Chapter 350:
Yu-hyun ignored Kwon Jia’s words and faced the Pale Knight.
You want me to kill you? You want to give up now?
After coming this far, you’re saying you’ll abandon everything?
Kwarrung. The white lotus that was thrown out spewed out a torrent. The Pale Knight stood against it. Their weapons collided and Yu-hyun’s right arm muscles tore and blood vessels burst. Blood dripped from his nose.
Pain. Even if he attacked, the shock alone damaged his ultimate body. It was not a difference in strength, but the power of death that destroyed his flesh.
The wounds healed in an instant. The torn muscles recovered and the broken bones returned to their places. Yu-hyun drew out a fierce determination.
His head hurt like it was being squeezed. A light flashed in front of his eyes. It was not a conscious action of recognizing and swinging his weapon to avoid the attack, but a reflexive action close to instinct.
Future Vision. Probability Adjustment. Fantasy World. Absolute Body.
He mixed all these things together and faced the Pale Knight.
“Please stop… Even if I defeat him, my life…”
Kwon Jia cried. Even if she survived here, what awaited her was a predetermined doom. The earth might not face the end of the world. But she knew what would happen after that.
She remembered. The things she didn’t want to recall unfolded vividly in her mind.
After overcoming all the trials. The stars twinkling in the sky fell down with tails, the ‘real end of the world’.
No one could stop that.
“Shut up, I told you.”
Yu-hyun cut off Kwon Jia’s words. Of course, he knew too. How much she suffered. Seeing her reaction, there was no doubt that all the memories she had sealed had revived.
She must have remembered the things she wanted to forget. And now, the situation she tried to prevent by sealing her memories was happening in real time.
How many people died here? And how many people are fighting outside to survive?
It was not Kwon Jia’s fault. It was all Jin Cheongun-woon and Praytion’s doing. But even so, Kwon Jia couldn’t let go of her guilt. She was that kind of person. A person who was so kind that it was stupid.
That’s why he was angry.
What are you talking about, regressor? What are you talking about, being cold-hearted? You cry when you’re sad, and you empathize better than anyone with other people’s pain.
And you’re trying to kill yourself on your own. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
So show him.
The desperate resistance to break this annoying repetition. That this world is not over yet.
The Pale Knight reacted to Yu-hyun’s will that was close to a declaration.
He stopped running recklessly and took a stance. The Pale Knight of Death also realized that Yu-hyun had changed from before.
Yu-hyun glared at the Pale Knight. The one who drove him to death in his previous life. And more than that, the wall he thought he had to overcome.
He couldn’t save Kwon Jia if he didn’t defeat him.
“Summon Nautilus.” A huge submarine was created in the air. The submarine floated in the air and fired missiles at the Pale Knight.
The Pale Knight thrust his spear. The missiles exploded in the air before they reached him, and beyond that, Nautilus was pierced by the spear’s energy and split in half and disappeared.
‘There’s no time to buy.’
Then he would surpass him.
He didn’t think he lacked power with this strength. What he lacked was will. Beyond saying he would do it, he embraced the conviction that he would burn death.
He threw away his distractions. He compressed his thoughts into one thing, focusing on defeating the enemy in front of him.
Revenge. Ambition to overcome the wall. A sense of mission to save Kwon Jia.
He gathered all these things into one and poured them in.
Was it enough? He didn’t know. But he didn’t feel it was enough. More than anything, the Pale Knight wasn’t still either.
He thrust his spear. The curse of death filled with death. A blow that made him feel all kinds of pain and reach death when stabbed.
Yu-hyun widened his eyes and looked at it coming closer.
He couldn’t focus on evasion and defense forever. A mediocre attack couldn’t inflict fatal damage on the Pale Knight. And, it was the same for the Pale Knight too.
He had to apply a power beyond the limit to defeat him. Just like Choi Do-yoon did when he defeated him in his previous life.
At that time, he threw his body to create a gap, but this time he couldn’t hope for that. In his previous life, Choi Do-yoon was there, but this time he was alone.
‘He endured with his body.’
What he could believe in was Darwin’s power, the ultimate life.
There was nowhere else to rely on. Of course, he wasn’t sure. He couldn’t see the future properly in this world, and if he took that attack properly, he might die regardless of his ultimate vitality or anything.
