Returned as a Transcendent Genius Summoner - Chapter 245
Only Noblemtl
Episode 245 – The Last Hero, Lucas
The predator felt it.
The false queen, the created dummy of Hecate, felt fear and spoke of the impossible.
It was the first time.
It feels like there is a being this strong, with the power to single-handedly destroy the world.
Wasn’t it just the largest fragment?
Is it really right that those who follow the Summoner can wield such power?
It’s a disaster.
Since it was information that did not exist, data had to be accumulated, but no time was given to accumulate information or anything like that.
[What a disaster.]
I never thought there would be someone with such power.
Was this a remark that pointed out the blind spot of the method of issuing orders based on gathered information rather than seeing with one’s own eyes and making judgments on the spot?
The predator had to admit his defeat cleanly.
[Then it is right that my dust should disappear from here.]
[Your Majesty, could it be-?]
The real Hecate, who had been continuously being fed information, asked in surprise.
What is your second father saying now?
Surely you’re not going to go to the battlefield yourself?
As always, ominous feelings turn out to be true.
Hecate knew that she would go to the battlefield herself.
That’s what a secret weapon should be.
But you’re leaving yourself behind and going forward yourself?
[I’d rather step forward. I can block the variables.]
[Do you still have even a shred of affection left? It’s impossible. Besides, since you are destined to lead a new world, you must continue to grow.]
[… … .]
Hecate’s last gamble failed, and the giant body began to move.
Kkwaddeukduk-!
One who moves as if a part of the world is being torn away entirely.
However, the silhouette that was revealed as it headed towards the battlefield was at best the size of a mechanical human.
His gaze seemed to pierce through Hecate’s eyes.
“You just have to be a faithful servant and open your eyes to a better world.”
A voice mixed with mechanical noise.
Hecate fell into despair again, and the Devourer finally began to move.
It was the moment when world-ending disasters bared their teeth at each other.
‘Gina, run away… … .’
Phage crackle-!
The tidal wave of information is coming again.
Hecate, dark and unconscious, emitting red sparks, was in the process of being reborn as the true queen of Rubinos.
[Ruler of Rubinos: Ixera, the Devourer, heads to the battlefield.]
[If he is killed, the collapse of the world will be postponed indefinitely.]
[When the world collapses, the scope of training expands.]
[Please choose from a variety of races to participate in the training.]
The upheaval of the world.
And the impact it will have on the planet.
It was all in Hwanung’s hands.
This is on Behemoth’s back.
After Nergo was removed from power, Lucas received this message from Hwanung.
There will be no support from Nergo for the next 24 hours.
So, we will have to face more enemies.
How many hours have passed since then?
It was getting dark, and visibility was poor due to the fog and destruction caused by the battle.
Some of the summoned creatures have returned to the Sea of ??Souls.
Lucas let out a small sigh, trying to recover his stamina a little whenever he had the chance.
“Phew… … .”
“Lucas, are you tired already?”
“It’s okay. Miho, you take care. You’ve been getting blindly attacked for a while now.”
“I’m okay with this much, right?”
Miho was also sweating profusely trying to maintain control of her territory.
In addition, the potions that Odern had supplied were slowly running out.
To endure this for another week would be tantamount to suicide.
If they weren’t summoned beasts, they probably would have been frightened and given up long ago.
‘The pressure is intense, but it’s not as desperate as it was then.’
Lucas brandished his sword and struggled to survive the hellish 24 hours.
Nia was busy intercepting the enemies coming up from the air, and Lucy and the angels also tried their best to prevent them from landing, but Rubinos’ forces continued to surge forward without stopping.
Reverse scale.
A passageway connected to the heart of Behemoth and his only weakness.
The enemies that were advancing towards him were gradually eating away at Lucas’ mental and physical strength.
Before we knew it, the battle was turning towards conserving Lucas’ stamina as much as possible.
“shift!”
“Epsilon, can you hold out?”
“Yes! Don’t worry!”
It was fortunate that Epsilon and his colleagues were guarding the narrow entrance. If it had been a plain, it would have been breached long ago.
Like a swarm of ants mounting an elephant, Rubinos’ army is still advancing.
A moment when both Epsilon and Miho clearly showed signs of exhaustion.
Lucas circulated his aura until he was fully recovered, then stood up again.
‘I’ve been in a similar situation before.’
A strange sense of foreboding weighed on his entire body.
failure.
failure.
Humanity and oneself, who have only experienced repeated failures.
But he knew.
It is because I have failed so many times that I am who I am today, and it is because I have felt the pain of failure so deeply that I can feel the sweetness of success even more.
Right now is the moment when success is desperately needed.
If you succeed in such a difficult time-.
“Get out.”
Rubinos’ powerful soldiers launched a simultaneous attack toward Epsilon.
Can Epsilon’s tattered shield withstand the attack?
Lucas stepped forward without hesitation and pushed Epsilon back.
