EP.517 The person closest to the top 10. (8)
* * *
***
Dawn saw.
A translucent giant rises beyond the fluttering curtain.
A shape created by one person’s thoughts, will, and will.
But it didn’t look like Carlos.
Neatly combed hair, thick eyebrows, sunken eyes, light mustache, and… Even fancy formal clothes.
Facing an overwhelming presence, Dawn called its name without realizing it.
“Augusto Pinochet… .”
Chilean dictator.
A traitor who overthrew a government established through a legitimate vote through a coup.
A massacre who drove his countrymen into the World Cup stadium and murdered them.
A power addict who built camps to kidnap, torture, and murder those who opposed him.
And a man-eater who ate elves in the name of a wealthy nation and strong military.
The Chilean dictator, who disappeared when the Santiago Portal exploded, slowly turned his head to face the dawn.
Eyes that are not only solemn but also intense.
Those eyes were so creepy that it made my fingertips and toes tingle.
However, Dawn, who had already met the world’s greatest dictator twice, smiled and made eye contact with him.
“This is absurd.”
“… .”
“It’s like a previous dictator who made something with his own true intentions.”
No answer came back. Carlos slowly rose from the ground, and he entered the giant’s body.
And the badge hanging on his shoulder suddenly went crazy! It stretched and was draped over the giant’s shoulders.
It looked like it was Augusto’s item from the beginning, as it matched his formal clothes very well.
Anyway, Dawn said, making Juwaiez’s flames grow even louder.
“It may not be the heart of a son who misses his father, and it is not like he inherited his true intentions… “Was your target a dictator?”
“Not a dictator.”
Carlos answered. He said, looking up at the giant figure that contained him.
“He was a prophet.”
“… .”
“This cruel reality… “A prophet who realized before anyone else the cruelty of reality, something that socialists struggling in poverty did not realize.”
“… “Mental victory is a disease at that level.”
As Dawn began to stir, Carlos shouted.
“A brat like you! The situation we were in! “Would you even know!”
“… .”
“We are out of foreign currency! Prices have soared endlessly! Companies suffering from default have abandoned us! The union raised the flag for its own benefit, not for the greater good! The stupid public! “We elected a socialist as leader!”
Kugugoong-! The giant stood up. A tyrannical giant as large as the dragon that was the original owner of this nest cast a shadow over Dawn’s head.
“America did not forgive us for that! The Soviet Union was indifferent! Do you understand?! The reason he was stigmatized as a dictator! “It was because of patriotism toward our dying country!”
The giant swung his foot. He had incredible speed befitting his huge body.
The naturalization of Juwayeuse and Tuskegee, two flames blocked their feet, but the huge feet kicked Dawn’s body without paying attention to the flames.
!!!!
Dawn reflexively raised her sword to block, but the difference in mass was too great. His body lifted up like a soccer ball, and he flew backwards.
I barely managed to get my bearings in the air, but a huge fist was following my head.
A fist of mana that has been compressed and refined to the point that it cannot even be compared to the mana that was spread out in a disorderly manner just moments ago!
Kwaang!!!
The ground around Dawn, who raised her sword to block the fist, was hollowed out.
Even as every bone in his body screamed, the giant did not stop and launched his next attack.
“They said that my martial arts skills were a castle built by thieves. okay! I admit it! But no matter how you build it, a castle is a castle!”
From martial arts to martial arts to simple trampling.
Pinochet’s giant, who was pressuring Dawn with a variety of attacks, at some point struck down the blade of his hand.
An attack aimed at Dawn’s head, specifically her brain.
It was a blow that even the invincible Jusashibili could not withstand…
At that time, Carlos felt something and startled, stopped his attack and took a step back.
!!!
The giant’s arm, which he could not remove, was completely cut off.
As Carlos widened his distance in surprise, the figure of Dawn, holding a sword with both hands, emerged from beyond the haze.
What kind of martial art is that? I couldn’t tell, but Carlos’s instincts, the giant created by his true intentions, were speaking.
That’s the greatest and best skill he has hidden.
“… “If I had opened it from the beginning, I would have died.”
Dawn did not deny it. When Carlos saw that, he felt an inexplicable emotion. It was a feeling he had not felt in a long time: awe.
“Thank you, 1,000 people.”
“… .”
