My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant

harley (2)

‘Yeah, it was strange to think about it.’

The Shinshin Church is one of the largest powers on the continent.

Does it make sense that a fragment has not been found in such a place for hundreds of years?

Of course, unless the Immortal King was an idiot, he would have set and spread strict conditions to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Church.

Because of that, he also missed two denominations.

But isn’t that the main denomination?

It doesn’t make sense to say that I haven’t found any of them so far.

“Of course, we do not guard the inside of the Bright Guard. What we block is only a roadblock. It will be managed by people of higher rank.”

“···okay. Then do you really need to tell me about it…?”

“Because there is a blessing of silence. Also, wouldn’t it be possible to make a more active defense by knowing what we are protecting? Do you know the Landguard Longitude? Since the descendants of the Immortal King have appeared, how important is it to protect the last fragments.”

aldamada.

Hans, the descendant of the Immortal King, is worried about how to find the last fragment.

‘But there is no need to worry.’

Instead, I had other concerns.

Heinrich is well aware of how thorough the security from the Holy Land to the Great Hall over the past few months has been through his own experience.

Recovering fragments from the deepest part of the Great War of Roselia from there again was almost impossible, needless to say.

“And the fact that I joined the Guardian in the first place means that I am a trustworthy person. The superiors seem to be very good at it, don’t you?”

“hahahaha… I don’t think it’s getting too much attention.”

“Actually, if you look at the growth, we cannot help but support you. Hmm, now let me tell you where I work. Follow me.”

After saying that, Lairin got up from where she was sitting and headed for the exit door.

Heinrich hurriedly followed her out of the room.

“Is it cumbersome? I can only speak in a designated place, so I can’t help it…”

The room they were in was a process involved in the complicated ‘procedure’ that was previously rough.

Maybe that’s not an ordinary room either.

“Would you like to try it out? Of course, I can’t even write it down.”

“It is. that······, ······!”

As she said, I tried to say something just in case, but not a single word came out of my mouth.

“I can’t divulge it anyway, but from now on, please be careful about your words and actions. Being unnaturally choked up seems suspicious in itself. It’s better to think of it as a secret that only you know. A secret that should never be revealed to anyone!”

“···yes! Okay. Only I will know.”

Heinrich nodded heavily with a stiff face.

As if swearing to take the secrets you hold in your heart to the grave.

Yes, I had no intention of divulging it to anyone else anyway.

Because only ‘I’ needs to know this fact.

I never intend to tell anyone else.

***

[Roselia is the deepest part of the Great War… If I had just tried to find it, I wouldn’t have been able to find it even after my whole life passed.]

A secret research facility located deep in the monster forest.

In a place full of gloom, an acrylic salivated.

He is the target the Church has risked life and death to pursue, and the information about the last fragment should never be known.

It was Hans, the descendant of the Immortal King.

After finishing Harley’s reinforcement research, he finally entered free research, but came across unexpected information and was troubled.

[My head hurts. I don’t think there’s anything I can do right now?]

No matter how strong Hans is now, it was still unreasonable to attack directly into the heart of the church.

I didn’t even know what more defenses were inside.

[Actually, there is no need for that. It’s something you’ll figure out over time. If you wait, the opportunity will come soon. 👑👑👑 . . ]

he wasn’t alone

Now that you know the location of the last fragment, all you have to do is wait for a certain time to build a foundation.

Because the research he is doing now is also important in many ways.

[This is also part of preparation for that time. First, we must find a way to definitively evade the pursuit of the saint. It’s frustrating because I can’t do my proper activities because I’m only in the barrier.]

The rough strands had already been taken.

It was a problem that still needed more time, but since he had a lot of time left anyway, there would be no need to be too impatient.

The reinforcement of the Harley, which was the priority right now, was progressing smoothly.

***

In the forest, quite a distance away from Hans’ secret research facility.

Pasasak—

A black panther fell like lightning from a thick tree.

The goal is to be a foolish human standing all alone.

As if he had not yet noticed the attack of the leopard, he did not react to the sudden attack.

No, it looked like that, but…

“Kah! There is no way!”

The moment the leopard fell over his head.

