Chapter 274 (1/2)

“End?”

“The experiment ends when I kill you. Why did I come? They said they would grant me a wish if I kill you. And the most important part is…”

Cha Jun Sung paused for a moment. This is why he told her.

“The dead can’t speak.”

Woong!

As soon as Cha Jun Sung spoke, a giant object opened the space in the sky and came out.

Evil Queen heard the resonating sound and looked up.

“What…”

“That’s going to create a ring for us. No one can interfere in our fight.”

It’s the Heavy Gravity that Borteth summoned when he had fought against Evil Queen’s daughters. Borteth had acted alone then, but not this time.

There was a unanimous decision to use it.

They didn’t hold back on any support for Cha Jun Sung’s battle.

Though he would be the one fighting her.

The Heavy Gravity unfolds a gravity field.

Cha Jun Sung threw Evil Queen on the ground and dragged her here in order to get her away from the Lifers.

Helpers would have received orders from supervisors by now, deeming this a dangerous area and actions would have been taken so no one could approach.

“Lifers will have room to breathe if you’re gone.”

He knows the situation.

Even if the level 8 skeletons create a mess, there are a lot of level A Lifers and they will be able to win even if there are a lot of sacrifices.

Cha Jun Sung emanates black smoke.

Eyes visible through the black smoke come to life with intent to kill. It was like looking at the devil descending from hell.

“Ho ho! You can’t beat me. You said I’m the end? That the dead can’t speak? You’re foolish. Very foolish.”

Evil Queen takes a deep breath. The bone armor swells and shrinks repeatedly with the main body’s breathing.

Cha Jun Sung focuses on this behavior.

“I can kill you in this state too, but let me show you. My power.”

Small skeletons form endlessly from Evil Queen’s body. Those skeletons pile up and swallow Evil Queen.

After a first and second awakening, a third awakening.

An energy that stabs at his skin makes Cha Jun Sung shake. Did they say she fused with Bon Load?

It isn’t 1+1+ 2, but as though she gained power beyond 3, 5, and 10.

A giant skeleton mountain made up of living, writhing skeletons.

Each of those skeletons change to resemble Evil Queen, who is about 2 meters tall.

The skeletons did not stop multiplying even as they created Evil Queen’s form. There was no end to the skeletons or to Evil Queen.

“Do you think they’re alters? The entire thing is me. We’re all one and we’re many. All of us are one. I don’t die unless you kill all of us.”

[It’s true. It seems she’s dispersed her nucleus’ power into the entire skeleton mountain. If you miss even a single one, Evil Queen will regenerate.]

“She’s become nearly immortal. But Odin, I won’t lose.”

[Gate open! Requesting permission to use… Request granted! System activated!]

‘Aren’t I a mutant?’

‘You are a mutant when considering just the nature. But the thing is… is there a mutant that can act as a Lifer? Even level 8 and 9 mutants wouldn’t be able to do this because of their instincts. We restricted your entry into missions because you have mutant strength, not because you’re not a Lifer. That means that you can become a Lifer and a mutant. You’re the only person who can use the strength of both.’

The last conversation he had with Jigneon.

Jigneon said that he would be able to use the strength of both, but Cha Jun Sung thought it impossible.

Should he wear a battlesuit while in mutant form?

Not only is there no battlesuit he could use, but it would have the worst efficiency if matched to his size.

If a whole body mutating mutant is trapped inside a battlesuit, he will lose as much power as he has gained. In that case, it is better to focus on his given strength.

And it’s laughable to have firearms or a vibrating weapon.

It is better to have something than not and it is probably helpful, but that doesn’t fulfill the meaning of being able to derive strength from both powers.

‘It’s not like there isn’t a battlesuit you can’t use. If it’s you, you should be able to exert even more efficiency than Gabenu and me.’

When he heard up to this, Cha Jun Sung realized what Jigneon meant.

It’s possible with that. Any mutant could use it.

‘I wonder what fighting with level 9 mutant strength will look like. That itself will be the ultimate ideal transcending Life Mission’s test result.’

Woong!

The sky opens up with the supervisors’ permission.

This is different from with the Heavy Gravity. A pair of light rays come down to Cha Jun Sung.

The silver rays of light change direction to opposite sides and took charge of their own halves of Cha Jun Sung’s body. At the end, they combined into one.

[Miracle system activated. Energy 100%, synchronization 100%. I feel good from having been with a great Lifer. It’s often said that they couldn’t have dreamt it. The same goes for me. I never dreamt that I would be able to use the Miracle.]

Cha Jun Sung’s body slightly lifts into the air. He doesn’t feel the booster’s repulsive force. It was soft and comfortable as though he had wings.

Vitality rushes throughout his body.

He is wearing two Miracles on his own. He felt like he could push over a mountain.

[Don’t try to handle the Miracle. There’s no need to do so. Think of it as a part of your skin and body. It will follow your will.]

He saw the Miracle’s abilities with his own eyes while fighting Gabenu. It has a shape but can’t be caught, changing freely. It is water.

Cha Jun Sung spreads his wings. The Miracle reacts and takes the same shape as the wings. It isn’t even 0.01 seconds late so as not to interfere with the transformation.

Currently, the Miracle isn’t sticking to Cha Jun Sung, but conformed about 1cm off of him. It is in consideration of the reaction rate to his mutation.
