Vicious Abomination believed he had superior intelligence compared to others.
In fact, he was indeed outstanding. What Vicious Abomination considered intelligence was the ability to hide himself while only showing his strengths.
That’s why, despite living in the society of the Mines, he maintained a polite deanor as a mber of that society.
Ironically, when he transford into a Mine, this helped him retain his intelligence.
That’s why he despised the simple-minded Overlord, who was nothing but brute force.
However, there was one thing he had to acknowledge.
The fact that with that brute force, he could destroy all space and sever communication with the outside world.
When in the position of a great evil, could can see many things.
Vicious Abomination.
The one called the Overlord always replied like this when Vicious Abomination viewed him pitifully:
“You’re the one who’s pitiful. If you have a strong body, there’s no need to overwork your brain.”
After saying this,
Vicious Abomination opened his eyes.
He felt sothing ‘divide’ the space around him.
He had experienced this a few tis before.
The man called Vicious Abomination, reveling in his power, had strategically set up a technique of space destruction to prevent his enemies from escaping.
‘No, this is…’
This was on a much higher level.
It wasn’t just a brute force destruction of space. It was sothing far more refined.
It felt as if the space itself had been completely severed from this place.
Eeeek.
He applied force. The darkness that had consud the light spread in all directions.
Vicious Abomination believed in his superior intelligence. That’s why he didn’t want to engage in such brute behavior.
If his life weren’t on the line, he wouldn’t have resorted to such actions.
‘They are dangerous.’
The black, arrogant power that denied everything, even the strength granted to him by the beings of the outer realm, denied even itself.
This was an extrely serious matter.
The existence known as the Great Evil was not easily diminished.
They were beings that did not die, no matter how many tis they were killed. The Thousand Sorcerer’s eclipse spell had killed Vicious Abomination dozens of tis.
But it only killed him dozens of tis. The body granted by the gods did not allow even death.
The body he had desired by betraying the god he trusted was now fatally flawed by that power.
Eeeeeeeek.
Space scread. The light devoured by darkness swelled up as much as it could.
It was a simple thod.
Gather power and release it efficiently.
Nothing more, just a release of power without technique or finesse.
It was utterly simple, yet strong because of that simplicity.
Focused on a single point.
He shot the darkness that had consud the light toward the broken space.
Eeeeeeeeeek—!!!
Space scread. Cracks began to form in the sky.
But that was all.
It stopped at just the cracks.
The boundary distinguished everything.
It divided the space and ti of all things. To say the surroundings were divided ant exactly that.
The Energy of Defying Heaven.
If that which denies everything is Lee Seo-ha’s absolute spear,
The boundary could be considered Lee Seo-ha’s absolute shield.
Tap.
Lee Seo-ha divided the space.
He looked at Vicious Abomination with an expressionless gaze.
‘What should I do?’
Killing him would be the best option. However, there must be a significant reason why Vicious Abomination appeared here.
What could it be?
Lee Seo-ha thought.
The most likely possibility was sothing too terrible to consider.
‘I hope it’s not that.’
The fact that Vicious Abomination had co here.
Most likely, he had done it. Using his own life as collateral.
The Great Evil was a being directly granted power by the outer entities.
That’s how the Seven Evils were born.
Wicked Evil (狂惡), Vicious Evil (晟惡), Cruel Evil (殘惡), Foul Evil (凶惡), Illusionary Evil (幻惡), Mischievous Evil (僞惡), Malignant Evil (混惡).
Among them, Illusionary Evil was the weakest.
If you thought of it like the position of the Four Heavenly Kings, she was the one you’d call the weakest among them.
However, the power Illusionary Evil possesses was real.
Her ability exerted absolute power over those inferior to her.
Among them, Vicious Abomination was once called a saint.
He witnessed the truth of this world and sacrificed his soul to the outer beings to save the one he loved.
Vicious Abomination was once an understandable person.
Once.
The outer beings didn’t leave Vicious Abomination alone.
They corrupted the one once called a saint and ordered massacres. Vicious Abomination, crushed by guilt, carried out the massacres. And so, he gained power.
The rest of the story was simple.
The one Vicious Abomination loved beca a hostage to the outer beings.
Vicious Abomination continued to fall. The man who once grieved over a few deaths beca soone who could now take tens of thousands of lives without hesitation.
Vicious Abomination before he beca the Great Evil and Vicious Abomination after becoming the Great Evil are entirely different beings.
Now, he’s soone who wouldn’t hesitate to wipe out hundreds of thousands of lives if it ant saving his own.
And such a being appeared here without any sort of prelude?
‘Three months.’
The ti I spent lost in training, learning to properly control my power.
I looked at Vicious Abomination. He seed resigned to sothing.
Mines were the most wicked beings in this world. They offer the things of this world as sacrifices to the outer beings, aiming to invade.
When faced with death, they acted in one of two ways.
