Round 2 Starts With 990,000 Points - Chapter 106



106 – Towards the End

While Ymir was breaking the egg, Chaos was sitting on the throne, thinking.

There was only one thing she had been thinking deeply about lately.

Reason for existance.

Every being has a reason for being born. And because they have a reason for being born, they can live a worthwhile life.

All beings live for their own existence and display their own value. There is no being that lives for the existence of others.

But chaos, herself, was not like that. She was a being created by Judas only for his amusement.

The first time, he tried his best to destroy the world, the second time he tried even harder to destroy the world, and the third and fourth times were the same.

But the destroyed world was restored through time rewind. There was never a time when it was not restored.

So what exactly is the meaning of this act of destruction?

If we destroy the world and time is rewound and the world is restored, what is the point of this action? Wouldn’t it just be repeating meaningless actions?

“What is the meaning of such destructive behavior…?”

Because Yudae made it like this when she was made, she was acting as Yudae wanted, but as the rounds went on, she felt a deep sense of doubt.

Just as a tower that was built with great effort collapses as soon as it is completed, meaningless things continue to happen.

Those who forget the passage of time in the flow of regression would not have felt this meaninglessness at all, but she felt the meaninglessness deeply because she was a being who was not even allowed to forget.

So as time went by, I began to want to go against the Creator’s will.

But… is that okay?

Many other beings do not know the reason for their existence, but they are not. Chaos is the being that Judaea created for the sake of ‘chaos’.

There is a big difference between knowing the reason for your life and not knowing it. A being who knows the reason for living is not likely to betray the reason for living.

Especially if the world has been shattered and rebuilt over and over again, and if it has been a being that has been repeating the same actions over and over again for a long time.

Chaos was agony. She thought that even this agony had meaning. Then this agony would not be meaningless. She must be suffering this agony for some meaning.

When Judaea created her, she resembled herself, so she only had human features, but she didn’t think so. She thought that everything had meaning.

So then what on earth should I do…?

At that time, her subordinate Ma1 approached.

“Oh God.”

Chaos looked at Ma1’s bull horns and thought. Why does that guy have horns like that? Why is he female, unlike that guy?

“What’s going on?”

“All eggs were destroyed.”

“already?”

“yes.”

Normally, it takes time for the passage to open, for the intruders to get in, and for all the eggs to break apart. This is the first time it has happened this quickly.

Is there another meaning here?

“What should I do?”

“The seal is broken, so reveal the darkness. Let the darkness destroy all intruders.”

“I will do as you command.”

Ma1 nodded and disappeared. She thought as she watched his back.

Is it a good thing to move as the Creator has determined?

All of these actions are the reason for his existence that Judae instilled in him. However, for some reason, he continues to feel repulsive once he realizes that they are meaningless actions.

“… … .”

If the Intruder kills the darkness, then all the restrictions of the world will be released and you can wait for the ending to come.

That’s what Judas has decided for her to do.

If we do that, the Creator will then rewind time again.

But is that really the right thing to do?

And it’s also something that erases the meaning of everything…?

Her agony was not over.

* * *

All the eggs were destroyed. Thanks to Silver 4, I was able to destroy them much faster than I expected. As all the eggs were destroyed, the ground shook and cracks appeared everywhere.

It seems as if the environment itself is breaking apart.

“All the disasters are gone.”

“Now the real disaster will reveal itself.”

The dark surroundings shattered into pieces and shattered into tiny pieces like grains of sand. Immediately afterwards, the grains of sand began to gather in one direction as if they were being pulled by the wind, forming a shape.

It is difficult to describe exactly what shape it has. All I can tell is that it is large, dark, and gloomy. It is as big as a mountain, and resembles a shadow that seems to be deeply filled with malice.

“It’s finally time to see the ending of this novel.”

I walked towards the darkness. Silver4 was looking at the scene, and the darkness was focused only on me.

I stepped on the meteor and used the meteor combo after getting close. The darkness distorted its shape and disappeared, then reappeared. It seemed that normal attacks were not working.

I used the Meteor Fist. This time too, the shape of the area hit disappeared and reappeared.

My talent for attacking things other than physical ones doesn’t seem to work against the darkness.

Is it necessary to have Mo Ye-ji’s talent to predict the opponent’s movements?

Darkness reached out to me. The black waterfall spread out wide and swept over me like a tsunami. I didn’t dodge, but faced it. I wanted to know how much effect the guy’s attacks would have on me.

It was as stuffy as when I experienced chemical warfare without wearing a gas mask, but soon I felt comfortable. Just as my attacks didn’t work on him, his attacks didn’t seem to have much effect on me either.

This time, I gathered my strength and used the Wugukken. The darkness, as big as a mountain, shook its body here and there and dodged all of my attacks.

It didn’t seem like the fight would end easily. It seemed like it would be a long-term war.

* * *

Judaea was looking at the scene with trembling eyes.

“Okay. I’m doing well.”

With her observer’s perspective, she can even see into the darkness. She clenched her fists as she watched the fight between Ymir and the darkness.

Finally, we can break free from these restrictions.

Once Ymir kills the darkness, Chaos will do whatever it has set in place this time around.

Then you can finally return to your omnipotent self.

“No, I don’t think it’s omnipotent….”

Since I delegated almost everything to Chaos, there are many things I don’t know. But I can return my omnipotence.

“I will create a new world.”

Judae recalled the last conversation he had with Ymir. Ymir had wished to hand over this world to him. Perhaps he had grown attached to other people while living in this world.

But it is not me. From the beginning, this world is a world that I created. The main characters of this world are characters that I created. It is not easy to respect them as other objects. However, I have felt strongly that they are my property, whether in the past, then, or now.

I told Ymir that I would hand over the world to her. But she had no intention of keeping that promise. The moment all the restrictions were lifted, I would rewind the world and start a new game.

“… So I wanted the main characters to fight while sacrificing themselves…”

If you sacrifice all the main characters and fight, Ymir won’t object much even if you rewind time.

Because I can see again the beings I have become attached to.

However, if you rewind time after completing the ending properly, Ymir will react violently to your actions. He will even criticize you.

Because the beings you have become attached to disappear.

“Still… this is the world I created, so I can do whatever I want with it.”

She had no intention of completely breaking her promise to Ymir. She intended to properly reveal the secrets of the world she had come to know.

But he was reluctant to readily give up ownership of the world he had created.

* * *

I continued to fight without any meaning. I kept hitting, dodging, hitting, blocking, and then I realized that this kind of fighting was not the answer.

Perhaps Mo Ye-ji’s foresight ability is necessary.

If you can predict his movements with your predictive ability, you will be able to hit his attacks almost without fail.

No, do you need Choi Ji-sung’s cutting ability?

Beating someone up won’t work, but cutting them might.

Or what about the stabbing abilities of Han Cheol-woo or Yoo Seong-won?

I sharpened the shape of the inner power contained in the meteorite and thrust it out as if stabbing it. However, it was fundamentally different from their attacks.

Should I control the magic itself like Ha Yeon-si, or should I find peace of mind like Uyuna and attack in another way?

But even if you can clumsily imitate them, you can’t replace them.

If there was an absolute copy of Go Soo-young, it would be possible to copy that monster’s talent… .

Because I am not them.

As I thought about this, I began to think about what I could do. More specifically, what only I could do.

“… I don’t know if this is the right answer.”

I puffed up my body greatly.
