The Villain Who Robbed the Heroines - The Villain Who Robbed the Heroines chapter 249

249─The Underworld

It is not a very pleasant sight.

It doesn’t even feel like it’s been a long time.

I have lived here for such a comfortable time, and compared to that time, my time in this world was nothing but dust.

“…… “Are you here?”

Ferzen turned his head towards a man approaching him in shabby clothes, like an old man retreating to a back room.

“Hasn’t it disappeared yet?”

“There is still some karma left.”

The master who ruled this underworld before him.

Fersen chuckled as he looked at him, whose name had now disappeared.

“How can your tricks seem to be profitable?”

“It looks good.”

“…… “

“This is my first time seeing you smile like that.”

The manner of speaking was strangely unpleasant, so Fersen sat on his throne with his brows furrowed.

Even though Fersen thought about using up all of his remaining karma, he did not do so because his karma was too precious.

Karmaraham is everything that represents the status of the god and the power related to birth and extinction.

To be precise, it was a twist in the causality law that allowed people to exercise their rights even when there was no legitimate room for interference.

In fact, reincarnating his soul into this world by putting his soul in a human body was also something that other gods, including the author, did through their own karma.

“I think it was right.”

Fersen closed his eyes while asking a question implicitly.

As can be seen from the fact that he almost lost his karma, the Underworld during the time he led was a mess, unable to even properly rein it in.

The reign of the underworld that could not be stabilized even at the cost of karma.

Because of this, he was born, led the underworld, and stabilized it.

Of course, that is ultimately the subjective perspective of one god, Fersen—no, Bert’em Elquia Erue.

“It didn’t feel right, but you weren’t willing to compromise.”

As the underworld was not properly controlled, naturally Ferzen, who was born as the next generation god, was given overwhelming karma.

However, his tyranny based on that was so capable that he established peace by consuming only about 30% of the karma he had.

Originally, the monsters had strengthened their position by inducing the consumption of karma and prolonging their lifespan, but they were unable to subdue Ferzen with a huge amount of karma remaining, so they naturally bowed down.

However, what if his tyranny had stopped there?

Fersen continued his tyranny, and even though the rotten wound was cut out, he continued to cut out the healthy wound.

“If I had been going to compromise, I wouldn’t have been born. “I was born to lead the underworld in that way, and because of that, I was unable to do anything else.”

“If you don’t maintain an appropriate line…… “The god born in the next generation will be given weak karma and will repeat my days of incompetence.”

“I guess that’s your point of view.”

“…… “

“I guess the guys up there were afraid that I, with my overwhelming karma, would continue my dictatorship without disappearing.”

The purpose of reincarnating oneself into a human body is to instill feelings of compassion, joy, anger, and sorrow, and to instill goodness in the government.

Yes, the former master of the Underworld, whose name has now disappeared, may have sincerely had that intention.

The other gods involved here would never have been like that.

While he was away in the Underworld, he probably hoped that the monsters would swell in size.

The monsters also agreed to this, so they descended to this world as many as five times without any consequences.

To prevent his own death as much as possible, delay his awakening to his true name, and tie him to this world.

“It’s best to trample on those things when you have time. Doesn’t the peace in the Underworld now prove that?”

“Your method may have made peace quickly, but it would not last very long.”

“…… “

“You and those who stay above do not know that eternity does not exist even though we have lived for eons.”

Now.

“What about just me? Even though we have lived for as many eons as you, aren’t we about to disappear? “You believed that if you could maintain this status quo, you would be able to bring about eternal peace in the underworld, and because they also believed this, they were afraid and agreed with my opinion, reincarnating you in this world.”

But.

“There is no such thing as eternity. The law of causality does not allow that, and announces the comfort of the end to all beings someday. Haven’t you seen a lot with your own eyes over the past 25 years in this world? From our perspective, the time that beings in this world live is nothing more than dust, but in other words, it is the beings in this world that have dismissed our birth and end.”

“…… “

“I just hope you can make up for what you lack there.”

If only that were possible, even if it couldn’t last forever.

I guess I can hold on to something close to eternity.

“Isn’t it good for you too? “The master who will rule the next underworld will only accept and eat the by-products.”

Ferzen snorted lightly as he looked at the man whose name was forgotten, who ruled the underworld before him.

“I am the one who has been to this world. “Why are you all complaining like old bastards?”

“…… “

“I will ask you the last question.”

In front of the pantheon, Fersen stands up from his throne and looks down at him.

“From your point of view, don’t you have any regrets about the existence of the country you wish to change?”

“There is none.”

Fersen looked away as he heard his voice give an immediate answer without even the slightest thought.

“Okay. Is it…… “

If the answer is the truth without any lies.

