Chapter 464: Star, Identity Establishment (2)

Paaaah!

As the dry sand gales continued to blow, the Past Life Castle, the lofty building where Chang-Suns past reincarnations lived, stood alone. When Chang-Sun tried to enter, two guards with tall knight helmets stopped him, crossing each others spears.

You cant enter without permission.

Anyone who wishes to enter the castle has to prove themself.

The guards voices were emotionless, and there was no trace of fear as they watched Chang-Sun with sharp gazes. Judging from each ones single gleaming eye and the lightning sparks flying up from their armor and spearheads, they seemed to be quite high-ranked within the castle.

Chang-Sun could not help but chuckle.

Why are you laughing? one of the guards asked as he glared at Chang-Sun, perhaps because his pride was hurt.

Its ridiculous, Chang-Sun replied.

Ridiculous?

You dont know who I am?

Of course not. Youre Lee Chang-Sun and have the Divine Name Divine Twilight.

But you still stopped me from entering the castle.

No one can pass without proving themself. The guard shook his head.

You opened the gate for me last time.

Its different now.

How so? Chang-Sun raised a brow.

You were invited by the Four Kings at the time.

The Four Kings seemed to refer to the Past Life Castles four rulersOdin, Balor, Tomte, and Perkwunos.

But you dont have an invitation this time, so of course, I cant open the gate, The guard continued.

Balor died in a fight against me. So cant I be considered one of those Four Kings or something?

Its none of my concern. Prove yourself, the guard repeated.

Chang-Sun briefly considered wreaking havoc right then and there before concluding, No, not yet. I need to talk things out first.

As someone who was trying to enter the castle, he had to follow their rules on some level. Thus, he asked, Fine. How do I prove myself?

Schwing, schwing!

The guards pointed their spears at Chang-Sun.

The castles entrance trial consists of three stages. The first stage is to prove your martial prowess by defeating us.

Just then

Ding!

[A Scenario Quest (Identity Search ) has been created!]

[Identity Search ]

Type: Scenario.

Description: You are currently witnessing your souls secrets in your subconscious realm, but you are an uninvited guest. Your past reincarnations wish to test you with three trials.

From now on, you must pass all three trials to prove yourself and face your souls secrets. If you succeed, you will be able to awaken to your complete self as your souls true owner.

The first trial is to prove your martial prowess. The castles two guards happen to be your second and third past reincarnations. Win a victory against them.

Time limit: Until one party wins.

He pushed away supreme sacred light and , Chang-Sun thought as he looked at the guards in disbelief.

From what he knew, those Divinities were the origin of origins that superseded everything, since they were the powers of and respectively. On top of that, Chang-Sun had used the two Divinities to create a new type of energy called .

Using that energy required a lot of calculations, so controlling it was not easy. Regardless, Chang-Sun had been confident that it was matchless when it came to destructive power but his attack was blocked for the first time, which was a great surprise even for him.

Im sure you know who we are through the Quest description, the blue lightning guard said as his sapphire eyes gleamed coldly. Were the guards who have been protecting this realm while watching you reincarnations run wild like mad dogs, all because you people think youre the best.

Those reincarnations usually look down on us. But protecting this castle is our duty and weve gotten used to the contempt, so it means nothing to us. But we still occasionally get annoyed once in a while, the red lightning guard added, revealing his sharp canines.

The guards looked like twins, even their auras resembling each other.

Chang-Sun came to a realization. They werent alike from the start. They took after each other in both appearance and techniques over time.

Before their deaths, the two guards had to have had unique personalities and characteristics of their own, but that distinctiveness faded over time, as they had upheld their duty for so long. Their job was simply too monotonous, so they could not fulfill it without a strong sense of duty, deepening their bond.

They watched most of the reincarnations' entire lives, Chang-Sun thought, then changed his assessment of the guards completely. Theyre clearly stronger than Balor.

Chang-Sun had to forget about the Four Kings, since those titles were created by the most presumptuous reincarnations to assert dominance. These guards were the true warriors in his soul, so earning their recognition was a threshold he had to pass in order to become the true owner of his soul.

I didnt think I would immediately run into a problem in my first trial, though.

Still, Chang-Sun felt good about the fact he had past reincarnations, aside from Odin and Perkwunos, that were as powerful as those guards.

It might have been boring if I conquered the realm without a hitch.

Before resuming their fight, Chang-Sun wanted to know exactly who those guards were. He asked, What are your names?

It was an ancient ritual, where warriors who recognized each others skills introduced themselves to commemorate their deceased opponents after the battle.

Lets see the blue lightning guard trailed off with a shrug.

Do you remember your name? Chang-Sun asked.

No, I dont. I havent thought of such a thing for a very long time.

Me too. The red lightning guard looked at Chang-Sun. Well, we forgot our names long ago.

The guards exchanged glances and shook their heads; Chang-Sun chuckled. The guards had forgotten about their names, rather than losing them. People on their level were usually very prideful, but that did not seem to apply to them. They were pure martial artistsno, Martial Celestials. In that case, Chang-Sun needed to pay them the respect they deserved.

Im Lee Chang-Sun. My Divine Name is Divine Twilight. Ill never forget about you two after defeating you, Chang-Sun said with a smile.

Not expecting Chang-Suns response, the guards looked at each other with wide eyes, then chuckled.

We did think that you were cocky, but your arrogance is beyond our wildest imaginations.

You believe that you can not only pass the trial, but also kill us, huh?

Okay, then.

Lets see what youve got.

Booooom!

The guards simultaneously sprang forward.

Paaaah!

Swooosh!

They turned into blue and red lightning rays respectively and attacked Chang-Sun from both sides.

Rummmmble!

At the same time, the guards unleashed a rain of blue and red lightning bolts. In response, Chang-Sun leaped high in the air and leaned forward, spinning as he clawed the ground with the [Yuchang Sword] and [Tiamats Snaggletooth].

[The Authority Avatar's Descent has been activated, securing the area!]

[The Authority Dream-Eating Beast has been activated, firing the first and second claws!]

Slaaaash!
