Chapter 380:
What Did You Cut?
Shin Yoo-seong cut something just by moving his hand horizontally. The giant Shin Ha
-yoon
just looked down at Shin Yoo-seong. Shin Yoo-seong did not know what he had cut.
“…What are you doing?”
However, when the water mist that formed the air turned into rain and poured down, Shin Ha-yoon, who was looking down at Shin Yoo-seong, sensed that something was wrong.
“Ah-”
This is inside the barrier created so that reality and dreams come into contact. Since the rules of this space are the same as dreams, the fantasy created by Shin Ha-yoon naturally becomes a real material and works.
Therefore, water fog could never become water with physical force.
The only way to do that was to tear up the space Shin Ha-yoon had created or cut off the flow of mana.
“…Can you see me?”
The huge body of Shin Ha-yoon suddenly approached Shin Yoo-seong. The red bloodshot eyes that looked ominous were close enough to touch Shin Yoo-seong.
If Shin Ha-yoon had the memory of Morgan, the witch who transcended human beings, Shin Yoo-seong had super senses that transcended human senses.
Even if you explain the scenery you see now, no one will understand.
Shin Yuseong penetrated the essence of mana in the blue and red threads.
“Can you see the flow of mana…?”
Shin Ha-yoon knew better than anyone how dangerous it was and how powerful it was with superior common sense.
“huh. Even if it is called gigantic.”
Shin Yoo-seong, who silently looked at Shin Ha-yoon, sneered coldly.
“I can see the essence of cowardice.”
Now it’s time to peel that skin off.
Shin Yoo-seong stretched out his hand toward Shin Ha-yoon. The movement was smooth, like a flowing river, not a devastating blow.
“You-”
Shin Ha-yoon, who sensed danger, struck down a huge fist. The force was so great that the island vibrated as if a rock had been dropped, but Shin Yoo-seong blocked it as easily as a feather. Shin Yoo
-seong’s hand touched Chapter 5 Wave Resonance. The shape began to distort as if swallowed by a black hole.
Then, in the end, Shin Ha-yoon’s body exploded with a pop like a balloon popping. Shin Yooseong looked back and said.
“Stop playing around.”
Shin Ha-yoon, wearing Morgan’s dress, raised one corner of her mouth as if it was so funny.
“Still, my acting surprised me. Wasn’t it quite plausible?”
Shin Ha-yoon’s acting was not bad, showing a surprised expression pretending not to know Shin Yoo-sung’s mana resonance. However, just by looking at the form of the barrier that was sloppy like a net, Shin Yooseong could tell that this was a barrier in preparation for her own mana resonance.
“And even if it looks like a joke, if you eat away at your mana little by little, the story will be different, right? Oh, I said it beforehand. You won’t be able to break the barrier.”
Shin Ha-yoon created a large number of copies of Shin Yoo-seong with kind explanations.
bang-!
The clones spurred the ground and ran. Watching Shin Yuseong imitate his posture and pour in his attacks, his attacks were quite sharp for a clone.
However, the clones made of mana instantly turned into mist and scattered when Shin Yuseong drew a half moon with his sword.
“To destroy three clones in one blow… It would have been really dangerous without the lizard’s mana.”
Shin Yoo-seong did not fall for Shin Ha-yoon’s provocation. The replicas that imitated him poured out endlessly, but Shin Yuseong silently defeated them.
Shin Ha-yoon fights using the near-infinite mana contained in the Glass Heart, so at first glance, it is an unfavorable fight.
‘Time is on my side.’
But in reality it was not.
The more Shin Ha-yoon took the time without risking it, the closer Seungri was to Shin Yoo-seong.
The more Mana Shin Ha-yoon used, the closer the victory was. When Shin Yoo-seong’s analysis using super senses was over, the only path left for Shin Ha-yoon was defeat.
“It’s no use provoking that. do you actually know Even if you connect mana like a net, it’s a makeshift thing in the end.”
Now, it was Shin Yoo-seong who was provoking. If the promised time comes and the mana analysis ends, the barrier will be destroyed. By that time, the companions who went to the altar would also come in droves.
“Time is on my side. Eventually, when your teammates arrive, it’s your defeat.”
When Shin Yoo-seong finished the analysis and put an end to the confrontation, Shin Ha-yoon shook his head.
“Time is on your side? Do you really know nothing? I set the rules here. Even if 100 years pass in this space, if I decide that it is 1 second of reality, then that is the law. Do you know what that means?”
Time seems absolute, but it is relative. Especially if it’s a dream. Morgan, the ruler of dreams, could have made one second of reality feel like 100 years, or even eternity.
