Chapter 852 – Mythology Academy
Surprisingly, Professor Han realizes that what looks like cold ice is actually crystal. The expedition team was surprised by those words and soon after investigating the surroundings, they were surprised to realize that the huge underground ruins were all made of crystal.
‘Is this the ‘revision’ that Walter Ludian spoke of?’
Seong-il realizes that the modification of this ruin has some kind of relationship with the essence of Tala, based on a confession that Walter Ludian made recently to kill time, and appears to be on guard. In fact, strange waves were flowing out of the crystal, and some soldiers with weak skills were possessed by the waves and felt dazed or even driven into madness.
To protect them, Seong-il resummons his alter ego and deploys his domain to block the evil waves. It took a while for the expedition team that succeeded in defending against the evil power to enter the empty ruins.
In front of the expedition team was a huge plaza and a huge cliff made of crystal. And then a majestic temple built in the center appears.
『For my master… My life!!』
And the followers of Tala jumping out of both cliffs. In addition, there were a lot of terrible demons that seemed to have been summoned from another world around them.
“Ready for battle!”
Despite the sudden appearance of cultists and demons who seemed to be beyond their means, the faculty and soldiers were not shaken in the slightest, and instead grabbed their respective magic weapons and began spewing out powerful magic and supernatural powers at the enemy.
A transcendent battle beyond human imagination begins to take place in a huge square. The Tala side throws all kinds of terrible and evil powers, and the human forces fight back with powerful magic and supernatural powers.
The good news is that damage is occurring little by little. The military of the world of Mythology, which was superior in number and quality, was pushing Tala’s henchmen little by little.
Sigh…!!
As the heat of battle heats up, the central temple opens, and evil demons begin to pour out from there once again. As they came from the center of the temple, the quality of the troops was overwhelming compared to before, and thanks to this, as the battle on the battlefield became more intense, Seongil watched in silence, stopped conserving his strength, picked up Arunlabe, and rushed towards the enemy.
“…?”
Interestingly, rather than fighting against Seong-il, who charges in with Arunlabe raised, the demons open the way for him. At that time, Seong-il was embarrassed by the unexpected actions of those people. In the center of the shrine, Tala, holding his holy relic, gestures to his holy day.
『You have to stick with me. Isn’t it?』
“… Crazy bastard.”
Seong-il is dumbfounded by Tala’s arrogant attitude even though he is being pushed back. Meanwhile, the two deans of the academy and faculty members from the Athenaeum Order approach Seongil and begin to deal with the demons surrounding them.
“Leave the surroundings to us!”
A faculty member who reassuringly helps Seong-il in preparation for Tala’s unexpected moves. Seeing this, Seong-il raises Arunlabe with a relieved expression and then rushes towards Tala.
Kwaang…!!
As two demigods with great power and territory clash, an enormous shock wave begins to spread within the ruins. On the surface, it looks like a simple conflict, but in fact, the two demigods have already unleashed countless powers that are difficult for others to see.
In particular, when the causality prediction and the law of time, which are mainly used by both Seongil and Tala, collide, a spectacle unfolds that shows the surrounding space and time being strangely distorted.
“Can you please search now?”
Seongil frantically tears apart Tala’s defenses by unleashing Arun Rabe’s power and ruthlessly destroying the surrounding laws.
『Would you accept that request?』
When Seong-il tears down his shield, Tala accelerates her time power to quickly restore the shield. If it had been someone else’s attack, Tala would have easily neutralized the enemy’s attack by ‘returning’ time to the past, but the unprecedented power of destruction possessed by Seongil’s Arunrabe completely neutralizes Tala’s special ability, making him tired. 〈 Br〉
『This is true! It’s hard!』
As Seong-il pressures himself from all directions with powerful forces of destruction, cracks begin to appear in his iron-clad domain. However, despite the rather serious situation, Tala somehow shows a relaxed expression and steps back while blocking Seongil’s attack.
After such an intense exchange of defense, we naturally entered the Temple of Tala. Seong-il frantically fires the flame of destruction at Tala, while at the same time carefully looking around and being wary of Tala’s moves.
‘… The color of the crystal is darker?’
