Damned 13th Regression – 150
by Jessie@AFNCC
<Regression number 13 is damn right, episode 150>
Declare mass suicide without hesitation.
That was the rational decision he and the ‘collective’ made.
“I was denied the future I dreamed of but it doesn’t feel that bad.”
Sigmund held the rosary given to him by his mother.
He thought that the future he envisioned was right.
Still I hesitated because of one person.
“Mother Christina would have told me that my dream was not right.”
Sigmund’s power is his ultimate distrust of humans.
Because they thought humans were bad they forcibly erased their shortcomings.
Absorbing humans into a collective was an act of forcibly trampling and destroying the identity and freedom of all ‘individuals’.
“What you are doing is a complete denial of the ‘human nature’ that Teacher Christina believes in.”
“Yes.”
Sigmund’s awakening has never occurred since then.
But there were expected conditions.
The death of Mother Christina.
Neither of them will give up on their dreams.
Sigmund who saw the future he dreamed of completely lost the condition for awakening.
“Well but. “It would be a shame for everyone to commit suicide.”
“Is that so? If you need anything please let me know.”
“I have something in mind. “I told you this before right?”
Joo Gong-hyeok handed over an item from his inventory.
He then took out the Gauss Pistol ‘Kochzion the Devourer’.
“For now you will have to die here.”
“All right.”
A short gunshot rang out and the blackout curtain was lifted.

I gave a light greeting to Sandalphon in the sky.
“I feel sorry for the angel. “It happened like this.”
“I don’t care.”
Sandalphon narrowed his eyes and spoke matter-of-factly.
“You have already saved tens of thousands of people. And we will save more people in the future. Even if you subtract hundreds from it it doesn’t change.”
“okay? “I don’t think it’s over there.”
Joo Gong-hyuk pointed to the angel squatting in the corner.
– Ouch!
Nathaniel was vomiting with a bad look on his face.
It was mental pain caused by the good and evil center built into the angel.
“She is a good angel. That’s why it’s difficult to rationalize.”
Angels also have different personalities and values and their centers of good and evil also have individual differences.
Sandalphon came down in a small form and patted her on the back.
“Master~ It’s really cool as expected.”
Liliane came down and waggled her tail.
Joo Gong-hyeok grabbed the tail and lifted it up.
“What is there to be cool about? “I killed them all like before.”
“So… charismatic determination that is of a different quality from the master’s devastating force! “I can’t help but respect and love that part of you master!”
Even when her weak point the tail was caught she smiled and flattered.
Joo Gong-hyeok chuckled and took out a bead from his pocket.
The official contract item with her ‘Lirianne’s Orb’.
Inside it the essence of Langdharma the Heavenly Knight who had been killed a few hours ago had been absorbed.
“Thank you! “Master!”
Lilianne smiled happily and reached out for the orb.
The moment his hand touched the orb Joo Gong-hyeok lifted it upward.
“…Master? “I heard you’re feeding those heavenly knights and demons to raise them into great devils?”
“Who doesn’t raise you? “It seems like they’re trying to eat something raw.”
“Ah my master you eat it raw. I have only one mind for you master.”
Joo Gong-hyeok spoke to Lilianne who went into sales mode while using her charm skills.
“Then cry.”
“yes?”
“Cry and beg.”
“….”
The words ‘Why me!?’ came out of my throat but I could see the orb containing the energy of the Heavenly Knight shining brightly.
dump!
Liliane desperately grabbed Joo Gong-hyeok’s leg.
“Hehehe master please do me a favor. “Please show your generous mercy to me who is useless and incorrigible…”

“Oh I feel something now.”
“Then you are giving it to me!?”
“Hmm but something is missing by 2%.”
Joo Gong-hyeok snapped his fingers.
“Okay why don’t you try something like bowing?”
“….”
She knelt down and bowed her head with a smile.
“The (damn) master is like no other in the world. Please take pity on this insignificant umma and show mercy to her. “I cannot live without my master’s care.”
“Oh my~ what a beautiful view~”
Joo Gong-hyeok admired Lilianne’s smooth back and messy hair.
