Overgeared

Chapter 1823

A sudden change in the world—it referred to the change in the world caused by the liberation of Fire Dragon Trauka’s power.

Titan had been one of the busiest cities since this change occured. It might be purely coincidental, but many of the areas judged to be ‘dangerous’ occurred around Titan. Among them, the Mirror Mountains and the Forest of Mist were the most difficult.

They were areas where fantasy-like creatures that existed only in dimensional gaps appeared. Beings beyond reason threatened people with strange abilities.

The legendary Lightning Warrior Kyle—Titan’s strongest spear and shield was patrolling the Mirror Mountains as usual.

The mountain peaks that distorted and reflected light like mirrors and showed things that couldn’t exist in reality—Kyle moved among these ominous things that easily deceived and led humans to danger and was intact.

His lightning burned all enemies that approached. His legendary skills combined with the body of a transcendent were strong. It was because all the processes and results he gained were judged to be achievements worthy of being recorded in legend and they had a strengthening effect.

“Thank you! The supply route has been secured thanks to Kyle disposing of all the illusionary bodies!”

“...You are saying the same thing as yesterday,” Kyle responded with displeasure to the saluting knights.

Just like the demonic creatures in the hunting grounds, the illusionary bodies would reappear at regular intervals. The objects reflected by the ice mirrors of the ice caps of the mountain points were soon reborn as illusionary bodies. It was meaningless to kill them.

Kyle was going to be given the same task again and again tomorrow and the next day. He had enough of it. A fundamental solution was needed. However, they had long concluded that it was impossible to physically destroy the ice mirrors of the mountain peaks.

“Fire Dragon... that damn creature.”

The dragons—Kyle’s attitude of cursing at the Old Dragon was unstoppable. He showed a clear disregard for the warnings of scholars, who claimed that a dragon’s hearing could cover the entire continent. There were only two existences in the world that he feared—Grid and Braham.

Except for those two, he wasn’t scared of anyone, including dragons.

“...Is that an illusionary body?”

“Kuaaack!”

Kyle cocked his head when he suddenly heard the screams of soldiers.

A path leading to the Forest of Mist—an ominous being, like the mirrors of the mountain peak, were approaching and slaughtering the soldiers.

The 1st ranked Great Demon, Baal. A great evil that shouldn’t be on the surface. In Kyle’s eyes, this guy was simply ‘color.’ He was bright red, but far from a flame. Kyle wondered if negative concepts such as blood, killing intention, hatred, and anger could be painted in color.

‘It is cute compared to the demons of the surface.’

Kyle compared Baal’s appearance to Grid and Braham and snorted. Beads made by condensing lightning floated around him. The lightning orbs intercepted all of the attacks of the approaching Baal’s. The red hands, feet, and tail were shaking from the electric shock.

“Ugh. Did you copy Grid’s God Hands?” Baal asked, forcing his facial muscles twitching from the electric shock to move. His mouth that opened slowly was big and black.

“Che.” Kyle read some ominous omens from it. Then the bright beads of lightning exploded in unison.

At the same time, rays of magic shot from Baal’s mouth.

—!

Sound disappeared for a moment from the white-tinged world. The light coming from Baal was also buried as he turned to ash. The first sound heard as the world soon returned to normal was the sound of blood dripping from Kyle’s pierced chest.

Soon, a large amount of blood poured out. Kyle stopped the bleeding by closing his wound with electricity and looked around. It was to check the condition of the knights swept away by the explosion. Unfortunately, there were quite a few casualties.

‘It was unavoidable.’

If he had hesitated for even one second, then everyone except for himself would’ve perished.
