159 – Strategy
– Digging…
The back alley, once filled with dark shadows, begins to be filled with sky-blue sparks.
“That’s strange…”
– Pajik, Pajik…
“This… The calculation is not correct…”
In such a situation, the concept of humility begins to frown and mutter in a low voice.
– Gooooo…
Under his gaze, the shadows that had escaped his control and began to gather towards Kang Ha-neul, who had stretched out his hands high in the sky, were coming in.
“You may not yet be qualified to awaken as a complete knight…”
“Knight? Qualification?”
“…Everything begins, that child must quit.”
The concept of humility, as he said, points to the concept of death, floating in the air and shedding endless tears.
“It shouldn’t happen that you awaken before that child.”
“…Really?”
“Are you planning to destroy the great plan I have been preparing for decades…?”
He asked, looking at Kang Ha-neul with quite a creepy look in his eyes.
“What can you do if you break it?”
River Haneul only responded with the corners of his mouth raised as he faced that expression.
“Even if a decades-long plan or a disaster collapses before your eyes, what can you do, you bastard?”
“Hmm…”
The concept of humility makes you frown and shake your head at those words.
“It won’t work… I tried to get them on the same side as possible…”
He begins to calmly relax.
“…If this happens, shouldn’t we find another candidate?”
“Candidate…?”
Kang Ha-neul quietly tilts his head to those words and asks a question.
“You were the second-choice candidate. The first-choice candidate was, of course, your older sister…”
“……..”
“I already possessed the concept of hypnosis, the third-ranked candidate, but it was truly unfortunate that I lost my life to you…”
The concept of humility, which was quietly muttering, quietly raises the corner of its mouth and adds.
“…Well, at any rate, it was a result that was close to a failure. Even if you weren’t there, the chances of being lucky enough to become a knight were extremely slim.”
“So, what you want to say now…”
Kang Ha-neul looks at him with narrowed eyes and asks a question in a low voice.
“…Are you going to kill me and create a new knight?”
“That’s right. From the looks of it, it looks like you haven’t fully awakened yet.”
The concept of humility, which was answered in this way, continues the story while looking at the shadow suspended in the air.
“Looking at the way you are using your abilities now, I can get a vague idea. Don’t you realize it to some extent?”
“…………”
“Oh, I’m not disparaging your abilities. It’s just that I was given control of the shadows directly by a great being. Compared to me, I’m relatively less used to control…”
But then suddenly the concept of humility stops speaking.
– Gooooo…
He looked at the shadows that had been frozen in the air and began to wriggle violently at the touch of Kang Ha-neul’s hand, and he momentarily made a blank expression.
“I can’t listen to you anymore…”
In such a situation, Kang Ha-neul began muttering in a cold voice.
“What do you think my abilities are?”
“……..”
“I’m not used to control, but ironically, it’s the ability best suited to that control… You’re talking too easily… The concept of humility…”
His light blue eyes begin to glow darkly.
– Awww….!
– Grumble, growl…!
At the same time, the cries of the demonic beasts began to echo from all directions in the back alley.
“…There is only one target. Anyone who cares about anything else will be disposed of immediately.”
“””…………”””
From Noble mtl dot com
At every word from Kang Ha-neul, those guys close their mouths and start spewing out murderous intentions.
“Ha…”
The concept of humility made me look at the scene with a mixture of half awe and half annoyance, and then shake my head.
“It’s definitely a waste… I haven’t even fully awakened yet, but using an ability on that scale…”
“……..”
“However, we cannot allow the prophecy to go astray.”
He quietly answers while looking at Kang Ha-neul, who is sending out azure sparks in his hands.
“If we want to bring a great person to this world… We must follow the prophecy…!”
“…Tear it to pieces.”
At the same time, Kang Ha-neul gives out orders with a cold expression.
– Gurgling, gurgling…
The next moment, the tentacles that had been wriggling wildly in the air began to reach out toward the concept of humility.
– Gooooo…!!
– Grrr, gurrr…
– Heh, heh…
The demonic beasts, who had quietly lowered their posture and were spewing out deadly force, began charging towards him all at once, baring their teeth.
“…………”
It’s a scary scene that wouldn’t surprise an average person to urinate right away.
“Uh, uh…?”
“The body…”
But in that scene, a panicked voice suddenly begins to echo.
“Why does my body behave as it wants…”
＞ What, what…?
