God of Blackfield

An Epilogue Within an Epilogue - Into Another World

All he remembered was a flash of red light that seemed to swallow the whole world and a pain that wracked his body.

Thud!

Then, Kang Chan fell to the floor.

Argh!”

As he gritted his teeth and pushed himself up with his arms, stones the size of his thumbnails pressed into his palms.

So this was why he felt as if he was being stabbed with awls.

Kang Chan turned and glanced around, finding layers of jagged mountains obscuring the view. In the sky, which was on the verge of a rain shower, a Blackhead was exuding a blood-red light, shining like a moon.

Swiiish!

The blowing wind smelled foul—almost like sulfur. His gut was warning him.

Damn it!

Kang Chan examined himself again.

He still hadn’t gone numb.

He was sure he was dead, though. The Blackhead had exploded. Kang Chan also remembered being hit by a huge beam of light. When he woke up, he found himself on a mountain of jagged stones, wearing nothing but a suit and shirt.

Hah!”

He was on the side of the mountain. There was a sheer cliff in front of him, tempting him to jump off at any moment if he didn’t like this life. Behind him was a rocky path to the top.

Kang Chan sat down on the ground with his back against the rocks and his right knee upright. He then looked around again.

He could clearly see the dark sky and the Blackhead floating high in it.

Kang Chan smirked and dug through his pockets, finding cigarettes and a lighter.

What else?

Two pistols, one strapped to the back of his waist and the other to his right ankle, a bayonet at his left ankle, and finally, a radio and magazine behind his left waist.

Kang Chan peered into his cigarette pack and counted them. To his relief, he had quite a few left.

Click!

Hooo!”

He didn’t seem to be dead, but it was hard to tell where he was.

Taking another drag of his cigarette, Kang Chan glanced at the Blackhead that was floating at his forehead’s height.

This could be a dream he was having while lying in a coma in the hospital. If he jumped from here, wouldn’t he be able to also jump out of the hospital bed from shock?

Hooo!”

It was like the curse of the Blackhead.

Forced to succumb to Kang Chan’s world, the Blackhead used its nuclear abilities to drag him into its own.

Kang Chan couldn’t help but laugh.

First, he was put into the body of a Korean high school student and forced to go through so many hardships. Now, he was left alone in this desolate world.

The faint red glow of the world seemed somewhat bizarre. Kang Chan also felt as if he was sitting in the window of a large butcher shop display.

What happened to Seok Kang-Ho and Gérard?

Did they die? Were they thrown into a different world, sitting alone, smoking a cigarette? Maybe they were clutching his dead body in the real world, crying.

Kang Chan turned around and looked at his shadow.

Strangely, the shadow reassured him.

“So you wanna give it a go in your world, huh?” Kang Chan muttered to himself, looking at the Blackhead that was now above his forehead.

Kang Chan stubbed out his cigarette on the ground.

Patter.

Just then, he heard pebbles crunching under footsteps. It could have been a man or an animal.

Shing!

Kang Chan drew the bayonet strapped to his ankle.

He then put his hands behind his back and carefully pressed off against the stone he had been leaning against.

Standing up like this prevented him from making noise.

Swiish!

As the wind blew, he heard more movements coming from within.

Haah. Haah.

In this slow-moving world, the shadows created by the red light were clearly illuminated on the stone walls.

Patter!

He could now hear the footsteps on the cobblestones coming from the left.

Whatever it was could probably move without a sound as well.

Haah. Haah.

Kang Chan listened to himself breathe as he held his bayonet in a reverse grip. He then glared sharply ahead.

This time, the heard a rattle from the right.

There are two of them!

Kang Chan lowered and steadied himself.

Whoosh!

At the same time, a black shadow charged from the right.

It was a person!

Kang Chan stretched out his left hand to grab the moving person by the neck.

The opponent slapped Kang Chan’s wrist.

Kang Chan moved as if aiming for the person’s side but suddenly turned to his left.

Whoosh!

Though seemingly caught off guard, the person was still quick enough to lunge at Kang Chan.

Swish!

Kang Chan tried to elbow the gigantic man.

“Captain!” a guttural cry burst out.

Beneath the red glow stood Seok Kang-Ho, and across from him was Gérard with a complicated expression.

***

Seok Kang-Ho, Kang Chan, and Gérard sat with their backs to the stone mountain and cigarettes in their mouths.

“So you guys have been here for three days already?”

“That’s right. I got bitten by a damn rabbit and lost a chunk of flesh here.”

Seok Kang-Ho pulled up the hem of his pants to show his shins.

“Bullshit. Rabbits aren’t dogs.”

“Hey! ​​Gérard! You tell him.”

Kang Chan turned to Gérard.

“Daye’s actually telling the truth this time. That idiot wanted to eat a rabbit and kicked it, but the rabbit jumped and bit his leg.”

Kang Chan shook his head in disbelief.

“That’s not all. Rabbits also came at us in hordes. We thought we were going to die.”

“Didn’t you have your bayonets and rifles?’

