The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 480

Episode 480. Innate evil (2)

Thought.

Liu Wujunchun’s will that even death could not break.

It was falling apart miserably.

It seemed like there was a level of helplessness.

With a single knife.

It is another level different from the elf who separated his body and head.

Liu Wujunchun’s tenacity did not break even when his head hit the floor.

“I guess there’s nothing good about making a fuss over and over again.”

Paimon, who continued speaking calmly, was not impressed at all.

Nevertheless, Liu Wujunchun’s thoughts were thoughtful.

How can I get out of this crisis?

‘…If it’s Lee Ho-yeol.’

Yes, if it is Lee Ho-yeol.

Honorable Paimon.

I might be able to deal with that high-ranking demon lord.

‘It’s about capturing the enemy.’

Liu Wujunchun’s gaze turned towards the people of Antonium.

If possible, through the hands of brainwashed transcendents.

I wanted to control the lives of the people.

‘Clearly the message didn’t come to mind.’

Even if the status ailment [Brainwashing] is still effective.

In fact, the transcendentals did not act according to their own will.

No, it goes beyond that level…

“I get that feeling when I look at you.”

Penetrates the shell called oxidine.

I felt a noble gaze staring directly at me.

At that moment, a whirlpool that could not be called human was swirling in Paimon’s pupils. Liu Wujunchun didn’t have the presence of mind to meet Paimon’s gaze.

What was truly questionable was not the Transcendent.

‘…Why?’

The people of Antonium were acting as if they had lost their existence. That’s right, the people who looked up to themselves in fear until just a moment ago.

“The fruit is very sweet today.”

“Hey, is it okay to have a drink at the bar this evening?”

“Dad, we’re going out of the castle tomorrow, right?!”

I was enjoying the peace as if nothing had happened. Yes, like Antonium back in the day when Arcana was just a game. These are the words that follow Liu Wujunchun’s perplexed thoughts.

“Why were you born as a human?”

“…?”

“Your malice is so dirty, base, and ugly that it can be compared to any demon in the demon world. In that sense, I envy you.”

What are you talking about?

An unexpected insult.

I was filled with emotions, but I couldn’t express them.

Shuoooo.

“…!”

Paimon’s swirling pupils are beyond bizarre.

Because it was enough to inspire awe.

Paimon’s serious voice continues.

That’s also true of Liu Wujunchun’s thoughts.

These were not words addressed even to Oxidine, who was just a shell.

“I would have been able to drink with you because I wasn’t a devil.”

…Clicking glasses together?

Liu Wujunchun quit trying to think about the meaning.

Now is not the time to be swayed by idle thoughts.

My purpose that did not break even after death.

The throne of the empire is just around the corner.

‘If only I could take the throne, I would…!’

The hidden class [Tyrant] can unleash its true potential.

If I activate the [authority] function that allows me to rule the empire, I will create my own kingdom that no one can surpass, even if it means unifying the world…. “

But it’s done.”

…Ttu-duk!

As soon as Paimon’s words fell, Oxidine’s body twisted. My limbs began to crumple like paper dolls, and my spine, ribs, and finally my skull were all crushed miserably.

As if caught in a whirlpool.

In agony.

Liu Wujunchun gritted his teeth.

‘Paimon I won’t die…! No, you can’t die!!’

His strong thoughts did not allow him to forget the existence of the skill [Tyrant’s Succession].

If someone wears my crown.

I can be resurrected just as I took over Oxidine’s body.

Jerk.

But as I said before, Paimon’s swirling pupils are exactly that.

I was looking at the essence of Liu Wujunchun.

Finally, the crown.

Liu Wujunchun’s thoughts.

I was caught in Paimon’s grasp.

Even if it is wrapped in a grandiose way because it is a thought, in the end.

It was nothing more than a cry in the palm of my hand.

“Looking at it again makes me curious.”

Humans and demons are different.

Because I was born as a noble demon king. Paimon knew that fact better than anyone else. However, sometimes we encounter scenes that we cannot believe even when we see them.

For example, like now.

“You are someone who will benefit me in many ways.”

