Beep.
A pro-partisan broadcast appeared on the electronic display board. The broadcasting station cut off the signal before the absurd live performance could continue.
Daesung looked around the deserted streets of Sejong-ro.
‘It’s not just here. ‘In the next two days, cities all over the Earth will no longer retain their original form.’
Busy streets with neon signs scattering beams of light, department stores with electronic signs, roads with sidewalk blocks, tall skyscrapers, etc.
All of this will disappear two days later when it overlaps with innumerable extradimensional space-times.
It still is. Only ‘Flomaria’ was overlapped, but strangely shaped buildings and vegetation were mixed in here and there.
‘When that time comes, we will be massacred.’
Even if there are great castles, summoned beasts, and at least hunters or troops with the power to stand against otherworldly enemies.
The moment the Earth turns into an alien world, all social, security, and defense systems that have been maintained so far will collapse, and the majority of powerless ordinary people will not survive.
‘Even ordinary people who are not awakened need the power to survive to some extent.’
Previously, I wouldn’t have cared whether someone died or not.
He said it doesn’t matter as long as he, his family, and his colleagues are safe.
But not anymore.
Now things have changed.
Because he realized that his power could be salvation for someone.
‘I didn’t know that there were only people in hell who were willing to die, but Earth is different.’
A life that is worth dying for and a life that should not die.
I planned to thoroughly distinguish between the two.
‘But you can’t let civilians into the Pantheon and give them weapons…’
Hwang Jun-young and his group are superhumans, so they survived hell, but ordinary people can’t do anything about it.
I thought about whether there was a clever way, but nothing came to mind right away.
For now, I decided to do what I could.
‘Did you say Einfried? First, what should I do with that crazy guy?’
From the moment they attacked the Blue House and declared territorial occupation, they must disappear from the earth.
Daesung, who had decided to head to the Blue House first, was about to take his steps.
[Contact with the source brings change to the Absolute.]
[Skill ‘Insight Eye’ has been revealed.]
I wasn’t even thinking about it, but a system message was created out of nowhere.
Daesung tilted his head and looked at the part about having a new skill.
Skill information soon appeared.
< Skill Information >
Insight Lv.1
[An eye that penetrates the essence of the multiverse.]
[You can check the hierarchy of the ‘origin’ of the dimension you are currently in contact with.] [
As the skill level increases, new additions are added. The function is unlocked.]
* Currently available additional functions
1. When the command ‘map’ is mentioned, the topic of the dimension being contacted is also viewed.
It was once said that the Earth’s source can instinctively sense which dimension’s source is strong and weak.
But I had no idea it would be given in such an easy to understand skill.
‘not bad.’
A skill that can be seen intuitively like this is much better than ‘intuition’, which has a somewhat vague feeling.
Daesung immediately used his Insight Eye to confirm the hierarchy of Plomaria’s origins.
-It just came to mind
in one short line.
If the level was only ‘low to medium’, even if I obtained the fragment of the origin, it would not be worth enough to make a holy relic.
No, even if the level is high and you can take the fragments –
‘How do I get to the source?’
That was the problem. The source is not something that can be found if you dig endlessly into the ground, so when will you reach it in this way?
The Hekar Vision, which had brought us to the source of the Earth, also turned into dust and disappeared.
I should have asked this, but I didn’t have time to ask because the source of the Earth was in pain and urged me to leave quickly.
‘…There’s more than one thing to worry about.’
Out of frustration, I feel like I want to open a blank book, but 24 hours have not passed since my last ‘information purchase’.
In summary, ‘Flomaria’ is an external dimension that is far from the purpose of collecting fragments of the origin.
‘But I can’t leave it alone.’
There are two more days until the entire space-time of the outer dimension comes down. There will be headaches the day after tomorrow, so you shouldn’t neglect uninvited guests.
Daesung opened the system and checked the conditions for achieving the feat.
[Conditions for achieving the feat: Dethrone Envette Rosen, the queen of the ‘Unique Empire.’]
