My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness - Chapter 307

〈 Skirmish (2) 〉

Immortality, a fortress of death that is no different from the home of demons, deep in the northern mountains, now the most forbidden area in Outerica.

A woman who was busy moving around there suddenly sighed involuntarily.

“What is this happening all of a sudden?”

She was Siana, a succubus from the Demon World who unintentionally became a high-ranking official in the Immortal Army.

She stopped in place, slowly looked around, and took another deep breath.

Immortal City was now in a state of disarray.

The reason was that their ruler, the Immortal King, personally led the Legion’s elite combatants and left somewhere…

The resulting management vacuum naturally resulted in the return of heavy workload for the few remaining high-ranking executives.

‘Ah—it’s hard to even look at Olivia’s face, wondering what kind of mission she was given. As the others are away, things to clean up after them keep pouring in!’

Now, among the high-ranking officials, the only ones who remained immortal were herself, Olivia the Banshee Queen, and Archrich Dwell McCain, who controlled the lower-ranking undead.

Compared to usual times, it is almost like an empty house.

In the current situation, if a party of warriors attacked, there was a high probability that they would be helpless, but Sianna did not worry too much about it.

‘Because there are enough guys that can be used as castaways. If a situation like that really comes up, all you have to do is take care of the important things and run away.’

In any case, immortality only had a symbolic meaning and was not a very important structure in reality.

As long as the subject, the Immortal King, is safe, it can be easily recreated anytime, anywhere.

Still, if he neglected management, he could be scolded by the king when he returned later, so it was necessary to make sure that the work assigned to him was completed.

‘How did it end up like this?’

This time, she succeeded in swallowing the sigh without letting it out, and shook her head.

Of course, it wasn’t a bad thing to have a handsome and charismatic boss, but I didn’t like the fact that I wasn’t making much progress toward my personal goals while focusing on the Immortal Army’s work recently.

‘I thought I could find it easier if I borrowed this power… Where on earth is it?’

It may be surprising, but there was a reason why she, a demonic succubus, joined a secret organization called the Oath of Rebellion.

Of course, the revolutionaries approached her first, but didn’t she join them because she also had something she wanted?

Of course, I sought help from Olivia, who was in charge of information, but seeing her busy every day, I couldn’t bring myself to ask her anything.

How can I say more to a person who focuses only on work with little time to rest?

“ah-! it’s annoying! First of all, let’s finish the things we are assigned to quickly. “I need to finish it quickly and go relieve my stress.”

In the end, she screamed out of frustration and began to walk at a brisk pace again.

I was able to endure it because I had the former crown prince Simon, a toy to relieve my stress. If it weren’t for that, my patience might have worn out a long time ago.

‘In this case, I think it would have been better if I just followed along. ‘At least go on a rampage.’

Although she was far from an expert in combat, Siana’s military power was not that bad.

At least I was confident that I would be much more helpful than most executives.

Of course, the immortal king Hans had his own reasons for leaving her behind.

Inside the northern mountain range of the northeastern continent of Ion.

On the other hand, a fierce struggle was taking place between the lives and deaths of the undead.

***

Kwaaaaang—!

A violent storm accompanied by a roar that shook the heavens and earth, swirling as if it would uproot the surrounding vegetation.

The two opposing forces collided again and again, causing flashes of thunder and thunder to shake the entire area.

Although the battle had only recently begun, the surrounding land had already been devastated beyond any means.

It’s a shame because the place was deep in the mountains. If it had been inhabited, it would have already wiped out a large city.

But even in that situation, Hans did not blink an eye and glared straight at his enemy, Buncheonhoeju, right in front of him.

Even though it didn’t have real eyes.

“You seem somehow confident. “It’s definitely increased compared to when I saw it in Japan.”

[Hehehehe, you’re not as good as before, are you? Please try harder.]

“…Well, if you say it that way.”

In fact, both Buncheonhoeju and Hans were not the typical martial arts type, so the fight between them was strangely static, yet extremely splendid.

