Apocalypse’s All-Rounder Mischief

Master of Fate (3)

A narrow gap created in a large-dimensional space.

Junyoung was hiding there with Patus, observing Benator's movements.

Although Benator was within walking distance of his hand and reaching for a few steps.

Benator only churns around like a riot, but he can't seem to find where Junyoung and Patus are.

He is only destroying the small worlds that exist in the airspace of Patus.

"It's the worst for those small worlds."

Junyoung spoke with a confused expression, but Patus did not show any signs of regret.

Rather, it was a look of joy.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen Benator so excited. It’s kind of refreshing.”

Junyoung was taken aback by her words.

“Is it refreshing? Are you okay with the destruction of the small worlds under your control?”

“It’s nothing. I just accept it.”

“You just accept it?”

“Venator is something I can’t do anything about. As he said to you, I am destiny, he is destiny. Even if hundreds or thousands of beings like me gather, you cannot defeat Benator. Because Venator is the master of fate that rules fate.”

A very fleeting but bitter look appeared on Patus's expression and then disappeared.

Then she immediately looked into her calm eyes and spoke her words.

“What Venator does is my destiny, so I have no other choice but to accept it.”

“It’s nice to be able to accept that.”

If he can't help himself, does he just accept it without worrying about it?

It's easy to say, but if that's possible, could he be a machine or a human?

Pathus is also a system-like entity, so it's possible.

Junyoung is different from him.

‘Fate and Nabal.’

Junyoung felt extreme anger at not being able to do anything while watching the actions of a guy like me who tramples on the beings of the small world as he pleases.

“But the only exception is now.”

Pathus looked at Junyoung with strange eyes.

“The only exception?”

“It’s you. Originally, the end was destined for me the moment I went against Benator's will. It's normal for him to be eaten with all my powers taken away from him. But as you can see, I am alive now.”

Junyoung burst into laughter.

“That’s right, I saved you, of course.”

“Of course not. No one can get me out of Benator's grasp. Even if you are an Escanunylus on whom you implicitly depend.”

This surprised Junyoung.

“You knew about Escanunilus, too.”

"of course. You might be surprised, but I've been as much interested in you as Benator, and I've been watching you. So the secrets you thought you didn't know are actually known to me."

“You know my secret?”

“Things where you became a commander from a human, earned the fame of a god, and learned how to transform into a Hariek.”

Junyoung's eyes widened.“Then you mean you knew from the beginning that I wasn’t Hariek?”

Patus nodded.

“You thought I didn’t know?”

“Then why did you pretend you didn’t know?”

“Because you crossed the upper limit.”

upper limit?

It was the first time I heard it.

Junyoung looked at him as if he was asking what it was, and Patus explained it without delay.

“The upper limit is the standard and limit set by me, my destiny. Surprisingly, you have transcended that limit. You are the only one like that.”

It's been a while since Junyoung transcended human limits.

It even transcended not only the limits of humans but also the limits of avatar-class gods, reaching the level of Patus.

It is because it has reached the present state by repeating transcendence over transcendence.

“Did you just look at me for exceeding the standards you set?”

Junyoung had a hard time believing Patus' words.

Because Pathus, a demonic system without blood or tears, could not have done Junyoung such a favor.

But he couldn't help believing that.

There is no reason for Patus to lie at this moment.

“I didn’t watch it. I've always wanted to kill you, do you have any reason to watch it?"

“If you were going to kill me, it would have been a perfect opportunity when I appeared in the form of Hariek.”

“It would have been. But then I didn't know you weren't Hariek."

Junyoung stared at Pathus.

“You said you already knew, but now you don’t know, which one is right?”

“Both are right. Because I, who was hiding from me, who didn't know about you, was watching."

“You who were hiding?”

In an instant, both of Patus' eyes shone brightly again.

“I have two selves. One is the original age that you hate so much, and the other is the one who is as favorable to you as I am now.”

“So, is this because it’s multiple personalities?”

“It’s similar, but it’s completely different because it only activates depending on the target. You are the only one whose hidden self has been active. And from the moment I surrendered to you, my outer self was gone.”

Only after hearing those words did Junyoung understand what Pathus was.

Pathus has a demonic self and an angelic self.

However, the angel's ego only wakes up in a very special case, that is, in front of a being who has crossed the upper limit of fate, otherwise the ego of the devil is in control.

‘He’s a complicated guy in many ways.’

Pathus seems to have as many mysterious corners as his beautiful appearance.

What is certain is that such a Pathus succumbed to Junyoung, so she was not hiding all her own secrets and was confessing.

“My hidden self can control my revealed self. That means I have controlled the deadly secrets about you from the outside.”

In other words, the angel Pathus controlled the intelligence of the demon Pathus.

