Episode 1326
“That’s too bad.”
Asperia, the Eternal Saint, spoke thus and smacked her lips.
“Then I have no choice but to resort to some coercive means to get you. I’ve been without arms, and this is pretty-”
As she raised her fingertips, the two giant gods’ eyes lit up.
“It was okay.”
Chaaaaaaaaaaah!
A huge metal-like thorn rose from the ground without warning. Simon quickly turned his body to avoid it.
“Huh!”
His elbow was slightly cut and blood spurted out.
Chomp!
Choaack!
Simon ran around the ground frantically, avoiding the thorns that rose and disappeared one after another.
‘Is that guy?’
One of the two divine beasts that Asperia moves.
A divine being whose body is not visible as it is below ground, with only its face sticking out above ground. A lion’s head can be seen licking its lips and chewing, with its dirty mane hanging on the ground, reminiscent of a white mop.
Something that looked like a tail was poking out from a distance and shaking.
Chaaaaaaaah!
The thorn lightly grazed Simon’s forehead, causing blood to flow out.
‘The most powerful piercing weapon… …!’
I immediately noticed that they were ‘the kind of attacks that can’t be defended against’. Each and every one of them was an instant death attack that could penetrate any kind of armor and kill the opponent. The opponent was firing off such instant death attacks indiscriminately.
‘but.’
Simon’s heart begins to beat slowly.
‘There is a pattern.’
Percussion.
Simon stretched out both feet, touched the ground, and turned his shoulders momentarily.
Choaaaah!
A thorn rose up, lightly brushing his shoulder. This time, Simon stepped forward with his right foot, then simultaneously moved both feet back.
Chaaaaaaaah!
This time, thorns shot out from the front. Simon twisted his body and dodged at the shortest possible distance. The white thorns rose and fell repeatedly.
‘The direction of the thorns changes depending on my position and actions. And the maximum number of thorns that rise at a time is three.’
Choa!
Choaaaah!
Simon’s hair, cut off by the thorns, fluttered. The original bluish color was slightly revealed beneath the hair that had been dyed for makeup.
“It’s ecstatic.”
She raised her hand.
“That’s an amazing judgment. It makes me want to know more about you.”
Taaak!
As she snapped her fingers, a white magic circle appeared over the lion god’s head. Simon’s eyes lit up.
‘Reinforcement series divine magic!’
Before the thought could even finish, five thorns simultaneously shot out from all sides of Simon.
Kak!
Kagagagagak!
Simon barely managed to raise his chakram and catch the thorns that were coming up. Sparks flew out. Simon immediately threw himself out and escaped, and new thorns rose up in their place.
Choke choke choke choke choke choke choke!
The number of thorns more than doubled, and they rose in different patterns. Simon ran, trampling the ground.
‘There’s no end to this!’
Asperia, the ruler of Arok, is a saint who has reached the pinnacle of new mathematics. As soon as she read the pattern, she strengthened the new water and changed the pattern.
I had a feeling that it might be better than Lethe in new mathematics.
‘We need to close the gap!’
Papak!
Simon raised his whole body with divinity and increased his speed while applying various blessings including ‘Haste’. With white thorns rising and falling from all directions, Simon’s bold digging in between them was a sight that seemed like a work of art.
Simon, who had closed the distance between himself and Asperia, opened his palm and bit into his mouth the white chakram in his right hand.
<Lethe Original – La Escream>
Kiiiiiing!
In an instant, a fiercely spinning spear formed from the magic circle, and all kinds of blessings wrapped around it like a belt. Simon shouted and sent it flying.
“Ahem.”
Asperia just stood there defenseless and laughed.
Ssuk-
Aurebon, a divine beast that seemed to be a mixture of a bird and a dragon that had been hiding, spread its wings and wrapped around her body. When La Escream collided with Aurebon’s wings,
Aaaa …
It shattered like a glass window.
‘what?’
Simon stopped walking immediately. La Escream was clearly a technique made of divinity, but the moment it touched those wings, it changed into a glass-like quality.
