The great mage who transcends by returning Chapter 293
Belphegor was convinced.
Now that God has come and has received His power, not even the imperfect apostles or even the mighty would be enemies.
That was his confidence as a believer.
One-sided blind faith that started from the idea that God is unconditionally right.
Of course.
In the first place, the value of their existence lies with God, and the future guided by that god is always right.
That’s why I didn’t reject the words of the ‘elder’ Avaritia.
…Because he was acting as the voice of a great god.
That’s why he just followed everyone’s decision even though he had the most power among all the great demons of Pandaemonium that descended first.
‘But what is it?’
What the hell is this right in front of your eyes?
not moving.
Even the great power given to him by God was useless in this situation.
‘It can’t be.’
If there is an effect of the power received from God, it is that the mind is clear even in this situation.
And the hero just smiles a terrible smile as if he knows his situation.
‘Why is this happening again!’
At that time, it was because of carelessness.
I believed so.
That’s why I was sure that if the right situation was created, there would be no defeat.
But why the hell!
“…!”
I tried to move my body somehow, but I couldn’t even lift a hand. It was possible to grasp that the hero had used a bizarre move that could not be dared to guess.
If so, with the power given to you by God.
Surely these grotesque shackles… ….
‘why.’
But instinctively, I realized.
No matter how hard I try, I can’t shake off these shackles with my own strength.
Stopped time and space.
The power Belphegor received was mighty, but not strong enough to overcome the ‘natural’ order and law.
Then what will the warrior do?
flinch.
Belphegor reflexively trembled.
How despicable and cunning that warrior is. He also knows how merciless he is against a demon like himself.
He was a valiant lord of demons, but he could not shake off his fear.
That damn warrior.
From the point of view of his own people, he was an existence that could become indescribably terrible.
Do not come.
Belphegor tried to move his motionless mouth somehow.
But it is impossible.
And the time when I was waiting in nervousness and fear.
‘…ah.’
The warrior lifted the staff.
“Giggle.”
With a terrible smile that I’m afraid to see in my dreams… ….
It is so terrible that it cannot be seen as the smile of a person who has done the unprecedented thing of stopping time and space.
‘Why on earth.’
Why?
Why is the hero holding a sword and not a holy sword?
* * *
Pug!
The big, beautiful staff hit Belphegor hard on the head.
However, only Belphegor’s eyes flickered faintly, and there was nothing he could do.
In the first place, this stopped time and space is a phenomenon that appeared with a divinity added.
No matter how much the demon’s power is received, its essence is unavoidable.
Unless the level of the soul itself rises, the gap between him and me will never narrow.
And how much did you knock on his whole body like that?
key gig.
There was a dull sound in the air, like a gear turning. Gradually stopping time and space must mean that it has reached its limit.
and right after.
thud!
“Keep loud?!”
The blows suffered so far were dealt to Belphegor.
The guy twisted his body, coughing up blood in the flow of time again. Then it just fell to the ground.
“Hmm, even a fairly physical hit is effective.”
In the first place, when I realized that I was a godhead, the act of simply swinging a staff was no longer ‘simple’.
Should I say that every action he takes carries his divinity?
First of all, I immediately went to the apostles who were watching this situation.
“Michael, what the hell happened in the ordeal?”
Thoth asked me, looking quite agitated for a guy.
It must mean that the change that has happened to me is dramatic enough to make him shake.
“What the hell is there….”
“Nothing was wrong. The ordeal passed as planned, and if there is something different, is it that you met God?”
“…!”
At my words, the four apostles looked at me with their eyes wide open.
“I guess that means…!”
“Yes, it wasn’t ‘real’, it was just a reenactment, but I met Asar and thanks to him, I got some things.”
After saying that, I looked in the direction where Belphegor had fallen.
I’ve been beaten this way and that, but it’s not to the point of being fatal.
“Warrior…!”
he shouted with bloodshot eyes.
Even though I stumble, I somehow get up. If it wasn’t for the devil, he might have praised him for his guts.
For now, let’s deal with that guy later, but there are other things that need to be prioritized.
I turned my gaze towards Anubis.
“It looks like you got hit pretty badly.”