A new world witnessed through the magical eye.

It was a world of adventurers that was different from both the Demon World and the Arcana Continent.

A mixed-blood demon was running rampant there.

“The evilness of your nature will be an inspiration for mixing mixed blood.”

The moment I heard those words.

?!?

Liu Wujunchun’s thoughts dwelling in the tyrant’s crown thought intensely.

“then.

accept me

I can give you what you want.?

But Liu Wujunchun’s longing.

Passs.

?…?!?

It began to scatter into the air along with the crushed crown.

It was the same with resignation.

It was finally completely over.

Paimon spat out as he looked at Liu Wujunchun, who had completely disappeared.

“I can’t believe it.”

Then he looked at the peaceful Antonium.

At the same time, I looked at the transcendental people who had fainted and collapsed on the floor.

Everyone did it because they wanted to.

“I never thought I would do something like this to reunite with you.”

Furthermore, I never thought I would envy humans, even if only for a moment.

The incarnation of Paimon.

The gaze turns to the man who had collapsed and was watching everything.

“You must have seen a terrible sight.”

“….”

“But don’t blame me. Wouldn’t you need at least one witness? “Only then will I be able to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings between you and me.”

Eventually, Paimon’s fingertips, which were holding the teacup, dispersed.

The whole body turns to dust.

The wind causes the teacup to fall to the floor.

Clink.

Paimon’s incarnation appears to have completed its work.

It completely turned into dust and disappeared from the Arcana Continent.

A man who witnessed the entire situation because it was Paimon’s intention.

Seongryun Baek.

he stuttered.

“…this is crazy.”

What did I just see…?

*

I gathered together the news that came through.

“When I hunted the second great monster, I noticed a change in them! It certainly looked like he had escaped the monarch’s brainwashing!”

Nam Cheol-min spoke on behalf of the Eastern Crusade Allied Forces.

Let’s hear the story.

I heard everyone had quite a struggle in the Prototype Crack.

I cleared my throat and swallowed.

‘Hehe.’

It’s because I broke it all down through the use of words.

I didn’t really know the structure of the prototype rift, but it seemed like it was helpful to the players to be able to communicate because it was connected to reality.

All meetings must always be strict and serious.

“This is enough.”

I barely managed to break Granfell’s stubbornness.

At that point, the meeting was dismissed.

More than anything, everyone seemed in desperate need of rest.

‘It’s hard to just jump.’

Didn’t you run into the Great Monster Raid as soon as you got out of the Prototype Crack? Because other players don’t have the [Blessing of the First World Tree] like me.

‘So please understand, Granfell.’

Immediately afterwards I spoke to Marcelo.

“I have witnessed the valuable fruits that God has borne.”

…Valuable fruits?

‘What did I see again? Oh!’

I was shocked because of the sins I had committed all along.

Fortunately, that wasn’t my story.

Three guild masters of a grand alliance.

“It was a definite oddity for them.”

Right.

Have all three entered the realm of Kii?

In fact, I could see Ssaksu already.

‘It would be similar if I was holding on to the doorknob.’

That talent isn’t going anywhere.

They have been flying and crawling rankers since the early days of the Arcana Continent. I, Lee Ho-yeol, am entering a realm of eccentricity that I would have never been able to reach without Granfell.

I will praise you.

And I will praise you too.

Hoyeol, you did a great job of recruiting such a reliable ally.

By the way…

“The Magic Tower will quickly follow in your footsteps.”

The value of the name was very important.

[Great Master of Wei]

Honestly, I didn’t know what I did. All I could do was spread my shoulders and chest proudly, accuse myself of not knowing, and pretend that I could do it…!

‘I can’t raise my face because I’m embarrassed by the praise.’

Still, he doesn’t show it.

Yes, it’s okay to be flattered by Marcelo’s words.

Because there was still something left to resolve.

I asked seriously.

“Did you capture Yugweed’s magic trace, Marcelo?”

“Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to capture anything.”

“Right. “It’s not your fault.”

Yugweed and Great Sage Rise are clearly caught up in the prototype rift. The field transformed by the great monsters was restored to its original state, but their whereabouts were still unknown.