“Let go of your hands and just watch quietly.”

Finally, Ferzen turns his back and gathers a vast amount of karma to violently pound on the air.

Kwaang──!

Then, a line was drawn in the empty space where nothing existed, and the crack expanded at a rapid pace, causing distortion of space.

「 Be, Bert em! 」

「What are you doing now! 」

The urgent voices of the gods staying in heaven, not the underworld.

Hearing that, Ferzen did not reply, but ordered the monsters who were bowing their heads to stand up.

What a mess──!

Then, it completely tears apart the distortion of space and forcibly forms a path from the underworld to the heavenly world.

“You wouldn’t know it if you looked at it. “I will come to twist your heads.”

The gods of the heavenly world were shocked by Ferzen’s words that he would try to recreate Ragnarok with his own hands.

On the other hand, I also harbored intense fear.

Because the amount of karma Fersen possessed was enormous.

Because the power of the top monsters he subdued was powerful.

「 Wait, wait! 」

“You b*tch, shut your mouth. It won’t be a nice death. “I will leave behind a trace of karma and throw it to the monsters, so please wait quietly.”

The goddess of the realm who oversees her protection ── Remembering her who bestowed her blessings on Ciel Midford in this world, Fersen ground his natural thread.

Sigh!

And sensing the clear murderous intent contained therein, the goddess in charge of guardianship made an unsightly sound and trembled without realizing it.

「Well, it will cost you a lot of karma too! That can’t be considered a benefit, can it? If you want something from us, let us know! 」

“Isn’t it a loss to shorten her own life just to vent her anger? 」

Wiggle.

The monsters who had received Fersen’s orders and were preparing to immediately climb up to heaven trembled in a different way at the sound of their voices proposing a compromise.

If it was the Fersen they knew, they would have ordered the advance without even listening to those words.

An ominous feeling hovers over her as she looks at Fersen, who stands still and remains silent for a long time.

In fact, from the monsters’ point of view, even if they were sacrificed in this war, it would be good news if Fersen’s influence was rapidly reduced and the leash he had on him was loosened.

While he is staying in this world, is it to buy time for themselves to increase their strength?

It was certainly not a bad thing, but the ultimate purpose of the cooperation was because it was expected that the returning Fersen would definitely start a war like this.

“It’s what you want…… “

And as if to clearly prove the ominous feeling, when Ferzen, who was muttering lowly to himself, raised his head, the monsters clearly sensed that something was wrong.

“If you really want to do that, use up your karma again to send me back to this world.”

「 …… 」

There was no answer from heaven.

No, because the demands he presented were so unexpected that I couldn’t answer.

Of course, even though it was an unexpected range, it was difficult to readily accept it.

Putting the soul of a god of such stature into a human body and preventing him from realizing his memories would have consumed more karma than one could imagine.

In fact, even that did not work out, and Ferzen, who was reincarnated as a human, suffered from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder from his birth.

…… So, for this request.

Wouldn’t you want to fix all those flaws?

You may even be asked to preserve some of your memories.

We need to prevent the resulting collapse of the body, so in short, not everyone in Ferzen will die.

It was as if he had given a sentence to select a few gods who would be sacrificed, exhausting their karma by bearing all of that.

“I’ll give you half a day.”

Finch!

As he spoke, Fersen unconsciously felt unfamiliar.

To God, time has no meaning.

Because the passage of time did not mean lifespan for them.

But when he saw that he was referring to a clear time, Fersen noticed his strangeness.

Yes, the name has been forgotten──as he said, who ruled the underworld before him.

Because he lives for eternity, he believed that eternity would naturally exist, but he…… Maybe it’s because he realized he didn’t.

Finally, Fersen turned his back and took a step forward.

And then the former master of the Underworld, whose name has been forgotten, who was watching Fersen, opened his mouth jokingly.

“Didn’t you say it was nothing?”

“…… “

“I definitely accepted it that way.”

As he said, human life—that mortal time was nothing.

The life of Lee Seo-jin, who has lived for 27 years.

Fersen’s life for 25 years.

Compared to the eons of time he spent here, he is nothing but dust.

But Fersen knew better than anyone else what meaning those nothings had for him.

Ttogak.

I took the step I had stopped and answered him.

“It’s nothing.”

But at the same time.

“It’s everything.”

That is what Berthem Elquia Erue realized through his life as a human being living in mortal time.

As Fersen disappeared somewhere, the former owner of the Underworld, whose name has been forgotten, looked back at the despairing monsters and smiled.

“Damn things. Wasn’t it good when I ruled? “If only I had listened carefully back then, that guy would never have ruled the underworld.”

The laughter of a man whose name has been forgotten, with a loud complaint, resonates loudly.
