Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 192
Kukwakwakwakwakwakwakwa-!
Blue energy swirls around.
“This power! I’ll give it back to you!”
Star fragment.
Dozens of alien stones forcibly transplanted into Seong Il-hwan’s body.
There, the magical power of the outer space stretched out in a skein, condensed into two daggers, and exploded in his hands.
[dare-!]
Jieeeeeeing-!
A blue beam of light shot from the angry statue’s eyes and split the wall in half.
[You insignificant mortal!]
Krrrr!
Kwarrrrrrung!
The chapel began to collapse under the power of the extremely angry god.
But the chapel was already meaningless.
Because the ‘Debuff: Discipline of the Temple of Carthenon’ that had already been dominating the chapel was broken.
Phew!
Finally, the compulsive force that had been squeezing Suho’s magic power disappeared.
“good.”
Suho’s eyes glowed eerily.
That gaze crossed in the air with that of Seong Il-hwan, who was blocking the statue from above.
Seong Il-hwan was talking to Su-ho with his eyes.
‘Now, show me where it is.’
How much has he grown since then!
Even though it happened suddenly, Seong Il-hwan noticed quite a few things as soon as he saw Su-ho.
How could I not know?
He was the father who raised Sung Jin-woo, a son he was proud of more than anyone else.
Because he was a warrior who struggled to protect his son in a place no one knew about, even if no one recognized him.
therefore…….
‘No explanation needed.’
It was already clear to Seong Il-hwan’s eyes.
‘Show me your skills.’
At the feet of the guardian.
That great shadow that connects with the deep darkness.
‘How deep is your darkness!’
My grandson, whom I always thought was just a child, has grown so much!
“Get up!”
The order to protect has been given.
Phew!
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
At that forced command, new shadow soldiers rose from the corpses of the foreign believers who had been melted by the light of the god.
[Shadow Fanatic Lv.1]
[Shadow Fanatic Lv.1]
[Shadow Fanatic Lv.1]
Kwaaaaah-!
Kyaaaaaaaah!
The foreign missionaries who returned from the dead were truly evil spirits.
From them poured out a fierce hatred for the false god who had exploited and betrayed their blind faith while they were alive.
“All forces, charge.”
―――――!
At the command of the Guardian, the Shadow Legion roared in unison and advanced towards the statue of Itarim.
[The abilities of shadow soldiers fighting above the caster’s shadow increase by 50%.]
The monarch’s domain amplified its wrath-filled power.
[Hahahahaha! You detestable foreign news! I’ll destroy you!]
Kim Chul, who had been more enthusiastic than anyone else while alive, now took the lead and rushed to the new statue of Itarim.
[You’re back, Iron!]
Berga was delighted and shouted at the battlefield from above Kim Cheol, or Iron’s head.
Kwarrung!
The statue’s giant feet crushed the shadow soldiers without mercy.
[Harmakan uses ‘Skill: Thorn of Pain’.]
[Harmakan uses ‘Skill: Damage Amplification’.]
Kookwakwang!
Suho showed off all the power he had.
[Use ‘Skill: Rigid Body Technique’.]
[Use ‘Skill: Giant’s Armor’.]
[The spirit of ‘Pet: Gray’ is possessed by the priest’s body.]

[Use ‘Skill: Wind of the Grassland’.]
[Movement speed temporarily increases by 30%.]
[Temporarily increases attack speed by 30%.]
Choaaaah!
As Suho’s body grew, his silver hair began to flutter like a lion’s mane.
“her.”
Seong Il-hwan couldn’t help but feel a little bewildered at Soo-ho’s appearance that had changed beyond recognition.
When did my tiny grandson grow up so much… … and turn into such a fly?
[Use ‘Skill: Storm Slash’.]
Kwarrrrrrrr!
However, just like its appearance, the storm of blades swirling from the Guardian Sword attacked the statue with tremendous force.
“Eww!”
“Run away… …!”
As the chapel collapsed, the foreign believers scattered in panic.
Even the demons outside the chapel were bewildered.
That was when.
[My servants! Fight!]
Hwaaaaak!
Their expressions, which had been flustered by the roar of the new statue, suddenly changed.
They had long since lost their original selves, tainted by the divinity of Itarim, and to them, who had only the instilled faith left, the commands of God were absolute.
They rushed back into the collapsing building with their blue-eyed eyes filled with ghostly energy and attacked the Guardians’ Legion.
However, hunters who knew nothing and were purely using the black market were different.
“Hey, what is that?!”
“A moving statue… …!”
The hunters’ eyes widened at the sight of a giant statue suddenly appearing outside the chapel building as it collapsed.
But even though they came here to evade taxes, they were still active hunters.
Without saying a word, everyone instinctively pulled up all their magical power and prepared for battle.
but.
Flash!
“… … !”
The stardust necklaces hanging around their necks suddenly reacted to the presence of the god and began to emit a blue light.
The light was faint compared to the star fragments, but it was enough.
“Huh?!”
“… … !”
“Mom, why is there a necklace… …!”
The stardust necklaces they wore around their necks held their bodies in midair like chains.
As if possessed by an evil spirit.
“What, what is this――!”
“Tsk tsk!”
The hunters struggled in the air, emitting strange auras as they struggled to remove the necklaces that were strangling them.
at that time.
pop-!
“… … !”
Blood burst out.
The hunter’s eyes became bloodshot as a large hole appeared in the center of his body.
And Hwang Dong-soo absentmindedly pulls out the fist that came out of his body and shakes off the blood.
… … thud.
He clasped his hands together in reverence as he watched the corpses crumbling and losing their lives before him.
“I offer sacrifices to the great God.”
Saaaah-
At that moment, the magical power remaining in the dead hunter’s body scattered like light dust.
