114

A man is struggling to cross the desert, enduring the scorching sun.

He wanted to throw away the rags immediately, but he couldn't because the sun would burn his skin if he did.

The man was from Algeria and was a survivor of what is now hell in Africa.

The desert he is crossing is the famous Sahara.

He was heading there at risk to meet the hero Isaac, who is now said to be settled in Mali.

‘I’m thirsty… … .'

But it also reached its limit.

There is so little water left that you will not be able to cross this long desert successfully if you drink it sparingly.

But if I didn't drink it, I felt like my throat was going to burn right now.

The man decided to moisten his parched throat a little, and opened the lid of the water bottle.

The lid opened with a popping sound.

The water was hot, not lukewarm, but the man didn't care and swallowed only enough to wet his tongue.

"under."

It's just that you wet your tongue.

The stiff esophagus was relieved, but it asked for more water.

With a long way to go, the man closed the lid.

No, he was trying to close.

“Oh!”

Suddenly the ground sank down.

The bucket of water fell to the floor and spilled.

He hurriedly picked up the water bottle.

Fortunately, there was little water left.

the problem is.

“Ahhhhhhhh!”

It is impossible to escape from the extended ant hell in an instant.

The man struggled, but the more he did, the more his body was sucked deeper and deeper.

At that moment, a black jewel with a strange shape entered the man's eyes.

The black jewel was mixed with dark colors, and the man stretched out his hand towards it as if possessed by his ghost.

As soon as the man grabbed the jewel, his eyes disappeared from life.

He said.

“Eat the world.”

Darkness has arisen in the middle of the Sahara Desert.

Mare smiled and opened her mouth.

“Fortunately, I can survive.”

“Aren’t you the cause of the great disappearance?”

"Yes. Sorry, I found him in Marcana. And I found out that he was born on Earth. I thought it was fate, and I helped him get back home.”

“Then, who is responsible for the great disappearance… … ?”

“Sometimes there are holes in the universe that can't be understood. You called it a wormhole. Earth would be no exception, so I thought that was what made him go to Marcana.”

“Then it wouldn’t have been called the Great Disappearance.”

“Before that, what was the Great Disappearance?”

Park Hyunsoo gave a brief account of the disappearance.

Mare turned her thoughtful face, but she then shook her head and said.

“I really don’t know. Even if it is probabilistic, there is no way that wormholes were created simultaneously for so many children.”

“… … Is it the military’s work?”

"no. At that time, the military had not yet discovered Earth.”

For a long time he watched the army's every move.

Although he had been away for extended periods of time for work he had to do, even then he made arrangements for a way of monitoring and was away.

The military discovered Earth less than six years ago.

Park Hyunsoo frowned.

The Great Disappearance is more than 10 years old.

If the military didn't do it, it means that someone else had caused the great disappearance.

“Is anyone other than the military aiming for the Earth?”“Nothing is certain. Now is the time to take care of the enemy in front of you.”

You were right, but Park Hyunsoo couldn't shake his uneasiness.

However, there was nothing I could not investigate from now on, and there was nothing I knew.

As Mare said, it's time to focus on the enemy in front of you.

Determining the cause of the disappearance is the next step.

‘If the mass disappearance was someone’s hand in the first place, there must be a reason why they left it alone.’

Unless there is a hint, nothing will happen for a while.

And it doesn't matter if it happens.

no matter what enemy comes.

Park Hyunsoo's eyes fell silently.

Mare swallowed dry saliva inside the sudden change of atmosphere.

‘The Park Hyunsoo I know doesn’t exist anymore.’

It wasn't that there were no similarities to the previous one, but Marais was sure it was acting.

The sloppy, emotional days of Park Hyunsoo are no more.

I don't know what kind of face he is hiding behind the scenes, but if the day comes when he will reveal his face.

‘Chungyeong, are you watching? Your disciple has grown to this extent.’

Although the direction of her growth was not confirmed, Marais was sure and confident, and she confirmed once again that her thoughts were not wrong.

'I'm so glad I chose you.'

As Mare rejoiced inside her, Monami leapt and landed on Park Hyunsoo's shoulder.

“Wow.”

She then cried a little and she licked his cheek.

She seemed to comfort her that she was okay.

Park Hyunsoo smiled slightly at the warmth she felt on her cheeks and gently scratched her Monami's chin.

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

It feels good, so it's cocked on her shoulder.

Park Hyunsoo looked at Monami rubbing her face on her neck and then turned to Mare again.

“Leave the matter of the great disappearance aside, I want to hear from you as well what happened on Earth.”

“Didn’t the association listen to everything?”

“You know something more.”

The information power of New World has developed rapidly over the past two years, and it is enough to know in real time what is happening around the globe.

However, it was not easy to find out information about the military force.

In particular, she said, the King's residence is still being traced, but no trace has been found.

However, it was because they could not set foot in the realm of transcendence.

King is clearly a transcendent.

Non-transcendental people were not allowed to discover their locations or even traces unless the Transcendental allowed them.

So Mare had no choice but to know.

“I think you would be really disappointed if you didn’t know.”

At Park Hyunsoo's cold tone, Mare shook her head as if she had lost.

“I didn’t mean to hide it, but I can’t hide it even if I try to pretend I don’t know.”

“Because I didn’t play and eat in a distant universe.”

“It must be the first time in 40 years that you have reached that level.”

“The Master is here.”

“I forgot him.”

“Stop the funny lies. If you try to test me again, I won't let you pass."

Mare could never have forgotten Chungyeong.

Intentionally, she wondered if Chungyeong's existence remained in the present Park Hyunsoo.

It was very unpleasant.

“I’m sorry. I thought you needed to understand a little bit more of a human being.”

“You just need to help me.”

Mare felt a chill at her cold voice.

