shit smell
‘They said he was a god, but it wasn’t an empty promise.’
I muttered, pushing hard into the hole.
I expected the Emperor to do something when he arose, but it turned out to be more complicated than I thought.
He collapsed all the monsters and absorbed them into space. I thought he was going to surrender, but instead, he started shooting thorns at them.
It was not easy to avoid them, as they were not even signs, and their speed was incomparable to that of monsters. There was not even a set number of them.
It felt like I was alone on a planet made of bricks, facing the master.
“Why did you choose such a difficult path?”
The emperor spoke softly. His voice was still flat.
‘You’re trying to persuade me.’
In my dizzy mind, I recalled the clue the Emperor had given me. He had not aimed for my weak point. He had no intention of killing me.
– I guess he’s trying to replace me with the hypocrisy.
I nodded to Oman’s words. If he didn’t intend to kill me, I guess he could move a little more roughly.
At that moment, the emperor waved his hand lightly.
The space itself shook in response.
As if he were the owner.
“It’s because I originally had a rebellious nature.”
I answered him, watching him closely. It was clear that the space was moving in time with the bastard’s fingers, but I still lacked a clue.
“If you change your mind, just tell me.”
The emperor spoke with a leisurely expression.
Then the thorns rose.
For a split second, a tiny ripple was visible.
I jumped to avoid the thorns that rose up, remembering him. The thorns rose up one after another as I followed.
Thorns shot out from all sides, not just below. I gritted my teeth and held onto my claws.
The red flame grew bigger and bigger. As it fed on blood, the already huge fire overflowed to an uncontrollable level.
The fire was burning me instead of my will. As if I were fuel. My flesh was melting. My mind was shaken by the intense pain. There was a yellowish smell.
– You are Aaron.
The voice of arrogance dragged me down. I fixed my claws. I struggled to somehow move the fire that had escaped my will.
The flames resisted wildly like wild horses. He scratched his thighs with his claws. As the flesh was buried, they clung to his claws.
As a huge flame filled his claws, he took the form of a greatsword. He swung at the thorns in front of him. The thorns melted away like ice cream.
I stared at the emperor through the melted thorns. His face was still calm. It was a face that I wanted to punch.
At that moment, the thorns continued again. They shot out endlessly as if they were infinite. The front was somehow meltable with the huge claws, but the back was impossible.
If you worry about the rear, you won’t be able to move forward.
‘Then I guess I don’t have to worry about it.’
I was amazed at the ingenious idea that suddenly occurred to me.
The bastard’s thorns were threatening, but their power was somewhat diminished when softened by the crimson fire.
Plus, the faster I run, the less physically painful it will be since the things flying from behind will be relatively counterbalanced by my speed.
If you run as fast as you can, you’ll probably hit the thorns aimed at your back.
I nodded in agreement with the perfectly scientific calculations that dealt with the profound laws of physics.
– That crazy guy.
I chuckled and ran straight ahead.
My back was stinging terribly, but it was bearable.
At that moment, I noticed a tingle before the thorns sprouted.
The Emperor who has no intention of killing me, the Emperor’s confident, arrogant smile, a sign of thorns-.
So I ended up with three cards in my hand.
The estimate was slowly being made.
***
The emperor squinted at the man running towards him, glaring at him.
Now the Emperor was in a state of hypocrisy, where he could control everything by will alone.
Even to deal with that bastard, I gave up the outside and focused all my strength inward.
Here, the emperor was virtually absolute.
And yet, the thing was still coming. It was slowed down by the thorns, but the distance was slowly closing in.
Even while giggling-.
‘Tough.’
The emperor clicked his tongue and waved his hand.
I was planning to subdue the bastard with thorns pouring down from all sides and feed him karma.
‘It doesn’t block the thorns?’
The bastard was rushing forward, using his divine power to deal with only the ones in front of him. He didn’t stop walking even though he was getting hit by the ones in the back.
The bastard’s body was riddled with holes. It was the price he paid for ignoring what was behind him. And yet, the bastard was chuckling.
As the wounds piled up, his movements became slower and slower, but the look in his eyes remained the same.