The cause of the situation is revealed in a Granfell-style speech.

“Time is something that no one can control.”

Because the times and locations involved in the prototype rift were different.

However, there is no solution.

I continued.

“So we can’t waste time. Hiel.”

Highel appears at my call.

The reason for calling HiL is simple. It was the spirits of the Arcana Continent who first brought news about Yugweed and the Rise Orc Auction.

“Hiel Chrysiad Four Seasons Leaf.”

I don’t think there is a need for a general statement between us, but…

“I will carry out any order as my lord wishes.”

Will that be fixed just because I say it?

I gave up.

Got to the point.

“As of this hour, summon all spirits.”

“…!”

Marcelo was a little surprised by my words.

Marcelo had extensive knowledge about all existing magic thanks to being the founder of theoretical magic. Knowledge of elemental magic would be no exception.

Marcelo cautiously opened his mouth.

“I’m sorry, but my lack of insight did not follow what you said. Even if the spirit world is as strict about procedures as the human world, the hierarchy only applies to the same attributes…” This

is a question that can easily be raised.

It is a spirit classified as mature.

To make it easier to understand, shall we give an example of the magic tower’s contract spirit?

Senior Spirituality Wizard Feiyan’s contract spirit was the high-ranking flame spirit Fire Drake. However, the only ones that obey the Fire Drake’s commands are fire spirits of the same attribute.

Payan said so.

-“So, even our skilled wizards don’t listen to me properly? Of course, there is no set training course for elemental magic, but…”

I thought at the time.

‘Maybe it’s because I’m always mumbling so I don’t understand.’

It was Senior Payan, known as a glutton in the Mage Tower. Every time we ran into each other, we hid food under the sleeves of our robes. However, I spoke harsh words to Payyan…. No, there was no need to point out the behavior.

Of course.

‘Because you’ve never done that in front of me.’

Because Fayan must have watched what I did to Senior Benshi.

It’s not strange to be careful…

Anyway, I answered Marcelo.

“You are right, Marcelo. Even if it is a strict hierarchy, it is only effective for those who have the same attributes as oneself. Even if he were the Spirit King, he wouldn’t be able to overcome that limit.”

This meant that although one could be intimidated by the intimidation of rank and obey, one would not truly obey. So, Marcelo must have raised a question.

‘Because all spirits mean spirits of all attributes.’

But isn’t blood relation something that transcends hierarchy?

Yes, Hiel received the [Blessing of the First World Tree].

It is a direct descendant {unique spirit} of the World Tree.

‘Everyone has no choice but to gather together, right?’

Once we get together.

Wouldn’t it be possible to overpower the first impression?

Why does it look like someone? Hiel was extraordinary from its appearance.

Leaving behind Marcelo, who still didn’t understand.

Hiel bows his head politely.

“I will follow your orders.”

If you interrogate the spirits.

Even if it’s not a magic trace.

You will be able to get clues about Yugweed and Rise’s whereabouts.

‘Then slowly.’

I will return to Antonium. Unlike the East, the North and West had resolved the situation early and returned to Antonium. You should talk to them too.

“I will remain here and monitor the situation.”

I entered the portal while being seen off by Marcelo.

And the moment you step into Antonium.

I realized it.

A strong presence.

“!”

It’s not a magic trace.

Bad marks.

These are footprints of evil so enormous that it is difficult to just ignore them.

Obvious.

A high-ranking demon lord or a demon equivalent to him had set foot in Antonium. I couldn’t confirm it because there was no mirror, but at this moment, my face must have been as cold as ice.

Anyone who knows me at all.

So much so that no one even said a word.

However, there was someone approaching towards me.

And I him.

I stared at the man.

Then he said:

“…Mr. Lee Ho-yeol, who are you?”

Lee Ho-yeol.

What are you asking when you clearly know the three letters of my name?

…Wait, no way.

‘Does this person know my full name?!’

I was about to ask a question, but was shocked when I saw the man’s face.

A man covered in blood who does not belong in peaceful Antonium.

Do you know what happened in Antonium?
