Chapter 507: Kim Hyunsung’s Awakening (2)

‘What has changed? Did he get a new class? How did you get awakened? Did you really awaken?’

It had to be checked thoroughly, but it seemed that his class had evolved to the mythic grade.

It wouldn’t be wrong to think that he broke the egg by himself and came out without the help of Benignore or Elune. Considering the light that continued to emanate from the sword held in his right hand, it seemed that some of his mythic-grade abilities had been released.

Who would have known that the sword given by the museum would be so helpful?

‘Awakening! Awakening! Awakening! Kim Hyunsung’s awakening!’

Kim Hyunsung’s face, as he looked at Donovan, looked as if he had finally let go of the heavy burden in his heart. It was the norm that the guy who fought in a relaxed state was stronger than the hero who fought with the burdened mind.

The protagonist, who had a conviction so firm it couldn’t be shaken, was seldom defeated.

When I monitored Kim Hyunsung, who quietly exhaled, I started to feel as if I was being magnetized by him.

Definitely…

‘I chose the right actor.’

He was good-looking and had the power to draw attention.

Of course, he wasn’t the only star on that stage. After all, a good movie could only be completed when a good villain appeared.

It was slightly different from the original plan, but I picked the right being to get beaten.

Donovan’s appearance as a typical villain was a masterpiece. Of course, it wasn’t acting for him, but I had to smile at ease in a situation where he fit tightly like a puzzle.

-How dare you? How?! A mere human! A mere human!

‘Wow, I was starting to wonder why that line didn’t come out.’

-How dare you! My arm!

‘This one is also good. If he hadn’t come up with a line like that, I would be really disappointed.’

-Sigh…

He jumped in and swung his fist widely.

As if the fight with Park Deokgu was a hoax, the fist packed with enough energy to sunder mountains was avoided too easily by the lovely returner.

The surroundings completely collapsed due to the wind pressure alone. Along with the booming sound of the shockwave, Kim Hyunsung was reading his opponent’s attacks calmly without blinking.

-…

‘It’s beautiful.’

He tried to approach her, but Kim Hyunsung kept his distance.

It was clear that if they fought head-on, his body wouldn’t be able to withstand it. He was wielding his arm like a mad and rabid dog, but it was impossible for the fist of the Four Demon Generals’ weakest link to eventually reach the main character.

The results had not yet come out, but it had already been a long time since I had sent my worries to the moon.

Kim Hyunsung could never lose in that fight. The sight of him wielding his sword while avoiding Donovan’s knuckles was quite an amazing scene to behold.

Watching skilled swordsmen and warriors fight always felt exhilarating, but his movements were too efficient and quick that it would’ve been hard to understand for the commoners’ eyes.

‘You’ve become too strong.’

Allowing Donovan to attack was dangerous, but Kim Hyunsung seemed to be trying to test his newly acquired strength. Naturally, Donovan, who was well aware of that fact, grew even more violent.

-How dare you deceive me?! Are you deceiving me!? How dare this mere dirty human! In front of Donovan, the commander of the 27th Corps!! I’ll tear you up and kill you. I’ll make sure to torment you before you die!!

-…

-The same goes for the other humans here. Insect humans! Insect humans!!! Die… Ahhhhhhhhh!!

-…

The moment he looked away, Hyunsung deeply cut off his legs.

I wanted to express my gratitude to Donovan, who remained faithful to his role all the way to the end. He was even pouring out all kinds of curses.

‘Goodbye, Donovan. Thank you.’

-This is a living sacrifice to my friend, cough!

-…

-Damn it, I… I-!

-…

-I… I can’t be beaten… by a mere human! I can’t be beaten. I can’t break my promise to my friend…

‘Gosh, Donovan.’

I almost teared up, witnessing this scene. What he chose instead of reverse summoning was to use all of his remaining power.

It wasn’t as much as Belial’s appearance in Laios, but the huge guy began to assume a new look. Even Ronove, who was watching the situation next to me, began to look at him as if he was pathetic.

-Stupid… It’s a shame to say that he’s a member of our kind.

It looked as if his limits had been broken.

Originally, when demons were summoned to this world, they came in with a certain penalty.

It would be safe to assume that the guy’s current appearance was enough to make the others deliver all the mythic grade power he’s got.

It made me a little sad because I felt his willingness to complete his mission even if it meant resisting the system, but the Four Demon Generals’ weakest link had always been fated to exit the fastest.

-My friend!

-He is not your friend.

-What?

-He is not your friend.

‘Yes, Hyunsung. Fuck… That’s it.’

-You don’t know anything about him to be saying that. You are nothing but a useless mortal! You don’t know anything!

-Motherfuckers!

And thus, the conversation ended with that. However, Kim Hyunsung’s face was clearly different.

-I’ll kill you all! Every single one of you!

Donovan began to gather enormous magical power that caught even me by surprise. It didn’t take long for a large fist to fall from the sky.

To put it in an exaggerated manner, it felt like a reproduction of a Laios nightmare. However, Kim Hyunsung moved slowly and without fear.

