Have a Meal Before You Go

Chulho glances down at the beads on Kal Rampage.

“May I ask why you have the heart to tell me? ”

[.......]

Kal Rampage is silent and mutters quietly.

[You seem different from other humans.]

“I see.”

The dining room was a festive atmosphere.

Ignis' roasted pork belly was a popular explosion because it was really tasty.

Echo, Khan, and Tangerine started eating pork belly excitedly. It's the pork belly of King Finn, so it'll taste good.

Here you go.

It must be hard to have a proper conversation here.

“Everyone's eating. ”

Chulho talks to them and leaves the restaurant.

* * *

The seventh apostle of the Seven Thousand Worlds.

That was the location of Kalampage.

The lowest level of the Seven Thousand Worlds is the first sky.

Kal Rampage ruled the first sky and ruled man.

“I wonder what it means to be in charge. ”

[For humans, it was a kind of god.]

“....... ”

Then I understand.

[I showed up in human dreams, prophesied, and helped with technology. It also appeared directly in their world and allowed them to have many resurgences.]

Chulho closed his eyes slightly.

The king of the world of the ancient civilization, who appeared on the continent of Espan. He gave new power to the weak humans at the time, and since then, mankind has grown rapidly to dominate the continent of Espan.

In addition.

I appeared in Keticum and handed over the furniture to the prince of Keticum.

Cheolho nods.

“I understand.”

[The second sky is the world of all the dead.]

Kal Rampage said:

[The third heaven is the heaven of all species. In addition, the fourth heaven is....... the sky of the class. Every class in the world is a framed world. Divide the world into layers.]

Cheolho was slightly surprised. I quietly close my eyes and ask.

“In white space, countless frames of class. Is that it?”

[Yes.]

Kal Rampage spoke slowly.

[I did not know the information after the fifth floor. Because of the apostles of the Seven Thousand World, I was the weakest.]

“....... ”

Chulho thought of something. And I asked slowly.

“You said you plotted treason. Why?"

[At the top of the Seven Thousand Worlds, it was because they presented an unintelligible plan.]

“Plans you don't understand? ”

[They wanted to return the five dimensions to their origins. Back to the beginning, every civilization wanted to return to zero and grow back for a long, long time.]

It's getting better and better.

Chulho didn't sweep, he waited.

[....... we choose a new apostle to give us over a thousand years. Kings of every dimension are elected by our judges as the next apostle. Kings will overcome various trials and hardships and become new apostles. Once the next apostle is elected, the existing apostles withdraw from their positions. I return to my body before I became an apostle, and I end my life after a certain life.]

That's what the king meant.

Chulho narrowed his eyes.

[However, the three apostles at the top rejected it. They wanted their world to last forever.]

In that case.

The five-dimensional kings got into fights because of their intentions.

For self-destruction?

[I, and the four apostles downstairs, have declined the offer of such an upper class.]

“....... ”

[And me and your apostles became sealed bodies by the three apostles. That's a story a thousand years ago. The apostles of the upper order sought to join five dimensions into one war.]

Kal Rampage's voice is dull.

He speaks gracefully, but somehow his voice is magical. Chulho continues to wait for the horse, as if he were possessed by something.

[Fortunately, I created and sent my body to the ground just before they were sealed. My goal is to restore power with the only jar of desire I had.]

“....... to challenge the upper floors of the Seven Heavens again. ”

[Yes.]

Chulho looked up at the sky.

[I, for the first time, made my way to the continent of Espan, empowering the barbarians of our time. Because I was human, too, and I wanted to strengthen them and fight together.]

The night sky was spotless. Right now, Cheolho was sitting on the roof of the rice restaurant.

Inside, you hear a wacky sound inside the rice restaurant. Suddenly, my heart is heavy, and I sigh for a short time.

[But the humans in power quickly changed. They deteriorated, and the power began to be abused. I was greatly disappointed. So, I headed to the horse system. He also informed the horses that a five-dimensional battle was to take place.]

Chulho recalls the Sword of Covenant.

The sword of the covenant, which had been sleeping in the central temple of the Horsemen, was sealed with the chieftains of the old Eight Horsemen.

They said it was sealed with the Demon King, and that one day the time will come for the Five Dimensions to rise up and fight alongside the Demon King of the Age.

[I knew what the high priests were doing was going to happen. Therefore, I decided to use the war.]

“I see.”

[It's because we decided that the strongest will emerge and that absorbing their power will make them stronger faster.] For a long time, I sealed myself in the sword with the power absorbed from the Magic System. It was to prevent the apostles from discovering me, and to grow because the incomplete body did not fully accept those forces. Yeah, it was hibernation.]

Cheolho lightly nodded his head.

[By the time I woke up from hibernation, I knew the five-dimensional war would begin. But when I woke up, everything changed.]

Changed?

[Right..... since you moved at your own pace.]

“....... ”

Chulho blinked and asked.

“After I showed up? ”

[Yes.]

