〈 Skirmish (1) 〉
A deserted mountain area.
Jijijik—
The sound of something being torn apart rang out in the middle of it.
At the same time, a long crack began to form in the empty air.
It was accompanied by a continuous noise and rapidly expanded its area—.
Let’s go!
The harsh plosive sound that followed created a large hole.
Then, a pair of hands suddenly protruded from a gap that resembled the abyss of hell, grabbed both sides of the torn space, and began to widen it little by little, expanding it further.
“…at las.”
When the size of the crack finally exceeded a certain line, someone’s calm voice came from beyond it.
I couldn’t find any information other than that it was male… It was a voice so strange that I couldn’t make any sense of it.
“It took longer than I thought.”
Soon, the owner of the voice slowly appeared from beyond the space.
An unidentified man who seems to be either an ordinary young man or an extraordinary old man.
It was the moment when Beoncheonhoeju, who had been struggling for a long time to emerge from the bottom of the abyss, finally set foot on the earth.
‘Is this the Outerica dimension?’
He quietly looked around and nodded slowly.
A few things he had previously known flashed through his mind.
It is the most basic fantasy type of other world and a superpower system based on mana, a useful energy for manifesting phenomena.
God, the manager of the world, also had an interventionist dimension in that he not only bestowed divine power but also sometimes performed direct miracles.
‘The laissez-faire type is more convenient… but you will still get more out of it as much as it is a hassle.’
Thanks to that, I’ve already managed to get one in just a short time since I came here.
Although it was not as much as expected since the target of the transaction was a degraded and imprisoned god, it was enough to overcome many of the world’s restrictions placed on the Beoncheonhoeju, as he was a being with a clear deity of this dimension.
If it weren’t for that, I would probably still be trapped in that prison called the abyss.
‘First of all, that’s enough to make you feel good. I was able to learn how to move efficiently here. I don’t like the fact that I made a deal with a guy called God, but it’s helpful and there’s no need to sharpen it.’
Haven’t you decided to do anything to achieve your goal?
Up until now, there were several compromises made for that purpose, but it was funny that they were now choosing between means and methods.
“Then now… umm…”
Then, suddenly thinking about the next step, he took a big step and stumbled greatly.
Then, without realizing it, I frowned, placed my head on one hand and closed my eyes.
Wooooung—
-I will become a great….
Wooung—
-No matter how many times…, I will definitely….
Jiiing—
-Only I can make this world….
With a vibration that shakes my head. Tinnitus ringing in my ears.
Shocks that were enough to distort the ego that maintained reason continued to swirl within him, but he just silently endured it all, closing his eyes and remembering his mission.
How much time has passed?
A strong torrent that made him feel as if he would even lose himself swept past him, and when something that had been raging inside him gradually began to calm down, he was able to regain his stability little by little.
“after.”
With a short sigh, he removed his hand from his head and frowned as he noticed the cold sweat on his palm.
Although I had expected it, it was a feeling I never liked whenever I experienced it.
‘…How much did you lose this time?’
However, he calmly checked his condition immediately.
As he gained godhood, his personality and ego gradually became blurred, but he could not collapse already as there was still a lot of work left to do.
‘Still, this is a level of stability. There is no need to worry too much. ‘I can still fill it in a bit more.’
Gods were like that in the first place, so the reaction that was happening to them now was a natural phenomenon.
Rather, it would be greedy to try to maintain full human status while trying to gain complete divine status for one’s own purposes.
‘There is no problem.’
However, he has worked hard for only that goal and has only followed his own path no matter what anyone says.
He regained his composure and—.
As I tried to take another step, I suddenly stopped.
“…….”
His gaze turned to one side.
Although his sense of time was temporarily broken and it wasn’t accurate, it was true that the moment he lost consciousness wasn’t that short.
Still, it definitely wouldn’t have lasted more than an hour.
‘You probably didn’t prepare in advance, but you reacted so quickly?’
Before I knew it, I could sense a group surrounding me and approaching me.
The hostility emanating from them showed that they had not come here by chance.
However, even taking that into account, there was one problem.
The energy that can be felt from all of them is…
“…what is it? “Why you?”
at that time.
Before he could answer his question, a familiar figure appeared at the head of the group.
[Kkekekekeut, I found this first.]
“…Hahoe mask. “How are you here?”
Hahoe mask.
A being who had a run-in with him not long ago and was made to stay on Earth for a while to prepare for his reappearance.
Unlike the time when I faced him with a healthy mask, now he was showing a bloody skull with only the broken pieces of the mask attached, but it was definitely him.
To his dismay, Beoncheonhoeju’s expression subtly twisted as he encountered an unexpected adversary in an unexpected place.
[well? Take a guess.]
“…I see, you were also able to cross the dimension? “Have you been traveling back and forth between here and Earth?”
[Hehehe— Do you think so?]
“I didn’t know there was someone else who could do that other than me. This is quite unexpected. “I didn’t expect it at all.”
[Ohh? As expected, you are arrogant. It’s good that I now know that the world is wide. It’s something worth celebrating.]
“Then are those bastards the troops you gathered from this world?”
Even while they were engaged in a war of nerves pretending to be talking to each other, the undead army executives who came with Hans were moving in perfect order.
Death Knight Lord Karam leads the elite Death Knights and forms a formation.
Dread Phantom Pagos, floating in the air with ghostly undead.
Acrich Kelifa builds a huge magic circle with high-ranking lichs in the rear.
Many Abyss Revenants, including Salma, a former transcendental awakened person.
In addition, the fierce and powerful Ghoul Lord Fiona, Doom Knight Drexler, General Spartoy Trev, Deathwizard Malcolm, etc.
