176. My will 1
{Is there something you want to ask?}
“Yes. There are many things to check.”
There is only one reason Kang Seung-hyun fought through all these hardships.
It was to get information from Wismel.
‘Whatever it is, it’s fine, so I have to extract information about the manager or dimension movement.’
This is because the manager cannot be trusted at all, and if there is something to do with him, this side will also need their own bargaining card.
‘It’s not my hobby to deal with gods, but now Wismel owes me a debt.’
Just as humans pay a price for receiving help from gods, so divine beings must pay a price for receiving help from humans.
Kang Seung-hyun intends to take the price as information.
{Sure, kid. It’s your request, of course you have to do it.}
Wismel looked at Kang Seung-hyun for a moment and then nodded with a soft smile.
{Tell me anything I can answer. Because you are the hero who saved me and Tracotti.}
“What I want to ask is…”
Rebecca caught the eye of Kang Seung-hyun, who was about to bring up the story. Rebecca was collecting Pengrill’s body with Kim Ho-jung.
‘…Mr.
I’m busy so I won’t mind this, but just in case.
Seunghyun Kang glanced at the two and said.
“I want to keep it a secret from others. We move the place so that the two of us can talk separately.”
{Okay. Wait a minute.}
Exactly!
slither.
When Wismel snapped his fingers, a small protective shield spread around the two of them.
‘It’s a protective shield…’
Tak-tak-tak!
Kang Seung-hyun knocked on the silver glory and made a sound
[Incision]
I got it!
Attacked the barrier using a skill.
Nonetheless, seeing no reaction from the outside, one performance seems certain.
‘As expected, God is God.’
This barrier did not simply have a soundproofing effect, but was a pseudo-subspace that completely blocked outside interference.
{Would this be enough?}
“That’s good.”
Kang Seung-hyun, who was looking around the barrier, nodded and opened his mouth.
“I don’t want to ask anything great. Did Wismel-sama know that I came from another dimension?”
Earlier, Wismel used the word ‘another world’ when referring to Kang Seung-hyun.
It means that he knows that he is a dimension mover.
“I ask straight forward. With your power, can you send me beyond the Azul continent… to my hometown?”
{…To transcend the dimension, you need the power of a divine being. But now I’m too weak.}
When casting dimension shift, the larger the size of the dimension you want to cross, the more power is consumed.
So, it is possible to cross subspaces such as dungeons with a small amount of power, but to go to a completely different universe requires tremendous power.
{I can even break through the dimensional wall, but I can’t guarantee that I can safely send you back to your hometown.}
“Is that so?”
It was expected, but still impossible.
No matter how divine beings are, it seems that a poor god like Wismel would have a hard time crossing the dimension.
“Then ask for something else. Can I go back if I ask another god with great power?”
{Hmm… That sounds like it would be difficult.}
In order to move to a specific dimension when moving dimensions, you need the coordinates of that dimension.
Of course, to go to Earth, you need the coordinates of the Earth, and finding the coordinates itself isn’t that difficult…
{It’s a very short time by our standards, but not short by human standards. At least hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years.}
“Hundreds of years?”
The problem was that it took a long time to find.
It is only a fleeting moment by the standard of divine existence.
“Then there is no way to go back, is there?”
{That’s not right. Are you a being called from another dimension? The entity that summoned you must know the coordinates of your homeland.}
In order to bring a being from another dimension, you must know the coordinates of that dimension.
In other words, the only being who can send dimension movers to Earth is the manager who brought them directly.
‘Yeah, somehow they said that no one went back.’
It’s already been three years since the dimension movers were abandoned on the Azul continent. Someone must have asked how to return to Earth while acting as a subordinate of a divine being.
‘It would be one of them. Either they are still looking for the coordinates of the Earth, or they are too lazy to find the Earth, so they blow it up to a similar dimension.’
This makes sense that no one has ever returned to Earth.
‘In the end, in order for me to return to Earth, I have no choice but to cooperate with the bastard manager…’
To be honest, from the beginning Kang Seung-hyun’s goal was to defeat the manager rather than returning to Earth.
In the first place, life on the Azul continent was more suitable than Earth, and because of his personality, he couldn’t just leave the guy who dragged himself on his own.
‘But I promised something.’
Seunghyun Kang took something out of his inventory.
It was a smartphone with a cracked LCD screen, an item that could not be found on the Azul continent.
‘I’ll have to go back to Earth.’
Kang Seung-hyun, who was still looking at his smartphone, closed his eyes and organized his thoughts.
“Wizmel-sama, if I somehow find out the coordinates of my hometown, can I go back through another god?”
{of course. If you only know the coordinates, you should be able to find it easily.}
“I see…”
It means that you don’t need help from the manager if you just get the coordinates.
‘I’ll have to cooperate until I get the coordinates.’
Seunghyun Kang put his smartphone in his inventory.
