Players Who Returned 10,000 Years Later

Chapters 2. The Nine Thousand Circles of Hell. Return to Earth (Part 2)

Be prepared!

— Your Majesty.. — Pallock, capturing the fortitude of God, humbly bowing his head.

'That's Your Majesty's choice.' He had sworn allegiance and could do nothing but follow the King's wishes.

— Palock, do I have to do it again?

— Sorry... — Pallock nodded politely and went to the servants to collect the necessary items.

The weapons of the Seven Great Demons they fought were the ones to be prepared.

It is said that the power contained in the weapon is so large that it can form gaps in space and time.

Recently, by consuming the last Strongest One, Kang Yu had received the last weapon. And now, everything lay before him, ready for use.

— Preparation is done.

- Great. – Kang Yu stands from the throne and walks slowly towards the seven trophies, each decorated with various shapes and colors.

There were seven of them, and they consisted of the strength of the entire Nine Thousand Circles of Hell. The weapons complement each other perfectly in both strength and appearance.

If the King put all the energy he absorbed into this weapon, he would really be able to open a time portal.

— Ha... — Kang Yu quietly took a deep breath.

He had waited so long for this moment, the chance to finally return to Earth, that he seemed to have lost his mind.

'Finally.'

He could finally go home.

An incredible amount of energy from Kang Yu's body started flowing into his weapon. The Devourer power that had been developing for tens, hundreds, thousands of years.

It was no exaggeration to say that even the Nine Thousand Circle itself had been absorbed by the King. His power is huge.

Man Ma Jung's.

(PP: In short, The Power of Lord Pandemonium)

This was the word used to describe the part inside Kang Yu that contained great power.

And now, the flow of Man Ma Jung perfectly completes the weapons of the Seven Great Demons.

In an instant, there was a crack in the sky, and a black passageway appeared before his eyes.

'I can finally go back to Earth.' The remains of his clear memories on Earth appeared in his mind at that very instant.

Even after ten thousand years, he had not forgotten his hometown.

In that place, neither family nor women were waiting for him.

Nonetheless…

'Even if my city is small, it's better than being here, in a place without food or entertainment.'

He was willing to do anything to get out of this place full of bloodshed and murder.

'So, it's important to set the right time.' Kang Yu did not want to move now. After all, the face of the Earth could have changed enormously in ten thousand years. So much so that his beloved kimchi jjigae might as well cease to exist. Earth without kimchi jjigae is unimaginable. Just thinking about it caused my feathers to stand all over his body.

Kang Yu decided to travel back in time before he first went to Hell.

— Well, I'll go now.

— King…

Palock lowered his head desperately, because he knew God's will was firm.

From Lilith's 18 eyes, tears resembling chicken manure flowed out. He began to speak:

— Are you really going to leave me?

— Don't cry. Looks terrible.

So terrible, maybe one day, the picture of his crying will appear in a horror film.

He seems to have misunderstood God's words, because his tentacles trembled a little, and he cried:

- Oh! Oh, good words! It seems that my heart is torn to shreds by your love.

And when he finished speaking, one of the tentacles closest to his heart broke, and pus started to come out of it.

"Oh my God."

— Oh, my king! Oh darling!

"Don't come near me."

— Lilith also wants to go with the King!

"God."

Seeing Lilith approaching while spitting out pus, Kang Yu rushed to the open portal without the slightest hesitation.

—Kang Yu! Whatever happens, Lilith will follow you!

His screams gradually faded away as his consciousness was enveloped by an unusual feeling.

— May our paths never intersect! – She shows Lilith her middle finger.

No, not just for her, but for all the suffering she's endured over the past ten thousand years.

'It's not easy, ' Kang Yu thought as he tried to control time travel.

'Time' controls life, so it's hard to manipulate.

Kang Yu arranged the time as close as possible before he first went to Hell. Error 10—20 year no problem.

After all, he was born an orphan, so he had nothing to change in the past and had no hope for a better future. The only thing that mattered was to return to the Earth that he remembered.

With the setting of the time now set, an unknown force began to pull him deep into the dark tunnel.

Unable to resist, he calmly closed his eyes and relied on the force dragging him.

[Irror accessing the nucleus.

Security system activated. ]

[Error. Faults. ]

[Your strength is too great. ]

[All power is focused on maintaining the kernel. The system is now in reboot mode. ]

[Error. Faults. ]

[Your strength is too great. There is no way to fix this defect. ]

[It is impossible to repair the defect. The sealing has now begun. ]

[Your strength is too great. There is no way to fix this defect. ]

[It is impossible to repair the defect. The sealing has now begun. ]

'What's that sound?' he wonders. A completely unnatural voice sounded from all over the place.

