Chapter 122 - Purpose?
Seo-joon took Young-seong and went straight out of the building.
And the presence of darkness that can be felt following Seo-jun.
“Where are you going like that?”
However, spirituality did not seem to sense any signs of ignorance.
Instead of answering, Seo-jun silently moved.
Just like that, a corner of the Dream Team building.
It was only when he reached a deserted place that Seo-jun stopped.
That mont.
Squeak.
“Fortunately, you're alive, Young-seong.”
Suddenly, an empty space split open, and a dark star trudged through it.
“...... Darkness?”
Young-seong opened his eyes in surprise at the sudden appearance of darkness.
As expected, it seed that spirituality did not feel the signs of ignorance.
Seeing such spirituality, Amseong looked at Seojun with new eyes.
“Looking at things like this, there doesn’t seem to be a problem with stealth… I wonder how he can recognize that guy.”
“for a mont. Are you saying this child sensed your presence? Didn't you tell ?”
At the words of Youngseong asking back, Amseong nodded slightly and said,
“For so reason, that guy saw through my stealth technique. Even the Apostle of Temperance wouldn't have recognized it.”
Then, the gazes of spirituality and ignorance turned toward Seo-joon at the sa ti.
It's like, ‘Well, there are all these guys.' The expression of two people who want to.
“Haha... I just felt sothing.”
Seo-joon only laughed awkwardly.
Seeing Seo-jun like that, the two of them looked even more energetic.
But what would the truth be like?
Youngseong shook his head and asked towards the dark castle.
“More than that, ignorance. They say that your disciple is here, but is it really true?”
“okay. He is lacking in many ways, but he seems to be doing well.”
“Huh…”
Young Seong exclaid involuntarily.
Although Seo-joon said sothing, it was because he wanted to.
But when the person in question said that, I couldn't believe it.
Spirituality again spoke to the ignorance.
“I heard that a demonic disciple is also here?”
“I found out about that later. They said they hired another person besides Jimin.”
And it is a known fact that Seoyoon is the granddaughter of the swordsman.
In a word, it was a guild with descendants of the heroes of Cataclysm as guild mbers.
What kind of guild in the world would have descendants of heroes as guild mbers?
No, could such a guild exist in the first place?
It is also true that guilds that have descendants of heroes as guild mbers are bound to be pressured by the hero in so way.
It's only natural that you care about your descendants.
Naturally, there was no choice but to interfere with the guild.
The question is, who would dare to complain about the ddling against the cataclysmic hero?
Naturally, there was no choice but to be swayed by the hero, and the guild would collapse in an instant.
In this way, even one descendant of a hero had to see that there was no guild that could endure.
So, to be precise, it is not that such a guild cannot exist, but rather that
there is no one who can bear and embrace the pressure of the heroes.
By the way, the sword star, the dark star, and the demon star.
It also withstands the pressure against not one but three heroes?
The eyes of the two heroes turned to Seojun again.
“Uh… Why are you suddenly like that?”
A guild with descendants of the heroes of Cataclysm as guild mbers.
A guild whose master is the Irregular, which is impossible to estimate even if the two heroes are asured.
“What mistake did I make...?”
No matter how much I thought about it, I could only think of it as a crazy guild.
“no. It's nothing, don't worry about it.”
Amseong shook his head and continued talking.
“Stop talking about rubbish... Spirituality. Can you hear more about what happened inside the dungeon?”
Spirituality nodded and said.
“This child saved my life. The first ti I entered the Draug Dungeon after receiving a call from Taebum...”
The mont that such a long story was about to begin.
“for a mont!”
Seo-jun intervened and shouted.
Then, the eyes of the two heroes focused again.
Seojun smiled and said.
“Is it okay if I explain that?”
“Well... I'm going to do whatever I feel comfortable with.”
Amseong nodded along with Youngseong's words.
Seojun explained in detail what had happened in the Draug Dungeon to Amseong.
“But all of a sudden, the draugs started to run away, and I chased after them…”
He explained in great detail.
“And from there, sothing slled like Jinrihoe? I just felt it. ah! What tricks did the Jinrihoe do! Like this. Isn't that right, Youngseong-nim?”
“Uh... uh uh, was that so...?”
