The Returner

[558] 3. We're not done yet! Not yet! (3)

What the hell is he doing?

Lee Hyuk raised his head. His eyes caught sight of the beads he created sucking out everything in the world.

‘I did.'

This is what he made. It's what he did.

But I didn't feel anything real. To be precise, you have to say that the memory is not connected enough to make it feel real.

He was definitely conscious.

Look with your eyes, listen with your ears, think with your head.

But that moment was breaking apart. As if he had been sedated, consciousness existed, but the world was dazed, and the impending phenomenon was repeated.

‘You're losing it. ’

I pushed the existence of Lee Ji-hyuk, who was in the past, and he took over. But his ending wasn't a happy ending either. As time goes on, he will eventually lose his mind and cling solely to the instinct of destruction.

Just like the brains in the blackout move on instinct alone.

There was nothing bad about it.

It's a funny story, but what he does is not so different from what he does without reason. Rather, the memory of Yi Hyuk's past might help him carry out his will by blowing out reason completely than by having a little bit of hesitation now.

[Even if it's pathetic.]

Lee Hyuk's face distorted.

I know.

Lee Hyuk disappeared.

He didn't seal up Lee Hyuk. The existence of Lee Ji-hyuk disappeared completely. So he couldn't have talked to him.

What he is listening to is not what Lee Hyuk is doing. His transcendent brain, which perfectly remembers his past, is restructuring his personality based on his memory.

“Useless to any partner. ”

After all, reconstruction is possible when his will is present. In other words, it meant that he was curious about the personality of Lee Hyuk's past.

I don't want to be convincing, but I have to be convincing. His reasoning didn't allow him to resist.

He's curious.

Even though I had all the memories of Lee Hyuk, I couldn't understand the behavior of Lee Hyuk. I still couldn't understand how Lee Hyuk had moved in the past.

At first, I thought Lee Hyuk from the past was inferior to the present, and this feeling of hypocrisy arose. It was so hard for him to understand the repetition of irrational and irrational behavior.

But…….

Now he was understanding.

That's not all.

‘There's something missing. ’

There was something missing as I changed from the existence of Lee Hyuk to him. One of the most important elements that made up Lee Hyuk in the past did not lead to him.

Does it matter?

Not at all likely.

But it doesn't make a difference.

He doesn't have to be Lee Hyuk from the past, or Lee Hyuk from the past. Compared to Lee Yi Hyuk's past, he is now a much more evolved and complete being. Isn't there a reason that perfect beings crave imperfect beings?

Reasonably, he doesn't need to care about the existence of Lee Yi Hyuk from the past. It won't affect him now.

“Then why……. ”

Lee Hyuk distorted his face.

In addition to anger, hatred, and pleasure, there was a feeling of irritation.

Why does it keep getting so twisted?

I was thirsty.

His thirst for water bothers him.

Lee Hyuk looked down.

‘There's no reason to feel thirsty. ’

Look.

Everyone worships him.

Mayhem, the Horsemen, the Demon King and the Humans, even the Dragons.

I bow before him with honorable eyes and fearful eyes.

Who can see such a scene?

He is the first incarnation of destruction that has come into the world since the world began, and soon gives equity to all things.

Even if it's more instinctive than his will.

‘It doesn't matter.'

Giving yourself over to instinct isn't bad either.

In that sense…….

“I don't like it. ”

Lee Hyuk's eyes were inserted in exactly one place.

‘It bothers me.'

Alone.

Not everyone here worships Lee Hyuk. There were Barbaces with an unyielding hostility, and there were still Demon Kings who hated him.

But only two eyes caught his mind.

‘It bothers me.'

Those eyes.

Fear, hatred...... and hostility.

Explicit contempt.

Two eyes filled with blatant contempt, full of the will to never admit him, have been bothering him ever since.

One can be understood.

She's always been like that.

However, it was impossible to convince that weak human to show such contempt for him.

Are you out of your mind? ’

Even the Horsemen and Demon Kings look at him in fear? Just a human?

You can't do this in your right mind.

No...

Rather, it may be possible because it is insignificant. You can't even measure the strength of Lee Hyuk by his standards. All beings here are stronger than themselves. What does it mean that they are stronger than themselves?

Make sense.

I try to convince them.

“This……. ”

However, the unpleasantness that seemed to be scratching around the corner of my heart did not let go of Lee Hyuk.

“Come.”

Then I'll change your eyes. Despair and frustration.

