Chapter 927 – Ruler of the Game
Seong-il clicks his tongue at the scale that goes beyond imagination. Meanwhile, the giant of light made with his own body as the core was overpowering the giant made of grotesque blood and flesh and tearing its limbs.
Meeeeek!!!
As if he were denying the final moment that was approaching him. The numerous mouths on every corner of the flesh giant’s body begin to emit bizarre screams as if struggling. However, regardless of whether he did it or not, the huge white-silver giant stretched out a hand made of powerful psionic energy and struck the final blow by tearing the creature’s limbs to shreds.
“… It’s over.”
『Game Master: Yes. It’s over. Still, it’s a blessing in disguise.』
The game master tells him that in return for descending the God of Mechanical Devices into the world, Seongil’s body will disappear like dust after the descent.
『Game Master: Originally, instead of taking revenge, you could have been caught in a twisted dimension and your soul would have been tortured forever… But since you escaped that situation and succeeded in taking revenge, it is half the victory.』
“… That’s right.”
The appearance of the ‘Apostle’ seen in the torn flesh giant. The silver giant reacts like crazy to such a guy and desperately tries to grab it. And even though he is in the midst of dying, the apostle has an expression full of despair and fear and struggles to avoid being grabbed by the giant.
“Ah! That’s right. When I saw that kid’s face, I remembered it. Why on earth did he look like me?”
『Game Master: That is…』
The moment the game master is about to answer. An incredible level of ‘will’ descends into Seongil’s mind. It was so powerful that even though Seong-il had a strong soul as a demigod, his soul was on the verge of completely melting for a moment.
!@^*@#!%()
As something so huge screams in his head, Seong-il eventually cannot bear the pain and begins to cry. Fortunately, the ‘will’ does not have any malicious intent towards Seong-il, so it quickly invests its strength and supports his failing soul.
『The answer… Is related to your ‘past life’.』
『Game Master: Whoa! Woah! Thank you for answering directly to praise Seongil. If you project such a strong force directly into his mind, he will die before he can even respond?』
『…』
Transcendent Intelligence remains silent to the Game Master’s words and does its best to restore Seong-il’s spirit. And through that process, Seong-il was able to naturally read the intention of transcendental intelligence.
‘I… Have no chance of survival? Transcendent Intelligence postponed the destruction of my soul for a while in order to repay me and tell me the truth.’
Although she had already roughly predicted her end through Q&A with the game master, when she actually felt her end directly, she felt bittersweet. Meanwhile, Seong-il’s surroundings, which had been a pure white world, suddenly transformed into another world.
『Game Master: Are you just asking me to continue telling you the story? He says he just changes the surroundings.』
“… Thank you so much.”
Seong-il responds in a strange tone to the consideration of transcendental intelligence. Meanwhile, a figure who appears to be himself from the Pocket Girls world appears before his eyes.
“Is this the game world I traveled to?”
『Game Master: No. That place is not a ‘game’. One of the ‘you’ of countless differentiated world lines.』
“…!!”
While Seong-il is shocked after hearing the game master’s shocking remarks. A shocking scene unfolds before his eyes. A black meteorite descended from the corrupted Isuin covers the world, and powerful psionic waves flowing from it begin to infect people.
『Game Master: In that era, you were a fairly famous psychic. He was a superpower who developed his superpowers most quickly and stably after the meteorite descended and rescued people.』
However, despite the desperate efforts of Seongil and the superpowers of that world line, the Earth of the Pocket Girls world was ultimately destroyed as they were unable to prevent the erupting disaster.
And the following video. Most of the worlds seen there have been destroyed due to disasters similar to Poke Girls, but because the world line is divided to near infinity, some worlds have succeeded in surviving in the face of a ‘moderate’ level of disaster.
‘Martial arts world…?’
And repeated stories. A black meteorite descended on the world of martial arts and people learning martial arts and martial arts based on the power derived from it. However, since the black meteorite was an evil being, not only good things did not necessarily happen.