It was not easy to see a succubus dressed in provocative clothes sitting gracefully and bowing her head.
“Hahahaha~ What is it Lilianne? “It’s a joke it’s a joke~ We don’t have to do this between us~”
Joo Gong-hyeok smiled brightly and handed the orb to her.
“Hehe~ I knew it too. (garbage) Master. “This is truly from my heart.”
– Queen of Darkness Lilianne… Do you have no pride…
“Hey angel if you’re not going to take responsibility for my demon student then shut up.”
As Lilianne and Nathaniel glared at each other she absorbed Langdharma’s essence.
[Liliane absorbs the ‘Essence of Celestial Knight Langdharma’ contained in the orb.]
[Because they are flesh-based beast-human demons the absorption rate is only 37%.]
[If two additional Thousand Knight level people are absorbed ‘『Lirianne Queen of Darkness』 will be close to ‘Bel Marduk’s Forty-Four Spears’.]
Bel Marduk’s forty-four spears meant the 44 most outstanding of the 900 knights.
If I had to compare it he was the leader of the Heavenly Knights and a rank below the Ten Dukes and the Four Heavenly Kings.
Joo Gong-hyeok took out another cigarette and asked.
“When did Zoroaster go?”
“It was a little while ago. “I’ve already seen everything I need to see.”
In this 30th floor mission Lilianne took on the role of administrator Langdharma and host Zoroaster took on the role of monitor.
Because the power of the hunters became stronger as the upper floors went up many demons were attached but it was unusual for three Heavenly Knights to be attached on the 30th floor.
The cause was ‘Joo Gong-hyeok’.
“Things are going well.”
It was the first step to capture the Four Heavenly Kings Cluesti.
“What should I give you as compensation?”
Liliane’s voice trembled slightly.
Joo Gong-hyeok was now in a position where he could not be satisfied no matter what she gave him.
“Well there’s a lot of work ahead.”
After dealing with Cluesti I planned to secretly enter the beastman city just as I had learned the martial arts of the beastmen.
To do that you need two things.
The highest level of transformation power and the avatar of the beast race god.
The power of transformation was already acquired by strengthening the angel armor.
“Well just give me one special dungeon portal with ‘Hybrid Geo’. “I’ll come back later.”
“‘Hybrid Geo’? “It’s my first time hearing this name…”
“Because the Beastmen are in charge of the Four Heavenly Kings Vinecliff. “You a Cluesti member don’t know.”
“It’s a beastman type dungeon master. “It seems completely illegal.”
“Liliane. “It seems like the fact that I just absorbed my fellow Heavenly Knight was against the law. Do you want to hand it over right away?”
“No matter what method I use I will find the dungeon where Hybrid Geo is located.”
Liliane completely changed her attitude and answered politely.
A portal was opened in the sky above the 30th floor arena announcing the end of the mission.
* * *
The company’s plaza awaits elite hunters returning from missions.
The portal opened and two bloodied returnees appeared.
Company’s internal affairs director Joo Gong-hyeok and an unexpected person.
It was ‘Death King X’.
“oh my god!”
“Everyone deploy the barrier!”
I tried to respond to the sudden appearance but the Demon King disappeared from the square like smoke.
All that was left was Joo Gong-hyeok glaring at the spot where the Four Spirits King had disappeared.
[30th floor voting mission.]
Mortality rate 99.33%.
Survival rate 00.67%
Two hundred and ninety-eight people died.
Only two survivors.
He is known as Joo Gong-hyeok the hero of Desertio and the main culprit of the massacre on the 30th floor ‘Death King X’.
“No how could such a tragedy happen….”
“Unfortunately I didn’t know that the Demon King was in the mix.”
Embassies in other cities viewed Zhou Gonghyuk with suspicion.
‘What were you doing while hundreds of elites were dying?’
‘Isn’t this what you intended?’
‘Was it really impossible to stop the Demon King?’
Instantly many questions appeared in their minds.
However unfortunately there was no great person who could raise such unsavory suspicions against the symbol of justice and the powerful figure of the two cities the newly emerging hero of humanity.