Whether for the Kaelin or the Orcs, the conditions for achieving the feat are always uniform.
Defeating the Supreme Commander-in-Chief.
‘Then you don’t have to go to the Blue House, you can go straight to the queen.’
If you just kill the queen, the rest of the details will disappear on their own.
Last time I checked, the current situation was not recorded in the empty log.
So, it was unclear where Envet Rosen’s camp was, but there was no way to find out.
‘It might have been marked on the map.’
A function to view the ‘map’ obtained while developing an insight plan. With this, perhaps we can find out the coordinates of the only empire.
However, Daesung sighed for a moment and said something other than a command.
“It’s already hard because I have a lot to think about, so I shouldn’t bother you too.”
“It’s amazing. How did you notice? “I guess he has a pretty good sense of it.”
About twenty men began walking out from inside the narrow alley between the buildings.
Clap-. Clap-.
They all wore leather armor. It means ‘Lando people’ who came from Plomaria.
The commander leading the small group was a young man who appeared to be the same age as Einfried.
Instead, the eyes and jaw line feel a bit sharper compared to Einfrit. From the looks of it, he already had the venomous look of a weasel.
The man sneered.
“Everyone else hid like rats, so why are you the only one doing this? “Why are you lost?”
“….”
The man taunted, but Daesung did not react. Other things captured his attention.
The familiar weapon and ‘neck’ were held in the hands of a man and an armored soldier.
He was a command soldier deployed throughout Korea.
Daesung’s eyes sank coldly.
“You killed my soldiers.”
“Oh what? Were these your subordinates? “I thought they were monsters again and killed them.”
There was no reason to keep them alive when they touched his soldiers.
thud-!
The gravitational field swung like a giant invisible palm and struck them on their heads. It was the power of < gravity >.
Clink-!
However, the half-ring-shaped curtain that was descending with the force of a thunderstorm shattered like glass the moment it passed a certain point.
“Wow Mr. It’s a surprise. “Did you live in this world and know how to use magic?”
There was a haze swirling around the bodies of the men and soldiers.
Daesung could easily guess that it was something like a shield that offset physical damage coming from outside.
“Looking at his power, he seems like a pretty useful guy. “Are you not interested in joining our team?”
Grumbling-!
I was wondering if he had brought it up in hopes of getting a serious response, but the nonsense was drowned out by the loud noise of the building being destroyed in half.
With the power of < Yeomsa >, Daeseong split the commercial buildings on both sides of the alley into small pieces. Pieces cut straight into squares like tofu rained down on them.
“Are you really the guy who lives here?!”
However, even when the two buildings collapsed and fell, the haze barrier was not broken.
The man quickly cleared away the debris on the floor and left the alley, unable to hide the embarrassment on his face.
At this point, Daesung also readily acknowledged it. That shield is stronger than it looks.
If I took out the Fire Flame Greatsword, I could ignore everything, including the shield… but
now there was something I wanted to test.
“true beauty.”
“No, but this bastard has been subtly ignoring what I said earlier.”
The irritated man froze on the spot instead of trying to attack.
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
This is because the ‘Token of the Continent King’ hanging around Daeseong’s neck spewed out light and soon summoned ‘Rune Quiella’.
Men and soldiers were astonished when a goddess with a body so large that it almost took up an entire area of the crossing appeared.
‘If you save it, it will only collect dust.’
It is a reward earned at best. Even after gaining something, I had to go through something so annoying that I felt like I had lost something.
So, I wanted to take this opportunity to see how useful it would be.
Daeseong spoke to Rune Quiella, who was floating behind him like a ghost.
“I don’t want to get my hands dirty. “Your flame could burn down their shields.”
[Of course.]
“Then go and burn it.”
[Would it be possible?]
Although she said so, Rune Quela had an insidious dark heart.
As Daesung said, she puffed out her cheeks to emit sparks. But the targets were not men and soldiers.
You damn human! I’ll take revenge!
