What's That? (1)

[Switches to the god of ]

Pure white.

That white light coiled around Lee Geon’s body.

And that light was none other than the power of .

At the same time, Lee Geon’s hair, which had been black, transformed into the same color as if dyed by the power of .

Ku-gu-gung!

It was an overwhelming power.

Enough to erase even a god from existence as if they had never been.

Because of that, Raphael, the seraph of , who was watching, felt a chill run down his spine.

‘Is that the very divinity that wiped out Olympus…!’

All the gods had been shocked by the annihilation of Olympus, but at the same time, it was true that they had mocked it.

Saying it was just like those merchants, or wondering how they could have neglected combat and lived so complacently as to suffer such a fate at the hands of a mere newcomer.

But upon seeing that power, anyone would have said this.

‘Flee immediately! If you want to live!’

That was no longer at the level of a newcomer god.

‘Great Sage God.’

Moreover, wasn’t it a divinity already capable of forming an army alone!

‘He’s been devouring all sorts of achievements in the divine realm.’

But Raphael was not bothered.

‘It’s within the expected range.’

He had known through Olympus the information that Lee Geon had acquired the power of . And if that was not a fake, but the real . There wouldn’t be many gods who could oppose him.

‘That is a primordial power.’

The primordial powers were the powers of the Primordial Gods, the five strands of power classified as the highest divinities even in the divine realm.

Originally, there were five great factions centered around those five divinities, but after the Evil Gods diverted those powers to the Kruder, they became unfindable in the divine realm.

Well, the majority were retrieved by the Great Sage Gods from the Monarchs and came to be used by the Great Sage Gods, but as for …

‘The power they failed to retrieve along with the last remaining one.’

Thus countless gods tried to revive the divinity of , but none succeeded.

‘Even the Great Sage Gods failed.’

Because it was a power that was as strong as it was tricky and difficult to handle.

Yet here was a guy who had revived such a thing. And not just revived it?

[I don’t recognize your face. You little bastard, are you a chicken-fucker too?]

“……!!”

As if merely reviving its form, he was wielding it like his own power!

‘Crazy bastard…!’

But even this power had a weakness.

And although they were outnumbered 3 to 1 just by headcount, Raphael instead thought that right now was the opportunity.

“Gabriel! Fulfill your duty as a Seraphim!”

“!”

The one he looked at was none other than Kevin.

“You can stop !”

He wondered what nonsense that was, but Raphael was sincere.

‘That guy is our comrade.’

Like them, he was undoubtedly Gabriel, one of the five seraphim presiding over the divinity of .

Even if he hadn’t been able to find his divinity after being devoured by that vermin-like Monarch.

‘Rumor has it that shrewd Monarch sold him off to the Samsara Hell of Mahabharata.’

They had searched like mad afterward but ultimately couldn’t find him.

‘But to think he was reincarnated as a human.’

Raphael glared at Hugo.

Well, perhaps because he had been reincarnated as a human until now. They hadn’t been able to locate that guy either, but now it was different.

‘Isn’t he radiating divinity?’

Perhaps his power had awakened while clashing with the forces of Eden.

Anyway, the circumstances didn’t matter.

‘If that guy is here, we can stop both and that Monarch.’

It was possible with Gabriel’s unique authority.

So Raphael, who had been using a recovery skill, unleashed even greater power and called out to Kevin.

“Gabriel! Do not forget your duty!”

“!’

Raphael imbued his voice with divine authority.

And if the voice of Eden simply entered his ears. It would surely resonate with Gabriel’s soul and restore the memories of his spirit!

“Gabriel!”

Sure enough. Kevin frowned and stopped at the voice filled with power. Raphael smiled at the sight.

‘It worked.’

Raphael once again put power into his voice and shouted.

“Compatriot! Protect Eden from the serpent, and execute that filthy Monarch beside him as wel…!”

It was right at that moment.

“Kuheok!!!”

Sharp ice shot up, piercing Raphael’s chest.

Simultaneously, the one who had flung the ice frowned as if the noise hurt his ears.

“That retarded bastard. What’s he been yapping on about since earlier?”

“……!!”

It was Kevin.

Hugo too looked at Kevin with an expression of disbelief.

“You, were you acquainted with these guys?”

