Into the Creations 1056

Chapter 1056 – 1056. Divine Might

Monday, June 7th.

A week had passed in the blink of an eye.

During that time, I used space-movement scrolls to travel around the world. I visited every branch of the Light Source Church scattered across the globe and planted bombs.

‘The bombs from the Vampire Detective world. I couldn’t install many because I had to do it secretly… and their power probably decreased when I brought them to reality, but it should be enough to destroy buildings.’

As seen with the Light Source Church in Korea, their brainwashing ability is caused by special patterns or drawings.

‘It’s not just that. If they could brainwash so easily, they would be carrying pictures around everywhere or doing more open proselytizing.’

But the Light Source Church was slowly and secretly growing its power.

This meant that there was a limit to their brainwashing ability, and since the power of the Light Source Church leader was said to be related to the temple, I figured there must be some kind of power in the other Light Source Church buildings as well.

‘Even if that’s not the case, if I leave them be, some other guy might get brainwashed and rebuild the Light Source Church. Let’s finish them off for good.’

If I had my way, I’d wipe them all out myself.

But there are limits to that. I’m alone, and the Light Source Church is countless. More than anything, the Light Source Church doesn’t know much about me and Park Suho yet.

‘They’re watching me, but that’s about it. Park Suho should be the one to step forward. He’s the hero of Selbretina, after all.’

If I stepped forward and took the lead, that bastard Brahmason might try to target me openly.

‘I don’t care if he targets me, but my women… Han Harin, Han Ayoung, Jin Seyoung, Baek Jieun. I don’t have enough power to protect them all against Brahmason.’

So, I’ll put Park Suho forward.

‘But why hasn’t that bastard Park Suho contacted me after a whole week?’

I tried calling him, but he didn’t answer. That was proof that he was in the Tattoo World. I clicked my tongue and opened the Amusement Life app.

[Hunter Killer

A purple-flavored moon has risen.

Today is the day the hunter gets hunted.

You have become a monster in the world of ‘Clowns and Hunters.’ You feel endless hatred for the hunters who hunt monsters and freaks.

What you have to do is simple.

Hunt 1,000 hunters.

Quest Reward – 3,000 points, Hunter Killer’s Bone Harpoon.

※Multiple penalties exist.]

[Penalty 1. Inventory Use Restriction.]

[The inventory is limited to 3 slots.]

[The number of items you can bring into the Amusement World is also limited to 3.]

[10,000 points are required to alleviate the penalty.]

[Penalty 2. Freak]

[You will have the appearance and abilities of a freak.]

[You can start as a human instead of a freak by using 2,000 points.]

[Penalty 3. Hunter and Prey]

[Hunters can know your approximate location and think they must eliminate you as a top priority.]

[You can remove the penalty by using 5,000 points.]

[Penalty 4. Mana Cheat Out.]

[This is a world where mana does not exist.]

[You can remove the penalty by using 3,000 points.]

What I chose was the quest.

What I needed right now was points.

‘And this Hunter Killer’s Bone Harpoon. This is an ability I really need right now.’

[Hunter Killer’s Bone Harpoon

When thrown and hits an opponent, the opponent becomes unable to recover for 3 hours.

Price – 20,000

※Caution

It is disposable.

The durability is average. Accuracy is important.]

I thought of the leader from before my regression.

A monster that recovered no matter how many times you killed him. He was such a pain in the ass.

‘If I had this back then, things would have been different. If I have this in case things go wrong, it’ll be my trump card.’

I thought of the quest Amusement World, [Clowns and Hunters]. As far as I knew, [Clowns and Hunters] was a web novel. It was known for being an unpopular, traditional fantasy. It was moderately popular, but it got a lot of hate in the latter half and flopped. After that, there were rumors that the author changed their pen name.

‘It’s not a dangerous world. At least not compared to the God’s Atlantis or Baekhwan. Just because they’re freaks doesn’t mean they’re overly strong. The goal is one day. To finish the quest within 24 hours.’

[Clowns and Hunters]. The clown and hunter mentioned here are the same person. It was about a person who was originally a clown but awakened the talent of a hunter and did both jobs at the same time.

‘I’ll probably run into the main character. I hope it’s either the very beginning or the end.’

[The quest has been accepted.]

[The amusement begins.]

•••

I was in a forest.

I tried to move my body but felt a strange sensation. It was like… aside from the temperature and wind felt on my skin, I had developed other sensory organs.

‘That’s right. I’m a freak in this world.’

I checked my body. First of all, my body was made of hard skin. It felt similar to a stag beetle’s shell. The strength was definitely greater, though.

