The End of Delusion (3)
Hela, who can freely enter and exit other people’s dreams, and Ramyu, who can control the space called dreams as she wishes.
Their collaboration created synergy beyond expectations.
‘The effect is clear.’
Hoon, who had been deep in meditation, sat down next to Ramyu, who was sleeping on the bed, holding her hand, and slowly nodded his head while opening his closed eyes.
‘Thanks to you, I was able to overcome the wall one level.’
Of course, it wasn’t just Hela and Ramyu who took part in this joint operation.
Isn’t he the perfect person for this job, as he is optimized to connect people with his “psychic sensitivity” and communication chakra?
A tight connection that brings out the characteristics of the trio of Hela, Ramu, and Hoon.
That was the decisive factor in this dramatic development.
“Phew.”
He took a deep breath, calming down the chakras swirling wildly within him.
The microcosm in my mind began to deepen and exude a presence on a different level than before due to this incident.
Finally, Hoon had reached the deeper level as a practitioner, beyond the upper level.
‘Has it been a little over a month since I started learning chakras? I’d be embarrassed if people found out.’
Of course, strictly speaking, it couldn’t be considered purely a month.
Because while I was dreaming while carrying out this operation, I was able to use Ramyu’s ability to train for over a hundred times longer than others.
A long journey across the dream worlds of countless people in a timeline disconnected from the outside world.
For him, opening the communication chakra was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
“Ugh···.”
At that moment, a faint voice and the sound of someone groaning came from the front.
“Ugh— Kkeuuuang—!”
Ramyu then starts tossing and turning, then yawns and stretches.
Soon, a pair of sleepy, half-open eyes met Hoon’s gaze, blankly looking down at them.
“···Ouch!”
Ramyu, who had been blankly blinking for a moment, suddenly got startled and jumped up from her seat.
Then, he quickly straightened his messy hair, wiped his lips once, and made a blank expression as if nothing had happened as usual.
···It would have been perfect if it weren’t for the pillow marks on her cheeks and her reddened ears.
Hoon, a caring adult who was considerate of the delicate mind of a child, spoke to him without necessarily pointing it out.
“You’re up? Good work. Thanks to you, the work was completed easily.”
Unlike Hoon, who can use his powers to access the minds of others, Ramyu had to actually fall asleep in order to enter the dream world.
That’s why I’ve been sleeping all the time these past few days, so it wasn’t that strange for me to look like that.
“Is it all over? This person named Hela···.”
“He must have gone to catch that hidden mastermind. It probably won’t take too long.”
It looked like they were doing their best to escape, but once they had been caught in the Demon King’s gaze, it was just a meaningless struggle.
No matter how much you fly and crawl, you will be dragged back half-dead in less than a day.
“···That’s fortunate. Still, I think I was of some help.”
Ramyu muttered softly at Hoon’s answer.
Although I agreed to join this operation thanks to his persuasion, it seems that I had been feeling burdened without realizing it.
He looked at her with a strange expression at her timid attitude.
‘It wasn’t just a little bit helpful, you know.’
I couldn’t even imagine how things would have gone wrong without her help.
It wouldn’t have been easy to catch the mastermind who was feeling a sense of crisis like he did now, since he wouldn’t have acted so recklessly.
Just looking at his actions up to now, he seems to be a more cautious person than you might imagine.
“Congratulations, by the way. You’ve finally reached the depths. It was only a matter of time, actually.”
“Thank you. It’s all thanks to you. Come to think of it, Ramyu, you’re already a middle-class person, right?”
“Yes… Fortunately, it seems like the growth hasn’t slowed down that much yet. If we just have enough time, we should be able to somehow climb to the upper levels.”
“What, you can reach the depths in no time. I have to work hard too so that I don’t get caught up.”
Two people talking in a calm tone.
It would have been a shocking conversation if other performers had heard it.
The depth of the chakra was a realm that was called the limit of a human being in other worlds, such as the extreme, the state of the flower, and the master.
Considering that the number of astronomical practitioners who could achieve transcendence in Sabacheon was only a handful, it was an absurd story that they had ascended to the depths in just over a month.
Of course, there will be a gap in level there too.
‘But this is really no joke. Ramyu’s growth rate is already far beyond my expectations. And the chakra that was released is also like that···.’
