Episode 491:
The energy flowing through Igmun’s blood sword was unusual.
‘Did he grow up in a short period of time?’
If I had to pick the archduke who grew the most while dealing with Lucifer, it was definitely Igmun.
Although it has a power similar to ‘predation’ called ‘absorption’.
Putting that aside, the fact that Igmun faced Lucifer Noname without fear greatly helped his growth.
‘Easier said than done.’
This was possible because of his absolute determination to take on the other person’s power even if he died.
‘Does it mean that overcoming the catastrophe wasn’t just a coincidence?’
I brought it down with my own hands and am now directly involved in its growth.
‘It’s an ironic relationship.’
With that thought in mind, I stopped the actions of the guy who was looking at the four absolutes, including Loki.
“Igmun. Allowing is one thing.”
The vampire lord ground his teeth at Taehyun’s words.
[Guy… I guess he has the right to make a claim, right?]
I bought time against Noname on behalf of the Elven.
If other archdukes had been there, their existence would have suffered a serious blow.
I didn’t like the idea of calling myself a bait, but I was the only one among the archdukes who could play that role.
so.
The right to two of the four absolutes.
It was a claim worthy of its own merits.
‘It’s not wrong.’
If it had been the opposite, Taehyun would have argued that it was his natural right.
Maybe he mustered up the courage to give up three out of four.
but.
The absolute people in front of me are too strong to hand over to Igmun now.
‘It’s a waste.’
Loki Heimdall Roan, the absolute ruler of the 7 heavens.
A set of 10 heavenly beings.
He had already taken away most of their spiritual power and coveted their existence power as well.
To be honest, what is in front of you is like an empty vessel that can no longer be called absolute.
It’s no different from a piece of meat that made up the ‘absolute’ guys.
Even if Igmun uses his power to take that life, it will not have much effect.
But predation is different.
‘The question is whether my exhausted body can handle these.’
As I thought about it, a new suggestion popped into my head.
“Igmun. “If you think about it, it wouldn’t be a waste for you at all.”
[….]
“I will have to eat all four of the absolute ones.”
Even before coming here, they said they would give me a reward for the bait.
Igmun’s red eyes twitched at the sudden change of tone.
It was the stage right before the noble pride of being an archduke was expressed in anger.
[You have to hit me once here….]
“Instead, I will hand over the corresponding power.”
[What nonsense?]
I’ve been fooled by your sweet talk more than once.
Igmun, who said that, is about to unleash his blood-red magic.
“absorption. No matter how great the power is, there will be losses in the process of taking these dying guys. “Unlike that Jormungand guy, you can’t fully accept divine power, right?”
[What do you want to say….]
“It’s simple.”
Instead of taking the body imbued with divine power for yourself.
He said that he would hand over all the magical power gained in the process to Igmun.
“I have the spiritual power. You take all the magical power. “Not a bad offer.”
[….]
Igmun could not give an easy answer.
Taehyun Kim.
The power of the Underworld King possessed by his contractor.
I am well aware of the potential of that power.
We know that the King of the Underworld used his power to devour even the Master of the Heavenly World.
The guy who was an ordinary human being.
That’s why I stand shoulder to shoulder with the Archduke now.
[Are you saying you will only take divine power?]
“Yes. Even if it is divine power, it is bound to be accompanied by an increase in magical power. “It is not impossible for us today to share that level of power.”
[Indeed.]
Predation and absorption.
With the control abilities of the two great dukes at their peak, the Absolutes would have to be no better than dead bones.
[Huh…. Hahahah…. Good. I allow it.]
Igmun answered cheerfully, as if he had made the suggestion himself.
Taehyun smiled brightly.
If you feast on the Absolute at the same time, you can achieve a considerable increase in spiritual power.
‘Maybe a new skill can be registered.’
This is a fact confirmed through Horus and Anubis.
The problem is that Taehyun’s condition is not perfect.
Also, if you eat all four Absolutes at once, there is a good chance that you will get an upset stomach.
That was the reason Igmun was brought here in the first place.
The idea is to spread the risk by using one absolute person as bait.
‘Anyway, this guy is simple too.’
Although he sarcastically calls Orgal a fool who only knows battle and Typhon a brainless fool.
Igmun also showed an equally simple side when it came to his growth.
Although it seems like he himself doesn’t know.
“Then let’s begin.”
Tiring.
[Skill Ataraxia (???) has been activated.]
[Unique skill Predation (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Beneath the darkness that had fallen, a dark red swamp was created at the feet of the four absolutes.
Right next to me, Igmun used blood fire.
Just like the archdukes outside did.
The power of Taehyeon and Igmun resonated.
Kiiiii-.
Kwaaaa-.
[Ki Kim Tae-hyun… let’s make a deal… let’s make a deal…!!]
Loki, who was watching with a stern expression, urgently shouted.
After listening to the conversation between Taehyeon and Igmun, they realized what fate they would face.
‘You have to live.’
Although they were three absolutes who, unlike themselves, could not even move their mouths properly.
I think the thoughts are similar.
I saw Set nodding his head without even moving properly.
‘No longer… Lucifer is the problem.’
A fragment of the One God awakened in the underworld.
Set must also have realized that he had to report this fact to Osiris.
at that time.
[Do not build it.]
Pupupupupuk.
