Chapter 562

C562

Oooh…!

A dark and shadowy energy began to flow from Hroti.

The energy of the Demon God Orb wrapped around Ron like hundreds of black snakes.

That power transformed into Ron’s flesh, bones, and blood.

From his open mouth escaped a warm breath, and his broken body gradually regained its original form.

Ron’s resurrection took a different form than those who had been resurrected with the power of the Demon God Orb before.

It was incomparable to the Specters who only had a physical body.

It was the result of all the Gods of the Demon God Orb admiring his will.

Since Numerus’s disappearance, the Gods had never seen a human overcome death solely with their pure will, without Numerus’s protection.

They hadn’t even heard of it.

Such was the impact of this event.

Although the Gods were trapped inside the Demon God Orb, although they felt fear towards Gliek and were stunned, they could still clearly recognize the miracle that Ron had caused.

A miracle so bright that neither the Demon God Orb nor any other deception or trick could hide.

And it illuminated this dark and terrifying land.

‘I thought such an almost perfect resurrection would be impossible without completing the Demon God Orb…! Ron Hairan, how many times do you intend to surprise me?’

Amazement beyond respect.

Kelliark’s heart beat faster.

Before Gliek awakened, the fact that he looked down on Ron while drinking from the power of the Demon God Orb was humiliating.

Even Gliek seemed impressed.

The power of the Gods to resurrect the dead did not inspire him, but a miracle achieved solely by the will of a single human was worth seeing.

Gliek was not complacent.

It’s just that in a lonely and long immortality like punishment, he didn’t believe there would be another chance to see such a bright miracle.

Moreover, Gliek was looking forward to it.

That human named Ron Hairan could become a being like them.

Just as Kail and the other Black Sea Kings had that wish for Cyron.

Unfortunately, Dante’s will remaining inside Gliek was unaware of Ron’s miracle.

After the beginning of the Black Sea, Dante’s will, which had been like a faint candle, was fading away faster.

Finally, the black energy of the Demon God Orb completely permeated, and Ron opened his eyes with a long sigh.

His body was no longer fragile, like when he had awakened from the brink of death.

The newly attained state of almost mastering the Genesis Knight made him feel the strong power he had never experienced in his life, and all the bones and organs he had lost in exchange for the Supreme Sword were restored to their place.

In the midst of the fully healed body.

There was only one thing that remained the same.

The sorrow of having lost everything.

The sorrow that not even death could make him forget continued to tear, scratch, and shatter his heart.

“Ron-nim.”

Ron turned towards Jin.

Jin couldn’t bear to lift his head.

Jin was suffocated by the guilt of thinking of resurrecting Ron with the Demon God Orb and witnessing it in action.

Ron didn’t say anything to Jin.

Instead, he gently stroked Jin’s shoulders.

It was because he didn’t know words that could convey gratitude and comfort to Jin.

Walking slowly towards Gliek, Ron passed by Kelliark Zipple.

The Demon God Orb no longer trembled in fear.

It wasn’t because it thought it could now defeat Gliek, but to show respect to the human named Ron Hairan.

Kelliark followed him without saying a word.

Talaris, Stam, and the Black Knights also naturally formed around Ron.

Along the path that Kelliark had traversed to come here, Octavia and the Specters and other Zipple Wizards also entered inside, and Rosa and the Knights of Runcandel also joined the battlefield at the same time.

Unlike Zipple’s troops, where it was difficult to find healthy people, the Runcandel seemed to have suffered almost no power losses.

Unlike Kelliark, who put everything aside and rushed to save Jin, Rosa arrived protecting all the knights of her clan.

‘Did Kelliark resurrect Ron Hairan? No, that’s not all.’

Rosa did not directly witness the miracle Ron caused.

But she realized.

The fact that Ron not only revived by the power of the Demon God Orb.

It was because an indescribably pure and strong energy radiated from his back.

The meaning of that energy was clear.

‘He is continually transcending his limits….’

Continuous transcendence.

The current Ron is stronger than the previous Ron.

Rosa’s whole body shivered just with the energy flowing from him.

However, Rosa also knew about the Black Sea King.

The fact that he was an existence that can never be severed without a Genesis Knight.

In the past, she had seen Cyron leap over the wall at every moment just before reaching the Genesis Knight, just like Ron now.

But even Cyron needed a considerable time to climb the last ladder.

Rosa thought that as much as Ron transcended in this fight, it would be impossible for him to reach the end.