The life that doesn’t die and the death that kills everything.
Would the spear pierce or the shield hold?
Yu-hyun clenched his teeth and braced himself for the impending pain.
Bang!
A flash of light struck the Pale Knight along with a loud sound in his ears. The Pale Knight quickly spun his body and deflected the bullet that was flying towards him.
Yu-hyun’s eyes followed the bullet’s trajectory.
“Young-min?”
“Hyung! Now’s the time!”
Yoo Young-min, covered in wounds, gasped for breath as he aimed his pistol at the Pale Knight.
Yu-hyun shouted urgently.
“No! Get back!”
The Pale Knight’s gaze turned to Yoo Young-min. He didn’t react to most attacks, but he seemed to hate being interrupted at a critical moment. His momentum increased even more.
It was dangerous. Yoo Young-min might have defeated other Knights of the Apocalypse, but the Pale Knight of Death was on a different level.
Death itself was inescapable. It was not a concept that could be avoided or blocked. Even Yoo Young-min would die if he grazed it.
“It’s okay. Hyung.”
Yoo Young-min smiled faintly as he met the Pale Knight’s glare.
As the Pale Knight charged at Yoo Young-min, a thunderous noise erupted above his head. Rumble. A blue flash flickered along with a sound like a giant beast roaring.
As the Pale Knight looked up, a dazzling light fell on his forehead.
Clang! The Pale Knight’s scythe split the lightning in half. His eyes soon pierced through the hole in the ceiling of the ruins. There, he saw Kang Hye-rim, her hair dyed silver-blue, waving in the wind.
“Hye-rim?”
Yu-hyun didn’t ask why. The opportunity was now. He had to gather all his strength at this moment when the Pale Knight was distracted.
The Pale Knight glared alternately at Kang Hye-rim and Yoo Young-min. He was assessing the situation. He felt their attacks as he parried them. They were not worth his attention. Besides, their condition was not very good.
They had barely squeezed out their attacks after fighting and getting injured by other Knights. There was no way they could touch him.
The Pale Knight’s gaze returned to Yu-hyun. The important one was this man who had changed his stance.
But.
“Tsk. You shouldn’t do that.”
Black energy surged and surrounded the Pale Knight. Seo Sumin, who had arrived on Darwin, squeezed out her remaining power and attacked the Pale Knight.
The fourth technique of Seven Evil Black Sky Divine Skill.
Gathering Evil Thunderclap (聚惡轟雷).
Boom! The black energy turned into lightning and hit the Pale Knight’s body. The Pale Knight scattered his death aura and imbued ‘death’ into the lightning. As soon as the lightning dissipated, Seo Sumin gritted her teeth and launched her next attack.
The variation of the fourth technique of Seven Evil Black Sky Divine Skill, Chaotic Disintegration Lightning (紊散滅雷).
She didn’t stop there. She retrieved some of her energy and compressed it to the limit in front of her nose. Even though she reduced its size as much as possible, it was still almost 2m in diameter. Inside the sphere, a huge storm-like power raged. Then it turned into a bullet and shot at the Pale Knight.
The variation of Eight Feet Jade Light (八尺煉玉光).
The infernal sphere flew and hit the Pale Knight. Kang Hye-rim and Yoo Young-min were not idle either. Seo Sumin was using all her strength to attack the Pale Knight right now. She knew it was to buy time for Yu-hyun.
Kang Hye-rim scattered countless lightning bolts and Yoo Young-min aimed at the Pale Knight’s joints and fired his gun.
The Pale Knight flinched for the first time under the combined attack of three people.
“Now! Hurry!”
Seo Sumin stretched out both arms. She was glad that she didn’t use much of her power against the Black Knight of Famine. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to stop this lump of death properly here.
She wrung out all her remaining power and black mist spewed out around her.
The fifth technique of Seven Evil Black Sky Divine Skill.
Ghostly Mist Destruction (幽霞滅劫).
The black mist swallowed up the surrounding space. It didn’t stop there and disintegrated everything inside it. The Pale Knight resisted the force that tried to devour him. Fear and despair, death and curse eroded the space.
