Chapter 160: God-Killing Spear (1)

Translation: Nadu

Edit: Lesurous

A night of pleasure had passed and the morning light of day brightened .

Seraphina fell asleep with her eyes closed .

However, Muyoung wasn’t able to fall asleep .

He never had the experience of having someone sleep next to him .

It was unfamiliar and there were also many things he needed to think about .

‘Hesitation . ’

Muyoung read that in Seraphina’s eyes yesterday .

Although Seraphina seemed like she was following Muyoung, she had a tinge of hesitation .

The worries would be regarding her positions as a cult judge and Muyoung’s identity .

And so, if he was to act rashly, he could ruin everything .

Perhaps the reason why Seraphina gave her body to Muyoung might be to find out Muyoung’s real identity .

Total trust was tabooed .

If it was most men and not Muyoung, they would have lost their mind by Seraphina’s actions but Muyoung didn’t let his guard down .

Seraphina was beautiful, strong, and pure, but she had poison .

Seraphina was described as a flying serpent so it wasn’t right to believe in a snake’s cold heart .

Slowly .

The moment you were in a hurry, meant that it was a losing fight .

He wanted to know information regarding the God-Killing Spear but he still had a lot of time .

Until he was able to erase all of herhesitation, Muyoung placed a mask on himself .

If Seraphina was to find out the truth about Muyoung…

If she was to find out about Luciferre, Asura, and Oom, she would try to stab Muyoung without any hesitation .

But that didn’t mean Muyoung was the type to just let her do that, and if he earned Seraphina, there were a lot of advantages .

Information on Mulalan couldn’t be easily collected, even by the Forest of Death .

The assassins who entered there died 9 times out of 10 .

Five became servants of a god and four became idiots .

Only one returned .

That was how high Mulalan’s defense was .

For Muyoung, Seraphina was, of course, mouthwatering since she would bring inside information to him .

‘I need to check the things Alexandro hid . ’

He raised his body .

He got dressed and started his day .

After hearing the rumors, one by one, people entered the Great City .

They wanted to find out the truth about the rumors .

If he was truly an angel, or a fraud pretending to be one!

However, after that day, Muyoung didn’t go outside .

He stayed inside the castle .

To be exact, the underground of the castle .

For days, he confirmed and analyzed the ‘trial’ Alexandro made deep inside the castle

‘Trial boxes . ’

As Muyoung looked at a black cube, he rubbed his chin .

A trial box was an item where a trial and rewards were placed .

They were all over the place .

The number was a staggering 100 .

These seemed like ‘training boxes’ that Alexandro had prepared .

It seemed like he categorized them so that he could train the strong or use them for his own use .

‘They are training boxes that allowed you to raise your pure stats . ’

It was the result he made after analyzing them .

All boxes didn’t really have a reward .

Instead, these trials were set to require extreme physical labor .

The intention was obvious .

It was like a training room to raise pure stats .

Although he made them on large scales, it seemed like he didn’t get the chance to use them .

‘I have to try them and take them . ’

The tips of Muyoung’s lip slightly went up .

He thought about the message that was related to these in Alexandro’s journal .

[The training trials are optimized to raise pure stats . Although stats on equipment, achievements, and supporting options do help, they are not pure strength . We need to engineer our body and our mind to prepare for the unknown 6th metamorphosis . The trial box is only for that purpose . ]

6th metamorphosis!

There was no one who had achieved that standard yet .

After 40 years, there were few people who he thought had achieved 6th metamorphosis but it was still an unknown territory .

The 5th metamorphosis was known to be the limit of mankind .

Muyoung had also achieved 4th metamorphosis at the moment .

There were stories that if someone was to achieve 6th metamorphosis, they became a transcendental being, a god, gained infinite strength, etc .

For this unknown 6th metamorphosis, Alexandro thought he needed to increase his pure stats even more .

Certainly, the pure stats have been an indicator of metamorphosis .

However, how many people could raise their pure stats to 500, 600?

It couldn’t be achieved simply by effort .

It was still lacking even with brilliant talent and the matching investments .

It really needed the arrangement from heaven .

It was only possible if someone goes through a strange chance, luck, or a miracle that couldn’t be explained with words .

‘This is good . ’

However, Muyoung agreed with Alexandro’s opinion .

Pure strength was important .

On top, due to his wings, the balance of his body collapsed .

He needed to train anyhow, but Alexandro had prepared the trials for him .

Thud!

Muyoung took off his equipment .

After making it all into a talisman, he placed it in his Infinite Pouch .

Anguish as well .

It was a place where he could raise pure stats . If he was to receive help from his items, the effect would decrease by half .

And although the trial boxes hadn’t entered use, the foundation was complete .

From the beginning, these were only completed recently .

It seemed like he had contacted the Sky Devil right after they were complete .

‘I need to taste it first . ’

Muyoung relaxed his shoulders .

Alexandro’s arrangement . He needed to find out what that was .