Within moments, the shattered glass shards were absorbed into Aurebon’s body, and Aurebon flapped his wings wildly. With that, the same ‘La Escream’ magic circle that Simon had used unfolded.
‘It’s different from the Aurebon I know!’
The Aurebon that Asperia handles has become transparent, unlike before. The ability it uses has also changed.
“I’m sure the hero has handled Aurebon before, but I don’t think he knew it could be handled like this.”

She said, raising her fingertips.
<La Escream>
Chaaaa …
Dozens of divine spears descended from the sky, spinning. Just as Simon was about to retreat, he flinched and had to force himself back.
Immediately, white thorns sprang up, blocking Simon’s retreat.
‘This is driving me crazy!’
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
La Escream continued to bombard Simon’s surroundings, and thorns stirred up the ground. Dust and noise rose everywhere.
Phew!
Soon, Simon was seen running through the clouds of dust, blood flowing out of his body, holding a chakram in both hands.
“Wonderful! My hero!”
She raised the corners of her mouth and spread her palms.
“I was drawn to you from the moment I first saw you! Why is that? What is it about you that makes you so attracted to me? I want to know!”
Whoosh whoosh!
This time, it’s the Sacred Flame Realm.
A flame the size of a rock, white on the inside and red on the outside, bloomed on Asperia’s palm, and in an instant, it swelled to the size of a house.
“Are you still hiding something? Show me a cooler side of you!”
She threw the red flame at Aurebon, a divine being with a transparent mirror-like surface. Simon made an ‘Ah’ expression.
‘Is there no higher level than the commander of the legion among the saints?’
The flames shattered like glass, and Aurebon swung his wings, sucking up the saint’s flames and spreading them into the sky. Countless red flames spread out in the sky, blazing, and then fell toward the ground.
Firepower enough to burn down the entire Arok.
Simon gritted his teeth and charged forward, deploying a divine barrier over his body.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaah!
Even though the surroundings were becoming a sea of fire, Simon remained calm. He ran with all his might, generating divinity in both feet, and moved while catching the point of impact of the falling flames.
<Asperia Original – Latigaso de Luz>
Kiiing-
Then Asperia spread out a golden whip in her hand and swung it at the white lion. The lion’s face trembled.
Kookung!
Simon stopped walking abruptly. Nearly fifty thorns rose up, surrounding the wide area, and began to advance and close in on Simon. At the same time, a sacred flame of flames, reflected by Aurebon and made more powerful, fell from the sky.
“ruler!”
Asperia put her hand on her chest and smiled expectantly.
“What do we do now?”
Phew! Phew!
The flames spread over a vast area, as she watched with expectant eyes.
Phew!
A bolt of lightning shot out as it walked through the flames. Even the thorns that rose late could not keep up with its speed.
“Ugh!”
The flying chariot and Akalion, who was leading the chariot, were quickly leaving the battlefield like lightning.
Simon, who had climbed onto the tram, was panting for breath, wiping the blood flowing from his nose.
‘The opponent is too strong for me to fight with just the strength I have right now!’
The opponent is an active veteran saint.
Even in Peon Mode, it was a formidable opponent that could not guarantee victory, and to deal with it, at least a mother was needed, like when defeating the fake saint.
While Simon was racking his brain, wondering how to respond.
“!”
Suddenly, in the direction of the carriage, the sky flashed and transparent wings spread out. Asperia was riding on them.
‘Before I knew it!’
“Me with the flying god-”
As she gestured, the massive wings of the Aurebon struck the chariot hard.
“There’s no way I can keep up with it at speed.”
Tear-rrrrrrrrr!
Due to the impact of the wing, the tank was thrown in the opposite direction and crashed to the ground.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
Akalion and the chariot hit the ground, received a great impact, and rolled for a while before finally stopping.
Simon rose from the thick dust, groaning.
“Everyone, are you okay?”
Before I knew it, the tank had disintegrated and I could see Ha-yang and Kka-mang lying on the ground with their eyes spinning around. Akalion had also lost consciousness.
Flutter!
I thought I heard the sound of clothes fluttering in the sky, but Asperia was already chasing after me.
