Chapter 225: Omen of the Ruin (7)

Muyoung was trapped inside the shell .

To be exact, you could call it a cocoon .

It was in the midst of a transformation to assimilate a new type of strength .

This type of phenomenon occurred when Muyoung completely grasped Luciferre’s soul .

‘Taking in the divinity in my body . ’

Although Muyoung was together with Luciferre, he couldn’t use Luciferre’s divinity .

At most, he could only ‘imitated’ it .

If Muyoung was immortal, he shouldbe able to exhibit true divinity .

But, currently, Muyoung was in the process of becoming immortal .

He had fully absorbed Luciferre’s soul . He had opened the door Luciferre had locked and forcefully took over the house after he had entered .

It was absurd to Luciferre, the owner of the house, but he was currently fully dissolved by Muyoung . His soul was shredded by the raid of Muyoung and reborn again .

Now, in Muyoung’s house… he had become Muyoung’s .

And Muyoung was going through the process of shedding to renovate the house to match him . A transparent egg was created and Muyoung was in the center of it .

With his eyes closed, without any consciousness .

‘To become divinity itself . ’

He repeated it as if it was a mantra . He felt as though he was immersed in a cloudy dream since Muyoung couldn’t move his body like he wanted to .

And in that process, a new strength surged .

It was ‘Gabriel’s strength’ .

The incorruptible strength started to threaten Muyoung’s soul .

Perhaps… Gabriel’s strength has justified that becoming immortal was ‘corrupt’ .

Well, it would be just for a mortal to become immortal .

An unexpected variable . The change continued unstably .

Although it wasn’t stopped, Gabriel’s strength resisted strongly . It couldn’t accept a mortal ascending into immortality .

However, it was helpless to stop the change itself .

As the skin of immortal Luciferre combined with the soul of Muyoung, a robust membrane was created .

On the other hand, Gabriel’s strength was weakened .

So, he made another move .

If a mortal turning immortal was corruption, he just needed to make the soul compatible to an immortal being . He was forcefully trying to rewrite his soul onto Gabriel’s strength .

In other words… he started to make a being that was Muyoung, but not Muyoung .

If he couldn’t stop it from interfering, he was going to change the content of it .

From a certain perspective, it could be perceived as though Gabriel’s actions are steering Muyoung towards the best path of becoming a ‘true immortal’ . Should he succeed in following the guidance of Gabriel’s strength, Muyoung could become a ‘true god’ .

A being that surpasses Archangel Gabriel and a god who rulesHeaven!

Of course, the content would be ‘something great’ other than Muyoung but at least, he would be able to obtain pure divinity .

But, a perfect god doesn’t have any desires .

Perhaps when he becomes a true god, Muyoung would end all work .

He might ascend as is and even create his own ‘world’ .

All the strength Muyoung had at his disposal could make it a reality .

‘Gain divinity . ’

However, the current Muyoung had a weak consciousness . It meant he could only move in the way Gabriel’s strength lead him .

Gain divinity!

The change had already ended . Muyoung’s body was successful in transplanting the skin of the immortal .

However, he was still unable to change the content within it .

A true deity who has the skin and the soul of a god was being born .

Muyoung’s soul was slowly transforming into ‘another great spirit’ .

So slowly that even Muyoung himself couldn’t realize .

His expression changed .

An expression that seemed completely gentle .

It was an expression Muyoung had never shown before .

‘Empty . ’

Life was extremely short . Even if he had come back, he didn’t even live a 100 years .

By looking at the world Muyoung had experienced until now, it was trivial .

They were things that he could only express as empty .

Emotions were also the same . Emotions were a double-edged sword that could scour everything .

If everything could be erased…

It was at that moment .

“Mister!”

Tap! Tap!

From the outside, someone touched the egg .

However, it was blocked by a thick wall .

In this process, the intrusion of something external was not allowed . No matter who the opponent was, it was impossible to pierce through this egg .

That should be the norm .

“Mister, please don’t disappear!”

A girl who tapped the egg, Suzy was in a hurry .

The ‘Lineage of Light’ Suzy had was a strength that made all choices run evenly and correctly . In fact, all of Suzy’s stats were the same . This was the power of the Lineage of Light .

It also maximized one’s senses and prevented them from going the wrong way .

The sense that was activated due to the Lineage of Light was telling him this .

The six senses . Although they were primitive and instinctive senses, they transcended everything and told the truth .

If he continued like this, he would disappear…

He didn’t know how he would disappear . But, he needed to prevent it from continuing any further .

“Please, please…!”

For a moment, Suzy’s hands started to shine .

The ‘Lineage of Light’ had responded to ‘Gabriel’s strength’ .

They were both similar but different strengths . However, the ‘part that made them similar’ created confusion .

Gabriel’s strength was now weakened . And Muyoung was putting all his efforts into transforming his soul .

Gabriel’s strength mistook Suzy’s strength of light as the same kind .

In that state, Suzy entered the egg .

Suzy didn’t panic and decided on what she needed to do next .

