Chapter 273 – The King’s Path (3)
– Well…
Kang Woo spat vomit in his mouth. His wounds were healed thanks to the Authority of Restoration, but a cutting pain pierced his entire body from within.
– How painful…
Although he was used to torment for a long time, it was too much even for him. It seemed as if he had been run over by an excavator. Kang Woo shook his head.
“That’s why I put this method off until the last moment.”
Dangerously dangerous, but the pain was even worse. He was trembling all over in agony.
– You are good, – Pallock came up to him and held out water.
Although Kang Woo raised his hand to take the bottle, his palm trembled so much that he could hardly hold it.
Pallock put his healthy, pumped hand on Kang Woo’s head. His smile was more like the sophisticated grin of a serial killer.
– I’ll give you a drink.
– Just disappear…
– Ha ha ha, don’t be modest!
– No, bl…
– So, let’s quickly…
– A-ah! Infection! This smell…
– Oh, and you didn’t wipe the vomit off your face well.
– What? So, wipe it up quickly! – Kang Woo began to flounder in Pallock’s arms.
He chuckled.

– Don’t worry about me.
– What?!
– With our relationship…
– What are you talking about?
Kang Woo made another effort and escaped from Pallock’s embrace. He fell to the ground and crawled away from the big man, but soon bumped into something.
It was Echidna’s leg.
– A, Echidna. Help me a little, drive this fat man away, “the guy said wearily.
At that moment a drop fell on his forehead. Kang Woo pressed his lips together tightly and lifted his head up to look at Echidna. Transparent tears rolled down her cheeks and dripped down as she shivered.
Kang Woo sighed.
“Well…”
This was expected.
She tried to look normal and even smiled awkwardly, but you can’t just see rebirth without experiencing any emotion.
– Kang Woo… – she pulled him to her and hugged him tightly.
The guy smiled bitterly and stroked Echidna’s head.
– Mr. Kang Woo, this… – Alcyone turned pale and shivered too. – Was it a rebirth?.
– Yes, – the guy nodded heavily.
Rebirth.
A technique that allows you to control a large amount of Magi by Man Ma Jong’s doors open.
“Although this is not a technique.”
There was a great chance of screwing up when the door was opened. Simply put, this is a technique whereby you inflict heavy damage on yourself.
Kang Woo accidentally found out that with her with help you can subdue the Magi. At the moment when he almost died one day, he was reborn into nothingness in order to survive. In the comics, this is commonly referred to as “awakening.”
“Although there is still a risk of actually dying.”
If one day luck turns away from him, then death may indeed overtake him. However, up to this point, he had used the technique many times, and he continued to be lucky.
“But how painful it is…”
Perhaps he will never get used to these torments. The guy shook his head tiredly.
– And this is training?. – Echidna asked sobbing.
Kang Woo laughed bitterly. This, of course, is difficult to perceive as an ordinary workout.
“But, I had no choice.”
Regular training didn’t make sense to him. Of course, using the Great Powers or fighting them can gradually increase control over the Magi.
“But this takes too long.”
At this rate, it could take at least several years. So Kang Woo had no choice but to gather strength and endure this excruciating pain.
– It hurts, of course, but if to think so, it’s not so…
– Don’t lie! – shouted Echidna.
She stamped her foot, and at the same time the trembling body of Kang Woo flared up in her mind. His sobbing and screaming like beside itself with pain image.
Is it just pain? No. Pain is everything.
How determined you need to be to take such a step and voluntarily cut, tear your whole body to perform some technique. Echidna hugged Kang Woo again and groaned.
Now her words that she also trains seemed too naive and childish to her.
– Kang Woo… – she touched the guy’s cheek.
How painful it must be for him.
“This is the way the Master walked”, – she remembered Pallock’s words.
Echidna knew a lot about Kang Woo’s past life.
He passed Hell from the thousandth to the nine thousandth circle. He declared war on the Arcduke’s and rewrote the history of the Nine Thousandth Circle of Hell.
– I … I didn’t know…
Tears continued to roll down her cheeks.
She knew Kang Woo as a firm, decisive, and confident person in their actions. Therefore, of course…
– I could not imagine that you lived like that.
It was unimaginable to her.
She thought Kang Woo – this is the one who, with a smile on his face, can defeat any Arcduke, and for him this did not pose any danger or pain.
But his path was not paved with white stone and prepared in advance. He didn’t look cool and untouchable. Didn’t deal with enemies in one or two hits, as comic characters do.
Low.
Dirty.
Pathetic.
He floundered with all his might to survive, to protect what he has.
This is how he lived.
– I’m sorry…
Echidna did not understand exactly why she was apologizing, but the crushing feeling of guilt did not give her peace. She did not know about his painful past and it choked her.
– Uh-uh-uh… – Kang Woo exhaled and looked at Pallock.
“That’s why I didn’t want them to come with us.”
The fact remained the fact – he lived a disgusting life. And this is certainly not what he wanted to focus the attention of others on.
“The King’s Way… that’s bullshit.”
