Chapter 136 – The Transcendent and the Possessed
My breathing is shaky. My vision blurs for a moment.
My mind is so dizzy that I wish this wasn’t real. Everything I’ve done was someone else’s arrangement.
And that too in a bad way. Wait, then what about my body?
“My body…”
“Don’t worry. Your body is mine
I will use it well.”
Has your body been taken away? I burst out laughing.
As if to tackle my thoughts, Grant denied it.
“I need to get this straight. That body originally belonged to Rash Lionhardt. The ownership has simply been transferred to you, the possessor.”
“But a lot of what I did with that body was done of my own will!”
“What does that mean? “After all, aren’t you Lassie who was licking the bottom of the earth?”
It is an undeniable fact. The same goes for most web novel protagonists.
A guy who couldn’t do anything in real life.
That I have passed the threshold of death, that I have died once, that I have a reason for revenge, that I have to return to Earth, etc.
For various reasons, they eventually meet fate and become stronger.
But no matter whose arrangement this was, it was ultimately done out of my own will. I didn’t do it because someone told me to.
‘Come to your senses, Lasio.’
I gritted my teeth and slowly got up. Even getting up wasn’t easy.
Like a child just learning to walk, I barely managed to get up in a dark room with the only light coming from the monitor.
My legs were shaking, and my heart was pounding. Everything I thought was just a coincidence. It was planned by Grant right in front of me.
‘I was just playing there.’
Who would have guessed? It was so absurd that this situation felt unrealistic.
As if reading my thoughts, Grant looked at me with deep eyes.
“It’s a stark reality. It will be easy if you accept it.”
“What will change if I accept it?”
He pointed around.
“This is where you belong. It suits you well. Isn’t it?”
Something boiled in my chest.
I remembered the fun things I had when I came to Yasgard, and the things I overcame and grew despite the difficulties.
In addition, I also remembered the fact that there were many grateful people who had formed a relationship with me.
“What do you accept? Fuck!”
I deliberately wanted to be brave. That guy in front of me right now is a transcendent.
He’s a terrifying guy, and he’s the one who sent me to Yasgard.
If that guy even lifts his finger, I might be behind.
Still, I wanted to fight back. Grant asked with a stern face.
“Then are you going to deny this too? As if you denied your past yourself?”
“Do you deny my past?”
“I am a pro gamer trainee with no special interests, and my web novels are a series of failures. Didn’t you rush to enlist after this failure?”
I know everything. I know it well.
A bitter smile appeared. I nodded as if acknowledging it.
“That’s right, I did. That is an indisputable fact and an unchanging past.”
“Wow, that’s cool.”
I have to admit what I have to admit. But that also applies to the other person.
“I may have been who I was back then, but I’m not who I am now. Why? “Now are you going to deny me?”
“Well.”
“I hated everything in the world, and I just wanted to deny everything that had to do with me and everything I saw. Yes, that’s right.”
“I understand. Because a person who falls apart has no wings.”
Grant sympathizes with me as if it were his own business. But it looked so foreign.
I felt like he was the same as me. It just seemed like there was an underlying meaning of appeasement in his words and actions.
“But I don’t deny it anymore.”
“Don’t lie, Lasio.”
“Does this sound like a lie?”
I approached the guy. He accepted the guy’s mysterious gaze without blinking even once.
And then he stretched out his hand and grabbed the collar.
“Now I don’t deny anything. Even with my weak past, my past failures, and the fact that I’m still a pathetic bastard!”
“Why? What do you gain by admitting that? “Humans are barbaric beings!”
“
Proof
.”
Grant’s expression relaxed at my words. Grant soon whistles.
I took a moment to catch my breath. It was time to put into words what I had been thinking.
I might make mistakes, but I wanted to do it right for now. Because I’m serious.
“The weak me is also me, and they failed me is also me. These are the things I have to carry, and thanks to these
Me now
Because it’s there.”
“Isn’t it cool?”
“Cool? It’s natural. Since they can’t even do this, most of them are just trash on the internet. “I want to at least face myself.”
“Hmm, you just did your job well. I gathered all the Samsung water and finally allowed me to take over your body. “Your use ends with that.”
It was like an accent saying that you have done all you have to do and should now go back.
It would be nice to go back like this and get some rest. Unfortunately, this was not a workplace or part-time job.
I was rather curious.
If you were going to use chess pieces, there would actually be more people than me.
Even as Grant knows, I was a so-so guy in real life.
But why did they bother to use me? Why did you bother to use me?
“Why… Why is it me?”
“Hmm? Uhuhahahahaha!”
Grant laughed and eventually burst out laughing. It’s as if this question was expected and has become so routine.
That’s a shame. Bastard.
“Why are you laughing?”
“Why did you say it was you? That’s because you are the only one who often plays the game that set the trap!”
I was astonished by Grant’s answer. I couldn’t even speak.
It’s a well-made game, but no one recognizes it.
The Chronicles of Yasgard, which was thought to be just that.
Actually, this was a trap set by Grant. I was enjoying the game without even knowing it, and while I was posting comments, I got possessed.
“Ha…”
I lost strength. As he lowered his head, Grant’s excited voice pierced his eardrums.
“Don’t be so saggy. “It wasn’t my intention to get anyone caught.”
“Then?”
“Just you
The right person
It was. Why, isn’t it the same for web novels? A protagonist who does well from the start? Would those guys be interested in this other world or anything?”
