Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 453
Episode 453
“Get out of the way! I have to go!”
Harmon continues to scream.
I don’t know how those who stopped him felt, but in Logan’s eyes, I could see that he was desperately trying not to kill people even when he was half-conscious.
‘Even in that situation…’
I once again admired his personality.
Of course, I couldn’t just watch like that.
[The holy relic!]
[Destroy it!]
[King Logan!]
A spirit wave containing different content from the voice that burst from the mouth of the divine sword. The cries of the soul scattered everywhere were being conveyed earnestly in Logan’s mind.
Moreover, in his eyes, he could vividly see the sight of gigantic souls of indescribable magnitude weighing down Harman’s soul.
One from the richentia hanging around his neck and one from a fist-sized gold coin held in his left hand and used like a shield.
‘Instead of 9.’
The moment I recognized it, my eye twitched.
When I first heard about soul encroachment from Harmon, it wasn’t at a level where I could perceive it so vividly.
But it was different now. As I fully understood the situation Harmon was in, I got goosebumps all over my body.
The sight of monsters devouring human souls was more disgusting than I expected.
Then, the moment Harman was unable to resist and was eaten…
– God ordered me to kill you. He said he would be the incarnation of Gibrik Kassel.
As he said, the Apostle will come again. With the body of the strongest paladin who stood right in front of the Aura Master’s wall.
‘Did you say that the god who stole Ilia’s body gave him power equivalent to that of a great mage?’
So, just how much power will the apostle who invades Harman’s body exert?
I didn’t even want to imagine it.
Fortunately, the moment my thoughts reached that point, the paladins began to retreat.
“Open the way!”
“Chase team…”
A sight that clearly shows how Harmon has been being chased.
When an enemy flees in a straight line with almost no sense of reason, a chase team is assigned, including those who appear to be of the highest rank.
This may mean that the temple attaches great importance to this matter, but…
‘I’ll stop here.’
Quaaaaaaaaa!
Doo doo doo doo.
Harmon advances into the forest, destroying all the trees blocking the front.
“Chase!”
The reaper fell on the heads of the knights who followed carefully but quickly.
Skag.
The moment the red light flashed, the heads of the two people who followed closely behind Harmon fell to the floor.
Uddangtangtang.
The bodies of the Paladins were rolling around at the same speed they were running.
“Aaaah!”
A scream came from the person who quickly turned around and escaped instant death. Although he barely survived, the area from his right shoulder to the solar plexus was deeply cracked.
It was a fatal wound that wouldn’t be surprising if he died at any time, but the attacker clicked his tongue as if he didn’t like it.
‘As expected, they forced their status down.’
I made a mistake.
“Raider!”
“Oh Auror!”
Logan’s body moved faster as he watched the knights screaming one after another, starting with one person screaming.
“superman…!”
Ugh.
The knight who stands in the way is torn apart with his shield and armor.
“He’s a superhuman!”
Skag.
The knight who retreated caught up with him at overwhelming speed and ripped off his head.
When the five Paladins, who were called the chase team, died and fell so quickly, Stephen Royer immediately rushed towards Logan.
Of the three vice-captains, he seems to be in good condition.
“It’s a temple event! Anyone who interferes with this will be a public servant to the continent!”
And in the meantime, he is someone who knows well the weapons he can use.
but.
“Reveal your identity…!”
Wow!
“Oops!”
There was no mercy in the red aura that came out like a thunderbolt from Logan’s sword.
‘I feel like I want to take my breath away.’
If you kill the vice-captain of the Temple Knights, a renowned knight of the Holy Spirit, there is a risk that a much larger number of temple troops will follow you than you do now.
So Logan was content with just throwing him out of the forest.
And then, looking at the paladins who belatedly followed behind him, he raised his featureless iron sword and sprayed it with a disaster-like red brilliance.
Wow!
“Wow!”
“Avoid blood!”
A wave of red aura that destroys the entire path through which the Holy Knights charge.
Rumble.
The thick dust rose up and obscured the Paladins’ vision.
By the time the blurry world became clear again, there was no one left in front of them.
Grumbling.
“Arrange and chase! The target moves in a straight line anyway!”
Stefan, who had coughed up a handful of blood, fell down and screamed, and the Holy Knights began to quickly organize their camp again.
‘What kind of guy is this?’
Stephen’s face was distorted.
He quickly came to his senses and began to search for the identity of someone similar to the attacker in his memories. The red force was truly ordinary, but there were not many Auror users known to the world.
Of course, he had no way of knowing that the probability of finding the correct answer through inference based on red aura converges to 0.
* * *
“I….”
“…I have to go.”
Rumbling.
Although it is slightly reduced compared to the battle, the sacred aura is still sprayed with great force.
The auror was laying waste to the speeding Harman.
Logan quietly followed behind him.
Hours of chasing him at a distance that wouldn’t catch Harmon’s senses.
During that time, Logan was examining Harmon’s soul, to be exact.
Even at his maximum speed, it would take about half a day to reach the milestone he saw on the way, or the other Holy Knights’ garrison.
If Harman was running in such an ignorant way, it would take at least one more day.
