[Whoa— this is an unexpected income.]

Legacy was not a material thing such as any wealth or magic tool.

The first Immortal King made half of the continent a land of death, and the 2nd generation destroyed an empire.

It was a feat that, no matter how strong, could not have been accomplished alone.

‘Of course, there must have been subordinates who followed him.’

In the first place, there was no way that he could plan the continent with his own power.

It must have been possible because there were people who supported him with advanced thinking, not just undead following orders.

‘According to the will of the Immortal King, the immortal army at the forefront of conquest of the continent.’

Those who once turned half of the continent into a land of death were the legacy left behind by the Immortal King.

Due to their nature, the more the war continued, the stronger their forces were.

The soldiers who fought valiantly against the endless stream of corpses became part of them when they died.

Naturally, the leadership of the continent, including the Shinju Church, organized a death squad and chose to aim directly at the head, and in the end, the operation was successful after countless sacrifices.

It is the same in both cases when the Immortal King issued.

‘It must be said that the power of the continent is great. The second generation took great care in their own safety so as not to repeat the mistakes of their predecessors, but they suffered.’

So, the amount of damage suffered by the continent itself was less than two units, but the number of strong men who were sacrificed to break through the executives protecting the Immortal King was much higher than that.

‘At the end of the day, the army under the Immortal King has been blown up.’

What was important here was their whereabouts.

Most of them were subjugated by the angry continental people, but there were quite a few who escaped at the discretion of those who led the troops.

There were times when they recklessly hide in the backcountry, and there were times when they made a dungeon and locked themselves in.

And the method that many of them chose is…

‘Sealing yourself on the border with the abyss.’

Neither the earth nor the abyss, but somewhere on the borderline.

It was a dimensional gap that drifted meaninglessly in unobservable time.

At that time, the dimensional wall was weakened by countless scratches all over the world, and the method that was possible as an undead was the safest and most uncertain method.

Continental people could have avoided it, but there was no promise of when they would wake up.

They would have slept like that forever until the next Immortal King was born and brought them out.

‘But who just opened the abyss?’

It didn’t just weaken the wall, it even made a hole in it.

[Ah— I can feel it. Those who fell asleep on the border. There are quite a few left on the ground…]

What the previous Immortal King’s thoughts left behind was not just information.

To put it bluntly, it was more like handing over the original contract.

If I had been devoured by my heart from the beginning and became one with them, I would have realized it naturally, but I only found out now by blocking it at the source.

‘I wish I had known by now. Even if I had known in advance anyway, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything until the abyss opened.’

It’s not good that the abyss is open, but as long as it’s open, shouldn’t you take care of everything you can take care of?

[…More

It was the Daebeop that had such an impact on the continent, but he probably wasn’t the only one who noticed it.

That fact would be best known to those who did it, so they probably left as soon as they achieved their purpose.

‘But that doesn’t mean you can’t help but visit.’

First of all, Hans needed to check the scene himself.

He concentrated on the spot and traced the flow of energy again.

As if the ceremony was over, I didn’t feel the violent movement as before…

It wasn’t a problem for him.

Whoops-

Enormous black magic that is concentrated in an instant and arranged according to Hans’ will.

The mystery thus constructed became a thick darkness and enveloped his body.

[I wish there was still something left.]

The Immortal King Hans headed to the southern part of the continent.

***

The basement of the Great Hall of Pikaol where the holy sword was sealed.

win—

fizzy—!

‘But it’s still like this. Shouldn’t it be over when you pull out the holy sword?’

For some reason, the pain that burned Heinrich’s hand and the spark that ran through his body continued without end.

He still held the holy sword that was still clenching his hand, and looked silently at the pounding abyss.

If it had been someone else who could not understand the situation outside, he would have been embarrassed by this sudden situation, but he was already aware of the situation and was thinking about how to respond.

‘I think I’m being influenced by the open abyss this time.’

