Side story. Director (Jin) Kim Woo-jin (1)

The temporarily created white space is a temporary dimension created to confine only one person.

The man walked between them.

It restrains the freedom of the body, stimulates the sense of pain, and disturbs the mind. A place full of malice.

In the middle, he was. A human whose entire body is restrained by chains extending from all over the dimension.

His body was covered with scars and his eyes were closed. A breath that feels evenly tells you that you are not dead.

The man bent his knees and faced him.

“Kim Woo-jin. You’re more toxic than I thought.”

That, Kim Woo-jin opened his eyes.

“Varian.”

The eyes that still do not die of miasma stimulate the curiosity of the man, Varian.

“I never thought you would never give up. Even if I couldn’t do it, I thought I would be able to listen to both hands and feet in 10 years.”

“I’m so glad it didn’t turn out the way you thought.”

Twilight, Kim Woo-jin’s spit hit Verian’s face. Varian casually wiped off his spittle.

“I like talented people. You’ve already proven your qualifications to the fullest. Having endured 20 years is like the peak of the dragon.”

“20 years?”

“… I don’t know how many years have passed?”

“Then how do I know the time here? Are you stupid?”

Clearly, a pure white space is not a space where you can know the passage of time.

“I would have said I would come every year.”

“Is it? I don’t have the hobby of remembering such trivial things.”

“I see, that calmness alone is enough to imitate even the gods.”

“I’m not particularly happy to be praised by you.”

“Even now it is not too late. Become my servant.”

“You’re fucking.”

Kim Woo-jin licked his lips. It felt like a cracked, dry shell.

Throat thirsty, hunger quenching your body, burning pain all over your body, and you feel your mind slowly wear away.

But even so, Kim Woo-jin laughed.

“Anyway, that means 20 years have passed, right?”

Then what do you do?

“Solve, this baby.”

Sanctuary of the Gods, Vaccine War.

After the vaccine war broke out, for the first time, someone who was neither a believer nor an enforcer stepped in.

“You are the first to come here as a human. You may know it as a lifetime honor.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Did you threaten me with a knife to let me in?”

“You are a very interesting person. If another human had dared to say such a thing to me, I would have blown my head right off, but you don’t want to do that.”

Varian smiled faintly.

Sigh, the huge door opened. The red carpet was rolled out, and the Daejeon where the gods were seated appeared.

I felt the power of the US and China oil, which I had never felt before.

The gods exude a sense of presence just by existing, and they exert pressure just by breathing.

That’s why it’s God, and because they gathered, this is the vaccine war.

However, it was Kim Woo-jin who killed two of them. There’s nothing to chew on.

“That person is Kim Woo-jin…”

“I heard you were locked up for 20 years, but the poison is still alive in your eyes.”

“Barion was killed by that guy?”

He slowly made his way through waves of energy full of hostility and intent to kill.

In the eyes of the gods, a different face appeared, and Kim Woo-jin stood in front of the three seats of honor.

Albitz.

Kalkar.

and Berry.

They are the principals in charge of this vaccine war and the parties who proposed the contract to Kim Woo-jin.

“I heard that you could do the warden in prison, but wasn’t it confirmed? Do you want to come and have a pressure interview?”

“Shut up! To those who dare to give it!”

“You’re so self-indulgent.”

“How dare a human…!”

Along with the bursting anger, the calm energy stabbed Kim Woo-jin as if it were exploding.

It was such a force that an ordinary human, or even a hero, could die in an instant.

“quiet.”

But when Albitz lightly raised his hand, it instantly became quiet.

It was a figure that could more clearly see what it meant to be given to the gods.

“Kim Woo-jin. You dare to kill a god, but you do not repent of your sin.”

“Because it is not wrong. On Earth, this is called self-defense.”

“As expected, it is as Berian said. You’re the kind of guy who will keep his mouth open even after he dies.”

“It’s nice to hear that it’s hot. How, don’t you want to fight against me?”

“Arthur, Kalkar. As long as you have a contract, you must fulfill it.”

“It’s a joke, a joke. It’s the first time anyone talks like that in front of me.”

Perhaps because they had already heard the story, unlike the gods, the gods did not show any different reaction to Kim Woo-jin’s attitude.

“To be honest, we didn’t expect you to survive 20 years without incident.”

