Chapter 291

"Kyaa, it's Lord Raphael of Healing from the Four Great Archangels!"

Liera screamed like a highschool girl that just met the male idol she admired. Yu IlHan piled around 10 hostility points against this Archangel and asked Liera in a grumbling voice.

"Is that guy strong?"

"In healing, he's probably superior to Na YuNa. I heard that he's at a level where he can virtually reanimate anyone as long as they aren't dead. As for physical might...... I don't know. I heard he's stronger than most 7th class beings, but I don't know by how much exactly."

Overwhelming the holy maiden Na YuNa in healing and being stronger than the majority of 7th class beings? How OP was that! If this guy had any common sense, he should've selected one path and specialized in it!

Yu IlHan, who didn't think about himself when thinking that, shamelessly grumbled like that and piled yet another 10 hostility points into the book. Liera looked at such Yu IlHan with worried eyes.

"IlHan, is Lord Raphael a traitor too......?"

"No, it's not that. Rather, I wish he was one so I can beat him up without any worries......."

"Why!?"

"I don't like his uselessly handsome and kind-looking face. Dammit."

"Kyaaaak. What are you doing!"

Yu IlHan pondered whether he should show himself or not, but he eventually just threw additional flaming spears to kill more 5th class traitors. When traitors died, Daiel became hurried and voiced out.

[Lord Rapahel. We need to capture him! Please use your powers and......!]

[But Daiel, my thoughts are a little different.]

Raphael wasn't such an easy man.

[Killing angels and make them look like they were traitors? That is impossible. Only the one that is above Heaven. Only he would be able to do that and no one else.]

[B...... but.......]

[In my opinion, this little daredevil indeed knows the method of differentiating the traitors and is killing them.]

[Why, and how!]

Raphael smiled.

[I do not know the reason. I can only predict that this being has tremendous hostility towards the Army of Brilliant Light. But how, I do know. It is possible for anyone that has the qualifications to become a leader of a faction. So, it is either one of them or.......]

[That cannot be possible!]

[Yes. So...... it is a newly qualified being.]

[That is even more impossible!]

[Well then. Shall we find out?]

When Raphael flicked his finger after saying that, a wave of light spread around from him. Even though that magic was intended for detection purposes, Yu IlHan simply ignored it and threw additional 8 spears to kill 8 traitors.

"Noooooooooo!"

"Stay still, Liera. We won't get discovered."

[Liera-noona you're being loud.]

Yu IlHan's presence was not detected. In fact, the heads and wings of the traitors were all being sliced apart even as the magic was deployed, as if to tease the caster.

[......Hm.]

[Lord Raphael?]

However, Raphael instead made an expression that seemed to relay that the result was satisfactory.

[Good, there's no way he'll be detected with my abilities alone.]

[It's impossible even with Lord Raphael's abilities? Then we have to flip this entire world over to-]

[Calm down, Daiel. If you are to become an Archangel, you need to have the attitude and qualification that goes with it, don't you think?]

[But even so!]

Even right now, angels were crying out loud and the blood of traitors scattered everywhere. How could he possibly calm down? Just as Daiel was about to ask back, Raphael spoke with a very calm expression while grabbing him.

[Didn't I say so? No one other than the LORD can make a perfect angel into a traitor. Even Satan cannot taint the blood of those that do not have darkness in their hearts. Well, then.]

[.......]

[I do not know his or her intention, but this means that what he or she is doing does not damage the Heaven's Army at all. I would even extend a hand to help him.]

[Lord Raphael!]

[Hahahaha.]

Raphael calmly laughed even while he watched angel after angel being killed by flaming spears. He looked quite frightening, even considering that he knew that the ones being killed were traitors.

[I can't even figure out where he's throwing those from. I can even feel that those flames are on par with Lord Michael's. So mysterious. Is that the new transcender? Quite interesting.]

[Lord Raphael. We cannot let this be!]

[Wait, Daiel.]

Raphael's eyes became frightening.

[I said wait. To all the angels here, you shall not move, wait.]

[......Understood.]

There were no angels in Feira that dared to go against Raphael's orders. Since dying to the flaming spear and being killed by Raphael's rage was the same thing, the traitors hidden amongst the angels all panicked on the spot before being killed.

[Fuu, hahahaha.]

[L, Lord Raphael.......]

Viciousness in Raphael's smile became thicker and it seemed as if he was saying – 'Though I expected this, there are a lot of these bastards'. One of the Four Great Archangels on one side, and flaming spears on the other! To the traitors, this was hell.

[......Kugh!]

[I cannot die here!]

The ones that judged that they couldn't keep this up finally acted. The ones that had confidence in their power since they were 6th class – although it was unknown how they exchanged signals, the 32 6th class traitors all unfolded their wings and activated group warp towards another world!

[We will become the wings of Satan!]

[Foolish hypocrites. We can finally be truthful to our desires!]

[......Oho, so shamelessly appearing now, are we? Well, then, p newly ascended transcender. What will you do?]

Although he was not aware of Yu IlHan's presence, Raphael believed that he was there and voiced out to him. Yu IlHan snorted and made a single spear. Then, he resonated with Yumir to bring out the energy of dragons before imbuing all of his power into the tip of his spear. This did not look like he was going to attack many people at once.

"IlHan, their magic! You'll miss them if you don't activate Falling Down now!"

"I know, but if I try to kill them, then I'll miss the big one."

"So vicious......."

In the first place, Yu IlHan's aim was Daiel. That shameless guy that acted calm on the surface but was panicking and rapidly rolling his head on the inside from the moment Raphael appeared! The same guy that made the expression that 'now's the chance!' after looking at the group of 6th class angels acting!

[......Hm?]

Raphael tilted his head. He realized that Yu IlHan wasn't making any big movements even when the traitors had come out and were blatantly activating Warp.

Did he go back already? Or was he scared of fighting against 6th class beings? Or was he wary of Raphael's presence?

Raphael thought about why Yu IlHan wasn't acting and eventually came to conclusion. It was a very surprising, and more absurd, thinking, but that had the most persuasive power out of all his hypotheses.

So, he raised his hand before it was too late.

[Very interesting...... and foolish too. But.]

[Lord Raphael?]

[I'll play around with you for once!]

Raphael's mana rippled. The next moment, the mana that composed the entirety of Feira submitted to his command and created a violent shockwave.

That was enough. All the magic that the traitors were about to use were cancelled and their mana spiraled out of control.

[Khak!?]

[M, mana is backlashing against us...... O, Lord Satan, please save us!]

[How, can this be.......]

