Karma Chain (1)
.
This place, called hell, is as large as the real world and has a society as organized as humans.
However, while human society was a product of reason, hell society was a product of emotion, so the trajectory of the system was different.
The most representative thing is that if the base of reality is water, the base of hell is fire.
A world where the sky is mostly covered with fiery clouds and hot fiery flowers fall instead of cold rain.
Fire that falls to the ground melts like lava and flows into a huge river of fire.
Cities are formed along the tributaries of rivers, and without exception there are devices called purification facilities.
A lava dam that controls the amount of fire, a soul processing plant that controls the quality of fire, and a grill where hell fire is boiling 24 hours a day.
And the person in charge of all these purification facilities was the Korea Natural Resources Management Corporation, which boasts the highest authority in hell.
“Aaaah!”
A tearing scream was heard from the office of the president of the Korea Chemical Resources Management Corporation.
Although it sounded painful, there was a feeling of pleasure between the syllables.
The door opened hastily.
“president! “What’s going on!”
The president, who was putting his feet up on the table, hurriedly crouched down and turned around.
“Ouch! what!”
Secretary Monoras spoke calmly.
“No, I came because I heard a noise.”
The eyes of Lete, the president of the chemical company, narrowed and glanced coldly at Monolas.
The worst demon with reddish-brown skin and the intelligence of a pig’s head.
‘Why is that guy…
working as the chief secretary of a chemical company?
“Sniff. “Sniff.”
As Monolas smelled the bell, as if searching for something, Lethe’s face distorted.
“What are you doing?”
“It’s nothing. Hmm ha. “Hmm.” I didn’t want to hear that stupid, stuffy voice, but the most annoying thing was the fact that he was the most shameless guy in hell.
“Monoras.”
“Yes, boss.”
Lethe snapped her fingers.
“Come here for a moment.”
“Now I have to go to work. “I’m busy.”
When her dull body didn’t move, she quickly nodded as if she had expected it.
“okay. Okay, come by for a moment.”
Monolas, who was blinking, showed his displeasure and walked towards the desk.
“why? Even if it’s something to eat… Before she could finish speaking, she jumped over the desk and hit Monolas’ chin with her fist.
“This bastard is real!”
The pig’s body flew through the wall of the president’s office and landed bluntly on the wall of the hallway.
Lethe, who ran with all her might, kicked his stomach and started stomping on him.
“I told you not to come in, right? I’ve said it over 300 million times! “Are you ignoring me now?”
Each time Lethe struck, there was a sound similar to that of meat being kneaded.
“Quick! “Quick!”
Lethe followed Monolas, who was rolling down the hallway making a pig-clucking sound.
“How many more times do I have to get beaten before I come to my senses? I’m the boss! okay? Answer me! “Who’s the boss?”
“I am the boss!”
“Ahhhh! it’s annoying!”
When he kicked Monoras’ stomach, the large body hit the ceiling and fell vertically.
“ha! ha!”
Lethe took a breath, glaring at the pig’s face, which was clutching its stomach and shedding tears.
“I’m the boss! I! So, to you, it’s not me, it’s you…!”
“president.”
A voice was heard from the end of the hallway.
A refreshing voice that does not fit in with hell.
But this was their job.
informator.
A woman with goat-like horns on her head approached me like a cat, holding a folder to her chest.
“You still get along well.” Lethe, who was out of breath, looked at Monolas with unfocused eyes and raised her head.
“what’s the matter?”
“Ah yes. Two new people came in. In the Tomb of the Spine, Area 7, Baramaon. “It’s a different type of sacrifice than the true sacrifice.”
Lethe sighed, remembering how the purification system had been messed up by the sealing of the psychic sphere.
“What type is it?”
“Taegeuk.”
“What!”
Lethe’s eyes widened.
“It’s a very large emotional body! No no! Right now, purification facilities across the country are almost at a standstill. “I can’t purify this.” The informator shrugged his shoulders.
“Even if you say that…
from the Korea Resources Management Corporation’s perspective, it was a problem that had to be solved by putting aside all work.
“damn! “What kind of crazy person are you?”
Taegeuk refers to the phenomenon in which two concepts that refer to each other are combined into one.
Usually, it is just a temporary, one-off phenomenon, but the fact that it ended up in hell itself was a problem.
“With just a few taboos, you wouldn’t be able to even cross the threshold of hell. “How on earth did you get here?”
“Well, the type of karma chain is the color system. By amplifying good and evil, we reached the First One.”
“Ugh.”
Lethe looked bored.
“These are absolutely crazy. Aside from what evil despises, what does good accept?”
“I think it was a way to prevent evil.”
“Hmm.”
While Lethe rested her chin and thought, a loud snoring sound was heard from the floor.
Monoras, who had already fallen asleep, was talking in his sleep.
“Hehehe boss, it tickles.”
The color drained from Lethe’s face, and a few strands of hair stood up like static electricity.
“cadet! really!”
Without any time to stop him, he kicked, and Monoras’ face hit the wall.
“Hmmnya umnya.”
Lethe turned away with tears in her eyes.
“That’s the Chief of Staff! I can’t cut it and I can’t quit it. “Is there a God?”
Just as Taeseong manages the resources of reality, Lete manages the resources of the hidden world.
What was different was the extreme work stress from a company with no rest or retirement.
Baramaon District 7.
The piled up remains of discarded bones with the spine removed gave it the name ‘Spine Grave.’
There, all the deformed children were walking around the tombs, sucking out bone marrow.
A race called Limbo was weak in combat, but its cruelty was unrivaled.
