My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

〈 Title Exhibition (2) 〉

Kwaaang—!

I’m at a loss.

That was the honest impression that the original Gwangma Mokin-gwang felt while fighting his opponent.

I’ve fought against powerful enemies and been in danger countless times, but this was the first time I’ve ever encountered anything like this.

‘What on earth is this guy?’

Just by looking at the level of physical development, it was enough to guess that the opponent’s external attack was extraordinary.

Those viciously trained muscles were by no means at a level that could be built normally.

It wasn’t just a matter of inflating the size.

Its overwhelming body had destructive power and speed appropriate to it, and in addition, it had sharp visual acuity, unrivaled tenacity, and the fighting instinct to back it all up.

‘More than anything…’

There was no way I wouldn’t have recognized it, even if it was someone else.

The madness seething inside him.

It was an energy that I could never imagine embracing something that no human could handle.

‘I can’t believe it even when I see it with my own eyes. ‘Are you really human?’

It felt like I was dealing with a completely different type of monster with a similar appearance.

So, I deliberately chose to show off my opponent’s strengths, such as strength and agility, and then deceive my instincts to catch them off guard. At first, I thought it would work out well, but…

Wow!

Kang-gi’s nails, which shot up from a square, were blocked by the blades of his opponent’s hands.

However, since this had happened several times until now, Mokin-Gwang immediately continued the linked attack without any hesitation.

That attack was—.

Quad deuk!

I’m stuck again.

“Hahaha!”

It was blocked before I could fully extend it.

Let’s go!

It collapsed again and again.

It was a completely different reaction from the early days of the fighting.

And what that means is…

‘…is following you?’

It was proof that the monster he was dealing with was learning in real time.

By using himself as nourishment, not anyone else.

Of course, in the meantime, he mixed in the right amount of poison and left several wounds on the opponent’s body, but that wasn’t a very fatal attack either.

The wounds left like that soon healed cleanly over time.

It is amazing that the wounds of the powerful force that destroys everything it touches, filled with the will of someone who has reached a certain level, can be regenerated so easily.

Even if you are an expert in the field, it is common sense to recuperate after a long period of time, but this was an article I had never heard of anywhere else.

“Hehehe! Have you mastered some legendary immortality technique? “How on earth did that body come into being?”

“Khaat! You are quite good! It’s rare to find someone who can do this. “Show me more!”

“You crazy guy!”

However, because the people I encountered were so different, I had no idea how to respond.

As he is still standing at the edge of the flower world, he is an opponent whom he cannot do anything about.

He has always shown his might beyond his limits through the synergy of his martial arts skills and his unique constitution, but there was a big difference between being able to overcome the wall and not being able to overcome it.

“now! Aren’t you tired already? “Come one more time, friend!”

Mo In-gwang’s brow furrowed at those provocative words.

At this point, he too was able to clearly understand.

‘Could it have been this bad?’

The reason this fight is not ending quickly and is still continuing is because the other person wanted it to be that way.

Of course, I couldn’t help but feel jealous over that fact, but I didn’t have time to think about it right now.

‘Dangerous.’

Now he too was at his limit.

Perhaps due to unreasonable management, the madness that had been giving him strength so far had penetrated deep into his marrow, reached his brain, and was constantly pounding his Baekhoehyeol.

The source of his power and the double-edged sword that he was born with was now suffocating him.

‘You have to decide now.’

Now there are two options given to him.

After admitting defeat, you can completely withdraw your strength and control your mind and body calmly, or pour all your strength now and see the showdown, no matter what happens later.

‘…Do I need to choose?’

Of course, as always, his conclusion had already been decided.

The corners of his mouth rose fiercely again.

‘Yes, I’m not as good as you, but—.’

Mo In-gwang, who used the Gwangjesimgyeol (Gwangjesimgyeol), a German meditation method that he has been practicing every single day since he learned it from a childhood relationship, raised his energy again.

The reaction released the madness that had been suppressed, and I no longer cared whether it polluted my images or not.

It was a luxury to even think about the future when my nose was busy right now.

Popping—

Blood flow throughout the body increased rapidly, and the muscles expanded.

My sense of energy became sharper and my thoughts focused on only one thing.

Defeat the opponent in front of you by any means necessary.

As if it were a drug, the battle logic began to swirl in my mind according to the main premise.

The amount of madness that the other person possessed was certainly so far and vast that he could not estimate it, but he had the Gwangje Trial that allowed him to deal with it more efficiently.

In fact, hasn’t he already pierced the body and seen the blood several times?

He still had a good chance of winning.

That’s what I thought.

“nice! “Then let’s find out who is the true Gwangma!”

“Hoo? I suddenly became more active… hm?”

Soon, with his reason slowly fading away, he rushed towards the other person who was looking at him with startled eyes.

A strange, dark-red energy lingers all over his body.

***

Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province.

Inside a building located in the back alley, several people were talking in low voices.

By deploying a wonderful membrane inside and developing advanced techniques to completely block sound leaking out.

“What about Gwangma?”

“As planned. I headed to the main building where the monster was. “You must have encountered it by now.”

Their topic was about someone who had recently left the city in pursuit of someone who impersonated him.

In fact, that was the reason they were dispatched here in the first place, so such a conversation was natural.

“Who do you think will win?”

“Looking at the data so far, it’s probably that monster.”

“Well, Gwangma is not a great man who will easily admit defeat just because he is outnumbered. “If he ignores his own safety….”

“Well, if he is, it will definitely come out that way. “I don’t even think about what comes next.”

They quickly cleared the scene and exchanged opinions.

It was a question with no clear answer until the results came out, but there was one thing they all agreed on.

“But even those who survive that fight won’t be all that well.”

It was clear that neither party would be able to interfere with their work for the time being.