The results of a single gesture were very devastating. It was the price for looking down on the power of one of the Four Great Archangels, as well as the one that commanded the power of the world.

The hole to escape the world had been closed, and the wings of those that revealed their affinity were dyed in black. There was no path of escape for them now.

[Well, then. I can finally see who the traitors are now.]

Raphael made a cold smile and created a sword with the mana in Feira. The sword, containing a thick power of wind also had slight flames in it as well. The traitors all gave up and despaired.

[Raphael, you clown acting on the grave of the dead God!]

[No matter how hard you try to hide it! We all know! The Great One has enlightened us!]

[Hah, they're properly rotten alright.]

[Y, you evil being!]

[How dare you taint his glorified name with your dirty mouth!]

The non-traitor 6th class angels also participated in the fight and the world became a mess in an instant. Unbefitting of the name of 'Healing' in his name, Raphael scattered his murderous intent, and 6th class fallen angels went against him. The other high angels also blocked their paths!

Only two people were waiting for this moment.

[Fuu.]

Daiel thought. Although he was unaware whether the intruder could discern his identity or not, this being should not be able to do anything against him with just a surprise attack alone. In fact, if his identity was revealed because of that, Raphael would be the more dangerous enemy. If he was to survive this place, the one he had to look out for was not the intruder but Raphael!

'The moment I attack Raphael; I will have to give up my position as an angel. So, using the mana of the world is out of the question. Then, this will be my only opportunity now that Raphael is using that mana to kill those trash.'

He would attack with all his power to create an opening. Even though Raphael was of a higher league than him, he would not come out unscathed after his attack. The mana at his disposal will disperse, and at least he would be able to escape through the blocked path!

'If possible, I want to discover and execute this intruder, but I never knew even Raphael would show such movements. Was there Gabriel's prophecy or something......? I guess I can't help it. I'll just......!'

And at that point, the other one that waited for this moment struck his spear into his body.

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical.......]

[Kahagh!?]

"Huoooooooh!"

Yu IlHan, in sync with Yumir, had used 12-overlaid strikes of the Spear of Untraceable Trajectory with all his might!


Chapter 292

Thick ash-colored blood scattered in the air. This was the moment when Daiel decided to attack Raphael, and altered his own records by abiding the orders of Satan.

The support from the world he could receive as a member of the Heaven's Army was completely cut off, and the moment his tainted self was revealed, was the moment Yu IlHan decided to act.

[Kugh, ha......!]

With twelve strikes from the Spear of Untraceable Trajectory stacked on top of each other onto a single point, it created a gigantic hole on Daiel's abdomen. The blood that was turning black scattered everywhere, while flesh, bone fragments, as well as black and white feathers flew about.

"Hi! It hurts, doesn't it?"

[Hiik! Khih!]

Yu IlHan had aimed for both the heart and the shoulder blades, the most crucial parts of angels and fallen angels alike. Although Daiel had protected them using mana the moment he detected the attack, his shoulder blades were not completely destroyed. However, not only was his heart completely obliterated, one pair of wings was completely severed.

That was a fatal wound that would have cost him his life if he did not escape and treat himself immediately. If he were in a normal state, he wouldn't be so injured, but Yu IlHan had attacked the moment he was transforming from an angel into a fallen angel, when his resistance was lowered for a brief moment.

He couldn't have done this without the wits and technique to throw his bag on an empty seat on the morning bus to get it.

[You are!?]

"Fuuu."

[Fuuu.]

A red breath of fire leaked from Yu IlHan's lips when he approached him close enough to attack with his spear.

Daiel abruptly widened his eyes and attempted to strike back, but at that point, Yu IlHan had already activated Falling Down and the soulflame chains were binding his entire body. Was there any more perfect surprise attack than this? Right now, the only thing that was allowed to Daiel was to tremble in fear.

"Hey, you were more wary towards Raphael than me, weren't you?"

Yu IlHan twisted his lips into a smirk as if he understood all that Daiel was thinking. Right now, a golden streak appeared on his burning-red eyes. Those golden streaks were similar if not identical to vertical reptilian pupils!

"You were doomed from that moment onwards."

[Khaaaaaak!?]

Daiel had realized his mistake and struggled to escape from Yu IlHan, but all of his attempts were followed by failure.

Falling Down had been empowered by entire two leagues through the Flamesoul Dragon Body. Even 7th class Archangels would have their league lowered, and he would be able to restrain them so that they couldn't move an inch!

[Yu IlHan, human...... a lower existence, dares to.......]

"That's an artifact, eh?"

He did expect that 7th class Archangels wouldn't walk around with nothing prepared. Yu IlHan discovered a flashing current of mana in Daiel's bosom and immediately covered it in flames. This was similar to when he covered his allies in flames to enhance their abilities and magic. The flames completely wrapped around the artifact and glowed. However, the results were devastating.

[The skill, Falling Down, has become level 72.]

[......What?]

He made a dumbfounded voice. Yu IlHan couldn't care less about what the artifact's effect was. It would not activate after all.

[You, wha? How, you?]

"You don't expect me to answer, do you?"

Daiel trembled. Yu IlHan made a smirk at him, before striking at his wound with a flaming spear and twisting it while additionally activating the Great Cosmos-severing Spear. The trajectory that came from the power of dragons, and was realized through flames, burned brighter than when Spiera used it during her life and drew a single line.

[Critical Hit]

Another splash of blood. The artifact that was silent under the cover of flames was also snapped in half. It seemed like an artifact that gave the user tremendous healing ability monetarily and randomly teleport the user, but that didn't matter now.

Yu IlHan smiled.

"Bye."

[Wait, human! No, the new transcender! Lord Satan has-]

His attitude instantly changed, but this was very, very common. Yu IlHan swept his spear without hesitation. Tens of additional flaming spears that came out from the Flamesoul Dragon body struck all parts of Daiel's body according to his trajectory.

And that was the end.

[You have earned experience.]

[You have earned the record of Lv 537 Daiel.]

[The skill, Record, has become level 93.]

Yu IlHan straightened his body as he collected Daiel's corpse. Falling Down was dispelled, and all mana was taken back into him and disappeared without a trace. The golden reptilian vertical pupils also disappeared as well.

Liera, who was prepared for the worst even until the battle ended, also finally heaved a sigh of relief and took back her spear.

[My god, it ended just like that.......]

Raphael became flabbergasted after seeing Yu IlHan in action, as he was wary against Daiel's movements even while killing the remaining 6th class traitors. Even he could not attack so explosively like Yu IlHan despite being one of the Four Great Archangels.

