There Is No Salvation for Extras - Chapter 138
138 – A happy midday dream (1)
A swinging sword and a falling neck.
Suddenly. Sigh!
Blood spraying and Dream Eater collapsing at the same time.
Sharp. Kwajangchang!
A body that falls into pieces due to being frozen-
Flap, flutter.
With the sight of a shattered body turning into a butterfly and flying through the sky with violent flapping of wings –
Kugugu Palace-!
A world shaking greatly and collapsing.
“…It’s over.”
“That’s right.”
Hyun-woo, who was staring blankly at that, sat down and muttered, and Ji-hyeon, who was sitting next to him, nodded in response to his words.
Is it because everyone fought with all their might? The four people who were the only ones to come to their senses at the moment – Han-gyeol, Sang-hoon, Ji-hyeon and Hyeon-woo – were breathing heavily and just looking at the collapsing world.
“What happens now?”
“…I don’t know either.”
In response to Ji-hyeon’s question, Hyun-woo shook his head and said he didn’t know, but-
“Really?”
“…No, I know the truth.”
Seeing the gaze staring at him, Hyunwoo smiled bitterly and shook his head.
While the world was completely falling apart, the sun was still high in the sky and even the still blue sky was starting to crack – which meant that his prediction was completely correct.
And-
“…I guess you knew it too?”
“Well, right?”
For some reason, it seemed like Jihyeon also knew about this.
Hyunwoo looked at her and asked, and she smiled bitterly, nodding her head with her meaningful words.
“…There won’t be time to talk, right?”
“Maybe.”
“…Even if it exists, will you forget it all when you get out of here?”
“……Maybe.”
Kugugugugugugu-
As if the world that was slowly collapsing suddenly accelerated. Han-gyeol and Sang-hoon, who were embarrassed as their shapes began to distort to the point where they were difficult to recognize, looked at them and tried to say something, but-
“It’s a shame. “There were a lot of things I wanted to ask and a lot of things I wanted to say.”
“……”
“I wanted to get angry and ask why he was complaining alone, or I wanted to smile and hug him for his hard work, but it’s so… Disappointing that I don’t even have time to do that.”
Her gaze was full of regret, but time was not on their side.
Kugugu Palace – Damn enemy!
Now, as even the floor of the garden where they sat began to collapse, they realized that the time for separation had come.
“…Now it’s really over.”
“Next time, I’ll see you again, right?”
To Jihyun’s last question, he could not answer right away.
That’s right, if the Dream Eater’s intentions are the same as he expected, he may be able to recall the memories here – but there is no way Ji-hyeon will be able to know his past and his secrets, and even Ji-hyeon will not be able to know his past and his secrets here. Because you won’t have any memories of.
When they reunited again, it wouldn’t be a good situation if they met in a relationship between hero and villain, so he tried to deny it –
“You can see it.”
But in the end, he answered the moment the place he was sitting on collapsed, and the answer was yes.
“Really?”
“Okay. Therefore-“
Is this a lie, or is he just expressing his own wishes?
Even he couldn’t tell the truth of the answer that came out without going through the brain, but-
“-See you next time. “Then, let’s just talk like we used to.”
“Is this a promise?”
“Okay-“
Blah blah blah-
“…It’s a promise.”
Quaaang!
At the very end, I held his hand.
He said that he was probably sincere when he made the promise he made when he was young.
At the end of the world, even they are shattered and no trace will remain.
Thinking like that, Hyunwoo quietly closed his eyes.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“Hello?”
“Oh, sh*t.”
When he opened his eyes again, the sight he was seeing was a space where the entire world was stained black.
“Welcome. “On the ordeal of the final boss-“
“Let’s stop acting now.”
Hyunwoo, who frowned as if he was floating in space, sighed as he glared at Dream Eater, who was smiling with his arms spread out in front of him.
“…Did you get caught?”
“I got caught and it was a shame. “I gave you this much hint, but does it make sense if you don’t know?”
Like a child who is bullying the child he likes, Dream Eater looks at him with expectant eyes, as if hoping to find out with what intention he was tormented.
“So- From where to how far is this a dream?”
“Umm-secret! “Anyway, you’ll know everything when you wake up, so isn’t it too bad for me to tell you?”
When Hyunwoo finally gave the correct answer, she began to show her happiness with her whole body, even clapping.
“But since when did you know? Was it from when I helped you?”
“Well, I had a vague idea that you were being so damned by showing me the past – I guess the first time was when I realized that there was no zero.”
“Hey… It’s really the beginning, right?”
“I wasn’t sure. I thought I was just brainwashed, but now that I think about it, it was only natural. “Even you, if you had Zero, you couldn’t have gotten this far.”
Zero is strong. It will be even stronger when dealing with Dream Eaters, who use their abilities extensively in this way and make them struggle within their abilities.
Anti-superpower- If you erase the ‘dream itself’ with the ability to erase superpowers, no matter how many people you put into the dream, they will disappear in one go.
