Regressor Instruction Manual Chapter 762: To The End (21)

Chapter 762: To The End (21)

Lee Kiyoung of the past wasn’t wrong. That alone made me relieved.
Just knowing that every hardship I went through wasn’t futile, I felt rewarded. Not all puzzle pieces were put together, but the ones I had collected were making the picture on their own.
‘That’s the first condition.’
The first step was to have the Creator of the pigeons come directly to our continent.
If there were no enemy to fight, the story wouldn’t work out in the first place.
I didn’t know why the past Lee Kiyoung knew about him before he lost his memory, but he would have expected that there was someone to handle with Lucifer’s intervention. When I was able to directly confirm it with my eyes, I felt a little more probable.
‘I can trust you, right? Lee Kiyoung, you scammer bastard?’
Of course, I still had questions about why he should have kept that secret from me…
‘Because the future could go wrong if I knew it?’
If not…
‘Not remembering it could have been a condition of the bet as well.’
I could think of it that way, right?
It wouldn’t be wrong to turn my thoughts back for a moment, as it wasn’t an important puzzle at that point. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to judge that it was just the background.
What was important was that their Creator had finally appeared, and I had to solve it.
Realizing that, I immediately turned my gaze, and a terrifyingly foreign light came into my sight.
The light that was emitted was enough for me to realize why it was expressed as the outer god.
The soldiers who were at war were also staring at the sky blankly. Perhaps they had intuited that something was going on. It probably wasn’t just the troops at war. The people of the continent located past the north would also be looking at that light.
The light enveloping the sky illuminated the entire battlefield and was gradually expanding his territory. I, too, stared at it with no expressions.
It was something that overwhelmed humans, like a natural phenomenon that was impossible to resist.
Most people didn’t know what that was, but everyone was probably thinking the same way, ‘I can’t resist that, I can’t fight that.’ I was also thinking the same.
Could we really fight something like that?
I mean, could we even call it a living being?
Could it even think?
What about communication? What the hell was that?
There were a lot of strange things. Although it seemed alive, it didn’t feel like it was a sentient lifeform.
Although different from humans, even those pigeons were alive, breathing, and thinking for themselves. The light wasn’t like that.
It was like watching a sudden storm or a huge wave.
It seemed that it had a will, but I wasn’t even sure about that.
I couldn’t put my finger on it, but I thought it was just…
‘…the system.’
It just seemed to be a chunk of the system, not the Creator of the pigeons or anything.
It wasn’t moving after thinking. Was it instinct? Or maybe his programming made him do that.
It wasn’t the god I imagined, but…
‘I’m sure it’s transcendental.’
The wriggling, bizarre, huge arms stretched out to Kim Hyunsung and began to look even more out of place.
-…
-Hold his hand. With that, you can be forgiven of your sins.
‘Seraphim, you moron. I don’t think it made you. Haven’t you just thought about the possibility that you were born by yourself inside there? Looking at it, that’s just a system’s chunk. It doesn’t even show up itself because that doesn’t have a will. It can’t exert direct influence.’
Its reaction to Kim Hyunsung might not be something it decided itself.
It was just running the code that was built into it. Just as Lee Jihye and Seraphim ran the dummy world, the system inside the light simply reacted
I didn’t know what it was made for or what it came into existence for, but what the system wanted was likely the same thing the four archangels did.
It wanted to find a nest where it could take root. It craved continental balance.
The program inside gave birth to pigeons and made them wander around the dimensions where it could take root. That was how Kim Hyunsung’s first timeline began, and it failed in front of the masked hero’s plan.
The pigeons were affected by the failure of the first round, but the system’s lump wasn’t.
What if the system failed?
It was bound to fix it.
After finding out where the error was, wouldn’t it have fixed itself? It might were there and ran the program once again. That was exactly what its current state was. It felt the failure through the pigeons and found a new alternative.
‘The alternative is…’
The regressor.
It had to be Kim Hyunsung, who had become complete with a slightly different meaning.
He hadn’t abandoned his humanity yet, but that thing evaluated that Kim Hyunsung could do that.
It judged that he could be a god who could make the continent and dimensions perfect, and that he could perfectly perform the program it wanted to perform.
Of course, Kim Hyunsung wouldn’t hold his hand.
‘There’s no way he would. Just think with common sense. Fuck.’
Kim Hyunsung’s wish is to resist him, not to hold his hand. Taking the pigeons’ side just because he was hostile to Lee Kiyoung…
‘It doesn’t make sense.’
-What can I get?
‘Look, our Hyunsung is upright- Wait, huh?’
-Answer me, Seraphim. What can I get by holding this hand?
‘Huh?’
-Pff… Puhhahahahahahahaha!
