The Player Hides His Past Chapter 542

Episode 542 Unchanging beings (2)

Why are demon-type monsters so difficult?

‘In the first place, people who have no bottom or end are scarier.’

This is because, as Granfell said, he cannot understand the topic.

Ironically, thanks to this, the devil has always been able to unleash his evil intentions. However, there is someone who can make even such demon-type monsters tremble with fear, and that is their natural enemy, the demon hunter.

I thought calmly.

‘Absolute strength is meaningless in the face of the devil.’

You don’t have to go far to see the devil worshipers hiding in the magic tower, right? Do you think those who were called senior wizards were afraid when they saw demons that were neither great evil nor high-ranking demons?

The voice of Fire Dragon Karimzeba comes to mind.

-“If you can reach the true truth…!”

Just without even knowing it.

You must be possessed by the devil.

Because devils are cunning and malicious guys.

In that sense, for the first time in a while, I shrugged my shoulders in front of Gran Fell.

‘If only I hadn’t chosen the Demon Hunter.’

Even if it’s you, Granfell.

It must not have been easy to deal with the devil.

I’m definitely not exaggerating, are you?

As you can see, they are the same even in hell.

[Hell’s Imp: Lv.200]

Regardless of the number, its strength was excessive.

The perceived level was similar to mobs that were at least level 1000 or higher. Besides, like a devil who couldn’t understand the subject, he wasn’t intimidated by seeing my magical power, which was of a completely different level.

But it wasn’t just the devil that was consistent.

sparkle.

Blinking quest message.

[Class Quest: Are we still evil?]

I ask you, Akshan. We who became devils and fell into hell to hunt devils. Are we still devils who hunted devils even after falling into hell?

-Encounter the demon hunters of hell. (Success)

With a bang.

The sound of a crossbow being loaded.

“Heeeeeeeek?!”

The faces of the imps filled with fear make me realize.

“It’s been a while. Akshan my comrades.”

Hell’s demon hunter.

The devil’s natural enemy has appeared here.

Of course, there was no answer.

‘You really don’t have affection like anyone else.’

Still, I followed you all the way to hell, so isn’t it okay to just say hello? I was a little disappointed, but since when did Akshan and I exchange friendly greetings?

At my words, Kinver canceled [Stealth].

“If it’s that comrade in arms, it’s impossible for him to say that the false rumor was true…?!”

Comrade Akshan.

I thought he noticed what I was saying to myself.

My class is [Demon Hunter].

‘Yes, it was true. That rumor.’

But why are you saying this so strangely? Kinver?

‘Are there any other rumors besides this?’

Could it be that Kinver made a mistake without my knowledge?

‘…It’s not just one or two false rumors, I can’t even guess.’

It was a moment when I thought seriously.

Elsidore’s voice was heard.

“I can’t believe it.”

Well, if you look at it from a blood elf’s perspective, it would be surprising.

“They were truly human.”

In fact, it was a sight that I could not get used to, having witnessed the powerlessness of Akshan seniors in hell several times. In addition to [Persistence], [Natural Relationship] is activated, but that thing is still a demon hunter.

“Please save me!!!”

“I don’t want to die again!!”

“Ughhhhh!!”

Truly overwhelming.

He was not intimidated by my magic or Elsidor’s sword.

A group of imps start running in fear.

‘It is a hell where dead beings fall.’

What that means is simple.

‘Actually, it’s meaningless to kill or be killed.’

However, our seniors are the embodiment of [persistence].

Yes, seniors, hunting down demons may be meaningless in some ways.

It continued even in hell.

‘Enough to make even the devil of hell grasp the subject.’

Of course, this was the end of the battle.

Once again, the entire group of imps is hunted.

Burning brightly in the green flames of hell.

Lorentzk spoke quietly.

“Is it an endless treadmill? It’s literally a road to hell.”

I think so too.

Akshan seniors have been continuing their never-ending demon hunt in a hell from which no one can escape, so to speak in Granfell style.

‘I guess it’s because it’s your pride.’

There was no exhilaration of victory.

The emotions flowing through the silence…

should I really describe them as reverent?

‘…Damn, I never thought the day would come when that outfit would look cool again.’

It’s the first time since I was in my second year of middle school.

Of course, that’s not what’s important.

The quest goal was blinking before my eyes.

Let’s see. Now there’s only one choice left.

I looked at the flashing message.

-Enter hell. (Success)

Acknowledge Akshan of Hell. (Optional)

Reject Akshan of Hell. (Optional)

For your information, it’s not my opinion that’s important.

That was Granfell’s opinion.

I looked inside to see what Granfell had in mind.

‘…Actually, I’m still not sure.’

I dare to assure you that there is no one in reality or on the Arcana continent who knows you better than me. But I still don’t know what’s inside you.

‘If it’s the Granfell I know.’

And if it’s Granfell, which the vengeful spirits we encountered a little while ago know, they will definitely recognize the demon hunters of Hell. No, I wouldn’t go beyond acknowledging it and praise it, saying I’m proud of it.

‘Very shamelessly.’

Because we were the survivors of Akshan and became the leaders of Akshan.

But like I said, I wasn’t sure. [Darkening] Because the other side of Granfell that I witnessed during the runaway state of [Children alone in the world] remained clearly in my memory.

It was then.

Again.

