《Above Your Head》Vol 2. Chapter 113: The Salvation of God (50)
Advertisement
It was widely known that Primordial Gods were very limited in how much they could intervene in their own civilizations. However, this was a very misleading fact. If the Primordial Gods were limited in their actions, how could they possibly protect their civilizations from all kinds of threats of outer space?
The truth was that the Primordial Gods did not like to intervene. They did not have any attachment or affection for the civilization they protected.
When a civilization was born, a Primordial God was born alongside it.
As beings born with the status of a creation god, Primordial Gods possessed all the abilities and powers befitting their status from the moment they were born (including omniscience). They were forced to protect their civilizations for a long time regardless of their own will. It was their duty and purpose, not a result of affection.
As such, most of the Primordial Gods were similar to unmotivated civil servants. They only served their roles because they were required to.
However… The Primordial God of Earth 34 was different.
During the Great War, the space near Earth 34 was considered one of most violent, dangerous places. It was a fierce battlefield in which numerous Noblesse, Elohim, Untouchables, and Unnamed perished. At that time, the Primordial God of Earth 34 did everything in her power to protect her planet and humanity from the countless threats, since protecting the planet from outer space invasion was one of the most important missions of a Primordial God.
She spent her own powers to bless the human race to secure a number of transcendents and protected the entire human race. She had even entered the battlefield personally to deal with a number of Ancient Gods, the Unnamed, Demon Kings, and the Dragons.
But it was simply force majure.
Despite all her hard work, she died dozens, no, hundreds of times. Even though she was immortal, she was subjected to immeasurable pain every time she died protecting humanity. It would not have been strange even if she came to hate humanity. But ironically… after fighting for such a long time to protect humanity, she became rather fond of it.
No sane person would feel sad about accidentally stepping on an ant on the streets. But if a person named the ant, nurtured it, cared for it, and observed it for a long time, they would feel sad if they accidentally killed the ant.
One might stumble across a chick in the market that cost only 500 won, but as the person named the chick and affectionately watched it grow, the life of the chick no longer cost only 500 won. Rather, when the chick became sick, the person would willingly pay hundreds of thousands of won to take it to the hospital rather than buying a new chick after letting the old one die.
At first, she had thought of humanity as a nuisance. But after dying more than a few hundred times while protecting humanity, she had become deeply attached to it. It was an emotion that the End Project did not know, and would never come to know.
I!
She could not attack the End Project directly.
Even if it was a discarded idea, the End Project was assigned a role directly by the Creation God. As a Primordial God under the Creation God, the End Project wasn’t something she could meddle with. However, a special environment called the parallel world existed on Earth 34.

She had become furious at the rampage of the End Project. She used her authority while risking quite a bit of trouble.
I’m expelling all of you!
The space monsters had been causing massive destruction all around the world. At the Primordial God’s words, they were instantly banished to the parallel world. Moreover, their placement in the parallel world was malicious.
‘If I could, I would expel all of them to the same coordinates and have them explode, but… this is my limit.’
She had gathered more than 2 billion space monsters into the middle of the Pacific Ocean without giving them even a millimeter of room. It was an amazing feat, but nothing more than a small hassle for the monsters. The space whales could travel through space at thousands of kilometers per hour. But unfortunately for the monsters, the Primordial God wasn’t the only one who was furious.
Too many humans have died.
Three gods appeared above the space monsters.
Too
Many
Have died.
Flash!
The bodies of the three gods radiated light. The scene was being broadcasted to everyone who possessed a Justice Weapon.
Wooong!
Billions of Justice Weapons appeared around the three gods. Billions of glowing lights and billions of thrones appeared as well.
All of it had belonged to those who were killed by the monster whales. Among the objects, the Justice Weapons were absorbed into the golden scales held by Justice.
Standing still for a moment, she peered into the future.
This is not suitable.
