Maxed Out Leveling Novel

Chapter 148

53. Allegorical Lines (3)

The combined army of humans and dragon blood was able to fight the demon king army more easily than expected.

To some extent, it is ‘better than expected’. No matter how good the conditions overlap, the difference in power is close to ten times. Even if they are commanded by the god of war, they are inevitably defeated in the end.

But the victory was for the Allies.

The commandos returned before the tide had completely turned, and the demon king army, which was hit in the back by 11 commandos who were stronger than the 1,000 allied forces in the front combined, collapsed.

The battle ended with the death of the last intermediate demon.

The death toll alone was over 200, and the damage was so great that no one was injured, but it was a good result for fighting ten times as many enemies.

“Mr. Shin Hyeon!”

Lee Ji-hye, who found the commando, ran to the first place.

As if flying with her weary body, she staggered and fell as if she had lost her strength in her last moments.

Of course, it was an intentional act, but Cha Shin Hyeon isn’t hard-hearted enough to turn her away without knowing it or not. At least her to her.

Cha Shin Hyeon accepted with her bitter smile as Lee Ji-hye was brought to her as if she had collapsed.

“You are safe! Aren’t you hurt?”

“I was fine. No, it’s not safe… But I think you have more problems than me.”

I noticed her from the moment she saw her running from a distance, but it was even worse when she looked up close.

Of course, the large and small wounds on her body are serious, but the scars on her face are even more serious. Two furrows starting from the forehead and extending to the left cheek, as if scratched by a wild beast.

Her bleeding seemed to have been temporarily stopped, but her beautiful face had been engraved with a large indelible scar. Her left eye, which had been in the path of her wounds, had long since lost its light.

“it’s okay.”

Lee Ji-hye tried to smile at her.

“I suffered a bit because two high-ranking demons attacked me at once. No limbs were blown away, just a few scratches on the face, what?”

“It’s okay! the snow flew away If it was a little deeper, it would have reached the brain.”

Of course, she wasn’t hurt because she wanted to get hurt, so she couldn’t be blamed. Breathing a sigh of relief inside her, Cha Shin Hyeon reached out.

His hand glided gently over her skin, as if stroking Lee Ji-hye. A young energy flowed gently like a thread from her fingertips and touched Lee Ji-hye’s face.

“uh… … ?”

Lee Ji-hye opened her eyes wide.

Her wounds began to slowly heal as if she were going back in time. Her pain, which she had endured without showing her expression, disappeared, and her warm and clear energy took its place.

Her eyeballs, which had been ripped to pieces by her yogi’s claws, are also regenerated. Even her extremely delicate optic nerve was revived, and her left eye regained her original brilliance.

Cleric’s regenerative skill repairs even wounds that cannot be healed by modern medicine, but it is by no means universal. Simply put, the more difficult the medical operation is, the more difficult it is to treat with skill.

Ignoring all of that, Cha Shin Hyeon’s energy completely cured Lee Ji-hye in a short time.

“Oh, what happened? What is this… … .”

Lee Ji-hye asked, stuttering in surprise.

Obviously, Cha Shin Hyeon was learning cleric-type skills. Because she was the one who saved her skill cube. She also had a few occasions to use the replay skill.

However, his level was still at the level of an ordinary Priest. Since she had nothing to use on a regular basis, her skill level did not go up, and unlike her martial arts and magic, she honestly converted MP into strength and used her skills with her strength. It was the same way as a normal hunter, so there was no reason for the effect to be different.

But this is something.

It’s a deceptive healing ability that can be slapped lightly on the cheek of the highest-ranking Priest. When did Cha Shin Hyeon get this ability?

She said, “She came to enlightenment while fighting the Demon King. To be precise, I would have to say that she has only now faced the realization she had previously attained.”

Cha Shin Hyeon replied with a faint smile. He continued as he saw Alex and Elena running over here, who had found him a step late—maybe with consideration for Lee Ji-hye.

“I can no longer call myself a warrior. I can’t even call him a wizard. He was not originally a priest.””what… Do you mean?”

“I would say that the nature of the power to deal with has changed. If I were to give it a name, it would be a bit embarrassing to call it a god, so I guess I should just say it as good. Or, it can be called the soul because it is a power that comes from within. A level of pre-marital power would be appropriate.”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t understand.”

“It was a joke. To show you, this is roughly what it means.”

Cha Shin Hyeon tilted her head slightly and looked up at the sky quietly.

A wind began to blow around him.

It was a gentle breeze that seemed to exist and was barely felt by even Lee Ji-hye in front of her, but the power contained in it was beyond imagination.

