    <Regression number 13 is damn right, episode 176>

    “Genesis” refers to the power that creates the world.

    “Law of annihilation” which means erasing the laws of dimension.

    The one who rules Babel’s 88 dimensions is here.

    At the unexpected appearance I barely took a breath and uttered a word.

    “What are you doing Demon King?”

    Here if you are nervous the 13th career of regression will cry.

    You must take your time at any time.

    “What happened? I guess you’ll have to ask me that. If you’re human you have to go upstairs. Shouldn’t we go downstairs? Rather…”

    The Demon King chuckled and stroked his chin.

    “Even though it was only our first meeting you could tell that I was the devil. “You are a very interesting human being.”

    “Even though it’s my first time meeting you you even know my trivial name so I don’t know what to do.”

    “Well this is the name of the person who killed my limb Cluesti. Wouldn’t it be strange not to know?”

    The Demon King answered leisurely clinking the glass in his hand.

    An extremely reasonable answer.

    ‘But that’s not all.’

    Now the Demon King has a confidence that cannot be achieved through justification alone.

    The reason Joo Gong-hyeok can relax now is because the demon king in front of him was a ‘fake’.

    ‘A throne that is not here a cup that is not here a floor that is not here.’

    The Demon King in front of me was nothing more than a projector-like projection of Bel Marduk on the 88th floor.

    Joo Gong-hyeok who regained his composure recalled the first words the devil said.

    “I can’t believe I saw it. what?”

    “You are asking the obvious. “Isn’t what you’ve been salivating for right in front of your eyes?”

    The Demon King’s goblet pointed to a brightly burning flame.

    “What does that look like?”

    “…Avatar.”

    “okay. That’s an avatar. An avatar of Babel.”

    The Demon King took a sip of his drink.

    “Babel itself and my source. Even the power of creation and destruction is contained in that flame.”

    “That’s really great….”

    “If Joo Gong-hyeok gets his hands on that.”

    The devil looked down at the human and smiled pitifully.

    “You can get the ending you want.”

    There was silence.

    I can’t joke around.

    Even though I was underwater I had the illusion that sweat was cutting deep into the back of my neck.

    The gaze filled with madness turned to the Demon King.

    “…Did you notice?”

    “what?”

    The Demon King remained ignorant.

    However the subtle smile on his lips was hitting Joo Gong-hyeok’s sixth sense like a punching bag.

    An intuition that is close to certainty resonates.

    “You noticed.”

    This time the Demon King noticed a ‘return’.

    The answer the Demon King returned was a bright face with prominent molars.

    “Come up.”

    [Creation of the final quest 『The Demon King’s Avatar』.]

    [Absorb the devil’s avatar through the avatar system.]

    An unfamiliar quest window appeared.

    What I’m talking about is simple.

    Kill the Demon King and take on the avatar.

    Bel Marduk chuckled.

    “Let’s meet again. The warrior who killed me and whom I killed. It was quite a fight for you. “Isn’t that right?”

    The Demon King snapped his fingers.

    Joo Gong-hyeok’s body is surrounded by water bubbles and bounces up.

    “Marduk….”

    You can’t stop it from rising even if you stir your body.

    Joo Gong-hyeok’s body rose rapidly to the surface roughing the current.

    “Bel Mardukuuuuuu!”

    The Demon King waved his glass as a farewell.

    The Demon King who chased away Joo Gong-hyeok saw a light shining brightly in the water.

    The Demon King smiles with satisfaction as he drinks his newly poured drink.

    “You can’t be disturbed yet. “Isn’t that so?”

    An iron door appeared around the light.

    There are thirteen octagonal iron doors shining in brass color.

    The nine doors are locked with rusty chains and cannot be opened and the remaining four doors are polished brass.

    Grumble――

    The tenth door opens.

    Behind the door is a red heart.

    Excited-

    My heart is beating.

    A stream of blood from the heart ran through the air as if it were alive.

    Blood vessels and muscles and organs appeared along the blood and a human being was drawn like a drawing paper.

    The man born at the door opens his eyes.

    He is a warrior.

