The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Chapter 253



Episode 253

“Son. “What happened?”

“Oh, you’re here just in time. “I was waiting.”

For the first time in a long time, the flames of the dwarf’s furnace were burning hotly. Thorne, who was hammering, wiped his sweat and turned his head.

“The chain you gave me. “This was really fun.”

“Have you found out anything?”

Namgung asked, glancing at the mess of hammers around Thorne.

There was no scratch on the chain, but the head of the hammer that had hit it was dented and broken.

“No, quite the opposite. “There’s nothing to figure out.”

“What does that mean?”

“I thought it must be something special because it was an item of primordial status… but surprisingly, there was nothing I could do about it.”

Thorn handed the chain that was lying in front of him to Namgung.

“This is a very different answer from what I expected. “I believe you are a capable blacksmith.”

“Cleck… I didn’t find out anything because I was competent. “If they were sloppy people, they would have been fooled by all the crude tricks written on the outside and believed nonsense.”

“Hmm…”

Namgung picked up the chain.

Crying –

As if waiting, the chain split into two and soaked into each of his arms.

“Is it because they are statuses and not humans? “It’s like the chains are looking for their owner.”

“Not really. “The owners are alive and well, so they can’t think of me as their owner.”

“You don’t know that. I told you. No matter how much I pounded on the chain, I found nothing. “On the contrary, it also means that there are countless possibilities.”

Thorn looked at Namgoong.

“Possibilities always have a twist.”

“What do you mean?”

“There is no guarantee that the owners of this chain will be Ran and Wu.”

It was an interesting story, but Namgung didn’t have much hope.

“There is an explanation attached to the chain. And it clearly says it’s a chain of friendship.”

“The information of an object can change at any time. Don’t blindly believe in it. Even if it’s just that Wu had the chain before you, that’s how it can be said in the explanation. Have you ever seen the chain’s information afterward?”

“….”

Namgung summoned a chain at Thorn’s words.

Rumbling….

When I summoned two chains, they tangled again and became one. The moment Namgung looked at the silent chain, his eyes widened.

This was because the information window did not appear.

“As expected. It looks like chains are now applied to this world. “This is probably why the chain could not be analyzed through blacksmithing.”

“What do you mean applied to this world?”

“It literally means that it has become an object of this world. “It means breaking away from the rules of the carnival.”

Namgung tilted his head.

“…is that possible?”

“It’s an unusual thing, but it’s not impossible. Like the black route. Just as the terrain of the carnival appears in this world and the terrain of this world becomes a dungeon, on the contrary, there are beings that are not of this world and are not affected by the carnival.”

Thorn pointed to himself.

“The people in the tower are similar. “If you hadn’t opened the door, we wouldn’t have been involved in the carnival while it was going on.”

“…Are you saying I woke up the chain? “But I don’t know how to use the chain properly, so I asked you to do it.”

“What does that matter? Even those who had it for thousands of years could not become its owners. “It’s important to be recognized as an owner in this short period of time.”

“I’m embarrassed. “I was hoping that you could make a weapon that could kill Aspects with this chain.”

“If we could have made something like that, we wouldn’t have lost. But aren’t you looking forward to it because I can’t make it?”

Thorn handed the hammer that was standing on the wall to Namgung.

It was the Noble Phantasm of the Dwarven royal family.

“You will make it.”

“…I?”

“okay. Because only those who are recognized as the owner can transform the chain. “If this chain really has the power to kill a god, I will answer your call.”

“I’m embarrassed. “I’ve wielded many swords, but I’ve never struck iron.”

“This isn’t about making weapons. It doesn’t require any skill. Action is just a ritual, so if you connect your mind, the chain will automatically give you the answer.”

Thorn lightly tapped Namgung on the shoulder and walked out of the furnace. Left alone, he looked at the hammer he was holding and sighed softly.

“What should I do with this….”

[Since when do you say you’ve been worrying about things in an unreasonable way?]

[Okay, just hit it once. Whether the hammer breaks or the chain breaks…]

[Or something new happens. You won’t know unless you start.]

Nameless, Lathea, and Leoric spoke to Namgung.

[Before the return, we had to risk our lives just by hunting down demons. But what about now? Not only have you annihilated all the demons, you have the demon lord as your captive.]

[…Why are you dragging me out of here?]

Demon King Natas muttered, pouting at Leoric’s words.

[Unlike when humanity was destroyed and you were the last survivor, there are many people living around you. You are no longer a time when you were desperate to survive, but you are a human being who has stepped into the realm of God.]

Grumble…!!

Leoric appeared and grabbed the handle of the hammer that Namgung was holding.

The hammer, which had felt heavy, suddenly became lighter.

[Act before worrying. That’s just how you are.]

Leoric lifted the hammer above Namgung’s head.

[This is all we can help you with. The decision is yours.]

Namgung smiled slightly at his words.

“You say action comes first?”

He struck down the chain without hesitation.

