Episode 440:
Void Rock.
This is where all information on the upper and lower reaches is recorded.
Also if you ask questions.
“Can we get all the answers…?”
As Taehyun recited, the Elven nodded.
[If you use the Void Log,
you can know not only the King of Underworld’s past actions, but even where he is now.
[Based on that, we might be able to infer the thoughts of the King of the Underworld.]
“….”
[Whether it is the Upper World or the Lower World, it is ultimately just a part of the world created by God.]
Finding the King of the Underworld is his plan that we have not even met yet. It was unexpected that I could find out.
But the timing was perfect.
Because I was reminded of the words of my doppelganger in the world of images and realized the necessity.
“Elven.”
[Hmm?]
There was something awkward about the Elven’s facial expression as he reacted.
It seemed like his crescent-moon-like red eyes were trembling.
“No, right?”
Taehyun asked quietly.
[hmm? What do you mean…?]
“Say no.”
[Ugh. I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I’ll tell you no if you want.]
“…That’s right.”
[….]
“Is it possible to get a glimpse of my thoughts even if it is not a world of images?”
I didn’t know that her silence meant affirmation.
[This is all what happened when you became a contractee of the Divine Beast.]
The Elven excused herself by saying that she was not reading because she also wanted to, saying it was just a bond between beings who accepted the magical power of the Divine Beast.
“I can’t read memories. “Why you?”
[Don’t worry about that. Also, if you are far away from Shinsoo, your memories cannot be read. Didn’t you now know the story I had with that doppelganger?]
Moreover, Taehyun said that it was not easy to read memories because he could not fully accept the power of Shinsoo.
“You said that…”
Taehyun swallowed back what he had said.
Because there was nothing to gain by arguing with her here.
Now I decided to ask more about the Void Rock.
“When did you achieve the rank of grand duke? “If there was such a thing, it would have been better if you had told me sooner.”
Now he bluntly asked me if I was withholding information or imitating Rosaria’s actions.
[Didn’t I tell you? Now it seems that you have met the minimum qualifications to access Void Rock.]
The power to take on a complete Archduke all by himself.
In other words, at least we should be able to remove the Underworld King’s spell.
It was said that only then could one attempt to approach Void Rock.
“If you want to access the Void Rock, you can use it by drawing on the magical power of the Divine Beast, right?”
In response to Taehyun’s question, Elven shook her head and added.
It’s not a matter of horsepower, it’s a matter of class.
“…case? Could it be that he is not worthy of being an archduke?”
The Elven’s explanation continued.
[The roots of the divine tree are here in the underworld. Beyond that gigantic stem is connected to the upper world. It can be said that it is a structure that brings up the level of the upper world and raises the level of the lower world.] This
was something Taehyun also expected.
This is also the message that came to mind when Shinsu was already blooming.
“So what?”
I asked what this had to do with his rank.
[This is a greeting that is so clever that even Bonyo would not normally expect it. [At times like this, you show your innocent side.]
The Elven grinned, saying he didn’t hate that look.
“Get to the point.”
[The Void Rock can be accessed through the ten heavens connected to the Divine Beast. However, for some reason, the Elyos of the Upper World cannot access the Void Rock. That may be the same reason as the reason why they cannot destroy a divine beast once it has bloomed.]
“Of course…”
No matter how much of a prince Beelzebub is.
Among those who are said to be the absolute rulers of the upper world in my memory, there are quite a few who are even worse than him.
However, I had always thought it was strange that they were leaving the divine beast, who was leading the world of the world, alone.
“Don’t you even know the reason? “He spoke as if he had used Void Rock before.”
[This does not mean that you can know anything just because it is original. Void Rock was also limited to connecting for a very short period of time with its power at the time.]
“Then what did you find out in that short period of time?”
[joy. I don’t want to tell you.]
The Elven’s pure white face turned red as she said that.
“….”
[Hmm.]
The Elven, who cleared his throat, changed the subject again and continued his explanation, but it was the Underworld King’s spell.

‘The Law of the Abyss is still at work.’
She also had limits to what she could say.
[Didn’t the new Demon King say that? Words have power.]
She imitated Gilpere’s actions the other day.
I ignored that appearance and looked up at the huge divine beast in front of me.
‘So let me sum it up.’
Some of the giant branches of the divine tree pierce the red sky and touch the heavenly world of the upper world.
Void Rock can be accessed from ten heavens, and for the Elven, even in its heyday, access from three was the limit.
In each heaven, the so-called absolutes all have power comparable to that of the Great Duke, so in order to approach the Void Rock, one must have the power to deal with many of them.
Only those permitted by the Divine Beast can access the Void Rock, and if denied, there is a risk of being ejected to an unknown location.
There is also some kind of magic at work in Sang-gye, so the use of magical power is not smooth.
‘The risk is greater than I thought.’
No matter how strong Taehyun is now, it is only in the lower world.
The upper limit is nothing short of unknown.
The moment you meet the Absolutes of the Upper World in an environment where you cannot properly use your magic, you are surrounded by them.
“Death is certain.”
[There is nothing to despair about. From the doppelganger’s point of view, it may be immediate, but for others, including you, it’s no different than losing contact from the beginning.] So there’s no need to
rush into making a decision.
He asked me to think about it carefully.
‘It’s not wrong.’
Just before Taehyun escapes from the world of images.
He told me why he could feel a strong connection with the King of the Underworld.
‘A being created to protect me…’
He was born the moment he used the power of reincarnation and chose Taehyun as the key.
The power of the Underworld King.
It was said to be the will of ‘predation’.
Ironically, the essence of predation is eating something.