…Really, regardless of my concerns, you are unstoppable? My feet started moving towards Akshan seniors. But my lips never fell.

Crash.

Hell’s demon hunter.

Because they loaded their crossbows at me.

Elsidore’s urgent voice is heard.

“It’s dangerous!”

It was Elsidor who witnessed the power of the demon hunters in Hell. Since those people were ready to attack me, it was natural that his voice became extremely sharp.

But it’s okay, Elsidor.

‘Do you think I’ll be seeing those guys for a day or two?’

The Akshan style of communication is in no way inferior to the Granfell style of speaking.

I am Lee Ho-yeol.

To put it bluntly, even if my seniors held a silver sword to the back of my neck, I wouldn’t have been scared at all, right?

‘When I think about the first time I set foot in Akshan…’

The Akshan base was on a distant cliff. I barely managed to climb up the cliff, but they kicked me when the time limit had expired, which was an Akshan-style welcome greeting.

furthermore.

‘No matter how great you are, you’re still a demon hunter after all?’

What I’m saying is that the force mentioned earlier is only effective when [Natural Enemy Relationship] is activated.

Am I right, seniors?

As I look at them without blinking, the seniors from hell speak.

“Until I face the truth.”

As expected, it was clearly Yakshan.

“You will not understand us.”

Blinking vision.

I acknowledge Akshan of Hell. (Not selectable)

Reject Akshan of Hell. (Cannot be selected)

I will first apologize, Granfell.

‘I wondered if there was a person in the world with as many secrets as you.’

Those guys are no joke, really!

That I couldn’t face any truth.

I’m not sure if it even blocks the quest selection.

It was fortunate.

“But if you are ready to face it, go ahead.”

Our seniors.

Even though you speak harshly.

Because you opened the way to the third gateway.

I suddenly remembered the pleas of the vengeful spirits.

-“You must not go…! Beyond that door, even more painful trials and truths await the young matriarch!”

Painful trials and truth.

At the time, I thought it was just something they said.

You might want to prepare for this.

Because it seemed like there was a chance in this hell to encounter something very important that had to be addressed. But it was something completely unexpected.

…what.

The shoes that were always proud did not move. No matter how hard I tried to move forward, I was unable to move forward. Still, I was able to recognize it because it was my body.

…Granfell?

I don’t even know why.

Gran Fell did not allow me to walk.

Wait a minute, you’re saying something different, right?

‘I pretended to be cool like the head of the family.’

The opportunity to face the damn truth was just around the corner.

Why does it suddenly stop?

My companions seemed quite surprised by my silence.

Kinver cautiously calls me.

“Chief Commander…?”

It was the demon hunters of hell who spoke on behalf of me, who was still silent. Crash. The seniors said as they put down their raised crossbows.

“I guess I still need time.”

I am Lee Ho-yeol.

More than anything else at this moment.

I was most afraid of the generous attitude of my seniors.

“I understand.”

So much so that those bloodless and tearless people can understand.

So much so that even the Grand Fell of the world hesitated.

Does this mean that the truth waiting for me at the third gateway is enormous?

‘What.’

It was a moment when I was shocked.

Finally, the words fell out.

Granfell spat out.

“Unfortunately.”

I could guess it from the first word. You really

haven’t changed

even in this situation, have you, Granfell?

“Something more urgent than facing the truth has come up.”

Hey, anyway, that’s not an excuse!!

‘There’s nothing urgent, right?’

Different from usual.

It was a hell that I entered with only a week to prepare.

Although it may only be a week to others, it was a ‘whopping’ week to Granfell.

‘I lost a few days because of Paimon…’

On the day of entry, I was met by my mom, dad, and even the odd person.

Don’t worry, I’ll go to hell.

It was a hell that I entered after even going to confession!

however.

Grumbling.

Regardless of my questions, the flames of hell were already engulfing me. Lorentzk quickly activated the [Hell’s Torch] effect.

[Torch of Hell]

[Grade: Epic]

[Restriction: Living]

[Effect: Causes retrograde movement in Hell.]

[Description: A torch that lights up Hell. The effect is to drive out. The living who cannot set foot in hell go to reality, and the dead who cannot escape from hell go deep into hell….]

‘It feels urgent for some reason.’

There was no smile on Lorentzk’s face.

I think this is cause for unnecessary concern.

Perhaps my silence at the last moment had an effect.

‘by the way.’

Rust color.

In the flames of hell.

I can feel my seniors looking at me.

Looking at their eyes, I thought as if I was making excuses.

‘…First, we will come to an agreement between ourselves.’

So don’t think about skipping it, Granfell.

Starting with [Six-pointed Brooch].

They even made excuses and retreated from the opportunity to face the truth.

‘For the first time in a while, I can give some strength to my shoulders in front of you.’

I, Lee Ho-yeol, am a full-fledged adult and member of society.

It was the moment when I decided to nag Granfell a little.

My vision began to change suddenly.

And it was now.

reality.

Seoul, the land of strangeness.

As soon as you return, any missed messages will be updated.

and.

‘…!’

With those messages, I had no choice but to retreat from Granfell once again. Damn, I never thought something more urgent than facing the truth would really happen.

“Pantheon.”

Various emotions overlap and overlap.

Is it thanks to you?

My voice became cold and subdued.

“The price for turning away will be very heavy.”
