Lawmaker, Live Again - Episode 767
Chapter 767
“What does it mean? Does this mean I'm a monster??”
“It's not. But it can be both the same and different from an ordinary human being..”
It was a strange answer.
But I guess it didn't matter. Seongju thought.
I'm hungry.
And he looks down at his arms..
The arm he bit off to protect his son's body.
“I want to revive it.”
“great. Then I'll give you this.”
It was a white liquid in a glass bottle..
“what is this……?”
“It is the medicine to become a Rakshasa. To be more precise, it should be said that the person dies and the Rakshasa grows up..”
Amazingly, he told him the truth from the beginning. Without hiding a single thing.
“When you become a Rakshasa... At night, I crave human flesh..”
“Are you telling us to become monsters that eat human meat??”
“Oh, of course, it is possible to control your nature if you practice♪ If you practice♬”
“Is it similar to Buddhist practice?.”
“yes. Learn how to meditate and keep your mind sharp, read scriptures to get enlightenment, etc..”
Baekcheon-gun said.
“It's difficult, but it's completely possible..”
“……Other conditions are?”
“Hmm, maybe just tell people about this instead of lying about it? Explain everything and give choices. Will you die as a human or survive as a monster?.”
“It's strange. It would be easier for you to cheat and feed everyone..”
“Oh no, no. I am fundamentally different from those merchants! Selling products that customers don’t want goes against my aesthetic..”
Baekcheon smiled and danced..
I don't know what the meaning of this dance is, but he continued speaking intoxicated with his own excitement..
“Even though it looks like this, I want you to be saved? Even so, in order to become a blood line, you have to accumulate merit. Regardless of whether it is blood karma or good karma..”
It seems like he gave out something, an important clue..
Hidden clues that reveal the reason for the actions of the Ten Thousand Armies of Blood Mission.
Nevertheless, Baekcheon easily continued talking..
“When it comes to true salvation, there can never be any deception.!”
“Right.”
At that moment, Seongju did not hesitate..
I immediately swallowed the white potion..
hungry.
I'm hungry.
His stomach kept screaming for food..
At first, the sound sometimes subsided. I stopped when I was hungry and tired..
However, in order to survive, you had to eat at least a little, and as you survived that way, at some point, you began to understand the feelings of parents who boiled their children because they were hungry..
Some madness bordered on despair.
hungry.
hungry.
If I could just stop this sound, I could do anything..
“Wow… Oh my... … . Hehehehe!”
Baekcheon-gun widened his eyes in surprise..
“Wow, you drink that right away without hesitation? You are truly a role model for a leader..”
A terrible pain comes over me.
My vision gets dark. It got dark, it got dark again, it got dark again.
That moment.
pakak-
I heard something breaking..
When I opened my eyes again, Baekcheon was holding a mirror..
In the mirror, I saw myself with a tiger face..
“nice… Sigh… … . really… … It's not a person. this…….”
“Wow, can you tell me how long it’s been since it changed? What a spirit..”
“But it's strange. If you say it right, I would definitely be dead, so why is it still like that??”
“Well, I told you. It depends on how you define it. You are dead and the Rakshasha who believes you are is there. But it doesn't matter, right? Your memories are the same.”
“…….”
he looks down at his hands.
The nails stuck out like blades..
Plus the fur. No matter how you look at it, it was not a human, but an animal, and that was the hand of a wild beast..
“Have I become a monster??”
Baekcheon-gun asked.
“Is that why you hate your son??”
“I still want to revive it.”
“Do you hate the people too??”
“I want to save them too.”
“What about hunger?.”
“It's hateful.”
Baekcheon-gun was happy at those words, kyahaha! burst into laughter.
“Look at it. You are you. When memories move, it means that the essence also moves. In the end, it's up to you to define it..”
“Am I the lord of Seongju? Is he a Rakshasha who believes he is the lord of the castle?.”
he muttered softly.
But it didn't matter. Because he still loved his son, cared about his people, and hated hunger..
“Well, then, please give us the quantity. Be sure to describe the product before delivering it to the customer..”
“I am…….”
“I am worried about whether you can explain well, but you are very trustworthy. is it so. If you are a customer, you will reach Diamond level later..”
“diamond?”
“yes. I would like to give a rank to those who sell this. Below the diamond grade, there are ruby, jade, sapphire, and green jade grades. General members start with gold, silver, and bronze levels..”
I couldn't tell what was happening.
One thing is certain.
“how is it? I'm still hungry?”
Seongju stroked his stomach..
The place that seemed like it had a hole in it and was trying to eat everything in the world was now just quiet and peaceful..
“This is my first time doing something like this..”
“That is Buddha. Isn’t it peaceful, as if you have been liberated??”
“If you were a real Buddha, you wouldn't need to take medicine like this..”
“yes. so…….”
Baekcheon-gun was lost in thought and said this:.
“What about the name Abu Buddha (亞佛陀), which means fake Buddha? Mr. Geumgangseok.”
