Dissipation (3)

Excalibur Despair. It couldnt be said to boast the highest destructive power among the swords Oh Joo-young had made on Jormungands side; however, it could be said to contain most of his abilities as he used it himself. Rather, should it be said that it had the largest fragment of his soul? As proof of that, the moment he took it out, hatred for Janus flowed out of the sword and tried to dominate Kang Shin-hyuk.

You betrayed everyone to become stronger, and in the end, this happened to you. You were too stupid.

No, could this be a great success in a sense? His main body was dead, and only a few swords remained, but the Godslayer that was in Januss hand effectively showed off his ability. Moreover, even though it felt ridiculous, Kang Shin-hyuk would also face a big change due to Oh Joo-young. Though he died, he left an irrefutable mark on Jormungand and the Hero Universe.

So go with ease.

Now, just like he did before, he would draw up both his spiritual power and Golden Dragon Fighter to swallow up the swords thoughts. Though the power contained in [Excalibur Despair] was as different from Oh Hye-nas greatsword as the sky from the earth, the basics were the same. By injecting soul poison, he could suppress and dissolve the soaring hatred and murderous rage, then bite into the weakened energy.

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!]

He felt like he heard a lot of Oh Joo-youngs screams today as he hefted the sword, Abyssus, in his other hand. The blade that Janus swung at a speed that surpassed Shin Eunahs response was blocked by it. Januss goal was Oh Hye-na.

Anvil! To protect that lowly thing!

Lets solve it ourselves, huh?

She was trying to kill you!

I wonder who is worse?

While trying to kill everyone else, she showed unchanging favor only to Kang Shin-hyuk. Even he was against it.

Besides, arent you trying to hurt me too?

Im moving to protect you.

That doesnt work, really!

There was no insanity. No, it was like she was two people, so she was insane. Janus wielded her sword with an expression that she truly didnt understand why Kang Shin-hyuk blocked the attack with Abyssus. He was uneasy because he didnt know the swords ability yet. Fortunately, it was superior to any other weapon he had dealt with so far, and he was able to stop Januss sword several times. Above all, Abyssus was raising all his senses beyond the limit just by holding it. Had it not, it would have been possible to respond with such agility to Januss speed that transcended cognition.

Eunah Now!

Haah!

Somehow blocking Januss sword and glancing at Shin Eunah, she nodded and rushed Janus again.

Huh.

?!

However, Januss energy exploded as if she were waiting for Eunah to approach. Looking at the huge energy gathered in an instant, it seemed she was ready to attack Eunah just like she had Oh Hye-na.

-Kwaaaaang

Januss energy spread out like paint on water, unparalleled in its density. On the other hand, Shin Eunahs output remained the same, so she was pushed back.

Kahak!

Eunah!

Kang Shin-hyuks eyes widened as he saw Shin Eunah bounce away from Janus and hit the wall, but he couldnt run to rescue her right now. His work wasnt finished!

Okay, then.

Janus flew to Eunahs side with a satisfied smile on her lips. She reached out to grab the golden jeweled headband adorning her bangs.

Ill take this as I said earlier.

!

It was the birthday present Anvil gave to the seven-year-old Eunah. She hadnt stopped wearing it the moment she received it. Although she had met the reincarnated Kang Shin-hyuk and changed, she had lived with this headband. The moment Janus took it, Shin Eunah literally exploded.

Give mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Ugh, Eunah?!

Even Janus was surprised to see Shin Eunahs fierce mana reaction, but their voices immediately got lost in the chaos as the golden magic that erupted from her body took away everyones senses. It was a torrent of power that even Eunah couldnt properly control that swallowed up everything. Janus knew that if it went on like this, everything would be swept away.

Kh Quickly!

[Huh Haaaaaaah!]

It was then that Kang Shin-hyuk succeeded in completely consuming the remains of Oh Joo-young in Excalibur.

-Youve acquired fragments of the trait [Excalibur]. Because it has been contaminated and deteriorated, it is impossible to restore them, but due to its similar wavelength, the trait [Guardian Golden Dragon (SS)] has absorbed all the fragments of the trait!

-Talent [Guardian Golden Dragon (SS)] has met all conditions for evolution. The trait will evolve!

Oh Joo-youngs strong trait wasnt just strengthening swords, but also strengthening oneself through training with the sword. It was very similar to the Guardian Golden Dragon, but it had a much narrower range. Essentially, both were the ability to change things, but the gaps each lacked complemented each other, leading to a huge change for Kang Shin-hyuk A greater change that he couldnt even dream of.

Done! Now I understand, I can see!

Kang Shin-hyuk had been vaguely expecting it, but it was only then that the Guardian Golden Dragon met all the conditions to soar even higher. Breaking everything in the way, going higher and higher!

-Youve awakened the trait [Royal Dragon (X)].

It would be meaningless to meet Earths standards, but it was the moment when a human being awakened to a second trait that completely exceeded the current limit.

-Youve gained the authority to interfere with variables in all situations. All stats are strengthened by breaking the limit. Most skills will grow significantly.

