Colossus Hunter - Chapter 331
The front was dark.
Everything was invisible.
Long time, I fought with the dark.
I fought solitude.
I continued to fight and fought with the empty ones.
-Are you tired now?
-Give up.
-Give us the initiative of the Great Star!
There was a ten-story tower.
There were gods trapped in the tower on the tenth floor.
I could not see anything, but I could not feel it, went up to death.
My head seemed to be empty. No emotions, no thoughts.
Nothing but the idea of just going up.
The gods continued to deceive me. Made it give up. Fight, fight again, exhausted.
The fifth floor like that. I was stuck.
No longer climbed.
-It is the limit of man.
-No matter how strong humans are, they cannot but take their divinity properly.
-You too will fall. Like we did.
I started falling again.
From the fifth floor to the fourth floor.
From fourth to third floor.
From the third floor to the second floor.
From the second floor to the first floor.
From the first floor to the bottom.
They were mighty men. Greedy beings were. Empty, I could not win even them. Too many of them had ‘up’.
Dark people. Their curse ate me. The regression of time has shackled me.
Since then I have been crouched.
Still crouched, eyes closed.
How much time has passed.
Thump!
Someone knocked on the wall.
Thump! thud!
without a break.
Thump! thud! thud!
It was loud. Why is it so desperate?
-I need you. Only you can save us.
Finally, a spear through the door pierced my heart.
I looked up and saw a familiar face.
-chills. Your name. I do not forgive you. But forgive me. For my children. for me. And for you.
Oh Sung?
Was that my name?
-The children want to see my dad. Grow up and grow nice. In the meantime, I could. But it’s hard now. I remember when I closed my eyes. Even if I open my eyes, your shadow is falling before me.
Why is this woman so sad?
Why do we weep?
But I was sick when I saw the tears. The chest which pierced the window came to hurt.
-Children’s names are Alice and Gram. Children need a dad. I can’t care for them all by myself.
Please, please.
The woman hugged me.
It was warm. It was cozy.
When I lifted my head and opened my eyes, the woman disappeared.
And I woke up again.
began to climb the tower.
Lyra Diablo.
Gram. Alice.
Kim Min-sik. Itaqua. Igner.
Yoo Seo-hee. Syria······.
······.
······.
Oh, Sung.
The memory was revived.

The climber must be godly.
It must be clean, and it must exist.
Those without these three qualifications cannot climb the tower.
I fell from the tower and lost my last existence. my name. The significance of my existence. But after the appearance of Lyra I found my name again. I knew the significance of my existence.
“Do you want to climb this tower?”
The first floor. There was a sun king.
No. To be precise, it is the Sun King of all generations. He killed me and was waiting for me on the ground floor.
“It would be better to fall back. This power is too big for you. I will drive everyone to ruin. ”
“Can’t wash maggots because I’m scared.”
Life is a series of challenges.
I quite agree with this.
Anyway, it’s something to do.
The world was to be destroyed by others.
challenge. Like the trials I’ve won so far.
“Future choice didn’t get this huge power. Not even Uriel Diablo, but a sham you will climb the tower. ”
Fake. The man who overturned the mask of Uriel Diablo.
Are you saying that?
Uriel Diablo used the power of future choices. Found me for a hundred years and walked everything to my possibilities.
And the Sun King of the squadron also used that power to gain its place. Eventually defeated me, but if he defeated me, neither Doom, nor Zero, or Arheim, could not afford him.
Even he is hesitant in front of the “great star.”
“Even if you had time regression, you weren’t the subject. It wasn’t a fake life. ‘
Ah. right. Neither repentance nor Uriel Diablo was my will. It just happened.
But I did my best in the given situation. Outbreak. Like that if you step on the earthworm, it will wobble.
“Fake cannot be real. Would you be familiar with it? ”
The dark people.
They were real but became fakes.
Because of the regression I and Min Sik experienced. Since
they have planned to eliminate all the real things in order to be real.
It was the beginning of a grand narrative, but the ending was not beautiful.
I opened my mouth slowly.
“There are people waiting for me.”
“I have people to keep.”
That’s it.
That’s enough.
I passed the Sun King of all generations.
The first floor was just a test to glimpse my will.
He can’t stop me.
-That will never climb this tower.
A word stuck in my ear like an echo of a curse.
I do not care.
No matter who says what I’m going forward.
As always.
The second floor.
Odin’s Room.
There was a great Master.
A giant overlooking me with two wolves on each side.
He got rid of all my feelings. Visual, auditory, tactile, taste and smell.
It is his trial that stands up and stands up invisible and inaudible.
-The climber must be a completed one. Are you finished yourself?
Completed. What is completion?
If everything was done, I was not done.
Odin, however, said that the tower could only be climbed when it was completed.
I ask me
Am I finished?
I will be synonymous with incompleteness. Every power I had, every relationship, every causality was unsafe.
Invisible and inaudible I spent a long time.
Conference on themselves. I had time for reflection.
However, no matter how much time passed, the meaning of “completion” could not be understood.
Maybe it’s not finished. Or does it mean that perfection doesn’t exist in the first place?
One thing is certain.
‘Because it’s imperfect, there’s something more beautiful.’
Uriel Diablo. These myriads of causals, from him to me and from him to me. If we were perfect, we would not have relied on each other, rather we would have distrusted each other and could not even reach this point now.
I was not alone because I lost all my senses.
I was not sad or angry.
Not mindless.
-That’s not the answer. But if what you really want is your strength, go ahead.
Odin easily opened the door.
Like I’m sure I won’t go up anyway.
I asked him before climbing the tower.
“The Jormundand hate you.”
Odin is now fake. An illusion made in Wigdrasil. I asked him, but I knew I couldn’t find the right answer, but I had to ask.
Odin dropped Jormungand from his world. Jormundand fell to the ground and became a giant Daemon monster that encircled the world, but he had a fierce hatred of Odin who had dropped him.
-Destiny can not be avoided.
Ambiguous answer.
-So will you.
He just sat without power.
Did you give in to destiny?
This tower is not a tower of completed ones. It is just a tower of greed that imperfect people have gathered and gathered with their desire to be perfect.
I turned back and walked out again.
No one knew whether I would give up and sit down as their curse.
