Chapter 270 – Chapter 12 – Invasion
“Ah. I feel relieved. I’ve had a hard time trying to keep up the acting that didn’t work. Well, it was fun to see the cute appearance of the warrior who accepted all those words without a doubt.”
“W-Why.? Why.?”
-Rattle
My hands started shaking like crazy, but I didn’t have time to stop it.
The shock of being betrayed by Erdel was that great
“Oh, no… Uh, how much of it was a lie? How could it be…”
Because most of the information I had now come from her or was related to her, it was difficult for her brain to function properly.
“Hmm… There are so many things that are faked that I’m confused as to what’s real, and what’s fake? Do you just think they’re all fake?”
“Well, then the Earth…”
“Aha. That?”
-Grin
“Of course it’s a lie. Is there any reason to send the hero who brought us all this way back to Earth?”
“Ah. Ah…”
-Sharp
“You?!”
My legs suddenly lost strength, and I was about to fall to the floor, but Yeo So-cheon barely caught me.
“Was the warrior too naive to begin with? In a situation where you don’t have any information about the other person. No matter what I say, you can’t determine whether it’s true or not. How can you be so naive and believe everything?”
“… What have you done?”
“Didn’t you do anything? Even though there was a lot of deception, the purpose of saving the hero and bringing him to our world is the truth without a single lie.”
“What on earth. For.”
“Hmm. To bring back the hero who stole half of my soul from the moment we first met and then ran away to the original world?”
“… There is no such thing as a truly crazy bitch.”
Even Yeo So-cheon seemed to be tired of it and forgot to use polite words.
“I thought there was another reason, but then you ate the god you worshiped and brought the world to that point just to find one man?”
“Ha, is it wrong to pick off the gods who were trying to escape to another world by scraping together the remaining resources because there was no chance of revival in the world they saved?”
“…”
“You should also remember that the gods are ultimately a selfish race that cares only about themselves and does not care about the creatures.”
-Woof.
I couldn’t even hear what the two were saying.
‘I can’t go to Earth.?’
He came all this way to return to Earth, but now he says it was a lie.
Then there are two options left.
I have to choose between the current world of Murim and Erdel.
‘But you said it was a lie.?’
Even the world of Erdel has fallen into a labyrinth as to what is happening now.
One thing we can expect is that the situation may be much worse than what Erdel said.
“But… You haven’t noticed yet?”
“… What kind of trick again.”
“The fact that the other person is showing their true colors like this means there is a good reason. For example, there is no need to act anymore.”
-Shock!
Yeo So-cheon noticed something and grabbed her sword and started to rush towards Erdel, but
“It’s late.”
-Boom!
At the same time as Erdel hit the floor with the spear he was holding
-Shaaaaa
Numerous gold coins lying around began to disperse into powder and disappear.
It was an effect of gold coins being exchanged for points, which I’ve seen a few times so far, but
“So, I didn’t touch it.?”
I didn’t even touch the gold coin.
“Actually, you don’t have to touch the hero.”
“Ah.”
-Quaang!
“Kyaaa?!”
Erdel confessed another lie, then swung his spear and struck down Yeo So-cheon who was running towards him.
-Paat
“Now then, the goddess of this world? This is truly my final proposal.”
It is not an unstable form made of white light
Erdel, taking the form of a complete human, spoke, shining from the radiance behind her.
“Will you hand over the hero obediently? Or will you take him with you after destroying this world? Would you like to choose?”
-Blink, blink
Meanwhile, from the store window unfolding in the corner of my vision

Similar view
-Kugugu goong!!!
“What does this mean?”
“Earthquake.?”
“The ground doesn’t shake?”
The moment when a crack appeared in the barrier between dimensions and a loud noise spread throughout the central plain, making people question it.
-Clatter
-Clatter
“Ugh.”
“… What is that…?”
Strange things began to happen simultaneously throughout the midfield.
Bones that appear from nowhere are alive and moving, or something that looks like a corpse whose flesh has rotted away is making strange noises and moving.
-Ihihihihi
“What, what? Why is there a strange sound in my ears?”
“The sound of a woman laughing…”
Hearing the voice of an unknown woman in a place where no one is around, etc.
Abnormal phenomena that could not be explained by Moorim’s common sense were occurring here and there.
