459. Final battle (1)
Faster than light.
Just by lightly swinging the Blood Heavenly Demon Sword and the Breaking Heavenly Sword, a level of violence that surpasses even the normal laws of physics is unleashed.
It is a force that can shake even the foundation of the concept of divinity through pure physical force alone, even if only temporarily.
───!
Even if the thing in front of you is a dark god or an ancient god like the dragon god, you wouldn’t be surprised.
Oh my way ───!
however… … .
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo!
The Demon God was different.
The results of the attacks and defenses made in the world of super-light speed, beyond the cognitive scope of living things, were the same as before.
Despite unleashing such overwhelming physical power that his vision turned completely white for an instant, he was unable to even push the opponent away, let alone inflict fatal wounds on him.
‘shit… … .’
It’s no different… … .
‘How on earth can we keep blocking this like that?’
Before I knew it, the demon god had succeeded in blocking my sword strike with one hand like before.
At this point, one wonders if the 10,000-fold increase in physical ability buff obtained by activating the Holy <Fighting Spirit> stack is a basic skill that should naturally be used between the two.
Moreover, according to what I observed from earlier, the Demon God did not seem to require a lot of power to move at the speed of light, unlike me, who had to use a hidden card.
‘Are you saying that the super-light movement that I achieved by activating the sacred <Fighting Spirit> by stacking it was a basic ability for demon gods from the beginning…? … .’
A power believed to be able to establish a match even among the three ancient gods.
As it was treated as if it were nothing in front of the true faces of the three ancient gods, my thoughts seemed to be distorted.
However, because it was almost a luxury to feel the tremors of one’s mind while the demon was in front of me, I had to forcibly suppress the distracting thoughts.
‘come.’
and.
Puhwaak-!
At that moment, the demon god walks forward, roughly kicking away the dust that had spread in all directions due to the lightning-fast strike.
────.
The world turns gray.
A world of new categories of perception that only I, who have surpassed the laws of physics by making full use of movement at the speed of light, and a demon god can only access.
In a similar way, only the devil and I are moving in a world at the speed of light, where all objects and phenomena have stopped as if the pause button of an image has been pressed.
‘What is this… … .’
However, there was a difference in their speed.
‘I’m slower?’
Unlike the one on this side that moved as if walking while deeply submerged in water, the other side was moving as if an ordinary person was lightly walking in this world at the speed of light.
‘What is this?’
If I were to be honest, it was a small difference.
At best, the Demon God is only one or two steps ahead of us.
However, in the world of faster than light speeds, the seemingly small difference in speed is bound to eventually lead to an uncontrollable gap, like a snowball rolling and expanding in size.
‘I’m in big trouble… … .’
It was serious.
If this side realized the seriousness of the situation in the world of faster than light speed, there was no way the other side was unaware of this fact as well.
The demon god pursed his lips in a fleeting world colored in gray light, and spoke words that did not resonate.
━Let’s get started.
There was a deep smile on the corner of the Demon God’s mouth.
It is not difficult to understand the meaning because of the faint wave of will that resonates while melting into the divinity itself.
And because of that, it was possible to predict to some extent what the demon god wanted and what he would do in the future.
━Shall we go light at first?
Next moment.
Swish-.
In an instant, the demon god slowly stretched forward, holding his right hand tightly in the world of super-light speed.
No matter where you look, you can’t see anything special about it. It’s an ordinary blow with a fist that doesn’t seem to have any special features.
However, the amount of power contained in the demon’s right hand was contrary to the assessment that it was a seemingly ordinary punch.
Deddude-.
Divinity, Mana, and Magi.
The demon’s right hand was shaking with various energies.
It was a power worthy of the master of all demons, who could destroy and dominate the world.
──────!!!
Next moment.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Time and space were distorted, and my vision was covered in pitch black.
***
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo.
It was as if someone had dug a huge canyon-like hole in the sand, and the terrain in the field of view was strangely distorted.
‘Damn it.’
When I saw that, I cursed in my heart and saw a system message appear in my field of vision.
“By activating Divine <Victory>, we rule out one possibility that could lead to defeat.”
It was a divine activation notification.
The power to interfere with the world itself and rule out any possibility of ‘leading to defeat.’

Before I knew it, I felt a sense of crisis right before I was about to be hit by the demon god, so I activated the sacred <Victory> and almost eliminated the attack.
‘… … If I hadn’t used Divine <Victory> just now to change the trajectory of the attack, I would have been defeated for sure.’
