My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness - Chapter 332

〈 Cheonma (3) 〉

Roselia Grand Temple, a sacred site in the center of Outerica.

“It’s divine power.”

Saint Heinrich, who was slowly walking through a garden filled with all kinds of flowering plants, gently closed his eyes.

I went for a walk to cool off my head during work, but my mind became complicated because I was faced with a more troublesome problem.

‘That is clearly the divine power of Buncheonhoeju.’

Even in his opinion as the best expert in this field, there was no doubt about it.

However, the problem was that the divine power did not originate from the Kang Hwan world.

In other words, it is said to be energy flowing in from outside…

‘But the Heavenly Demon is using that power.’

Moreover, it wasn’t a trick like Hugo used “Avatar Cloud” and star symbols as mediums.

Just as a priest draws upon and uses the divine power of the idol he follows, a miracle manifested by himself in name and reality.

It was said that there was a connection between Buncheonhoeju and Cheonma that exceeded his expectations.

‘No matter what, the sacred power of another dimension is no different from a foreign substance in that world. Therefore, Hugo had to endure significant energy loss even when using divine power indirectly.’

Heinrich quietly looked down at his hands.

According to his will, the platinum-colored brilliance that rose like a haze fluttered dizzyingly, showing off its presence.

There were more gods in the world than the number of dimensions that existed, and the tendencies of those gods were just as different.

The divine power that comes from them also follows that tendency.

‘In that sense, our Lord of Outerica can definitely be said to be a good god.’

Of course, the basis may not be the compassion and mercy commonly spoken of.

If we were to put that into human perspective—.

Putting your handmade products in a storage box, appreciating them with pleasure, and occasionally dusting them off and taking care of them with care… Is this the feeling?

On the other hand, if you are the type of person who enjoys destroying the sand castle you made yourself, and you are the type of person who builds a tower with the goal of destroying it from the beginning, you will be called an evil god by the creatures.

‘Well, how can I, a mere human, guess the will of the gods?’

No matter how much he was called a saint and received various privileges, it was unreasonable.

It would be arrogance… or even blasphemy, to think that this is possible.

“Anyway, I can’t just sit still when his traces are revealed.”

I had planned to actively intervene from the beginning, but this incident made my thoughts even more determined.

It was to a certain degree that I wanted to go directly to the Kang Hwan Realm and participate in defeating the Heavenly Demon.

Of course, it will be difficult for Heinrich right now since he has to take care of both Outerica and Earth.

“Saint, do you have a moment?”

At that time, as he was walking in the garden, a small woman approached him and spoke to him.

It was Isea, an archmage from Earth, a fellow member of the warrior party who had gone through many battles together.

“Ah, Isea. Of course it’s okay. “I just happened to have some free time, so I was just killing time.”

“Thank you so much. “I… I’m a little sorry to ask you this, but…”

After a brief pause, she carefully held out a thick letter.

Of course, it was not a love letter containing feelings for him.

“Oh, I guess you’ve decided.”

“…Yes, I guess it’s a good opportunity for me. I’m embarrassed, but I decided to ask for a favor. Please take care of me, saint.”

It was a letter to her family on Earth.

Asking Heinrich, who can travel between Earth and Outerica, to deliver the letter.

It was extremely embarrassing to ask such a great person, a saint, but this was something he suggested in order to solidify his cooperative relationship with her.

“Don’t worry. I will convey this information privately so as not to say anything unnecessary. “I have now become accustomed to Earth’s environment.”

“Whoa, thank you. Thanks to you, I am glad that I was able to deliver the news to you first. “Everyone must have been worried a lot during this time.”

My daughter, who is only a high school student, is suddenly taken to another world and has not been heard from for nearly a year. Naturally, her family feels like their blood is drying up day by day.

Since we can’t go back right now for various reasons, both sides will have less worries if we can say hello.

Also, it would not be difficult to prove that it was not just a letter, but a type of magical tool containing her video.

