Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 646
646. Han Cheon-seong vs. Azazel Shineleaf – The power beyond reality (7)
***
Wow!
The moment Cheonseong takes a step, a huge chain immediately shakes as if wrapping around Azazel. The sight of a huge chain swinging wildly gave the viewer a feeling of intimidation and coercion.
But to Cheonseong, that wasn’t that important.
‘see.’
I saw it all.
The movement of the chain shaking and trying to take over all of the space in an instant seemed infinitely slow to me. It felt strange even to me.
It felt as if the world had stopped.
There was no way it could stop, but as if my thoughts were following it all, I could see a gap in the giant chain shaking.
It was a gap that would not have existed originally. And even if such a gap existed, it was so small that I could not see through it, but I was now seeing it clearly.
ㅡㅡㅡ!
As soon as I opened the window, I saw a completely different space.
It was ‘transition’.
In the split second as the spear crossed the atmosphere, my body naturally jumped through space on the spear. It was ‘unrealistic’ that could not be explained by any logic.
But they were very similar.
Just as Eustea was able to strike a spear without any warning, even though I could not reach that level.
No matter how hard I strained my body, I couldn’t reach that level of logic in just a few days.
The art that goes beyond reality and reaches the pinnacle of unreality is so high.
‘But only once.’
If it were just one time with all my strength, I could reach it even now.
That could be said to be the true face of the power I wanted to capture in my fourth ceremony.
“… … !”
Through the gap of time that could be said to be a moment, I saw Azazel with his eyes raised.
I saw Azazel holding the blade of my spear with both hands, aimed at her shoulder, within a breath-taking distance.
Clearly the huge chain wrapped around her couldn’t stop me. There wouldn’t even have been a moment for the chain to react to my movements. It felt natural.
‘I definitely reached it.’
And I saw it with my eyes.
A spear pierced through the shoulder. Even better, my window was clearly in contact with reality.
A reality that my window could not originally reach. If I showed Azazel’s sincerity, there would be no reality that I could reach, but I have now surpassed that reality.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!
A dazed smile escaped me as I looked at Azazel’s hands, which were holding my spear and glowing intensely.
Sreuk… … .
The strength suddenly drained from the hand holding the spear.
As I watched Azazel’s body slowly becoming stained with red blood through the spear that pierced his shoulder, I felt the end.
“… !”
Suddenly, my breath was completely blocked and not even a sound came out.
It felt like my whole body was letting out a terrible scream. It wasn’t because Azazel did something to me. My body cannot withstand the enormous power contained in the fourth meal. An inexplicable burden had belatedly hit my body.
And ironically, I realized:
‘Eostea was dealing with absurd powers.’
Even though he displayed this level of power repeatedly against the original apostle, he faced him for close to eternity. My mind was blank as I realized once again the extent of his power.
I couldn’t tell if it was because of pain or mental shock. Even though I only put that force into my spear once, my body couldn’t withstand it.
One thing was clear.
This is a type of power that should not be used.
My body slowly began to tilt in pain as if time had completely stopped.
Tuk.
***
Tuk.
Azazel looked blankly at Han Tiansheng, who had collapsed in his arms, and was unable to say anything for a moment.
‘what… … ?’
I couldn’t describe what I was feeling through my dazed mind.
Everything was unrealistic.
A vivid pain felt from the shoulder. When I felt the spear piercing my shoulder, it was after the ‘bizarre reality’ had unfolded.
So even I was late in reacting.
He clearly thought that Han Tiansheng would come and tried to stop him. But it didn’t go as I expected.
It was as if I couldn’t catch up with Han Tiansheng.
I felt like I could only see it that way. Han Tiansheng momentarily surpassed me, so I couldn’t keep up.
Beyond space, an unrealistic future was depicted.
The future with a spear stuck in my shoulder appeared as a reality, as if even the process by which the spear came crashing down on me had completely disappeared.
‘How can this happen?’
I can’t understand it from beginning to end.
For a moment, I doubted whether this moment was real.
“… … .”
As I lowered my head in a daze in excruciating pain, I saw Han Cheon-seong, who had plunged the spear into my shoulder and lost consciousness.