What if Yu IlHan had attacked him instead? He could not guarantee his safety either. Though, he wouldn't so easily be killed with his overwhelming healing capabilities.

[Transcender...... as expected, quite the qualified human. Though, you are no longer a human either.]

"You know?"

Yu IlHan asked the flabbergasted Raphael.

"Can I eat them if you aren't going to?"

The ones Yu IlHan pointed towards with this spear were of course the surviving traitors. Raphael shook his head with an awkward expression.

[......No, we shall take care of it. The execution of traitors is the mission of us Heaven's Army, so please leave it to us.]

"Whatever."

Seeing Yu IlHan's laid back attitude, Raphael and the angels clenched their teeth and moved fast. However, the traitors that had to go against them were already powerless. Their hopes were mercilessly crushed when they saw Daiel being slain by Yu IlHan.

[L, Lord Daiel died so vainly.......]

[We cannot survive. We, cannot.......]

[Is this, the end of a traitor? Was I really just a foolish maggot? Aaah, God, just what have I.......]

Raphael and the other angels felt very awkward even while taking care of the traitors since they felt like they were picking dead flowers. In the meanwhile, Yu IlHan recovered his mana and was undergoing maintenance on his equipment. Liera asked him in confusion.

"I thought you'd act too."

"Well, yeah. It seems like that side has a lot to talk to me about. I can't just go against them when we might be cooperating for quite a while."

Yu IlHan was correct. After the series of battles where both the attacker and the attacked felt awkward, Raphael had voiced out to him after collecting the bodies of all traitors.

[It's the first time that we have met, no? I am Raphael, one of the Four Great Archangels of the Heaven's Army.]

"I'm Yu IlHan from Earth."

[It was you that assaulted the worlds that Heaven was in possession of and killed the angels, stealing the world in the process, correct?]

"Yes."

The angels that came back from battle were enraged at Yu IlHan's acknowledgement, but Raphael calmed them down by putting his hand up. Raphael was treating Yu IlHan not as any random individual, but as a leader of a faction.

It was very common for factions to steal each other's worlds. It wasn't such a rare occurrence for enemies that fought moments ago to shake hands the next.

[I appreciate that you admit it so openly. Then, why did you switch to hunting traitors?]

"Would you guys believe it if I divulged the reason?"

[No, we probably would not.]

Said Raphael with a smile. When Yu IlHan snorted at that answer, he took out words that Yu IlHan had expected to a certain extent.

[I request an alliance. Whatever motives you have for moving, we are very urgent in executing traitors. I will guide you to any world under the Heaven's Army so come with me.]

[Lord Raphael!]

[This cannot be!]

[Everyone be quiet. You should have seen this individual's ability on discerning and killing traitors, no? We need his help right now. Please refrain from treating him as a simple human and do not be rude to him.]

When he ordered the angels with a cold voice, they all nodded unwillingly and stepped back. Yu IlHan replied to Raphael after watching them in curiosity for a moment.

"In my knowledge, you guys should be busy right now too. Do you, one of the Four Great Archangels, have the time to act with me like this?"

[It is precisely because we are busy that executing the traitors is important.]

Raphael's eyes flashed mysteriously.

[It will be very agonizing if traitors rampage in the upcoming final war.]

"Final war? That sounds very interesting, but in any case......."

Yu IlHan thought for a moment about what he could request from the Heaven's Army for this. However, he eventually just shook his head.

He was planning to wipe out the traitors of Heaven's Army soon enough anyway. It wasn't like he was going to stop just because the Heaven's Army decided to not give him anything, and right now, none of the treasures in possession of the Heaven's Army interested him that much.

"Good, let's do this then."

[I'm glad that we got through this quickly. Please take care of me. Oh, and also, little dragon and Liera, I will be in your care as well.]

Raphael offered to shake hands first. Yu IlHan grabbed his hand without hesitation. Yumir snorted and Liera nearly screamed, but he ignored them.

[I predict that you know this already, but the scale of the Heaven's Army is vast. It will take a lot of time.]

"Don't worry about that and just guide me along. Oh, I gave you the traitors just now, but that won't happen anymore. I'll be the one killing them so you guys just catch the runaways. If you reject this, then I will not comply."

[Though I did hear about it, you are very vicious.]

Raphael made a bitter smile and turned around to the other angels.

[Concentrate on protecting Feira. Report immediately if anything happens.]

[Understood!]

[Lord Raphael, that human...... are you real-]

[Concentrate on your work.]

Raphael split from the angels and accompanied Yu IlHan. Liera looked at Yu IlHan with a worried gaze seeing a gate to another world under Heaven opening up, but Yu IlHan only laughed and stroked her head.

He knew what she was worried about. It was probably because there was no way the loyal Raphael will see Yu IlHan in a good light.

There was no way Yu IlHan was unaware of this. Didn't he already hear before that Heaven will not tolerate another transcender?

However, Raphael should also be aware that Yu IlHan was wary against him. He probably had other tricks up his sleeve. That was why it was interesting.

Yu IlHan checked his hand that shook hands with Rapahel and laughed.

'The Great Archangel that represent God, and the one that received the most of his power....... I finally found him.'

Yu IlHan's eyes glistened. A flash of green text appeared on his retina.

[The skill, Record has become level 95.]

'The final piece necessary to become a higher existence, and to become the Fifth.'

Just who would swallow the other up? Yu IlHan smirked his lips in a manner much more evil than the one Raphael had made and threw his body into the gate.


Chapter 293

[Lord Raphael, this is really unjust. We really aren't traitors!]

[Everyone that we've encountered until now seemed to have said the same thing. But Vera, none of them ended up being innocent.]

[Aah, he is deceiving you! How can you listen to the words of a mere human!]

The traitors cried out in injustice and Raphael coldly rejected them. This had happened many times already and Yu IlHan swung his spear with a yawn. Vera's head flew as he was busy crying about the great injustice towards Raphael, scattering grey blood into the air.

[The skill, Record, has become level 98.]

[The skill, Great Cosmos-severing Spear, has become level 99.]

Not only Vera, Yu IlHan killed many traitors while charging on Yumir's back. Grey blood colored the world. Raphael waved his hand even in this mess to prevent any blood from tainting him, and stared at Yu IlHan.

[We were having a conversation?]

"How was that a conversation? It was just him desperately pleading for his life."

The biggest problem was that pleading will not overturn the judgement. Yu IlHan snorted and sucked the corpses of the traitors into his inventory. Raphael made an awkward expression while watching him do that.

[You are very adept at manipulating interspace.]

