Learn Martial Arts

“... uh...”

Like a voice that suddenly changed, attitudes also changed. It contained an arch, not a chirp. Questioning is a nightmare decision, not a sewing doll. The Necromancer Monarch who ruled death.

Baek Hyun's panic was not due to his perception of him. It was only because she felt that the question she was asking was so unreasonable.

[Answer.]

[You promised.]

[Are you the apostle of chaos? Or is he the Throne of Abyss?]

Once again, Baek Hyun blinks and shakes his head.

“... wait. ”

It was not that she did not understand her own question.

“Why is that going on? ”

It was you that Baek Hyun didn't understand. Why is the nightmare maker speculating like that? If the reason for reaching such a speculation was related to the deeds of Whitehorse, it was so poor in Whitehorse's view.

“What makes you think that? ”

[Do you want proof?]

“No, I'm not asking. And the evidence? ”

[It's just severe.]

The Nightmare Decision Maker shakes the arm of a stitched doll.

[When the recent chaos erupted, you were all involved. And unlike all humans, you are. I have enough power without a contract.]

“Other kids besides me have this power. Do you know Sarah?”

[I know. That's why I'm asking you if it's not the throne of Abyss. If you are the Throne of Abyss and the girl is an apostle subordinate to you, it will lead smoothly. Or you're both apostles.]

“Just a coincidence? ”

[If coincidence repeats, it's inevitable, isn't it? It overlaps with the time you became a botanical human being and the time Abyss appeared in this world. Look at you. You've been entangled since Abyss first appeared in this world.]

It's a coincidence after all.

Baek Hyun looks at the nightmare maker with a trembling face. But as she said, if coincidence is repeated to this extent, it is inevitable.

It was unfair to Baek Hyun, the sole party. When Abyss appeared, he was obsessed with learning martial arts by being beaten and dying in a monastery, and when he saw that he had killed an armed man, the armed man walked into a fight first. Horn? If Seo Min-sik, a friend, were not involved, he would not have gone there. Killing Cheonzon was also the reason why he had been the best in the Horn.

“I wish I could get that wrong, but I'm human. Not the apostle of chaos, not the throne of Abyss. And even if I were one of them, what do the actions I've done so far have to do with them? ”

[Doesn't matter.]

The nightmare maker said without bending his attitude.

[From the throne of Abyss, the monarchs in Abyss are nothing more than invaders who covet the source of chaos. Will he be generous enough to forgive an invader who has woken up from a long sleep? Neither is the apostle of chaos.]

“What the hell is that? ”

[It follows chaos. Don't you know what an apostle is? There's nothing different about them. The Apostle of Chaos is subordinate to the throne of Abyss. Or even if you're not subordinate. If you were the Apostle of Chaos, killing an armed man would be a triumph to shake the whole chaos of Abyss. Why did you choose the armor...]

“That son of a bitch started screaming. ”

[...] The spirit will be the weakest.]

“I said no, but you keep crying. ”

[I'm not crying just because it's severe. Actually, I only had a bad feeling until I got here, but I really wanted to see you.]

“Why?”

I didn't do anything. When Baek Hyun asks, the nightmare maker takes a small breath.

[I feel chaos in you.]

[Weak but... in you. I can feel it for sure.]

[Other monarchs may not feel it, but I'm different. There will be no monarch who understands death and soul as deeply as I do among the monarchs of Abyss. I can see it now. In your soul, there is a weak but definite chaos.]

Baek Hyun stares at the nightmare maker without saying anything.

After listening to her, there was something to be said.

Light.

In Horn's Underground, trapped in a shield, wandering through the darkness. When it fell into chaos with a natural attack. The light that illuminated the darkness and led the way. Through that guidance, Baek Hyun was able to escape the darkness and reach the monastery.

Tushin said there was something strange inside of Baek Hyun.

Baek Hyun faced the light for a while, but talked to him. I didn't hear what he was saying. Just listening to his voice tore the existence apart.

Even when I left the monastery, I saw the light. At that time, I didn't hear a voice.

‘After the battle against the armed forces. ’

That someone is watching me.

“... I am not the throne of Abyss. This is for sure.”

[There's something straightening up.]

“I thought maybe I was an apostle of chaos. ”

[Are you saying there's no awareness?]

The nightmare maker quickly asked.

[So, are you really you? Your presence is already swallowed up by chaos, isn't it?]

“It went too far. I'm me. I've always been. It was my will to kill the spirit, and then...”

The words were blocked for a moment. In the Horn, where the light was proactive. If the light had not opened the way, it would not have escaped into the darkness. Even when it fell into chaos, it was the light that led Baek Hyun to the monastery. Consequently, Baek Hyun became stronger through his performance in the monastery and was able to kill the Shenzhen.

“... it was my will. ”

But Baek Hyun didn't deny it. It was Baek Hyun who wished to perform his duties in the monastery. Killing Cheonzon was also Baek Hyun's will. The decision maker of the nightmare heard Baek Hyun's answer and said nothing. She just stared at Baek Hyun with her little sewing doll's eyes.

“I have a question. ”

[What is it?]

“If I am the Throne of Abyss or the Apostle of Chaos. What were you going to do with me? You're not just here to check, are you? ”

[I didn't care either way.]

The nightmare maker smiled and replied.

[Told you. I'm some kind of monarch. No, he understands death and soul more deeply than any other speed. If you are the Throne of Abyss or the Apostle of Chaos, in some ways it may be the worst case scenario. But not for me.]

