Epilogue
"Mom, spread your legs wider."
"Sia, stop..."
"Mom, do you like it when I touch you here?"
A heartwarming scene of a daughter caring for her mother.
Overcome by the poignant sight, I couldn't hold back and ejaculated.
White fluid enveloped their bodies.
*Lick*. "Mom, how can you be so careless spilling semen everywhere?"
"We'll clean you up nicely."
The daughters licked their mother's semen-covered body.
Sword Queen's body was soon spotless.
These were happy times.
The atmosphere couldn't have been more peaceful.
I joined the mother-daughter trio for a 5P session, blending into the mood.
[Warning! Warning! Otherworldly God entity approaching Earth!]
But the window flashing before my eyes shattered the atmosphere.
Otherworldly God?
I recalled the term the System had mentioned before.
When speaking of gods from other worlds, it had used the Shadow Giant as an example.
Such a monster seemed to be approaching Earth.
"What? Did you all get this too?"
"Master, I saw it too."
Apparently it wasn't just me.
The message had reached Seol-hwa and the other three sisters.
[Immediately gather all available forces and head to Paju.]
The System urged. Time seemed truly short.
I decided to follow the System's instructions.
Gathered every available combatant.
Including Myohaengseong Guild members and cocksleeves obtained from killing kin.
The assembled forces numbered over fifty.
'Will this be enough?'
Uncertain. The only certainty was that doing nothing meant death.
"Ah... The day has finally come. The day of destruction foreseen by the System..."
Sword Queen's mental state had shattered. Rare were the situations that could break someone as powerful as her.
Clearly our opponent was a monster far surpassing the Shadow Giant.
'I can't attach clones to all personnel. Sacred Resistance traits are insufficient too. Then... Except for a select few, others will serve as supplements.'
Seol-hwa. The three sisters. Sword Queen and others.
I attached clones to the chosen few.
All clones possessing Sacred Resistance traits.
Their trembling bodies stabilized.
"You know what to do, right?"
I double-checked with Sword Queen just in case.
Couldn't risk failure due to lingering resentment.
"Understood..."
She obediently accepted my body.
Recognized the power within Sacred Resistance.
The System's choice hadn't been wrong.
Realizing the truth, she submitted to me.
Outside, we could see the enemy.
Above Seoul's skies.
A massive presence loomed.
Early dawn.
Amidst the rising sun's rays, the colossal entity undulated like a shadow.
Giant wings sprouted from its back.
Where a face should be wasn't human skin.
Undulating tentacle clusters.
[Light Devoured by the Abyss has appeared.]
[The Otherworldly God hasn't fully crossed over yet.]
[Stop the Otherworldly God.]
[If you recall the path you've walked, you can defeat it.]
I knew exactly what needed to be done.
******
'Success. Finally succeeded.'
As one of the four leaders guiding their kin, the Apostle Seat erupted with radiance.
Finally set foot in the world Lord Jugu desired.
Earth's God hadn't yet been born.
Though it attempted resistance, it was pitiful.
Even with an incomplete manifestation, they stood no chance against us with only part of its body crossed over.
Billions of souls would wholly belong to Lord Jugu.
His wings trembled with ecstasy.
Lord Jugu's joy was his happiness.
He rejoiced at having contributed to Lord Jugu's cause.
"Ha, insects. You came to die willingly."
But some tried to stop Lord Jugu's resurrection.
This land's creatures. These insect-like beings blocked their path.
Laughable. He sneered at the pathetic humans.
Hiding had been necessary before shedding his husk.
Now at full power, humans couldn't oppose them.
But his sneer soon vanished.
Overwhelming power pressed down on the world.
Though not fully crossed over, power rivaling all four of them combined.
Sword Queen raised her sword and approached.
Yes, Sword Queen was different.
He abandoned his mocking attitude and faced her seriously.
"Old man. This wasn't our deal. You promised to hand over South Korea completely if I broke Sword Queen."
Someone shattered the tense atmosphere.
A familiar voice coming from Sword Queen's body.
"The human who entered the husk. Could've hidden in some small kingdom if you escaped."
He mocked the foolish human.
Seemed they'd succeeded in subduing Sword Queen.
He never imagined Sword Queen could lose.
"Is that so? Then negotiations have broken down."
With those words, Sword Queen's body instantly vanished.
Simultaneously, a comrade fell.
The newly ascended fourth-ranked Apostle, Aronsoja's master.
With a tearing scream, her body crumbled to dust.
'How...?'
Power beyond expectations. The Sword Queen he knew wasn't this strong.
'Strengthened by that bastard's power?'
He realized the truth. The crimson flesh mass clinging to Sword Queen's body.
The human who wore a husk was empowering Sword Queen.
