The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 303



304 – Truce

I was able to escape the passage and arrive at the outskirts of the outer universe where Los of Longing and Jinxian are located. The goshiwon room looked as if there had been a huge earthquake, and the things on the desk were scattered on the floor.

When I opened the door, the walls and ceiling collapsed and I could see the Milky Way. It looks like something is happening here. Fortunately, the floor was still the same. I moved carefully and looked for Jin Xian. I saw Jin Xian’s back sitting on the living room floor, as if he hadn’t moved after sending me to another world.

Somehow it looked different from the last time I saw it. He was wearing clothes with a long cape like an archmage, and spheres emitting black light around him were slowly spiraling as if to protect Jinxian.

“hey.”

As I approached him and said that, Jin Xian turned and looked at me. She was so startled by Jin Xian’s appearance that she stopped walking for a moment. The place where her eyes were were sunken into her hollows. She wriggled endlessly, as if her ugly scar was alive on top of her.

“Are you here? “It’s later than expected.”

It wasn’t just the eyes that disappeared. One of her arms was missing. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that there were several black spots on my skin.

“What happened?”

“what?”

I was dumbfounded to see Jin Xian asking with a calm face, as if he didn’t know what the question was.

“What’s wrong with my eyes and arms?”

“Ah, it’s because I’m dealing with causality. “An eye and an arm are a cheap price to pay.”

“Causality… ?”

Causality was something Jin Xian was very wary of. She was very cautious in helping me, wary of the causality her actions would have on me.

It is possible because it is a natural flow to help me figure out what I can guess based on memory, but the causality law is applied just by Jinsian telling me information that I cannot guess at the moment.

So, Jin Xian helped me gain enlightenment by asking me questions and guiding my thinking in the direction he wanted. Instead of catching fish, you teach them how to fish on their own.

“It’s the price you pay for protecting your life from that b*stard.”

Jin Xian’s huge hand saved me as I was trapped in numerous passages. Even though he was attacked by Roel at the end, if it weren’t for Jin Xian, he would have been trapped in the maze-like passage.

“thank you.”

I was deeply grateful to Jin Xian, who lost an arm and both eyes to save my life. But Jin Xian just shrugged his shoulders, saying it was no big deal.

“So, did you get what you wanted?”

Instead of answering, I sat down in front of Jin Xian. Looking closer, huge eyes appeared behind Jin Xian’s back. Maybe that’s what’s replacing his vision.

“Yeah, so there’s something I want to check with you.”

“I didn’t know you were a good student who got your answers checked by the teacher.”

Behind the playfully sarcastic Jin Xian, huge eyes looked at me as if they were observing my expression.

“You said it last time. “If you do something that goes against the laws of the world, cause and effect will come back to you.”

I felt Jin Xian’s huge eyes looking at me intently. I continued speaking in a confident voice.

“Our fake possession created by a saint goes against the laws of the world. “I suspect that the resulting causal effect had some influence on Roel.”

“Hoo, why did you think that?”

“Because you were sure. Roel’s beliefs do not change in any multiverse. I thought about it assuming that was true. “Was it really possible for Roel to return to another world?”

Jin Xian smiled bitterly. I was even more confident in that response.

“If causality was necessary for the enemy’s actions, the cult leader would not have been able to send a powerful trap when he sent it to me through the mask. “If there had been a causal force to send a trap strong enough to change the flow, the cult leader or Confsion would have stepped forward directly.”

“Are you saying the cult leader didn’t send a trap?”

I shook my head at Jin Xian’s happy voice.

“No, it’s a trap. “A very cunning trap that subconsciously makes Roel think there is a secret by showing it to me.”

“kk.”

“There is only one conclusion that can be drawn under the assumption that the religious leader cannot consume a huge amount of causality during that period. “In order to not go against the probability of a natural flow, the contents of the trap are not made-up lies, but are true.”

But there is a critical error here. If the cult leader’s trap is true, it means that Roel used a passage that could lead to another world. In fact, he almost got killed by Roel while he was using the passage, so this is an obvious fact.

