The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 267

Whoa… Haa…

I took in and let out my breath as hard as I could.

But as if that wasn’t enough, my frantically beating heart wanted more and more oxygen.

“Damn… I feel like my whole body is being crushed.”

Alec Traman muttered, massaging his shoulders.

[I’m sorry. It seems my power is making your body sick.]

Durga, the watcher of the sun and the moon, spoke in a low voice to the pale-faced man.

“Don’t say that. “Because of you, we were able to protect the city.”

Alec put down his sword for a moment.

The arm that was holding the sword, full of tension, finally began to tremble.

“…thank you.”

Even when the dead were resurrected, Alec had no idea how to stop so many enemies.

This was because there were not enough people to fight compared to the number of enemies.

A battlefield I entered with the readiness to give up my life.

But at that moment, surprisingly, Durga appeared in front of him.

Although I was selected as his revealer, this was my first time seeing him in person.

But even that wasn’t enough, he fought alongside his status.

It may be out of place in this situation, but for the first time, Alec felt the honor of being a Revelator.

“Because you did not abandon humans.”

Durga smiled slightly at Alec’s words.

[….]

When was the last time you smiled?

Durga had a strange feeling at the thought that maybe there would never be one.

[Yor… I understand why you loved humans.]

The Aspects simply gave revelations.

I thought it was a matter of protecting his dignity as a god. However, although it was only a moment, he felt a joy he had never felt before in this moment with humans.

It was alive.

“Look at them. Even though the situation is terrible… they will never forget you.”

Due to the attack of the dead, the city was in ruins and many people died, but there were definitely survivors.

They were cheering for Alec now. Alec also responded to them by nodding.

Surprisingly, the place where he was sitting now was at the top of a mountain where numerous corpses were piled up one on top of the other.

[It is said that he has the power of the Aspect, but for a human, he is quite good.]

And there was a person lying on another mountain of corpses that was as high as the mountain of corpses that Alec had created.

[It must be a little unfair. It looks like he has enough qualities to aim for the top spot. After all, the opponent is a monster. Isn’t it?]

It was Carlos.

Like a devil, he was rolling around and playing on the mountain of horrible corpses.

“It’s meaningless to judge superiority or inferiority now. Moreover, it was because of such a monster that we were able to survive until now.”

[Well.]

“And now we, who almost became enemies, are fighting together like this. “What you did in our world is unforgivable, but…”

Alec looked at Carlos.

“It would be meaningless to even discuss such things now.”

[I was sorry. I had no choice but to use you guys to survive. But I promise. Demons will no longer be involved in the human world.]

The mountain of corpses Carlos was stepping on was also mixed with demons.

As it was a fierce battle, there were many deaths of demons. It would be ridiculous to call it an apology for what happened before, but the demons fought with all their might as if this was their world.

“Don’t worry. “If he thinks nonsense, I won’t stay silent.”

Next to Carlos was the dwarf Thorn.

Heavily armed with thick armor, he destroyed numerous undead with a huge hammer.

“What do you think? “That was a long time later anyway.”

“hmm?”

“Even if boundaries are established in the future, we are all together now.”

Alec continued speaking, brushing back his sweat-soaked hair.

“At least for this moment, it seems pointless to distinguish between one another.”

colleague.

It may be an embarrassing word, but it seemed like there was no word that could clearly explain their relationship right now.

“I’m glad I survived.”

“It’s not over yet. “You must not lose your mind.”

“For sure… another monster could attack this world.”

Alec slowly stood up.

“But the result will be the same.”

There was hope in his eyes.

“Only one will return.”

* * *

[…How dare you!!]

Sang Sang shouted at Namgung, who was standing on top of him.

Phew~!!!

But Namgung ignored his cries and stabbed his sword.

[Kaaaaaaah!!!]

With a scream from Sang Sang, the sword blade that Namgung thrust into his body Pakang! It broke with a sound.

“….”

Namgung looked at the blade that had turned into powder and threw the remaining handle back.

“As expected… Rin’s chain certainly has the power to shock you, but Rin is also a piece that has fallen from its original phase. “The essence is the same?”

Lin’s power alone was enough to cause damage to the phase, but it was impossible to definitively kill him.

“It looks like it won’t be easy…”

Namgung clicked his tongue as if he was disappointed and pulled out another sword stuck in Sang Sang’s body.

[Try no matter how hard you try. Do you really think I will be destroyed by that kind of power…!! Your body, which has a finite life, will slowly die, but I will exist forever.]

“Well. “If you don’t die easily, I don’t plan on making it easy for you either.”

Phew~!!!

Namgung’s sword cut Sang Sang’s side.

