236 – People and Heroes (13)
Han Jaejoong glanced at the monster in front of him.
He who had been collecting gold for a great cause was now standing proudly with his entire body painted in gold. He doesn’t know if he will be happy.
When I think about it, it was a very long relationship.
A strange person who has been involved with Han Jae-joong since he first acted as a guardian. It’s been almost a year.
In a short period of time, Libra was presented with a lot of pain. He almost died many times, and faced similar crises many times.
Even if you knock it down, it will attack you again. Even stronger than before.
This persistent obsession and thoroughness was enough to instill anger in Han Jae-joong.
But now, for some reason, I don’t feel that angry.
‘Have you forgiven me?’
No, that is definitely not the case.
King of the underworld. He sold drugs, prostituted people, buried people, and trafficked their organs.
His life consisted only of the pain of others. What right does he have to forgive someone like that?
Hook! He threw up his fist. Starlight, the union of all six clones, had the power to match.
If the previous self-immolations were missiles, he was a bomb.
It was such concentrated firepower that it seemed as if even an ant could be reduced to ashes.
Watcher dodges his fist by flowing to the side. Suddenly, Libra’s arm was raised slightly. That was the moment when his fist was completely released.
Kwagwagwagwang!! A beam of light rose up into the sky, but there was no damage to the alley.
Watcher also looked extremely peaceful.
A slight wind flowed and shook the hem of his cloth.
‘I didn’t forgive you, so why am I so peaceful?’
Libra continued to swing his fist.
It wasn’t an animal’s instinct to hunt. He waved his arms wildly, like a child fighting, and as if showing off his strength. Of course, there was no calculation or plan in sight.
‘A child?’
Watcher tapped his arm with his wrist, just as he had just done. A movement that resembles catching a ball and bouncing it. The shock wave that flowed from Libra’s fist could not reach any life, soared into the distant sky and disappeared.
There were no cracks or scorches in the alley, which are common war marks.
‘Oh yeah, that’s it.’
Libra rushed forward, and the Watcher turned slightly to avoid the charge. Due to inertia, Libra lost her balance and fell and rolled on the ground.
The Watcher looked down at him.
‘No different from a child.’
From noble mtl dot com
He is ignorant, but he is arrogant because he thinks his world is everything. A foolish way of thinking that expects everything to go as planned.
That was that monster.
It may seem like a large drawing, but it is flashy on the outside and shallow on the inside. They lack detail and are easily swayed by emotions.
If I had been a little more careful, I would have been able to control more variables, but I was defeated by a moment of delusion and ended up doing everything wrong.
If the path had been good, there would have been a way to sympathize with him, but since most of his resources were someone’s blood and tears, there was nothing to sympathize with.
Han Jaejoong felt pitiful towards him. His size was like a mountain and his strength was like a storm, but his heart was like that of a child, so he couldn’t help but feel pathetic.
There is no anger.
“Is that the sacrifice you were talking about?”
“Proof… Sooooo….”
It was quite bizarre to see only one word being repeated like babbling.
The body was so flabby that its shape was unrecognizable, and although starlight surrounded the entire body, it was not brilliant, so it felt like looking at a luminous swamp.
I was symbolizing with my whole body the words of a person who chased his dream by sacrificing himself.
At first glance, it looked like a work of art.
“You’re doing really well.”
Libra rushed back, dragging her shaky body. She swung her arms wildly and roared, shooting out beams of light.
It was a mighty destruction.
In terms of speed, strength, and size, Libra had an advantage over the Watcher.
The unripe universe was feeble compared to the flash of the vast stars.
His majesty from so close was definitely overwhelming.
However, Libra’s light could not reach him.
“It’s not wrong to dream a dream that cannot come true.”
Each of his actions brought about destruction, but the Watcher turned each of his actions into nothingness.
His fists cross and destroy his fists, inserting a single sword into the roar to create silence, inserting darkness into the rays of light to cut a line.
If the action was even slightly wrong, the Watcher’s head was in danger of being blown off. However, without the slightest fear, he found an opening and turned the attack into vain.