“Didn’t I tell you not to lie?.”
“It's not a lie. The only difference is the name. The point is that when a person dies, a Rakshasa is born in their place..”
-what am i.
In response to that question, Seongju stood up..
He accepted a chest full of white potions..
It's the key to a false heaven.
It was a signpost for wandering through a place you don't know whether it's hell or heaven..
* * *
People were happy to become a Rakshasa.
They weren't hungry in the middle of the day, and those who didn't choose to take medicine congratulated them innocently..
However, the problem was the next day..
“mom mom!”
“grandfather!”
People who took the drug ate those who didn't..
It was natural. At night, he turns into a Rakshasa and eats people..
That instinct didn't come with a lot of patience..
The majority of humans are ordinary. Not everyone can be as patient as Seongju..
People sobbed and vomited at the fact that their family was eaten..
There were also people who committed suicide..
Those who were not eaten in the swampy field ended up taking the medicine..
If you become like them, you won't die..
Flash-
It was strange.
Because when I close and open my eyes in pain, I just turn into a different being..
Everyone who survived in the city was drugged. I thought it would be okay then.
“Is this a merchant?!”
“……A relative came to my hometown and I ended up eating him! Damn it!”
“When the scent of blood hits me at night, I lose my senses and feel like I'm going crazy... … . Wow!!”
The pain continues. hell is not over.
eat people.
Even though he didn't want to, he continued to take human flesh and lusted after human bones and human blood..
Why is this called flattery?.
Shouldn’t flattery mean something more noble?.
In the end, less than a month later, people came to Baekcheon-gun again..
“Items that have already been eaten cannot be returned. sir♬”
People's faces were filled with despair at his words..
Baekcheon-gun continued speaking..
“All you have to do is discipline your mind. So, if you sharpen your mind to become a Buddha even now,…….”
“I know! But what can I do if it doesn't happen overnight?!”
“Eat your family, eat your relatives. Is this how people live?!”
Amid the screams of the people, Baekcheon-gun picked his ears..
“Oh my, everyone is very dissatisfied. If you've done it this far, shouldn't you be satisfied?.”
After saying that, he did another strange dance..
For some reason, the dance continued gracefully..
Finally, Baekcheon-gun said:.
“I didn't cheat, and the customers agreed. Originally, no follow-up treatment was performed. What? I can't help it♪”
Baekcheon-gun raised his finger..
“We cannot revive the dead, and we cannot return those of you who have already mutated to their original state. Well, as I said before, you are not humans, but Rakshasas with human memories. so! There's only one thing I can do for you.”
“what is that!”
“Please tell me now!”
Baekcheon-gun smiled at the people who attacked him like an anglerfish..
“At least it won't make you remember what you did at night..”
“memory?”
“That's right. If what you think of as you are memories from the past, forget everything you did at night. Then it won't be your fault. Hahahaha! How are you?.”
It was the devil's suggestion.
they thought.
If they really are not people but Rakshashas who have just received memories from before,.
Nevertheless, the reason they believe they are the same people they used to be is because the memories of yesterday and today are connected..
Still loving my family, loving the sunshine, and cherishing my friends..
Because I love this hometown.
It's because of the loving 'memories'.
Then, if you throw away the unpleasant memories, if you forget them,.
Does it mean that it wasn't you who did it?.
Baekcheon-gun said.
“Ah, but it's something extra. You get paid.”
“What is it?”
“Part of our customers' souls.”
“……what is that.”
“You won't feel much. It's just part of the soul. but… … Depending on what you think, it may be something valuable.?”
“You guy…….”
Baekcheon-gun said.
“I told you so. I never cheat. If you give me a part of your soul, I will make you forget all your memories of when you became a Rakshasa..”
He danced like a madman again.
Strangely enough, the dance was very elegant and elegant..
I couldn't take my eyes off him at all..
* * *
“That's all for the memories! Thank you for watching.!”
Baekcheon-gun smiled brightly and waved his fan..
He was crazy..
All of the Ten Thousand Armies were like this, but this one was especially so..
He admired everyone's expressions..
Yeo Ha-ryun and Jashi are angry, and even Jin Cheon-hee has no idea what her expression is..
“These are people who turned into monsters because they wanted salvation, and because they didn't want to work hard, they decided to lose their memories..”
“…….”
“I just did what they wanted. Cowardly and weak. He simply gave those who wanted to turn their eyes away from their sins the salvation they wanted..”
“…….”
“As you know, I have never deceived anyone. Even the precautions for the product were properly explained.♬”
Truly a merchant of death and madness.
Baekcheongun is the strangest of the ten thousandguns..
Jin Cheon-hee was looking at him clearly..
“Ah, those eyes. I really like it. Maybe this is why all of the Ten Thousand Armies are obsessed with you..”
Inside the glacier-cold eyes, what color is the brain fluid?.
A desire to collect every last one of these fascinating offerings came to me..