However, if Roel uses the passage to go to another world, there will be two Roel in that world. Roel comes from a different world from the Roel that existed before. Two identical protagonists cannot exist in the same world. It is something that goes against probability, and Roel from another world will not be able to avoid the world’s denial.

Even if the existing Roel is killed and Roel from another world deceives the world and takes his place. In the first place, if Roel was a being who crossed over to another world, the term “return” would be incorrect. The fact that Roel used the passage eliminates the assumption that it was a regression.

“Roel did not regress. “I just met Roel from the next world.”

I remembered what the masked being said during the cult leader’s trap.

“… “Chasing the dream that continues.”

“kk! We have finally reached a natural flow that does not interfere with causality. Yes, Roel did not regress. No, Roel realized that returning was just an act of trapping oneself in another bondage.”

Jin Xian burst into laughter and stretched out his remaining arm forward. In an instant, her magical power converged and an empty snow globe was created in Jin Xian’s palm.

“This is a gift specially prepared for you.”

“A snow globe with nothing in it… ?”

As if he had been waiting for those words, Jin Xian smiled and unleashed tremendous magical energy. Her magical energy flowed into the snow globe, swirling inside, and a world was seen being created.

“It is my own unique magic that has upgraded Nelson’s image world magic by several levels.”

Someone’s face was visible inside the shaking snow globe. This is Roel’s face. It was also the image of Roel facing each other. When I looked at it as if wondering what this was, Jin Xian smiled confidently.

“No matter how vivid your memories are, no one will fully believe them. However, if you become a person involved and experience the memory, you can even feel the emotions of that time.”

Jin Xian held out a snow globe and smiled wryly.

“Would you like to become Roel?”

This is the final piece. Jin Xian prepared a gift so that I could see the entire puzzle. Without hesitation, I reached for the snow globe.

As soon as I felt a cold touch on my fingertips, my sense of direction became confused, like I was in a washing machine. She felt a bright light along with the feeling of being sucked somewhere.

“Huh, oh oh… .”

I’m out of breath. I realized a long time ago that this is an opponent I can never defeat. But he couldn’t stop fighting. Because I never give up. Despite the obvious fact that everyone had already been lost, I did not lose hope.

God will exist somewhere. The holy sword in my hand was proof that God clearly exists. When the last fight is over, God will definitely smile on me. If we overcome that, God will definitely return.

Cult leader. No, now the being outside of human form asked me.

“Are you really planning to fight me forever?”

It’s been a long time since I haven’t eaten or rested. The body that went beyond the realm of transcendence did not feel fatigue, unlike other people. It is clear that God’s blessing is upon me as the owner of the Holy Sword.

“No, I plan on winning.”

Saying that, he once again infused power into the holy sword. I don’t know how much time has passed. Years or even decades may have passed. Just as I can never defeat my opponent, my opponent can never defeat me.

I couldn’t figure out why the divine being who destroyed the world couldn’t defeat me. The fatal blows aimed at each other were as impervious as cutting through water. But that was enough. Unless one side gives up, the eternal fight will continue. And I never give up.

「… I’m serious. “That is not human will.”

“That’s right, this is the will of everyone who believed in me.”

The silence fell. There was nothing that could make a sound except that being that came out of the cracks of the world destroyed by chaos. It was a world where not even a single blade of grass remained.

The being who was silent for a moment spoke.

“God’s puppet. “I propose it to you.”

“proposal?”

“We can’t beat each other. It’s just an endless fight. So why not call a truce?”

I burst out laughing. The being who destroyed the world at will wants a truce. It’s not worth listening to. He grabbed the handle of the holy sword and raised his magical power. Just as he was about to swing the holy sword at an angle with his only remaining arm, the being in front of him spoke.

“I’ll give you a chance.”

The holy sword stopped at the meaningless words. We’ve had many conversations while fighting, but this was the first time I’ve ever said something like this.

“… “What opportunity are you talking about?”

“A chance to stop this meaningless eternal fight and really defeat me.”

The being in front of me moved its hand. Then, something like a portal appeared between us, with what seemed like dozens of overlapping colors.

“I invite you to my throne.”
