Damn Necromancer

Chapter 403: Higher God (6)

The corners of his mouth, which had been relaxed until just a moment ago, drew a chilly arc.

“If one has become a true god in name and reality, it is only right to personally look after the pitiful, persecuted believers.”

Of course, the sin of touching the profits those pitiful believers would offer was the greatest.

It was exactly the moment Kim Minwoo was about to leap through dimensions.

The hologram communicator, which he had just coldly cut off, began to emit light again along with an ear-piercing warning sound.

Ppibibibik―!!

[Ultra-emergency direct reconnection request!]

“Seriously annoying.”

As Kim Minwoo clicked his tongue tteut and pressed the accept button, the leader of Ares appeared beyond the screen lying flat on the floor. The beaming appearance from gaining eternal life was nowhere to be found, and he was trembling like an aspen tree as if the universe would perish tomorrow.

“D-Death Lord! Please do not cut off the communication! The universe is about to be finished!”

“I went through the trouble of keeping you alive, but the wailing never stops. What is it now.”

“L-look at that screen! The beast is currently swallowing the main resource planet of the Tartarus star system whole!”

Along with the leader's wail, the hologram screen was forcibly switched, and the tragedy of the Tartarus star system was broadcast in real-time.

A dark-colored cosmic horror-class monster consisting of tens of thousands of tentacles and a massive maw, wrapping entirely around a massive planet.

Every time the beast opened its maw wide, the dimension collapsed, and the planet's crust was torn off in hundreds of kilometers.

Tens of thousands of the Galaxy Alliance's state-of-the-art stellar fleets surrounding it fired their main guns in unison, but they crumpled like sheets of paper and turned into space junk from a single gravity wave spewed by Apocalypse.

“It's over……! The disaster of the galaxy has opened its eyes! Our fleet cannot even leave a scratch! The universe will perish!”

The leader of Poseidon screamed while tearing at his hair. The other leaders were also in despair, having lost their minds. Even those who ruled the universe were helplessly powerless in front of this overwhelming dimensional predator.

However, the reaction of Kim Minwoo, who was watching that terrible sight of the apocalypse, was completely different.

His gaze was fixed solely on the text floating in the corner of the screen: Tartarus star system, Main Resource Planet.

“Huh? Wait a minute.”

Kim Minwoo's eyebrows twitched.

“If that's the Tartarus star system…… isn't that the core infrastructure sector you guys just decided to hand over to me?”

“Y-yes! That's correct, but…… that is not the problem right now!”

“Not the problem my foot, you frustrating old man!”

Kim Minwoo shouted as if he was dumbfounded.

“That beast is currently gnawing away entirely at the asset that just transferred into my ownership!”

The leaders doubted their ears for a moment.

A cosmic disaster that would swallow the galaxy had descended, yet the words coming out of his mouth were worries about his assets being destroyed.

Were those the words of an absolute who had just been promoted to a Higher God?

“Any bastard who crawls into my territory without permission and leaves a scratch on my assets, whether it's a cosmic disaster or whatever, better know they won't even be able to recover their bones.”

Kim Minwoo's pupils sank chillingly.

Now, this galaxy was a territory completely under his feet.

An irreverent beast that dared to recklessly stick its snout into the possessions of a Higher God had to be definitely cleared away.

“How dare you shove your dirty feet into someone else's place of business without the owner's permission.”

Kwaaaaang―!

The Tartarus star system.

The megacorps' ships were crumpling like popcorn cans and causing chain explosions from the gravity waves spewed by Apocalypse. In the middle of a battlefield filled only with despair, space distorted, and a man wearing a pitch-black coat descended.

It was Kim Minwoo.

“Keuaaaaaa!”

Detecting Kim Minwoo's appearance, Apocalypse extended tens of thousands of tentacles and let out a bizarre roar.

The aura of an overwhelming predator that crushed planets.

It was a cosmic horror where even an ordinary Lower God would step back, suppressed by its spirit.

However, Kim Minwoo snorted and roughly undid the Belt of the Death Lord at his waist.

Paaaaat―!!

A pitch-black gate extending from the belt covered outer space in hundreds of kilometers.

And massive shadows endlessly pouring out from within. It was the cyber Dragon Tooth Soldier legion, plastered with the best physical resources and quantum cores of the galaxy, and fully tuned with the Mana Neural Network.

―We greet our Lord.

The four Legion Commanders standing at the vanguard of that legion.

From their bodies, transcendent mana that could not even be compared to the past was spewing out like a storm.

As their Lord, Kim Minwoo, rose in status to a Higher God, the Legion Commanders, whose souls were bound to him, also received that massive stat buff intact.

“Tear it apart in a single breath. If my infrastructure gets even one more scratch, know that I'll deduct it from your maintenance costs.”

As soon as Kim Minwoo's chilling command dropped, the undead legion, buffed by a Higher God, began to run wild.

―It is the Master's command. Pay for the sin of daring to leave a scratch on the Master's property with death!

The first to dart out was Cedric.

The blood-red spear held in his hand burned like the prominence of a star.

