Chapter 130: Chapter 130
'... Is this a dream again?'
Thomas Andrew was dreaming in the blue mist.
It was a terrible nightmare that had haunted him all his life.
- I am Thomas Andrew! Do you think I'm going to fall apart at that level!
There, he was screaming and being beaten up unilaterally.
It was no longer a fight.
'One-sided violence'
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
There was nothing he could do in the face of such a terrifying force.
No matter how hard you try to resist, all you get back is one-sided violence that you can't resist.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't beat the man in her nightmare.
- That's why I told you.
Tu Bang!
In his dreams, he always raised his chin as he spoke.
- It doesn't matter who it is.
That chilly voice.
An emotionless gaze that looks down on you from so high.
I couldn't remember the face, but the look in his eyes was so vivid in my mind that I shuddered even when I woke up from a nightmare.
In front of those eyes, I was just an underdog.
Thomas Andrew had always been incomprehensible to the dream.
Who you are.
UFC Unrestricted Champion.
A demon in the ring who has won the title of the strongest of mankind.
An absolute powerhouse who never experienced a single defeat until he retired.
He was a tyrant who always looked down at his opponents with his feet on his knees.
'That's what I, Thomas Andrew.'
But.
'Why the hell...'
Thomas Andre constantly dreamed of himself being defeated, and he was never able to "sincerely" consider himself strong.
No, rather....
-I am weak.
This is the real Thomas Andre's sincerity.
Perhaps the world would snort if they knew that he was living with these thoughts.
It would be dismissed as humility or deception.
But to my surprise, this was his true sincerity.
-I am weak.
Thomas Andrew genuinely thought he was weak.
No matter how much you train your body and hone your skills...
He grew stronger and stronger again and again, until he reached the summit and put everyone at his feet.
-I am weak. Still.
No matter how hard he trained and how strong he became, he was always thirsty.
I was anxious and nervous.
Clearly, there is no one in the world who can defeat him.
The fact that he was still weak was a compulsion in his mind.
Even after awakening as an S-class hunter, this compulsion didn't change.
A monster with powers beyond the perception of the Hunter.
Even now, when he became the strongest monster called S-class among those monsters.
'Why!'
He was still nervous.
'Why am I so weak?'
Thomas himself could not comprehend his compulsion.
'Who the hell is that man?'
The man in that nightmare that you can forget if you forget it.
The presence of the man, who was in a dream but could not be surpassed, continued to haunt him.
How ridiculous.
A human who has awakened to an S-class hunter, the pinnacle of humanity, is swayed by a mere dream.
'She might know something.'
Unable to bear it, he went to his old friend, Mrs. Norma Selner, to complain.
She believed that a renowned shaman and prophet would be able to answer her dreams.
But Norma Selner's answer confused him even more.
She looked at herself with a look of some regret.
-Thomas: The emotion you feel comes from emptiness.
- What do you mean by that?
-What filled your vessel is gone, and it's empty.
- So what the hell are you talking about?
This is how prophets always are.
No matter how frustrated I was, I could only answer questions that I couldn't decipher.
But thanks to her, I learned one thing for sure.
That his vessel must be empty.
That he had been pursuing strength all his life to fill the void that had been created.
And.
While entering the glacier dungeon and fighting the demons that suddenly attacked you.
Just like clothes get wet in the drizzle.
Without even realizing it.
- That void has been filled.
'Yes! This is it!'
Thomas Andrew realized at that moment.
Something that he had longed for all his life was filling him inside!
'Is This Real Power?'
Finally, the puzzle he lacked was put together.
'This I am! Thomas Andre!'
[... Now! It's perfect!]
Kuwaaa
Thomas Andre, who had been floundering in a dream, opened his eyes.
He instinctively realized the true nature of his power.
[Give me strength, O Itarim!]
That 'instinct' guided his body to his mind.
And I will remind those weak human beings who are fearless and unaware of their own strength, what true fear is!
――――――!
He completely unleashed the power that had filled him within.
And began to destroy everything in sight.
In the face of its absolute power, the soldiers of the black shadows who rushed to stop him melted helplessly.
However.
A tiny human with a feeble but unpleasant aura swerved unstoppably toward him, slicing through the soldiers of black shadows.
[Aaaaaa
Thomas Andre roared and exuded power.
However, even in the face of such overwhelming power, the little man did not back down, glaring at himself with a blazing gaze and muttering:
"Esil."
The voice reached Esil, who was with the Scavenger Hunters.
"Come in."
Shoowaaa
[Volkan's horns feast on demonic spirits.]
At that moment, Esil's spirit body transformed the two horns of Volkan, causing two horns to sprout above the guardian's head.
[Equip 'Item: Volkan's Horn'.]
['Buff: Desire to Destruction' is applied, increasing physical damage by 300%.]
"Going with all your might."
[Use 'Skill: Wind of the Meadow'.]
[Temporarily increases movement speed by 30%.]
[Temporarily increases Attack Speed by 30%.]
[Use 'Skill: Giant's Armor'.]
Swaaaaa
The cool breeze blowing through a blizzard makes the guardian's silver hair flutter.
Thomas Andre Annie The body of the guardian running towards the ice dragon began to grow larger with each step.
And.
[Use 'Skill: Rigid Technique'.]
A black stream of air around your arms.
Suho gathered all his strength and slammed into the ice dragon's massive body.
Boom!
[How dare you!]
Thomas Andrew was furious.
He was trying to stand up to himself with his strength!
[Are you trying to compete with this 'me'?]
It was ridiculous.
I didn't think this Thomas Andre would look ridiculous to this kid.
