Chapter 298 – SSUR+ Lasshu! Disaster Imminent?!
“Huh!”
I suddenly came to my senses.
I quickly looked down at my body.
I swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.
What, you’re fine?
‘Huh?’
I had a mental breakdown for a moment.
I wondered if I was dreaming.
Or maybe I was caught in a world I didn’t know about or an illusion.
It definitely felt like I was falling apart from head to toe.
It felt so real that I thought it would just go on like this.
Rather, I felt at peace now.
Should I say that it feels refreshing after climbing a really difficult mountain?
‘It feels like I just came out of a sauna and sweated for an hour.’
I felt good, and my body felt light.
Before, no matter what I did, I felt frustrated and no matter what effort I put in, it felt like it was all a waste. What has really changed?
I looked at the altar.
The sacred relics I offered had disappeared without a trace.
It was unfortunate.
These are things that I really used like my alter ego. Still, it would be nice if something could be improved by doing this.
“Have you come to your senses?”
Yuren has approached.
As always, he looked down at me with an emotionless face.
“Congratulations. You have now become a true transcendent.”
“Really?”
“And do not be disappointed by the missing relics. “Those sacred things are engraved on your body and soul.”
“Eh? What does it mean?”
Didn’t the holy relic just disappear?
Wasn’t it offered as a sacrifice?
While I was sleeping, I sighed when I heard the sound of bangchang.
Yuren smiles slightly.
This guy even knows how to laugh.
“The power of the holy object is within you now. As a test, pretend to swing a sword.”
“Suddenly? Ha.”
I did it right away.
Pretend to hold a sword and swing it.
Chi-ching! Phew!
Then, suddenly, dawn appeared in my hand and split the air.
“Uh… ?”
“Next, I will use my temporal ability towards the altar. Try it.”
This time, Yuren gave me instructions.
Like a person who helps a sports athlete rehabilitate.
I stretched out my hand toward the altar.
Whoop, tick, tick! Crash!
Moss began to cover the neat altar again.
The sight of it being covered in real time was somewhat scary.
I was surprised and took a step back.
“What, really? I am the holy relic, and the holy relic has become me!”
No, can it be like this?
The power of the holy object dwells in me.
It felt like the gears that had been turning awkwardly were turning properly.
“I know I’m lucky. Although it is not as big as the Demon King’s Gun or the Heavenly Stone, you have a sacred relic that is part of the treasures we made.”
She asked Yuren with admiration.
“Did you make the holy relics as well?”
“To be exact, it was made by Cherokee.”
“Who is Cherokee again?”
I thought that more unknown things would appear like this.
Yuren moved his eyebrows as if he was amused by my question.
“He is the person you call Grant. “You haven’t forgotten, right?”
How could I forget? That damn guy.
Exclamations came out one after another.
It seems like there’s really nothing Elphe can’t do.
She scratched her head and looked around.
Everything seemed new.
“And… Do you and this place look new? “Everything.”
“Cherokee was originally a pure and weak-hearted race.”
“It didn’t seem that way. It was so fucking toxic? Insidious.”
“I learned about the dirtiness of the universe early on. “I and the rest of my compatriots would spend time listening to the imaginary stories he told.”
Do you remember old memories?
Does it remind you of a happy moment?
Although it was only for a moment, Yuren had a wide smile on her face.
“Really… I listened without realizing how time passed. It was interesting.”
His smile soon turned into a bitter smile.
It was like a sky where the sun had set and darkness had come.
I looked at Yuren.
At least, he seemed to be close enough to Grant that he still considered him a compatriot and recalled the happy past.
Yuren sighed briefly and sat down on her altar.
“Now you
A true transcendent
Was born again. Be proud.”
“I’m not particularly proud… But you’re really stronger now, right? It feels different from before.”
“If you’ve already felt that way, you must have really become stronger. Forget when you were mortal.”
“Why?”
It was a little annoying because it seemed like they were telling me to forget the past.
Tilting her head to one side, Yuren clicked her tongue.
“You are now a transcendent, a true transcendent. “Is there any need to remember the past when we have surpassed the limits of our species?”
“Just as you remember the good memories, I will also remember the past that was my essence. “There’s no need to forget, right?”
Yuren just laughed at my question.
Then she looked down at the ground.
“Well, that might be good too…”
What is that tone of voice and facial expression that seems to have a story?
Anyway, I have to ask something.
“Do you know it’s an obelisk?”
“It is a meaningless seed sown in the distant past.”
“… Seeds?”
“It is unknown who sprayed it, for what reason, and how.”
“So you’re saying it will germinate someday?”
“Maybe. “I have no idea what form it will take.”
I feel anxious for no reason. Well, nothing will happen, right? It’s not even the hunter gate.
‘Just in case, should I cut out all but five? Kkkk.’
It was amazing. There’s something even Elphe doesn’t know.
At this point, I decided to ask more.
“But what is the crucial difference from when you were mortal?”
“Can’t you feel it? Overwhelming eternity. That is your essence.”
Just in case, I lightly traced my skin with the dawn.
It wasn’t drawn.
Dawn is also a sacred object, and to me, it is no different from my alter ego.