“Thanks to you for trying to use me, for reestablishing my true intentions… I can fight again. “I express my gratitude on behalf of our country.”
After saying that, Carlos moved his hand. A posture as if holding a sword.
As soon as that pose was completed, the badge hanging on the giant’s shoulder flashed! Three colors of light burst out.
The blue, red, and white colors that symbolized Chile came together and became a huge sword in the hand of a giant.
“So now, die.”
At the same time as the giant’s sword moved, Dawn also slashed her sword horizontally.
A warrior’s martial art that has reached a perfect level.
Soon the dark red sword of dawn and the huge sword of mana collided.
There was no shock or sound.
The dark red sword cut through Mana’s sword as if there was nothing in the world that could not be cut. However, the sword of Mana was not singular.
A sword in which hundreds or thousands of mana membranes have been condensed.
Even after cutting down half of them, the dark red sword advanced dozens more. The cut three-colored mana was scattered around.
Nevertheless, it was impossible to cut down all of Mana’s swords.
Okay, with this, the winner has been decided. The sword, which still had dozens of layers remaining, pierced Dawn’s body.
Deep.
Carlos felt the sword’s mana crush Dawn’s body. The sword pierced her heart, no, her entire upper body, and threw Dawn to the floor.
A blow that would inevitably kill Stalin unless he came back alive.
Instead of watching Dawn’s final moments, Carlos turned his head towards the tunnel where Juan and Soemili disappeared.
The game is over. Now is the time to go back.
… That’s what I thought.
Until the mouth of the shattered lung opens.
***
“Is this your true intention?”
what? Carlos looked down at Dawn with a surprised face. He was crushed by the sword, but he was still moving his mouth.
“I know for sure after tasting it myself. Because of patriotism… “Wow, what Oscar Wilde said was right.”
“how… crab?”
Are you alive? Before Carlos could say anything, Dawn’s cold voice penetrated his mana.
“You crossed the line.”
Dawn said as she lifted the huge sword that was weighing down her upper body.
“Even after the economy improved, he did not let go of power, and brutally killed his citizens with conscience who opposed him. And even though there was no need to, they preyed on countless elves.”
“… .”
“It’s all your dictator and your own choice. “Even if the patriotism you talk about really existed, you were the one who threw it in the trash can and put the lid on it.”
Carlos instinctively moved the giant and crushed his sword. But for some reason, Dawn pushed away his sword as easily as if she was pushing away cotton candy.
“You already knew, right?”
“… .”
“It’s all just the dictator’s greed.”
Dawn stood up and looked up at the giant. Carlos screamed hysterically as he watched his body being played back in real time.
“no! no! He only made that choice to make his country a powerful nation!”
“… .”
Carlos swung his sword. Even though the thickness of the sword noticeably decreased every time it touched Dawn’s body, it continued.
“The Cold War! What a time we lived in! It was that kind of era! An era in which animals that stop hunting just because their stomachs are full will be eliminated and disappear! “Everything we did was to avoid being eaten!”
Dawn silently looked up at him. Then she held out her right hand, which was fully blooming, and asked:
“Do you really think so?”
“… .”
Carlos didn’t answer right away. He stared at Dawn’s hand for a moment, then answered with a crooked smile.
“Yes, I’m sure so.”
“Then I will treat you that way too.”
At the same time as that declaration, Dawn clenched her fist.
The next moment, Carlos’s vision turned black. To be precise, the hand of the dawn he was looking at turned black.
A darkness as black as death.
The darkness began to suck in everything around it. Dust, air, and even Pinochet’s giant.
Kuung – !
Where did the strength that supported his huge body go? The giant lost his strength and fell to the floor. And he was dragged straight into Dawn’s grasp.
“… .”
Carlos couldn’t do anything. Let alone moving the giant to resist, even screaming.
He stared blankly at the darkness pulling him in. And he suddenly realized something.
“This is Jin’s… ?”
It is the line that separates those who are not in the top 10 from those who are not, and the first step to becoming a superman among superhumans.
While he was looking at Jin Yi, the darkness swallowed up the giant he had created whole.
As if a monster eats people, ravenously.
get eaten In a completely different way than when he preyed on elves.
Resistance was impossible. Carlos just watched it until it was all over.
Eventually, all the mana disappeared from his grasp.
Dawn calmly grabbed Carlos’ neck.
