433. Butterfly effect (5)
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-!
The overwhelming divine light from the sky fell in a straight line to the ground, exuding a tremendous presence.
Even if there are strong people called ancient gods in this universe, there won’t be many beings who can scatter divine powers to that level.
Even if it wasn’t a system message that appeared in front of my eyes, I already noticed what kind of existence it was.
「…」 「
The dragon god activates the special divine authority ‘incarnation’ and appears on the western front .」
.」
Dragon god.
Even among the rulers of this universe, who have transformed themselves into divinity and concept itself and reached immortality in the hierarchy of divinity, she was regarded as a being with the power to change the way.
After all, the God of Darkness, the Demon God, and the Dragon God are all beings that are no different from the history of the living universe, even among ancient gods.
‘This is what the hell…’
He sobbed as he watched a sandstorm take place on the western front, where the gods fought and turned into a desert by an overwhelming divine force.
‘What the hell happened?’
It is a power beyond common sense.
Originally, the high-ranking deities and formal deities that this side saw had to use incarnations and exert only much weaker power than the main body when appearing somewhere.
Even more so, even after becoming an ancient deity called the head of the universe, unlike the main body, the incarnated body would only be able to handle power below a certain level.
‘What is this again…’
But…
‘Is it possible for an incarnation made up of a portion of the dragon god’s power to scatter such a powerful presence…?’
So what is that?
Hard———! It’s just that the overwhelming divine light builds an incarnation that resembles the dragon god’s main body
, but to be able to scatter such a tremendous presence and awe
…
Doesn’t it mean that the incarnation of the dragon god that has appeared surpasses the power of most ancient gods?
‘Something is definitely wrong.’
In an instant, reason and instinct derived the same answer.
‘In the original history, it is unlikely that the dragon god suddenly appeared on the western front during the war of the gods.’
In fact, it was felt that a change had occurred in many ways from the original history in the fact that the dragon god was about to appear as an incarnation on the western front.
‘If I didn’t exist in this war of the gods like now, at the time the gods of darkness, demons, or dragon gods participated, the orderly camp would have been defeated without even resisting.’
At most, there is no way that a god of creation, a god of law, or a god of miracles could endure such a catastrophe.
‘Perhaps the reason why the dragon god appeared on the western front right now is because of me, not somewhere else.’
Not even that.
‘I can’t even guess why and for what reason the Dragon God suddenly appeared on the Western Front.’
At first glance, there is no reason why a dragon god should appear on the western front with an incarnation.
‘Damn it…’
It was hard to guess where and how the twist in the story, which was different from the original history, began.
ㅡIn the first place, since each of those ancient deities is a monster that has carved its own divinity and concept into the universe, wouldn’t it be unaware that it is itself a ‘fake’?
Is that why?
– Do you really not notice anything until the very end that this fake world created by the Tower of Trials is a cage made just for you?
Suddenly, I remembered the story Dam Chun-wu told me.
– As time goes by, even a trivial action like the flapping of a butterfly’s wings can change more than you think.
…the butterfly effect.
―Whether that would be good for you or bad for you, I can’t say anything.
From the stage created by the Tower of Trials to the ancient deities, everything might have been twisted at the point where it was perfectly reproduced.
―The only thing I can say is that if the Tower of Trials did something like this to you, there would surely be hardships and hardships corresponding to it.
Somehow, now, for some reason, I could feel the realization that Dam Chun-wu had said that so slowly.
―That is the principle of the Tower of Trials.
From the beginning, this was just a game and a gamble with the life of high risk, high return, neither luck nor misfortune.
‘Damn it.’
It was confusing.
How many of the fake ancient deities created by the Tower of Trials caused such an accident, and how far did they diverge from the original history?
Now, everything that will happen in the future is no different from the dice that have fallen from the grip of chaos beyond the scope of prediction and control.
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!
…But nonetheless, seeing the divine light piercing down in the middle of the western front, it was possible to be certain of one thing.
‘Not only the high-ranking deities and official deities on the western front, but even I could die if I made a mistake.’
death.
Even when fighting the god of birth, one of the ancient deities, the crisis of death without a hint of hope, which was not felt so greatly, is approaching so close that it can be touched with the skin.
Well, if you think about it with common sense, this side became an ancient deity and achieved conceptual immortality, so it was certain that there would be no death in any case, but the ominousness did not disappear.
‘Even becoming immortal by transforming into the concept of divinity itself doesn’t mean you have perfect immortality.’
In the first place, there was no possibility that this side would die.
‘For example, if the dragon god has any power that can kill or destroy even an ancient deity, I could die right here without doing anything.’
The choice was one of two.
Currently, there are quite a lot of high-ranking and official deities that I brought with me on the western front.
Either use the high-ranking deities and official deities that this side brought as bait to run away, or go to the middle of the western front and make some sort of negotiation.
“…”
and then.
“…under.”
The moment I felt that out of the two options, my heart leaned heavily towards wanting to run away from the dragon god.
“…You’re going to run away?”
Kwaaaak-.
