Chapter 136 – Chapter 14
“Heo Eok! Heo! Crane!”
Kaicent, who had won the victory by destroying the blood line’s brain, sat down and sweated heavily with heavy breathing.
It was because he had to use that amount of energy to deal with the blood line that attacked him using even the prehistoric keeper.
‘I won… ! I… Won… Uh… !’
He killed the villain who hurt the women he loved with his own hands.
It’s hard enough to make you want to collapse right away, but a smile is naturally drawn from the satisfaction of keeping what you have.
“Huh, I thought she was just a cute girl, but now I see that she has a manly side~”
Charlize, who had approached Kai Sent, gave her hand so that she could stand up.
“Hey…I’m sweating a lot right now…”
“It’s okay. Right now, nothing is as valuable as your strength.”
“Then excuse me.”
Kaicent, who stood up holding Charlize’s hand, corrected her posture as her legs staggered.
“Honestly, I’m surprised. I never imagined that Aga could handle it alone.”
“It wasn’t because of my strength. If my colleagues didn’t protect me, I would have died without fighting.”
If Kaicent hadn’t overcome the magic of the blood line to the end, everyone would have been captured and become prey for his talent.
And it was the sacrifice of Lillian and the others that made him overcome the influence of witchcraft.
“It’s not bad to kill it by destroying its brain. But that’s not enough.”
“Yes?”
Charlize flicked her fingers lightly at her, and the flames consumed her blood-lined body in an instant, her head destroyed.
Even though we are a little distant, we can feel the heat that will dry us up because we are sweating profusely.
When she tilted her head, not knowing why her bloodline corpse was being cremated, her corpse suddenly stood up.
“Huh!?”
“As expected. I thought it was because I could feel the power of will in my body.”
Charlize gestured lightly, and several stones rose from the ground, turning into huge stone spears and shooting at blood vessels.
The corpse of the Blood Line, whose limbs were ripped off by the stone spear, struggled like an insect before becoming ashes and completely disappearing.
“That’s just…?”
“Destroying the head or brain is an excellent confirmed kill method, but it is not omnipotent.
“…”
I get chills running down my spine at the fact that he did all the tricks to survive even in that situation.
After that, he showed a tired expression of the world of masters who said that even a destroyed head could not completely kill an opponent.
“This is a special case. However, those who have reached an outstanding level are the last resort to protect their lives, so don’t be vigilant~?”
“Yes yes!”
Charlize returned to her company, giving Kai Sent a valuable lesson.
She went from being a warrior who just wanted to kill enemies to her normal eyes, and became a naive and cute boy.
Seeing that, she could feel an evil desire to embarrass those cute eyes welling up.
“By the way, dear.”
“Yes?”
“I have a question for you.”
“Yes.”
“How did you use the divine power?”
“Eh…”
Kai Sent, who was caught out that she used divine power, her expression stiffened, and she began to sweat more than before.
“That, that, that…”
“It doesn’t work to say that you seem to be mistaken~? Because the majority of the Guardian Corps possess divine power~?”
“Ah, uh, uh, uh, kek.”
Strange sounds came out of the boy’s mouth, who was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say first.
“Clergy are people who want to show that they worship a god in some way, right?
Behind those smiling eyes, you can feel the strong will that you can see through his lies at any time.
Thinking that if he lied clumsily, his feelings towards him would disappear, Kaicent decided to be honest.
“I am…!”
“It’s okay~”
“…Yes?”
“Fu-hu-hu, I wanted to see the baby flustered~ I’ll keep this a secret~”
Charlize hummed her hum amusedly while winking at her cutely.
‘… This is why Lillian is reluctant… ‘
The way she played with herself gave her the reason why she was afraid of Lillian.
‘I’m sure he’s a good person though.’
This species, who did not believe in God, used divine power.
This is a major event that shakes the foundations of this world.
Asking what happened, or worse, catching him right away and doing research, even though there is nothing strange about it, it is impossible for a normal person to pass it on like this.
‘It’s a different species that uses the divine power of our god without faith. I can’t tell you about such a fun thing♥’
If this is known, those old-fashioned and boring clerics will try to hunt Kaicent first, leaving even the Foreign Correspondence alone.
However, it was an interesting study for her, who prioritized her own inquisitive mind over her religious beliefs.
‘And.’
Seeing Kai Cent, slightly unnerved by her own smile, blinking her eyes at her cute.
‘It’s impossible to kill such a cute child.’
The feeling of wanting to take her home right away and nurture her for the rest of her life arises.
‘Akina drew Kai Cent with her ploy. She doesn’t like it when she jumps on her girl’s plot, but…’
Having solved the big problem of the blood line, she decided to put her hands on her guardian corps for the time being and return to her main job.
* *
The guardian corps, including Charlize, left the cleanup and disappeared.
They couldn’t afford to be caught up in such a back-and-forth that wasted time on them, who had to respond to the Foreign Press Association’s moves.
To be honest, all the villagers died, and the most important loot of the Foreign Press Union was taken by the Guardian Corps, so there was nothing to clean up afterward.
Merencia instructs Patisha to seal the entrance to her cave and decides to return for her report.
This is because the scale was too large to deal with with the current number of people.
After recovering only the corpses of their dead colleagues, the group decided to rest and return as their stamina was exhausted.
Some colleagues died too easily, but because they witnessed an unimaginable sight, the knights were separated and glanced at Kaicent and his party while they were resting.
“Kaisent, are you really okay?”
“Yes, it’s okay. To be honest, it’s a lot of hard work, but it’s a level where you can get better if you rest a little.”
“I’m glad. I’m really glad…”
The knights couldn’t believe that a kid like that could handle a blood line so strong that if they had fought normally, they would have been wiped out within a minute.
