unfamiliar earth, unfamiliar landscape 1

'What the hell is wrong with that?'

I must have opened the gate to Earth.

Ten thousand years ago, I felt the same way when I was sucked into a sudden crack.

The present desperate situation has complicated my mind.

"Kieeeeeee!!"

The green monsters, who are still on the hunting ground, shout out a bigger roar. Then I swung a crude sword in my hand toward the rain.

Ugh!

"Kii Yi Yi!"

The arm of a green monster falls to the ground on a black blade that is swung in an instant.

The rains bounce around, wielding the sword made by the power of the blade.

It is said that most of the Magi of the Great War were sealed, but he was the Demon King who ruled all of Nine Heaven and Hell.

There was nothing I could do against such a petty monster.

'Let's get rid of these guys first.'

Monsters rushed to die screaming, and there was no time to think differently.

The rain looks at the green monsters running from all sides with deep sunken eyes.

Living as an animal emanated from his body.

"Queek?!"

The body of the green monsters who received his livelihood frontally trembled.

'Eight.'

If I could use the full power of Almighty War, I could kill it by releasing the energy lightly without having to move my body, but now I can't.

"It's been a long time since I moved like this."

His feet hit the ground lightly.

The blade of the Magi slashes the throat of the green monsters, avoiding the attack of the green monsters as if they were seizing.

Ugh!

"Cheyenne."

After countless combat experiences that had accumulated over the last 10,000 years melted away, the green monsters rebelled against the movement and became luxurious corpses.

String.

[You have successfully defeated a grade E Common Monster Goblin.]

[EXP increases.]

[Level increased to 3.]

'Level up?'

When I killed all the green monsters that attacked me, Goblins, I saw a blue window in front of my eyes again.

Once again, I opened the status window and saw that the level of 1 had risen to 3.

'The stats are up.'

Increases STR, HP, and AGI stats by 1 depending on the level-up.

It wasn't just numbers. I felt a slight but stronger sensation as my stats rose.

"This isn't important right now."

It wasn't important to level up and stats up.

It was more important to check whether this was the right place or not to live because we couldn't do it.

"Wow, I wish I could use Alocesse's power at this point."

Thinking of his power to fly freely through the sky, he smiles bitterly.

The power of perforation consumed more magic than I thought because it even ignored the laws of inertia and moved the air.

With the number of magi he now had, it was only possible to run high.

Rain approaches the bodies of Goblins with their necks cut off.

'I wish there was some information I could get.'

What he needed now was information about this unidentified world.

Rain reaches out to the Goblin corpses and opens its mouth with a loud voice.

"Prey."

The power of predation.

The absolute power that made him ruler of heaven and hell was revealed.

The black magic that came out of his hand covered the bodies of the Goblins.

Kwaddhhhh!

The size of the black energy that covered Goblins' corpses decreased with a gruesome sound.

Information about the Goblins began to flow into his head.

The power of predation alone could not even read the subject's memory.

All we can tell by the power of predation is biometric information.

Goblin's physical characteristics, habits, and various information came into his head about how he lived and where he was weakened.

However, there was no reliable information on who he wanted to be in this world.

"Damn it."

It was when I spit out a short curse on my sad heart.

"Huh?"

I felt a very familiar energy from him during the energy that is being absorbed by predation.

'This....'

It was a trace of energy that could hardly be felt, but it could not deceive his senses.

Rain's eyes sparkled.

'Wait.'

There was a very small amount of Magi in Goblin's body.

String.

[Magi stats +1.]

Then a message window came to mind that Magi stats had risen as if wedged into his speculation.

Along with that, I felt a feeling of growing maggots in my body and getting darker.

"... damn it."

Despite the increase in maggots, it was a rough curse from the mouth of the rain.

Magi's existence in this world, the energy of hell, meant that this place was more likely than not to be Earth.

'No.'

I was restless in his face.

The only reason he survived hell was because he hoped that one day he could return to Earth.

An endless battle. All these years of desperate struggle among demons who have no interest but to kill their opponent have passed through his head like a machete.

"You can't do this."

Greater frustration struck him than he had in the battle against the Demon Duke before he died.

