Chapter 313
that’s not human Sin and calamity in human form. It was the personification of death.
“There is no heaven or hell in this world. The god you cry out for does not exist above the sky.”
Lightning rains down from the sky. The earth refuses to support humans. A man who has never fallen in his life stumbles on a flat ground and stabs his colleague while swinging a knife at an illusion. Beasts born from the fruit rush in like waves. The technology developed to kill the beast takes a twist.
Blood and flames well up. Screams and thunder echo. Burnt flesh rises with black smoke. Death by electrocution, loss of blood, loss of foot, death by stamping out. Death of all kinds is displayed on the battlefield in the form of corpses.
In its midst, the king of sins walked with death as his footprints.
“The hall of warriors where only those who died fighting honorably go, a paradise prepared only for those who have suffered, and a shelter above the clouds. There is nothing after death.”
Warriors who stood out in war, heroes who led impossible battles to victory, and hermits who hid themselves away from the phone. Armed with treasures and keepsakes and wrapped in the blessings of wisdom, the mighty men rushed at the king of sin.
all dead
not even an opponent The king of sin laughed at the masterpieces created by the human species and destroyed them one by one. Every time the scythe flashed, someone’s head fell to the ground.
So was Shay.
Jizan is broken. The cherry blossoms are broken. There is no feeling in the crushed leg, and the blood flows through the punctured body.
Unlike the others, Shay is still alive, but that was only ‘yet’.
“There is only one abandoned ossuary.”
The king of sin drew his sickle. Blood is pouring out of someone’s corpse. thump thump. Catastrophe’s search for its next victim turns to Shay. Shay desperately raised his head as he continued to descend, clutching the broken jizan sack.
It was right in front of Shay’s eyes.
The king of human-made calamities and sins.
“I am the smallest ossuary in the world. A library dedicated to the forgotten. The mortician who picked it up and used it as a burial item when you issued a lot of empty checks that you could never pay.”
Messy hair strewn in places. Jet-black eyes that seemed to peek into the human abyss. His face was tattooed with blood and someone’s skull was covered. The wildness like a child of a beast stands out.
But even that look is terrifyingly beautiful.
The head is about to go down. Tired? No, the instinct in the face of its majesty and dignity commands it to bow its head. I can’t win, so I’m shouting to give in and beg for my life.
He wanted to kneel even now, but Shay gritted his teeth and resisted the order. Rebellious from birth, she defied her instincts and faced the King of Sin.
This life is not over. If you look at one more, you have to put a little more into your eyes. Even for the next round.
-however.
“If you have another, I will come back.”
The words that seemed to have a return in mind forced Shay to lose his composure and stiffen. A moan escapes from the gaping mouth.
“…Ah uh….”
“Go and tell them. Your justice is bankrupt, and I’m going to reap it soon. The justice and morality that we cried out for as collateral for our future and destiny have finally reached the bottom.”
Even death cannot be an escape. The world beyond is not safe either. The regressor then realized her fate.
Her return… will continue unless the King of Sin is defeated.
Fear creeps in. A threat that even death can’t resist. A wall that must be crossed.
The destination I found at the end of a return that was exhausting, daunting, and even lonely… was so far and high. To the extent that I couldn’t even think of reaching it even if I walked forever, let alone my whole life.
however.
Even so.
Instead of giving up, instead of weeping from exhaustion, Shay glared at the King of Sin.
“Heh…. he just talks a lot of things that I can’t understand…”
Because he was so stupid that he couldn’t predict even the obvious results. Because my knowledge is so shallow that I can’t even see the gap with the other person. Even if there is a wall, I’m stupid enough to not know how strong it is until I run into it.
Shay held the broken angel in his bare fist.
“I’ll make him shut up someday…. Leave it…Watch it.”
The King of Sins was silent for a moment. Is it a mockery of stupidity or a respect for humans?
At the end of the silence, the King of Sin smiled faintly.
“How long.”
Immediately after, the scythe moved. That episode was the last thing Shay saw.
***
Well. okay.
I expected it, but that is definitely the king of humans. It seems a bit strong, but there must be something wrong with that. First of all, the human king is right.
But no matter how you look at it, I’m not. The face, physique, and gender are completely opposite to me.
hmm.
‘…not the human king. It can’t be. It didn’t look like that at all.’
When the king of beasts dies, another king of beasts arises somewhere in the world. The newly born king of beasts is distinct from the previous king. They’ll carry the same promise, but other than that, their memories, looks, and personalities are different.
So… in other words.
It must mean that I died in the previous episode.
when? where? how? don’t know that However, if you think about what the lord of all things does and what Seonghwangcheong does, it’s not strange how he dies.
One year later I die. In 10 years, the world will end. spoiled my life
Of course, the fact that I will die a year later has not been confirmed. But I was sure What if the king of sin destroys the world in 10 years? Because I have to die before then.
