Overlord of Blood and Iron

“This...!” Kang Chul-In was shocked. “So easily?”

Han Ye-Sun passed him the ring without any resistance.

“Because you need it, Oppa.”

“But...”

“I can give you everything.”

“...!”

“Whatever it is.”

Kang Chul-In was lost for words. What followed shocked him even more...

“I gave you my heart and body long ago, anyway.”

“Ahem...!”

“I’ve never gotten anything back. I don’t plan to ask either.”

That was her true feelings.

I love you... Oppa.

She had never forgotten Kang Chul-In for even a second. She didn’t wish to, even after he became a villain with three wives.

“...”

Kang Chul-In kept silent as he didn’t know what to do.

Then he stepped forward.

“If you are not leaving, then step aside. You will get hurt.”

He was in the middle of a fight. Saturnus was the strongest enemy that he had met in his entire lifetime, a nemesis whom even Kang Chul-In couldn’t guarantee a win against without some luck.

“Kek... kekeke...!” Saturnus snickered. “Interesting... very interesting... kek... keke...!”

“What’s so interesting?”

Kang Chul-In gave Saturnus an unpleasant look. Kang Chul-In knew why that crazy bastard had left him and Han Ye-Sun alone for a while. It was because Saturnus was confident that he could toy with and kill Kang Chul-In at any moment!

“Is it so interesting?”

“Why wouldn’t it be, son?”

“...?”

“Including that girl over there...” Saturnus pointed at Han Ye-Sun. “Wouldn’t it be fun if I toyed with you in front of all your women, and then boiled you to death in a cauldron? How about your kids? Do you want me to fry or dissect them from head to toe? Kek, kekeke... Wait, no... I should cook and put them on your dinner table as your last meal. Hehe... hehehe...!”

Lunacy. Saturnus was spouting words that were not meant to be spoken. Moreover, the fact that he genuinely meant what he said made it even more sickening. In fact, he was sharing his own experience. This insane demon was an unprecedented psychopath.

“...”

Kang Chul-In did not reply to Saturnus. Words were useless. Instead, fists were the better means of communication.

Tap tap! He began to walk towards Saturnus. At the same time, he placed the Sonic Ring on his finger.

[Obtained the Sonic Ring!]

There was a notification.

[Epic] Sonic Ring

Equipment type: Accessory (Ring)

Durability: 100/100

Option 1: HP +500

Option 2: Mana +500

Option 3: Attack power +200

Option 4: Muscle strength +500

Option 5: Agility +1000

* Cool time: 240 hours

The options were fantastic, as expected from a member of the Trinity Impact.

Light.

Kang Chul-In could feel his body become lighter. This seemed to be the reason behind Brynhildr’s – no, Han Ye-Sun’s – lightspeed sword.

That aside,

[Trinity Impact, complete!]

A notification that he had collected all three items also popped up.

[Set item effect]

Trinity Impact: For one attack, increase in physical * magical attack power +1000% / critical hit rate +50% / Accuracy +50%

* Cool time: 8,760 hours

Kang Chul-In finally obtained it... the absolute power, enough to even kill a god!

However,

Not now.

Kang Chul-In could not use the Trinity Force unfortunately.

It complicates things if I use it here.

He had to refrain from using his new-found ability. Kang Chul-In was currently planning for the second coming of the Agnagas, and the Trinity Force was one of his trump cards. For that matter, Saturnus was an ‘unexpected variable’, which wasn’t in his original plan.

In that case...

Clench! Kang Chul-In gripped Mitra and Kaiforce tightly.

“Let me tear open that mouth of yours.”

Immediately, Kang Chul-In charged at Saturnus.

***

The north of Pangea, in a large underground hall in Shatyameba...

“With this, I...”

Lee Ji-Tae – no, Cereb the great mind of Agnaga – mumbled to himself. Cereb looked absolutely hideous and bizarre. He had a huge brain. More massive than an advertising balloon, it dangled from an underground structure. Tens of thousands of wires linked the brain to communication devices.

“...Can form the army...!”

Cereb, who had become one with this underground structure known as the ‘Agnaga Sanctuary’, awakened his true abilities.

Pzzt, pzzzzt!

Sparks began to fly from the wires connected to his enormous brain, and the communication devices began to broadcast on an unknown frequency.

Cereb infused his sinister ideology into the frequency.

