Record of a Thousand Lives

“What does that mean? ”

Kang Yoon-soo frowned.

You think you're the reason the whole world is falling apart?

“That's not why you're here. I'll go upstairs and show you. ”

Syrian wakes up from his seat, pouring his remaining alcohol into his mouth.

* * *

They climb the tower.

There were no obstacles, as the Syrians came down and dealt with the trial.

The terrain changed from floor to floor.

I saw a yellow wheat field, a bloody fortress, and a vast river.

The bodies of the monsters killed by the Syrians were often found everywhere.

There was also a resting place with alcohol, a furnace, potions, and a bed on the 10th floor.

So I reached the 50th floor of the tower.

The center of the tower.

The Syrian has finally stopped.

At first glance, it was an empty floor with no decorations, monsters, or anything.

However, the environment changed as the Syrian muttered and clapped his hands.

A shimmering blob of light rises from the dark surroundings like a firefly.

A blue beam gathered together to form a round sphere in front of their eyes.

Different spheres grew restlessly one by one and then many more.

Syrian said.

“This is everything in the world. ”

Kang Yoon-soo looked at the figure before her eyes.

It was the universe.

Every little sphere of the world was melted down and clearly visible.

Kang Yoon-soo has seen a lot of worlds.

There were medieval times similar to the Sylphia continent, and there were earth-like worlds where he originally lived.

I also saw a very peculiar world.

A world where mutant zombies organize resistance to human forces.

A world where all people are immortal and neglectful of life.

A world where all time stopped, except for one person.

At a glance, I could see a world where non-human beings lived and had already been destroyed.

Iris opens her mouth in shock.

“Oh, my God.”

Other people's expressions were not very different.

“I've never thought of the continent as... small. ”

“Oh, I can't believe I'm seeing this. ”

“You can't just observe the world. Take a closer look. ”

The Syrian flicks his fingers.

Then I was able to expand the world to one of many spheres.

The universe is gradually expanding, allowing you to see one person.

A woman sitting on the throne was stabbed with a variety of knives and bled out.

However, the woman licks her own blood by pulling out the knife that was in her body.

“One more bag. Is that all you got? ”

The Syrian flicked his finger.

Then the point of view changed.

The man who pressed the old robe killed the man who lived in the room with the sword.

The murderer took off his robe, surprisingly similar in face to the man who died.

“I've been through a lot in this place. Don't worry about vacancies. I'll take my place. ”

The Syrian claps his hands.

Then the point came back so that the world could be seen.

“The tower's observation function. But we can't go to another world or interfere. ”

Kang Yoon-soo had never seen anything like this before.

Other worlds than Sylphia, thousands of people.

So many worlds are being destroyed by one of their own?

However, I was curious.

“Why are you showing me this after a thousand lifetimes? ”

“I was okay with that until my previous life. But you're gonna put the whole world in danger from now on. ”

“Explain in detail. ”

Kang Yoon-soo pointed a knife at him.

“Good. It's your last life. ”

The Syrian stabbed the floor with a spear.

“In the past, I was the leader of the Ancient Heroes and held the most troubling job. King of all things! What a beautiful name, but sad in reality. The king of all creation can see the fate of his world. That's why I knew the fate of this world earlier. ”

The spear paints gold on the floor.

“Sylphia was doomed to be destroyed by the emperor. Of course I snorted. I asked myself, do I have to follow my destiny? I shaken my head, saying no. Have I lost my mind? Watching my loved ones and the continent perish? ”

The gold on the floor became deeper.

“But when I tried to deny the fate of the continent, what happened after that came into my mind. What happens if the emperor doesn't destroy the continent? Then the rest of the world will be destroyed even if we keep this world safe. ”

The spear bends all around the floor.

“I suffered a hundred days, a thousand days, 10,000 things. All the rest of the world would be destroyed, even if it was to protect my world. I told myself again. Isn't my world important? You don't care if I protect my people and the rest of the world dies or not, do you? Don't be so hard on yourself. Just protect what's important to me! ”

The window pauses and trembles.

But soon I moved again.

“Yes, I did. I loved this continent so much. I wanted to be a king who cared for my people more than I did, who protected everything. But you see, the nature of the job of the king of all things is hard. He showed me in his head the other worlds that would perish if this world refused fate. ”

The window extends horizontally.

“Oh, my God. There's a lot of idiots like me out there. Those idiots who want to save their world and give their lives to protect it. Do I have the courage to take their world? Can I kill them all just to save my world? They're kings with my aspirations. ”

The window is lowered vertically.

“…… I came to a conclusion in principle. To save more lives. ”

The rolling stone splashes across the window and crumbles neatly.

