Chapter 149
Episode 149
Yunhee heard the famous name of a teenage superhuman over and over again.
I almost had a scab on my ear.
I know they are such great guys. In fact, it’s even weirder that the guys at the top are nothing special. Even though others call him a genius, he achieved his position after much hard work.
I neither underestimate nor overestimate myself. Even when I was a hematoma, I faced the risk of death several times.
What I still remember is that after the ‘grand compromise’, Cheon Myeong-guk decided that he could not be killed in a direct confrontation and chose to kill him.
I still feel dizzy when I think about that time. They started by mobilizing the military and bombing the area around where I was staying.
Getting hit didn’t mean I would die. However, this was a new clear night tactic, and what Cheon Myeong-guk was aiming for was to deplete my stamina by making me unable to eat or rest.
At the time, I suffered for over a week and thought I might die.
“He’s a terrible guy.”
It’s not for nothing that I don’t hesitate when I see Cheon Myeong-guk in this life.
But since I’m sane, it bothers me less.
No, on the contrary, it is a series of ironies that it is the world’s work that is helping Cheon Myeong-guk.
“Gifts are also dangerous.”
Of course, this is not the only threat. They can threaten me with all kinds of unusual gifts, and they can even kill me when I’m not careful.
This is an unavoidable fact as long as I am a human being made of cloth.
Of course, this is based on the last live hematoma.
“I don’t think I’ll die if I do that now.”
I think my inaction has become much stronger than the hematoma as I have compensated for my weaknesses with various gifts and gained sanity.
Are you going crazy in this state? That would be a disaster for the world as well. We need to stay alert to prevent something like that from happening.
Coming back to the main topic, it can be said that by the time you are in your early teens, you have already surpassed human limitations.
Proving himself by dealing with monsters and superhumans meant that there were no boundaries when it came to exercising inaction.
It meant that if I revealed a gap, I could become a six-parter and die in an instant.
Of course, I have no intention of just accepting it quietly.
Franz also had a good touch, but what about Maxim Geddes?
I wonder whether I will be able to maintain my beliefs until the end.
Usually, people change their minds after being beaten, but what about this guy?
“You won’t complain even if you die?”
Maxim Geddes raised the corners of his mouth.
“It’s exciting to have someone who can say that to me. You can do anything, but there is no superhuman stronger than me. “Don’t worry about that.”
“okay?”
Even those who prided themselves on being strong until now were torn apart in the end.
I guess I’ll have to test the reason for my confidence.
“What about weapons?”
“The body is the greatest weapon.”
“I admit that.”
He was a guy who knew how to use his hands.
Among superhumans, there are almost none who don’t use weapons. My evaluation of Maxim Geddes has gone up a notch.
What happens if the evaluation goes up?
Beat it with more care.
“Come and see.”
Maxim Geddes placed his center of gravity forward and leaned extremely far. The sight was reminiscent of a wild beast rushing toward its prey. The head that reminded me of a lion made me think that way even more. So, am I the prey? This gets interesting.
I stretched out my arms. Let’s try it at the level of an early teenager.
fault!
The moment Maxim Geddes kicked the ground, a cracking sound as if the ground would be torn apart rang out.
The hook swung by Maxim Guedes, who quickly closed the distance, created a terrifying wind and swept me away. An attempt was made to disperse the wind by setting off a mine, but it was no ordinary aftermath.
Somehow, the wind was filled with force. Letting it get swept away by the fierce clawing wind was enough to tear an opponent to pieces.
This must be quite annoying.
Kwasik! Pop! Kwazijic!
Maxim Geddes’ attack continued as the fierce battle continued with windy winds and intertwined mines.
This time, the fist was stretched out straight and the wind was blowing out in a straight line, and the attack continued with a slight change in the fingers to control the flow and distract my nerves.
Is it huge?
The fact that my senses were sharpening on their own, even without my intention, meant that Maxim Geddes’s methods were just that annoying.
First of all, he had extensive combat experience. He was skilled at dealing with people and reacted quickly to situations. As soon as he easily blocked the flashy and sharp attack, he immediately changed his style. By showing off his strength, he destroyed the power of the mine.
Maxim Guedes and I exchanged attacks over thirty times in an instant.
bang!
As I destroyed the mine and dug inside, the shock was felt in my hand. After blocking Maxim Geddes’s fist, I placed a mine on my foot and aimed for his chin. It was an attack that, if it hit, would crush your head.
“Hwaap!”
I thought I was caught off guard, but Maxim Guedes avoided the attack by bending his waist almost at a right angle. I think I instinctively avoided it, but this surprised me too.