It was common knowledge among practitioners that the more complex the meaning of a chakra, the slower its growth.
When there are elements called ‘weapon’ and ‘sword’, ‘weapon’ may have better versatility, but ‘sword’, one of its subcategories, has a faster growth rate.
‘In that sense, Ramyu’s chakra is unprecedented.’
The chakra she opened was ‘World’.
It was a name so grand that it felt dizzying just hearing it.
“···Ramy, you must never tell anyone else what your chakra is, okay?”
“Yes? Yes, of course. That’s why I didn’t tell that person named Hela.”
“Yeah, good job.”
Hoon sighed as he patted Ramyu’s small head.
Even Yoon So-Hwi, who was of similar age to her and had overcome training that bordered on abuse since childhood, was just about to step into the middle class.
And yet, he is held up as a genius and everyone has high expectations for him, but if it is revealed that he has opened a chakra as grand as the ‘world’ and that it has already reached the second level…
‘That’s a truly crazy growth rate. The ability itself matches up so well with chakra.’
In the dream world where only the mind exists, one cannot train one’s body or refine and accumulate energy.
All you can do is constant study and arduous mental training.

However, for a chakra practitioner who could grow through inner growth and understanding alone, it was a heavenly training ground.
‘I also benefited greatly from it this time.’
The chakra that reached deep within Hoon’s mind, who opened his eyes half-heartedly, spun fiercely.
If the upper class was considered a top-of-the-line sports car, it is now comparable to the engine of a supersonic jet.
It was only a one-step difference, but the gap was ridiculous.
Woohoo—
The power of communication spread out in all directions around him.
Not only did it cover the entire base of the Sungcheon Yun family, but it also covered the entire city and even beyond.
Hoon’s face hardened as he watched the situation flowing through the chakra within the range.
‘It seems like there are still things to sort out on this side.’
He stood up, slightly turning his neck and stretching his muscles.
Then, he looked at Ramyu, who was blankly looking up at him, and after a moment of thought, he opened his mouth.
“Ramy, do you want to go for a walk together?”
“···A walk?”
“Yeah, you must have been frustrated being stuck here all this time.”
Ramyu, who had been blinking at those words, tilted her head.
But that was only for a moment, and soon Hoon smiled faintly at her, who nodded her head coolly.
***
The outskirts of the city ruled by the Seongcheon Yun family.
“Attack.”
An order was given to the command tent of the Hongsan garrison built there.
“yes?”
“Attack.”
One of the officers, bewildered by the sudden order, asked back, but the general who had given the order still had a serious face and bright red eyes.
Gulp—
The adjutant swallowed dryly, sensing something unusual about him.
I don’t know why the general suddenly gave such an order, but it wasn’t wrong.
Giving correct advice when a superior makes a wrong decision is the basic quality of a competent adjutant.
He opened his mouth cautiously to persuade the general.
“General, wasn’t it just recently that the order to stand by came down? It would be politically burdensome to attack Yun Ga without thinking, so we need time to confirm the facts. And I heard that additional reinforcements are being made in preparation for an all-out war…”
Phew!
The adjutant’s words, which had been going on and on, were not even finished.
His body was flung out of the tent with a snapping sound.
All that’s left are the officers frozen by the sudden turn of events and the general gnashing his teeth fiercely while lowering his fist with blood dripping down.
“How dare you disobey orders in this critical situation?”
The executives who had been hastily adjusting their postures broke out in a cold sweat at the ferocious aura emanating from his body.
I knew that he had been so stressed out lately that he couldn’t even sleep properly, but I couldn’t help but be flustered because he was not the type of person to act rashly toward his subordinates.
“Listen carefully. Those guys are the criminals who insulted the General and the accomplices who are hiding it. How much longer do we have to wait in this situation when we don’t know what kind of hardships the General is going through?!”
A roar of anger burst out and swept through the surroundings.
Of course, war was not a light matter, and there were limits to how much an army could move based on the orders of a single commander.
The only problem was that there were quite a few people who agreed with him.
There was heated debate not only within the garrison but also in various places, including the capitals of various countries.
And such confusion at the top, even if only temporarily, was enough to grant a modicum of autonomy to the frontline troops.
in result.
Hongsanguk’s army began to advance toward Seongcheon Yunga’s ancestral home.
