The Returner

[560] 3. We're not done yet! Not yet! (5)

“Shut it down!”

With the sound of Choi Jung-hoon's bloodshed, shields surround Lee Yi Hyuk's body. At first glance, it was like a shield wrapped in thousands of layers to protect Lee Ji-hyuk. But the real use of that shield was not to protect Lee Ji-hyuk.

Isolating the space itself so that the nuclear explosion that will blow up Lee Ji-hyuk will not be wasted.

The priests put a protective shield around Lee Hyuk with all their strength. The blessing of the Holy Spirit and the blessing of Mana work simultaneously. Even the Demon Monarchs controlled the blown Mana and surrounded Lee Hyuk's body.

“Shinma collaboration? I feel dirty.”

Barbhace shakes his head as he drains the blood from the floor.

“But I'll use whatever means I can. Just like you taught me. ”

Barbace smiles bitterly.

“More! More! Think of it as the last one and throw it all away! ”

With Choi Jung-hoon's shout, even the dragons began to release the Reverse Gravity and isolate the body of Lee Hyuk from space.

Soon...

“Blow!”

There is a desperate wind.

Blind-like intense light pierces through the shield and envelops the world.

Your eardrums burst.

The shields won't stop the sound.

Blind light flashed, and instead of a burst eardrum, I sensed how much the body was trembling and how loud the sound was.

Despite the pain, Jung-hoon smiled.

‘You couldn't have absorbed all that power. ’

If it were possible, it would not have created such a vector. It's only if Lee Hyuk absorbs the power directly, not the vector. That's why I used such an awkward method.

A twenty-seven foot nuclear missile is simply impossible to release its power at once.

Of course, if its power works intact in that little space, it can never be ignored. And what if Lee Hyuk added to the difficulty of absorbing the horses?

‘Not even a god can survive in there. ’

Humans, horses, and dragons united in battle. If we don't catch Lee Hyuk with this, there will be no hope for them.

But Jung-hoon was sure.

“I can't stand it. ”

If you survive, I'll give you a clean bill of health. I'd rather cut my throat and give it to you. If he can survive that power, he deserves it.

‘I can't see very well. ’

It seems to be blinded when the light first came out. Although others did not take their eyes off Lee Jeong-hoon, there was no way to avoid the light.

But I think it's good.

What happened to your eyes? What do you mean the eardrum burst? I give as much as I can to prevent such damage.

Immediately, something warm began to seep into my eyes.

“Ah……. ”

The blurred vision begins to focus. Jung-hoon Choi, who could barely discern the object, saw the appendage with a blunt face that put a heel around his eye.

“… Thank you. ”

Am I telling you the truth?

I couldn't tell because I couldn't hear. I could understand why people who were deaf could not hear could talk.

“Look closely. ”

But for a moment, you begin to hear the sound of the appendicite, whether the eardrum had been fixed.

“It's a sight you've created. ”

Choi Jung-hoon bites his lips tightly and nods.

How do I put this, the view?

It was as if there was another small sun in the sky. The sun, which still emits a dazzling burst of light, is still raging because its power is not exhausted.

Choi Jeong-hoon compared the real power of the sun at that moment with the power inside. Compared to the total amount of energy the Sun generates, it will not be dust, but it will be more than just a force that acts in the same space.

"I don't know."

He's not an astrophysicist. No, even if an astrophysicist were to come, you wouldn't be able to calculate how great a force is working in there.

“Great... great man, you too. I think I know why Lee Hyuk thought you were special. ”

“Do we still recognize that distinction? ”

“You'll be happier than anyone else. ”

Your body is crumbling.

“ ……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon woke up.

‘It's not over yet. ’

“Those Demon Kings again……. ”

“Do Humans have nothing to learn from mistakes? ”

“Yes?”

“Don't go ahead. I'm sure that the attack you created worked, but that doesn't mean his disappearance. ”

Choi Jung-hoon's eyes trembled.

You don't mean extinction?

Alive?

In there?

Choi Jung-hoon snapped his neck.

The Demon Kings stare up, not relaxed at all. Just like Lee Hyuk will pop out of there any minute now.

‘Nonsense. Damn it.’

In that free space, there was a force at work that could not be in reality right now. And you're saying that you can survive it naked? That one?

“... It's too much. ”

“Don't be discouraged. ”

Appeldrich speaks in a blunt tone.

“Your attack certainly worked. Now we have a win, too. ”

Choi Jung-hoon clenched his fist tightly.

“So back off. ”

“Yes?”

“You are a precious force. Maybe you're the only one who can create variables in this battle. So you might want to step back. It's gonna explode, that explosion. You can't stop it with a shield. ”

“Ah……. ”

“Are you late?”

The appendage stiffens and shields you forward. But it seemed clear that it alone could not stop that enormous power.

