I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 163

Chapter 163

Episode 163

‘You used the manipulated law in reverse?’

This was the law that Marquis Schuppen manipulated.

A twist in the angle of movement.

If you face it straight ahead, it will twist diagonally.

Conversely, if you move in a different direction, you may end up going back to your original direction.

Of course, it would have been impossible to figure out which of the countless angles was pointing in the original direction, but Christian calculated the angle in reverse using the direction of the momentary twist.

“!!”

Marquis Schuppen furrowed his brows.

If this continues, I’ll really get hit.

Paaaaat!!

A dark shield rose from Marquis Shupen’s body.

Just as those who have reached the 6th star each have their own unique willpower, those who have reached the 7th star also have their own unique power of domination.

This is the unique ruling power of Marquis Shupen, the ‘Shield of the Dark Soul’.

It could be seen as the embodiment of Marquis Shupen’s will to protect the Dark Maga with the power of absolute defense that ignores the rules.

‘Did I use too much power?’

Marquis Schuppen felt a little regretful.

By the way, this was the first time Marquis Shupen had used this power.

That meant that Chris’s attack this time was threatening.

‘Now that you know what this power is, step aside.’

If you hit a rock with an egg, the egg will break.

If he collided with the shield of the dark spirit, only Christian would be hurt.

but.

Christian didn’t stop.

“Put the pressure down!!”

He struck down his sword with even stronger determination.

Kwaaaaang!!

A loud explosion rang out.

“!!”

Of course, the shield of the dark soul did not move even an inch.

Instead, it was Christian who took the hit.

Whether he had suffered an internal injury or not, blood was gushing from his mouth.

“…Stop it. This is enough.”

But Christian did not back down.

With a look in his eyes as if to say this.

I will never stop.

This is the path I should take.

But why is that?

When you look at that sight, what comes to mind is what Christian said earlier?

– If you want to protect something, sometimes you have to boldly cross the line and move forward.

Up until now, he had lived only for the Dark Maga.

The reason I tried to preserve the identity of the Marquis of Shupen was because I thought it was right for the Dark Maga.

But was it really the right direction?

Would it have been right to just protect it?

If you just look at the results, it wasn’t like that.

The dark magic was rotting and crumbling.

I tried to protect it, but I couldn’t.

If he hadn’t been cowering.

If Christian had moved forward like he is now.

The results could have been different.

At that moment, a large darkness flickered.

Christian struck down the black dragon with all his might.

The will to destroy everything that stands in the way.

Kwaaaaaaaahh …

A shock wave swept through the surroundings, turning them upside down.

Christian eventually couldn’t hold on and was thrown backwards.

and.

“…….”

Marquis Schuppen stared blankly at his hands.

There was a faint solid line.

I was hit by the shockwave that exploded beyond the shield.

It was a minor wound that wouldn’t be noticeable unless you looked closely, but it was unbelievable.

In the end, Christian made a declaration that he would give it a try.

“haha.”

Marquis Schuppen laughed.

Why is that?

I felt a sense of relief.

“ha ha ha!!”

He admitted it.

Christian’s words are not wrong.

If you really want to keep it.

That I had to move on.

At that moment,

Something has changed in Marquis Schuppen.

Without realizing it, his consciousness had moved towards selflessness.

A lot of thoughts passed through my mind.

The water that had been filling the bowl began to overflow.

Everything that has been built up until now is reestablished and reborn.

How much time has passed like that?

Flash.

Marquis Schuppen opened his eyes.

and.

Paaaaaaaah!!!

A thick darkness flowed out from Marquis Shupen’s body.

It is not a simple manifestation of magic.

The entire space was engulfed in darkness.

As if turning the surrounding area into a territory ruled by darkness.

An absolute sense of oppression filled the space, as if the life and death of all beings within it were in their grasp.

It didn’t last long.

It died down quickly.

Marquis Schuppen, who came to his senses late, made a bewildered face.

“What, what is this?”

Christian, who was watching from the side, said.

“Congratulations on stepping onto the absolute throne.”

Yes, that’s right.

What Marquis Schuppen just unfolded was none other than the ‘domain of domination’.

It was the power of the 8-star Almighty class.

* * *

‘It’s not yet fully 8-star. It’s roughly at the level of 8-star Jin.’

The expression of the area was immature.

In terms of strength, it was barely at the level where it could express strength.

But it was only a matter of time.

Once you set foot in it, it won’t be long before you reach the full eight-star level.

“I have entered the realm of the absolute?”

Marquis Schuppen’s eyes looked as if he couldn’t believe it.

I thought it was impossible my whole life, and now I’m suddenly achieving it?

“Accomplishments tend to come unexpectedly.”

“you….”

Marquis Schuppen looked at Christian with confused eyes.

“Surely you wouldn’t do such things during sparring to help me achieve something?”

Christian did not deny it.

“Well, I was just helping you a little bit. Your Majesty, your vessel was already full. If your vessel had not been completely full, you would not have been able to reach this level so easily.”

Marquis Schuppen made a face of absurdity.

Christian spoke lightly, but he definitely did not take it that way.

