Chapter 290

Reincarnator – Chapter 290 : Transcendence (1)

“Hmm . . . What could possible be there?”

Astania looked at the screen her clansman was broadcasting with curiosity .

A strange spaceship .

And the lands beyond the sky high mountain range .

Anybody would be curious about it .

‘Is there really information regarding the 6th patch?’

That’s something she would need to prepare for .

As a person who was in charge of a huge clan .

Kiiiing .

Astania leaned back as she watched the screen on the spaceship through the broadcast .

It seemed like it would take a bit before this screen actually turned on .

At that moment a flower came into the corner of her vision .

The bouquet that Tiamet had given her before .

‘Where the hell did this man go anyway?’

Astania touched the necklace on her neck as she mumbled .

This was also something that Tiamet had given her while congratulating her for her rise to the lord of this territory .

A gem which symbolized the ownership of this special district .

‘ . . . I don’t know why he’s so nice to me . Is my beauty so incredible that it even impacts NPCs?’

A smirk had started to appear as she thought up to this point but she quickly resumed her original expression .

Tiamet’s actions weren’t sincere enough for her to think this way .

With an NPC with immeasurable strength, he could’ve easily forced his way in but instead he just roamed around her and took care of her discreetly .

‘How petty… Just charge at me like a man or something . ’

This was an another world .

There were cases of people dating NPCs as well .

No, it was quite common actually .

Since the players, who were confident in their looks, approached the NPCs for their power or wealth .

And her clansmen were always joking with her as well .

That she should just lure him in and catch him .

Though it was still a joke in the end, there was a bit of desire for this to actually happen deep inside the clansmen’s minds .

Since the Kalikul clan wouldn’t just remain as one of the 15 Great Clans once their relationship with Tiamet improved .

There would only be a single clan to rule over all other remaining clans .

That was how powerful Tiamet was .

Even if he just shifted around a bit to let off his excess emotions, the entire world of Exodus would flip upside down .

If Tiamet wanted to give Astania the capital then that would happen, along with the taxes that the Empire collected .

A tremendous strength .

And Astania had actually dreamed about this alluring future as well .

Though she stopped rather quickly .

‘That eye is the problem…’

Astania smacked her lips .

Eyes .

The eyes of Tiamet that stared at her .

Those eyes were always so sad and filled with immeasurable sorrow .

And because of this, using him to gain more power and wealth didn’t feel quite right to her .

Astania smiled as she touched the necklace on her neck .

‘I should treat him better once he comes back . We should eat or something . The new restaurant that opened in the front looks good . ’

At that moment .

The entire Kalikul clan started roaring at the broadcast .

And the moment Astania heard this, she resumed her cold expression and regained her posture .

Whatever was there was really important .

“This bastard…”

He was purposely letting out the steam after riling them all up .

And as Astania smirked at the clansman who was pretending to be a reporter at a scene .

‘What the…’

Astania focused her eyes she brought the screen closer to her face .

Whoooosh .

Shwooosh .

The countless clansmen who were on the broadcast started to disappear into golden light while only leaving behind echos of screams .

“ . . . What? Why are they logging out?”

Astania was confused as she stared at the broadcast .

Since these guys, who had no reason to log out, were disappearing into golden light .

She assumed poison but it didn’t seem like it .

And the players who were watching the broadcast of the screen on the spaceship heard the clansmen broadcasting this backing up in shock .

The players then all looked at the scene on the screen .

A giant tower that reached above the clouds .

And the vast city that spread out beneath it .

The moment they saw this .

Whooooosh .

Even the broadcasting player disappeared into golden light .

But Astania now knew why this was happening .

The moment she saw the tower .

All of her lost memories were coming back .

Memories of the long forgotten past .

She remembered when she had run to the city during the apocalypse .

She remembered when she had been oppressed by the 1st grade citizens in the city .

She remembered when she had risen up against the 1st grade citizens .

And…

‘Tiamet . You dumbass . ’

Astania smiled as she remembered all this .

She realized why Tiamet had taken care of her so much .

And why he had always been around her .

‘ . . . I guess we won’t be able to eat together . ’

Whooooosh .

Astania’s body started to disappear .

For the price of breaking the law of this world .

A body which was supposed to be trapped inside the Obelisk but had instead been allowed to live in this world .

A body made by someone else would disappear once it breaks their rules .

And soon .

Clank .

Astania disappeared into golden light as only a single necklace remained beneath where Astania originally stood .

………………………………………………

“ . . . Ah . ”

Kiiiiing .

Tiamet was at a loss as he looked between the spaceship that had started to fly up in the distance and the light disappearing from the ring on this finger .

‘How . . . How could this happen at the last moment . ’

The light had gone off on the ring on his finger .

