"here is?"

Park Hyunsoo looked around.

He was obviously in his brother's room, but when he woke up, he was standing in a strange space.

“Come on.”

Then, for the first time, I heard a voice from behind.

When I turned around, there was a spirit body burning like a blue flame with her arms folded.

"You?"

“Mareda.”

“Is that your real face?”

"Yes."

His appearance, without a physical body, seemed quite sacred, whether it was a god or not.

In fact, just being nearby seemed to bring warmth and peace of mind.

Of course, he didn't do that.

Because he seemed to be somewhat disrespectful to the opponent.

“What about you, Master?”

“For convenience, I have the same experience as you in another space.”

“Harley?”

Park Hyunsoo raised his right hand and lifted his middle finger.

He was also swearing from his point of view, but Mare didn't know what he meant by making a stop, so he didn't react much differently.

“I let him sleep for a while.”

“Who do you want?”

“That would be better. Because you're the only one I can take care of. The act of going back to the old past is gnawed at the mind.”

“You mean going back in time?”

“There is a saying on Earth. One hundred and fifty words are unheard of. I decided it was faster to see it than to explain it with my mouth.”

I didn't quite understand Mare's words.

What is it to see in person? … .

Park Hyunsoo's eyes widened.

The pupil enlarged, and countless universes poured into it.

“Go.”

Mare gently rolled her open hand and clasped it.

Park Hyunsoo's consciousness picked up.

* * *

“Neman! The fourth line of defense has collapsed!”

“All portals in the sky have been opened!”

“Currently, an extinction-class monster appears in Area D! Someone has to go from our side!”

“Karakk! Where's Karak?!"

People in military uniforms busily roamed around, reporting, giving orders, and taking action.

Papers were scattered in the air, and the communication receiver was rolling on the floor without being properly hung.

On the huge screen that covered the entire wall, a red light came on every moment, and numerous radars displayed monsters that appeared all over the map.

Everyone ran and ran without a break.

cried and cried again.

In order to delay the destruction of the world even a little, they were so busy that the word ‘everyone’ was not enough.

However, only one man was sitting in the center and meditating with his cross-legged position.

Surprisingly, no one around him complained to him.

Avoiding men as if for granted, he sometimes approached the man with his eyes closed and reported what had happened.

It was still the same today.

“Neman! Knight's army is trying to break through the 5th line of defense! I think I need to turn back time!”

An executive made a brief request to a man named Neman and disappeared quickly.

And like a lie, the countless red dots on the map of the 5th line of defense displayed on the screen started to be pushed back to the 4th line of defense as if going backwards.

On the other hand, the blue dots marked with allies increased again.

It wasn't like a simple programmatic simulation.

What actually happened on the battlefield was being reflected on the map in real time.

But no one reacted to such a miraculous situation.

Exactly, I couldn't afford it.

"Damn it! It's a bishop in the sky! All the resident troops must sortie!”

“Filona’s troops have departed there!”

“Area D?”

“Currently, Karak is engaged in a battle with an extinction-class monster!”

"crazy."

Two syllables of abusive language penetrated into such an urgent conversation.

Park Hyunsoo swears involuntarily when he sees the soldiers walking around to the point where it is difficult to even describe them as ‘busy’.

They even pierced through their bodies to make sure they couldn't see them.“What the hell is this?”

When I woke up, it was a strange place than before.

The screen surrounding the wall was intuitive enough to see the state of the battlefield at a glance, and the computers placed in front of it were designed to be seen only in the near future.

In particular, the three-dimensional manipulator seen as a keyboard was a hologram.

“What are you doing here?”

Where the hell did Marais send herself?

Going back to the past, this was the future, not the past.

Rather, some familiar words were heard in the words of the soldiers.

“I said knight and bishop, obviously.”

It was Knight's army that reached the 5th line of defense, and the one who appeared in the sky was the Bishop.

Could she be referring to the knight and bishop she knew?

Perhaps it is under the circumstances.

“How is it going?”

Park Hyunsoo looked around and walked towards the man who had been called 'Neman' before.

The blonde hair that had grown to his neck was soaked in sweat and full of fat.

A little while ago, a soldier asked him to turn back time.

And on the map, it actually happened.

As far as Park Hyunsoo knows, there was only one person who could do this.

‘Mr. Robben.’

If it was Robben Odman, the head of the artillery and the leader of the present human race, he would be able to do the same thing as this man.

But he died at the hands of the King.

