Chapter 953.
Episode 235. Toxicity (2)
was penetrating into the wound.
If it wasn’t for the bodies of Mandokju and Changseong, their cheeks would have melted and had holes in them. Jin quickly distanced himself from Jito and glared at him.
‘Heung Ah, is it because of what Ayula did to me? Even though he touched my thorn, he was fine as if he had been cut by an ordinary sword.’
Jito recalled the choice Ayula had made on the day he briefly descended into the Holy Land.
It was true that Zito had lost some of his strength as a result. About 20% to 30% Zito didn’t think that it would catch his ankle now, but seeing Jin in good condition made him feel uncomfortable.
As this sub-space is Jito itself, it has properties that respond according to his inner side.
For some reason, I felt uneasy and started to form more thorns in the subspace. Thorns were sprouting from the destroyed land and the soaring black rocks in the air.
Even where Jin was standing, thorns sprouted.
However, Jin did not avoid the thorns. The thorns were shattered by Jin’s golden aura before they even penetrated the ground.
“You seem to be the type to talk a lot when you’re scared.”
[Hah?]
“I felt it even when I came this far. You were gathering the power of pain by driving the demons crazy to deal with me.”
[Ah, it may seem that way. But the reason I made my babies eat each other wasn’t particularly conscious of you. That’s just… a process to reach the end.]
“The end… Are you referring to a new world in which the order of suffering you seek has arrived?”
[Yes, that’s it. what do you think pain is? Jin Runkandel.]
Zito’s eyes, which had always been playful and lighthearted, hardened for the first time.
“Well, I never thought about it.”
[The essence of pain is to eventually make the target fall into trance. It means that when the order of suffering arrives in the world, there will be no need to compare inconsequential things like I am better or you are better.]
“In other words, it means that you want to purify the world with pain.”
Suddenly, Kingelo came to mind.
In terms of acting to give the world the ‘perfection’ they seek, there seems to be little difference between Kingelo and Zito.
[You could call it a kind of purification. I was born in pain. The pain that Kingelo, the true king and creator of life, the sun god suffered, was embodied in the existence of me.]
Jito put the thorn ax on his shoulder. The thorns burrowed into his shoulders, and the sound of flesh tearing and popping was heard.
[Therefore, it can be said that there is no one in the world who knows the nature of pain better than I do. In the early days of my birth, I made numerous attempts to be freed from pain.]
“It seems that such a strange taste came about. To feel pain as pleasure.”
[Preference is an area of choice. In my case, I didn’t have a choice. Do you think you can live a normal life while drowning in boiling water every day? Even boiling water is simply explained to aid understanding. The pain I have experienced so far cannot be expressed in words or text.]
[My point is this. I think this world should suffer as much as I do. And in the past, it is to be engulfed in an endlessly deep and infinite sea of pain and forget oneself.]
“Am I still awake and living as your toy?”
[yes. But the reason I chose you as a toy isn’t just because you look delicious… It’s the same reason I picked Orgal as my successor.]
“Orgal?”
[He has the ability to perceive changes in the world. It means that you can recognize that a part of the world is erased or changed by someone or a certain phenomenon.]
-[Fate is so mean sometimes… Your god is like that too. isn’t it? Murakan.]
-[…How did you know this place and suddenly popped out?]
-[There aren’t many things I don’t know about in the world that’s known or hasn’t been erased or altered. You know?]
Suddenly, Jin recalled the conversation between Murakan and Orgal at Temar’s second tomb. In the record, Orgal said there was a way to save Temar, who had become a monster.
[When the age of suffering arrives, the world will undergo many changes regardless of my will. Just like the witch did… So you need someone who can recognize the fact and correct the error. I thought that only Orgal could perform the task, but seeing you changed my mind. The Age of Pain can only be completed with Orgal and you.]
“I see. So, is the complex explanation over?”
Although he said it was a complicated explanation, Jin could now clearly understand the purpose of the immortal named Jito.
He just wants to take revenge on the world.
Therefore, since there was no need for people to be under his rule, he used the demons as consumables, and he would not have any intention of saving all life in the world from now on.
‘The error he said is probably referring to a variable that threatens the order of suffering. And he wants to use me and Orgal as a safety device to remove those variables.’
I got goosebumps.
Zito is not imperfect like the titular god born of Rosa, nor divided like the kings of the Black Sea. He was the purest and most gigantic incarnation of madness among the formidable enemies Jin had ever met.
