Return of the EX-Class Genius Villain

King of Atlo

The swordsman drew his sword first.

“Finally I can test my sword.”

As the swordsman jumped into the battlefield, boasting an external force that seemed as if he would be cut with just a slight touch, the transcendents followed.

Martins, Transcendents, and Transcendents.

They didn’t back down a bit against Atlo, the real ruler of the universe.

I put my hand on my chest.

pounding. pounding.

My heart is beating faster than ever.

It would be rather strange if seeing that figure didn’t make my heart swell.

I was touched for a moment, so my father tapped the back of my hand.

“It must be a new feeling.”

“Yes, it really is.”

“But we are still at a disadvantage.”

“That’s right.”

Of course I predicted all of this.

Based on that prediction, we made a plan.

‘While they are holding Atlo’s gaze, I will cut the king’s neck myself.’

For that, he sent Ramune and Loki to the real universe in advance.

Loki’s Illusion will hide them and let them freely find the King, after which Lamune will be able to inform me with a message.

‘You couldn’t have imagined that we would be this strong.’

It will have no choice but to be.

Because 10 years ago, when they sealed me here, I was alone.

Our strength, which they would not have expected, caught their attention.

‘Now it’s my turn.’

Arlene has arrived.

“The preparations are over, shouldn’t we go soon?”

“I think we should wait a little longer. It seems that the seniors aren’t ready yet.”

It seems like a lot of time has passed, but Ramune still hasn’t replied.

Haven’t found the king yet?

Even so, I can’t stay here long.

Right now, we are the only ones doing nothing and standing still, but if we continue like this, they will eventually notice us.

The gaze that was turned will rather be focused on us.

‘I’d rather go and find it.’

Having made up my mind, I held my father’s hand tightly.

“I have to leave now.”

My father, who looked at me for a moment, opened his mouth with difficulty.

“okay… Take care of yourself, and take care of the children.”

“Okay, see you later.”

After bowing their heads and stepping back, the younger siblings rushed towards their father.

The real universe is an unknown space. Even if I and my younger siblings are strong, no one knows what will happen. Maybe the current greeting… No, let’s not think weak.

“Father, I’ll be right back!”

The greeting ended with lamba.

“Let’s begin, Alice.”

“yes!”

Elise’s external force covered my body.

sue-

It spreads to Arlene, Tom, Pierre, Lamba, Colsen, and Leon.

This is Alice’s characteristic ‘fairy tale’.

‘not bad.’

At this level, even Loki’s illusion game won’t fall behind.

As he nodded his head in satisfaction, Leon took the lead, embodying an external shield.

Next, my younger siblings surrounded me.

“let’s go.”

We moved as one body and headed for the hole.

As I was advancing through the battlefield without any fighting, the message from Lamune that I was waiting for came.

“found.”

* * *

A cold sweat runs down your back.

Ramune wanted to get out of here right now.

‘What a monster… … .’

Finding the king wasn’t too difficult.

– I was his only adversary. Of course he wants to see me die. Probably somewhere close to the center of the universe. Since there are no enemies to oppose, they must be waiting proudly.

It really was.

The king was close enough to be discovered after less than 10 minutes of entering real space.

However, Lamune could not send the message to Martin that he had found the king.

It was because the power he felt from that king was beyond his imagination.

-He is a first-class foreigner like me. As a king, he must be stronger than I am now, but it won’t be that different, right?

The king, seeing it in person, could not agree to this.

‘I think you’re wrong, junior.’

Having spent hundreds of years in Hell, Lamune had a habit of always imagining the worst and making preparations. Naturally, this time too, the King’s power was assumed beyond what Martin had said.

but that’s something

The king’s presence surpassed even the worst of imaginations.

‘It looks completely human, how could it be like that?’

In fact, the appearance of foreigners was almost no different from humans.

Those with a lower level had the appearance of grotesque monsters, but the higher the level, the closer they looked to humans.

And that king, except for his sense of presence and power, was in the form of a perfectly human being who would not feel strange to anyone.

‘It feels like I’m alone in another world.’

Nearly ten foreigners are seated around the king. They all look powerful… 1st class foreigners.

But they didn’t even come into sight.

The king’s presence, even when standing still, naturally drew attention from those around him.

Nothing else came to mind except overwhelming.

‘What now?’

He slowly turned his head and looked at Loki.

He couldn’t even look at the king properly. I was afraid that the king might feel the gaze, so I just looked around with my eyes down.

Even though she covers herself with the illusion that she was proud to not be noticed by anyone at this distance, she is not at ease.

Ramune understood Loki’s feelings.

No one will be able to understand their mind without seeing it for themselves.

Swoop-

Suddenly, Loki grabbed Ramune’s hand.

When Ramune flinched, he began writing on his palm.

You could do it verbally, or you could send a message since it was already ‘connected’, but Loki was extremely reluctant to use external or divine power at this moment.

Lamune understood this as well.

“Did you get a call from Martin?”

“yes.”

『Reply? Did I tell you that you found the king?”

『No, I will send the message when my thoughts are organized.』

“why?”

“As soon as I send a message, I think it will be found out. It doesn’t feel good.”

