310. Qualification test (1)
God of regret.
Said the old monster who had built up power as a godhead for a long time.
Divinity is the power to twist the real world as an abstract concept.
Therefore, he said that even if those who do not have a divinity can compare with a deity, their lives are not very valuable.
‘I didn’t know that it could mean something like this.’
In fact, the God of Regret had the power to say so.
I narrowed my eyes at the supernatural ability of the divinity < Repentance > that was still strangling every part of my body.
…No way, even if there was a restriction of being in a 1:1 confrontation between the two, they would return each other’s state to the state before divinity acquisition.
‘Are all my abilities going back to my mortal days?’
Divinity < Repentance > did not only lower the dignity of divinity.
All stats, skills, power items, and many other powers are erased, and in the true sense of the word, return to the state of a mortal.
The exclusive perk ‘Absolute Preservation (SSS+)’ previously acquired in the Giant Tree Labyrinth was torn like a sheet of paper and allowed to be sealed by the opponent’s power.
Even counter-type powers such as Divine < Reversal > did not activate.
‘In fact, it’s a power that’s close to the strongest among high-ranking deities.’
I was very surprised because it was the first time I had encountered a divinity that touched the concept of time.
But is it because of the difference between the transcendence myth < Spirit Tuning > and each other?
The god of remorse has now reached a level that is nothing more than what he fell for in his own tricks.
“…Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.”
As if he had an intuition of death, he was constantly breaking out in a cold sweat.
The god of remorse, who had acquired the appearance of his youth, rolled his eyes here and there.
It was worth it.
Currently, he has lost all kinds of divinity due to divinity < remorse > and all his powers have returned to his mortal days.
Now that the cause of his self-confidence has disappeared, he has no choice but to become nervous.
“…God of transcendence. this is my mistake So, why don’t we go to a draw this time?”
In fact, the god of remorse said so while breaking out in a cold sweat.
[ tie? ]
“…I had no ill feelings toward you. So, isn’t that why you’ve saved so much energy? Let’s be polite to each other like godlike.”
[To discuss courtesy between gods, isn’t that a godhead anymore? ]
“… uh. That’s um, so that could explain—”
[I don’t need to explain much. Because I’m going to kill you now anyway. ]
And I immediately looked at the god of remorse and raised the Blood Heaven Demon Sword.
Perhaps, if the condition of 1:1 confrontation is satisfied, the god of remorse will not be able to return to the body of a transcendent.
If so, wouldn’t it be more efficient to deal with him on the spot instead of wasting time?
Even more than anything, I was greatly interested in the divinities of the God of Regret and the potential inherent in it.
‘I’ve never seen a divinity that can indirectly touch the concept of time.’
It was worth it.
Because the divinity < remorse > possessed by the god of remorse could touch the concept of the past.
It seemed that a high level of operation would be possible as long as there was a high level of understanding of the concept, rather than a specific method.
[I wanted to have the divinity related to time even if it wasn’t. ]
And.
Whoa…!
[Then die now. ]
The moment I tried to defeat the god of remorse by swinging the blood demon sword.
“…Now now now wait! You, you, you will never get my power!”
chuck.
I stopped swinging the Blood Heaven Demon Sword at the sudden sound of remorse.
[ what? ]
“…Ha ha ha. It’s because it’s a body that’s been around for a long time. I have found out how your divinity is strengthened.”
[ …. ]
“…With a kind of spirit-related ability, we collect and stock up on spirits, and if that’s not enough, we raise the level of divinity with mythology.”
[ It’s amazing. ]
I never thought I’d figured it out in that short time.
In fact, it seems that I have found out the general information about necromancy and the myth < The Possibility of Transcendence >
.
In any case, information about me might become known to my enemies.
“And your power will not work on me now.”
However, the god of remorse continued as if he knew even that.
“Currently, I lost my divinity and returned to my mortal form. soul and divinity. None of that will be an attractive reward for you.”
And only then did I understand what he was saying.
[In short, you mean that there would be nothing to be gained by killing now, right? ]
“That’s right….”
[Come to think of it, it must be so. It wouldn’t be good to absorb the spirit, and if you don’t have a divinity, you won’t be able to get a divinity either. ]
“Okay, so I’ll make a suggestion…”
[I don’t think so. ]
“?”
But even so, I had no intention of listening to the god of remorse.
‘There is no need to be fooled by the tricks of the God of Remorse.’
The god of remorse, who has regained his youthful appearance in front of him, is an old monster among old people.
The proof is that he didn’t show his strength until he learned information about me.
The god of remorse is a slob who can thoroughly calculate gains and losses, and it was not good to give such a person room to do something.
[Then, I should do what I want. ]
So.
[God of remorse. ]
“…what what? Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden?”
[Among the monarchs in the demon realm, do you know of those who are good at black magic? ]
“…… What is that?”
There is no need to be fooled by the Nogoe’s tricks, and this side just needs to control him.
[At least until that side regains their strength, this side should make good use of their time. ]
Even if it wasn’t so, I wanted to deeply explore the possibility of black magic that I saw in the melee with the monarchs.
[Let’s go learn black magic. ]
Perhaps from now on, it will be an interesting black magic training.
***
Time passed quickly.
「Achievement ‘Real Devil’ has been achieved.」
「Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increased reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.」
「Reward level obtained from achievement has been increased from [Grade E] to [Grade D] It rises.」
「The skill ‘Pure Malice (D)’ is created.」
Makai (魔界).