It was then.

"Arghhhhhh!"

A scream echoed from afar.

The snow of the rain, which was in frustration, flashed.

"This is…."

It wasn't the voice of demons or monsters.

He was intuitive. This scream was human.

That too...

"Woman."

The body of the rain trembled.

An exhilarating melody was conveyed on his whole body.

It seemed as though a scream echoed through his ears.

"It's a woman!"

If anyone heard me, I would call myself a pervert, but there was nothing to say.

But now he couldn't afford to keep his human face.

It was 10,000 years old.

For 10,000 years, he never even saw a video of a woman appear.

It was rather strange to stay sane.

Kung!

The rain rushes in the direction of the scream, kicking roughly.

The power of speed.

The power used by a demon named Valeport was manifested through his body.

The black magic that came out of his body was bound to his leg.

Magi decreases at a rapid rate and his body is shot forward like an arrow.

It was a horrible speed based on humans, but even now it feels too frustrating to him.

'Even if Margie was enough!'

If only the Magi of Almighty could be used, it would be able to move at a speed close to instantaneous movement.

I couldn't feel the fact that I couldn't use the Horsepower of Heaven at this time.

"Kieeeeeee!"

"Argh!"

I heard screams more clearly.

The screams of the Goblins who had just attacked him were also heard.

'Please, I hope you're not just a monster like Reese!'

It was nice to be ugly. It was nice to be fat.

With two eyes, one nose and one mouth, he was satisfied with it.

"May there be no tentacles! '

Thinking now of the horrible tentacles of Reese, he concentrates his whole body on his feet.

It's been a long time since I felt a sigh.

I felt more frustrated with my breathless body just because I ran a power race, not a battle.

'Found it.'

Passing through the wooded bushes, I saw a small space.

A woman, surrounded by more than 10 Goblins, hesitated to sit there in terror.

Wounded by the leg, she grabs the red-blooded leg with both hands.

"Ah…."

Short elasticity flowed from the mouth of the rains.

Seeing a woman surrounded by a group of Goblins, his body was overwhelmed.

Cool eyes on black feet raised to the waist. The plump lips, the clumsy nose, even the little dot on the left side of the mouth.

If I passed by the side of the road, I looked beautiful enough to turn my head.

But for him now, she was beautiful and not important at all.

For him now, the beauty of appearance was only a very minor matter.

"It's human."

It was human.

A human with two eyes, one nose, and one mouth.

A pure human without pus, tentacles, bat wings, and red fur covering his body.

'God.....'

I felt unbearable.

I also wanted to thank God for chewing for ten thousand years after I fell to hell.

"Krrrrrr!!"

"Phew...!"

Looking at the Goblins running around with their crude swords in their hands, the black-footed woman closes her eyes.

She looked at the sword swinging towards herself and intuited her death.

It was then.

Ugh!

"Kieeeee?!"

Urgent screams flow from the Goblins' mouths.

In an instant, the rains between them begin to massacre the Goblins with a swift movement like a predator.

"Er...?"

The eyes of the black-footed woman who had fallen were enlarged.

She looks at more than 10 Goblins with an unbelievable rainfall that is slaughtering them in less than a few seconds.

Phew!

"Kihek!"

A black blade violently pierces the last Goblin's neck.

The rain, which twisted the blade and completely cut off Goblin's breath, reached the woman who fell on the floor.

"Go, thank you."

The woman with black feet stood up and bowed her head while she was injured by her legs.

The rains grabbed her stumbling hand and lifted her.

"Ah…."

Elasticity again flowed from the mouth of the rain that grabbed her hand.

This soft touch was never felt in hell.

Humans.

I was sure that the man I wanted to see was so longing for me.

My head flashes white with a buzzing sensation.

The emotions that had endured for 10,000 years, which were forced to be suppressed, exploded at once. Exploded emotions lightly undermined his reason.

"My name is Hansulah. Thank you for your help."

She panicked as she watched the rain trembling with her hands held, but bowed once again without releasing her hands.

Rain looked at her like that and opened her mouth in a more serious voice.

"Let's get married."

"Yes?"

