Kung.
The Heavenly Demon’s foot hit the ground.
His body shot forward, aiming for Sohyi.
“That bastard-!”
Sohyi, fearless, moved both hands towards the Heavenly Demon, who was lunging at her.
¡Kiiiing---!
White lines, emitting the moan of an animal, extended from her two hands.
Up, down, left, right.
The white lines launched towards the Heavenly Demon, aiming at every possible direction.
“It can’t be…”.
Sohyi’s eyes, who was muttering softly, trembled violently.
“I, I, definitely-”
She hadn’t seen it before!
Kim Haeil.
She hadn’t seen that Wanderer, with that face.
That meant he was a guy who wasn’t worth her worrying about.
But he had not only awakened his Singularity (Unique Power), but had also created his own form in that same place?
‘Sohyi, you’re truly a genius. It’s incredible that a Wanderer like you exists in the present.’
How she had been able to enter the Five-Colored Family. It was the result of her Singularity, her genius, that had appeared after the Unique Powers were sealed.
‘In the past, even if you weren’t a Loner, you could have a Singularity, and anyone could challenge God’s position, beyond the boundaries. But because of the Celestials, that path was blocked.’
The praise she received.
‘Sohyi, you’re truly amazing.’
‘How is it possible for a Wanderer of the current generation to awaken the Singularity?’
Her life as a human. Sohyi hadn’t received much attention in her life as a human. But she had become a Wanderer because she was a Loner. And thanks to that, she was able to be recognized.
“My position-”
My domain.
“How dare you surpass me?!”
She couldn’t contain the anger that was burning in her heart.
‘Before it’s complete!’
And her logical thinking was also moving faster.
‘Kim Haeil, I have to kill you before you complete your Singularity!’
That was the decision she had made as a member of the Five-Colored Family.
“He wasn’t an AI!”
That guy is not an AI.
Rather-
“He was a guy who was looking for us from the Divine World!”
The Divine World was currently divided in two by the God of Chaos.
It wasn’t just a conceptual phrase.
It was actually divided in two, and it was impossible to access the other’s territory.
Kim Haeil.
That guy is a Wanderer.
Also, he’s a guy who has obtained a lot of information about what we, the Five-Colored Family and our alliances, are doing.
‘I have to kill him.’
If that guy discovers Sohyi and reports it to the Divine World-
‘Our entire plan could be ruined!’
Without realizing it, Sohyi felt a sense of urgency in her heart.
‘Sohyi, there’s a reason why we’ve given you small tasks first.’
The words someone from the Five-Colored Family had said, suddenly occurred to her. But Sohyi didn’t have time to think about that.
Simply-
‘I will kill him.’
He’s invading my domain. He could steal my position. I will definitely kill him.
¡Kiiiing---!
The white lines, which had been extending from everywhere towards the Heavenly Demon, suddenly changed direction.
¡Crack!
¡Crack, crack, crack!
Eight.
A total of eight lines began to embed themselves in the ground of the battle stage, surrounding the Heavenly Demon.
It was a speed incomparably faster than the white lines that had been enveloping the arena.
¡Bang!
The moment the eighth line was embedded.
¡Kiiing---!
With a scream more horrible than before, countless fine lines burst out of the white lines quickly.
-Cale.
Super Rock told Cale, who was watching, seriously.
-That’s not good.
The moment he said it.
“Securing the domain.”
Sohyi’s eyes turned white.
“Deploying the domain.”
With those words.
¡Kiiing---!
Suddenly, white threads shot out from the ground, enveloping the Heavenly Demon.
The moment the Heavenly Demon was about to be trapped in a white prison, like a cocoon.
He raised his head and looked at the sky.
“It’s done.”
The white lines, the white prison, were about to cover the Heavenly Demon’s sky.
But...
Rumble-
The sky roared.
“!”
The corners of Sohyi’s lips, whose eyes had turned white, distorted.
She felt a chill down her spine.
‘There are levels even in the Singularity.’
The words the person who had brought her to the Five-Colored Family had said.
‘Whether it’s nature or individual characteristics. No matter what, there are levels.’
