Boundless Necromancer

215. Usurper (3)

「Achievement ‘Returner’ has been achieved.」

「The skill ‘Time Control Resistance (B+)’ is created.」

Thoughts are quickly connected in an instant.

usurper.

The newly born Godhead looked at me and immediately saw through my identity, saying that I was a ‘challenger from the tower’.

That fact came very close.

It was worth it.

If the usurper is a deity who knows me, then the situation is really at its worst.

‘…I thought I’d be able to eat the experience of fighting a godhead every day.’

Originally, I tried to weaken the deity to be born on the 18th floor stage through faith robbery.

The reason why I didn’t deal with the divinity right away was because I was aiming for this weakening.

A deity born without sufficient nourishment of faith would be extremely weak.

So I thought I could use that to build up the experience of killing a god without too much difficulty.

‘Was it a mistake?’

However, the usurper destroyed the world as soon as he was born and spoke of my identity.

Knowing that means that he could be a godhead from outside the 18th floor stage.

If this hypothesis is correct, it is highly probable that the power of the usurper has not weakened so much.

Looking around at the world that had returned before the collapse, I clicked my tongue and lamented.

“There are limits to eating raw.”

―…What kind of bullshit is that?

At that time, Damcheonwu suddenly spoke in a tone that he couldn’t understand.

―They boasted that they could deal with the godhead. I don’t know what the sudden introspection is.

“…”

-?

“…ha.”

―What is it? What is that pitiful face? What is the reason you see it that way!

“it’s nothing.”

Damcheonwu doesn’t seem to know that time was rewinded after the world was destroyed…

I didn’t have time, so I didn’t want to explain it.

I don’t think it will help that much.

Instead, I immediately looked up and looked at the gray orb in the sky.

The shell of the gray sphere was still slowly opening.

Thinking that I might be able to correct my mistake, I immediately activated my authority.

「The Authority ‘Steel Wings’ is activated.]

Churrarak…!

The steel wings unfolded in an instant, and as soon as he hit the ground, his body soared into the air.

Even that, at a speed that could close the distance to the gray sphere in the blink of an eye.

And at the same time, he activated a skill he hadn’t used for a long time.

「The skill ‘Focus on Combat’ is activated.」

「The user’s concentration increases tenfold.」

The flow of time slows down infinitely.

It was worth it.

The level of concentration raised by the combat concentration skill is incomparable to the previous one.

Even as his physical ability increased and his original concentration increased, his skill efficiency also increased like crazy.

「The mastery of the skill ‘Focus on Combat (A+)’ has reached 100%.」

「The grade of the skill ‘Focus on Combat (A+)’ has risen by one level.」

‘Nice.’

Once again, I was delighted with the increase in concentration caused by skill growth.

Now, with this, I can use all my skills with great care.

Satisfied with that, he activated his skills in succession.

「Authority ‘Blood Seeker’ is activated.」

「Skill ‘Blood Seeker’ is activated.]

Red steam-like energy surged from all over the body, and the Blood Seeker wrapped around the Blood Heaven Demon Sword and the Breaking Sword.

and.

「Activate True Blood Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Strengthen Blood (C+) >」

「Activate True Blood Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Strengthen Intention (B+) >…」

「 Activate the True Blood Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Divine Amplification (B+) >…」

Hwaaak!

Strengthening the blood, strengthening the will, and amplifying the divinity overlapped over and over again, so the body was full of strength.

Even the normal skills were used as soon as they were used, and now the elation became unbearably strong.

But it’s still not over.

「Authority ‘Geomki Seonggang 劍气成罡’ is strongly activated.」

Geomgang (劍罡).

The skill that touched the extreme of martial arts learned through the decisive battle with the Heavenly Demon shines and is engraved on the twin swords.

「The skill ‘Pacheon破天’ is activated.」

「The limit on what can be broken is removed.」

In addition, through the Pacheon skill, as if assisting the sword, the power of chaos flowed like a wave through the sword body.

Apotheosis was optimized for short-term battles, so I didn’t use it right away

.

Now that most of the tiles in hand have been removed, it is time to use the appropriate technique for this situation. 「The exclusive effect of the Power Skill skill

, Soul Source Demonic Sword, ‘

Double

‘ is activated.」

It was a skill I hadn’t used much since I learned it from Baekhak Geomseon.

It was worth it.

This White Sword Guanchun’s herbivore is a martial art optimized for defense penetration.

However, there would be no skill as good as this to pierce the source of divinity like the gray orb.

Without hesitation, I flew away without hesitation, holding my twin swords against the gray orb, stabbing it down as if stabbing it.