‘Will you use your special move? Will you?’

I could already tell by looking at the atmosphere. That would be the last attacks they would ever exchange with each other.

A fist the size of a house fell, and Kim Hyunsung’s sword radiated so much light that it was impossible to look at it directly. The brilliance reminded me of the red sunset that I saw before parting with him. It spread out in all directions and began to drive away all the surrounding darkness.

It was so beautiful that it was hard to describe properly.

‘Wow…’

I didn’t know if it was just my imagination, but as if he were inspired by what he had seen in his unconsciousness, it was irrevocably similar. After biting his lips tightly and concentrating all the magic power and strength within him, he wielded his sword of promised friendship. The scene was worthy of becoming a historical painting.

The huge light emanating from the sword illuminated the darkness and completely split apart Donovan’s body.

-Hah!

-Shiiiiiit!

What happened after Hyunsung completely broke through Donovan’s magic power didn’t need to be explained.

-I-I… to a… mere human…

-Sigh, sigh, sigh…

-I’m… sorry. My friend… I’m… sorry. Belial…

-Sigh, sigh…

It was Donovan’s shocking end, a symbol of the 27th Corps.

I started to think that I should retreat as fast as possible since I was in the same place as they were.

Act 1 was over, and Act 2 was about to begin. Since I had stepped in between those two acts, I needed to check the end of the final chapter.

“Let’s go, Ronove.”

-What? Right now?

“No. Shouldn’t I go there to show my face for a moment? I have to tell them what the next mission is.”

-What is the next mission?

“Well. It’s time for the continent to carry its last beacon of hope on its back, one by one… It would be good for them to step back and prepare for the final battle. It will also give them a break. They need time to take all of their inner thoughts out.”

-Ah…

“Since they have secured base 17, they will think that they’ll have another chance.”

They just needed to prepare for the final battle against the troops coming in. Of course, it had been tentatively confirmed that the next fight would be a lot worse than that last fight.

The cliché, which could soon be called the royal road in the current situation, would be a desperate battle that couldn’t end without the tears of the fallen Plaguelord of Darkness and his friend, the genius swordsman.

However, that would only happen if I could deal with Kim Hyunsung.

I was expecting a little bit, but I started to lose more confidence due to what I recently saw.

I thought he would’ve awakened, but he became more monstrous than I thought. He wasn’t a genius for no reason. He was strong enough to split the demon commander in half.

‘Should I bulk up my body…?’

“…”

‘Should I do some push-ups?’

My specs were too low to even be considered a good match against him. I could try to come up with another method, but I thought it would be beautiful to confront each other even if that meant having to use the help of Belial, the ruler of all evils.

Swinging swords at each other whilst shouting lines like ‘Come back! Kiyoung! You have to come to your senses!’ was something I wanted to hear from a fallen standpoint.

‘There must be some other way.’

The first thing I had to do was show my face from a distance.

Ronove felt a little nervous about finally showing herself after a long time, but for the moment, I patted her shoulder and began to show myself from far away.

Of course, Doom Kiyoung continued to wear his mask from the old days.

As I slowly raised my hand toward the battlefield whose combatants were still fighting, I noticed the demons exiting the base like an ebb tide.

Ronove, too, with an alluring smile as if she was nervous, stuck to me. Everyone probably felt relieved.

The battle was over. The battle had ended with the first victory of humanity.

However, I was certain that there weren’t that many humans who could cheer at what they were witnessing at that moment.

The demon they faced was only the weakest among the Four Guardian Kings. The dirty humans still had to deal with Doom Kiyoung, who Belial chose.

‘Yes, guys. That’s how you become stronger. Pain is a blessing to the youth.’

I was pretty far away. However, I could see the gazes that had begun focusing on me.

I wasn’t interested, but I pretended to be, and I pretended to be curious about how the humans could overcome Donovan.

When I looked at Kim Hyunsung with the final boss’s look as if the other guy had just let his guard down, I noticed that he was also looking straight into my eyes.

As if he had pledged something, his fists were clenched, and his hands were put on his chest. He was showing his determination to rescue me at all costs.

It was an expression of his willingness to save me, even if it meant giving up his own life.

He even opened his mouth slightly, as if it wasn’t enough to tap on his chest once again, which he did in his unconscious. Before long, he began to recite the words I had conveyed to him in his unconscious mind.

He probably thought I might not hear him since we were far away, but he spoke anyway.

“I believe.”

‘Ah, time to act like I have a headache.’

I pulled on my hair as if my mind was being torn for a moment. I then returned to my original form shortly afterward.

For a moment, I could see Kim Hyunsung’s face, seemingly expecting something to happen.

I fluttered my silver hair in response to that reaction, sending only a fishy smile as if I was having fun.

‘That was so cool.’

“He was the weakest among the Four Guardian Kings, but who would have thought that a human would get rid of Donovan.”

-…

“Let’s go back, Ronove. It looks like something interesting has happened.”

-Yes, Lee Kiyoung.

‘I’ve been immersed until the end.’

We were getting close to the perfect finish.
