My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant

Customization (1)

murmur—

The wounded were taken out one after another from the depths of the Great Hall of Roselia and transported to the treatment room.

It was a sight I never imagined I would be able to see here.

Saint Riesta looked at them with a heavy expression.

Everyone threw their own bodies and tried, but it seems that they couldn’t achieve their will because of their lack of self.

Then, the eyes of the saint turned to a paladin surrounded by priests from one side of the treatment room.

Heinrich was still discolored black all over his body, even though he had already undergone several purification treatments.

“ha···.”

A sigh came out of her mouth, which she didn’t know how many times it would be today.

“Saint, you are still here.”

“Ah, Cardinal Cordelia…”

At that time, the cardinal with a tired expression just like the saint approached and spoke to her.

“The saint was overworked today too, so you should just rest.”

“It doesn’t seem like I’m resting even if I rest because I feel uncomfortable.”

She used her divine power excessively in the fight against the Immortal King, and after the battle was over, she squeezed the remaining energy to take care of the wounded, but she was also at her limit…

Seeing this scene, I could hardly rest.

“And, I still haven’t forgotten that last scene.”

“At that time… that’s right.”

Cardinal Cordelia’s gaze followed the saint to one place.

“Sir Heinrich . . .”

“There is no harm in life. The treatment period seems to be a little longer.”

“That’s good.”

“However···.”

As much as the saint looked at Heinrich himself, he could clearly see how terrifying the curse was.

A type of black magic that inflicts severe damage to the mind along with extreme pain.

A direct hit without defense would make even a paladin unable to fight.

‘Normally, you won’t take damage to that extent around your body with divine power…’

But Heinrich endured it with his bare body.

Although the person involved could not have been unaware of the danger of the curse that was invoked in front of him, he endured it only with his will.

He forged the blade with his will, putting every drop of divine power to be applied to the defense at the tip of his sword.

In order to penetrate the heart of the Immortal King rather than for his own safety, with a tenacity to increase the probability even slightly.

For the sake of the mission… for one’s own convictions.

Although his appearance was foolish, the thought that he would not have been able to defeat the Immortal King if he had not done so made my heart ache.

“At the time, I thought that was the only way, was it really? Would there have been other possibilities if I had tried a little more?”

The ability to move through space, and the blessing that can be activated immediately at the desired moment, was a very rare power.

Heinrich was the only one who had it right now.

At the time, I thought that was the best way, but was it really?

Wouldn’t it be better to proceed in the direction of self-sacrifice than to push others into danger?

If that was the case, maybe the Immortal King could be dealt with on the spot…

“Lady!”

Cardinal Cordelia raised her voice with a firm expression, as if to break the thoughts of a saint who had fallen into endless remorse.

“It was the best way back then. Everyone present did their best for it, and he exceeded our expectations. There is no room for her to blame herself here.”

“However···.”

Seeing the saint still lingering, Cardinal Cordelia smiled softly like a grandmother looking at her granddaughter.

“And . . . we got a new hero, didn’t we? Now that the Immortal King is resurrected, we need a hero who can stand against him.”

A young paladin with the same divine power as the commanders of the Paladins at the age of his early twenties.

He was never lacking in his fighting ability, so he was a strong man with a much more promising future.

“This ordeal will make him stronger. He is by no means a man who will be easily destroyed by such things. He is a hero who is receiving God’s attention.”

To help the hero grow faster and bigger, the Cardinals concluded that it was their job.

‘hero···!’

The saint looked back at Heinrich, who had fainted, and clenched his fists.

If you think about it, it was.

As always in the storybooks I’ve read so far, wasn’t the saint beside the hero helping him?

Looking back on my experience of reading numerous heroic stories, I have never seen a saint taking the initiative to defeat the Demon King.

‘The Demon King, the Hero, the Saint!’

The imagination of a dreamy 18-year-old girl is inflated.

Cardinal Cordelia just looked at the saint with a brightly determined expression on her face, and her eyes gleaming with determination.

***

Clap clap—

“Great, great.”

Impressed, I got up from my seat and gave a standing ovation.

It was a tribute to himself for directing and leading a great scene.

“The first button worked fine. This completes the narrative of the adversary between Hans and Heinrich.”

Hans, the final boss that has already been completed, and Heinrich, a rapidly growing hero candidate.

He was never insufficient to be called a hero candidate.

The bishop-level divine power he reached this time was at a level that only the Holy Knights commanders had.

Of course, the actual weapon skills and experience had to be far inferior to them, but that part could somehow be compensated for with later efforts and Heinrich’s skills.

‘It’s also very nice to get “Blessing: Lightsword”. It’s an attack that can cut the dark attribute like a piece of paper.’

It didn’t matter now whether it was a purely timely realization of Heinrich’s own power, or whether a supporter who was watching provided support for a dramatic effect.

‘It’s important that that power is perfectly suited to the hero of the heroic story!’

This time, he succeeded in making a strong impression on the eyes of the high-ranking denominations, so it can be said that the benefits that can be gained by doing this have been taken to the limit.

‘Of course, the biggest benefit is other than that.’

His gaze turned to the floor of the room.

yourself—

The floor of the room was dyed black in an instant, and a black seal slowly rose from below.

A skeleton wearing ragged robes after a fierce battle.

Now it was Hans who became the immortal king.