Quadd deed—!

And at the same time, the mana in his body drained out to an absurd extent.

Most of them were consumed by the power of forceful alteration of the law of swordsmanship and the forceful destruction effect of the Pacheon skill.

Even so, there was not a scratch on the gray sphere…

Even if it was in a state without using apotheosis, it was absurd now.

“Kuh…!”

Daldaldaldal….

The hands holding the twin swords trembled because they couldn’t properly transmit power to the gray sphere.

It’s been a while.

Even if you draw all your strength, you can’t break through the defense.

It was a sense of helplessness that reminded me of the situation before gaining the godhood.

But I had no intention of giving up.

‘If the god of usurpation comes out and uses divinity < Destruction > again, then it will really be the worst situation.’

Many people on this planet were worshiping me, and thanks to that, my divine power was greatly enhanced.

Thanks to the advantage of worship, I was able to think about fighting a battle with a godhead.

However, if the planet collapses, you have to go into battle losing all the benefits of divine enhancement.

I couldn’t leave it like that.

「The authority skill ‘Quick Magical Charge’ is strongly activated.」

Rapid Magical Charge.

As he climbed the tower, the power sponsored by one of the managers was activated, and his mana rose like a waterfall.

Although he was reluctant to use it due to a defect that damaged the magic circuit itself…

he was not in a position to cover cold or hot meals.

He raised the power of rapid magic recharge as much as possible to cover the amount of mana consumed by sword and impeachment skills.

and.

Aaaaaaaang!

Due to the change in the law of the sword and the forced destruction of Pacheon, the shield of the gray sphere was pierced.

It’s also very miserable.

「Achievement ‘Destroy Divine Source’」

「Magic power increased by 10」

「Achievement ‘Magical Power of the Great Ocean’ achieved」

「Magic power increased by 5」

「Achievement ‘Magical Gluttony’ achieved. 」

「Magic power increases by 1.」

“…The reward is fine at least.”

Thanks to the increase in magic ability by +16, I felt that my strength had returned.

Should it be an unexpected reward?

I didn’t know that such a good achievement could be achieved just by breaking the defense of the source of godhood.

There was even growth of items.

「Breaking Heaven Sword destroys things that are difficult to break, and the grade increases to S-class (25000/25000)

」 .”

The breaking sword, which had raised its level before entering the giant tree labyrinth, had grown at once.

The previous level of the breaking sword was less than 10,000, so it could be said to be a tremendous growth.

But there was no time to feel pleasure.

self.

Because the destroyed part of the gray sphere was about to be restored.

In response, I fell into the open space of the gray sphere right before the restoration was completed.

「I have entered the sacred realm < Usnurture >.」

And

… ]

It was then.

[Should I say nice to meet you? ]

A pretty young man with light blue hair was sitting on an old chair looking at me.

“The god of usurpation smiles at you.”

He looked at me and gave me a flawless smile.

[ A dirty hound selected by the top. ]

…That’s the purest smile.

***

Divine Realm < Usurpation > was quite messy.

Big and small mechanical parts floating around in the air.

Books with different outward appearances were spread out randomly and kept their seats.

It was foreign to the realm of God.

[Isn’t that a pretty sight for guests to see? ]

At that time, the usurper sat on the chair and said with a smile.

[I can’t help it. I usually collect whatever I want. So the room is always messy. ]

He kept repeating the things he wasn’t even curious about.

[Still, these are all my pride. The one that brought numerous superpowers and destroyed countless machines. Those symbols are these. ]

“….”

[ Isn’t it cool? These books are abilities received from people with abilities, and machine parts are symbols of the result of usurping civilizations in the world. ]

“I’m not interested.”

[ this. That’s a fair word. ]

I refused useless conversation.

I didn’t even want to know what the books and mechanical parts in the divine realm < Usnurture > symbolize.

Instead, I narrowed my eyes and asked him.

That’s the question I’ve been most curious about so far.

“Do you know about me?”

[To some extent. That he came from a place called a tower, and that he was an existence capable of killing a godhead. And that your purpose is to kill me. ]

“….”

[Oh, and what I learned more about is that you have the power to turn back time? ]

“As expected, I remembered the time before the return.”

I clicked my tongue at that.

The usurper was the one who obtained the godhood.

In fact, I expected that even if time went back, I would be aware of this to some extent.

But when I checked it myself, I didn’t feel very good.

One of the benefits of time regression is gone.

Still, I found out something.

‘Even though I can remember the time before the regression, I can’t seem to stop the regression at all.’

