Chapter 148: Absolute Predator (1)

TL: Nadu

Edit: Lesurous

Muyoung opened his eyes .

Then, he looked at the world .

The rough wind and air blew across his skin .

Refreshment was the first thing he felt .

Even the scent of blood that brushed against the tip of his nose approached him like a welcome surprise .

How long has it been since he smelled it?

How long has it been since he felt the warmth of a body?

As he stretched out his hand, he began to recognize the sensations . He started to remember one by one the things he forgot after spending so much time dully .

‘It’s imperfect . ’

However, the body was terrible .

Compared to his main body, it was at the level of embarrassment .

Muyoung… No, Luciferre clicked his tongue .

But, it wasn’t all bad .

He was wearing clothes that didn’t suit him but it wasn’t like his godship had disappeared .

Luciferre turned his gaze .

A half-crushed skeleton was rolling on the ground .

This guy, he was also familiar .

“Tacan, get up . ”

Swaaaak!

From his hands, an opaque energy poured out .

Afterwards, as Tacan was wrapped in it, his bones reformed and within time became complete .

‘An unpleasant energy is mixed in . ’

However, there was the Sky Devil’s purplish energy mixed in with Tacan’s aura .

To be precise, the sword Tacan held… that’s where it was all gathered .

Luciferre took Tacan’s sword .

Brrrr!

A purple energy . The Sky Devil’s power crazily shook .

As if it was struggling .

However, it soon calmed down .

Luciferre completely won against him in strength .

Tooong!

As if he had done his job, Luciferre threw the sword on the ground like garbage .

Then, Tacan regained his senses .

“This…where isthis? Why am I on the battlefield?”

Tacan looked at Luciferre as he blinked his eyes .

Luciferre also turned his gaze to Tacan and started to speak .

“Do you still see me as Muyoung?”

“If you are not Muyoung…”

Afterwards, Tacan became silent for a moment as he felt something strange .

And then he took a step back .

Although it was only a step, there was a lot of meaning behind it .

Tacan, who was always quick to act recklessly, became hesitant for a moment .

“Luciferre-nim?”

“Now you recognize me . ”

“However, that body…”

“I have eaten up his soul . For a human, he had quite the high-quality soul . ”

Thump!

Tacan stopped .

Luciferre was a true sovereign of Asura’s Path .

A leader whom Tacan and another king followed . However, Tacan acted as an independent entity after escaping Asura’s Path .

However, once again he was involved with Luciferre .

Tacan’s feelings became complicated .

There was a lot to learn from Muyoung .

On the other hand, he couldn’t learn from Luciferre . It was because he was inherently strong and because their difference was too big .

What could he learn from someone who was strong from the moment they were born?

‘If his soul was eaten, I probably won’t see him again . ’

There was no way for Luciferre to make a mistake .

If his soul eaten , it meant that it was already destroyed .

It meant that he could never see Muyoung from now on .

It was a strange feeling .

The time they spent together was short and there weren’t really any good memories .

“Your old friend misses you a lot . ”

“Are you talking about Calla? He isn’t my friend . ”

Calla was a king who was in a rivalry with Tacan in Asura’s Path .

If Tacan was the Evil Spirit Predator, Calla was the Evil Spirit Seeker .

They had the opposite tendency of each other .

They both proclaimed themselves as the ‘king’ of evil specters and didn’t hesitate to compete with each other .

“Like how you came out, shouldn’t Calla also come out to make a good fight? Just in time, this body learned something quite useful . ”

Tacan used a Death Knight’s body to come out to this world .

Luciferre ate Muyoung’s soul and took his body .

It was also the same for Calla . He needed a body to possess .

Luciferre raised his hand .

Then, the surrounding corpses were drained of their blood .

Soon, magical circles were created in the surroundings and blood completely filled in other areas .

As the blood gathered, it shaped into a muscular humanoid form .

