Chapter 195 . Absolute Soul (7)



“Strange…”

The number of monsters in the air was increasing . They were desperately trying to stop us . Even though the giant tuna Aikan had become an undead monster with its power as a guardian intact, it could not continue to march forward freely with so many monsters blocking the way .

“Oppa, is Uruto gone?”

“Uruto is dead . ”

“Uruto…”

Plus, after finding out that a friend had died, the children’s mood and morale had turned for the worst . They cried in Ren’s, Lebuik’s, and my embrace . Though they lasted this far in such a hopeless situation, after finding out that a friend they had talked and laughed with had been a bug the entire time, the shock caused them to lose all of their energy .

As I had told Ren and Lebuik about the truth before, they weren’t in shock, but they seemed worried about the enervated children .

‘Should I have done it differently?’

I could have easily killed the fake Uruto when the children weren’t looking . However, I didn’t do so, because there was valuable information to obtain, like how they operated .

“It’s more shocking when someone disappears suddenly . That was Book Walker’s method . Once we woke up from sleep, our friends would be gone . One by one, it was terrifying . ”

“Mm… It’s a bit different in our case though . ”

Daisy discovered what I was thinking instantly and consoled me . Perhaps, my thoughts flowed into her while I wasn’t paying attention . With a wry smile, I held up my spear and swept away dozens of monsters with a swing .

“We’ve come far . We should be able to bring the children to safety soon . ”

“About that, there’s something…”

Daisy brought herself next to me and whispered something in my ear . It was rather simple .

“The skill point I have left, if I use them, I can bring two people . To Earth, total six people . ”

I shook my head .

“No, it’s not enough . ”



“Just one, we have to give up . ”

“I’ll get mad, you know?”

“That might be, less sacrifice . We don’t know, what will come… Kang Shin might live, but the children, all might die . ”

Seeing Daisy’s serious expression, I flicked her forehead . She took a few steps back with a surprised face . With how big Aikan was, just taking a few steps back still put us on the same level .

“Don’t worry, I won’t let any of them die . ”

“But you only have talent, for fighting . ”

“I have elementals! Ren and Lebuik are trying hard too . So Daisy, please . ”

“Then, fine . You’re the guild master, I’ll respect your wishes . ”

“I know you came to help me . Thanks . ”

“To save our worlds . We are in a contract . ”

“Right, contract . ”

I grinned at her words . Perhaps because I refused her offer, her cheeks were puffed up . She looked incredibly cute .

Of course, with the situation being what it is, I couldn’t leisurely stare at Daisy . The sky was practically made of monsters that were attacking us from all directions .

“Aikan’s secret skill, Beam!”

“Is that what it was trying to use before!?”

While I asked in shock, Aikan opened its mouth and gathered mana . At its immense suction power, the monsters that were pulled inside all disintegrated from the high density of mana .

[Guaaaaaaaaa!]

Soon, a mana wave thick enough to envelop a whole building shot out from its mouth . The path taken by the mana wave shone like a white slate .

To our dismay, however, the area swept by the mana wave were filled up with monsters again in just 20 seconds . They kept coming and coming like homework . Daisy seemed to be thinking the same thing .



“… More coming, I’m tired . ”

“Can’t you use those tentacles?”

“Spines . Once per day . ”

She was still insisting on it being spines . While Daisy sulked that nothing changed even with Aikan’s mana wave, I thought about what I could do . I looked back at Ren and Lebuik . Ren was focused on taking care of the children, while Lebuik was focused on shooting down monsters with her crossbow . With that, a thought suddenly flashed across my mind .

“Haa, I really didn’t want to do this, but it looks like I have no choice…”

“What?”

“It’s a bit disgusting, so close your eyes . Gigant Time!”

Thankfully, Sky God’s Play was still in effect for about 10 minutes . Before that, however, I used Gigant Time . Without this skill, what I was about to do would have no meaning .

After I used Gigant Time, I closed my eyes and imagined the form I would take . As I had practiced many times before, I could soon feel that I transformed .


“Kyaaaa . ”

Daisy must have been extremely surprised, as she screamed without an exclamation mark . But since she screamed, it meant that the transformation was a success . I opened my eyes .

Then, feeling dizzy from the 360 degrees vision, I almost vomited .

“What did you do!?”

Lebuik, who turned around to see me after Daisy’s scream, also asked in surprise . I replied bluntly .

“Can’t you see?”

