Episode 509
: Conversation with the body.
How long did that one-sided conversation last?
watering.
Dokgo-jin lost his energy and could not even look Tae-hyeon in the eyes.
This is because of the learned fear of limbs being torn off and regenerated.
A peak expert in the Heavenly Demon Church feels fear.
Even though the dimensions of the martial arts world and the Earth were connected and he met many people, it was like experiencing this for the first time, and it was the worst shame and humiliation for him, who had grown up killing many masters of the four factions and political factions.
‘Why hasn’t there been any report on this guy yet… hehe…!!’
Dokgojin, who had escaped the pain for a moment while Taehyun was talking to Tolkien, who had woken up, hurriedly lowered his eyes.
After finishing the conversation, dark red magical power bloomed from Taehyun’s body.
“Old man.”
Even though he knew that Dokgo Jin would not understand what he was saying, he broke eye contact.
This is to check whether Ataraxia is broken enough to be used.
Tolkien felt sympathy for the trembling figure and clicked his tongue.
[You hurt your brother’s body. That guy doesn’t live up to his name either.] It’s
been a while since I’ve been noticed in both the upper world and the lower world.
I’m smiling, but I’m not laughing.
He knows that his brother, who has subjugated not only the Absolute of the Upper World but also the Great Dukes of the Lower World, is in a bad mood because the situation is not going as he expected.
If a being of the Archduke’s level falls, he becomes very physically and mentally unstable.
Is that all?
Taehyun met Michael a little while ago and felt first-hand the gap between him and the 1st Heavenly Master.
That feeling would be difficult for a mortal in Middle-earth to bear.
Hi Kraken Zelga.
Where did that damn guy go!!
Even while cursing the monster of the sea current tribe whose nose is not even visible.
Tolkien did not neglect his efforts to examine Taehyeon’s emotions.
[sibling. Are you planning on using hypnosis?]
“I was thinking about it.”
[….]
The cooldown is not resolved as quickly as expected.
Taehyun grumbled at the fact that his body was not following his heart.
The dimensional integration of Middle-earth began earlier than planned.
The level of otherworldly people was higher than I thought, and it was dangerous to stay in their current state.
[I don’t think we even understand the language. Wouldn’t it be better to kill him and find the High Kraken?]
“This is the first guy I met after returning to Earth. “If the language problem is resolved, there will be a lot to be gained.”
Taehyun touched Dokgojin’s incompletely regenerated limbs.
It seemed unreasonable to use the E-grade ‘ultra-fast regeneration’ like a saint.
Tiring.
[Skill Binding Chain (E) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Chjorrrr. Sigh.
Chains made of magical power bound Dokgo-jin’s body.
[What about Hi Kraken?]
“Time was a lot more warped than I thought.”
Five years is not a long time for monsters, but not for humans.
Not far away, I felt the ocean current’s magical response was blurry, but this was not the time to waste time looking for the invisible Xelga.
“I might have been hunted by these guys.”
[….]
“Let’s move to New Korea first.”
As Taehyun pulled the chain, Dokgojin walked helplessly.
If you contact the New Korea players, you will be able to understand the situation without difficulty.
They probably have earrings that enable automatic interpretation.
However, the walk lasted less than 10 minutes.
Dokgojin.
People wearing the same clothes as the chained man suddenly appeared.
The number is ten.
They flinched for a moment when they saw Dokgo-jin trapped, but soon their movements to surround Tae-hyun and Tolkien became natural.
[Brothers…?]
Tolkien took a quick look at Taehyun’s expression.
The corners of the mouth were raised, and the red eyes were curved like a crescent moon.
It was similar to how the Elven treated him.
[….]
“Looking at your outfit, it looks like you’re from the same age as this guy.”
I said these words thinking that my words would not be understood anyway.
however.
One of the assassins who was exchanging glances with each other stepped forward.
“New…Korean…people…?”
“…!!”

It was vague, but it was clearly new Korean.
Taehyun’s eyes widened.
“New Korean… you are definitely… new Korean…”
the man said again as if confirming it.
This time his voice was a little more confident.
“New Korea. “Player… It’s annoying…”
The slurred muttering was so pleasing.
“I know.”
Taehyun held up the chains that were binding Dokgojin and killed him.
The guys in front of me are also worthy SS-rank players.
Is that why?
“chain. Release it.”
A cold gaze that went beyond the understanding of language swept over Taehyun and Tolkien.
“It’s rude to give orders at first meeting.”
Contrary to his friendly tone, Taehyun looked at Dokgojin coldly.
Rattling.
Dokgo-jin’s body trembled violently as he remembered his learned fear.
He muttered something to his colleagues.
It was a language from another world that Taehyun could not understand.
Run away.
It wasn’t difficult to understand its meaning.
“I think that’s enough of greetings.”
For a moment, let the dark red magic bloom.
“Shall we kneel first?”
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (E) has been activated.]
[The target is not specified.]
Hwaaaah.
The entire area was covered in darkness.
E-rated ‘Apocalypse’.
Its power is incomparable to before.
It was enough to put pressure on ten assassins.
The crushing gravity and the endlessly chasing chains.
My vision is dizzy due to paralysis of my five senses, and my body is difficult to control as if I am poisoned.
At least three or so people resisted and approached Taehyun, but that was all.
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (E) has been strengthened.]
[Magic power consumption is accelerated.]
Kugugung.
It took less than a minute to suppress all the spray heat.
“Old man.”
Among them, I stood in front of Salsu, who spoke New Korean.
As gravity weakened, Salsu raised his head with difficulty.
“I have a lot of questions I want to ask.”
He kindly bent one knee and brought us to eye level.
Nevertheless.
“The name of the Heavenly Demon… Shingyo… kills…”
To live.
Taehyun smiled and stood up.
