chapter 2
2. Do you intend to become my disciple?
Deng Gang.
The devil’s head, which looked powerful at first glance, fell to the floor.
The devil himself didn’t seem to have figured out his situation yet.
rolling around.
His head rolled and landed in front of me.
I stomped on it with my foot and stopped it.
Even as his head was spinning, he could see his eyes widening.
His mouth seemed to open, but no sound came out.
Of course, that didn’t last too long.
No matter how much he was called a demon, he could not survive without a head.
Eventually, the guy’s eyes soon gave out and lost focus.
I wondered if blood was gushing out of the torso of the demon who had lost its head.
coo……
went backwards
He fell and the ground trembled.
And I was standing still
‘Gee, it’s really done…’
It happened in an instant in a half-excited state.
Now, the excitement seems to have subsided little by little.
As my rapid heartbeat gradually calmed down, I began to look at the situation a little more calmly.
A cross-section of the demon’s head was seen.
It was extremely neat.
Even if I didn’t know what it was, I felt that way.
I was certain even without anyone explaining.
That this is space cutting.
I felt it at first glance, but now I have to admit it.
That I was entangled in the world of Pao God.
Yes…… Admit it.
It was short in terms of time, but it was a difficult process in my own way.
It’s not like this is common.
But after acknowledging it, my heart felt at ease.
‘I thought it was simply a scribbled explanation.’
By the way, the passives of the other characters were very concise.
[Passive: Steel Stamina – Increases the amount of HP recovered.]

Just this much?
However, since the passives were lined up like a sentence, I thought it was just a patch.
I chewed the passive again.
[Passive: Those who hate demons – Those who hate demons will repulse even the smell of evil tribes and will slaughter them without leaving.
Because of that hatred, you will buy the joy of the gods, and in return, you will have the authority of countless gods in your hands!]
‘No, by the way. I can roughly understand the preceding words… what the hell do those last words mean?’
I frowned.
Especially the last sentence.
Because of that.
‘The expression of God’s power, it means a unique skill…’
A nonsensical scenario passed through my mind.
‘no way?……’
Now I also had a unique skill.
The outstanding guy called Space Slasher.
I tried clearing the ending, but such a powerful unique skill was rare.
But I thought that maybe this passive might be a really great thing rather than cutting space.
The attractive factor that penetrated Pao God was this unique skill system.
A unique skill that can only have one.
Unlike regular magic, you can’t learn more than one thing.
I couldn’t change it if I didn’t like it.
Instead, there were many powerful or unusual abilities.
However, the last sentence of that passive I had was enough to completely overturn my common sense.
The countless powers of the gods…
Are you saying you can have multiple unique skills?
‘It’s still just my guess, but…’
I had to find another power to confirm the authenticity of that phrase.
But, of course, authority wasn’t rolling around on the street.
Isn’t it literally power?
The power of a god that can never be compared to the power of a finite human being.
However, I had knowledge that others did not have.
Knowledge as a player, knowing where and how other unique skills are found.
‘I’ll have to try.’
There were so many different ways to acquire unique skills.
Some started by gaining abilities in an abandoned temple somewhere.
In some cases, it was an ability passed down from generation to generation.
There were even characters who gained abilities after being struck by lightning.
One of the things you can try right now is…
‘Thunderbolt is impossible.’
The most certain thing…
‘Because I said this is the way to Fort Juan…’
That moment when I thought of a map in my head for a moment.
An old man’s voice was heard.
“Unbelievable……”
An old man who had escaped from the overturned carriage was standing behind him.
I just turned my head slightly and met his eyes.
‘okay. There was that human, indeed.’
That tattoo on the back of your hand.
I saw the pattern and recognized him right away.
I looked at him and muttered to myself.
‘The traitor who turned his back on the sky… Gauriel.’
I feel the rage boiling up.
* * *
“Unbelievable……”
For an instant, Gauriel forgot to even breathe and stopped.
He also had a knack for swords.
No, the lack of expression was too great.
Although not now, he was once called the heavenly judge and demonic executioner who rips demons apart.
Heaven’s sword, God’s wrath.
All those words were adjectives pointing to Gauriel.
However.
‘Even I couldn’t figure out what happened to that blow…!’
I couldn’t believe it.
To be honest, the attack of that mysterious young man didn’t even seem to be the target of vigilance.
Too slow, too obvious.
Realizing that, the demon corps commander, Callim, was also laughing at him.
However, the result made even Gauriel’s spine chill.
‘What a cross-section…!’
cut out?
no.
It would be rather appropriate to say that it was like that from the beginning.
is it swordsmanship?
Or a powerful person?
But how on earth do you have to have great ability to cut the head of a corps commander level devil with a single knife?
Even with that kind of toy-like knife.
‘This…… is more than I thought…’
It was much more than I thought…… It might have been entangled with an absurd monster.
