Return of the EX-Class Genius Villain chapter 118

Hermes’ suggestion

In fairy tales in which a hero defeats the demon king, it is rare for the demon king to appear from the beginning.

Then the story would be too short, and it would be because the hero, the hero, could not draw a story of growing up while going through trials.

So what about in real life?

Surprisingly, the situation in reality proceeds similarly to the fairy tale.

The demon king sends weak demons or monsters through the gate at first, and only shows up at the end.

Of course, there are reasons why you can’t do that.

It’s not that the demon king waits for the hero to grow up because he’s a fool.

Rule.

The law does not allow the higher world to dominate the lower world.

In general, the demon world can be said to be a higher world, and the owner of the demon king is a transcendental person in most cases, so even if the gate is breached, the demon king cannot openly step out from the beginning.

In that respect, Gehrig’s words that the Demon King had stepped in from the beginning of the war could be said to be beyond common sense.

“The Demon King came out from the beginning?”

[That’s right.]

“You just said there are no superhumans in your world.”

In order for a being of the level of the demon king to use power in a lower class world, the war must continue and the two worlds must be mixed to some extent.

“You who have lived in a world without superhumans may not be aware of it, but it is impossible for a demon king to emerge from the beginning in a world that does not match his status.”

[…] Oh.]

“You know?”

[Isn’t it because the law doesn’t allow it?]

this is a bit surprising

‘How does Gehrig know about the law?’

When you reach the pole, everything will be connected… Is science like that too?

Anyway, the important thing is not how Gehrig knew the law existed.

“Then do you know why the Demon King was able to step out?”

[It is because of the ring of God.]

“God’s Ring?”

[Yes, it was a ring topped with darkness. The Demon King was wearing it on his finger.]

… It’s a dark ring.

[The god’s ring ate whatever the demon king wanted. Among them, there was also a wall built by the law. People in our world saw the law materialized beyond the gate and sucked into the darkness of the ring, and then saw the demon king cross the gate himself.]

It doesn’t look like you’re lying.

So my heart is pounding

‘Even the law ate?’

Of course, I know the transcendent power of the Dark Ring through the story of the black dragon.

‘They said he broke the dragon’s limits set by Roden.’

But I never thought I’d be able to defy the power of a law feared by all gods.

Surprised by the power of the darkness, I slightly averted my eyes.

Arin was waving the ring invisible to Gehrig.

‘cute… … .’

ah! This is not it.

Anyway, this doesn’t really make sense.

If you have that ring, even if you become a transcendent, you can use your power in the lower world without any burden!

‘The important thing is that the cheat is mine.’

I asked Arin, thinking it was good to meet and talk with Gehrig.

“Arin, do you think that interstellar transport device made by Gehrig will work?”

[I do not know. What is certain is that even if it works, the chances of him returning to his home planet on his own are extremely slim.]

I was relieved to see Gehrig let out a sigh.

‘Good.’

We can’t let Gehrig escape like this.

But what was a little surprising was that Gehrig did not seem to be frustrated even though he sighed.

When I asked about this, Gehrig responded calmly.

[I thought so. I completed the nuclear fusion engine and airframe, but I couldn’t get the coordinates.]

“Well.”

[What… I think it is unavoidable. I guess I’m too shameless to want that far.]

‘Are you saying I gave up?’

I appreciate that Gehrig stays, but this kind of atmosphere is a no-brainer.

‘It’s difficult to lose motivation.’

I don’t think magic power is unconditionally the best anymore. Because I’ve experienced the power of earth’s scientific artifacts, such as airplanes and smartphones.

However, that Gehrig is a great scientist who created a vessel that makes it possible to move between stars.

It means that he is a scientist who has reached a level that cannot be seen on Earth.

‘I can’t just watch a guy like this play and eat without hope.’

I heard someone say something while walking down the street in Korea.

-Gongdori is best when rolled!

It was a heartbreaking statement.

It probably means that the more you roll, the more results you get.

I want this talented Gehrig to roll.

‘Someday I might be able to take my stuff out of here.’

Of course, I am well aware of the fact that people work hard only when they have motivation.

So I decided to instill hope in him.

“There is only one reason why you cannot get the coordinates. Do you know?”

he answered immediately.

[It must be because this world is separated from the universe I knew.]

Also… … .

That’s great.

“That would be a problem that science cannot solve. right?”

[…] That’s right.]

“But I can work it out.”

Gehrig opened his eyes wide, so he added a little.

“Not that I can do it right now. It will be possible someday.”

[…] Is that so?]

“Yes, so trust me.”

[I already believe it.]

“If you’re just bored of waiting, you can try making things. If so, wouldn’t it be possible to create something like a door that can connect my world and the universe by chance?”

The emptiness disappeared from Gehrig’s eyes and his will began to rise.

[Is that God’s will? that… Is it a prophecy?]

“uh… right?”

[Coincidence, coincidence plays a significant role in science. I will not give up as long as God grants me that chance. I’ll do it right.]

… Why is he doing this all of a sudden?

Anyway, I tapped Gehrig on the shoulder.

“That, yes. to work hard.”

[Thank you, God.]

Well, you can do it here.

As I ascended to the sky, I asked him a question.

“By the way, what kind of a demon king was said to have invaded your planet?”

[He called himself the King of the 3rd Demon Realm.]

“okay. If I ever run into him, I’ll beat him up.”

