 [Chapter 227]

[Relife (6)]

His myth was incomplete.

Even Eun-ha, who had heard those words from Baek Seo-jin early on, inwardly acknowledged it.

After defeating the myth of Armageddon.

Even after inheriting Baek Seo-jin's myth.

He felt that he was somehow incomplete.

My myth is not yet complete.

Revival is not a complete ideology that can define me.

An ideology reflecting myth.

The ideology reflecting <Sword Empress> Hwang Jin-hee's myth was rewarding good and punishing evil, punishment of evil.

Also, the ideology reflecting Armageddon's myth was the soul, and <Dark King> Baek Seo-jin's ideology was control.

They had found an ideology that could completely define themselves over decades.

Then what is the complete ideology that can express himself?

Eun-ha pondered endlessly, and finally had to admit.

I am a regressor.

Looking back, he had already found the answer.

Nevertheless, he had only tried to thoroughly hide that answer.

He was forcibly trying not to unconsciously include it in the ideology that should express himself.

How foolish of me.

Because I tried so hard not to tell others about the past before regression.

He was afraid.

He was afraid of being feared by his people, not the boss monster in front of him.

But by now that anxiety had completely disappeared.

The process of Noh Eun-ah disappearing from this world and reaching the deepest part of the black dungeon made him honest.

And that's not all.

"I keep receiving help from you until the end."

In the dream.

Eun-ha met Lee Yu-jeong.

What did she say then?

'No matter what you say now, no one will be afraid of you anymore. So don't be afraid.'

He just needed to take one step.

Yet Eun-ha couldn't take it.

If Lee Yu-jeong hadn't told him then, Eun-ha wouldn't have been able to be honest.

Because she pushed his back.

Eun-ha was able to fully manifest his incomplete myth.

Myth Manifestation

Relife

Regression, the ideology defining himself.

Eun-ha's myth that finally gave the answer found its true form.

[The dungeon is reacting!?]

Eun-ha could hear the dungeon guide speaking in shock.

It's understandable to be surprised.

Originally, myths don't function properly except in the region they're based on.

Especially in dungeons with different world lines, myths become somewhat incomplete.

Because dungeons don't recognize the achievements forming that myth.

But Eun-ha's myth was different.

[How is this... It should be impossible without building achievements in the dungeon...]

Relife was functioning completely in the black dungeon.

Even without Eun-ha deliberately raising the output, it was growing to a rank equal to the black dungeon.

Of course it was.

"I told you, I regressed."

[Don't tell me, you...]

"Yes, it's as you think."

[It wasn't the first time. You had already set foot in this dungeon once!]

The achievement that forms the basis of Relife.

The cause of Eun-ha's regression.

That place was right here.

The deepest part of the <Dungeon of the Abyss>.

Before regression, Eun-ha gained the myth of regression and revival while dying here.

I could use myth from the start.

Not knowing that, I thought I gained myth while defeating Ye-gyeong.

Eun-ha gave a bitter smile.

The myth was close by from the beginning.

He discovered it only now.

He realized about the abyss only when facing the abyss.

"Then shall we go properly now."

Eun-ha infused power into the myth.

Flames swell in strength.

Lightning writhes violently.

Darkness fills the bottom of the myth.

As he spreads three pairs of wings wide, the myth pulsates accordingly.

Fire that has grown as if to swallow the universe burns the world of the black dungeon.

"With this our ranks have become similar. You really are strong. You're probably stronger than the boss in the <Dungeon of the Deep Sea>."

To become twice as strong as the opponent.

Eun-ha clicked his tongue.

Although he knew the boss monster of the <Dungeon of the Abyss> was quite strong, he didn't expect it to be this strong.

It's probably the strongest among black dungeon bosses.

But even so─

"─No matter how strong a monster that's not even human is, in the end it will just be defeated by humans."

[Do you think you've become something great because your rank is similar to ours? I'm sorry but it's useless. It seems you couldn't kill us before regression either, so do you think you can win? It's impossible. You'll lose.]

"Impossible, huh..."

Hearing the dungeon guide's words.

Eun-ha couldn't help but laugh.

Impossible, you'll lose.

Those words─

"─I've heard countless times until now. And I've come this far."

Are words he has always denied.

And he will deny them this time too.

Even if he has to burn this life, definitely.

Attacks pour down.

The master of the black dungeon returned twice the attacks it had received so far.

The conquest team members flew towards it stubbornly without avoiding the attacks.

Soon, all sorts of magic pounced on them.

"It's useless before my myth."

Eun-ha exerted the power of Relife.

Just by him waving his arm.

All incoming attacks disappear.

He turned back time.

All the magic it activated regressed in time and returned to the starting point.

And that's not all.

The attacks it received also returned to the starting point.

[Do you think you'll win by doing that!?]

In his myth.

Time and death are not free.

Time turns back as he wishes and death is denied without his permission.

No one gets hurt.

No one dies.

Eun-ha flew towards it.

Gehenna Blast

Bae Su-bin swings her red staff.

She opened the way.

Hundreds of flame wings create hundreds of trajectories in the black universe.

Eun-ha who passed through the trajectories they created narrowed the distance towards it.

[Even if you turn back time, it will end if just you die anyway!]

From this point on, it designated Eun-ha as the enemy that must be attacked with top priority.

Attacks the conquest team members inflicted on it flood in.

Eun-ha regressed the incoming magic, foiling its attacks.

[Eeeek! Then how about this! Can you turn back our power too!?]

Its movements changed.

For a moment red eyes flashed.

