The Returner

98. Do you really know who I am? -3

There is a sight that I do not understand even though I see it with my own eyes.

Overwhelming.

The Alpha felt it and was filled with joy.

This is power.

Yes, this is power.

The chunks of black mana created by Lee Hyuk burned like a flame and rose to the sky.

“Sweep.”

Low and heavy...

An indifferent voice that does not contain a single slice of emotional convenience flows out, and the chunks of Mana condense slightly and spread, and the rain of a huge flame begins to pour down on the world.

K-e-e-e-e-e!

Kyahhhhhh!

Monsters caught in the rain of flames melt without even screaming.

Clumsily missed, they groaned, rolling the floor, scratching, screaming in fear of coming out of their dreams.

Legion?

It wasn't like that.

I had to admit it was a clear mistake.

I thought that Lee Hyuk's way was to create an army and fight.

The things he summoned seemed too strong.

But no.

The true way of that terrible power is to wipe everything out with that power.

Monsters and summoners only buy time in between.

“Ha……. ”

The gate closest to twenty of them opens, but the cloudy monsters pouring out of it are completely organized in an instant.

No, "neat" is not appropriate.

I can see those monsters with fluids and blood and bubbles splattered all over them. How can they fit together like that?

Hell, too.

I've never been, but if I had a hell of a place, it'd be like this.

Alpha trembles at the excitement of digging in the flesh.

“Ha. Ha. Ha.”

You get a dry smile.

He was different from the powers he had known so far.

How could such a person exist in the world?

Hiding yourself in plain sight.

“Amazing.”

“Really?"

“Huh?”

Alpha feels appalled by the overwhelming presence that he feels behind his back.

Would it feel like this if a predator was growling with his teeth right behind his neck?

The tension that would strangle you in an instant? Fear?

No, it's not.

It's not that low of a feeling.

What should I call this?

A sense of awe that comes from a place of origin?

Crude.

Human language was so crude to express this feeling.

“I was impressed.”

“Really?"

“Yes, I was very impressed. You're human, but you're not. ”

“Bullshit. I'm a human being. More than anyone.”

“… I don't understand. Isn't he more than human? ”

Bleeding.

Lee Hyuk laughed.

Beyond humans?

I've endured those terrible years because I wanted to be a normal human being.

I don't know if it's a compliment to others, but for Lee Hyuk, it was just an insult.

He's a man who's fought a world to become human.

“Sounds good. It's funny to convince you. ”

“How are you feeling?”

“What?”

“Won't you join me? ”

“Are you still saying that? ”

The Alpha twists around, spreading its arms to Lee Ji-hyuk.

“You can be king of the world. ”

“Hmm?”

“If you stand in front of me and I help, it shouldn't be that hard to take over the world. Everything will be reformed before your name. Don't you want to feel it? ”

Lee Hyuk frowned.

“There are many kinds of pleasures in the world. But no pleasure is as sweet as the power it brings. If you look at what people at the top of the world coveted at the end, don't you see the consequences? Let me help you get to the top, put the world in your name. What do you think?”

Lee Hyuk nodded deeply.

“No, I won't. ”

“… Yes? ”

“I won't. ”

“Don't do that.... ”

Alpha grunts a little.

“It's not that hard. I'll help you, won't I? ”

“What are you? ”

“I'm more capable than I thought. Perfect as an advisor.”

“If you're so talented, why don't you do it? ”

“Ha, there's a human bowl... ”

“Oh, yeah. It's good to know the topic, but I don't do it, so look elsewhere. ”

“… Really? ”

“Yes.”

“Well, think about it for a second. ”

“No, I won't. ”

“… ha. ”

The Alpha's face distorts.

“Why won't you do it? They say you can have anything in the world! ”

“I don't need it. ”

“… Yes? ”

Lee Hyuk stroked his hand.

“Hey, that's really hard. I don't have one or two lines to worry about. Phew, I can't do it twice. ”

Alpha's face is dazed.

No, you son of a...

What the fuck is he doing?

“And…. ”

Lee Hyuk secretly looked at the alpha and said.

“You're not thinking about taking over the world anyway, are you? ”

“ ……. ”

“What you want to do is destroy, not possess, right? You want to turn it all upside down. ”

Alpha says nothing.

However, Lee Hyuk's words were clearly pricking.

“I haven't seen one or two of you. Some of them seem to be capable, um... ”

Lee Hyuk glanced at the summoners and misfits who were cleaning up the rest of the horses and turned his head again.

“I wish I could take advantage of you, but I'm sorry I'm so quick to notice. Is that what you have to say? ”

“You're going to regret this. ”

“You're cruel. You worry about other people. But usually... ”

Tuck.

Lee Hyuk's hand grabbed Alpha's neck.

“You need to start worrying about yourself at this point, Mr. Ojiraffer. ”

Wood Duck!

You hear the neck snap as your neck twists.

“Heave, heave! ”

Alpha's body is completely twisted.

There was a lot of blood on both hands holding Lee Hyuk's arms.

Her well-placed nails dig into Lee Hyuk's arms and blood spills out.

However, Lee Hyuk did not mind.

“It's all good, the first button is wrong. I told you to put it back. You should have done that first. ”

If it weren't for that, I might not have killed him.

