Chapter 492 The Last War (6)
The Heavens and the Demons. And the spirit realm and the fantasy realm.
Although closely related to Arcadia, the beings here, who were divided into distinctly different dimensions, could originally only emerge through strict and demanding procedures and various processes.
Existences that only appear temporarily through beings belonging to Arcadia, such as advents, summons, or contracts, and can exert their power in a very limited way. But now, appearing in this final war, they are fighting the forces of the Void with their power unleashed more freely than ever before.
[go away! You worms!]
[Kieeh!]
[This continent belongs to the great dark lord and our demon world!]
Hell's demons and monsters spouting corrupted demons appear in Arcadia as guardians, not invaders. has revealed
[Sacred torch, judge the imperfect with unquenchable flames.]
[God's protection will protect you.]
Angels, who were busy judging and trembling if they were demons, fought back to back to protect and protect them.
[Brothers and sisters, do what you can to protect this world.]
[Destroy all the ugly invaders that pollute this world.]
[Disappear. This world is not a place for you.]
The spirits and divine beasts, who hated battles and wars more fiercely than anyone else and never intervened in Arcadia's affairs, were actively and voluntarily fighting.
And there was one being looking at the miraculous situation.
“How... is this possible?”
A young girl with green hair and green eyes.
She had a very small stature that looked like she was only 9 years old, but her divinity and prestige were so huge that no one could ignore them.
“uh? what. The Great Forest is far away from here, so how did you manage to get around like this?”
The existence that supports this world and the only deity belonging to Arcadia.
The World Tree is a symbol of life and the mother of all things.
When she, who had never left her realm, appeared out of nowhere, Jae-young looked at him with an unexpected look and asked, but World Tree muttered with a puzzled expression.
“Even the Demon Realm and the Celestial Realm are like that.... Even the Spirit Realm and the Phantom Realm open a direct passage through which they can intervene without going through me? This is impossible even for you, no matter how special you are.”
Arcadia stands for infinite freedom and infinite possibilities.
However, beings with transcendent divinity were not allowed such freedom.
In front of the huge shackles of a mission, they are like puppets who must faithfully move on stage according to their predetermined destiny and role. That's why the World Tree was in great confusion watching what was happening all over the continent.
“How... how can an angel or a demon... let alone a spirit or divine beast, but a mere human subject, exercise the absolute right to command?”
The authority granted only to the heads of each dimension, the absolute right to command.
Seeing the beings from another dimension who entered the war to protect the world of Arcadia according to that order, the World Tree asked. And Jaeyoung answered that question.
“that's right. It is impossible on my own.”
“...?”
“But it's possible if you're the creator of this world.”
“What is that...?”
No matter how much the characteristics and probability of the profession of a wanderer in the turbulent world are fraudulent, there were obviously limitations.
It was impossible to do anything too outrageous, since the greater the influence of the rules and settings to be twisted and manipulated, the greater the probability needed to grow exponentially.
However, in this final war, it was completely possible.
[The final chapter scenario, Asura's Invasion has begun.]
[The job perk ‘Agent of the Creator' buff continues.]
Unlike others who were given the buff of Adversary of the End, Jaeyoung was given a buff with a completely unfamiliar name. And the effect of that buff was brief and simple.
[Agent of the Creator]
-The world responds to your will.
The developer's intention to openly intervene in this situation is palpable. Thanks to this title, which is like permission to do whatever you want, Jae-young realized this impossible miracle that he could not dare to commit even with tens of billions of possibilities.
“You still don’t know? Whose will is this will that is being embodied through me?”
“What the hell is that...?”
The world tree froze with astonished eyes as if it noticed something.
But just as she was about to ask something, a huge roar came from the sky.
Ku-goo-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung.
Powerful vibrations as if the entire world would be twisted. And beyond the broken and ruined dimensional wall, an existence appeared as it splashed an enormous spark.
[Still... this world is messy and messy.....]
A being with the appearance of a handsome scion with a face as pale as a sheet of paper.
However, the terrible darkness felt from him and the huge divinity that swallowed even the soul clearly showed that he was not an ordinary human being.
Asura, the master of the Black Mist.
The eyes of the adventurers began to change strangely when he appeared, the final boss of this scenario and the end of everything.
“oh! The boss is out!”
“If we catch him, this scenario will end, right?”
“If you hit that last, how much will you contribute...?”
Novelty, curiosity and greed.
Because they do not die even if they die and the fact that the end of this disgusting scenario is in sight, rather than shrinking, they began to attack all at once, not to be defeated by anyone.
“Kill!”
“Aww! Let’s poke a persimmon you can’t eat!”
“Distance! Distance dealers! Beat all of them at one point!”
A situation where attacks with all kinds of powerful power are pouring from all sides.
However, despite the tremendous firepower being projected and flying towards him, Asura did not blink an eye. I just stayed still... No, I stretched out my hand with a mocking smile.
[That's stupid.]
Fighting.
All of the attacks lost their power and disappeared with just one word.
Then Asura asked, pointing the small sword he was holding in his other hand toward the crowd of ants in the distance.