It was the same with the appearance he showed on the carriage a moment ago.
Didn’t he recognize the pattern engraved on the back of his hand?
‘okay. There’s no way this could ever be seen by normal humans.’
But the young man’s gaze was clear.
It was clearly watching.
At first, I spoke only out of curiosity.
The sudden question of where this place is is funny.
It was just a brief entertainment.
But now I couldn’t think of anything like that.
‘Are you an angel? no. I don’t feel the energy of angels at all. But I don’t think he’s a devil… He looks like a normal human after all.’
He is the man who slashed the head of the demon corps leader, Kalim, with a single sword.
Is such a person a normal human being?
Even thinking about it, the front and back didn’t match too much.
The power that Kalarim showed earlier was beyond even Gauriel’s expectations.
‘To the point where I was contemplating whether I should bring out the hidden means…’
On the other hand, the young man who heard the drooling from his surprise turned his head this way.
But wasn’t there a lot of anger in his eyes?
It could have come from fighting the devil.
However, even taking that into account, the young man’s momentum was as intense as a raging wave.
Inevitably, Gauriel also prepared to pull out the sword from his waist at any time.
‘no way. Are you trying to kill me and desert?’
Soldiers usually deployed to Fort Juan had a very strong sense of repulsion against high-ranking knights.
to the point of hostility.
The joke about a soldier’s main enemy being an officer was no longer a joke.
I already knew what the soldiers were saying.
The words of the high-ranking knights that they were deployed to Fort Juan and that they, the lowest ranks, would die.
So there were cases where they often killed officers and deserted when they didn’t have eyes for people.
Those who were deployed as the suicide squad at Fort Juan were already at the end of their lives.
So Gauriel, who was hiding the identity of an angel and was in the form of a high-ranking knight, had no choice but to prepare.
But if you fight with the author now…
‘I can’t declare victory lightly.’
I was surprised by the decision I made myself.
For thousands of years, I was confident of defeating any demon I faced.
At this moment today, it felt like I was facing a wall for the first time in my life.
‘Maybe it’s a wall that will crush me.’
I couldn’t back down either.
There was still work to be done.
Can’t stop here…
Gauriel, who had been repeating that far, changed his mind a little.
‘Should I fight? I’m not even a knight of Fort Juan.’
The other side also showed how to slaughter demons mercilessly.
He hates the devil so much and cuts it down, so why can’t he become an ally?
between those who have the same enemies.
Besides that skill.
It was full of charm and full of charm.
‘okay. Is it necessary to have someone with such abilities as a soldier? If I raise…’
Also, I really wanted to hear how he saw the pattern on the back of his hand.
In many ways, it was a sad relationship to lose like this.
‘The god I betrayed… is it mercy?…’
* * *
“Awesome.”
Gauriel’s words brought me to my senses.
‘uh? Why are you so irritable?…’
Even at this moment, it seemed like a weak anger creeping up.
Gauriel seemed to have felt that too.
“Is it necessary to shoot like that from the beginning?”
I desperately tried to calm the anger and hold on to reason.
Isn’t the opponent the opponent?
On the day when I accidentally offended him and it led to a battle… I didn’t even want to think about it.
Gauriel tapped his sword on his side.
“I am not trying to fight you. .”
“……”
“And to be honest, if I were to compete swords with you… I don’t think I would win easily. I don’t have the desire to fight.”
You seem to be misunderstanding something very big.
What the hell do you think of me like that… overestimated…
“You still look young, but you’re already at that level. It’s amazing. I mean.”
Gauriel continued talking.
What else to say…
“Are you thinking of becoming my disciple?”
crazy or that
I almost burst into anger for a moment.
Gauriel’s apprentice appears to have died in the story.
I had no intention of heading to the death flag with my feet.
“refuse.”
“……Sorry.”
sad bitch.
while I’m dumbfounded
Gauriel stroked his chin.
“Even if I look like this, I’m not that weak. To be rejected in one shot. Haha. It seems like he’s such a talented person to miss out on.”
I don’t know why, but I seemed to have quite a liking for Gauriel.
‘Was the demon I killed earlier a bit strong?’
I do not know.
Maybe it was from the point before the original story, it was the first time I saw him.
“If my apprentice also rejected it, you wouldn’t want to become a paladin? Hmm, so what about this?
“Anything?”
“Yes. Whatever.”
Did they say that opportunities come at unexpected moments?
I immediately turned on the calculator in my head.
‘That Gauriel? Anything?…… Will you listen?’
Anything… Anything!
I couldn’t just blow up this chance.
I felt as if dozens of hundreds of cases had passed through my mind in an instant.
I was thinking about the fleeting moment that seemed like an eternity…
I’ve come up with the best option for myself.
“…Seven Knights.”
The option to obtain the second unique skill.