“About a thousand people, I-”
At that moment, even the last mana accumulated in Carlos’ body was sucked into the dawn.
Mana built up through the blood of an elf hidden deep in the blood vessels.
It met with the mana of the World Tree flowing in Dawn’s veins and caused a strange effect.
The same function shared between the World Tree and the Elves.
The bridge of dreams follows Mana, and thoughts and ideas open the water.
So, Carlos read Dawn’s memories.
The connection was just like a flash of light, and Dawn threw his body in surprise, but Carlos had already glimpsed countless memories.
“So now, die.”
At the same time as the giant’s sword moved, Dawn also slashed her sword horizontally.
“Incheon’s cleaner… ?”
Soon, Carlos looked up at Dawn with fearful eyes. Because I realized what Dawning’s true intentions were.
“you you… how… What, the true intention… Seun, is that it?”
“… .”
Carlos trembled. I could tell because he lived a life more faithful to his desires than anyone else.
The true meaning of his intentions.
“You want to have it all? Humans cannot establish such true intentions… !”
Yeah, humans can’t do that. Because of the limitations of his body and his mind, he cannot do that.
The desire for sleep cannot exceed sleep time, the appetite cannot exceed the size of the stomach, and the sexual desire cannot exceed physical strength.
The limits of humans are the limits of desire. But you take the overflowing desire itself as your true meaning.
Isn’t this no different from a declaration that we will overcome the limits of existence?
Carlos felt eerie, and even more than that, a sense of awe. Just like how he once felt when he looked at the One who was like the sun.
Dawn answered calmly.
“Can not… “That’s your opinion.”
Dawn grabbed Carlos’ neck again. His golden eyes, surrounded by a haze, sparkled.
“I can do it. That is my true intention.”
“… .”
“And maybe… “You could do it too.”
“Well, what-?”
Carlos, who was mumbling absently, understood Dawn’s words. I was able to find out because he shared his memories.
“… “Instead of eating the elves, we should have joined hands with them?”
“… .”
“If you kill and eat livestock, that’s the end. But what about friends? Yes, a friend who can share your shoulder is more valuable than anything else… .”
Carlos muttered what Dawn had to say and added with an expression that made it unclear whether he was angry or sad.
“Yes, there must have been a way like that… Maybe, a way for both us and the elves to live… .”
“… .”
“But that was impossible. Lee, the cleaning lady of Incheon… At least… As long as America existed, we could not… .”
After speaking up to that point, Carlos gasped for breath and then opened his mouth again.
Did he realize something before he died? Unlike before, the voice sounded somewhat comfortable.
“my… The truth is, it helps… Are you done?”
“Yes, I’m not sure if I can do it next time.”
“Ha, wake up, enlightenment is… Something like that… soon… Available… There is… .”
At that time, Carlos spoke as if he remembered something.
“Ha, one thing, a deal… chart… Is that okay, me?”
“… transaction? “If you’re going to beg for your life, it’s already too late-”
“Oh, no… Your enlightenment, um, about… That’s it… You, in my true intention, have enlightenment… As I said, I also… There is something I gained from you… I’ll give you that… .”
Dawn said nothing and took her hand off his neck. Carlos, who had already absorbed most of his mana, let his body go limp and continued speaking.
“Dae, Dae-sin, Incheon… “Please tell me.”
How many memories have you glimpsed? Dawn was going to break her neck like this, but then changed her mind.
The next moment, the words that came out of Carlos’s mouth were all too familiar.
“Moka, Dick, to.”
Mocha Dick, that was Jangman’s name when he was a smuggler. Dawn narrowed her eyes.
“… “Tell me.”
“By stopping him, giving him… Thank you… all… Santi, Agoe… Ah, it’s still raining… Get off… .”
Rain in Santiago? Carlos didn’t explain what that meant. As if he was regretting his remaining breath, he spoke his next words.
“And the name of your martial art is…” In the hawk, Mencius… there is… .”
“… Mencius?”
“Yes, I saw it in your memories… You already have… .”
That’s where his words ended. His eyes became cloudy, and his head was lowered.
Dawn looked down at him with calm eyes that were neither sad nor joyful.
And when someone’s footsteps were heard from the other side of the passage, he ignited the fire of Juwaiez and covered the body.
It was a very meaningless ending for someone who called himself a top 11, and who really stepped into the realm of top 10.
