The anomaloria was a mythical monster that roamed the dimensional worlds freely.

It had a docile personality but taming it was very difficult.

The flapping wings caused a dimensional storm, so it was hard to even approach one.

Yet, surprisingly, Colladikus had climbed on it and waved at Rainkar.

Kukakakaka! Then I will see you again, Rainkar.

At those words, black smoke poured out of the anomaloria fins.

Pak!

Then like an illusion, the appearance of the anomaloria disappeared from Rainkars view.

This I ended up missing him.

Finally, the predator, that had been threatening Earth Hwanmong, had left.

However, Rainkar hadnt been able to defeat Colladikus.

He then suddenly flew toward one side.

It was the side where Kang-jun was trapped.

He was surprised to see flames expanding rapidly in front of him.

Unbelievable! It hasnt exploded yet.

A long time had passed since the original blast.

The fact that it had been retained until now meant that someone was blocking the explosion.

Lucan?

However, it was hard to believe. Something like this was impossible even for Rainkar.

He couldnt even carelessly approach the area. He would be sucked in and become trapped.

Unlike Rainkar who was outside the barrier, Kang-jun was looking ahead with a surprisingly calm expression.

Hwal hwal hwal-Hwaruru!

The fire spirit had a bitter and resigned expression on her face.

Hwaruru!

Her arms stretched over her head.

A gigantic black sphere was turning above her.

This was the spiritual power of the fire spirit queen, Klater! She tried to explode all her spiritual power continuously.

However, it continued to be canceled out due to an unknown strength.

Of course, it was Kang-jun.

Just like cutting off a lit fuse, the explosive power was helpless before Kang-jun.

Kang-jun was well aware that the spherical body of flames would end up exploding.

It was an instinctive movement that came from his desire not to die like this.

It was a move beyond his limits.

Kang-jun struggled to survive while Klater struggled to die.

Do you really have to die?

Kang-jun asked. It was ridiculous saying this to the enemy, but he still found it popping out of his mouth.

Klaters expression turned sad.

Then Klater looked at Kang-jun. She was angry at Kang-jun for interfering with her attempts, but she also admired him.

You are very great, but you wont be able to stop my destruction.

Why dont you quit at this point? What can you get by self-destruction?

I dont know. Ive just received a command and executed it.

Klater attempted to destroy herself again. However, Kang-jun blocked it again.

Klater laughed bitterly.

It is useless. I have reached my limit. After a while, there will be a bigger explosion.

They werent just empty words. At the end of her words, the black sphere in the sky started to expand even more.

That will explode?

He would die if that happened. Kang-jun was frustrated with this situation.

Did he come all this way just to die?

He had overcome his limits in the Guardian Hall and once again exceeded his limit today.

He had stepped a little closer to transcendence.

That would all be in vain if he died today.

He had gone through a lot of difficulty to raise his level.

Was there anything else?

The intensity in Kang-juns eyes increased.

I cant die here.

He focused his spirit on surviving. Klater watched Kang-juns glowing eyes and lamented,

Im sorry, human. I honestly dont want to kill for him. This is serious.

Kang-jun thought it was ridiculous.

If you are sorry, stop.

Actually, I cant stop. If that was possible, I would have stopped sooner. For some reason, he let me go from his household?

Who?

Colladikus. Before, when he was still my lord, he gave me one last order. This order wasnt lifted even when he released me. Both you and I have to die here, so give up.

Shut up! I will never give up. I wont die.

Kang-jun gritted his teeth.

Kwa kwa kwa kwa!

The sphere inflated even more.

If it exploded, it would probably have the power of a nuclear bomb.

Of course, it was probably an exaggeration, but he was desperate.

He felt an extreme sense of hopelessness at the thought of not surviving.

Then Klater smiled faintly.

Your wings! There seems to be something about them. I feel a familiar presence. It would have been nice if I met you sooner.

Shut up and stop it somehow. Are you going to die like this?

Kang-jun was troubled by Klaters attitude about the wings in this situation. Despite the flames, tears flowed from Klaters eyes for the first time.

An illusion

It was impossible for tears to flow from the eyes of such a bizarre being.

Real tears would have evaporated.

However, he still saw tears when he looked again.

I am the fire spirit queen, Klater. Human, I am sincerely sorry. I wont ask you to forgive me.

With those words, she closed her eyes.

It was because it was the last moment of control and she couldnt stop the explosion anymore.

Kuaaaaang!

There was a huge explosion!

Flames filled the surrounding area.

It was a hot heat that melted everything.

Kang-jun thought he died.

What type of being could survive such a huge explosion that literally collapsed heaven and earth?

However, at that moment, something strange happened.

Suddenly, the explosion of flames started to slow

And he didnt know how

There was a brilliant flash that destroyed all the flames.

The even more astounding thing was the brilliant light was coming from his sword!

It was like the last move he had seen in the Guardian Hall.

