“Do not let the Black Tower collapse!”

Jamie shouted to everyone while suppressing his raging emotions with darkness.

Two very large forces struggled to push each other away, and it wouldn’t be strange for one of them to get pushed out. That was how strong their clash was.

Ricky watched the storm of power raging behind him and rushed for the Black Tower first.

After he moved, everyone followed Ricky.

“Be careful.”

Abset left a short message of concern and disappeared with Galakios on his shoulder. Jamie, now all alone, took a deep breath and looked at the warrior.

‘Well, I cannot stand this anymore.’

He managed to stop the explosion of the warrior, but this guy was pushing him to the limit.

For the warrior to be able to make such a strong attack without even much preparation. He heard that Ra was making 12 new Gods.

One of them was the God of Gluttony, whom Isis defeated, but there were 12 Gods left.

And this guy was clearly one of them.

‘He is completely different from what I heard.’

It was said that the dead God exhausted his strength, so Isis was able to defeat him. However, even if all of his strength had returned, he wouldn’t have fallen like that.

Then, compared to that guy, how strong was this warrior?

Perhaps the strongest of the 12 new Gods?

If that were the case, then he had to defeat this one here.

Jamie’s eyes turned purple.

[Ability: Darkness]

The Darkness of Annihilation took over the explosion.

“Great Explosion.”

The explosion flashed once more.

The Darkness of Annihilation faltered as it began to get pushed back, making Jamie shocked.

He didn’t think that the Darkness of Annihilation wouldn’t be able to pierce it. Even if the source was destroyed, its root was explosion and light.

And the Darkness of Annihilation had managed to swallow up such abilities in the past.

‘I thought I had the advantage.’

Apparently, there was another secret behind the explosion. If he couldn’t figure it out, the match would last longer.

Then white wings spread behind Jamie’s back.

A brilliant white light shone, and the darkness began to transform into light.

[Fiat Lux]

Kwaaaakkkk!!

If the light was hard to pierce with darkness, then he could deal with it with the same light.

And the eastern side outside the Black Tower was engulfed in intense light.

“Grandfather. Just a little more, and it will be over.”

“Hehe. The red-haired girl has a lot of troubles.”

“Hehe. They all want us to be nice. And how long will you call me that? Just call me Venna.”

At Venna’s words, the old man, Osiris, nodded his head.

He was an old God, who was defeated by the 12 Gods and got sealed in a certain land in Avalon with a body that wouldn’t die.

For a long time, the God had been suffering from dementia, and his memories were shifting back and forth due to how horrible they were.

And now he doesn’t show any signs of it anymore.

“About that person.”

“Who?”

“The person you serve.”

“Ah. Our Master, why?”

“Is awake.”

At Osiris’s words, Venna tilted her head. She didn’t understand what ‘awake’ meant.

Osiris continued talking, like he was mumbling to himself.

“After walking in the thick darkness, he came out into the light again. It seems like someone reached out their hand into the pit that he would have never climbed up from.”

“What do you mean?”

“The end isn’t so far. And it is a pity that I cannot see the end.”

“Grandfather?”

“Red hair. If you’ve done this much, you can understand.”

Venna looked confused, and Osiris didn’t stop talking.

“That child has come to his senses.”

“No…”

“Right.”

“Master has returned to his senses? Not that insane idiot?”

She wasn’t sure if she could call her master as such, but at least to Venna, for the past three years, Jamie had been acting like an insane idiot.

“Nice.”

Venna sighed.

She wondered what to do if he continued being like that, but he was fine now, and she wanted to go and see Jamie right now.

“I will head to the Black Tower. I need to meet Master.”

“Do not go now.”

“Uh?”

She wanted to leave Osiris and head to the Black Tower immediately, but he didn’t let her go. As Venna turned around, Osiris spoke with a serious face.

“Not now.”

“W-Why not? Why do you seem so scared?”

Osiris raised his head to the sky, where the wind was blowing hard, and the clouds were moving.

“It is dangerous.”

“…?”

Why would the Black Tower be dangerous?

It was a place where its existence itself became a perfect level of defense. It was not only impossible for external attacks to succeed, but it was also difficult for intruders to survive.

Furthermore, if her master was back, the Black Tower should be more impregnable, and there would be no danger.

“There is an old brother of mine.”

“I do not understand, Grandfather.”

“I was beaten badly. Things are so ridiculous. That kid came out, but did he go into the darkness?”

“Grandfather? I cannot understand some of the words…”

“Anyway, do not go. It won’t help if you head there, and it would endanger your life.”

The wrinkles around Osiris’s eyes deepened.

‘Sun God, you are doing too much.’

To make his only real brother, who was now the only one left, act like that.

He couldn’t help but bite his tongue at the horror.

Did he have to play with fate like that?

Without mercy.

‘Mother. What do you want?’

Osiris closed his eyes, as all he could do now was pray.

“Kuk!”

Jamie stared up at the sky while pinned to the ground.

All he could see was the dark gray smoke. He got up and brushed the dust off his body.

It was already full of stains, and it seemed like cleaning it thoroughly was the only way to wash them off.

“Such a nasty one.”

They exchanged clashes several times.

All of the attacks were so extreme that the fight was so close, and it wouldn’t be so odd if one of them died from a small mistake.

