Chapter 191: Overwhelming
< Chapter 191: Overwhelming (2) >
The sky opened.
Its not a metaphor; the sky literally split apart.
The sky, which had been obscured by a heavy snowfall, brightened in an instant and then turned pitch black just as quickly.
I know better than anyone what this phenomenon means.
The advent of the Demon God.
Whenever the Demon God appeared in the original work, this phenomenon always accompanied him.
A sight as if the pitch-black darkness is tearing the sky in half.
Its certain.
Why is the Demon God appearing now?
Ai looked at me with a bewildered expression.
Because its a peripheral area where neither force is fully prepared. He probably thought it was worth trying.
It was a simple reason that didnt require much thought.
If only Lucifer and Mephisto were here, it would be different.
But since two of Saviors Four Stars, Michael, and Aqua, have appeared, its only natural for the Demon God to turn his attention here.
Did you let Mephisto go because you anticipated this?
While looking at Aqua, who was still on alert in front of me, I asked.
Right. My role was always to be prepared for when the Demon God appeared.
As expected.
So, what will you do now?
The appearance of the Demon God means theres a high probability that his minions will also appear.
If that happens, even if theyre Michael and Aqua, they wont last a minute.
Looking at us, what do you think well do?
Looking at the deepening darkness, Aqua started to concentrate her magic power too.
To anyone watching, she didnt look like she was trying to escape.
Dont tell me, you plan to have a full-blown battle here?
Thats correct.
The next moment, the darkness exploded.
A scene where lightning seems to flash within the dark clouds.
At that moment, Aqua plunged her ice sword, filled with magic power, into the ground.
Not having to worry about protecting someone and just fighting is something weve longed for too!
From the ground, hundreds, no, thousands of ice flowers began to bud.
And as if drawing sustenance from the darkness raining from the sky, these buds bloomed fully.
Spirit Magic! Bow of Nature!
The fully bloomed ice flowers emitted a pure light of water and then shattered.
A large-scale spirit summoning spell using the cold air that fills the earth
This must be the reason why Ini and the Heavenly God sent Aqua.
An insurance policy in case the Demon God appeared.
And the fact that this frozen land is the best field for her must be another reason.
The origins of water and ice attributes are the same.
Naturally, in a place abundant with cold air, the power of the Water Spirit King becomes stronger.
Seo-yul.
Evil energy rained from the sky, clashing with the pure and clear energy erupting from the earth, creating turbulent flows of magic power.
Looking at these turbulent flows, Ai trembled with unease.
I felt the same way.
The hair all over my body stood on end.
Despite being far away, I could feel an incredibly intense force.
If one were in the center of that energy, they wouldnt last a second before being torn apart.
Is this the remnants of magical power?
The shocking thing is that this is the result of a natural collision of magical power.
That fact was incredibly shocking.
The magical power was becoming increasingly intense.
Unable to withstand the fierce flow of magical power, Ai groaned and knelt on the ground.
I was in a similar situation.
Cold sweat dripped all over my body, and my throat went dry with anxiety.
Tense anticipation.
It felt like something was about to happen any second amidst this scene.
Ping-!
There was a sound of something snapping.
With that sound as a cue, all the noises of the world disappeared.
As if even the snowstorm and sharp winds were paying homage to a divine arrival.
All the noise ceased.
Thud, thud.
Amid the silence, someones footsteps echoed.
Heavy and powerful.
In sync with those footsteps, waves of magical power spread in all directions.
As if claiming the world as its own, it spread far and wide.
Flash!
In response, a pillar of light surged from the ground.
A warm summer sunlight-like aura flickered, seemingly trying to purify the darkness.
Amidst the mingling of light and darkness, a heavy voice resonated from the sky.
Why has the perpetual runner, the loser, come today? Ready to humbly accept defeat?
The moment I heard it, genuine chills ran down my spine.
It felt like I was sticking my head vulnerably into a tigers mouth, accompanied by intense fear, making my body stiffen.
Have you not considered that Ive revealed myself because Im fully prepared to deal with you?
