I Am the Only Non-Returner

chapter 160



160 – The Strongest Helper

“You’re strong. Two seats are empty. How much magic do you need?”

“Hmm? Ah! Are you talking about the one who locked up ‘Kiba’ earlier?”

“Yes. Is the red chatterbox’s name Kiba? How would you like to go in with me?”

“hahahahaha – I refuse. I tried to open that space and somehow get him out, but I couldn’t open it. What on earth did you do?”

Sigh!!

“Ugh! Keepenical, if you do this during a conversation, you’ll be in trouble.”

Kypenical tried to cut the lower part of the explorers’ leader, Velai, once again while he was struggling, but Velai blocked the sword with the sole of his shoe and let it go, then grabbed Kipehnical by the hair and punched him dozens of times in the stomach. Was inserted.

Kuhuhhh!!

Kypenical sat down on the spot. Perhaps, if I hadn’t quickly put up a magic shield, he wouldn’t have stopped short of collapsing.

As I put up the shield, I spoke to Lingling, who was coming from behind.

“······ Linglin, can you please take that person into the shelter? And Mr. Keypenical, please come out when you have fully recovered. I know you are anxious, but I can’t help you in that condition.”

“Keuuu…

Even though he was not in perfect condition, Kifen Kal, who rushed to the battlefield to help, nodded his head with difficulty and was bitten by Lingling’s black panther and taken to the shelter.

“Did you say Bellai? Thank you. I could have disarmed my shield and killed Kypenical in one go.”

“hahahaha – I finally met someone who recognizes me. It’s not a big deal, so you don’t have to worry about it. Everything here will soon disappear anyway.”

“Well – you have to try to know that.”

“Hmm – if even I can’t do anything, it seems clear that there is no answer.”

“I can’t do anything…”

After hearing what he said, I felt tired for a moment and pressed my eyes between my eyes and closed them for a moment.

“Ha… Let’s say that. When will the guy who is either a watchman or a conman come?”

“······ hahahaha, you’re a bit too loud.”

It was quite interesting to see Bellai’s face losing his cool for the first time, and I pressed him again.

“So, when will you come? Tell me.”

“Does that matter?”

“It’s important. If you come late, I’ll go see you in person. If you come early, I’ll be waiting for you to die.”

“hahahaha… This is amazing confidence. Are you really saying that you blocked my ‘eternally expanding sword’ once? That’s not even 1/10th of my power. It’s true.”

Belai was laughing as if it were absurd, and it would be true to say that he only exerted 1/10 of his strength. But that wasn’t important to me.

‘The soldiers have recovered to some extent. I can feel the wire being slightly pushed up. And there’s someone who’s reducing the number of top seekers. Maybe this person…’

It just took time to reach a situation where they wouldn’t be pushed back even without me, and now that the situation was sufficiently stable, there was only attack from now on.

“Should we move it over there first?”

“Yes?”

Wooow-

“Ugh!!”

Since it seemed difficult to seal away Velai, the leader of the explorers, at once, he decided that it would be a priority to relieve him of some of his power.

Bellai and I cut out the entire area we were in and moved together to a place far away from the shelter.

‘He’s a great guy. Just to cut off the shared space, hundreds of millions of mana is consumed…’

“Hwiyu~ Really. It’s an extraterrestrial being. Now I understand why he told me not to let down my guard.”

“Hmm – when I cut the space, there must have been a gap, so why didn’t I attack?”

“I just wanted to take a look. The reason why so many truth-seekers place their hope in you. Now, show me. I am a very curious being.”

“Isn’t that an action that goes against the will of the watchman who is carrying out a disruptive offensive right now?”

“hahahaha, that’s right. I don’t know why I’m acting like this all of a sudden. Is it because I’m in a close space with you? That’s the only reason I can think of. It’s a being so foreign that it shakes the connection with that person… I’m really excited. That works. Come on! Come in!!”

Belai put his left hand forward and gestured for me to come in, and after spending some more of his magic power solidifying the exterior of the space I had cut out, I began to warm up.

And.

Kwaang!!

I immediately cleared the space and flew to where the guy was.

Paaat-!

“Where!”

I tried to grab the guy by the collar and end the fight at once, but the guy laughed and lightly shook off my touch. He then turned his body around and kicked me in the chin, a simple movement that went so smoothly that it made me feel refreshed.

Hissing-

Tak!

I blocked his kick with a lot of magical power in my hands, and fired a barrage of magical energy forward from his hand.

My own work ㅡ!!

“Utsutsu!! The human race definitely has good application skills. We explorers are born that way, so there are some limitations in expanding our thinking beyond what we have been taught.”

Belai consumed his magic power to block the thorns of my magic power and stuck out his tongue.

“I know that you are hiding your power. You may not be able to see the things below, but I have been watching you, the singularity of Yugi where the initialization occurred. The power that merges with that dragon. Why don’t you use it? You probably didn’t think you could beat me without that strength, right?”

“I’ve been thinking about this since I saw Kiba, but you explorers talk too much.”