After putting the letter he received into the subspace, Heinrich parted ways with her after a short chat and walked back to his office.

As the final advance to the north was approaching, there were so many things to worry about that I couldn’t just relax.

Of course, if a really necessary problem arises, he will always kick out such chores.

‘It’s still okay. You just have to do what you can, step by step. First, after getting a clearer picture of Kang Hwan-gye’s situation…’

His steps toward the office stopped for an instant.

Beyond his field of vision from a slightly higher ground, he could see at a glance the scars of the battle that had not yet disappeared.

Traces of everyone fighting together against an alien invader that happened not long ago.

‘I don’t know what you’re planning by reaching into other dimensions.’

Heinrich quietly closed his eyes and held his hands together to commemorate the victims of that day.

In a godly atmosphere, the brilliant platinum glow that flowed from his body slowly began to spread in all directions.

‘I will completely destroy it. Everything you planned.’

For that purpose, we will use everything available.

And what happened on Earth was no exception.

‘I guess I’ll have to make contact with Pantheon soon. There is no way they all fell for the Buncheonhoe. After contacting them…’

Of course, the work of making Beoncheonhoe a public figure in the world and bringing it to the forefront was still progressing smoothly.

***

Kuung—

The footsteps of a ruler who crushes everyone within his sphere of influence.

The heavy air weighed down the son-in-law along with the one step that struck the world.

“Wow! “It’s heavy…!”

“Step back! “If you mess around, you’ll get caught up!”

Rumbling!

In the indirect aftermath, those fighting nearby hurriedly retreated, and several buildings, which had been traumatized by the intense fighting, collapsed.

The overbearing force that forced obedience was enough to impress the difference in class among the opponents who dared to go against his will, but…

“Kahaha! “There’s no way with something lukewarm like this!”

In fact, it had little effect on the target on which most of the pressure was concentrated.

Because the opponent was a monster that could tear apart all restrictions that hinder movement with just the specs of the body.

The beast full of madness was attacked by the devil of the sky, who was trampling the earth while standing in the sky.

Kwaaaang—!

Immediately after, a huge explosion exploded in the sky once again, causing shock waves to sweep everywhere and shake things on the ground.

“…They fight noisily.”

And below that.

Standing far away from the battle taking place in the heavenly world, former Gwangma Mokin-gwang stuck out his tongue and grumbled softly.

‘I knew he was a great guy.’

Who would have thought that not only would it be enough to rush at the famous Heavenly Demon of the Demonic Cult, but they would even confront it head on.

Looking back now, I was able to clearly realize how reckless I had been to go to an opponent like that and start a fight.

‘In the first place, that’s how I’ve lived until now.’

After savoring his appetite, he shook his head.

Anyway, in conclusion, the results were not that bad.

Thanks to that, he was able to overcome the madness that had dominated his life all his life and take the lead in completing Gwangjesimgyeol (狂制心訣).

…Although he suffered the humiliation of having his star title taken away.

Mo In-gwang, who was trying hard to suppress painful memories, finally rationalized himself and turned his gaze elsewhere.

Apart from the battle in the heavenly world, a fierce war was taking place below between humans.

“Huh, now let me join in.”

As I looked at the battlefield filled with screams and blood, my blood began to boil slowly.

On the way here, I received a few more treatments from Harley, and the madness that dominated my thoughts has subsided a lot, but that doesn’t mean the way I’ve lived my whole life will change so easily, right?

‘Actually, I don’t feel like helping political faction bastards.’

However, the demonic cult’s followers were disliked more than the political faction, so the resistance was not severe.

Also, the crazy guy who was now his boss seemed to be supporting the political faction for some reason.

“It is indeed a magic school. “The plate was completely tilted.”

What on earth did they do? It was fatal that the military personnel of the political faction were unable to use their power properly.

If things continue like this, it will most likely result in everyone inside the Shaolin Temple being massacred.

‘Of course, if I hadn’t been there.’

A cruel smile appeared on Mo In-gwang’s face.

