256. Hwangwang Banjo (4)
Instinct.
An ability that a creature has from birth, without undergoing any processing.
It’s not that grandiose.
Just like everyone knows how to breathe even without being taught… … .
Even if he did not understand the detailed principle of why he could breathe, there was no problem in doing it.
and… … .
『Detailed effect (8) – It has the power to control the death of all things.』
This one wasn’t too different.
‘… … I don’t know what it means to control the death of all things, but at least I know how to use it.’
Even though no one told me, I was able to instinctively notice.
How can I use the power to control the death of all things that the system message told me about?
A feeling as if it were innate.
Even if you don’t understand the logic, you can immediately know how to use your power.
It’s the same with another detailed effect of necromancy.
『Detailed effect (9) – Challenger Han Seong-yoon takes the position of <God of Death>.』
The god of battle, the god of darkness, the god of proof, etc… … .
I also have the Divinity that anyone with great power has.
I don’t know why I got this name, and what this name means.
But one thing was known.
Right-.
“The god of death expresses hostility towards Karnar Sagsis.”
The fact that now I can reveal my status through system messages.
This cannot be dismissed as a small change.
Being able to reveal one’s dignity through the tower’s system message means that system intervention is now possible.
It’s still just a matter of briefly showing emotion in system messages… … .
Depending on what you do later, the depth at which you can intervene in the system will also vary.
So this point deserves a lot of attention.
but… … .
[ What the hell, why? why… … . challenger. A frog in a well like you has reached a higher level than dedicating the world to God, right? ]
No more time to think deeply.
Karnar was spitting out jealousy as if whispering to me with bloodshot eyes.
It is jealousy close to hatred.
And that emotion greatly influenced the divinity and faith that dwelled in his heart.
Should I say that it seems that my strong faith has been twisted?
It didn’t seem to be in very good condition.
‘Are you jealous of the state I’ve reached now… … .’
It was worth it.
At the same time as my level of necromancy has grown, I have reached the position of a true deity, at least temporarily.
Even that, in the form of gaining the position of <God of Death>.
Perhaps Karnar was very angry that I, a challenger to the tower, had gained a new reputation.
Having a new name means reaching a level higher than Karnar.
His sudden growth would not have been to his liking.
At that, I quietly clicked my tongue.
‘It’s quite ugly.’
It was then.
—… … You don’t have time to think so leisurely, do you?
The blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword in my hand rang, and at the same time I heard Damcheonwu’s voice in my ears.
―The native deities are writhing in pain. It won’t take that long to pull it off. The battle will resume soon.
He tried to erase his bewildered expression as he spoke.
―I wonder how you came back to life… … . Before that, you will have to resolve this situation. Otherwise, you will die again.
Maybe I just knew I was going to die?
There was a tremor in Dam Chun-wu’s voice that he could not erase even if he tried to erase it.
It’s like seeing an incomprehensible phenomenon.
Nevertheless, I was grateful that he quickly and reasonably presented a path that was close to victory.
But I had no intention of listening to that advice.
That would be too… … .
[You don’t have to worry so much. ]
At least now I don’t feel like I’m going to lose.
[Now I don’t think I’ll lose meaninglessly like before. ]
actually… … .
The moment when the divine power dwelling in the heart is raised.
The native deities, howling in pain, stopped struggling and turned their eyes to me.
「The native deity, the mountain giant who protected the spirits, has a visceral fear of you.」
“The native deity, ‘the snake that tried to devour the mountain,’ feels a visceral fear of you.”
―What is this… … ? On the subject of the unwilling dead, they say they feel fear of a specific target… … ?
It was accompanied by a trembling of unknown reason.
‘It doesn’t seem like there’s anything of the opposite s*x left, but he still feels fear.’

——————
The indigenous deities here do not have the ability to think for themselves.
However, unlike before, feeling fear meant that the situation had changed.
And the other side seemed to know that too.
“The 2nd-class apostle ‘Karnar Sagsis’ feels a strong urge and rages.”
[To the subject of a mere dog who is not prepared to sacrifice the world like me… … ! You will reach the highest level with the power given by the tower? under! ]
Karnar shook his head precariously as if denying something.
[Do you think you can admit that! I am… … , I am… … ! I can’t tolerate you standing here without any resolution! ]
His face was distorted with jealousy, hatred, and a terrible sense of inferiority.
[Now I can’t even survive, I’ll finish it completely… … !! ]
and… … .
“The native deity, ‘The Giant of the Mountain who protected the spirits’, follows the instructions imbued with compulsion.”