The black energy that flowed from their bodies, occupying all directions at once and forming a line, resonated with ‘death’ and instantly surrounded the surrounding area, polluting the entire space.
[Koooooo——!]
[Kyaaaaa——!]
In addition, the Bone Dragons Entracio and Heratos are swimming in the sky and glaring down.
Since only the top elites of the Immortal Legion were brought in in a hurry, the number of troops was only a few hundred, but their spirit, filled with the power of death granted by Hans in addition to the level each person had achieved, was at a level that could not be easily ignored.
‘…Somehow, I felt a sense of déjà vu ever since I was immersed in the abyss. It was exactly the same power that Hahoetal used.’
Beoncheonhoeju clicked his tongue and frowned at the energy felt in their fighting spirit.
At that time, I didn’t think much of it, thinking that all the waste in the world was similar.
“Yes, Hahoe mask. Honestly, I was surprised. I never thought you, who ran away from Earth, would be hiding in a place like this. But the fact that you showed up in front of me like this instead of continuing to hide… means you’re confident this time, right?”
After finishing his mocking words, a heavy energy emanated from his body.
Gooooo—
a presence truly worthy of its notoriety.
That was all, but the connection between the executives surrounding them faltered and they took a step back.
[Kukkkkk, this is getting too long. You will know that when you experience it yourself.]
The black magic mixed with the death of the abyss once again flowed from the body of Hans, who was quietly watching it, and engulfed the space.
And that, as they tossed around with the presence of the Buncheonhoeju, seeped into the bodies of the undead executives, awakening their disheveled spirits all at once.
‘There is no need to say anything about the compatibility between abyssal death and undead. I don’t know how useful the executives brought in to assist will be, but if they can be of some help, that’s fine.’
Hans prepared for battle with his spirit boosted by the rising tension.
I had dealt with him before, so I knew for sure what his opponent was capable of.
To be honest, I still wasn’t very confident if it was a one-on-one match.
‘But the situation here is different from Earth.’
At that time, there was no 『Dimensional Barrier Relief』, so the abyss could not use its power properly, but not here.
In addition, wouldn’t the effect be enjoyed not only by the top executives of the Immortal Army, but also by the Abyss Revenants who have been made from the awakened people of Earth?
On the contrary, the sacred power handled by Buncheonhoeju could not be fully exercised in the other dimension, Outerica.
It may have been a matter of little concern to him, who could only draw his own power from the Earth, but there was no way he could freely use the power of a foreign god here, where the main god was!
‘Yes, this place… Outerica is my territory.’
A crackling sound rang out from his bony knuckles, but the small noise was quickly lost in the surrounding commotion, as if a storm were raging
.
‘…Do you think I will be taken away by you guys again?’
A blue light emanated from the eyes of the Immortal King Hans as he faced the invaders who invaded his territory.
To be honest, I wasn’t even thinking about whether it was a home theater or anything like that.
I just want to do my best to defeat the enemy.
‘It doesn’t matter if I can’t beat him here. ‘As long as we don’t know what he’ll do, we can’t let him roam this world as he pleases.’
He forcibly suppressed the desire to use “Individual Gathering” right away.
First of all, it was necessary to prepare each connected force in various ways in case of an emergency.
Hans’ goal was to buy as much time as possible until the other avatars finished their work.
‘It’s worth it to always be on the lookout for it.’
The reason why he was able to find Beoncheonhoeju in the first place was simple.
This is the northern mountain range above the Republic of Zephia in the northeastern part of the Aeon Continent.
Not only was it a place where information could be acquired faster than any other organization, but it was also a state-of-the-art surveillance area with literally hundreds of watchdogs capable of responding 24 hours a day.
Of course, in the process, the banshee queen Olivia, the head of intelligence for the Immortal Army, had a hard time recently because she couldn’t sleep, but she was sleepless anyway, so it wouldn’t be a big problem.
“…Okay, I guess I should get things sorted out first before I start work.”
At that time, Beoncheonhoeju, who was quietly looking around, uttered a heavy word as if making a declaration.
Flap—
The brilliant sunset glow that emanated from its body accompanied the rough sound of flapping wings, covering my son-in-law.
Even though its output must have been weakened, its divine power is so powerful that it far exceeds that of the saint Heinrich.
The energy of death that filled the surroundings disappeared as if melting away, and holes began to open.
“It might actually be better this way, since we have less work to do on Earth. “Then try to rebel somewhere.”
[Keuhaha! Ah—yes. Let’s hang out somewhere!]
In a remote mountainous area where people stop visiting.
Kwaaaaang—!
The second battle between the alien angel and the local devil has begun.
***
“Bricky.”
“Ah—Heinz, it’s been a long time since I came… ugh?”
Bricky, who had been looking back with his usual carefree expression at the sound of a familiar voice, suddenly stiffened.
Gulp —
followed by a small sound of spit being passed.
But her pause lasted only for a moment.
Soon she regained her cool, lowered her gaze and opened her mouth again.
“Um…ha, you’re here at High Lord? It looks like you’ve been far away… You must have eaten something good for your body. Your face is so radiant…”
“Prepare for battle right now.”
But Heinz, who could not afford to go along with it, decisively interrupted her and gave an order.
By communicating with Jinhyeol-level high-ranking combat agents through telepathy between vampires.
“Yes, High Lord!”
“Oh and.”
After Bricky responded instinctively with his military spirit up, his words continued again.
“Before that, let’s do this first.”
As Heinz II spoke like that, a “purified blood essence” of divine blood shining like ruby rose from his fingertips.
Gulp—
With the sound of spit flowing again, her eyes focused on the fragrant liquid.
