The Player Hides His Past Chapter 466

Episode 466. This too….

Check the flashing message.

[Demon Hunter ‘Gabriel’ is watching you.]

I can guess why the Great Master is watching me.

‘Because I mentioned the exorcism.’

The object of exorcism should only be directed at the devil.

It was Akshan’s rule and the demon hunter’s common sense.

Isn’t this a natural thing?

‘It won’t have any effect anywhere else anyway, right?’

It was an exorcism ritual that had to be completed by inviting the devil into the ‘ritual’.

This means that there is no reason to use it or even mention it in the first place for targets that are not demons or possessed by demons.

‘Because Akshan values discipline.’

Of course, if I recite one by one the achievements of Rayman Shen, who is no different from the devil, you might understand my feelings. But is there any way to explain it so hesitatingly?

‘I’m always prone to spouting harsh words.’

In times like this, it was the snout that used the Granfell style of speaking.

That might have made me concerned.

He said that he had violated Akshan’s rules and that he had not triggered the Akshan civil war for no reason, and wondered if he would have an unexpected conflict with the great senior.

‘But I also know how to look at people.’

But the named demon hunter NPC.

Gabriel.

That much was an exception.

‘If someone I don’t know listens.’

Are you going to say that this is a gross exaggeration?

Why when Akshan was intact.

Demon monsters were not updated on the Arcana Continent.

‘It was an environment where you couldn’t make a name for yourself.’

In the first place, there were few devil-related requests.

The reason why Gabriel was able to become renowned as Akshan’s demon hunter in such a harsh environment was simple. Yes, Gabriel didn’t just hunt demons.

-“Did you hear that rumor? The murderers were found dead? Anyway, I feel relieved that the children who are no different from the devil are dead… Let’s see, you said it was Gabriel again, right? From Akshan!”

Gabriel was an excommunicated demon hunter from Akshan.

The reason for the excommunication was mentioned earlier.

We didn’t just hunt demons.

Because they also hunted those who were no different from demons.

Notorious criminal.

The devil’s puppet.

Even the most vicious characters from the underworld.

Gabriel hunted them according to his own judgment, not Yakshan’s rules. In the process, he received a considerable amount of bounty and gained a reputation commensurate with it.

『True Demon Hunter Gabriel』

An ironic title given to Gabriel, who hunted humans who were more evil than devils on a continent without devils. Of course, I remember the detailed story because I lived in Akshan.

I had quite a bit of admiration for it back then.

‘I thought that was the true essence of a demon hunter.’

…Of course, I was mistaken!

‘Anyway, thanks to you, I understand.’

Gabriel.

The moment you hear his name.

Even if you don’t hear the details from him.

I could guess why he was involved with the Shadow God.

‘The sparrow must have passed by the mill.’

Arcana Continent.

The worst criminal group, Shadow Mercenaries.

Gabriel must have gone after them by any means necessary.

‘In the process, I came into contact with the Shadow God…’

I may have made a contract with him.

How to reach the shadow god who is the culprit of everything.

Because I thought this was all there was to it.

As if responding to my guess.

Crash.

Gabriel took out a crossbow.

Then he aimed at the VIPs who were far away.

Gabriel added.

“I will take charge of them.”

This means to block VIPs who may intrude.

Then to me.

Does this mean you should take charge of that prototype coming down from the sky?

‘Between us.’

No answer was needed.

There is no point in saying this.

Demon hunters have something in common.

Yes.

It was all planned from the moment I opened the box Gabriel gave me. There was nothing inside the box, but that was just a simple confirmation of trust.

If so, now is the time to focus on the prototype in front of you.

‘A bad omen of eating God’.

The appearance of this guy with a grand name…

was similar to a whale.

A whale entangled in complex mechanical parts and wires.

What was more shocking than its appearance was the directing.

“The owner of the corridor was angry.”

The employees, who had always hidden their emotions, trembled in fear.

I bowed my head towards the bad omen.

Even the VIPs who followed their instincts were unable to join in the chaos.