「The native deity, “The Serpent that Tried to Devour the Mountain,” follows compulsive instructions.」
Oh oh oh oh oh!
Shii-i-i-!
At the end of his words, the native gods burst into me with a loud roar.
But I wasn’t nervous even while watching it.
Should I say that it seems as if sandcastles are approaching that would collapse if you hit them?
The clay-like divinity that settled in my heart was whispering to me.
‘I know what to do.’
They say that they are no longer worth fighting for.
At that, I smiled softly on my lips and drew out the divine power in my heart as if exploding.
very strong too.
and… … .
「Use Divine <Death>.」
「You can control the death of everything that has been eroded by the divine <Death>.」
Soon, the moment when the divinity, which looked like dark red mud, flashed like light centered on the heart.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
「The native deity, the mountain giant who protected the spirits, is forced to die.」
“The native deity ‘the snake that tried to devour the mountain’ faces a forced death.”
The bodies of the native deities who touched the divinity collapsed and collapsed.
***
divine name.
It is not dismissed as a mere name for the Godhead.
Deity is a symbol of true divinity, and at the same time, it means that as a god, he has the realm of governing something.
The meaning of subjectivity regarding a particular concept was simple.
as soon as… … .
It has transcendental dominion over the concept of being governed as a godhead.
Therefore, deities with divine names have power that even the tower cannot interfere with.
That’s why Karnar longed for that supreme state.
If you gain the conceptual realm as a godhead, you will have the possibility to take revenge on the tower.
‘… … That’s why I dedicated this world directly to the ancient deity.’
Karnar decided to get it in exchange for becoming an apostle of the Ancient Godhead.
This world will come to an end anyway, so let’s sacrifice the world and gain the power to take revenge on the tower.
So he gave everything to the god of despair, fall and madness.
However, despite this, he was not able to attain a level that would allow him to gain a new name.
I thought it was fine though.
If you can give more to the Ancient Godhead, you’ll get what you want in the end.
However, that odd self-consolation was broken when Han Seong-yoon took the place of the god of death.
‘… … why. Why the hell did something like that get its place? To a subject who is not even prepared to dedicate the world.’
Couldn’t admit it.
Even he himself, who had driven the world to destruction by shedding bloody tears, was not able to gain new life.
however… … .
A dog who was lucky enough to be chosen by the tower, and gained the realm of concept as a god?
Even if the world tolerated it, he himself could not tolerate it.
Karnar was in denial with an inferiority complex.
‘… … Do you think that the position obtained through expedient methods can be compared to the position obtained truly?’
Anyway, the position Han Seong-yoon got would be nothing more than what the tower gave him.
If so, it is possible to use the native deities to defeat them again.
Because of his unbearable inferiority complex, he firmly believed in the twisted idea.
Until Han Seong-yoon suddenly flashed his dark red divine power like light.
[This, what the hell… … . ]
okay.
At least I thought so before.
But now Karnar could not keep that twisted belief.
That would be too… … .
[The necromancer has been canceled… … ? ]
This is because the indigenous deities who came into contact with Han Seong-yoon’s divinity fell immediately.
It’s also very miserable.
I didn’t even feel the bond with the native gods that I had formed with the necromancy before.
This means that you can no longer revive native deities with necromancer.
At that, Karnar hesitated in contemplation.
‘Even, I have to run away… … .’
He was immediately startled and tried to escape by disabling the sacred realm… … .
Tsutsutsu-!
All of a sudden, the sacred territory of the cemetery was eroded by dark red mud, and that became impossible.
「The divine realm <obsession in despair> is out of control.」
「The cancellation and extinction of the divine realm <Obsession in Despair> will be temporarily impossible.」
[ … … ah? ]
Only then did I realize
Those who gain the realm of the concept of divine <death> can control the death of all things.
It’s not just about killing a living creature or destroying something in its place.
either to live or to die.
All of that can be said to be Han Seong-yoon’s will.
Therefore, since it was eroded by the divine <death>, there was no way that the divine realm could be unlocked without permission.
‘… … Are you preventing the release of the divine realm, that is, the death of the divine realm?’
Karnar was dumbfounded and laughed.
[ Ha ha ha ha ha… … . ]
Recognizing the release of the divine realm as death and blocking it?
It was an incomprehensible phenomenon.
However, Karnar, ironically, did not understand, but was convinced.
it is realized
[Is this the power of the Godhead who governs concepts… … . ]
It is the power of the godhead that deals with concepts that achieves the unattainable.
A premonition of defeat that will never be reversed.
Karnar frantically searched for the god he served with his eyes tightly closed.
