Episode 446
Episode 142. Soluto (2)
At first glance, it seemed that Soluto was maintaining his ego intact.
However, Yuma had a hunch that the time left for him was not long. The energy of the void had completely consumed him.
A state in which the mind is lucid for a very short time just before death.
In other words, the current state of Soluto was like that.
[Yes, I lost a lot of weight. Because he who is devouring me is the god who controls hunger as well as emptiness. I got it wrong.]
Soluto smiled lightly at the joke.
No, it just felt like a smile. The darkness of emptiness filled both the eye sockets and the mouth, making it impossible to recognize the expression.
I had never really thought about meeting Soluto again like this.
He knew from before that he was Hwa’s slave… but in the first place, he never imagined that Hwa would spread his influence on the public tax so quickly.
Also, the Solto that Yuma had seen never felt like a slave to Hwa.
Although I was able to use the power of the void and open the dimension of the void. Even so, Soluto
seemed like a dragon with a clear ‘self-will’.
Although Soluto’s actions while taking the body of Rugal and serving as the emperor of the East cannot be regarded as right. At least he was the person who stopped Hwa the hardest.
Soluto, who fought alongside Yuma to contain the war between the East and the West and prevent the massacre of Amanzo, eventually became an apostle of Hwa.
For Yuma, it was a very regrettable result.
[It doesn’t make sense. Still, I’m glad you’re not too late. It’s not easy to stay sane.]
Somehow, it was Yuma who saw the last of Mantu from Soluto.
“Can’t you turn yourself back?”
Yuma said with a hard face.
[Yes. Whoa, who made me like this.]
Ha.
I expected it, but a sigh came out.
It was because there was only one option left for Yuma if he couldn’t restore the solution to its original state.
[Yuma.] “Tell me, Soluto.”
[I have a feeling that there is no more light in this world.] “Is it a story about the future of the world or the existence or non-existence of Geil?”
[both. The former is a setback from despair, and the latter is a conclusion derived from facts.]
Yuma’s pupils widened.
Soluto just declared that there is no ‘Gile’. He also had some guesses.
If, on the contrary, he was a god who cared for humans and wanted to bring peace to the world after regaining his power.
It was because there was no way that Rizol was behaving like that.
[It seems that the light I worshiped completely disappeared at some point. I can feel it. The advent of Hwa… was actually predicted from the moment the light disappeared.]
“I don’t know that Zeil has disappeared, but I can’t agree with Hwa’s coming. He will not be able to devour this land.”
Soluto let out an empty laugh. His figure as he trembled and giggled low seemed so small.
[Yuma… The world will perish.]
“It’s the last conversation we’ll have as comrades-in-arms, so why do you keep saying weak or unlucky things?
disappointingly.”
[I am also letting you know that you are special. The world will surely perish and it cannot be stopped.]
“That must come when that time comes..
[Me too.]
Soluto lowered his long, dark neck and brought it close to Yuma.
[I also thought so.
Fate can be changed by choice, and the irresistible providence can also be changed by beings outside the realm.]
Yuma didn’t answer and fixed his eyes on his empty eye sockets.
The darkness shimmering in it felt like Hwa’s face.
[So I put my hopes on you.
If it were you who was recognized by the sword of death and rose to the throne of the Demon God. I mean it might be able to stop the void. But look at this.]
Swoop…
Darkness began to bloom on the land that formed the island behind Soluto.
Yuma was startled and had no choice but to bounce back without realizing it, but Soluto just looked down at Yuma.
The reason why Yuma was so surprised that she kicked herself was no different.
This is because the darkness spreading like paint on blank paper is completely erasing one side of the island.
The land is pierced with holes like cheese. It was a scene that could not be explained by common sense phenomena such as destruction or rapid weathering.
It wasn’t just the land that was changing that way.
There were holes like that in the air. It was the same shape as when the dimension was opened, but it made my head dizzy from the extreme sense of difference that was incomparable to it.
‘Even though I’ve heard what happens when the void covers the world… I can’t feel the reality at all.’
After sighing once, Yuma thought.
A feeling of vomiting came over me, and the blood in my body seemed to cool quickly.
As the void manifested, it was not directly affected by it, but because of a sense of alienation.
Great Evil or Abyss.
Even words like that couldn’t express the void that was now blooming behind Soluto’s back.
[A handful of dirt, a few chunks of sky, and a few colors. You have just been completely erased from this world. You don’t have to tell me.]
“You did that on purpose to show off that bastard’s power?”
[no way. Just coincidentally, my ego started to completely collapse just now, and his power started to spread.]
