This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Pwak Pwah Pwah Pwah Pwah-!A blue aura rages.
"This power! Give it back!" The Star Piece.
Dozens of Outer God Jewels were forcibly implanted in Sung Il-Hwan's body. From there, the mana of the outer universe stretched out and was condensed into two daggers that exploded in his hands.
[How dare–!]
FWOOOM!
A blue ray of light, emanating from the eyes of the enraged god, split the wall in half.
[An insignificant mortal!]
BAAAM!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The chapel began to collapse under the power of the god who was extremely angry. However, the chapel was already meaningless. The 'Debuff: Rules of the Temple of Cartenon', which had already dominated the chapel, had been broken.
Whoop!
Finally, the coercive power that was strangling own Suho's magical power disappeared.
"Good." Suho's eyes shone eerily. That gaze intersected in the air with that of Sung Il-Hwan, who was blocking the statue from above. Sung Il-Hwan was talking to Suho with his eyes.
'Now, let's see what you got.'
How much he has grown so far! Even though it happened suddenly, Sung Il-Hwan noticed quite a few things as soon as he saw Suho. How could he not? He was Sung Jin-Woo's father, and Sung Jin-Woo was another father who raised a son he was more proud of than anyone else.
He was a warrior that was fighting out there to protect his son in a place where no one knew about.
Therefore... 'I don't need any explanation.' It was already clear in Sung Il-Hwan's eyes. 'Show me your skills.' Beneath Suho's feet, the great shadow connected to the deep darkness. 'How deep is your darkness!' How much the grandson, who he had always thought of as a child, had grown!
"Arise!" Suho's order has been given.
Whoaaaagh!
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
At that compulsory order, new shadow soldiers rose from the corpses of the foreign believers who had melted in the rays of the god.
[Shadow Fanatic Lv.1]
[Shadow Fanatic Lv.1]
[Shadow Fanatic Lv.1]
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Kyaaaaaaaa!
The foreign believers who came back from the dead were literally demons themselves. From them, fierce hatred for the false god, who used and betrayed their blind faith during their lifetime, erupted.
"All troops, charge!"
WUAAAAAAA!
At the command of Suho, the Shadow Legion roared in unison and stretched out toward the statue of Itarim.
[The stats of shadow soldiers fighting in the shadow of the caster increase by 50%.]
The monarch's realm amplified its wrathful power.
[Ha ha ha ha! You detestable Outer God! I'll crush you!]
Kim Chul, who was more enthusiastic than anyone else in his lifetime, now took the lead before anyone else and rushed to the statue of Itarim.
[You're back, Iron!]
Beru was delighted and commanded the battlefield from above –Kim Chul– Iron's head.
Quarreung!
The giant feet of the statue crushed the shadow soldiers mercilessly.
[Harmakan uses 'Skill: Thorn of Pain'.]
[Harmakan uses 'Skill: Damage Amplification'.]
Pwak Pwak!
Suho showed all his strength.
[Use 'Skill: Rigid Body Art'.]
['Skill: Giant's Armor' is used.]
[The spiritual body of 'Pet: Gray' is strengthened in the body of the priest.]
[Use 'Skill: Grassland Wind'.]
[Movement speed temporarily increases by 30%.]
[Attack speed temporarily increases by 30%.]
Shhhuunk!
As Suho grew in size, his silver hair fluttered like a lion's mane.
"He..." Sung Il-Hwan couldn't help but be a little embarrassed at Suho's changed appearance. When did my tiny grandson grow up like that... Would you have changed like a fly?
[Use 'Skill: Storm Slash'.]
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
However, as much as its appearance, the storm of blades from Suho's sword attacked the statue with tremendous power.
"Ahh!!"
"Run away!"
When the chapel collapsed, the foreign believers scattered in a panic. The demons outside the chapel were also perplexed. It was then.
[My servants! Fight!]
Hwaaak!
Their expressions suddenly changed by the statue's roar. They had long since lost their original selves due to being contaminated by the divinity of Itarim, and God's command was absolute to them, the instilled faith remaining.
They jumped back into the collapsing building with blue ghostly eyes and attacked Suho's army. However, the hunters who were purely using the black market without knowing anything were different.
"W-what is that?!"
"A moving stone statue!"
The Hunters suddenly widened their eyes at the appearance of a huge statue of God that appeared outside as the chapel building collapsed.
Despite coming here to evade taxes, they were still active hunters. Regardless of who started first, they instinctively raised all their magic power and prepared themselves for battle.
However...
Flash!
"!!!"
The Stardust necklace hanging around their necks suddenly reacted to the presence of the statue and emitted blue light. The light was weak compared to the Star Pieces, but it was enough.
"Ouch?!"
"!!!"
"Huh, why is the necklace–!"
Stardust necklaces around their necks held their bodies in the air like shackles. As if an evil spirit had possessed them.
"What, what is this—!"
"Kek kek!"
The hunters struggled in the air, exuding strange energy, struggling to remove the strangling necklace. At the same time
BOOM!
"!!!"
Red filled the scene. From the Hunter's eyes bloody tears fell as he saw a large hole in the center of his body. Hwang Dong-Soo indifferently pulled out his fist that pierced the insides of the hunter and shook off the blood.
Thud.
He put his palms together with a reverent expression as he watched the fleetingly dying and crumbling corpse in front of him.
"I offer a sacrifice to the Great God."
Suaaa
At that moment, the magic power remaining in the dead Hunter's body was scattered like light powder. And that power became a 'sacrificial offering' that was absorbed into the statue of Itarim.