“Why?”

[Other rapids will lead to extinction, but not me. Even if my existence is tied to Abyss right now, I can kill myself and escape this world.]

It is because we have not yet abandoned our greed for the source of chaos. Or for some other reason. There will be as many reasons as there are for her. Abyss is a place where many rapids still exist. The Nightmare Decider is the owner of the power to resurrect even the dead quickly, so he may be looking for a way to pay his taxes without any haste.

“So, you think I'm an apostle of chaos? ”

[I said you weren't.]

“It could be a lie. ”

[It could be a lack of awareness. Or, maybe not really. It must be true that there is chaos in you. I didn't feel wrong. But... I think it might be a coincidence that your behavior is not necessarily a coincidence. The chaos you have may be something other than apostolic evidence.]

“Something else?”

[It is also true that we are too weak to think of ourselves as apostles.]

The voice of the decision maker of the nightmare changed back to the voice of the girl.

[I'll keep my promise. I'll give you the Divine through Shanak later. What's there to use? Are you interested in black magic?]

“Nothing.”

[Apart from that, there's too little to give. All you have to do is look like your necklace.]

The sewing doll recognizes Baek Hyun's paranex and says,

[Actually, one of the reasons I don't think I might be an apostle is because of that necklace. It's a mythical artifact that has nothing to do with chaos. It can't exist in Abyss. It can't have the Apostle of Abyss. If you really were an apostle in the first place, you wouldn't even need that necklace's falsehood immortality.]

“If you give me something similar to this, I'll be grateful. ”

[... well. You still have two more things to do with me. Once you talk about it.]

“Do you want to think about it according to your answer? ”

[It's not all the same grade. In fact, I don't have your necklace-grade stuff in my possession. In the end, the new thing is the monarchy.]

“Are you familiar with the other monarchs? Baal or Malbron or something. ”

Baek Hyun was curious and asked that question. I did not expect a big answer, but surprisingly, the sewing doll gave me an answer after seriously pondering.

[I don't know about Malbron, but I know about Baal. I've seen it myself. Assassin Gum Baal is some kind of energy tank. The Blood Lion has been infusing parts of his divinity into Baal for many years. Maybe you don't even know how much strength you have in Baal.]

“The carpago with the Baal is not that strong. ”

[Of course. Baal is the last scroll in the blood, but will the Apostle be able to use his power as he pleases?]

It is sealed so that it cannot be used.

[One of the other two is my personal business as before... and the other one is being asked by someone else.]

“Who?”

[Black Rose Queen.]

An unexpected name came up.

Baek Hyun blinks and looks at the sewing doll. The sewing doll coughed low and said:

[Time flies, but one invitation says it's the same.]

“... did you know he didn't tell you where it was? ”

[Yep. He said he did it on purpose.]

You didn't tell him on purpose? In response, Baek Hyun burst into laughter and asked again.

“Why did he tell you to come if you had to? ”

[I decided to invite him because I didn't think he'd have a chance, but it wasn't a good time at the time.]

I haven't actually met him yet, but I thought he was a dead end. I mean, I wasn't ready and I just told you to come.

“Now you're ready? ”

[That's how it looks. Don't ask me too much. I'm just asking you to tell me.]

“By the way, why are you preaching it through this nightmare maker without coming in person? If you don't have an apostle or a reserve, you can do it through a contracted hunter. ”

[...] There's a reason for that. But this one can swear on my whole life. The Black Rose didn't do that, not by deceiving or ignoring you. It's because I had a situation, and I couldn't.]

The girl's voice changes. Baek Hyun pondered for a moment while listening to the serious voice of the nightmare maker. Given the circumstances and what was revealed, it was a blatant trap. An attempt by the Black Rose to draw Baek Hyun into her sanctuary using the decision of nightmare.

“What is your relationship with the Black Rose Queen? ”

[He's an old friend.]

“Are you being used by the Black Rose Queen? ”

[No.]

“What happened to the Black Rose Queen? ”

[I can't say.]

“Is your silence for the Black Rose Queen? ”

[I can't say.]

“Is it because of your own oath? ”

[...] I can't say.]

Baek Hyun sighed.

“What is the location of Black Rose? ”

[... give me your hand.]

On the back of Baek Hyun's hand, the hand of a sewing doll was covered. Pod! A small light glitters, and the black rose's location is engraved in the white man's head. East of the Pandemonium, the centre of Abyss. It was a direction I had never been before.

“I don't know if I'm going. ”

[... I'm not forcing you to do that. But the oath I said before is the truth. And I really don't know why the Black Rose did it. I can't tell you about the condition either.]

“Okay. What's your next request? ”

The Black Rose Queen, who heard from the Duke, was a conquering monarch whose name was also powerful in the cannabis world. Such a Black Rose Queen has passed on the location of Black Rose Castle to Whitehorn through a Nightmare Decider. I thought it might still be a trap, but I learned the location of the Black Rose Castle that no one knew about.

[This is the last one.]

A personal favor.

Before that, the nightmare maker hesitated a little. After a long conversation, Baek Hyun arrived at the front of the city of perforation. Baek Hyun hurried down to the floating porosity in an opaque manner over the apartment.

“What is it? ”

[... this request is a little strange...]

“Everything you've said so far has been strange. ”

[Ah, okay.]

The girl's voice has asked for earnestness.

[Become a friend of Shanak.]

I wanted to know what nonsense.
