Episode 509
Geomjon asked Byeokandanje Jeonghwa.
“What about Cheonma?”
“… … It seems like they are just waiting and watching.”
“I thought he left a message, but how could he not?”
Junghwa shakes her head.
“I was told to tell you this.”
“how?”
“I will join the battle when I am certain that he is Ragnarok. Otherwise, the Heavenly Demon Sect will not move.”
I burst out laughing.
“You wicked bastard, I should have killed you a long time ago.”
The sword of today is the sword of 20 years later. Something was definitely different.
Jeonghwa said to that swordsman.
“Your Majesty, please calm down.”
“……subsidence?”
“Aren’t you facing a great battle? The death of the god was inevitable. It is not the Emperor’s fault.”
“… … .”
“The alliance with Cheonma is only temporary. All you have to do is finish everything and avenge your brother. You just have to kill Cheonma. The Emperor has the power to do so.”
Geomjon felt a little bit more at ease. Shin’s Hyuk-un-young was dead. He died ‘five years ago’.
People don’t change easily. It’s even more outrageous to want to finish the already-determined prophecy of the Book of Revelation. The flow of the world was already as good as set.
Even during this period, Shin’s Hyukyoung tried to start a fight between Cheonmasingyo and Cheonwicheon. This is proof that it was just a matter of timing, but the essence was the same.
The Sword Master doesn’t know whether it was his past or present life. Why did the god do that?
The vice-religious leader of Cheonma who killed Shinui, that bastard named Cheonwol, probably doesn’t even know.
What was the god trying to do? Why was the god so impatient? Why did he go wild like a monster trapped in a wall?
Everything is a mystery.
Also, the sword master still didn’t notice that it was very dark under the lamp.
Ragnarok is real. It just hasn’t woken up. Even though they were family, they didn’t know that the gods were keeping the corpse.
The god is tight-lipped. He is as heavy as iron bars. The god, who died five years ago in this time zone, did not tell anyone that Ragnarok was surrounded by ice. He did not tell anyone how to get there. All of this is inevitable.
Even if it all seems to start with a misunderstanding, this is the flow. This is cause and effect. This is what happened in a past life.
Geomjon fixes his Cheon-i sword and holds it.
In accordance with this, the unmanned people of Cheonwicheon also adjusted their weapons.
Now is the beginning.
Just then, the Death Knight kills all the chimeras around him. He slowly turns his head.
The Sword Lord’s eyes met. And behind the Sword Lord were countless Transcendents, and behind them were another number of Chimeras.
The swordsman felt that the Death Knight was laughing.

The irony is what happened next.
“[Come at once.]”
It was like the scraping of metal. The voice itself was… … just creepy. That was what the Death Knight said.
But who do you do this to?
The swordsman felt that the monster was not saying those words to ‘us’.
“[You’re not coming? I guess I can’t help it.]”
The Death Knight turned his head to the other side.
Then, with a bang, the Death Knight’s body disappeared.
Was it 0.1 second?
Kwaaaaang-!! Kwaaaaang-!! Kwaaaaang-!!
There was a series of tremendous loud noises.
The swordsman opened his eyes wide for a moment. Something was flying towards him. He turned his body slightly to the side. Then, Kwaaaaang.
Something is stuck in the ground.
It was a man.
He looked to be in his mid-30s. He had short hair. He had a thick build and was lying on the floor laughing.
The sword master knows him.
The portrait of Cheonma.
“Haha. Hahaha.”
Yeongjeong laughed. She kept laughing.
The swordsman who was looking down at him spoke bluntly.
“You look very sick. That’s why you were hiding.”
Cheonma didn’t answer. The laughter suddenly stopped.
Cheonma looked up at the sky. Geomjon also looked up at the sky. The Cheonma Shingyo warriors who had been waiting far away and came to this place in an instant also looked up at the sky. The Cheonwicheon warriors were the same. Everyone looked up at the sky.
There it was. Death Knight.
The black glare is imprinted on everyone’s eyes.
In his hand was a sword made of black energy. It was extremely long. Like a longsword.
He held it and spoke in a small voice.
“[It’s been 400 years.]”
“… … .”
“[My teacher’s wish to make this land a place where people can live at least continued for 400 years.]”
The surroundings are plunged into silence.
The Death Knight continued speaking in a creepy, grating voice.

“[I killed only those who needed to be killed. I spared those who needed to be spared. I didn’t touch the children. They were the future. I thought that the future they would live in and look forward to would be better than the world I lived in.]”
“… … .”
“[I killed all those who did not know responsibility, those who knew nothing but exploitation, those who did not know sacrifice, and those who did not know their subject. That is how I died. In a world where trash is dead, trash cannot survive. I accepted my death. Because I had to die. Trash like me who could not protect anything had to die. The trash that had been hiding revived me. There was more trash. I cleaned it all up, and there was no point in trying to clean it up anymore.]”

