When the Dragon King entered the Mystery Palace and began to paint memories.

Baek Hyun arrived right in front of Abyss. Amazon's Abyss was very different from the Abyss of the Flower Spring. Abyss here was not blocked by a barrier, nor was there any defense against the appearance of monsters.

No, I didn't think I should defend myself in the first place. Baek Hyun looked around. There was a town built here that could be called Abyss' nose. In fact, it felt like a huge campsite rather than a village.

“Are you insane?”

Whether it's a village or a campsite, the essence of where many people live is the same. Hundreds of people seemed to live on a scale. But the village was now empty. I don't feel popular in any tent. I checked and it was clear that I left here at least a few days ago.

[You know what? When you go to a blind country, people with eyes open are treated like assholes.]

“What are you talking about? ”

[For the indigenous peoples here, this may be natural. Your common sense and their common sense will be different.]

Cross the town with no one. Strange sculptures of meaning were erected throughout the town. They were sculptures that shaped various monsters, not the beasts of the world.

[After coming to Amazon for research, I heard this. Amazon's Abyss was almost neglected from the start. There are five Abyss, and this jungle is too vast and dangerous to leave. Besides, there are many closed indigenous tribes that have their own cultures and reject outside civilizations.]

Baek Hyun stopped outside the town, closest to Abyss. There was a huge pit. Of course it wasn't Abyss, and it seemed to be an artificially dug hole by the villagers. Baek Hyun looks down.

[Well, it smells good.]

The Nightmare Decider smiled. Baek Hyun frowns and looks down at the pit. The splashy dirt had an ominous and foul odor.

[Quite a lot of people died in there. Is this your own culture of punishment? Hmmm. Less than that. In that case, it's usually human trafficking.]

“Human trafficking?”

[Sacrifice of life. In the human faith, human manhood can never be beaten. Even if he never asked for it himself, he must give something to transcendent beings.]

Baek Hyun snuck over the pit. He left the empty village behind and headed back to Abyss.

[Faith is not necessarily profound. The simpler civilization is, the simpler faith is. Far away people thought it was God, even lightning flashing in the sky or natural disasters. I didn't understand what they were at the time. How about this? You can see what the people here think of you as a god?]

“Abyss.”

Even so, Baek Hyun is a civilization after all. For him who was born in Seoul, South Korea, the forest has only been through the forest of Seoul or nearby mountains, and faith is only about churches, temples and cathedrals. That is why he could not reasonably understand the Aboriginal faith.

[Well, it's different from your common sense. But that's not true for the people here. For them, Abyss appeared suddenly, more often than a genius, and was an unknown being who gave them a direct fear. They're not the only ones. The faith in Abyss is pretty widespread out there, isn't it?]

“I'm a cult. ”

[It's a universal object to believe in. Even more so in that it is incomprehensible.]

“So you even went to human trafficking? ”

[It's your own way of communicating with fearful beings that you don't understand... Hmm. But this is a bit too radical and ignorant.]

The nightmare maker mutters and looks back. She sits on Baek Hyun's shoulder, holding his ear like a bus handle.

[The location of the town is too close. I wanted to be close to God, but I thought it might be. At this distance, you face a monster that protrudes from Abyss right away.]

“I run a vigilante. ”

[Maybe, but it would have been if we hadn't built a town here in the first place.]

“It was obsolete in its entirety, but the village itself wasn't here long ago. No one.”

[Hmm, in many ways unknown.]

Baek Hyun's steps stopped.

He reaches out his head and looks down. One more step and he falls into that deep, deep abyss. I'm looking openly at Abyss, and I don't feel different. Originally, Abyss felt like being attracted just by looking at reality. But it wasn't Abyss here. To be honest, it just felt like a giant hole.

- Kuwung! Huge power shakes the ground. Baek Hyun turns his head in the heat that blows behind him. From the Mystery Guard, I can see the fire rising.

