My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

#249

Kang Hwan-gye (1)

Everything is mixed—the boundary between the earth and the abyss.

“…It’s difficult.”

The revolutionary, who was standing still and looking at the cracks in all directions, muttered softly to himself.

How did things end up like this?

Until a few years ago, everything was going well.

Arrangements that had taken decades were being completed one by one, and we were waiting for the end of the thousand-year-old world to finally begin.

Things started to go wrong from the very first step, the resurrection of the Immortal King.

They arranged for the ‘Fragment of the Immortal King’ to naturally fall into the hands of the greedy Marcos, and induced him to voluntarily sacrifice everything to complete it.

The same goes for the Brokoslak Clan, which held another fragment.

In fact, as long as the two fragments were successfully fused, it did not matter whether Marcos or the Brokoslak Clan took the lead.

Anyway, the immortal king born that way will turn into an uncontrollable bomb and start going wild.

‘So, starting with the Kingdom of Thalia, I wanted to shake up the West and naturally create a chain reaction.’

However, the immortal king began to act uncontrollably, and all the plans he had worked so hard to prepare went to waste.

Brokoslak, who lost his base and was at odds with Eupersch and had to be absorbed into Obaipo, was still alive and well.

Oldman, who was planning to overthrow the Tulk Kingdom at the moment when the churches and kingdoms were joining forces to fight against the Immortal King, was only watching the timing of his plan go awry, and ended up being eaten by the Immortal Army.

Nurabe, who was supposed to lead numerous monsters south from the northern mountains in response, accidentally touched an elven sacrifice and was killed without being able to do anything due to the church’s quick intervention.

‘After that, the plan continued to go wrong.’

It’s a shame that the continent-scale sacrificial ritual and the opening of the abyss gate, which I paid special attention to, went smoothly…

If even those things had failed, the next work would have never even started in the first place.

‘Besides…’

The revolutionary who was quietly examining the cracks closed his eyes and listened to the sounds coming from all directions.

The sounds of the world mixed in noise like grains of sand flowing by.

That sound was telling me.

‘…This is not good.’

The end of a great plan that has been devoted to so much effort over a long period of time.

An overwhelming, unknown death that is creeping up on him even at this very moment.

‘It’s not very good.’

If you stay like this, everything will end with your death.

I am not afraid of death, but not being able to achieve my given mission is a big problem.

I could never just sit by and ignore that.

Isn’t that the reason and everything he has lived until now?

“I can’t help it.”

It seemed like I had to make a decision before it was too late.

The revolutionary’s gaze turned to the side.

To the seed of madness that seems to come to life at any moment.

***

While Hans, who had been concentrating on research for a while, finally presented the results.

The work of the other avatars in their respective areas was going smoothly.

“It’s nice to see you again. Let me formally introduce you. “My name is Jiyoon Yoon, and I am the head of the Seoul Southern Branch of the Korean Returnees Association.”

“It’s Heinz. “I am currently serving as the representative of the clan.”

“…Excuse me, but before we start talking in earnest, I want to ask you one thing. Recently, they say a gunman wearing an opera mask is hunting criminals every night. Could it be…”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“…is that so.”

Heinz II was busy going back and forth between Earth and Outerica, organizing his forces and establishing a cooperation system with the outside world.

“Sniff! “There’s no need for you to be tired and follow me.”

“Wuhuhu— Even though it’s like this, I’m quite a bitch, right? Not only do I provide directions, but I also have personal relationships with the chiefs of each tribe. “No matter what anyone says, she is the warchief’s daughter.”

“Haha! That’s good! Still, I’m planning to travel a fairly long distance quickly, so is that okay? Even if you are a great sorcerer, it must be difficult to follow, right?”

“ah! “It’s… shameful, but if Harley-sama carries you on your back… hehehe—.”

Harley traveled around the South with Misty’s cooperation and devoted himself to uniting the tribes.

In addition, the Hubert Company was in the process of being reborn as the largest merchant in the West, beyond the top of the Tulk Kingdom, thanks to the implicit support from powerful figures in each faction.

Harris sat idle while protecting the World Tree even as a large-scale hunt for lycanthropes continued.

‘Hesperon and Horus are constantly in training.’

One thing worth noting is that it was a waste to leave the Immortal Army’s overflowing manpower idle, so some of it was diverted to the development of northern resources?

Terrible and inhumane mines, like slave camps, were built throughout the northern mountains, and tireless undead workers began mining rare ores without rest.

And the remaining minerals that were provided to Dwarf Howard as needed were flowed directly to the Hubert Company and were a great help in increasing their power.

‘Because of that, Hubert suddenly became a stooge planted by the Immortal King on mankind. Well, if the executives are satisfied with that, it won’t matter.’

Of course, even if you don’t understand it, you have to criticize it, but wouldn’t it be more efficient to accept it and actively accept it?

‘Some of the warlike executives even used it as a sacrifice to enhance Heinrich’s reputation.’

By operating an immortal army, he defeated as many powerful figures as he wanted, and in the process heightened humanity’s sense of crisis and made them more united than ever before.

Now all that was left was to strike down the revolutionary of the Rebellion Pledge, the source of all evil, and completely crush the plot he was plotting.

After that, we can slowly move into the final stage of the home theater, the ‘final battle’.

‘Of course, there’s still a lot left to do in Outerica, but that’s something that can be done regardless of the home theater. ‘I’m more interested in the other side now.’

I gathered my thoughts by stroking my chin in an exciting mood.