There was a lot of really fun things to learn in a world where only evil beings live.
Should I say that I regret once again that I had underestimated the value of pure skills by focusing on skills, powers, and divine abilities?
‘There are really many interesting things in the Pandemonium…’
At this point, there are more insights gained from exploring the Pandemonium than fighting with the gods.
“Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
“God of remorse!! You crazy bastard! you you! What kind of monster did you bring!!”
“Heh heh. Ga family arcane formula? Crazy guy…! Did you just terrorize the territory with something like that!!”
Many demons gave visions of black magic, shedding bloody tears.
‘There are really a lot of sorcery.’
There were too many types of spells to count.
Elemental magic, body strengthening magic, regeneration magic, etc…
Every time I visited the old masters of the demon realm and obtained their arcane magic, my black magic progressed quickly.
「Achievement ‘Master of Element Application-type Black Magic’ has been achieved.]
「Achievement ‘Master of Physical Activation-type Dark Magic’ has been achieved…]
「Achievement ‘Master of Regeneration Promotion-type Dark Magic’ has been achieved… It reached a level where counting the black magic you couldn’t do was faster than the black magic you could do before you knew it
.
―At this point, isn’t it okay to be a black magician now…?
Even Dam Chun-wu, who watched the process, said so.
Countless demons and demons became a handful of blood.
There were demons that reached the same level as Alkaid, and there was also a master of black magic that reached an even higher level.
But even so, the end was all the same.
“Hehehehehe!! You are arrogant black magician!! Do you think you will see the end of the road only with your talent!!”
「 Achievement
‘Arcane Spell Snatcher’ has been achieved.」
I have achieved ‘Great Master’.」
“He ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! three worlds! The world will perish! A monster is being born…!!”
「Accomplishment “Worst Talent” achieved.」
In the end, all the black magicians spat out their spells and died.
[ It’s easy. ]
Even though I didn’t use any divine power, the progress was not blocked.
It didn’t even take that much time to defeat the black magicians all over the demon realm.
At most, a day or so had passed.
But, unlike that, there were many rewards.
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s victory against the monarch brought him 11.9% closer to the 2nd ascension.」 「As a
special reward for < Divine Ascension >, you will acquire the exclusive effect ‘Black Mage (A+)’.」 「From
now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon will You can get additional compensation for black magic.
”
In fact, isn’t he now more capable than any wizard the Earth has ever seen?
His achievements in black magic were deep enough to think so.
A state in which the growth of ascension is made again and the divinity can go beyond the ancient deity level.
At the very least, it seemed certain that he would become an ancient deity by clearing this special layer.
Satisfied with that, I continued the work I had been putting off while wiping off the blood from my hands.
It’s nothing else… 「
The spirit piece ‘■■■[3/3]’ has met the required charge level.」
You can learn it.」
「Currently, the potential divinities that can be acquired are < Hell >, < Track >, and < Acceleration >.」 「
※The potential divinity that was not selected at this time will not appear as an option later.」
[Come to think of it, kill Alton. and attained divinity. ]
Previously, he had a chance to acquire divinity by killing Alton, who was the 64th Lord and an apostle of the ancient Godhead.
It’s just that the acquisition of divinity itself was not prioritized until now, so acquiring divinity was delayed.
And now, as we were nearing the end of the black magic, there was time to get a new divinity.
[I think I know roughly what it is all about… ]
It was guessed which of the apostles each of these choices came from.
Karnar Sagsis’ divinity < Hell >, Kramash’s divinity that served the god of battle < Pursuit >, and Alton’s divinity < Acceleration >… It was
n’t very interesting.
For now, Karnar Sagsis’ divinity < Hell > had already been seen before, so he passed it on, and his divinity < Pursuit > and < Acceleration > were his eyes.
But even this didn’t last that long.
‘Neither the divine < Hell > nor the divine < Pursuit > are likely to be very good, so this would be better.’
That’s also the case…
[Selection complete.]
[Divinity < Acceleration > is replaced with potential.]
At least, it was decided what to choose.
「Divinity < Acceleration > is used.」
「All abilities of challenger Han Seong-yoon are greatly accelerated and become faster.」
After acquiring Divinity, I was able to know what this Divinity < Acceleration > was.
‘Is it really just the power to increase speed without doing anything else?’
All kinds of abilities move at a speed that transcends human knowledge, and even the movement speed of the body is no longer human.
But at best it was only worth that much.
It was not at the level of functioning as a kind of concept area, and it seemed impossible to use it widely.
In fact, I could see that this is not a very meaningful concept that can be applied and carried around in an always-activated form.
[Still, it’s better than nothing. ]
And.
[God of remorse. That’s it. Let’s go to the place where another warlock is. ]
The moment I turned my head and asked the God of Remorse for a guide.
“Heh heh heh heh heh…”
The god of remorse with black dead eyes smiled dejectedly.
It’s like being alive feels like despair.
Only then did I realize
「Use of Divine < Remorse > will be stopped due to the end of time.」
「Use of Divine < Remorse >, the manipulated reality area will return to its original
state .」 disappears.」
[ …Can I just kill myself? ]
[ No. ]
[ ….]
Now the time has come to obtain the Divine < Remorse >.
