Destroyed World (2)
Once the location was captured, moving to that location was not that difficult for Hans.
This was no exception even in this extreme environment worse than hell.
As he flew quickly to the place where life reaction was detected, he glanced down at the ground.
The scenery that passed by in an instant was all similar.
Destroyed buildings, collapsed ground, devastated nature, etc.
‘This is a truly destroyed world.’
The end of one dimension.
Although he had encountered many times in the world facing crisis, this was his first time seeing a world completely destroyed.
The same goes for Kang Hwan-gye, who lost his courage and was on the verge of destruction, and Devore not long ago also had at least a possibility of revival.
‘If all living beings in the entire dimension were exterminated at once… how many people do you mean they died?’
Even Hans, who prided himself on being the master of death, could not easily guess.
If anything, such as the victim’s soul, final thoughts, or the energy of death, remained, all of them had dried up.
It was impossible to find any bodies left intact, as if they had melted in the stomach.
‘But one thing is certain. ‘At least hundreds of millions of people would have lost their lives because of this.’
That was also the case when it was limited to humanity.
Considering that all living things in the dimension, including plants and animals, were exterminated due to this incident…
‘What on earth are you aiming for, Beoncheonhoeju? ‘Why are you doing this?’
Cosiyas will not be the only world destroyed as it is now.
There are probably quite a few worlds that have disappeared without even mice or birds knowing, in places unknown to them, under the pretext of spreading mystery to the Earth.
What on earth are you trying to achieve by accumulating such enormous amount of bad karma?
[You have arrived.]
With that thought in mind, he reached his destination in an instant and slowly looked around.
I needed to focus more on this search to find out.
This place was not that different from other places.
It must have been a slum before, except that the ruins of collapsed huts were gathered together and shabby clothes, presumed to have been worn by humans during their lifetime, were strewn everywhere.
‘Is this place?’
Hans got down on the ground and walked towards the remains of one of the huts.
Then he lightly waved one hand and delicately released magical power.
Kugu Palace—
At the same time, all sorts of miscellaneous things rise into the air.
The debris floating in front of him, as if in a state of weightlessness, was scattered and something inside was pulled in front of him.
[found.]
Hans quietly looked at what was coming right in front of him.
A being that had brought him here and was emitting a feeble response to life even at this very moment.
A translucent blue crystal with a sleeping girl in her early teens curled up like a fetus, clutching something in both hands.
***
she was dreaming
A long dream that I don’t know when it started or how long it will continue.
-“#%@—!!”
He heard a voice calling him and turned around, but there was no one there.
As usual, only pitch-black darkness, unable to see an inch in front of her, greeted her.
She squatted down again and buried her face in her knees.
Trying to think about it would only make my head hurt, so I thought I would just pass the time as usual.
Forgetting how time passes, who you are, and why you are doing this.
-“#%@—!!”
But something was different this time.
The voice that would normally disappear if I ignored it like this resounded in my mind again.
And with a louder sound than before.
Her hands clasped her temples.
When I heard that voice, my mind started to tingle and I tried to think of something, but the stabbing pain that followed immediately interrupted it.
‘no.’
I don’t like being sick.
I just wanted to forget everything and fall asleep like this.
Deeply immersed in a world without any pain or suffering.
As usual, on your own…
‘alone?’
Her movements as she grabbed her head suddenly stopped.
Next, even stronger pain tormented her, but she, who had already focused on one topic, gritted her teeth and endured it.
In the meantime, her thoughts began to gradually awaken as the voice continued to be heard.
‘no. I don’t like being alone. I… I…!’
And the next moment.
-“Ramu—!!”
With a familiar voice shaking my head.
“brother!”
She opened her eyes and raised her upper body.
“···uh?”
In a clean room that I have never seen before.
Wrapped in a soft blanket that I never imagined such a thing could exist.
She blinked and tilted her head.
“What is this… where am I…?”
Unable to organize her thoughts due to the sudden change in situation, she looked around with a bewildered expression.
A gorgeous interior that she, who was born in a garbage dump and lived in ruins all her life, never dared to dream of.
As she was examining it as if fascinated, her eyes suddenly became fixed on a certain place.
“ah!”
Beyond the large window on one side of the room.
There, a world that I could only imagine after seeing it in a storybook unfolded.
“No way is that…”
It was my first time seeing it in person, but I knew it instinctively.
That thing that felt so clear and transparent was something I had only heard about in stories.
That ‘blue sky’.
“Ah, you’re awake.”
When I was just staring out the window like that.
An unfamiliar man’s voice came from behind her, in the direction of the door.
“···who are you?”
She turned to look at him, very wary, and grabbed the blanket tightly.
My mind was still dizzy and I couldn’t organize my thoughts, but it was clear that the current situation was not normal.
Her words contained complex questions such as the identity of the other person, what she wanted, and why she was here.
“Oh, you mean me?”
I don’t know if I know how she feels.
The man came into the room carrying a tray filled with water and porridge, placed it on the table next to the bed, and scratched his chin.
He seemed to think about something for a moment, but then he smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, the details are complicated, so let’s do it step by step. First of all, I…”
In a world where food supply is difficult, they have a sturdy physique that is hard to find, clear skin, clothes made of expensive-looking, high-quality fabrics, and even glasses that are said to be exclusive to the high-class.
A man of a type she had never seen before in her short life spoke with a sincere smile.
