Chapter 1695 – [Dead Universe-1]

I refined my strength. Not simply stronger, but sharper and more pointed. It’s a fist, but if you throw it, it can cause damage as if you were stabbed by a sharp needle.

People are like that. It’s rare to die from one or two needle pricks, so I decided it would be a pretty good torture.

Honestly, I don’t know if you’ll get pricked with a needle once or twice, but if you get stabbed dozens or hundreds of times, no matter how patient you are, it’s not going to explode. So, it becomes a lot of torture.

I turn the will in my punch into a needle and hit Just One’s body, which was split in half. Each time you land a blow, it inflicts non-fatal but negligible damage to his spirit body.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!!!!!

I decided to attack, stabbing all sides of the guy’s body. It didn’t kill him, but it screamed as if it felt the pain.

[Quaaaaa!!!!!]

“What kind of person is screaming when he has no nervous system!!!!!”

“It’s not a problem with the nervous system. Even the mental body has senses connected to it in the first place. Even if you don’t have any sense, it’s normal to be scared when you see limbs being cut off, right?

“That’s it too!!!!!”

“Wow, you’re an expert in that field.”

“Honestly, should I just play Bloodier?”

“No, there are only one or two people among us who are this good at torture.”

“Isn’t it a problem that it exists?”

Just One’s body, which was split in two, could not use its power properly. It’s not a perfect analogy, but his body was split in half, and it was a similar situation to whether or not he could use his power.

Instead, thanks to that, we were able to harass him as much as we wanted. I beat it, Eden beat it with an iron hawk, and Lulu munched on the remains and feasted for the first time in a while.

“Hmm, it’s okay. It’s delicious in its own way.”

“How do you compare to my dad?”

“Hey, where can I compare it to your dad? I’ve only had it for a year or two, but I like your dad the best. This is just junk food at best.”

“Wow, it gives me goosebumps. Is this true love?!!!”

Lulu ate the split side and all that was left was the other side.

It’s holding up pretty well so far, but it’s only a matter of time. The three of us are fighting against each other, but there is no option for us to survive here.

The only possibility would be to call colleagues, but in the end, even that would be impossible. Just as it is difficult and takes a long time for us to travel all over the universe to catch all the other Just Ones, even if we ask for help now, they will have already seen the ball by the time they get here.

Well, the more people come, the more people will be left behind. In the end, you can’t do anything.

[Yes, they are…!!!!!]

“You little brat. It’s just personal arrogance to pollute other people with your own thoughts and make them on your side and do the same. What you did was absolutely obscene.”

[Even so, the pain of this world!!!! The absurdity!!!! It never changes!!!! You guys are just traitors who are hindering our feat!!!!!]

“Hmm.”

Then I thought about what to do with this bastard.

It is difficult to bend and despair in a pure way when a person has a single, firmly held belief. For example, don’t extreme Islamists think that even if they die while causing terrorism, they will eventually go to heaven full of pleasure when they die?

Originally, in order to destroy such people’s ideology, they had to destroy it from the very foundation. If I kill him like this, he will only become a martyr in his own opinion, so I had to make him despair as his faith, faith, and trust were shattered.

At that, I smiled and approached him.

“Okay, do whatever you want.”

[What?]

“Even if you’re in that state, you still have the ability to corrupt your mind, right? Look inside my head and see if you can make me on your side. Then, I’ll let you go.”

I don’t know about Lulu, but Eden asked me with a worried expression. Looking at this, even though Eden is a transcendental person, she hasn’t experienced much of that story yet, so she doesn’t seem to be able to fully understand how strong and solid Lord’s spirit is.

Oh my, my daughter is cute like this. I also worry about my dad.

“Dad, are you okay?”

“Don’t worry. It’s not like I’m going to get hit by this guy.”

I approached its main body and placed my forehead against it. I have the confidence to do whatever it takes to delve into my psyche.

The guy didn’t refuse and was hooked. In fact, he seemed to think that if he could just subdue his spirit, he could win, even though this was nothing short of a trap. In fact, he was so cornered that there was no other way.

