Episode 264
Kwaaaaang―――!!!
[…Weina!!]
The phase’s arm pierced the chest of the guide in the fog.
When the Sangha’s hand ca out on her back with red blood, she trembled as if in pain.
Gulp – Gulp –
the phase swallowed Wei Na’s soul.
[Please…]
Just before the soul disappeared, a faint voice rang in Yor’s ears.
Passyuk…!!
But at that mont, Sang Sang rcilessly stepped on Wei Na’s body. With the impact, her body crumbled into ash.
[What are you expecting? Even though you can predict the future of others, you do not know your own future.]
Yor rolled his eyes as he looked at the status.
[Now all that’s left is you. Yor.]
[You’re eating it up well. I don’t know how much their power will fatten you up.]
[Tsk tsk… Yes. Just eating these guys won’t change my strength. But you guys will serve as a foundation for devouring it.]
Sangyang said, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand.
[Namgoong will be here soon. You will regret not catching him because he was eating us.]
[Click… Well? Have you ever thought of the opposite? I am waiting for him. I hope he cos.]
He smiled coldly at Yor.
As he ate the eight statues one by one, his distorted figure in the whirlpool took shape little by little, and now he had the appearance of a surprisingly perfect human being.
Ironically, the more power he gained, the more he beca the person he loathed.
[Honestly, it was unexpected. The person who could end this fight was Namgung’s wife.]
Sang Sang nodded slowly.
[Namgoong… He didn’t beco Lin’s revealer, did he?]
At his question, Yor’s eyebrows twitched for a mont.
[I felt it when he used the chain. It was definitely a powerful force, but it couldn’t completely kill .]
[I don’t know what you’re talking about.]
[It felt strange, like an ordinary Aspect using a chain. And then I realized. The [Extraordinary Cloak] you gave . It’s a treasure that allows you to use the power of the phase, even if it’s only for a short ti.] [
Hmph, could I have trapped you with just that?]
[It would be impossible. But it’s different with Origin. That cloak you made… It was actually modeled after the cloak in my fortress.]
[….]
Sang Sang grinned at him.
[I almost got fooled too. If your cloak had the effect of raising the power of the phase, then the [Outer Cloak] in my fortress had the effect of drawing out the power of humans.]
He continued.
[If you use two cloaks at the sa ti, tricking the eyes is not impossible. If you use the power of the phase while augnted with the [Cloak of Invisibility]… you will be able to look like you are Lin’s revealer.] [As expected
… I didn’t buy it in vain.]
[Hmph, are you praising now? You?]
Sangye asked back as if he was dumbfounded.
[It’s not a complint, it’s just pointing out ignorance once more. Soone who knows that is doing this here?]
Yor said, narrowly dodging the Aspect’s attack.
[Lin’s true revealer is coming. The only hunter who can kill you.]
Quaaaaang—!!
At that mont, the Aspect’s fist grazed Yor’s side.
There was a loud noise and the side where the fist grazed was left with a large dent as if it had been bitten by a wild animal.
[…Ugh!!]
Yor’s body swayed, and the snakes around him blocked his path as if to protect him.
Grumbling…!!
Damn…!
But at that mont, the snakes instantly burned, froze, and broke apart.
[What a pity. Yor. Now, the only snakes that can be manipulated are these… This is the price you pay for unreasonably destroying your incarnations for Namgung’s sake.]
Sangyang spoke to Yor as he stepped on the snakes struggling on the floor and burst them.
[It’s funny. The god who was thought to be the most evil of the eight phases was actually the one who loved humans the most. But who would know this?]
[Ugh…!]
The Aspect grabbed Yor’s neck and slowly lifted his body up. It felt like his delicate neck would break at any mont.
“Yor!!!”
[Don’t co…!!!]
Lu tried to run towards Yor, who was captured by the Sangha, but Yor’s yelling made him stop.
[You must not do anything anymore. roo. Because anger doesn’t suit you.]
[Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk… I guess that is what they are saying when they say that even if you have power it is useless. Even though you have the power to overpower , you can’t kill ? This is ridiculous. A human being more benevolent than a god…]
Sangyang sneered at Lu.
[Because of that, you will eventually fall into the abyss again.]
“Well.”
Suddenly –
that was the ti.
The Aspect’s arm holding Yor’s neck was cut off.
[…Did you co?]
It was a surprising situation, but rather Sang Sang looked at Namgung, removing the severed arm that had fallen on the floor with his foot.
“I guess it’s no surprise that he lost an arm to the extent that he suffered so much.”
“dad.”
“Oh… I’m sorry. “How much did you eat?”
