Episode 220 Above the Sky -2-
I also looked at the high priest calmly.
“Did you know I was coming?”
“of course.”
The high priest nods his head slowly.
“How could I not know that you ruined the great undertaking we had prepared for decades? You are what you are. I thought we would meet in Seoul, but I didn’t expect to see you here.”
“Wasn’t that guy the commander earlier? No matter what, I didn’t know he would sacrifice the commander.”
“Huh.”
He lifted the staff that the high priest was holding.
The jaguar head on the end of the staff emitted an ominous red light.
“That was the role of the commander. The commander offered his spirit and body to the Dark Jaguar, so he will serve as fertilizer even after death. Come on, you enemy of the sect. Be swallowed by the Dark Jaguar and become its vessel of flesh!”
A red light comes over us.
Black darkness spreads like waves.
I could have used the Ring of Escape hidden in the armory, but I didn’t.
[Sacrifice of the Mountain]
The name of the special ability and great magic that the High Priest is currently using.
It is a powerful crowd control and instant death weapon that seals and kills one enemy in one breath, but it has a fatal flaw.
It sucks up the caster’s magical power like crazy.
If you succeed, it’s okay, but if you fail, it’s over.
And I know very well how to escape from this seal.
Shashashasha.
The world is falling apart.
It is reassembled.
The scene inside the dark private plane disappears.
A desolate rocky desert created in its stead.
It was filled with only black basalt rocks with holes all over them.
A faint smell of sulfur rises and stings the nose.
The sky is extremely gloomy with clouds of volcanic ash.
And statues of gods standing everywhere.
A dark jaguar without an eyeball stands upright and stares at me.
[Warrior. Enemy of the Church. Renowned Hero.]
The voice of the high priest.
[Fight forever. Your opponent is the former leader of our sect.]
Sssssss.
Sulfurous smoke rises from the floor.
Sulfur smoke gathered in one place and formed the shape of a person.
Amazingly realistic appearance.
The warrior general I had just taken down by surprise came back to life as a phantom and a ghost, drawing his sword.
“You must have spent some money on this.”
It was similar in games.
After killing him, they forcefully move one of the characters and make him do a one-on-one fight.
Would it be better if it was one-on-one?
The scary thing about this space is that it doesn’t only do one-on-ones.
Kill once, kill two.
If you win the second time, you get four.
If you win three times, eight people will appear.
Oh, well, Sword Master is a copy?
In the game, you had to kill the High Priest with the three remaining members, the Outer Force.
The internal organs hold out. If you can’t hold out and die, the second character will be dragged in.
‘Let’s show off as much as possible.’
There is no end.
One of the veterans said that he sent in a level 9 celestial horse that had finished training and fought with it, and that the number of enemies increased up to 1,024.
After that, due to the limitations of mobile games, 1,024 people continued to appear.
I can’t go up to 1,024.
It’s best to stall for time and then leave.
“Kwaaah!”
The commander comes running, shouting.
Not bad momentum.
I drew my dual pistols instead of my sword.
Do a somersault and fall backwards.
Dual pistols fired simultaneously.
Tata tata tang!
[Invincible Gun][Air Raid][Divine Power]
[Jijihwa][Lightning][Earth]
The knights of the Holy Crown are precious.
The High Priest will not be able to use his final trait.
So I only equipped it with divine power.

Added the addition of the High Heaven, Lightning, and Earth.
Every time I pull the trigger, every time the bullet hits the ghost of the former commander, a flower blooms.
A flower created with divine power.
The golden spire, the blazing lightning, and the cubic Earth form petals.
As you might expect, all three traits grant additional damage to undead.
Every time a bullet was fired, the commander shook violently.
“Ugh! Keuuuk!”
The reaction is intense.
If I were alive, it wouldn’t have been this bad.
Now the spot where the bullet hit was leaving a dent.
As if someone had scooped it up with a spoon.
If we run away and just shoot bullets, we’ll win quickly.
As if sensing this, the general raised his sword and shouted loudly.
“Kuaaaah!”
already?
It’s phase 2.
The commander’s eyes glow bloodshot.
Within seconds, a magic circle from all over my body glows like a tattoo, then evaporates into thin air and melts into space.
There is only one thing visible.
A sword that spurts blood, only the sword steel that shines from the sword.
“joy.”
It’s a spiritual embodiment.
The general attacks by abusing the spirit transformation and sword attack in phase 2.
There is no way to attack the spirit embodiment?
Then it ends there.
Well then, that is.
Can’t the divine power, the supreme power, the lightning, and the earth attack the spiritual being?
Also, what are the properties of the bullets from the Dasan Tomb?
I thought it would be extremely competitive, but when we actually fought, it was even worse.
The former president was my food.
A good source of experience points in games.
In this world, it was just a source of good achievements.
Tata tata tata tata!
I ended the battle by using the reverse transformation and activating the invincibility gun.