It was dizzying.
The inherently sacred <Victory> has the unique ability to completely rule out any possibility of defeat.
If the divine <Victory> had been activated, the power wielded by the demon would have disappeared without leaving any aftereffects due to the divine supernormal ability.
‘… … ‘What on earth is that?’
But… … .
‘… … Even though you activate the Holy <Victory>, it doesn’t eliminate the Demon God’s attack, but only lowers the power of the attack and twists the orbit?’
It wasn’t.
The sacred <Victory> written by this side did not eliminate the opponent’s attack itself, but merely lowered the power of the attack and modified its trajectory.
In the past, when I climbed the Tower of Trials and went to the Demon World, the Demon God did not do anything that went beyond common sense, but not now.
‘Is this because it was the time before the Tower of Trials appeared, and the power of the Demon God was not particularly limited by factors such as causality?’
I have a guess.
The War of the Gods occurred in a time period before the emergence of a transcendental structure called the ‘Tower of Trials’.
Since it is a story from the distant past, even the three ancient gods such as the God of Darkness, the Dragon God, and the Demon God can fight without any restrictions on their power.
‘I’m going to be amazed.’
In other words, even the overwhelming performance shown by the Demon God when he went to the Demon World from the Tower of Trials was only a small fragment of his power.
‘If what I’m thinking is correct, doesn’t that mean we can’t even figure out the extent of the demon’s power?’
I frowned and thought dozens or even hundreds of times to prepare for the next move.
‘We have to come up with a solution before the next attack… … .’
step… …
───.
That too was only for a moment.
The moment when your survival instinct goes crazy and at the same time you unconsciously enter a world at the speed of light.
In an instant, in an instant, the demon god stretched out his hand, assumed a strange posture, and activated his divine supernormal ability with no sign of fatigue.
“Divine <Annihilation> is used.”
“The origin of destruction surrounds the area designated by the sacred <Annihilation>.”
“By the divine <annihilation>, beings whose will touches the origin of destruction will be destroyed.”
Last Day.
While climbing the Tower of Trials and fighting the demons he encountered in the demon world, the divine supernormal abilities he had seen before were unleashed.
Even so, it was a cheat-like ability that allowed you to stamp out the opponent in any situation and destroy them regardless of who they were.
“I use divine <protection>.”
“I consume divine power to grant a blessing that excludes external divinity once.”
“However, once someone has received protection, protection cannot be given again for 12 hours.”
At that moment, without hesitating even for a moment, I activated the divine <Protection> and erased the ‘annihilation’ caused by the divine <Annihilation> in response.
“Divine <Leap> is activated, consuming divinity, mana, and magic energy, enabling instantaneous space movement.”
Chak-.
Suddenly, the demon god appeared right in front of us instead of on the ground far away, smiling with joy under his black half-mask.
━You let your guard down?
And that too with a punch.
Next moment.
Oh my gosh!
In the blink of an eye, as soon as the demon god’s punch touched my abdomen, the world at the speed of light dissolved for a moment, and an enormous shock hit my entire body.
「… … .」
“Skill ‘Last Resistance’ is activated.”
“The fatal wound inflicted on you is nullified.”
“All senses are temporarily amplified and corrections to all skills are added.”
「The skill has a cooldown of one week.」
Even though the skill ‘Last Stand’ was activated and the fatal wound should have been nullified, the damage did not disappear completely due to something unseen.
Kwahiah ah ah ahhhhhhhhhh!
As if the focus of the camera was rotating thousands of times in one second, my vision spun around, and at the same time my body fell to the ground, I felt a sharp pain.
“Ugh───!”
I’m crying-.
I felt like my consciousness was fading away.
Of course, the hole in the abdomen was immediately repaired using the authority skill ‘Ashen Blood’, but it is not easy to stand up from the same position.
Energy such as divinity and mana suffered permanent damage due to the supernatural abilities, myths, and powers of divinity added to the strike at the speed of light, which surpassed even the laws of physics.
‘ah… … .’
It’s not even just that.
A situation in which most of the means of survival were lost as sacred <Victory>, sacred <Protection>, and even the skill ‘Final Resistance’ were consumed.
In fact, the hidden cards that would allow me to survive against the Demon God have almost disappeared.
Cluck, cluck-.
After spitting out a lot of blood from my mouth, I was able to find the answer to the previous question.
‘There is no answer… … .’
The answer didn’t exist.