Namgoong patted Somin’s head and nodded.
[Now wait! Why is that child here!]
Yor, who was freed from Sang-sang, looked at Somin and shouted as if he was surprised.
“We ca together. “Because we are family.”
[Hey you crazy guy! Even if this isn’t so kind of amusent park, there’s sowhere else to take them!!]
“Anyway, if the status wins, it’s all over. Regardless of the danger, Somin’s presence is necessary for us to beco stronger.”
[…What?]
“If it’s to protect my child….”
Quaaaaaaang―――!
At that mont the chain moved.
[…!!]
The chain flew at incredible speed and burst the Aspect’s shoulder.
“Because parents beco stronger than any other god.”
[Ugh!!]
It was different from a little while ago.
The chain that flew in changed direction and aid at the phase once again, and when the arm that was trying to hit the chain hit it, the phase’s arm was shattered like a balloon bursting.
[Is this… the real power of Lin?]
When Namgung used it, it was clearly a great power, but looking at it like this, his use of the chain felt like a joke.
“I am no longer alone. So you can never lose.”
Wow…!!
A halo of light appeared behind Namgung’s back like wings, and behind it, a woman was seen wrapping around him.
[How dare you…!!!]
Sang Sang’s broken arm sprouted again.
The power of the Baweisang that had been consud so far burst forth and attacked Nangong.
Quagang!!
At that mont, a lightning strike blocked the phase’s attack.
“How can you do that? Yor, you can only block an attack from a phase that even you could not block with magic.”
Lu said, widening his eyes as if he was surprised when he saw Somin’s brain painting.
[It might not just be magic. From the beginning, he was a child with excellent magical abilities, taking after his mother.]
“But even so, thought magic was magic that fell under the category of carnival. Although it is great magic, it may not be enough to block the attack of the Aspect…”
[What is great is not the type of magic, but the vessel itself that contains the magic. This is a child who has his mother’s soul inside his body. Moreover, he is a child with the blessings of the fairies and the affinity for spirits.]
Yor rembered the ti he first t Somin at the morial hall. When she, who thought she was just a child, had lightning thrown at her.
[You should know better how amazing it is that three different types of power coexist in one human body.]
“His family is all extraordinary. Should I say I am blessed….”
[A father who returned from hell to et his daughter who lost her mother and her family. And even their mother, who had to watch them in silence. To these people, the word “blessing” ans sorry.]
“…I see.”
Lu smiled bitterly as he looked at Namgoong fighting fiercely.
“Did you say Sua…? How do you amortize it? “Will Namgung’s wife be able to destroy Ran and Wu?”
[I guess it depends on her capabilities. When we were tempering the chain in the furnace, I asked Lin to make a contract with Namgoong. But he refused. Perhaps it is certain that the revealer he has been waiting for is his wife…]
Whoops―――!!!
At that mont, Sang Sang dodged the flying chain and swung his fist at Namgung.
Namgung’s body, which blocked Sang Sang’s attack by crossing his arms, bounced and was pushed back.
[The question is whether her capabilities are truly suitable for battle.]
As Yor had worried, Namgung’s offensive began to fall back little by little.
[It is said that he went through hell, but that was only when he was a soul. She has never fought in person.]
Nangung was moving the chain with Lin’s power flowing from his wife’s soul, but little by little, the sum of the two was slower than the phase.
And that small gap was gradually pushing them closer.
“So what do we have to do?”
[Lan, Wu, and Lin are all fragnts of the original phase. Even if we intervene in their fight, there is nothing we can do.]
Lu sighed softly at Yor’s words.
“It’s all my fault. If I had murderous intent and hostility… No, I want to stop this guy so much, but I can’t kill him…”
[There’s no need to bla yourself. That’s probably why Rin could exist. Hope did not disappear because you did not have that kind of malicious intent.]
“But… we can’t leave this fight to them alone.”
[Don’t think about being harsh for no reason. It’s right that people who can’t be killed stay back until the end.]
Lu wanted to retort sothing to his cold words, but he couldn’t get his mouth out easily.
“What makes a great human being? There is no human being as lacking as .”
[If you could do everything, would that make you human? Humans are. You are human because you do the best you can within your capabilities. Why is there nothing you can do?]
Lu turned his head at Yor’s words.
[Just because you step back doesn’t an you shouldn’t fight. If we can’t fight… just help those who can fight.]
“Those who can fight…? “Who is that?”
At that mont, Yor looked at Somin.
[That child is no longer a revelator. So, since he can inherit my power and has the vessel to accept any power, he can also have your power.]
He smiled strangely.
[Blessings from God and the beginning.]
