The Returner

4. What is Lee Ri Hyuk doing? (1)

“Drain.”

Lee Hyuk started sucking Mana.

The density was so high that it felt like something of a completely different nature, not Mana.

“Ugh.”

Lee Hyuk gripped it.

The exhausted Mana began to collide with the dark Mana, which was located inside Lee Hyuk's body.

“Oops.”

Lee Hyuk bit his mouth tightly.

I feel a bomb exploding inside my body.

Mana is constantly entering the body, crushing, shredding and detonating the body.

Shock waves erupted from within the body with a series of collisions.

“Darling!”

Erkana notices the situation of Lee Hyuk and stops approaching Lee Hyuk.

Herkana could not get close because she knew that the act of touching Lee Hyuk was making her more dangerous.

She also knew how dangerous it was for Mana, who had extreme temperament, to collide with each other.

Moreover, Manawa, who was being absorbed by Lee Hyuk, was too large to say that she was in one person's body.

Combining the two Mana will bring the top Demon King closer to the amount of Mana. Since such a Mana is colliding inside the body, it was hard to let Lee Hyuk's body not tear apart even now.

The body of Lee Hyuk, the body of the powerful Demon Kings, could not escape the human category. Even though I gained the ether by returning to Earth and my body was moderately strengthened thanks to it, it was only human flesh.

The reinforcement system is the most celebrated dinner in the world, but nothing is better than a piece of paper in front of the Demon King.

“Darling……. ”

Erkana looks at Lee Hyuk with worried eyes.

If she thought about the pain and risk that Lee Hyuk would suffer, she would have to stop it, but she couldn't stop Lee Hyuk. Now that the boundary between Earth and the Magic System is crumbling, weakness is only a sure death that will slowly come.

You have to reclaim half the power of Lee Ji-hyuk in his prime to have a chance of survival.

Knowing it, she couldn't stop Lee Hyuk.

“Shhh.”

Lee Hyuk's body did not overcome the reactions and eventually began to explode.

“Lizards!”

As Herkana raises her voice, the appendage flies to her.

“Heel up. ”

“But……. ”

“Can't you see we're in a collision? ”

“I understand.”

Normally, Hill would destroy the body of Lee Ji-hyuk, but now there is already a conflict between White Magic Power and Black Magic Power in the body. Since the body was already crumbling, a little more white horsepower didn't make a difference.

Eiffeldrich heels Lee Hyuk, who understands Erkana's words.

“Ji-hyuk, cheer up. ”

That was all she could do.

Paaaaaaaah!

Lee Hyuk's temples burst and blood gushed like fountains.

The red blood flew to Herkana and drenched her face red, but Herkana did not take a step back and looked at Lee Hyuk with her eyes open.

“Hehe.”

Lee Hyuk gripped it.

Is this really for assassination? ’

If someone knew that Lee Hyuk would absorb this Mana and set a trap, it would be a great trap. As he begins to absorb, Mana, who has a density above his expectations, is pushed into the flesh.

The once-in-a-generation drain is eroding the body with such a high concentration of Mana. It's very inefficient, but it's a very rational and definite way to kill Lee Ji-hyuk.

I know it sounds crazy, but Lee Hyuk's physical condition was severe as I thought.

If it had collided from the outside, Mana was colliding within the body of Lee Ji-hyuk, who would have blown it lightly to Seoul.

If it wasn't for the training Mana Control with endless EXP, it would have remained even after the body exploded.

A short walk followed.

“… can it hold? ”

Erkana answers the question in a sharp voice.

“How should I know, you stupid bitch! ”

“ ……. ”

Unlike the face that didn't change, Herkana was also anxious.

Appeldrich stared at Lee Hyuk with a serious face.

It was almost impossible to accept that Mana was attacked by each other in one body.

Even if it's Lee Hyuk.

So Lee Hyuk was building up the white horsepower that entered his body by converting it into black magic. The problem is that the process of receiving white horsepower into the body must be preceded in order to produce the result.

Rrrrgh.

Lee Ji-hyuk's teeth are broken.

The flesh bursts, and the bones that did not overcome the pressure are crushed and you repeat to recover to the restoration magic of the appendage.

“Mind?”

Appeldrich exclaims in an emergency.

“Your mind will collapse first! You've crossed a line of robbers a human can withstand! I'm not immortal anymore! ”

“Now that you know, shut up. ”

“Herkana! ”

“I said shut up. ”

Herkana's voice was buried alive.

“How dare you question my husband's mind? ”

“ ……. ”

“He climbed up to the Demon King in a human body. No matter how immobilized the body is, a normal human being would never do it. You have a mind you can't even imagine, so shut up and watch. ”

The appendage bites the lip tightly.

She knows better how strong Lee Hyuk is. She spent more time with Lee Hyuk.

But now is not the time for unconditional assurance.