And that power was completely absorbed into the Itarim god as a ‘sacrifice’.
“Eek… … !”
The hunters who witnessed the shocking sight struggled with all their might to tear off the necklace.
Knock knock!
“Okay, okay… … !”
pop!
“… … I offer a sacrifice.”
Another sacrifice was added.
Unlike Seong Il-hwan, Hwang Dong-soo has already been completely tainted by Itarim’s divinity.
He glared at the non-believers, Seong Su-ho and Seong Il-hwan, who were engaged in a fierce battle with the statue of Itarim with his blue, ghostly eyes.
Crunch.
“How dare these blasphemous bastards!”
He killed all the hunters in front of him with an extremely ferocious momentum and jumped into the battlefield to protect the statue.
Flash!
Just like Seong Il-hwan, blue energy emanated from his body in streams.
But then.
chin.
“I guess it hasn’t hit me yet.”
Hwang Dong-soo gritted his teeth as he glared at the white-haired old man, Seong Il-hwan, who was blocking his path.
“Seong Il-hwan!”
“Let’s stop interfering with what our grandchildren are doing and go play among ourselves as old people.”
“Don’t be so cocky! I was just letting my guard down earlier!”
“okay?”
Seong Il-hwan just smiled faintly at Hwang Dong-su’s words, which were shouted with evil intent.
“Do you really think so?”
The conversation could not continue any further.
Because Hwang Dong-soo attacked him with all his might.
Boom!
A S-class villain who became the high priest of Itarim and a S-class hunter who escaped from the false god of his own will.
As their powers clashed, the magical power of outer space tore apart the air.
* * *
[Your Majesty! The power of the statue grows stronger as people die!]
As Ber had said, Itarim’s statue was absorbing the power of the foreign believers and hunters wearing stardust necklaces when they died.
Even the scratches that had been torn apart by the Shadow Legion’s attacks were instantly healed.
‘It won’t end like this!’
Even while dealing with Itarim’s statue, Suho was calmly observing the situation.
One thing was certain.
The giant statue you’re fighting now isn’t the real Itarim.
‘Because there’s no way my father would have allowed Itarim to come to Earth.’
So, in the end, this guy is nothing more than a moving stone statue imbued with some of Itarim’s power.
‘At best, it’s just a clone like Arsha. And the fuel that moves the clone is that blue magic!’
Shhh!
Suho maximized his senses.
Then, in his vision, he saw the magical power of the dead flowing from all directions into the statue of Itarim.
And at the end of all that flow… … !
“found!”
The guardian who was attacking the statue suddenly changed direction and soared upward.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
[… … !]
The guardian running vertically while stepping on the statue’s huge body is aiming for none other than the statue’s neck!
There was a large necklace carved there, seemingly just a simple decoration, and the spirits of the dead were gathering there.
Jieeeeeeing-!
The panicked Shin Sang shouted at Hwang Dong Soo while emitting a blue beam of light to stop Su Ho.
[High Priest! Stop it!]
However, Hwang Dong-su was not in a position to follow that strict order.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Seong Il-hwan was pressing down on Hwang Dong-su with truly vicious force.
“Khak… … !”
Finally, blood started spitting out of Hwang Dong-soo’s mouth.
I really didn’t want to admit it, but now I had no choice but to do it.
Seong Il-hwan.
This white-haired old man, who was supposed to succeed him as the second high priest… … !
‘strong!’
That too, overwhelmingly!
‘Why on earth! We must be in the same situation!’
Even though he was helpless against Seong Il-hwan’s power, Hwang Dong-su gritted his teeth in resentment.
What is the difference between me and that old man who has grown old?
“They’re both S-class, and they have the same number of foreign stones embedded in their bodies! Why on earth is there such a difference… …!”
“You’re asking the obvious.”
Seong Il-hwan responded calmly, chasing after Hwang Dong-su, who was possessed by evil.
“It’s the difference in the bowl.”
“What the… … nonsense is that!”
To Hwang Dong-soo, who cannot remember his past life, this would be nothing more than nonsense.
But from Seong Il-hwan’s perspective, there was no answer as kind as this.
Hwang Dong-soo.
At one time, this man was an S-class hunter, and later, he was one of the noble souls who fought to protect the world as a soldier for his son, Sung Jin-woo.
but.
The mission given to Seong Il-hwan was of a different level.
The moment Seong Il-hwan raised his fist, the magic power of the outer universe enveloped his fist.
Hwang Dong-soo’s eyes grew wide as if they were going to tear at the incredible power.
Whioooo!
The light of the beginning.
The ‘Fragments of Radiance’, now known as ‘The Ruler’.
At one time, they entrusted their power to Seong Il-hwan to prevent the advent of the Shadow Lord.
And then, midway, the situation changed and new instructions were given.
[Protect the Shadow Lord.]
And to achieve that goal, it was absolutely impossible for the hunters with only ‘state-level’ power to do so.
Who is the Shadow Lord?
He was the ‘greatest shard of radiance’ and the most powerful of all rulers.
At the same time, he was the most powerful of all monarchs, the King of Darkness.
In order to stop him and protect him, what must we do…?
“How much strength do you think it would have taken?”
“… … !”
With those words, Seong Il-hwan’s fist slammed down towards Hwang Dong-soo.
Yes.
Seong Il-hwan.
He fought a lonely battle, torturing himself until his body crumbled, with only one thought in mind: to protect his son.
He was the most brilliant hunter of all.
The vessel of Seong Il-hwan’s soul, who suffered that sublime and terrible end and came back to life…
“It’s not enough yet.”
Extraterrestrial magic? Extraterrestrial stones?
With this much strength, his vessel was not even half full.
bang!
“… … !”
“Come back when you die.”
That was the last memory Hwang Dong-soo remembered.
