Episode 164
The stormy match between England and Korea rather relieved the old feelings of the two teachers.
“You have a wonderful disciple.”
Let Aris smile and talk. Yoo Won-hak replied calmly.
“Your brother too. Quite strong. It was like seeing you in your younger days.”
However, the praise of the two towards the disciples ends there. Aris and Yoo Won-hak didn’t say anything more and just looked at each other.
Yoo Won-hak looked straight into Aris’ eyes and said.
“A series of recent kidnappings. Of course that’s what he did, right?
The story of Yuwonhak that everyone knows. Aris looked at the books in the study and shook her head slowly.
“I don’t know. Because even I cannot trace the dimension that child opened.”
“Are you saying you couldn’t track it? That story makes me more confident.”
At Yu Won-Hak’s words, Aris didn’t respond.
“I know you want to take care of his business. But do you intend to keep hiding it from me? Aris?”
Yu Won-hak, arms folded, said with a serious face. Aris made an incomprehensible expression.
In her head, a deep anguish unfolded that ordinary people could not catch up with.
And the conclusion reached after much deliberation.
“It can’t be helped…”
Aris slowly opened her mouth.
“…You have plenty of time. I will tell you the story of the child.”
* * *
The head of the notorious villain group Rebellion stopped laughing when he heard of his childhood name set by the Hunter Association.
The Nameless.
don’t have a name
that’s just their opinion The head of Rebellion remembered the name given to him.
‘My name is. 3017.’
EP-TEST-No.3017 to be exact.
I could never forget. Because all that was given in that hellish place was a white lab coat and a test subject number of 3017.
3017.
Recalling that number, Nameless closed her eyes. Then, the memories that were engraved deep inside came back vividly.
[I know that? This world is actually very wide!]
Eyes full of vitality.
At first I thought it was really strange. Most of the labs were exhausted from repeated medications and experiments, and somehow they were dead.
But she was different.
[Because it is endlessly wide. They say it doesn’t stop even if you walk on and on and on and on.]
He spoke about the outside world as if he had just seen it, shining curious eyes at Subject, an experimental subject born in Bentham City like himself.
[…how do you know that? 2996 You’ve never been out here, either.]
[I saw it in a book!]
[Korean?]
[No, Lucy said you can read other books now. You never know when you’ll get some socialization training! If you get it all, you’re out of here, right? I’m so excited.]
[Don’t even dream. Only dead people get out of here.]
Thinking back then, he was very cold towards 2996. At first I thought she was annoying, but it wasn’t. In fact, it was just embarrassing.
Her courage to dream of hope even in a hellish place like this.
[3017 Ah. The outside world says flowers bloom on sunny days.]
[What are flowers?]
[Beautiful. It smells good too! Wouldn’t it be great to be buried in a place full of those things?]
And I didn’t want to admit it back then, but it was actually nice.
[Shall we talk about the moon today?]
[The moon keeps changing its shape!]
[Some days it’s half as if it’s starved, and other days it’s round and fat like it’s eaten a lot! Isn’t it amazing?]
The story of the outside world told by 2996.
[…Hah black. And sure. I want to go to the sea.]
2996, which was the only one shining brightly in the lab, was bright.
[Looking at the endless horizon… delicious too. I ate a lot…]
Maybe that’s why I was more sad.
[…3017. Is it you?]
[Yes. How did you know?]
[Your footsteps… are very kind. It seems to be whispering softly.]
[2996. Still… do you still want to go to the outside world?]
[…Yeah. I want to go. Very much.]
Losing the light.
Losing the essence of 2996.
Something that is slowly fading.
I was so sad.
[…Where?]
[Yeah~ Well… It’s hard to build a house. How about a narrow island? Full of flowers…]
[Even if I go to a place like that. Now you can’t see it…]
[Hehe… 3017. You just have to explain it.]
[Like you did?]
[Yeah.]
[That’s too annoying.]
[…will you?]
[Yes.]
[Hehe, thank you. But I’m very sleepy today…]
That’s the last appearance of 2996.