“That’s right.”
“So, someone like you, who was at the bottom, was needed. A growing character who is faithful to her desires and can always reflect on herself!”
In the end, I was exactly the kind of person Grant wanted.
It didn’t matter who got caught.
What, it’s not some kind of lottery. So what if someone like Aveiro got caught?
‘It’s really ridiculous. Lasio, what is this?’
I nodded slowly. I tried to understand.
But there’s one thing I can’t figure out.
“Why on earth did you do this?”
“
Resurrection
.
”
Soon, Grant’s eyes turned gold. His previously mysterious gaze became more dignified.
That majesty began to weigh me down like an invisible rock.
I feel like I’m scared and want to keep my head down.
It was overwhelming majesty.
In the end, Grant smiled.
“You know I traveled, right?”
“Okay.”
Lord Grant traveled. He fought a fight that no one recognized in Yasgard, protected the world, and grew to become a transcendent Lord.
He eventually went into space to see a wider world than now.
And he travels through all kinds of multiverses.
As if reminiscing about the past, Grant smiled deeply.
“I had a lot of good memories from that trip. He met some good people. “I realized once again that humans are full of gratitude.”
“Then why did you cut off all connections with the multiverse even at the cost of losing your body?”
Grant was momentarily surprised by my question. The evidence is the round-eyed face.
“Have you figured it out that far? Well, it’s just a hint left for you to figure out.”
Grant nods.
Was that even his arrangement? This is absurd.
You really are like a god, right?
He shrugged his shoulders again.
“Originally, the multiverse was all open. “You didn’t know, right?”
It was something I half understood. Since it was open, he must have gone on a trip.
But it was open from the beginning? Then why can’t things like dimensional travel be achieved through science?
No, this is not important.
“You closed it again, right?”
“Originally, the realm of space and dimension is like that. It’s just that they are open to each other, but it is a huge area to interfere with.”
Grant picked up a worn baseball cap nearby. He playfully put on his hat before continuing.
“But for some reason it suddenly closed. I don’t know why.
Universal Artifact
“I can only guess that such a situation occurred because of the use of.”
What on earth happened? Is it caused by an outsourcing company?
Grant sighed and took off his hat. Surprisingly, they politely returned it to its original location.
“I longed for the multiverse and willingly wandered the entire universe. It was easy for me in my prime. I guess I could have become a transcendent person. In addition, it also had the unique abilities of that lineage.”
“It’s so sweet.”
“But, while traveling, I came across bad people and memories rather than good people and memories.”
Grant’s mood suddenly sank. Even his complexion darkened, as if a black fog had covered him.
Nevertheless, his eyes still glowed gold. Sharp as a blade.
“It was the same no matter which world I went to or which parallel world I went to.”
“Hey, that’s where people live…” .”
“Shut up and listen!”
Sir Grant suddenly becomes angry. He glared at me and continued.
“Is this the case everywhere people live? So does that mean it’s okay to destroy the entire universe with those humans in it?”
“What? Where can you find something like that?”
“I have always believed that humans are beings who deserve respect. Of all the living creatures in the entire universe, only humans were the first to create the concept of courtesy. I thought they were children blessed by God.”
Sir Grant says something quite interesting. But he soon shook his head.
“But I found out while traveling. My ideal world wasn’t there! No matter where you go, it is said that humans are the beginning of destruction. In any timeline or horizon. Wherever there is even one human being, trouble breaks out! Ha, you would know very well if it was a conflict between humans, right?”
Grant pointing at me. I was startled and scratched his head, as if I had been stabbed by a finger.
I know it well.
All kinds of Internet communication, the damage it causes, and even real-life wars.
Without going far, the devastation caused by Russia is indescribable, and we have also seen countless conflicts taking place in various places due to different beliefs and skin colors.
Because human history has been colored by war. Because that is human history.
Hehe, yes. I decided to get rid of it all. Why? You can’t leave trash lying around. Lasio, just like you!”
“… Is that so?”
“The trash that clutters the room deserves to be cleaned up. Same! Humanity spread throughout the universe deserves to disappear. They pretend to be intelligent beings, and they hate their own people more than anyone else and kill the most.”
“Ha… Hey, is that why you did this? To get rid of them all?”
Grant nodded his head. Only regret and hatred remained on his face.
“But my body was already very tired and sick. That’s why I needed a new body.”
“Wait a minute, so I… ?!”
I was shocked. This bastard, is that why you ate my body?
Grant standing crookedly and smiling.
“Don’t worry. I will use your body well. First, I will turn Yasgard into dust, and then I will trample the other worlds one by one!”
“You don’t deserve that.”
“No, you know. “I am the ancestor of all elves, and I am an elf who passed down technology to mankind!”
“Wait a minute, what the fuck… Hey!”
Tsutsutsu!
Sir Grant turned into pitch black smoke and disappeared. I frantically whipped around in the air where he was and ended up getting frustrated. What is this?
“Hey, Grant. Grant! “Fuck you!”
Even though I screamed with all my might, I just wandered around in the room in vain.
What Grant wants is for all humanity in the entire universe to be annihilated.
Sir Grant was an elf. He is said to have come from space, the ancestor of the elves.
As I pondered his story, I only felt helpless. I’m going to eliminate humanity from the entire universe.
‘What should I do?’
“Rash, you need to come to your senses!”
Suddenly, a voice was heard from beside me.