‘We’ve divided that into five colors.’
The highest level is the five colors.
‘You are blue.’
Blue, which is above black, the lowest.
‘However, you have a unique attribute, so you are valuable.’
Damn it!
Sohyi looked at the sky, which was covered by blood-red clouds, and thought.
“…It’s higher than mine.”
That newly created Singularity is at least purple.
The sky, which had turned completely blood-red, like the real sky.
The Heavenly Demon, looking at that sky, rather, looking at the blood-red clouds that were twisting and moving, opened his mouth.
“Since you are under my sky-”
The Heavenly Demon knows that he is not a real God. However, he believes that he is the God of the Demon Cult.
That subtle gap.
That made him create clouds, not the sky. Though the sun and the sky existed beyond the clouds. In the end, those under him see the sky he has created. Something that will be incredibly fascinating for those who follow him. So that they feel that he is the existence they can trust most.
Also, if the Heavenly Demon doesn’t doubt his own existence.
Under this blood-red sky-
“This is my domain.”
A strangely shaped animal, an animal that doesn’t yet have a clear form, opened its mouth in the clouds.
Rumble-
The sound of thunder echoed.
Swoosh-
The moment the last drops of sunlight were covered by the blood-red clouds.
“Ah.”
People, even while running away, couldn’t help but look at the sky.
“The world-”
It darkened. And it turned red.
It’s not night. Nor is it dusk. The sunlight shining from the sky downwards, turned blood-red when it passed through the blood-red clouds. The blood-red light fell on people’s backs of hands, on their faces.
“There, there-”
And the blood-red light also touched the white lines.
Swoosh-
The white lines, which had been repelling the Heavenly Demon’s aura. Those white lines began to gradually turn blood-red. The eight thick white lines, which had been enveloping the arena, lost their original color.
“Under the Heaven of the Demons, everything is of the Demons.”
The Heavenly Demon smiled widely. As if he was completely satisfied.
“That madman.”
Cale said that as he looked at him. The voices of others came from behind. Those who were so focused on escaping, shouted.
“My inner energy works! Finally!”
The white lines, which were previously immune to inner energy, began to show cracks.
“It only works in the places that have turned blood-red! Attack there!”
It didn’t work in all places. Only in the places that had turned blood-red. The places where the blood-red light touched.
-The ones from the Central Plains, the Demons, use inner energy.
Super Rock said in disbelief.
-It’s incredible. The Heavenly Demon, that guy is truly the Heavenly Demon. That guy has the power to become stronger as the Demon Cult grows.
Until now, all the ancient powers that Cale had, were powers that created immense power. But the Heavenly Demon had created a power that would make the Demon Cult itself, those who followed him, become more powerful.
That-
-Is the path the Heavenly Demon is taking.
As the Super Rock had said.
At that moment...
“Ugh, be careful!”
A scream began to come from the crowd.
“Expanding the domain.”
Sohyi didn’t stand still.
The white lines that had been enveloping the arena.
Those lines quickly changed direction.
Before they turned blood-red.
¡Kiiing---!
“Ugh, my, my leg!”
They headed towards the people, no matter where they were. Those lines quickly enveloped people’s bodies.
“Ugh!”
They began to absorb their energy. Those white lines became brighter and stronger. Like a spider that eats its prey, caught in the spiderweb.
And-
Swoosh-
Sohyi’s white pupils, which had been shining, emitted a brighter light, and a white aura began to envelop her body.
“Don’t you dare underestimate me.”
A smile appeared at the corner of Sohyi’s lips.
‘Still-’
I haven’t lost to Kim Haeil yet. She moistened her lips with her tongue.
“There’s a lot of prey.”
Because there was a lot of life, a lot of prey around her. The smile at the corner of her lips intensified, and her hand moved again.
¡Bang!
This time, she took a step towards the Heavenly Demon. The white line, which had been enveloping the Heavenly Demon’s arm, was still connected to her.
Though that line was gradually turning blood-red.
“Restoring the domain.”
¡Kiiing---!
White covered her again.
“Definitely-”
And the Heavenly Demon opened his mouth.
