49. A New Crisis

How humans became the lord of creation.

You can’t beat a wild animal that usually roams barefoot.

But even when they become adults, they are not physically strong enough to beat other races.

It takes five human soldiers to deal with one decent beast warrior.

Does that mean the population is growing rapidly?

In the years it takes for one human to become an adult, an orc can train hundreds of warriors.

Unlike dragons that reach the 9th circle even if they are alive until adulthood, many humans die without even reaching the end even if they try until they die.

How could a race that was not superior to any other race hold the hegemony of the continent?

The answer is that mankind progresses through geniuses who appear extremely rarely among countless human beings.

A magic created by a man gifted with mana capable of competing with a dragon someday.

A swordsman’s swordsmanship to the point of slashing the sky with a single sword,

Elves are good at spirit and archery, but have no aptitude for fire, dwarves have great dexterity, but not good at riding and magic, beasts have excellent physical abilities and magic, but are poor at using mana.

There is nothing outstanding, but is it because of the human nature that can do anything,

Human beings have been able to develop by imitating geniuses that appear once every few decades or once every few centuries in any field.

In the end, it piled up and piled up, and now humans have developed to the point where they can never be defeated compared to any race on the continent.

And the elves watching Elvenheim now didn’t know it, but in front of them was a man who transcended human limitations and became a god because he couldn’t lead the field of ‘Sword’ Throughout the world.

I just stood still, not scattering any energy, just standing with my sword.

Kwa gaga gaga-

The ground shakes with each swing of his sword.

The group in the abyss, like a black tidal wave, is split in half.

Chae ah ah-

This time his sword runs across the monsters.

Koo Goo Goo Goong-

The body of the monster, cut in half at the same speed as it was running, caused a small earthquake that even elves watching from a distance could feel it.

“That’s the swordsman..!”

With a single swing of the sword, the power comparable to that of the 8th class magic, it opened the barrier believing in the world tree, but it was enough to startle the elves who were a little uneasy.

“Youhyeon..!”

From noble mtl dot com

“It’s amazing..”

Eleigh and Ephrin woke up from a short nap and felt reassured watching the man they loved.

The person who rapidly built up his divinity by showing his power beyond human in real time like this. Yoohyeon was tilting his head now.

“It’s strange.. It feels like your energy suddenly increases.”

It was Yoohyeon who was removing the abyss that had gathered in place, not knowing that he was seeing his own image vividly.

“It’s annoying to use a heavenly sword to deal with such scumbags.

Meanwhile, there were only a large number of monsters that died even with a light sword strike, and Yoohyeon’s energy was virtually infinite, so Yoohyeon was feeling bored.

Is it because the monsters that were about to come soon have run out or because they wiped out all the monsters in sight?

“Looks like you’ll understand now…”

Until now, the monsters of the abyss were just disgusting, but the monsters Yoohyeon saw were still being engulfed by the abyss that covered the world and only moved for one purpose.

They feel disgusted with anger, hatred, curses, and so on, but the source of all of them.

‘Gluttony’

Yoohyeon, who felt this primordial desire, opened his senses.

‘I feel it. A lot of their energy.’

It’s not only around Yoohyeon, the gluttonous desire is still felt around the city and throughout the forest.

Envy and anger toward the living, despair over one’s situation, and greed to satisfy the hunger felt.

Capturing all of that, Yoohyeon slowly held the sword upside down and made a wish.

‘All desires and obscenities… Are cut.’

I have reached my current state with a single sword and can cut anything I set my mind to, and now that I have decided what to cut.

Thousand Swords –

“I will break all bondage.”

-Perfect

Kwadeuk-

As his sword pierced the ground,

Quad Deuk-

All Abyssal Beasts’ heads were pierced.

“What did you do..?”

“I see… You must be tired? Seeing you put your sword in the ground…”

Unlike the elves who saw Yoohyeon kneeling on one knee and sticking his sword into the ground, the World Tree, which had its roots all over Elvenheim, could not hide its surprise.