"Thanks to a certain someone."

[That audacity of yours is really.......]

Raphael shook his hand as if he was fed up with him. The angels all gathered in front of him

[Traitors have disappeared. Guard this world with all your power for Heaven, and the sole LORD.]

[Understood, Lord Raphael!]

[We shall comply!]

The mana that heeded Raphael's commands all returned to their original places in the world. He had closed all the paths connecting to other worlds the moment they arrived and now, he finally loosened the restriction.

[Well, then, Yu IlHan. We have a slight problem now.]

"What, it's over already?"

Yu IlHan made an expression like a little child that found an empty bag of cookies. Raphael found that absurd. In the past two weeks they had been to over 500 worlds, and Yu IlHan had killed over ten thousand traitors. No one should have killed so many higher existences in such a short time, but what was he so upset about!

[This is the end of the many worlds under our charge. No matter how large Heaven is, the number of higher worlds are limited after all.]

"Then does the alliance end here? It was fun working with you."

[However, you haven't met all the angels yet.]

Raphael's eyes shined.

[You should be aware that many angels are participating in a war against other factions.]

"You are focusing on finishing off the Army of Brilliant Light, aren't you?"

[Indeed. That was also why we had to consolidate our foundation. But what if there were traitors among the ones participating in battle? And what if that angel was a 7th class?]

"Things will horribly go wrong?"

[Correct. So now, we'll be going to them. The method will stay the same. You just need to kill the traitors.]

"Even while angels and fallen angels are fighting it out?"

[Precisely.]

Yu IlHan replied with a smile.

"That sounds very interesting."

[Quite the intriguing being you are. Then we shall go immediately.]

Raphael opened a gate. Liera couldn't hide her worry and grabbed Yu IlHan's shoulders.

"I think you've pushed yourself until now, IlHan. Do you really need to do any more than this?"

"Yeah. Since I started this, I'll see this through to the end."

Although he replied in a light tone to Liera, countless thoughts were being generated and discarded in Yu IlHan's head. What he was about to encounter will be what Raphael wanted, and Raphael definitely would have set some sort of trap ahead.

However, if he didn't get caught by it, he would have to wander for a long time to become a higher existence since he would be letting go of the thread that he had just found. Yu IlHan didn't like waiting around aimlessly.

"Liera, go back to the others. This may become a little dangerous from now on."

Because the other angels may try to use her – he didn't say that to her, but Liera understood plenty about what he was trying to say.

"Okay. You'll go too, right?"

"No, my skill level rose far enough to just send another person. So I'll go there after this is over."

"......When did it become like that?"

"Just go ahead and wait for mel."

"Okay."

Yu IlHan gave Liera a short kiss and activated Warp. The level 87 Warp sent her to the world where the others were. Raphael made a bitter smile while looking at that.

[Quite the intense show of affection there. I have lost such feelings a long time ago.]

"Too bad for you then."

Yu IlHan only snorted towards Raphael's complex words and jumped into the gate with Yumir.

Beyond the gate was a battlefield between the angels and fallen angels! In a world where thick black energy flowed, a seemingly infinite number of angels and fallen angels were at war. Even Yu IlHan couldn't help but be shocked at the site.

The sky was too high and large. The lands were expansive and vast. Perhaps Earth magnified by one hundred times would be like this? Such a huge world was not the main headquarters of a faction?

What was even more surprising was the higher existences battling in various parts of the skies and land. Angels and fallen angels numbered the most, but there were also a lot of those belonging to the Destruction Demon Army and the Garden of Sunset as well. He would even believe it if someone told him that all the higher existences had gathered in this place!

"Just how many higher existences have gathered here......?"

[Ever since your companion, Kang MiRae, had opened a gate connecting to the Netherworld, we could acquire a lot of information about worlds under the rule of the Army of Brilliant Light. This world is the biggest world among the ones we could find. The world that has experienced 7 whole Great Cataclysms as well as several evolutions. It is also the world that is directly connected to the Netherworld.]

"The reason you didn't go to the Netherworld directly is......."

[You should know about that already, don't you?]

Of course, it was to lower the power of the Army of Brilliant Light as a whole. That was why it wasn't only the Heaven's Army but the beings from other two factions rampaging here!

[Well, the traitors? Do you see them?]

"Of course, there are a lot. I don't see any 7th class ones yet...... you save your suffering allies. I'll just move by myself."

[With that frightening concealment ability of yours...... oh.]

Before Raphael could even finish his sentence, Yu IlHan urged Yumir to head to the battlefield. He resonated with him in high speed, and the two concealed themselves with their mana. Raphael found that absurd even while watching and muttered.

[An ability that even deceives my senses....... But, I will not let you go this time.]

Yu IlHan was speechless for a moment while looking around the battlefield on Yumir's back. The scene where not only angels and fallen angels, but monsters and gatekeepers scattering their multi-colored blood everywhere.......

[Dad, did you not find a traitor yet?]

"No, I'm just thinking about something else."

It was just a while ago when the other factions had all ganged up on the Heavens Army, but the fact that they started concentrating their power into attacking the Army of Brilliant Light just because of a slight opening frightened him.

Leaving aside the Destruction Demon Army, who were just muscleheads, he could not understand why even the Garden of Sunset had changed their stance and attacked the Army of Brilliant Light. Just what did they want? Would all of them just rampage around in joy if it was about destroying factions that they didn't belong to?

Like this, it seemed like the Destruction Demon Army rampaging honestly without any excuses seem to be the most honest. One sure fact that they were all those that Yu IlHan had to screw up one day.

"......Let's start, Mir."

[Got it, dad!]

Yu IlHan's assault began. Charging throughout the battlefield, he immediately impaled the hearts of traitors as soon as he found them to kill them. Of course, he didn't kill just them. There were many higher existences he could kill with a single strike here after all.

Although he focused on traitors and the Army of Brilliant Light, stragglers from the Destruction Demon Army and the Garden of Sunset did not escape his attacks.

[Kugh!?]

[Invisible...... kahahk!]

Deaths occurred everywhere. Since the battlefield was in such a mess, there wasn't anyone that could notice the presence of Yu IlHan, and this made him more joyful. Wasn't this the perfect battlefield for Yu ilHan?

[You have earned experience.]

[You have earned experience.]

[You have.......]

[Dad, I keep getting experience.]

"It's not a glitch so don't worry about it."

Having battled with Yu IlHan for so long, Yumir had become level 299 long ago. Not only that, if they weren't restricted by levels, the two would have surpassed level 400 a long time ago. Of course, their real capabilities were way beyond any 6th class now.

