NOVEL WEB Chapter 256 - Transcendent Madman (3)
According to Seo-joon, fraud and negotiation were not very different.
If fraud is packaging a loss as if it were a gain.
Negotiations were nothing more than packaging as if it was not a loss.
A rare swindler and a born negotiator.
The difference between the two could actually be said to be a piece of paper.
[Stop talking nonsense!]
Arthur let out a scream close to screaming.
The space reverberated as if the sound contained magic.
And as if he wants to see all the crazy people in the world.
Even the impression was distorted.
< ...... Um? Ah? >
Maybe because of that, the mentor who had lost his mind woke up in a fright.
Before long, he rubbed his eyes and half-raised himself.
Then he looked around with a hazy expression.
< Where am I? Who is this? >
He started repeating his gibberish again.
[One wonder. What kind of nonsense!!!]
Arthur was consistent with the attitude that it was absolutely impossible.
what honestly
It wasn't that I couldn't understand Arthur's feelings.
It's 1 word.
It was a whopping 9999 trillion and needed 1 trillion more.
1 quart (10000000000000000).
Is this really money that can exist in reality?
Of course, as Seo-jun knew, the value of the earth dimension was about 545 gyeong 2500 trillion won.
Of course, it wouldn't fit exactly, but the total causality of the earth dimension was about 545 views.
1 case out of 545 is about 0.2%.
It wasn't a very large percentage, but the problem was somewhat unreasonable to measure with just one sword.
It wasn't just crazy, it was insane.
‘for a moment. Then, how much is the director's lecture?'
Then a thought suddenly came to my mind.
Irina's lectures did not exist at the Transcendent Academy.
The reason was that the burden of cause and effect far exceeded the level that the dimension could handle.
Because of that, the observer blocked Irina's lecture.
In other words, it means that the causal effects of Irina's river are more distant than the causal effects of the dimension.
to say this again.
‘At least 545 views...?'
does this make sense?
Seo-joon felt like he was going crazy for a moment.
It boasted of insane difficulty and power, but... no matter how.
It seemed that the reason why I was able to learn Irina's senses was due to luck.
Had it not been for the observer's intention in the first place, Seo-joon could not have gone to the transcendent academy.
anyway.
1 Gyeong was that much crazy money.
That's why Arthur was absurd.
What kind of being in the world demands the cause and effect of the first scene?
It was an improbable cause and effect.
Of course, Arthur couldn't pay 1 kyung.
I couldn't afford to pay!
So, the 1st view would be just a call.
It will be part of calling hard at the beginning when negotiating.
Negotiations will be carried out step by step from now on.
“I can’t help it if you don’t like it.”
Seojun put the Excalibur he was holding back into the kibisis.
It seems that there is really no regret in the process.
He didn't show the slightest hesitation.
Really...
you were thinking of getting the 1st prize?
[...]
Arthur was momentarily at a loss for words.
he's crazy
That guy was definitely crazy!
Arthur just went crazy.
I wanted to believe it was a lie.
No, it had to be a lie.
“Then see you next time.”
However, Seojun seemed to have no intention of selling anything other than the first scene!
At this point, it was none other than Arthur who was getting impatient.
Can not be done.
Excalibur could not be handed over to auction like this.
Arthur exclaimed earnestly.
[Anyway, isn't the first scene too much! Even if I put it on the auction house, I can't get a 1st view!]
Please, please, as if asking me to think again.
There was a certain desperation on Arthur's face.
The knight Excalibur is the same as Arthur's identity.
It was a natural reaction when it was said that such things were not in the hands of others and were going to be auctioned off.
however.
“It is not. One kyeong is a lot of money, but considering Excalibur, it’s not money you can’t get.”
Seojun had no intention of giving up!
“Besides, considering that my dimension almost perished because the instructor handed over this sword...”
Arthur had nothing to say.
Even though the 1st scene was a transcendent cause and effect,
considering Excalibur and what Seo-joon said just now...
“And you probably have the causal effects you received while handing over Excalibur. Are you sure you used them all?”
[That's that...!]
Arthur trembled as if he had been hit.
What... I didn't have anything to refute.
Arthur stood there blankly, as if he had been stuck there.
Seeing Arthur like that, Seo-joon smiled slightly inwardly.
actually.
Seo-jun also knew that Arthur would not be able to handle the first scene.
No matter how transcendent, there is a limit.
That's why Seo-joon didn't think that he would be able to get the full amount of money.
It would be nice if I could get it... but the chance of that was low.
Nevertheless, the reason why Seojun called the money called 1st Gyeong.
