Chapter 265 – Complete. The Real End

I fell straight into the cracks.

Just before I arrived, the returner was repeatedly committing suicide and resurrection by stabbing himself in the neck with a dagger.

“Hey hey hey. “Stop it.”

“Wow…”

It is completely like a zombie.

Even if he dies, he cannot die and instead of being revived, his intelligence continues to decline. This damned curse of immortality will torment him forever.

Of course, since my intelligence is low enough to not understand the pain itself, it doesn’t really matter.

Anyway, he eventually found the entrance to the treasure trove.

“Good job.”

I de-summoned him.

No need for an ignorant explorer.

From now on, you must go inside and meet Marduk.

To be exact, I had to touch his body. That way, the evil spirit will be able to absorb him.

[Wait a minute!!!]

“Yes?”

[Take this before you go in.]

“This is…”

A golden reward box fell in front of me.

“What is this all of a sudden?”

[It is given in return for completing the mission to find Marduk’s treasure. It means that the request has been achieved.]

“Huh.”

It seems that they randomly gave a request and then immediately completed it and received a reward.

I was using the system properly.

“Is it possible to manipulate the items inside this?”

[Huh. It’s already been rigged. Furthermore, it is the perfect item to deal with Marduk.]

“Huh.”

I opened the box right away.

In fact, it was no different from giving a cheat to capture Marduk.

Well, now that we can interfere with the system itself, this would be easy.

“This is.!”

[What do you think?]

The item the evil spirit kept was a very novel weapon.

[Tax Collector’s Wish: The more goods the opponent has, the more powerful he can be. Every time you fail to suppress and steal the goods, the power doubles. This stacks up to 10 times.]

“This means defeating Marduk.”

[Yes.]

“But… Is it possible to approach? “I don’t even know what Marduk looks like to begin with.”

[Marduk is a large lizard.]

It meant dragon.

“Huh.”

[Kang In-ho. First, chew on that before you go in.]

“Ah.”

At that time, Agaf told me to take Last Dance.

It is a magic herb that repeats the day infinitely from the moment you take it until you eat the root.

“It’s so damn bitter.”

I wrote it dirty.

Still, it wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t eat it, so I forced myself to chew it and swallow it.

Now, from this moment on, my day repeats.

“Then…”

[Let’s start hunting Marduk.]

I went into the treasure chest with Agaf.

Holding tight to the tax collector’s wishes.

******

Marduk is a dragon who ascended to the position of god.

He enjoyed putting all the gold and silver treasures and various other valuable items he had collected over a long period of time in his rare and then sleeping on them.

In short, for him, these treasures could be seen as the driving force that enabled him to ascend to the throne and his identity itself.

“Hmm…?”

Soon, Marduk looked down at the man who appeared trampling on his precious treasures.

He was a human who came through the entrance legitimately.

Marduk was curious to see a guest after such a long time.

In order to enter your residence, you must break through a dimensional rift.

The other person is saying that that is possible.

Above all, the opponent’s value was set high in that he did not break through the barrier using instantaneous movement or other tricks.

At this level, he is a talent that could be made of gold and displayed.

[Okay. Look. Human. Why did you come here?]

Marduk was going to turn the other person into gold after hearing the reason for his visit.

That was his specialty. After being kind to poor creatures, he had a hobby of turning them into gold nuggets and putting them in a warehouse.

“I came to kill you.”

[Huh?]

“Search obediently, Marduk. “This is already the 42nd attempt.”

[What is that…]

Marduk did not understand the man’s words.

He came to kill himself.

Most of the people who entered the treasure room were people who came for their own treasure.

Or, they are the ones who came to beg to lend me something they really need because it is in this treasure trove.

In any case, the moment you step into a treasure trove, you are bound to become blinded by the treasures and lose your senses, greedy for them, but the man didn’t seem to have any change in his expression.

No, he looked annoyed.

Even with this countless treasure in front of him, he was only looking at himself.

[You guy.]

When Marduk realized that this was indeed the man who had come to kill him, he couldn’t help but laugh.

It’s so complacent and pitiful that a mere human would dare to do something to God…

Kwaang!!!!!

[Quaaa!!!!]

For Kang In-ho, this was a scene that had already been repeated 42 times.

Question and answer dance.

Kang In-ho started the attack.

With each swing of the club he was holding, the tax collector’s wish, the air trembled, and the treasury shook.

A club that displays destructive power that has already been stacked 10 times.

The treasure trove collapsed.

“Tail attack to the right. I avoided it. Arrow from the left leg. I avoided it.”

After dying 42 times, Kang In-ho had almost completely memorized Marduk’s pattern.

After dodging the attack that unfolded every second as if possessed, he activated the Monster King skill at the correct timing and fired a lightning bolt towards Marduk.

As expected, avoidance. However, I aimed for this.

Without any delay, Kang In-ho cast Archangel and then injected divine power into the remnants of lightning that were blowing and spreading across the floor, forming her seal.

“Agape!”

[Activation.!!!]

At the same time, the seal is activated at the exact timing with Agaf.

A technique that stops the movement of a god, even if only for a moment.

1 second.

I earned 1 second.

Kang In-ho has already caught Marduk’s back through phase transfer.

This brought us close to 99% success in 42 attempts.

What will make up for the last 1% is Marduk’s carelessness.

They let their guard down and wonder if it would be a big deal just because a human touches their own body.

That carelessness was necessary.

Thumping.

“Haha. Fuck.”

We finally reached it.

