Only one wish (9)

Laniakea’s holy power engulfs the emperor.

As if preparing a shot for conversion, the overwhelming holy power burned the emperor’s clothes and skin with heat.

“Kuh…”

It was an attack that ignorantly poured enormous holy power, but the effect was certain.

The emperor, who lost his balance and fell, hurriedly turned his gaze to the other side of the sky.

‘That’s…’

A trail of light stretching up into the sky.

The emperor’s red eyes closely examined the trajectory’s identity.

‘Am I trying to cross the world line?’

I don’t know what purpose the spell was created for.

This was Kang Yu-jin’s move that even the emperor couldn’t predict, so it was impossible to figure out what the spell was for.

However, it was clear that nothing good would come of leaving it alone.

‘I have to break it.’

Crossing the world line itself is not normal.

Because it was considered impossible for one world line to interfere with another world line, unless it was a singularity.

However, Kang Yu-jin seemed to have found a way through some means, and a technique so gigantic that it could cross the world line could never benefit the emperor.

“…If you thought I’d just watch it, you’d be mistaken.”

He stretched out his hand toward the sky.

It was an intention to grab hold of the expanding light and crush it.

“It can’t be like that.”

Quickly closing the distance, Laniakea threw herself towards the boundary of the inner dimension, clasping her whole body with holy power, along with his hands.

It was the exact opposite of the earlier attempt to block access.

It was a ulterior motive to prevent him from interfering with the ceremony.

“Are you going to take me to the surface. Foolish.”

“Well, you’ll find out about that by now.”

She pushed the emperor, who did not resist much, toward the ground.

Anyway, he must have thought that it would be enough to reach the ground and kill Kang Yu-jin, who would be the caster of the spell.

Then, now, when there is no resistance, is the best time to attack.

─Now, Eugene-sama!

Passing through the wall of the inner dimension, the distant earth begins to fill my eyes.

A small light shimmered far below as they crossed through the dense atmosphere and fell to the vast ground.

“Well···!?”

One trajectory that overcomes gravity and approaches quickly.

It was a deadly bullet filled with holy power.

The bullet fired by Yujin Kang from the ground crossed the air and hit the emperor directly in the chest.

Tuquaang—!

“Cheuk!”

For the first time, his new model was greatly shaken.

It was a blow struck in a completely defenseless state without any defense.

No matter how much the emperor was in his body state, there was no damage.

“This… son of a bitch…!”

Catching him as he wriggles, Laniakea accelerates.

The rubbed atmosphere burns red and forms a long tail, and the far-off ground reaches right in front of you.

Then, Laniakea spread her wings as she tossed the captured Emperor to the ground.

Leaving behind Laniakea, which made a sudden stop, the new model of the emperor crashed into the ground.

Kwaaang—!!

Next to the rising dust as if an artillery shell had exploded, Laniakea staggered down and landed on the ground.

Yujin Kang, who was nearby, hurriedly helped her.

“You worked hard.”

“No… I was just doing my job.”

Smiling with a tired face, she leaned against Kang Yoo-jin’s arms.

It’s a strange thing.

Just by leaning on him, it felt like all the hard work was rewarded.

In my heart, I wanted to stay like this for several hours, but unfortunately I didn’t have time for that right now.

“…The emperor tried to break the spell, so I had no choice but to drop it into my dimension. I’m sorry.”

“No. Good job.”

It’s a bigger deal to let them touch the spell as it is.

It was more important now not to give the emperor time to interfere with the ceremony.

“… trivial things… you’re bothering me to the point of getting tired of it.”

The demonic energy overflows.

With a gloomy voice, the forest where the emperor fell instantly burned with black flames.

From the place that turned to ashes in an instant, red eyes stared at them.

“That’s… the emperor…”

“Ugh…”

Everyone who had gathered had a clear expression of fear.

not a crowd

Even though they saw the emperor for the first time, they were not unaware of his notoriety.