She forcefully dragged Muyoung’s body outside of the egg .

Swoosh!

As soon as Muyoung left the egg, the structure collapsed .

It became plain ‘water’ and fell on the floor .

“Cough! Cough!”

Suzy who turned her head from side to side instantly turned her gaze to Muyoung .

“Mister, are you…”

But, she couldn’t continue to speak .

Surprisingly, Muyoung had already opened his eyes .

It was because Muyoung became conscious the moment when the Suzy broke into the area .

If Suzy was slightly late, Muyoung’s spirit would have evaporated as is . He would have forgotten all the joys and lived as a ‘great vessel’ .

“It was dangerous . ”

Even Muyoung realized this .

To be exact, he realized this the moment he woke up .

‘I nearly lost everything . ’

A great vessel?

A true divinity?

It’s good . All good . But, it was more important for him to not forget himself .

There was no meaning in gaining strength if he wasn’t himself .

If Suzy was a bit late, he would have lost what was most important to him .

‘I’m Muyoung . ’

Muyoung decided to live the present .

His name itself was proof of his commitment .

Forgetting his resolution was like becoming a living corpse .

It was better for him to be dead .

‘Gabriel’s strength…’

Muyoung thought about the process .

Gabriel’s strength malfunctioned and tried to make Muyoung’s spirit noble .

Was it because the definition of ‘corruption’ was different even though he didn’t want it?

However, rather than becoming noble, Muyoung liked the trenches more . At least in the trenches, he was able to always feel alive .

“You are mister Muyoung, right?”

Suzy spoke in a quiet voice .

Muyoung knew of Suzy . He had met her close up when he attacked the Great City with Ellarsigo .

“How are you here?”

“I followed your trace . I want to ask you about a lot of things . I have a lot of questions but…”

Suzy was in tears .

Then, she leapt towards him and hugged him .

“I’m glad . I thought you were disappearing . ”

Suzy cried out loud .

It wasn’t simply because she met him again .

Sadness, yearning, and all the complex and suppressed emotions she had overflowed when she saw Muyoung .

Muyoung stayed still .

Even though he stayed still, he was able to ‘empathize’ with Suzy’s emotions .

‘Did I evolve?’

Not just that .

Although he stayed still, he felt like he was able to find out all the things that were happening within a several kilometre radius .

The sound of living things breathing, and everything could be felt .

Even the cry of war and the thick scent of blood .

And…

‘Divinity . ’

He also gained divinity as a demigod . He had become half immortal .

Although he couldn’t become a true god, Muyoung understood what that meant . He stood in the middle with one foot on each side .

It could be said that he was the sole one and only .

He was able to hear the voice of small land . And naturally, understand the flow of air .

Above all, his ability to ‘empathize’ had greatly increased .

He was just able to know .

Just by staying still, he knew .

The emotions of Suzy were intense . It was at a level that was not lacking when compared with the passion of a newborn who just came out into the world .

‘Although I couldn’t completely fulfill it, the contents still exist . ’

Muyoung was so close to becoming a god .

Although he was unable to gain true divinity that created the world and put everything under it, it meant that he still had a few of its contents .

Although he wasn’t omnipotent, it was possible to show similar appearances in specific areas .

It was a harmony made by mixing Luciferre’s, Gabriel’s, and immortal’s strength .

It was enough . Rather, it was the best outcome .

As it was the result he received while he protected himself .

“I need you to help me . ”

Muyoung stretched his hand out .

Then, he touched Suzy’s forehead .

Although it was little, Muyoung’s strength started to pass over .

The light emitted from Suzy’s whole body and her physical ability started to rapidly increase .

It was only possible because it was Suzy . As Suzy entered the egg Muyoung was in before he finished his transformation, she was able to be in sync with him if only a small measure .

Also, it was possible because of the ‘Lineage of Light’ .

Suzy stopped crying .

And with a surprised face, she spoke .

“How, how did you do that?”

“I will let you know once the fight ends . There are a lot of things you need to know . ”

Things related to Bae Sungmin and the reason why he attacked the Great City .

Suzy had the right to know .

And so, there was a reason why Suzy had to follow Muyoung .

Or he needed to kill her .

The only person who could ‘psychomance’ with him had now become Suzy .

In other words, she was now able to make Muyoung confused as well as give him security .

“I think I know what I need to do . Balrog… I can hear voices in the surrounding . What kind of magic did you use?”

“I’ll let you know when after this ends . ”

Muyoung sat down .

After his transformation, he gained new strength but he needed time to recover .

He wanted to conceal and save his strength for his fight with Enroth .

Suzy would be a great help .

Suzy gulped her saliva .

For some reason, Muyoung’s voice seemed so kind . Like her father .

Could it not be him?

‘He is mister . ’

It was true . Just, he was able to ‘empathize’ . It was natural for someone to seem nice if they empathize with them .

“Don’t go anywhere . ”

“I’ll be here . ”

“Then… I’ll be back . ”

Suzy lowered her head .

As she was able to release her emotions, she felt stronger .
