Players Who Returned 10,000 Years Later
Chapter 23: Followers of the Devil (Part 2)



— What..what-what... — Dok Hyun can hardly speak clearly.


In the hands of the one who should have been the victim, the same Hell Fire lit up.


No, it's not the same.


It just looked like its fire but it was actually something else, something stronger.


"He cannot be defeated." Dok Hyun's eyes widened.


It was impossible to break through Kang Yu's armor as well.


Dok Hyun's belief that he could defeat Kang Yu evaporated at the speed of light.


He turned pale and trembled even harder.


There was an unseen alarm in his eyes.


'What should I do…?' The impossibility of winning is already an indisputable fact.


Kang Yu did not even need to move a step to fight — Hell Flame would do everything for him.


Sweat was running down Dok Hyun's forehead. Now that he didn't know what to do, he fought internally against himself.


Kang Yu watched the guild founder tremble with interest.


'What will he do?' It was clear from his performance that he had already guessed that he could not win, so his next action would be the key.


The curiosity did not last long.


After pondering for a moment, Dok Hyun suddenly fell to his knees and stretched his hands to the ground.


— Great!!!


— А?


— We wait for the Great to come down from heaven to us!


Dok Hyun looked crazy, uttering such a sentence aloud. Kang Yu grinned subconsciously.


— Hah.


— You are our Lord, Messiah, and God! By leading this world, you can become despotic to us!


Doc Hyun continued his speech with Kang Yu's smile.


'The guy.' He was obviously trying to lie.


Kang Yu looked at Dok Hyun with a silly expression on his face, who clearly understood the hopelessness of the situation and adapted to it.


Kang Yu, of course, expected some action from him, but not this.


— Oh, great Andras! I've known it was you since I saw you!


'Is that what I should be doing?'


— You can not imagine how long we wait for you!


"You don't."


— I can feel my heart ready to explode with joy!


"Enough empty stuff."


Kang Yu was stunned by Dok Hyun's good acting skills.


- What are you doing?! Prostrate quickly to the Great! This man is able to give us eternal life!


— What... Ah, yes.


- Quickly! — Dok Hyun shouted at the guild members who did not understand anything.


They started kneeling, looking at each other in confusion.


Kang Yu grinned at the sight of Andras's followers bowing before him.


'Unusual people.' It is very difficult to throw away your pride and kneel like this in front of strangers.


Kang Yu could almost respect Dok Hyun for this idea.


'That's not so bad.' Kang Yu smiled slightly at him.


He does not hate the pathetic.


Instead, he would hate them if they did not bow to him in a clearly defeated situation.


That's why Kang Yu likes them — they are ready to forget their pride and bow their heads to survive.


'You can't lose this chance.' Kang Yu felt interested and stepped forward.


ha ha ha! You finally recognized me! I'm Andras! Ruler of all demons and Ruler of Hell Fire, — Kang Yu said loudly, surrounded by Magi.


Half of his words were lies.


He did not have enough Magi to become the Ruler of all demons, like himself.


And no, Kang Yu was definitely not Andras.


The only truth in what was said was that he controlled the Hell Fire.


— Oh, Ruler of all demons! The Fire Lord of Hell! Hurray for Andras!


But Dok Hyun, who did not know the truth, lowered his head to the floor with praise.


He uttered all these expressions so excitedly that a fool would think Kang Yu was someone who was highly respected.


"Of course not." It was just a cold calculation from Dok Hyun, who understood that he could not win this fight.


Kang Yu smiled and sat unkemptly on the altar.


"But it doesn't really matter." The most important thing was Dok Hyun's submission. And the fact that Kang Yu had things he wanted to learn from her.


— Let everyone go. I have something to discuss with you.


- Understood!


He called out to the followers who stumbled to the ground and pointed at them.


They lifted their injured comrades off the ground and went outside.


Left alone with Dok Hyun, Kang Yu said in a calm voice:


— Well, I have some questions.


— Enough with chat. You know very well I'm not Andras.


With his lips tightly clenched, Dok Hyun glanced at Kang Yu coldly.


- So, who are you?


— I'm the one who asked the question.


Dok Hyun bit his lip.


— First, the ritual. How come? How do you know that making a split can be done with the help of Maryok, which is extracted from which stone?


The most important thing right now is to figure out how it creates division.


It would be strange if creating a rift was his special ability.


Dok Hyun looked around and replied in a soft voice:


— I learned to do this by getting a mission.


- A mission?


- Yes I do.


— What kind of mission?


— I once met a demon disguised as a young man. He promised to give me immortality if I accepted the teachings and followed the Devil Teacher.


— And you accept his offer? — Kang Yu looks at Dok Hyun in confusion.


What kind of madman would accept such a crazy offer?


— Dia... she is very strong.


— She's strong?


- That's right. In a moment, he took over our entire guild. And. he said follow him or die. I followed him desperately!


- Where is he now?


— Me.. I don't know. I haven't seen him since that day.


you've never seen it?


- Yes that's right.


— And no contact?


— No. Sometimes he just sends orders by mail.


- Hm.


— You are quite active in following his teachings.


- Ah! That's…


Dok Hyun shivered and looked away.


Kang Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at Dok Hyun up close.


'It is possible that at some point he began to like her and decided to continue his ritual.' He might be forced to do so at first, but then, feeling the sweet power, anyone could succumb to temptation.


'Who is the Demon Teacher?'


The name of the founder of this pseudo-religion sounds very silly, but he has enormous power.


Usually at first, those who learn to make gaps do not have strong strength.


Kang Yu turned to Dok Hyun.


— Where are the letters with that order?


- Here they are.


- Are they…? Just one?


— Yes, I think so.


Dok Hyun, while continuing to act like a victim, looked sad.


- Hm. Alright, let's see. —Kang Yu's eyes narrowed as he cupped his chin while thinking hard. — You're the only one who got a mission from the so-called Demon Master? —


— Me.. I don't know. I have never met anyone else, — Dok Hyun said in a quivering voice and nodded.


Kang Yu looked at him and clicked his tongue.


"He can't be the only one." Kang Yu did not know who the Demon Master was or whether Dok Hyun knew about his plan.


But he knew for sure that if he trusted Dok Hyun's words alone, he couldn't make plans, because he wasn't stupid and not weak.


At the same time, he looked neither talented nor talented.


He was not a person strong enough to create his own rift.


"There must be someone else."


A mysterious demon with people who adore him.


Kang Yu thought somewhere, there must be a follower like Dok Hyun who secretly performs the ritual.


While hesitating, Kang Yu flicked his tongue.


— So, what is the only command this teacher gave you? To receive Magi through rituals and become stronger?


- No…


- Then what?


— Turn as many Players as possible into demons in human form. He said that this way he could turn Earth into hell…


Kang Yu was not happy with what he heard.


'To turn Players into demons through Magi.'


It was unclear what the Demon Master was waiting for or where. And the intention of making the Player a demon is still a mystery.


But one thing is certain.


'That bastard '.' Kang Yu's face turned sour. '...will it create Hell on Earth?'


It was not something that could be done with a single wish.
