A story about a max level player’s 100th return, Episode 36
36. World line of episode 0
-Well, what is that bastard going to do to me again… … .
Fear appeared in Hwang Yongmin’s eyes.
Bad memories about the black scythe are tangled in my mind.
Memories of cutting off the limbs of myself and my friends while chasing Seo A-rin.
A memory of having to attack a relic in the 3rd round and incurring a penalty.
And even the memory of him revealing himself to be a black scythe and cutting off his head without mercy, saying that it had reached the end of its usefulness.
Ryumin, who read everything through the runes of his inner heart, was able to obtain one piece of information.
‘This bastard. ‘You’ve implanted more memories than when you saw it before, right?’
For example, there was an episode where Hwang Yong-min knelt and prayed when there was no rune in his heart.
He says he will be your perfect ally if you let him live, and asks you not to kill him because he will still have value.
Ryu Min, who was deceived by those three words, was soon stabbed in the back by Hwang Yong-min and died.
‘When I think about it now, it was a foolish thing to do. I wonder what they were thinking of keeping me alive… … .’
From then on, Ryu Min decided not to trust Hwang Yongmin.
‘Anyway, Hwang Yong-min now also has memories of that time.’
What this means is that even the memories of the episode in which he failed were transferred to this side.
‘More world line collapses will occur in the future. Then the world will become more confused than it is now.’
Ryu Min looked at Hwang Yongmin with alarm.
I think it was a good idea to keep him alive.
It seemed like my trashy personality wasn’t going to change.
“Even though the situation is like this, are you thinking about jewelers or robbers? Hwang Yong-min?”
“… what! What am I! I didn’t do anything! “Then it’s done.”
“okay. People don’t change easily. “It’s just you.”
-Did you come here to pick me up? what?
I read Hwang Yong-min’s thoughts, but I decided to pass this off with charm.
Can’t you do anything with your mind?
Just the fact that that scoundrel didn’t say it out loud can be seen as a huge step forward.
‘Things have changed, but you still have this fear of me.’
Even though he knew Ryu Min was a shuttle, Hwang Yong-min did not ignore or look down on him.
Being hit by the black scythe was like a trauma to me, so I couldn’t say anything.
It seemed like he no longer thought of him as the Ryumin he used to be.
“… What, what? What business do you have with me? I was just glaring at you without saying a word… … .”
“I just came here because I was curious about what you were doing. however… … .”
As Ryu Min approached, Hwang Yong Min took a step back in embarrassment.
“You still can’t change your bad habits and start doing trash. “Do I have to cut off my wrist to fix this?”
“… … .”
Ryumin placed his hand on the frozen shoulder of Hwang Yongmin.
“You know, right? “If I can do it, I’m the kind of person who will do it.”
“… … .”
“Behave well. “If you don’t want to have your throat cut off with a sickle again.”
“… … .”
“answer.”
“Oh, okay… uh.”
Ryumin tapped my shoulder and disappeared like smoke.
Hwang Yong-min blinked several times as he couldn’t believe what he saw.
I thought I had seen it wrong, but I quickly shook my head.
The feeling of being touched on the shoulder could not be dismissed as a hallucination.
“under… Fuck you. “Your nose was pierced properly.”
Hwang Yong-min, who had been looking at the jewelry store for a while, turned around with a regretful expression.
* * *
Ryu Min, who was watching Hwang Yong-min leave from the sky, smiled and moved his wings.
Now the positions of the two have completely changed.
‘Looking into his heart, he won’t cause trouble while I’m away.’
The real problem was something else.
‘The world line is collapsing faster than expected.’
The reason I stopped by this world line in the first place was to check how far the situation had progressed.
However, the memories of multiple world lines were intertwined, and the entire world was experiencing confusion.
‘We have to stop the deolant right away. To do that, you need overwhelming power.’
I thought about trapping him using Elsis’ illusion prison function like he did with Kronos.
‘It can’t work. They are descendants of the creator god who created Elsis.’
If this happens, we have no choice but to raise Terra and engage in a force-to-force fight.
but.
‘The level of deolant surpasses mine. There is no chance of winning in a head-to-head match now.’
Then there is only one way.
‘I have no choice but to go get Terra.’
Ryumin used the power of time to move to another world line.
Instead of moving to the 100th and 101st world lines that we have moved to, we moved to the 0th world line.
* * *
The existing world line was like this.
A world line from the 1st to the 100th rounds created through repeated regression.
After the 101st return, the attack was successful and the 97 world lines were divided according to each person’s wishes.
Lastly, the 102nd world line that eliminated all shortcomings.
However, there was a world line that was overlooked.
This is the world line of episode 0.
Among them, Ryu Min could not hear the world line of the episode in which he failed.
There was no particular reason.
‘Maybe they were subconsciously excluding it because it was a failed world line.’
But this time it moved.
To the world line of round 0, where he had failed for the first time.
‘For a failed world leader, he’s doing better than I thought.’
I wasn’t expecting a grand apocalypse like the destruction of humanity, but I still expected it wouldn’t be a normal society.
