Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell Chapter 150

The Titans, who were full of energy, obediently guided Daesung to the place where the ‘representative’ was.

They secretly glanced at Daesung’s waist with fearful eyes.

“….”

There, a bag containing ‘something’ was swaying in sync with Daesung’s steps.

So Daeseong continued to walk through the vast wilderness for hours, guided by the Titans.

‘I don’t have that much time.’

He tried to estimate how much time had passed since he assimilated into Ugorik’s body.

While I was possessed by the Titan’s body, no system messages appeared.

So I had no choice but to judge the flow of time with pure intuition.

‘It must have been about half a day.’

Rainfall is a conclusion based on changes in the angle of the sun and wind direction.

After 24 hours, < Companion of Death > is lifted and you must leave this body.

If you don’t allocate your time carefully, things will get complicated.

“Here it is.”

The Titan, who was at the forefront of the group, trembled and stepped aside.

While he was organizing his thoughts, Daesung had already arrived in front of the huge fortress.

A castle carved into the slope of a canyon at the end of a plain.

In the Atlas, this vast structure is briefly called ‘Geoseong (巨城)’.

However, in Daeseong’s eyes, it seemed closer to a ‘temple’ where ceremonies such as worship were performed rather than a castle.

“We have nothing to see, so let’s just get out of here.”

“I’m saying this out of anger, but please be polite in front of the ‘representative.’”

“If he gets angry, even if it’s you, there’s no answer.”

The Titans retreated one by one, looking anxious.

Daesung just stood blankly in front of the tightly closed stone door.

Coogugung-.

And soon the stone gate rose upward, spewing out a cloud of dust.

[Please come in.]

A low tone flowed coolly from the dark passage extending beyond the door.

Daesung walked through the passage with strides.

At every corner he passed, a gentle flame rose from a brazier installed on the wall.

As soon as I reached the end of the passage, I saw the white-haired Titan kneeling with his back exposed.

‘Giriak, the representative of Atlas.’

It was a back view that Ugorick had seen in passing in his memories.

And in his memory, Ugorick was in awe and fear of that back sight.

That would be the same for all Titans, not just Ugorick.

However, Daesung did not bow down in front of the deputy like other Titans.

Rather, he straightened his back and tried to exhale the scent of blood that had clung to his body.

“You tried to enter the castle, but you never took a bath. “If you have anything to say, clean up your body first and then come back.”

As Giriak spoke briefly, the candles on the altar swayed slightly.

It was still an emotionless tone, but just hearing it made all five senses of my body tingle as if I had been pricked by a thorn.

‘It’s a word.’

It is very rare, even for dragons, to utter words containing coercive force.

Moreover, even though Giriak is a race that is not a dragon, he used words.

This was the part where I could understand why Ugorick was afraid of that old Titan.

‘It doesn’t work on the dead anyway.’

The dead, alienated from the providence of this world, are free from the bondage of words.

Therefore, Daeseong was able to ignore Giriak’s command to wash his body and come back.

“What are you doing?”

It was only when Giriak realized that words did not work that he began to show interest.

When he turned around, Giriak’s face was revealed to be missing a single left eye.

“No one but someone with reasonable mental strength would be able to go against my words.”

“Put my name on the list of candidates for titanomachia’s ascendant.”

“….”

Giriak, who was speechless for a moment, looked intently at Daesung’s face.

He spoke informally as if it was so obvious that I was momentarily dumbfounded.

And at this point, Daesung, who had already experienced a lot of what kind of lines would come out, spoke like a player.

“A Titan from the southern region. The name is Ray. “You don’t have to ask who it is.”

“….”

It wasn’t easy to open the conversation.

Normally, I would have killed him myself out of annoyance or made him take his own life with words.

But I couldn’t do that now.

The spirit flowing out of the Titan in front of you is too much to dismiss as just a psychopath with a headache.

‘This guy just refused my orders.’

That fact alone makes you scratch your beard and narrow your eyes.

Giriak tried to talk while hiding his interest.

“Did you say you wanted to run for Ascendant? Sorry, but all candidates are full. “I thought you knew… but it seems the news is late in the southern region.”

Ascendant.

It was a word that meant a warrior who sacrificed his soul to revive Hecaton Kale, the giant of chaos.

Giving up one’s soul means death.

