I Am the Only Non-Returner - Chapter 162



162 – Abandoning myself for -.

“I had some expectations because I could sense Rosherdin’s energy, but I was disappointed. Is it only at this level? hahahahaha – This isn’t even a joke. Don’t you?”

His body, which was almost gray, turned blue and his size gradually increased.

“There is no reason to wait any longer. I will receive at least a small reward for my waiting while listening to your screams of despair.”

“······.”

It was true that, looking at the reactions of Tankrankuna Jin and others, I thought this might be enough. However, I had no choice but to immediately admit that my thoughts were wrong as I felt an unprecedented sense of intimidation coming from the monster’s body.

But I had no choice but to do it. Otherwise, the efforts of those who work hard behind the scenes will be for nothing.

Hiss-!!

I couldn’t take the risk of risking everything on the first attack.

‘Lightly.’

Paang!!

He dodged my punch by lightly tilting his head.

Although it was a simple attack, it was a straight attack that went in with the simplest movement path, and it was dodged so clearly that it felt like it had been dodged in advance.

“Is it my car?”

Churleup-

The guy flicked his tongue once, and then felt a strong blow to the back of his head.

Bwak-!

“Ugh!!”

What on earth happened to me?

Cold sweat ran down my back from the attack that I couldn’t even understand. If it weren’t for the fusion with Nila, my body would have been torn in two after being attacked squarely.

And soon countless tentacles stretched out from its body, penetrated the surrounding space, and disappeared.

Hiss!!

Push!

Tentacles that disappeared into space are constantly poking into the space I am in. Each sharply forged thorn is a famous sword itself.

‘Giving distance would be disadvantageous.’

I closed the space and approached the guy, but he didn’t even really open the distance.

Papapapak!!

‘Can’t I just get one hit?’

I made hundreds and thousands of attacks, but my attacks could not even reach the guy’s body and only cut through the air.

Haamㅡ

The guy who yawned sometimes.

Hot!

He bit off my ear and spit it out on the floor.

“You’re no fun. Just die. Just like everything else out there.”

“Haa…Haa…f*ck…”

If we don’t stop this guy, the people behind us will eventually die as well.

It is clear that the defending troops behind us will have a hard time, but now is not the time to worry about that. The difference in power between him and me was so clear right now.

So I tried to do something I had never done before.

‘If I could accept one more person…’

Maintaining a body fused with Nilla requires tremendous concentration and mental strength, but the reckless idea of adding another being to it is a reckless idea.

But something had to be done. The being in front of me is a monster of monsters who was born when the world was created and has lived for eons.

No, that was already a god.

And it would be absurd to think that I, who had just come out of entertainment, could easily defeat such a being.

Then who should we bring in for fusion?

Numerous beings passed through my mind.

The Goddess, the Great Demon Ser, Kiphenical, Tankranku, the Hind brothers, and many other seemingly powerful deities. But if I had to choose just one person, it would be it.

Jin

When I thought of him, my consciousness moved along the dimensional passage, and I saw Jin coming out of the space I had met earlier and helping to protect the shelter.

‘You’ve used up quite a bit of energy. I said it indifferently, but there’s no way I didn’t pay any price to kill the monster called Bella.’

I cautiously approached Jin and attempted to make contact. Surprisingly, right before I tried to make contact, he turned his head and recognized me.

(Hmm?! What are you? Did you even have this ability?)

He recognized me and, for a split second, accelerated his thinking and organized his thoughts. In an instant, he understood my abilities and immediately nodded.

(I already wanted to beat that guy up, but thank you, kid. For coming to visit me during this time.)

I accepted his slightly exhausted mental body, and a fierce tug-of-war began between him and me. If you think back to when you first became one with Nila, the being with a stronger ego will take the lead.

However, unlike the brazen Nilla, he did not seem to be pushing me away or trying to swallow me up.

A much more stable and calm force.

A gentle wave, like a lake at dawn, came out and embraced Nila.

And soon, a change occurred in my body that was as dramatic as heaven and earth.

Chararalalalak ㅡ

Black scales, which were not visible unless I was conscious of them, began to grow wildly and cover my body.

Jin’s consciousness was already fading, but I could feel that he was very considerate of me. It may have been because Jin was very tired, but he seemed to already have a clear idea of who should lead this ability.

To prevent me from feeling confused as I was in a state of fusion with Nilla right before I lost consciousness, he filled in the parts that were lacking, removed the areas that were excessive, and even returned the unnoticed imbalance to its original place.

I could feel Jin’s consciousness faintly smiling at me.

And.

Huuu…

A deep breath taken all at once.

Thousands of tentacles filled with sharp magical energy are generated towards me.

The watchman’s eyes look at me with interest for the first time after seeing my change.

But the light in those eyes disappeared in an instant, and only the mockery that it was already too late was filled.

Keee -!!

Countless attacks were concentrated on one point, and even the sound of the flow of magical energy rang out sharper than ever.

“······?”

As a completely unexpected sight unfolded where he had been looking with anticipation, the watchman could not help but tilt his head.

“···Why?”

I couldn’t help but wonder. He saw Eun-gyeon sighing as he staggered to where he had been standing, and it was actually himself who was standing in the space he was looking at.

