Chapter 1629

It was impossible to track Raphael. A golden cloud from the sky blocked the approach of Hayate and the apostles. It was an att.i.tude that stated those who werent allowed should withdraw.

Braham snorted.

Presumptuous and arrogant.

Brahams ridicule wasnt to release emotions. It was a rational sentiment based on obvious grounds.

HeavenAsgard had reigned because it was the only world of the G.o.ds. It was naturally wors.h.i.+ped and acc.u.mulated divinity. Now it wasnt the only sanctuary. It was the aftermath of Grid unveiling the Hwan Kingdom and the establishment of the Overgeared World on the surface.

The Overgeared Worldfrom the moment it was named, the mysterious sanctuary was coloring the surface with new divinity. It was easy to sense, unlike the divinity of Asgard that was far away. It was clearly seen and felt. It was an energy that would benefit all beings on the surface.

People would gradually move away from Asgard. Now the symbol of Asgard, a mere cloud, was acting arrogant? It was unsightly. It was like a beggar begging to make a living swaggering around.

Braham shrugged and looked back. He saw a blond-haired man. The man who arrived at the scene before him. It was impressive that he had a dignity comparable to Braham, who inherited a n.o.ble lineage.

Braham knew who he was. Dragon Slayer.

The only absolute on the surface and the protector who defended humanity for many years. Above all, he had achieved killing a dragon. It meant that Brahams wish, the ultimate pursuit of Braham, had been accomplished a long time ago.

It is an honor... to meet. Braham greeted him. It was at the level where Braham didnt even bow his head, let alone his waist, but his choice of words was shocking.

An... honor? Piaro had a pleased expression on his face while Mercedes was astonished. It was because she had never seen Braham show such a humble att.i.tude. Of course, the shock was only brief. Mercedes also recognized Hayates ident.i.ty. She judged that his level was far away from her. Even with this type of power, he carried it on his back without using it to reign.

A person who couldve ruled the world the moment he wanted, but he had been silently defending the world without ever appearing in history. She couldnt help admiring it.

Mercedes and Piaro bowed to also show their respects and Hayate looked troubled.

People misunderstand me as a hero. Im just a coward. Grid... I have only been living in secret, unlike you who have protected the world with the Overgeared G.o.d. Please correct your att.i.tude.

Grid deserves to be liked... Braham muttered with a frown. A feeling of being defeated by inferiority flashed across his rapidly darkening face.

Your humility is excessive, Mercedes felt better at Brahams reaction and said with a smile.

Some time ago, humanity had experienced the greatness of dragons. They saw that a dragons meaningless exhale and a single flap of its wings destroyed a huge city built by humanity in an instant. It was Hayate who had been keeping such monsters in check. Without him, humanity wouldve experienced the disaster caused by dragons several times and despaired.

In the midst of the unexpectedly harmonious atmosphere. Something happened in the golden cloud that was moving away. It created a sudden lightning bolt that bombarded Hayate and the apostles. It contained a great deal of power. The ground was devastated in an instant.

That guy.

Braham covered himself with a red-purple s.h.i.+eld and stared up at the sky. A presence armed with translucent armor could be seen through the scattered clouds. It was a G.o.d. The hierarchy seemed very high. The gooseb.u.mps that appeared on Brahams skin and the puncture in the s.h.i.+eld proved it.

Dominion. Ziks voice was heard. One of the decisive factors that caused Raphael to retreat. He stood in the distance and looked at the strongest man in this world. Now he couldnt sit back and watch and entered the scene.

It was the beginning of the creation of the concepts of consecutive wins, being undefeated in 100 battles, etc. Armed with impenetrable armor and a spear that can pierce anything.

It is an unreasonable existence.

Yes.

Dominion was the G.o.d of war. Additionally, Asgard had never been defeated in any war so far. Dominion was the reason why the rebellion of the seven malignant saints failed in vain.

......