It must have been because the seal was weakened as the holy sword fell out by himself.

The words that the saint said, ‘The Great Temple alone is enough’ must have been when the abyss was opened and the situation was not in mind.

Then the simplest solution would be to insert the holy sword back into the abyss.

profit…

At that moment, the continuous ringing of the palms began to slowly cease.

The energy of the Holy Sword, which had been roaming around her body wildly and smashing it here and there, was also quiet.

《The entity has achieved Enlightenment by fulfilling the condition. Acquire the special skill 「Blessing: Holy Sword」.」

When I opened both hands that were holding the handle, I saw the stigma of the Shinshuang Order engraved on the palm of my hand like a brand.

‘The energy that entered my body has settled down in a stable way. I guess it wasn’t just a test, but a process of fully accepting the Holy Sword?’

Heinrich continued to watch the abyss and looked at 「Blessing: Holy Sword」.

‘Not only can attack power and body be strengthened with the energy of the holy sword, but also free form transformation and subspace function in the stigma of the palm?’

There was no need to mention the quality and divine power amplification function as a weapon.

Indeed, it can be said that it is the highest quality weapon that can be obtained without any magic tools.

I can’t even get these things anywhere.

But just because of such a small abyss, there is no way to give up the holy sword and go out!

‘It’s not hard. What’s in my hands is already mine.’

At first, he was in a position to retrieve the Holy Sword at the orders of the saint.

I didn’t even consider the option of giving up on this from the beginning.

In addition to that, there is a barrier in the Great War, so an abyss like that cannot have a special effect…

Knock Knock Knuckle~!

At that moment, the abyss suddenly begins to shake violently.

Although the surrounding barrier was emitting light, its size was slightly increased compared to before.

And finally….

Whoops—!

Something came out of the abyss.

Crazy-!

At the same time, the pure white lightning that started from the surrounding barrier attacked it.

After that, numerous divine barriers that start to activate simultaneously.

‘After all, there is no way the Juju Church is so lax. Everything was prepared But that’s…’

A pair of arms protruding out of the abyss in the white light bouncing around, wriggling at the subsequent attack.

[Uh-huh— what is this? At least in a place like this!]

The sound of scraping metal echoed from the hole in the abyss.

‘yes?’

It felt something familiar.

[Keep… Dirty church bastards. But I can’t give up like this!]

Whoops!

As if tearing a hole in the abyss, the other hand came out.

The attack grew stronger, but he didn’t stop, trembling his arms.

[Huh… Now that I’m back…]

Then, slowly, the upper body began to rise.

He also looked very familiar to Heinrich.

It was because I had been fighting with him until a while ago.

‘Acrich who appeared in the third trial?’

In fact, it looks like nothing but ragged robes and bones, but there is still a feeling, isn’t it?

In addition, he now had new information obtained through unexpected events.

Hans’ analysis based on Heinrich’s observations immediately jumped out.

‘Dwell McCain, you were the bodyguard of the Immortal King.’

It was one of the bodyguards that the previous Immortal King had deployed around him to prepare for the death squad.

His rank was roughly in the top 50, and he had a talent for commanding troops rather than person-to-person combat.

[I somehow managed to get out of this place… huh?]

At that moment, the eyes of Acrich Dwell and Heinrich, who were crawling out of the hole, met.

“·················ogue.”

[··········.]

After a moment of silence.

Dwell, who made eye contact with him, slowly turned his head to look around, then began to scan Heinrich up and down again.

The interior is full of patterns and prayers of the Jushin Church and a space that exudes a godly energy.

The pressure of the divine barrier that beats his body nonstop and…

Even the hero who looked down at him while holding the holy sword right in front of him.

There was no way he could not recognize the sword that was the symbol of that warrior.

How many colleagues were cut out over that, would you forget that?

In the end, even the King of Immortality, whom he was following, fell by that sword, and had no choice but to escape until he sealed himself.

to promise for the future.

