Episode 180. Transcendence (1)
Yoon Ji-ho’s status window appeared.

《Yoon Ji-ho》

Overall Battle Level: 7.99

Race: Human

Unique Trait: Apostle of Righteous Gaia

Relationship: Trust (MAX)

“……crazy.”

The first thing that caught my eye was the overall combat level.

It was as high as 7.99.

At this level, I think it would be safe to say that it is practically an 8-star rating.

‘My level is 7.61…’

It was even taller than me.

Of course, if they were to fight for real, this level of difference would be easily covered by variables, but somehow it was disappointing that the basic weight classes were reversed.

anyway.

‘The characteristics have also changed.’

Yoon Ji-ho’s original unique trait was “Hero of Justice”.

A trait that increases stats by 5 times when you have a righteous heart.

That was changed to the trait of “Apostle of the Righteous Gaia.”

It seemed that being chosen by Seongjong, a mythical relic, had even influenced its unique characteristics.

and.

‘… Fortunately, there is no problem with the trust relationship.’

Even though his specs suddenly improved dramatically, Yoon Ji-ho was still Yoon Ji-ho.

Those who trust me and want to repay the favor.

【Ahh! Eugene, did you really think that Jiho could betray Eugene!?】

‘… … .’

Honestly, I couldn’t confidently say no.

‘… It’s a truly mythical item.’

The rank of the ‘Gaia’s Holy Bell’ is mythical.

And the rank of 「Power: Guardian Contract」 is Legend.

It was a fact that my skill level had dropped by one level.

That’s why.

No matter how much the information in the “Guardian Contract” explained that it could ‘absolutely’ not betray, it was impossible not to feel uneasy.

Suddenly, ‘But, ta-da! There is no such thing as absolute.’ Could it be that the ‘Guardian Contract’ becomes invalid?

【Eugene really… lacks faith! Distrusts humans!!!】

Frill gave me a scolding.

‘… I can’t help it.’

Life is give and take.

Isn’t it true that a relationship can only be maintained when it is clear what both parties have to give and receive?

When anyone finds themselves in a situation where they are at a disadvantage, they will gradually feel less and less need to maintain that relationship.

【Eugene really doesn’t know Jiho at all!】

‘There’s nothing I can do since I’m human. Jiho won’t have any regrets from me anymore. It was a good thing we made the “Guardian Contract.”‘

【You idiot!】

‘why?’

【Do you really think Jiho won’t betray Eugene because of the “Guardian Contract”?】

‘That’s it….’

Of course I think so too.

Aside from the fact that he couldn’t systematically betray me, Yoon Ji-ho wanted to be of help to me enough right now.

but.

‘… There’s a difference between never being able to betray someone and being able to betray someone when the time comes.’

It is not easy for the human mind to always remain the same.

I knew that fact very well.

【Oh my.】

Frill sighed and shook his head, but whatever.

‘Okay. It’s okay anyway.’

The important thing is that my guardian, Yun Ji-ho, has become incredibly strong.

and.

“Ah! Apostle Yun Ji-ho!”

“You are the one chosen by the goddess…!”

“Ohhhh…! I can’t believe I’m seeing this with my own eyes!”

Now, it was absolutely clear that Yun Ji-ho had obtained the justification to take over the Gaia Church.

Shwaaaa …

Amidst the commotion of the church members, the light surrounding Yun Ji-ho faded.

Yoon Ji-ho, who exudes an atmosphere that has become more sacred without anyone knowing.

“I am ashamed, but I am now acting on behalf of the Goddess. May your future path be blessed.”

As the boy spread his arms out in reverence, a holy light burst out, enveloping everyone around him.

“Ah, ahh…!”

“Oh…!”

Church members close their eyes and clasp their hands together.

and.

Tiring!

[The ‘Apostle of Righteous Gaia’ wishes to give you a special blessing.]

[When you accept a blessing, all abilities will be greatly increased permanently!]

[There will be no disadvantages even if you refuse.]

[Would you like to accept it?]

