CH 158

Duoksini… (3)

“I know you have no intention of killing Platinum Lord.”

“Why do you think…”…”

“Because you’ve never killed a person.”

Baek Ho-min wondered what kind of joke Moktukgaksi was making.

I can’t believe one of the worst serial killers on the third floor has never killed a person. However, Moktukgaksi were talking seriously.

“It’s not you who’s trying to kill Platinum Lord, but boots.”

Baek Ho-min looked at Hongryeon with surprised eyes.

Earlier, Janghwa said it would cooperate with Platinum Lord to kill Hongryeon. Even considering that Platinum Lord was hypnotized at the time, the words did not feel false.

But Hongryeon, you know you shouldn’t do that. Isn’t that why you’re at odds with the boots?”

Hongryeon didn’t answer. However, as Moktukgaksi said, her divided personality was arguing for opinions in a radical way.

There is a confrontation between boots that cannot tolerate Platinum Lord and Hongryeon, who has to listen to the orders of Moktukgaksi.

It was only then that Baek Ho-min could see why the boots tried to kill Hongryeon.

I’m trying to kill Platinum Lord, but Hongryeon is interrupting.

“I know Hongryeon, you are not guilty. And it’s my fault to raise you without teaching you what sin is.”

The wooden-clad slowly opened his arms and began to approach Hongryeon.

The other paladins were embarrassed by the dangerous behavior and tried to stop her, but the wooden puppet prevented anyone from approaching.

“I taught you wrong. I thought it would be enough if your violence was expressed only when necessary. It was a foolish judgment. I should have taught you power and also guilt.”

Moktukgaksi looked like he was about to cry.

“If you’ve used your power, you have to take full responsibility and consideration for it. The moment you pass the responsibility on someone, you’ll just become a jerk cutting your neck, never a paladin.”

“Ms. Moktukgaksi.”

“Don’t even commit the mistake I made.”

Moktukgaksi was approaching Hongryeon defenselessly.

Hongryeon was not yet lowering the knife, but as the wooden gaksi approached the ground, she was quickly bitten back.

It was true that she had never killed a person. At least Hongryeon’s personality.

As Moktukgaksi approached as if hugging, Hong Ryeon held out her cut wrist as if she couldn’t do that.

“I don’t want to hug the person who just cut my wrist, so don’t come closer.”

“It’s my hand. I can stick it on with a new one.””

“It’s easy to take off your neck, but it’s not easy to stick it on.””

“That’s true.”

The answer was not made by Moktukgaksi. This was what Platinum Lord, who was struggling to raise himself, said.

After dying and coming back to life, she looked exhausted.

“Youngjoo! Are you okay?””

“Thank you. Kang hajin. You’re barely hypnotized.”

Moktukgaksi turned to apologize to Platinum Lord. However, Platinum Lord was staring at Hongryeon, not Moktukgaksi.

At the moment when Hongryeon glanced at Platinum Lord’s eyes, Platinum Lord spoke.

“That’s not the paladin you’re thinking of. Moktukgaksi.”

“What?”

“That’s a five-story head parasite, Dueoksi.”

Moktukgaksi froze on the spot. Hongryeon was also looking at Platinum Lord with an embarrassing look.

Platinum Lord staggered and stood up. Kang hajin rushed to help her.

“The manipulation of fear, Duoksi.””

“It’s my first time hearing that…”…”

“That’s right. Duoksini people always appear in the form of people.””

Mokttukgaksi still looked like she didn’t understand.

It was hard to understand that Platinum Lord knew of a parasitic species she had never heard of, and that Hongryeon was the head of the floor.

“Dueoksini appears by selecting the fear of the strongest person on the spot.”

Platinum Lord spoke calmly. But few people could understand what she said.

Platinum Lord said in a way, “Why don’t you know the obvious?”

“The feeling of fear is personal.”

Spiders are just bugs for some people, but they can also be the worst fear for others.

For some, violence is a fearful act, but for others, it is just a means.

“In other words, the power of fear is relative. If you borrow the fear of the strongest person on the spot, the fear will also have a strong power.”