The moment you send a message, it will be noticed.

Once caught, you won’t be able to escape.

So it was Lamune’s idea that there was only one chance to send a message.

“So what are you going to send?”

『I think I should inform you that I have found the king. After all, that was our mission.”

『If I tell you? Can Martin kill that thing? I don’t think you can win even if you bring all the other Martins and transcendentalists?”

Lamune also thought so, but the problem was that there were no other options.

『Then what should I do?』

『I wonder if it would be better to plan for the future.』

『Do we have a future after that? I don’t think I’ll ever get another chance.”

Even now, an endless line continues toward the hole. It is not the number of heads that can endure to the end.

“Right. There is no way. I have no choice but to leave it to Martin.”

Other than believing Martin, there was no other way.

“Then I will send it now.”

Ramune activated his authority.

I sent Martin a message as privately and briefly as possible.

“found.”

At that moment, the king opened his eyes.

The timing is too creepy to be coincidental.

They said that there is no way to go wrong with a foreboding feeling, and it was exactly the same this time.

Seruk-

The king’s head turned.

His gaze was clearly directed to the place where Lamune and Loki were.

‘sh*t!’

That moment,

Crisp-

Illusion was finely shattered. Even though all the king did was stare.

As the illusion broke, Loki crouched down and coughed up blood.

[Do, run away… … .]

Lamune, who was shocked, unconsciously opened the door at Loki’s words.

You can see Roden’s sanctuary beyond the door.

‘This crazy!’

That was an obvious mistake.

Since I was so distracted, I reflexively made a door to the place I usually thought was the safest place, and that place was Roden’s sanctuary.

Lammune gritted his teeth at the sight of Roden looking this way with shaky eyes from beyond the door.

‘It’s better.’

If I had made a door into where Martin was, hope would have been completely lost.

Ramune supported Loki and reached for the door, reaching out his hand.

squeak-

An ominous yet sharp sound was heard.

“… … ?”

The outstretched arm is not visible. The door leading to Roden’s sanctuary also disappeared.

As the door disappeared, the arm inside it was also severed.

The pain came late.

“Ah!”

This isn’t the first time I’ve had an arm cut off.

However, the pain Ramune felt now was on a different level from what he had experienced so far.

It felt like not just an arm being cut off, but a soul being ripped off.

At that moment, my eyes flashed.

After a while, when his vision returned, Ramune realized that his position had changed.

‘Mi, crazy… … .’

I carefully turned my head.

I did not believe it, but the king was right in front of me.

“Suck!”

Upon meeting the king’s eyes, an indescribable shock hits.

The shock was so great that I even forgot the pain for a moment.

I couldn’t even look away, let alone move my body.

All Lamune could do was tremble.

In the silence, the king opened his mouth.

[It’s not bad. great.]

The king’s voice was very clear.

Did you know that fish cannot live in excessively clear water? Ramune was just like that now. The king’s voice was not something one could hear with a sane mind.

‘no… … .’

My mind goes blank. It feels like my brain has become a blank slate. I can’t even think about it, let alone be hostile. Feeling deprived of all freedom.

The king, who had been looking into Ramune’s eyes for a moment, raised one corner of his mouth.

[I see, you guys are not fake.]

The king raised his hand.

Hwaaa-

The power of Lamune was automatically activated, and something appeared in front of him like a hologram.

[like… … .]

It was the contact list of ‘Connection’ that had only been visible to Lamune until now.

The king didn’t even bring out the power of Lamune, he made it a reality.

[That’s interesting.]

Wang waved his hand like turning the pages of a book, and the contact list screen began to switch.

Eyes that fell naturally as the king’s eyes turned to the hologram.

Ramune came back to his senses, and he also knew what the king was doing.

‘I’m looking for Martin.’

Ramune bit his lip tightly.

‘I won’t let it go like that.’

I started to focus.

Before the king could find Martin, he had to release the power.

However, the results revealed were disappointing.

I couldn’t even make contact, let alone release it.

The Authority ‘Connection’ was already completely out of the control of Lamune.

[Hmm.]

The king’s hand stopped.

『Second Martin.』

『The third martin.』

『Fourth Martin.』

You see a list of over a hundred Martins.

The king turned his head to Lamune. Ramune managed to close his eyes before their eyes met.

the king asked without hesitation.

[Where is the first martin? Is there a hidden feature? Hmmm, that’s not it.]

Of course, there was no such thing as a hidden function.

In the first place, only Lamune could see the contact list, so why did they create such a function?

The reason why there is no first martin is that martin was not saved because it was martin in the first place.

‘thank god.’

Martin’s contact name is ‘fun junior’.

The king will not be able to pinch and find it.

[Which one of these is real?]

In response to the king’s question, Ramune kept his mouth shut.

‘I will never tell you.’

However, Lamune’s mouth was half open at the king’s words.

[Well, it doesn’t matter. If you take it out, it will appear someday.]

Breaking Ramune’s composure, the king waved his hand in the air.

ugh-

External forces fluctuated, and light burst out.

‘Unbelievable… … .’

There, the strongest Martin, his eyes wide open as if surprised, appeared.
