-The side effects of Taesan are less well known. It is not as dangerous as the other two.

As my consciousness subsided, various memories came flooding back to me.

-You have to control your emotions in everything. If you fail, it’s better than being swallowed by fire or freezing.

Memories related to Mt. Taesan dominated the scene.

-But it’s not like Taesan doesn’t have any side effects. To be more precise, what are the precautions? How to use? Notes?

In a single drop of memory, Lee Ji-yeon, who was groaning, glanced over.

-Confidence is important for Taesan. It’s funny when I say this, right? But the content itself is correct, so remember it.

confidence.

-How strong is your will? How strong is your will to not doubt yourself and not crumble in the face of any danger? Even Mt. Taesan will rise with great strength in proportion to that.

Output of the unique ability itself. Output according to individual differences. And output according to one’s state of mind.

The output of Taesan rises and falls especially depending on one’s state of mind.

A strong will creates a mountain as strong as Mt. Taishan. A weak will creates a small hill that cannot stop even a gentle breeze.

-Thump! Thump! Thump!

Consciousness sank in. I didn’t lose consciousness completely. As my body sank down, the waves that shook my soul came closer.

Its own uniqueness was recognized.

Two great unique qualities. Magic affinity and all-round beauty. There are countless small unique qualities attached to the trunk that extends like tree branches.

A fire that burns with a blazing warm light.

Although it has not yet fully established itself, the Changhae is firmly asserting itself as water and ice orbit around it.

In the middle.

Rocks and soil are entangled and jut out. Greenery surrounds the towering mountain, and the foundation of life sprouts.

My brain was affected by the uniqueness that was slowly settling in. The mountain wavered between expansion and contraction.

‘I am…’

He was born a coward.

Before you can even ask yourself whether you have faith in yourself, you are the type of person who does not love yourself. You are so weak-willed.

No matter what others say, Lee Ha-yool thought so himself.

It was a few years ago that I was glaring at the needles, scared of people, locked myself in the house, and wetting my pillow as I thought about my severed leg.

Although it has grown and changed repeatedly, its fundamentals have not changed.

When faced with the flames of purgatory that were burning the world.

I was so scared that I almost fainted from the terrible pain the fire gave me. I wanted to run away, shedding tears.

Didn’t run away.

He charged into Purgatory without any hesitation. Even though his body and soul were burning in Purgatory, he never backed down and ran at it like a madman.

There was one reason for such behavior.

There was a reason not to run away. There was a reason to fight.

It’s not some useless leftover trash from parents.

Before I could believe in myself, I had to fight to protect something more precious than my life.

It is insignificant, if not trivial, compared to the comfort of those who are precious to me.

That’s fine.

It was enough motivation to set my will straight.

I can do anything for him, so how did I meet the conditions to handle Mt. Taishan?

-Kugugugu…!

The judgment was made. The mountain that had been shaking rose up. The uniqueness that had been completely established spread out.

.

.

.

-Bam! Bam! Kkwaang!

The giant continued to strike down with his fists. The strength of his entire body, as well as the darkness, were wrapped tightly around him as he struck down the enemy.

I felt it. I could clearly feel the small things breaking and crushing as they touched my fist.

But he didn’t let his guard down. He poured out his magic like crazy and even used his legs to hit the ground hard.

The pure white human, Lee Ha-yool, is a formidable enemy that can never be ignored.

Whether it was luck or coincidence, I was cornered. The human who cut through the darkness did not come near, only giving off a faint shiver.

I have to deal with it now. Empowered by that confidence, the giant lowered his leg for what must have been the dozenth time.

-Kwaang!

-…!

I put my leg in, but the ground didn’t sink any further. My leg wasn’t even touching the ground properly in the first place.

‘hmm.’

The two arms that were blocking it tingled. But they didn’t break like before.

Crunch! The crushed body was put back together. The splintered bones were glued back together, and the muscles and flesh were glued together. The blood that had poured out was welling up.

The vitality that surged from the earth lifted healing into the realm of regeneration.