“What the hell are you thinking? ”

Baek Hyun looks at it for a moment and turns his head.

There was someone standing over Abyss. The sachaman's hair was pushed tightly without leaving any hair on his skin. A blunt tattoo on the face, head, and entire body. The ornaments made of bone fragments were spectacular and bizarre, and the outfits were no different.

“You're not surprised. ”

“There's so much to be surprised about. Thanks to whom.”

Baek Hyun narrowed his eyes as he said so. The native who appeared suddenly nodded and laughed. He raises his hand and points to the mystery behind him.

“Isn't it wonderful? ”

“I just think I'm crazy. ”

“I'll take that as a compliment. That would be amazing. ”

“What is that body again? ”

“Come on, you know that, don't you? ”

It's not a body.

“You didn't think I wouldn't leave the apostle, did you? ”

“I didn't think I needed an apostle to leave the sanctuary and wander around at my own pace. ”

“That's true of Abyss everywhere. No matter how I am, I can't go around the world as a free material. ”

So I needed an apostle.

“We needed to be human. Well, that's all. ”

The apostle of Reverend Angel smiled. Baek Hyun grabbed his fist, staring at the apostle of Reverend Angel. Killing an Apostle does not directly strike the Reverse Heaven. I know that, but it makes me feel good to see you smile like that.

“Are you Dumbville again? ”

An inverted angel who read Baek Hyun's enemies smiled and asked.

“You know it's meaningless, right? Wouldn't it be better to try to understand each other than to be unconditionally hostile? ”

“Damn it. You still say that shit? Why, because you still don't want to kill me? ”

“Absolutely. I felt it when I first met you, but I like you. ”

“How many times have you been drinking water because of me? Don't you think it's too obsessive? ”

The reverse angel laughs again at the snarl. He opens his mouth as he touches the bone necklace that was on his neck.

“Of course, I've been hungry quite a few times because of you. But I swear, I've never been angry about him. No anger, no hatred. ”

I also don't like that slow attitude. Baek Hyun slowly unfolds the fist he held. Beyond Abyss. Just a few kilometers away. But you can hear his voice clearly, see what he looks like, and even see his little gestures. One step. Just one step. No, I don't need that either. Soon I'll be able to tear that chick apart.

But Baek Hyun didn't. The current situation in Idol cannot be understood with the knowledge and experience of the common sense or nightmare decision-maker of Baek Hyun.

In such an unknown situation, it is madness to jump away from emotions. Baek Hyun calmed down the boiling enemy. First of all, we need to understand.

‘You've grown.’

The inverted angel stares at Baek Hyun with a strange light-sensitive eye. If I scratch my temper just a little bit, I immediately attack him. But now, despite the obvious feeling of such a desire, it is oppressive to note.

I know why Baek Hyun is holding on. I thought I'd close my mouth like this, but I changed my mind. The inverted angel raised his tail and said,

“I've met you quite a few times. ”

Iron Blood Bow.

Shield armor.

“Thanks to you stirring up my spirit, he was swallowed up in chaos faster. After that, of course, thanks to you, his son became a new spirit. ”

Can we call it failure?

No. The Reverend Angel did not have much greed for the spirit. Rather, in that situation, Baek Hyun received the help of Reverend Heaven. If he hadn't dried him up, Baek Hyun would have killed the spirit himself and become the master of the Iron Blood Palace.

“You got caught in the Horn, too. ”

Nor can it be called failure. The inverted angel succeeded in reviving the monarchs who had been swallowed up by chaos. Although he did not control all of them, in the first place, the Reverend Heaven did not try to control them.

“The sun is dead to you. ”

What could be called a failure, from then on. Cheonzon, who came out by the reverse puncture, died to Baek Hyun shortly after.

“Even the bloody lion died for you, and the door you prepared for the ball didn't open. ”

That would also be a clear failure.