Thanks to the appearance of the regressor, he escaped from the abyss… but because of that, he became deeply involved in a very large flow. I can’t live a normal life anymore.
Damn I told you to live normally, but you can’t be normal if you live. Still can’t help it
The end of the world is not what I want. So is human extinction. I don’t know what the hell the king of men has done to embark on an act of racial self-destruction, but I have no intention of doing so yet.
Some people, including Navida and Seonghwangcheong, may think differently… but that’s their situation.
Like the regressor, I have no choice but to struggle to survive.

NOTICE
Today’s installment contains the contents of past episodes when Shay the Regressor did not visit the bottomless pit.
There are many extras who died in the bottomless pit, and the events that happened are different, so readers’ understanding may be confused.
I posted a brief explanation on the notice, so I would appreciate it if you could refer to it before reading the main story.

The best way to escape danger is to physically distance yourself from it.
But there are times in life when you have to take risks to get something. If so, what should I do?
A careful approach should be made only after a thorough investigation and careful elimination of possible hazards.
I pride myself on doing it faithfully. Thanks to this, this abyss was quiet and comfortable.
However, I think there is a part that has been overlooked.
The abyss is a bottomless abyss. A place where those who have fallen to the bottom test their limits for the last time. No matter how carefully they removed the danger, there was nothing they could do about the ephemera who fell into the abyss by themselves. I am not a prophet
Well, I’ve explained this word for word, but there’s one thing I want to say.
“After all, Ebon is trying to kill us all. Aji is blocking it, but it won’t last long. Now what?”
I’m fucked. a lot.
“Damn it. I didn’t believe it either. I should have realized that there was no way the military general would leave us alive.”
Kanisen Riverwood said calmly. Having once burned with enmity towards the military, but having sunk all those emotions down the abyss, he was nervous about the new threat.
Their identity is the Resistance, who invaded to destroy Tantalus. However, Tantalus was too large to explode with the explosives they had brought with them. The Resistance, who understood the abyss as a rather large pit, was frustrated by the completely different situation, and I approached them and persuaded them to live down there.
As a result, we were living happily at the bottom of this abyss… but it seems that the resistance is not the only one falling into the abyss.
I said.
“So you signaled hard from the first time I met you. that person is dangerous Let’s get ready to blow it up somehow.”
Delta stuttered in response.
“The hour signal? when?”
“You gave a hand signal behind your back.”
“Ah, I folded and opened my fingers back then…”
Chit. You’ve been trained in hand signals in the resistance. Somehow, my memory is hazy. The only thing I remember was you, Delta, but did you even forget everything?
This is why mind readers shouldn’t be among the poor. It seems like I’m becoming stupid as well because the kungjjak doesn’t match.
“Ugh, it looked like I saw it somewhere… It must have been a hand signal. I think it’s the skill you show…”
“No matter how often I play with my hands, what can I gain by flirting even in that situation?”
“I’m sorry…”
When Delta replied in a hoarse voice, Beta, the red one of the Resistance, warmly embraced him.
Delta and Beta, who became lovers after settling in the bottomless pit, only got better and better. To put it a little worse, no matter what happened, we just wrapped around each other and carried each other.
like now.
“It’s okay Delta no Elsie. We didn’t even know.”
proud proud proud
I didn’t even expect it from you in the first place. What do you want from Paktong, who prays to the heavenly god every time he eats in the abyss, even when Tirkanjaka, the founder of the abyss, is sleeping next to him?
“And we were sold on the appearance of Ebon. It was hard to notice because Hughes’ hand signal was made at that time.”
Pretending to be comforting, they strangely put the blame on me as well. Are you trying to save your boyfriend’s face?
“In the first place, everything bad is Ebon. Now, instead of blaming anyone, you have to think of another way!”
you’re funny It’s a matter of survival right now, so what’s not bad? And if you’re going to think otherwise, you should have done it before comforting your boyfriend! What you’re saying right now isn’t a countermeasure, it’s just politics, right?
“That’s right. You’re right Cindy! Now I have to think of a way! Anyone have a good idea?”
In the meantime, you who are comforted are also amazing. In the end, the conclusion came back.
The fact that this is my colleague makes my eyes go dark. Alpha is just a strong and stupid normal person, and Beta is the complete opposite of Alpha. Delta is a nerd with low self-esteem, so he can’t be trusted.
Kanisen, who was an aspiring knight in his own way, is smart and has excellent abilities, but like a knight, his head is a little stiff, so it is ambiguous with me. At least the thing I can use the most is…
I ordered Gamma, the only technician in the Resistance.
“gamma. Take the explosives and go to the point.”
Gamma, an engineer, was taken aback when she heard my words.
“Four points? There…!”
“I can not help it. If it wasn’t there, explosives would have no meaning. At least we should protest with it.”
“But if it explodes at the point, this Tantalus may collapse entirely…!”
“I will take responsibility. hurry!”