‘That’s tricky.’
If I was going to kill him, I would have distorted space and buried him a long time ago.
I didn’t mind cutting off his limbs, but it was a problem if he died.
In reality, I had lost a lot because of him, so if he didn’t take care of my karma, my plans would go awry. I couldn’t let him go now.
But since he was rushing in so ignorantly, it was quite difficult to deal with him.
The Emperor bit his lip and clenched his fist. Then a tingling sensation ran down his spine. As if a snake had licked him.
‘At a time when my health was unstable···.’
If you use force too much, the balance with hypocrisy could be lost.
However, there was no choice to deal with him now. The emperor took his time and drew out a little more strength. Hyeseon’s breath was getting closer.
Suddenly, I became curious. How can he still be sane when he uses the power of God so ignorantly? If he was going to get eaten, he should have gotten eaten a long time ago.
The Emperor shook his fist, suppressing the tingling sensation. Space began to shrink. Without stopping, the Emperor continued to shrink and compress space.
The vast space shrank to the point where only the distance between him and the Emperor was left. The creature was still moving towards the Emperor.
‘Just stay alive.’
The Emperor snapped his fingers as cautiously as possible.
As the space became compressed, faster, thicker, and more threatening thorns poured down from all directions towards the creature.
Since it couldn’t be killed, only the head and heart were left out. The thick thorns were deeply embedded.
The new model of the guy who was hit shook greatly.
For the first time, the bastard’s steps stopped.
As the density on this side increased, the thorns slowly melted.
The bastard stood still, blood pouring out of the holes all over his body, glaring at the emperor.
The Emperor clicked his tongue slightly. It seemed like he had been using his hands excessively since it had been a long time since he had fought.
‘But first, if we cut off the limbs···.’
At that moment, the guy started to sneeze. He wanted to speak, but it seemed like the words wouldn’t come out through the hole he had.
The Emperor lightly gestured and poured blood into the creature’s orifice. The creature’s body shook violently. The creature’s eyes became clouded for a moment.
Just when I was worried that he might have lost his mind-.
“I changed my mind.”
The man whose eyes had returned spoke in a calm voice.
“Changed?”
“The position of crown prince isn’t bad either. It’s good.”
The crown prince nodded at the bastard’s answer. He couldn’t understand why he was only accepting such a good offer now.
At that moment, the bastard leapt forward. Blood burst out again from the hole, but the bastard’s eyes were still fixed on the emperor.
‘You’re stupid.’
The emperor waved his hands, feeling tired.
The bastard was impaled again by thorns. His eyes went wide and his body staggered wildly as if he were going to collapse.
The Emperor clicked his tongue. It was clear that he still did not fully understand his proposal.
“The new empire will be more productive. The nobility will be divided so that they cannot be united like this time. As the hypocrisy that has achieved karma rises, its power and authority will also increase. It means that you too can become a god.”
The Emperor explained with the greatest patience of his life.
The man who heard him nodded.
“Have you changed your mind?”
Nod.
The emperor seemed to finally understand, clicking his tongue and removing the thorn.
Then the guy ran at me without hesitation.
The Emperor waved his hands again, feeling deep fatigue.
The one impaled on the thorns trembled again. His body was shaking violently. It was a state where it would not be strange if he died soon.
The emperor realized that his hand had been excessive and hurriedly injected blood. If the bastard dies, only harm will be done.
“Have you changed your mind?”
Nod.
When I saw that confident guy, I wasn’t even angry.
No, there was no reason for the absolute emperor to be angry in the first place.
“I think you’re right. That’s a good suggestion.”
The bastard nodded confidently. The emperor knew that the bastard was lying, but he released the thorn.
Anyway, since this was the Emperor’s territory, whatever he did was useless.
Even if the level of arrogance went up… no, rather, because the level of arrogance went up and the distance widened, there was a limit.
Going up means being separated from this side.
In contrast, this was a realm of hypocrisy, and there was even a body of hypocrisy.
There was no way the emperor would lose to that bastard.
That’s why I planned to leave him alone until he breaks.
