The Player Returns After 10,000 Years Episode 480
The Demon of Prophecy (1)
Kkeuh. next day. Kang-woo went out of the house early in the morning.
I stretched out and relaxed my body lightly.
… I didn’t get an hour’s sleep after all. Things that had happened all morning filled my head.
Big hum.
He coughed lightly.
I gently lowered my head. ‘Francois… this kid did his best.’
He smiled proudly as he looked down at his comrades who had gone through the battlefield together.
For no reason, strength went into my shoulders and my steps became lighter.
Kangwoo bought a box of energy drinks from a nearby convenience store and
opened the gate to the Hall of Guardians.
After passing the gate, I saw a pure white hallway.
‘For some reason, Sihun doesn’t come to pick
me up.’
Whenever I went to the Hall of Protection, Kim Si-hoon, who sensed his presence like a ghost, came running to me, but today, for some reason, Kim Si-hoon was nowhere to be seen. ‘Are you away?
Like Echidna and Halkyon, it could have been mobilized to gather information about Nostrians.
hmm.
Gangwoo looked around and headed towards the place where Lay La’s office was.
smart.
After knocking lightly on the door.
Layla… Keugh.
Kang-woo distorted his expression at the dark energy flowing from the office.
‘What is this smell…’
Why does the room smell like rotting corpses?
I turned my head with a frown. Ah… Mr. Kang-woo… Are you here?
Leyra, with thick dark circles over her eyes, lifted her head.
Bang bang bang.
Sitting next to her, Kim Si-hoon was reading documents like a machine and stamping approval.
In Kim Si-hun’s eyes as he looked down at the documents, the usual bright light could not be found.
The sour smell of sweat from the office and the gloomy atmosphere.
A mountain of documents piled up so high that it’s
strange how they stacked them up .
Kang Woo opened his mouth with an awkward smile.
Um… You’ve been working since early morning. … yes? morning? Is it morning?
Leila looked at Kang Woo with unfocused eyes.
Whoop whoop It’s been a week since I’ve been here… I didn’t even know it was morning because I was here.
She shrugged her shoulders thinly and said in a voice mixed with laughter.
uh hmm is it broken? ‘Well, from the time I heard from Lilith, I expected it to be something like this.
The reason why the restoration work in Seoul was able to proceed so quickly is that Lay La and Kim Si-hoon, who are half-dead right now, have the biggest credit
.
He also spent a hectic time searching for a way to retrieve Kim Tae-hyeon’s memories for the past week, but Layla and Kim Si-hun seemed to be suffering from such a heavy workload that they couldn’t even express that they were hectic busy
.
‘It’s like seeing developers whose game development date was suddenly pushed back three months.’
Kangwoo shook his head and handed out the energy drink he had bought to Layla and Sihun Kim.
Are you okay?
It’s okay… Yes, it’s okay. Because if I don’t do it… it shouldn’t be.
Leila gulped down the energy drink that Kang-woo gave her with a wide-eyed look.
Pooh! Uh… But I think I’ll live a little bit.
Take a break. … Where is the time to rest? Leila let out a deep sigh.
The biggest problem in this parasite raid incident was that ‘Seoul’, not another city, was attacked.
Whether before or after the day of cataclysm, Seoul is one of the top cities in terms of population density.
Civilian casualties were inevitable.
The casualties themselves were very small compared to the scale of the raid, but the number of wounded was just as high.
What are the politicians of each country doing?
They too are working tirelessly. So it’s more of a problem.
Leila let out a deep sigh. Korea, which suffered this disaster, and other countries that did not,
worked hard.
The crux of the problem is relief goods.
The person who deserves to receive more somehow, and the person who should give tries to give less no matter what, so the Guardians, who have to play the role of mediator in the middle, have no choice but to be in a difficult position.
‘Because this is not a problem that can be solved blindly by force.’
If you take one side, the problem will grow later
.
For Kang-woo, acting as a mediator between the two sides, rather than unilaterally preying on one side,
felt far away.
By the way, Mr. Kang-woo, why are you here? Are you done with what you were doing?
Leila looked at Kang Woo with eyes burning with hope.
In this hellish overwork situation, it was possible to drastically reduce the amount of work if the rain was added. ‘I’m at least taking a shower…! Leila gulped and looked at Kang Woo.
Hmm…
Receiving her gaze, Kang-woo shook his head lightly and continued.
sorry. I think we still have to focus on recovering Taehyung’s memories. That…
Layla’s expression was terribly distorted. Despair flickered in her eyes as she looked at Kang Woo.
Kang Woo lowered his head with a calm expression.
‘I can’t help it.
In fact, the situation has already given up on recovering Kim Tae-hyun’s memories.
Originally, the purpose of coming here was to help Leila and Kim Si-hoon, who were suffering.
However, the reason why I said that the work I was doing was not finished was extremely simple.
‘I hate to do it.
It would be better to be infested with demons. Such paper hell was a no-go.
Every time I saw Leila haggard, my conscience in one side of my heart was very stabbed, but ‘I came here for a different reason today.’
He protected his quivering conscience with words close to self-hypnosis.
Besides the purpose of helping Laira with her work, there was one more reason for visiting her. ‘All right. Let’s go with it.
Kang Woo nodded his head as if he was satisfied and continued.
The reason I came to see Leila today is because of something about the divine realm.
…new world?
yes.
Kang Woo nodded softly.
He spoke in a stern voice.
I wondered what the heck he was doing so he couldn’t see his nose plucked.
