Episode 190
“Did you say God…?”
Taehyun asked back.
“You look like you can’t believe it.”
Kevin Lee said, and Michael Gore and Cody Cruz didn’t seem too surprised.
‘Aren’t you kidding me?’
But God.
How absurd this is.
Meanwhile, the four people diligently moved around the association building.
We arrived at a room on the 50th floor.
I already had to go through several stages of identity verification to get here.
Is that why?
There were only a few magic stones installed in the room.
Association President Kevin Lee approached the magic stone installed in the center and injected magic power into it.
That was the signal.
Giiiiiiing.
The magic stone vibrated and the magic power was transferred to another magic stone.
After rotating it a few times, a warp gate was created in the middle of the room.
‘This is my first time seeing something like this again.’
It was a technological skill that even Taehyun in his previous life had never experienced.
Kevin Lee called Taehyun.
“Follow me in. “The gate will close soon, so you’ll have to hurry.”
Kevin Lee, Michael Gore, and Cody Cruz crossed the gate one after another.
‘It’s God…’
To confirm the unbelievable fact.
Taehyun followed behind and crossed the gate.
* * *
“Where are we?”
Taehyun asked, looking around.
Everything was pure white.
“I can’t tell you that far.”
“….”
“Isn’t our promise about ‘updating humanity’?”
Kevin Lee quietly threw a new bait.
It meant that if you wanted to know more, you had to pay a price.
Taehyun also had no intention of doing business at a loss.
“That too.”
Taehyun kept looking around and followed the three people.
‘Maybe it’s another dimension.’
Between Earth and Abyss.
I felt like I was somewhere on the border.
Did you walk for about 10 minutes?
‘…!!’
A huge magical force was felt from ahead.
A presence that wouldn’t be strange even if it were the Archduke’s.
Nevertheless, the other three people did not seem particularly surprised.
I could instinctively know that it was related to that ‘God’ thing.
So I walked for another 10 minutes.
I couldn’t help but ask about the sight before my eyes.
“What on earth is this?”
“Didn’t I tell you? “It’s God.”
Kevin Lee raised the corners of his mouth and answered.
‘Is this… God…?’
It was a huge group of lights that easily exceeded 10 meters.
Behind the group of lights forming the shape of a human, there was something like wings.
I could see it up close.
This.
This magical power is ‘something’ that goes far beyond the Archduke and is more than just a monster.
“Congratulations. Player Kim Tae-hyun. With this, you too are in the same boat as us.”
“what…?”
Taehyun asked back, unable to take his eyes off the group of lights.
Michael Gore and Cody Cruz were looking at each other with understanding expressions.
The same was true for Kevin Lee.
“Let me introduce you. The source of magical power and the creator of the status window system. A god who realizes the update of humanity. “It’s called ‘No Name.’”
As if introducing the guardian spirit of one’s country.
He said, spreading out his hands.
* * *
Unlike Taehyun, who was surprised, the three people had calm expressions.
They are the highest ranking executives of the Players Association of America.
It was natural that I had known about ‘No Name’ for a long time.
On the other hand, Taehyun, who returned, felt like he had been hit hard in the back of the head.
This is of course my past life self.
This was not information that a single guild could obtain.
That’s why I couldn’t help but ask.
“So this is the real God…?”
Before I knew it, I had forgotten my respect, but Kevin Lee didn’t care.
This is because the sight before one’s eyes is something that can completely change a person’s sense of values.
‘That’s what God is like.’
Kevin Lee smirked and raised the corners of his mouth.
A card called No Name has already been opened.
He was planning to completely drag Taehyun over to the United States.
“In terms of his abilities, that’s true. A status window system that cannot be explained scientifically. “It was ‘God’ who created it.”
“It looks like a more detailed explanation is needed.”
Taehyun, who had regained his composure, asked back.
Kevin Lee nodded.
Any human being becomes ordinary before God.
The powerful people who discussed being the best in the world were like that, and the intellectuals were also like that.
What Taehyun is showing now is not much different from what they showed.
“Humans back then couldn’t handle skills like they do now.”
Association President Kevin Lee began his explanation.
His predecessor.
And it was a story handed down even further from the previous generation.
One day when the Abyss was discovered and humans were suffering from the invasion of monsters.
god.
An unknown being has appeared here in Washington, DC.
Under his influence, humanity gained a status window system and awakened skills.
It was a moment that could not be explained scientifically.
First discoverer.
They grew quickly, and America, where God took root, produced outstanding awakened people compared to other countries.
At this point, Taehyun couldn’t help but ask.
“Then the update of humanity is….”
“Yes. The moment to spread the power of God to the world. “It means upgrading the status window system.”
“….”
Expanding the limits of the status window system?
It was a series of amazing stories.
If it were said by religious people, it would be enough to be criticized as a cult.
However, the person who said those words is the head of the United States Players Association, and the target of that nonsense is right in front of us.
I couldn’t just ignore it.
‘No name? god? I’m going crazy. It would be easier to understand that archdukes mate.’
It was when Taehyun thought that.
[You are a little different.]
“…!!”
A low-pitched voice of unknown gender.
I heard the monster’s language in my head.
Taehyun looked around.
“I guess I’m curious about where this place is.”
Kevin Lee looked like he had been caught.
Taehyun ignored Kevin Lee and expanded his mood.
[There is nothing to worry about. My voice will only be heard by you.]