The temporary dimension prepared for Kim Woo-jin is no different from an extreme torture chamber that gnaws at the body and mind.

Nevertheless, Kim Woo-jin endured 20 years in the end.

Thanks to that, the plan itself went wrong, but the main characters had different thoughts about Kim Woo-jin.

Killing two gods isn’t enough, and his mental strength rivals that of a god.

“You’re good at saying that you risked something that was close to impossible.”

Kim Woo-jin snorted. Somehow, he did the near impossible.

“I will make a suggestion. Are you willing to work for us?”

“I think I answered you earlier. Fuck you.”

“You have a bad mouth.”

“Is it necessary to honor a manager?”

“manager?”

“You said you were all just chosen by the Akashic Records?”

Kwajik-

table is broken A different pressure than before pressed down on Kim Woo-jin. Kim Woo-jin forcibly swallowed the blood that burst out.

“Even mercy has limits. Don’t cross the line, Kim Woo-jin.”

“Can I kill you? Are you saying you won’t be able to fulfill the contract now?”

“···under.”

“You really are the one who lived to the end!”

“You are the manager. It’s ridiculous.”

The main gods reacted differently, but if there was one thing in common, it was anger. Kim Woo-jin recognized that he could have just died had it not been for the contract.

“…God’s words are heavy. Words once spoken must be kept. That’s why you can talk like that and still have a conversation.”

“Do you think the abyss is such a scary place?”

“You’re not trying to lose a word.”

“Will you lose?”

“Not required.”

“stop. Stop wasting time and get back to the main topic.”

Albitz interrupted Kim Woo-jin and Varian.

“Kim Woo-jin, we want to do you a very small favor.”

“favor?”

“one month. give me a month Enjoy your last vacation in peace before you become the warden of purgatory.”

Kim Woo-jin shut his mouth at the sudden favor. I thought about it, but I couldn’t come up with a clear answer.

“Do not doubt. It’s just a pure favor for you who exceeded our expectations. We like outstanding people.”

“And then you’re trying to destroy the dimension altogether?”

“Because they aren’t that great.”

Albitz said calmly.

“They didn’t deserve it, you deserve it. If you want to refuse, you can. But once you become the warden of purgatory, no one can guarantee you when you will be able to leave purgatory, except for the brief vacation you have specified.”

Prisoners in Purgatory don’t come around that often.

“What are you going to do? Oh, did you say you are a suspicious person? I swear by God that I will never do you any harm.”

“···great. If you send me, I will go.”

I didn’t have any options anyway. Kim Woo-jin nodded.

“Good idea.”

“If you want to run away, you can run away. You will pay the full price for that.”

“Fuck you.”

At Varian’s comment, Kim Woo-jin raised his middle finger. The expressions of the gods went to the brink of having a seizure, but the anger of the gods was reduced by the notice of the gods.

“Bern.”

“Yes, my lord.”

At Varian’s call, the blue-haired man took a step forward.

“You guide Kim Woo-jin. Follow it for a month and move it to the desired dimension.”

“Yes?”

“Do I have to say it twice to understand?”

“···no.”

“Didn’t I become a god thanks to you? Could it be because I became a god and couldn’t do one thing properly?”

“I will keep this in mind. Follow me.”

Bern took Kim Woo-jin with the executioners and disappeared.

“The meeting ends here. Let everyone go.”

“Yes.”

Only three main gods remained in Daejeon. A moment of silence, it was Varian who spoke first.

“Now you all know. Kim Woo-jin is a waste to use once and throw away. He is a god and is stretching, but he is better than those who are far from lacking.”

“I agree. I never thought you would stimulate my sense of self-love with a mere human subject.”

“I admit it. To be honest, I thought you were crazy, Varian. Let’s go in the direction of saving the traitor who killed two gods as much as possible.”

However, after seeing Kim Woo-jin in person, I realized why Varian talked like that.

It was a waste. Kim Woo-jin’s potential, talent, and ability were at a level that should never be left untouched.

“I agree with your opinion that we should make him one of our people. But I doubt he will.”

There are things you can feel just by looking at them.

The way you speak, your actions, and your eyes. The eyes are the windows to the mind. A person’s emotions are embedded in their eyes.

“They couldn’t wait to tear us to pieces right away.”

“Yes, he is very cheeky.”