How many top mines are frustrated because they can’t take that one step?

Christian is nothing short of a miracle.

A madness that is only possible if Marquis Schuppen sees exactly what wall is blocking him and what enlightenment is needed, and naturally leads him to that enlightenment.

“Well, as you know, I’m a genius, so I’m good at helping others. Anyway, I’m glad if it helped.”

Marquis Schuppen kept his mouth shut.

Even a genius like me would be confused as to how something like this was possible, but that’s not important.

He expressed his gratitude with sincerity.

“Thank you. I owe you a great favor.”

okay.

This is not something that can be expressed with just the word help.

It was like receiving a favor.

“What? It is right for people of the same bloodline to help each other. If Your Majesty needs it, wouldn’t you be able to help me?”

Marquis Schuppen understood what Christian was saying.

This meant that the help wasn’t free.

Of course, Marquis Schuppen had no intention of accepting this favor.

It was obvious what Christian wanted from Marquis Schuppen.

but.

“It’s impossible for me to hit Langham right now.”

“Hmm?”

“Of course, I won’t ignore Langham’s mistakes in the future. But I still don’t have the strength to deal with Langham.”

It was an unexpected story.

You’ve reached the realm of the 8th star, but you say you lack strength?

“Langham’s power is not at the level of a 7-star. He has not surpassed the realm, but instead, he has strengthened his power through terrible secrets. It is no less than that of an 8-star.”

Christian also knew the general story.

‘I gathered strength like that in my previous life too.’

Although he is still weak and quiet, Marquis Langham eventually gains his strength and kills Nordian.

‘It won’t be long. I’ll have a little more freedom than I had in my previous life, since I’ve prevented you from obtaining the Twilight Amulet.’

The artifact that played a decisive role in amplifying the power of Marquis Langham was the ‘Amulet of Twilight’.

Before he became a Confucius, Chris prevented him from being handed over to the Marquis of Langham during the fight for the relics of the Maga clan.

‘But I can’t rest easy. If it’s Marquis Langham, he’ll definitely get the power he wants, even if it means using other means.’

Chris, who had thought about it that far, opened his mouth.

“I think you’re misunderstanding something.”

“Hmm?”

“I never asked Your Majesty to fight the Marquis of Langham.”

“…….”

“Above all, isn’t it realistically impossible? If Your Majesty attacks Marquis Langham, the Dark Maga will collapse due to internal strife.”

If Marquis Shupen attacks Langham, the Dark Maga will be divided into two, the Dark Maga Army and the main house, and they will fight a war.

“then?”

Chris crossed his arms.

“Marquis Langham will retaliate with his own power.”

“!!”

“Your Majesty, it is enough for you to be my assistant.”

What an absurd story.

But Marquis Schuppen no longer considered those thunderous words to be nonsense.

Because I experienced Christian’s crazy abilities firsthand.

Marquis Schuppen shook his head.

“I have not yet pledged my loyalty to you. Of course, I fully recognize your abilities, but you are not yet qualified.”

Christian’s greatness was fully acknowledged.

But that alone wasn’t enough to warrant loyalty.

So, it was a question of qualifications.

Strictly speaking, Christian was still not enough to gain the loyalty of Marquis Shupen, the commander of the Dark Army.

‘There is only one way. To accomplish a great feat that will not be insufficient to merit the loyalty of Marquis Shupen.’

As it happened, something just happened.

“I have something to tell you anyway.”

“What is it?”

“Your Majesty, there is an enemy seeking your life.”

“!!”

The Marquis of Schuppen’s eyes hardened.

Christian told me what he knew.

“…The mysterious Maga and the Four Kings joined hands. Honestly, it’s hard to believe.”

“But it didn’t seem like he was lying. We need to be prepared.”

Marquis Schuppen nodded.

The question is how to prepare.

“We must not allow the Dark Demon Army to get involved. If the mysterious monsters of Maga really have the powers rumored, ordinary demons will only be useless sacrificial lambs. I and the five generals will fight against it.”

That would have been the most correct course of action, but Chris shook his head.

‘Not enough.’

If the enemy were a normal mine, it would be enough.

But Chris knew what Patera was and what powers he could wield.

‘Patera summons the power of the devil.’

It cannot last long, but for a moment, Patera exerts a disastrous power.

There was even a time when the warriors’ party was almost annihilated by Patera’s power.

I could see how terribly strong the power that Patera could exert was.

‘At that time, the Dark Talker told us how to neutralize Patera, but no one dared try.’

It was not a method that humans could accomplish in the first place.

At that time, the group of warriors simply held out, waiting for Patera’s power to run out.

‘But you have to do it. You can do it.’

Chris opened his mouth, looking at Marquis Schuppen.

“Do you remember that before the duel, you promised to reward anyone who succeeded in striking Your Majesty with a blow?”

“Of course I remember. What kind of award do you want?”

Chris was silent for a moment.

“Please follow my tactics when fighting the mysterious Maga monster.”

“!!”

He looked straight at the Marquis of Schuppen.

“Faith in the absolute absolute. That is the only way to defeat the Mysterious Maga monster without any sacrifice.”