-Phew…

In an instant, the vitality that turned an area into a green forest was consumed in healing. However, the vitality that showed no sign of drying up is embedded in the breath.

Lee Ha-yul closed his lips at the unique sensation.

‘Taesan.’

It was not an imitation through homogenization, but a uniqueness that was firmly established. There was no need or time to ponder it in detail.

The moment I felt the heaviness that had settled inside me, I realized that I could do things that I had not been able to do before.

Can I use it right away? That’s a non-issue. I learned it a long time ago. Even if I didn’t learn it separately, there is observed data.

Lee Ha-yool took a deep breath, smiling brightly. His ten fingers dug into the giant’s soles.

‘Taesan, expansion ability.’

reverse divergence force

-Kuuuuk…!

The tense struggle broke. The bent knees and arms straightened. The two toothpick-like arms pushed the giant’s legs away.

The giant’s body tilted. The giant’s red pupils glowed.

Gulp! A dozen or so pairs of pupils merged into one small eyeball. Magical power poured out from the glaring, bloodshot eyes.

-Seo-eok!

The light split. Magic cannons poured left and right, scratching the ground and exploding. Darkness poured down like a shotgun and settled on the ground.

“Did your plan go as planned?”

When he appeared in front of me and turned his sword once, Ira asked. Lee Yul, who clenched his fist, answered energetically.

-Yes! That’s great!

“I’m glad it went well for you.”

Contrary to the word “fortunate,” his expression was sharp and cold. Before I could ask him again, Sierra took a step forward.

“Then, I think it would be better to just leave that kind of thing alone.”

Sierra’s sword trembled. The blood-colored blade that resonated with life gave off an eerie aura.

-… Yes, now let’s subdue them…

“Okay.”

Boom! The floor burst open and Sierra was launched forward. Sierra clenched her teeth as she gripped her sword.

‘The little chopped to be sliced.’

All sorts of curse words that were difficult to say out loud were lingering in my mind.

Although he acted coy and polite in front of Lee Ha-yul, he is actually a tough guy who has been through a lot as a mercenary.

It’s a situation where you can’t help but curse.

A giant with bloodshot eyes, wrapped in darkness like a shadow.

It’s not my memory, but it’s a monster that swept through the front lines and killed my comrades.

It’s also a fucking monster that just kept dropping interest rates like crazy.

Murderous intent spread. Magic sparkled in the giant’s single eye. A magic cannon was drawn.

It didn’t cut down like before. The magic cannon was drawn along the giant’s intended trajectory. However, Sierra wasn’t swept away.

As the giant blinked his one eye, Sierra appeared right in front of his nose.

-Crunch!

A huge eye opened. Darkness poured down. The moment the giant raised both arms while screaming, Sierra’s sword accelerated.

The sword that led to dozens of afterimages brutally stabbed the single eye.

-Kuaaaah…!

The giant’s twisted hand grabbed Sierra tightly.

I couldn’t catch it. Sierra, who had appeared from behind my palm, swung her sword. The shaky blade skimmed over my finger joints.

‘wrist.’

The severed finger flew into the air. He twisted the sword that was buried in his wrist. Clang! The slash from the blade tore through his wrist.

Sierra ran along the giant’s arm with her sword still sheathed, and jumped up just as it reached her elbow.

Kwarurur! A magical cannon poured into the giant’s arm. When I glanced up, I saw a single eye that had almost completely regenerated and was spewing out a vicious hostility.

‘I guess it’s hard to stop regeneration.’

There are limits to ability. The current Sierra is a sufficiently strong superhuman, but it is not enough to fundamentally block the abilities of a third-tier monster.

Darkness can be easily kicked away with spatial abilities, but it is difficult to inflict more damage.

He lowered his gaze. His severed fingers and torn wrists. His arm, cut off while running, was stuck to the road.

‘Physical abilities and regenerative power unique to large species. Ability to restore attribute abilities.’

In addition, the clone that seems to be included in the attribute ability is strong enough to be comparable to the main body.

If I hadn’t used the clone separately and fought alongside the main body… it would have been a much more difficult fight than it is now.