But I succeeded in breaking his balance, and my right hand grabbed his shoulder. I thought he would be annoyed by mines that would dig into his skin and tear his muscles to shreds.
“Kaaaaap!”
The mines were scattered with the help of a struggle. This is why physical waves are so annoying. If I had been a smart guy, I would have given up the pace with this response, but he forced me to push forward.
But once I gave up the pace, it meant that I was in control.
Straight lines were monotonous, but monotony meant being fastest. Maxim Geddes, who was on the defensive, desperately tried to shake off my grabbing hand and deflect the mine.
Pot! phut! puck!
If you block once, you hit the next time, and then the next time you hit.
It survived after being hit by mines multiple times.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a guy endure this much.
Is your tenacity like that of a Berserker?
I held on well, but my foot got stuck deep in his solar plexus. This time, I felt out of breath and lost my pace. The mines that dug inside disturbed the interior.
“Ugh!”
Maxim Geddes groans and steps back. This time it was quite a blow.
Don’t let down your guard just because you’ve won. Rather, when you catch the moment when you can defeat your opponent, you must push hard without giving them time to breathe.
Starting from the solar plexus, the mines were evenly distributed over the collarbone, forearms, and knees.
“Kaaaa!”
We overcame everything with spirit, but not like this. I felt my whole body shaking. This is a super teenager? Hmm, honestly, I’m disappointed.
Aside from his enormous body and force, Maxim Geddes seems less tenacious than Berserker and less clever than James.
Did he sense my disappointment? The guy who was struggling to hold on said through clenched teeth.
“…It’s not over yet.”
“Is there any more left?”
Oh, by the way, there was a gift.
Did I say ultimate? It’s so amazing that we still haven’t brought it up.
Without it, I would have been very disappointed. It was quite severe for those in their early teens to be able to raise the bar to be impressed by just seeing the force put into the wind.
“I didn’t want to show this to other people, but…”
Usually, there’s nothing special about saying something like that.
But this time I could tell it wasn’t a bluff. The power boiling inside him was so great that it was incomparable to anything he had shown before.
Is this a boost used in the league? It feels similar?
“You wouldn’t ‘die’ even if you took my full power.”
You talk arrogantly.
“try.”
“I’ll show you. “Krrr!”
At that time, an explosive change occurred. The guy’s muscles began to swell and his size grew by a whopping 1.5 times. The changes didn’t stop there. It has a head like a lion’s mane, but its wild appearance has changed to look like a lion.
Animal Manhwa (獸人法).
Is it his gift? I didn’t know this was possible.
He’s a lionman, not a werewolf. I wonder if they should film Beauty and the Beast. There is no beauty, there is only the beast. Could it be that he is a werelion instead of a werewolf?
“It’s called lion painting (獅子法). “It’s my gift.”
Is that why his nickname was The Lion or The Lion King?
“If I use a gift, my wild nature won’t be able to control me, but if it were you, I would accept it. Don’t die, head breaker.”
The animal was already letting out a low cry as if his instincts had consumed him.
Are instincts also turning into beasts? It was interesting. I have the Unstoppable Vitality and the Immortal Mind, so even if I take his gift, I won’t be swallowed up by my instincts.
I don’t like the fact that the face is in the shape of a lion, but it doesn’t look bad if the benefit is great.
Before that, I’ll have to check how strong I’ve become.
“Come and see.”
* * *
“I almost missed something fun.”
James Reed turned his head when he heard a voice coming from behind him.
Berserker had already arrived and couldn’t take his eyes off the battle between Choi Jun-ho and Maxim Geddes.
“Anyway, it seems like superhumans are gradually moving beyond humans.”
James Reed agreed with Berserker’s low laugh.
I’ve been interacting with Maxime Geddes quite a bit, but this was my first time seeing Gift.
Before using the gift, Maxim Geddes was strong. Although he was pushed by Choi Jun-ho, he showed his natural strength.
Still, I thought it was worth a try. Because I thought that if I worked a little harder, I could reach the level of a super teenager.
but.
The inaction of Maxim Geddes, who demonstrated his gift, was on a different level.
This figure was like an animal.
A body comparable to that of a monster, human reason, and beastly instinct.
They became a trinity and were manifesting inaction that transcended limitations.
“Is there still a difference?”
“…a person in his early teens.”
James Reed nodded in agreement to Berserker’s muttering.
The inaction shown by Maxim Geddes seemed to show why they were classified separately among superhumans and called ten superhumans.
however.
“This is absurd.”
Although he was clearly displaying inaction that was far beyond his limits, Choi Jun-ho was accepting it without a care in the world.
