When the world was getting closer to an end, the priests cried out to God.

However, despite their desperate prayers, the saints were burned in the fire. It was impossible to prevent the world from falling apart and the merciless death of the believers. The Pope couldn’t be the light of hope for mankind, and so for other religions.

When the Vatican was on fire, and everyone in the chapel was waiting for their death. When everyone blamed God and gave up their hope.

A girl's last prayer was answered.

Above the burning castle, a white giant appeared with a long spear that seemed to reach the sky. unnamed

The majestic giant killed the two lords who appeared in the Vatican with just two blows with the holy spear, and the saints who were walking the path of destruction were saved.

The giant was the ‘angel’.

The revered beings, who are believed to be the beings that protect humans.

An agent of a sublime God known to answer human prayers and to empower and protect those who follow the doctrine.

The angel with the spear said,

‘On the day when the sky opens, more angels will come down.’

After that, the girl was revered as a saint, and she could become one of the first heroes to receive the power of purification, healing, and the protection of the great angel.

And the spear that was used by the great angel who protected the saint, was the holy spear that sealed the Lord of Corruption.

“This cannot happen….!”

Seeing the holy spear reacting to Jin-seong's touch, the magic swordsman had no choice but to make a blank expression.

“The magic swordsman, I’m asking you again.”

The magic swordsman, who had only been complaining about his words, was now very confused.

“Can you promise me one thing?”

“.....”

Jin-seong stared at him without saying a word.

“Can you keep the promise to defeat the Lord of Corruption no matter what happens?”

Sssk.

Jin-seong responded as he turned around.

“I will also defeat all the demon kings.”

“.....Ha.”

In response to Jin-seong's casual response, the magic swordsman shook his head.

Even though it was a very unrealistic answer, he somehow felt so relieved.

‘Alright…. As long as he can keep that promise….’

The magic swordsman put his hand to the ground as he smiled.

In an instant, a large semicircle appeared around the magic swordsman, and a magic circle engraved in rune language was created, emitting light.

Koong!

“Okay….. Let’s go.”

Kggggggg….!

There was a strong quake.

“A,aaaa?!”

Kang Min-ah, who’s been sleeping without knowing what was happening, jumped out of the fountain.

“What, what is that?”

Kang Min-ah started wearing the armors and weapons she took off in a hurry.

“Jin-seong?! What are you doing?! And, did I fall asleep?!”

Kang Min-ah couldn’t hide her shock.

The golden pillar in front of him was shining.

Then, a strong wind began coming out from the spear.

[The holy spear Gae Assail reacts to the unnamed god!]

[The unnamed god assimilates the holy spear to Lee Jin-seong!]

The magic swordsman, who was restraining the holy power to prevent an explosion, shouted.

“Still not done?!”

“It’s almost done!”

Suddenly,

Tiring!

[By the unnamed god, the holy spear is now assimilated to Lee Jin-seong for use!]

And at the end, the holy spear emitted a strong light.

“Keuk!”

“Ah!”

Everyone closed their eyes due to the strong light.

After a short silence, the magic swordsman looked at Lee Jin-seong in a daze.

“....You….”

Pzzz, pzz…!

He held a spear in a long, slender white silver and gold color with blue sparks.

Hoosh!

Jin-seong began to wield the spear, which adjusted its size for him to use.

“Hm….”

Then, he carefully looked at the form of the spear.

+ Name: Gae Assail Rating: Transcendence Description: Also known as ‘Rue’s Spear’, it is a holy weapon that only the angels or ones with holy power that reach the level of an angel can use.

Effect:

The higher the demon species is, the more deadly the attack is. Demonstrate the power of purification. The size can be adjusted in response to the user's will.

*The size has been adjusted according to the current user. +

Hoosh….!

Jin-seong wielded the spear a couple of times.

A silver pendulum was attached to the tip of the spear's hilt, and the golden spear blade was sharp and pointed.

'It’s light and has an excellent center of gravity.'

At the spear that was as good as he expected, Jin-seong nodded.

Kgggggg….!

The dead body of the giant began to react as the spear that pierced the head was no longer there.

The tumors that covered the giant’s body moved actively and the spore masses began to fill up the giant’s head.

The spore passes didn’t only fill up the head but also grew in other parts of the body.

“....Damn it…!”

The magic swordsman, whose past nightmare was recalled, swore.

Kang Min-ah asked.

“Jin-seong! What are you going to do?!”

Jin-seong spoke in calmness.

“That giant will soon head to the heart.”