[Other than that, can't it be replaced with something other than causation? I'll do anything for you! Round table swordsmanship? Aura of the Round Table? Whatever you ask me to teach you, I will teach you! So please cut it down!]
It was caught.
Seojun smiled inwardly.
However, Seo-joon did not answer right away.
Pretending to be lost in thought, he slightly lowered his gaze.
“Hmm…”
A little time passed like that.
“If you say that much… I can give you a discount if you answer just one question well.”
[What is it! Just talk!!]
Arthur shouted as if he would answer anything.
It wasn't a joke, but even if he told me to talk about Merlin's disgrace, he didn't want to say it.
Seo-joon asked Arthur right away.
“Who are you?”
[What...?]
Arthur began to panic a little that he didn't understand the question.
Seojun met Arthur's eyes and asked calmly.
“The existence that the instructor handed over to Excalibur. Who are you?”
[...]
Arthur seemed momentarily speechless.
I shut my mouth tightly.
Just a moment ago, the sign that he was going to say anything had disappeared.
avoidance gaze.
[That... I can't answer that.]
Arthur answered softly.
Seeing Arthur like that, Seo-joon couldn't hide his puzzled feelings.
Who is the great voice?
Could it be that he can't reveal his identity until he gives up Excalibur?
Or did he put some restrictions on identity?
what.
“I can’t help it if you don’t like it.”
It wasn't something Seojun had to consider.
Seojun turned his back without hesitation.
And seeing Seo-joon like that, Arthur was dazed.
He would usually ask why.
why can't you tell
I was bound to ask why that was the case.
Isn't it normal to catch something?
But what
“Mentor. Please put this on the auction house.”
Seo-joon was really about to leave!
Arthur was starting to get very nervous.
Excalibur, lying in the auction house, flickered in front of my eyes.
They scream for their identity to be taken away right in front of their noses.
Can not be done.
It should never be!
Arthur's whole body's mana exploded.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung...!
A tremendous force erupted around Arthur.
The power of a transcendent who entered the ranks of grand sword masters.
That terrible life went to Seo-joon.
Even though there are causal restrictions,
it is not a force that ordinary beginners can handle.
Yes, if you are a ‘normal' freshman.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!!
For an instant, a terrible magic power burst out around Seo-jun.
Eventually, it engulfed the space around it and
began pushing back Arthur's power!
[What the hell...!]
Arthur exclaimed involuntarily.
how. Can you push your own power!
Seo-joon, who was looking at him, seemed completely unconcerned.
No, beyond nothing.
‘Overwhelmed...?'
I?
No matter how causal restrictions were placed on it, it was a transcendental person.
A transcendent with a vast gap from a beginner.
But what...
Arthur couldn't believe it at all. I even thought that
if I fought in the current state with the restrictions of cause and effect...
I might lose.
Arthur eventually gained momentum.
Accordingly, Seo-jun also gained momentum.
And as if nothing had happened.
“Then I'll see you next time if I have a chance, Instructor.”
Seojun calmly greeted Arthur.
Then, without hesitation, he started to leave.
Even with force... you can't intimidate.
confused mind.
In Arthur's head, the two options began to fight fiercely.
And in that desperate conflict.
[Wait a minute!]
Arthur had no choice but to make a choice.
stop.
At Arthur's cry, Seo-joon's steps came to a halt.
As I slowly turned my back, Arthur's expression, as if the world had been lost, came into view.
Seojun asked Arthur.
“What are you doing?”
Arthur did not immediately answer Seo-jun's question.
It seems to still be troubling.
It was evident that he was quite hesitant.
But that's for a while.
Arthur opened his mouth slowly.
[... It's impossible to say it directly. But...]
Arthur put his hand into his bosom.
Arthur, who had escaped before long, had something in his hand.
In some ways, it looks like a ‘plate',
and in some ways, it looks like a ‘cup'.
But overall it was something that looked like a crude glass.
“what is that?”
[This is the price I received for lending Excalibur.]
“Yes?”
Seojun tilted his head.
It's not like I sold it, I rented it.
It's not causal, it's just that you traded Excalibur for something like that?
It was rented rather than exchanged, but still.
How did he trade Excalibur for a clunky glass like that...
right at that moment.
Woooooooooooooo...!
Suddenly, a strong vibration was felt near Seo-jun's back.
None other than Longinus's spear was shaking.
“Why did the Spear of Longinus suddenly…?”
When Seojun took out the spear of Longinus, the vibration started to get stronger.
It was as if he was seeing and resonating with something.
The spear of Longinus resonates...?
for a moment.
“I can't believe this...”
Seojun slowly raised his gaze and looked at Arthur.