“Is it because I broke the upper bound of fate?”

"of course. I actually thought it would be impossible. I wanted you to grow until you continue to push the limits and subdue me.”

These were the words of Pathus' sincerity.

Junyoung nodded.

It is unusual that a strange being with two egos was Patus.

And now the demon Pathus has disappeared and only the Angel Pathus seems to remain.

It is only limited to Junyoung, and to others, it still exists as a demon pathus.

It can be too dangerous to leave it as it is.

“No matter how different you are, I have no intention of keeping you alive. You must be punished for what you have done.”

The sin of destroying the Earth and many other small worlds.

will definitely be punished.

At the words of Junyoung's resolute will, Pathus nodded as if it was natural.

“I promise. So do it whenever you want. Any punishment will be sweetly received.”

As she spoke her words, she trembled slightly with a look of fear.

It's like a dead cat shivering.

Are you afraid of being punished?

This doesn't sound like Patus.

Where are you pretending to be pitiful?

“It’s no use pretending to be pitiful. When the time is right, I will punish you.”

"know. Even if you don’t emphasize it like that, I know it well.”

Patus replied with a sullen expression.

“And now, wouldn’t it be better to get out of here than to scare me?”

“Of course I will.”

Even if not, Junyoung was constantly watching Benator's movements and creating new niches.

However, it was not easy to create a gap because the flow of the surrounding dimensional winds became rough.

It was because Benator was moving quickly through the passageway that existed in the first place and was making a fuss.

It was clear that Junyoung was trying to seal off the space he was going to escape from.

“Do you know where that passage leads to?”

Junyoung asked if Patus knew about it.

"of course. It’s a safe passageway that exists from the beginning.”

“Is it like a passage to another dimension?”

“No, I don’t think there is a path to another dimension.”

“Is there no such passage?”

“Because I couldn’t find it. I searched for Benator so much, let alone me, but I couldn't find it."

“Isn’t it somewhere I couldn’t find it?”

“It could be. But I don't think there is such a way.”

but.

Junyoung is also guessing at first glance.

It means that only special beings can go to another dimension.

Only those who have the ability to create a new niche on their own can go, not the path given in the first place.

‘I can make a niche, but it’s so slow it’s still just a dream.’

On the other side of the Great Dimension, other dimensional planes shining like stars from afar.It may take an infinite amount of time to move to any of Junyoung's current abilities.

‘Isn’t this also going to be faster if there is a trick?’

Meanwhile, Junyoung has moved quite a bit from where Benator is.

It certainly seems a little faster than when I first made the niche.

This is also thanks to the desire to use divine power and dimensional power harmoniously.

“Then it looks like that passage can only go inside this dimension.”

"right. It is a passage that extends into the great dimension, but it is actually a space that leads to the residences of monarchs such as me, Papilio, and Stella. The same goes for Benator’s residence.”

This is possible because the monarchs' residences were built along the existing pathways, not the passages that followed the residences of the monarchs.

Only then did Junyoung understand why Benator and Papilio were able to go back and forth between Patus' residence.

"and."

Pathus pointed to a place.

“In addition to passages like that, there are secret spaces in the great dimension.”

“A secret space?”

Junyoung looked at where Pathus was pointing.

A narrow gap appeared between the wildly luminous dimensional winds.

It is a place so secretly hidden that it is difficult to recognize it by looking at it if you have not focused on it.

“What is that?”

“It’s my own place I found. A place that even Benator does not know.”

Patus said proudly.

Junyoung burst into laughter.

Anyway, it's a smaller gap than the space he made, but I was wondering what that meant.

“Don’t look down on me. But thanks to hiding there earlier, I was able to help you.”

“Is that so?”

Junyoung nodded.

Come to think of it, it was because he was hiding in that secret space that Pathus was able to convey his intentions secretly when he played games with Benator.

“Then why didn’t you run over there earlier? I could have avoided it enough without my help.”

“I wanted to, but then I was under the power of Benator. If you hadn't saved me, I'd just be helpless."

The fact that they have no power in the face of the power of bondage unfolded by the fate of the top predators in the food chain.

Again, to the lords of fate, Benator is literally like a natural enemy.

“But there’s a box in that gap that I can’t open.”

“A box?”

“A box that I cannot touch and therefore cannot open. There is no information displayed, so it is impossible to identify the identity.”

Pathus spoke, twinkling his eyes.

“But somehow, I was wondering if you could open the box.”

“I don’t know what it is, but would you like to go?”

It's unusual that there is a box that even Patus, the lord of fate, can't open.

There must be something unusual in it.

‘Is it a treasure chest from the great dimension?’

It wasn't too far from the secret space of Pathus, so it wasn't difficult to create a gap and move.
