Chapter 919 – Ruler of the Game
『Ho… Who is this? Isn’t this my great warrior? How have you been?』
Is that why? Interestingly, unlike other summoned beasts, the God of Darkness greets Seongil in a subdued tone.
‘This is the true face of the God of Darkness…’
The vast darkness is concentrated into one point, and a beautiful black angel is created around it. However, Seong-il instinctively sees the angelic appearance of the God of Darkness as a reflection of his imagination. The actual appearance feels closer to the darkness concentrated in the center.
“I want you to help me get rid of those damn things as much as possible.”
『As you wish. It’s time to repay the debt.』
The God of Darkness responds to Seongil’s request in a tone full of joy and then begins to inflate his body. Then, in the blink of an eye, God’s body grows large enough to fill a huge square.
“… Black hole?”
The transformation of the God of Darkness that can only be explained that way. The pure darkness was very similar to the great celestial body that Seong-il had seen in past movies.
『To repay your devotion to me, I have marked the destination you must go to. Let’s leave towards there.』
The God of Darkness said that if Seong-il was here, he would not cause any harm to him, so he would be unable to use his full power. Seong-il recommends that you quickly escape this dimension and leave for your destination.
“… Morning Star?”
A beautiful little star stands out in a dimension that has become a space of pure darkness. Seong-il is convinced that it is some kind of sign arranged by the God of Darkness just moments ago.
“Damn it!! How on earth does that apostate bring in so many alien beings!!”
The high-ranking bishop of the Transcendental Church, who saw Seong-il flying from the dark space to the marked space, cursed Seong-il in a voice full of anger.
“Oh! You look somewhere else with me in front of you. That’s great confidence.』
And as if laughing at the bishop, the God of Darkness activates his formidable manpower and begins to suck the surrounding Transcendentalists into his direction. As the church members are instantly crushed to death by an unimaginably terrible force, the bishop of the Transcendent Church stops swearing at the holy day and looks at the God of Darkness with a tense expression.
“Everyone, come to the barrier! Due to the flow of causality, beings from that other world will never be able to descend here for a long time!”
‘I guess the bishop level has the equipment or power to analyze causality…?’
Seong-il, who heard that every bishop he met spoke the same thing about his summoned beast, pondered his lines with an annoyed expression.
‘… Still, the interest in me is a good thing.’
However, apart from that, the attitude of the Transcendentalists, who read the law of causality and take a thorough defensive stance, paradoxically benefited Seong-il as they focused on summoning beasts instead of interfering with Seong-il.
『Hehe… Go. My children. It’s been a long time since I did something like this.』
On the one hand, he is a god of darkness who torments the Transcendentalists by sucking his enemies into the great darkness, and on the other hand, expelling his evil relatives from the darkness. He had been fighting proxy wars with the God of Light for eons, and since he had long since gained enlightenment and stopped such actions, he seemed to find the current situation of sending his believers into battle strange.
‘Oh… Lassal. I see you again.’
The beings that Seong-il summoned a moment ago appear again, this time under the call of darkness. The nine-winged great devil who is Lassal’s true form disguised as a weak goblin. A dracolich whose body is filled with all sorts of evil visions. An undead knight that Seongil also sees for the first time. Angels, etc.
Demigod-level descendants of darkness appear one after another from the darkness and launch an onslaught on the defensive walls of the Transcendental Cultists. That alone is threatening, but the beasts under the control of the God of Darkness appear to be unaffected by the black hole’s powerful pull, unilaterally forcing the absurdity of the battlefield onto the enemy.
“It’s okay if the relic runs away and is destroyed!! Use all your strength to hold on!!”
The Transcendentalists struggle to resist as much as possible against the powerful enemy’s offensive. They try to withstand the enemy’s onslaught by desperately using holy relics made from body parts of cosmic beings they have encountered while wandering through dimensions for countless hours. However, despite this, quite a few Transcendentalists are crushed by the evil power emanating from the God of Darkness and many of them begin to die.
‘Good. You’re doing a good job.’
