206 – Concept Collapse
Blue Sirius frowned as if he was offended when he heard the story.
“Don’t say that.”
It was an unpleasant subjunctive law.
“So, that means our senior led Jaejoong’s parents… to the death of civilians several times.”
Even after Sky Polaris died, the lion appeared. Every time it appeared, countless people died.
If there is someone behind the lion, it is no different from saying that he instigated its death.
The legendary great master killed the parents of his beloved. I didn’t want to hear that, even as a joke.
“This is nonsense. No, Polaris senior passed away in the first place. A body was also found. “I will not follow in the footsteps of Red Spica or Green Arcturus.”
It has to be that way.
Helios nodded his head as if he was sorry.
“Okay. That’s right. “I’m sorry, it was just my wild imagination.”
There was silence between them for a moment. Uncomfortable silence.
But there was no time to worry about that.
The deeper we went into Dark Matter, the stronger the heat became. My lips are dry and sweat is flowing like rain. The inside of the mouth is dry and stuffy. This is true even if the body temperature is automatically adjusted to a comfortable level through magic.
Getting closer to the lion.
Helios was sure of that.
Lion.
I’ve only heard of Helios, but today is my first time meeting him in person.
This is because they are lazy by nature, have a narrow range of action, and do not reveal themselves easily.
So far, he has appeared in the human city a total of three times.
When he first appeared, he was helpless. Just because it was in the city and disappeared, the rebar and rails bent, the asphalt melted, and the glass broke. The surrounding wooden buildings burned down, people within 500m died, and people within 1km were seriously injured.
The lion was only there for 5 minutes.
As soon as the magical girl arrived, the lion saw them and left.
The second appearance took place near Sky Polaris, which was torn apart from a long battle with Hercules.
He suddenly appeared after the battle between the two strongmen, which no one had been able to observe, ended.
But the lion returned calmly without any accident.
Sky Polaris remained silent about the reason.
The third appearance is after Sky Polaris disappears.
It happened suddenly near the bridge. This is also a short appearance. It only appeared for about two minutes.
However, in just two minutes, the bridge burned down and numerous people died.
A total of three appearances.
The lion’s abilities, which could be inferred from this, had only two limitations.
One, a lion can move through space at will.
Sudden appearance with no trace of movement.
It cannot be explained without the ability to move through space.
Two, the size of the lion’s mane can be freely adjusted.
A mane of fire the color of a galaxy. During its three appearances, its size was different each time. The degree of damage also varied proportionally.
The biggest damage is the first. After that, the damage was minimal.
Helios guessed based on these two abilities.
A lion with the ability to move through space and the intelligence to control strength, dared to reveal his power and began his movement.
The lion, who had no reason to advance, began to advance.

‘It’s a ridiculous imagination….’
Helios pondered over what he had said and suddenly remembered Sky Polaris’ speaking habits.
-‘Impossible is truly impossible. ‘There is nothing in this world that is impossible!’
The power of miracles for the first time. Is it because I have awakened to magic? She always denied the impossible. Nothing makes sense.
There is a possibility in anything.
‘Sir, what are you doing now?’
Both the first and second appearances were related to Sky Polaris. She checked Sky Polaris both times and backed off.
The third time, Sky Polaris did not exist.
‘What did you do to a child named Jaejoong?’
But I heard now that the parents of a child named Jaejoong Han died in an accident that day.
He is using the legacy of Sky Polaris.
Sky Polaris is definitely dead.
This is not a simple case of disappearance.
The body was found.
But her ability is precognition. Checking the future.
She has always been a person who liked to draw a big picture based on the future.
‘What on earth did you see?’
Even if she were dead now, wouldn’t her brushstrokes still exist?
Could it be that the picture is still being transmitted and is now controlling that monster?
Helios thought so.
“It’s hot….”
“Oh hoho, how lame it is that you have fire powers but are weak to heat. Strong like me… Leisurely… Ugh….”
“It’s too much.”
The heat has become unbearable. The distance from the lion is close. It will soon be visible to the naked eye.
“From now on, I will leave it up to each person to make their own judgment. “Maintain communication.”