Haha!!! That arrogance will ultimately be your undoing!!!! You, too, will join our great will!!!!!]

And me and him recognize each other.

I told you this before, right? If you look into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you. Phantom That bastard was also a Darkness Lord before the Absolute One of Salvation, but can’t you see that he didn’t carelessly touch the abyss?

We learned a lot of information from each other, but I couldn’t know everything because I was going to be the one to get the hang of it. But I still learned the basics.

First, from their origins. First, the Just Ones were beings of a fairly high civilization who had awakened their will in a certain civilization. This is probably a race that roamed the universe in its own way in the early days of the universe, when no other intelligent life existed.

However, since they were the first, they could not find any other intelligent life forms, even though they were primitive beings… So their only goal was to develop themselves.

Afterward, a talented psychic called ‘Great Will’ was born among their race. Since I was receiving his memories, I couldn’t know the details, but he was an incredibly talented person, capable of connecting the minds of people from at least one civilization and leading them ahead.

… Honestly, if you look at that alone, the talent itself is superior to our Eden’s. Eden is very talented, just like me and my mom, but she’s still not the best, so there may be someone better than her.

Anyway, such ‘great will’ connected each other’s thoughts, narrowing the gap in ideology, and eventually sublimated into a colony or mental body, becoming the first Just One.

After that, the obvious thing is, they travel around the universe and infect all intelligent beings with their minds.

The past history of that place was vaguely familiar. The initial intention may have been good, but later it became too big and went astray. It was like eating a lot of anchovies to gain weight and then gaining weight to the point where I became overweight and moderately obese.

Now that I have roughly figured out their past history, the next step is for them to figure out my past history. What kind of reaction are you going to get? It’s kind of obvious.

[Kwaek, keuk, uhuhuh, ahhhhh!!!!! Aaaaah!!!! Aaaaa!!!!]

“It looks like they don’t have the same taste for bad food as we do. Isn’t the reaction so intense?”

“It’s called Bleedier’s specialty.”

It scattered words filled with pain everywhere. Rather than intending to do it, it is simply something that the person unconsciously exerted strength because they could not bear the pain. In short, it can be said that he was struggling because he was so mad with pain.

It must be such a huge pain that you can’t even control it. I can make a rough guess, but I’m honestly curious as to what part of it reacts that way.

[Woah, was our feat just planned? Am I just playing like a doll under the existence of absolute destiny?!]

“I don’t know.”

[I can’t believe that what has been done since the beginning of this universe was simply the result of someone’s neglect and planning!!!! This is ridiculous!!!! This was something we did ourselves, and it was purely ours alone without anyone else’s will interfere!!!! Aaaaa!!!!!]

First, one of the things that shocked me was whether destiny is absolute. Even from the perspective of the Lord Knight, the Absolute is something of a cosmic horror.

Even though I’m a roadie, I know from the way I get freaked out every time my lover Tiv comes over to visit. Even absolute beings have a unique Tiv force, but even if they are transcendental or dimensional species, there are fewer people than you think who look at the face of the absolute.

And what scared him was not even my existence as a roadie, but my life itself.

He looked into my entire life that I showed him… All the life that I experienced as a reincarnated person, suffering and growing.

He looked too far into the abyss. Even when I looked at him, I didn’t get any damage, but he was at the level of burying his face in an abyss and washing his face.

[How, how on earth!!! You, you can be alive?! What the hell!!!!!]

“I survived because I lived. Somehow, I survived because I had a lovely wife and daughter.”

[Not this, not this!!!!!! Kwaaaaa!!!!! I can’t absorb it!!! You can’t make it all one!!! This… This!!!!!]

No, it was shown on purpose, but what kind of person is reacting like that?

I watched him glow for a while. Perhaps because they were connected separately, the level 5 Bodies in Earth Castle also started running wild.

David will take care of that on his own… Anyway, the guy who continued to suffer eventually reached his limit.

