Player who Returned 10000 years Later

Chapter 277: My Way (2)"Y-You bastard"Shalgiels eyes were trembling.

He could see from Han Seol-Ahs reaction that she was truly in love with him.

Although he himself had pressured her, she had also been willing to sacrifice herself for the human Oh Kang-Woo.

ButTo think that someone who claimed to be her lover would take her hostage as soon as he showed his true colors.

The bloodlust coming out of Kang-Woo was telling Shalgiel that he was not lying.

He was really trying to kill that woman.

Shalgiel trembled.

How evil!

He clacked his teeth.

Although demons were known to be like that, hed never seen trash like him before.

Not even Demon God Lucifer had ever harmed the woman he loved!

There was no line that the demon Oh Kang-Woo wouldnt cross.

Kang-Woo was crazy and out of his mind.

He was even more of a demon than a demon.

He was a cold person who controlled the world as he pleased.

"Kuh""What?

Do you think Im lying?

" Kang-Woo smiled wickedly.

He yanked Seol-Ah, who was standing in a daze, and embraced her.

"Play along for a bit," he whispered.

"Wh-What are you trying to do to her?!

" Shalgiel quickly shouted.

Kang-Woo licked Seol-Ahs cheek.

"Now that I think about it, annihilation might not be enough.

How about we try something different?

""Wh-What?

""Think about it.

Arent you intrigued?

" He roughly grabbed Seol-Ahs well-endowed chest and smiled as filthily as he could.

"What do you think would happen if Celestial Goddess Seraph conceived a demons child?

""Wh-Wha!

"Shalgiels eyes widened.

Just thinking about it made him want to vomit.

Although she had not awakened yet, Seraphs soul was certainly lying dormant within that womans body.

In other words, if that woman conceived a child"A-Aaaahh.

"Shalgiel was in so much despair that he could not even form words.

Kang-Woo smiled and took a glance at Seol-Ah.

"Ah"Seol-Ahs cheeks reddened, and she shyly shook her head.

"O-Oh, Kang-Woo"Hm?

"Wh-What are you saying in a place like this?

"Uhm, excuse me?

Darling?

She jumped in embarrassment with her hands on her cheeks.

Kang-Woo felt anxious.

What the fuck?

Seol-Ah wasnt helping at all.

Kang-Woo understood how confusing this had to all be for her, but she was not dense enough to not understand what was going on.

But despite that" I-Im fine with it.

"Youre fine with what?

It seemed she wasnt planning on playing along.

He took his hand off her chest and covered her mouth.

Her breaths, which were very heated for some reason, tickled his fingers.

Fuck, I hope he hasnt realized.

He shot Shalgiel an anxious look.

Thankfully, Shalgiel still seemed to be in shock.

Kang-Woo sighed in relief.

"So what will you do?

" Kang-Woo asked subtly.

Shalgiel looked down.

"Promise me," he said reluctantly, "that you will not lay a finger on Lady Seraph.

""Hmm~ Im not sure if I can.

Shes far too beautiful for me not to do anything, you see.

""You bastard!!

""Hahahaha!

Alright.

Dont get so angry.

I promise.

Oh, you might not be able to believe me, but I am a man of my word," he said in a half-laughing tone.

Shalgiel clenched his eyes shut and asked in a trembling voice, "What do you want to ask?

"Great.

A smile appeared on Kang-Woos face.

Shalgiel had declared his loss.

All that Kang-Woo needed now was to collect evidence needed for a twist.

"First, how much does Raphael know about this incident?

"" H-He already knows everything.

He also has a notion of your true identity," Shalgiel answered while averting his gaze.

Kang-Woo smirked.

Shalgiels voice was uneasy, his hands were trembling, and his teeth were clacking.

Come on.

He wouldnt be able to fool anyone like that.

Crack!!

"Aaarrrggghhh!!

"Kang-Woo grabbed one of Shalgiels wings.

