Solo Leveling (Only I Level Up) - Chapter 458
After carrying the schoolbag on his back, he nodded sharply.
“okay!”
Cheng Jin-Woo’s smile became even brighter.
a little longer.
Wait a little longer.
If the time I cherish now is not going to cause anyone trouble, then please allow me to stay a little longer.
‘As much as possible……’
The steps to walk out of the classroom with my friends are very light, but extremely heavy.
The sun hanging over the mountain behind the school dyed the entire sky orange-red.
Cheng Jin-Woo stopped in his tracks, and seeing that he didn’t keep up, a group of friends also stopped.
Looking at Cheng Jin-Woo who was staring at the sky in a daze, one of them couldn’t help asking.
“Xin Yu, what’s wrong?”
“There will be no place if you continue to dawdle.”
These boys, what are you urging…
“Come on, come on.”
Seong Jin-Woo caught up with the children who were walking ahead.
The children discussed the outcome of today’s game with full anticipation.
Although he didn’t participate in their discussion, Seong Jin-Woo could still feel their excitement.
that’s it.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Cheng Jin-Woo walked on this road with his friends after a long absence.
Laughing and moving forward.
Chapter 246 [Special Part 3] Goodbye (2)
After entering the dimensional gap, Cheng Jin-Woo had a habit that he didn’t have in the outside world.
It is to record what I saw and heard in those days.
It’s not the kind of great idea that I want to preserve the death struggle between myself and the king in writing.
The dimensional gap is a space of “nothing” that is very similar to the resting world.
There is only endless darkness in this empty world, and there is a kind of silence that makes it difficult for people to persist if there is no battle.
But it’s not just because there’s nothing to do.
Cheng Jin-Woo found that after experiencing it once, the angle of seeing things will be different because of the time.
As time passed, Seong Jin-Woo could see those things that he hadn’t seen in the past.
So he wondered.
After a long time, when the memory becomes blurred, what kind of feeling will I have when I see the record written here again?
Do you feel ashamed of your actions, or do you regret that you could have done better?
Or… will you miss this tiresome war now?
That’s why Seong Jin-Woo wrote “Diary”.
rustle.
In the endless darkness, only the rustling of writing can be heard.
Seong Jin-Woo who was writing in his diary burst out laughing.
‘…It’s impossible for me to miss what happened here anyway. ‘
Cheng Jin-Woo raised his eyes, and what caught his eyes were the corpses of countless monsters.
again.
Seong Jin-Woo won the war against the kings and captured the hateful ‘Phantom King’.
Twenty-seven years have passed since entering the dimensional gap.
Finally, this long and boring war is coming to an end.
Now the only remaining enemies are the Dragon Emperor and his “Legion of Destruction”.
With the expectation of finally being able to return, Cheng Jin-Woo’s heart fluctuated slightly.
‘Fortunately, the time outside is different from the time here. ‘
Now the outside world has probably only passed two years.
See you again after two years…
How much has Xiao Ya changed? Are father and mother doing well? Shouldn’t there be more explanations back then?
All kinds of questions flashed through my mind.
‘No. ‘
Cheng Jin-Woo shook his head, as if he wanted to get rid of those thoughts just now.
What should now be considered is how to fill the last page of this diary.
At this time, Berleon walked closer.
It lowered its head and reported softly.
“My lord, everything has been sorted out. The enemies are all dead.”
Cheng Jin-Woo looked around the entire battlefield.
The shadow soldiers who confirmed the life and death of the good place in front of them formed a formation, waiting for the instructions of the lord wholeheartedly.
Letting the soldiers count has not been done for a long time.
Cheng Jin-Woo closed the diary with a smile.
“very good.”
After putting the diary and pen into the warehouse, Cheng Jin-Woo walked down from the mountain of corpses.
It’s time.
The strongest enemy I’ve always wanted to see again.
In the past, I let myself, who became the Shadow King, eat the “it” of my first defeat.
Even if the battle situation was reversed due to the intervention of the rulers, he did lose to the Dragon Emperor in that battle.
And now, it’s time to meet it.
“…will not lose again.”
Cheng Jin-Woo’s eyes shone with a cold light.
Every time I think of myself going home soon, my heart beats very violently.
Plop, plop, plop, plop.
Suddenly, a wave of emotion welled up in my heart.
‘Maybe after a long time… I will really miss this war…’
Cheng Jin-Woo, who was listening to his own heartbeat, couldn’t help thinking.
Together with the soldiers who fought for the last battle, he turned around in the direction where he could sense the breath of the Dragon Emperor.
“stand up.”
Under the order of the Shadow King, countless shadows emerged beside countless corpses that had fallen to the ground.
Berleon, Bell, Yegrit, the three army chiefs and their captains stood behind Cheng Jin-Woo one by one.
And behind them, troops that seem to be able to cover the entire land are waiting for instructions.
‘……’
In this area where there is no air flow, he seems to feel the breeze blowing that declares that the war is about to end.
Cheng Jin-Woo closed his eyes and took a light breath.
Then he opened his eyes again.
The sovereign’s voice sounded before all the soldiers.
“Go and defeat the Dragon Emperor.”
To end the war.
***
Dragon Emperor sensed it.
A group of enemies with a large number who cannot perceive the whole picture are approaching here.
When did it start?
Since when did the Shadow King, who was weakening his troops little by little on the outer edge, actually mobilize all his troops to start a battle?
The corps that originally chased him were chased by him instead.
The legions have long been torn apart, and only the Legion of Destruction is left.
So it’s not hard to guess where the Shadow King’s gaze was last directed.
It’s the final battle.
‘The object is not the ruler……’
A battle of kings to end the war was never imagined, but it seemed a good way to end it.
Thinking of the battle with the Shadow King decades ago, my blood is still surging.
‘……’
The Dragon Emperor stared at a certain place quietly, while a subordinate beside him walked carefully to the Dragon Emperor’s side.
“Dragon Emperor…”
Before his subordinates could finish speaking, Dragon Emperor clasped his hands and said calmly.
“Yorgemont lost.”
The subordinates were a little surprised when they heard the news that the Illusory King had lost, but they quickly lowered their heads.
“So move away from them…”
“Need not.”
The Dragon Emperor released a red murderous aura and bared his fangs
.
“I’m tired of avoiding things. I’m going to fight them here.”
For twenty years he has been destroying the armies of kings.
The Shadow King will not give himself time to rectify.
If you can’t escape that guy’s encirclement net, then fight head-on here.
This is the choice of the Dragon King of Light.
“Ready to fight!
The king gave an order.
The Legion of Destruction quickly assumed a fighting posture.
Roar!
Ancient dragons, dragon people, and flying dragons carrying them, and finally countless dragons preparing for battle.
