The Grand Mage who transcends by returning, Chapter 216,
has become the 8th circle.
Then what does this mean?
It means that you can beat your opponent with more precision and stickiness with more magic.
【Are you still a hero!】
Belial cried out sadly.
The 8th circle is a high level in magic, and in terms of a swordsman, it is a level that corresponds to a sword master.
Even if I search the entire continent now, I have become one of the few great mages.
Even my enlightenment and knowledge far exceed even that 8th circle.
The important thing is that I can now fully demonstrate the power of the 8th circle.
Yes.
My hands and feet are now relaxed.
‘…Hmm.’
The mana around him feels more detailed than before.
Knowledge and realization had already surpassed the realm of the body, but it was frustrating that the body could not keep up with it.
But now it’s different.
Almost followed now.
‘Now I think I can deal with the halfway guys somehow.’
I thought so and looked at Belial.
Now, no flames burn from the seven swords he is so proud of.
‘I remember.’
Belial’s sword before returning was truly despair itself for us.
The seven swords that he could use without any restrictions were very difficult to deal with.
Even if the entire Argo attacked, it would not be easy to do anything about it.
Immunity that blocks most attacks at the source, or a sense of intimidation that sows fear in the area with just its presence.
In addition, to an overwhelming gigantic body that takes away even the will to fight.
The precious human soldiers and knights were crushed under its feet.
The road he passed was full of gruesome corpses and a sea of blood.
A disaster in motion.
But now it’s different.
The only advantage the guy has now is its gigantic body, and even that isn’t perfect.
The number of troops following him is incomparably small compared to that time.
Most importantly.
【Damn it… …!]
The current guy is catastrophically lacking in ‘confidence’.
There was no certainty in the single attack that he wielded with his sword.
【Warrior…!! Where are you!]
Belial roared into the air with eyes stained with hatred.
Then, he nervously swung his greatsword.
However, the great sword cannot penetrate the storm wall.
As long as he lost his cool, his attacks aren’t that powerful.
at least for us.
“You’re pretty ugly, Belial.”
Set laughed and snapped his fingers.
The storm surrounding Belial begins to condense.
【Kuh ah… …!]
Kuoung!
Belial swung her greatsword at the storm as if desperate.
A spark flashed with a roar.
But it didn’t last long.
The peace that has already been fragmented cannot be restored.
A lifespan that decreases over time.
Duties as the Great Devil.
Hatred for me, the warrior.
All of that would feel like shackles to him.
I stepped out in front of the man who was in full swing.
“Belial.”
[Hero!]
The overwhelming difference in body size makes me feel like a fly.
But it doesn’t matter.
Even so, I can’t even take care of my body.
Tung.
I patted the staff on the ground and slowly walked toward him.
Every time I tapped the staff, I could feel the energy of the World Tree coming out and responding.
Things I didn’t feel very clearly when I was in the 7th circle are now clearly felt on my skin.
“It seems that you hated pure blood for quite some time because of your gray blood.”
【Shut up!】
“I know, I know. It’s a very human emotion. It’s funny. It means that your monarchs, who claim to be superior among demons, are not particularly different.”
He hates pure blood.
No, to be precise, I am mistaking it for hatred.
The true ‘identity’ of the feelings he harbors is… ….
“Greed for what you can’t have and jealousy for it.”
[I should have told you to shut up!]
With those words, the great sword fell down on me, showing off its heavy weight.
If you are crushed by something like that, you will disappear without a trace.
But it doesn’t matter.
“< The Iron Wall of the Great >.”
thud!
You don’t have to fear his attacks anymore.
【what…?!]
“What is wrong? Even if you look at it like this, the 8th circle is a great stage.”
Of course, it’s hard for me to see the 8th circle as purely high.
If you look at it objectively, it’s definitely a great state, but relatively speaking.
I’ve reached the 9th circle.
It’s a very short time, but it’s a position that I’ve been dipping my feet into the 10th circle.
But that’s why I’m different.
Proof that I reached the ‘8th circle’ is not just a simple 8th circle.
To put it bluntly, 8.5 circles?
It is not the 9th circle, but the knowledge and enlightenment have already reached the 9th circle.
Currently, I am in the 8th circle, and at the same time, I am infinitely close to the 9th circle.
【Ughhhh… …!]
The moment I stretched out my hand, magic was manifested.
The atmosphere around the area settles.
The invisible gravity of the 8th Circle simply brought even the great devil’s gigantic body to its knees.
[Cheer keoheok! If I had been intact, what would happen to me like this… …!]
“If you’re going to say that, you shouldn’t have rushed to target this forest in the first place.”
Home means nothing.
Based on that, it is possible to assume that I was also in the 9th circle.
The reality of this situation is what matters.
Obsessed with nervousness and an inferiority complex, he threw himself into an unfavorable environment.
No matter how much power and potential you have, it’s of no use if you can’t properly express it.
On that day, he laughed.
【Hero, you will be defeated in the end.】
“That’s right.”
【You know that too. In the end, he will descend to purify this world, and you are destined to be swept away by that predetermined future… ….]
I don’t know. I was the one who saw the future with my own two eyes.
As I stared at him quietly, unperturbed at all, his eyes trembled slightly.
【Aren’t you afraid! The creatures dare not do anything to God! The god who will protect your world is weak, and the mighty god has fallen long ago!]
“….”
