The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 183

“…Brother?”

Namgung slowly opened his eyes at the sound of the voice he heard.

“Are you saying you had something to do and were you still sleeping? “Ah, I was worried because there was no answer again.”

“Where is it?”

“Where are you?” We have already arrived at Incheon Port. The disembarkation work is almost complete. “We have to get off now too.”

“Is it already that time?”

Namgung nodded at Myung-hoon’s words.

“….”

He stood up and paused for a moment.

‘light.’

Even though he had been sitting for more than dozens of hours, his body did not feel tired, but rather he felt energized throughout his body.

“Why are you doing that?”

“no. “I guess it’s because I just slept soundly.”

“Well, the times I’ve seen you sleep for this long, I can count on one hand. “Is it because Somin is with me?”

Namgung chuckled at Myunghun’s words.

“….”

Somin, who was waiting for him at the door, tilted her head as if she was examining her father who came out rather than welcoming him.

“Dad, you’re a little late, right? sorry.”

“Then I will check the situation below. “Please come out slowly.”

“Sure.”

Myung-Hoon hurriedly ran down the hallway and down to the port.

“Shall we go too?”

Namgung spoke to Somin and lightly rubbed his daughter’s shoulder.

“dad.”

However, Somin did not follow him, but just stood there like the first time and called out to him.

“Yes why?”

she said

“Did you learn magic?”

Somin, who asked, and Namgung, who received the question, looked at each other with puzzled expressions.

* * *

“that’s interesting. “This is my first time seeing something like this.”

Namgung, who returned to the castle after finishing Carlos’ work for a while, looked at his daughter looking at various parts of his body with an embarrassed expression.

“It’s definitely similar to magical power… but the texture is subtly different. “How on earth did this happen?”

“Hmm… It’s true. I understand that Somin initially thought it was magical power. “It’s very similar, but if you look closely, it’s different.”

Den Howl, who was next to Somin, nodded.

“In general, magic power has certain properties that are stronger than those of the natural world, depending on the caster. “It’s like I have the ice attribute.”

He said while holding the Book of Leah and using some detection magic to examine Namgung a little more.

“I can definitely feel the energy of the natural world from Namgoong, but… it’s strange. “It is not biased toward any particular attribute.”

“If you think about it, Somin also has magical power without any attributes, but this is magical power combined with the power of the soul, called spiritual power. “It is not a force of nature.”

And another person, Roxanne, answered with her arms crossed.

“It’s not even the elemental power of a druid.”

“This is it… I feel like a lab rat.”

Namgung roughly put on the shirt he had taken off and shook his head.

“I came here in a hurry because I was surprised when they suddenly said you seemed to have magical powers.”

“What’s so surprising about having magical powers?”

“Wow, that’s surprising. “Because they don’t know how dangerous it is for someone who doesn’t have magical powers to suddenly gain magical powers.”

“…Dangerous?”

“In order for humans to manifest magical power, they must borrow magical energy from the natural world and circulate it within their bodies.”

“Hmm.”

“In order to circulate, there must be a passage of magical power within the body, like a blood vessel through which blood flows. It is no exaggeration to say that the quality of magical power is determined by how fast the blood vessels flow.”

“That would mean that a person without magic power has no magic channel. A person like that suddenly learns magic? “The human body doesn’t change that easily.”

Roxanne

grabbed Namgoong’s wrist.

“We will find a replacement for circulation.”

“Blood vessels… huh?”

“that’s right. What happens when magical power fills the veins where blood should flow? “As your magical power increases, it becomes a poison that kills you.”

Namgung nodded at her words.

“…You’re not that surprised?”

Namgoong seemed to calmly accept her meaningful words.

“Hyeolmaeksul.”

“…huh?”

“It’s an unknown secret art of the Yasha clan. “It creates a new channel called a blood vessel and sends a strange power, which can be called a kind of aura, through the body.”

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu the an anthem…

When he opened his palm, a bluish blue energy waved over it.

“Hyeonmaeksul is divided into several stages. The first stage, the strong stage, strengthens the body and changes it to suit the bloodmaeksul.”

The blue energy slowly subsided and was reabsorbed into his body.

[He had not even properly learned the stages of strength until now. However, I found out my problem through the ancient runes I obtained this time.]

“…!!”

When the nameless figure appeared, everyone except Somin, who could sense spirits, widened their eyes.

[As a result, the blocked blood vessels were unclogged, and I was finally able to fully realize the level of strength.]

“It’s called blood vessel techniques… You’re talking about the technique related to the elixir that you asked me to do at the time.”

“that’s right.”

Namgung responded to Den’s words.

“Until now, I hadn’t learned it properly, but it was just strengthening my physical abilities, so I needed an elixir to improve my blood vessel skills.”

“But… this isn’t at the level where we can make a leap forward. “It’s beyond imagination that proper blood pressure treatment can have such an effect.”