“Oh yes! That's why I was there...”
Exactly, it was very emphasized that Jinrihoe was involved.
End of such a long story.
“Is this really true?”
Sure enough, the ignorance asked about its authenticity.
Seojun proudly pointed to Youngseong next to him and shouted.
“here! Young Seong-nim is the witness of it all! Isn’t that right, Youngseong-nim?”
Then Seo-joon and Am-seong's gaze focused on spirituality.
“Actually… it is.”
Spirituality nodded slowly.
But for so reason, the expression on his face was grim.
It was also because what Seojun said was a little strange.
Seo-jun, seen by Young-seong, was crazy about dehydrating the draugs, and all he did was deal with the devil.
But suddenly what is this...?
Another funny thing is that when you look closely, there is nothing that isn't true.
“Actually... that's right.”
Spirituality was just strange.
“haha. look at that! am i? You can't lie, can you?”
Seo-joon pounded his chest and shouted.
“Do it! I have enough 10 billion... no, 10 billion to conclude that Jinrihoe is aiming for Youngseong... no, so... that's right!”
Seo-joon concluded his words with a shaless expression, probably because he didn't know.
Amseong shook his head as if he was fed up with seeing Seo-jun like that.
In fact, that's what it ans, doesn't it an that you just have to deposit money yourself?
Who in the world could say such a thing against cancer?
“......I get it. I will give you 10 billion as promised.”
However, the darkness nodded slowly without saying anything.
In a way, this case was a situation in which Amseong's mistakes were covered by Seojun.
If it wasn't for Seojun, Youngseong wouldn't be standing here right now.
If so, the ignorance would not be able to forgive itself.
“Good!”
Seojun clenched his fists and shouted softly.
“How can you not change anything about you?”
For so reason, the ignorance only let out a smile.
And Young-seong, who was quietly listening to the story.
“wait for a sec. Did the Jinrihoe target ? What did you an by that?”
Youngseong said, questioning Seojun's last words.
And it was Amseong instead of Seojun.
“Like that guy said, the Jinrihoe aid at you, Youngseong, in this Draug Dungeon.”
“... you an? why?”
“Precisely, it seems that the purpose of eliminating not only you but Jinrihoe is to eliminate the heroes of the cataclysm one after another.”
“What? Cataclysm heroes? For what reason?”
“I don’t even know that yet.”
Amseong shook his head slightly and continued.
“spirituality. Besides you, I was also threatened by Jinrihoe. None other than the Apostle of Temperance ca to .”
“An apostle of temperance? You an the apostle moved himself?”
“yes? Are you an apostle of temperance?”
Young-seong and even Seo-joon looked surprised at the sudden words of Amseong.
The Apostle of Temperance is none other than one of the Seven Apostles.
And the 7 apostles could actually be seen as the highest figure of Jinrihoe.
Did such an apostle of temperance co to the planet of darkness?
Darkness continued to speak.
“I've been chasing Beserk's trail.”
The story of Amseong that continued like that.
The story is a clue to Beserk, which the star of darkness has been chasing.
And it was about what happened with the apostle of temperance recently.
“After many twists and turns, I was able to co out alive. But why the Truth Society wants to eliminate the heroes... I'm still not quite sure.”
It was the mont when the long story of darkness ended.
‘for a mont...?'
Seo-joon felt sothing foreign in his head.
To be precise, countless concepts were pouring into Seo-joon's head.
And this feeling was also a feeling that Seojun had experienced once.
It was in the written test in the Pro Hunter exam.
So Seo-joon could also know what this ant.
None other than Insight[S].
The ability to intuitively understand and understand the problem of a phenonon.
“The reason why the Jinrihoe wants to eliminate the heroes.”
Seo-joon slowly sorted out the pouring concepts.
When it was sorted out to so extent, I opened my mouth again.
“Could it be… related to Beserk?”
At Seo-jun's sudden words, Amseong-seong and Young-seong's gaze turned to Seo-jun.
However, judging from the expressions on her face, it didn't seem like she was expecting much.
“It's just my guess, it's not accurate, so take it into account and listen.”
Seojun opened his mouth to the two of them again.
“Amseong-nim told the other day. You said Beserk isn't dead, right? He just said he suddenly disappeared. And he said it was done by a great voice and seven apostles.”