To be precise, it was the crude glass that Arthur was holding.
The Spear of Longinus, as if resonating after seeing the cup.
“I can't believe that...”
Seojun asked Arthur what came to mind.
“Is it the Holy Grail?”
#
The headquarters of the Jinrihoe, Greenland.
There is humility, mercy, kindness, diligence, patience, and moderation.
Six of the seven apostles were gathered together.
and reign over it.
There was a great voice pressed down on a black hood.
An atmosphere that sits down heavily.
However, the atmosphere seemed quite different from usual.
Before long, the apostle of humility took a step forward and opened his mouth.
“It is said to have disappeared...”
The Great Voice slightly turned its gaze to the Apostle of Humility.
Seeing that gaze, the apostles lowered their heads and lowered their gazes.
It was a sloppy report with the subject omitted.
But the great voice was not to blame.
It was because it was clear who had been annihilated.
The great voice slowly turned its head.
to be honest.
I never thought it would turn out like this.
It doesn't change. The predestined destiny does not change.
No matter how unexpected the variables are,
no one can escape from the overwhelming fate.
A mere individual could not twist the flow of fate.
I don't know if it was possible once because of a causal coincidence, but not twice.
I thought so.
I thought that the fate that had been decided would not change.
But...
【......】
Now the great voice could no longer glimpse fate.
There is only one reason for this.
It was because the intervention of the variable was beyond the assumption.
Overwhelmed the world-wide Jinrihoe and
took control of the fate of the entire Earth.
And that's just one person.
I thought I was just a pro hunter.
I thought it was just an invisible variable.
No one could afford it now.
It has become something that no one can touch.
Earth finally.
I escaped from the fate of the end
because of only one person.
The great voice slowly raised its head.
A face cast in darkness.
The gaze dwelling in it is directed toward the empty space.
and.
[I think you're looking.]
A great voice spoke out its will toward someone.
An empty space with nothing.
『Looks like you’re starting to get nervous, right?』
The will of the observer could be heard from within.
Upon hearing that will, the apostles could not bear to lift their heads.
primeval existence.
A transcendent above a transcendent.
An overwhelming presence is felt throughout the body.
And its presence was not at a level that humans could dare to endure.
『I wonder what the first Transcendentalist would say if he saw you now.』
The apostles were unable to take any action despite the sarcastic observer's will.
On the other hand.
[Do you think you can handle it?]
The great voice spoke out his will slowly, as if nothing had happened.
『Am I talking about you?』
【The speed of growth has exceeded the limit. thanks to whom If you go on like this, you won't know that you can't handle it either.]
[...]
The observer had no will to say anything.
It was because the observer also agreed to some extent with the will of the Great Voice.
The variable of transcendence, Seo Joon.
At first, I thought he was just a crazy bastard.
But now even the observer is out of control.
Instead of controlling it, I was being swayed!
Even Irina couldn't escape the watcher's hand.
As for what happened, the observer couldn't carelessly do as much as Seo-joon.
Like the words of the great voice, I can't handle Seo-joon if I keep going like this.
However, it took the great voice in front of him to restrain Seo-joon.
『What do you want to mean?』
【Release the causal constraints on the dimension.】
『What?』
The observer immediately uttered his will.
“Are you going to go out on your own? Impossible.”
That was absolutely not possible.
It was like calling a tiger or even a dragon to chase a wolf.
【The only way to deal with him now is that.】
『That's how you loosen the causal constraints? gibberish! And it's not something that can be solved just because you want to solve it.]
[Since when did you also not be able to intervene in causality in this dimension?]
[...]
The observer did not utter any will.
Because the will of the great voice was true.
The observer could no longer contemplate the cause and effect of the earth.
I could see exactly, but I couldn't get involved.
Likewise.
It was because the intervention of the variable was beyond the assumption.
It overwhelms the cause and effect on Earth and
controls the fate of the entire Earth.
And that's just one person.
The great voice continued its will.
【The interests of you and me stand at opposite points. However, there are times when you have to hold hands with your enemies.]
Even the being who was a god couldn't stand Seo Jun.
The first students who were close to the ranks of transcendence disappeared.
[If we go on like this, you and I will. You won't be able to achieve what you want.]
There is only one thing that can stand against Seo-jun now.
[Release the constraints of causality.]
He was a real god who had risen to the ranks of transcendence.
The watchman made no reply.
just thinking about it for a long time.
【Perhaps me and that bastard will be destroyed together. That would be the best outcome for you.]
『... It's a fucking situation in many ways.』
The observer had no choice but to admit.
I thought it would be impossible in my lifetime, but
our mutual understanding was fitting to some extent.
but.