The exact circumstances were not detailed when he heard that his brother had woken up, but for mankind, it was news that was close to despair.

“He is the former master of Robben Odman’s powers.”

“Wow!”

Park Hyunsoo was startled by the sudden sound of a voice from behind and knelt forward.

"you?!"

“You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

“If you were coming with me, I would have said something!”

Mare shrugged her shoulders as if what was the problem.

Park Hyunsoo got up, shaking his clothes in embarrassment.

“Did you stop it?”

Busy soldiers and fast-moving screens stopped all at once.

“For easy explanation.”

“It’s a pretty useful skill. Rather, what did you just say?”

“His name is Neman. The former master of Robben Odman's powers."

“Is the former owner the same person?”

“It is not a reincarnation. To put it simply, it can be said that the Earthlings inherited the abilities of the Arisians.”

“That means… … All the Awoken except Mr. Robben.”

Mare nodded her head.

Park Hyunsoo didn't ask why it happened.

It was because he seemed to understand without even listening to the explanation.

“You don’t ask why.”

"Because the King's forces are targeting Earth."

“Half right, half wrong.”

"what?"

Is there any other reason besides that?

Mare leaned back and looked at the soldiers with desperate expressions one by one.

“They all struggled to survive.”

As if a video was played when he flicked his finger, those who had stopped started moving again.

However, nothing was heard as if the sound had been muted.

“It was a desperate situation. The King's army did not have the same restrictions as on Earth, so they ravaged the Arisinians in perfect condition. I am the god of Aris, but I couldn't help them. It was impossible.”

Mare stopped in front of Neman.

"why?"

“It will come out later. Rather, it was Neman who appeared when Aris fell into despair.”

His expression was constant, but in Park Hyunsoo's eyes, he looked a bit sad.

“Arisins are gifted with special powers. There were countless kinds, and because of their power, it was a nation that was almost impossible to unify.”

Strong forces cause conflict everywhere.

Arisin was the same.

Rather, they flaunted each other's strength and caused numerous wars.

In the past, Mare thought they could never become one.

Even with strong power, he was overwhelmingly pushed by the King's army for a big reason.

“But Neman united them.”

Mare snapped her fingers.

The background was blurred and moved to a new place.

Eleven people were gathered there, and Neman sat at the top of the table.

“The eleven Arisians who led the greatest power. Neman was the first to create a field of unity to oppose the King's forces."

“Just by looking at it, that guy is Haksen.”

Park Hyunsoo pointed to a ferocious looking man with rough black hair that fell to the floor.

“You are right. His name is Karak. He's a bastard who claims that the logic of power is the best. However, it is also true that he is the most specialized in battle among the eleven kings.”

“How come he has the same personality?”

“The woman with red hair sitting over there is Yurak Ha. Her name in Aris is Maron. You could call it a dragon.”

Park Hyunsoo's eyes widened at the word 'dragon'.

Somehow, the appearance of her seen in the Paradise Fragments looked like a dragon taking the form of a human.

At that time, I was just thinking, but I was surprised to find out that the source of my power was a real dragon.

“At first, it was difficult to integrate. No matter how many enemies they have in common, the eleven people here have been enemies to each other for a long time.”

“Yesterday’s enemy is not today’s ally.”

“It’s as you say. But Neman somehow united them. The person who helped me the most in the process was that man, Paul.”

Where Mare was pointing, there was a man with a smirk and a beard.

With his curly hair and a brown explorer's hat, he looked quite laid back.

“He is the commander-in-chief, Choi Sang-ho, who led the S-class hunters on Earth in the name of the task force.”

A hero who lost his life to protect mankind during the portal impact, and the eternal leader of all S-class hunters.

Park Hyunsoo didn't know him well, but Ha Yoo-Rak still respected him.

“With Paul's help, Neman succeeded in unifying the Arisians for the first time. And I started a counterattack against the King's forces in earnest.”

Again the background changed.

It was a burning battlefield.

Numerous abilities and monsters that looked several times more numerous were entangled and slaughtering.

Among them, Karak went mad and caught his eye.

“It wasn't bad at first. Even though the army officers were powerful, Aris's united army was no less than theirs. Above all, the power of the eleven kings was immense, as you know.”

The screen changed again.

“But for a moment, the Queen moved.”

"queen?"

Park Hyunsoo had never met, but I expected that if the ranks were divided like chess pieces, there would also be a 'Queen'.

"She was strong enough to break everyone's common sense."

