I Became the Only Non-mage in the Academy

Chapter 119: The Heavenly Demon (1)

In this world, there existed beings who had entirely transcended through their own will.

Transcendents.

Monsters who have established their thrones and look down upon the world. Even among advanced nations, those who declared themselves as gods and were worshiped as such were referred to, if not considered a superpower.

Alone, they could overturn countries, and their mere existence elevated the value of a nation—an absurd reality.

The world called them Transcendents.

There were fewer than ten of them in this world, and the impact each has on the world was immense. Even if the Overlord roamed the world alone, killing those who opposed him, nations could not properly restrain him for the same reason.

“There’s a saying that if you mess with the Overlord, you’re either just a minion of a villain or a Mine.”

Even so, wouldn’t any nation protect its citizens who sustain it? But the Overlord could do it.

“Elder, which one will you handle?”

“Hmm, I’ll take care of the Malice. I’ve always found it quite unpleasant to be compared with him. Since he was treated the same as me through the power of others, it’s time to teach him his place.”

“Then I’ll handle the Vicious Abomination. I share the elder’s sentiment. Hey, Seo Ye-bin. You just protect the civilians.”

“How ridiculous, Celestial.”

Seo Ye-bin said, looking towards the White Divine Temple.

“However, I’ll follow your opinion this time. The situation is not normal. Maybe I’ll have to fight against the White Divine Temple.”

“…With the White Divine Temple?”

“Why? Are you scared?”

“Hardly. There’s nothing in this world that scares me.”

“Recently, you were crying while drinking about Kim Ara’s disappearance……”

“Shut up!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Quiet.”

A playful conversation.

However, despite such conversations continuing, no one moved. Or rather, they couldn’t move. The intangible pressure suggested they could be crushed at any moment.

The Vicious Abomination watched them with dark eyes. Malice smirked at us.

-Fake beings. Do you think you can defeat us?

“Fake beings. That’s laughable. You, who sell this world to extraterrestrials and seek power, are nothing.”

The Overlord said, twisting his hand.

-Fake beings. This world was originally their territory. You received their grace and drew others in to create your own territory. Now, it’s time to return this land to them. Today is the starting point of that.

“The deceived are fools.”

The Overlord didn’t speak long. These beings were fanatics. Not even the saying “A hawk is the remedy” fits them.

“You always talk too much. Come at me. Unless you’re scared.”

-Pfft.

The Vicious Abomination spread its huge wings. Wings in the form of a bat. His figure was soon enveloped in darkness.

Mine-ification.

An abhorrent, cunning, and foreign magic power wrapped around his body. His body grew larger. The magic power from another world gave him the strength to destroy this world.

-I’ve always wanted to crush that pride of yours. Couldn’t properly fight at the borders. Overlord. You, who have only experienced the world of humans, are a frog in a well. I’ll teach you why we are called the pinnacle of evil.

“A frog in a well.”

The Overlord.

Laughed. A frog in a well. Partly true. They were Transcendents. They possessed a power that was of a different dimension than ordinary beings.

But among Transcendents, there were differences in rank. Who had created the most complete vessel. Who had clearly marked their laws upon the world. How much their ideology had eroded the world…

As worlds overlapped, all sorts of worlds combined with this one.

The martial world merged with China.

The temple where the White Spirit resided descended in America.

Korea obtained great heroes and spiritual veins.

Germany encountered the extremely evil Nazi Empire, who emerged victorious in World War II.

And the Overlord met a giant of the Giant Clan (巨神族).

His ancestor.

The primordial giant that once supported the world and the universe.

He received so much from him.

He learned that the world was vast and knew of beings that roam the universe. He acquired countless pieces of knowledge that are now forbidden.

The Overlord. Thus, he could become endlessly stronger.

He reached out his hand.

He learned from his ancestor what kind of power he had received, what kind of power he could wield.

The most basic elements that make up this world. The power that belonged to nature.

The Four Great Elements.

A power that delved a bit deeper into the origin.

Origin (根源).

A pure white sphere remained in the hand of the Overlord.

What the Overlord did next was simple.

He flew towards the Vicious Abomination.

“Die.”

And he planted his fist directly into the face of the Vicious Abomination.

The Vicious Abomination concentrated his power on his face, his arrogant act of relying on the magic that constitutes his origin. The fist, enveloped in the origin, penetrated the barrier.

-This is impossible…!

Boom────────!!

The fist that hit the Vicious Abomination distorted the space around it and pushed him kilometers away with a massive shockwave.

“Your Mine repertoire always seems to be the same. Beings from another world, false beings. It’s really tiring.”

