Chapter 191 : Chapter 191
What is the way to return to the original world visible beyond that sky?This was a fundamental question for all players in this world, including those on the Anonymous Bulletin Board, and for some, it was practically their purpose.
-Fck, just what is the way to go back? Does seriously no one know?
-Father Pae... You were right.
-But if the Supreme King hadn't died, could we have really gone back to Earth?
-Who knows about that.
-But can we really go back to Earth while remaining players? Then that's fr EasyLife.
-But is there really no one who collected Fragments? Wouldn't there be at least one or two people who collected quite a few?
└Because of the danger the Fragments possess, people who kept their sanity are rare. Even if they maintained their mind, they would be Demonic persons.
└What's a Demonic person?
└Ah... Must be a newbie.
Previously, stories about the danger of the Demonic energy possessed by Fragments and Demonic persons were rarely discussed within the Anonymous Bulletin Board, but the situation changed after the Supreme King opened the sky.
Stories about the Demonic energy contained in Fragments and Demonic persons were now openly discussed within the Anonymous Bulletin Board.
It meant that since the Supreme King opened the sky, many things had changed for the players as well.
-Ah... I had a close older brother, but he sucked on a Fragment and went crazy... I told him to do it in moderation.
-But is there anything bad about becoming a Demonic person?
└Try it and tell me.
└Guy above, don't BS. Don't even think about actually eating a Fragment and becoming a Demonic person;; It's really dangerous.
└Scared?
Amidst such a situation, a certain post appeared on the Anonymous Bulletin Board.
-[★] About Returning to Earth
Normally, just because one or two such posts were uploaded, it wouldn't have been able to attract the attention of the Anonymous Bulletin Board users.
It is true that the story about returning to Earth is a very hot topic and an interesting subject, but that was because countless posts with similar content were being uploaded.
However, the post uploaded this time was somewhat different from those posts.
The biggest difference was, as expected, the star mark attached in front of the post's title.
Originally, in the Anonymous Bulletin Board, the star mark is attached to the back of posts that rise to the recommended posts.
However, a post with a star mark attached to the front of the title was something completely new to the Anonymous Bulletin Board users.
Naturally, that post attracted countless eyes among the Anonymous Bulletin Board users, and soon that post even went up to the recommended posts.
The content of the post was concise.
──────────────
Hello.
Since it seems many people on the Anonymous Bulletin Board are curious about the method to return to Earth, I would like to share the information I know.
First, to return to Earth, you must open the ‘Door’ connecting Earth and the Lagna Continent.
However, currently, among the ‘Doors’, only some doors that allow one-way passage from Earth to the Lagna Continent are open, and to open a door going from the Lagna Continent to Earth, a key is absolutely necessary.
Then what is the key?
As some of you may already know, the key is the Fragment.
The Fragment is a very important key connecting Earth and the Lagna Continent.
That is why many players are striving to reach the ‘Door’ by absorbing Fragments even now, and it has continued until now.
However, absorbing Fragments is not as simple a task as it sounds.
If you absorb Fragments excessively, a symptom called Demonic person-ification begins, and your reason is gradually encroached upon.
The phenomenon so-called Demonic person-ification occurs.
However, not everyone loses their reason during the Demonic person-ification process, and I am also a Demonic person but am maintaining my reason.
Absorbing Fragments to reach the truth of this world and finding a way to return home is something someone must do.
At least I will not push that responsibility to others.
If I find out new information related to the Door and the key, I will share it.
Thank you for reading.

-What is this? Why is there a star in front of only this post? Who is the writer?
-What the, is it an operator?
└Where is an operator, dude...
└There are Notices, so why wouldn't there be an operator?
└? There are Notices? Crazy.
-Lolololololololol
-But aren't they advocating for Demonic persons too much? Is there anyone who doesn't know Demonic persons are dangerous guys?
└It is true that it's dangerous, but they are saying there is a part where they sacrifice themselves. Are you illiterate?
-What's with the post star?
-Ah.. Aah... Father Ma. I realize it only now.
-Why write such nonsense for so long? If the purpose is just, can you do anything? Just Demonic person level.
-Hmm...
-But according to these words, isn't becoming a Demonic person an inevitable thing? Someone has to sacrifice.
-That is true.
The public opinion of that post could be seen as roughly half and half.
The side that acknowledges the danger of Demonic persons but advocates for their sacrifice.
The side that warns about the danger they possess regardless of the Demonic persons' purpose.
However, at least half of the public opinion was advocating for the existence of Demonic persons, and naturally, the Anonymous Bulletin Board users' perception of Demonic energy and Demonic persons also had to change little by little.
Until now, Demonic persons were considered beings like dangerous criminals or murderers to players, but starting from that post, they transformed into heroes who sacrificed themselves to reach the truth and find a way to return to Earth.
It was then.
[Notices have been updated.]
A new post was updated in the Notices, which had been silent until now.
-Emergency guide regarding the closure of the first Ascension Gate.
──────────────
The first Ascension Gate has been forcibly closed by the Postponer of Ruin.
Ascension is suspended.
To reopen the Ascension Gate, the consent of the closer, the Postponer of Ruin, or the death of the person in question is required.
Following the suspension of Ascension, the disconnecting force between the worlds becomes stronger.
Make the right choice.
──────────────
Although the Notices were updated, there were not that many players who possessed the authority to actually check that post.
In the first place, no matter how strong a player was, Level 5 authority was practically the limit, and the general opinion was that from above that, one could not handle the Demonic person-ification.
However, saying they are rare does not mean they do not exist.
Demonic persons with Level 6 authority or higher who finished Demonic person-ification could sufficiently read the Notices, and they were able to read a few pieces of information in the Notices.
-The first door has been closed.
This came as a much greater shock than expected among the Demonic persons.
Soon, a common goal came to mind in the heads of the Demonic persons.
-Kill the Postponer of Ruin.
It was unknown whether that was their own will or the will of another caused by Demonic energy.
The Demonic persons simply rose from their seats.
To find the Postponer of Ruin.