-I didn’t ask that as a joke, Seraphim. Answer my question.
‘What are you doing now?’
“Hyunsung?”
There was no answer. I didn’t know what he was thinking, and it was pretty hard to read the current state of his condition.
-Well. It’s up to you to think. I can’t tell you exactly what you can get. But one thing you can be certain of is that whatever you want, it will come true. As far as our Creator allows, you will be able to gain as you desire.
-I won’t join a crazy plan to kill half of the humans on the continent…
-You can find another way. That isn’t the only way to control the population, right?
‘New humanity plan, son of a bitch. That is an infringement of intellectual property rights.’
-I don’t know why our Creator chose you either, but…
‘Because you’re fucking incompetent, that’s why.’
-He will give you a lot of power.
It didn’t give authority. It delegated it. It was a process to get its program to take root directly on the continent.
-Can I change the continent?
-Haven’t I said it once? That’s possible if that’s what you desire.
‘You, fuck, what are you doing now? Did I do something wrong? Did I make a mistake?’
Had I not done any calculations that Kim Hyunsung, who lost his bond with me, would go to the pigeons?
‘What is this?’
I started to get nervous about the ridiculous situation. My head suddenly became confused.
‘What would Kim Hyunsung gain with that, fuck…’
No, rather, he had no reason not to do it. There was nothing to gain but nothing to lose either.
Wasn’t the reason Kim Hyunsung fought with foreign people to protect those in his arms in the first place?
If Kim Hyunsung could really control the situation as he wanted, he might be convinced that the worst situation he thought of wouldn’t come.
He had to know that he was passing his burden over in a different way, but…
If it were me, I would definitely think it was a good deal.
-Hold his hand, Kim Hyunsung.
‘No. Fuck, don’t hold it. Fuck…’
I didn’t know exactly how Kim Hyunsung’s current condition was. Of course, I could feel it to some extent because of the basic effect of the Regressor Instruction Manual, but I couldn’t figure out what he wanted to even think about holding that hand.
Naturally, I stood up in a hurry.
“Hyunsung.”
Whatever the case, the scenario should go as planned. There was no scenario in which Kim Hyunsung was on their side.
As I headed outside, I heard several mixed voices. I heard a voice calling me, but I didn’t have time to explain anything.
After spreading my wings, I started flying right away. Battles were still going on around the area, but it was urgent to move without paying attention.
Baaaaaaaaaang!!
-…
‘You’re not going to really take it, right? Fuck.’
-Hold his hand, Kim Hyunsung.
‘That doesn’t make sense. Fuck. Hold his hands? That’s wrong.’
That bastard was just a system’s chunk. It was nothing but a monster.
-You can have anything you want.
Baaaaaaaaang!
I felt my body blasted to one side along with that sound.
I didn’t know what it was, but it seemed that I had been hit directly. Fortunately, the defensive magic came in time, so there’s nothing wrong with me, but my body fell to the ground and immediately rolled over.
“Honorary Cardinal?”
“That’s the Honorary Cardinal! Honorary Cardinal…”
“Protect him!”
‘My bad. I don’t have time for that now.’
When I spread my wings again, my body soared into the sky. Without even knowing, my body was coated with layers upon layers of protective magic.
‘I’m going now. Fuck, don’t mess with the situation for no valid reason…’
I thought I was flying pretty fast. It seemed that I had received a lot of help in the middle, but I couldn’t check their identity one by one since I was too busy.
The Dragons opened the way by shooting the Breath, and the voices of the guild members seemed to be heard as well. I thought I heard the voices of Elena and Sun Hee-young too…
Maybe it was because of them that my body had been kept safe so far.
I was getting closer to Kim Hyunsung. The foreign light was still reaching out to Kim Hyunsung, and Seraphim noticed that I was near.
“Hyunsung!”
However, the moment I checked his eyes, looking at me…
“Ha…”
“…”
‘Ah. I was baited.’
I realized that he hooked me.
‘He didn’t mean to hold his hand. Fuck. Ah… How could I get baited? If I think about it, there’s no way he would. I overlooked his honesty. Ah…’
I had to come over anyway, but it was so ridiculous that I was speechless. Thinking that Kim Hyunsung fooled me, I felt my back tingling.
It was then that I felt great pain in my hind legs.
As soon as I screamed, I felt his hand holding my hair slowly rising.
“Trash bastard.”
Kim Hyunsung was looking down at me with a twisted look.
“Hyun… sung…”
When I was about to say something, he started to choke me.
“Kek… Keck…”
“Dirty, mean, and disgraceful… trash.”
“Kek…”
“How dare you, you filthy bastard.”
“Kehek…”
“How would you like me to kill you?”
