Episode 454 ‘Hah…?’
Harman’s spirit wave was felt, but seeing him aim his sword, it was clearly the gods who took the lead. The gods who were trying to encroach on Harmon’s soul within his body changed direction for a moment and revealed their fighting intentions to Logan.
Perhaps the reason it had been moving according to Harmon’s will so far was simply because it was concentrating on devouring his soul.
‘But we can’t fight here.’
widely.
[I destroyed Zibrik’s soul. Don’t those who call themselves gods even know that?]
Logan’s spirit wave, containing a firm will, was transmitted to Harman and the souls of the gods.
Pure sincerity, not even a single lie.
But the gods seemed to have no intention of talking.
[Don’t be funny. Zibrik is an immortal soul who has attained divinity.]
[The power of your wish may change this world, but it cannot invade divinity.]
Flash.
The moment when the light emitted from the tip of Harman’s sword covered the entire area.
The golden light that bloomed inside soared through the silver waves.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
A corner of the forest suddenly turned into powder and scattered.
A clean disappearance without even a speck of dust rising.
In the light of destruction, Logan, protected by brilliant golden light, slowly walked out.
[I clearly destroyed Gibrik Kassel’s sacred relics and shattered his soul. [You probably know that what I say is not a lie, right?]
Youngpa continuously turns towards the other person.
The golden light shimmering within the red eyes showed that Logan had raised his soul power to the extreme.
A message delivered by the soul, not just words. The true intention contained within it also had no choice but to be revealed.
Logan’s intention was to show his determination to continue the conversation somehow, but the gods only became more angry at that sight.
[Zibrik must have retreated! He too is only half-hearted, unaware of the power of wish.]
[We are different.]
As expected… I guess so.
The Spiritual Wave of the Gods once again confirmed what Logan had suspected.
The only problem was that there was hardly any solution to this situation.
Flashing.
Quaaaaaaaaa!
A beam of light covers my son-in-law again.
‘Damn it.’
That beam of light contained a similar type of power as the great magic that once nearly destroyed Kyle Castle.
Although it cannot be compared in scale, the power of extinction is enough to erase an individual.
If it is still this powerful, what will happen if Harman is completely consumed by God?
It was a force so strong that even Logan couldn’t help but feel anxious.
But despite that, the situation wasn’t bad.
Jijijijijijijing.
Kwakwakwakwakwa.
The power was splitting left and right centered on the golden auror blade at the tip of the sword that Logan held out in front of him, and was only turning the elusive forest into powder.
Logan’s complexion turned slightly red.
‘…do.’
I wasn’t using the light cleavage that consumed the power of desire like back then. There is no need to reverse cause and effect, it is just blocking the power poured out by the gods as ‘equal’.
The possibilities that I became convinced of in Ruspelheim have clearly blossomed at this moment.
‘I can do it.’
A way to raise the level of the soul by gathering the power of wishes realized through the Auror Master’s domination of the battlefield.
Add to that the contradictory energy utilization process that the gods showed unintentionally, and you quickly came close to reaching the limits of being an Auror Master.
Compared to before, it could be said that the level had risen one level.
‘No, maybe even more than this…’
Therefore, rather than persuading them in the pouring power, Logan focused more on his eyes. As I watched the attacks coming from the gods through Harman’s body, I was going through an incredibly strange scene.
‘Like using magic with force…’
Although he was holding a sword, it was no longer a swordsmanship or anything else. They are just using Harman’s power and Harman’s body to attack them in their own way.
It was definitely more powerful than the attack shown by the emperor, and in terms of high-level magic, it was an attack of class 8.
‘I can’t believe something like this is possible…’
It was a surprising technique in a different sense from the use of energy that transformed the Force into the power of life.
Logan tried to focus more and examine the process in detail. To steal the techniques of ancient souls that cannot be found in this world and were said to have transcended the level of godmen and become gods.
‘If only I could understand this perfectly…’
All my wishes could come true.
I couldn’t help but become greedy.
Wooooow.
Sassasasa.
The attack gradually became faster, but in the end, it became just a pure white light of destruction, covering all directions without any gaps. The pressure that felt as if my soul would fall apart just by holding on and breaking apart was constantly increasing and weighing down my entire body.
In the process, Logan’s defense also gradually became stronger. It is becoming stronger as it withstands the barrage of attacks, as if it is strengthening its ranks.
That touched the hearts of the gods.
[Is it true… there is a reason why Zibrik was selected as the incarnation?]
Hmm…?
A strange sense of disconnection was felt momentarily within the divine wave.
That awakened Logan’s reason, which had been intensely focused.
But before I could even figure out the identity of the gap, the situation changed suddenly.
[…Even if this body is destroyed, it must be destroyed here.]
[It’s so easy to say that you are not an apostle…]
[Give up your greed and face the situation Aria.]
[…I agree. It’s a shame, but there’s nothing we can do.]
The will of the gods was exchanged almost in an instant.
And soon.
[Annihilate!!!]
A loud shout struck his soul, and he felt the souls of the gods expanding within Harman’s body for an instant.
Until now, it felt like a giant was forcing its body to avoid destroying a small space.
It was a radical and violent expansion of the soul that felt the will to no longer care for that space, that is, Harman’s body.
‘what…!?’
Only at that moment did Logan feel a sense of crisis again.
‘Holy shit!’
Intoxicated with the joy of rising status, I forgot about the situation for a moment and was just doing research.
A sense of omnipotence due to the recent rise in status.
I was so absorbed in the excitement that I forgot what I had to do first.
