Chapter 278: He is… – 1

#1

DRRRRR!!

A red sun exploded from the ground. It was so bright and dazzling. Even the atmosphere breathlessly bowed to the sacred bombardment of the sun that appeared on the ground.

“Go!”

Powww! Ahhhhhhh !!!

It was the countless red rays that colored all the space in red. The dozens and hundreds of red lines that extended out of the stem toward all sides indiscriminately rained towards the ground.

Piriririt!!!!

The beam that stretched out unstoppably was so cruel that it was efficient. Every one of them was moving in search of enemies. Incredibly, all of the hundreds of super-monster monsters covering the ground were captured. All that covered the edge of the horizon became the prey of red rays.

Even Ruler, for a moment, forgot about the power of his domination, it was a beautiful explosion… that was the slayer itself.

And the only thing left after the brilliant explosion of the red sun was a huge chunk of meat that had lost the light of life.

Ku-kung … Qua-a-ah!

Even the ones flying leisurely while occupying the sky fell to the ground one by one.

Dead bodies began to accumulate on the ground already covered with monsters. A mountain of corpses was then formed and Jaehwang, the culprit behind this massacre, stood at its highest point.

“Hoo-woo …”

Jaehwang exhaled a deep breath to hide his turbulent mind.

“I feel it.”

He felt the Ruler’s fear.

The purpose of Jaehwang was not simply to kill the monsters. His purpose was to counter the attack that was made by Ruler himself to him.

He tried to see if Ruler’s fear would also affect the monsters’ state of mind.

He aimed to shake their divinity.

“Amazing!” Goongi was extremely excited, but Jaehwang couldn’t afford to worry about it. This was because a new letter was being engraved on the myth list in the status window.

God of Massacre (SS level)

New Master of Goongi (S level)

Bow master (S grade)

Judge (S)

Master of Martial Arts House (Class A)

It was a new myth.

He gained the name based on being a god of genocide. It didn’t just end with a few lines of text in the status window. As the direction of the myth became specialized as a complete battle, the nature of his identity began to change.

Whoo …

The wind rushing around Jaehwang began to blow. The beginning was the giant monsters that fell on the ground. The wind that started from them gathered towards Jaehwang. It’s like a grim winner who would take everything from the loser. The entirety of the losing side was the winner’s booty.

The essence of the mana that has been shattered and scattered by Jaehwang’s attack had their souls absorbed by Jaehwang. And all of those things filled Jaehwang’s body, and Yeoui Yonghyeolgong consumed it.

Wriggle … Wriggle …

The aura of the hemolysis technique continued to increase in size, however, it was quickly reaching its limit. There were too many monsters that collapsed. Then, the hemolysis technique started to make a lot of changes. It expanded explosively as if it were what it was supposed to be and at some point, it disappeared with a “sh.” Jaehwang was also surprised at this time. Because it always kept its place, its disappearance was a surprise, however, the hemolysis technique did not disappear.

He could feel the energy of the hemolysis technique in his whole body. It felt as if his whole body was immersed in it.

“Great”

Jaehwang, who lightly expressed his impression on the fullness of his whole body, raised his eye.

Super giant monsters slowly appeared over the horizon. Among them were those that showed a different level of presence than the previous ones. However, his divinity level, which sank to the bottom, was steadily rising.

His confidence rose…

He jumped over a wall and even got a little enlightenment in his hands.

He wanted to test this. If this was…

Maybe it was possible, it could be a clue to end all of this.

But…

“No.” Jaehwang shook his head.

Now, he knew too little to experiment with the barely stranded ones. He could’ve turned this into his edge

“Up to this point only…” Jaehwang shook it out of his head.

Frankly, he did want to experiment more. Right now, he felt like anything was possible. Was this a feeling of an absolute? He felt like he could end it all and even defeat the Ruler, but he must stop.

Only amateurs would continue to battle based on their current feelings. Now was the time to slowly chew what he had obtained and make it his own.

It was said that one was to know about themselves and their enemies, they could never be defeated. It’s stupid to rush to a battle without even knowing oneself.

“Go.”

“What? No way, now?” Jaehwang’s words, Goongi was astonished.

Even the Ruler of the Dark Earth was wary of Jaehwang.

Now, maybe he could finish all of this.

However, Jaehwang wanted to step back.

“Okay. Let’s step back.

“Yup.”

The voice of Goongi was shaking. Every word coming from Jaehwang felt absolutely binding and cannot be resisted. She was feeling it already. He jumped to one dimension again and now, he was on the same level as her.

The status and myth that she completed over thousands of years were immediately overtaken by him.

Whoooosh

Just saying that it’s cold here at a hill of pure white was an understatement. Only snow and ice were visible.

The continent of ice, which did not belong to any other country on the planet, was crawling with monsters.

Jaehwang and Goongi went off the gate through a wind that seemed to freeze everything. This cold was not a hindrance to two beings who have become gods beyond the superhuman class.