When abstract and ambiguous fear is used as a host, there are no weaknesses, but it is not strong. However, the more specific and personal fear is used as the host, the stronger the influence can exert on the other person.

And for Moktukgaksi, it was said that Hongryeon was the object of fear.

Moktukgaksi looked back at Hongryeon. Hongryeon was shaking her head with a crying expression.

“I’m sure you know what you’re most afraid of. Moktukgaksi.”

Platinum Lord said quietly. Moktukgaksi was silent and said while looking at Hongryeon.

“You…”

“Moktukgaksi.”

Hongryeon spit out her words as if the smallpox was falling, and at that moment, Moktukgaksi came to her.

No.

Boots appeared.

“Hongryeon”?

The moment Moktukgaksi sang, the boots opened their mouths.

“You are a sinner.”

The boots relentlessly swung a knife at the neck of Moktukgaksi.

Crack.

The moment the boots wielded their knives, blood was scattered.

Baek Ho-min certainly thought that Moktukgaksi’s neck was cut. However, something appeared at the close moment and caught a wooden bard.

It was Haru.

Haru and Moktukgaksi became a lump and rolled on the floor.

“Gasp…”

Moktukgaksi groaned and rolled her body to raise him up. But I touched the air.

There was no right arm.

Blood was flowing down the cut shoulder.

The paladins ran toward Moktukgaksi, screaming.

“Those who are impoverished.”

A voice that froze the place rang out.

I looked at the people there one by one at a time with inorganic eyes like glass eggs.

The boots were picking up Moktukgaksi sword that had been stuck on the floor.

“Those who don’t have faith.”

It was a big knife for Hongryeon’s small body, but she skillfully lifted it as if it were her own from the beginning.

Everyone there felt a chill in the back of their neck as they naturally wielded a large knife.

“Wash the altar with blood from the neck.”

Hongryeon really felt like Moktukgaksi. No, in a sense, it was a real Moktukgaksi.

Feeling that the situation was unusual, the paladins rushed to take the lead surrounding Moktukgaksi. Then, he gave a chin-up to Baek Ho-min.

“We’ll be blocking you, so take Moktukgaksi and avoid your seat.”

“What? Even so…”…”

“That’s different from the hasty personality like before!” It is a personality that Moktukgaksi worked hard to remove other characters. It’s a personality that only acts on behalf of violence without self-determination.”

The paladin re-hitter muttered, grinding his teeth.

“That’s the Moktukgaksi of the Paladin era.” The days when I was a mess of the denomination.”

Hongryeon shook his body back and forth and stumbled forward.

At that moment, Hongryeon’s appearance disappeared.

The self-help monument urgently raised the sword, but it was pushed back with a roar.

The sword was cracking as if it were splitting at a single blow.

“If Moktukgaksi is in front of you, you will run wilder. Hurry up!”

Kang hajin pulled on the hem of Baek Ho-min’s clothes. The haggard Platinum Lord caught my eye.

Baek Ho-min began to get out of his seat with a stiff Moktukgaksi, not to mention a long thought.

“I definitely prepared for it. Why?”

It was not understood that one paladin named Hongryeon was so driven.

Is it because the floor leader, Duoksini, intervened?’

Baek Ho-min called constellations out of frustration.

“constellation님들?”

However, somehow constellations have not been answered since earlier. It was immediately after talking about regression with Platinum Lord.

It was a complicated situation in many ways.

For now, it was not good to fight in a situation where both Platinum Lord and Moktukgaksi were in bad condition.

However, while retreating, Platinum Lord stopped Kang hajin.

Platinum Lord beckoned at Baek Ho-min with an expression that it was difficult to speak.

“It’s not time for you to step down. Baek Ho-min.”

“What?”

“I would’ve said it earlier.” I’ll need the help of constellations.”

Baek Ho-min felt like he was beaten in the back of his head.

It was the story I told you earlier when I almost got hypnotized by Hongryeon.

Baek Ho-min thought Platinum Lord was hypnotized at the time, but now that he hears it, he has no idea.