3rd tier alpha. The current Sierra cannot be subdued alone.

Of course.

3rd tier monsters are entities that require all possible information in advance to defeat, and that require multiple top-tier heroes with a support team behind them.

A superhuman capable of single-handedly subjugating such a third tier is rare throughout history after the Great Cataclysm.

But in this moment, Shira is not alone.

-Crunch!

The ground rose up at the giant’s feet. Dozens of pairs of rock ridges rose up like octopus legs, entangling the giant.

‘It’s comfortable.’

Taesan’s manipulation of the earth. It may seem obvious, but it is overwhelmingly faster and easier than before. It’s like kneading soft clay.

That wasn’t all. The giant swung his two limbs, pouring out magic and darkness to try to erode the rock ridge.

It doesn’t break easily. The rock that used to break like corn stalks now stands firm and is able to repel the encroachment of darkness.

Lee Ha-yool clenched his fist in admiration.

Taesan expansion ability

Dead tree, living flower

Roots sprouted from the rocky ridges full of life. Thick roots grew as if compressing time, wrapping themselves around the giant’s body.

-Kuuuu…!?

The struggling giant opened its eyes wide. The darkness that had been pouring out began to slow down and seep into its roots.

The ‘entrance’ of the shadow does not open. It is blocking the escape by restraining the giant.

-Ku, wooo!

Kwarur! Darkness exploded from the giant’s entire body.

The darkness that covered the giant’s body increased its physical abilities. Thud! The roots and stems began to tear apart as it struggled violently.

It must be an attempt to shake off the restraints.

Of course, I have no intention of leaving it alone.

Bang! Lee Ha-yool kicked the ground. A stronger and faster jump. This is thanks to his body being filled and consumed with energy in real time.

It came right up to my nose in an instant. Compared to Lee Ha-yool, its pupils were so huge that they were hideous and filled with magical power.

It’s a damned magic cannon. Lee Ha-yool, the corners of his lips twitching, pulled his fist back.

Taesan expansion ability

Geumsan Iron Wall

There is no need to drag it from the earth. The magic power is transformed into rock and covered in armor.

‘huh?’

Momentarily, the rate blinked. Rock armor. The armor he had previously copied had a rough appearance.

Right now… it’s kind of cool. I didn’t really pay attention to it, but the small, detailed decorations are really nice.

‘Is this also the influence of the all-rounder? Anyway.’

The magic cannon poured out.

It was different from before. It wasn’t red, it was pitch black. It was an attack that poured a lot of my attributes into it.

Could it be blocked by the Geumsan Iron Wall? Probably. But I didn’t really want to try it.

The fist pulled back was filled with energy. An amount of energy several times greater than before was held in the palm of the hand.

He thrust his fist forward, which had been pulled back.

Taesan expansion ability

Goesan

A mountain that is not similar to other mountains, but is unique.

-Kwa─Aaaaang─!

The giant’s half-shattered head was thrown back. The fragments of the shattered head, blood, and darkness poured out.

‘oh.’

A giant falling backwards. As expected, the output is different. Lee Ha-yool, who opened his mouth, grabbed his fist.

‘I’m going to continue attacking like this… no.’

Goisan is a technology with decent fuel efficiency. It could fall like this and hit you in succession, but another thought came to mind.

Is it possible? I’m not sure. But a well-founded confidence guided my head and heart.

Zzz! The rock surrounding my hand peeled away. I put my pure white hands together as if I were praying. I calmly drew out my magic.

Scary.

Mt. Taishan.

‘Homogenization, creation.’

Fire, earthenware, water, and cold all gathered in the palm of your hand.

-Woo …

A violent backlash occurred in my palm. I was trying to control it, but the skin on my palm was torn off in an instant.

‘concentration.’

He focused more. Lee Ha-yool slowly opened both hands after exhaling deeply. Between them, the three colors that were intertwined and pushing each other were revealed.

‘The sun is starting to set, after all.’

This is because it has not yet fully established itself. The balance has been achieved by injecting more of the sea into it.