By the way.

As he was about to seize the long-awaited opportunity and escape from the border, he encountered a man who seemed to be a hero of the time.

[···Oh my, it’s like a dog….]

It was a situation in which he couldn’t help but swear.

While Dwell was unable to do this or that, Heinrich was quietly looking at him and organizing his thoughts.

‘Are you drifting off the border and sucked up by the influence of the abyss being opened? The reason he came out of the ordeal was that the Holy Sword read the information of the guy who was floating in the near phase?’

There, the guy’s condition was horrendous.

It’s good to get out of the border naturally, but it’s in the middle of the Great Hall where the Holy Sword was sealed.

No matter how lucky they were to get out of this place, they would have been destroyed without even taking a step outside of the Great Hall.

Daeshinjeon was such a place in the first place.

[Ouch… sh*t! Why doesn’t this come in…]

At that moment, Dwell, who was watching Heinrich, hurriedly went back into the hole and let out a sigh of disappointment.

Judging that the situation was not good, he chose to be sealed again, but even that had failed.

Due to the force that was forcibly pulled up from below, the passage he had already exited had become a one-way street.

Now I can’t really go anywhere.

‘I’m sorry, but I’ll have to deal with it here.’

He could be Hans’ subordinate, so it was a waste to deal with it like this, but in the current situation, there was nothing he could do.

Even if you let him live at your own will, you won’t be able to get out of here anyway, so it’s better to end it with your own hands.

‘Well? That?’

Just as Heinrich was grabbing the holy sword to deal with him, a familiar thing caught his eye through Akrich’s robes.

It’s something I’ve already seen once.

It was the source of the Archrich he had once crushed.

‘Well, I must have summoned the source and took it and hid at the border. Because otherwise there is no meaning to hide. …Wait a minute, if that’s the case…’

When I saw that, a good idea immediately came to mind.

Heinrich smiled meaningfully, approached him, and slowly raised his sword.

With the blessing of ‘increase’, divine power like anger rushed to the holy sword, and the blessings of ‘light sword’ and ‘holy sword’ combined to give the sword a brilliant golden color.

and.

He ran straight to Dwell and swung his sword.

[The cursed slave of the Goddess…! Do you think I will end this easily!]

Of course, dark magic was spewing out of the body of the man who couldn’t just suffer, but the situation was very different from the time of the ordeal.

Jigsaw—!

Because it is the center of the Great War, it cannot even summon undead, and the energy of the Holy Barrier rushes in from all directions and bites him nonstop.

Heinrich, who had just been released from the seal, was not fully healed, and who had the holy sword in his hand, cut through his black magic he had already dealt with like radish…

[···Cuckoo! sh*t-!]

In the end, the gnome was not able to resist much, and it burned into the sacred flames and became a handful of ashes.

Leaving only one source behind.

“Let’s see…”

Heinrich moved slowly, picking up a source of smoke that had been spread across the floor and smoked.

If we leave it as it is, it will be destroyed naturally by the power of this space, far from being revived.

woo

That was not what Heinrich wanted.

He recalled the newly acquired knowledge and raised his divine power.

And after using the “Auterica Sacred Method” by applying the divine power management technique included in “Loggia Sacred Fighting Method”—.

‘···done. Also, the seniors are great.’

It was able to ‘seal’ the source of the Acrich as it was.

It was thanks to the use of the know-how of the “Loggia Fighting Method” to deal with beings that could not be killed immediately.

Heinrich looked at the source that had crystallized hard and did not spill even a single drop of black magic, and then put it in the ‘stigmata’ of his palm.

‘It’s not very bulky, but it’s not like only a holy sword can be put in this subspace. It would be a good gift for Hans.’

How to nurture love in the gifts that come and go.

Heinrich smiled sweetly and nodded slightly.

It didn’t matter now that both of them were themselves.

Because it was a matter of feeling.