“Puh-ha-! I’m sorry. It’s probably because it resembles my personality. Among the many qualities I first adopted, the most interesting one was curiosity. I want to know more about you. So come on, I’ll use that ability. Second-“

“Oh, really!”

Sigh!! Seo Geo-eokㅡ

I continued to cut out the space where Bellai was located and tried to free his body, but he was easily avoiding it.

“Can I ask you a favor? Please refrain from attacking me while I’m talking. Please don’t ruin the fun of talking calmly and thinking about each other.”

“Well, I’m not the type to talk a lot with guys.”

“Ah! Then, can I change your appearance to that of a female? What do you like? Would this be enough?”

In an instant, Bella Yi changed her appearance to that of a beautiful woman, and her appearance was that of the archdemon Ser that I had met not long ago.

“I expressed the image that came to mind when I heard the keyword ‘female’.”

The Ser that the guy was talking about even took off her upper body, fully exposing her voluptuous breasts, and the way she even made a bewitching expression made people even mistakenly think that Ser’s true identity was this guy.

But I held my spirit strong and put strong pressure on Bellai. The guy seemed to be dodging my attacks with ease, but he seemed to be struggling little by little as my attacks slowly increased gear.

Nevertheless, her face was so bright, it looked like the face of an innocent child who had a toy for the first time.

I fought him for over 1000 rounds without using the [Unification] Ability. Of course, even though there was a lot of attack and defense, the passage of time was minimal because it was a fight at a speed that far exceeded the speed of sound.

And in the end, I had no choice but to admit it.

“Ha… That won’t work.”

“Whew… Right?! Please show me that power! That absurd ability of pulling only the mental bodies of other beings across dimensions and fusing them together!!”

“·········.”

For a moment, I got goosebumps. I can’t believe you understand my abilities to that extent. And yet, the gesture of the guy who seemed anxious to see me as soon as possible gave me a very strange sensation.

Has that guy already transcended things like winning and losing, living and dying?

‘That’s not possible… I don’t know why, but they are serious about imitating the humans. Even now, his fluctuating emotions are telling me. If you feel a sense of crisis beyond your limit of endurance, you will take off that disgusting mask.’

And as the connection with the watchman faded, he seemed even more unable to control himself.

‘Once I use this ability… I wonder if I can maintain it until I fight that sentinel…’

Furthermore, I was worried about whether or not I would be able to reach the primordial beings that that watchman was guarding. It wasn’t even a question of whether or not he could simply defeat Bella.

But he had to get rid of this guy quickly somehow, so he closed his eyes, thinking of Nila.

At that time.

“Hey, kid, what are you doing?”

A familiar voice rang through my head.

“Ah… You’re here?”

“It’s already been a while. I was just eating popcorn and watching, so why am I wasting my time on this guy? Instead of finishing it quickly.”

Suddenly, the being that tore through the space I had cut out lightly sat down and started scolding me.

Jin, a handsome man with jet-black hair and a slightly sickly appearance.

He came to help.

“Considering that you were watching while eating popcorn, you must have expended quite a bit of magical energy. In fact, I had a feeling that you were dealing with the dark-blue searchers along the way.”

“Hmph! Now that you’ve grown up, the taste of being surprised is gone. Anyway, you’re trying to protect a lot of things unnecessarily. You’re weak.”

“Is that a bad thing?”

“It’s bad by my standards. I see everyone but me and my wives as trash.”

“Wow… Personality.”

“It’s noisy. Everyone lives like that except you, you idiot.”

Jin took his eyes off me, glanced at Bellai, who was looking at me and Jin back and forth with a bewildered expression, checked him, and then spoke to me again.

“Did you say he was a watchman? I heard that without qualifications, it would be impossible to even cross the boundary he set. And even I can’t have those qualifications. That was clearly visible in my future vision as well.”

Jin was speaking calmly, but there was a clear tremor in his voice. For a being with such high self-esteem, helplessness must be an unbearable pain.

“After doing some research, I found out that the qualifications were determined from birth. Unless you are at the level of [First Hero] Rosherdin, you cannot ignore the qualifications and fight him. Unfortunately, I am still an ancient It falls far short of its existence. So…”

Shock!

Jin gave Bellai his gaze once again, and Bellai’s eyes were shaking rapidly as she made eye contact with Jin.

“I will take charge of this guy. You must run straight to the guy called the Watchman. If he falls into this space, everything you tried to protect will be in vain.”

“··· Is this something that was planned in the future you saw?”

“This poor bastard won’t even be included in my future poems. So hurry up and go. I’m going to get rid of this bastard and eat some popcorn.”

‘He’s not that shabby, but it means he’s confident enough.’

Looking at me thinking for a moment, Jin held up a snack that looked quite similar to popcorn in a wooden bag and said.

“My invention following Cola.”

Pisik-

“Then… I’ll leave it to you and go tie the knot with that bastard.”

“Okay. Don’t forget to take your keys.”

“I’ve already put it on standby.”

We nodded to each other in silence and said goodbye, and I went out through the crack that Jin had entered through and meticulously sewed up the torn space again.