He rammed Shalgiels head into the ground with his foot and pulled on the wing, ripping it out with the sound of crushing bone.

White feathers fell like snow.

"Shalgiel.

"Kang-Woo grabbed his silver hair and brought his face closer to Shalgiels.

"I said that I would keep my word, didnt I?

But youre not keeping yours?

Hm?

What should I do with you?

""Kurgh, urgh.

"Shalgiels body trembled, and his lips paled from the pain surging through his body.

He closed his eyes and opened his mouth.

"Lord Raphael is currently recovering from his wounds within the Embrace of Light.

Todays events are purely of my own accord.

""Good, thats better.

That aside, what is the Embrace of Light?

""It is a capsule filled with sacred power.

Anyone who enters will be able to heal their wounds quickly, but""It must be isolated from all contact with the outside world.

"" Correct.

"Shalgiel nodded.

Kang-Woo licked his lips with great interest.

"Then, are you saying that he has been treating his wounds since our meeting?

"" Yes.

""Shalgiel, what did I just say?

""Kuh!

"Shalgiel flinched.

He bit his lip and said, "He has been researching.

""Researching?

""He has been looking through materials on why Rakiel fell, how Demon God Bauli was able to tempt him and how Rakiel managed to make other angels fall, among other things.

""Research, huh?

"Kang-Woos eyes shone.

An outline of a plan was taking form in his head.

"When is Uriel coming to Earth?

""I-I do not know that either.

"Shalgiel shook his head.

He didnt seem to be lying.

Kang-Woo asked him a few more questions about the angels, but not even Raphaels right arm, Shalgiel, knew much about their internal affairs.

"Well, Ive heard more than enough.

"Kang-Woo smiled widely.

He wasnt exactly sure what he needed to do, and he didnt have a fully thought-out plan, but he had grasped on to a sliver of hope.

Considering that hed overturned everything while being prepared to really go to war, it was an incredible achievement.

" And what about your promise?

" Shalgiel looked at Seol-Ah with trembling eyes.

Kang-Woo grabbed his shoulders.

"Dont worry, man.

Well have three kids and live happily ever after.

""Th-That is not what you promised!!

"Shalgiels eyes widened.

He twisted around as if he were having a seizure.

"You bastard!!

How dare you try to defile Lady Seraph with your filthy member?!

""You motherf It isnt dirty.

I clean it every single day, just in case.

" Though nothing has happened yet.

Kang-Woo frowned.

He didnt say that last part.

"Th-Thats right!

Its not dirty!

Ive seen it before!

" Seol-Ah shouted.

"Huh?

"Suddenly, the atmosphere became chilly.

"A-Ah!

U-Uhmm I-Its not what you think.

U-Uhh!

" Seol-Ah quickly began shaking her hand as if shed only just realized what she had just said.

"When did you""I-I misspoke.

Please forget I said anything.

""No, wait""I-Its your fault for falling so deeply asleep, r-right?

You think so too, right, Kang-Woo?

""I dont.

""Th-Things like this are bound to happen if we live together.

Th-thats right.

It was an accident!

An accident!

""Lifting my clothes while I was sleeping was an accident?

""Of c-c-c-c-c-course!

It was beyond my control!

"Seol-Ah furiously nodded.

""There was a heavy silence.

Shalgiel looked at both of them in confusion at what the hell was going on, his mouth agape.

"Uhh Mm.

"Kang-Woo was also troubledhe felt that all his acting had been blown away at once.

I wont ask Seol-Ah to act ever again.

She was like a ticking time bomb.

He missed the Oscar-winning Gaia.

"Sorry, man," he said to Shalgiel apologetically.

"I at least wanted to give you a cool send-off.

"Kang-Woo wanted him to die while saying something cool like "Mark my words, you will receive the judgment of light one day!

" or something along those lines, but things had gone awry.

Kang-Woo patted Shalgiels shoulder as if truly sorry.

"Goodbye, man.

I wont forget you.