Above all, she was worried that if there was even the slightest possibility, she might unknowingly trust him, and that could cloud her judgment.

Except for the Black Knights and the first division of the Black Sword Association, all the Runcandel Knights took their positions on the side of the Vamel Alliance.

They had been ordered to quickly evacuate Jin’s companions and escape from Gliek once the battle began.

Jin didn’t mind.

If Rosa had only worried about Jin, she would never have given such an order.

The reason Rosa saved Jin’s companions was to avoid increasing the number of variables in the already difficult fight.

It was impossible to know how Jin would act if his companions died.

On other occasions, she would control him by force, but she couldn’t afford to against Gliek.

Like Talaris, Rosa also knew that they could only do one thing.

‘If Cyron has already gone beyond the depths of the Black Sea… it will take at least 10 days even if we use the Mortal Snow Toad.’

That meant they had to hold Gliek for more than ten days.

This place was now like the world’s last line of defense.

The moment Gliek pierced through the knights and magicians gathered here and went outside, the world would be under the threat of destruction from that day on.

There were no forces in the current world that could stop a Black Sea King.

Kinzelo was still there.

But the fact that Kinzelo wasn’t here, even though they were the only ones who knew the identity of the White Stone, meant that this was a scenario they wanted in the first place.

‘We will never last that long with combat alone.’

Rosa locked eyes with Talaris.

‘So the key is not Ron Hairan, who has become so strong, not Zipple, who has brought out the Demon God Orb, not our Runcandel, but the Hidden Palace Master….’

The absolute seal of the Hidden Palace.

Only that could buy time until Cyron arrived.

Rosa and Kelliark, the two people who knew the sealing ability of the Hidden Palace, thought the same.

The question was whether the absolute seal of the Hidden Palace could buy more than ten days.

Gliek’s shadow fell on those facing him.

[You… tell me your name]

It was the first time Gliek showed so much attention to someone other than Jin.

“Ron Hairan. The grandfather of the child you devoured, the owner of the land you’re exterminating, and the man who will kill you.”

[Just now, your grandson’s last will has disappeared]

Ron remained undisturbed by those words.

The void within him could no longer be influenced.

He could no longer feel sadness.

The pain entrenched in his heart was like the sea.

Anything added to his sea of pain, the result was that it would sink into the depths of the sea and disappear, and Ron himself couldn’t measure its size and depth.

“Is that so?”

[Not even death could erase your pain. The only path to salvation is to become an existence like me]

Rashid turned gray.

The pattern of the Supreme Sword was engraved on Ron’s body once again.

He had no lingering feelings about the life he had just recovered.

Even if they killed Gliek, what meaning could life have for him afterward?

One of Gliek’s colossal limbs reached out towards Ron, as if to grab him.

[So, if you want to escape eternal agony, come to me]

Instead of responding, Ron lifted Rashid and cut off the arm.

However, the arm that fell to the ground was absorbed by the Black Sea soil and returned to Gliek.

[You always fail to see one step ahead]

It was the moment when Gliek’s interest in Ron suddenly disappeared.

Gliek fixed his gaze on Jin again, and the battle resumed immediately.

Hundreds of swords and spears pressed on the humans faster and more precisely than before, and Ron shouted like a demon and swung Rashid.

The gray sword that extended like a furious blade clashed with Chaos energy.

However, Gliek seemed to have judged that even the Supreme Sword, which Ron had extended in perfect condition, was not such a great threat.

He barely blocked the attack even if Rashid cut anywhere on his body, and he was directing almost all his attacks only on Jin.

Just as Rosa predicted.

Gliek kept Talaris at bay more than Ron.

It was because he realized that there was a person in the current world who had the power to defy fate, and the humans planned to bring him here.

Just as Kial and Cyron recognized the moment Gliek awakened, he, too, was aware of his existence.

Gliek felt his power more clearly as the Black Sea formed, and his mind awakened.

Gliek thought that nothing would be a problem as long as he could prevent the demigod who was fighting his brother from coming.

However, even if the Demigod came here, the possibility of becoming a threat was very low.

It was because he couldn’t be in good condition right after the battle with Kial.

In other words, whether Cyron came or not, the fact that Gliek kept Talaris at bay was just an act that discarded the slightest possibility.

“Hidden Palace Master. If you open the seal, how long can it last against that thing?” Rosa asked, stepping in front of Talaris.

“…It’s difficult for it to last more than three days, Rosa Runcandel.”

Upon hearing the answer, Rosa had no choice but to grit her teeth.