Kang Ha-neul and his group, who were staring blankly at the overwhelming scene happening around them, suddenly realized that their bodies were moving on their own.
“……?”
Kang Ha-neul, who was preparing to attack while glaring at the concept of humility floating in the air as if to kill him, realizes this fact slightly belatedly and looks embarrassed.
“Look at that…”
“…No way.”
“Didn’t I tell you that your abilities… Aren’t complete yet…?”
A calm voice of the concept of humility heard in such a situation.
“I wasn’t pointing out that your control was weak…”
“…………”
“The problem is that your abilities are too strong…”
The very moment when Kang Ha-neul’s eyes slightly wavered at those words.
– Blah blah blah…
The few street trees planted in the back alleys begin to fall sideways on their own.
“Your power is so strong that all living things around are trying to tear me apart…”
“…………”
“Of course.”
The concept of humility, which is observed in a sideways glance at the situation and whispered in a low voice.
“Even those children you cherish.”
“…………”
“Of course, you won’t be able to use your usual power… You’ll only focus on literally ‘tearing’ me apart, following your ‘orders’…”
A smile spread across his lips as he regained his composure.
“Oh, but don’t change the command. For example, ‘attack with all your might’ or ‘attack with all your might’…”
“…………”
“If the shadows in the sky become ‘electric power’, wouldn’t you know better what would happen…”
After saying that, he begins to stretch his hand towards the river sky.
“And yet you still manage to maintain your abilities…?”
“…….”
“Release it immediately.”
And then Kang Ha-neul’s short silence began.
“If not, at least those guys…”
– Sigh…
“………….!”
The eyes of the concept of humility, which was muttering with a sense of victory in that silence, soon turn round.
“aaa!!!”
“…Pfft!”
This was because the concept of death suddenly appeared above him, stretching out his hands with a cute expression on his face.
“Did you think I couldn’t even think what you could think…?”
“This bastard…!”
Thanks to this, the embarrassed concept of humility raises its voice and shouts, while Kang Ha-neul stands still on the ground and begins to whisper in a low voice.
“The person who is closest to you, but who can kill you with just one simple command from me…”
“Stop, Experiment 305004!”
“And, a person full of thoughts of killing you…”
“Stop…!!”
The concept of humility quickly pulled back and started giving orders with a more embarrassed expression than ever.
“eeek!!!”
It was an action that had absolutely no effect on the concept of death, whose eyes were burning brightly.
“Hey. No matter how urgent it is, you have to be humble in everything…”
“…….!”
“That’s the trigger for your ability…?”
Kang Ha-neul looks at the scene leisurely and mutters mockingly.
“…Well, I guess even you can’t be humble until you’re about to die, right?”
“Guys like minnows…!!”
He, who managed to hear those words in an urgent situation, quickly turns around and puts his hand into his bosom.
“I’m dying!!!”
And at that moment, the concept of death suddenly approached him from thin air, reaching out to his heart.
– Suuugh…
Her small hand was about to touch the heart of the concept of humility.
– I dig it, I support it…!!!!
“…….Ah?”
Suddenly, red sparks familiar to most people began to decorate the air.
“…….!”
“That…..”
The complexions of Kang Ha-neul and Ariel, who were watching the scene from the ground, turned pale for a moment.
“…As expected, you recognized it right away?”
The concept of humility, which was looking down at them with crazy eyes, began to raise its voice while caressing the red gauntlets on its hands.
“A gauntlet made from Justia’s left arm!!”
“”…………””
“Of course, since it is an unfinished product, it can only be used once a day…”
Thanks to this, in an instantly frozen atmosphere, he punched with all his might, flying into the heart of the concept of death, which was slightly pushed back thanks to the output of the gauntlet.
“It’s enough to turn this situation around!!!!!!!”
A split second where you can’t even react.
– Kugwagwagwagwagwang!!!!!!
A flash of red light, several times greater than the one emitted by Kang Haneul, filled the sky.
.

“…..?”
It was at that moment that the concept of humility, which was trying to smile in victory once again in that flash of light, felt that something was wrong.
“Really…?”
It was because I realized too late that the gauntlet made from Justia’s arm was torn, not the heart of the concept of death.
– Sigh…
The moment the concept of humility recognized it, Justia’s gauntlet, which had pierced his chin and tore his lower abdomen into pieces, raised its middle finger to his dazed eyes.
– Tup…!
“……!”
The very next moment, the hand of the test subject who had lived under control all his life touched his heart.