Kal Rampage recites in a slightly grim voice.

[You are the fastest growing and overpowering king who owns first class. But I didn't wield the power. Ironically, I chose to live in harmony.]

Kal Rampage hisses.

[Yes, you stopped the five-dimensional war.]

Chulho asked me a question.

“Why, did I grow so fast? ”

[That…… I don't know yet either. Your growth is abnormal. That question cannot be solved so far. I ask the same thing.]

“Bite it.”

[Why didn't you fight? The humans I've seen so far have used their power to fight. No one was there. In a strong force, there was inevitably a war. The one with power grows arrogant and forgets the past. Forget gratitude, and the greed becomes even bigger. I was deeply disappointed in those humans. But you're not.]

He mutters in a strange voice.

Why?

Chulho stares at Kal Rampage.

“I……"

Why?

I was just tired.

“He was just a man who didn't want to fight. ”

[.......]

“Is that the answer? ”

[Somewhat.]

Cheolho nods.

“Well, back to business. Then the apostles will find me. ”

[Most likely. Maybe they already have.]

“Are you trying to summon me to the Seven Thousand Realms? ”

[If I find it, I will.]

“Time?”

[Unknown. The existence of the upper class is unknown to me, too.]

“....... ”

Cheolho stares blankly into the air and clears his mind.

Kal Rampage had lived for a very long time, and he seemed hesitant to bring up the current story.

[Do you think my methods are wrong?]

Do you think it's wrong?

Killed countless people to restore power, and each dimension suffered the pain of war.

Chulho looked at him. You open your mouth slowly to him who's in the marble.

“I don't know.”

[....... what?]

“Think about that for yourself. ”

What if Chulho were to put himself in that situation?

What choices will you make?

It was unknown. Honestly, even Cheolho couldn't guarantee it.

I suddenly asked him, the philosopher who woke up from his seat.

“I hear you're sealed. Why not? ”

[The apostle cannot kill the apostle. Because, my body does not die.]

“If so?”

[The apostles of the upper level, the reason why the apostles of the lower four levels are sealed is that they cannot be killed....... first, because each floor must be there to return with their excuse.]

Cheolho came to mind.

The work of the Spirit King.

“Like, four spirit kings of the Spirit Realm. ”

[Yes.]

Questions, then.

“How was the Seven Thousand Worlds made? ”

[We don't know that either.]

His story gives him a lot of information, but he also doesn't know too much.

“That's hard.”

Cheolho mutters and kicks his tongue.

But it was helpful enough.

The contours of the Seven Thousand Worlds that were covered in veils were drawn.

The feeling of approaching the truth of a world no one knows, it doesn't feel that bad.

But sometimes it's better to live without knowing.

[Helpful.]

“Enough.”

Chulho nods. Then I opened the subspace.

“Hello, Steelho! ”

“Yes, Qasim. ”

Chulho gives Karl Rampage's marbles to Qasim.

“This?”

“Find something that's the right size to replace your body. ”

“Ah, ha, but this is……"

This is the first Demon King Kalampage. He stroked Kasim's head, wanting to shout.

“It's okay.”

“Yes, yes.......”

Qasim disappears back into subspace.

Steel lay flat on the roof. I wanted a drink.

“What are you doing? ”

Suddenly, Echo came out and asked me to the roof.

“Oh, stargazing. ”

“Do you want some coffee? ”

“There you go.”

“How about a drink?”

“I'm sure that's okay. ”

As Cheolho answers, Echo leaps up to the roof. In one hand was a fairly expensive liquor.

“Rex said it was imported from the continent of Espan this time. What did she say....... A woman who looks so rich asked me to give it to her. ”

A woman with a lot of money?

Chulho laughed at that.

Probably Cora Fox, the largest merchant merchant on the continent.

Let's see.......

I looked at the label and it said,

[Lamine Cantarose]

“Nice drink. ”

Chulho picked up a bottle and drank. The aroma of flowers and sweetness that permeated my whole body floated in my mouth. It was like drinking concentrated flowers.

“Where, me too. ”

Echo picks up the bottle and chokes.

“Well, what is this? ”

“Lamine Cantarose. ”

“What kind of drink is that? ”

I drank again as if Echo was delicious.

Cheolho smiled and replied.

“The most expensive drink in the world. ”

It is one of the ten bottles of rum that Laminet, known as the legendary amphitheater in the continent of Espan, has made in its lifetime. Lamine Cantarose. Chulho had had had his first drink. This is the last drink he ever made.

I'm just thankful to Cora Fox for getting me a drop of imperial tea I never would have had.

“....... ”

Suddenly Echo drops the bottle without saying anything. There's only a little alcohol left.

“Well, how much is it? ”

“Maybe three or four in the territory. ”

Hiccup!

Echo hiccupped. I carefully handed the bottle to Cheolho. Cheolho picked up the bottle.

Hiccup!

“Car, it's a secret to Khan. ”

At Echo's words, Chulho chuckles.
