My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

#229

Aftercare (1)

There was no need to waste time trying to figure out the situation.

In reality, only his body was asleep, but his mind was still awake.

Even though it was divided into nine pieces according to various tendencies.

“under! “This is true.”

The fragmented thoughts that had flowed according to their individuality in various places suddenly began to settle into a single system.

Heinz II joined hands with the Vice President of the Republic and prepared for a decisive battle with Obaipo.

Hubert is taking advantage of the chaotic situation to further grow his company.

Harris is busy photosynthesizing like a plant hanging on the branches of the World Tree.

Howard succeeded in learning the secret skills of the dwarves from Geary Zaonic.

Hesperon was comfortably learning magic under the attention of Riley, who visited every day.

Hugo took care of the fallen body and fulfilled his role on Earth.

In addition, Harley, who was completely devastated by the battle with Dasu, ended up defeating all the other demons and beating up the lone warchief, going berserk…

‘…It was only two days.’

Heinrich held the brilliant holy sword tightly in the elation of having just reached transcendence.

And even Hans, who was expressing his anger with his heart pierced by the holy sword.

‘How can things get to this point in just two days?’

I wiped my face with both hands and sighed again.

Looking at that little bastard, I couldn’t help but feel sad.

In the process of recovering his mind, the abyss that encroached on Hans’ mind briefly raged, but due to the energy of the holy sword that was embedded in his body at the time, the resistance did not last long and was quickly suppressed.

‘Of course, even if it wasn’t a holy sword, it wouldn’t have been a big problem.’

I slowly turned my head and checked again the phrase that came to mind before I lost consciousness.

《Unique skills grow and potential blooms. Acquire the special skill “Soul Firewall”.》

As before, it went beyond simply filtering out negative influences with “Mind Herb”, and was literally the ability to build an inviolable barrier to the soul of the main body.

‘…With this, something like before will never happen again.’

As I tried to block the backflow flowing in this direction, I grew completely immune to mental contamination.

I had just discovered a weakness in my ability and needed a solution, but it saved me a lot of trouble.

‘The remaining question now is how to resolve the current situation.’

When I thought about that, I frowned without realizing it.

Aside from everything else, the accident that Hans did this time went far beyond the line that had been kept so narrowly.

Many people’s lives were lost in the chaos, and even his comrade Geos was swept away by it.

The subject, Hans, was myself, so who can I blame…

Is this how I felt when I came to my senses at the police station after drinking and having a bad accident due to the film being cut off?

‘Damn it, if only that giant hadn’t made a fuss back then!’

…Okay, if you look at it that way, the culprits were the people who forced alcohol into the person and caused the major accident.

The giant who committed the crime, the revolutionary who summoned it, and even the master who was behind it.

If you think about it strictly, isn’t this person just a victim?

‘Ha—damn it.’

Of course, even if I ignored reality like that, nothing would change.

Now, it would be better to fix the situation first before blaming others.

[Kiyaaagh——!]

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

With the sharp roar of the bone dragon that sensed its owner’s danger, the large body moved and a strong gust of wind swirled.

Immediately after the wind passed by the Immortal King and the warrior, the battlefield naturally entered a lull.

Hans, the Immortal King, quickly intervened, grabbed Heratos by the horns, climbed on his head, and retreated.

And the warrior Heinrich, holding the holy sword and standing in front of his colleagues who were on the verge of exhaustion.

Among them, who were quietly looking at each other in tension, the Immortal King was the first to open his mouth.

[Hehehehe— Indeed, it’s pretty good. Heinrich the warrior. I never thought I could do this much. I underestimated you all.]

Although he was smiling arrogantly as always, Heinrich’s final blow inflicted damage that he could not ignore.

Not only did the sacred flame that started from his chest continue to consume his power, but a considerable shock was also sent to the “Immortal Heart” beyond subspace.

Of course, as he was an immortal king in name, he was not immediately incapacitated by allowing a vital point, but it was still true that he suffered an unexpected fatal blow.

So it didn’t seem like a bad idea to step down at this point.

“This is the beginning, Hannibal Strauss! “Next time, I’ll break your heart for sure.”

[Bluff doesn’t work, warrior. The condition of you and your colleagues doesn’t look very good, does it? If the fight continues like this, who will be the last one left?]

“…Huh!”

As he said, the hero party was actually in a worse state right now.

Heinrich also appeared to be relatively fine thanks to reaching transcendence, but his armor and other equipment as well as his body were in tatters.

The saint’s protective shield that protected the party from the energy of the abyss surrounding them was about to break.

The party members, who desperately had to give their all, were also breathing heavily and sweating coldly, so it seemed difficult to continue the fight any longer.

[I have no intention of ending this game here, hero. Wouldn’t it be boring if the continental conquest was so trivial?]

And above all… Geos’ condition was very serious.

So much so that it wouldn’t be strange if I stopped breathing at any time.

[However, it is also true that this body stepped forward and then retreated, so let’s call the invasion that occurred in this area your victory. You can be happy.]

The price he paid for his generosity was that the Immortal Army would not attack the southern area near Beorsen.

‘Actually, it’s not easy to scout for ghosts here because of the shamans, and it’s also difficult to find people who can cause terrorism.’

Also, Harley was in the midst of destroying the last remaining target, Baltheon and his gang.

“…As long as the Lord is with us, we will never stop or fall. “I will definitely throw you to the bottom of the abyss, Immortal King!”

[Huh—that would be fun too! Then, let’s wait happily for that day.] As

soon as those words were finished, the darkness that had filled the space was instantly sucked into Hans, and the endlessly spacious surrounding space was transformed into the central hall of the mansion in the blink of an eye.