‘Here, Cheonryoranggupung… no, this time only Samjong.’

I could try, but I was convinced that I wouldn’t be able to control it. Control here means whether I survive or not.

I feel dizzy as if both my hands have been electrocuted. If I say “Oh no”, both my arms will burst and my body will burst with all the energy flowing back.

I gently pushed both hands down.

The three-colored sphere rose onto the chest of the giant who had fallen to the ground.

-… … … !

What followed was a familiar sight.

The three colors turned black, then expanded hundreds and thousands of times, engulfing the space.

There was no direct loud noise.

Instead, the sphere turned white, and a strong wind blew, swallowing up the air in the area.

‘Hehe.’

Soon, even the white sphere disappeared, revealing an empty space.

A smooth surface crater carved into the ground. Not a trace of the giant’s body remains.

‘Hehehe… ‘

The corners of his lips twitched and his rate slowly lowered to the floor.

Sierra, who had been appropriately removing the attacks and darkness directed at Lee Ha-yul, looked down at Lee Ha-yul, who had fallen lightly from the sky while taking off his gold mountain iron wall.

-How is it? You saw it! This time too, it was a success!

Lee Ha-yul sent the message with a somewhat satisfied face.

-I told you it would work out, didn’t I? I told you it would. I practiced so much!

A more lively appearance than before. He even puts both hands on his waist and puffs out his chest, saying, “Ahem.”

It seemed like he was brimming with energy and confidence. It was clearly a different feeling from usual, but I didn’t feel any danger.

If it was a harmful element, the burning fear that flared up like a seizure was fine for now. So, Lee Ha-yool enjoyed the satisfaction of the moment.

“… What the heck.”

That sight was so cute. The corners of Sierra’s lips twitched, as if she was indifferent to this.

“Even if you say that with both arms like that, my heart just feels like it’s being torn apart… ”

-Ouch

Lee Ha-yool, who had been puffing out his chest, blinked. When he slightly raised both arms, his arms, covered in blood and slightly twisted, were revealed.

The three types of burden that occurred insignificantly.

Even though the energy of Kyeophwa, Changhae, and Mt. Taishan is evenly mixed, burning life energy, regeneration is slow…

-… This is the expected level…

“I’m glad you’ve achieved something. When I had to just stand there and watch from afar, Lee Ha-yool getting beaten up by that bastard, my heart was torn apart, but now it’s better.”

Continued speech.

The tone was calm, but there was a hint of cold sharpness. In fact, the corners of Sierra’s eyes were quite raised.

Lee Ha-yool’s shoulders slightly slumped as he belatedly realized Sierra’s mood.

At the same time, the strange confidence that had filled his head and chest collapsed. Lee Ha-yool, who had shrunk, lowered his head.

-I’m sorry…

The liveliness that had been radiating from Lee Ha-yool suddenly dissipated. The surroundings became gloomy, as if sunflowers were withering.

“Uh… No… Not like that… ”

Sierra stumbled, taken aback by the dramatic change.

In this fight, Lee Ha-yul used his body too much. It’s the same no matter how much you consider that he’s the Tower of Growth.

So I was going to bring that up a little bit… but I felt guilty because I got such a strong reaction.

“Oh, please don’t be like that. I was trying to advise you, but that’s… ”

There was no Sierra around.

I have never tried to comfort anyone. Sierra, who was flustered, instinctively hugged Lee Ha-yul in her arms.

-Soft

Lee Ha-yul’s head was buried in his chest. Sierra blinked at the sensation. Looking down, she saw his chest, which was greatly swollen.

‘ah.’

The magical tool that was pressing down on his chest was released. Was it the magical power? Or maybe it was damaged during the battle. In this day and age, magical tools have lost their functionality…

Sierra, who was thinking about the cause, suddenly looked at Lee Harul. Her dull expression had brightened up a little.

“… Ahem. I’m sorry for being so sharp. But even though it’s a virtual reality, I can’t help but think of you as a testing ground for your body… ”

Sierra rolled her eyes and awkwardly patted Lee Ha-yul on the head.