[Dispute and pain were not caused by differences!!! This!!! This!!! Just living and existing itself is pain!!! Aaaaah!!!! Ahhh!!!!!!! Was our union and salvation meaningless in the first place!!!!!]

“Oh.”

[Then… I would rather choose death!!!!!]

Whoa whoa whoa!!!!!

And at that moment, a sound was heard that seemed to be hundreds or thousands of times louder than the sound of tomatoes exploding. No, in terms of outer space, it wasn’t a sound, but more of a mental or spiritual feeling, but whatever.

Just One chose to commit suicide like that. It was the vain and despairing end of a being who destroyed a civilization.

In fact, it suits me better. It’s quite exhilarating to see a being at the highest level fall to the lowest level and then be crushed to death.

“Can I eat the rest?”

“All the sweet water has gone out of that, so I’m not sure if it tastes good.”

“If I leave it, I can’t use it. Anyway, I’ll eat it well!!!!!”

A being that large does not easily disappear even if it dies. It was similar to how the Absolute cannot die even if he wants to die, and even if the Lord dies, he can somehow be resurrected depending on the case.

So Lulu ate the remains of his mental body to avoid any trouble later. The remnants of a dead spirit body are somewhat strange, but that’s because the spirit body and such parts still remain. Maybe something similar to ectoplasm? It may be a little different, though.

The Bodies also became quiet, so David seemed to understand that the situation was over and contacted me. Since there were no mental waves disrupting the radio waves, communication was connected without crackling.

-… Are you done?

“Okay.”

-How did Just One die?

“He denied the unity he had achieved, suffered and despaired, and committed suicide.”

-That’s really refreshing. Even back in my hometown, there were people who despaired because of him and made extreme choices, and that was also his end. I feel like my anger is going away a little bit.

“So he let them die like that on purpose.”

It was a simple matter for me to kill him. One hit of Hungjebungkwon is all that is needed.

However, he deliberately made her suffer the most pain and despair and ended her life by suicide. It is natural for victims to want their enemies to die painfully rather than peacefully, and it is also good for their mental health.

Of course, this is not the end. Because there are probably countless Just Ones spread throughout this universe. Fortunately… No, not fortunately. The survivors in this universe are like the survivors of the From Earth, so it didn’t deteriorate into the worst case scenario.

“How are you going to deal with the Vadis on the surface? If you look at them, they are alive, but they are literally just alive.”

-Is there no way to help them?

“Probably not. Both the mind and the soul have been altered. That thing is just the limbs and cells of Just One, not a human being.”

Since Just One died and its rule was lifted, so did they. However, even though it was unable to withstand the original weight and collapsed, and the surface was stained with blood, there were still people who were still breathing.

But you can’t put them back the way they were. It had deteriorated to the point where Eden’s water essence could not work, so to restore it, it needed an ability close to time regression rather than a simple recovery or regeneration ability. A time lord or an absolute ruler of time.

… In fact, without going far, it is possible to call the Absolute Man of Beginning and Origin the strongest among the Four Heavenly Kings on our side, but I do not want to call him as much as possible. Personally, Gilhyun and I have similar views on that guy.

-If I can’t help it… I’d like to at least let you go without suffering.

“Okay.”

I used my powers. Just One committed suicide after suffering, but they are the victims. So, at least the remaining body must be sent away without pain.

Wooooow.

A light energy wave spreads out. And that’s it. Beings who were merely living corpses without intelligence in the Earth Castle lose their lives.

Now all that remains is Earth Castle, where nothing is alive. At least plants might be alive, but the chances of them becoming intelligent beings were slim. Even if there is, it will be difficult for intelligent life to be born unless souls are supplied to this dimension.

From now on, it will simply be swept away by the flow of time. It is the last of Earth’s civilization.

“Let’s go back quickly.”

Now that the business is done, it’s time to go back. Because other family members will be waiting for you at Horizon.

So we left the remaining Earth Castle. On his way back, David continues to watch his home star until it enters warp. Their star that they can’t return to.

… The aftertaste is so bitter. Later, Just One guys will have to pay the price for doing this to the entire universe.