A god of despair, fall and madness.
[ … … God of despair, fall and madness! I will give my all! So give me the strength to kill the tower dogs! ]
and… … .
“The god of despair, fall, and madness accepts the apostle’s request.”
“The god of despair, fall, and madness accepts the apostle’s body as a price.”
“The god of despair, fall, and madness accepts the apostle’s soul as a price… … .」
“The god of despair, fall, and madness accepts the apostle’s faith as a price… … .」
The moment when everything in Karnar was handed over to the god he served.
“The god of despair, fall, and madness designates ‘Karnar Sagsis’ as a first-class apostle.”
He also had a power worthy of him.
「The 1st class apostle ‘Karnar Sagsis’ has received the divine <Hell> from the god.」
It’s also quite usable.
***
System messages filled my field of vision.
「Absorbed the spirit of the local deity, the giant of the mountain who protected the spirit.」
「The spirit piece ‘■■■[1/3]’ has been absorbed.」
“Challenger Han Seong-yoon is 17.6% closer to ascension by winning against a native deity.”
「Acquire the exclusive effect ‘Spirit Protection (A+)’ as a special reward for <Divinity Ascension>.」
“From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon is favored by all spirits.”
[ … … . ]
A mountain giant who protected the spirits.
The power of the existence that boasted the most bloated body among the native deities permeates the body.
And in the blink of an eye, the level of divinity rises like crazy and deep power dwells.
「Absorbed the spirit of the native deity, “The Serpent that Tried to Devour the Mountain.”」
「The spirit piece ‘■■■[2/3]’ has been absorbed.」
“Challenger Han Seong-yoon is 15.9% closer to ascension by winning against a native deity.”
「Acquire the exclusive effect “Distortion (S-)” as a special reward for <Divinity Ascension>.”
「From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon can distort space by consuming holy power.」
[ … … . ]
A snake that tried to devour a mountain.
Among the native deities, the power of the being with the most difficult spatial distortion power is absorbed.
And at the same time Ascension rose again, I could notice that something was gradually changing.
「Absorbed the spirit of the native deity, the dragon that ruled over vegetation.」
「The spirit piece ‘■■■[3/3]’ has been absorbed.」
“Challenger Han Seong-yoon is 14.7% closer to ascension by winning against a native deity.”
「Acquire the exclusive effect ‘Dragon Heart (A+)’ as a special reward for <Divinity Ascension>.」
“From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon’s magic power will increase by 1.8 times.”
[ … … . ]
A dragon that ruled over vegetation.
The power of the being who had the most powerful divine power among the indigenous deities is now taking its place.
And the accumulated ascension is now close to 100%, and a change has occurred.
Brilliant golden light rose from within as if boiling… … .
As it was, it wrapped around the body and settled down as if it were mixed with the dark red divinity.
-you… … .
At that, Damcheonwu, who dwelled in the Blood Heaven Demon Sword, sighed and blurted out his horse’s tail.
It was worth it.
Right now, I’m draining his suffocating high power.
Perhaps, if it were not for such a strong being, I would have lost my mind just by being by your side.
[ Ascension. I was wondering what would happen if I raised the number close to 100%… … . It goes like this. ]
It’s not different… … .
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon.」
「You are in the process of acquiring the minimum qualifications to obtain additional Shinmyeong.」
「When Ascension reaches 100%, challenger Han Seong-yoon will be able to obtain the official name.」
The myth <The Possibility of Transcendence> was what really made it possible to reach the position of a god.
―Stop, no way… … ! You’re on a level that goes beyond normal divinity… … !
[ no. It’s not like that. I can tell for sure. ]
―What is that… … ?
[Maybe later, but not now. ]
It was felt.
At this point, even if you don’t use the power of deification, you can be treated as a god.
But that doesn’t mean reaching a level beyond the divine.
It’s just that I’m now at the point where I can truly become a god.
[When Ascension reaches 100%, I will become a real god. ]
—… … Like the god of battle or the god of proof?
[ Maybe. It’s not accurate. I can’t predict the outcome either. ]
—… … Still growing like crazy. A challenger on the 40th floor will no longer be an opponent.
I nodded at Dam Chun-wu’s words and quickly read the system messages.
‘… … I got a lot of exclusive effects with <Divine Ascension>.’
Killing three native deities and gaining a lot of high-level exclusive effects.
I never thought I would get at least three A+ grade-exclusive effects… … .
In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that he obtained three Powers.
‘… … All of these will have to be thoroughly checked later in the waiting room.’
His eyes twinkled and I barely resisted the urge to check my abilities right away.
