The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 244



245 – Conscious Self

“Loss…!”

“Lily!”

Estelle and Amber ran to my side and helped me up, but I had no choice but to struggle due to the intense pain that felt like my insides were burning. When I spit out the blood that had accumulated in my mouth to breathe, a scream came out from deep in my lungs.

“Potion… ! Take out the potion!”

At Estelle’s urgent cry, Lloyd hurriedly took out a potion from the bag he was carrying, but it was not easy to control me as I lost my temper and went crazy in pain.

“Just subdue it!”

Estelle kicked my knee from behind. As she lost her balance and her body tilted, Lloyd threw her body and knocked me to the floor with her weight.

While Ember was holding on to both of my arms, Estelle violently grabbed my hair and tried to pour the potion into her mouth, but I pushed Lloyd and Ember away with tremendous force and swung my fist with the intention of blowing Estelle’s head off.

Estelle quickly pulled her body back to avoid the fist and screamed.

“You crazy b*stard! “I’m doing this to help you!”

I know. But now I was out of my mind. All I can think about is killing everyone around me.

[ Power – Combat continuation is activated. ]

[The Berserker effect is activated. ]

This is because Indomitable Courage, which would block the berserker’s penalty, was not activated. As she let out a scream and swung her fist at Estelle with all her might, her vision suddenly went black.

I felt like my body was being sucked into somewhere. When I come to my senses, what I see before me is a world made up entirely of black and white.

It’s not an unfamiliar place. Because I have visited this place before. This was the imaginary world where I met Ross.

But this place was very different from before. In a world made up of black and white, unidentifiable whirlpool-like things were spinning endlessly, and soul-like things were floating in the air.

And in the distance, I could feel something repeating creation and extinction. Strangely, I felt something like an instinctive attraction to it. The moment I was about to take a closer look at it, I heard a voice from somewhere.

[Haha- I never thought I would finally get a body! Good thing I planted a part of myself as a terminal in the Spear of Shadow! I expected you guys would get greedy again one day!]

Something began to take shape in front of me. It was the figure of an old man with torn skin and black wings on his back. The old man, who had been wriggling his body like an intestine for a moment, shouted, black saliva dripping down his face.

[I am Uricus, the devil of the four quarters and your master!]

“Urikus… ?”

It’s a name I’ve never heard before. It had to be a demon that wasn’t even mentioned in the novel. At my mumbling, Uricus flapped his wings and looked at me with a puzzled expression.

[huh… ? How do you keep your sanity? Wouldn’t humans lose their sense of reason just by looking at the true nature of this body?]

Uricus, who was muttering to himself, gave me an ugly smile, his eyes shining with greed.

[Well, it doesn’t matter. If only I could escape this awful seal! You are mine!!!]

Black intestines poured out from Uricus’ back and instantly wrapped around my body like a whip. The skin that touched my internal organs rotted black and I felt pain as if my flesh was burning.

“Ugh… ! “Let go of this!”

I couldn’t escape by force, so I used my intangible breath to struggle, but I could only wriggle my internal organs and couldn’t escape.

[Hehehe, I can’t escape. The moment you grab the spear, you’ve already fallen into a trap! Now, let me savor my first meal in a long time very slowly.]

Uricus’ black intestines covered my eyes. My vision went dark and I screamed in pain as my eyes burned. I felt something digging into my brain through my eyes. It was impossible to tell whether it was liquid or a bug because of the pain.

“Kaaa… !”

Realizing that my body would truly be taken over by Uricus if I continued like this, I desperately used my intangible breathing to resist until the end.

“go away… !”

[Haha… ! There is no use in struggling! This is your mental world. No one can help! I will digest everything that is yours as mine!]

Something that was gnawing at my brain tightened its grip on some part. For a moment, I screamed with all my might as my head exploded in pain.

“Kwaaa… !!!”

Really die!

At that moment, the screaming voice disappeared. The pain she felt throughout her body disappeared without leaving even a faint trace. It almost felt like an illusion that she felt pain just a moment ago. While I was feeling strange about my condition, I suddenly heard Uricus’ scream.

[Wow… ! for a moment… This doesn’t make sense… ! Ugh, how can you barely be human…? !!!]