    An iron fist tightly bound with cotton cloth.

    The pitch-black long sword exudes the scent of blood.

    The name of the man with the image of a worn-out warrior engraved on his face is…

    “Joo Gong-hyeok.”

    The Demon King called the name of the newly appeared man.

    “Are you sure you were Joo Gong-hyeok who couldn’t kill me?”

    * * *

    with a plop!

    With a splash of water Joo Gong-hyeok rose to the surface.

    = Oh my brother! are you okay?

    = Oh everyone! Our bodies are being sucked in!

    The avatars that were outside returned to Joo Gong-hyeok’s body.

    Joo Gong-hyeok did not move for a while.

    “What was there?”

    The Four Heavenly Kings Hild approached him who was floating like a corpse.

    “Have you found a person just like you?”

    “I didn’t see anything like that. Instead I saw something even more incredible.”

    Check the quest again.

    [Final quest 『The Demon King’s Avatar』.]

    [Absorb the devil’s avatar through the avatar system.]

    – Condition 1. Clear up to the 88th floor of Babel.

    – Condition 2. Kill the Demon King and dissolve the ownership of the avatar.

    [I discovered Babel’s final secret.]

    [You will be given one white coin and one black coin.]

    ‘Absorb the devil’s avatar.’

    It’s a good thing.

    A new route to return has appeared.

    The direction has become clearer.

    Now that you have contact with Babel’s system it will be easier to hack Babel’s system in the future.

    The Demon King noticed the return.

    However because Joo Gong-hyeok also learned this fact he was able to guard against an unexpected surprise attack.

    It’s much better than not knowing at all and getting stabbed in the back.

    “Good good.”

    It’s a good thing.

    The power that the Demon King possesses is the “Law of Destruction.”

    The power to erase an avatar.

    Obtaining the Demon King’s avatar is the same as gaining the ability to erase the avatar.

    If you take the time you might even be able to eliminate the hunters’ ‘stats’.

    If you can erase the hunters’ avatars if you can eliminate the hunters’ abilities…

    Hunters cannot destroy the Earth.

    It cannot destroy humanity.

    You can send them back to their hometown.

    The true salvation that Joo Gong-hyeok dreamed of in the past can be achieved.

    “It’s a good thing right?”

    It’s a good thing.

    really.

    Damn it.

    It’s a good thing.

    “Puhup keutkeuk.”

    It’s so absurd that I laugh.

    Joo Gong-hyeok patted his head and exclaimed in admiration.

    “Oh there was a way to save the world.”

    Clap—clap—clap—

    Applaud yourself.

    “congratulations. Joo Gong-hyeok.”

    Now you can save the world without having to kill all the hunters.

    “Congratulations. Joo Gong-hyeok.”

    Clap—clap—clap—

    “ha ha ha! Hahahaha!”

    Clapping and laughing alone.

    Jang—

    Joo Gong-hyeok stopped clapping his hands.

    It was because of the metallic sound that rang from the palm of my hand.

    Click-

    The fingers clashed together making the sound of metal clashing.

    His two hands are not ‘human’ hands.

    They were two pieces of cold metal imitating hands.

    “Tsk tsk.”

    I covered my face with my hands which had no body temperature.

    The hand placed near my eye dug into my eyeball.

    Clear liquid flows instead of blood.

    Even these eyes are not ‘human’ eyes.

    I fought until I was completely destroyed.

    To have both arms cut off.

    So that both legs are cut off and the right eye disappears.

    I fought until my face was torn to pieces.

    Such struggles were a daily occurrence in his life.

    “Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…”

    The artificial eye came out crushed.

    My nails were clenching my forehead and skin in an ugly way.

    Tears and blood flow together.

    Nathaniel appeared in an unusual manner.

    – Joo Gong-hyeok?

    I fought until I was completely destroyed.

    They gave up on humans and replaced their entire bodies with machines.

    He handed over his mind to his avatar and fought by replacing his lost organs with those of the monster.

    Such struggles were a daily occurrence in his life.

    “It would have been okay if I hadn’t killed him.”

    Turn your head toward the voice.