The human, Harley, turned around and faced the leopard.

With both pointed ears pricked.

Feeling that the surprise had failed, the Black Panther quickly stretched out his front paws, but he only showed his teeth and smiled savagely.

Because the battle preparations were already over.

puffy—

In an instant, his right arm swelled up, and five razor-sharp claws protruded from the tips of his fingers.

“Whoops!”

“Uh-huh—!”

The intersection of man and beast.

The leopard’s front paws were swung toward Harley’s head, but he bowed his head to avoid it and let the trajectory flow with his tightly muscled left arm.

It was a body art included in Heinrich’s “Crusader’s Combat Art”, which he used well in many ways.

Then, with one hand, which was bloated and swollen, he grabbed the leopard’s neck, which had a hole in it.

Aww! Whoops—!

“Khehehe!”

The five blade-like claws on a large grasp did not end simply piercing the leopard’s neck.

Kagagak—

Nails that dig through flesh like a squeeze and scrape the neck bones.

dump!

Victory and defeat were decided by a single battle.

Unlike the black leopard, who collapsed with all the flesh on the nape of the neck torn off, Harley’s body was not scratched.

“Kihya~! Exciting?”

The opponent who once risked their lives to fight is now crushed in one hand.

It was Heinz II’s influence that made Harley strong so quickly.

Because the blood he left behind served as a strong nutrient for Harley.

Of course, it was not possible to obtain blood magic or various abilities, which is the source of Heinz’s power, but Heinz’s body, which was strengthened by “Mixed-Blood Evolution”, was by no means ordinary.

“Then let’s get started!”

The muscles of the right arm, which had swelled up, were compressed and the volume decreased and became more agile.

And the arm went straight into the heart of the black panther.

Boo-wook— Choo!

A black panther’s manastone that came with a hand with sharp claws.

After brushing off the blood on it, he chewed on a crystal the size of a child’s fist with his teeth protruding like a shark.

Kwajik! Clap- Clap!

‘Now the black panther doesn’t seem to have much effect?’

“Mutation” is the characteristic of acquiring various types of genes and evolving them.

If the same species was eaten over and over again, the efficiency would inevitably decrease.

The reason for pulling out the magic stone was simple.

Because this was the most effective way to satisfy the condition of “Mutation”.

‘It would be perfect if I could even get a dragon heart.’

Dragon Heart, the king of magic stones.

Of course, there was no place where the item for sale or even the material was identified.

He may have it somewhere, but he has no way of knowing such information.

“The entity has attained enlightenment through repeated actions. Acquires the skill “Monster Eater”.

As I was eating all the Black Panther’s manastones, a familiar notification popped up in front of my eyes.

“Five? It’s a skill that suits me, isn’t it?”

「Geek eating」was a useful skill that made it easier, faster, and easier to eat anything.

Incidentally, it was not bad because it had a useful point to help with energy supply by speeding up digestion.

‘··········.’

More recently, there is one thing that I am very concerned about…

“Wah ha ha ha—!”

A roaring laugh that bursts out without me knowing.

It’s not particularly funny, but somehow I couldn’t help but laugh.

‘Harley’s personality seems to have gotten a bit weird after getting “Mutation”…’

Should I call it hot or tough?

“Pop … Pah ha ha ha!”

‘Just say it out loud, like a psycho.’

It’s usually pretty good, but right after fighting or seeing blood, it always changes like this.

The repeated human experimentation and the skills gained from it must have had a profound effect on the personality of the avatar.

So, no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t blame anyone else because it was self-employed.

‘Hmmm… I’ve been doing this all the time, so I think it’ll be fine as it is.’

It made my heart feel refreshed because I smiled coolly.

＜object information＞

-Object Name: Harley

-Common Characteristics: 「Mind Hub」, 「Persona」, 「Myeonggyeong Index」

-Individual characteristics: 「Mutation」, 「Physical mutation」, 「Regeneration」, 「Monstrosity」

-Speciality: Through various experiments, the body has adapted to the mutation. Each time a new gene is acquired, it evolves into an optimal combination, and mutates the body based on that information. Even in extreme environments, it adapts to its surroundings by changing its shape to suit it.

