, we are the participants. The Revelator is just our word, and the rest of humanity is just a sidekick.]

Yor said.

[It is a difference in importance.]

“I don’t want to waste my time listening to useless excuses. “What I want is that in exchange for giving up the privilege of the seven snakes, I also want to receive the Revelator’s second Noble Phantasm.”

[Up until now, you have been pretending that your words are for the benefit of humanity. In the end, you also choose your own weapon.]

“Those guys and I are different. Because instead of giving up a perk, I’m closing six doors. “Wouldn’t that be a lot more beneficial than receiving the perks of the seven snakes?”

Namgung responded to Yor, who raised the corner of his mouth.

[That’s when you pass the test.]

“It’s preparation for that.”

[Do you really want to give up the perks of the Seven Snakes and get the second phase Noble Phantasm? It’s a little disappointing…]

Yor quenched his appetite.

[When the other guys were suspicious of you and opened Woo’s cave, I made a strong threat. When my privilege moment comes, I will drive it properly.]

“Good. You can do that now. “If we had said so in advance, wouldn’t we be able to open the Three Poison Gates of Gold?”

[Arthur, boy. In your past life, have you ever seen the Three Poison Gates open?]

Namgung shook his head.

“I would have said I was not a revelator. But how can I see the Three Dogs?”

[The fact that you did not see it means that the golden door was not opened even in your past life. The door of gold is not simply open to the revelator.]

“…Then?”

[Once the door is opened, it will be visible to all participants remaining in the carnival.]

“Does that mean that other people can also obtain the Noble Phantasm of the Three Poison Gates?”

[No way. Samdogmun is not even a bundle of yakshas. How can these people come in and out? Well, you’ll find out later. Anyway, not now. Be satisfied with the silver door.]

Namgung looked disappointed at his words, but it seemed he could no longer be stubborn about refusing outright.

[Keep in mind. The moment you select a Noble Phantasm, the perks of the Seven Snakes disappear.]

Sigh…!!

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens and hundreds of shelves with reports were displayed, like books on shelves in a library.

[Huh… That’s huge.]

[The Daeja clan’s treasury was nothing more than a warehouse compared to Sang Sang’s.]

[That makes sense.] When

the items stored in Eun’s treasury appeared, not only Namgung but also the people with him appeared. The other three souls also could not hide their surprise.

[At first glance, these are rare items.]

[I wonder what they might be…]

That was then.

At the same time as Natas’ words stopped, the presence of Nameless and Lathea was no longer felt.

[The chattering busybodies were sent somewhere else for a while. This is where the rewards of the seven snakes are decided. Only the Revelator is qualified to be here.]

Yor stood up.

[Of course, I will also be away. Take your time and look around and decide. There is only one Noble Phantasm that can be taken. I hope you are careful.]

Grumbling…!!

His body disappeared along with the smoke.

Namgung felt somehow unfamiliar with the silence without the three people present.

“Maybe it’s because I’ve been alone for so long.”

He smiled bitterly and began to examine the items inside one by one.

Inside the display case were all epic grade items.

“That’s amazing…”

Even Namgung, who had seen the reports from various proxy clans, stuck out his tongue when he looked at the items inside.

‘Let’s look at it calmly.’

Each one was still difficult to obtain, but remembering that he had obtained a legendary helmet from the Bronze Gate, he did not make a hasty decision.

“There must be something here…”

Namgung first tried to find the second weapon used by Choi Hwi-soo in his previous life and use it as a standard.

Namgung slowly looked at the weapons on the display stand.

‘There you are.’

And it didn’t take long for Namgung to find a familiar weapon.

Numbering 37.

Name: Monk’s Crown of Thorns

Grade: Epic (Highest)

▶ A crown of thorns placed on one’s head after attaining enlightenment after completing a long period of monasticism.

▶ The thorns in the coffin tighten on the user more and more as time passes.

▶ The greater the pain, the more power the holder desires.

Namgung took out a coffin made of dried tree branches from the display case.

“Was it this kind of ability?”

He thought of Choi Hwi-soo’s corpse.

It was a terrible sight, with a hole from the forehead to the back of the head as if a nail had been driven into it.

Namgung remembered the traces of the thorns of the crown of thorns digging into his head.

“It is the power that the possessor desires…”

It was a meaningless question, but I was curious about what Choi Hwi-su wanted at that time.

Tuk

Namgung put down the crown of thorns he was holding.

‘Proportionality between pain and power is no different from ultimately driving the possessor to a cliff.’

“No matter how powerful it is, it is useless if you die.”

He looked at the display case again without even paying attention to the crown of thorns.

‘Hmm… 【Brilliant Soul】, 【Phoenix’s Ashes】, and 【Blood Hunger】….

The weapons he had his eye on were powerful enough to survive until the latter half of the carnival with just one of these.

‘Among these, [Blood Hunger] is the weapon I have seen in person…’

A small hatchet placed in a display case.

The blade of the ax was dark red, as if blood had hardened, and although the weapon was a weapon, a gloomy aura was felt in the blood.

‘He is probably a beheaded demon who was a follower of Choi Hwi-su along with Kiman Yan.’

If you think about it, the number of people he killed was not that small compared to the two people.

He was such a murderer, but for some reason, I haven’t heard his name yet.

‘Well, maybe he’s already dead.’

Or, as in the case of Choi Hwi-soo, if it were a normal world, he might not have done such a thing at all.

“It’s not okay to have things that have a story.”

Namgung recited what he said when he first met Gyu-ryu before the carnival started, while looking at his bag.

“Because you will be cursed.”

He looked away from the hatchet.

“It’s not easy.”

Namgung understood why Yor made the spiritual bodies disappear.

It was similar to choosing a reward at the Ghoul King’s gravesite.

No, it was actually more difficult.

‘At the cemetery, even if I had only one chance, most of them were weapons I knew, but here, on the contrary, most of them were things I didn’t know…’ I

thought it would have been more convenient if there had been people to give advice.

“Are they all epic items?”

I had some expectations because of Leoric’s helmet, but considering that there was a gold door, which was the next level, it was not surprising that there were no legendaries here.

“The rest look similar….”

As expectations were high, disappointments were also great, so Namgung couldn’t hide the feeling of being slightly disappointed.

“…hmm?”

It was then.

Namgung was looking inside for a while when a strange object caught his eye.

“Why is this here?”

Strange didn’t mean special.

It just meant that it didn’t suit this place.

“hmm?”

In the treasure chest full of epic items. For some reason, there was one object left without any markings.

No numbering.

Name: Box

Grade: Normal

▶ A box that can hold things.

Namgung picked up the box that looked strange to everyone and laughed.

“Yor did something interesting. “I told you to decide on your own, but you’re giving me hints so openly.”

Snap-

“Would you like to see what I’ve hidden?”

He opened the lid of the box with a light heart, to the point where it seemed ridiculous that he had been worrying about it until now.

“…?”

But the moment he looked inside the box, his eyes shook more violently than before.

This was because what was in it was neither legendary nor epic.

“…Normal grade?”