I had three fingers, but four arms. So, a total of 12 fingers. More than when I was human. That was a plus.

‘I don’t have wings. Instead… I have an antenna on my forehead like Piccolo.’

I touched the antenna. I could feel the surrounding space in detail. I was amazed. Within a 5-meter radius. I could even feel the bugs crawling on the ground in detail.

‘With this kind of spec, things will be easier.’

I felt something flying into my area. The moment I recognized it, my body reacted. My two right hands moved and snatched something flying in. It was three arrows. I glared in the direction the arrows came from. My vision magnified like a telescope, piercing through the darkness of the night sky and spotting a hunter 30 meters away.

‘Acceleration. Flash.’

I dashed forward in an instant and appeared in front of the hunter. Instead of being shocked, the hunter gritted his teeth and flicked his fingers at me. His fingers turned into sharp blades.

‘Should I take a hit first? I need to know how hard my armor is.’

His nails grazed my chest. A spark flew for a moment. A scratch appeared on my hard skin. That was it.

“This is crazy, why, why is a monster like this here…! Kkyaaaaak!”

I grabbed the hunter’s neck and snapped it. The hunter screamed with his neck broken. That was proof that he wasn’t an ordinary human.

The hunters in this world were modeled after the hunters in reality. They had awakened abilities. And there was a setting that hunters would lose themselves in their power or become freaks in a life-threatening situation.

‘If a hunter becomes a freak, they become stronger. So, the answer is to kill them as quickly as possible before they become freaks.’

[You have hunted 1 hunter. (1/1,000)]

Ignoring the window that popped up, I dashed in another direction to find more hunters.

I encountered a group of hunters in less than an hour. They were weaklings.

‘Thunder!’

Pzzzzzt.

Blue currents swept through the hunters’ bodies.

[You have hunted 3 hunters. (4/1,000)]

‘I guess because there’s no mana, I’m really worn out after using thunder once.’

It seemed best not to use thunder except in emergencies.

I kept moving and encountered hunters without much difficulty.

[You have hunted 1 hunter. (7/1,000)]

‘I keep running into them, but it’s annoying. Let’s use auto-progress.’

Auto-progress was good for times like this. But I soon had no choice but to distort my face.

That was because hunting through auto-progress wasn’t counted.

‘Can’t I cheat? Then I’ll have to kill them myself every time I meet a hunter.’

About two months had passed in the Amusement World’s time.

[You have hunted 13 hunters. (331/1,000)]

After killing about 300 hunters, it started to get a bit difficult. The weak hunters avoided me, and the hunters who were said to be strong started to gather.

I deliberately left one hunter alive.

“Where are you hunters gathered?”

“…You can even talk. So, your intelligence is high too.”

“Answer the question.”

“Kuhuhu. There’s only one reason we gather. When hunting a powerful monster. Wait. We will gather around you. Thunder Bug. We will kill you before you grow to the point where you can’t be dealt with.”

The hunter opened his mouth wide and shot teeth at me. It was a bizarre ability.

‘Flash.’

I dodged all the teeth and punched the hunter in the solar plexus. The hunter collapsed and died.

‘Thunder Bug? Is that the name they gave me? They’re so bad at naming.’

It was clear that the name was given because of my bug-like appearance and the fact that I occasionally used thunder.

‘Now that my name has spread, the hunters will gather on their own. I’ll just train.’

I wiggled my antenna and used thunder.

Just like I could feel the bugs crawling on the ground, I could clearly feel the form and sensation of the thunder.

‘This feeling… it feels like I’m going to get something, but I can’t quite grasp it.’

If I remember this feeling, it will definitely be helpful in reality.

•••

[You have hunted 94 hunters. (921/1,000)]

I attacked a hunter village and killed them all. I felt like I killed 500, but the number was only 94. The rest, except for the 94, were not hunters.

“P-Please save me…!”

A woman knelt on the floor and begged me.

She was a woman who was hiding at the very back of the village. She had blue hair and a slender body. She was quite a beauty. But I kicked the woman in the head and killed her.

The freaks in this world had no reproductive organs. I didn’t feel any sexual desire in my current state. That was unpleasant, but if I finished this quest quickly, I would return to normal.

Time passed like that.

[Current hunters hunted. 980.]

Only 20 left.

I got up from where I was hiding in the mud. The hunter who came yesterday was really strong. Strong enough to blow off two of my arms.

‘My arms have already recovered. This is the recovery power of a freak…!’

Except for the fact that I didn’t have a dick and that my senses were sometimes too heightened, making me uncomfortable, it was a body with outstanding specs.

