Became the youngest disciple of God of War - Episode 324

324fury

My sister-in-law's words were somewhat shocking to me, who thought there were dozens, or at most hundreds..

If so, the number would far exceed tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands..

I wouldn't have believed it if it wasn't from my sister-in-law.?

It felt like the scope of my perception of the world was vastly expanded, and the sister-in-law said with a low smile..

“A world is, for example, the mountain below. A towering peak. So climbing the mountain peak means becoming the absolute ruler of the world. Now, how do you think Luan would feel when she first reached that mountain peak??”

“…….”

I looked down at Yeongsan thoughtfully at those words..

Now the sister-in-law was asking.

How would it feel if I became the strongest person in my world - that is, the best person in the world?.

Mountaineering refers to the process of climbing from the lowest place to the highest place. The process probably won't be easy..

Climbing a mountain for the rest of your life and going through all kinds of hardships.

Even though I get hurt and almost die, my mind and body will gradually improve..

And finally, you reach the top, and your tired body receives complete rest for the first time..

That kind of situation.

When I see a scenery that only I and I are allowed to see in a place where there is nothing.…….

How will a human being like me feel??

“It might be a bit vain..”

I said it to myself and was a little surprised..

For some reason, the words that lingered in my head were things like a sense of accomplishment and pride, but the words that came out of my mouth were somewhat unexpected..

However, there are times when you realize that it was your true intention only right after you said it..

The sister-in-law burst out laughing..

It was not the usual soft laugh, but a laugh so loud that it was a big deal to my sister-in-law..

“As expected, Luan resembles her teacher..”

Maybe it was because of his mood, but his smile and tone seemed a little lonely..

“Luan is right. I want to climb higher. I want to reach the top. I want to become stronger... … . For someone who runs forward with this kind of desire for improvement, a ‘complete end’ cannot be said to be a suitable reward. The empty landscape spread out at the top, the place with nowhere to go anymore, as if.”

“…….”

“It'll look like hell.”

Has the sister-in-law already seen such a scene and felt that way?.

The emotions buried in the tone were desperate..

“The majority of the Absolute spend the rest of their lives like that. They end their lives in absolute emptiness, believing the illusion that the place they climbed was the highest place to be true..”

This is the moment when the sister-in-law once again stirred the iron wire..

“But Luan, how can there be only one mountain peak under the sky??”

Whioooooooo-!

It seemed like a strong wind was coming from somewhere, and the air current surrounding Yeongsan, as well as the world, lifted in an instant..

“……!”

and i.

I was sure that I would never forget the scene unfolding before my eyes until I die..

I saw mountains that I couldn't even dare to count..

The shape of a mountain range so rugged that it was impossible to find a flat surface continued until it reached the horizon..

Thousands? Or tens of thousands?

It's not that kind of unit..

My sister-in-law's words about grains of sand suddenly came to mind..

“I call this world [Rock Mountains]. If you go one level further beyond the realm of the absolute, you will be able to observe a different world like this. You realize that the shape of the wider world is not [mountains] but [mountains]..”

I was dazed and suddenly came to my senses..

At the same time, the open world was quickly covered by a hazy air current..

What I realized later was that what the sister-in-law was saying now may be expressing some kind of state..

However, it seemed ambiguous to me because it was completely different from the state of an ordinary martial artist..

That's probably the same reason why I don't understand it. Because it’s such a distant state that it’s hard for me to even imagine right now..

“[The next step from observation is contact. If you have the courage to cross from one mountain peak to another, it is also possible to enter another world..”

“So, are we going to another world now??”

The sister-in-law smiled and said.

“Those who reach the mountain peak look at the sky for the first time. And there are scenes that can be seen the same no matter which mountain you are on. What is that??”

My sister-in-law has always liked Zen questions and answers, but this time it felt like they were especially frequent..

Although it felt a little playful…….

Rather, it felt like it was leading me to some kind of enlightenment..

“…Isn’t that a big deal??”

“well. The brightness of star clusters varies greatly depending on the surrounding environment, altitude, atmospheric conditions, and light. You can't witness the same star in a different place or on a mountain at a different height..”

“Then the clouds?”

“It's the same with stars. Isn’t Yeongsan alone extending through the clouds and reaching all the way to the sky??”

“hmm…….”

“Let’s walk a little more first. You will be able to check it soon.”

I nodded and got up again and followed my sister-in-law..

This time it went up a little more..

It took even longer.

As I was walking in the sky, the feeling that the boundaries between time and space were blurring gradually became stronger..

It was strangely hazy, it felt like I was walking in a dream..

jingle…….

Every time that happened, an appropriate bell sound was heard. As if it awakens my drunken spirit..

Thanks to this, I was able to remain conscious and not miss my sister-in-law..

And how much time has passed.

It may be absurd, but perhaps three or four days, perhaps closer to ten days, have passed..

I occasionally heard the cries of monster birds, but I was so absorbed that I may have missed them a few times..

And then the sister-in-law opened her mouth again..

“I, too, have wandered around the world quite a bit. Not as good as the third one.”

I knew this for the first time.

Thirdly, the death penalty also went back and forth between different worlds..

So, is that the reason why I can't contact you so much?.

“Is it because I am human? The world that came and went was also mostly a human world. There were significant differences in language, culture, and way of thinking. Sometimes it felt like they were completely different beings that only looked the same..”

It will be like that.

Even the seven races of the same intelligent race did not understand each other, and were busy waging war until the great evil called the Church appeared..

However, I had no idea how big the gap would be if we were humans from a completely different world, not from the same piece of land..

“However, there were clear overlaps in essential aspects..”

“The overlap?”

“Most people were afraid of death and had a consistent image of the afterlife..”