However, he was unable to ponder further about it.

— Ah... — His consciousness, like everything else around him, became blurred.

* * *

His body was in so much pain that he could barely move his fingers.

Kang Yu groaned in pain as he gathered his strength and opened his eyes.

- Where am I? — The first thing he saw was a dense forest.

Sunlight pierced through the lush foliage of the trees, tickling the young man's cheeks.

— Phuh — Kang Yu takes a deep breath and forces himself to wake up.

A sharp pain spread throughout his body and spread to his head.

'OK, first I have to do my own diagnosis.' He had to make sure that nothing irreparable happened to his body.

[Status information download.].

'What?' As soon as he thought of checking his physical condition, a blue panel appeared before his eyes.

His eyes widened in astonishment, a small frown appeared on his forehead, after which he turned his attention to the 'status window.'

[Status Window]

The player's name: Oh Kang Yu

Level: 1 [Stage 1 – Resurrection]

Level 1 Feature: Wearer Power (Rating: ???)

Special skills are currently sealed.

Skills: None

Power: 8

Vitality: 9

Physical abilities: 7

Maryok: 0 (Which man uses)

Magi: 12

Intellect: 8

Wisdom: 7

'What the fuck?' His condition board looked exactly like when he first arrived in hell.

Kang Yu's face was distorted in confusion – he didn't understand why his status was like that.

'Are you saying that the power of all those monsters, which I ate, is sealed?'

'The Power of a Devourer.'

The unique power that made him survive in Hell, the power with which he could become the strongest Master.

And now he is told that Man Ma Jung, his Strength, and all of his abilities are sealed? He was panicked, horrified that the power he had accumulated over ten thousand years was no longer within his control.

— Uh. – Kang Yu takes a deep breath and tries to calm down.

Panic and rejection of reality will only make the situation worse. He understands that very well.

"Concentration," he murmured to himself, "First, you need to know about your condition."

Kang Yu tried to summon Man Ma Jung, the power he had accumulated over tens, hundreds, thousands of years, from devouring demons.

"I can't feel it." Or rather, thanks to his skillful concentration, he could sense Man Ma Jung, but was so weak that the young man considered him insignificant.

Now he could compare the power of that power not with infinity, but with dust.

'If it is like this, it will be very difficult to use any ability.' Kang Yu was obviously upset by this realization.

Among demons, he was considered the most powerful, thanks to the Devourer's strength.

Thanks to that, he could devour those who also possessed special powers. There are 666 'special' demons that he eats. Among them were the Seven Great Demons, after consuming them, he learned how to use their Strength.

Each Power is unique, but to use it you must have a certain amount of energy.

The energy he currently possessed was not enough to use Strength.

'In the current situation, it would be difficult to use Blade as well.' The power previously possessed by the demon Shabnak was called 'Sword Power.' It was an ability that summoned a sword from the body.

'That's not enough.' With enough energy, the Blade could be used skillfully, but at this moment, it was almost impossible.

Kang Yu focused on his left hand and summoned Sword Force.

And after a while, a sharp black blade was pulled out from the back of his hand.

The young man felt the energy from his body flow into the sword.

— It will be difficult to get used to this. — His previous strength is near infinite, providing endless possibilities, now like a puddle on the bottom of a drying ocean.

The realization of this fact is very sad.

But the Status Window reflects its reality ... For whatever reason his powers were sealed remained a mystery, but it was clear that his Man Ma Jung was close to zero. What injustice.

He recalled the moment the Status Window suddenly appeared with the details of its characteristics.

'Did I enter the game?' Kang Yu suddenly wondered if he had already returned to Earth.

“Kik, kik!”

An ominous droughts of metal reached his ears, and he turned to the place where the voice came from.

"Heh-heh-heh."

He immediately realized the source of the voice and tensed up.

They were short, their height reaching only the chest of the young man, with their skin and sharp teeth light green. They looked exactly like the filthy creatures from the First Thousand Hell Circle.

As far as Kang Yu knew, there had never been such a creature on Earth.

— Is this not... Earth? – He muttered in a tone full of despair.

Kang Yu could not even laugh at the fact that after ten thousand years of preparation, he was still unable to return to Earth.

“Kia-aah!”

A large crowd of ugly-looking monsters, screaming in joy, threw themselves at him.