It is still the same that this death return is a usable ability.

The real value of this ability is to turn back the time of the world.

Not being able to remember the world before returning was just an added benefit.

As I was thinking that, the words of the usurper flowed into my ears.

[ surprised. I wish I could turn back time I’ve seen things like time slowdown, but this was the first time. ]

He made an exaggerated gesture as if he was surprised, but there was no emotion in his eyes.

It was so foreign that I squinted my eyes.

It’s because I felt like I was looking at an inanimate object with no emotions.

But instead of immediately revealing my displeasure, I decided to season it a little more.

“If you knew about the tower, you would have seen it quite often.”

and.

[ oh. Is it common to see things like that in the tower? I envy you. You must have lived in a fun place. ]

「The skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ sees through that there is no lie in the opponent’s words.]

After confirming that the words were true with the Fire Dragon’s Eye, I smiled dumbfounded.

“You don’t know much about the tower, do you?”

He’s definitely an alien guy.

TOP doesn’t know much, but how much do you know about me?

It was as if the chicken knew about it, but did not know the existence of eggs or chicks at all.

As I became wary of the incongruity of such information, the usurper continued.

[ yes. I’ve never been out of this world So I don’t know much about you either. ]

「The skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ sees through that there is no lie in the opponent’s words.」

I thought while keeping my mouth shut.

Saying that I have never escaped from the world of this 18th floor stage was a suggestion of another possibility.

Perhaps this 18th floor stage is not a world reproduced by the tower, but a real world.

I was simply transported to that world by the tower.

So, the god of usurpation must have true power, not the power reproduced by the tower.

‘Did they say that the fact that they were not significantly weakened even after stealing their faith was real, not fake?’

Thinking about it made me feel as if the puzzle had been put together to some degree.

Of course, there is still a piece of the puzzle that has not been put together, ‘then how do you know about the tower and me’…

but even that was soon solved.

[I just received a little tip about you and the tower from someone in a high place. ]

That’s what he should be…

[They say he’s the god of despair, fall, and madness… Do you know? ]

The name that came out of the usurper’s mouth was something I knew.

***

God of despair, fall and madness…

To be honest, when I first heard the name, my head was confused.

I couldn’t understand why that name came from the final boss on the 18th floor stage.

However, the questions have been resolved.

“…”

The world on this 18th floor stage is a real place.

The god of usurpation heard information from the god of despair, fall, and madness.

Thinking about it, I no longer questioned it.

no.

Far from doubting it, I was now convinced.

That the god of despair, fall, and madness still has enmity against me, and if I don’t grow strong enough while climbing the tower, I’ll be killed by him.

I realized that fact as if it was engraved in my brain.

It seemed that the opponent was also similar.

[Looking at the reaction, it seems that you know about the monster. ]

And at that moment, something like a strange desire arose in the eyes of the usurper.

It was different from the skin-like behaviors that had been shown without emotion and exaggerated gestures until now.

And the emotion in his eyes was one I knew well.

It was worth it.

[It’s been a while since I started to feel excited. ]

Greed is one of the driving forces that have led me to this position.

[I feel like I found an expansion pack for a retro game at a junkyard. ]

Sssss!

Divinity dripped thickly from the usurper’s body, and soon his eyes began to glow red.

The flow in the air in the divine realm < Usurpation > was wildly changed by the deepest greed.

[That monstrous god said. You have the potential to obliterate all gods. So that means I have to deal with you. ]

said the usurper, shaking his light blue hair.

[Even that monster says it has to deal with you, so the potential of your power must be enormous. ]

On the body of the usurper who said that, lights with hundreds of colors were expressed as if they were mixed.

All the abilities that had been stolen through the power of usurpation were activated.

[And if I can kill you and have your power, I will be able to surpass that monstrous god. ]

He continued, extending his dirty hand down.

[Really…! I want to get your power quickly, my heart is burning…! ]

Coo-goo-goo—!

I twisted my mouth at the movement of truly overwhelming force.

“okay?”

Now that we’ve figured out what we want to know about each other, I think they’re trying to kill me…

“It’s a coincidence.”

It wasn’t that different for me either. 「The divine authority

‘ deification’ is activated.」

「It becomes possible to exercise the divine authority according to the potential divinity

.」

.!

[I had the same thoughts as you. ]

Before I knew it, I continued to speak with a brilliant golden divinity wrapped around my body.

[God of usurpation. ]

And with a very deep smile.

[How many divinities do you have? ]

Really….

[The more things you can have, the better it would be.]

It’s been a while since I had high expectations.