“….”
Only then did Taehyun look at Noname.
It certainly seemed like the other three people couldn’t hear their voices.
More than anything.
‘This guy… is he reading my thoughts?’
The ‘king’ I met before returning had such an ability.
As I was thinking, I heard a voice again.
[It is a very simple principle, so there is no need to be surprised. One who has returned to the power of the king.]
In those words.
Taehyun couldn’t help but be surprised.
* * *
God speaks the language of monsters?
‘That’s nonsense.’
That alone is enough to make you doubt the existence in front of you.
Knowing about ‘the power of the king’ and ‘return’ was a different matter.
[It’s a monster. That’s not wrong either.]
This time, Noname read Taehyun’s thoughts and hit the player.
Meanwhile, Association President Kevin Lee was infusing magic into God.
The way to communicate with God is to send a signal using S-class magical power.
There should definitely be some reaction at this point.
God was just deflecting his magic power and showing no reaction.
The only member who has changed from before is Kim Tae-hyun.
‘Couldn’t he have been in contact with God?’
no. That can’t be possible.
Shin has never attempted to talk to anyone who has visited this place before.
Kevin Lee also met God through the president of the Sentai Players Association.
It wasn’t until I became president of the players’ association that I got the ‘permission’ to talk to him.
That was why I informed Taehyun of the existence of God.
Anyway, God is in America.
Taehyeon, who saw the existence of God with his own eyes, had no choice but to cooperate with the United States.
However, the situation happened suddenly.
Magical power bloomed from the god’s body.
It was not just brilliance.
It was pure white and dark, yet dazzling.
“What is this…!!”
“…!!”
The other three people were equally embarrassed.
Michael Gore and Cody Cruz waited for Kevin Lee’s orders.
Taehyun instinctively surrounded his body with dark red magic power.
[Many things have become distorted due to your return.]
Taehyun’s body, unable to even open his eyes properly, twitched once again.
[Why are you so surprised? If I had already met the king, I would have experienced this level of power.]
God mentioned the king once again.
This man knows the king.
That too in quite detail.
Taehyun couldn’t help but ask.
‘Are you… a ‘king’ too?’
Demon Beast King Orgal. Demon King Beelzebub. Rosaria, the queen of nightmares. Vampire Lord Igmun.
They are all self-proclaimed kings.
So god.
It didn’t seem strange even if the guy in front of me was a king somewhere.
However.
Taehyun’s prediction was greatly wrong.
[That’s not a word that suits me. I am just an observer.]
‘Observer?’
[How about it? Have you achieved the life you wanted?]
The life Taehyun wanted.
The last moments of my past life came to mind.
SSS grade monster Asmodeus.
The day when he died a helpless death and returned to the power of the king.
The life of a player that he could not achieve in his previous life.
I decided to become the best player in the world.
And now.
Since he was standing shoulder to shoulder with Cody Cruz, who was the best in his life, he had achieved his goal to some extent.
‘What does it matter to you that I achieve my goals?’
[A great power has been used for you. It goes without saying that a commensurate price is needed.]
‘Price?’
[I think it’s time to break the chain of reincarnation.]
‘What on earth are you talking about…’
It was a time when I was confused by an incomprehensible sound.
Countermeasures were prepared for God’s unexpected actions.
“Player Taehyun Kim, let’s get out of here first.”
Kevin Lee took the first step.
“….”
Before I knew it, the space was shaking.
Taehyun couldn’t take his steps easily.
“Let’s go out. “If we’re trapped here, even we can’t guarantee our survival.”
Michael Gore added an explanation.
“….”
Nevertheless, Taehyun remained steadfast.
“Why are you doing this?”
Even Cody Cruz looked puzzled.
This is because the Kim Tae-hyun he knows is not reckless enough to act recklessly in a place like this.
However, the opinions of the three people were no longer important to Taehyun.
[Do you want to know the truth? If so, unlock your magical power.]
“Player Kim Tae-hyun!”
Michael Gore started yelling at Taehyun, who did not respond.
Opening up magical powers here and now is the same as being hostile to the United States.
‘But I don’t know when I can come here again.’
The worries didn’t last long.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
Dark red magical energy bloomed from Taehyun’s body.
“Kim Tae-hyun player, what is this…!!”
“Regain your magic.”
“It is a hasty action.”
Despite the three people’s warnings, Taehyun did not withdraw his magic power.
“I am. “I need to know the truth.”
“This action…”
Cody Cruz was about to say something.
“…!!”
“What is this…!!”
The air around me began to change.
The density of air began to change due to horsepower.
The source of magical power was God.
Kwasik. Kwazijic.
A crack appeared in the space.
If things continued like this, the only entrance, the warp gate, would disappear.
If you can’t get out now.
‘Survival cannot be guaranteed.’
Nevertheless.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
Taehyun increased his magic power to maximum.
The space crack accelerated as it collided with Noname’s magic.
“For now… let’s get out.”
Kevin Lee gave an order with difficulty.
Breathing was already becoming difficult.
Michael Gore and Cody Cruz agreed.
‘Kim Tae-hyun, what on earth are you thinking?’
Taehyun’s eyes had suddenly turned red.
“Cody!! hurry!!”
Cody Cruz left the space late at the shouts of Kevin Lee and Michael Gore.
closed space.
Only Taehyun and Shin remained there, glaring at each other.
