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 .
<Stamina has increased by 1 . >
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 .
<You have used a shovel to move a mountain . >
<It took 98 hours 36 minutes and 22 seconds . >
<You have been given Talisman of Training (29) . >
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 .
<This is the 30th trial . >
<Walk through a typhoon on top of a cliff where you could barely place your feet . >
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 .
<You have cleared all 100 trials . >
<A ’Sage’s Potion’ has been given as you are the first to clear 100 trials . >
<Training Talisman (100) has been given . >
<100 talismans started to gather . >
<An ’A-Space Talisman (A+)’ has been created . >
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 .
