I Became the Only Non-mage in the Academy

[Title: The Savior Solidifies the User's Body]

Lee Seo-ha looked straight ahead.

A simple technique that compresses and condenses the power of Defying Heaven. It was so basic that it didn’t even have a name, and he had simply ‘forgotten’ it.

Those who defiled everything.

Its embodiment literally mocked and desecrated everything. It ridiculed those who stand in its way and even deceived the laws of the world.

The Heavenly Demon and the Thousand Sorcerer frowned at the Apostle’s words.

“This guy… is the Apostle more dangerous than I thought?”

“…If we have to fight the Apostle, does that mean we need to gather at least three Transcendents? That sounds more like a warning to flee than a challenge.”

The Thousand Sorcerer spoke with a weary voice.

He steadied his breath.

The energy of Defying Heaven spread throughout his body, invigorating him.

Black stars revolved.

The Defying Heaven body settled within him. As it transformed into an Infinite Defying Body, it granted him infinite power.

He gently exerted force.

It felt like the space around him was distorting.

The power felt beyond imagination. With this, he could somewhat compete against Vicious Abomination.

He braced his legs.

And leaped forward.

Boom!

With a thunderous sound, Lee Seo-ha closed the distance to the Apostle. The Heavenly Demon’s Heavenly Destruction and the Thousand Sorcerer’s Eclipse had shattered the Apostle’s shield. 𝘙ÃＮ𝖔ВËⱾ

‘Could there be one?’

That was the embodiment of mocking everything.

There must be a shield.

Perhaps it was hidden or regenerated with his authority.

It didn’t matter.

The stars are spinning. The stars of Defying Heaven. And the stars of Boundaries. The boundary distinguishes everything. He confirmed that a shield had formed over the Apostle’s body.

Hee pierced through it.

The power of Defying Heaven combined with flames. He poured out the complete authority granted by Absolute Stat Black right here.

He added a new martial art to it.

Black Flame Style (黑炎式).

Fear Fire (怯火).

The black flames condensed into a handful.

As the extinction fear fire, capable of incinerating the world, revealed itself.

-What?

The Apostle emitted a bewildered voice.

It was truly perplexing. The techniques unleashed by the Thousand Sorcerer and the Heavenly Demon were powers that even an Apostle could hardly witness. However, it was fine. If he had shown that from the beginning, he could have twisted it with his authority.

However, that black flame, what was condensed into the black flame mixed with something fundamentally different.

Its brother used a power different from what was being utilized. He had consumed the foreign divine beings that manipulated extinction and obliteration… but did not use that power.

Rather, he used only his own power. The power that once opened the Genesis… that was what he wielded.

There were no premonitions.

Without any warning, it moved toward his abdomen.

The shield he had erected again, a barrier created to mock them.

It passed through completely.

The condensed sphere gained the power of the boundary and reached the Apostle’s body.

The black flame, capable of incinerating even the world, arrived and immediately burned the Apostle’s power. It scorched the Apostle’s power and turned everything upside down.

[From now on…]

Before the Apostle could finish speaking.

Lee Seo-ha awakened his dormant blood. The blood of the Giant tribe and the blood of the dragon responded.

Creeeak.

The space began to scream under the grip of his strength. A feat only possible through pure force. No, could this even be called a feat?

‘Simply.’

He simply condensed his power.

And struck down.

Extremely simple, but that was why it was so effective.

‘Boundary.’

The star of the boundary opened the door.

It shattered all the protective barriers surrounding the Apostle.

He added black flames.

The power of the Titan descended.

The blood of the dragon imbued him.

[Wait a minute…!]

The Apostle momentarily appeared perplexed as the power settled within Lee Seo-ha.

Kwahhhhh!

Lee Seo-ha brought down his fist.

“……Whi-yu. What tremendous power.”

The Heavenly Demon whistled and made an effort to calm down.

For the past two weeks, the Heavenly Demon had been sticking closely to Kim Seo-hyun, investing time in strengthening Lee Seo-ha.

There was no possibility for the Heavenly Demon to become stronger in just two weeks.

Kim Seo-hyun had said that she only needed to consume the Divine Maiden’s heart and become accustomed to its power.

-I’m fine.

Kim Seo-hyun refused.

In her case, the elevation of her realm directly translated to an increase in her power. The knowledge she possessed was several levels above her current realm.

Thus, Kim Seo-hyun could enhance her strength simply by consuming the Divine Maiden’s heart with a bit of adjustment.

So, it was Lee Seo-ha.

It had been two weeks since she began strengthening Lee Seo-ha.

It may seem like just two weeks, but during that time, she had changed remarkably.

What Lee Seo-ha required was durability.

His power could not withstand his own physical limits, so he demanded a strengthening of his body.

To be honest, she didn’t think that simply enhancing his durability would make him stronger.

‘That’s a bit of an exception.’

So, she wanted to fight more.

Every single technique Lee Seo-ha displayed inspired her.

Attacking the Apostle with sheer brute force, the occasional technique shown was so sophisticated that even the Heavenly Demon found it admirable.

“Well then, shall we go?”

The Heavenly Demon lifted the Black Heavenly Demon Sword.

Lee Seo-ha only taught her what that being could use. After all, they had no intention of collaborating.

If they were around the Transcendent level, they could somewhat synchronize their support.

However, most of them were beings that stood alone and were somewhat insane. Even if she suggested a coordinated attack, it was clear they wouldn’t trust each other and would expect her to adjust to them.

Thus, Lee Seo-ha focused on training and preparation.

The Heavenly Demon believed that was the right approach.

She leaped.