"It's about time for a change."

[Dad, the number of enemy is increasing. There's a lot.]

"......Be wary against them a little, Mir. It's starting now."

[Yeah!]

And it finally happened. When Yu IlHan killed about 1,500 higher existences and the others in the battlefield realized that something was strange, the skies split wide and beings with overwhelming mana pressure had shown up.

[The 2nd Wing of Brilliant Light, Anafière, has come. Foolish pigeons. I shall pull out all your feathers.]

"The 2nd Wing of Brilliant Light......."

He was practically the 3rd-in-command of the Army of Brilliant Light. However, he definitely had a similar amount of mana and pressure to Raphael.

It wasn't just him. The 4th Wing of Brilliant Light, Satière, whom Yu IlHan had met before, as well as the 3rd Wing and the 5th Wing were there as well. The Army of Brilliant Light had really resolved themselves this time.

However, what was more amazing was the person from the Heaven's Army. A massive circle of fire seemed to appear out of nowhere, before a youth with a beautiful blond hair appeared.

With his hand holding a spear of flames, he was the angel with the highest league he had seen so far. Yu IlHan immediately realized what Liera had meant back then. The current him could not win against that being.

[Good, Anafière. I was waiting for you to come here.]

[......Michael!?]

The Archangels that never showed up in the War of the Wall of Chaos, had gathered here – there were two of them to boot! It was a surprising situation that made others think that the War of the Wall of Chaos was not important to them at all.

It wasn't only that, A few of the higher existences belonging to the Destruction Demon Army seem to explode all of a sudden, before a pitch black monster appeared out of the puddle of blood that formed, and instantly magnified. Yu IlHan realized that it was a type of teleportation magic that involved using blood as a catalyst.

[So it is finally the moment I've been waiting for....... The Lord gave me an order. I came here solely to kill 'him'.]

[The 1st Battalion Commander of the Destruction Demon Army, Keshein...... dammit.]

Yu IlHan waited just in case a Chief Gatekeeper appeared from the Garden of Sunset, but they didn't seem to participate. It seemed like the loss of Kelatuke last time was a big loss for them. Well, even without them, the characters that gathered here were more than luxurious for a single world.

[Anafière. The power of the Netherworld will decrease considerably if you lose the power of this world. At that time, Satan will fear even me. Will you guys be fine with just you alone? Where's the 1st Wing, Lazière?]

[Dream on, Michael. Without the need for Lady Lazière's power, you will be finished easily. Just what do you have in mind to leave Heaven so empty?]

[Right now, Heaven is in the cleanest state since the birth of Satan. Although you might be surprised, the current Heaven is safe. We've acquired a tremendous helper.]

[.......]

Anafière realized who this helper referred to. He bit his lips lightly.

[Yu IlHan...... did he go to your side?]

[What do you mean our side? We are in a state of cooperation. And so, you should resent Yu IlHan more than you do us. No?]

[Eeeek......!]

Michael smiled. It was as if he already knew what the master of fallen angels had ordered them. Anafière was enraged, and Michael swung his spear with a thicker smile.

[But rejoice, Anafière.]

Flames rose from his body. At the same time, a flame rose from Yu IlHan's body as well. His concealment was dispelled, and his figure was revealed for all to see.

Yu IlHan knew very well why this had happened.

The Heart of Fire, used in the creation of the Soul of Fire. That item contained records of when it was inside the Heaven's Army's treasury, and Raphael was agitating those records in secret while acting together with Yu IlHan to cast one magic.

And Michael had activated that magic. It was the perfect magic solely created to nullify Yu IlHan's concealment!

[I will erase that boy in your stead.]

And now, Michael was looking directly at Yu IlHan.

No, it wasn't just him.

All higher existences in this vast world were glaring at Yu IlHan. Especially Raphael, who was smirking at him, and the 1st Battalion Commander of the Destruction Demon Army were the most impressive of the bunch. Meaning, they had some connection behind this.

In other words, this battlefield was not intended for cleaning up traitors and attack the Army of Brilliant Light. It was to deceive Yu IlHan to look like it, and lure him here in order to kill him!

Eternal Flame asked.

[Can I erase it now, master?]

"Go ahead, Eternal Flame. You can erase that magic now. Sorry you had to feel stifled all this time."

And it was also the stage for Yu IlHan's giant leap.


Chapter 294

[Hm?]

Michael panicked for a moment. He realized that the seal he had engraved in order to track Yu IlHan had disappeared. Yu IlHan only laughed when he saw that.

"You didn't possibly think that I didn't know about it, right? What you guys utilized in the process of making the seal was fire and records. And I'm ahead of you in both of those fields."

[......What?]

The one that replied was Raphael. It was a magic that took him a long time to do it in secret, and in actuality, Yu IlHan was revealed in front of everyone like this. But what? He knew from the beginning? Then why was he affected by the magic initially?

"You guys."

Yu IlHan looked around to everyone with a thick smile on his face. Angels that thought that they had cornered him; Archangel Michael clad in fire; Army of Brilliant Light that acted confused; Destruction-loving perverse beasts of destruction from the Destruction Demon Army; as well as the mysterious perverts, the Garden of Sunset – he looked towards all of them and asked.

"Just who are you looking at?"

The next moment the figure of Yu IlHan turned into a black fog and melted into thin air.

[......What?]

Raphael finally realized that something was strange. The ones that rushed into battlefield were Yu IlHan and Yumir, two of them, but the one revealed by Michael's magic just now was Yu IlHan alone!

But then, where was the dragon? No, what was that thing which looked like Yu IlHan that appeared in front of them? Was it really Yu IlHan?

[Critical Hit!]

Raphael was given the answer the next moment. Just barely after looking at the spear that had impaled his abdomen.

Yu IlHan was never there in the first place. He deceived Raphael to and attacked him with his maximum power at the perfect timing.

Raphael's shoulder blades shattered, and two pairs of wings were ripped out.

[You...... deceived me!]

"Just who, deceived who?"

Asked Yu IlHan in a cold voice. Raphael became speechless at that. At least, he didn't have the qualifications to denounce him. He coughed out blood and asked.

[How did you do it?]

"Though I hate to say it since the feeling is like I'm a villain from a movie if I explain in this situation......but, it's an artifact."

Flamesoul Dragon Body, to be precise, it was the power of the Body of the Human Dragon. He separated a portion of his mana as well as the combined magic from Michael and Raphael to make it look believable, and while that attracted the gaze of all beings here, Yu IlHan had brought out all his powers as a Deathgod to attack Raphael with Yumir. It was a very simple process.

