The Birth of the 9th Circle Wizard

When I entered the library, I caught my eye on an endlessly spread out bookshelf and bookshelves.

Seeing this, Jihee Han realized that this was no ordinary library.

The largest library in the world was no different than a studio room.

"welcome."

Libert the librarian and a man younger than him were standing next to him.

Soon-won could tell that he was the master of this place and one of the 12 Transcendents, Kunlun.

"Hello. Ambassador Kunlun. My name is Jung Soon-won.”

At Soon-won's kind greeting, Ambassador Kunlun smiled.

“How did you recognize me at a glance?”

“Yes, I don’t know why, but I could recognize it at a glance.”

Master Kunlun gestured as if to sit down.

A table and a chair appeared where there was nothing.

“You must have a lot of questions. right?”

"Yes."

Soon-won looked at River.

It was because before the last parting, he had agreed to talk about the existence of the nobleman when he met again.

“E-35 The beings that appear on Earth and threaten humanity are not demons.”

“Yes, I heard that from River.” In fact, calling them demons is just a title given to them by humans.

They never called themselves demons.

“A being who casts a curse upon death. They are angels, not demons.”

Soon-won doubted his ears for a moment.

"Yes? Am I right now?”

“Yes, again, they are angels, not demons.”

“An angel, is that the angel I know?”

"•••Yes."

“Then why are those angels attacking mankind?”

When Ambassador Kunlun waved his hand, coffee and red

Tea and various cakes appeared.

suggested to eat, but Soon-won shook his head.

I wanted to hear the answer first.

"that… .”

Ambassador Kunlun talked intently, but he couldn't understand a word.

Soon-won looked at Han Ji-hee,

She nodded her head.

“I don’t understand.”

“I will. Mortals cannot be free from the rules of causality.”

mortal.

It meant someone who would one day die.

The opposite concept was immortality or immortality.

“How can I know all the truth?”

“Get into the ninth circle.”

I've only reached the level of the 7th circle now.

The 8th circle is the level I couldn't reach even before the return.

The Ninth Circle has never appeared in human history.

It was called the land of dreams.

“Is Kunlun a god by any chance?”

"no. I too was once a human. It is only that he attained enlightenment and was liberated and became a god-zen. We call ourselves the Transcendent.”

“How to attain enlightenment or liberation… .”

Soon-won bit his mouth.

If we could attain enlightenment and liberation just by asking such a question and hearing the answer, the whole world had to become a transcendent.

“In the E-27 district where I lived, there is a place called Moorim. There I practiced endlessly throughout my life.

I was able to liberate myself.”The earth where Soon-won lived was E-35, so the place where Master Kunlun lived was in a different dimension.

“The 51 dimensions are tied together. We transcendents lived different lives on different planets and attained enlightenment and became transcendental. One of them, Soon-won, majored in magic, just like you.”

In other words, he reached the ninth circle.

“Somewhere beyond the gate there was another world, and it was one of the other 50 dimensions.”

“Yes, you realize that I cannot tell you first. That’s how you get to know each other.”

Soon-won asked what he was most curious about.

“I thought the status bar magic system was made by a woman named Catherine, but she wasn’t. I was injected with information by someone through the medium of a dream. Was it the Kunlun Daishi who told you about it?”

“Not me. It was made by one of the other Transcendents.”

“Why? Why am I the only one on step 2?

did it happen? Could I ever see him?”

Ambassador Kunlun shook his head.

“It is impossible. In time, all your doubts will be answered.”

“Then I will ask you one more question. Is there any reason why Ambassador Kunlun does not directly remove the angels?”

“This is outer space. If I enter my universe, I am also not free from the law of causality. I don't have enough strength to get rid of them.”

Ambassador Kunlun added immediately.

“Just because we are, doesn’t mean we are watching. We, too, are putting a lot of effort into preventing the dimensional collapse. One of them is Soon-won. Did you bring the key to the abyss?”

“If the key to the abyss… .”

“It’s what you get by killing the 4th-class cast angel. The way they call themselves angels to deceive them is probably using the title duke.”

"Ah! There was definitely something like that.”

Duke Karl who followed Professor Oh In-ha

It was the key obtained by killing Hari.

I looked inside and found the key.

“The Transcendentalists call it the key to 100 million years.”

“The key to 100 million years?”

“Yes, put the key in the button here, turn it, and press the red button to go to the training ground. There is nothing there except food and weapons, and toilets and bedrooms.”

explanation followed.

After setting the desired time, press the button to move to the training ground alone.

No matter how much time you spend there, it is only a moment in the present time.

Even after 10 years, it's only one minute here.

Even after 100 years, it is only one minute here.

It can be up to 100 million years.

Still, a minute passed here.

“… It would be nice to practice.”

“Yes, it was made for that purpose. But because of the law of causality, it’s not just the advantages.”

"Excuse me?"

“The maximum time a person can live is 100 million years. spend 100 million years

When you come to high school, you can bring your memories and abilities that you trained there by 100 times. But 10 million years later, it will be 10 times. After a million years, you will be able to fully take on the achievements made there.”

On the other hand, if you wait 100,000 years, you can get only 10% of the results.

If it is less than a thousand years, only 1% can be brought.

He would leave 99% of the memories he realized after suffering to death there.

“If you practice for a hundred years, you can only bring 1% results, right?

“Yes, it is.”

“What a terrible thing.”