“Then mission accomplished.”

“No matter what the result is, our job is done. “The rest is a matter for judgment from above.”

Since we’ve pitted two people who have a high chance of interfering with the plan, whatever happens next will be much easier than before.

“Move to the next location.”

Of course, the matter was now out of their hands, so there was no need to think any more about what would happen to them.

“…to Dengfeng County.”

The place where they disappeared like that.

The inside of the building that housed the back alley intelligence organization not long ago had been cleaned out and there was nothing left.

Even those who were the original owners of this place before they visited it.

***

While sharing hands with the original Gwangma, Harley expressed her admiration for what may have been the number of times already.

“This is so amazing!”

Obviously, even though the opponent was not even Hyeongyeong yet, his fighting power was by no means easy.

No matter how specialized the martial arts world is in interpersonal warfare, it seemed like this would definitely put them at least half a number above the powerhouses of other dimensions.

‘Is this a martial arts skill that deals with refined madness? ‘It’s amazing that something like this exists.’

The characteristics of martial arts also played a significant role in his performance.

Massive scalability that makes you wonder if there’s anything that can’t be done.

It was an advantage that perfectly covered the fact that the mysteries of this world based on energy were not that diverse.

‘I think this could be quite useful.’

Harley’s response to that was simple.

Adapting to and learning from an opponent’s attack by seeing it with your own eyes and experiencing it with your body.

It wasn’t that difficult since he as well as Hugo could use the common skill “Imitation”.

‘I also have a “crazy tyrant” who specializes in dealing with madness.’

After devouring the core of the White Giant, an ability that evolved by combining three madness-related skills: “Frenzy Beast,” “Heart of the Radiant Dragon,” and “Insanity Control.”

The enormous amount of madness in my body began to move along a specific path little by little, thanks to a power that not only controlled madness but controlled it as well.

But…

‘…that looks a bit dangerous.’

Harley, who was in the middle of trying something new while receiving one-on-one tutoring, frowned.

“Kaaaa—!”

The teacher’s condition was unusual as he rushed towards me with his eyes wide open and foam at the mouth.

As if he had recoiled from using force that exceeded his limits, he had already completely lost his senses, and uncontrollable energy was leaking out from his body.

If you leave it like that, it will most likely destroy itself.

‘I still have a lot left to learn.’

And that wasn’t what Harley wanted.

The technique that Harley is learning now deviates from the general principles of martial arts, and its level is quite high, so it seems that more time is needed to make fine adjustments and learn it clearly.

‘I even marked him as my No. 1 Kang Hwan-gye subordinate.’

To do that, you had to first calm down the other person.

“Hey buddy? Calm down and talk….”

“Kaaah!”

Right now, Mo In-gwang was not in a state where he could communicate.

Only attack.

In addition, as if he was truly willing to use any means possible, he even began to use his innate energy, which was equivalent to his own life force, to make up for his lack of strength.

‘If I leave it like this, I’m really going to have to clean up the invoice.’

Aside from subduing him, it was necessary to put his madness to rest first.

Even if you keep your body immobile, you will already have lost control and the rampaging madness will suck out all the innate energy in your body.

‘This is my first time doing this to someone else.’

But there was no time to hesitate.

If I fail, I can’t help but think it’s fate.

Of course, it will not be you who bears that penalty.

“Whoa.”

At the same time as a light sigh.

Push!

Giggigigig— Gigigig—!

A loud metallic sound rang out along with hot steam from his body.

The right eye, with its red glow, was split vertically like that of a reptile, and the green pupil of the left eye had angles and sparkled like a jewel.

And right after that.

Kwaaaang—!

As before, the sound of a collision that shook the mountains erupted again, but the results revealed afterwards were completely different from before.

“Kahat! “Let’s just relax for a moment.”

“Keuheook!”

“Please understand, friend. “Think of it as anesthesia before surgery.”

After “Jewel Eye: Coercion” was activated at a critical moment, a large fist was lodged deep in Mokin-gwang’s stomach.

He paused for only a moment, but that moment was more than enough time to land a dead blow on Harley, who had already figured out who the opponent was.

“Off!”

“Uh-huh! This guy is so cool! “I guess one wasn’t enough yet?”

Of course, I couldn’t calm him down with just one punch as he was already in a state of madness.

It may also have been a part of holding a little weight in my hands for fear that if I tried with all my might, my internal organs would explode.

Hot!

Harley strongly grabbed the other person’s head with one hand, repeatedly squeezing and unclenching the other hand and looking at him meaningfully.

The Gwangma is trembling as if it has already recovered from the shock and is trying to force itself to move.

However, the unprecedented power that weighed down his entire body did not tolerate even the slightest resistance.

‘I don’t know how effective ‘Insane Tyrant’ will be here.’

Still, it’s better than doing nothing.

It might be a little extreme, but I’m sure he’ll understand.

“It stings a little~?”

maybe.

Whoa!

“…!”

and.

A tyrant from a powerful country arrived with a large army to suppress a rebellion in another country.

Accompanied by overwhelming violence to silence the resistance of the occupied territories.

***

There were so many proverbs in the world worth imitating.

Until it doesn’t work out.

What a great quote.

It was only a short phrase, but the sweaty effort felt there, the persistence of not giving up, and the passion to achieve it were never easy to see.

‘And there was another.’

Who said it?

They say a hawk is the best medicine for a crazy dog.

Harley

pondered over the words he had heard somewhere and worked hard without stopping to put enlightenment into practice today.

And the result.

Whisper—

“…Ugh. This crazy guy…cough!”

I was able to feel once again that there is nothing in this world that cannot be done.

Looking down at the former Gwangma with satisfied eyes, the current Gwangma slowly nodded.
