Episode 112. Advent of
the Demon God (2) That wasn’t the only reason Evan was able to react to Yuma and reveal his consciousness.
When Evan’s ego awakened, a new white radiance formed in his eyes, which were stained with purple demon eyes.
“Great!”
A scream that was hard to tell whether it was Evan’s or Amanjo’s continued.
During the fierce confrontation between the two selves, the boy’s body contorted grotesquely while having seizures.
Yuma couldn’t help but be surprised to see the white light in Amanzo’s eyes. It’s not magic or aura, it’s literally ‘light’ itself.
It was the power of Geil.
Soon, Amanjo or Evan began to rise slowly into the air, emitting brilliance from all over his body. It was so blinding that I couldn’t even look at it properly.
– This one! iced coffee! I understand now. Zeil’s apostle passed you by. right?
These were the words that Lot, the high priest of the Zeil Church, said after seeing Evan in Joachim in the past.
At that time, I didn’t know who the ‘Apostle of Zeil’ was, but during the trip, Yuma found out that he was the archmage Rizol.
As the high priest of the Zeil Church, Lot immediately recognized the power of Lisol buried in Evan.
When he first came to Yuma, he was in a staggered body due to malnutrition, but Evan was a boneless man whose potential was not inferior to Yuma or Malone.
-Who did you learn martial arts from?
Did you fight against Baron Secron’s knights and survive?
Seeing Evan, who had survived Yoheim and came to the top of Puang, Yuma asked that. It was after I felt my pulse and felt an incomprehensibly high potential.
-Yes I learned it from a guy who stopped by the village for a while.
The person who taught Evan about martial arts was Gilles Apostle Rizol.
So far, the mysterious archmage has not revealed itself.
And Yuma had a hunch that he wouldn’t appear until the end of this war.
In the first place, Risol couldn’t move properly due to the current Hwa’s influence.
Just before leaving to secure key points such as Seruka Yunin Oasis and Dempir, Yuma realized that there was a problem with Rizol and his secret society Alpenter Zeilgyo.
From the moment Yuma summoned Amula in the void dimension opened by Rugal, their faces were grotesquely distorted and their powers were lost.
All those related to Zeil, the god of light, were harmed by Hwa who reacted to Amulla.
Theron also told Yuma that ‘Alpenter doesn’t have the power to put in this job’.
‘Could it be that Rizol predicted this would happen and planted Geil’s energy in Evan from the beginning?’
Looking back, it was strange that Evan came to him.
At the time, he was just making a name for himself throughout the empire as a ‘commoner’s hero’, so it was only assumed that an unlucky boy had come to seek help.
But, of course, the boy was the owner of a tremendous boneless bone, and in the end, in extreme despair, his body and soul were robbed by the devil, and he started a war… And now, he was
led by Yuma and Natalie to manifest the power of light.
Perhaps, from the beginning, Rizol tried to use Evan to control Amanjo.
In an instant, such a thought passed through Yuma’s mind. If it was a transcendent who could not understand the inside, it seemed that it could be enough.
But I didn’t have much time to think. When Evan, who seemed to rise to the heart, suddenly lost his light and fell, Amanjo’s self was revealed again.
“Zile! this disgusting! Cuck!”
In Amanzo’s eyes, a purple demon’s eye and a white radiance formed alternately. Every time that happened, tearing screams continued.
The attack started when the magic eye was revealed, and stopped when the light was revealed. While the extremely unstable state lasted, Yuma stopped thinking.
Whether this was Rizol’s ruse or just the result of Evan’s guilt, an opportunity arose.
Amanzo was just struggling like a beast caught in a trap.
Even the demon’s overwhelming swordsmanship, which threatened his life at every moment, was weakened.
If not now, the opportunity to destroy Amanzo’s heart would never come again.
“Take care of Natalie!”
If it was Amanzo now, Natalie alone was able to compete with her to some extent. I didn’t know if it was even possible to crush him. Amanjo, who had been exposed to Evan’s consciousness, was that weak.
However, the regenerative ability to draw power from the black heart and spread it was still there. The abdomen that Ascalon penetrated had already been regenerated, so the physical damage was meaningless.
“okay!”
Natalie replied, erasing her bewildered expression. Yuma passed her and started running toward the sky where the heart floated.
Yuma turned his head several times to confirm the fight between Natalie and Amanzo.
No matter how weak he became, the fact that he left Amanzo to her and went after her heart was painful.
Little by little, there were more moments where Amanjo’s ego was revealed. Natalie’s death was unavoidable if Amanzo was to completely suppress Evan’s ego again.
‘Evan, please hold on until the end!’
Yuma didn’t have the strength left to destroy Amanzo’s heart.
Among his skills, the only one that can reach the heart is the decisive battle, Splitting the Sky, but the remaining auras could not spread it.
However, Yuma did not go to his heart without thinking.
power of the demon.
Yuma planned to return Amanzo’s heart’s power to himself.