“How much was it?”

“Look there now.”

A black-haired woman fluttered her long hair and stirred Aris-kun.

No special power was used.

It overwhelms a huge number of troops only by hand-to-hand combat.

The scene was phenomenal and Park Hyunsoo couldn't keep his mouth shut.

‘It loses.’

For a brief moment, Park Hyunsoo ran his battle simulation with a woman roaming his battlefield.

If you fight 10 times, you lose 10 times.

Even with all his might, he was at a level where he was afraid to touch the tip of his hair.

“Does it look great to you?”

“… … Karak.”

Then Karak ran towards her.

His body turned to liquid, and a huge water bomb engulfed Quinn.

At the same time, Karak's body split in two.

Threads burst from Park Hyunsoo's enlarged eyes.

‘That Haksen… … !’

Although it wasn't Haxen who was there, Haxen was a human who succeeded Karak's power.

Park Hyunsoo had experienced his power himself, so he could see how strong he was.

The background changes.

This time it was a giant black man.

Although his body was like a diamond, it vanished in vain by the fist of the Queen.

“Kizar. He is the former master of the power of Mod Alexander.”

Even the American mod Alexander was finished in just one shot.

“Again, the situation has turned desperate. Victory and defeat were repeated for Knight’s army and Bishop’s dead, but there was only one-sided defeat due to Queen.”

Again the background changed.

It was like a dark temple, where Neman sat alone.

His mourning was much more exhausted than the first.

“The destruction of Aris approached with a countdown. He came to me right before destruction.”

"you?"

“He’s coming.”

Seeing where Mare was pointing, she was approaching Marega Neman, who was burning louder than she is now.

“How did you become so dwarfed?”

“You know when you see it.”

When he snapped his fingers, the sound that had disappeared returned.“Are you the god of Aris?”

"Yes."

“Why are you standing still when you become Aris like this?”

The exhausted Neman blatantly criticized the planet's master.

“Aren't you a transcendent being? Wouldn't it have been like this if you had gone out?"

"Yes."

“But why not!”

Neman shouted with her face stricken with her evil.

“Why have you forsaken us! Even if you helped us a little, a little!”

“I couldn’t.”

"what?"

"A transcendent being is watching behind them."

“… … What do you mean?”

“He restrained me. I wanted to help, but I couldn’t.”

“Then we… … .”

“Destruction is inevitable.”

At Mare's cold words, Neman had no choice but to collapse.

She was the one who somehow found the existence of God and reached this place.

She thought that it was the last line of friendship that could be saved.

However, the cord could not pull them.

“I just wanted to live, but is it that difficult?”

Neman burst into tears.

After crying to the point of fainting several times, he raised his head with a poisoned face.

“I cannot forgive the King. I cannot forgive his army.”

Neman, who stood in front of Mare, clutching the dirt floor, asked him for confirmation with a voice full of anger.

“Is there any way to guide Aris’s Yuji to people on other planets?”

“You know the answer.”

Neman has already confirmed the future.

He just wanted to be reconfirmed by God.

“Then please do so.”

“Are you serious?”

“Anytime is fine. If we don't, those who succeed us will stop the King. If not for them, others will take over our estate.”

“… … .”

“Aris may never be freed from suffering forever.”

Neman laughed bitterly at Mare's warning.

“If we can put a knife in their hearts, our pain may be forever!”

Whiteout occurs and all backgrounds are dyed pure white.

Park Hyunsoo saw Mare still holding back.

“Then what am I, Master?”

Earth took over Aris's upkeep.

I understood that.

If so, what does he mean?

Previously.

“What is a singularity?”

“What is the singularity?”

Mare said looking up at the empty sky.

“It’s a variable.”

"variable?"

“A power that Aris did not have, even the King did not know!”

Aris has already lost to King once.

Earthlings took over the maintenance, but unlike Earthlings, King's army knew all the forms of its abilities.

In this way, the victory itself will not be established.

“Why did I become so dwarfed? It was the price to create you.”

“… … .”

“I traveled through many dimensions. To find your teacher, Chungyeong, to give Isaac a sword! Lastly... … !”

Mare was about to speak, but she bit her mouth.

“He is not yet finished. But soon it will appear before you.”

“I’m not curious about that. Then let me ask you one last question.”

"Anything."

“Is that prophecy true?”

He didn't tell me what kind of prophecy it was.

Mare would definitely know.

Mare replied.

“It is a wish.”
