The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 238

“Nevertheless, I guess we have to split up.”

Kyeong-in and Erica sighed softly and nodded at Joo-in’s words.

“Will it be okay between us….”

“What if we don’t cut the black dragon’s stomach open? “Is there a possibility that the gates of hell won’t open like this and it’s still inside that guy’s stomach?”

“The door inside the black dragon’s stomach is getting bigger and bigger. “It might buy us a little time… but eventually the door will open.”

“If we can buy even just that little bit of time, we’ll do our best. Den Howl.”

“Please tell me.”

Den, who thought he was still struggling from Erica’s nightmare, answered in a calm tone as if he had never done anything like that at the same time as Joo-in’s name was called.

“Is there anyone else who didn’t get caught by my future poetry?”

“I saw the future. “I just got out of there on my own.”

“Incredible.”

“Because he’s a wizard.”

Although he said it casually, I could feel a lot of pride in Den’s words.

It seemed that Namgung was dissatisfied with having to join late even though he had left this inquiry situation to himself.

“A book containing the truth of all things.”

As he muttered lowly, a thick book appeared in his hand.

“I will now begin the barrier technique. “If you use the compression barrier on the fourth page of the Book of Leah, you will be able to delay the opening of the door as much as possible even if the black dragon’s stomach explodes.”

The governor nodded at his words.

“And even if, by any chance, the barrier is broken, no one should enter the area. “I will block the door until Namgung comes.”

“It is impossible to do it alone. You must have seen it in future tense, right? More than a dozen doors will open at the same time. “There will be monsters pouring in at the same time, so how can they…”

“Because it’s a distraction.”

Erica looked puzzled at his tougher appearance, which was different from before.

“In a situation where we don’t know when Namgung will come, the only ones who can stop the monster are the people gathered here now. What we need to do is buy time, not kill the monster. Rather than fighting together at the risk of annihilation, it is important to find ways to buy time efficiently.”

“well. “To my ears, that sounds like he’s trying to become bait on his own.”

“you’re right.”

Wooooow….

Den Howl’s magic book began to emit light.

▶ The fourth page of the Book of Leah opens.

▶ Geumok (禁獄) is cast.

▶ Sorcerers are requested not to deviate from their positions.

▶ There may be extreme consumption of horsepower.

Sigh-!!

As he ran his finger across the ground, a line appeared on the floor separating him from the rest.

“And from now on, no being will be able to come out of these lines.”

Grumbling―――!!

Blue flames rose along the line drawn on the ground, and flames that flickered like an aurora began to surround the black dragon.

[Kaaaaaa―――!!!]

The black dragon’s scream was heard.

However, as if it had been muted, its screams disappeared in an instant, and only Den Howl’s back was visible through the flickering flames.

“Now wait a minute!!!”

“I can’t do it alone!!”

“Everyone, come to your senses!! Den… is casting a large-scale spell! What are they doing?!!”

The moment several wizards from the magic unit who woke up from the future saw Den Howl’s magic, they were astonished and began to shout.

The magic unit’s staff tried to wake up the wizards who had not yet woken up by slapping their cheeks.

“Come to your senses!! “Den is in danger!!”

The staff member looked at Erica while shaking the wizards by their collars.

“How can’t I do this?”

“Future poetry is over. However, each person’s recovery ability is different. “It will resolve itself after a certain period of time, so don’t worry too much.”

“I can’t… It’s urgent… Damn it, you said it’s over! “I mean, come to your senses!!”

“What’s going on? “Is that magic that dangerous?”

“It is not dangerous. Originally, Namgung ordered me to learn the magic on the third page of the Book of Leah. However, after deep research, Den was able to open the fourth page.”

The aide answered Gyeongin’s question.

“But all the magic on page four is large-scale magic. This is magic that even Den, the revealer, cannot do alone. “You’re casting it by yourself right now… your magic power will be depleted in an instant.”

“Den Howl didn’t tell us that…”

“I guess it’s because you showed us the future. “It may have meant to be on guard, but… Den would have thought differently.”

The staff member spoke with a pale face as he looked at the magic circle being formed.

“There is nothing more rational than saving the majority at the expense of the minority.”

“What nonsense is that…”

“Do you know what the characteristics of people who have the talent of a wizard are? Most of them are researchers or academics. I was also at George Mason University in Virginia.”

The chief of staff continued speaking by introducing himself to the three people.

“Magic is not an illusion. Along with alchemy, it is an art that created science over time. Therefore, wizards are also not people who chase illusions.”

“It means they are the most rational people.”

“you’re right.”

Joo Joo-in snorted at his advisor’s words.

