00643 Gehenna. ————————————————– ———————-=
We finally succeeded in passing and leaving the Iron Mountains. Now there is no need to look at the surrounding scenery. Because the message floating in the air was the clearest evidence.
This message would have been printed not only to me, but to all users belonging to the expedition.
‘One, two, three… .’
I counted each number in my head.
And then I counted exactly 3 seconds.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Tremendous cheers, as if a new continent was leaving, rang in my ears. The chorus of users resonates on the ground and spreads far and wide across the sky. At least at this moment, everyone seemed to be shouting as one, regardless of whether they were east, west, south, or north. The fact that you have passed the Steel Mountains must be such a joy.
“Merchionary Lord! “This is a message from the Commander-in-Chief!”
As time passed and the shouting showed no signs of subsiding, Han So-young eventually sent a messenger. Since it was lunch time, he told us to find a suitable place.
I gladly agreed to comply with the request. I happen to know a suitable place nearby, and users in the back will also want to quickly see the scenery of the new continent.
I immediately raised my hands and shouted in a loud voice.
“Let’s all line up and let’s go!”
And the resumed advance was barely able to stop after about 30 minutes when it reached a point where a clear stream flowed.
The atmosphere of the entire expedition was still lively. Han So-young probably also judged that normal marching would be difficult in this atmosphere, so he sent a messenger to find a suitable location as quickly as possible. The intention was to calm the excitement to some extent through mealtime.
‘The expedition is not over until the city is discovered.’
While admiring Han So-young, who maintained her cool-headedness even in this situation, I took my time and slowly looked around. Before we knew it, the clan members had begun preparing meals.
Hanbyeol Kim was walking somewhere, looking around as if she was looking at the scenery. Baek Han-gyeol cried, wiping his eyes with his clenched hands, and Jeong Ha-yeon was busy comforting him.
The four members, Ahn Hyun, Lee Yu-jeong, Jin Su-hyeon, and Sasha, were happy as they chanted “Manse” and played Ganggangsullae, while Pyo Hye-mi, or rather Jegal Hae-sol, danced round and round while holding the hand of Cha So-rim, who smiled awkwardly.
Go Yeon-ju, who was preparing a meal, tried a little bit of stew and said with a disappointed look, “It would be nice if there was milk…” .” he muttered. Won Hye-soo, who happened to be passing by her, suddenly blushed and ran away, covering her breasts with both arms. As Go Yeon-joo tilted her head, Im Hanna, who was helping her prepare the meal next to her, smiled bitterly.
Kim Dong-seok and Park Da-som were giggling as if they were having so much fun, while Nam Da-eun and Vivien were sitting close to each other and having a heated discussion. Park Hyun-woo clenched his fists and looked south alone, “Ugh!” I screamed.
The three people, Seon Yu-un, Woo Jung-min, and Heo Jun-young, sat with their backs to each other and remained silent. On one side, Shin Jae-ryong laid out a sleeping bag on the seat and carefully put Ansol down, and then Goo Ye-ji crept up and started poking Ansol on the cheek.
Then I took out a piece of tobacco, lit it, and let out the smoke while looking toward the south. Cumulus clouds were flowing in groups in the sky, and below them, the grassy meadow shadowed by the clouds stretched for a long time. It was a truly peaceful scenery and scenery, but in fact, it was also a place with painful memories for me.
‘Area 4.’
This was the area named Region 4 in the first round and was the place where the battle to recapture Atlanta took place. At that time, when they were almost on the verge of victory, the enemy army suffered massive damage from the Hell Attack that was summoned using witches in an almost self-destructive attack and had to retreat. Afterwards, I remember not being able to even go to Atlanta until the Duke of Hell was reverse summoned.
Thinking back on that memory made me feel a little depressed, but I quickly shook it off and took a deep breath of air. And like other users, I decided to enjoy this situation. Cha Hee-young, who was a witch, is now in my hands, and one kick for her is just one kick. Because she’s in her second round now.
Yes, there is currently no material anywhere for the Prince of Hell to be summoned.
“Great! “I am the first!”
“What! “I’m first!”
Thinking that, I suddenly turned my attention to the sound coming from next to me. Then, I was able to witness the sight of the four people who had been playing Ganggangsullae earlier, all with their heads in the stream. Ahn Hyeon, who must have gulped down the stream, raised his head and said, “Kya!” I sigh and wipe my mouth.
“Isn’t the taste of water funny? “I feel a refreshing feeling permeating my whole body!”
“that’s right! “It has a slightly tangy taste, and it feels like it energizes my body!”
Lee Yu-jeong then raised her head and nodded in agreement. Soon, I laughed to myself as I watched Jin Soo-hyun take a stance to feel the internal changes. What do you expect from a mere stream?
As we entered a new continent, it is understandable to hope that something special will happen.
Afterwards, four people said, ‘The treatment may be effective.’ They gathered their opinions and attempted to soak Ansol in the stream, but it failed as Shin Jae-ryong warned them in a stern voice not to play with sick people.
The users who watched the series of processes giggled, and I walked away to find a quiet place. Because the four idiots kept insisting that the stream had special effects, there was no way to suppress the embarrassed feeling.