‘Such a foolish thing…’ It’s
like taking untimely leisure in the face of a powerful enemy.
‘Since when have I been so successful?’
I couldn’t help but curse at myself.
I hastily activated the trait, but it was not enough.
I only confirmed that the difference in power was so extreme even in the space where soul and soul power collide, even in infinitely accelerated time.
Even if he had the ability to jump over walls, it seemed like he wouldn’t be able to handle either of them.
Just when the despair caused by that distant gap was trying to dominate my mind, a familiar voice was heard from the pure white light that covered the entire area.
[Logan… Your Majesty!]
A knight with blond hair, blue eyes, and an ordinary face, like a nice-looking local guy.
However, the illusion of Harmon Killerbrew, the strongest knight who once competed for supremacy on the continent, suddenly jumped out from the pure white background.
[Lord Harman?]
[Sorry. I didn’t intend for this situation to happen, but I don’t think I have time to properly apologize.]
[Huh?]
Just as he said that, the knight’s illusion repeated blinking as if it would disappear at any moment.
[I will give you just one opportunity. Please don’t miss it.]
[What…?]
How did you do it?
Harman grinned at the question he could not express before continuing.
[Ilia did it first. Then me too….]
Sreuk.
The moment when the knight’s illusion finally disappears completely.
The situation has changed drastically.
Flash!
The scene of the forest seemed to appear before my eyes, which were all white, and then light burst out from the tip of Harman’s sword again, making my vision white for an instant.
When the background shows Harmon’s face becoming full of wrinkles and his gorgeous blonde hair turning white.
A huge, uncontrollable energy struck Logan in an instant, without him even having time to escape.
It seemed like no.
If only Harman’s right hand, which held out the sword, had not turned into powder and been crushed at that moment.
[Such a foolish bastard!]
[Foolish…!]
The light of destruction that poured down with the shouts of the gods was instantly bent vertically and soared into the sky.
Oh my gosh!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa.
And in front of the storm of destruction, Logan, with a stony face, summoned a golden giant’s sword over his ordinary iron sword. The soul, which has been upgraded again through characteristic Up, has gathered the power to reach the extreme level that a creature, not a human, can rise to, albeit a beat late.
And just before that unfathomable force collides.
In the infinitely accelerated time, Logan tapped the soul of the person who created this miraculous moment.
[Lord Harman!]
[Finish. It’s not the end he was hoping for, but…]
Has the soul of the gods, which seemed to expand endlessly, now left his body?
The owner of the Light of Destruction, or rather the knight who became the conduit through which that power passed, was seen smiling with an old face for a moment.
[…If I have one regret.]
Harman delivered his final message with a sad smile.
[If possible, please destroy all the sacred relics of the gods. So that no other good victims emerge. Please, please, please.]
These are the words I shouted the whole time I was running endlessly without reason.
I was able to realize its meaning again.
Crack.
Gritting his teeth, Logan responded to Harmon’s words by striking down the large sword he was holding high.
Flashing.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The golden sword that cut through the torrent of light fell directly on Harman’s head.
The moment when the light that seemed to pierce the sky opened a huge hole in the cloud-filled sky.
dump.
The old knight’s body fell on the spot.
And Logan, who had exerted all his strength for an instant, also sat down next to him with a gaunt look on his face. A bitter smile appeared on his lips.
It was the smile of someone who had succeeded in severing the link between the gods, the holy relics, and Harman instead of destroying Harman’s body.
It was also the smile of a loser who could not save Harmon’s soul. The spirit of the knight who once competed to be the strongest on the continent was fading away, just like it had been before with Saint Ilia.
“Damn it…”
But at that moment.
[How can this be… Your Majesty, what are you…]
“Hmm?”
[This might be…. Please take me to the saint! Quickly!]
Logan’s expression changed once again at another message left by the fading soul.
* * * The Holy Knights who were chasing after Harman could not help but be embarrassed by the unexpected situation.
Several hours had passed since the chase was interrupted by an unknown superhuman.
All of the priests witnessed tremendous holy power rising into the sky along Harman’s expected progress path.
A tremendous wave that shakes the souls of all those who possess divine power.
When the priests who had stopped and worshiped for a long time finally arrived at the place, more than half a day had already passed.
“God’s will is here!”
“Declare it as a holy land!”
“Worship!”
A trace that would bring old priests to tears even with what little holy power they had left.
They followed the traces left by the gods, bowing once every three steps.
But at that point, all that was left in front of them was the forest that had completely disappeared and the whereabouts of Harman, of whom there was no trace.
And based on that point, the temple’s evaluation of Harman changed again.
“He may truly be an apostle of God.”
A voice from those who were reluctant to hit Harmon from the beginning.
Of course, those who had strictly followed the temple’s will, including Stefan, could not tolerate those words.
“Nothing more than an apostate!”
“Do not forget the sins he committed!”
“Then how are you going to explain this sanctuary right now?”
However, as the noisy priests said, the clear traces of God could never be denied.
The place where their fingers point: nine concentric circles carved on the ground where everything has disappeared.
Even the aftereffects of the enormous sacred power spewing out from around that concentric circle were still reverberating everywhere.
“The Pope wasn’t murdered, he just disappeared!”
“The Apostle may not be related to his disappearance.”
Public opinion began to turn around the old priests, who were a step above the holy knights, who could be called fanatics.
And both those who thought that Harman was an apostate and those who thought that he was the coming of an apostle had no choice but to reach an agreement in the end.
“We have to find it right away!”
“Find it somehow!”
“Use all the temple’s resources to find his traces!”
It was a moment when one of the great forces that control the world took another vain step.
