Episode 37 – The Seven Main Lines

Apparently, the people in front of me are insane.

“The knight saw me!!”

“No! You’re looking at me!!”

“Ah… It’s so beautiful to see the truth set free…”

I’ve been making a fuss and doing nothing and standing still, now I’m making things for everyone to praise.

No, it’s not normal to praise me as the enemy in the first place.

“excuse me.”

“Yes, knight.”

“Can’t we calm those people down?”

Anyway, I thought I was going to get mentally ill if I looked at them any longer, so I implied the president who was lying in front of me.

“Everyone, let’s be quiet.”

Then, the president immediately got up from his seat and began to speak in a solemn voice.

“It is in front of the truth, not anyone else. Let’s all be without shame.”

Hearing this, the people nodded, and then knelt again on the floor.

“Let’s all worship. The coming and going of the knights of prophecy…”

Then, the heroes raised their hands high again and started bowing their heads at me.

‘After all, is it because of this guy in my arms?’

Since then, it can be seen that he has a ‘concept of hypnosis’.

Apart from the fact that the screws are missing one by one, they don’t have any psychic abilities at stake.

If so, then this absurd situation is happening purely at the will of these guys.

No matter how much I think about it, the only cause is the monstrous creature wriggling in my arms.

This is because this situation started from the moment the guy in the form of a fox and a wolf put his head out of my arms.

‘…I need to dig up some information.’

Anyway, it’s definitely a pretty good situation for me. I don’t know what the hell you’re misunderstanding, but they’re pretty friendly with me right now.

If that’s the case, you should use the opportunity as a stepping stone to dig up as much information as possible.

Something seems to have gone around quite a bit, but anyway, digging up information was also the original purpose of my attending the seminar.

“Chairman.”

“yes?”

“Who am I?”

With that thought in mind, I asked the president a question in a cool voice.

First of all, it was to find out what kind of existence they consider me now.

“I am one of the great Apocalypse Knights who will accomplish our mission.”

“A knight of the apocalypse?”

Then the president looked at me and answered with a very nervous voice.

Come to think of it, the guys have been calling me a knight of prophecy and a knight of destruction.

Are you a very important person to them?

It seemed that I needed to dig a little deeper.

“Please explain a little more accurately.”

“yes?”

“I need to know how much you grasp the truth and how useful it is.”

Because of that, the president began to sweat in a cold sweat as he narrowed his eyes and whispered in a threatening voice.

“This is the test of the truth.”

“……!”

“Let’s prove the value of your use yourself.”

“Oh, I see!

Fortunately, the bluff worked out successfully.

For some reason, I thought things were going to go well from a while ago, but hopefully it will turn out to be this good.

“Well then… Shall we begin?”

It felt a little uncomfortable, but it wasn’t a good thing.

“Let’s get started.”

With that thought in mind, I began to focus on the president’s words.

.

.

.

.

.

“Since the Great Cataclysm, people’s bodies have literally all kinds of concepts. From basic concepts such as fire, water, air, and earth to abstract concepts such as joy, sadness, anger, and love.”

As the chairman said, now is an era overflowing with concept holders.

If you open a textbook and point out any word, there is even one person who has that word as an ability.

“And among them, there are powerful abilities called ‘power’ class.”

That statement is true. No matter how much it is a society that emphasizes that there is no nobility in concepts, some concepts have abilities that are almost like the power of God.

The most famous power level concept is the concept of the first hero, the ‘hero concept’.

In addition, the seven evils that dominated the world until a few decades ago. The concepts of the 7 main lines that fought against them are also called power levels.

“But even with such powerful abilities, they always existed within an era. Even concepts that appear very rarely have been reported once since the beginning of the society of supernatural powers.”

“Yes.”

“Except for just four concepts.”

After talking that far, the chairman took a breather and suddenly started to look at me.

“Does… Trauma-sama know what those four concepts are?”

“I told you to explain, I never asked you to ask a question.”

Then, as he gently looked into my eyes and asked a question, he whispered while glaring at me with cool eyes.

Rather than exposing my bottom line, it would be better this way.

“Sin, I’m sorry. How dare this old man go off topic…”

“Go on.”

He quietly shook his head and rushed to speak, and the president, frightened by the lever, started explaining again.

“Four concepts that have never appeared in the world. Conquest, war, famine, and death. As you know, these are the concepts symbolized by the four knights of the apocalypse.”