However, many Titans decided to become ascendants.

This is because simple death and great sacrifice are distinguished differently.

“It is not that I do not know the hearts of the Titans, including you, who want to burn their bodies. But discipline is discipline. “Only one person from each of the four directions can run for ascendancy.”

“I don’t think so.”

“No matter how hard I try-.”

Tuk!

A sack was thrown in front of Giriak, who was about to say it was no use.

It was a sack with red blood seeping out from its surface.

“….”

Giriak glanced at Daesung’s face, then untied the string and confirmed the identity of what was inside the bag.

What was in the bag was Bansor’s head that had been turned into mush.

It was so miserably crushed that even Giriak was unrecognizable for a moment.

Daesung spoke to Giriak, who could not take his eyes off the inside of the bag.

“As you can see, one candidate position is empty. Isn’t there a gentlemanly rule that says you shouldn’t kill a candidate and rob him of his position?”

“No, Bansor… did you kill Bansor?”

“Can’t you see these things on my body?”

Daesung spread his arms as if to show off his body covered in blood.

Only then did Giriak realize that the smell of blood that had strangely tickled his nose earlier was Bansor’s.

Giriak smiled and stared at the Titan in front of him.

‘Where on earth did this guy suddenly pop out?’

Bansor Royman Makleon Youd.

These four strongmen who control all four sides of Atlas did not suddenly gain hegemony from the beginning.

From the beginning, they had a clue.

The ‘talent’ that gave us the belief that he would become a warrior who would leave his mark in history was already visible from childhood.

But what on earth is this Titan called ‘Ray’?

Regardless of whether you have Ssaksu or not, this is my first time hearing the name itself.

It must have meant that he lived without being noticed among the crowd.

The fact that he didn’t stand out means he wasn’t particularly outstanding, but that guy suddenly exposed the head of a strong man in the east.

‘It’s like he fell from the sky.’

Yes, what does it matter whether you notice it early on or not?

This Titan named Ray was probably hiding his skills on purpose and living his life looking for opportunities.

That’s probably why that fierce personality hasn’t been revealed to the outside world until now.

snake.

That expression, which was extremely unsuitable for the aggressive Titan, was infinitely suitable for the Titan named Ray.

“Did you say Ray?”

What reason would there be to reject a warrior who is trying to seize the opportunity?

Giriak’s eyes lit up brightly and the corners of his mouth turned up in interest.

“I will engrave your name on the new list of candidates for the Ascendant.”

***

-You’d better hurry.

Giriak added this:

‘To become an ascendant, you must pass two trials.’

One is a wave.

One was an ordeal named Tsunami.

And other candidates have already overcome the wave of trials.

In other words, Daesung has to become a latecomer and surpass them.

Due to its structure, the Trial of the Waves can be started on the same day and finished on the same day.

In order to narrow the distance gap even a little, it would have been best to face the ordeal of the waves today.

But

– I’ll do it tomorrow morning.

-Do whatever you want. However, if you delay, killing Bansor will not be worth it.

Daesung deliberately delayed it by a day.

There is no grand reason.

‘It’s already getting close to night.’

Although it is said that the trial of the waves can be completed in one day, there was not much time given to Daesung until the day was over.

If < Companion of Death > ends while you are going through the ordeal, you will ruin your work.

“I will guide you to the place where Bar Bansor stayed. For your information, since I am a person who is far from ‘clean’, there may be a bit of a musty smell…”

“It is not necessary.”

Titan, who was trying to guide me to a hut whose original owner had lost its owner, scratched the back of his head awkwardly and left.

I don’t need a place to sleep right away.

Daesung walked diligently and headed to the place where his original body was.

At that time, I saw the original body in the lotus position not far away.

[< Companion of Death > ends.]

[Returns to original body.] As my

vision, which had been briefly immersed in darkness, became bright, the system window blocked my view.

I could feel my entire body that my center of gravity had clearly changed.

“You’re back.”

Melcanon, who stood firmly in his place like a stone statue next to him, opened his mouth.

As ordered, he stood by Daesung’s side without paying attention.

“Has anything happened so far?”

“An oblivious hawk tried to sit on the monarch’s head, so I showed him some spicy food.”

After saying that, Melcanon reached into his robe, rummaged through it, and immediately pulled out a falcon with a broken neck.

