Chapter 215: Shock in Heaven (2)
WtE3YBoom!DPg
rDcAt the instant Ymir’s straight punch struck, only the greatsword remained and Rian’s figure disappeared.4tcp
PXgM4In Rian’s mind, as he was sent flying rapidly, all kinds of thoughts crowded in. To block the next attack, he had to regain his balance and land.5bmktI
A76eHe barely managed to stabilize himself. It seemed he could more or less land on both legs.8NtB
6VqUgBut in the next instant, he realized that his body was rolling across the ground, completely bent.bSGjI3
Y2XsWhen the remaining impact left his body, the sensation of the cold ground touched his cheek.rec7HOZ
GFea4mAn incomprehensible sound escaped from his mouth. It wasn’t that his body hurt, but he couldn’t exert any strength.gVqd
liQstmYmir observed Rian lying there and picked up the greatsword that had fallen to the ground. For a human it was a greatsword, but in Ymir’s hands it looked like a normal longsword.qND4y
9pjDIAs he examined the blade, Ymir’s eyes shone.jx5T
02tisF“Oh? This seems quite useful.”5HouqKD
ue4i1“R-return it. That… is my… grandfather’s…”EL7Rit
0FAzLtfRian stood up trembling.BZ1Fs
qSvThanks to having trained his body to the limit every day, the time it took him to recover from the impact was much faster than that of a normal person. What was called endurance.MM7
8CVPT0Ymir smiled crookedly and threw the greatsword. The sword slid along the ground and reached Rian.tYZJ3sM
oHhE“Do you want to try again? I like your tenacity.”NOnM8
tCCG49qRian picked up the greatsword with difficulty and charged again. The difference in strength was evident, but if Ymir’s destination was the Great World Temple, there was no choice but to fight.DhvzXJ
9KmcurcYmir and Rian collided in the center of the corridor. Ymir did not even try to block the greatsword.Gixno
tilCClang!0BQYD
BNMBThe greatsword struck Ymir’s forehead. No, more precisely, he blocked it with his forehead.mYrS3Rs
kGavu5Ymir’s fist came in a wide arc.ySeb
1WmollHe couldn’t dodge it. Realizing that, Rian opened his eyes wide. If he was going to die, he wanted to fight until the very last moment.gRIo
ROkDabIn Rian’s gaze, Ymir felt an electrifying emotion.o59c90O
9cek‘It’s a shame not knowing your name.’98d8bp
Jjj0S3Ymir’s fist raised a gust of wind and passed through the place where Rian had been.3kOm
HIEAFor a moment, silence reigned.wRo
gk5Ymir’s expression became irritated. Is there anything more annoying than an interruption in the middle of combat?iKwB
AqwIt was a strange phenomenon, but familiar.XL2Oy
qH0Just before the fist reached him, he clearly saw Rian split into dozens of squares.50Aw
ov4p9rT“Seriously… those above don’t know how to follow the mood.”QozWFO
Wr1e3FAbout 3 meters from where Rian had been, square glass panels flickered and projected two figures.lhYKW3
d3BNSThe handsome black-haired man, Ashur. And beside him, Rian was kneeling.Q5V
wdkHiYmir smiled coldly. Just the fact that a Mara known for not leaving heaven had appeared meant something out of the ordinary was happening in the Great World Temple.7QDAeta
6FqCd“Well, someone busy showed up. And you left the one you adore so much to come wander the battlefield?”lzdXUQN
xnG“Ymir, if you do not respect the laws, unpleasant things will happen. Return now.”jIHO7kU
Jgpdxk“Hehe, and what if I don’t want to?”PKZm
0mhLWb“Then I will have no choice but to erase your existence.”yh2ZpL
pB5AidWhen Ashur opened the palm of his hand, about 30 glass plates aligned in three rows in the air. On them was projected a long, thin sword emitting a violet glow.ujV2u
MNGT“Signal?”CgBTH1P
ONQaAshur’s Signal ability gathers all kinds of signals.xFw1JX
ctKEach panel contains a signal, and by combining the patterns of those panels, phenomena close to infinity can be materialized.kcJXt
2pDAshur’s longsword, Shockwave, was also created by receiving 30 different signals.eOKRGJj
0fGWC2SDue to the influence of the electromagnetic pulse, it vibrates on its own, and once it penetrates, it has destructive power capable of ravaging the interior.Maw
rPPRian looked at Ashur without reacting. It was as if he had died and been reborn, skipping the entire intermediate process.MDHPs
S5dSU6“Who are you?”hpHKQ
T2rsG“Go. He is an ally.”BgEHaS6
IsXU7vIt was a short sentence, but he understood it immediately. It was clear that Shirone had caused some kind of change.DE2
of64Rian stared at Ymir. But since Ashur appeared, he wasn’t even looking at him.JQ0iyq
IB1bNyRian clenched his lips and ran toward the Great World Temple.iz3s