She planned to take advantage of Daesung’s attention and set off a spark behind his back. I was convinced that now that we couldn’t make eye contact, I would definitely be able to burn this insolent human being to death!
< The demons of Pandemonium are indignant at Rune Quiella, telling her not to do anything useless. > < The demons of Pandemonium beg the Absolute to look back! >
There was no need to look back. I had already expected that this goddess with a broken personality would hit me in the back.
Daesung still had his eyes fixed on the man and soldiers in front of him, only moving his lips.
“Liberation of the dead soul.”
Hiyaaaaaaaaa!
[Aaaah!]
From Rune Quiella’s perspective, it must have looked like a black beehive suddenly swirling around her lower body. Because she was in the same position as the heel of Daesung, where the door to Pandemonium opens.
And the sight of thirty ghosts jumping out would have looked like a swarm of bees pouring out of a beehive.
Knock knock!
[I can’t go away, you guys! stop! Argh-!]
“You understand now, right? “Even if you plot a hundred days, it won’t work.”
[Oh, I understand! Sorry sorry! So please…!]
“If you understand, just do as I say.”
Rune Quiella, covered in bees all over her body, cried, puffed out her cheeks, and poured out flames.
Wow-!!
Fire magic erupted as if the sun was sinking to the ground. The men and soldiers who were deploying the haze defense shield with great vigor could not help but turn pale at this moment.
“Oh my god!”
“Captain, this is out of the question!”
There is no way to stop it! The words of a soldier who tried to shout… were blown away by the wind.
The shield melted away the moment it collided with the flames emitted by Rune Quiella.
Needless to say, the fate of the men and soldiers who depended on only one layer of defense would be the end.
‘What were they doing?’
Even though I was satisfied with the formidable firepower of Rune Quiella, such questions arose. When I thought about it, I didn’t even know the man’s name yet.
The reason I felt interested was no different.
That man overpowered a commanding officer even armed with orihalcon.
It was necessary to confirm whether all randos in Plomaria were as strong as men or whether only men had special characteristics.
“Thank you for your hard work and I wish you the best in the future.”
[yes yes… Of course.]
“Go in.”
[Please call me again next time…]
Daeseong looked haggard and bowed down as he sent Rune Quela back into the necklace.
If she is educated to this level, she will never be able to climb again unless she has the ability to learn.
“Where then…”
He shifted his gaze towards the man’s body.
The ashes of the body fluttered in the night wind and no trace could be found, but fortunately, a single white bone remained.
Daesung decided to use it as a medium to look into memories with < Devil's Eyes >.
‘I guess I can dig up information about Envet Rosen using this.’
just as expected. After combing through memories as trivial as dust, Daesung was able to find out the man’s identity, the general providence of the world of Plomaria, and information about the One and Only Empire.
However, what Daesung really paid attention to was not the part about the queen, which was closely related to the achievement of the feat.
A more secret and deep
forbidden area of the One Empire.
The dead man’s name was Sizef. Well, that’s not important.
What is important is that Sizef was the closest associate and colleague of Knight Commander Einfried, and was a man who held an important position in the empire.
So, I was able to find out information about Geumyeok that only a very small number of people knew about.
‘If you do well, this…?’
The moment when one of your worries is resolved.
Daesung had to completely revise his perception that Plomaria, whose origin level was only mid-level, was useless…
***
“….”
“Relax the President’s expression. “If anyone sees it, they will think we have come to kill you.”
In the office of the main building of the Blue House, the President and Einfried were facing each other across a desk.
It was a ridiculous sight, but it was true that Einfried and his troops had actually done something ridiculous.
Even if the main gate was breached, the security team had enough manpower to block them. The problem is that they were all swept away by lightning magic.
In the process, Ain threatened the one survivor he left behind on purpose and brought the president, who was hiding in an underground bunker, to the surface.
And only after numerous casualties had occurred since then did the current situation arrive with the president’s suggestion to stop and resolve the issue through dialogue.
The President, who was very withdrawn, pursed his lips and then let out his voice with difficulty.
