Omniscient Reader's Perspective

Chapter 365: Episode 69 - Hunting Angels (1)

[no fun without someone fighting back]

While smoking a cigarette, Michael stared at the bodies scattered on the ground.

Gray-white smoke emerged from the air like mushrooms.This cigarette is made by second generation artisans.

The reason Michael likes to hunt demons or go on business trips is because he can smoke his favorite cigarettes as much as he likes.

In Eden, smoking was a sin.

Michael smoked several cigarettes in a row, and when he was caught in a train of thought, he wiped the end of the cigarette on the exposed body and extinguished it.

"Did I take too long?"

[What does "too long" mean? This is just the beginning]

Hearing that voice echoing in his mind, Michael frowned deeply.

"To shut up."

"Hurry up, wake me up, and unshackle me quickly"

Michael smoked a new cigarette.

He had heard the voice of this particular story for a long time.Whenever he smoked, Michael had to finish more cigarettes, one after another.

now is not the time

Michael took another long puff of his rising cigarette.

[Nebula Eden releases new revelations]

[Hunting Archangels, huh? Sounds like fun for sure. ]

-Asmodeus listened to my proposal and smiled happily, revealing two rows of pearly white teeth.

[This is no ordinary archangel, but a 'fallen savior' are you serious?]

"of course."

[However, isn't your relationship with Eden very friendly?Wouldn't you be their enemy if you did something like this?]

"It's okay. I'm the demon king after all."

.Even if I didn't mean it that way, I still have to say it out loud.

Because I'm trying to convince the Asmodeus here.At this moment, the Demon King himself seems to be troubled by my suggestion.

"Definitely think about it. You need the syllable [Gul], right? And besides that, you can get a story about an archangel. "The man who hunted the archangel." Doesn't that kind of thing excite you ?"

,' Unfortunately, not so easily shaken.No, it wasn't so much that it was more of a demonstrative look at me, as if to figure out what my real intentions were.

I decided to cast a bigger bait at this critical moment.

"Oh, that's disappointing. As a member of the 'Gourmet Society,' I thought you'd be different from other zodiac signs."

Asmodeus heard my words, his slender eyebrows trembled visibly.

[Your understanding of Demon King 'Asmodeus' has increased a lot][Your understanding of applicable individuals is quite high. ]

The second phase of "Omniscient Reader's Perspective" has started

'This is the first time I've heard such news.

Finally, the Omniscient Reader's Perspective skill level has been raised enough to allow me to peek inside selected constellations.Right after that, I could hear Asmodeus' inner thoughts.

"This 'Savior of the World' is extremely arrogant"

Its interior is like a viscous swamp.

Listening to someone looking back at my private thoughts with quietly withdrawn eyes made me rather uncomfortable.

Its thoughts continue.

"I really want to fall into such a trap, don't I"

As expected, Asmodeus climbed the ranks as a candidate for the future Great Demon Lord, and not for nothing.

It has found my proposal to be a trap.

"It is very likely that the target of the "Demon Lord of Salvation" is the "Fallen Savior""

"He wants to use me and other constellations to hunt down Michael and steal the modifier necklace"

"To his credit, he uses his brain so much, but pretending to believe in his plan is kind of irritating, isn't it?"

Asmodeus' expression gradually turned cold, as expected, so much persuasion seemed not enough.

"Michael is a tough Angel to play against, even if he's limited by the possibility of a second generation"

Asmodeus' contradictory thoughts are gradually finding their way.A hint of murderous intent seemed to seep from its long nails.

I could feel Anna Croft next to me tensing up and getting into a fight.Perhaps, she used her precognition and saw what was about to happen.

However, I'm not worried at all.Because, it's time to start a situation that even her [precognition] cannot predict.

Asmodeus' expression became rather strange like a clockwork.

"Um?"

The demon's brief hardened expression turned into one filled with complex emotions.Its eyes danced around as if reading something in the air.

So how long has it been like this?Countless emotions flitted and flitted in Asmodeus' eyes, and finally returned to me.

"You know, sometimes it's hard to figure out what Xingliu wants"

"what do you mean?"

[I'm just talking to myself.very good.I accept your offer.So, let's try this Archangel Hunt thing. ]

Asmodeus' statement stunned Anna Croft, and then she looked puzzled.

The demon king completely ignored her presence, pursing his lips, concentrating on sending a message to someone, somewhere.

At this moment, it may be busy communicating with other "doom explorers".

At the same time, a message from someone entered my head.

“(Am I doing well?)”

You did it, thank you, Shang Ya

- The reason why Asmodeus changed his mind?It may have just read some sort of revelation.Rather, it was Yoo Sang Ah and I who faked the "Revelation" and spread it around, that's all.