The black energy emanating from the Death Knight’s body became thicker.
“[Those killed by the chimeras were all innocent. They were the seeds of the future that would live in the world.]”
The swordsman asked.
“Are you Ragnarok?”
The Death Knight chuckled. It wasn’t a laugh. It was just a laugh of absurdity.
“[I don’t know what that bastard is doing. If you wanted to find that being, you should have investigated. You should have gathered information. You should have talked. Why did you destroy the Western Continent? Why did you kill innocent children?]”
What needs to be said must be said. Cheonwicheon and Cheonmasingyo did not dispatch an ‘investigation team’ to this western continent.
The Chimera was sent first, and the main force arrived later. Here, the Chimera was sent and the main force arrived. There is a longer time difference than expected between these processes.
As in the Book of Revelation, a visitor should have come from the west, but he didn’t. So he was made to come.
I sent the Chimera first and made it kill everything in sight. I sent the Chimera first, but there was no response. So I led the main force and headed to the Western Continent.
That’s how we arrived. The main force arrived ‘today’. And we saw it. A monster.
Geomjon answered without hesitation.
“To protect the ‘peace of the world.’”
The Death Knight opens his eyes wide. His expression is one of genuine surprise.
“[You are ‘that one’.]”
“You?”
“[There are a number of people I find extremely disgusting. They are the kind of people who deserve to be called scum, and you are one of them.]”
My eyebrows furrow.
“[Destruction for the sake of world peace? That crazy, faith-crazy bastard is only alive with his mouth open.]”
The Death Knight’s mouth was extremely aggressive. It was a passage that showed what kind of life he had lived, how much weight he had held so far, and how much he had purified his language so far.
“[Even if you are crazy about your beliefs, I don’t think you will be deaf. So listen carefully. The most important thing here is.]”
Geomjon swallowed hard.
“[The fact is that I will kill all of you from now on.]”
Death Knight, Jack Valantier, closes his eyes. The sky darkens. The sun is blocked out, and his body is completely engulfed in darkness.
The Sword Master clenched his fist. It wasn’t just him. Everyone around him grabbed their weapons.
The aura rising from the Death Knight’s body… … has become thicker than before.
When dealing with chimeras, wasn’t his strength electrical?
oh my god.
This is a bit… … severe.
At first, it felt like they were on the same level, but I don’t know. Can you call this a natural scenery? Something, really something is different. It can be seen in the eyes of Geomjon and Cheonma.
Death Knight.
The last thing he said was his eyes, even the whites of his eyes, all black.
“[Today, the world is destroyed.]”
* * *
I was watching the fragments of memory. My head was pounding. I didn’t care. This was a task that required an enormous amount of mental energy. I held back.

Because I had to see more.
Thinking about it is something to do later, though.
If the world goes as you wish, is that the world?
A woman rushed towards Jack Valantier, the former Death Knight. She was faster than the Sword Master and faster than the Heavenly Horse.
While everyone else was preparing for battle, she was ready. A surprise attack.
The Death Knight swings his sword.
Crunch.
Her neck rose to the sky. That was the moment.
Everything stopped.
The Death Knight, the thousands of chimeras, the sword master Hyuk Jin Gang who was trying to respond, and that man named Cheon Ma who I had never seen before but was of a similar level to the sword master.
Everyone stopped.
It moves little by little, as if it’s breaking. Then it stops again. The world shakes.
My headache is getting worse. It’s tingling.
And the damn thing.
The sky splits. Everything before my eyes splits. It returns to its original state.
It moves little by little, then stops again.
The sky splits open again. Everything before my eyes turns to smoke and disperses.
The land was gone, the sword was gone, the heavenly horse was gone, the chimera, the corpse, everything was gone.
at the same time.
In the divided world, two red eyes appeared.
Since when? Since when have those two eyes been there?
It’s as if it’s been there from the beginning. It’s something that exists but you don’t feel it.
It was there, as if I didn’t feel it because the difference was so overwhelming.
Those two eyes move. They look at me.
It wasn’t looking at the Death Knight, it was looking at me. Our eyes met.
Creepy.
I got goosebumps all over my body.
Without realizing it, without even realizing it, I ended up taking a step back.
How long should I say it has been?
No, I don’t know.
The word “how long” just seems… …meaningless.
This is the first time.
This is really my first time.
Feeling overwhelmed by something.
I have never felt this way from anyone, either before or after learning Mana.

I have never received it from my master. I have never received it from Beckerman, the strongest swordsman on the continent, I have never received it from Iskandar, the emperor, or the Sword Lord. I have never received it from anyone.
I don’t want to admit it, but I think I know.
This is it.
awe.
My lips felt dry. No, it wasn’t a feeling. My lips were dry. In the midst of all that, I laughed strangely. I licked my lips with my tongue. I put strength into my legs. The moment I took a step.
The red eyes disappeared.
The world changes again.
This time, it seemed like Jack Valantier, who had become a Death Knight, had turned his head. It seemed like his eyes had met mine.
Tingling, my brain is ringing. Thump, my heart is pounding.
I closed my eyes for a moment and then opened them again.
There was a pure white space.
There was a door in that pure white space.
Snap, my teeth are biting.
The feeling of fear that I had been feeling with my whole body disappeared.
The emotion called anger arises.
What are you trying to do now? What are you trying to say?
The fear was gone, but it was still unsettling. It seemed like there was a residue left. It was mixed with anger. It was an indescribably dirty feeling.
I clenched my fist. I squeezed out all my strength.
All the strength went into my fist, just like when I cut off Gwangjon’s neck. I swung it towards the giant door in front of me.