The people currently gathered are only divine users or those with equivalent powers.
If divinity is gathered, the efficiency decreases. This is because the wider the range, the more damage it causes to each other.
This time, it is even more severe as fire magic users and ice magic users are gathered in one place.
So the method chosen was spread out.
“I will see you alive.”
Helios’ words as a signal.
The magic girls were scattered.
**
Hellfire is coming.
That was all I could think of.
The number of monsters gradually turning to ash is increasing. Half of the escaping monsters turned into ashes and disappeared.
Even considering that all of them were low-level monsters who did not make even a single star, it was an enormous number.
Just walking away without any effort caused massacre.
“Can contradiction control something like that?”
Odette muttered as she looked at the scene. The Watcher was about to nod his head in agreement, but stopped.
“…You never know.”
You never know. If it’s a contradiction, it somehow seems possible.
“Uh… I guess not?”
Odette pointed with her finger to a corner of the waves of refuge.
There…..
“I’m really going to die if this continues.”
There was a contradiction in running to the death and running away from the lion.
“I don’t think it’s something you wouldn’t know about, right?”
“I’m going to turn.”
Watcher covered his head. He’s still an unpredictable guy. Phew. I sighed deeply and turned my attention to Odette.
“Can you do me a favor?”
“Leave it to me.”
Shook. Odette disappeared with the wind. Instead, all I saw was a single butterfly. It was a commendation that looked similar to a butterfly.
Using the butterfly as a marker and moving her body, Odette quickly flew to Contrari’s side.
Shoot, shoo shoo shoo. Shush.
“You f*cking idiot, come here.”
After quickly catching the contradiction without a moment’s delay. He flew the butterfly again like before and returned to his original position.
“Here.”
Tuk. He grabbed Contrary’s head with one hand and threw it away. Dump. Contradiction sat down helplessly.
“Wow, did you see oppa? I have really big hands! “At this rate, I’ll catch a watermelon.”
“Congratulations.”
“If I come back to my height here, I will feel ashamed…”
Ayoon Jo sighed as she imagined her poor body, which was very different from the body she had when she transformed.
“Don’t be too disparaging. “I like your body.”
“Oh, that’s such a perverted thing to say. Anyway, thank you.”
“Everyone, it’s nice to have a friendly conversation. “Wouldn’t it be nice if you could tell me why you kidnapped me?”
I almost forgot. The Watcher turned his head to see the contradiction.
“For your information, I don’t recommend staying here for too long. This building is also old. “Maybe the closer it gets, the more it will burn and collapse.”
“Thank you for the advice. But don’t worry. “I’ll ask you a few questions and then throw you back around the lions.”
“Be merciless. “Are you planning on killing me?”
What is death? Someone who will live well on his own. Watcher snorted softly.
“Why is it running wild? And why were you nearby?”
“It’s long… But I’ll explain briefly.”
Mosun stood up shaking off the dust and ashes.
“There was friction between me and Libra, and in the process, I brought in the lion to win.”
“You’re crazy. Wait, how do you know the lion’s location?”
Lions are animals famous for always hiding themselves. Guessing its location is not simple.
“This person lives in a different dimension, slightly different from our world.”
“Two dimensions?”
The contradiction of copying an ability is that the moment you copy the other person’s ability, you can gain insight into that power. The lion’s secret, which was all shrouded in doubt, was useless in front of him.
“Yes. Would you understand if I were to call you Saja’s own Goldilocks zone? But it’s not like the Goldilocks zone. The moment he goes to another dimension, he becomes unrecognizable both there and here.”
It creates a gap in a space that is out of sync with reality and hides itself. Because it is a gap between reality and this dimension, no one is aware of it.
“He was always there. We just don’t see it. But sometimes, when he comes out of this dimension, he suddenly appears in front of me as if he had teleported.”
“…Indeed. “Is it possible to use that to make unexpected movements?”
The question of the lion’s ability to move through space has been resolved.
“But he was reluctant to go far away. There is always a designated place to rest. So he went there and did battle. “If something goes wrong in my front yard, I won’t be able to stand it.”
