Chapter Index

    Light leaks from Kariel’s body.

    In response to such an unexpected incident, Vermis immediately moved his body.

    I don’t even know why.

    It was simply because my entire body’s instincts were warning me.

    If we don’t stop the hero now, a huge disaster will occur.

    And it would be difficult for even him to handle such an unexpected event.

    Therefore, Vermis used all his strength to hit the fallen Kariel.

    Coogung!

    A blow that goes in clearly.

    A huge hole appeared in the ground.

    In Kariel’s current state, she would have died instantly without even needing to see anything.

    However, Vermis looked down into the pit to confirm the anxiety that existed in a corner of his heart.

    Kariel was still lying there.

    However, there is something different from before…

    ‘I’m fine.’

    It was so fine.

    In fact, the situation has even recovered.

    The current hero cannot cause damage.

    Vermis decided so and tried to slam the sphere that had stopped for a moment on the ground again.

    If you can’t damage the hero, it’s better to eliminate half the dimension.

    Because I thought that was the most reasonable decision at the moment.

    In reality, his judgment was not wrong.

    However, he didn’t think about it.

    A black sphere that touches the ground does not erase half of the dimension.

    It will just slowly disappear.

    ‘… ‘

    It was a sight that even he, a top-level devil, had never seen before.

    How should I explain this?

    miracle? Mystery? That or something else?

    Whatever it was, Vermis knew full well that it was not a good sign for him.

    ‘It’s dangerous.’

    It’s too dangerous.

    An unexpected event was taking place.

    The music and this song that I hear in my ears right now

    It sounded like a song of death.

    Is this song the culprit?

    In that case, I have no choice but to get rid of it…

    ‘How do I get rid of it?’

    There is no way to get rid of it.

    Because right now, the song that was ringing in my ears was being sung by countless people.

    If you want to stop singing, you have to destroy all life in the dimension.

    Considering the sphere that had just disappeared, that was also impossible.

    Cold sweat flows.

    For the first time in his life, he felt nervous and slightly afraid, and looked at Kariel, who was still lying down.

    It must be eliminated.

    It has to be stopped somehow.

    There is no chance if not now.

    Sensing him, Vermis poured out all his strength and punched towards Kariel at the bottom of the pit.

    As a result, the ground was covered and an even bigger hole was created, but Vermis did not stop.

    If I didn’t kill him here, it was obvious what would happen later.

    That’s why I put all my effort into it.

    The warrior’s condition was very fine.

    Vermis threw the warrior into the pit outside.

    Then I tried to punch him again.

    Vermis’ body was thrown away by an unknown force.

    His body sweeps the ground and flies away.

    Vermis stopped his flying body by planting his hand on the ground and looked at the hero.

    The warrior was already up.

    He woke up in a somewhat awkward state and had his eyes closed.

    The situation that Vermis was so worried about occurred.

    Soon, the warrior’s eyes slowly opened.

    Vermis’ body trembled like crazy as he faced golden eyes.

    His soul was speaking.

    The being in front of me has a status so great that it makes me look like someone else.

    If you don’t want to die, kneel down right now.

    Vermis fell to his knees at such a cry.

    I did not kneel with the will to live.

    Just the fear of facing someone more powerful than oneself.

    Because Vermis felt it.

    Kariel looked at Vermis with calm eyes.

    ***

    Kariel, whose consciousness was swimming in the darkness.

    Forcefully guided by the light, I came back to my senses.

    And consciousness awakened.

    Although I couldn’t open my eyes, I could clearly feel that I was alive.

    Clearly, all vitality has been used up.

    But how on earth was it possible for consciousness to return?

    It was a time when Kariel had such questions.

    Soon, numerous lyrics and music came to his ears.

    As if we were looking into Kariel’s life, the lyrics and music contained the emotions he felt as he lived his life.

    Beautiful.

    Sometimes brilliant.

    Sometimes a painful life.

    The song sounds as if many people sympathize with him and comfort him.

    Kariel felt a feeling close to a blessing that would never exist again.