It was not Lee Hyuk who immediately recovered from any damage as in the past. Even though Lee Yi Hyuk's body is still circular through the healing magic of the appendix, every time he is wounded and recovered, his mind has an underling.

Ordinary people are constantly shocked to death after a second of pain. Just watch.

“Don't worry about it. ”

Herkana said in a low voice.

“He's not that weak. If he was, I wouldn't have fallen for him. ”

Erkana looks at Lee Hyuk with sharp eyes.

But her hands were also slightly trembling.

Oh, yeah?

Lee Hyuk became aware.

Have you lost your mind a little? Why are you so dazed?

No, wait…….

Why can't I see anything?

Lee Hyuk tried to move his body.

At the same time, his rage preys on him.

“Ugh.”

Immediately, Lee Hyuk, who had recovered his momentary memory that had flown away, gripped his mouth. But blood gushes from his insides like a waterfall, forcibly opening his mouth and pouring it out.

This is killing me. ’

If there were a balance between life and death, it would be leaning towards death a lot by now.

“Shame on you.”

I don't know if I'm getting it right. My eyes burst and my eardrums fell, I couldn't hear or see them.

However, Lee Hyuk increased the amount of Mana that was absorbed again.

Wood Duck.

The bones of the hand that attract Mana are crushed without overcoming the shock. There was a lot of pain coming out of my mouth, but I've already been through a lot.

Pain is never getting used to it, but it is true that his threshold is higher than others. The amount of mana absorbed in the flesh increased and it seemed like thunder burst in my ears that I couldn't hear.

Lee Hyuk gripped it and turned Mana into black magic.

As the Black Magic Power piled up and piled up again, the Black Magic Power began to swallow the Mana that was entering the flesh by itself.

“Phew.”

Stabilizer.

As the amount of black magic accumulated in the body became more overwhelming than white magic, it was able to suppress and switch without much pain.

“Ow!”

However, the foreign Mana coming in from the side is causing pain.

Turning his healed eyes, the appendage pours its healing magic on him.

“Stop!”

As Lee Hyuk gestures, Appeldrich lowers his hand.

Yeah? Yeah.

The face of the appendage is subtle.

Did you notice how worried that lizard was?

We're all set.

Lee Hyuk opened his mouth when he smiled.

“If you're good, you'll cry. ”

“Did you know you almost died? ”

“I can't die like this. ”

I almost died.

Lee Hyuk shakes his head, shaking his head as he sees a lump of Mana that is almost the size of a basketball.

“I don't know which madman sent you, but if you were going to kill me, I'd say it was a brilliant plan. ”

If it was hard, he'd really be dead.

Unlike the attacks of the Demon Kings who were destroying him from the outside, this was really happening inside the body. If I had done something wrong, my body would have been shattered and I would have become a flesh that would not have been able to recover magic.

“Darling, are you okay? ”

“Huh."

Lee Hyuk nodded lightly.

It wasn't good enough, but I thought I'd fly away with the chief.

They struggled because of their different attributes, but they put the monstrous Mana inside their bodies.

"How long has it been since I've felt this much Mana? ’

It is the first time since returning to Earth.

Lee Hyuk examined the body and nodded. The disadvantage of not replenishing is fatal, but after this, the Demon King was enough to strike alone.

“The result is good……. ”

Lee Hyuk glared at the disappearing gates.

‘It must be the gate that sent me after you. ’

At this point, you can conclude with a symptom.

Not only are multiple gates open at the same time, but what comes out of them is the same. And the only people who can use the Mana Nuggets that come out of it are Lee Hyuk and Apeldiche in this world.

Given all that, it was a result.

“But I don't know the purpose. ”

Lee Hyuk scratched his head.

Why would he do something like this?

Do you really want to kill Lee Hyuk?

It is too inefficient to do so. If you think about the energy you need to cope on the other side to send this much Mana, it wasn't so bad. There was no reason to take heavy losses and do this uncertainty.

‘There must be something...' ’

Lee Hyuk shakes his head.

It was not conclusive that I was thinking about it. First of all, if you wait while you solve what is right in front of you, goodwill or malice, you will come to him eventually.

Then we'll settle this.

Choi Jung-hoon came to Lee Hyuk one day and said something that made him sick.

“Are you all right?”

“… Where have you been? ”

“I wonder if you're going to explode. ”

“Oh, you must have been a long way away in case of blood. Clean.”

“Hehe, that's not it. ”

“I heard your blood isn't dirty, should I blow it up? ”

“I'm sorry."

Choi Jung-hoon hurriedly said.

“It's time to settle things over there. ”

“Over there?”

“It's North Korean. If a bunch of monsters like that go crazy... ”

“Oh, right. Yes, but.... ”

When Lee Hyuk laughed, Choi Jung-hoon felt uneasy.

“I'm hungry, but once I've had some food, ”

“Darling, I'm a hamburger. ”

“ ……. ”

Choi Jeong-hoon looked at the dust globe from the far north.

‘Sorry.'

I did my best.

It's true.