I thought it would be better to act after understanding Harman’s condition to some extent, as if I touched it hastily, there might be a problem around the Holy Knights.
However, as time passed, Logan’s face could not help but harden.
‘weird.’
[The holy relic!]
[Destroy it!]
[King Logan!]
The cry that was being delivered only to his soul was still going on in real time.
And every time, Harman’s soul, which seemed as if it would be eaten by the souls of the two gods at any moment, was seen to recoil slightly.
In other words, that cry seemed to be a means to find himself and at the same time a way to protect his own soul.
‘Protect yourself by focusing your consciousness on one goal. Yes, it is quite possible. But…’
The question was not completely resolved.
Why can’t the gods take control of the soul of Harman, who is just a human?
At first glance, they are monsters that even I can’t handle.
‘Come to think of it, Lord Harman said that when he first felt the encroachment on his soul, it wasn’t that difficult to shake it off. He also said that if he hadn’t accepted it himself, it wouldn’t have been encroached in the first place.’
The situation was even more incomprehensible considering that even he could cut off a person’s soul with the power of the Soul Blade.
Is it because Harmon’s spirit is that strong?
‘No, that can’t be possible.’
In other words, seeing the soul means seeing the person.
In that sense, Harman’s soul was sufficiently qualified to reach the level of an Auror Master, but there was such a huge difference from the gods that comparison itself was meaningless.
The more I see it with my own eyes, the more I feel the difference.
But why?
Because handling the power of the soul and having the soul eroded are two different things?
The questions about him eventually led to fundamental questions about the current status of Harmon and Ilya in the past.
‘Is it really necessary for the gods to encroach on other people’s souls?’
Wouldn’t it be okay to just kill the soul and steal the body?
It’s a bit of a radical method, but it would be much more efficient for gods, right?
why?
Contrary to his original intention, the time Logan spent watching Harmon became longer and longer.
The souls of the gods and the souls of Harman.
We began to analyze in detail the relationship between the soul trying to encroach and the soul being encroached upon.
Of course, this was possible because there was a belief that Harmon would not fall easily.
How much more time has passed like that?
“I have to go.”
Couuuuuung.
Logan’s red eyes, who were following Harmon with a blank stare like a ghost, flashed for a moment.
I didn’t find the answer to the question. Rather, it was because I witnessed an amazing scene that I had never imagined.
‘her?!’
The souls of the gods, to be exact, a very slight portion of the power of the souls, were using Harman’s Force to add strength to their bodies.
An energy transition so small that you would never have noticed it if you hadn’t been observing it for several hours.
But it was truly a shocking scene. Rather than simply adding strength to the body with force, it was literally supplying alternative ‘nutrients’.
‘Is that possible?’
Let alone the Force, even if it was the power of the soul that he gained by becoming an Auror Master, he could not move his body with that alone.
Whether it’s the force or the power of the soul, it is only an amplification of human potential and not intended to provide energy for life to survive.
Of course, it was naturally possible to extremely increase the efficiency.
At Logan’s level now, it was possible to move by controlling the flow of muscle, nerve, and blood using force alone, instead of consuming the body’s nutrients.
If I was determined and didn’t want to use ‘energy’, I could move like that for about a month. This is under the premise that there are no situations where extreme force consumption occurs, such as combat or training.
Of course, it was also consumed as a replacement and did not generate fundamental energy.
In the first place, force is a secondary energy based on the power of life. To be supplied with fundamental life energy, we have no choice but to follow the laws of nature.
But now, that common sense was being shattered before my eyes.
‘Well, I don’t think Sir Harman would have taken food or water in that condition. And I must have been chased for at least a month.’
As we saw earlier, we continue to fight countless times and destroy everything that stands in our way like we are doing now.
‘I’ve been chased intensely for a month and I’m still in that state without eating or resting?’
In reality, Harmon’s strength was gradually decreasing, but considering what he had done, even that was miraculous.
Logan tried to further increase the power of the soul and observe the amazing process of transformation. Because the process itself was already about escaping the limitations of human life.
‘The Force can replace eating…?’
Can the force derived from the power of life create the power of life?
It was a complete contradiction that could not even be explained by the word ‘jugaekjeondo’.
But the evidence was visible before my eyes.
‘It’s possible.’
Logan’s eyes gradually became more intense. He realized that understanding the process was the quickest shortcut to the level of a god or god.
Then, the moment when you finally ‘understand’ part of the secret.
“…Nonsense!”
An exclamation came out of Logan’s mouth.
At the same time, a golden force like a burning flame began to spread from his entire body. The contradiction in energy shown by the souls of the gods gave a clearer clue than ever to overcoming the wall.
but.
The voice that suddenly burst out stopped Harman from running.
“I have to go…?”
Harmon looks back with blank eyes.
The moment those blue eyes looked directly into Logan’s red eyes.
Harman’s sword suddenly pointed at him.
[King Logan!]
[The incarnation of Zibrick?]
[Before our eyes…!]
At the same time, the three spirit waves began to become entangled, pulling Logan’s soul, which had been trying to be endlessly elevated, back to its original place.
