Resurrected Immortal 992

Chapter 992 – 992. The Birth of Evil (2)

What resided within the Black Finger Tree was not anything like reason or ego.
Emotions and instincts that have not been precisely established.
Or countless malices pushed to the limit.
It is created by the gathering together of the unclean malice that arises from intense hunger or thirst, sexual desire toward the opposite sex, excessive possessiveness, etc.
It is the source of the devil’s power.
And if these countless evil intentions gradually grow in power and reason or ego begins to be established.
Only then is it born as an entity called ‘the devil’.

[Looks delicious.]

[I want to eat it quickly.]

When it first devoured Marius’ body and soul and appeared in this underworld, I was insanely happy.
Because there was such delicious food spread out in front of my eyes.

[Kick.]

[Stupid things.]

The countless evil intentions residing within the Black Finger Tree mocked and laughed at the humans who were helpless against their power.
The young-looking priestess who easily broke her own finger was strong.
Her body was very strong, unlike that of ordinary humans, and she could easily block the spikes created by her own fingers.
Contrary to her appearance as a young girl, Anies had strong defense and incredible strength.
She could probably easily tear down her own tree trunk if she fought head-on.
Although she was such a threatening opponent, she was not at all afraid of countless malicious intentions.

[Giggles.]

If it had been just her and her and the two of them fighting, she would surely have lost.
However, on this battlefield, there were many people that the young priestess had to take responsibility for and protect.
In fact, Anies was busy fending off attacks from Holy Kingdom soldiers with the barbed awls of her countless fingers extending out in all directions.
The Holy Kingdom’s paladins, priests, and soldiers who had gathered to help her were no different from holding Anees’ ankles.
It was an ironic situation, but Myriad Malice knew all too well how to take advantage of it.
Anyes certainly had tremendous power, but there were too many people on this battlefield for her to protect and be responsible for.
Therefore, in the face of her not being able to use her full power, her countless malice left no doubt about her own victory.
Until they show up.

[Uh?]

The shadows that suddenly began to wriggle on the floor rose into the sky and took the shape of a shield.
The thorn awls stretched out in all directions, targeting dozens of Holy Kingdom soldiers, were all blocked by each unfolded shadow shield.
The first unexpected variable for countless evildoers who had no doubts about their victory.
Her confidence in her victory was shaken for the first time as she mocked the Holy Kingdom soldiers and Ani Es, who were just prey.
As soon as her strong mind cracked, she quickly turned into stressed and irritable.
In fact, the countless malicious strategies that had been holding countless soldiers of the Holy Kingdom hostage were completely blocked by the suddenly appearing shadows.
The strategy that could have given him the upper hand even against Anies, who had tremendous military power, was blocked.

[Shit.]

[Shit. Shit.]

[Shit! Shit! Shit!]

[What! What the heck is that!]

Hysteria filled with feelings of anger and frustration.
The reason was the impatience that arose from not being able to achieve victory in a situation where a powerful opponent was helpless and unable to do anything about himself.
To appease the thirst and hunger that never goes away no matter how much you fill it, only for the sake of satiety, to grow into a higher being.
It constantly yearned to eat humans.
But that thirst of countless malice could not be easily satisfied.

[Uh?]

I was shocked by the countless evil intentions residing within the Black Finger Tree.
It was because of something I felt from a certain direction.

[What… ?]

She suddenly felt hostility shooting towards her.
Dozens of eyeballs on the tree-like trunk all looked in the direction where the hostility was felt.
What came into the sight of the evildoers were two men and one woman.
I found them taking a stance and looking this way.

[Ah… !]

Malice was astonished.
This is because he could feel the terrifying fighting spirit emanating from them and the intense murderous energy directed towards him.
The tree’s trunk trembled as it saw a violent magical energy that had never been felt before, shaking and encroaching on its surroundings.
I instinctively felt the countless malice that existed within it.
That is dangerous.
You shouldn’t fight head on.
It was the first time I felt the fear of an overwhelming devastation that had only preyed on and ravaged humans.
If this continues, I might die.
A fear that turns anxiety into certainty.

“Goes.”

It was the voice of a silver-haired man who was at the forefront.
Normally, it would be impossible to hear a human voice from hundreds of meters away, but countless evil spirits heard it.
Myriad malice did not realize that his words were not directed at himself, but at his colleagues.
As soon as the short declaration ended, the wind picked up.
It was only after a few seconds that he realized that it was a gust of wind created by a man holding two swords running towards him.
Eunhyeon ran.

[Do not come!]

Creepy.
Myriad Malice felt that sensation.
Countless malices shouted in astonishment and fear.
The tree trunk was made of black fingers, and hundreds of branches trembled.

[Don’t come!]

As if to represent those emotions and words, the trembling tree branches turned into sharp thorn awls, with hundreds of fingers extending out.
Hundreds of thorn awls flew towards Eunhyeon, who was running towards him with her silver-haired hair flying.
Eunhyeon, who was narrowing the distance to a few hundred meters by the second, saw in her eyes the spikes of thorns flying towards her to pierce her.
The attack that pierces all parts of himself, including his head and chest, shoulders and arms, wrists, abdomen, waist and legs, is faster than an arrow or bullet.
It was a frightening speed that would pierce the eye in the blink of an eye, but Eunhyeon engraved them all into her eyes.