"I think three kids would be nice."

"… Yes?"

"W-what is that?"

Hansula stared at the rain with an embarrassing look.

I was suddenly angry at the proposal, and I didn't know if I should be grateful.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

The rain, holding the rope of reason close by, shook her head and let go of her hand.

'You need to wake up.'

It was a man we met very close to.

I didn't want to be branded crazy from the start.

"My name is Augang Woo. Did you say Mr. Han Seola? Are you okay where you got hurt?"

"Oh, yes. No big wounds... Ha ha!"

She fell into place screaming at the pain in her legs for a short time.

She falls on the floor and one of the squares falls out of her pocket.

'Smartphone.'

The snow of the rain flashed when I saw something falling on the floor.

The thing that fell out of Hansula's pants pocket was definitely a smartphone that remained faint in memory.

'Is Earth... right?'

Korean name Hansula on a smartphone.

And most importantly.

'The conversation is working.'

He was talking to her in Korean, which he used before coming to hell, not in the language of demons.

The meaning of language is that this is the Earth, and it proves that she is Korean.

'I'm glad I kept using it so I wouldn't forget.'

Over the course of time, he prohibited his subordinates from using demonic language and made them use it routinely by teaching Korean.

"Are you okay?"

Ticktock.

Rain tore the clothes he was wearing and tied her to her leg.

The notion of clothing was made of cloth that was difficult to get from a faint hell.

"Ah…. Yes, thank you."

Hansulah shredded his clothes without hesitation and slightly reddened his cheeks as he looked up at him who tied them to his legs.

When he first got married, he said he liked the three children, so his mind, which was a little wary, disappeared as if it were melting snow.

"Thank you for your concern."

If it wasn't for him, he would have been egged by a bunch of Goblins by now.

Worst case, he could have been dragged by Goblins and subjected to terrible things.

'I heard that some monsters have a desire for humans.'

In that sense, rainfall was more than silver in her life.

She felt guilty about herself, who had been on guard for a while.

'Thank you.'

Hansula nodded with a smile in her mouth.

She had only recently evolved as a player, but she was familiar with their world.

A ruthless existence that can betray anyone even if it is the same party member for profit.

Not everyone did, but it was true that players who were so altruistic that they heard screams and rushed to help out like rain were rare.

"Sit tight."

"Yes."

Rain smiled at the smile that was built on her mouth.

All right.

Getting her likes was quite, no, very valuable.

The existence of Hansulah was quite important for rainfall.

She was also the first person she met after returning from Hell, but more importantly, the information she had.

'What the hell are those monsters doing on Earth?'

There was too much disconnect between the Earth he knew and what he was now seeing.

She was precious enough to explain such distortions.

'First things first.'

Rain turned around with the smartphone she dropped. He lifted his smartphone and naturally pressed the Home button.

When I pressed the Home button, one of the information he wanted to know most came up on the screen.

[May 22, 2023, at 3: 34 PM]

2023?

It was definitely in 2018 that he fell to hell. It meant that it was the future five years from now.

"Time adjustment didn't fail. '

It was rainfall that was largely offsetting the errors of 10 and 20 years.

The fact that five years had fallen in the future meant, rather, that time adjustments had been made more successfully than he expected.

But it was only five years ago that the Earth changed so much.

"Five years ago, these monsters appeared on Earth? '

I couldn't understand the monsters wandering around in the forest because of what happened in the last five years.

'I don't have enough information.'

There was insufficient information available to determine the situation immediately. The rain turned its head towards Hansulah.

"Here, this is a smartphone that fell off."

"Oh, thank you."

"Why else would you be in this place?"

"Well…."

Hansulah, who heard him, answered with a dead voice.

"I did a solo gate hunt because I had a bit of a situation. Haha. Now that I've awakened as a player, I was foolish to hunt down a Class E gate as a solo..."

She said in a self-reproaching voice.

When I heard her say, the eyes of rain sparkled.

'Gate, player.'

Gates may refer to where they are now.

'And I woke up as a player….'

Rain recalls the state window I just saw.

The status window clearly said 'Player Name'.

"What's your level?"