“It’s not easy to face you alone.”
Creating and controlling this new power wasn’t easy. When a small amount of blood flowed from the corner of the Heavenly Demon’s lips.
“However-”
But...
“Don’t you dare underestimate us, right?”
“What?”
The moment Sohyi was about to ask.
¡Kiiing---!
The white line connecting the Heavenly Demon and her. After turning blood-red, it was now turning white again, and there was little blood-red left.
A flow of light fell from the sky downwards.
¡Kwaaang!
Sohyi quickly stepped back.
“…!”
She saw the white line waving in front of her. The line that had been connected to the Heavenly Demon. The line that had been trying to absorb her vital energy. It had been cut.
“Who are you?”
Her gaze turned towards the space between the Heavenly Demon and her.
In the center.
The existence that had cut the remaining blood-red point on the white line.
“Now there are people who can take charge of the arena.”
Choi Han said that, as if he was apologizing, to the Heavenly Demon, and then looked at Cale.
Nodding his head. Choi Han, looking away from Cale, who had nodded his head, stood in front of the Heavenly Demon.
“I owe you my life.”
He thanked the Heavenly Demon.
Because it was true.
¡Swoosh!
Alberu cut one of the white lines, which had turned blood-red, and shouted to those around him.
“Take those who are enveloped in the line towards the light! And eliminate the lines!”
People now had something to do. Actually, the people of the Kingdom of Lan were already moving, without Alberu saying it.
“¡Kuu!”
“Just hold on a little! Ready, now I’ll cut the line!”
Blood-red light.
Rumble-
The moan of the sky didn’t stop, and the sunlight, which had passed through the Heavenly Demon’s clouds, kept changing to blood-red and shone on the earth.
Those lines couldn’t resist that relentless light.
Drizzle.
But the blood flowing from the corner of the Heavenly Demon’s lips was gradually increasing.
“I can’t believe he’s doing the same thing as Kim Haeil.”
The Heavenly Demon laughed, in disbelief, when he could see a black-masked man, who had appeared between Choi Han and him.
“What’s something like what I would do?”
It was Cale. Though he had blonde hair, he was standing in front of the Heavenly Demon, with his face covered by a mask.
“Put in a little more effort. You have to fully use the power you’ve awakened.”
Cale said.
“I’ll take care of that Wanderer.”
¡Ching!
Choi Han drew his sword and lunged towards Sohyi. Choi Han, who originally had the power to cut the white line. Now that he had no one to protect, he could unleash himself.
"Ugh."
Cale, who heard the Heavenly Demon’s groan, unable to hide his disappointment, spoke indifferently.
"Leave the opportunity to that guy."
"Right."
The Heavenly Demon accepted his disappointment immediately.
Choi Han.
That guy was now facing his mortal enemy.
“…”
The Heavenly Demon looked at Choi Han, who was running, and Cale, who was in front of him.
The corner of the Heavenly Demon’s lips curled upwards, as he saw the two people who were protecting him.
Perhaps this moment was the most meaningful in this world.
Perhaps he is learning the fun he had never been able to feel in his life.
“…….”
The Heavenly Demon closed his eyes. And he focused on the power emanating from within him.
The Heaven of the Demons.
Inside him, the Heavenly Demon had contained the faith of a human who had become a God, along with the human emotion he had acquired a while ago. Because he had come to think that perhaps it was important to contain that emotion. Since, after all, he had chosen to live a human life.
¡Kwaaang!
He closed his eyes calmly, amidst the roar.
Rumble-
But the moan of the sky grew louder. So much so that everyone, the NPCs and users outside the arena, focused.
“¡Kuu! Where did this guy come from!”
And Sohyi looked at the black dragon, who was opening its mouth towards her, with trembling eyes.
¡Kwaaang!
A black dragon, made of a savage black aura. Choi Han, who was in the center of that dragon, with his sword, lunged towards her, without hesitation.
The Wanderers.
From the beginning, Choi Han’s job was to take care of them.
Under the blood-red sky, Choi Han’s savage black dragon headed towards the enemy.
As he changed white to black.
