Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell Chapter 142

# 142

142

A soft sunset slowly descended on the translucent stairs.

Daeseong, who sensed Melcanon’s resurrection, ran in the direction where Dawn appeared.

Then, I came across a staircase leading down from the Gate of Light.

Ttogak-. Ttogak-.

It was at that time that regular footsteps could faintly be heard from beyond the door.

‘what?’

Suddenly, Daesung felt an indescribable discomfort and smoothed the back of his neck.

Only after thinking briefly about the unknown chill, he was able to realize the identity of this discomfort.

‘Magic power is being diluted.’

In other words, it would be safe to interpret it as weakening.

The amount of magical power itself remains unchanged, but its quality is deteriorating.

The concentration of magical power quickly diminishes, as if water were mixed in a thick liquid.

This accelerated as the footsteps got closer, and by this time it was clear what the cause was.

‘The presence beyond that portal of light is suppressing my power.’

A drop of cold sweat ran down his temple, but Daesung did not show it.

Soon, Melcanon stepped on the threshold and finally appeared in front of Daeseong.

The appearance of a young man as seen from the tower.

As expected, his appearance does not fit the preconceptions given by the name ‘Great Sage’.

“My whole life, I have been focused on looking deeply into something and learning about it. Then, without even realizing it, I realized how to return to the old.”

A beautiful sound like rolling jade flowed from Melcanon’s mouth.

Daesung lightly shrugged his shoulders.

“Do you know how to read other people’s thoughts?”

“Unfortunately, I never mastered mind reading. “I just guessed it from the facial expression.”

“….”

“I apologize if I said something presumptuous. And… thank you. “Thank you for saving me.”

Melcanon placed his right hand on his left clavicle and bowed straight.

When he took action first, the other Hekar tribes surrounding him also bowed in gratitude.

However, as I said before, what I want to receive from them is not just a facade.

Daesung was about to ask the question that had become almost a habit now.

“I heard you are looking for a way to reach the source of the dimension.”

“Do you know?”

“It’s not that I know it… only I and my son can create a divine object that touches the source.”

Only then did Daesung feel relieved.

The worst case scenario of even Melcanon being ignorant was avoided.

It was the first time I had heard of him having a son, but it probably wasn’t that important.

What remained was the question of whether or not there would be another difficult road in creating the new product.

And as expected, Melcanon showed an embarrassed expression, as if nothing was easy in this world.

“But it takes a long time.”

“How long will it take?”

“I do not know. I can’t give you any confirmation right now until I try it. It could take a month, or it could take a whole year.”

“If it could take a month, does that mean the minimum is one month?”

“…That’s right.”

Daesung frowned.

The minimum is one month.

No, a month would be better. ‘Minimum’ meant that there was a high probability that it would take much longer than that.

‘There is no time to just wait without an appointment.’

Since Hekar’s vision was like that, I had a vague idea that some kind of divine object would be used as a way to reach the source.

Also, it was expected that if new material was used, it would not be completed in a day or two.

But I didn’t expect to have to wait this long.

Can not be done. The minimum is one month. Even if I die and wake up, I can’t wait.

Daesung asked Melcanon with the intention of gathering at least one piece.

“How do you make that new thing?”

“The blood of the world has an area called the ‘fountain of all creation.’”

“The fountain of all things?”

“It is a river that crosses the world of existence and the world of reality. Like the ‘origin of dimensions’, the ‘fountain of all things’ is also a world close to abstraction, outside the realm of matter. “With Sam’s help, reaching the source will not be impossible.”

“I guess that Sam guy doesn’t give help easily.”

Melcanon lowered his head with a heavy expression.

“The ‘fountain of all things’ is not a river that simply flows. “I can communicate with people who have a clear will and come to me looking for answers.”

“Are you asking a question that is difficult to answer? “Then that’s not communication.”

“no. That’s not it. Sam provides the answer right away. “It’s just that the listener doesn’t understand.”

“You don’t understand?”

“Sam’s ‘language’ always changes every time we go. “I’m hearing words for the first time in my life.”

In other words, he was answering questions, but speaking an alien language.

In some ways, it was a much more difficult problem than a physical collision.

“Then I remember what Sam said and wrote it down. “I lock myself in the library and decipher the text all day.”

“That’s why you said you didn’t know how long it would take.”

“Every time we ask for Sam’s help, a new language is updated, so there is no material that can be used as a clue. “It is the work of bringing something out of nothingness.”