Ah…
saliva flowed from Leila’s mouth.
Come to think of it… I hadn’t thought of that.
The constraints of the law, which had bound the gods, had already been lifted.
It was certainly strange that the gods didn’t show any action during the parasite’s attack. ‘No matter how hard it is to control the incarnation of evil spirits.
This was something that made no common sense.
‘It would be fortunate if he hadn’t come because he was really short of manpower.
Kang Woo narrowed his eyebrows.
‘In the worst case…
it is right to judge that something has happened to the divine realm.
Even while the parasite was attacking the earth, it was such a big deal that even nose plucking couldn’t see it. wait a minute. I’ll try to contact Gaia.
Layra stopped what she was doing and stood up, as if thinking it was not a light matter.
She gently closed her eyes.
After a few minutes passed like that
…why.
Leila muttered in a trembling voice.
Kang Woo clicked his tongue.
‘also.’
There was no way the gods of Olympus were sitting by the parasite’s attack for no reason.
I can’t get in touch with Gaia…
Leila said with a pale, tired expression.
Kang Woo slowly closed his eyes. ‘Fuck.’
While I was distracted by the parasite, something else was going on.
A huge tree supporting the world.
Black smoke was billowing from the thick, multi-pronged branches. Keugh!
Stop that monster!! There was a huge palace on a thick branch that branched out into many branches. The name of the palace is Ulympus. It was the place of the mythological beings known to the humans of Earth as Greek and Roman mythology.
-Roaring!
The awe-inspiringly beautiful Palace of Olympus was now collapsing, swallowed up by a fire. Hehe
over the ruins of the collapsed palace
.
A boy was standing. The boy, whose eyes seemed blank, looked down at the gods of Olympus with a bright smile.
As the boy stomped his feet lightly, his body disappeared as if it melted into thin air. The boy who moved through space in an instant appeared in front of Uranus.
Keugh!
Uranus hurriedly pulled himself back.
But the boy’s hand moved faster than that. stay calm Cuckoo!
It hit Uranus’ stomach roughly. With just one shot, the protection of Uranus’ godhead was torn apart.
The body of Uranus, who received the intense shock, limp like a corpse.
Hi-Hi. Then I’ll eat well~
The boy opened his mouth wide.
Get rid of those filthy hands
when the hideous gaping mouth like that of a snake is about to chew up and swallow Uranus’ head !!
The shout of the goddess with brown hair resonated.
A huge shockwave hit the boy’s body.
The boy’s body rolled terribly on the floor.
What are you doing, Mrs. Haven’t you heard that not even a dog can be touched while eating?
The boy turned his head toward the goddess in annoyance.
The brown-haired goddess Gaia glared at the boy with ferocious eyes.
Baal. How dare you…
Hee hee.
Baal shook his shoulders and laughed innocently.
If you get too angry, you wrinkle your forehead
.
And actually, the annoying thing is that this side is the same?
The girl licked her lips and licked her lips.
I was curious about what the existence of an alien world would taste like, but I gave it up and came here. What does that mean… hehehe. I wonder what you mean?
The boy twisted the corners of his mouth.
You guys gave up eating and came here because the kid being fooled by him was so funny.
Gaia tightly closed her mouth and frowned.
You said you were deceived…?
lol. huh! Even if I was fooled, I was really fooled!
Baal smiled brightly and clapped his hands.
I was curious about how long I was going to be deceived, so I was watching, but now that I think about it, it’s more than just watching.
He smiled widely and opened his eyes wide. Madness began to linger in the eyes that felt blank somewhere.
I thought telling the truth would be more fun.
He stomped his feet as if he was having fun just imagining it.
Hee hee, how will he come out if all the truth is exposed? huh? How else are you going to cheat?
The maddened boy’s eyes twitched up and down.
How will I get over it once? But what about the second? What about the third? what number to go to? huh?
What did you say earlier…
hee hee hee!! Imagine! Aren’t you looking forward to it? That arrogant and unscrupulous guy is frustrated with all the truth exposed!!
Baal spread his arms wide and laughed loudly.
That’s… that’s why I came to you.
Gaia looked at Baal with a bewildered expression. … You’re insane.
There is no context and no logic. The feeling of just babbling the words that pop into your head without a filter. Gaia shook her head, thinking that Baal was completely insane.
Are you out of your mind? huh? Do I look like I’m out of my mind?
Baal let out a giggle, tearing the corners of his mouth all the way down to his ears.
As if Gaia was not worthy of an answer,
she prepared for battle, exuding divinity from all over.
Even seeing this… Can you call me insane?
Right.
Baal lightly snapped his fingers.
At the same time, a blue window appeared before Gaia’s eyes.
The existence that players call ‘system’. It was
a screen made with the law of the titans
.
– You want to feel fear?
What she sees on the screen is the figure of her family whom she deeply trusts. I am my child!
His own people were confronting the King of Gisaeng who had attacked from the outside world.
Big.
Although she couldn’t help him, she bit her lip with an impatient expression on her face when she remembered that she was being unilaterally beaten by Baal.
at that time.
-Yes, I’ll make you feel tired.
On the corner of Kangwoo’s mouth, seen through the screen, I saw a smile full of madness that I had never seen before.
A twisted smile that fits the expression ‘devil’ the best.
…is it my child?
Gaia looked at the screen with trembling eyes.
There was no trace of the radiance she was familiar with.
and
-Open the door.
The door to the magic sea
opened.