Squeak! All the pressure that was applied to the Pale Knight was torn apart.
The Thunder Sword imbued with willpower and Seven Demon Black Sky Divine Skill too. The Devil Spear that squeezed out all the remaining power too.
They didn’t reach the Pale Knight.
“Thank you.”
But that was enough. Thanks to the three people who bought him time, Yu-hyun was able to finish his preparation.
Yu-hyun ran towards the Pale Knight who blocked his way. In his hand was Baekryeon, transformed into a harpoon.
He put all his strength and will into one place and pierced through it.
The Pale Knight crossed his weapons to defend himself. It didn’t matter. It was a strike that took that into account.
The tip of the white harpoon pierced through the Pale Knight’s spear and scythe.
Crack!
The spear shattered the sword and the scythe as soon as it touched the white lotus. The harpoon kept pushing forward and pierced through the chest of the Pale Knight.
The death aura that surrounded the Pale Knight vanished in an instant.
A huge hole was torn in the body of the Pale Knight, and his blue eyes lost their power and dimmed.
A strike that transcended death. The Pale Knight fell, but Yu-hyun did not stop. He ran up the endless stairs of the altar with his momentum. In the distance, he saw Kwon Jia’s eyes widen in disbelief as she looked at him.
Swoosh!
The inside of the ruin writhed and stretched out countless tentacles to target Yu-hyun. The mother that occupied the ruin, and even the entire nightmare world, tried to stop him.
The altar shook and a giant hand sprang out to grab Yu-hyun. In the air, numerous tentacles aimed at him. The air he breathed was filled with poison, and the surrounding atmosphere became tens of times heavier.
Yu-hyun did not stop.
“Get out of my wayyyy!!!”
His will that pierced through death continued to advance. Yu-hyun ignored the oppression of the nightmare world and reached right in front of Kwon Jia.
“Yu-hyun…!”
“I came to save you, Miss Jia.”
Yu-hyun smiled and swung his harpoon. The throne where Kwon Jia was sitting was destroyed.
Screaaaam!!! The world screamed. The nightmare that Kwon Jia had built up throughout her life, knelt before a single person.
“What, what is this! What’s going on!”
“The phantasms are disappearing!”
The collectors who were fighting against the phantasms were startled by the scream of the world, and then shocked by the sight of the phantasms disappearing while splashing blood.
It was not only the phantasms. The bizarre structures that created the nightmare world collapsed, and the dome that had been expanding its erosion stopped.
The nightmare world came to an end.
“Who is it?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the center of the distant nightmare world.
“Haa.”
Yu-hyun breathed deeply and smiled. He was about to ask Kwon Jia how she was, but
Twist.
His body bent forward as he could not endure the excessive force.
“Ah.”
He wanted to say something, but his body did not listen. At that moment, Kwon Jia caught Yu-hyun as he was about to fall. She hugged his head in her arms as if by accident.
“Haha. I wanted to say something cool at the end, but I failed.”
“…You idiot.”
“Miss Jia, are you crying now?”
“W-who’s crying! I’m just, just happy.”
Kwon Jia tightened her arms around Yu-hyun. She did not want to show him her pathetic face like this.
“So, how is it? Miss Jia. I did it, right?”
“…Yes. I admit it. You really showed me something amazing.”
“I’m really exhausted too. I thought I had become much stronger, but I was so drained. I still have a long way to go.”
He said that, but Yu-hyun looked very relieved.
He had received some help, but he had overcome the Pale Knight of death. He had defeated someone he could not even touch in the past. That was enough for him now.
As his strength slowly returned to his body, Yu-hyun got up.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes. I recover quickly. But Miss Jia.”
“What, what is it?”
“Your eyes are red. And your nose too.”
“…!”
Kwon Jia gasped and wiped her eyes with her sleeve, then glared at Yu-hyun. Yu-hyun laughed playfully at her unusual reaction.
Kang Hye Rim, Seo Sumin, and Yoo Young-min approached them. Each demon supported them by their side.
Seeing them, Kwon Jia felt a surge of emotion in her heart.
She was grateful. For coming to save her like this, for not giving up on her. But more than that, Kwon Jia had something to tell Yu-hyun.
The truth she knew. The reason why this world existed.