The power that Cha Shin Hyeon called the preoccupational power spread throughout the battlefield. With the exception of the dead, all were entangled in their premarital power.

“Huh?”

When people with sensitive senses feel the subtle aura surrounding their body and have doubts.

The colorless wind changed and took on auspicious colors. At the same time, the power of premonition was activated, and the wounds of all the wounded began to heal.

“What, what?”

It was a scene that could not be called a miracle.

If you are a high-level Priest, you can apply a group buff to dozens of people at once. However, they also use advanced skills such as healing and regeneration on only one person at a time. It was a job that not only took a lot of energy, but also consumed a lot of mental power.

The act of healing a large number of 800 people at once, and regenerating not only the light wounded, but also the serious, life-threatening, was an incredible miracle.

With the ability of the hunters, it is impossible to accurately recognize the premarital power, nor know who the owner of the premarital power is.

However, he did not know how great the divine five-color energy and the transcendental power contained within it were. The stats and skills that the Goddess gave to all mankind, a mysterious power that touches even more than that.

“Oh God… … .”

A quiet prayer flowed from the mouth of a certain Hunter. From those who truly close their eyes and pray, to those who are silently meditating. Everyone’s reaction was different, but the inner feelings were the same.

“… … .”

Beings stronger than Hunters, such as dragons, did not seek God. Since I had reached the level of knowing where the source of the pre-marriage power was, I realized that the owner of the power was Cha Shin Hyeon.

However, the thrill of the absurd power contained within the premarital power was the same. They lost their words and just stared blankly at Cha Shin Hyeon.

So did Alex and Elena.

While approaching Cha Shin Hyeon, the two men, whose injuries had already been healed, asked with dismay.

“The death penalty, what happened? It’s not even sexual.”

“It’s not even magic. What the hell did you do?”

“That distinction has become meaningless.”

Cha Shin Hyeon sighed softly.

“I changed myself to defeat the Demon King. Neither aerodynamics, nor magical powers, nor stamina, but at the same time, it was as if I had obtained a power that could be anything.”

“… It’s almost god, isn’t it?”

“If ghosts are gods, then they are gods.”

Cha Shin Hyeon looked down at her hands for a moment. The eyes of the three people also naturally turned downwards, and then they quickly turned into astonishment.

For a moment, Cha Shin Hyeon’s hand trembled and became translucent, then returned to its original color. It’s like an old TV that gave out a noisy screen for a while.

“Now, did I get it wrong?”

“I saw it right. That’s why I didn’t want to go over the last wall.”

Cha Shin Hyeon mumbled bitterly.

From the moment he opened the door to his fable and realized that his essence had changed, he knew it was going to be like this.

The state of taking off the human mask and becoming a god was not a rhetorical expression.

He really lost a human body.

He thought there was going to be a seeming change, such as a broken body or only a soul, but he was puzzled that it proceeded remarkably quietly.

However, in any case, the essence of Cha Shin Hyeon has definitely changed, and Cha Shin Hyeon herself could clearly recognize it.

His body was outwardly the same as before, but there was a crucial difference. As the noise phenomenon just showed, his body no longer exists alone with a fixed shape like a normal living thing.

“I don’t know if the fable is something to celebrate from the beginning.”

Alex drooled like a former angel who was far from the gate.

“If you follow the death sentence’s explanation, doesn’t it mean that you are maintaining your body with the power of the deep sword?”

“It’s like that.”

The body, whose shape was not fixed, was going to scatter like a haze over and over again if we didn’t pay attention. Only by holding on to it using willpower, that is, the power of the heart sword, it maintains its original form.

Elena tilted her head.

“What happens when that power is released? Will you go up to the frontier like a legend?”

“Well, I don’t know. If there is a real world, it might be, and it might turn into a ghost. But I don’t want to try it. Because I may never be able to go back.”

“You’re not suddenly disappearing like this, are you? Yes?”

Lee Ji-hye asked with an anxious voice. Cha Shin Hyeon calmed her down.

“It’s not going to happen right now. It’s just a matter of being able to keep the status quo forever… I’ll have to do some research on my condition, so let’s wait and see.”

In fact, you won’t be able to find out much on your own if you do research, but fortunately there are people who can give you an answer about your condition.

Recalling the faces of the two gods, Cha Shin Hyeon ordered the cleanup of the battlefield.

* * *

Even after the victory, there was a lot of post-war processing to be done.

St. Petersburg was devastated and hundreds of kilometers to Moscow were destroyed. Many civilians and hunters died, and dozens of valuable high-ranking hunters also died. How much was the war cost that was poured out? The cost of restoration was astronomical enough to stagger Russia’s national finances.

