Chapter 251
Episode 251
[…Value? That’s funny. You think you’re smart, right? I said great things about achieving divine death, but look. Ultimately, a phase war? It’s just something that happens under our rules.]
The two looked like they were going to clash at any moment, but Klipt kept his distance from Namgung and spoke.
[It looks like they are trying to find out what his power is.]
[It has to be that way. Even if the new name has not yet been decided, the status is the status. Because Namgung clearly has the power of a god.]
[Honestly, I’m curious too. What kind of power has he truly awakened?]
The people in the audience were equally alert.
“That would be a really funny thing to say. If my target were you, it would be acceptable, but….”
Kieeeeeee—――!!!!!
At that moment, the shape of a pure white snake appeared behind Namgung’s back.
“To me, you are nothing more than a passing gateway.”
Kwaaaang…!!!
A huge white snake opened its mouth and flew towards Klipt.
[…snake? Humans are like that. I’m afraid someone might be the revealer of Yor, so even the power I’ve gained can’t escape that level.]
The appearance of the snake summoned by Namgung was daunting, but the moment Clift saw it, he laughed at it as if it was insignificant.
[The power of six directions with no blind spots.]
The arms floating next to him stopped at their respective positions.
Jiiiing…!!
Each weapon pointed to a clip in the center like an arrow.
[Destroy the enemy.]
As the weapons glowed, a blue film was created around him. As soon as the barrier was erected, his arms flew towards Namgung.
[…Win or lose.]
The other Aspects did not refute Yor’s words.
[It looks like the clipt guy didn’t notice. It would be a waste to call him a god of six directions.]
[Well, if any of us were there, we wouldn’t have noticed. Lucky for us. Thanks to Klipt being the scapegoat, I was able to clearly see Namgung’s power.]
[I don’t know if I should call this luck. After seeing that power, I think I have no choice but to admit even more that that guy is a monster.]
The Aspects looked at Namgung with stern expressions at Yor’s words.
[How on earth did you get that power?]
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
As if mocking their doubts, a sharp roar erupted and black smoke rose from the stage.
[…Ugh!!!]
The person who jumped out of the thick smoke was none other than Klipt.
[Keeeeek―!!]
With a sharp roar, the white snake of Namgung pounces on the fallen Klipt’s thigh! asked.
[Kkkkkk!! [Let go of this!!]
Clift struggled to shake off the snake, but the more he tried, the more the sharp teeth dug into his flesh.
[…Nonsense! How can someone who has just gained the power of a phase penetrate my barrier?]
“Because there are levels of power of the phase. “Isn’t it the power of the six directions that is said to be the weakest among the eight phases?”
[Shut up…!!]
Sigh—!!
Klipt’s appearance disappeared.
However, Namgung swung his sword to the left without even turning his head, as if he knew where he would appear.
Phew! Kugaga River-!!
His sword struck down and stuck in Clift’s shoulder as if it were an axe. Unable to overcome the weight of the embedded sword, Clift fell to one knee and collapsed.
[How…]
“It looks like you have a lot of questions since a while ago. I see you just keep asking. “Don’t you think you’ll find out for yourself?”
[Spatial techniques in the six directions are unpredictable…]
“Even if you talk about jumping over space, in the end, it’s just a means. No matter where I run, my destination is clearly set in the end, so it makes no sense to not be able to predict it.]
[But…!!]
“You have the ability to go to all kinds of places, but you don’t seem to know where you are. ”
[…What?]
“Even if you struggle, it won’t hurt.”
With a low voice, Namgung struck down the sword stuck in his shoulder with all his strength.
Kzzzzzz that is…!!!
The huge sword slowly sliced Klipt’s body diagonally.
[Kaaaaaaah!!!]
God’s scream rang out across the stage, and the sound of Klipt’s body being ground apart was clearly audible to the ears of the Aspects.
Tsuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu the…
As the smoke that filled the stage disappeared, the place where the stage had been was gone and a huge snake was coiled up.
Inside were the bodies of Namgung and Clypt, cut in half.
[Klipt may be the weakest among us, but he loses like that in vain. It’s truly unbelievable power….]
Ssssssssssssssssssssssshh…!!
When Namgung withdrew his sword, the shape of the white snake behind him disappeared.
[What kind of power did you get? Even if Klipt’s spatial technique was recognized with the eyes of a white snake, that monstrous power cannot be explained by that.]
[Is this really a power that humans can obtain…]
The faces of the Aspects were filled with doubts.
[He must have pulled some kind of trick.]
