Karma Shopping (2)
The border area of the Abyss where chaos and emptiness are mixed.
“That’s strange.”
It was a brief sentiment from a revolutionary who watched the progress of recent events.
The assassination of the princess for the division of the empire, the sinking of the enamel continent through the exclusion of the World Tree, the division of mankind due to the tribal alliance’s northward advance, and even the realization of the Immortal King, who thought he had already succeeded.
The operations that started simultaneously were twisted to the point of being strange.
To the extent that it feels artificial and malicious intervention, as if someone is deliberately interfering.
‘Well, it must have been too easy up until now.’
The task he pursues is against the will of the Lord God, the creator of this world.
I never thought that things would work out so easily from the start.
For that reason, he had thoroughly prepared in advance by hiding in the darkness of the world for a long time…
It seems that this level of preparation was not enough.
‘Still, I haven’t gained anything at all.’
It was heartbreaking to see that long effort go in vain, but at least it was much better than the previous plans that were stranded without even starting.
Because it was able to satisfy the minimal usefulness of causing enormous human casualties and causing chaos while at the same time gnawing away at the power of the world.
‘It’s there…’
That was not the only thing gained through a series of recent events.
“Her! Just in case you did I can’t deny it any longer.”
It’s not certain.
In fact, I had been dubious about it for quite some time, but now it seemed to be almost certain.
As the vanguard of the abyss, the Immortal King who should take the lead in covering the world with death—
That he had an unknown secret relationship with the saint of the main church, who was no different from his nemesis.
“Puhehehe, what is this absurd thing?”
Others on the continent couldn’t even imagine, let alone doubt, but he, who knew the Immortal King better than anyone else, was able to judge the situation more objectively.
What he thought was impossible actually happened.
‘The main god… What the hell did he do?’
Using the Immortal King was a plan that went smoothly even a thousand years ago or three hundred years ago.
Thanks to that, didn’t he even succeed in eliminating the dragons, which were the biggest hindrance to the Great World?
But, of course, this kind of thing is happening now that we have entered the final stage.
‘The biggest variable these days is… After all, the ones with the highest probability are aliens?’
The revolutionary who had closed his eyes and lost his thoughts quickly came to a conclusion and frowned.
An impurity of this world that came from another dimension with a fast growth rate and unique abilities.
After he figured out their existence, he captured them and used them in various ways, as well as experimenting with them alive.
Then, after realizing that they were just humans with a little special ability, and that they were strangers who were about to leave, I didn’t care much.
Perhaps he had underestimated their potential too much.
‘…However, I don’t think a mere mortal can overcome the death of the abyss and intervene in it. No, this is just a hypothesis, so hasty judgments are prohibited.’
What you need to think about right now is what to do next.
As long as the Immortal King, who had been the best option after all, was unexpectedly showing a lukewarm appearance, he had no choice but to choose the next best option…
The problem was that the current progress of the method was also not very satisfactory.
‘The progress of saturation of madness is slower than expected. How many giants have been sent to the surface in the meantime, but it’s still only this much.’
The revolutionary turned his gaze to the crouching human figure next to him, then frowned.
The essential condition for the second best solution was that the concentration of madness in the world exceeded a certain critical point, but it still seemed to take quite some time to reach the target from the current state.
‘That savage… What on earth is he?’
This happened because some savage with the saint ate up the enormous madness that should have spread to the world if everything was original.
Didn’t he catch the flow of even the madness that had been scattered in the air lately swirling around him and being sucked in?
This, like the situation of the Immortal King, was an incomprehensible article.
‘Still, the overall saturation is steadily increasing, but the time wasted because of that one guy is too much. I want to deal with him first, but…’
The timing is right as he is separated from the death squad and remains alone in the south.
However, the problem was that now that most of the forces under his control had collapsed, he did not have the strength to deal with such a strong man.
It didn’t seem like it would be solved by sending a few giants who weren’t fully awakened, and he was in a position where he couldn’t move easily.
“Tsk, I guess I need to buy some more time.”
It was difficult for the continent to stabilize so quickly when the plan had not yet gone through.
The rampage of the monsters and the attack of the white giant continued to happen, but it was not enough.
With the Immortal King withdrawing from the South, the Immortal Army’s air raids all over the continent were also infrequent.
‘Then···.’
Then the strange light turned the young revolutionary’s gaze—to one of the many cracks in the distorted space surrounding him.
A place that started at the same time as operations in other regions, but proceeds quietly without much fuss externally due to its unique secrecy.
To the Republic of Zefia in the eastern part of the Ion continent.

“Hmm.”
To be honest, I was a little worried.
I even used dragon hearts at most, but I’m afraid that some kind of ‘Yongin’, the race that Harley disguised itself, will be made.
Of course, it wasn’t that Yongin was bad, but since there was a considerable difference in rank from the real dragon, I couldn’t help feeling like an old woman.
Not one or two pennies went into this.
‘Even though it was just a matter of reason.’
Fortunately, the race created was definitely a dragon.
‘But···.’
And I am now
I was looking at the finally born avatar with my arms crossed.
Lower your gaze slightly.
The dragon avatar also stared blankly at the body.
Raise your gaze slightly upwards.
‘I did, by any chance.’