So much so that James Reed, who was watching, felt absurd.
“One thing is clear about this.”
What do you want to say?
As James Reed looked, Berserker spoke with a serious expression.
“Any guy is equal in front of that guy.”
“…I admit it.”
James Reed expressed his sympathy as he watched Maxim Guedes increasingly being put on the defensive.
* * *
As a result, Maxim Geddes was released from his lion and fell down in front of me.
He seems like a tough guy.
He told me to survive, but I took those words back to him.
“….”
But the process of defeating it was not easy. The guy who became a lion was literally a beast.
This is not a superhuman, but closer to a monster?
The heart of a monster has value. This guy’s heart, well, I guess it can bring about abilities.
Did you say it was lion painting? It is no exaggeration to say that it is the strongest gift I have ever seen.
“Headbreaker.”
You broke your limbs, pulverized several bones, and drilled several holes in your chest, but you can still talk?
The recovery also feels close to super regeneration.
This gift seemed to be worthy of being called the ultimate.
I have to get my hands on it.
He looked at me and said.
“You could do a great job for the world. “Take our hands.”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
You don’t change your beliefs after being put in such disgrace?
I recognize your courage, but it looks like you haven’t suffered much yet.
“Why are you rejecting my offer?”
“There is no difference between you guys and the league. “Don’t package the topic of pursuing your own interests with something grandiose.”
“No, we are different.”
“done.”
I don’t believe in that grand cause. The direction I pursue is to live a satisfied life in one’s own position.
Because he went crazy, he assumed evil intentions and dyed the world with blood. I have to follow the same path to deal with a league that is spreading like cancer cells all over the world. Do I have a reason to do that?
All you have to do is just erase it every time you see it.
The league is no longer in my sight as it has been completely removed from Korea and Japan.
Despite my firm refusal, Maxim Geddes laughed.
“Then I guess I have no choice but to prove my sincerity.”
“Is there a way to prove it?”
“Look at my gift.”
“what?”
“I know you can look at other people’s gifts. Look at my gift with that ability. “If you confirm my sincerity, your thoughts may change.”
“….”
I know about this guy’s blood feeding.
“That’s how I prove it.”
“He doesn’t hesitate to play with his tongue.”
Before he could reply, I reached for his heart, cut open his chest, and grabbed his heart. If you apply more force like this, the guy will be dead.
No matter how strong a person is, their obsession with life is different.
“….”
But he was looking at me with calm eyes.
How on earth are you going to prove your sincerity? Instead, I’m starting to feel worse.
“Oops!”
Ah, my hand felt a little strong. I withdrew my hand as I watched Maxim Geddes cough up blood. The cracked chest wound heals quickly. The recovery is also completely demonic.
I licked the blood from my hands. The lion painting information that was his gift began to be read.
Expectations were high for the gift, which was called Ultimate.
Reflexes close to those of an animal, transcendental strength, and even recovery comparable to super regeneration.
These overwhelming abilities are in one gift?
If you look at it that way, even my blood intake can accept gifts without limit.
Although as their numbers increase, they run wild and a monster called a hematoma follows them.
From that perspective, it was no wonder that lionization came with a penalty. Still, considering his overwhelming ability, I can accept at least one penalty.
No, I thought there was.
“….”
But the moment I saw the penalty, I stopped. The penalty was bigger than I thought.
[Loss of male function]
It was the price of obtaining the lionization gift.
So, Maxim Geddes was lionized and was willing to give up his life as a man to eliminate the League.
Is this possible? No really?
I looked at Maxim Guedes.
The lion’s mane-like hairstyle was comical, but it matched the guy’s wild charm.
With his skills as a teenage superhuman combined with his background as a secret force, he will be able to change partners if he wants to.
But giving it up?
Even people with wealth and fame fail to manage themselves?
The difference between not using it and not being able to use it is enormous.
Is there any sincerity more certain than this?
As soon as I read the information, I stopped copying the gift.
No matter how much I want it, this is not it.
[It doesn’t matter, right? You’re not using it anyway.]
Yongyong, who was quietly watching, says something. You will have to pay for your nonsense later.
I turned to Maxime Geddes.
Why do those calm eyes suddenly feel sad? What on earth is this league that they are sacrificing everything to get rid of it?
Maxim Guedes says he must have noticed my change.
“Do you feel my sincerity now?”
“I can’t help but feel it.”
James Reed and Berserker look puzzled at my reaction.
I won’t tell you. This is a secret you will take with you to the grave.
Maxim Geddes smiles at my gaze.
I felt his sincerity so desperately that I couldn’t turn away.
“…I will listen to you when you tell me to get up.”