Although he was not as strong as the transcendental person who reached the level of enlightenment, he was also strong enough to be confident that he had no rival among those who reached the level of enlightenment.

No matter what tricks the Demon Cultist pulls, his intervention alone is bound to bring about significant changes in the war situation.

‘Then now… huh?’

The moment when heat slowly spread to my head with such elation.

He unconsciously glanced at the battle in the heavenly world and paused for a moment.

“No, wait. “What about that?”

Afterwards, my mind became cold as if I had been doused with cold water.

And he couldn’t bear to speak and just opened his mouth.

It had to be that way.

“…That bastard?”

Harley, who until a little while ago had shown movements that prioritized instinct and wildness, was now showing more systematic and refined movements.

And for some reason, it uses very familiar techniques.

…Yes, the foundation was definitely his German martial arts based on Gwangje Simgyeol.

‘For some reason, he kept asking me to spar with him while I was here!’

At that time, I was suspicious that he was trying to take out his anger by beating him up under the pretext of controlling

his madness… Who would have imagined that it was all just a blueprint prepared to steal his martial arts skills?

“How much do you plan on stealing?”

At this, Mokin-gwang burst out in anger rising from deep within.

He was filled with resentment at the unbearable reality that he had been robbed of his martial arts title in addition to the title of Gwangma.

***

‘My ears are itching.’

A thought like that briefly passed through Harley’s mind, but it quickly disappeared before long.

There was absolutely no way I could focus on anything else right now.

Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Following his intuition, he lowered his head and a pitch-black sword light passed over his head.

At the same time, a long section of space is torn apart.

Some attacks were attacks that even he who used his body to fight could not easily ignore.

“You’re so good at avoiding it, you barbarian.”

“Kahat! Is this exciting? “Try a little harder, bro!”

Although she reflexively tried to provoke him, the current situation was actually not very favorable to Harley.

The Heavenly Demon, which had brought out its hidden divine power, was showing off a completely different majesty than before.

Rather than simply strengthening oneself with additional energy, it feels as if the level itself has risen one level.

Of course, not only was it superior to before in all aspects, but the frequency with which Harley was allowed to attack was bound to increase one by one.

“…is this also recovering? This is ridiculous. “What happened to this body?”

At least during the fight in Outerica, it would have been really dangerous if he had not eaten the wings of the Buncheonhoeju and developed resistance to it.

His strength, imbued with divine power, was so vicious that it cut through not only space, but even Harley’s concept of resistance.

In other words,

Harley moved her forearm, which was almost severed and loosely attached, back and forth to check the state of the joint.

The situation was similar not only there but also other body parts that allowed attack.

At this point, he couldn’t just hide his abilities.

The imprints on the body began to glow all at once, and purified energy swirled around the body, activating latent abilities.

Among them were physical mutations that most people tried not to show.

“Yeah, I thought so. “After all, you weren’t human.”

The Cheonma, who saw the dark red scales covered from the fingertips to the elbows of both hands in response to the attack, nodded slowly as if he had expected it.

As if he had already guessed it well enough.

Rather, this was a surprisingly calm response.

‘As expected, he knew something.’

There was a question I felt while using the techniques I learned from former Gwangma Mok In-kwang.

This martial art called ‘Gwangjesimgyeol’, which uses madness directly, matches Harley strangely well.

To be honest, if we were to consider only martial arts compatibility, Harley, who had only learned it for a few days, was a much better match than Mokin-gwang.

It is surprising that there is already a martial arts in this world that is perfect for the “ultimate evolved life form” whose conditions are completely different from those of ordinary humans.

In the process of becoming familiar with martial arts at such a rapid pace, I was able to naturally realize it.

‘This martial arts.’

This was not created from the beginning with the premise of being used by humans.

This martial art called Gwangjesimgyeol was created from the design stage for the purpose of being used by such monsters… or rather, non-humans.

Yes, for example.

A different race that has now disappeared from the Kangwhan world… a youkai or something.
