The great mage who transcends by returning Chapter 348
Learning has no end.
I learned that there is no end even though I feel like I have reached the top to some extent.
And when you climb one mountain, you can see another mountain, which is life.
So, in a way, learning can be seen as another life for a person.
Even when the future of the world is at stake, the importance of learning is by no means weak.
On the contrary, no matter how much I emphasize it, it is not enough….
“Stop talking bullshit and go straight to the point, right?”
“…hmm.”
Aileen urges me with a cold voice without any romance.
Ah, this was a very important part, so I’ll cut this off.
“I’ll hand you over, so learn it.”
“What if I don’t get used to it?”
“My noble and sacred staff will not stand still.”
“….”
All five of them looked at me like I was crazy.
But what can I do?
I need to get stronger
Now that I have a higher level of godhood, I have no reason to rely on gods, but my colleagues are different.
It will surely be of great help.
“Uh um…There are a total of 12 divine objects you currently have, right?”
“yes.”
“Then, since we have a total of five people, the thing about sacred objects….”
“I plan to hand over one at a time. I have a few more to hand over.”
“As for some others…Are you referring to those colleagues who were said to have been together before returning?”
“yes.”
Each of my pre-return colleagues has great potential.
With the help of the gods, I’m sure I can do many other things effectively.
Lack of time to learn how to use a new product?
Okay. After all, in this space, time is enough.
If you meet a few conditions, time is truly full and overflowing.
“Once you finish training, practice again….”
“You are getting stronger. Other people cannot afford to pay for this experience.”
I had already decided which sacred objects to hand over to everyone.
Ariandel is resilience, Herma is time, butler is magic, Aileen is speed, Lian is an alter ego… ….
That would be enough.
There was no reason to delay, so I immediately transferred the object to the five.
It wasn’t that difficult.
Just with the thought of handing it over, the divine object dwelled in the five.
Of course, I was still the owner of the sacred object.
However, as much as the transfer was conditional, the divine power could be used without restrictions.
After receiving the gift like that, Lian asked me.
“But how are you going to get used to it, given that you’ve been handed over something like this? You have to learn this through actual practice… ….”
“that’s right. You have to get used to it.”
Rihanna well said.
I listened to the staff with a hearty smile.
At that moment, the five of them, with their eyes on my staff, moved away from me at the same time.
Ryan stuttered.
“You, you bastard…!”
“You know how to stop it!”
I’m going to hit you!

In this way, Mikhail is forcibly raising the power of his colleagues by handing over the ‘God’.
Siegfried was on his way to Hekau, as Mikhail commanded.
“…hmm.”
Finding the location was not difficult.
Because Mikhail’s advice was correct.
It clearly explained the ‘how’ to find, rather than simply picking a place on the map.
Land where great gods have fallen.
When Siegfried arrived, the situation was quite close.
It was a situation where demons, who were the masters of demons, were waiting to tear apart the fallen god.
The location where she crashed is a place that people rarely reach even within the continent.
A land called < Forgotten Land >.
Strangely, it was a land where nothing was felt, but now all sorts of monsters and demons were roaming around to tear apart the one god.
“…It’s not easy.”
Siegfried wiped off the monsters’ blood from his sword with a tired expression.
Hundreds of monsters have already been cut with this sword, but there is no sign that the number will diminish.
I had several thoughts.
No matter how uninhabited the land is, the fact that the number of monsters has increased to this extent means that neither the Church nor the Empire are completely safe from them.
The situation that Mikhail warned so much and worried about is right in front of him.
Getting here wasn’t easy.
However, facing a crisis beyond that, Siegfried continued to grow.
He himself does not know, but the talent that was recognized as a ‘hero’ before returning did not go anywhere.
In this situation where the god crashed and monsters were scattered everywhere, his power rather quickly grew stronger.
This was one of Mikhail’s goals.
In addition, in the process of cutting down demons that rush at him regardless of means and methods, he also learned about ‘flexibility’ in actual combat.
what to give up
what else to choose
That the world doesn’t always go in the ‘right direction’.
‘Compromise approved.’
Siegfried looked around, remembering the realization he had recently gained.
It was then.
“Please save me!”
With a scream, a woman with one shoulder pierced by a spear was running desperately.
It was truly devastating, as if he had been in a rather rough situation.
Siegfried stared blankly at the woman.
If he had been him before, he would have recklessly tried to save that woman.
Because it was in front of me anyway.
But now his eyes on the woman were cold.
What stood in his eyes was cold reason, not the intense emotions he had before.
and….
Chew!
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
“You don’t seem to get tired of it.”
With short words, he cut the woman as it was. It was a resolute move without any hesitation.
At the same time, the figure of the woman who had been cut by the sword twisted grotesquely, and soon changed into the appearance of a terrible monster.
Siegfried let out a small sigh and passed the monster’s corpse.
‘…I didn’t expect to get used to this situation.’
Before coming here, I met many monsters.
Some of them tried to catch themselves through illusions and inhuman traps.
Hostages, for example.
They constantly made him suffer mentally through the ‘fantasy’ of taking innocent people hostage.
It was a fantasy.
However, it was so sophisticated that at one point he actually moved on the premise that it was a hostage.
lost countless times
After meeting Mikhail, Siegfried’s thoughts changed in many ways, but it is true that he still remained stern.
However, in the process of dealing with countless demons and monsters, Siegfried had no choice but to abandon that ‘snobbish side’ unwillingly.
If it were simply a matter of his life, it wouldn’t have changed so dramatically.
But the mission was at stake.
It is also a serious mission to save the ‘god’ received from the hero he respects.
He had to repay that trust and he had to change.
Siegfried moved on.
If necessary, he quenched his thirst with the blood of monsters or demons, and he hunted them first in all kinds of ways.