[How can you get this kind of power..!]

In the sense of the world tree, he felt that all the beings of the abyss existing above his territory had just been annihilated by Yuhyeon’s blow.

She showed her scene to the elves, which her own senses felt in her own nature.

“Isn’t that the village of Milone?”

A person who has returned from another village finds the familiar scenery of the village,

“Looking at the guard post over there, it’s the Elvenheim border..!”

Wherever the identity is revealed by some elves, the forces of the abyss seem to have been pierced by something,

Push-

All of them were collapsing, with huge holes extending from their heads.

All the elves watching the scene felt fear at Yoohyeon’s incomprehensible deity.

It has become more feared by the strong, who can even feel how strong it is.

‘There was a sky above the sky…’

As if he laughed at those who tried to jump over the wall in front of him, Raven and the other guards felt despair at the sight of him showing a wall they would never dare to reach or jump over.

“To think that such a strong god is protecting Elvenheim… It’s really great luck.”

The guards were at least comforted by the words of Laurelin, who felt only awe because he was not a warrior who wielded a sword.

‘Yes.. He is a god…’

In that way, the moment someone was comforted and someone looked at Yoohyeon in awe, the voice of the World Tree was heard.

[Children. Now, you can completely unlock the barrier. Elvenheim is safe.]

“Finally..!”

An elf lying flat at the words of the World Tree.

“I lived..!”

As if he realized that he had lived, the elf was wiping away the tears that flowed spontaneously.

Each of the elves who had breathed mana into the words of the World Tree, which gave the news that all the elves had longed for, enjoyed the joy of survival.

-Waaa!!!

Pass–

Many people were moved by the sight of the barrier that firmly covered Elvenheim gradually disappearing and the sparkling mana falling.

When Yoohyeon was also listening to the cheers of the elves with a happy heart,

Freya’s gaze, which had been cut off while he was inside the barrier, felt again.

“It’s only been a day, how are you…”

But before he could finish his words, an urgent message came to mind.

[Why are you coming out so late!! Yoohyeon! It’s an emergency. Emergency!!]

Yoohyeon asked, frowning at the urgent message.

“Why are you making such a fuss?”

At his question, a message came to mind.

[Not long after Yoohyeon entered Elvenheim, he lost contact with the capital!]

“What? What the hell does that mean? Lost contact?”

[Even though I usually see Yoohyeon-nim, as the god of magic, I have contracts with numerous wizards, but since yesterday evening, I have been disconnected from my followers in the capital!]

“Is that serious?”

[I’m sure something happened! Judging from the fact that the other gods were also disconnected from those in the capital, at least a barrier was spread to the extent of blocking the divinity!]

I was explaining something urgently, but the moment it didn’t reach Yoohyeon well, Freya’s message hit Yoohyeon’s mind.

[Do you feel connected to the princess now? I don’t know what’s going on, but I don’t feel good..]

At her words, the moment Yoohyeon hurriedly contemplated his insides,

No.

No, I didn’t feel it.

Evidently, her energy, clearly carved into the corner of her heart…Was empty and she couldn’t feel any energy.

Not even feeling the energy of not only her, but also his pupil, Yu-eun, so Yoo-hyeon clenched her fists.

Coo goo goo goo-

Suddenly, the land around Yuhyeon was torn to pieces, and a life force like a storm spread out.

“Now.. Has the situation I thought happened..?”

Kwaji Jik–

Freya hurriedly sent a message after seeing the surrounding land and trees being shattered by the energy shed inadvertently.

[You’re not dead yet! It’s been less than a day since that unknown barrier opened, and she said that the child is the imperial princess, so she must be protected. She wouldn’t be late even now!]

At Freyja’s desperate words, Yoohyeon gnashed his teeth.

“I’ll have to be safe… Otherwise I don’t know what I’ll do…”

Chow–!

While spitting out words he might be saying to whom, Yoohyeon swung his sword and split the space toward the capital.
