Episode 772
: Space is different from crossing time.
You feel as if you are being swept away by a rough ocean current through your fingers, and unknown knowledge appears and scatters.
It is the madness behind the world that would make any ordinary person go crazy just by knowing about it.
It felt like I was slipping through something dark and muddy, like watching the banned book Divorcee.
‘Is this the price of death?’
There is no way to know.
However, I thought it wasn’t a bad idea to gain a little knowledge as long as it wasn’t too crazy.
The same chemical substance can be either medicine or poison depending on how you use it.
It’s not knowledge that’s bad. The person who uses it.
In an unknown space, Jin Cheonhee learned a little more about how to use her supernatural abilities.
‘You shouldn’t move too much. Because you have to pay that much. Just enough to go outside the mountain.’
In a way, it is similar to witchcraft.
Can I do well? I’m not sure. But if you control it wrongly, you have to lose a lot.
At that moment, it transcends space. Pass it over and go over it again.
The rough sea becomes a river, and the river becomes a valley.
In the feeling of being swept away, I heard countless whispers.
However, I couldn’t understand anything, and the moment I concentrated, I felt like I was going crazy.
‘Why am I the only one paying such a big price?’
If you think about it differently, an ability that only activates after death could be considered closer to immortality, but I didn’t know what I had to lose next.
And a warm sensation came to my solar plexus.
-are you okay. everything will be alright.
I could feel the gem becoming brighter and the causality factor relaxing.
-Because the sins you committed and the good you did go together.
Tak –
Someone grabbed Jin Cheon-hee’s hand. The hand was not one.
Countless hands began to grab him and pull him back to reality.
The countless connections he had made in Gangho pulled him back to reality.
“Wow!”
The first thing Jin Cheon-hee saw was the moon.
It was also a huge moon that filled the field of vision.
The moment she saw the moon, Jin Cheon-hee’s thoughts became that of a child.
It wasn’t the power of Xuanyuan Zhendan Xingong.
It is basic human intuition itself.
The next thing I felt was cold air.
It was outside. A clear wind, not tens of millions of pounds of rock.
And gravity.
I feel my body being swept downward.
‘You have to fall…’
However, there is not a single ounce of inner strength.
The broken limb came back, but it didn’t seem to revive the inner energy.
Die!
The moment she was about to close her eyes, someone grabbed the back of Jin Cheon-hee’s neck and spun her around in their arms.
“Hyung… how?”
“Oh Ha-Ryun.”
widely!
Yeo Ha-ryun lands on the floor.
A quiet sound, like a feather landing after falling from a dizzying height.
Thanks to this, Jin Cheon-hee was not shocked at all.
When I looked around, I saw Rakshasha’s army and demonic cultists.
There are countless members of the Demonic Cult as well.
What I saw among those demonic cultists was Ilkana.
‘You said the number of people has decreased a bit, but have they added more in the meantime?’
Even though Magyo was digging up coriander from the field, recruiting staff in the meantime was a different matter.
‘Ilkana is an excellent tactician.’
Even bookmakers have areas in which they are good and areas in which they are lacking.
Although Ilkana may have some shortcomings in strategy and tactics, he was unrivaled in mercenary skills and ambush distribution.
It occurred to me that it might be the influence of the assassination group she had worked with in the past.
Yeo Ha-ryun said.
“My brother is resting. “Ilkanaga has rescued the Demon Phantom Troupe and I will take care of everything.”
While saying that, he put the black pill in his mouth and chewed it.
Yeo Ha-ryun laughs cruelly as she feels her inner strength building up in an instant.
A tremendous sense of elation.
Kuggggggg –
A thousand-year-old star that ate a magic pill.
Even Seongju began to feel pressured by the pressure he created.
That wasn’t all.
“Oh my brother. Will it end in blood death like this? This is why only schemers die. Gaijin (開陳)!”
Following Ilkana’s orders, the demonic cultists began to spread out their ranks in perfect order.
The unique method of the Demonic Cult.
Black and white demon camp.
The Demonic Cult masters followed orders and carried out their battle in perfect order, so much so that the sky trembled with their momentum.
Yeo Ha-ryun said.
“I will destroy evil until the last one.”
Seongju grabbed a weapon against Yeo Ha-ryun.
“evil? That’s right. We have all given up being human. “But I will do whatever it takes to save my people in this crazy world.”
Seongju’s expression looked sad, but I could feel his resolve strengthening again.
The opponent is the main force of the Demonic Cult.
Since Yeo Ha-ryun recovered, it was obvious that whoever won would suffer a major blow.
A tense situation on the brink.
At that time, Jin Cheon-hee burns a piece of internal energy that he had just recovered.
“Everyone stop—-!!”
At that sound, everyone flinched, their movements stopped, and even life fell apart.
A miracle created by just one piece of effort.
Everyone looks at Jin Cheonhee in surprise.
It was a nice peace.
Jin Cheon-hee got down from Yeo Ha-ryun’s arms.
“Ha-Ryun. To you, are these evil?”