There is still a long time left until Ataraxia’s cooldown is lifted.
Before that, I wanted to hear an answer from the guy in front of me.
“They say there’s nothing better than communicating with your body.”
A silent scream rang out.
* * *
One minute to subdue ten assassins.
It took 4 minutes to get Salsu, who can speak new Korean, to obey.
5 minutes to find useful information.
Taehyun once again confirmed the information he had found out through spraying.
“so. “The one who broke the dungeon of Hi Kraken was a new Korean?”
“…yes.”
Salsu answered in a deflated voice.
My already slurred new Korean language became even more difficult to understand as my broken jaw did not fully recover.
“New Koreans who use freezing magic. Is it really Lim Ah-young?”
They called the skill magic and the skill user as a wizard.
Taehyun was trying to understand the situation from another perspective.
‘If it’s true… that guy has grown up.’
If he could defeat Xelga with just one person, New Korea’s power would have increased significantly.
There was other useful information as well.
The world they lived in is called ‘Murim’ on Earth.
Jeong faction and Sa faction.
Among them, it is said that they belong to a group called Cheonma Shingyo, which is classified into four sects, and that Salsu Dokgo-jin, who was the first to engage in combat, was their leader.
“Murim… I’m connected to strange things. But there is one thing I don’t understand.”
“…what is it…?”
The assassin of the Heavenly Demon Church wondered if there was anything wrong with what he had said.
does not exist.
Although it was humiliating, he only told the truth despite the terrible torture.
However, Taehyun didn’t seem to think so.
“New Korea is a weak country?”
A silent scream rang out once again.
* * *
Federal Republic of China. Administrative capital Beijing.
Ji Jin-hee, who crossed the gate, looked up at the Chinese Players Association building, which had been completed not long ago.
The design, which was a mixture of modern and classical styles, was quite convincing.
“Wow.”
“Hurry up. “We were probably the last.”
“I’m going to end up in the mouth of predators anyway, so what’s the point of trying to be fast?”
Ji Jin-hee’s words made Jae-jun Lee look bitter.
Predators.
This is because New Korea is not included in that group.
We could understand the situation just by looking at the fact that only the chief secretary was allowed to accompany us to this hostile place.
Just 5 years ago.
New Korea, which was declared a world hegemony in name and reality, was focusing on dealing with the suddenly appeared demons.
Kasim Jort, Jeongjae Lee, Ryuusbo, Jihong Min.
Although they failed to kill Kassim Zort and Min Ji-hong, it was not without success.
Lee Jeong-jae was captured alive, and Liu Shibo was killed after Yoo Ah-young stole information from him.
Afterwards, by interrogating Lee Jeong-jae, I learned that the demons were planning to open a gate connected to a dimension other than the Abyss.
It matched the information Yoo Ah-young found out from Liu Shibo, and Shin Korea moved quickly.
This is because they understood that opening the dimensional gate was not simply for the purpose of exchange.
It was a situation where the civilization built on Earth could be trampled in an instant.
After careful consideration, this information was shared with world organizations, and what came back was betrayal.
The United States thought it was a golden opportunity to regain its endangered number one position, and China thought it was the right time to regain its weakened status as a major power.
Such negligence allowed Kassim Jort and Min Jihong to cooperate in opening two dimensional gates.
It happened so quickly that even New Korea, which was aware of the situation in advance, could not do anything about it.
The United States, which cooperated with Kassim Jort, was connected to the ‘Empire’ and accepted ‘Auror’, and China, which cooperated with Min Ji-hong, was connected to ‘Warrior’ and accepted ‘Auror’.
As the size of the dimensional gate once opened increased, the number of otherworldly people coming from the empire and martial arts increased.
Powerful people joined the United States and China to increase their power.
As large and small wars broke out, the Empire and the Murim rapidly expanded their influence on Earth.
This soon led to the end of conventional weapons, which were barely maintaining their status.
Fallen countries and refugees emerged one after another, and superhumans like the Player became the masters of the reorganized world.
“Just five years. “The gap has widened so much in that short period of time.”
“…It was an inevitable result. “Don’t be too hard on yourself.”
“Depending on the outcome of this meeting, many people may lose their lives.”
Ji Jin-hee and Lee Jae-jun entered the conference room having a heavy conversation.
The presidents of the players’ associations of the United States and China are seated.
And there were familiar faces identified through Night Walker’s information.
The head of the Chinese Players Association, which organized this meeting, welcomed us with open arms.
“Welcome. “Hero of a small country.”
* * *
Small country.
It was a remark that could be considered a diplomatic discourtesy, but Ji Jin-hee responded by frowning.
Jaejun Lee with a stern expression stood behind Jinhee Ji, who was sitting in her seat.
“I’m sorry I’m late.”
Ji Jin-hee said without hiding her discomfort.
The earring’s automatic interpretation function activated, and those in the conference room nodded as if they understood.
“You are busy, so we should understand.”
It was Kevin Lee, president of the United States Players Association, who said that.
Even as a new era began, he maintained his position as president of the association and became the most influential figure in the United States.
“There’s no need to pretend to be friendly. “When I look at your face, I think about the word betrayal.”
“….”
There was silence in the conference room.
and.
“Ji Jin-hee, president of the association. “Observe the etiquette befitting a normal person.”
Mao, head of the Chinese Players Association, intervened by making exaggerated gestures.
“Chairman Mao. This also applies to you. “Do you think this body’s expression was too polite?”
Chairman Mao burst out laughing at Ji Jin-hee’s ridicule.
“Whether then or now, that outspoken attitude is admirable. However, I hope you think carefully about where this place is. Unless you want to end your short life like President Ko Tae-wook.”
“…bloke!!”
Fighting spirit emanated from Ji Jin-hee’s fierce body.
