***

The dull feeling that hit my body disappeared. And what I saw was a black world.

“What… this place?”

There was only darkness where I couldn’t see anything, so much so that I wondered if I was blind.

– T-ring

A familiar window appeared with a familiar sound.

[Guide to Dimensional Shift-3]

[The object of possession is overwritten by a being named Kang In-ho.]

[Number of dimension shifts: 4]

[Reason for Death in All Dimensions: Derailment]

“He’s dead…”

You died again. I didn’t mean to die, and I didn’t provoke Mina.

So, it means that death is not limited to people who are obsessed with me.

‘Did he kill me the moment I decided to settle in the dimension?’

Now, I’m also hypothesizing that they’re being mistreated in all sorts of ways.

No, she may be a bitch, but she wouldn’t do something this petty.

So what can be deduced from my fourth death is…

“The number of deaths has increased.”

The conclusion is that death cannot be avoided by being careful about just one object.

“…….”

There’s one thing that bothers me more than the fact that I’m dead and having to start over again in another dimension.

“Is Mina…is she okay?”

For the first time, I was determined to do well, but who would have known that we would break up in such a ridiculous way?

“Ha. If I had known this would happen, I would have at least kissed him.”

What has already passed. It is something that cannot be undone.

Even if you try to catch something you regret, you won’t be able to catch it like the cigarette smoke that spreads, and you will only end up coughing repeatedly because it is poisonous to your body.

“So where on earth am I?”

I think the time for dark adaptation has already passed. I can’t see anything.

And why are you lying down?

– chin

And it’s narrow.

It looks like you’re trapped in some kind of box? Or a trunk?

No, I was imprisoned from the start? The level of difficulty is too high.

Aside from being frustrating, the fact that I am confined in a small space fills me with anxiety.

I can’t do it. I have to leave.

When I pushed with my knees and hands, it lifted slightly, so it didn’t seem like it was stuck in a trunk or something.

– rattle

I push the lid open with all my might, and a rush of fresh air blows into my face.

What is this refreshing air?

When I got up, a faint light was dimly lighting up the space.

bedroom? Mortuary? A space with a bizarre mix of concepts.

“What is this creepy place.”

When I try to get up by putting strength on my knees, my whole body screams.

It was as if he had been lying down for a long time.

“It looks like a coffin.”

When I looked at the place where I was lying, there was a coffin made of a straight rectangle.

It seems a little bigger than a typical coffin, but a coffin is still a coffin.

Carefully lift your feet and get out of the coffin.

As I stepped on the smooth stone floor, the cold ran up the soles of my feet.

“Why are the clothes so baggy?”

The soft fabric rubs against your skin. Aside from the design, you can tell at a glance that the clothes are luxurious.

I massage my sore knee and learn the space.

“What on earth are you doing here?”

I can’t figure it out.

All I can tell is that it is very quaint.

***

“What a guy!!”

When I heard a sound from the doorway, I saw two scary-looking people holding torches looking at me.

Judging by the way they are wary of me, it seems like they don’t know I’m here.

“Uh…Uh…”

What should I say?

Was he in there when he woke up?

“If you don’t say it right…!”

The man on the left takes something out of his belt.

-Sreung

With the sound of metal scraping, the sword is pulled out.

The blade of the sword, shining in the light, looked so sharp that it brought back memories of the past.

“No, the Kalchi ending doesn’t make sense…”

They were slowly approaching me.

They’re very wary of me, and it’s the same here.

If I fail, I will cut myself with that sword.

Even if I have to die again, I will not die by the sword.

Think about it like that.

Eventually, with about two or three steps left, I face them.

“How dare you say this place is safe…!”

“Chief, look at that. The pipe…!”

The person called the leader looked over my shoulder and his face turned blue.

“Ma.. Oh my…! All the items in the Emperor’s palace belong to the religious leader…”

” Bastard!! Do you even know what you have done!”

As the leader was at a loss for words, the person next to him questioned me again.

Their attire was truly bizarre to my eyes. He is wearing clothes that look like something out of a historical drama and is holding a torch and a sword.

Also, the leader? What kind of religious organization is this?

They approached me with their grim faces becoming even more wrinkled.

This… is going to be a tough situation.

then…

“Uh! Behind there!!”

“What??”

When both of their eyes turned backwards at the same time, I pushed them away and ran as fast as I could.

“Intruder!! It’s an intruder!!!!”

Sounds behind me. And a huge group of torches running from afar.

Fuck this is fucked.

How many people ran away like that?

I ran frantically to get away from the group of torches.

I didn’t even have time to think about whether the path I was taking was right or wrong.

I just followed my instincts, ran down the hallway, and climbed over the wall.

“It will take a while for the cubs to get over the wall.”

As I glance at the wall I jumped over with all my might and mutter to myself, an unbelievable sight unfolds before my eyes.

“It’s over there. Catch it.”

