Chapter 98: A Disappointing Test

    “Hmm, so this is psionic energy.”


    Yujin felt the new energy that had settled in his body, separate from his magical power.


    It’s simr to magical power, but still a bit weak for now.


    He wondered if he could produce a simr level of power to the de monster he had seen earlier with this.


    ‘Can I grow it further from here?’


    Yujin headed to the training room to run some tests.


    A spacious training ground with walls, ceiling, and floor covered in a 1-meter thickyer of Elftenium, the strongest metal.


    Here, attacks powerful enough to destroy an average spaceship are possible.


    “Lightning Storm!”Yujin first drew upon his magical power to use a spell simr to the psionic storm.


    Crash!


    Lightning struck with tremendous force, scorching the Elftenium ck.


    There were even parts that had slightly melted or been destroyed and fallen off.


    An attack powerful enough to destroy Elftenium in an instant is truly formidable.


    But this level is still not enough to make a state-of-the-art space battleship,pletely covered in Elftenium, even flinch.


    ‘With a magic amplification device, it might be possible, but…’


    That should be saved as ast resort.


    Once used, even if you survive, you’d bepletely immobilized for about 1-2 weeks.


    “Alright, next…”


    This time, he decided to test the use of the psionic energy injected into his mind.


    ‘The basic operation method is the same as magical power.’


    The difference, however, is that it needs to be connected to the cosmic maic field spread throughout the universe to amplify its power.


    ‘This is difficult.’


    He managed to move the psionic energy without much difficulty.


    But perhaps due to the sma shield surrounding the ship, the influence of the cosmic maic field inside was too faint.


    ‘Still, there was a gain.’


    If there was something he gained, it’s that when he tries to draw upon and use psionic energy, he can see the movement of the cosmic maic field.


    The cosmic maic field isn’t just a simple maic field.


    It means he can see the flow of electromaic force, one of the four forces spread throughout this universe.


    This would be good for finding direction when lost in space.


    It also means being able to predict unseen anomalous space environments in advance.


    ‘It’s not just an increase in power. This is an incredible discovery that can elerate space navigation and cosmic research.’


    He wanted to immediately order this power to be injected into all talented personnel, but the research results were still insufficient for that.


    “Then we’ll have to create them, the research results.”


    Yujin grinned and informed the exploration crew.


    “Open the hatch. I need to go outside for a moment.”


    He meant to go out into space.


    #


    “It’s too dangerous! And what’s this? You just epted an unverified power?!”


    “There haven’t been any side effects so far. Don’t worry.”


    “They might appearter!”


    Lowie Hendrick shouted angrily, but Yujin paid no attention.


    He was simply looking forward to going out into space and testing the cosmic maic field with his own hands.


    Like his original self, he too had a personality that greatly enjoyed exploring the unknown.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll be careful ande back. Just make sure to keep the shields up in case there’s any impact.”


    “…Sigh, how can I stop you?”


    In the end, Lowie Hendrick gave up and raised his hands.


    He knew he couldn’t stop Yujin’s exploratory spirit.


    So Yujin put on a mana energy space suit that looked like a thin membrane and went out into space.


    The mana suit, which can essentially recover infinitely as long as magical power is supplied, and its strength varies depending on the wearer’s magical power. ?????ò?ě§


    Since Yujin was wearing it, there was no need to worry about external impacts as it could be considered to have the defense capability of a decent spaceship.


    The only concern was the psionic energy.


    Would he be hurt by the effects of that energy?


    Lowie Hendrick and the exploration crew watched the space outside with anxious hearts.


    And then.


    sh!


    There was no sound because it was in space.


    A silently shing light.


    But everyone could tell that this light was not ordinary.


    The tremendous light of cosmic lightning caused by an intense electromaic storm.


    It was a sess.


    Anyone could see it was the psionic storm that the de monster had shown.


    “Wow….”


    “That madman… he really did it.”


    “B-but he just gained that power.”


    “As expected of Master Yujin.”


    Words of admiration flowed from people’s mouths.


    An output simr to that of the de monster who had honed its skills for a lifetime, despite just having acquired the power.


    It was a perfect debut of psionic energy.


    Whoosh─


    While people were eximing in admiration, Yujin, who had finished testing his power, opened the hatch and came in.


    “Congrattions, Master Yujin. You’ve seeded in the test.”


    “That was amazing.”


    “As expected of Master Yujin!”


    People apuded and cheered, saying it was incredible.


    But Yujin himself wore a slightly dissatisfied expression.


