The Novel’s Villain

Every time a Dark Emperor passes through the red trail, the fighter disappears. Pirate fighters were fast, but they were no match for the Dark Emperor.

I was just being teased.

Dark Emperor swings the beam sword. A crescent-shaped sword blasts out and slashes the battleship and fighter in front of you at the same time. The scene of multiple fighters and battleships exploding simultaneously was spectacular.

‘That's quite an amplification. ’

Jinwoo nods, looking at the beam sword.

Movement is slower, but power is stronger. As Jinwoo became accustomed to the gas, it was hell itself from the opponent's perspective. The fighters just explode.

But Latika was a woman who had long led the pirate alliance. You use the fighters to obscure the vision of the Sun Woo. Jinwoo pauses and watches something.

Usually, villains were caught by this relaxed attitude.

‘I wonder.’

However, Jinwoo wanted to catch him on purpose.

Pa!

The pirate fleet flashes and the fighters rise vertically. It was a well-woven organization.

Jinwoo looks straight ahead.

Dozens of fleets have launched beam cannons simultaneously.

The beam particles coalesced into one and became a massive flow. I'm surprised it didn't explode when we bumped into each other. Matching the wavelengths of the beam particles was a high-level technique that could only be performed by an Empire ship. Of course, the power was great.

‘I wanted to do something and I was preparing for this. ’

Latika came out as a capable Hiro.

He was superior to the Imperial officers in fleet operations and strong in guerrilla warfare as a pirate. And his ability as a pilot, as well as his personal power, were also quite strong.

He was a talented person with both intelligence and power.

Above all, charisma was great enough to unite countless pirate alliances.

It was a story of a great criminal.

There seemed to be a lot of reasons to become a pirate, but do I need to know?

‘Hmm…’

Jinwoo unmounts the beam sword and reaches out both hands. The instant the beam particles shot out at an incredible speed reach Jinwoo's hands, they stop.

[Don't stop the beam cannon. You stopped it?]

[I can't!]

[No way!]

A scream erupted from the pirate fleet.

But it wasn't just a deterrent.

Gigggggggggggggg!

As soon as the two hands began to come together, the beam particles became compressed and disappeared. The powerful light emitted by the beam particles disappeared in an instant, and no explosion occurred.

However, the Dark Emperor stood still. My hands were hanging steadily, but I quickly cooled off.

This was also pretty good for entertainment.

‘Durability is good. ’

Jinwoo began to like the Dark Emperor.

At this rate, it was worth calling it a power boost.

At first I thought it was just a game, but the idea was long gone.

It was also a gas created by the whole dimension.

Deguron referred to the Dark Emperor as the masterpiece of surpassing Black Flame Dragon. However, it didn't seem like that much for Jinwoo to feel.

It's because Black Salt Dragon was so fierce.

[Emperor! Enemy fleet warp drives are being prepared!]

[Two minutes to warp drive!]

[It looks like the beam cannon overloaded the engine, speeding up warp drive time! The engines will fail... but it's a hell of a makeshift transition!]

We've got comms.

The beam cannon was also a siege to buy time to prepare for the warp drive at the same time as the attack.

You were embarrassed when you first saw Dark Emperor, but you were responding fairly reasonably well.

[Extract opponent's warp coordinates!]

[The warp coordinates are different for each ship!]

I felt like I had chosen to flee.

It was the best judgment. If you think you're disadvantaged, it's okay for a pirate to run without a clue. Even in Jinwoo, it was impossible to go after them all.

After all, there was only one body.

Jinwoo sees an escape pod heading toward the satellite base. According to Maan, Latika was on board.

Is it bait?

Could the Pirate Leader have taken the bait?

She can catch them, but she'll miss all the other pirates.

‘I don't want to miss this. ’

It was a fact to let it go unless it was swept away at once. Moreover, it was embarrassing to spread out and scatter.

[Your Majesty, I'd like to communicate with Dr. Kim Dae-jin!]

Communication with Dr. Kim Dae-jin has been established.

Dr. Kim Dae-jin's face came to my mind. Dr. Kim Dae-jin was wearing a white robe, and was wearing a strange mask covering half his face.

No matter how much I looked at it, the concept was too much.

[Your Majesty! Mad Scientist of the Dark Empire! Man with two faces! I'm Daejin Kim.]

“… Hmm. ”

[Now is the time to use it!]

Dr. Kim Dae-jin exclaimed excitedly.

[D, are you finally using it!]

[Your Majesty! Now is the time!]

Dr. Choi Sung-min and Deguron were also involved in video communication with Dr. Kim Dae-jin.

Jin Woo did not understand what it was. It was because I heard there was something hidden in it, but I didn't explain it.

The Dark Knight's main bridge has also received communications.

[That's it!]

Seyeon was also excited.

The characters in the video all stare into the snow. My eyes were very shiny. At this point, I was curious about what it was, so I wanted to try to trigger it.