“Why did humans fear the power of my dreams more than the plague of death and eternal winter?”
If you become a specter of dreams and roam eternal time, will you be able to maintain a sane mind?
No matter how weak you feel, even if you want to die, you cannot die without Morgan’s permission.
“Courage is short-lived, but despair is eternal. The moment when gaekgi turns into regret. After that, it’s just a pit from which you can’t escape.”
Shin Yoo-seong was a competent chess player if he was on his side. Shin Ha-yoon believed in that possibility, so he let Shin Yoo-seong go. However, there was no reason to leave Shin Yuseong intact now that all possibilities had been cut off.
“Yoosung. I said I was scared earlier.”
Fear is a promise.
It is a stigma engraved deep in the bones for the noble purpose of preserving the species, and an order that the weak human heart cannot disobey.
A terrified human only thinks about survival. Any lofty purpose loses its direction, any brilliant conviction loses its luster.
“Hehe…”
But that’s just an extremely ordinary human point of view. Do witches have such instincts left?
“I think I felt it for the first 100 years or so. desire to live. The fear of being stronger than me. The instinct to want to live, even if it means giving up what you have…”
Shin Ha-yoon shook his head and closed his eyes. Morgan’s mana permeating through Aurora vividly recalled the emotions dormant in the witch’s memories.
“But after 500 years, forget everything. What were you afraid of, what did you like, what did you hate…”
Compared to the waves of emotions I feel now, the goals I had before were nothing more than straw.
“What feelings do you have left then? The flame-like zest for life is long gone. All that remains is already ashes.”
Shin Ha-yoon’s feelings became more intense as she began to assimilate with Morgan’s memories. 100 years, 500 years and countless times came to mind vividly as if waking up from hibernation.
“Then what if we live another 1,000 years after that? What would it be like to be stuck in multiple time axes and repeat boring times endlessly?”
But Morgan did not choose death. There was something she wanted more intensely than a peaceful death while enduring the time of Morgan’s pain.
“Even until this morning, I was curious. Why does the memory of Morgan in my body crave power so much?”
Memories that were mere fragments have returned to their full form. The moment he remembered the answer he had forgotten, Shin Ha-yoon even felt catharsis.
“The answer was simple.”
Shin Ha-yoon savored Morgan’s memories and slowly recalled them. The moment I became a witch, the days I went crazy repeating the same choices, the loneliness of people around me disappearing one by one.
“Morgan… just wanted to give humanity back the same experience.”
If he were to rule mankind, he would never present death as a gift. He intended to experience the same experience as himself and give him the same despair forever.
“okay.”
Shin Ha-yoon smiled happily. Beautiful decorations were embroidered on Shin Ha-yoon’s dress, which perfectly restored Morgan’s memory.
The curse of the sea god.
Velvet’s Mana.
All the arrangements Shin Ha-yoon prepared, from Morgan’s necklace Aurora to the six altars of the Sky Island, were for this moment.
Quaaang –
The earth cracked and mana began to twist and divide inside the barrier. A purple moon covered the sky, and as remnants tangled, the boundary between reality and dreams was reversed.
“It’s your turn this time.”
A true dream has arrived.

Too much pain makes a man lose his mind. However, Lee Hyuk did not know what a pain was more terrible than a burning pain and worse than drowning in water and not being able to breathe.
All he can know is the answer that such pain cannot be endured by the human mind.
‘By the way…’
Lee Hyuk looked at Issin in front of him.
He passed out while holding on to the sword that had been driven into the ground, but his knees did not touch the ground all the way. He kept his oath even when he was hit with Berial’s magic and was in shock to lose his mind.
Isshin, who had already lost his mind, couldn’t hear it, but Lee Hyuk opened his mouth.
“…you’ve lost your mind. If I put my mind to it, I can forcefully claim your defeat.”
Lee Hyuk grabbed the glass heart he had taken from the altar. I even thought to myself. He cast a spell on himself, saying that this was not a betrayal and that the mana Shin Ha-yoon had secured was already enough and that what was left of the scattered pieces was nothing but dregs.
Took –
Lee Hyuk threw the glass heart beside Isshin. No matter how special he was for Shin Ha-yoon, he couldn’t become a villain who trampled on such a proud hunter.
“But since I watched your fighting spirit from beginning to end. I have no choice but to admit it….”
Even if his skills were superior to his opponent, and even if he had won the battle, Lee Hyuk could not break Isshin’s conviction. this is obvious
“Isshin. It is your victory.”
It was Isshin’s victory.