However, no matter how many times he repeated this, he still stared at the emperor-.
The emperor, who was feeling bored with the repetitive actions, realized belatedly that the distance was shorter than he had thought.
‘Even so-.’
The emperor, slightly annoyed, shot the thorn with the intention of subduing it for sure.
At that moment, the bastard’s eyes flashed. The bastard’s movements were strangely distorted. It dodged as if it knew where the thorns would come from.
The emperor was horrified as he looked into the eyes of the man glaring at him.
‘It wasn’t that I couldn’t avoid it, but I was getting hit on purpose? This horrible thorn?’
The thorns made of humans not only stuck themselves in, but also tore at the flesh, causing excruciating pain.
But you endured that pain-.
He was a really bad guy.
The one who had been shaking precariously until now was now swinging its claws firmly towards the Emperor’s neck.
The emperor admitted that he had been complacent.
Just before the creature’s claws could slice off the Emperor’s neck, a white hand emerged from the Emperor’s left chest.
In a world where time seemed to have stopped, a white hand moved leisurely.
In that split second, the fire grew even bigger.
Thud thud- The bastard twisted his claws with a strange sound.
The white hand that was approaching him was cut off instead.
The emperor, who had just come to his senses, hurriedly collapsed beneath the guy. In an instant, a deep pit like an abyss was created.
Meanwhile, another white hand appeared. The white hand pierced the guy’s abdomen.
The guy with the hole in his stomach was pushed backwards helplessly and fell into the pit.
But even at that moment of falling, the bastard glared at the emperor and swung his claws.
It was a terrible speculation. For the first time, the Emperor felt fear.
A burning pain rose up from my neck.
It was the swordsmanship of the master of the sword. To display such exquisite swordsmanship with those rough claws-.
Even though a white hand was cut instead, a long line was drawn on the Emperor’s neck.
“Kkabi.”
The one who had been mumbling quietly disappeared down the pit.
At that time, the hypocrisy that had lost its hand was rising in anger.
···Now he wasn’t the problem.
The emperor bit his lip hard.
***
When I opened my heavy eyelids, I was in pitch darkness.
The brick men around me were craning their necks and sticking their tongues out at me.
I clicked my tongue, pushed them away, and examined my body. There was a hole in my abdomen. It was so well-pierced that I could see the back of it.
I didn’t feel any pain. I was already in a state of extreme pain, which was shaking my mind, so this much tickled me.
‘I could have rang.’
I muttered as I took my finger out of the hole.
The emperor was full of pride, so he fell for the ‘Are you fooling me again, emperor’ tactic surprisingly easily.
The operation worked very well, and in the end I almost decapitated the bastard.
‘hypocrisy.’
He muttered, remembering the white hand that had come up to the back of his neck.
The white hand that came up late struck my claws. If it hadn’t been for that, I would have cut off the emperor’s head.
‘I think the god over there is better?’
I muttered, looking at the white hand rolling beside me.
Oman didn’t answer. He chuckled at him. No, he tried to laugh. He was so stiff that he couldn’t laugh.
I looked up. It was a very deep hole, and I couldn’t see the bottom.
However, it was clear that something unusual was happening upstairs.
‘Is it phase 3?’
If that white hand was hypocrisy, it was clear that he would come out in earnest.
‘···There are three phases.’
I clicked my tongue and looked around. The bastard had entered phase 3, but this one was in even worse condition.
The flesh was completely melted or burned by the crimson fire, and the swollen muscles were still twitching.
Even the word worst is not enough.
It did move.
‘That’s enough.’
I stood up, putting strength into my loose legs.
He staggered for a moment and fell down awkwardly.
He gritted his teeth and pushed the ground with his forehead.
It happened somehow.
-······Why do you do that?
Oman asked in a strange voice.
I muttered the bastard’s question while straightening my wobbly legs.
– Now he will be eaten by hypocrisy. When hypocrisy comes out, all plans will fall apart. If he leaves his territory······.
‘You think it’ll be okay?’
Oman had no answer to my question.
I don’t know for sure, but there was no way a guy who was oozing hostility this deep could just sit still.
