I’m not a Regressor

Chapter 340

I am not a returner Episode 340:

Black Sky (4)

A city covered in dark clouds as thick as fog.

Niflheim, the kingdom of the demons, had neither high walls nor tightly closed gates.

‘If you’re going to come in, come in and see.’

Ohjin laughed out loud as he looked at the gray buildings peeking through the dark clouds.

but.

Who would think that Niflheim would be attacked?

‘Unfortunately.’

Such arrogant thoughts will end as of today.

“Shall we go?”

Ojin walked towards the city covered in black clouds.

They used black cover to hide their presence and entered Niflheim leisurely.

‘Is this Niflheim?’

A city full of dull gray.

The scene covered in dark clouds was reminiscent of a European street during the industrial era.

I slowly walked down the street holding my breath.

I tried to catch any demons wandering nearby and find out about the place where the ceremony was held.

‘There’s no one.’

In the empty streets, not a single demon race or the demon beasts they worked with were visible.

“Tsk.”

Now that it was like this, I had no choice but to find it myself.

Ojin lightly jumped on top of the building and activated the Stigmata of the Canis Hound.

I feel like my sense of computing is expanding.

A view of the city covered by dark clouds came into view along with a musty odor.

“…What is that?”

The center of Niflheim.

Dark clouds were seen gathered together in the shape of a huge dome.

No, not exactly a dome.

‘heart.’

The rumbling black clouds were pulsating as if the heart of a giant had been ripped out.

‘Did the dark clouds covering the city come from there?’

A huge mass of dark clouds, estimated to be several kilometers across, was spreading out across the entire city like blood flowing from the heart through the veins.

“…over there.”

It was not a conclusion reached through instinctive intuition or keen insight.

If you were to ask a three-year-old passing by, he would probably tell you that that was the place for the ceremony.

‘I had no intention of hiding it in the first place.’

Should I say I am glad that I saved myself the trouble of finding it?

Still, I wondered if it was okay to perform this ceremony so openly, even though it was a ritual to unseal the Heavenly Demon, and approached the dark cloud that was pulsating like a heart.

and.

“…It wasn’t that I had any intention of hiding it.”

As I approached the black clouds, I felt a huge force that took my breath away.

This wasn’t something I could hide and sleep on.

A storm of magical power so strong that even if a barrier is placed around it, it will blow away without the barrier.

Ojin slowly walked towards the black clouds.

Grumble, rumble!

I raised my hand to the pulsating black cloud.

When Ojin raised his hand, the magical power that was swirling so fiercely as if it would tear everything that came near to pieces became quiet like a gentle sheep.

I felt a familiarity, like an old friend, in the dark clouds that gently wrapped around my hand.

‘It has to be that way.’

The energy that was wrapped around his hand right now was none other than the energy of the Black Sky.

‘Similar… but different.’

The Black Heaven that one possesses and the Black Heaven that the Heavenly Demon possesses.

The external energy itself was similar, but if you close your eyes and concentrate, you can see that the energies of the two dark heavens are clearly different.

“Something…”

Is it correct to say it’s dangerous?

It was an energy that felt weak, as if I was touching a castle made of sand.

‘Did you say that the dark sky possessed by the Heavenly Demon is incomplete?’

When I first heard that from Cassia, I didn’t understand what imperfection meant.

When I directly touched the Heavenly Demon’s Black Heaven, I was able to see the difference.

‘How were we able to survive in such a precarious condition?’

Dealing with the black sky in such an unstable state was like running through land made of sponge.

The moment you slip and fall, the ground falls down an endless cliff.

“…What on earth do you want to do by doing this?”

Oh Jin, who was looking at the dark clouds with shaking eyes, bit his lip and stepped into the dark clouds.

There was no time to think about the Heavenly Demon’s purpose right now.

“This place…”

The inside of the dark clouds, which I thought would be pitch black, turned out to be brighter than I expected.

I looked up and saw countless stars twinkling.

‘Is this the stigmata that Black Heaven has absorbed so far?’

An enormous amount of starlight that can’t even be compared to Ojin’s.

Why?

The stars shining tightly between the dark clouds gave me a sense of eerie fear rather than beauty.

“????????? ??? ????? ??? ????????????.”

“????????? ??? ????? ??? ????????????.”

As I went inside, I saw hundreds and thousands of demons gathered in a circle and muttering some unknown spell.

Is this what the gatherings of Satan-worshiping cultists are like?

The sight of thousands of demons lying face down on the ground and mumbling incantations was truly bizarre.

‘Is this the ritual?’

Ojin narrowed his eyes and looked at the demons lying on the ground.

A complex magic circle was engraved on the place where the demons were lying down, and as the spell of unknown meaning continued, it sparkled with a dark red light.

‘Is it okay if I destroy that magic circle?’

A short sigh of relief flowed from Ojin’s mouth as he observed the ceremony taking place.

Fortunately, the method of preventing the ritual itself seemed to be quite simple.

then.

‘Let’s prepare this side soon.’

When Oh Jin put his hand into his bosom as if he was trying to take something out.

“…human?”

I saw a demon looking in this direction with his eyes wide open as if he couldn’t believe it.

“Tsk.”

Didn’t all demons participate in the ritual?

I was so focused on the magic circle that I didn’t even notice the guard approaching.

“How could a human being be here…?!”

A demon racer with a confused expression trying to pull out the sword on his belt.

Before the sword was completely drawn out of its scabbard, Ojin kicked his feet and rushed towards the demon race.

Puzzle!