Hayate couldnt take his eyes off Zik. As the strongest person in this world, he felt a certain special appreciation for the strongest person in the previous world. It wasnt something fateful. He simply judged and marveled at the armed might.

He is indeed one of the seven good people.

The seven good people, in other words, the seven malignant saints, were the history of the previous world. It was originally impossible for them to be spread to the present world. Yet it was recorded and spread throughout the ages. It was the arrangement of the daoist immortal, Bentao. As a result, the people of this time knew about the seven malignant saints and it was the same with Hayate.

Thanks to this, the conversation proceeded quickly. Hayate silently listened to Ziks words. It was an att.i.tude toward an elder.

There is no way such a great existence would come for a light reason. Im nervous about Reinhardt. Zik discussed returning.

Braham didnt like it. The enemy was right above them. He was a threat and it was right to strike right here. What if they were tracked when returning to Reinhardt? It was nothing more than expanding the battlefield. So why were they talking about returning?

Braham wanted Zik to provide a convincing rationale, but he couldnt ask for it directly. It was a big burden just dealing with Zik, but now even Hayate seemed sympathetic to Zik. Therefore, he couldnt open his mouth at all.

I... how did I become like this...?

Originally, Braham treated everyone equally. He belittled everyone except himself and perceived himself as the center of the world. That changed with Grid. He watched Grid from the side and realized the greatness of a hero. He regretted and reflected on himself in the past for not taking good care of his disciples. He learned to respect them.

Therefore, he couldnt resist these two heroes and followed them silently. He used the return scroll while trying to ignore Raphael, who was laughing behind Dominions back. Then he saw it the moment he arrived in Reinhardt. The sky over Reinhardt was glowing with a golden color. It was due to the heavenly clouds that gathered without leaving even a small gap.

A huge presence was seen at the head of the clouds. An opaque armor was wrapped around his entire body and a spear was held with both hands. Dominion, the G.o.d of war, was here as well.

What is this?

There couldnt be two Dominions. It meant that the Dominion they saw a while ago was either a clone or an illusion, which was unbelievable. To say that was a fake... it was hard to fathom.

While wrapping the runes around himself and accelerating, Zik explained to the bewildered Braham, Dominion is on every battlefield.

The voice faded away in an instant. Braham used Teleport and caught up with ZIk.

Zik explained, In other words, this is already a battlefield.

Zik knew the habits of the G.o.d. They enjoyed warnings and their warnings had always caused natural disasters.

-Overgeared G.o.d Grid.

Dominion opened his mouth and thunderbolts struck. Explosions occurred all over the ground and flames soared. It was due to the thunderbolts pouring down. There were many people present. It was a crowd that gathered to celebrate the birth of the Overgeared World.

Um.

Braham was about to deploy a wide-area s.h.i.+eld when he stopped chanting the spell. Piaro, who seemed invisible, was plowing the ground before he knew it. His plow made a wall by pulling out the rocks buried deep underground. It was like looking at a small mountain range. Sariel even used the magic power of light. There were few casualties thanks to this, but the apostles were in a hurry.

Dominion on the cloud was pointing a spear at Grid, who was standing alone in front of the temple. The blue divinity that was spreading was a threat. It was much darker and greater in range than Grids divinity. It was clear that the spear he threw would be faster than lightning.

-You will sooner or later pay for the sin of building a false world and destroying the order of the world with your vain greed.

Dominions rant spread throughout Reinhardt. All humans heard his heavy and ferocious voice that pierced through the thunder. Some people recalled the order of a general while others recalled the roar of a wild beast. They instinctively stiffened and their complexions turned white.

Grids expression also stiffened.

This fox-like b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

The G.o.d of war who came out of nowhere was huge. It wasnt an optical illusion created through a combination of strong divine power and ferocious momentum. It was actually a ma.s.sive body with a majestic air to him. His features were noticeable even when he was at a very high alt.i.tude, but what he was doing was delicate and didnt match his size. He was talking while maintaining a distance where he didnt reach the Overgeared World.

