148. But there was no reverse (2)
Suddenly, in front of my eyes, a miniature version of the body of the Legion Hive Mind was created! appeared.
One real dragon and one fake dragon watched this and couldn’t hide their bewildered expressions.
“Looks like I need some explanation.”
“Me too. Mr. Jiwoo, please explain in detail so that I can understand… … .”
They deserved such a reaction.
I have yet to reveal this ability to anyone in the Legion.
“It’s a secret technique that Jeniel and his friends had. Could it be some kind of down payment?”
“down payment… … What?”
“They want to take me and the legion, so I have to buy the ransom and the necessary insurance.”
I have alien friends who boast a different level of ability when it comes to dealing with life.
And after this war was over, I was in a situation where I decided to do something worthwhile with my sad alien friends who didn’t know how to eat because they didn’t have mouths.
It is to plant the seeds of new life in a world that has become empty due to extinction.
“The Legion can sow the seeds of life very thickly, roaming all planes on its own, as long as I give orders to them.”
There was one reason why those friends coveted my corps.
The corps I lead have excellent convenience, high efficiency, and strong adaptability.
If they can borrow and use the abilities of these corps, it will be easier for them to carry out their duties.
“But if I die in this war, it will be a bit difficult.”
So I asked my friends.
He said that he would lend the corps’ abilities as much as he wanted for such a worthwhile task.
But before that, for safety, to be precise, I asked for a secret technique that would prevent me from dying in this war.
“Is this their ability?”
“okay. Are your friends better than they look? Hey, isn’t your body made by those friends? Did you forget?”
“ah… … .”
The ability of Jeniel’s species was truly beyond imagination.
The friends picked up common organic materials around them and put them together here and there.
Then, on the spot, the seed of life is suddenly created, a magic-like thing that I saw when I was really young.
Of course, as I am quite competent in this area, I was able to imitate the process of creating a tissue by combining organic matter, although it took time and was clumsy.
But no matter how I followed the process, all that came out of my hand was a chunk of meat without a soul.
In order for the seed to sprout, of course, a secret technique to deal with the soul is required.
Unlike me, those friends were like apostles of life.
He even possessed the amazing ability to use his divine power to infuse the soul into the seed of life so that it sprouts properly.
This is no different from the story of creating life from clay.
Their secret arts reached a level of new life creation that even other high-ranking nobles could not easily do.
The problem was to infuse souls among the secret arts the friends were using.
This esoteric was based on the divine power of the high nobleman they enshrined.
This belonged to an area that I could not easily follow.
But now I am in a situation where I can handle the power of divine power.
I’m not good at it yet, but I’ve been able to imitate what those friends do to some extent.
“Thanks to that, I got the ability to be immortal.”
It was the power they got from them.
I now have the ability to fuse my alter egos and create an entirely new body.
Even if my main body dies, as long as my spirit is alive, and unless all the objects of my alter egos scattered here and there in the world die, I can never die.
The long-cherished dream of ‘a perfect unemployed person who can live forever enjoying what he wants without scarcity’ has finally been completed.
“Your story… … Really?”
“Ha, have you really been deceived? Really then.”
“Is it true that you don’t die?”
“Oh, it’s true, that’s why.”
I know why this Yonggary friend insisted that he would use the power contained in the necklace and self-destruct.
Of course, the divine power I am using comes from the body that has settled in Purgatory.
It is said that if I use the power of the necklace to blow up Purgatory, my body will be caught up in it and exploded very cleanly.
“I know what you’re worried about, but you don’t have to. Because from now on, I’ve become a person who doesn’t know anything about death.”
There wasn’t much of a problem with my use of this authority.
It will take some time to regain control, but all you have to do is recreate the Legion’s hive mind with the Secret of Life.
“If you understand what I am saying, give me the necklace now.”
“But this… … .”
“Let’s hit a nobleman in the back of the head asking if it’s a plague or something.”
I could see the high-ranking nobleman’s ulterior motive in sending me this necklace.
It was clear that the nobleman, the god of plague or whatever, was strongly yearning for my death.
If the nobleman called Plague really had any intention of helping the legion, he would have chosen a much safer and surer way than this.
For example, our high-ranking person who decided to help the legion sent his apostle King Arthur and his men to the legion without hesitation.
Not only that, but he lent his divine power so that he could cross over to purgatory, and even gave him light to use as energy in this isolated world of darkness.
However, the nobleman called the plague was relentless and sent me an item to overcome the situation.
It is also an item that has no choice but to accept and eat in the current situation, and contains a very coveted power.
An item that contains the power to force you to do ‘Dongguieou’.
What could this mean?
Let’s assume that I ate this power at once.
So what if I die as the man wished?
If so, what will happen in the future is obvious.
That nobleman would either swallow the legion I left behind whole, or he would definitely try to swallow me, the main axis of the legion.
If that didn’t work, it seemed that he wanted to take the soul of a Keraphim with quite a bit of power.
