Episode 257: A plan of hundreds of years
I was at a loss for words.
Are you really trying to become a god?
Yukiel looked at Etelius’ outstretched hand.
‘You’re laughing, you crazy guy…’ … .’
Become one?
The soul is one, but the selves are two.
Becoming one does not mean that two selves are properly mixed.
It means that one self is eating another self.
In other words, the moment you hold that hand, your existence is no different from disappearing.
“A thousand years is a long time. “I have become a crazy person.”
“… … .”
“Why is Etelius of the world hesitating? If you have a purpose, you will use any means possible! “That’s me a thousand years ago!”
“Hoo… … .”
“If my soul is your goal, take it! Of course, it won’t work out the way you want!”
Etelius smiled even deeper at Yukiel’s crazy smile.
Yes, Etelius is such a being.
If you have a purpose and want something, you don’t mind any means.
He is the one who must achieve it even if it means killing millions of people.
‘It’s an amazing feeling.’
I’ve been curious about this for a thousand years.
How would it feel to encounter another version of yourself?
Wouldn’t it feel like this if you had a child?
The sight of him provoking me with his venomous eyes is very enjoyable and interesting.
“I respect you. “I can do that to other guys, but I can’t do that to you.”
“then! “Are you saying you’ll give up if I refuse?”
At Yukiel’s words, Etelius smiled and nodded.
“It doesn’t matter what you choose. “I respect your wishes.”
“… … .”
“It would be great if we could become one and become a complete being. However, even if that happens, the plan doesn’t change.”
“What’s the plan?”
Yukiel swallowed dry saliva.
What on earth is this guy’s purpose?
What kind of absurd thing is he planning?
Etelius, who saw Yukiel’s trembling eyes, continued speaking with a gentle smile.
“For hundreds of years, while waiting for you to appear, I conducted countless considerations and studies. “About the existence of God and the determined source of ‘karma’ and ‘Akashic Records.’”
“… … .”
“It took several things to reach God. A consistent identity in the realm of images that adheres to the concept of existence and constitutes cognition and phenomena. This is the ‘frame’ in which the soul and transcendent power will reside.”
“… … .”
“The second thing you need is faith. To maintain established concepts and status quo, ‘respect’ and ‘faith’ are necessary. “It’s the same reason why the gods have believers in each religious order.”
“… … .”
“The third thing that is needed is an extremely large amount of energy that escapes the formed framework.”
With those words, Etelius put his glass down on the table and looked at the people laughing and chatting brightly outside the window.
“Honestly, I thought you were dead. According to my calculations, it couldn’t have been this late.”
“… … .”
“So I decided to make the plan I had in mind come true. “With nearly 200 years of thorough preparation, there were no variables.”
“… … .”
“And I opened the Dark Gate, summoned the Demon King, and brought the world to an end as planned.”
“… … !?”
Yukiel’s pupils shook.
The devil’s descent 300 years ago was his own doing?
Are you saying that you and the warriors who saved the world a thousand years ago did that crazy thing?
Yukiel’s fists were shaking and he glared at the warriors who were drinking.
“You crazy bastards! This is the world you saved with your hands! A thousand years ago! Have you forgotten that terrible fight?”
Anger soared.
How was the world saved?
I killed the Demon King at any cost.
After all that you went through, you did it again?
At a time when Yukiel was glaring at the group of warriors as if he were going to chew them to death, Sword Emperor Carlos spoke softly.
“So what’s changed?”
“what?”
“God said. “Save the world from the forces of evil.”
“… … .”
“But what has changed? “There were still people who died from hunger, and there were still people who couldn’t even cook blood porridge to eat because they had to pay a lot of money.”
“dog sound! You know that! The world was a mess back then… … .”
“No, it was the same even after 100 or 200 years.”
“… … .”
“Humans are arrogant and stupid. Less than 200 years after he experienced that horror, he was now at war with them, killing and killing them. “He drove countless people to death due to small greed and personal emotions.”
“… … .”
“A lot of time has passed, but humans have not changed. God just arrogantly watched. So we realized. ‘That’s just how humans are.’”
“What on earth… … .”
“They are the ones who will kill each other and die anyway. “No matter how many people die, as time goes by, they will multiply again like cockroaches as if they never happened.”
Yukiel looked at all the warriors with a puzzled expression.
Everyone just snorted and drank as if they agreed with what Carlos said.
“you guys… … . “Are they the same guys I knew?”
“To you, a thousand years ago may seem like yesterday, but we are different. A thousand years is… … . “It’s enough time to change.”
After saying those words, Carlos slowly closed his eyes and turned his head.
Yukiel looked at the court lady Emily with shaking eyes.
She also shrugged and agreed with Carlos.
“under! This is absurd… … .”
Yukiel put one hand on his forehead and let out an awkward laugh.
These are the people who risked their lives and died smiling for humanity.
I can’t believe people like that would do such ridiculous things.
At a time when Yukiel burst out laughing with a bewildered expression, Etelius glanced at Yukiel and continued speaking.
“I don’t understand. “Why are you angry?”
“what?”
“As you said, aren’t you and I capable of killing any number of people without hesitation for our own purposes? In fact, aren’t you also going to kill millions of people in this war?”
Yukiel was speechless at Etelius’ words.
