The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 252

[Lu… Are you saying that he was involved in you gaining the power of the Aspect? I don’t know what he did, but I hope you don’t trust him too much.]

Yor responded to Namgung’s words with a disapproving expression.

“why?”

[Because he hates me. He may be trying to use you to get revenge on me.]

“Because you are the snake that corrupted humans from paradise to earth?”

[I did not corrupt it. It just set humans free. They are not pets created by God, but they are given the will to live on their own.]

“But you regret that. Otherwise, there’s no way we’d still have the tears of the first humans, right?”

[Do not associate this with my personal affairs.]

Namgung looked at Yor.

It was ironic that the most evil being left in human history and faith was actually the one who cared the most for humanity.

[What should we do now?]

“I guess I should meet Woo. “I decided to give him the Ring of Transformation in exchange for turning humanity into a clan of agents.”

[You know very well that if you give him that, he can be released from the seal.]

“Of course. Tell it to your superiors. “Don’t think about stopping me for no reason.”

[I have seen enough of your power in phase battles, so no one would think like that. Even if you liberate Wu, you cannot stop it, so anyone who opposes your plan will choose to protect the Seal of Ran.]

“What is the reaction of the Aspects?”

[Actually, it’s half and half. It is true that your power to overwhelm Klipt is great, but… I honestly don’t know if you can defeat Ran and Wu who have become one.]

“Even if you have Lu’s power?”

[Just because it is named the beginning does not mean that everything is great. Do you know what is the most important thing in human existence?]

“What is it?”

[It means being alive.]

Yor told him in a low voice.

[For that, what is needed is a body that can contain life. The reason humans are strong is because they have a body.]

“Isn’t that the same for you too?”

Yor shook his head.

[This is just an empty shell. We can change into whatever we want at any time. But you guys are different. A destiny given from birth. It has a stronger meaning than you think.]

“Humans are strong because they have a body…”

But Namgung smiled strangely at his words.

“It looks like you don’t know much about humans yet.”

[…What?]

“The reason mortality is better than immortality is the presence or absence of life, but that is not the standard for determining strength.”

Namgung lightly tapped Yor on the shoulder.

“If you give up your position of authority, how about reincarnating as a human next time? “You don’t get to know a person just by looking at them for hundreds of years.”

[That’s nonsense… So you’re saying that since you gained the power of the Aspect, you’ve come to understand us?]

“At least you’ve come to know much more than you know about humans.”

[Hmph, so what did you learn?]

“I want to liberate you.”

[….]

Yor’s face hardened at Namgung’s words.

[I can hear all sorts of things. It’s not like we’re sealed like Lan and Wu.]

Yor adjusted his expression and pretended not to care, but he realized it instinctively.

This means that Namgoong is even seeing through their dark side.

[Anyway, be careful. Right now, humans may have escaped the danger of the festival, but depending on what you do, the ending could be completely different.]

“Keep in mind.”

[Ran and Ura… wow, my head hurts just thinking about it.]

Yor shook his head as he looked at the back of Namgung leaving.

“Oh, by the way… I guess you don’t know either, so I’ll tell you one more thing.”

[…?]

“The night of martial music will begin.”

[…!!!]

At that moment, Yor’s eyes widened.

[Now wait a minute, what does that mean? A night of dance…! Who on earth started it?]

“That’s just one person. Wu (无) rose to status by obtaining a revealer. “Isn’t it strange to act in a way that brings benefits?”

[Benefits vary depending on the benefit…!! Would I say this if it were something as helpful as Night of the Summoner? I accepted it because I thought I knew what it was!]

“I don’t know either. “Because I didn’t start it.”

[what? Then who?]

“It was a condition that So-min put forward in exchange for accepting Woo’s revealer.”

[That bold little guy always surprises me in everything he does. How on earth did you find out about the Night of Dance?]

“It seemed like it was Su-ah’s condition to Woo, not So-min’s.”

[You mean your dead wife?]

“… That’s right.”

As Namgung answered, he could not hide his bitter feelings at the word ‘dead.’

[Looking at your expression, you don’t seem to know what that is either, so why did you accept it?]

“There’s no particular reason. “I’m just doing it because Su-ah wanted to do it.”

[Is that the end? Are you doing it because your wife told you to do it? I, a guy who is thorough in everything, is extremely sloppy in this regard. “Shouldn’t you at least know what it is before you do it?]

“I just need to get an explanation from you.”

[Ha, man’s boldness sometimes surprises God. No, I don’t know if it’s right to call this boldness.]

Yor muttered while scratching his head.

[The Night of Dance must never happen again.]