“Okay, I don't know what it is, but let's try it. ”

Jinwoo said so, and everyone started to move busy.

[Start synchronization with Dark Emperor!]

Come on, move!]

Dr. Kim Dae-jin seemed pretty busy.

Jin Woo looked at Se-yeon. Seyeon became a happy face. He gestured like Sarah Brick.

Where the hell did he learn to do that?

It was creepy because it was so natural.

[The Emperor's Code ‘Dark’ has been approved!]

[Code Dark Approval Confirmation!]

[Dark Emperor Support System Activated!]

[Each area is closed! Prepare for impact for the crew on board!]

Thud!

The video was wobbly.

Jinwoo turns his head to look at the Dark Knight. The side of the Dark Knight opens, and tiny, bead-shaped horsepower engines spill out.

At that moment, a machine comes down in front of Jinwoo.

There was a red button on the machine.

Is that all you have to do? ’

It doesn't matter if it's just a button, it's a hassle surrounded by glass devices. Jinwoo clenched his fist and hit the button. The glass shattered and the button pressed.

Then my vision became red.

Magical engines emanating from the Dark Knight have begun to attach itself to the Dark Emperor's arms, back, waist, legs, and head. The spark fries and settles down as if it had always been one.

A number appeared on the screen and the word ‘Drak Emperor’ was engraved. The word was reduced and marked as’ D.E '.

Soon, the familiar word 'Dark Flame Dragon’ appeared on the screen. "D.F.D."

"Black briar?"

It was the moment when Jin Woo tilted his head.

[D.E + D.F.D]

When the phrase came out, the whole image of the Dark Emperor appeared in front of me.

As Jinwoo looks at his right hand, a Black Flame Dragon protrudes out with immense magical power. The body of a black flame dragon that was cutting through space was also fitted with a magical engine emanating from the Dark Knight.

[Dark Emperor Support System Activated!]

The front of the Dark Knight folds over and a massive horsepower engine behind it protrudes forward. The antenna is assembled and approaches the front of the ship.

Seyeon, who was bowing her head, smiled. Then he opened his arms and laughed madly, louder.

[The time has finally come! I accept the merger!]

[Spray coalescence induced particles!]

Kuaaaa!

The Dark Knight's Magic Engine radiates and envelops the Dark Emperor and the Black Flame Dragon.

The Dark Emperor has begun to move in line with the induced particles from the Dark Knight.

‘No way...’

Jin Woo realized what it was.

It was a merger.

Dark Emperor meets Black Dragon!

You're really merging? ’

The Black Salt Dragon has begun to separate. Black Salt Dragon was originally made by Deguron, not by life. Separated Black Flame Dragons begin to coalesce following the light emanating from the Magical Power Engine attached to the Dark Emperor.

Jinwoo was also amazed.

Kwung! Kuang!

You surround the Dark Emperor as if a new armor were to emerge. Armor of black dragons was formed on his shoulders, chest, and legs, and a newly created helmet was placed on his head. And behind his back were enormous shell wings.

[Synchronization 20%, 30% … 100%]

[System All Green! Merge Success!]

The shell disappears and a red glow erupts. It was a tremendous output that was not comparable to the original Dark Emperor.

Cheerio!

A red spark splashes across your body and a black flame rises. The black salt and red magic particles blend together to create a frightening atmosphere.

I posed as my arms were unfolding by themselves.

Jinwoo never intended it. It was due to induced particles remaining.

[This is the Dark Flame Emperor!]

I heard Seyeon's voice.

It was a very childish name.

“Oh…”

All gauges on the screen were filled to the end. I didn't think so, but they really merged. The snow shifts the gas.

"The reaction rate is..."

It was fantastic.

The reaction rate follows its own pace. I even felt like my body was expanding. It seems to be because of the Black Salt Dragon.

Dr. Kim Dae-jin's communication came to mind.

I heard the researchers cheer together.

[Emperor! Use Black Salt MultiKill Light! Black Flame Multi-Destruction Beam can stop the enemy fleet's warp!]

That's what Dr. Kim Dae-jin said.

It seemed to depend on something. Jinwoo nodded and thought of black flame multi-kill rays, which changed in the Dark Flame Emperor. His shoulder armor opens, and his wings split in dozens, and he floats around.

[Magic Charge 100%]

Jinwoo immediately filled up the gauge with magic. It reminded me of a radar or something. It was a radar shared with the Dark Knight's main bridge.

[Dark Flame Emperor confirms radar transmission! Determine the target!]

[One minute to hostile fleet warp!]

[Target is an enemy fleet engine! Assigned!]

Tiddie!

Dozens of targets appeared on the radar at the same time and became lock-ons.

How do we launch it?

“Fire.”

Jinwoo called for a light shot, but it didn't work. Dr. Kim Dae-jin's communication came to mind.

[Your Majesty! Please tell me that chanting the name of technology is the law of the universe.]

“... was there such a law? ”

[Yes, you must shout aloud to trigger it!]]