“Thunder Bug. You were here. I will hunt you.”

A calm male voice was heard.

I turned my head towards the voice. There was a hunter with a clown’s face. He had a bow on his back and a sword at his waist. He had a ridiculous appearance, but that was the main character’s ability.

‘Judging by the fact that he’s hunting with a clown face, it’s at least the mid-point. Not bad.’

There was no need for words. I used Flash and leaped towards the clown. I extended four fists at the clown’s face at the same time.

The clown’s body blurred and appeared to my right. His sword grazed my waist. Green blood splattered. I didn’t care and reached out towards the clown.

‘If I just grab him, I win.’

I grabbed him.

That’s what I felt at that moment. Suddenly, the clown disappeared from my grasp. It was the clown’s ability. ‘Pleasant Lie,’ an ability that deceived the senses.

‘My mind is definitely working properly. Is it working because it’s deceiving the senses, not the mind? It feels disgusting to experience it firsthand.’

A steel arrow flew towards my back. It was too fast to dodge. Bang! It was too loud for the sound of an arrow hitting.

“Mikela! Are you okay?!”

A man with black hair appeared from behind. He was the clown, Mikela’s partner hunter.

“Zrun! I’m okay! More importantly, get out of the way!”

I tried to kill Zrun using Flash, but Zrun dodged my hand by a hair’s breadth.

“Kuh!”

Zrun ran away into the trees like a squirrel. I tried to chase after him, but I felt the six daggers that Mikela threw.

I swung my arm and knocked away the daggers. Two daggers pierced my arm. I calmly pulled out the daggers. When I put strength into my arm, the bleeding stopped. I glanced at Zrun. There was a scar on Zrun’s face.

“I see. So, it’s the very end.”

Well, I didn’t know anything about the very end of the original work.

“The very end? It’s just the beginning. We are one as two.”

The clown grinned confidently. His body blurred. An arrow flew from behind. Zrun’s ability was to maximize power. If I got hit by more than three of Zrun’s arrows, I wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

‘Let’s go all out.’

Pzzzt.

Thunder crackled from my body.

I hadn’t been doing nothing while killing 980 hunters.

At first, I used auto-progress, but I soon realized that it was a perfect environment for training and changed my course.

‘The feeling of making this space my own was quite helpful.’

Pzzzzzt.

About three months in terms of time.

During that time, I trained only one technique.

‘Flash Thunder.’

A bolt of lightning ran through my body.

Ironically, I could feel it better because there was no mana.

The lightning awakened every single cell in my body. I felt the expanding senses and rushed towards Mikela.

The surprised clown opened his mouth and performed tricks. I kept extending four fists, but Mikela kept dodging by a hair’s breadth.

‘The arrows flying from behind are too annoying.’

I changed my target. I decided to kill the archer who was interfering with me by shooting arrows at the right time.

“Zrun!! Run away!!”

Too late. Before Mikela’s voice disappeared, I had already arrived in front of Zrun. Unlike Mikela, Zrun was slow.

Zrun gritted his teeth and shot an arrow at my forehead.

“I’ll give you an arm.”

I blocked the arrow with my raised arm, and just as I was about to swing my other three arms at Zrun, my body stopped abruptly.

Chzzzzzz.

I smelled the scent of burning flesh from my body.

‘Damn it. Overload.’

A moment’s gap.

The main character didn’t miss that gap. Mikela, who had taken my back, sliced my body like he was butchering it.

[Death Resistance has been activated. You will not die for the next 15 seconds.]

“We killed the Thunder Bug!!!”

“Ha… we finally did it. With this, you have gained freedom.”

“Zrun. It’s thanks to you. If you hadn’t come with me, I….”

“Shut up. Don’t fuss over every little thing like this.”

[Using Full Recovery.]

I got up. The two of them stared at me with wide eyes.

“You won.”

They quickly took a battle stance.

“But you’re the ones who are going to die.”

I grabbed the Gay Slayer and swung it.

Gay Kill.

The black light sliced through Mikela and Zrun. Their upper and lower bodies separated and fell to the floor with a thud.

The reason why the web novel [Clowns and Hunters] was hated and the author changed their pen name was because they went on a huge BL drift in the latter half of the novel. It was clearly a main character growth novel until the middle, but it suddenly turned into a dick-sucking story.

‘I only saw the ending in the comments, so I know roughly… it’s a marriage ending, right?’

Marriage ending.

Not bad.

Except for the fact that it was a gay marriage.

Three days later. I completed the quest.