She raised her voice as if Monami was doing it again, but this time she didn't respond.

“… … As you said, I know where the military is.”

“Where is it?”

“Even if you tell me, I can’t find it.”

“Why?”

“Park Hyunsoo, there is something you should know.”

Mare took a breath and passed on information she had learned over two years to Park Hyunsoo.

"King resurrected his 'real' comrades that he had hidden until now."

“A real colleague?”

"I do not know either. Because I didn't see them when I was Aris. It must have been the one he hid.”

The king, who had not experienced a crisis so far, did not take out the hand he had hidden so far.

He didn't feel the need to.

However, with the appearance of Park Hyunsoo, all the plans so far have failed.

The military took a serious blow, and the novelist who looked after him could not escape the annihilation.

From the King's point of view, he was in a corner.

The restrictions are not over and it is impossible to step out.

“Originally, there would have been no intention of resurrecting them.”

“You mean you were pushed to the limit and forced to wake up your real colleagues?”

“I understand it that way.”

Park Hyunsoo crossed his arms and fell in thought.

To be King's true comrade meant that he was of the same rank.

It's not that he's not a subordinate, so would his strength be comparable to that of a king?

If so, it's a total mess.

With four mature Transcendents, the Earth could not avoid destruction.

And the existence of the 'Queen' remained like a thorn hung around the neck.

In the memories of Aris of the past that Mare showed, Queen's appearance was at the level of stepping into the realm of transcendence looking back now.

There are a total of five transcendents in the army.

It cannot simply be called a space pirate.

As if noticing Park Hyunsoo's thoughts, Mare opened her mouth.

“It won’t be on the same level as the King.”

“How can you tell?”

“King woke them up in a cornered state. What this means is not that complicated.”

“Are you saying that I woke up before the time?”

"right. And let's think a little deeper. Why did they have to go to bed?”

“… … Did you lose a lot of power?”

“It’s just a guess, but the circumstances can only explain it that way.”

King's companions lost their power for some reason and fell asleep, but as King was cornered, he was forced to wake up with less recovery.

It was a plausible inference.

“How do I approach them?”

"none."

“No?”

“Their realm is completely cut off from the world. A structure that can only be opened from within.”

“What breaks?”

“I haven’t tried it, but it will probably be difficult.”

Mare is probably right.

If he had Carbon, he would have tried it, but he still has a few months left before he comes back.

It was safe to say that there was nothing he could do now.

He still has a little less than half a year left for the military constraint to be lifted anyway.

The king won't move until then.

“I can focus on Monster Wave.”

“Monster Wave?”

Mare tilted her head.

She explained to him that she was a monster wave.

Mare swallowed a smirk.

It was because I never imagined that Park Hyunsoo would do such a thing.

No, he might be able to do such a cruel thing because he is Park Hyunsoo now.

“You’ve become very toxic.”

“It’s poisoned.”

Park Hyunsoo helped himself by stroking Monami's cheeks.

“If you have nothing more to say, stop.”“Don’t be eaten by yourself.”

Mare left those words and disappeared.

Park Hyunsoo put his monami down, laid his brother on the bed, and sat down on the floor.

Monami climbed up on her lap, curled her body between her crotch and laid herself down.

She gently stroked her soft back, and she slowly closed her eyes.

‘You’re back.’

It was only now that she realized she had returned home.

* * *

The bloody magic sword split the air.

The swarms of monsters that came like a tidal wave were pushed aside as if Moses parted the Red Sea.

Isaac threw himself into it.

His red cloak fluttered, and his mouth was wide enough to reveal the innumerable mouths that hung all over the armor.

- Wow!

- Kiyoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooing

Each of the surviving monsters screamed and rushed to Isaac.

A blood-red beam shot out from the gaping mouth without mercy.

[Kihehehehehe! Destruction, Destruction, Destruction!!]

The demon sword opened its disgusting eyes and shouted destruction like a scream.

Isaac didn't want to hear it, but he wasn't the kind of guy who heard that the magic sword was dry.

All the mouths of the armor were closed.

He looked around.

Dozens of rays of light annihilated hundreds of monsters without leaving a single one.

[Very good, very good Isaac!]

"Shut up."

Saying that, Isaac raised his magic sword.

As purple blood vessels that started from the eyes wrapped around the entire blade, blood was drawn from the corpses of the monsters and gathered into the demon sword.

When the demon sword consumed the blood of hundreds of monsters, he moaned in an ecstatic voice.

[Huh... … . This is so unbearably good!]

“Crazy.”

I said so.

Isaac himself was a little agitated by the enormous force that pierced his veins.

He did this every day for two years, but there was only the initial reluctance, and he didn't feel tired at all.

Rather, it resembled a sensation that stimulates the erogenous zone, and it was almost like an addiction.

He is overcoming his addiction with a single thought of revenge on King.

If an ordinary person had a demon sword, he would have become a slave to the demon sword.

That was the reason Isaac could be a singularity.

He completely absorbed all the blood and lowered his sword.

The demon sword continued to let out an eerie moan as if he was still unconscious.

“As of today, this is the end.”

If so, if another portal appears here, it will become heaven and earth again.

Isaac turned around without hesitation.

Then, not far away, he felt the presence of a person.

This is an uninhabitable area, and there should be no such thing as a popular place.

He immediately flew to where he felt the popularity.

“A real person?”

A black man in rags was lying on the floor.

Have you ever been attacked by a monster?

He lay down on his back and checked his condition.

He didn't appear to have been hurt or not.

He looked ill in health, but that was all.

It was when Isaac felt strange.

The black man's eyes widened, and his hand gripped Isaac's face.

“Eat the world!”

A black jewel appeared on the black man's forehead.

Darkness began to cover the surroundings.