After using the Stigmata of Capricorn to silence the sound of footsteps, he struck the hilt of the sword that was trying to escape from its sheath with his palm.

‘Quickly and quietly.’

Noisy techniques such as depth charges or spear lightning could not be used.

He grabbed the back of his neck to prevent him from screaming and then threw a lightning bolt directly into his head.

“Whoops whoops!” “Kruk!”

A demon racer who fainted with his eyes turning white.

Fortunately, I was relieved that I had subdued it before the commotion grew.

Gurgling! Kuruk!

The black horns on the demon tribe’s forehead trembled and black clouds began to escape.

The black clouds floating leisurely in the air were sucked into the magic circle where the demons were lying face down.

“Intruder, intruder!”

“How can a human break through the dark clouds?!”

“How dare you disrupt the ceremony!”

Several demons who saw the black clouds seeping into the magic circle turned their heads towards where Ojin was.

Darkness is the ability to hide one’s presence.

If you see it with your own eyes, it will hide its presence and end up being discovered.

“Tsk.”

Ojin clicked his tongue and pulled out Dantalian from his belt.

The palm-sized folding knife instantly changed into the shape of a spear.

‘I wanted to watch the ceremony a little longer.’

I was planning on making a plan on where and how to attack, but since I was caught, I had no time to leisurely observe the magic circle.

“Why don’t you just stop worrying about that and keep doing what you were doing? “It’s an important ritual, right?”

“How do humans get information about consciousness…?”

Demons frowning as if they don’t understand.

The appearance of a human being who seemed to know about the ceremony being prepared in utmost secrecy as if it were natural caused a stir.

“How did you get in here in the first place?”

A demon approached Ojin and frowned.

Black clouds surrounded the area where the ceremony was held.

Even if he were a demon with the title of ‘Grand Duke’, it would be impossible to penetrate the clouds of the dark sky.

A human could break through the dark clouds and come inside alone.

It was a situation that was difficult to understand through common sense.

“Weren’t you hiding around here before the ritual started? “I don’t know where I heard it, but I knew about the ritual.”

“Ah, there was a way.”

The demons, who could not even imagine that Ojin had directly manipulated the dark clouds covering the area and penetrated them, began to come up with plausible inferences among themselves.

“So what were you doing hiding like a rat, human?”

Mine came closer and asked in a threatening voice.

Oh Jin shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed expression.

“Of course I came to disrupt the ceremony.”

“…what?”

The seemingly carefree answer caused laughter among the demons.

“Has this human gone out of his mind…!”

A demon with a wildly distorted expression rushed towards Ojin.

Grumble!

Black light flowed from the horn on the demon’s forehead, and black flames burned.

Fiercely burning black flames were aimed at Ojin.

“No, it’s damned even if the bastards give an answer.”

Ojin laughed and swung his spear, splitting the shooting black flame in half.

Kugugoogung!

When the black flame, split in two, hit the floor, a heavy explosion rang out.

“You bastard!”

“Kill that arrogant human!”

Did he sense that Oh Jin’s skills were unusual from the way he easily split the black flame?

The demons surrounding him exchanged glances with each other and simultaneously rushed toward Ojin.

Pajijik Pajik!

The blue lightning is burning.

Every time the spear was swung, a torrent of lightning erupted explosively, burning the bodies of the charging demons.

“As expected, this is better than handling it quietly.”

The magical power of the stigmata became even stronger through the tenth flowering of the Black Heaven.

The demons were helplessly pushed back by the powerful thunderbolt emitted from the highly concentrated magical power.

“Ugh… “Where on earth did such a monster come from?”

The demons looked embarrassed as they saw Ojin’s inaction, which was stronger than expected.

“Are you sure you have the ability to make arrogant remarks about interfering with consciousness?”

A demon who had been thrown away by Ojin’s vicious attack approached, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

“Still, compared to his skills, he’s a bit lacking in intelligence.”

The inaction of a human being who suddenly appeared to interfere with the ritual was truly surprising, but that was all.

The demons surrounded Ojin and twisted the corners of their mouths.

“No matter how strong you are, what are you going to do on your own?”

The eyes of thousands of demons were focused on Ojin.

“Be alone.”

Ohjin smiled and nodded.

As they said, no matter how much Ojin had superhuman strength, he couldn’t face thousands of demons alone.

“So that means I don’t have to be alone?”

“what?”

The demons urgently look around to see if there are any reinforcements nearby.

But no matter where I looked, I couldn’t see anyone other than Ojin.

“What nonsense….”

“Before I came here, I had a fight with a guy named Deimos.”

Oh Jin grinned and put his hand into his bosom.

An extremely simple tactic that allows entry into the Kingdom of Niflheim with minimal damage and requires no training.

It was a ridiculous order, like making hot ice.

The answer was surprisingly simple.

“If it’s Deimos… really?”

“She has a very nice item.”

With a bitter sneer on his face, he took out a golden plaque with the devil’s symbol engraved on it.

Wooooow!

When light was blown into the golden plaque, brilliant golden light spread out in all directions.

In the golden light, heavily armed beastmen and dragon tribes walked out.

“Thank you for your hard work, Oh Jin.”

“Why are you so late in calling me?”

Isabella and Ha-eun, who were standing in front of the heavily armed armies of the beast and dragon tribe, approached Oh Jin.

“Oh, right. I should have said this, but I forgot.”

Haeun, who had her arm around Ohjin’s shoulder, raised her thumb and winked.

“On Your Left.”

What are you talking about?