With a blood-red cape and sharp fangs, the appearance was without a doubt a vampire .

Soon the man opened his blue eyes .

Then kneeled towards Luciferre .

“Calla greets the Evil Spirit Sovereign . ”

“The form I created for you is a counterfeit Jinzhou Vampire . . Since that is your race, it shouldn’t be a big problem for you to move . ”

“It’s an honor . ”

Calla slightly raised his head and looked at Tacan .

Tacan turned his gaze away .

It was because someone he didn’t like had appeared .

Either way, Tacan couldn’t be free after Luciferre had appeared .

Tacan had to accompany him and do what he wanted .

A moment later, Calla asked .

“But, sovereign . What are you trying to do here?”

“First… I need to bring down those who pretend to be gods without knowing their place . ”

Luciferre wasn’t technically a god .

He was someone who almost became a god .

So, he hated to see those who rampaged without knowing their place .

‘He dares to try and use me, the Evil Spirit Sovereign?’

In addition, he felt uncomfortable thinking that this was the work of someone .

Since Luciferre wasn’t the type to not know that Moon made a trap out of Tacan and made Tacan fight against Muyoung for him to come out .

“Then, would you kill all the humans in the surrounding?”

Luciferre hated weak humans .

It was also the same for those who were present without his approval .

Normally, Luciferre didn’t allow even a single human to live in his surroundings .

“No, there is even a more unpleasant energy raging . I need to kill them first . ”

Calla was slightly surprised .

If it was his usual self, Luciferre would have just ordered them to simply massacre everyone .

Then, Luciferre turned his gaze to the devotees of the Sky Devil .

Although humans were bothersome, those who had the powers of the fake god were more disturbing .

It was odd but either way,  the priority of exterminating the humans was just pushed back probably, Calla thought .

Luciferre took out Anguish .

Zzzzzzzzing .

Anguish cried .

However, it was aggressive .

Did it recognize that he wasn’t Muyoung?

Although it was a little object, it was funny for it to differentiate owners .

Luciferre grinned as he swung the sword once .

Swwwaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Rough wind pressure .

Towards where he swung, the sword was followed by it’s image, and a sharp sword wind was created .

The Sky Devil worshipers in its path were bisected .

A good three hundred people lost their lives by one hand movement .

Everyone was baffled . Then, huge ice particles appeared around Luciferre’s body .

Claaash! Classshhhhh!

The particles instantly flew off and exploded in surrounding areas .

It was a completely different destructive power compared to the Zero Explosion that Muyoung used .

‘Why is he using the half magic of a human?’

Calla and Tacan both tilted their head .

Luciferre . The Evil Spirit Sovereign was a being that reached demigod level .

Of course, he knew how to use divine powers and authority .

Such skills were embedded in the soul, so it didn’t mean that you couldn’t use them just because your body changed .

It meant that he didn’t need to use a human’s poorer skills .

Luciferre didn’t even try to hide his powers . He always used his best attack to crush his opponent . When you thought of the usual Luciferre, it was truly odd .

However, just by using the half magic of a human, he instantly killed a few thousand soldiers .

“I can’t just stand and watch my sovereign fight . ”

Calla was the first to get up .

He looked at Tacan challengingly .

At the same time, he transformed into a few thousand bats and swept the battlefield .

Tacan blanked as he looked at the scene .

He didn’t know how to express this fidgety feeling . It might be because this was the first time they met after coming to this world but…

Tacan grabbed the sword he dropped .

‘I’ll just follow . ’

Now, Muyoung was no longer in this world .

It was in an instant .

For them to turn the table and for their enemies to cry while they died .  

Just one man changed everything .

Muyoung!

That appearance . Was he really the envoy of the Sun God?

Everyone went wild . Everyone called out Muyoung’s name .

“Oh, Sun God!”

“The Sun God is overlooking us!”

It was hard to think he was this powerful with normal reason .