Libra was furious that the attack did not work and swung her body even faster, but each time she did so, an opening appeared.
“But it is wrong to dream a dream that you cannot take responsibility for alone.”
The Watcher did not miss the gap and moved his feet lightly. Whoop, the distance narrowed in an instant. A fist landed on Libra’s abdomen. Bang! Libra’s body floated and flew through the sky as if hit by a huge pendulum.
“Starlight is not invincible.”
Libra’s flame. It easily penetrated the armor of flames imitating the power of the galaxy and delivered the impact.
“Your miracle is not omnipotent either. You always have to give something in return. The capital sacrificed for your proof… Since when was that free? “Since when did the blood and sweat shed to increase your capital belong to you?”
There is no such thing as omnipotent and invincible power in this world.
“You sacrificed others for the purpose of finding a just sacrifice, and ultimately sacrificed yourself as well.”
The conditions were the same for Libra.
“Even if you killed me here, the result wouldn’t have changed.”
The Watcher shook his hands. The flames and flesh attached to his fingers scattered into the air.
“I took the wrong route from the beginning. “You will never reach that proof in your life.”
And then he moved one step back.
“I almost did that too.”
The origin of the universe was void.
A ray of light burst from a place where there was nothing, and various colors bloomed starting from it.
It was the same for Han Jaejoong. The origin of that power was empty.
Force has no emotion, will, sense, or action; it simply exists.
However, it was clearly human will to create meaning by adding color to the empty blank page.
That one brush stroke separated a person from a hero.
Whoosh, air gathered from the moving footsteps. The cold that gathered in the alley and the heat scattered by Libra all came together and were consumed by his starlight.
What Han Jaejoong has is not the stars, but the universe.
A void that expands infinitely.
Because it is an infinite void, colors can be added infinitely.
And sometimes it changes, sometimes it becomes more intense, and over time it will eventually fade and disappear. But nothing was meaningless.
The entire process will become my life.
Han Jaejoong added color to the void.
First step. The first step was to step back.
The first color he chose was fear.
Fear of death and reverence for life. It is the fear of losing the dream and the fear of being eaten by the dream. It is a fear of suffering and a fear of peace.
I know all these fears, so I can achieve everything I want to do without being consumed by laziness.
The first thing to realize is that there was no shortage.
“I will not hold a memorial service.”
The most fundamental color, the color, was jet black. Dark, pitch black, like the background of the universe.
A star rises above it.
Now that I had realized enough, the next step was to move forward.
Next, I added my resolve.
Starlight gathered on the bridge that went forward.
Next, the understanding was added.
My feet were heavy, but my heart was light and I had no hesitation in moving forward.
Next, I added confidence.
Tap. The sound of footsteps echoes through the alley. Along with the sound of footsteps, the mysterious resonance of stars made the sky vibrate.
After that, take your time.
His progress was closer to a light walk rather than a sprint. He approached the enemy leisurely, with the wind, as if he were walking down a street at night.
Lastly, will.
And then it stopped tall right in front of the enemy.
“Show your will.”
Boom! He stamped his feet in place. Starlight gathered above the steps and formed a ring. It was a mysterious ring, like a halo of stars. It rotated around the bridge.
The color was golden.
Six stars floated in a small universe and shined brightly.
“I remember you in my universe.”
It was golden like the star of Libra.
The empty universe expands and stars bloom within it. The stars connected to each other to create a symbol. A gathering of newly blooming stars in an empty universe.
These were stars that were infinitely similar to Libra.
An endlessly growing universe does not simply mean its vast size. It also meant that the new starlight, the infinite mystery, would bloom anew within me.
“I was going to do that, but when I thought about it, your existence was too heavy and burdensome.”
The facial features of Libra, who was now covered in what looked like fire and oil, were not visible, but for some reason, her face seemed distorted.
Libra stretched out her hand. As if to say that it was originally his, he pressed a cruel hand towards him.
The Watcher raised his golden star-covered legs upward. A high spinning kick. His heel touched Libra’s head, causing an explosion.