She suddenly disappeared and only a golden energy remained where she had stood. The thrones were absorbed into the pitch-black slab of Honor. He spoke as well
This is not suitable.
He disappeared and left behind a golden light.
All that remained was absorbed into the silver sword of Truth.
Truth declared.
Flying is forbidden.
Truth continued.
The evil breath will only burn within.
After speaking the two Godly Decrees, hordes of whales fell to the deep abyss of the Pacific Ocean.
Puaaaack!
The whole sea was rattled by the sudden, massive influx of monsters. However, this wasn’t the end of the whales’ disaster.
Kyaaah! Monsters!
What the hell? What are these things? How dare they barge into my front yard!!
This was the most dangerous location in the parallel world. A flock of whales were pouring down into the territory of the first-tier demons. The two groups were bound to collide.
W, wait. These things are really strong. And why are there so many of them!?
The situation fell into chaos as the whales started running amok. Originally, even first-tier demons could not face even a single one of the whale monsters. However, the monsters had been weakened by the restrictions of the three gods.
The pouring blood and screams were the best sacrament for the demons. Countless demons were awakening from various places, including the sky and places beyond the wide sea.
***
Although the Unique World had expanded in size to rival the moon, the structure of the world was fundamentally different from that of the moon. The Unique World was close to a simple chunk of large metal. There were no distinctions between the various layers, such as the crust, mantle, and nucleus. In addition, the repetitive nature of the stage provided Genie with ample time.
What would be the result of having endless time and materials?
Kiiiiiiing! Phuack!
Boom! Kieeeek!
The iron plates covering the ground opened up with a heavy sound. Countless artillery guns appeared from the ground and started to pour out an endless barrage toward the monsters. Naturally, the artillery was destroyed from a single breath of a whale monster. Although Genie had worked meticulously to create the mechanisms, the whale monsters’ breaths carried immense destructive powers. But when one artillery was destroyed, another appeared from the ground.

Poooh!
A giant railgun, which was more than 300 meters long, appeared from deep in the ground. With a loud sound, hundreds of kilograms of metal were fired towards the enemy. Although it wasn’t powerful enough to instantly kill a level 19 monster, it caused the monster to crash into the ground.
“It’s down!”
“Attack!!”
Hundreds of gigas rushed towards the fallen monster whale. Sensing the imminent crisis, the monster hurriedly turned its body and let loose a breath. However,
“Breath! Avoid it! To the corner!”
“Don’t be raising a death flag, you idiot!”
The gigas kicked off the ground. Some of them erected shields and surfed on the breath, while others leaped through space.
Guwaahk?
Even the whale monster flinched at the incredulous sight. It could not help but panic even though it only possessed the intelligence of an animal.
Not a single gigas had been hit!
“Penetration!”
“Why are you shouting the ability’s name!?”
Unfortunately, none of the strongest humans were currently in the Unique World, such as Bae Jae-Seok of Lee Sun-shin, Lee Min-Kyung of King Sejong, Kim So-Hyang of Alexander, and Alex of Lincoln. All of them had been on Earth to proceed with the stage.
Nevertheless, the numerous gigas lashed out against the monster whales.
Boooom! Puck!
Explosions riddled the monster’s body without rest. The monster whale attempted to fly up into the air somehow, but it failed in its attempt due to the strangely precise attacks targeting various positions on its body. Instead of shooting up into the air, the monster whale only spun horizontally in place.
It was spinning around with the same momentum it attempted to use to fly into the air!
The gigas were working together with such perfection that one couldn’t help but doubt their eyes. Even the monster whale could not understand why it had failed to take flight.
Boooooom!
The large figure of the monster rolled on the floor.
Since they were fighting on the sea of magnetic sand, huge waves were created as the monster crashed. However, no one was swept away by the impact. Rather, they climbed and rode the waves as if they were surfing, quickly approaching the body of the monster whale.
“There’s a limit to how much damage we can cause by attacking it from the outside! Get inside its body!’