With just one hand movement, a few hundred people were slain and no one was able to stop him .

However, it was slightly different than his normal strength .

As if he had become a different person .

But, it didn’t matter to the members of the Sun Guild .

Right now, Muyoung was the Sun Guild itself .

Eventually, the Command Clan, Lawless Clan, and the devotees of the Sky Devil were completely destroyed .

In the middle of it, because Hyungbish rebelled,  they couldn’t even retreat .

“Humans don’t know their place! How dare they compare a mere Sun God to Luciferre . If you command me, I’ll remove all their blood and make them shriek . ”

Calla was furious .

Luciferre was a being who failed to become a god .

Due to this, he had fallen but that was why his hatred towards gods was extraordinary .

Calla was confident that Luciferre would allow him to do so .

But, the result was the opposite .

“It’s fine . Since I’ve come out to this world, I will be generous this once . ”

Generous?

A word that didn’t seem possible for Luciferre to say popped out of his mouth .

The Evil Spirit Sovereign of Asura’s Path was a tyrant . He didn’t compromise .

That should have been the case but for him to be generous?!

Then, someone approached .

An arch lich that had a pitch dark robe on .

The guy suddenly came up and bowed his head down .

“Master, thank goodness! You’re okay!”

“Who are you?”

“It’s me . Bae Sungmin, the one who you created and gave new life to . ”

“Ahh… Bae Sungmin . What’s wrong?”

Luciferre spoke .

He spoke as if he didn’t have the slightest doubt .

There was even a bit of friendliness that could be felt through his voice instead .

“Please allow me to continue to follow you . ”

Bae Sungmin’s attitude had become strange .

If he was that strong of an arch-lich, he would have noticed that the owner of the body had changed .

However, Sungmin suddenly bowed down first .

“Sovereign, his intentions are strange . ”

Calla objected .

Luciferre shook his head .

“Calla, he is following this body anyway . And a very strong ancient spirit’s smell is given off by this guy . If it is this scent, he would have been the Disordered Terror that was once as strong as a demigod . ”

Was it because he felt kinship because he was also a demigod?

Luciferre continued to talk .

“I’m going straight to see the guy who acts like a god . Will you follow me?”

“Yes, I’ll do my best . ”

Sungmin replied in a loud voice .

Soon after, Luciferre turned around .

He looked at the Sky Library that was floating in the air .

At that place, there was someone who acted to release him .

He must have an aim . The notion of using Luciferre as a pawn was very ridiculous .

‘Those who disturb what must not be disturbed tend to be ruined . ’

Luciferre moved .

Bae Sungmin watched from the beginning since he arrived .

But, he distanced himself . It was because a bad energy flowed out .

‘He isn’t my master . ’

He could know by watching him .

He was a totally different being .

A person who had an astonishing class .

The one who truly reigned!

‘It’s strange . ’

However, it was still strange .

Muyoung’s existence reflected from him ambiguously .

And so, he checked .

Bae Sungmin had pledged his loyalty himself .

If he was a totally different person, he would reject Sungmin and if his thoughts were correct, a totally different reaction would pop out .

‘Now, I understand . ’

The results were quite satisfying .

He was mixed .

He was being mixed .

To be precise, Muyoung’s soul which he thought had disappeared was slowly eating away Luciferre’s soul .

Bae Sungmin was also unsure how his soul was still left .

However, Muyoung had returned once .

To be exact, he needed to be destroyed twice in order to make him disappear .

Bae Sungmin and no one else knew of this truth .

Thanks to this, Muyoung’s soul was moving .

Very secretly .

So that Luciferre himself wouldn’t be aware .

Although the speed was slow, he had slowly invaded the area of the soul .

The appearance was like watching  an assassination .

An assassin who had reached the peak, now aiming for their target, the movements were that .

If time just flowed like this… or if another opportunity is given .

Luciferre wouldn’t be able to notice his own death and would be absorbed by Muyoung .