“consistent image…….”

“A place infested with evil and demons. A place of punishment, a general term referring to the most terrible and painful place where those who have committed crimes, those who have violated moral principles, and those who have betrayed humanity go after death..”

I blinked my eyes.

Suddenly, a scene unfolded in my mind..

The dead city, the twisted architecture, and the blowing wind, spread out under the green sky of despair, were wet and unpleasant, like a monster's tongue licking the skin..

Eventually, a monster resembling a tongue appeared with the sound of a ball bouncing..

“hell.”

A reply that sounds like talking to oneself.

The sister-in-law did not immediately accept my words and cast her gaze to the sky..

“All worlds were independent, but strangely enough, they had the same concept of hell. It's a strange thing. Even though they are separated by a physical distance that cannot be measured, they are depicted exactly as if they had witnessed the same picture together... … . It's as if the moon's shape remains unwavering no matter which mountain you look at the sky from. Isn't that right? Even if it's on the other side of the world, the moon's appearance won't be any different..”

“what is that…….”

“So hell is the moon in the night sky.”

At that moment, an absurd possibility shot through my head like lightning..

I spoke in a somewhat slurred voice.

“Wait. private residence. Those words could not be-.”

“yes. All hells are connected. The hell of the world I was in and the hell of the world Luan was in are essentially the same place..”

The sister-in-law laughed again.

“Luan, I told you earlier, right? Are you ready to see hell? … . Does that sound a little different now??”

***

I heard the monster's cry seven more times..

This time, I counted accurately because I was not distracted, but I talked to my sister-in-law about many things over the course of seven days and nights..

“What does that constellation look like??”

“pig tail?”

“It's a water snake. What's in the northwest?”

“…It's not a cat?”

“It's a whale.”

“Just kidding?”

“There's a tail on your butt, right? The starlight is dim now so you won't be able to see it well.”

“ah.”

“Luan, you need to take a good look..”

“…….”

Even though the sister could not see, she pointed in the correct direction..

Sometimes, I felt like I was seeing the world better than I was with my two eyes intact..

I wasn't particularly interested in astronomy, but it was quite fun to look at the constellations pointed out by the sister-in-law..

“The moon, which brightens the dark night sky, also symbolizes hope. In fact, when you walk through a forest in the middle of the night, the moonlight seeping through the branches is the only torch and guidepost to clear the darkness..”

Although the moon could not be seen yet, my sister often explained the moon to me..

Isn't it because it's our destination?.

“What does Luan think of the moon??”

“…well.”

I looked up at the sky.

Still can't see the moon, but there's probably a moon somewhere in the sky.

The sister-in-law probably knows the existence of the moon and says it..

Since I can't see anything, I can only find it in my head. I said, recalling the moon I had seen from time to time in the past..

“I'm like a queen who rules the night sky.”

The sister-in-law laughed softly..

“That's a funny expression. Is it because the moon is the brightest??”

“Yes? It's pretty when you look at it. I think people who like the stars might also like the moon..”

“It's the opposite. In general, the moon is not treated very well by astronomers. The light source is so strong that it even swallows up the light of other stars..”

“ah.”

“Some people view the moon, which changes shape every night, as a symbol of imperfection. When looking at the pure white full moon, many people feel an unknown sense of foreboding, anxiety, and unprecedented madness. So the moon is a very ambivalent symbol..”

“…….”

From what I heard, it turns out that the moon symbolizes one of the six demon lords of hell..

The sister-in-law said with a smile.

“Now, do you understand that the moon is the entrance to hell??”

I felt embarrassed and scratched my head for no reason..

I guess I showed a suspicious look knowingly or unknowingly..

In fact, it is unavoidable..

Do you think the moon is the entrance to hell, or should we go there by climbing an invisible staircase? … . If it weren't for what his sister-in-law said, he might have been slapped right away..

“In this world, the moon is the only entrance to hell, but for most people, it is just an entrance..”

In other words, it is only an entrance, meaning it cannot be an exit..

In other words, once you go in, there is no way to get out again..

Only then did I realize the sister-in-law's intention..

“It means go to hell and control the instrument inside my body.?”

“That's half right.”

“But sir, the instrument is quite quiet right now..”

“That would be the case if we left it as is. But I don't know what will happen if I use Jinki..”

“Before the end of the war, a music troupe was built and the instruments were sealed there. Since it is a completely different position from the internal power established in the bottom battle, wouldn’t it be okay to use Jinki??”

“The human body's vascular system is more closely connected than Luan thought. When the power of the lower deck is strong, the instrument will also remain silent, but if the balance of power is reversed, there is no way to know what reaction will occur. Luan needs to master the instrument as soon as possible..”

“hmm.”

Then the instrument in my heart felt uncomfortable again..

I thought I had finally calmed down…….

According to what your sister-in-law said, it's not that you've become quiet, it's that you're waiting for an opportunity..

I looked up at the sky.

Cloudy gray sky, still no moon visible.

“When will you arrive?…….”

The sister-in-law smiled..

“Starting tomorrow, I will have to move forward alone..”

And at some point, the sister-in-law disappeared..

I was a little embarrassed, but that was all..

I predicted that my sister-in-law would disappear, and even if that didn't happen, I didn't think that the current situation would continue..

“After the descent, is it a hike?.”

When I trained with Arang, my goal was Hassan, but this time it's the opposite..

Of course, if you think about it, it’s not like climbing a mountain, so it’s like ascending to heaven… No, the destination is the moon, so should I call it 登月??

I sighed and took a step forward..

“……?!”

The sudden fall began with the feeling that my body was sinking..

Violation of this may result in criminal and civil legal liability..