Rain asked her in a natural voice.

"I woke up a while ago and now I'm Level 6. But what happened to a high-level player like Mr. Rain at the E-Gate?"

She naturally thought that rainfall was only level 3.

'Of course, if it is.'

A Level 6, she unilaterally massacred a group of Goblins who could not escape the classics.

If the level she was talking about represented a measure of the player's power, it was natural to mistake him for a high level.

"I'm here because I have a situation."

"Ah... You did."

Seeing him dodging the answer, Hansulah nodded.

It was not uncommon for a high-level player to enter a lower gate, but he had no right to catch it as long as he was trying to hide the reason.

"Ah…."

"Do you mind if I wake up?"

"Yes. I think I can walk now thanks to Mr. Rain."

"I'll help you."

"Oh, no. It's okay. I can't hurt my lungs anymore..."

"It's not just virtue to speculate."

The rains caught her one arm stumbling.

Hansula bowed her head as if she was ashamed of her faint face.

"Which way do we go?"

"Hey, over here."

She was unconscious of the shame and pointed her hand to one side without even questioning why the high-level rain might even be heading to the gate entrance.

"Let's go."

The rain slowed her down and moved her.

'Fortunately, I have no doubt.'

She would never know about her real identity anyway, but it was better to avoid looking suspicious.

'I'll be treated like a lunatic.'

I didn't want to be thought of as insane by a woman I met in 10,000 years, even beautiful.

The first button of a successful return seems to melt into the society of this planet right now.

Rain naturally hit her face with her as she thought she was limping.

"This place..."

"You've reached the entrance."

Whoo-hoo.

Going in the direction she pointed, I saw a white gate.

Its size is about 30 meters.

It was a gate that was much larger than the black gate that rained from hell.

'Then I guess this place wasn't entirely Earth.'

If the place that came through the gate is here, this forest, where the green monsters we just met life, was not Earth.

'Hell... is this place?'

It was a place that could be said to resemble hell in that it was another dimension that came through the gate.

'How this gate is being maintained.'

The rain looked at the white gate with a slightly turbid look in its eyes.

I did not see any powerful armour that would create a space crack like the armour of the Seven Demon Dukes.

"Mr. Rain?"

"Oh, yes. Let's get out of here."

Upon the caller's call, the rainfall lifts her foot at the gate.

Moving between dimension and dimension, with a strange sensation, his body passed through the white gate.

Sung Sung Sung Sung.

"Recruit a Grade E Gate Goblin Hunting Party!"

"Tanker! Where's the tanker?!"

"W-would it be okay for me to join the party if I was a bandit?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, but the rogue family is the envoy."

And he went out of the gate and saw many gathered together, shouting. It was as if I had come to the market.

"Ah, ah."

Rain once again felt a thrilling melody as I looked at the people gathered at the gate.

Humans.

Humans who longed so much were everywhere.

'I came back....'

It was a different Earth than the Earth he knew, but as familiar as the daylight landscape seemed.

It was now realized that he had returned to Earth. The anxiety that remained dimly disappeared, and the vigour spread throughout his body.

The rain shook lightly with a chilling sensation.

"W-weather."

Hansulah called out to him in a cautious voice. The rain turned its head towards her.

"If you don't mind, would you come to my house? I'd like to treat you to a meal."

She said in a voice that she was sorry, looking at the clothes of the rain that had been torn from her legs.

I deserved a monetary reward, but I couldn't afford that for her.

But I didn't want to break up with him just because I thanked him for saving his life.

"……!"

In her words, the body of the rain trembled.

A woman, who just saved her life with her own help, invites her home.

A woman for 10,000 years was a harsh stimulus to him, whom I had never imagined.

It's like...

"Brother, would you like to eat at my house? 'I feel like I've heard it.

'This....'

Rain gripped his fist roughly. Intense excitement boiled into his body.

'Wind Bunda.'

All sorts of imaginary narratives unfolded in his head.

In a warm house of imagination, he was giving birth to Hansulah and three children and smiling happily.

'The wind is blowing!!!'

A warm spring breeze was blowing in his heart, decaying as he had spent ten thousand years in hell.