It’s like a fight over space, with energy encroaching on the surroundings all the time.

Grumble—

flash!

The sunset-colored energy of an arrogant angel flapping its large wings consumed the black darkness, and the pitch-black abyss of an evil demon king moving quickly through space swallowed up the reddish light.

It was like the chaos of light and darkness in the creation myth, and it was a workshop so far away that even those who yearned for power could only feel vague emotions.

‘…As expected, we are being pushed back. If it weren’t for the help of the executives, it would have been difficult to endure this much.’

And in a situation similar to a natural disaster.

The elite undead who had been specially selected to support Hans were being divided in real time.

[Kwaaaaaak!]

[Large dog! The moment you get swept away, it’s over! Concentrate!]

[Magic construction coordinate analysis magic amplification completed. Activated.]

Despite the storm raging that tears apart space and the deadly divine power pouring down like a shower, these solemn figures willingly throw away their bodies to create even the briefest of openings according to the king’s orders.

In the past, when I clashed with Buncheonhoeju in Japan, I fell into a trap set by my opponent and was trapped in a separate dimension, where I had to face the power of space collapse coming from all directions… ‘…Compared to

that time, I was much more It’s a better situation.’

Of course, there were many reasons for this, such as differences in prior preparations and locations, but the presence of his subordinates who were currently supporting him also played a significant role.

Because the undead were extreme in existence, their inherent weaknesses were clear, but on the contrary, they also had many strengths.

Since they were already dead, they had no fear of death, and of course they could move without getting tired and without any special nutrition.

Heart pounding—

the death spreading throughout the area pulsated and resonated with the undead fragments scattered on the floor.

Sssssssssssssssssssssssssss

!

Then, the debris that was already full of death began to gather together and take its original shape again.

The undead, who had originally been completely shattered to the point where they could not be revived, returned to their original appearance in an instant by replacing the missing parts with a previously prepared medium.

As if going back in time.

It was truly a secret art that could be performed only because he was the immortal king who ruled over death and because he was a member of the undead family who rejected death.

‘This method can only be used if some body part remains.’

Because of this, despite constantly reviving his subordinates throughout the battle, the number of them being completely destroyed was gradually increasing.

I tried to prevent complete disappearance by using the death of the abyss as much as possible, but…

“You’re as tough as a cockroach.”

The problem was that the other person was not an idiot either.

With that short word, a pillar of light tore through the sky behind and instantly struck the place where the lichs were gathered.

Kwaaaaang—!

A pillar of light that fell with a huge area, probably because it was a very elaborate attack.

It was obvious what would have happened to the undead who were unable to react and were swept away.

Acrich Kelifa, one of the high-ranking executives, was also included, but the disappointment was short-lived.

‘I was prepared to make sacrifices anyway.’

For now, achieving my goal comes first.

Hans quickly moved his energy while the opponent was concentrating on something else and blocked their movement for an instant.

[Koooooo——!]

[Kyaaaaa——!]

At the same time, two rays of black rays like revenge fell from the sky.

Kugugoogung—!

Death breath spouted from the mouths of Bone Dragon Entracio and Heratos.

The essence of destruction, dense with the immense energy of death, came together and swept through the Buncheonhoeju tied by Hans and struck the ground.

“…Tsk, so dirty.”

However, even large-scale attacks with enormous energy did not cause much damage to the opponent.

Paaang—

With the strong sound of the wind blowing, the dust that had been thick around the area was scattered in an instant.

It flapped its pure white wings that covered its body as if shaking off dust, driving away the black residue of death that had settled there.

As if this is nothing to him.

‘Is this really not enough?’

No matter how limited the power was, the compatibility advantage could not be easily ignored.

Regardless of whether it is the power of a foreign god, the opponent is also a user of divine power, so he will have to take some damage.

‘But now the attack isn’t just about destructive power.’

The enormous energy of death concentrated in the Death Breath.

In the aftermath, the surrounding area was already filled with black, sticky energy.