After sorting out Libra, they planned to run away.
I thought that since the beast was lazy, there would be no need to go to the trouble of chasing it.
But in the end, that perception was wrong.
“But for some reason. He didn’t back down. He continued to follow in the direction I was going. No matter how much I ran away, it seemed like there would be no end to it, so I tried to confront it head on. But it was difficult. “It’s a physical issue.”
We faced off with Libra for nearly ten days, and fought with Lion for nearly three weeks. The miracle of the contradiction principle, which can even copy an opponent’s wounds, of course also copied physical strength.
Unfortunately, there was nothing I could do about mental fatigue.
“So this is the way to escape.”
“So you are the cause?”
“Maybe.”
There was only one conclusion.
“Odette, throw this guy back.”
“Yes~”
If you sacrifice this guy to the lion, everything will be resolved.
“Please save me. “If I go now, I’m sure I’ll lose.”
Contradiction grabbed the Watcher’s leg.
“That’s good for me.”
The Watcher trampled on his head.
“As expected, my brother. “Your internet search history is correct.”
As Jo Ayun saw Han Jae-joong trampling on contradictions so cruelly, she recalled her past search history for pornographic sites.
As expected, Han Jaejoong seemed to be a sadist.
‘…Should I know that in advance?’
Never for yourself, but for Yun Seol-hwa! A night out between lovers must be important! Jo Ayun made an excuse and thought of things to search for when she went back today.
Today’s work is over anyway. Throw this damn thing in front of the lions and it will all be over.
“So that’s a misunderstanding….”
“I have a suggestion. I’m sure you’ll like it too…”
“I finally found it!”
Just before Odette let out a butterfly and presented the contradiction to the lion, someone’s loud shout was heard.
“Silver Luna?”
As she asked that question, a butterfly flew out of her hand.
Tuk. When I lightly touched the contradiction, his body disappeared like melting snow. Instead, a contradiction appeared near the lion left behind earlier.
“Ah.”
I thought the contradiction was trying to say something. Odette was embarrassed. But that was only for a moment, and soon the smile widened.
If the lion kills the contradiction, today’s hardships will end.
The corners of Jo Ayun’s mouth drew a large curve.
“Hey, over there! “Do you… remember?”
“Of course.”
“Thank goodness…! Well, I came back from Japan to see you… You might think it’s burdensome… But it was such a big meeting in my life… So… Ah, I saw you defeating that monster of contradiction earlier. It was impressive…! How can you be so majestic… Oh, no, it’s not this… That’s…”
“It’s okay, speak slowly.”
“I wanted to say thank you. Thanks to you, I got my family back. The hero who almost gave up once didn’t have to give up either. It’s all thanks to you. So… Me too…”
Han Jae-joong also regains his life and has a happy ending! What a great day this is. How long has it been since I faced such a powerful enemy that I felt so comfortable?
Singlebunggle. Jo Ayun’s happiness level reached perfect score.
“Please let me be by your side too! “As happy as I am to have my family back, I want to serve you!”
Jo Ayun’s happiness level has hit rock bottom.
“What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about?”
“Hi! “Yes, four?”
Silver Luna trembled at the sharp voice that came from behind her.
As she was flying towards the lion, she found the Watcher.
My heart was beating loudly.
As soon as she saw the Watcher, the enemy named Lion was erased from her mind and she cut off communication between the magical girls and rushed at him.
She charged in without any countermeasures. It might break later, but who cares?
It would be great if I could convey the gratitude and request I had in mind in advance.
It should have been like that….
“What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about?”
I never thought I would be territorial. Odette, presumed to be Watcher’s colleague, expressed strong opposition.
“Well, I wasn’t talking to you, but to my benefactor…”
“Huh?!”
She mustered up the courage to object, but was quickly silenced.
The relationship that used to be like a dog being hit and beaten has been reversed.
All of her fear towards Silver Luna turned into hostility. Jo Ayun was angry. What a colleague. How can you get that position for free?
‘I am the only one on my brother’s side.’
Krrr. Jo Ayun became very grumpy, like a Chihuahua wary of outsiders, and bit Silver Luna.