But Zero is not here? They even sent him on another mission?
Isn’t this really nonsense? It was clear that he was probably by their side even the moment they entered the academy on a mission.
“If you’re trying to catch the leader of the evil brigade, there’s no way you can leave him behind in a situation like this.”
“Hmm. As expected, maybe you should have dragged that guy with you too, even if it was too much trouble?”
“If that were the case, your world would have shattered first.”
“Well, that’s true.”
But the fact that he didn’t show up here-
“Well, it’s still good. “Even if it was only a momentary dream, it was enough to complete what I wanted!”
Dream Eater put everyone in a dream except him.
The reason they are out of the dream now is that they may have shattered the dream, but it must mean that Zero did something.
“The timing is ironic.”
“Why, if only I had waited a little while, I could have Talked to Jihyeon – Is that so?”
“Don’t call her by her name like you’re a friend… Huh?”
Hyunwoo grumbled and sighed regretfully, but for a moment he felt a sense of discomfort from her words, but-
From Noble mtl dot com
“hehehehe.”
“…Get off.”
“Why? Still, it was me who helped you in the end? If it was sincere, it would be The academy and you would all be dead.”
When she suddenly hugged her from behind, she pushed her away and grumbled, erasing her discomfort from her mind, but when she didn’t move away, she let out a sigh and lowered her head. I gave up and stirred.
How much time has passed?
Bloody enemy-
“Oh my, is this time over now?”
“…Hey.”
“Good boy, is it time to wake up?”
As even this place began to crack, Dream Eater fell and she smiled, and Hyunwoo, who turned his back to check on her, opened his mouth to her for the last time.
“…You’re really asking this for the last time-“
“Isn’t this the last of the last? “You said it was the last time.”
“It’s noisy. Anyway – why are you helping me? Don’t say things like it’s a happy ending. “Answer me straight.”
“Uhm… I think I’ll get really upset if you don’t tell me this time, so I guess I should answer, right?”
Why on earth did you go to such lengths to help the leader of the evil brigade?
Nevertheless, did he help him and others even while opposing him?
“Hmm. First of all, you probably know it now, but this place is reality, right?”
When Hyunwoo asked that question, Dream Eater smiled and answered.
“Nevertheless, it is also true that you came from a world where the Creator already knows the future of this place.”
“Yes, I was possessed-“
“No, it’s not possession, it’s reincarnation, right?”
“What do you mean-“
“It’s noisy. “That’s not important now, is it?”
Did he still not know? He died in reality and was reincarnated here – and that was the only time he found memories of reality.
“When I saw your memories, honestly, I almost lost my mind, right?”
However, she said that there was not enough time to explain this to Hyunwoo, who was embarrassed, and began to continue her story, believing that he would be able to find the answer on his own.
“The world I lived in was actually just a world created based on games. “If that’s the case, then the reason I decided to live like this – in the end, it was the will of God, whom I believed in so much.”
When she read his memories for the first time, she almost went crazy too.
“Do you know what it felt like when I realized that the doctrine I had believed in and followed my whole life, and the Bible I had written it down in, was just a meaningless piece of paper from the beginning?”
Before becoming a villain – she was just a devout believer and a nun.
Even the literal content of her doctrine, which was the truth of her life and helped her get through her difficult times.
Even after she became disappointed in the world and became a villain.
Even when she distorted the content of her doctrine and interpreted it in her own way, she somehow believed it to be the truth, something she never doubted – something that in reality did not need to exist.
Yes, metaphorically speaking, when she realized that she was a useless setting with no content in the game, she lost the meaning of her life.
“I don’t know. No, you don’t need to know. I am the extra you often talked about. Because it was just a boss monster that was subdued by enemies. “Our main character doesn’t need to know.”
From a nun to a villain, from a villain to a devil who can be called the worst.
The process of moving forward like that, her life itself – other people’s achievements and fame are just a build-up to serve as a stepping stone.
Because for her, it was a fact she could never understand.
“But when I thought about it, this was an opportunity.”
But the moment she turned her thoughts 180 degrees, she realized a truth that could not even be compared to her doctrines.
“-If I act contrary to that future, wouldn’t I be able to go beyond being an extra and remain my whole self?”
She learned of a future in which she would be destroyed no matter what. However, whether she knows it or not is the difference between heaven and earth.
If you distort the future you face. Because she was acting ‘of her own will’ at that moment, contrary to ‘the story of her game’.
“Look! “There is no longer a future where you awaken the main character, then die to K while running away, and even strengthen the final boss?”
It is used as a stepping stone by strengthening the main character, and even at the end, there are no extras that strengthen the final boss and instill tension in the story.
“Another villain who was destined to disappear has now come back to life and escaped. There’s no way he’ll stick to K, so he’ll most likely be on your side. And I will be able to escape safely without dying? Because – I have no intention of escaping from this dream world anymore! In that case, there is no possibility of K being strengthened any further!”
