Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 169
Episode 169
Aiden slowly opened his mouth.
“I’m going back.”
The couple just nodded without changing their expression at all. Because it was expected.
Return to Earth. This was Yoo Ji-tae’s ultimate goal. No one would refuse if they offered to make it happen right away.
The binder held out his hand.
“Close your eyes and take my hand. “When you lift your eyelids again, you will be home.”
Aiden didn’t move. I stared at him quietly and said.
“Before that, I will end this world first.”
The binder’s eyes wavered slightly.
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t go back and stop the apocalypse.”
Their gazes collided in midair.
The binder slowly lowered his arm.
“They keep intervening, going against the law. “That’s what you’re saying.”
Aiden let out a calm voice.
“I don’t know anything about natural law. However, I will finish what I have already done with my own hands. “That’s it.”
“I don’t understand.”
In some ways, isn’t Yoo Ji-tae a victim? They were dragged in without knowing why and were treated like dogs.
From his perspective, this world would be the perpetrator.
The main culprits are probably the sun and the moon. Because Yoo Ji-tae forced an unnecessary sacrifice on a human being.
There was no reason for Yoo Ji-tae to suffer like this.
Perhaps the tip of his sword should be aimed at the moon and the sun.
The couple thought so and added.
“······Finish. What ending exactly?”
It has always been the same from the beginning until now.
“All demons must disappear.”
Iden’s sword was still aimed at the demon.
The binder said.
“Your enemies will be the moon and the sun. “They are the cause of your suffering.”
It made sense. If Yoo Ji-tae hadn’t been kidnapped by the two, he would have lived a normal life as a modern person.
Iden opened his mouth.
“I gained something as valuable as the hardships I went through.”
“What is it?”
“It’s hard to explain in words.”
I saw people steadfastly moving forward in a terrible world.
Iden realized that flowers bloom even in the mud.
How many times have I felt pure and sincere good intentions? Through Yuriel.
Even people who live in this terrible world do not lose themselves.
A modern man, Yoo Ji-tae, was dissatisfied with the world and lived in a corner of his room like an outcast. How pathetic.
If he hadn’t been kidnapped, Yoo Ji-tae wouldn’t have been able to change.
It was a shitty game, but it was worth it.
The binder said.
“is that so? But no matter what you get, you will perish. It would become meaningless. “If you don’t return now, you won’t be able to enjoy the rewards.”

Iden opened his mouth.
“It will be fine as long as it doesn’t disappear.”
“No matter how much you do, you can’t survive me.”
After saying that, it was right away.
“Even if we win, your return will be delayed for a long time. “To the point where Yoo Ji-tae’s family is swept away by time and disappears.”
How long will it take until we become the Eternal Watcher and find a way to destroy evil?
One hundred years, two hundred years… no, maybe infinite.
No matter what, I won’t be able to see my family again.
On the surface, it was like that.
Iden, who was lost in thought for a moment, opened his mouth.
“I have answered your questions faithfully so far.”
The person involved was Joo Eok.
“That doesn’t seem like you.”
“So let me ask you one thing too.”
The person making a gesture with his hand as if asking a question.
“Why doesn’t the devil go away?”
“You know they are born from the emotions of the intelligent being. All intelligent beings are the mother of devils. Peeling the young is a mother’s instinct.”
In short, it meant that as long as intelligent beings exist, the devil is also eternal.
Iden narrowed his eyes.
“I’m not trying to give you an obvious answer. Murciela said that ‘evil’ is forced upon the demons.”
I thought it was a system in the game.
If you provide absolute evil, the user’s goal becomes clear. The immersion in the game will also be much higher.
However, this world is not a game.
Isn’t this an actual reality? In that case, any being was bound to have a mixture of good and evil.
The devil was different.
It was so evil that it was contrived.
There must be a reason why their tendencies are absolutely evil and why the devil is eternal.
That was Aiden’s thoughts.
The binder opened his mouth.
“It’s evil. From a purely human perspective, yes.”
Iden stared at him in silence.
The bridegroom continued speaking.
“Many intelligent organisms, including humans, survive through the sacrifice of other living beings.”
They live by slaughtering animals and damaging nature.
“It’s the same with the devil. However, their forms are not animals or plants, but only intelligent beings. Think about it differently. Aren’t you the devil when it comes to cows and pigs?”
Iden nodded.
“good night. Regardless of their tendencies, why are only the devils eternal?”
“Feeling…”
“Don’t say that you conceive from feeling. I’ve never seen them born that way. Rather, it resembles a human. “They build a family and reproduce among themselves.”
Their society was also like that of humans.
Authority and power are inherited through a family established through blood ties.
“If what you say is true, it would be very easy to prevent the apocalypse. “It ends with killing all the demons.”
It will happen. Iden was denying the premise that demons are eternal. It sounded that way to the couple.
“But why has no one succeeded? Even the sun failed.”
Aiden said.
“Because you intervened.”
“In short, the eternity of demons is an illusion, and if I hadn’t intervened, would the sun have destroyed all demons?”
“I guess so.”