The light of the ring that was connected to Astania’s necklace .

The light on this ring would only go off when the necklace had lost its owner .

And the royal necklace wouldn’t lose its owner even if one logged out .

Which could only mean one thing .

That the necklace had completely lost its owner .

Which meant . . .

“Haha . . . Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha!”

Tiamet started to laugh like a maniac .

The laughter which had both rage and hysteria mixed together spread out all around him and Hansoo .

‘For what… For what have I survived up until now?’

The moment he knew Astania died .

Something that had supported him for the past thousand years had fallen .

And at that moment he knew .

That he had cherished this woman more than he had thought he did .

“ . . . ”

Tiamet gazed at Hansoo expressionlessly .

“There was a lot more I wanted to talk with you about but… It doesn’t matter anymore . ”

A cold smile appeared on his face .

And the moment Hansoo saw this .

‘Danger . ’

Hansoo instinctively crushed his heart .

It was the expression of a man who had thrown away everything, someone who had nothing to lose anymore .

Kwaduk .

Splurt .

Blood exploded out from Tiamet’s mouth but the cold smile remained .

He was a supernatural being even out of the supernatural beings on this world .

He wouldn’t die immediately even if his heart was crushed .

Even if his brain was smashed his body would still move according to his final will .

It would only be for a moment but it was more than enough .

Enough to erase everything .

“This damned world… I’m going to return it all . ”

‘Since it was a world created from the contract… It’ll be okay for me to just return it all to how it was before . ’

Then .

Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

The tremendous amount of condensed energy next to Tiamet’s heart started to pulsate as it quickly enlarged .

The energy which he had compressed with the Rangkom’s stake and the White Dragon Arena for a thousand years .

This energy, which could easily flip the world upside down, started to burn up with a blinding light .

“Hahahaha! How useless!”

As Hansoo heard Tiamet’s crazed laugther he quickly took Rangkom’s stake from his hands .

It was too late to prevent the explosion .

But he had to lessen the damage as much as he could .

Hansoo breathed in and out and then stabbed the stake towards the condensed energy next to where Tiamet’s heart had been .

!!!!!!!!!

The enormous amount of energy started to get suppressed by the stake as they created an intense amount of sparks .

And cracks had appeared on the sphere of energy and energy started to leak out .

This energy followed the stake up into the sky .

Like a bolt of lightning being attracted by a lightning rod .

Kwadddduk!

Hansoo quickly forced the stake to be pointed towards the sky .

Rummmblee!

And the energy that had started to explode out from the sphere started to follow the stake into the sky .

The snowstorm got dispersed from the energy storm of the sphere and even the clouds above them started to swirl into a storm .

Cough .

Tiamet, who still had a bit of strength left to talk, laughed in a weak manner as he looked at the stake that had embedded him onto the ground .

“Haha…”

If it was something that could be suppressed so easily like this then he would’ve never said it could flip the world upside down .

Though most of it flew into the sky .

The remaining energy was more than enough for what he wanted to do .

Boooom!

Hansoo stomped onto the ground as he quickly rushed towards the inner parts of the Obelisk .

It was not time for him to bicker .

‘I can only live if I reduce the damage as much as I can…’

The energy he was feeling from inside Tiamet was no small matter .

Hansoo, who had entered through the broken wall from before, quickly rushed in and started to drop as deep as much as he could as he broke apart the floors .

Towards the deepest parts of this tower .

Boom! Boom!

Tiamet laughed at a loss as he heard the sounds of Hansoo breaking through the floors .

‘Will you… Be able to succeed? In crossing that huge barrier?’

As Tiamet’s eyes slowly closed .

BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!

An immeasurable amount of energy exploded out from TIamet’s body and started to sweep through everything around him .

……………………………………

Rumble

“What? What the hell?”

“What happened?’

Mudusella and the adventurers who were with the Ains were at a loss as they stared at the huge pillar of light that had appeared far behind the mountain range .

A deafening sound which rang throughout the world, the earthquake that made the world tremble and blinding light that shook the entire world .

If there wasn’t this sky-high mountain range defending them, that huge energy storm would’ve swept through them as well .

As people stared at the tower of light .

Mudusella saw something else .

The scene of the future she had seen through the Mudusella System in the past .

Though her view was blocked by the mountain range, she could clearly see it .

The scene of the city in the distance .

‘The thousand year old guardian tree . . . Shall fall . ’

She saw the scene of the huge tower falling from the energy storm .

Mudusella asked the adventurers at this moment .

“You . You all received our blessings right?”

“ . . . Yeah . Why do you ask?”

Mudusella smiled coldly .

“ . . . Winter is coming . ”

Then .

Boooooom!

The tremendous snowstorm that the Obelisk had been suppressing this entire time started to sweep through the world .