Unlike the external crystal, which has a slightly blue tint, it is blue-green in color. In other words, the crystals in the inner temple show a light closer to emerald color.
『Now… Shall we start again?』
While Seong-il looks away for a moment, Tala blocks Seong-il’s offensive with a relaxed tone and draws strength from somewhere. Then, as if he had been having a hard time with Seong-il, Tala’s area appears to be completely restored.
‘That’s the source of his power.’
Seong-il engages in a fierce battle with the recovered Tala and realizes that the crystal is the Tala crystal that Walter mentioned. Perhaps because it was an object that had accumulated power by absorbing the power of meteorites for thousands of years, the crystal still seemed to bestow enormous power on Tala even though Tala’s essence was transplanted into Lanz’s body.
『My power is infinite? Surely you’re not trusting the idiots outside? They are actually meaningless.』
After saying that, Tala brandished a black spear. Then, evil black flames spewed out. It seeks to corrode the realm of the holy day by spreading a terrible curse. In response to Tala’s threatening attack, Seong-il rebuilds his territory by increasing his power output and continues to fight over territory with Tala.
‘I’m glad the battle meditation worked unlike last time.’
Fortunately, unlike the dimensional rift that had no natural magic, this place is clearly a land of the world of Mythology, although it is ruled by Tala. Because of this, Seongil had an abundance of natural magical energy, and thanks to this, it was easy for Seongil to recover his magical energy through battle meditation, allowing him to maintain a long-term battle.
“Insolent bastard…!!”
Seongil, who quickly recovered his strength through battle meditation, once again deployed his triple domain and repeatedly suppressed Tala’s domain.
『Oh my! Is it okay to have something like that?』
About the time the area was half destroyed. Tala once again throws a mocking word at Seong-il and draws great power from the crystal again to recover.
‘The bastard is really…!!’
Seong-il, who thought that the battle would never end like this, summoned a lot of clones with an annoyed expression and made them use the blood-soul method.
“Stop that bastard!”
Seong-il used the Blood Soul Demonstration method to self-destruct the split soul clone that was close to Seong-il’s abilities. He took advantage of the moment when his ankle was grabbed by Tala’s clone and quickly rushed towards the crystal with Arunlabe held high.
『Dare?』
When Seong-il tries to insert a sword into her crystal, Tala abandons her relaxed attitude for the first time in a long time and tries to stop him by spraying black flames at Seong-il.
However, Seongil blocks Tala’s attack by concentrating his territory and maintaining a golden shield, then inserts Arun Rabe into a crystal with a dark blue light.
A powerful shock wave generated when Arunlabe is inserted into a crystal. Seong-il is startled by the power beyond his imagination and urgently tries to minimize the damage by using all the defensive capabilities of his artifacts and surrounding his area.
However, the powerful waves ignore the territory and are constantly projected onto Seong-il, and Seong-il feels that he is going out of his mind due to the strong waves.
‘Damn it…!!’
Dazzling light surrounds the holy day. The light and waves were so strong that Seong-il, who had already transcended the human body, had to close his eyes for a moment because of the intense light.
“… Keuung.”
Seong-il opens his eyes after frowning due to a terrible headache. And he quickly takes up his fighting stance again and prepares to stop Tala’s attack.
“… Where has Arunlabe gone?”
In the meantime, Seong-il shockingly realizes that his weapon, Arunrabe, is not in his hand. Because of this, Seong-il, who was surprised, quickly took the approach of bankruptcy and prepared for Tala’s surprise attack.
“Wait… Is this…?”
However, despite Seong-il’s preparation for the surprise attack, he was startled by the situation around him and lost his fighting stance for a moment. Seeing a strange world with only pure white light, Seong-il realizes where this is and mutters to himself.
“Isn’t this… My inner world? Why am I here all of a sudden?”
Seong-il is taken aback by the seemingly endless inner world. In the meantime, someone begins to quietly whisper to Seong-il, who is embarrassed.
『Who brought you here? If you think about it, isn’t it obvious?』
It’s quite familiar now. So a more ominous voice appears. Seongil turns his head with a stiff expression and looks at the direction from which the voice came.