“Why?”

[Because that day is the day Ran and Wu were born. The day when the original rift occurred and the great night when dimensions were created. The Aspects also call that day the time of nothingness.]

“Nothing?”

[okay. Since there is nothing, it is also a time when everything is equal and there are no boundaries between the status and creation.]

“When I first heard that story, that is what Wu meant when he said that the status could be killed or humans could be exterminated.”

[I understand what your wife was thinking when she suggested it. When the night of dance really begins, the boundaries between status and humanity disappear.]

“I see.”

Namgung seemed to be able to understand his wife’s intentions a little more now.

[It’s too early to like it. Just because the boundary is broken down doesn’t mean that the conditions will be the same. Ran and Wu are still strong, and you are at best like an ant holding a knife in front of them.]

“Even an ant can stab a vital point.”

[Do you know the critical point?]

“I have to find out now.”

Yor clicked his tongue and looked at his back.

[Have you ever been to Wu’s fortress?]

“Not yet. Somin has become his revealer, so if you give her the ring, the gate to the fortress will open.”

[Hmm… Then take this.]

Yor threw him a small key.

“What is this?”

[It is the key to the Golden Gate among the Three Reading Gates. Take the necessary equipment with you before going to the fort. It may not have any particular meaning, but it is still better than leaving empty-handed.]

“…Thank you.”

[This is nonsense, don’t die. Well, honestly, I can’t imagine a future where you die.]

Namgung chuckled.

[However, it is equally impossible to imagine you achieving divine death. This is my first time experiencing such anxiety.]

“Isn’t it fun?”

[…what? You think this is fun?]

“Humans always live without knowing tomorrow. “Every day, I step out in such anxiety.”

When Namgung waved his hand, a portal appeared in front of him.

“That’s why humans are strong.”

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssbt!

His figure disappeared into the portal and Yor stood in the empty space with his mouth closed.

* * *

[I was waiting.]

“There’s no need to wait.”

[Then write it. How long did you wait? It’s time to fulfill your promise. Isn’t it?]

“It’s here.”

Namgung gave a ring to Woo, who was trapped in the cave of Ran.

[Kukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…?

When Woo (无) received the ring and put it on his finger, everything that was holding him back started to melt in an instant.

[Khahahaha–!!]

He laughed like crazy and slowly got up.

His eyes turned as white as Namgung’s, and he strode out of the barrier.

[Finally…]

Standing outside the barrier, he inhaled as hard as he could and lightly tapped Namgung’s head as if praising him.

[I am free. This is all thanks to you.]

“Get your hands off me. “Insolent.”

[Kkkkkk. Anyway, he’s a fun guy. Even the greats would bow their heads in front of me. You can say sassy things well.]

“I just killed one of those high-ranking people. It wasn’t a big deal, right? “If it’s at that level, it’s worth the punishment.”

Kwaang―――!!!

At that moment, Namgung’s body flew and crashed into the wall of the cave.

[You’re no different.]

“Well?”

[….]

Surprisingly, Namgung, who thought he had been pushed into the wall, was standing behind Woo without a problem.

[Look at this? Can I already use Klipt’s abilities? Good good. The guy who wants to end the carnival has to do something like this.]

“…Give me the key to the fortress.”

As if he wasn’t completely shocked, Namgung wiped the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

[What a greedy human being. Yes, you can take whatever you want. Because these are insignificant things to me right now.]

“Are you going to go see Ran?”

[Of course.]

“The Aspects must be waiting for you?”

[There is no way that things that are trampled on by you can stop me.]

“Don’t look down on them. Yor is strong.”

[okay? i get it. I will rip off his head and give it to you as a gift.]

Namgung picked up the key Woo threw and looked at him.

[Your role is now complete. Don’t worry, I will get rid of the carnival. I will give you eternal freedom.]

Woo said happily.

[The freedom of death.]

Rumbling…!!

Wu’s appearance disappeared along with black flames.

Wow…

Namgung held the key to the fortress and let out a low breath.

“It’s a festival outside, but here it’s a battlefield.”

“…father.”

He answered without even turning his head.

This is because the only person who could enter this place was Nam Ki-cheol, who could break through the barrier with the power of the Black Root.

“I plan to go to the fortress and retrieve Origin.”

“Is there any chance of victory? Even divine weapons are ultimately items of status. “No matter how powerful something is, it cannot kill God.”

“I know. I don’t think I could kill him with that either. “No weapon has ever been made to kill a god.”

“then?”

“So we have to make it.”

Squeak –

In an instant, a chain appeared on his wrist where there was nothing.

“A weapon that can kill God.”