In such a situation, only the warrior attacked.

Thanks to that, Jamie had to switch to defense and was exhausted from blocking the attacks.

“I am a little pissed that you are so ignorant and continuing to move forward alone.”

Jamie saw the warrior approaching from the smoke.

His armor was tanned, but other than that, nothing happened.

‘I really want to get out of this land and fight, but that guy isn’t normal.’

He told the others to protect the Black Tower, but if this continued, it would be difficult even for them to protect the tower.

He used mass teleportation because he thought it would be better to fight in a distant place where there was nothing.

‘It won’t work.’

Mana wasn’t allowed.

With that in mind, even a tolerable divinity couldn’t break away from his magi, and he realized how high the opponent’s level was.

It was hard for him to defeat it with magic alone.

He called for Balisada.

He hadn’t used this power for three years.

Until now, he thought he would hear it nagging about why he hadn’t used it, but those who didn’t like the situation should face it head-on instead of retreating.

“Activate Trinity.”

It was a God-class artifact that was created by merging Diablo Volfir’s three weapons and the black suit.

A pure white light shone around the numerous particles inside Jamie’s skin and began to get pushed out.

The Y-shaped glasses dyed both of his eyes black, and they soon turned as bright as daylight and gathered all the information around him.

His muscles’ density and the sensation that his nerves were transmitting also changed.

His entire body was full of vigor. Jamie lifted his shoulders as high as he could and then let them drop.

-It has been a long time since you called.

The familiar voice said.

“All the nagging can be done later. Be ready, Seti.”

-It has been a long time since I’ve been out, and it is now a fight. And the eerie consciousness seems to have gone away?

The eerie consciousness was Satan’s thoughts, and the reason Seti couldn’t come out was that Satan’s consciousness dominated his.

-Because you are back, I guess so.

“Mode is a sword.”

-Is he the opponent? He has a high magic resistance. Seeing that his holy power is high, he seems to be God-level or so.

“So, let’s work to the extreme.”

-You want to go against a big one right from the start. I will prepare it then.

Jamie put Balisada forward, and his aura swayed as it fused with the holy light.

The space began to tremble more. The fire dragon burst into flames, which made it seem like the sky and land were connecting.

-Shape Change Balisada Ver. Trinity.

[Mastery]

It was the ultimate ‘Futility Divide’ that his grandfather made for him.

[Extreme Movement]

Jamie stepped slightly forward with his left foot and, at the same time, lowered his blade in a straight line.

His speed was so swift, and it was also instantaneous for a large cut to appear on the sky and the ground.

And for the first time, the warrior ‘flinched.’

Kwaaaak!!

The sound couldn’t keep up with the strike as it came one step late, and a sharp mark from the slash formed on the armor.

Jamie bit his tongue.

‘I didn’t cut it.’

It was a technique that could cut through space, but it couldn’t pierce through its pure defense.

=Analysis done. The armor is made from materials that do not exist in this land. It is one that makes up to 90% of the armor, and according to the analysis, it holds the characteristic features of diffusion, activation, and acceleration.

“And regeneration?”

-Exactly correct.

That meant that the moment it was cut, the armor would begin to regenerate.

Jamie kicked the ground. As if Jamie’s attack had worked, the warrior was still as if he were recovering.

The power of the armor was shocking, but so was Trinity.

-Unlocking Trinity’s unique ability, ‘God Killer.’

The pure white Trinity sucked in a large amount of black mana and turned black in an instant.

The black mana created by Jamie was the nemesis of holy power.

The aura of holy light was converted to darkness once again.

As that was happening, he stabbed Balisada through the gap between the helmet and the armor.

But the warrior was back to normal.

“Small Explosion.”

An explosion occurred right in the center of Jamie’s chest.

-Activate Absolute Defense.

It was an explosion that could destroy everything immediately, but Trinity had complete physical immunity from All Might.

So the explosion didn’t touch him.

Jamie, who wasn’t touched, stabbed Balisada where he was.

Puak!

‘It went in properly.’

He felt the sensation at his fingertips, and it dug into his skin. It was fatal, no matter how strong the holy power was.

However, he couldn’t be relieved with just that.

[Extreme Formation]

It was another form of technique that Jamie improved.

[Dawning]

Extreme Formation was a slash that swept the sky and land. And Dawning was one that made a concentrated blow.

And Dawning was…

“The light that shines in the darkness.”

Light shone from his body as if he were tearing the space open.

With that, it would make things disappear.

As if the dark armor couldn’t withstand the force, cracks began to form on it. Jamie was confident of his win.

Wheik.

It was at that moment that flames broke out.

“No destructive force can kill me.”

All parts of the armor around the warrior were broken, and the flames covered Dawning as it began to grow in size.

Jamie only realized it then.

The explosion and its nature that the warrior had been using. Why was the armor so hard?

Why was he risking his life to fight?

Why did Jamie’s darkness not work?

“They say the birth of something starts from an explosion.”

Jamie stepped back, watching the flame rise to the sky, and then chuckled.

“Didn’t you say you couldn’t do attacks of destruction?”

A huge fire giant rose to the ground.

Jamie looked at that being with an expression that was unsure if he should smile or be sad, and said,

“Why did you end up like that, Yeomjae?”