The Overlord lifted one corner of his mouth.

“How utterly ignorant.”

-Don’t worry. You’ll be dead soon too.

A laughing figure appeared, his face twisted with burns and his body swollen like hives. A horrible sight.

“I’ve heard it. That you haven’t changed your body with the single-minded intention of destroying the world you despise with self-loathing.”

-Hehe. Then do you know what ability I am using?

“Of course.”

Celestial looked at Malice, a malicious evil that gained the power of curse to plunge an entire city into hell─.

-You seem unnaturally calm? Even Transcendents suffer from my curse.

“That’s right. Normally, I would have been reluctant to meet you.”

-Don’t tell me you believe in the existence of prophecy?

“Hmm, it’s too much for that child to get involved in this fight. Even at the cost of that child’s life, it’s only enough to die together with a top-grade Mine.”

Celestial said, laughing.

-So you believe that Vicious Abomination will lose? Vicious Abomination is quite fond of his own life. He’ll start to fortify his defenses now.

“Hardly. I am a sorcerer. I don’t gamble on uncertain odds. I trust in my power.”

Celestial said with a broad smile.

“I’ve recently seen an interesting being.”

Celestial raised his hand.

There was an impure power.

As if to deny all beings other than itself, black flames were negating his curse.

-…What is that power?

Malice inadvertently said that. Instinctively, he realized that this power and his own were in a completely subordinate relationship.

“Do you think I’ll tell you? In fact, this power is very difficult to maintain. Besides, it’s a power I can’t even harbor.”

This was borrowing a bit of the boy’s power.

If he were to harbor this power, he would be immune to all curses or illusions. However, Celestial could not harbor this power. It’s an absurd power that would deny even the splendid throne he has built.

“Then let’s start quickly. Maybe because I’m getting old, this power is trying to negate even my abilities.”

Celestial scattered Energy of Defying Heaven from his hand.

---

“It actually works.”

Before the fight started, Celestial told me.

-Could I borrow your power for a moment?

“Yes, but how?”

-Just let out your power for a moment.

“Like this?”

-I’ve seen it a few times, but it’s an absurd power. Even handling it briefly is troublesome.

“Will you be able to use it?”

-With your help, briefly. But it won’t be easy. Anyway, thank you. I’ll repay you separately later.

And indeed, Celestial was somewhat handling my power.

-I can handle the power myself. I’ve been continuously infused with the Energy of Defying Heaven by the Heavenly Demon.

“…Isn’t that abuse?”

-Right. That’s why I really like Lee Seo-ha.

Eternal Heaven nuzzled my leg with a grunt. Maybe because it’s a fox. It felt soft.

I turned my gaze. I saw Sung Han-byul with a blank expression, and Seo Ga-yeon and Hong Yu-hwa were visible.

“…If it was going to be like this, was there a need to call us?”

Hong Yu-hwa said with a sullen expression.

“Why?”

“Anyway, it would have ended if there was a Transcendent, even without our help.”

“No, that’s not it.”

I turned my head towards the location of the White Divine Temple.

At the end of the collapsed space, the Pure White Temple was floating.

Even though the situation had become like this, the White Divine Temple was silent. Even though they were granted the right to descend here.

“You doubt the White Divine Temple.”

“…Yes.”

“It’s a reasonable doubt. Probably many gods have split.”

Right.

Now, the White Divine Temple doubted each other. The highest-ranking gods were tearing through their midst.

“You think it would be good if I went there.”

“Yes. It’s urgent here too, but if the White Divine Temple falls, we won’t be able to hold on here.”

“That’s why you brought up Seo Ga-yeon.”

The purple eyes captured Seo Ga-yeon.

“I know what you are hoping for. If this incident is resolved well, I’ll help you.”

“Isn’t it similar to the principal?”

“Our desired outcomes may be similar but different. Don’t worry.”

Seo Ye-bin said that and then looked at me briefly before heading towards the White Divine Temple.

“So now we are…?”

“We have to repeat what we did earlier.”

I pointed at the magic soldiers.

“Leave the fight of the Transcendents to the Transcendents. We must finish our own battles.”

“…I see. So that’s why you found me and Seo Ga-yeon.”

“Yes, so I’m counting on you.”

“Where to go again?”

“Yeah.”

If the magic soldiers had Sung Han-byul, Hong Yu-hwa, and Seo Ga-yeon, there shouldn’t be a big problem. Unless someone interrupted in the middle.

I inserted Black Heaven into the White Rouge. Then, I headed towards the battleground where the Transcendents were clashing.

The senses of the Sword Demon had been sounding alarms for a while.

Maybe today, I might die.