Because of the thorough hiding, the energy did not leak out, but just looking at its existence gave me a chilling feeling as if my soul was frozen.

‘The atmosphere is not really a joke.’

In fact, the ability he had was no joke.

＜object information＞

-Object Name: Hans

-Race: Undead (Immortal King)

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

-Individual Characteristics: 「Heart of Immortality」, 「Evil Wisdom」, 「Forbidden Knowledge」, 「Way of Magic」, 「Eye of the Abyss」, 「Magic Domination」

-Speciality: By fully inheriting the ‘Heart of the Immortal King’, he became the 3rd King of Immortality, a catastrophe in the Auterica dimension. Black magic is supplied infinitely through the heart. As long as the heart is not destroyed, it constantly regenerates. He transcended death and became the king of the dead and the enemy of all the living.

The “Eye of the Abyss” that I had already used was not an ability that could be used indefinitely, but the effect was very satisfactory.

“Heart of Immortality” had the effect of strengthening all the skills he had, such as “Evil Wisdom” and “Forbidden Knowledge”, beyond the extent of strengthening existing abilities.

In addition to that, basic magic control has been strengthened with “Magic Domination”, and it is now possible to take away some of the control of the opponent…

‘This is the final evolution of the spell-using profession.’

It was indeed the Demon King himself.

In addition to that, if you didn’t directly hit the heart of the subspace, there was no meaning in taking damage, so it was nothing like immortality.

‘That’s what made this play a success.’

The appearance of Hans, whose heart was pierced through and worn out by divine power, was too good to be true.

Since 「Blessing: Lightsword」 did not have the power to divide the space, it was naturally restored immediately.

Heinrich needed a considerable recovery period in the aftermath of the curse for a more dramatic production, but it was also a hero’s ordeal, and it was inevitable.

In this way, the prelude to the operation titled ‘Home Theater: The Demon King and the Hero’ ended smoothly.

Hans, who suffered a blow from the set-up, will have to work on Earth for a while, but in the meantime, he will have to clean up the mess.

So now all that’s left is…

‘It’s gold! It’s time to settle the admission fee.’

It was a play for all continents.

Of course, it took time for the aftermath of this incident to spread to other places.

Its direct influence still remained only within the denomination, but there are rewards for achievements, so the amount of karma given right now would not be so small.

『Karma Shop』

『Enhance Unique Skills (800,000)』

『Status Enhancement – View Details』

『Retained Karma – 1,641,132』

‘Hey, it’s about a million or so?’

A point where the awakened sent to another world can return to Earth at once.

It was the karma I got from just one incident.

‘The scale of that single incident was rather large.’

Anyway, it was good for you.

Without hesitation, he immediately chose to enhance his unique skill.

I felt the headache I had felt over and over again, and realized that I was able to create another avatar.

and···.

《The unique skill grows and the potential blooms. Acquire the special skill “Customizing”.

It is now possible to change various settings only once per avatar.

‘this is···!’

Isn’t it a custom-made service that makes you think for hours before creating a character in the game?

My hands got itchy because I wanted to try it right away.

And just then, Hans, who was standing in front of him, caught his eye.

As the other avatars were busy with their own work, Hans was the only avatar that could be tested right away.

Also, if you can change your appearance with “Customizing”, you may be able to return to your human form again!

With such expectations, I immediately used “Customizing” through Hans…

I was immediately at a loss for words.

-Smooth Skull, Crayon Skull, Cracked Skull…

-Round orbit, raised orbit, drooping orbit…

-Smooth teeth, pointy teeth, vampire teeth…

A detailed list came to mind.

Not only that, but you can also shape your own skull as you like through fine adjustment!

‘…were not able to overcome the limits of the race.’

In fact, as Hans usually wears a mask and can’t even build relationships, changing his appearance wasn’t a particularly helpful ability.

‘If you need it, you can also apply illusion magic over it. Now that the level of magic has gone up even more, it won’t go unnoticed.’

He rationalized himself and looked at other functions, but unfortunately, the only thing Hans could use was to change the appearance.

Because the ‘initial status setting’ included in the ‘customizing’ was an ability that was limited only to the avatar that was just being created.

‘But where is this? Now, can I adjust my abilities in advance according to my future job?’

Now, his stats were boasting an even higher number overall through the distribution of points.

You can quickly adapt to any field, but it is inevitable that your efficiency will decrease.

But now, that simple ability can be specialized in one thing.

Wizards are like intelligence and magic, and warriors are like strength and stamina.

‘Now that we are able to create a new avatar, let’s try it right away. What direction should I go this time…’

That moment when you want to use “Customization” to create your avatar.

“uh?”

Suddenly, a piece of information flashed through my mind.

Skills do not reveal all information from the beginning.

This was the reason why it was important to raise the proficiency of a new skill by unlocking information about a specific function when you realized it yourself or achieved a certain condition.

‘no! It’s not important now!’

As such, the newly realized function had unbelievable potential.

‘It’s possible to create an avatar from a related race through a medium!’

The word ‘media’ was very vague, but I could naturally understand what it was.

I headed towards the flowerpot in the corner of the living room.

The eco-friendly air purifier Cecily gave me… No, the ‘dried branch of the world tree’ was there.

‘I’ve liked it quite a bit so far.’

Unfortunately, it was unavoidable, so I grabbed it and pulled it out of the pot.

Because this was the medium that made it possible to create an avatar as an ‘elf’.
