At the moment when I faced Bright Evil and it revealed its hostility towards me and attacked, I thought:
‘This isn’t good.’
One of the Great Evils, Bright Evil.
It’s not an entity like Daji, where I could completely dominate.
Even with perfect preparation and calling in others to help, the win rate wasn’t high.
In other words, it’s an opponent I could never defeat alone.
‘I didn’t think I’d actually meet it.’
「Eternal Existence (S+)」 and 「Sword Demon (S+)」 reacted.
…Let’s move calmly.
As I calmly observed my surroundings, the stars within me began to rotate.The star’s name was Shape.
Saa──.
Something encroached around me and appeared.
Creak.
A sound that ordinary hearing couldn’t detect reached me. As infinite power surged within me, my body began to overload.
My body screamed in agony. I had to find a way to turn this into a short-term battle by any means.
‘My condition is the worst.’
My current physical state wasn’t good.
I needed to secure a retreat route. The problem was that the opponent was wary of the power of the Boundary.
‘Luckily, there are no subordinates.’
This meant that Bright Evil appeared alone.
In such cases, there were usually two possibilities. Either the remaining subordinates weren’t strong, or Bright Evil was confident in its own power.
However, Bright Evil must have already thought something unusual had occurred in Pyongyang.
If it were Bright Evil, it would have likely taken some measures. Spreading its subordinates widely, perhaps using them like a Heavenly Web.
I took a stance.
Gripping the Black Heavenly Demon Sword.
‘I’ll make the first move.’
The only advantage I have against Bright Evil right now was one thing.
Instantaneous explosive power. On the other hand, Rasputin was consistently strong. He also possessed explosive power. Among the Great Evils, he is one of the most troublesome opponents. ŔàΝȱ𝐛Ёs
“This is quite dangerous.”
Bright Evil’s eyes changed. The eyes, previously hidden behind a smile, opened.
Eyes glowing with an ominous red light.
“Oh, God. Here is an ignorant and foolish being. Allow me to use your power to guide them.”
A reverse cross appeared behind Rasputin, and light exploded. It was a dark light.
A light of darkness that consumed the pure white.
“But you, you’re incredibly arrogant, aren’t you? Do you think you’ve become something just because you caught Dalgi?”
Rasputin took a step forward.
“Anyway, that wench was the weakest among us.”
“You talk too much. Why is that? Are you scared?”
“Hah.”
Rasputin let out a hollow laugh and then laughed ferociously.
“Let me see if you’re someone worthy of making such remarks!!”
At Rasputin’s words, the dark light surged.
Whiiiing!
The star within me rotated. Draw. Black Heaven was drawn like a flash, and black flames descended upon it.
Divine Terror Fire.
Black flames poured out. The flames wrapped around the world, forming a shape. The form of a Black Flame Dragon clashed with the light engulfed in darkness.
─────!!
A shockwave that erased even sound spread in all directions.
The immense aftermath of power spread out, destroying everything around it indiscriminately. This is how battles between transcendents usually go. Beings that transform the landscape entirely.
“Kehuk.”
[「Eyes of Seven Colors (?)」observe the opponent.]
I saw Rasputin. Half of his body was shattered, glaring at me with one remaining eye.
In this fight, I had the upper hand. At least outwardly, I appeared intact.
But that didn’t mean it’s a good thing.
‘The power of Shape is too strong…!’
Gulp.
I poured out all my strength at once. That’s how I had fought until now. Rather than a long-term battle, a short-term one. Even if the opponent took my bones, I’d take theirs.
This was possible because of the absolute external martial art, Black God Martial Arts.
However, the backlash from pouring out my power all at once just now twisted all the energy channels in my body.
Blood surged from within.
But there was no time to leisurely cough or swallow the blood. I gritted my teeth and quickly moved my body.
“Your, your power… is, truly… incredible.”
A chilling voice echoed.
“You, are dangerous.”
Half of Rasputin’s body had flown off.
…It had flown off. But now his body was engulfed in black power.
[At merely 20 years of age, to possess such power is beyond comprehension. Your power, which denies everything, is bizarre. Even I can’t understand it.]
His words continued, though intermittently, due to the wounds.
It meant that he was at least healed enough to speak.
[You must die. You are the most dangerous opponent to our, no, to my great cause.]
Killing intent exploded.
A chill ran down my spine.
The demon, Rasputin, unleashed all his power, and the force he exhaled began to distort the laws of the world.
[You must die here and now!!]
The light engulfed by darkness was radiating in all directions.
Those rays of light, thin as flashes, shot through the air and then curved towards me like a bombardment.
-Master!! Be careful!!
At Black Heaven’s warning, I spun the star within my body.
Ka-ga-ga-gak─!
The creaking of my body grew more intense. At the same time, everything within a 2-meter radius around me began to differentiate.