Goooooooooooo!

A condensed and condensed energy bursts out at once.

“Surround!”

And at that moment, Margaery's radiant glow from the Demon Kings' hands enveloped the white spheres. To be precise, it would be better to be completely surrounded than covered.

Whoo-hoo.

“That one?”

Choi Jung-hoon opened his eyes wide.

Gate!

The fiercely viewed Lee Hyuk-style gate spread into spheres and completely surrounded the beads of light.

Kwaaaahhhhhhhhhh!

A thousand bombs erupted.

With the effort of the appendage, Choi Jeong-hoon's eardrum bursts again. But I didn't even feel pain. Choi Jung-hoon was too nervous to feel the pain of such a trivial matter.

As soon as the heavenly voices disappear, even the gate disappears.

And Barbace speaks quietly in a static place.

“You've been fighting on your own in another dimension. There are a lot of useful ways to use Lee Ji-hyuk. ”

Appeldrich asks in a bold voice.

“How did you do that? ”

“The explosion moved to another dimension. I couldn't have done it alone, but now I've learned to cooperate. There was a tremendous reaction, but it was cheaper than any other dimension where it was supposed to be inverted. With or without life, some dimensions are the energy that could have flown away. ”

Blood continues to flow from Barbacce's mouth. Not only that, the bodies of the Demon Kings burst like a mop.

“Huff, huff, huff! ”

Those arrogant Demon Kings lie on the ground, gasping for breath. It means that he put all of his magical power into a single moment that happened just moments ago.

“Yi... Yi Hyuk? ”

Choi Jung-hoon looked around with trembling eyes. There was not a speck of dust left in the air. The dried clouds disappeared, and thanks to the clean air, only the clear sky was visible.

Contrary to the peaceful skies, the earth seemed to be rushing with enormous rakes. A mountain emerges that seems to lead to hell.

The word "terrain altering battle" fits perfectly.

“Is Lee Hyuk dead? ”

“Die?”

Barbatch smiles at Choi Jung-hoon. Then he kindly used the translator and spoke. That arrogant Demon King is for the humble.

“You can't die like this. Maybe it flew to another dimension, caught in the explosion. ”

“Then……. ”

“He must be coming back. ”

Barbace said with a stiff face.

“With hatred and anger. ”

“When?”

“When?”

Barbatch grins.

“You pretended to be very precious, and you ignored him the most. Right now."

Whoo-hoo.

Barbacce's words end with a bloody gate in front of them. Barbatch groans, even though he was expecting everything.

“You monster. ”

I've lived so long, but I've never been in such a desperate battle. But the battle is not over yet.

Barbatch looks at the gate with tense eyes.

No matter how much power he had over God, he couldn't have withstood the shock. There is damage. There must be. The question is, how much damage did it do?

I heard your voice before it appeared.

“Trauma seems to exist. ”

Lee Hyuk's foot appeared at the gate.

Jubbuck.

Beginning with the paw on the ground, the rest of Yi Hyuk's body also walked out of the gate. His flesh, not a shroud of silk, is in its full form.

“It's a terrible experience for the body to continue to dissipate and regenerate. Maybe the reason Lee Hyuk was so strong was not because of his immortal power, but because of his best state of mind. Even if I get hit by this again, I'll go crazy. ”

Choi Jung-hoon's eyes were filled with despair.

I'm fine.

So fine.

He launched such a powerful attack, but Lee Ji-hyuk was as relaxed as the one who came out.

“... You mean it didn't work out? ”

“No.”

Appeldrich firmly said.

“It worked. That worked, too. ”

Paaaahhhh!

At the end of what Apeldrich said, Lee Hyuk's arms burst out in fear of being hit by a bomb.

“Hehe!”

As soon as you bend, your back bursts, gushing fountains of blood around you. At the same time, the legs and face began to melt.

“Grrrgh!"

It was not a complete outcome.

The exploded and melted parts instantly regenerated and quickly returned to his normal form.

Only the blood scattered in the flesh and the pieces of the arm that fell on the floor remained as evidence that the body of Lee Hyuk collapsed.

“Heave-ho.”

Barbatch smiles bitterly.

“Almost a shell left. Was it intense? ”

“Almost killed myself. This is a moment I don't want to think about. ”

Lee Hyuk shakes his head as if he was tired.

“You're right. You've worked too hard to survive. You're the only one who survived. But that goes for you, too. It doesn't look like it's hard for me to kill all of you with what I have left. ”

“Do you really think so? ”

“… Is that a no? ”

“Poor Demon King, you are the Demon King, but you have not become the Demon King. After all, you have what remains of humanity. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“The Demon King stands alone in a mysterious time. You had to know what that meant. ”

Barbatch raises his heavy body into the air.

“I'll settle for you now, Lee Hyuk. I'm sick of it.”
