Possessing Nothing

I don't know what the hell happened, but this one was clear. That man is dangerous. Rich has lived for over 100 years, but this is the first time.

‘Magic reflexes... No... Not that kind. If I had that kind of blessing in the first place, it wouldn't have worked. ’

Rich climbs over the wall to support his whirling body. For a monster named Rich, being flesh has no great significance. In the first place, what Rich needs to survive as a Rich is a 'Life Force Battle’ obtained by sacrificing his life to a man who contracted his soul with the flesh. As long as the Life Force Battle is intact, the body can be reconstructed at any time.

In other words, for Rich, physical damage is not a big problem. But mental damage is a different story. That's what's deadly about Richie. Mental assault.

‘What is he...?' ’

Magic reflected. It wasn't just a reflection. The return magic… was deadly and powerful enough to break Rich's spirit. The hidden life force battles have already dealt damage.

‘Other magic couldn't be reflected. However... the magic of reading his memories and obeying him was reflected. What is this? What kind of blessing is this...? ’

There were more than one or two suspicious things. The Demon King of Terror, who had signed with Rich, refused to sacrifice his soul. I can't accept it. The Demon King said so, and Rich paid the price for summoning the Demon King of Terror with a loving Magic Stone.

“Damn... what the hell is going on...! ”

Rich spits out furiously and continues to move. The reflected mental damage makes it hard to transport and hard to cast magic. I had no idea that humans would be like this to the highest level of human beings.

‘First, we have to replenish the lost magic...’

Rich walks along the ropes. I... didn't want to touch her. It was a feeling similar to the horror that Rich had felt in a very long time.

Rich heads to the drop-off of Class S mercenaries, including Zeon. Deeper than the workshop. Here, Rich was studying a grudge he wanted to achieve as he became Rich.

Two hearts.

Rich looks up at the two hearts floating in the air. The study of chimeras is to realize the ultimate of species. Mixes different species to create an ultimate artificial life. It is the chimera that is born in this way.

The reason for making the Ogre Chimera was because I thought that the closest of the two footed land monsters would be the Ogre. However, the results were not very satisfactory. It was ugly to look at first, and it was not well controlled. The life Rich wanted to make was more beautiful, more powerful.

That heart was the ultimate research that Rich had ever wanted. The only flaw was the inadequate readiness of the flesh to hold that heart. Originally, I was going to give the Demon King of Fear a twisted soul, and in return, I was going to transplant a heart with a poor body.

But we failed. This is the first time an offering has been rejected. Rich suddenly gritted his teeth, looking up at his heart. It doesn't matter. I don't want to mess with the Humans, but first we have to replenish the damaged magic and then we leave with the heart. Rich approaches the fallen mercenaries.

“Cute guy. Pretending to be asleep. ”

Rich grins as he drags away. At that, Zeon's body, which had fallen down, twitched. The spell you've placed has been released due to mental damage. The other mercenaries were still unconscious, but the best of them were already breathing heavily.

“Did you try to sneak up on me? Arthur, Arthur. Even if I'm not, you can play with him like a child. ”

Richie was right. Zeon pretending to be stunned woke up while chewing his lower lip. Rich ignores Xeon and forms a Demibeast. I remembered the bodies of mercenaries lying around Zeon.

“It's annoying... It's annoying. I can't believe this is happening. I thought every pleasant day would go on… but in the end, can't a mortal confirm a future without one...”

Rich mutters an unknown word and steals his energy from the mercenaries. Later, they fall to the ground like dry mummies. Seeing it, Zeon's body trembled.

“... Am I going to... be like that? ”

“Huh? No, not you. ”

After restoring some magical power, it seemed like I would live. Rich glances at Xeon with a pleasant smile.

“You are thinking of using it for something more valuable. Yes. With a soul like yours...”

“Prescan.”

Rich's body twitches. Zeon's eyes widen as he looks at Rich. Prescan. it's Rich's name. Rich turns his head as he trembles.

The man standing before you is looking at Rich. Rich, standing with his back turned, did not notice the man standing there, and it was the same with temperature. That man... came out of there, like a ghost.

“Now you've found it. I can't believe I'm stuck in a place like this...”

The man kicks his tongue and mutters. The man looking at Rich, Preskan, trembles with a feeling of panic and awe.

“Lloyd..."

“You haven't forgotten. ”

Lloyd shrugs and smiles. He slowly raises his hand as he approaches Prescan.

“It's been 10 years. I've been looking for you for 10 years. ”

“H-tough guy...! Are you still chasing me?! ”

“Yes. Boring pursuit. But you... what happened? You look weaker than you did 10 years ago. ”

Prescan didn't answer. I never thought Lloyd would come here today. It's a bad fucking fate.

