Chapter 284
Logos.
Jin Cheong-un claimed that he was the one who created the Book of Genesis.
I couldn’t tell if he was a man or a woman, but Jin Cheong-un knew the name Logos and that information was something that Yu-hyun had never heard of in his past or present life.
At this moment, I could clearly tell who had the more advantageous information.
“Then who is Logos? He doesn’t seem to be a Divine Spirit, judging by how you talk about him.”
“Wait. Before that, can you send our lady over here first?”
Jin Cheong-un used the information as a weapon and demanded that Shena Lynch be sent over to his side.
Yu-hyun looked down at Shena, who was sitting hesitantly, and wondered if he should threaten her life as a hostage, but soon decided to give up cleanly.
Jin Cheong-un’s personality didn’t seem to be shaken much by taking Shena as a hostage.
It would be nice to have her, but he wouldn’t risk losing anything to save her.
Nevertheless, the reason why Jin Cheong-un appeared in front of Yu-hyun at the risk of danger was that he also wanted to have a conversation with Yu-hyun in his own way.
Yu-hyun nodded at Shena and told her to go over there.
Shena barely gathered strength in her trembling legs and ran to Jin Cheong-un’s side.
“...I’m sorry. Captain.”
“No, it’s not your fault. The enemy was too strong. You go ahead.”
“What about you?”
“I have something to see for a while. And...I can’t guarantee what will happen after this. Shena.”
“...Okay.”
Shena didn’t act stubbornly and disappeared into the darkness.
As soon as I confirmed that her presence was too far away to follow, Jin Cheong-un opened his mouth.
“So, shall we talk about the Book of Genesis?”
“Logos comes first.”
“Oh, right. Logos. I forgot.”
Jin Cheong-un was still relaxed.
He was undoubtedly strong, but the gap in skill between him and Yu-hyun was overwhelming.
If Yu-hyun reached out and grabbed his neck, Jin Cheong-un would surely die without being able to resist.
He knew that, but he acted so confidently because he had confidence.
‘Is it because he trusts that unknown being next to him?’
Considering Jin Cheong-un’s cautious personality, he wouldn’t have brought a trivial guy who was nothing special as a great power.
He must have brought him because he was sure that the guy in the robe could match this side.
And that was against Yu-hyun, who had already surpassed Mu Shin Wimuk, who had a powerful force.
Or maybe he didn’t think he could win, but at least he thought he could buy some time?
Yu-hyun snorted at Jin Cheong-un’s thoughts.
For now, listening to the explanation about Logos was the first priority.
“Yeah. Where should I start? Actually, I only heard the name Logos, I don’t really know much about him.”
“You don’t know much? Then how did you find out about the name Logos?”
“The golden Book of Genesis that I have told me. Very briefly about who itshis creator and real master is.”
“So you don’t know much about Logos then?”
“There’s only one thing. That Logos has a very big connection with the Genesis Foundation.”
“Foundation...”
It was still unknown and even Dae Sung-gun couldn’t touch it easily.
It was the Genesis Foundation.
The place that created the Genesis System that encompassed the mixed world, and an unknown organization that had some connection with all three Teller organizations.
The fact that Logos, who created the Book of Genesis, and the Genesis Foundation were related didn’t seem unbelievable.
Rather, Yu-hyun thought it was plausible.
‘Yeah. The foundation is definitely suspicious.’
How did they make such a huge system that even the first-generation Divine Spirits couldn’t act freely, and why did Dae Sung-gun have to be careful?
Considering the pride of the Divine Spirits, there was a possibility that they would join forces to take over the foundation.
But rather, the Divine Spirits were strangely timid in front of the foundation.
“Looks like you’re thinking a lot. Can I explain more?”
Yu-hyun roughly nodded his chin and told him to do so.
“The Book of Genesis has existed since the beginning of this universe. I don’t know why Logos made such a thing, but maybe if my guess based on the fragment I got is right, Logos wanted to weave this world into one story.”
