591. Episode 591
The gatekeeper of the Tower of Babel.
At that time, he didn’t even think about fighting, and before his return, Seun just passed the gatekeeper and entered the Tower of Babel.
But I didn’t forget to learn about the gatekeeper as a guide for the journey.
However, at that time, even the guidebook for the journey could not identify the gatekeeper’s weaknesses.
The guy wasn’t a being that could be called a living being in the first place.
It is literally the Holy Fire itself.
It wasn’t a boss monster created to be killed, and it didn’t even fall into the concept of a monster.
‘But now it’s different.’
Even now, there wasn’t much difference from before the regression.
The guideposts on the journey still haven’t found the guy’s weak point, and the head is thought to be incapable of killing him either.
So then, what on earth is the reason? Why do I feel like I can take him down?
‘Me before and after my regression. The difference between the two.’
That’s the best hint.
Indeed, what difference does it make?
If you think about it, almost everything has changed between before and after the regression, except for the guideposts for the journey.
The level of military force, equipment, and comrades was so poor that it was difficult to even compare it to before the return.
Nevertheless, Se-Woon was able to clearly see the difference between himself before his regression and his current self.
‘divinity.’
This is it.
In fact, the gatekeeper was the Holy Fire itself, and this was the reason why Seun was able to hold him even though he was impenetrable.
– The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
– The second ability of the stigmata, ‘Frenzy’, awakens.
An attack using the power of madness.
Every time the stigmata shed light, the gatekeeper’s flames would flicker and his movements would stop for a moment.
“Yuseo-ah, are you okay?”
“Yes! Even if it doesn’t work with simple attacks, it seems like it would be possible to shake the flames by putting divinity into the sword.”
“I see! Is this how you dealt with the gatekeeper?”
The idea that divinity is the answer was confirmed by the participation of Yushua and Bryn Jar.
Both of them couldn’t reach the gatekeeper with normal attacks, but they were able to stop the gatekeeper as soon as they used divinity.
However, as soon as the reasoning is over.
“Pure White Soul. From now on, I will judge that you have no intention of walking the path of brilliant light, and I will attack you.”
The gatekeeper began to attack Seun in earnest.
Fortunately, however, Yushua and Brin Jar haven’t yet recognized him as an enemy.
“Mr. Seun!”
The gatekeeper’s flames burned even hotter and shot at Seun.
I was used to the burning pain of the Holy Fire, so rather than avoiding it, I tried to somehow receive it and counterattack.
Chewy!
Se-Woon realized what the gatekeeper meant by ‘attack’.
The white flames, which no matter how hot they were, did not cause direct injuries but only gave a burning pain like a phantom pain, began to directly hit Se-un.
The firepower was so strong that even Se-un’s skin, which had extremely high immunity to burns in Plaka, was starting to burn.
“We’ll help you!”
When Yu Seo-ah realized that Se-woon was starting to get burned, she immediately stepped forward and swung her sword at the gatekeeper.
As the ankle was cut by the divine twin swords, the flames composing the ankle shook and the center of gravity wavered.
Thanks to that, Seun was able to escape from the flames.
“No, you go first.”
“Huh? That’s too dangerous!”
“It’s okay now.”
Even if it is an attack using divinity, it can only slightly block movement and is unable to land a direct hit.
The moment the gatekeeper, who had regained his balance in an instant, was about to attack Seun again, a pure white fur coat covered Seun’s equipment.
– The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[ Fire-washed cloth ]
– A fur coat made from the fur of the fire rat, Hwagwangsu, who lives in the fire of a volcano. It is an absolute fireproof suit that protects its owner in any fire.
Fire Rat Fur Coat, Hwawanpo.
The gatekeeper’s flames surged up above him.
Hwaaaaak!
Even though he was hit directly by the white flames that burned Seun’s equipment and melted his skin, not a single soot appeared on Seun’s body.
Rather, as soon as it was hit by the flames, the fur on its white clothes stood up and it became even more beautiful and shiny.
‘But that doesn’t stop the burning pain.’
However, this is only what is visible. Although there was no direct impact, the pain felt more intense than before.
Se-Woon, who thought he had become mentally immune to moderate pain after going through various baths in Plaka, clenched his teeth and shook his fist.
It was not a pain that could be endured for long, so Se-un took action right away.
“Pure white soul, the outward appearance is just a facade. Realize your true nature and find your way.”
The gatekeeper blasted the fire rat with sparks that were sure to melt its fur coat.
The guy hasn’t dodged or blocked any attacks so far.
Even if it was an attack with divine power, it would only make the guy flinch for a moment and not be able to hit him.
To a guy who had no concept of death, defense and evasion were meaningless actions.
To that guy.

– The third technique of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Attack, is strengthened through internal energy.
The red sword strike reached me.
Even so, this too is only a moment.
It seemed like he thought he would recover right away, but the gatekeeper screamed at the unfamiliar sensation he felt right after.
“G-AAAAAHHH!”
ache.
That’s the pain of having a part of your body cut off.
The first time the gatekeeper felt it, he started going crazy and going wild.
He tried to pick up his fallen arm and put it back on, but the Holy Spirit that had fallen to the floor was no longer part of his body.
“It hurts- no, it shouldn’t hurt. But, it hurts. It hurts-!!”
Movements that seem to lack reason.
The attitude of acting like he was a god has completely disappeared.
What on earth happened? How did his arm get cut off?
The answer was simple.
– The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
– The third ability of the stigmata, ‘Ruin’, awakens.
The power of destruction.
Originally created to defeat the Outer, this power also displayed tremendous power when attacking God.