I am familiar with the 4 Knights of the Apocalypse.

Four knights who will destroy the world by causing disasters in the Bible.

Even though they are called four horse riders, these beings must have been the true nature of the ‘Knight of Prophecy’ they call.

“The child of prophecy said so. The moment the knights of the apocalypse gather all the truths that are divided into four pieces in different parts of the world, the old world will die and a new era will open.”

“Four pieces?”

“Yes. Eyes, heart, brain, body. These four pieces.”

Having said that, the chairman pointed to the monster that was still sticking his head out in my arms and said.

“What we had is the ‘heart’ of truth. It’s the most essential part.”

“……..”

Come to think of it, when I first met this guy, he was in the shape of a black heart.

So, is this guy one of the 4 pieces that will destroy the world the moment they are put together?

What is this guy really like?

“And that is the definitive proof that you are the Knight of the Apocalypse.”

“……?”

The moment they opened their mouths to ask more about the ‘truth’ they were talking about, the chairman said so in a flattering voice.

“The four pieces of truth obey only the Knight of the Apocalypse.”

– What?

Is the story like that?

The sight of him rubbing his own cheek against mine must have seemed submissive to them.

“And, only the knights of the apocalypse are the ones whose pieces speak their true names.”

However, that is a complete misunderstanding.

Because I’m not like the 4 Knights of the Apocalypse.

I know it well because I’ve tried it a few times.

My holding concept is ‘the concept of hypnosis’. Of course, it is a fairly powerful ability, but unlike the power-level concepts that are evaluated as divine abilities, it is a situational manipulation ability that can be destroyed if only the weaknesses are known.

“Excuse me, can you hear the name of the truth you harbor?”

Of course, it is impossible to have a conversation with this tentacle guy. He listens to me well, but that’s just one-sided help from the guy who liked me.

I can’t understand what he’s saying, and there’s no way to find out the ‘true name’ that the knights of the Apocalypse can know right away.

“Please, knight.”

So while I was quietly biting my lips, I heard the chairman’s voice from the front.

“Sorry, but it’s customary. Please share the honor with us.”

What should I do?

Can I say any name?

‘…Come to think of it, no one knows this guy’s name anyway.’

Read at readwn.com

Jin Myung only knows the existence of the ‘Knight of the Apocalypse’. Then, even if the true name is wrong, there will be no accusation.

So I’ll just give it a proper name.

‘Because it’s sticky to the touch, it’s chewy…’

– Bye!

“Ouch.”

With that thought in mind, I was about to come up with a name that suited him, but a strange creature suddenly slapped my arm.

I don’t know, but it seemed like he was making a pouty expression for some reason.

‘…More?’

– Bye!

‘Cheeky?’

– Byeolreuk!!

So, the naming time started unintentionally.

“…a knight?”

As the seeds of doubt slowly began to bloom in the eyes of the president who tilted his head, I answered with a slight frown.

“Byeok.”

“yes?”

“His name is Myung-i.”

Because I keep talking about my name, my name is also my name.

It was a spur of the moment, but when I think about it, it was a name I liked quite a bit.

– What?

Maybe he liked his name too, he didn’t hit my arm anymore, he tilted his head and called out his name.

No, I don’t know if it’s just a cry.

that’s it, what

“Oh oh…!”

He is quietly scratching his head, and a cry bursts out in front of him.

“Really, you really were the knights of the apocalypse…!”

“…yes?”

“If the true name is wrong even in Korean, the judgment of the truth will begin!

what is this again

– Bye bye!

Isn’t there no truth to the real name?

Still, seeing that nothing happened, it seems that he liked the name ‘Myungi’ that I gave him more than Jinmyung.

‘You’re lucky.’

Alright, from now on, your name will be Myung.

“We, the International Hero Federation, will swear eternal loyalty to the knight from now on! Heh heh heh…”

Wait a minute, but thinking about it.

Was this guy testing me?

“I would have said that the proof is what you have to do, not me.”

“Sir, excuse me. But this is a must…”

“Excuse me with words, don’t excuse me.”

“Ugh!”

In a bad mood, I kicked the guy’s leg, and the chairman collapsed to the floor.

– Can you hear me?

At that very moment, Miracle Shine’s radio began to be heard.