‘It’s definitely a shitty place. It’s a place you can’t get attached to even if you try to. It’s a really shitty place.’
The loose leg moved again after four hits. It creaked when I turned it. I fixed it by tapping its cheeky ankle.
I took a moment to catch my breath. Blood flowed out from the hole in my forehead.
Huff- I held my breath and took a step forward. I stumbled, but I moved-.
This was enough.
I put my hand on the nearby brick man and he started biting me while screaming. It was a really fucking place.
but-.
‘Can we just sit back and do nothing because it’s fucked up? Someone has to clean up the mess.’
If the cheap guy didn’t clean up, then the guy who smelled it had to clean up.
Isn’t this the kind of shit place that was created by people whispering that it wasn’t their own shit?
I’m already covered in shit, but I couldn’t let cute Kanna live in a place that smells like shit.
Even I, a modern man, had to step up and clean it up.
-······What a shitty reason.
Oman immediately swore. I chuckled at the swearing that was full of anger. Blood flowed out of the hole. The brick man in front of me stuck his tongue out in a daze.
– Yeah, it wasn’t mine, but it bothered me too.
Oman spoke in a strangely relieved voice.
I frowned at the unexpected words.
– Hold on tight. I don’t know what the outcome will be.
At the same time, my vision became violently distorted.
A familiar feeling passed over me.
‘You really-.’
– Because hypocrisy is my shit too.
Oman chuckled.
Then, arrogance and my memories began to mix.
***
Over there in the distance, those guys were huddled together and looking down.
Each of them was showing off their presence without any shortcomings.
As they stared at me, I felt like I was alone against the world.
Oman stared at the guy at the center.
“Arrogance-! You are the one who is interfering with our planning of the world!”
Hypocrisy. You’ve done it anyway. You’re a sweet-tongued, talented guy who seems to be trying to get a way out of it.
“God.”
Oman couldn’t help but laugh when they suddenly changed and called themselves gods.
As I laughed, the guys became more excited.
A huge pressure was pressing down on his shoulders, but Oman raised the corners of his mouth.
Even if bugs gather together, they are still bugs.
Oman rushed towards them first.
‘I thought I was bullied.’
– Ahem, you’re Aaron.
***
‘···What is this.’
Clearly, I was on my way to work. Then, all of a sudden, a white light fell down.
When I opened my eyes again, I was in the jungle.
‘Man, this is killing my muscles.’
First, I was amazed when I saw my body. My entire body was thick, like something out of a Western movie. Even my size was huge. I wondered if I was a giant.
And there too-.
‘Equal to me, or even greater.’
At first, I thought it was a dream. However, I didn’t wake up for several days. It was then that I had to accept the situation.
I had come to another world, just like in novels and movies. The reason I was sure it was another world was because I had seen a green-skinned monster a while ago. It was definitely an orc.
I tried to see the positive side as much as possible. First of all, I grew taller. My penis got bigger. I got stronger. I missed my mom.
I started hunting because I was hungry. When I broke the head of a deer with beautiful eyes, tears flowed out.
It lasted like that for quite some time.
And then-.
“···Is it a monster?”
I met a furry man in armor. He was dressed just like a medieval knight you see in books, and he had kind eyes.
It wasn’t English, but surprisingly, it worked out well. That was fortunate. The man introduced himself as Cedric.
The man asked what he was doing here.
I couldn’t explain to them that I was originally in Hyundai, but that I was on my way to work and got exposed to light and ended up here all of a sudden.
I answered that I had lost my memory. I lied that I couldn’t remember anything. The man believed me.
The man had a very good personality. He was even willing to offer his own meat.
“Your name is Aaron. Aaron.”
Cedric immediately gave me my name. It seemed to have nothing to do with my wishes. I nodded because it was easy to remember.
Cedric invited me to join his mercenary corps, saying that I had a useful physique.
As I later found out, Aaron was the name of the oldest grandmother in the village where Cedric lived.
‘You are arrogant.’
***
Oman nodded, looking at the huge task ahead.
It was a job that suited him.
It has to be at this level to be called your own karma.