In response to that deep bass, a clear high-pitched voice resonated.
No matter what preparations youve made, theres no chance Ill be defeated.
The rhythmic footsteps halted, and from the split sky, a man appeared.
He was 190cm tall.
Red pupils set in black sclera.
Elegant horns on his head.
Six pairs of demon wings on his back.
Pitch-black long hair.
The Demon God smirked.
Arrogant, arent you? Is arrogance a trait of the demon race? Or has everyone learned to be arrogant by watching you?
The pillar of light gradually disappeared, and from within, a woman walked out.
She was about 160cm tall.
Mysterious pupils.
Six pairs of angel wings.
Lustrous silver long hair.
The Heavenly God looked up at the Demon God with a disdainful gaze.
Between the gazes of the two representing light and darkness, intense sparks flew.
Hehehe. Heavenly God, youre still quite the beauty to behold.
Behind the Demon God, a Demon who looked like a troublemaker revealed himself.
The more I look, the more youre to my taste.
He said with a lecherous gaze, licking his lips.
Shut up, Asmodeus. Whenever you speak, it casts doubt on the dignity of our Lord.
From behind the male, a female voice rang out. She was clad in pitch-black armor.
Dont be so stiff, Balrog. Being rigid should be reserved for your armor and chest. Heh heh.
This bastard.
The womans voice grew colder.
Both of you, quiet. If youre planning to make a scene in front of our Lord, Ill kill you myself.
From behind them, a giant man over 4 meters tall walked forward.
The halberds he held in each hand seemed to attest to his immense strength.
First, put on some clothes before talking about being disgraceful, Behemoth.
Asmodeuss expression grew even fiercer.
Filthy bastards.
Balrog felt the same way.
It was clear to anyone watching that the trio didnt get along.
All of you, quiet down. Youre annoying.
Lucifer approached the three with a grim expression.
You, who couldnt even handle a simple task, better not speak as if giving orders. Its disgusting.
Asmodeus gave a sneering laugh and flipped Lucifer off.
This bastard.
Correction.
It wasnt just the three of them all four had bad blood between them.
With the growling foursome, numerous Demon God soldiers gradually began to reveal themselves in the background.
Its noisy.
The Demon God, still locked in a staring contest with the Heavenly God, muttered under his breath.
If one could rank the charisma in ones voice, the Demon Gods would probably be at least SS-rank, given its intensity.
I apologize.
Lucifer was the first to kneel on one knee.
I apologize.
The other three did the same.
They knelt on one knee, bowed their heads, and sought forgiveness.
Its pretty much the hierarchy I know.
It was the same in the original work.
For the demon race, strength is the ultimate truth; none of them think of bowing to each other.
Thats why their relationships are so strained.
Theyre really consistent.
From behind the Heavenly God, Ini walked out, arms crossed behind her neck.
The more I think about being bested by those fools, the more pathetic it feels.
Grinding her teeth, her expression conveyed a desire to chew them up and swallow them right then and there.
Ill handle those guys on behalf of the Lord.
Behind Ini, a blonde male figure emerged.
He was the Gold Dragon Callius, the aide to Dragon Lord Ini and a representative of one of the Four Stars.
Alright, Ill leave them to you guys.
Following Callius, four dragons emerged.
Trailing them, the main forces of the Savior, including the Angel beings, gradually revealed themselves.
Lord Heavenly God.
Michael. Youve done well.
Michael, covered in various wounds, knelt before the Heavenly God.
I apologize. I failed to handle the apostate again today.
Biting his lip with a frustrated expression.
Its okay. Youve done well.
The Heavenly God smiled faintly and placed a hand on Michaels head.
At that moment, the dark magic, which was lingering on Michael like an afterimage, vanished instantly.
At the same time, Michaels wounds rapidly healed.
However.
And I believe. Ultimately, Michael will defeat Lucifer and deliver the hammer of justice to the traitor.
Lord Heavenly God.
With a moved expression, Michael bowed his head and then quickly rose from his position.
