I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor

Chapter 198

Episode 198

“It’s strange. Very strange.”

Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!

A small octagonal shrine.

Mungchi was standing and hovering around the unconscious Damian. Suddenly, the figure holding a checkered bread hat and a magnifying glass looked like a private detective from a certain cartoon movie.

It’s been less than 5 minutes since his owner, Damian, lost consciousness with his eyes wide open, but it’s also true that he hasn’t shown any biological reaction since he put his hand on the stone statue of Akrasia Yu holding a lottery (?).

Even more, it was only natural for Mungchi, who knew that if a human did not show a biological reaction for 5 minutes, that he was in a state of being as good as dead.

It was a sentiment expressed from a mixed feeling of half doubt and half concern.

No matter how much Damian had warned him to return to the spirit world if something happened, it wasn’t a very good picture for him to abandon his master and run away.

Even if I could do that, I had no desire to go back to the old-fashioned spirit realm—at least it was like that for Mungchi.

It was because after returning to the spirit realm, if Damian died, the possibility that he and his master could meet again was almost zero.

“If the owner dies, I can’t buy a bag of nuts. The master must live.”

“Beep!”

...Of course, the fact that the biggest reason was in the brilliance Brünak, which was close to 1 billion gold, was the fact that the owner was no different from the summoned beast.

“It doesn’t look dead. The owner must be alive. Either I’m out of my mind or I’m crazy about it, or both!”

Poof!

As the wad flew over Damien’s shoulder and raised the magnifying glass above his head, the new chicks huddled at his feet raised their heads at the same time.

It looked like cats who saw a sparrow on the wall.

However, even so, it is not that the newbies are knowledgeable enough to notice the state of Damian, who has been sucked into consciousness.

Even if they knew the situation, all the newbies could do was tilt their heads innocently.

“Even the owner is insane! I don’t know why you’re so reckless when you say you only have one life!”

“Beep beep beep beep!”

And soon, as if Munchki had become a doctor, he lifted Damian’s eyelids and pointed a magnifying glass at the whites of the upside down.

“Lord master?!”

“Pia?!”

Cool!

Immediately, blood poured out of Damian’s mouth.

“The main owner is in trouble!!! Why the hell are you vomiting blood!!”

“Beep!!!”

As Damian vomited blood from his seat, the new chicks circled around, holding their heads with their two wings.

It was a bonus that the wad that had turned into a riotous mountain grabbed Damian by the scruff of his neck and shook him.

I didn’t know why Mungchi, the new chicks, or Damian coughed up blood, but anyway, it seemed like something was wrong with Damian’s body.

It was only natural that the bunch and the new chicks made a fuss without even taking any action, especially since it was hemoptysis bursting out of a corpse without even being aware of it.

What was thought to be a mere rumor could become a reality.

Damian remembered Brunak. Like broken windows being put together in his head, the fragmented memories were gradually being reconstructed into a single picture.

A rare magic spear that penetrates everything and does not miss, and moves by itself.

It is a weapon that has been with Yu of Akrasia, a divine spear, and an instrument of extinction that has been eradicating demons for hundreds of years, including the seven demon grand dukes.

However, it is unknown what is sleeping inside it.

The light spear Brunak, which was protected by powerful magic and runes, had an aspect that did not fit its name, and Damian was only able to realize that the legend his old colleague had told him was real.

It was quite a remarkable achievement for stepping up to the legacy of forgotten heroes while relying on legends.

In fact, he didn’t really care whether he was Brunak or whatever, and the reason he came here in the first place wasn’t simply to get his hands on a legendary weapon called Brunak.

Yes, that was not the purpose from the beginning.

There was no sense that the host and guest had been evangelized, but it was only after the teachings of his teacher Keiron that he stepped into the old castle Agilante.

What Damian wanted was not the realization of far-off wealth and the exercise of powerful power through Brunak.

It was because he tried to control the ‘darkness’, which was called the inner demon, through an instrument that was even called a divine object.

But...

“...Why did I do that?”

Damian buried himself on the sofa where he was sitting alone, feeling that his consciousness was becoming hazy again.

If you think about the whole process, it was really not like that.

He, who does not move until he has the minimum basis and certainty about something, risked abandoning his comfort by leaning on the secret story and the forgotten history that his old colleague said?

And through it, all of this—from going to the southern continent through Hassan and Maria—was put into action?

Of course, there were quite a few twists and turns, but as a result, we found the legacy of a forgotten hero.

Although he is also a human being, it is an established theory in the academic world that he cannot be calculated forever in making a momentary decision.

Needless to say, it was an exceptional fact that at least such Damian threw his whole body into tiny expectations and clues.

It was a behavior that he himself did not understand well.

Not to mention, even his old colleague Halo didn’t know whether the weapon Akrasia Yu was using had that much power.

Given that Damian was also skeptical of the question of whether Brunach would help him control something inside him.

Even looking at it from all angles, it is credible to say that his mind has gone temporarily or that he has been possessed by something.

So Damian’s impulsive decisions and actions made him come this far, maybe because he felt a sense of crisis enough to risk his life in hopes of himself.

It was proof that he had lost his composure and was impatient.

In the first place, he returned to the present, 10 years ago, to live a second life again.

That is why he faced the -9999999999 tendency and the terrible system—or the curse—that once he died, even his true nature could not live again.

Not only did he step into the worst dungeon on earth under the name < Demon King's Expedition > right before he was killed at the hands of Cheolcheon enemy named Yoo Min in his previous life.

It was because he returned from his previous life after hearing the message of Abraxas, the worst and most evil demon in history, who invaded Middle-earth from the demon world using that dungeon as a base for advancement.

At least, he had no choice but to think that if he had the legacy of a hero who single-handedly stopped the forces of the seven demons, he might be able to control his inner darkness.

– Kick... Ki-kick... Kick...!

“...!”

At that moment, an unfamiliar laugh echoed in Damian’s ears.