「Physical mutation」was an excellent ability to change the body with various combinations of genes.

The only downside is that it burns calories rapidly every time you use it.

But thanks to you, I was able to do this.

Dump, poo-duk—!

The muscles of the whole body expand and the bones thicken.

The shoulders are broadened and the field of view is higher.

after such a short period of time.

Harley had become a muscular giant that was over 2 meters tall.

“After all, it’s advantageous to have a big physique in a fight. At least you have to be this big!”

He took off his tight shirt as if torn off, and burst into a cool laugh again.

‘I’ve tried controlling it in various ways, but it’s more advantageous as my physique grows in order to fully use Harley’s abilities.’

Monsters, including beasts, transform the mana in their body into its strong vitality, demonstrating destructive power that goes beyond physical limits.

A power that cannot be used by the human body.

And although Harley still maintained the appearance of a human on the outside, the bones and muscles that make up the inside were already the same as those of a beast.

Because the bodies of those specialized only for slaughter boasted superior performance than humans.

rumbling—

As a reward, the energy consumption efficiency was atrocious, but now it was able to afford it with “monstrous food”.

‘Ah, by the way, the aftereffects of 「Physical mutation」 also overlap at the same time, so the hunger is enormous.’

Drooling—

Suddenly, saliva was dripping from Harley’s mouth.

His gaze was fixed on the black panther that had already fallen to the ground.

‘…isn’t it okay if there is also a “monstrous food”?’

Because I was able to digest anything without breaking it.

Isn’t there something to eat to satisfy your hunger here just in time?

Boobuk—!

Harley ripped off one of the black panther’s forelegs, roughly skinned it, brought it to her mouth, and ate it in haste.

The raw meat of a monster being torn off by its sharpened teeth.

dripping blood.

Harley’s lips and chest were already covered in blood.

‘···No, no matter how you look at it, it seems crazy.’

I tried not to interfere with each avatar’s personality, but Harleyman seemed to need special care.

If you continue to pay attention to your words and actions, you will become more tired in many ways, but with your current inclination, there is no way you can create a normal human relationship.

I’m not even a savage, what is this…

‘yes? savage?’

Auterica dimension, where various races and races intermingle.

Of course, there were also barbarians here.

Even with a fairly large force.

A barbarian land located in the southern part of the continent, there was even a tribal federation of barbarians was established.

‘A barbarian… A barbarian warrior… Do you think it’ll be okay?’

Big body and tattoos all over the place.

It bursts into a tough laugh and smashes the enemy’s bones with a large axe, and chokes its throat with the blood of its prey.

“Five! Good?!”

Harley, who had her mouth clenched, roared in excitement again.

So, paying attention to control to eat meat quietly, I organized my thoughts again.

‘Actually, I heard that culture is spread to barbarians these days, so it’s not like this… Well, there’s always a tori.’

Harley, a wild and wild savage warrior.

Somehow it felt good.

The soul of a gamer, who had cooled down since school days, is boiling again.

‘First of all, I need to make a helmet from the hide of a beast’s head, and get a bone necklace and other accessories and a large axe.’

It was a code full of prejudice and selfishness.

A stereotype of fashion that the modern southerners of today’s cultured generation can be proud of.

If they see it, they’ll make a fuss about planting preconceived notions about the entire southern barbarians.

Of course, I had no intention of counting their hearts.

‘I’m glad Heinrich also learned the art of an axe. You can use an ax in front of others and use 「Body mutation」 when you are alone.’

Wouldn’t it be nice if I was the only one having fun?

“Ha ha! Exciting! So, shall we keep moving?!”

Harley’s leg muscles swelled, smashing the bones of his forelimbs that had been eaten, and he sprinted across the forest.

Their eyes were sharp like that of a wild beast, and their nose and ears flickered incessantly to search for information around them.

Before moving to another area, the first thing to do was to acquire the genes of the monsters that exist here as much as possible.

so about a month.

It was the time when Harley, who even received the help of the undead, was prepared to hunt down all kinds of monsters in the vicinity to acquire genetic information and head to another place.