Dr. Kim Dae-jin's attitude changed a little.

Jinwoo sighs a little. We had to fire before we could escape.

“Hmmm, Hmmm, Black Flame Multiple Kill Light Launch! ”

Jinwoo's cry has triggered.

Dozens of red rays emanate from the Dark Flame Emperor. The red rays flew through space, bending like lightning.

As soon as we got to the enemy fleet, it started to rain. It was not just a rainstorm made of beams. It was a guide beam that destroyed the target precisely.

Kuaaaa!

You pierced through the shields and armor of the pirate fleet and pierced the engine. Warp aborted with all fleet engines blown.

There were side effects that overloaded the engine. The engine explodes and flames spread.

Cheers!

Once the launch is complete, the Dark Flame Emperor returns to its original form. The pirates can no longer escape. Escape ships have erupted from the disabled pirate fleet.

Disappeared to an asteroid site and quickly entered a coalition satellite base. Several escape vessels have exploded into an explosion without avoiding the waves of small asteroids.

[Your Majesty, we are entering a pirate satellite base to rescue the civilians.]

There was a communication with Juna.

She was also calling for Jin Woo to be abandoned in response to the situation.

[There are too many asteroids for the transport to access. Gravity interference is high. Defense turrets have also been identified.]

Like Yuna said, the transport ship that flew the T1 Corps was not easily approached. Lots of asteroids around.

The gravity of the Gas Planet is also acting, making it difficult for the transport ship to get around the asteroid. Moreover, it is located around the satellite base, as well as the defensive turret.

It was literally a fortress.

‘What I just wrote seems to be a little weak...’

Is there anything that can wipe out an asteroid?

Bress, amplified by the Dark Flame Emperor, would have been able to wipe out that asteroid zone. When Jinwoo said that, Dr. Kim Dae-jin nodded as expected.

[Dark Hadron Beam!]]

“... Who named it? ”

[Voted on the horse system!]

The moment it got dark, Sarah Briak's face came to mind.

The dark extinct particle beam was an amplification of the Dragon Bress through the Dark Flame Emperor. With that much magical power, only the monarchy could use it.

Jinwoo raises his magical power and opens the chest of Dark Flame Emperor. The chest had a key magical engine emitting red light. The core horsepower engine was able to handle the overload of magical power.

[Charge Magically 200%, 300%]

[Magic Overload Warning!]

Every part of the Dark Flame Emperor is red.

I had to chant the name of the technology again. Jinwoo hesitates for a moment, then stops speaking.

“Dark Hadron Beam Launch! ”

Jiaying! Kuaahhhh!

A red glow emanates from the Dark Flame Emperor. It was a wave of enormous magical power. It was the breath of a monarch that could not be implemented with existing science technology.

It reaches out and reaches the asteroid zone. The asteroids didn't explode. It just vanished into powder. The particles of extinction spread out and reached the asteroid.

They hit asteroids like a virus. The invaded asteroids have been wiped out.

The asteroid zone disappeared in an instant. However, the power of the dark extinct particle rays was so strong.

Kuaaaa!

Reached the gas planet in the background. Gas planet was brown as if it were looking at Jupiter. However, the brown gases swirled red as soon as they came into contact with the dark extinct particle beam.

Giant gas planets were much larger than Jupiter in the solar system. Such a gas planet was covered in explosive flames. The dark extinct particle rays swirl around like a black hole.

A massive storm has erupted over the planet Gas.

It was a terrible sight.

Kwa-ga-ga!

Shocking waves have driven the pirate fleet away.

“That's amazing."

A little more magical power would have blown the planet away. The Gas Planet is in serious condition, but fortunately that hasn't happened. If a gas planet explodes, the entire area will be blown away.

[Oh, this is the Dark Hadron Beam!]

[Planet Destruction Class Power!]

Dr. Kim Dae-jin and Dr. Choi Sung-min couldn't hide their excitement.

Dark Flame Emperor's open chest returns to its original shape. The maneuverability was slightly reduced by overloading side effects, but was not a big problem.

I couldn't shoot many of those things either. We had to wait for the magical engines and gases to cool.

[Hehe, hehe, this is the power of the Dark Empire!]

Seyeon provoked Latika with communications.

[Yes, you... monster...]

Latika is at the satellite base. It appears to have been swept away by the Dark Hadron Beam, but it appears to have crashed into a satellite base. You look lucky to be safe.

Ritaka's face is distorted. Seeing Se-yeon's appearance, Se-yeon was ecstatic.

‘… umm…’

Jinwoo suddenly looked at the black space.

Is the universe driving people crazy?

Jinwoo shakes her head.

“I'm entering the pirate satellite base. ”

[Copy that! We'll be waiting in orbit to commandeer the pirate ship.]

Dozens of pirate vessels have just been destroyed, floating through space. It was very good material. Jinwoo drove the Dark Flame Emperor to a pirate satellite base.