“A lot of time has passed, but aren’t you hungry? “If it’s a simple dish, I know how to cook it.”

“I’ll do that later.”

Daesung released his cross-legged posture and stood up.

And then he walked towards Ugorick, who was standing a little distance away.

‘You have to wait five hours before you can use < Companion of Death > again.’

You can perform the assimilation again when it gets closer to the entrance time of the trial that you told Giriak about.

There is plenty of time.

In the meantime, Daesung decided to do one ‘task’ to pass the ordeal perfectly.

***

The morning sun brightened.

Daesung, who once again possessed the body of a Titan, entered the castle and met Giriak.

But for some reason, there were three more people added than yesterday.

“This guy defeated Bansor? her! Nonsense.”

“I feel like something was taken from me. “He was an enemy I would have to kill someday.”

“Does the fact that we come now and tackle the waves first imply that we are viewed as water?”

Each was a one-eyed Titan, a Titan whose body was made of ice, and a Titan who wore the white bones of a dragon as a mask.

Those aspects were also seen in Ugoric’s memories.

‘Strong men in all directions.’

In other words, they were candidates who claimed to become ascendants at the Easter Festival.

The Ice Wall Titan is named Jud, the One-Eyed Titan is named Royman, and the Masked Titan is named Makleon.

Although Daesung doesn’t even remember their names.

“They said they came after hearing that you defeated Bansor.”

Giriak explained the situation.

Did the rumor that Bansor was killed stimulate their desire to win?

They were all glaring at Daesung, snorting vigorously like a locomotive heating up its engine.

At this time, the one-eyed Titan Royman blinked his huge eyes and came closer and thrust his face in.

“I heard you’re from the southern region? “I have a very tight grip on it.”

“….”

“But why? I am seeing your face for the first time now. “If you’re from the south, there’s no way I wouldn’t recognize your top name.”

It has only one eye and is so large that it takes up most of the face.

So it wasn’t that difficult to guess through that single eye what Royman was thinking right now.

doubt.

Regardless of whether or not he is from the South, there are doubts about whether he is truly a Titan.

Of course, there is no need to reply.

Daesung pushed Royman’s shoulder and approached the altar.

“You’re calmer than I thought, huh? If it had been Bansor, he would have been furious and punched me by now. You deserved to die, Bansor. I died from something like that, cancer! “A guy like that deserves to die!”

Behind him, Royman made a snickering sound and laughed openly.

Daesung listened for a moment, pricking his ears as if savoring the sound of laughter.

Kiriak, who looked like he was trying to suppress his anger, asked while carefully observing Daesung’s behavior.

“so. Do you want to do it or not?”

“would.”

As soon as he received the answer, Giriak pointed to a mural carved on the old, shabby wall of the altar.

At the center of the mural depicting the majesty of Hecaton Kale, who leads the Titan army, was a round eye like a bead.

Daesung suddenly saw Giriak’s black left eyelid.

Giriak’s explanation soon followed.

“Put your hand on that eyeball. Then you will be able to move to the arena where the ordeal begins.”

“It’s simple.”

“The standard for passing the test is at least 15 times.”

“Fifteen times?”

“You will find out when you go in.”

Daesung nodded and looked at the mural again.

I soon took a step back.

Towards the back, not towards the mural.

“huh?”

Giriarch and the strong men in all directions tilted their heads and looked at Daeseong.

Soon Daesung stood in front of Royman.

Royman asked, opening and closing his large eyelids.

“What should I say-.”

bang-!

The fist swung like a flash of light and struck Royman’s single eye.

It hit so hard that dust fell from the ceiling in the aftermath.

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!!

Royman struggled, clutching his bloodshot eye from the intense pain.

Daesung said, lightly shaking his blood-soaked fist.

“Bansor said this?”

“Ugh! my eyes! My Nuun! 이 빌어먹을 망할 개새끼가! Ugh…!”

“I guess Bansor had a noble personality. If it had been my way, he would have ripped out his eyeballs.”

While Royman didn’t know what to do, Daesung touched the eyeball of the mural.

Then, his large body became a dot, as if submerged in a black hole, and was sucked into the mural.

Royman later became enraged, glaring at the mural.

“I swear to the God of Chaos that if that bastard comes out, I will kill him!”