“I'm grateful to you. ”

Nevertheless, the reverse angel said so. I didn't just say that. The inverted angel lowered his head deeply toward Baek Hyun. Thank you? Baek Hyun doesn't understand. He stares at the Reverse Punch. No matter how much he thought, he had never done anything to be thanked by the Reverend.

“Because you were human. ”

The inverted angel raises his head. His voice was soaked in excitement and his face was full of smiles.

“How slow would it have been without you? Haha, I can't imagine. I don't even want to imagine. It's horrible.”

Reverse puncturer continued.

“The monarchs made apostles to hold each other back, but they didn't try to clash directly. No wonder. The apostle's power depends on the apostle rather than on the monarch's power. Those apostles grew up, until they promoted the monarchy to its purpose... how much time did it take? ”

The reason those apostles first clashed was because of Baek Hyun. When Carpago intervened and joined Baek Hyun with Yeonlyun. Rai Lung is in.

“It would have taken a long time for the monarchs to die without you. The apostle's power, which the monarch himself does not have, was such that he could not escape the classics of the one who was the weakest of the monarchs. ”

Baek Hyun, who did not contract with the monarch, struck Cheonzon to death.

“That was wonderful. People around the world were amazed and scared of you. ”

Why are you saying that all of a sudden?

“Not since. You've shown me all the wonderful things you can do. Outside, you fought the gummuhee twice, and in the end you won. And he killed the blood! Who could have done that without you? No, no one can. The apostle is a human being after all. Even if the Apostle says' like you ', everyone's fears go to the Monarch, not the Apostle. ”

[...] Ah.]

The decision maker of the nightmare sounds surprised. She seemed to realize what the fallen angel was trying to say. But Baek Hyun still could not understand the words of the Revenant. The inverted angel raises both hands with a smile.

“This is a very closed place. There's no place like this anywhere in the world. A primitive place away from civilization. It's fateful that five Abyss were created in a place like this, isn't it? ”

From the beginning, I thought this was the best place.

“It wasn't hard to prepare. This place had most of it. Of course, it wasn't all there, and I had to do my own thing. ”

Among the Aboriginal peoples, there were many who entered Abyss. For the indigenous peoples here, Abyss was a place that gave power to resist monsters and beasts. Some tribes celebrated adult ceremonies and made it customary to visit Abyss.

“I have chosen one of them as an apostle. ”

As a result, the inverted angel began to paint in earnest. The apostle of Reverend Angel became a tribal shaman, and after that, he led the tribe to consolidate and spread his faith in Abyss.

“How far do you know? Do you know what happened to World Eater? Why do you have followers? Do you know why the Hunters of the Blood Lion, who became dominated by Hendred, came here with their followers? ”

“... the faith of fiction. ”

“Haha! I didn't know you were there. Who gave you the advice? Decider of Nightmares? Well, advisers don't matter. That's right. I wanted to make it quick. I was originally going to pick one of them, Chimairana World Eater. Now that Kimaira is dead, and I know that the snake of World Eater and Regeneration has a special relationship... Huhu, I don't need to worry. ”

The inverted angel said that, and saw the face of Baek Hyun. He burst into laughter.

“Why don't you be a little happier? I'm telling you what you were really curious about. I don't know what the hell I'm doing. ”

“... to be so selfish. You mean there's no problem with that, right? ”

“Oh, of course I am. I'm not confident enough to screw things up. And... to thank you. ”

[Wouldn't it be better to kill him now.]

The decision maker of the nightmare suggested it in a quiet voice.

"Why?"

[I don't think that's a good thing to hear.]

‘Then we need to hear more. ’

That way you can definitely hate him.

“Well, I'll keep you posted. Followers and Matador, and the indigenous peoples here. The essence is different, but the purpose is the same. It's the creation of a god that doesn't exist. ”

“... what Matador worshipped was blood. It must be Hendred now.”