"Do you think you can stand up to me?"
Boom!
In response to his will, the ice dragon slammed into the guardian's body with immense force.
And just as I was about to crush him.
Suho's eyes lit up as he took the power from below.
'The Power of the Dominator!'
Shwaak!
At that moment, the black air current on Suho's arm stretched forward.
And.
Boom!
[...!]
The invisible hand.
Guardian has been in it since level 1
According to Ver, the "power of the ruler," which he had been able to use skillfully since he was a toddler, slammed one of the ice dragon's legs hard from the side.
Then.
Whoops!
!
The ice dragon's leg snapped to the side.
At that moment, the ice dragon could not bear its own weight and leaned to one side.
and uplifting.
Kuwaa
Suho used the heavy weight in reverse and threw the ice dragon with all his might.
And exclaimed.
"Mother!"
Now...!
At that moment, Cha Hae-in raised his eyebrows.
"Yes."
He then sent the "Sword of Light" that he had poured out with all his might into a single point.
The goal is Thomas Andre!
With a flash!
[Plastic!]
A blue ear exploded from Thomas Andre's eyes as he roared as he stared straight at the blinding light.
Oooh!
The ice dragon wrapped its wings around its body, blocking the sword of light as it flew with full force.
Crackle!
The light flew through the thick ice.
At the center of that power, Cha Hae-in gritted his teeth.
'It was shallow again!'
It was daunting to deal with a single Thomas Andre, but his existence was protected by a great layer of ice.
But this should be enough.
In the plan of the guardian of one's son!
"Arrived."
The ice dragon is being carried and struck, and even the sword of light is pushed back.
Before I knew it, the "Spring of the Echo Forest" had arrived behind it.
Splash!
The moment the ice dragon's hind legs step into the steaming water.
―――――――!
The many ice spirits that made up the ice dragon began to disperse in all directions.
[Ugh! What is this...!]
The ice dragon's body suddenly began to melt away at a rapid rate, revealing the Thomas Andre figure within.
I could see the embarrassment on his face, but that was it.
[What a trick!]
The ice around him had vanished, but the power of Thomas Andre had remained within.
No, he was far stronger than ever!
[Haha! What are you going to do now? Do you dare to stand up to me with a depleted S-class Hunter and a bunch of gobblemen!]
Thomas Andrew smiled arrogantly as he landed in front of the hot springs.
And immediately opened his power.
[Enhance!]
Skill Enhancement.
This power was one of the basic skills used by so many tanks, but it was the moment when this skill was unleashed by Thomas Andre.
This is the true terror that will descend on this earth.
But.
By the moment he arrived, Suho's plans had been completed.
From the beginning, Suho asked the King of the Yetis, the Lord of the Cold, one thing.
'Does the effect of the Echo Forest Spring work for the monarch?'
There are a total of three ingredients for the Divine Tree of Life.
Purified Blood of the Demon King.
Fragments of the World Tree.
And the spring water of the Echo Forest.
I didn't know what the shards of the World Tree were, but I knew exactly what the spring water in the Echo Forest was.
If the water from the Echo Forest can purify the Blood of the Demon Lord, what effect will it have on the Apostle of Itarim, who is now subduing the spirit of Thomas Andrew?
Suho remembered what he had once heard from Ver.
The 'gods' of our dimension were also 'Itarim', and the beings created by dividing light and darkness were the rulers and monarchs.
Then.
What about the 'apostles' created by the other Itarim?
'What if the Apostle of Itarim is also similar to rulers and monarchs?'
"What would happen if I used the spring water of the Echo Forest on that Apostle of the Itarim?"
To his question, Szilard, the Lord of Frost, gave the correct answer.
[The King of the Yetis, the Lord of the Frost, nods with a sneaky smile.]
[King of the Yetis, Lord of the Frost, activates "Sanctuary: Spring of the Echo Forest."]
!
[...!]
At that moment, the steam that had been floating above the hot springs froze all at once, grabbing Thomas Andre.
[Keep up the tricks!]
Chop Duk!
Thomas Andrew shook off the frost that surrounded his entire body as if he were the same.
But even that frost was the spring of the Echo Forest.
[Item: Echo Forest's Spring Water]
Difficulty to obtain: ??
Type: Consumables
It is a mysterious spring in the Echo Forest.
When drunk or applied to the body, it has a neutralizing effect on toxins.
[...?!]
Thomas Andrew's eyes widened, drenched in the spring water of the Echo Forest.
Then, suddenly, he shuddered and hunkered down in agony.
What have you done to me...!]
"Purification."
The answer came from the mouth of Sirkka, who was just one step behind him.
Sirka muttered as he watched the forest spirits disperse from the hot springs.
"This spiritual spring will awaken your mind from the possession of evil spirits. That's why these hot springs exist in the depths of Sanctuary."
[Aaa
Of course, the Apostle of Itarim would be far more than a mere elemental.
However, the spring water of the Echo Forest is the sanctuary of the "Lord of Bitter Cold", who is the equivalent of the Apostle of Itarim.
It was a spiritual water that could purify even the blood of the Demon Lord...
Aa
In the end, the blue demon couldn't stand it and bounced off Thomas Andre's body.
At that moment.
Gulp.
The power of Cha Hae-in, who had been drinking a mana potion from Suho, returned.
"Is that the main body?"
Cha Hae-in raised the magic power of his whole body and glared at the "Apostle of Itarim" who floated in the air.
And now...
Thomas Andre, who had come to his senses, also raised his head, glaring at the Apostle of Itarim.
"How dare that crazy bastard cross me?"
Quad Duc.
Gnashing his teeth with anger on his face.