As soon as he landed on the ground, the giant monster bowed his head, and the black sky now looked dark red due to the demonic energy that had crossed the threshold.

It is truly the embodiment of the end.

It was destruction in human form.

“There’s no need to be scared.”

At that moment when everyone’s will to fight was shattered, there was the only one who stepped forward.

As usual, a calm voice and a firm figure that does not shake.

Yujin Kang stood in front of them as always.

“All you have to do is take care of that giant monster like before.”

Even if I told him to fight the emperor anyway, he wouldn’t be able to fight properly.

It would be fortunate if he did not become an enemy because he was mentally possessed.

His goal is to hold out until the ‘world line interference technique’ is completed.

It won’t take very long, and in the meantime, the presence of other people will only get in the way.

“Professor Skadi. I want you to lead the others and deal with that giant monster.”

“Then… the emperor?”

To those words, Yujin Kang replied by loading the revolver.

“Leave the Emperor to me.”

There was no restraint in his voice, as if he had intended this from the beginning.

Dealing with the emperor alone, Laniakea looked at him and said, unable to erase her worries.

“As expected, if I help…”

“You’ve already done a lot.”

Looking at his constellation, he finally took off his mask and said.

he was laughing

“The rest, you can leave it to your apostle.”

“·······.”

Laniakea just lowered her head.

Having said that, I couldn’t help but let it go.

Because he always made promises he could keep.

Again, she chose to trust him.

“···you.”

Skadi did not speak at length.

He just whispered with a stiff face, holding his hand tightly with his wagging tail.

“I will definitely win.”

“Yes.”

To win against the emperor is a very difficult order, but he nodded his head coolly.

If you don’t win anyway, you die.

He had no thoughts of wanting to die yet, so there was only one option from the start.

They fall back, and only the emperor and Kang Yu-jin are left in the charred forest clearing.

They had the same soul, but had to live different histories, they just silently looked into each other’s eyes.

“Thank you for waiting.”

“It was nothing.”

The emperor laughed at Kang Yu-jin, who was confronting him.

“You fight alone with me… What kind of confidence do you have? Do you think you can win?”

“I don’t know. You have to try to know.”

“I see. You’re the one who’s always trying to win.”

The Emperor laughed.

“The light in the sky. I don’t know what it is, but when it’s finished, they’ll think it’s worth reversing the situation. Until then, it’s a ploy to delay time.”

Yujin Kang was speechless.

It was an inference that anyone could make anyway.

It would be harder to come to this point and think that such a shallow ulterior motive would not go unnoticed.

“I never thought I’d say something like this to you… but it’s so obvious.”

“·······.”

The emperor said without hesitation.

“Even if it’s completed, it’s enough if we destroy it together. If you made it, it’ll be easy for me to break it.”

Because he is the emperor, and the emperor is him.

The emperor’s voice was confident because he knew everything about the individuality of what he made.

“I won’t kill you first. It’s too precious to do that.”

He took off his mask and laughed.

While letting out a grim smile, he held a revolver that glowed in the color of ink in his hand.

“I’ll kill everyone here, and you will be the last to die. Yes… that would be good.”

Yujin Kang frowned.

Killing all the precious people, and making everyone watch it.

It was a cruel idea that he would not have done.

It was closer to the idea of a witch than a human, and it was a way of thinking that was very foreign to his essence.

“…That’s where we diverge.”

Even if they were the same person, they lived different histories in the end, so they could not help but be essentially different people.

They always talked about the sameness, but in the end, in the end, the two were their own existence.

Roaring—

Kang Yoo-jin’s whole body was infested with mana and holy power.

The two circles surrounding the revolver pulsated and began to push the surrounding demons away in an instant.

The Emperor’s face is calm.

It’s the feet of the leisure to watch how you do.

‘It’s nothing strange.’

It is true that with the power he now possesses, he cannot greatly oppose the emperor.

It is said that he gained the power of a constellation level, but he cannot compete with the emperor who holds and shakes all dimensions.

It’s the so-called weight difference.