“I know! I’m going to go set up a bomb inside, so buy me some time!”
Several gigas skillfully climbed the monster’s body, tore open its breathing holes, widened the gap, then threw themselves in. After a while, they exited the monster’s body and…
Boooom!
The monster whale stopped moving along with a deafening explosion. Similar scenes were playing out all over the Unique World.
“Good! Way to go!”
I clapped my hands with joy as the flying whales were shot down and killed.
Ares expressed his astonishment.
What the hell? Even if there are hundreds, how could Beast-rank gigas kill a level 19 space monster? Moreover, not a single death?
Genie could not hide her surprise either.
Their control…
“Yeah. It’s mine. I could only give them the technical skills. I was a bit worried since they would have to make their own judgments, but it seems they’re doing better than I thought. They’re good at utilizing their abilities at appropriate moments as well.”
I flew through the sky. It was quite dark thanks to the destruction of the artificial sun. The monster whales were still so densely packed in the sky that it gave the illusion of a wriggling sky. As I approached, the monsters howled before using their breaths.
Obviously, they didn’t stand a chance.
“Haap!”
I crushed, smashed, swung, cut, and ripped them apart!
Craack! Booom!
All the approaching monsters fell to the ground after being smashed and ripped into numerous pieces. A rain of blood and flesh saturated the sea of magnetic sands beneath my feet.
Cruaack!
I twisted my body, concentrating the weight of the gigas, the output, and energy into Gungnir. That wasn’t all.
Wooooon---!!!
Gungnir started to emit a blue light. All of my powers were transformed into dimensional vibrations and poured into the spear.
“Finally!!”
I bestowed a single attribute on Gungnir.
Shock Amplification.
Woooo--!
The world screamed as I pulled back my spear. Even though monster whales stopped in their tracks, distance was meaningless in front of a throwing spear. They could run or rush towards me and it wouldn’t make a single difference.
Booom--!!
A thunderous roar accompanied the shooting spear.
With it, everything in front of me disappeared.
……!!!
…..!!?
?!?
The screams of the monsters were scattered by the roaring spear. Genie shouted in their place.
F, Flight distance, 240.7 kilometers! 5,911 enemies have been penetrated!
What the hell is this….? Even though you’re riding me, killing 6,000 level 19 monsters with a single attack???
Even Ares was made speechless by the incredible power.
Gungnir found its place in my grasp once more.
Crrraack!!!
I twisted and prepared my body once again.
Kieeek--! Kieeek--!
Hey hey hey hey!! It hurts! It’s starting to hurt! Take it easy! Easy! My Iron Heart’s running dry!
“Stop whining. You’re a God of War, aren’t you?”
Pararak!
I concentrated and flipped open the pages of the book. I was given some breathing room with the addition of Napoleon’s Iron Heart, but in the end, an Iron Heart of a Human-rank gigas was barely enough.
Instead, I looked over the contents of the book.
*Abilities of the Day!
Flash
Flash
Pressure
Sniping
The abilities were rather useless and unsuitable for the current situation. I raised my hand and scattered the pages before equipping myself with the Carving Knife of Justice.
What are you doing?
“Nothing much.”
Then I carved the book.
“I need something.”
The contents of the book started to change. The words Flash, Flash, Pressure, Sniping disappeared and a new line of text took their place.
*Abilities of the Day!
Gluttonous Predator
I activated the ability of Leviathan, a God-rank gigas.
Kiyaaaah!
A very small monster plopped to the ground and began to devour the blood and flesh of the monster whales scattered on the ground. Although the remains of the monsters would disappear in about 10 minutes after their death, the small predator was gobbling up the remains before they could disappear.
The small predator quickly grew in size, and Ares’ power was restored as the predator feasted on the bodies.
Woooo--!
Wow, what is this? Isn’t this too fraudulent?
Ares expressed bewilderment as energy began to course through his body once more. Not bothering to answer, I poised myself and threw Gungnir once more.