    “…? What’s wrong?”@@novelbin@@


    When Lowie Hendrick asked, puzzled, Yujin sighed deeply and answered.


    “It’s weaker than I thought. I can’t produce the same level of performance that guy showed.”


    Yujin was disappointed.


    His power was certainly strong.


    Butpared to the de monster, it felt slightlycking.


    If the de monster was grade 12, he would be around grade 10-11.


    He was disappointed that the performance didn’t meet his expectations.


    “……”


    “……”


    People were either dumbfounded by this sight or impressed by his attitude of continually striving for greater heights.


    They thought that this level of ambition might be necessary to upy the highest position in the Gctic Union.


    ‘No, let’s not give up hope. Maybe I can grow it like magical power.’


    Yujin thought this way, trying to shake off his disappointment.


    #


    [ What a crazy bastard. ]


    Seeing Yujin’s dissatisfied expression, I couldn’t help but curse under my breath.


    What the hell is there to be dissatisfied about?


    Since I didn’t put any restrictions on Yujin’s abilities, he naturally acquired grade 12 psionic energy.


    However, right now he’s just awakened his power, so it’s not fully activated yet.


    In other words, this guy expected 100% output right after waking up and being told to work.


    And on top of that, because he can’t perform at 100%, he’smenting that his ability is only this much!


    Well, fine.


    Whether he thinks of gradually awakening his abilities as growth or not, that’s Yujin’s business.


    As expected, it’s grade 12, huh.


    Was it unnecessary to say I wouldn’t put any restrictions?


    No, no.


    This level is needed to stand a chance.


    The Gctic Union’s forces withmercialized psionic energy, and Yujin, the strongest life form with grade 12 psionic energy.


    Even if the Transcendent creates five grade 12 de monsters at a time, with this power, we have quite a good chance.


    If Yujin takes on two of them, and the rest push forward with the mothership, gradually wearing them down… it’s quite doable, isn’t it?


    [ Hmm…. Things are getting interesting again. ]


    It was good that I didn’t interfere after all.


    I almost couldn’t stop myself from unnecessarily meddling, trying to bnce patch things.


    Now all that’s left is to enjoy watching the fight.


    Ah, but there’s still a lot of time left for that.


    The Transcendent has gone into hiding to build up strength, and the Gctic Union is still researching psionic energy.


    Then I should go y somewhere else for a while.


    I feel like seeing a different world setting after a long time.


    Let’s see, which world setting should I look at this time?


    Creating apletely new one might be good too.


    Fantasy, hunter stories, apocalypse, academy… I feel like I’ve done most of them.


    Wuxia? Should I try wuxia once?


    Ah, but I’m a bit weak in wuxia… Of course, there are many wuxia-like world settings in the countless universes.


    No, it would be more urate to say there are infinitely many.


    Anyway, that’s why I have a lot of knowledge.


    But that’s knowledge gained from bing an outer god, not memories from when I was human.


    Although that’s also ultimately created memories, anyway, since there are no injected memories of reading with human emotions, I might end up viewing the wuxia world from an extremely objective and outer god-like perspective.


    That’s why I’ve kind of intentionally avoided it… but honestly, I’ve tried most things, so I can’t not try wuxia, right?


    Let’s try to create one by pulling knowledge from here and there!


    The world setting, protagonist, and overall story flow won’t be that different from fantasy anyway.


    Wouldn’t it be enough to just have cool martial arts technique names and a Heavenly Demon…?


    Yeah, if there’s a Heavenly Demon, it’s wuxia.


    Alright, alright.


    #


    A hundred years ago, there was a being who brought a terrible bloodstorm to the Central ins.


    His name was Baek Hwi.


    However, he was even more famous for his alias than his real name.


    “Heavenly Demon….”


    The leader of the righteous faction standing before him called out that alias with sharp eyes.


    Blood of the Central ins’ masters dripping from the red robe soaked with enemies’ blood and the ckened long sword.


    The owners of that bloody scattered in pieces all around.


    Ake of blood.


    With that much blood, it should have stained even the horse-tail hair tied back,


    Yet his hair was flowing cleanly as if just seen for the first time.


    And beneath that hair was the face of a man so fair and beautiful that it was hard to believe he was the one who caused this catastrophe.


    A visage that could make countless women weep.


    But his eyes were filled with a madness hungry for blood, and his mouth was twisted into a smile.


    A demon descended from heaven.


    A demon king so vast as to cover the sky.


    The god of the demonic cult.


    Everyone called him by this name: the Heavenly Demon.