On the chest side of Anubis, the spear pierced wound was clearly left. Centered on the wound, a terrible demonic energy is preventing recovery.
Considering that Belphegor was fully assisted by the Demon God, it is not strange.
complete devil.
An imperfect apostle.
If the two stick together, it would be natural for the former to prevail.
No matter how many apostles there is, there’s nothing good about leaving it like this.
“…It’s not like I can solve it with my own strength.”
Nephthys bowed her head with an expression of disrespect.
If it’s a wound that can’t be healed even with her abundance, it’s definitely not easy.
But it doesn’t matter.
I lightly reached for Anubis’ wound. After that, I simply identified only ‘Magi’ and took it out.
Originally, it is difficult.
If he hadn’t been aware of his divinity, he wouldn’t have been able to bring out the demon so precisely and without any side effects.
It’s all thanks to the new eyes I got by realizing my divinity.
“…her.”
Seeing my response, Root briefly expressed admiration.
Anubis’ condition improved rapidly.
But consciousness won’t come back immediately. If so, you’ll need someone to replace you.
“Apopis.”
“Speak.”
“Anubis’ condition has improved, but he is not in a good condition to respond to the demon’s plan right now.”
Apophis is the oldest of the existing dragons and has a lot of knowledge.
And he has the authority to move other dragons.
He asked as if he understood my meaning right away.
“Can I move my own people?”
“Yes please.”
They may not be fully ready yet, but given the circumstances, there is no choice but to use them.
“I will.”
Apophis nodded.
If so, that’s it.
“Let’s all go back to our places.”
I said looking at the five apostles.
With those words, the round table began to emit light again.
“no!”
At that moment, Belphegor’s bright red eyes burst and he reached out toward the round table.
But it was too late.
Even if Belphegor had reached this point in time, I had no intention of letting him block the round table’s return.
“You hang out with me here.”
“Warrior…!”
He glared at me with eyes full of hostile emotions.
There was a time when those eyes scared me more than anything else.
There was a time when the gruesome deaths of countless human beings in those eyes weighed heavily on everyone’s shoulders.
but.
“I am not afraid anymore.”
know.
The time I passed by won’t come back. The despair, sadness, and pain I experienced… ….
And the ties lost in the process cannot be regained.
Admit it.
So what I can do is thoroughly and brutally… ….
“To trample on you.”
Belphegor came right in front of me.
That moment.
I saw Belphegor’s ‘path’ that I couldn’t see before.
At the same time, how to attack and ‘what’ is behind him… ….
“Aaaaaaa!”
Belphegor threw a spear at me with his bloodshot eyes wide open.
pitch black window.
A weapon imbued with the nature of a demon god that devours opponents by itself and spreads darkness endlessly.
never easy to see
Currently, I can’t even count on Set to help.
That means I can’t use ‘Storm’, which plays the biggest role in protecting me.
But what do you mean?
“You’re not perfect either.”
I smiled coldly at the red eyes that were watching me from beyond Belphegor.
After all, you’ve already descended.
But it won’t be perfect.
“If it had been perfect, it would have come to the fore right away and made a fuss.”
Right now, his ability is not even as good as the Demon God he had in his first encounter before returning.
I guess so.
There is only one difference from before the regression.
Right after returning, I ran diligently and destroyed his plan from the very beginning.
Unlike before the return, infighting among mankind did not occur.
If it had been according to their plan, the negative emotions that would have overflowed in this world were greatly reduced.
It is as if the most important power source has been blown away in a situation where the negative emotions felt by mankind are replaced with its power.
When I stretched out my hand, a white barrier of light blocked my path.
‘Is it like this?’
It cuts off the space itself to fundamentally block the attack itself. With that, Belphegor’s blow of conversion became ‘nonexistent’ from the beginning.
“what…?”
Seeing the result, the agitated guy grinded his teeth.
Perhaps he judged that long distances were useless, and he immediately closed the distance with me.
If he had accepted the power of the Demon God, he would have some threatening means of attack.
At that moment, Belphegor’s arms stretched out. It’s not just about growing. Countless eyes appeared on both arms.
that….
‘Demon god’s eyes!’