Representative examples include evil monsters like blood gods that were born after being contaminated by corrupted power. And, inevitably, Seongil and several other characters in that world take on the appearance of warriors and begin to desperately fight against corruption in order to prevent that destruction.
“… Alchemy world this time?”
Surprisingly, Seong-il of the world of alchemy appears as an alchemist who is in a ‘lover’ relationship with Elaine, and struggles to prevent an unknown corruption spreading in the Shadow Islands.
“… What I thought was a game world is actually a world that has all been destroyed?”
『Game Master: Not everyone.』
The game master says that even if a meteorite descends on a place where there is an absolute being like Meow, there are times when the absolute person there directly intervenes to prevent destruction.
『Game Master: They say there is an Absolute, but… The Absolutes in that world could not move actively as they were subject to the law of causality. So in the end, the damage to mortals was great. It only prevented destruction.』
Seong-il, whose body is twice as large as the current Seong-il, is dressed in leather and wields a huge two-handed sword. He is an evil race born from the influence of a black meteorite. A war with the ‘descendants of the stars’.
In the farm world, where the ‘Dragon of Life’, who was originally born to protect the world, was corrupted by the power of a black meteorite and turned into the ‘Dragon of the Apocalypse’, Seong-il appears, struggling and leading refugees after the War of the Gods. The images of Han Seong-il continued even after that.
『Game Master: The Apostle and the Twisted One observed various differentiated worlds and discovered that some ‘humans’ were having a particularly large influence in the differentiated world.』
And the twisted one who understands the existence of several outstanding people, including Han Seong-il, comes up with a very brilliant idea. The idea is to use their state of awakening as a measure of invasion.
『Game Master: As for the Twisted One, several characters have always had a significant influence, big or small, even in a world that has become countlessly differentiated. I tried to figure out the ‘suitability’ of the world by measuring the ‘luck’ and ‘status’ of some people.』
“… What on earth do you mean?”
『Game Master: To put it simply, Han Seong-il looks at the degree of your ‘awakening’ and quickly determines whether there is a ‘suitable species’ there.』
“…!!”
Shocking explanation from the game master. He looked at the game master blankly because it was so absurd to hear that a few humans, including himself, had become the measuring stick for the invasion.
『Game Master: If you are a person with ‘slightly’ awakened abilities, 99.9% of the world can be said to be a world of ‘suitable species’.』
Since Han Seong-il used to appear as the fastest awakened person in each world line, if he could quickly identify his condition, the Transcendental Church could determine whether he was a suitable species without investing a lot of time.
『Game Master: Since our tracking was sharp and dangerous, we had no choice but to use that shortcut, and it surprisingly worked well. Because it actually gave us time to quickly escape from our pursuit. So at first, we were taken aback by their astute behavior.』
Of course, quickly escaping based on Seongil’s qualities did not give a 100% accurate result, but since it was one of the best ways to quickly escape from the pursuit of transcendental intelligence and discern the possibilities of the world, the Transcendental Church used the ‘discrimination method’. I started using ‘the most.
『Game Master: The Transcendental Intelligence, which did not know the method at first, misjudged the movements of the Transcendental Church, which were more agile than expected, as just a ‘rapid flight’. It was quite efficient.』
“But in the first place, is the act of taking a human body called ‘detachment’ really effective?”
『Game Master: Yes. It’s absurd, but it really happened.』
Since the logic of the command itself was focused on eliminating the ‘corrupted Ys people,’ it is said that if the Ys people gave up their bodies and were reborn as a new species, the transcendent intelligence would no longer pursue them.
“Then wouldn’t it be okay to just steal any body?”
『Game Master: That’s difficult. Because the ‘twisted one’ would never have allowed that.』
“… Why?”
『Game Master: It’s simple. The Twisted One is a being that exists by feeding on the thoughts and psionics of corrupted Ys. However, if the corrupted Ys steals the body of a new race and loses its psionic ability or its ability is extremely weakened, where will the damage be?』
“Ah…”
It was only after listening to the game master’s explanation that Seong-il was able to understand their suspicious actions.