He then glared at Lucifer with resolute eyes, as if steeling himself for battle.
Michael, Ill take care of the higher-ups. Please lead the archangels and coordinate with Callius.
Yes, leave it to me.
Determination blazed in Michaels eyes.
Ah~ So tiring~
Aqua approached Ini and the Heavenly God with a slightly weary expression.
Its fortunate this is a frozen land; otherwise, I wouldve been completely drained.
You did well.
Ini patted Aquas head.
Youve worked hard.
The Heavenly God also patted Aquas back.
Hehe.
Aqua giggled softly.
She really is quite similar to Si-yeon in many ways.
Unbelievable.
Ai, looking as if she couldnt be more surprised, opened her eyes wide and scanned the surroundings with her mouth agape.
Ive never seen such an all-star gathering.
The demons that adorned the sky.
The angels on the ground, drawing boundaries.
And the dragons, ready to transform into their true forms at any moment.
Theres not a single person here I could beat right now.
They are all, at the very least, transcendent beings.
Among them, theres not a single one I could currently challenge and win against.
Thats how weak I am right now.
Kang Seo-yul.
In the midst of the suffocating tension,
Without even turning his gaze, Ini called out to me.
Somehow it came to this. Dont worry too much. I have no intention of borrowing your power.
The magic surrounding Ini began to intensify.
It seemed to be filled with euphoria.
Could this be the power of Seo-yul? To think that the opportunity Ive waited for over 7 years would arise now.
The Heavenly God felt the same way.
With a joyous smile, she unfurled all six pairs of his wings.
Watch closely. Well show you what weve been preparing for over these 7 years.
Youll regret coming out so rashly.
There was a gleam in both Ini and the Heavenly Gods eyes.
How amusing.
Facing both of their gazes head-on, the Demon God smirked.
Kuuuuuung-!
Ugh!
Kyaa!
Suddenly, gravityor rather, magicpressed down on me.
I instantly recognized the cause of this sensation.
Is this the pressure caused merely by the radiation of his power?
The Demon God hadnt done anything.
He had merely radiated his power, exerting pressure on my body.
It was a power that was unbelievably vast and formidable.
Dont waste your efforts. Theres no one here who would falter from such a show of force.
Quit showing off. I feel like hitting you right now.
In the next moment, the magic from Ini and the divine power from the Heavenly God erupted.
Crackle, crackle, zzizzizzizz!
Magic, power, and divinity.
The three forces clashed and rippled, seemingly warping space itself.
Its beyond comprehension.
I recalled something Instructor Pi Jin Ho once told me.
I also felt somewhat resentful towards Ini.
She said if the seal was released, shed become about ten times stronger
How is this tenfold?
It feels like its at least twenty times stronger.
And the Heavenly God seems about 1.3 times stronger than Ini.
Considering that even Ini seemed to acknowledge that the Heavenly God was more powerful than him, it must be true.
And most overpowering of all
Just how powerful is the Demon God to single-handedly withstand the combined might of both the Heavenly God and Ini? freewebn ovel.com
Seeing it firsthand, I understand.
Theres no way the Seo-yul from the original story could have defeated such a being on his own.
No matter how powerful, its unrealistic.
This is problematic.
The difference in power is just too vast.
Of course, considering my potential for growth, I might catch up someday.
No, I definitely will catch up.
But not just yet.
I need at least some time to grow.
I need to upgrade at least two of Adams Marks to a transcendent grade to stand a chance.
The manual from Shin-hyung detailing Adams Mark mentioned the effects of reaching the transcendent grade.
While the boost in combat power was astonishing and the attributes one could acquire were tremendous, the truly incredible part was something else.
A transcendent Adams Mark can be used in conjunction with another.
Overlapping use.
In other words, a fusion of two races.
This would allow me to transcend races altogether.
Once thats achieved
Ill be able to confront the Demon God.
Just as determination shone in my eyes, at that very moment
Meteor!
Following Inis dragon chant
Everyone, scatter!
The wars prelude began.