The same was true for the troops of the Qinghai Kingdom stationed across from them.
At the same time, the space near Yun Ga collapsed, and magic practitioners appeared one after another from beyond it.
“Now is the time to repay the favor, General!”
“Joining hands with those criminals. This is my chance to expose their ugly faces one by one!”
“Kuuuuu— I can smell the sweet scent of blood. This is the perfect opportunity to completely erase Yun Ga from existence.”
The estimated number alone is easily in the thousands.
It hadn’t reached the level of an all-out war yet, so the number hadn’t exceeded ten thousand, but considering that they were all recognized practitioners in their own right, it was definitely not a problem that could be easily overcome.
This is the moment when the flames of the great war that went out decades ago are being rekindled.
At this point, winning or losing or cause and effect were not important.
War is the worst monster that not only feeds on blood and resentment, but also brings about a chain reaction of more deaths.
Even the old grudge from decades ago has not been completely washed away, and if something like that happened again, the situation could have gotten worse to the point of no return.
Moreover, if the main character of this war is Seongcheon Yun Ga, who has maintained absolute neutrality until now…
“Oh my, anyway, you have to understand that people are impatient.”
“Why do people act like that when we live in such a wonderful world? It would be nice if everyone got along well.”
“Well, it can’t be helped since each person has different beliefs and values.”
The center of the chaos.
A young man and a girl walked leisurely on the city walls where Yun Ga had settled.
He didn’t seem to care at all about his surroundings, which were extremely tense with the war imminent.
“Hey, you shouldn’t come up here···.”
The Yun family officer in charge of the castle walls barely opened his mouth and took a step back.
An instinctive reaction that occurs without one being aware of it.
Although he realized something was strange and panicked later, Hoon had already passed him and continued talking to Ramyu, who was following him nervously.
“Listen carefully, Ramu. There is no unconditional peace in the world. Everyone has their own thoughts and desires. It would be arrogant to try to prevent all conflicts that arise from this.”
“···It’s difficult. I guess fairy tales are just fairy tales after all.”
Ramyu sighed.
Is this what it means to become an adult?
Of course, as someone who survived in a world that was on the verge of destruction, she knew better than anyone how cruel humans could be and the ugliness of the world.
But I had a slight hope that somewhere in the countless dimensions, there might be a world that was just as happy as in a fairy tale.
“Then is there really no way?”
Hoon smiled happily at Ramyu’s regretful pout.
“No way? There is one very sure way!”
Then he continued speaking with a serious expression and conviction.
Like a prophet preaching the secrets of this world, like a scientist who has witnessed the absolute truth, … and like a poisonous snake whispering corruption into the ears of innocent girls.
“It’s strength.”
The quickest and most certain means of securing world peace was neither firm and sublime justice, nor compassion that warmly embraced the needy, nor wealth that could feed everyone.
“Absolute power that no one can dare to approach!”
A force that cannot be challenged or resisted.
That was the true key to peace that history proved.
“I’ll show you that now.”
Even though he was just beginning to learn chakras, he had a history of crushing deep practitioners.
He who was like that has finally reached a deep realm.
To be honest and frank.
Now there was no one in this world who could do anything to him.
Even if it is a transcendent being that has reached astronomy.
Woohoo—
The energy that was violently spinning inside his body resonated with the world.
Through it, his microcosm opened wide and his sole thought began to force the surrounding phenomena.
The mental power of the avatars who have reached the realm is concentrated and their thoughts are accelerated beyond their limits.
Unlike in the past when we could not properly utilize the abundant resources due to limitations in output, now that we have reached the realm of depth, we have the minimum qualifications to mobilize them.
In an eternity of time when breathing and all bodily metabolism cease.
Only the chakras drawn from his own microcosm spun endlessly.
I couldn’t use the runaway thought.
If they, the elite of each country, make a mistake, it will be irreversible.
‘Communication is about getting through without any blockages. So, forcing my will into someone can also be seen as a part of communication.’
The chakras that rotate like wheels and the skills such as “Root of the Ideal,” “Psychic Communication,” and “Wheel Sword” are all combined into one.
The mental ripples from there spread out in all directions.
To the entire realm of Yun Ga beyond where you are now, and to the thousands of practitioners who are approaching this city with ill intentions.
and···.
[stop.]
—And so the war ended.