A more favorable battlefield was created for Hans.

“But it’s fascinating.”

As the fight that started again became more mature.

In an unavoidable situation, right after exchanging several blows to each other’s bodies, Beoncheonhoeju, who caused a landslide by exploding a mountain peak in the distance, asked a question in that bizarre voice.

“It seemed like you had prepared well since you first came here. How did you know I would come? Or did this happen to be your base?”

It was certainly surprising from his perspective.

Aside from breaking the seal of the abyss, he quietly infiltrated the surface without any sign or sign.

Perhaps that is also a know-how learned from traveling between different worlds.

However, in this Outerica, it was as if it had been discovered as soon as it entered the ground, so how could it not be suspicious?

‘Besides, it would have been rare to lead such an army of troops and greet them with such intention from the beginning.’

From what I was saying, it seemed like this was the first time something like this had happened.

Well… how can we expect that not only did the saint who was loved by the main god sense the intrusion, but all forces, regardless of camp, were preparing to welcome her.

[Phew—well? I found it by chance while I was out hunting. Pretty lucky, huh? Hehehe!]

Of course, I had no intention of answering that question.

Hans smiled sarcastically and spread his arms wide.

“…Tsk, okay. Well, it doesn’t really matter. “I’m now getting used to the restrictions of this world, so let’s finish this slowly.”

The guy must have been offended by that attitude, and the pressure emanating from his body began to rise even more.

Goooo—

Hans, it didn’t really matter, but his presence was quite a burden to the undead under his command who had been quite unreasonable.

About 1/3 of the troops had already been completely lost, unable to be revived, and most of the rest had been revived several times, putting a significant strain on them.

Even the Bone Dragon, Heratos, was so broken that it was difficult to move and was hastily reverse-summoned into his heart.

Considering that most of them were elite survivors of the Great War, they suffered greater damage than expected.

If any more losses occur, a red flag will be turned on for the survival of the ‘Army of the Immortals’—.

‘Let’s see. At this level…’

Immortal King Hans quietly assessed his opponent through the ‘Eye of the Abyss’.

The level of the thing was so high that I couldn’t get detailed information from this, but it was enough to check the general condition.

‘…Good, it’s definitely not normal. Energy recovery also decreases significantly. ‘I think I’ve accumulated quite a bit of fatigue.’

In fact, it was a natural result.

How much high-end power did they put into this guy, but is he still okay?

In addition, isn’t the damage Hans suffered in the process already greater than when he was pierced in the chest by Heinrich’s holy sword?

Of course, if we continued like this, we would eventually lose, but there was no need to do that anymore.

[You have a more impatient personality than I thought. How about we talk for a moment?]

“Ha! That’s not even funny. “Now?”

[Kkkkkkkkkk If you don’t like it, I won’t force you. Actually, I was holding on to a busy person for too long.]

It was a statement with a subtle meaning.

When I got that far, did I feel something strange?

The corners of Beoncheonhoeju’s eyes rose upward, as if he didn’t like something.

Whoosh—

And then, with a sudden strong wind, the undead and their remains scattered here and there turned into black smoke and were instantly sucked into Hans’ arms.

It was an emergency retrieval magic exclusively for the undead that only he could use, created out of necessity.

“Are you planning to run away again?”

[Running… Well?]

“I told you. “I’m going to finish my work on Earth right here. Do you think I’m going to miss it again?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a strange energy began to creep in and seal off the surrounding space.

It hasn’t been completed yet because of the energy of death everywhere, but if we don’t respond proactively, it’s only a matter of time before we get trapped inside.

In addition, as if they were aware of the previous ‘summon cancellation’, the degree of sealing was greater than I had imagined.

[Kkekekekeut—I think I misunderstood something.]

There was just one thing to correct.

This wasn’t a run away.

Okay, so…

I was just trying to make room for a moment since there was a backlog of customers waiting after

the “Individual Gathering” .

It was a warm consideration for busy modern people.