“You’re covered in sweat and your clothes are sticking to you… and you’re asking for a favor like that? “Aren’t you trying to seduce me with your obscene body?”
“Well, that’s s*xual harassment….”
“What?”
“Oh, it’s nothing….”
Is it because I took off all the emotional armor I had put on before the Watcher? Normally, I would have responded with confidence, but I couldn’t respond to abusive comments due to my stubborn temperament.
“Hey. Leave it at that. And you too, stop giving up. I also have the same opinion as Odette. A magical girl serving a monster, what an act of prostitution. Don’t sell yourself cheap. “Stop talking nonsense and just get out of here.”
“Well, that… Please, reconsider…!”
“As expected, oh… No, Watcher! “Damn it I believed it!”
I was appalled. Han Jaejoong broke into a cold sweat. It became like this to protect the heroes, so does it make sense to control them in reverse?
“I will do anything, please…!”
“The problem is that you do anything. I just did what I had to do for you. Nothing more, nothing less. Gratitude is good, but be patient with more than that. “I am in no position to dominate you.”
Really. If you are not careful, it will be judged as a violation of duty and you will be killed by the system.
It was an offer I could not accept no matter what.
“The work will be over soon anyway. You can now announce your victory to your comrades…”
The Watcher turned his eyes in the direction of the lion.
I planned to watch with interest as Mo-sun, sweating profusely, took his attack and sank.
“…?”
From noble mtl dot com
Something was strange.
The appearance of contradiction was everywhere but nowhere.
What the f*ck, where is the contradiction? Han Jaejoong turns his eyes here and there.
Suddenly, I felt as if I had locked eyes with a lion.
The lion is looking at me with burning eyes. A burning gaze that threatens to turn your bones to ashes.
Hellfire gathers around the mouth of the beast.
The mane has become even more swollen. A huge mane sways like a galaxy.
Quarrr!!! The lion roared. The hellfire that gathered around his mouth poured out like a tidal wave. The direction is, of course, towards him.
[Come here.]
Someone’s voice faintly passed by my ear. A sweet, seductive voice.
It wasn’t anyone’s voice here.
The origin was the belt.
But it was completely different from Belt’s voice I had heard so far. A voice like a girl, without any mechanical sounds.
“What is this….”
“It wasn’t.”
After that, an urgent voice rang in my ears. It was a familiar voice. Contradiction’s unique gentle voice. His words, which were always relaxed, were impatient today.
“It wasn’t me. “The lion wasn’t targeting me.”
“Huh?! Uh, where did you come from…”
“As I was running away, it entered the gap in the other dimension and came right after me, so I thought it was targeting me. But no. Just now, I copied that person’s abilities and entered a gap in another dimension. This time he didn’t chase me.”
Contradiction was like a lion with a galaxy ring around its neck.
“It wasn’t me. I thought you were chasing me. It was just a coincidence. By chance, the direction I’m running away from overlaps with the direction he’s heading… Listen carefully. “His purpose is not mine.”
He muttered like a scholar who had solved a difficult problem.
“It’s you.”
Mosun threw back the Silver Luna he was holding and grabbed Watcher’s shoulder.
“It was you. I didn’t know it would be like this. hahahaha. “This is a bit troublesome.”
Contradiction, who kept muttering something as if possessed, soon turned his head and saw the approaching flames.
“I will protect you. No matter what happens. Be careful. And, don’t die.”
At the same time as those words were said, Contradiction came down from the building and headed toward the flames.
“…What is he? “Why are you following me?”
“I wanted to say that line….”
“Agari. “I’ve already done something similar.”
“Really?!”
While Odette and Silver Luna were talking, Han Jaejoong was thinking deeply.
‘A lion is targeting me? Why? For what? What is the voice of the belt earlier? ‘What does that beast want from me?’
Cugung. The place I stepped on shook slightly.
“Ah.”
As contradictory warned earlier, the building began to collapse.
Along with the collapsing building, Han Jaejoong’s thoughts also collapsed.
“I don’t f*cking know.”
The concept also collapsed slightly.