In my case, I was able to understand its effectiveness more specifically thanks to the “Tenauses System.”

‘Permanent ability increase…?’

It was definitely a good effect.

Besides, it will probably only have a positive effect.

but.

‘… The divine power thing is a bit of a concern.’

The only thing that’s holding me back is the power of ‘Gaia’, which I’ve hated so much.

At that moment, my eyes met with Yoon Ji-ho’s.

“… .”

The guy’s straight eyes were looking straight at me.

A deep sense of trust was conveyed to me.

【Eugene. Jiho says this is a power he can’t digest anyway?】

‘okay?’

【Yes. The power contained in Seongjong is so great that if you don’t accept it now, it’ll be forfeited.】

‘…after.’

If that’s the case, then yes.

Because I can’t throw away my good strength.

‘I will receive the blessing.’

[You have accepted the blessing.]

[All abilities are permanently greatly increased!]

Hwa-ah-ah-ah-

Immediately, a warm feeling seeped into my body.

no.

A feeling that doesn’t stop at the body, but gently embraces the soul.

‘Well… is that so?’

to be honest.

Even if you had granted me a permanent ability boost, I probably wouldn’t have accepted it before.

Because I was the type of person who would tremble at the thought of the Gaia Church.

Because I was so reluctant to even use their power.

but.

‘This… It really seems like Yoon Ji-ho’s beliefs were right.’

When Yoon Ji-ho is subjected to “Judgment”.

The enforcement power of the “Guardian Contract” and the characteristics of the “Champion of Justice” are strangely mixed.

The guy created a strange concept called the ‘Eugene Sect’.

‘The theory was that the goddess Gaia was not wrong, but the current Gaia cult was rotten.’

At first, of course, I thought it was sophistry.

I just left it alone because it seemed like it would help me with my revenge.

however.

‘The real Gaia’s sacred relic chooses Yun Ji-ho and grants him this much power?’

Look at the situation going on now.

No matter how I looked at it, it was clear.

‘What Yoon Ji-ho said is right.’

The Gaia Cult was actually acting contrary to the teachings of the Goddess Gaia.

in other words.

‘If the target of my revenge is truly the ‘Gaia Cult’, then there is no need to fight against the ‘Gaia Goddess’ who has a different position from them.’

It is true that the Gaia Church was rotten.

If even the goddess abandoned the religious order.

So if you are trying to normalize the church through Yoon Ji-ho.

There is no reason not to use it for that purpose.

Tiring!

[Comprehensive battle level increases!]

[7.61 → 7.99]

Thanks to that, I was able to grow to the same level as Yoon Ji-ho.

Whatever the case, this blessing was a total hit.

at that time.

An additional system message caught my eye.

[Human growth has reached its limit!]

[You need ??? to break through the limit.]

Why the overall battle level is stuck at 7.99.

‘Does it take something more to become an 8-star?’

It seemed like that was the case.

Anyway, this pretty much concludes the spec-up that can be done quickly─

Tiring!

“…?”

But the message didn’t end there.

[We discovered a ‘dragon body’ engraved on the user’s body.]

[I discovered ‘immortality’ engraved on the user’s soul.]

[You have discovered a ‘transcendent power’ engraved in the user’s soul.]

[Condition met!]

[Users can overcome their limits!]

[When breaking through the limit, the user’s race value changes.]

[Would you like to go beyond the limits?]

“what….”

There were a lot of messages.

Even each and every one of them was unusual.

‘To put it simply, it sounds like I can become an 8-star hunter right now… .’

The individual elements of that mechanism were quite unusual.

First, the “Dragon Body”.

This is the power of the dragon, and it is changing my body to become closer to a dragon.

Thanks to this, he became much stronger and was able to gain great favor from Metheus, who called him a fellow tribesman.

Next, ‘Immortal’.

This is the reward obtained by defeating the Immortal King at the Immortal King Gate.

At the time, I had no idea what it was, but it seemed to be a material used to surpass the 8th level.

and.

‘…Transcendent power.’

There was only one of these.

‘「One Punch」.’