‘…Boundary!’
The power of the Boundary distinguished everything. Before the hundreds of black flashes could reach me, they all vanished.
[What?!]
Those flashes were redirected towards Rasputin.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-gwang!
The bombardment rippled in all directions. It bought me some time, but the price was severe.
The cost of that time was my trembling body.
‘Even the power of the Boundary… the strain is…!’
My body creaked.
I contemplated, comparing what I currently had at my disposal.
‘Infinite Vitality (S) is helping me endure, but it’s dangerous.’
I awakened the dragon blood lying dormant within my body.
The power I had saved for facing the Apostle during the invasion of the Nazi Empire needed to be unleashed.
Thump.
Scales rose across my entire body, and my vision took on a peculiar sensation.
I channeled the power of magic into the Conceptual Stat Refinement. A golden light surged.
Dragon Word Activation.
[Here and now…!]
“That power is too precious to be used here.”
A quiet voice stopped me.
I stared blankly at one spot.
“Se… Seo-ha, are you okay!?”
A worried voice accompanied the girl with sky-blue hair who embraced me.
“There are no visible injuries. Instead, you’ve cornered the opponent. Despite its grotesque appearance, that thing hates transforming into a demon…”
The young man with long hair looked at me.
Though he was in the mountains, he coolly turned away in a formal suit.
“What a monstrous being. You did well. From here on, I’ll take care of it.”
[…Damn wizard. Why have you come this far?]
“Have you even given up on the pretense of honorifics? Well, I didn’t expect you to keep it up anyway.”
The Thousand Sorcerer raised his staff. A massive diamond the size of a saint’s face hovered at the end of the long, pure white rod.
“Watch closely. This is how transcendents fight.”
[You talk too much, old man!!]
At Rasputin’s words, Kim Seo-hyun, who was holding me, gritted her teeth and swiftly dashed backward. The speed was impressive.
The Thousand Sorcerer and Rasputin collided. Light flashed.
As light and darkness clashed, filling the sky, the surrounding terrain began to change.
Sweltering.
A sense of foreboding wrapped around my entire body.
‘What is this?’
If it was the Thousand Sorcerer, it should be safe. While it might be difficult for him to kill Rasputin, it would be just as difficult for Rasputin to kill the Thousand Sorcerer.
A feeling of foreboding shouldn’t be there…
I looked down with a blank expression at the place where the ruins had collapsed.
The lingering power of the Boundary in the ruins began to distort the surroundings due to the aftermath of the battle.
“…Ah, no.”
I spoke in horror.
“Why, what’s wrong, Seo-ha?”
“We, we need to escape from here immediately…”
But my warning was too late.
The Boundary that made up the ruins was exposed to all sorts of powers and began to run wild. It started to distort everything around it, sucking in the surrounding space like a black hole.
“What the…! Everyone, be careful! We’re getting sucked in!”
With the Thousand Sorcerer’s scream, we were swallowed by the power of the Boundary.
As soon as I regained consciousness, I immediately stood up. What I saw was an entire forest.
And what I felt was mana and spirit energy more abundant than in the modern world.
…Where on earth have we been thrown?
-Is the power of the Boundary affecting even places like this?
‘What about Rasputin and the Thousand Sorcerer?’
-I don’t know. They were quite far apart… Rasputin might have escaped, but since he was aiming for you, be extremely cautious.
‘I should.’
With a sigh, I looked at Kim Seo-hyun, who was clinging to me.
Kim Seo-hyun seemed to have lost consciousness and was sound asleep.
The fortunate thing was that Kim Seo-hyun was nearby.
Even so, I shouldn’t lower my guard since Rasputin might be close.
‘This is really bad.’
I took a deep breath and adjusted my body with Black God Martial Arts.
If I were to meet Rasputin again here, it would be truly dangerous.
Even though it was difficult to move, I had to move.
Just as I was about to start moving with Kim Seo-hyun on my back, Eternal Heaven blocked our way.
-…Wait, wait a moment.
‘What is it?’
Eternal Heaven stopped us with a blank expression.
-Heu, Black Heaven. Don’t you feel something strange?
-It’s a forest filled with spirit energy. Perhaps this is what the Amazon of Earth would be like…
-What a carefree comment!
Eternal Heaven said in exasperation.
-Don’t you remember that mountain?
Eternal Heaven pointed at a mountain. I looked at the mountain she pointed at.
A mountain filled with overwhelming spirit energy and mana. It felt like a place where, if Eternal Heaven hadn’t accepted the energy of defying heaven and trained there, she would have reached the highest level.
-That’s the mountain where I used to live before Heavenly Demon arrived!!
At Eternal Heaven’s words, I had a blank expression.
That’s right.
The power of the Boundary had sent me, no, us, to the place where Heavenly Demon used to be.