“It is evil and hypocrisy. “They are not facing their sin at all.”
A place where you run away, run away, run away.
It was the island of oblivion.
It was a flower of evil that Yeo Ha-ryun could not tolerate.
Jin Cheon-hee spoke to Seongju.
“Lord Seong. “Your top priority is to keep the people of the castle alive, right?”
“exactly.”
Jin Cheon-hee took a deep breath.
“Then let’s do it like this.”
“hmm?”
“Get your memories of the night back.”
“…What is that…?!”
Jin Cheon-hee looked at the moon.
The full moon was like the round back of a child’s head.
The child of the castle resisted Jashi’s spell.
The child himself was not even aware that he had resisted witchcraft.
All Rakshashas there do not attack the lord’s son.
Even though I was irrational, I just avoided it.
Even though the child’s body is no different from that of an ordinary person.
“All magic is based on laws, causes, and causes. “You used your own son as a wedge to erase the memories of the people of the city.”
“…How do you do that?!”
Seongju’s eyes widened.
“I wasn’t sure at first either. But even though it was heterogeneous, it was too heterogeneous. I realized it when Baekcheon-gun exploded the memories he had shown me and the soul he had been gathering to commit self-destruction. “I wonder where the child’s soul went.”
Baekcheon-gun was the only one who did not take the child’s soul bag.
That was strange.
Aren’t the remaining people wandering around in hell alone at night?
Seongju gritted his teeth.
“Your reasoning is great. Yes, you are not wrong. But now that Baekcheon-gun has run away, and if the spell is lifted and the villagers get their memories of the night back, that child… what will happen to that child?”
“Now that what functioned as a wedge for witchcraft has been released, it will disappear.”
Jin Cheon-hee does not know how the child was saved.
At least Baekcheon-gun must have revived it in his own way, rather than using the Rakshasha’s egg in a different way than others.
‘This is the missing part of the memory he showed.’
He didn’t lie, but he didn’t tell the whole truth either.
It was a strange trap.
In a way, it seems like he was saved by feeding Rakshasha eggs, but there was no actual scene where he was fed.
What if Jin Cheon-hee had never met the child and had not had an honest conversation with the child? What would have happened if I had just walked around from the perspective of an outsider?
‘Baekcheon-gun. ‘They’re digging a trap until the end.’
However, Jin Cheon-hee understood the essence of this matter.
It wasn’t simply because of a tremendous new skill like the Xuanyuan Zhandan New Technique.
Just a small act of kindness from one person to another.
An ordinary warmth that we see in everyday life.
It was like that. The child who could not become a Rakshasa like that. A child who couldn’t go crazy like everyone else.
Because it was pure and clean, it could be a pain reliever for others.
Thanks to that small act of kindness, Jin Cheon-hee arrived at the truth.
Dalgona’s warm words and hug opened up the truth.
‘The lord of the castle must have loved his son.’
Even if it is love twisted by madness in a burning world.
Therefore, he had to become the only witness in the city who was not a murderer.
And Seongju himself must have sometimes fallen into the spell created by the child and forgotten himself.
Because painful things are painful.
If Jin Cheon-hee had not touched the temple like this time, daily life like this would have continued.
Jin Cheonhee smiled weakly.
“But it is true that the child who should have died enjoyed life more. “More than anything… Isn’t it a forced sacrifice for the good of adults?”
The child lived to see hell.
I had to survive alone and sanely.
“That’s…”
Jin Cheonhee stopped talking.
“…Please don’t say that it is a sacrifice of a cow for the greater good. Now I’m getting tired of that, right? I. “I have a lot of bad memories.”
I swept my face with a dry hand.
The young man’s dry face is clearly revealed in the moonlight.
“You should have at least told the child before forcing it. “You can make your choice.”
“A child. “What can you possibly know with that small head?”
“I know how deep hell is.”
Bleep-
At that moment, my tinnitus rings.
Jin Cheon-hee felt goosebumps running down the back of her neck.
The time for settlement has come.
Last time I took my little finger. What should I bring this time?
‘There will be less this time because of the space.’
Even though I think so in my head, the fear does not go away.
I couldn’t help it. This much is human instinct.
And at that moment, the tinnitus stops.
Settlement begins.
Cough.
Jin Cheon-hee let out a bloody cough.
And my throat itches so I don’t know what to do and I cough again.
I see the blood I spit out disappear as if it were scattering the moment it hits the floor.
I realized it instinctively.
‘Ah, this settlement is blood.’
It is not life threatening.
Since it is a body made up of precious stones and curing balls, it can survive even if it is spilled to the point where an ordinary person would die.
A world that cannot be explained by science.
Cough!
My body collapses.
Yeo Ha-ryun urgently grabbed Jin Cheon-hee.
Consciousness fades away.
At the end, Jin Cheon-hee thought.
‘thank god. ‘It’s not like I’m going to have a limb amputated, so my teacher won’t catch me.’
Anyway, shouldn’t it be as long as the teacher doesn’t know?
* * *
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a bedroom.