“why?”

“Namgoong, don’t you have blood vessels that can channel this type of power into your body, not through magical channels?”

“yes.”

“And after looking into it now, the reason why I feel that the magical power and texture are different is because the blood vessel is not simply a type of power, but a passage through which all types of power can flow and be sent out, regardless of the type.”

“So… you’re saying that Namgung can learn magical power and elemental power at the same time?”

“of course. “Not only that, it could be magical power or other powers that we don’t know about.”

Park Hyo-joo, the last person gathered, couldn’t help but be impressed by Den’s words.

“Don’t make people expect something by saying something out of nowhere. In the end, blood vessels are just passages. There’s nothing to let out, but there’s only a passage, so what are you doing? “That’s just broke.”

“You can learn. “I will teach you.”

Somehow, Den spoke more excitedly than Namgung.

“If you want, you can learn elemental magic. Kuhuran might like it.”

[It’s very popular.]

Mumyeong said to Namgung, laughing at people’s reactions.

But ironically, at that moment, Namgoong remembered his father’s words.

“As I learned how to catch this and that, I was able to see things that other people couldn’t see…or didn’t pay attention to.”

When Namgung remembered his words, he smiled bitterly without realizing it.

It was as if fate was telling him to become the one who opens the black route.

“it’s okay. I have no intention of learning this or that. Instead, I will focus on what I can do.”

“Are you talking about necromancy?”

“that’s right. If the blood vein can pass through all kinds of power and amplify that power, it would be right to focus on necromancy rather than learning something new.”

“Hmm….”

“Because the way to reach the ultimate is to focus on one thing rather than learning various abilities and becoming confused.”

“What he says is not wrong.”

“It’s unfortunate… but I understand. “If you need any help, please let me know at any time.”

Dan and the rest nodded at Roxanne’s words.

“I will do it.”

“dad. know? Necromancy is also a technique related to the soul, and if it is related to the soul… I can be of help too.”

Looking at his daughter who had grown up and worried about him, Namgung smiled and lightly stroked her hair.

“Okay, I know. You do not have to worry.”

“huh. okay.”

Finally, after Somin left, Namgung was able to comfortably check his condition.

[He’s a kid with good instincts. I can’t believe he immediately recognized the changes caused by blood vessel magic.]

“No matter what anyone says, he is the child with the most outstanding magical abilities.”

[But I still don’t think I recognized that. The true meaning of blood vessels.]

Namgung nodded at the nameless words.

▶ The creation of blood clots has been completed.

▶ I have learned blood vessel technique – Yu (柔).

Namgung slowly swept down his stomach as he felt the heavy energy beneath his danjeon.

[The stage of Yu (柔) simply pierces the blood vessels and allows energy to flow, softening the body. But that is not the true meaning of Yu.]

Woo-woo…

As Mu-myeong slowly stretched out his hand, the power flowing in all the blood vessels centered around the blood cluster created in Nam-gung’s body and began to move as if being sucked in.

[Controlling the flow. That is the power that can be obtained by reaching the stage of true Yu.] When

Namgung

clenched his fist, an air current in the form of a round ring like a bracelet was created on his wrist.

The number of rings continued to increase, and when there were five, they came together again.

[The rings called Jinhwan represent the power you can produce with each one. In other words, 5 pieces means that it can produce 5 times the power.]

Myung-myeong said while looking at the ring that Nam-gung created.

“Five times… It’s hard to estimate.”

Even as he said that, Namgoong twitched his lips without realizing it.

[Well, there is a lot of time ahead. It’s something you just have to get used to slowly. Because it will take time for your body to accept the energy of the blood vessels.]

Nameless said to Namgung.

[Because the human body is finite, unlike ours. If you apply too much force, it may explode.]

“The problem is the body.”

[There is no need to pursue only strength. Having a body is proof of being alive.]

“If you’re not alive… wouldn’t there be such restrictions?”

[What are you talking about? Are you saying you would even die to become stronger?]

Namgung shook his head in response to his question.

“no. Of course I have no intention of dying. “But there are already a lot of dead people around me.”

Grumbling…!!

At that moment, As appeared around Namgung.

“Focusing on necromancy does not simply mean raising the level of my necromancy and increasing the number of soul soldiers.”

[No way…]

“What’s important is the strength of the individual rather than the number of soldiers. “I plan to teach blood vessel techniques to the soul soldiers.”

[Do you know what that means? Do you know that in the unlikely event that a ministered spirit body becomes stronger than its owner, it may get out of control?]

“I know.”

[If you do it wrong, you could be eaten by the soldiers!!]

“Do you really think that? Do you think I’m weaker than my soldiers?”

[…You’re crazy.]

Moo-myeong burst out laughing without realizing it, as if he was dumbfounded by his words.

“Yes, you can’t survive without going crazy.”