“What makes you think I’d know such birds?”

“Well, true.”

At the sight of the two perfectly in sync, Raphael, who had spent thousands of years with them, felt his blood boil upwards.

“Gabriel! How can you fail to recognize the Monarch who devoured you and get along with him so well!!”

At those words, Hugo flinched, but Kevin chuckled as if dumbfounded.

“Now chicken bastards are even demeaning humans?”

Soon, when Kevin drew his sword and threatened him, Raphael immediately put distance between them.

‘Damn it, is he unable to easily remember because he reincarnated as a human!’

Indeed, if he could easily remember about them, he would have come looking for them long ago!

He gathered power throughout his entire body as if he had no choice.

‘If voice doesn’t work, then by contact.’

It was quite rough, but he intended to directly shock his brain and bring the memories up.

Sure enough, Raphael’s power began to fill from his head to his toes, even every single feather of his wings.

‘First, I just need my body to touch him.’

If they made even the slightest contact, his memories would return.

Then that guy wouldn’t do such an insane thing as foolishly hanging around in a place like this with the Monarch who devoured him and the serpent god threatening Eden!

But it was right at that moment.

“!”

Raphael was startled by Lee Geon appearing right before his eyes.

Even though he was on guard.

Just as Raphael, who hadn’t even sensed the approach, was about to quickly counterattack.

Bang!!!

Kicked by Lee Geon, Raphael flew far away.

At the same time, the building of the Divine Palace Seat was destroyed.

And Raphael, now bloody, groaned and glared at Lee Geon approaching him.

‘Even though I defended…!’

The part of his arm that Lee Geon hit was torn off and gone.

Of course, his body wasn’t in a normal state to begin with because of the Monarch.

‘Damn it…!’

But had Lee Geon been curious about what Raphael was saying? Lee Geon, who had been listening to his words for a moment without immediately attacking, laughed.

“You little shit, you trashed the entire first floor of my house to get yourself killed?”

“……!”

No, the one who destroyed this place was you yourself for kicking and blowing him away!!

“Whatever. So, who ate who?”

“……!”

Along with that killing intent, Raphael’s body was ripped apart.

It was the power of . And caught up in the power of , Raphael’s form began to change.

Of course, he had reversed them into humans during the Olympus incident, but now it was different.

“…Heok!!”

Raphael’s body began to melt and distort its shape.

To be precise, he was destroying his own body.

And Raphael, in agony, immediately noticed the true nature of that power.

‘This is …!’

Raphael.

The power contained in his divinity was none other than . But Lee Geon hadn’t reversed him into a human like during Olympus; he had reversed the ability itself.

In other words, into a power opposite to healing!

Of course, since the power of Circulation had only turned half a cycle, if it turned one more time it would return to healing…!

‘This bastard…!!’

Ultimately changed from to , Raphael screamed. The problem was that he had placed automatic healing skills on his body due to the wounds inflicted by the Monarchs.

“Heo-eok!!”

Raphael hurriedly tried to stop the healing skill, but it was useless.

“Aaak!!!”

The reversed power was now a new power, no longer his own. There was no way he could suddenly control it.

“Heo-eok…!”

His skin and legs torn and melted by that power, Raphael writhed in agony.

‘Damn it. I must inform Michael of this fact immediately.’

Finally, his eyes gleamed. He swiftly and secretly summoned a subordinate.

Then, a presence only angels could feel was sensed within the shadows.

[You called.]

‘Hurry and convey everything that happened here.’

[Understo….]

But that was when.

“Kyaaak!!!”

Lee Geon roughly stomped on Raphael’s shadow.

Simultaneously, as the power of activated on the shadow, the hidden angel was forcibly ejected.

“Heo-eok!!”

He had reversed to force him to reveal himself.

And Lee Geon, grabbing the angel’s neck as if twisting a chicken’s neck, said.

“Why are these pigeon-spawn bastards all so damn gloomy.”

“……!”

With those words, the light of Circulation pierced through the angel’s head.

Bang!!

Struck directly by the power of Circular Flow, the angel collapsed foaming at the mouth.

He had made him insane, ruining his sound mental state, and then knocked him down.

“Got nothing better to do than mess with my house and my people?”