【What the greatest first warrior also said! In the end, he met a miserable end while being possessed by the demon!]
But why are you!
With those words, the guy glared at me.
humanity’s dark future.
predestined despair.
He talked about those things and tried to break my composure somehow.
Just like I did to him.
The guy wanted to do that too.
But I didn’t react.
[What is it?]
When the expected reaction didn’t come out, he couldn’t hide his agitation.
【Why are you looking at me casually? If it’s like you, what I said is the truth! You know it’s a predestined doom! why…!】
“I know.”
I know… ….
“But isn’t that today?”
【…?!]
I rather laughed.
It is a smile that can be made because he has already seen the future.
A smile that is convinced of the ‘possibility’ that can be changed because it has already seen that gruesome sight.
“Yes, I am not the one who will be destroyed today.”
Of course, I have no intention of being defeated by the Demon God, but that’s aside.
“Today is you, kid.”
I pointed to Belial and said.
* * *
“…hmm.”
World Tree Yggdrasil.
As the owner of this forest and the mother of all elves, she watched everything that happened in the forest.
It would be nice if you could come forward and solve the problem yourself, but it’s a pity that you can’t.
It is because she has the awareness that she is an indispensable being in this world.
Isn’t it the power that I barely regained?
In a situation where you haven’t even fully recovered yet, it’s not okay if an unexpected mishap occurs.
If I can’t help it, I’ll have to do it.
Because she had a trustworthy ally called ‘Hero’.
That’s why I tried to look at all these situations while stopping at the line of supporting the hero.
“…definitely the devil. It is true that it has a power that cannot be ignored.”
A lord with seven swords.
I know about Belial.
Of course, I know that it is not an existence that can be ignored.
That’s why I watched the hero’s performance with a nervous heart… ….
“hmm.”
The World Tree salivated once more.
I don’t know how to describe the sight I’m seeing.
Fuck! Pooh!
Belial was beaten to death.
【Are you still a warrior!】
– Yes, a warrior.
【If you’re going to kill me, kill me nicely! I want you to die like a monarch!]
– Yes, no.
A very miserable look.
Isn’t Belial even shedding tears?
Besides, the seven demonic swords he was so proud of.
The great demonic swords that have been passed down under the name of Belial until now… ….
– revolution!
– Life is sweet! bitter!
– To Dirge Parliament!
It was being eaten miserably.
By those little fairies he had so much ignored.
I don’t know how the heck they eat that evil sword, but anyway.
‘Even though it’s a fairy, it was such a creature in the first place.’
They are not beings that can be understood just because they try to understand them.
Anyway, it’s a piece of shit.
Belial was being crushed by the hero in many ways.
Yeah, so far so good… ….
‘…Isn’t that part of the staff?’
Why is it that he is involved with that staff who beats up the devil?
It’s like the great devil is going miserable. Although he’s sure what he wants.
what is it this awkwardness.
no more than that
‘No matter how much he is the Great Devil, can he go so miserably?’
I thought of something I shouldn’t do.
But what? What I really think… ….
Abominable lords who antagonized the great Asar as their adversary.
I’m sure there are countless times I’ve imagined their end, but… ….
“Wasn’t it like this?”
what. what is it
Why the hell is the tip of the staff red? Something seems to have gone corrupt.
“…Uhm.”
In an indescribably complex mood, the world tree decided to give up thinking.
yes what… ….
Isn’t good good?
* * *
【No fuck!】
Belial let out a desperate scream.
【I can’t die like this! I’d rather kill with honor!]
“Ah honestly….”
In the case of a really different great demon, it seems that it will be annihilated in a rather solemn battle… ….
“You are not in that class.”
【야 이 개새끼야!】
“아 생각해 보니까 에녹이라고 머저리 하나 있던데 걔가 너 따라가기는 하겠다.”
It’s just a simple prediction, but I don’t think he’ll be able to spend it well.
whatever
“Thank you, Belial.”
【what…?】
“Thanks to that, I became the 8th circle and it helped a lot.”
With sincere gratitude, I tapped Belial on the shoulder with a staff.
The man’s face was terribly distorted.
【This two… …!]
Belial screamed desperately, shedding red bloody tears.
【Do you think this will end!】
“What is there?”
[As soon as I disappear, this area will be destroyed! Even if you found a loophole and overpowered it, that’s all… …!】
“Hmm.”
An intense explosion that occurs with the extinction of the Great Demon.
Certainly, the aftermath of extinction cannot be ignored at the point of forcibly finding the true name.
that’s definitely true.
but.
“Why am I here?”
There is a set here.
“Whoops.”
Set smirked and reached out his hands toward Belial.
A storm begins to surround him tightly.
So that the shock inside doesn’t leak out at all… ….
What ability did the storm give me?
absolute defense.
The power in me must be like that, but what about the set that is the source of that power?
[Ah.]
Belial looked at Set with empty eyes.
If nothing else, a set with the full support of the World Tree is invincible.
Storm is God.
【No, why am I the only one doing this… ….]
You sent the other two guys in a good mood… ….
Why are you doing this only to me?
Belial looked at me with eyes that roughly meant that.
I said with a sweet smile.
“You can’t.”
【….]
Before the return, mankind suffered defeat 99 times by the great demon Belial.
And now… ….
【Ah! Shit! Dog dog… …!]
I won the first time.
Originally, the one who wins at the end is the real winner.