“You guys, you guys…! I should have killed him then! If you had killed them right away, this wouldn’t have happened!”
With those words, the entire area was enveloped in demonic energy.
The Demon God’s power inherited from him exerts control over the surroundings.
Quaaaaaa!
Magi became a storm and swept the surroundings. Its power is strong enough to rip out quite a few things without leaving a trace.
The ruins of Shilin, which had barely maintained their shape, completely disappeared with only the aftermath of the storm.
The forest collapsed, and the rocky mountains that rose around it were crushed.
The demon’s pupils were all staring at me alone.
“Don’t move.”
“Don’t resist.”
They all said that and put a heavy weight on my shoulders.
power of the divine being.
Of course, no matter how much ‘sin’ he inherited, there’s no way he could afford to be a mere creature.
Belphegor smiled viciously, distorting his face that had been messed up with bloody tears.
“Asar is dead! He is the only true god left on this earth! No matter how much you deny it, that fact won’t go away!”
divine power.
An absolute order that no created being could possibly refuse came upon me.
“You will have no choice but to obey! The power of Hekau, who gave you strength, is weak, and the sacred objects dwelling in you also belong to a dead god… …! you never… …!”
“Okay.”
I grabbed the arm of the guy who was so energetic.
The eyes of the demon god or something simple.
“…what?”
The boy’s eyes trembled with bewilderment.
A very upset expression.
As it was, I chanted magic with the other hand holding the staff.
There is no need to memorize otherwise simplified incantations.
The stage that requires such a ‘cumbersome’ process has passed.
just by thinking
“Keep haha…?!”
The embodied divine power struck him without mercy. He threw up in the air, vomiting blood.
However, he straightened up and fired his spear at me again.
Of course, the attack didn’t mean much. The gap between beings with and without divinity is solid.
“Damn it!”
Belphegor rushed at me again, his face distorted.
My right arm is bothering me.
I could see the cracks that had occurred in the process of the demon overusing his power.
I snapped my fingers towards the particularly deep and large one.
At that moment, a huge amount of mana escaped from me.
Kwajik!
As if it were natural, his right arm was ‘crumbled’.
“Ouch…?!”
With his eyes wide open, he grabbed the spear with his other hand and slashed it down towards my neck again.
But that too.
Kwajik.
It ended with the arm crumbling with a restrained plosive.
Still, the guy.
“It is still…!”
Didn’t give up.
Once again, jet-black spears embroidered countless times in the air and rushed toward me.
but nothing touches
Its attacks only slashed itself.
‘Is this the gap between beings with divinities and beings without them?’
I sighed a little, realizing the fact that I had come to realize belatedly.
Well, that’s why I couldn’t win.
Even I, who barely bloomed half of it right away, would be like this, but what about the godhead itself, the demon?
The process continued countless times.
Belphegor recovered and attacked.
I just destroyed him after destroying all of them.
how long has it been like that
“…Kirgh black.”
Before I knew it, he was in front of me, on his knees with his arms completely shattered and looking ugly.
He didn’t stop staring at me with his head raised with pitch-black eyes.
“You bastard…Hehe, I should have cut it right away… ….”
“….”
“As expected, I am right. any damage… …I should have taken the risk and killed him… ….”
As he said that, he brooded over his past regrets until the very last moment.
Maybe it was the first and last chance for him.
“Ha hot…Do you think you won?”
“Oh, I think so.”
I even got a sense of it.
Now there is no reason to be wary of the explosion that follows the extinction of the Great Demon. It’s enough to block the explosion by cutting off the space itself.
There is no need to be particularly wary of the aftermath, so if this is not victory, then what on earth is victory?
The guy said to me.
“I am not finished. Anyway, the main unit of Pandaemonium… …It hasn’t even come yet… ….”
It’s a story I’ve heard many times.
It seems that most of the great demons who went to the goal to me recited this repertoire… ….
“hey.”
I looked at that guy and said.
“But if you die right now, the only thing left is Enoch.”
“….”
“Hey, what the hell is he doing these days? I can’t see him.”
“….”
At my words, Belphegor stared blankly at me.
“Poetry….”
It collapsed with a brief swearing.
It was a very simple advice indeed.