“No matter how talented you are, to kill a strong man in Origin at just that age…”
“Have you seen it before? You’ve seen the technique used by the bloodline a few times and copied it.”
“What will happen if I grow more…?”
They felt fear beyond admiration or envy at Kaicent’s unrealistic growth.
Because envy is something you can have only when you can catch up with your opponent to some extent.
A talent beyond common sense and cognition.
Overwhelming talent that even envy can’t shine.
The problem is that beings with that talent are heterogeneous.
‘Can I trust this species?’
‘It looks fine now. But what if I grow more here?’
‘What will happen if a different species with values different from ours seize power that no one can surpass?’
This world has been through a lot of problems caused by the alien species, and is currently experiencing it in formation.
Democracy, the Foreign Press Association, and many other problems are being caused by heterogeneous people.
Geniuses born in this world can be considered new heroes if they try to unify their world and rule it.
But what if a different species with a different mindset tries to unify the world?
What if Lee Jong, who has enough talent to win against a strong man who reached the level of Origin at the age of 14, imposes his values on our world?
The insecurity of the knights was implicitly amplified by the talent that could not be expressed even with the word transcendent.
‘Shouldn’t I rather kill him now?’
‘Be it traps, poisoning or whatever…’
“Stop.”
Merencia, who caught the ominous energy from the knights, evoked her mood.
“Look at that child. Do you think he will become what you think he is?”
At the same time as her warning, a small laugh flowed from Kaicent and the others.
The appearance of Kai Sent, smiling after receiving cuteness from her party, was so innocent that it could not be called a villain who would put the world in danger.
“I’m fine now, but I don’t know what will happen when I grow up and become an adult.”
“You’re right.”
“Of course, it seems safe now, but…”
The knights revealed their insecurities.
“I believe in Kai Sent’s character from what I’ve seen so far, and I’m convinced once again by the way he vents his righteous rage when his comrades are in danger.”
“Right. If that child becomes an enemy of our world, it must be our world causing trouble.”
Following Merencia, Patissia also supported Kaicent.
“And oh my…Suddenly. Akina-sama knows that, so I called to educate that child not to stray. The more hostile you are, the more that child will become our enemy.”
Some agreed to her explanation, but others did not agree and kept her mouth shut.
‘If it can be solved with such education, there won’t be any problems due to heterogeneity.’
‘Isn’t it easy and simple to just kill them?’
No matter how difficult it is to educate, in the end, a heterogeneous species is a heterogeneous species.
What would happen if he said that he would later develop his strength and change the world to suit his values?
A disquieting atmosphere was rising among the knights who learned of Kaicent’s power.
* *
When Kaicent and the others return to Akina’s castle to rest,
‘This child has already beaten a master who has reached the level of Origin?’
Akina, who learned of the situation through reports from her guardian corps and her daughters, put on a serious expression.
First of all, it is an undeniable fact that there are eyewitnesses that Kaicent handled the blood line with strength equal to that of Origin alone.
Although Charlize used to wield considerable power as her bloodline imprisoned them, the difference in her level was nonetheless overwhelming.
She thought ‘Kay Cent’s talent is well known. She is that child, she is a child who can one day go beyond Origin and become a strong Ascension.’
In the history of Jelsdad, only two people have reached the level of Ascension.
The first emperor who created the Heint Empire in the East Continent and the first emperor who created the Dimenes Empire in the West Continent.
Strangely, two Ascensions were born at the same time, and they each tried to unify the continent by creating their own countries in the east and west.
Surprisingly, at that time, there was no sea between the western and eastern continents, and it was a land connected as one.
Due to their early battle of the demigods, the topography of the world changed, destroying the center of the continent and turning it into a sea, making the current western and eastern continents officially incorporated into history books.
In addition, there is an unbelievable content that, although it is unknown now, under certain conditions, he can raise the level of his subordinates to Origin at once.
Those who learned the power of the absolute power that reached the Ascension stage wanted to reach that stage, but when someone tried to overcome them and become the Ascension, everyone united and attacked.
However, as there are frequent attacks on those who want to become Ascensions, new Ascensions cannot be born.
‘That’s why I tried to support Kaicent. It seems that the talent that lay dormant in that child’s body was more than I thought.’
The problem starts now.
‘My knights saw that the boy’s talent was beyond the ordinary. Rumors and interest will never cease.’
This world has suffered many damages from different species.
Nobles hate this species.
The aliens hate the aristocrats who oppress them by calling themselves heterogeneous.
The Heint Empire of the East Continent manages the different species and tries to use their power and knowledge in a beneficial way, but such systematic management is difficult in the Western Continent, which is crowded with numerous countries.
When the news of Kaicent is known, the nobles of the western continent will consider Kaicent dangerous, and the dissimilar species will try to use Kaicent’s power in hopes of saving them.
‘It’s not my intention, but I have to keep that child in my arms.’
Originally, as promised, I was going to train him for half a year before sending him off, but since the child’s talent was known, it became dangerous to send him outside.
The worst case imaginable right now is Kaicent committing himself to something like the Foreign Correspondence Union out of anger at the world’s malice toward him.
If he becomes a member of the Foreign Press Association and uses his genius talent to destroy the world, no matter how much he thinks about it, the only answer is the destruction of the world.
‘Or with my own hands… No no! What am I thinking! You know better than anyone that he’s a good kid!’
Thinking of killing Kai Sent, she hurriedly brushed her hair.
‘… First of all, I need to see how far that child has grown.’
Let’s start by measuring Kaicent’s strength.
Let’s think about the details later.
Having set the schedule like that, Akina moved on to the task of managing the territory, thinking that Kaicent would be getting a good rest, since he would be exhausted from fighting the formidable enemy by now.