"What the–!!" The hunters who witnessed the shocking sight struggled to tear off the necklace with all their might.
Dduduk!
"No.. no no no No No NO–!"
BOOM!
"...I offer you a sacrifice."
Another offering was added.
Unlike Sung Il-Hwan, Hwang Dong-Soo has already been completely contaminated by Itarim's divinity. He glared at the non-believers, Sung Suho and Sung Il-Hwan, who were engaged in a fierce battle with the statue of Itarim with blue ghostly eyes.
"Tch, tch. How dare these impious bastards!"
He killed all the hunters in front of his eyes with the most frenzied momentum, and jumped into the battlefield to protect the statue.
Flash!
Just like Sung Il-Hwan, blue energy radiated from his body, but suddenly–
Ching!
"I guess I haven't finished the job yet."
Hwang Dong-Soo glared at Sung Il-Hwan, a gray-haired old man blocking his way, and gnashed his teeth.
"Sung Il-Hwan!"
"Don't interfere with what my grandson is doing, why don't we, old men, fight instead?"
"Don't be so cocky with me! I was just caught off guard earlier!"
"Oh?"
At the words of Hwang Dong-Soo who shouted in anger, Sung Il-Hwan smiled faintly.
"Do you really think so?"
There was no further conversation from that point on because Hwang Dong-Soo started attacking him with all his might.
Bang!
An S-rank villain who became the high priest of Itarim, and an S-rank hunter who escaped from the false god by his own will. As the powers of the two collided, the outer universe's magic tore through the air.
***
[Little Lord! Every time people die, the power of the statue keeps getting stronger!]
As Beru said, the statue of Itarim was absorbing the power of foreign believers and hunters wearing Stardust necklaces when they died. Even the scratches that had been cracked by the attack of the shadow army were recovering in an instant.
'This will never end!'
Suho was calmly examining the situation even while dealing with Itarim's personal statue. One thing was certain. That this gigantic new statue fighting now is not the real Itarim. 'Because there's no way my father would have allowed an Itarim to come to Earth.' So, in the end, this guy is just a moving stone statue with some of the Itarim's power.
'At most, it's just an alter ego like Arsha. And the fuel that moves the clone body is that blue magic power!'
Stand up!
Suho maximized his senses. Then, in his field of vision, the magic of the dead flowed into the statue of Itarim from all directions. And at the end of all that flow–
"Found it!"
Suho, who was attacking the idol, suddenly turned and soared upward.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
[!!!]
Suho, who ran vertically after stepping on the statue's huge body, was aiming for the statue's neck! There was a large necklace carved there, which seemed to be just an ordinary decoration, but the energy of the dead was gathering right there.
Geeeeing-!
The agitated statue shouted at Hwang Dong-Soo, emitting blue rays to block Suho.
[High priest! Stop him!]
However, Hwang Dong-Soo was not in a situation where he could obey that solemn order.
Clash!
Bang! Bang!
Sung Il-Hwan pressed down Hwang Dong-Soo with his brutal force.
"Keuk-!"
Eventually, blood fell from Hwang Dong-Soo's mouth. He really hated to admit it, but now it was purely factual. Sung Il-Hwan. This gray-haired old man, who was to become the second High Priest after himself, 'He is strong!' Overwhelming too! 'Why the hell is that when you are just the same as I am?! '
Despite being pushed helplessly by Sung Il-Hwan's power, Hwang Dong-Soo gritted his teeth in resentment. What the hell is the difference between him and the old man?
"Both of us are S-rank, and the number of Outer God Jewels embedded in our bodies is the same! So why is there such a difference!?"
"You're asking the obvious." Sung Il-Hwan responded calmly as he pushed Hwang Dong-Soo, whose mood was worsening.
"It's the difference between the bowls."
"What is that...Are you talking nonsense!?" To Hwang Dong-Soo, who does not remember his previous life, these words can only be dismissed as nonsense. However, from Sung Il-Hwan's point of view, there was no other answer as simple as this. Hwang Dong-Soo, was once an S-rank hunter only to then become the noble souls who fought to protect the world as a soldier for his son Sung Jin-woo.
However, the mission in his past life given to Sung Il-Hwan was different.
The moment Sung Il-Hwan's fist was raised, the magical power of the outer universe was wrapped around it. Hwang Dong-Soo's eyes widened as if tearing at that formidable power.
Flash!
Primordial light.
'Fragments of Luminescence' that are now called 'Rulers'. At one time, they entrusted their powers to Sung Il-Hwan to stop the Shadow Monarch from descending. As time passed, circumstances changed, and new instructions were issued.
[Protect the Shadow Monarch.]
He was the Greatest Fragment of Brilliant Light, strongest among all Rulers and at the same time, the darkest King among Monarchs. It was absolutely impossible at the level of 'national level hunters to achieve such a goal. In order to stop him and protect him...
"How much power do you think it would have taken?"
"!!!"
With those words, Sung Il-Hwan's fist slammed into Hwang Dong-Soo. Yes. Sung Il-Hwan. With only one thought to protect his son, he fought a lonely fight, toiling himself until his body was crumbling. He was the most brilliant Hunter of all. The soul vessel of Sung Il-Hwan, who survived that noble and terrible end.
"And yet I'm still weak compared to before." Outer cosmic magic? Outer God Jewel? Even with just this little effort, his bowl wasn't even half full!
"!!!"
"Die and come back."
That was the last memory Hwang Dong-Soo remembered.