How far Platinum Lord’s plan and how far it wasn’t.

“I told you how to do it. And you will know what Duoksini is aiming for.”

Platinum Lord said with a long sigh with her forehead on the back of his hand.

“I did my best within the scope I could. Now do what only you can do.”

Baek Ho-min turned around and started running again.

And even before returning to the vacant lot earlier, Baek Ho-min ran into the boots again.

The boots were looking at Baek Ho-min with a bloody knife. What happened to the paladins was unknown.

She threw something at Baek Ho-min without saying a word.

Took.

What came into my arms was the arm of Moktukgaksi that was cut off earlier.

Baek Ho-min did not ask why she brought this. His interest was not in the cut arm.

“I heard that the criteria for choosing criminals are difficult.”

“She was shaken by her beliefs. A fool without faith is nothing but a murderer. Therefore, it is established.”

Baek Ho-min smiled in vain.

‘It’s like a logic machine.’

It was true that Moktukgaksi’s actions were close. She was walking narrowly between the hero and the criminal.

If her beliefs were shaken, that alone would have already made her a criminal.

However, it was none other than Hongryeon who pushed Moktukgaksi like that way.

No, it’s because you’re Duoksini.

Baek Ho-min recalled the appearance of Moktukgaksi, who was active when the expedition first entered the fifth floor.

Something to praise for being heroic.

It was natural that Duecini chose Moktukgaksi as the “strongest person.” And it was natural to choose Hongryeon as the main deficit.

Because it was the past and future of a wooden gakshi, a failed past, and a failed future that could be everything.

Round and round.

The boots turned the sword around. Baek Ho-min seemed to be cut off at any moment.

Baek Ho-min sighed for a long time.

I didn’t know if this was a good thing to do now. However, if Hongryeon is written on the 200th anniversary, the solution to it was certainly here if the 200th anniversary was the way to constantly choose the strongest person’s deficit.

“Okay. I’ll show you that I’m better than Moktukgaksi.”

Baek Ho-min raised a Muksabal and aimed at the boots.

“Bring it on.”

The boots bent their heads at an angle.

She seemed to shake the sword lightly, but immediately bounced toward Baek Ho-min.

Baek Ho-min swung a bowl of ink at the trajectory she rushed in.

Hook, bang.

And the very next moment, Baek Ho-min was hiding his face on the ground.

“LOL!”

Even considering that the recall skill was not used, it was an overwhelming difference.

I wondered if it was possible to exert this power just by changing personality.

But the boots didn’t cut his neck.

Instead, he grabbed his head roughly, turned it around, and made eye contact.

Baek Ho-min laughed at the sight. The boots made a sharp look at Baek Ho-min’s laughter.

“What’s funny?””

“If you were a real Moktukgaksi, my neck would have already been cut off.”

This was like proof that he was Duoksini.

Jang Hwa, no, Duuksini, looked at Baek Ho-min with an expression of what it was about. But soon he opened her mouth as if she was not interested.

Something like dark red blood began to come out of it.

Baek Ho-min felt his consciousness fade in an instant.

But he didn’t erase a pleasant smile.

Stroke.

Duecini slowly began to dominate the world of consciousness of Baek Ho-min.

It was easy to take control of a single person’s consciousness, just as when Hongryeon took control of the consciousness. At first, Moktukgaksi was the purpose, but now Baek Ho-min was enough.

It was thanks to obtaining useful information through Platinum Lord.

According to her calculation, if she succeeded in controlling only one Baek Ho-min, she could cope with any strong player.

Baek Ho-min could be the fear of almost all strong players.

However, Duoksini, who was dominating the world of consciousness, felt something strange.

A huge, uncontrolled space was not allowing any of his invasions.

Duocini set up a sharp sense of touch there and began to approach. Soon, Duoksini appeared in a white space.

At that moment, what Duoksini saw was the appearance of people fighting by grabbing their collar and pulling their hair and drying it.

The moment Duocini stopped because he didn’t understand it, their eyes turned to Duocini.

“What’s that nosebleed guy?”