Simon quickly healed the injured Akalion first, and then placed him in the sacred subspace along with Hayang.
‘At least I can move.’
-Meow!
Only one black cat came to his senses. Simon materialized the black cat into a chakram and held it in his left hand.
Percussion.
Meanwhile, Asperia is seen landing lightly on the ground. She walks toward me with the sound of her shoes clicking.
“Even if all the other residents run away, I cannot tolerate you running away from me and Arok.”
“… … .”
Simon observed the situation calmly.
The divinity of Aurebon, who passed by the chariot, is not felt. The divine beast that causes thorns to rise has not yet arrived.
If she is alone.
‘Fight now!’
Thud!
Simon rushed towards Asperia while equipping a black chakram. The black chakram shimmered with divinity, and Simon quickly closed the distance between her and swung his chakram.
Boohoo!
Asperia dodged the attack by stepping back slightly. Simon stretched his legs forward and swung the black chakrams he held with both hands fiercely.
Boohoo! Boong! Boohoo!
It was a fierce attack that was enough to cause afterimages, but Asperia dodged with light movements, as if she was skilled at fighting.
Then she opened her palm and blew, and red ash spread out toward Simon.
“Huh!”
For a moment, Simon’s mind was shaken by happiness. At the same time, the ‘objectification’ of the black thing he was wearing in his left hand was released, and the thing fell to the grass in a swaying state.
“What should I do? This woman is the queen of the gods.”
She smiled triumphantly.
“New math techniques don’t work.”
“then!”
Oh my!
Simon picked up the black one and threw it into the sacred space, then ran so that his hair flew and kicked her from the side.
‘For the Holy Spirit!’
Tear-rrrrrrr!
Asperia, who lightly received the blow with her wrist, did not move at all. Only the cracked ground around her was proof of the destructive power of Simon’s attack.
Simon turned his body and continued to throw straight punches, but Asperia also took them gracefully as if she was doing ballet.
‘What kind of martial art is that!’
Her movements seemed to defy gravity. She leaped into the air or kicked away fists with flexible movements of her arms.
Even her two legs suddenly shot into the air and fell like hammers towards Simon. Simon quickly retreated to avoid it. Boom! The ground around them split violently.
“You can’t beat her to that extent.”
Her eyes widened as she spoke. Suddenly, a purple lightning bolt poured down in front of her.
<Chaos Spear>
Kwarrrrrrrr!
She managed to block it by deploying a defensive magic circle.
“That’s amazing. I thought you were a cornered rat.”
Fired! Fired!
A purple spark was flying from Simon’s hand. Asperia smiled for the first time, as if she had become wary.
“You were hiding your teeth.”
She roughly extended her right arm. The red ash flowed from her palm, quickly spreading past Simon and into the nearby forest.
The power of a saint that she possesses allows her to control humans, but the most important power is to be loved by all divine beings.
“Aurebon.”
Flutter!
Suddenly, a transparent bird, as if looking through a mirror, was fixed in the sky with both arms outstretched.
And all the divine beasts living in the Forest of the Gods were controlled by the ash, and they all started to rain down long-range attacks, including divine breath, on Aurebon in the sky.
A sweat broke out on Simon’s forehead.
‘This is foul play.’
“Shall we try increasing the intensity?”
All of the divine beasts’ attacks turned into glass shards and were sucked into Aurebon’s body, and all of those attacks expanded and multiplied and poured down on Simon with a fierce momentum.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
Kukukukukukukukung!
Thick clouds of dust covered the surroundings. She watched with a smile.
Ss …
But when the dust cleared, a huge shield resembling a turtle shell was spread out next to Simon, who was sitting on the ground.
Her eyes turned sharp.
“Do you dare to disturb my wife?”
Knock knock.
Someone appeared in front of Simon. A small gazelle, or perhaps a giraffe with a short neck. Instead of horns, it had a round thing like a cotton ball on its head.
The very same beast that Simon had fed. The last of the beasts of paradise was protecting Simon.
“you……!”
-Dad!
Shinsoo looked at Simon and let out a small cry as if greeting him.