‘You probably know it to some extent.’

If you get caught up in it, you will be swallowed up by a bad omen.

If you are swallowed, your very existence will be erased.

But no matter how convincing the atmosphere is,

‘I have no reason to be intimidated at all.’

If it is a bad omen, I have already overcome it.

That’s noble.

No, the same goes for Illusion Breaker.

-No matter how many times I break it, there is no end to it. It’s an illusion.

Excited.

The pulse of the illusion breaker is heard.

A sound of anticipation, not fear.

It is different from the second path that I took my first steps on a little while ago.

Again.

The first route, the Sword of Pride, has now become a very familiar route to me. I felt the sword power rising from the body beyond the Illusion Breaker’s sword body.

『Granfell’s talent was not limited to one thing. A clear mind is essential. His innate magical talent was such that he could imitate most types of magic just by seeing them. Furthermore, the potential of the body is comparable to that.』

Just by witnessing the sword technique for the first time.

Therefore, it is a talent that radiates sword energy.

What if experience adds to Granfell’s natural talent?

I could feel the results.

We have reached the state of true body and sword unity.

Of course, [natural enemy relationship] has not been activated.

My [Strength] and [Agility] stats total will not exceed 500. With those numbers, can I defeat the bad omen that drives fear even in the Shadow Corridor, where the appropriate level is close to 3,000?

‘Honestly, I have no confidence.’

But I know because I watched. The reason why Harkon, who is only level 600, can compete against high-level monsters approaching level 800-1000.

[※Caution: Vitality decreases rapidly.]

Sword energy.

It is like a fire that burns with its own vitality.

In that sense, I am grateful to the World Tree again.

[The blessing of the first world tree rejects ‘exhaustion’.]

[The blessing of the first world tree rejects ‘fainting’.]

[The blessing of the first world tree rejects ‘weakness’.]….

[ Gwicheol, a [Legendary] level item. To become one with him, my physical body must still be extremely poor. As you can see, the reason we can endure despite this is in addition to the blessings of the World Tree.

Unique stats achieved through rigorous training.

[Persistence is converted into strength.]

It was because [tenacity] was there.

So I could still stay upright.

I could see the ‘bad omen of eating God’ descending.

Voices from concerned employees.

“No way?”

“This is ridiculous…!”

“Do you really want to fight that thing? It may be an irreversible choice. Aren’t you different from other distinguished guests, Grandfell Claudius Arpheus Romeo?”

Are you worried that my bounty will evaporate, not me?

‘It’s so different on the outside and the inside that it’s disappointing.’

Thanks to that, it was the moment when I was about to swing the Illusion Breaker without paying attention. Suddenly, a message appeared above the head of the ‘god-eating bad omen’ guy.

[Current bounty: 100 karma]

Because there are no exceptions to the rule.

Is there a bounty on this guy too?

Even a great guy like that only has 100 karma.

‘For me…’

Why is there a bounty of 1000 karma, ten times more than that ridiculous guy? It was the moment when I suppressed my doubts.

Wow.

The prototype bad omen howled. I didn’t have the ability to hear the animal’s cries and guess its intentions, but I was able to tell that it had no hostility.

It’s the same when you look at what he’s doing now.

Move that huge body carefully.

He approached me and bowed his head as if to show respect.

It goes without saying, but if it were me, I wouldn’t have let my guard down.

Have you forgotten the concept of the Shadow Corridor?

First of all, the owner is different on the outside and inside.

I can guess the thickness of the mask just by looking at the fact that they sent an invitation and waited patiently even though they hated me so much.

Aren’t the employees just like their masters, brandishing daggers and pretending not to notice or trying to poison people while pretending to treat them well?…

‘Is it any different from a prototype?’

Moreover, the prototype is Rayman Shen.

This guy is a shadow god.

Or, it was evidence that it was related to the divine world.

Yes, this is Rayman Shen, whose true intentions no one can guess.

As you can see, there were ample reasons for distrust.

[‘Obedience’ occurs to the bad omen that swallowed God.]