People soar into the air and jump over the wall.

No, that’s not a jump…

It wasn’t enough to just climb over the wall, it came running towards me, stepping on the air.

“Ugh!!! Flying pseudo!!!!!”

I started running again in a hurry.

***

“Damn.”

I thought I was running away, but it seems I ran to where they lured me.

“Cliff…”

A steep cliff in front of you. If I fall here, I won’t even be able to recover my bones.

“That’s it!”

And there are countless people behind me.

They were holding torches and swords and were coming towards me, out of breath.

“The price for disturbing the emperor’s palace will be paid with death.”

In the end, if you get caught, you die.

Well… there’s nothing we can do about it.

Will I die like this, will I die like this?

It would be easier to die in one hit.

Goodbye, this dimension. Although I don’t know what it is.

I threw myself with all my might.

“Uh!”

A voice that was unexpected.

I am falling endlessly downwards. The sound of the wind passing by your ears, the air resistance hitting your face.

If it falls to the ground like this, it will definitely turn into a mush.

I struggle to see if I can even grab a branch.

Then I felt something had changed.

“What is the falling speed..?”

The falling speed subtly slows down.

I struggle again.

The speed gradually slows down, and it steadily goes down the cliff as if gliding.

“Hahahaha!! It flies. I am flying!!”

I scream with joy in an unbelievable situation.

good. I don’t know what happened, but I survived. Now, if we just find the right landing spot…

-tuk

“Huh?”

As the posture collapses, the stable glide becomes distorted.

Body falling again.

“Ceeebaaal~~~”

Like the exit scene of a third-rate villain, I fall down like that.

***

Yunnan.

The rain that started falling did not stop and poured day and night.

Tents were placed around a cave on the hillside, which resembled a military camp.

“……”

A man was climbing up a tall tree using a branch as a stepping stone.

Although he might have stumbled in the pouring rain, his posture did not collapse.

His eyes stayed in one place, watching something flying in the distance.

And when the object came close, he held out his hand.

– Pudduk

With a flapping sound of wings, the crow climbed onto his hand.

After opening the note tied to the crow’s leg, he remained silent for a while and then jumped down.

Even though he fell from a high place, he landed lightly on the ground.

“Are you inside?”

“Yes. You are still inside.”

When I asked the guards standing at the entrance of the cave, they bowed their heads and answered.

He took a deep breath and entered the cave.

The cave had traces of being artificially widened here and there, and resembled a well-decorated villa.

Who would think that this is a place where you can only stay for two days?

The man put one knee on the ground and bent down.

“Meet the leader.”

The man spoke into the darkness far away.

And then there was silence for a moment.

“Why are you trying to break our rest? Sword Demon (劍魔).”

The man was startled by the slightly annoyed voice, but soon caught his breath and opened his mouth.

“I received a call from the school.”

“What contact? If it’s a frivolous story, I’ll hit your head and the guy who sent it at the same time.”

“In the imperial palace…”

“…In the royal palace?”

“They say there was an intruder in the Emperor’s palace.”

“…What?”

“And there was also a story that the bedroom was destroyed by an intruder.”

– Boom

The atmosphere begins to vibrate.

The tremors spread through the darkness and shook the mountain.

Trees with weak roots fell, and as a result, soil began to be swept downward.

Everyone would think it was a natural phenomenon, but the man clearly felt the presence of a person beyond the darkness.

Blood was already dripping from his nose.

The vibrations still continued, and his bleeding did not stop.

– plod trudge

Footsteps are heard from beyond the darkness.

The footsteps came closer and closer, and the man closed his eyes as if preparing for death.

A huge presence. The pressure is so pressing on me that I can’t breathe.

“Open your eyes, Sword Demon.”

“I obey the words of the leader.”

The man opens his eyes with difficulty and raises his head.

– Boom!

Soon, the man falls face down on the floor.

“Who. I told you to raise your head, right?”

“Sorry.”

“Is there a spirit demon?”

Let’s call the leader. The man’s shadow wriggles.

Soon, a woman in human form answers the leader’s call while kneeling on one knee.

“Return to main school.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Sword Demon.”

“…Yes.”

“Don’t leave the wires to you. Open the road to Anhui before I return.”

“I will honor your name.”

“Now raise your head.”

A woman wearing a black uniform and white outerwear is looking down at a man.

Jet black hair tied back, blood red eyes.

And a gold earring on her left ear.

“What does the security manager say he did?”

“First of all, they say he was locked in prison.”

“Yes, you should not be punished carelessly.”

With a deep smile, the religious leader said.

“They are the ones who failed to protect the disciple’s sleeping quarters. I myself will tear limbs from limb and burn out eyes.”

Black flames spew out fiercely behind the pontoon, heating the air in the area.

To that strength that cannot be explained in words, the man bows his head again and submits.

“Everything goes according to the will of the Heavenly Demon.”