And it was the same for the three people who warped space and followed Yeo So-cheon to the Demonic Cult.
-Kuuuuung!!!
“…Oh, my.”
“Whew. I’ve finally made it over. I wonder how long I was stuck between the barriers because of that strange woman who uses blue lightning.”
“Oh my. The kids in this world are pretty good too, aren’t they? The one with the fox ears is especially pretty. He must have the qualities of a banshee, right?”
“… It’s becoming a bother.”
-Suuuuu.
A pair of men and women blocked their path.
Even on the outside, unlike ordinary humans, their skin was rotten, and their bodies were blurry, which showed that they were monsters and not humans.
-Rumbling and rumbling
“Hey. Take care of your subordinates properly. You keep trying to possess my subordinates, right?”
“Please take a look. The kids had a hard time coming over too? They are soulless shells anyway.”
A lot of things spread out behind them
The piles of moving corpses and ghosts that filled the field with vision all the way to the horizon made it impossible for them to guarantee victory, no matter how confident they were in their skills.
Since there was already a precedent for vampires, there was no room to expect them to be in a favorable position towards this side.
“Where is Warstein? I can feel the energy around here.”
“Well, he came over a long time before us, so I guess he could have done it somehow?”
“You never know. Maybe it has already disappeared.”
“Eh. That’s a bit annoying. If she’s not there, I have to come up with a strategy.”
“There is no need for a strategy. All we have to do is push through with overwhelming volume.”
In the past, the forces of those who did not die were divided into three types.
Among them, the 1st Corps is a force based on an overwhelming amount of zombies and skeletons.
The 2nd Corps was a force that collapsed the enemy’s power through mental attacks led by Banshee and Phantom.
The vampires of the 3rd Corps operated as a small elite group, and their activities were mainly focused on assassinating key figures in the enemy army or inducing internal divisions.
-Chaeak
“I’ll ask you in advance, but you don’t plan on going back like this, right?”
“… Of course.”
“Oh, of course!”
They had already almost reached the Demonic Cult, and if the situation here was like this, they could not even be sure of the safety of the person they were looking for.
There is no way to know what is happening in this world right now, but it would be ridiculous to vaguely think that he would be safe.
“Me and this guy from the Hwasan Sect will make a way, so the boy from Tangmun can go first.”
“… Are you okay?”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s okay or not.”
-Hwareuk.
“If you have to, it’s pointless to look at anything else.”
-Puuuh!!
At that moment, a huge pillar of fire began to rise from the place where the piles of corpses and the leaders were gathered.
-Papat!
At that time, when all three of them did their best to do their own work
-Chaeng!
“Where are you going, Master?”
“Soyeon?!”
The person who blocked Geomhu’s path was someone who shouldn’t be here.
“How are you here? What do you look like?”
“… Someone offered a deal.”
“What do you mean? Wasn’t it all over?”
Until yesterday, he was still in human form, but
Geomhwa’s current appearance was that of an absolute vampire.
Red eyes. Red sword. And red wings.
“I was just sleeping, like a caterpillar entering a cocoon for a moment to become a butterfly.”
-Chiring
She held up a splendid sword she had never seen before and aimed it at her teacher.
“Don’t look at me so sad. You’ve already suffered so much because of me, but you still can’t let go of your regrets.”
“I thought you would come to your senses by now.”
“You are saying something strange. What does coming to your senses have to do with being forgiven for your past sins?”
-Quad!
A sword flew from somewhere and stuck around Geomhwa.
“I met a girl. She looked like me, and she offered me a deal.”
“… Was this deal like driving another nail into the already worn-out heart of a teacher?”
“… I betrayed you once, so wouldn’t it be difficult to do it a second time?”
-Quad! Kwaduk!
Then, swords of unfamiliar shapes began to stick next to Geomhwa.
I’m not sure about the swords, but they were famous swords from another world, each with numerous magics or curses attached to them.
“What do I want? What should I do if I can’t have it? I just realized the answer.”
“… I won’t have any regrets about you anymore.”
“It’s what I hoped for.”
So on one side of the battlefield, numerous swords began to fly and clash.
And a place much further away than that.
There
-Gooooo…
“… Hoo.”

A skeleton with three skulls wearing a jet black crown and surrounded by a huge cloak
I was facing the Heavenly Demon with empty eyes.