Igmun’s blood sword is stuck in your hands.
Sigh. Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Chains of restraint wrapped around their bodies.
[…?]
Ig-moon looked at Tae-hyeon as the chains wrapped around his body following the absolute ones.
“Don’t worry. “I’ve done enough experiments with Gilper.”
[joy. You don’t have to connect it in any way, but with the power of the original spirit…]
“Ah, do you prefer this over chains?”
Taehyun poured in and released his purple magic power.
Grumbling. Grumble.
Wow!!
Tentacles that looked exactly like Rosaria’s wrapped around Igmun’s body.
[bloke!! This dirty thing right now….]
Tup.
Taehyun covered Igmun’s mouth with his tentacles.
“You say this is the most efficient?”
With those words, Taehyun turned his gaze to the Absolutes.
[The guy outside is something that Ha-gye can handle…]
It is not something that can be handled.
In the meantime, Loki was shouting.
“do not worry. “I plan to deal with that guy somehow.”
Tup.
Another tentacle covered Loki’s mouth.
“It was hard to get over to the lower world.”
I’ll eat it so you don’t get sick.
Taehyun whispered in Loki’s ear.
Those were the last words.
Ugh.
Kwaduk!!
The maw of predation chewed and swallowed your absolute self.
Tiring.
[Devouring a gigantic being.]
[Devouring a gigantic will.]
[Divine power increases.]
[Immense magical energy penetrates.]
Taehyeon did not push away the bloody magical energy that was swirling around his body.
Kiiiiii-.
Keying-.
Kiiiiii-.
Kaaaaaa-.
The magic stones of the two princes rotated as if in resonance.
The power of existence of the four absolutes consumed through predation.
They are quickly extinguishing the influx of divine power using their respective powers.
Igmun, whose mouth was blocked by tentacles, groaned at the force of the thrust.
‘Stay strong.’
As Igmun’s moans became harsher, his divine power was being digested faster.
and.
By the time Taehyun was able to enjoy the feeling of satisfaction and fullness from the bodies of the Absolutes, which were digested faster than expected.
Tiring.
[The unique skill Predation (???) adapts to the new power.]
[The Archduke’s body is reconstructed.]
[The Absolute’s body is reconstructed.]
[A new skill is registered.]
‘Huh?’
A message that exceeded expectations emerged.
* * *
[Contrary to words, the limit is clear.]
Noname said this while looking at the fallen archdukes in front of him.
Except for Lucifer, these are creatures that were dismissed as nothing more than fun toys.
Except for the Elven who will become the new vessel, they are thought of as cute pets.
Noname confirmed the condition of the body where the cracks had accelerated.
[You can be proud.]
Orgal Jormungand Hazard Typhon Gilfer, who was trampled to the point where recovery is impossible.
Their resistance was impressive enough.
His gaze turned to the all-out fallen angel.
[Lucifer. God’s child Why don’t you stop resisting now?]
[Shut up… Shut up…]
[This is truly unreasonable pride.]
Kwajik.
Noname plunged the holy spear into Lucifer’s chest.
Rattling.
Lucifer, with one knee bent, tried to pull out the holy spear stuck in his body.
[I will postpone the disposition for a little while.]
Noname turned his attention to the two remaining archdukes.
An elven who supported with the power of great magic.
Rosaria moved Taehyun Kim and Igmun to personal space.
The two archdukes unleashed their magic power with stern expressions.
[This is useless resistance. Why not just take them out? Or will you obediently give up your fairy body?]
[Someone like X is saying shit.]
[…This is unspeakable profanity.] This
is the moment when Noname responded.
Tsuzzzzzzzz.
Suddenly, Igmun, brimming with blood-red magic, appeared in front of Rosaria.
In that brief moment, the power of existence was amplified.
Without needing to understand the situation, Igmun rushed in, swinging his blood sword.
It took a while for a plausible battle to unfold.
Kwasik.
Igmun’s arm, engulfed in brilliance, was bent abnormally and exploded.
Also like it was with Lucifer.
Kwasik!!
The holy spear pierced Igmun’s abdomen.
Tsuzuzu…. Tsuzuzu….
Igmun used his power while holding the spear that pierced his body.
[That’s great persistence. Where did Kim Tae-hyun go and you came out?]
This is the moment when Noname, who said that, is about to pull out the head of the Vampire Lord.
[I said…cough…didn’t I….the original ghost…is a bait….]
[…?]
The moment I felt something strange.
Ssssss.
Igmun’s appearance disappeared and Taehyun appeared in his place.
[Rosaria!!]
At Taehyun’s shout, Rosaria released all her saved magical power.
Colorless magical power supported that power.
[Only for a moment!!]
Listening to her voice screaming.
Tiring.
[Skill Eye of the Dream King (???) has been strengthened.]
[Skill Ataraxia (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
[Skill Memorize (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Brightness flashed within Taehyun’s red eyes.
* * *
In the beginning there was a great light.
The great light realized that its mere presence drained the entire existence.
Thus, a planet was created.
Then, they created life forms that inhabit the planet.
Beings with great innate power of existence called themselves Elyos and made up the upper world, while beings whose power of existence was slightly inferior were called monsters and made up the lower world.
They are half-baked beings who are neither here nor there.
Insect-like beings were abandoned and abandoned in Middle Earth.