Oman moved slowly, satisfied.
‘This guy’s memory is not fun. The reason he was so excited······.’
– You are Aaron!
***
I followed Captain Cedric into the mercenary company.
At first, I just did odd jobs. Unlike Cedric, the mercenary band was full of eccentric people.
I thought I had re-enlisted, so I ran around hard. Thanks to that, I was accepted very quickly.
When we got to know them, we realized they were better guys than we thought.
That’s why people had to go to the military. That way, when they fall into this world, they’ll be able to fit in well.
That day was my first time going into practice.
It was also the day that he killed his first person.
Before killing, I panicked and hesitated, but after killing, I didn’t have any other thoughts.
If I hadn’t killed it, I would have died, and people are less cute than deer.
As I was sitting by the well, washing my hands, Cedric approached me.
Cedric just sat next to me, sipping his beer without saying a word. It was burdensome.
“Aaron, do you know what’s important in a mercenary unit?”
Cedric asked an unexpected question.
“Isn’t it money?”
“No.”
Cedric answered firmly. His eyes were pure and did not match those of a mercenary. It seemed that those eyes were the reason why the mercenary force was short on money.
“Then what is it?”
“Faith, hope, and murder.”
Cedric spoke confidently. It was something I had heard a lot, but the content was strange.
“···Isn’t it faith, hope and love?”
“That’s what religious people say. Mercenaries are different. It’s about trust in our comrades, the desire to advance, and killing, which is our bread and butter. The most important of these is trust.”
It was a blatantly stupid statement, but it was strangely convincing. I guess it was because of those mismatched, kind eyes.
“Where has the love gone?”
“Romance is forbidden within the mercenary corps. If you get involved in a romantic relationship, it won’t end well.”
It seemed like it was a ban on romance between men. Cedric talked about strange theories for a long time.
Cedric continued his idle talk until I stopped washing my hands.
Perhaps it was because I was still drunk from the first murder party, but I started talking without realizing it. I was actually not from here. I was rambling on and on.
I finished speaking and thought, “Oh no,” but Cedric had a serious expression on his face. He stared at me with a worried expression before opening his mouth.
“Isn’t there a reason you came here?”
Reason. If there is a reason, does all this make sense?
I looked down at my wet hands and muttered.
‘You are arrogant.’
***
There’s still this much left!
This is truly a karma that suits this body!
Oman laughed heartily as he looked at the karma spread out before him.
‘······Hmm, it’s more serious than I expected.’
– You are Aaron!!
***
Cedric was a great man. He was exactly the kind of man I had imagined a knight to be.
Even though he was a mercenary, Cedric did not give up on justice. While other mercenaries were wondering when to strike back, Cedric was the first to reach out.
Even though I’ve seen him get stabbed in the back of the head by mercenaries several times, Cedric didn’t hesitate to lend a hand.
In that stupid sense of justice, even the conman Wayne, the gladiator Gorgai, the crazy bitch Wood, and I followed him.
Even when he crossed over to the kingdom of Byzant, Cedric did not hesitate.
The Byzantines praised him as a hero, always leading the way. A hero -. It sounded good. Wayne followed Cedric and started growing a mustache. I couldn’t grow one because I had a goatee.
Of course, it was like that-.
“Uh··· how······.”
The star that had dropped its crown trembled.
“Fucking medieval bastards.”
I clicked my tongue, wiping the blood off my sword.
Whenever you call Cedric a hero, you hit him in the back of the head like this.
The first star pleaded that he had no choice. Aren’t you the heroes of Byzant? – he lavished belated praise.
I answered him that I couldn’t do anything about it.
I picked up the fallen king’s head.
Cedric was wrong.
There was no reason for me to come here.
I was just dragged into hell.
‘You are arrogant.’
***
······There is still so much greatness left in this body, now I’m a bit worried.
Arrogance laughed in a slightly relieved voice.
‘You were acting all nice to me…’
-You are Aaron!!!
***
Kanna hummed a song while dancing strangely.
Aaron is the strongest-. Aaron is the best-.
Snowflakes that resembled me fluttered roughly.