[Did you think that things like bugs could harm me with just such things?] It was a
small action that was no more than swinging a sword in the air playfully.
But the aftermath was huge.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
A huge scar carved across the continent as if something had cut through it.
And the life that filled it all disappeared without leaving a trace.
A powerful blow that annihilated hundreds of thousands of living beings in an instant without being able to block dragons, top-level demons, or anything else.
Looking at the overwhelming destructive power and the resulting aftermath, users could not close their gaping mouths.
“This crazy...?”
“It's ridiculous..... How to catch that thing...”
Asura didn't even start in earnest, but looked unusual. However, he looked down at the continent of Arcadia and muttered, as if he had no intention of moving yet.
[In front of the end, any hope is meaningless. You still haven't given up your futile resistance in front of the void, foolish creatures...]
Asura muttered as if it was regrettable.
And he looked at everyone and said.
[Humbly face the moment of the end in front of the overwhelming power of the void.]
That moment.
In the huge hole of the void, beings that had not yet appeared began to emerge, tearing through the gaps in the dimension.
[The one who dreams of eternity]
[The devourer of planets and stars]
[The goddess who exhales the breath of destruction]
[Eyes gazing into the endless abyss]
Each one of them has a transcendental status beyond the ordinary level.
Asura smiled and murmured as she watched those gigantic disasters appearing and slowly engulfing Arcadia.
[This is... your true destiny.]
* * *
“Uhmm..... It's shit as expected.”
Obviously powerful, but the forces of the void that adventurers and NPCs could deal with.
In addition, when all the beings of the other dimensions, including the celestial world and the demon world, intervened, they were leading the war situation quite advantageously to the extent that there was actually hope beyond the level of boiling.
However, the true void and disasters that appeared with Asura.
Jaeyoung frowned as if he was in trouble as he looked at the countless people disappearing meaninglessly in front of their overwhelming and transcendent divinity. However, the world tree muttered something with a detached expression.
“As expected... can't the predetermined fate be reversed...”
The ending was already decided from the beginning of this Arcadia.
The World Tree, who had been aware of her own predestined death from long ago, was clearly aware of the overwhelming power of Asura felt on this vast continent... and far away.
The fact that no matter how much you resist and struggle, you can't change the ending that has already been decided.
So, the world tree said to Jaeyoung, who was struggling with something.
“Give up. This is a narrative that has been set in this world that no one can stop.”
I expected a miracle, but when I faced the reality calmly, I could never expect victory. Therefore, the World Tree was determined to face the end while humbly accepting its fate until the very last moment.
But...
“Who cares?”
“what....?”
“What kind of shitty situation is it that it’s predestined and an absolute narrative that can’t be changed?”
Jaeyoung doesn't agree with the idea of the World Tree. And he said it like he was fed up.
“There are no absolutes in this world. No, there is no game without strategy. I just don't know what to do. Don’t keep saying things like that in front of someone who is trying to find a strategy.”
“What the hell is that...?”
“Rather... you are the main stakeholder in this doomsday scenario, aren’t you? Why are you talking about this nonsensical conversation with me while crossing the river?”
“what....?”
“Come to think of it, the strongest person in Arcadia’s worldview is not Dragon, but you? He’s the only deity with divinity within the continent of Arcadia, and that’s pretty powerful.”
The first being created in the beginning and the first child of the father, the world tree.
That's why she was originally the most powerful being that even Tan and El couldn't dare to do anything with 1:1.
Of course.... the restrictions and missions were also thorough.
“That is impossible. I... can't do anything aggressive.”
A world tree with an extremely peaceful mission to the extent that it has no mission for self-defense, so even if attacked by someone, there is nothing it can do except be beaten.
That's why she always had to watch with her own two eyes as Tan and El were doing all sorts of tricks and fuss in Arcadia.
“No, it is possible.”
“what....?”
“Am I telling you to do that?”
“Now what is that...? No... wait a minute.....”
Gye-soo realized something was wrong while talking with Jae-young. And she looked at Jaeyoung with eyes that were about to jump out in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice.
“How... how did this happen...?”
Jaeyoung murmured softly to the World Tree, who was in great shock, feeling in real time that the powerful restraints that had been holding her down from the beginning until now were disappearing.
“Who said it? This world is truly a world of infinite freedom and infinite possibilities.”
The motto that runs through this arcadia.
Reciting it, Jaeyoung ordered the world tree.
“You literally decide the fate of this world.”
“.....”
The World Tree thought about something at those words.
And she said with a strange smile.
“I've lived quite a while... but you... you're such a unique human being.”
“I hear that often.”
Jaeyoung smirks and responds smirkingly.
Then, the world tree raised one hand to the sky and said to Jaeyoung.
“thanks.”
Koo-goo-goo-goo-goo-goo-goo.
A giant tree root suddenly rises in the middle of the continent.
Seeing that, everyone made a shocked expression. The World Tree felt an indescribable sense of pleasure and liberation and hit it hard.
“Everyone die, you damn bastards.”