Meanwhile, two more comrades fell.
Only he remained.
"...Kgh."
But Sword Queen wasn't faring well either.
Knocked to the ground by recoil.
Her sword had been shattered.
"Ha, Sword Queen's fallen."
He sneered at Sword Queen.
"Sword Queen's "
Sword Queen's daughters blocked his path.
The three sisters' power was weaker than Sword Queen's but not negligible.
Battle ensued. He defeated the three sisters too.
But couldn't overcome their final prepared card.
The last thing he saw was a sword piercing between his eyes before losing consciousness.
******
"Phew, failed again."
Returned to the past.
Something felt different.
Though sensing something alien, Sera ignored it.
'Same as always. Ha, how did that bastard set this difficulty level?'
No matter how many regressions, the starting point remained identical.
Right after Sword Queen burned her life to stop the Otherworldly God's manifestation.
About a month after the incident was resolved.
'How am I supposed to prevent destruction from this state? Is that god bastard insane?'
She muttered complaints.
If only Sword Queen survived, achieving humanity's salvation would've been easier.
But nothing remained at this point.
No Sword Queen, no Sword Queen's daughter Isia - nothing left.
Had to start from zero.
Tried every method to prevent humanity's destruction but found no solution.
"Hurry. Before the mart closes."
She grabbed money and headed out.
Less than a month since Light Devoured by the Abyss emerged from Paju Restricted Zone.
Society still functioned but would soon collapse.
Needed to gather supplies before then.
"What?"
But her expectations proved wrong.
Outside. The streets showed no chaos.
People went about their daily lives.
First time experiencing this despite over 100 regressions.
Though confused, she headed to the mart.
News about damage recovery played on street billboards.
'What? This should be peak destruction time...'
The billboard news changed.
Now reporting Myohaengseong Guild enhancing national prestige.
The guild's name that vanished with Isia's death in dungeons.
She stared in shock at the guild name that should've faded.
This regression felt abnormal.
Fundamentally different from previous cycles.
'First, head to Myohaengseong Guild.'
Intuiting the guild held answers, she searched for its location online.
Soon arrived at Myohaengseong Guild.
Previously ruins, now a high-rise building stood there.
'Seol-hwa? That bitch is the Blood Witch.'
At the high-rise's counter sat a familiar face.
Blood Witch. Yoo Seol-hwa.
The woman who went mad after losing comrades in Restricted Zones.
One of her early headaches with blood-related abilities.
Now sat at Myohaengseong Guild's front desk.
'She should be a villain by now. Why is she here?'
Too much had changed.
She entered the guild to gather information.
Ding.
The door opened automatically upon entering.
Her vision darkened.
"Master, brought her as ordered. She really appeared right on schedule?"
"Well done, Seol-hwa. She must be the one the System mentioned."
Voices echoed around her.
The witch's voice she never wanted to hear even in dreams, and a monster's inhuman voice.
"Wh-where is this?"
The voices faded.
She opened her eyes.
A strange pasture-like space.
"What is this place?"
She looked around.
Countless women bound everywhere.
A space seemingly designed for breeding.
Thick tentacles teased the limb-bound women.
Screams and moans filled the air.
A maddening sight.
Light returned to the space beyond the silhouettes.
The vanished witch and monster returned.
She stared wide-eyed at the light source.
Could always die if necessary.
Infinite Regression granted her absolute confidence.
'Sword Queen? How?'
Eyes adjusted to the light.
A group entered the space.
Familiar faces appeared.
Sword Queen and the three sisters.
Along with Ability Users who later made names during the destruction.
All these powerful figures were under the monster's control.
"How..."
Didn't know how they'd been broken.
But clearly needed to escape immediately.
She tried to kill herself.
[Final Threshold reached. Death now prevents regression.]
Despair filled her at the window's message.
Regression blocked. For unknown reasons, impossible here.
"A regressor... What an excellent intelligence-gathering tool."
"Indeed. Never imagined the System had regression abilities too. Truly godlike."
The monster muttered.
Hearing this, she realized.
Her 100+ regressions were illusions.
Her mission wasn't preventing destruction.
Collecting information for these creatures was her purpose.
She wasn't the protagonist - another entity was.
An inhuman monster was the System's chosen hero.
Repeated regressions were devices to feed information to the monster.
She was merely a tool.
"Nooooooo!"
Realizing the truth, she burst into tears.
Over 100 regressions.
All leading to this?
Unbelievable. Wanted to deny reality.
But as the monster approached and swallowed her,
Her sobs soon turned to screams.
[Ending Reached]
[Simulation Match Rate 100%]
[Earth Avoided Destruction]
The text flickered.
Having completed all tasks, the System entered temporary hibernation.