“Then we should stop him!”

“No, I will let him go.”

The magic swordsman shouted impatiently.

“Are we not supposed to do that?!”

“It’s okay.”

Jin-seong spoke as he wielded the spear.

“Now, we only need to get the last ingredient.”

Muhyuk could finally sit down.

“Whew….”

The crisis was over, and as planned, Park Moo-hae ran away to the direction of where his teacher was.

Sssk…..

Suddenly, a shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

“I can’t understand….”

When he lifted his head, a blonde hair fairy was looking down at him.

Muhyuk asked as he looked up at her.

“....Are you going to arrest me?”

“.....”

Setz, who silently stared at Muhyuk, turned her head. Then, she walked up to the heart.

Now the heart was in the state of lull and was no longer pouring eggs. She asked Muhyuk calmly.

“You risked your life fighting with them, but why did you let them run away in the end?”

Without saying anything, Muhyuk stared at the onyx blade he was holding.

“....It’s something that my teacher asked for.”

“Are you talking about professor Lee?”

Setz stared at Muhyuk as she spoke.

“....what you’re worried about won’t happen.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m saying that you no longer need to worry about professor Kang becoming a devil…”

Ching!

When Muhyuk mentioned Kang Min-ah, Setz was enraged. And she spoke as she aimed her sword at him.

“Are you trying to joke with me?”

Park Moo-hae, Jo Yong-ho, and jingjo survived and ran away. Seeing Setz in frustration, Muhyuk shook his head.

“We didn’t lose them. They will die.”

“....How?”

Muhyuk, who was touching his onyx blade, looked up at her.

“Because the sword is craving.”

At the subway track, the secret exit path.

“Damn it…! The fairy...!”

Park Moo-hae started cussing.

Jo Yong-ho, who lost his one arm, spoke calmly.

“If we follow this secret path, at least there will be another path leading to the hidden exterior. Let's move quickly!”

“Thank god! You know the way out!!”

There were Jo Yong-ho, Park Moo-hae, and eight jingjo of corruption left.

But two jingjo were gone as they got sealed inside Muhyuk’s onyx blade.

“Keuk…!”

Jo Yong-ho was leading at the front with blood in his mouth.

“Damn it…. Let’s return! If we go back to Korea and get reinforced, there’s still a chance...!”

Jo Yong-ho didn’t expect this to happen until he was leading the bureau to chase Kang Min-ah.

‘If I could handle this task well, I would have been able to enter the presbytery….!’

He wanted to get out of his current job and stand in a position where he could enjoy everything he had without risking himself. But let alone a luxurious future, he had to worry about his life now.

‘I must go back to Korea and form a subjugation squad again! At any cost!’

Jo Yong-ho had no thought of giving up.

However,

Puck!

“Kuk….!”

Jo Yong-ho couldn’t move forward because of the hook that pierced his chest.

“W, what…?!”

Jo Yong-ho was shocked when he saw a hook-like toenail that pierced his chest.

He turned around.

“Khuck….! Pa, Park Moo-hae….! How can you….?!”

He soon realized that Park Moo-hae, who had turned into a monster, stabbed his monster arm in his back. Park Moo-hae giggled as Jo Yong-ho, who still did not understand the situation, looked at him in dumb eyes.

“Dumbass, we’re done now. We’ll all die if we go back to Korea!”

“You.. you... betrayer…!”

Chaaa!!

Park Moo-hae took out his toenail from Jo Yong-ho’s chest.

“Kuk!. Khuk….!”

Jo Yong-ho kneeled at Boom ground.

Seeing Jo Yong-ho, Park Moo-hae murmured.

“I’ll be heading to the Devil Kingdom…. And you will be fed to jingjo.”

“Keuk….! I should’ve killed you beforehand…!”

Park Moo-hae was already calmly accepting the fact that they had failed. So he decided to go for the next best alternative.

Then, jingjo approached Jo Yong-ho, who was crawling to run away.

Park Moo-hae ordered quietly.

“Eat him.”

Chaaa!

When jingjo lifted the bottom of their body, a huge mouth with sharp teeth appeared.

Pwack! Kwajik, kwajik!

That huge mouth started chewing Jo Yong-ho. Jo Yong-ho cried out, throwing up blood.

“You bastard! Even if I die, I will-”

Suddenly,

Slash!

Jo Yong-ho and jingjo became sliced horizontally.

Chaaaaa!

Tuk, Hududuk, Tuk...!

The bodies of Jo Yong-ho and jingjo sliced into four pieces fell to the ground.