The commander melted like ice cream under the hail of hundreds of bullets.
The final attack swept through the tip of my spirit body, but it was useless.
Since it was a sword without any special properties, I couldn’t do anything with it.
“Krrrrr… … This isn’t the end… … .”
“Oh, I know.”
Next time there will be two.
A short break between battles.
I opened my golf bag and checked the inkstone that the ghost of King Jeongjo had given me.
The apricot flower pattern is shining softly.
Achievement achieved.
You can obtain the Jeongjo Eocheong at any time by going to Gyujanggak.
‘I’m going to graduate from Dasan High School after a long time.’
Goodbye, Dasan Tomb.
Set weapons are good, but the transformation gun is the best.
“Grrrrr, Grrrrr.”
“Khuh. I’m back.”
After five minutes, a vision appears like a knife.
I asked, pulling out a rifle and a shotgun instead of dual pistols.
“Aren’t you resentful? Your high priest used you as a sacrifice as he pleased?”
I didn’t expect an answer.
It’s obvious what a fanatic would say.
As expected.
The two welcomes giggled and said.
“Unbelievers, and such, cannot understand the faithful.”
“I offer my spirit and my flesh to the dark jaguar!”
“Thank you, High Priest.”
“I will enjoy happiness.”
“Hahahaha.”
“Die!”
A sword that stabs with precision.
Did he learn my reaction earlier?
The two were approaching in a direction where they would get stabbed by the sword if they used the wrong escape.
Well, I guess it’s okay.
He used his superpowers and flash together to run away.
Originally, it wasn’t used much because of the stiffness immediately after casting, but if it’s moving away like now, or if it’s used with superpowers, it’s a different story.
Bang! Tata tata tang!
Fire shotguns and rifles in rapid succession.
As expected, the quadruple attributes are eating away at the two illusions.
“Rain, scary.”
“Fight like a warrior.”
“The name, the high, the hero, why is it so, so incompetent.”
“Don’t you know anything but ambush and escape?”
I just farted once.
“whatever.”
Cowardly and incompetent?
Oh, thank you for the compliment.
There’s a lot of nonsense about a topic that is copied by the power of God.
Is it fair to fight quietly and die?
If you use the power of God, I will use the trait change.
I flew around freely.
The vast desert was used as a courtyard.
Thorough outfighting.
In the distance, only rifles and shotguns bang bang bang.
When reloading, use Gunner, Rapid Reload, etc. When escaping, use not only Air Strike, but also Acceleration and Blink without sparing any effort.
It wasn’t just random shooting.
Periodically, he would equip his earpiece and shoot bullets at visible weak points.
Welcome is ultimately a condensation of magical power.
There was a point of magical power concentration similar to a nuclear one.
If you attack it, it will become noticeably weaker, but you just endure it without attacking?
Phew!
“Ugh!”
“Khuh-huh.”
At some point the welcoming reaction changed.
The body shakes more violently and the magic smoke disperses.
Moreover, my hand that shoots the gun is particularly light.
I had a gut feeling when I saw that.
‘It’s a surprise attack trait.’
A trait that causes a critical hit when attacking a weak point.
The compatibility with the ear is really good.
Because identifying weaknesses is embedded in your ears.
Thanks to that, I was able to quickly defeat the two enemies.
Without even using a sword, only a gun.
“Pull out your sword.”
“Sword, Master, why, does, he, use, a gun?”
“Fight back, fight back.”
“How long are you going to keep running away?”
Yeah, I won’t fight.
Who said that?
The game is about making your opponents angry.
And the longer this small sub-dimension is maintained, the more the High Priest’s magical power is consumed.
It’s best to delay as much as possible.
But, within the limits of safety.
‘It’s hard now.’
After the fourth win.
The moment when the sixteen illusions were created.
I felt myself starting to give out.
The problem isn’t caused by using guns.
Using a sword didn’t do anything to help me with my problems.
‘There are too many.’
Even if you use a wide space like a courtyard, there are limits.
There are as many as sixteen people.
Four of them chase me, and the remaining twelve form four groups of three to pressure me.
You can still escape somehow, but it’ll be hard for thirty-two people.
In the end, I guess I’ll have to fight with a sword.
The commander also seemed to have sensed it.
He laughed heartily as he burned in the flames, was roasted by lightning, and was crushed by the earth.
“Hahahaha.”
“Soon, soon.”
“You die.”
“Obtain eternal life.”
“The dark jaguar will prey on you.”
What a pity.
That’s it.
Still, it took a lot of time.
It felt like we fought for almost two hours?
By my calculations, even the high priest is almost at his limit.
I’m barely holding on by drinking magic potions and magic concentration circles outside.
I would like to win one more fight, but I decided not to push myself too hard.
If I make a single mistake, I’m finished.
I have one life and this is not a game, this is reality.
There’s no need to push yourself too hard in a place where even the Great Escape won’t work.
Thud thud.
