Chapter 227 – Siwoo Lee (2)
The world has split.
It was as if there was such an illusion.
‘No, this.’
Yoon Chae-rin was embarrassed but stepped forward. Pooh-! Belatedly, I saw the Demon Beast King collapsing, spurting blood in a straight line from her chest to her groin. But he isn’t dead yet.
No, more precisely, dying. If I could properly feed the demon king one more shot like this.
Everyone seemed to realize that, and their complexion changed.
“Attack! Airball!”
Countless heroes rushed at the Demon Beast King. However, Yoon Seung-ha, Yoon Chae-rin, and Nam Dayoon, the three of them quickly ran to Lee Si-woo.
“Yo, the warrior’s complexion is pale!”
“Wait, wait! He’s vomiting blood right now! Hey Seungha Yoon! Hurry up and give me that marble!”
The baptism of divine power was already pouring down on Lee Si-woo. However, Lee Si-woo’s physical condition did not improve.
“How how…”
Even though Eris gave her holy power, her physical condition was in serious condition. Rather than infusing her holy power to restore Lee Si-woo, it meant that her wounds were deep due to the recoil of her ability.
“Hey, look at this.”
Yoon Seung-ha passed the marble to Lee Si-woo. If it’s this item that restores everything, it’ll be useful nonetheless.
Yoon Seung-ha believed that.
Ugh!
I heard a vibrating sound somewhere. From the side of Siwoo Lee’s head.
Yoon Chae-rin turned her head.
“The crown…”
Yoon Seung-ha reflexively turned her head to Chae-rin’s dumb words. The crown worn on Lee Si-woo’s head.
It was enveloped in an ominous black air current.
At the same time, there was a change in Lee Si-woo’s body.
As if something had happened just before, the body that was collapsing began to turn back as if time was turned back.
With a healthy body.
A transfer has occurred.
***
Badly badly.
There was the sound of something chewing and swallowing the giraffe’s flesh.
Badly.
Every time something black swallowed a giraffe, I felt something subtly growing inside me.
‘What.’
It was very strange. The kind of growth rate that can only be barely understood by examining my body with the number of days.
“That doesn’t look nice.”
A familiar voice was heard from somewhere.
When I turned my head, I saw ‘I’ with a languid expression standing with the mask slanted.
“Is this your first time seeing something like this?”
“Who are you?”
“Mask.”
The mask smiled mischievously.
“You look like you have a lot of questions. Why did you fall into this world-.”
“Can you tell me?”
“No, there is not. I am not allowed to give that answer.”
The mask giggled and laughed.
“I’d like to have a chat, but I don’t have much time.”
The mask stared into space and said.
“Soon you will wake up from your dream. Is there anything you want to ask?”
“… I want to ask about demons and those who dream of eternity.”
“Are those two? You know.”
The mask said with a grin.
“Yoon Chae-rin and Yoon Seung-ha. That those two have something to do with them.”
“The one who dreams of eternity with an invincible Demon God…?”
At my words, the mask looked at me with a blank expression.
Mask laughed at my words.
“Looks like you can’t answer that either.”
“Um, right. I know a lot, but I don’t have many kinds of answers.”
“Then tell me about the cloth mask.”
“The cloth mask is simple. It is the power to copy the talent of the person you are related to with a mask. And dead beings.”
Mask slowly walked towards the giraffe. I put my hand on the screaming giraffe’s neck.
Denggung.
Then, I don’t know how, but the giraffe’s head was cut off. Then, the mask was modeled after the face of a giraffe created from her hand and put it on the giraffe.
“You can absorb and use the spirits of dead beings like this. If you put on the giraffe’s mask, you’ll know. Now that you’ve captured the demon of the mask, you’ll hear your thoughts, so don’t worry about it.”
“Thoughts?”
“You must have heard it while making the mask when you were in high rank? Well, it’s not that important, so let’s skip this.”
And he said as if he remembered that he forgot his mask.
“Oh. And the giraffe mask should be able to use it properly now. Or, you can use it as your ‘subordinate’.”
“…”
“You look like you guessed it. Not fun.”
“I want to ask about the regressor.”
“Regressor? Ah, it looks like you want to ask about the Collector.”
The mask rarely had a serious expression.
“Collector. I don’t know the details of that either. However, I only know that the collector in this world is a very small piece that the original owner had.”
“Piece?”