“I was faithful to my destiny. He left on a journey, but he was a rear peacock. I didn't tell them my plan. Because they would have stopped me. I laughed on purpose when I killed Minerva with my bare hands. I thought crying in front of her would reveal everything about me. ”

The spear burrows through the tortuous floor.

“I rebuilt the tower. My life did not diminish inside the tower, and I could observe the rest of the world. At the top of the tower is the Pandemonium Gate, and that's where the magic will come down. As time went by, the continent would follow its destiny smoothly. Then one day, a man appeared who defied his destiny. ”

I raised my spear and took it to the floor.

The hole is deep.

“I didn't know at first. But then I found out that the fate of the world was twisting in some way. People from all over the world are starting to move to Sylphia. And I began to see a man who was killed by the Mage and defied his destiny. Kang Yoon-soo, you. ”

Puck. Puck. Puck. Puck. Puck. Puck. Puck. Puck.

The spear continues to pierce the floor.

“I never thought the Magran would be interested in one human. You kept repeating your life for the sake of the devil. Of course I didn't come back, but I was king of all things, so I was able to see you against your destiny as I regretted. ”

The window draws a long line around the continuing point.

“It was fine at first. Even if you came back, it wouldn't affect the other world. I was glad. You defied your destiny and did not affect the other world. Even hoped that you would kill the Mage and save the world. That's why I didn't teach you the fate of the world on purpose. Rather, he died willingly as food for you. ”

Incontinence on the floor led to everywhere.

“But it was my mistake. You've always failed to kill the Mage. And as the regression continued, there was an adverse effect. The more you repeated your life, the more destiny began to break. ”

The window has stopped.

“And now, for the thousandth time, your chance is over. If you don't regroup or the continent collapses, another world will collapse. ”

The Syrian has drawn his spear.

On the old floor was the depiction of Sylphia continent.

A world full of mountains and life with tiny islands along the shoreline.

The king of all creation put his spear down and touched the continent.

“If this world rejects destiny, all worlds will be like this. ”

He taps the floor.

Then the spheres in front of me began to tremble.

Choo-choo!

The whole world is doomed.

At the same time, I could see the end of the people who lived there.

Before the end of the world, people cried out in fear.

They hug their loved ones and families, resist death and condemn destruction.

They were just like themselves.

When the Syrian flicks his fingers, the spheres return to their original state.

It was just a simulation now, but if this world does not perish, the rest of the world will perish horribly.

The Syrian continued.

“So I created a partnership, broke the rules of the world, and I created the last four thousand lives. But you have overcome my obstacles endlessly. The transformation of the Incredible Dragon, and the new Sword. That's how you ended up here. ”

The Syrian explanation is over.

There is silence.

Shanette opens her mouth heavily.

“You...... have committed treason. ”

The Syrian smiled powerlessly.

“Please don't be so irrational. People see me as a great man, but I'm not a hero. ”

He stabs his temples with his index finger.

The guilt of betraying a former colleague and the mission to protect a different world seemed to drive Syrian insane.

“I have betrayed my allies and I will destroy the world. You have to hate me. You have to hate me. If you kill me, don't feel any remorse. It's only right to get rid of me. ”

Henrik asks with a stiff face.

“Why us? ”

“I'm a bad actor. ”

Syrian smiles.

However, his expression seemed sad.

“Therefore, I have no choice but to say this while stopping you, Kang Yun-su. ”

He said low.

“Give up.”

The king of all creation holds the scepter.

“I calculated the route to get here as I watched you turn back. But I don't know if I have the power of God yet. I couldn't even see you up in the sky. But not the Almighty. Right?"

The Syrian spear points at him.

“So give it up. Your very existence is against your destiny. If you don't give up, I will kill you. To destroy this world. ”

Everyone looked at Kang Yoon-soo.

He thought and thought.

After a long time, he finally opens his mouth to the Syrian.

“Syrian, there's one thing you don't understand. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“How did you break the rules of the world? ”

Syrian said:

You broke the rules of the world.

By doing so, Kang Yoon-soo's life became the last and Mahwang appeared early.

It was a short while before the Syrian opened his mouth.

“I'll explain that. ”

Everyone turns their heads.

How long has this been going on?

A man walked from over there.

Lumiere Kizan.

He was an Imperial Alchemist.

Kang Yoon-soo straightened up.

“How did you get here? ”

“It is my authority to summon him. ”

Syrian intervention.

Lumiere approached and said:

“The reason the rules of the world are broken is because they've brought a creature that shouldn't exist on this planet to the continent. ”

The alchemist points to the group.

“And there are those of you who should not be in this world." ”
