Chapter 82 – Akuma (1)Jukma looked at his surroundings.
Patriarch of Lighthouse, Michael, and Patriarch of Helper, Gichul, and other patriarchs of the Six Great Clans.
Though they had gathered from time to time if there were things to discuss but this was the first time when all six had gathered like this.
But there was no time to chitchat.
Jukma looked at Michael as he spoke.
The thing which had been quiet for 20 years suddenly went on a rampage.
Jukma grinded his teeth at Michael who didn’t reply.
At those words a few people who had been quite dissatisfied nodded their heads.
The fact that he killed the Calamities was amazing.
It might be different if they were going to stay here longer but the Red Zone’s peace did not matter to them who were going to go up soon.
If it ended at the Ouroboros coming down then they wouldn’t have really said anything.
Jukma, who had seen the five to one scenario, made a satisfied expression as he got to the main point.
Kang Hansoo.
They scoffed at him at first.
Since they knew that two of the Four Great Calamities had been killed by that guy.
Kang Taeho, who held the responsibility as the Union Head of the Triple Lights Union, quietly listened and then spoke out:
“Bring that guy. If he had killed two of the Four Great Calamities then he should know something about this situation too.”
From the start they had never even considered the fact that Hansoo killed the Calamity Fish with his battle strength.
Sofía Vargera who had gotten strong at an illogical pace with her trait, Library, still took 3 years to get strong.
Which meant that the thing they needed was the intel and the method to solve the current situation.
Kang Taeho signed inwardly.
They were that desperate.
Michael grinded his teeth inwardly as he saw the other clan Patriarchs glaring at him.
He wanted to block them but there was no way for him to.
How could they block one of the Seven Departed Souls with just 150 people.
Once logic and reality got too far apart from each other people tended to think of logic more than reality.
Especially more so if the person was an existence that defied all rules like the one in front of him.
‘This… Is more than enough for the reward for killing the Calamity.’
“I don’t know where he went. But… I have thoughts of sharing the things I’ve obtained.”
The moment his words ended, the clansmen of Lighthouse who had received the orders held onto huge amounts of items as they slowly walked towards the Pillars. Chwajajajak
They were headed towards the heart of the World Tree that was located above the Lake where the Pillars sprouted from.
‘This is a newcomer?’
There was a need to dissect his battle strength objectively.
‘Though it’s amazing… There’s a limit to transferring this to his battle power.’
But there was a limit on how much of this mana Hansoo could actually absorb.
Like how a power plant didn’t use all the energy it generated.
Sofía was angry but she decided to recognize the things she needed to recognize.
Though it wasn’t an infinite amount of mana but an amount of mana that had exceeded the limit of a human with that much mana control. ‘He might really be able to get Akuma…’
This guy was quite amazing too but Akuma was a thing that made one scared the moment one saw it.
The six huge pillars that towered up from the grounds got closer and closer to each other as they went further up and eventually combined into one.
An entrance that was covered with various skills and artifacts.
At that location the other six people who had received Sofía’s message were gathered.
Kyle Cooper.
Arc Mariangt.
Tina Charliz. Hansoo looked over to the thing that was located in the center of the giant area behind the seven people.
It’s body couldn’t be seen because the chains had tightly and heavily tied him down but the evil aura was spreading out through the chains.
‘Akuma.’
The fifth Divine Stone Fragment existed within the
Basically it had a different mana wave than Hansoo’s mana wave.
Hansoo looked at the tens of thousands skeletons spread around the Akuma.
Ekim and Kaghon.
Though those two had failed, they had succeeded in sealing the incomplete Calamity, Akuma. ‘Though it seems like that thing acts as the thing that protects that guy.’
If he were to pull out the chains in order to kill him then the energy flowing into the chains will flow into Akuma and cause it to gain back its strength again.
‘It seems it doesn’t like intruders in the system.’
Like a living creature becoming much more vicious. Miyamoto looked at Hansoo and spoke with a happy expression.
Miyamoto laughed with a peaceful expression.
This new friend was a type that provoked one’s curiosity in numerous ways.
But there was something he could guess.
The owners of the Six Pillars who had found this place along with him.
‘Shall we see?’
He understood that this guy called Hansoo was strong but he had seen the Akuma for too long to get shocked by that.
“…The two around the Akuma weren’t the only ones. For there to be three more.”
That the three relics around Hansoo were the same type as the two on Akuma’s body.
Miyamoto smiled brightly.
With those relics he will be able to suppress it with a stronger seal for a while. ‘Things will become easier.’
“Let’s tie down the Seal on the Akuma with those for now. Then our movements will become easier so we will be able to handle the parasites below. You can leave in between then. You haven’t… Seen the Akuma so you probably spoke like that. Look over there. Can you kill that thing?”
There wasn’t much to talk about Ouroboros, that incomplete creature was sending off such an aura.
It might be different once the Ouroboros came down but with this current situation they had to save the people who can go through the mirror before the Ouroboros came down and the Akuma got released.
Since that guy was thinking the exact opposite of what he was planning.
‘Well. He might not know that I’ve done that yet.’ Hansoo sighed quietly.
And the Seven Legacies left behind by the fallen races.
The first stage was the World Tree.
It wasn’t anyone’s wrongdoing but their views were different.
In order for them to understand, he needed to reveal the future’s story but then the invasion would get faster.
Hansoo shook his head and then spoke.
“What?”
Miyamoto’s eyelids were slightly raised at Hansoo’s words. [Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter]
Jukma squinted his eyes as he saw the clansmen of Lighthouse walking towards them from the distance.
Though he had only a few gears on, every one of them looked oppressing.
And Seven including herself.
By using the energy of the Divine Stone Fragment that plummeted down from the top of the World Tree.
This might be one of the reasons why Keldian had decided to keep this place a secret.
Since he had come up right after he hit the tail, this guy might not know it if he was focused on the Akuma’s seal.