The black-haired man said he would only be able to stop it or use it if he was transcendent.

Then what was this?

There was something strange.

Kwaah!

The black sphere was still spinning and Klater had her eyes closed.

What? Was it just an illusion?

If there had been an explosion, Klater wouldnt be safe.

Thats right, the widespread destruction hadnt come.

Kang-jun had briefly seen an illusion of death in his consciousness.

However, the illusion wasnt just an illusion.

Then the black sphere became smaller and smaller and disappeared.

Ah I cant believe it. How did this happen?

Klater couldnt understand the situation. However, she fell to the ground like a popped balloon.

Her spiritual power was exhausted and her health was like a small, flickering spark.

If the fire was turned off, she would be destroyed and turn to dust.

Kang-jun caught Klater.

She had been floating slightly higher, so he moved reflexively when she fell down.

Hey, are you okay?

Klater lifted her eyes without any power and gazed at Kang-jun.

Human, did you stop my extinction?

Lets see! I dont know how it happened.

Kang-jun was even more confused by this situation.

The strange illusion from earlier!

The sword had swung once and it had the remarkable ability to destroy the black sphere!

However, no matter how he thought about it, he couldnt remember how it happened.

He wasnt a transcendent being.

If he was really transcendent, then he would be able to demonstrate that ability all the time.

How had it happened?

He couldnt be sure of anything.

Klater laughed slightly. She looked very tired.

It is a good thing. Frankly, I didnt want to die for him.

Her body was made of fire, but she wasnt burning hot. Her body temperature was just a little higher than a normal humans.

In this situation, I want to ask you for a favour.

Klater stared at Kang-jun with ardent eyes.

Can I please go into your wings?

Once again. Kang-jun was dumbfounded. His wings were already a place of rest for Aquana, the water spirit queen.

Now, Klater the fire spirit queen wanted to go into his wings to sleep.

Why are they so obsessed with my wings?

Kang-jun gazed at Klater.

Hey, fire spirit queen! Regardless of the reason, do you think you are in a situation where you can ask a favour of me?

To be honest, he didnt have a reason to help Klater.

If he hadnt experienced a dramatic miracle, he would have died.

Even I think it doesnt make sense.

Klater nodded like she understood Kang-juns reaction and closed his eyes.

Then do whatever you want. Kill me or throw me away, I will leave it up to you.

Tears flowed from her eyes and her expression looked pathetic.

Go inside and rest.

Klater gave a blinding smile at Kang-juns words and Kang-jun nodded toward her.

Klater entered Kang-juns wings without hesitation.

(Thank you, human.)

Then she didnt say anything else. She seemed to be sleeping.

I dont know how she can sleep in the wings.

The wings werent a bed, so it was absurd that the two queens would sleep as soon as they entered.

It was burdensome to think of having two spirit queens in his wings. He wondered what would happen when they woke up.

Then Kang-jun discovered Rainkar staring at him with a surprised expression.

What about Colladikus?

Unfortunately, I missed him. I dont know how but he has an anomaloria.

Anomaloria? What is that?

A mysterious organism that isnt affected by dimensional power. If you manage to tame one, then it is easy to go around the dimensional worlds. Thats why many predators desire them.

However, Rainkar didnt seem significantly sorry to miss him. Rather, he was looking at Kang-jun with a confused expression.

What was that before?

What do you mean?

How did you get rid of the sphere?

Im not sure.

Kang-jun replied honestly. When he told him that it was an illusion, Rainkar fell silent for a moment before shaking his head.

That wasnt an illusion. I saw it with my own eyes. The problem is that you cant use it freely yet.

Then he spoke with an envious expression,

You have already gone beyond me, Lucan.

Nonsense. There is still a long way to go before I can match you.

Rainkar laughed and shook his head at Kang-juns words.

Dont be humble. This is what enlightenment is. Just because someone started first doesnt mean that they will stay like that.

He stared intensely at Kang-jun.

However, that doesnt mean you are transcendent yet. Dont forget that you cant stay forever in that state.

I know.

You and I may be different, but you may want to fight a lot of enemies strong enough to bring you to the brink of death.

Fighting strong enemies?

They have to be strong enough to kill you. It would be a dangerous situation, but if you take that risk, you will probably be able to break that wall.

Thank you for the advice.

Shit! I cant seem to see it, but I am advising someone else.

Rainkar hit his chest and made a frustrated expression.

It was at that moment

[The Second Demon King Colladikus has lost and left Earth Hwanmong.]

[Sovereign Lucan! You have made a decisive contribution in defeating Colladikus with Rainkar.]

[100,000 red moon achievement points have been acquired.]

He gained a huge 100,000 achievement points.

Then another message appeared.

[The red moon shining in the sky above Earth Hwanmong will disappear.]

The red moon is finally over.

He immediately returned to headquarters when he saw the messages of his rewards.