At this point, it’s hard to even guess how many special abilities the demon possesses, such as divine supernormal abilities or mythology or authority.
Originally, in times like now, the answer could be to push the other person without having time to do anything, but isn’t the difference in skill level too clear for that to happen?
‘It’s to the point where I can’t even compete with you…’ … .’
I was desperate.
‘Is this a demon god?’
I felt it.
I became painfully aware of the difference in power between the three ancient gods and myself.
Whether it is a god of darkness, a dragon god, or a demon god, it has a power that cannot be compared to someone like me.
‘Well, there’s all this…’ … .’
As I was chewing on the gloom with my eyes half-closed, a demon came out from afar, clapping his hands.
Clap, clap, clap-.
“The Demon God feels satisfied with the power of his rival, and a smile appears on his lips.”
[That’s great. ]
As if impressed by this side’s power, the other person is smiling brightly under a black half-mask and letting out a divine voice full of excitement.
[It’s beyond imagination. The same thing happened to the blow I blocked earlier before the fight… … . The pure physical power that comes from physical ability is truly outstanding. ]
No matter where or how you look at it, isn’t it the atmosphere of a powerful person looking down from above, not an opponent with superior skills?
[A long time ago, even among the immortals, mortals, and countless other powerful people I saw throughout the universe, there was none that could compare to you. ]
In reality, there was no difference.
[Only you have the strength to fight against me with pure power. ]
I felt that there was a difference in skill between the Demon God and me that could be felt through several battles.
[So, be proud. ]
Damn it.
[You fully deserve it. ]
Is that why?
[ Family rivals. ]
I felt like my heart was being shaken.
It’s not that I don’t know that there is an overwhelming difference in skill between the Demon God and me that cannot be easily bridged.
Isn’t the person in front of us one of the three ancient deities, an ancient deity whose number of years we can’t even guess?
‘… … I know.’
Even in my own opinion, it is shameless to hope that I can win the favor in front of the demon god.
Even if this side has climbed the Tower of Trials and repeated countless life-and-death battles, it is bound to be absurdly inadequate compared to the three ancient gods.
Just because the three ancient gods didn’t put in any effort, it doesn’t mean that they lacked the feats they achieved over time.
‘Compared to the three ancient gods, I am nothing.’
I don’t ignore reality.
The three ancient gods must have accumulated countless amounts of divinity, mana, mythology, and power over the passage of time.
It wouldn’t be particularly surprising if he died in front of him without being able to do anything properly.
‘but… … .’
If that were the case, nevertheless, thinking that the power this side had could not reach the demon god, negative emotions boiled deep in my heart.
‘That can’t be a reason to give up and say everything is over… … .’
Repulsion.
‘I haven’t lost yet.’
In response, I stood up with difficulty, my eyes shining, holding the Blood Heavenly Demon Sword and the Heavenly Heavenly Sword tightly in both hands.
Daldaldal-.
The Demon God who saw this spread his arms wide and let out an excited divine voice, raising his expectations.
“The Demon God feels great joy and anticipation as he looks at you.”
[ ha ha ha-! Yeah, it can’t end here… … !! yes? There’s no way someone like you could call this power! There must be some hidden power! Come on, give it your all! ]
I guess the demon god is also convinced that I have something hidden… … .
“… … .”
It was correct.
“Transcendence Myth <Spirit Attunement> is activated.”
“From now on, the divinity effect of <Indomitable Attack> will be added to challenger Han Seong-yoon’s divinity use.”
「※By designating an opponent, all types of status can become equal to that opponent for [4 minutes].」
「※However, if you are unable to withstand the burden accumulated due to the increase in rank, the power of <Spirit Indomitable> may be stopped.”
“From now on, the sacred effect of <Self-Adjustment> will be applied to challenger Han Seong-yoon.”
「※It becomes possible to freely control and manipulate the spiritual powers that one possesses.」
「※You can control formless power with spiritual power and apply the effect of spiritual power to that power.」
It’s no different─.
「… … .」
「Designation complete.」
“Transcendence Myth <Spirit Attunement> begins to equally adjust the level of the designated opponent.”
「※From now on, for [4 minutes], all types of status will become equal to the opponent in front of you, and the increase in status can be very burdensome.」
4 minutes.
Grace period.
In the future, we will find a way to defeat the demon god during the time when we can use the divine effect ‘Indomitable Spiritual Attack’ of the Transcendent Myth <Spiritual Attack Tuning>.
‘… … You have to do it.’
If you don’t, you die here.