“Well, there were so many of them that they turned the field black. We had no choice but to run.”

“Black?”

“Black rabbits!” Seok Kang-Ho exclaimed, seemingly upset and frustrated.

“What did you eat the past three days, then?”

“Well, the first day, we were panicked and surprised, so we just starved. The second day, we caught a green pig.”

Kang Chan couldn’t help but sigh.

“It looks like a pig, but it’s only this big.”

Seok Kang-Ho spread his palms to the size of a big piggy bank.

“We’re not dead, are we?” Kang Chan mused.

“We wouldn’t be here otherwise. We can feel hunger and pain, and we can hunt pigs.”

Kang Chan nodded. “That’s true.”

“Anyhow, there isn’t a single tree here. What brought you this way?”

“That idiot angered a rabbit again, so we ran here. We saw something moving and thought it might be a pig, so we drove to corner it from both sides,” Gérard answered.

Kang Chan stubbed out his cigarette on the ground. “Is there water or trees down there?”

“If you go straight up there, it’s as green as gold. From there, though, it’s rabbit country. We’ve never been further than that.”

Kang Chan nodded.

He’d landed in a place that made no sense. Considering this place had rabbits that bit like dogs, the two arriving at this place three days earlier than him didn’t even surprise him anymore.

“Do you think it’s the Blackhead?”

“It’s night right now. There are three of them in the morning. They’re brighter, too.”

“Shit,” Kang Chan cussed.

Gérard grinned.

“What?”

“It’s nothing. I just thought at least the three of us are together.”

That was true.

Kang Chan smirked, and Daye chuckled.

“Anyhow, if we fell here because of a nuclear explosion, doesn’t that mean we have to somehow blow up that damn stone to get back?”

“How are we supposed to blow up something hanging in the sky?”

Seok Kang-Ho sighed heavily and shook his head.

Right after, Kang Chan heard rustles.

Huh?”

Seok Kang-Ho and Gérard jumped to their feet and poked their heads out from behind the rocks.

“Captain! Get up! It’s the rabbits!” Seok Kang-Ho urged.

Why are they so scared about rabbits coming?

It didn’t seem real, but if Seok Kang-Ho and Gérard were acting this way, Kang Chan had to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Kang Chan quickly stood up and turned his head toward Gérard.

The sight seriously surprised him.

Black rabbits were scurrying across the field behind the mountains, faintly illuminated by the red Blackhead’s light. They covered the entire mountain.

Not only that, but Kang Chan could clearly see their sharp, pointed teeth every time their snouts twitched.

They were about twenty meters away from the front runners.

Kang Chan turned his head, and Gérard nodded.

“Run, Captain!”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The three began to run, and the rabbits sped up in unison as if they had Gérard’s shout.

Squeak, squeak, squeak! Squeak, squeak! Squeak, squeak, squeak!

They sounded like field rats.

Haah, haah! Haah, haah!”

The three ran like mad, yet they still managed to close the distance down to ten meters.

“Over there!”

Seok Kang-Ho pointed to a cliff ahead.

“Jump!”

Squeak, squeak, squeak! Squeak, squeak, squeak! Squeak, squeak!

If they didn’t jump, they would be rabbit food.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The three jumped off the cliff, finding a big river waiting for them below..

Thud! Thud! Thud!

After jumping across a length of about seven meters, they swung from the edge of the other side. Meanwhile, the rabbits hadn’t slowed down enough, sending them into the water.

Haah! Haah!”

Fuck this rock! How dare it bring people here to kill them?

Hanging on the other side, Kang Chan pulled himself up to his waist with all his strength.

Just then, the stones that Gérard had been holding on skittered off one by one.

“Grab on! Gérard! Hurry!” Kang Chan shouted, but the stones were falling faster.

Squeak, squeak, squeak! Squeak, squeak!

Against the backdrop of the rabbits crying in frustration, Kang Chan grabbed Gérard’s arm. However, the crumbling stones pushed them down.

“Captain!”

Seok Kang-Ho reached out and grabbed Kang Chan by the nape of his neck.

Swish!

Gérard fell, followed by Kang Chan, and then Seok Kang-Ho.

You fucking rock! This isn’t the end of this!

Splash!

Kang Chan sank deep into the flowing river, bathed in red light.

Everyone reacted the same way when falling into water; they’d desperately try to swim up as they slowly drowned.

Submerged, all he could see was murky water and small stones.

Kang Chan swam as fast as he could.

When he forced himself to the top, he saw the cliffs on both sides.

Glug!

Even as he sank underwater, Kang Chan kept his eyes open and looked for something to hold on to.

Not too far away, he saw a dark mass. It had to be Daye or ​​Gérard.

Kang Chan was about to come to the top again when something wrapped around his waist and stomach.

Pheew!”

He then shot above the river.

Kegh! Kegh!”

What was that?

After a fit of coughs, Kang Chan looked up.

Grrrr!

That fucking Blackhead!

This was the first time that Kang Chan had ever seen a dragon before—a Western one, no less.

The end.