“…What do you want?”
“I believe you heard the message I announced earlier. “I would like to designate this country, or the entire world, as a dependent country of our sole empire.”
“Do you think people will remain silent even after committing such nonsense? It’s a dependent country. “I refuse.”
“I didn’t come here to ask your opinion. It’s a notice. “There has to be that level of procedure and courtesy.”
Einfried laughed under his breath.
“And you think you’ll stay still? What will you do if you don’t stay still? Isn’t this your royal palace? If it were a royal palace, the knights who stopped us earlier would all have been senior level, right? But look. They’re all dead. “We didn’t get hurt at all.”
“….”
“Surrender is sometimes passed down as a virtue to future generations. “I don’t know why, but the world you live in is threatened by an external enemy.”
Monster at the gate. And it was referring to an abnormal situation that had suddenly been occurring all over the world a few hours ago.
“Are you saying that if we come under your wing, you will protect us from external enemies?”
“also! “He is wise, perhaps because he reigns at the top.”
“Unfortunately, humanity also has the power to protect itself.”
“Eh? “You certainly don’t mean to refer to those as ‘power,’ do you?”
Ain blatantly raised his eyes and pointed to the office door.
The president’s neck twitched as he swallowed dry saliva.
This is because a terrible scene unfolded in the hallway beyond that tightly closed door.
“I tell you this with sincere concern, Mr. President. “If those minnows are in charge of national defense, the kingdom’s lifespan will not last even 10 years.”
“….”
“Accept our protection. Yes, as a leader, your pride may be a bit hurt. But if you can promote the safety of all people by bending your pride, wouldn’t that be a good thing?”
Perfect! Einfried snapped his fingers. Then, a light smoke burst out and a scroll fluttered in the air.
Einfried snatched it from the desk and thrust it towards the president.
“This is a document that states that our continent, Plomaria, will become your country’s suzerainty. “Whether you sign in the space at the bottom or stamp the national seal, you can do whatever you want.”
“….”
The President looked at the scroll with empty eyes… and then picked it up.
Then, he glanced at the contents written in the unknown alien language and spoke.
“I won’t deny it. “Your race is stronger than our race.”
Squeak-.
The roll, which was made of a material closer to toilet paper than paper, was torn in half under the president’s grasp.
Beyond the scroll that was divided into two, Einfried’s grim frown could be seen.
“But there is one man in humanity who is much stronger than you.”
The President spoke with a forced smile on his face as if nothing had happened.
Then, Einfried’s grim and wrinkled expression changed to one of regret. He shook his head.
“Ah… I thought you were a saint, but I’m disappointed.”
Sreung-!
Einfried jumped up from his seat and pulled the sword out of its scabbard.
The president, who decided to die in that brief moment, resolutely closed his eyes.
Qua-ang!
That is, until the office door suddenly shattered.
“…!”
Not only the president, but also Einfried, who was about to swing his sword, looked at the place in surprise.
Two burnt armored soldiers were rolling into the office. They were the ones who stood guard at the entrance until five seconds ago.
“They say they’ll just go in and talk, but they’re being really strict.”
The moment the President saw the face and voice of the man who burst into the office, he almost burst into tears.
The strong man he had just spoken of as he tore open the scroll.
Because that man appeared.
“….”
On the other hand, Einfried looked at his dead subordinate for a moment and then glared fiercely at Daesung, the man who came in. Even though he was dealing with two elite soldiers, the man didn’t seem to be suffering at all.
Einfried opened his mouth with a shadow cast over his face.
“Who are you?”
“There’s no need to know that. Instead, I want you to know my gift.”
Swish.
Daesung threw ‘something’ towards Einfried with a light motion.
Einfried, who quickly realized that it was not a surprise attack, received it.
“…?”
White bones.
It was someone’s white skeleton, with clear traces of being scorched by fire.
Ain narrowed his eyes and asked.
“What is this?”
“gift.”
“So I asked what it was.”
“Your friend Sizef.”