[thank you.]

“Repay me with hard work.”

[I will make an ingenious object and present it to God.]

“Well, don’t expect it.”

After nodding my head to him, I climbed up into the sky with Arin and disappeared.

“Did I do well?”

[As expected, master it!]

“Arin did well too.”

[Hehe.]

He said while slightly pinching Arin’s cheek.

“The power was absorbed, but it seems that the memories are not perfect.”

If that’s the case, then there’s no way that Arin didn’t know the 3 Demon Kings who used the Dark Ring.

As expected, Arin lowered his head as if the grass had died.

[yes… … .]

“Well, what’s important is the past, what’s important is the future. You didn’t get any memories though, did you?”

[That’s right.]

“That’s it.”

[Sorry for not being helpful.]

“Ugh! don’t say that Are we supposed to apologize to each other?”

[That’s not it, hehe.]

Arin had a smile on his face as if his mood had improved.

It’s cute.

“If there is another villager like Gehrig in the future, let me know.”

[Do you think there are other residents like that?]

“The inhabitants of my world have something in common.”

[You mean it was swallowed up by darkness?]

“Yeah, I don’t think the former owners used darkness on anyone. There’s no way you could have used the darkness even on an enemy you could easily kill, right?”

Arin widened his eyes.

[I really must be!]

“There’s no way the guys who owned the dark sword or ring were mediocre guys. The inhabitants of my world mean that they are enemies who have had to use darkness. Not all of them are like that, but I don’t think there are many exceptional residents.”

[ah… … .]

“So take a good look.”

[Yes, Master!]

I left Arin and came out of the bracelet.

Looking at the clock, two hours have already passed.

“Is your father here?”

Read at noblemtl. com

Going downstairs, I see my father entering the house at the same time.

expression is not good

‘Did things go wrong?’

I approached my father with the brightest face possible.

“father.”

A smile was drawn on my father’s face as he turned his head.

“Martin, have you met Loki?”

“No, where did you go? You have worked hard until late.”

“It’s me, I just came from a meeting, so what… Earthlings are worried.”

I can understand why my father’s expression was not good.

“… What did the refugees decide to do?”

“I decided to accept it. The gate is too small for the number of people on Earth. As soon as the sun rises, the gates will open.”

“It ended up like that.”

Involuntarily, a sigh comes out.

‘The fate of the earth changed when I intervened… … .’

After all this, somehow it seems to be going as Roden said at the beginning.

‘Roden’s intention was to reinforce Roden’s defenses by accepting talented people through the gate if the Earth is destroyed.’

In order to prevent that from happening, I signed a peace treaty with Earth, and the Pandemonium suddenly opened up… After making Pangea my own and defeating all the catastrophes on Earth, I finally had only one left.

Even so, it seems that the end of the earth can’t be prevented in the end.

I thought I could do anything even when I was in the bracelet, but it’s true that I’m a little weak after facing the reality.

“Your face is not good. Are you worried about the Earth?”

“I feel like fate doesn’t change.”

If so, what is the use of all this hard work?

No matter what I do, after Earth, Roden will end up like the one I saw in the vision.

“Not like that. Hasn’t much changed from what you saw? Just because the results are the same doesn’t mean they are all the same.”

that is also true

“Above all, in the vision you saw, I was not your father. That is not your future.”

“… Yes.”

A bloody laugh came out.

“Just a little… I must have been tired.”

“That’s why I have friends. Lean on your teammates sometimes.”

“I have already done enough. So, please lean on your father as well.”

“haha. yeah, don’t let that happen.”

As I smiled face to face with my father and controlled my mentality, I could see my younger siblings running after hearing the news of my father’s return.

Yeah, I can’t be weak for my family’s sake.

* * *

After enjoying a simple tea time with my family, I came back to Earth.

“Please let me in!”

“Wait until the sun rises!”

Even though it was dawn, the area around the gate was as bright as daytime, and the atmosphere was extremely formidable.

Looking up at the sky, I see a thick black fog.

It just happened like this in less than a day.

We realize that the destruction of the earth is approaching.

‘The speed at which the fog spreads faster than I thought.’

I immediately went on to create a fantasy door.

“Well?”

There was no Loki at Kanghyun’s house.

Instead, there was a young man wearing a hat with wings and rudely wearing shoes inside a Korean house.

He had a similar feeling to Loki or Apollo.

‘It’s a god.’

He looked at me while dozing off and his eyes twinkled.

Not figuratively, but for real.

[You are Martin!]

“… Who are you?”

[I… It’s Hermes!]

“God, right?”

[right! Apollo, who fought against the ‘existence of the outer gate’ with you, is my brother!]

… He is a god with very high tension.

by the way.

“Where is Loki going and are you here?”

[Loki? Let’s see… … .]

Hermes closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them.

[Loki is now inside the gate.]

“… You mean the undersea gate?”

[Yes, I went with the traveler, so you don’t have to worry.]

“traveler?”

[The transcendent Latun.]

“ah… But how do you know all that?”

Hermes replied with a grin.

[I am the god of messengers and the god of commerce. There is no choice but to be bright with information.]

“okay. So are you waiting for Loki too?”

[no! It’s you I’ve been waiting for.]

“… why?”

Hermes looked at me with twinkling eyes for a moment before opening his mouth.

[Hey, would you like to partner with me?]