The palm briefly touched Marduk’s hind leg.

This was enough. The battle to conquer Marduk, which took about 42 searches, was successfully completed.

That’s right.

[Quaaaaa!!!!! You guy!!!!! What on earth did you do!!!!!!]

If this isn’t a successful conclusion when you’re so excited and excited, then what else could possibly be a successful conclusion?

“Transition.”

Kang In-ho immediately escaped from the treasure room.

If I stay any longer, I’ll just die. This is something he already experienced in his 39th death.

If you think you’ve won and stay in the treasure room, you’ll be crushed and crushed to death along with Marduk.

Marduk’s greed for treasure was so great that when he died, he was a madman who blew up the entire treasure trove, saying he would die with the treasure.

“Whoa.”

[It was hard.]

“I know. “I really worked hard.”

Agaf was unable to participate in Kang In-ho’s 42 loops.

Because it only applied to Kang In-ho who took Last Dance.

She simply guessed through Kang In-ho’s reaction how many tries he succeeded.

[Good luck!! Marduk has been absorbed!]

Soon the excited voice of the evil spirit was heard.

It meant that Marduk had been successfully absorbed.

Finally, Kang In-ho fell to the ground, chewed the root of the Last Dance and swallowed it without hesitation.

It was the end of 42 loops.

“So… What happens now?”

[From now on, I will make Agap a god and at the same time awaken Asmorphia. And I will resurrect Deibos, the god of the law, and feed it to Asmorphia.]

“Do I have to catch Daybos too?”

[No, no. It’s okay if you don’t go that far. You… Um. Okay. Get some rest now. Oh, and I’ll have to take Agaf with me for a while.]

“Ah.”

Agaf and I have been together ever since we gained a base after the disaster began.

He was always by my side when I was eating, when I entered the labyrinth, and when I was having fun with the girls.

Moreover, he even cast a spell called ‘Connect to the Heart’ and agreed to die in my stead if I were to die.

Maybe it wasn’t a true companion.

[It feels like a sudden breakup.]

“I know. “I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.”

[I see.]

At the beginning of the disaster, I had no idea it would turn out like this.

Maybe if I hadn’t liberated the evil spirit from the Void Serpent.

If that were the case, I might have continued to sacrifice the gods by now and do as he pleases.

“Thank you for your hard work, Agap.”

[What. You really worked hard. Humanity is indebted to you.]

“Huh. That’s right. “Will the survivors even know that I behaved like a dog?”

[If you don’t know, you should go and find out. Receive taxes too.]

“Haha. Haha!”

Agaf, who wants to collect taxes.

Those words also contained the meaning that we could no longer be together.

“See you often.”

[Of course. I’m not disappearing. It’s just a step-up. And I will always watch over you. Because the heart connection still remains.]

“This won’t go away?”

[Do you want it removed?]

“No, not at all.”

[Then let’s keep it. I will prevent your death.]

“Flaw. It’s so reassuring.”

[You’re comrades.]

Okay. Agaf and I are comrades in arms.

A comrade in arms who have been with me for a much longer time than my women.

“Thank you.”

[I am. It was a heart-pounding adventure after a long time.]

Soon Agaf’s voice became faint.

He probably went to the newly created Manmajeon.

When Agaf’s presence was completely gone, the evil spirit spoke.

[It will probably take some time for Asmorphia to awaken and Agaf to become a god! The winter nights will be over within a week.]

“Oh. Thank you.”

[What. Oh, and don’t call me a bastard anymore.]

“Yes?”

[The evil spirit is friendly to humanity. Okay. From now on, call me Inshin.]

“Human God”

[Okay. That’s good.]

The evil spirit laughed.

It feels even brighter after the existence of the Void Snake disappeared.

He seemed happy, perhaps because he was free from negative influences.

Yes, this is a monster… No. It must have been the original personality of the human being.

[Well, you worked hard! Savior of mankind.]

“Ha. Haha.”

With those words, the human being also slowly disappeared.

Now, they will build the Hall of Ten Demons, the Hall of Ten Demons, and the Hall of Gods, create the God Realm, and then protect this world.

All I have to do is communicate occasionally and then eat some soybean paste.

“It’s the end.”

The sun hadn’t risen yet, so I looked up at the dark night sky and stretched out.

The journey, which seemed long but was not as long as expected, has come to an end.

“I’m hungry.”

I turned to the base.

Starting today, I plan to spend some time with my family and my wife.

I really need to have a wedding.

He could become the first Korean man in the 21st century to have five wives.

Now that I think about it, the pagans who were accepted as our base are now settling in, so I need to pay more attention to their lives.

Well, nothing much changes right now.

The labyrinth is still being created, and the disasters that Hero abandoned remain.

However, it was important to rebuild the Sammanjeon and create gods on my side, and that it would no longer be dark as long as I had their help.

Yes, the situation of despair has passed.

The sun will rise soon.

All that remains is to rebuild human civilization in the place where the disaster has swept away.

Revenge on the hero who illegally dumped trash into our world…

‘The champion chosen by the Void Serpent will take care of it.’

Since there was nothing better to be involved with, I gave up on revenge.

Still, thanks to him, he became the master of the earth and the husband of five wives at the same time, so it doesn’t seem like he was in a very bad business.

“Guys. Let’s eat!”

What should I eat today?

Okay. Of course, it would be nice to have a home-cooked meal prepared by her mother.

Or a hamburger would be good too.

I hope you have peace today.

I wish you good luck in everything that will happen in the future.