[Eunhyeon’s unique ability]
[Acceleration of accidents]
[Time Acceleration]

The flow of thoughts in my head and my physical abilities were accelerated to the limit.
The thorn awls flying at a speed of several kilometers per second to pierce his body were stationary as if they had stopped.
Time has not stopped.
As the flow of thoughts flowing through my head rapidly accelerated, time around me relatively slowed down.
Eunhyeon did not stop moving forward.
In order to cut down the thorns that threaten him, he accelerates even further, drawing an ideal sword path.
Finally, Eunhyeon’s sword made contact with the thorn awls.

Suddenly

As she cut down the nearest thorn awl, Eunhyeon’s sword cut through the thorn awls one after another as if dancing.
In a split second, he cut down hundreds of thorn picks.

[Nonsense… !]

The countless malice was astounding.
It only lasts a few seconds.
The time needed to cleanly cut down the hundreds of thorns under one’s control.
It was a speed that could not be considered a human ability.
In an instant, the entire tree branch was cut off, causing countless malevolents to groan in intense pain.

[Ugh… !]

But I was shocked for a moment.
Countless malice had to move immediately.
Eunhyeon, who had already cut down dozens of thorn awls, was glaring at herself with a straight gaze.

‘Now it’s your turn.’

As if to hint, his gaze was aimed at himself without hesitation.

[Don’t come closer… !]

Feeling fear towards Eun-hyeon, who was narrowing in on the countless evil intentions, he created a strong shield by stacking layers with his fingers.
Eunhyeon shouted after seeing that huge barrier.

“Riod! Now!”

[Olivion Swordsmanship]
[Sunspot Death Cham (黑點絶命斬)]

The magical power that made the entire area tingle, Riod’s sword energy, a vast condensation of magical energy, flew towards the barrier overlapped with the branches of the black fingers.

Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo

A huge sword blade extending in a straight line cut through the floor and collided with the black finger branch barrier.

Kwaaaaang!

A huge storm was created as the magical energy condensed within the sword energy was released, sweeping over the barrier and crushing it.
The sturdy barrier was originally no different from a body part of the black finger tree.
In addition to the considerable damage I had received from Eunhyeon’s sword, I felt intense pain due to the huge storm of magical power that swept over me.

[It hurts.]

[It hurts. It hurts.]

[It hurts!]

Countless cries of malice, crying out in intense pain, echoed in all directions.
The moment when a desperate cry resonated and resounded.
Siete jumped into the gap in the collapsed wall as if she had been waiting.
Siete’s mistletoe pointed towards the tree trunk with its black fingers imbued with countless malice.
When I saw Siete’s direct death through my mind’s eye, I could see the malice in the black tree fingers.
Something with energy that billows like black smoke.
What was visible only to her mind’s eye was the foundation and core of the tree.

“Die.”

The most merciless death sentence handed down to countless evildoers.
And as if to prove those words, Siete’s mistletoe fluttered, emitting a grayish coldness.
A single horizontal stroke cut down the tree trunk.

Damn it!

[Not… !]

The countless evil sounds that were trying to scream were cut off.
It was the result of cutting down the stem of Siete’s mistletoe inside the tree.
It meant that the countless evil spirits that were crying out violently touched Siete’s blade and met death.
A being that is nothing more than a lump of thoughts with no substance.
Although it was not something that could be cut with a physical means such as a sword, it was still impossible to avoid the direct death of Siete’s mind’s eye.

“Master!”

Immediately, I heard Eunhyeon’s voice from behind me.
Siete reacted to his words and hurriedly pulled her body back.
If Eun-hyeon had not warned her in advance to back off immediately when he gave the signal, she would not have been able to respond.
Indeed, if only Siete had not fallen back as soon as she heard him.

Fuuuuu!

Siete may have been caught up in the aftermath of the explosion of the countless evil intentions he had cut down.
Eunhyeon had been anticipating the explosion of malice, scattering black smoke, even before the attack began.
This is because he saw through its essence with the insight he possessed.

“That black smoke…”

Riod, who was watching the black smoke scattering in all directions, groaned softly.
Even at first glance, the smoke gave off an unusual presence, and I couldn’t help but sense that the situation wasn’t over yet.

“This is the beginning.”

The smoke gradually dispersed, and something appeared in the center of it.
It was a hole with no color visible.
An extremely ominous hole that can hardly be described as black, as if it suggests that nothing exists.
Eunhyeon slowly walked towards it.

“… Eunhyeon. Have you ever seen that?”

“First time seeing you. But… Still, there is one thing we can be sure of.”

Although it was a vague certainty that was purely intuition, the reason I was able to be certain was because I grasped the essence through insight.

“This is a door.”

“Door?”

“The door that connects the demon world and this underworld.”

“… !”

Riod was shocked.
Not just him, but everyone else around him.
The reason they came here as an expeditionary force was to block this gate.
But what if the door has already been built?

“The reason we came here… “Is it gone?”

Liod was depressed.

“The good news is that this is just a passage. “It doesn’t have any effect on this side.”

If the Void Stone’s method of invasion was to make it easier for demons to interfere through the process of demonization, then this was simply a passage connecting the demon world and the underworld.
The risk was the same, but the good news was that this lower world could not be turned into a demon world.
Once the Demon World transformation begins, the great risk of not being able to return to its original state has disappeared, so it is a relief rather than a misfortune.

“Then, if I just destroy this door, it’s okay?”

“Yes, but…”

The problem was that this door was made with the power of Media.
This door could be used by demons to pass from the Demon World to the Underworld, but on the other hand, it meant that beings on this side could also pass over to the Underworld.
That is, Mediah’s intention.

[I’ll be waiting. My love.]

If she wanted to destroy the gate, it was an invitation from the queen to come over to the demon world where she was.