The existing myth-level power, “Breath”, changed to suit me and became the transcendent-level power, “One Punch”.

I think this will help me overcome my limitations now.

“… .”

For revenge, I pride myself on having lived quite a hard life.

There were many things I learned along the way, some of which were immediately helpful, while others I had no idea what they would be used for.

however.

‘I can’t believe all the things I’ve done so far are connected like this.’

All of those things ended up helping me get over the wall.

Feeling such a good feeling, I thought.

‘There’s no reason not to do it. Transcendence.’

[You have chosen to transcend limits!]

[The race value is from human─]

‘But, if it’s going to be noisy, then not now.’

[… .]

[You have selected ‘Hold’ to transcend the limit.]

There were a lot of eyes watching now.

Of course, Yoon Ji-ho and her father were okay with it, but they didn’t necessarily want to show something in front of the Gaia believers.

‘Well… they’re on our side now, but still.’

Since the schedule related to the sacred relics seems to have been roughly completed, I can do the personal growth called ‘Transcending Limits’ after taking care of everything here.

at that time.

Tiring!

[The opportunity to ‘transcend’ doesn’t come often.]

[We recommend that you select within 1 hour!]

A system message has been prompting you to make a selection.

“… … .”

What is this? It’s not a pharmacist.

* * *

Fortunately, the cleanup didn’t take long.

Because there was Yoon Ji-ho, who had gained overwhelming control over Gaia’s followers.

The guy decided to lead everyone out of the dungeon.

“Brother. Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Yeah. I wasn’t worried to begin with, but thanks to you, I’m even less worried now.”

“I’m glad it helped.”

I asked Yoon Ji-ho, who was smiling happily, while glancing at the believers behind him.

“You won’t have any trouble controlling those guys, right?”

“Yes! I can do it!”

“Okay. I’ll believe you. Then let’s go out and see.”

“Yes, bro!”

In this way, Yun Ji-ho led the believers out of the dungeon.

Looking at their backs, my father said to me.

“We should also start leaving soon.”

“Yes, father.”

He nodded.

Unlike those who are leaving, I will stay here.

Because there is still work to be done.

The task was to use the hidden piece of the ‘Troll King’s Cursed Club’ to travel to the ‘Frost Giant Habitat’ and unlock the ‘Frost Giant Leather Jacket’ to grow it to Legendary grade.

‘Well, I have enough specs on my own…’

Thanks to Yoon Ji-ho, the overall combat level has skyrocketed.

Therefore, it seemed like it would be sufficient to conquer the ‘Frost Giant Habitat’ alone, but there was no need to insist on doing it alone.

I decided to conquer the ‘Frost Giant Habitat’ dungeon with my father.

like that.

“Here it is.”

“You’re good at finding things.”

“Yes. Well… I knew all the hidden conditions.”

Bam!

I used the ‘Troll King’s Cursed Club’ to open the door leading to the frost giant habitat.

Kwau …

[Frost Giant Habitat]

– A place where frost giants who worship the primordial giants gather.

– Frost giants indiscriminately attack all living creatures that are not of the same species.

– The hidden piece of the ice series, ‘Bingjeong’, is sleeping.

– Appropriate entry level: 7.5

– Boss attack appropriate level: 8.2

– Be careful not to encounter boss monsters!

So, I entered the ‘Frost Giant Habitat’ with my father.

It was a snowy field with a blizzard raging.

and.

“Haha. A battle as soon as you enter. This dungeon must be difficult.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

It was also a place where giant frost giants discovered us and rushed at us as soon as we entered.

Wow wow wow wow!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Sling-

My father took out his sword and spoke to me.

“For the first time, we will fight together without worrying about what others think.”

It seems he is quite happy to fight alongside his son.

And I answered that father.

“Excuse me, but could you give me some time alone?”

“… … ?”

There was no choice.

[The opportunity to ‘transcend’ doesn’t come often!]

[Really last chance!]

[We strongly recommend that you select within 1 minute!]

Because this damn system message kept selling me drugs.