“Yes. If he was really a Collector, the demon lord wouldn’t be a problem. They are one of the few beings in the entire universe who can stand against the demons and those who dream of eternity.”
I calmly looked at the mask. The mask was overly favorable. It was strange that he answered my questions one by one.
“Why are you looking favorably? It has to be. As you grow, I regain my strength.”
“Regain your powers?”
“It is such a condition. As an apostle of masks, I am a body that was once abandoned by chaos. But chaos takes good care of you. The stronger you become, the stronger I…”
The mask muttered something. But didn’t hear I couldn’t tell from the shape of my mouth. I can see the words, but the knowledge reading is also messed up.
“Is this still not working?”
The mask said sadly.
“There is one more thing I want to ask you.”
“What?”
“Who are you?”
The mask’s eyes curved into half moons. As if he was waiting for that answer.
“I am a mask. An advance guard to spread chaos while avoiding the eyes of the unmatchable Demon God who ordered an apostle from chaos and the one who dreams of eternity.”
“Advance guard point?”
“Yes. Although it has long been almost abandoned now.”
I could feel the mask shaking a little.
I looked at the giraffe’s carcass. I watched the mask eat the giraffe.
The mask is too suspicious.
Every time I ask a question, I try to answer everything.
‘Are they trying to eat me?’
There is a possibility. They say masks eat the anima of the dead.
“Any last questions? Now the time is up.”
“Is there any harm to me among the thousand hands, knowledge reading, and thousand masks?”
“Your intuition is sharp.”
The mask smirked. Unpleasantly.
“There is no need to worry about reading knowledge. Because it puts a little strain on your body. Although the cloth mask might be a little uncomfortable. Oh, don’t use Heavenly Life too often.”
“Why?”
“He loves you so much.”
For the first time, the mask spoke expressionlessly. In a voice full of fear.
“Don’t be offended just because you like it. Because their likes are not good for us. To be loved by a divine being brings more tragedy than you think.”
“Right.”
The attention of the mask did not feel warm for some reason.
Cheonsu is also dangerous, but it seemed as if he wanted to do something before that.
Whoops!
At that moment, a black crown floated over his head. It was unexpected, but it felt like the black crown was singing. While whining. As if waiting for the present, happily.
“It’s about time.”
“Time?”
“Yes… The time allowed for me is over.”
After saying that, the mask disappeared. Literally gone.
Leaving behind only the mask.
‘What.’
I took a step forward to pick up the mask.
Then, countless scenes passed through my mind.
Scenes passed by as if turning a film in a movie.
I saw myself enjoying a date with Yoon Seung-ha.
I saw myself making a promise to forever with Yoon Chae-rin.
I saw myself wearing a butler’s uniform and making a sullen expression next to the Dragon King and Hamer.
There was a scene where Kim Eun-jung seemed to propose to me with a bouquet of flowers.
Many scenes were skipped.
They always had one thing in common. That I was with one woman and didn’t see other women.
‘Perhaps Lee Si-woo from the parallel world was pure love.’
My head got complicated.
Although hypnosis led me to have promiscuous relationships with women, the fundamental reason was that I could imitate their abilities, so I prayed.
‘Isn’t there a cloth mask?’
If so, it may be that there was no access to knowledge or a thousand lives.
Blah blah blah blah.
There was a sound like an egg breaking somewhere. It was the crown side.
‘Finally…’
It was a precursor to awakening.
My head was complicated, but I thought simple. Let’s enjoy now.
***
I opened my eyes. I saw a familiar ceiling. Wooden ceiling. And the mana of life that enters the body.
‘Isn’t it inside the World Tree?’
There is no presence felt in the room. However, there were quite a few people outside the door. It’s probably fairies to escort me.
I took out my cell phone by the drawer.
‘The date hasn’t passed much.’
Two days have passed since the fight with the Demon Beast King. I quickly opened the news section. It was because he was curious about whether the Three Kings were still alive and whether the arrogant dragon had been stopped.
[Subdue the Demon King! However, the unknown existence that appeared in the middle could not be defeated…]
[American hero The One, Korea has a future for mankind. Even three people. Praised.]
[Who is Lee Si-woo, who is noticed by America’s highest ranked hero, The One, China’s highest ranked hero, Heavenly Sword, courted, and Japan’s highest ranked hero, Geomseong, is terrified?]
“… It’s bothering me.”
And I feel like I’ve become a famous person all over the world.