Unlike Lee Seo-ha, she did not leap foolishly. If Lee Seo-ha crushed everything with overwhelming specs, the Heavenly Demon was the one who subdued everything with skill.

After leaping, she landed quietly on the Apostle’s shoulder.

Through Divine Sight, she could see various defensive barriers being torn apart. Because of Lee Seo-ha’s attack, the Apostle had sacrificed part of his own body to defend against it.

Siiiii──.

The energy of Defying Heaven, which negates everything, clung to the Black Heavenly Demon Sword. The sword’s aura entwined. The sword’s strength, a symbol of destruction, was completed.

However, this was insufficient.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

That being could not even scratch it with the power called the Light of Destruction.

‘Is it a mountain range or something?’

That mass was not of an ordinary level.

To destroy it, an attack powerful enough to shatter a mountain range was necessary.

She thinned the destructive energy. Added a mental image to it.

A foot of land. From the collapsed, broken sky, she extracted a mental image and cloaked it over the Black Heavenly Demon Sword.

The Thousand Sorcerer was not dazed.

He calmly searched for his role.

‘Support?’

The destructive power was sufficient through his grandson-in-law. The Heavenly Demon would assist him with her skills.

Then, what he needed to do was support.

“Whew.”

He steadied his breath and looked on.

Yet, a hollow laugh escaped him. Being called the Thousand Sorcerer, revered by many humans, and only being able to provide support felt trivial. However, the Thousand Sorcerer wiped away his emotions.

What needed to be done here was clear.

To kill that being known as the Apostle.

To be honest, he wasn’t sure it was possible.

With one strike, he had ‘erased’ the power accumulated over nearly a century.

However, it had to be done.

Showing his granddaughter a peaceful world was his dream.

Lee Seo-ha looked at his hand.

It must have connected properly, but the sensation was lacking. That last strike was something he had put considerable effort into.

‘How bothersome.’

The energy of Defying Heaven was a power that negated everything.

However, if the being was an Apostle, it couldn’t just negate everything without reason.

Even with Kim Seo-hyun’s stats in martial arts and light, it would be difficult to harm that being.

He had thought it was simply due to the Apostle’s rank.

‘It looks a bit different now.’

But that wasn’t the important part.

“Huup.”

He took a breath.

He was still not accustomed to his strength. This would be resolved soon, so it was fine. The problem was that he couldn’t continuously strike the enemy in the current situation.

Crumble.

The sky collapsed. The Heavenly Demon laughed as she swung the Black Heavenly Demon Sword and charged at the Apostle.

Whoosh.

The magical energy lingered in the surroundings. The spheres of magical energy invigorated her as supportive magic clung to her skin.

‘Rune.’

With the power of Conceptual Stat Alchemy, she enhanced her body.

He wrapped herself with the Runes of Fortitude, Protection, and Recovery.

Accepting the magic, he gripped the Black Heavenly Demon Sword.

Zzzzzing──.

The stars within him began to stir.

[Title: The Savior infuses vitality into the user.]

A bit of vitality increased within him.

He closed his eyes and then opened them. The world appeared in seven colors. His seven-colored eyes observed the opponent’s magical energy, ultimately revealing weaknesses or impending attacks.

However, that didn’t apply to the Apostle.

The speed at which the magic transitioned was too fast.

As the Heavenly Demon swung her sword, thousands of spheres emerged around the Apostle.

Each one contained immense magical energy, emitting threads in all directions.

The threads connected.

They restricted the Heavenly Demon’s attacks.

“Such bothersome…!”

The Heavenly Demon gritted her teeth.

Magical energy flowed out from her body.

The energy of Defying Heaven spread in all directions, as if trying to devour everything.

“I won’t let that happen.”

The Thousand Sorcerer extended his hand.

The threads trying to restrain the Heavenly Demon collided with thousands of spells. Boom─! The Thousand Sorcerer was pushed back by the Apostle’s dismissive swing of his hand.

However, a very slight opening appeared. The Heavenly Demon burst through that gap.

There was no Heavenly Destruction now. But did they think she would only rely on that?

She pulled out something other than the broken sky from her mental image.

The Black Heavenly Demon Sword hummed, granting her power. Absorption. She combined the souls she had collected in the Black Heavenly Demon Sword, cramming them into the blade.

The energy of Defying Heaven intensified.

It intertwined, creating powerful energy.

If the power was insufficient.

Then she would add to that destructive power.

Just before the Heavenly Demon unleashed her strike.

Lee Seo-ha was quietly preparing his strength.

If Defying Heaven wouldn’t work, he could mix in something else.

He rotated the shapeshifting star.

Creak─.

His body creaked slightly. What had been fine even after enduring several strikes now warned him that this was dangerous.

The shapeshifting was as if it was saying it wasn’t time yet.

‘Now or never.’

He rotated the shapeshifting star.

He rotated the stars of Defying Heaven.

Two powers rampaged within him.

Immense. Something writhed inside him.

Was it the influence of the Giant?

Saaaaaaah───.

The surroundings darkened. Shadows enveloped the world. Even the Apostle, larger than a considerable building, had to look up.

‘Giant Dragon.’

Burning with black flames. It felt like it could overturn the entire world.

Shapeshifting.

Having obtained the Giant Dragon of Black Flame, his power was influenced by the stars of Defying Heaven. As it transformed into a power that negated everything and incinerated all, he left his will upon the shapeshifting.

The Giant Dragon filled the sky.

Kwoooooo!!

It descended to the ground.

Meanwhile, in another place.

‘Seo-ha?’

The starlight quietly sensed the anomaly.