Even though he gained new strength by reaching level 7, his body, which had not fully recovered, was still in a miserable state, and his face was distorted in pain even though he was unconscious.
‘Limit.’
With a body that was at its limit, Han Cheon-seong showed me an incomprehensible attack and succeeded as if he was proud of it.
“I could have died… … .”
I understood as I blurted out the words.
Just a moment ago, I was able to approach death in the true sense of the word.
Even the fact that the unknown sensation of death, completely different from the experience I had with the third type, Surachilyeon, had come before my eyes… … .
But Han Tiansheng didn’t do that.
He intentionally aimed the spear at my shoulder. So, this reality unfolded for me.
How should I accept this reality, where extremely unrealistic events unfolded one after another, but I didn’t even have time to worry about it.
Good!
“Well, the winner of the match is Central Academy’s Azazel Shineleaf!”
Then, I turned my head blankly when I heard the host’s voice coming down from the stage.
I put a spear in my shoulder, left Han Tiansheng unconscious in my arms, and looked at the host who declared my victory… … .
A laugh escaped me.
“… … no. “I lost.”
So I ended up speaking in a daze.
“yes?”
Looking at the host who was blankly asking questions, he continued speaking without hesitation.
“I lost this game. “I can’t accept victory because I didn’t win because I could.”
As I continued to say what I felt, only empty laughter escaped me as if I had lost my mind.
Sreuk.
As I supported Han Cheon-seong in my arms with one hand, I saw several chains located in the distance not far away.
‘You really couldn’t react at all.’
A huge chain that originally meant absolute defense. Even though it is a power meant to block and exclude everything that approaches me, these chains did not block Han Tiansheng in the slightest.
That was this reality.
“Azazel, are you really saying you are going to admit defeat?”
Seeing the host asking again in surprise, he let out a small breath and slowly placed his hand on the spear on his shoulder.
Sigh!
“yes.”
Even though I winced at the terrible pain of pulling out the spear and tearing my raw flesh, I calmly accepted defeat.
I couldn’t accept a victory like this.
A complete defeat. In fact, I was able to accept it with ease, and I didn’t even have the slightest regret left.
“… … “The winner of the match is Han Cheon-seong of Central Academy!!”
A small sigh escaped me as I watched the host declare victory as if correcting my words.
‘Still, I think I understand a little bit.’
I thought that the interest I had in Han Tian-seong had disappeared after watching the 3rd Sura Chi-yeon, but that was just unfounded.
“… … .”
Even as I gazed at Han Tiansheng, who had lost consciousness in a daze, I was certain of one thing.
‘Eostea must have seen this.’
Eustea resisted with burning will despite being imprisoned for such a long time. In the end, he was the person he chose.
After having no one in his sights for centuries, he chose Han Tiansheng and chose complete death.
Foot.
I burst out laughing again, and now I finally understood.
The power that Han Tiansheng showed just a moment ago would be a power that exists at a higher level that even Han Tiansheng, who has reached level 7, cannot withstand.
From noble mtl dot come
‘Form 4 Surabicheon.’
I thought about that name.
Normally one cannot reach such great power. No, there should not have been any reality that could be reached.
However, Han Cheon-seong was ‘obviously’ in contact.
I had reached a power that I could never have reached.
“Han Tiansheng… … !!”
Then, when someone approached me with a voice shouting urgently, I stopped thinking and just stared.
It wasn’t just one person.
Several people were urgently approaching my direction.
As I watched it, I naturally relaxed my grip.
Tuk.
As soon as Han Tiansheng escaped my arms, he also threw away the spear he had pulled out.
‘It’s really awful.’
Is this what the life of a human being who has experienced pain is like?
As I felt my vision blurring due to the excruciating pain I felt from my shoulder, I also had trouble maintaining my consciousness.
Still, I thought it was just one of many things.
‘If it were my own strength, would I have been able to be sure that this result would have been different?’
Now that I am suppressing my power as an apostle, if I had completely opened up my true power, would I have been able to fully respond to Han Tiansheng’s movements a moment ago?
Even though I thought about it that way, I wasn’t really sure.
Something had a different ‘texture’.
Slurp.
Even as I fell down in a daze, I wondered if anything was okay.
That’s just a meaningless assumption… … .