He hated Pallock, who stirred up the water. Why do this on purpose?
– Well, why did you follow me?.
Kang Woo patted Echidna on the back and a slight smile touched his lips.
In fact, he was in a good mood. And how can it be bad when they are so sincerely worried about you?
– I felt better, – the guy got up and turned around.
Remains of pain disappeared.
“Well…”
He closed his eyes and checked. The magi climbed easily.
“The effect is certainly deadly.”
The greater the risk, the greater the gain. Since he risked his life, the reward was great.
He felt that the amount of Magi he could actually use had increased.
“But…” he clicked his tongue. “This is not enough.”
Once was not enough to deal with the Belphegor Magi.
“But a little more and everything will work out.”
in fact, the effect was even better than he expected. And all thanks to the rest at home.
“I wish it would happen again…”
Then I wouldn’t have to endure all this torment.
– Pallock, you need one more time.
– Not enough yet?.
– A little more needed.
Since he can deal with Magi by opening Man Ma Jung’s doors, he must use it.
“Because there are no other options.”
Simply by risking his life, he got a lot. All you had to do was open the door.
– No! – Alcyone immediately ran up to him and shook her head. – Are you… are you going to do it again?!
– One time is not enough.
At least repeat the technique two or three times. And if you have enough strength, then all five.
“Ah, it’s even scary to imagine.”
Survive this horror five times.
“Just thinking about I want to die right away.”
He was shaking. He tried to look like everything was fine, but he could hardly succeed. It seemed to him that he was about to vomit from thinking about another portion of torment.
And the method is not the safest. Even if he manages to withstand the pain, it is not a fact that he will survive.
– No! I … I will try harder! Please don”t… – Alcyone cried.
Kang Woo knew that this would be the case and touched his forehead with his hand. Alcyone has grown claws.
– If you decide to do this… then I will also experience this pain with you.
“What are you talking about?”
– Ah-ah-ah!
– Fuck!
She stepped back and pierced her leg with her claws.
“God!”
Was it really necessary to go that far? Kang Woo looked at Alcyone blankly.
– You must not suffer!
So what is this?
Kang Woo sighed and Pallock walked up to them.
– Sir, can I take a break for a few days?
– Several days?
– Yes. I am not stopping you, but since we have time, we shouldn’t risk so much.
– Mmm… and yet…
– Doesn’t the risk increase because you are going to do this several times in a row?
Kang Woo pressed his lips together tightly.
“He’s right, there is no need to take risks and overexert himself.”
Plus, it doesn’t look like Baulli is going to do anything anytime soon. So staying in good physical condition will be the right decision.
– Good. Then let’s do it every three days.
In the meantime, he can practice manipulating the Power of Satan.
– Fuh, – Pallock exhaled with relief.
“We’ve lost too much.”
Only one phrase was spinning in my mind, and a lump stood in my throat.
“One day, when it’s over, I hope you can be happy.”
Pallock smiled sadly and looked up at the sky.
***
– Fuh, Fuh.
He completed his fifth transformation after twenty days.
– Great! Kang Woo laughed.
The guy felt like Magi was completely under his control. He concentrated Belphegor’s Power and absorbed it.
[You ate Arcduke of Sloth Belphegor]
[Special ability “Reaper of soul” activated]
[Special ability “Great Great Slayer” activated]
[You can use the Power of the Great Demon Belphegor “Immobility”]
“That’s it,” Kang Woo smiled.
[Magi increased to 154 units]
He hasn’t seen a notification like this in a while.
“Now I get only four units of Magi for the Great One.”
But it doesn’t really matter. The most significant is…
[By increasing control over Magi, you get the special ability of SSS “Lord of the Magi”]
[You can change Magi to Mark and Holiness]
[You can use Magi at a distance. However, the further the distance, the less the effect]
The guy clenched his fists.
This he could not have foreseen. Now he, as a true follower of Tyrion, will be able to radiate Holiness.
And the use of Magi at a distance?
“Isn’t that great?”
Now he can use the Blade Power, which was based on a physical body, at a distance.
“And Inferno can use away. And also…”
Kang Woo stretched out his arms.
He saw a hand-sized lizard about twenty meters away. Thanks to Kang Woo, she immediately lit up and began to radiate a strong Magi. Now she looked like a small, but at the same time terrifying dragon.
The guy exchanged Magi for holy power. He is not a deceiver at all, he really fights in the name of the Light.
– Oh, how I like it! – He laughed.

Mann, I could hardly imagine how he does that Ribirth Thing??
Since it has question marks, I’ll assume it’s not rhetorical.
Opening the door drags out the power, a power which can change his body into a mass of magi covered in mouths that endlessly consume. What he is doing is opening the door and guiding the power to recreate his body. His body is shredded by the massive amount of violent magi and healed by the magi, so the result is that he forcibly adapts his body. A comparison could be drawn with muscle growth, which requires damage/fatigue followed by healing that leaves the muscle stronger. The difference is that this is a 1000 times more intense in speed, pain, damage, and results.
As for how he withstands the pain, MC tier will power.