[If you’re curious, just ask him directly. I think a sword will fly instead of an answer. I have to admit what I have to admit. The guy is strong. Among us, there are only a handful of people who can stand up one-on-one and fight him in a friendly manner.]
[Yor, you seem to be enjoying this situation right now, right? Our comrade is now dead.]
[You shouldn’t think like that. This isn’t the death of a colleague. Now I have a new colleague.]
[What?]
[Honestly, shouldn’t you be happy? The stronger he is, the more likely he is to truly destroy Lan and Wu.]
[As long as that strength does not turn into a blade and be pointed at us.]
Yor looked at the Aspect who spoke the last words.
It was Durga, the watcher of the sun and moon.
‘A quick-witted guy.’
Even when he inserted the door into the black dragon’s stomach, unlike the other Aspects, he was able to see through Yor’s intentions.
[It’s stupid, if you want to use a knife, you have to hold the handle, but that’s what happens when you hold the blade. Don’t worry.]
Yor instead scolded Durga and stood up.
[Because what we need to do now is celebrate the birth of a new phase.]
▶ The six-directional connector Clipt has disappeared.
▶ His revelation power disappears.
▶ The winner of a phase battle can absorb the power of the loser.
Clift’s body crumbled into powder and disappeared and seeped into Namgung’s body.
▶ The phase war has ended.
▶ A new status was born.
▶ The newly created status can be given a new name to be used in the future.
Clap- clap- clap-.
After Sang Sang’s corpse was absorbed into his body, Namgung turned his head to the sound of applause.
[It’s a white snake… It’s the power of a revealer of the seven snakes. Very nice looking thing? Actually, the Klitt guy is of insignificant status.]
It was Yor who entered the broken stage.
[I didn’t expect it to be this overwhelming. You have become more of a monster than I thought.]
“If you’re celebrating, open the last door of the Three Poison Gate. “I wonder what’s inside the gold door.”
[Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk… Now that you have to make your report, are you still greedy for things of a different level?]
“Because the more things like that the better.”
[Okay, okay. Come and see sometime. I don’t know if there’s anything useful for you. There are more important things to do right now.]
“Important things?”
[Determining your divine name.]
Yor spoke to Namgung with sparkling eyes.
[My name is not simply a title for status. The clearer the divine name, the stronger the power of the phase.]
“Should I make the divine name right now?”
[Not really. It’s okay to think slowly. Even though I am no longer human, I still have too much time.]
Namgung nodded.
[…Congratulations. I never thought he would really take Klipt’s place.]
[I don’t know what kind of trick they used, but don’t forget that we are always watching closely.]
The Aspects warned, but their words had no effect on Namgung.
Namgung actually snorted at them.
“Actually, this isn’t enough to deal with the Primeval Aspect. “Would you like to eat it too?”
[what? This bastard…!!]
“If you want to be crushed in a coil of snakes, come visit me anytime. Because I don’t run away.”
Despite his provocative words, the dignitaries were unable to refute anything and eventually just turned around.
[Why don’t you be gentle? Ultimately, you will need their help to deal with the Primordial Aspects to save your daughter.]
“I have sufficiently proven my strength. “Whether they like it or not, they will now have no choice but to expect my help.”
[Anyway, looking at you makes me feel uneasy because it feels like I’m walking on a tightrope.]
Yor looked at Namgung and shook his head.
[I understand their distrust. In fact, there has never been anyone who has ascended to a position of stature through the Octagonal Crown. Because everyone was destroyed in the phase war. Even if he gained power, he was killed by other Aspects before he could get used to that power. But you…]
He was about to say something but closed his mouth.
“Too strong?”
[…unlucky, but true. Even though you are strong now, you are too strong. Don’t make it seem like you just discovered the power of the phase.]
“Really? “Then I guess you have a lot of experience.”
[It’s not much… I know you have more experience than others. Because you regressed.]
Namgung chuckled at his words.
“I may now know more about carnival than you think.”
[…I heard that the power of the crown was used in the upper levels of the tower. I’m sure he didn’t do some trick with Ran.]
“Are you wary of me too?”
[It’s not a warning, it’s a worry.]
Yor answered in a grumpy voice.
“don’t worry. “I have no intention of lending a hand to them.”
[Then how on earth did you get that ridiculous power? No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand it!]
“If I could lend you a hand…”
Namgung said in a low voice as he walked.
“It’s only humans.”
[Human…?]
Yor frowned as if he didn’t understand what he was saying.
[No, what kind of person can help that monster?]
But his doubts did not last as long as he thought. Ironically, it was because he had the answer.
The person who knows the most about Carnival.
Because there was only one person.
[…Lu(淚).]
He was the first human.