Regardless of whether it was possible or not, even after going through the ordeal, my heart was not broken. But will he come over even if he appeases?

“I know what you are concerned about. But you don’t have to be a member of the family to be able to pamper them.”

“Are you talking about a contract?”

“yes. Purgatory needed someone to manage it anyway. For the gods, purgatory was nothing more than an exile, and dissatisfaction was piling up. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could keep Kim Woo-jin as the director of Purgatory for the rest of his life?”

“exactly.”

The gods are accustomed to enjoyment, but not to duty. The place of director of purgatory was held by the gods in rotation, but it was a place no one wanted to go to.

If he could keep Kim Woo-jin there forever, it wasn’t bad at all.

“You just have to break the contract appropriately whenever necessary. It is stated that if prisoners escape, the number of prisoners to be released doubles.”

Then, in the end, Kim Woo-jin will have no choice but to surrender before the vaccine.

“The one who endured for 20 years?”

“It is only 20 years. It may be a long time for humans, but 20 years is a fleeting moment for us.”

Even if you hold the position of director of purgatory not for 20 years, but for 200 or 2000 years, will you be able to maintain your original mind?

“I don’t think so.”

Your mind will be weathered and worn out and you won’t even know why you’re stuck here. And in the end, I’ll pull the only rope.

“exactly. If I was that kind of person, I could wait not 2,000 years, but 2 million years. I can’t just pass the word manager. If you become a member of my household, I will educate you properly.”

Kalkar revealed his intent to kill.

“Albitz, what about you?”

“…not a bad way. Even if Kim Woo-jin holds out for a long time, we have nothing to lose. A very appropriate punishment for someone who dared to call God a manager.”

Whether he resisted to the end or not, the prison called time will surely make him regret the sins he committed.

Thus, the treatment of Kim Woo-jin was decided.

* * *

The dimension of the vaccine war was definitely different.

You can see the universe right away, and you can see a white pillar in the distance. That’s probably the Akashic Records that Albenius was talking about.

Perhaps because it was close to the Akashic Records, the power of the universe overflowed throughout the dimension. The lungs filled up just by breathing in, made Kim Woo-jin feel the urge to stay here.

‘No.’

Maybe this too is a trick before vaccines. He wants Kim Woo-jin to kneel down voluntarily and become a dog.

will never get over

Kim Woo-jin, who shook off his lust, looked at the back of the man walking ahead.

“hey.”

There was no answer.

“Did you say Bern?”

“…it’s a warning. Don’t you dare call God’s name indiscriminately.”

“You want to press it more when it bounces right away like a seizure button.”

Bern stopped.

“Kim Woo-jin.”

“yes.”

“I’m not interested in what you did in the past or what kind of personality you were.”

“You should be paying attention. You said you became a god thanks to me? There’s no way Ju-sin would say bullshit, right?”

Wow, a rough grip grabbed Kim Woo-jin by the collar.

“Shut up. Don’t you dare insult the Lord. If it is not the order of the main god, you will die right here.”

“Can I?”

Kim Woo-jin laughed. Our eyes met. Bern flinched.

“If it was the Baeksinjeon, there would be 100 followers, and of course, if there were no vacancies, there would be no new gods. So, according to Varian’s words, you took the position because I killed God, right?”

“gibberish···!”

“Then fuck you.”

Kim Woo-jin grabbed the back of Vern’s hand. Oddly, the bones and muscles were twisted. Bern let out a groan.

“Bern!”

“Stay still. If you move a little more, this bastard’s neck will break.”

The executioners drew their weapons, but were unable to move hastily at the sharp warning.

“Thank you, it’s not enough to bow and serve a full course, but why are you barking like a frightened dog? Can’t you understand the situation?”

Kim Woo-jin loosened his hands. Vern unknowingly slumped and sat down.

Kim Woojin straightened out his crumpled clothes and smiled brightly.

“And we can’t both kill each other anyway because of the contract.”

therefore.

“Let’s go on a quiet trip. Are you my guide now? You son of a gunny? Oh, this is a mistake.”

Kim Woo-jin whistled and went ahead.

“Are you all right?”

“Get your hands off me.”

“Yes, yes…!”

Suddenly, Bern’s eyes were fixed on Kim Woo-jin’s back and did not fall off. For a while.
