Episode 935 Annihilation (2)
Due to the taboo recited by Draven, the
however…….
He cast
It feels like the magic circuit is burning up.
He took a direct hit from Grimmel’s chain explosion of magical power, causing parts of the muscles in his back and chest to rupture. The joints of his arms, shoulders, and ribs, which had collided directly with the ancient king’s body transplanted by Draven, cracked and threatened to dislocate.His entire body was damaged as the price for hearing the taboos concerning souls. Furthermore, he had to transcend the hierarchy of magic once again and enter the realm of the 8th rank.
My whole body is in danger.
I had entered a state where my activities were strained both physically and magically. The sound of my wildly pounding heart inside me was louder than the thunder.
The future is unpredictable.
It will undoubtedly lead to an ascent in level, but one does not know what process will be involved. Since even the awakening of a transcendent being varies for each individual, the moment of crossing the wall of transcendence once again cannot possibly be identical.
Be true to the essence. And dominate.
The level of controlling the uncontrollable is the 8th level.
The information mentioned by the Provider ultimately proves unhelpful. This is because the realization that one must immerse oneself in the essence had already been attained.Regardless of what one knows or hears, since one cannot understand something without experiencing it firsthand, superficiality is no different from ignorance.
Now that the direction of moving forward and upward has been recognized, the signposts set by others are nothing more than unsuitable decorations.
It is a path that no one can walk for you.It is a path that no one can support you on.
From beginning to end, Verden himself must step upon the ground one step at a time. This is different from when he received a hint from the World Tree because he could not become a transcendent being.Advice is unnecessary.He has finally opened the door to mastering the concepts of magic. Beyond that lies a world that can only be known and ruled by the master who pioneered magic.
Verden is infinity and destruction.
──────────!
Verden, having tossed
I executed a hierarchy breakthrough twice today alone.
Therefore, the time he could maintain the 8th rank had been drastically reduced from the original 26 seconds to now only a few seconds.A dark red crack began to rise with a cracking sound from the nape of his neck, which was not covered by the First Demon King’s robe. The destruction that had run out of control was now affecting even Verden.
The greatest and strongest Xuan Lei.
As the three artifacts that were reinforcing the Heart Soul True Energy were simultaneously erased and the True Energy collapsed, Lunesica Anternoa, whose resistance had been severely weakened, was literally destroyed.
“Remnants───”
Cardinal Gregorban’s very, very urgent voice belatedly spread out. Was he telling me to destroy even the remnants of the altar used for the resurrection of the old king?
That isn’t enough.
I will completely obliterate not only the altar but also Draven Lemarque. If I cannot seize the First Legend—Animus—immediately, I will destroy it.
Verden was determined not to leave even the slightest possibility of a variable.
The world moves slowly.
Adrian moved swiftly to protect Castian with a sword barrier. Even as he knelt on one knee under unimaginable pain and pressure, he did not take his eyes off Verden.Castian collapsed, overwhelmed by a torrent of lightning that seemed capable of shattering his very existence.Regrit crossed his arms and wings to guard the heart and head from destruction;Gareth reflexively shifted his center of gravity backward with a look of astonishment; andLeonhardt, as if his hand had moved on its own, thrust the Holy Sword forward to protect Cardinal Gregorvan’s body with a divine shield.
In the midst of that… … unheard footsteps crossed the crowd.
Unofficial Transcendent, Dantel.
“At this rate, the resurrection of the Sixth Apostle will fail. It can’t be helped. I hadn’t planned to take direct action against Verden.”
Dantel had been observing the situation until now, as his targets were the Transcendents, with Gareth and Indren being his primary objectives. Althoughfacing them head-on would be difficult, assassinating a Transcendent who let their guard down immediately after a decisive battle with Draven was a relatively easy task.
However, when considering the priorities of the mission, the return of the ancient king comes first.
I thought that the worst dwarf on earth would be able to easily catch Verden. The situation in which he came over here was certainly unexpected.
To think they could even manifest magic of this magnitude.
Illuminating the islands of the Hiaremar Inland Sea to lure out Indren and Gareth, gathering the ancient king’s body, aiding in the raid on the Ruas Theocracy, facing the Saintess as a Beast of Massacre, and using mummies to distract the attention of each faction’s exploration teams… … .
I have already intervened too directly in the world.
Fate and Resistance.
Even though the first to make a move in the current state of forced truce is at a disadvantage, perhaps this is the natural order of things now that the wheel of fate has turned.