As it occupied 90% of the Earth’s ice, only snow and ice were visible no matter how much they moved. Even though the traces of indigenous penguins and monsters seemed to be evidence that life could live, they did not show whether they hated this cold. Of course, if they did, no one would find it.

“Around here seems suitable.”

Jaehwang took out a transmitter from his infinity storage and put it on ice, then, he turned on the switch. All they had to do was wait, and the Atlas, which was waiting in the vicinity, would detect the signal and fly towards them. He was bored to wait and tried to take some snacks and eat them, but after chewing a couple of times, he threw them away. It didn’t taste like anything as it was frozen.

“Dark Earth wasn’t that cold,” said Goongi.

“I don’t know. Maybe Ruler did something…”

“Oh, it ‘s so cold,” Goongi deliberately said and jumped into Jaehwang’s arms.

Then Jaehwang smiled and put Goongi in his arms. It was true that both of them came too far to be under the influence of the cold, but they both felt the heart of Goongi who did not want to forget this small pleasure. They have been so accustomed to each other for having spent a long time together.

But rather, it made them more excited.

“Well, I think you’re getting a little big,” Goongi said, digging into the arms of Jaehwang.

As she said, Jaehwang was growing. Previously, the height of Goongi was about 180 centimeters and Jaehwang was about 187 centimeters but now, Jaehwang had grown to be slightly less than 2 m. His body became bigger too.

“Am I?”

The reason was roughly guessed. This was one of the changes made by the Hemolysis technique. It might seem that he suffered from eccentric bone metastasis, but it was a much higher level of change.

If the original vertebral metamorphosis was a change to a more perfect body, it would be the right to say that his body had changed to suit his soul. Having talked about this and that, a moment later, a giant quadcopter appeared over the horizon.

However, it did fly to the vicinity of Jaehwang, but it couldn’t land.

The wind was not so strong, but the sky, the earth, was entirely white.

As the clouds covered the sunlight, there were no shadows to give contrast to the ground. This was a phenomenon called flat light. Not only that, but the watch was not very good due to the wind that was being driven but at this point, the pilot would be unable to determine where to land with the naked eye.

No matter how modern an aircraft was, landing under these worst conditions depends entirely on the pilot’s ability. Jaehwang, looking at the Atlas a few times orbiting the air, said with a low sigh,

“Please just open the hatch, we will go in ourselves.”

“Huh? Okay! Got it.”

At the end of Jaehwang’s words, the pilot immediately answered, and after a while, the hatch on the back of Atlas slowly began to open. With the help of Goongi, he entered the interior of Atlas. Irumi came in a hurry as he entered.

Goongi remained hidden inside of Jaehwang. The most comfortable place for her was Jaehwang.

“Any issues while you were waiting?” When asked by Jaehwang, Irumi waved her head.

The position seems to have changed. Jaehwang was the one who went to the dangerous Dark Earth and they only waited for what they did.

“There was nothing wrong. Is your body okay though? ”

He entered with armor made of 9-tier monster’s scales but now, he had a hole in his chest that seemed to have melted. The fact that the armor of Jaehwang, which was not buried in his body, melted in a certain battle, meant that the battle was not as difficult as it seemed.

“Well… whoo”

Following the eyes of Irumi, Jaehwang, who looked at the armor sighed. He didn’t think about it, but the equipment was severely damaged.

“More than that, in Ruler’s words, something seems to have happened at the Dark Earth Gate…”

Irumi’s expression was a little hard at the words of Jaehwang. The Dark Earth’s gate happened, unfortunately, shortly after Jaehwang entered the Dark Earth.

If he said it now, he would go on a continual basis to rectify the situation.

“Monsters appeared all over the world, but fortunately most of them were repelled.”

“Is that so, I’m glad. ”

Something unclear was seen in her voice, but Jaehwang nodded.

He needed to absorb the enlightenment that he had obtained in the Dark Earth. “Then, I ‘ll take a break.”

Irumi smiled. “Sure, would you need anything?”

“Fine.”

Inside the Atlas, there was a separate space for Jaehwang to rest. As Jaehwang disappeared, an agent approached Irumi and said quietly,

“Can I not tell you that?”

“Silence”

Cool energy flowed through her face.

Most of the “monsters” that came here were now repelled, however, Irumi wished that he would rest now even if Jaehwang would have some trouble with this later. She thought that it was the price that the world had to pay because they ignored the words Jaehwang.

“It should never enter Jaehwang ‘s ear.”

“I will be careful.”

“I’m going back.”

“Oh, the maintenance team leader said that a long flight in Antarctica could cause the rotor part of the Atlas to freeze or the electrical part to cause some trouble.”

“Well, is that so?” Irumi nodded.

She was also a little worried about this issue.

No matter how much one uses mana engines to not worry about refueling like in the past, machines were something that needed constant maintenance. In particular, this Atlas was Jaehwang’s foot.

“I arranged for the airport nearest to you a little while ago.”

“Good job. You must have secured it beforehand, right? ”

“Of course.”

“Good. I will stop there and cross the Pacific Ocean shortly after the maintenance.”
