Episode 227
4.
As soon as martial law was declared, hunters poured into the streets of Babylon.
-Kill everyone!
Hunters were wearing black uniforms. Black Dragon Guild. Among them, instead of a reconnaissance or attack force, a conflict resolution team and an extermination team were lined up in the square.
These are hunters at the tower, but they were never hunters [trained to climb the tower].
-Anyone who cannot present a resident card will be killed regardless of the reason! Anyone who has been issued a resident card for less than a week will also be killed!
-The guild leader was attacked!
-This is war!
-All subversive elements will be exterminated!
bang! bang!
Gunshots rang out all over the square.
At the Tower of Babel, the production and storage of firearms was strictly controlled. Making a gun by hand was a crime punishable by death.
However, large guilds were an exception, and they were always prepared to wage war with guns.
-Black Dragon, these crazy people! What are we going to do now?
Vigilantes were also one of them. They pulled out their guns and aimed them at the Black Dragon’s suppression team.
-Get out of the way! We must carry out the guild leader’s orders!
-You mean killing people at random?
-This is a necessary measure to protect the tower! Didn’t the vice-leader of your vigilante group get attacked and die right now?
-But the vice-captain wouldn’t want this!
-Our guild leader wants this! Move!
The vigilantes did not get out of the way. The Black Dragon Guild also made no further attempts to persuade.
Two guilds faced off. Large guilds that lost their owners joined them. In a situation where it was impossible to tell each other apart, they bit each other like starving dogs.
-…….
What Gongja Kim saw before his eyes after escaping from the half-destroyed pantheon building was such a hell.
Gongja Kim wiped his face.
-eww…….
A person died.
People died.
More people are dying.
-damn… … .
There was no hesitation in the movements of the people aiming at each other. Every time the gun spewed fire, people were injured. dead. Life disappeared so easily.
Gongja Kim could not understand.
‘They are all guilds that support the tower.’
I’ve heard rumors that the large guilds don’t get along well. No matter what happened in the past, we occasionally heard through gossip that old feelings had built up between the guild leaders.
But I never thought it would be like this.
‘If the opportunity arises, are they going to kill each other?’
The top hunters are so-called heroes who have written their own legends.
Why have such heroes been unable to resolve their emotions for years?
Was there really no one person who could mediate between them?
Gongja Kim could not understand, but now he knew that even if he tried to imagine such a [what-if mediator], it would be useless.
I felt like my stomach was going to explode.
The dam blocking the center of my mind suddenly collapsed.
At that moment, Amethyst’s body, which had been lifted and hung on her back, flowed out.
-Tsk.
Unknowingly, Gongja Kim saw the corpse.
-… … Sir.
Amethyst’s body was torn apart.
Left leg, left arm, left chest, even left face. Amethyst kept her lips tightly shut as she faced death without any humanity allowed. Only his lifeless purple eyes looked at the sky like jewels.
-…….
silence.
When I lowered my head, this time the Heretic Questioner’s body came into view.
Gongja Kim gritted his teeth as he watched the last sight of the man who was trying to do something until the last moment.
-no. Okay, first of all.
Do what needs to be done.
-okay.
Do what you can.
-What can I do?
I looked at each and every thing I had.
Idol. It seemed to be an object that could supervise the pantheon on behalf of the pantheon, but the pantheon had collapsed. Even if I met priests from the pantheon outside, I didn’t know whether they would obey this idol.
Black Dragon Sutra. It seemed to be a means of communicating directly with the Black Dragon Master and other large guild leaders. However, ever since the Black Dragon Lord’s declaration of war, they have remained silent.
myself. At best, he was only an E-class hunter. There was no power.
-strength….
I knew one person who had that very power.
Gongja Kim turned his head.
First floor of the Tower of Babel, Babylon. Even in a vast city, the place where land was worth the price of gold was the central plaza, and there was a three-story building erected in the central plaza.
I don’t know how much magical power had been applied, but even though the explosion exploded in the square, it was relatively unharmed.
The face of a man who always seemed fine also appeared in my mind.

-Yoo Soo-ha Guild… .
Gongja Kim ran there.
5.
-No f*ck. What? What about that bitch?
Suha Yoo said.
Yu Su-ha was irritated after her nap was interrupted.
-…….
Gongja Kim’s heart pounded once again. Amethyst’s death. The death of the Heretic Questioner. And countless other deaths. He said he would help and wanted to help, but the Black Dragon Master flatly refused.
[You are young.]
[But I have no power.]
[There is no need for that anymore.]
If it had been Yusu instead of him.
If only he had a power comparable to that of the Flame Emperor.
-…….
Gongja Kim gritted his teeth.
It was a waste of time to wallow in self-pity.
He said, holding his voice.