Since there was no other survivor and King Salyeong disappeared without a word he had no choice but to leave the testimony and proof to Joo Gong-hyeok.
Except for just two.
Hayeonsi bit her lip as if in pain and Soma closed his eyes with a stiff face.
“Yeonsi if you want to push me you can make it public. “Maybe it will be your best hand?”
I muttered to Hayeonsi in a whisper but she shook her head.
“I don’t know but I won’t. “I’m always on your side.”
There were no lies in her words.
It was a stark contrast to himself who always spoke of lies and deception.
Joo Gong-hyeok got into the carriage with a somewhat satisfied smile.
Soon communications will pour in from cities where victims including Legion Deus Dosan came from.
Even though the mission was over not a single person returned.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
The carriage led by a demonic beast floated shallowly off the ground and moved.
It was a hovercraft technology made of half science and half magic engineering.
That’s how much technology has developed.
The Company has already developed a rudimentary ‘mosaic surgery’.
It was the technology used by future people to insert monster organs.
That’s not all.
Cities with advanced engineering technology such as companies and corps were able to produce armored vehicles and motorcycles with considerable performance.
The prototype was a two-wheeled combat horse given to the surviving members of the Order.
Drop drop.
The sound of blood forming and falling was heard.
It wasn’t a sound coming from Joo Gong-hyeok.
Inside the carriage returning to the government building.
There was a person sitting opposite Joo Gong-hyeok.
A cloak stained with blood.
A mask filled with resentment and curses and flowing with evil spirits.
It was the ‘Death King’ who disappeared from the square.

He said as he took off his mask.
“I did what you wanted.”
“Well done.”
As usual the person wearing the mask of the Four Spirits was not Joo Gong-hyeok’s alter ego.
An executive who has already informed Deus of his death.
It was ‘Sigmund Wiederneuwitt’.
Joo Gong-hyeok took out a thick cigarette from his pocket and searched for matches in the carriage.
“Mr. Sigmund. From now on please put a lot of effort into the work of ‘Death King’. “The Necromancer needs to become a more terrifying and worst symbol than he is now.”
“All right.”
“And Illivatus joins the Company and settles down. You will be settled next to the Company but you will have your own roles.”
“Which one is it?”
When I took out the match provided in the carriage and lightly scratched it a green flame the size of a fingernail rose up.
Fire is as simple as snapping a finger but Joo Gong-hyeok decided to try changing the flavor of cigarettes by combining various matches and gunpowder.
“You guys will be my ‘factory.’ Entry and exit will be strictly controlled. “If anyone comes in without permission just eat them.”
“All right.”
Sigmund nodded without saying anything.
The embodiment of rationality came under him to save the world.
Their loyalty was trustworthy but also downright dangerous.
If they ultimately deem Joo Gong-hyeok’s methods unreasonable or decide that a new method has been found they will become Joo Gong-hyeok’s enemies without a moment’s hesitation.
‘Of course that won’t happen.’
If Sigmund and the collective became Joo Gong-hyeok’s enemies there would be no reason for the future people to target them.
Rather he would have welcomed Joo Gong-hyeok as a comrade who would attack him together.
Joo Gong-hyeok muttered to himself as he predicted the situation based on the future people’s actions.
“I feel really dirty.”
Future Man refers to a future in which all hunters have not died.
It was a foolish future that I didn’t want to admit but in the back of my head I was making a cool decision.
“Have you found a way? trash.”
No one knows the future.
Both devils and angels.
Metatron and Bel Marduk.
Future India’s Joo Gong-hyeok.
I only have a handful of information.
It’s unpredictable.
Even the determined direction of the future was messed up by those who returned from the past and those who returned from the future.
No one could know.
Only one person sighed.
“I heard that Gonghyeok seems surprisingly distressed all the time.”
Hayeonsi pondered as she counted the stars on the roof of the government building.
“How can I prevent my brother from getting sick? “I wonder if my brother will regret it.”
Angel wings softly appeared on her shoulders.
Her silent avatar had a bitter smile somewhere on it.