When it waved its hand, countless magic circles appeared behind its back.

Then it grasped the darkness drifting in the world and created two swords.

───!!

The black dungeon begins bombardment.

When it swings down the swords, a storm blows and disturbs the air currents.

Even myth can't block it.

He could only revive people caught in the attacks.

────!!!

Eun-ha gritted his teeth.

His vision blurs.

He who quickly moved his flame wings avoids the flooding magic.

The moment he takes a hit he activates myth to nullify the damage itself.

Even if pushed back by attacks he advances.

I must reach it somehow!!

The remaining distance felt far.

In reality the distance was increasing.

The world was expanding somehow by its tricks.

Eun-ha accelerated.

He tried to somehow avoid the pouring attacks and stab his sword into it.

His heart beat strongly.

Gift <Berserk >

The most necessary gift in this situation.

Eun-ha who activated <Berserk > had his senses sharpened terrifyingly.

The senses of his whole body perceived the world.

His instincts awakened several times over.

Dunning Blade

He blocks what can't be avoided and quickly reverts it with myth.

Or cuts and absorbs it with the Twilight Sword.

The two swords shine brilliantly.

The swords that remain intact even after blocking the black dungeon's bombardment draw lines in the sea of starlight.

Two streams of lines cross the universe and attack it.

Meanwhile Eun-ha broke through the bombardment and had reached it.

Gift <Brave >

He manifests myth to reset his body condition and quickly switches gifts.

The pass connects with comrades and his heart heats up his whole body.

Gift <Brave >

His comrades' gifts resonate.

Jeong Ha-yang's gift <Multitasking > connects other people's gifts.

Cha Eun-woo's gift <Resonance >.

Han Chang-jin's gift <Access >.

Kang Si-hyeong's gift <Howling >.

Bae Su-bin's gift <Boost >.

Jo A-ra's gift <Quadruple >.

Kaede's gift <Environment Sensing>.

Son Ga-yeon's gift <Metabolism >.

And even Avenir's gift <Metallization > and Bong Gu-rae's gift <Double Penetration>.

9 gifts connected by <Multitasking > affect the world.

The myth grows rapidly.

[You... What exactly is your identity? No, how can gifts suddenly change...]

"Me? A regressor."

The myth expands.

The rank of the myth grows even larger.

Finally Eun-ha's myth became equal in rank to the black dungeon.

No, it far surpassed it.

[Impossible...]

The dungeon guide denies reality.

It's an impossible thing.

The limits of humans are set.

But Eun-ha, the people following him were becoming stronger at an unimaginably fast rate.

"Nothing is impossible in this world."

On the other hand, Eun-ha spoke with conviction.

There was nothing impossible for him.

He infused power into the Twilight Sword.

Gift

Mok Min-ho's gift is added.

The power to cut anything according to the holder's will.

Eun-ha swung the Twilight Sword at it flashing red eyes.

───────!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Light flashed.

A pure white trajectory split the universe.

Light emitted from the trajectory covers the universe once more.

Light that seems like it will blind one's vision swallows it.

──────!!!!!!!

The conquest team could hear its screams suffering as it was swallowed by light.

It is torn to pieces.

It disappears becoming mana particles.

We are fear.

We are despair.

Something incomprehensible.

But it didn't die.

It that disappeared becoming mana particles began to create a body again in the distant universe, galaxy.

[As long as mana exists in this world! We will never die! Because we are made of the dungeon's mana! Just give up already!]

Eun-ha didn't answer.

He had no intention of giving up.

No matter how many times it asked, the answer remained unchanged.

He will definitely defeat it, kill it.

Gift <Berserk >

It returns attacks twice over.

Eun-ha charged straight on.

He entrusts his body to <Berserk >'s instincts.

Dunning Blade

The two swords intersect.

Sword strikes swung down from above cut through and absorb its attacks.

But power not completely absorbed constricts him from all directions.

It feels like he'll be swallowed by energy if he lets his guard down even a little.

I can do it.

Eun-ha gritted his teeth.

He held onto his mind so it wouldn't fly away.

His conviction didn't waver.

He charges while deflecting the bombardment.

Finally he split through the bombardment.

The Milky Way was spread out before his eyes.

It was there.

Gift <Heroic >

[Crazy...!! You're avoiding that!?]

<Heroic > shows the future.

Eun-ha who avoided the incoming attacks immediately swung his sword following the world the future showed.

Then its attack from the side failed.

Now I understand.

Eun-ha was finally able to define what his gift was while switching to the third gift.

The corners of Eun-ha's mouth who avoided its attack rose.

A name encompassing the three gifts came to mind.

Gift <Endless >

Past, present, future.

Encompassing everything, it is himself.

The limits of humans are endless.

Therefore anything is possible.

<Berserk >, <Brave >, <Heroic >.

The three powers derived from himself made him realize that fact.

His gift is truly human life itself.

That's why he doesn't give up.

There is no giving up in his life.

Only victory exists.

Gift <Endless (Heroic)>

<Heroic > shows the future.

<Berserk > responds to attacks.

<Brave > gives strength.

Eun-ha coordinated myth and gift, finally reaching it.

With this, it's over.

He flies towards the red eyes.

The Dawn Sword emits fierce light as if it had been waiting for this moment.

Eventually his sword pierces through it.

[It's useless I tell you. No matter how many times I say it, you... Uh... Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh!!!!!!!!???????]

Dawn Sword

Double sentence, Gift <White Silver>

Pure white light.

Finally drives away the universe.

I, won.

In the world turning white.

Eun-ha laughed refreshingly.