But it is attractive.

It was the perfect place to practice.

“Can’t we go together?”

“Only one can go in.”

“Is there a limit on the number of times?”

“There is no limit to the number of times, but during the first set time, even if you want to get out, you can’t get better.”

Soon-won closed his eyes and pondered.

This time he clearly felt limited in his fight with the Duke.

Even at this time, it was clear that the peacocks were getting stronger by raising the synchronicity with the human body.

“… I will go in.”

“How long would you like to set the time?”

“For a day or so as a test… .”

“You didn’t understand what I was saying before. If you come after only one day, you will only remember 1% of the memories that were there. It’s just wasting time.”

"i See… .”

Then it was difficult to press the button hastily.

It's been 12 years since we went back 30 years.

12 years was boring.

At 45, she regressed 30 years and lived another 12 years, so her mental age is 57.

‘One hundred years, one thousand years, ten thousand years, one hundred thousand years, one million years, ten million years, one hundred million years.’

I had no idea how long the time was.

Experts say the Paleolithic Age was about 700,000 to 10,000 years ago.

It is not the Joseon Dynasty, it is not the Goryeo period, it is not the Unified Silla or the Three Kingdoms period.

It is only 10,000 years after the Iron Age, Bronze Age, Neolithic Age, and Paleolithic Age.

Homo sapiens appeared 300,000 years ago.

“It’s too dangerous. If you stay too long, your mind will collapse.”

“You don't have to worry about that. I'll give you the spare parts to protect your mind."

Ambassador Kunlun handed over the necklace.

Soon-won accepted it and looked down at it.

“Did you go inside, Master Kunlun?”

“Yes, I have been there for a total of 1 million years over 127 times.”

Memories left behind will continue when you enter them again.

To get all the memories back and go out, you have to spend a million years before coming back.

“Can I go in first?”

Jihee Han said.

Soon-won dried her so her.

“This is not an easy thing to think about.”

"know. But right now, Soon-won will only hold onto your ankles. I don't want you to get hurt because of me anymore."

Soon-won tries to save Han Ji-hee, but Tewoo

I was almost killed by the Duke of S.

She seemed to have it in her mind.

“It’s not your fault. You overwhelm the peacock all the time. He killed Catherine and Lee Hana, so he was killed while trying to protect them.”

At Soon-won's comfort, Han Ji-hee shook her head.

“As a result, I put Soon-won at your risk. I will make sure that never happens again.”

Soon-won is persuaded by his dignified expression and tone of voice.

she gave up doing

“Instead, don’t go too long from the beginning.”

Jihee Han nodded her head.

“How many hours would you like to set?”

“Ten years, please.”

“Hey Jihee!”

Ambassador Kunlun also handed over parts to Han Ji-hee to protect her mind.

“Once you enter, you cannot get better for 10 years. Do you agree?”

“Yes, I agree.”

Master Kunlun puts the key to the abyss on the button

inserted and turned.

Then the red light came on on the button.

“You must press the button yourself.”

Master Kunlun set the dial on the bottom to 10 years.

“Ready.”

Before pressing the button, Jihee Han looked at Soon-won.

She approached Soon-won and gave her a hug. Soon-won hugged her tightly.

"I will be back."

“… Bye."

Jihee Han took a deep breath and pressed the button.her body stiffened.

“This is it.”

Ambassador Kunlun said.

“Is the body still here?”

“Yeah, it’s just mind-blowing.”

Han Ji-hee's body trembled slightly.

“Six seconds for us, Jihee Han,

One year.”

Soon-won clenched his fists at those words.

He had no idea how lonely he would be as he had to spend 10 years alone.

“5”. 4… 3… 2.” One."."

One minute has passed.

Han Ji-hee moved her hand slowly.

"what? Am I here now?”

Han Ji-hee sat down in her seat.

“No, I vaguely remember. I accomplished a lot there, but I can’t remember everything.”

Han Ji-hee cried because she was angry.

“If you fill a million years, you can get all your memories back in full.”

At the words of Ambassador Kunlun, Han Ji-hee stood up from her seat.

“I want to go back in.”

“How much?”

“100 years.”

“Hey Jihee!”

Soon-won was startled and stopped her.

There was poison in her eyes.

“Sorry, I’ll be back soon.”

Jihee Han hastily pressed her button.

It goes into 100 years.

“ Soon-won-kun. Are you going to stand there still? Soon-won can also enter

all. It’s not the same space.”

Ambassador Kunlun looked at Soon-won.

He too came and stood in front of the button.

“I will do it for 100 years too.”

“You go. The dial is set to 100 years, you just press it.”

Soon-won looked at Ji-hee.

30 seconds have already passed.

Five years have passed for Ji-hee.

“Whoa… .”

Soon-won took a deep breath and pressed the button.

Click!

Instantly, the body came up to respond.

It felt like my body was still there, but my soul was floating in the sky.

I immediately wanted to be sucked into some place, and when I opened my eyes, I was standing in a pure white space.

There was a bed, a toilet, and a jar.

When I looked inside the jar, there was a byeokgokdan.

It was dry food, rich in nutritional value, but lacking in taste.

"Damn it."

I looked around.

In the endless white space, there was nothing to be seen except the bed, the toilet, and the jar.

In the middle of it, Soon-won was standing there.

I felt like I was losing my mind.

I have already made up my mind to go back to the library.

“You want to spend 100 years here?”