“If you ask someone to sacrifice the few for the many, it would be coercion, but you chose it yourself.”

“so? Are you saying that what he did now was a great act? “That frustrating person really irritates me.”

“…yes?”

Ju Ju-in’s face distorted.

The aide could not hide his embarrassment at the anger of the chief executive, which was different from his expectations of feeling sorry or grateful.

“You made fools of us.”

He nervously kicked the barrier created by Den Howl and took out a small controller strapped to his waist.

“Connect to the server.”

When he put the controller down on the floor, dozens of holograms appeared at once.

“Notify all ships in the sea area. “Check the people remaining on the island and evacuate immediately.”

-Right.

“Drones in the sky monitor Den Howl’s barrier. “Please report any abnormalities to me as soon as they occur.”

-All right.

“What Jusain said is correct. It turned out to be quite unsightly. “Isn’t that right?”

Erica seemed to know why Joo-in was angry. This was because they were not beings who needed to be protected, but colleagues who had to fight together.

“I will prepare the magicians of the secret moon.”

Katsumata nodded at her words and disappeared.

“Kyungin. “You wake up the rest of the kids.”

“All right.”

“What do you plan to do?”

The magic unit’s staff cautiously asked Jusin.

“Before the barrier is breached, we break through it first and go inside.”

“…yes?! “Don’t you know what Den was thinking when he cast the barrier?”

“know. No, it’s annoying. Are the sacrifices of a few reasonable? Do not be ridiculous. “It is clear that you wizards are still a group of illusionists.”

“What is that…”

“To be truly rational would mean to create an escape hole and then do something like this. “Why is playing a hero out of the question?”

“Tuk,”

the chief executive nervously pushed the aide’s shoulder and said.

“But we can’t deal with all the monsters that come out of that many doors.”

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo….

That was then.

The staff raised their heads at the sound of a helicopter coming from above.

-Please request permission.

“Start dropping.”

Dozens of containers hanging from helicopters fell down as soon as Joo-in gave the command.

“You organize yourself so you don’t fall on those things or people. “I will find a way.”

“Now wait a minute…!!”

The staff could no longer stop Joo-in and hastily slowed down the falling container boxes.

Slam!

Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…!!

The containers that fell to the ground due to their speed were all fixed to the ground, and bizarre machines appeared inside them.

Crackling…! Chijijijijiji…!!!

Inside the machine was a huge jewel, and the outside of the jewel was filled with unknown characters.

“…Rune?”

The staff realized that it was not engraved letters, but a bunch of runes.

-Rune armor starts charging power.

-It’s still in the testing phase, so use it with caution.

Joo Joo-in nodded to the voices of Jin Soo-hyuk and Man Deok-su.

Crackling…! It’s so crazy…!!

As the hundreds of runes embedded in the machine glowed, sharp electricity began to surround Den Howl’s barrier.

* * *

“It seems that Mr. Sain is swearing at me a lot because my ears are itching.”

Den, who was inside the barrier, touched his ears and smiled bitterly.

“But that doesn’t mean I entered the barrier without thinking.”

Jeok- Jeok- Jeok-

[Krrrrr…]

The black dragon began to growl, showing its sharp teeth as if wary of him.

“It seems like you too are having a hard time. “Gyeongin’s Arcane Shrine is a great bow, but the gate boss can’t be this weak with just one attack.”

Den spoke to the black dragon who was breathing hard.

“The ever-increasing doors must be putting pressure on the inside of the body. Eventually, as time goes by, the bulging doors will tear your body apart and pop out. “Your future… you will know it without me having to tell you.”

Den placed his hand on the black dragon’s forehead.

“Maybe you too are one of the carnival’s victims.”

[Crook…!!]

“You have two choices. One is to face death like the boss of the door. “It must be following a predetermined fate.”

Uuuuung….

“The fate of death.”

Sigh,

Den opened the Book of Leah.

“It’s literally extinction. Your existence will disappear forever. But there are ways to protect your soul. “Through your Dragon Heart, you open the last page of this book.”

The pages of the magic book began to turn quickly.

But just one piece.

The dark red rune words sparkled, but the last page of the magic book did not appear.

“Actually, I was waiting for you too. This is probably something that even Mr. Namgung doesn’t know. “He must have thought I could get to the third page.”

Jiiiiing…!!

As he placed his palm on the last page, something jumped out from within the glowing runes.

“But after I got to the fourth page, I was given this.”

It was a piece of parchment with a red seal.

▶ A legendary level quest has been obtained.

“Wizards are more rational beings than anyone else.”

Sigh-!!

He tore the parchment with all his might.

▶ Hidden quest 『End Magic』 has been added.