‘Well, I see. Even if you die and come back to life, it doesn’t mean your entire body will heal.’
I don’t know what the standard is for recovery and what not, but I’m glad I survived anyway.
The settlement is over and I no longer cough blood.
I thought there was nothing I could do if it was the price of dying and then coming back to life.
First of all, my limbs are still fine.
‘I somehow managed to stop the blood death.’
I don’t know if we’ll fight again… Well, maybe I just had to think about it at the time.
‘I won’t be able to move for a while until I recover.’
Jin Cheonhee thought.
Yeo Ha-ryun was relieved to see Jin Cheon-hee’s condition.
It looks like Yeo Ha-ryun will be taking care of the baby herself for a while.
Yeo Ha-ryun took care of the affairs of the Demon Church and stayed by Jin Cheon-hee whenever she could.
How long has it been like that?
While I was sleeping, I suddenly felt a presence and when I opened my eyes, there was a child standing there.
It looks like Ha-ryun was away for a moment.
“hi.”
“Yeah, hi bro.”
The child’s expression looked strangely relieved.
“You finally heard the truth from adults.”
“huh. Everyone was mean. “You said you were sorry and only then did you talk.”
“…okay.”
The child stretched out his hand and held Jin Cheonhee’s outstretched hand.
“You have a brother, right? Actually, it’s a secret. “There were times when I couldn’t sleep at night because I had such bad dreams.”
“What dream?”
“A dream where I am very hungry but have no strength. And then I wasn’t even hungry. And I’m too lazy to move, so I just keep lying down. Lying down, lying down, lying down and falling asleep. Very scary? “I’m scared, but I don’t want to move my body.”
“….”
“…actually, it wasn’t just a dream, right?”
The child’s eyes were filled with water droplets.
“Probably yes.”
“I have a clear memory of when I died, but I wanted to believe that I wasn’t dead. So, life now was a bonus. My brother said that. “It’s like hell like heaven.”
A cruel world.
“okay.”
“I guess it was a nightmare that felt like a good dream.”
“But wasn’t there a part of it that was a good dream?”
“There was. “The adults were very sorry, though.”
Jin Cheonhee nodded.
“Brother Jashi said that, but he said I was already too weak to be used as a magic wedge. From the beginning, I said there was no such thing as a permanent spell. Anyway, there was a limit to what I could handle on my own. So, um.”
The child raised his hand. Something was visible behind my hand.
Like translucent glass.
“It used to be like this sometimes, but now that Baekcheon-gun is gone, it has come to an end quicker. It stings a little now, but it will hurt more later. I have to do something before my soul is polluted. “After saying that, Jashi fell asleep again.”
“Yes…”
“I cried because my mom lied to me. “Everyone bought a sweet dream by clinging to me.”
One innocent child.
Of course, it would create a very great miracle, but it would not be enough to make everyone in the castle forget their memories every day.
The strength of Baekcheon’s army was probably needed at some point.
“…thank you. “For finding the truth.”
“what.”
When we finally got there, there was nothing shiny.
But the child knew it was time to end the adventure.
The child who was carrying heaven alone has now decided to let go of heaven.
“What should I do now? “You just stab me in the chest with a knife, take out the intestines, and shake them?”
“…I saw a lot of things you couldn’t see.”
It’s a really bad place for children’s education.
This is especially true in heaven, where a child has to support himself alone.
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“There are some shamans who use it that way, but I probably don’t have to do that.”
After saying that, he stepped back and opened the blanket.
“Let’s sleep together with my brother. “I’ll give you an arm pillow.”
“Is that okay?”
“huh.”
“You’re really different from other shamans.”
Jin Cheon-hee chuckled at those words.
“I know. Jashi said that he had a natural talent for magic or something. “From the beginning, it was also called ‘new blood.’”
“huh.”
The child lay down next to Jin Cheon-hee.
Then I closed my eyes.
Since she couldn’t sleep, Jin Cheon-hee told her a fairy tale.
“Once upon a time, there was a monkey on Mount Huagua… His name was Sun Wukong…”
The child heard about Sun Wukong’s adventures.
Did the monkey eventually arrive at the West Station?
Was the scriptures received there really that valuable?
I couldn’t figure it out.
I couldn’t tell, but the child’s eyes were sparkling.
Goku continued his adventure to go west.
I fought with someone, sometimes made mistakes, and moved on.
Cheonchuk arrived after fighting and being covered in wounds.
The results were not significant.
The child must have been satisfied with the fun adventure because he had already fallen asleep and started to breathe slowly.
The young warrior’s adventure in a cruel world has finally come to an end.
The child’s body becomes increasingly transparent and transparent again.
As the curse was lifted, I felt the child’s soul being released.
A nightmare like a good dream.
It was the sound of a nightmare ending. It was the sound of a child’s adventure coming to an end.
Jin Cheon-hee stopped talking.
“good night.”
The child’s figure disappeared into ashes and dispersed.
In the empty bed, Jin Cheonhee cried for a very long time.
that.
It was a hellish paradise.