In between, the panoramic view of Cassadic came into view.
Everyone was laughing peacefully.
– You are Aaron.
I nodded at Kanna’s bright smile.
‘You are arrogant.’
***
I opened my heavy eyelids.
A terrible stench and melted brick men greeted me. I was still in the pit.
My head was spinning. Oman, Aaron, Oman, Aaron, Aaronman, Aoman?
He hit his head with his fist.
‘I am Aaron.’
As I regained my senses, I felt a familiar sensation. A heavy texture, a slightly confused mind, a solid feeling.
When I lowered my head, the shell of the mantis was wrapped around my entire body.
I checked my left chest. The damned devil’s handprint was there again.
I coughed and laughed when I realized what he had done.
Oh man, this crazy guy pushed all his accumulated karma onto me and came back down on his own two feet.
– I am Oman. You are Aaron. I am Oman. You are Aaron······.
‘hey.’
– Ahem! I am arrogant!
I tapped the handprint because the kid seemed to have lost his mind. After a while, the kid’s voice came back.
Because arrogance and memory were intertwined, I knew well what arrogance had given up and come down to.
Arrogance threw everything he had accumulated and fell back down again to help me.
– I didn’t like it because it wasn’t mine in the first place.
Oman spoke bluntly. There was not a single grain of regret in his voice.
Oman. Whoever built it, it was well built.
– I will rebuild it with my own hands.
Oman’s voice was firm. It also seemed somewhat carefree.
‘Okay, if you have a hard time, just tell me. I’ll help you.’
– No need.
He clicked his tongue at the unanswerable question and got up from his seat.
Before karma was accumulated, it was called karma, but after it was accumulated, it was power. Because Oman had passed on all of that karma, he was filled with an indescribable power. It was so overflowing that it was flowing away and disappearing.
I had to finish it as quickly as possible.
‘It’s premature again.’
– I bet you said you didn’t like that name.
He lifted his head and clicked his tongue.
I could see white hands reaching out from the end of an endlessly long pit. I could feel the creature’s faint presence from far away.
It seemed like he was really angry because his hand was cut off.
It seemed like you had a lot of hands, but you’re getting so angry because I cut off two of them…
He was a more vulgar man than he looked.
[There must be a reason why you came here, right?]
I coughed and laughed at Cedric’s words that suddenly came to mind.
If it was to kill the evil spirit, it would have been a great reason, but I had my own reasons.
Anyway, it was time to clean up the mess.
-Did, this fucking baby.
He chuckled at the arrogance of venting his anger on Hypocrisy with pathetic insults and kicked the ground.
‘thanks.’
– Okay. It was yours originally.
The voice of Oman speaking like that was very comforting.
It wasn’t bad having a noisy head.
***
‘Hypocrisy-! Have you forgotten the contract!!’
The Emperor shouted as he pressed on his belly that was about to burst. His belly was as swollen as that of a pregnant woman.
As is the case with gods, there was no answer.
It just kept spewing out unbearable hostility.
The emperor clenched his teeth and continued to press on his stomach, which was swollen to the point of almost bursting.
The problem was that he exceeded the Emperor’s expectations. He could not know how that was possible, but he was able to accept arrogance within the realm of hypocrisy and even nearly decapitate the Emperor.
I finally cut off the hand of hypocrisy.
It was a hypocrisy that showed an obsessive obsession with arrogance, and it was impossible to calm him down because he had lost his hand.
‘If you come out, everything we’ve built so far will collapse! Hypocrisy! Just hold on a little longer!’
If hypocrisy comes out, he won’t stop at just drinking blood. It was clear that everything he had worked for up to this point would go down the drain.
‘Can’t the author called God control even one emotion? Think of all the years we have endured, hypocrisy!’
It was no use swearing inwardly. All he could do was block it. This was possible because the emperor had been in the presence of God for so many years.
Just then, something jumped up in front.
It was him. The crimson fire surrounding him had now grown so large that he appeared to be one big lump.
But unlike before, this creature was wearing a shell covering its entire body. It seemed as if the shell was protecting it from the dark red fire.
The emperor was astonished when he saw him.