Although not much has changed, I felt better because I got new information.
{Do you have any more questions?}
“Hmm, actually, I was going to ask this first… How did you interfere with the status window?”
Kang Seung-hyun has encountered all sorts of beings over the past three years, but he hasn’t even encountered a guy who can see the status window, let alone intervene in it.
In the first place, it seemed that the existence of the status window itself was not known.
‘But Wismel used my status window to implement his power as a skill and sent it to me.’
Even a traveler in the same dimension couldn’t see other people’s status windows.
{Ah, that’s called the status window. I probably wouldn’t have been able to touch it under normal circumstances. It looks like a system created by a being with great power.}
Wismel also didn’t seem to know what a status window was.
{But the reason I was able to interfere is simple. Because I was registered in the ‘status window’.}
Kang Seung-hyun registered Wismel’s keepsake [Wizmel’s left hand] in the status window.
In other words, Wismel was able to interfere with the status window because she was both a divine being and a part of the status window system.
{That’s why I was able to help you.}
“To make God part of the system.”
When you think about it, it’s a pretty terrifying ability.
It’s something that no divine being has ever done before.
“What the hell is that manager’s identity?”
Seunghyun Kang muttered while drinking stamina.
Whatever it is, he won’t be an ordinary guy.
“Ah, it wasn’t registered when I put in other relics.”
Kang Seung-hyun took out Kirkarashtel’s orb.
I put this in and out of my inventory several times, but [Kirkarastel’s Roulette] never came out.
“Is there any reason?”
[Summons Freea’s Crossbow.]
When you register it on the status window, the only items that appear on the roulette are [Fria’s Crossbow] and [Wizmel’s Left Hand].
{Is my left hand the last item I left before disappearing?} After
thinking for a moment, Wismel opened his mouth.
{Inside this lies my will. I used this remaining will to communicate with you earlier.}
“God’s will?”
{This crossbow is similar.}
Wismel examined the crossbow and orb carefully.
{It’s faint, but the will of the divine being is asleep. But this orb is an ordinary holy relic imbued with the power of a god. Isn’t that why?}
“That means…”
In other words, when you put it in the status window, the only item that could obtain a roulette was a holy relic containing the will of God.
{To be precise, it’s the will of a forgotten god. Divine beings leave holy relics containing their will right before they disappear from the world.}
The moment Wismel said that,
pat!
[Accomplishment: Relics of □ㅎ□□]
[Achieved when acquiring the traces of □ㅎ□□]
[Achievement: Relics of □ㅎ□□]
[Relics left by □ㅎ□□] Accomplished.]
An achievement window popped up in front of my eyes
[Achievement: Relic of a Forgotten God]
[Achieved when obtaining the Traces of a Forgotten God.]
[Achievement achieved: Relics of a Forgotten God]
[Achieved when obtaining a relic left by a forgotten god.]
All the letters that had been hidden for so long were revealed.
At the same time, a new message was added to both achievements.
[Relic containing God’s will]
[Relic containing God’s will]
‘I roughly expected that the hidden letter was a forgotten god, but I never thought it would be an item containing the will of a forgotten god.’
With this, I was able to know the truth of roulette.
The manager was collecting the will of the god that was embedded in the item.
{Seeing that my will weakens every time you use the roulette, I wonder if it is absorbing the will of the relic.} If the
dimension mover continues to use the roulette, the will of the relic will gradually weaken and eventually disappear completely. .
“Why would you do that?”
{I don’t even know that much.}
Wismel shook his head in reply.
He said he had never heard of a divine being who could gather the will of another god.
“Thank you for letting me know.”
{I’m glad I was helpful, child.}
I don’t know the exact reason, but I got a glimpse of the administrator’s purpose.
The guy was collecting the will of God in the holy relic by spreading adventurers.
‘Certainly, if you want to do something like this, it’s easier to subcontract than to do it yourself.’
But some questions remain.
What was the reason for gathering the will in the first place and why did they leave the native slaves of Azul continent and elect slaves from another dimension?
‘Anyway, he’s a suspicious guy.’
Seunghyun Kang clicked his tongue and thought of the manager.
A being who doesn’t know what he’s doing even now.
“I guess I just have to ask you this one last time. What happened to Tracotti in the past?”
Apparently, she was attacked by someone and made the extreme choice of sacrificing herself to protect Tracotti.
It is unknown who it was and why it happened.
“Looking at Wismel-sama’s wrists being cut off, it looks like he must be a divine being.”
{It’s the past…}
Wismel touched his head with an anguished face.
{I’m sorry, but I also have hazy memories of that part. Maybe it’s because of the unstable resurrection.}
“Is that so?”
{But I definitely remember this. The existence that fought with me. He was a deity named ‘Natekar Leah’}
“Natekar Leah?”
It was a name Kang Seung-hyun had heard.