    I saw Julia Froebe with tawny hair.

    The first idol of Joo Gong-hyeok.

    The fifth lover of Joo Gong-hyeok.

    The twelfth fall of Zhou Gonghyeok.

    She lifted her shoulder-length hair.

    There was a sharp scar on the carotid artery where Joo Gong-hyeok had pierced the terrible blood stain.

    “I didn’t have to die?”

    She cried like she was about to die.

    “Liar killer.”

    Joo Gong-hyeok’s mouth went dry from the pure accusation.

    I barely managed to move my stiff tongue.

    “You tricked me.”

    Grinding his teeth and chewing his anger he spat out one word to her.

    “You and Ben-Hur have deceived me so that your grandson will take over the Earth…”

    “It would have been okay if I hadn’t killed him.”

    She cried and turned her back.

    It just faded away.

    ‘I didn’t have to kill him?’

    no.

    I should have killed him.

    Because she brings destruction to the world.

    Those who brought destruction to the world so far have been dealt with with their own hands.

    To prevent the destruction of the world I had to kill even if I didn’t want to.

    Until just ‘a little while ago’.

    “Hahahahahaha….”

    It wasn’t just one or two.

    Those who killed for no reason.

    People who kill for rewards and sometimes just for fun.

    “What on earth did you do?”

    “shut up.”

    The following self-talk.

    Nathaniel appeared on his shoulder in an unusual manner.

    – Joo Gong-hyeok stop. I wonder if something is happening down there…

    “Shut up.”

    The one remaining eye flashed through the torn red skin.

    “Please shut up.”

    A shallow wind rises around him.

    The release of magical power that flows with emotions.

    “What the fuck did I do?”

    A fierce storm arises around him.

    “What did you do? Oooh—!”

    The magical power surged up to 1km above the well entrance.

    Quaaaa—!

    The entrance to the well sparkles with magical power.

    Sometimes it’s sparks sometimes it’s lightning sometimes it’s wind sometimes it’s fog.

    The state of magical power changes aimlessly.

    “A dog like a dog! “Fuck you!”

    Screams mingled with the raging storm.

    “why! “If there was something like this it wouldn’t have come out a long time ago!”

    The bricks of the well melt into the magic power that turns into plasma.

    Flames rise beyond the well entrance.

    “why! why! why—! Now something like this! “It came out!”

    A man kneeled on the surface of the water.

    “Then… what have I done so far?”

    I looked down at my hands.

    No one has ever been saved with these two hands.

    The world collapsed time after time.

    These two hands have achieved nothing.

    I couldn’t find anything and just…

    “I killed someone.”

    He covered his bloody face with both hands.

    Through this the world could be saved.

    You don’t have to kill all the hunters.

    Then Joo Gong-hyeok…

    “Why do I go around killing people?”

    Why did I kill people for no reason?

    How many people have been killed senselessly?

    My vision turned white.

    My entire head starting from my throat was full of pain.

    I can’t think of anything.

    But all kinds of thoughts filled my head.

    ‘How many people have been killed senselessly?’

    I killed you thinking that you would all die anyway to save the world.

    But it wasn’t like that.

    If you erase the hunters’ avatars with the power of the Demon King there will be no need to kill them all.

    Now that I have discovered the Demon King’s avatar…

    Their deaths are dog deaths.

    He was caught up in the madness of a crazy killer.

    “I did everything to kill all the hunters this time too. “I already killed a lot of people to kill all the hunters.”

    It’s wrong.

    Everything went wrong.

    “Where did it go wrong?”

    A long time ago.

    Joo Gong-hyeok just wanted to do the right thing.

    I was sad to lose someone I loved.

    I was angry at myself for not being able to help someone in danger.

    I felt ashamed that the hero I respected died in my place.

    ‘so….’

    Save a loved one help someone in danger replace a hero you respect clear the barbell and be thanked by someone and be called a hero yourself…

    “I wanted to be the right person.”

    How did I end up here?

    I kept failing and kept doing what I thought was right.

    “Why is it so different from what I first thought of and the landscape I imagined?”

    When I came to my senses I realized I had come too far.