As he said, he also plans to commit large-scale massacre for his own purposes.
Do you really have the right to criticize him like this?
Etelius, seeing Yukiel in agony, quietly turned his eyes and looked out the window.
“How is it? “The world I created.”
“… … .”
“We brought black magic to the forefront and achieved an unprecedented increase in population. “Food was plentiful and hunger was reduced.”
It’s all just part of the plan.
The energy to reach the realm of God is not enough in one ending.
Population explosion is a deliberate design for another apocalypse.
This time, to announce the beginning of a grand plan.
Meanwhile, Yukiel, who had calmed down his anger, glared at Etelius and continued speaking.
“What is your purpose? “Is this the genocide of all mankind?”
Etelius burst into laughter at Yukiel’s words.
That might be included, but it’s just a process.
“It’s just a process to reach divine status.”
“So what is the purpose?”
“Have you ever had any doubts?”
“… … ?”
“Why is the gate open and why do monsters recklessly want to slaughter humans?”
“What are you talking about… … .”
“What is the Destroyer, and what is the higher being, the Destroyer?”
“… … .”
“They are also like us. The system replaces ‘up’ with experience points to help players grow. “They are just like him.”
“… … .”
“My goal is to make this place a gateway to the multidimensional world. “We will use the open dimension to move to all dimensions, kill countless players, and extort their business to stand at the top of the system.”
Even if I was crazy, I was definitely crazy.
Is that really you?
Let alone whether it is possible or not, it is insane.
“Crazy, how is that possible?”
“possible.”
“By what means?”
“A dimensional rift has already occurred. By creating the gate, numerous dimensional gaps are being created.”
“no way… … .”
“Yes, I did the sealing of the Demon King. “The Demon King himself does not have the power to create a dimensional gap and induce the numerous changes he had planned.”
“… … .”
“However, from the perspective of the Middle-Earth and the Demon World, the Demon King has a great influence between the two dimensions just by existing in the Middle-Earth. “What do you think will happen as hundreds of years pass by sealing him away and widening the gap between the Demon World and Middle Earth?”
“No way, a dimensional distortion… … .”
“Yes, distortion occurs along with dimensional distortion. “If you use him well, you can induce a gate or bring about various changes.”
It’s not impossible.
The Demon King himself does not have such power.
However, the story is different when it comes to the dimensional power that connects the Middle Earth and the Demon World.
However, we can only say that it is ‘not impossible’, but making it possible is another story.
Just how high-level knowledge does the person in front of you have right now?
‘Still, it’s impossible.’
The multidimensional passageway he spoke of.
There is no way the energy to create something like that exists.
No matter how dimensional it is, there is no way that level of intervention power could exist.
Even if he uses some means by borrowing the power of the system, the same is true.
If that amount of energy were to exist… … .
“No way!”
Yukiel was startled and stood up from his seat.
Etelius, who saw him, smiled deeply and looked at Yukiel with crazy eyes.
“After all, it’s me. Have we already reached the answer?”
“You crazy bastard! “Are you planning on making all the demon lords descend?”
“Accurate. At the moment when all the Demon Lords descended, there was no way that Middle-Earth, weakened by distortion, could withstand the momentary, large-scale intervention force. At that moment, a temporary ‘dimensional fusion phenomenon’ occurs between the Demon World and the Middle World, and explosive energy erupts.”
In response to Etelius’ absurd plan, Yukiel took a long stride and grabbed him by the collar.
“Do you think you can handle all the demon lords?”
“Of course, first we have to awaken the sealed demon lord.”
“W-what?”
“Awakening the sealed demon king and opening the dark gate to bring about the apocalypse once again. In the process, he takes the lives, karma, negative energy, and thoughts of countless lives leading to death and ascends to the status of a complete god.”
“… … .”
“This is my second time. “It was not enough 300 years ago, but with the population exploding and a large number of demons descending, this time we will definitely achieve success.”
“Well, if you did something like that, here in Middle Earth… … .”
“The balance will be distorted due to dimensional distortion, so it will not be a place for living things to live.”
“ha ha ha… … .”
Yukiel was so dumbfounded that he let go of his collar and took a step back.
It is not at the level of simply fighting against Etelos.
If we don’t stop him, the world will be destroyed.
It cannot even be compared to the level of devastation caused by the descent of the Demon King.
Over time, nature becomes stable and humans achieve prosperity.
However, forcibly passing the dimensional threshold is not something that can be healed naturally.
“You crazy bastards… … .”
At that moment when Yukiel was backing away with a puzzled expression, Etelius suddenly grabbed Yukiel by the collar and pulled him.
Etelius, who put his face in front of his nose, continued speaking with a maniacal smile.
“How is it? “My grand plan.”
“… … .”
“I’ve been curious about this for hundreds of years. “What are my other thoughts?”
My heart was pounding.
It was a meticulous plan that took place in the shadows over hundreds of years.
Everything goes as planned, and there are no variables that arise.
‘What do you think?’
Is it closer to the desire of parents to be respected by their children?
Is it closer to the child’s desire to be accepted by his or her parents?
I wanted to be recognized for the achievements I have made over the past thousand years.
Because it seems like you, and no one else, can understand everything.
“Answer me. “Do you respect me?”