[Simple? The technique that deceived all 7th class beings including me...... is simple!?]

"It was simple for me. Well, then. How long are you going to act like you were done in?"

Raphael had an innate recovery power. Of course, Yu IlHan's attack was strong, but that wouldn't make him immobile.

In truth, Raphael clicked his tongue the moment he heard Yu IlHan's words and disappeared only to reappear in another place. The place beside the strongest man here, Michael.

[Raphael, your body?]

[I am fine.]

Michael also met him with a slightly nervous gaze. He probably felt something after seeing that his proud 'flames' didn't work against Yu IlHan.

[He's an ominous guy. He just accepted the magic even while knowing about it. It shouldn't be for a petty reason like 'to attack you'.......]

[Kugh...... Be wary against him, Lord Michael. We do not know what else he may be hiding.]

"That's amazing."

Yu IlHan was amazed after seeing Raphael relatively fine even though he looked to be on the verge of death just a moment ago.

However, that was enough. The guts, bones, flesh, the white blood, as well as the white feathers on his flaming spear allowed him to get whatever records necessary from him.

[......Michael, don't tell me the reason you came here was.]

The 2nd Wing of Brilliant Light, Anafière spoke in a voice of disbelief.

[To kill Yu IlHan?]

[To be exact, it's to prevent you from protecting Yu IlHan. If you do not stop us, then we are only thankful...... how is it?]

[......Although we are fed up with Yu IlHan's actions, he's nothing compared to your mindset and actions. Did you shake hands with the Destruction Demon Army? Even though you're the prided 'Heaven's seeds'?]

Michael shrugged his shoulders and nodded his head.

[I do not like the idea of borrowing power from those filthy beasts, but I can't help it if it's to stop another disturbing element from rising. It was an insulting and demeaning negotiation.]

[You really are...... Move out.]

Anafière relayed an order to the fallen angels even while thinking it was absurd. The next moment, all the fallen angels that filled the battlefield started to show strange movements.

"Huh?"

Yu IlHan tilted his head in confusion while collecting the remnants of Raphael. Although fallen angels being hostile against angels was a usual thing, they were currently moving like they intended to protect Yu IlHan.

"......What are you up to?"

Even though, just until now, he was helping the angels exterminate the traitors, and were killing fallen angels? Just why did they try to protect Yu IlHan now?

At that moment, something flashed by Yu IlHan's head.

"Is it something like 'Only we can touch that guy!' or stuff like that? It feels disgusting so stop it!"

Yu IlHan felt strange since he somehow felt like he was the protagonist of some romance novel now, and shouted out in shock. Of course, Anafière only felt that it was tragic.

[To think we need to...... *crunch*, protect him!]

[Lord Anafière, do we really need to protect that? Wouldn't Lord Satan's thoughts have changed by now?]

[Do not try to question his orders. Until the moment he orders us otherwise, we.......]

Anafière bit his lips as he turned around as if to protect Yu IlHan. In his hand was a gigantic bloody great sword.

[Need to protect Yu IlHan. Crissière, Satière, I presume you know what to do?]

[Yes.]

[Yes!]

The 3rd and 4th Wing of Brilliant Light stepped against the one from the Destruction Demon Army, Keshein, that appeared through blood. He only laughed.

[You guys are too weak...... I only want to hunt that human over there.]

[Let's see you blab on!]

They all charged. Flashes of light and blood flew. The 5th class higher existences also acted according to their factions as well. Even though the objective of this war had completely changed, its intensity only rose in scale.

[That's an interesting scene.]

The Heaven's Army that executed its traitors through Yu IlHan's power was now trying to kill him with the help of Destruction Demon Army, and the Army of Brilliant Light that had received tremendous damage from Yu IlHan now had to protect him just because of orders from Satan, while the most objectively inferior group in this battle, the Garden of Sunset, watched on in curiosity.

Although he didn't want to agree with them, it was very interesting scene even to Yu IlHan as well. It was very interesting, but.

[You have mastered the skill, Record.]

[You have acquired the qualifications.]

[All of your records gather. You are newly recorded in this sole world.]

"Hey."

Yu IlHan called out the Cradle of Miracles in the air and spoke.

"Since when was this your stage?"

[...... Yu IlHan!?]

Someone, who realized the intentions behind his movements shouted. However, it was too late by then.

[Dad, I'm ready.]

Reported Yumir quietly. Yu IlHan replied with a smile.

"Yes, Mir. ......I'm also ready!"

The Cradle of Miracles explosively expanded in size and enveloped Yu IlHan and Yumir. They resonated with it while emitting intense amounts of mana, and the Flamesoul Dragon Body followed soon after. The energy of dragons, and the energy of fire that were all under Yu IlHan's rule amplified within it, compressed after, then repeated the cycle of amplification and compression.

[All titles disappear with their effects remaining intact. You become a being that cannot be defined by any language.]

[All the blessings of gods you have received is cancelled. You now have direct dominion over those attributes.]

[The effects of the title, 'Surpasser', is added to the records. You are no longer bound by anything.]

Eternal Flame only collected her consciousness with her master in joy, but Echjar still couldn't believe it even though he was at the center of all this.

[Th, this human, this mere human! My lord has really...... really?]

Red light filled the world. Michael finally felt a sense of crisis for the first time after arriving at this world.

[W, we need to stop him. It's happening much faster than we expected!]

[Stop him. Attack! I said stop him!]

[Dammit!]

All angels and Destruction Demon soldiers rushed towards him. The fallen angels desperately attempted to stop them, while the gatekeepers watched on with joy. One of the gatekeepers spoke with a laugh.

[It's too late. You cannot stop him! It's the birth of the Fifth! The latest but the brightest of them all! The Fifth!]

[Of them all......? You mean to say that he's bigger and better than your own leader?]

[The Lord has spoken as such, and we only faithfully believe his words!]

The prophecy from the ruler of the Garden of Sunset. The same prophecy that was known to everyone through Helièna, and the same one that everyone was wary against. Michael shouted while clenching his teeth.

[Kill him!]

The flaming spear thrown by Michael was blocked by Anafière. As he was lacking in power to fully defend against Michael, he was pushed back mercilessly while coughing out black blood, but despite that, Anafière stopped Michael with all his power. A similar scene was happening with Crissière, Satière, and Keshein.

[Ki, Kikik.]

[Dammit!]

[Lord Satan, O LORD SATAN!]

Yu IlHan didn't care no matter how much of a mess the battlefield came to be. What was important to him right now was only himself.