Because I know who the great voice is.
Because I knew what would happen if the constraints of cause and effect were lifted.
[...]
The observer couldn't make a decision easily.
#
Seojun looked at the crude glass in Arthur's hand.
Something thought to be the Holy Grail, where
the spear of Longinus resonates .
[Right.]
Arthur nodded slowly.
And Seo-joon couldn't hide his surprise at Arthur's appearance.
It was also because the Holy Grail was not a simple object.
The Holy Grail was the cup that contained the Holy Blood of Jesus.
A kind similar to the spear of Longinus that pierced Jesus.
However, unlike the Spear of Longinus, the Holy Grail was a cup used by Jesus Christ himself.
It is described as a sacred object that brings miraculous power, ‘happiness, eternal youth, and infinite wealth' to its owner.
You gave that Holy Grail in exchange for Excalibur?
No, how does a great voice have the Holy Grail in the first place?
‘for a moment. Could this be...?'
[At first, I thought I would too, but now that I think about it, I don't think so.]
Arthur answered as if he had penetrated Seo-jun's question.
“Then why did you have the Holy Grail?”
[That... I don't know.]
Arthur bowed his head.
According to the legend of King Arthur, Arthur was desperate to find the Holy Grail.
Why did you hand over Excalibur?
If the price was the Holy Grail, it was worth it.
And when he said he was offering the Holy Grail, he accepted it without thinking too much.
The question is, how did the Great Voice ever have the Holy Grail?
The guesses were different.
It could have been from someone, or
maybe someone close to Jesus.
In the first place, according to tradition, the last source of the Holy Grail was not Jesus.
Seojun was lost in thought for a moment.
Then he calmly nodded his head.
“All right.”
[Then what about Excalibur...?]
Eventually, Arthur cautiously asked.
Seo-joon answered without any worries.
“Of course it’s the 1st view.”
[Huh?]
Arthur shouted in great panic.
[Where is this law! You must be...!]
“I said that if you tell me who you really are, I will give you a discount. There was no talk about what you received.”
[...]
Arthur was momentarily speechless.
What the hell...
What do you mean there are all these guys!!!
Will Arthur kill Seo-joon in an instant? I even thought of doing it.
But he quickly shook his head.
The momentum you just encountered.
Because I felt like I would lose if I fought!
Arthur was about to lose his mind.
To be honest, Arthur had no intention of selling Excalibur in exchange for the Holy Grail.
Nevertheless, it was handed over because it was a ‘rent', not a complete transfer of ownership.
Holy Grail and Excalibur.
Both were precious to Arthur, but Excalibur was more precious to Arthur.
However, to think that things would go this far...
You shouldn't miss Excalibur as it is.
but not 1st.
This is a cause and effect that cannot be collected even if beaten to death!
Arthur looked down at the Holy Grail in his hand.
The Holy Grail that I longed to obtain in the past.
A holy relic that brings the miraculous power of ‘happiness, eternal youth, and infinite wealth' to its owner.
So it is.
[As expected, it was something I couldn't have...]
It also meant a utopia that I could never have.
Arthur shouted, closing his eyes.
[Give me the Holy Grail!]
Stop.
[What if I gave you the Holy Grail?]
And maybe he was waiting for Arthur to say that.
“Available at a 50% discount.”
Half of 1 Gyeong is 5,000 trillion.
To put it simply, the price of the Holy Grail is 5,000 trillion.
It was a causal match.
Of course, the Holy Grail could go out more than 5,000 trillion.
But Arthur didn't want to think about it any longer.
It was because if I didn't sell Excalibur after saying something strange for no reason, it would be difficult.
And when Excalibur was put up for auction, it was no small feat for 5,000 trillion.
dizzy mind.
It seems that this is why Merlin said that collateral should not be taken carelessly.
[Okay. I'll try to save 5000 trillion somehow.]
Seo-joon replied with a grin.
“Yes. Then you can give me a total of 5,000,000,000,000,000,000 won, including the Holy Grail.”
[...?]
Arthur tilted his head for a moment.
If you sell it for 5000 trillion, what does 500 billion mean?
As if to penetrate Arthur's doubts.
Seojun immediately continued.
“Because the instructor’s class and lectures are 500 billion won per hour.”
[Why did you do that to me...?]
Then Seo-jun said as if he was saying something obvious.
“At our level, VAT is borne by the consumer.”
[......]
Arthur's absurdity finally ascended high into the sky.
< ...... >
The mentor who was quietly watching the scene ascended as well.
really.
It's the first time I've seen such a crazy person since the beginning of time.