‘If I do this, I won’t take any damage from most things? Or is it that the damage was done, but it was recovered in an instant, so you don’t know?’
It was confusing, but one thing was certain.
I am stronger than before.
But I still can’t believe it. Yuren must have read my expression and tilted his head to the other side.
“If you use your strength while fighting, you will feel it. “You have changed.”
“Thank you so much.”
I help everyone I see for the first time.
Maybe this guy is actually kind?
“There’s nothing to be thankful for. This is my duty. Therefore, even if the body disappears and the soul perishes. “My memories remain here as virtual memories.”
“Huh, then you are determined to remain? AI?”
“Hmph, I will exist with this temple forever. All the way.”
It was a meaningful line.
This Elphe I am facing right now is called Yuren.
Is it really a non-existent entity?
So how should she define interest?
It was ambiguous. I was confused.
But I shook my head.
Is there really a need to define it? I just need to focus on my work.
‘Besides, he doesn’t seem to like personal questions. I am far from that type of personality.’
So I decided to keep quiet.
This time Yuren spoke to her.
“Now prepare.”
“Prepare for what?”
“Do you know about the fate of the transcendent?”
“I don’t know. “You will tell me.”
He nodded her head.
Like a good-natured tutor, she continued her explanation kindly.
“Okay, this is the last thing I’m going to say.”
He rose from the altar.
Then he looked down at me and continued speaking.
“In any star, transcendents are bound to arise. The racial characteristic of mortals is to want to become better. Wanting to become cooler or stronger. This desire is fundamental.”
“Huh, really?”
So, they are the main characters of the web novel and the readers.
Was it all just hoping for vicarious satisfaction?
It’s connected like this.
“Among them, there are not many who have truly reached the seat of transcendence, the hierarchy.”
“I’m lucky.”
“No, just looking at the fact that those holy relics went to you means it’s fate.”
I guess so.
From the beginning, Grant planned to eat my body and become perfect.
I was once again thankful for the holy relics.
And I agreed with Yuren’s words.
To exist as a true transcendent. It’s not easy.
Leaving behind Laurel, who was watching with bated breath. Yuren followed her words.
“The transcendent has a nemesis. “That is what a deviant is.”
“Leaver? “Are you a traitor or something?”
Yuren shook her head.
“No. Fatefully entangled, you and
The existence of opposing concepts
Everything.”
“Ah…
Antithesis
!”
“You say that too. But this is reality. The races are diverse, and the lives we live are diverse. However, you and
Solved
“I’m planning to show up soon to see it.”
“How can you be sure of that?”
“Because this is something that true transcendents like you experience all the time. Our Elfe was no different.”
Yuren also seemed to have seen and heard many things before she came to Yasgard.
Well, I guess it could lead someone like me to become a true transcendent.
But on the other hand, she was pitiful.
Although it is an AI without a soul.
It’s like being trapped here for the rest of your life, waiting for the next true transcendent. Is it fun?
‘It won’t be fun. It’s not fun, so I’m going to dig around.’
She sighed heavily and said.
“You’re saying really nice things.”
“Don’t worry. After that, it will be peaceful. When deserters appear, kill them in whatever way suits you. Defeat your nemesis and achieve your wish.”
It was obvious.
Leavers or whatever.
If anyone blocked my way, I would just kill them like a devil.
‘But you can’t just ask me to step down, right?’
Whoa, tsk!
Yuren slowly exhales and disappears. Just as she appeared, she disappeared in an instant, and she felt a little lonely.
She scratched her head and turned back.
“Well, my lord… !”
Laurel, who had been crouching, got up and approached me.
I smiled at her.
“Laurel, you can write down what you see. “It’s really valuable information.”
“May I… ?”
“Sure! Maybe there are people who want to be like me. “Wouldn’t it be a good textbook?”
“Hey, my lord… ♥”
Laurel twisted her body while holding the hem of her skirt.
What, why are you like this? This woman?
“Now that the nun has found out more about Elphe, it would be nice to write about her like a thesis.”
“Ugh, the lord is so kind as expected! That’s the charm!”
We went back as was.
After returning to the Weaver Pool estate, I first looked for her daughters.
Everyone was doing well.
The women who looked after their daughters looked tired today as well.
You just have to compensate generously later.
“Whoa.”
My fateful nemesis, the deserter.
Is this a guy coming?
I was nervous.
But when is it coming?
Where does it appear?
Anyway, Yuren, this guy. They don’t even teach you the right things.
I shook my head.
But I couldn’t let this time go to waste.
First, I remembered the abilities of the holy things one by one.
I controlled and used it right away to get used to it.
Strangely enough, everything was accomplished through Kahlum.
And even Kahlum no longer felt foreign.
It almost felt like a different type of blood flowing through my body.
After using my abilities one by one, I looked back at my daughters.
‘Even if it’s to protect my women and daughters. I will definitely stop it.
Even if I die…
!’
If I want to protect someone precious, I have to be prepared to die.
I thought it was good to make resolutions like this sometimes.
There is a lot of sadness for no reason.
I laughed at my absurd thoughts and focused again.
Let’s practice, practice!