“Well... it's none of my business. After killing you here, I don't know where you hid the Life Force Battleship. Then we'll have another boring chase. After I kill you here. ”

Lloyd reaches out, clamoring. Xeon, who sees Lloyd, trembles with a tremendous sense of pressure. It was Xeon that was feeling a haze through the walls of the cliffs, but the pressure that Lloyd was exerting towards Prescan was not something that Xeon would dare defy.

“F-damn it...! ”

Preskan shouts and gives birth to a Demibeast. Immediately, a black magic surge under Prescan's feet. Lloyd snorts as he watches Prescan's magic unfold. Similarly, Lloyd forms a Demibeast, and the Black Magic that was attacking Lloyd is pushed into a bright golden light.

“You won't be able to stand me. You want to fight me while I'm weak? ”

“You... monster! ”

“I don't know who sees you as a monster. ”

Lloyd is dying. Lloyd's golden glow brightens a dark cavity. Standing back, Prescan is forced to make a choice. If you continue to fight Lloyd, you will suffer a fatal wound and lose your body before returning to the location of the Life Force Battle. If it had ended on its own, Prescan would have chosen it without hesitation.

But it doesn't end there. Two hearts. That's the drama of the complaint that Prescan wanted to reach even as he became rich. Eventually, Prescan cried out, chewing his lips.

“Open your eyes! ”

At that shout, my heart thumped. A single heart beats like crazy, and a huge magical force shifts around the heart. Lloyd looks up at the air, startled. I let it go because I didn't feel anything. Not now. The magic and ominousness of the beating heart are enough to threaten Lloyd.

“What the hell are you...! ”

“Look!”

Prescan cries out. It's a choice he must make, but he is deeply amazed at the bitterness of his lifelong grudges. The magical power that was hurling became flesh. Lloyd hurries a Demibeast into the heart, but Lloyd's magic does not reach the heart and vanishes from the air.

The flesh is complete. Slowly descending to the ground, she looks like an immature girl. But not human. The ominous magical power of the heart was embedded in the girl's body.

“What the... what did you make...?" ”

Lloyd stutters and asks. Prescan opens his arms wide to answer the question.

“The Ultimate Being! ”

As she answered the cry, the girl opened her eyes. Although I shouted loudly, my heart and body are still incomplete. Moreover, it is not properly tuned because it is urgently blown. I said that, but I had no choice but to overcome this sudden situation.

‘We just need to make one complete. First of all...’

By the way.

She's in a strange condition. She just stands there and doesn't do anything else. Preskan, who was looking at the girl's back, shouted in a hurry.

“Kill him! ”

The girl did not answer. Just staring up into the air, dazed. One heart remained silent in the high air. Lloyd's eyebrows twitched as he looked at the girl with alert eyes. I didn't know what was going on, but this was a great opportunity for Lloyd.

Lloyd has changed the shape of the Demibeast. Kuaaaa! A golden tide strikes the girl. The eyes of the girl staring up at her heart are dazed. Paaang! Lloyd's magic, which was attacking the girl, was scattered into the air. As I watched the phenomenon return to Mana, Lloyd's mouth widens.

No, no, no, no, no, no. You dispelled my magic? Without honor?! ’

“Great!”

Prescan calls for joy. The girl turns her head in the shouting. Preskan stares at the girl's eyes and hardens. The expressionless eye did not contain murder, but it did not contain any other emotions. Looking at his lively eyes like a sewn doll, Prescan stepped back.

“W-what? I am your master, no, my father! ”

“I know. ”

The girl nodded and replied, shouting in a hurry. In the eyes of the girl who said that, a moment of sadness passed by. Instead, the girl's eyes turn to Zeon.

“That's okay, right? ”

“… Huh? ”

“I'm hungry. ”

The girl mutters before Prescan can can say anything.

It happened so fast. The girl was in front of Jeon one day, and Zeon, Shaolin's fastest disciple and greatest master, did not notice her approach. Even before Zeon reacted, death pushed Zeon's consciousness.

So Zeon died.

The girl pulled out the hand that was stuck in Zeon's chest. Prescan stands foolishly and looks at the girl's back. It was the same for Lloyd to lose his words. Both of them did not see the girl's movements.

The girl looked closely at the heart of Zeon, holding it in her hand, and she opened her mouth wide and chewed it.

“Ha, ha, ha...”

Preskan laughed with excitement, “... Monster...! ”

Lloyd burns the enemy.
