Episode 588
588. Summary of the side story (6)
They moved with Hasyanka. Originally, I tried to bring all the Narians, but they refused, saying it was too rude, so I ended up only bringing Hasyanka.
They flew away and arrived at a place quite far from the city.
A devastated place with nothing.
He was there on the cliff.
“ah.”
Hasyanka swallows her breath without realizing it.
I don’t feel anything.
If someone who didn’t know him saw him, he would have been seen as just an ordinary person.
But an unknown presence attacked her.
“Taesan.”
Taeyeon Lee approaches and opens her mouth. Black hair flutters.
“It’s still here.”
“There’s nothing else to do.”
A soft voice rings out. Taesan’s gaze moves. Hasyanka is at the end of the gaze.
“ah.”
Hasianka almost collapsed without even realizing it.
Serene jet black eyes.
Even with just that, Hasyanka was overwhelmed. And she realized. About who the being in front of you is.
“Taesan… my lord.”
“for a moment.”
Taesan snapped his fingers. At the same time, Hasyanka noticed.
The fact that the broadcast heading to the home country was forced to end.
“It doesn’t really matter, but I don’t like being exposed to many people. “It’s enough now.”
Hasyanka barely held on to her shaking legs and bowed as politely as possible.
“A humble and small being meets the Great One.”
The being in front of her is the one who tore apart and killed the beings beyond the universe’s providence and saved the universe.
This is not just an empty word, but in the truest sense, he was the strongest being in the universe.
Hasyanka barely held on to her trembling body and kept her mouth shut. Taesan opened his mouth.
“You don’t need to ask my permission. “Unlike other transcendents, I don’t really care about such things.”
“Thank you.”
Only then did Hasyanka open her mouth. He spoke with utmost respect, still with his head down.
“The great Kang Taesan.”
Taesan Kang.
He had no special nickname like other gods.
At best, he is the savior of the universe, etc. A few people just gave it an embarrassing title.
The reason was simple.
Because Gangtaesan was Gangtaesan.
It was nothing more and nothing less. His name itself was a nickname.
“Kang Taesan.”
Hasyanka stammered. I tried my best not to tremble, but I couldn’t help the trembling voice.
“Unholy, we have invaded your territory without permission. Please apologize…”
“Do whatever you want.”
Taesan cut off Hasianka’s words.
“I have no intention of interfering with Earth. Because you have to be independent and not rely on me. But… it’s a good thing for similar people to coexist and help each other.”
Kang Taesan gave permission.
Hasianka breathed an inaudible sigh of relief.
“On the contrary, I am grateful from my side. “Even if it wasn’t, I was worried about what to do.”
“Because the development of technology was completely blocked.”
Taeyeon Lee shrugged her shoulders. To be honest, if Taishan or the Narians hadn’t come, we might not have been able to acquire the technology for several years.
“Continue to interact and help them. “That’s what I hope for.”
“As the Great One wills.”
Kang Taesan himself suggested it to her. I had no intention of refusing.
Rather, it was an honor. To come face to face with a being of that size and listen to his voice.
Ordinary transcendents had to pay a very large tribute to hear the voice even from afar. It was a tribute that was burdensome even to the Narians.
Moreover, it was impossible to make any suggestions to them, no matter how much tribute there was. This was only possible through the whim of the transcendent.
There was no honor like this for her. She was out of breath at the thought of going back to her hometown and bragging about it.
But her luck didn’t end there.
Taesan, who was looking down at Hasianka, opened his mouth.
“Still, from your perspective, it’s help without compensation.”
“It doesn’t matter. Great Kang Taesan. If you wish, we are all willing to comply.”
“no. That’s why I don’t feel at peace. “I should at least repay you.”
“yes?”
Hasyanka’s head lifted up without realizing it at the unexpected words.
Dark, dark eyes were looking down at her. Those eyes were looking through everything.
“You want something from me, right?”
“….”
“Say as much as you want. “I don’t care.”
Permission was granted.
Hasyanka swallowed. She told Taesan the wish she had in her heart.
“The great Kang Taesan. “Will you allow me to witness your power with my own eyes?”
The one who saved the universe.
One who is clearly above the transcendents.
What power does he have?
Hasyanka was so curious about it that she went crazy. Taesan nodded to her wish.
“If you want it.”

The spaceship that brought the Narians leaps into space. The main gun opens and a huge force begins to converge there.
“Wow.”
Amelia, who was watching from Earth, clicks her tongue.
“If I hit that one, I’d go for the goal.”