[EP-TEST-No. 2996.]
[Exit and Decommissioning]
2996 slowly lost its light in the new white lab. It collapsed after 37 trials.
[Sorry. Can’t stand the last test. On the other hand, congratulations 3017! You are not me, but the best masterpiece of this bantam!]
Paola Greco.
A genius scientist and hunter in charge of Bantam. The nature of the Nameless ran out of control at the scientist’s words.
Dimensional contract,
oh my!
Nameless was able to contact himself and the dimension that the wavelength is responsible for.
And the name of the dimension that has the most repercussions with Nameless’ overflowing emotions.
The Eternal Dimension is
a terrible dimension in which even beings regarded as the lowest in it can only be seen after going beyond the 40th floor of the tower.
Did they say that if you look into the abyss for a long time, the abyss will also look into you? The moment Nameless fell into the abyss of despair, a dimensional being that matched the emotion looked at Nameless.
It was the beginning of a terrible twist.
Nameless slowly opened her closed eyes.
“Did you say revenge is not too late even after 10 years? After 20 years, we finally met.”
“Ugh yup yup yup!”
Unlike back then, Paola was struggling like crazy with her hair that had turned white.
“I have never forgotten you for a moment.”
Nameless removed the tape from Paola’s mouth. It was really interesting that Dalclaw and Cheet, who had advanced technology, were pursuing analog in this area.
“You are you!”
A young terror in Paola’s eyes.
Nameless smiled and waited patiently for Paola to call her name.
“3017! It’s 3017!”
I still remember it even after 20 years. 3017 is a bloody number created by the deaths of 3016 people.
“you’re right. You and the World Hunters Association are names you will never forget.”
The fact that the head of the Rebellion was Bentham’s experimental body 3017 was no longer a secret to the association’s leadership.
A fact that Paola, the party involved, could never know.
“How… how did you find me? I erased all information about me!”
At Paola’s question, Nameless just smiled.
The reason he was able to find Paola was not how to recover Paola’s information that had been erased. It was only thanks to persuading a talented hacker named Chitra to join him.
“…does it matter?”
Nameless’ chilly voice sent goose bumps all over Paola’s body.
The important thing now is how you found it. Why did you find yourself was
“At that time, I was just working for humanity! For the good of the world! It’s an association… No! It’s a fact agreed upon by the whole world!”
Instead of answering, Nameless took off her glasses and slowly wiped them with a handkerchief. It was Nameless’s only ritual to establish a godly mind before performing the ritual.
“…okay.”
Nameless slowly put on her glasses and looked around leisurely.
sunny weather.
full moon and full moon.
Two moons floating in the sky.
An endless horizon.
A narrow island with beautiful flowers.
This is a space created by the contract itself. It was not enough to greet 2996.
“Excuses. not me Do it directly to 2996.”
right!
Nameless made a sound by putting her fingers together. Then the space behind her back distorted and cracked.
Fog and unidentified shadows slowly overflowing from the gap.
“long time no see. 2996.”
Nameless said with a smile.
let the fog clear An unidentified shadow gradually appeared. A grotesque being of the Eternal Dimension who swallows people’s souls and binds them forever.
gooh-
The monster called 2996 slowly stretched out its red-stained hand.
Saaaa –
The red hand that was trying to grab Nameless suddenly stopped moving. Instead, I chased after Paola who was a little further ahead.
“Kuheugh!! Get this right now!”
Paola foamed at the mouth and tried to escape. However, the bandage that moved like a tentacle squeezed Paola’s body.
Wedge liquid! Quack!
The monster carried Paola in front of his face. Then, the shape of the fingers gathered on the head opened, revealing the true face only to Paola.
“Hey heck heck…”
With a shriek, Paola’s body was disintegrated into mana pieces and absorbed. Nameless grinned at the terrible sight.
This is the world of images contracted by Nameless. It rained endlessly from a clear sky.
“…Eat slowly. 2996. I will tell you how beautiful the world I created is.”
Nameless’ revenge against the association had just begun.
