NOVEL WEB Chapter 281 - A world without him, and... (3)
Seo-joon slowly looked around at the unexpectedly audible will.
The boundary space covered with pure white light.
This place, where causality of all dimensions in the universe gathers, is the space where the observer dwells, and at the same time, after an existence transcends.
It was also the space to which they were brought before being expelled from the dimension.
So, it is said that most beginners are a space of boundaries.
The truth about the world.
The fact that there is an existence called a watcher.
These were things that could be known after transcending.
Before that, there was no way to know or know.
However, Seo-jun already knew all of that right before he transcended.
It wasn't as far as I knew.
Now I can even feel the faint nostalgia.
In fact, it was not a boundary space, but
it was familiar enough to be called a boundary love room.
Seo-jun continued to look around the boundary space.
As I looked around, the observer was nowhere to be seen.
But only the form is invisible.
Seo-jun was unaware that the Observer existed somewhere here.
Seojun shrugged once and opened his mouth.
“It’s been a while, sir. How have you been?”
[Yes.]
As expected, the will of the observer was heard.
At the observer's answer, Seo-jun smiled and opened his mouth again.
“Ah… the Watcher is doing well. I haven't been doing well... It's the wind that someone packed a lot of shit and dumped it on me. It's not just that I'm having a hard time cleaning it up. Ugh.”
When Seo-joon thinks of that time, he seems to be terrified.
He shook his head.
“Still, the watcher said you were doing well. What a relief!”
[...]
The observer seems to have lost his will.
No answer was given.
I had no will to say anything.
Someone Seojun refers to.
Someone sarcastic about taking that shit.
who that someone is
Because I knew it very well.
And because everything Seojun said was true!
[...]
The observer really couldn't utter any will.
Seo-joon burst into laughter once again at the sight of such an observer.
Of course, I couldn't tell what it looked like because it didn't have a shape.
However, there were things that could be known even without form.
“Somehow, 3,000 free coupons as a reward would be fine. How are you?”
“Don't talk nonsense. What about 3000 sheets...?”
Then Seo-jun seemed to tell him not to say anything he didn't know.
He spoke right away like a rapid-fire gun.
“Honestly, it is. My dimension and the entire universe almost perished because of the watcher's shit. Did I really have a hard time cleaning it up?”
“And imagine if I didn’t clean up. Then not only my dimension but the universe itself would have perished, right? If you calculate one coupon for each dimension that exists in the universe, aren't 3,000 coupons just free?”
Seojun suddenly raised his head and shouted.
“No, come to think of it, 3000 copies are really cheap, right? In a way, I saved all the dimensions that exist in the universe... Let's do it neatly with 300 billion sheets. I won't be able to get away with it for a while though.”
In any case, this bastard continued to the end...
The observer muttered his will inwardly.
But I muttered inwardly and couldn't bring it out.
To be honest...
I didn't have anything to refute!
The observer only let out a deep sigh... no, one will.
The observer slowly contemplated Seo-jun's appearance.
Invisible causal flow.
It was clear evidence that he had escaped from the restraints of cause and effect and had entered the realm of transcendence.
Of course, I couldn't see Seo-jun's cause and effect from before, but
now it felt quite different from then.
Transcendence meant escaping from causality that normally restrains existence.
Therefore, transcendental people meant those who did not have the limits of existence.
Therefore, there is no difference in class between them.
However, it is a natural law of this world that there is a difference in rank depending on existence.
The existence of transcendental beings are beings that violate the laws of the world, and
observers search them out and banish them from the dimension and manage them.
but.
For some reason, Seo-jun could not see the cause and effect of his existence from the beginning.
Even though he was a superborn, not a transcendental person, Seo-joon had no restrictions on the cause and effect that restrained existence.
And now.
It felt like Seo-Jun had escaped from the causality of existence and the laws that constitute the world itself.
It was as if the law of cause and effect could not approach Seo-joon.