* * *

-Ten days have passed since all the monsters were eradicated.

-Contrary to what we had feared, the gates of hell were no longer opened, and each country began to work hard to rebuild the peace of the past.

-As much has happened, there are definitely many things that have changed from the past.

-Many people have gained the power of supernatural powers and are able to achieve things they had never been able to do before.

-Humanity has become even greater.

-Unlike in the past, it appears that from now on there will be differences in national power depending on the presence or absence of capable people. As a result, the world situation will change significantly, and citizens are concerned that another war may break out.

-The World Union is to mediate the disputes of each country…

“Whew…”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“thanks. “It’s not easy to sit in a position full of resentment.”

Looking at Myeong-hoon, who looked clearly tired, Gyeong-in poured water and handed it to him.

“I heard that a large number of talented people who were part of the alliance withdrew and returned to their respective countries?”

“After all, the people here were those we selected and recruited. “The ransom offered to them must be enormous.”

“that’s right. “My father and I also received a call.”

“okay?”

“Iran said they wanted to scout, but I declined. “Once the carnival is over, there is no shortage of talented people from powerful countries.”

Myung-Hoon smiled bitterly at Gyeong-In’s words.

“Because ability is directly related to national power. There is no way the government leaders do not know that the more capable people we secure now, the more powerful the country can become in the future.”

“What happened to the agreement, brother?”

Hojun, who was next to him, asked.

“It is not easy. As the association loses talented people, its power to control each country is bound to weaken. “There are countries that already have more capable people than the association.”

“Humans really want to fight constantly.”

Chanho, who was tapping on the game console, muttered without turning his head.

“There’s nothing a nerdy middle school student can’t say.”

“I don’t know why adults don’t know something that even middle school students know.”

“…Didn’t your brother call you?”

“They said it was okay because they had something else to do today. “He said he was going on a business trip.”

“business trip?”

Hojun twitched his lips and spoke to Myunghun while covering his mouth.

“He really doesn’t look like a child. Isn’t it? older brother?”

“Stop talking nonsense and everyone disperse. “Why are you all gathered here?”

Myung-Hoon waved his hand at Ho-Jun and asked back.

As expected, there were not only them but also many other people in the association’s president’s office.

“Why? “Don’t you know the reason?”

“The reason why the association’s right to speak is being ignored by each country is not actually due to the absence of competent people.”

“It’s because my dad isn’t there.”

People fell silent at Somin’s words.

“Reconstruction of the world? Era of peace? It’s all good. “When all the summoned monsters in Saipan were wiped out, the Connector of the Six-Pointed Bridge opened the end of the carnival.”

She continued.

“The world almost fell into a great crisis. Dad was the one who stopped it. But what? “No one is thinking about looking for Dad.”

“Somin. It’s not that I don’t want to find my brother. “I’m just looking for a way.”

“how?”

“That…”

Myung-Hoon avoided So-Min’s gaze with an embarrassed expression.

“But you knew that your brother wasn’t dead. “Because they said Woo (无) was released.”

“Okay, okay. “I think your brother has something planned.”

Hojun spoke carefully to comfort Somin.

“That’s why I’m more worried. “Because Dad wants to do everything on his own…”

“But right now, there’s nothing I can do other than wait for you.”

“It’s not like there’s nothing you can do.”

At that moment, Chanho put down the game console and said.

“There is no guarantee that we will find it, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do anything.”

“What are you talking about?”

“We need to find clues.”

The word [CLEAR] was clearly visible on the screen of the game console I put down.

“Where are you going to find clues?”

“That’s right, it starts from the point where Uncle Namgung disappeared. The connector of the six-way bridge took you with him. “If that’s the case, we should start by investigating people who are related to him.”

“Anyone who is related to the connector of the six-way bridge…”

“Yes, Michael. “If we investigate that person, we can at least learn about the connector of the six-way bridge.”

Everyone nodded at Chanho’s words.

In fact, it was something everyone had expected to some extent.

I knew that I needed Michael’s help to find Namgung’s traces, but I couldn’t easily persuade him.

The reason is that due to the Six-Point Bridge Connector’s actions of summoning the remaining monsters of the carnival, Michael was also branded as a traitor to humanity and was condemned by public opinion.

People on the island protested when they learned that Michael fought fiercely against his status, but many citizens who did not see him condemned him as an enemy.

In addition, with the end of Carnival, the governments of each country, who were anxious to expand their power, even used it to divert the attention of their citizens.

It was unfortunate, but soon after, news of him stopped and his whereabouts could not be found.

Jeeeeee….

It was that time.

As if he had been waiting, Myung-Hoon’s cell phone rang and the name Joo-In appeared on the screen.

“Yes, brother. Chanho said you were on a business trip. Why are you suddenly on a business trip?”

Myeong-Hoon felt something strange when he heard Sa-In’s heavy breathing coming from the other side of his cell phone.

-Michael is dead.