    I never thought that someone would understand my feelings.

    The voices that seemed to number well over tens of thousands of people were understanding me.

    How could I not be happy?

    I didn’t expect anyone to know, and I didn’t even think about it.

    But they knew.

    Everything about yourself.

    So Kariel wants to repay that trust.

    I had that kind of mindset.

    At that moment, a change occurred in Kariel.

    ‘ah… ‘

    A huge amount of strength filled my once weak body.

    A huge power that I have never had before.

    At the same time, a feeling of elation covered my entire body that made the hair stand on end.

    Feeling such a sense of elation, Kariel realized that he had finally entered the realm of transcendence, the Sword Master.

    A somewhat absurd situation.

    That’s right, when I came back from a blackout, I found myself in the Sword Master.

    How could it not be absurd?

    Kariel was quite embarrassed.

    At least when you reach the level of a sword master, shouldn’t you know the reason?

    But we have reached that point without even knowing the reason.

    Is this a point reached so vainly?

    It was a moment when I felt so shabby as I thought about the one step toward becoming a sword master that I had not even had a clue about just a moment ago.

    If I had reached this level, I wouldn’t have even thought about it.

    Regardless of such an embarrassing situation, Kariel was very familiar with her current power.

    As if I had already reached this level once.

    The power he gained by ascending to transcendence suited him very well.

    The experience of being moved so purely by will, with its rough and powerful energy, was refreshing for Kariel as well.

    ‘I guess it doesn’t matter.’

    It’s probably not that important at the moment.

    Because what’s truly important is right in front of you.

    Kariel slowly opened her eyes.

    As his vision slowly recovered, the sight he saw was Vermis looking on in fear.

    As soon as Vermis made eye contact with him, he knelt down.

    It seemed like he couldn’t overcome his overwhelming fear.

    It looks quite strange.

    A completely different appearance from what was shown just before.

    Looking at Vermis like that, Kariel had a slightly different thought.

    ‘Was it this small?’

    It’s so small.

    Unlike when they fought, Vermis was small enough to feel sad.

    To the point where I wonder if I lost to this guy.

    In a way, it was a natural ending.

    Kariel, who was almost at a boiling point, achieved transcendence.

    Naturally, the transcendent level is beyond imagination.

    A gigantic stature and power that can turn Vermis into something like that.

    Even though Vermis was a top-level demon, he was nothing more than dust to Kariel, who had achieved transcendence.

    Kariel’s gaze turned to Vermis, who was kneeling and trembling in fear.

    He said.

    “The last thing I want to say is.”

    Now the time has really come to see the end.

    As if he had shown some consideration to himself.

    He also decided to be considerate so that he could leave his last will.

    However, Vermis did not say anything.

    I just tremble in fear.

    Have you lost your will?

    Then there was no need to wait any longer.

    Kariel quietly swung his sword.

    Suddenly.

    Just like that, Vermis’ head fell off.

    A rather shabby death to be said to be the end of a top-level devil.

    Kariel took up the holy sword, feeling a little empty, and the dark clouds covering the sky slowly disappeared.

    Then the clear sky appears.

    Upon seeing that, Kariel felt that it was finally over.

    And at the same time.

    Kariel lost consciousness.

    ***

    The dark clouds clear.

    What it means is that the hero Kariel won.

    Many people cheered for him.

    Many people were happy as if they had received a blessing.

    In particular, the church members at the scene roared.

    The only person who was particularly calm was Llewen.

    She saw the barrier, which was already on the verge of collapsing, disappearing and got closer.

    As she got closer, the barrier cleared, revealing the inside of the barrier.

    Inside, Vermis’ body and Kariel were seen lying on the ground.

    Maybe he’s dead?

    Those in the church thought that and stopped cheering.

    Lewen slowly examined Kariel’s condition.

    Breathing is steady.

    However, he was sleeping due to the fatigue caused by transcendence.

    “I’m alive.”

    Those in the church once again cheered with joy at that single word.

    Lewen stroked the head of Kariel, who was sleeping soundly.

    “Good job.”