She is she. She was reborn from a nun to a villain, and has now lived a life that is said to be her worst life – she is now a ‘villain’ who acts entirely according to her own will.
“…If that’s better, how about coming with us? “Then won’t the future be completely changed?”
“You can’t do that. So – in the end, it’s just a Puppet that moves according to God’s will, Right?”
So, since he is a villain, he has no intention of moving with Hyunwoo, who is no different from the reincarnation of God.
Because he was like the reincarnation of God? Because in the end, he was like a god who decided her fate as he pleased?
“I will move in my own way and destroy this world. In order to do that, you must not become strong. Because I need someone to take down K instead of me!”
Putting aside all reasons, the important reason is that she is by no means a good person.
“I will aim for the moment when that guy collapses – when the other guys become more and more broken and eventually both become weak. And I will proudly declare it!”
If this is God’s trick, if this world is nothing more than entertainment –
“The worst villain, a madman who went against even the will of God, has arrived! .”
In the play of the gods, how far can you go?
She is now in a position to test herself.
“…Crazy b*tch.”
“hahahaha. That’s the best compliment! Well, rather than a future like this, my first goal was to cajole you and make you crazy about me. Because it failed!”
“How can I cooperate with the b*tch who is destroying the world?”
“Hmm. To indulge in carnal desires? By seducing me with my body? “If I make you fall for me, that means I’ve subdued God, right?”
As she licked her lips as if licking Hyunwoo, Hyunwoo took a step behind her – but she shook her head and smiled broadly.
“Well, it has no meaning anymore. “I’ve already confirmed that I’m in love with Jihyun.”
That is a plan that has long since been abandoned. Now her only choice was to become an opportunistic hyena in her dreams.
“How far can you go, and how far can I go? Aren’t you so curious? So – until the day you defeat K and stand before me.”
I’ll be waiting for you? Do.
After whispering that last word, she disappeared without a trace-
“-Phalaenopsis dream.”
Just like that, as the world collapsed-
-Boss.
“…Zero.”
He quietly opened his eyes at the scene of the festival.
“What is the situation?”
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“…Liar.”
“Why am I a liar?”
“The destruction of the world. “You have no intention of doing that.”
“Hmm. After all, I know so much, should I just erase my memories?”
“Sorry. Please don’t do that. Please. Please.”
“…Just kidding. “There’s no way I would do something like that to you, who are ‘the same class’ as me.”
It’s only for a moment, but the silence continues.
Looking at Jihyun, who was just watching the whole scene, Dream Eater laughed.
“…Just because I know Hyunwoo’s memories, does that mean I’m in the same group?”
“No, a fellow human being who has broken away from following God’s will and has made up his own mind.”
“Ha… Well, that’s okay.”
“Okay, that’s not what’s important now. “It’s time for you to go back now.”
“…Because Hyunwoo returned?”
“Not only that, but I also have to receive gifts from newly appeared peers. “If there is someone who gives but no one receives, that’s sad, isn’t it?”
“A gift…?”
“Yes, a gift.”
A simple gift to another Irregular who is the reincarnation of another god who tries to change the world by deviating from the will of the damned god.
“If you wake up here – go find the boy with blonde hair and gray eyes.”
“……”
“You already know the number of people, right?”
Dream Eater began to quietly disappear while whispering to Jihyun, and at the last moment-
“…If you fail, I will kill you too. “I’m giving up on what I want to do – no, I’m just going to admit it and hand the opportunity over to you?”
“……”
“Really… I ended up turning around and saying we were childhood friends. “This isn’t some kind of novel.”
She pouted her mouth and let out her true feelings – a mixture of frustration and jealousy.
And Ji-hyeon, who realized something after seeing that, immediately smiled broadly as if she was sorry-
“It’s not that you were a liar, you were just being disingenuous. Still, I can’t give up either.”
-Director Nam.
The moment when the world started to collapse.
“-Jihyun!”
“…Yena.”
“What’s wrong? Suddenly, I was standing there blankly. Let’s hurry!”
She opened her eyes in reality-
“…Jihyun?! Where?!”
“Sorry. “I have some business to run!”
“No, wait a minute! Hey-!”
“Have fun with Injun!”
A couple walking with a smile while holding their child’s hand on either side, people laughing and chatting while taking pictures, and a fresh couple looking around with their arms around them.
Family, friends, or lovers-
This is a branch of the Justice Academy, where everyone is walking around with a smile on their face, regardless of their relationship.
It wasn’t crowded with students before, but there were so many people gathered that it felt more crowded than before.
Long before falling into the world of dreams, I ran forward in a ‘reality’ that was exactly the same as the scene before receiving the request for cooperation from the heroes.
For some reason, I was smiling.
Not waiting for herself, but for her boy for whom she had waited so long.
Like that, she started running through the academy.