‘Arrogance has come down again? Why on earth-.’
They were called gods, but ever since their mother disappeared, this place has been hell to them.
Most of them failed to overcome their own karma and became monsters or demons.
For those who were rejected by the world, this place was a terrible hell from which they could not escape, as their karma increased in real time whenever they were here.
That is why the top meant something different to the gods. To them, the top was the true heaven, the end of eternal suffering, and their home.
It wasn’t for nothing that hypocrisy spent all these years preparing to rise to the top.
But you gave that up and came down yourself?
Where is the god who does such crazy things?
Even though I saw it with my own eyes, I couldn’t believe it.
At that moment, the bastard stared at the emperor.
The emperor felt dizzy at the corners of his lips going up.
“Hey, hypocrisy.”
The bastard’s voice was peculiar. It was similar to the one before, but strangely, it felt like something was overlapping.
Gray smoke billowed from its snout.
Snap. The hypocrisy became quiet at the sound of his voice.
The emperor stared blankly at the bastard.
I don’t understand the situation right now.
“It’s been a while, you piece of shit.”
The hypocrisy that heard him grew stronger.
The Emperor felt his very being crushed and torn apart. Hypocrisy was not even thinking of the Emperor.
The emperor gritted his teeth. After serving you, feeding you, and raising you for so many years, how could he be receiving such treatment······.
However, the emperor expected that hypocrisy would be like this.
The emperor hurriedly searched for the most intact one among those lying around.
And he gave rise to divine power. This divine power was the reason why the Emperor was able to maintain his position from the beginning of the empire until now.
Originally, he had been paying close attention to his children, but now he was pressed for time. He couldn’t take care of this or that.
It was a gamble, as my body was unstable, but I was barely able to display my divine power because Hyeseon was fully utilizing my strength.
Luckily, I was able to transfer my body to one of the rolling humans.
“Ugh·········.”
I screamed in pain as I felt it for the first time in a long time. Even though I chose the most healthy ones, the condition was terrible. I was overcome by hunger and thirst.
The Emperor moved desperately to survive, screaming. His drool flowed in pain, but he did not stop.
At that time, a fierce battle broke out in the rear.
‘Hypocrite, by all means-.’
Hypocrisy was powering the body that had been fed to the devil for so many years.
‘···It’s the end.’
Since you have moved a body that is not yet ready, even if you win, Hypocrisy will never be able to leave the capital.
How could the author, God, do such a stupid thing because he couldn’t control his anger?
The emperor, having made his decision, ran diligently to survive. Since he still had divine powers left, he was able to recover his body to some extent.
‘You can start over again.’
The emperor muttered as he looked at his wretched body. At this rate, I should have at least ten years left to live.
It was just a matter of finding the token inside, choosing a new demon, and then growing stronger again.
If the hypocrisy disappears, the aura will be blocked. If you just get the token in time, you can set it up again.
I was planning to go to the note that I had prepared separately. The emperor was a man of many thoughts, so he had prepared a note separately in case something unexpected happened. If I collect the certificate there, I will be able to start anew.
Since he was an emperor who had already established an empire once, he was confident that he could establish one again.
Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang! A loud noise erupted from behind. The startled emperor ran diligently.
The walls had all collapsed. Across from them, I could see soldiers and rebels standing around in a daze. They were absorbed in the battle of the gods.
First of all, the emperor staggered as he moved, as his priority was to avoid the situation.
It was easy because hypocrisy was out of control and there were quite a few people in a similar state. Everyone’s eyes were also focused on the battle of the gods taking place behind them.
Plans were quickly running through the Emperor’s mind. As he walked diligently, trying to figure out the cause of this failure and planning things to improve it-.
“Hey, stop right there.”
At that moment, someone called the emperor.
When I turned my head towards him, I saw a mean-looking man swinging a dagger.
The bastard narrowed his eyes and looked the emperor up and down. The emperor swallowed at those sharp eyes.
Did he recognize himself? No, that couldn’t be possible. He had lost most of his divine powers. There was no way he could recognize himself.
Judging by his attire, he was a rebel.