-This is an emergency… … Chairman Yoo Soo-ha.
-Martial law has been declared, I know. But I also know that I have the skills to pull it off. Confucius, you can’t work for Ji Guild, so why come out like a beggar? What about Sujeong? How about Vice President Amethyst?
-Here… .
Gongja Kim put down Amethyst’s body. The Heretic Questioner’s body too.
Yu Suha was silent.
-when?
Yu Suha’s eyes were calm.
It was difficult for Kim Gongja to guess what that calmness meant.
-Right after we entered the pantheon… . There was a traitor within the pantheon. The bomb exploded, the Heretic Questioner died, and Sujeong’s older sister…
-Why are you fine?
-Sujeong noona covered my body.
puck!
Gongja Kim knelt down. Yu Su-ha kicked him in the shin.
-Ugh.
When he endured the pain and raised his head up, Yu Su-ha was still looking down at his subordinate with a calm face.
-A baby boy.
-…….
-Sujeong sister? Since when did you two become so close that you call me sister? hey. Gongja Kim. Sujeong is much younger than you. He looks older because of the way he speaks and the way he looks, but he looks younger than you. What now… … .
-…….
-No, it’s done. So what? Did Sujeong leave any will for you? Please do your best to sort out this situation. uh? You say you have to save people or something… … .
-Secretary Soo-jeong… That’s what you’re hoping for.
-Of course you want it. So I still take care of trash like you.
Gongja Kim could not bear to look up at Yu Suha.
He lost Amethyst because he had no power.
On the other hand, amethyst had power. If he ignores his own life, he has the power to save the life of every single person in front of him.
I don’t know if it was because of his innate reflexes or because he happened to find the location of the criminal faster than Kim Gong-ja, but the result was simple.
Gongja Kim couldn’t do it, but Amethyst could.
-…….
Because he felt resentful and unfair, because he hated it, because he felt pathetic and sad, Gongja Kim could not bear to look at Yoo Su-ha.
I set my gaze in space.
Thanks to you, I was able to see something different.
-Anyway, pair. I know what kind of personality you have. It’s just a perfect fit. So, very-
glare.
Very fast.
-Avoid it!!
Gongja Kim interrupted Yu Suha.
At exactly the same moment, a blue spear flew out of thin air.
Sighaaaa-
The power of the spear wrapped in blue aura was enormous. The Flame Emperor immediately raised his aura to protect his entire body, but he probably missed the split-second timing. The fire curtains created by the Flame Emperor were torn apart by the Blue Flame Spear.
-ah.
Gongja Kim, who was closest to Emperor Yan, could see that moment.
and.
-Ugh!
He stepped forward, straightened his knees, stretched out his back, and stretched out his hand — hitting the blue flame’s spear.
Blue aura was swirling in the blue flame window. The Auror’s storm ground the human’s fist that approached it into raw material as if it were a blender.
-Ahhhh!!
After one scream, Gongja Kim, who had lost his arm, fell to his knees. A few dots of his bleached flesh fell to the ground, doo doo, doo doo.
The things that fell slowly like blowing snow were probably the bones of Gongja Kim.
– Damn it! Did you avoid it!
A hunter landed from the sky.
Yu Su-ha looked at the kneeling Gongja for a moment, then took his gaze away and looked at the hunter.
-What are you?
-I am a saint!
Yoo Soo-ha looked at Kim Gong-ja, who was bleeding.
And then I saw the Hunter who revealed herself as a saint again.
-That’s terrible. f*ck. Is this bullshit that will make a saint burn because she just replaced half of the people?
-This is the nickname T.O.P gave me.
-T.O.P has a bit of a bad naming sense. so? Why does the saint come here and give me this shit?
The saint took a deep breath.
She exclaimed as if she had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
-Yoo Soo-ha! You murdered my only grandfather!
The saint boasted brilliant blonde hair. She had never seen a blonde like that before. Even though she was, she wasn’t the type of blonde that would be called [Grandpa] by that hunter.
-I’m not sure because there are more than one or two children who lost their parents because of me… . Who is your grandfather that makes you like this?
-Marcus Callenberg!
The eyes of the hunter who called herself a saint were burning.
As expected, Yu Suha also slightly raised his eyebrows at that name.
-Sword Saint?
-is it so! This is the name of my paternal grandfather!
-and. It’s been a long time since I heard that weird name. You are my granddaughter? Ah, indeed. Since the gentleman was of the age of tomorrow, it is quite possible that he would have a granddaughter like this.
-A devil-like person… … !
-okay. I’m kind of like that. But speaking of the devil.
Yu Su-ha glanced at the corpse of his subordinate again, the subordinate who was turning into a corpse.
-Is it your fault that it’s a burning dog shell outside right now?