He had to become a brutal hunter if need be.
A few days passed like that… ….
“…ah.”
We finally arrived at our destination.
Unlike other places, light was shining down on it, and many monsters around it were hardened and being purified.
A pretty bizarre sight.
and at its center.
“….”
A girl was standing.
With tired eyes, she was watching the monsters being purified beneath her.
Perhaps noticing the presence, the girl’s head slowly turned toward it.
Eyes with a subtle light that reminds me of a fox somewhere.
“ah…!”
It was a girl he had never seen before, but Siegfried knew instinctively that this girl was what he was looking for.
He immediately fell to his knees.
“I came to see you.”
“…okay.”
The girl, unable to hide her expression of exhaustion and discouragement,
“Let’s go.”
No, Hecau said.
* * *
“Are you all right?”
After the situation was sorted out to some extent, Siegfried cautiously asked Hekau.
The great and benevolent God looked a little, or very discouraged.
That fact hurt me.
“….”
Hekau looked up at the sky for a moment.
Siegfried did not dare to guess its meaning.
I just knew it was complicated.
“It’s okay.”
She struggled to open her mouth and then took her gaze away from the sky.
“So Mikhail sent it?”
“Yeah Mikhail seemed to have foreseen this situation. But he has many other things to do, and he has entrusted this to me.”
“Yes, I guess.”
Hekau was lost in thought for a moment.
crashed
She knows what it means for a demon to possess the sky above.
It means that the boundary can be broken, and at the same time, it means that the demon god has prepared an ‘environment’ to obtain all his powers.
And what will put an end to that environment is the chaos of the continent after all.
Fear, destruction, and death itself will become ‘faith’ and flow to the Demon God, and then, based on that belief, authority will be restored.
Worst case scenario.
But at the same time, it was also to some extent expected.
From that day on, I knew very well that she couldn’t stop the Demon God’s intervention forever.
She saw my believer.
Although she has fallen, there are still many people who worship her as a god in this land.
Therefore, the power she can use is not small.
Several plans came and went in my head.
And the basis of that plan was what he had said before returning.
“Die.”
It is not clear for what reason he said that.
It’s not impossible to guess, but that’s the realm of speculation to the end.
The self before the regression intentionally blocked information from itself and did not give any information other than the word ‘die’.
‘It doesn’t matter.’
If you were like that at the time, it means that there must be a clear reason.
If so, it must mean that thinking about the reason and moving is itself the answer.
And perhaps a significant part of that ‘why’… ….
“Mikhail.”
Hekau continued.
“Let’s go to Mikhail. There must be a way for my warrior.”

These days, I have a problem.
what is violence
It is very philosophical and contains many values.
Since ancient times, human history has been, in a way, a history of violence.
Isn’t the present world the result of endless struggles and fights not to be taken away from oneself?
And that’s why people are more beautiful.
Suppressing that ‘obvious’ violence and living in pursuit of peace… …
“That expression of thinking like dog poop again. I just think of myself as a beggar whenever I have a chance.”
“I agree. In fact, it’s a bit embarrassing for our young master to give it away.”
It was really nice to see Ryan and the butler talking to each other and teasing me.
It would have been nice if I could stand up proudly and expose myself.
“Isn’t it embarrassing if both of you grumble like that?”
Both of them were literally shattered.
Of course, even so, it should be enough to hold your breath.
Anyway, at first, the two of them screamed and screamed.
“I’m not embarrassing.”
“Think of this happening dozens of times without being ashamed of once or twice. You get used to it.”
After a bit of repetition, it ended up like this.
Considering that acceptance is the last step in accepting death, these two may already be halfway to heaven.
“Since both arms and legs are smashed, you can feel like a slug, and it’s strange.”
“That’s right, old man. It’s probably not a common experience for Master to act like a caterpillar.”
It seems that the shamelessness of these two has reached a great level now.
“…Please restore it.”
“Yes Mikhail.”
Ariandel immediately approached the two and performed a healing spell.
Then, wouldn’t the bodies of the two, who had been arguing just before, return to the beginning when they were healthy in an instant?
“Um, thank you. Holy Maiden.”
“Hehe, I’m going to move a little now.”
The two, who evolved from caterpillars to humans, naturally stood up.
I asked Ryan.
“So do you understand?”
“…to some extent.”
After recovering, Lian moved his body around and began to raise the power of the god.
then that moment.
“her.”
“how is it?”
In an instant, dozens of Lians surrounded the area.
It’s not all mere fantasy.
Even if not more than the main body, they all have their own fighting power.
hook.
It wasn’t long. The guy immediately returned everything and told me.
“About 30 people? It is possible to increase it to that extent. It seems that this is the limit.”
“That’s enough.”
No, it was more than expected. Not all of the 30 alter egos are ‘power’.
Even if it was done, it would have worked well if it was half of Lian’s main body, but that alone is enough to increase power.
“I also had an income.”
After Lian’s words ended, the butler showed strength this time.
“< Burn up. >.”
At that moment, a bright red flame burned in the butler’s hand.
It wasn’t some complicated formula or magic accompanied by chanting.
Simply put, ‘words’ themselves are embodied in magic. The highest realm that any wizard dreams of.
It was possible because Apophis’ ‘dragon’ dwelled in the butler.
“…Well, it was transferred to the end, and it’s not my natural power, so I’m a little confused.”
“Enough if you use it.”
Of course, it’s not just Rihanna and the butler.
Not to mention Herma, who was able to partially control time, and the ‘speed’ that Aileen gained was also a huge income… ….
It’s Ariandel. Well, the fact that the butler and Rian were restored in an instant can explain the growth of their abilities.
hmm yes
Once this is ready.
So now all that’s left is… ….
“Now is the time to really think about the end and make a plan.”
It’s just the determination to end everything.