Nine out of ten would attempt a suicide attack on the enemy trying to kill them. Even if they didn’t die, the goal was to inflict severe wounds.
One in ten would rush to kill an innocent nearby.
The more they killed in the process, the more karma they accumulated. If the outer beings were watching, they might gain an opportunity to grow stronger.
The Nazi Empire was declared the enemy of the world for their cruelty in forcibly conscripting civilians and turning them into Mines.
But Vicious Abomination didn’t resist.
He wore a face of resignation.
He even seed sowhat pleased.
“Has he lost it? Beings from other worlds, in the end, are all the sa.”
“Suspicious as it may be, let’s kill him quickly. He is, after all, a Great Evil.”
The Heavenly Demon and the Thousand Sorcerer shared their thoughts.
The Heavenly Demon spoke to with a disturbingly close familiarity.
Why was she acting so familiar?
I shot her a look, but she seed to enjoy even that, smiling brightly.
“What’s wrong? Did you fall for again? Or are you going to get all worked up like earlier?”
I turned my head in disbelief.
I sank into thought again.
Three months.
The three months I devoted to training made stronger. But they also gave Vicious Abomination ti to make his own preparations.
Many different possibilities flashed through my mind.
And among them, the most plausible was:
‘The Apostle.’
The summoning of an Apostle.
I inford them.
Dividing the space with a boundary, ensuring Vicious Abomination couldn’t hear.
“I see. If that’s the case, it makes sense why Vicious Abomination is just standing there.”
“His death might be the trigger.”
The Thousand Sorcerer and Kim Seo-hyun wore troubled expressions.
The Heavenly Demon rested her chin on her hand, staring at .
Her eyes were filled with interest.
“That Apostle or whatever, how strong is it?”
I looked around.
Kim Seo-hyun, the one called the Divine Maiden, the Thousand Sorcerer, and the Heavenly Demon, who I wouldn’t mind having on my side.
‘With this much, we could even kill a dragon.’
If it was just one, that was.
Although there were many conditions, we couldn’t fight the Eternal Dragon yet, and the Illusion Dragon, known as the Invisible Dragon, would be tough. The Illusion Dragon always left at least one of us half-dead with a sudden attack.
The Dark Fla Dragon might be manageable.
There’s nothing trivial about her power, but my absolute stat, Black, allowed to control all of her dark flas. On the other hand, the Holy Light Dragon or the Seven-Colored Dragon would be difficult.
“Why are you suddenly talking about dragons? Are there really such strong creatures?”
I looked at the Heavenly Demon.
Talking about dragons was no big deal.
Because.
‘The power of an Apostle and a dragon are quite similar.’
No, if we were talking about pure strength, the Apostle was stronger.
Dragons had the advantage of being from the Middle World, while Apostles, having co from the Outer World, had their power weakened due to the laws of this world.
That’s why battles between dragons and Apostles relied heavily on compatibility.
Depending on the luck of the day, their fates could be decided.
I looked at the beings below.
The highest-ranked beings. And the sacred creatures of the Shingyo where the Heavenly Demon resides.
‘If we combine everything, it might sohow work.’
The most important thing was which Apostle Vicious Abomination summoned…
But, let’s leave that for later.
-…
Vicious Abomination was looking at .
“You summoned an Apostle, didn’t you?”
-That’s right. My death will complete the summoning. However, even if I don’t die, it will be summoned soon.
Vicious Abomination spoke calmly.
Instinctively, I recalled the number of people Vicious Abomination had sacrificed.
At least a million.
Moving in secret, it could even be as high as three million.
When I ntioned that, Vicious Abomination flinched.
“You seem quite knowledgeable about Apostles.”
“As expected of Seo-ha…”
Kim Seo-hyun looked at with a sad expression.
It seed she was terribly mistaken about sothing.
I didn’t bother to correct her misunderstanding.
There were more urgent matters at hand.
‘Starting with the handling of the Priestess.’
From the fight with the Apostle onward.
I looked up at the sky. Was it because I heard that the Apostle would be summoned? The sky had turned gloomy.
“There’s a lot to do.”
There’s still a bit of ti before the Apostle was fully summoned.
Killing Vicious Abomination would complete the Apostle’s summoning, but even if we didn’t kill him, it will be summoned. However, since Vicious Abomination had offered his life as a sacrifice, killing him would allow the Apostle to fully descend as a complete entity.
I severed Vicious Abomination’s limbs.
Then, I cauterized the wounds with Black Fla.
-“Kraaah!”
“Hooh.”
As Vicious Abomination scread in agony, the Heavenly Demon looked at my Black Fla with interest.
“I felt it during the fight, but your Black Fla…”
Just before the Heavenly Demon could finish her sentence, I created a ring-like structure with Black energy. I divided Vicious Abomination’s existence with a boundary and negated his power with the Energy of Defying Heaven.
‘This should keep him restrained for now.’
About two weeks.
And that ti almost coincided with the Apostle’s descent.