As the God of Darkness completely controls the dimension according to his demands and slaughters his enemies, Seong-il thinks it was a good thing he paid a high price to summon him. And the causality that recovers quickly.
‘Payback is guaranteed!’
As the points for the next summon are completely restored without using the dungeon core, Seong-il feels a moment of comfort even in a hopeless situation.
‘… Even if you have points left, it’s meaningless if you run out of summons.’
At that time, I was flying around for a while, following the revelation given by the God of Darkness while having uncomfortable thoughts. After Seong-il arrives at the point, he realizes that he has been transported to another dimension again.
“… Again?”
Seong-il is amazed at the persistence of the Transcendental Church, wondering what kind of dimension he has created so many. Meanwhile, the elites of the Transcendent Church appear again. Seong-il gritted his teeth and announced another trump card. He repeatedly summons the ‘Abyss’ to eliminate them.
『Summon the abyss. The summoning time is 1 hour.』
‘… Was the space meow that fell into madness the true form of the abyss?’
The true face of the abyss can only be expressed that way. It had a sinister body made of blood-red stars and space. A look that can be said to be exactly the opposite of a space meow.
He was opening a dimension in a universe overflowing with evil power, allowing all kinds of twisted and grotesque creatures to descend into reality. Not only the otherworldly race made up of grotesque flesh and cursed negative ether, but also the descendants of stars that Seong-il himself knows well.
“You crazy bastard…!!”
Seong-il, who confirmed through his reaction that the creature will not disappear from the abyss and will remain in reality, looks embarrassed and curses.
『Didn’t you want to kill them in the most efficient way?』
Abyss responds with an eerie voice to Seong-il’s insults. Unlike other summoned beasts, he seemed to have the ability to slightly twist Seongil’s coercive orders, perhaps because he was a cosmic being more than a god of darkness.
‘Still, it’s a summon that can be controlled.’
In Seongil’s case, Abyss and other summons did not descend his true body, but his alter ego descended by borrowing the power of the game master. He believed it would not have any significant impact on Earth. Even if it is wrong, this is especially true because it is a separate dimension from Earth.
‘Still, I quite like the idea of that damn dimension collapsing.’
The small dimensional pocket that contained countless human beings is being corrupted and destroyed due to the onslaught of the abyss. Thanks to this, the Ys people who could not wake up were twisted and broken in the dimension and died instantly, and Seong-il was thrilled when he saw that.
After that, he went back and forth to different dimensions several times. Since he should have left his trump card behind, Seong-il finally begins to use his skills to attack the inside.
An alter ego that inherited Seongil’s mighty power. Hundreds of thousands of combat-type G.E.C.R.S created by the Gaia system pop out from the inventory and begin attacking the enemy. Even nanomachine-type massacre weapons created through the Gaia system are activated to kill enemies by exposing them to mechanical diseases.
“You’re crazy…”
Through such a vicious struggle, Seong-il finally enters the deepest part of the dimension. And what you see is an enormous ark. The huge ark, which made the arks used by Illax and Selaumaini look like toys, seemed to be at least the size of the moon, shocking even Seong-il, who had seen countless things while crossing dimensions.
“Hmm… I’m not an apostate.”
At that time, Seong-il was momentarily shocked as he saw a huge ark floating within a vast artificial dimension. A familiar and eerie voice echoes from the top of the ark.
“…!!”
Seong-il raised his head because of an ominous feeling. There, he looks at a person standing at the center of countless humanoid Transcendentalists.
‘That guy… Why does he look familiar?’
When Seong-il sees a man wearing a creepy priest’s outfit and holding a strange staff that seems to be a holy relic of the Transcendental Church, he senses that this man is the apostle of the Transcendental Church he has been looking for. However, for some reason, Seong-il feels very familiar with the guy and feels strange.
“You’re human.”
An apostle of the Transcendental Church who mutters while looking at Seong-il, who is glaring at him in silence, with an interested expression. Even though he asked Seong-il several questions, the guy snorted lightly and waved his hand when he didn’t answer because he was preoccupied with other thoughts.