It was also said that it would not surrender until it ate Taehyeon, its host, and King Hagye, the original owner of its power.
In other words, the reason he spoke to Taehyeon was because he lost contact with the King of Hagye, who was his ultimate goal, and became restless.
‘It’s a truly strange relationship.’
In fact, it’s like I’m cooperating with Taehyun, who is almost like an intermediate target, in order to help my final target.
If I had known this fact earlier, I would have been able to tame the doppelganger more easily.
Taehyun complained instead of complaining.
[For now, let’s focus on the immediate situation. Accessing the Void Rock using the Divine Beast is also not an easy task. However, if it were you, you would have come to the same level of enlightenment.]
“The stronger I become, the faster you will regain the strength you lost.”
The Elven said yes, saying it would hurt her mouth.
“So how do I access Void Rock?”
[Try to unleash the power of the King of the Underworld.]
Taehyeon unleashed the power of predation.
Sssssss.
Quadddddd.
The branches of the divine tree stretched out and wrapped themselves around Taehyun’s body as if they had found something desirable.
It is a cider that has already been assimilated once.
Because I know that there is no hostility in Shinsu’s movements.
The broken did not reject its power.
[Look carefully. Now, the true owner of the Divine Beast is not Bonyo, but the contractor.]
The Elven put his colorless magic power into the Divine Beast and whispered something unknown.
The branches of the divine tree wriggled in response.
“What are you talking about that makes me so absorbed…!!”
This is the moment when Taehyun tries to control his magical power in response to Shinsoo’s sudden, strong constriction on his body.
[There’s nothing to make a fuss about. The divine beast is measuring your magical power.]
“Estimation…?”
[Accessing the Void Book is like risking one’s life from Ha-gye’s point of view.]
Therefore, it was said that the new master was to determine whether he was a worthy being.
Even though I had heard it before, it was still so new.
‘It’s as if he has will… no, if he can move this much, it’s no different from having will already.’
As Taehyun was thinking this, a message he had never seen before appeared before his eyes.
Tiring.
[‘Giant power’ measures magical power.]
[‘Giant will’ measures mental power.]
[‘Giant being’ measures the reconstructed body.]
In addition, the message appeared and disappeared several times.
and.
[Try to unlock the power of the two Grand Dukes while maintaining the power of the King of the Underworld.]
‘Two…’ These
are the two powers that Taehyun is most familiar with.
Rosaria’s purple magic power and Typhon’s five-color magic power were controlled.
The divine beast absorbed all of that magic power.
[Measurement is complete.]
[Assimilation is complete.]
Hwaaa!!!
Before Taehyun could blink his eyes at the sudden brightness, he saw ten huge branches stretching out in front of him.
There were ten gates at the ends of those branches.
‘Is this… a door to access Void Rock?’
[Just because you can see it doesn’t mean you can pass through it.]
The Elven, who had already assimilated into the divine beast along with Taehyun, spoke from the side.
With Taehyun’s current magical power, passing through two entrances would be all he could do.
They say that if you enter through the wrong gate, you could end up in a bad situation.
‘Why don’t you tell me about that in advance?’
The Elven shrugged his shoulders, asking what was going on.
[There’s no need to connect right now. It’s something that involves quite a bit of risk, so think about it slowly.]
“Okay, I need to think about this method a little more.”
He said he was satisfied with the fact that the Elven did not rush at him like a moth to fire.
[Now then, turn off the assimilation again….]
Let’s go outside.
This is the moment to say that.
Quaaaaa.
Suddenly, purple magical power began to boil in Taehyun’s body.
Afterwards, Typhon’s five-colored magic power boiled over.
[To get out, you have to reduce your magic power to the minimum rather than strengthening it.]
Even with the Elven’s words, the amount of magic power emanating from Taehyun’s body gradually strengthened.
[…Contractor?]
The Elven tilted her head at Taehyun’s sudden action.
“It looks like Rosaria and Typhon are fighting outside.”
As he was assimilated with the divine beast and his magic power was strengthened, the solidarity of his contracted magic power also became stronger.
When the Elven waved his hand, an image appeared in the air.
The purpose is to check the situation outside of Shinsu.
As Taehyun expected, Rosaria opened her tentacles and was hitting Typhon’s body.
Typhon, with his power wrapped all over his body, was enduring it with a smile.
“….”
[….]
Rosaria gradually increased her power due to Typhon’s actions, and Typhon was also strengthening her powers for defense.
The more it happened, the more their magic power in Taehyun’s body also boiled up.
[Calm down your magic power.]
It’s not dangerous right now, but it’s too high.
It was said that in a space like now, with just that much magical power, Shinsu could misunderstand.
“I know.”
Taehyun, who said so, forcibly suppressed the magic power of the two archdukes.
‘This guy Typhon…. I regained my strength and the flirting became more severe.’
I can’t say anything about it because I made a pact with him.
It would be difficult if the situation continued like this.
When I almost succeeded in suppressing the magic power of Typhon, who was starting to run wild, thinking that I would go out and give him a nice word.
Kwaaaa!!
“…!!”
[…!!]
Taehyun and Elven’s eyes turned back to the video due to the sudden surge of dark blue magic.
There was Gilfer, who was strengthening his power and had jumped in to stop Typhon and Rosaria.
[contractor…!! Calm down your strength quickly…]
Even before the Elven who shouted had finished speaking.
Tiring.
[Connection to the Void Rock has been blocked.]
[The flow of magic power is mixed.]
[Coordinates have been specified. Movement begins.]
Sssssss.
Taehyun’s body disintegrated and was sucked into one of the gates.
[Oh…my god….]
The embarrassed Elven belatedly let out a curse.
