I rely on myself

Chapter 83: Awakening

"Although I can't stretch the thread for a long distance like you do, I can still do it if I just attach it to an object. Because our spirit equipment is all thread, I can attach my own spirit equipment to yours, and use the ability of "Containment" to absorb the will and magic power you send to manipulate others."

After hearing what Lin Yuan said, Ogiger's first reaction was disbelief, but he quickly calmed down and thought about it carefully. According to the current situation, only Lin Yuan's statement could explain why his ability was ineffective.

After realizing this, Ogiger also realized that he was indeed powerless to turn the situation around.

"Is that so? What a pity! I wanted to continue playing games with you, but I didn't expect you to interrupt me like this. It's really sad. We were having so much fun before."

After hearing these shameless words, Lin Yuan had to admit that the other party was really good at disgusting people.

Lin Yuan did not answer, but just looked at the other person talking nonsense with a look as if he was looking at garbage.

Soon, Ogiger felt that he was the only one talking and Lin Yuan would not respond to him at all, so he felt bored and stopped these disgusting words.

"Well, really, Lin Yuan, it's boring that you don't respond at all. I can't help it. I will leave this time, but please don't worry."

When he said this, Ogiger's voice suddenly became low and he spoke with a creepy feeling.

"Next time, I will prepare better games to entertain you. I will make you show a desperate and wailing expression, and then I will appreciate it carefully. Hahahahahaha?!"

At this time Lin Yuan suddenly spoke.

"You don't think I'll give you another chance under these circumstances."

"Oh, so you're finally not dumb anymore. But how can you deal with me? After all, I'm not afraid to tell you that my real body is not only not near you, but not even in this country. So how can you stop me? Hahahaha!"

After hearing Ogiger's complacent words, Lin Yuan's expression did not change, and he remained as calm as ever.

"Indeed, your true self is not here. After a fight, I have confirmed that you are also a being wandering outside the fate of the planet like me."

After hearing what Lin Yuan said, Ogiger also responded with a happy laugh.

"That's right. Now that you know this, you should understand that you can't find me through the guidance of cause and effect. After all, we are equal beings, hehehehe!"

In a corner of Southeast Asia, inside a tropical rainforest, deep in the towering and dense jungle, there is a Khmer-style ruin covered with vines.

This ruin has long disappeared from the memory of local residents and can only decay step by step.

However, at this moment, in a corner of the ruins, a ray of light leaked out from a window.

That was not fire, but lightning.

It is not the lightning of nature, but the light emitted by modern scientific machines.

Inside the ruins, in a room, piles of screens kept flashing, playing scenes one after another.

These scenes are all images from all over the world. <Puppet King> Ogiger lives in this place, and uses silk threads to control mechanical puppets such as Hiraga Reizumi to wander around the world to satisfy his desires.

And now he was laughing triumphantly after saying this through one of the puppets.

Just when he was feeling proud, a sense of crisis suddenly came over him. He immediately looked around in confusion. Ogiger didn't understand where this sudden sense of crisis came from.

Obviously, he had laid a large number of silk threads around the house where he was now for security, and he was fully confident that no one could step in here without being discovered.

However, the sense of crisis in his heart not only showed no signs of disappearing, but became even more clear. Even the cause and effect that he understood warned him of the crisis at this moment, which made him feel even more terrified.

"Damn it, who is it, who is here, get out now?!"

Of course, Ogiger's bluffing words had no effect. After all, there was no one else around him. So where did the crisis that Ogiger felt come from?
"It seems that you have sensed your own death."

The sudden words immediately attracted all of Ogiger's attention. He turned around and saw that these words came from a screen in front of him. It was one of the puppets he had deployed in a certain island country. It was originally deployed just to complete a certain task.

As a result, he accidentally came across such great material, so Ogiger controlled the puppet and prepared to have some fun. Unexpectedly, the opponent's strength was beyond his imagination, and his own methods were also cracked. Although it was a bit unsatisfactory, Ogiger did not take it too seriously. After all, he had many such puppets.

At worst, he could just prepare better next time and continue playing with the other party. This kind of thing had happened before, so Ogiger didn't care much about it.

But this time, his willful evil finally brought him retribution.

Watching the huge amount of magic power continuously pouring out of the golden figure on the screen, Ogiger clearly felt that death was approaching him.

"W-What on earth do you want to do?!!!"

Back at Pojun Academy, Lin Yuan did not refute after hearing that he could not find the other party.

Instead, he dived into the unknown depths of his heart. The next moment, terrifyingly huge magical power burst out from Lin Yuan's body and turned into a magical storm that swept around.

Seeing Lin Yuan suddenly burst out with such a huge amount of magic power, everyone present felt unbelievable, because whether it was Ikki and others, or the students of Akatsuki Academy, they all knew that Lin Yuan's magic power was only E, so where did such a huge amount of magic power come from?

Only a handful of people in the world know the answer to this question. This is the right of the demon. But even so, the magic power erupting from Lin Yuan is too extraordinary.

The answer is very simple. The so-called "awakening" means that the swordsman transcends his own destiny, causing his soul to transform and become a non-human existence that is not bound by fate. For this reason, this process is also called "beast soul".

However, when the soul becomes a non-human being, can the body, as the container of the soul, continue to maintain the human form?

People have the aforementioned questions about the "Demon", and one of the hypotheses as the answer is... "Salvation Awakening".

After the Demon has experienced the Awakening and overuses its inhuman power, its inhuman soul will begin to affect its body. Finally, its body will change with the soul, becoming a form more suitable for the soul and gaining more powerful power. In return, the Demon will lose its humanity. There are various legends of humanoid monsters around the world, such as sub-humans, demons, or ghosts. Some people believe that these legends may come from the swordsman who has been possessed by the devil.

And what Lin Yuan is using at this moment is the power called "Transcendence Awakening", which completely liberates himself, thereby continuously improving the degree of his own "awakening" and thus gaining more and stronger magic power.