– Reinforcements from each country have arrived. We’ll get to where you are in a few minutes.

“Twitch.”

Is the time already like this?

I haven’t been able to figure out the exact identity of the truth or other details yet.

‘Well, since things have come to this, now is not the only opportunity.’

It was a big disappointment, but as long as the Hero Alliance turned to me in a friendly way, there were plenty of opportunities to dig up information in the future.

If anything, you can make a direct phone call to the president.

So, I think now is the time to step back.

“I will ask you one last thing.”

“Yes, yes. Feel free to ask anything.”

But before that, I’ll have to ask you this.

“Who exactly were the guys who killed Justia?”

“that…..”

“And who is the Dominating Hands spy?”

Hearing those words, the president’s complexion turned pale.

“There is no time. Be brief and precise.”

It’s easy to tell if this person is lying or telling the truth.

Because I dealt with many people with hypnosis, my ability, and understood their psychology.

“I, those who killed Justia…”

What he was saying now was the unmistakable truth.

“Excluding me… the 7 main lines. These are the guardians of the world scattered all over the place.”

finally figured it out

The identity of the bastards who killed Justia.

“Well, I rather dried it to the end. She still has some usefulness left… Ugh.”

“Didn’t you tell me you don’t have time. Shut up and tell me who the spy is.”

“Ah, I see. The Dominating Hands spy is…”

It was the moment when the object of revenge became clearer.

.

.

.

.

.

“Boo, please take care of yourself! Knight!”

“I’ll invite you to the chat room later!”

“Hey, if you can hug me once before I go…”

“It’s all off.”

After returning the president and the top-ranking heroes to the seminar room after completing the statement, I began to sigh while remaining alone in the outskirts.

“…Ummm.”

And soon, my body began to stumble.

“It’s a limit.”

The damage shared by Ariel was beyond imagination.

Was the Justia of the past always carrying this kind of damage instead?

After learning the truth, Ariel had to give up her dream of becoming a hero.

– ha.

“Mr. Miracle Shine?”

– I don’t know what I’ve heard so far.

While I was sitting quietly in my seat and sweating cold from the unending pain, I heard Miracle Shine’s radio call again.

“What is it, the truth of the world?”

– Uh…

“Now do you completely believe me?”

Then the silence started to last for a while.

Well, it was only because he, the second-ranked hero, learned all about the internal circumstances of the coalition that he did not know.

– Now, what should I do?

“That’s something you have to think for yourself.

Before long, I gave a stern answer to her asking in a disturbing voice.

– The Hero Alliance is on your side, what will you do next?

Then, after a while, she asks the question again in a calmer voice.

“I’ll use it as much as I can and kill them all. They’re monsters.”

– okay.

“And now there’s something more important than the confederation, the fish you’ve caught.”

7 main lines.

Together with Humanity, the heroes who created this era, who were the first to subdue the Seven Deadly Sins that ruled the world, and are now scattered around the world to protect the world as guardians.

However, the story of a hero who fights and wins against villains with the motif of the Seven Deadly Species is not too boring anymore.

Conversely, there should be a story about the villain fighting and winning the 7th generation Joo-sun.

‘And, the spy…’

That’s when I was trying to organize my thoughts and think about another threat this time.

– Tub, Tub…

The sound of footsteps starting to come from far away.

‘…shit.’

I didn’t know anyone would come.

I tried to get up in a hurry, but the damage shared by the physical link was accumulating, so my whole body couldn’t listen.

“Byeok-ah. Eat this.”

– Bye!

He takes off the mask of his trauma in a hurry and hands it to Myung-i, who swallows it.

“There, who is it?”

I returned to Oji-seok in such an instant, and, with a little nervousness, asked a question to an unknown customer.

“professor.”

Then, at the voice of Ariel who returned, he quietly sighed in relief.

“Are you a student of Ariel?”

“……..”

“Student, it’s dangerous here. I don’t mind…”

But even for a moment, as I looked up at her who had approached me, I had no choice but to stop talking.

“Ariel…?”

It was because tears were flowing from Ariel’s eyes.

“professor…….”

As she looked at her with a puzzled expression on her face, Ariel dug into her arms as if she was falling down.

“I’ve finally reached you.”

As she sobbed with her head buried, she began to mumble in a trembling voice.

“Now I’ll never fall again…”

“……..???”

Why are you doing this again?
