The King of the Battlefield Chapter 246

Volume 61: Demon King of the Ash Gray (4)
The ground broke in to pieces.
The sky, the space, like puzzles, they were cut up into small pieces.
Truly, it was not like any realistic phenomenon.
It was a very strange ambience as if the widespread space didn’t feel like the same world.
“Too bad. Just a little bit longer, it would have been possible to enter the world of omnipotence.”
Above that, there was Solomon.
And below that, a lot of things that King Slayer was wearing were scattered around.
Although an actual attempt was made to destroy Solomon by moving time, it was not enough.
As the after effects, the space and time were sliced up, but the space and time themselves could not be completely dominated.
That was King Slayer’s limitation.
The limitation of a demigod dragged into vain.
King Slayer over did it as he pushed his limit, and sustained an impact that was close to coming to self-destruction.
Certainly as a demigod, he probably knew well that he couldn’t have defeated Solomon, the only omnipotent god.
“The master of the other side should never come out from the other side. The results from everything you do are always destructive and messy. So, wasn’t it for that very reason that you’ve signed a contract with me?”
Solomon murmured silently.
Breaching the contract would result in destruction.
King Slayer. The noble knight of the past was no longer.
However, that didn’t mean that there weren’t any successes.
Solomon looked down on his own body.
The body was repeating the process of aging quickly to getting younger and vice-versa.
“Still, not too bad. I didn’t expect you to tie up my ‘time’ by sacrificing yourself. I didn’t realize that such method existed.”
Solomon. He was at nowhere and everywhere.
Therefore, he didn’t die even if he was killed, but different from the immortals. That was because they weren’t the immortals by its true definition.
Hence, wasn’t it that even Baal, who feared Solomon, had sealed the gate with Remegaton.
However… King Slayer has figured out the only Solomon’s weakness.
He has forcefully put Solomon into a cycle of time.
Going beyond the self imposed speed of 128 folds, he pushed the time to the 200 folds and forcefully tied him up.
Had it been perfectly executed with 256 folds of time, there would have been no way out.
Such things were possible by only ‘the angel of time’. However, ‘the angel of time’ had perished together when the Remegaton’s seal was broken.
That’s how Solomon understood it.
“King Slayer, if you were in less despair, you might have become a being which could perfectly will the worldly order.”
However, that becoming a reality was not possible.
As he has already perished!
Despair eats up at deity.
King Slayer was too much in despair to become a complete god.
That wasn’t the only thing, but all of the cases were the same for the masters of the other side.
That was the reason why the masters of the other side could not defeat Solomon.
Only absolutely perfect god was able to go up against Solomon.
Even the demons or that Baal were far from being a perfect god.
‘Do you believe that you’ll have the hope again by putting me in to the cycle of time?’
Even if King Slayer had force put him in to the cycle of time, his deity was still the same.
Omnipotence!
No one would dare to fight.
Only those with the equal deity could deliver damages.
No such being existed within the world of demons.
However, even the omnipotent Solomon could not immediately cause wanted things to happen.
‘It proves its futility.’
Due to Remegaton, it was impossible for Solomon to wield his influence within the world of demons.
However, if the ‘unusual event’ or the ‘great fissure’ caused by Diablo was to be expanded, even the ‘cleaning’ that Solomon desired could be possible.
‘Pymon.’
Solomon raised his head.
The spirit being of Pymon fluttered.
He was the one, who uncovers secrets, and the unique being which has watched the battle between Solomon and king Slayer.
And Pymon was now at the critical crossroads.
Solomon threw the words out as if he was murmuring to himself.
The words of, ‘have been placed inside the cycle of time’.
Perhaps, it could be the only weakness of Solomon.
However, Pymon was being restricted from revealing secrets. That was more so if it were to have greater influence over the world. As such, if it was the ‘weakness of Solomon’ then it would be like voluntarily walking in the path of extinction.
So he didn’t say it, but internally, Solomon wanted Pymon to tell this truth to Baal.
The more they struggled, Solomon’s influence would be magnified.
In fact, even time could be shortened.
It didn’t matter to Solomon that much, either way.
Here, this place to which they, themselves, gave the name of the world of demons.
There was no devil, angel, nor omnipotent god here in this place.
Artanas.
The one who was called the Death Lord was still in the darkness.
The other side.
In here, there was nothing, and there was everything.
They could see what they wanted to see and they could experience the happiest moments without limitations.
And experienced despair at the same time.
They were all half deities who fell in to futility from extreme despair.
Artanas… It was same for Death Lord.
He was watching. Watching himself before he was called Death Lord.
“O, great Life Lord, the creator of the magic of life!”
“Thank you for healing this child. Ah!”
“Praise! Artanas who is the only holy one on the continent!”
The magic of life. It was like Hormundclus which was a ‘synthetic life’ creating magic.
And by using that ‘synthetic life form’, Artanas has healed countless number of people.
He has become the hope of many as he was called the Life Lord and true holy one.
However, does one know?
That that magic of life was ultimately linked closely to death, as well.
He has overstepped the boundaries of his influence.
Going beyond creating synthetic life form, he wanted to expand his influence by encroaching on the magic of bringing the dead back to life.
Notably, he wanted to reach the area that was only possible by a true ‘god’.
And that arrogance led to destruction.
At the end of the countless number of experiments, unbounded despair, he turned his body into a Liche.
As a result, he was criticized. It was the result of practicing prohibited magic and experiments. Criticized as having become a disciple of death, he was attacked by the entire empire.