“…Don’t talk bullshit.”
As I watched the divine light pierce the Western Front, I bit my lips hard enough to bleed and felt uncontrollable rage.
‘okay. Dark gods, demons, and dragon gods are real monsters. Even if they are ancient deities, only they have the level of power that is different from the Ark.’
Even if it was just for a moment, I felt annoyance and uncontrollable anger that I had the desire to run away on my own.
‘So…’
Isn’t that right?
‘whatever?’
you want to run away
How long do we have to repeat that plan for the future in front of the strong?
And how strong can you become if you foretell the possibility of victory and defeat without doing anything just because you feel the danger of death several times while climbing the tower of trials?
Unlike the time in the Tower of Trials when he did not even know his own aspirations and just wished to advance, he now has what he wants.
‘I didn’t even know that from the beginning.’
transcendent.
What one wants for oneself is to be reborn as a transcendent being who cannot be approached not only by high-ranking deities or official deities, but also by ancient deities.
And as a result, it is necessary to dramatically increase the power that this side has, so it is natural to take that much risk in order to gain overwhelming power.
‘I won’t run away anymore.’
Not to mention, if even the Tower of Trials or most of the ancient gods couldn’t easily ignore the power this side possessed, it would be absurd to run away without even thinking about challenging the Dragon God here.
“…”
It wasn’t even worth worrying about.
Even if the Dragon God on the other side could harbor murderous intentions towards us for whatever reason, nothing would change.
As it was, I saw that the divine light was slowly fading in the center of the Western Front, and I continued my steps.
“Shall we go?”
and.
Jijijijijijijijik—!
The moment when the spaces of the world collide with one another through the black magic that this side used, forming a single movement passage.
【Welcoming Vortex】
In the blink of an eye, the magical whirlpool made of black magic swallowed me like it was opening its mouth and led me to a faraway space.
***
In an instant, by means of the black magic [Tending Vortex], he was transported to the middle of the Western Front beyond space and space.
Chak-.
‘This far.’
In fact, it was impossible to approach it with black magic because of the overwhelming divine light that the dragon god’s incarnation descended and scattered from beyond this point.
―You…
is that why?
-Are you serious?
Suddenly, the blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword vibrated, and before long, Damcheonwu’s voice filled with fear and anxiety was heard in his ears.
-You really want to go there?
Dam Chun-wu’s voice contained heavy emotions, as if he was tearing down a person who was walking on his own limbs.
―…Don’t go. And then, in the end, you will die. without achieving either of them.
He spat out the words as if he were miserable.
―…You guys have already thought about it at least once, haven’t you?
He seemed to be scolding him for why he was trying to go into the depths alone instead of escaping from the western front.
―…Even if the ancient deity is immortal, if it is sealed separately from him or if the concept divinity itself is incapacitated, it’s not like you won’t die.
It wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.
―Perhaps it can meet an absurdly terrible ending that cannot even be compared with the death of ordinary mortals.
Know.
―Still, did you mean to go there?
In fact, as Dam Chun-wu said, if I fought and lost without even having a chance to talk or compromise with the dragon god, there was a high possibility that I would be permanently sealed.
―How can you pretend not to know that this universe could end up being sealed until it disappears, dead, or worse than that?
Not even that.
If that’s the case in this war of the gods, you’ll be defeated with nothing more to do and you’ll have to be locked up until the ordeal ends in failure.
As long as the penalty for failing to clear the ordeal is set to ‘death’ in the system of the Tower of Trials, it is impossible to say with certainty that even the concept of immortality this side has will not be broken.
“It’s like the worst ending…”
But…
“That’s a very interesting sound.”
What does that mean?
“Worst?”
Before I knew it, I answered with a cold voice while holding the sword wave of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword tightly.
“—Wouldn’t it be the worst ending to die without ever becoming a transcendentalist while quietly withdrawing from this place?”
Jerk-jerk-.
“I would have said it in the pantheon. I won’t let anyone stand on top of me anymore. I didn’t say that to bluff.”
It was worth it.
Originally, what this side wanted was not to become an ancient deity through the divine hierarchy, but to reach the level of a transcendental being beyond that.
Even more so, if you think about it, isn’t it actually that strange that I had to risk my life?
“From the day I started climbing the Tower of Trials until now, there has never been a time when it was okay not to risk my life.”
In fact, since the Tower of Trials chose me and gave me the supernormal ability called necromancy, I have been fighting for my life over and over again.
“I have no intention of stopping here.”
In the Tower of Trials, he did not avoid so many battles and faced them from the front, so he was able to become strong up to this point.
“Even if my death awaits me there, if I have to go, I will go.”
So…
“Absolutely.”
If that’s what we have to do, even if it’s a life-and-death fight with the Dragon God, it doesn’t change the fact that we have to go.
―Crazy bastard…
Well, maybe it was because he climbed the tower of ordeal to some extent and came to terms with me, Dam Chun-wu didn’t say anything anymore.
-Anyway, I’m not crazy.
After saying that, he made the blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword tremble once and then proceeded to do as he pleased.