Everything that he had memorized and recorded from the moment he was born, the power of higher existences, and the fragment of God that he could finally acquire from Raphael! The records and sources of power that ruled and evolved worlds he had acquired from countless higher worlds!

A single line of text appeared on Yu IlHan's retina.

[You may become the one that encompasses all, but you are still lacking something.]

[However, you may now acquire a new subclass to replace Angel's Partner. There is something that you need amidst them. You already know what you require.]

1. [Woodworker]

2. [Blacksmith]

3. [Musician]

4. [Tamer]

......

179. [Leader]

Leader. A leader was a very common subclass possessed by those with qualities to harmonize other people and lead them. A subclass that gave bonuses when partying, and also one that amplified in effect the more personnel he or she led. The subclass that almost all clan masters possessed.

And now, that had appeared as a selectable option in the list. There was no reason to speak of. It was because party play didn't suit a man like Yu IlHan. If he didn't create a fleet after becoming the Dimensional Traveler, there would never come a day where leader appeared as one of the available subclasses.

"I'm quite the stubborn guy even in my opinion."

[Yu IlHaaaaaaaaan!]

The angels that broke through the fallen angels attacked him mercilessly. However, the words from the gatekeepers from the Garden of Sunset were right, and none of their attacks reached Yu IlHan. In fact, the mana they used was swept up in the resonance and only gave Yu IlHan additional power. This applied to any attacks that came his way.

Michael and the other angels were all acting in vain. If they really wanted to prevent Yu IlHan from becoming a higher existence, they should have run away with all their might. Of course, that would only delay his awakening by a little!

[Dad is a cool dad. You always were, and you always will be. We all believe in dad.]

Spoke Yumir. He was really an honest and cute kid. He was only dumbstruck when he was first born, he could say this honestly now – That he could step forward because he was here; that he could truly become happy as Yumir appeared in his life.

"Thanks, Mir."

Yu IlHan patted Yumir's head. Then, he raised his head, and chose.

"Yes. I'll become a Leader."

[All qualifications have been fulfilled.]

Reported the Akashic Record. As always, the green text appeared on Yu IlHan's retina.

As well as the retinas of all higher existences here.

[A new higher existence faction 'Dragon's Nest', is born.]

Author's notes

You have all waited for a long time. Here it is finally


Chapter 295

What was creation? Yu IlHan had never forged anything from nothingness and as such, he did not know what true creation was just yet.

The creation he knew of was tied to using materials that already existed and transforming them into something else. He took it a step further, giving rise to what was regarded as impossible, from what naturally occurred.

With enough materials, he could make anything. He had the confidence to do that.

[It is not too late. We can still.......]

[L, Lord Michael!]

[Don't you dare!]

[Get out...... dirty crows. Do not block the way of the one that executes God's orders!]

Voices of angels and fallen angels could be heard afar. Yu IlHan thought while listening to them.

What was I trying to do again?

"Yes, creation."

Creation of what?

"Myself."

His true self, created from the materials provided through his very own being. The smith was himself, while Eternal Flame, Echjar, and Yumir were helping him. The Cradle of Miracles served the same purpose. Fusing the flames and dragons within him into one, and giving rise to a completely different being.

Now that he had finally mastered the Record skill, nothing stopped him from doing it.

"I wish I had more flames."

If he was disappointed about anything, it was that. Of course, Yu IlHan was currently in a realm where he could create flames by himself and rule over them, but he had to make the dragon's mana in the same way as well.

Eternal Flame and Echjar were supporting the energy of flames and dragons respectively. Additionally, Yumir was also providing him with dragon's mana. That was why, the dragon's energy was slightly larger than the flame energy he had.

He wanted to balance those two out. What could he do? How? When he thought up until that point, he discovered an external source of flame approaching him.

"So that's it."

The one that was burning in intense hostility was Michael, a God's deputy. It seemed that the fallen angels were insufficient to block him. He could feel the aura of flames approaching him in a straight line.

He would have finished earlier if the fallen angels didn't block him... those guys really didn't do anything good.

[Although I think it is very unfortunate...... we cannot allow your existence. We shall take care of Earth. So...... die in peace!]

Shaking off the 2nd Wing of Brilliant Light, Anafière, Michael flew towards him and threw a flaming lance that contained all his mana. The 4th Wing of Brilliant Light, Satière, tried to block it before it reached Yu IlHan, but the 1st Battalion Commander of the Destruction Demon Army, Keshein, swallowed the 5th Wing and held Satière back.

[You damn monster......!]

[He's grilling him for me to eat. I can't allow you to stop him before he is cooked to perfection!]

These guys were imitating an orchestra all by themselves. Yu IlHan laughed and watched the many fights going on, before eventually shifting the position of the Cradle of Miracles slightly. The next moment, the flaming spear flew straight into the Cradle.

The flaming spear should have destroyed the Cradle as well as Yu IlHan within it, but it had lost all its force and was only left with intense energy, which filled the Cradle of Miracles.

[The skill, Counter, has become level 39.]

"No, no. I'm not reflecting it. That's it."

He had 'countered' the strike from Michael who was even called the God's deputy. It was natural for the Counter skill to leap in levels. However, even though Yu IlHan had acquired an opportunity to injure Michael, he cancelled the skill midway. It was to absorb the raging flames held within the attack.

"Thanks. You filled the last piece of the puzzle."

[My God.......]

With his flames stolen, Michael finally realized where this was going and muttered in disbelief. The closer he went to Yu IlHan, the clearer he could see what he was doing right now.

On the outside, he still kept his human figure, but in actuality he was anything but human. Right now, the elements that made up the person known as Yu Ilhan was decomposing, they broke down into the most basic units, and were subsequently reconstructed into the most perfect combinations and structures.

[You, are already.......]

"Yes."

Yu IlHan replied with a smile."

"You guys are too late."

[I cannot accept it!]

Michael made a new set of flames and threw them. Yu IlHan's very existence had become loose; and Michael had lit a fire in the heart of all of it. However, it only helped Yu IlHan in his creation as it was sucked into the domanial resonance.

If Michael was an angel that manipulated not fire, but water or ice, he could have delayed Yu IlHan's creation by a little, but now that Yu IlHan had ascended to a new realm of being, all of his flames were instead ruled by Yu IlHan.

[This cannot happen. Gabriel definitely told us that we will not be too late. His foreknowledge has not yet......]

"Foreknowledge.... prophecy...."

The closer he approached Yu IlHan, the more mana of flames that composed Michael was sucked out of him and into Yu IlHan. The resonance between Yu IlHan and the Cradle of Miracles was now loud like thunder and even made some of the beings here deaf.

