Monster Heavenly King - Chapter 82
Only Noblemtl
82. God’s Tears (7)
Since that day, countless posts about this relic city have been posted in the Awakened community.

[Content: Phoenix Guild did some shit, right? They wasted a lot of manpower and time and got nothing out of it, right?]
-These kids must have wasted a few weeks here lol. Ah, it was worth it lol.
-After all, it’s so much fun to ruin something that someone else has worked hard for.
-Wow, you’re an early Awakener?
-It’s incredibly rare to find an early Awakener who isn’t part of a guild.
-I don’t feel so bad about it since it’s just retribution for the karma I’ve accumulated over time.
-What, was there an Awakener who discovered it first? LOL
-In the end, the guy who ran away took everything.
-Who is that person? Hurry up, urgent. I’m going to join the fan club starting today.
-Oh, that’s disgusting

[Content: These kinds of random events are kind of fun. In the future, if large guilds control hunting grounds, it might be okay to do things like this sometimes?]
-It was an effective means.
– Those who were pushing forward with numbers are now unable to do anything because they are being pushed forward with numbers.
-But this is also acceptable because it is at the level of the Phoenix Guild.
-It seems like it would be difficult to rise to the top even in a large guild.
-There’s nothing we can do about it, it’s a monster colony.
-What’s important is that we showed our own abilities.
In fact, the incident ended so quickly because Hyunseong and Seoian were a few steps ahead of the other Awakened and swept everything away quickly.
If this incident had continued for a long time, it could have escalated into a fight between a large guild and an individual Awakened person.
However, because of Hyunseong’s presence, people’s attention was drawn to him, and only stories about the skeleton and woman who suddenly appeared were exchanged.
In the meantime, a post with a photo attached was also uploaded.
[Title: So what is this skeleton?]
[Author: I really don’t know]
[Content: The 4th floor is where the undead are, but why are there skeletons?]
A skeleton sitting still and a woman seemingly surrounding it.
People couldn’t help but feel puzzled by the strange picture.
-I know.
-I guess he’s a special kind of guy.
-It’s hard to imagine, since it’s a strong skeleton.
-Those who haven’t even reached the 4th floor, let’s reflect on ourselves. Starting with me.
The awakened people begin to make various guesses based on the photos posted in the article.
-There’s a saying that women are monsters. Is that true?
-I don’t know. Most monsters have distinctive features so they can be distinguished, but occasionally there are ones that are indistinguishable from humans.
-There is a representative banshee on the 4th floor.
-Those guys with disheveled hair and screaming like ghosts? They were so freaking annoying.
-That’s because they’re not decorated, but if you tie them up and decorate them a bit, some of them are prettier than people.
N… How do you know that? By any chance…?
Naaaah no! I saw it on youtube!
Link. Urgent. Quick.
-There are so many really weird people in the world.
-I didn’t want to know the abyss.
[Title: Looking at the photo, I can see what happened.]
[Author: Sunae Beam]
[Content: The skeleton looks like a male skeleton, but it was actually a man and a woman who were in love, but the man died. And the woman brought him back to life.]
-Soon.Ae.Jo.Ah
-This is it.
-This is bullshit. Write a novel. Write a novel.
-Nickname lol
-No, if not this, then why would you bring the weakest skeleton with you?
-Don’t you see any signs of battle around you?
Just by looking at the battle traces in the photos, you can guess how fierce the fighting must have been.
It was stranger to think that the skeletons that survived there were ordinary.
[Title: Hey, come to think of it]
[Author: That’s how it was back then]
[Content: Stories that occasionally come up, like finding a skeleton or something. Isn’t that him?]
-Wow, shit lol is this connected like that?
-ㅋㅋㅋThere were so many people who ignored me because they didn’t know anything about the labyrinthㅋㅋㅋ
-The ones who ignored me were the ones who didn’t know anything lol
-Remember, anything can happen in the labyrinth.
-It’s a bit too fast… Is that possible?
[Title: Actually, I’m saying this now]
[Author: Real Steel Man]
[Content: I met him during the incident where I escaped from the arena. But I was strong from then on. I fought back then and barely managed to save my life.]
-Him? A skeleton?
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They say it’s him after seeing the skeleton
-No, but considering how much he screwed over the Phoenix Guild, maybe that’s okay?
-He’s bragging about fighting a skeleton and losing, lol
As this is a hot topic in the awakened community that is used all over the world, this incident has clearly imprinted the existence of Hyunseong on the awakened.
and,
“Tsk.”
A man watching it in the dark.
He sighed as he looked at the words that appeared on his smartphone.
“Those idiots.”
Most of the Awakened found the presence of skeletons and women who had been screwed over by the Phoenix Guild amusing.
This atmosphere was not good for them.
Monsters are the enemies of humans.
If this proposition is not engraved in the minds of the Awakened, their plans will be greatly disrupted.
furthermore…
“You were hiding on the fourth floor.”
The man’s gaze was fixed on the woman in the photo, Seo Ian.
It was so well hidden that I couldn’t find even a trace of it, but I never thought I’d see it like this.
Hanging out with her would probably be the same for skeletons too.
“I guess this is the guy the leader of the Cheonmasingyo cult met.”
It was a headache.
Her presence alone is annoying, but there’s another one like that.
They had to deal with it somehow, if only for the sake of their grand plans.
The man muttered something like that and made a call to someone.
* * *
“Oh my god, I’m dying.”
Hyunseong, who had returned to the castle he could not go to, lay down on the bed groaning.