Shockingly, Cereb was infecting the Shatyameba inhabitants with the Agnaga virus through a special frequency only known to the Agnaga. Even the most advanced technology on Earth couldn’t do that.

“Urgh, urghhh...!”

“A-Arghhhh...!”

“M-My body... keuk... urgh...”

“Kek, kekeke...!”

The Shatyameba inhabitants were helplessly infected by the virus. They then began to evolve due to genetic mutation. Long ago, something similar happened in Nosferatu.

Cereb did not stop there. Not only did he connect to the infected victims,

But he also gained access to their brains, which allowed him to see, hear and feel all kinds of data in real time. There was only one reason for this. Cereb planned to control all the Agnaga soldiers simultaneously. Through this, Cereb could unite the whole of Agnaga under a single influence, a hive mind. That was why he was called the great mind and commander of Agnaga. With a brain that can process information like a supercomputer, Cereb could command his army using ‘perfect strategies’ and ‘perfect battle tactics,’ making it invincible.

From this moment onwards, the infected Shatyameba inhabitants would relentlessly attack the Valhalla Kingdom.

Kang Chul-In...!

He recalled his nemesis.

I’m taking my revenge now... just wait. The Agnaga army shall trample on your land!

The second coming of Agnaga coupled with his revenge for Alex Rothschild were about to commence.

***

Kang Chul-In decided to go all out.

[Activate Overpower!] [Activate Amplify!] [Activate Hyper-speed!]

Not only did he activate all three items in the Trinity Impact set, action

Pzzzzzt, pzzzzzzzzt! But he also immediately entered the fourth phase of Overdrive.

[Amplify Brain Power!]

Moreover, he activated the Oraclomind to enhance his sensory abilities to the maximum.

Too many conditions... what a pity.

Kang Chul-In smacked his lips.

[Full Moon], [Spellthirst] and [Violent Storms].

It would be great if he could use all the buffs he possessed in his arsenal. However, none of the buffs could be activated due to their conditions. Although, that wasn’t to say that the situation was dire.

Clang, clang! Kang Chul-In could now fight on-par with the ancient tyrant.

Kaiforce shapeshifted into a metal chain and wrapped around Saturnus’ neck.

“Keuk...!”

“Let me rip it apart.”

With that,

Grip! Kang Chul-In strongly pulled Kaiforce towards his body to rip Saturnus’ neck apart.

“...!”

Saturnus flinched from the pain of the saw tooth digging into his skin.

“Keuk... bastard! Getting better, aren’t you?”

“Shut up and die!”

Kang Chul-In gripped Kaiforce even tighter.

Rip, rip!

With the sound of skin tearing, blood began to drip down from Saturnus’ neck.

What the fuck...! Kang Chul-In was appalled. So little damage?

Anyone else would have had his head sliced off immediately. This demon, however, only had a small cut on his neck. How durable was his body?

Let’s see if you can handle this.

Kang Chul-In began to make his move.

Flash! He charged at Saturnus with incredible speed and positioned himself at his blind spot.

Just when Saturnus was caught off guard,

Flick, psshhh!

Kaiforce, now a gimlet, landed below Saturnus’ ribs, and a vortex followed.

Whooooshhh! The whirlwind that could rip even metal apart began to form around Saturnus’ body.

More!

Kang Chul-In refused to stop. He couldn’t. Desdemona the Ancient Black Dragon could withstand this attack too.

Saturnus wouldn’t suffer heavily from this attack, so Kang Chul-In needed an additional attack to land a critical blow.

“Keuk...!” Suddenly, Saturnus laughed. “You dare? Keuk...!”

He moved at a speed comparable to Kang Chul-In and ‘perfectly’ dodged the additional attack.

Bangggg! He then flung a horrifying punch at Kang Chul-In’s face.

I can’t survive this!

Kang Chul-In instinctively knew that he would die instantly if he got hit. That punch had devastating power, enough to demolish a skyscraper in one shot...

I guess there’s only one way...

He decided to whip out his trump card, and that wasn’t the Trinity Impact. It was the ability that made him the strongest and worst Overlord in his previous life. He had to use it, now!

Before the effects of the three items of the Trinity Impact ended!

Pzzzt, pzzzzzzzzzzzt! An incredible amount of electricity was discharged from Kang Chul-In’s body.

Outrage Drive, the 5th and final phase of Overdrive...

The strongest, most extreme secret move was about to make its appearance!