The locations are reversed.

In that split-second moment of confusion as to what had happened, a vast amount of vicious magic thorns that he had pierced through the body of the watchman exploded in an instant.

Kkwagwagwagwagwang-!!

When the power enough to blow away a small planet without a trace condensed and exploded, even the sentinel had no choice but to rely on his shield to defend himself and flew for a while, rolling ungainly on the ground.

Let’s do it!

The watchman’s face, which managed to stand up with balance, was still faintly smudged like smudged calligraphy, but it was clear that he was greatly embarrassed.

“······ What did you do? Why can’t I figure it out!!!”

Blah blah blah!!

Cracks began to appear in the beautiful garden that the watchman had created. The luxurious teacup broke and the unidentified liquid inside soared into the sky, and before we knew it, the green lawn turned gray and was transformed into a space of nothingness.

“There are three people fused together, so there’s no way it’ll be easy to figure it out, right?”

The dog said this as he walked forward clearly, even though he was staggering.

It was a strange thing. My body was extremely heavy, and even to my knowledge, my bodily functions were not normal. No, it was normal for all blood vessels and muscles to be destroyed and unable to move.

“hahahaha… Your body is a mess. Even though you tried hard, Jin, it’s only like this. It’s embarrassing.”

Eungyeon decided that this state was not enough and boldly blew her consciousness away. All she had left was the instinct needed to kill the monster in front of me.

‘Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!!’

Ssssseu ㅡ

The explosion caused an explosion and the full armor that had been removed for a moment quickly began to cover Eun-gyeon’s body. The ink-colored armor that rose from the tips of her fingers and feet even covered her face, completely cutting off her body from the world. And soon, the matte full-body armor turned black and had a very smooth surface.

An aura that was too ferocious to be armor worn on a human surfaced.

Completely fused, the only instinct imprinted in the body of a being named Gyeon is unleashed without hesitation.

[Destruction]

Blah blah blah-

When the dog opened its mouth, its armor was torn as wide as its mouth, exposing its sharp teeth. It was reminiscent of a dragon’s open snout, and its long tongue flicked for a moment, with sticky saliva flowing down.

Krrr

The figure could no longer be called human, but was a starving beast itself.

Cheoeok-

The monster, which had taken a quadrupedal stance with its arms on the ground, lunged at the sentinel who had regained his composure, kicking the ground with all four feet.

“Profit!! You scum-“

Kwasik!!

My own work.

The watchman’s left shoulder was damaged by a large bite, and the monster chewed on the watchman’s shoulder, which had been bitten several times, before swallowing it in one gulp.

Krrr-

“Huh… Hugger… Ugh…”

The watchman was speechless. This is because there was no visible movement of the monster approaching with its long tongue sticking out. Moreover, the shoulder that was torn off by the bite did not even recover.

‘Rat, what are their abilities?’

Eun-gyeon’s insight, having reached [Omniscience], Also saw through the essence of the shield-piercing weapon shown by the red tuxedo ‘Kiba’, and he was using that ability instinctively without even thinking about it.

Kududeudeudeudeukㅡ

“This can’t be happening!! This is ridiculous!! This is the power I have accumulated over the many years of my life… Such a monster!!”

The watchman began to inflate his body. His materialized body grew endlessly, becoming so large that Eun-gyeon, who had become a monster, could not be seen even if he raised his head high into the sky.

It’s almost as if the watchman has become the sky itself.

“Grrr…”

Whoa!

And then hundreds of thousands of the sentinel’s tentacles, which had become as large as a huge mountain, began to shoot out towards Eun-gyeon.

Pew pew pew pew pew!!

The watchman was confident. That monster will never be able to avoid this attack, which completely covers the space by eliminating the blind spot itself.

And his prediction was accurate. Eun-gyeon tried to avoid it, but in the end, he ended up being beaten at some point by the endless barrage of tentacles.

Pupupupupupup!!

Similar to the shield-ignoring weapon used by the red seeker ‘Kiba’, the sentinel’s attack went beyond the massive silver dog shield and attacked the main body itself.

After being attacked, Eun-gyeon’s head exploded and her arms and legs were twisted around, and in the end, only a thick lump of blood remained.

Kugugugugugungㅡ

As the watchman, who had grown so large, burst out laughing in satisfaction, a huge vibration shook the air.

And the Watchman wondered what to do with his pitiful men who were still fighting against Kiphenical’s defense forces.

[Even after absorbing so many planets’ races, such pathetic behavior. I guess I need to give it a little more power.]

The sentinel, who was slowly moving towards the battlefield with that thought in mind, felt something sitting on his shoulder and his movements stopped as if he had become ice.

A being who is not simply sitting, but is quietly looking at himself, assimilated into his materialized body.

And then I realized.

Defeat

He didn’t know how, but he found himself defeated by this small being.

[······]

I felt that the leadership of everything that made up me was slowly being handed over to an alien being.

I was disappointed, but at the same time, I was satisfied. He didn’t even understand why he felt this way.

So, I went back to the first timeline.

At some point so long ago that he can’t even remember the Watchman, he started thinking for himself. No one could figure out how a sentinel who was simply tasked with guarding could do that.