“There is no basis for your claims. It’s just blind faith. Isn’t that just what you want to believe? Sources killed by you. Newly born demons have already begun to fill that throne. “This is clear proof that the devil is eternal.”
Aiden let out a calm voice.
“Of course the devil keeps appearing. The Hell Palace spits them out. However, this cannot be evidence that this birth was conceived from emotion. No matter how much you think about it, they are contrived.”
Iden stared straight at the binder.
“As if someone created it that way.”
“It’s just your speculation.”
“another one. You, who protects nature, appeared in Babylon and blocked the sun. Providence intervened. Why did they do that? “You avoided this question earlier.”
Aiden added.
“The reason you destroyed your identity. “Can you answer now?”
The bride’s expression began to sink.
Aiden continued.
“I think the sun has found an essential way to eradicate the devil. “You had to stop it.”
“The speculations are endless.”
“No, there is a reason. “Just as Babylon has a stairway to heaven, it is also connected to the palace of hell.”
The couple said nothing.
“The Hell Palace also produces demons. Wasn’t the sun planning to head to hell through Babylon? “To destroy the stronghold.”
If successful, the devil will no longer live forever.
It was Aiden’s idea.
“This is why you intervened. Was my guess wrong? “Then tell the truth.”
Unfortunately, my mind’s eye had been blocked from a while ago.
From the moment we got into the topic of the devil’s eternity, there was no response.
The culprit must have used a trick. Additionally, the fact that the mind’s eye was banned also added strength to Iden’s argument.
If I were proud, I would have left it alone. The guy was probably hiding something.
The couple who had been silent for a long time slowly opened their lips.
“······They really won’t let me go.”
My eyesight also returned to normal.
“great. I’ll tell you the truth. “Nothing will change anyway.”
The guy who was squatting raised his upper body.
“First of all, your argument is half right and half wrong.”
Iden listened.
“that’s right. The devil is an artificial being. “Someone created it.”
“Did you do that?”
The binder looked at Aiden and nodded once.
“why?”
“Before that, you were wrong. In reality, demons are born from the emotions of an intelligent being. “I made it that way.”
The mind’s eye confirmed that what he said was true.
“I want to hear your reason before I kill you.”
A bitter look spread across the couple’s face.
“I wanted to create a better world.”
“Like the devil?”
“is it so.”
“I don’t understand.”
The guy held his back and made gray-white ripples.
It was a bit of an unbecoming behavior for a girl.
“Devils are born from negative emotions. “Everyone knows that.”
The binder stopped in place.
“So what’s the best way to eradicate them?”
Iden sensed the guy’s purpose, but didn’t bother to answer.
“If we are not jealous, angry, hateful, or obsessed with each other, the devil will naturally disappear.”
A void flashed across the binder’s face.
“The answer is obvious, but no intelligent being made an effort. “Not once in infinite years.”
“The emotions you speak of are the nature of the intelligent being. “How can I resist?”
The binder nodded.
“that’s right. The malice of intelligence is eternal. The world they rule can never be beautiful. “I came to that conclusion.”
The Blessed One has been giving opportunities for thousands of years, but he has not received anything in return. There was no better world.
“A world full of malice even if there is no devil. What does it mean? “Most people just suffer.”
Aiden said.
“So you’re going to eliminate all sapient beings?”
“It’s natural. You are an obstacle. So please go back. Only then will a pure world arrive.”
Iden shook his head.
“It’s a pure world. It’s just more than four. Don’t animals without intelligence end up trampling on other lives? Fighting is the instinct of living things. “That is purity.”
The binder frowned slightly.
“Are you saying that the spiral of mutual persecution is pure?”
“Accurate. Also, we should aim for goodness, not purity.”
“If it is goodness…”
“It is the act of pursuing goodness while knowing both good and evil. Purity does not know evil. “The difference between beasts and intelligent beings also arises here.”
The binder pondered Aiden’s words and opened his mouth.
“In a word, goodness is the exclusive domain of intelligence. “If it’s as you say.”
“I think so.”
The binder shook his head.
“At one time, I thought so too. But look at the results. Intelligence does evil rather than good. “If it had been the other way around, the devil would have disappeared already.”
Aiden said.
“Our malice is eternal. However, it can be hidden with a line. Even if it’s hypocrisy.”
“What does that mean?”
“At least it will be a better world.”
“I tried repeating it several times. “Utopia will never come.”
Aiden let out a calm voice.
“I haven’t tried it.”
“What…”
“Let me try.”
The binder looked directly at Iden. After looking at it for a while, I took a deep breath.
“I’ll give you one last chance. Would you like to return?”
Aiden answered calmly.
“I will kill all the demons and return.”
9 years here was 1 year on Earth.
Aiden has a clear goal.
Going back in 27 years. It will be 3 years when it hits Earth.
The binder muttered in an empty voice.
“Then please die.”
“Whatever you do, do it quickly. “Time is running out to clean up your poop.”
Through the binder, I learned roughly the inside story of this world. The rest can be solved through the sun.
The future route has become clear.