After listening, I understood why Melcanon looked so embarrassed.

If it was a problem that could be solved simply by pushing the body hard, then that would be enough, even if it meant cutting bones and flesh.

But forcing your brain out is different. Digging into the unknown was not a problem that could be solved by pushing ahead recklessly.

‘What should I do?’

So I became more impatient.

Daesung couldn’t hide his nervous expression and touched his chin.

Then I suddenly remembered that more than 24 hours had passed since I first set foot in the world.

‘I guess I should at least look into the void.’

Since a day has passed, new information must have been updated.

Of course, he had already been greatly disappointed by the void recently, so he did not have high expectations.

Sarah-.

When I opened the store window and selected ‘Purchase Information’, a golden document landed in my hand.

《No. 1 Information》

「Japanese people who travel to New Mexico via teleportation obtain blood stones.」

「Several groups of randos on the border, feeling threatened by the rapid increase in the number of people with magical abilities, stage a coup.」

Although it was important news in its own way. The most urgent fire was still a void that could not be solved.

If the first-ranked information is like this, there is no need to talk about the rest of the ranked information.

At that time, Daesung, who openly showed his disappointment, was about to close the void.

“oh my god. “Isn’t that the ‘Akashic Records’?”

Melcanon’s voice, which had been soft until now, suddenly changed with a hint of excitement.

The expression on his face was also a mixture of shock and joy.

Daesung, unable to figure out why he was reacting like that, tilted his head.

“This is not an Akashic Record, but a Void Record.”

“no. no. Well, it makes sense… but its real name is Akashic Records. “There’s no way my eyes were wrong.”

“Why are you so sure?”

“Because I made it. “Is there a fool in the world who would mistake his own research for something else?”

“….”

Daesung couldn’t help but be dazed for a moment at the unexpected story.

He insisted that he had made the items that were hanging out in the heavenly store window, so it was quite difficult to understand.

“The Akashic Records are a miniature version of the Northern Library, which contains a vast amount of knowledge. However, when those from heaven invaded our world, it was plundered. But how could it be in your hands…”

Melcanon trailed off and began to stare at Daesung for a moment.

Daesung was quick to see the true meaning in that expression.

doubt.

There was a suspicion that Daesung might be someone from heaven.

It was obvious that he was suspicious because he had items in his hands that had been taken by people from heaven.

If so, Melcanon would see Daesung as an enemy, but the truth was that was not the case at all, so there was nothing to worry about.

“I have been constantly fighting with those in heaven. These, which you said were the Akashic Records, are a trophy for him.”

“…Is that so?”

“The reason I want to reach the source is also closely related to trying to kill all the heavenly creatures.”

“I understand what you mean.”

The misunderstanding was resolved quickly as it was brief.

On the contrary, the words about killing heavenly beings seemed to have struck Melcanon in a good mood, and he grinned.

“The thing you are holding now, which they exploited, is an unfinished work that is about to be completed. Have you had any inconveniences in using it so far?”

“there was. a lot.”

When I scratched the itchy part, I started complaining without realizing it.

I felt like it was somehow lacking in subtle aspects and it was an unfinished work.

At this time, Melcanon suddenly cautiously held out his hand.

Are you really asking

for it to be returned?

Of course I have no intention of doing that.

However, Melcanon had different intentions than Daesung had in mind.

“Please leave that to me for a moment. “I think now I can fill in the remaining parts of the Akashic Records.”

“Are you going to make it into a finished product?”

“That’s right.”

“…I won’t refuse, but why would you go through all that trouble for me?”

“This is my reward for saving me from the Gishin tribe. Didn’t you also say that you would kill those from heaven? Then we have a common enemy. “The better weapons you have, the less we have to lose.”

Judging from his tone, it almost seemed like he regarded Daesung as an ally.

Of course, Daesung had no desire to sympathize, but for now, he just nodded, pretending to understand.

Daesung briefly added while handing the Void Rok to Melcanon.

“How long will it take? “If it takes too long, I’ll just say no.”

“It is a simple task of extracting and adding records stored in the northern library. “Please wait one hour.”

Melcanon put the Void in his arms and headed north.

Although something happened that was far from the original purpose, it was well worth the investment.

Information is power.

It can be a more powerful weapon than any other item skill.

If Heogongrok were to be reborn as a complete form and be able to foresee a truly effective future, there would be no greater achievement.

That moment when Daesung exercised his patience and lasted exactly one hour.