‘The stream must also be quite unfair.’
Thinking foolish thoughts to myself, I sat down in a suitable place. And I slowly closed my eyes, feeling the wind blowing. After doing this for a while, memories of the past three years pass through my mind one by one.
‘I finally came to Atlanta.’
And that in just three years. If there were other first-time users other than me, it would be a lie.
But I eventually did it. I had to do it. We succeeded in getting to Atlanta in a much shorter time than it took for the first round.
In other words, the goal of returning home, which I had only felt vaguely for a while, was now starting to become clearly visible.

Gray world.
A barren world where the sky is colored gray and the devastated land is colored ash. A very dull world filled with only dead energy that cannot be found even if you wash your eyes. A world where everything is fixed, giving the illusion that time has stopped.
Those who know the existence of this space refer to this world as ‘infinite hell.’ It is called.
Infinite hell.
At first glance, it looks similar to the demon world where demons are active, but in reality, it is a much more dangerous place than that. It was the lowest level of the eight hells, and at a glance it was not a world where life could live. No matter where you look, all you see is gray and empty space, a dead space.
However, if there is one thing that stands out, it is the sky-high Fish Tower placed in the very center of the Infernal Hell. Although it was a world where nothing was visible even when looking in all directions, the only fishing tower boasted an overwhelming size that could be seen even from afar.
It was strange. The only thing visible in the gray world was a towering fishing tower, but there… . To be exact, the presence emanating from underneath the fish tower was enough to fill the entire hell.
Clang, clank… .
At that time, an unpleasant metallic sound began to sound somewhere in the gray world.
The source of the noise was none other than a skeleton walking towards the fish tower.
It’s not just a skeleton. It was about the size of an average adult man, but judging by the black armor that constantly made unpleasant noises and the sword that gave off an attractive reflective glow, it was clear that it was a warrior or a knight. Above all, the musical instruments flowing from the hollow pupils under the pointed horn helmet showed that the skeleton was an unusual being.
Not long after, the Skeleton Knight reached his destination. After arriving at the fish tower, the skeleton’s behavior was very strange.
He lowered his pupils as if he could not bear to make eye contact, then knelt down and prostrated himself. So much so that his hair was braided to the ground.
“The back section has been occupied.”
And then there was a harsh voice that sounded like grinding iron.
There was a fish tower in the direction where the Skeleton Knight was prostrating, and someone was clearly sitting under the fish tower. He was the owner of the presence that had filled hell for so long.
But didn’t you hear what the Skull Knight said? All I can hear is a rustling sound, as if the records are being read, but no answer.
Nevertheless, the Skeleton Knight did not show any movement and maintained its prostrating posture.
“We have confirmed that among the invaders, there are those who entered the former super-heat zone.”
Sarak, Sarak… .
“It’s not just that. “Three additional beings with similar power have been detected, and we have also confirmed that there are several beings of the same level as the previously ingested entities.”
Sarak, Sarak… .
“The scale is incomparable to the last invasion. If things continue like this, the Daegyuhwan section may be breached in one go like last time.”
Sarak, Sarak… .
“Grand Duke, make a decision. If you would just give orders to our punitive force… .”

widely!
It was that moment. Just as the record was being read, the sound of it being violently closed was heard.
Crrrrr!
Then there is the destructive energy that burns something down.
The Skeleton Knight immediately closed his mouth and reflexively shrank his whole body.
It was then.
“wait.”
Finally, a voice came from the being sitting on the fish tower, or rather, the being called the Archduke. It was a voice filled with strange magical power that could not be dared to be encountered.
At first glance, the fact of the invasion reported by the Skeleton Knight did not seem to give the Archduke any inspiration. The voice itself was a very beautiful tone with a feminine tone, but the low voice did not show any level of elevation, as if it had no interest in it at all.
“If you wait, it will come by itself.”
When the voice was heard once more, light flashed in the gaping eye sockets for a moment.
The Skeleton Knight cautiously opened his mouth.
“If you come… .”
“Didn’t I tell you to wait?”
That was it. The moment the Archduke’s voice stiffened, the Skeleton Knight slowly stood up and bowed.
“I will follow your orders.”
With those last words, the Skeleton Knight turned around and started walking slowly somewhere.
Clang, clank… .
Just as the sound of metal was slowly disappearing.
“It’s a dimensional shift… . Heukyeom guy, you’re planning something quite interesting.”
The Archduke, who had been sitting for a while with his chin supported by one hand, suddenly muttered to himself. Then he lifted himself up from his chair, raised his hands and slowly ran them through his hair.
“He was originally a low-level guy who wasn’t worth dealing with… .”
It was a picturesque sight. Hands with dazzlingly white skin covered in soft light. And the smooth fingers that look like they are carved out of jade, reminiscent of jade, are very attractive even at first glance.
That wasn’t all.
Her luxuriant hair was shining brightly like a burning flame. It was producing explosive magical power, as if a lava waterfall was pouring down.
And after a while.
“I’m bored, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to hang out once in a while.”
A faint smile appeared on her plump red lips.