Whoo-hoo!

“You deserve it. ”

The bead on Lee Hyuk's hand started to go crazy.

“You're disgusting! ”

Choi Jung-hoon gritted his teeth.

“Why are you so late? How far is it? ”

If this is Korea, I won't say a word. What's going on inside U.S. territory is that missiles take so long to fly.

“Damn Christopher! ”

“Ah! Shut up! If you have the strength to talk, give me the strength of your arm! ”

Choi Jung-hoon, who was reminded of the air, was constantly cursing.

“We're all going to die! ”

“Then curse me when I die! Because he's still alive! ”

Choi Jung-hoon gritted his teeth.

His sights were still the worst. The horses are almost drained. I can barely see them. Though the amount of water was still being sucked in because of the large amount of water, it was mostly an upside-down ground flake and a blown sandstorm.

It was man who filled his place.

No matter how much you deploy Reverse Gravity and strengthen your shield, you can't protect everyone. Those who cling to the wall of the shield eventually begin to bounce out of the shield, unable to overcome the manpower.

Please!

There's no time.

The more time you drag, the more sacrifices you make. And...

‘You said you were getting stronger. ’

It sucks the power out of all living things. When water and human beings are absorbed there, they will eventually strengthen the power of Lee Ji-hyuk.

Over time, their power decreases and Lee Hyuk grows stronger. I'm still not planning on coping with Lee Hyuk, but what if more time passes?

Destruction.

So you have to gamble.

Choi Jung-hoon focused on two things:

That Lee Hyuk is sucking up everything that exists. Even the lava rising up through the earth was sucking.

And the other thing...

‘It's a creature.'

These were living things that Lee Hyuk was absorbing. Other piles of dirt, chunks of rocks, and non-living things like lava will be sucked in, but they will not be empowering Lee Hyuk.

How do you know?

“Damn, how do you beat a guy who digs up dirt and counts? That's not fair! ”

“What are you talking about, man! ”

Choi Jung-hoon pressed down on the upward rage.

"Possibility. Possibility. ’

When fighting against an opponent you can never win, what strategies should you make?

It's simple

Throw it away.

Another possibility.

You can never win with the idea of handling every situation. There's a difference in power. So we have to blow up the verifications and have an adventure that will definitely hit once we get through.

If it fails, it is the main game, and if it works, it is the lottery.

“Is it far?”

Choi Jung-hoon shouts at the cold voice of the appendage.

“Come on, give me a hand with this! What can I do about this situation? ”

“You have a lot of hands. ”

As Aphedrice reaches out, Choi Jong-hoon's body flutters to the ground like a flag blown by a strong wind.

“Ugh…. ”

“We've increased gravity. I know it's hard, but it's better than flying. ”

“That's enough.”

Choi Jung-hoon licked his lips with his tongue out.

It felt a little strange.

So far, he's always been moving in the direction of helping Lee Ji-hyuk. Ever since I met Lee Hyuk, all of his thoughts have been directed at supporting Lee Hyuk and seducing Lee Hyuk who never wants to move.

But…….

Even though the author is not Lee Hyuk, I had no choice but to use my head to kill him.

“Soon the missiles will be loaded. Then you'll hit Lee Hyuk with that manpower. ”

Choi Jung-hoon raised his hand to point at Lee Hyuk.

“If I'm right... he sucks in all the living energy, but he doesn't absorb inanimate life. The nucleus is not alive. And you know that power well enough. ”

Aphedrice nods.

In her view, the nucleus was the worst weapon man-made. No Great Wizard, and no Demon Lord, can scatter that much firepower.

“But we can't catch Lee Hyuk with that nuke. I'm sure you know that. ”

Choi Jung-hoon nodded heavily.

“I didn't know there was such a problem with the nucleus. But it's going to be okay. because I've got something in mind, and this flying nuke is not a single shot. if the calculations are correct. My calculations are……. ”

“I don't have time for explanations. ”

“Yes?”

“Almost there. ”

Appeldrich's gaze is toward one place.

Choi Jung-hoon bites his teeth tightly. He can't feel it at all. He won't be able to pick up a missile until the moment the nuke explodes. It is known because it is the dragon Appeldrich.

“Pass it on! This is the moment the nucleus is sucked into Lee Hyuk. We need to push that son of a bitch up. ”

“…… you're asking me to do something incredible. But……. ”

The eyes of the appendicite were bound.

“I know what you mean. Let's do it on the honor of the dragon. ”
