Chapter 197. The Hero Gets Stronger in Despair (2) – PLAYER WHO RETURNED 10,000 YEARS LATER

Chapter 197. The Hero Gets Stronger in Despair (2)

“What to do?”

Kang Woo, who was watching Si Hoon’s training from the next room, easily sat down on a chair.

Three months.

Almost a hundred days have passed.

“It’s not that much.”

Not a little, of course, but more could have been. Take Lucifer, for example – during this time, his fight with the Hellish teachers did not make much progress. They continued to fight, but there was no advantage to either side.

“And yet…”

Kang Woo was sure that for Si Hoon these hundred days dragged on like an eternity. The guy continued to watch Si Hoon. He, with tears in his eyes, tried his best to raise and hold the sword in his hands. It looked pretty sad.

“He never felt so powerless.”

Since Si Hoon became a Player, this is the first time he has looked so pathetic. Before that he, being a real genius, developed incomparably quickly.

Heavenly gift.

Kang Woo did not understand this very well, but according to Chun Mu Jin, Si Hoon is a talent that, without exaggeration, can be called a gift from heaven.

In fact, Si Hoon was so strong that it is difficult to call him an ordinary person. He didn’t even have a level cap – a problem that every player faces. From the outside it might seem that this is a trifle, but not for him, because he had never stopped in development before. And now he was at the very bottom.

“The swordsman who could not take a sword in his hands.”

Now he felt like a trash.

– Bl * be! He swore sharply.

Kang Woo frowned. This was expected, but watching Si Hoon’s fall proved to be more difficult than anticipated. The guy got up and turned around.

– We need to get ready.

He can’t do it alone. No, more precisely, there was no place for him in this regard. Kang Woo headed for the exit. The first thing he needs to do is find Pallock. Lilith and Baal Hazak, who was doing the laundry, were also there.

– Ho-ho-ho. And why did you come to me, the lord of death?

– I asked you to get rid of this apron… – Kang Woo sighed heavily looking at a pink apron peeking out from under a black robe. – I called you so that…

Kang Woo addressed all three at once. The more he spoke, the more the eyes of Baal Hazak lit up with yellow light, and Lilith chuckled, clearly in anticipation. Pallock grimaced in displeasure.

– Is this person so valuable that we have to go for this? He asked in confusion.

Kang Woo nodded.

– Yes. Definitely.

Si Hoon’s development potential was much higher than Pallock had anticipated. And this was not just a guess. This becomes clear as soon as you look at his status window.

“Special ability of the SSS rank.”

And that was his first special ability. But Kang Woo already had 8th rank, but he never received a special ability of this class.

“Even„ Brutal Great Assassin of the “SS rank.”

This ability was so powerful only of rank SS. Therefore, there is a high probability that when Si Hoon is able to fully use his special ability, he will be able to surpass even Pallock.

“And more.”

This was a man who seemed to have received the blessings of the entire world. Therefore, Kang Woo was counting on him.

– If the master wants it, then I will follow his will, – said Pallock confidently and bowed.

Kang Woo laughed and patted him on the shoulder.

– After working with Si Hoon, you will understand this yourself.

– And yet I don’t like doing something that is not for your benefit, but for the sake of another person.

“This is for me,” Kang Woo said confidently.

Not out of sympathy for the guy. Not because of the feelings that have appeared for him.

“We need him. All of us.”

Kang Woo couldn’t do everything alone.

He is not God, he is not omnipotent. This he understood thanks to Gaia. If not for Pallok, Lilith and Echidna, then he would not have been able to safely end the last battle. If the volcano really exploded, then it would not be difficult to predict the consequences. The Guardians would disappear, and the hard-knit world would be torn apart again.

– And it’s not even because he’s my brother.

Kang Woo needs allies, and Si Hoon is the best option.

– Can you handle it? He asked.

Pallok, Lilith and Baal Hazak stood on one knee in front of him.

– We will do whatever the master wants.

Kang Woo nodded and turned around.

These three would have no problem agreeing. Lilith will help him prepare the plan, so there was no need to worry.

“The only problem is…” He narrowed his eyes.

Three of them are not enough.

There is a main character, the main villain, but the main character was missing.

Someone with a burning soul was needed, who can fall into the abyss of despair. He himself, of course, could not do this, he was too strong for this. It won’t be the kick that Si Hoon wants.

“In that case…”

There is only one person suitable for this role. The guy took out a transparent ball and opened the Gate leading to the sanctuary of the Guardians.

***

– What?

Sparse brown hair.

Painfully white skin.

Body so fragile that it might seem like any touch will kill her. Goose bumps ran through the woman’s skin.

– What does this mean?

– This is for Si Hoon.

– But… but still!