It read: "The Corrupted Archangel shall die by the sword of the Sword Master on the Isle of the Forgotten Old Man"

"Another new discovery?"

.The newly discovered news also turned the investigation bureau upside down.The first department to be affected is the sales department.

"Sir, there is a sudden spike in sales of our swordsman skills!"

"Replenish their inventory immediately! Call the relevant subcontractors and tell them to expedite the production of mass production star traces!"

"But even so, we're running out of stock, sir!"

"Damn. Where did all the makers of the story go?! Huh? Who? Yes, if we ask the 'mass-production makers' to do it, then..."

At the same time, Biheng was quietly watching the development of the situation in this chaotic furnace.

The great goblin Balam calls him from the side.

[You should start a new program. ]

"I have done so, sir."

Just then, a new piece of information surfaced on the scene observation screen, flickering into life.

[Subscene, 'The Archangel Hunt' has begun!]

-Soon, the constellations hidden in the forest and the plains rushing somewhere appear on the screen.Just now they all bought sword master related stories from [ghost pack].

"Is it okay to open such a situation, sir? Eden will definitely object strongly."

We've got the scribe's consent.He said it didn't matter.We've compensated them, so there's no need to hold back. ] "Come to think of it, he'd make one of his angels the star of a scene. That doesn't sound like the kind of thing an absolutely good leader would do."

[This is how Absolute Kindness works.For the sake of great good, they trample on small good from time to time. ]

"I know, sir. But lately, I've been having trouble understanding them."

[about?]

"What the hell are Eden and Demon World thinking? They agree to continue the plot of "Holy Demon War", and. If they do, don't they both die?"

Balam stared at it with unreadable eyes, and then gave a smug smile.

[There is a saying that life is short, but 'art' lasts forever. ]

"It's a proverb on Earth, isn't it, sir?"

[correct.These words celebrate the timeless nature of the story.However, you should be aware of this - such notions are false.Even the greatest stories die sooner or later.It's just that human life is too short compared to the life of stories, that's all. ]

Balam's voice seemed to contain the regret of countless hours.

In fact, these words belong to a ghost who has been telling the story of the constellations for a long time.

[Did you know? A long, long time ago, there was no good or evil story in Star Stream. ]

"Yes, I know."

(But, now?)

The screams of the constellations killed by Michael's sword can be heard from the screen.

There are other constellations silently watching the battle.

These zodiac signs sponsor others, are too busy swearing at others, or engrossed in enjoying the show.Coins were exchanged, and cries of joy and despair rang out incessantly.

In this scene, no one seems to care about good and evil.

"what"

As he gasped, Biheng finally understood the wisdom of the great goblin.Balam spoke again to his subordinates.

It's a war to keep them from disappearing

For the next two days Anna Croft and I got ready for the hunt, but Asmodeus did not join us.

Let's meet again at the hunting ground at noon in two days

.It leaves those words behind, disappearing before our eyes.I'm pretty sure the demon lord is going to hunt an angel in his own way.

There are about 30 minutes until noon.The ideal place for us to hunt the Archangel is the fertile forest in the northern part of the island.

Just before we reached our destination, Anna Croft asked me a question. "Do you really think we can make it?"

"You'll help me, won't you?"

"Even I, I can't always predict (the future). You know that better than anyone."

"It's okay to take a momentary look at the immediate future."

What I need to avoid are those unseen variables that might happen in the near future.

And Anna Croft's [Precognition] is the most appropriate skill to avoid such things.

"If I decide to betray you, what will you do? If my target is you, then"

"I know that's not the case."

From the start, I couldn't have been her target.Why? Because she was put into the scene before me.

She narrowed her eyes and asked me again. "By the way, when did you stop calling me polite terms?"

"Oh, now that I think about it, you were right. Madame, should I address you in polite language again?"

"You're an asshole right now, so please, don't do it again."

"Ah, by the way, little girl, how many times can you use [Precognition] today?"

Anna Croft stared at me dumbfounded, then replied, "Three times."

"Don't use them unnecessarily, activate them only after I give you the signal."

"Why should I listen"

"You should listen to me so we can finish this poor script forever."

, and from afar, we can hear the screams of constellations and avatars.The hunt has begun.Accompanied by a terrible explosion, the subdued voice of the indifferent and proud archangel shook the entire forest.

[How dare you treat me as the protagonist of the plot??]

Anna Croft and I hid in the nearby bushes to observe the battlefield.

We can't find Asmodeus anywhere.However, almost all of the participants who remained in Nakajima 3 gathered in the Fertile Forest instead of him.

-Most of them happen to be "evil" or "neutral" type of signs.

There are many "historical person" level constellations, and I even saw a lower level demon king.