“But they say there was no reversal.”
Naturally, the reversal he hopes for here will not happen.
“Okay, let’s go back everyone. I’ll take care of this on my own. Send Nemesis back to the original world.”
* * *
Nemesis colonies and living quarters have been noisy for the first time in a while.
The biggest problem was that the administrator, who was fine at first, collapsed and was carried back by the successor apostle.
“Hey, Priestess Luna. Is my brother okay?”
“I’ve been treated once… … .”
“I did… … ?”
“I’m not sure why you’re not waking up.”
“… … under.”
There was no trace of blood on the face of the manager who was lying on his bed.
Her breathing was feeble, as if it would stop at any moment, and despite receiving treatment, her consciousness showed no signs of returning.
“What are the opinions of the healing players?”
“There is nothing wrong with the old man’s body. There is absolutely nothing to offer a surgical opinion.”
“Ha, that’s crazy. If there is nothing wrong, why is it not breaking?”
“that is… … We don’t know either.”
The expressions of some of the personnel who returned to Nemesis were not very good.
They already knew that the Administrator had burned their life force to attack Baal.
The biggest problem they face right now is that no one knows what kind of side effects the act of drawing out and using up one’s own life force will cause.
First of all, all the magicians and priests in the corps were mobilized, and the treatment that could be tried was done.
However, even their treatment of reviving unconditionally as long as the breath is attached did not wake the administrator.
“Apostle Jung.”
“Yes, Mr. Kang Jin-hyuk.”
“Have you ever eaten this chocolate?”
“… … Give it to me.”
Unfortunately, the chef’s unusual taste and smell of chocolate was of little use.
“Apostle Jung.”
“Yes, Mr. Garam.”
“By any chance, wouldn’t it wake up if an elderly woman came?”
“… … Hey, we could all be killed by the sister-in-law for doing something like that.”
“Ah, a joke in this situation… … .”
“I am not kidding.”
“… … Yes?”
I don’t know what kind of person that sister-in-law is, but the method the leader came up with was also blocked by the true face of apostle Jung Sung-cheol.
“I think that… … .”
“My king.”
“Listen.”
“I don’t want to hear it.”
“… … .”
King Arthur, who was feeling remorse for the way his successor had become, lost his right to speak for nothing.
The eyes of the party looking at him were different from before, so if he went out now, he might be really stunned.
“Who is this all about… … .”
“… … .”
Now there was a strange atmosphere in which they did not hide their distrust and annoyance towards each other.
In this way, the atmosphere of the Nemesis colony has become the most gloomy since they were united.
“Ha, how did things get to this point… … .”
It’s definitely a dark situation right now.
One of the two pillars leading the Legion’s alliance now stretched out, unconscious.
And the other pillars were not even properly contacted.
He went out to stop the last rites, but the situation over there didn’t look very good as the thick black mist didn’t seem to clear.
Now, as usual, no one was willing to crack a joke to change the mood.
No, there was only a bloody atmosphere that made you want to be beaten to death if you said even one wrong word, let alone a joke.
In a situation where the two people who led the corps were simultaneously detached, they lost the energy to maintain the cheerful atmosphere as before.
“… … It’s frustrating.”
After some time passed, one person who couldn’t stand this uncomfortable atmosphere came out to sort things out.
“When the rulers and administrators of the Legion leave, who is next in command? Who will be in command?”
The eyes of the members of the corps turned to the person who had just spoken, that is to say, the emperor of the continent.
But their gaze was quickly scattered.
Even when asked who was in command of the corps, no one could readily give an appropriate answer.
The Legion hadn’t decided on a third spot in the first place.
To make matters worse, there is no Keraphim, who is said to be the strongest in terms of strength.
The Lord of Guardians, who seemed the most suitable person to entrust the next command, is also absent.
Since the existence to be responsible for something has disappeared, it is a situation where those who have always been under the manager and ruler have no choice but to panic.
“You said you were the former Demon King, right?”
“Emperor of the continent, I am in charge of the surviving demons, not the corps. I have neither the qualifications nor the ability to do so.”
“… … I heard that you are the manager of another world.”
“Um, that’s what I mean. I don’t even have the ability to control an army… … .”
Instead, the emperor’s eyebrows crumpled as he asked the members of the corps for personal information one by one in order to select a person to take command.
Neither the demon kings of the previous era, nor the administrators of other worlds, nor the apostles of God all had the ability to control the army.
“Isn’t there anyone who can temporarily take control of the Legion? Is there anyone who can go into the mist and bring back the ruler of the Legion or help him?”
When the emperor asked again, there were three people who quietly raised their hands.
“I can control the Legion to some extent, but… … .”
“It is possible to a certain extent.”
“I can, but… … .”
The anxious gazes of the party flocked to them.
“A cook, a cook assistant, and a colony escort… … .”
It was then.
“There is no need for that.”
A woman’s voice echoed through the Hive’s living quarters.