“···Call me ‘Hun’.”
This is my first self-introduction since I was born into the world.
***
Hoon closed the door and came out so that the girl could rest comfortably and let out a short sigh.
“I never thought it would turn out like this.”
Then, I slowly walked around the room and began to carefully look at where and what was there.
Although I was the owner in name only, this was actually my first time visiting this house in person, so it was absolutely necessary.
“But I’m glad I prepared in advance. After all, there’s nothing wrong with preparing everything in advance.”
This house was a secret safe house that he had prepared separately.
Although it was nothing compared to the well-fortified main residence on the outskirts of Seoul, it was a reasonable two-story house with everything you need, including a small garden.
‘And in the future, it will also be the base for this avatar, ‘Hun’.’

He scratched the back of his head once and flopped down on the sofa in the living room.
Then, I closed my eyes and began to reflect on the past along with my future plans.
‘At that time, after Hans found the crystal that contained that child…’
Hans tried several things with the crystal he had obtained.
Anyway, if you want to get any information, wouldn’t you have to wake up the person inside and talk to him?
However, the work was bound to encounter difficulties from the beginning.
‘If you touch it carelessly, something could go wrong with the child inside.’
The crystal was a kind of life support device.
The one who supported her life until the end in the environment of a destroyed world.
However, if you break the crystal and forcibly take out the girl inside, you may be exposed to a hostile environment…
‘I can’t take that risk.’
I wasn’t sure that even Hans would be able to completely block it.
That terrible environment was created when the laws that make up the world were twisted.
It didn’t matter much to Hans, who was an awakened undead, but in order to protect the natives who were inevitably bound by the laws of the world, preparations to the extent of being able to defy them were necessary.
While trying various methods and finding a solution.
He was able to realize one thing.
I don’t know why, but it seems that the crystal containing the girl can be transported to another dimension.
After that, it was all smooth sailing.
On a safe Earth, there was no need to be overly careful.
After taking the girl out of the crystal, what followed was Saint Heinrich’s divine power treatment using “individual projection.”
The blue crystal may not have been perfect, but he was so weak that he felt like he was going to run out of breath at any moment, so I tried to give him first aid…
I knew it then.
The fact that the girl was able to survive was not simply because of the crystal.
‘That physical condition was very similar to Kang Hwan-gye’s ‘Dragon Child’. ‘There was the intervention of a transcendent being from the stage of birth.’
Of course, it wasn’t quite the same.
If the dragon child was close to suffering by accepting the divine power to which he had no immunity, then the girl could be seen as someone who was born with too much courage and whose body could not withstand it.
Anyway, that meant only one thing.
‘It was that kid. A measure against destruction arranged by the god of the Cosiyas dimension. It is not a passive method like the dragon child, but is prepared as a dagger to more actively defeat the enemy.’
As the main god, who was about to be defeated, took direct action, the possibilities he had were beyond imagination.
Unlike the Dragon Child, which was spread out over many people, the remaining power would have been concentrated.
But that’s it.
The world could not endure until the girl shed her shell and grew up, and eventually it was completely destroyed, leaving her alone.

A failed world.
A possibility that withered away without being able to bloom.
In the end, he was destined to die alone in a world where even the main god had abandoned him.
But that’s it now.
‘You mean it’s in my hands?’
The corner of Hoon’s mouth twitched.
The very basis of existence is an adversary born to oppose the Lord of Heaven.
It’s like a lottery where the winner has already been decided.
How could you just leave something like that lying on the ground?
“Whoa, it looks like you suddenly became a nanny. “It will take some time to adjust to a completely different world.”
I thought about entrusting it to a subordinate organization, such as a clan, but I couldn’t just leave such a gem in the hands of someone else.
Above all, in order for her to grow properly, his own care was essential.
‘If I hadn’t been able to create a new avatar with good timing, I would have thought about managing it myself…’
In that sense, it could be seen as fate that 『Unique Skill Enhancement』, which I thought was about to be activated, moved to the next stage.
No matter how strong the body became, it was advantageous for him to make a choice with as little risk as possible.
I’ll have to go and see what happens later.
‘Furthermore, the work being done on Earth was so large that an avatar was needed to manage it. You can think of it as both a business and a business. If necessary, it can be deployed elsewhere at any time.’
He shrugged and got up from the sofa.
I was giving her time to be alone out of consideration for the inevitable chaos that was going on, but I had no intention of leaving her like that forever.
‘There are a lot of things I want to ask. If you want to use your time as efficiently as possible, you should at least prepare in advance.’
To take revenge on Beoncheonhoeju.
For ‘our’ aspirations.
***
A colorful, smoky interior.
“…The distortion has gotten bigger.”
Oracle, who was holding a hookah in his hand and looking into space with blurry eyes, frowned.
From experience so far, there was only one force capable of doing something like this.
“Is it Masquerade again…? “What on earth have you done?”
The plan to shake up Korea, which was presumed to be their base, was progressing step by step.
Some operations have already entered the implementation stage for a long time, although it is taking some time to be careful not to have a large impact on the causality rate.
However, in this situation, ripples began to appear as if a large rock had been dropped into the lake…
“···It’s ominous. “I hope there won’t be any major problems.”
She nervously chewed the cigarette in her mouth.
Unknowingly, I revealed my true intentions, which were unbecoming of a prophet.