There was no sign of growth in the eyes as they bent their skinny legs and sucked out the bone marrow.
“Aaaah!”
At the roar that erupted in the air, the Limbos threw their bones and quickly scattered in all directions.
The space trembled, and a man and a woman with their bodies wrapped around each other fell onto the grave.
“Ugh!”
As Etella moaned as she was stabbed by a sharp bone, Chagall’s expression crumpled.
“Whew. Phew.”
When I came to my senses and looked around, I found myself in a place completely different from reality.
“Where are we?”
“Probably… hell.”
When I turned my head again, Etella, who was still lying down, spoke calmly.
“Because this is the only place you can go.”
“Kick!”
Chagall laughed, shaking his shoulders.
“Hahaha! Was this what it ended up being? “Did you forgive me or anything to bring me to hell?”
“Are you disappointed?”
The laughter suddenly stopped.
“no.”
Rapid-fire swords rained down like hail and Chagall caught one of them.
“You must be the one who is disappointed. You’re going to hell because of a guy like me. But what should I do? From now on, what you will experience is not hell, but me.”
Chagall’s tongue licked the blade.
“You’re already dead, so you can’t die again, right? I guess not? “Shall we try an experiment first?”
A rapid-fire sword stuck in Etella’s shoulder.
“Huh!”
At the same time, Chagall felt the pain of the knife being inserted into his shoulder and instinctively took a step back.
“damn! what!”
Etella raised her upper body and looked at her chest with a surprised expression.
“This??????
A chain that started from the side where the heart was was pierced through Chagall’s clothes and connected to his chest.
“damn! “It’s annoying.”
As Chagall pulled the chain, Etella was struck by a soul-crushing shock.
“Huh!”
Etella crawled forward, and Chagall, who was equally shocked, collapsed in his seat.
They both thought the same thing.
“It is connected.”
Chagall, who thought he needed more information, raised his rapid-fire sword and stabbed himself in the thigh.
“Tsk! “What are you doing!”
Etella grabbed her knees and lost her temper, but this was certain.
“Hmm.”
You have to take the initiative.
Chagall pulled the chain again, but this time Etella responded in the same way.
Slam!
The moment the chain was pulled taut, both of them trembled as if they had been shocked by electricity.
“Keuuuu!”
While I was curled up and waiting for the pain to go away, I gathered my thoughts to some extent.
“You got caught dirty. “Are you saying this is my sin?”
When I turned my head, Etella was also looking at Chagall with a helpless expression.
‘do! do!’
The landscape of reality disappeared and Ryan saw everything in his vision turning red.
At that moment, the burning pain disappeared.
“Huh oh oh!”
I felt my extreme emotions cooling down quickly, but I couldn’t return to reality.
In a way… dead.
“That’s it.”
Lian looked around, holding the handle to see if Idea was okay.
There were monkfish everywhere, and they were picking up rocks and eating like crazy, as if they couldn’t bear it because they were so hungry.
“Hehe! Kehehe!”
The monkfish with a stone stuck in its throat was coughing and stopped breathing when it found Lian. Before I knew it, thousands of anglers that had caught the scent of raw flesh were looking this way.
The smell of sulfur was foul and the air was hot, but at least it wasn’t as hot as burning.
“Would you like to warm up a bit?”
Looking back at the ghosts who were already closing the distance, Lian took out his great sword.
“Keeeeee! It’s meat! meat!”
Screaming unintelligible words, ghosts gathered from all directions like rising water.
The moment when Rian, who took a confident step forward, was about to swing the Daejikdo horizontally.
“Tsk!”
As my heart became so hot, my whole body began to lose strength rapidly.
‘ what?’
Rian, who rolled on the floor to avoid the attack, held out his sword and examined his chest.
The body seemed to have been pierced through the frame.
Small chains were endlessly wrapped around the red stone floating in place of the heart.
‘Is it because of this?’
When force was applied in that state, the speed at which the chain was wound increased tremendously and caught fire.
“Hmm!”
As Rian frowned, feeling the pain of being burned, the hungry ghosts clapped.
“Gehenna! Gehenna!”
I don’t know what it means, but I had a rough guess.
‘Right. The light is not off. The fire of reality is applied differently here.’
That might be Gehenna.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Lian raised the corners of his mouth and stood up.
“Go for it.”
The hungry ghosts gathered again, and regardless of the pain, Lian swung his sword to his heart’s content.
The weak hungry ghosts were no match for him, but the more he moved his body, the hotter the fire in his chest became.
Smoke rose from Ryan’s mouth.
“Hmm!”
The ghosts realized that their opponent was strong, but they did not give up and bided their time.
A chain flowed from Rian’s chest and at some point was pinned to the ground.
Lian, who had been rushing forward without noticing, tilted her upper body and fell to her knees due to the force of the pull.
“Ugh!”
There was no strength.
As if they had already expected it, the ghosts let out a roar and attacked Lian at the same time.
“It’s meat! “I will eat it!”
The moment the anglerfish sank their sharp teeth, Lian gritted his teeth and stood up.
“Fire…
the chain embedded in the ground was pulled taut and turned red-hot as if heat had been applied.
“Gehenna! Gehen…
The hungry ghosts stopped moving and looked around.
The ground had turned into lava and was sloshing around, and the bodies of my comrades were flowing out like porridge.
“How can Gehenna…!”
Divine transcendence.
As Lian advanced, the heated chains came out and set the air on fire.
“Hell! Hell fire!”
The ghosts regenerated and flowed into the heart along the pure demonic chain.
“Hmm!”
At the same time, thick smoke began to pour out of Ryan’s mouth, as if his lungs were on fire.