‘The theory is perfect. Now all that’s left is to wait for the cooldown of “Summon Other World Transmission” and then execute it.’

Needless to say, being able to go to a different world other than the one from which it was first transmitted was an incredible event.

There is only one other world where all awakened people on Earth can go.

So far I’ve never heard of an exception.

‘It’s not for nothing that returnees value their origins.’

Except for the first unique skill, the abilities and additional skills they learned were all influenced by the world.

To put it simply, it was said that magic-related skills could not be obtained in the martial world, and vice versa.

‘Kang Hwan-gye has a completely different personality from Outerica. I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of abilities I can gain.’

While waiting for the transfer team’s cooldown, I researched the new dimension to enter.

When I was preparing for my first transfer, I didn’t know which dimension I would end up in, so I collected whatever information I could, but now that I know for sure where I’m moving to, researching it couldn’t be this easy.

“what? “Isn’t this… strange?”

But during the investigation process.

I noticed something strange and frowned without realizing it.

The number of dimensions revealed so far is in the hundreds.

In general, information on that dimension is updated when returnees return to Earth and report to the associations in each country.

Of course, not everyone responded honestly, and there were quite a few who did not report it in the first place, but the global tally was still not something to ignore.

‘Why is the recent return rate so low? No, and the most recent update date….’

However, in the case of Kang Hwan-gye, the most recent information update was from a year ago.

Doesn’t that mean that no one has returned for about 10 years since then in this world’s time?

‘Salma… Even assuming that there is an unknown returner like the Heavenly Demon Emperor, I think this is too much.’

This was even more so when I looked at the statistics on the number of Kang Hwan-gye returnees.

It was probably discovered quite early on, but it was a fairly active level with the number of returnees steadily increasing since its first appearance.

‘At some point, the number began to decline rapidly and eventually reached this point.’

Several possibilities passed through my mind.

To put it simply, we could say that for some reason, the danger rose to the point where survival was difficult and they were wiped out.

-Dimension name: Kang Hwan

-gye -Registration number: C-309BK

-Dimension type: Martial World -Danger

level: Very high Survival priority

-……

Coincidentally, the information on Kang Hwan-gye in the database of the Returners Association also contained such information. there was.

Considering that the danger level of the Outerica dimension, where the demon king had descended and the continent was said to be in a state of turmoil, was ‘quite high, caution is required’, it was hard to tell what kind of demonic world was unfolding there.

I immediately looked down and looked at the detailed information on the basis for rating.

‘…When I read Salma’s memories, I couldn’t get this detailed information.’

This was partly because his spirit and body were destroyed by the Abyss and he was focusing on his connection with the Buncheonhoe, but it was also because his memories were filled with destruction and massacre.

And while reading the information from this association, I was able to confirm that the 1000-year-old devil was one of the reasons for increasing the danger of the world.

‘It seems that what I said about ‘the fear of Kang Hwan-gye’ was not a meaningless statement. … But that’s simply not the problem.’

Even if you call yourself a fear or something, you are at best an individual.

Unless you can command an army to cover the continent like the Immortal King, there is a limit to the influence you can exert on your own, no matter how wise you are.

Kang Hwan-gye’s risk assessment was a total mess caused by many factors being intertwined.

‘But that doesn’t answer the question that there are no returnees.’

Of course, being dangerous could be one of the reasons.

However, no matter how much I thought about it, it was clear that the lack of returnees was a problem of risk transfer.

Yes, for example….

‘Earthlings have not been summoned since a certain moment.’

If there had been no new influx of people, the current statistics could have been fully explained.

‘Salma returned after 20 years, when the system was sending out warnings.’

And the last time an official returnee of Kang Hwan-gye appeared was about 10 years ago in this world.

Considering that they return around 10 years on average, it could be said that the time when they were awakened and transmitted was roughly similar.

‘And that must have been the end of the transmission in Kang Hwan-gye.’

When I searched for more information, I found out that there were quite a few aspects to it.

The risk soars to ‘very high’ and the return rate decreases sharply, but soon becomes a so-called ‘closed dimension’ where no one knows what happens next.

‘Is this the newly developed dimension that is like that?’

By now, there probably isn’t a single Earthling left in the Kang Hwan world.

And like other dimensions before it, it will gradually be forgotten and remain only as a memory in the memories of a few returnees.

I don’t know why it happened, so I felt an uneasy feeling for some reason… but it quickly disappeared.

Actually, that was just a problem that had nothing to do with me.

‘Interesting. It’s a closed dimension…’

Rather, pure curiosity and some unknown intuition continued to stimulate me.

There’s an important clue right there.

Time passes while collecting information like that.

When the cooldown time for “Summon the Otherworldly Transmission” is finally full—.

“Okay then, shall we go?”

I sent an advance party to that dangerous world whose current state I cannot estimate.

“Ah… the air is better there than here, right? “Wow, no matter how I set up the barrier, it still looks like this…”

High elf Harris, who was a strong man who had reached transcendence, but who did nothing in particular and just lounged around next to the world tree.

《Achievement accomplished! You have gone beyond the permitted world and entered a new world.》

《As a reward for crossing the dimension and pioneering a new world, the special privilege “Summoning the Otherworldly Transmission” will be strengthened. The cooldown, which was once a day, is reduced by half.》

《You have achieved a great feat and had a great impact on the world. Your karma will increase significantly.》

Finally, an experienced newcomer enters the new world….

Or, to be more precise, .

It was the moment when a large company that had already grown to its full potential stepped into a fallen alley commercial district.