-her. do whatever you want. Anyway, have you ever listened to what I said? Run wild wherever you want. like you
“hmm. Even if you don’t say so, that’s what I meant in the first place… Maybe we don’t have to fight that big.”
―What is that… you don’t have to fight? If the dragon god even sent an incarnation to this western front, a fierce battle would unfold, risking life and death….
“Isn’t that the story of when I didn’t explain my situation to the Dragon God?”
I replied to him with a smile as if I was on the verge of death.
“I know the Dragon God because I met him a few times. She’s not that belligerent. Rather, was it not cheerful and moderate outwardly? More so than other ancient deities.”
-…hmm. Yeah, come to think of it, I had to treat you with a single, single smile. However, there is no way that the dragon god is the same as the dragon god reproduced in the war of the gods. What were you thinking about doing that?
“I will convince you.”
In fact, isn’t it a story that will only be established when I assume the worst case that I will fight with my life.
“Well, unlike the other ancient deities, the dragon god isn’t so warlike and doesn’t speak well.”
The Dragon God, who had met for the first time in the past at the Tower of Trials and formed a deep relationship, should have always favored this side and showed optimistic cheerfulness.
“Perhaps if we can find a compromise where we can both stop fighting here to some extent, the dragon god won’t try to fight too hard with me.”
In short, fighting the Dragon God was something that would happen in the end.
Perhaps the incarnation of the Dragon God that appeared on the Western Front could be passed over at least once if you tried persuasion and compromise through repeated conversations.
To this side, her cheerfulness and sanity were something that even that exhilarating Demon God couldn’t compare to.
“Yongsin. She’s not that bad. Rather, he is like a benefactor who has given me a lot.”
But…
“There’s no way that good-natured Dragon God would stop by to kill me without questioning and answering…”
It was then.
[…]
Before the system message could appear in front of my eyes, something deep blue thunder fell from the sky and exploded beyond my vision.
───!
「Divine < Thunder Rain > is activated, and a rain of thunder shoots out, causing permanent damage to the concept of divinity.」
Supersonic speed.
The moment when you are sure that the conceptual divinities within your body will be destroyed just by being touched by the raindrops of thunder made up of the supernatural ability of that divinity.
In fact, even some of the ancient deities, let alone quite a few high-ranking deities, couldn’t react. In reality, a thunderstorm that was so fast that it was close to sub-light speed drew a line and brushed the side of the head.
—.
Even the sound echoes very late.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
He had only managed to evade it by using all the overwhelming stats he had accumulated through necromancy and numerous skills and powers.
‘ah?’
Doesn’t that mean that if this side reacted even one step later, they would have been hit directly by the thunder that destroyed the concept of divinity, and would have suffered permanent divinity damage even if it wasn’t death.
‘What is this…’
And then.
‘A preemptive strike?’
On the western front, there is probably only one entity capable of pushing me, one of the ancient deities, to this extent.
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh-!!
Chak-.
In response, I looked at the being that had landed from the sky to the earth in a short period of time and completed a tremendous divine hierarchy.
“….”
A silver-haired girl with two horns like a mythical dragon growing on her forehead, which somehow gave off a very familiar atmosphere, was looking at me while lightly descending from the air.
‘What the hell is this…’
That means one thing.
“The Dragon God stares at you with eyes mixed with cold anger.”
[ …you. disrespectful From a while ago until now, why did you run here while glancing at me from afar? feel bad ]
It was simple.
[ …don’t make a pitiful face that makes you want to pretend you know it annoyedly anymore, just get out of the way. ]
That Dragon God in front of you is the owner of a disposition that is different from the Dragon God you know.
[ …I’m tired. ]
The arrogance and boredom unique to any absolute that stems from the purely overwhelming divinity and the resulting power flow out to an extent that cannot be concealed.
[ …I don’t really want to have any interest or interest in trivial, boring, weak things like you guys. ]
That’s not all.
[ …I’ll give you 10 seconds. Move. And don’t ever appear in front of me again. don’t even look don’t even be conscious Then I’ll give you a chance to live. ]
She looked this way and continued in a tone of contempt and annoyance, as if she had seen some nasty insect flying.
[But instead, if you don’t listen to me and get out of there after 10 seconds, I’ll pay the price I deserve. ]
A reaction that is no different from a person who sometimes frowns when he sees insects like ants entangled on the street, or does not want to be interested or concerned.
[Insignificant short-lived species.]
“…”
Realized.
‘ah-.’
Persuasion or compromise…
it was nonsense.
In fact, unlike the Dragon Gods of the outer world I know, he is so authoritative and arrogant that he is not even a conversation partner.
At the point I noticed that, I had a vague realization that the worst-case scenario would unfold in the center of this Western Front.
‘The scenario that I thought was the worst from the beginning is coming true…’
It was simple.
Originally, the Dragon God was one of the three ancient deities who were called the lords of this universe and who were said to have no opponents.
At this moment, I was destined to survive and win against the real monster with overwhelming power among the ancient gods.
‘Damn it…’
Damn it.