When the flesh was cut away, black bones that appeared to be ribs were visible.

[Kaaaa!!!]

Leoric’s sword struck the Aspect’s bones.

bang-! bang-! bang-!!!

As if chopping down a tree with an axe, each time Leoric’s sword was struck, the Aspect’s bones began to crack little by little.

[You’re doing something useless…!! To me, the body is just a shell. Do you think such an attack will work on me?]

“We don’t think you’ll die from this either.”

Kwasik-!!!

When Sang Sang’s ribs broke, a gap appeared.

Namgung jumped into the guy’s body without hesitation.

“dad!!”

So-min was startled by the sight and shouted, but he had already entered Sang-sang’s body.

[You can’t do this.]

“Let go of this!! My father doesn’t know because I don’t have magical power. It’s a terrible chaos inside…! “Magic and spiritual power are tangled and swirling!”

Somin shouted at Yor, who was blocking her.

[I wonder if that guy doesn’t even know that. It’s just that he doesn’t have magical power, but he has mastered the art of blood vessels. He can sense magical power no less than you.]

Somin turned his head at the unfamiliar voice.

[Weren’t you mistaken back then? [There must have been a moment when I was asked if I had mastered magic.]

It was an unknown soul.

[Rather, they thought we wouldn’t be able to hold out. He separated us before entering the Aspect’s body.]

There were two more souls behind him.

It belonged to Lathea and Natas.

[Honestly, I wouldn’t dare go into that horrible place… but I can’t help but feel a little proud. Because I, the devil lord, was scared.]

[What’s so great about the devil? After all, he died.]

[Ugh…]

Natas cleared her throat as if she was embarrassed by Lathea’s words.

[Don’t worry too much. Because Leoric went with us. He is a special soul. I will protect Namgung even in the waves of phase.]

[Yes. Because his father would never let him die.]

“But…”

Somin looked at Sang Sang with trembling eyes, as if he was still anxious.

“Then what about Uncle Leoric?”

[…What?]

Latea looked embarrassed by her unexpected question.

They were dead anyway.

Therefore, I did not think of death as a big deal.

However, the girl in front of her saw even herself, the spirit body, as a single life.

[Thank you.]

Latea smiled lowly and lightly stroked Somin’s head.

[I will protect you just as my father protected him.]

* * *

‘It feels like I’m in the sea…’

The feeling of floating surrounding my body, the heavy pressure, and the pitch-black darkness were enough to instill fear.

[Still reckless… What would you have done if it weren’t for me?]

Black armor was wrapped around Namgung’s body as he passed through Sang Sang’s body as if swimming.

[What you are dealing with now is not just a status. Unlike the Eight Aspects, the Full Aspect is a being that can create dimensions.]

It was Leoric’s armor.

[That means holding dimensional power within your body. If you’re not careful, you could get lost in the numerous dimensions within the body before finding the core of the phase.]

‘This guy is not a complete phase. Because the last piece, Rin, is missing.’

[Even if it is aimed at making the status unstable, this is too dangerous. The dimensional power of the phase expands endlessly, and as a result, the dimension continues to become vast. Dimension nourishes everything. Even my armor… I don’t know how much longer I can endure.]

As Leoric said, the armor surrounding Namgoong’s body was corroding little by little.

[How are we going to find its core in this big place?]

Sigh…!!

At that moment, Namgung raised his palm.

Then the chain surrounding his wrist wound into a spiral shape, and a small sphere wavered at the end.

‘As you said, just because Rin isn’t in Sanggyang, it doesn’t mean he can’t be considered incomplete. I’m not aiming for imperfection. Quite the contrary.’

[Opposite…?]

‘Do you remember that when you aimed at the core of the phase with Rin’s power earlier, the sword actually broke?’

[of course. That’s why you did such a reckless thing.]

‘In the end, this means that Lin is also a piece of intact status like Ran and Wu. They instinctively attract themselves.’

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh….

And as if to prove his words, Lin’s soul began to flow somewhere in the deep darkness like the deep sea.

‘Where Rin leads, he will be there.’

[Now wait a minute… Isn’t this too dangerous as is? What that means is that Rin’s soul and the core of his phase meet. Conversely, what if the phase eats Lin’s soul?]

Leoric asked back, seemingly embarrassed by Namgung’s words.

[An even more terrible monster may be born.]

‘Sometimes there are moments when you have to take an adventure.’

[This isn’t at the adventure level…]

‘Isn’t it there?’

At that moment, before Leoric could finish sighing, a red vortex appeared in front of Lin’s soul.

[…Are you confident?]

Leoric asked in a nervous voice.

Slurp –

Instead of answering, Namgung strengthened the hand holding the sword.