“…Your… house.”

Meeting Lee Geon’s red eyes, Raphael instinctively sensed his own death.

At the same time, he realized something else.

“Serpent god. It would be best not to harbor too much affection for Earth. A colony should only be thought of as a colony. You cannot live here in any case….”

Right at that moment, the head of the sneering Raphael was destroyed and vanished.

Pang!!

Along with that, his physical body that had constituted his form scattered in all directions.

Lee Geon’s power of also subsided.

[Experience gained]

[Obtained data of a Seraphim (5-Star)]

[A new Divine Virtue (Achievement) is engraved (5-Star)]

[Switching back from the god of and to the god of ]

His hair color and the oppressive power returned to normal, and Lee Geon trampled on the divinity of Raphael, who had been altered to a divinity of .

“You touched something you should never have touched.”

At that sight, Hugo seemed inwardly moved.

“Geon-ah….”

Still, as a friend, he appeared to be worrying about his wife again.

“I lived thanks to you. Thank y….”

“You little shit! Do you know how hard I worked to build a kids’ play area here! All that suffering in the divine realm! Huh? I was staying up all night making toys with the materials I barely scraped together!! And you wrecked it!?”

“…….”

Hugo looked dumbfounded.

And just as Kevin too looked dumbfounded and was about to approach.

The feathers of Raphael that had scattered into the sky fell everywhere. And the moment one of the falling feathers touched Kevin’s cheek.

Clang!

“…Keok!”

Suddenly, Kevin staggered as if struck by something. Hugo looked at him with puzzlement.

“Kevin? What’s wrong with you?”

Hugo watched with worry, but Kevin covered his mouth as if he was about to vomit.

He began to recall memories he didn’t know at all.

-Fulfill your duty as a Seraphim.

-No! Come back! You’ll be devoured by that monster!

Memories from when he belonged to Eden, memories of being close to Raphael whom Lee Geon had just killed. And even memories of being devoured by a cunning Monarch.

“Kevin?”

And that was when.

“……!”

Lee Geon watched the ground where he stood split apart, and the plants wither.

That wasn’t all.

The plants began to transform into bizarre monster-like forms.

It was because of none other than his own power.

At the same time, Lee Geon furrowed his brows and recalled the rules of the Sage Gods.

-Sage Gods cannot reside in colonies (Lower Dominions), only in the divine realm.

The land and life forms couldn’t withstand the strong power of a Sage God.

The stronger the god, all the more.

Until now, he hadn’t exerted influence because he sealed his power except when fighting, but well.

‘Can even sealed power not be withstood anymore?’

Lee Geon realized intuitively.

That if he remained on Earth, this place might perish due to those transmuted substances.

Well, to resolve this, he would either have to become someone’s vassal god or amend .

The real rulebook of the Valhalla guys that he won and took in a bet.

Well, that wasn’t what was important right now anyway.

“Geon-ah?”

Lee Geon looked at Hugo as if displeased.

“So that’s it, you stupid idiot.”

“What? What is?”

“…….”

Instead of answering, Lee Geon kicked Hugo.

Kicked out of the blue, Hugo flared up.

“Why now again!!!”

“Nah. I just had a reality check.”

“What?!”

To think he had been raising some damn monster cub.

No, before that, that thing is the head of the Monarchs? 1st generation? Well, I don’t know what that is, but what?

‘Monarch King?’

Lee Geon, who had been glaring as if having a reality check, kicked Hugo again.

“Ah, seriously, why!!!”

“I was raising quite the tiger cub.”

“Ah, really, why! More than that, in front of my Jiwoo….”

But that was when.

Jiwoo grabbed Hugo and Lee Geon’s arms tightly.

Caught off guard by that strong grip, the two were flustered.

“Ms. Jiwoo?”

“Ah, no, Jiwoo-ya. This is….”

“Ah. I won’t fight.”

However, Cheon Jiwoo, who had been a hostage to Raphael, was in great distress.

“Jiwoo-ya, what’s wrong! Does it hurt anywhere?”

“Did you get hurt anywhere by that chicken bastard?”

Cheon Jiwoo grit her teeth and held onto the two.

“I…it’s coming out.”

“What?”

“Huh??”

“T-the… baby.”

What?!!