The message that does not lie was shining. It was against the pride of a nobleman to take the life of an enemy who had already broken his heart and had no will to fight.

Crash.

“You are wiser than your master.”

I spoke generously and took the Illusion Breaker.

“I accept your submission.”

Then there was a buzz around.

“You surrendered…?”

“That can’t be possible.”

“no. Maybe it’s His will…!”

By that, you’re talking about a shadow god, right?

‘Maybe so.’

I looked at the quest window.

[Main Quest: Revealing the Dark Side]

The Arcana continent collapsed and a pantheon was opened. However, the Shadow God’s incomplete ‘status’ became the reason he could not enter the pantheon. From now on, the Shadow God will use any means necessary to advance his status.

-Encounter the Shadow God on the battlefield of proof. (In progress)

What the Shadow God wants is clear.

rise in rank.

I don’t think that will happen, but if I get swallowed up by a bad omen.

Because you will never be able to enter the pantheon.

‘No matter what I do.’

Even if it means breaking the rules.

I guess there’s nothing they can do about me.

As if to prove my words.

The bad omen stuck its head out more aggressively towards me.

[You have acquired permission to board the prototype ‘God-Swept Bad Omen’. ‘The bad omen who swallowed a god’ is the only being that can freely enter and exit the third level of the Shadow Corridor.]

Indeed.

‘Do you think you want to meet me as soon as possible?’

Then you are caught in our plan.

Gabriel said, tucking the crossbow into his belt.

“You were right.”

As I said, everything went according to plan.

The moment when Gabriel’s rules are violated.

I heard a story about a whale that appears, and I recognized it right away thanks to the description of its unusual appearance. This means that he figured out that the whale was Rayman Shen’s prototype.

‘Well, I didn’t plan on making you obey.’

How was it possible to come up with such a plan in that short conversation?

Probably because they both have the same purpose.

Because what both I and Gabriel were targeting was the Shadow God.

Jerk.

Gabriel climbed on top of the bad omen first. It seems that the evil omen had no intention of burning Gabriel as well, but the evil omen’s huge mouth opened and made a strange sound.

“Be formal.”

Its size is putting its size to shame.

When I lightly scolded him, he became intimidated and kept his mouth shut.

Cat Topju was fine even when he heard derogatory words from me.

‘It doesn’t shed any hair and it’s better than a cat.’

Wow.

The bad omen that carried me and Gabriel seemed to have completed its business.

Lots and lots of things.

A bad omen that goes backwards through the corridor while avoiding the hanging chandelier.

The speed was fierce.

[Achievement: Riding the dragon, the king of all things]

[Effect: Mastery for all mounts increases to maximum]

[Duration: Permanent]

‘If I didn’t have the achievement, I would have fallen several times.’

Still, I can somehow evaluate the ride quality.

It was a moment of renewed relief.

Gabriel looked around and opened his mouth.

“It is not easy to go up the corridor with both feet. Even if we exclude the VIP’s bounty hunting, the barrier in the middle layer separates the owner’s territory from the VIP’s territory.”

“I am familiar with barriers.”

…It’s not wrong.

Because the cracks in reality are similar to barriers.

A feeling of needless pride rose up in my throat, but I desperately held it back.

It’s been a while since I tried to explain the crack.

After there was an appropriate amount of silence, Gabriel continued.

“I guess I’m used to it. The name of the corridor’s middle layer barrier is ‘Mirror that does not reflect shadows.’ As the name suggests, it is a space made up of mirrors on all sides. “Oh, we’re getting closer.”

As I followed Gabriel’s gaze, I saw something that looked like a really huge barrier blocking my path.

But it wasn’t a problem. As written in the message, the bad omen freely broke through the barrier.

however.

“Well then, does our companionship end here?”

Was it because of my overly upright posture?

Or was it because of the aftereffects of the Shin Geomhap Day?

If not at all, is it because we put too much faith in the name Akshan?

thud.

I stumbled with a sudden shock.

At the same time.

Above the bad omen.

Without much resistance.