“I told you, the essence is different, but the purpose is the same. That's the same for you. ”

The inverted angel raised his hand and pointed to Baek Hyun.

“... Me too? ”

“What do you think of this world? ”

It was a sudden question.

“Isn't it too peaceful? It's been over five years since Abyss showed up. But the world didn't think of Abyss as a big threat. There are too many hunters. And thanks to the apostles. Abyss is definitely managed, and monsters are not subjugated before they cause damage. Thanks to this, the world is not afraid of Abyss and monsters, but thinks of Hunter and the Apostle as the apostles of justice. ”

The inverted angel said so and recalled Pure St. The purpose is different, but the method is the same. Pure Saint put Drave forward and made himself a definite religion.

“But what about the world now? Monsters from Abyss. Heaven and gummuhee. Those frightening monsters scared the world of Abyss again. It has nothing to do with the damage they've done. It's important that they're ‘incomprehensible' monsters. And that's the same for you. ”

Baek Hyun stares at the fingertips of the inverted angel pointing at him. The screams of being controlled by monsters once again roar in my head.

“Is there anything different about you? You must be human. But how many people think you're really human? You didn't even contract with the monarch. That overwhelming force. And yet you refuse control. ”

Numerous pricks.

“As Matador jumped, the world dismantled the administration. People now don't think the world is safe anymore. ”

One by one. The Reverse Heaven has the necessary conditions.

“All that chaotic fear becomes faith. The terror of Abyss himself, not of any monarch. It meant something to me that you excelled at Abyss. Especially the killing of the spirit and the blood. Do you know how much the chaos of Abyss boiled down when the spirit died? ”

The nightmare maker groaned. She undoubtedly sensed the shake, and came to see Baek Hyun on the basis of him.

“And the Mystery and the Dragon King. If you put the Mystery Guard here and open the ‘door’ in front of the Dragon King. The Dragon King must come here. Now it's over. King Dragon will kill the Dragon Army, and the aftermath will provoke chaos for the entire Abyss. That must be done. You can't stop the Dragon King, and the Dragon King won't stop himself. And how the Yong Seong-goon died. ”

A clump of paper appeared on the hand of the Reverse Puncher. Bloom! The fire that covered the palm of his hand burned the paper, and a stream of Seekerman smoke gushed out and covered the sky. Baek Hyun raises his head and looks up at the sky. I saw the Dragon King in the smoke. She was tearing Hamir's whole body apart.

“It's known all over the world. It's a good world. Was it a cell phone? By tapping it a few times, a lot of people will know how frightening the Dragon King is. I will fear the monster of Abyss, and I will fear Abyss himself. ”

That's what I said.

The inverted angel pauses. He stared at Baek Hyun with delightful eyes.

“By the way. To do this, there was a crucial lack of one. Do you know what that is? ”

“... ”

Baek Hyun didn't answer. My emotions were twisted and rotting in my chest.

“Chaos." No matter how much I think about it, I couldn't help it. Abyss is a chaos, but we can't artificially create chaos in this world. I have quite a temper for dealing with chaos, but I couldn't do it with the apostle's body. It was impossible to bring chaos out of Amazon's Abyss. ”

“Ha.”

Baek Hyun burst into a short laugh. The reverse angel nods, smiling face to face.

“Thank you for your help. ”

Pacheon.

“That was so cool. The power that you have chosen and burst, I have destroyed all the defensive shields that I have built. ”

Artificial chaos.

“That's why you're not my enemy. Because I had your help with everything I could do. You couldn't have done it this fast, this easy without you. Haha! That's not all. How can you, a human being, create artificial chaos? Maki who lets you use the seal of the Demon King? No human transcendence? That's not enough.”

The eyes of the inverted angel have changed. He stares at Baek Hyun with a subtle reverence. His eyes were on him, but what he saw was beyond him.

“It was you. ”

Familiarity I've always felt.

“You are the Apostle of the Throne of Abyss. ”