“Is that what your fragment told you?”
“How else would I know?”
Yu-hyun pondered over what Jin Cheong-woon had told him. The information he gave him was mostly unknown to him as well.
The origin of his ability and where it came from, and the Logos that created it.
And what would happen if all the fragments came together and eventually became the Book of Genesis.
Those were definitely very useful things for Yu-hyun, but
He still couldn’t let go of Jin Cheong-woon who was hiding his true intentions.
“It looks like you don’t know anything more than that, so I guess this is where our conversation ends.”
“I’ve told you so much, can’t you let me go nicely? I can’t beat you no matter how hard I struggle. There’s already a six-fold difference in the number of fragments.”
“You know you can’t do that, that’s why you brought that weird guy with you. And for one fragment, the size of yours is clearly different from others.”
“Oh, you caught me.”
“You know everything anyway, right? Then let’s do it properly.”
Yu-hyun’s eyes burned with rage. He thought that Jin Cheongun would let it go, but he sneered bitterly, saying, “As expected, this is how it turns out.”
The trap that he had set up to get rid of him just in case had given that man even more power.
Jin Cheongun felt the greatest crisis of his life.
Other people said that he only had to be careful of the godless, but well.
The real monster, no, the devil was right in front of him.
“I didn’t want it to come to this, but I have no choice. I’ll leave the rest to you.”
Jin Cheongun’s subordinate, who had been silently standing by until now, nodded his head.
Jin Cheongun retreated. He was trying to run away, but Yu-hyun couldn’t pay attention to him.
Jin Cheongun’s subordinate, the guy who had been emitting an extraordinary aura since a while ago, suddenly increased his presence as if it exploded.
“Your loyalty to your leader is admirable, but do you really need to risk your life for it? Get out of the way if you don’t want to die.”
Yu-hyun glanced at Jin Cheongun, who was getting farther away, and glared at his opponent in front of him.
Most collectors would shrink and be scared without knowing it when they met Yu-hyun’s eyes with the mask of Aporia on, but the other party didn’t budge.
As Jin Cheongun completely disappeared and his fragment power hid him, the book that his opponent had revealed itself.
The book had a faint rainbow color.
And the color of the cover and the glow were the same. It meant that he had achieved his potential to the extreme.
And that he had surpassed the high-ranking collectors.
Yu-hyun admired him purely.
‘Where did he come from?’
But soon he had to frown.
‘The color of the book is somewhat murky.’
It was normal for a proper person to have a book that emitted a very bright light. But the opponent’s book was rainbow-colored, but it was very murky.
It looked like something was mixed in it.
As far as Yu-hyun knew, there was only one person who had a book that was black as if it had been soaked in ink.
‘The Book of Satan was like that.’
But the other party’s book was rainbow-colored, but somehow dark. Did it depend on his personality or mindset?
Whatever it was, it didn’t matter right now. If he didn’t get out of the way and tried to fight him, he had no choice but to fight back.
Yu-hyun took a stance and prepared to fight, but at that moment, the robe that the other party wore backwards exploded like a balloon.
What appeared after tearing the robe to pieces were tentacles that couldn’t be seen as human.
“What?”
Yu-hyun backed away quickly before he could wonder about it.
A bunch of tentacles landed where Yu-hyun had been a moment ago.
[Ew! Crazy! What is that!]
Baekryeon felt disgusted when she saw the other party’s appearance.
Until a while ago, Yu-hyun and Jin Cheongun were just staring at each other without saying anything, but then Jin Cheongun ran away and Yu-hyun started fighting with that weird person.
No, that wasn’t a person but a different kind of monster?
HeShe had never heard of a person who had such things in his body (?).
On the other hand, unlike Baekryeon who was surprised, Yu-hyun narrowed his eyes.
He had some strange parts that looked human but not human, and he looked full of dry emotions. He realized it as soon as he saw him.
“You’re a returnee.”
The other party had vanished with banishing and returned to Earth from another world.