This is the 'Worthless Darkness' demon from the 68th World Demon World.He must have come here at the behest of Asmodeus.Not only him, but other constellations are holding a second-generation long sword at the moment.

[Attack him!!]

Michael watched the constellation rush towards him, the demon leading, furious.

(How dare an insignificant low-level demon king! You must all be crazy!)

The Archangel uses the surprisingly strong wind pressure to blow the demon away, and activates his state to create a wind barrier.

However, some managed to get over the barrier and still fired at him.

[Constellation, 'Diligent Specialist', has activated the skill, 'Mass-produced physical sword aura'!]

The exact same skill is simultaneously activated from the longsword held by the participant.

Wave after wave of yellow, even blue halos of swords swept past Michael's identity, advancing forward.

The archangel smiled mockingly.

[Ether Blades? What a bunch of crazy fools. ]

The news I revealed to the world through Yoo Sang Ah is false.Without a doubt, no 'Master Swordsman' could have killed Michael.However, just because it's a 'false' revelation, doesn't mean it's total rubbish and has no chance of coming true.

[The probability of the second generation gives the applicable skill a powerful buff!]

[Physical Sword Halo] is currently ridiculed as a super knight's exclusive skill.For a while, however, the second generation saw it as the greatest skill of all time.

(It worked! Keep hacking him!!)

-hey-hey!

- Due to the baptism of continuous sword light, Michael's wind barrier began to fade away.He panicked, trying to activate a new story, but then, a black ether light suddenly cut through the air.

As if by magic, the spaces are divided as if the whole space were divided.Only the long paw prints left by the Demon King are clearly visible in the cracks of the broken barrier.

[I've always wondered if an archangel without wings could fly. ]

Michael's torn wings struggled to move in the air.Through the fallen feathers, Asmodeus' smiling face revealed himself to the world.

(Today I finally got the answer. The existence of wings has nothing to do with the archangel's ability to fly.)

Controlled by his rage, Michael poured out his magical energy on the demon.Unfortunately, due to damage to the avatar's body, his balance was affected and he couldn't aim properly.Instead, he started wasting his energy.

Asmodeus, on the other hand, used other constellations to continually inflict further damage on Michael.

As Asmodeus expected, I couldn't help but marvel at the fight.

"We should go. If this continues, the devil may take away our mythical story."

"No, not yet, ma'am."

My relaxed voice brought panic into Anna Croft's face.As long as she doesn't run out of precognitions today, she'll never guess what's about to happen.

[The story "The Evil That Destroys Evil" has begun to tell the story]

-A dark halo suddenly began to gather around Michael's body, enveloping him like a flower bud.It's hard to believe that this fallen energy actually belongs to an archangel.

"Justice chooses the path of evil in order to destroy other evils"

Realizing that something ominous was about to happen, Constellation continued their onslaught, but too bad they didn't catch that black bud even once.

Instead, it appears to absorb nutrients by absorbing the forces of its surroundings, and slowly begins to reproduce itself.

[Michael has been corrupted!]

As I witnessed this overwhelming sight, I recalled in my mind a certain part of the Law of Inactivation.

"Not every constellation in the world is divided into "constellation" and "demon king".There is only one creature in the world, it can use the abilities of the constellation and the devil at the same time

In the long history of the Garden of Eden, the only one who ate the [star fruit]

"No demon shall survive after witnessing the true face of the demon"

"Oh my God," Anna whispered.

- Something is waking up from the pitch black darkness.

First, a pair of black wings.Then, the horns symbolize a demon.

Demon King, "King of Fallen Angels" is scanning the battlefield

This so-called king of fallen angels is a modifier for Michael after he transformed into the king of demons.

-my God!

- With a wave of its hand, all evil-oriented constellations are swept away.Even though they now appear to be on the same side of evil, their class differences are simply in another area.

This is the true power of Michael, a mythical archangel.

Even Asmodeus has now developed a hard-line expression.

[this is not in Revelation]

Before long, Michael's status plummeted, and several demon kings were helplessly abandoned.The body of Asmodeus' avatar must have taken a lot of damage, as it too began to crumble.

Just then, I got up from my seat.

"it's time."

"Do you want to join the fight now?!"

"Yes."

"Didn't you see what happened just now? Even if your target was that archangel, this is"

"What makes you think I'm targeting an 'archangel'?"

Anna Croft blinked in amazement at my question.Her [Eye of the Great Demon] began to burn red.

"Could it be?"

We can see Asmodeus's body being thrown into the distance like a puppet, the rope being cut.

- From the very beginning, I had no intention of fighting the fallen archangel.Plus, he's not the only one with a mythic story.

Your target modifier is "Devil of Lust and Wrath"

I drew my sword and the message popped up in the air, speaking to her.

"Okay, let's go find a mythical story, shall we?"