Transcendence only escapes the cause and effect of existence.
You cannot go against the basic laws that make up the world.
The moment you go against the rules.
The whole universe regards that existence as its great enemy and annihilates it.
That's why, no matter how transcendent,
even if it's a transcendent above a transcendent.
It was impossible to defy the laws of the world itself.
Only once since the beginning.
There was a being who wanted to go against the law, but
in the end, he died because the cause and effect itself was erased by the will of the world.
But why the hell...
the observer couldn't figure out the reason.
But I only had doubts and didn't bother to mention it.
There was no reason to even mention it.
『...... Do you think the free coupon has meaning now?』
Because it didn't mean anything anymore anyway.
Seo-jun completely transcended from cause and effect, and
the world denied the existence of Seo-jun.
Therefore, Seo-Jun is now expelled from the dimension.
You will never be able to engage in the world again.
Nothing makes sense now.
everything is over
“Well... that's right.”
Seojun was also well aware of that fact.
Seojun nodded slowly.
It was a known fact.
That free coupons no longer mean anything after transcendence.
Wouldn't it be possible to erase the cause and effect of returning to Earth with a free coupon?
I honestly didn't think about it.
However, the free coupon was not a coupon that really erased causality, but shifted the burden of causality to the observer.
In a word, the observer bears the cause and effect that Seo-jun should have borne.
And the fact that the observer bears the burden is the same as the burden of causality of the dimension.
Even if you use a free coupon.
The causal burden of Seo Jun's existence still exists.
That's why I couldn't go back to Earth again.
The world is made up of basic laws of cause and effect, and Seo Jun's existence completely violates those laws. It was
not only the existence of Seo Jun, but also
the existence of these transcendentalists.
Seo-jun's existence itself violates the laws of the world.
Of course, it was possible to twist the law and force it to exist.
However, Cain and Gwa will not be able to handle the overload.
Seo-joon's existence alone becomes the end of a great voice.
That's why Seo-joon couldn't return to Earth.
I could never meet my precious people again.
That's why I tried to reject transcendence...
but in the end, the story reached here and flowed.
Seo-joon stood still at the end of the story.
Now, if you take this one step, everything is over.
A long and long relationship will finally arrive at its end.
A lot of events, a lot of things.
Numerous stories that have been intertwined will come to an end.
This was an unavoidable fate and
a predestined ending.
I think it will come someday.
I didn't want you to come.
last story.
But...
“Wait before that.”
Seojun slowly raised his head.
gaze.
The observer was still invisible, and only pure white light was visible.
“There are a few things I would like to ask you. Watcher.”
Before the observer's answer could be heard, Seo-joon continued talking.
“Guardian…what the hell are you doing?”
observer.
As a transcendent above the transcendent, if you look at the meaning as it is, it was literally a ‘contemplative being'.
And the object of contemplation is none other than the laws of cause and effect that make up the world.
An existence that manages and contemplates causality of all dimensions residing in the universe.
He was the observer.
To be precise, it was the observer Seo-jun had known until now. [...] What is
the intention
of asking the question?
An attitude of being wary of something.
Seo-joon pretended nothing was wrong and opened his mouth again.
“It’s just literal. I wonder what the watcher is doing. To simply manage and contemplate dimensions... It's because there's something clumsy about it.”
That would be the case, as was the name.
An observer is a being who manages and contemplates causality of all dimensions residing in the universe.
And causality is the basic law that constitutes the world.
Managing the law could be seen as the same as being the creator of the world.
However, the name is none other than the observer.
He was not a creator.
Of course, it was difficult to make a problem simply with the name.
either the observer or the creator.
Because the absolute existence has not changed.
However, in the meantime, Seo-joon has been through a contemplative.
There was one very strange thing.
Even the observer himself cannot perfectly control the flow of cause and effect.
The fact that he left the Transcendentalist Academy, which was a thorn in his eyes.