whzmFA fire boiled inside him. He had not been raised so nobly as to fear defeat. But the fact that he had not landed even a single successful attack hurt deeply.aYuB
oPY4UHe could feel Tess’s drone following him. The machine remained silent until the end, but the voice of comfort she conveyed echoed like a hallucination.LELgP
DDv“Damn it! Damn it!”mZGRA
0vtvB71Rian ran with all his strength toward the Great World Temple.dHx22
gs8Y***vXqaWTh
DXka1dAshur continued blocking the path. He wanted to go to the Great World Temple following Rian, but for now, the urgent matter was to stop Ymir.PcGz
Y6EwQIf he used the Signal ability, transmission, he could send a signal to the destination and move instantly, but in the case of the Great World Temple it was impossible.GRbS1nC
Gl3O3Since it was covered with electromagnetic waves, waiting for the signal to transmit would be slower than running.Q9o39j
pVSvHYThat was why he had sent Rian first.JZg5Z
vCZU“Withdraw, Ymir. I will not tolerate further excesses.”G0bTb
G8D3KK0Ymir stroked his jaw and said,KYLNr
3NZ2Fb“If you even left behind that pretty angel, it seems something important happened. How about you share it?”dwHQLBR
VByWpoq“It is none of your concern.”5opyoty
PKu“For some reason, it sounds like it is.”kWeFx
IKNHyAshur did not deny it.mgra
9L2MWhat the king of the giants, Ymir, desired was combat. Deprived of his body simply for being strong, he longed for a fierce battle where he could only win by fighting with his true power.Jv8wV
KcLlIc5On the other hand, Ikael wanted to avoid war.8Gmn2X
gKv3snPIf that was what Ikael desired, Ashur would follow it as well.NkkyNE
dlfAs long as he intervened, nothing would happen in heaven. Therefore, there was no reason for Ymir to take interest.i6s
1UVCAshur pointed Shockwave at Ymir’s plexus.XnW3awd
XEEup“By order of Archangel Ikael-nim, I will revoke all rights that have been granted to you.”IcQIUt
SG6“Hehe, does a vulgar angel also have that authority?”rp5wq
rlZluAshur rushed forward like a gale.aBW0GEn
I13bBIYmir’s forearms, which he had crossed, were torn open and blood splattered. The vibration of the electromagnetic waves heated the bones until they burned.cwJ
nBLAshur crushed Ymir with a look of disdain.QQpV
9sir“Does a mere giant dare to insult an archangel? You are nothing but flesh. Do not defile a noble spirit with that disgusting tongue.”kk0ojRr
5S6Lgz“A mere giant?”HXVg0b
4VgLOne of Ymir’s eyebrows twitched.j7e7Y
xxo“I am Ymir.”HByAfO
57cFlAOAshur, sensing the killing intent, created distance. But Ymir reached him with a single 10-meter leap.y2p3zn
2JrhYmir’s powerful straight punch pierced his abdomen.gZUy5
864mh5“Guh!”4I4
KvpJLj5The impact reflected in Ashur’s eyes.94U
fPJRteHis figure, which had been frozen in time, became blurred, and the more than 180 glass panels containing signals flickered and disappeared.bJ7Qt
bkLTkvXYmir turned with an irritated expression.6aR8B4n
5oHAshur, who had completed the transmission to a new space, stood with dignity, holding Shockwave.ELxu6DI
24lUtEd“Hehe, aren’t you forcing yourself too much? I heard your power is quite restricted.”0l7
iRw“I am not in a position to receive compassion from you. You should worry about your own body instead.”FaI
dbW“Oh, really?”zip
zWOM5B“Inferno of ice and fire.”ywdm8
H4g7oThe space surrounding Ashur and Ymir was covered with glass panels.8n4r
7WIcVwApproximately 2,400 panels began to flicker, gathering signals of heat and cold. The scene of fire and ice alternating every 10 centimeters made the eyes dizzy.8Vkb7
Vc4IEsEWhat would happen when all the signals were transmitted? Would he burn from the heat? Would he freeze from the cold?nPO
w5u“It is something you brought upon yourself. Do not blame me.”Cmve
GiJS“I blame no one. Because I am the strongest.”QQSn
HqQYmir bared his teeth like a beast and charged. Ashur responded by raising his gaze coldly and swung Shockwave.6SvP
zQ6When the transmission was completed, a storm of heat and cold erupted at the same time.pdPIN
nt3Xkpj***jUpt
guwk“Tess! Wait a little longer! I’m almost there!”e2OArlm
BuHUIRian was no longer conserving oxygen. After running for 10 minutes since separating from Ashur, he managed to reach the bridge that led to the Great World Temple.oBIBKQh
yvEjThe bridge was 1 kilometer long and 60 meters wide. Without railings, it gave the sensation of floating in the sky. When a strong wind blew, his stomach churned for no reason.RBuGw
wQbIAt the end of the bridge rose a dome-shaped structure. It was the Great World Temple where his friends were being held.CY1
THZi9dyThe fact that the building was visible was a good sign. It meant that Canis had deactivated the mechanical system.bTdDAs