-Skill [Wind Mastery (SS+)] has evolved to become [God Wind (X)]. The skill level has increased to SSS-rank.

-Skill [Spatial Coordination (SSS)] has evolved to [Space Domination (X)]. The skill level has increased to SS-rank.

-Golden Dragon Fighter has changed to Breaking Machine. It has become X-rank.

All his skills and stats changed, but he didnt have time to look closely at it. Kang Shin-hyuk instinctively brought all his energy to bear, injecting it into the two swords he held. Not only [Excalibur Despair], but even Abyssus, which rejected him so far, couldnt dare stand against his power.

Janus!

It was possible now. He couldnt overpower Janus, but at least he could hold her back for a while. Considering from the start she said she had a limited amount of time she could stay here, that would be enough. Most of all, considering Shin Eunah was at the center of that golden magic power, it was impossible to withdraw.

Wow, even you!

As Kang Shin-hyuk entered the runaway magic without hesitation, Janus immediately cried out. She was confronting Shin Eunah and him simultaneously, and she felt horror as the magical power Eunah emitted shook the entire space. Janus already held the golden jewel, and Shin Eunah went even more berserk as she put it in the center of the Godslayer sword.

Give meahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

No, I cant.

Eunah!

Recovering the jewel from Janus was secondary. Kang Shin-hyuk hit the floor running after judging the situation. Moving at a speed unlike beforeJanus instinctively retreated from the sword attack, that appeared as if he had moved through space.

Anvil, youre good at fighting?

Thank you so much for admitting that now!

But now wasnt the time for chitchat. Kang Shin-hyuk stepped forward, but surprisingly, Janus stepped back.

Well, if I leave like this, all will die. I got the gem back.

Youhhhhh!

Eunah!

Shin Eunah grew angrier as Janus tried to run away after stealing something precious from her, but Kang Shin-hyuk urgently stopped her. If Shin Eunah ran out of energy this way, not only her but everything would end. He couldnt leave it at that! Kang Shin-hyuk had to stop her, and it would be possible with his ability.

Janus, if youre going, disappear quickly.

No, if I go, youll stop Eunah, right? So I cant go, sorry.

Janus smiled bitterly like she was really sorry, then bounced her finger against her sword. It made a gentle sound, but at that moment, an absurd amount of energy flowed toward Kang Shin-hyuk and Shin Eunah, sparkling with

Black? Scattered and divided, the sword is aimed at Eunah!

With the power of Royal Dragon, he grasped the meaning of that movement and responded to it. By activating his evolved skill, Space Domination, he identified the position and speed of the sword and suppressed them, while at the same time exploding all the energy he could handle to erase the sword attacking Eunah.

But it was still lacking. For Kang Shin-hyuk, who had just awakened his ability, it was impossible to completely block Janus, who had reigned as absolute power for a long time.

Anvil, you showed me something really cool in the end. Okay, if thats the case, I can look forward to our next meeting.

!

There was no time to catch Januss words as her sword stuck into Shin Eunahs back. He urgently tried to infuse Eunah with energy to heal her, but he wasnt used to dealing with the changed energy!

Anvil When the battle is over, you have to work on the Godslayer again. Then, next time.

Janus disappeared like she hadnt been there from the start as she watched Kang Shin-hyuk look over Eunah. However, Kang Shin-hyuk wasnt paying any attention to her. The sword left by Janus was stabbed into Shin Eunahs body and inducing her energy to go berserk, so he tried to calm it down. However, something unexpected happened. The Great Heavenly Spirit, reinforced by Halos branches, came out of his belt in response to the violent flow of energy.

No, no.

Kang Shin-hyuk exclaimed briefly. However, the orb resonated with Shin Eunahs magical power and emitted a bright light. The gate reacted violently to it, causing an explosion!

Huh?!

Eunah was dangerous! With only that thought filling his head, Kang Shin-hyuk held mindlessly onto her. He didnt know the details as he had just acquired the skill, but the Breaking Machine was a force that interfered, changed, or evolved everything. Of course, he could stop this berserk magic! The problem was time. He couldnt do it all. Holding the Great Heavenly Spirit, stopping the gate explosion, and protecting Shin Eunahs body at the same time It was impossible. As he struggled with that choice, Shin Eunah opened her eyes and pushed Kang Shin-hyuk away. He couldnt resist her strength.

You?!

Was Kang Shin-hyuk the only one whose trait evolved? Yes. The moment the headband was stolen, Shin Eunahs trait had also evolved. Needless to say, because she was given a buff It was because she couldnt properly handle her magical power at that moment it went berserk

I dont like grandpa.

Shin Eunah said so as she stopped Kang Shin-hyuk. Contrary to that, she smiled and jumped into the gate before her magic ran out.

Two terrible and great energies collided Leaving nothing behind.

The gate vanished, and Shin Eunah vanished. Other than those two things, nothing else disappeared.

Kang Shin-hyuk looked down at the Great Heavenly Spirit, which had lost what it was resonating with and had fallen silent.