There is no need to compare, there is a clear difference in eye level.
I stared at the golden creature in front of me, a dragon the size of a large dog, shining in the fluorescent light.
Where did the spirited and dignified head that had been painstakingly refined through [Customization] go? A small baby dragon with a round and cute impression was looking up at me with a sullen expression.
‘No, now that I think about it, it’s fortunate that I didn’t go all the way to the egg.’
Unlike elves and dwarves, who have a longer lifespan than humans, but only hundreds of years, dragons are known to live up to 10,000 years.
Since I am still 20 years old, no matter how much the [Customization] skill covers a certain part, it must have been difficult to create a Jackie Chan from the beginning.
Even dragons are a race that gets stronger in proportion to their age.
It was only natural that such a result came out, since the power of the avatar at the beginning of creation had limitations.
“Karlung!”
He was unable to speak yet due to the structure of his oral cavity, which was not suitable for using human language, but once he got used to his new body, he could solve it by using magic.
I nodded my head in satisfaction as I examined the individual information of the new dragon avatar, Horus.
＜Object information＞
From noble mtl dot com
-Entity Name: Horus
-Type: Dragon (Hatchling)
– Common Attributes: 「Mind Hub」, 「Persona」, 「Xenoglossy」
– Individual Attributes: 「Gold Dragon」, 「Ruler of all things」, 「Polymorph」, 「Dragon Magic」
-Special item: Seonghyun Han’s 11th avatar. The dragon heart of the gold dragon hatchling was used as a medium. It is still only a hatchling, but its growth potential is unmatched.
‘Is it because I used an expensive medium after all?’
As many as four initial skills.
The only skill I chose additionally was [Dragon Word Magic], and the other three were basically given abilities from the creation stage.
What’s unusual is that all the skills obtained by strengthening the stats, from “Super Recovery” To “Eye of Wisdom”, Were incorporated into the ability of “Gold Dragon” At the same time as the avatar was created.
[Gold Dragon] was a skill that further strengthened the racial characteristics of dragons, such as excellent physical ability, perception, and exorcism.
[Ruler of all things] was a skill that assisted with mana and other attributes such as affinity and resistance.
[Polymorph] was a transformation ability that allowed dragons to live in the form of other races and mix with them.
‘This is worth the investment. In addition, I was able to get [Dragon Word Magic] that Hatchling would never have dreamed of.’
Dragon language is a language-based ability that embodies phenomena, and along with breath, it was one of the abilities that represent dragons.
However, both of those abilities were not allowed to Hatchling as an infant, but I was able to obtain one of them with the function of ‘choosing one of three random skills’.
‘I was lucky. Even if it comes later, there is no guarantee that you will be able to learn from someone, and even if you do, it will take a very long time.’
Now that I had acquired the skill, I could clearly see the knowledge needed to activate it.
If I had to learn this entirely by learning, it would have taken at least ten years even after all the corrections were overlapped.
The difficulty of learning itself and the difficulty of the structure were incomparable to the [Introduction to Magic] that Hesperon had learned.
‘It takes a while to be a hatchling, but since I’ll be doing my activities in human form anyway, it won’t matter much for the time being. Because Horus has a [Polymorph].’
Now was the time to check it out.
My gaze turned to Horus, who was walking around the living room checking his condition with his small body.
“Quaang!”
And at the same time a dainty roar came out of that mouth.
Faaat—
The body covered in golden scales was enveloped in a soft light, and the shape slowly began to change.
At one point, he became a human being who stood up on his own two feet.
It is also so enchanting that anyone can’t help but take their eyes off it.
Blond hair and shining golden eyes drenched in melancholy.
He was a very handsome and cute handsome man with soft and smooth white jade-like skin and chubby cheeks.
…Although the problem was that he was only five or six years old.
“Yes? And why?”
Chop! With his voice, Horus raised both hands on his cheeks, his fingers curled up and his eyebrows furrowed.
It was an action to express my disapproval, but even that seemed like an infinitely cute action in the main body’s eyes.
‘Ah, I see.’
[Polymorph] is not a simple appearance change magic, but an ability that can become the race itself to be imitated.
Theoretically, it was a means to freely change the appearance regardless of race, gender, or age…
‘The skill level is insufficient.’
It’s been less than an hour since I just created an avatar.
Of course, there was no way he could handle the skill he had just acquired.
In addition, considering the potential of the ability, it might take longer than expected.
‘I can’t strengthen the individual skills of the avatar with ‘Strengthen Other Skills’.’
Therefore, all that was needed was time to master the skill.
Originally, abundant capital was a law that could advance even the necessary time.
Without hesitation, I opened the Karma Shop again and bought the ‘Elixir of Growth’.
The experiment with Hesperon and Howard had not yet been completed, but there were still 2 million points left anyway, so this was well worth the investment.
‘I have to feed Horus once. Putting aside the skill, maybe I can make it grow faster.’
And right after getting the product, I lightly browsed the menu thinking about how to use the remaining points—.
Any changes could be found.
“Uh?”
It was so impressive that it had no choice but to be deeply imprinted in my memory.
『XX Fragment of XXX that has become XX (29,700,000)』
There was a price change for an unknown product that was worth 30 million points.