“Haa…….”
Yuliana, who was examining the Anonymous Bulletin Board inside the office, let out a deep sigh.
She knew that the atmosphere of the Anonymous Bulletin Board had been unusual recently.
What drove a wedge in there was the post of the Demonic person that rose to the recommended posts recently.
It was because the atmosphere within the Anonymous Bulletin Board was fluctuating greatly, and that was having a not insignificant influence on Yuliana as well.
Bellerophon is a guild created because of the danger Fragments possess.
But what if the existence of Fragments and Demonic persons was actually a necessary evil?
If the existence of Fragments and Demonic persons was absolutely necessary for players to return to their hometown?
In front of a huge justification, the existence of Bellerophon would lose its significance, and Yuliana would also no longer be able to remain in Bellerophon.
Yuliana was not foolish enough to be swayed to the end by a justification she herself could not accept, and such wisdom was making Yuliana painful right now.
“……Vell Blackwood.”
Yuliana hoped.
Please, may Vell Blackwood come bringing the answer to resolve her agony.

I headed straight to the Griffin Knights in the Imperial Capital.
Seeing that the Imperial Capital was quite quiet, it seems that the choice to absorb the Ascension Stone Fragment above the stratosphere was not a bad choice.
If the citizens of the Imperial Capital had sensed the abnormality that occurred above that sky, some commotion should have happened by now, but the Imperial Capital was the same as usual as if nothing had happened.
As soon as I entered the office of the Griffin Knights, Yuliana kicked off her chair and stood up, welcoming me.
“You came!”
“Uh…… That is true, but were you waiting?”
“Yes. I was waiting!”
Unlike her usual chic appearance, Yuliana welcomed me intensely, very openly.
“Did the Fragment absorption finish safely?”
“Yeah. It’s finished.”
“Then perhaps…….”
Since it was obvious what Yuliana would ask, I shook my head.
“Speaking honestly, I didn't obtain the answer you wanted.”
“That’s…….”
Yuliana's expression darkened rapidly.
“But it’s not necessarily just that.”
“What does that mean?”
“I didn't obtain the justification for why Bellerophon must exist, but at least one fact has become certain.”
I spoke about what I had seen this time.
“The Fragment possesses a will.”
“Possesses…… a will, you say?”
“Yeah. I don't know what the purpose is, but the Fragment wants Earth and this world to be completely connected.”
“……But that alone cannot be seen as certain evidence.”
“Well. Sometimes, intentional omission of information can also be seen as evidence. Right now, the Fragment is showing players only the benefits of returning to Earth to a naked degree. It is not showing the disadvantages resulting from that at all.”
“If you say disadvantages…… what are you referring to?”
“Thinking simply, if a passage connecting Earth and this world is created, what do you think will happen?”
It is not simply players that exist on the Lagna Continent.
Demonic beasts and the original inhabitants of this world.
And even transcendental beings like demons.
If those beings meet Earth's civilization, what on earth will happen.
“But it’s strange.”
Yuliana raised a question.
“If the Fragment really possesses a will and is intentionally trying to connect the two worlds, can't it just do it itself? Why does it take such a troublesome method like this?”
“It must be because it cannot. Have you forgotten what the most absolute law existing in this world is?”
Yuliana's expression became strange, and then she moved her lips as if she realized.
“Everything has a price…….”
“Right.”
The Ascension Stone Fragment seems to possess transcendental authority at a glance, but compared to revealing its will nakedly, it is revealing limits.
Borrowing the hands of players to create a passage connecting the two worlds was also like that.
Doesn't that scene look like the appearance of mages using specific constraints and conditions to reduce the price of a contract?
It was also powerful evidence that the Ascension Stone Fragment did not possess omnipotent authority.
“……There will be a lot to think about.”
“There won't be much time. If the Fragment really possessed a will, it will show some action soon.”
“Yes?”
Yuliana looked at me with a blank face.
There was only one thing I could tell her regarding that.
“I closed one of the doors connecting Earth and the Lagna Continent. Now, there won't be any new players appearing.”
“What does that……!”
At that moment when Yuliana's expression was dyed with shock.
Booooooom───!!!
Along with a roar that suddenly rang out from somewhere, a huge explosion occurred before my eyes.