‘… … Was this the face of a transcendent being with the power of choice?’
There is the culprit and the very person responsible for causing the world before my eyes to revert to square one. I had only heard about him because I had never had the chance to meet him, but this was the first time I had actually seen him.While I felt genuine admiration, I also sensed a fundamental fear.
Anyway, I have no intention of killing.
Because the higher ups did not issue clear orders on what to do. They are merely causing the necessary obstruction for the given mission.
Sever only the nerves and magic circuits in the left arm, and retreat.
The ripple effect of annihilation spreading from the super-level magic was scattering even Dantel’s body, yet his legs did not stop.The madness of a transcendent being does not yield even in the face of death. Completing the destiny of the world was the reason he had been chosen.
A stealth maneuver that exploits the blind spots of the transcendents.
Dantel crossed his arms and twisted his wrists to sharpen the daggers he held in both hands.
Transcendence.
Killing intent was amplified within a limited range, attempting to form a line alongside sword energy.Verden noticed the murderous intent directed at him, but it was already too late. The distance between the two, narrowed to its limit, was under Dantel’s control.
The other transcendents were so focused on the super-level magic intended to obliterate the glory of the corpse, and their senses were numb from exposure to the power of destruction, that they could not even notice the sword aimed at Verden.
Except for one person.
… … !
Adrian thrust his lightsaber forward and stepped between the two from the side. Dust rose from the ground and scattered slowly.A fleeting universe, where even sound could not fully reach, surrounded them.
Adrian Chambers used a transcendental technique. He has no strength to block my power.
After a brief moment of surprise, Dantel laid the backs of his hands flat and spread his crossed arms apart.
In such fleeting realms, instinct takes precedence over reason. Survival instincts are bound to manifest more strongly than loyalty.
If he doesn’t dodge, Adrian will die.So he will dodge.He will twist his body to preserve even the slightest bit of his life, and that opening will invariably become a sword path leading to Verden.
Just because one has the right to choose does not mean they have a stronger will than those who do not. This is because having free will allows one to hesitate.
Murder of lament.
Extreme death story
As the tips of the daggers passed each other, the line of death was drawn.Skin splitting apart.The right dagger sliced through Adrian’s arm and plunged into his chest. The left dagger bent, piercing his abdomen and tearing through his organs.
“… … You didn’t dodge?”
Dantel, with his eyes wide open, raised his gaze slightly. Adrian, his whites bloodshot, glared at Dantel with a fierce glare without blinking.
How dare you.
A thick yet sharp murderous intent grazed Dantel’s neck. Adrian absorbed the transcendent energy with his entire body and swung [Silendar].
The disconnected sky.
Series
A world where space is severed and split apart.
If you don’t stop it, both of you will die!
Dantel could not fully extend his arm and reflexively twisted his waist. A dagger slipped from Adrian and headed toward the light sword.The two transcendental energy clashed diagonally, applying immense pressure to each other.
BANG!
Blood gushed from Adrian’s wound.
One of Dantel’s daggers broke, and a lightsaber was embedded between his neck and shoulder. His collarbone was severed.The razor-sharp blade sliced through part of his lung and came within striking his heart.
And so the moment comes to an end.
Faced with the desperate magic, Draven Lemarque twitched Animus’s Gauntlet, even slightly. Even His Majesty’s transplanted left arm.However, he immediately released all strength from his body.
It can’t be stopped anyway.
As expected, is an ideal an ideal?
Together with His Majesty Xerion, he tried to correct the false doctrines of the Luas religion and set this wrong world right, but as expected, it was difficult to achieve the ideal.Death was inevitable.Thus, Draven took one last step toward the ideal.
It is fine if… … I do not come back to life.
If His Majesty is resurrected, an immortal world will dawn, and even the dead will be able to regain their lives. However, Draben gave up that precious opportunity.
‘animus.’
Draven, having made his choice, closed his eyes.
The thunder of annihilation shattered even the ideals of the transcendent being, destroying everything in its path. A dark red light delivered the final blow to the servant.
Kwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwa!
The body of a transcendent being that perishes without leaving even a speck of dust.
Draven Lemarque was annihilated.
* * *
The flow rushes in as if space is being split.
The moment
The sense of floating lifted the cavity in an instant.
A light of destruction soared, and the remnants of
“You, you crazy…!”
Gareth maintained a defiant stance, but his composure eventually crumbled under the residual lightning. The thunderbolts flew indiscriminately, distinguishing between friend and foe.
Kwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwang!
Even the walls of the underground labyrinth could not withstand it and shattered into dust. The scale of this cavity began to expand to an area several times larger than it is now.
“Cough……!!”“I can’t hold on……!!”
Whoosh──────────BOOM!
Severely wounded, the transcendents flew to the far end of the receding wall and crashed violently. A vibration echoed, threatening to collapse the island’s underground.
“Gasp, gasp, gasp……!!”
Leonhardt, who had protected the Cardinal and himself with the help of the Bible and the Holy Sword, leaned his back against the collapsed wall and gasped for breath.His body would not stop trembling.Bleeding from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, Leonhardt dropped the Holy Sword.
Th-this is, Lord Verden’s best, full power.
Castian tried to stand up but vomited thick blood and slammed his head down. It was the first time he had felt such terror since voluntarily declaring himself a sinner of a fallen kingdom.To think the aftermath alone possessed such destructive power.Had Adrian not left a shield of swords behind, he would not have been able to maintain his sanity. Had it been just a graze rather than the aftermath, he would surely have died instantly.
Countless debris fell from the sky. The cavity, which had grown so large that it would not be enough to fit an entire city, was filled a little.
Kuuuuuuuu… … .
Eventually, the shock wave subsided.
Only a massive pit remained where the altar had stood.The Dragon Sword Magras had been blown away by the blast and was embedded in the wall, and the wooden coffins containing the ancient king’s body parts were nowhere to be seen.
The old king’s first and second servants are certainly dead.
The glory of the corpse was completely annihilated.
There is no longer a transcendent being capable of continuing the resurrection ritual of the ancient king. Verden definitively concluded that the servants were dead.
It’s over.
Verden shrugged his shoulders and soon knelt on one knee. Adrian, who had plunged his light sword into the ground, stood guard beside him in a battered state.The wound inflicted by the enemy’s transcendental technique had widened due to being stimulated by destruction, and a considerable amount of blood was flowing down his body in real time.
“Adrian, what about the injury?”“The Transcendent who targeted the Lord.”
Adrian ignored the bleeding and slowly looked around the devastated surroundings.
I am still alive.
He had rendered one of his arms unusable, but he could not sever his heart. There was no sign of him. The bloodstains did not lead anywhere either.Although it was impossible to know whether he had escaped or hidden himself using his unique skills, it was clear that he was not dead.
First, take the potion.
Verden opened a subspace and passed the most concentrated of Lisandro’s fruit potions. Had the injuries been slightly more severe, the use of an elixir would have also been considered.
Then, I detected a faint sound.
Click, click.
A very faint metallic sound was heard.
I shifted my gaze.
Draven’s gauntlets, cracked in places, are moving without a master and crawling toward the pit. The left arm and the right arm, separately.
The foremost of the Six Great Legends.The desire to manipulate souls.
It was certainly on the verge of destruction, but it was not. Without a physical substance, there is no guarantee it won’t activate!
The magical power is out of control.
Verden tried to deal with it using his Mystic Eyes, but his body did not obey him. Adrian, immediately noticing this, threw [Silendar] with a yell.
Boom!
The light sword pierced halfway through the left gauntlet.
“I’ll take care of the rest!!”
Castian, who was the only one still intact, charged forward and pierced through the right gauntlet. As its resistance had been severely weakened, the gauntlet could not withstand their sword strikes.
“Haaah!”
Next, Legrit flew up and struck the stave of the lightsaber with his fingers crossed.The gauntlet was not only pierced but completely shattered into pieces.
Crunch!
Castian used the power of the artifact to grab the gauntlet and smash it in half. Draven’s right arm inside was also torn to shreds.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa… … .
The lament of the soul flows down like a river.
“Phew, phew. You’re persistent, right up to the very end.”
Legritte flapped her tattered wings and trampled on the gauntlet fragments. Although she was also quite seriously injured, she was able to move fairly well thanks to the dragon’s vitality.
“That’s it for now…….”“Legrit, not yet!”
Verden shouted.
Find the arm!!!
Even during
Then, where is the old king’s left arm?
If Draven still had a body remaining, the Old King’s could not have been destroyed.Regrit had not dealt with Draven due to an intrusion midway and was completely unaware of the body transplant, so he realized this fact belatedly.
and.
A low voice heard from afar.
“Lunesica Anternoa.”
An overwhelming presence manifested beneath the cliff formed by the thunder of extinction.
“Recount the centuries that have passed.”