The content of the trial box was different from box to box .

Even the difficulty was all sorts .

Easy trials were simple and hard ones were even difficult for Muyoung to clear .

For example, there were trials that you simply needed to hit scarecrows while there were others that were truly a repetitive training where you needed to move mountains .

It seemed like Alexandro thought the repetitive training was the best way for the body to adjust and strengthen .

“Wooheehee . Husband, why are you shoveling?”

When Muyoung was working hard to move a mountain, Woohee appeared .

Woohee would be busy for some time to commemorate the fairy king with other fairies .

But she sometimes appeared like this .

Muyoung didn’t reply .

He didn’t even have time to answer .

He was sweating like a pig .

It was a task of moving a mountain using just a shovel .

Without the use of equipment, and using only pure strength .

Nevertheless, it was a speed that was incomparable to a normal human . Still, he felt it had been a while since he had done such physical work .

The rise in stats was not fast .

However, it was rising steadily .

It was already his 29th trial .

As he carried the last pile of dirt with his shovel, the following message popped up .

It took a whole 4 days and 2 hours .

If it was a normal person, it would have taken them at least a few years, but Muyoung did it in just a few days .

Depending on the trial, a talisman was given .

Just a plain piece of paper that didn’t have any abilities .

‘It seems like if I collect them something else will be created . ’

However, a talisman wouldn’t be given out without a reason .

Muyoung instantly started the next trial .

He stepped on top of the cliff .

Quaaack!

An enormous typhoon blew from both sides .

At the same time, Muyoung’s body floated .

It was because the resistance received by his wings couldn’t endure them .

* * *

All Muyoung did was eat, sleep, and complete trials .

At times, he did eat with Seraphina but that was all .

Almost for a month, he did that .

And he was now completing his 90th trial .

Moving a mountain took the most time but normal trials took about six hours .

Easier ones ended as soon as he started .

The problem was this trial .

Thump! Thud!

A steel giant appeared in the 90th trial .

If he simply needed to fight and win, it wouldn’t have been difficult .

However, the content was strange .

A triathlon against a steel giant!

Throw 300 kg cannonball, swimming through an ocean, finish a 420km course without going astray just by running .

The steel giant was created to specialize in these three courses .

‘It stimulates a certain amount of amusement, fulfillment, and enthusiasm . ’

He lost in a row .

But, it was fun .

It was a type of training Muyoung had never done before .

He didn’t need to kill anyone, didn’t have to experience the limits of pain, and his stats went up . He became stronger .

Something like this was possible?

All the trials stimulated his whole body and made him surpass his limits .

The process was natural like water flowing .

If this could be commercialized and useable universally, other people would be able to raise their strength at a tremendous pace .

‘This also was a privilege of the upper class . ’

However, even in the past, it wasn’t used universally .

Muyoung planned to take these and use them for full-fledged development .

‘If you could feel joy in getting stronger…’

His mouth dried .

Muyoung was excited .

It was because all the ‘strength’ Muyoung had experienced came from the extreme .

To survive . It was all from fights where it was kill or be killed .

Even if you had talent, you couldn’t win against someone who enjoyed what they were doing .

This idea of Alexandro was completely different .

“Tin can, let’s do it again . ”

Muyoung spoke to the steel giant .

Then, a line was drawn in front of Muyoung .

Thump!

With that sound, the giant started to run .

A 420km long race .

Muyoung was able to barely get a win after 16 losses .

Adaptation .

Human’s ability to adapt was truly amazing .

And you could say Muyoung was at the edge .

‘I’m slowly adjusting to my wings . ’

He was able to move his wings .

When he surpassed 100 trials, Muyoung was even able to tuck his wings in .

At the same time .

An A-Space Talisman!

Like the word, it was a new space given only to Muyoung .

It was a place where physical law worked, and he could also enter it himself .

‘He made an A-Space . ’

He probably created a huge A-Space and shared it with the people who passed all the trials as well .

And what about the Sage’s Potion?

‘Was there a stat he should enlighten?’

Most stats were all enlightened .

Although it was randomly strong, depending on the time and place the stat that became enlightened changed, he needed to think about it more .

‘I need to think about it slowly . ’

Muyoung placed the Sage’s Potion to the side for now .

The Sage’s Potion was a very precious item that was priceless .

It was an item which had reasons for its use even if he didn’t want to use it yet .

Then, Muyoung made all 100 trial boxes into talismans .

His pure stats also greatly increased .

At least, the case of his equipment having higher stats didn’t occur any longer .

‘These are… amazing . ’

After using them himself, the average of humans would greatly increase if these trial boxes were commercialized .

It was even better for beginners .

Rather, if they were to start by completing this trial, at least their lives wouldn’t end in a violent death .

It was also worthwhile for existing strong men to complete .

Even experiencing that you could get stronger in this way could be an opportunity to throw away a person’s own limits .

Alexandro .

If this was something he made on purpose, you could say he was worthy to be called a genius .