I walked towards the statues lying nearby.
Those whose red eyes glow as they look at me.
There’s only one way to escape from here.
It is to surrender to the Dark Jaguar and offer up your spirit and body.
‘That’s not all.’
He lifted the sword and made a long stroke with his palm.
Feed the dripping blood to the statue.
The god opened his mouth and greedily drank the blood.
This begins the ritual of the ear.
The statue whispers to me with shining eyes.
[Dedicate yourself.]
It’s not just the blood-soaked statues.
The other gods were also whispering dark words.
[Offer blood.]
[Offer your life.]
[Give your soul.]
[Instead, I grant you power and authority.]
[You will be the king of the world.]
[You will also enjoy bliss in heaven.]
There’s a lot of talk about pseudo-topics that aren’t listed in the 100 Westphalian seats.
Whether or not, he continued to feed blood.
Originally, you had to coordinate detailed conditions through a Q&A with the person in charge.
Are you willing to sacrifice a body part here?
Whether to offer up your soul after death.
Or will you join the church and dedicate yourself to the Dark Jaguar?
But there was another option.
A silent option, indicated only by [… … .].
Then, it will continue to suck blood and not respond at all.
I said that even a level 9 Heavenly Demon character would have to use more than twice his HP.
Of course, if you do that while you’re alive, you’ll die ten times over.
[immortality][resurrection][regeneration]
[Healing][Vitality][Vitality]
Well, I endured it easily by switching traits.
Regenerating as much as you bleed.
The only annoying thing was that the wound kept healing and kept getting hurt.
The god drank my blood and urged me on.
[Answer.]
[How can you not say anything?]
[Speak.]
[Swear that you will be devoted to me.]
[If you don’t speak up, I will cause you eternal suffering.]
The voice becomes impatient.
It’s not like an artificial intelligence or a magical spirit.
A god who had lost his name, a god who had lost part of his divine power, was speaking on behalf of the high priest using his magical powers.
So, don’t rush it.
How much magical power does it take to communicate with God?
It may be different if you do it in the dedicated prayer room of the main shrine.
Moreover, once the ritual of the ghost has begun, it is impossible to summon the ghost of the warrior general.
The defeat of the High Priest was destined when [Living Sacrifice] was used on me.
Crackle. Crackle.
The world is distorted.
It makes noise like when an old TV can’t receive signals.
[Come on, come on, speak up!]
Oh my.
I ignored it and poured blood.
The sky splits and the earth begins to twist.
Then, at some point, the world just shuts down.
“Coolook! Keuheuk!”
A gasping sound.
The vision hasn’t returned yet.
The eyes are locked in pitch black darkness, crossing the dimensional wall.
But I was already moving.
[Ear][Sixth sense]
Understand the situation with two characteristics.
[Kalaratri][Island Battle][Dance]
It becomes lightning and sweeps across the front.
[surprise attack]
Equip the newly acquired trait as well.
“Cough!”
“Ugh.”
“100 million!”
Most of them were priests.
After transferring all of his magical power to the high priest through magic power transfer.
A priest without warriors and reinforcements and without his magical powers exhausted was very helpless.
The silent sword sprayed blood first, and the lightning that followed burned everything.
“Huh, heh heh heh.”
The high priest laughs.
He lets out a hollow laugh as if he’s being scorned.
My eyesight returned around that time.
The inside of the private plane, now in shambles, finally came into view.
Everyone is dead.
The three major priests, priesthood, pilots, flight attendants, everyone.
The only survivor was the high priest.
If the magic spirit hadn’t been on autopilot a while ago, the plane would have crashed.
One last thing.
My silent sword.
An indestructible sword boasting a black blade.
He was pressing hard on the high priest’s Adam’s apple.
“Surrender.”
Of course, surrender is not an option for fanatics.
Instead, something else is possible.
“Or let’s make a deal.”
“transaction?”
“okay.”
I nodded heavily.
“I know everything. The secret alliance with the old father’s sect. If you tell me about it, I will spare your life.”
“Ha! You’ll spare my life? Is this an honor? After all, you killed the priests, the priesthood, and the faithful believers!”
“If you don’t like it, then don’t say anything.”
I pushed the sword.
Gulp, blood forms and flows out.
It was at that moment that the high priest’s gaze changed.
He clenched his teeth loudly once and nodded his head slightly, just slightly.
“Very well. You must live to seek revenge. If you swear not to kill me, I will tell you everything I know. If you want, I will even give you proof.”
Oh, and even evidence?
You are being cooperative.
That’s how desperate it is.
I can clearly see what he is thinking and what he is up to.
But what should I do?
[Incarnation], used by the High Priest as a secret weapon.
The antithesis is [Sunggwan Knight].
I have never exposed my crown knight, even though I have worn a halo.
The high priest looks at me.
Eyes that seem disarmed and helpless.
But seeing the murderous intent hidden deep within, I secretly smiled.