She leaned on a wheelchair and stood up, but immediately lost her balance and began fall. Kang Woo carefully caught her and sat her back down.

– How can I do this to Protector Si Hoon… – Gaia tilted her head.

Kang Woo continued quietly:

– Don’t you know what position he is in now?

She was silent.

– Are you going to continue just watching how it goes to the bottom?

– N-n-no! Of course not! – she immediately cried out, and then continued in confusion: – But still this way…

– The problem now is not in the body of Si Hoon. In fact, his hands recovered long ago.

Gaia was silent.

– Don’t you know that? Si Hoon’s problem is in his mind.

Gaia nodded with difficulty.

In fact, she knew it very well.

Kang Woo had the Power capable of healing people, and it was a real miracle. Yet Si Hoon could not hold the sword.

– He has to deal with this himself. We just need to create a suitable situation for this.

– But what if it breaks him even more?.

– It won’t happen, – he said confidently.

He’s the main character after all. Si Hoon will never yield or bow down.

After all, he is the one who was not even scared in the face of death.

– It cannot be broken.

Gaia fell silent, and then in a trembling voice asked:

– Can I handle it?

– Actually, it will be enough just to scream.

She was not assigned high hopes. Kang Woo only decided to involve her in the plan because Si Hoon fell in love with her at first sight and was always willing to protect her. Therefore, he will not think that she is lying.

– P-got it… – Gaia nodded heavily. “I’ll do my best.

Kang Woo smiled.

“Well…”

Casting is over.

Time to go up the stage.

“It will be interesting.”

He felt like a writer who scripted a movie, which made him feel a little nervous.

“I’ll have to repeat it,” he chuckled and headed for the exit.

***

– What a sudden walk? Did something happen?

Gaia and Si Hoon walked along a quietly murmuring river deep into the forest, while birds sang peacefully around.

– N-no. It’s just that you’ve been looking tired lately…

Si Hoon stopped talking.

He looked down at the hands resting on the handles of the wheelchair. His fingers trembled. He did not hold the handles of the wheelchair, but only put them on top and pushed forward.

In fact, he has more to do and could not. Because of this, his chest filled with intense pain. He answered in a low, choppy voice:

– Everything is… okay.

From his voice, of course, it is immediately clear that everything is not normal at all. Gaia reached out and covered the guy’s palm.

– I too… lost my sight… and stopped walking. I understand you.

Si Hoon was silent.

– I felt that I had become nothing and nothing, I lost my individuality.

– But…

– Therefore, I perfectly understand your feelings. But… – Gaia smiled slightly and stroked the guy’s hand.

– Just don’t hate yourself.

– Gaia…

– Fuh, perhaps for whom some of my words may sound ridiculous… but I hope that you will not torture yourself.

They fell silent.

An unusual atmosphere hangs between Si Hoon and Gaia.

– Gaia…

At the moment when Si Hoon was about to say something…

– Wh-what?!

Distributed strong explosion.

Black Magi appeared from all sides, and terrible monsters appeared from afar.

– He-he-he! Finally found!

A body about five meters in height. A frightening monster with green tentacles. The most powerful Magi, from which it was breathtaking.

– Ha… Ha…

Terrifying corpses shuffled after the monster.

– You… you… – Si Hoon’s voice, looking at the monster, trembled.

Reaching out his tentacles towards the guy, the demon shouted:

– I am Yogg -Saron, Messenger of Satan!

Si Hong got on his feet.

Tentacles covered him from all sides.

– Kneel before the God of Death, human!

***

Wow.

Kang Woo was sitting about a hundred meters away from where Si Hoon and Gaia were. on the tree, and watched the action through the Power of the Observer. He smiled broadly.

“I would have crap already.”

Pallock, who was assisted in creating the image of Lilith, looked more than just creepy, and the dead men summoned by Baal Hazak complemented the picture even more.

“Great, just great!”

Kang Woo, feeling like a director, watched with shining eyes

– Ahhh!

Pallock reached out to Gaia.

“That’s it!”

A fragile main character who fell into the hands of a demon. She seemed to have left the picture.

“It remains to shut her mouth.”

Since she did not play well, everything could have collapsed.

At this moment.

– Si Hoon! Save me! Si Hu-u-un!

“Huh?”

– Let go! Let me go, ugly demon!

“What?”

A cry that penetrates to the depths of the soul. As soon as he heard him, his heart skipped a beat.

“What’s wrong with her?”

– What are you going to do?! Ugly monster!

“What’s going on? Why does she play so well?”

– Ugly creature of darkness! What are you going to do with your tentacles?! Nasty!

“No, wait…”

– Nasty! Ugly!

Don’t repeat it twice.

She covered her face with both hands. Kang Woo was struck to the core.

“Why are you doing this to me?”