“Who, who, who is it!”

Srrrng….!

A shining blade appeared in the darkness. A man who was hiding in the darkness revealed himself. A man, with Tyrifing in his hand, asked quietly.

“Park Moo-hae… Is this the first time meeting you?”

“You are… Lee Jin-seong?”

Instead of answering, Jin-seong stood in front of the dead bodies.

Puk!

Then, Lee Jin-seong pushed his sword inside jingjo that he just killed.

Then,

Ssssssss…!

The dead body of jingjo got assimilated into the magic sword in a flash. Jin-seong asked as he looked at his Tyrfing.

“Hmm, Park Moo-hae… You don’t have the foreknowledge this time?”

“....What?”

“You still don’t know who I am?”

Seeing his smile, Park Moo-hae stepped backward without noticing himself.

“Are you….?”

Then, he remembered the image of a man in his foreknowledge that he could never remember before.

When Park Moo-hae attended a banquet at dawn, a man wielded a golden sword and cut him off to death.

“....It, it was you….?!”

The man's face overlapped with Lee Jin-seong in front of him.

Muhyuk was also similar to the masked man, but Park Moo-hae could instinctively know that the appearance of a man in front of him was exactly the same.

“That’s why Mu, Muhyuk, that guy was kind of clumsy!!”

“You are afraid of me, aren’t you? Just because a few of your men got slaughtered in your foreknowledge, you ran away from that safe place.”

Seeing Jin-seong smiling, Park Moo-hae despaired.

Because he was frightened by the masked Lee Jin-seong, when he saw masked Muhyuk attacking in the same outfit in his foreknowledge, Park Moo-hae immediately abandoned the safe place and ran away.

‘I didn’t even foresee my death at that time!’

Park Moo-hae, who belatedly realized that, despaired. By hastily judging his foreknowledge, he crawled into the jaws of a tiger by himself.

All Park Moo-hae could do was to step back while shouting.

“You, why are you trying to kill me?! What did I do to you!”

“.....”

Jin-seong stood still and spoke to him.

“Kang Min-ah would also ask the same thing to you.”

Srrrng.

Then, he aimed his Tyrfing at Park Moo-hae.

“For the sake of your life, you exposed the flaws of those who have nothing to do with you and made the world point fingers at them.”

But Park Moo-hae refuted.

“.... So what! What did I wrong when all I said were true?!”

Jin-seong shook his head at the words of the dead man who was justifying his action. And he kindly agreed.

“Yes, that is true. I also think you had a good strategy…. But….”

Jin-seong smiled.

“You messed with the wrong person.”

“You… You…!”

Sssssk….!

Suddenly,

The remaining jingjo of corruption blocked Jin-seong’s way.

“Fuck!!”

Leaving jingjo, Park Moo-hae started running away.

‘I, I need to run away!’

But,

Boom!

The entire jingjo of corruption exploded by just one blow from the Tyrfing.

Chulpuck!

The sliced parts of jingjo scattered around.

“Hik….!”

Park Moo-hae turned around in great fear.

Suddenly,

Whoosh!

A golden ray of light penetrated Park Moo-hae’s body.

Slash!

“Aaaaaaa!”

Park Moo-hae got pushed by the ray of light and got stuck to the exit wall.

Bang!

“N, no!”

The golden ray of light was the holy spear Gae Assail.

Park Moo-hae, who could no longer move his body, turned around.

Lee Jin-seong in blue eyes, holding the sword with magi, was approaching him.

Seeing the man approaching him in the black coat, Park Moo-hae murmured.

“He’s a reaper… A reaper…!”

At the sight, Park Moo-hae could foresee his future in an instant.

He could see Lee Jin-seong stabbing that magic sword, absorbing all his power, and then cutting off his neck.

“Aaaaaaa….!”

Lee Jin-seong spoke.

“Did you finally see your end?”

“Why… Why demon king! Why!”

Park Moo-hae despaired after having the foreknowledge belatedly. Hearing his cry, Jin-seong explained.

“Park Moo-hae, the time you stepped into the Forest of Decay, you were destined to die.

Then,

Woosh!

He stabbed the Tyrfing in Park Moo-hae’s chest.

“Kuhuk….!”

Tiring!

[The Tyrfing of the Storm begins absorbing the main powers of its target! The priest’s ‘Lust for Gluttony’ begins to get absorbed by the sword!]

The hungry Tyrfing began to eat up the power of greed inside Park Moo-hae’s body.