The saintess clenched her fists.
She wanted to tell me. The property of the Callenberry family. The power that wealth has built up. Fools who are fascinated by the mysterious phenomenon called the Tower. About how to manipulate and move them.
And I wanted to tell you. A pantheon that could be easily predicted and used because anyone could be persuaded as long as the rules were followed. The head of the Black Dragon Guild, who hated the outside world but wanted to somehow have a relationship with the great powers outside. About how he poked through that loose crevice and collapsed it.
I didn’t.
Leaving the burning tower behind, the saint said only these words.
-Grandpa was killed by you in the tower.
-…….
-So, I will kill Top, and I will kill you.
Yu Su-ha smiled crookedly.
-If you think about it that way, it’s probably that old man’s fault. You said I was killed by that old man without knowing anything? He was shaking like crazy because he could see the number of people killed in his eyes. Actually, the killer was probably not me, but that guy.
-dog sound!
-That bullshit is what you’ve been saying since a while ago. A lady who is the granddaughter of a murderer who says that blood cannot be deceived and who has a secret reserve for murderers.
-You are the murderer. Salt Emperor. No, it would be useless to talk about it. Die!
A saintly woman rushed in, her blonde hair flowing.
-under.
Yu Su-ha looked down at the white dot that had flowed into his palm. Yu Su-ha did not know whether it would be dust spilled from a building collapsing, or pieces of bone leaking out when Kim Gongja was cut open.
but.
-I feel dirty.
I felt dirty.
Yoo Soo-ha always felt bad when something happened that she didn’t know about.
-There is no need to waste time here. You need to kill yourself.
The blue aura exploded and a red aura attacked.
A moment later, a scream escaped through the blue and red smoke.
-Kaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
-okay. I remember something now. The eyes look similar, the eyes.
Yoo Soo-ha closed his eyes and opened them.
-The eyes look similar to those who look at people as if they are trash killers. Oh, is unlucky eyes also an atavism? huh? Did your grandfather just teach you, like a family lesson, that if you see a person, you’ll know that he’s a murderer, so you should pick his head first?
-Ee, eee, ah, ugh… !
-Anyway, this world teaches you how to hate people, teaches you how to chew on people, and even teaches you how to kill people. It’s a great school. What’s really amazing is that after teaching them that way, they expect the children to love and cherish each other and raise their children well when they grow up.
Even as the smoke-filled screams stung my ears, Yu Su-ha continued to speak.
-I just can’t understand. I can’t understand it anymore when I look at your eyes.
Flowing.
Now I saw the hunter whose entire body had turned into a lump of charcoal and had been burned to a crisp.
I bent down, made eye contact, and looked down.
-How can a person like someone else? right?
The last remaining part also burned.
A hunter who vowed to avenge his grandfather and worked tirelessly for several years died like that.
Yu Su-ha slowly raised his back.
-Ah-oh. I feel dizzy.
After stretching my head a few times, I looked around at the scenery.
-That’s shit.
The outside of the mansion was burning. It seemed like a huge group of ruins could be built just by collecting the ruins that caught the eye. In a world filled with ash and smoke, screams and gunfire continued.
-It’s really shit. Don’t you think so too, Alba?
Yu Su-ha looked down at Kim Gong-ja.
In his dazed consciousness from losing one arm and losing so much blood, Gongja Kim couldn’t even look up at Suha Yoo. Yoo Soo-ha also did not ask for Kim Gongja’s gaze.
-I don’t know.
Yu Su-ha muttered.
-You and Sujeong are the same. I don’t know how people who can like people can do that.
Yu Suha looked up at the sky for a moment.
– Well, since they are such idiots, they probably work under me.
-Chairman, I… … .
-Oh, that’s enough. Don’t talk any more.
Yusu waved his hand to stop Kim Gongja from muttering helplessly.
Sounds like it’s annoying.
More than anything, it sounds familiar.
-You just don’t worry about anything. Brother Lee will take care of everything.
Even though he was dazed from losing so much blood, Gongja Kim muttered absentmindedly.
-how… … ?
-There is a way to everything.
Salt Emperor.
Yoo Soo-ha made the shape of a gun with his own hands.
Then, he wrapped the red aura around his hand and created a sphere that looked like a bullet.
-You wouldn’t know even if I told you?
-yes… ?
-My skills are a bit shit.
grasp!
A bullet of flame pierced Yu Suha’s mind.
Gongja Kim looked up in astonishment at the sight of Yoo Su-ha taking his own life.
Gongja Kim would not have known the meaning of that death until the very end.
[You are dead.]
but.
‘I’ knew.
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
The world was shattered.
.
.
.
.
.
.
like that.
‘I’ opened my eyes.
etc,