At this time, for some reason, countries around the world voluntarily stepped in and supported Russia. In particular, the active leadership of the United States and China was of great help. The general public did not know the English language, but Cha Shin Hyeon’s breath was in it.

The dragon blood was also busy. The dungeons of St. Petersburg, which were completely destroyed, and the dungeons of the Qilian Mountains, where Saltion, etc. sneaked over, dragons took their place again.

Since Calfadin and Saltion have confirmed that there are no more rifts that can pass through more than magical spirits, if you keep the rifts that have now increased to 9, you will not be hit in the head like this one.

Oh, of course, all those cheesy (?) things are done by subordinates. Cha Shin Hyeon was naturally freed from such a headache.

After observing the situation for roughly three or four days, Cha Shin Hyeon locked herself in his mansion.

He lay comfortably on the bed and closed his eyes.

oh oh-

An extremely focused mind suddenly led Cha Shin Hyeon into the space of imagery. An unknown place he had seen before, all white, greeted him.

Image training is possible for masters above a certain level, and there is a unique martial art that builds an image space arbitrarily among Kangho’s martial arts.

However, those frivolous things and Cha Shin Hyeon’s were completely different. Because his imaginary world was a kind of privilege given to those who set foot in the realm of God outside of humans.

He said, ‘Did you say you could?’

Cha Shin Hyeon, who stood alone and looked around, built up his will. After he had a strong desire to invite the two of them back then, a message appeared in front of his eyes after a while.

[Can I come in?]

Cha Shin Hyeon nodded his head.

Afraid to accept, a man and a woman appeared in front of Cha Shin Hyeon. Gicheok has a wish to pay a little and go.

“Draw a desolate place without change.”

The man clicked his tongue.

“A little bit of decoration, though.”“Can you decorate it?”

“of course. Isn’t this your imaginary world? This is a space where the owner can decorate as he pleases. It’s no longer difficult for you to deal with willpower, is it?”

“Hmm, it’s the same concept as the heart sword.”

As a test, Cha Shin Hyeon’s will was moved.

A round table suddenly appeared between them. Then a soft sofa surrounds them outside.

“I think it’s roughly the same.”

Cha Shin Hyeon said while sitting on the sofa and measuring the softness. With a simple movement of his will, he reproduced the furniture in his living room here.

“Sit down.”

“thank you.”

The two visitors did not turn down Cha Shin Hyeon’s offer. They each took a comfortable seat. With the table in between, the three naturally came to face each other.

It was awkward because there were only tables and sofas in a white space, but I stopped thinking about it because it was too cumbersome to imagine. I just wanted to sit down. Decorating is not important now.

“Do you think you have enough time to talk now?”

The woman spoke first.

“Weren’t you watching the situation in the lower world?”

“We are not the remote and broad gods in myths. They don’t get involved unless it’s necessary, and it’s very rare that they feel the need. The Demon King’s invasion was interesting, but I’m not interested in the aftermath.”

“is it? Well, in that regard, I am the same. Anyway, there are enough conditions to focus on the conversation.”

“like. Then let’s talk frankly. You must have many questions, right?”

“okay. There is one thing I want to make sure of first. May I ask a question?”

The woman nodded her head softly. Cha Shin Hyeon continued.

“Two phenomena that mankind calls revelation. A being who distributed Mystic Cubes to mankind and gave them a status window. Is that what you did?”

“Yes. Did I tell you last time? I am the being that mankind calls a goddess.”

“So, you?”

Cha Shin Hyeon’s gaze turned to the man.

“Apart from sending a message when I threw a heartbeat at the rift, what is your role? I don’t think it’s just an existence that assists the goddess.”

“My role is not too small to be dismissed as an assistant. In fact, it is a complementary relationship. Of course, strictly speaking of master and wealth, I am the latter.”

The man shrugged.

“Actually, you know me.”

“You know?”

“okay. Isn’t it true that you have to meet someone in person to know someone? You never met me, but you know me well.”

Cha Shin Hyeon’s eyebrows narrowed at the enigmatic question and answer. The man said with a smirk.

“I am a senior who walked the same path you walked before you. Oh, except for what I did on Earth, of course.”

“… Do you mean only Moorim?”

“That’s right. I don’t want to hurt your head needlessly, so just tell me.”

The man’s mouth fell slowly after a moment of moxibustion with a round face.

“When I was a human, my name was Baekuncheon.”

“… what?”

Cha Shin Hyeon’s eyes fluttered as if they had met a ripple.

As if enjoying the shaking of such emotions, the man finished his speech.

“My nickname was Heavenly Warrior (天照武神).”