“What is that!”
[There won’t be time to say a proper goodbye. Eat my body with the sword of death, Yuma. If you want to delay the end even for a day.]
‘The void is originally like that. Premonitions are meaningless, have no beginning and no end. Just like now.’
Soluto’s behind-the-scenes words were heard not as voices, but as strange voices that spread through the air.
“Soluto!”
That was the end of Soluto.
Yuma shouted his name several more times, but there was no answer.
And after a while, Yuma has no memory of ‘Soluto’. I could feel the fact that it was quickly being erased in my head.
not exactly.
They tried to be ‘erased’ by the power of Hwa. An invisible authority was oppressing Yuma.
If someone other than Yuma were standing here right now, he would not have been able to hold on for even a moment and would have forgotten Soluto.
Right now, what was protecting Yuma from the power of Hwa was her unique aura. He did not act on his own will to unfold, but the energy of fire and ice and lightning was rising arbitrarily.
Just like soldiers standing up to protect the king.
And the unique aura stretched more fiercely than ever.
A semicircle of fire covered the entire island in an instant, and lightning flashed like mad in it.
And countless ice particles covered Yuma’s face.
at that time.
The voice of Hwa, manifested in Soluto’s body, resounded.
[Do you think you can stop me?]
As soon as he heard that voice, Yuma felt his burning head settle down.
It was comfortable.
The thought that it would not be too bad even if it disappeared like this was enough to dominate my mind for a while.
It shouldn’t be.
You shouldn’t feel comfortable with this, and you shouldn’t think that it won’t be bad if you disappear.
So Yuma decided to deny his voice. I was determined not to let him weigh me down any longer.
At that moment, Arilla was summoned and the perfect descent of the demon from the underworld began.
Unique auras that guarded Yuma. The energy of red, white, and blue was entangled to create a chaotic scene, and the ayeolla in the middle was torn to both sides and covered Yuma.
‘This… is the feeling I had when I descended from Rimt.’
However, unlike in Rimt, Yuma’s human body was still standing upright on the island. Covered in arilla and stained dark.
Instead, behind Yuma, the figure of a demon from the underworld stood tall enough to cover the entire island.
complete descent.
Of course, like when he descended from Rimt, he knew that an endless desire for destruction would arise. For some reason, Yuma was able to retain the personality of ‘Human Yuma Drake’.
It was because even the demon god of the underworld’s desire for destruction was sucked into the power of the void caused by Hwa.
[I don’t know why the sudden advent happened. Anyway, it’s good. I’m having a lot of trouble because of you.]
Since the real Advent took place, of course there were no restrictions on intervention.
The current Yuma has the power to destroy the world with a single finger. Even beings like grandmasters and ogres can be easily shot and killed.
Even so, Yuma instinctively realized that he couldn’t kill Hwa.
‘I’m a complete Advent, and he’s not even a Kang Rim… He’s just a temporary manifestation. Can’t even hit me?’
It was a shock.
A divine shock or something like this made it impossible for a fight to be established in the first place. The fortunate thing was that he took a step back, as if he couldn’t handle the demons of the underworld with only Hyeonhyun.
[Why do you want to block something that has already been decided?] Hwa asked again.
[Why are you so anxious to eat the world? Can’t you just leave it alone for a bit? What’s the point of having a stronger power after dropping them all into the fucking void!]
Unlike other gods, Hwa was a god whose power grew stronger as he was forgotten. In other words, it means that he is the strongest god when ‘nothing exists’ in the world.
And Yuma, from the moment he first heard about it from Krissa in Intsubikan until now. I couldn’t figure out Hwa’s intentions at all.
Amanzo Rizol Sekmeira.
The various transcendental beings he has ever dealt with or is still fighting with had clear purposes.
Amanzo and Sekmeira wanted to dominate the royalties, and Rizol seemed to have the purpose of restoring Light. In reality, he wants to reign as a god in a world safe from Hwa.
But Hwa’s case was different.
He’s just trying to erase the world.
[More Power, More Void.
That doesn’t mean anything to me. I just flow.]
“Is there any reason to destroy the world? It’s because I’m really answering a bit. Why are you doing this?”
A casual tone of voice, as if appealing to a friend.
Yuma was genuinely curious. Why the hell is that crazy god like this?
Heuwa did not answer for a moment, then raised his head and said:
[The wind does not blow for a reason, and the waves do not rush for a purpose. The same goes for me.]
“Is that… is that all?”
[That’s all for you too.]
It was a tantrum-like attitude.