Satellite supplementary angle.
It is false because it is not a star in this universe, but the stars, which are truer to him than anything else, came together as he walked and became one angle.
“Let’s get it all over with this one time.”
Boom!
With a kick, the Watcher spun around in a circle. The golden light that had been staying on the bridge dispersed and disappeared. The six stars that bloomed faded and disappeared.
At the same time, Libra also fell backwards.
“In the end, it’s either self-immolation or your own kick. Still, it’s different from last time.”
There were many changes.
“This is not Jaehyun.”
Rather than simply imitating the ideal, make sure that each and every action you take becomes your ideal.
That was the current special move.
Definitely kill.
The technology created to kill the opponent did not take Libra’s life that day, but it took his life today.
His special move that was recreated that day led to the special move that was realized today and took his life.
Because he was killed in the end, it was a sure death.
There wasn’t much difference between the beginning and the end.
“Proof….”
Libra, who had not yet reached the end of her life, staggered and crawled towards him.
“There is a just sacrifice….”
“There is no such thing.”
“Remember me…”
As the starlight disappeared from the body, the lumps covering Libra also evaporated into thin air. His face, covered in oil and flames, was revealed little by little.
“I sacrificed myself for you… I achieved such great growth… I blossomed the universe…”
His expression.
“The value of that sacrifice was as great as the heaviness of my existence…”
It looked like a smile.
“I don’t regret this sacrifice now… It was a just sacrifice in the end…”
With those last words, Libra exploded. The starlight soared into the sky as if it were a fireworks display.
Han Jae-joong thought about those words and uttered a word toward the spot where he died.
“Isn’t that just self-satisfaction?”
In the first place, it’s a sacrifice no one wants to make. I just acted like an asshole and it ended up being good.
“Well, there are many interpretations.”
Han Jaejoong turned around after saying those words.
It didn’t matter if the dead person glorified himself as a rare martyr. There are no words for the dead anyway. Except for exceptional wizards like White Davih.
No matter what Libra thinks of him, Jaejoong Han will remember Libra as an asshole.
**
After some time, Han Jaejoong had to reconsider Libra’s will.
“hahahaha.”
Starlight fluttered. The sand castle crumbled as if it had collapsed due to the waves and wind. A endless stream of light like grains of sand poured down to the ground.
Just as an old cart could barely move when tied to leather straps, the belt was also tied to leather straps and could barely move.
The circuit was completely broken, and sparks flew out from the broken part. The fever becomes uncontrollably strong.
Finish.
Puff pop! It exploded and was completely broken, leaving only some parts of the belt behind.
“This could also be interpreted in many ways.”
It was the moment when the obligations and contracts I had with Star completely ended.
Some will interpret it as freedom, others as force.
“Seolhwa, which side do you think you are?”
“Ugh… What the heck…?”
“No, I’m sorry for saying strange things to a sick person.”
Han Jaejoong carried Yun Seolhwa on his back and walked beyond his alley.
The chill caused by her magic was quite violent, but she could bear it.
For Yoon Seol-hwa, starlight fluttered like Han Jae-joong before the transformation was complete.
“I knew well, Libra, your level….”
Existence is heavy. That saying wasn’t there for nothing.
Even after his death, there was still a lot of work to be done. Just as greater gravity causes more distortion, the heavy monster disappeared leaving behind many distortions.
Yun Seol-hwa’s body was hot. But her breath was cold. Her starlight emanating from her contained the uneasiness of her monster.
The forced stimulant still remained in the body, making it even more severe.
Monsterization is in progress.
“I wanted to kill one more time….”
“Ugh… Is this my story…?”
“Are you crazy, why did I kill you? “It’s just about someone else.”
“Then it’s a good thing… I almost committed suicide… I did it…”
“That’s really fortunate.”
I’m glad I was able to correct what I said before there was a misunderstanding.
Han Jaejoong thought positively and moved his feet.
Beyond the alley, White Davich was waving his hand while looking at him.
