Everyone Is Young Except For Me

I suddenly felt a huge spark flowing through my entire body .  In an instant, the golden sparks surrounded me and drove away Mudur"s blood .  I could clearly see it despite my fading consciousness .

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," has started "Descent" . ]

Descent? Don"t tell me this guy? 

The mighty force that exploded seemed to crush the surroundings .  Meanwhile, Solar"s eyes next to me were changing to blue flames .  The enormous sun took the shape of a human and became a familiar figure I knew .  As Mudur"s blood fell down around me, Sven screamed with panic, “W-What is this? What have you done? Chwiiik!”

[Progress of becoming a b.l.o.o.d.y orc: 50%]

It stopped at exactly half .  However, that wasn"t the problem .

“Prometheus, you!”

“ . . . Don"t say it . It is pus.h.i.+ng hard at me right now . ”

The b.l.o.o.d.y river was splitting around the blue-eyed Solar, or to be precise, Prometheus who had descended into Solar"s body .  I barely landed on the ground . The blood-covered land felt damp and humid .

This guy . In order to save me . . .

d.a.m.n .

It had already started .  Iridescent sparks appeared over Prometheus" head .  I knew the ident.i.ty of this light .

“Breaking the taboo . ”

The constellations weren"t forbidden to appear in the human world because they existed to defend the human world .  However, G.o.ds were a bit different .  The G.o.ds could do great harm just being in the human world .

In the beginning, Gaia made a taboo to prevent it .  She made a tearful choice to limit the power of the G.o.ds to protect the humans .

“W-What is this?” Sven was motionless from terror .  He hadn"t expected this to happen . Indeed, it was the same for me so I could understand it .  This didn"t mean I could forgive him for backstabbing me .

“Prometheus, how long can you hold on?”

“Five minutes based on my current power . d.a.m.n, don"t talk to me . ”

I could feel the blood waves cras.h.i.+ng into the walls of fire around me .  The shaking of the fire told me it wouldn"t last long .  I had to finish this quickly .  I used Rising Sun and ran toward Sven .  Sven seemed to panic for a moment before moving his finger to attack me .  “Die!”

The cold energy that stretched out from his fingertips struck me .  It was the Death Blizzard spell but I wasn"t in the place where it hit .  I was heading to Drain"s location .  I pulled at the chain of darkness that connected Drain and Sven and could see the chains binding Drain unraveling .  I told him, “I"ll take it from here so run away . ”

“But . . . ”

“You will just get in the way if you"re here . ”

Drain bit his lip at my words .  Unfortunately, they were true .  He wouldn"t be helpful at all right now .  Rather, him being a hostage would only hinder me .  He told me, “Wait a bit . I will come back with Gyeonso Dragon and Sujeong . . . ”

“Grruk .  Die!”

Sven started to pour out magic .  The ice attacks were dominant but some fire, darkness, and curse magic were mixed in .  They were avoidable attacks but I had to face them .  If I didn"t stop it now, Drain would die .  “Go now!”

“Kuock, just wait a bit Buroder! Understood? Don wori!”

I couldn"t see the back of Drain running away .  Sven burst out laughing .  “Kuhaha! You are pretty good but it won"t last long! I will make you one with Mudur again . ”

He muttered something with his staff and the waves of blood that Prometheus was blocking moved toward me .  It stabbed in the shape of a sharp thorn .  It felt like it was alive .

“What nonsense . Truly . ”

I had to avoid Sven"s attacks and the indiscriminate attacks from the waves of blood at the same time .  It was just that my physical strength was already extremely low .  It was due to the ritual for Mudur"s resurrection .

[Your body isn"t normal at the moment . ]

[All stats have been reduced by half . ]

[You can only recover after sitting down for 5 minutes . ]

Rising Sun had increased by stats by two times so I could hold on, but I couldn"t avoid them all .  I bit my lip at the health that gradually fell .  At this moment, Prometheus" message was visible .

[You have received the apostle"s buff . ]

[All stats have increased by 50% . ]

“Prometheus, you . . . !”

“d.a.m.n, I wasted my star spirit . Three minutes! Finish it in three minutes!”

Maybe after this, Prometheus would have to sleep for a few days .  Breaking the taboo was a risk for G.o.ds .

“Hold on a little bit . ”

I used Sun Road to boost the sun energy of my entire body .  There was a sound like an engine exploding as I ran toward Sven .  I didn"t have much time .  I dodged a sharp icicle, ran past a dark sphere aiming at me, and ran through the various curse magic and awls of blood .  Sun Road, as Drain taught me, was the "road of the sun . "

“Become a pile of ashes . ”

I danced the path of the sun using my legs .  Every step of the way, pillars of the sun soared from my body like a dragon, enveloping him .

“Kueook!”

Sven"s figure could be seen through the hot smoke but he was fine .  He had taken some damage but he was still in a good state .

“What?” The next moment, I looked at the veil of blood that surrounded his body .  Sven had used Mudur"s blood and used it as a s.h.i.+eld .