However, he has always overcome such differences.

Even when I was a normal person.

Even when I was a Hunter.

And, even now.

So, nothing changes.

uuu—

Mind control begins to expand and amplify.

I can’t afford to be safe anymore.

From now on, it’s time to risk everything.

Mind Control Level 5, 「Conquest」

“… First of all, let’s start with Diablo.”

The seething energy soon took the dragon’s shadow.

Before long, the new models of the two men who released their powers were launched.

*

The wires are full of chaos.

Resurrection of the Witchbeast that was thought to have been killed.

And that gigantic thing created by the monsters that merged into one.

In the crucible of chaos, the trio looked blankly up at the sky.

“Guys. Hey? How am I supposed to defeat that thing?”

“Well, well…”

Encia let out a laugh, and Cynthia let out a gruff voice.

No matter how you look at it, the true boss that comes after the boss is too fraudulent.

“Look over there.”

At that time, Estelle pointed to one side of the sky.

Seeing a ray of light across the dark sky, the girls blinked.

“It’s started.”

Solid lines of faint light shining in the dark.

It seemed to symbolize the only shining hope in this hopeless situation.

Seeing that light, the three men managed their confused hearts and raised their fighting spirit again.

“I’m holding out for the professor! I can do it!”

“yes···!”

ugh-

At the time when they burned their fighting spirit, communication flew into the sympathetic nervous system that was connected.

The sender is none other than Adeline.

It was an urgent message from Helios.

─Can you hear me? I wish you a reply!

-What’s going on?

It was Estelle who answered.

Even though she was staring blankly at the beasts, her reaction was immediate.

—Helios has been broken through by the Emperor! Yujin Kang is currently facing off 1:1! Urgent assistance needed!

“······!”

People’s shoulders trembled at the unexpected sad news.

Helios is pierced.

It was no different from saying that Adeline, who maintained this sympathetic nervous system, and Kang Yu-jin, who led the entire war, were in danger.

“this···.”

It was an urgent call, but people couldn’t leave their seats easily.

It was not only difficult to block this place, but also because they did not have the strength to deal with the emperor.

Estelle’s expression shook as she accepted Adeline’s communication.

“·······.”

“·······.”

Seeing her confused, Ensia and Cynthia faced each other.

Then he whispered in a low voice.

“Shinnie. Do you think the same as me?”

“Yeah… Ensi is like that too…”

The idea that friends resemble each other is also similar.

Estelle patted the shoulders as the two grinned.

“···what’s the matter?”

“You go, Estelle.”

“uh···?”

Estelle became an unusually bewildered face.

As their always calm faces became blank, the two of them giggled at a sight that is not often seen.

“You’re the only one who can help Professor…”

“Leave this to us!”

The two girls were confident.

She showed strong aspirations that she would do something, but Estelle was uneasy.

She is one of the few people with Constellation-level powers here.

If she falls out, it won’t be easy to fill the power void.

“That guy is bigger than before, so it’s easier to hit the attack. It means you don’t have to move with pinpoint!”

“And… the little ones I can stop…”

“Yes! We can do it!”

She shouted confidently, but Estelle was not ignorant.

That they’re talking too much now.

However, they decided to let Estelle go anyway.

They were just as worried about Yujin Kang as Estelle was, and Estelle was the only one here who could help.

Estelle squeezed her chest, which was both touching and thrilling.

“you···.”

And at just the right time, Terreon’s voice reached her.

─Go away.

─Grandpa…?

—Make the choice you want, Estelle.

It was a word that denied the family, the glory, everything that had been emphasized so far.

Renoir would have objected, but Tereon did not.

He wanted his granddaughter to throw off her bridle and choose her own path.

─···Thank you.

A smiling Estelle met the eyes of the two people beside her.

“I will be back.”

“go for it!”

“cheer up···!”

Estelle raised her holy power and soared into the sky.

‘I’ll go.’

Our destination is Helios.

Her eyes were bright as she gazed at the distant crossroads of dimensions.