“I can’t! That’s why I’m asking! W-What is that disgusting…”

My original eyes were located further up than normal . With Sky God’s Play, I transformed my body into a 10-meter tall giant . Even Aikan probably found it hard to carry me . With this size, however, even though I would be able to move freely with my high stats, fighting would be more cumbersome than usual . Of course, I didn’t become a giant just to fight the monsters like this .

After all, what I gigantified with Gigant Time wasn’t my weapon, arms, or legs, but my eyes . I was thankful that everything went as I imagined .

“Everyone look here! If I’m what you want, come!”



[You used high-rank Provoke! All enemies burn fiercely with hatred and hostility towards you!]

It was worth holding in the dizziness and shouting . Though the El Patiz were controlling their bodies, in the end, they were still monsters, which were weak to provocation . They didn’t hide behind bigger monsters to hide from my Evil Eyes . They simply charged toward me with piercing killing intent . Of course, with so many of them, I couldn’t help but sweat at the sight of them .

Just one second afterward, a countless number of rocks fell to the ground .

“Come! Come!”

[You used high-rank Provoke! All enemies burn fiercely with hatred and hostility towards you!]

Rocks rained down . There were even monsters that lost their lives after being hit by them .

“Come!”

“So that disgusting look was on purpose…!”

I pretended not to hear Lebuik . Hundreds of eyes covering my body blinked repeatedly as they aimed at more targets .

“This is the combined power of the mythical Argos and Medusa!”

Argos, the thousand-eyed giant ordered by Hera to watch over Io and slain by Hermes . With eyes covering its body, it had no blind spots . It was the perfect appearance for my Evil Eyes!

“Come! Come attack me!”

I shouted triumphantly and blinked once again . Monsters closing in on us all turned to stone, and only the monsters with an abnormally high resistance survived . Lebuik then commented on my appearance .

“Eyes all over the body… gross . ”

“I can’t maintain it for very long anyway . ”

It was Zeus who ordered Hermes to slay Argos . As the holder of Zeus’ true name, it was a bit ironic that I took Argos’ form .

The monsters filling up the sky visibly decreased . By the time Gigant Time ended and it became hard for all of the eyes to have an equal effect, only a few powerful monsters were left .

[Gaoooooo!]

[Kuaaaaaaaa!]

Feeling satisfied by the monsters roaring after losing their friends and subordinates, I returned to my original appearance . Although Sky God’s Play should have lasted a couple more minutes, it had ended prematurely . It was perhaps because taking Argos’ form used more energy, or because I strengthened the power of my Evil Eyes with it .

Regardless, as I had obtained the result I wanted, I was satisfied . There seemed to be some hope now . With a sigh of relief, I took out a Mana Potion from my inventory .

“Aikan, forward . Crush everything . ”

[Uoooooong!]

There really were only a few left . Realizing this, Daisy ordered Aikan in a cool pose . Although it was undead, Aikan intelligently responded with a roar and charged forward . The few monsters that were left had no chance against Aikan .

“Just 5 km more, Crown Prince!”

“Ren-nim, calm down! Look forward!”

“Kuk, how can I calm down, Lebu…ik?”

Aaah, though it was a difficult journey, once we arrived at the coast, everything would be over… . Eh?

“As expected… there’s an army . ”

Of course, I’d somewhat expected it as well . I didn’t think they’d try to stop us with just monsters . However, the army standing by the coast like beach lifeguards seemed to surprise Ren and Lebuik more than me or Daisy .

“How dare they…!?”

“Dear God…”

Ren and Lebuik’s exclaimed . Did they know someone? I surveyed the ground . Though there weren’t as many as the monsters we faced in the sky, the refined spirit and keen killing intent of the soldiers radiated out . Of course, with most of them being men, there really wasn’t a reason to keep staring at them . After all, I couldn’t be certain how strong they were before I fought them .

Other than the army, I focused my attention on… the commander . Right, the strength of an army really was in the hands of its commander . I looked at the man standing in the front . Golden hair like a lion’s mane, deep wrinkles across the forehead, and brilliant golden pupils . The firm, strong muscular body, and a set of jet-black armor . Finally, in his hands, a large claymore .

He was too similar to someone I knew . In fact, they almost had the same face . No matter how dense I was, it wasn’t hard to figure out who he was .

“Your… Highness…!”

“Kuuk, Father…!”

“…”

The last trial awaiting us at the coast . It was none other than the Panan continent’s Hero, and the world’s enemy .