Someone answered Uracus’ words.

―Just like a human… ?

It was only then that I realized it when I heard the voice coming out of my mouth. I was pushed by something and lost control of my body. I am not the owner of the voice now… !

I speak in a dry voice without emotion, intonation, or even pitch.

―That’s not something a dummy created thanks to probability would say.

[Don’t be funny! How dare an insignificant person fool me? !!!]

Uricus unleashed tremendous magical energy. Uricus, whose body had expanded to the point where it could take up my entire field of vision, hurled a spear of shadow at me.

[Die… !]

Just before the window hits. At that moment, she felt a strange feeling as if the corner of her mouth went up.

―Pukpukpuk!

With a mad laugh, he stretched out his hand and waved it. With that simple act, Uricus’ huge body exploded and exploded. Uricus, who was broken into pieces and scattered, let out a scream of pain.

[Kaaa… !!!]

I felt pure joy at that sight. It is not a calculated act like revenge. It was just pure joy in the act of killing the other person.

―Pukeuk! Let this merciful body make your trivial dreams come true.

When I opened my palm, black energy suddenly surged from my palm, and a spear of shadow took shape on its own.

As I raised my magic power while holding the Spear of Shadow, the bodies of Uricus, which had been broken into pieces, began to be sucked towards the Spear of Shadow.

-But this time, you will never wake up… Puke puke puke!!!

[not… no… ! Stop, stop… ! Stop… !!!]

I didn’t stop despite Uricus’s pleas. Uricus’ torn body was all sucked into the Spear of Shadow.

And then silence came. After staring at the shadow window that was quietly vibrating for a while, I opened my mouth.

“Uricus was eaten by the Spear of Shadow. “Now don’t worry and use it.”

I realized that those words were directed at me.

‘you… ‘What is it?’

The person I am now speaks in the same way as the masked Ross I met back then. Did the cult leader’s trap still remain within me? Rather, if it’s a trap, is there any reason to help me?

“Pukpukkh! Hey, the order is wrong. “I am not the cult leader’s trap.”

I couldn’t help but be shocked by those words. This b*stard is reading my thoughts!

The other me lowered my shoulders, like a gourmet looking at delicious food in front of me.

“Pukeuk… You’ve got a lot to lose in the meantime. I even learned about the emotions I shouldn’t experience. “Puhuhuhuh!”

People who had a connection with me began to come to mind. The members, Estelle, Roel, and their girlfriends. The images of Navier, Estelle, Rotun, and Lycan flashed through my mind.

Only then did I realize that this guy was scanning my memories.

‘Stop it!’

“Don’t you still know that the more your relationship accumulates, the longer your fall will be, pukpukpuh… !!!”

Strange things come to mind. The members dying by my hands, and me collapsing in despair. Even Roel was in tears and had no choice but to try to kill me.

‘stop… ! Get out of my head… !’

At my shout, another me held my stomach and laughed like crazy.

“Fuuuha… ! Do you really want to deny the essence like that? “If I hadn’t stepped forward, you would have lost your body to a devil like that and been killed by Roel again!”

That was true. If it weren’t for him, it would have been Uricus who was controlling my body right now.

But from my perspective, this guy and that guy are just guys trying to control me.

As if reading that thought, I sighed and slapped my forehead with my hand! He said hitting me.

“Okay, you idiot. I’ll get out of the way for now, whatever you want. But you will have no choice but to accept me.”

‘Don’t be funny. That will never happen.’

“After all, it all started with me! I will wait for the moment when you regain your true essence! Pukhpukpahahpuk!!!”

The sound of maniacal laughter echoed, and I felt like my body was suddenly being sucked somewhere again.

The sound of laughter and the black-and-white world disappeared, and a pure white world unfolded before my eyes. I stood up unsteadily. You regain control of your body.

What on earth saved me from the world of images? What on earth does it mean that the order of the traps is wrong? Doubts began to rise endlessly.

As I was lost in thought for a moment, something rained down from the sky and hit my head. Thanks to you, I was able to wake up from my thoughts.

“ah… .”

What was pouring down were small beads. The penalty for continuing the battle was activated.