Flutter—flap—crumble!

Next, the massive body of the Bone Dragon that was hovering in the sky broke the ceiling of the narrow building and flew into the sky.

[Next time, I hope to see you at the Immortal Castle where I am. Heinrich St. Landgard, my only adversary. Hehehehe—!]

And the Immortal King disappeared leisurely through the night sky without even paying a glance to the undead or demons still remaining.

Now, it’s as if it’s okay to deal with those idiots.

‘Okay, it was natural.’

It was around this time that Hans was no longer visible.

At that moment, Heinrich, who had successfully completed the first task, ‘The Escape of the Immortal King,’ was nodding his head.

“Jios! “Come to your senses!”

“Mr. Geos!”

“Saint, quickly come this way…!”

…The scheduled time has arrived.

***

Kwaang—!

A 4-meter-tall muscular giant slammed his fist down on a man who was only as tall as himself.

“Wow! “This monster!”

“Kahahaha! Who says who is a monster? “You little monster!”

“Kk nenoom—!”

A body covered in black and purple stains with hideous, bulging muscles growing all over its body.

Baltheon, who was clearly a monster himself, tried to frame him and criticize him, but the awesome warrior Harley (4 meters tall) just laughed and punched him again.

‘As expected, this size is perfect! If you raise him any further, his quickness will decrease and he will become nothing more than a punching bag for fast guys like this guy.’

When the battle began, Baltheon, a demon, expanded his size and attacked, but there was no way he could compete with Harley, who was the “ultimate evolved life form” and could control her body at will.

No, just the case itself is similar.

Compared to Harley, which had reached an imperfect level, it was superior in every way.

Even with “Tyrant of Madness,” it was possible to convert ‘madness’ into biological energy to replace the necessary calories, thereby solving the problem of combat sustainability that had always been an issue.

“Hahaha! It’s strong, it’s strong! “Let’s go until it breaks!”

“Ugh! “You beast!”

In addition, he uses the amplifying effect of the “Khalkos-style Battle Engraving” and the “Biological Aura” extracted from his overwhelming biological power, and even uses the anomalous ability “Jewel Eye: Coercion.”

It was no coincidence that he destroyed all the demons in numerous battles.

In such a situation, there was no way that Baltheon, who was left alone, could defeat Harley, who could not win even with a majority.

In the end, after the mansion’s barrier collapsed and the Immortal King left, he seemed even more agitated…

“…Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr away Just now, this guy was raging like an animal…! shit! “This clever guy, was that a loophole deliberately shown…?”

In the end, not long after that, he was grabbed by the neck by Harley and was subdued.

The crushed limbs are twisted by the constant external pressure of “Jewel Eye: Coercion” to prevent them from regenerating.

“Well, that’s…”

Seeing him grinding his teeth as if he was being wronged, his body woke up and Harley, who had regained her senses enough to have a normal conversation, scratched the back of her head.

It was true that I was just running wild without thinking, so I didn’t have anything to say.

However, as the fight comes to an end, the senses that were concentrated in a narrow spot to detect even the movement of even the enemy’s muscles are released.

The moment when Harley’s keen perception recognized a wider and farther range.

‘what? ‘There are more people who survived than I thought?’

He could see that in this city, not only the warriors who came with him, but also quite a few survivors were hiding here and there.

The fact that most of them are looking at this place with a strangely excited expression.

‘Ohh?’

Scratching the back of his head, his gaze turned to the red-colored, hideous-looking monster with a leash in his hand.

To Baltheon, the leader of evil who is the culprit of the uprising in the south and a symbol of dictatorship and oppression.

“Hahahaha—!”

Harley, who immediately grasped the situation, let out a satisfied laugh without even realizing it.

Harley has been full of generosity and intelligence to the point of being on par with wild animals since ancient times.

He answered Baltheon’s questions clearly and loudly, as if he wanted others to hear.

“of course! Baltheon, you were already in the palm of Harley’s hand! It’s only natural that this body can be said to be a true warrior and hunter! Kahahahaha!”

This moment in Southern history would have been quite monumental.

Harley subdued him with one hand and slowly applied strength to various parts of her body, showing off her physical beauty to the onlookers around her.

‘Hmm, now that I think about it.’

In the meantime, as the imprints engraved on various parts of his body came into view, the conversation he had with the great shaman Morna suddenly passed by.

A promise that if you solve the problems of the South, you will be engraved with the ‘King of Tu’s engraving’.

To be honest, I wondered how much help it would be in the face of transcendence, but the scarcity of an engraving that no one had engraved for hundreds of years was worth enduring the various inconveniences.

‘And the problem in the South is as if we just have to deal with this Baltheon.’

Since the head has been cut off, it won’t be that difficult to dispose of the remnants.

Seeing that the energy of the great witch doctor was vaguely felt within the city, it seemed that she had somehow managed to hide well within the barrier even during this tribulation.

Anyway, this can be considered the completion of the request.

But before that.

‘The main culprit behind the opening of the Abyss Gate is Baltheon, head of the southern branch of the Oath of Reverse Heaven. ‘This would be a pretty good gift.’

“Off! “What are you… ugh!”

Crack! Wow!

Harley crushed the creature’s body more thoroughly and thoroughly removed any dangerous elements.

Since we still had to keep them alive a little longer, it was a delicate gesture to block the factors that could cause an emergency situation.

“Whew, that’s it. Then let’s go!”

And he dragged Baltheon’s body, which was thoroughly wrapped with “Jewel: Coercion,” on the ground.

I headed to the central mansion, where silence began to fill me.