And then I saw another system message appearing in the corner of my field of vision.
It’s not different…
「The spirit piece ‘■■■ [3/3]’ has satisfied the required number of charges.”
「You can select and acquire a latent divinity by consuming the spirit fragment ‘■■■ [3/3]’.”
「Currently, the potential divinities that can be acquired are <Gourt>, <Breath>, and <Blessing>.
「※ At this time, the potential divinity that was not selected will not appear as an option later.」
‘As expected, there was this too.’
A phrase that announces the completion of charging the ‘Spirit Shard’, which has been seen once in the Giant Tree Labyrinth.
Perhaps if you choose one of these three divinities, you will get it.
It was a pity that I couldn’t choose one divinity individually, perhaps because it was a native deity.
But now there was no time to dwell in such regret.
‘I can go back to the waiting room and choose this later.’
In response, I immediately removed the system message from the corner of my field of vision.
「Choice pending.」
「※ You can select and acquire a latent divinity at a later time.」
and… … .
「The 1st class apostle ‘Karnar Sagsis’ looks at the challenger Han Seong-yoon.」
As it was, I frowned as I looked at Karnar standing over there.
[I thought he wasn’t dead yet. ]
I took control of the divine realm with divine <death> and tried to kill him… … .
For some reason, Karnar was still alive.
And that wasn’t all.
「The 1st class apostle ‘Karnar Sagsis’ has downloaded the sacred <Hell> from the main god.」
The god of despair, fall and madness gave him new strength.
Even the powers related to divinity.
At that, I frowned and estimated how much Karnar’s power had increased.
And then quickly gave him an estimate.
‘The level of divinity has increased, and the level of divinity has been added.’
Still, is it because of the trials administered by the Tower?
In the worst case, the god of despair, fall, and madness did not write <Advent>.
But even this could be considered pessimistic enough.
The battle that should have ended long ago has been prolonged.
actually… … .
[Kuhahahahahaha—! ]
Karnar glared at me with a big smirk, as if his confidence had risen.
[Challenger… … ! Are you ready to pay the price for daring to destroy my servants… … ! you! I will die in this place! ]
and.
[Look, challenger! ]
He shouted triumphantly and spread his arms wide, as if he had a spleen.
「The 1st class apostle ‘Karnar Sagsis’ activates divine <Hell>.」
[This is the power I gave my all to and gained from the ancient deity! ]
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-!
And at the same time, a black stone door engraved with geometric patterns appeared behind him.
[I’ll plunge you into the abyss of despair! Regret that you burned in hell all your life and became a tower dog! ]
「The divine <Hell> is activated, and the boundary leading all living things to the dark sword is opened.」
From that point on, the moment when the black stone door opened in the blink of an eye.
Then, an aura full of red swayed beyond the door and gave off suction power.
Like trying to inhale everything in this place.
It’s also very strong.
oh oh oh oh oh… … !
however… … .
[ … … . ]
When I saw it, I couldn’t help but flinch for a moment.
It was worth it.
It seemed that he could handle the borderline of the light sword created by the divine <Hell>.
Even that very simply.
‘no way… … , is that why it feels incredibly familiar?’
At that moment, I immediately recalled the new detailed effect of necromancy I had seen before.
─Detailed effect (8) – Has the power to control the death of all things.
It’s not different… … .
It means that it has the power to control the death of all things.
But I wasn’t really sure.
It was uncertain whether I could really handle that black stone door properly.
It’s just that I feel that way without knowing why.
however.
‘I think I can handle it though… … .’
As the saying goes, you have to go down anyway… … .
As soon as my body began to be led to the black stone door, I immediately reached out my hand.
Even if it fails, it’s enough to widen the distance with the power of Shunbo.
Then, while concentrating, he invoked divine power.
「Divine <Spirit> is used.」
「By consuming divine power, you can influence the real world with words.」
「However, a lot of holy power is consumed by the commandments that interfere with the laws of the world.」
and.
“Close up. 》
The moment I commanded that while activating the divine <Sword>——.
Wow… … !!
「The activation is canceled by the power of the divine <Hell> that governs the death of all things.」
Just like that, as soon as the power of the divine <Emperor> touched the black stone door, the boundary of light was closed.
「The achievement ‘God of Death’ has been achieved.」
「Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward] is automatically activated when the conditions are satisfied.」
「The reward level obtained from achievements will increase from [S-rank] to [SS-rank].”
「Acquire the divine attack-only authority, ‘List (SS-)’.」
[ … … does this work? ]
It’s very simple too.