“Grruk .  It was dangerous but this is it . ” He once again stretched out his staff and the curtain of blood protecting his body stabbed me like an awl .  

I couldn"t avoid the sudden attack so I had to catch the awl with both hands .

Prometheus screamed as he watched the awl that stopped in front of me .  “Old man!”

“Not yet . . . I"m okay .  Groan . ” 

I could only hear a bit of noise but I felt the inside of the cave shaking .  As expected, a G.o.d"s scream created a threat with just his voice alone .  My hands were stained with blood . I didn"t know if it was Mudur"s blood or my own .

“Chwiiik .  Tenacious b.a.s.t.a.r.d . . . ”

Other magic spheres were floating around Sven .  d.a.m.n, this was the real end .  I was already at the limit .  It was the same with Prometheus .  Even so, I couldn"t blindly give up .  I still had a lot of work to do .

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is asking if you remember the last hidden technique of Rising Sun . ]

“What? Why are you sending an indirect message?” The moment I turned my head and checked his body, I was forced to bite my lips .  The flames of the sun that formed Prometheus" body were gradually fading away .

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," says you have to do it from now on . ]

“What? This . . . ”

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is telling you to be quiet because this is the only way . ]

“You will consume more divinity if you use that . Then you . . . ”

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is telling you not to worry . ]

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is saying that he believes in you . ]

It was a sad echo . I looked at the message and couldn"t help blinking .  I looked at Prometheus" body and had no choice .  At this moment, the fire of the sun that formed Prometheus" body started to seep into my legs .  I had a dark feeling as I felt the growing power of the sun .  “I"m sorry, Prometheus . ” 

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is looking at you and laughing . ]

My face was full of sorrow as I looked back at Sven .  He was still staring at me with eyes full of desire .  “Kuhaha . Stupid guy! It is over! Chwiiik!”

At this moment, I stepped forward strongly with my right foot .  Prometheus disappeared while the wave of blood flooding toward me was once again blocked by a wall of fire .  It was a force Prometheus had been controlling earlier but this time it was a power that I controlled .  The magic Sven shot at me was unable to penetrate the flames of the sun surrounding my body .  It was the final hidden technique of Rising Sun, as all the sun energy in my body poured into a single attack .

“Let"s go, Prometheus . ” 

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is nodding . ]

I ignored the constant bombardment of Sven"s magic and danced the sad sun dance .  I had danced many sun dances but I had never been so sad .

Sven looked panicked when I didn"t fall down among the rain of constant attacks .  “T-This is ridiculous! Why . . . !”

I stared at him with a blank expression and opened my mouth, “The final hidden technique of Rising Sun . ” At this moment, the entire area burned .  The flames of the sun that soared from the ground took on a gigantic form, emitting a heat that seemed to be able to incinerate everything .  I looked down at Sven from amidst the blazing storm of fire .

Sven felt something sinister and stuttered, “T-This is impossible . Impossible . . . ”

The storm of flames became the shape of a giant dragon .  The moment I moved, the dragon"s head moved with me as I flew toward Sven .  Finally, the giant dragon"s mouth opened .  

“Sun Dragon . ”

The giant dragon"s mouth devoured Sven and started to turn him to ashes .  The sun dragon swallowed the cave that seemed like it was going to collapse .

“U-Uweeeeeeok! Ueeeeo . . . ” This was the end of Sven .  He vanished, leaving behind no trace of his existence .  The sun devoured even the ashes and made everything into nothing .

I ignored the message about leveling up and waited for Prometheus" indirect message .

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is looking at you . ]

The power of the sun was disappearing and I felt a deep sorrow .  This was a power originally not available to me .  It was a final technique that could only be used when Solar grew a bit more .  The present force was something that Prometheus had squeezed out using the last of his divinity .

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is gradually closing his eyes . ]

Once the power of the sun sweeping through my body had completely disappeared, my body became heavier .  Still, I looked up at the sky .  I wanted to hear his last words before he fell asleep .

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is asking you to take care of the rest . ]

“ . . . Yes . Don"t worry, I have the memories you gave me . ”

[The first apostle, "Prometheus," is smiling and nodding . ]

This was the final message .  Many words weren"t necessary .  I might not be as close to him as Alexus but now I know my bond with him had deepened .

[The G.o.d of fire and prophecy, "Prometheus," has consumed all his divinity . ]

[Prometheus has fallen into a fast sleep due to the Taboo Curse]

[Prometheus can"t wake up unless his divinity is restored . ]

[The b.l.o.o.d.y orc"s blood ritual has stopped . ]

“Dammit . . . ”

Prometheus had been caught by the Curse of Prohibition .  No G.o.ds, not even the primordial G.o.d Gaia, could avoid the forbidden curse .  It was the same even for the supreme G.o.d Jupiter, lying comfortably in his heavenly palace .  Then at this moment—

[Grruruk .  What is this body?]

Mudur"s voice could be heard .