This was normal. Unless they were an idiot, there was no one who would step into other peoples territory to fight. Still, he couldnt help feeling that this size was a waste.

Im glad there are the apostles.

Grid didnt move hastily. Dominion was a chief G.o.d. He was even one of Rebeccas two sons. Besides, he was cautious. The evidence was that he had never appeared before and now appeared for the first time. There was no way he was weaker than Zeratul or Gabriel. Considering his prudence, he mustve descended after acc.u.mulating a stronger force than the two of them.

The people will be guarded by the apostles.

At the temples entrance...

Grid stood on the boundary between the Overgeared World and the surface and was ready to draw his sword at any time. He thought he would take advantage of the opportunity when Dominion was targeting people and the apostles blocked him.

He didnt really question why Dominion had come now. Asgard was an obvious enemy. There was nothing strange about Rebecca invading the surface right now. He would just fight as always.

......?

Grid was quietly focusing when he became startled. Dominions divine power was gradually getting stronger. The more it was overlaid over the spear in his hand, the more there seemed to be no limit to the divinity that was building.

Grid realized it. Dominion had no intention of hurting people. His target was Grid from the beginning.

Does he intend to hurt me and lower my status?

If Grid was pierced by the spear despite being in the Overgeared World, he was bound to lose his status, even if he didnt die. It was because it seemed to be proving the uselessness of the Overgeared World in front of a large number of people.

At the same time, Dominion threw the spear. It was precisely toward Grid. A spear larger than the spear of magic machine Raiders was shot at Grid, dividing the sky into two.

Grid reacted immediately. He didnt hesitate to use Revolve. Two swords interlocked with the huge spear tilted at an angle. Eventually, they would draw an arc and twist the trajectory of the spear. They had to do so. However

[The counterattack has failed.]

The power in the spear was unstoppable. Revolve was naturally canceled and Grids chest was pierced by the spear. Grids upper body exploded. Flesh and blood were sprinkled in all directions. Dominions spear literally flew to the temple of the Overgeared G.o.d and was embedded in it. It pierced Grids body and used the remaining power to cause the temple to collapse.

It was pandemonium. The people who had been staring blankly at the terrible sight came to their senses one step later and screamed. Then

...Cough.

Grid lost his status.

......

...

......?

Grid suddenly came to his senses. The pain that made his head blank disappeared like it was a lie. The collapsed temple behind him was still intact. There was no wound on his chest. Dominion in the sky was just throwing the spear.

What was that just now? Deja vu?

The confused and relieved Grid hesitated.

A spear full of huge power at first glance. Was it really right to block that with Revolve? In the first place, Grids enemies had always evolved. It was natural as long as this world was a game. He didnt dare compare the rabbit he hunted at level 1 to the enemies he was fighting now at level 719.

There is no guarantee that Revolve will work forever.

The Overgeared G.o.d's Sword Dance wasnt invincible. The level of the enemies was too high for Revolve to always have the upper hand. Could the deja vu he experienced a while ago be created by his subconscious mind?

Grid thought about it and quickly made a decision. He used the Serve sword dance. It was a dance move where he staggered like he was going to collapse. He expressed his determination to die to protect someone.

The giant spear that reached the tip of his nose stopped. It was weighed down by Grids power. It was a side effect of containing divine power. This dragged it down. The large spear, which was connected to Dominion through divine power, was communicating with Dominion. It had feelings.

Therefore, under the influence of Serve, it stiffened and stopped. It was only 0.2 seconds. This was enough. An object worked as a target as long as the conditions were met.

Grid learned something new and opened the Sanctuary of Metal. He dominated the still spear and fired it at Dominion.

A divine warningdue to its absolute intention, it couldnt be avoided or prevented, but it could be reversed.

Dominion and Zik understood what this meant and their eyes widened.