“okay. It was.”
“That's what the ignorance said.”
Along with ignorance, spirituality also nodded slowly.
Spirituality is also a hero of cataclysm, such as ignorance.
Since he was actually involved in the battle with Beserk, it was impossible not to know that fact.
“At that ti... did you say how strong Beserk was?”
“It was such a terrible monster that even if all the heroes in the world faced it, there was no guarantee of victory.”
Great Monster Beserk.
The monster of the apocalypse called Cataclysm itself and is still being talked about.
Young-seong shook his body once as if he rembered what had happened that day.
Seo-joon also couldn't imagine how strong he was to the point where he couldn't even guarantee a match against heroes from all over the world.
However, Seo Jun's insight approached the concept in a slightly different way.
“So you're saying you can't ‘assert' a match in the end?”
“What do you an?”
The ensuing question of ignorance.
Seo-joon spoke firmly.
“Isn’t it that no one knew if the end of the world would literally co or if Beserk would fall?”
It was also true that the match could not be guaranteed, which was true for both sides.
Just like the heroes weren't sure if they could defeat Beserk.
Beserk also ant that he could not be certain of winning against the heroes.
but.
“What if Jinrihoe knew about that fact?”
“what?”
“therefore... What if Jinrihoe knew the whereabouts of the match?”
“What nonsense is that?”
Youngseong shook his head, saying that it was nonsense.
But Seo-joon couldn't just let it pass.
Order Of Truth.
The Jinrihoe was ford around a man called ‘The Great Voice' and seven apostles under him, who claid that their words were the words of God.
And although it is said to be a god, in fact, the god they worship is a non-existent god.
It was not exactly a personal God, and the God they speak of is Truth.
Therefore, they were no different from claiming that their words were the truth.
At first, of course, I thought it was nonsense.
Their words are soon to be true.
There was no arrogance like this.
However, based on the experiences he had been through, Seo-joon was able to make a guess without difficulty.
“If Jinrihoe could see the future… wouldn’t it be possible?”
The two heroes tilt their heads for a mont.
“Of course, we are not looking at the perfect future. But if you can see it, even imperfectly.”
Seo-joon looked at the castle of darkness and continued.
“In a way, the observation of the Jinrihoe that Amseongnim talked about last ti can also be seen as part of this.”
“......!!”
Then, the darkness widened its eyes and looked surprised.
The last day, the ignorance said, Jinrihoe is when the target of attention does sothing.
I said you can see the results of it.
See the consequences of the target's actions.
In other words, it was like seeing the future.
And not being able to see Seo-joon.
The ntor said that Seo-jun's cause and effect had not been asured last ti.
Maybe this is why Jinrihoe couldn't see Seo-joon.
Amnesia shook her head and spat out the words.
“Yeah… Co to think of it. There is a possibility.”
“what? Are you believing that sound now?”
“If it were in the past, I would have dismissed it as bullshit… but now things are happening that I can’t just ignore.”
Amseong looked at Seojun and said.
“Go ahead.”
Seojun nodded slowly and continued.
“The Jinrihoe saw the future where Beserk collapsed even though the damage to the heroes was severe. And that's how I judged it.”
After taking a breath for a while, Seo-joon opened his mouth again.
“They say Beserk shouldn’t co out right now.”
“That ans...”
“Isn't the great voice and the seven apostles deliberately making Beserk disappear?”
Then the eyes of spirituality and ignorance began to open wide.
He then spoke in a trembling voice.
“Why the hell did the Jinrihoe do that...? Rather, what does it have to do with eliminating heroes?”
Seo-joon spoke calmly.
“Because only heroes can stand against Beserk. So, instead of releasing Beserk right away, Jinrihoe wanted to eliminate heroes who could stand against it over ti.”
“When all the heroes of Cataclysm were eliminated like that. To be precise, when there were no people who could stand against Beserk. If Beserk is released into the world again...”
A word from Seo-jun continued.
“The world can’t handle the cataclysm and is on its way to the end.”
“......!!”
“......!!”
The faces of spirituality and ignorance began to be colored with astonishnt.
And the question of spirituality that followed.