[The < Information Purchase > function in the ‘Shop Window’ has been significantly reorganized.] [

The name has been changed from ‘Void Records’ to ‘Akashic Records’.]

[Due to the < Information Purchase > reorganization, several interface changes have been made. Changes are expected to occur.]

[‘Akashic Records’ will provide users with more and more desperately needed information in the future.] Only

after the system message first appeared did Melcanon reappear.

Eventually, he handed the completed Akashic Record to Daesung.

On the outside, it doesn’t look much different from the days when it was empty, but what matters is the content.

Then Daesung suddenly remembered a question and asked.

“Can’t we interpret what the ‘Fountain of Creation’ says using the Akashic Records?”

If possible, Melcanon would have thought of completing the Akashic Records and going to the spring a long time ago.

But as expected, Melcanon shook his head.

“The mother body of the Akashic Records is the North Library. “Even the Akashic Records cannot provide information that is not in the North Library.”

“Hmm….”

“The Northern Library automatically records numerous events that occur throughout the universe. However, ‘the source of dimensions’ and ‘the fountain of all things’ are areas that span the abstract. “The Akashic Records cannot provide a clear answer because it is a non-standard problem that does not belong to either the real world or the terrestrial world.”

“In the end, there is no such thing as shortcuts.”

“Unfortunately, that seems to be the case.”

Now that it was like this, I had no choice but to think about it after encountering it myself.

Daesung said as he opened the Akashic Records to check its performance.

“First, guide me to the place where the ‘Fountain of Creation’ is located.”

“Would it be possible? Please follow me. “It’s not that far away.”

Daeseong followed Melcanon.

I followed along and slowly looked at the Akashic Records.

“I wish I had my son here at a time like this.”

“Why?”

Daesung responded with his gaze still fixed on the Akashic Records.

As I took a look, I noticed some pretty obvious changes.

“My son was a really bright guy. Compared to the talent he has, I’m really nothing. I must say that my son truly deserves the name ‘Great Sage’.”

“I guess my son understood what the ‘Fountain of All Things’ said.”

“There is nothing to understand or say.”

Melcanon looked back at Daesung with a bitter smile.

However, because Daesung was concentrating on the contents of the Akashic Records, he did not see Melcanon’s expression.

First, the five pieces of information provided, ranked from 1st to 5th, have been simplified into three types: [low-level information], [intermediate-level information], and [high-level information].

Daesung hoped that there would be more valuable information as it was simplified.

At this time, Melcanon continued.

“My son is very good at creating mysterious and powerful spells. “He was a genius among geniuses.”

“so.”

“Would you believe that among the things he created, there was even a spell that could instantly interpret any language?”

“….”

“Once upon a time, I interpreted Sam’s words as ‘Hekar Vision’ and obtained a new item. “The spell my son created was very helpful.”

Daeseong listened to Melcanon’s words with one ear and read the advanced information first.

“So… if I had that spell now, I would have been able to immediately understand what the ‘Fountain of Creation’ was saying. However, there is no book here that contains all the magic he has developed.”

“….”

Daesung was silent for a moment after checking the text written in the advanced information.

Then, he slowly rolled his eyes, glanced at Melcanon, and asked.

“It looks like you loved the book quite a bit.”

“Don’t even talk. I always wore it. As the father, I asked him to show me a little bit, but he hid it until the end. haha.”

“What happened to my son?”

“He died.”

A shadow appeared around Melcanon’s eyes.

“It was only after the frozen time ended that I realized my son was dead. “I immediately searched through the records in the northern library and tried to find the enemy who killed my only son… but as you know, I ended up getting beaten up by the Kishin tribe.”

“….”

“After you leave, I will first avenge my son. “While I am frozen in time, I will find out who dared kill my son. I will go and kill him in the most horrific way in the world.”

Melcanon’s face, which was said to have become younger thanks to anti-rohwandong, was distorted mercilessly.

The blood spurted out in my neck and I bit my lip so hard that blood flowed continuously.

“….”

Daesung lowered his head and read the advanced information written in the Akashic Records again.

[Advanced Information]

「Ramish, the founder of the power group < The Book >, is the biological son of Melcanon.」 「The

great sage Melcanon has a desire to kill the person who murdered his son and is tracking him down. .」

「If Melcanon is not killed in the near future, great direct damage will occur to the user.」

Ramish.

The name of a man who ruled the reigns before the second cataclysm and threatened the Earth.

It was also the name of the man who was killed by the hands of Daesung.