"I'm sick and tired of all that bullshit. I never looked at the answers when I solved questions in textbooks."

That was a lie. He did glance at the solutions when he didn't understand how to do them.

However, repeating such actions would increase his reliance on the answer sheet. Once one found himself being relieved only after seeing the answer in the answer sheet, they would realize how dangerous it is to know the answer beforehand. Yu IlHan also stopped checking the answer sheet after that.

Yu IlHan liked the unknown.

He liked freedom.

He even loved loneliness, but on the contrary, he also liked noise as well.

He liked everything that endeared him and loved him, and now he wanted to reciprocate and love them back.

If he had the qualifications.

He wanted to encompass everything in his embrace.

The flames Michael had made, the one that contained his all poured from the Cradle of Miracles to Yu IlHan. It was as if looking at a baptism of flames. Michael cursed himself for thinking that that scene looked holy for a brief moment.

Creation began.

[Master...... is changing.]

[Th, this...... is not changing. It's rebirth. How can this be. Is this being really achieving the long cherished wish of the dragonkin? A being that is not a dragon, s is being reborn as a dragon?]

[Dad is becoming stronger. I'm also becoming stronger.]

"Everyone...... concentrate."

Yu IlHan knead himself. As he kneaded all of his records, his titles, main class, and even skills were all mixed up with each other and were destroyed and was created anew, but the important thing was not that right now.

He concentrated purely in order to make himself stronger, more perfect, and more suitable.

[All main classes and subclasses disappear with their abilities intact.]

[The skills, Record and Rule, fuse and evolve. You have acquired the skill, Declaration. You can now create a record that surpasses records within your domain, as well as bringing non-existent records into reality. It will use large quantities of mana in the process.]

[The skills, Falling Down, Dragonic blood, Dragon-man resonance, fuse and evolve. You have acquired the skill, Manifestation. You can increase the abilities of everything under your domain. You can implement more destructive abilities on a wider scale as the skill grows.]

[The skills, God Force, Spear of Untraceable Trajectory, Great Cosmos-severing Spear, Dismantling, Excavation, Absolute Accuracy, fuse and evolve. You have acquired the skill, Transcendent Trajectory.]

Seeing the strongest being here, Michael, being easily swept up in front of Yu IlHan, no one could approach him. Of course, the Destruction Demon Army did not care for that and rushed in, but they were akin to moths rushing into a firestorm, only to be sucked dry of their mana and shrivelling into nothingness under the domineering might of the turbulent resonance.

[Kugh, like this...... I can't eat him! Dammit! Uaaaaaaaaaah!]

And that was no exception for the 1st Battalion Commander of the Destruction Demon Army, Keshein. It was clear what this meant.

Yu IlHan had already pioneered a new realm from all those here, and a realm that they could not reach.

"Well, then......."

[No, no......!]

[My lord, o, Satan! Are you really going to allow the birth of such a being? O Lord Satan!]

[Aah, the prophecy...... is finally happening!]

Brilliant flames arose. The flames that arose as if to shroud Yu IlHan and Yumir's figures expanded rapidly to swallow everything in the region and forming a complete sphere.

It looked like a red egg. The unprecedented. The 'Unique (Yu IlHan)' was completing himself inside the egg.

[Aah.]

[He is.......]

[Born.]

And at one moment, the flame that formed a sphere started being sucked into the center. At that moment, the world became silent. As if to celebrate, or to fear, his birth, everyone was silent.

And Yu IlHan opened his eyes.

Countless text appeared on his retina.

[You have become the ruler(lord) of the higher existence faction 'Dragon's Nest'. You have become a being that is no longer bound by league. You are not bound by anything. You do not become stronger in a world under your rule, but are not affected either in a world belonging to an enemy.]

[Born man, reborn through dragons and flames, you can also influence absolute authority over all metal and artifacts.]

[You can enable additional ruling within the domain with the skill 'Declaration' whenever you wish.]

['No one' can hide from you.]

[You have become level 519.]

[Yu IlHan]

[Lord of Dragon's Nest Lv519]

[Strength – 1,113 Agility – 1,067 Health – 1,035 Magic – 1,528]

[Active skills – Manifestation(Falling down, Dragonic Blood, Dragon-Man Resonance) Lv 1, Transcendent Trajectory (Great Cosmos-severing Spear, Spear of Untraceable Trajectory, God Force, Dismantling, Excavation, Absolute Accuracy) Lv 1, Mana crafting Lv Max, Declaration (Rule, Record) Lv 1, Warp(Leap) Lv 87, Dimensional Ruler Lv 88, Counter Lv 39]

[Passive skills – Blacksmithing Lv Max, Magic engineering Lv Max, Cooking Lv Max, Unshakable heart Lv Max, Dimensional adaptation Lv 79, Fleet command Lv 86]

"Fuu......."

[Master!]

[My god...... My lord, my ruler!]

The most difficult work ever since he learned creation was finally over. Yu IlHan sighed in relief and shrugged his shoulders. A small translucent flame lingered in his breath for a moment. The Soul of Fire and the Body of the Human Dragon, that hadn't taken form yet, covered his naked body again.

While everyone was looking at him absent-mindedly, Yu IlHan patted Yumir's head and checked his status.

"Mir, are you alright?"

[Yeah, I grew a lot!]

Yumir awakened as soon as soon as Yu IlHan did. Since he was connected to Yu IlHan more deeply than anyone else, he had evolved the moment Yu IlHan was reborn as the Lord of Dragon's Nest.

[I became a lot stronger, dad! Did I do good?]

"Of course. You did very well."

[Hehe.]

Right now, Yumir was a much bigger dragon than before. With his level limitation removed, he grew instantly into a 6th class dragon of level 451. Right now, he could wield flames in conjunction with his wind. Naturally, that was thanks to Yu IlHan's help.

"Oh, and Michael's help too."

[You, bastard.......]

Michael clenched his teeth while facing Yu IlHan that was reborn into a lord. The flaming lance in his hand could not maintain itself and disappeared. In front of the lord of all fire, Yu IlHan, no one could use the power of fire without his authority.

[I am the deputy of God! O false Transcender. You do not think that flames are all that I have, do you!]

"Of course not. I also know that you're very strong."

Replied Yu IlHan slowly as he raised his hand. A spear of pure flames appeared in his hand. The appearance was so natural that no one could feel anything awkward from it.

"And so, Michael......."

Yu IlHan flicked his finger with a smile.

"Come at me."