“Not just going to the goal, but the entire solar system will be torn apart? “It gives me goosebumps.”
[This is a collection of all the technologies we have.]
Hasyanka’s voice rings out from inside the spaceship.
[It is the strongest weapon built by our civilization that can damage even immortals if it hits directly.]
The main cannon was aimed at Taesan, who was a little distance away from the spaceship.
[It is also a weapon that not even we can control.]
The power contained within that weapon could not be blocked by any of the Narians’ defense techniques.
Hasyanka secretly stole something that was originally completely sealed.
[O great one. Then…]
“Because I understand.”
Taesan nodded.
“Shoot.”
[Thank you.]
Kiiiiing!
The main gun works.
Numerous atoms combine to create destructive power beyond recognition. Even people who are doing their own thing on Earth look up into space without realizing it.
What gathers there is the energy of a star exploding.
A destructive power that will reduce an entire area of several light years to ashes.
“You can reach that far with just one technique.”
Taesan mutters. It was a destructive force that literally left scars on the universe.
If Taishan does not stop it, not only the Earth but also Hasyanka will disappear without a trace. Hasyanka closed her eyes.
[Then please.]
The main gun fires.
“stop.”
Taesan said.
And the energy stopped.
[…Huh?]
Hasyanka was embarrassed. What she fired was extremely unsafe. Once launched, it cannot be stopped or controlled.
Something like that stopped in the middle of space.
Taesan slowly approached the energy. It shook as if it might explode at any moment, but was completely blocked and controlled by an intangible force.
“The destructive power is certain.”
Taesan stretched out his hand and grabbed the energy.
“That’s it.”
And that was the end.
The energy that could turn entire light years into ashes disappeared without a trace.
Simple power without class was nothing more than a toy.
[….]
“Okay?”
Taesan lightly shook his hands.
* * *
Kiiiiing!
The spaceship leaves Earth.
It won’t be long before Hasianka will return. With countless engineers and technologies that will enrich the Earth.
Taesan watched the scene behind him.
“I managed to kill time.”
I vaguely knew about the Narians, but this was my first time seeing them in person.
The technology of the universe’s most powerful civilization and their individual strength were stimulating in their own way.
But that was it.
It didn’t touch Taesan any more than that.
Taesan looked away. He could see the developing city in his eyes.
As we gain technology from the Narians, the Earth will develop faster and faster.
We will go beyond regaining our past and reach a greater realm.
It would be quite fun to watch that.
But that was all.
It wasn’t something that shook Taesan’s emotions.
[You look free.]
A voice rang out.
Taesan turned his head.
He had huge horns on his head.
The red pupils were like those of a reptile, and black aura flowed through its entire body.
“Baal.”
The only remaining entity in the universe that is close to the God of God. A traitor who betrayed his people.
[It has become a respect. You are stronger and higher than me.]
“I can’t help it because it’s stuck in my mouth.”
[In that case. The respect you receive from someone like you is quite precious.]
Great devil. Baal chuckled. Taesan turned his gaze again and looked at the city.
“What are you doing here?”
[It’s slowly getting sorted out now.]
Baal said lazily.
[The cleaning of the troublesome things has been completed. I feel like I have quite a bit of free time.]
“I guess you were quite busy.”
[But you are quite bored.]
Taesan did not answer. Baal opened his mouth as if he understood.
[You have lived a more intense life than anyone else. Well, there is no one in this world who has given more to the struggle than you. I guess there is no one other than the god of struggle.]
In my past life, I gave everything to survive and become strong. Originally, he had accumulated achievements that would have made him a god of some sort.
The same goes for this life. In Alone Mode, Taesan did his best to save the Earth. I have regained skills from my past life that had almost impossible acquisition conditions, and have even acquired skills that are even higher than those.
If Taesan had not been contaminated by the old gods, he could have possibly become a transcendental person with three or more divine names.
He fought and fought and ran forward with all his might.
In the end, the goal was achieved.
Taishan was at peace.
But paradoxically, after achieving peace, he was in a state of not knowing what to do. Since I had devoted my whole life to struggle, peace was very unfamiliar to me.
[The Narians may have been irritating in their own way, but they are mortal beings. It means nothing to you.]
“What’s going on?”
Taesan asked again. Baal said with a soft smile on his face.
[Aren’t you thinking of gaining some vitality in your free daily life? Even if it has no meaning, it will still be fun.]
“What are you talking about?”
[The demon is calling you. Taesan.]
Baal’s voice rang out.