“Lucas!?”
“It’s dangerous!”
It was Lucas’ instinct that did it, and it was also proof that he had surpassed some level.
Lucas’ auror began to glow platinum.
I remembered the story of the warrior I had told my friends when I was young.
I thought it was all a bluff.
Everyone else would have done the same.
Even if you can stop the arrow, how do you return it back to me?
When I was young, I thought it was just empty talk and tall tales… … .
Strangely enough, it seemed like I could see the path now.
It was the result of Lucas’ recent struggles, the crises and failures he had experienced for the first time in a while, his strengthened beliefs, and his skills that had grown without him knowing it.
‘Did Narae feel this way too?’
If Narae gained enlightenment through nature, Lucas began to see enlightenment after much effort.
It’s all up to your will.
I realized that humans can rise as high as they want, depending on their mindset.
It was a realization that came to me out of the blue, and it meant that the realm I had built up until then had gone beyond the wall.
That’s how it is.
You can’t see anything until you get over the wall.
Even at the moment when you could see just one more step up, there was only a dark obstacle in front of the wall.
“This is what it felt like.”
Peeing-.
The sword extended, catching and confining all of Rubinos’ beam attacks within a single line.
All those attacks bounced back to the same orbit they came from.
Kwaaaaang-!
All the elite soldiers started to be destroyed with the sound of an explosion.
If you believe the legend of the warrior is true, then it will be so.
Everything that those who have built up strength without rest believe will become true.
He who manifests [power] will be able to become the final warrior.
“This is how it feels.”
“Lucas, you… … .”
The once dazzling blonde hair turned into a pure white platinum color.
The color of his eyes became darker, and a superhuman energy spread out in all directions.
Some people might have called it this.
One who has surpassed the master.
[Grand Master] who has transcended human realm.
That was the level Lucas had achieved so far.
If only I was just a little bit faster, I would have had enough power to save the world on my own.
He gripped Matthias’ sword tightly.
“Isn’t it too late now?”
“Lucas, you… … .”
“Oh, you have finally achieved transcendence!”
Lucas shook his head.
Because it didn’t seem like it was a perfect power.
‘I still don’t have enough strength to maintain this state. Is it some kind of transformation?’
Still, it seemed like I could now hold out for 24 hours.
If I can make this power completely mine, I will achieve complete transcendence.
“I won’t lose to Narae then.”
Great things come late.
Any large vessel takes a long time to be completed.
And the news was delivered intact to Hwanung.
[Lucas has reached a state of transcendence.]
[Lucas temporarily transcends.]
[Transcendence Maintenance Time: 6 hours per day]
[As Lucas’ experience increases, the duration of his transcendence increases.]
[The moment the power stabilizes, Lucas evolves.]
“This is how transcendence progresses. And… … .”
Completed two summons or transcendence paths at once.
Hwanung felt a presence approaching from afar and decided to prepare for the final battle.
Because there was no point in holding on anymore.
Hwanung turned his eyes away from the message and looked at the silhouette approaching from afar.
[Tell Lucas, Behemoth and Nia to come over here.]
Anyway, once we catch that guy, it’s over.
Kuuung-.
Before Hwanung could finish his thoughts, a man wearing red armor landed on the ground.
“You are the greatest fragment. King of souls and resurrection.”
Iksera, the ruler of the red army and the world-eater, appeared before Hwanung.
This is reality.
This is the Amazon rainforest.
The Orc Village was having another busy day today.
Now that their master is gone, they will definitely need to lay a solid foundation to thrive.
They were strangers who had settled here and were forced to coexist with humans.
Fortunately, Galion and several summoned creatures remained here and were in charge of mediating with the humans.
“Oh, so I’m telling you, you shouldn’t fight an orc with a black dragon drawn on it.”
“Are you sure that’s the summoner’s summon?”
“That’s what I mean. What are you guys? You’ve probably already seen it all with that little transmitter thing. I’m Gallion.”
“Umm… … .”
“I wonder if it’s true, but let’s go back for now. The orc’s gaze is definitely different.”
Although there have been some who have entered the orc territory while hunting, there have been no major conflicts so far.
It became a time when everyone in the world feared the power of Hwanung.
Yeah, that’s a popular saying these days.
[National power level] power, you say?
Hwanung proudly put his name on that tremendous title.
Of course, it was a story that the parties involved did not know well.
“Let’s go, let’s go.”
“Haha, I ask for your help in the future!”
If Galion hadn’t intervened directly, only more innocent humans would have died.
Their power was great, but the orcs here were also dizzy when it came to battle.
Now the chieftain, Galion smiled slightly and entered the village again.
“Hey, I should have followed Master. I get bored chopping wood all day.”
“Chief-!”
“Hey, what’s going on!”
“Look, look over there!”
An orc approached, panting and calling out to Galion.
When I looked where he was pointing, I saw a dense forest.
A gate opened in the middle of the orc village.