Although the guy’s body was closer to a phenomenon than a divine being, the power of destruction was still successful in tearing apart the body made of phenomena.
But, the fear the guy felt didn’t end there.
“You were so authoritarian towards us, and now you can’t stand this?”
Crunch-
Seun’s sword split the guy’s head.
I wanted to send him away in one blow, but he had realized the pain and would not take it any longer.
The attack missed slightly as the wind pushed Seun away while he was struggling and spewing flames.
Of course, that’s not all.
With Seun’s sword strike, the guy’s head, including his left eye, split diagonally and turned to ash and scattered.
“Gh …
The janitor’s scream echoed throughout the 81st floor.
It was just before the time when I was talking about a pure white soul and a path of brilliant light.
It was quite funny to see him test players by causing them to suffer burning pain while he himself was writhing in pain as if his body was being cut.
“Mr. Seun!”
“damage!”
“but…….”
“I think it would be right to leave this place. It doesn’t look like we’re going to be of much help, so wouldn’t it be right to control those heading this way?”
“……Yes, got it.”
The gatekeeper started to run wild.
The white flames bursting out in all directions were no longer at a level that Seun could block.
He was a guy who only created flames that did not cause harm under the pretext of burning away sins, and you could tell just by looking at the way Bryn Jar’s equipment glowed red as soon as it touched the fire.
“How dare you! Swing your sword against the sacred fire that guards the glorious path! I will not forgive you!”
The gatekeeper changed his attitude and launched a full-scale attack.
It’s not as simple as just stretching out your hand or swinging your fist.
He lunged forward with his arms outstretched as if to crush Se-un, and spat out fireballs from his mouth.
If the flames weren’t white, you’d think it was a demon.
‘No, it’s really weird?’
The holy fire that makes up the body of the gatekeeper.
The pure white flames were becoming increasingly turbid. Accordingly, the flames swirling around them were also gradually becoming turbid.
‘Well, it has nothing to do with me.’
It was strange, but it was something I was going to take down anyway.
Now that you know the blow will work, there’s no reason to hesitate.
– The power of ‘Sea Blast’ is strengthened according to the Black Tower’s magic.
Kwaaaa!
Seun took out a staff from his panacea and unleashed a spell containing the power of destruction.
A sea blast that causes a massive ocean tsunami.
Originally, the gatekeeper was completely immune to water magic, but this time, he couldn’t easily accept the water baptism since it was imbued with the power of destruction.
“Ghhhhhh! Stop it! Stop it! How dare you! Pouring cold water on the pure white sacred fire! I will tear that soul to shreds and burn it!”
The gatekeeper’s body was gradually pushed away.
Even as his body grew increasingly cloudy and the flames died down, his mouth continued to murmur incessantly, expressing his hostility towards Se-un.
‘He may be strong, but he’s stupid.’
It’s like fighting a child with a sword.
It is certainly dangerous, but it is an opponent that no one who knows how to deal with will ever be defeated by.
‘Well, that can’t be helped.’
The gatekeeper is immortal.
Don’t die. No, you must not die.
An existence in which the concept of death itself did not exist until now.
Even if you just stood still, the players would have figured it out on their own.
So, there’s no way I know how to fight.
“I cannot allow you to enter the path of brilliant light! Since it has come to this! Even if it means destroying the path of brilliant light! I will block your path!”
Did he realize that it was impossible to approach Seun by crossing this waterway?
The gatekeeper suddenly turned his back on Seun and ran towards the Tower of Babel, which was surrounded by holy fire.
An absurd act. However, the sacred fire that made up the gatekeeper’s body had become extremely strong.
In particular, the flames on his left leg were barely able to maintain its shape, so the sight of him limping as he moved forward was quite a sight.
“What the heck is this!”
An angel who sensed that the board was turning strangely intervened in the ordeal.
Although it was originally abnormal for an angel to be involved in anything other than the beginning and end of a trial, the gatekeeper’s actions were just as out of line.
“Stop it now! How can Seonghwa possibly think of destroying the Tower of Babel!”
“Because it is a holy fire! I cannot let that soul pass! So! I will block it even if I have to destroy the path of brilliant light!”
“Where are you talking such nonsense! Stop it right now!”
The angel shouted with all his might, but the gatekeeper’s movements did not slow down at all.
Rather, it limps even faster as if it had been stimulated.
In an instant, the guy who arrived right in front of the Tower of Babel raises his arms high.
Now beyond the turbid level, he swings his arms, stained gray by the turbidity, towards the Tower of Babel.
“No! You have to stop it… … .”
An angel with no powers, despite his bold actions in blocking the gatekeeper’s path.
Where had her lively personality disappeared? The moment the gatekeeper’s arm was about to reach her, she was trembling with tears in her eyes.
– The first skill of the North Sea Sword, North Sea Winter Season, is strengthened through internal energy.
Crunch.
A long diagonal line is carved into the shoulder of the confused gatekeeper.
Phewaaaaaaah!!
Cold sea water gushes out from the cracks, putting the flames to sleep.
The guy who didn’t give up and raised his other arm despite losing his swinging arm, now had a huge hole in his body.
– The third skill of the North Sea Sword, the North Sea Vortex, is strengthened through internal energy.
Kwaaaaat!
Within, a vortex bursts out through the hole.
“Ghaaaaaa-”
Eventually, the sacred fire that made up the gatekeeper’s body was completely scattered.
In front of him, the angel, who would have turned to ashes and died along with the gatekeeper if he had been just a second late, was looking up at Seun, the player who had saved him, with tears in his eyes.