Up until now, it was impossible to even try because it was dealing with Amanzo, but Yuma also had the power of a demon.
It meant that Amanzo wasn’t the only one who could use the power of the heart.
Woo woo woo…!
The closer you got, the clearer the sound of the ghostly cry. The heart-bound souls were screaming evil at Yuma.
A feeling of dizziness arose as if it were breaking through the brain. It was as if he was receiving the hatred and sorrow of everyone in the world.
It wasn’t just a feeling. Sticky tears of blood flowed down her cheeks, and Yuma had no choice but to get down on one knee.
Any kind of torture can be overcome if it is physical pain. This is because they were trained while experiencing thousands of deaths in the underworld.
But mental pain was a different story.
In the collection of deaths that now cast a thick shadow under Yuma, there were emotions that no one ‘human’ could handle.
I was out of breath.
I wanted to give up everything right now, weighed down by those countless souls. The ghosts threatened Yuma with hatred and anger and forced him to kneel.
“It’s fucking awful.”
representation.
After returning, Yuma has been moving with the cause of preventing the extinction of mankind. It cannot be said that all of his choices and actions were right, but his mission to save mankind never faded.
I believed so. However, Yuma was realizing at this moment that the ‘great cause’ was not important to him.
It was to face up to his own desires he had deceived himself in the name of a great cause.
Natalie will die if she cannot turn her heart’s power back to herself. His beloved colleagues and all those who gathered to believe in him will die.
To Yuma, that fact was far greater and more important than the immediate destruction of the world.
Such an extremely personal desire was the driving force that kept Yuma from collapsing.
While I was about to lose my mind at the cry of the ghost, I suddenly remembered a conversation I had with the Dragon Lord Mahatrisha a while ago.
– Keep that heart. I want to see that humans sometimes make better choices than me, than gods, dragons, and other transcendent beings.
– It’s hard to understand Rod’s words.
-I abandoned my partner to save the world, but you said you would not abandon your relatives even if the world perishes.
At first glance, the former seems like a better choice, but I’ve had to realize over the last few thousand years that it’s not.
Resol and Haider, humans from another realm who are clearly stronger than Yuma and have transcendental power.
It was no different that Mahatrisa described Yuma as more special than them.
Risol was a person who moved only for a great cause, and Haider was driven by personal desire, but was mad enough to destroy even the natural order.
On the other hand, Yuma was not. Compared to Resol and Haider, Yuma’s desires were small.
That is why Mahatrisha tried to give Yuma the fruit of return.
Of course, even if it is a human being who does not know when it will fall, with a heart to be deceived once.
‘Honestly, if I were a human who moved for a real cause, would I have dared to bear the resentment of these souls now?’
The seat of power of the demon god was in front of me.
The souls that were flowing through Amanzo turned around and began to gather towards Yuma. Tears of blood were still pouring from Yuma’s eyes.
The heaviness that had caused her dizziness just a few seconds before was gone.
Instead, the sweet voices of the ghosts were heard telling them to acquire the power of the heart and create more deaths.
“no!”
shouted Amanzo, who had just bounced Natalie out of the distance. He was running toward Yuma with his eyes wide open, but Yuma’s hand was already stretched out toward his heart.
“It’s over, Amanzo.”
Saaaa…!
The ghosts gathered in his heart began to flow down to Yuma’s fingertips.
Yuma’s vision was obscured by the ghost, and it went dark in an instant.
Amanzo shook his head frantically in disbelief. No matter who saw it, it was not a god, but a human figure in despair.
The black heart descended rapidly to the ground.
As Yuma was completely covered by his heart, a red moon suddenly rose in the gray sky.
Amanzo, who was slumped down, trembled with his mouth open. Even the amoula held in his hand was absorbed by Yuma like a river seeping into the Great Sea.
“Ah ah…
A huge darkness spread over the spot where Yuma was standing.
It was the image of Yuma, who had descended as a demon, and he looked down at Amanzo. Looking at Amanzo as a demon god, his presence was only a small roll of dust.
Yuma was filled with an immense power that could literally control the world at will.
It was impossible for Amanzo to fully descend due to the restrictions on intervention, but it was an invalid law for Yuma, a human outside the realm.
Even if Amanzo killed Yuma without being disturbed by Evan and achieved what Rugal had said, ‘real descent’, it was only about 10% of Yuma now.
That 10% alone would have been enough to devour the royalties, but that’s all.
In other words, if Yuma is compared to a human, he can destroy the world with the flick of a finger or blowing his breath.
Nevertheless, these were the desires that filled Yuma’s heart after gaining the power of a demon.
wanting to be human again.
That I never want to get my hands on this terrible divine power ever again.
Anything was possible as long as he put an end to the war and laid down this power.
Amanzo didn’t even dare to raise his head and repeated the words to himself like a madman. that something is wrong Yuma didn’t even care about him.
Instead, he only ordered this to all demons and possessed people outside.
[Stop.]