“Ha, but baby. If what you're saying is true, why do you need to do that? Ti will solve it anyway, right?”
Seojun nodded slowly.
“Yes. As Youngseong said, there is no need to go to such an extre to eliminate heroes. After all, the heroes will die at the end of their lives anyway.”
The lifespan of heroes is not infinite.
In a word, it was sothing to be left alone.
There was no reason for the Jinrihoe to go this far.
It was a problem that ti would take care of.
But what if there is not much ti left for Jinrihoe?
“Perhaps... the Jinrihoe is in a situation where Beserk cannot be captured forever. In a word, there is no ti left.”
And Insight gave this evidence of this possibility.
“Distortion.”
Seo-joon continued to speak.
“Isn’t it strange that the Distortion suddenly occurs?”
The Distortion was originally an anomaly that could only be seen during the Cataclysm.
A phenonon that has not occurred since the end of Cataclysm, but has recently begun to occur.
And Beserk is an apocalyptic monster called Cataclysm itself.
“What if the Distortion occurs as the power of Beserk, which had been sealed and disappeared, is released again?”
Therefore, the insight suggested three possibilities.
first.
“As the seal of Beserk weakened, its power spread to the world and caused distortion.”
second.
“The Jinrihoe recently discovered a way to use Beserk’s power.”
and last.
“Maybe it's both of them.”
Seo-joon looked at the two heroes for a while as he concluded his words.
“......!!”
“......!!”
Then, the expressions of the two heroes distorted beyond shock and astonishnt.
Seojun opened his mouth to the two of them again.
“But like I said, I’m not sure.”
As such, insight interprets and understands phenona based on given information.
I had no choice but to be silent about information that was not given in a word.
I can only infer.
The reason why the insight was activated now was because Seojun had heard the clues about Beserk and the story of the Apostle of Temperance from Amseong.
“The thoughts I have just expressed are based on the fact that the purpose of Jinrihoe is not pure. More precisely, they are possibilities based on the assumption that Jinrihoe aims at the end of the earth.”
however.
“Isn’t that what Jinrihoe did?”
In the anti, Jinrihoe's actions were not at all like that.
If Jinrihoe really had impure intentions.
It would have been enough if I had stayed still from the beginning.
But Jinrihoe not only ended the cataclysm.
Like the heroes of Cataclysm, it was clear that he saved people and sacrificed them.
If the end of the earth was the goal, it would have been enough if the heroes had been hostile in the first place.
Or after the heroes and Beserk were destroyed.
It was enough for a great voice and seven apostles to rule the world.
They had enough power to do that.
But did I really need to draw such a big picture?
One more thing above all.
What if the future Jinrihoe saw wasn't the future where Beserk collapsed?
In fact, contrary to Seo-jun's expectations, what if the world lacks the power to deal with Beserk and is nothing more than a temporary seal?
“There are so many inconsistent actions. So little has been revealed about Jinrihoe.”
In the first place, Seo-jun was not even sure that the great voice existed.
It's just because the heroes of the cataclysm saw it.
Too little information has yet been revealed to fully believe in the potential for insight.
“......”
“......”
However, despite the reasoning based on that piece of information, the two heroes couldn’t help but be astonished.
‘Oh, how is this...'
‘What are you really doing...'
Not even a cataclysmic hero, but a re pro hunter can say such a thing.
And that's a newbie who just got an A-class hunter's license.
Of course, as Seo-jun said, it was just a simple possibility.
Even the two heroes didn't know much about Jinrihoe.
But if...
Seojun's words are true.
What will happen if Beserk is liberated again soday?
Now the heroes were getting older and losing their strength.
And today's professional hunters can't stop Beserk.
A job that is not just about making money.
Will this world have the power to stop the monster of the end?
The heads of both ignorance and spirituality turned toward Seo-joon at the sa ti.
and thoughts that co to mind.
‘If this guy...'
‘If this kid...'
But the two heroes shook their heads right away.
No matter how amazing Seojun was, it wasn't Beserk.
Beserk is literally the monster of the apocalypse.
It is a monster that can never be defeated.
It must be so.
“Uh…why do you say that?”
What is this tickle that rises from the corner of my heart?
“......”
“......”
The two heroes could not define their feelings.