VfjXz“What? You’re still here?”Xq6JYhd
3RKPlWhen he turned around, he saw Canis approaching.qRCJ0W
mqF“How did you get here so fast?”787Su
V68Y“I came through a portal. But… what happened to your face? It looks like someone beat you up.”r4NUySA
CR1kyLaRian touched his face. He had rolled on the ground without even noticing the pain, so he hadn’t realized it was swollen. He looked at the drone with guilt.MaKmU
sO3SK‘You must have been worried, Tess.’ezmDiX
K5OGMDCanis also observed it. Without needing an explanation, he knew it belonged to Tess.rZN7
4dBpEven in a situation where she had been captured by an angel, she had managed to release the drone. Not bad at all.gcM
NEvUsL1“What’s the situation inside? Did you already check?”h0wXu
ImJIKv“Yes. For now, it seems fine. But……”cmqRxQ
lrtdSuddenly, the drone began to malfunction. It flew aimlessly for a moment and then fell abruptly, as if its power had been cut.i2adRp
2lPNZRian quickly caught it and checked it.vJteoa
Fv07The operating light was off. Since it was a device connected to brain waves, that meant something had happened to Tess.Wyfvf
CRH“What’s wrong? What happened all of a sudden?”jWxa
wPNpjDs“I don’t know! There’s no time!”e3U0Lp
mlEmiLRian rushed forward first. With Dark Port he could have arrived instantly, but the floating bridge was completely within the domain of light.8wExMgb
xSZ5hCanis grabbed him and, setting aside his pride, activated photonization magic.rMA
P8j4nEsA flash carrying both of them crossed the bridge at full speed.8Lb7
d4cB0***SES
bDOGym“You bastard!”0Jq4
wArWOlbAmy shouted as she glared at Kariel. The faces of Tess and Arin were also distorted.L1gE8
vNFljWhen the information penetrated from the panel implanted in their heads, their minds became dizzy as if they had drunk excessive alcohol.Esp
jL1B“There is nothing to worry about. Your hormones are simply being adjusted to match the liquor of life.”a959
aUL6JpKariel, who observed the women indifferently, turned his gaze to the screen.8j8I
Wsr2K04“It changes nothing. It will be different after the liquor of life is complete. Anyway, what does it matter? Every living being must go through this at least once.”O4E
6e4gyo“Shut up! Who do you think you are to decide that? Do you think we’ll do what you want? I’d rather bite my tongue and die than go through this!”FZMImNj
4wOcBKariel frowned as if looking at something unpleasant.5C74ow
NRelA“I don’t understand. You are not being punished. You have been chosen for the noble mission of conceiving nephilim. Not many women have rejected the liquor of life. Do you not desire immortality?”JlW2
M7G9j9“I don’t want any immortality! Even if I die tomorrow, I’ll live the way I want until the end!”bwby98
23bt“There is no reasoning with you. In any case, nothing will change. Once all the information from the panel is transmitted, there will be no turning back.”vFE0
JNYkaJ— Progress of the liquor of life: 20%.VxlW
a8XalFrom the ceiling, a woman’s voice was heard. It seemed to announce every 10%. From the perspective of those being subjected to the experiment, that emotionless voice was even more chilling.FPv
yXJq2OAmy struggled to free herself from the restraints.n73j1
RyLySIf she could free her hands, she planned to rip off the panel implanted in her forehead.70jLa
KG3YEven if she lost her life, she would live her own life.GByfD
F3BwT“Tess! Amy! Arin!”XrTPv9
rudUfOThe door of the Great World Temple burst open violently. Rian and Canis entered at the same time, as if competing.2YwFgtc
R3yRSTess, who had seen them crossing the bridge, shouted,zz5t
NWMV9“Rian! Here! Hurry and free us!”jVYJx
Hq6bBuORian stopped abruptly. He was overwhelmed by the size of the Great World Temple, which surpassed all imagination.UjgIJc
tzOAJnNot only its size, but also the objects and equipment were unfamiliar to him.VVQFg
JTNOn one side, a planet was rotating, and on the tower on the opposite side, all kinds of lights shone chaotically.WCf
b7LA“Damn it! What is this place?”HjRKXj
SQEVyKariel rose to a height from which he could see the humans at a glance.wlaVz
ryB“Did you come following the women? This must also be the foolishness of ignorant humans.”IRUo
A9irFA“You’re the one responsible? For doing this to my friends, don’t think you’ll get away unharmed.”o1m
b3kz8Rian raised his sword with complete caution.Pw1
ypFjUnlike his aggressive words, his actions were careful. Having seen with his own eyes the power of the fallen angel Ikasa, Rian could imagine the strength of an archangel.HiKK9