Not being able to do anything about the great voice trying to destroy the dimension.
Above all, he promised to give Seo-jun a free coupon.
To be honest, one wave of the hand should have put an end to everything.
Even if it's a causal restraint or something.
Because the observer was a transcendent being located above the cause and effect.
But the observer couldn't do that.
The transcendent academy couldn't help it, and
the great voice couldn't help it, so I asked Seo-jun for a favor, and
Seo-jun repeatedly rip off the free coupon.
At first, I just thought it was incompetent.
But now that I think about it, I shouldn't have been incompetent.
Exactly, I couldn't have been incompetent.
Because the observer was literally a transcendental being who managed the cause and effect of the dimension.
In this universe, the observer had to have the same power as a god.
If you were bound by causality, it was enough to create a cause and effect that was not bound by that cause and effect.
Is such a transcendent being incompetent?
This made no sense.
There is only one condition under which the observer is incompetent.
If the contemplator cannot control causation at will.
And that you can't control cause and effect.
that means that.
The observer is not the creator.
to say this again.
“You were also one of the Transcendentalists, right?”
It comes to the conclusion that the observer is also nothing more than a transcendental being.
“That's why I couldn't use the name Creator.”
Because they were bound by causality that could not lie,
observers had no choice but to exist as observers.
Literally, the observer was not the creator.
So the question asked again.
“What the hell is the watcher doing?”
who the hell is the watcher
So, who is the real creator who created this world?
No, do creators exist?
And why the observer?
Is it living in the space of the boundary and managing the cause and effect of the dimension like this?
Why are we searching for transcendentalists who have escaped from the restraints of cause and effect?
Why banish them out of the dimension?
『......』
The observer did not give any answer to Seo-jun's question.
A pure white boundary space illuminated only by white light.
A thick silence descended.
Seo-joon quietly waited for the observer's will.
How much time had passed like that?
“…Do you think that has meaning now?”
The observer slowly let out his will.
Seojun raised his gaze and asked.
“If yes, would you be willing to answer?”
[...]
The observer did not utter any will.
The observer calmly contemplated Seo-jun's appearance.
two shining eyes.
It was as if he was determined not to move until he heard an answer.
I couldn't see the usual atmosphere where a screw was missing even after washing my eyes.
As expected...
I don't think we can keep this guy alive.
The observer firmly fixed his will.
In the meantime, there was no choice but to prevent the destruction of the dimension.
In order to prevent the destruction of the dimension, the existence of Seo-Jun was needed, and
Seo-Jun had no choice but to bite his teeth and endure even when he crossed the line.
But now the end of the universe is gone.
There is no longer a threat called apocalypse.
Rather, the existence of Seo-jun became a threat.
If it transcended like this, I don't know.
If I was exiled out of the dimension calmly, I was willing to let it go... but
the basic laws of cause and effect that make up this universe.
In that law, the end of the hound after the hunt was decided.
Koo Goo Goo Goo...!
In an instant, a huge murderous intent erupted, and the entire boundary space began to vibrate.
This is where all dimensions in the universe come together.
Thus, the boundary space where causal effects of all dimensions flow.
The observer concentrated the flow of cause and effect in one place.
A terrible wave of murderous intent erupts.
It is an illusion that the entire universe is approaching as an adversary.
No, it's not an illusion, it was actually like that.
Therefore, this was a ruin from which no existence could avoid annihilation, and a decisive reason why many transcendental beings feared the observer.
An infinite universe unfolding.
In front of that infinite world, the transcendent was nothing more than dust.
And Seojun was the same.
No matter how much Seo-joon is a transcendent above the transcendent, he cannot handle this.
Seo-joon's existence itself collapses and disappears.
It is crushed by the power of the universe and disappears without leaving a trace.
But...
why the hell.
“Can I assume that this is the answer?”
Seojun was looking at the front calmly with an expression as if he knew that.