[You can’t stop me, Jean Runkandel. Your will is high, but in the end it’s not as perfect as mine. I am the product of Kingelo’s suffering and his resentment as he shaped and watched the world. It is a mass of agony that has been passed down from the beginning.]
Jjaeong! Kagagagak-!
Jito formed a body on Jin’s right side and wielded a thorn axe. The moment Sigmund and the thorn ax collided, the gold mines formed on the blade temporarily dissipated.
Jito had a mischievous look on his face again. However, the thorn ax became more violent and poisonous.
Jin also raised his energy accordingly, but there was a limit.
‘If you want to spread the sun split with full power, you have to make a gap, but in order to do that, a lot of power must be consumed…’
That was the problem.
This fight had a structure that could not reach the end unless a lot of effort was put into the process.
‘I feel sorry for Murakan. If he was with me now, I would have been able to create a gap without overdoing it enough. It might be better to wait for Murakan to come and buy some time rather than going for a short fight.’
As initially thought, if you choose a short fight, there is a risk that you will spread the sun slicing with insufficient power, and a long fight will risk that Murakan will not reach this place.
Right now, Jin didn’t know what the situation outside the door was like.
It is impossible to confirm whether the dimensional gate leading to this place is still open or has disappeared after Jito caught and dragged him in.
‘According to Jito, Murakan and the others are dealing with Kelliac. It’s also a matter of whether Murakan can continue fighting after facing him… I’m tired in many ways.’
Soon Jin came to a conclusion.
The gold mines spread around Jin started to become more and more ferocious.
‘Anyway, if you don’t get the chance to use Sun Split, there’s no chance of winning. I don’t know what will happen while waiting for an ally who doesn’t know when to come.’
I don’t know how much force it would take to make Zito’s gap. In the end, if you couldn’t wear him down, victory was impossible.
[Oh, it seems you finally have the heart to fight properly, right? Yeah, it’s not cool to see you arguing about this and that!]
Jin rushed at Zito and shouted at Sigmund. The light-speed thrust from the gold mine penetrated Jito’s chest, leaving a glowing afterimage in the air.
Jito brandished a thorn ax at Jin, who rushed at him with his chest pierced. Even though Jin pushed him, he occasionally knocked out all the thorns that came out from the side and rear, and each time Zito’s attack just barely grazed Jin.
The pain that spread like a tumor with every contact continued to erode his body, but Jin’s movements never changed.
Rather, Jin opened the sky whenever he had a little bit of spare time. It was because he knew that Jito was conscious of the abyss.
[Don’t try too hard to open the abyss. What am I supposed to be a fool for that? It’s just a little annoying. Kiki-kick.]
Big-! The shock wave from the gold lightning broke Jito’s thorn and pierced Jin’s thigh.
Because it was pushed out with a gold mine, it was not deeply embedded. Jin pulled out the thorn that had dug in about a knuckle and closed the distance with him again.
‘It’s easy to get tired, but it just keeps getting faster and faster… Is Changseong originally like this? It didn’t feel like this when I dealt with Paellito before.’
Jin didn’t think too much about Jito from the beginning.
That’s why he only brought Murakan and his party with him when he went to Hell, and he wasn’t taken aback when a fight with Jito suddenly started.
On the other hand, Jito has been predicting a human named Jin Runkandel endlessly. Even to the point where Jin’s strength and abilities begin to wear out.
However, after the fight started, Zito’s thoughts continued to wander. Jin, who was obviously weaker than Paellito in his prime, was clinging to him even more tenaciously.
Of course, Jito didn’t hate Jin like that. The fact that Jin is special also means that when the order of pain arrives later, he can more reliably catch errors.
[It seems like a lot of time has already passed. I don’t know how long time passes. Two days seems to be too short for me. Can you hold out for a day or two? Our Jean Runcandel.]
“If you’re still alive in three or three days, I’ll assume you’re right.”
The moment Jin answered like that.
Jito unconsciously looked up at the sky. Thanks to this, Jin’s sword cut his throat once, but since he didn’t die anyway, there was no problem.
However, the problem was the fact that the sky had now opened and the abyss had been revealed.
It was because it wasn’t Jin who opened the sky this time. The sky is open from the outside.
‘Ah, what is this all of a sudden?’
Jindo raised his head, realizing that an abyss had opened too late.
‘The author…!?’
Across the abyss, I saw a person descending into subspace. He was a person Jin never thought of.
“house owner! Are you sure you are here! house owner…!”
Elona Zipple was speaking in a voice full of rage and urgency.
Ty for the chapter!