Kwagagagang―!

The red trajectory that crossed outer space pierced through Apocalypse's thick outer shell in a single breath.

The shell that was unyielding even to the main gun of a battleship was torn apart like a sheet of paper.

―Stupid monster. I said you'll be scolded if you steal and eat Minwoo's things. Break all apart!

Merhen deployed hundreds of multiple magic circles in the empty air. Having borrowed the calculation power of the quantum core, her casting speed had already transcended limits.

The planetary-class magic bombardment ground Apocalypse's tentacles like a blender.

―Kuhahaha! A mere bug with a big body dares! I'll roast you thoroughly to the bone!

Adding the finishing touch to this, Vulcan, who had transformed into a massive mechanical fortress, mercilessly poured out anti-fleet plasma heavy weapons wrapped in black flames.

―Oh my. It's so big, it'll be worth slicing up and eating.

The Formless Sword of Olivia, who popped out from the shadows, mercilessly slaughtered Apocalypse's blind spots with an invisible trajectory.

An overwhelming raid combining the firepower of machines, the destructive power of magic, and a Higher God's divinity.

The dimensional predator beast, called a disaster that would destroy the galaxy, was unilaterally beaten in just 3 minutes and was scattering pitch-black bodily fluids in outer space.

“Kieeeek―!!”

Unable to endure, Apocalypse attempted a final desperate struggle. Inside its massive maw, a pitch-black sphere that sucked in even light—a dimensional predation like a black hole—began to deploy.

A desperate crisis where surrounding ship debris and meteorites were sucked in in an instant. However, Kim Minwoo leisurely readjusted his grip on Hell Rhapsody.

“If you picked up and ate someone else's, you should naturally pay the price.”

Kim Minwoo put strength into the hand gripping Hell Rhapsody.

The dense energy of death, which had been blooming like a haze from his fingertips, began to condense terrifyingly over the blue blade of his demonic sword. It was the absolute authority of destruction he obtained by molting into a Higher God, which made even inanimate objects decay into ash-colored powder.

Paaaat―!

Kim Minwoo swung Hell Rhapsody roughly.

A chilling pitch-black trajectory cleaving through the vacuum of the galaxy plunged straight toward the black hole expanding in Apocalypse's maw.

The pitch-black death mana that tore through space collided head-on with the center of the black hole.

At that moment, a bizarre thing happened.

Uuuung―!

Puseuseuseu…….

The overwhelming vortex of gravity that sucked in everything twisted like a beast that had swallowed a fatal poison, and then from its edges, it crumbled and began to scatter into ash-colored powder.

As its sure-kill move decayed and collapsed, Apocalypse was astonished and rolled its gross eyes.

In front of those massive pupils, Kim Minwoo, who had leaped through space before it knew it, was right up close.

“Do you know how much the infrastructure cost you smashed is?”

Kim Minwoo indifferently declared while raising Hell Rhapsody high.

“If you don't have the ability to spit it back out, you should pay it off with that gross body of yours at least.”

Seogeok―!

A chilling sound of cleaving air splitting the vacuum of the galaxy.

The blade of Hell Rhapsody, imbued with the mana of a Higher God, sliced off Apocalypse's massive neck in a single breath.

The head of the beast, which was larger than a planet, floated in outer space. It was the vain and terrible end of a cosmic horror that had been crying out for the destruction of the universe just a moment ago.

“Tsk. A guy who's only big but lacks substance.”

Kim Minwoo scanned the hacked corpse of Apocalypse while shaking off the blade of Hell Rhapsody.

“Wait, this bone structure is quite usable, isn't it?”

Kim Minwoo nodded as if interested while knocking on Apocalypse's massive bones.

‘If it's the bones of a dimensional predator beast that eats planets…… the durability alone would be killer. If I fuse this with a Dragon Tooth Soldier and lay down a Mana Neural Network, wouldn't a genuine space battleship-class summon come out? This will be more than enough to cover the broken infrastructure cost.’

A Necromancer who calculated only efficiency and the acquisition of new assets even after handling a cosmic disaster.

And the 4 megacorp leaders, who watched this entire raid process in real-time through the hologram, were now gaping with their jaws practically touching the floor.

‘Nonsense…….’

The Ares leader grabbed his neck with a trembling hand.

In the past, it was a disaster that the galaxy's united fleet could barely seal away even after sacrificing hundreds of millions of people.

But that monster, solely for the reason of leaving a scratch on his assets, butchered the beast in just 10 minutes and was calculating the cost-effectiveness of the spoils.

‘What were we…… daring to do.’

The leaders knelt on trembling knees and planted their foreheads perfectly on the floor.

Now, not even 1 nanometer of rebellion or ulterior motives toward the Death Lord remained in them.

That existence was real.

An absolute ruler who descended upon this Galaxy, whom they could not defy.

Inside the empty executive offices of the leaders, only the rough breaths of the old capitalists who had commanded the universe and the silence of desperate submission settled heavily.

It was the moment the Death Lord's conquest of the universe became more solid than ever.