However, when I came and watched it, the feeling was not much different from other world lines.
Even though 1.8 billion people have disappeared, the world somehow continues to run well.
‘I guess I thought too grandly about my existence. ‘I’m just one of 1.8 billion humans.’
The world didn’t fall because you couldn’t protect it.
Of course, I couldn’t protect my colleagues.
Seo A-rin, Min-ri Min, and Christine.
A dead person here.
Because this is a world where the game of survival has failed, there are no surviving companions.
Even Ryumin from episode 0 failed.
What did you come to a place like this?
‘I came to check out one possibility.’
Ryumin opened Elsis’s function.
[Function – World Line Rewind]
-Description: You can look back on the past of the world line. Intervention is impossible as this is history that has already passed.
– Consumes 100,000 Divine Force per year
A function that examines the history of the world line, rather than examining the past of an object.
Ryumin planned to take a look at this function.
At what point did you die?
and.
‘If you know the exact coordinates of that point in time, it is possible to move using the power of time.’
In other words, Ryumin’s plan was to go to the moment Ryumin died in episode 0 and absorb his power.
Because I confirmed that when my other self dies, if he is on the same world line, his strength increases.
‘In my heart, I want to go to the time when Chaos and Gaia were alive and kill them to absorb tens of billions of Terra. But it’s impossible.’
The trick of building up Terra by repeating regression does not work.
They belong to the primordial god level and are not affected by regression.
Even if you go back, only a new world line will be created.
Terra is not absorbed that way.
‘In the end, I have no choice but to use my soul. A copy of myself who had already died in the past.’
A method that came to mind because when Mojo Ryumin died, if he was with him, his strength would flow.
Ryumin immediately used the world line rewind function to rewind history.
and.
‘found.’
He went to the exact coordinates where he died.
Using the power of time.

December 31st, 11:55 PM.
Many people gathered in front of Bosingak, where the New Year’s Eve bell ceremony was held.
Everyone came out in the cold night to welcome the coming new year.
Ryu Min was one of them.
‘It’s a new year in just 5 minutes. If you make a wish in the new year, will it really come true?
Ryumin came out with such expectations.
Because I had a wish that I desperately wanted to come true.
“We can all count down together from 5 seconds! 5… 4… 3… 2… One… !”
Big love-!
“The new year has arrived!”
“Waaaa!!”
As the new year dawned, Ryu Min closed his eyes and made a wish.
‘This year, it’s me and Won. Please let my family live happily without getting sick.’
I don’t want to be bullied by Hwang Yong-min’s gang anymore.
I don’t want to live in poverty anymore.
Ryu Min decided that after graduating, he would work harder than he does now.
I promised myself that I would live happily with Won.
however.
[Giggles. Humans are fun. Celebrating the New Year without knowing what kind of situation they are in.]
The resolution did not last long.
Because the angel appeared, he was taken to another world.
‘What, what? What do you do on the 1st of every month?’
I heard an explanation from the angel a while ago, but I still haven’t figured out the situation.
Because of that, I couldn’t decide on a special nickname even when customizing it.
‘Woah, this is a grassland, right? What happened… ?’
All the sensations were too real to be dismissed as a dream.
[Then, finally, say ‘inventory’ and look inside. I have prepared a gift for you.]
Ryumin, who listened intently to the explanation, followed the angel’s instructions.
‘Random rune fragment?’
As I held the rune piece in my hand and thought ‘use’, a message came to mind.
[You used a random rune piece.]
[congratulations! ‘Time Reversion Rune’ has arrived!]
[The acquired runes are automatically imprinted on the player’s body!]
[Time Reversion Rune]
-Effect: A rune that allows you to go back 1 round when you die. Up to 100 opportunities are given. When all opportunities are used up, the rune automatically disappears.
‘what’s this? ‘You can return when you die?’
I wanted to know if it was true, but there was no one to ask.
In the midst of all the chaos, the first round began.
Kyaaaaaaa!
50,000 goblins rushed in like a pack of dogs.
“Ahh!”
“How can I catch that!”
“Ka, you’re holding a knife!”
“Kwaaah! help me!”
“Lord, I don’t want to die!”
“Please tell me it was a dream, please!”
There are only a few people who fight.
Most people were so scared of the goblins that they were busy running away.
The same was true for Ryumin… .
puck!
“evil!”
Someone pushed me with my shoulder, so I missed the moment to run away.
“Kiyaaaak!”
“Keeeeee!”
Numerous green waves rush towards Ryumin.
‘iced coffee… … .’
Ryumin was in a state of panic and was unable to stand up.
I just thought that the current situation was a dream, and that in a moment I would wake up from the vivid dream.
I just thought it would be nice if that were the case.
but.
Sigh! Sigh! Sigh!
I learned this clearly when I was surrounded by countless goblins.
This is a reality that goes without saying.
[You are dead.]
[The conditions for activating the ‘Time Reversion Rune’ have been met.]
[Go back in time to 1 round ago.]
[Number of uses: 1/100]
[The first regression begins.]