It would have been nice if I could just fall asleep like this, but my undead body wouldn’t allow it.
‘It would be heaven if I could just have a beer and sleep soundly at a time like this.’
A body that can neither drink nor sleep.
at that time,
Purrrrrr.
Slime, no, tears of God, trembling beside the bed.
It seemed like this guy, like Seol-ah, had self-awareness.
‘It’s fortunate that he didn’t say anything.’
If even God’s Tears were someone like Seol-ah, it would have been difficult for him to handle.
You might have seriously considered throwing one of the two away.
Rather, seeing it tremble and purr occasionally felt healing, like raising a pet.
“Shut up.”
Hyunseong, who had been fiddling with the slime that had been lying down for a while, got up with superhuman patience and sat cross-legged.
The full force of the fourth floor seeped through my bones.
‘But if you keep doing it, you’ll get used to it.’
I thought I would never get used to it.
but,
‘It’s a bit difficult to continue like this.’
There was something I felt from this fight.
That he was relying on the system.
‘That’s not to say it’s bad, but it’s the complacency that’s the problem.’
Saying that you don’t have a body is just a good excuse to run away.
If things continue like this, won’t he become the same being as other Awakened beings?
‘but…’
It would take hundreds, if not decades, to restore its former strength by normal means.
Something different had to be done.
Hyunseong, who was feeling the evil seeping into his bones, suddenly scanned his entire body.
‘A body without a body is not subject to possession by money.’
As long as your chair doesn’t break.
So, we had to take advantage of that and pioneer a new path that no one had ever taken before.
Because in the first place, his own existence itself has never existed.
‘It won’t work the normal way.’
Hyunseong, who thought like that, started to meditate again without getting up from his cross-legged position.
The evil that had seeped through his bones melted and turned into internal energy, and began to run fiercely through his empty body.
‘and…’
Add your own will to the rushing internal energy.
‘This isn’t normal.’
If someone saw me, they might say that this wasn’t martial arts.
However, it was of his own will and not something that was determined by others.
By their standards, he is a being who cannot learn martial arts.
‘My very existence is already nothing short of a miracle.’
If that’s the case, the second one won’t be that difficult either.
The internal energy, which had become more fierce, was now moving so fast that even he could not control it.
‘Damn, I feel like my body is going to explode.’
But it doesn’t explode.
From the danjeon to the blood vessels, qi and blood, etc.
Because everything that contains energy and moves was created by one’s own will.
If this goes wrong, it is because your will is weak.
‘Hold on, Kim Hyun-seong!’
Hyunseong gritted his teeth.
The speed of the fortune telling is getting faster and faster.
At first he had control of it, but now he was running his empty body against his will.
Is this what it would be like to experience the speed of light?
And then, the moment I thought the speed had reached its limit.
Change has come.
‘Are there any scams around?’
I was gradually drawn in.
As if pulled by gravity.
At that moment, all my senses became sharper and I felt like something was going through my head.
There was nothing wrong.
‘This is…’
The things that came into his mind were things that he had previously found difficult to understand.
It felt like I had glimpsed a part of something that I couldn’t explain even if I used everything I knew.
Even though I saw it, and thought about it in my head, I still wasn’t up to the level where I could fully understand it.
but,
‘Just a little more…!’
I felt like if I let go right now because I couldn’t understand it, this was an opportunity that might never come again.
I had to catch even a glimpse of that thread.
Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions.
Hyunseong desperately concentrated as something more than that came to his mind.
at that time,
‘What is this…?’
Among the countless things that came and went in my head, there was something that particularly shone brightly.
Hyunseong turned his consciousness towards it as if he was fascinated by something.
As if reaching out.
And then, the moment that single thread-like thing latched onto the tip of a boneless finger.
Phaaaat!
The surrounding area resonated with Hyunseong, who was having a lucky breakfast.
And with the silence that came.
“Phew.”
Hyunseong let out a deep sigh.
Seol-ah, who had been watching it from beginning to end, asked urgently.
-Hey, what just happened?
Something happened that even he himself found difficult to understand.
It felt like power was swirling inside Hyunseong and then suddenly spread out.
Besides, Hyunseong, who had finished his morning meal, felt something different, although it was hard to explain.
“MuMu, what’s going on?!”
Seoian opens the door wide and comes in.
She seemed to have felt the wave as well, as if she was running urgently.
“Didn’t you say you were taking a break? What the hell happened?”
She looks at Seol-ah as Hyun-seong remains lost in thought and doesn’t say anything.
-No, I don’t know what happened either. I was eating breakfast and it suddenly turned into this.
“While having breakfast?”
After hearing that, Seo Yi-an felt like he had a rough idea of what was going on.
Isn’t this a pattern that appears quite often in martial arts novels?
Hyunseong must have just attained enlightenment!
-No, is that possible just by realizing something?
If I hadn’t seen it myself, I would have thought it was some kind of incredible monster that had evolved to the next level.
“Tsk tsk, this is why I said you can’t be ignorant.”
-I don’t know what’s fun about watching martial arts. Isn’t it just something where you just press the blood pressure and it’s over? I think fantasy that’s flashy and fun to watch is more fun.
“What?! Are you done talking?! This is war!”
Hyunseong, who was lost in thought, returned to reality when he heard Seol-ah and Seo-ian fighting, and his teeth chattered.
“Why are they here all of a sudden?”
Purrrrrr.
Suddenly, the tears of the god that had been on top of his skull began to tremble, seeming to agree with his opinion.