No, it's not.

I don't think only one or two people died because of the gate, but we have to die.

“Grrrgh!"

A white concussion pops up from the Alpha's hand.

“What? Shield. ”

Lee Hyuk stretches out his shield, stopping the Alpha attack, then dies watching the Alpha exhale from the ground.

“Did it hurt?”

“Heh-heh-heh.”

Blood feet stand on Alpha's eyes.

“Lee Hyuk, I can't stand it if you come out like this. ”

“Don't hold back. ”

“... That can't be right. ”

Alpha's waist is raised.

“Let's kill him in half and drag him there. I wonder if I can say no to an open skull and see what my brain looks like with a mirror. ”

“Well, that's a good idea... I don't think so. ”

“What's that? ”

“Don't kill me. ”

“Yes?”

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Along with a huge roar, a smudge protrudes up behind Alpha's back and bites her shoulder.

“Rrrrgh!

The teeth of the hedgehog ripped straight from the Alpha's neck to the flank.

Ugh.

You hear the broken bones of the body cut out in front of the mouths of the hedgehog.

“Are you in trouble?”

Boom!

Ojik spits out the Alpha's arm that was biting in his mouth.

“Yes, good boy. ”

Lee Hyuk, who praised Ojik, slowly approached Alpha.

An alpha leaning on the floor desperately pressing down on the wound with his remaining arm looks at the foot approaching his face and smiles bitterly.

However, the blood spurting out of his mouth was preventing his smile from coming clean.

“Does it hurt a lot? ”

“Hehehehe, physical pain... Cough! Familiar……. ”

“Oh, really? ”

Lee Hyuk placed his hand on Alpha's head.

“For what?”

“You'll see when you get hurt. ”

Mana, spurted from Lee Hyuk's hand, digs Alpha's head.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhh!! ”

The alpha, who was screaming because his throat was bursting, rolled his eyes back, unable to make a sound, and began to vomit out a silent groan.

“Getting used to physical pain, you have to be mentally annoying. Right? But I've never seen anyone as effective as this.You 're... you're very traumatized. ”

Lee Hyuk kicked the alpha in the head.

“By the way, there are a lot of people who want to impersonate the Demon King if they want to be strong in any town. Arthur, I am the true Demon King. ”

I have a license.

It's true.

No, I mean it.

Oh, I can't show you. Really!

“Well, how long do you think you'll last? I'll give you a compliment if you last more than five minutes. ”

I know it doesn't even sound like it.

The alpha doesn't twist much, it just convulses in place.

Lee Hyuk watched the scene and turned and flew his tentacles towards the remaining horses.

It was a good thing we didn't have a level five to get it over with.

No, if I had a level 5, I could raise an army with my subordinates...

Too bad.

“Hmm……. ”

Lee Hyuk, who was sucking up all the remaining Mana and horseshoes, looked around.

Watching the landscape of a half-devastated city, I couldn't help but sigh.

It was encouraging for the civilians not to suffer too much damage, but not to be happy about it.

Tak.

As Lee Hyuk flicked his finger, the twitching alpha sagged.

Hah, haha...

Low breathing sounds come out.

“Well, I'm sure you have some serious objections somewhere, but you have to choose your purpose and target for revenge. ”

Lee Hyuk put his foot on Alpha's neck, which is still unconscious.

“You get it wrong, you get it wrong. ”

Wood Duck.

Alpha's crushed cervical spine slowly hardened.

Death.

Simple but absolute condition abnormality.

“Well, I think I killed him too easily. ”

You must have suffered a curse for at least a few decades before you died, which is pretty amazing.

If it had been Beraf, he would have handed his soul over neatly to the horse system.

Lee Hyuk opened his arms to those who were slowly approaching him.

“Let's eat. I'm hungry.”

The long, deep night was passing.

“Cough.”

The man vomited a dry cough.

The long-haired man, who stole the blood from his nose to his sleeve, tilts his head.

“You're strong.”

“I told you. ”

In front of the man stood a little child.

However, the long snake made me guess that the head that was rolled up and the wings of the bat on my shoulders were not ordinary children.

“Eid is dead. I can't even use my hands. ”

“Of course it is. ”

“But something's a little strange. Not quite what you said. I think I can slit his throat right now. Why do I have to be so careful? You're stronger, aren't you? ”

“No. I'm just bluffing. There are limits to the power of the mind, not the body. ”

“Is that so? That's a shame. ”

“And let me warn you……. ”

“Hmm?"

The child said in a grim tone.

“Don't underestimate him. He is the ninety-ninth Demon King, the Raider of Hell, and the destroyer of worlds. Even though he is now as thick and weak as he used to be, his mind will not be the same as before. ”

“Hmm……. ”

“Bondi can't afford it with human strength. ”

“Can you, the Devil, do it? ”

“If he regains his power, then I too will have to crown his head and await his disposal. But not now. ”

“I see. All right, I admit he's the biggest hitch. ”

“What are you going to do? ”

“It's simple. I heard he can't be stopped once he regains all his strength? ”

“Yes.”

“Then we must kill him before he regains his strength. ”

The man with long gray hair smiled brightly.

“Vengeance for one death. ”

His name is Alpha.

One, but not one.