""Wait What in the world is"Stab.

He pierced Shalgiels chest with his hand, grabbed his heart, and squeezed it so hard that it exploded.

Kang-Woo took a deep breath and activated his communication crystal orb.

- What can I do for you, Master?

"Vaal Zahak.

Bring over your Undead and collect all the angel corpses here.

"After giving a short command, he cut the communication.

""His eyes met Seol-Ahs.

She looked around and bit her lip.

"Kang-Woo"It was as if she wasnt sure what to do and was surprised that Kang-Woo had acted so differently from the Kang-Woo she knew.

Kang-Woo grabbed her hands and calmly said, "Stay here for now and go back with Vaal Zahak once he arrives, okay?

""Wh-What about you?!

""I have something I have to do first, so Ill be heading off to do that.

""""I know you dont understand what just happened.

Im sure you must be confused out of your mind.

"Shed seen Kang-Woos true face for the first time, so there was no way she wouldnt be surprised.

He said, "You said before that you wanted to know more about me, right?

""Ah, yes!

I-I do.

""Once this is over, Ill tell you.

So for now, stay here and go back with Vaal Zahak.

"""Seol-Ah nodded.

Leaving her behind, Kang-Woo immediately opened a gate leading to the Hall of Protection.

Its a race against time.

He needed to move quicker than anyone else to clean up the mess he had made.

* * *"I guess he really had brought as many forces as he possibly could.

"Kang-Woo laughed in disbelief as he looked over the empty angel fortress.

There were neither gatekeepers guarding the entrance nor any patrol guards within the fortress.

"Tsk.

"He clicked his tongue and used the Authority of Stealth.

He jumped and infiltrated the fortress.

Kang-Woo narrowed his eyes as he looked around and activated the Authority of the Beholder.

I want to find Raphael, whos apparently in the Embrace of Light, butThere was something that he had to find before thathe went to Raphaels study.

There were countless books piled up.

"Are these all related to Rakiel?

"He had expected Raphael to not have been able to research much since not much time had passed, but there were far more materials than he had thought.

He looked at Raphaels notes lying on the table.

The research progress of Rakiels fall was neatly recorded by date.

""He narrowed his eyes.

This isA slow smile crept onto his face, and he felt shivers of excitement.

Just thenWhoom.

The white crystal orb on the table shone.

[Hey!

Raphael!!

Its Uriel.

What the hells taking you so long to answer?

]Kang-Woo heard the clear and sonorous voice of a little boy.

[Hihi, I heard you got floored by Satan, but you actually got hurt for real?

Im curious.

Turn on the feed already!

]""Kang-Woo silently listened to Uriel clamoring all by himself.

[Anyway, things here are pretty much over, so Ill be heading to Earth once the portal to Earth forms in about a week.

Everythings okay over there, right?

]Kang-Woo licked his lips when he heard the cheerful voice.

His eyes shone.

Come to think of it, I guess there was no need to even think about it.

Kekeke.

A vulgar laugh left Kang-Woos mouth.

It wouldve been so simple if Id done this from the start.

Kang-Woo slowly extended his hand.

Just like hed said, there was no need to think or hesitate.

He just had to do things his way.

He would do what he did best and had always done masterfully.

Clack.

[Oh, you finally answered the call.

Hey!

Raphael!!

What have you been doing?!

]Kang-Woo slowly opened his mouth.

"Lord Uriel"[Huh?

Shalgiel?

Why are you picking up instead of Raphael?

]Shalgiels voice was coming out of Kang-Woos mouth.

"My apol It is already too late for Lord Raph"[What?

What do you mean?

]"Rakiel has corrupted Lord RaphKurgh.

" [Hey!

Wh-What?

What are you talking about?!

]"Sh-Shit!

This place is already Cough!

Lord Uriel stay aw"Beep.

The communication was cut.

The tips of Kang-Woos mouth curled up.

"Now, lets set the stage.

"
